The Philadelphia Phillies shared video of the father as he managed to snag the foul ball with his right hand while cradling his daughter and a food tray in his left arm. He not only managed to snag the prize out of the air amid several other eager fans but could also be seen sporting a calm and confident expression as he grabbed ahold of the foul ball. Afterward, the man held the ball up triumphantly before setting the food tray aside and celebrating with the rest of the fans in his section. The young girl apparently shares her father's calm demeanor, as she remained calm throughout the excitement.
Food...Tips for a Leaner Barbeque Menu(NewsUSA) - It's time to dust off the grills, pile up the charcoal and break out the oversized spatula because grilling season is here! With school out for the summer, it's time for families to gear up for barbecue parties filled with tasty grilled grub. If you're looking to whip up barbecue favorites at your next family cookout but still want to keep the menu lean, follow these go-to tips for lightened up versions of classic dishes that don't sacrifice an ounce of flavor.
* Ditch the Traditional Bun: If you're looking to cut calories and pack in an extra serving of veggies for the kids, consider swapping your traditional hamburger and hot dog buns for creative and delicious veggie alternatives. Refrigerator staples from zucchini and romaine lettuce to sweet potato can quickly transform into slider and sausage buns. For added flavor and a meatier texture, cook your veggies on the grill with a brush of olive oil, salt and pepper. * Grill Lean(er) Meat: Believe it or not, there is a way to eat clean and lean without sacrificing the taste you love from richer cuts of meat. Chicken breasts, skinless chicken thighs, pork loin and even flank steak are all excellent options for leaner cuts. Fewer calories aren't the only bonus -- the lack of excess fat will cause fewer flare-ups on the grill. If you're a fan of hot dogs or bratwurst, consider looking for a leaner seasoned sausage to swap so flavor isn't sacrificed. Simply Savory Smoked Sausages from Land O'Frost are available in a variety of bold flavors, including bacon and cheddar, chipotle and roasted red pepper, and Italian style with pepper and mozzarella. These sausages have 35 percent less fat and no artificial flavors, MSG and fillers often found in hot dogs and sausage products. * Tangy Twist: Instead of dousing chicken and pork in store-bought barbeque sauces that are high in sugar, consider squeezing the juice of fresh lemon or limes over meat. If you're feeling a little bit more adventurous, swap out the tangy taste for a sweeter fruit. Adding pineapple or orange juice can offer the sweet flavors you're craving without the added sugar. With these simple tricks in mind, fire up the grill and get ready to create a healthier barbecue for your family and friends.

Amateur Radio Field Day Members of the Delaware-Lehigh Amateur Radio Club will participate in the 24-hour national Amateur Radio Field Day exercise, Saturday, June 25, 2 p.m. – Sunday, June 26, 2 p.m. at Louise Moore Park, off Country Club Road in Easton. Since 1933, ham radio operators across North America have established temporary ham radio stations in public locations during Field Day to showcase the science and skill of Amateur Radio. This event is open to the public and all are encouraged to attend.
For over 100 years, Amateur Radio — sometimes called ham radio — has allowed people from all walks of life to experiment with electronics and communications techniques, as well as provide a free public service to their communities during a disaster, all without needing a cell phone or the Internet. Field Day demonstrates ham radio’s ability to work reliably under any conditions from almost any location and create an independent communications network. Over 35,000 people from thousands of locations participated in Field Day in 2015. “It’s easy for anyone to pick up a computer or smartphone, connect to the Internet and communicate, with no knowledge of how the devices function or connect to each other,” said Sean Kutzko of the American Radio Relay League, the national association for Amateur Radio. “But if there’s an interruption of service or you’re out of range of a cell tower, you have no way to communicate. Ham radio functions completely independent of the Internet or cell phone infrastructure, can interface with tablets or smartphones, and can be set up almost anywhere in minutes. That’s the beauty of Amateur Radio during a communications outage.” “Hams can literally throw a wire in a tree for an antenna, connect it to a battery-powered transmitter and communicate halfway around the world,” Kutzko added. “Hams do this by using a layer of Earth’s atmosphere as a sort of mirror for radio waves. In today’s electronic do-it-yourself (DIY) environment, ham radio remains one of the best ways for people to learn about electronics, physics, meteorology, and numerous other scientific disciplines, and is a huge asset to any community during disasters if the standard communication infrastructure goes down.” Anyone may become a licensed Amateur Radio operator. There are over 725,000 licensed hams in the United States, as young as 5 and as old as 100. With clubs such as the Delaware-Lehigh Amateur Radio Club in Nazareth it’s easy for anybody to get involved. For more information about Field Day and Amateur Radio, contact [email protected], or 610.432.8286, or visit www.dlarc.org and www.arrl.org/what-is-ham-radio.

Bring some lunch and prepare to be outdoors with adequate footwear, clothing, and bug repellant. Registration is required.

Ask The Doc........
Technology can be wonderful!
by Dr. Gary Williams, DMD
garywilliamsdmd.com
I know sometimes new technologies can be frustrating and leave us questioning whether “progress” is worth the hassle. But, that is not the case with intra-oral digital scanners. We have been using our digital scanner at Family Dental Care now for 3 months, and the results are amazing.
Sure, it’s pretty “cool” technology, and it has been totally comfortable for patients. No gagging going on! And the turn around time is much shorter. All of these are pluses, but here is the real benefit… the accuracy and fit of what we are making.
I can comfortably predict a great fit of your new crowns, splints, Invisalign aligners, retainers, and anything else we scan for. That makes it worthwhile.
It’s one thing to restore your mouth to health, but I want, you want, and you deserve to rest assured that what is placed in your mouth is the best possible fit known to dentistry.
Digital scanning is here to stay at Family Dental Care. Feel free to ask us about our scanner. Garywilliamsdmd.com.
