No Tanks
1973—Columns of Russian-made tanks driven by Syrian soldiers attack Israel, bringing on what is said to be the largest tank battle ever fought. The scene was the Golan Heights, northeast Israel.
1983—The Golan Heights Winery is established, after most of the ruined tanks have been dragged away to make way for vines.
"The First Wine Was a Disaster"
In its first year, the Golan Heights Winery made three wines...that were terrible. The budding coop knew the cool heights were producing the best wine grapes in the nation, but they had no comparable winemaking equipment. It took a few years to solve that problem, but they did it with a bang. For example, a Golan Heights '90 Chardonnay won a Gold medal at the Wine Expo competition in Bordeaux.
Today's Wine
Gamla Chardonnay by the Golan Heights Winery, Galilee, Israel
The Name Gamla—Gamla was an ancient Jewish settlement that valiantly held off the Roman invaders for two years. It is one of three Golan labels; appropriately, it adorns their lowest-cost "fighting" varietal bottles.
The Climate—A year before those tanks rumbled toward Israel, Professor Cornelius Ough visited the Golan Heights. He tasted the sourish apples, noted the volcanic soil, and the lower temperatures at the higher elevation. He announced that this should be wine country. His opinion carried a lot of weight for his employer was none other than the University of California—Davis!
The Delay—With the combat, planting did not start until four years later. About 250 shattered vehicles had to be removed from the area.
Rating—I recall a Frank Prial N.Y. Times column giving a Gamla Chardonnay good marks. My panel gave it a solid RECOMMENDED. The only whites to top it were two $30 Chards. The Gamla costs only $14! (You should try at least one bottle as a learning experience; after all, Chardonnay originated in the Middle East, not France.)
Contact—For outlets, call Megan Greene, (415) 346-2929, FAX (415) 346-6136.
And, since I mentioned my panel...
Postscript—Happy Anniversary, Panel
Exactly seven years ago this week my tasting panel in San Francisco met for the first time. Five thousand wines later they are still going strong. I got to wondering which California Chardonnay have they ranked the highest? Which Merlot? So, I dug back through all the results, and here are the best in each of twenty-one categories of California wines.

A 9-month-old Pakistani boy has now been charged and booked on attempted murder charges. His family members allegedly threw bricks at police trying to collect an unpaid gas bill in February.
Police officials say the little boy's father, a teenage son and others in the residence severely injured some of the officials by tossing bricks.
The toddler appeared in court, was fingerprinted by police and officially charged with attempted murder.
The family's lawyer, Irfan Tarar, said "The police filed a wrong, false arrest charge sheet and brought this innocent 9-month-old into this court room for an appearance."
A Pakistani official was suspended for registering the case against the baby boy but charges were still filed.
The toddler is out on bail and is scheduled back in court April 12 for a hearing on April 12.

