Not right?

Westminster, Colorado

The resort is a collection of bungalows right on the beach. Each one has either one or two rooms. Ours was a single story. Each has a front porch area with a hammock. No phone, no TV, no air conditioning. The evenings were quite breezy, as you were very close to the ocean, so we did not get too hot. If you have a room further back from the sea, I would suggest getting one with AC.
The Shangri-la is divided into two sections, an older on and a newer one. The newer one has bungalows that are a little taller, with rooms on three floors.
The price included breakfast and dinner. Both were very tasty and service was wonderful. The staff goes out of their way to try to get to know you.
The grounds are immaculately kept - I always saw staff cleaning and raking the beach.
There are two pools and a hot tub. The bar is set off from the beach, but you don't have to walk too far for a drink. On the beach are a number of palapas for guests, along with numerous lounge chairs. We never had a problem finding a chair on the beach, and it's only a few feet from your room.
Bottled water was supplied daily to your room.

RockShox HP 2-Stage Shock & Tire PumpWhat you're looking at is the ultimate behemoth of shock/tire pump combos. If you're going on a backcountry trip where bringing two pumps is a requirement, this is the all-in-one you've been looking for. As a shock pump it's rated to 300psi. Extended to use as a tire pump and you'll hit your desired pressure no problem. We got it up to 40psi without breaking a sweat.
If you have a fork that is worth anything, it has adjustments that require a pump and like anything with air, they can leak or pressure changes with the temperature. This pump eliminates the need to carry a shock and a tire pump. Let's face it....we spend enough money to lighten our bikes as it is.
I have noticed that every time I pump up my fork and then detatch the hose, I lose about 10psi. I quickly reattach the hose and the dial is 10psi lower than when I pumped it up. It's annoying but I just overfill it the first time now. I don't know if the dial is incorrect or if it's something with my fork. I also tried to inflate my tires with presta valves (with the valve core still installed) and a schrader converter screwed on with no luck. I don't think it's even set up for that so I don't knock it for it, but I just thought I'd give it a shot. Folds small and the dial is easy to read (if it's actually correct).

Reebok is back with another basketball banger in the form of the Men's Reebok Shaqnosis Basketball Shoes. These kicks were the ones worn by the man himself back in the 1995-1996 NBA season. This shoe lives up to its name-it is hypnotic and truly stands out from the standard colorful basketball shoes of its era.
Built in a way that stays very true to the likes of the original, the Shaqnosis features a smooth, breathable leather upper and rubber outsole that delivers solid traction and grip whether you're on or off the court. The high design creates support and stability for fast breaks and quick cuts, while the visual patterns on the exterior are hypnotizing to onlookers.
In conclusion, these kicks are heat. Cop a pair before it's too late.

How to Construct Histograms on the TI-84 Plus
You can use the TI-84 Plus to create histograms. The most common plots used to graph one-variable data are histograms and box plots. In a histogram, the data is grouped into classes of equal size; a bar in the histogram represents one class. The height of the bar represents the quantity of data contained in that class.
To construct a histogram of your data, follow these steps:
Store your data in the calculator.
Your data does not have to appear in the Stat List editor to plot it, but it does have to be in the memory of the calculator.
Turn off any Stat Plots or functions in the Y= editor that you don't want to be graphed along with your histogram.
To do so, press [Y=] to access the Y= editor. The calculator graphs any highlighted Plots in the first line of this editor. To remove the highlight from a Plot so that it won't be graphed, use the
keys to place the cursor on the on the Plot and then press [ENTER] to toggle the Plot between highlighted and not highlighted.
The calculator graphs only those functions in the Y= editor defined by a highlighted equal sign. To remove the highlight from an equal sign, use the
keys to place the cursor on the equal sign in the definition of the function, and then press [ENTER] to toggle the equal sign between highlighted and not highlighted.
Press [2nd][Y=] to access the Stat Plots menu and enter the number (1, 2, or 3) of the plot you want to define.
The first picture shows this process, where Plot1 is used to plot the data.
Highlight On or Off.
If On is highlighted, the calculator plots your data. If you want your data to be plotted at a later time, highlight Off. To highlight an option, use the
keys to place the cursor on the option, and then press [ENTER].
to place the cursor on the type of plot you want to create, and then press [ENTER] to highlight it.
Select to construct a histogram.
enter the name of your data list (Xlist), and press [ENTER].
If your data is stored in one of the default lists L1 through L6, press [2nd], key in the number of the list, and then press [ENTER]. For example, press [2nd][1] if your data is stored in L1.
If your data is stored in a user-named list, key in the name of the list and press [ENTER] when you're finished. Notice that the calculator is already in Alpha mode, waiting for the first letter in the name of your list.
Enter the frequency of your data.
If you entered your data without paying attention to duplicate data values, then the frequency is 1. On the other hand, if you did pay attention to duplicate data values, you most likely stored the frequency in another data list. If so, enter the name of that list the same way you entered the Xlist in Step 6.
Press [ZOOM][9] to plot your data using the ZoomStat command.
ZoomStat finds an appropriate viewing window for plotting your data. The next step shows you how to redefine the class size in a histogram.
Press [WINDOW], set Xscl equal to the class size you desire, and then press [GRAPH].
The class size (Xscl) must be
If it isn't, you get the ERR: STAT error message.
If necessary, adjust the settings in the Window editor.
The data plotted here consists of test scores. For such data, you naturally want the class size (Xscl) to be 10. But when the histogram is graphed again using this class size (as in the first picture), the viewing window doesn't accommodate the histogram. To correct this, adjust the settings in the Window editor. The second picture shows the result of adjusting these settings.

