PITTSBURGH, March 26 (UPI) -- The only thing Andrew McCutchen is slow in getting to is a haircut. The Pittsburgh Pirates star centerfielder got his first haircut in eight years Wednesday to benefit team charities, according to ESPN.
McCutchen's signature locks will be auctioned off on MLB.com, with proceeds going to charity.
Once a cloud of dust and glimpse of flowing dreadlocks, McCutchen's movements could now be ghostlike on the base paths.
The four-time All-Star and 2013 National League MVP has 143 stolen bases, 36 triples and 200 doubles in his six year career. McCutchen led the National League with a .410 on base percentage and .952 on-base plus slugging percentage, hit .314, and had 25 home runs last season.

McCutchen un-locked: Pittsburgh Pirates star sheds dreads
MONTGOMERY, AL (WSFA) - Dr. John Winston Jr. remembers when weary marchers were allowed to camp at the City of Saint Jude 50 years ago during the Voting Rights March from Selma to Montgomery. Winston was a general surgeon at Saint Jude Catholic Hospital at the time.
That particular time was a trying time, he said. We were hoping for change not only in the rights of people, but in medicine also.
After the march, much of the financial support for the City of Saint Jude and the hospital began to erode due to backlash over their involvement in the voting rights campaign.
Dr. Winston and others fought to save the hospital, renaming it Fairview Medical Center.
Due to the fact that the marchers were allowed to camp on the grounds of Saint Jude, the white physicians stopped admitting patients and that cut down on quite a bit of the revenue that was coming in to keep the hospital operational, Dr. Winston explained. That led to many things to keep the hospital going, including changing the name from Saint Jude to Fairview. We were hoping that changing the name would change the outlook or the outcome and help keep the hospital going.
The black physicians that were there who saw a dire need for continuity of care for black patients, organized a hospital. They were not there, at first, to be hospital operators, but they saw the need and took the responsibility. These doctors put their finances at risk, added Robert Taylor III, who worked as one of the first administrators at Fairview Medical Center. Black patients and underprivileged patients could still get hospital admission to get their health needs taken care of.
The facility had to close years later due to financial strain, but the work that was done there left a lasting mark. A legacy organization was recently formed to honor the quest of physicians and employees for equal health care and human rights.
It's designed to keep that part of history alive and keep us ever mindful of the facts that exist and that we must continue the struggle, Dr. Winston said. We must continue the effort to create privileges and opportunities for everybody. The march was an event amongst several others that helped eradicate discrimination and helped us gain privileges we didn't have before, including those of us in medicine.
They're unsung heroes. To take that stress away from black people by continuing on with the hospital operation, is a story that needs to be told, Taylor added. He is the president of the Fairview Medical Center Legacy Organization.
Those re-enacting the 1965 Selma-to-Montgomery march received information about the organization as they arrived at the City of Saint Jude Tuesday in an effort to tell a chapter of local history many feel has gone untold for years.

A new favorite. Im serious. This was GOOD! I have made it before with a chocolate frosting but this time for Purim, I made it with a basic creamy white frosting.
This cake has a delicious deep yellow cake flavor and yet is spongy too. What I LOVE about the quantity of the batter is that it makes three 9 round cakes! This means you can double the cakes for a nice height (and freeze the 3rd:) or triple them for an over the top height OR you can slice each cake in half and layer them into a 6 layer cake.the ultimate decadent cake experience!
(I have done this before for Succos and I must say, our guests were speechless as I cut slices of 6 layered cake filled with chocolate frosting. Definitely a sweet way to end the meal!)
The link to the original recipe is here so you can see which frosting they used and how it looks as a 6 layer cake)
Bon Appetite Original Recipe
Enjoy! I think this one will be a favorite in your home too!
Arrange racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 350. Coat cake pans with nonstick spray. Line bottom of pans with parchment-paper rounds; coat paper. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl until no lumps remain. Combine buttermilk, oil, and vanilla in a medium bowl.
Combine sugar, butter, and brown sugar in another large bowl. Scrape in seeds from vanilla bean. Using an electric mixer, beat butter mixture until light and fluffy, 34 minutes. Add yolks and eggs one at a time, beating to blend between additions and occasionally scraping down sides and bottom of bowl.

