- Better the First timeArtman49Dined on 9/18/2014The first time we dined at the venerable Palm, it was a wonderful experience. The next time was not so remarkable. The food was very good. The service was minimal. The noise level was uncomfortably loud. The food may require a return visit, but no time soon.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Awesome as always!Logger60Dined on 9/17/2014The bone-in ribeye is terrific! Love the creamed spinach.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Festive and great serviceDrewstanbulDined on 9/16/2014A landmark steak and lobster place. My #1 choice in DC.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dinner the right wayOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 9/15/2014Delicious as usual. Had dinner at the bar for a change. Chuck was hilarious as my bartender, Eric the manager was checking on our group constantly which was appreciated and his banter truly is what made the experience. We even had a visit from the Chef! What a place!I would recommend this to a friend.
- TerribleAjbafVIPDined on 9/13/2014The service was perfect, however the food was just so bad. We had the soft shell crab, it was hard and tasteless. My husband's steak was flavorless as was the creamed spinach.
- Always GoodFood4thoughtDined on 9/13/2014THis was our first time at The Palm in Washington, DC. We normally frequent The Palm restaurants in NYC. As usual The Palm delivers....even in DC. The Maitre'd was outstanding. He was so accommodating when we were lost in DC traffic trying to find our way to the restaurant. This restaurant is fortunate to have him greeting diners. As I have experienced in several other Palm restaurants, the service and food in DC were equally as good. I have never had a bad meal in any Palm restaurant.....and DC lived up to The Palm's stellar reputation.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/12/2014Tim was a great waiter, top notch. The food and drinks were perfect as well. Thank you!!Special Features:
- Very PleasedHJasonHDined on 9/12/2014I had not been to The Palm before, but during a business trip several of my colleagues and I decided to try it. I'm glad we did. The place has a character all it's own, and the food and service were top notch.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Concerned about returning.Diningdiva1Dined on 9/10/2014Great service but bland food. We were unable to have a conversation due to the noise and were crammed like sardines while dining. What happened to the Palm? I have eaten here for years and never had this sort of experience.Special Features:
- The place to be in DClastdinersDined on 9/10/2014Outstanding in every respect!! Vibrant atmosphere, great food and outstanding service.Special Features:
- Travel in' manforeveryoungDined on 9/8/2014We've been to the Palm in NY many times but this was the first time in DC . We were expecting the same great food and service and we're not disappointed. Lobster s a must and the hash and half unions and potatoes were the best.vSpecial Features:
- Fantastic birthday spotDCDinerVIPDined on 9/7/2014We had a wonderful time celebrating a birthday at the Palm. The restaurant really pulls out all of the stops. The steak was the best I've ever eaten, and the Palm will definitely be my go to for a fancy night out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always a good betluvgoodfoodDined on 9/5/2014The Palm is consistently very good, lots of experienced people working there. My steak was perfect, and my sons chicken parm was great.Special Features:
- Great ServiceBfgillilandVIPDined on 9/5/2014Food and service were both great. Split the 14 oz. filet with my husband. It was plenty of food and it was delicious. Salads are great too. Beer list could use some work.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- JoyousDined on 8/31/2014Great food. Steaks and chicken parm great but huge portion of chicken parm . had green beans and scalloped potatoes both of which very good. My son had his steaked Oscar style. Beautiful. Seemed loud that night. A little hard to carry on a conversation. Also lots of happy birthday singingSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent service and foodMimiDined on 8/31/2014We celebrate our anniversary at the Palms and were very happy of our choice. The 4 lbs lobster was delicious and the service is friendly and prompt. We will come back for steaks next time. AmySpecial Features:
- Splurge CityFStreetFoodieVIPDined on 8/31/2014Split a 5 pound lobster with my wife. Very, very good. Largest claw I've ever seen. Best blue cheese salad dressing around. Great way to spend a Sunday night of a long weekend. Was surprised to see it so busy for a downtown restaurant on a holiday weekend. Not cheap, but worth it if you are in the mood. Not quiet either, but that's part of the scene.Special Features:
- Birthday cake ??? Shameful !!!MemeDined on 8/30/2014When you're celebrating your birthday and the house gives You a complimentary cake it should be a piece of cake ! not a spoon of whipping cream, for the money that you expend I think it will better not to give anything, is a shame an a chip way to save money. Very disappointing and no more birthday celebrations at The Palm. Victor M. UlloaSpecial Features:
- Another loberster feastUnclejohnDined on 8/30/2014Had three out of five daughters with me for another lobster feast. Two big ole lobsters and a nice filet for me. Sometimes the chef understands rare plus and sometimes they don't. Still all in all a great time was had.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious lobstermarxieDined on 8/30/2014We had the 4 pound lobster dinner for 2. What a beautiful sight! Excellent tasting!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent ServiceAlmostFoodieDined on 8/28/2014We brought our 2 year old along and were worried we'd be treated as second class, but the opposite occurred! Our server made sure our every need was met and our little one was treated royally. Thank you!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect for Special OccasionsHockeyHemingwayDined on 8/25/2014I went for our anniversary. When we arrived, they greeted us with "Happy Anniversary!" and there was an anniversary card on the table, signed by all the wait staff. The food was OUT OF THIS WORLD good, and the waiters really attend to you with that "fine dining experience." Fantastically expensive, though - dinner for two with wine and an appetizer cost $200. Still, would highly recommend.Special Features:
- Lobster specialsamyVIPDined on 8/24/2014Lobster special for two (x2) was a great deal with a very good Caesar salad starter and FF / creamy spinach sides. Service was prompt and professional you expect in a good steak house.
- Great for Business LunchesOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 8/22/2014Make sure to sit in the front patio where it's light and airy - then just enjoy the food and excellent service. The Business Lunch prix fixe is one of the best kept secrets in Washington!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- An oldie but a goodie!!!Diva1014Dined on 8/21/2014I dined here with fellow co-workers for lunch. The service was fantastic! Everything arrived just as we ordered, and nice and hot. We had some of the last soft shells crabs of the season which were just great! The calamari was good as well. Loved the handmade chips that came with our crabcakes. The crabcakes were all crab with very little filler. Can't wait to go back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food-The Palm/Service-McDonaldsAnnoymousDined on 8/20/2014837 Club member for 15 years. Menu isn't anything gastronomically exceptional. It's is what it is and is good. However, the service was pedestrian at best. Leaving used plates during the meal on the table, serving dessert while leaving used hand towels (lemon cleaning after eating lobster) on the table, not tidying/cleaning crumbs off the table before dessert, every time the waiter visited the table to bring something, he would stand beside me and lean over in front of me to deliver things/dishes to others at the table vs walking around the table to each person. On one occasion when bringing dessert plates for sharing he actually tossed the forks to everyone's place while holding another table's bowl of soup in front of my face. Pathetic!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistently excellentOpenTable Diner Since 2002VIPDined on 8/20/2014I have eaten eat here once every few months for the past 12 years, but in the last 6 weeks I've eaten here 4 times. I'm here either with my fiancé, relatives, or long time friends when they come to town. I usually eat their lobsters (best place in DC for this), with sides, appetizers, and then usually have some steak either with, or right after, the lobsters. Good wine list, reasonable corkage policy, and the best and most fun staff of any high end restaurant in the City. From the outstanding maître 'd to my favorite servers (Timmy and Amy), to even the guys who park my car and don't bother with a ticket (because they remember me), this has become my go-to place in DC. These people know how to take care of their guests.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The PalmOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 8/20/2014Excellent food and service, as usual. We had the lobster special, splitting a lobster, for two, which was further enhanced by a free upgrade in lobster size, to 5 pounds. The lobster, as usual, was expertly prepared and served, with a minimum of effort on our part required to eat it.Special Features:
- MixedbarbaraDined on 8/19/2014The food at the Palm is consistently good. Though I've never had this problem before, the service was not good and the noise was quite annoying.
- Lobster dinner35thaniversaryDined on 8/18/2014Was very disappointed with the quality of the lobster. My wife and I ordered the 4lb lobster dinner for 2. The lobster was tough and rubbery, the side if creamed spinnich was soured, and the baked clams were the size of a quarter. Best part of the meal was the ceaser salad and mashed potatoes
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/17/2014Will always go back. Love everything about it. The people are great; give great service , all the time.Special Features:
- Hats off and take a BOW...DCraigDined on 8/16/2014The Palm is truly TOP of the line. If you want class and elegance THIS is the place to come. The food is more than great and the one thing that beats the food is the service. All the staff treats you and your guest like you're the only ones in the restaurant. The wait staff is up close and personal and this is rare commodity in today's society. Hats off and take a BOW...Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fit for a foodie junk food bingeRFranDined on 8/15/2014This steak house never disappoints when you're in the mood for some high quality fat. And I don't eat red meat. Go there for the fish and the sides - creamed spinach, fried onions and the crispiest chip-like potatoes in the half and half. Excellent bread. Good salads. LOVE the grilled chicken cobb. I also enjoy the power lunch ambiance at lunch. And yet my kids love it too. Just had their flourless chocolate cake, which was excellent. I would say when I want to be totally self-indulgent in a good ol' all American way this is one of my favorite places. I gave the service a 4 since it normally is quite good. This last time I didn't find it so - obviously inexperienced server.Special Features:
- Samuel123Samuel123Dined on 8/10/2014This was my first visit to the Palm in about 15 years, and I was a bit disappointed. The food was excellent, although our waiter neglected to tell us about the lobster special, and we had to get that information from the waiter from the next table over from us. Also, my girlfriend became annoyed because our waiter continued to call her honey until she told him not to do it anymore. Otherwise, the wine steward was extremely helpful, and after we ordered a bottle of wine we did not like, she came over and recommended a great bottle of wine which we enjoyed greatly. Incidentally, I would like to thank the management for not charging us for the bottle of wine that we did not like.Special Features:
- An oldie but a goodie...moneypennyDined on 8/9/2014This might just be my favorite restaurant for food ever...the steaks were amazing and the sides were yummy too. The Palm is perfect for a really good meal.Special Features:
- Great for a special occasionPerfectDined on 8/9/2014Food delicious. Service outstanding. Came to this restaurant for my sister's birthday on August 9th the service was phenomenal. .. I don't remember my server's name but he made it very enjoyable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent but expensivewnedderDined on 8/7/2014Wife and I had wonderful meal with perfect service. We will return again. Server did not charge me for cocktail that I ordered but did not like. Nice touch!!Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 8/6/2014Consistently good traditional food with fresh ingredients. Prefer the Light-filled glass enclosed seating in the front rather than the darker interior.Special Features:
- Still one of the best.UnclejohnDined on 8/3/2014Some restaurants change year to year or even season to season. Not The Palm. Great wait staff and great food.
- Great FoodAdvntrgrl1Dined on 8/2/2014Food was great as always. Restaurant was sooooo noisy. Service was average. Felt like our waiter was paying more attention to his bigger tables and we were an after thought.Special Features:

