Bakeries >Alon's
1394 N Highland Ave NE, Atlanta, GA | Directions 3030633.793273 -84.351475
Mon-Fri, 7am-9pm; Sat, 8am-9pm; Sun, 9am-4pm
Neighborhoods: Morningside-Lenox Park, Northeast, Northeast
Whether you're in the mood for something sweet or something savory, Alon's is your answer to all things gourmet, homemade & more. Be sure to try any of their freshly made cakes and sandwiches, in addition to their carrot cake and raspberry lychee macarons!
Great meats and baked goods; their rack of lamb sandwich is a must order for any meat lover!
Alon's in Dunwoody has an incredible wine bar. No matter what your preferences are they always have something for you. In addition to the great wine selection, they also offer amazing craft beers. Check out the wine and beer selection to take home too. The prices are really competitive.
Wine tastings are every month with paired artisan cheeses. They are always $20 and scheduled on the closest Thursday to the 15th of each month.
Do not cater from Alon's unless you want undercooked and cold food to arrive late and you don't really need the condiments and accessories they state come with the order. Apologies are nice but my event was more stressful than it should have been and I spent way too much money for all the mistakes. Now I would take a gift certificate to eat lunch there but never again will I cater. NEVER
Alons is great. I'd get The blueberry muffin for breakfast the creme brûlée for desert and the tomato basil soup for lunch.
Dunwoody Store - Consistently Horrible Service – The service at the prepared food counter is Horrible. I have complained to the owners twice now. This past Sunday wanted to try something before purchasing. This is customary. But, the guy behind the counter said "no". I asked him for his name - he said "raymond". But, come to find out that wasn't his name. I spoke with the manager on duty about it and all he said was "it is too spicy for you". That's the response you get from the MANAGER!!! Yikes!!! Was expecting an appology and let me help you out, but never got it. called the owners again and was told they didn't know a Raymond. I plan to find this guy's name and expose his nastiness to the world. Apparently, they don't get it - and it does affect the profits of their business. Poor service gets noted and people spend their hard earned $$$ somewhere else. Must be they have more business than they need. The poor service I have seen is to the manager level. How do you quantify lost revenue? Well, I have friends that live near both locations and they don't go there anymore. I can see why. The really need to work on their service problems.
Hmmm.. – I like going in to check-out the international items that they have on the shelves and their desserts are very good...but, a few months ago I bought a bag of pita bread and when I got it home, the pitas were moldy. So, I decided that I wouldn't ever go back. Then a couple of weekends ago, I drove by and thought, let me try going in again. This time it was the service that was terrible. The people behind the counter had no idea what they were doing. Customers were complaining that their orders were wrong and I ordered 2 cups of soup with rolls and after 15 minutes, I asked the girl behind the counter about the order and her response was not very nice. How long does it take to serve 2 cups of soup from the pots?? Considering the prices they charge for lunch items, they have ridiculous and rude service. Never again.
Good sweets – Desserts here are really good
AWESOME – Loove the croissants and lattes...yummy goodies to spoil yourself with!
A Fantastic Euro-style bakery – As close as Atlanta has to a European-style bakery, Alon's offers up fresh breads, cheeses, meats, sandwiches, and prepared foods to its Morningside neighbors. Inside, different areas house different products. There is a cheese case, a wine area, and cases for salads and meats to eat in or take out. Grab a butcher paper wrapped mozzarella, sun dried tomato, and arugula sandwich on focaccia, or a cup of the ever changing soup du jour menu (grab the tomato-basil if available). Outside are wicker seats and tiny tables to chow down atop the white paper bags the food is stuffed in.
5 stars – I love this place! They have the best cookies and sandwiches in Atlanta. It can be a little pricey but as a whole the place is amzing.

Fate of pets adds to stress of storm survivors
NEW YORK (AP) — Kate and Warren Sherwood had to think quickly about what to take when Superstorm Sandy's surge flooded their barrier island and caused five houses on their block to burn to the ground. Luckily for their two black cats, Schwartz and Scooter, their pets were a priority.
But the narrow escape wasn't the end of the road for the felines. Their owners took refuge at a hotel that didn't accept cats.

Pros – you will learn respect and honor and receive respect and honor when you are finished. You will receive benefits from the army post serving like they'll pay for some of your college, sometimes they will set you up for a job, health care and all that.
Cons – you could be killed, you could be taken hostage, putting your family through the stress of hoping you'll survive, dealing with post-traumatic stress, seeing your friends die, not being near the ones you love.
Advice to Senior Management – Talk to your family about it, talk to recruiters but ultimately it's your life so you have to be the one to choose. Good luck
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

A classic example of 1930s Streamline Moderne architecture in a Santa Cruz, California house I photographed in 1984, showing a number of characteristic elements: porthole and corner windows, the rounded edge of the entryway, the flat roof and white stucco surfaces. Unfortunately, the current

shows it's acquired a color scheme not in keeping with the spirit of the style. A 35mm Kodacolor negative.

