BASEBALL: Blue Jays' J.A. Happ hit in head by line drive, rushed to hospital
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- It was a sickening sound.
A line drive that hit J.A. Happ in the head so hard the "thwack!" could be heard up in the press box.
And then, silence.
Desmond Jennings' second-inning liner caromed squarely off the left side of Happ's head, and the Blue Jays pitcher was taken off the field on a stretcher during Toronto's 6-4 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night.
The team said Happ was taken to Bayfront Medical Center, where he was alert and undergoing tests. Nursing supervisor Natasha Keller told The Associated Press that Happ had been admitted to the hospital and was in stable condition.
"I think the last indication was that he was alert and feeling better and had gone for a CT scan. That's the last I heard," Toronto pitcher R.A. Dickey said.
The ball went all the way into the bullpen in foul territory halfway down the right-field line. Happ dropped face down at the front of the mound, holding his head with his glove and bare hand.
Jennings ended up on third base with a two-run triple. Team trainers, paramedics and medical officials rushed to Happ's aid as Tropicana Field fell into a hush.
"It's devastating. ... I could barely watch it," Dickey said. "You just don't know what to think, really. It paralyzes you a little bit. And when it sounds like two bats, when you hear the sound off the bat and it sounds like it hits another bat, it's scary. It's really, really scary. I just started praying in the spot. That's all I knew to do."
Jennings stood with his hands on his head, and other players were visibly concerned as they watched Happ receive medical attention for about eight minutes.
"I just saw it come off the bat hot, and when it hit him I knew it hit him hard," said Ryan Roberts, who was in the on-deck circle for Tampa Bay. "I instantly started praying for him. That's a situation you never want to see. It's unfortunate. I hope he recovers and hope he's back pitching as soon as possible. That's something in a game you hate to see."
Jennings left the clubhouse without speaking to reporters.
Toronto manager John Gibbons stood on the mound as Happ was strapped to a backboard and immobilized. The left-hander was lifted onto a stretcher and wheeled off the field through an opening behind home plate.
"That was a real scary moment," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "That was awful. I hope that he's well."
Just before he disappeared under the stands, Happ raised his right hand and waved. He received a standing ovation from the crowd, and the game resumed after an 11-minute delay.
Happ's injury was the latest to a pitcher struck by a batted ball during the last few years, and Major League Baseball has discussed ways to protect hurlers on the mound.
"We are actively meeting with a number of companies that are attempting to develop a product, and have reviewed test results for several products," MLB spokesman Pat Courtney told the AP in an email after Happ was injured Tuesday night. "Some of the products are promising. No company has yet developed a product that has satisfied the testing criteria."
Oakland right-hander Brandon McCarthy was hit in the head by a line drive last September, causing a skull fracture, an epidural hemorrhage and a brain contusion that required surgery. He was released from the hospital six days later.
Not long after Happ was injured Tuesday night, McCarthy's wife, Amanda, tweeted: "Thoughts go out to Happ and his family. Such a scary moment."
Major league general managers discussed the issue during their meetings in November and MLB presented several ideas at baseball's winter meetings only weeks later.
MLB staff have said a cap liner with Kevlar, the high-impact material used by military, law enforcement and NFL players for body armor, is among the ideas under consideration.
The liners, weighing perhaps five ounces or less, would go under a pitcher's cap and help protect against line drives that often travel over 100 mph.
MLB could implement the safety change in the minor leagues, as it did a few seasons ago with batting helmets, but would require the approval of the players' union to make big leaguers wear them.
Brad Lincoln replaced Happ, who gave up four runs -- all in the second -- and five hits in 1 1-3 innings.
Several players around the majors tweeted their thoughts and prayers for Happ and his family.
"Take for granted how fast this sport can be, Especially for players that close. No reaction time!" Dodgers infielder Jerry Hairston Jr. wrote.
Happ began spring training without a spot in Toronto's projected rotation. He earned a starting role when the Blue Jays left struggling Ricky Romero behind in Florida to work on mechanics when the season began.
Happ was obtained by Toronto in a trade with Houston last July 20. He was placed on the disabled list Sept. 7 and missed the rest of the season due to a broken right foot.
The Blue Jays grabbed a 6-4 lead in the ninth on Maicer Itzuris' solo homer and an RBI double by Melky Cabrera off Joel Peralta (0-2). Toronto, which trailed by three early on, tied it at 4 in the eighth on Jose Bautista's RBI double.
Toronto was coming off an 8-7 victory over the Rays on Monday night in which the Blue Jays rallied from a 7-0 deficit.
Adam Lind put the Blue Jays up 1-0 in the second on his first homer this season. Cody Rasmus cut the deficit to 4-3 on a two-run homer in the seventh.
"It took us a few innings to regroup," Lind said. "The energy in the dugout was very sad and we weren't really in the mood. I think that was obvious, and then we got some hits and got our minds off things that were bad and got our minds pointed in the right direction."
Steve Delabar (3-1) threw two scoreless innings before Casey Janssen pitched the ninth for his ninth save. The Blue Jays have won three in a row for the first time this season.
Tampa Bay starter Roberto Hernandez went six innings, allowing one run and five hits. He had seven strikeouts and one walk.
Maddon was ejected in the second for arguing by plate umpire Marty Foster prior to Happ getting hurt.
Foster ruled that Sean Rodriguez's hand missed the plate as he tried to score from third during a slide on Jose Molina's bunt. Maddon was tossed after swiping his hand across the plate where the manager thought Rodriguez had touched it.
Foster also threw out Edwin Encarnacion after the Toronto first baseman struck out to end the ninth. NOTES: Rays RF Ben Zobrist rejoined the team after missing two games following the death of his grandmother. ... Toronto secured at least a split in the four-game set, which snapped Tampa Bay's streak of winning 17 straight home series against the Blue Jays. ... A group of injured Toronto pitcher rehabbing at the team's complex in nearby Dunedin were at the ballpark.

