229 Columbus Ave, New York, NY | Directions 1002340.776306 -73.979175
Mon-Sat 12pm-11pm; Sun 12pm-10pm
Neighborhoods: Lincoln Square, Midtown
Best Italian in the area!! – I have always enjoyed this place and know when I have friends visiting we can go here and the food & service is always consistantly stellar. Recently, I went here solo (yes I was craving their fresh pasta) and as I walked up to the door and said "Table for one", I realized it was prime time on a Sat night!! I was so embarrasssed -but guess what?? They treated me as if I was a party of eight - full service & everything. I love the bread & oil here, and the daily specials never fail.
Excellent, reliable Italian – I have eaten here at least 50 times. The food is simply amazing, the service is excellent as well, the staff are extremely friendly. Unfortunately, the entire UWS also knows this, because the restaurant is always PACKED with a wait list. The Penne alla Grappa is the best dish in the house, but it's hard to choose, especially when they tell you the specials for the night. Halloween is a fun night, the waitstaff dresses up. Pomodoro even has a mention or two on old Seinfeld episodes ("Pomodoro is where you go when you break up with people"). 5 STARS, easy.
mngordo – Aside from occasionally feeling a bit "crowded" (and it should be) what can be said for this excellent Italian UWS favorite. Peter the host, and owner, makes you feel right at home. ALL dishes are beautifully prepared and are large in size. Wine by the glass (house wine is a really large pour, and is of decent quality). Wine list is also adequate. Mixed drinks are fine. But it always comes back to the food, the wonderful food. Several other reviewers have noted "consistency" as a wonderful quality of this restaurant and they are correct. The only inconsistency might be the service, but even that has improved of late and it wasn't bad to begin with.
Go there and you won't be sorry.
Excellent Neighborhood Place WIth Great Service – Pomodoro Restaurant is one of the most popular places to eat on the Upper West Side. The food and service are always excellent. One of the best Italian places in the city.
A lovely place for the occasion – The service here is rather bland - the waiter being of the smirked-nose etiquette. The restaurant is one of many on the Avenue so reservations are not needed despite the impressions that you might get. The decor inside is nice to observe while you wait and wait for the food. For an Italian restaurant it is rather average with its dishes, however the creme de la creme is their own bakery. The white bread filled to the brim with tomato soup is alone worth coming for and paying for. Otherwise, this is something that is tolerable but not distinctive.
best risotto! – i have come here numerous times, usually for special occasions since its a little pricey, but oh so good. the waiters are very attentive and friendly. the food is absolutely amazing - can really never go wrong with whatever you order.
No frills - fab food!! – Very unassuming from the outside but inside is a warm, homey atmosphere, simple but delicious Italian classics and great service. There are tons of little italian joints like this on the UWS - but this is one of the best ones. And the price is great too!!
Consistent! – This place is the restaurant to go to for good, consistent Italian food. Nothing on the menu is weird or fusion like, but it just tastes good and the drinks are mixed well. Nice homey place to take a small party to or your significant other for a romantic dinner.
My favorite restaurant in NYC – I've been diing here for 10 years and have never been disappointed. Great food at reasonable prices. I take all of my out of town guests here and have never regretted it. Peter (the owner and host) is the best.
Molto bene! – I have been to this restaurant many many times and have NEVER been disappointed. The hostess & service are the best that I have ever experienced in NYC. The food is delicious and the ambience is wonderful. Only bummer is that they don't take reservations.

Kennedy Center Conservatory Project Hosts CIM for Sixth Year, Performances Streamed Live
CLEVELAND, OH (February 10, 2009) - On Saturday, March 6 at 6 p.m., CIM students will perform as part of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts (Washington, DC) Conservatory Project for the sixth consecutive year.
You can see their performances on www.kennedy-center.org. Other past performances are also archived on the site.
The Conservatory Project began in 2004 as part of the Kennedy Center's "Performing Arts for Everyone" initiative and aims to develop and present young talent from the nation's leading conservatories. Washington audiences are introduced to young performers with extraordinary talent in classical instrumentation, vocals, jazz, musical theater and opera - the next generation of professional musicians.
CIM will be represented by flutist MADELINE LUCAS (student of Joshua Smith), cellist MATTHEW ALLEN (student of Melissa Kraut), pianist ERI NAKAMURA (student of Sergei Babayan), soprano MEG HAMM (student of Mary Schiller) and the Fairmount Trio, comprised of violinist SHANNON THOMAS (student of Paul Kantor) cellist NATALIYA PSHENYCHNA (student of Stephen Geber) and pianist FRANK HUANG (student of Antonio Pompa-Baldi).
"I'm delighted to be able to help CIM present some of our finest young talent in the upcoming Conservatory Project at the Kennedy Center," said Dr. Adrian Daly, dean, who will attend this year with CIM's President Joel Smirnoff. "Over the past several years, this venue has allowed America's top music schools to showcase not only the quality of the students but also the level of training available though the core values of CIM and through the CIM experience. On a daily basis, it's so energizing to see how the individual students here develop their talent and identity over the course of the year."
Sixteen conservatories and music schools are participating in the project, including The Juilliard School, The Peabody Institute, Eastman School of Music and Curtis Institute of Music. Each participant is responsible for selecting performers and sixty minutes of programming for their evening. The format is designed to distinguish each institution by allowing them to select and feature talented students who are ready for the exposure and experience this performance opportunity provides.
In addition to the Conservatory Project performance on March 6, the National Symphony Orchestra has invited a student from each participating institution to be part of John Adams: Perspectives, a residency with the composer. The performance takes place on Monday, May 17 in the Terrace Theater, conducted by composer John Adams. Oboist DANIEL RIOS, student of Frank Rosenwein, has been selected to represent CIM in this performance.

