Highlights of Today’s Show...
Interview with: Caitlin Doyle (POET), Lara Dien (ROMANCE AUTHOR) and a cameo from Carl Como (BIG810AM)

Orlando, FL. — YSL had all the punch and verve necessary for today’s show! Jose began the program with a rather interesting picturesque dialogue.

Usually we celebrate this weekend like a rose day but did he hand us a rose. Not at all! He introduces a charming yet colorful narrative on how to overlook the physical shortcomings after being in a relationship for awhile.

He spoke of romance. The initial courtship when you both were young swaying to those slow moving melodies and everything was new and fresh.

Then after years of togetherness there's a metamorphosis. For there sitting across from you is your woman where once she sat with long flowing hair now sat with curlers in her hair and you’re dying to get your figures through it but are afraid to. Her body hidden by a frumpy robe, her hair covered in curlers and her feet adorned with beat up slippers while she drinks her coffee.

If you thought that was brutal then he begins to describe the male counterpart drawing your thoughts to the young fine-looking man who once possessed a full head of hair.

He describes the male as one who wears nothing but his boxer shorts glasses planted firmly on the bridge of his nose a few breadcrumbs lodged on the side of his mouth caught on the hairs of his mustache; and, let’s bring to mind that gorgeous mane sadly replaced by baldness. A reminder of how sweet it was.

It’s no wonder co-host Haydee Ayala begins brimming with laughter as she cheers him on for creating an absolutely perfect dialogue for this holiday weekend. Who but Miranda could pull that off!

Next Jose presents Caitlin Doyle, a very confident and driven poet. Ms. Doyle arrived in the studio accompanied by Mr. Mike Robinson, who’s heavily involved with the Jack Kerouac House and its selection process.

After a few minutes into her interview it was definite that she had all the grits and skills a poet could ever need to succeed, in addition to being charming and easy to talk. No wonder she was bestow the winter term Writer-In-Residence at Kerouac House, a well-deserved addition to the many other honors she’s received for her works.

Before leaving the studio Miranda convinced Doyle to recite a poem for our listeners. Though it wasn’t one of her own, it was a favorite, “The Bat”. We were so touched by the words and meaning behind this beautiful poem that Jose invited her back.

Mr. Robinson who was also in the studio mentioned that the Kerouac House will be presenting a writer from England that could be available for an interview on YSL. And for our listeners who are into poetry or writing the KH looks at 80 to 100 submissions at a time and all are welcome to submit their works.

If you wish to read some of Caitlin’s poetry just key in her name CAITLIN DOYLE POETRY in search. This will pull up all the websites where you could find her or simply enter kerouacproject.org and listen to the Podcasts and writings from Ms. Doyle.

Following Ms. Doyle was the one and only Ms. Lara Dien. Dien who has made several appearances on YSL has always been invited back to this studio especially on Valentine’s Day. Could it be the underlying subject of her works or a combination of the woman and her stories?

Well, we’ll let you figure that one out for yourself. However, what will be said is that Jose and Haydee have read her thought provoking stories and have enjoyed each one immensely.

Her newest release HeatIndex is one steamy story. And, for those of you who missed the show Lara is going to be gifting to the first five (5) individuals who reach out to her a copy of this manuscript. Be brave! Reach out. Who knows you might be one of the lucky recipients to receive such a copy. And while you’re there do check out her other books, particularly Emerald Ecstasy. You won’t be disappointed.

You can reach Lara on Hearts and Handcuffs – it’s not the heat, it’s the steam or on The Wild Rose Press.

Of course the show would not have been complete without a cameo appearance by Mr. Carl Como, owner of the station, who congratulated YSL for one more successful year.

Well that concludes another hour of Yo Soy Latino. If you missed it, we encourage you to go to the archived shows on our website and listen to this week’s rendition of YSL’s Romantic Valentine’s Weekend an interview with guests Caitlin Doyle and Lara Dien.


Fashion...
February 12, 2011
Bring Back the Romance!
Yes, Valentine’s Day is fast approaching so here are a few tips to look beautiful and keep the temperatures sizzling indoors though some states may be freezing.

Warm each others hearts by wearing black sheer lace lingerie, white or red will do. It’s just right for setting the mood for a very special romantic night.

Add some jewelry. Consider long sparkling rhinestone drop earrings. These will certainly captures the rays from the lit candles that illuminate your bedroom while drawing attention to those rose pedals that blanket your bed. And of course, let’s not forget shoes to complete your seduction — a nice pair of sexy stilettos goes a long way.

Enhance the mood further with a hint of very dark chocolate on your night stand table. The chocolate is sure to increase his/her libido or sex drive for longer love making sessions.

The phenyl ethylamine found in chocolate gives the brain the feeling of being in love while the alkaloid (similar to caffeine) stimulates his/her soul. So make haste and stock up.

Don’t forget to share some strawberries with your love one. That’s a natural way of increasing one’s libido without the side effects of medication.

AND if you’re a bit creative give him/her a treat. Make some chocolate covered strawberries. Yes, they can be purchased as well. Not only is this one tasty indulgence but it will put the steam back in your romance.

Now put your lips together and pucker up. Happy Valentine’s Day!

Mmmm Recipe...
Seared Rib Steak With Argula

Prepare this boldly flavored steak as the centerpiece of his/her romantic menu to match their down-to-earth personality. It’s easy, fast to plan (suggestion: make ahead) and serves 2. Perfect for Valentine’s Day. Pair it with a light berry or red wine like the Seguin Manuel Bourgogne (2008).

Ingredients:
½ cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
¼ cup chopped rosemary
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Salt and freshly ground pepper
One 1-pd prime rib-eye steak, about 1 ¼ inches thick, fat trimmed
6 ounces Arugula, large stems discarded
Lemon wedges, for serving

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400°. In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of the olive oil with the chopped rosemary and bring to a simmer over moderate heat. Remove from the heat and let stand for 10 minutes. Strain the oil through a fine sieve and let cool completely; reserve 1/2 teaspoon of the rosemary. Whisk the balsamic vinegar into the oil and season with salt and pepper.