Emerging practice sees off strong field of contenders in competition to design residential-led scheme at 19th century sea fortress on Isle of Wight
More from: Stitch Studio lands Fort Albert scheme
Stitch Studio has won the high-profile contest to redevelop Fort Albert on the Isle of Wight. The upcoming practice beat AR Design Studio, Architecture Initiative, Bristol-based Barlow Henley, Fletcher Priest, Gollifer Langston, James Armitage, Sheppard Architects and Moxon to land the coveted residential-led job.
Stitch's 'Monks View' scheme, featuring quayside homes, was deemed 'best in terms of architecture, sympathy with the adjacent fort, accommodation provision, buildability and commercial viability'.
Stitch director Sally Lewis said she looked 'forward to developing [the] design proposals to create an elegant addition to the Fort Albert coastline'.
More than 70 entries were submitted to the contest, organised by developers Cleanslate and Bellbrae.
Cleanslate managing director Mark Fitzpatrick said: 'The next step is to consult with the Isle of Wight planners, who, we hope, will agree with our choice of design to replace the extant planning permission on the site.'
Stitch Studio lands Fort Albert scheme
Readers' comments (1)
I do not wish to be argumentative but what happened to the actual definition of the proposed area for the site. This solution and others demonstrated appear to be infringing on the adjacent property, overlapping and articulating with the old fort.
We obviously have different opinions as to what is traditional and what is innovative. I wish you luck with your preferred solution.

The Mavs took Samaki Walker ninth overall in 1996, between Kerry Kittles and Erick Dampier, four picks before Kobe Bryant, and six before Steve Nash. Walker hasn't seen any NBA game action since December 2005, so you don't need Jay Bilas to point out that he's a bust. He's played in Russia, Syria, China, and South Korea since washing out of the NBA.
But most busts don't provide us with such entertaining arrests:
After being pulled over in his 2002 Mercedes-Benz during a routine traffic stop in Kingman (Ariz.), Walker attempted to eat eight grams of marijuana before he was arrested.
Officials seized a total of approximately 10 grams of marijuana, in addition to some prescription drugs and eight bottles of liquid steroids.
Walker still plays professional basketball for Al-Jalaa Aleppo in Syria, where he said that steroids are legal. Unfortunately for him, they are illegal in Arizona and he was charged with a misdemeanor.
But isn't the saddest part of this story actually "2002 Mercedes-Benz?"

Free 2-Day Shipping & Free Returns! Details
For a game based on tradition, golf has done an excellent job of adapting to modern technology. GPS golf watches are a great example of this concept. This is a piece of technology that is subtle—from a distance, it looks just like a regular watch—yet it actually transforms the experience of playing golf in a significant way. Rather than wandering the fairway in search of a yardage, you can simply glance down at your wrist, get your range, and proceed with the shot. Once you have experienced a round of golf with a GPS golf watch on your arm, you'll wonder why you waited so long to make this purchase.
Many golfers pursue a better game by spending money on things like drivers, putters, wedges, and more. While there's nothing wrong with building a set of great equipment, a golf GPS watch is a piece of the puzzle that should not be overlooked. It's extremely important to have accurate distances to your targets while playing golf, and these powerful devices will provide you with all the info you need.
PlayBetter is proud to carry the best golf GPS watches on the market. Are you looking for a model from an industry leader like Garmin, or Bushnell? No problem. You'll find a number of options from both of these respected brands here on our site. As always, we offer great prices and excellent customer service on all orders. By spending just a little bit of time exploring our options, you should be able to find a watch that has all the features you want at a price you love. Thanks for stopping by!

Society (SPCS) members donated $4,950 in 2010 towards the printing of multiple copies of John Bunyan's classic work – The Pilgrim's Progress, and donated $5,245 in 2011: – a total of $10,195 donated over two years (see advertisement for donations on homepage of website). In addition SPCS has raised thousands of dollars from non-members towards this Books in Prisons project via an effective advertising campaign through its newsletters. Donations were used just for printing costs.
The Society has arranged and paid for the distribution of hundreds of the books to prisoners in all 20 NZ prisons. Within the last two weeks it dispatched 26 copies to the Otago Corrections Facility and 20 copies for distribution to the Christchurch Mens Prision.
One prison chaplain recently reported that once word is out that the books are available within the prison, they "fly off the shelf" – snapped up by prisoners seeking spiritual answers found a book that chronicles in timeless allegory the journey of a man – Pilgrim – from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City of God (Heaven).
Pilgrim's burden of guilt and shame for his sin is lifted from him at the Cross of Christ where he finds forgiveness, God-given faith and the new joy and hope that is the fruit of a true conversion to the Lord Jesus Christ – and is accompanied by genuine repentance.
Author John Bunyan wrote the book while serving time in prison himself and the work is a truly creative expression of his own spiritual journey. It is deeply and richly ingrained with the biblical insights and wisdon he gained after he became a committed believer and follower of Jesus Christ.
The Society executive wishes to thank all its members and others who have contributed so generously towards this Books for Prisoners Project. The work is ongoing and we are heartened by your support and the positive feedback we have received from those working with prisoners who have gained access to the books (Prison Fellowship, Chaplaincy Services etc).
This project in part serves to fulfill the Society's primary charitable purpose: the promotion of the spiritual and moral welfare of society. In addition it constitutes a public benefit (i.e. it is beneficial to the community) in a number of self-evident ways (e.g. education and/or rehabilitation of prisoners, relief and/or redemption of prisoners, and aiding the poor etc).
In order to be considered charitable as "any other matters beneficial to the community", purposes must be beneficial to the community and must be within the spirit and intendment of the purposes set out in the Preamble to The Charitable Uses Act 1601 (the Statute of Elizabeth).
The purposes must benefit the community in a way that the law regards as charitable. The Books for Prisoners Project most definitely qualifies as such and has been positively commended by officials of the Charities Commission when they have met with SPCS executive members on two occasions at the Charities Commission Offices in Wellington.

