A man who spent more than three months in the hospital recovering from severe burns in a Peoria house explosion is going home.
Beau Zimbro, 32, was burned over nearly 70 percent of his body and in a coma for most of his hospital stay but he is expected to make a full recovery.
Zimbro's girlfriend, Tiara Del Rio, 21, suffered third-degree burns to half of her body when their home on Cholla Street exploded in mid-October while they were both inside.
The burn center at Maricopa Medical Center held a news conference on Friday where Zimbro spoke about his recovery.
"Overall, I feel great that I finally kind of get to take the next step in my rehabilitation," Zimbro said.
He said he's looking forward to being home and spending time with his daughter and his girlfriend.
"I'm just so grateful that I'm here for it. I have so many people to thank. (Without them) I couldn't be this far, I'd be dead," Zimbro said.
He thanked the Peoria Police Department, his doctors, his friends and his family for their support.
"Without them I wouldn't be here, I have strong backing with the love they give me and help which makes everything so much easier," Zimbro said.
Del Rio was previously released from the hospital and the couple will continue to have rehabilitation.
"I stay positive through it all knowing that every day is another step up in getting better," Zimbro said.
In November, CBS 5 News spoke with Michelle Pesquera, Del Rio's godmother, who was holding a fundraiser for the couple.
"Tiara took some steps two days ago so she's starting to walk," Pesquera said. "Beau is getting better as well."

For the second time in three months, Cynthia Lansing learned Monday that another defendant implicated in the brutal murder of her son, Kaleb Yazzie, will evade prison.
Clutching the black fabric of a shirt bearing her dead son's name, Lansing leaned on her brother for support as the judge weighed these facts:
Ammon Karr, 21, had gotten into a fistfight with her 22-year-old son at a party in a Capitol Hill area home five months ago. But Ammon Karr did not know his brother, Adam Karr, would jump into the fracas — allegedly wielding a knife. After Yazzie was stabbed numerous times, Ammon Karr panicked, hid his bloodied clothes and lied to police about where he was that night.
And as Yazzie lay dying the night of July 31, Ammon Karr did not call for help or try to save his life.
For this, Lansing begged the court to send Karr to prison. Instead, he will spend 30 more days in jail.
"He helped take my son's life, and he should pay for what he's done," she said after Karr's sentencing hearing. "My family will never be the same."
Karr pleaded guilty in November to second-degree felony obstructing justice, and a count of third-degree felony aggravated assault was dismissed. On Monday, he was sentenced to 195 days in jail in lieu of a possible 15-year prison sentence.
Since he has been in custody since July, he has just 30 days left to serve.
After he is released, Karr will be placed under house arrest for 90 days, followed by 36 months of probation.
Deputy Salt Lake County District Attorney Paul Parker echoed the sentiments ofdefense attorney David Finlayson, who said Ammon Karr did not intend for anyone to die that night and has no prior violent offenses on his record.
This seemed to satisfy 3rd District Judge James Blanch. But it did little to ease the pain of a grieving mother.
"These boys will get out of here and they'll get to see each other again, they'll get to see their families again," Lansing said, tears streaming down her face. "When I want to see my son, I have to go to a grave."
This is the second time Lansing has left a courtroom believing justice had not been served.
Two months ago, a juvenile court judge sentenced a 17-year-old boy who police allege dragged Yazzie's bleeding body out of the yard and down the road to an alley, where he stomped on Yazzie's head.
The teen, whom The Salt Lake Tribune is not identifying due to his age, could remain in a juvenile facility until he turns 21 but may be paroled earlier depending on his behavior.
"Both of these boys will serve their time and be done with this," said Mark Hedgepeth, Yazzie's uncle. "This was a brutal, brutal murder. And they all deserve to have it follow them forever."
More than 10 members of Yazzie's family packed the courtroom gallery Monday.
They all plan to return March 4 when a two-day preliminary hearing begins for Adam Karr, 27, who is charged with murder and second-degree felony obstruction of justice for allegedly stabbing Yazzie several times in the chest with a small folding knife.
Lansing said she thinks about the Karr brothers almost daily. She cringes as she talks of the pain Yazzie must have felt in his last moments. She has wondered if the brothers feel remorse for what they did to her son.
Before Monday's hearing drew to a close, Ammon Karr asked for forgiveness.
He glanced back nervously at those assembled in the gallery. His voice quaked.
"I just want them to know that I am very sorry," he said through sobs. "I froze, and I was terrified. I didn't know what to do. I wish now that I could go back and provide some kind of help for Mr. Yazzie."
As part of Karr's probation, he must complete 200 hours of community service and attend anger-management and drug-therapy sessions.
The judge ordered the probation to be "zero tolerance," meaning any violation will result in Karr being sent to prison to start a one-to-15-year prison term.

Rules to Run By: Smart Eating Habits for Runners
Tips 1-3
If you're just kicking off a new running program, follow these five nutritional guidelines. They'll help you get the most out of your workout -- and your body.1. Go for Lean and Green
Introducing a running regimen makes it more crucial to feed your body the heart-healthy foods routinely touted by nutritionists. Melinda Manore, the chair of the department of nutrition at Oregon State University, recommends centering your diet around whole grains, fish, lean meats, fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy. These foods will meet your basic nutritional needs and will help your body recover after exercise.2. Timing Is Everything
When it comes to fueling up for a workout, the when is just as important as the what. If you hit the pavement in the morning, you might not have time to down a big breakfast and digest it, but Manore suggests that you still need something light before exercising -- such as a piece of toast with peanut butter and a glass of water. "Follow up your run with a healthy breakfast of fruit and whole grains," she advises.
For runners who favor midday or afternoon jogs, the optimal time to eat is two hours before exercising. That way, by the time you begin, your body will have absorbed the energy from your food. Also, munching too close to your run can cause cramps. If you must have something before you head out, a small banana will give you a boost. However, be careful about consuming too much fiber right before you run, because exercise can stimulate your digestive tract.3. Recovery Rules
It's common to lose your appetite after exercise, but new research shows that eating within 30 minutes of your run is essential for replenishing glycogen stores -- and helping your body recover. Soon after you finish your workout, eat a snack high in both protein and carbohydrates, such as a cup of yogurt with fruit, or an energy bar.

