AUSTIN -- At Urban Wine + Liquor in downtown Austin, shelves are lined with sought-after spirits from around the world. Manager and operator Buckley Wineholt is there to give customers the tour every day except Sunday.
"We're not a Monday through Friday business," explained Wineholt, whose store on Austin's bustling Congress Avenue sits neatly between downtown office buildings and high rise residential condominiums. "We work very hard on Saturday, so Sunday is a day to recharge and refresh, spend time with families and loved ones."
A new law aims to extend liquor sales to between 9 a.m. and 10 p.m. during the week and from noon to 10 p.m. on Sundays. The bill (HB 421) was filed by State Rep. Senfronia Thompson (D-Houston), who says traditional "blue laws" limiting certain types of business on the biblical day of rest are outdated.
"Tings change, a lot of people shop on Sunday," said Thompson. "That's become one of the biggest shopping days within our society, and people would like to buy on a Sunday as well as they can during the week."
"You can tote your beer home if you want to and you can tote your wine home, but you just can't tote your distilled spirits home on Sundays. You have to drink it where you buy it. That means at bars or restaurants," furthered Thompson. "Let them tote it home so when they get to drinking, they're not behind a steering wheel."
According to a report by the Legislative Budget Board, the extra day could bring the state nearly $8.5 million and local governments $2.5 million in additional revenue over the next two years. Supporters and opponents of the legislation packed a Tuesday hearing on alcohol-related bills before the House Licensing and Administrative Procedures Committee.
Ben Jenkins with the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States points out that 38 other states already allow liquor sales on Sunday, with 16 choosing to reverse Sunday restrictions over the last 10 years. The Washington, D.C.-based trade association represents thousands of distillers nationwide who believe there's money to be made by Texas following suit.
"States around the country are modernizing outdated blue laws for a couple of reasons," said Jenkins. "One, to give small business owners more choice of when they can open. Two, to give additional convenience in a modern economy. And three, to add revenue to the treasury without increasing taxes."
"Every state that's passed Sunday sales has seen an increase in revenue, annual revenue, in the neighborhood of five to seven percent with no negative social impact such as increased drunk driving or underage drinking," said Jenkins. "And that's very important."
"I think that there's probably a reason why liquor sales haven't been allowed here in Texas on Sundays," said Wineholt, who moved to Austin from Louisiana. "Having lived in New Orleans, I've seen what 24/7 liquor availability can do to a populace. It's not anything healthy."
"Really what it comes down to is responsible consumers of alcohol, if they know that they're going to be entertaining on Sunday for football games or whatnot, they buy up on Saturday," said Wineholt. "I just don't think that the responsible alcohol consumers are going to be the ones that are going to be taking advantage of this."
The crux of the debate lies in whether stores would be able to make enough extra money to justify being open another day. Many stores argue most customers would still buy the same amount spread over a greater number of days.
"It would really cannibalize the six day sales week into seven days with additional cost and hassle for the retailers," said Wineholt. "The retailers I'm in communication with really don't think that this is going to benefit us. What would benefit us would be being able to stay open until 10 o'clock at night. Giving us an extra hour of sales in the evening would be far more beneficial to us."
"You don't have to open on Sundays," countered Thompson. "Chick-fil-A doesn't open on Sundays but Whataburger doesn't stop selling chicken sandwiches because Chick-fil-A is closed on Sundays."
"All liquor stores would be open on Sundays, because they would have to just to stay in the mix to stand up to competitors," responded Wineholt.
What mix lawmakers could have in store when it comes to alcohol sales remains to be seen.

The global financial crisis underscored the profound challenges in financial instrument accounting, prompting the two leading accounting standards boards to get together in 2008 to address these issues and search for simplicity and consistency. However, they have been moving in separate directions. Now research conducted by PwC has provided another forum for a cross-section of a key stakeholder group – the investors and analysts – to add to this critical debate.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) proposes that all financial instruments are reported at fair value, including bank loans and deposits; the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) seeks to retain some of the existing financial instruments accounting model that uses a combination of fair value and amortised cost, depending on the nature of the financial instrument.
PwC surveyed a geographically diverse sample of investors and analysts to gain a better understanding of their perspectives on accounting and reporting for financial instruments. The findings offer insight into the use of financial instrument information in their analytical processes. The goal was not to establish definitive conclusions, but to capture and present views held by a variety of investment professionals.

1 of 2 things happened. The hole you droped the sink into was a little to small for the sink and the caulk did not come into contact with the counter top or there was not enough caulk, bead of caulk was to small.
Let the old caulk cure and then remove it well, silicone caulk does not like to stick to it's self. Dry fit the sink and be sure the area of the counter top where the caulk will be conacts the sink bottom. The counter must be clean and dry apply 1/4" or so bead of caulk to the sink and carefuly install sink. When you look at the sink edge, before you install it, with the caulk on it you should be able to see that the caulk will touch the counter when installed.
The basket strainer has a rubber and paper washer they both go under the sink, rubber to the sink bottom then the paper(friction) washer next. The friction washer lets you tighten the large nut. Use plumbers putty between the top side of sink and basket strainer unless Mfr. or instalation instructions say not to. Read them.
Have fun !!!!!