The 2014 Nissan Altima®
Chrome details don't end with the iconic Nissan badge. Complementing the sweeping profile are subtle accents on the door handles and trunk lid, and around the windows, headlights, taillights, and grille.
Chrome details don't end with the iconic Nissan badge. Complementing the sweeping profile are subtle accents on the door handles and trunk lid, and around the windows, headlights, taillights, and grille.
High Intensity Discharge (HID) xenon headlights provide a brighter, more defined beam pattern. Set to automatic, they respond to light conditions outside, and when the wipers come on, so do the lights after just four swipes.
High Intensity Discharge (HID) xenon headlights illuminate the road ahead with a brighter, more defined beam pattern than conventional headlights.
Chrome details don't end with the iconic Nissan badge. Complementing the sweeping profile are subtle accents on the door handles and trunk lid, and around the windows, headlights, taillights, and grille.
We made
a big deal,
even of the
little things
Detailed. Right down to the details.
Chrome's appeal lies in its deeply reflective qualities. Even distant objects look as sharp reflected in chrome as they would if you were looking at them directly. A fine point admittedly, but it shows you how much thought we put into even the smallest details, starting with our badge. Just wait 'til you see what we did to the rest.
Premium Space.
Premium Spaciousness.
Luxury interior design.
We softened the edges, sculpted the lines and took the idea of open space inside. Then we quieted everything down. The result - a serene cabin of unexpected spaciousness and luxury, where premium materials combine to create an atmosphere of class that is simply a class above.
The most beautiful
Altima you've ever built
Stunning exterior design.
The premium exterior design of the Altima is achieved through laser-measured panel fit and and sculpted steelwork. But to really appreciate what we built-in to our most innovative Altima ever, you'll need to finish it - your way.
Go. Or just go farther.
Outstanding acceleration. Incredible efficiency.
You've got choices. You can go with Nissan's legendary 3.5-liter, 270-hp V6 that treats you to sports-car style performance even while it sips fuel at an impressive 31 MPG on the highway. [*] Or you can go with the class-leading 38 MPG highway provided by the spirited 182-hp 4-cylinder. [*]
The Altima's CVT virtually eliminates gears by using a single metal belt that runs around a pair of variable-diameter pulleys. Once a transmission isn't limited by fixed gears, it can operate far more effectively. So whatever your right foot asks for, CVT responds with the perfect engine speed.
Active understeer control
Altima's Active Understeer Control system sets even the sharpest turn straight. It works by braking the inside wheels for better control through corners for a more confident feel behind the wheel.
Redesigned rear suspension
Altima's 370Z®-inspired multilink rear suspension has been designed to deliver instant steering response and maximum tire contact for handling that'll tackle the passing lane as easily as the carpool lane.
luxury car
ZF Sachs shocks
Altima comes equipped with ZF Sachs shock absorbers. You know, like the ones found on luxury cars from BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche... Yeah, those ones.
Lighter. Faster. Stronger.
We gave Altima class-leading highway fuel economy [*] and powerful acceleration. How did we do it? We put it on a diet. The engine, body, and chassis are all lighter, and we slimmed down the aerodynamics. The result—hit the gas and Altima will propel you from 0-60 faster than you can say "hang on".
We built the Altima to slip through the air with more ease and less resistance than ever because frankly, drag is a drag.
Hit the gas and the Altima will propel you from 0-60 faster than you can say "hang on".
Altima is one of a select group of Nissan vehicles to wear the PUREDRIVE™ badge. PUREDRIVE™ is a key part of our commitment to achieve lower levels of CO2 emissions. The technology focuses on improving fuel efficiencies and reducing CO2 emissions. And that's something we all can smile about.
Street smarts
Intelligent technology
What if your car could tell you when its tires had enough air? If it warmed itself up or cooled itself down for you without you even being there? Or turned on the headlights automatically in the rain? Would you call it smart, or simply brilliant?
right down to
your coccyx
Zero Gravity Seats
NASA research determined the posture astronauts naturally take in the weightlessness of space. Nissan Engineering used this research to develop front seats that optimize comfort and reduce fatigue. Thanks for the tip guys.
Never lose sight
of what's important
Advanced Drive-Assist® Display
From optional turn-by-turn navigation, to caller ID, the Advanced Drive-Assist® Display does it for you in one central location. It's specially designed to make it easy for you to get info quickly, allowing you to focus on what matters most—driving. [*]
Safety Shield
Altima's got your back...
Like every Nissan vehicle, Altima comes equipped with a suite of standard safety, driving, and convenience features designed to inspire confidence behind the wheel, and help make every ride better, safer, and more enjoyable.
Click on + to explore more safety features.
...And ready to light
the way forward.
Enhanced headlights
Automatic headlights respond to light conditions outside. And if your wipers are on so are the headlights - automatically after 4 swipes. Illuminated driving courtesy of Altima.
Nissan Intelligent Key® with Remote Engine Start System
Your exclusive pass to your Altima
The Nissan Intelligent Key lets you tap a button on the door handle or trunk to unlock them while your keys stay in your pocket or purse. And the available Remote Engine Start System [*] lets you warm up or cool down your Altima before you get in.

The grass was not greener in Seattle. Not by a long shot; just ask Chone Figgins. After a stellar career with Angels, Chone Figgins pulled a Adrian Beltre and jumped ship from So-Cal to Seattle.
Well now that that's all over, the Los Angeles Dodgers are taking an absolutely zero risk by signing Chone to a minor league contact, in hopes that he'll compete for a bench position. Dee Gordon and Justin Sellers are expected to be his main competition for in infield, but Chone also has plenty of playing time in the outfield, making him a bit more versatile.
The only problem with Chone is he hasn't played at the major league level since 2012. And… when he did play at the major league level he hit just .181 in 166 at-bats. Oh yeah he also didn't make the cut to play for his home town Miami Marlins in 2013.
In conclusion, Figgins is not a risk to the Dodgers, as long as he remains in the minors.