September 2004 Sky from the Keeble Observatory
Cassini has been orbiting Saturn for two months, and has already begun to return
impressive data on the ringed planet's many satellites. Phoebe, the most distant
of Saturn's "major" moons, was imaged while the probe was still inbound.
Long-range images of Titan have begun to penetrate its smoggy atmosphere. Two previously
unknown moons have been discovered, too small to be seen by earth-based telescopes.
Titan is the only satellite in the solar system with a substantial atmosphere. Two
Voyager probes in the 1980s managed no better than to confirm that the atmosphere
was dense and hazy ... nothing could be seen of the surface. The atmosphere is mostly
nitrogen, which is also true of Earth's atmosphere, but there's no free oxygen on
Titan. It is also extremely cold, fortunately so, since the moon is not massive
enough to hold a warm atmosphere. The haze in the atmosphere seems to be hydrocarbon
"smog" ... and radar reflected from the surface tells us that there may
be pools of liquid hydrocarbon on Titan. Think lakes of gasoline! Initial images
of Titan at wavelengths not absorbed by the smog have given a preliminary view of
the surface, which will be much improved when Cassini passes within a few thousand
miles of the surface in December. A separate probe, Huygens, will penetrate that
atmosphere and parachute to the surface. See for yourself at
The newly-discovered moons, as yet unnamed, are a mere 3 and 4 kilometers (2 and
2 ½ miles) in diameter, making them substantially smaller than any previously
identified satellites. The smallest previously known were about 20 kilometers in
diameter. The existence of these small satellites has been used to argue that there
are fewer small comets in the outer solar system than many had believed. The reasoning
is that over the 4.5 billion year age of the solar system, house-sized comets would
have blasted small satellites into rubble, which would have become part of the rings.
Since these moons are still there, perhaps there aren't as many small comets. Cassini
researchers will continue to look for evidence of more small moons, particularly
in the several gaps in the ring plane.
Lunar phases for September: Last Quarter on the 5th; New Moon on the 14th; First
Quarter on the 21st; Full Moon on the 28th.
Evening planet watching will continue to disappoint! Mars and Jupiter are essentially
lost in the Sun's glare, Uranus and Neptune can only be seen with a modest telescope.
Morning sky-watchers will have a better array of planets. Mercury, Venus, and Saturn
all grace the eastern sky at sunrise. Saturn rises about 3 hours before the Sun,
followed an hour later by Venus. These will both be very bright ... Venus will probably
be the brightest object in that direction. Mercury lies below Venus, and should
also be bright. Look for all three to gain height above the horizon as the month
goes on.
Two hours after sunset finds Cygnus, the Swan, directly overhead. Its brightest
star, Deneb, is just to the north of zenith. Cygnus marks the northeast to southwest
plane of our Milky Way Galaxy, and also lies in the direction towards which our
entire solar system is moving as we orbit the distant galactic center.
To the west of zenith lies Vega, in Lyra. Binoculars should enable you, on a clear
moonless night, to pick out the faint Ring Nebula, also in Lyra. Also, seeing doesn't
have to be perfect for binoculars or a small telescope to resolve the "double-double"
- the modestly bright star next to Vega - as a pair of close binaries. Hercules,
lies about 30 further degrees to the west. You should still be able to see the globular
cluster M13 in Hercules - it will look like a faint dandelion puff, composed of
perhaps a million stars.
From zenith towards the east, your line of sight moves out of the plane of the galaxy.
The largely open sky is marked with the large but rather faint "great square"
of Pegasus. Low to the northeast you'll see the familiar, irregular W shape of Cassiopeia.
To the right, at about the same angle from the horizon, you should be able to see
the faint "smudge" of the Andromeda galaxy, even without a telescope.
It's best seen in a clear, moonless sky. Light from that galaxy has taken about
2 million years to reach your eyes, making it the most distant "naked eye"
object observable.

The main purpose of this web site is to make available to interested persons the audio recordings and lyric transcriptions of the 1,594 songs included in the Max Hunter Collection. The Collection itself contains a great deal of other materials that may be of interest to researchers and collectors. At this time, it is not possible to include all of these other materials on the site. It is hoped that these will be included at some time in the future. These other materials include fiddle tunes, jokes, stories, and what Max Hunter called "visits", or interviews with the people he was recording.
As you look over the materials available on this site, you might notice many instances of incorrect spelling and punctuation in the lyric transcriptions. There are also errors in the transcriptions themselves. My first duty is to reproduce the materials in the Collection as they are currently found. It is not always possible, or even desirable, to determine which of these inconsistencies are mistakes and which may be a part of the local culture of the Ozarks. At some point in the future, these errors and inconsistencies will be dealt with. However, it is my intention to always make available the original transcriptions made by Max Hunter and his family for reference.
The musical transcriptions of the tunes that were sung are being developed as we place the Collection materials online. Max Hunter did not make any tune transcriptions himself. When this process was first begun by those of us responsible for the web site, we were unsure whether or not the original audio recordings would be avaliable online. Therefore, every effort was made to notate exactly what was sung on the recordings. As technology has been developed to allow for easy distribution of the audio files, we are beginning to simplify the tune transcriptions. We hope that this will make these transcriptions more generally useful for a wider audience. For those wishing to hear the nuances and characteristics of Ozarks singing style, the original recordings are readily available.

