Penne With Chicken and Preserved Lemon

You Need Posted on by

When it comes to getting enough protein–from a lean source–chicken is pretty much the MVP. But it can get boring to eat plain chicken breast over and over again. Luckily, we’ve got a flavorful chicken recipe for you that will totally change up your chicken-cooking game. We’ll show you how to make this quick dinner in the video above. Bonus: It has tons of healthy fiber in it too, so you’ll get a nutritious, complete meal in minutes.

One easy way this recipe changes up traditional chicken breast dishes is by not making it the star of the dish. The chicken is mixed in with whole-wheat pasta, which provides fiber and healthy carbs to help fuel you. Whole-wheat pasta is also a low-glycemic food, meaning unlike sugary white pasta, it won’t spike your blood sugar and have you headed for an energy crash later. This pasta keeps your blood sugar and energy steady.

This dish also stars lemon and broccoli rabe, which are full of health-protective antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Garlic adds immune-boosting properties, and parmesan cheese adds calcium and more protein to the dish. You’ll get 35 grams of protein for just 424 calories per serving. Not bad for a chicken and pasta dish!

Try this dish for a fast weeknight dinner, and if you have leftovers, pack them for lunch the next day. The nutrient-dense, balanced meal is just what your body needs after a long day or a tough workout–it will replenish the nutrients you lost, fill you up so you won’t need to snack afterwards, and give you plenty of energy.

Sport24.co.za | Nadal ends Anderson’s dream US Open run

You Need Posted on by

New York – Rafael Nadal raced to a third US Open title and 16th Grand Slam crown on Sunday with a 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 rout of South Africa’s Kevin Anderson.

AS IT HAPPENED: Kevin Anderson v Rafael Nadal

The world number one, the champion also in New York in 2010 and 2013, added the US title to the record 10th French Open he captured in June.

Old rival Roger Federer won the season’s other two Slams at the Australian Open, beating Nadal in the final, and Wimbledon in an illustration of the two Grand Slam greats’ enduring appeal and power.

Nadal’s Grand Slam tally is just three behind Federer’s record 19.

For Nadal, it was his fifth title of the year and 74th of his career while the $3.7 million winner’s prize boosted his earnings to a shade under $90 million.

It was a desperately disappointing day for Anderson, the world number 32 playing in his maiden Slam final at the 34th attempt.

He was the first South African in a US championship final since Cliff Drysdale in 1965 and was bidding to become his country’s first Slam champion since Johan Kriek at the 1981 Australian Open.

The Johannesburg-born, Florida-based Anderson finished the 2hr 28min final with 40 unforced errors to Nadal’s 11, failing even to carve out a single break point.

In a final guaranteed to result in the fifth Slam champion in succession who is 30 or older, Nadal was on top from the start.

He had 28th-seeded Anderson scrambling to save two break points in the third and fifth games before the Spaniard converted his fifth off a forehand error for a 4-3 lead.

The world number one held and broke again, cleverly forcing the 31-year-old South African out of position on set point after 58 minutes of action.

By the end of the opening set, Nadal had just five unforced errors to Anderson’s 23 with the South African unable to muster a single break point.

The one-way traffic continued in the second set as Nadal broke for 4-2 off the back of three successive volleys.

Anderson even collected a time violation for his troubles as his efforts to compose himself failed horribly.

A brutal crosscourt forehand winner gave Nadal the second set 6-3.

Anderson was broken again in the opening game of the third set.

It was his fourth loss of serve in the final; before Sunday, he had been broken just five times in the entire tournament.

Anderson called the trainer for a bloodied right index finger after the fifth game, but his struggles continued.

He saved a match point but Nadal wrapped it up with a clinical backhand volley.

Results from the 14th and final day of the US Open on Sunday (x denotes seeding):

Men’s singles

Final

Rafael Nadal (ESP x1) bt Kevin Anderson (RSA x28) 6-3, 6-3, 6-4

Boys singles

NEW YORK – Rafael Nadal raced to a third US Open title and 16th Grand Slam crown on Sunday with a 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 rout of South African giant Kevin Anderson.

The world number one, the champion also in New York in 2010 and 2013, added the US title to the record 10th French Open he captured in June.

READ: Nadal eyes sweet sixteen against Anderson

The 31-year-old left-hander captured the top prize of $3.7 million (3.07 million euros) and his second Grand Slam crown of the year after taking his 10th French Open title in June.

