I took a three day trip to Louisville in June 2009 to attend a wedding. Fodorites gave me lots of helpful advice before I left and I'm sorry that I haven't been back sooner to update everyone on the trip. Better late than never... here's my trip report. Hopefully it will help someone else who is headed there.
We flew out early from Los Angeles, changed planes in Dallas and (after a delay) arrived in Louisville around 7:00pm. Upon getting off the plane, I was amused to see tornado shelters in the airport terminal, a true novelty for a west coaster. I had to open the door and check them out.
We took a cab from the airport to downtown Louisville (a bargain at $18) and checked in at 21C Museum Hotel. Wow, I loved this hotel. It's the coolest little boutique hotel I've ever encountered. The museum in the lobby is filled with interesting contemporary art, the rooms are huge and nicely decorated, we had views out enormous windows to the Ohio River and service was fantastic all around. There's no question that this is THE place to stay in Louisville at the moment.
We hopped in a cab and went to North End Cafe, in the trendy Louisville neighborhood charmingly called Butchertown, to attend the rehearsal dinner for the wedding we'd come to town to attend. This restaurant is a favorite of the bride and groom, and I can see why. The space was inviting and the food was delicious. The staff were very friendly and we had a great time. Afterward, we all headed back to 21C to have a drink at the bar downstairs, Proof. This is definitely a hot spot in Louisville, with lots of young, trendy folks enjoying designer cocktails in the artistically designed bar.
On Saturday morning we headed out to Churchill Downs with some friends and decided to try out the local bus system. It was very convenient to get out to Churchill Downs via the bus, and fun to see a bit of the city along the way. Less fun... the weather. It was about 95 degrees with lots of humidity. At Churchill Downs, we walked through the museum, took a quick tour that included watching the first race of the day, and then stayed on for a couple of hours to watch three more races. Didn't win any money, but had a great time. Some thoughts on Churchill Downs:
* The museum staff are very, very nice. The college-aged kid who led our tour clearly loves his job and was eager to answer questions.
* The museum is nicely laid out and has all sorts of interesting exhibits and information. Even people who aren't particularly into horse racing (like myself) will find something here that intrigues them. I learned quite a bit while strolling through, and that's always a good thing.
* The basic tour offered by the museum was totally not worth it. All we did was walk out to the track, hear a few minutes of history about the grounds and then watch the first race of the day. We should have just saved our money and gone to the track on our own. The tour to take is the one that goes out to the barns, but it was sold out when we arrived. If you know when you're coming, book that tour in advance.
* There are plenty of food and drink options inside the racetrack. Everyone in our group found something they liked.
* If you actually want to win money, learn a little something about horse racing before you arrive and pick up the little newspaper that has information about the horses. My super scientific method of choosing a horse based on the uniqueness of its name was not the way to go. Shocking, I know.
That evening we attended our friends' wedding at Yew Dell Gardens, just outside Louisville. Wow, this is a gorgeous spot. I believe the gardens are open to the public and if you're interested in such things, this is a lovely and serene place to enjoy the local flora and fauna. It was a spectacular setting for a wedding.
After a post-wedding brunch with the wedding party at 21C, we took a walk along the Louisville waterfront and explored a bit of downtown. We walked down Main Street to the waterfront area, where we looked out over the river and saw the Belle of Louisville, a restored steamboat that is a popular tourist attraction. I believe you can take river cruises and such on the Belle. We admired all the public sculpture, walked through Fourth Street Live, a popular but charmless retail district and checked out the stately city hall. There were a lot of places we would have liked to go, such as the Muhammad Ali Center and the Louisville Glassworks, both of which are walking distance from 21C. Sadly, we were on a tight schedule due to wedding-related activities and couldn't see everything that we wanted to. Also, we were surprised to find how many things were closed on Sunday.
Later, we went out to visit our friends in the Louisville neighborhood called The Highlands. While there, we went on a long, scenic walk around the neighborhood (made possible due to the cooling weather). This area is filled with huge, beautiful homes set on tree-lined streets, large parks, and a main boulevard lined with coffee shops, cafes, bookstores, etc. We stopped at Heine Brothers' Coffee, which has excellent coffee and is a nice place to sit and relax. It's a great part of Louisville and one where I would have liked to spend more time. Eventually, we headed back to 21C to get ready for dinner. We took a cab back to Butchertown and ate at a restaurant called Varanese, which we were very excited about. While the setting and service were fantastic, neither of us liked our food, which was disappointing. We ended the evening with a walk through Butchertown.
We had a mid-day flight and not much time to see things this day. In the morning, we took a cab out to the Cherokee Park neighborhood and toured Whitehall, a historic home (part of Louisville's historic homes collection). It was really beautiful, and it being a Monday we had the place to ourselves. If you're at all interested in architecture or local history, check out the historic homes in the area. I loved Whitehall and was so glad we went there. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and helped bring the home to life for us.
Overall, it was a really fun trip and I was glad to be able to spend some time here. Some final thoughts about Louisville:
* The city is absolutely filled with public art. There are sculptures and statues just about everywhere you look. Louisville is also home to a ton of art galleries, large and small. I'm not sure I've ever seen an American city so obviously dedicated to making its public space a showcase for art. It was really wonderful to experience.
* If you haven't been to the South in the summer, I'm here to tell you that it is HOT. And buggy. I brought home some lovely mosquito bites as souvenirs. However, when it cools off and a breeze blows from the Ohio River, Louisville is such a wonderful place to spend a day outside in the sun.
* Downtown Louisville is clean, attractive and clearly growing by leaps and bounds. So why are there no people there? All weekend I walked around Louisville and the streets were completely deserted. When the work week arrived, the population downtown increased, but it was still not what you'd expect from a big city like this. It seems that everyone lives in outlying suburbs, not in the actual downtown area, and thus the weekends make it a bit of a ghost town.
* Cabs are cheap. The bus system is effective and easy to use. Downtown is quite walkable. I spent four days in Louisville without a car and really never felt that I needed one.
* When in Louisville, you should absolutely stay at 21C, a charming and memorable boutique hotel located right in the heart of downtown. I absolutely loved it and can't recommend it enough.