Love it or hate it, no one can argue that RFK Stadium doesn't hold a special place in Major League Soccer and U.S. Soccer history.
As the League's only stadium that can boast that it's been used since MLS's infancy in 1996, no other site in MLS can boast that it has held World Cup matches for both men and women, 21 U.S. Men's National Team matches, three MLS Cup Finals, and one MLS All-Star Game. Built for football and baseball, RFK stadium has also hosted boxing, bowl games, and various concerts.
RFK Stadium also holds a special place in my heart, because it's where I got my start in MLS as an intern for D.C. United in the summer of 2011. Who knows, without my experience with D.C. United last summer, I might not be writing the article for the Crew right now.
But fear not, Crew fans. In the seven matches in which I worked for D.C. last summer, Ben Olsen's team went 0-4-3 at RFK Stadium. In addition, I traveled to Chicago to see the Black-and-Red draw the Fire 1-1 and drove to my now-home of Crew Stadium to see United's playoff hopes dashed by Eddie Gaven's diving header on October 2, 2011 to go on top of July 21's 1-0 victory. And while the Black & Gold hasn't been wildly successful at RFK-- winning only six times in MLS's 17 year history-- the Crew has taken nine points from its last five matches at the historic stadium in D.C.
Though it is great for MLS that D.C. United may soon get a new stadium in The District within the next few years, you have to appreciate the only stadium that was in use when the league started in 1996 still going strong today. (Even though you may run into cockroaches, raccons, and various other critters in the field-level tunnels.)
The Crew players were greeted with the oppressive Mid-Atlantic heat and humidity on the team walk today through the Dupont Circle area of Washington, D.C.. There was a chorus of resounding "It's so hot..." statements as the team walked to Mitchell Park for a morning stretch. As you can see from Julius James' back in the photo above, many of the players broke a sweat during the stroll. Chris Birchall came prepared however, using napkins to wipe the sweat off his back throughout the walk.
It won't be much cooler at the time of kickoff this evening. Weather.com predicts it will be 89 degrees Fahrenheit with 55-percent humidity, making it feel like 96 degrees. What's more, the concrete structure of RFK Stadium will trap in the heat for tonight's match to make it even more oppressive.
Tonight will be a test of endurance for the Black & Gold, so look for the Crew to come out firing from the opening whistle just as it did two weeks ago against D.C. in search of an early goal in this muggy D.C. weather.
I'll have more from RFK Stadium later as kickoff approaches.
Today would have been Lamar Hunt's 80th birthday. From all of Crew Soccer Nation, thank you Lamar for your passion and vision for soccer in America!
Following the Crew's 2-1 victory in Kansas City on Saturday, the Black & Gold has been racking up the weekly awards around various media outlets. Here's a guide to all the accolades the team has earned this week:
Jairo Arrieta was named Player of the Week for his multi-goal effort by MLSsoccer.com, ProSoccerTalk, and Soccer by Ives.
In addition, Arrieta earned Team of the Week honors for by the above outlets and Sports Illustrated. Unfortunately for the Crew, Andy Gruenebaum's five-save effort wasn't enough to edge him past Chicago's Sean Johnson, who was the unanimous selection for the goalkeeper in the above outlets' First XIs.
For the hard-earned road win, Robert Warzycha was honored as Coach of the Week by MLSsoccer.com. It's the second time the Crew skipper has earned that honor this season.
Finally, remember to vote for Jairo Arrieta for AT&T Goal of the Week and for Andy Gruenebaum for Save of the Week.
Greetings from Kansas City,
After going their separate ways for breakfast, the players and coaches gathered in the hotel lobby this morning to catch some Olympic action before embarking on the team walk through the city.
Following their Olympic viewing, the players enjoyed the sights of Kansas City on the team walk.
Eventually, the team found a nice shaded are to stretch and mentally prepare for tonight's match against Sporting KC. Eddie Gaven shared his veteran insight with rookies Ethan Finlay and Matt Lampson.
Finally, before heading back to the hotel to rest, these guys insisted on posing for a buddy pic:
The Crew Juniors U-19 advanced to the U.S. Youth Soccer National Championship game with 2-1 victory over Empire United SA Syracuse on Thursday morning behind goals from Mike Walker and Cole Denormandie. The 2012 National Championship game will be televised on Fox Soccer Channel at 8pm Saturday night live from Rock Hill, SC. Midfielder Wil Trapp will join the U-19s for the National Championship, fresh off a fourth-place finish with the United States U-20 Men's National Team at the Milk Cup in Northern Ireland.
Captained by Crew Soccer Academy product and Akron standout Wil Trapp, the United States U-20 Men's National Team beat Turkey 1-0 on Monday to advance to the third place match on Thursday against Chile. The U-20s rebounded from a 2-1 defeat to defending champion Denmark in their opening match on July 21.
The U-20 National Team's assistant coach Brian Bliss will return to Columbus following Thursday's match to resume his duties as Technical Director for the Crew. Soon after, Trapp will return to Akron to begin training for the 2012 season.