Old rival Roger Federer won the season’s other two Slams at the Australian Open, beating Nadal in the final, and Wimbledon in an illustration of the two Grand Slam greats’ enduring appeal and power.

Nadal’s Grand Slam tally is just three behind Federer’s record 19.

For Nadal, it was his fifth title of the year and 74th of his career while the $3.7 million (3.07 euros) winner’s prize boosted his earnings to a shade under $90 million.

“It’s a very special two weeks for me. It’s unbelievable what’s happened this year after some seasons with serious injuries and not playing very well,” said Nadal.

“It’s been an emotional year since the Australian Open. I played a high level of tennis and winning here in New York again it’s unbelievable.”

Nadal also praised his coach and uncle Toni who has coached him since he was three but who will step down from his team at the end of the year.

“I cannot thank him enough,” said the champion.

“Without him I would not be here playing tennis. He gave me strength and motivation. When I had injury problems I got through them because of him.”

It was an honor

It was a desperately disappointing afternoon for Anderson, the world number 32 playing in his maiden Slam final at the 34th attempt.

He was the first South African in a US championship final since Cliff Drysdale in 1965 and was bidding to become his country’s first Slam champion since Johan Kriek at the 1981 Australian Open.

The Johannesburg-born, Florida-based Anderson finished the 2hr 28min final with 40 unforced errors to Nadal’s 11, failing even to carve out a single break point.

Nadal, winning his first hardcourt title since January 2014 in Doha, gave up just 15 points on his serve and won 16 out of 16 net points.

“Rafa, we are the same age but I have looked up to you all of my life,” said Anderson.

“It was an honor playing you. You are one of the great ambassadors of our sport.”

In a final guaranteed to result in the fifth Slam champion in succession who is 30 or older, Nadal was on top from the start.

He had 28th-seeded Anderson scrambling to save two break points in the third and fifth games before the Spaniard converted his fifth off a forehand error for a 4-3 lead.

News24.com | Zuma: Youth must be vocal to ‘get our land back’

You Need Posted on by

Ladysmith – President Jacob Zuma on Sunday said the youth and the ANC Youth League must lead the line in the fight to “get our land back”.

Zuma, in a dialogue style, interacted with ANC supporters among hundreds who had attended an ANCYL 73rd anniversary celebration in Ezakheni, Ladysmith.

Supporters told him that they still needed land in order to achieve economic freedom.

“We need land to start our own businesses as young people. We should have our land back in order to start agricultural projects that will benefit us. If we get land, we would be able to supply shops such as Shoprite and Pick n Pay with fruits and vegetables,” said a woman to Zuma.

“The youth should be vocal in the fight to get our land back. Land is not used while we’re living in poverty,” Zuma responded.

“There are plots of unused land which are owned by individuals who are living overseas.”

‘Freedom is incomplete’

The ANCYL should therefore lead the fight for economic freedom, Zuma said.

“The freedom we have now is incomplete. We have political freedom to vote but there are still challenges that government faces because economy-wise we are not free. That’s why the youth of today should start the fire of radical socio-economic transformation.”

When the ANCYL was formed in 1944 during the apartheid era, “it revived the ANC”, he said.

“The formation of the Youth League took the political struggle to another level. They influenced the future and method of struggle. What will the youth of today do?” he asked.

He said the youth of yesteryear brought new ideas to the ANC which were used to gain freedom.

“They were helping the mother body, which is the ANC. They brought militancy in the ANC.”

‘Insane and confused’

He also criticised the “Old Boys Club” that controlled the mining industry.

Zuma said there were a few people who get billions in the mining industry because of the “lifetime contracts” they signed.

“We can’t even come up with new laws to terminate contracts of those who have life contracts in the mining industry because of the country’s justice system,” he said.

He said they could easily change laws back in 1994 because they had a two thirds majority.

He blamed other political parties for not voting with the ANC to make new laws that will see blacks achieving economic freedom.

“They are insane and confused. They rather vote with the official opposition party. That’s why the ANCYL should lead the fight for economic freedom,” he said.

He advised that the Youth League should elect a leader that will be able to achieve radical economic transformation during the December elective conference.

CAPE TOWN – No sign has been found of a 19-year-old teenager who went missing in the surf at Monwabisi Beach, Cape Town on Sunday afternoon, the National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) said.

