recruiting Ph.D. candidates can go into recruiting people for the chemical workforce. Maybe we need to recruit more people to be chemistry majors.
I was talking to John Schwab about how. This is like a chemical synthesis: Do we want to improve recruitment from 60 to 80 percent? From an industrial point of view it is cheaper, but can you do both if you want to recruit more? Ronald Webb pointed out objectives, goals, strategies, and measures (OGSM). If we have a goal of improving the diversity of the chemical workforce, maybe one goal should be to get two people from every high school who want to major in chemistry. Maybe a strategy should be for universities and businesses to work with high schools and high school teachers to get students interested in science and chemistry. Maybe a part of that strategy could be a small scholarship, such as $2,000. Two people per school, or we will buy all their chemistry books. A company can do that.
We could do things like that. We could have the goal of getting two students out of every high school to major in chemistry. We could have a strategy for doing it with scholarships or buying books or having universities work with schools. It is a measurable objective.
I am pushing recruitment, because recruitment is as important and as useful as most of the other things that we need to try, and we need to try them all.
Stanley C. Israel, Southwest Texas State University: If we are talking about the chemical workforce, there is a part of the chemical workforce that we have not addressed except tangentially, and that is the K-12 teachers.
In fact, the other part that we have not really addressed is what happens to our undergraduate students that do not go on for a Ph.D. This is the feedback loop that we are missing. We can affect the pipeline, but what we need is teachers in K-12 who are chemists, who are scientists, who have love of the discipline and can convey the excitement of that discipline to their students.
We are not educating our undergraduates about what is important. That is the only way we are going to greatly affect the pipeline. Across the country, school boards are downgrading the qualifications of the science teacher. Rather than be a chemist and go into the teaching profession, their requirements are teachers who can teach any science course. If they take three courses in each of chemistry, physics, geology, and planetary science, they can then teach any science course in grades 9-12.
That is the trend across the nation, and we should be addressing that with our chemistry students by saying, this is a viable profession for you, K-12th-grade teaching. One other point: It has been said here that we lose a lot of students because chemistry is too hard, and they go over to the liberal arts—to the departments of letters as I like to refer to them—because they get better grades.
Let me explain to you why they are at the departments of letters and we are at the departments of numbers and why they get better grades over there. When one of our chemistry or science students takes an exam and gets 100 and takes the next exam and gets a zero, 100 and zero averages out to 50, and that is an F.
The same student in liberal arts gets an A and an F. An A and an F averages out to a C. They look at science as unforgiving. They cannot make a mistake in science. If they miss an exam, they get a zero, and a zero and 100 equal an F. But over in liberal arts, an A and an F average out to a C. That is why they are in letters and we are in numbers.
Isai T. Urasa, Hampton University: Just a comment about orientation. I want to underscore the importance of orientation even in our academic institutions. I would say that orientations are even more important in our academic institutions than in industry.
When you come into academia, there are three things that you are supposed to do: teach, serve, and

Maybe you too have noticed the hugely heightened media hype and hypocrisy we're all forced to tolerate that has nothing to do with substance. We're talking about TV news stations playing games and contests (coincidentally during ratings sweeps) in the newscasts, having nothing whatsoever to do with news or weather and everything to do with goosing (bribing is a better word) their ratings.
Sports shows do it too. Not so much with contests but with hyped content and conversation far too subjective and sensationalized to be serious. For example: "Is the Greatest of All Time…Kobe or LeBron?"
For many who await the tip-off of the University of Memphis men's basketball season like a favorite holiday, losing is not part of the equation, especially with a Division 2, crosstown team as the opponent. Never mind that the game did not officially count.
So, what happened at the FedExForum on Wednesday night? By the numbers it was a 74-70 defeat in overtime to the Christian Brothers University Buccaneers.
When Memphis Grizzlies General Manager Chris Wallace started as the general manager for the Boston Celtics in 1997, head coach Rick Pitino sent him and other staff members a sternly worded letter with a clear demand:
"We can not expect for players to be in world class physical condition when on a daily basis they encounter members of our staff who are overweight and out of shape. This is your target weight. If you do not reach your target weight by the expected date, feel free to seek employment with someone else."
With a clear need for additional resources to complete the analysis of backlogged rape kits, Mayor A C Wharton Jr. said Wednesday the city would "seize the opportunity" to apply for funds through the Manhattan (New York) district attorney's office when requests for proposals are issued next spring.
Manhattan D.A. Cyrus R. Vance Jr. announced Wednesday that evidence from up to 70,000 rape cases nationwide would get long-awaited DNA testing as he pledged as much as $35 million to help eliminate a backlog that has long troubled authorities, victims and lawmakers.
I was raised to be a real man by a man who was a real man…my father. He wasn't just a real man, but a gentleman as well who put my mother on a pedestal when they met at Tuskegee Institute in 1941 and he never took her off of it.
My parents loved and honored each other daily, my father literally "worshipped" my mother, she loved him madly and cared for him to perfection, seriously. They kissed on the lips in the morning as my dad would be on his way out; they kissed when he got home. They kissed in public; they even kissed outside in the backyard. And every time they kissed, they smiled at one another.