Lounges >C Lounge & Cigar Bar

Mon-Wed: 7pm-2am, Thur-Sat: 7pm-4am, Sun: 7pm-12am
Neighborhoods: North Miami Beach
I had a wonderful time at c-lounge. Great crowd, amazing new drink, best Dj and etc. Always have fun by myself plus with my friends. Always meeting new and fun people Goes their 4 time a week Wednesday and Thursday for karaoke, and Fridays and Saturday they confirmed it to a Night Club great time.
Fun night! – Had so much fun here...never been to a cigar lounge before, but when in Miami right??
Smokes and drinks – Can't ask for a better night than that! And good looking people too ;)
Great night out – C-Lounge has such a great mix of people--definitely one of those you can go and end up meeting new people. I'd say one of Miami's best hidden gems, but it's only a matter of time before they blow up!
Another fun night! – This is really awesome place to hang out with. My friends had really enjoyed the night while drinking and talking with interesting people. Great place.
beautiful views – Had so much fun my first time at C-Lounge. Didn't really expect such a fun night, I really had no idea what to expect actually lol. Really glad I decided to go outside of my comfort zone and try something new.
North Miami's best lounge – No joke. This place combines all of my favorite elements of night life. Class, decadence, great alcohol, attractive people and smoking allowed indoors! It's like you step back in time. Wish I wasn't usually in NY for business so I could spend more time here.
A lotta fun – Never been to a lounge of this nature before...kinda makes all the other ones I've been to seem wack. Sick bar and sick views...and the women are very beautiful too ;)
Hot spot! – Wad upppp. I felt like I was hanging out with Barney Stinson when I spent a night here. Never been to Miami before and this was definitely a highlight of my trip.
classy lounge – starting to wonder if the "C" stands for classy lol. but seriously, c lounge knows how to party. you can go here for a relaxing night and have just a few drinks or you can really let loose and stay out until the wee hours of the morning. which ever you choose, you'll always have a good time.

10 Cuddly Cable Knit Throws
• Ursula Throw from Ikea $29.99, cotton
• Cable Knit Throw from Barneys New York $1,150, cashmere
• Cable Knit Throw from Country Curtains $59.50, acrylic
• Royal Velvet Cable Knit Throw from JC Penney $40, cotton
• Lakeland Cable Throw from Land's End $89, cotton
(Images: As credited above.)
5 Comments
I suggest finding a local knitter to purchase your throw from. There are talented individuals in most communities who are passionate and practiced knitters who could make a professional-quality throw in the colors and fiber of your choice. Shop local!
Taking the cable knit throw idea to another level, I just picked up a couple of lampshades that were covered in a cable knit fabric from Target. Super fun and funky, and they add a really nice warm glow to the lamp light.
Pottery Barn offers another throw that's even better than the one listed above. It's cable-knit on one side, faux fleece on the other. COMFIEST.BLANKET.EVER.
I have the Ursula throw from IKEA and I love it. My husband is actually napping with it as I type.
If you know how to knit, it looks like the person selling the the one in the picture is selling the pattern for it too. I don't in fact know how to knit, so I guess I'll have to find someone to do it for me LOL.

First Matthew calls Jesus son of David, a title of the rightful heir to Israel's throne (as in Jer 23:5; 33:15; Ps. Sol. 17:21-23; 4QFlor). Other lines of evidence support the claim that Jesus' family stemmed from this royal lineage (for example, Rom 1:3; b. Sanhedrin 43a bar.; Euseb. H.E. 3.20; see also Meier 1991:216-19), and ancient Jewish polemicists never bothered to try to refute it. Thus Matthew opens and closes the genealogy with a title for Jesus that is significant but rare in his Gospel: Jesus Christ, that is, the messianic king (1:1, 18).
Next Matthew calls Jesus son of Abraham. This is especially significant because subsequent chapters further portray Jesus as Israel's representative, the epitome of its history (for example, 2:15; 4:2; see Kingsbury 1975:12; Longenecker 1975:141-43). As the heir of Abraham par excellence, Jesus can communicate Abraham's promised blessings to his people. (Some teachers regarded Abraham as the first Gentile convert to Judaism, which may also fit Matthew's theme.)

I'm writing a function which has to determine and return the visibility status for (3D) objects.
Now, you can picture how many times per second this function is being
Speed is critical.
A lot of optimizations went into it and I ended up using 16 flags
(besides the other variables) which get declared, used and destroyed
every time the function code is being called, executed and terminated.
These flags simply need to hold a 2-state value, wether it is true/false or 0/1 makes no difference.
I can't make up my mind about the data type of these flags.
I made some simple benchmark test using both bool and dword for the
Surprisingly the benchmarks showed pretty much the same results (100 millions operations in roughly 6.2 seconds -on a Intel PentiumIII 1 GHz-).
At first I ran the bool bench, and then the dword bench.
They outputted a 6.2 secs for bool and over 7.4 for dword.
But then I ran dword bench before bool bench and now the output was 6.2 for dword and, again, over 7.4 for bool :wacko:
So it seems it's a sort of first come first serve: whoever runs first
gets the best result (might be due to CPU heat raising during the 1st
Well, in the end both data types give the same results.
So I can't decide, what is better: dword or bool?
Thanks for reading :)