Lounges >The Garage
1199 Beck St, Salt Lake City, UT | Directions 8410340.793904 -111.903881
Mon-Sun: 11am-2am
Neighborhoods: Capitol Hill
Great atmosphere, laid back fun – My buddies and I came across this place when our first choice was too overcrowded. Glad we did! We had a great time!
It was a lot of fun. A great mix of people of all walks of life. Great low-key music from a DJ (who actually used vinyl records!!).
Beer and drink prices were very reasonable. Can't wait to return when it's warmer so we can enjoy the outside deck area.
Take a Chance.... – This little bar was so much fun! I loved the deck! The food was so good and the remodel looks great! The staff was friendly and fun! Take a chance on this one! It could be your new favorite place to play!
Nice Place – Ive been in a few times and really like the NO DRAMA atmosphere. Everybody is very nice and a drink is easy to get. Definitly an older crowd for regulars so you dont have to worry about the thug's and punks causing problems with their liquid muscles.
Seems like they have done a lot of remodeling and now there is an outside area also. They have a blind draw dart game every Fri. night at seven that anyone can come and play. I had a great time learning the game and playing.
Great place to relax and escape the drama of a "club".
not going to be the same – Enter at your own risk. Utah laws are tough, and it has tainted the experience of a once nice little place--as it is doing with all "hometown" clubs like this.
they are going to eat us – In reading the description of Rose's Jimax Lounge I was very excited to check it out. I love hole in the wall bars, but you would have to cut me up and serve me as a sloppy joe in order to get me back in the door. I have never been treated so horrible in my life. As our small group of friends walked in the door, we were informed rather loudly that, "hey this is a private club." Our response okay. then the regulars asked us if we were cops. The atmosphere was so hostile that we left without buying a membership. So if you have read the review of Rose's don't believe it. The basic message we recieved was, " Your not welcome here."
Friendly, spacious locals joint under the smoke stacks of the Beck Street oil refineries. – The Scene
A former watering hole for the railroads, this out-of-way private club in the industrial no-man's-land of Beck Street is a real diamond in the rough. Jimax provides classic no-messin-around bar atmosphere with its high ceiling, wood paneling and slow ceiling fans. A pool table, half a dozen dartboards, Golden Tee and a big screen TV are provided for late-night barroom Olympics.
The Crowd
The crowd's friendly, the drinks are cheap, and the good tunes are kept low enough that you can hear who you're talking to. A tight crowd of regulars hangs around the bar but there are plenty of tables and a semi-private nook in one corner. Don't be put off by the location, Jimax offers a friendly welcome to anyone who happens to wander in thirsty.
The Verdict
Put this friendly, off-the-beaten-path watering hole on your to-do list.

GLUTEN FREE - Bring Your Own Soy Sauce !!! – Awesome family owned restaurant. My girlfriend has Celiac disease, so we always bring our own soy sauce and the owners are always very happy to cook Gluten free items just for her.
The menu has a wide offering, with your traditional American Chinese items, however they also have a traditional Chinese menu too, which is very good.
Don't be fooled by the looklocation. Do yourself a favor and stop by!
Great Authentic Chinese Food – Try the Super Hot Beef Tripe. I'm from Toronto, and had to take some of this dish back to Toronto with me, it was so tasty.
Best Chinese Food in Durham! – China Palace is by far the best chinese restaurant in Durham. You can ask for no msg in just about any dish. The food is cooked to order and if you're lucky and live close enough, they have fast, friendly delivery to your door. LOVE this place!!
the worst hunan chicken ever – This place has been very good and very bad. I have had some dishes that have so much bitter, chopped garlic from a jar that I have had to throw the whole thing out. This happened more than once (I had forgotten about the first incident). I will never make that mistake again, I can't afford to. Yuk.
fresh and tasty – I went here on a recommendation. I haven't had any excellent chinese food in the triangle. The food at China Palace was fresh and well-prepared. Vegetables crispy. I don't think they use MSG. Dumplings were homemade. Steer away from wonton soup, because they seemed to have phoned in the preparation of that dish. But will definitely be my new go-to place.
Positively surprized – As a Japanese, I have so low expectation in Chinese food in the US. Although, I have eaten pretty good chinese food in SF and NY. They were still OK compare to the ones in ASIA. NC is so terrible about authentic asian food. There are mainly OK aisan fusion restaurants. I just tried China Palace first time today, and the entry I order (Szechuan egg plant) was excellent. Absolutely the best one I have ever tried in NC. I can not compare restaurant as a whole to any other restaurant without eating other menu, but I can already recomend you for the egg plant. Weitless was very friendly too. I will go back and update this review for other menu.
Some of the reviews complain about egg roll and hot and sour soup. If you like these menu, do not go to authentic or traditional chinese place. Go to fusion place. These menus are basically americanized menus.
Authentic and hard to beat in the Triangle!!! – I have eaten Chinese all the way from Beijing and Hong Kong to Chinatowns far and wide in the U.S. and Canada. Let's just say I love Chinese food. Since my family discovered China Palace, we go at least every 2-3 weeks. I love the special Chinese menu, while my wife swears by the sesame chicken. I have rarely if ever been disappointed by anything I have had there. The service is usually fast and attentive. There are a few decent chain type places in this area, but what was missing for me until I found China Palace was that good old, authentic, kind of like being in China experience, which you can get in places like New York. I highly recommend it!!! There is nowhere better around here for Chinese food.
Terrible! Couldn't eat the food. DON'T BOTHER – After the reviews we were shocked. The best thing was the fortune cookie. Ordered three entrees, one was so bad (tasted like it had Comet in it) we sent it back. Hot & sour soup tasted tinny. Egg rolls mushy inside and overcooked. Insult to injury was the bizarre behavior after we sent back the sizzle-platter chef's special steak ... first the waitress came back and told us the oil was checked and it was 'OK'. Eventually she came back and said they had decided to not charge us for the entree we didn't eat! (We hadn't ordered a replacement... appetite was gone.) As we paid for the meal the (we think) owner told us the chef checked it out and the beef fat was not spoiled! "Sorry you no like it." She then explained that they were not going to charge us for it repeatedly until we thanked her for not charging for inedible food. Entrees we ate we average at best.
Don't let the outside fool you! – The first dish I tried was some wide rice noodle soup. It was ok. But we came back and tried some other things. Some tofu dish and shredded pork and tofu dish. This place rocks. I sat there and gave my dish thumbs up. It probably looked weird to see some dude giving thumbs up to a dish, but it was that good.
Just Average – We checked it out after a glowing review in the N & O. I was a bit disappointed after they set the bar so high. The entrees were good but stay away from the hot and sour soup and egg rolls. The egg rolls were over fried with mushy cabbage inside. The soup really was not good. The price is reasonable but again, it was just average.

