In conversation with Stuart Forrest
Finweek recently sat down with Triggerfish CEO Stuart Forrest. Read the full conversation here:
He's the governing force behind the highest-grossing SA-owned film since the Eighties, and his production company just secured the development funding for two films as part of a five film slate, which we reckon makes him one of the most successful producers in the country, if not the entire continent. We spoke to Triggerfish CEO Stuart Forrest about the South African film industry, pitching to venture capital firms (VCs) and the one piece of advice he'll give to anyone who will listen.

where did the scrubbing dial go? is it gone? or hidden? i miss it =( i also don't like the fact the zoom in feature has changed. but not as annoying as the scrubbing. so is scrubbing axed? (i realize you can do it with the playhead, but i liked the dial better.)
The shuttle wheel has been removed from the Source and Program Monitors in Premiere Pro CS6. You can use JKL keyboard shortcuts to achieve the same thing. Press JK or KL to shuttle slowly.
You can find a shuttle wheel in the Trim Monitor, if you really need it.
...or buy a Contour Shuttle Pro. you'll wonder how you ever worked without it!
Jon-M-Spear wrote:
...or buy a Contour Shuttle Pro. you'll wonder how you ever worked without it!
wow.... never even seen one of those before. 80 bucks on amazon, not bad... i may invest. i used the shuttle feature quite extensively.
Agreed. I can't believe in all the "customize your workspace" nonsense they touted, that they don't let me add the shuttle to the window.
Yeah I cant believe they removed it completely. All of the UI enhancements they are options to go back to the original 5.5 and prior settings yet they dont give an option to add the shuttle/jog buttons. I hope they change that for the next update. I really liked using the shuttle wheel and jog slider. To hjide the button to clean up the interface is one thing, but not to leave the option for it is ridiculous.
Not everyone uses just JKL. I use it regularly however I also like the "OPTION" keyword here "OPTION" of using the mouse and the jog/shuttle controls.
This is horrible...Adobe want me to now start playing multi-key games with eyes off the monitor where before I could use the mouse to move in the video smoothly.
The trim window is useless for this for this. It doesnt' support editing and it is modal, you can't access anything else in the application while it is up.
I move back and forth over a few frames looking for editing points. I don't find the control wheels and advantage and I don't have the space for it. My 2600k 16GB 20TB computer does more than video editing.
The new layout wastes space and doesn't significantly add significantly to real estate.
I want the job and shuttle brought back IMMEDIATELY. This change dramatically screws up my editing. What could Adobe have been thinking!!!
Haven't used CS6 yet, but I use the the shuttle bar and jog wheel all the time. I can't believe that of all the useful feature requests people were clamoring for, deleting the navigation tools were high on the list.
No thanks, please fix it.
Just in case you guys dont know of it...this may help.
Hover your cursor over the Source or Program Monitors and use the mouse scroll wheel to make fine adjustments frame by frame.
A fraction of the functionality. It gives maybe a 1/2 second of movement. The Jog wheel gave 5+ seconds plus variable speed, slower up and down then left and right. The shuttle moved seamlessly between slow and fast speeds, forward and back. Hitting the J-K-L or Shift J and Shift-K isn't even a close substitute.
This seems like a classic case where the product planners used "experts" to determine features rather than "users". It is made worse by the new upgrade policy which forces you onto a Creative Cloud subscription or to forced annual updates (since only the most recent version can be upgraded in the future).
Sorry I thought you said
" I move back and forth over a few frames looking for edit points"
so I supplied the solution that I use for fine tuning edit points.
Understandable...I didn't know you could sue the wheel...and a few to me was closer to 30 or 40. The jog gave lots of flexibility with a simple mouse movement. The shuttle did also.
When Audition lost the frequency zoom on the spectral frequency display it was because of a new codebase to work on the Mac. CS6 Audition brings the zoom back with enhancements.
This is a lose of functionaity with no advantage. They even took away timeline data that was displayed before.
Have you tried scrolling the mouse wheel in program/source while using the "SHIFT" key modifier? Have no idea if that would work (just now downloading CS6) but I know that the SHIFT key modifier usually does act as a 5x multiplier for frame advancing in the timeline for most of the relevant Adobe apps. Try holding SHIFT while hovering your mouse over the program/source monitor and scrolling with the mouse wheel, let me know if that does anything for you.
Just hover over the Monitors and scroll with the mouse wheel frame for frame. Just like Graig said.
With Shift it will scroll 5 frames at a time.
this doesn't help me in the mulitcam window, where I do a lot of precise cuts, because it doesn't work there.
Ann Bens wrote:
No shift, just hover over the Monitors and scroll with the mouse wheel frame for frame. Just like Graig said.
I just checked it on my laptop and SHIFT+scroll does indeed increase the scrub rate 5x as I suspected.
Sure it works in a multicam sequence.
But these workarounds are weak substitutes for the real thing. The net is the program and source window navigation was screwed up by removing a bug free feature that is widely used. For many, including myself, it dramatically and adversely affects my editing speed which is a key factor.