Youth labor force participation in Summer 2004
August 19, 2004
The labor force participation rate for youth—the proportion of the population age 16 to 24 working or looking for work—was 67.2 percent in July 2004, about the same as in July 2003. These were the lowest rates for July since 1966.
The proportion of 16- to 24-year-olds enrolled in school in July has grown over the last decade—from 16.3 percent in 1994 to 28.9 percent in 2004—and labor force participation rates for students are typically lower than for non-students. Only about half of the youth enrolled in school were in the labor force in July, compared with about three-fourths of those not in school.
These data are a product of the Current Population Survey. The data are not seasonally adjusted. Find out more in "Employment and Unemployment Among Youth—Summer 2004" (PDF) (TXT), news release USDL 04-1590.

SABRE-Security Equipment Corp.
By Andrew Ba TranThe Sun-SentinelRelated: Fla. officer jumped by 75 people at water park
FORT LAUDERDALE — The brawl that erupted between high school students at an Orlando theme park on Sunday was so raucous that police officers repeatedly used chemical spray to disperse fighting teens, according to police reports released Tuesday.
While police tried to stop the fighting, about 100 young people tried to charge the gates at the Wet 'n Wild water park to regain entry and some accosted its security staff and police, the reports said. When one officer tried to order about 20 teenagers off a bus and pulled his handgun, they told him they were not afraid, prompting him to use the chemical spray, police said.