Last month we told you about the special edition Italian Shooting Brake that would be on all of the Christmas lists of whoever actually buys exotic cars from luxury department store catalogs. Upon going on sale the 10 limited edition Neiman Marcus Ferrari FF's were sold out within 50 minutes.
It seems the extra $95,000 of the special edition FF's $395,000 price tag may have made impulse buyers think for a few minutes about the decision to purchase a Ferrari from a catalogue. Last year the company offered a special edition Camaro in their Christmas book. All 100 examples sold within the first three minutes they were on sale.
Perhaps the best reason to purchase a Ferrari FF is that buyers will be cutting the wait time for delivery of their new FF. While those who bought an FF from a dealer could be waiting up to two years for delivery, the Neiman Marcus shooting brakes will be delivered in the spring of 2012.
Catalogue Ferrari buyers will get special paint on their cars and a commemorative plaque inside it. Also included in the package is a trip to the Ferrari Winter Driving Experience in Aspen, CO. Nothing was mentioned about a special edition fire extinguisher.

Just when I thought my lash perm experience couldn't get worse – it did.
So there I was, innocently watching this god awful film, The Break Up, where Jennifer Anison plays Rachel from Friends and Vince Vaughn plays himself…and my eye begins to water a little. I give it a rub, just a gentle one, then dab away the moisture. And what do I see?
My eyelashes. Lots of them. Little skinny black things, all over my hand. I count them…ooh about 7. Seven lashes had snapped off (and not even at the root). Which means I'll have lots of stubby bits all my lash line and what worries me more is that they will all snap off.
Eek. Hold me. I'm scared.

Basketball great Manute Bol dies in Charlottesville
The tallest man ever to play in the NBA, Manute Bol, died unexpectedly Saturday, and it happened at the UVA Medical Center.
15 comments
Sadly, I read that if Mr.Bol had returned to the US sooner and received top drawer medical care more quickly, then he may not have passed from this.
He will not be here on Earth to raise his newborn child.
People of every age do die every day. We like to believe that only the elderly die, because it makes passing through our everyday lives seem easier. In reality, each day could be our last. Adults without known medical issues drop every day, of the flu, or of unknown heart arrhythmias, as do children.
"Stay Alert": You really do not know what you are talking about. There is noting going on at UVA that is out of the ordinary. His care was top notch. That is why he was flown here from his native country.
"Honoree": Great words.
Are you suggesting that the Casteen Cloaking Device has prevented the Hook from reporting on Bol's offensive limitations on the basketball court because of his connection with U.Va. Hospital? It wouldn't be more of a stretch than some of the troll's claims.
A rather tall friend of mine told me today that really tall people have shorter life spans in general. Something about the heart's long term ability to keep up with the volume of muscles and such..
RIP Manute.
He was a great man. Rest In Peace, Manute!
Stay Alert-Humans do not come with an expiration date. People get sick and die every day, some a lot younger than Mr. Bol. As reported by Newsplex yesterday:
"Sudan Sunrise executive director Tom Prichard says in an e-mail that the 7-foot-6 Bol died Saturday morning at the University of Virginia Hospital in Charlottesville. He died of complications from Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, a rare skin condition contracted after a reaction to a medication he had taken in Africa."
Definition of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome from mayoclinic.com
"Stevens-Johnson syndrome is a rare, serious disorder in which your skin and mucous membranes react severely to a medication or infection. Often, Stevens-Johnson syndrome begins with flu-like symptoms, followed by a painful red or purplish rash that spreads and blisters, eventually causing the top layer of your skin to die and shed.
Stevens-Johnson syndrome is an emergency medical condition that usually requires hospitalization. Treatment focuses on eliminating the underlying cause, controlling symptoms and minimizing complications."
I would say Mr. Bol did not have a very pleasant last few weeks of his life. Whether he was an NBA great or an average player, he should be granted the grace of not having his death become a part of a conspiracy or UVA bashing session. The man died from complications of a serious condition. Happens every day. RIP.
No one should die at 48. Something must be going on in the Charlottesville hospital!
Max Brando -
On what planet do you spend most of your time? NOTHING in the posting by The Hook related to Bol's talents or skills as a player. It did, however, reference his height, which is a measurable that is not denied.
What's your problem?
Max -
Okay, he wasn't a hall of fame talent. His greatness came after he left the court, and it's a shame he never got the Nobel Peace Prize.
A couple links:
and http://www.kansascity.com/2010/05/29/1980177/manute-bol-deserves-more-re...
Rest in peace, Manute. He was a charitable man who was deeply committed to improving the lives of the Sudanese people. In that sense, he was a father figure to many, many Sudanese. On this Father's Day, we might take a moment to say a prayer or think a pleasant thought about a man who thought of others more than he thought of himself -- a rare disposition.
Oh, and he invented and popularized the phrase "my bad".
Bol was only an average ballplayer, certainly not a great one, ask anyone who has knowledge of the NBA. And, by the by, check his stats, which you omit entirely. Your publication is much too effusive with its praise of others. No wonder the Hook's judgemet is so suspect.
He was a greater man than any NBA great likely ever will be. Anyone who jokes about this ought to look in the mirror and ask yourself what you've done for anyone other than yourself lately--he was a brilliant man of charity. There are countless articles--and even a book--about what he did for his homeland.
When I hear things like this, I wonder if doctors do more harm than good overall.
If you stop rising to the bait, the fisherman will find a different pond