|by Mr Credit Card
This article is a guest post from Steve Sildon, Managing Editor for Credit Card Assist and frequent contributor in the blogesphere, writing about personal finance, credit cards and other credit-related topics.
The number of consumers with poor credit is increasing rapidly. Between the mortgage crisis and the typical middle-income credit card holder charging more than they can reasonably afford to repay – the growing trend of low credit scores now includes about one third of the nation's population – or 110 million Americans.
Credit card issuers have begun tightening their lending practices and exercising their contractual rights to change the cards' terms and conditions of their cardholder agreements at any given time and for any reason they deem necessary. People who haven't made even a single late payment on their credit cards are finding themselves with lower credit limits and much higher interest rates. Some people have even said that their payment due dates had been moved up to earlier in the month and their grace periods, which allow cardholders to make payments without paying interest, had been shortened. Virtually everyone has felt the effect of the credit crisis and lenders sweeping efforts to maintain profitability with higher fees and
interest rates despite an increasing number of people getting behind on their payments. But card issuers will have new rules regarding interest rate hikes and changing card agreement terms that will take effect in July of 2010, providing some relief to cardholders who have felt the impact of these draconian policies.
You don't have to throw in the towel though. If you find yourself struggling with debt, credit card debt in particular, during the credit crunch, now is the time to start making changes to put yourself in a better situation financially over the long haul. Believe it or not, changing your behavior now while the fire is "hot" is one of the best financial opportunities that you might ever have.
Here are 6 tips on how to survive too much debt and not enough credit:
1. Don't Run Away from the Problem: The worst thing that you can
do is ignore creditors if they're calling you for payment. As a matter of fact, don't let this happen. Get out in front of the problem if you can see it coming. You'll get much further by explaining your situation to your creditors ahead of time, asking for flexible payment arrangements or additional time to make a payment than you will by hiding from the calls. Your creditors are more likely to be flexible if they are informed of your situation before its overdue.
2. Formulate a Plan: Before contacting your creditors, you need to put a repayment plan together so you have a solid understanding of what you can and cannot afford to repay every month. In doing so, ask yourself the following questions:
- What is my total monthly household income that I can count on
- What are my total monthly fixed payments, including mortgage or rent, car loans, utilities etc.
- What are my variable expenses that might include groceries, gas, entertainment,
clothes, etc.
Getting specific about your total income and expenses to give you clarity about what you can comfortably repay your creditors is absolutely vital. Above all, do not overpromise your creditors. Only commit to what you know you can afford. Failing to follow through with a creditor on a repayment plan can cost you dearly.
3. Making Small Payments is Better than Nothing: The simple fact of the matter is that many people can't afford to pay anything on their outstanding credit card bills right now. Even making very small payments of $5 to $10 each month might be enough to placate your debt holders, at least temporarily. You can ask that in exchange for these small incremental payments that they hold off on sending your account to collections while you try to get back on your feet. They may kick and scream about it the whole time, but it's better to be making smaller payments rather than none at all.
4. Stop Taking on New Debt: It may sound like an oversimplification, but this is where the rubber hits the road. For people who have always relied on credit cards even for unexpected or emergency expenses, this can be a difficult habit to break but is crucial for success in digging out of your situation. Make a commitment to yourself and stop taking on debt by charging on your credit cards. Period.
5. Start Making Lifestyle Changes Today: You can start right away to make the lifestyle changes that will benefit you immensely in the long term. You can start immediately by trimming some of those disposable discretionary expenses. For example, I have implemented a temporary "no-fly" zone on the following items:
- Convenience Stores
- Drive-Thru's
- Mochas and Lattes
Cutting out these discretionary items might sound obvious to some, horrifying to others, but if left unchecked, they can add up very quickly. Cutting out just these 3 categories of spending alone saved me $114 in the first month. Cutting out the "Half-Caf, Decaf" lattes sounded daunting at first, but mourning the loss quickly dissipated after seeing the difference that it made to my bottom line.
6. Increase Your Income: I know, I know – it's easier said than done, but increasing your income is another option that will certainly help to alleviate the financial pressure that you might be feeling right now. One of the easiest ways to increase your income is to consider consulting or freelancing from home at nights and on the weekends when you're not at your regular job. It might be surprising to hear, but everyone has expertise or passion in something. No matter what your profession, there are plenty of opportunities to freelance and take advantage of your particular passion or unique area of expertise. You can easily find work on any of the dozens of freelance web sites available online.
Rest assured in knowing that you aren't alone. Right now, many people are struggling with not enough credit and far too many debts. Thankfully, many creditors have begun offering assistance and more understanding than they have in the past. Creditors realize that it's in their best interest to keep you from defaulting, even if it means being a bit more flexible with the payment agreement temporarily.
My 6 step plan can go a long way in helping to relieve the problem that so many of us are now facing. By dealing with the problem head on, formulating a plan, making small payments and lifestyle changes, increasing your income if possible, and above all, stopping taking on new debt, there is hope for you and the rest of us for a new day and, hopefully, some light at the end of the tunnel.