Hostess Brands first got us to imagine a world without Twinkies in January, when it filed for bankruptcy protection.
This time the company is liquidating, which I'm sorry to report does not involve a new form of chuggable Twinkie, but rather thousands of lost jobs.
Will you miss Hostess snack cakes? Or do you think, as I do, that snack cakes are no longer the beloved treats they once were.
I'm going to have to cross batter-fried Twinkies off my cooking project bucket list.
On the other hand, if any local bartender wants to invent a cocktail called the Liquidated Twinkie…

Don't eat them…packed full of lard, fat and preservatives. Funny, Twinkies reportedly can survive a nuclear war, but can't survive their unions…
November 16th, 2012
1:02 pm
There hasn't been a good Twinkie since 1962.
November 16th, 2012

that's what the unions get and deserve.
November 16th, 2012
1:54 pm
Great victory for the labor unions…..not willing to work with management to restructure resulting in everyone at Hostess losing their jobs…….too bad the President couldn't step in and use taxpayer money to save the Twinkee industry!

Remember as a kid touring the Wonder Bread bakery in Richmond, Va and getting those mini loaves of bread as a sample. To die for. Thanks unions. The animals are running the zoo.
November 16th, 2012
2:26 pm
I hope everyone realizes that the company will be quickly purchased and that Twinkies will not be going anywhere.
November 16th, 2012
2:38 pm
Josh, you may be right but the new owner will not allow the unions to drive the bus. They will either negotiate in kind or they will close the plants and open under non-union workers. Hope that happens.
November 16th, 2012
2:43 pm
…but the company WILL NOT be quickly purchased, as it can't since they are doing a legal thing called "liquidating". Now, the different BRANDS (Twinkie, Wonder Bread, Ho-Ho's, etc) may be sold to the highest bidder as part of the LIQUIDATION, but the company as a whole will no longer exist.
Please go back and review Business Law 101…
November 16th, 2012
3:12 pm
Yes, the intellectual property that is needed to continue to produce Twinkies and other products will be quickly sold and purchased. The new producers of Twinkies will not be called Hostess — you are correct. My main point that Twinkies are not going to become a thing of the past still stands.
November 16th, 2012
3:45 pm
Twinkies are terrible.
November 16th, 2012

"My main point that Twinkies are not going to become a thing of the past still stands."
Only the dumb, mob-led union workers will be a thing of the past.

Good riddance! I think they're nasty.

The sad thing is many of the long term employees apparently wanted to accept the concessions and try to save the company and their jobs. However, the Union and many of the newer employees decided to strike. It seems many were planning to leave anyway, so forcing the company to close made it easier for them to receive unemployment and other Government support.

The company was having problems with overhead/ expenses, The new Obamacare was going to finish them off if the Obama backed unions did not. You can chalk this closing and the loss of all these jobs to the election of Obama and his new socialist style government
November 16th, 2012
5:24 pm
The new Twinkies could very well be called Hostess Twinkies. The Hostess name is an asset to be sod like everything else.
November 16th, 2012
5:32 pm
Glad those union people will be without jobs.
November 16th, 2012
5:43 pm
Ya'll save some venom for management, why don't you:
"BCTGM members are well aware that as the company was preparing to file for bankruptcy earlier this year, the then CEO of Hostess was awarded a 300 percent raise (from approximately $750,000 to $2,550,000) and at least nine other top executives of the company received massive pay raises. One such executive received a pay increase from $500,000 to $900,000 and another received one taking his salary from $375,000 to $656,256."
Cash in, dip out, blame the union. Looks like the head honchos knew where the company was headed well before negotiations with workers were even attempted, and got while the getting was good.
November 16th, 2012
5:47 pm
So what. Why be in business if you can't make a profit. Glad the union people will be without jobs.
November 16th, 2012
5:59 pm
Unions have long since served their usefullness. Now they are just a hangout for the lazy, slow-moving class.
Yes…That means you! You know who you are!
November 16th, 2012
6:48 pm
That's not profit, that's compensation. Do you understand the difference? Compensation is what the labor negotiations were about — an 8% pay cut and a 30% cut in benefits, AFTER management awarded themselves gargantuan pay raises while preparing to file for bankruptcy.

reading in between the lines it sounds like you are upset that the hostess employees lost their jobs. Do you think that there is anyone else to blame but themselves for losing their jobs? By the tone of your article you are getting political so go ahead and answer my question.

So it's okay for the execs to "cash out" and turn a "profit" or have "compensation"…
…but the employees who work for them can't earn decent wages, or have a union to represent them in this pursuit?

"Hostess management had already claimed that the strike would be responsible for the closings of specific plants—when it had already planned to close plants even if the workers accepted the cuts and stayed at work. BCTGM President Frank Hurt says the workers understood who they were dealing with:
Our members know that the plans all along of the Wall Street investors currently in control of this company did not include the operation of Hostess Brands any longer than it takes to sell the company in whole—or in part—in a way that will maximize the profits of these vulture capitalists regardless of the impact on the workforce.
Workers were being asked to accept cuts, but top executives had gotten massive raises as Hostess was about to enter bankruptcy. Investments in the company's future that had been promised as part of restructuring after the previous bankruptcy were never made. And as for the management, put in place by the private equity companies that now own Hostess, Hurt says:
Unfortunately however, for the past eight years management of the company has been in the hands of Wall Street investors, "restructuring experts", third-tier managers from other non-baking food companies and currently a "liquidation specialist". Six CEO's in eight years, none of whom with any bread and cake baking industry experience, was the prescription for failure."

The Bakery Union is run by the Teamsters, the most corrupt, mob-controlled, union organization ever to exist. Quit pretending the Union is pure as the driven snow and understand whose side YOU are on.

Don't eat Twinkies so much but still liked Wonder Bread. As to the business side of this, I think this is just a portent of things to come. More and more are getting in the wagon while fewer and fewer are pulling it and now they want those of us who are pulling, to pull harder.

Grasshopper: trying to place all the blame on the unions is disingenuous, as well. There is enough blame to go around, but the glaring "in your face" action was done by the management. It was clear they were going to liquidate regardless of any concessions from the unions. This is a prime example of greed replacing what used to be good American values.