A $15,000 reward is being offered for the arrest and conviction of the person or group of people responsible for setting a series of fires on the Temple University campus earlier this week.
According to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, a reward of up to $5,000 is being offered by the Philadelphia Field Division of the ATF and a reward of up to $10,000 is now being offered by the L.F. Driscoll Company.
"Acts of arson are dangerous crimes and threaten the community," ATF Philadelphia Field Division Acting Special Agent in Charge Donald Robinson said in a statement.
"We are asking the public to provide any information that would lead investigators to those responsible for these arsons."
Investigators say the arson fires were set on February 11 and 12 at the tower building under construction on Temple's campus. The fires were set on five different floors of the building over a two-day period.
ATF investigators say the fires resulted in $100,000 in property damages.

Greg Kot
11:23 PM CDT, July 20, 2013
Here's Day 2 of the Pitchfork Music Festival in Union Park. The park was none the worse for wear with Friday's rain and it was cooler yet sunny early although the rain did come again for the headliners. But on Saturday, the bands played on. Greg Kot (GK) and Bob Gendron (BG) take you through Saturday's lineup.
1:25 p.m.: Vancouver punk quartet White Lung seemed like a good way to wake up the audience at the crack of 1 p.m., but the band never quite comes off robot mode. The desultory audience is only mildly responsive, and the musicians stalk off stage as if rushing to catch a cab on Ashland Avenue. Not an auspicious start. Fortunately, I'm able to wonder over in time to catch the last part of KEN Mode's set, and the Canadian metal heads deliver the early-afternoon hangover cure. With a guitar set on the "locust invasion" setting, this is a good, old-fashioned pummeling. (GK)
1:31 p.m.: A rare moment of subtlety occurs during KEN Mode's blunt-force assault of a set. Vocalist/guitarist Jesse Matthewson whispers into the microphone as his mates dial down the volume. Then, boom! The hardcore metal trio resumes its litany of strangulating vocals, scraping grind and testosterone-rich heaviness. It's one way to start a long day. Anyone who's hungover is now no longer. Rife with dissatisfaction and anger, KEN Mode lives up to its acronym: Kill Everything Now. Lyrics are incomprehensible, save for a few repeated refrains ("It don't matter anymore," "Religion is a cancer") that underline the band's attitude. Matthewson barks into the mic while bending his knees and thrusting his shoulders forward. He's a wrestler ready to attack any opponent daring to take him on. Who knew Canadians were so torqued? Suffice it to say at the Winnipeg threesome comes from the opposite side of the tracks than where fellow hometown native and polite Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews grew up. (BG)
1:52 p.m.: Pissed Jeans front man Matt Korvette engages in a shoving match with guitarist Bradley Fry as each member tries to claim the same space and mug for the crowd. For the Pennsylvania noise-rock band, the playfulness is part of a wildly humorous, enjoyably off-the-cuff performance in which nothing is sacred. This is the band with which you want to go to a bar and have a few rounds. Korvette cleverly lampoons a festival corporate sponsor, VIP privilege, social media addiction, inflated rock-star egos and headliners that demand huge chunks of money to go onstage and play. His devious antics are reminiscent of those of legendary Jesus Lizard singer David Yow, but while the latter opted for nudity, dementedness and physical contact with the audience, Korvette channels his inner freak with crazy-legs dance moves, bored poses and self-deprecating diva vogueing. At one point,he unconsciously rubs his hands all over his chest, rips his shirt and calls for a new tank top. Yet it's a huge mistake to think Pissed Jeans a joke. The quartet brings the rock via swerving, spindly, thudding, trashy fare choked with industrial pollution, sinister howls and sludge-crusted riffs. No song titles are announced, and it's not even clear if Korvette knows the plan without consulting his drummer. The singer doesn't miss a beat or a chance to offer comedic relief. "Take all of my faults and twist them in your head until I look like a sweet and thoughtful man," he instructs on the bruising "Romanticize Me," one of several tunes addressing the bummers of getting older, becoming increasingly unattractive and recognizing the realities of being confined to office-cubicle work. Those reasons are as good as any get weird, silly and loud. Yow would be proud. (BG)
2:02 p.m.: Julia Holter tries to be as delicate as possible, as if to distance herself as much as she can from the antics of Pissed Jeans, which is playing simultaneously. While the banter and aggression of Pissed Jeans makes me miss The Jesus Lizard's David Yow even more, Holter provides a welcome contrast. She delivers a sweet and sour mix of billowy chord progressions and string and saxophone atmospherics with her quintet. Songs don't end so much as drift off, swallowed by the Ashland Avenue traffic behind her. On one piece, she does a scat-like vocal over skittering sax, then adds bell-like progressions on her keyboard. It's rhythmic yet light, as if she's dancing on a pond. (GK)
2:44 p.m.: Phosphorescent provides the ideal soundtrack for fans sprawled out on blankets, zoned out and soaking in the sun. The six-piece band operates at two speeds--mellow, and even mellower--while pursuing chilled-out folk rock and country-tinged Americana. Missing in action are the horn arrangements that supply the group's recent record with a cantina vibe. Two pianos serve as admirable substitutes, but the lazy clip-clop of "Terror in the Canyons (The Wounded Master)" and spacey desert atmosphere on "Song for Zula" cry out for headphone listening. Leader Matthew Houck puts a bit of voltage into "Ride On/Right On" with a hiccuped vocal and catchy hook, yet the band dials the tempo back to lazy and hazy before any momentum can be sustained. Wrong decision. (BG)