In a medium ovenproof skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil until shimmering. Season the steak with salt and pepper and cook over high heat until well browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Turn the steak, transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for about 8 minutes for medium-rare meat. Transfer the steak to a carving board and let rest for 5 minutes.

Toss the Arugula with 1 tablespoon of the rosemary vinaigrette and mound the salad on 2 dinner plates. Thinly slice the steak crosswise and arrange it over the Arugula. Sprinkle each serving with 1/4 teaspoon of rosemary and then drizzle with 1 teaspoon of the rosemary vinaigrette. Refrigerate the remaining vinaigrette for another use. Serve with lemon wedges.

MAKE AHEAD
The vinaigrette can be refrigerated overnight. Bring to room temperature before using.

Health....
Stop a Cold in Its Tracks
By Kimberly Holland (Edited version)

Here’s how to stop a cold before it takes hold — and feel better by tomorrow. Drink Plenty of Water or Juice – This will help to keep you hydrated.

Gargle with salt water - a teaspoon of salt to a glass of warm water will soothe.
Keep your nose clean - a saline nasal spray at the first sign of a cold may reduce their impact.

Within the first two hours - grab a pain reliever like acetaminophen to fight off achiness.

Skip the OTC cough medicine - Good old honey works just as well and tastes better.
The next six hours - if you can skip work do. Your body can fight off the virus better if you’re well-rested. But if you have to go in, it’s not the end of the world. Just steer clear of co-workers as best you can—the first few days of a cold is when you’re most contagious.

Don’t forget the fluids - Keep drinking plenty of water, juice, or tea—and have some chicken soup for lunch. Grandma’s favorite cure-all really does ease cold symptoms, research suggest

Shake it off - If you’re up for a little activity, take in some "light” exercise, but keep your heart rate just under 100. This can actually boost the immune system.
At the end of the day — Last chance for germ-fighting!

A healthy diet can help fuel the immune system, so choose a dinner that includes protein-packed foods like lean meat, fish, or beans, with a whole-grain side like brown rice and plenty of antioxidant-rich vegetables. And take a hot shower before bed if you’re still feeling stuffy. Then get a good night’s sleep.
The next day — All better?

If you feel worse or have a fever, start vomiting, or develop an increasingly bad headache, call your doctor as these are signs you’ve got something other than the common cold.

YSL Special Announcement...

99ers Want to Work, Bill S.3602 — Here’s what you need to do!
This is not the time to be silent. Let your voices be heard! There’s going to be HUGE hurdles to overcome in order for this bill to become law; and, vocal support is essential. Don’t delude yourself into thinking it will just happen. Too many hard working Americans are unemployed today. Just in Central Florida alone the unemployment rate is 11.9%.

If you are among the citizens who favor getting this bill passed, don’t wait for a miracle to happen, raise your voices loudly and clearly. Write to your Senators, Representative, and all other local officials. If you haven’t an idea on what to say, try this....


If the Tier 5 unemployment extension is not passed before you adjourn in October, I will make every effort via the internet and every other tactic I can think of to lobby voters in your state to make certain that you are not re-elected.

However if it is passed and you get the legislation on the docket, I will be the first to lobby in your state to vote for you.

I assure you the 99ers and all those in favor of getting this bill passed will act as one united force and we will attack any and all who oppose it in reference to their re-election bids.


This is not the time to leave a soft footprint, get those emails, faxes, make your calls but don’t delay!

And, for all those that are against, cut those 11.9% hardworking Americas some slack or better still offer them a job where they can support their families and keep a roof over their heads. After all, they’re not all lazy contrary to some opinions.

Movie Review...
Devil
3-Stars
Devil is what I would consider a mystery rather than a horror movie. It does a very good job of building tension playing on people’s superstitions but it was more cliché. The only time anything horrifying happens is when the lights go out, a sure clue someone is going to get killed.

Despite its predictability, it does have some merit. However, if you are looking for thrills or that adrenalin rush one gets from a horror movie, this is not one of those movies. Although, it will keep you sitting on your seat more for the intensity but not for the emotional physiological appeal that a horror film strives to create in the minds of its audience: fear, disgust, shock and terror.

Highlights of Today’s Show...
Interview with Elena Linares, Ray Barkley, and Keith Longmore
Orlando, FL. — Who needs a rattling alarm clock when the one and only talk show host, Jose Miranda, is willing to wake up his listeners with a roaring monologue before going on to discussing a few important issues, including taking a direct hit from the first caller. Talk about turning up the heat just to make a point! However, we did say this show is about dialogue whether we agree or disagree it is an open forum.

Unfortunately, YSL’s guest interviewee Jason Garcia was unable to make the show. Luckily the team was on point and there were other guests lined up for the hour.

Moving ahead, Jose introduces Ray Barkley from Cypress Cigars Club in Winter Haven. A cozy little establishment where one can relax to enjoy a good cigar. The atmosphere there is friendly. The leather seats inviting plus the high definition televisions make for an experience like none other. It’s no wonder it caught Miranda’s eye! If you want to visit their website go to www.cypresscigarclub.com.

Next on the YSL guest list is Elena Linares. Linares is the proprietor of Razzledazzle Barber Shop. A 40s New York style barbershop offering an array of real treats for men. The novelty here is you’re being pampered by seductive hot women wearing corsets and ready to give you the experience of a lifetime. And, of course there’s the gent who’s eager to give those grimy shoes one good old-fashioned spit shine while maintaining order. One can say this is your all-in-one barber shop and what man doesn’t wish to be spoiled rotten. If you happen to be in Miami or Coral Gables, stop in and tell them Yo Soy Latino sent you. Their prices are reasonable and gift certificates are available. However, to enjoy the full visual effects we suggest you go to www.razzledazzlebarbershop.com and sneak a peek for yourself.. You won’t be disappointed!

Last but not least on the YSL guest list is none other than Keith Longmore, publisher of West Orlando News and the Pine Hill News. Longmore when asked by Miranda, “What’s going on in the news today?” was quick to jump in and say, “the number of Floridians on food stamps today is huge. In 2008 it was about 31.6 million. A year later it increased to 37.1 million.”