NSRI Strandfontein duty crew were activated at about 4.30pm following reports of a man missing in the surf at Monwabisi Beach, NSRI Strandfontein station commander Vaughn Seconds said.

The sea rescue craft Grand West CSI and the Discovery Rescue Runner, and the NSRI rescue vehicle with NSRI rescue swimmers responded to the scene.

“On arrival on the scene an off-duty lifeguard who had swum out to attempt to find the missing man in the surf was taken on board our sea rescue craft and an extensive sea and shoreline search in fading light revealed no sign of a 19-year-old Khayelitsha man, and a police dive unit will continue with an ongoing search and recovery operation that will be assisted by Cape Town fire and rescue services dive unit,” Seconds said.

Police had opened an investigation. The teenager reportedly went missing in the surf while swimming with friends. Police were assisting family members, he said.

News24.com | Khoza ‘playing to the gallery’ in ditching hearing – Mantashe

You Need Posted on by

Johannesburg – African National Congress secretary general Gwede Mantashe has rubbished ANC MP Makhosi Khoza’s fears that her disciplinary hearing was an opportunity for an ambush.

Speaking at the Oliver Tambo memorial lecture in Vosloorus, about 30km south of Johannesburg on Sunday, Mantashe said the ANC would have been playing to the gallery if they would have allowed Khoza to determine the venue for the hearings.

Mantashe said he was asked by a journalist why the ANC did not consider Khoza’s claims that her life would be in danger if the disciplinary hearings were held on Sunday.

“I said don’t change the venue because it’s playing to the gallery. I did not want her to get a gallery, she must go to the hearings. Finish.”

READ: Khoza threatened again, disciplinary process postponed

Mantashe said he instructed the ANC in KZN to continue the hearings as planned.

He said the journalist conceded that the venue was harmless and that Khoza had nothing to fear.

“The journalist said: ‘You are right. There is no threat, it’s peaceful and the work will be done properly.'”

Khoza has been charged with bringing the party into disrepute by the ANC in KwaZulu-Natal.

She had earlier said that the time and venue for her disciplinary hearings had made her suspicious because no meeting of this type was held on a Sunday.

Her hearing was adjourned on Sunday due to threats against her, News24 earlier reported.

Khoza failed to pitch up for her disciplinary hearings on Sunday with her representative, the ANC’s Smanga Sethene, indicating that her absence was a result of threats that emerged on Saturday evening, the ANC said in a statement.

The disciplinary committee said it had given Khoza an opportunity to come to pre-trial hearings prior to Sunday.

Her hearing was postponed to next Sunday, September 17.

Health24.com | This one factor has a major impact on how often you have sex

You Need Posted on by

The beginning of a new relationship may be hot, but then many couples inevitably cool off and are left wondering: Should we be having more sex?

Turns out, your age (or the age you feel you are) might be the biggest factor in that equation, according to a recent Kinsey Institute report. The 2017 study from The Kinsey Institute, published in the Journal of Sex Research, examined how age impacted the frequency of nookie.

Over a 10-year span, they examined nearly 1 200 middle aged and older adults, asking them how many times they do it, the “quality” of the sex, and how interested they were in “doing it” And to determine subjective age (a.k.a. the difference between participants’ chronological age and the age they normally feel), they asked the simple question: “Many people feel older or younger than they actually are. What age do you feel most of the time?”

The results? It’s all about your attitude, baby. When people reported that they felt “older”, they were less interested in intercourse and thought the “quality” of sex was worse.

Over the decade-long study, people did start to get it on less often, going from 2.52 times over the past six months to 1.8 times. Unsurprisingly, those with chronic health conditions did it less. Plus, those who did it often at the study’s start were also having more sex 10 years later. Meaning, your habits now impact those in the future. Use it or lose it, right?

Feeling younger does your body good outside the bedroom, too. Research finds that those who see themselves as younger than the candles on their birthday cake are healthier and live longer, the researchers point out.

But that still doesn’t answer how many sex sessions are best. Well, past research suggests that those who knock boots once a week are the happiest – which also happens to be the number WH readers say they do it on average.

And when you get older, provided you still have health on your side (and, hello, you plan to), you could very well be having sex at that retirement home. Women’s Health previously reported on a study that found 32% of sexually active women in their eighties had sex at least twice a month. Whoa! You might have some catching up to do.
