I used to belong to another gym nearby, but as soon as I discovered The Sports Club, I was hooked. My personal trainer, Onzo is by far one of the very best trainers I've had the great experience of learning from for a long time. Their equipment is top notch, always clean and the establishment always neat. The parking leaves something to be desired, as a matter of fact, I always hear people grumbling about it. Thankfully, I can just walk there and get an extra pre and post workout that way.
Good for the average person, bad for bodybuilders – Going in I expected to the gym to be nothing short of perfect, however, I'm very disappointed. If your the average person looking for a decent place to workout and get in/stay in shape then this place would work for you. If your a bodybuilder/powerlifter stay away. There's a fairly new Gold's Gym near by that has nearly everything. The sports club/la however has a serious lack of equipment for back workouts. Also, the equipment seems to be a bit old and from a company I believe either went under or got acquired awhile ago.
What more could you ask for? – There's all of the equipment that you could ask for at this downtown facility. You like to swim..there's a pool. You like to play basketball....there's a court. How about strength training, running, spin...the list goes on. They have it all. There's also a variety of classes too. The staff is always courteous. Hey, after your workout you can grab something to eat or even have a drink at the bar. Oh yeah...a haircut is possible and so is a massage. There's a salon and a spa on premises.
I've found my new inspiration!!! – After spending years at gyms with a HUGE shortage of ellipticals and treadmills....and even the machines available are broken or noisy.....i found my gym! Yippee!!!! I have no issue with spending twice or three times as much as other gyms when i can see where my money is going. There is a new third floor that just opened and has all new equipment and the whole gym is air conditioned....nice! All the cardio machines have their own individual television so a 45 minute cardio session just flies by. The classes have so far been absolutely excellent and are offered in tremendous abundance. i can't wait to try some pilates here! The dieticians and personal trainers look well educated and in great shape. As someone who likes to work out maybe four or five times a week i feel motivated by the lithe, healthy appearing crowd this gym seems to attract. It's a pleasant change from the contagious looking steroid freaks smoking cigarrettes outside many other places i've had memberships. I am handing out free passes to everyone i know!
Good, but slipping a bit – I joined this club when it opened because they promised they would not oversell memberships. The premium price seemed worth it to not have to wait for machines, etc. And things were great for awhile, but lately this place is way too crowded. In some group exercises, for example, the instructor can't do certain exercises because the people are too close together. On the plus side, the locker rooms are very clean, and the equipment is well maintained. For this price, though, there should be a hot tub.
Totally OVERSOLD...too crowded – This place has become completely jammed in the past few months. You can't get any piece of equipment without waiting. It is basically an expensive 24 Hour Fitness at this point. I also heard rumors that the new floor won't be open until October, and they are contunuing to sell sell sell. Its too bad, because this used to be a nice gym.
Best trainer I ever had - Onzo Bennett – I have had several good trainers over the years in different cities and Onzo is by far the best. He clearly knows what he is doing, is passionate about his work and clients, investigates what is going on with your body (many trainers seem like they have a standard progression) and makes it a lot of fun. He has made me understand my body better and enjoy working out. Last but not least, he is not high on himself. I wish I could bring him to NYC with me when I move back.
I like it but am looking around for better! – Overall it's a great club to workout. Lately I hear more and more complaints: lines for showers and being kicked off equipment by a trainer who needs it for his client. My biggest complaint is that they swear the pool temps are 81F. I know they are much colder and as someone that's not a masters swimmer, it's too darn cold. They have some teachers teach too many classes which leads to bordom in style. They have been promising a second floor addition every year for the past 4 years. I wonder if they will pull through this year.
Workout Heaven – For those of us whose default setting is NOT sweating - especially in public - this is a great place to go. Forget the harsh prison motif of other clubs - this place feels like a treat and keeps me coming back. For SF, this is an expensive place - perhaps the most expensive. For me, any place I like enough to go to and exercise 3-4x a week consistently - it's worth it.
Nice but overpriced... – PROs:
-Staff is personable and courteous
-The facility is well equipped and clean
-Exorbitant price
-Membership perks
Looking for a gym with more personal trainers on the gym floor than people actually working-out? Do you buy a new workout outfit every week and refuse to soil it with sweat? This is the place for you.
Whats that? You want to bring a guest? Sorry, there is not an allotment of complimentary guests included in the overpriced membership thatll be $25 extra for one session.
And WHAT IS WITH the small lanes in the pool?! Sure it LOOKS bigger, but you cant circle-swim and therefore the pool only holds 6 people. Think Im kidding? Ive never seen two people in any lane aside from the one normal-sized lane with the ladder thats usually taken for water aerobics.
Considering what you pay for membership, I would expect more

