Alex Rodriguez marked his return to the New York Yankees line up by hitting a three-run homer with his first swing of the season while CC Sabathia pitched a four-hit shut-out in a 4-0 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Friday. The Yankees never trailed in the game as Rodriguez, making his first start for 28 games after recovering from a hip injury, smashed a fastball to left-centre field. Sabathia then took over, tossing a four hitter to end the Yankees five-game run without a win.
"I'm just coming in having a good time and enjoying myself," said Rodriguez after the game. "I'm fresh as well but it was just good to get back out and play baseball. "I felt pretty good, I had good energy out there. I was nervous before the game but got better as it went on." Elsewhere, Jason Bay hit his ninth home run of the season while JD Drew also homered as the Boston Red Sox rallied to defeat the Tampa Bay Rays 7-3. A five-run surge in the bottom of the sixth helped the Red Sox battle back from a 3-0 deficit.

Some of Darwish's last words
"They see their tomorrows slipping out of their reach. And though it seems to them that everything outside this reality is heaven, yet they do not want to go to that heaven. They stay, because they are afflicted with hope." - Mahmoud Darwish, to attendees of the Palestine Festival of Literature, 2008
His life in brief: Born in a village near Galilee, he lived in exile for most of his life and started writing poetry after high school. He was arrested several times by Israel for what were deemed to be inciteful poems. Most of his work focused on the love and yearning for his homeland, and he was regarded the Palestinian poet of resistance. Over the course of his life, he published more than 30 poetry collections and books of prose, with his work translated into more than 20 languages. Many of his poems were set to music by Arab composers, most significantly Marcel Khalife. Darwish died on August 9, 2008 after undergoing heart surgery in the United States. He was later buried in Ramallah where a shrine was erected in his honour.

What is dialysis?
Dialysis is a way of cleaning your blood when your kidneys fail and can no longer do the job.
It gets rid of your body's wastes, extra salt and water, and helps to control your blood pressure. The main cause of kidney failure is diabetes and hypertension.
There are two kinds of dialysis — haemodialysis and peritoneal.
In haemodialysis, blood is pumped out of your body to an artificial kidney machine that filter your blood and returns it to your body by tubes.
In peritoneal dialysis, the inside lining of your own belly acts as a natural filter. Wastes are taken out by means of a cleansing fluid which is washed in and out of your belly in cycles.
It isn’t an option for everyone but if eligible, can be done at home by the patient or caregiver. This, as opposed to home haemodialysis, is covered by insurance in the UAE.