3 tech stocks with staying power
While some big-name players in IT and gadgets have underperformed in recent months, not all of them are in trouble.
By Jeff Reeves
Tech stocks have had their issues lately, no doubt about it.
The 900-pound gorilla of gadgets, Apple (AAPL), has declined 35% from its October peak. Once-dominant PC maker Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) has plummeted 40% in the past 12 months. And just last week, poor earnings caused a massive 20% selloff in just a few days at cloud computing and IT giant VMware (VMW).
As a result, the tech sector has lagged significantly in recent months. While the S&P 500 is up about 7% since the beginning of November, tech-focused ETFs like the iShares Dow Jones US Technology ETF (IYW) and the Vanguard Information Technology ETF (VGT) are up roughly 3% in the same period.
These are sober signs for many tech investors. But while there are big-picture issues reshaping the tech sector -- the post-PC evolution of technology, lackluster demand driven by an enterprise upgrade cycle that remains weak, and so on -- a number of individual tech stocks still are performing remarkably well.
That's because they have compelling products, sustainable growth plans or rock-solid stability that make them attractive to investors.
Here are my three favorite tech stocks with staying power:
Despite the overtures about a PC decline, Intel (INTC) isn't going anywhere and remains a great pick in my mind. So great that I own the stock, with a cost basis of $21. I think this remains a good entry point for any long-term investors. Here's why:
- Intel is the largest semiconductor manufacturer on the planet, and its 15.9% market share in 2011 was bigger than No. 2 Samsung (SSNLF) and No. 3 Texas Instruments (TXN) combined.
- Intel has a yield north of 4.2% with a sustainable dividend payout of 46% of fiscal 2013 earnings and a projected 41% of fiscal 2014 earnings.
- Intel hasn't yet figured out mobile, but Apple is rumored to be considering Intel to make chips for its iPads (see phonearena.com) and is about to showcase a new line of chips for Google (GOOG) Android-powered devices in a few weeks, according to Techcrunch.
- Based on a share price of $21 and FY2014 earnings of $2.17, you could get a rock-bottom P/E of 9.1 when you buy.
Sure, PC troubles remain a drag and INTC stock is off 20% in roughly a year. But Intel is more efficient and has stabilized. The big risk is that Intel just committed a $13 billion capex plan to expand capacity, which some say should lead to oversupply, but I think is the right move in anticipation of stronger business and consumer demand in the next few years as it gets more into mobile and as enterprise spending bounces back.
Many of those who have punched out of Apple stock amid the recent malaise have found some comfort in mobile giant and AAPL partner Qualcomm (QCOM).
This is a wise trade because it not only allows you to share in a bit of Apple's success since QCOM is a supplier for iPhones and iPad chips, but also because it allows you to get involved with mobile beyond Apple's brand. In addition to key Apple contracts for the iPhone 5, Qualcomm's innovative new Snapdragon chips are a crucial component in a host of Android OS phones and tablets. It's even in the new BlackBerry (BBRY) line of devices, including the Z10.
The positioning as a dominant mobile player is only the beginning, too.
- QCOM has a bulletproof balance sheet with over $12 billion in cash as of its last earnings report, $6 billion in operating cash flow and zero debt.
- Qualcomm stock also is reasonably valued with a P/E of about 14 on FY2014 earnings.
- It has a five-year growth rate well north of 20%, with earnings set to jump 28% from FY2012 through the current FY2013 -- with double-digit growth projected again in FY2014.
- Even the technicals look good (see InvestorPlace)!
As Paul R. La Monica wrote on InvestorPlace when he picked Qualcomm as the best stock to buy and hold for all of 2013, "Qualcomm looks like it is poised to benefit from the one thing that is certain in 2013: People are going to buy more smartphones and tablets. So why make bets on who's going to steal more market share when you can own a profitable, growing, dividend-paying component maker with ties to nearly all of the major hardware players?"
IBM (IBM) has doubled from its bear market lows, but lately, Big Blue has been pretty sleepy. The stock is up about 5% in the last 12 months to return less than half of the S&P 500, and it now pays a meager yield of less than 1.7% after this run-up.
Still, there are signs of long-term potential at this tech stock -- particularly given its strong performance this earnings season.
IBM has a five-year growth rate in double digits, and while revenue is set to grow only a few percentage points in fiscal 2013, earnings should be up over 16%, according to forecasts.
What's more, IBM is showing that it is capable of beating these forecasts handily. Shares popped 5% a few weeks ago after both profits and sales topped expectations for its fourth-quarter earnings.
Its software and services business remain strong cyclical plays for a recovery in business spending, but its footprint in other areas including cloud computing, Big Data and healthcare services allow it to find stability and growth even if businesses aren't willing to spend big on servers and the like.
IBM stock has a P/E just north of 12 based on FY2013 numbers, and closer to 11 based on FY2014 earnings forecasts.
When you couple the reach and power of existing IBM businesses along with its big potential in growing segments of the market thanks to the supercomputer Watson and other innovations, there's good reason to like the long-term prospects of this tech giant.
Furthermore, the dividend has increased 70% since the recession but remains less than 20% of earnings. So while payouts aren't great now, the strong cash flow and growth prospects indicate that continued dividend increases are in the cards over the next few years.

"I don't breathe fire. I love my mom," said Kevin Davis, breaking the ice as he introduced himself to a group of Anne Arundel officers in Pasadena.
It was the Eastern District's 3 p.m. roll call Thursday, one of many rounds he's been making in his new role since he left his job as assistant police chief in Prince George's County to take over the troubled Anne Arundel department barely a week ago.
His priorities include getting out to listen to what Anne Arundel County police officers and district commanders have to say, getting the lay of the land from his staff and evaluating everything from the people to the facilities where they work. There will also be meetings with county neighborhood groups and organizations.
It's all in an effort to rebuild trust, he said.
"There's a cloud over the government and a cloud over you, all that you did not cause. And that overshadows your good work," he told the officers.
Minutes earlier, speaking with the district's commander, Frank Tewey, Davis acknowledged that he'd gotten lost the previous day in the department's headquarters in Millersvllle. The good part was that he landed amid evidence technicians, where he learned that they love their schedule, which keeps them on shifts with the officers and dispatchers they regularly deal with. "I'm learning too," he said.
Davis' priorities include improving the atmosphere in a department in which frustrated workers have taken to venting allegations in anonymous letters to politicians and news media. He said he wants to stress community policing strategies, improve community relations and make sure public safety issues are professionally addressed.
The department is also struggling with aging facilities, including a police academy in need of replacement, and old police cars that require constant repair.
Davis said officers and resources — the department is authorized for 679 officers and 240 civilian employees, though some positions are vacant — must be used to make a difference. The focus should not be on the number of traffic tickets, he said, but rather are tickets being written in areas where there are a lot of crashes?
"Quality trumps quantity every day of the week," he said. "I'm not a crime accountant."
County Executive Laura Neuman called Davis the "perfect candidate," someone who can tackle the job of restoring "faith and integrity to the department."
Davis said how people feel about safety and their police department is crucial: Working with residents routinely helps police "put some goodwill in the bank" when crises arise. A key way of building relationships will be getting officers out to meet residents more often, and he said police should include other county agencies in dealing with neighborhood issues.
Davis' interest in working with residents was spurred when he was a district commander in Prince George's from 2005 to 2009. One success in building community relations, he said, was devising a "graffiti wagon" and going out on weekends with residents to clean up graffiti in his district.
He said he sees Anne Arundel's four district commanders as chiefs of their districts, deciding what works best for their neighborhoods in a diverse county of about 540,000 residents.
Anne Arundel's department has had a tumultuous few years. An investigation of County Executive John R. Leopold culminated in his conviction five months ago for offenses that included misusing his executive protection officers for personal and political tasks.
Davis is the fourth police chief within 12 months for a force that became embroiled in the scandal that led to Leopold's conviction and resignation. James Teare Sr. retired last summer before Leopold's trial, ending a state investigation into his role in the misconduct case involving his boss. Teare was not charged with any offense. His replacement, Larry W. Tolliver, a former state police superintendent, left after 10 months, admitting that he used an anti-gay slur and saying that constant questioning of his leadership was taking a toll. Deputy Police Chief Pamela Davis — no relation — has been serving as acting chief since late May, while Neuman appointed an outside task force to evaluate the department.
The tumult aside, the new chief said he jumped at the opportunity to lead his hometown police force after 21 years in Prince George's County, where he had worked his way up from beat cop to assistant chief.
Davis has lived in Crofton since 1995 and said he knows many Anne Arundel officers from working in an adjacent county. He coaches youth football in Crofton. His children swim with County Councilman Jamie Benoit's kids, and he went to DeMatha High School in the 1980s with O'Brien Atkinson, president of the union that represents rank-and-file police officers.
Davis "dealt with scandals of his own in Prince George's County," Benoit said, adding that he is "very, very comfortable with both his experience and his character" and thinks he can right the Anne Arundel department.