LGBT Community Celebrates at Twin Cities Pride Festival
The Twin Cities Pride Festival is always a celebration. But this year -- and especially this week -- there's a whole lot more for the gay and lesbian community to celebrate.
The Beer Dabbler officially opened the pride festival Friday night. It may have looked somewhat subdued, but don't be fooled -- the kickoff to this year's Pride Festival is brimming with pent-up excitement that's been brewing for years.
"It's very upbeat, especially this year," Mary Keogh, who attended the festival on Friday night, said.
"It's going to be a huge celebration. People are just going to be like, 'This is a year to celebrate,'" Suzie Levy, another attendee, said.
The Pride Festival is always a huge downtown draw. But this year, it's doubling as a kind of victory party.
"Everything is coming together for us, and it's really a time to celebrate," Keogh said.
The festivities follow Minnesota's legalization of gay marriage last month and the Supreme Court's Defense of Marriage Act and Prop 8 reversals earlier this week. The developments have many in the gay and lesbian community wondering if it's all been a dream.
"I never thought I would see it in my lifetime," Keogh said.
Recent Pride Festivals have been politically charged as the state grappled with the issue of gay marriage. But people are predicting a very different atmosphere this time around.
"I think people have come out in the past to just celebrate pride, but now they're going to celebrate who they are," Donna Luttrell, another attendee, said.
And Friday night, there was certainly enough beer flowing for a few thousand celebratory toasts.
"Now we can be out and open, and love who we want, and marry who we want, and be happy," Keogh said.
The festival continues all day on Saturday and Sunday. There will be music, fireworks, a parade, and a whole lot more.

Comments about Sunflower Invitations:
These (along with everything that I've ordered from this site) are the greatest invitations! they are perfectly suited for what I was looking for. My favorite feature about these items is that they are environmentally friendly - recycled papers and inks that are non-toxic. The fact that the site allows to preview the personalized, custom invitations (including fonts and ink colors) is wonderful. Amy Adele is definitely first choice in stationary and invitations. Can't recommend it enough! I always receive compliments from recipients.
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

One major aspect of the PRISMA mission is the safe approach of one satellite to the other. By this the road towards docking is completed one step further and de-orbiting of satellites at their end of life, refueling or repair gets more feasible.
The goal of this experiment is an approach to our target satellite Tango. Onboard Mango the Vision Based Sensor (VBS) system is mounted. The close range camera being part of the VBS was tested throughout the experiment campaign to asses its navigation performance. The goal is to use the close range camera as stand alone sensor during proximity operations to get independent from the GPS.
The formation flying proximity operations performed at the beginning of May are shown in Fig. 1. At the begin of the experiment a safe formation flying configuration was established in form of the presented ellipse. Starting with the approach the ellipse was reduced and Mango approaches towards Tango during one orbit from -30 m down to -20 m (Green arrow #1). After performing station keeping for one orbit at that position the retreat is triggered going back to the -30 m point. The same experiment was repeated on the other side of Tango (Blue arrow #2).
Fig. 1 Proximity flight sequence for VBS CR Experiments in open loop
Due to the statisfying results achieved during the first two experiments on Wednesday finally, an approach maneuver down to 10 m was conducted (Red arrow #3).

text: Maybe the rules need to be updated...nothing racially offensive, or ethnically offensive? I got one person interested then? Cora, right? If I can get at least four people interested, I'll start it up. I think four would be enough to be kinda secret o_O I'd also pick up the slack image wise if someone bails.

