The Tamil Nadu government's approach in matters concerning inter-State disputes has been that of showing respect to the judiciary, Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi said on Tuesday.
Responding to reports that the Kerala government had begun the survey in the Periyar Tiger Reserve for a new dam on Mullaperiyar, Mr. Karunanidhi, in a statement, said that those who believed in unity realised over several incidents in the past that his government had been adopting the position of preventing any clash between the States.
Those who were wedded to the rule of law and democracy should ponder over whether it would be proper for a constitutionally-elected government to enact a law and carry out a survey even on a matter that was sub-judice. They should also keep in mind whether it would be appropriate for the Kerala government, comprising a national party that had a long tradition, to carry on such ways.
If the Kerala government, with its utter disregard for constitutional norms, thought that Tamil Nadu should bow to its wishes, people would be forced to ponder which State was dominating India, Mr. Karunanidhi commented.
The Chief Minister recalled that after the Supreme Court gave an order for raising the water level of the Mullaperiyar dam from 136 ft to 142 ft, a law was enacted in Kerala to ensure non-implementation of the order. Even as Tamil Nadu's petition was pending before the Court, this fact was suppressed and the approval for the survey on the new dam was secured through Union Minister of State for Environment and Forests Jairam Ramesh. Tamil Nadu stoutly opposed the development by approaching the Supreme Court again. Under such circumstances, Kerala Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan described the opposition of Tamil Nadu as an attempt to make political gains.
Mr. Karunanidhi also pointed out the advice of K.V. Thomas, Union Minister of State for Agriculture from Kerala, that there should be no unnecessary conflicts between the States when both were inter-dependent.

The Chattanooga City Council agreed to buy a big blue rhinoceros on wheels Tuesday night.
The statue, "Blue Boy Pull Toy #1," has been on display for two years in Coolidge Park. The city plans to purchase it from local artist John Petrey for $32,500.
Some council members in the agenda session questioned the decision to buy the piece of public art.
Councilwoman Deborah Scott said the council should consider priorities in a recession.
"Some people in my district don't make that much a year. Actually, a lot of people," she said. "$32,000 is significant."
Local sculptor Isaac Duncan, a member of the public art committee, said the body has been mindful of the economic downturn and has refrained from making purchases in recent years. However, he said, buying this piece would be an investment in local business and an asset to the city.
"We are small businesses that do custom works," Duncan said of local artists. "Every time I get paid, I'm reinvesting it."
Scott, Jack Benson and Pam Ladd voted against the measure. Council members Manny Rico, Andraé McGary, Peter Murphy, Russell Gilbert and Carol Berz voted in favor of it.
In other business, the council voted to send texting while driving citations to City Court. The ordinance passed unanimously on second reading.
The council also is slated to vote next week on a proposed special exception to the city's light industrial zoning that would allow for ethanol facilities. Members briefly discussed the matter in agenda session, and County Commissioner Tim Boyd appeared before the full body to oppose the measure.
Staff writer Ansley Haman contributed reporting to this article.
"It is interesting that all the "must have" art spending includes buying pieces from the children of Allied Arts board members, and in the case of the blue Rino, the artist's wife is the leader of the Holmberg institute, a part of Allied Art."
Hmmmm....maybe we've found one of the sources of the Stench a'la Sewer found in the downtown section of Chattanooga
Waiting on the snooty rich people on Lookout Mountain to tell us we are backwards thinking for not supporting this public art taxpayer funded expenditure. Check that. We already have one over on Chattanoogan.com giving us a lecture. But hey. He's been to Paris, Rome, Vienna, and New York City you know. Geez freaking louise.
I think he's a good artist, and I'm glad Chattanooga is buying this piece. It represents observable equity. It's a far better investment that many of the other choices we've seen:
$328,000 for a website that still isn't up.
$125,000 and five county deputies fired to install Bob Corker's right hand man as county Chief of Staff.
Police take home car fiasco perpetrated by the Mayor.
Lack of accounting support for Parks and Rec, Outdoor Chattanooga, the Zoo and other departments that don't get Mayor Littlefield's cronies paid.
Deplorable neglect of the condition of the Wilcox tunnel.
$10 million dollar fictionalizing of the definition of "liabilities" in the City budget.
$10 million dollar shortfall by refusing to renew the City/County tax agreement. Losses to the Library, psychiatric services for the poor, housing assistance for the mentally ill, and drug treatment programs have cost us all.
Untold losses related to the Metro Payoff Club deals which exploit the division of city and county governments while excessive and selfish conduct of one clique seeks to exploit our area's tax dollars for personal political gain.
That clique's activities include the direct and unethical coordination of two government bodies to create a cabal that suppresses the citizens it is supposed to serve. We see the poor quality of their decisions in periodic political attacks in line with Republican national interests in ways that will likely provide money to stealthpacs for use during the upcoming Presidential elections.
Buying art is the only thing our local officials have gotten right in the last four years.
At least Mister Petri's Blue Rhino is observably true. He's far ahead of the abstract graft the Littlefield administration has brought us. Mister Petri's sculpture represents Owner's Equity.
Every person in this city making over $100,000 should probably get a class on those words: Owner's Equity. Look it up. It's what our citizens want for their money.
Our citizens like his sculpture, and we'd be honored to have it around for children to enjoy.
Good job, Petri. Congratulations.

