Every college student should know that from day one of freshman year you have to network. The more you network the better your chance of getting a job. What some don't understand is that networking can literally make your dreams come true.
One of the best ways to network is through internships and getting into contests. If you're a film or video creator, there are few better options than the College Television Awards (CTAs). The CTAs are in their 33rd year, and the awards are run by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Foundation.
There are 12 categories including television, drama, documentaries and others. The judges are members of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Foundation and often judge for the Emmy Awards.
Along with bragging rights there are even ways to receive scholarships.
Getting Your Foot in the Door
One of the biggest doors that can open after receiving an honor like a Student Emmy Award is the possibility to meet and network with your presenter. The presenters of the CTAs are celebrities, and networking with one of them can certainly jump start your career.
Last year, Julian Higgins took home the Best Director Award. Higgins, who is a graduate of the American Film Institute in California, was presented with his award by producer Greg Yaitanes. Yaitanes is the producer of the hit television show House, M.D. He has also worked on Heroes, Grey's Anatomy and Prison Break and won his own Emmy in 2008 for his work on House.
Higgins won the award for a short film that he directed about the boyhood of Saddam Hussein. The film was based loosely on real events. Yaitanes ended up seeing Higgins' film and offering him the opportunity of a lifetime: He invited Higgins shadow him while he worked on an episode of House.
"I saw his short film which I thought was really terrific, and we invited him at that time to come to the show and see how we make an episode of television," said Yaitanes. "I mean we are the most popular a TV show, and I thought that would be a great way to come in and learn what the day to day operations of a TV show is."
Higgins took every opportunity he could to learn from Yaitanes, and he allowed Higgins to shadow for more than the one episode.
"So, I shadowed him for the first episode, and he opened the invitation for the whole season," said Higgins. "Just getting to shadow a director on that level is extremely rare anyway so I would've been totally alright with that being it."
Yaitanes was impressed with Higgins eagerness to learn and soak up as much information as he could. When you're given the opportunity to be around people you can learn from, it's important to ask questions, take notes and let them know you're interested in what they're doing.
Mentoring seems to be the thing that successful television producers and film directors [recommend]. Mentoring seems to be one of the things they are most enthusiastic about because they understand how crazy it is that they get to do what they do.
"He came every day asked good questions [so] we included him a collaborator," said Yaitanes. "I'd get his notes and see what he'd have to say. He seemed to be in tune with a director that we'd have on the show."
Yaitanes saw that Higgins was talented, and he admired Higgins' drive. Yaitanes wanted to help him succeed.
"He's investing the time and doing the work. Interestingly, more so than people on the show that had asked to direct," said Yaitanes. "This was a very impressive thing that you want to see in a director. I took myself off of the episode and gave it to Julian."
Higgins is now preparing to do his episode of House, and as you might imagine, he's excited.
"I've been yearning for a moment like that for over half of my life. I realized in seventh grade that I wanted to direct as a career, and I've been pursuing that sole goal ever since," said Higgins. "None of this would've happened if the [Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Foundation] hadn't recognized my film."
Finding a mentor
By entering the CTAs, Higgins was able to gain a mentor. Mentors are incredibly valuable to newbies in the workforce. Yaitanes himself had a mentor when he graduated from college.
"I was fortunate to be given my start, and I largely credit a director that is now deceased named Richard Compton," said Yaitanes.
The late Richard Compton worked on JAG, Baywatch, Star Trek: The Next Generation and Charmed. Compton helped a young Yaitanes get his start and Yaitanes felt like Higgins was a way to pay it forward.
"Mentoring seems to be the thing that successful television producers and film directors [recommend]," said Higgins. "Mentoring seems to be one of the things they are most enthusiastic about because they understand how crazy it is that they get to do what they do."
Yaitanes also mentioned to Julian that mentoring was so important that he wanted him to pay it forward some day as well.
"[Greg told me] years from now when you need someone like you need now, you pay me back by giving them that opportunity," said Higgins. "He's paying it forward, and he's just a good man."
"No one will submit your Work for you"
Higgins is glad that he made the effort to enter the CTAs. He knows now how important it is to get your work out for others to see. He also says that you shouldn't think about whether your work will win an award or not. It's just important to make the effort.
"My mom told me a long time ago 'you certainly won't get it if you don't apply. No one is going to come hunt down your film, there are so many films being made,'" said Higgins. "You have to take advantage of the opportunities that are in front of you."
Yaitanes, who also has played a large part in beta testing and is a big Twitter user, agrees with Julian. He thinks that social media and other resources are much more easily accessible to rookies looking to get in to the business.
"My feeling is now there's absolutely no excuse for leaving school with something in your hands," said Yaitanes. "The ability to tell those stories is now in everybody's hands. So, if you have something to say there's no excuse to not say it."
The College Television Awards is currently taking submissions for next year's awards from now until January 11, 2012 at 6:00 PM PST.

