Photographers have gotten rich off of it. But you have to experience it. The hues of red, yellow and orange. Pumpkins on the side of the road. Cinnamon-spiced apple cider warming in rustic kitchens. You see, Vermont has endured four solid months of winter, the mud season that follows and a short hot summer. Vermont deserves this. So do you.

Franklin police are investigating an elaborate burglary at the T.J. Maxx store at Cool Springs. Police say the thieves made entry through the roof and stole money from a safe before leaving undetected.
The break-in occurred sometime between 10 p.m. Sunday and 8 a.m. Monday.
Employees arriving for work Monday found cash missing from an office inside the store, located at 545 Cool Springs Blvd., and called police.
Investigators believe the culprits accessed the store from the roof and were able to dodge the store's security systems.
The crime was so intricate, detectives spent about five hours at the scene Monday examining evidence.
"This is one of those burglaries where, when you hear about it, it leaves you scratching your head in a way that you can't believe someone actually went through the trouble they did to gain access to a business for a burglary like this," said Franklin police spokesman Lt. Charles Warner. "It is very unusual."
It was the type of burglary you might expect at a jewelry store or a bank. No merchandise was taken - just cash - and while police are not saying exactly how the thieves cut through the roof - they say it was like something from a 'Mission Impossible' movie.
The amount of cash stolen has not been disclosed.
Anyone with information that could help police in the investigation is asked to call detectives at 615-794-2513 or CrimeStoppers at 615-794-4000.

She was found dead in the driver's seat. Police say two people found Sligh inside a car around 3 a.m. on South White Street and called 911.

Umeå (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈʉːmɛo] ( ); Westrobothnian: Ume, Ume Sami: Ubmeje, Finnish: Uumaja, Northern Sami: Ubmi) is a university town in northern Sweden. It is the seat of Umeå Municipality and the capital of Västerbotten County. The city is located on the Ume River.
Umeå is the biggest city in Norrland and the twelfth biggest in Sweden, with 79,594 inhabitants in 2010.[1] The municipality has 117 294 inhabitants as of 2013.[2][3] When the university was established in 1965, growth sped up, and the number of housing has doubled in the last 30 years. As of 2011[update], 700 to 800 new apartments are constructed each year.[4]
Umeå is a centre of education, technical and medical research in Sweden, with two universities and over 39,000 students. The city has been elected European Capital of Culture, 2014.
The first written mention of Umeå is from the 14th century. The northern parts of Sweden, including the counties of Västerbotten and Norrbotten, were mostly settled by nomadic Sami people before this time but not necessarily forming any permanent settlement in the city's exact location since the Sami people were, for large parts of the year, herding their reindeer in the inland mountainous parts of modern Westrobothnia.
Therefore the coast came to be permanently settled by Germanic peoples moving upwards on the Bothnian Bay by boat, hence the Germanic names of towns and villages on the Westrobothnian coast. Some kven people had permanent settlements in northern Westrobothnia (Piteå and Luleå) but were gradually assimilated with the Germanic tribes although some Finnish names of lakes and villages survived. Southern Westrobothnia (Umeå and Skellefteå) has been a permanent Germanic settlement since at least the 14th century, but probably since the Viking ages or earlier.
Umeå in its first form was a parish with a wooden church and trade post located in the section of town now known as Backen (or Kyrkbacken). Its location near the coast and on a river was probably one of the reasons that people chose to settle there.[5]
For the next couple of centuries Umeå was a place consisting of scattered parishes, where merchandise originating with the Sami people was traded, and was the last inhabited place before the northern wilderness took over. However, no real city was built at the location selected by the king, and it lost its town privileges in the 1590s.[5]
In 1622, a city was again founded by Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden.[6] In 1638, it had about 40 houses.[5] It suffered from Russian attacks in 1714 and in 1720 when it was burnt to the ground. At the close of the Finnish War in 1809 the Russian army under Barclay de Tolly took Umeå and held it from June to August.[7]
On 25 June 1888, a fire devastated the eastern parts of Umeå and at least 2,300 of the 3,000 inhabitants became homeless. In the restoration following the fire, silver birch trees were planted along wide avenues to prevent future fires from spreading.[8] For this reason Umeå is sometimes known as "Björkarnas Stad", the "City of Birches".[9] and the name of the Umeå ice-hockey team, Björklöven, means "The Birch Leaves".
Umeå is situated on the inlet of the Gulf of Bothnia at the mouth of the Ume River, in the south of Västerbotten. Umeå is about 600 km (373 mi) north of Stockholm and about 400 km (249 mi) south of the Arctic Circle. It is the largest city north of the Stockholm-Uppsala region, and is sometimes referred to as the regional centre of northern Sweden. The nearby community of Holmsund serves as its port. From here a ferry line connects it with the neighbouring city of Vaasa (Swedish: Vasa) in Finland. The near connections to Finland affects the population of the city - several Sweden Finns live in Umeå.
The climate of Umeå is subarctic, with short and fairly warm summers. Winters are lengthy and freezing but considering the latitude very mild due to the influence of the Gulf Stream.[citation needed] Average January temperature is about −8 °C (18 °F), July is 16 °C (61 °F).