Share your instagrams / defaults matter
Posted on August 27th, 2012
I love the idea of i-am-cc.org, a tool to license your Instagram photos under a Creative Commons license. It's a simple way to share your photos, not as in over-share your personal live but as in allow others to build on (and with) your creative works. Defaults matter: Since most services don't allow for easy CC-licensing (Flickr being one of the few services that implemented that a long time ago), most photos uploaded aren't shared under licenses that allow for example bloggers to post a photo on their personal blogs to illustrate their articles. Like the wonderfully gross one you see above, courtesy of David R. Politi, who licensed it as Creative Commons by-nc via i-am-cc.org. More startups should think about the long play…

Matthew Weiner: And by the way, having been on the other side of it, I actually think that part of my success climbing the hierarchy of the writers' room was that I knew that when the boss came in, no matter what mood they were in, I was not going to take it personally. I'd be like, "Okay, okay, you don't like that? Well, I've got something else. Did you actually say 'Fuck you' to me? Okay. Well, you don't mean it."
David Milch: That's a gift. How did you develop that?
Matthew Weiner: That's the way my family is. You can't take it personally.

Guide to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of conditions from A to Z.
An ingrown hair is a hair that curls and penetrates the skin with its tip, causing inflammation. Ingrown hairs are more common among people with very curly hair. Most ingrown hairs occur in the beard area on men and the bikini or groin area on women.
The most common symptom of an ingrown hair is redness and inflammation of the skin, followed by pus formation. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. The symptoms of an ingrown hair may resemble other skin conditions. Always consult your doctor for a diagnosis.
Diagnosis of an ingrown hair can be confirmed with a medical history and a physical examination.
An ingrown hair often heals on its own. However, in the case of chronic ingrown hairs, treatment may include:
Allowing the hair to grow longer prior to shaving it
Removing the hair permanently through electrolysis, laser, or depilatory methods (liquids or creams)

Does formal education as a child hinder a child's creativity?
I am writing on a paper on Education Systems restricting child creativity. On one hand formal education has it s benefits as it trains the human eye to notice things, place things in order. But on the other hand it sets certain limitations to a child's imaginative mind and forces him/her to produce stereotypical imagery of what they call 'art'
What are your opinions?

Oct 19 2012: If training the student includes handing them a fact, only to be aroused by bell later will waste the brains ability. Our subconscious represents 99% of our brains activity and therein is the source of our creativity. I went through the standard schooling and yet I was born with a contrarian attitude towards my teachers which kept me going to the well of odd ideas just left of center or was it the right. In either case, it kept me seeking and peeking away from the straight-ahead. I believe the reason I have always been able to see things others miss is that I have practiced creativity my whole life by merely letting the subconscious leak out. I am very successful because not only can I do the perfect expected normal deed but I can usually improve on it since I am likely to have already thought about why the norm is weak. To the point of your query of how to instill creatively in a kid's life we must require them to find the truths by fishing through their subconscious for those strange and wonderful wrongs and rights that make up our truths.

According to a recent survey, a vast majority of us really don't like our jobs to the point we want entirely different careers.
The numbers are highest for the youngest workers, but still surprisingly high for people in their 40s.
Harris did a survey of 16,000 people for the University of Phoenix, and found 80 percent of 20-somethings want to switch careers, 64 percent of 30-somethings and 54 percent of 40-somethings. While the survey's motivation was to encourage unsatisfied workers to go back to school, the results may serve to accurately represent the rest of the population.
Their reasons for dissatisfaction vary from wage woes to no sense of future, or the job simply doesn't bring any joy.
FOX 9 trolled Minnesota communities for malcontent employees, and found some interesting results throughout the metro. Many of them seemed content because they didn't want to succumb to their true feelings on TV – however, some of them truly did enjoy their jobs.
Some said the company you work for, your co-workers and overall work environment all attribute to a happy, healthy occupation.
"We are lucky we have an awesome boss, and we work for a great company and we get to wear what we want and the hours are somewhat flexible as long as you get done what you need to get done," one employee said.
In Minneapolis, 30-somethings were more reluctant to reveal their feelings, except for Ben, who believes only 25 percent of his demographic is content.
"I am very happy. Yeah. It's just the unknown -- not knowing what could be next, what's going to be in the future," he said.
For many people, wrapping up an education and still finding a lackluster career can be very daunting.
At Lake Calhoun, Dan is in his mid-20s and things most people in his age group are unhappy with their jobs.
"I was unhappy with where I saw my career going. The amount I was giving in wasn't equal to the amount of personal enjoyment I was getting out," he said.
One other interesting number: Only 20 percent of small business owners like their career.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- The mass shooting in Colorado has sparked debate about whether there should be tougher gun laws. The issue is one that resonates in Kentuckiana just as much as around the country.
"Attempting to legislate and restrict ownership [of guns] is hopeless," says Charles Riggs, with the Kentucky Concealed Carry Coalition.
"Criminals are always going to be criminals," says one man from Valley Station who called himself 'Chuck.' "And people who are going to go out and kill people are going to find ways to do it."
"I'm a big advocate of self defense," say Stephen McBride, a gun enthusiast from Shelby County. "I think everyone should be prepared to defend themselves from criminals."
Many gun advocates who came to the Gun and Knife Show in Louisville over the weekend believe lighter gun laws could have prevented the shooting in Colorado from ending with 12 people dead and dozens more injured.
"If laws were less restrictive there might of been people who were armed in that theater that could of prevented or minimized the amount of damage that was done," says Chuck.
The right to bear arms is an American tradition as Tommy Jenkins from Breckenridge County explains.
"We have certain rights that were given to us handed down from generation to generation that started out with people in a country that was rough and ready," says Jenkins. "And we need to stay that same rough and ready mentality."
At the Louisville Gun and Knife Show, people can legally buy sell or trade guns as part of their constitutional right. But it's guns that were once legally bought that sometimes hit the streets and are used to commit illegal crimes that might include murder.
"I don't believe that West Louisville or any part of Louisville is going to have enough regulation to try and get illegal guns that are saturating the community off the streets in a meaningful way," says community liaison Christopher 2X.
Christopher 2X says there needs to be a change in the way people think, rather than a change in gun laws.
"I think the bottom line is about education," 2X says.

