The win was the second victory for the De Anza Lady Dons in the 2010 season to improve their record to 2-1-4.The Lady Dons dominated much of the first half of the game and tallied the only goal of the half. De Anza had possession of the ball most of the first half, and play mostly occurred at the Cabrillo&amp;rsquo;s half of the field.The second half was much more contested with chances from both sides. Cabrillo came out more energized...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-related-photos field-type-node-reference field-label-hidden field-bundle-story&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot;&gt;&lt;img typeof=&quot;foaf:Image&quot; src=&quot;http://cdn2-b.examiner.com/sites/default/files/styles/mobile_rss/hash/fa/76/fa76fc192443205f55b3f18059e8aa40.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

But when the objects in question are your sofas, stereo speakers, or other items, it can become a major problem. The best way to prevent destructive scratching is by providing an environment that meets your cat&amp;#39;s needs. Before you get a cat, you&amp;#39;ll need to &amp;quot;cat proof&amp;quot; your home. Don&amp;#39;t want your kitty in a certain area? You may need to consider child locks, barriers, or simply closing the door. For persistent areas that cannot be barricaded, consider remote punishment, taste and odor aversion or booby traps....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-related-photos field-type-node-reference field-label-hidden field-bundle-story&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot;&gt;&lt;img typeof=&quot;foaf:Image&quot; src=&quot;http://cdn2-b.examiner.com/sites/default/files/styles/mobile_rss/hash/71/e6/71e6aed775b8f0d68dc2b8283d6ae0f1.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

Marc Jacobs is known for his innovative designs which are unique yet easy to wear. The classic yet fashion forward vibe of Marc Jacobs seasonal collections is reflected in Marc Jacobs Bang which is a mix of trendy pepper and classic woods. Since Marc Jacobs designs are already popular in Silicon Valley, it should be no surprise that Marc Jacobs Bang arrived on store shelves here in September with a Bang; no pun intended.Marc Jacobs Bang starts off with a strong zing of peppercorn.

They have a collection filled with North American railroad memorabilia, working model train sets, and railway outbuildings.AndDon&amp;rsquo;t call it a &amp;ldquo;model railroad museum&amp;rdquo; to anyone&amp;rsquo;s face there&amp;mdash;the older, craggier, and beardier faces least of all.

<title>Nat&#039;l. gumbo day: Ruth’s New Orleans spicy turkey gumbo recipe</title>

Gumbo is a Creole and Cajun soup/stew; Ruth&amp;rsquo;s Cajun husband was born and raised in Louisiana, and she gave this recipe to our family many years ago.
Unlike Filé Gumbo which uses a seasoning made from ground-up sassafras leaves, this interesting take on the dish goes up another spicy avenue, involving chorizo sausage for a flavor boost.&amp;nbsp; Ruth did, however, say one could use Crab Boil as an optional ingredient.&amp;nbsp; Just add it to taste along with the salt and pepper.

<title>Perfect spaghetti and meatballs for National Pasta Month</title>

The secret may be more in how the meatballs are made rather than the ingredients. Most of us have a tendency to over-work the meat mixture and to compress it when forming the meatballs in our hands. Try using a light touch while gently and quickly tossing the meat mixture and rolling it into meatballs. This will keep your meatballs tender and light, almost &amp;quot;fluffy.&amp;quot;&amp;nbsp;For the sauce, you can certainly use your own recipe or buy prepared marinara sauce; however,...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-related-photos field-type-node-reference field-label-hidden field-bundle-story&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot;&gt;&lt;img typeof=&quot;foaf:Image&quot; src=&quot;http://cdn2-b.examiner.com/sites/default/files/styles/mobile_rss/hash/7a/dd/7add82b276266159971ac52f46714ac1.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

<title>A SOULFUL BOWLFUL</title>

<description>&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden field-bundle-story&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot; property=&quot;content:encoded&quot;&gt;Due to the continuing surge in popularity of ethnic cuisines, there are probably as many plays on words about pho as there are light bulb jokes. Pho-tastic, pho-natic, pho-nomenal. The irony, of course, is that the correct pronunciation of this Vietnamese soup -- fragrant with cinnamon and thai basil, kaffir lime leaves and jalapeno, rice noodles and bean sprouts, and anchored by a protein base of steak, brisket, chicken or seafood -- is FUH - which kind of leaves the jokes falling flat.
Along with the stomach feeling full. Pho is to Vietnamese cuisine what matzoh ball soup is to the Jews....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-related-photos field-type-node-reference field-label-hidden field-bundle-story&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot;&gt;&lt;img typeof=&quot;foaf:Image&quot; src=&quot;http://cdn2-b.examiner.com/sites/default/files/styles/mobile_rss/hash/a7/d0/101012082922images.jpeg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>