The road infrastructure in Umeå is well-developed, with two European highways (E4 and E12) passing by the city.[11] About 4 kilometres (2 miles) from the city centre is the Umeå Airport. It is the 7th largest airport in Sweden by annual number of passengers, with 844,932 passengers in 2010.[12][13]
The Bothnia Line (or Botniabanan) connects to Umeå from the south, it runs along the High Coast via Örnsköldsvik to Umeå. This railway was opened on 28 August 2010. The new railway line is 190 km (118 mi) long, containing 140 bridges and 25 km (16 mi) of tunnels. It provides Umeå with a fast train connection to Stockholm (6½ hours). A new railway station, Umeå East Station, was built in connection to Norrland's University Hospital and Umeå University.
The Opera of northern Sweden, the Norrland Opera, is based in the city. The annual Umeå Jazz Festival is one of the larger Scandinavian festivals for modern jazz.
Umeå is the home of the heavy metal band Meshuggah, which was labelled by the Rolling Stone as "one of the ten most important hard and heavy bands";[14] Other well-known metal bands from Umeå include Cult of Luna, Hollow, Persuader and Nocturnal Rites.
During the 1990s, the influence of Umeå hardcore punk bands such as Final Exit, Step Forward, Refused, Abhinanda and Doughnuts and the local labels Desperate Fight Records and Busted Heads Records led to the growth of Umeå's hardcore scene. Also significant were the number of straight edge groups.[citation needed]
It is also the home of the independent record label Ny Våg, releasing internationally known Umeå artists like AC4, Masshysteri and Invasionen.
The main museums in Umeå are: Bildmuseet - Museum of Contemporary Art and Visual Culture, Museum of the county of Västerbotten with Gammlia outdoor museum and the Swedish Ski Museum.
Umeå is a centre for cultural activities, with annual film and music festivals. The city has been elected the European Cultural Capital for 2014.[15]
Umeå is the centre of television in northern Sweden, SVT Nord and TV4's northern region office are both based in the city. The main newspapers of the county of Västerbotten, Västerbottens-Kuriren and Västerbottens Folkblad are also based in Umeå.
The city of Umeå currently hosts four major sports clubs. The women's football club Umeå IK. The men's hockey team IF Björklöven was very successful in the 1980s but has been less successful in recent years. Björklöven are currently playing in the Swedish second-tier league HockeyAllsvenskan while Umeå IK plays in the top Swedish women's football league Damallsvenskan. IBK Dalen and IKSU are among the major Floorball teams in Sweden, whereas both teams has been in the Swedish Championships finals two years in a row (as of 2013). Other sports clubs include:
Umeå also has a Roller Derby team, Ume Radical Rollers started in 2009 and they are still present.
In 2011 Umeå Baseboll & Softboll was founded ( http://www2.idrottonline.se/UmeaBasebollochSoftbollklubb-BasebollochSoftboll/Hem/). The team has 2 former national team players as coaches and currently play in Norra Regionserien.
Education and research[edit]
Umeå University has about 37,000 students and 4,200 staff. The establishment of the university in the mid-1960s led to a population expansion from about 50,000 inhabitants to today's 75,645. The expansion continues, with about 1000 new inhabitants every year,[citation needed] and has made Umeå a modern, somewhat intellectual city to add to the traditional basis of heavy industry for cities along the coast of northern Sweden (Norrland).
The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences or "Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet" is a university in Sweden. Although its head office is located in Uppsala (Ultuna), the university has several campuses in different parts of Sweden, including Umeå. Unlike other state owned universities in Sweden, it is funded through the budget for the Ministry of Agriculture.
The university hospital serves the entire region of northern Sweden.
Key research fields of the University are life sciences (especially medical and cell and the molecular biology of plants), human technology interaction, social welfare, ecology and gender perspectives.
The Umeå University works collaboratively with companies such as ABB, Volvo, Skanska, Ericsson, and Öhrlings PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC).[citation needed]
The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) in Umeå, with Umeå Plant Science Centre, is another major site of research and education.