“Though it has dipped slightly over the past year, according to the Department of Children and Families, workers are still seeing a load of about 57,000 cases per month. But what’s scary is that the unemployment data is not yet showing a decline, remaining steadfast at 11.4%.”

Unfortunately, that’s all the time we had. Remember voting season is just 6 weeks away before elections. Do your research, be informed and vote for the candidate that BEST represents you.

Fashion/Beauty...
Skinny Jeans — Hot 2011 Fashion Trend!
September 25, 2010
When it comes to the skinny jean there are a few things to consider. What fashion statement are you trying to achieve and what definitely adds a balance to the look since the purpose is to give you a more elongated, chic, sophisticated and fashionable form without making it too choppy or unflattering?

As you know 2011 is all about layering, creating a straight and narrow long slimming layers result. To enhance this hot fashion trend consider a long tunic, a cardigan sweater or tuxedo jacket, even a white tapered button down shirt. Any one of these tops goes really well with the skinny jean. However, if you prefer the loose flowing tops add tunics that are more narrow and straight or a belted cardigan perhaps a sleek vest worn over a loose t-shirt, which will look absolutely amazing when worn with a pair of skinny jeans.

To complete the look you may want to add a thin belt loosely hugging your hips, jewelry (a pair of dangling earrings), handbag, long silk scarf to wrap around your neck and of course the shoes. The ideal shoes will tie the outfit together perhaps high heeled booties maybe even a nice pair of stilettos or chic ballet flats for a more feminine fashion statement.

Also, try to avoid shirts tops or sweaters that fall above the waist as you want the eye to flow with no distractions. Remember the key fashion trend here is balance — a balance to the ensemble but more importantly to your silhouette and please don’t tuck in your tops. Fluidity and long flowing tops are much more flattering to the figure than their counterparts. Make sure your jeans are made with some Lycra or spandex as this will retain its bounce back shape after each wash.

Baseball Updates!
By Anthony Gaenzle
"The major league baseball regular season is down to the last two weeks and the playoff picture is starting to reveal itself.

In the National League the Phillies, despite being down 7 games less than 2 months ago, have been unstoppable as of late and lead the NL east by 7 games.

The Reds have the central division wrapped up as they lead the Cardinals by 7 games and in San Francisco, the Giants have made a comeback to lead the San Diego Padres by one game, in what is the only tight race in the national league.

On the other side of things, in the American League, the Minnesota Twins have secured their spot in the playoffs, celebrating with champagne showers as they lead the AL central by 11 and a half games.

The Texas Rangers are feeling confident with a 7 game lead in the west division.

That comfort level is not felt in the east however, as the Tampa Bay Rays lead the NY Yankees by only half a game.

Next Saturday tune in to get a final picture of who will be in the playoffs and who will be taking an early vacation."

Mmmm Recipe...
Swordfish Puttanesca
In Italian, Puttanesca literally means "Whore's Sauce". This titillating name comes from the fact that this sauce could be whipped up from staples you'd find in your cupboard and for all you unattached men out there it could be prepared on the fly for a lady. In our Swordfish Puttanesca, tart briny olives and capers tempered by rich pine nuts and sweet tomatoes counterbalance the oily texture of the fish.

WINE Suggestion:
2006 Marquis de Fesques Cassis, Domaine du Bagnol ($24)
2005 Trimbach Pinot Blanc, Alsace ($12)

Yields: 6 servings • Total Cook Time: 15 minutes • Prep Time: 10 minutes
Under 400 Calories! Carlories per Serving: 384

Ingredients:
2 lb swordfish steaks
1 cup Kalamata olives
1/2 cup capers
1/2 cup pine nuts
2 cup2 cherry tomatoes
2 cloves of garlic
1 lemon
2 tbsp butter
3 tbsps olive oil
handful of fresh parsley

Directions:
1.) Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2.) Place pine nuts on a baking sheet and toast in oven for 5 minutes or until browned.

3.) Roughly chop olives and parsley. Finely mince garlic and halve tomatoes. Zest the peel of the lemon and reserve the rest.

4.) In a large sauté pan, heat butter and 2 tbsps olive oil over medium-high heat. Lightly season swordfish on both sides with salt and fresh ground black pepper.

5.) When butter and olive oil start to smoke slightly, add swordfish. Sear 2 minutes on each side.

6.) Cover sauté pan, turn heat to medium-low, and let cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest.

7.) In a separate small sauté pan, add 1 tbsp of olive oil. Sauté garlic for 1 minute. Add pine nuts, olives, capers, tomatoes and lemon zest. Cook over medium to medium-low heat for 5 minutes or until tomatoes soften. Gently stir to ensure there is no burning.

8.) To plate, top swordfish steaks with puttanesca sauce. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and a squeeze of the reserved lemon.

The Green that Protects Your Tummy from Food Poising!
Any fan of Mexican food is familiar with cilantro. But here's something you may not know about it. The pungent green could fend off gut-cramping illness.

Potent compounds in cilantro appear to be quite a match against a strain of salmonella common in food poisoning. So go ahead and chop some cilantro into your next pool-party salsa. You just might keep the dip safer, thanks to the strong antibacterial action of substances in the green, and if you add extra onions to your salsa for good measure, they’ll help battle salmonella, too.

Upcoming Show.....
Izzy Sanabria!

Izzy Sanabria is most recognized as Master of Ceremonies with The Fania All-Stars. He is also remembered for his artistic abilities which graced the album covers of many of the great Latin artists. While some may think of him as “Mr. Salsa,” a name he designed himself during the 70s which stuck.

However, if you are like most you will associate him for his endeavors as the publisher of Latin New York. A publication which motivated other Latinos to branch out and create new magazines that revolutionized Latin culture, its artists, its actors, writers, musicians and the dance of New York known as SALSA. Of course, Symphony Sid played his part in this movement.

It is YSL’s pleasure to have as our guest of the hour, Mr. Izzy Sanabria. So come back next week October 2nd and join YSL hosts, Jose Miranda and Haydee Ayala as they stroll down memory lane on the Big 810 AM WEUS.

Interview with Keith Longmore

Review Summary
31/2 Stars
This was a suspenseful and for the most part a well-crafted film. It had plenty of shots of beautiful scenery in the Italian countryside but like Machete it had highs and lows throughout the movie.