John S. Rock was an American teacher, doctor, dentist, attorney and abolitionist who originated the notion of "black is beautiful." Rock was one of the first African American men to earn a medical degree and to be admitted to the Massachusetts bar and the first to argue before the Supreme Court of the United States. With a keen passion for knowledge and an incessant fight for the equality of blacks, John Rock became one of the most distinguished and educated men of his time.
John Sweat (or Swett) Rock was born on October 13, 1825 to free parents in Salem, New Jersey. He attended public schools in New Jersey until he was 19, then worked as a teacher between 1844 and 1848. He first taught in a one room schoolhouse in Salem, consistently holding class for six hours, conducting private tutoring sessions for two hours, and studying medicine.
During this period, Rock began his medical studies with two Caucasian doctors, Dr. Shaw and Dr Gibson, who allowed him to use their personal book collections and textbooks. Medical students at the time commonly undertook apprenticeships with practicing doctors, as Rock did, as a means of gaining medical training. In 1848, Rock applied to medical school, but faced rejection based on his race.
Although he was initially denied entry, Rock was finally accepted into the American Medical College in Philadelphia. While in medical school, Rock also completed an apprenticeship with a Caucasian dentist, Dr. Harbert. In 1850, Rock opened a dental practice in Philadelphia and taught classes at a night school for African Americans.
In 1851, he received a silver medal for the creation of an improved variety of dentures made of silver. and another for a prize essay on temperance.
He graduated in 1852 with a medical degree, becoming one of the first African Americans to attain a degree in medicine.
At the age of 27, Rock was well respected as a talented teacher, dentist and physician. In 1853, he returned to Boston, a city with a reputation of being the most liberal in the United States. Rock set up his own dental and medicine practice. He was commissioned by the integrated Boston Vigilance Committee, an organization of abolitionists, to treat the medical needs of fugitive slaves who had arrived through the Underground Railroad. During this period, Dr. Rock increasingly identified with the abolitionist movement and soon became a prominent speaker for that cause. While he called on the United States government to end slavery, he also urged educated African Americans to use their talents and resources to assist their community.
Like other abolitionists in the movement, such as George T. Downing and Robert Purvis, John Rock became a renowned public speaker and campaigned for the dignity and equal rights of all Americans. Initially, Rock's speeches were public notice; however, they soon began to receive positive public reviews, which led him to travel throughout New England and, occasionally, westward.
Some time after the induction of Dr. John De Grasse in 1854, Rock became the second African American to gain acceptance to the Massachusetts Medical Society.
In 1855, Rock took part in the campaign responsible for the legal desegregation of Boston public schools.
Although he and other abolitionists were determined to see that equality for black Americans was achieved, there were several significant judicial setbacks in the push for civil rights, like the Dred Scott Decision, which spurred John Rock to continue in his pursuit as an abolitionist and later ignited his determination to start a new career in law.
Rock is credited with coining the phrase "black is beautiful" during a speech he gave in Faneuil Hall in 1858 as a refutation of the western idea that the physical features of African Americans were unattractive. However, research on Dr. Rock's speeches in the Black Abolitionist Digital Archive have shown that he in fact did not say the exact words "black is beautiful", but did, in essence, talk about the beauty of the black people. John Rock's polished speeches were printed in William L. Garrison's "The Liberator" as well as in general newspapers, promoting these central ideas.
Rock's health began to deteriorate in the late 1850s. He underwent several surgeries and was forced to halt his medical practice. Believing he would receive more advanced care overseas, Rock made plans to sail to France in 1858. Rock, however, was denied a passport by U.S. Secretary of State Lewis Cass who, citing the 1857 Dred Scott Decision, claimed federal passports were evidence of citizenship and since African Americans we not citizens, Rock could not be issued a passport.
Outraged abolitionist supporters in Boston persuaded the Massachusetts Legislature to demand the Secretary of State grant Rock a passport. The State Department relented and Rock sailed to Paris where he met with two leading French surgeons, Auguste Nelaton and Alfred Armand Velpeau, who recommended he give up his speaking engagements and medical practice.
He returned to Boston in 1859, and in 1860, under his doctors' stipulations to cut back on his workload, he gave up his medical and dental practices and began to study law. On September 14, 1861, T. K. Lothrop, a Caucasian attorney, made the motion before Judge Russell to have Rock examined. Rock passed, becoming one of the first African Americans to be admitted to the Massachusetts Bar before the Civil War.
Soon after, Massachusetts Governor John Andrew appointed Rock Justice of the Peace for Boston and Suffolk County. He then opened a private law office, through which he advocated even more diligently for the rights of African Americans. In 1862, he spoke at the Anti-Slavery Society in Boston, where he voiced his opposition to Lincoln's plan for the so-called "negro colonization" in Haiti and sided with Frederick Douglass on several issues. Rock achieved much success as a lawyer, but did not feel that he had truly gained "success" given the lack of freedom that blacks continued to experience. Rock also stated sadly that 'an educated negro feels the oppression much more than does an uneducated one'. It was thoughts similar to this one, in addition to the lack of executive action for equality, which led him to strive to attain the next level of achievements.
In 1863, Rock helped assemble the 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment, the first officially-recognized African American unit in the Union Army during the Civil War. Rock would later campaign for equal pay for these and other black soldiers.
In 1865, with support from Massachusetts Senator Charles Sumner, Rock became the first African American lawyer to argue a case before the U.S. Supreme Court.
On February 1, 1865, the same day Congress approved the Thirteenth Amendment ending slavery, Charles Sumner introduced a motion that made Rock the first African American attorney to be admitted to argue in the Supreme Court of the United States. Rock also became the first African American to be received on the floor of the United States House of Representatives.
On April 9, 1866 the Civil Rights Act of 1866 was passed which enforced the 13th Amendment. Rock enjoyed this honor for less than a year. He became ill with the common cold that weakened his already failing health and limited his ability to commute efficiently. On December 3, 1866, John S. Rock died in mother's home of tuberculosis at the age of 41. He was laid to rest in Woodlawn Cemetery, buried with full Masonic honors. His admittance into the Supreme Court is recorded on his tombstone.