ISF is a not-for-profit organization working to support and improve ecological health, through advocacy, research, consultation and education. ISF works to build, support and replicate models of success. Consistent with its ecological approach, ISF engages in campaigns which foster relationships and collaboration. ISF recognizes science and the arts as equally important in building a healthy, sustainable world.ISF provides expertise on environmental toxins, health care design and healthy food systems and has presented and consulted internationally.
ISF is a founding member of the Commons Health Network. Distinct from our conventional health care delivery systems, a "commons" health care system is community driven (rather than hospital driven), focused on prevention (rather than treatment), employs local or bioregional knowledge and solutions, involves regenerative design and promotes integrative medical approaches. For more information and to join the network visit www.commonshealth.org. The Commons Health Network helped launch the Commons Health Hospital Challenge, a community clinician called to action on three key prevention initiatives.
Underlying all our work is an appreciation for and recognition of relationship. It is how change is made and provides the ability to think creatively about multi-benefit solutions. So, for example by working towards safer chemical policies, we can enhance the health of individuals, workers that make our goods, our environment and community. It draws on the science that links global chemical contamination throughout the web of life.
Similarly, our work on food systems forces the recognition that the issues of justice, access, nutrition and environment and others are false distinctions. They are one and the same. The International Agriculture Assessment highlights the interconnections between human rights, democratic decision making, community health and agroecological.
Again, we apply this approach to our work on a community driven primary treatment model in healthcare. We recognize not only the dehumanising aspect our our current treatment model, but that in the quest for resources neccesary to fuel a healthcare system which represents now approximately 18% of the GDP, we are unintentionally adding to the burden of disesase. So for example, would it not make sense for hosptials to support food that is health promoting and work to reduce and eliminate this common driver of chronic disease.For more information...

The building, construction, and real estate industries encompass a broad spectrum of interests. These include the traditional players, such as owners, investors, developers, lenders, and engineering and construction firms as well as non-traditional players, such as banks, insurance companies, special servicers, and pension funds.
Amid today's turbulent economic landscape, all of these players face increasingly complex challenges. Liquidity and financing risks, corporate governance, risk management, regulatory reform, infrastructure development, and organizational issues caused by consolidation, growth, and systems evolution are among them.

That is why many organizations turn to KPMG's Building, Construction & Real Estate (BC&RE) practice. Operating within the firm's Financial Services practice, our BC&RE professionals provide tailored services throughout the business life cycle.
With 1,500 professionals in the U.S. BC&RE practice and more than 3,000 worldwide across KPMG International's network of member firms, we combine the responsiveness of a small firm with the resources and strategic perspective of a large, global network. These factors help us serve our clients' needs across a broad spectrum of issues and geographies.