An Accidental Lifesaver (cont.)
During the surgery, the half of the thyroid where the nodule resides is removed, and a pathologist is on standby to confirm or deny if it is thyroid cancer. If it is, then the other half of the thyroid is removed. If not, the other half of the thyroid is left alone.
Ken opted for surgery. Ken chose the surgeon who had inserted tubes in his son's ears to stop his chronic ear infections 13 years ago. Ken also felt comfortable with the surgeon because when they met, the surgeon showed him information and pictures straight from MedicineNet.com!
By the time Ken underwent the surgery, the thyroid nodule had grown to roughly the size of a walnut. The pathologist confirmed that it indeed was thyroid cancer, so Ken's entire thyroid was removed.
"The scary thing with having surgery on your thyroid is that they're cutting open right where all your vocal cords are, and they make you sign all this paperwork that X, Y, and Z can happen," Ken said.
After the surgery, Ken was weaned off his medication because it would interfere with the radiation therapy he needed to ensure all the cancer was eradicated. His radiation therapy consisted of one megadose of radioactive iodine followed by 3 days of isolation.
After the radiation treatment, he was able to begin his thyroid hormone replacement with Synthroid again, although it took a few weeks to take effect. Without it in his system, Ken's speech and movement slowed significantly, which made his work as a designer extremely difficult. So, in addition to the Synthroid, Ken was prescribed liothyronine sodium (Cytomel), which was to work quicker and stronger than the Synthroid in getting his hormone levels back to normal. However, Ken was soon taken off the Cytomel because his hands and feet started peeling as a side effect from the drug.
Today, 48-year-old Ken is cancer-free and on Synthroid for life. His hormone levels are right on target and he regularly gets his blood checked for this. Once a year, he has a nuclear scan to make sure he's still cancer-free.
Ken has lost weight and is back to surfing, running, and keeping up with his two teenage kids.
"I think mentally, for me, dropping the extra 35 to 40 pounds was a big boost," Ken said. "The fact that you're able to lose the weight: It helps stimulate everything else; it kind of puts you back on the right track, at least it did for me."
In just a few years, Ken conquered cancer and is back to normal. He said he feels fortunate, especially when so many others with his condition are still struggling with their medication, weight, or both.
"I definitely have a new perspective on life. When you have a scare like that, things like, I want to go here, do that, see this...I'm taking the steps now to do those things. For example, I've always wanted to go to Australia, and so I just recently booked the trip," Ken said. "Traveling for me has always been kind of shelved, but why wait? Why put it off? If it's something you truly want to do, do it. Because you know, 2 years from now, you may not be around!"
Ken Brown,* thyroid cancer patient, Orange County, California.

Get ready for "Survivorman: Riddick"
Vin Diesel and his alter ego "Riddick" are finally set to return to theaters and IMax on September 6, 2013. For those of you who are stupid and not just sold by the name Vin Diesel, this chapter in the Riddick series finds the blind guy left for dead on a sun soaked planet fighting for survival. I swear I'd see a movie if they just called it "Vin Diesel Doing Things".
If you're like me, and I pray you're not, your big New Years Eve plans revolve around getting drunk in front of the TV and screaming at Ryan Seacrest. It's sad. But now those plans may need to be put on hold because FearNet has announced they'll be doing a 12 hour marathon of the classic HBO series "Tales From the Crypt" hosted by the Cryptkeeper himself. This marks the first time in 15 years that John Kassir has reprised his role as the funny dead-one to pump out new material. It will also be the first time in 4 years that I plan on trying to stay upright till at least 8 pm.
IFC has finally dropped a release date for the much anticipated, by me at least, documentary "My Amityville Horror". The flick is a look inside the murders and spooky-time events that took place at the famous house some 30+ years ago. It also marks the first time that Daniel Lutz, who was 10 at the time, has gone on record about the events. Oh, the release date is March 1st for VOD. I probably should of mentioned that earlier.
It looks like the US remake of the Chilean horror flick "Hidden In the Woods" has officially been picked up for a 2013 US release. The film follows two girls and their fight to escape the horror they've faced all their life while living under the rule of an evil drug lord. No word yet on a specific release date or what sort of distribution the flick will get but stay tuned. If any info happens to be posted on the random days I decide to do the news you'll be the first to know. Or not.
A Golden Corral in Wyoming has been temporarily shut down after 167 people reported getting food poisoning after visiting the buffet. Is it wrong that I think I would still go there? I'm a sucker for an ice cream bar.
Cops had to come to a South Carolina home after there was a report of domestic abuse that was apparently caused by the husbands farts. Said farts were apparently so bad that his wife was gagging and couldn't take it anymore. This guy sounds like an American hero.
I've never seen a "Riddick" movie but I kind of love that they're still making them. This still comes from the latest, subtitled "Dead Man Stalking" (get it) which is currently in production with no release date yet. Seriously, Vin Diesel having a lot of time on his hands can't be good for anyone. Let us thank the heavens he has Riddick films to keep him busy.
Looks like there's another "Riddick" movie coming our way in the future... because if it's one thing we all need, it's more Vin Diesel??
The remake of "The Legend of Boggy Creek" has a cast. In other news, "The Legend of Boggy Creek" is being remade? There aren't even words to describe this remake disease anymore.
New "Sorority Row" poster, again, utilizing it's biggest um... "assets". I'm ashamed to say it's sort of working on me.
Brian Singer might be directing a "sequel" to the 70's "Battlestar Galactica" series? Doesn't that seem odd when the Syfy series actually has a fairly big following? Nothing is concrete at this point, but the rumor is that Universal is pursuing Singer to produce and possibly direct the film.
Here's a cool story... Clive Barker to produce television series penned by Marcus Dunston and Patrick Melton, who wrote and directed "The Collector" which just came out recently. The series is about a "haunted hotel". Sounds pretty sweet!
Next time someone tells you American television is out of control, you could probably point them in the direction of this Brazilian fellow who was just arrested for having murdering people, for the sole purpose of having gruesome murders to report on his crime show. Pretty sure there's a movie script in there somewhere... have at it writers!
Live in California? Love testicles? Well you're in luck, as Santa Cruz County is about to hold their first ever "testicle festival". At the festival, farmers and ranchers will be serving up all different kinds of animal nuts. Enjoy!
1521: After an 80-day siege, Spanish conquistador Hernando Cortés captures Tenochtitlan, capital of the Aztec Empire. When the Spaniards fail to discover Montezuma's treasure, they torture Cuauhtemoc by pouring hot oil over his feet. The emperor responds by asking, "Am I on a bed of roses?" They hang him three years later.
This week we discuss alchemy, camera technology, a first time guest host joins the show, and we review "As Above, So Below".