Award Winner George Clooney is excellent! He plays this mysterious character with a tense singularity of purpose, an assassin who takes a vacation. Though he maintains his powerful screen presence, the movie lacks the oomph of Bourne. Overall, I must admit it did keep my interest!

Fashion/Beauty...
Stomping Feet!
September 18, 2010
Fashion Week is all about walking the walk. Just as the Emmy Awards gives you a preview of what we can expect for the season. However, some models including some of the celebrities like Lady Gala were in rare toe form.

We can all agree that Lady G is quite the entertainer most known for her songs and her outlandish outfits from head to toe. However, for those of you who saw the Awards you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about.

Shoes are my favorite vice! But, when I saw her lift her dress and took a good look at her shoes well that for me was a shoe stopper! Here I am week after week introducing grace, sophistication, glam, style but never did I think we would toss the perfect swag from one that would be stomping it!

If you are like most when it comes to fashion, all women reveal in their favorite vice: Shoes! And, I for one will be in the front row of Fashion Week to note the best and the worst. Not all shoes are hot, some do miss the mark.

What can we expect well there are platform ones, velvet ones, strappy ones to the more conservative or seductive studded booty. We can even track the fringe, cut-outs, and clogs as recurring trends on the fast-moving toes of the fashion set.

And from last season's favorites to brand new styles, with more suede, leather, and stride than you can shake a heel at. Except this time I have to say DON’T be a slave to fashion... unless you’re considering several trips to your podiatrist for problem feet.

Select shoes not for what’s in but for style comfort and appeal. I believe in putting the sexy back to your toes without sacrificing a woman’s feet or walk. Remember how you pamper your feet today will go a long way tomorrow in having healthy smooth feet.

NFL Updates
By Anthony Gaenzle
Week one of the NFL season is in the books. There are plenty of stories to tell, but I’ve narrowed it down to just a few due to time constraints.

The injury bug plagued the game pitting the Green Bay Packers against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Packers were dealt a huge blow when running back Ryan Grant went out with an injury and is not expected to be back this week.

The Eagles did not go unscathed themselves. Linebacker Stewart Bradley and Quarterback Kevin Kolb were both hurt. Both are listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions.

The injury to the Eagle’s quarterback opens the door for fallen start Michael Vick to step up and take the reigns at the position. If Kolb cannot play this Sunday and Vick has a decent game, Philly fans will have a frenzy of strongly voiced opinions ready for the media.

Eagle’s rival the New York giants got a win over the Carolina Panthers, despite 4 turnovers. The sloppy victory sends the Giants off to a 1 and 0 start despite Anthony’s prediction that the team will fail miserably.
As the season progresses we will continue to bring you the key points and latest happenings. Next week though we switch the focus to baseball as the playoffs loom in the distance.

Mmmm Recipe...
Potato Bacon Soup with Cheddar Cheese and Leeks
Creamy potato bacon soup is a wonderful dish to warm up with during winter. One of the highlights of this recipe is the mix of textures - a rich broth is thickened with potatoes and garnished with crisp bacon. Leeks also add a subtle flavor and cheddar cheese a touch of tang. This can also be made as a vegetarian dish excluding the bacon and using vegetable rather than chicken stock.

WINE Suggestion:
2002 Charles Schleret Riesling, Herrenweg, Alsace ($25)
2007 Chateau St. Michelle Riesling, Columbia Valley ($9)

Yields: 8 servings • Total Cook Time: 2 hours • Prep Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:
3 pounds Russett potatoes
3-4 leeks, cleaned with leaves removed
8 cups low-sodium chicken stock
1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup cream
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup sherry
3 tbsp butter
2 tbsps ground nutmeg
4 strips bacon
salt and pepper

Directions:
1.) Peel and halve potatoes. Coarsely chop leeks. Grate cheese. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2.) In a large stockpot, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add leeks and stir regularly for 5 minutes or until they become soft.

3.) Add potatoes and stock and bring to a simmer. Let simmer for 1 1/2 hours.

4.) Place bacon on a baking sheet and cook in oven for 20 minutes or until crisp. Remove from oven and place on paper towels to remove excess grease. When cooled, chop into bits and reserve.

5.) After simmering, add cream and sherry to the soup, then mix in a blender or in the pot using a hand-blender until smooth.

7.) Dredge grated cheese in flour and add to pot, stirring in until cheese is melted.

8.) Cook at a low boil, uncovered, for another 1/2 hour to allow mixture to cook down and thicken slightly.

9.) Season with nutmeg, and add salt and pepper to taste. To serve, ladle soup into bowls and top with bacon. Enjoy!

Health....
Top Pizza With This to Keep Arteries Clear!
Turn your pizza into a heart-friendly treat by halving the cheese and loading on this artery-loving topping instead: mushrooms.

Yep, a study had researchers wondering if mushrooms may have the power to stop artery-narrowing atherosclerosis before it even starts. Good news for your next pizza party and for your ticker. In the recent lab study, researchers noticed that bathing human aorta cells in mushroom extract seemed to interrupt two different inflammation-induced cellular processes known to trigger plaque buildup inside blood vessel walls.
It's not clear why the extract had this effect, but it could be due to any one of a number of nutrients in the fungi, including polyphenols, selenium, copper, and an antioxidant called ergothioneine. All of these nutrients may play a role in quelling inflammation and blocking the cellular mechanisms that trigger atherosclerosis.

Are you picky about mushrooms? No worries. The study used a wide array of varieties, including the very popular white button mushrooms easily found in most grocery stores. Use them to top pizzas, add them to stews for more flavor, or simply sauté and serve them on the side of whatever else you're cooking. More research is needed to confirm the artery benefits, but since mushrooms are low-cal and nutritious, you've got little to lose in adding them to your meals.

Review Summary
31/2 Stars
Machete is one action pack movie! Even the cast is very impressive (Danny Trejo, Steven Segal, Michelle Rodriguez, Cheech Marin, Don Johnson, Jeff Fahey, Jessica Alba, Robert DeNiro and Lindsay Lohan).