Tampa >Food & Dining > Yeoman's Road Restaurant
236 E Davis Blvd, Tampa, FL | Directions 3360627.926466 -82.453497
Neighborhoods: Davis Islands
great live music – walked in with some friends,and this acoustic duo,john dash wayne were playing. pink floyd,zep,david bowie,chili peppers,u2,they had dozens of jems. they really nailed these covers
as if they were their own. we couldnt leave,the place was jumping,and the micro brews were
excellent,because there were so many to choose from. i cant wait to see that duo again...
as a musician myself,i was very impressed. the pub is now my favorite tampa bay haunt.everyone was very friendly. two thumbs up...ybor should take note!!!
Great wings!!! Awesome beer selection.. Great staff!!! – I walked into Yeomans on a Friday night, the feel was bohiemin. What a mix from suits to sandles. I had a ruben with sweet potato french fries and my wife had the wings. The food was fabulous, as far as pub grub goes. The beer was cold and diverse. There was Pabst Blue Ribbon on draft, as well as, Delirium Tremmen. You can not get any more diverse than that!!!! Wheats Ales Lagers, Stouts,and Pilsners on draft...There were many micros, Dunedin, dogfish head, Rouge, Seadog, Great divide, to name a few. My personal favorite was Great White, Lost Coast brewery. There was a great musician playing, Shane Meade, my understanding this is the place to go for great live entertainment. A must check out if you are in the area...Davis Islands!!!
Island Hideaway – Another example of Old Tampa, this gem is the motherload if you like a cold beer and a great steak sandwich. The legendary Char-Ann sandwich has returned in all it's blazing glory. Also try the garlic butter wings and don't miss the sweet potato fries. Yeomans has the "Where everybody knows your name" comfort of a private club without an ounce of pretension or snootiness. The service is outstanding. It is perfect for lunch, Happy Hour, or late night camaraderie. With live music in a intimate setting or WiFi access for quieter times this placew has become my favorite haunt. And oh yes, did I mention they have over 100 different beers?
<b>True pub fans will find the path to Yeoman's Road, a haven of English brews and good times hidden on Davis Island. </b> – The Lowdown
Good food, great drinks, and lively chatter punctuate this classic bar in the strictly defined English pub tradition. Yeoman's serves up Shepherd's pie and big burgers throughout the day and into the night. The casual feel draws the young and trendy Davis Island residents, but lunchtime brings out business professionals from just over the downtown bridge. Look for the old-style red British phone booth or you'll miss this bar nestled in the small strip of Island shops.
Where Everyone Knows Your Name
Become a regular and you can start pinning photos on their bulletin boards with all the other Yeomen and Yeowomen. Whether you're in for fish and chips or just pints, Yeoman's Road is your destination.

Can America revive virtue of thrift?
Thrift, summed up by Benjamin Franklin as "industry, frugality, and generosity," is not just about "saving" or "bargain-hunting." Thrift is a big idea. Stated as a theorem, thrift is "the ethic of wise use."
Ever since "Poor Richard's Almanac" laid a claim on the American character, we have learned that "the way to wealth" is some combination of being productive, shunning waste and extravagance, saving and learning to build capacity, and being a steward who is future-minded about the better legacy we are meant to leave to our fellow citizens. To thrive in every imaginable condition, individuals and governments are challenged to use their resources most wisely.

Blue Bloods Review: On the Huntby Christine Orlando at .
The "Lonely Hearts Club" sent Jackie into harms way as she hunted down a serial killer taking out pretty, brunette prostitutes.
Jackie's got a plan. Since they've got no leads and she bears a striking resemblance to the victims, Jackie went undercover to lure out the killer. The surprising part was Danny's visceral reaction to stop her because, if the roles were reversed, you knew Danny would have had the same plan.
Even Linda called out her husband for being overprotective and pointed out that it seemed easier for him to watch his little brother go undercover than his female partner. Was it simply a male reaction or a fear of losing his partner? Danny explained that he'd lost more than one partner. How and how many? Why was Danny's luck so bad? I hope they delve back into this at some point because I'm curious.
It seemed odd that the one time Jackie showed up at the Reagan house it was dressed as a prostitute. Loved how Linda chided her husband to keep his eyes up. Those two are such a fun couple.
Jackie's reaction to some of the johns was the highlight of the night. The family values politician who she kindly labeled a schmuck and sent packing was funny. And how about the guy who took one look at her and scowled, "you'll do." Wow, what a charmer. No wonder he's paying for it.
Finally, it was good to see Jackie point out to Danny the difference between having her back and protecting her. Of course, leaving her alone in the hotel room after surveillance had called it a night was neither. You knew the killer was on the way the second he walked out the door. The only thing I didn't see coming was the mother/brother tag team. That was a nice, creepy twist.
Frank fought the blue flu. Having Frank fight with the union representative over budget cuts might have been a realistic story for a police commissioner but it certainly wasn't the most exciting. I wished we'd gotten more details about exactly what type of outsourcing the mayor was pushing for.
I was happy Henry turned down the job at Ajax. I know he'd have connections after four decades on the job but Henry doing corporate security just sounded tedious. I'd rather see Grandpa sharing advice with the Reagan clan over Sunday dinners.
Erin's new beau? It seems as though they've continued to throw men in Erin's path this season in the hopes that one of them will stick. Although Jacob was quirky and nice enough, I didn't see him being a match for Erin. Simply not enough chemistry there. Better luck next week.
Overall, it was another solid but not stunning episode of Blue Bloods. I'm always disappointed when the Tom Selleck storyline doesn't hold my interest. Thankfully, Jackie and her sarcasm stepped up and saved the night.