Hawaii's Top 20 Financial Advisors
How Hawaii's Financial Advisors Stack Up
When searching for someone to manage your investments, an interest in you, your life and your family is perhaps the most important characteristic to look for in a financial advisor. That's why R.J. Shook, author and cofounder of The Winner's Circle, which compiles national and regional lists of top advisors, says if you go into an advisor's office and all he or she does is talk about themselves, walk out.
In today's marketplace, a financial advisor needs to be the quarterback helping you handle retirement issues, tax-code changes, legal issues and just about everything else. That kind of attention requires a passionate interest in you, not just a good stock tip. What follows is a list of 20 advisors who do that better than anyone.
The Winner's Circle does not receive compensation from financial advisors, the participating firms or their affiliates, or the media, in exchange for ranking. The ranking process begins with a survey of top securities firms, insurance companies, banks and other organizations that employ series-7 registered financial advisors; each of these firms must promote objective and independent advice with open-architecture access to financial products and services. For advisors to be considered for the list, they must first have a minimum of seven years of financial services experience.
The rankings are based on qualitative criteria: discussions with senior management and compliance departments, and other weighted criteria that includes compliance records, wealth-management focus, client retention reports and customer satisfaction reports. Advisors are then quantitatively ranked based on an algorithm that weighs varying types of revenues and custodied and non-custodied assets advised by the financial professional. Since revenues are reported differently among firms and financial advisory teams, revenues are adjusted in order to provide equal comparisons. (Revenues are not published in order to maintain the confidentiality of the advisors.) Additional qualitative measures include in-depth interviews with each advisor, and discussions with peers and customers. The ranking does not consider client portfolio performance.

Product Info:
Mace (Myristica Fragrans) is actually part of the Nutmeg plant; it is the lacy, orange Aril which covers the Nutmeg seed.
The history of these two seasonings goes back to at least the first century of the Common Era.
Mace was well known in South Asian cooking for centuries.
The Arabs were the ones to introduce Mace and Nutmeg to modern Western European kitchens.
The flavor of Mace is similar to Nutmeg but more delicate.
Suggested Use:
Mace is useful for traditional British pound cakes, puddings as well as meat and fish dishes.
Mace is useful when flavoring light flavored clear soups and sauces, it adds a delicate flavor and does not darken the visual appearance because of its light color.
The lovely couscoussiere I received from you was even better than I had hoped. It is so pretty and very substantial. I have not used it yet but I am displaying it in my newly done kitchen. I just ... read more

A Michigan Court of Appeals ruled today that the claim of "gay panic" does not hold up to defend the actions of a hate crime assault. The argument, as it was presented in this trial, was that Dale Cutler was so threatened that Ryan Young would come on to him that he had no choice but to inflict serious harm upon him. A jury found Cutler guilty of assault with intent to inflict great bodily harm and he was sentenced to 11 to 25 years in prison. (Read the full Appeals Court ruling.)

Question description
I am in uasin gishu and needed drip irrigation on my garden,where can i get it?
Asked by Mr Raymond Kipkorir

We are considering soil testing and hence advice on the way forward. In this regard we would like to know the following: 1. Does KARI carry out soil testing? 2. If yes to (1),where and at what cost? 3. Where would we get guidance on collection of samples.4.Should we submit samples from the two regions for comparison or just one sample from the poorer performing area would suffice? Thanks in advance

In the Fall of 2010, his second season as head coach, McCarty lead the Falcons to another NCAA Division III National Championship. The team concluded the season with an overall record of 23-1. This was the program's eighth national title in 10 years and third straight.
A 1993 Messiah graduate, McCarty was named head coach of the Messiah men's soccer Feb. 9, 2009, becoming the seventh head coach in the program's storied 43-year history.

Washington, D.C., March 16, 2011 – The American Public Health Association strongly
supports a proposed rule issued today by the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) to safeguard the public's health from dangerous air pollutants by
reducing the level of toxins emitted by coal- and oil-burning power plants.
The proposal is a
significant step to cleaning up toxics such as mercury, sulfur dioxide, arsenic
and other harmful pollutants that pervade the air in many local communities,
especially those in close proximity to power plants, and jeopardize the health
of all Americans.
Under the new rule by the
Clean Air Act, all existing coal- and oil-burning plants that produce 25
megawatts or more of electricity will be required to install control technology
to reduce emissions of toxic air pollutants. New plants will be required to
meet the same level of technology and protections.
"Hazardous air emissions
from coal- and oil-burning power plants cause a whole range of serious and
immediate human health risks," said Georges
C. Benjamin, MD, FACP, FACEP (E), executive director of APHA. "These pollutants
can worsen asthma and other respiratory diseases; cause heart attacks, cancers
and stroke; and exact an enormous economic toll in terms of health-related
costs and lost productivity. We applaud EPA for following the clear evidence in
cleaning up these toxins from the air we breathe and safeguarding the public's health."
The final regulations are
expected to take effect within four years from the date EPA makes them final,
which is expected by Nov. 16, 2011.
Founded in 1872, the APHA is the oldest and most diverse organization of public health professionals in the world. The association aims to protect all Americans and their communities from preventable, serious health threats and strives to assure community-based health promotion and disease prevention activities and preventive health services are universally accessible in the United States. APHA represents a broad array of health providers, educators, environmentalists, policy-makers and health officials at all levels working both within and outside governmental organizations and educational institutions.