Here are a couple videos of the event in the Bahamas. While watching the exhibition match, I was amazed at how quiet (relatively speaking, of course) Sharapova was. Why can't she play like that all the time?
Sometimes when tennis players don't feel the pressure of the tournament on their shoulders, they play a better tennis. They feel themself more relaxed during an exhibition match than a tournament match.
Aside from that, here may be a find. Watch the kids' clinic vid to note the little girl in black over lavender--who likes to be close to Maria. Watch her serve--her movements are remarkably mature.
Thanx to fabiosky for picture.
Great quality videos. For the match the camera person should have climbed up one of the top stands so we could watch the whole court view as opposed to one player at a time. Made me feel like I was watching them practise hitting the ball rather than watch a match.
The kids clinic was fun. Thanks for the links, teddy.
@Dartagnan: Not what I meant
@Paul: You may be right, although if you ask me, she was just imitating Andy Roddick (or Maria when she was using that motion). The girl in the white and pink looked pretty good, too. There was also a young boy (yes, I know we don't care about those here) in red, white and black who looked good.

NOAA Fisheries has honored Miami charterboat operators Jimbo Thomas and brother Rick for tagging more than 1,000 sailfish for the agency's cooperative tagging program aboard the Thomas Flyer. A news release issued by NOAA says the brothers are the first to surpass 1,000 tags for any Atlantic billfish species. On average, the Thomases tag more than 120 sailfish per year.
Tagging fish helps scientists better understand their mortality rates, movements, and overall health of the stock. That data is obtained when tagged fish are recaptured.
The Thomases, based at Miamarina at Bayside in downtown Miami, also are top taggers for the South Carolina-based Dolphinfish Research Program. They tagged 159 dolphin in 2012.
• Although South Florida's Atlantic sailfish season so far has been lackluster, anglers are having a banner winter on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica. The first leg of the Los Suenos Signature Billfish Series that concluded Jan. 19 set a record for releasing 1,412 billfish — 1,406 sails and six marlin — among 38 boats in three days. The winning boat was Dragin Fly, skippered by Tucker Smith, with 62 sails and one marlin, good for $47,500.
• NOAA Fisheries has turned down two petitions filed last year seeking to have white marlin listed as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act. It's the second time since 2001 that the agency has denied requests by James Chambers and the Center for Biological Diversity to implement special protection for the billfish species. In its so-called "90-day finding," NOAA wrote that the petitions "do not present substantial scientific information" to warrant a listing.
• Biscayne National Park is getting a new superintendent. Brian Carlstrom, deputy superintendent at Chesapeake & Ohio Canal in Hagerstown, Md., will begin his new job in March, replacing Mark Lewis, who is retiring. Carlstrom has worked for the National Park Service for more than 20 years.
Big Cypress National Preserve, the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission and the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service announced that they will extend the public comment period on the draft management plan for allowing hunting in the "Addition Lands" of the Big Cypress. Officials will accept comments through Feb. 14. More information: http://parkplanning.nps.gov/.
• Alex Bristol of Team Cressi speared the largest fish — a 31-pound African pompano — in the Jack Kearns Classic V hosted by South Florida Freedivers last weekend in Miami. Top team honors went to Team Cressi's Harolf Dean and Jose Santeiro. Team Octopus Have Feelings, with Manny Menendez and Manny Chica, speared the most lionfish, 18. Henry "Ballenita" Torres of Team Speared got the largest lionfish at 16 1/2 inches.
• Still haven't decided who to pick in your Super Bowl pool? Maybe you ought to follow the lead of tipsters Hugh and Buffett. The two resident manatees at Sarasota's Mote Marine Laboratory on Friday both chose the Baltimore Ravens to win the Super Bowl. They made their selections by swimming to special targets in the aquarium marked with team logos. Lest you think they're just guessing: Mote officials said Buffett has selected the correct team each of the past five years, and Hugh has picked the winner three of the past five years.
• The Color Me Rad 5K kicked off its first year with 5,000 participants, with a lot of first-time runners coming out for a fun-filled run.
There were no timers or first-place medals, but the proceeds from this color run will go to benefit the Miami Dolphins Foundation and several other charities.
Covered in color from head to toe, Fernanda Ulvert, 24, of Brickell, thought this race was a bright change from what she has seen at other events.
"It was different [than other races], you got to participate a lot more," Ulvert said. "I ran in one that we all we had on glowsticks and glow-necklaces. As we ran in through the dark. [Color Me Rad] was amazing. They color bombed us at different stations and we got there late so they concentrated on me and my cousin. My face is orange like a bad tan, I have color down into my roots and I am pink, blue, orange and green. It was so much fun!"
The thousands of participants ran through a course laid out in the parking area of Sun Life Stadium where stations where setup with volunteers armed with color bombs (packages of colored cornstarch) bombarded the runners as they passed through.
With the proceeds from the 5K going to help out the local community, it was a race where everyone who got to participate was a winner.