The growth of green e-commerce is one something expects will happen as eco-friendly lifestyles become more the norm. A new Web site just launched is hoping to cash in on this potential revenue stream while also offering consumers information about living environmentally responsible. The site is called BuyGreen.com and it's the product of Green Retail and Wholesale, a company in sales and distribution of eco-focused products.
The idea behind BuyGreen.com seems to be offering a wide variety of green products for sale for both consumers and also small businesses. Each product has reportedly been evaluated by select "Green Standards" and offers shoppers information so they understand "how green a product is with respect to four areas of we choice levitra 50 mg tablets the company's basic lifecycle standard which include: source material, manufacturing, usage, and disposal."
Also offered are tips on green living. One tip in particular, shopping online, tries to offer some compelling reasons for heading to viagra for her the virtual mall instead of the real thing. In particular BuyGreen.com says "e-commerce warehouses use 1/16th of the energy of that used to operate a traditional retail store" and also that "even overnight air shipping uses 40% less fuel than the viagra price germany average car trip to the mall." An interesting argument indeed if it holds true. Your thoughts?

DUI emphasis patrol underway
Kitsap law enforcement officers will be looking for drunken drivers through the Fourth of July as part of an emphasis patrol, according to a statement.
The emphasis started June 24, as part of a $24,000-a-year grant to pay for officer overtime, said Marsha Masters, traffic safety coordinator at the Kitsap County Sheriff's Office.
Previous emphasis patrols have netted up to 11 drunken drivers, said Masters.
"They're out there, it's just a matter of being able to catch them," she said.

|Patient Information
Key Patient Benefits of TomoTherapy
TomoTherapy offers many key benefits to cancer patients including:
- Fewer side effects because less healthy tissue is impacted, resulting in faster recovery times that enable patients to return to their daily activities sooner
- Integrated CTrueTM technology that allows CT scans of the treated area to be taken at the time of treatment, providing the most up-to-date information regarding the shape, size and location of the tumor, allowing for the most accurate treatment
- Ability to be used simultaneously with other treatment options such as chemotherapy, genetic therapy, surgery and physician-guided robotic surgery with the da Vinci Surgical System
- Shorter, more accurate treatments
- No pain or discomfort
What can I expect during my Treatment Session?
Behind the scenes
Before beginning a TomoTherapy treatment, your doctor creates a treatment plan specifically for you using 3D images from a combination of scanning technologies and special software to establish the precise contours for each tumor and surrounding sensitive organs or tissues. Your doctor then decides how much radiation the tumor should receive, as well as acceptable levels for healthy tissue nearby. The TomoTherapy Hi-Art Treatment System calculates the appropriate pattern, position and intensity of the radiation beams to be delivered, based on your doctor's prescribed dose.
The day of treatment
After checking in for a daily treatment, you will be taken to the TomoTherapy treatment room where a radiation therapist will help them onto the TomoTherapy Hi-Art Treatment System's couch. You will most likely lie on your back, and the therapist may fit you with a special device to help you hold still during treatment. First, the couch will move you through the machine once for daily CTrueTM imaging. Based on these images, your therapist and doctor may fine-tune your position with small couch adjustments. Then the couch will move you through the machine once again, this time more slowly, as the TomoTherapy Hi-Art Treatment System delivers your daily treatment.
What you can expect
A typical course of radiation therapy involves a daily process, Monday through Friday. The number of treatments varies by case. On the average, the full daily TomoTherapy procedure takes approximately 15 minutes from when you enter the treatment room until you leave. This includes about five minutes for the daily CT to be performed and another five minutes for treatment to be delivered ("beam-on time"). The remaining time is used for set-up and image registration to ensure proper positioning. TomoTherapy treatments are completely painless. The experience is similar to having a CT scan or an X-ray taken. You may hear a clicking noise and the hum of the machine, both of which are normal sounds that the machine makes.