Adobe, bring back this feature IMMEDIATELY!!!
It works in a multicam sequence in the program monitor, but it does not work in the multi-camera window where you select your cameras. And even if it did, like David said, it's not a good substitute for somethign that had no business being taken out. I don't want to scroll up and down with my mouse wheel. I tried it a little, and that is an awful way to edit.
I've submitted a feature request, so we'll see, but Adobe needs to act on this.
> Adobe, bring back this feature IMMEDIATELY!!!
You can submit feature requests here: http://www.adobe.com/go/wish
We didn't think that many people used it, and we didn't get much indication in our large beta-testing group to the contrary.
Your beta group was obviously biased. If you had instrumented a random population of CS5 and CS5.5 you could have had statistics on which controls are used. I never heard of the Beta. I only saw the Photoshop "beta" when I was searching for CS6 information when Lightroom 4 came out. That wasn't really a beta at that time;;;;late March 2012.
It isn't a "feature" request. It is a DEFECT. An important feature that was removed. It should have to wait for CS7. It should be returned (maybe as an option) in the first bug fix release.
FWIW...I did use shuttle/jog now and then, but having scroll options works fine for my needs.
AGREED! Exactly what David said. I love PP, certainly enhance the editing workflow,etc., but dont permanently remove transport controls and other "staples" that have been in the interface since the beginning. I know the idea is to be a more streamlined editing UI like AMC, but please leave the option to bring buttons back as a preference.
While we are at it, the time panel under the play head was also removed it much harder to know where you are it the clip.. If that was a good idea, why was it left on the sequence? It serves the same function in the program and source windows, identifying in and out points and a perspective on overall position.
Someone dropped the ball IMHO.
David, right click on where the ruler is and click "time ruler numbers" is that what you are talking about?
Wes, Thanks! That was it. Why was it turned off? All that was there was blank space.
Part of the simplify the interface thing they've done with CS6. Which is fine, if they allow you to change it back
yeah, this is crap.
i relied havily on the fast forward function (jog?). shuttle can get bent. never used that feature. i would just put the job slider to about 3x speed an listen to the chipmunk voices for dead air, while watching tv to know when to make cuts. maybe the way i do it is "wrong" but thats how i do it. i want SOME form of automated fast forward. lol. 2x-3x would be nice. the JKL is way too slow. and the arrow keys are way too slow too. i would assume JOG would be a very important feature. or some kind of fast forwrd or rewind.... *shrugs
consider my "feature request" filed.
Have you actually *tried* the JKL..? It doesn't sound like you have. 2x/4x/8x is built in - hit L once, regular playback speed; hit it again, 2x; and so on. Also, if you need to temporarily slow down, try this: hit & hold the L key until you hit a region of interest, then (again, while the L key is down) hold down the K key at the same time. Playback speed gears down into frame stepping. Let go of K again: regular playback speed resumes. You can also use the K paused state in tandem with the J/L keys to 'rock' around points of interest. It's incredibly powerful, and gives you much more accuracy than you'd ever achieve mousing with the jog.
I should also point out a different way of stepping: holding arrow left/right steps a frame at a time, but shift-arrow left/right steps 5 frames at a time. So that's another way to scan footage at a different pace than regular playback.
I'm sorry for the people that liked using the jog control, but I doubt it's going to make a comeback. These were very researched, deliberate design changes that have been put in (believe me, a lot of energy was spent polling various users in quite a few different editing demographics). Someone's always bound to not like it when things go away, but we really feel that this decluttering is a boon, not a hindrance, and that all the functionality is still very much there. Adding proper JKL support (including in trim mode!) was a hugely popular feature request, as was cleaning up the usable video space - give it a chance! You never know, you might just change your minds...
Yes I have...and it is nowhere near as fluid. IF you have 10 or 15 keystrokes, many requiring multiple keys, you can duplicate the mouse. In a few cases faster.
HOWEVER, the keystrokes require you to have your fingers on the right keys. This is fine for touch typing where your fingers are on the keyboard. But you don't touch type JLK and especially Shift+J, shift+K. Manuveruring between windows. Moving audio to Audition for editing.
Net, the jog and shuttle are VERY useful and a major convienence and time saver. Maybe some of you FCP folks really love JLK; I don't. I've tried it. and use the mouse.
But Premiere Pro should allow both of us to work the way we want to. It is find they added new features...they just had no reason to remove the old features.And removing the old features hurts alot of us.
You didn't save any noticible real estate. If you look at my picture above, the difference is trivial. The jog and shuttle could have been left with the button options. They could have even been implemented as a version of the hover scrub, which doesn't work on the program or source windows. Button down left/right mouse does a jog. Different button makes it shuttle.
But instead...nothing.