By Marta Lawrence
New Mexico Sen. Tom Udall
New Mexico Sen. Tom Udall has requested that the Consumer Product Safety Commission take up football helmet safety. In his letter to Commission chair Inez Tenenbaum, the Democrat asks the group to consider the adequacy of current voluntary helmet safety standards, citing concussions and head injuries as the motivating factor for the investigation.
"Although football is a contact sport that will always involve some risk, safety equipment can help reduce injuries," wrote Udall.
Estimates suggest that 1.6-3.8 million concussions occur from participation in sports- and recreation-related activities every year. Although football accounts for the highest rate of reported concussions during games (3.1 per 1,000 athlete exposures), other sports, including helmeted and non-helmeted sports, also pose a risk for injury, according to data from the NCAA Injury Surveillance Program.
Rules to reduce these injuries by protecting players from receiving intentional or flagrant blows to the head are enforced in college football. The NCAA has also adopted a policy requiring institutions to have a concussion management plan on file as a condition of membership.
The plans must address student-athletes who exhibit signs, symptoms or behaviors consistent with a concussion. The rule requires the affected student-athlete to be removed from practice or competition and be evaluated by a healthcare provider with experience in concussion management. Student-athletes are not permitted to return to activity for the remainder of the day and not until they are cleared by a physician such as a team doctor.
Additionally, all student-athletes must be educated about the symptoms of concussions and sign a statement accepting responsibility for reporting concussion-related injuries and illnesses to the medical staff. Some studies suggest that the concussion rate is artificially low due to underreported incidents of injury.
In the letter to the CPSC, Udall notes that helmet safety has improved tremendously since voluntary standards – recommended by the National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment in 1973 – were adopted by helmet manufactures. "Yet this voluntary industry standard does not specifically address preventing concussions caused by less severe blows or from rotational acceleration," he argues.
Children and younger athletes are at particular risk, says Udall, because the standards do not differentiate between helmets used by adults and those used by youth. "This 'one size fits all' approach may not be appropriate for child athletes who are not as big and strong as professional players," he writes.
Helmets used at the collegiate level must comply with NOCSAE standards, have a face mask and a secured four- or six-point chin strap. The NCAA also provides a guideline for helmet fitting and removal and recommends that institutions examine helmets daily for fit and weekly for damage.
In 2006, NOCSAE published a new standard testing method designed to more closely emulate on-field impacts believed to be responsible for mild traumatic brain injuries.
Udall is a member of the Senate Commerce Committee, which oversees the work of the CPSC. The CPSC has jurisdiction over more than 15,000 consumer products, including sporting equipment.

The field of Rehabilitation Counseling began in the early 20th Century with legislation designed to help people return to gainful lives. The history of modern rehabilitation focuses on assisting persons with both physical and mental disabilities. The discipline of rehabilitation covers areas of vocational, psychological, social, and medical.
The discipline is currently taught at over 100 institutions in 37 states and practiced all over the United States and in many other nations throughout the world. Rehabilitation Counselors are trained at the master's level and several undergraduate rehabilitation services programs also exist, but entering the discipline requires graduate level education and earning a master's degree in Rehabilitation Counseling. See a detailed list of colleges by state that provide rehabilitation programs.
Master's level programs range from about 40 - 60 credit hours. Our Rehabilitation Counseling Program consists of 53 semester hours of course work, practicum, and internship and is accredited by the Council on Rehabilitation Education (CORE). Students consistently find placement in a variety of settings. It is not uncommon for graduates to enjoy several job offers from which to choose. Upon completion of course work, a student is eligible to sit for a comprehensive examination that provides a nationally recognized and respected masters' level certification (CRC).
RHAB is Nationally Accredited by CORE
The Rehabilitation Counseling program at Kent State University is fully accredited by the Council on Rehabilitation Education (CORE) through 2018 www.core-rehab.org. The Master's degree program has a goal of admitting 10-15 students in each graduate cohort. The program admits each year in the fall, spring, and summer. Student outcomes are evaluated each year on a variety of different metrics that are part of the overall program evaluation. In terms of retention, 38 of the 42 students who were enrolled in our program during the Calendar Year 2010 have graduated from the program for a retention/graduation rate of 90%.
Full time students complete the program in 20-24 months on average. Kent State University's full-time in state tuition rate for academic year 2013-2014 (two semesters) is $10,444.00. By virtue of completing the program, graduates are eligible to sit for the National Certified Rehabilitation Counselor examination. Our graduates are not eligible for licensure as Professional Clinical Counselors in the state of Ohio.
Currently, the graduate program has a total of 46 students. The program has two full-time tenure track faculty and five part-time adjunct faculty who teach the CORE accredited curriculum. The instructor to student ratio is 1:6. The average instructor rating for rehabilitation counseling courses for the 2012-2013 academic year is 4.63. The current grade point average of the students in the program is 3.79.
For the 2012-2013 academic years, a total of 14 students graduated from the program. 100% of students passed their clinical coursework. During the same 2012-2013 academic year, 92% Kent State's graduates passed the Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC) exam www.crccertification.com and 100% of the graduates are employed or pursuing advanced academic degrees. Our graduates work in a variety of rehabilitation settings including the state Vocational Rehabilitation program, private for-profit firms, community non-profit agencies, independent living centers, mental health agencies, substance abuse treatment facilities, corrections, hospitals, and colleges and universities.
Thirty-five percent of the students are from underrepresented groups, including people with disabilities. The program has one RSA training grant and numerous other funded projects that have generated over $2.5 million during the 2012-2013 academic year in student support in the form of tuition and scholarships.