Back in 2010, it was outspoken celeb and former drug addict Danny Bonaduce who spoke out about Lindsay Lohan and her troubles. "Rehabs," said Bonaduce, "have a national record of a 96 percent failure record. If you want her off drugs for real, handcuff her and -- it's very difficult to do drugs with your hands chained behind your back. Let's stop playing around with these kids. If you don't want the kid to die, put her in jail with her hands tied behind her back. Everybody says there's all these drugs in jail -- and there are drugs in jail -- but believe me, they're not real easy to come by, especially if you're Lindsay Lohan."
In 2012, another outspoken celeb is speaking her mind on the troubled star. Rosie O'Donnell believes that Lohan should not have been cast as Elizabeth Taylor in Lifetime's "Liz & Dick."
It's not because she thinks Lindsay has no ability. "I don't think she's untalented, I think she's quite talented," said Rosie.
Even so, Michael Lohan wasn't too happy with the talk show host's opinion. Tweeted Mr. Lohan, "@rosie@todayshow of ALL people,I can't believe YOU would judge my daughter or her ability.Second chances aren't up to you, they're up to God."
Tweeted O'Donnell in response, "@MichaelJLohan - she needs help - nobody around her seems to get that - it's tragic what has become of her life - work isn't gonna fix her."
What did Lindsay have to say about it all? "It's funny that someone you don't know at all can say something so intrusive and so knowing."
But were Rosie's remarks that off-base? We've watched Lohan try to get her life together with a Playboy spread, a stint on SNL, being cast as Elizabeth Taylor and now as a guest star of "Glee." We want to hope that everything will go smoothly. But now word from the "Glee" cast is that Lohan is slippin'. Reportedly, she was not one, not two but three hours late for rehearsal. A car, from the "Glee" set, even had to arrive at the Chateau Marmont to pick her up. And once the actress arrived on set, apparently, she was less than camera ready.
Are Danny and Rosie right? Is there any hope for a sustained career for Lindsay Lohan?
Said Rosie, "I [was] watching Whitney Houston's funeral, and I remember thinking why didn't more people say what they knew? We all knew, when she would not show up to do this show, not show up to do my show, we watched Being Bobby Brown and it was like watching Sid and Nancy, they were people who were in the throes of addiction. But all that anyone cared about was that the show was getting ratings, not that this woman, this talented individual, this human being, this mother, this daughter, was worth saving."

Public Offering asked faculty members what books they enjoyed most this year and here's what they said. (Take a look at last year's list for more titles.)
Daniel Ames How to Break a Terrorist by Matthew Alexander is the story of the author's experiences as a member of a U.S. intelligence and interrogation team working in Iraq in 2006. On one side, he struggles to coax information from hardened fighters as well as hapless suspects. On the other, he struggles with different attitudes in the military on the effectiveness of harsh interrogation techniques. It's a fascinating glimpse into what is, for most of us, an unknown world. And the underlying story holds some lessons for how many of us might approach the "ordinary" conflicts in our everyday lives.
Ray Fisman Tokyo Vice: An American Reporter on the Police Beat in Japan by Jake Adelstein is an enormously entertaining and instructive look inside the world of the original economic gangsters.
Ray Horton I've read a number of good books on the now two-year-old economic crisis, including Robert Skidelsky's Keynes: The Return of the Master, Justin Fox's The Myth of the Rational Market and Animal Spirits by George A. Akerlof and Robert J. Shiller. But the best of the bunch in my opinion is John Cassidy's new book How Markets Fail: The Logic of Economic Calamities. He does the best job of tying the theory problems to the rationally irrational behaviors that nearly sunk the ship of modern finance.
What is your book pick of the year? Please share your nomination.
Malia Mason The Big Sort: Why the Clustering of Like-Minded America Is Tearing Us Apart by Bill Bishop with Robert G. Cushing.
Emi Nakamura This Time is Different: Eight Centuries of Financial Folly by Carmen Reinhardt and Kenneth Rogoff.
Many notable books and ideas were published by faculty authors this past year as well. Several of these have been recently featured in Columbia Ideas at Work including: The Curse of the Mogul by Bruce Greenwald, Jonathan Knee and Ava Seave; The Aid Trap by Glenn Hubbard and William Duggan; and Value Above Cost: Driving Superior Financial Performance with CVA: The Most Important Metric You've Never Used by Don Sexton.

Hi Australian fans,
Rivers has recently said in an interview that a Pinkerton show is a possibility for Australia if there's enough demand:
"I can tell you that we as a band would sure love to play a Pinkerton show and it's entirely up to the demand of the Australian audience," he says.
"If you do want to see a Pinkerton show please start chatting about it online and let the promoter know and hopefully we can add a Pinkerton show."

So here's the plan:
Hopefully, we can create enough commotion for Weezer and Chugg Entertainment to take notice.