2:52 p.m.: Parquet Courts piles songs together like bumper cars, with barely a pause between. The quartet explores the balance of exhilaration and anxiety on their excellent "Light Up Gold" album, and then amplifies it. The guitar interplay reaches Television-like levels of twisting, turning ballet, the tones spiraling and crashing in a give-and-take of melody and dissonance. It's a thrilling set, and sure to be one of the festival's highlights. (GK)
3:29 p.m.: ...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of the Dead seizes the opportunity to premier a handful of songs it is currently recording for a new album. Stripped-down and straight-ahead, they harken back to the collective's fiery early material. If any artist here deserves an award for preservation, it's the Austin crew. Overcoming myriad lineup changes, impossible hype and an ill-advised flirtation with prog, the quartet displays why it's still around nearly 20 years after its genesis and playing at a cutting-edge fest, to boot. A rock band is nothing without a hard-hitting drummer, and the Trail of the Dead have not one but two in the fold, as members switch between guitar and the trap kit. Desperation and intensity remain hallmarks, and while the lyrics occasionally conjure the density of a preachy narrative found in a heavy-handed graphic novel, concentrating on the rhythms is all the reward one needs. (BG)
3:58 p.m.: From the state that produced Limp Bizkit and cookie-monster death-metal vocals comes Florida-based Merchandise, whose pretender sound is equally forgettable. Clad in a long-sleeved leopard-print button-down shirt, vocalist/guitarist Carson Cox does his best Morrissey impression, complete with a badly rendered faux British accent. His cohorts also time-warped in from the 1980s, with the immobile bassist looking like he's trying out for a Psychedelic Furs reunion. Ironically, Merchandise represents much of what Pissed Jeans railed against hours earlier. The group's swimmy, bland cross between dream- and synth-pop is notable only for how well it would fit in as background music to a "Risky Business" remake. It takes the quartet a full two minutes to tune for one song, and when the latter finally arrives, it's clear that if you know the Cure or Smiths, you've heard it all--in superior renditions--before. (BG)
4:45 p.m.: During "Hit Me," Savages drummer Fay Milton bashes her cymbal repeatedly, hitting it so hard that it appears she has some kind of vendetta against it. The British quartet brings that same intensity to every song it performs, a severe, black-clad purpose that translates as presence, drama without resorting to theatrical cliches. That's a rare quality in any band, let alone one so relatively young -- the foursome played its first gig in January 2012 and only a few weeks ago released its first studio album. But the puzzle pieces of greatness are already evident and coming together, as this performance demonstrates: the singer Jehnny Beth's twitchy severity and biting phrasing; Gemma Thompson's poltergeist-like guitar, darting in and out of songs, reshaping itself with each note; Ayse Hassan's menacing, frequently overwhelming bass lines; Milton's bruising mastery of rhythm. The band leaves the stage not on a triumphant note of celebration, but with the disturbing psychodrama of "Hit Me" and the seething "Husbands." (GK)
5:03 p.m.: Metz singer/guitarist Alex Edkins looks like he's about to faint. The Toronto trio is barely 15 minutes into its set but all three members appear as if they've just emerged from a sauna. They're determined to prove no other artist at the festival gives everything up more than they do. Before the performance comes to a screeching end with an extended version of "Wet Blanket" a half hour later, Metz throws down with a furious intensity and blistering in-the-red energy that rivals any act in Pitchfork Festival's nine-year history. Edkins yelps, shouts and hollers akin to a man battling Tourette's. The trio's turbulent blend of noise, punk and late 80s underground Chicago rock matches Edkins' electroshock vocals. Metz's stamina and aggression are equaled by its musicianship. For all the spastic tendencies, amp-humming feedback and over-caffeinated tempos, this is an incredibly tight and assertive band. Drummer Hayden Menzies coaxes more out of three basic drums than most of his peers do a set thrice as large; his power and pace recall peak-era Dave Grohl while the concussive tone conjures Shellac's Todd Trainer. The drum skins literally sound as if they're about to snap from the abuse. The thrust and anxiety of "Can't Understand," "Wasted," "Headache" and "Rats" all mirror their titles. Reproducing the effect of going hands-up on a roller coaster taking hairpin turns at obscene speeds, taking a second to catch your breath and then doing it all over again, Metz challenges you to even blink. What a rush. (BG)
5:50 p.m.: "I see it all!" Michael Gira of Swans declares, and his band encompasses myriad styles and tonalities from across the world to make good on the claim. Gira's first version of Swans, on the no-wave '80s New York underground scene, was among the most punishing bands ever. His current incarnation of the group can be no less foreboding, but with exotic rhythms and voicings adding strange new colors. With arms shaking as if possessed, Gira dances to dirty street funk that morphs into free jazz. The band then builds a storm cloud of percussion that grows black and thicker with each minute, finally resolving a gigantic guitar chords that crash like waves against a rocky shoreline. Gira hardly seems like a indie legend resting on his past accomplishments. He still packs a wallop. (GK)