However, it is Trejo who gives his character a soul. He plays an ex-Mexican Federal police who seeks retribution on a former boss and fortuitously becomes a hero for the Mexican resistance.

Machete contains strong language, nudity and bloody violent images. Viewer discretion is advised. Unfortunately, the movie can be outright funny or drastically dull there's no happy medium. Even though Machete continues to be a movie attraction, I'm doubtful it will make the 2011 contenders list.

Highlights of Today’s Show...
Interview with Linda Rodriguez Bernfeld...
Orlando, FL — Once again YSL’s host Jose Miranda turns the studio on its ear as he begins the hour with one resounding Good Morning Vietnam! While co-host Haydee Ayala glances at him and smiles at his colorful and playful energy. After some light humor between the two hosts, Miranda starts talking on a more solemn note.

He opens with the disaster of September 11 thinking of all those individuals who perished that day. Those men and women regardless of the risks to themselves reaching out to help other survivors out of the debris of a fallen tower showed selfless heroism. More important, how Americans came together forgetting their differences and demonstrated unity under one nation.

Next Miranda addresses the lost of a colleague, radio talk show host George Crossley. Crossley who lived life doing what he believed in most, helping others less fortunate used his voice to create wakefulness in Orlando and will be missed.

Miranda turns to fellow host Haydee Ayala to learn what’s going on in the world of Fashion. Then it was on to movies. Following the review, Jose introduces Annie Adorno and Jetzy Ruiz. The two young ladies will host an hourly program on the Big 810AM WEUS called BidOnMyAuto.com beginning September 25th. The purpose of this show is to broadcast the many services and promotions available on www.bidonmyauto.com.

Before long, Darlyn Finch walks in as Annie and Jetzy leave the studio for another entertaining segment of Scribbles’ Corner! After a few comments and exchanges with Darlyn, host Jose Miranda introduces YSL’s scribbler Darlyn Finch. She engages in some light banter with the host before introducing today’s Scribbles’ guest, the delightful Linda Rodriguez Bernfeld. Then proceeds to ask her first question, what does the SCBWI stand for?

Bernfeld, who is an accomplished writer herself, is the Regional Advisor for SCBWI Florida, which stands for Society of Children’s Books Writers and Illustrators. An organization which brings together writers of every genre, illustrators of picture books, middle grade readers and young adult novels for children and teen.

Darlyn then asked, “What is the purpose of the SCBWI Critique Groups?” Linda replies these groups are designed to help writers develop their craft and are free to anyone who wishes to participate. They meet up monthly to review material but after the first encounter most join. For dates go to www.scbwiflorida.com and click on the Critique Group tab.

The end to the hour approaches and Linda imparts her wisdom to all new writers. Keep right on writing read all books that relate to your field and whenever possible attend the conferences. These conventions are worthwhile as it allows members and nonmember to network directly with publishers and agents. If you need more information on the SCBWI go to www.scbwiflorida.com. And of course if you wish to reach out to Darlyn Finch go to www.darlynfinch.com.

The Best of the Coat Trends: The Aviator Jacket
September 11, 2010
The aviator jacket represents the BEST of the coat trends this fall, having been reworked in every possible way. From an exaggerated collar that give a modern twist to an otherwise humdrum neckline to those fabric favorites like soft leather and sheep skin! Plus, it is adorned with buckles and straps with gilets for added contrast and oomph.

This coat is ideal mainly because it can be worn with just about anything, from a sheath dress to those tight skinny jeans. To change the look a bit and give it a flirty feel, roll up the sleeves add some elbow length leather gloves and pair it with some knee high boots. But, if you prefer a more womanly look, consider the new maxi-length jersey skirts add a white shirt and pair it with a thin delicate ankle strap high heel shoe. You will surely be the envy of the office.

Also, wear your hair up or pulled away as this gives more definition to the face and jaw-line and will balance out the oversized collar.


The Sports Section...
NFL Opening Week
The National Football League season kicked off Thursday night, as last year’s defending champion New Orleans Saints took on old man Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings.

The game was billed as an epic rematch of last year’s NFC championship game, in which a late interception of a Brett Favre pass, gave the Saints the win in overtime and a trip to the Super Bowl.

This year’s game, however, did not live up to the hype. In the end the Saints came away with a 14-9 win in a sloppy endeavor on both team’s parts. Sunday brings a new set of games, with a hope for more finely tuned play.

I’m Anthony Gaenzle and that’s it for sports this week. Come back next week for more on The Sports Section!

Mmmm Recipe...
Turkey Empanadas with Cranberry Pneapple Salsa
Got turkey leftovers? This recipe is inspired by the day after Thanksgiving but is terrific for any occasion where you've got some extra roast turkey meat and want to do something fun! These empanadas are lighter and easier than a traditional version, using phyllo dough instead of a heavier dough base. A cranberry pineapple sauce complements the turkey flavor.

WINE Suggestion:
2006 Domaine Jean-Marc Pillot, Les Grandes Terpes ($30)
2009 Georges deBoeuf Beaujolais Nouveau ($10)

Yields: 8 servings • Total Cook Time: 30 minutes • Prep Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:
1 lb roasted dark turkey meat
2 sheets frozen phyllo dough
1 can sweet corn, drained
1 can black beans
1 onion
1 clove garlic
1 lime
1 tbsp cinnamon
1 tbsp of olive oil
2 cups apple cider
1 cup orange juice
2 cups whole cranberries
1 cup pineapple chunks, drained
1/4 cup of sugar

Directions:
1.) Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2.) Roughly chop turkey meat, onion and cilantro; mince garlic. Heat olive oil in a skillet and cook garlic and onions until translucent, about 3 minutes.

3.) Add corn, beans, lime juice and turkey and cook for an additional two minutes. Remove from heat, let cool, and stir in cilantro.

4.) Take phyllo dough and roll out into rectangles 4" x 3" in size. Fill a glass with water and wet edges. Add a spoonful of turkey mixture in the middle of each, fold over into a triangle and use a fork to press shut around edges.

5.) Brush outside of empanadas with olive oil and bake in oven for 25 minutes.

6.) While empanadas are baking, add cranberries, orange juice and cider in a sauce pan. Bring to a boil and let simmer for 15 minutes. Add sugar and pineapple and cook for another 15 minutes.