Summary of Summer According to Humphrey Summary of Summer According to Humphrey Reviews for Summer According to Humphrey An Excerpt from Summer According to Humphrey
In his sixth adventure, Humphrey heads off for the great outdoors."Humphrey is a witty, fun, and lovable character with great kid appeal." -School Library Journal
When Humphrey hears that school is ending, he panics. School ends? What's a classroom hamster to do if he's not in school? But as it turns out, there's something thrilling in store for Humphrey and Og the frog: going to Camp Happy Hollow with Ms. Mac and lots of the kids from Room 26! Camper Humphrey meets a friendly wild mouse, tracks down Og when he gets lost by the lake, and uses his wily charm to help kids adjust to cabin life and make new friends.
Everyone's favorite classroom pet keeps entertaining kids across the nation, and his books have won eight state awards and were nominated for fourteen others.

This belt tends to break, and stretch easily. We go through at least 4 per season. I think the price is to high. each year it lasts less time and costs more. But we gotta have it!

I own a Craftsman Riding Mower that I have used for the last 6 years on my 2.4 acres located in the Cascade Foot Hills. The property is rustic and the lawn mowers chore is tough one. Last year I purchased a discount mower drive belt and this year I had to purchase another; my replacement belt is a genuine Craftsman and instantly I recognized an improvement in mower's performance. The original belt lasted several years, the discount belt (about 7 dollars cheaper) lasted one year and slipped the whole time. No brainier, I wasted my money buying something other then a genuine craftsman replacement part.
Hanover, PA

I want to thank the Sears Service department for forcing me to figure out how to install this belt on my riding mower. I called the service department number that I received from the lawn and garden department. This occured on Friday, September 30th 2011. Since I am physically disabled, I was more than willing to pay the $99 fee to have a technician come out and look at my mower to fix the problem. However, when the person on the other end of the line informed me that the earliest the technician would be able to come out would be October 31, 2011, I decided that even I could repair the mower before Sears would be able to come out to look at it. I had no idea that October was such a busy month for lawn mower repairs. I think by the end of October, the odds of needing my snowblower will be greater than needing my lawn mower. Either way, I had the belt installed within 3.5 hours and saved the $99 fee. Thanks Sears Service !
Uniontown, KS
via sears.com
I am not sure if it is the belt or the mower, however, I have to replace this drive belt almost every year. At first I thought it had to be something wrong on my mower, but then I found that a couple of other customers are having the same problem. I would love to see a high quality belt offered that will last a few years.

Product DescriptionA Lot of us shave our legs. A lot of us don't. Just because you've exchanged your spandex for baggies doesn't mean you don't want a bike that climbs like your hardtail; just because you don't armor up doesn't mean you don't like to decend like a madman. The ultimate trail-bike, the Sensor takes agility, responsiveness, and effciency of a cross-country race bike, and adds more travel and a slacker geometry for inspired descents and more predictable line choices. Are we claiming a little bit by calling it the ultimate trail bike? Maybe. But then again, Mick did win Sea Otter's Dual Slalom on it.

Strengths: Comfortable, quick handling, Light bike spec'd with high end components. Fox front & rear are amazing ( I'm a bigger guy @ 6"1 - 245) The bike is equiped with full Shimano XT ( except crank which is Truvativ Stylo )all are smooth & reliable. They aren't as light as XTR, but I believe that the main difference is basicly the weight of components. The I-Drive system is smooth all around the trail & climbs very well. I can't say enough about this bike it is a great value for the money.
Weaknesses: The one & only concern I have is with the cable routing thru the rear triangle. It is a tight fit between the frame & seat tube. It has rubbed some of the powder coated paint off the frame & worn the cable housing a bit. I think some lizard skin film tape should resolve any issues. Other wise love this bike. Awesome ride.

Renault faces another executive shakeupAugust 30, 2013: 11:35 AM ET
Carlos Tavares, chief operating officer of Renault SA and second-in-command to Carlos Ghosn, resigned on Thursday.
By Doron Levin
FORTUNE -- Carlos Tavares, chief operating officer of Renault SA and second-in-command to Carlos Ghosn, stepped down from his post on Thursday. His resignation came two weeks after publication of his disclosure to a journalist that he would like to run General Motors (GM) or Ford (F) as chief executive, a post that wouldn't be his at Renault.
According to Bloomberg News, Tavares, 55, had proposed a wider role for himself at Renault, an idea Ghosn, 59, rejected. He was offered the chance to remain chief operating officer but ultimately chose to leave in search of a top job elsewhere.
Clearly, constituencies inside Renault, including employee unions, were shocked and disgruntled by Tavares's statements, which lately have been picked up by the French press.
French labor union members at Renault expressed indignation that Tavares would voice a desire to work elsewhere, especially because he has been a central figure in negotiations for wrenching cost cuts and a personnel freeze at the automaker.

