    Delco League Baseball: Narberth rallies to put Chester in 2-0 hole

    Chester?s Grant Lamberton, right, beats the throw to Narberth catcher Marco Menna to score a run during Game 2 of a Delco League semifinal series Saturday. Menna and Narberth rallied to claim a 7-6 victory and take a commanding 2-0 lead in the best-of-five series. (Times staff / JULIA WILKINSON)

    The Narberth Mudcats have a commanding 2-0 lead over top-seeded Chester after winning, 7-6, in come-from-behind fashion Saturday in a Delco League semifinal game.

    Narberth plated four runs in the top of the seventh to erase a 6-3 deficit. Four batters were plunked, including Matt DeBarberie, who knocked in the game-winning run the hard way. Mike Galetta had a run-scoring single in the inning.

    Brian Miller slammed the door in the seventh to earn the win after allowing three inherited runners to score in the bottom of the sixth (as Chester staked a 6-3 lead)

    Steve DeBarberie delivered a clutch RBI hit in Narberth?s three-run fifth. Richie Young and Lou DeRosa -- back in the lineup after a lengthy respite -- stroked two hits for the winners.

    Game 3 is at Nartberth Playground Sunday at 2 p.m.

    Bangoya, BBQ & Kushiyaki @ Jaya One: Grilling Under The Stars!

    Chasing Food Dreams: Bangoya, BBQ & Kushiyaki @ Jaya One: Grilling Under The Stars!

    Bangoya, BBQ & Kushiyaki @ Jaya One: Grilling Under The Stars!


    Hanging out Izakaya Style under the Stars! The newest kid on the block at Jaya One, Bangoya is set to wag some tongues! Truly madly in love with the Izakaya concept, the owner conceptualize a place where everyone can hang out after a long?s day at work. Thus Bangoya was born, a casual izakaya place to chill, to drink and to eat some awesome Japanese BBQ & Kushiyaki. Invited to their soft launch recently, it was love at first sight for me the moment I climb up the narrow stairs to the rooftop of Kissaten at Jaya One. At the entrance, one gets greeted by a wall of beers and Japanese printed cloths. Then you walked out to open air to a cozy space filled with lots of bamboo, greens, recycled furniture and tiled countertops. A rustic bar also made from wood sits in one corner where luscious aroma perfumed the air around. It?s all about the grill at Bangoya! The menu consists mostly of its specialty of Japanese Yakiniku and Kushiyaki. Simply order to grill yourselves or have the chef grill up skewers of Kushiyaki for you. Bangoya uses Binch?-tan or white charcoal, a high quality charcoal originated from Japan. It is renowned for its ability to burn steadily for a longer period and does not release much smoke or unpleasant odours. When it burns, one can see how white the coals are and true enough, there was less smoke than the usual regular coals unless the meat has release its fats onto the coals. Since we were still waiting for others to arrive, we snack on some snacks with our chilled beers. It?s GUINNESS for me since I have grown really fond of this black gold. Bangoya serves up plenty of beers - draught and bottle, sakes and sochus, cocktails and other non-alcoholic liquids. The menu at Bangoya is relatively tight and sufficient, showing off what they do best. We munched on blanched Edamame and feasted on Hiyayakko Tofu and some Kushiyakis. There are not many sides available but who wants sides when one can feast on scrumptious meats and seafood? If you must have your salads, there are a few available like Bangoya Bitter Gourd Salad, CabbageSalad, Onion Salad and Bangoya Cucumber Salad. Here comes the star! Our grill arrived in a huge clay vessel ready for some Yakiniku grilling action. Order platters of meats from beef, pork and lamb to seafood and vegetables. Some meats and seafood are laced with marinades while some are simply sprinkled with salt to show off its original taste. Two sauces are served with the BBQ, one with a gorgeous soy based sweet sauce and the other a lemon infused sauce. I love the first one as it goes really well with the meat while I find the lemon one goes better with seafood. We feasted on Australia Beef Sirloin, Beef Tongue, Lamb, Pork, Eggplant and Mushrooms. Don?t ask me for a favorite choice? every plate was my favorite!! Each one has its own taste and even the plain meat with a little salt is superb. All meats are thinly sliced so it really doesn?t take much time to cook it. Meat and seafood platters run from RM10 to RM20 while vegetables are RM5 each. My first time having Beef Tongue and I must say that it?s not as scary as it sounds? in fact, it?s delicious!
    We sure had loads of fun? the ambience was really warm and cozy with Mother Nature changing from dusk into midnight blue. Much laughters and cheers added the izakaya ambience that night! Kushiyakis arrive in between our Yakinikus and were also devoured in no time. Call us gluttons but it was just a perfect evening of great companies of friends, beers and BBQ? in no certain order! The skewers of chickens and spare parts, pork, seafood and vegetables are all nicely grilled and prices from RM3 to RM5 per stick. Some of the chicken parts are seasoned with teriyaki or salt. One gets all part of chickens here from Meat to Liver, Gizzard, Wings, Skin, Tsukune and even The Pope?s Nose! The Tsukune is tender and yummy while I braved my first attempt at trying the liver and gizzard. The liver had a great charred edge but it is really very soft and tasted like a pate. The gizzard with salt is amazingly good, boasting a great juicy bouncy almost crunchy texture that just pops in the mouth. Make sure to order the gizzard!! Chicken with leek is pretty good since I like the soft subtle leeks and the skin, well the skin is a something of a treat. Indulge in it once it a while is definitely good for the soul? We were naughty. We wanted a taste of Kissaten?s burger after we saw someone had it earlier. And so before we knew it, orders were placed and we got our way for an order of Kissburger of Teriyaki Pork and Teriyaki Chicken. Try your luck and ask nicely and you may get to order the burger at Bangoya? Both burgers are simply lick-a-licious! Juicy and sandwich with a fluffy bun made according to Kissaten?s secret recipe, its sweet and savory, providing a great satisfying of flavors. The pork one comes with a fried egg for extra sexiness. Time flew by and we didn?t even realize it simply because it was just so comfortable to hang out under the sky at Bangoya. Yeah, there was still smoke and I did smell like a BBQ humanoid but it is a grill after all. Look on the bright side because the atmosphere and awesome food is worth every smoke and smell on my hair and clothes. The casual ambience coupled with superb food and chilled beers or sake just makes me want to hang out there every day after work. The place has limited seats, make sure to head there early and get some R&R with scrumptious Yakinikus and Kushiyakis!