7.) Finish sauce by adding to a blender and puree until smooth. Plate empanadas with sauce on the side, and a garnish of cilantro and lime wedge. Enjoy!

5 Ways to Boost Your Water Intake
1. Use a Water Filter like Brita or PUR.

2. Meet the Intake Guidelines — if you eat 2,000 calories then you should be drinking 2,000 mL.

3. Avoid drinking at Night at least two hours before bedtime as this can result in waking up during the night to urinate and un-refreshing sleep.

4. Drink Filtered Water. Drinking tap water can be contaminated with heavy metals, micro-organisms, chlorine, fluoride and other impurities.

• You can improve the quality of drinking water by filtering with a reverse osmosis system, charcoal, ceramic, or other high quality filter.

• Check bottled water — some types are not spring water but actually purified water from the same source as tap water.
• Store water in glass containers. Avoid the plastic water bottles you find at the store. If you do drink water from a soft, clear water bottle, do not reuse it.
• Avoid drinking distilled water regularly, because it can deplete your body of needed minerals.

5. Drink Warm or Room Temperature Water — You wouldn’t water your plants with freezing cold water or put icy water into your pet’s water bowl, would you? In Traditional Chinese Medicine, cold drinks disrupt the proper flow of energy in the body and “shock” the body. Stick to warm or room temperature fluids.

Review Summary
2 Stars
The dialogue in this film is a bit clichéd yet laughable and the stunt work amazing. There’s one chase scene that will have you rooting for both the cops and robbers. However, the movie is far more concerned with style, architectural, pretty faces and wardrobe, rather than substance. There just wasn’t enough meat to make it worth your time.

Fall Fashion Classics!
September 4, 2010
A great tailored jacket! Make sure it’s fitted to show off your feminine curves as this jacket will pair with just about everything from work trousers to jeans. Steer clear of those baggy masculine styles. A more tailored look will add structure to your figure: giving curvy girls more angular lines, creating a slimmer waistline for those boyish figure types while smoothing out lumps and bumps for all other shapes. Pick out fabrics like tweed, corduroy, denim or menswear plaids; or go grand with velvet, leather, and brocade.

A crisp long-sleeve white shirt is ideal for any fall wardrobe. The varieties are endless — cotton with stretch, fitted silhouettes, cuff and sleeve details collar variations — no matter the selection each works well with cardigans to jackets or just on their own with any wide-leg trouser.

Pantsuits may be this season’s best choice in power suits for the working woman. Not only are they perfect for the office but they also pull their weight after hours when paired with a silky camisole and heels. A solid black pantsuit is by far the most flattering and the most classic. Look for a fabric with drape nothing too stiff or shiny but with some stretch for comfort.

As necklines come and go the turtleneck sweater has earned its place as a classic. Here's why:

• The turtleneck draws attention to your face.
• If you don't like the bulk of a turtleneck consider a mock turtleneck as another option. It's the same height the difference is that the fabric doesn't fold back over.
• Stick with cozy, touchable materials for your turtleneck sweater because you don’t want anything itchy or scratchy on your neck area as it can be unbearable and more importantly you don’t want to be tugging at it all day or night.
• The black turtleneck is the ultimate because it creates a clear clean palette to show off wonderful necklaces, cuff bracelets or just your pretty face.

A neutral coat is a must for the season, especially one in a camel color. Not only is it an enduring fall classic, but it also has many possibilities.

Knee-high boots make great sense for fall because they let you get more wear out of everything from skinny jeans to miniskirts. Choose a mid-heel height for the most trend-proof look (something 2 inches or less). Brown boots are a great choice if you wear lots of denim BUT black boots pair with almost everything.

Accessorize by adding some bold oversized feminine pearls and layer them. Pearls are the perfect trend-proof accessory to compliment even the more structured styles of fall. Wear charcoal gray pearls mixed with black for a sexy tonal look; or choose layers of creamy white pearls worn with a simple black sheath dress for a perfect evening look. However, if you want a more edgy form wear a leather sheath with the pearls. No matter what style of dress you use the pearls will undeniably add that extra oomph.

Large leather bags will serve you well with the onset of cooler weather because you’ll be able to carry everything you need comfortably (umbrellas, wraps, whatever). The leather bag doesn't have to be boring either as there are many styles to choose from — logo types, patent, exotic skins, quilting, bold hardware, bright colors and much more — but the most classic looks have a ladylike feel to them and understated luxury, unlike those in-today/out-tomorrow bags. It's one splurge you'll be smiling about simply because you’ll get lots of mileage on your investment.


The Sports Section...
Major League Baseball – The National League Pennant Race
We continue this week, talking about the Major League Baseball playoff race. Our focus will shift from the American League to the National League, as things really start to heat up.

In the National League’s Central division, the bats have really been connecting for the upstart Cincinnati Reds as they extend their division lead to 7 and a half games over the struggling St. Louis Cardinals. The Cardinals were a pre-season favorite to win the Central, but the Reds have other plans.

In the East division, the Atlanta Braves cling to a 3 game lead over the Philadelphia Phillies. The Braves were unable to capitalize on a dismal performance by the Phillies who lost four straight games to Houston. The Phillies have been in the World Series each of the last two years and now find them self in an unfamiliar spot, fighting just to make the playoffs.

The San Diego Padres have a 4 game lead over the San Francisco Giants for the 3rd automatic playoff bid, as they lead the National League West division.

The winners of each of the three divisions earn an automatic spot in the National League playoffs. The 4th and final spot is up for grabs in the wild card race. The team with the best record out of all non-division winners in the National League will take that spot.

Currently the Philadelphia Phillies are leading the wild card race by 1 and a half games over San Francisco. The Colorado Rockies are in third, trailing the Phillies by 4 and a half games.

That is all for the sports section for this week. More next week from the amazing Anthony!

Mmmm Recipe...
New York Strip Steak
This recipe calls for a great cut of New York strip steak not overly lean so it stays juicy during cooking but delivers great full flavor and meaty texture. Combine it with a flavorful simple Red Wine Sauce and a delicious side of thick-cut Parmesan French Fries and you have one delicious meal. The red wine sauce gets a boost from sliced shallots, and slow reduction concentrates flavors.