See the latest in design trends during the 12th London Design Festival at venues across the capital. Leading the way in innovation, this festival celebrates the best creative talents with a range of exciting events and exhibitions.
Looking to place London as the design capital of the world, leading practitioners from all nations gather to show off their latest works. Over 300 events and exhibitions are staged by hundreds of different studios and individuals, covering a broad spectrum of design innovation.
London Design Festival: Design Festivals
Ranging from exhibitions and seminars to shows and pop-up events, the programme makes full use of the many unique spaces to be found in the capital. Events can be found everywhere from the Victoria and Albert Museum to small local studios, with a select few taking place at some iconic London landmarks.
Always highly original, design enthusiasts should brace themselves for some thought-provoking works in the most unexpected of places.
Among the highlights of the 2014 festival is the A Place Called Home installation. This features individual "homes" erected in Trafalgar Square where, in conjunction with accommodation provider Airbnb, designers Jasper Morrison, Patternity, Raw Edges and Studioilse are each given a room to showcase individuality in interior design (from 18-21 September).
The Victoria and Albert Museum continues to play a vital role in the festival, and for 2014, it includes the interactive The Drone Aviary. These various drones taking up residency in the on-site John Madejski Garden even have their own Twitter accounts, providing unique images from the flying objects. Inside, a stunning installation by designers Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby, which is composed of two giant moving sculptures, is on show during the festival at the Raphael Gallery.
Fifteen windows along Regent Street will feature special installations as part of the RIBA Regent Street Windows Project. The best of London's architectural talent will take to the windows as part of the London Design Festival. The exhibition will run for three weeks from 1–21 Sep, which coincides with London Fashion Week.

Rethinking the delivery of courses to parallel changes in the business and educational landscapes is crucial to the future of business education. When it comes to online learning and incorporating more technology into the classroom, business schools such as the Sellinger School need to make wise decisions that will be of use today while also positioning us well for the future. As a result, we must regularly undertake an extensive review of the business school model and how we can work to lead change. Although many business school classes were not being taught digitally as recently as five years ago, you'd have a difficult time today foreseeing a future in which many of those same courses would not in some way be offered online in years to come. Deciding when and how to incorporate technology in learning can remain a challenging question, though.
At Loyola we are taking some of our traditional classes and converting them to technology-driven classes using the Competency Assessment in Distributed Education (CADE) methodology put together by the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities (AJCU). After giving much consideration to the outcomes we want for our students, we work backwards to determine what needs to be covered in each module during the semester to lead to the desired outcome. Sometimes these outcomes support a technological solution; sometimes an in-person solution.
Using this methodology, I had intended to convert the introductory finance course I will teach to a hybrid course, but after reviewing the learning objectives and desired outcomes with CADE it became very clear that I can teach this class as a fully online course. Although the startup costs for using technology to record my lectures, select videos to include, etc., may be high initially, the benefit of the amount of time that I can spend on practical applications to improve student retention and learning makes the investment worthwhile. I hope a possible next step is incorporating a service project into an introductory online business course. Knowing the important role technology can play in our students' academic and professional careers, I look forward to discovering more opportunities to incorporate technology into all aspects of the Loyola education experience—intellectually, socially, and spiritually.
As always, if you have any thoughts on this topic, please contact me at email@example.com. Enjoy the last weeks of summer.
View a video of Karyl B. Leggio, Ph.D., dean of the Sellinger School.

Learn More About Working at CBO and the Agency's Career Opportunities
May 25, 2010
The Navy is required by law to submit a report to the Congress each year that projects the service's shipbuilding requirements, procurement plans, inventories, and costs over the coming 30 years. Since 2006, CBO has been performing an independent analysis of the Navy's latest shipbuilding plan at the request of the Subcommittee on Seapower and Expeditionary Forces of the House Armed Services Committee. Today CBO released its latest report that summarizes the ship requirements and purchases described in the Navy's 2011 plan and estimates their implications for the Navy's funding needs and ship inventories through 2040.
The Navy's report—issued in February and covering fiscal years 2011 to 2040—contains some significant changes in its long-term goals for shipbuilding. The new plan appears to increase the required size of the fleet compared with earlier plans, while reducing the number of ships to be purchased—and thus the costs for ship construction—over the next three decades. Despite those reductions, the total costs of carrying out the 2011 plan would be much higher than the funding levels that the Navy has received in recent years, according to analysis by CBO. Specifically,
- Language in the 2011 shipbuilding plan and in related briefings by the Navy implies that the service's requirement for battle force ships (aircraft carriers, submarines, surface combatants, amphibious ships, and some logistics and support ships) now totals 322 or 323—up from 313 in the Navy's three previous long-term plans. The battle force fleet currently numbers 286 ships.
- The 2011 plan calls for buying a total of 276 ships over the 2011–2040 period: 198 combat ships and 78 logistics and support ships. That construction plan is insufficient to achieve a 322- or 323-ship fleet. In comparison, the previous shipbuilding plan (for 2009) envisioned buying 40 more combat ships and 20 fewer support ships over 30 years.
- If the Navy receives the same amount of funding for ship construction in the next 30 years as it has over the past three decades—an average of about $15 billion a year in 2010 dollars—it will not be able to afford the purchases in the 2011 plan.
- The Navy estimates that the construction of the new ships in the 2011 plan will cost an average of about $16 billion per year. Expenditures for other activities that are typically funded from the Navy's budget accounts for ship construction—such as refueling nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and outfitting new ships with various small pieces of equipment after the ships have been built or delivered—will add about $2 billion to the Navy's average annual shipbuilding costs under the 2011 plan, in CBO's estimation, bringing the average cost to a total of $18 billion per year.
- Using its own models and assumptions, CBO estimates that the average total cost to implement the Navy's plan will come to $21 billion per year. about 18 percent higher than the Navy's estimates overall. That figure masks considerable variation over time, however: CBO's estimates are 4 percent higher than the Navy's for the first 10 years of the plan, 13 percent higher for the following decade, and 37 percent higher for the final 10 years of the plan. Those differences result partly from different estimating methods and different assumptions about the design and capabilities of future ships. The estimates also diverge because CBO accounted for the fact that costs of labor and materials have traditionally grown much faster in the shipbuilding industry than in the economy as a whole, whereas the Navy does not appear to have done so. That difference becomes more pronounced over time.
This study was prepared by Eric Labs of CBO's National Security Division.

