Another competitive auction,
won by North-South due to
the vulnerability — it was too
dangerous for East-West to bid on.
The heart lead was obviously
from shortness. There was a
loser in each suit, but dummy’s
diamonds offered the potential
to develop an extra trick for a
discard. South won the opening
lead in hand with the ace and led
a low diamond, ducked by West
and won with dummy’s queen.
Had South played a trump at this
point, West would have grabbed
his ace and led another heart.
That would establish a heart trick
for the defense, which East would
cash when he obtained the lead
with a club.
Seeing this danger, declarer
made the excellent play of exiting
dummy with a club at trick three.
This forced East to use his entry
before it could do him any good.
East played his queen of hearts,
setting up his jack, but he had
no entry to cash it. South won
dummy’s king and finally led a
trump. West won the ace and tried
another club, but declarer ruffed,
drew the last trump, and led
another diamond. West won his
ace, but there was no way for the
defense to get a heart trick. The
nine of trumps remained in dummy
as an entry to the established
diamond, and South had a parking
place for his heart loser. Well
played!

WHAT’S FOR DINNER?
BY LINDA CICERO
THE MIAMI HERALD
I am an avid follower of
Robert Irvine’s “Restaurant: Impossible” on the
Food Network. I love how
this big, tough, fit guy
grouses and slams but in
the end does all he can to
save a failing restaurant
and rescue dreams.
So I was intrigued when
he teamed with Gold’s Gym
to offer recipes that could
make backyard barbecue
meals less calorie-dense.
I was drawn to his
“Cuban” chicken, which
is quite delicious and has
some resemblance to Cuban cooking with the lime
and grilled onions, though
the Cajun seasoning is
another matter.
You can find more of his
recipes at goldsgym.com.
Robert Irvine’s Cuban Chicken
3 pounds boneless chicken breast
3 tablespoons Cuban dry rub (recipe
follows)
1 cup cilantro chimichurri (recipe follows)
1 Vidalia onion, sliced in ½-inch rings
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
½ bunch cilantro
12 lime wedges
Preheat grill and rub chicken on
both sides with the Cuban rub. Brush
sliced onion with grapeseed oil and
season with salt and pepper. Place
chicken on the grill and cook until done
and internal temperature reaches 165
F. Add the seasoned onions to the grill
when chicken is almost done. Grill
onions on both sides while keeping the
sliced onion rings together; this will
make them easier to grill.
Once onions are tender and chicken is done, let the chicken rest while
grilled onions are placed into a mixing
bowl. Squeeze 6 of the lime wedges
on top of the onions. Add some of the
cilantro sprigs into the bowl with the
warm grilled onions and lime juice.
Season the onions with salt and pepper,
toss gently and set aside. Scatter the
warm grilled onions on top of the
sliced chicken, drizzle with the cilantro
chimichurri and garnish with the
remaining cilantro sprigs. Serve the
remaining chimichurri and lime wedges on the side. Makes 6 servings.
Cuban dry rub: To make the Cuban
dry rub, mix together 2 tablespoons
ground cumin, 2 tablespoons paprika,
2 teaspoons garlic powder, 1 teaspoon
crushed red pepper, 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning and 1 tablespoon salt.
Chimichurri: To make cilantro chimichurri, puree 1 bunch each roughly
chopped cilantro and parsley, 1 dash
crushed red pepper, 3 garlic cloves,
1 cup grapeseed oil, juice of 1 lemon,
zest of 2 lemons, 1 tablespoon red wine
vinegar and 2 tablespoons water.

Happy birthday for Wednesday, Aug. 6, 2014:
This year you will be very lucky. You have entered the first
year of a 12-year luck and life cycle. You might surprise
yourself with how many risks you take, but a certain level
of caution would be wise. If you are single, you will find
many potential and alluring sweeties around you. If you are
attached, the two of you will become much closer than you
have been in the past, especially if you share more of your
newfound adventuresome spirit. Sagittarius often intrigues
you, but he or she is always off on a new adventure. How will
you ever find time to get to know each other?
The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic;
4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★★★ — You instinctively make
the right choices. In fact, you are far more fortunate than
you realize. You could feel as if you finally see a clear path
to a goal and are able to walk through it. You might have to
repeat what you are doing once more. Tonight: Follow the
music.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★★★ — Relate to a partner
directly. One-on-one relating could take you down a new path.
You might be looking at building greater security. A family
member will play an important role in your mood, and you’ll
gain a new insight as a result. Tonight: Invite someone over.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★★★ — Keep a conversation
flowing. Don’t nix any ideas, because you might not have all
the facts. Listen to what is important, and do your best not
to exclude any details. You know where you are going and
why. Do not allow someone to change your mind. Tonight:
Out and about.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★★★ — You could be weighing
the pros and cons of a new expenditure. You might think
that you have the right price in mind, but there will be
additional costs. A friend is likely to surprise you with his or
her actions. Be aware of your limits. Tonight: Go along with a
suggestion.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★★ — You seem to be able to
do no wrong. You express optimism in a way that lifts up
others who could be a bit down. An unexpected insight will
emerge because of the intensity of the moment. Know that
you might need to rehash a conversation today. Tonight: As
you like it.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★ — You know more than
you are revealing. You have made a choice to stay quiet and
keep your own counsel. If you listen carefully, you will learn
even more. Note what is not being said as well. A partner or
friend tosses an unusual insight your way. Tonight: Make it
early.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★★ — You will say what you
think, and others will hear you. However, it seems as if you
might have to repeat this conversation one more time. An
unexpected opportunity is likely to occur, as a loved one
seems more open and willing to respond. Tonight: Hang out
at home.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★ — Stay on top of a
situation, and understand your limits. You might not want to
deal with a demanding person, boss or older relative. You
will get plenty of opportunities to open up this conversation.
Tonight: In the limelight.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★★ — Your spontaneity
comes forward, and it will make you nearly irresistible when
dealing with certain key people. Your perspective might
change because of a conversation and an ability to detach,
which will allow greater give-and-take. Tonight: All smiles.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★ — You don’t need
to make the first move, by any means — you have choices.
Start claiming your power, and realize that you need to create the right situation for you. Allow someone else to make
the first move for a while. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.”
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★★★ — You could be
surprised by all the activity that surrounds you. Be gracious
for a declaration or offer, yet know that it will need to be
repeated again. You see how quickly people’s moods are
changing. Ask for more of what you need. Tonight: Say “yes”
to an offer.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★ — Your ability to accept what is acceptable and to work within those constraints
can and will make all the difference. You might want to have
a discussion with a boss, a respected friend or a parent. The
more suggestions, the better your judgment will be. Tonight:
In the thick of things.