Babbo: Is there a 'must order' dish?
- s
- scooter260 Apr 7, 2011 08:57 PM
Heading to Babbo for the first time on Saturday. Is there anything on the menu that is an absolute must try?
Also, is the tasting menu a no-brainer as well?
110 Waverly Pl, New York, NY 10011
I would advise you to order a la carte, and not the tasting.
More on dishes at Babbo:
110 Waverly Pl, New York, NY 10011
re: kathryn
I agree with kathryn I would do a la carte as well. The menu is very large and there are so many appealing things to try. I've only been once but I felt that ala carte provided better options. If you are lucky enough to visible multiple times then the tasting would be something to experience. However, if this is your first time I'd do ala carte to try to experience as much as possible.
Everything from what I have sampled was delicious.
Pastas- Pumpkin lune with sage and amarettis, chianti stained pappardelle with wild boar ragu, fettucine with pancetta
Mains- Hangar Steak, Duck and Pork chop, which was one of the best I've ever had.
Desserts are also incredible. Pistachio and chocolate semi freddo, whatever crostata they currently have since it changes with the season, Chocolate hazelnut cake.
I've been meaning to go back for awhile now, but of course its nearly impossible with their reservation system to get a reasonable time. Even booking out a month in advance can be a hassle. Some have gotten lucky just showing up at the stroke of 5:30 when they open and snagging a table near the bar, but not everyone wants to take that chance.
Other dishes I've heard raves about include the beef cheek ravioli, goose liver ravioli, branzino, veal chop, and the maple cheesecake.
Whatever you choose I doubt you would be disappointed. This is Batali's best restaurant.
re: kathryn
I would actually say the tasting menu deserves a look some times. They do occassional seasonal tasting menus that are pretty great.
About 4 years ago I went and I had the pasta tasting menu which was good but too much pasta and I wanted to die afterwards. I think even the dessert was pasta. However it did have probably my favorite dish I've ever had there and that was a black squid ink tagliolini.
Maybe 2 years ago I had a special tomato tasting menu, where all the dishes incorporated tomatoes, and that was actually really inventive and surprising.
I agree that the regular daily tasting menu is not really that special.
You won't be disappointed going a la carte though, so it's up to you.
Personally, the two raviolis - beef cheek and goose liver - and the goat cheese tortellini float my boat every time. But everyone seems to have their own favorite(s).
We were just there and our favorite dish of the night was the pineapple upside down cake - get it if it's still on the menu. Other winners for us were beef cheek ravioli and guancia ripiena (pork jowl stuffed with sausage). The chianti pappardelle with boar ragu was only so-so and the goose liver ravioli, though delicious, was a bit cloying with all that balsamic - I would have preferred it as an appetizer. The brasato al barolo was very disappointing.
re: Riverman500
Olive Oil Gelatto - I get that at every batalli place I go to.
re: tpigeon
I second the Olive Oil Gelatto recommendation. It doesn't sound like it would be an appealing desert but it really was amazing. I also enjoy the corn gelatto.
Thought I'd piggyback off this thread-- my husband and I got a gift card to Babbo so we are going in a couple weeks for the first time and I'm beyond excited! I've read a lot of the threads here on CH but I wanted to clarify something. We are probably going to order two pastas, two mains, and two desserts (no way we'll be able to compromise on dessert!). Ideally we'd like to share the two pastas. Should we tell our waiter that we plan on splitting the pastas? Would they plate it separately and would they serve it as part of the same course or make it two mini courses? Thanks!
110 Waverly Pl, New York, NY 10011
re: i_eat_a_lot_of_ice_cream
They can split both onto two plates for you. I've seen them do it before. If your server doesn't offer, definitely ask.
re: kathryn
Thank you!!! I can't wait.
re: i_eat_a_lot_of_ice_cream
Enjoy! We love Babbo. Contrary to what some people on this board may say, Babbo is very accommodating to personal requests. They will without a doubt split a whole order of pasta between the two of you.
110 Waverly Pl, New York, NY 10011
re: i_eat_a_lot_of_ice_cream
We're going Saturday-- confirmed my reservation today. Good thing I saved the confirmation # because they misspelled my name when they took the reservation.
Also, I thought you Babbo fans might know: where can we go watch the US Open afterwards in the neighborhood?
110 Waverly Pl, New York, NY 10011
re: i_eat_a_lot_of_ice_cream
Yep, that's the only thing I do there. Always go with a a friend with no reservation and sit at the bar. Create your own tasting menu from the a la carte menu and they split everything in 2 for you, makes the experience that much better, since you get to try more food...
re: i_eat_a_lot_of_ice_cream
My favorite dishes and I always order them are the squid ink pasta with rock shrimp and calabrese (this dish is not widely known but always get nods of approval from waiter when I order it) and you have to get the massive steak for 2, it is seriously one of the best steaks I've had (and I've been to pretty much every steakhouse in the city).