92. THE GREY FRIARS, RICHMOND Footnotes
The foundation of this friary is attributed to Ralph Fitz Randal, lord of Middleham, in 1258: his heart was buried in the quire in 1270. (fn. 1) The friary stood in the north part of the town, a little without the walls. (fn. 2) Archbishop Romanus, when organizing the preaching of the Crusade in 1291, requested the friars of Richmond to provide one preacher there and to send one to the most suitable place in the deanery of Copeland (Cumberland). (fn. 3) John of Britanny, Earl of Richmond, left £5 to these friars on his death in 1304. (fn. 4) In this year Arthur of Hartlepool, an apostate friar who had carried off some goods of neighbours and friends of the friars deposited in their house, was arrested by the king's officers and given up to the friars of Richmond for punishment. (fn. 5) Special instructions were sent by the arch bishop to the warden in January 1314-15 to preach against the Scots and rouse the people to resist. (fn. 6) In 1350-1 Robert of Hexham was warden and lector of the convent. (fn. 7)
In 1364 Sir Richard le Scrope, kt. (afterwards first Lord Scrope of Bolton), and William de Huddeswell granted these friars five tofts adjacent to their dwelling, held of the Earl of Richmond and containing 4 acres of land. (fn. 8) John de Nevill, lord of Raby, granted them 1½ acres of meadow in 1383. (fn. 9) Richard le Scrope of Bolton left the friars £10 in his will, 1400; (fn. 10) and Sir Stephen le Scrope of Bentley left 10 marks to the house and 6s. 8d. to each friar in January 1405-6. (fn. 11) Sir Ralph Fitz Randal, kt, left them 7 marks in 1458. (fn. 12) In May 1484 Richard III ordered Geoffrey Franke, receiver of Middleham, 'to content the friars of Richmond with 12½ marks for the saying of a thousand masses for King Edward IV.' (fn. 13) On the death of Margaret Richmond, anchoress in the parish church of Richmond, a dispute arose between William Ellerton, the Abbot of St. Agatha, and William Billyngham, warden of the Grey Friars, on the one part, and the burgesses on the other, and was referred to arbitration. The arbitrators decided 30 April 1490 that the warden and friars should have the goods of the late anchoress remaining after the debts had been paid and the place restored, because she took the habit from the friars; that the abbot should dispose of the goods of the present anchoress for a similar reason; while the nomination to the anchorage should be in the hands of the bailiff and twenty-four burgesses of the great inquest of Richmond. (fn. 14)
The comic ballad of 'The Felon Sow of Rokeby,' dating probably from the 15th century, tells how Ralph Rokeby of Morton gave a savage sow to the friars of Richmond, 'to mend their fare,' when Friar Theobald was warden, and relates the exciting adventures of Friar Middleton and his assistants in their attempt to catch the beast, the final capture, and triumphant return to Richmond:
If ye will any more of this, In the Fryers of Richmond 'tis In parchment good and fine; And how Fryar Middleton that was so kend, At Greta Bridge conjured a feind In likeness of a swine. (fn. 15)
The house was surrendered 19 January 1538-9 by Robert Sanderson, S.T.P., the warden, thirteen priests, and one other. (fn. 16) The goods were sold in gross to Ralph Gower, merchant, and Richard Crosseby, both of Richmond, for 100s. The warden received 13s. 4d., the other friars sums varying from 10s. to 4s., and amounting in all to £5 3s. 2d. The lead on the church was estimated at three fother, the three bells at 2,000 lb., and the plate weighed 31 oz. (fn. 17) There was a conduit of water at the Friars, the only one in the town. (fn. 18) The site, which was inclosed by a wall and comprised nearly 16 acres, (fn. 19) was valued at 31s. a year, and was leased to Ralph Gower for twenty-one years in 1539. (fn. 20)
The seal is pointed oval and represents St. Francis standing on a corbel, lifting up the right hand in benediction, in the left a book; on each side a tree with birds on it, representing 'the Wilderness,' or St. Francis preaching to the birds. Overhead, under a trefoiled arch, two shields of the arms of Nevill. (fn. 21)