I totally agree with ElenaMar7. There is almost nothing about this show I dislike.
I was glad to see my favorite US Marshall, Marshall Mann (In Plain Sight) in this episode. It would be nice to see him as a recurring character. I don't think it's possible to have the same kind of chemistry he has with Bridgette Moynahan as he has with Mary McCormick but, I'd like to see him given the chance.
I loved last nite's show. Up to this point, I wasn't sure I liked Jackie. But we got to learn a little bit about her past last nite, and I like her alot more now. She's had to struggle to get where she is, and Danny's always had it pretty easy. I love how they make Danny and Linda like a typical married couple! It makes it more realistic.
I believe, as always, last night's show was A-one. I have not seen a bad episode yet. The cast always carries the great writing to a super show. Hope it lasts for many years. This is a much more realistic show than the other cop shows (with the exception of the very well-written "Detroit 1-8-7"). Love Tom Selleck and the entire cast. Anyone ever see "An Innocent Man"? He was so great and realized how great an actor he is.

The setup used for this portrait is about as simple as studio-grade lighting gets. One 60" umbrella with an inexpensive Canon Speedlite 320EX fired into it. The flash was remotely triggered by the Canon EOS 60D. The background is simply a white wall with the light feathered down over it. A white reflector was used to bounce some fill light into the picture.

Gerri's – The bartenders are the worst bartenders I have ever come in contact with and I have been many places in the USA and out of the country. They have good hotwings but I have had way better making my own hot wing sauce. Would be a 5 star place to go if the service was good but I have found thier bartenders to be rude and not very welcoming so even though they have good wings It is not a good place to go if you want to have fun because the bartenders are uptight and downright rude (unless you are friends with them or have lived across the street for your whole life like one guy I know and he does not even think the bartenders are nice). I give this place a B for thier wings, an F for service, and an F for a good time. My best advice is to get your hot wings to go.

Have you noticed that everything is gorgeous in Ina's world? Compliment yourself much Ina? She is always telling her guests to try this delicious thing or that gorgeous thing.
Her Christmas special was interesting, but "easy" entertaining in Ina's world is expensive. Cavier, prociutto and melon, smoked salmon and standing rib roast are not cheap. On the other hand, I made her butternut squash that was done in the oven and carmelized and it was simple and a huge hit.
I rag on her, but I love her recipes and have used some of them. I really want to get some of her cookbooks.

There are two types of baking sheets every cook should have. To get the most from your sheet stash, know when (and why) to use each one.
Everyday Food
Cookie Sheet
What sets a cookie sheet apart are its two (sometimes three) flat, unrimmed edges, which allow air to circulate around baked goods for more even browning and make cookie removal easier. Nonstick sheets cause cookies to brown faster, while insulated ones slow down the baking process, so adjust cooking times accordingly.

Rimmed Sheet
This kitchen workhorse is incredibly versatile: Its defining feature - rimmed edges that are about 1 inch high - make it perfect for roasting meat and vegetables. Look for a tray made of heavy-duty aluminum, which won't warp in high heat with will be broilersafe.

The Art of Anuradha Das: Breaking Boundaries, Voices of Hope
Sunday, March 16 – Friday, April 25
Reception: Sunday, March 16, 2 – 4 p.m.
Anu Das was born in India. For the past two decades she has been making prints, artist books and mixed media fabric and paper pieces, which deal with the social and cultural issues of women such as fertility, childhood, marriage, widow-hood and raising awareness among women in a patriarchal society.
Her work transcends geography to include women who are affected by conflicts on the borders of any country and who suffer from isolation, displacement, physical and psychological abuse, and disabilities. Her recent work addresses the diversity and profound nature of these struggles through the use of nearly extinct folk-art and the rich colors and textures of her birthplace, Orissa.
Das's mission is to communicate a sense of the positive in the midst of crippling violence inherent in the lives of so many Indian women and to assist them into the mainstream so that they can be emotionally, physically and economically independent. She continues to work with her late brother's Center for Disabilities in India where women design and sell their folk art, keeping the art alive and their dignity intact.
Das received her Bachelor of Arts from Mason Gross School of the Arts, Rutgers University. She resides in Maryland with her family where she continues to make art and be a voice of hope through her exhibits.
Babylon Great Hall

Reception: Sunday, Feb. 23, 2 – 4 p.m.
This highly diverse exhibit will feature the art of 14 dedicated art instructors whose service to teaching and learning has been the bedrock of cultural community outreach in Carroll's non-credit area.
Each of these skilled artists brings the creative energy of their life's work to the classroom. They each continue to make art in their own business, studio and classrooms, both locally and regionally. Impressive academic credentials and long histories of exhibition experience, make these folks exceptional arts professionals. Carroll is proud to present this exhibit in our most public and inspirational gallery space, The Babylon Great Hall. Painting, pastel, collage and photography mix it up in this lively exhibit that is the real thing!
The Con Ed art faculty includes Sarah Abel-Deluca, Chris Amman, Al Arnold, Walt Calahan, Joseph Paul Cassar, Leslie Chesley, Ken Ecker, Cathy Gilleland, Kelly Heck, Daniel Humphries-Russ, Shirley Lippy, Jennifer Littleton, Jeff Sharp and Steve Solomon.
All He Had to Say: The Paintings of Richard Neubauer, A Memorial Exhibit
Sunday, April 6 – Friday, May 16
Reception: Sunday, April 6, 2 – 4 p.m.
Self-taught artist, Richard Neubauer has said all he could say. Although his passing in September 2013 left his friends and family devastated, they and we are the inheritors of his passion and persistence.
A draftsman at AlliedSignal after serving in the Korean War, Neubauer worked into retirement painting the portraits of hundreds of retirees. His love of the classical art form and literature drove him to read much and study the manner and styles of Masterworks in the National Gallery, a favorite haunt for his research. Many of Neubauer's people and landscapes are inspired by the classics and have the warmth and ease of Dutch genre paintings.
Described by his family as "a stand-up father and down-to-earth guy," "Uncle Dick" was loved by many and both helpful and humble. Carroll is pleased to present this body of work in memory of a beloved regional artist whose art graces many walls in York County, PA. Watch a conversation with Neubauer.