WINE Suggestion:
2005 Hall Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley ($40)
2005 E. Guigal, Côtes du Rhone ($10)

Yields: 4 servings • Total Cook Time: 30 minutes • Prep Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:
2 lbs New York strip steak
4 russett or Idaho potatoes
5-6 cups of vegetable oil
3 tbsps extra virgin olive oil
1 cup red wine
1/2 cup beef stock
1/4 cup grated parmesan
1 large shallot
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp tomato paste
2 tbsps parsley

Directions:
1.) Preheat oven to 400 degrees and season steak on both sides with salt and fresh pepper. Peel potatoes and cut into long, thin strips. Slice shallot into rings. Chop parmesan.

2.) Melt butter in a sauce pan, add shallots, and stir until they soften.

3.) Add wine to deglaze the pan, using a wooden spoon to dislodge any browned bits and dissolve into sauce. Add beef stock and tomato paste. Simmer on low heat, stirring occasionally.

4.) Heat vegetable oil over high heat in medium-sized pot. Fill until about 2" of oil are in pot - the amount needed will depend on the dimensions of your pot.

5.) Check that oil is hot enough by carefully inserting one test into oil - if it bubbles, it's ready. If it doesn't, increase temperature slightly, wait and retest. When ready, slowly add potatoes since oil will increase in volume. Stir occasionally for 20 minutes or until edges are nicely brown.

6.) In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Place steaks in skillet and sear 1 minute on each side.

7.) After searing, move skillet to oven to finish. Steaks will take 12 minutes for medium rare. If preferred more or less done, adjust cooking time.

8.) Strain fries from oil and dry on paper towels. Lightly salt then toss with parsley and parmesan.

9.) Let steaks rest, then slice, plate with sauce and fries, and serve!

Can Autism be Detected in Infants 6 Months Old?
A new study reveals that scientists may have uncovered signs of autism in 6-months old babies. Though the report is still uncertain, it is best to be aware of the warning signs so that you can alert your pediatrician if you notice them in your baby. Here are a few possible warning signs to determine if your child’s development warrants further testing by your pediatrician.

By 2 to 3 months, your baby isn't making frequent eye contact.

By 3 months, he isn't smiling at you and the sound of your voice.

By 6 months, he doesn't laugh or make other joyful expressions.

Around 8 months, he isn't following your gaze when you look away from him towards something else.

By 9 months, he hasn't begun to babble.

By 1 year, he isn't consistently turning to you when you call his name. He shows a general disregard for vocalizations (i.e., lack of response to his name), but has a keen awareness of environmental sounds. Also, he isn't engaging in back-and-forth vocalizations with you, hasn't begun to wave bye-bye or he isn't "following a point" (looking towards something you point at).

By 16 months, he has no words.

By 18 months, he isn't pointing to things that interest him.

By 24 months, he has no two-word meaningful phrases.

At any time, he shows a loss of any of his previously mastered skills.

Lottery Ticket
Review Summary
3 Stars
Kevin Carson played by Bow Wow wins $370 million in a nationwide lottery. Suddenly everyone in the hood discovers he has the winning ticket and now is forced to find ways to survive the greedy and intimidating actions of the people in the hood. Over a three-day holiday weekend no less before he can actually claim his prize.

And for anyone who grew up in the projects you’ll be able to relate too much of the stereotype that goes along with life in public housing. However, Ice Cube is the real surprise. He plays a picture perfect character of a senile old man complete with spectacles, false teeth and a graying beard. Just seeing him give a contemporary Shakespearean slant to his character is worth the ticket alone. The film is one delightfully funny “hood” comedy with heart.

Highlights of Today’s Show...
Interview with Danny Ramos and Keu Reyes
Orlando, FL — Today YSL’s host Jose Miranda opens with one lively animated, “Good Morning Viet Nam!” A little exuberant perhaps maybe even unorthodox, nonetheless it got everyone’s attention for you knew things were going to be shaken up a bit. With the phone lines opened, Miranda kicks off on a cool and swinging note, the Glenn Beck rally, which took place today on the anniversary of Dr. King’s 1963 march in Washington on the very spot where Dr. King recited his speech “I have A Dream”.

Beck insist he was reasserting the “civil rights” that Dr. King pursued during his life was this coincidence, a twist of fate, divine intervention or an exploitation to promote another agenda; and, let’s not forget the tea party’s darling Sarah Palin, a woman who marches to her own drummer. Immediately the phone lines were ringing and the conversation in the studio got somewhat heated. However, the reality of mixing both ideologies that of Dr. King to Glenn Beck and the Tea Party is about as compatible as night and day.

Changing strategies a bit Miranda turns to YSL’s co-host Haydee Ayala for a look into fashion and this week’s movie pick. Before engaging guest, Danny Ramos, CEO of the National Hispanic Corporate Achievers (a non-profit organization) into a conversation about the recently passed license plate which allows Florida drivers to express pride in their Hispanic heritage.

This specialty plate we’re told will be going into production soon and should become available to the many Latinos who live in Florida within the next two years. All profits from the tag would be split into administrative cost, local grants and the reminder used for scholarships and programs throughout the state. We as Latinos express our pride in our music, in our dance, in our culture so why not in unity, reserve your plate today! If you wish to reach out to Danny Ramos go to www.hispanicachievers.org.

Next, Jose introduces Keu Reyes, writer/director/producer/actor and comic for Latino 101. After an exchanged of pleasantries and maybe a brief conversation on what he thought about Beck’s rally, Miranda decides to give Keu a little good-natured ribbing before discussing the latest going ons with Latino 101, including this season guests beginning with Edward James Olmos and Cheech & Chong.

Latino 101 can be seen on SiTV every Friday at 9 p.m. You can reach out to Keu on LinkedIn and Facebook or simply drop him an email at keu@artisticwarfare.com.