vacation rental description
Fabulous 3BR Condo at Section F, Ocean Sands in Corolla! Short board-walk to beach, community pool and tennis outside your door. Great for small families or two couples! Across from Currituck Club and near Tim Buck II. Close to Wild Horse Sanctuary and OBX attractions!
Grammie's Place is a beautiful, beach-cottage style condo in the Outer Banks town of Corolla, NC - just south of the Corolla Lighthouse. Indian Summer Condos have only 2 levels with covered parking underneath. Our 3BR, end-unit condo is on the first level offering nice shade and views, and is a perfect getaway for couples and small families.
To the Beach...We are just a short (125 yard) board-walk to the wide open beaches where you'll relax in the sand and get plenty of board and body surf action. Keep an eye out for dolphins and pelicans, our frequent beach visitors! Perfect for families, our beach is next to one of the few undeveloped parcels of oceanfront remaining in the area. Ocean Sands lifeguards are on duty during the high season for your safety.
Inside our home...Immaculately maintained and designed for your comfort with plenty of room for dining and games. We offer secure WiFi Internet access, Cable TV/DVD in living room and master bedrooms, along with books, DVDs, puzzles, board games and more. Baby on board? A Pack and Play is provided for your use.
Our guests also have free access to an exterior storage area where beach toys, Boogie boards, umbrella, and chairs are available for your use and enjoyment.
From the rocking chairs and picnic table on our comfortable deck you can check out our community pool with expansive decks, lounge chairs and umbrella topped tables. Bring your rackets and enjoy tennis in fenced courts just outside our door.
While you'll feel off the beaten path, you can shop for groceries at Harris Teeter just across the highway, or walk over for custom made Duck Donuts. Shopping and great restaurants just down the road at Tim Buck II or Corolla Village.
If you are new to the Outer Banks we hope you'll fall in love with the area just as we did when we first visited in the late 1970s.... Back when you stopped at the Wee Winks in Duck for milk and eggs, and passed through the guard gate entrance to Ocean Sands and the Corolla/Carova beaches....Over the years we've celebrated graduations, weddings and the arrival of nine grandchildren, dogs and grand-dogs who have grown up on these beaches.
Again, thank you for considering Grammie's Place for your next OBX vacation. Our property manager lives right in Corolla and is ready to deal with any emergency. See you soon! Bonnie (owner) and family.

activities and attractions in Corolla Atlantic Coast
Grammie's Place is located in Section F, Ocean Sands, Corolla north of Duck Village and Pine Island and offers the best of the OBX - from the less populated northern beaches where horses still roam free to fishing, water sports, shopping and great food at TimBuck II, Corolla or Duck - fun for adults and children of all ages!
Wild Horse Sanctuary and 4WD Area
Just a few miles north of our home is Corolla's off-road area where wild Mustangs still run free. Book a guided tour from one of many wild horse adventure tours or head out in your 4WD vehicle. 8th Annual Wild Horse Festival at Corolla Village July 5-7!
Wildlife Education Programs
From the Whalehead Club to the Outer Banks Center for Wildlife Education in Currituck Heritage Park to the Bird Sanctuary near Sanderling (south), enjoy NC wildlife through guided or "on your own" walking or water tours.
Currituck Beach Lighthouse
The Currituck Beach Lighthouse is open for climbing, and its top platform offers a panoramic view of the area and of the village resting at its base. Rent a Segway or take a walk through historic Corolla Village shops at the base of the lighthouse.
Gone Fishin'
OBX offers some of the best fishing and crabbing on the Atlantic - cast your line in the surf or drop a pot off a local pier. Charter a boat for family or group deep sea excursions for the "catch" of the day. TW's and other local tackle shops can tell you what's biting and whether you need a fishing license. Google OBX Charter Fishing Adventures, Oregon Inlet Fishing Center, Pirate's Cover, or TW's Bait and Tackle to get started.
The Currituck Club is located directly across the main road from the entrance to Section F and is a gorgeous, highly rated course. Or, take the kids out to The Grass Course just down the road in Corolla.
Shopping and Food!

smart signal sharing is complete!