Spectrum wrote:Wow, just wow!
I did a quick flip through of the thread and continue to be amazed at how wide the variety is. Some of my favorite characters from M&M, HERO and Heroes Unlimited have been done. I'm sure that I'm missing the reference on many of the others. I'm really curious to see what's coming next.
I've added this thread to my list of must reads.
Well thanks for the kind words. I've tried to put together an interesting gathering of criminals, heroes & ner-do-wells for those playing in my games to interract with. Granted the characters might not be the same as they were in their original state but I like to think I've used them in a good way.
Glad you like it and hope I can continue to impress you.
And just to share where I've picked up a good portion of the the characters so far:
They've come from Super Unicorn's CROOKS! book, Palladium's Heroes Unlimited (Gramercy Island, Century Station & Villains Unlimited to be specific), Champions: New Millennium as well as some other Champions books I've picked up over the years (and heard of thanks to Crinos' setting thread here on the ATT), some of M&M's 1st edition characters, along with the Algernon Files, and M&M's Paragons stuff.

Who Am I To Say The Night Lyrics
Who am I to say the night is kicked? did I decide to side with you I'm tying one more on tonite. this last call has sent us all spilling out onto the streets we jump in cabs we grab our arms and split. you give me eyes to make a move I'm thinking did I ask for you? I have no choice I'm bringing my mistake. Do I have to rely the message I'm okay with this I took my drink and took you in with it. how many blackout nights will we leave sleep far behind and fuck and fight? our bodies never far behind. this light will lead you home when it's all we've got to go on I will go on til I've seen your way back through. we dance with every step. a graceful trance we stalk the streets and sing our songs aloud. so screw em if they shout we're only young as long as it may take to think things out.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. economy contracted at a much steeper pace in the first quarter than previously estimated, turning in one of its worst-ever non-recession performances, but growth already appears to have rebounded strongly.
The Commerce Department said on Wednesday gross domestic product fell at a 2.9 percent annual rate, the sharpest decline in five years, instead of the 1.0 percent pace it had reported last month.
"It's a scary report. It sounds worrisome, but keep in mind job growth is running 200,000 each of the last four months, so we aren't just whistling in the dark in our optimism over the outlook," said Chris Rupkey, chief financial economist at Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ in New York.
The economy was held back by an unusually cold winter, the expiration of long-term unemployment benefits and cuts to food stamps, which curbed consumer spending. It was also weighed down by a slowdown in the pace of restocking by businesses.
All these temporary factors have since faded, lifting growth early in the second quarter.
The government's gauge of first-quarter growth has been lowered by 3.0 percentage points since the first estimate in April showed the economy expanded at a 0.1 percent rate, and revision between the May and June release was the largest on records going back to 1976.
Economists had expected the revision to show the economy shrinking at a rate of only 1.7 percent. Given the sharp downgrade, growth this year could struggle to reach 2 percent.
Investors shrugged off the weak data and bought U.S. stocks. Prices for U.S. Treasury debt were up at mid-day, while the dollar was marginally weaker against a basket of currencies.
The latest GDP revision reflected a weaker pace of healthcare spending than previously assumed, which led to a cut in the figure for consumer spending to show the slowest rise since the fourth quarter of 2009. Trade was also a bigger drag on the economy than previously thought.
The economy grew at a 2.6 percent pace in the final three months of 2013, and second-quarter growth estimates range as high as a 4.0 percent rate. The lofty growth expectations were supported by other data on Wednesday showing activity in the services sector hitting a 4-1/2 year high in June.
While a decline in bookings for defense capital goods and civilian aircraft sank orders for long-lasting U.S. manufactured goods in May, according to a third report, businesses spending plans rebounded from April's slump. That suggested a steady pick-up in business investment, a crucial ingredient for sustained economic growth.
There were also increases in order backlogs and inventories.
"Outside the defense realm, orders are moving up, shipments are moving up, and inventory gains are returning. That is the precise recipe for production and job gains," said Michael Montgomery, a U.S. economist at IHS Global Insight in Lexington, Massachusetts.
In the first quarter, growth in consumer spending, which accounts for more than two-thirds of U.S. economic activity, was lowered to a 1.0 percent rate from a 3.1 percent pace.
Exports fell at a 8.9 percent rate, the biggest drop in five years, instead of a 6.0 percent pace. That resulted in a trade deficit that sliced off 1.53 percentage points from GDP growth.
Other drags to first-quarter growth included a slow pace of inventory accumulation, a sharp drop in investment in non-residential structures such as gas drilling, and weak government spending on defense.
Businesses accumulated $45.9 billion worth of inventories, a bit less than the $49.0 billion estimated last month and well below the fourth quarter pace. Inventories subtracted 1.70 percentage points from first-quarter growth, but should be a boost to second-quarter growth
A measure of domestic demand that strips out exports and inventories expanded at a 0.3 percent rate, the weakest pace in three years, rather than 1.6 percent as reported a month ago.