ARLINGTON — Nothing seemed to go right for the Texas Rangers on Saturday afternoon.Lance Berkman was ejected in the first inning, Adrian Beltre exited in the 10th inning with left hamstring tightness, and Robbie Ross suffered his first career loss.So it wasn't a surprise that the Royals scored the go-ahead run on a hit by pitch by Ross, and went on to a 4-1 victory in 10 innings over the Rangers."It's a tough one to swallow today," Ross said. "It happens to the best of us."Ross entered in the 10th with the game tied 1-1. He gave up consecutive singles to start the inning, with the runners advancing to second and third on the throw from the outfield. That forced him to issue an intentional walk to Billy Butler to load the bases.But Ross struck out the next two batters and had a 2-1 count against David Lough before plunking him with a fastball that was too far inside."After I got those two strikeouts with the bases loaded, I was sitting there thinking, 'This is the biggest one,'" Ross said. "And I couldn't get it."Still, a one-run game would have been within reach for the Rangers to overcome. But the next batter, George Kottaras, lined a two-run double to right to make it a three-run game.The Rangers went down in order against Royals closer Greg Holland in the home half of the 10th, leaving Ross with the loss and an ERA that jumped from a major league-best 0.37 to 1.42."You forget about it and try to move on," Ross said.The Rangers had their chances before Ross stepped on the mound, too.The Rangers had a 1-0 lead after a two-out rally in the fourth. Beltre got it started with a single to left, and moved to third on a bloop single down the right-field line by Nelson Cruz. That play, however, is when Beltre aggravated his left hamstring.Beltre is listed as day-to-day, and stayed in the game until the 10th inning. He scored the Rangers' lone run in the fourth on an RBI single by Mitch Moreland.The Royals answered with a run in the fifth. Lough reached on an infield single with one out, moved to third on a single by Elliot Johnson and scored on a passed ball with Alex Gordon at the plate.Rangers starter Nick Tepesch had an 0-2 count against Gordon and threw a slider down and in that got by catcher A.J. Pierzynski. Even though it was ruled a passed ball, Tepesch took some of the blame for it."I just yanked it," Tepesch said. "I got it a little too far down and in, and yanked it a little too far in there."That was the only run the Royals scored off Tepesch, as he scattered seven hits over 61/3 innings. And the Rangers had a chance to regain the lead in the bottom of the fifth.Leonys Martin reached on a one-out walk, stole second and advanced to third on a throwing error. But Royals starter James Shields got out of it by getting Elvis Andrus and David Murphy to ground out.Texas had another chance in the ninth after Joe Nathan worked a perfect top half. With two outs, Moreland walked and Pierzynski doubled on a pop-up to shallow left field that fell just beyond the outstretched gloves of three Royals.Moreland held up at third on the play, and Jurickson Profar popped up to end the inning."It was just one of those games," manager Ron Washington said. "They took advantage of their opportunity in the 10th." Berkman was tossed in the first inning for arguing a called third strike with home-plate umpire Todd Tichenor.It was the first ejection of the season for a Rangers player or coach."Any time you stand there and argue with the umpire, you run the risk of getting kicked out of the game," Berkman said. "But I didn't think I said or did anything that would warrant an ejection, but he obviously felt differently."Said Washington: "Yes, we miss that presence in the lineup. You never know what may have happened had he stayed in the ballgame."

As long as Dimir Keyrune is a creature when you cast a spell with cipher then it should remain on the keyrune as long as the keyrune remains in play. Obviously you would have to continuously turn your keyrune into a creature to get any use out of it.

Am I just misreading the whole situation?
Find a Conversation
|Mon, 09-17-2012 - 7:00pm
There is an older man that I work with and have become good friends with, that I am interested in dating.
We have been building our friendship for over a year now. We talk regularly outside of work via text or messaging, and talk to each other every day at work. Although he talks to me often, and I have always had the sense he is flirting a bit, he has never told me what he thinks of me...whether he finds me attractive or not. Not long ago, I got fed up and frustrated with not knowing/understanding his feelings and took it upon myself to ask him out. He accepted and we had our night out.
I had a good time, and knowing him as long as I have, there were no surprises and conversation was pretty flowing. The end of the evening though, prompted him to make a quick exit out of my car (I drove), and it just crushed my hopes that maybe we could have some small talk and finally a physical encounter....kissing or such.
I just don't understand. When he accepted my invitation out, I thought..he HAS to know that Im interested...I don't know what else to do other than blatantly telling him I am smitten. I'm a bit shy, and I have never asked a man out before, so me doing that was a big step for me outside of my comfort zone.
Now, I feel my self esteem is ravaged...and I feel maybe I should just stop thinking of the possibility at all. I know him well enough to know he can be shy...but we have always had a good time with one another. Does he just not like me? Should I just take everything off the table and look elsewhere? It's hard because we are friends...but if he isn't interested in more, I think I need to step away from this for awhile, so I can detach my feelings.
|Mon, 09-17-2012 - 9:37pm
By his reaction, I would think he's showing that he's not interested in dating you. It could be that he doesn't want to date someone he works with because if things go bad, then it makes work awkward, it could be the age difference or he just likes you as a friend. I have this friend that I got to know through my dance school. I've known him about 1 1/2 yrs now--a few times we have gone out in a group, but always when I or someone else asks him to come. He never initiates. I'm pretty sure he likes me as a friend and I'm probably one of his favorite dance partners, but I gave up the thought of him asking me out. He's had the opportunity & after asking him to go out socially, we had the opportunity to talk more, etc. I just don't want to waste any more time pining after something that's unlikely to happen.