Looking for a family to stay with for a week or less
Hello, everyone!
I´m Estefania, Spanish girl in her´s 24. I´m planing to spend a week in your city. I´ll arrive on 21th and a good friend, Bea, is coming to stay with me on 25th. Both are studing a degree on teaching (children under 4) in Madrid.
We are looking for a couch/several couches and good company between oct 21th and nov 1th. We don´t expect to stay the hole week in the same place, so don´t worry. Just when you can/choose.
I though it would be easier (like in Europe) but I have been sending a lot of personalized couch request for a week and only 3 people reply to say no, so I´m starting to be desperated.
Could we rely on you?
Thanks so much,
P.S. You can find me and my friend on facebook as:

Santa Cruz
The big city on this stretch of the California coast, Santa Cruz (pop. 57,500) is less manicured than Carmel or Monterey. Long known for its surfing and its amusement-filled beach boardwalk, the town is a mix of grand Victorian-era homes and rinky-dink motels. The opening of the University of California campus in the 1960s swung the town sharply to the left politically, and the counterculture more or less lives on here. At the same time, the revitalized downtown and an insane real-estate market reflect the city's proximity to Silicon Valley and to a growing wine country in the surrounding mountains.

You're not alone.
At any given moment, somewhere in the world someone struggles with the same software design problems you have. You know you don't want to reinvent the wheel (or worse, a flat tire), so you look to Design Patterns--the lessons learned by those who've faced the same problems. With Design Patterns, you get to take advantage of the best practices and experience of others, so that you can spend your time on...something else. Something more challenging. Something more complex. Something more fun.
You want to learn about the patterns that matter--why to use them, when to use them, how to use them (and when NOT to use them). But you don't just want to see how patterns look in a book, you want to know how they look "in the wild". In their native environment. In other words, in real world applications. You also want to learn how patterns are used in the Java API, and how to exploit Java's built-in pattern support in your own code.
You want to learn the real OO design principles and why everything your boss told you about inheritance might be wrong (and what to do instead). You want to learn how those principles will help the next time you're up a creek without a design pattern.
Most importantly, you want to learn the "secret language" of Design Patterns so that you can hold your own with your co-worker (and impress cocktail party guests) when he casually mentions his stunningly clever use of Command, Facade, Proxy, and Factory in between sips of a martini. You'll easily counter with your deep understanding of why Singleton isn't as simple as it sounds, how the Factory is so often misunderstood, or on the real relationship between Decorator, Facade and Adapter.
With Head First Design Patterns, you'll avoid the embarrassment of thinking Decorator is something from the "Trading Spaces" show. Best of all, in a way that won't put you to sleep! We think your time is too important (and too short) to spend it struggling with academic texts.
If you've read a Head First book, you know what to expect--a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works. Using the latest research in neurobiology, cognitive science, and learning theory, Head First Design Patterns will load patterns into your brain in a way that sticks. In a way that lets you put them to work immediately. In a way that makes you better at solving software design problems, and better at speaking the language of patterns with others on your team.
Eric Freeman is a computer scientist with a passion for media and software architectures and coauthor of Head First Design Patterns. He just wrapped up four years at a dream job-- directing internet broadband and wireless efforts at Disney--and is now back to writing, creating cool software, and hacking Java and Macs.Eric spent a lot of the '90s working on alternatives to the desktop metaphor with David Gelernter (and they're both still asking the question, "Why do I have to give a file a name?"). Based on this work, Eric landed a Ph.D. at Yale University in 1997. He also co-founded Mirror Worlds Technologies (now acquired) to create a commercial version of his thesis work, Lifestreams. In a previous life, Eric built software for networks and supercomputers. You might know him from such books as JavaSpaces Principles Patterns and Practice. Eric has fond memories of implementing tuple-space systems on Thinking Machine CM-5s and creating some of the first internet information systems for NASA in the late 1980s. When he's not writing text or code you'll find him spending more time tweaking than watching his home theater and trying to restore a circa 1980s Dragon's Lair video game. He also wouldn't mind moonlighting as an electronica DJ. Write to him at eric at wickedlysmart dot com or visit him at http://www.ericfreeman.com .