    Stolen Auto Insurance coverage Claim Procedure - Australien

    What would you do if your car was stolen? Via the bewilderment and adrenaline rush, you need to have to stay calm and consider clearly. Your 1st response must be to confirm no other attainable explanation exists to clarify your missing vehicle. Did you park illegally creating you susceptible to getting your car towed? Are you in jeopardy of having your automobile reprocessed? It can be extremely embarrassing to file an insurance coverage claim and police report just to comprehend it wasn?t stolen following all. When you have worked via alternate causes for your car to be missing and figure out your car was absolutely stolen, it is time to begin the vehicle insurance coverage claim process.

    Is theft covered on your car insurance coverage policy?

    In each and every state in the U.S. you have to have purchased extensive coverage on your insurance coverage policy in order to have coverage for a stolen car. Even if your vehicle was stolen from your residence, only an auto policy with complete will cover your loss, not your residence insurance policy. It is a common misconception a house policy will cover a automobile and it is not true. Auto policies cover autos and house policies cover residences.

    Claim Procedure

    A stolen auto needs to be documented as soon as achievable by police. You need to also notify your insurance business quickly of the scenario by contacting your insurance agent or calling your insurance coverage carrier?s buyer service quantity. Your insurance agent can aid you verify regardless of whether you have extensive coverage listed on your policy and support you file the claim.

    A lot of insurance organizations demand a minimum waiting period for a stolen car claim to be finalized. Often the wait time it thirty days in order to see Car Policy Costs if the vehicle can be recovered. The time period normally starts at the time the car was stolen and not when you filed the claim. Ask your insurance carrier what time frame is required for your claim to be finalized.