RICHMOND, Va. — NASCAR conspiracy theorists certainly will love what transpired at Richmond International Raceway Saturday night.
A caution with eight laps to go, caused by Clint Bowyer's spin, helped his Michael Waltrip Racing teammate Martin Truex Jr. catch Ryan Newman in the points standings and squeeze into the Chase.
"Obviously I'm happy," Truex Jr. said. "Shocked. We had such a rough night. Honestly, we came down pit road after the race, nobody knew what was going on."
Newman, a lame-duck driver with Stewart-Haas Racing, was the odd man out on the night the 12-driver field was set for the 2013 Chase for the Championship. Truex edged Newman on a tiebreaker, based on better finishes throughout the season.
"They are teammates," Newman said. "I don't know if he looked at the scoring pylon and knew I was leading. It doesn't matter. If that was the case, I'll find out one way or the other. At the same time we still had the opportunity to make our own destiny and win it on pit road, and we didn't.
"That being said, we're out."
Newman was leading the race at the time, and a victory would have secured him a Chase spot. He ended up third in a race won by Carl Edwards.
"My car was tight as hell," Bowyer said. "The thing slid 10 feet and blew out. Something was going on. It is what it is.
"I got one friend and two that hate me, I guess."
Going into the night, Jimmie Johnson, Bowyer, Kevin Harvick, Edwards, Kyle Busch and Matt Kenseth already had qualified and Kasey Kahne, with two victories, had clinched at least a wild-card spot.
It left 10 drivers, including Jeff Gordon, scrambling for five spots.
It was heartbreak for him, too.
Gordon was in the Top 10 in points when the caution came out but finished just one point out of 10th at the end of the race, behind Joey Logano.
Gordon began the night at the front, leading the first 49 laps in the Auto Parts 400. Midway through the race, he found frustration after a loose right front wheel seemed to crush his Chase chances.
"I have no rear grip," Gordon said right before the halfway point of the race, scheduled for 400 laps.
"Just keep fighting," said crew chief Alan Gustafson.
Gordon did, but it was not enough.
Gordon, the beneficiary of fortuitous track position that allowed him to catch up to the lead lap, moved his way up the field and had a Top 10 spot in hand until the caution came out with eight laps to go.
Brad Keselowski began the night 15th in the standings and winless, but he rumbled into the lead from the third starting spot, holding onto hope that he might sneak in as a wild-card qualifier.
That didn't happen either.

A new Wisconsin Historical Society website is coming mid-May 2014! See a preview >>
Among the First Peoples, Paleoindians of Northern Wisconsin
Museum Archaeology Program archaeologists excavated a rare site type in northern Wisconsin, a Late Paleoindian campsite and workshop. The artifacts and information recovered have helped to increase our understanding of these first peoples. The following text is adapted from "The Deadman Slough Site: Late Paleoindian/Early Archaic and Woodland Occupations along the Flambeau River, Price County, Wisconsin" by Norman M. Meinholz and Steven R. Kuehn of the Museum Archaeology Program, WHS.
The Deadman Slough site (47Pr-46) is located along the North Fork of the Flambeau River adjacent to Deadman Slough in northwestern Price County. This area served as a focal point for Native American settlement for thousands of years. Archaeological excavations produced a unique assemblage of artifacts and settlement information relating to the region's earliest inhabitants. The evidence includes faunal remains, which are not commonly recovered from such ancient sites. Natural decaying processes tend to break down and degrade organic materials such as animal bone, shell, wood and seeds. Often the physical evidence of past peoples consists of non-perishable items such as stone tools.
Early Peoples at the Deadman Slough site
The earliest peoples at Deadman Slough were Native Americans who camped here between 8000-6000 years ago. They produced stone artifacts that have traits of both Late Paleoindian and Early Archaic tool making traditions. It is possible this is the result of separate occupations by Late Paleoindian peoples and Early Archaic peoples at the site. However, the presence of traits of both Late Paleoindian and Early Archaic stone tool manufacturing has been reported from other archaeological sites in the region that are assumed to represent a single occupation.
Archaeological evidence shows these early people had a broad strategy for survival that depended on knowledge of seasonally available plants and animals. The peoples living at the Deadman Slough had access to a variety of rich natural environmental zones and resource areas. The faunal and floral resources provided food, as well as raw materials for tools, clothing, shelter, and ornamentation. Lithic raw materials and mineral deposits in the area provided materials for tools and other items. The Deadman Slough site was a seasonal campsite, the Paleoindian peoples did not live at this location year-round. Evidence, such as turtle remains, suggests the site was used during the warmer seasons when such animals could more easily be hunted. The site location lies exposed on a high overlook, and the lack of evidence of houses or forms of shelters also support a warm season occupation.
In general, the Late Paleoindian chipped-stone tools are primarily made from Hixton orthoquartzite. It appears this stone was brought to Deadman Slough as partially worked preforms or bifacial blanks and may have been stored or cached at the campsite. Locally available lithic materials such as igneous and quartzite rock were also used on-site to make stone tools.
A unique type of artifact consists of large, heat-fractured bifaces These bifaces had been broken through exposure to very high temperatures. The fragments were found scattered across a portion of the site and not recovered from any recognizable feature or artifact concentration. Many of these fragments could be joined to recreate the original tool shapes. These bifaces were made from either Hixton orthoquartzite or other similar Cambrian orthoquartzites that occur in western Wisconsin.
Samples of orthoquartzite biface fragments were submitted to the Indiana Geological Survey for Oxygen Isotope Analysis. This technique has proven useful in determining the probable source of quartz-rich stone used in making artifacts. Recently this method has been employed to source orthoquartzite artifacts and samples recovered from Silver Mound, Arcadia Ridge, and other Cambrian orthoquartzite sources in west-central Wisconsin. The results suggest there are at least two sources for quartzite used to make bifaces found at the Deadman Slough site. One source is the Silver Mound quarry/workshop complex in Jackson County, Wisconsin. This material would have been brought to the Deadman Slough either through trade or by travelling to the Silver Mound quarry site.
To learn more about Silver Mound orthoquartzite visit the Mississippi Valley Archaeology Center at the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse.
Evidence for heat-fracturing and/or intentional breaking of artifacts has been found at a number of Late Paleoindian sites in the western Great Lakes. Archaeologists have associated this treatment of artifacts with some form of ceremonial activity or the cremation of human remains for burial purposes.
Sites containing evidence for ritual activities include Renier, Pope, Elmwood Island, Gorto, Cummins, Crowfield, and Caradoc, although only the Renier and Caradoc sites had similar heat-fractured bifaces. At the Deadman Slough site, the fractured bifaces are the result of ceremonial activity, but not related to burial activity. The intentional burning/breakage of the large bifaces and points suggests the ritual offering of these items during a sacred ceremony. Only the Renier and Cummins sites actually contained remains identified as human cremations, and grave goods were only associated with the Renier cremation. While the lack of identified human remains at other sites could be explained by poor preservation, it is also possible that other types of ritual activity occurred which have not been fully recognized.