News Flash—It ain't just about Unions and Twinkies people! It's also about zingers, raspberry zingers,yodels,susy-q's.ho-ho's,ding dongs and Hostess Fruit pies—That's right! no more fruit pies folks! Where we gonna get'em? Anybody else worried about Twinkie The Kid? –He ain't exactly a spring sponge cake–gonna be real tough to get a job. Maybe he can write a book–I'll bet he has seen plenty, you know, working that close to Dolly Madison–(wink,wink)

"With Hostess brands' corporate corpse not even cold yet due to the nationwide union strike, the AFL-CIO's Trumka issued a statement on Friday blaming Wall Street for the company's crash. The problem with Trumka's lie-filled logic is that Wall Street didn't call the strike and Trumka fails to address the fact that without Wall Street investors investing in Hostess, the company, would have likely died years ago.
Even more important, however, is the fact that, although they didn't like it, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (with 6700 members' jobs on the line) approved the same concessionary contract that Hostess was seeking of the bakers' union.
Though Teamster bosses are now trying to blame Hostess for its demise, late last week, the Teamsters had called on the bakery union to allow its members to vote, even going so far as to chastise the bakery union's actions. However, as much as he and his fellow union bosses try to spin and finger point the results of the union's actions that destroyed the Ding Dongs, in a Friday statement, bakery union boss Frank Hurt admits that his union members knew that their strike could kill Hostess.
And, now, no matter how union bosses try to spin it, 18,000 Hostess workers–with their dignity, justice and respect intact–are now destined to stand with their hands out in the unemployment line."

Just a quick note. During the restructuring and re-negotiating phase, Hostess management gave themselves 7.6 million dollars in bonuses for mismanaging the company.

LOL, quoting redstate.com? Yeah, that's real objective (NOT!). Sorry dude, but FOLLOW THE MONEY. Look who made out like bandits, it wasn't the unions or the workers, I'll tell you that. FOLLOW THE MONEY.

Regardless of whose fault it was (always the other person), Unions have no place in society any more. People are losing jobs left and right, and with Obama getting re-elected many owners have already started laying off, cutting hours, etc. So the union people lost their jobs. Look around, so many others have as well, and they didn't get any union benefits to begin with.

Open your damn eyes, follow the money! The management cashed out days before the bankruptcy, they were going to liquidate regardless of what the unions did. They increased their salaries HUNDREDS of percents while claiming there was no money for the workers or pensions. This is a prime example of vulture capitalists at work. And some of you people are too stupid to realize what is right in front of your nose, your screwed up definitions and allegiance to a ruling class have you completely bamboozled. It isn't Obama wrecking your life, it is the people you are worshiping who suck every penny out of you then convince you it is someone else doing it. Holy S, y'all are dumb.

Oh, and grasshopper, you didn't quote any facts, only supposition from redstate.com. I don't expect anyone from your demographic to understand the difference between facts and bulls***, though.

Perhaps the 'best' managers don't take jobs working with unions. Perhaps the 'best' managers won't work for companies that have unions – and well, then we see what happens.
It is not unusual for a company that is anticipating bankruptcy to give 'new' contracts to a select few – to force them to stay for a period of time. Seeing those numbers regarding 'pay raises' leads me to believe that that is what hostess was doing for a few select employees – so they don't jump ship when they can leave (because, well, the best would be able to leave) – because they need some employees around to help out even if they are going to be liquidating.

Edward, Obama IS wrecking my life by making me pay more for his stupid Obamacare plus having me work fewer hours so my boss can afford to stay open and even keep me on the payroll. But nobody here is blaming Obama for this Twinkie mess. atlmom is right – the bog honchos would have got out while the gettin' was good and left the company in an even bigger mess than they became. Shareholders voted on the raises. You say that the company was planning to liquidate before the unions striked. Maybe so – but the FACT is that the unions should have been dissolved years ago, the company should not have had to put up with union regulations for years, and the strike was just the straw that broke the camels back. Years of having to put up with unions and their stupid rules (having 3 people there to do the work of one person, where in non-union companies many are complaining of one employee having to do the work of 3 or 4 people, and surely don't get union wages) is one of the reasons for the demise. People not eating so much junk food is another. But you CAN NOT just blame the managers and believe the unions are blameless.

By the time Ocie Wood was six years old he had been in and out of trouble. It started with lying to his parents and crew into much worse offenses.
"I started breaking into houses, stealing guns, things like that, breaking into stores," Wood said.
But a crime he committed while in Florida at 18 years old changed his life forever. It started with a night of drugs and drinking and ended with Wood volunteering to rob a convenience store.
"But when I pulled the gun on him I panicked and the gun went off," Wood said.
His sentence -- life in prison. It was time behind bars he wasn't prepared for.
"In prison it's an everyday life. They prey on young men to come to prison. Your homeboys will turn on you and set you up to become a homosexual," Wood said.
It's stories like Wood's that keep people at Mt. Meigs -- the state's juvenile lock up for male offenders -- busy.
"The offense category can range from theft charges, up to murder," said Alesia Allen with the State Department of Youth Services.
Despite the crime, it's not always easy to prepare them to re-enter society especially when their backgrounds include abuse, drugs and lack of services to keep them off the streets.
Allen started working in the juvenile justice system 28 years ago. Her passion: To impact the lives of young people. Twenty-eight years later she's still surprised at just how many lives need attention.
"We have communities that are providing services. We have organizations and agencies that are working together and still somewhere in this child's life something still goes lacking. How do you fix it is the million dollar question," Allen said.
The average stay at the facility is six to nine months, and they aren't living in the lap of luxury. But still, some consider it home.
"When they go back to environments that are chaotic and inconsistent they're having to survive. That becomes problematic and this becomes more desirable," Allen said.
Wood was released from prison after 15 years. Now he tries to keep other teens from heading down the same path.
"Prison life is different from jail or reform school. It's totally different," Wood said.
From 2007 to 2012, the State Department of Youth Services saw its population drop considerably due in part to community-based programs that divert teens from the system.
"I find it critically important for attention to be paid to young people prior to them getting to us at the DYS level," Allen said.