Force Ouvriere, the third largest French union, distributed leaflets (prior to the news of Tavares's departure) that read "How do we stay faithful to a head of operations who, by sheer personal ambition, already has one eye looking hungrily at our competitors?"
Tavares has been highly regarded in industry circles. He distinguished himself at Nissan Motors, which is 43% owned by Renault. He may well land a job at another automaker, though presumably he would hire on with a company that needs a new chief executive or at least is willing to make him a contender for that office.
But some automakers could see Tavares as a potential disruption to the corporate suite, a loose cannon who breached customary protocol and displayed questionable judgment by openly discussing his career ambitions in the press.
GM was quick to say that Tavares "isn't coming here," in the words of a spokesman. And Ford declined to discuss the matter.
This is the second dust-up in Renault's executive suite over the past two years. Tavares was promoted to chief operating officer after Renault forced out Patrick Pelata, Ghosn's erstwhile No. 2, in the wake of a corporate espionage scandal in which three Renault managers were wrongfully terminated.
For Renault and Nissan, Tavares's exit is certain have repercussions to the company's succession plans. Carlos Ghosn's current employment contract expires in April, and as the longest-serving CEO among the top global automakers, he appears to be solidly entrenched. Yet the boards of Nissan and Renault now must reconsider succession at both automakers for the second time in two years.

Whatever happens next to Tavares, it may not happen quickly. Controversies and passions need a bit of time to fade. Floundering French automaker Peugeot SA could probably use him right now.
As for Ghosn, he displayed his leadership chops again by decisively excising a compromised subordinate before the affair could fester and take an unexpected turn. Just over a year ago, he poached a key executive from Audi to lead Nissan's luxury-car makeover for Infiniti -- perhaps now he will be on the prowl again.

Free motorway lessons for Somerset's newly-qualified drivers (From This is The West Country)

Free motorway lessons for Somerset's newly-qualified drivers
11:00am Tuesday 3rd December 2013 in News
NEWLY-qualified drivers in Somerset can benefit from free motorway lessons as part of a safety initiative.
Somerset Road Safety is offering the 90-minute lessons to drivers between 17 and 24 as part of the 'Up to Speed' project, aimed at improving motorway safety.
Cabinet member Harvey Siggs, said: "Driving on the motorway can be a daunting experience and this is a fantastic opportunity for newly qualified drivers to learn the fundamentals of motorway driving and build confidence with an approved driving instructor by their side.
"I would encourage all drivers that qualify for this course to book themselves on to it to increase their knowledge and experience."
Learners are not allowed to drive on the motorway, meaning that newly-qualified drivers often lack the knowledge and experience of motorway driving when they first pass their test.
Drivers must attend a free, hour-long workshop prior to the practical lesson to learn the rules of motorway.
Drivers will then be accompanied by an approved driving instructor for a 90-minute practical driving lesson on the motorway covering joining the motorway, overtaking manoeuvres, lane discipline, approaching a junction and leaving the motorway.
Terry Beale, manger of Somerset Road Safety, said: "The current regulations prohibit learner drivers from gaining valuable experience on major high speed roads.
"Our aim is to give young drivers additional skills to drive on the motorway safely.
"This course will go some way to giving them the confidence and experience to avoid the dangers of driving on high speed roads."

2012 Ugni Blanc Vin de France, La Cadence(6x75cl)
An attractive glossy, pale yellow with crispy, fresh citrus and floral aromas with lively herby apple flavours on the palate. Soft in texture with a persistant finish.
NV Lot 76 XO, Cognac Tesseron(6x70cl)
To quote F Paul Pacult "The pristine condition of this stunningly copper-colored brandy is inspiring - it's gorgeous. In the nose there are delicate fragrances of spice, sesame seed, light oak, and baked pears; seven more minutes in the glass bring out pineapple, light toffee, milk, and brown sugar. The palate entry is elegant, composed, and moderately sweet in more of an oaky than a fruity way; by the midpalate stage, there's flavor evidence of ripe pear, white grapes, cake frosting, oloroso sherry, orange peel and dark honey. Ends up sugary sweet, satiny textured, and long in the throat."
1979 Vintage Bas Armagnac, Castarede(6x70cl)
The 1979 has a delicate nose with hints of perfume. It has aromas of fruits like peach and prune. It is extremely long in the mouth with lots of fruit character and a hint of spice.
1946 Vintage Bas Armagnac, Castarede(6x70cl)
Deep in colour, with an amazing aroma it is powerful in the mouth with extraordinary length. The whole is dominated by concentrated fruit and round tannins.
NV Grand Impérial Brut, Vin Mousseux, CFGV(12x75cl)
Smooth and clean with a pleasing pear juice character, medium body and dry palate.
NV Bas Armagnac V.S.O.P. (min 10 yrs old), Castarede(6x70cl)
Amber core with a bronze rim; shows mellow walnut, warm spices, cocoa and prunes on the nose. Mellow attack on the palate, but not cloying thanks to a delicious freshness and texture.
NV Lot 29 XO, Cognac Tesseron(6x70cl)
Described by F Paul Pacult as: "Bronze/copper/topaz color; ideal purity... nut paste/oak scent..; with further air exposure, the bouquet takes on an orangy/citrusy leaning as the smell turns fruitier the more it aerates; lovely and compelling. The palate entry is supple, fruity sweet, and ripe; the midpalate stage highlights melded flavors of light caramel, marzipan, and nougat. Ends up oaky sweet, lightly spiced, and satiny. Like this cognac very much." Or Malcolm Gluck "This liquid can represent the planet in the cognac, armagnac and malt whisky class. It has the qualities of an elixir."
NV Lot 90 XO, Cognac Tesseron(6x70cl)
Attractive goldenm colour, Very fresh pear & quince notes on attack, give way to herbaceous elements, dried fruits and nuts, fresh, with intriguing hints of almond.THE PALATE: Firm, focussed, powerful, reflecting the aromatics presented by the nose – typical, young, quality cognac
1972 Vintage Bas Armagnac, Castarede(6x70cl)
This Armagnac distilled in 1970 has a very aromatic nose with hints of vanilla and spice. On the palate it is wonderfully well balanced with a light shade of vanilla and fine elegant fruit.
NV Bas Armagnac X.O. (min 20 years old), Castarede(6x70cl)
Coppery topaz in the glass with a characterful, intense, vibrant nose showing candied chestnut and dried currants mingled with luscious oaky notes of cigar box and sandalwood. Very mellow, complex palate.