The unfurling reality is that the hostile states and powers antagonizing Bashar Assad are gradually getting caught up in the labyrinthine Orwellian pitfall of their own folly and that they are consciously or unconsciously working in the best interests of the Zionist regime.
In addition to the active role the Saudi-backed Wahhabis, CIA and other western intelligence organizations are playing in Syria, there is one entity, namely Israel which is stealthily espying every single development in Syria.
The top spy chief implicated why Assad should go and how it would damage the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The antagonistic policies of Turkey have left President Bashar Assad with no choice but to grant autonomy to the Kurds in Syria who can foment dilemma for the Ankara government and get Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan into hot water.
The two are fondling terrorism and extremism by throwing support behind the insurgents in Syria. They know that a popular uprising in the true sense of the word is not clearly discernible in Syria and that what has been taking place in Syria is a string of militancy and terrorist operations funded by the Saudis and the Qataris and some western countries who are waiting to reap the benefits of their atrocities in case Bashar Assad's government collapses. Such a day, if it comes, will open a new chapter of horror in the Middle East with no end in sight.

24 hours
Neighborhoods: Near North Side, Central
Great Hotel, great for business trips – Great hotel, with TONS of amenities. I've stayed there several times when I'm traveling to Chicago, and I'd stay there again in a heartbeat!
Distinctive digs with modern amenities and beds so heavenly they're hard to roll out of. – In Short
With programs designed for both business travelers and families, this property takes service seriously. Business travelers can take advantage of guest office rooms stocked with phone, fax and printer. For families, a kids' club provides coloring books, bath toys and a phone line dedicated to bedtime stories. All visitors are treated to signature Heavenly Beds with pillow-top mattresses, cushy down blankets and crisp white sheets ranging in thread count from 180 to 250.
Its all about the bed – This hotel was very very nice...it was extremely clean which i am notorious for being picky about and i loved it! THe staff was extremely friendly and curtious. The rooms were very roomy and the king size bed was unbelievably comfartable. I had a wonderful nights sleep. The sheets were goose down which was nice...starbux coffee to go ready for you in the morning in your room...a beautiful spa like tub to relax in...a great bar and lovely setting... The dessert menu was wonderful....loved it all. the price was extremely fair......your in the middle of downtown near everything and great to go to the house of blues which is right next door....
One of the Best! – I have lived in many hotels in Chicago before. Westin is one of the best hotel I have ever stayed. The bed and the shower are simply the best in town.
Inexpensive Elegance – My wife and I were looking for a place to stay in Chicago that didn't drain our budget, but provided a bit of class. Unlike some of the other comments provided here, our stay was VERY NICE. I booked online and when we arrived early, got booked into an upgrade and then had our car valet parked and luggage stored so we could go enjoy the city. The lobby/bar area was also very spacious to kick back and have a drink at. The room was very nice, and the "Heavenly Bed and Bath", were heavenly. If you're looking to pinch a couple of pennies and still stay at a nice place, it's a great spot.
Pure Joy! – The best hotel I've stayed in for years! The staff, from door to room, exudes happiness. I felt pampered and among friends. My "wake up" call was incredible. I am so use to electronic wake-ups that it was amazing to be awakened by a cheerful, friendly greeting from a wonderful woman who must love her job. It made my day!!
What a star! The beds and new showers cant be beat! No wonder they call them "Heavenly!" Fun area in River North - if you are in for business it is on the north side of the loop and the river north is fun with restaurants and nightlife. Two blocks to Michigan Ave. Rooms awesome - big,, cool decor, easy to work, views!
I work as a consultant and stay there 4 nights a week at least three times a month - and everyone remembers me!
Get upgraded to a suite if you are a member of Starwood Preferred Guest - romantic weekend, book the Celebrity Suite and bring your bubble bath : )
Cool new sushi bar opening up that I cant wait to try. This is my home in Chicago!

