Braves 9, Dodgers 3
Top of the Order: Brian McCann blasted two home runs to lead a 12-hit attack, and Jair Jurrjens fired six stellar innings as the Braves moved within five games of first place in the middling NL East.
The Good: Lots and lots of good stuff on this night. One night [...]
Ryan Garko hit a three-run homer in the top of the first and the Indians cruised to an 8-2 victory over the Tigers to earn a split of their four-game series at Comerica Park. Kelly Shoppach hit a two-run shot to spark a five-run second inning, as the Indians improved to 29-and-35 on the season. Cliff Lee picked up his AL-leading 10th win, allowing two run over five frames while striking out five
Franklin Gutierrez hit a grand slam in the first inning and the Indians went on to beat the White Sox 8-2 in the middle contest of a three-game set at Progressive Field. Ryan Garko had an RBI double and scored twice for the Indians, who won for just the second time in 11 games. Aaron Laffey threw six innings of two-run ball to even his record at 3-and-3 with the win. Toby Hall and Orlando Cabre
THE BRONX — Oliver Perez was the good Oliver Perez tonight.He pitched 7 2/3 innings of three-hit ball as the Mets beat the Yanks 11-2 Sunday night. Still, again, I just don't understand the need for this over-emphasis on pitch counts. In the 7 2/3 innings he pitched, Perez gave up 2 runs on 3 hits. Why pull him from the game? Let the guy have a chance to get a complete game! Those are more rare

WESTERN Australia has thrashed Tasmania in the Ford Ranger Cup game at the WACA Ground, cruising past the Tigers' score of 8-181 in just the 38th over. The Warriors achieved a bonus point for reaching the target within 40 overs and remain unbeaten after two games at the top of the domestic one-day ladder. Justin Langer and Shaun Marsh set up the win with a second wicket partnership of 134 runs in WA's 2-185 in 37.2 overs. The left-handers took their time to find their feet on the WACA pitch. Langer, in particular, struggled to find the middle of the bat early. However, the former Australia opener exploded in the 32nd over, hitting 20 from Xavier Doherty's seventh over to move from 40 to 60, including two sixes. Langer's 50 came off 85 balls while Marsh, who brought up his half century with a huge six down the ground, got his half century from 82 deliveries before being caught in the deep for 66 with the tally on 168. Langer produced the shot of the day late in his innings, smas
I went to bed last night thinking mistakenly thinking that Tuesday was the 23rd - I woke up realizing that the White Stripes were playing in Boston tonight! I am very excited to see the band play live for the very fist time. (If you want a precursor to the show - check out some clips from the W.S. video "Live under Blackpool Lights" - that will get you warmed up!) The Carnival that is the White Stripes comes to Boston tonight at Boston University's Agganis Arena. The duo of Jack and Meg White are on the road in support of their sensational "Icky Thump" album. It's just another chance for rock genius Jack White to show his chops!A CARNIVAL ATMOSPHERE TONIGHT IN BOSTONThe White Stripes by LeibovitzFrom Icky Thump:The White Stripes - ConquestEarning Your Stripes Here!My review of "The Icky Thump"Download the complete W.S. concert at the London Forum - 2001
"Icky Thumb" é o título do sexto álbum de originais dos White Stripes, banda originária de Detroit e formada por Meg White (bateria e voz) e Jack White (guitarra e voz), este uma das figuras mais marcantes do actual panorama do rock'n'roll devido ao seu papel não só nos White Stripes, mas também nos Racounters.Com inspirações tão dispares como o punk, o folk ou os blues, o seu som low-fi caracteriza-se pelo minimalismo. A simplicidade na composição e nos arranjos são imagens de marca desta banda que é um dos estandartes do revivalismo do garage rock.Depois de um extremamente bem sucedido álbum em 2003 "Elephant" que lhes valeu dois grammy e que os atirou para a frente de um movimento onde pontificam bandas como os Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs oo Kills, os White Stripes lançaram um menos bem conseguido Get Behind me Satan (2005) que deixou no ar a possibilidade de o filão se estar a esgotar, esse facto e o cada vez maior empenho de Jack White no seu outro projecto "Racoun