Coughs and sneezes are scary signs these days. We're on edge about the spread of a new virus that began in pigs and is called swine flu. The outbreaks could be more harmful than ordinary flu because we haven't yet developed natural immunity (disease resistance), so the federal government declared a health emergency and reminds us about basic precautions we should follow all the time anyway.
At least 226 U.S. cases had been reported as of last weekend, with at least one death. Federal health officials recommend that schools and child care facilities with confirmed cases close for up to 14 days. All schools were shut last week in Fort Worth, Texas, and other districts closed some buildings for sanitizing. In all, about 250,000 students nationwide had a sudden day off Friday.Adults and pupils who feel ill advised to stay home. Thorough, frequent hand-washing and use of alcohol-based gels such as Purell is urged. Some people wear face masks in public, though it's unclear if that helps.
In Mexico, where the outbreak began last month, more than 500 cases were reported at over 100 people have died. The government ordered a five-day partial shutdown of nonessential government offices and businesses until the middle of this week.
U.S. precautions include shipping millions of doses of anti-flu drugs to states. Stricter steps to prevent the illness's spread could include discouraging or banning public gatherings. Globally, the World Health Organization warns of an imminent pandemic (epidemic over a wide area) because scientists don't know what this new virus might do and how long it will keep spreading.
Symptoms: Virtually the same as from regular flu - fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, headache, chills and fatigue.

Thousands of students woke up early, packed their backpacks, and headed back to school.
Tuesday morning about 27,000 students went back to school.
Both Mishawaka and South Bend schools were back in session.
Parents, students and teachers say they were eager to start the new year and see old friends.
"My daughter was all dressed and ready to go real early. She was excited, now the rest of the year that probably won't be the case," says parent Jamie Boyer.
Mishawaka students only go to school for a half day Tuesday and Wednesday. On Thursday, the district starts a normal schedule.

Former Aurora pastor pleads guilty to stealing $1.6M
By Erika Wurst Sun-Times Media August 1, 2013 8:36PM
Howard Richmond
The former pastor of an Aurora church pleaded guilty Thursday to stealing more than $1.6 million in donations and investments intended for the expansion of his church.
Howard Richmond, 52, of Naperville, was the pastor of Life Reach Ministries, a storefront church near the Fox Valley Mall.
Prosecutors said Richmond portrayed himself as a successful pastor who showed members of his congregation and other supporters bank documents stating that he had millions of dollars in the bank.
From October 2009 through June 2010, prosecutors said Richmond solicited funds from his victims with claims that he needed the money to expand his church. He promised to repay each loan, frequently with a significant premium.
His ruse ended up raking in more than $1.6 million in funds.
Prosecutors later determined that the documents Richmond was showing his victims were forged and that the church was in debt. They said the victims received no repayment on their loans.
"Mr. Richmond took advantage of the generosity of others to line his own pockets," said DuPage County State's Attorney Robert Berlin. "He betrayed the trust placed in him as pastor of the church, leveraging his victims' faith to the tune of more than $1.6 million."
Berlin thanked Officer Scott Reid and Investigator Robert Guerrieri of the Aurora Police Department as well as Assistant State's Attorney Shanti Kulkarni for their work in uncovering Richmond's scheme.
Richmond's next court appearance is scheduled for Dec. 9, 2013. He faces a possible sentence of up to 14 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections.

Allenstown police train for the worst kind of day at a school
Allenstown police officers took part in a training drill Thursday to prepare for a situation involving a shooter at a school. (Ryan O'Connor/Union Leader Correspondent)
Allenstown Police Chief Paul Paquette said exercises such as the one on display Thursday are vital to saving lives should a real threat present itself, a thought echoed by Fire Chief Dana Pendergast, who said learning to work with police officers and school administrators is critical.
"This is really important to have an understanding of the procedures and to have a safety plan in place, which is something we take very serious," said Armond R. Dupont School Principal Mark Dangora. "It's critical for the agencies, collectively, to work together with one another, and communication is the key ... there were definitely some learning moments today."

At some point, Schoettle explains, it doesn't make economic sense to continue exploring and producing the gas even though there might be some there. "You may find some of the other technologies simply take over because it's no longer economical to pull it out of the ground," he says.