I have been working at Broadridge full-time for more than 5 years
Pros – Diverse work force, bagels twice a week, opportunity to work 80 hours a week without being compensated!
Cons – Backstabbing, politics, penny pinching, increase %, bonuses, benefits, tuition reimbursements constantly being reduced. 80 hour work weeks are common and spinning the truth to make yourself look good runs rampart. Software is old and does not satisfy the needs of the users, technology leaders throw up roadblocks and do not support their business owners. The head of IT is only focused on passing his audits and has an entire staff dedicated to scouring forms to ensure check boxes are checked without regard to any other content. Senior leaders worry more about their audit scores than doing their real job. New products are announced to the street that don't exist .

"Kids love to compete and meet expectations," Stevens said. "Today so much of it is us taking the competition, the scoreboard, out of things and I feel like when we do a shooting contest or we do a dribbling contest and we make it competitive, the kids seem to enjoy it a lot more. I don't agree with taking the scoreboard or the competition in general out of sports. I think it's a lot more fun of an environment with the competition. You have to do it fair and in a way that kids don't get discouraged, but competition rules sports for a reason."
A driving force behind the level of competition is the expectations a coach sets for his players, which Stevens said was another essential factor to getting the most from kids.
"One thing I learned was to set the expectations high. You get what you tolerate. Kids will do enough for what you expect. That's the biggest thing with kids," he said. "Whether players or students, if you expect more out of them they're going to deliver. You have to respect the kids and the different backgrounds that kids come from."
Stevens, who coaches the fourth grade Ballers basketball team at the Boys and Girls Club, also said that aside from the competition aspect it is crucial to make sure the kids are kids.
"It's not always about learning the skill or whatever else," Stevens said. "It's important to get the kids in situations where it may be an overnight trip or a van ride to a game, just a social environment. When I was growing up, I used to go to the park or the gym and I would just play basketball with my friends. It was social as well as us just playing. Now when kids start sports, they don't do a sport without their parent or coach there, too. Everything is a structured event and if everything is that way, sometimes that fun can be taken out of it. So you just have to find ways, whether goofing around in the van or in the hotel or taking them out to eat, to not make it so structured and give that environment of just rolling the ball out and letting them figure it out. I want them to take control like what we used to have to do.
"So much of that social portion is taken out of sports because there's always a coach present and the coach handles all of that stuff so the kids don't handle it between themselves. I like to put them in those situations where they have to handle it themselves. The main thing that I want do is make sure they have fun with a purpose. We try to make everything fun. Especially with kids starting sports so young and really getting involved so much almost six or seven days a week, I think they lose a lot of that fun. My goal is to have them learn so we have a purpose, but we are going to have fun while we are doing it to make sure that the kids have a positive experience."
It is this social interaction of sports that Stevens said offers so much to children.
"I just think that the benefits of team sports in particular are so great as far as not just physically but socially," Stevens said. "You may really get along with your coach or you may not. You may deal with players that come from different backgrounds and play different styles and just having to get along. There are so many correlations with team sports and life. I just feel that it is so important to give that experience of playing team sports."
Stevens, who has spent the past four years with the BGCTM, said that the Ballers program, along with all of the programs at the club, are a great outlet for local kids to gain this involvement with other children they normally would not interact with.
"The beautiful thing about our Ballers program is we don't exclude any kid for any reason. There's a lot of programs that if you don't have the money to play, you can't come in and play, but this program like all of our programs at the Boys and Girls Club, we take every kid," Stevens said. "We get a real diverse population down here and it's fun to see that it doesn't matter what background they come from, when they get on the basketball court there's that one common thing that links them all together. It's pretty amazing to see all the different backgrounds and see the kids make friends with each other."
Before becoming the Director of Operations at the BGCTM, Stevens coached for over a decade with the basketball programs at Bishop Manogue and Reed, his alma mater. It is this passion for providing a setting for kids to enjoy themselves in and thrive in that Stevens loves about his job, whether with the Miners and Raiders, or with the Ballers today.
"It is great," Stevens said. "We put in a lot of hard work and a lot of hours for the kids and get a lot rewards from it. I get to see a lot of young people now who played for me and where they're at in life. Some of them are coaching and some of them are being real successful in their work and everything else, so that's great. I can't say there's one thing I'd trade back or doing anything differently for. I love what I'm doing now. I love working with my own boys. I feel grateful to work in this environment. It is always fun to see the kids rise to the occasion and do great things. For me it's about looking at the growth of the kids.
"I always tell kids I was glad to be a part of it but they are the ones that put in all the hard work. They're the ones that made themselves successful. They're the ones that took advantage of the opportunities that they had and not all kids do that. It's neat to see the ones that do and the ones that reap the benefits from it."