Dinner was cold, chicken under cooked, so we asked for the manager. She was kind and apologized offering donuts... Really! Do not bother
- SusieQVIPDined on 9/27/2014We had a great seat in the banquette by the stairs for 4 of us. There was a lot of activity going up and down the stairs so that was a bit of a distraction particularly when the trip back down the stairs was a bit more challenging for those that had too much to drink. The food was outstanding but sometimes the service was spotty. They just need ot work on having their servers come to the table more often to poor the wine, check on things et al.Special Features:
- What a find!KatieGVIPDined on 9/21/2014We came here for my daughter's birthday. We managed to get a table on the roof terrace which was so lovely. The service was excellent, and the food superb. The wine was excellent, too. Great atmosphere - buzzing and electric without being too loud. One of the best dining experiences we have had in a long time. We would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Napa.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Craving a BurgerWine24VIPDined on 9/13/2014Decided to try the burger at The Thomas as I didn't feel like cooking at home. Of course I was craving a burger and as I live in walking distance to Downtown Napa, The Thomas had a reservation available in case the bar was full. It took some time to get our table set as they were busy. We dined on the 2nd floor which was very uncomfortable due to the weather, it was very stuffy and humid. The chairs are very uncomfortable for the quality of the restaurant. First time I had sat on the level. Our server, Anna was a lot of fun. We both ordered burgers which we were told would take 20 minutes. The burgers took closer to 30-40 mins but were worth the wait. Overall, service & food was spot on. Disappointed with no air flow and my chair.Special Features:
- OndineVIPDined on 9/12/2014The food was great, however the portion of the heirloom tomato salad with burrata was much smaller & with less tomatoes and too much of the peaches than last time -Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Must Visit!!!BocaWineLoversDined on 9/11/2014Staff was extremely friendly and professional...drinks and food outstanding, and views of the River from the terrace, breathtaking. If you visit Napa Valley, you must make it a point to come and visit The Thomas.Special Features:
- Great roof top!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/11/2014Great food and drinks with a very nice view of Napa.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Rooftop DiningOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 9/7/2014Had a wonderful brunch and took a friend visiting from out of town. Made the last reservation of the day at 2:15 on a Sunday. Although being told that the kitchen would close at 2:30 (which I knew), the service didn't seem rushed or intrusive. The view is always pleasant from the rooftop and Jen and the staff are always accommodating. Another job well done.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pricy-kimmiekaeVIPDined on 8/30/2014Prepare yourself and book early if you want to sit outside.Special Features:
- Rooftop Terrace is AmazingLocalLVDinerVIPDined on 8/30/2014We were recommended to this restaurant by locals. We loved the quaint ambiance of the dining rooms (on 3 levels). The menu was interesting and showcased chartcuterie and cheeses to go with the excellent wine list. We couldn't help but think the overall space felt very "hipster" and that turned us off from the overall experience.Special Features:
- One of Our Worst EverTM82VIPDined on 8/23/2014Will go down as one of our worst-ever dining experiences. Went specifically to sit on the roof, called ahead and said we could be seated up there - no problem. 15 minutes later when we arrived, we were told that the roof was rented out for a party. Halibut was raw on the bottom but overcooked on the top (not even sure how that is possible given that it was poached), $34 bisque lacked main ingredient (lobster) and was an oil slick. Server was nowhere to be found throughout our entire meal. We asked for the Manager and he/she never came, asked again downstairs at the front door and waited for 15 minutes until we gave up. There is nothing that could get me to go back.
- Food and ServiceFoodstuffDined on 8/19/2014Service was spectacular from start to finish. Hostess was more than accommodating, bar staff was on top of it all and waiter was perfect. 3 of us dined. 2 of us had steak, me the rib eye and our guest had the "Butcher's Cut". We both ordered medium rare and while her "Butcher's Cut" was cooked perfectly my rib eye was well done. That was a small disappointment, but the seasoning was perfect. Our waiter offered to have a new steak fired and I insisted that it was OK. And actually, it was really good the next morning with my eggs. Leftovers are always better, right?Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great experience at The ThomasOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 8/16/2014First time at The Thomas was outstanding. The service was great, the food was terrific definitely "fit for foodies", & the upstairs bar scene was a happening place. Finally you can choose your noise level as first floor dining is quiet, 2nd floor at little bit more chatter and music, with the top floor energetic. Highly recommendedSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- good food but friendly serviceYalekVIPDined on 8/15/2014Have been visiting this restaurant three times. The food at The Thomas is hit and miss but we still had a great time with The Thomas. It is because their service is always attentive and friendly. They really have a great service team. In addition, the bartenders really know how to make killer cocktails.Special Features:
- Don't miss Fagiani'sMaiopusDined on 8/15/2014This is a Napa must-do. The rooftop dining is the quintessential Napa experience. The food, drinks and service is outstanding.Special Features:

- Delicious!MommyBDined on 8/8/2014We had the most delicious anniversary dinner here. The service staff was warm and friendly, and the food was absolutely incredible. My husband loved the rib eye, and the chilled corn soup I ordered was absolute perfection. Also, don't skip the brussel sprouts with caramelized peppers-- to die for! We also thoroughly enjoyed the donuts and dipping sauce for dessert. We highly recommend The Thomas!Special Features:

- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/1/2014We have only dined late night in the bar a few times, but this time we went for my moms birthday dinner. Overall the experience was good, but climate was hot and muggy and our food was so-so. It was a hot day out and it may be because they have the upstairs open, but it was very warm and humid on the second floor while we were there. My boyfriends pork was way over cooked which they happily re-fired, but it being so hot in there we were just ready to eat and leave. They did send out a little something for him to nibble on so that the rest of us didn't have to wait to eat. I had the halibut and I should have got the burger. Our favorite part of dinner was the tomato, burrata and peach salad we shared as an appetizer!Special Features:
- Good food and serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 7/28/2014Visited last week with my husband. Food was really good, the server was a bit overwhelmed as the table next to us was rude but they seemed to manage them well. Tables a bit close together upstairs but it fills up first as everyone wants the view, would have preferred more space but what are you gonna do?Special Features:
- Great view; good food.OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 7/28/2014Food was good, but not exceptional. Fun to sit on the roof but the corner where we sat was a little breezy. Great view of downtown. Our order was messed up and we had to ask for it to be re fired. Manager was good about sending over additional plate while we waited, which we appreciated.Special Features:
- DavidnMe21Dined on 7/27/2014This was my husband's birthday brunch surprise. Cocktails seemed watered down and the bloody mary my husband had had a different odd taste & should have more substance to the tomatoe juice. My French Toast was great but my husbands scrambled eggs on sourdough were dry and plain. You also do not have enough brunch choices.Special Features:
- rooftop is a gem of a viewkimmiekaeVIPDined on 7/26/2014Wow; the roof top bar and dining are a glorious view and aura. 1st and 2nd floor are great looking also. Our roof top table I believe was taken by a patron as the supervision is difficult with a 3 floor restaurant. People wander upstairs to the roof top bar and sometimes try to sit in the dining tables thathave bben reserved. Restaurant apologized, we were seated within 10 more minutes, given a complimentary drink, and made it more than right. Yummy Barrata and Tomato salad. Great experience but alittle pricey. Thank you.Special Features:
- Birthday SpecialdaklubDined on 7/23/2014Came to The Thomas on a whim for a birthday dinner...... it was great the food ( cheesburger with egg and bacon ) was so great my son loved it. My halibut was excellant, please dont take this to much as critisim, but cooked perhaps 15 seconds too long, but it was was so great. Excellent drinks, I had a Bourbon / with sprakling wine,,,,, a real treat. the Coffee was great, The waiter was top notch. Love the roof top dining. Love the casualness of the environment...... very special....... thanks Kevin RadleySpecial Features:

- Loud and crowdedTheRicksterVIPDined on 7/19/2014Music was loud on the rooftop and inside, which gave us both headaches so we left. Much better scene during the week I have found. Too many tourists during the summer.
- WendyNapkin54Dined on 7/19/2014Very nice, especially dining on the roof! We have been here several times and have always marveled at the unique menu.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- mehNapakinDined on 7/19/2014I made a reservation and when we arrived they said they'd just seated a party of 20 and could we wait 10 minutes. We were given the option of sitting in the sun or at the bar. Why have reservations if there aren't tables available? The salmon eggs Benedict was adequate. The salmon piece was thick and salty but the eggs were poached well. Merely ok for a Napa brunch.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 7/13/2014While the view was lovely, the experience overall was disappointing. We were seated in the hot sun with no shade on the terrace. Service was slow and the brunch menu was very limited. The food was good, the drinks below par. We wouldn't return and wouldn't recommend it to others.
- About the WinenapabobDined on 7/12/2014On a warm evening the upstairs terrace is a nice dinning experience. Overall the food is well prepared and the taste is as expected. The choice of "overly loud" music needs to be toned down and less hard rock. Biggest note regards the handling of brought in Wine. Never been to a restaurant where they offer to open the wine and then remove it from your table. Probably would be OK but gone for fifteen minutes and only returned after a request. Was planning on consuming part as a before dinner drink. Never saw the cork. So what if it was a $100 or more bottle of wine, not that the value is critical, but why take it from the table at all. Should have been opened at the table where there is no suspect as to the contents!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mrs. Shawna Virga1PickyLadyDined on 7/11/2014Your restaurant was recommended by a friend (another restaurant owner) that thought it would be the perfect place for our special occassion. He was absolutley correct. This was a pleasant surprise and a now "Must" destination for us to revisit and recommend. We were looking for that perfect place that was classy but not snobish. The entres ware gourmet and perfect portion size. The beverages were original but not crazy-random ingredients. We were a party of 5 that was greeted and treated special from the minute we walked through your door. Thank you for the roof-top view, wonderful staff and amazing food....we will be back and I cant wait to brag about your job well done.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- What an experience!!FoodisLoveFoodisLifeDined on 7/10/2014The Thomas at Fagiani's exceeded my expectations for the night. My date and I were seated on the rooftop and were blessed with an amazing view. The menu was very diverse and everything looked delicious. The only downside was that I could not order everything on the menu. After experiencing delicious appetizers, like the bone marrow, crudités and babaganoosh, and the oysters, I ordered the burger with a fried egg and my girlfriend had the lobster bisque. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, while she claimed it was good but not worth how much we paid for it. The dessert was simply fantastic. The doughnut holes were to die for, and the brownie sundae was perfection. Overall, it was an amazing experience and I cannot wait to return!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, OK experienceBluesphereDined on 7/8/2014These guys know how to cook. Everything was good, most likely even the stuff they forgot to bring. Two things really detracted from the experience. The service was either slow or uninterested (couldn't tell), forgetful (or forget you), and kind of irritating. 30 other restaurants in Napa also have untrained waiters, so you kind of expect it, but this was more noticeable than usual. We were out on the deck up top, which is nice, but the rock soundtrack grinding through the speakers neither went with the food nor the visual atmosphere. I see Open Table considers LOUD to be energetic. The music was sort of frenetic. Maybe it sells more drinks.
- Great LocationNapaFoodieVIPDined on 7/8/2014If you are going to The Thomas for the food, consider choosing elsewhere downtown. The food was good, but not great and the service was very slow. However, the building is quite memorable and the rooftop dining is worth the visit.Special Features:

- Great serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/4/2014Our dinner reservation was for July 4th at 8:30 I requested a 3rd table so we had a view of the river for the fireworks. I thought the 3rd floor was restricted to only reserved tables for dinner. I was not aware there was a bar that was open to anyone and as the night went on was getting very crowded. The hostess must have realized this was going to be a problem an seated us on the 2nd floor with a good view through the windows of the fireworks. It was a wonderful dinner I would highly recommend it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Terrible service, worse foodjoyahVIPDined on 6/30/2014Service was terrible. Did not offer drinks. We had to ask for wine and when first bottle was empty they did not ask if we wanted more. A couple of people didn't even get water until asked for a second time. Had to ask three times to get a soda. They didn't ask if we had any questions on the menu. We asked if they hay any specials and the answer was a short "No". It took over an hour to get our food and when we got it everything was overcooked. Salmon and fillet mignon were burned to a crisp. They took stake back and half hour later had still not brought a replacement. So my hubby ended up eating cold left overs from other dinners at our table. Appetizer plates were never cleared, water was not refilled. Truly awful experience.

Embracing a Childhood Favorite:
Horses in Decor
The last time I considered horses as décor I was about six and completely obsessed with My Little Pony. Lately, as I've been spotting the motif around the web, I've had to reconsider my childhood favorite. These interiors integrate the creatures in their most elegant form. From stunning black and white images to sculptural forms, these horses are perfectly at home in a grown-up space.

I love horses! When I was a child, my mother bought me a Breyer horse every time we went to visit my grandmother in Alabama. She played with them when she was little too, so it was fun for us to collect them together. This post has inspired me to find a cool way to display them in my home instead of keeping them in storage. Maybe on a shelf above a wide doorway?
Sahra - you mean like this: http://gallery.apartmenttherapy.com/photo/jaime-and-matts-house-tour/item/356761 ?
NEXT: Embracing a Childhood Favorite: Unicorns in Decor.
Timely post for me. I've been trying to think of a good way to incorporate a few of my old show ribbons into our decor, and I've just hauled a big box of my Breyer horses up from my childhood home. My kids are too little to play with them yet, but I was thinking I could take one or two of the more "well-loved" ones, spray them a glossy white (or other color), and put them on my mantel. I've also been looking for good, clean/graphic, large scale horse art or photographs for the walls. I've seen a few examples on AT, but usually without the source attached, as with the leopard appy print above, or this one here, which I love: http://www.houzz.com/photos/322593/Ft--Worth-Historical-Residence-traditional-dining-room-dallas . So much that I see seems to be either of the western variety, which doesn't interest me as much, or of horses that aren't the most attractive (probably photos taken by a non-horseperson), or almost cheesy calandar-esque photos that are a little too "pretty" if you know what I mean (arabians with tails flying on the beach, or at sunset, or whatnot).
Does anyone know where I can find that first spotted horse print/photograph from design sponge?
@CHRISTINACOLE -- Contact the owner; he's probably the one who took it (my guess, anyway). He's a photographer based in Atlanta, and has a website.
I found a great horse print on the internet, but cannot find the artist (won't print and hang w/o artist permission/fee). Still living with a big blank wall.
This horsey girl never grew out of the phase... although I don't have any horses on display in my tiny home. As much as I love the animal, my wall space/ display space is used for family photos and pictures of places we love. www.smallishblog.com
Shannannigans -
I knew I had seen them somewhere! Oops!
This must be an emerging trend-- I recently did a post on this from a feature that we were in in Living, etc Magazine!
So BRADY BUNCH!
As a Fine Art Equine Photographer....this is a trend that I can totally embrace! http://julietrharrison.fineartstudioonline.com/ In my own home I am surrounded by the work of my fellow equine artists as well.
The unicorns don't like you either, Ashly.
Wow, Juliet Harrison...your photographs are gorgeous. Would work perfectly in my modern home. Contacting you now...

Barnaby, the owner was awesome. Easy to talk to and very helpful. The staff were also fantastic. Tom and One were great company and made sure we had everything we needed. The bugs were not as bad as I thought they would be given how close to the river it is, but bring bug spray just in case. I would highly recommend this place and would definitely come back. It felt like home and paradise at the same time. Very mellow and relaxing.