While individual citrus trees are standard in residential yards across Arizona, commercial crops of lemons, tangerines, oranges and grapefruit are produced in the warm climates of Yuma, Mohave, Maricopa and Pinal counties.Today Arizona is second only to California in lemon production. In 2000, Arizona supplied 13 percent of the nation's tangerines (third in the U.S.), and remains the fourth largest producer of both oranges and grapefruit. Overall, Arizona produces 38,000 tons of citrus each year, valued at more than $15 million and accounts for thousands of citrus-related jobs within the state.
We need your help to prevent the spread of citrus diseases. You have heard the saying "move it or lose it." Well, when it comes to citrus trees, we say "Move It AND Lose It." When you move citrus trees, you risk losing America's citrus altogether.

St. Barth: France in the Caribbean
The island of St. Barth is like a miniature French Riviera that has split from its mother country and sailed off into the Caribbean. With its sumptuous duty-free boutiques, world-class hotels, and yacht-lined harbor, it's no wonder that the island has become the playground to the rich and famous. But ordinary travelers can enjoy St. Barth, too, and for those North American-based Francophiles and romantics who dream of a quick getaway to Paris, there is a taste of France much closer to home.

Visiting the Caribbean on a Budget
There's no doubt about it – the Caribbean is a long-standing bastion of sun, sand and that unmistakable rippling blue water. From tales of swashbuckling pirates to Jimmy Buffet's rummy good times accompanied by a steel drum backdrop – if you've never been to the Caribbean, you're in for the treat of a lifetime. The Caribbean is a perfect spot for getting away from it all. And while getting away from it all sounds exotic (and it is), it doesn't have to break the bank. There are ways around spending a fortune to get to some beautiful island escapes. Here are some of the best ways to get to experience the Caribbean on a budget.

Caribbean Adventure Highlights from the Spice Island of Grenada
Grenada is one of those places that defy reason. It boasts pristine beaches, endless outdoor adventure, and a vibrant population of warm, welcoming locals, yet the Caribbean island of Grenada (not to be confused with the Spanish city of Granada) barely registers on the radars of many seasoned Caribbean travelers. But their loss is your gain because this lush volcanic isle in the far southeastern Caribbean might just be one of the best off-the-beaten-track escapes you've never heard of, and with easy direct flights from the US to boot.

Lesser Known Caribbean Destinations: Trinidad and Tobago
When researching islands in the Caribbean for vacation, you might not immediately think of Trinidad and Tobago. But since they (especially Trinidad) have an economy that is not tourism-based, you get a chance to experience a different kind of not-specially-engineered-for-tourists Caribbean island, and you might just be surprised at what you find. The archipelago nation also lies outside of what in the Caribbean is called the "hurricane belt," which is a big advantage over some of its northern neighbors.

A new area in the field of psychology which has hardly ever been studied is the relationship between mental health and nutrition. This article focuses on the association between the consumption of certain fatty acids, depression, bipolar disorder, and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children.
When addressing the relationship between certain nutrients and mental health, a great amount of research has been conducted on omega-3 fatty acids, in particular the long-chain fatty acids eicosapentaenoid acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). EPA and DHA have been linked to ADHD, depression and bipolar disorder. According to epidemiological studies, there is a significant negative correlation between higher fish consumption and mood disorders. Thus, countries in which diet is predominantly comprised of oily fish, report lower levels of depression and other mood disorders in their population (Parker, Gibson, Brotchie, Heruc, Rees, & Hadzi-Pavlovic, 2006).
In the case of bipolar disorder, low plasma omega-3 and high omega-6 levels are familial trait markers (Sobczak, Honic, & Christophe, 2004). Therefore, there has been a growing interest in the use of omega-3 fatty acids as a therapeutic tool in treating bipolar disorder. In a pilot study, supplementation with 2000 mg EPA/day correlated with a 50% decrease in depressive symptoms, as measured by the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (Osher, Bersudsky, & Belmaker, 2005).
Omega-6 fatty acids are the most common polyunsaturated fat consumed in the Standard American Diet (SAD). The problem with the SAD diet is its high proportion of omega-6 fatty acids and low proportions of omega-3s compared to diets consumed by other healthier cultures. Foods containing the highest amounts of omega-6 fats are: margarine, mayonnaise, salad dressings, snack foods, processed foods and fast foods. In contrast, omega-3 fatty acids can be found in high quantities in flaxseed, chia seeds, walnuts, hemp seeds, purslane, and oily fish.
According to research, there is a strong association between lowered omega-3 levels and depressive symptoms. Thus, omega-6 to omega-3 ratios play an important role in symptom severity of mood disorders. Therefore, supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids has been used in intervention studies as a treatment for depression. In their study, Su, Huang, Chiu, and Shen (2003) used a high dose of EPA (2200 mg DHA and 4400 mg EPA/day) on patients with depression. The results indicated a significant reduction in depressive symptoms compared with the control group.
In the case of ADHD, studies have also shown that lower plasma levels of essential fatty acids are associated with increased behavior problems (Rojas & Chan, 2005). In one study, children who were not taking stimulant medication, were given 400 mg flax oil and 50 mg/day vitamin C. Results indicated significant improvements in their ADHD symptoms after three months (Joshi, Lad, & Kale, 2006). In another study, Australian children with ADHD were given supplementation of fish and evening primrose oils. Results indicated significant improvements on the Conners ADHD and Global Index scores, as well as decreased hyperactivity, impulsiveness, oppositional behavior and restlessness (Sinn, & Bryan, 2007).
Unfortunately, most of the research on mood disorders and depression has focused on supplementing diets with omega-3 fatty acids without addressing the unhealthy eating patterns associated with elevated omega-6 to omega-3 ratios. Future research should focus on diets comprised mainly of whole foods. By eliminating processed foods, it would seem that one would be able to reestablish a healthy balance of omega-6 to omega-3, thus improving physical and mental health.
Joshi, K., Lad, S., Kale, M., Patwardhan, B., Mahadik, SP., Patni, B., Chaudhary, A., Bhave, S., & pandit, A. (2006). Supplementation with flax oil and vitamin C improves the outcome of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Prostaglandins Leukot Essent Fatty Acids, 74, 17-21.