Take 5 Brownie Bars
These Take 5 Brownie Bars are inspired by Take 5 candy bars and are pure salty/sweet/chocolatey heaven!
Do you remember back when I was making brownies and candy bars get married and have babies?
That was weird. And slightly disturbing.
I think maybe I have issues.
I blame the fact that when I was a kid, my mom was addicted to Dallas…and Dynasty…and Falcon Crest…and Knotts Landing. Seriously, lots of action going on there. They really needed DVRs or Nick and Nite to be invented because us poor kids had nothing to watch but women with big hair and shoulder pads smoochin it up with every man in town.
And now look at me!! I'm marrying off brownies…whipping up candy babies…proof that I am a child of the 80′s.
Anyways–the other day I was eating some of the candy that I was supposed to be saving for trick-or-treaters, and as I bit into a mini Take 5 Bar, it hit me.
Brownies and Take 5 bars needed to get married and have babies too!!
See? It's like a sickness with me. Totally Knotts Landings fault.
Just like with my Almond Joy Brownie Bites and my Twix Brownie Bars, I didn't use any actual candy bars in my recipe. Instead, I topped a brownie with ingredients from the candy bar and covered it all in chocolate.
And it was a fine idea, if I do say so myself. Yum Yum.
- Small pan of brownies, baked and cooled (I use Ghirardelli Mix because it's yummy and makes a small batch...I bake it in a 11x7 pan, which I love so much more than 8x8 because it gets them just the right thickness. If you prefer 8x8 pan, that will work fine too, your brownie layer will just be a bit thicker)
- 1 cup smooth peanut butter
- 2 cups salted pretzels, coarsely chopped (I used mini twists, but sticks would probably be fine too)
- 11 0z bag of caramel bits
- 2 Tablespoons cream or milk
- 1 cup salted peanuts, coarsely chopped
- 16 oz chocolate candy coating or almond bark (I like CandiQuik)
- Spread top of brownies with peanut butter all the way to the edges. Sprinkle on pretzels and press down gently to flatten. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat caramel bits and milk or cream stirring every 20 seconds or so until melted and smooth (should take about 2 minutes total). Stir peanuts into caramel, and pour evenly over brownies. Spread with a spatula if needed, but work quickly before it starts to set.
- Refrigerate brownies for a couple of hours. Once they're cold and firm, melt candy coating according to package directions. Cut brownies into bars/squares of desired size and dip the tops in the melted candy. Place on wax paper until chocolate is set.
See how easy? And such a yummy salty/sweet/chocolatey combo.
They're the perfect treat for that one week out of every four where I want to punch people and eat all the things including a chocolate chip/potato chip sandwich.
I think you know what I'm saying, girls.
If you want to see another candy/brownie hybrid, head over to my friend Shelly's site Cookies and Cups. She made some yummy Pretzel Rolo Blondie Bites!!

'This work is a dedication to the Wurundjeri Ngurungaeta (leader) William Barak, whose life highlights the many challenges that faced and continue to face Aboriginal people during and following colonisation. Like all true leaders Barak possessed a myriad of qualities and rose to the challenge being many things to many people – a cultural ambassador and advocator, a devoted father and an insightful and gifted artist. The multiple elements of this installation reflect on the different aspects of Barak's life, along with his community responsibilities and in turn the support he received, all of which are brought together by the use of light. Light and light-scapes can be seen as a means of representing living ideas, of mapping important cultural designs that signify the community in relation to the individual, and creating shared cultural spaces. Barak created a new space to live within; a space and an example which we continue to aspire to for future generations.' Jonathan Jones, 2010

FDA Warns Teva Pharmaceuticals About Improper Promotional Materials
Teva Pharmaceuticals received a Warning Letter from FDA informing the company that promotional materials as well as an associated webpage for Copaxone (glatiramer acetate injection) solution for subcutaneous injection were found to be false and misleading. Copaxone is indicated for reduction of the frequency of relapses in patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS). FDA found that the materials overstated the efficacy, presented unsubstantiated claims, broadened the indication for Copaxone, and omitted and minimized important risk information associated with the drug.
FDA objected to wording in the promotional materials indicating that Copaxone's safety record extended for 15–20 years, while the clinical-trials data in the FDA submission are only three years in duration. According to FDA, the open-label extension trials upon which the company based its claims are not sufficient to support those claims.
The promotional materials also included case studies from patients purportedly showing dramatic improvement in mobility and quality of life after taking Copaxone. According to the Warning Letter, the patient narratives misleadingly broaden the indication and overstate the efficacy of Copaxone by implying that Copaxone reverses patients' disability and enables them to lead an active lifestyle, return to work, accomplish great athletic feats, and "live the life they've dreamed." FDA says that while the patient narratives may be true reflections of those individual's experiences, Copaxone is not indicated for slowing, preventing, or reversing physical disability associated with MS.
FDA also found that risk information was minimized or omitted in the promotional materials. In addition, the materials implied that Copaxone was safer than other treatments because it was not associated with risks associated with other drugs, when, in fact, those risks were associated with Copaxone. In the letter, FDA says it is not aware of adequate and well-controlled head-to-head clinical trials demonstrating that Copaxone is safer, more effective than, or otherwise superior to, other RRMS therapies.
The Office of Prescription Drug Promotion requested that Teva discontinue dissemination of violative materials and submit a plan to disseminate truthful, nonmisleading, and complete corrective messages about the issues discussed in the letter to those who received the violative promotional materials.

The flood of stars expected to parade down the green carpet at the Latin Grammys has been washed out by a real thunderstorm in Las Vegas.
The fashion parade never quite got started as starlets in sparkling skin-tight gowns scampered indoors to the Mandalay Bay Convention Center on Thursday afternoon.
The festivities were moved into the pressroom to avoid real fashion disasters. But the excited fans in the stands kept screaming under umbrellas.
The carpet, colored green to represent Heineken as its sponsor, got soggy, but the 14th annual awards show would go on inside.
The awards show is being broadcast on Univision in the United States. The ceremony hosted by Mexican singer-actress Lucero will include 48 awards in 19 categories.