It's a handwritten letter from a father to his 12-year-old son, but it's not any dad writing to his preteen about the secrets of the world. This one penned by Nobel Laureate Francis Crick and tell about his new discovery, "des-oxy-ribose-nucleic acid," commonly known today as D.N.A.
At Christie's auction house, the double-sided, seven page note sold to anonymous buyer for a whopping $5.3M at auction – more than twice its high estimate. With the buyer's premium, the total cost came to $6,059,750.
The so-called "secret of life" letter was written to Crick's son Michael in 1953, shortly after Crick and his research partner James Watson discovered the double-helix structure of DNA. At the time, Michael was in the infirmary at his boarding school, and may not have been easy reading for the ill 12 year old to understand. Nevertheless, Crick stressed the significance of the information inside.
"Read this carefully so that you understand it," Crick wrote.
The letter outlines how D.N.A. is replicated, the process through which the genetic material is passed into a new cell, and includes sketches of the twisting structure of D.N.A., a groundbreaking idea at the time. Crick and Watson were in competition with two other groups of scientists to see who could discover the molecule's shape first.
The 60-year-old letter was written three weeks after Crick and Watson's discovery and before their findings were released to the world in the scientific journal, Nature.
Tom Lecky, head of Books and Manuscripts at Christie's, who hosted the sale April 10th, explained the importance of the information contained in the letter.
"You're seeing him not only working out these ideas – and of course he was out of necessity trying to boil this down and make it into a coherent understandable form – but also illustrating it, which was one of the key elements of the published paper," Lecky said.
"The great history it contains certainly warrants ... one of the strongest prices a modern letter has ever brought," Lecky said. Also boosting the value is the letter's personal nature. How often is a scientific discovery signed, "Lots of love, daddy"?
The Nobel Prize medal won by Francis Crick, also featured in the Million Dollar Minute, was sold at Heritage Auctions the following day for $2.27 million.

Cavalier senior tight end Tom Santi is one of 31 players on the John Mackey Award Watch List. The Mackey Award is presented to the best tight end in the nation.
Santi has continued the tradition of solid tight ends at Virgnia. Last season, he caught 29 passes for 253 yards and a touchdown. For his career, he has 766 receiving yards, good enough for eighth all time as a Cavalier for receiving yards by a tight end. Santi joins Jonathan Stupar and John Phillips as one of the best tight end trios in the ACC.
Back in 2004, Virginia tight end Heath Miller won the Mackey Award. He was the Pittsburgh Steelers' first round draft pick the following spring.

WCQS gardening expert Alison Arnold is not easily deterred. She says the rainy days of summer won't get her down but she will tread lightly in the garden.
WCQS partners with ASAP -- the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project -- for tailgate market updates, heard Thursdays and Fridays during Morning Edition (5am - 9am).
What's fresh at markets this week? What isn't! These days, summer favorites like beans, bell peppers, cabbages, eggplants, potatoes, and tomatoes are joining an already seasonal abundance of greens, summer squash, berries, and peaches.
It appears unlikely that state or federal disaster aid will be sought for residents and businesses affected by recent flooding. That's the assessment of North Carolina Division of Emergency Management Western Branch Manager Mike Cook. Cook oversees emergency management for counties west of Interstate 77.

Rain is in the forecast through the weekend and the potential for more flooding remains high for Western North Carolina. David Hurand spoke with State Emergency Management Area Coordinator Jeff Cardwell and Buncombe County Emergency Services Director Jerry Vehaun.
In a move supporters claim will reduce the number of abortions in the state and opponents claim will further restrict access to women's health care clinics, the State Senate has passed new restrictions on clinics that provide abortion services. David Hurand spoke with the Medical Director for Planned Parenthood Health System, Dr. Donna Burkett about the bill which is now on its way to the State House.
It began in a single room at Mission Hospital more than forty years ago and this week it was announced that the Health Adventure in Asheville will close July 14th. In 1992 the Health Adventure became a part of Pack Place Education, Arts and Science Center. A couple of years ago it relocated to the Biltmore Square Mall.
David Hurand spoke with the Chair of the Health Adventure Board of Advisors, Dr. Mark Knollman
about the decision to close its' doors.

Comments about MLB_Soft as a Grape San Francisco Giants Women's French Terry Full Zip Hood by Soft as a Grape:
I was so excited to get this sweatshirt, then I tried it on. The sleeves were baggy and long but the sweatshirt itself was tight fitting and too short. I usually wear a medium but ordered a large for roominess. Well, the large was extremely short and it was also tight on my non-existent belly. Would not recommend.