- Can't go wrongBrandyDined on 9/27/2014Il Fornaio downtown San Jose has done it once again. We recently had a an amazing meal and service with a beautiful view overlooking the Market Street park in San Jose. We've been coming here for years for special occasions and yes, I've had slightly bad service before or a subtle nuance in my meal, but overall, it's a lovely place to come with family for a special occasion. Thank you Il Fornaio for going above and beyond. It was a most memorable celebration for us! See you in November!Special Features:
- Great birthday lunch at Il Forniao!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/25/2014We had a birthday lunch for three co-workers and everything was fabulous! Great service, amazing food and great atmosphere! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for fresh authentic Italian food and amazing service!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great anniversary dinner!dtw927VIPDined on 9/21/2014Visited Il Fornaio once again in San Jose (In the Sainte Claire hotel) for an anniversary dinner last weekend. Great appetizer of calamaretti fritto, pasta dinners and their fabulous afogatto dessert. Very good wine list, attentive but not intrusive service, and we went with the server's recommendations and were better for it......a great place for an upscale pasta meal, with all the trimmings! Just remember to go on a evening or afternoon when there are no events at either the nearby San Jose Center or SAP Center/Stadium, otherwise there are crowds to contend with. You can easily check event dates online. Buono appetito!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food after the SJ OperaPanacheLassDined on 9/21/2014We all arrived at once; have suggested that they use a waiter to get the names of those who have reservations and show them to their seats ASAPI would recommend this to a friend.
- Very GoodJohnVIPDined on 9/20/2014The food and service were great. My wife and I both had the mixed seafood grill which was an large selection of fish, scallops, prawns and calamari. Perfectly cooked and very flavorful. Being in a historic hotel contributes to the nice atmosphere.Special Features:
- Perfect for date nightDatenightDined on 9/20/2014Requested window and/or quiet romantic table at reservation request. Got exactly as requested followed by a fabulous meal, fantastic service and overall wonderful evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always GreatSanjosedinerDined on 9/20/2014Excellent service, food and environment. Seated on time, got us out on time for our theater engagement and the dinner was delicious. Whenever I'm looking for a guaranteed good experience for a small dinner party, I go to Il Fornaio.Special Features:
- SplendidmaggieinlgDined on 9/18/2014As usual our food was outstanding, the service was wonderful and was just an overall enjoyable evening. We are never disappointed here.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great for a Business DinnerFrankBDined on 9/16/2014Food was great, had the mixed seafood grill which I would heartily recommend. Service was very good. The place is looking a little run down.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- classic but out of datekrosetDined on 9/14/2014the food was ok. for the price, not ok. very basic and somewhat poorly prepared, i.e. the pasta was overcooked, the lobster bisque didn't taste of lobster, and it had no lobster within and the truffle oil float was overwhelming. salads were overdressed. the prices were very high for the quality of the ingredients. the classic dishes weren't really classically prepared. sent a couple of things back and they were never credited to our over $400 bill.
- Mixed MessageFrustratedDined on 9/14/2014This was a business dinner with new Japanese clients who were staying at the nearby Fairmont Hotel. The restaurant was very crowded but our table was ready. Service was good as was the bread and dessert, but the entrees were very disappointing. (My pasta tasted like it had just been unfrozen.)
- Not the best Il Fornaio experienceOperadinerDined on 9/14/2014Always a problem here, the AC meant that we were sitting in a cool breeze, with the air cooling our food as well as ourselves. We were seated rapidly, despite being in the "after opera matinee" rush. Our choice of wine was not available (a dry white), and we were offered a substitute, without being given time to taste it. We decided that it was too sweet and perfume. Once we attacked the waiter's attention, it was immediately replaced by our second choice. This was better, but not chilled enough to our liking. The food was good, though we were put off by the green tinge to the mussels in the seafood pasta. In the UK this is a sign that they are "off". Apparently not so in CA. The waiter's advice on the food was spot on and excellent.
- Nostalgic Dining ExperienceOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/14/2014It was nice to see how Downtown SJ has grown and advance,and the St Claire Hotel and the restaurant within Il Fornaio makes it proud and elegant. Nice dinning experience for the elderly and young. Nice mix.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- RushingComfortZoneVIPDined on 9/14/2014Unfortunately, we arrived late and had tickets to one of the last shows for Wicked. There were 7 of us, including 3 children and a 90+ senior. We all wished we had time to sit and enjoy the food and ambiance. But, the wait team was very respectful of our time constraints and service piping hot food in a jiffy that tasted very good. We'll have to return again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- hostess and waiter were greathpycmprDined on 9/13/2014The hostess was able to accommodate a party of 7 thirty minutes earlier than the scheduled reservation,which was appreciated as we were with our aging parents. She was pleasant even though the restaurant was busy and crowded. The waiter was also outstanding and helpful. Great personality and made good suggestions.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sea bassCasualDinerDined on 9/11/2014I ordered sea bass and I doubt that it was sea bass. The staff admitted it was not Chilean sea bass. Nice preparation but poor quality of fish - barely edible. I have eaten at the Palo Alto and San Jose locations many times but I will never return to the San Jose location. I have zero tolerance for restaurants serving poor quality seafood.Special Features:
- Bread and service were excellentNatiVIPDined on 9/9/2014Pasta and salad came out quickly which was a pleasant surprise but they were both bland. So disappointed!
- Molto Bene!foodfriendlyDined on 9/9/2014I love Il Fornaio. The menu is interesting and the wait staff helpful and efficient. The restaurant is beautiful and lively. I especially enjoyed the sea bass asparagus saffron risotto. The fish was perfectly cooked, and tender asparagus and grape tomatoes were a lovely contrast to the saffron rice. Great place for a lingering meal or before a show. Wait staff asked if we were headed to a performance and made sure we were served, without feeling rushed, with time to spare. Great dining experience all around.Special Features:
- Poor Service-Food sent backOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 9/7/2014Came here for brunch before a performance of Wicked downtown, service was poor, eggs had to be sent back to get corrected and generally a bad experience. Dissapointing since we have been to other locations many times with no issuse. Must have been a bad day.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 9/6/2014The service was good and fast (almost too fast) but at least we had time to enjoy our meal and finish leisurely before going to the opera. Last time we were here we waited and waited and wondered if we would finish in time. So the chef and service has improved. The lobster bisque was not tasty.