THATS how it works. i thought Kevin, in post #2, meant you hold K+L together to go forward, and k+j to go back. it was going in slow-mo, so i was like "this is more worthless than anything!" i am actually "L"ing through a video right now while i type this! its actually WAY more versatile than the previous method! which was my biggest wish feature from previous, was to be able to review audio in the background with PrPro while in other apps
i'm sorry for the strong words, to be honest i know very little about keyboard shortcuts, so i know i am killing probably 65% of my productivity by not utilizing them. i guess i should learn more cause this JKL stuff is revolutionary!
I'm sory, but this reeks of the same problems Apple users faced with FCPX. "We think this is better, so we changed it, and you will/should like it" You guys are in a great position to take a lot of business from Apple with this release, but don't piss off your current customers by shoving your views down our noses. Because the simple fact of the matter is, this is simple fix. You have already included a way to put back in buttons and customize the workspace, but for some reason neglected this tool that a lot of your users use. Yes, I have tried JKL. I don't like it. I don't want to like it. I want a simple button/tool that has been in the program to be in there again. I want the way you cut clips in mulitcam viewer to go back to the way it was. I honestly cannot think of why anyone would want to pick a camera angle while scrubbing and have the whole clip change and not have a cut be made. But if that worked for your testers, so be it. Give me the option to reverse the behavior. Let Ctrl click change the whole clip, and let a click make a cut.
Really surprised by this comment from an Adobe employee. Taking all the exitement out of the release by telling me to just like it the way it is. Hopefully as people get this, enough people will complain here and elsewhere and really put the subscription service to the test by getting us a quick update.
This is far too many tricky keystroke combinations requiring rather precise finger registration (the keys are next to each other). Is your ring finger as dexterous as your index finger?
You can use left/right arrow to rock around a point with much better control than the JLK combo, no registrtation issues, and they stop when you lift your finger.
No, Apple deliberately did not listen to users when designing FCPX, as all the beta testers will tell you. They had essentially one guy designing it and they just wanted the betas to say"yes it's great!" Which none of them did.
Adobe worked with users at many levels (I do have personal knowledge of this) and what you see in CS6 is the best combo of features based on the input received. And some of the Adobe testers were very old school jog/shuttle types that are learning to leverage the keyboard more because they realized how much better it is.
I still agree it would have been better to leave those controls in there as toggle option. But it is NOT a deal breaker for most users. A lot of people - like myself - like the new cleaner interface. However, people complain twice as much as they praise so the feedback on this subject will be almost exclusively by dissenters. That's important to remember.
I'm sorry if you feel slighted but you should blame the beta testers for their suggestions and the people who filed feature requests, not Adobe, since they did what their users asked. It's not an FCP thing (FCP had jog/shuttle controls, you know).
my comment wasn't directed at the beta testing process, it was directed at the Adobe employee who just now said we hadn't tried the new way, that we would like it if we did. That shuttle/jog would probably not make a comeback. Pretty much dismissing all concerns about where these controls have gone and the people who would like the option to have them in there.

I understand...and even though I'm not an Adobe employee, I do want you to understand that I "feel your pain" about losing a feature that you used, even if you were the absolute ONLY person that used it, I know losing a part of your workflow is a major bummer.
But I wanted to reaffirm that in this case, it really is the users and the beta testers that determine this stuff. With Premiere Pro, probably more than any of the other Adobe apps, Adobe employees were travelling all over the country (and the world...?) working one-on-one with video editors of all stripes to build an editing solution that was what they wanted. Obviously they could not make 100% of the users happy, or implement 100% of the suggestions, nor guarantee that it would work EXACTLY like it did before, but I think they did an outstanding job of listening to users, observing their needs and giving them what they really needed and asked for.
I don't think the Adobe reps are DISMISSING your needs, they are only showing you that perhaps there is a way to do this that is better for most users, and perhaps you MIGHT like it better if you tried it for a bit. Naturally, it would be wrong for them to say "your way of working sucks, you're doing it wrong, our way is so much better and faster you'd be stupid to ask for what you're asking for" (in that case, they really would start sounding like Apple). I think they handled your concern pretty well, even though admittedly they could not even give you any hope of getting your jog/shuttle back. The fact that they could even tell you that at all proves that they are willing to be open with you about the product development. I think if you try the new workflow - and others try it as well - and still insist that it is a worse way of working, then when you voice your opinion once again it will possibly mean something more. For now, it's not a "our way or the highway" approach from Adobe, but it is a situation that you and others like you will have to deal with, so for now I'd suggest implementing the new keyboard workflow and see how it goes for a while.
For me, I absolutely hate having to touch the mouse while in PPro if I can help it. I've customized everything to keyboard shortcuts as much as I can, and even though I occasionally DID use the jog/shuttle, it was more out of my old habits than anything else. I much more frequently employ the JKL combos with the SHIFT modifier (and I didn't know about the J/L+K combo before now, so that is awesome!). That is my opinion, and again, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the new decluttered interface. I removed all but one or two buttons from the source and program monitors and they are never coming back.
Christian, prima facie from this thread they may have "worked with users at many levels" but they either didn't do it effectively or missued the result.