Given the weight, length, scope, and moral purpose of some of the movies currently begging you to watch them — the abolition of slavery in "Lincoln," the triumph over addiction in "Flight," the unstoppable ATM-ness of the 007 franchise in "Skyfall" — it's possible to forget the pleasure to be had in relative lightness. Hollywood has gotten away from the serious comedies that once were among its specialties. Those have been farmed out to television, where subtlety, social commentary, and eccentricity mock the obviousness and idiocy of the movie comedy at the moment. Yet no matter how grim it's looking for certain kinds of laughter, as long as there's David O. Russell, things will be OK.
We're so infrequently given the small, the intimate, the deathless, the funny that when we get a movie from Russell — "The Fighter" was his previous one — our involuntary response is to love it desperately, apocalyptically, like it's the last serious comedy on Earth. His new film is "Silver Linings Playbook," and it's at least the last and best such movie of the year.

|A What!? (Breakfast Version)
|Breakfast #4
|This rapid action hand-off game lets kids create and repeat fun dialogues about breakfast.
|Students will recognize a variety of less common fruits they can eat for breakfast.
|About five tennis balls, beanbags, or Koosh Balls, or pictures of fruits or the fruits themselves (see below for which fruits)
- Ask the students to form two even lines facing each other at opposite ends of the room with their backs against opposite walls.
- Tell them it is a good idea to have fruit with their breakfast meals because fruit helps us fight off colds, gives us energy, keeps our hair shiny, our skin soft, and our teeth and bones strong.
- Each type of fruit has different amounts and types of nutrients in it, so it is important to eat a variety of them (vitamin C in oranges helps us fight colds, potassium in bananas helps prevent muscle cramps, etc). They should eat about 1.5 servings every day (see below for specific amounts).
- Explain that you are going to introduce them to some less common fruits while you play "A What?"
- Choose a student to be the Leader. Give her or him a ball, beanbag, picture, or fruit and tell her or him it is a "papaya." Tell them the person directly across from them is the Receiver. The Leader should run across the room to the Receiver and say, "This is a papaya."
- The Receiver should say, "A what?" and the Leader should repeat, "A papaya." The Receiver should then say, "Oh! A papaya!" as they take it. Then, the Receiver should run across the room to the next person in line (at a slight diagonal from them).
- The Receiver is now the Leader and should speak the Leader's lines to the new Receiver.
- Once the "papaya" has been passed along a few times, hand the original Leader a second ball, picture, or fruit and ask them to pass a new fruit ("This is a cranberry") so there are two balls in rotation at once.
- Add as many balls or fruits as the group can realistically handle (up to five). (See below for fruit ideas.)
Background Information
Fruit provides bodies with nutrients they need to stay healthy and strong. Fruits are an important source of fiber, complex carbohydrates, and other food components that can help reduce a person's risk for chronic diseases such as heart disease and cancer. They also provide vitamins (such as A and C), minerals, are low in calories, fat, and sodium, and contain no cholesterol.
100% juice is one way to get fruit servings, but whole fruit is an even better choice. In general, 6th graders should eat 1 ½ servings of fruit per day and vary their fruit choices as fruits differ in nutrient content. One serving of fruit is about:
- one medium piece of fruit (apple, pear)
- six strawberries
- two plums
- fifteen grapes
- a half cup of 100% juice

Nutrient bioextraction (also called bioharvesting) is the practice of farming and harvesting shellfish and seaweed for the purpose of removing nitrogen and other nutrients from natural water bodies.
Eutrophication has been identified by scientists as one of the most serious threats to coastal environments around the world. Reducing nutrient inputs is a top priority for many estuary programs in the United States, including Chesapeake Bay, Long Island Sound, and Great Bay. By reducing nutrients in coastal waters, states and federal agencies hope to reduce widespread and recurring problems with algal blooms, loss of seagrass, and hypoxia.
Since the 1990s, the Long Island Sound Study partners have invested hundreds of millions of dollars to reduce the amount of nitrogen discharged into the Sound and its watershed by upgrading wastewater treatment plants. National treatment standards do not require the breakdown and removal of nitrogen from sewage effluent. Other sources of nitrogen, such as fertilizer and pet waste, have also been targeted by communities around the Sound.
Efforts to control nutrient sources have reduced the amount of nitrogen entering the Sound each year. However, changes in the Sound and its watershed, such as wetland loss and decreased populations of filter feeders, have diminished the capacity of the system to naturally process and treat nutrients.
Nutrient bioextraction can complement source control programs, as do programs for wetland and riparian buffer restoration. Bioextraction can increase the assimilative capacity of aquatic ecosystems, making them more resilient to nutrient loading, and is the only method available that removes nitrogen after it has entered the Sound.
In 2009, the Long Island Sound Study held a workshop to learn more about topics related to nutrient bioextraction from experts around the world and to discuss opportunities for nutrient bioextraction in Long Island Sound.
Two pilot programs were recently completed off of Hunts Point in the South Bronx, NYC to test the effectiveness of ribbed mussels and seaweed in removing nitrogen from the local environment. See these links for more details: mussels, seaweed
Preliminary model runs indicate that implementing nutrient bioextraction on a large scale could reduce hypoxia in Long Island Sound. (Download modeling report here)
Further evaluation of bioextraction is needed as part of a systems approach that integrates watershed load reduction programs with enhanced nutrient processing to attain water quality standards, restore designated uses, and restore ecosystem services. EPA's Regional Ecological Services Program is supporting a two-year study in collaboration with the NOAA Center for Coastal Monitoring and Assessment and National Marine Fisheries Service Milford Laboratory to further evaluate the role of bioextraction in the nutrient budget within Long Island Sound and Great Bay, NH using farm scale and system scale modeling to evaluate relevant direct (e.g. recreational) and indirect (e.g. water quality) ecosystem services and products (e.g. shellfish product for consumption) related to shellfish aquaculture. Preliminary results suggest that this bioextraction complements traditional nutrient reduction measures. It is anticipated that the success of this pilot study will be helpful for nutrient management in places other than Long Island Sound and Great Bay, NH.