- Excellent as alwaysCynthiaCDined on 9/6/2014Our server asked right away if we were there prior to a show (we were) so she could make sure we were out on time. She gave us excellent suggestions for food, and the new dishes were EXCELLENT. Our only complaint was the Butternut Squash Ravioli was only warm while the pesto pasta was piping hot - but all were still delicious including wine, coffee and dessert. Server was attentive, food was brought quickly, we never felt rushed, and were were out in time for opening night at the opera.Special Features:
- FootLooseVIPDined on 9/6/2014Service was outstanding. Be sure to sit in Rumi's section.Special Features:
- Food PoorOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/5/2014Service great! Food was horrible. This restaurant has gone down hill. Sorry to right this review but we all were not happy with the food.
- Waited way too long for our foodOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 9/5/2014We waited a while for our food. There was a show going on downtown and i think people attending the show were given preference. I said "I think," can't confirm that. I ordered the sea bass and it was raw in the middle. My order wasn't comp'd but we were offered free dessert. A little disappointing. Our server did a good job.
- Location worksdocvicDined on 9/3/2014Definitely this restaurant capitalizes on its location...not a keeper.
- So disappointing!FoodLoverVIPDined on 9/3/2014We have eaten at Il Fornaio in Seattle many times, and consider it one of our favorite go to spots for a consistently delicious and enjoyable meal. We now live in San Jose, but expected to be equally as pleased in choosing the location here. While the service was fine (only mixed up one dish and immediately fixed it), the food was incredibly disappointing. One of the things that has always impressed me is that while Il Fornaio is considered a 'chain', it never felt like one...until this experience. Pasta was overcooked, vodka sauce (usually, my favorite), was watery, steak, while tender and perfectly cooked, lacked flavor. The salad was the best part of my meal. Considering we 'splurged' for this special occasion...unfortunate experience.
- Always great512damonVIPDined on 9/1/2014My wife and I decided we like Il Fornaio over Original Joe's. Joe's may have the cooler brand, but Il Fornaio has a fresher menu, better service, and equally if not better food. Joe's get stale with the exact same menu for years and years.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/1/2014While the food and atmosphere were excellent, the service was practically non-existent. The servers were courteous and professional, but nowhere to be found, seemed to always be waiting for them to return to the table.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ExcellentGeorgeVIPDined on 8/30/2014We dined here (again), this time an early dinner after a matinee performance of Wicked. Food and service were excellent as usual. The restaurant was nearly full by the time we left, which is always a good sign.Special Features:
- Formerly great, now bland foodOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 8/29/2014Great setting and the food used to be phenomenal. My wife and I took my college-aged son for his birthday. All 3 of us had different dishes, 2 from the specials and one from their normal menu. All of us agreed that our food was well prepared, beautifully plated, and very bland. The red sauce on the pasta tasted like just plain tomato; the fish was well cooked but tasteless with no flavor to the sauce, and the meat dish was the same. The breads are great and we used to love this place, but we won't be back. Too many other great options to choose from.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 8/29/2014Even tho it's a chain, Il Fornaio is still a very good Italian eatery....and each location is different. We've dined at most of their Bay Area restaurants and haveen disappointed. Our most recent pre-theater dinner in San Jose was no exception. And it's close to CPA.
- Always excellent ...OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/27/2014You simply can't go wrong here ... the venue is lovely, the service attentive, the menu varied and expertly prepared, the wine list is thoughtful, and the overall attention to detail and willingness to "go the extra mile" is palpable.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dining at the St. ClaireiolavolaVIPDined on 8/27/2014We had a very good meal. The service was wonderful, the ambiance lovely and we were asked if we needed to be somewhere at a specific time so that they could accommocate us in a timely manner. I have been to this restaurant numerous times and have never been disappointed in their food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Had a great time but........BillybassoonDined on 8/22/2014Had a marvelous dinner celebrating daughters birthday. Great wine, great food and tiramasu to die for. Great ambience. Only disappointment is that a number of guests dress like they are going out to McDonalds. Il Fornaio Is a classy place but seeing an overweight guy sitting in the waiting area dressed in a wife beater tee shirt was not appetizing. How about "no sleeves on shirt, no service."Special Features:
- My Favorite Il Fornio SiteOpenTable Diner Since 2004Dined on 8/21/2014Delicious Italian food, wonderful service, and old world atmosphere matching St. Claire. Have tried the Il Fornio chain at most of their Bay Area locations and Las Vegas. The team, food, and service always is above a notch from the other locations.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect pre-show dinnerJenLDDined on 8/20/2014The restaurant is located inside the historic and beautiful Hotel St. Claire. The bread, pasta and pizza were terrific and the service very considerate of our wish to make an 8pm show.Special Features:
- disappointed in one of our old favsmjhy2kDined on 8/17/2014This has always been a good place to eat. Our last visit was not. Pasta was cold! Even after being told the plate is hot it just came out of our pizza oven. The plate wasn't hot. Water tasted like chlorine even after the second glass that the waiter brought. He finally brought me bottled water (complimentary) The service was ok, but we could tell the servers were stretched with no bus help. Our table was on a very busy, narrow isle. We probably won't go back.
- After Theater DinnerOutAndAboutDined on 8/17/2014Il Fornaio was the perfect restaurant choice after a California Theater matinee. The table selection was honored and reservation made flexible due to the show's end. Despite a long line, we were immediately seated and then enjoyed a pre-arranged Proseco toast. Our waiter was gracious and well informed about the menu, even describing the peperocino sauce made for the Petto Di Pollo dish. The food arrived hot and delicious. Only the service by the staff assistants was sorely lacking. Orders for lemon and iced tea were forgotten despite numerous reminders and waiter apologies. At the end of our dinner a complimentary 90th birthday dessert complete with candles arrived. It was a perfect ending for a special celebration.Special Features:
- Slow service & overcooked appetizerJust4dinnerDined on 8/17/2014We were shown to a nice table, but we were confused over who our waiter was. The waiter we ended up with was not very attentive and we had long waits between items served. We started with calamari, which seemed to take a long time in coming. It was overcooked and the tubes and tentacles were quite small and slightly burnt, not what I expected. While strolling to the restroom, I noticed two ladies seated at a table with a plate of calamari, large pieces cooked to a light golden brown, the way I am used to seeing. I noticed other tables who had arrived after us being served, but we continued to wait. The entree was fine, decent portions. We never had dessert, it took 15 min for the waiter to bring dessert menus and we ran out of time.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 8/16/2014It's a little expensive, but the food and service were very good. The menu, however is limited and could be expanded to include some ordinary Italian dishes.Special Features:

MILWAUKEE — At the turn of the 20th century, Milwaukee was in its heyday. Its thriving breweries, tanneries and manufacturers provided good jobs, and its many tradespeople and craftsmen built quality housing.
Some of the houses were more distinctive than others. In fact, some were downright amazing and remain showpieces.
"We don't have that penchant for replacement that other cities have," explained H. Russell Zimmermann, a longtime architectural historian who wrote "Magnificent Milwaukee: Architectural Treasures, 1850-1920."
"Instead we appreciate, even celebrate, our architectural gems," he said.
Some of those gems of the past can be toured and appreciated by the public.
"Visiting an old mansion or two is an excellent reason to visit Milwaukee," Zimmermann said. "They provide a wonderful glimpse of how life used to be."
The Pabst Mansion is the grandest and best known of Milwaukee's remaining mansions. Constructed from 1889 to 1892, the Flemish Renaissance Revival-style home just west of downtown was built for Capt. Frederick Pabst, a sea captain who became a beer baron, philanthropist and patron of the arts.
The Pabst family lived in the 20,000-square-foot house for just a short time. The captain died in 1904 and his wife two years later. The Milwaukee Archdiocese bought it for use as the archbishop's residence until it was sold in the mid-1970s.
"We have been doing nothing but restoring it since then," said Dawn Day Hourigan, executive director, who estimated that 80 percent of the furnishings were from the Pabst family.
The dining room table is set as if dinner is about to be served. Each fireplace and mantel is more impressive than the next. The library, with its rich woodwork, appears to be waiting for Capt. Pabst and his guests to enjoy a cigar after dinner.
The mansion is open daily except for major holidays and Mondays from mid-January through February. Guided tours are available.
The Kneeland-Walker House in Wauwatosa is just a few minutes' drive west of downtown. The Queen Anne Victorian was built in 1890 for Norman Kneeland, a manufacturer and farmer. He and his wife lived there with four of their seven children.
In 1917 it was purchased by Emery Walker, vice president of the Kieckhefer Box Co., who also was an engineer and inventor. It remained in that family until 1987, when it was purchased as the headquarters for the Wauwatosa Historical Society. It now serves as a center for community events and is open for research.
"The restoration has been ongoing," said Janel Ruzicka, executive director, adding that starting this month the mansion will be open for tours on the third Saturday of each month.
The Schuster Mansion was built in 1891 for tobacco merchant George Schuster. Sometimes called the "Red Castle," the 23-room, 8,000-square-foot home is made of red sandstone, brick and terra cotta — "quite a stunning combination," Zimmermann said.
The house stayed in the Schuster family until 1924, when it was converted into luxury apartments. Now a bed-and-breakfast, the three-story home west of downtown is owned by Rick and Laura Sue Mosier, who bought it in 2008 and have restored and furnished it with Victorian antiques and wallpapers.
"The real saving grace of the home is that it had been put to good use as an apartment building for all those years, so it was saved from the wrecking ball," said Laura Sue Mosier.
Now as many as 26 people a night can stay in the B&B in the many rooms and suites, most with their own bathroom. The Mosiers live on the third floor and have done most of the renovation.
For those who would like to see the mansion but not necessarily stay as a guest, Mosier serves Victorian high tea on the first Thursday of the month. Reservations are required.