Eric Schreurs was born in 1958 in the city of Leiden. His mother was no older than eighteen years when she gave birth to her first son, and the young family lived with the grandparents for several years. Legend has it that young Eric filled his school books with all kinds of filth. "My grandson is a dirty, filthy bastard," wrote the loving grandmother during Eric's early puberty. Before his twenties, Schreurs knew for sure that he was born to be a comic artist.
After attending the art school in The Hague, Eric Schreurs dedicated his total working life to the comic. He made his debut in De Vrije Balloen, a highly satirical periodical. After this, Schreurs started with the short stories 'Knier Zwellever' and 'Geharrebar' until he finally found his goal with his most famous character 'Joop Klepzeiker' for the magazine Nieuwe Revu.
When he conceived the eternal loser Joop Klepzeiker, Schreurs made a breakthrough to the big Dutch audience. The Klepzeiker comics were sold more than 1,000,000 times (on a total population of 15,000,000!). Besides 'Klepzeiker', Schreurs penned an impressive oeuvre, notably the satirical '1984' (in 1984) and the suicidal 'Adrianus'. Eric also created 'Dick van Bill' with Hein de Kort and illustrated the book 'Recreatie', written by Theo van Gogh. Schreurs is the Hieronymus Bosch of modern Dutch comics. Various statues of his comic heroes were made, and he is one of the few artists who has his own fan club.
For three years in the early nineties Eric Schreurs had a personal crisis and completely ignored the drawing board. After recovering, however, the old spirit was back again. Schreurs revived Klepzeiker and started painting, and the book 'Strange Flesh' was a catalogue of his paintings. The exposition 'Fresh Strange Flesh' at Galerie Lambiek testified to the artistic fertility of this new phase. The exposition was on display during October 2000 at Galerie Lambiek. In 2002, Eric Schreurs received the prestigious Stripschapsprijs, the coveted Dutch comic artist award.
Nieuwe Revu also ran a comic strip about the younger years of 'Joop Klepzeiker', called 'Kleppie', until 2004. Schreurs also contributed to the literary comics magazine Eisner, that appeared between 2008 and 2010.

Not bad. Definitely didn't love it as others. I thought the sauce was really good and might be good as a marinade for grilled chicken.
Jul 10, 2014
Very delicious. I may add a little salt to the flour mixture next time. The chicken was tender and juicy combined with the crunch of the almond breading. The sauce compliments this with tangy and sweet flavor. Will definitely make again.
Jun 9, 2014
My husband said it's a keeper. Very good flavor! I used raspberry balsamic because that is what I had on hand.
May 29, 2011
Husband loves it! so good for me!
Mar 14, 2010
When I made this recipe for dinner tonight, I added a little salt to the flour/almond mixture and I wasn't sure about the sauce because it smelled very strong. Boy, was I in for a surprise! My very picky husband, 9-yr-old son and I just LOVED it!!!! The sauce has a slightly teriyaki flavor, but not as strong and the almonds on the chicken are perfect! We made it with wild rice and corn. We will definitely be making it again real soon!
Aug 15, 2009
The sauce was great and made it really pretty too. We liked it a lot.
Jun 10, 2009
Re: Balsamic Almond ChickenExcellent recipe. Even my husband liked it which he wasn't quite sure about the sauce. Certainly a keeper
May 14, 2009
The almonds add a great crusty breading to this chicken like I've never had before. Yummy sauce. Great recipe all around. I'll make it again for sure.

How to select the right carpeting for your home
Although many people may tout the benefits of hardwood flooring over carpeting, there are plenty of individuals who like to have the soft and luxurious feeling of carpeting underfoot. Selecting the right carpeting for a particular room and purpose can be a bit daunting because of the abundance of available colors and materials.
According to the Carpet and Rug Institute, carpeting is an added safety measure that makes play areas safer, potentially lessening the severity of an injury in the event of a fall. This is why carpeting is often preferred in children's rooms and play areas.
There are other advantages to carpeting as well. It can help insulate rooms both in the summer and winter. It can be easier on feet than a hard floor, and few materials absorb sound better than carpet.
Choosing the right carpeting for a room comes down to identifying the kind of foot traffic you expect in your home and which carpeting options most suit your needs. Here are some tips to get started.
• Don't overlook padding. Padding can make the difference in the way carpeting feels and how long it lasts. The thickest or most expensive padding isn't necessarily the best or the best-suited for your home. However, it is wise to pick a pad that matches the type of carpeting you're selecting. You may be able to go with a thinner pad in low-traffic rooms and under dense carpeting like berber. In high-traffic rooms, choose thicker, more durable padding. Padding prevents carpet backing and fibers from coming apart over a duration of time, so if you're spending a lot on the carpet, it pays to invest in a padding that will last the duration of the carpet as well.
• Recognize the type of carpeting that best suits your needs. There are many different types of carpeting, and they won't all be the perfect match for your home. For example, plush and saxony carpets are better in low-traffic areas. These carpets may show footprints and also vacuum tracks and dirt. Berber, meanwhile, is more flat and dense, making it highly effective at masking stains and tracks. Textured carpets like frieze are cut from fibers of different heights, so they mask stains and are also softer on the feet than berbers. An entryway or a den may be better off carpeted in a dense carpeting, while a bedroom may be fine and luxurious with plush carpeting. Carpeting may come in stain-resistant varieties or low-maintenance options. These are generally best in homes with pets and children. However, you may be able to save money by opting out of special treatments to resist stains and simply invest in a steam vacuum, instead.
• Choose color wisely. Choosing a color comes down to preference and how much the room will be used. Although light, neutral colors are often preferred because they work well in just about any room, lighter colored carpets will show stains much more easily than other carpet colors. Textured, multi-colored carpets are preferable to hide stains and can look just as elegant as solid-colored carpeting. Much in the way paint colors are chosen, carpeting colors come down to personal preference. Drama may be created with bold colors that draw the eye to the carpet. However, for those who want the carpet to fade into the background instead of upstaging decor, neutral colors are better.
• Hire a good installer. There are many beautiful carpets available, but unless you choose a reliable installer and store, you may end up paying more or receiving subpar service. Poll friends and family members for recommendations to help you narrow down options. Then be sure to have stores price out materials separate from installation so you can make more accurate comparisons. Also, you don't necessarily need to use an installer provided by the carpet store. You can shop around to find a separate installer or even do the work yourself.
Carpeting can make a fine addition to your home and make it feel more comfortable and inviting. Remember to take your time when selecting carpeting, as your decision will have long-lasting effects.