Using the jog and shuttle would be common for anyone who preferred the mouse of the keyboard. In affect, they let you use the mouse with no key'/finger registration to manuver with one hand over tasks that would otherwise require high coordination over three fingers that where in a less comfortable position (arms bent, hand arched for the keyboard, arm extended hand relaxed for the mouse).
Removing these controls is a major defect IMHO.
Even though I feel that Pr is missing a lot of useful functions, I still get a lot more work done in less time than I did on MC or FCP.
Creative people learn to work around the limitations in their software.
I never used that jog wheel. Ever. Didn't affect the quality of my work one iota. But, like yours, mine is just one man's opinion.
BTW, I put an extensive list of feature requests in a few days ago. I got an email back from an Adobe employee within ten minutes (telling me one of my requests - a scrub toggle shortcut - was already in CS6). YMMV, but I was impressed.

> I got an email back from an Adobe employee within ten minutes (telling me one of my requests - a scrub toggle shortcut - was already in CS6). YMMV, but I was impressed.
Speaking as one of the people who does the job of reading the feature requests and bug reports for After Effects (it's a rotating job), I can say that we absolutely read, log, tally, and consider every submission. We don't answer every submission, but we often do answer if we need more information. I know that I answer if (as in this case) the requested feature already exists.
Don't count on responses being immediate, either. My usual workflow, when it's my turn, is to process the submissions once a week or so---though that differs from person to person, application to applicaiton, and even depending on what part of the release cycle we're in.
I'm not in the rotation for the Premiere Pro submissions, but I work very closely with the people who are, and I know that they take this part of the job very seriously.

Wielding massive defensive stats, a typing that gives it a bunch of nifty resistances, and the ability to set up Stealth Rock and phaze with Roar, Bastiodon has a solid niche on defensive teams. However, its rare and defensive Steel typing is sadly hindered by its additional Rock typing, giving it many exploitable weaknesses, including two 4x ones to very common offensive types in the tier, Fighting and Ground. In addition, Bastiodon has no offensive presence or reliable recovery moves, so it can easily end up being dead weight to the team. While these traits hinder Bastiodon greatly, some stall teams still find this Pokemon's plethora of resistances and support moves to be just what they need to patch the holes in their defenses.
Bastiodon will start off most games by switching in on a defensive Pokemon or a Pokemon with ineffective attacks to set up Stealth Rock to support the team. Magic Coat will bounce back Taunt or harmful statuses, ensuring Bastiodon's longevity; it can also reflect any incoming Spikes or Toxic Spikes, saving the team time for setting up while the opponent has to lay down entry hazards. One of Bastiodon's redeeming qualities is its treasured ability to safely counter the antics of Pokemon with the Prankster ability, such as Swagger and Foul Play Liepard and Copycat and Roar Riolu, as Magic Coat has a higher priority than what Prankster gives their moves. Once enough entry hazards are on the opponent's side of the field, Bastiodon can begin phazing with Roar, racking up as much damage as possible. Toxic is in the last slot as it is the only significant source of damage Bastiodon can offer, and it can neuter some important Pokemon such as Alomomola and Audino who have the Regenerator ability, which minimizes entry hazard damage. It also badly poisons Flying-type and levitating Pokemon, who avoid Toxic Spikes.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
While it's blessed with an extensive movepool, Bastiodon fails to use almost any of it effectively. Rock Blast could fit into a slot, but it could only really hit Ninjask and break Haunter's Substitutes, and Bastiodon can safely Roar them out anyway. Its special movepool is marvelous, as it contains Thunderbolt, Flamethrower, Ice Beam, and Flash Cannon, but none of these attacks will do close to satisfactory damage unless super effective. A Curse set is plausible with Rock Blast and Avalanche, but it would need many boosts to do significant damage. Bastiodon can also learn Taunt, but it is too slow for it to be effective.
Checks and Counters
Because of its typing, Bastiodon can be defeated by almost any Ground- or Fighting-type attack, so it is threatened out by the likes of Sawk, Primeape, Golurk, Pinsir, and Golem, all of which are common. Marowak deserves a special mention, as it can bypass Sturdy and OHKO with Bonemerang; any Pokemon with Mold Breaker, such as Sawk, Rampardos, and Fraxure, can also bypass Sturdy and KO Bastiodon. Water-type Pokemon such as Samurott and Ludicolo can also hit Bastiodon super effectively, but Bastiodon can usually survive one hit and phaze them out. In addition, any residual damage, such as entry hazards and burns, will wear down Bastiodon quickly because it can't heal itself reliably.

that picture is hilarious, pretty much sums up the Knicks
Raymond Felton claims gun arrest 'not a distraction' as Knicks prepare for Heat
Knicks point guard Raymond Felton is hoping to move on following his arrest on multiple felony weapons charges this week.
Addressing reporters one day after he released on $25,000 bail, Felton expressed gratitude to those close to him while stating that his attention remains on the basketball court.