I just wanted to add that, at Churchill, you pay for the Museum, not the basic tour. The basic tour is included with the Museum. If you had to PAY for the TOUR, that tour is not worth it. The Museum is & it is the Museum that is not free.

Glad to hear you enjoyed yourself. Personally, I think Louisville is an undiscovered gem. If you go again, try the Mayan Cafe on Market St. Outstanding.

Love to hear the review of Louisville. I've lived here for more than 20 years and love it. I've been to all of the places you talked about and agree with pretty much everything you said. It is strange that downtown can be a ghost town. The city is doing everything it can to draw people downtown, but I really don't go unless there's a baseball game, concert, or event of some sort. While there is great dining downtown, there's also lots of great dining out in the suburbs - and I'm not talking chains - I'm talking local, independent places to eat that are wonderful. It's a strange thing about Louisville and I can't figure it out myself!

I live in Louisville, too, and I think the problem is that there is no retail shopping downtown. The OP mentioned Louisville Live--that spot used to be the heart of Louisville. Now there isn't anything but loud entertainment. There is no place for people who work downtown to buy clothes, much less a sheet or a towel. Several years ago, I used to do all my Christmas shopping on my lunch hours, one or two gifts a day, and keep an eye out for clothing, too.
In a misguided attempt to draw suburban shoppers back into town in the late 60s/early 70s, the city fathers closed Fourth Street (the main drag) to traffic and made an enclosed galleria. That didn't fly, and now the people who are buying the condos and loft apartments along the river don't even have a grocery store close by, much less shops.
We are doing a lot of things right, including building a big new sports arena on Main Street, but I don't see how we can have a vibrant downtown unless someone gets a vision of something like Chicago's Magnificent Mile. People go for the theater, the museums, the restaurants, and the special events like Thunder over Louisville during Derby Week; but there's not much regular stuff to draw the locals.
In any event, I am glad to read such an upbeat trip report and hope you come back and spend more time. We do have a nice city to visit.

You basically supplied an itinerary for me.....I am headed to Louisville on a Friday afternoon from California, and will be there until Monday afternoon! Thanks for all of the tips!

Sounded great. DH's aunt and uncle lived in Highlands and we had many nice visits to this wonderful town over the years. Glad you had a good time.
FYI for your next trip and tenthumbs, the Speed Museum is a wonderful art gallery.

To the folks in Louisville, be patient. We have had similar problems here in Charlotte. But once the people move in, the grocery stores & such will arrive. I used to reside in Louisville & would love to see the downtown area revitalized...properly.

Sorry you missed Glassworks--an amazing place to tour! Glad you had a nice stay.
If you come again, be sure and have a meal at Lynn's Paradise Cafe...breakfast, lunch, or dinner are all wonderful.

"Desperate Housewives": Meet the New Neighbors
"Desperate Housewives": Meet the New Neighbors
In true "Desperate Housewives" fashion, the newest family to move to Wisteria Lane is dripping with mystery. Actors Nathan Fillion, Dana Delaney and Lyndsy Fonseca recently chatted with TV Guide about their family, one of two new households on the lane this year. Here's what we learned about their characters:
- Katherine Mayfair, Delaney's character, used to live on Wisteria Lane with her daughter, Dylan (Fonseca), and an aunt, but she moved away 12 years ago under — you guessed it — mysterious circumstances. When she returns, she's with her new husband, Adam (Fillion), a gynecologist with an "unsavory" secret in his professional life.
- A perfectionist and control freak, Katherine is a rival to Bree; apparently there will literally be a throwdown over lemon meringue pie.
- Dylan was once friends with Julie Mayer, but she remembers nothing from that time, and the memory loss leads people to suspect something dark in her past; as a teenager, she's kept on a strict schedule, "almost like a dog."
"Desperate Housewives" is also the latest show to get the music video treatment from ABC, with glam scenes of the original five housewives set to the new Jennifer Lopez song "Mile in These Shoes." To watch the video, as well as a behind-the-scenes segment with some of Delaney's first scenes,

Scandalous is closing today after a mere 29 performances! I bet Carolee never thought she'd outdo Lestat's flop total, but she must have seen the writing on the wall long ago.
Anyone else going? It's not quite pure camp because there's too much boring filler, and unfortunately the cut that hideous car in act one, but it should still be a nice afternoon for a laugh and something to talk about with the friends for years to come!

The always impressive, up and coming MC, YC The Cynic is back today with something new for our viewing pleasures. The wordsmith decided to let loose of the video for his track "Murphy's Law" a hard hitting, thought provoking number that finds The Cynic showing off his lyrical talents.
The track is driven by a dark, menacing beat full of interesting melodic elements and some hard hitting, snapping drums that makes a nice home for YC and his deep, thoughtful bars to lay. He effortlessly rides the beat while the video finds the wordsmith bringing his bars to life. This shit is nothing less than incredible, don't ever sleep on YC, check out the video after the jump and let us know what you think down below.