I'd like to introduce to you all a very nice tutorial that will give your DBZ fans a squeal or hunger strike. Since the new series called "Dragon Ball Kai" is out, I decided to make a lesson specifically on Goku, which is titled "how to draw Dragon Ball Kai", step by step. Kai is basically an edited edition of the original episodes, with clearer pictures and new voice overs for the characters. Personally, I highly prefer the older series that was premiered on Toonami a while ago (in the late 90's.) I remember watching the series and most of the kids in class would brag about it. There was one person who could draw Goku and Vegeta, pro! Anyways, the first time I REALLY sat down and watched almost the whole series, was when I was the age of 16. I loved the episodes and couldn't peel my eyes from the screen. There must have been hundreds of episodes that kept me going to each one. Unfortunately, I discontinued to watch the series at 'the Cell Saga' due to a heavy work-flow of this website. Well, I have to get moving onto my other lessons. I totally hope you'll enjoy this tutorial on "drawing Dragon Ball Kai characters". It's mainly Goku's face, since he plays a huge role in the episodes. Thanks so much for viewing and good luck on your future artistic endeavors!

Sixth in a six-part series. Vancouver Sun columnist Daphne Bramham explores the science of happiness through the lives of people who have made dramatic changes in their quest for meaning and contentment. What has it meant for them? For others? See all of their stories at vancouversun.com/happiness.
Canada is a happy place, but it's no Bhutan.
The tiny, landlocked nation located between India and China is the only country to reject gross national product as a measure of progress. Instead, it is pioneering the idea of gross national happiness (GNH) and the idea that well-being is more important than material wealth.
In 1972, the former king of Bhutan declared that the goal of happiness would guide governance and policy. It is based in the cultural and religious belief that "the beneficial development of human society takes place when material and spiritual development occurs side by side to complement and reinforce each other," according to the government's website.
The World Happiness Report, published last year, devotes 50 pages to explaining how the GNH works, its roots in Bhutanese history and tradition, and how it enables the government and others to either "increase the percentage of people who are happy or decrease the insufficient conditions of people who are not-yet-happy." Those not-yet-happy tend to be rural Bhutanese who have less education, lower living standards and no time for friends, family or community.
"We believe you cannot have a prosperous nation in the long run that does not conserve its natural environment or take care of the well-being of its people, which is being borne out by what is happening to the outside world," Bhutan's education minister, Thakur Singh Powdyel, told The Guardian in December.
"(Gross national happiness) is an aspiration, a set of guiding principles through which we are navigating our path toward a sustainable and equitable society. We believe the world needs to do the same before it is too late."
Gallup's global happiness survey doesn't include Bhutan. But, using the European Social Survey, the Bhutanese average is 6.05 on a 10-point scale, while the European average is 7.01. It's an extraordinary statistic, considering Bhutan is one of the poorest countries with a per-capita GDP of $6,500 and nearly one in four citizens living below the national poverty line.
(There should, however, be an asterisk to Bhutan's happiness. Even though the GNH measures community vitality, psychological well-being, cultural diversity and resilience, what the Bhutanese government doesn't like to talk about, and what the World Happiness Report didn't mention, is the country's human rights record. According to Amnesty International, there are ongoing reports of discrimination against ethnic Nepalese living in Bhutan and more than 100,000 ethnic Nepalese have been stripped of their Bhutanese citizenship since the early 1990s. These refugees, living in camps in eastern Nepal, constitute about one-sixth of Bhutan's population.)
In Gallup's happiness survey, Canada ranks second behind Denmark. In the last decade, Canada moved up from fifth in the global rankings.
But would Canada rise or fall using a happiness index similar to Bhutan's? What might Canada be like if every resource project were balanced against the well-being of citizens?
Canadians have been getting happier since 2003, despite a decade of post-9/11 concerns about terrorism, troops in Afghanistan, a global economic crisis, massive restructuring, rapid escalation in house prices and coming ever closer to the point when there will be more retired Canadians than working ones.
In December, the Ottawa-based Centre for the Study of Living Standards found that 92.3 per cent of Canadians aged 12 and over are satisfied or very satisfied with their lives.
It offered no reasons why. Maybe it's because more people — such as the ones I've written about over the past six weeks — are choosing happiness over drudgery, meaningful work over money.
One might suspect that our overall happiness quotient is rising because of an annually increasing number of carefree, retired baby boomers even as trailing generations grumble along behind, but it's actually quite the opposite. The centre says there is a widening happiness gap between young and old. It is a worrying trend.
Far from freedom-55 and carefree, golden years, there's rising anxiety among Canadians 45 and older. The report's authors suggest it reflects concerns about the financial crisis, uncertainty over job prospects and diminished pension income.
But Holman Wang offers another compelling explanation. The 40-year-old lawyer turned children's author and illustrator suggests that younger people are happier because their expectations are different.
"There was a certain time where most families were aspirational and just thought life could be better, better, better ...
"But most young people these days grow up in nice houses already. Even if they don't grow up in nice houses, they realize that life is cyclical and is not always on a trajectory up. It's not always about more. It's not always about better.
"It's about finding happiness and satisfaction now because it doesn't always get better."
There is also a geographic divide when it comes to happiness. Beautiful British Columbia's citizens are among the unhappiest Canadians, barely beating out people in Ontario and Nunavut in the race to the bottom.
Again, it suggests that money is not the source of happiness since the happiest Canadians don't live in the richest provinces. They are in Nova Scotia and Quebec.
As for happy cities, Vancouver is touted as one of the best places in the world to live. But when Statistics Canada asked residents how satisfied they are with life in general through the years 2003 to 2011, Vancouver landed below the Canadian average and tied for seventh with Winnipeg. Yes, Winterpeg.
Of course, there are 29 urban areas that fall below Vancouver.
And on the good side — this is about happiness, after all — Vancouverites are a lot happier now than in 2003.
Why? Nobody seems to know.
There is a certain fad-ishness about the First World's quest for happiness that is easy to deride as an obsession of people who have nothing left to worry about.
That's especially so since the way researchers are measuring happiness isn't as inclusive as the Bhutan model with its emphasis on environmental sustainability.
Still, there's nothing new about the interest in happiness. It's been the focus of philosophers and religions since time began.
Even the academic interest isn't new. One of the first long-term studies about the benefits of happiness was done more than 80 years ago.
Researchers divided nuns into four groups. And what the study, published in 1932 found, was that of those identified as the happiest, 90 per cent lived to be 85 or older. Among the unhappiest, 70 per cent were dead by 85.
What's changed is that economists are now interested in the happiness effect.
Harvard psychology professor Shawn Achor has proven my mother right. If you have a positive attitude, you'll do better.
His research found that doctors who told jokes before making diagnoses are up to 50 per cent more likely to be right than those who read medical research. Similar results were noted when students went to a movie before an exam rather than cramming at the last minute.
The real change recently is that economists are now interested in the happiness effect.
Daniel Sgroi and his colleagues at the University of Warwick's department of industry and organization have found that happy employees are also more productive. In one study, they found that white-collar workers' productivity increased 10.5 per cent after watching a short, funny video.
Other studies suggest that happy employees are up to twice as productive, stay five times longer at their jobs and take 10 times less sick leave.
Achor's prescription for raising baseline happiness is:
• Take time each day to think about five things to be grateful for, even if it's only for 21 days. This can raise your happiness level for six months.
• Write down a pleasant memory or thought every day. This can cut doctors' visits by 50 per cent and boost your immune system.
• Stop multi-tasking. Do one thing at a time and Achor says your stress will decrease and your health will improve.
• Focus on your strengths, use them every day and you'll be more energetic, productive and successful.
• Exercise. It has been proven to be as powerful as anti-depressant prescription drugs.
• Meditate. Focusing on breathing in and out will change your brain's functioning making you more able to have inspired, "eureka" moments.
So, being happy doesn't require anything as radical as quitting your job or joining a convent.
We now know happiness is not only its own reward, it can make individuals and societies healthier, more successful and more productive.
What's left to decide is how to use that knowledge. Perhaps like Bhutan, we might want to reject our old measures of wealth and progress and instead to aspire to be the happiest place on Earth.

