Monae will sing at Friday's show at Lincoln Center as part of "American Express Unstaged," a program that pairs artists of different mediums and makes their collaborations available to the public through digital media, including a live stream of the catwalk.
Minkoff and Monae will share behind-the-scenes preparations on Instagram, and viewers at home can get an insider perspective with a backstage camera and live photo feed. The live stream will be 3 p.m. Friday.
No excuses
Miley Cyrus says in a newly posted clip on MTV.com that she doesn't listen to the negative comments regarding her performance on the MTV Video Music Awards. The pop star says she felt she and Robin Thicke were making history with the risqué performance of their hits We Can't Stop and Blurred Lines. In the clip, Cyrus compares the performance to that of Madonna and Britney Spears, who kissed on air long ago. Cyrus says she is surprised people were still talking about it three days later: "You're thinking about it more than I thought about it when I did it. I didn't even think about it because that's just me."
The good life
Katie Couric really did find her Prince Charming — he's loaded. Couric's spokesman Matthew Hiltzik confirmed the engagement to Couric's financier boyfriend John Molner. Molner, 50, gave 56-year-old Couric a diamond ring over the weekend in East Hampton. Molner is a partner at investment firm Brown Brothers Harriman, who oversees mergers and acquisitions advisory work for the firm's corporate clients. It's a busy time. In between wedding planning, her talk show, Katie, starts its second season Sept. 9.
Fifth time seems to be the charm for Lorenzo Lamas. The actor, 55, was seen happy and relaxed in Miami Beach with his latest wife, hashtag happy model-actress Shawna Craig, 26. She posted pics galore on Twitter and Instagram with with various hashtags including #rechargingthebatteries #funinthesun #fontainbleu# [sic] #curves #confidence. Lamas showed his devotion to his young bride with roses, too. Caption with said bouquet: "My #hubby and I are madly #inlove and it's so sweet when he does these little things 2show it." On Monday , the couple attended the Labor Day Pool Party Fiesta thrown by Hyde Beach at the SLS Hotel.
Lamas was previously betrothed to Victoria Hilbert, Michele Smith, Daphne Ashbrook, and Shauna Sand and has six children, ranging in age from 30 to 12. We admire his stamina.

The Hawks are holding a rookie and free agent mini-camp this week. For those who don't know, rookie and free agent mini-camps generally are reserved for three types of players: 1) recent draft picks; 2) players who are trying to transition from Europe back to the NBA; 3) players who sit on the end of the bench and occasionally break their folding chairs (assuming they can fit in them).
On Tuesday, I went looking for a player in category 3 but I only found part of him. Randolph Morris was only too happy to tell me the rest of him was lost.
That and other items in this week's Tuesday Countdown. Take it Count (who by the way could lose a few pounds himself):
The Hawks need a big man. It might be a stretch to say a guy who played less than four minutes a game last season can fill the void, but Morris is giving it a run. He is 6-foot-11 and now weighs about 270 pounds. This past season, he admits only to weighing 285. There is a belief in some corners he actually topped 300. But when I asked him for that confession Tuesday, he smiled and said, "Not when I stepped on the scale. But I felt like I was 300." Fortunately, he woke up.
Before detailing how Morris changed, here's the background. Morris was supposed to be a star. He was a McDonald's All-American at Landmark Christian. He opted not to enter the NBA draft in 2004 and instead went to Kentucky (Georgia Tech, among other schools, wanted him). He was OK but certainly not great in his one season in Lexington, declared himself eligible for the draft, but didn't get taken. He petitioned to go back to the Wildcats, which the NCAA allowed on the condition he miss half the season. Following that year, he signed with the New York Knicks as a free agent. He was ordinary. Then last year, he was picked up by the Hawks, where he mostly sat.
Now, I don't know what how good Morris can be. But I know what assistant coach Tyrone Hill said Tuesday: "Whenever you can lose that much weight, it helps your quickness and you feel stronger mentally. think it's a sign of him turning over a new leaf. …We need a big guy, bad. The top four, five teams in the East are getting a lot bigger and stronger. He can help us. He's got talent. But it's really up to Randolph.
Morris said he used to "have to go to Wendy's after practice" for a quick meal. Every day. His weakness: "A bacon cheeseburger meal." Would he supersize? "Of course. I mean, when they ask you, you've got to do it, right." He also would go grocery shopping and fill his cart with soda (not diet), sweet tea, Doritos (Cool Ranch, of course), Cheetos and an assortment of cookies. "I loved those little Duplex kind. One side's white, the other side's chocolate and there's that cream in the middle. I'd get a 72-pack of those." After some nudging by his fiancée, Morris finally came to realize he needed to get in better shape. He improved his diet (fruits, whole grains, fish) and increased his workouts. Down went the inseam.
Morris is in the last year of his contract. Nothing like a little financial pressure to light a fire under your backside. Opportunity has been a motivator. He knows the Hawks haven't solved all of their issues in the post. He knows this could be it. He knows people have questioned his work ethic in the past. "I know I have a chance to prove myself. I know if I don't do it, they'll look somewhere else. I need to step up so I can play aside Al [Horford] and Zaza [Pachulia]. …One of my coaches in middle school said the worst thing they can say about you is you have potential. I know it's in there somewhere. I just have to find it."
The Miami Dolphins announced Marc Anthony has been added as a minority owner, joining entertainers Gloria and Emilio Estefan. And where you get Marc Anthony, you get Jennifer Lopez. So at the very least, the Dolphins will not be short for anthem singers. The good news is, this probably makes a miserable human being like Bill Parcells even more miserable. When you think about it, Parcells now works for J-Lo. But with her hanging around the complex, at least now he's got someone to compare butt sizes with.
As you might've read on AJC.com, Carver-Columbus high school has banned – banned! – Georgia coach Mark Richt and his assistants from recruiting on their campus. Why? The Bulldogs had the nerve to rescind a scholarship offer to a player. Dudes: Get over it. Everybody feels bad for the kid. But this kind of thing happens all the time. Schools over commit or change their mind. Yes, I'm sure the kid was embarrassed because he was in Athens on campus when Richt pulled back the offer. But please. Are we to believe that if Carver-Columbus has a linebacker or receiver who aspires to play for Georgia, his coaches aren't going to allow Richt to watch him, talk to him or work him out? Who's doing the disservice here?
Commissioner Roger Goodell said again — after the Marc Antony press conference! — that he wants to see genuine remorse from Michael Vick over what he did before he agrees to reinstate him. Look, I'm guessing that Vick officially will be off the suspension list in the next couple of weeks. But what more does he want? Regardless of where you stand on Vick as a person or an athlete, he already has lost more in terms of income, stature and reputation than any athlete in sports history. (I put him ahead of Mike Tyson because Tyson had a lot more public baggage than Vick even before he finally crashed and burned.) Do you want the man to drop to his knees and cry? Get this over with.
A minor league baseball team, the Brooklyn Cyclones, offered a pre-game Lamaze class in center field before Sunday night's game. It was one of several activities the team did in conjunction with the "Bellies and Baseball: A Salute to Pregnancy" event. They even had a "craving" station with pizza, pickles and ice cream. The Braves considered doing the same promotion in 2007. But then they just cut Bob Wickman instead.
Erin Andrews had no comment on Randolph Morris, Jennifer Lopez, Carver-Columbus, Roger Goodell or the Brooklyn Cylclone. I was told my digital editors she's kind of a big deal and I needed to get her in here somewhere.