A new bar at the Line hotel in Koreatown just opened and it fulfills our need for nostalgia and kitsch. Break Room 86 is a magical and straight-up cool bar where you enter through a retro vending machine and get transported to the '80s.
In the same vein as Good Times at Davey Wayne's and La Descarga, Houston Hospitality has done it again: created an immersive bar experience where you feel like you're in another country or decade. Break Room 86 is the newest addition to The Line hotel's growing hip bar and food scene, and it's all about the impeccable '80s touches that make us feel giddy in this space.
LAist visited Break Room 86 on opening night on Tuesday. To get into the bar, you walk a long way through a loading dock off Ardmore Ave. and Wilshire Blvd. and end up at a snack machine that also just so happens to double as a door to Break Room 86. Suddenly, you're in a reddish and dimly-lit bar with leather booths, gig equipment boxes as coffee tables, and tiled walls and ceiling as if you're in a New York subway station. Music from the likes of Prince, Tears for Fears and Simple Minds is blasting while folks dance in front of stacked vintage TVs showing retro '80s videos. The walls are covered with cassette tapes, old stereos, speakers and band posters. You can toss some quarters into the vintage arcade games like Pac-Man and Galaga that sit in a corner of the room. And there's even a wall lined with red lockers to make you feel like you might be in a scene from The Breakfast Club in real life.
Fitting in with Koreatown culture, Break Room 86 also has four karaoke rooms for groups of 10 to 20 people that guests can rent out. Even getting into those rooms is like a trip through Narnia. One of the entrances is through the wall of an old telephone booth. We'll leave it to you to find the other ones. Once inside, you'll find a cozy room that feels like somebody's den in the Midwest, with vintage album covers lining the walls and neon signs featuring things like the Ghostbusters logo. Apparently, you can also play games from the Atari console in there. As expected though, these karaoke rooms don't come cheap and can go from $150 per hour to $1,500 all night depending on how many people you bring along with you.
As for their craft cocktailsa menu helmed by Houston Hospitality beverage director Joe Swifkathey are new spins on colorful and sugary sweet and fruity drinks popular in the '80s. Their Rock-It Pop drink (one of our favorites) is a throwback to the red-white-and-blue rocket popsicles. They also have drinks with names like Cherry Chapstickcherry-infused Encanto piscoand Purple Rain, made with Pernod absinthe. True to '80s fashion (a la 1988 Tom Cruise flick Cocktail), they even have a bartender there doing some impressive flair cocktail tricks, like flipping bottles around in the air and balancing glassware.
Break Room 86 also has flavored wine coolers to bring you back to your Boone's Farm days that arrive in glass flasks. The best part is that you can also get alcoholic Push-Up Pops at the bar as well. Fair warning, after enough sugary drinks, you might find yourself with a heinous hangover. However, you can wash that all down with some childhood snacks like Pop Tarts, Cup O'Noodles and Cheez Balls that you can get at the bar. And since it's all about the details with twin brothers Mark and Johnnie Houston, who are the masterminds behind the bar, even the cocktail menus are inside of old VHS boxes with films like The Lost Boys or Ferris Bueller's Day Off on the covers.
One of the things I was most amused by were the live performances that guests can expect on some busy nights. Behind the bar is a stage on hydraulics that seems to appear out of thin air. A breakdancing crew came out and helicoptered to When In Rome's "The Promise":
And then a Michael Jackson impersonator came out moonwalking:
When I turned around for a split second after the performance, the stage seemed like it disappeared. Another mysterious and otherworldly feel to Break Room 86.
Break Room 86 is located at 630 S. Ardmore Ave., Koreatown, (213) 368-3056. It's open Tuesday through Saturdays from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m.