The Localism Bill gained Royal Assent in November 2011. It is a major plank in the governments expressed ambition to push power downwards and outwards to the lowest possible level, including individuals, neighbourhoods, professionals and communities as well as local councils and other local institutions.
Different parts of the Act will come into effect at different times, and there may be further consultations on some of the details. But some of the key measures in the pipeline include the following.
Community Right to Challenge
A range of groups community groups, social enterprises, parish councils, voluntary organisations, and public sector employees who think they would make a better job of running a public service, will have the right to make a challenge to do so. The local authority will have to make a response, and if it accepts the challenge, there will be a procurement exercise.
Community Right to Bid
Some have dubbed this the Community Right to Try to Buy. Communities can seek to get valued local assets, such as village shops, pubs, markets, parks, etc, registered with the local authority so that if they are threatened with closure or come up for sale, they will be given time to develop a bid and raise the money. This doesnt mean they will get first refusal, nor will they have to pay less than the market rate.
Right to approve or veto council tax rises
At present, central government can put a cap on council tax rises but thinks this should change so that local people decide. Government will set a limit for council tax increases, but if local councils want to go higher than this, they will have to hold a referendum to get approval from the local electorate.
Neighbourhood planning
A new right for communities residents, parish councils and local businesses - to draw up a neighbourhood plan saying where they think new houses, businesses, shops, etc should be sited and what they should look like. Neighbourhood plans are not intended to be a mechanism to block development.
People will come together through a parish or town council, or in unparished areas through a neighbourhood forum, to develop their plan. Its the local planning authoritys job to keep an overview of all the different requests to do neighbourhood planning in their area. They will check that the suggested boundaries for different neighbourhoods make sense and fit together. The local planning authority will say no if, for example, two proposed neighbourhood areas overlap. They will also check that community groups who want to take the lead on neighbourhood planning meet the right standards. The planning authority will also say no if, for example, the organisation is too small or not representative enough of the local community.
If the neighbourhood planning group is given the OK, they will be able to give full or outline planning permission via a neighbourhood planning order where they want to see homes, businesses or other facilities developed. Providing the neighbourhood development plan is in line with the strategic vision for the wider area set by the local authority, and with other legal requirements, local people will be able to vote on it via a local referendum. If the plan is backed by the majority of the people who vote, then the local authority will bring it into force.
Community Right to Build
This Right goes hand in hand with neighbourhood planning, as the Act allows local people to deliver the development they want to see. Development proposals which win support through a local referendum and which meet minimum criteria, will be able to go ahead without requiring a separate planning application.
Reforms to the Community Infrastructure Levy
Local authorities are able to require developers to pay a levy when they build new businesses or shops. This money is then used to support new infrastructure. However, the Localism Bill will give councils more freedom in setting the rate that developers pay, and some of the money raised will go to the neighbourhoods where the development is to take place - those neighbourhoods will have a say on what the money gets spent on.
Reforms to social housing
Councils will have more freedom to set their own policies about who should qualify for social housing.
Social landlords will be able to grant tenancies for a fixed period of time, with the minimum length of tenancy being two years in exceptional circumstances, with five years or more expected to be the norm.
A national home swap scheme for social housing tenants.
Councils will be able to keep the rent raised from their social housing tenants for the upkeep of their social housing. Previously, this revenue had to go to central government, and councils got back a share.
Councils will be able to place people experiencing a homelessness crisis in the private rented sector where appropriate, keeping social housing for people in need on the waiting list.
A plain English guide to the Localism Bill is available on the Dept for Communities and Local Government website.

Australian Dance Rock trio Art Vs. Science headlines the free MidPoint Indie Summer concert on Fountain Square tonight at 7 p.m. Also on the bill is Electro duo You, You're Awesome and unique Indie Rock group SHADOWRAPTR.
AvS keyboardist/guitarist/vocalist Dan McNamee spoke with CityBeat this week about the band's "conversion mission"/U.S. tour and how they borrow elements from various Dance music styles to create their own distinctive sound. Read Brian Baker's interview with McNamee here.
Below, check out a live video from Art Vs. Science, a recent clip from Shadowraptr and You, You're Awesome's cover of Gary Numan's "Metal."
• It's a night of Doom, Sludge and Crust as rising underground Metal locals Beneath Oblivion headline a free hometown show tonight at Baba Budan's in Clifton Heights. BO has been continuing to tour behind its latest From Man to Dust album, which was released by former local label The Mylene Sheath and has been receiving glowing reviews from outlets like Decibel Magazine and MetalSucks.com. The band will be hitting the road again in August.
Performing with Beneath Oblivion at its 8 p.m show will be Grass (Sludge band from Philadelphia), Before the Eyewall (Sludge from Columbus) and Cincy Crust Punk crew Coelacanth.
• The new group DAAP Girls makes its live debut tonight, opening for solid Detroit rockers The Sights at MOTR Pub in Over-the-Rhine.The Girls consists of members of local Rock band The Lions Rampant and NoKy Ska/Reggae crew The Newport Secret Six. Lions/DAAP Girls member Stuart MacKenzie describes the band as a "dance-oriented mix of early Stones' guitars, Funk breakbeats, three-part harmonies and Reggae bass." Tonight's free show kicks off at 10 p.m.
Headliners The Sights begin touring with Tenacious D tomorrow (playing Nashville's Ryman Auditorium) and are promoting their latest release, Left Over Right. Here's the Garage Pop band playing the title track at a show in Ypsilanti last month.
• Fans of Americana/Roots/Folk music can catch some of the area's finest tonight at Paddlefest out at Coney Island, as WNKU presents the Roots on the River Music Festival. The fest (and parking) are free. Artists scheduled to appear (5-11:30 p.m.) include Jake Speed & The Freddies, Tex Schramm & the Radio King Cowboys, The Lewis Brothers, Magnolia Mountain and Brown County, Ind., Country Blues faves Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band. Full details on Paddlefest can be found here; click here for the music schedule.
• The Jam band kings of Phish return to Cincinnati tonight for a 7 p.m. concert at Riverbend. Tickets are $41.50-$56.50.
Perhaps because Cincinnati is becoming such a cool city to hang out in lately, like the members of the Red Hot Chili Peppers (who hung out at the Radiohead concert and took batting practice with the Reds the night before their show in Cincy recently), the Phish phellas spent an off day in the Queen City yesterday. Singer/guitarist Trey Anastasio and bassist Mike Gordon spent at least part of the day shopping for and/or playing with gear at Mike's Music in Corryville. Check out the pics below of Trey and Mike noodling about in the store (from the Mike's Music Facebook page here).