"Dudes: Get over it. Everybody feels bad for the kid. But this kind of thing happens all the time. Schools over commit or change their mind. Yes, I'm sure the kid was embarrassed because he was in Athens on campus when Richt pulled back the offer. But please. Are we to believe that if Carver-Columbus has a linebacker or receiver who aspires to play for Georgia, his coaches aren't going to allow Richt to watch him, talk to him or work him out? Who's doing the disservice here?"
1. If Richt did this to one Carver-Columbus player, what keeps him from doing it again especially since – as you stated – "this kind of thing happens all the time."
2. What "disservice" are you talking about? Can't the Carver players who want to go UGA just do what you are urging Devin Burns to do and "get over it" and go to another school? It really looks like you guys are advocating the nonsense that UGA should get to behave however they choose and still get the players that they want. Sorry, the correct position is that UGA should be required to conduct their business in a competent, professional ethical manner or pay the consequences. Take a look at what Alabama is doing right now … the last two seasons they accepted more kids than they had room for, so now they are running kids off. A senior who was 3rd on his team in tackles last season is now going to have to finish up his education at North Alabama. You folks know the difference between trying to market an Alabama degree and a North Alabama degree in this economy. It reminds me of last year with how South Carolina and Nebraska dropped kids that had already made verbal commitments weeks before signing day. One kid had to go to Central Florida, the other – who had offers to Big East schools before Nebraska offered him because THEY WERE REALLY INTERESTED IN HIS TEAMMATE but after his teammate didn't commit to Nebraska they suddenly lost interest – had to choose between Western Carolina and Maine.
Sorry, UGA shouldn't be able to just mess over people like this with no consequences whatsoever. If UGA doesn't want to endure stuff like this, then they need to do their jobs better. I wonder if the guy in charge of notifying recruits that their offers have been pulled is the same guy in charge of making the gameplans and preparations against Florida, West Virginia, or for that matter anyone else that is actually any good. (Check Richt's record against top 5 and top 10 teams during his tenure … it isn't that hot.) If so, this is just another example of why guys like that need to go and Richt needs better assistants. Richt has only had one top assistant his entire time at UGA, Van Gorder, and he is long gone. Meanwhile, the other guys are still there. Why? Because no one else wants them! People throw piles of money at Garner, for instance, so he can recruit players, but has anyone offered him a defensive coordinator job? That is just one example, there are many others.
And this is the hilarious part: had LANE KIFFIN pulled some nonsense like this, you guys would rake him over the coals. But Saban is allowed to run kids already on scholarship off from Alabama and you say nothing, and Richt gets to humiliate 16 year olds in front of their families and you say "get over it." Please. I think that I am going to start rooting for Lane Kiffin (and Paul Johnson) to run all of you SEC good ol' boy hypocrites off the field.

Jeff, congrats on another proper take on all the stupidity that is going on in the world of sports. All we have to focus on is Golf, Baseball and the WNBA. So, what does the sports world do? Get stupid trying to drum up interest. They should require all non beat writers to go on mandatory vacations from the end of the British Open until the first week of August.
If I read one more "top ten" article from someone who has nothing else to write about, I am going to yak……top ten places to order french fries in the SEC, top ten GT victories over UGA, top ten favorite victories of the Jim Donnan era…top ten things to look for at SEC media days
all of these are top ten reasons why i try not to read the sports section this time of the year.
I don't think the Hawks will ever return to the "glory years" of Mike Fratello, Spud, 'Nique and Willis. They needed to "get over the hump" b/c all they could do was win 50 a year and finish second to the bad boy pistons, MJ, and mchale,bird and the chief. Their "getting over the hump" is the same thing the falcons did when they brought in Dan Henning…..it's taken 20 years to get back to what once was….

I feel bad for the kid that had his schollie offer rescinded. But for the coach who says he's gonna ban Richt from campus. I think this guy is a little full of himself to publicly state that he's gonna ban the coach of the states flagship university. As you said it would be a tremendous disservice to the kids at his school who would still hold a firm offer from UGA and would like to go to UGA.

With a name like Gerald, he HAS to be a Bug. I can only imagine the number of pocket protectors he owns to coordinate with his ensemble of urine-colored shirts.
As for Ms. Andrews, while I am at a complete loss as to why people believe she is much better looking than she really is (or that she does anything more or less than Jill "David Pole-Ock" Arrington ever did), what happened to her was reprehensible.
Unfortunately, she will never receive any real legal justice and probably never any monetary justice for the sexual assault (because it can be emotional as well as physical) committed against her. Believe it people, every time any person watches the peep hole video, they are recommitting the assault against Ms. Andrews. While this law was created for a particularly vile brand of pornography, it fits in this case as well. Ms. Andrews certainly never gave her consent. And while she is gator-trash with an unforgivable amount of worship for Tebow of Nazareth, no one should be assaulted in this way.
Okay, off that soap box. On to the next.
I am SICK and TIRED of people saying Mike Vick made a mistake and that he "deserves" a second chance.
Mike Vick never made a mistake. He made a crap-load of reprehensible decisions that shaped his LIFE STYLE.
And he is now, by my count, on his FIFTH CHANCE.
1. He knowingly gave a woman herpes. This is a felony sex crime. He settled.
2. He and his "Crew" stole a rather expensive watch from a businessman. This was "fixed" by former Vick-Blank-Fixer Billy Johnson.
3. He was photographed holding a joint (which he was presumably smoking) in the back seat of a limo.
4. The water bottle incident which the Miami police made "disappear." Hmmm.
5. Creating, funding, running, partaking-in, and even killing for and in a dog-fighting ring on his property. Also, illegal gambling.
So actually, Mike Vick is on his SIXTH CHANCE.
I wish all you irresponsible Vick-apologists and bleeding hearts would start writing the truth about Mike Vick.