Anniston police Sgt. Chris Sparks said officers met the mother of the boy at Stringfellow Memorial Hospital around 4 p.m. Tuesday. The boy received treatment at the hospital for burns on his hip, Sparks said. The sergeant was uncertain today of the severity of the child's burns or his current condition.
Sparks said officers went to the child's home on the 1500 block of Walnut Avenue on Tuesday and arrested Ravois Johnson, 33, of Anniston, on second-degree domestic violence charges.
Johnson was a relative of the boy, Sparks said, and lives with the child at the home. Sparks said the reason why Johnson threw the hot drink was still under investigation.
Johnson was in the Anniston City Jail this morning. Bond is set at $5,000, Sparks said.

Movie Summary | Infoplease.com
Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back
Description: The second entry in George Lucas' Star Wars trilogy finds Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), the green-as-grass hero from the first film, now a seasoned space warrior. Luke's Star Wars cohorts Han Solo (Harrison Ford) and Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher) are likewise more experienced in the ways and means of battling the insidious Empire, as represented by the brooding Darth Vader (body of David Prowse, voice of James Earl Jones). And, of course, The Force, personified by the ghost of Luke's mentor Ben Kenobi (Alec Guinness), is with them all. Retreating from Vader's minions, Luke ends up, at first, on the Ice Planet Hoth, and then the tropical Dagobah. Here he makes the acquaintance of the gnomish Yoda (voice of Frank Oz), whose all-encompassing wisdom comes in handy during the serial-like perils of the rest of the film. Before the film's open-ended climax, we are introduced to the apparently duplicitous Lando Calrissian (Billy Dee Williams) and are let in on a secret that profoundly affects both Luke and his arch-enemy, Vader. Many viewers consider this award-winning film the best of the Star Wars movies, and its special-effects bonanza was pure gold at the box office.~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Jenks >Food & Dining > Juanita's Fine Cooked Mexican
120 E Main St, Jenks, OK | Directions 7403736.022285 -95.968581
Very authentic and down to earth simple – My wife and I ate there this evening for our first time and found it to be a bit different than most restaurants. At first, we thought it was a bit slow and less than responsive but then we realized it was the charm of the place. The waiter was so very laid back and friendly... it was like having supper at a personal friend's house. The food is very authentic Mexican... not tex mex style where your place is filled with heaping piles of cheese, sour cream, lettuce, onions, etc. The food looks so plain and simple BUT the taste was absolutely incredible! The restaurant is clean and simple yet it provides a meal that you can't find at other local Mexican food establishments.
If you go there (and you should), leave your inhibitions at home and go with a frame of mind that you're having supper at a friend's house. The meal is spectactular and you'll probably get hooked.... we sure did!
Worst "customer service" EVER! – My husband, 6 year old daughter, 7 year old son and I went into Juanita's for the first time tonight. We happened to walk in at the same time as two other gentlemen and because there was nobody at the front to seat us we made small talk with the men while we waited. Nobody came out so we sat at a table by the door at which time a heavy set man with dark hair came out of the back and shouted across the restaurant "didn't you read the sign on the door". They have a sign on the door that says for parties of more than 5 you have to call a day in advance. Before we could even explain that we were not together and separate parties he loudly announced "you need to leave" and went back into the kitchen. He never approached us, he yelled everything from the kitchen doorway which made everyone in the restaurant stop what they doing and watch, he did not let us talk to him and he never apologized. He did not treat us like customers let alone like human beings. I will never pay a dime to Juanita's and I suggest you do the same.