There's an epidemic going on, and Karen Bryant, the recycling coordinator for Pasco County schools, is pretty excited about it. Students and school employees throughout the county have caught the recycling bug. Many of them, prodded by the district's Resource Recovery Program and student organizations such as elementary school Earth Patrols, are remembering to turn off the lights when no one is in the classroom and make sure that aluminum can goes into the recycling bin instead of the trash can.
The district has earned its share of recycling kudos. Bryant has a wall filled with local, state and national awards to prove it.
"It's easy to apply for an award when your schools are doing the work," said Bryant, who on Friday will accept another award at "Pasco Schools Recycling Day" at Tropicana Field. The district is one of six organizations being honored this season by the Tampa Bay Rays as part of their "Teaming Up for the Environment Initiative."
Recycling can pay off in other ways, too. Sand Pine Elementary School opened its newspaper recycling bin to the public and earned $7,000 last year.
"A lot of our schools are focusing on recycling and energy and water conservation," Bryant said. "The district has a 5 percent (energy) reduction goal, and the schools are trying to meet it."
Add to that, said Bryant, the 2008 Energy Bill signed by Gov. Charlie Crist, which sets a statewide recycling goal of 75 percent by 2020.
"I'm real excited about that," Bryant said. "I think we're doing our part."
How to help
To do your part, check out the school district's recycling programs below:
Battery recycling contest, co-sponsored by the Pasco County School District and Pasco County Utilities, encourages students and school employees to recycle household batteries (AA, AAA, C, D and 9-volt only.) The top 10 schools split whatever prize money has been donated by local businesses, typically about $2,000 total, Bryant said.
Note: The schools CANNOT accept batteries from businesses or the community. Check with individual schools for participation. For information on other battery collection sites, call Farouk El-Shamy, Pasco County environmental manager, at (727) 847-8041.

Schools and local businesses can sign up for the program by calling (727) 847-8041. Creation Station: Operated for 15 years by the Pasco County School District, this reuse center offers school employees and nonprofit groups up to 75 pounds of reusable items for school projects. Creation Station is open from 2 to 5:30 p.m. the third Thursday of the month starting Sept. 4 (closed in January). Donations of reusable items such as arts and crafts supplies, cardboard, ceramics, office supplies, food jars, fabric, etc., are welcome.

President Hugo Chavez on Sunday praised a top general who suggested the military would not accept an opposition victory in Venezuela's next presidential election, further angering critics who argue the officer demonstrated disrespect for democracy.
In a newspaper column, Chavez referred to Gen. Henry Rangel Silva as "a revolutionary soldier," and said that he planned to promote him to general in chief of defense for "his merits and virtues."
The self-proclaimed socialist leader harshly criticized Jose Miguel Insulza, secretary-general of the Organization of American States, for calling Rangel Silva's remarks "unacceptable," and accused the OAS chief of meddling in Venezuela's domestic affairs.
"His unfortunate statements are nothing more than disrespect for our sovereignty," Chavez wrote.
In a recent interview, the Ultimas Noticias newspaper quoted Rangel Silva as saying that Venezuela's military would not accept an opposition victory in the country's 2012 presidential election. The general also told the newspaper that military officers support Chavez's drive toward socialism.
Rangel Silva's comments have raised the ire of opposition politicians, who have long accused Chavez of imbuing soldiers with his socialist ideology in violation of constitutional norms establishing the apolitical nature of Venezuela's military.
Government adversaries argue Chavez is dangerously dividing Venezuela's military by demanding that military personnel embrace his socialist policies, noting that the former paratroop commander has forced soldiers to salute their superiors by shouting: "Socialist homeland or death! We will be victorious!"
Critics fear Rangel Silva and other top-ranking military officers could reject an opposition triumph at the polls in 2012 and keep Chavez in office, effectively turning one of South America's oldest democracies into a dictatorship.
During his Sunday television and radio program, "Hello President," Chavez said that he planned to promote the general on Tuesday.
"I will have the honor and pleasure of promoting ... Gen. Rangel Silva while the anti-patriotic opposition lashes out at patriotic generals like him," he said. "What they attempt to do is create divisions within the armed forces."
Chavez denies that he plans to retain power by force. He promises to defeat any opposition candidate by winning more votes.
Teodoro Petkoff, editor of the opposition-friendly newspaper Tal Cual, alleged that Chavez is attempting to prepare the military to ignore an election defeat.
Petkoff - one of the president's most outspoken critics - predicted that Chavez would lose the next election and warned that violent upheaval could occur if the military were to ignore the result.
"It's a brainwashing venture, making officials get accustomed to think their job is not to recognize the election results," Petkoff said Sunday during a program broadcast on the opposition-leaning Globovision television channel. "When the president of the republic is defeated, the armed forces will have to decide if it's convenient to prop up the head of state amid an ocean of blood."
Venezuela's coalition of opposition parties has agreed to field a single candidate in 2012, but it has not decided on when or how to choose the contender.