The head first books are beautiful. The color printing really makes them stand out. The .mobi and .pdf version of this book is mostly grayscale. Its really a shame.

Interesting concepts and fun to read
By Jeroen
from Paris, France
About Me Developer
This book has thought me very interesting concepts that are not always easy to get your head around. But since this book is fun to read it has not been a painful. I like the "Head First.." series a lot, but within the series the "Design Patterns" is the best one I read so far.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Advanced knowledge made easy
By Rolland
from Munich, Germany
I have read this book in order to improve my Java programming skill. I found the writing style very helpful and lots of fun.But the most important thing is that it tough me a lot about design patterns. The information is presented accurately and simple. I was involved in a project at the time of reading the book, and it immediately sent me back to the drawing board to redesign some of my classes.I can only recommend this book.

Keep it in arms reach
By thejartender (The Jar Bar).
from Borgund, Norway
About Me Designer, Developer
I am a Java developer and this book is the type that's best left on your desk or somewhere within arms reach. Why try and solve problems that have already been solved by those before you? This book provides solutions to design implementations that help you get the job done effectively when a hiccup occurs (you're garunteed to have a few of them), hence why this book.. just buy it!If Object Orientated Programmming is going to be your forte, this is going to likely b your number one book.This book should assist you greatly in one of the most common tasks that will face you as a OOP; refactoring. Refactor your code without breaking anyone elses, and learn how to implement designs correctly from scratch thanks to this fantastic HF book.

Very dry subject excellently explained!!
By Bala
from Longmont, CO
Most people agree that design pattern is a very dry subject. 'Conventional' books or wikipedia can only offer recipe style explanations to different patterns, but fails to explain the difference between any two similar looking patterns. I think the main reason for me to recommend this book is that, this book takes care of explaining the subtle differences between similar looking patterns. What is missing:This book covers in depth on about 13 or so patterns in depth. Would be nice if more patterns like bridge, visitor, MVC are explained in depth like the other patterns.
Best book i have ever read
By Paritosh
from India
I can declare that Head first can be my first love.It just move like a movie without loosing the context.I can all say if you wanted to learn good tips on any topics go with Head first.This is a beyond book anyone can think off.No boring example.I can remember all design patterns when I see requirement,and design them accordingly.I feel I am on the right path after reading this book

Local home grown pet store and Austin icon Tomlinson's Feed and Pet Stores has been named "Retailer of the Year" by Pet Product News International, the nation's leading business news magazine covering the issues and trends affecting all sectors of the professional pet industry. This highly coveted award recognizes Tomlinson's not only for their prominence in the marketplace, but also for their commitment to employee training, promotion of pet adoptions and companion animals, involvement with service organizations, innovative promotions, community impact and industry impact. To read the PPN article about Tomlinson's, go to http://www.petproductnews.com/retailer-of-the-year/retailer-of-the-year.aspx or click to it from Tomlinson's homepage at http://www.tomlinsons.com/.

The William Monroe boys fell to George Mason, 70-48, in a one-game playoff for the regular season Bull Run title. Monroe beat Mason on Feb. 4, 54-46, to force the playoff.
With the win the Mustangs secured the top seed in the Bull Run Tournament while Monroe will host Central as the No. 2 seed.
Also in Bull Run boys play, the Madison boys beat Manassas Park 71-57, to earn a shot at the winner of the Central-Monroe game.
Meanwhile in other boys action, Monticello went on the road and fell to George Wythe, 58-57, in the Mustangs' regular-season finale. Monticello was without eight players who were suspended for coming off the bench in a melee against Charlottesville earlier this week.
On the girls side, Madison County scored a 36-32 upset win over rival Clarke County in the Bull Run District quarterfinals. The fifth-seeded Mountaineers will face top seed George Mason next Wednesday in the semifinals.