Best Mascaras on the Market!
August 28, 2010
If you want the very best mascara that will make your lashes appear long, full and lush while never looking clumpy, or running onto your face, here are ten suggestions:
1. Best Overall Mascara: Lancôme Definicils

2. Best Volumizing Mascara: Prescriptives 'Lash Envy' Mascara for full plum lashes all day

3. The Celebrity Favorite Mascara: Bobbi Brown 'Everything'

4. Best Drugstore Buy: Maybelline Great Lash (best waterproof mascara on the market). It doesn't clump, lasts a long time and won't come off easily.

5. Best Multi-Talented Mascara: Revlon Luxurious Lengths Mascara. At $6.99 you get a lot for your money: A flat side that layers on gel-based color and a curved side that lifts and separates lashes.

6. Best Volume Mascara: Rimmel Sexy Curves Mascara a must-have because it makes your eyes look super big.

7. Makeup Artist's Favorite Mascara: Maybelline XXL Volume + Length

8. Great Overall Budget Mascara: L'Oreal Voluminous — this mascara enhances with hair conditioners panthenol and cermide-R, this product is a must-have, no clumping.

9. Best for Super-Thick, Long Lashes: Lancôme Hypnose — the effect of this mascara is much like that of false eyelashes and a favorite.

10. The Hottest Mascara Trend of the Moment: Blinc's "Tube" Mascara because it creates tiny, water-resistant "tubes" around lashes, which makes them appear thicker and longer than lashes painted by common mascaras.


The Sports Section
Baseball – The Final Stretch by Anthony Gaenzle
For this week’s sports section we are going to shift the focus from football to baseball.

As the season approaches the final stretch, the race to make the playoffs is heating up. This week the focus is on the American league.

With four playoff spots available in the American league, it’s clear that Florida’s own Tampa Bay Rays and the N.Y. Yankees are well in control. Only one however, can win the automatic pennant spot by winning the division.

The other has to maintain their momentum and simply stay in the first spot of the wildcard race. Three American League teams get automatic spots by winning their division and the fourth spot is up for grabs in the form of a wildcard spot.
The Yankees and Rays are even up at 78 wins and 49 losses a piece, each a league best. The way it stands now they both look set to make the playoffs.

The Minnesota Twins lead the Chicago White Sox by 3 and a half games in the American League Central and the Texas Rangers are dominating the American League West, leading the Oakland A’s by 8 and a half games.

Next week we will shift the focus to the National League teams, covering the race between the Philadelphia Phillies and Atlanta Braves for the National League East and all the rest of the excitement. Stay tuned for that.

Mmmm Recipe...
Fun Appetizer! Steak Lettuce Wraps
Steak lettuce wraps are a fun appetizer to serve at a party because guests can construct them themselves, and are so simple to make you can also enjoy them any night of the week. Made from a lean but still flavor cut of beef - the top blade, or flat iron - this cut is flavorful and juicy still when quickly seared and is quite affordable. A tangy sauce made of lime and mint adds an exotic, fresh flavor.


You might think that the best wine pairing with any steak dish is always going to be a rich red, but with this preparation we find that a lively rosé is just right. Rosé will liven up the taste buds over appetizers, and has the bright acidity to work well with the citrus elements in the dish. Our 'steal' rosé is from the Northwest U.S., and our 'Splurge' is from one of our favorite parts of the world - Provence.

WINE Suggestion:
2009 Domaines Ott Les Domaniers, Côtes de Provence — From the reigning region of rosé - Provence. Classic, elegant and refreshing! ($19.99)

"Steal"
2009 Murphy's Law Rosé,Northwest U.S. — A blend of grapes from both Oregon and Washington states, using traditional Rhone varieties. ($12)

Yields: 8 servings • Total Cook Time: 15 minutes • Prep Time: 2-24 hours to marinade

Ingredients:
1 lb top blade steak (about 4 cuts)
1 head of Boston lettuce
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
4 tbsp olive oil
6 clementines or other tangerines
2 limes
1 bunch fresh mint leaves

Directions:
1.) To prep the steaks, feel the area through the middle of the steak for a streak of tough connective tissue. Divide each steak cut in half along this area and trim it away. Season both sides with salt and fresh ground pepper.
2.) In a medium bowl, add juice from the clementines, with 1/4 cup vinegar and honey. Add steaks and marinade in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours.

3.) In a blender, mix juice from the limes, mint leaves, 1/4 cup vinegar and 2 tbsp olive oil. Make sure to season with salt and pepper to taste.

4.) Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large pan and sear each steak about 1 minute on each side for medium rare. If you prefer more doneness, cook up to an extra minute on each side for well. Place meat on a fresh plate to rest for 5 minutes.

5.) After resting, slice steak into 1" strips. Wash and dry the lettuce, pulling apart individual leaves.

6.) Serve steak and lettuce leaves with mint sauce on the side. Your guests can make their own wraps by placing a steak strip in the center of a lettuce leaf, and dressing with sauce. Simply roll up and enjoy!

Enjoy Spot-Free Skin with this Dark Red Fruit!
Sun spots are right up there with wrinkles when it comes to the list of skin defects we'd all rather avoid. But keeping sun spots at bay may be as easy as munching on sweet, tangy pomegranate seeds.

Sunscreen is step one in avoiding sun spots. But according to Allison Tannis, author of Feed Your Skin, Starve Your Wrinkles, nutrients found in deep ruby-red pomegranate seeds may hinder abnormal changes in skin color brought on by long-term sun exposure.

Pomegranate Protection
The main nutrient in question is Ellagic acid. But that's not all. The age-fighting antioxidants in pomegranates may be particularly skin-friendly as well. In fact, Tannis claims that the antioxidant capacity of pomegranates is so powerful that they're able to neutralize twice as many skin-damaging free radicals as red wine, and seven times as many free radicals as green tea.

Cool the Flames
Pomegranates are also loaded with anthocyanins — powerful inflammation-fighting antioxidants that give the pomegranate even more super-for-your-skin status. So pick up a pom, and pop out those seeds. Or save yourself the inconvenience by buying frozen or refrigerated packages of pre-extracted pomegranate seeds from the grocery store. They're great in cereal and oatmeal, on yogurt or salad, or just by the handful. Or simply buy some juice, and cool down with this thirst-quenching Hibiscus-Pomegranate Iced Tea recipe (for recipe go to realage.com.
