Home gardeners like to complain about their gardens being overrun with zucchini when the fruit starts to kick into high gear in midsummer. But for people who love the prolific, vining summer squash, that’s a blessing and not a curse.There are just so many ways to incorporate zucchini into a warm-weather menu beyond the no-fail quick breads, vegetarian pasta dishes and fried appetizer we all know and love and try to replicate at home.Depending on what you serve it with, zucchini can be a really smart dish for the health-conscious. It’s one of the best sources of carotenoids (an antioxidant that can enhance your immune system and help prevent disease). Zucchini also has zero fat and is rich in water and fiber, two compounds which can aid healthy digestion. And one cup of raw, chopped green or yellow zucchini has just 33 calories.Because it has such a mild taste, it plays well with others, taking on the flavor of whatever it’s cooked or topped with.This simple Mediter...12 MLB teams score in double digits for 1st time since 1894, when record 13 accomplished feat

MANZANILLO, Mexico (AP) — Lost at sea for months on a disabled catamaran, with no way to cook and no source of fresh water but the rain, Australian Timothy Shaddock said he expected to die.There was a lot to like about the experience, he said. Like when he would plunge into the sea for a swim, or when his dog, Bella, would stir him to keep going. “I did enjoy being at sea, I enjoy being out there,” he said. He recalled the full moon in early May that illuminated his turn away from the Baja Peninsula, his last sight of land until he came ashore Tuesday. Shaddock, 54, smiling and good humored, was the living image of a castaway, with a long blonde beard and emaciated appearance, as he joked with a group of reporters Tuesday, standing in front of the fishing boat that rescued him at a port on Mexico’s Pacific coast. He granted that there were “many, many, many bad days,” but declined to elaborate.Shaddock and his dog left northwest Mexico in a catamaran in late April, he said, pl...Thai high court suspends prime minister candidate and will rule on whether he broke election law

BANGKOK (AP) — Thailand’s Constitutional Court on Wednesday agreed to suspend Move Forward Party leader Pita Limjaroenrat, a candidate to become prime minister, from his duties as a member of Parliament pending its ruling on whether he violated election law.The court’s announcement came on the verge of a likely second vote in Parliament whether to confirm Pita as prime minister. His party was the top finisher in May’s general election and assembled an eight-party coalition that won 312 seats in the House of Representatives. However, the coalition failed to win enough support in an initial vote last week from the Senate, which votes together with the lower house to name the new prime minister.The court’s announcement still would allow Pita’s nomination and selection as prime minister, at least until a ruling.Thailand’s state Election Commission had referred Pita’s case to the court, saying there was evidence he had violated election law over his alleged undeclared ownership of media ...Stock market today: Asian shares are mixed after Wall St logs 15-month high close on AI hopes

LOS ALAMOS, N.M. (AP) — The movie about a man who changed the course of the world’s history by shepherding the development of the first atomic bomb is expected to be a blockbuster, dramatic and full of suspense.On the sidelines will be a community downwind from the testing site in the southern New Mexico desert, the impacts of which the U.S. government never has fully acknowledged. The movie on the life of scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer and the top-secret work of the Manhattan Project sheds no light on those residents’ pain.“They’ll never reflect on the fact that New Mexicans gave their lives. They did the dirtiest of jobs. They invaded our lives and our lands and then they left,” Tina Cordova, a cancer survivor and founder of a group of New Mexico downwinders, said of the scientists and military officials who established a secret city in Los Alamos during the 1940s and tested their work at the Trinity Site some 200 miles (322 kilometers) away.Cordova’s group, the Tular...No winner in Tuesday’s Mega Millions drawing.

SALEM, Ore. (AP) — The announcement that authorities are holding a person of interest in the case of four women found dead this year around Portland has mothers of the victims hoping they may finally get answers about what happened to their daughters.