    Stolen Vehicle Claim Investigation

    Theft claims whether or not they are in relation to your automobile or belongings are usually investigated completely by insurance coverage adjusters. Be ready for recorded conversations with the claim adjuster as component of the company?s regular procedure. Do not take the questions personally. It is the adjuster?s job to be on the lookout for fraudulent claims. Widespread info collected in the course of the claims process consists of:

    Date and Time of Theft
    Year, Make, Model, and Mileage of Stolen Car
    Place of the Vehicle
    Police Report
    Dealing with a Total Loss Claim

    That is correct, if your vehicle is stolen, you have a total loss claim on your hands. You will require to come to an agreement with the insurance adjuster as to the existing value of your car minus your deductible. Following an agreement is made, you will need to have your lender, if you have a loan, sign off on the title. Finally, you want to sign the title over to the insurance coverage organization. You will no longer have any ownership of the automobile. If the car is located soon after the claim has been settled, the insurance coverage company will have ownership. It is attainable to operate out an agreement with the insurance company if the car is identified and you want to buy it back.

    What about damages to the automobile if it is recovered?

    Complete will also cover the damages to your car if it is recovered damaged. The thief might have destroyed your interior Car Policy Fees or wrecked the automobile. The repairs will be covered with extensive coverage minus your deductible.

    Is there coverage for your belongings in the stolen automobile?

    Your vehicle may have been stolen along with a lot of your possessions. Gps, auto seat, Christmas presents, or cds, the list is endless of what may well have been lost with your automobile. Individual belongings in a vehicle are not covered under your auto policy. You would need to have to have purchased a house owner?s or renter?s insurance coverage policy. The big problem with coverage on a separate policy is being forced to pay a separate deductible. If you have your auto and residence insurance coverage with the exact same insurance carrier, check with them to see if you can consolidate into a single deductible for the loss. Separate insurance carriers undoubtedly will not bend on your deductible. It is another great explanation to have all your insurance coverage with a single insurance coverage company.

    Anti-Theft Device Discount

    The probability of possessing your car stolen is primarily based hugely on exactly where you reside. Most insurance coverage companies provide a discount for getting a car alarm. The savings you obtain is primarily based on how considerably you are paying for complete coverage. Often the savings seem slim because the anti-theft device discount only applies to the comprehensive coverage and not your entire policy.

    If you are unsure of what your policy covers, make confident to learn about auto insurance coverage by reviewing with your agent or reading up on the topic. Realizing how your policy works just before a claim circumstance arises will relieve you of a lot of pressure. Don?t forget to go over your auto insurance policy completely each renewal to ensure you have the coverage you Vehicle Policy Charges want.

    Denzel Washington, Mark Whalberg & Paula Patton Take NY W/ 2 Guns

    Denzel, Mark, Paula and more dish on their latest Hollywood hit.

    Today (August 2), Denzel Washington and Mark Whalberg will come together in theaters nationwide as the most unexpected cop duo to hit the big screen in the Universal Studios comedic action-packed drama, 2 Guns. Washington, an undercover DEA agent, and Whalberg, an AWOL naval intelligence officer, are giving audiences improv and scripted comedy at its best as they go on the run from the very organizations that employ them after being double crossed at the end of a year-long operation that was unknowingly illegal from the start.

    Filmed in New Mexico and Louisiana, the two-time Academy Award winner and two-time Oscar nominee are joined by an all-star cast including Paula Patton (Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, Jumping the Broom), Bill Paxton (Vertical Limit, Mighty Joe Young), James Marsden (27 Dresses, Death at a Funeral), Edward James Olmos (Selena, Battlestar Galactica), Fred Ward (30 Minutes or Less, Sweet Home Alabama) and more as they attempt to retrieve an unruly $43.125 million without getting their heads shot off (all puns intended).

    ?We?ve known each other for a while, but I think what surprised me was just how willing Denzel was to just try anything,? said Whalberg said during a New York press conference held this past Sunday (July 28). Washington quickly cut in to add to his co-star?s work impression. ?[When] I heard that Mark was involved [in the movie] I was like, ?Oh okay, I can be safe?I knew Mark was not just funny; he has a warmth and a heart about him that I?ve loved.?

    As Denzel, Mark, Paula and other cast members met in the Big Apple to New York this past bring the Baltasar-directed film to life, BlackEnterprise.com and other media tastemakters gathered to find out what $74 million Hollywood flick had up its sleeve. From hysterical, indecent humor to unpredictable action, find out what Tinseltown?s A-listers about their latest Blockbuster hit.