What, is Carver-Columbue the Moeller of the South? It must be summer, if a HS football coach who thinks he's Nick Saban/Bill Parcells?Insert-Bloated-Puffery-Here draws so much attention. There are no guarantees in life, kiddies. Welcome to being an adult. And if this HS coach wants to add a "Wah factor" into the whole thing, then his goal of being a feeder school for Troy State shows lots of promise. Where I come from, we call a guy like that a crybaby sissy. Probably has Tiddlywinks tournaments after line meetings.

Gerald Ball-
Richt's record against top ranked opponents is actually pretty good. He has won 70% of those games. You must be one of those people who got rejected by UGA and had to go to Georgia State or GT. Maybe you had to settle for junior college.

The Columbus coach is out of his element. This is a family decision not some hs football coach who wants to be a king maker. If I was a parent in this school district and this coach tried to limit my son's offers from UGA or limit his access, he would be in front of a judge before you could say, "Iam just a hs coach". He has no standing in this matter. And worse yet he does not realize he has no standing in family matters. Where in the hell are the school administrators in all this. Do they realize their coach has run-a-muck and out of control. Fire this maroon.

He either finds his place or gets a new job.
July 21st, 2009
7:15 pm
Actually Paddy. It is his place. He has every right to bar anyone from the field and the locker room. And UGA recruiters have every right to contact a player outside the locker room if they really want him. This move is really symbolic, as he can't control his players off the field.

It's funny how Saint Richt is given a pass for this snafu, but Paul Johnson is roasted by these same hypocrites for jerking a scholarship from a kid who decided to visit Auburn even after PJ told him his scholarship would be rescinded.
July 21st, 2009
8:47 pm
Yeah, because there are non-delusional people who believe that Vick doesn't have any kind of "right" to play football (he doesn't), because we correctly point out that Vick never made any mistakes, but decisions which defined a deplorable lifestyle, because we believe that he isn't sorry for what he did, simply sorry he got caught doing it (because, you know, he hasn't done anything, not in his bankruptcy hearing, nowhere to make anyone believe he feels any remorse)…
… because of all that, we're racists.
Seems to me that the people who want to excuse everything he's done because of the color of his skin (much like they did with O.J.) are the REAL racists.

Tech Dan… that answer is just too commercial. He is interferring with the due process that ONLY belongs to the parents and the kid. If he thinks that he can cut off any access to the parents right to review scholarship offers, he is malfesant in his duties. He must be fired, period. He should park his ego and just do his job of coaching not parenting. Guys like him should be collard and told what to do, he has no business making that kind of policy decision. He is just luckey he didn't get in this mans way. I would have run him thru the court system till he cried uncle if he interfered with my children.

Paddy: If you're son was good enough to get a full ride at UGA, then he's good enough to get a full ride at any other place. If Georgia wants him, they'll contact him regardless of whether their allowed on the campus or not. If the kid wants to play for UGA, he'll get his chance. Like I said, the "ban" means little, and many of you want to crucify this coach for standing up for his kids the only way he can. Get a life.

Jeff, many coaches have pulled scholarship offers like this and found themselves banned from high schools. And it has adversely affected the talent of their future recruiting classes. This isn't something Richt should take lightly.
That he did it while the kid was visiting the campus was low class. But the basic wrongness of the decision is the same regardless of that. The basic sin was offering the kid. The worse sin was waiting until a bit over a month before the start of the season to decide it.
Now the kid's options are significantly reduced and that's the worst aspect of the decision. Don't offer unless you are prepared to take the kid. And then don't wait until late July to pull the offer unless the kid himself did something wrong. This kid didn't. He deserved better!

Can anyone tell me the shelf life of a scholarship offer? Do they come with code dates? Do they start smelling bad after four or five months sittiing around. Do they turn green or spotty or do they just wilt? Can a recruit be responsible for acting on the scholarship before the code date expires? Should a high school coach tell his student player that he better use that offer before it goes bad? What is the coach's responsibility in getting his student to use that scholarship before it goes out of date?

Greater Atlanta Christian 52, Hapeville Charter 7: Greater Atlanta Christian led 45-0 at the half and 52-0 after three quarters as it coasted past Hapeville Charter.

Greater Atlanta Christian also got 103 rushing yards and two scores from Jaelen Venable and a 39-yard interception return to the endzone by Ross Wood.
Lovett 41, Wesleyan 13: Host Lovett roared to a 35-0 halftime lead on the strength of two rushing touchdowns by Grant Haley (51, 3) and two touchdown passes by Willie Candler (46, 45). Miles Henderson added an 82-yard rushing score in the third quarter for the Lions on his only carry of the game.

Just wanted to remind everyone who has been to the dome for the last 5 years in double A. The same team who has scored over 60 points the last 2 games
October 26th, 2013
7:29 pm
football guy is that the same team that only scored 7 points in grisham stadium? lol!
October 26th, 2013
7:35 pm
The same team that beat the trojans last year AA beating AAAA LOL
October 27th, 2013
7:05 am
oh yeah the same trojans team that that had to put that AA team back in its place with a 35 point beat down THIS year! Now that order has been restored I don't see Calhoun wanting to play carrollton again.
October 27th, 2013
8:31 am
if they played 10 times Calhoun would win 9 of them. Carrollton has to feel very lucky that they dont have to play them again. Calhoun had four turnovers and the QB was injured so Carrollton was lucky.
October 27th, 2013
10:45 am
But there was nothing wrong with the Calhoun's defense 35 point loss say they shouldn't have come to carroll county anyway. Calhoun is lucky the starters didn't play the whole game and we had a running clock. the injury thing doesn't fly either carrollton had 5 or 6 starters that didn't play in the game a blowout is a blowout no matter how you look at it.