The White Stripes are in a constant state of evolution. In their typical fashion, Icky Thump doesnt sound like any of their pre-existing albums; theyve gone from bluesy garage rock duo to country rock spectacle in just six albums and 10 years. Call them weird or call them droning (and they get to both on Thump), but boring they are not.
Review by Heather Phares @ allmusic.com
A lot changed in the White Stripes' world between Get Behind Me Satan and Icky Thump: Jack White left Detroit for Nashville, married and had a daughter, and formed the Raconteurs, a side project that won so much praise that some fans worried that it meant the end of the Stripes. Those fears were as unfounded as the speculation that White's new

Album number six from the Detroit based garage rock duo is the follow up to 2005's Grammy Award winning 'Get Behind Me Satan.' Produced by Jack White himself and recorded over a period of three weeks in Nashville, 'Icky Thump' signals a welcome return to the band's trademark blues rock sound, yet with a few surprises thrown in. Flamenco rhythms, bagpipes and trumpets are just some of the unexpected elements that make an appearance over the course of the album, giving the band a new dimension whilst retaining their raw playing style and unquestionable songwriting skill.Site: White StripesSimilar Artists: Detroit Cobras, Soledad Brothers, The Dirtbombs, The Sonics

So it’s true: Hindsight really is 20/20.
You know this because it occurred to you too late that you should have taken your sunglasses off during the job interview.
Next time, you need to be professional think (and look) ahead by dressing appropriately. But the next time you need to be active and play hard, try on a pair of Oakley's Thump 2.
Simplified lines and cool colors temper the collection’s old tough guy vibe and lean more towards the hipster in you. The durable frame is made of lightweight O Matter and comes in hues like brown smoke and polished black — with available memory storage up to 1 gigabyte for your favorite music. That's 240 songs in a fully integrated design that frees you from dangling cords and wires.
Want the more athletic look? Go for the Oakley Thump Pro.Whatever your look, the Thump is extremely useful for outdoor activity. And, like previous Thumps, these are compatible with both Windows and the Mac OS. So you’ll be set for all kinds of situation
We already know about the White Stripes' headlining Bonnaroo gig coming up this summer. We also already know about the upcoming release of their latest album, Icky Thump, due June 19. Now, we finally have the details about Jack and Megs North American tour in support of Thump. And if you live in a crazy part of the continent that doesnt often get big-time shows, you just might be in luck
Thump - No, I didn’t just walk into a wall, that’s the name of these cool looking sunglasses from Oakley.
These are apparently the worlds first digital music sunglasses which offer you hi-fi sound with 100% UV protection.
It comes with a USB cable meaning that you can transfer music straight away without any configuration required.
The ear piece has no cords and the controls are built into the frame. I would love to know how easy that is to control when you are running or working out. If anyone has a pair of these glasses, let me know.
It’s a 512MB player which will give you approximately 120 songs (8 hours).
The glasses run on a lithium -ion battery and according to their website, that should give you approximately 6 hours playback on 3-hour charge, 4 hours playback on 1-hour charge. The USB cable will recharge your glasses when you connect to your pc.
The glasses are shatterproof and scratch-resistant Plutonite® and the frames are lightweight and flexible fo
As it turns out, the NIT is apparently not a sucky tournament at all. South Carolina, winners of last year’s NIT, decided to use their game against Tennessee to come out of their shell and beat the crap out of an SEC opponent. South Carolina held on to the ball, only giving up 5 turnovers for the majority of the game (the last couple don’t really count, since they were playing people out of the crowd). Tennessee couldn’t get the temp where they wanted it, and couldn’t get the basketball in the metal thing that has the nylon netting below it (from what I understand, that is a fundamental part of this sport).
The level of apathy towards scoring was second only to Ryan Seacrest’s attempts at the Playboy Mansion. Zing! A Ryan Seacrest joke. All part of the service we like to provide here at Fulmer’s Belly.
Chris Lofton couldn’t really get in a rhythm, although Bert Bertlekamp, along with his infinitely insightful commentary (which consi