"Thank you to my teammates, thank you to the fans, to my family, to my friends, everybody for their support in this situation," he said, in comments recorded by the MSG Network. "This is not a distraction to this team. I'm focusing on finishing out this season, finishing out these games with my teammates and going down to Miami, focusing on this next game on tap versus the defending champs."
Felton's arrest occurred just hours after New York lost to Dallas 110-108 at Madison Square Garden on Monday night. Felton tallied eight points (on 3-for-4 shooting) and seven assists in 34 minutes.
The Knicks (21-36) did not play on Tuesday or Wednesday and are set to face the Heat (40-14) in Miami on Thursday. Felton, who started 41 games for New York this season, is expected to be available.
Prosecutors are charging Felton with with two felony weapons possession charges after his estranged wife turned over to police an unregistered, Belgian-made semi-automatic pistol that was loaded with 18 rounds of ammunition. The weapon allegedly belongs to Felton.
"As far as speaking on what's going on off the court with me, there will be no comment speaking on that," Felton said. "If you have any questions dealing with on that, speak with my lawyer."
The NBA and the Knicks have not yet assessed any punishment to Felton, which is not uncommon during unresolved legal situations.
"The bottom line is Ray is a part of our team," Knicks coach Mike Woodson said Wednesday, according to CBS New York. "And as his coach I'm going to support him and make sure he's doing everything the right way from here on out, and to try to get him to just concentrate on basketball and practice and playing games."
New York currently has the East's 11th-best record and needs a strong push over the next six weeks to claim a playoff spot.
"I'm here to concentrate on this team, finish this season out with the New York Knicks and see what happens," he said. "We're trying to make it to the playoffs — we're 5.5 games out with 25 games left. I'm really focusing on that with these guys on the team and trying to make that happen."
Felton, 29, is averaging a career-low 10.4 points, 6 assists and 3 rebounds in 32.8 minutes per game in what has been a rocky season. The nine-year vet is shooting 40.3 percent from the field, 29.6 percent on three-pointers and holds a 12.7 Player Efficiency Rating, which is a career-low mark. Felton, who is on the books for $3.6 million this season, was involved in numerous trade rumors prior to last week's trade deadline but New York ultimately did not move him. He will next appear in court on June 2.
News circulated last week that Felton and his wife of less than two years were in the process of getting a divorce.
"It's your life," Felton said at the time, according to the New York Daily News. "When you're going through certain things in life it's on your mind, no matter what. You try not to let it come into your job, into your workplace, but sometimes it does. You're human and it's a part of life. But at the same time, it is what it is. That's my personal life, though; I don't want to discuss that part."
The Knicks released guard Beno Udrih and forward Metta World Peace on Monday.
Of course it's not a distraction for a moron like you who doesn't give a crap about anything but yourself.
Waste of space in this world you are Felton!
Look at this guy. That is the face of a moronic retard.
To us, these circumstances would would be a distraction. To this arse, it's every day life.
Putting a gun in the face of a fiancee is not being human and a part of everyday life. Lock this bum up for 2 to 3 years.

Richmond >Food & Dining > Red Door Store
314 E Grace St, Richmond, VA | Directions 2321937.543005 -77.439322
Mon. - Fri. 10am - 8pm;Sat. - Sun. CLOSED
Neighborhoods: City Center
Red Door is family – The Red Door is very personable and GREAT FOOD! I love their rolls and chocolate chip cookies. I always recommend this restaurant and know of lots of people who also love it. Go eat there, you will not be upset!!!
Like eating at home – This is one of my favorite restaurants to eat at. I have been going there for 7 years sometimes up to 3-4 times a week and have never had a bad meal yet. The owners are friendly and care about their customers and know most of them by name. They treat you great and always make sure that you are satisfied. I too, enjoy their variety of meals and desserts and also the atmosphere. A great place to go and eat and if you haven't given it a try, do so. You will not regret it, I promise!!!!
This is a fantastic local restaurant. Whether you work downtown or just live around the corner, there is a great mix of people there and everyone is made to feel at home. We make this a regular stop at least once per week or more. The specials are great. Get the home-made house dressing for your salad, one of the best I've had. The menu has a great variety of American, Greek, and Italian. Get a sandwich on one of their home-made rolls with a side of chips or fries, or order the fish special with 2 veggie side dishes. I'm picky about my tea, and I've never had to send back the un-sweet tea here.. it's always fresh and re-fills are frequent and free.
If for some reason you actually have room for dessert, try a home-made piece of cake or just buy one of the huge home-made cookies when you check out.
This is a family owned restaurant that cares deeply for their customers and their staff. If for some reason I can't decide where I want to eat, the Red Door is always my choice no matter how many times I've been there that week. I always feel at home there. I have some work associates from outside of Richmond, and they always ask to go back to the Red Door for lunch when in town.
Give it a try and order a nice pasta dish, a cold sandwich, or one of the daily specials, you'll love it.
POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE – I just came from the Red Door for lunch. I called in an order for a chicken tender salad which was $7.25 plus tax. When I checked the bag I had a few pieces of lettuce, 3 cucumbers and a green pepper! WHAT!!! I asked the owener several times did she expect me to pay $8 for this. After receiving blank stares I requested my money back and was told I could not get my money back. After counting backwards several times I requested it again and was told that because I was paying for another persons food that I had to give her half the money in cash! WHAT!!! I asked for the whole order to be voided and when she did, she banned me from the restaurant. So you know that I filed a complaint with the 3 B's(they blocked me from using the technical name).....seeing as though they have menu's without a phone number listed and they were not listed with the 3 B's(not surprising). Some locals love this restaurant but I've only noticed mostly white americans eating in there. Maybe she does like blacks, I did see an older black male in the kitchen from time to time and have spoken to him as I walked to the bank and as he swept the trash in front of the building! PORTIONS VERY BAD, CUSTOMER SERVICE IS POOR, and food is OVER-PRICED! Try STEVE'S RESTAURANT right up the block, WONDERFUL FOOD, and they have WONDERFUL PRICES! Sorry for any typo's .....
A perfect example of inspiration coming from strange places. – The Scene
A lunchtime favorite, Red Door is a great place to grab a quick meal downtown and eavesdrop on the business being discussed around you. In fact, more than one scoop has been generated by a reporter from the newspaper across the street who "accidentally" overheard a deal taking place between two local heavyweights. Despite the upscale clientele that frequent Red Door, the interior is decidedly unassuming.
The Food
Its Greek/Italian/American fare is not especially creative or unexpected, but it does provide those needing a midday pick-me-up with a hearty meal and generous portions to restore their energy. Daily specials usually include seafood and pasta dishes that are worth checking out. During peak hours, expect a short wait; the result is well worth it.

Founder and CEO, Amazon
When it comes to the tech giant he built from scratch, Bezos has always prioritized long-term gains over short-term profitability, a philosophy that's yielding palpable results. Analysts estimate Amazon Web Services, a cloud-based computing platform used by hundreds of thousands of businesses around the world, could generate as much as $1.5 billion. And the company's Amazon's (AMZN, Fortune 500) Kindle Fire line helped popularize the 7-inch tablet form such that Apple finally released a version of its own. --JP Mangalindan

AMAZING dress! AMAZING price! When I went to David's Bridal I went in with a budget. I tried on like 10 dresses within that budget, and just none of them felt right. I almost settled with one I wasn't so sure about until the lady went and checked my size one more time and brought out one more she thought I might like because it had things I liked about other ones I tried on. I LOVED it! It was perfect, my Grandma and Nana both agreed it was THE ONE. I felt like a princess on my wedding day!!! March 25, 2013
PERFECT wedding gown I was shopping for a dress online and my husband and I are both older and this wasn't either of our first wedding so I didn't want to be a princess in a big poofy gown, just something simple and elegant. When I went into the store for my appt. I told the lady that I wanted this dress and she didn't think they had it there because it was a discounted dress but she ended up having it there and in my size! Anyway, this dress was just how I imagined it would be and I couldn't be happier with the results... Thank you David's Bridal!! March 13, 2013
Good Fit I am only 5 feet tall, so the train on the dress seems really long when I put it on. I plan to have my dress altered in a few weeks. I love the way it fits my body, and I believe this dress is very much suitable for all body types. My wedding is in September. Congrats to those you are married and those who are looking forward the their BIG DAY!!!! March 10, 2013

Boasting one hundred pages of rich photography and exclusive feature stories, Mascot Magazine puts the Concours d'Elegance experience into the hands of any collectible automobile fan. With Issue Number One featuring rare Duesenbergs, a 1933 Packard Super 8 Sport Phaeton, a 1947 Delahaye 135M, the 1953 Hudson Italia prototype and the 1957 Rolls-Royce EX 44/Hooper, Mascot Magazine brings collectible cars to life like no other publication.
ALPHARETTA, Ga., Jan. 31, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Concours d'Elegance events offer an unforgettable opportunity for automotive enthusiasts to get up close and personal with custom coach built, show cars, prototypes and cars with exceptional histories. Mascot Magazine, a new magazine series, now brings this experience in print and directly into the hands of any collectible car fan.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140131/NY56879)
A hallmark of the 100-page publication is rich, full-page and double-page photography, making Mascot feel more like a collectible coffee table book than the typical automotive publication. Editor/Publisher, Jim Pixley, is dedicated to presenting collectible automobiles in a wholly unique way.
"Each car is a true work of art, and we want to present them in that way. Our mandate is to essentially bring unique feature stories and stunning imagery into one magazine – much like a print version of a Concours d'Elegance event," he says.
Continuing, "Five feature stories will be included with each issue, with each feature comprising around eighteen pages of bold photography, car stories and histories, giving our readers the opportunity to explore the world's rarest cars in fantastic detail. Mascot was created for those who share a passion for extraordinary automobiles. We offer our readers unparalleled access to the cars they love."