11:04 am
You need to go to the 4A blog and try to convince everyone that Carrlloton is better than Sandy Creek. There is a reason they are ranked no 1 in 4A. I look for them to shutdown the Trojans. You will need the same luck you had when you played Calhoun to have a chance. You will find out you were pretenders and not contenders
October 27th, 2013
5:44 pm
lucky? Calhoun got humiliated. They would've been considered "lucky", it it was a tight game and the ball just bounced the other way. They got beat like Calhoun wallops their weak division.

kind of like last year when the trojans got humiliated losing to a AA team with pretty much the same team they have now

Education reform enthusiasts had their day at the Indiana Statehouse Monday, packing the rotunda with charter and private-school students bused in for the event.
Imagine the outrage if students from traditional public schools missed class for a political rally.
The brightly-colored T-shirts worn by many of the participants listed sponsors, including Americans for Prosperity, funded by the Koch brothers.
In addition to charter supporter Jalen Rose, the rally drew most of the state's top Republican officials, including Gov. Mike Pence, Senate President Pro Tem David Long and House Speaker Brian Bosma. Superintendent Glenda Ritz, a Democrat, was not invited.
There were plenty of pronouncements of the value of school choice.
"Choice in education creates competition," Long said. "Competition creates a better product, a better outcome."
But the ed reform proponents still lack the data to back their assertions. More than a decade of charter school experience in Indiana suggests the "better outcome" is on the part of for-profit companies and real estate investors. Students at seven Ball State University-authorized charter schools slated for closing this year certainly haven't seen one.
What ed reform proponents do have on their side are all of the right talking points: Parent empowerment, school choice, students first. The fact that none actually exist in the corporate-driven, anti-union effort is beside the point.
Public education supporters will have their day at the Statehouse next week, when a rally is set for 2:30 p.m. March 19. The Indiana Coalition for Public Education is the organizer, but look for a large and enthusiastic crowd of public ed supporters, energized by Ritz's election and growing dissatisfaction with the so-called reform agenda.
Next Tuesday's effort is a final push against expansion of the state's voucher law, which is expected to cost at least $26 million.
One encouraging note for the voucher opponents: Sen. Luke Kenley apparently wasn't a party to the ed reform rally. The General Assembly's lead budget-maker has publicly questioned the cost of expanding the nation's most expansive voucher law and noted that it was sold two years ago as a means of allowing students in struggling schools to attend a private or parochial school.
Nor should voucher opponents be discouraged by the newly elected governor's participation. Pence might be squarely on the ed reform side now, but my 25 years of observing his political behavior tells me he will reconsider with a groundswell of support for public education and some strong arguments on its behalf.
Vic Smith, a retired Indiana educator and former Department of Education administrator, noted that Pence told Monday's crowd that 12 percent of Indiana high school seniors failed to graduate last year, "not mentioning the fact the 88 percent is the highest rate of four-year graduates Indiana has ever had."
But the governor's remarks were likely prepared for him. Public education supporters need to ensure he hears the other side of the story.
Pence will listen. He and his wife, Karen, already have visited public schools since he took office. He'll be in northeast Indiana tomorrow, visiting the impressive Four County Area Vocational Cooperative in Kendallville. Visits to public schools were rare in the previous administration.
Here's what Smith, a tireless advocate for public schools, has to say about the voucher bill:
House Bill 1003 is far worse than the original voucher bill passed two years ago. It ends the rationale that vouchers save the state money. It pays more state dollars for each elementary voucher, and it pays for vouchers for students who are already in private schools. These major changes mean direct new fiscal costs. A conservative estimate of new costs comes to $26 million:
1) Special education students currently in private schools become eligible for a voucher. The most recent figures from the IDOE website show 4211 such students. An estimated 75% meet the income limit of $85,000 for a family of four. Cost to taxpayers at LSA's estimate of $4083 on average for each voucher: $12.8 million.
2) The $4500 cap on the Grade 1-8 voucher is raised to $5000 the first year and to $5500 the second year. Cost to taxpayers according to LSA: $1.9 million at a minimum. A superintendent whose district only gets $5300 per student deeply opposes this change.
3) Children of veterans currently in private schools become eligible for a voucher. IDOE data shows 72,000 students currently in private schools that report enrollment to the department. An estimated 75% meet the income limit of $85,000 for a family of four. If just 3% of those students have a parent who is a veteran, the cost to taxpayers would be $6.6 million.
4) The preschool scholarship granting organizations in this bill would be able to give away $5 million in tax money as tax credits for donations to preschool tuition support.
The first three points, totaling $21 million, will come out of the tuition support budget in the funding formula. There is no separate line item for vouchers. This $21 million cost equals about one-sixth of the $132 million in new money for tuition support in the House budget for next year. The fourth point, tax credits, will reduce state revenues by $5 million.
These conservative estimates totaling over $26 million do not include the cost of vouchers provided for foster children currently in private schools or for kindergarten siblings of current voucher students.
I have heard voucher proponents on media reports saying they need to increase the Grade 1-8 voucher from $4500 to $5500 so they can get more out-of-state private school operators interested in coming into Indiana to build new schools. Have they given up on the schools of Indiana to the point where they need to incentivize out-of–state companies to come to Indiana to take over educating our children? This is clearly going in the wrong direction.

A word from Shun Lee Cafe
With Shun Lee Cafe conveniently located across from Lincoln Center, Dim Sum is just the ticket. The Cafe, a black and white checkerboard dining room, decorated with images from the Chinese calendar.Continued
Terrific Dim Sum on rolling carts in constant motion and a variety of dishes in smaller portions completes the menu at Shun Lee Cafe. The Cafe is a great pre-theater stop for a "quick" dinner.