California's the place to be for big-name guests at convention breakfasts
Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images
Nancy Pelosi: one of the bazillion bigwigs set to speak at the DNC's California Democrats breakfast.
California's a reliable blue state with the largest delegation at the Democratic National Convention and while we may not a swing state, we still get a lot of love from the Party Powers That Be.
Here are a few of the "bigger" names headlining at the California Democrats' breakfasts: Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi (she's from California, so no big surprise); but also House members John Lewis, Jared Polis, Donna Edwards and Xavier Becerra.
Both Senators — Boxer and Feinstein — are dropping by to speak, as well as Labor Secretary Hilda Solis.
State officials are also taking the mic: Secretary of State Debra Bowen, Assembly Speaker John A. Pérez, Attorney General Kamala Harris, Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom, State Controller John Chiang, Board of Equalization member Betty Yee and Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones.

John Terry admitted emotions were mixed in the dressing room following Thursday night's draw against Sparta Prague, which sets us up for a last 16 tie with Steaua Bucharest.
We were behind from the 16th minute until Eden Hazard's injury-time equaliser sent us through with the draw we needed having won in the Czech capital a week earlier, but Terry was disappointed with the team's performance on the night.
'I was disappointed with the way we started but delighted to go through,' the captain said. 'We left it as late as we could and sometimes that's the best way but it wasn't our best performance. We're in the next round though and we're happy with that.
'Qualification was an absolute must. We're disappointed to be out of the Champions League and watching it on Tuesday and Wednesday night was enough motivation for us to kick on in this one, we're in it to win it and nothing changes from that. After that we'd have a chance with the Super Cup, so still some big competitions to play for.'
Petr Cech echoed Terry's sentiments, admitting it was a tough 90 minutes.
'The game didn't go the way we wanted,' he said. 'We wasted too many chances and they had a good counter-attack and managed to score. We had so many chances and their goalkeeper was brilliant, we hit the post, there were blocks and clearances and you felt it was one of those games but in the end we managed to break through, and it was the best finish.
'They are quite a young team, very talented and fast on the counter. If you don't take your chances it becomes more difficult and we wasted too many.'
Terry was also upset with the number of chances we allowed the visitors.
'They had two counter-attacks in the last five minutes which is not good at all, so we're disappointed with that, but we're through,' the 32-year-old said.
'It's about being clinical. We showed that in the last minute.We kept going and going, had a lot of attempts on goal and didn't get it but the persistence was fantastic, and credit to us.
'It was a great goal from Eden, the manager rested a couple tonight, and he was great to have on the bench. He came on, showed sharpness and got the goal to top it off.'