On this day 18 years ago, Kurt Cobain decided he was done with life and ended it with a single shotgun blast to the head. While it's fun to play the "What if?" game with brilliant artists who died too soon — like, "Would John Lennon have followed Yoko's lead to become a Dance music superstar?" or "Would James Dean be doing stereotypical 'cool old guy' roles today if he was still around?" — it is, of course, a pointless exercise.
But crystal-ball wonderings of a person who actually knew the artist? That's at least a little more interesting. Spin has a piece this morning about the vague musings of Cobain's widow, musician/actress Courtney Love, in an interview a year ago with Mark Yarm, author of Everybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge. Love told Yarm, "We'd probably live on the Upper West fuckin' Side now and have three fuckin' kids. We might even have a divorce, like both be on our third marriage. I don't fuckin' know. He might be a playwright, (or have) his latest show in MoMA." (Read more here and check out the links featuring other Cobain remembrances.)
I like to think the couple would have starred in a really bad Everybody Loves Raymond-type sitcom on CBS. But mostly I wish Cobain would have stuck it out. As they say a lot nowadays, "It gets better."
I was lucky enough to see Nirvana a couple of times before Kurt made that impossible — once at Shorty's, the tiny subterranean club on Short Vine in Corryville, with about 50 people in attendance and once at Dayton's Hara Arena (see: poster above) with … quite a bit more people in attendance. Both shows were memorable. I think I got kicked out of Shorty's because some guy wanted to stab me that night (long story). (Nirvana played a few times in our area in those get-in-the-van-and-go, pre-stardom days, including a show at Clifton Heights bar Murphy's Pub. They were scheduled to play with the great AmRep band The Cows at the Top Hat in Newport but their van allegedly broke down on their way. I remember it well 'cause this local band opened up.)
In Dayton (memorable in hindsight because Cobain would be dead within a year), Kurt thought former drummer Chad Channing (who lived in Ohio then) was in the audience. The band called for Channing to come up and play "School" with them, but he never showed. Turns out, he wasn't there.
The band did play "School" later in the set and dedicated it to Channing. Check out the audio below.

I may be imagining it (the eternal optimist that I am), but it seems like ever since the Southgate House locked its doors at the end of 2011, many in the local booking world stepped up their game instantly. Though it's only been just over a month, it certainly doesn't feel as if the Greater Cincinnati concert market has been gutted by the loss of that one great club. And with several spots slated to open later this year (new venues from the brains behind the Southgate and Mad Hatter, plus whatever happens to the actual Southgate House building), it only looks to be getting better.
More good news on that front came out at the start of this week. On Feb. 10, an unexpected, big-time venue entered the mix — or rather, increased its presence in it. Downtown's gorgeous Taft Theatre already this year announced some concerts by more "mid-level" groups like Trampled By Turtles and JJ Grey & Mofro, cult faves and Southgate alumni. Now, the Taft and promoter Music & Events Management Inc. are opening a new venue-within-a-venue that will allow the Taft to book artists who have outgrown small clubs but aren't quite ready for the big room.
The Ballroom at the Taft — located in the theater's lower level — was designed to be, according to the press release, "a showcase style club venue that will play host to a variety of live entertainment events spanning all types of styles and genres."
The first time I heard Yo-Yo Ma was on the episode of West Wing when his White House performance triggered Josh Lyman's PTSD. Obviously, this was a horrible first impression. It tainted my opinion of the cellist for nearly a decade. Recently, though, I've become rather fond of Mr. Ma. That fondness only multiplied when his new album, The Goat Rodeo Sessions, found its way into my hands. A "goat rodeo" is a situation where a thousand things must come together and go perfectly in order for it to work. The album, a collection of Americana/Bluegrass works, must have felt like exactly that when Ma sat down and began collaborating with bassist Edgar Meyer, mandolin virtuoso Chris Thile (Punch Brothers, Nickle Creek), and fiddler Stuart Duncan. The album contains only one song with vocals, sung by vocalist Aoife O'Donovan (who sounds a lot like Alison Krauss).
The Goat Rodeo Sessions is available for purchase now, but on Jan. 31, music fans across the country will have the chance to see it performed live.
Tonight in Northside, Mayday presents its monthly new local band showcase, "Unsung." This month's newcomers aren't entirely "new," but they are new to Cincinnati. The Brothers Devine, a quirky and eclectic AltRock two-piece (guitar/drums) featuring bros Andris and Erik Devine, recently moved to town from Milwaukee. The duo takes avowed influences like Green Day, System of a Down, Bad Religion, and the Goo Goo Dolls and concocts a wild-eyed blend of Punk, Indie Pop, Metal, Folk and whatever the hell else they feel like exploring at the time.
Tonight's Unsung show is free and kicks off at 9 p.m. Here's a playlist of the Devine's music to get your ready. Click here for more on the group.
• Fuzzy, Pumpkins-esque AltRock crew Silversun Pickups pulls into Corryville tonight for a show at Bogart's. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. Tickets for the all-ages show are $30 at the door.
Click here to read a show preview from this week's CityBeat, then check out the band performing on WNYC's Soundcheck. Audio of the full appearance follows.