|This is the article on the chapter. For the episode, head to The All-Knowing.
"The Ones Who Know Everything" (全てを知る者たち, Subete o Shiru Monotachi, Viz: The All-Knowing) is chapter 618 of the original Naruto manga.
Orochimaru brings Sasuke, Suigetsu and Jūgo to the ruined Uzumaki Clan's Mask Storage Temple. Inside, Orochimaru searches for a particular mask, disturbing Suigetsu who found it strange that he knew exactly which one to choose. As they head back towards the village, Sasuke breaks away from the group to survey the village from a high point, which Orochimaru comments as something he needs to do as Konoha is still his birthplace. Arriving at the Uchiha clan's destroyed compound, Sasuke unseals the passageway leading towards the secret room of the Naka Shrine, lamenting its current condition. There, Orochimaru dons the mask which invokes the Shinigami, and explaining as he went along, slashes the Shinigami's stomach releasing the contents. These turn out to be the spirits of those the Shinigami had consumed, which returns Orochimaru's hands to him, but has the negative effect of reflecting the wound on him as well. On Orochimaru's instructions, Jūgo uses natural energy to activate the spores Obito had Zetsu leave on Sasuke to monitor him: six in total. Sacrificing four of them while Jūgo and Suigetsu held down the other two, Orochimaru uses the Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation and then transfers his being into one of the restrained Zetsu while Jūgo absorbed the other. The screaming White Zetsu spore clones are silenced once shrouded in dirt and ash, turned into the vessels of the men who collectively possessed knowledge of Konoha's history: the deceased First, Second, Third and Fourth Hokage.
- Sasuke's scene where he commented the village had changed a lot was reminiscent of Naruto's scene at the beginning of Part II. Unlike Naruto who commented the village hasn't changed one bit, Sasuke commented the village had changed a lot. This symbolised how much they had changed since leaving the village of the end of Part I. Naruto, having changed very little if not all, commented the village hadn't change one bit whereas Sasuke, having changed a lot, commented the village had changed a lot.

This Isn't Why You Made Her Lyrics
You can't stay close enough to every boy you meet.
Drugs don't taste good enough... since then you've been clean
with every little taste your nails broke more beneath the surface
of my unsteady, undying trust for your smile of decay.
beneath the unending, undying light of such little surprise…
I could swear I never saw it coming.
And with a moments pause he slipped right in..
when I was never there to begin with.
God, please take me home.
Here's a pretty lie
Here's a big surprise
Here's a nasty taste
Here's a dying faith.
I can't breath and I swear I'll never make this bed.
I can't breath and I swear we're better off DEAD.
And im sick of redemption without revision.
And Im sick of your eyes.
This isn't why you made her...
This isn't why you made her...

We also organize adventurous dives in the fresh water caves (Cenotes) of the Yucatan, and from May to September we go snorkeling with the whale sharks – a once in a lifetime opportunity.
The Great Pacific Garbage Patch, also described as the Pacific Trash Vortex, is a gyre of marine debris in the central North Pacific Ocean located roughly between 135°W to 155°W and 35°N and 42°N.[1] The patch extends over an indeterminate area, with estimates ranging very widely depending on the degree of plastic concentration used to define the affected area.
Dive Choice Mexico does not want to contribute anymore to the plastic garbage patches in the ocean. From now on we will get rid of the plastic bottles we use on our Dive Trips and use RE-usable bottles. Please help us help!! If you are not diving with us bring your own RE-usable bottle on your dive boat. Thanks for caring!