People need to realize that mistakes happen.
There has been a lot of outrage against President Obama and his administration for many things including Benghazi. However, the government receives thousands if not tens of thousands of threats every day. The president is not the first person to hear of something when there is a threat or scandal. He might be the fifth person depending on the chain of command. Because of this, all presidents rely on what others are telling them and assume to some degree that they are correct. Sometimes things are overlooked.
Benghazi was overlooked or simply missed. It happens. Sept. 11 happened because of mistakes as well. Things rarely go just as planned and often many unforeseen consequences occur.
Remember one thing: Presidents today get too much credit when things go well, and too much blame when things go sour.

Perfect restaurant that's right on the water. I am glad that I was able to take my wife out here for our anniversary dinner. I think it was the perfect place. We had amazing seafood. Probably the best we have ever had. But we were also really impressed by the service. Our waitress was so sweet, I wish I caught her name. But I'm sure the entire staff is all the same. I highly recommend this restaurant on the water.
Castagnola's has been around for as long as I can remember. I have always been happy with the services that they provide here and the food is amazing. I recommend this place to all my friends.
I have come here on every anniversary! This is the very first place my boyfriend had took me to. So we made it a tradition to come every anniversary. I hope this place stays open forever so me and my boyfriend can continue to come here on a regular basis.
I love the food here! Good service one of my favorite places to eat<3
Great Food – Good food wonderful staff, keep up the good work! The waitress we had was amazing you knew what we should order and told us what her favorite was, I git what she recommended and it was great.
Nice Place – I was there was for my bday last November. So that is how much I liked the place, I wanted to have my bday dinner there. So we now were a group of 10 and were served by the same waiter, which I still loved. He had this coolness about him. In our party were two children under the age of 8. The menu wasn't too accommodating to them so we had to make something up for them. But that was no biggie. The setting was still nice. we were able to sit by the window to enjoy the view and we were LOUD. If you look at this place, you would think that you cant be loud, but you can. it wasn't busy, so we acted as if we owned the place. they didn't mind. Its an Italian/Seafood place. we know the Italians get very vocal while they eat. So any who, the prices are a tad steep for those that do not like to spend over $30 a meal. this does include your entree and a specialty drink. I highly recommend if you are an out of towner or opting for a nice date
What better evening can you have on Wednesday night - hump day! Great jazz, good food, attentive service and wonderful drinks. During the holiday try their pumpkin vodka special...yum, yum, yum! The Jazz are local musicians (Frank Jackson, Noel Jewkes, Shota Osabe, and the GREAT Jim Rothermel) and the music makes the atmosphere cozy and comfortable. Have been there so far three times and loved it every time...I'm trying the stand up comedy on Thursdays next!!!
From the outside, this place looks okay. But the environment, and service was great when seated. I had been here twice and both times were awesome. Their food was great; I haven't tried much but try either the lobster ravioli or the fried calamari. MMMMMmmmmmmm GOOD!
Great Hang – The bay area's top jazz and blues musicians play for free at Castagnola's! 4 to 7 pm, no cover, great views and drinks at special reduced prices for happy hour. It's a great hang.
Nice Service! – We went here for drinks and had a nice table out on the patio. Jennifer the bartender made me an amazing lemon drop and even came to our table to greet us and ensure that the drinks were made to our satisfaction. Nice service!

Fenwick is one of the most recognizable distance coaches in the country, having spent the last three years as the Head Men's National Team Coach for the Mission Viejo Nadadores, a premier Gold Medal club team in California.
"When this job opened up, one of my first thought was, `It's time for Tyler Fenwick to come home to Knoxville,'" head coach Matt Kredich said. "In the last three years Tyler has been one of the most productive senior level coaches in the country."
"He has demonstrated a powerful understanding of how to develop swimmers and how to prepare them for international competition, so he's clearly shown his expertise, particularly when it comes to distance swimming."
In Fenwick's first season back at Tennessee, the Vols and Lady Vols enjoyed strong dual meet and championship seasons as a combined program. The Lady Vols won their first three NCAA relay titles on their way to finishing third as a team at the national meet, the best finish in program history. Meanwhile, the Vols took fourth at SECs and 16th at NCAAs, an improvement of six places from a year ago.
The Vols' distance swimmers steadily improved throughout the year with Sam Petersen and Ben Miller both recording top-10 times in the 1650-yard freestyle.
In three years at MVN he guided 13 athletes to their first Junior National standard, 10 to their first U.S. National standard and 3 to their first US Olympic Trial standard. Since 2010, his swimmers have recorded 58 NAG Top 10 swims, 24 Top 3 swims and seven first-place finishes nationally.
2012 Highlights:
Two athletes named to the US National Team
5k Open Water National Champion
Swimmers take silver and bronze in 10k at Open Water Nationals