San Jose >Arts & Entertainment > South First Billiards
420 S 1st St, San Jose, CA | Directions 9511337.329713 -121.885768
Mon-Sat: 4pm-2am
Neighborhoods: Central San Jose, Central
this place is horrible, they are vague and lie about what you pay for, and they over price their drinks worse than the Grinch robs a house on Christmas, i don't recommend that anyone go here if they plan on buying food or drinks, if they keep treating customers the way they do they will be out of business in no time
Not dully satifactory – Nice thing was the DJ, was mixing it up well so not too much hip hop and not too much classic rock stuff. The service was good.
My complaint is they need to do something about the guy on the mike who mumbles stuff i couldn't understand. Later, a server told me he was announcing drink specials. HEY, i wanna know about those!!
Swell job turning the place around in my opinion.
great place for a beer!!!!!!! – I love the staff very friendly and cute waitresses hmmmhmmm lol
SOUTH FIRST STREET BILLIARDS DJ – First off, The South First street billiards DJ isnt all that great,(some cocky DJ named D-ROCK).He has no idea of what DJin is all about.He talks trash and is rude to those who requests songs.Why would anyone hire a guy like that.I dont recommend anyone going there,especially if D-ROCK is around.He`s a short asian guy with glasses.He isnt all that great to begin with and ruins the rep for South first street billiards.
great hangout, good tables – Have gone here a few times with friends and enjoyed myself every time. The tables are in good shape and there are plenty of them so you don't really have to wait around for one. Fun especially if you go a little earlier in the night before it gets more crowded. Convient that waitresses come to your table and take drink and appetizer orders. There is a bar you can sit at too, but I don't recommend it: the few times i've been there there was only one bartender and they were so busy that they never got to us at all. You have much better luck and no wait if you just order from the waitresses at your pool table. There are also a couple of ping pong tables and an air hockey table. Overall a fun, clean place to grab a couple of beers and have a good time with friends.
Amsterdam Billiards of the West Coast, which is a hell of a compliment – Just moved here from New York with my wife and if it weren't for this place, i'd be pining to move back. This place is not quite as nice as the famed Amsterdam Billiards in Manhattan. But then again, Amsterdam Billiards is considered the best upscale billiards club in the US bar none. Still, I like this place. The billiards tables are in great condition for serious players, nice simonis, etc., but the atmosphere is thankfully not teeming with nerdy hustlers or barflys. It has a nice upscale feel with the super high ceilings and the brick walls. Of course, it could be more upscale with a few more touches like lounge couches. Service is great and I really enjoy the mixed crowd. Anyway, glad to know I didn't leave ALL the good stuff back in New York. At least among all the wannabe upscale lounges for the nouveau riche and the plastic disneyland called "santana row" for sleek geeks, there's a place I can shoot stick with my colleagues at the end of the day that feels just right.
What a change!! Love this place again!! – Dropped by here for a company christmas party this weekend. When i first heard we were having it there i thought, well, guess our party budget was cut...but then i walked in and, bam! It was different than the run down place i was used to seeing a few years back. In a word: impressive.
Pool tables, lots of them, were all refurbished with new red felt that glowed nicely at night. there was a stage where i figure they host live music. there was this massive 30 foot HD projection screen showing UFC, and the buffet set up was spectacular. I had to do a double take and wonder if i accidentally walked into the Fairmont! The catered food was real good. Definitely not what i expected from a pool hall. They definitely upscaled this place from the last time i was here. The best part was no pimple head teens running around and I was able to order up my greygoose redbull because IT'S OVER 21 with a FULL BAR!!
Other nice things was the DJ, was mixing it up well so not too much hip hop and not too much classic rock stuff. The service was good.
My only complaint is they need to do something about the guy on the mike who mumbles stuff i couldn't understand. Later, a server told me he was announcing drink specials. HEY, i wanna know about those!!
Swell job turning the place around in my opinion.
SICK OF MEAT MARKETS? Great spot to hang with friends and relax – I LOVE this place. My girlfriends and I have been going for the past few months after my brother took me. It's a good alternative to the boring and EXPENSIVE meat markets around town and i can actually talk to my friends without some guy breathing down our necks every minute. This place is real and the people are cool. I've never seen drama and everyone just seems to chill. Love the art work, but some were taken down. Where'd they go???
Servers are sweet, bartenders are nice and make good drinks, and the dj is good and plays a nice mix of songs (also kinda cute, but shy). Food is so-so, except the nachos. I've never seen a menu so i don't know what else they serve except nachos and hot wings. But we always have good service so no complaints there.
I do have two complaints: drink specials and ping pong. Some ponytail guy garbles the specials over the speakers, but you can't always hear what it is and how much. Then you only get a few minutes to order them. They should post the special and make it last longer cuz i hate missing kamikazi specials!! Also, buy another ping pong table because waiting tp play gets old.
Other than that, it's the best place to go at night when you want quality time with friends in a safe, clean spot.
Great food, great service and ambience. Best pool hall in town! – This is a pool hall like no other. Its not your usual run down place. Nice paintings on a brick wall, nice lounge, nice bar. Classy. We had a company function yesterday and we were served "chocolate cake" drinks. Its a shot that tasted just like chocolate cake. One of the waitress was super sweet and gave us great service. She came around often and food was replenished immediately.
For a great pool hall like no other, go to First Street Billiards. The only drawback is that my friend was not feeling well after a few drinks but staff was really helpful and courteous. Highly recommended for another event. Mmmm ..perhaps my birthday?
the bartenders and ambiance make this place, everything else is bad – I came on a Sat night with some friends from out of town who like to play pool. First off, the place is very nice to be in. The music they were playing was very diverse. The best part of the night was the bartenders. I have to say that they were the friendliest and fastest bartenders I've seen in downtown on recent years. My lady friends from out of town who never drink still talk about the raspberry lemon drops that they recieved. (If you ever go there, it was the tall white guy with glasses and the dark bald bartender who helped us out.) He also made a shot that had a perverse name, but it was tasty. But the good experience ended at the bar. When I went to the pool table, the surrounding table was full of dirty glasses and dishes. Then our waitress was rude and not attentive to us. Also at the the end of the night the lady who cashed us out was very short with us and didn't have a smile on her face. It also took us 10 mins to pay ofr our pool I understand that it is 1:30 in the morning, but lighten up. Not to mention the price that we paid for a couple of hours of pool. Again, if you come here. keep your night at the bar and not the tables. You will be happier in the end for it.