In universe of Planet Ocho, it's more about the brand than football
Story Highlights
Football used to be Chad Ochocinco's world, now it's about self-promotion, hype
Ochocinco has danced and romanced on TV and now will wrestle an alligator
He had some terrific years, but now all Ocho will be remembered for is his antics
Politely banished from playing professional soccer, rudely bumped from the back of a bull and fully in need of his next attention fix, Chad Ochocinco will be wrestling an alligator now. You could say this is brilliant self-hype, yet again, from Planet Ocho. Or you could say an alligator has lots of teeth.
There was a time way back, pre-Twitter if you can imagine, when Ochocinco was Johnson. He didn't attempt to dance or romance on television. He didn't ride steers or commit soccer. He might have seen an alligator once or twice; he lives in South Florida. He never plotted to wrestle one or capture one or teach one how to communicate in 140 characters.
Chad wasn't a brand.
He was a football player.
I did a book with him after the 2005 season. The Bengals had won the AFC North title and might have gone further in the postseason if Carson Palmer's knee hadn't been obliterated in the team's first playoff game. Chad was fun then. He made lists of defensive backs he boasted couldn't cover him. He was almost always right. They couldn't. After the book came out, he made sure they all got copies.
His end zone celebrations were good-fun hysterical: He borrowed an Irish high-step from Riverdance. He used a pylon as a putter. He proposed to a cheerleader. These were testaments to Johnson's exuberance, not stunts to pump his Q Score.
Chad Johnson loved football. It was his identity and his ticket to fly. He might have clowned with the lists and the dances, but he knew what made them all possible. Nobody cares about Michael Jackson if he can't dance and sing.
I spent several days in Chad's hometown of Miami after the '05 season, researching his past. He hooked me up with one of his Liberty City pals, who guided me around Chad's boyhood haunts. On one, blue-perfect day, I asked Chad to come along. He declined politely. He would be staying at the house where his grandmother raised him.
Watching the NFL Combine on TV.
That Chad went with Palmer to Indianapolis for a Monday night game, so the pair could watch the sweet synergy between Peyton Manning and Marvin Harrison. That Chad waited for a free moment with Jerry Rice, after the Bengals played the Raiders in 2003, his third season.
That Chad cried after dropping a crucial would-be touchdown pass in a 28-21 loss at Indy in 2002, then spent years praising the inspiration and wisdom given him after that loss, by then-Bengals quarterback Jon Kitna. Chad Johnson had an ego, but he wasn't maniacal about it.
And now?
Now, you're nothing if you're not a brand.
The Cincinnati Bengals have a $6 million option on Planet Ocho this year. Odds are they'd rather wrestle an alligator than pick it up. Once the face of the franchise, Ochocinco has seen the Bengals take a wideout with the fourth overall pick in the draft (A.J. Green) and give more playing time to younger veterans Jerome Simpson and Andre Caldwell.
Coach Marvin Lewis, something of a surrogate father to Ochocinco, has gone from encouraging the six-time Pro Bowler, to tolerating him to questioning his commitment to football. Meanwhile, rumors have Ochocinco being dealt to every NFL team with a working area code.
The parallels with his friend and former teammate Terrell Owens are compelling. Each was raised by a single mother and grandmother, the biggest contrast being Chad's mother left Miami when Chad was 5. They share a similar sense of neediness that has spilled into their offseason pursuits.
The difference is, Owens will be a Hall of Famer if he doesn't play another down. He's second alltime in receiving yards, tied for second in TD catches and is seventh is total receptions. He caught nine passes for 122 yards in Super Bowl XXXIX, six weeks after he broke his leg.
Until recently Ochocinco, 33, had a puncher's chance at making the Hall. Between 2003 and 2007, he averaged 93 catches and more than 15 yards a catch. Those averages have plummeted in the last three seasons. Some of it was due to injury. Some of it was Ochocinco's need to empire-build, away from the game.
On the matter of legacy, the pair who last summer called themselves Batman and Robin after Owens joined the Bengals now sit on the same fence: As good as T.O. has been, he will be remembered more for antics than football. Ochocinco's six Pro Bowls lose all perception battles to his need to be noticed.
You might suggest he's smart for carving a niche for himself. Life after football won't be as hard now that Ocho is a brand. He has more than a million followers on Twitter. Every time he unveils a new stunt, we listen. But what's the shelf life on attention-grabbing?
The national media has used him. In early '08, when he wanted out of Cincinnati, ESPN used Chad's rambling, semi-coherent sound bites for laughs and ratings. With every new antic, people recall less of his superb football talents and more of his 1.5-second rodeo ride. If you're a great athlete, is that what you want?
The player who once devoted his life to being a Hall of Fame receiver now works his sideshows and his thumbs. Not everyone can be Evel Knievel.

AP Exclusive: Syrian rebels seize base, arms trove
|Syrian fighters celebrate the victory on top of a tank they took after storming a military base in Aleppo, Monday, Nov. 19, 2012. (AP Photo/ Khalil Hamra)
BASE OF THE 46TH REGIMENT, Syria — After a nearly two-month siege, Syrian rebels overwhelmed a large military base in the north of the country and made off with tanks, armored vehicles and truckloads of munitions that rebel leaders say will give them a boost in the fight against President Bashar Assad's army.
The rebel capture of the base of the Syrian army's 46th Regiment is a sharp blow to the government's efforts to roll back rebels gains and shows a rising level of organization among opposition forces.