I'd been trying to write a cookbook. One day, just as I was on a roll, my fingers dancing on the keyboard, thoughts pouring from my head, I heard a thumping at the door. "Not now," I muttered as I walked toward the demanding knock and opened the door.
Sweat made a perfect string of beads on her large oval face. Dressed like a businesswoman or a mother going to Sunday services, this stranger with very poor English and a wide smile asked, "Speek-e-espanich?"
Rosa is from the state of Hidalgo, just north of Mexico City. Faced with a divorce, middle age and no way to survive, she fled her beloved land to find refuge in America, namely Mesa, Arizona.
Every day, this elegantly plump woman prepares dozens of delicious red-chile pork tamales to sell to her already-established customers. Determined to survive, and without knowing a word of English, she rides a bus from Mesa to the bohemian neighborhood of old Tempe.
Carrying plastic grocery bags filled with her goods, she cold-calls door-to-door using her best sign language to communicate, tempting those willing to embark on an adventure of the palate.
I gathered every last dollar, plus change, to purchase two dozen of her magical tamales.
But there is a price to be paid if you knock on the door of a chef aspiring to write a cookbook. We spent the next two hours drinking iced tea, eating her goods and talking about food made in the old tradition.
As I watched her walk away, I couldn't help but compare her to her Mexican counterparts street vendors carrying out one of Mexico's biggest customs, eating and selling on the streets, la calle.
If you like this story, consider signing up for our email newsletters.

Many times I have been approached in the Food City Supermarket parking lot by these street tamale vendors. "Psst, quiere comprar tamales calientitos?" Would you like to buy some warm tamales, they ask with a certain secretiveness, looking over their shoulders while clutching small brown paper bags.
Men and women alike knock on doors in local neighborhoods and approach customers at supermarkets. I find it hard to say no to anyone selling tamales anyplace, anywhere.
I cannot help but thank my lucky stars that I live in Arizona, a state filled with so many cultural and culinary gems from Mexico. I really doubt you will find a Rosa selling her tamales door-to-door in Vermont, asking, "Speek-e-espanich?"

In a PR crisis, first impressions form quickly, according a new report by Toronto-based communications firm StrategyCorp. And Canadians weren't impressed with the responses of organizations embroiled in controversy last year.
A survey of 2,600 Canadians reveals that when major things go wrong for business or government, Canadians form opinions very quickly: 61% within one day and 92% within one week. And once an opinion is formed, 62% said their opinion stays the same or doesn't change at all, even after hearing the organization respond to the crisis. Fewer than four in 10 respondents said their opinion would probably change as time goes on.
"When organizations react to negative news, they only have one opportunity to get the response right, and have an extremely short timeframe in which to respond," said John Perenack, communications group head at StrategyCorp, in a release.
The StrategyCorp Reputation Report looked at the biggest PR crises from 2013, and assessed how an organization's response influenced public opinion of the organization as a whole. The examples included:
·The Ontario government's decision to cancel two natural gas-powered plants at a cost of $1 billion
·Toronto Mayor Rob Ford's admission to smoking crack cocaine
·The Canadian Senate expenses controversy
·The Quebec government's proposed 'Charter of Values'
·BlackBerry's financial losses, employee layoffs and CEO resignation
·Lululemon's yoga pants recall and comments from the CEO that suggested women's large thighs were to blame for quality issues
"What stood out clearly in this report was that each of these controversies had a definite and measurable negative impact on the reputation of each organization," said Perenack.
The organizations that suffered the biggest negative impact on their reputations were the Canadian Senate (69% negative opinion), the Ontario government (68%), City of Toronto (67%), Quebec government (64%), BlackBerry (58%) and Lululemon (51%).
When organizations did respond to a crisis, Canadians gave them low remarks on their response: Ontario government (64% said it did a poor job responding); Quebec government (61%); Senate (61%), City of Toronto (59%); Lululemon (52%) and BlackBerry (51%).
"In every case, the findings show that many more people thought the organizations did a poor job of responding to the issue, compared to those who say the issue was handled well," said Perenack. "These were complex situations, some completely unforeseen, and would have been undoubtedly difficult to manage under the best of circumstances. The importance of preparation is crucial to avoiding being caught by surprise on the day an issue hits, and to gain control before it spirals into crisis."
The survey was conducted by Innovative Research Group.

Pay attention! This is not just about our treehouse. The issues that we present to the courts are also of concern to many citizens, property owners and businesses. An American dream, our Robinson Crusoe like beach treehouse is still at risk of demolition.
The District Court denied our appeal, thus upheld the Circuit Court's ruling, sending us back to the City. However the court's decision is not final. We have filed a motion for rehearing, seeking ground for review by the Florida Supreme Court. The DCA can change its prior ruling, issue an opinion or reject our request. In its response to our filing, as expected, the City have asked the court to deny our request.
The issues that we asked the courts to reconsider are:
1. Did the Court imply that City codes can preempt State laws and local government can override and prevent Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) authority?
City codes prohibit the use of 50 feet of privately owned beachfront land for any construction other than seawalls, dune walkovers and similar structures solely for the protection of existing buildings, while State laws allow for construction of many other types of structures within this 50 feet for enjoyment and other purposes. Our beach treehouse is within this 50 feet prohibition by the City. This means the loss of use of 50 feet of land for many beachfront property owners.
If you have a standard 100 feet deep beachfront lot, you might not be able to build much of anything when taking into account side setback, front setback, and the loss due to beach nourishment program if the property crosses the erosion control line. In our opinion, the 50 feet prohibition serves no purpose other than an insidious taking of private property rights via local zoning, restrictions and prohibition that the City claims they have the right to do.
Who told you that in the United States, your property are protected and safe from government? Who said ALL shall be treated equally?
In addition, per state law, some structures could be exempted from permitting requirements. But even if the state agency would issue a letter of exemption or state permit for our tree hut or treehouse, they can't do it or it is no good. Why? Because the city objects and insists that their local codes prevail.