KNOXVILLE (AP) -- Phillip Fulmer isn't ready to do what Lloyd Carr did. The Tennessee coach wants to put the Volunteers on top one more time before he's through.
The 57-year-old Fulmer told The Associated Press that he wants to win another national championship.
He said he doesn't want to coach forever, but wants to coach for a good while and get back to the top of the mountain.
Such a goal proved elusive for Carr, who won the 1997 national title for Michigan and a handful of conference titles at a program steeped in tradition and high expectations. The 62-year-old Carr announced his retirement earlier this week after a season that included a loss to Appalachian State and a fourth straight defeat to rival Ohio State.
Like Carr, Fulmer's season has had some very rough spots. The Volunteers lost early to California and were routed by rivals Florida and Alabama.

Bethany, WV – Geneva's women's basketball watched W & J take over its game on Wednesday night with a huge second half. On Saturday afternoon, the Golden Tornadoes trailed by only nine against Bethany at halftime but watched the Bison score 12 of the first 14 points of the second half and cruise to an 81-60 victory. The loss was Geneva's third straight as the Golden Tornadoes fell to 8-10 for the season and dropped two games below .500 for the first time all season. Bethany won for the fifth time in six games and improved to 9-10 on the season.
Geneva College started well in the first half and led by as many as six points in the first stanza but was again unable to maintain that momentum. The Golden Tornadoes forced 15 first half turnovers by the Bison, but were not able to take advantage because of its poor shooting. Geneva managed just 11 first half field goals and shot just 28% from the field, including a 1-13 effort from three point range.
Bethany took control of the game in the second half by shooting 59% from the field and knocking down 4-6 shots from three-point range. Bethany was led by Kaitlyn McCormick's 20 points. The Golden Tornadoes got 12 points from Val Hamilton off the bench and 11 points from Beth DeLuca. Geneva was out rebounded in the contest by a 55-32 margin. Susannah Cartland led the Bison with ten rebounds in the game.
The Golden Tornadoes will look to put an end to its current losing streak on Wednesday night when they return home to face Saint Vincent College.

Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral

Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
Pretty awesome place. Much more there than I realized.
This tour was amazing!
We all loved the space centre. There was a variety of things to keep everyone interested. Good value.
We enjoyed our visit to The Kennedy Space Center. We wished we had more time to spend there!
It was surprising to see how enormous everything was. I felt the tour did not give enough photo opportunities off the bus.
We booked online in NZ and when we arrived at the Space Center, customer services were prompt and efficent. I cannot recommend doing the Center highly enough, it exceeded all of which I had hoped for, from taking you back to the 60's and the Apollo program to the Space Shuttle Atlantis. We missed the anniversary of Apollo 11 by 1 day and the launch of the new Delta rocket by 2 days, so check what's planned before you book.This is well worth experiencing, unfortunately we only had 1 day to do Kennedy and we missed out on going to the Astronaunts Hall of Fame which was further back along the road. Next time....
An amazing experience. This is a full day of jaw dropping sights and incredible information. It's a good idea to sit down and plan your day as soon as you get there from the guide that is given on entry, many of the events overlap (obviously so people don't all try to go to one) and you could miss out on something you want to see, we got caught out with the IMAX show times. Definitely my favourite Orlando trip.
One of the best tours I've been on! The humidity was bad the day we attended but it didn't stop us enjoying the many things on offer to see and do. We spent the whole day there and could really have done with another half day to see everything! Just a note thought, we thought 'dinner with an astronaut' meant that we had an astronaut on our table with us, but it was one astronaut in a whole room of diners talking about his experiences. Which was still good!
A once in a life time must see. A very informative tour both for adults and kids. The bus tour and guide was awesome.
Great Day, The History and Awe of what was and is being accomplished is a great lesson.
Plan to spend the whole day here to experience it all
great tour
It was excellent, all the Cape employees we encountered were very helpful. The displays were spectacular,
the shuttle take off ride was great. All in all, we had a great day, eassy to find aand easy to park.
This tour is well worthy the money! What a great slice of history especially for those who have been alive through the entire space race. The folks at Kennedy couldn't be more helpful. The tour was great and very informative. Getting the tickets through Viator was painless. I thoroughly enjoyed the visit. My only hint to others is that the tickets are good for three days and it is almost impossible to do justice to all the exhibits and venues in one day. I would have spent another day there if I had planned better.
This was a great tour. Lots of interesting information. If anything it was too much to see at once. It made me proud of our accomplishment as a nation. The films were well done. There was plenty of time to look at stuff on your own schedule