The number of lower-limb amputations related to diabetes complications is growing-there were 86,000 such amputations in 1999 alone-according to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK).
In what is arguably Medicare's best-kept secret, the healthcare agency offers a specialized shoe program to help prevent complica-tions for people with diabetes and those with foot problems.
Called the Therapeutic Shoe Program, it offers patients in need one pair of customized shoes every year, two sets of inserts and a fitting by a podiatrist or shoe specialist. Patients have the option of ordering either a molded shoe or a depth shoe. In both cases, the shoe is designed to prevent pressure on the balls of the patients' feet.
"The number one reason people go to the hospital for diabetes is foot-related complications," said Sean Tunis, MD, MSc, director of Medicare's coverage and analysis group, in a June 26 New York Times article.
He told the Times that people with diabetes should have their feet inspected regularly. To encourage them to do so, Medicare recently ex-panded its coverage allowing patients who have lost some feeling in their feet to get two foot exams per year.
The program, launched in 1993, spent $54 million to provide 1.25 million pairs of shoes to patients in the year 2000, according to the Times article.

The snow and rain that delighted children and wreaked traffic havoc on the North Coast is expected to taper off early this morning, according to the National Weather Service.
Areas as low as 100 feet were "dusted with snow" on Friday, meteorologist Brian Garcia said. Some towns -- such as Orleans -- reported as much as 5.5 inches of snow by the afternoon.
"Above 1,000 feet is probably our hardest hit area right now," he said.
Another 6 to 8 inches of snow was expected to fall on inland areas overnight, according to Garcia.
The winter weather delighted many, but also led to car accidents and the closure of several sections of U.S. Highway 101 on Friday, according to Caltrans. Areas three miles north of the State Route 20 junction and seven miles north of Laytonville to six miles south of Cummings were shut-down, while northbound lanes were closed 3.5 miles north of Willits due to snow and car accidents. Chains were required on State Route 299 from 16 miles east of Blue Lake to 4.5 miles west of the junction with State Route 96.
Three cars traveling across the bridge in Rio Dell on U.S. Highway 101 spun out about 8 a.m. Friday, the California Highway Patrol said.
No one was injured, and no roads were closed as a result, Sgt. Martin Abshire said.
"As always, we're very thankful that people were wearing their seat belts," Abshire said. "As a result, people walked away from this without injury."
The Humboldt County Sheriff's Office is reminding snow seekers not to trespass on private property.
While the precipitation is expected to end, the cold weather will continue over the weekend with morning low temperatures in the mid-20s and highs in the mid- to high-40s in areas near Humboldt Bay. Garcia said inland areas are expected to be even colder, with temperatures dropping to the mid-teens in Willow Creek and as low as 6 degrees in Weaverville.
Friday marked the third consecutive day of record low temperatures for the date, but the readings are expected to rise by the beginning of the week.
"Tuesday into Wednesday will be the first above-freezing night," Garcia said.
Cold temperatures in Santa Clara County caused four deaths due to hypothermia, but none have been reported in Humboldt County, according to the Humboldt County Coroner's Office.
Emergency shelters were expected to open Friday night due to low temperatures.

If you want a good sense of how priorities have changed on Wall Street boards, take a look at the Bank of America proxy report filed with the SEC late yesterday.
The top boss and i-banking head saw huge pay cuts, while leaders in risk and wealth management were handsomely rewarded.
In a year when BofA posted a $2.2 billion loss, CEO Brian Moynihan garnered $1.9 million, down from $6.5 million in 2009, according to the filing. And Thomas Montag, who heads i-banking, saw his pay fall from $29.9 million in 2009 to about $831,000 (though those numbers were skewed by some contingencies).
Meanwhile, Bruce Thompson, the bank's chief risk officer, received $11.4 million. And Sally Krawcheck, head of global wealth and investment management, garnered $6.2 million.
Pay was much more stable at Charles Schwab where CEO Walt Bettinger received $10 million, only slightly less than his 2009 haul. Chuck had a decent year with a slight revenue gain, though its income was dragged down by a settlement of charges that it overstated the security of a bond fund.
Looking Up (FINS)
Planned layoffs in the finance industry fell to 1,525 in March, almost half as many cuts as were announced in February.
Crossing the Pond (DealBook)
Is Barclays U.S. bound? That's what two UBS analysts think, as British policymakers ponder rules to split investment banks from retail operations.
Jamie Weighs In (Bloomberg)
JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon said Wednesday that about 100 municipalities won't "make it" out of debt. But don't panic, Jamie advised, it's not "going to shatter America."
You're Hired (WSJ)
The U.S. private-sector added 217,000 jobs last month, according to payroll giant Automatic Data Processing Inc. That's 28% more than economists thought.
Career Default Swap (CNBC)
Bank of America swiped a senior swaps trader from Goldman Sachs. The firm seems to be building its rates trading business.
Meanwhile... (Financial News)
Brevan Howard, a British-based hedge-fund manager grabbed three former Goldman prop traders. Call it Volcker-rule brain-drain.
Spreading the Wealth (InvestmentNews)
About two-thirds of U.S. households with more than $10 million to invest work with at least four financial advisors, according to a new study.
Meet the New Boss (Financial News)
The head of Nomura's America's i-bank, Glenn Schiffman, is out after only about a year. Here's a look at Jim DeNaut, who's taking over.
However... (TheStreet)
A new wave of layoffs is rippling through the bank industry, as lenders cuts costs. At least five firms plan to hand out pink slips.