- Fleming's is always very consistently excellent.OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/26/2014For a two birthday occasion, with one on the actual day, a pre-arranged flower arrangement was on the table that was just perfect as I had ordered. Nick's service was excellent throughout the dining experience for seven of us. James Cooke, the Operating Partner, came over and gave special attention to the birthday ladies, with a nice desert boat for them also. Just a delightful dining experience, and could not have been better. I have been a fan of Fleming's for years now and have enjoyed four different Fleming locations, however I favor the downtown Austin location and this experience is why.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Truly the beat burger in town!JennKVIPDined on 11/21/2014The happy hour burger is by far the beat one we have had in Austin, and from 5-7pm it is only $6! Can't beat it, bar none!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not good for vegetariansBruno68VIPDined on 11/4/2014We had a party of 10, which included 3 vegetarians. I was surprised that in a progressive town like Austin, a restaurant of this caliber didn't have a single real vegetarian dish. We were reduced to ordering sides. I'd recommend adding a nice risotto or pasta dish to the menu.Special Features:
- AustinDinerVIPDined on 11/1/2014We had reservations for 9pm, but were not seated until almost 10:30. The food was excellent; however the service was extremely slow. The hostess staff was completely confused, yet nonchalant about the chaos. The manager, however, recognized the problems and bought a round of drinks at the beginning and sent out free desserts for our group. It was a busy night with F1 crowds and all, but I don't think the hostess staff was prepared to handle the crowds.Special Features:
- Great first experienceLoveOpenTableDined on 10/30/2014We had a terrific time & the food was hooked to perfection. We really appreciated a call the day prior to confirm our reservation. Very pleasedSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- not the best steak house in AustinopentablefanVIPDined on 9/5/2014We have eaten in Flemings several times before and it has always been good. I don't think it is the best steak house around.We were disappointed that prime rib is only on Sundays and although our misunderstanding was not the restaurant`s fault it did impact our perception.The carpaccio was wonderful and the service was very good.
- Great FoodCATXDined on 8/25/2014It was our anniversary and they have a great Prime Rib special that we like to take advantage of so we were there on Monday night. The prime rib was excellent and the sauces were fantastic as always. The only downside to the evening was the waitress. We didn't have any alcoholic beverages and she was obviously disappointed that our bill would not be more expensive and when asked the side dish options, she merely pointed at the page in the menu. Too bad, it would have been a perfect evening otherwise.Special Features:

- Prime rib specialmicroladyDined on 8/24/2014Sunday nights there is a prime rib special. Three courses for $29.99. Salads were great, desserts were great, sides nothing really special,but the prime rib was not good, very fatty and a lot of grisal Three of had this and all 3 of us ate very little of the meat. I've been to various Flemings and this is the first time I have ever been disappointed. We had gone to Happy hour two nights before and were very happy wight the food. Stick to the regular menu if you go or do happy hourSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Very good mealmusicandfoodDined on 7/20/2014Greeted and seated promptly for our anniversary dinner. Service was good, but not outstanding. Had a very good Caesar Salad and prime rib, with Flemings potatoes that were outstanding. Chocolate lava cake for desert was excellent. Decent bottle of slightly too high priced Malbec. All in all a very good dinner and will likely return. Especially for the $30 three course prime rib dinner on Sundays.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great place for a steak!AlexVIPDined on 7/12/2014We decided to come to Fleming's for a celebration and I was really craving a nice steak. I ordered the dry aged New York strip, medium-rare and iron crusted topped with the truffled lobster and it was absolutely amazing. Make sure to order the Fleming's potatoes (kind of a potato/cheese/japapeno casserole), it was amazing. Fleming's was pretty expensive so personally I would only go during special occasions, but this is definitely my new favorite steak restaurant! I read reviews saying that the chocolate lava cake was a must try (you need to allow 15 minutes for them to make it), but I was a little underwhelmed. Overall though a wonderful experience. Also, our server was Lee and he was great.Special Features:
- Well DoneMountainBoyVIPDined on 7/4/2014The food and service are always a reason to return again and again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- garysVIPDined on 7/3/2014We eat at the Flemings downtown fairly often. Typically very good but the evening before the 4th of July probably not a good choice. Must not have been the "A" team in the kitchen. My first filet over cooked, the second try better but still not quite as good as typical. Our other entree was the chicken breast which was great as usual. You may not go to Flemings for the chicken but you should.Special Features:
- ConsistentoraystricklandVIPDined on 7/1/2014Great food and ambiance. Strong management, friendly and engaging. Their computer follow up and attention to detail is top notch.I would recommend this to a friend.
- MdadDined on 6/28/2014The food was terrible and so was the service. The filet was horrible, and the bone in filet we got was even worse. The filet was $40 and the bone in filet was $60, worst $100 spent, and that was just for the steaks, that's not including the sides, salad and drinks. The whole experience was just awful, and we left there hungry because we didn't even finish our meals. Don't eat there, very very disappointing
- Great ServicecelebrantsDined on 6/25/2014The service is always top notch at Flemings and they make special occasions even more special. The food was very good - an absolute necessity given the prices.Special Features:
- Fathers day special dinnerGwynnieDined on 6/15/2014The prime rib was excellent and the service superb. The vegetables ( broccoli and cauliflower) were too al dente we could not eat them. The room was a bit noisy. But the wine selection was amazing. Would have given 5 stars but for the vegetables and noise.Special Features:
- AustinfoodDined on 6/8/2014We went here for my Dad's birthday. Everyone made him feel extremely special! The meal was wonderful as well. Probably the best Wedge salad I have ever had. It came with a huge chunk of blue cheese. My husband ordered a Caesar Salad and said it was better than average as well. For entrees, Dad got their pork chop & a loaded bake potato, I got the Newport filet and husband got the petite filet. The pork chop was huge and Dad ate every bite, which means it was really good. My Newport came with the Fleming potatoes. We also ordered a side of asparagus. Everything was cooked to order. Overall a wonderful mean and experience. Extremely on point service. Junior was our server and did an amazing job. We can not wait to return.Special Features:
- Too darkNYBUDVIPDined on 5/29/2014We really enjoy FLeming's however the last time we ate there (this week) my entire party commented on how DARK the main dining room was. At another table nearby, all of the diners pulled out their phones and used the light of the phones to read their menus. Fleming's should read this and take it to heart. It actually diminshed an excellent (5 star) meal.Special Features:
- Flemming's Meets The ChallengeDFWBobDined on 5/21/2014This was my third visit to Fleming's and the third Fleming's location. All three experiences were nothing short of top drawer. For this downtown Austin location use the valet parking. We had the fried calamari to start and it was so good, we ended up ordering a second order. Our waiter, Nick, was warm, friendly and very knowledgeable. All four entrees were cooked to perfection. For the table of four, with cocktails, the dinner bill with gratuity was $450.00 and worth every bit.Special Features:
- luvtocelebrateDined on 5/17/2014Flemings was a wonderful place to celebrate a very quite dinner, Everyone there was so nice and came by and check on us perfectly. I give them a 10Special Features:
- mothers day brunchdisappointedVIPDined on 5/11/2014What a disapointment, Waited an hr for apetizers, when they finally came the soups were cold, Waited another 45min. for entres by that time we just wanted to get out of there. We usually are big fans but this was not a good experience.
- DeliciousJenniferVIPDined on 5/11/2014I have never been to Flemings before and we dined on Mother's day which I know is crazy at every restaurant. The hostess wasn't accomodating I asked to move tables due to us being near a screaming baby. She was unhappy about that and it showed in her treatment of us. After being seated the food blew us away. Our server was very polite and attentive. Considering it was Mother's Day everything came very quickly and most importantly correct. I absolutely loved it and will be there again very soon!Special Features:
- Very nice spotOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 5/4/2014I highly recommend a place to go eat steak. The steak was excellent. Nice variety of wine selection. I would definitely return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very disappointed ....ACupVIPDined on 4/28/2014We've eaten at Fleming's in Tulsa, Destin, Scottsdale, and San Antonio. This Fleming's was not the quality we've come to expect - the glass of wine was very small, the salmon was much smaller than in the past. Overall food quality felt like they were skimping on portions and quality. Also, the manager interrupted a conversation, knew she did and apologized, but kept on talking vs. saying she'd come back later. We will not be back.Special Features:

- Birthday celebration21forthewinVIPDined on 4/19/2014We chose Flemings in Austin for a special birthday celebration. We had a reservation on a Saturday evening and were promptly seated. Food and service were excellent. If you are a wine enthusiast, Flemings has a very nice wine list. At the conclusion of the meal, the birthday person was presented with a lovely box of chocolate truffles, compliments of the restaurant. The truffles were beautifully wrapped and were an unexpected extra special treat. We've celebrated other special occasions at Flemings and have never been disappointed. We will be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Excellent!SusieVIPDined on 4/6/2014Our steak was delicious as to be expected. However, there were several additional things that made the night very special. My dining companion has to eat gluten free, so when they brought the bread, we explained that. They came back with carrots and celery sticks so that we could eat that with the spreads that would have gone on the breads. (Most places just take the bread away, and that's that.) They brought out a small box of homemade truffles to say happy birthday. Fleming's is always top notch!Special Features:
- Excellent! But expensive!RickVIPDined on 3/20/2014Everything about Fleming's in Austin was outstanding. Can't fault them for anything. But, as it had been a few years since I'd been to a Fleming's, I guess I didn't realize just how very expensive it is. If you want a special occasion, with great food and service, and are prepared to pay for it, this is the place. But it's not for an everyday meal. I had an entree (the mahi mahi special - outstanding!), a wedge salad, and two glasses of wine. With tax and tip, it was nearly $100 for one person.Special Features:
- SXSWIlovefoodDined on 3/14/2014While at SXSW, we ate at Flemings downtown for dinner. The food was terrific!! I definitely recommend my meal (filet mignon Oscar style, blue cheese wedge salad, asparagus, and chocolate lava cake). I can't leave out the wine- it was excellent, the only problem is making a bottle choice with the huge selection.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ExcellentSusieVIPDined on 3/13/2014I took my mother-in-law for her birthday. The service was excellent and so was he good. Steaks are always superb! The seafood tower appetizer is absolutely amazing. My husband loves he molten lava cake. You can't go wrong with anything at Flemings!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Allen West Explains That Chinese and Somali People Don't Dream
People like making fun of Rep. Allen West because he's supposedly always saying a lot of silly stuff. But I watched this new campaign ad for a whole 11 seconds before I heard him say anything verging on self-parody…
"That's the American dream. There's no such thing as a Somali dream, a Chinese dream, there's one dream—the American dream and that's why people came to these shores."
Okay, laugh all you want, but let me ask you this: Have you ever actually seen a Somali person dream? Or a Chinese person? Can you prove that they were dreaming?
Well, then, don't you feel dumb.

In order to delete an object from the database the following steps should be performed:
For example:
Customer customerToDelete = dbContext.Customers.Last();
dbContext.Delete( customerToDelete );
Dim customerToDelete As Customer = dbContext.Customers.Last()
To remove an existing relation between objects in one-to-many relationship, simply use the object.Collection.Remove method. For example: category.Cars.Remove(car). To get this code working you need to set the IsManaged property of the collection in Visual Designer to True. For more information, read How to: Manage One-to-Many Association.
This section demonstrates how to automatically delete objects which are in parent-child relations using Telerik Data Access. When you want to automatically delete all of the child records of a parent record when the parent record is deleted, you need to perform a cascading delete.
Suppose, you have the following two tables in the database:
The Products table has a reference to the Categories table. Usually, the referenced table is called the parent table while the table with the foreign key is called the child table. In this example the Products table is the child table, and the Categories table is the parent table. A foreign key with a cascade delete means that if a record in the parent table is deleted, then the corresponding records in the child table will be deleted automatically. This is called a cascade delete.
Suppose, you have created a domain model reflecting the Categories and Products tables.
Cascading deletes are disabled by default and are only enabled for references specified as dependent. In order to configure your domain model to support cascading delete, you need to perform few simple steps:
In this example the Products property is specified as dependent. When you delete a specific Category object, then all referenced Product objects are deleted, too.
Telerik Data Access does not check for other references to the deleted dependent instances. If there are other references to the deleted dependent instances, you will get an exception. For example, consider the following domain model.
The Products property of the Category class is configured as dependent. At the same time, the OrderDetails property of the Product entity is not configured as dependent. If you delete a specific Category object, Telerik Data Access will try to delete all related Products. However, if there are OrderDetail objects referencing any of the deleted dependent products, you will get an exception. The correct configuration here is to specify the OrderDetails property as dependent.
Thus, when you delete a Category object, Telerik Data Access will delete all related Product objects, and all OrderDetail objects related to the deleted Product.
One additional thing you should know about is that the cascade delete does not work in the "parent->child" direction only. You could configure your domain model so that the cascade delete is available in the opposite direction, too. For example, if you make the Category property of the Product entity dependent, then you will achieve the following result: when you delete a child entity (e.g. Product), the corresponding parent entity (e.g. Category) will be deleted too.