Fast forward a year and Duke is once again sporting some preseason hardware after winning on an island. They've come home and will face a top five team from Columbus. So what's different this season? The answer lies in the Duke backcourt where Quinn Cook appears to have answered the call for an elite floor general. Duke is also far more battle tested this season, having already defeated two top five teams in Kentucky and Louisville.
Meanwhile, this will be the first true test for the Buckeyes who have rolled through Albany, Rhode Island, Washington, and Kansas City en route to a 4-0 record.
The game will tip off at 9:30 PM EST and will be broadcast on ESPN by Brent Musburger and Jay Bilas.
"Only the Catamounts from Western Carolina. I can still remember, it was like 28-28, and I blacked out, and I woke up and it was 62-30." — Thad Matta
"They missed some really, really easy shots to start and that kind of ignited us. That was one of those game that'll rank up there [in his career at OSU]. That game was one that allowed us to become connected and really learn something about ourselves." - Matta on his team's performance a season ago versus Duke
"My favorite part about going on the road is we have 15 guys against everyone in the building. It shows how close you need to be as a team. You have to understand that nobody is going to help you aside from your teammates." - PG Aaron Craft.
Series Notes: This will be the seventh meeting between the two programs with each team having won three times before. Ohio State will be making its first trip to Durham, N.C. The teams are 2-2 at neutral sites and 1-1 in Co- lumbus. This is the third time the teams have met in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge, with each team winning once. Last year Ohio State won by 22, while Duke's win was by 16 during the 2002-2003 season.
Two losses from a year ago: A season ago the Buckeyes relied heavily on William Buford and Jared Sullinger. Both players have moved on to the professional ranks, which has required more scoring and all around performance from the upperclassmen. Answering the call has been the junior class of Aaron Craft, Deshaun Thomas and Lenzelle Smith Jr - all of whom started a season ago. Craft averages 14.3 points a game, up from 8.8 a season ago. Thomas tallied 15.9 ppg. as a sophomore and is up to 24.0 ppg. this year. Smith Jr. has upped his scoring from 6.8 to 11.5 points per game.
Thomas, a junior preseason All-American, scored a career-high 31 points against Washington and tallied 25 vs. Rhode Is- land to average 28.0 points per game over two contests at the Basketball Hall of Fame Tipoff Nov. 17-18. Those efforts earned him his second career Big Ten Player of the Week award. Thomas grabbed 10 boards against Rhode Island and eight vs. the Huskies to average 9.0 rebounds over that weekend. A season ago he hit Duke up for 18 points and five rebounds.
Don't sag off 'em: The Blue Devil program has a reputation of relying on the perimeter jumper, but on Wednesday night Duke may very well be the second best three point shooting team on the floor. The Buckeyes currently lead the country in three point shooting percentage, having connected on a remarkable 32-of-67 attempts from behind the arc as a team. Inidividually, Thomas is shooting 48 percent from the perimeter (12-of-25), while Craft is hitting just under 47 percent (7-of-15). Smith, Jr has knocked down eight of his 13 three point attempts (62 percent).
For the season the Buckeyes are averaging eight made three pointers per game, and, traditionally, when OSU hits 10 or more threes, they are nearly impossible to beat. Under Thad Matta, Ohio State teams are 54-9 when reaching double digits from 3-point range. Opponents are 37-58 all-time against Ohio State and 9-32 during Matta's tenure when making 10 or more treys.
Value the basketball: Not only does Ohio State make opponents pay when getting open looks, the team is also excelling at taking care of the basketball, boasting a 1.63-to-1 assist to turnover ratio as a team. It begins with Craft, the junior point guard who started his career by building a reputation as a defensive stopper. Now, as a junior, the 6-foot-3, former four star prospect is the unquestioned leader in Columbus and is running the show with a practiced hand. On the season Craft has recorded 21 assists while committing just three turnovers. Backup point guard Shannon Scott has been on the same pace as his mentor, recording 15 assists against just three turnovers in three games.
Defensive prowess: As noted above, Aaron Craft began his career withe reputation of a lock-down defender. He's already third on the school's all-time steals list with 177 in a little more than two years played, and last year he took home Big 10 Defensive Player of the year honors. Backcourt running mate Lenzelle Smith has also developed the reputation as a tough on-the ball defender, and Ohio State has a pair of shot-blockers defending the rim in Sam Thompson and Amir Williams (both averaging 1.5 blocks per game). Through four games the defense has overwhelmed opponents by holding them to just 57.2 points per game and shooting percentages of just 38 percent from the field and 33 percent from the perimeter.

Tom Sebastian
I worked at Compass Health full-time for less than a year
Pros – Lots of locations and programs to work for. Ok benefits. Some employees are for real doing a good job.
Cons – Mgmt. provides workplace bullies a safe haven. Impossible schedule for a sustained time working all 3 shifts every single week for weeks on end (graves, swing & day). Excellent work not expected, personal friends are hired, so they are protected no matter how much work they refuse to do.
Advice to Senior Management – Take time to listen to employees and invest in learning how to provide a harassment-free environment and don't expect new employees especially to deal with office harassment.

I worked at Compass Health
Pros – One of the few places to work in the San Luis Obispo County, lower level workers tend to be supportive of each other, patients are remarkable and inspiring individuals, company offers workers a chance for entering the local College's nursing program
Cons – The company lost over 30 employees who reported being mistreated as the reason why
understaffed patient ratios, lack of essential supplies for patient care, letting experienced staff members to hire new people at a lower rate, false anonymous hotline, callers to the anonymous hotline are called in for retaliation, callers names are publicly given to others, promotions are given to those who are involved with upper management, work schedules are changed at any time without notifying employees
Advice to Senior Management – Please support your workers, profit is not worth more than happy patients and happy employees
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

I have been working at Compass Health
Pros – Not many. Good benefits if they'll give them to you. Stable industry. Healthcare isn't as affected by the economic downturn. Central Cali is a nice place to live.
Cons – Culture is lacking in integrity and morals. Upper management misrepresent company values. Very shady HR practices and poor communication throughout entire organization.
Advice to Senior Management – Talk is cheap. Don't pretend to have high morals and values. Improve communication throughout all levels of company. Improve HR practices for all levels of company.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Answered on 28th February 2008:
I find it essential to schedule my work time. The nanny comes from 12-4 M-F, and I aim to work from 12:30 until my son wakes from his nap (usually 5 or 6). Being a WAHM still give me the flexiblity to switch the schedule if something comes up, but having the set routine is good for both my son and I.

My son attends preschool two mornings a week, and I go to a small gym across the street. I take an aerobics class, then use a portable DVD player to do a yoga video (the aerobics room is free after the earlier class finishes). This works for me because I work from home in the afternoons and so my mornings are generally free.

100 Books Before Age One
Posted on Wednesday, January 22, 2014 by ThatLibraryLady
Research shows that children who are exposed to 30,000 words a day before the age of three do better in school and have better verbal fluency skills. Part of that exposure includes reading to children. So set yourself a new goal to read 100 books to your child before the age of one. They can be short or long. You can repeat the same book . . . more »

I used this to water our tomatoes last year. Keeps the water off the leaves and directly to the roots. Very modular, easy to customize. No leaks between connections. I bought three more this spring for our asparagus, pumpkin and other vegetable garden.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
Super easy to put together and use. We have ours hooked up to a timed irrigation system for a raised garden bed. Allowed us to do four 25 foot rows with one kit and no hassle. Worked fabulous first try and we had it put together in about 10 minutes. Really happy with the product and would highly recommend.
- Was this a gift?:

- Easy to set up
- Good coverage
- Great price
- Needed More In Basic Kit
Best Uses
- In Ground Garden
- Raised bed garden
I've used individual emitters, in-line emitters, and drip "tape" systems to water my in-ground and raised bed garden areas. None of them have been as effective as this soaker system appears to be up to this point. It was super-easy to install. It seems to be giving water to a good depth. For my gardens, tho, I could have used more of the soaker hose and attachments than came in the kit. I had purchased some additional components but not quite enough to give the coverage I want for my in-ground garden. Don't want to order a whole second kit so come spring I'll see what I can purchase and add.