A room that could host performances and basketball games in theScottsValleylibrary building is being planned, but so far it has no timeline or source of funding.
The Scotts Valley City Council voted at its June 6 meeting to approve plans that represent the first steps in building a 9,000-square-foot multipurpose room as part of the Scotts Valley Branch Library.
The plans call for a partnership with Group4 Architecture and Research Inc. — the firm that designed the library — to work up designs and determine the building costs, said Corrie Kates, community development director and deputy city manager.
"We don't know yet what it's going to cost," he said. "All we're doing right now is to prepare renderings and cost proposals."
The proposed multipurpose room addition would occupy 9,080 square feet of unused space inside the library building's south side. The library occupies about 13,150 square feet of the building, which was previously an indoor skating rink and sports center.
The project would not use city funds, Kates said; instead, construction would depend upon finding outside money.
"Similar to the library funding, we'll be looking at private funding and grant funding," he said.
The multipurpose room would be large enough to host events, performances and indoor sports, such as basketball, Kates said.
"It'd be something that helps with the current parks and rec programs," he said.
Kates said the plan was still in its infancy and there was no timetable for the project to begin, much less finish.
"We'd like it done yesterday," he said. "But there's just no funding for it."

5 reasons I don't clip coupons
I'm not a health nut, but the last thing I need is another excuse to buy a frozen pizza and Pop-Tarts.
This post comes from Kentin Waits at partner blog Wise Bread.
People love coupons. According to Nielsen Clearing House, an industry leader in coupon marketing and redemption, 78% of consumers report using coupons on a regular basis.
I'm not one of these people. Though clipping coupons is usually the first thing that comes to mind when folks think of frugality and thrift, I argue that it's time to put down the scissors. Here's why. (See also: "Extreme couponing? 5 reasons why I'll pass.")
1. You usually have to buy something to get a coupon
Though some coupons are free or accessible online at no charge, most of them are still found tucked in that old standby, the Sunday newspaper. I don't read the paper, and I don't want to have to buy something in order to be offered the chance to save money. It seems contradictory and is a bit too complicated for my taste.
2. Coupons attempt to modify behavior
Manufacturers want me to save 50 cents on that pint of ice cream for one reason only -- to get me in the habit of eating it. It's simple. And it's a claim that the manufacturers and the coupon industry would be the first to admit. Coupons exist to suggest new products and to habituate shoppers to particular products and brands. Then later, at 3 in the morning when I need that pint of Rocky Road in the very worst way -- poof! No more coupons. No thanks. (Post continues below video.)
3. Coupons encourage overbuying
Often, the money we save with a coupon applies only when buying multiple items. Even though each item may be cheaper in the long run with the coupons, why should I have to buy multiples? What if I don't end up liking that new brand of coffee? What if that brand of cheese has a bad aftertaste? Who should be the lucky recipient of all my surplus java and Colby Jack?
4. The savings vs. time investment is low with coupons
Couponing requires the regular purchase of a newspaper at best. At worst, it requires joining some coupon exchange club and buying a handy organizer. Then I have to clip, file and wait for double-coupon day. And while I'm at it, I should also join my grocery store's loyalty program to boost my savings even more. With this much effort, are the savings really worth it? Wouldn't buying generic save me just as much without all the hassle?
5. Coupons typically push prepackaged, processed foods
I seldom see coupons for apples or broccoli. Maybe they exist, and I've just blinded myself to an entire category of things that require clipping. But it seems to me that coupons generally push convenient, prepackaged and processed food. I'm not a health nut, but the last thing I need is another excuse to buy a frozen pizza and Pop-Tarts.
Perhaps I've overstated my case, and I certainly don't mean to disparage diehard couponers out there. It's just that I can't quite see what all the fuss is about. Don't get me wrong; I'm all for saving money. I'm just not sure that couponing achieves that goal in the long run. Looking for sales on things I'd buy anyway, stocking up when I find a smoking deal on something I really love, gravitating toward generics and store brands whenever possible -- these are my tried-and-true tactics.
Still, Nielsen Clearing House says I'm firmly in the minority of shoppers with my coupon-free wallet. Heck, 1.75 billion coupons were redeemed in the first six months of 2011 alone. That's a whole lot of clipping, and I must be missing something. If you're serious about couponing, please fill me in -- I'm free most Sundays.
More from Wise Bread and MSN Money:
Do you use toothpaste? toothbrushes? Deorderant? Shampoo? Conditioner? Razors? Body Wash? Dish Soap? Laundry detergant?
Then maybe you might want to think about couponing. I'm 26 years old and I agree with you about the food items, however when it comes to items like those mentioned, I haven't paid a penny towards those items within the past 6 years of couponing. Which saves me more money then I could imagine, allowing me to enjoy a very good life.
As in most things, there is a middle ground between always and never. I only use coupons for things I use. I'm a journalist, so I always read the Sunday paper -- kind of surprised you don't -- and it takes a few minutes to flip through the coupon section to see if there are coupons for any products I use. If there are, I clip. If not, I don't. It doesn't have to be extreme.
someone...obviously you don't know much about coupons. There are coupons for things other than food (household cleaners, toilet paper, paper towels, magazines, just to name a few), but also for healthy food such as kashi products, oranges, orange juice and yogurt. When I'm not sure on a topic, I don't respond because I don't believe that I know everything, and I don't want to seem ignorant.
This is a very ignorant article to suggest that all coupons are for food. Maybe some more experience and research would help.
OK people let me clarify - YES people like the one lady on extreme couponing who bought 100 boxes of cereal that no-one in her family would eat are yes STUPID! unless she were to turn around and donate it to a local food shelf! BUT for the rest of us SAVVY shoppers we ONLY buy things we would normally buy!!! DUH!!! so get off the rant about buying things you don't need!!
I havn't been couponing for a while but have not needed to buy TP for about 6 months! And got ALL of them for less than 15 cents a roll!!! That's not dumb that's very SMART!! Maybe you all are rich and can afford to buy things without coupons but for the rest of us average Joes WE WILL USE COUPONS and have enough items in store for at least a year!! How about you??? if we had a war TODAY how long could you survive on the few items you have in your house???