- Your choice--dim sum or full mealDiscoveringnyVIPDined on 9/21/2014Great if you happen to be going to anything at Lincoln Center.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great dim sumNewyorkchickVIPDined on 9/21/2014Yes, it's cheaper in Chinatown but this is nicely located and clean. The carts of dim sum have improved. Also ordered off the menu and was very happy with the shrimp and lobster sauce. These are small portions compared to regular chinese restaurants and the prices are high but I still think it's one of the best chinese restaurants in the upper west side.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dim SumDimSumFunDined on 9/18/2014Lots of fun... great if you're on a time schedule. The food is good, wait staff friendly and the atmosphere is fun, Chinese zodiac sculptures interesting!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always a pleasureEmEssDined on 9/14/2014The food here is from the Shun Lee kitchen and so is excellent while the atmosphere in this adjacent cafe is informal, That makes this a fun, not stuffy place to eat. Dim Sum carts are constantly being wheeled about to add a great deal of variety to the menu and the staff is attentive and efficient. I've been coming here for many years and find that before or after a movie or a Lincoln Center event, the Shun Lee Cafe is always appropriate and a pleasure.Special Features:
- LilaBuburinVIPDined on 9/7/2014Great dim sum! Almost like being in china again! Loved itSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- quick mealSpangleNYCVIPDined on 8/24/2014This has become a ritual for us on a Sunday night when we want a small, fast dinner. There is a good variety of dim sum, and one can also order from the large menu, so all tastes are satisfied. The steamed dim sum has been usually delicious and fresh, though some nights it perhaps has been made a while before and it's a bit tough. We are always warmly greeted and recognized, which adds to the pleasure of this being a comfortable neighborhood restaurant.
- Shun lee CafeElizabethVIPDined on 8/23/2014we have not been to this restaurant for a while and while we found the service levels high - very nice greetings - waiters were very attentive, we found the food lack luster - especially the noodles in bean paste and meat. We probably won't be back anytime soon sadly as we loved coming for the dim sum. We found the dim sum unmemorable as well as being expensive
- Good Find, but pricey for Dim SumsaphireintoVIPDined on 8/2/2014Visiting NYC for the weekend and made this reservation on the fly through Open Table nearby search for lunch. They were very accommodating. The service was very attentive and quick. The food was good, but not a huge selection of Dim Sum was brought around. They did go and make the shrimp rice rolls special for me, when I asked if they were coming around. I found the portions to be small. Some were only three per basket. The pricing was on the high end for Dim Sum ... probably geared more for tourists and theatre goers, not local diners.Special Features:
- I loved the Dim SumBonjourLIDined on 7/26/2014The Dim Sum was passed around frequently and the service was fast. This was perfect for us as we had to catch the Bolshoi across the street and were running late. The food was excellent and you can stop when you are filed up.Special Features:
- Love Shun Lee CafeEastBrunswickFoodieDined on 7/12/2014We always enjoy dining here. Frat tasty food served by a very professional staff. Sets the standard for delicious Chinese food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lincoln Center so reliabledehillerinVIPDined on 7/12/2014What would I do without the Shun Lee Cafe? The food is consistently very good, and I can get less than a full meal there before I sit for a long performance. Service accommodates ticket-holders, and everyone is very pleasant and efficient.Special Features:
- Good Dinner choicedineoutDined on 7/12/2014Shun Lee cafe gives a reasonably priced option for dinner near Lincoln Center.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- GoodFoodLoverVIPDined on 7/4/2014Our waitress was very inexperienced. This is a restaurant that serves dim sum, brought around in a cart for the diners to choose. The young woman who served us took very long to come around after we had finished what we had selected earlier. We had to call her to our table. Her English was almost non-existent so we had trouble communicating which dim sums we wanted or finding out what was in each of the ones she had in the cart. The ones we ate were good, but not excellent. We had selected this restaurant because of its proximity to Lincoln Center, where we were attending a performance.
- SusanDined on 6/28/2014Great variety of dim sum constantly circulates throughout the small closely packed tables. We had pre Lincoln Center performance dinner and comfortably made our 8PM curtain.Special Features:
- convenient location/overpriced foodll12Dined on 6/28/2014If going to Lincoln Center, this is the perfect location. Food is OK, nothing special - went for dim sum at 6 PM - no variety - the same two groups of offerings kept coming around - fried or unfried. Very skimpy servings for price charged - $7.50 for 3 pork dumplings? Not even enough to properly share - at least give 4 pieces for 2 people.Special Features:
- Excellent!jsotovalenciaDined on 6/27/2014My daughter and I had a few of the dim sum items from the cart, each was delicious: shrimp shumai, vegetable springroll, pork dumpling. I wanted to try the scallops and the taro crisps and so much more, but I was warned to save room for the entrée! We then shared the Mandarin style salmon (with crunchy water chestnuts and delightful snap peas) and a tasty moo shu pork. Accompanied by a robust cabernet sauvignon (and a refreshing ginger ale for my tweenager), we had an EXCELLENT meal and will go there as often as we can!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Birthday dinnerOutOfTownerDined on 6/24/2014Treated my sister to dim sung for her birthday prior to the ballet at Lincoln Center. Asked for and received a nice table for the occasion. Restaurant brought out surprise ice cream with candle for my sister. Very Nice touch!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best of Chinese Dining in areaLuvgreatfoodDined on 6/24/2014We always enjoy dining at Shun Lee Cafe when we are going to Lincoln Center. The food is consistently good, the service attentive and we can actually have a conversation with our friends. Open table makes it convenient to make reservations.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dim Sum at Shun Lee Cafefoodlover1Dined on 6/15/2014Very little choice of dim sum. Slow, almost non-existent service. We were sitting two tables away from a mirrored wall that needed cleaning- very unappetizing to have to look at this while eating. Decidedly not the Shun Lee we knew and loved.
- Anniversary28VIPDined on 6/14/2014the orange beef was wonderful. the dim sum was very good. the angel hair with duck was a bit disappointing. all in all, we enjoyed it very much.Special Features:

- Excellent Once AgainABTBuffDined on 5/28/2014The Shun Lee Cafe is one of my favorite places to eat. There are carts wheeled around offering a wide selection of fried and steamed dim sum. There is also a selection of Chinese dishes. The food is excellent, the staff courteous, the service attentive. It is an excellent place to dine before attending Lincoln Center. You will not be disappointed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Consistently deliversRayUWSVIPDined on 5/16/2014Shun Lee has been in the neighborhood for years and the food is always excellent. It's a more upscale Chinese restaurant but definitely worth it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food is excellentABTBuffDined on 5/14/2014Shun Lee Cafe is the perfect place to go before an evening at Lincoln Center. While you can order regular dishes of Chinese food, the Cafe is known more for Dim Sum. The carts are continually wheeled around - one fore steamed food and one for fired food. I would suggest making reservation. They get very busy with good reason.Special Features:
- DisappointingLAckDined on 5/13/2014The food was not as good as on previous visits. The dim sum were flavorless and the one entree we tried was only fairly good. We won't be back.