text: A subcommittee of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce passed legislation [1] Wednesday that would prohibit the promotion of any post-season National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I contest "as a national championship game unless such game is the culmination of a fair and equitable playoff system." The bill, introduced by Republican Rep. Joe Barton of Texas, passed the Subcommittee on Commerce, Trade and Consumer Protection by a voice vote. According to an Associated Press account [2] of the vote, only Democratic Rep. John Barrow of Georgia dissented. The Football Championship Subdivision (formerly Division I-AA) crowns its champion following a 16-team playoff [3], whose title game is next week, putting it in compliance with the legislation. The Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I-A), however, crowns its champion via the Bowl Championship Series [4], an arrangement among the wealthier conferences in the subdivision, whick picks two teams to play in a title game. Republican Sen. Orin Hatch brought Congressional attention to the controversy surrounding the BCS this summer, when he pushed the Justice Department to investigate it for antitrust violations [5] at a packed Senate subcommittee hearing. To date, no action has been taken on Hatch's request. Of the latest attempt by Congress to force college football to accept a playoff system, Bill Hancock, executive director of the BCS, did not mince words, saying in a statement before the House subcommittee vote, "With all the serious matters facing our country, surely Congress has more important issues than spending taxpayer money to dictate how college football is played."

The combination of American Airlines and US Airways creates the world's largest airline and ends a decade of intense industry consolidation — at least for a while.
They are the last of the nation's big legacy carriers to merge, a trend accelerated in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks and soaring jet fuel costs.
Since 2001, five major U.S. airline mergers have created an industry dominated by four carriers that will control more than 70 percent of the market, according to a report by the American Antitrust Institute and the Business Travel Coalition.
Consolidation often helps companies cut costs, increase efficiencies, expand their routes and gain market share, but fewer airlines means fewer consumer choices, higher airfares and service hiccups. On a broader plane, some industry experts say a healthier industry that allows for investments in people, new planes and technology is good for everyone.
"Certainly, consumers benefit from having a healthy industry," New York-based airline consultant Bob Harrell said. "They may not think that, but the industry has been limping along now for 10 years. Most experts and airline execs feel consolidation is a way to address that."
The airline industry has lost billions of dollars in the last decade or so, but has been in the black since 2010, thanks to consolidation, capacity cuts, fuller planes and higher airfares. Last year, U.S. carriers posted operating profits of $6.9 billion, compared with operating losses of $2.6 billion in 2008.
US Airways chief executive Doug Parker began pushing for a merger with American soon after the Fort Worth-based airline and its parent, AMR Corp., filed for bankruptcy in November 2011.
A long-time proponent of industry consolidation, Parker wanted US Airways to merge to compete against larger airlines — mainly United Airlines and Delta Air Lines Inc., both of which grew through mergers of their own in the last five years.
American hopes bankruptcy and consolidation will lower its labor and operating costs, which are among the highest in the industry. AMR has lost more than $15 billion since 2001 and posted a net loss of $1.88 billion last year.
US Airways' merger with American is expected to generate more than $1 billion in net synergies from combining networks, fleets and other operations.
"The key success factor is gaining more mass — they're able to build scope and skill economies that wouldn't exist otherwise," said airline analyst Vaughn Cordle. He advocated an American-US Airways merger in reports starting in late 2010.
Sometimes reaching those financial goals takes longer than expected, however. United Continental still is struggling more than two years after its merger: It lost $723 million in 2012 vs. an $840 million profit in 2011.
Charlie Leocha, director of the Consumer Travel Alliance, thinks the airline industry is reaching the dangerous level of too-big-to-fail — a phrase commonly used with big banks whose failure could disrupt the nation's economy. With the industry consolidated to four giant U.S. airlines, he said, "the specter of massive airlines that affect too much of our nation's economy will come into focus."
Culture clash?
Mergers are a tricky recipe. Take two companies, add large labor groups and complex technologies. Mix in two different corporate cultures.
American-US Airways will employ about 94,000 people, fly about 950 airplanes and generate close to $40 billion in revenue. It will serve nine major hubs, including Dallas-Fort Worth, with 6,500 daily flights.
Industry experts describe US Airways as a "scrappier" culture and American as more formal.
Randy Petersen, publisher of InsideFlyer magazine, says "American is dressed in pinstripes and US Airways is dressed in Dockers."
"American has been working on trying to change its culture," said travel industry analyst and former airline manager Henry Harteveldt in San Francisco. "They've hired someone in marketing to take a look at tone and voice about how it should present itself to the public and how it should interact with one another as part of its rebranding effort."
At the new American, industry watchers say it will be the new CEO who will set the tone of the culture.
That will be Parker, 51, who is known for not being afraid to take risks and for crazy capers at company Halloween parties (he went Gangnam Style last year).
Many moving parts
Mergers can be messy.
"In the best of circumstances, mergers are fraught with operational difficulty," said airline consultant Harrell. "There are a lot of moving parts in these systems and some of these legacy systems can be somewhat arcane."
Most industry experts say the Delta-Northwest merger in 2008 went smoothly, while United-Continental's merger in 2010 has experienced more turbulence.
Last March, when United and Continental merged their reservations systems and frequent-flier programs on the same day, it delayed flights, caused a spike in customer complaints and prompted United CEO Jeff Smisek to apologize for not delivering better service.
American and US Airways' own merger history is mixed. US Airways' union with America West in 2005 has had its shares of glitches. American had little to show within a few years of completing its three previous mergers.
This time around, American's three largest labor groups addressed integration issues in pre-merger agreements with US Airways, but some pilot seniority issues remain.
Some observers inside and outside American predict the pilot integration will be messy. US Airways' pilots and flight attendants still are divided into America West unions and the legacy US Airways unions and American has many angry union members.
Antitrust issues
Mergers can fall through. In 2001, United's attempt to buy US Airways collapsed amid Justice Department opposition.
US Airways and American executives say they expect to complete the merger in the third quarter, pending approvals by the bankruptcy court, US Airways' shareholders and regulators. Within 18 months of that, Parker said the airlines plan to finish their integration.
The American Antitrust Institute and the Business Travel Coalition think the merger raises a slew of antitrust and consumer issues, including less competition, reduced air service to smaller cities and domination of key U.S. airports.
"We think there's enough smoke for the Department of Justice to take a look at what's happened as a result of previous mergers," said institute vice president Diana Moss.
Still, many industry experts expect regulators to approve the deal since there's little overlap between routes and airport hubs. Of more than 900 routes, American and US Airways overlap in just 12 markets — mostly in cities on the East Coast.
American CEO Tom Horton said the merged airline plans to keep all of the hubs operated by American and US Airways, "but we recognize that as market conditions change here, we're going to need to be really smart and thoughtful about making network decisions that create the highest return for our owners."
But industry analysts think smaller hub cities will suffer as the new airline directs more traffic through larger hubs. It's happened in past mergers.
San Jose, Calif., and St. Louis lost their American hub status within several years of two mergers. Delta significantly downsized its Cincinnati hub. Cleveland had to negotiate a separate agreement with United-Continental to keep operating as a hub.
The Consumer Travel Alliance's Leocha thinks Phoenix and Charlotte, N.C., are the hubs in the most danger from American's merger with US Airways. In Charlotte, he predicts, Latin American service will shift to Miami and European service will shift to New York or Philadelphia. Phoenix could be replaced by better positioned Dallas-Fort Worth or Los Angeles, he said.
Other airlines
Mergers don't happen in a vacuum. Other airlines will be affected by American's merger with US Airways.
Delta could be hurt the most because of its Atlanta hub and its strong presence on the East Coast, which is where American-US Airways will be a juggernaut, said Radia Amari, an airline analyst of IbisWorld Inc. in Santa Monica, Calif.
On the other hand, smaller low-cost airlines, such as JetBlue Airways, will benefit from their competitive pricing in the next five years, she said.
"It's far too early to tell how this alliance will affect or inform any future opportunities we choose to go after," said Brad Hawkins, spokesman for Dallas-based Southwest Airlines. Southwest still is digesting its own 2011 merger with AirTran Airways.