If Community had a motto itd probably be something like More with less. That is, if it isnt Six seasons and a movie or a quote from Bloodsport or Weird, Passionate, and Gross translated into Latin. Actually, there are probably about as many possible mantras for the show as there are classes in Ruffles the Dogs course loadincluding Greendales own Youve already been acceptedbut suffice it to say a certain narrative thriftiness has always been one of the big guns in Harmon & Co.s arsenal.
The show makes varied use of its spaces, finding all the nooks and crannies of storytelling they can in Greendales impossible geography. The college is like a TARDIS, or whatever off-brand police box used by Inspector Spacetimeits a lot bigger on the inside. Similarly, the show can stuff a lot of story into a space as small as the meeting room. Two of the series best episodes are bottle episodesthe paired bookends Cooperative Calligraphy and CooperativePolygraphyrelying on bedrock of the shows solid character interactions over any conceptual or meta razzle-dazzle. So when the third episode of the sixth season turns out to be a near-bottle episoderallying the troops in the library as an emergency response team for an attack ad put on the air by those snobby neer-do-wells over at City Collegeit also serves as a good point to assess the structural integrity of the cast now that a few load-bearing characters have been switched out for newer, less stress-tested replacements.
It turns out the center can hold. I thought the episode was the quickest, strongest, and funniest half-hour of the three so-far aired from Yahoos new season. Tasked with combating the image that Greendale is the kind of incompetent, anarchic place that would give a dog a degree, the group runs into trouble with the fact that Greendale is exactly the kind of incompetent, anarchic place that would give a dog a degree. The meeting room is given yet another makeoverthis time a central nervous system of operations for political strategizing straight out of The War Roomand the group splits off into more manageable groups. Some are united by flimsier bonds than others: Elroy shrugs Shes wearing my pants! when he runs off with a sloppy drunk Britta, but Annie and Frankie self-separate to compare and contrast their twin Type-A personalities.
Paget Brewster is turning out to be an interesting addition to the stew. Shes still partly the outsider commenting on the show after five seasons of Flanderization (her line Did we give a degree to a dog? is perfectly deadpan), but shes also revealing individual specificities. While shes as fastidious and checklist-oriented as Annie, shes also a hard-nosed pragmatist who doesnt have time for Annies rose-tinted optimism. Hope is pouting in advance, she says, dousing the fire in Annies heart with a bucket of cold, wet truth. Hope is faiths richer bitchier sister. Hope is the deformed attic-bound incest monster offspring of entitlement and fear.
They eventually find a way to get the ad pulled on a technicality. Ruffles overdue fees at the library (mostly Jack London books and the occasional shameful Cat Fancy) prevented him from actually receiving a degree, despite being enrolled in dozens of classes. But while this counts as a win (as Frankie puts it, Victory, you know within the context of Greendale), Annie sees it as an opportunity to take a cold hard look at themselves and decide whether they really should be so proud about being at a school where a dog only almost graduated with a 28-dog-year degree. Its hard not to read self-commentary into pretty much every second of Community, and here Annies words almost seem to serve as a reminder to the shows creators that silliness will only get you so far, a preemptive (even anxious) course-correction and reminder that there should always be a there there.
Add into all this the Deans text correspondence with a Tokyo schoolboy pretending to be Jeff, Brittas 90s-style music video drunken hallucination, and Keith Davids look of unfiltered disgust when Frankie says she doesnt own a TV, and youve got a a solid bottle-and-a-half episode of Community worth its weight in canned olives.

'Community' recap: 'Basic Crisis Room Decorum'
MANCHESTER Manchester VA Medical Center recently celebrated the opening of a veterans Integrated Health Care addition with a ribbon-cutting.
The new addition offers space to support delivery of integrated health care services to veterans.
It is our mission to honor Americas veterans by providing exceptional health care that improves their health and well-being, said Medical Center Director Tammy Krueger. Manchester VAMC is strengthening its foundation, and adding key building blocks that will continue to enhance veterans experiences at the medical center.
Gov. Maggie Hassan and U.S. Rep. Frank Guinta, R-N.H., attended and shared remarks. The program was opened by Jorg Dreusicke, veteran and 6th District commander, Department of New Hampshire VFW, who led the audience in the Pledge of Allegiance.
The new addition is home to Nurse First (expedited care provided by a registered nurse to resolve minor health concerns), Primary Care and Mental Health.
It offers state-of-the-art technology with a group treatment conference room including secure telehealth video capability allowing veterans to receive care remotely.
The medical center also announced its involvement as a pilot site for a new model of care for veterans that are chronically homeless. Called Homeless Primary Aligned Care, it is staffed by a primary care provider, a registered nurse, a social worker, and a peer support specialist.
The team will case manage veterans from homelessness to when they obtain permanent housing. The model of care is meant to be a bridge or transition team to assist until the veteran obtains stability, which is defined as permanent housing.

VA Medical Center opens addition
Phoenix, Ore. -- Construction can be a sign of growth, but for some local business owners, development on the Fern Valley Interchange in Phoenix has meant just the opposite for their revenue. Owners say they're hurting as a result of the construction, but they also see future potential.
Starting a new family run restaurant is challenging in and of itself, but when you add nearby construction to the mix, it can be a real struggle.
Natesha and Joe Martinez, owners of Joe's Restaurant in Phoenix on Highway 99, know this all to well.
"We are stressed to the max of course," says Natesha.
They opened their doors early last year, around the time construction on the Fern Valley Interchange began.
"We started thinking should we sell, should we get out now? I knew, wowthis is going to be challenging," she explains.
Martinez fears construction is keeping patrons from sitting in her many open tables.
"People just kind of avoid this area and do a loop around the area," she says.
It's a similar story for the Shoppes at Exit 24. Amy Hastings, owner of Ladybug Outdoor Gardens says long time customers don't mind the traffic, but new business is down.
ODOT says business owners can put up their ownsigns to show they are operating through construction. Doing so may be a good idea, as the brunt of the construction hasn't even begun.