It makes me sick to go to the store and have to buy something without a coupon and without it being on sale!! Hamburger is over $4.00 a pound!!! Holy cow!!! Butter too. I'll get it when its $2.25 a pound and I will have a coupon for at least 25 cents off!! How much will you pay???
and as far as standing in line while someone uses all their coupons...1. I always let people go before me and warn anyone who comes behind me that I am using coupons....PICK A DIFFERENT LINE!! 2.You had all the time in the world to shop so be patient with people who are broke and NEED to use coupons!! PICK A DIFFERENT LINE!!
Also the one guy on Exteme Couponing was EXTREMELY SMART!! He got over $22,000 worth of stuff for $275.00 (like toothpaste, tooth brushes, shampoo and conditioner, soap etc.) and said "I know I can't use all this stuff in my lifetime so I'm going to get my friends and neighbors together and make care packages for our military service members." NOW NOT ONLY DID HE DONATE $22,000 WORTH OF STUFF BUT HE ALSO CAN GET A TAX BREAK FOR THE DONATION!! WHAT A SMART MAN!!!!
If your not into coupons that's fine but don't bash the people who HAVE to use coupons to survive!!!
Ok Kentin Waits.. want some cold hard facts since you will have sunday morning free to read them? Lets address some of the points you make and debunk them with reality. First off, as a disclaimer, I am not an extreme couponer. I have been couponing for less than a year, and as of January 1st I began tracking my sales to see how I am doing. So the data below represents 1/1/12 to 4/25/12
1) Spent on papers $98
2) Saved with coupons from those papers: $1027.64
3) Overall savings: $929.64
Not bad for an investment of $98 right? So lets get some more numbers rolling. BTW this is for a family of 3, with a small child, and I used to spend anywhere from $200-$250 a week with diapers, wipes ect included. I had no stockpile, and no plan. We eat healthy, though we also have treats. I now have a small stockpile to last until the next great sale as well.
1) Total retail value of products purchased: $3954.85
2) Actual price paid for products OOP (out of pocket): $1418.06 ($83.41 average per week)
3) Total saved by price matching, couponing, buying whats fresh and seasonal, buying what is on sale at a rock bottom price, and using my stockpile to menu plan: $2536.59 (64%)
This takes me about 2-4 hours a week. So Kentin, I have to ask.. is 2-4 hours of your time too much to ask to save that much money?
I use coupons regularly. I turned my $200+ a week grocery budget to $50 a week or LESS. That includes toiletries, diapers, cat food, cat litter, treats, and food for a family of 3 + baby sitters 5 days a week so they are here for lunch. Stores like Target and Publix CONSTANTLY put out store coupons for vegetables, organic food, healthy food. We eat healthier now than we ever did
Also, there are more coupons than food coupons. I get name brand deoderants, toothpaste, toothbrushes, mouthwash, soap, shampoo, conditioner for free regularly, if the store isnt "paying" me to take it out of the store for them. I also get name brand cleaners, laundry detergents for pennies on the dollar. All stuff I use regularly. And you do NOT have to buy 1 million of them either. You can get 2 or 3 or how many your family needs. How much do you non-coupon clippers pay to stay clean and fresh? Too much, I guarantee it. Walmart and Dollar General are now the MOST EXPENSIVE stores around and I refuse to step foot in them. When you stack coupons on top of sale items and pay $1.00 for a $6.00+ item originally, you are beating even Walmarts price of $4.
And the absolute BEST coupons in the whole world? a $5/$25 order coupon. it means you will get $5 off of a $25 order for anything in the store. doesnt matter. so you want to pick up $25 worth of fresh vegetables? you will get them for $20. And they stack, meaning you can use other manufacturer or store coupons along with that coupon.
Last, you all need to know I do not live in a state where coupons are doubled, tripled or anything like that. The value of the coupon in my hand is exactly what it says it is. I can only imagine how much more I would save if I did have a store that doubled the coupon value.
Huge Savings with coupons is real. If you want to stretch your paycheck, pay off bills faster, have extra money for vacations with your family, have food in the cupboards at the end of the month, you will learn how to coupon. For those of you that dont need extra money, please by all means keep shopping the way you are. If anyone is interrested in learning how to coupon to really save money for your family, go to krazycouponlady dot com or southernsavers dot com
I get the sunday newspaper only just for the coupons and i love them. They pay for the paper ($1 per week) and save us some extra money. However, I don't fall for items that we don't use or processed food. My faves are regular personal care items (yes, they are mostly new products coming to the market but my family and I get to try the best out there for less, like toothpaste) and necessary household items (cleaning, zip lock bags, detergents, etc.) I only like a coupon if it's close to $1 OFF or more and I buy the smallest size package allowed at Wallmart to get the most bang for my buck. Sometimes we get great coupons for coffee and tea and we get to try new flavors which we wouldn't have bought otherwise. Being flexible about the products we use is key. OH, before I forget, the newspaper is also good for high end restaurant savings - we treat ourselves to a nice dinner at Black Angus once every few months for a special occasion using their coupon and save $15 off the bill. :)
I treat coupons like found money. I never count on them. First, I only use coupons for items that I am already going to buy. This keeps the clutter down and saves on the temptation to buy something that I normally wouldn't. And, to make the time issue pay a little better, I only use coupons that are for 75 cents per item (not 75 cents when you buy 3). Granted, this system really limits the coupons available to me, but then, the couple of bucks a week that I save is like finding cash on the sidewalk. It's never very much, but is still fun to get.

There is nothing shady about the Oakley Karn Lite snowboard jacket. Made with a waterproof, yet breathable, exterior shell with critically taped seams you can be sure you will be dry and warm after a long day on the slopes. Under arm vents allow excess heat to escape while the snow skirt system and wrist gaiters keep snow out of your jacket and on the hill where it belongs. This jacket also has an attached hood so you can brave the elements with confidence.
Karn Lite
I would say great jacket but a bit to long, I am 6,1 ft, as a casual wear. But for snb or ski great!
I really like this jacket. It keeps me really dry when the snow is wet, and really warm on the colder days. Also the media/goggle pocket is on the outside, which makes it easy to use. The only real complaint that I have is, if you have the under-arm vents open there is no mesh or anything. So if you are going through deep powder the snow can get inside the jacket.

During the late 19th century the High Victorian concept of 'art for art's sake', where formal concerns were more important than narrative or moral content, influenced many artists. However, the taste for allegorical or instructional paintings also continued. This period produced many beautiful and richly painted works, a selection of which can be seen here.