Five feature stories in Issue Number One cover a Concours d'Elegance event and four very rare automobiles. 'A Day with the Legendary Duesenbergs,' features the Duesenbergs honored at the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance. Rare automobiles featured include a 1933 Packard Super 8 Sport Phaeton purchased for the Fire Chief of Albany, New York, a 1947 Delahaye 135 M/Chapron, the 1953 Hudson Italia Prototype and the 1957 Rolls-Royce EX 44/Hooper – an experimental car with the marque's first production V8 engine.
"We are passionate about continuing to bring our readers the world's most collectible automobiles and presenting them in a way that allows our readers to experience each car we feature as if they were with the car in person," Pixley adds.
Mascot Magazine is offered exclusively through the publication's official website, with Issue Number One on sale for just $14.99. For more information, visit: http://www.mascotmagazine.com.
Enthusiasts can also join the magazine's growing online Facebook community: https://www.facebook.com/MascotMagazine.
About Mascot Magazine:
Mascot Magazine brings readers the Concours d'Elegance experience in print. Each issue of Mascot will bring its readers five feature stories, highlighting cars that are worthy of the 18 pages or so that we will use to tell their stories. The magazine wants readers to see these cars as only Mascot will present them, hear from the owners and share each car's unique story.

Titans Caravan brings QB Jake Locker to Hampton Elementary
Wearing a camouflaged Titans hat, jeans and boots, the future face of the Tennessee Titans organization fit in just fine at Hampton Elementary.
Quarterback Jake Locker, the team's 2011 first-round draft selection, headlined the organization's first-ever Titans Caravan appearance in Carter County during a Wednesday morning visit to the local school.
"I haven't been over here yet, so this is my first opportunity to kind of check out this part of the state," Locker said. "It's awesome to see how much support we get, not only in the Nashville-area or the surrounding community there, but all of Tennessee as well. It's really cool."
One of 24 school visits scheduled within the 50 stops on the two-week three state tour, Hampton students were educated on healthy living as part of the NFL's Play 60 initiative via a partnership with the Tennessee State Parks with a special appearance by Titans Pro Bowl mascot T-Rac.
Locker received an extra-warm welcome from the Hampton students as he spoke about exercise and nutrition and the importance of getting 60 minutes of activity each day.
"We're building off of NFL's Play 60 initiative and encouraging kids to get out from in front of the TV, put the video game controllers down and get outside," Locker said. "Move around for 60 minutes, do something active for at least 60 minutes a day — it would be awesome if they wanted to do more than that, eating right, putting the right things in your body and also making sure they get the right amount of rest so these kids can grow and get their bodies the way they're supposed to."
After a last year's league lockout forced cancellation of the annual Caravan event, the Titans have made an extra-push this offseason to reach out to new faces and new fans, and specifically in East Tennessee Wednesday with the future of the club's quarterback position making five stops.
Locker, an avid fan of the outdoors, who drives a Chevy truck and listens to country music, gives much of the football fan-base in this area a Titan star to whom they can relate. And without former University of Tennessee hero Peyton Manning in the same division and a local addition in Kingsport's Cody Sensabaugh to the roster via this year's draft, the time is now for the Titans' rise in East Tennessee — according to the team's lead radio voice Mike Keith.
"I think the bottom line is, it's about time," said Keith. "We're 15 years into this now. We're sort of the Titans 2.0. Steve McNair got us started, and Eddie George and Frank Wychek and Jevone Kearse. Now it's Jake Locker and Chris Johnson and Kendall Wright and Derrick Morgan. It's their time. It's fun for me to see this second group come in and take this thing.
"From 1999 to 2003, we won 61 games, went into the playoffs four times, best record in football in 2000. We had a good run. We're getting ready to do that again, I believe, and it's fun."
A key element of this new Titans, steered by soon-to-be second year head coach Mike Munchak, is Locker.
Drafted eighth overall one year ago, the native of Ferndale, Wash., studied behind starter Matt Hasselbeck and showed out in his five game appearances as a rookie reserve, completing 34 of 66 passing for 542 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions.
His 282 yards against New Orleans was the most by a rookie quarterback in the organization since the Oilers' inaugural season, when Jacky Lee picked Boston apart with 331 yards. Locker's final appearance, against Indianapolis, saw an 11 of 16 showing for 108 yards and touchdown in the last six minutes of that game.
For Locker, the whole professional football experience his first year was nothing short of a dream come true.
"That's the best way to describe it," said Locker. "From this time last year, when I was able to get drafted here to this organization and to go through a season and a first year in the NFL, it was something I dreamed about since I was a little kid and had the opportunity to kind of live out last year. It was a lot of fun."
The role of understudy behind Hasselbeck helped Locker better adapt to the NFL way of life as a rookie. A player known for his competitiveness and toughness at the collegiate level, Locker said the hardest part of adjusting to professional football wasn't the speed on the field or growth as a player and leader. Instead, it was taking something that was part-time in college and cultivating a career from it.