- EnjoyableFood4funDined on 9/19/2014We had an enjoyable time at Stones. The atmosphere was great. The food was very good. The service was ok. It was a little slow at first but then was good after we got our order taken.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A gem in AshlandPilotJeffDined on 9/13/2014This is what Ashland needs more of, cozy restaurant/bar environments that serve great food. Sure, you can get the average pub fare here but it is all done in a much higher quality fashion than you are used to getting from the typical soggy nacho place. This is our go to in town and reservations are a must on the weekends. I am not sure if I missed it, but a suggestion might be to have a daily special but honestly the menu has so many gems on it that it may not be needed.Special Features:
- Neighborhood GemNotis42Dined on 8/27/2014This local restaurant downtown on the tracks has come a long way over the years. The ambiance is very cool, rustic and elegant all rolled up together. The history of being "haunted" adds a bit of mystery to the over all experience and the food is good. There is something for everyone. They offer three dining experiences, outside on the patio, inside in the bar area and a much quieter dining room off to the side. Weekends offer some live music on the bar area. Overall I am happily to have a place like this right down the street, I wish there were more like this around.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food but noisyLizdg120Dined on 8/23/2014Overall it was a good dining experience. We went on a Saturday night and it was very busy but with a reservation we were seated right away. The wait staff was mostly attentive but our waitress could have been a little more personable. The roasted half chicken was delicious and my husband really enjoyed the baked cod dish. Serving sizes were on the larger side so we took home a doggie bag. The noise level was bad, the acoustics made it difficult at times to hear the waitress or my husband. Overall it was a good dining experience and we will visit again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Exceptional serviceGirlsdinnerDined on 8/19/2014Our server was fantastic, she kept such good care of us. Wish I recalled her name. Blonde hair pony tail, we sat near handicap entrance. The tuna was awesome, the Putin fries excellent & white sangria went down way too easy!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food and beer listOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/16/2014This was our second time to the Pub. We sat out on the spacious patio. Our waitress was friendly, knew the menu and beer list. The food was great. Everything has a gourmet touch. We will definitely go again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 8/2/2014Arrived at 5:10 on Saturday, and were seated at a table for two just inside the front door. When we asked for a larger table, they declined. (Six were visible.) when we left an hour later, five of the six tables for four were still unoccupied. Frankly, that introduction to the restaurant colored the rest of the experience. The menu didn't offer things they said the offered online. The beers, while craft rather than generic, were limited in selection (8). The food was good - but they created an inhospitable first impression and didn't recover. I don't plan to go back.
- Ashland treasureBlazepi13VIPDined on 8/2/2014This is our go-to restaurant in the Ashland area. The food is fantastic, the outdoor seating is cozy and comfortable, and the building itself is full of history (and spooky ghost stories)! Definitely recommend going here. We had the salmon and the chicken sandwich with the fries and curry sauce appetizer. The fries are so good! Our waitress was phenomenal and gave us a book to read about the haunted happenings at Stone's. We'll definitely be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Food and Great ServiceHappyPantsDined on 7/26/2014We've been visiting Stone's for many years, and I would like to say that the past 6-8 times we've had lunch or dinner here, we've had fantastic service, the beer is fresh, the wine list long, and the food is great. Vegetarian friendly, kid friendly. Great to spend time on the patio on a hot afternoon.Special Features:
- reliable and consistentmagpiebostonDined on 7/25/2014Stone's never disappoints but I do wish they offered dinner specials. They have never done this. The food is always good but the menu is very limited and a bit expensive. Even seasonal specials would be nice. Otherwise Stone's is a great place and I am proud to have this restaurant in our sleepy little town.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great outdoor diningCriticaldinerVIPDined on 7/24/2014I was there years ago and was good, but much more fun now. The cheese plate was perfect for 3 of us. Entrees were very tasty. Sherards pie was like an Irish stew with mashed potatoes and my daughter loved it. The chicken was cooked perfectly not dry at all. Fish and chips was very fresh and not too much batter. We will return soon with friends.Special Features:
- Live EntertainmentTexasAggie94Dined on 7/20/2014Had a band the evening we were there. The band was on the bar side and sitting on the other side was good. Could hear the music but still hold a conversation.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Never let downOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 7/19/2014Dining at Stones public house is always a good experience ...excellent service from Kerrin ! We had friends in town visiting and it was a perfect night, the good was fabulous and the service was great. No complaints from this crowd.Special Features:
- Had problem w Open Table gift certMarushkaDined on 7/19/2014Took forever for them to figure out how to apply and said it could be used towards tip and then said it couldn't. Too many TVs (4) in the dining roomSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BobGVIPDined on 7/18/2014This was our second visit and the place was just as crowded as our first visit. We waited about 20 minutes for our table; maybe that's just standard for Stone's. The food was very good. The fried oysters were exceptional and the soy marinaded hanger steak was well flavored (as well as being perfectly cooked). I was slightly disappointed with the wild mushroom risotto; I found evidence of a single mushroom, along with a lot of truffle oil. I suspect we'll be back.I would recommend this to a friend.
- good food but train too closeOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 7/18/2014We went for dinner and had reservations - while waiting to be seated we could not get a drink at the bar, could not get any bartender to acknowledge us. Once seated the waitress was very good. Sat out on the patio - was nice but when the train went by (3 times) while eating dinner - it was very loud.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Historic sightQuality13Dined on 7/11/2014If you enjoy historical locations this is the restaurant for you... a converted 1834 combo hotel and train station it is! busy bar scene, decent food, excellent service... Only negative here is that all the entres are ala carte. But even so, all in all worth the visit.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- jjjjVIPDined on 7/11/2014always great, service wonderful, Kerin super waitress.Special Features:
- Good food in nice buildingJeanDined on 6/21/2014Historic building, good pub-style food and friendly staff. Outdoor seating in nice months.....Special Features:
- Stone's by the TracksJeffDined on 6/21/2014We took friends to this venue and were fully satisfied. The outside dining was active but not noisy...except for the periodic trains passing by less than 100 yards away. You never see them but it is impossible to miss their pass by. Servings were tasty, varied and ample. The variety of options will satisfy a broad range of tastes and appetites. There is plenty of parking behind the House and the capacity surprises. Using OT certainly was the right way to ensure seating at this worthy spot!Special Features:
- My Neighborhood spot!heidisVIPDined on 6/20/2014I love Stones. It has everything a restaurant should. Great food, great beer and wine, great atmosphere and great service! I love the patio. The spot for the summer. Hardest decision is deciding between all the great craft brews and their great wine list. That Tuna is amazing. And the cheese board? I never get tired of that. You can't go wrong with any of the items on the menu. It's just a GREAT PLACE!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Father's Day VisitSufordDined on 6/15/2014Tony writes: My wife decided to try this place for a Father's Day meal. The "Irish" (stuffed with corned beef and cabbage) eggrolls were very good. I had the lamb shepherd's pie--the sauce had a proper amount of rosemary and the lamb was tender. I finished off with the carrot cake. My wife went--as expected--for the petit filet mignon with grilled asperagus and the Jack Daniels chocolate cake for dessert. There are only a small number of non-alcoholic and sugar-free beverages. I settled for tea. Our room was somewhat noisy but the restaurant is close to the railroad and I enjoyed it when the trains came by. Service was attentive.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A favorite placegladdinerDined on 6/15/2014This is an historic old place with excellent food. I am gluten free and my family is not, and I appreciate that we all get the same menu. The items that can be prepared for me are clearly marked "gf." My husband likes the wonderful selection of beers. The service is friendly and attentive. It is a destination restaurant for us, when the point of the outing is the meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fathers day brunchGRF4Dined on 6/15/2014My family went to Stones Public House for fathers day brunch . It was a very nice experience. It had been a number of years since I have been here. I was pleased with the service and food we all ate brunch items such as omelets, French toast, corned beef hash, and pancakes. Everyone thought the food was very good and nice portion size as well. The waitress was very nice and attended to our every need. I would definitely recommend this for brunch. They have a very nice outdoor seating area although we sat inside due to our party size. We will have to come back and try it for dinner soon. It is a nice warm place to have a meal, good food, good service, fair price.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/14/2014Food was very good. Interesting menu. Would not hesitate to return and/or recommend to friends. Service was great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Glad we went backAnnieVIPDined on 6/13/2014Live nearby and had not been in a few years. Dining room refurbished, more upscale. Food very good as was our waitress. Noisy at first with kids but quieter as meal went on, tables filled with adults in couples and small groups. Pear salad was excellent.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- not so greathungryDined on 6/13/2014I think the vinegar was left out of salad dressing. Burger s not cooked right. Screaming kids next to us. 150 wasted!! And the waitress didn't give back credit vCard ard. Had to go back next day again.Special Features:

- The following 79 reviews are from the Stone's Public House reviews archive.
- Love this placeBDaddyPDined on 6/1/2014Hadn't been here in about a decade and wonder why I haven't been back sooner. Great quality food and the service was 2nd to none. Great time!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- foodfanDined on 5/28/2014A group of 6 from our office met at Stone's for a celebratory lunch. It was excellent both in terms of food and service. Great sandwiches and small plates. I was the only one of the 6 who'd been there before, and all others expressed delight at finding out about it.Special Features:
- Over pricedOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 5/17/2014A lot of suburban restaurants are trying to model themselves after city restaurants. Not only was it over priced it wasn't up to par. The ala carte style menu lacked favor and over all taste. Great location but the food needs work. A pass.Special Features:
- Went with low expectationsBigDaddyDined on 5/16/2014My wife and I decided on a whim to go to dinner...looked for a restaurant using "Open Table" found Stones Public House...we decided to try it.....the place is old school..very warm in a cool way...we were seated promptly and our waitress was fantastic...the menu, beer and drink choices were great....fried calamari was awesome, I had the pork chop and my wife the sea bass, both were excellent. The side dishes....mashed potatoes with blue cheese & risotto with mushrooms were fantastic...we will return with friends. Highly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- ComfortjamarjoDined on 5/11/2014Stone's is very quaint and comfortable. The 18th century inn vibe is a nice departure from cold/generic city restaurants. During warmer months they have a nice outdoor dining area. Comfort food is served here and they have the best fries served with a spiced ketchup. The wait staff is very accommodating.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