Closed refinance loan. Warrenton, VA
The agent that I worked with Carmen Mollica was very kind and knowledgeable. Through our conversations I could tell that he had my best interest in mind. He was reassuring and was able to answer my questions no matter how trivial I thought they may be. He was very responsive and always available.

Closed refinance loan. Chester, NY
This was not our first re-finance, but it was our first re-finance with Home Finance of America. Service was absolutely top-notch - all information was provided up front (needed documents, fees, etc.) - no surprises at any point in the process. Closing was faster than I could have ever expected. All inquiries were answered promptly and professionally. We gave them what they needed (documents, etc.) when they wanted it and in return, they gave us a hassle free refinance. We would definitely use them again.… MoreLess

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Moving to this school was the best decision we ever made! My children are challenged and take school very seriously. They expect exceptional, respectful and dedicated students - mine took the challenge and ran with it. They came from our local school and were bored, bullied and obsessed with clothing brands. They see CHPCS as a privledge to attend. Please check us out if you are serious about your children's education.
Academics is stressed, yet not at the expense of the formation of the whole child. High standards for learning provide a solid foundation as practical application is taught in conjunction to maximize the talents of each student as unique individuals with unique talents. As per the dress code, there are many options and we've appreciated the lack of drama involved in our children not having to buy the most chic clothing to be either accepted or draw their confidence. Director Denman is open minded, yet holds the school to a high standard which continues to prove its prowess in both academics and forming responsible, confident individuals. This school should be given strong consideration by any parent looking to give their child the best chance to maximize their academic and individual potential.
We pulled our child from this school before she even attended as they refused to work with us regarding one item on the dress code and how it would aggravate a skin condition our child has. We were told that other people at the school had a similar condition and they just put up with it. No child should have to 'put up with' an aggravated skin condition just to satisfy this school's rigid and outdated dress requirements. If this school is that inflexible over a health condition, it may be safe to assume that they are equally inflexible on other issues as well. I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone.
Cascade Heights is an outstanding school. This public school enrolls students via a lottery. The teachers are committed, creative and exceptional. Families are dedicated to school choice and an expectation of excellence, appropriate behavior and volunteering. The curriculum is demanding and thorough, providing a well rounded and in depth education. Funding of this charter school is about 45% less per child than traditional schools in the district, yet overall state/federal test scores are 20% or more higher.
I love that most every parent are hands on in our childrens education. It shows in the projects they are able to do and fieldtrips they attend.
I love this school! All the teachers I've had are great. I hope to be here till 8th grade. Everyone are friendly. This school is awesome.
This school is really dedicated to fitting every single child's needs. The teachers and faculty are very friendly and are there to help you learn. From different math classes to a variety of electives this school is the way to go.
Its a wonderful school! I love the education I get here!
This is a fantastic school. The academic quality is outstanding, the teachers, staff, and administration are very caring, helpful, and qualified. I know my child is receiving an outstanding education, and is being prepared for greatness.

how far have you walked for men who've never held your feet in their laps?
how often have you bartered with bone, only to sell yourself short?
why do you find the unavailable so alluring? where did it begin? what went wrong? and who made you feel so worthless?
if they wanted you, wouldn't they have chosen you?all this time, you were begging for love silently, thinking they couldn't hear you, but they smelt it on you,
you must have known that they could taste the desperate on your skin?
and what about the others that would do anything for you, why did you make them love you until you could not stand it?
how are you both of these women, both flighty and needful?
where did you learn this, to want what does not want you?
where did you learn this, to leave those that want to stay?
Warsan Shire
you are a horse running alone
and he tries to tame you
compares you to an impossible highway
to a burning house
says you are blinding him
that he could never leave you
forget you
want anything but you
you dizzy him, you are unbearable
every woman before or after you
is doused in your name
you fill his mouth
his teeth ache with memory of taste
his body just a long shadow seeking yours
but you are always too intense
frightening in the way you want him
unashamed and sacrificial
he tells you that no man can live up to the one who
lives in your head
and you tried to change didn't you?
closed your mouth more
tried to be softer
less volatile, less awake
but even when sleeping you could feel
him traveling away from you in his dreams
so what did you want to do love
split his head open?
you can't make homes out of human beings
someone should have already told you that
and if he wants to leave
then let him leave
you are terrifying
and strange and beautiful
something not everyone knows how to love
Warsan Shire

"We're all walking around with these glossy eyes.'I'm just tired,' we say. But you know what? It's bullshit. Yes, we are tired, but it's not all from lack of sleep. We are tired of waking up with nothing to look forward to, tired of going to bed exhausted after doing a million things we find no enjoyment in doing. We're tired of this void, this emptiness that looms over us even though our days are packed. We're tired of the loneliness that presses down on us even though we're surrounded by dozens of people. So why can't we just say it? Humans are so afraid to look into each other's eyes and say, 'I am unhappy, I am broken, I am hopeless and fallible.' We've been conditioned to associate pain with weakness, sadness with coldness, loneliness with unworthiness, difference with disease, as if these feelings are contagious, as if ambivalence is something not to be felt but to be feared. Well, I say screw all of that. Screw forced smiles and polite handshakes and I'm fine, thank yous. Screw the fear of crying in a public place, screw the fake chipper voice, screw the lies we spit out to cover up our problems. We are humans. We are meant to feel. To feel everything and to feel it all openly. We are not metal—we are flesh and bone. Our boiled blood courses through our cold, clammy hands. We are intricate and beautiful and we should never hide our human parts, because if we do, then what's left to show?"

The AR-15 is a popular customizable semi-automatic weapon, and at Chosin Firearms we sell all the AR-15 and AR-15 style brands. Used by law enforcement and the military; the AR-15 is a dependable firearm built to last. In the 60s, the US Army adopted it as their standard weapon calling it the M16.
We carry several manufacturers of the AR-15 including: DPMS (or Defense Procurement Manufacturing Services), Remington, Colt, Ruger, Bushmaster, Armalite (the M-15 A2 and M-15), Brownells, Rock River Arms, Smith & Wesson, Barrett, Olympic Arms, Les Baer, LWRC Industries, Wilson, Double Star, POF, Sabre Defence Weapons, Yankee Hill Machine, Rainer, Panther Arms, and Stag Arms.
When sold to the general public and law enforcement, no matter the brand, it is called the AR-15. The configuration of the AR-15 is slightly different when it's sold to civilians, mostly because the BAFTE wants to prevent the rifles from being converted to fully automatic weapons. Today, because of its popularity, there are many accessories for the AR-15, and Chosin Firearms has a wide selection to modify your weapon. We can even help you customize to an "AR-15 style pistol"; a modified version sold by Olympics Arms, Atlantic Arms, and Rock River Arms. Stop by or give us a call to get your customized or standard AR-15 from Chosin Firearms.