Anyone that knows me online and IRL knows that that I don't feed my kids McDonalds. Not to say they have NEVER eaten there but as a family we try VERY hard to keep our choices as healthy as possible about 99% of the time.
I feel everyone is able to make their own decisions to either eat healthy or not but when fast food companies like McDonalds start marketing directly to children I have a major problem with it. Children are so impressionable. When you throw Ronald McDonald and other characters in their face, give them video games and have children campaigning directly for the company – what do you think the children are going to say? I WANT MCDONALDS!
Schools around the country are having fundraisers with McDonalds. School staff works at McDonalds for a few hours on a certain day and all the children at the school along with their parents are suppose to go to that local McDonald's and purchase a meal so proceeds can go directly to their child's school. It's a GREAT idea but why McDonalds, why not do a local fundraiser with a local restaurant. By doing using a local guy – you are not only helping out your organization but also a local business not a zillion dollar company!
Did you know that your school can also get a free visit from Ronald McDonald (including food) so that he can teach children about giving back and charities? Sounds good doesn't it? Well here is some fine print for you – This show is sponsored as an All-School Assembly. If all students DO NOT participate in the presentation a show fee may be charged to your school. So if you as a parent choose NOT to have your child participate, the school could be charged….nice huh?
Don't get me wrong McDonalds has done some amazing things for charity with their money – but DON'T advertise as a healthy place to eat when your foods are filled with sodium, fat, sugar, unidentifiable ingredients, GMO's and the list can go on and on. Its false advertising and I cannot express my concerns enough to all the parents out there that feed McDonalds to their children on a regular basis. We have a MAJOR issue with childhood diabetes and obesity in this country and when McDonalds advertise directly to children they are NOT helping the matter – they are making it worse.
McDonalds like many global corporations, works hard to create brand loyalty at a very young age by using characters like Ronald McDonald to create an emotional attachment in kids – kind of like Elmo or Curious George but they aren't selling junk food to kids – McDonalds is doing that by placing advertisements in local libraries, schools and hospitals – exactly in front of children. They are not stupid – McDonalds know exactly what they are doing.
The McDonalds marketers have labeled parents as "GATEKEEPERS" because we are the problem. Parents want their children to make healthy choices and McDonalds want their food to be the #1 choice of a child and if they could get the "gatekeeper parents" out of the way the kids could get hooked.
Wondering how you can take a stand – First head over to the Corporate Accountability International's Value [the] Meal campaign and then join the movement and let McDonalds know that their advertising for kids is WRONG by signing with Moms Not Lovin It
On Twitter? Here is a sample tweet to help get the attention of McDonald's –
All I want for Mother's Day is for McDonald's to stop marketing junk food to my kids. #MomsNotLovinIt
Let's work together in making our child's future a bit healthier by educating others of what big corporate companies like McDonalds are doing to help promote bad eating habits, diabetes and obesity in our children.