In this episode I continue the interview on Collaborative Problem Solving in the classroom with Dr. Ross Green, author of The Explosive Child. As I stated in the previous episode, there are a variety of classroom management techniques, all designed to help solve the issue of how to discipline children who are having behavioral problems. I think you'll find that Dr. Green's approach makes a lot of sense and it can be implemented in the classroom as well as at home. A fascinating interview. [adsenseyu2] Here again are the resources on this topic that I think you'll find … [Read more...]
Episode 48: Classroom Management – An Interview with Dr. Ross Green
Classroom management techniques - there are a lot of strategies for dealing with behavior problems in the classroom. It's time to add Collaborative Problem Solving to your toolkit. Learn an alternative to traditional classroom discipline techniques like timeout or sending the child to the principal. A recent Time magazine article entitled "How to Make Great Teachers" mentions that in a 2001 survey of teachers, 44% listed "student behavior problems" as the reason they left the profession. What can be done? [adsenseyu2] In this episode I interview Dr. Ross Green, author of The … [Read more...]
Episode 31: Lemon Slices and a New Face on Mars! Gestalt Principles at Work
The gestalt principles of perception - how do they work? How do they explain the fact that we sometimes perceive strange things, and how we can appreciate works of art? In this episode I take a close look at why people see a lot of strange things around them - including me. We'll see images on lemon slices, on Mars, and on building tops. Why do we perceive these things? [adsenseyu2] Resources on Gestalt Principles … [Read more...]
Episode 23: Do Teachers Have to be Actors in the Classroom Today?
We often heard it said that teachers have to be actors today in order to keep the attention of today's low attention span students. Well, in this episode I agree that teachers and actors do think alike in many ways - but not in the ways most people think. Join me as I explore how teachers and actors think alike in terms of objectives, obstacles, "raising the stakes", and getting feedback from other actors/students.

Sade Slave Song Lyrics
Last updated: 04/09/2013 10:35:56 AM
I see them gathered, see them on the shore
I turned to look once more
And he who knows me not
Takes me to the belly of darkness
The tears run swift and hard
And when they fall
Even, even the comfort of a stone
Would be a gain
There was a time when I thought
I would have to give up
But I'm thankful that I'm
Strong as I am and I'll
Try to do the best I can
1 - Tears will run swift
And tears will come that fall like rain
I pray that it's swift though
Tears will fall as cold as pain
I pray to the almighty
Let me not to him do
As he has unto me
Teach my beloved children
Who have been enslaved
To reach for the light continually
So many times I prayed
So many times I've prayed for you
Prayed for you
The tears run swift and hard and cold as pain
Even, even the comfort of a stone would be a gain
Had I not had the strength and wisdom of a warrior
I would have to give up
But I'm thankful that I'm
Strong as I am and I'll
Try to do the best I can
Repeat 1
I pray to the almighty
Let us not do as he has unto us
Teach my beloved children I've been a slave
But reach for the light continually
Wisdom is the flame
Wisdom is the brave warrior
Who will carry us into the sun
I pray that it's swift though
Tears will come that fall like rain
So many times, so many times
ABOLISH CHILD SLAVERY | Reviewer: Ethan Hunt | 4/9/13
Sade brings to your attention child slavery practiced widely in third world countries as well as the USA. The words speak of unthinkable cruelty and sadness. Nothing marvelous about enslavement of orphaned children 5-10 years who are routinely beaten, tortured, blinded, sold for sex, made to do hard labor, and etc. and who are totally alone punished for reasons they cannot understand. Their lives so hopeless and stressful "Even the comfort of a stone would be a gain." It's difficult for the mainstream who had wonderful childhoods to believe it occurs. I does though on a huge scale. Ending child slavery is Sade's cause. It should be yours too. So the next time you buy some clothes at Walmart's or Target look at the label and ask yourself how it came to be. Then remember "Wisdom is the flame; wisdom is the brave warrior who will carry us into the Sun."
how i would feel if i was a slave | Reviewer: mariah hughes | 3/9/13
i'm a slave i'm a slave set me free i hate being a slave it stinks being a slave we have to sit in pee dill with trow up it stinks having to leave my family i want a new life i don't like being auctioned off i can't live without my family.
Needed it for school | Reviewer: Cloe | 9/8/09
At school we were analyzing slave songs and all i needed was lyrics to one since i missed out the day it was being taught. Im glad that I could easily pull this one up, otherwise i would probably still be looking. but this one works perfectly.
Marvellous | Reviewer: Shenda | 5/22/07
I simply need a review of this song cause it is marvellous!

WWE's Layla was dancer for Miami Heat
June, 13, 2012
By Katie A. Raymond and James Wortman | WWE.com
Courtesy of WWEWWE's Layla was a Heat dancer during Miami's previous era of power.Before Layla was WWE Divas Champion, she was a Miami Heat Dancer right when the team acquired long-time member of Shaquille O'Neal. See what Layla has to say about her favorite player, what the atmosphere was like during the Heat's 2006 NBA Championship run and one priceless item she received from the franchise.
When you were with the Heat, who was your favorite player?
"Shaq was my favorite because of his personality. He brought so much attention to Miami, and he promised a ring and a championship to the Miami Heat and he did just that."
Can you describe what it was like being part of the NBA playoffs?
"It was electrifying because Miami hadn't won anything in a long time. We knew we were close to getting a ring, so everyone was really excited. It was a 'whiteout,' where everyone wore white in the arena. Honestly, the noise from there was probably one of the loudest things I've ever heard. People were anticipating every move. It was surreal because we finally knew we were going to win. I didn't get to take part in the parade, though, as I was headed right to the Diva Search."
So you went right from winning the NBA Championship to the Diva Search, which led you here?
"It literally happened within the span of a week. I still have my championship ring, which I'm very proud of. I keep it in its box. I hardly show it to anyone, it's really sacred to me."
To read the rest, check it out on WWE.com.