As I lie here with a broken leg, my thoughts go out to Jossi who yesterday broke his neck. It's all relative. All the best for the rehab Jossi, Kia Kaha mate.
All eyes on the forecast with snow forecast right through to Sunday accompanied by stronger winds in the north. Some ski fields have re-opened with up to half a metre fallen in the last couple of days, check the reports. It may be a hat and goggle sort of Saturday but the snow will be GREAT!! A low will move east over the South Island drawing up some unsettled bandits from the pole. With another high moving into the Tasman from Aussie from Sunday this will be pushing the isobars together. Expect snow, then wind, mostly in the north before the next settled period. The avalanche advisory is already moderate to considerable, expect this to rise later in the week.
There are still a number of major events in the calendar before the end of the season including the Burton High Fives, Dobson Dash, Peak to the Powderkeg and Peak to Pub. Key dates: Sat 20th - Election Day; Sat 27th - Spring School Holiday begin; Sun 28th - Daylight Saving begins; Sun 5th October - traditional closing date for most ski areas. EVENT ORGANISERS: If we don't know about your event we can't promote it. Use CONTACT US (at the bottom right of this page) to let us know.

The only way to properly mix chemicals for any cleaning use is to follow the manufacturer's directions and measure both the water and the chemical used. The chemical is usually added to the water to prevent generating excess foam or spattering of a concentrate due to water pressure.
When a 1 to 8 ratio is called for, the larger number is the water, not the concentrate you are diluting. Get it backwards and you will waste chemical and possibly harm surfaces. Some specialty coatings such two or three part epoxy and wood finishes will specify part A into B, and then into C. Always read and follow... — Bill Griffin, president of Cleaning Consultant Services Inc.

I am a tinkerer. I don't see my self as an innovator, or an inventor.
I'm the guy who can take something, fiddle with it for a while, and make it work in a different way. That's the way I use social media. It's adaptive, modular, and flexible enough to be able to work with in ways that are never the same for multiple people or businesses.
I'm concerned though. The social web and social businesses are booming, there's no doubt about that. I'm worried though about one simple question. What's next?
What's the next step?
As social becomes more prominent and more businesses – both small and large – begin adopting and leveraging the tools available to them, there's a lot to be left as a giant question mark. The question mark becomes, what is the value that you're offering?
I have no doubt in my mind that there is extreme value in relationships. To that I have no question, debate, or dispute. After we have built and maintained these relationships though, I wonder what the value of social media is.
It's not like I don't work in this industry. I see it every day. I see brands bringing top-notch customer service, solid engagement, and they give back knowledge to their fans on Facebook and followers on Twitter.
But after we've made our relationships matter and nurtured our leads, turned them into conversions, measured our bad-ass through the roof ROI, what then? Where is the value? What are we giving to our customers that they aren't getting somewhere else?
So many 2012 trends, but it's all for the biz!
I have a huge amount of respect for David Armano. His 2012 predictions are probably some of the more realistic and more credible. My concern is that 5 of 6 of his predictions are "business oriented". By that I mean the ultimate value is to the business.
If we want social media to succeed in the future, we need to find out where the value is to customers. Ultimately, if the customer finds no value they will move away from your attempt at using social media in their favor.
As we move forward in this next year, we -as marketers- must focus on the value to the customer. Think about it this way: What is the ROI that the customer gets? Don't think about it as: What's the ROI to our business as the customer continues down our conversion funnel?
Leave a comment below and tell me what you think is going to happen this coming year. Not predictions, per se, but tell me how you plan on giving value.