The code below shows how we are using a View to fetch results.
IView list = _cache.GetView(entityIndex.DesignDoc, entityIndex.View, true).Keys(keys);
if (list != null && list.Count() > 0){ results = list.ToList();}
The issue is that the first call: _cache.GetView() takes hardly 2ms to 4ms to execute, but the last statement: results = list.ToList() is taking ~ 600ms for around 500 objects.
Each object has around 30 attributes, and we are storing the objects as JSON in order to use Views.
So is the time being taken due JSON De-serialization?
Regards,Sunil Singh
Not exactly, the time taken is not due to json-deserialization (which obviously plays a part, though) it's because the first line is merely building a query to execute and the third is actually executing the query - it's a two-step process:
Builds up the query expression to execute - the actual execution is deferred until this is invoked during the call to Count():
if (list != null && list.Count() > 0)
Since this requires a trip to the server to get the results and perform the count the time you are seeing here is actually that overhead along with json-deserialization and any other processing that occurs.
Again, when this line is executed:
results = list.ToList();
The query expression is executed again, this time bringing back the entire results (documents) from the server and then going through the deserialization process and finally creating and returning them as a List.
So in short, in the GetView(..) call is merely building a query to execute which is then executed twice during the call to Count() and again on ToList(), which where the 600 milliseconds is coming from.

Couldn't take my gnex anymore... lol I'm just curious about how long it takes to charge the battery? With the phone on when charging, plugged into an outlet using the supplied cord etc.. it takes me around 6+ hours to fully charge. This seems to be longer in length than it really should be? I'm getting incredible battery life on this baby... lol love it. I can't imagine this is a dud, since the battery life is incredible, but perhaps the actual charger cord is a dud? Thanks for the help

SAN PABLO — One man was killed and another man wounded in a Saturday night shooting in San Pablo.
Emergency crews arrived just after 11 p.m. Saturday to find two men with gunshot wounds in the 1800 block of Powell Street, near Market Avenue, said police Sgt. Bradley Lindbloom.
One man was pronounced dead and the other transported to a local hospital with non life-threatening wounds, he said.
Lindbloom would not reveal the names of either victim. No arrests have been made.
Saturday's slaying was the third gun death this year in the city of about 30,000. There were no homicides last year.
Anyone with information can call San Pablo detectives at 510-215-3150.

UDEV rule not running a command
I have a UDEV rule below that maps a symlink from a specific usb device and 'Should' run a command.
I can run the command "/usr/local/bin/my_command" from the shell fine.
mount /dev/myusbstick_1 /media/TMPUSB && cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/md5 md5_crypt --key-file=/media/TMPUSB/key && vgscan && vgchange -ay && mount -a && umount /media/TMPUSB
By the way what does UDEV run as, I assumned +x on ROOT as that is the owner should be enough.
I presume that the one line code is your my_command script.
As it is of the form :
command1 && command2 && command3 && ...
if one of the command fails the others will not be executed.
So maybe, when your script is launched by udev, that is what happens.
To know if it is the case and what command fails, you can modify your script like that :
if ! command1;then
echo "Executing command1" > logfilename
berbae's advice to get your command to do some logging is good. It might help to post your command here. One possible gotcha is that the $PATH environment variable may not be set to a sane value; try setting it to a sane value or using full paths on commands so $PATH is not used.

On Monday, rumors went viral claiming ROC Nation rapper J.Cole and Bad Boy Record's CEO Sean "Diddy" Combs were involved in a physical altercation at Diddy's VMAs afterparty. Vibe reported that the two exchanged words with a physical altercation following:
"The rapper's allegedly exchanged words that turned into a physical altercation where J. Cole and Diddy roughed each other up. Seems like cooler heads prevailed and the party went on, yet without J. Cole in attendance as he was escorted out of the building."
Wow! Who steps to a guy at his own event? J. Cole had to know he was going to get thrown out.
Anyhow, Diddy sent out a tweet this morning, pretty much shutting down the rumors saying:

text: U.S. citizen Sarah Shourd, accused by Iranian authorities of illegal entry and espionage, had been detained in Iran for more than 13 months before she was freed Sept. 14. Shourd, 32, was hiking along the Iraq-Iran border with Shane Bauer and Joshua Fattal in July 2009 when the three were arrested and jailed in Tehran's Evin prison. Iran--citing Shourd's health problems, which, according to her mother, include a breast lump and precancerous cervical cells--recently demanded $500,000 in bail for her release. (It was not immediately clear who made payment.) President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton issued statements welcoming the release, thanking Switzerland and Oman for assistance and urging Iran to free the other two Americans. Iranian authorities, however, announced they would extend the detention of Bauer and Fattal, both 28, for two months. In a joint statement, the families of the three hikers said Bauer--Shourd's fiancé--and Fattal "deserve to come home too. Iran has no grounds to deprive them of their liberty a moment longer."