SUNY Downstate Medical Center
Alumni Association College of Medicine
Jill Ditchik
Executive Director
Alumni Association - College of Medicine
Greetings from the Executive Director
I welcome all alumni and other friends to peruse our website to see what the Alumni Association has done and continue to accomplish for over 130 years. I have been the Executive Director for 17 years. Over this time, I have seen the alumni become more active in supporting tuition scholarships, student research, Mentoring and Career Mentoring Programs, the White Coat Ceremony and other student initiatives. Providing both financial support and actively promoting a student friendly environment have always been the top priorities of the organization, including the Board and staff.
My background is in social work and I received my masters at Washington University. I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Binghamton University, which like SUNY Downstate is an exceptional state supported university. My 2 siblings also attended state universities including my bother Andy Ditchik, graduating from SUNY Downstate, Class of 1988. My family enjoys a long standing respect for and dedication to the SUNY schools.
I enjoy my role in providing important services for students and helping alumni reconnect with one another. This is especially meaningful as it is my brother's Alma mater. Also, I am continually inspired by the dedication and generosity of many our alumni who appreciate the invaluable training they received at Downstate and want to give back through their financial support and volunteering their time. The students are grateful and heartened when they learn they are receiving a tuition scholarship, research fellowship or another grant supported by generous alum dedicated to the student's well being. It means a lot to them. Many of our students want to help provide medical service to those with limited access. The Alumni Association supports the Student Run Brooklyn Free Clinic and Health Care in Developing Countries elective which are both popular among our students. Upon graduation many alumni continue providing medical services to underserved populations both here in the US and abroad.
Watch Ms. Ditchik's Welcome Video
I take pride in the outstanding Alumni Today magazine produced by our talented editor, Constance Shames, MD '63, who is also Past President. Our Alumni Reunions are festive occasions, including a tour of the school, an excellent scientific program and of course the gala dinner dance.
Join us for the upcoming gala reunion weekend (May 17-19, 2013) being held at the Brooklyn Marriott. Become involved in mentoring, help locate lost classmates, attend Board meetings and support the programs which help our medical students. Thank you and best wishes to you for a wonderful year ahead.
Sincerely yours,
Jill Ditchik

