Bruins place Charlie McAvoy, Pavel Zacha on IR

The Bruins placed defenseman Charlie McAvoy and center Pavel Zacha on injured reserve, knocking them out of action for at least seven days since they left the lineup with their respective upper body injuries.McAvoy was injured in the B’s loss to Buffalo on December 7 and Zacha was injured in the win over Arizona on Dec. 9. McAvoy had begun skating on his own before the team left for their two-game road trip, but Zacha had not started skating yet. In their place, the B’s brought up center Patrick Brown and defenseman Parker Wotherspoon.The B’s, who play on Long Island against the New York Islanders on Friday and then come home to play the Rangers on Saturday, played without both McAvoy and Zacha on Wednesday in New Jersey and they had an extra forward in Jesper Boqvist, so it’s not clear if there were any injuries stemming from the 2-1 loss to the Devils that would precipitate the call-ups.Also, there were no takers for Jakub Zboril, who cleared waivers on Thu...No more dry chicken breasts, thanks to this marinade

Beth Dooley | (TNS) Star TribuneChicken breasts are notoriously tricky to cook. Because they’re lean, they tend to dry out quickly and their thickness varies significantly from end to end. Often, by the time the wide side has cooked through, the tapered end becomes stringy and tough.There are a couple of tricks to employ to keep the meat tender, moist and juicy. The first, of course, is to use the best chicken. Choose pasture-raised chickens, birds that have lived outside in the sun. They are healthy birds, raised without hormones or antibiotics, and their meat is flavorful, firm and more “chickeny.”To deal with the meat’s shape, try placing it on a hard surface and pounding it a little with the back of a skillet. Marinating the meat in yogurt can work wonders, too. Greek yogurt is your best choice because it contains calcium and lactic acid, and the two work together to break down the meat’s protein so it becomes super-tender and moist. It’s simi...Quick Fix: Provencal Pork with Pepper Potatoes

Linda Gassenheimer | Tribune News Service (TNS)Thinking about the flavors of Provence brings memories of the simple and delicious cooking in the South of France. For this Provencal Pork, I decided to add a simple tapenade to oven roasted pork tenderloin to make a quick meal. Another secret to bring out the French flavors is using Herbes de Provence seasoning. It’s an aromatic mixture usually including thyme, basil, rosemary, tarragon, marjoram and oregano. You can also use it to flavor poultry or lamb.Sauteed potatoes with red and green peppers are a perfect accompaniment to balance out the meal. To speed up the cooking, I first microwave the potatoes and peppers and then finish sauteing them in the same skillet used to make the pork.Helpful Hints:Italian seasoning can be used instead of herbs de Provence.Red wine vinegar can be used instead of balsamic vinegar.COUNTDOWN:Preheat oven to 450 degrees.Microwave potatoes and peppers and set aside, covered.Prepare pork, saute and place i...This La Jolla restaurant just earned Michelin Guide status

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) — With prospects for a smoking ban in Atlantic City’s casinos looking hazier than ever, workers who want smoking banned took matters into their own hands, lips and lungs Thursday.Members of the United Auto Workers union disrupted a meeting of a state Assembly committee that had been scheduled to take a preliminary vote on a bill to ban smoking in the casinos by lighting cigarettes and blowing smoke toward legislators.That vote was canceled Wednesday night when one of the main champions of workers who want smoking banned in the gambling halls gave up on a bill that would end smoking in the nine casinos, and embraced some measures the casino industry wants, including enclosed smoking rooms. That had some employees burning mad — literally.Seven members of the union, which represents dealers at three casinos in Atlantic City, began smoking in the meeting hall of the State House Annex, where, like virtually all other workplaces in New Jersey, smoking is pro...A 4-month-old survived after a Tennessee tornado tossed him.

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A 4-month-old boy has survived after a tornado in Tennessee sucked him up from his family’s mobile home, which was demolished in the storm.Sydney Moore told WSMV-TV that when the tornado hit their home in Clarksville on Saturday, it ripped off the roof and lifted the bassinet with her son inside. Her boyfriend, the child’s father, tried to grab the bassinet but was spun up into the twister as well, Moore said.“He was just holding on to the bassinet the whole time, and they went into circles, he said, and then they got thrown,” Moore said.At about the same time in another room, as the wind howled, Moore decided to jump on top of their other son, who is 1. She grabbed the child as the walls collapsed, she said.Moore and the 1-year-old were crushed under the trailer, but she said she managed to push them out.They searched for the younger son for 10 minutes, and ultimately found him lying in a fallen tree in the pouring rain.“I was pretty sure he wa...Air Jordans made for filmmaker Spike Lee are up for auction after being donated to Oregon shelter

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The shiny, gold Nike sneakers were hard to miss in the donation pile at a shelter in Portland, Oregon, earlier this year.They were Air Jordan 3s, size 12 1/2, and one of just a few custom pairs that had been made for filmmaker Spike Lee. Now they’re up for auction, where they could fetch $20,000 to benefit the shelter.The shoes were anonymously dropped in the donation chute at the Portland Rescue Mission in the spring. A formerly homeless man in the mission’s long-term shelter program found them while sorting through donations and brought them to the attention of the staff, according to a blog post on the mission’s website this week.Nike designer Tinker Hatfield designed the kicks in 2019 for Lee, who wore his pair to the Academy Awards that year when he accepted an Oscar for his “BlacKkKlansmen” screenplay. The donated sneakers weren’t Lee’s personal pair, but were among a few made for him to give out to his inner circle, the Port...Latest news