I'm currently reading George Gissing's novel New Grub Street, a thoroughly depressing look at the business of manufacturing literature, of belles lettres for sale, and all the petty personality squabbles and scrambles for pre-eminence that go along with it. Gissing seems bent on persuading us that money is all that matters in the end—i.e., without money a person will lose all sense of propriety and poverty is sufficient to coarsen the morals of anyone—and that of course literary merit has nothing to do with commercial viability. He denounces the "hateful spirit of literary rancour…that made people eager to believe all evil," noting that literary gossip and what we would now call snark "were enough to make all literature appear a morbid excrescence upon human life." The book's successful character has a robust social network and no illusions about the crap he cranks out; he regards the idea that literature is a calling as the same sort of sentimental claptrap as romantic love, an obstacle that one must circumvent, an illusion that must be abandoned to get along. Naturally, the failure character is just the opposite, thin-skinned, too proud to self-promote or make instrumental use of friends, and too conscious of the inferiority of his product crafted for the market rather than his muse.
Though resolutely humorless and padded out in places to itself meet the tyrannical demands of the Victorian triple-decker, New Grub Street is also chock full of cynical advice for getting along in the then-newfangled world of journalism. Milvain, the successful hack, tells his aspiring sister after reading one of her articles that "there's rather too much thought in it, perhaps. Suppose you knock out one or two of the less obvious reflections, and substitute a wholesome commonplace?" Readers, he argues, "are irritated, simply irritated by anything that isn't glaringly obvious. They hate an unusual thought." To write for the public, one must "express vulgar thought and feeling in a way that flatters the vulgar thinkers and feelers." In today's context, you might put a slightly different spin on that: writing must be simple so it can be grasped quickly, because everyone is too much in a hurry to devote precious time to any one article. They are under too much pressure to move on to the next thing. But Gissing was prescient about this as well: he has a character lament the "huge library, growing into unwieldiness, threatening to become a trackless desert of print."
Not much has changed in the publishing world as far as I can see—who you know and how timely you file can seem far more important than how good your writing is. And also, it doesn't suit to be a prima donna about your prose until you've earned the right, then you are obliged to be one, whether or not you have any actual gripes with what editors are doing to your work. Professional journalism is often an elaborate reputation game that requires a facility with signaling and accruing social capital. Whether or not one accepts this reality and accommodates it does seem to determine how far one will get in the publishing world, and perhaps in adult life generally. (I'm often tempted to pout and wait for my precocious specialness to be noticed.)
Economist Robin Hanson makes a similar point in this post about the "shallowness" of our society's most efficacious signals—in this case the salience of "Ivy League school" to signify a crystallized complex of bourgeois elitist traits and supplant more-nuanced proofs of ability. He concludes that shallow signals are more potent because we know that they will be widely understood beyond our immediate community. Everyone at Northwest State University may know how brilliant your work is from direct experience, but others will have to read through it to make that discovery. And those others, who have nothing invested in you yet, would much rather hear that you went to Yale and thereby take your brilliance for granted than put all that time in.
We all want to affiliate with high status people, but since status is about common distant perceptions of quality, we often care more about what distant observers would think about our associates than about how we privately evaluate them…. Academics understand that folks primarily care about distant common signals of impressiveness, such as publications. Getting a lousy paper into a top journal usually counts for more than a fantastic paper in a low rank journal. Only in small tightly-connected academic communities can an informal perception that your low-journal paper was fantastic make it count for more than a crappy top-journal paper.
A similar logic seems to apply to all self-branding efforts, talking about what music we are into, or what books we read, or what sort of logos we have on our clothing, or what kind of car we drive, or what our vocabulary is like, and so on. Assume that it's true that the broader the swath of the population we are trying to impress, the more obvious our choice of signifiers will have to be. Because of the interconnectivity of social networks, and the tantalizing promise of internet fame, the potential audience for our performance of self is always seeming more and more broad, so our choices will be forced toward the more and more obvious, the more and more heavy-handed.

Home furnishing combining style and simple functionality ... and the particular needs of the elder community"
"Much more than a lamp or nightlight ... Blys enables focussed security, spatial awareness, reduces falls and breakages, low impact illumination, and improves ambience for residents and staff alike"
"Most nursing home residents sleep with the light on due to anxiety - this promotes ill-temper, poor health and accelerates dementia"
The Blys™ concept is derived from findings of 'SomnIA'; a four year research programme undertaken by a consortium of universities as part of the 'New Dynamics of Ageing' initiative. The main research partner was the Bath Institute of Medical Engineering (now called Designability)
The main aims were:
- To understand the meanings and determinants of poor quality sleep among older people in the community and in residential settings
- To develop cost-effective approaches to non-pharmacological self-management of sleep problems among older people with chronic disease
Blys™ measures 15.75" by 15.75" square and is only 1" deep. It has four non-slip feet and is spill proof Power consumption is very low; less than 700mA at 5V. The unit does not get hot, even at the maximum brightness

|SD is a cool line for sure, not one of the best but there's hard climbing on good rock and engaging moves above gear and then bolt protected funkiness between arete and seam. Having the three upper bolts is nice compared to what appeared to have been short knifeblades in the seam. It's too bad the pillar is there and there isn't an uncontrived direct start. I didn't see a 1" placement and found #00-#2 TCU's and a #10 Stopper to be the best pro for the middle. Don't fall above the 2nd bolt before getting gear! The crux is a real thinker that's for sure!

|This is a really good route, with great movement. If your willing to do a move or two above the pure palm anchor, it's quite easy to TR it that way. There is a wrong way and a "right" way to do the top section. Don't think it's all stemming, the crux for me included an exciting dead point and insecure moves with great body tension and poor feet. 12a seems right for the grade, comparable to White Trash and Try to Be Hip.