For the second time this season, Post Falls High School guard Marcus Colbert wins the HS GameTime Play of the Week.
Colbert earned our top honor with a killer crossover and lay-up in last week's regional championship against Coeur d'Alene. The victory lifted the Trojans into this week's 5A state tournament.
Colbert, who is heading to Montana State on a basketball scholarship, also won the HS GameTime Play of the Week on February 6th for a nice alley-oop finish against Lake City. Post Falls girl's basketball player Lexi Smith also won the HS GameTime Play of the Week on February 13th.
Colbert's two plays and Smith's highlight are now eligible for the HS GameTime Play of the Year. We'll put that up for a vote starting next week on the HS GameTime page on KREM.com.
Stick with KREM 2 News and KREM.com this week for the best coverage of the high school basketball tournaments in Idaho and Washington.

Next to the ARK Performance's Genesis unveiled at the 2012 SEMA Show, Cosworth also unveiled a pretty cool tuning package based on the Genesis Coupe .
Dubbed the "Cosworth Genesis Racing Series," Cosworth's program for the Korean sports car sees plenty of upgrades, including custom satin and gloss blue bodywork that matches well with the carbon fiber components in the front bumper with integrated carbon fiber brake ducts, side skirt lip, front splitter, integrated trunk spoiler, and rear diffuser. There's also a new set of custom Cosworth Edition wheels with logo and hood graphics that finish off the exterior modifications.
Moving on to the interior, Cosworth gave the Genesis Coupe with a two-tone interior treatment, two-tone sports seats, a new special steering wheel, a new shift knob, a shift boot, and pedals to the overall set-up.
Finally, there's the engine modification, which includes a retuned ECU, an improved thermal management system, an optimization of the induction and exhaust systems, a new suspension set-up, enhanced engine control parameters, and new brakes. All told, the Cosworth Genesis Racing Series hits an increased output of 389 horsepower and 325 lb/ft of torque.
"The rear-drive Genesis Coupe is simply a great platform from which to build our ultimate Cosworth Genesis Racing Series street model," Nicole Armbrustmacher, director of marketing, Cosworth Americas said.
UPDATE 10/31/2012: The Hyundai Genesis Coupe "Cosworth Genesis Racing Series" by Cosworth made its official debut at the 2012 SEMA Show. Check out the picture gallery to see a new set of high res images.

We encourage you to select one of three approaches for successful transfer. Your choice of a transfer strategy should be made after considering many factors such as your major, transfer college or university, financial situation and personal needs. You'll need to make the important decisions, but we're available to listen and help you consider the benefits of each option.
Approach 1 – Earn an Associate in Arts or Associate in Science degree at Black Hawk College (64 hours)
We recommend that most students earn the AA or AS degree. If you plan to complete two years of coursework at BHC, you can benefit from compact and course equivalency agreements which have been negotiated with four-year colleges and universities for students who complete a transferable associate degree. Select courses that meet the general education and freshman/sophomore level courses for your major at your transfer school. If you need help selecting these courses, we are available to assist you.
Approach 2 – Complete the Illinois Articulation Initiative General Education Core (IAI GECC) before transferring (30-41 hours)
If you don't plan to remain at BHC long enough to complete the AA or AS degree, you may consider completing the Illinois Articulation Initiative General Education Core Curriculum. The IAI GECC is a core of general education courses that meet the lower division general education requirements at more than 100 public and private two-year and four-year colleges and universities in Illinois. By completing the IAI GECC you will meet lower division general education requirements when you transfer to an IAI participating college or university.
30 Hour Rule
If you transfer a minimum of 30 semester hours of credit from BHC to a four year college or university that is an IAI participant, you have the option of completing the IAI GECC at the transfer school.
If you complete an AA or AS degree at BHC you will automatically meet IAI requirements.
If you are undecided on a transfer school, but know your major you may benefit from IAI course recommendations for specific majors. A list of Black Hawk College IAI general education and major courses for specific transfer schools may be accessed at the IAI website.
IAI General Education Core Curriculum Worksheet
Single School IAI GECC Worksheet
IAI Participating Colleges and Universities
IAI Major Course Recommendations
Approach 3 – Select courses at Black Hawk College that meet the general education and major requirements at your transfer college or university
Regardless of how long you plan to attend BHC, your best approach to transfer may be to select courses that are equivalent to major and general education courses at your transfer college or university. This approach is most frequently used by students in certain specialized majors or those transferring to an out-of-state school. If you select this approach, you will need to collaborate carefully with your BHC advisor, as well as an advisor in your major department at your transfer school.

A sports broadcasting veteran for more than 20 years, Chris Cuthbert joined TSN in June 2005 as the voice of the CFL on TSN and play-by-play announcer for TSN's hockey broadcasts.
During the CFL season, Cuthbert calls TSN's extensive CFL coverage alongside game analyst Glen Suitor. Once the hockey season rolls around, Cuthbert switches gears to call the play-by-play for TSN's NHL coverage.
Cuthbert's vast knowledge and passion for sports is renowned - and respected - throughout the sports industry. In 2006, Cuthbert won a Gemini Award with Glen Suitor as Best Sports Play-By-Play or Analyst for their work on TSN's CFL broadcasts. Cuthbert also won a Gemini Award in 1998 as Best Sports Broadcaster, and in 2004 was recognized by Sports Media Canada as Sportscaster of the Year.
Cuthbert's sports broadcasting career spans more than two decades, calling the action for numerous Grey Cups, Stanley Cup Playoffs, Olympic Games and World Figure Skating Championships. Cuthbert's broadcast experience also includes covering gymnastics and cycling at the Commonwealth Games.
Throughout his celebrated career, Cuthbert has covered every sport at every level. Cuthbert's inaugural job in sports broadcasting was doing the play-by-play for Golden Gaels football games in 1978 for CFRC Radio in Kingston, Ont. while still a student at Queen's University. From there, Cuthbert moved to radio station CJAD in Montreal, where he was the voice of the NASL's Montreal Manic and the CFL's Montreal Alouettes and Concordes. In 1984, Cuthbert joined CBC Sports, where he remained until February 2005.
A Brampton, Ont. native, Cuthbert graduated from Queen's University in 1979 with a Bachelor of Arts degree.