ULTA: Will Earnings Be Looking Good?
AnnaLisa is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Almost every woman I know has a medicine cabinet full of beauty products amassed over the years. Even women who wouldn't call themselves high maintenance own a plethora of cosmetics, hair products, groomers, straighteners, dryers, fragrance and on and on. And where do they go to replenish their beauty stores? They've been going to Ulta Salon (NASDAQ: ULTA) if the company's numbers have been any indication.
Ulta has been quite the outperformer and it's reporting Q3 results on November 29. Will the nation's largest beauty product retailer (over 20,000 products) also offering salon services for both men and women maintain its superior performance as it did last quarter beating on both top and bottom lines? Usually one can gauge earnings by the performance of competitors on the same quarter. But on their latest earnings reports rival Regis Corp (NYSE: RGS) disappointed badly and Sally Beauty Supply (NYSE: SBH) announced profits rose and beat analyst expectations.
Ulta pulled back big from its high of $103.52 when the CFO left in October, but both RW Baird and Goldman Sachs saw the weakness as a buying opportunity with Goldman giving a price target of $115. This turnover in the CFO position has pressured the stock. Former CFO Gregg Bodnar presented the numbers at the last ER on September 6 with Bruce Hartman to become CFO the next day. Then Hartman resigned in mid-October. Ulta appointed Scott Settersten as interim CFO and announced the company would continue to search for a new CFO.
Gaga Over Grooming
CEO Chuck Rubin was particularly upbeat on the company's Q2 call in which he laid out their five prong growth strategy:broadening market reach with in-store events and media, enhancing their customer loyalty reward program, introducing new products and services, expanding and renovating current stores, and finally improving the Ulta.com site and expanding their digital and social media presence.
In pursuit of these goals the company has been spending quite a bit on advertising and promotion. Notable promotions included Frizz-Free Fridays to introduce customers to a new salon service, special straightening blowouts. There was also spending in connection with the introduction of a Lady Gaga fragrance which turned out to be a big hit as well as the rollout of premium cosmetic brands Lancome and Clinique. Rubin noted the Clinique and Lancome additions will not add to this years' numbers.
As for the customer loyalty reward program membership reached a 10 million member milestone (active shoppers for at least one year) and they've been improving customer reach with members only promotions.
The largest beauty product supplier in the US also announced on the call they have been increasing store count and remodeling existing stores. New stores are opening faster than planned and once open are performing better than stores opened the year before. They increased numbers for possible store count from 1,000 to 1,200 stores in the US. Store count currently stands at 489 stores in 45 states. This year alone they are opening 100 new stores and remodeling 21 stores. With these initiatives capital expenditures have risen to $180 million in 2012 from $129 million the year before, mostly due the opening of the new stores and a new distribution center in the Northeast.
Is Ulta Too High Maintenance?
Ulta's P/E is 40.45 with a forward P/E of 27.43. However, the company has some attractive aspects: the company has no debt, the insider hold is 22.49%, and the return on equity is 25.58%. In Q2 margins were up considerably with gross profit margins up 80 basis points to 34.8% and operating margins up 180 basis points.
On the call CFO Bodnar guided for a negative impact on operating margin in the third quarter because of the opening of 52 new stores. He predicted EPS in the range of $0.54-56 and sales in the $494 to $503 million range, a 20% improvement over the last Q3 and for same store sales to rise 6-8%. But gross margins are only expected to expand by 60 basis points.
The question is will this be enough for analysts who have raised the bar even higher after two consecutive beats. Ulta is in a position of strength between its two rivals as it doesn't have the weakness of the beauty salons at Regis and it has a more general appeal and variety of its beauty products than Sally Beauty Supply which is targeted more to beauty professionals. At this point in their expansion one could say it most closely competes with Sephora owned by LVMH Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessey (OTC:LVMHUY) and Macy's (NYSE: M) with its collection of prestige brands like Clinique and Lancome and trained salespeople. But Ulta has salon services and aestheticians on staff.
The Price of Beauty
Ulta may be sitting pretty between competitor Regis with its return on equity of -10.62% and Sally Beauty Supply with a of P/E of 19.56 but total debt of 1.62 billion to cash of 240.22 million. However, the short interest in Ulta has grown by 25% from the end of September to November and already the company said EPS would be little higher than Q2's $0.54. Same store sales growth has been slowing slightly year over year and the aggressive expansion plans will compromise margin expansion.
Analysts will be questioning the status of the CFO position as well as closely scrutinizing the same store numbers and how much margins were really impacted by these expansions and remodeling. The stock has already risen twice as much as the S&P over 52 weeks despite the pullback in October. While analysts are still bullish with a mean price target of $112.14 this is a momentum retail name and could have a serious slide if analysts are not pleased. This is a name to be very closely watched and any positions taken before earnings should be small.