Hazing new hires is a favorite pastime at investment banks everywhere.
The latest stunt at one firm in London is a game called Meow , according to the Evening Standard.
The new recruit is given a phone number, and instructed to call it and say simply, "Meow."
The number rings the girlfriend of a managing director at a rival bank. Her cat recently died. So, basically, the recruits are being asked to torture her.
What makes the test fascinating is that there are three possible responses, only one of which is deemed meritorious.
Some recruits just do it, no questions asked. They are regarded as too servile. Others ask why they are being asked to say Meow and balk when they discover the backstory. The only way to "pass" the test is to discover the torturous purpose — and then be ruthless enough to carry out the task anyhow.

The small town of Yachats (pronounced "yah-hots") is at the mouth of the Yachats River, and from its rocky shoreline, which includes the highest point on the Oregon coast, trails lead to beaches and dozens of tidal pools. A relaxed alternative to the more touristy communities to the north, Yachats has all the coastal pleasures: B&Bs, good restaurants, deserted beaches, tidal pools, surf-pounded crags, fishing, and crabbing.

Hot chili was served up at the outside of the Ix Building in Charlottesville. A chili cook-off raised money for the local Ronald McDonald House.
The event was hosted by Red Shoe C'Ville. Visitors had a chance to sample a variety of chili's before casting a vote for the best.
"What it means for the Ronald McDonald House is that allows families, when they might have a sick child, to stay together. And that is just so important to stay together at the hardest time," said event organizer Brooke Jenkins.
The group hopes to hold another chili cook-off next year. They're hoping to raise $1,500 from this year's event.