Help - Recommendation for Toronto - Downtown Below Bloor
Hi I am looking for a nice restaurant in downtown Toronto near the subway line - but below Bloor. I read some other posts but there are not many recommendations below Bloor or they are in the wrong price range. I need something with a main entree menu between $15 - $30, with more than one/two choices in the $15-$23 range. I would prefer something not too casual with a good wine selection. We are there to eat and enjoy good conversation, so the atmosphere should not be so noisy that we cannot hear each other speak.
I am new to this board and to Toronto. I really need some assistance as I do not know the restaurants at all.
Thank you!
There are tons of nice places south of Bloor. Honest. Specific to your request, try Superior near the Dundas stop. Walk through the Eaton Centre to the doors just south of Sears, cross the street, there you are. After all it's 10 below out. BTW they have an award-winning wine list.
As well, if you go a little further afield just about any place on Elm Street would fit.
Thank you so much for the reply Googs. I posted a similar post yesterday and wondered if there were few restaurants south of Bloor due to the lack of response - it seems to be an active board. I heard good things about the ChowHound boards for other cities.
Thank you again!
I've been to Bar Volo on Yonge, one block north of Wellesley a few times now based on recs from this board and really enjoyed it. Cozy atmosphere, rustic Italian fare, reasonably priced and very extensive beer menu. They do have wine too of course.
Very popular right now is Trevor on Wellington, just east of Yonge. Might be stretching your budget a little, but the menu is quite reasonably priced.
the challenge to your request is the combination of the price range and the criteria. I was actually thinking about your request for a quite a bit yesterday while at the gym, and I couldn't come up with anything that fit ALL your criteria. Here are few places to consider:
Jamie Kennedy Wine Bar -- good food, in your price range, good choice of wine, near cheap parking, about a 10 minute walk from the subway though and a bit noisy for an extended dinner, moderate setting.
Queen Mother - a wide range of food, lots (of the better options) in the lower range for your one friend, near cheap parking, near a subway stop, not a great wine selection, casual setting, depending on the table you get, can be too close per your criteria
Terroni - great food, lots in your price range, good wine choices, near cheap parking & subway, again, tables close together and casual setting
Biagio - good italian, upscale setting in your price range, quiet and comfy enough to sit for a long time, good wine choices, parking is a bit far and it's about 15 minutes from a subway stop
Pangea - upscale, tables well spaced, too pricey, close to good parking & subway
Izykaya - fun for a group, lots of space, prices well below your budget,design-oriented setting, not great wine choices, close to cheap parking and subway
I think if you're okay being a little lighter on the criteria of having the tables close you'll open up a lot more choices. You'll be able to hear each other and converse at all the places above, but you might be quite close to your neighbors. Also, you mentioned in your previous post that you wanted upscale, not casual . . . which is tough to do in your price range. Maybe letting the group know that it'll be nice-casual, not upscale will set expectations right.
p.s. okay, I thought of two more: Jump (a bit noisier but good wine, in your price range, near subway, expensive parking) and Biff's (near cheap parking, in your price range) both have good wine selections and a more upscale setting -- Biff's will be quieter than Jump.
Beerbistro almost fits the bill... except that they have a great beer selection rather than wine.
On King, near the Yonge line.
re: TorontoJo
I was just about to say the same thing.
re: pescatarian
Jinx, buy me a coke!
mirra, just so you know... i'd say it's more beneficial for you to comment to your own post and bump it back to the top than start another one. your previous one had some more details that you ended up adding about the area you'd prefer to be. and honestly... i'd say 80% of the restaurants mentioned on this board are south of bloor.
anyhow.. bar volo, is great for beer but i've had a very dull time with the food and absolutely terrible times with the service. if you're into craft beers at all this would be a great place. the owners son (i believe..) is interested in wine as well and has recently put out a wine list with some great choices, but it is very limited although well priced. it's also pretty casual, so i don't think this falls within what you want.
trevor was ok in my opinion, which may have been hyped up by all the rave reviews. i found the dining room menu to be priced rather high (up to $32) but the bar menu was rather reasonable. the space is great looking, the music can be a bit loud but still amicable for talking and a good wine list. kobe beef burgers were nice (my table of 5 ordered a trio and we ended up getting one each) but i thought the tuna tartare was disgustingly over-mayoed. sorbet dessert was overpiced for the portioning and i suspect came from solferino overhead.
coca on queen st west has a dining room above that offers mains just into the mid 20s range and i thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience there. unfortunately they've raised their tapas prices and so i'm not sure what has happened on the dining room side. LOVED the truffled quails egg and i hear the wings are great. beware of the upsell though... they sort of barrage you with questions about breads (cocas), dips, meats, etc the second your tush hits a seat. found the food to overall be tasty and well cooked. good wine list although wasn't entirely impressed with the cava. finishing off with the port was a fantastic idea. it might turn a little loungey clubbish upstairs though after a certain hour.
wish gets good reviews and is in the neighbourhood of bar volo, you may want to give that a search to see what people have said.
Hi Mirra - welcome to Toronto,
The reason that you didn't get too many responses is that there aren't many places that fit your description. Given the rents, you'll mainly find places that have a fast turnover or relatively higher prices if you can linger.
I'm not a Superior fan - high prices for what you get and the award-winning wine list award comes automatically if you pay the fee and don't mispell too many of the wines (nobody actually checks that the wines even exist - you just mail in your menu/winelist).
Haven't tried Bar Volo; and hate the basement location of Trevor - regardless of food quality.
My suggestion would be Linda's - a Thai restaurant near Yonge and Dundas - their wine list is excellent by Thai standards but I can't really say it's extensive.
A 10 minute walk from Queen & Yonge is George Restaurant (Queen East) which also easily meets your other criteria.
Another area is Queen St west of Osgoode station - again several choices. especially Indian restaurants.
If you are hitting the subway, then, for the same transportation cost, you could equally go to any of the many places between Rosedale and Summerhill (on Yonge) or between Davisville and Eglinton (even several blocks north of Eglinton) - there are dozens of choices there.
Or, similarly, along the Bloor Danforth line (especially Bloor West Village). Again multiple choices. All of these have lower rents and hence better quality/price ratios.
estufarian -- do you really think George meets the criteria of not-too-expensive mains? I seem to recall spending about $80 - $100/person there on food.
Last time I was there we had several glasses of wine (equivalent to over a bottle of wine) and the bill for two - all in - was about $175. I've only been to Superior for lunch and it came to $100 for two with less wine - so I'd say comparable to Superior.
However, I agree it's at the upper end. So "easily meets" is probably not accurate.
re: estufarian
Hey wow, I just checked George's menu:
And you're right, there are mains in the range that the OP asked for. I guess we had 4 or 5 courses, which added up pretty quickly!
So sorry for questioning you, as I have come to trust your posts over the years!
And the wine list at George was spectacular when Kim was the sommelier... I can't imagine that it's changed too much since she left.
I love Focaccia on Hayden St 1 block South of Bloor off of Yonge...small intimate space..delicious food ...good prices...make a reservation...Miranda
I second the rec for George. I would also add Habitat on Queen St W - interesting food, great atmosphere and decent prices (depends what you choose of course).
Having been prompted to read the original posting, I stand by my Superior rec. It isn't a scenester place, granted, but it fits the criteria. 2 Green P's in easy walking distance as well.
If you like Thai food you could try Linda, the more upscale sister restaurant to the Salad King: http://www.toronto.com/restaurants/li... There's also Beer Bistro just east of Yonge at King: http://www.toronto.com/restaurants/li... I've never been myself but friends who work in the area have given it good reviews. There's also the new(er) Keg at York - the food is the same as every other Keg but the decor is much more modern and it's typically very busy. The bar is pretty loud but the restaurant area would be quieter.

Among the week's unusual viewing pleasures are scenes from an unfinished Marilyn Monroe movie and a rarely seen Bette Davis film. But the really heartening anomaly is the large number of shows featuring black entertainers. As someone who watches a lot of television, I find nothing more distressing than the misrepresentative proportion of lily-white faces the tube turns to us.

Earlier this month, Harrison Ford was injured while filming Star Wars: Episode VII.
Follow-up reports claimed that Ford broke his ankle after tripping over the door of the Millenium Falcon (Coolest. Injury, Ever.), but would be back on his feet in no time.
Now it's looking like "no time" means six months and Ford's injury could mean the worst possible news imaginable for Star Wars fans: a delayed release date for Episode VII!!!
Turns out Ford broke his leg not his ankle, and sources on set say that Han Solo was to be the lead role in the movie, which means that filming may have to be delayed for half a year, unless the script is massively rewritten.