Project Vote is pleased to release the latest policy paper in our Issues in
Election Administration series, Online Voter Registration.
voter registration is a promising and increasingly popular way for states to
expand the options available to eligible citizens to register to vote. Properly
implemented, systems that allow citizens to register or update their
registration information online have the potential to increase the accuracy of
the voter rolls, reduce election administration costs, and bring more
Americans—particularly underrepresented younger Americans—into the electoral
process. However,
election officials must take care to ensure that such systems are designed to
maximize the efficiency and impact of online registration. Furthermore, it is
important to recognize that online registration may not help all populations
equally. Officials should take steps to ensure that the shift towards
electronic registration does not leave certain demographics behind and
exacerbate existing disparities in the electorate.
by Project Vote Election Counsel Michelle Kanter Cohen, Online Voter Registration provides a comprehensive
overview of this issue, identifying both the tremendous benefits and potential
concerns of online registration. The
paper summarizes the various systems currently in place around the country, and
offers reasonable recommendations for how legislators and election officials
can best design online systems to reach the greatest number of eligible

Why book with me? Good question. If you have not ridden abroad before, you may want someone around to help. I can assure you that it is not difficult at all, but I'm here to help you get the most out of your trip to France. Here is a brief summary of my affinity with France. I have been visiting France up to 6 times per year for work or pleasure since my school day French Exchange visits at the age of 15. I've been taking groups down to Bourg St Maurice and the South coast of France since 1983. I went out with the British Canoe Team in 1983 and again in 1985 for the World Kayak Championships. I hold a degree in French, and I qualified as a French teacher in 1985. I've worked 3 whole tourist seasons on the Cote D'Azur, and one season as a holiday representative in the Dordogne for Haven Leisure. I have contacts in the town, and can access self-catering apartments which are worth knowing about at any time of year. In the event of a problem, knowing exactly where to go, and who to talk to can be a real advantage.I ski in France every winter (I may already have been down to Bourg several times over the winter before these bike trips in June and July) and my father in law owns property in the town. Restauranteurs and hoteliers have become friends over the years, and it feels like I live there sometimes.
Whether you ski or not, it is worth a ride up to Tignes, and a visit to the Grande Motte Glacier. Why not join us this summer?
Do something different this year. Your bike deserves more than just a Sunday run to Hartside cafe, Matlock Bath, or Boxhill. I look forward to meeting you in 2007

As reported by Stars and Stripes a few weeks ago, a Marine stationed at Camp Lejeune has been accused of "engaging in sexual behavior with dogs" in his neighborhood. So, naturally, Air Force Maj. Jonathan C. Dowty, a.k.a. the Christian Fighter Pilot, whose countless blog posts about the repeal of DADT show his obvious distress over the repeal not causing any of the catastrophic problems predicted by his fundamentalist brethren, is gleefully attributing this bestiality incident to the repeal.
Maj. Dowty begins one of his posts this morning, US Marine Arrested for Indecency with Dogs:
"Apparently, he thought the repeal of DADT meant he didn't have to live a lie, and wouldn't be punished just for loving someone…er, something…whatever."
Yes, even though this Marine appears to be straight, with the Stars and Stripes article mentioning his spouse and children (whom he is also accused of showing internet porn to), Maj. Dowty, in his desperation to find some kind of negative impact of DADT repeal, is blaming this straight Marine's deviant behavior on it.
Not familiar with the Christian Fighter Pilot? See my previous posts about about his disturbing obsession with Mikey Weinstein and the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF), and his cyber-bullying of non-Christian enlisted service members.

Tracey Li named Dean Lindsey Cowen Research Fellow
Tracey Li has been named the Dean Lindsey Cowen Research Fellow for the Case Western Reserve University School of Law Law-Medicine Center. Li, a native of China, earned her BA and MA in Chinese literature from Northeast Normal University, Changchun, China in 2002, a MA in political science from the University of Tennessee in 2006, and a JD from Case Western Reserve University School of Law in 2013. As a research fellow, Li will conduct research in matters of health law and bioethics and assist professors with their writing and research projects. "My experience with different cultures caused me to become interested in law and to pursue my J.D.," said Li. "I feel very fortunate to have graduated from Case Western Reserve University School of Law this past May with honors." The Dean Lindsey Cowen Fellowship was made possible by a generous grant from Pat Ferry and the Ferry Family Foundation.

Anyone smart will probably notice that there are many similarities between Dragonite and Gyarados, but Dragonite can probably do most of what Gyarados can do better. There is only one advantage that Gyarados has: people don't know what to expect from it. It is so left out and underestimated that it is very easy to surprise the opponent with your movesets, as long as you use them with intelligence—people stay more on guard against Dragonite. A good combo to note is Gyarados and Steelix. Both cover each other's weaknesses incredibly well.
This won't KO anything off the bat, but is great in the late-game. It takes a lot of prediction, so get those thinking caps on. Double-Edge deals steady damage, Zap Cannon paralyzes other Water-types, Hydro Pump has STAB, and Hidden Power Ground maims Electric-types from that nice attack.
Other Options
Gyarados has a very good array of moves to choose from. It can stall with its stats and Toxic, and it can Curse up if you can get those Electrics out of the way. It learns Reflect which is always good in GSC, and Roar to phaze.
Checks and Counters
As Gyarados is quadruply weak to Electric-type attacks, most anything with Thunderbolt will 2HKO it. However, most Electrics have poor Defense with which to take Hidden Power Ground, but Zapdos and non-Electric-types are effective. For example, Porygon2's fairly evenly distributed defenses and Recover will keep it up against Gyarados.