- USWDinerVIPDined on 5/3/2014Dim dum carts, regularly refreshed, provided excellent variety. Soup dumplings were available as a special "spring" order. While pricey, these were brought some of the best we've had in New York. The Beijing Duck roll -- the components of the dish prepared in a wrapper and fried -- was sinfully delicious.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 4/29/2014great food..fast service..good location..nice and friendly staff...fairly pricedSpecial Features:
- Shun Lee Cafe was just Great!JWest1Dined on 4/25/2014Pre-theater dinner for Lincoln Center can be a bit of a challenge if you don't want too expensive or too casual. This fits right in the middle. The service was attentive to our theater time, the food was delicious and very well cooked. Wine was not extensive, but more than adequate and the prices were fair for the quality of this restaurant. Shun Lee West is more formal, which is why we wanted table cloths, but not too formal. We were more than pleased with our experience and service.
- same old reliable Asian restaurantDisappointedVIPDined on 4/21/2014If you can put up with a slightly pressing service, you may enjoy some good dim sum. The decor has not been updated in years, and it shows. But it is still a nice restaurant for a quick dinner in the Lincoln Center area.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Chinese for quick mealLesPenseesVIPDined on 4/15/2014Great for a quick meal before or after show when time is limited. One of the best Chinese food in Manhattan, although the qualify of some of the dumplings were better in the past.Special Features:
- DebbieDined on 4/15/2014Absolutely great food and ambiance. The decor makes for a unique experience and dim sum with rolling carts was great. Bathrooms need to be redone though. Broken soap pumps and broken hooks. Plastic garbage pails give a cheap look to an otherwise upscale dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Gem by Lincoln CenterDfromCTDined on 4/8/2014Headed to a concert at Julliard, so a friend recommended Shun Lee's Cafe. The roving dim sum cart that stops at your table has delicious treats. Three of us ordered 3 main courses to share. They came divied up and beautifully plated- and they were delicious. We will definitely return to Shun Lee Cafe. The main restaurant is supposed to be very good too, but the cafe's roving carts make it fun and uniqueSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Great Little Yoghurt
The best baby/toddler yoghurt or fromage frais that I've found. Not chalky (Plum), not runny (Rachel's), not packed with sugar (Petit Filou), not gloopy (others). Just right. Yummy in my (ahem, baby's) tummy.

A healthy unsweetened delight
Both my kids love this yoghurt. It's a great texture, doesn't dribble so safe for toddlers who don't want a bib anymore and the pots are nice & round at the bottom, so easy to finish all by yourself. Plus lovely bright red coloured pots as a bonus. We love that it is natural and subtly flavoured, with no added sugar. Finally there is such a yoghurt!!! A great success all round!

MUSKEGON (WKZO) -- The first cases of epizootic hemorrhagic disease in the state this fall have turned up in white-tailed deer in Muskegon County.
EHD is transmitted by gnats to the deer and kills them within eight to 36 hours. The Department of Natural Resources does not expect the virus to be widespread this year.
EHD killed thousands of deer statewide last year, with the most deaths in west and southwest Michigan.

Two workers injured in a blast at US Magnesium's Rowley plant in Tooele County remained in critical condition Saturday at University Hospital's Burn Center.
The victims, a 49-year-old supervisor and a 25-year-old worker whose names were not released, were said to be burned over their heads and torsos when hot gases erupted at the plant Friday morning.

|Post a Comment
The incident was under investigation, but officials said it was possible the explosion occurred when a lid was lifted or blown open by pressurized gas from a brick-lined steel furnace device.
The plant is at 12819 N. Rowley Road northwest of Grantsville, on the western shore of the Great Salt Lake about 60 miles west of Salt Lake City.
US Magnesium emergency personnel provided initial care to the injured men at the plant's clinic shortly after the incident, which was reported to public authorities in a 911 call at 4:45 a.m. Friday. Tooele County paramedics arrived and took over, preparing the unconscious victims for evacuation in two medical helicopters.
Though an investigation was preliminary, company officials said the eruption reportedly happened as the workers labored to bring a piece of equipment back on line after several days of maintenance work.
A spokesperson for Tooele County Emergency Management characterized the burns suffered by the younger man as more extensive than those of the supervisor.
Representatives from U.S. Magnesium could not be reached for comment Saturday.
US Magnesium is the largest producer of primary magnesium in North America, according to officials.

The Great Eight
1. Authenticity
We are a group of genuine, passionate people. We are true to the participation, progression and lifestyle of the sports and style we represent and at a deeper level we are committed to being ourselves.
2. Balanced Ambition
At evo, we are committed to balance. While extremely challenging, balancing professional ambitions and life outside of work is core to this company's success.
3. Credibility
We are working hard to earn respect from our core customer.
4. Style
We are dedicated to creatively exceeding our customer's and partner's expectations in a style that can only be called "evo style".
5. Leadership
At evo we lead by example, are not afraid to take risks and learn from our failures. We strive to be leaders as individuals and as a company to ultimately change things for the better.
6. Respect
evo is focused on being respectful to all individuals, the industries and communities we live and play in.
7. Communicación
evo promotes a culture of respectful communication throughout the company; communication is central to building and nurturing strong, trusting relationships. Communication is an obligation.
8. Evolución
There is always a better way of doing things and we are committed to continually finding ways to improve.
The Foundation
What/Who is evo?
What exactly does evo mean? You will probably get a number of different answers whether it comes from a customer, partner, or employee. However, evo's foundation is built on core values that should shine through regardless of the relation of the person associated with us.
From the beginning, evo has promoted the all-important balance between lifestyle and the workplace. In fact, working for evo is a lifestyle. It is being involved and promoting the progression of the sports we represent. It is being respectful to all individuals, the industry and community we are fortunate to live and work in. It is also about having a sense of humor and being able to laugh at our past mistakes and quirky individuality.
Working for evo is a morning session on the lake before putting in a hard day's work. It is also spending an extra hour with the local non-profit that won't necessarily ad to the bottom line. While we are a company that aggressively pursues new opportunities, evo's culture is about balanced ambition that will continue to reward well-rounded people as well as fuel a successful company.
Creatively Exceeding Expectations
evo is dedicated to creatively exceeding its customer and partner expectations. Every company vows to exceed expectations, but doing it with "evo style" means making a person stop and take note. It is doing things in a way that is not only unexpected, but creative to the point that it makes evo stand out from all other companies. Creatively exceeding expectations is taking off for a powder day to ski with a local rep and skydiving with the sales manager from the local wakeboard manufacturer. It means bending over backwards to not only maintain a solid relationship, but to nurture that relationship on all levels. evo is always thinking of new ways to add value and character to the evo experience.
Whether it is with a customer, business partner or fellow employee, communication is an obligation. Hoping an issue works itself out is not good enough. We all make mistakes and we know that without them, we will not grow and learn in the way that we should. Communicating at every level from the important to trivial issue is central to building and nurturing solid, trusting relationships.
Everyone at evo understands that there is always a better way to do it. 20 years down the road, after 1000 tweaks to the process, we know that there is still a better way. After getting 100% customer/partner satisfaction, we know that there is still a better way. We need to always focus on humility and we realize that we need to evolve as quickly as the sports we represent. We understand that no one is immune to stagnation and that we have to nurture and stimulate our young, creative, entrepreneurial spirit that makes us who we are.
evo will always strive to be the destination retail locations for those seeking the progressive sports we represent. Not only will evo be involved in the promotion of the sports, it will always be working hard to demand respect from the core customer. This customer spends a large part of his/her day thinking about the perfect drop, endless glass, deepest powder, best transition. The core customer shares the same passion for the sports that we do and is demanding of not only the product, but also the company that's selling it.