It happened at the Colonial Village Apartments at Marsh Cove, off White Bluff Road.
Police received the call just before 7:30 this evening. When they arrived on scene they found the victim's red Volkswagen Beatle with the rear window shot out.
The Mobile Crime Unit was on hand to aid in the investigation.
Resident Alex Merkler was doing homework when he heard the gun shot.
It sounded like a gun or a tire blowing--I looked out the window and didn't really see anything but then one cop car pulled up and then more pulled up and I came outside and thought, 'oh man something happened.'
Police spokesperson, Julian Miller says it's an investigation that will likely take most of the evening.
"It's a death investigation, so detectives will be dotting their 'Is' and crossing their 'Ts'. A lot of detail goes into it and the devil is in the details. That's why you are going to see an awful lot of trucks pulling in behind me with a lot of people looking at an awful lot of things."
We will continue to follow this story and bring you the very latest on Coastal Sunrise and WSAV.com.

Molecule of the Week
p-Coumaric acid
July 29, 2013
In 1865, the Austrian chemist H. Hlasiwetz isolated the crystalline solid p-coumaric acid from plants. The acid is biosynthesized from cinnamic acid and occurs in many parts of legumes and other edible plant species.
Recently, M. R. Berenbaum and colleagues at the University of Illinois (Urbana-Champaign) found that honeybees fed with honey are more pesticide-resistant than those fed with substitutes such as corn syrup. They showed that p-coumaric acid extracted from honey increases bees' metabolism of the miticide coumaphos.
More about this molecule from CAS, the most authoritative and comprehensive source for chemical information.

A task force in charge with coming up with a solution on feeding the homeless in downtown Raleigh is making its recommendation to the City Council's Law and Public Safety Committee.
For years groups served meals to downtown Raleigh's homeless at Moore Square, a common place where many gather. But in August, Raleigh Police threatened those organizations with arrest if they continued to distribute food in the park.
"I was like, 'I don't know what is going to happen if they cut the food off,'" said Ben Moose, who is homeless. "A lot of people were going to be hungry."
So the city launched a task force to evaluate how to distribute food to the needy in light of concerns about how food is given away at Moore Square.
The task force is recommending that the meals be offered at a city-owned warehouse behind the previous Salvation Army location across from Moore Square on Person Street.
The goal is to offer the warehouse for charities while planning a permanent site.
Caffe Luna restaurant owner Parker Kennedy, who is on the task force, said the solution is a win-win for everyone as it both bans the park as a feeding site as well as helps the homeless population.
"It's not appropriate to open up the back of your trunk to throw out sandwiches to people in the park," Kennedy said, adding the warehouse will "provide them with hand washing opportunities, tables and chairs, bathrooms, and shelter."
Stephen Smith, with Human Beans Together, explained the warehouse "will be out of the weather, warm in the winter and have a fixed up inside."
Human Beans Together is a group dedicated to helping to alleviate hunger and homelessness by distributing food, clothing and other necessities to those in need.
If the recommendation is approved, the City Council must budget money to improve the facility and add temporary restrooms. Raleigh officials are working on cost estimates for the site, which would be open on weekends only.

Starbucks Corporation (SBUX) Showing Signs Of Being A Momo Momentum Stock
- SBUX has an average dollar-volume (as measured by average daily share volume multiplied by share price) of $357.3 million.
- SBUX has a PE ratio of 36.6.
- SBUX is currently in the upper 30% of its 1-year range.
- SBUX is in the upper 25% of its 20-day range.
- SBUX is in the upper 35% of its 5-day range.
- SBUX is currently trading above yesterday's high.
- SBUX has experienced a gap between today's open and yesterday's close of 1.3%.
'Momo Momentum' stocks are valuable stocks to watch for a variety of reasons including historical back testing and price action. Market technicians refer to such stocks as being in a mark-up phase before a possible distribution period and price decline. Technical analysts and traders frequently find that the factors referenced above tend to create a temporary burst of strong wind in a stock's sail. Nevertheless, all successful traders must excel at maximizing gains while keeping losses to an absolute minimum. For that reason, the holding period on momo momentum stocks must always be a primary consideration, and this part of the puzzle is ultimately at the discretion of each individual's risk tolerance and portfolio risk management skills. EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Get the inside scoop on opportunities in SBUX with the Ticky from Trade-Ideas. See the FREE profile for SBUX NOW at Trade-Ideas More details on SBUX: Starbucks Corporation operates as a roaster, marketer, and retailer of specialty coffee worldwide. As of September 30, 2012, the company operated 9,405 company-operated stores and 8,661 licensed stores. The stock currently has a dividend yield of 1.1%. SBUX has a PE ratio of 36.6.

The average volume for Starbucks Corporation has been 4.1 million shares per day over the past 30 days. Starbucks has a market cap of $57.5 billion and is part of the services sector and leisure industry. The stock has a beta of 0.78 and a short float of 1.2% with 2.02 days to cover. Shares are up 42.7% year to date as of the close of trading on Friday. STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12-months. Learn more. TheStreetRatings.com Analysis: TheStreet Quant Ratings rates Starbucks Corporation as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, notable return on equity, good cash flow from operations and impressive record of earnings per share growth. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company shows low profit margins. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 0.4%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 13.3%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- SBUX's debt-to-equity ratio is very low at 0.10 and is currently below that of the industry average, implying that there has been very successful management of debt levels. Along with the favorable debt-to-equity ratio, the company maintains an adequate quick ratio of 1.05, which illustrates the ability to avoid short-term cash problems.
- The return on equity has improved slightly when compared to the same quarter one year prior. This can be construed as a modest strength in the organization. Compared to other companies in the Hotels, Restaurants & Leisure industry and the overall market, STARBUCKS CORP's return on equity significantly exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- STARBUCKS CORP has improved earnings per share by 27.9% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. We feel that this trend should continue. During the past fiscal year, STARBUCKS CORP increased its bottom line by earning $1.79 versus $1.62 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($2.23 versus $1.79).
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has exceeded that of the S&P 500 and greatly outperformed compared to the Hotels, Restaurants & Leisure industry average. The net income increased by 25.5% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $332.90 million to $417.80 million.