• Originating in Michigan and now based in the Pacific Northwest, Punk Rock trio The Spits pattern "their own new-millennial take on Punk after heroes like NOFX and The Ramones, but also tapping into the '70s Synth Wave dissonance that distinguished bands like Wire and Spizzenergi and presenting a theatrical component as engaging as Devo in their prime," according to CityBeat's Brian Baker. Read Brian's preview here then head to Mayday in Northside tonight for the 9 p.m. show. Admission is $10 and Useless Eaters and Subsets open.
Here's the band rocking San Francisco this spring.
• The annual Bosom Ball presented by local Pop radio station Q102 returns to Covington's Madison Theater tonight. The event, a benefit for the American Cancer Society and the Susan G. Komen Foundation, this year features ZZ Ward, Labrinth, American Authors, Serena Ryder and Walk Off the Earth. Doors open at 6 p.m. (there is also an all-ages "Sound Check Party" with American Authors that runs 4-5 p.m.; the Bosom Ball is open to ages 21 and up only). Admission is $30. Click here for more info and check out a few of the performers below.
• The Jubilee Peace Fest celebrates its fifth anniversary this year, returning to the Grailville Retreat and Organic Farm in Loveland, Ohio, starting today and going through Sunday. The fest — which runs 6 a.m.-10 p.m. each day — features "yoga workshops, meditation practices, cooking classes, health and fitness seminars, spiritual activism … kirtan and more, with national (and) internationally known teachers, musicians, authors, artists and chefs unfolding the path to world peace," according to the official event page on Facebook. The festival is organized in conjunction with the non-profit World Peace Earth, whose mission is "educating, encouraging, researching and promoting a loving lifestyle to create a virtuous, kind, gentle, respectful and spiritual relationship between all beings and the earth, contributing to world peace."
You'd be forgiven for thinking the musical lineup is all soft New Age music but, while that is represented, the Peace Fest boasts a surprisingly eclectic collection of performers, playing everything from Hip Hop and Rock to Experimental and World music. Sticman of one of best contemporary Hip Hop groups around, Dead Prez, is one of the big names performing, joining acts like Canadian "Neo-Folk World Rock 'Country & Eastern' Fusion" troupe HuDost, Rock band ThePeace, popular Hip Hop collaborator (and organic gardening proponent) DJ Cavem and Cincinnati native Amy Ferguson.

• The international Red Bull Thre3Style DJ competition returns to the area this week with a slight twist. Tonight at downtown nightclub Play, five DJs from area colleges will compete as part of the Thre3Style U competition, which is open to only full-time college student DJs. The competing turntablists are University of Cincinnati's DJ HD and DJ EFEX, Northern Kentucky University's DJ Underground, University of Dayton's DJ Web and Miami University's DJ Gabe C. Former Red Bull Thre3Style victor Apryl Reign and Kiss 107 FM's DJ Sab are among the judges. The event is free and kicks off at 10 p.m. (Note: Play has some pretty strict dress restrictions.)
• Bogart's in Corryville presents a night of Electronic Dance music, headed up by Boulder, Colorado's Big Gigantic, the duo of Dominic Lalli and Jeremy Salken, who've built a huge following with their unique "Livetronica" stylings. New Zealand native (now based in Australia) and funky DJ up-and-comer Opiuo opens the show at 9 p.m.
Cincinnati born and bred legend Bootsy Collins is known for his collaborations, from James Brown, George Clinton and Deee-Lite to more recent (and more unusual) hookups, like William Shatner, Charlie Daniels and Dr. Cornel West. But his latest collabo might be his strangest — and most fun — yet. Last night, Collins joined The Roots, DEVO's Mark Mothersbaugh, Biz Markie and Erykah Badu on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon for a little jam session with the cast of the trippy, hip kids' show, Yo Gabba Gabba.
Deft local MC Buggs Tha Rocka, who balances his excellent solo work with performances and recordings with the group Gold Shoes, has become the first Hip Hop artist to participate in the ongoing "Emery Sessions," a series of excellent music videos, filmed in one-shot by world-class photographer Michael Wilson at the restored classic Cincinnati venue, The Emery Theatre. Audio was handled once again by local musicians Cameron Cochran and Henry Wilson.
The series not only celebrates local music but also showcases the grand old theatre, a century-old Cincinnati treasure that fell into disrepair but has recently returned to "active venue" status thanks to the work of The Requiem Project.
Buggs and DJ Ghost performed "Stephanie's Song" for their Session. Unlike previous clips (which have spotlighted a host of local artists, from Over the Rhine to Jeremy Pinnell and the 55s, as well as Bluegrass legend Ralph Stanley and many others), Buggs and DJ Ghost don't perform on the theatre's stage, but in another nook and cranny elsewhere in the building.
"Stephanie's Song" is from Buggs Tha Rocka's fantastic The Wrath of Zeus mixtape, which is available for free download here.
Take a look at some of the other Emery Sessions here.
Locally born and bred musical icon Bootsy Collins celebrates his 60th birthday today! The living legend has a firm handle on his position near the top of any list of the most famous and important Cincinnatians, helping to design the blueprint for Funk music during his time as a crucial member of James Brown's band and, of course, his years holding down the low-end for Funk superheroes Parliament/Funkadelic. Those foundational years fiddling with the Funk recipe also made him one of the most crucial musicians in Hip Hop history — between his work with Brown and George Clinton (not to mention his solo work), there may not be another bassist on the planet whose riffs have been sampled more throughout Hip Hop's nearly 40-year history. In honor of Bootsy's 60th, enjoy a sampling of some of his many career highlights below, including the excellent Unsung documentary about the bass master.