"I think the biggest thing for me to adjust to was the routine of turning it into something you did part-time, 'cause you're a student half the time you are in college, going from that to making football your full-time job and establishing a routine within that was the biggest challenge for me that first year." Locker said. "I'm looking forward to the second season where that's kind of in place now. You know what to expect and you're a little more comfortable with that."
Locker will battle with Hasselback for the starting role when the team begins training this summer, but whomever is given the keys to the ship will be piloting a team that returns much of the pieces that fell one game shy of the playoffs one year ago with a 9-7 record as well as a draft class that improved the team's speed and strength as a whole.
"I think we were excited about the team we had last year," Locker said. "We were close last year. I think we have a lot of those pieces of the puzzle coming back and we added some new ones. We're looking forward to what this year has in store for us."
Whether it's this season or next season, Locker will take his turn in Nashville and become what the team hopes is the successful heir-apparent quarterback to the late Steve McNair — a role previous first-round draftee Vince Young was unable to attain during his brief stay in Tennessee.
"I think what we feel like about Jake and what they said the minute they drafted him, (general manager) Mike Reinfeldt and (head coach) Mike Munchak, the minute after they drafted him they said, 'Jake Locker is a fit for the Tennessee Titans,'" said Keith. "We found that to be totally true. Not only as a player, not only running our offense and being our quarterback but from a leadership standpoint, having guys respond to him and even situations like this (Caravan).
"This is who we are. We're a regional team. We expect — you see all of those kids wearing Titans jerseys — we're a ways from Nashville, but we want them to grow up Titans fans, so we've got to market regionally and everybody understands it's everybody in the organization's job to help with that. Winning football games is the best way to do it, the Titans Caravan is another way to do it and he obviously fits doing this. When you see him in the school program, you'll see the impact he makes. For a lot of these kids, they'll never forget today and that's special."
— — —
Heading into this year's NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans looked to improve their depth as far as overall team speed and strength were concerned. According to Keith, those issues were addressed.
First-round selection, Baylor wide receiver Kendall Wright, brings an explosiveness. North Carolina linebacker Zach Brown, taken in the second-round, is a three-down type player. Third pick Mike Martin will figure right into the defensive tackle rotation, then there's Sensabaugh, a star at both Dobyns-Bennett and collegiately at Clemson, who was taken in the fourth-round as a cornerback.
"We're really excited about what he's going to do," Keith said of Sensabaugh. "To get a Tennessee kid is such a big deal, but he fills a big need at corner and running a 4.31 (40-yard dash), having a chance to be competitive and get in the mix for the nickel or the dime spot and help us on special teams."
The most intriguing guy to Keith is fifth-rounder Taylor Thompson, a tight end from SMU, who figures to add another dimension to what starter Craig Stevens and back-up Jared Cook offer.
"You talk about a guy that's 6-6, 260 that's been an All-Conference USA defensive end who can move over and play tight end and sort of be that combo guy," Keith said. "Stevens is really a great blocker who can catch. Cook is the receiver and this is a guy who can sort of be both. You know he's physical, because he played defense, and athletically he was a high school All-American tight end so he can fit into that."
Markelle Martin from Oklahoma State, pegged prior to the 2011 season as a potential top safety pick, was taken in the sixth-round with Rice defensive end Scott Solomon winding out the team's draft in the seventh-round.
"All of those guys, too, they help your depth, they help your roster more competitive," said Keith. "But let me tell you what stands out to me the most, when you get to Sunday, you're figuring you've got to make seven guys inactive. You want guys who can compete for the 46 active roster spots. All of those guys can play special teams. All of those guys can play sub packages. Hey, you could put Thompson on defensive end to rush a passer at the end of a game if you had to. That's what you want in today's NFL, that versatility."
— — —
A team that was pegged to win three games prior to the 2011 season surprised a lot of people with a 9-7 campaign that fell just shy of the playoffs.
Keith said it's no surprise that optimism is high around the young organization as the Caravan makes its way across Tennessee, Kentucky and Alabama.
"That's what we're finding on the road," he said. "The optimism is back. The excitement within our fans is back. The crowds have been bigger than they were. We didn't have a caravan last year, but these are the biggest crowds we've had in four or five years. What else is back is expectations and Coach Munchak really welcomes the expectations. He was out with us on Friday and somebody yelled, 'Coach, we expect you to go in the playoffs.' He said, 'I expect to go to the playoffs to, we all do.'
"That's exciting because we've been kind of down, it had been a rough couple of years, then to go through the lockout and the coaching change and not knowing what was going to happen — to have last year go down the way it did, you're picked to win three games and you go 9-7 and have all of these things going your way. We're an ascending team again, tough schedule, but if we go do what we should do, we'll be tested going into the playoffs and be as dangerous as anybody."
Tennessee opens its regular season at home Sept. 9 against defending Tom Brady, Bill Belichick and AFC champion New England.