Horrible Service - Very Unprofessional – I have eaten at the restaurant a few times now and have not been overly impressed with the food; however, my last experience was enough to keep me from ever setting foot in the restaurant again. I went to the restaurant with a friend of mine this last Sunday and the place was dead (only two tables taken when we walked in). I politely told the hostess that we were only going to be ordering desert and maybe a bottle of wine or coffee. She replied that we have to sit at the bar if that is all we are ordering. No problem I thought ? we walked over to the bar area and sat at a high top table just next to the bar (can actually see this in the picture they have on this site). The hostess rudely approached us and said we were not allowed to sit at the high top and that they have ?rules that need to followed?. I politely asked if all the tables were reserved and if they were planning on having a rush of people to which she responded ?rules are rules? Moral of the story is that I walked out and I do not plan on returning. If the restaurant was full I could understand (and even then feel it is wrong) but seeing how it was empty I feel as though it was a very bad play on their part and definitely not handled in the right manner. There are much better places to visit in this City.
Rose Pistola -- A North Beach Must... – What a great place to eat! I was there on a Saturday night and really enjoyed the Jazz. I happen to be a Spumante fiend and truly enjoyed the Ca? del Bosco ?Brut? Franciacorta, Lombardia.
We started with the Iron Roasted Skillet Mussels and Ahi Tuna Tartare with Green Olive Tapenade & Grilled Ciabatta as appatisers. Then we had the Mixed Grill for Two, which is a wonderful combination of Tai Snapper, Calamari, Mussles and Whole Shrimp. Then for desert you cannot miss having the Brown Sugar Corn Cake with Blueberry Basil Sorbetto & Fresh Blueberries -- it was out of this world!
For really GREAT service please be sure to ask for Jen -- she really makes this place ROCK.
Rose Pistola a Great Dining Experience! – This is only my second review online. In my last review I stated that Terzo was one of the best eating experiences in my 80 years in SF. Well, Mike over at Terzo recommended that I visit his wife here at Rose Pistola. Sorry Mike, I think I have to ammend my previous statement.
I've got to say that Jen at Rose Pistola was the shining star of this place. Her knowledge of wine and cusine was highly impressive. If she wasn't already taken and I wasn't swinging the other way...
I really had a great evening. I followed Jen's recommendations all the way and enjoyed everything!
Lauri, the owner sure knows how to pick her staff!
I'm definitely coming back!
If you don't ask for Jen when you visit Rose Pistola you have no one to blame but yourself!
Thanks Jen!
Love, love, love it – Love,love,love it.
I'v eaten there many times and The food is always great (super fresh & authentic) the servers are always friendly and knowledgeable. I would recomend it to anyone that likes "real food' or would like to try real italian
Extremely disappointed – My wife and I chose a late dinner to hopefully enjoy the live music while we dined. But the noise level in the building was so high, it was impossible to hear the band. Besides that, the service was poor, especially the bartender who continued a conversation for roughly five minutes while I waited to place my order. The food was average at best. Prices are way too high for such average food and service.
Disappointing – I had been to Rose Pistola's a few times in the past & thought that it was very good. Last night I took my fifteen year old son to the restaurant expecting it to be the same as it was in the past. Let me tell you that it was not! 1st, I had a reservation when most people were just walking in and we were seated at one of the worst tables in the house. I am of Italian descent and specifically Ligurian which is the type of food that they profess to serve. I ordered the Farinata for an appetizer which is made from Garbanzo Bean flour. It has a mild and slightly nutty flavor, when done properly. It wasn't, it was burnt to the point of not being able to taste anything but the charcoal. For our entrees, my son ordered the Osso Buco & I ordered the whole grilled sole. Osso Buco is veal shank which comes with a rich, deep sauce. The meat was over done to the point of being stringy and tough. They put Arugula on top which had a vinagrette dressing that was so acid that it actually overpowered the sauce and changed it's character, (it should of been dresed lightly with olive oil). As an aside, this dish traditionally comes with polenta but they took the easy way out and served it with mashed potatoes. The grilled sole was done well but then they laided it in a bed of greens they were covered in a lemony broth that ruined the crispness of the sole, again overpowering the delicate fish. My son had a diet Pepsi with a refill(which they charged for) and I had one glass of wine. The bill was $92 which I expected to pay but charge for one refill of soda? The wait staff are all young and as far as I could see were all girls, which were all standing around the kitchen talking to each other rather than being attentive to the customers.
All in all, the whole experience was just horrible and I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.
As an aside, this is my first review of a restaurant. I registered onto Citysearch because of how horrible this experience was and just had to vent.
Fantastic service, great food, huge wine list! – Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable on the wine list. He suggested a fantastic Barolo for under $100.
If we had been thin skinned, our meal might have been ruined by the 10 people ranging from ages 8-108 sitting behind us.
They demanded his attention, claimed to be ready, then made the poor guy stand there and answer 100 questions, on top of wanting to change every order from what was printed on the menu. Through all of that our server still dealt with them in such a pleasant manner.
I don't understand why people go out to a nice restaurant and demand that the restaurant cooks the food in a way other than the menu suggests. I understand allergies etc... but just not wanting to try something different is not a good excuse. STAY AT HOME if you want to do that.
Food Great, Service Great, Wine Great,
ok – We came here after work for some wine and a light dinner and found just that. Although our watiress was not knowledgable at all on the wine list which was somewhat annoying because the list is quite extensive. We had a few appetizers, all were tasty. The place is pricey, but has a nice atmosphere, but would have expected better service overall from the decor, attitude and price of the place. Had a nice time.
Kid Friendly – Made an early reservation in mid January for a party of 4, including my almost two year old son. Although we arrived before the kitchen opened, we were graciously invited to wait at the well stocked, comfortable bar. The bar staff was friendly, courteous, and professional.
At dinner our server, Natasha, provided assistance with entree choices and wine selection. Her recommendations did not disappoint. My osso buco was very good, and my dinner companions were pleased with their lamb chops. Appetizers and desserts were also very good. The service was excellent.
While Rose Pistola is not the place for your child's birthday party, we experienced no difficulty about our son, even after he became cranky. Of course, we did dine early, before the tables became exceedingly busy. This is a marvelous restaurant in a hopping area of San Francisco. It was on the expensive side but worth it.
Reliable fallback – I like the fact that you can order food here late, though it will be a limited menu. Good- not great- Italian. You don't get good house cured sardines everywhere, and the very-thin-crust pizza is very very good. The octopus is shockingly overcooked, even for Italian. Portions could be a bit more generous, and I'm not into humongous meals.

Texas heat can be beat with cool creations from this homegrown ice cream parlor. – In Short
Amy's Ice Cream has been a tradition since Amy Miller opened the first shop in 1984. With such homemade flavors as Mexican vanilla, sweet cream and, for the truly Texan, Shiner Bock, there's an ice cream concoction here for veryone. The sounds of tourists and Austin ex-pats grabbing their last taste of home can be heard over the sound of paddles beating candy or cookie mix-ins into ice cream scoops.

Tickets for Noblesville
Sad Day/Good Tomorrow
Cruise Info
Want great tickets for Noblesville. Also want to know what has happened to the presales - I haven't seen one for 18 months. Went to 13 shows in 5 years, but now am getting no opportunity to get presale tickets - I am missing out, just like tonight, could be at the Congress Theatre but not.
34 years ago devastating day, but with all that sorrow, I have next Thursday in Rockford to be thrilled to appreciate once again all that this band was and is
Really would like to know exactly where to go to sign up for the cruise. Hardest website to navigate & even though I have been a fan club member for years, I never seem to get the presale info. Really need to go on that cruise & see the band this summer - have not seen them since November. Any help would be most appreciated.