I promise not too post much about the CBA talks, in fact this may be the only time. I did want to discuss an interesting item though and would love to know your thoughts.
In any negotiation, being familiar with the other side and their tactics is important. It's also vital to be aware of things like indifference to the outcome, previous actions and the points in the negotiations in which they occur.
I have to tell you, I don't see a way for the players to win this on any level. On September 15th, Bettman will announce a lockout. As exhibition games (all money for the owners btw) get cancelled the negotiations become more difficult and the clock ticks.
Last time, the season was cancelled three months after the lockout was imposed. From what we read, the players side remains focused on negotiating based on the previous CBA and the old HRR. The owners side has moved on and refuses to go back, and today's break happened because of this fracture.
My question is this: what do the players have at their disposal to use as a hammer? They are the ones who risk losing a season of their careers, while the owners close up their game of Monopoly and put it in amongst the games of Sorry, Operation, Snakes and Ladders, Trouble and Kerplunk.
Gary Bettman has killed a season before and is willing to do it again. Nothing is more powerful in a negotiation than indifference in regard to the outcome. How do you manage crazy?
And the second question is this: if the owners are willing to be this reckless with the game, with their reputations and with the fans, why on earth are we staying?
Seriously. It's a game on ice with skates, sticks, pucks and a goal. We can enjoy it on another level, should we choose to. I think it is a very healthy process for each of us to examine our love of the game, the reasons we enjoy it and the reasons we are angry about where it is headed.
I think the answer might be that we've created a monster. The fans are sacrificed, seasons of players are sacrificed and all because Ed Snider doesn't want to hand one dime to Peter Karmanos. I get that, hell if I were Snider I'd feel the same way. Still, I don't care about Snider or Karmanos. This silliness is impacting my devotion to this beautiful game as presented by the NHL. I'm not angry, but rather confused by my own behaviour. In what other part of my life would I consider this kind of treatment acceptable?
I can't think of any.

As a high school senior balancing several college classes and a skating career, Daniel Kulenkamp is not your average 18-year-old.
"It's one of my favorite things to do obviously... otherwise I would not be this devoted," says Kulenkamp.
Figuring skating from the time he was just four years old, Kulenkamp started competing when he was 11.
"We put him on skates because I was a high school hockey coach and wanted him to play hockey" says his dad, David Kulenkamp. He feel in love with the show the first year and then it's history."
Last year, he placed fifth at Nationals and continues to work toward his dream of going to the Olympics, but as all skaters know the expense of ice times, travel, coaches and costumes all come at a price.
"It's a big sacrifice we both have extra jobs. 2nd, 3rd jobs to make sure he gets there," David Kulenkamp said.
To give back, Kulenkamp decided to put together a fundraiser he's calling Skatemare. His goal is to help some of the groups that have helped him along the, especially the Minnesota Skating Scholarship Fund
Skatemare will feature 30 skaters from all over the twin cities ranging from 8 years old to adults.
"We've got so many rinks here in the cities you'd think we were all kinda connected…not really," says Kulenkamp. "We're all kinda separate and it's so nice to finally pull everyone together."
"I'm really proud of him because when he came and said he wanted to do this I said it will be your show -- I will help with the choreography, and he's taken it and ran with it and it's going to be great," says his coach, Rose Esteb.
The show includes local talent from kids as young as 8 years old to one of Daniel's coaches, former Olympian Caryn Kadavy.
The money raised will be divided between the Minnesota Skating Scholarship Fund, Hearts for Charity and Hand to Hand.

For more than 30 years, the Stanford Settlement Senior Center has helped to lift the loneliness that often shadows those growing older.
Without it, some might go days without the good cheer and company of others.
The center, 450 W. El Camino Ave., is part of the Stanford Settlement Neighborhood Center, which provides social services and emergency help to disadvantaged individuals and families in the Gardenland-Northgate, North Sacramento and Natomas communities. The Senior Center provides meals, activities, counseling and conversation in a bright and friendly atmosphere.
As many as 70 seniors can be found there many mornings. They are grateful for the opportunity.
Joanne Hodgkinson, 75, for example, visited the center for the first time several months ago. Before that, her only source of socializing came while sitting in a treatment chair in a dialysis center, chatting with other patients.
Her son brings her nearly every day to the Senior Center.
"It gives you something to look forward to tomorrow," said Hodgkinson, who enjoys doing crafts. "I was getting very introverted just staying home. It wasn't good. You need to converse and be with other people."
Blanch Shakir, 72, agreed. A volunteer at the center, she greets visitors and makes sure greeting cards get signed and sent for birthdays, sickness and personal losses.
"It's just a warm and inviting place," Shakir said.
In 1993, the existing Senior Center was built to replace a smaller one, said Sister Jeanne Felion, executive director of Stanford Settlement and a member of the Sisters of Social Service. At that time, the seniors who came were an active group, she said.
With time, the population grew older and more frail. The center remains comfortable, but a structural struggle has emerged: The large and heavy glass front doors, which can be difficult even for a younger person to open.
"When we built the center in 1993, we didn't think about the doors," Felion said.
"Nobody was in a wheelchair and very few used walkers. Today, so many more are in walkers or wheelchairs. They have to wait for someone else to open the door for them."
Felion is asking Book of Dreams readers to support the purchase of an automatic door opener, which the center cannot afford, to provide more ease and independence for those seeking fellowship at the center.
NEEDED: Automatic door opener for the Stanford Settlement Senior Center.