- Soaker Hose Inconsistent
Best Uses
- Berry Bushes
- Fruit trees
- Greenhouse Raised Beds
- Remote Locations
- Vegetable Beds
installed the system in 10 greenhouse raised beds, 7 outside raised vegetable beds, around peach and apple trees, in strawberry beds, around raspberry, blueberry, and beach pea bushes, also in raised cranberry "bog", and in a 25' tomato "bed" - lots of different uses -
from 1 "remote" spigot w/ a splitter the system can go in 3 different directions depending on need; all you have to do is connect the quick coupler as needed!
The soaker hose soaks a very limited range - not efficient either in raised beds or on ground - our solution: we used the garden hose (super) and inserted small barbed 360 degree sprayers - works PERFECTLY now!
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
I use the hoses to conserve water and it does a great job of watering my garden plants.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Works perfectly
Best Uses
Installs quickly,easily, works beautifully. Needs to have more connectors. We will be purchasing more for all of our gardens.
Best Uses
This is one of the worst products I've ever used. It did, in fact, set up easy, but I've spent countless hours replacing the soaker portion of the hose because they easily leak and split. My water bill has nearly doubled because I didn't notice water gushing out of my soaker hoses! Don't waste your money on this product.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Easy set-up
- Easy To Install
Best Uses
- Ornamental Beds
- Veggie Beds
I only gave 3 stars because it's not even been a full growing season since I installed the system. I'll revise this post after a couple seasons. One of my criteria of a good product is longevity. :-)
But the system was very easy to install. The hardest part was the planning. And now that I've done it once on a small veggie bed(s) area, I know I'd have no reservations at all about crafting a larger area.
The hardest part was deciding how many lines of soaker was necessary for my beds. I initially snaked just one through the tomatoes. But that doesn't spread the water out very far. So I revised my layout to have a hose on both sides of the rows of tomatoes. I do believe it's the type of soil that will dictate how much distance is needed between hoses. I guess experimentation is key.
So please don't judge this product on your first use of it. I believe there needs to be a learning curve. This is true about how hard to turn on the water and the amount of time the water is to be left on between waterings. It's all dependent on your soil type.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Easy to assemble
- Easy to customize
- Soaker Hose Stiff
Best Uses
- With Push Button Adaptor
- With Water Timer
Great product for watering my vegetable garden. The soaker system is so easy to assemble and to customize for my rows of beans as well as single plants of zucchini, tomatoes, herbs, etc. For plants like tomatoes that need more water, I wrapped the soaker hose around the plant several times. The soaker hose is a bit stiff for wrapping around. I use this system with the water timer/flow meter + push button 2-tap adaptor -- so convenient and hassle-free. One of the connectors was defective; Customer Service responded to my problem by sending me a new connector immediately. Thanks!

CU: Home • A to Z • Campus Map
Elihuu, a startup company whose slogan is "meet your manufacturer," has met an investor -- a group of University of Colorado Boulder graduate students.
The students last week put $30,000 into Elihuu, an online software platform that connects product designers with manufacturers who can make their wares.
The Colorado economy continues to grow in 2013 at a magnitude that exceeds previous expectations going into the year, according to economist Richard Wobbekind of the University of Colorado Boulder's Leeds School of Business. Midway through the year, Colorado's job growth rate is up by about 2.3 percent -- a gain of about 52,400 jobs from May 2012 to May 2013.
The confidence of Colorado business leaders has continued its strong upward trend, surging into the third quarter of 2013, according to the most recent Leeds Business Confidence Index, or LBCI, released this week by the Leeds School's Business Research Division. The third quarter LBCI posted a reading of 60.5, an increase from 58.1 last quarter. Expectations measured positive -- at 50 or higher -- for all of the metrics measured by the index.
Colorado will continue on the road to recovery and add a variety of jobs in 2013 across almost all business sectors following a positive year in 2012, according to economist Richard Wobbekind of the University of Colorado Boulder's Leeds School of Business.
Consumers should take the time to prepare themselves by researching prices and quality before they hit the stores or Internet this holiday shopping season, according to University of Colorado Boulder Professor Donald Lichtenstein.
Being prepared can save consumers money, steer them away from overspending and even change their way of thinking about purchasing gifts during the holidays, said Lichtenstein, chair of the marketing department at CU-Boulder's Leeds School of Business.
The opening ceremony of the Olympics—with the parade of nations and athletes and the lighting of the Olympic flame—reminds Jordan Valutas, 2007 alumna of the University of Colorado Boulder Leeds School of Business, why she works so hard as client services manager at CoSport, a leading provider of consumer hospitality packages and individual event tickets to the Olympic Games.
SEEDS and Sustainable by Design, CU's two newest Residential Academic Programs, feature an interdisciplinary approach to sustainability and innovative problem-solving.
People who made New Year's resolutions to eat healthier or lose weight might also want to brush up on their math skills.
In a new study, marketing professor Donald Lichtenstein found that nutrition labels on packaged food products in the United States can lead even the most health-conscious consumers astray, if they don't "do the math."
Every gift matters, no matter the size.