ok so damon salvatore found out katherine is not dead and sets out to find her, on his quest he stumbles upon a crying girl in a forest, yes bella swan defenseless against laurent, damon annoyed just kills laurent because he was looking for a good fight and when the wolves come damon bratty as ever takes bella hostage. bella doesnt care what he does with her. so damon bribes his hostage to tell him her worries, she confeses she is afraid of victoria and that once edward left she just wants to die. damon knows the feeling pretty well and thus feeling he ows her that, he tells bella about his kind of "different class 1" vampires, about katherine and stefan, bella understands damon's worries.
seeing this unusual thing damon proposes a deal to bella he will protect her from "class 2" vamps (sparkling vampires) and keep charlie safe if she agrees to stick around him, in other words bella will become his possetion and he will only feed on her blood, although he really wants her to talk to him more, its tipical(?) in damon to take things by force. bella's good nature sees trough him and she accepts.
as time passes bella became damon's "girl" after he found out katherine was with claus. damon decided to go back to mistic falls and make things right with stefan and elena, he as always brings bella along, now that he realized he loves her and proposed. he wants his family to meet his fancee
bella is really different, she is caring but only for damon, the rest can burn in hell, picked up alot of his personality cares only for damon and herself, cold, conceited, and a damon counter with a neclace with the salvatore crest made of lapiz lazuli she never takes of it tells everyone that she is a salvatore.
so in the day damon decides to go back to school everyone is atonished at the couple. the pretty bad girl comes riding in a bike with the hansome salvatore bad boy, she is wearing a necklace with their crest and are hand in hand,they must be officiall,stefan and elena are just happy for damon. what stefan and elena didnt tell them is that a family of "class 2" vamps are in mistic falls
edward is lifeless and is having lunch with his family, keeping tabs on stefan, when damon comes in he picture obiously showing off his fiancee, edward out of rage punches damon with a botle of verbane wich makes him very weak. what will happen when bella does what she always does, she cuts a vein open and forces damon to drink from her not knowing who atacked damon, with jasper near and her blood voluntarilly spilled, will stefan and damon protect bella? what will edward do when he sees bella cares as much for damon as to offer him her blood and has agreed to marry him? will bella be confused about her love for her "class 1" fiancee and her first real love?
Should I write it? I got the idea from escaily_wishing on a star.

The principal parties affected by Judge Redfield T. Baum's ruling that rejected Jim Balsillie's offer to purchase and relocate the Phoenix Coyotes have weighed in on the decision.
Bill Walker, spokesman for Balsillie's PSE Sports and Entertainment group, joined TSN's SportsCentre on Monday evening. He discussed his group's plans in the aftermath of the judge's ruling.
"I think all of our reactions were that this is just the next stage in the process," said Walker. "The judge essentially rejected the NHL's position in court, and it rejected our position in court. It said that you two need to go away and figure out these relocation issues and what the fee would be, and bring me back the answers so I can approve this deal through bankruptcy."
Walker also suggested that plans for the Balsillie group to pursue the Coyotes franchise will continue.
"We'll start working (on Tuesday) to move this ahead and get a clearer answer from the NHL in terms of their response to the court. The court reiterated that Jim Balsillie is an approved NHL owner as of 2006, that that still remains the fact, and the court said that the NHL needs to set the relocation fee," said Walker. "In many respects the court put the ball back in the NHL's court, and said 'you need to work these things out.'"
Balsillie's group also released a statement prior to the judge's ruling, which indicated that his team will have a live briefing with the media on Tuesday.
The city of Hamilton also remained hopeful following the ruling.
"Mr. Balsillie released a statement to suggest that it is not over and that they continue to aspire to getting a team in Hamilton," said Mayor Fred Eisenberger on Monday night. "We'll continue to try and impress upon [the NHL] that hockey is very viable in Hamilton and there is lots of community support."
In response to Baum's 21-page ruling, NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly released a statement on behalf of the league.
"We're pleased the Court recognized the validity of League rules and our ability to apply them in a reasonable fashion. We will turn our attention now toward helping to facilitate an orderly sales process that will produce a local buyer who is committed to making the Coyotes' franchise viable and successful in the Phoenix/Glendale area," said Daly.
"We are confident that we will be able to find such a buyer for the Coyotes and that the claims of legitimate creditors will be addressed."
Steve Roman, spokesman for Coyotes owner Jerry Moyes, told TSN on Monday evening, "We are disappointed in the ruling and will evaluate our options."

Carson City deputies say a man that led them on a chase after crashing into a patrol car is now in custody.
The chase began around 8:15 p.m. Thursday along North Ridge Drive in Carson City.
Deputies say they ran the car's license plate and learned it was stolen. But when they tried to stop the car, the driver took off, driving into the parking lot of a nearby Walmart.
From there, deputies began chasing the man back to North Didge Drive where they say he rammed their patrol car, crashed the stolen car and got out and ran.
A number of law enforcement agencies came to search for the man including the Washoe County Sheriff's RAVEN helicopter.
The Carson City Sheriff's Office tells Channel 2 News 31-year old Edward Carroll of Marin County (California) was arrested Friday. Deputies tell us he was found at a bus yard near Carson High School when a Carson City Sheriff's Office K-9 helped arrest him.
Deputies tell us he is charged with driving a stolen vehicle, assaulting an officer, obstruction and breaking parole in California as a convicted felon.
Deputies also arrested two women, Nina Montalbano and Ebony Turnipseed who were in the stolen car last night.
Deputies confirm they were both charged with obstruction. Montalbano was also charged with being in possession of drug paraphernalia.
Deputies tell us investigators learned the two lived with Carroll.