By 2016, the U.S. will be close to a crude-oil production record of 9.6 million barrels a day, the Energy Information Administration said Monday in a preview of its annual outlook.
That record was set in 1970. Oil production is then expected to level off and slowly decline after 2020, the EIA added.
Natural-gas production, however, was seen as growing steadily, with a 56% increase between 2012 and 2040, when production will reach 37.6 trillion cubic feet. Natural gas will overtake coal as the main fuel for U.S. electricity generation by 2040.
Low natural-gas prices will boost industrial activity, with industrial shipments expected to grow 3% a year over the next 10 years and slow down to 1.6% a year through 2040.
Last week, Exxon Mobil Corp. released its long-term outlook, calling for a 65% increase in demand for natural gas by 2040. The fuel will account for 25% of energy needs by that time.
The EIA released Monday a preview of its 2014 outlook, due to be released in its entirety this Spring.
The preview contained more good news for natural gas: higher production will support more gas exports through pipelines and liquefied natural gas shipments, the EIA said.
The EIA also predicted U.S. residents will drive even less than it expected last year. Annual increases in vehicle miles traveled in light-duty vehicles will average 0.9% from 2012 to 2040, compared with 1.2% per year seen in the 2013 outlook. The rising vehicle fuel economy of those light-duty vehicles "more than offsets" modest growth in miles traveled, resulting in a 25% decline in light-duty vehicles energy consumption between 2012 and 2040.

SKF at bauma 2016: new controller for large or complex lubrication systems
2016 April 12, 13:59 CET
Gothenburg, Sweden, 12 April 2016: SKF today announced the introduction of the LMC 301 controller for lubrication applications where sophisticated control and feedback are required. Designed for use with pumps that have no internal controller, the LMC 301 is suitable for mobile, off-road, mining, construction and large process industries.
Compatible with single-line, dual-line and progressive lubrication systems, the LMC 301 can operate three different pumps, and each of those pumps can control up to three zones. Because one unit manages up to nine separate zones, fewer controllers are needed, which reduces system investment. Also, each pump can function as a different system type.
The versatile LMC 301 is an efficient solution for systems that have lubrication points requiring different lubrication intervals or varying types of grease. This controller can handle multiple greases and diverse temperature ranges, and is ideal for critical bearings where it is essential to know that they have been lubricated properly.
See SKF at bauma: Outdoors at booth FM.709/4.

Sir Ken Dodd, master of tickling sticks, Diddy Men and tattifilarious comedy, reduced fans to helplessness with his bucktoothed grin, a shake of the through-a-hedge-backwards hair and a cry of "How tickled I am".
Dodd, who died at the age of 90 on Sunday, continued to perform right through to his later years, bringing the energy and stamina of a man half his age to his manic routines in theatres up and down the land. There was no let-up in his astonishing ability to reel off joke after joke, with the rapidity of a machine gun for literally hours on end. Here are some of his very best...

Hello, I am writing to thank you for your wonderful website! I subscribed when I was studying for my National 5 exam (as an adult learner) and found it invaluable. I am delighted to have just discovered the huge amount of resources for younger learners too. My son who is in S2 will benefit from these, now and in future, as will my daughter when she moves up to S1 after summer. So just wanted to say thanks very much! Kind regards, Clare.
Clare – January 2020
Hey, Just wanted to say thank you so much for this amazing resource! Last year I was expecting to scrape a B in my N5 exam if I was lucky, and after discovering this website and working through it over the past year, my teacher said she'll be surprised if I don't get an A1!!! So once again, thank you so much!!!
Olivia – 29th April 2019
Just wanted to say what a fantastic website you have here. So well laid out, easy to follow and as a parent trying to help their child with studying, this has been the best £9.99 ever spent. I will be continuing with this for Higher Maths and also for my younger child to ensure they are keeping up with the course. The worked solutions are so clear and easy to follow and I just cannot thank you enough. Wish there was something similar for the science subjects.
Claire – April 2018
I got an 'A' in my National 5 Maths Exam! I'm very pleased as I did it my first attempt. Your website content definitely helped clarify and consolidate my understanding of the subject.
Nigel – August 2018
Just had a look at the worked solutions for the 2018 N5 Math Past Paper – Calculator was absolutely fine, but some tricky questions in non-calculator part, particularly 19b. We found the non-calculator paper much harder than five previous past papers. Anyway hopefully she has achieved an 'A' Pass and we will definitely be using your excellent site for Higher Maths next term.
Graham – May 2018
I just wanted to let you guys know that you are doing a great job at compiling all these excellent resources, it has been a great help to me and probably many many others. It has allowed me to get a reassuring prelim mark and has given me confidence for the final exam (tomorrow). Thanks for all the help and keep up the good work.
Umar – May 2018
Hello, I decided to write to you to thank you for this website, it has helped me incredibly and the amount of content you have is amazing. I was very happy to discover the many practice papers you have as I had began to run out of papers to do once completed all the SQA past papers. The checklists for the three different units is very helpful and I will definitely be taking these to school with me on the day of my exam to look over! Thank you again for being so helpful to us, it is greatly appreciated and I will be placing any success I have during the National 5 exam on this website due to the endless resources and help you have available. Thank you 🙂 Emily, Nat 5 Maths student.

It has been a while now since iZ3D have last updated their drivers and since the iZ3D version 1.11 beta was first introduced. Now there is a fresh RC1 version of the 1.11 driver available for download that has some improvement and fixes along with new game profiles, maybe the most significant thing is the much better working now support for DirectX 10 games. Have in mind however that this is still a release candidate driver and not a final one, so there can be some other issues and some things still not working perfect. Unfortunately there is still not a word regarding the anticipated 120Hz shutter glasses support for the ATI-based GPUs, so the wait for that is still not over yet and ATI is probably gearing up for the end of the year holiday season availability and not the expected summer release, but we'll have to wait and see.
– To download and try the newly released iZ3D 1.11 RC1 stereoscopic 3D driver….