    It?s the first time you two have worked together. What surprised you about each other?

    Mark: We?ve known each other for a while, but I think what surprised me was just how willing Denzel was to try anything. We wanted to add some humor and shake it up a bit and combine comedic elements with the dramatic aspect of the movie.

    Denzel: I would say the same thing. I?ve been looking to kind of stick my toe in the water. [After] coming off of Flight, I was looking to do something to have more fun so when I read the script and I heard that Mark was involved I was like, ?Oh okay, I can be safe because I knew Mark was not just funny he has a warmth and a heart about him that I?ve loved?I watched Ted the other night too, man! That?s a sick movie. How did you do that fight scene? You got spanked?so I wasn?t ready to get spanked yet, but he helped free me up to just go for it and [not] worry about being too silly.

    The chemistry between the two of you is so delicious and wonderful, what did you do to bond?

    Denzel: We went to Lamaze class together [laughs]. We?re neighbors?

    Mark: We?ve known each other socially?we both have four kids. I was constantly able to ask him for advice and pick his brain about things both personally and professionally. [But] we?re both professional, so even if we didn?t spend time hanging out we would just come and do our job, and we would enjoy our job. We?re both serious about our job, so it would just kind of works or it doesn?t?

    Denzel: And Mark?s a good guy?he?s a regular guy like me so I was like, ?Let?s go! Let?s hit it.?

    What do you think is harder? Making audiences laugh in a comedic role, or making them emotionally invested in your character in a drama?

    Denzel: For me, I have less experience with this, so I won?t say it?s harder, but?that?s why I wanted to go out there with somebody who I know knows that territory better than I do. Some of the stuff that Mark was doing, I was like, ?If he can do that, I can just go for it!?

    Mark: Whether you?re gonna make people laugh or make people cry, it?s always the same approach for me.

    Leaked photos: Samsung's Galaxy S4 Mini is headed to Verizon

    Leaked photos show Samsung's Galaxy S4 Mini heading to Verizon

    Here is it: the Galaxy S4 Mini... for Verizon? As of now, Samsung's smaller Galaxy S4 sibling is an international-only device; in other words, no US carriers have officially signed on to offer it. That said, a Samsung SCH-i435 recently made its way into the Bluetooth SIG's website, and those who follow VZW's classifications of Samsung products are all-too-familiar with the "SCH" prefix. Of course, a handful of leaked photos can't confirm a release date nor a price, but if it's already popping up with that label on the rear, surely the wait won't be much longer. Hop on past the break for a side-by-side shot with an iPhone 5.

    Egyptian Athlete's Public Anti-Israel Display Condemned

    As Israelis and Jews worldwide finish celebrating the Maccabiah Games in good spirits,?one Arab sportsman has?sent a?reminder of the kind of unsporting behavior that all too often dominates Middle Eastern competitions.

    On Thursday, the British?Jewish News?website reported how?Egyptian-born Mohamad Salah, who plays for Switzerland's?FC Basel, found himself?at the center?of controversy after it emerged that he refused to shake hands with Maccabi Tel Aviv players during this week?s Champions League qualifying game.

    The Arab player apparently?went to great lengths to avoid the traditional pre-match handshake between the two teams?by placing a pair of boots on the side of the pitch, and leaving to put them on as the two sets of players met.

    Following the match, which FC Basel won 1 - 0,?Salah's manager Murat Yakin?said that he?could be dropped for the return leg in Israel on Tuesday night.

    ?Politically, I don?t like to express myself, but if a player is not focused mentally, he?d better be left out, I think we have enough professionals in our squad to replace Salah," he said.

    This is not the first time an Egyptian athlete has displayed "unsporting" behavior towards an Israeli opponent.

    In June, during an international women's ?wrestling event, Egyptian wrestler Enas Moustafa Youssef Khourshid bit her Israeli opponent Ilana Kartysh. After the match,?Kartysh told Israeli media that Khourshid had also broken two of her fingers.

    The Israeli wrestler still won that match, which resulted in a suspension for Khourshid.