My View: My 'Words with Friends' play: P-R-O-M-I-S-E
Date: May 16, 2012
by: Julie Aranibar | Guest Columnist
As we begin the season of graduations and celebrations it is also the time for school boards across the state to prepare for next year's budget and schedules. Most of my desk is covered with information for 2012-2013.
While I am reviewing data, my phone beeps for one of my "Words with Friends" games. It used to be called "Scrabble" for some of us, but this generation of graduates has an app form on their phones or computers.
I am proud to report that I am holding my own against some formidable competition — with the exception of one student. She knows who she is and I could not be more proud of her accomplishments, having known her since third grade and watching her begin her new life here in the East County.
Her parents are local business owners. They work hard each and every day, and education is the highest priority. Her parents gave up professions in China to begin a life in America, and last year, I had the honor of speaking at the National Honor Society induction ceremony in which she took part.
Now, if I could get an extra 75 points, I might have a chance at winning, but each time she beats me, I can't help but smile. For the high school and college students who are walking across the stage today, my wish is to have seven letters: P-R-O-M-I-S-E.
As each student graduates, there are parents who watch, knowing they have fulfilled their promise to their children. They have raised them, cared for them and made sure that they got to school and had what they needed to be successful students and adults. It takes a lot of commitment to raise a child, and they are proud of their children as they walk across the stage. They see the little ones they brought to kindergarten and now they are shaking the hands of their principals and school board members.
For our students who walk across this year, may your promise to your family and community be that you will do your best in college and careers to build your own families and community. May you promise to remember those who inspired you and may you get involved in your community, join organizations that help others, and, in that process, you will learn how much you have to be grateful for each day as you inspire others following you across a stage.
As your Manatee County School Board representative, my promise to our students and community is to be informed and prepared for meetings and to work toward changes that lead us upward in state rankings. Many things are changing, but what I do know is that our teachers did not stop teaching. We may have changed hours, schedules and curriculum, and our teachers kept on teaching.
This year my promise is to advocate for more time in class, to listen more to teachers when it comes to schedules and curriculum and be partners with teachers in planning for 2012-2013. My promise is to continue in Kiwanis and my service to children, as well as my school board duties to improve our state ranking. Thank you for your calls and emails and trusting me with your concerns. I appreciate the care and trust you have in education here in Manatee County.
Julie Aranibar, an East County resident, represents District 3 on the Manatee County School Board.

A Review of the Inaugural Wild Woods Music and Arts Festival August 8th – 10th, 2014 Page Farm – Croydon, NH Written by Mitch Smith At one point over the course of the weekend, I was standing in the midst of a crowd of crazy people—a bearded man in a full-on bear costume was meandering about (only his glasses and suspiciously tight dance moves giving him away); so was another man in a somewhat less convincing Bengal tiger get-up; somewhere was a Santa who seemed to have either been dieting or just boogieing down at the North Pole's rowdy downtown club scene more than the Mrs. would approve of; there were bodies adorned in psychedelic color schemes, dready heads, long-hairs, and starry-eyed looks. I was in the midst of this crowd of dancing crazies, and Stop Tito Collective was at the head of this loony mass, crooning something like philosophy…

Wherever your festivities bring you today, I invite you to take a moment to consider the word 'freedom' and the role it has played in your life. Although the meaning of this expression has changed gigantically since it's authorized inception the experience, through time, has granted many a similar opportunity. Be it the right to vote, marry the same sex, medicate with the use of cannabis, identify yourself as an individual of your own creation or simply just speak your mind; this word creates POWER. Not to be confused with the occasional corruption we see in government today, but instead the ability WE THE PEOPLE are capable of achieving- conquering the American Dream, whatever that means to you.
I began studying Horticulture in Charleston, SC about two years ago because I was becoming more and more aware of the atrocities of the government regulating the FDA.

Job Title: Cook
By Daniel Daniels, Bibb County School District Communications Intern
During the week of June 3-7, 25 middle and high school girls participated in a MAGIC, or Mentoring a Girl in Construction, camp held at Southwest High School. Throughout the camp, the girls participated in hands-on construction activities aimed at equipping them with basic carpentry, welding, and electrical skills.
The MAGIC camp at Southwest is one of 25 camps being held across the nation this year. National Executive Director for MAGIC Inc., Renee Conner, said it is important to introduce girls to the construction industry.
The camp is fully funded through sponsorship donations from companies.
For the companies, "it's about the workforce development," Ms. Connor said. "For the schools, it's about getting more girls interested in their programming."