Violent video games and child aggression
Do children become more aggressive after playing video games or are aggressive kids more attracted to violent videos?
The shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut on Dec. 14 has left the world shocked and heartbroken. In the wake of 26 deaths, including 20 children, there is a desperate search for answers.
As the community of Newtown and the nation try to make sense of why an individual would carry out such devastation, gun control, mental health issues and violent video games have all been called into question.
As details unfold surrounding Adam Lanza, the 20-year-old Newtown shooter, his "strange" behavior and "obsession" with violent video games keeps surfacing. Lanza lived at his mother's colonial-style mansion, where he had two of the house's four bedrooms – one for himself and the other for the computer where he played violent video games, reports the The Telegraph.
According to express.co.uk, Lanza's favorite video game was said to be a shockingly violent fantasy war game called Dynasty Warriors. Was it a game or easy access to a deadly arsenal of guns – he reportedly learned how to shoot after his mother took him to local ranges - that inspired Lanza to carry out the deadly massacre?
The topic of virtual violence resulting in real life aggression has long been controversial. Are these games simply a fun hobby, or for children who may already be mentally or emotionally unstable, do these games have the ability to push someone over the edge?
A study by Dr. Craig A. Anderson, Ph.D., of Iowa State University in Ames looked at how children and teen's video game habits at one time related to their behavior three to six months later, reports CNN.com.Bing: The latest developments in the Connecticut school shooting.
In every group, children who were exposed to more video game violence did become more aggressive over time than their peers who had less exposure, cites the study. This was true even after the researchers took into account how aggressive the children were at the beginning of the study – a strong predictor of future bad behavior, reports CNN.com.
The findings are "pretty good evidence" that violent video games do indeed cause aggressive behavior, Dr. L. Rowell Huesmann, director of the Research Center for Group Dynamics at the University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research in Ann Arbor was quoted on CNN.com.
"There is a real harm in children having exposure to violence, such as playing violent video games," says Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Debra Kissen, Ph.D., M.H.S.A. of Chicago, IL. "By playing violent video games, children (and adults) become desensitized to this content and therefore experience less of an emotional reaction to violence," says Kissen. "Therefore, violent behavior becomes normalized and becomes a more reasonable alternative when experiencing a conflict."
Other researchers have challenged the association between violent video game use and school shootings, saying that most of the young perpetrators had personality traits, which were apparent before the shootings and predisposed them to violence, reports the Harvard Mental Health Letter. These factors make it more difficult to accept the playing of violent games as an independent risk factor.
Do you think that violent video games trigger aggressive behavior in kids? Why or why not?

Bing: How to tell if your child is emotionally disturbed
More from MSN Living:
Mom of mentally ill son asks for help
Whether - and what - to tell your kids about this tragedy
How to help your kids feel safe
Ok ,So some of you are saying that a person sitting in front of a 45" HD or a 3D tv with surround sound and INTERACTIVELY changing the game and having the ability to choose weapons' and opponents' for 4,6,or 8 hours a day killing the enemy against other players that are real people with very good real life graphics has no effect on a person??
Look up brain washing in a dictionary!!
Now factor in a young person that has issues and or in on meds! not to mention a bad home life with questionable parents with poor morals!!
I never wanted to hurt anyone after playing space invaders or pac man !!! But then they were not INTERACTIVE were they !!
So if video games influence kids to be violent then watching all the gays on TV are going to make them homosexual? All the stupid (and I mean STUPID) so-called comedy sitcoms are going to make them even stupider? Oh, and watching the go nowhere politics in D.C. might show them how being selfish is the right road to success.
Actually the cause of violent behavior is milk - people that lean toward aggressive behavior were given milk to drink at least one meal a day as children. Instead of pointing fingers at external stimuli maybe it would be better to look for signs of inappropriate aggression through mental health resources.
I'm 63 and play World of Warcraft - I interact with any number of players during gameplay and play both PvP and PvE. For non-gamers that's player vs player and Player vs Encounter. That's where the players aggression starts and ends - the game is cathartic and serves to channel and end aggression within the game.
Pretty obvious the "professionals" don't play video games.
I recommend Bowling For Columbine, by Micheal Moore. I know you all think he's a commie nut, but I disagree. He is also a lifetime member of the NRA. He shows that there are countries around the world who have as many guns per capita, as violent entertainment, and as much of just about anything you can blame for our despicable performance compared to the rest of them.
Spoiler alert. He finds that the reason is probably fear. Our for profit new organizations live on it. If it bleeds, it leads. I am guilty of not doing my research personally, but we can put a date on the time that news changed from a public service to a public shame. I will see if I can find a correlation between the violence rate before an after. I invite you to do the same.

For many Collier County residents in need, St. Matthew's House is a shoulder to lean on, especially during the holidays.
"It's a heartwarming experience," says St. Matthew's House President Vann Ellison.
Hundreds of volunteers showed up at St. Matthew's House today led by Florida Governor Rick Scott.
"I'm always appreciative of organizations like St. Matthew's House and what they do every day," said Gov. Scott.
St. Matthew's will feed over 700 people for the holiday -- more than previous years.
"What's different this year is the economy has been devastated for so long, you see a lot more families and individuals.
But Governor Scott says he can't help but notice that the economy is bouncing back, especially in Naples.
"Anne and I went walking this morning around Naples and couldn't believe the amount of homes that are being constructed right now," he said.
Even though it's Thanksgiving, several topics are still on Scott's mind, one being the complaints out of Southwest Florida with November's election.
"Let's make sure people feel like they have honest, fair elections and that they want to go out and vote," he says.
Another topic is that of a ban on texting and driving – something he's still unsure on.
"There's a lot of discussion about texting and driving this year. I'm going to look at the bill, look at it then, and make a decision at that point," he says.
Regardless, Scott says the entire state is growing every day and it isn't going unnoticed.
"We have almost 900 million tourists this year in our state and I know a lot of them want to be here in Southwest Florida," he says.