A couple reports - Barnes and Workman - did not have the current team box. Would be nice to add back in before archiving.
Is Duke any relation to onetime NFL place kicker Uwe Von Shamann?
Same thing I was thinking and it looks like he is
I know this game. You pick the player who's totally made up and fictional, right? Unfortunately, you made it too easy this time, boys. Duke Von Schamann. Where do I leave my info for the prize?
If he doesn't stick as a pitcher, he has a bright future as a Bond villain. Plus-plus name.
These are great, I'm not dismissing these at all, but will there be equivalent hitter reports?
Yes; hitter template is in the works. It's a more complicated process. Scouting hitters takes multiple looks; you really want to sit on an entire series before going to the page on a position player. Those will be coming out soon.
Great, I look forward to it.
Pretty divergent reports about Allen Webster's command, his CH command rated "fringe-average" yesterday and plus today. Obviously different outings yield different results, any explanation beyond he looked better on the 3rd than on the 19th?
Chris Mellen doing work.
Jason, I always knew you had a hard on for Workman. Does he still get it up for you?

Degree Programs
The College of Graduate Health Sciences has ten programs leading to Ph.D. and Masters degrees:
- Biomedical Engineering (Masters and Ph.D.)
- Biomedical Sciences (Ph.D. only)
- Biomedical Sciences with a Concentration in Laboratory Research and Management (Masters Only)
- Dental Sciences (Masters only) (Endodontics, Orthodontics, Pediatric Dentistry, Periodontics, and Prosthodontics)
- Epidemiology (Masters only)
- Health Outcomes and Policy Research (Masters and Ph.D.) (Pharmacoeconomics, Health Policy, and Health Systems Pharmacy Management)
- Nursing Sciences (Ph.D. only)
- Pharmaceutical Sciences (Ph.D. only) (Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmaceutics)
- Pharmacology (Masters only)
- Speech and Hearing Science (Ph.D. only)
In addition to the Ph.D. degree, the College has combined degree programs with other colleges:
The D.D.S./Ph.D. program provides highly motivated and qualified students with an integrated advanced clinical and research program of study leading to the dual degree. This program combines the existing D.D.S. program offered in the College of Dentistry with the Ph.D. programs offered in the College of Graduate Health Sciences. The curriculum for each student is dependent upon their level of preparation and Ph.D. discipline, and generally will involve initiating their research projects during their four-year curriculum in Dentistry. As a result, the total time to graduation varies and depends on the student's background and research progress, but will typically be seven to eight years (as opposed to 10 years for each program independently). Students must be accepted into the College of Dentistry prior to being considered for admission to the D.D.S./Ph.D. program.
The D.N.P./Ph.D. program provides highly motivated and qualified students with an integrated advanced clinical and research program of study leading to the dual degree. This program combines the existing D.N.P. and Ph.D. nursing programs, which are based in the College of Nursing and College of Graduate Health Sciences, respectively. Unlike the traditional D.N.P. program, the first three and final two semesters of the D.N.P./Ph.D. program focus on developing students' ability to conduct clinical research. Thus, students do not enroll in clinical specialty courses until the fourth term of the program. The total time to graduation varies and depends on the student's background. Students must be accepted into the College of Nursing to be considered for admission to the D.N.P./Ph.D. program.
Students who are interested in obtaining an M.D./Ph.D. degree while attending Medical School at the University of Tennessee need apply only to the College of Medicine. Once admitted, students who desire to pursue both degrees need to contact the graduate program or the research faculty whom they want as their research advisor. The Associate Dean for Student Affairs of the College of Graduate Health Sciences will assist students in identifying appropriate programs and faculty. Once a student has identified a faculty advisor who is willing to have the student work on the doctoral dissertation within that laboratory, the student needs to obtain the approval only of the graduate program to enter the Ph.D. phase of the dual degree program. As a medical student, no formal application to the College of Graduate Health Sciences is required. Students do not need to submit GRE scores.
Since this is an informal program, there is not financial support during the M.D. phase of the program, but the student receives the normal stipend and tuition wavier in the College of Graduate Health Sciences upon entering the Ph.D. phase. Normally, students complete the first 2 years of medical school including taking Step 1, USMLE. After completing the M-2 year (April), they enter the Ph.D. phase of the program for 2 to 3 years. Once they have established their dissertation project, been admitted to candidacy, completed a substantial portion of the dissertation work, and obtained approval of their faculty committee, they reenter Medical School by starting their clinical rotations. Although it is possible to complete both degrees within 6 years, a more realistic time frame is 7 years--3.5 years in the Ph.D. phase and 3.5 years in the medical phase. The slightly shortened medical phase reflects the use of medical electives to help students complete their dissertations.
The University of Tennessee College of Pharmacy has developed a unique dual-degree (Pharm.D./Ph.D.) program for carefully selected, highly qualified students. This program combines the existing Pharm.D. and Ph.D. programs currently based in the College of Pharmacy and the College of Graduate Health Sciences, respectively. Students who are accepted into the program may choose to emphasize either Health Outcomes and Policy Research , Medicinal Chemistry, or Pharmaceutics. The program is designed to reduce the time normally required for a student to complete both degrees and to provide a stimulus for pharmacy students to enroll in the Ph.D. program.