Coming soon...EE WiFi on the London Underground
Thanks to a new partnership with Virgin Media, Orange customers will soon be able to stay connected on the London Underground at no extra cost. Keep an eye out – we'll have more details soon.
4G: play your part in bringing it to the UK
We want to bring the benefits of 4G to UK customers. 4G will bring superfast mobile internet speeds to compatible smartphones, tablets and mobile broadband devices. We've already trialled 4G in Cornwall and Cumbria and are currently awaiting approval from our industry regulator Ofcom.
Do you want 4G now? Visit www.4gBritain.org.
smart signal sharing is complete
Orange and T-Mobile have completed the final stage of the 'big switch-on' for smart signal sharing. This means that when a customer's device starts to lose Orange signal, it will automatically check whether the T-Mobile network has better coverage and seamlessly switch to that network.
If no 3G coverage is available, the device will seamlessly switch to 2G signal and will go back on to 3G when either network comes back into range – even if the customer is on a call or in the middle of downloading a web page.
we've started a new 4G trial in Cumbria
At the start of May, Orange and T-Mobile launched a new 4G trial in Cumbria. Local residents will get to experience the next generation of mobile network until July, when the trial ends. This trial will provide valuable information about the performance of 4G in rural areas.
businesses get behind 4G for Britain
The new 4G Britain website has been attracting a lot of attention from the public and business communities. Just days after its launch, the website had received over 20,000 page views.
New official supporters of the site include Experian, Getty Images, Hotels.com, the New West End Company, Deezer and Velti. Plus, the #4GBritain conversation on Twitter has reached over four million people.

Winging It: Picking Apart A Super Bowl Staple
Feb 3, 2013 (Weekend Edition Sunday) — This weekend, Super Bowl spreads across the country will almost surely feature chicken wings. Should they be they slathered in buffalo sauce or fried to a crisp? Or both? Dan Pashman, the host of the podcast, The Sporkful, tells Weekend Edition Sunday host Rachel Martin that there are still some misconceptions about wings.

Diner Reviews
I felt it was very wrong to accept
a reservation for 6:30 (made at 6:15) and then when we arrived on time, to explain we would have to wait for 1/2 hour for the table. It got worse. The hostess explained that they had a private party reservation for 40 so the usual number of tables were not available and "I guess we should have blocked Open Table""

We had just eaten at Roys Rancho
Mirage and it was 10 times better - food and service. The osso bucco was bland. The dinner plates were so hot that they kept cooking the food - my butterfish was mushy. Our coffee was served warm - NOT hot. We mentioned this to the waitress and our refills were also warm and NOT hot. This is the 3rd time we have been disappointed - we will not be back."

My friends and I went to Roy's to
celebrate a birthday and between the appetizers at the bar and our dinner in the restaurant area it was a night we won't forget. The staff was knowledgeable and helpful and all of the food was amazing. I would recommend this place for any special occasion."

The food and ambiance at Roy's is
always great, but their prices seem to have gotten much higher, recently. It is usually relatively quiet to allow for good conversation, unless the place is full. Then it gets a bit noisier."

Hosted two others at Roy's. Since
I've been to several other locations and liked the food and wine list, I figured it to be a no-brainer. It was. Food and service were excellent. The wine list, very large and has interesting finds, is a bit pricy. The noise level is a.bit high. Overall, a great place to host a business dinner."

First visit was a very pleasant

Took my 2 1/2 year old along with

It was our first time here and it
was beautiful. We loved the extra decorations and menu print out for Mom's birthday. The food was perfect and our drinks were great. I don't remember our waiters name. He was attentive when he was helping us, but he would disappear for a long time between ordering appetizers, drinks, and our main course. Our dinner ended up being 3 hours."

Been here before, loved location,

FYI for vegetarians, ask for the
vegetarian menu which is separate from the regular menu. I ordered the teriyaki Portobello mushroom from that, but I have to say I was disappointed. Way too sweet for me. But honestly, the waiter suggested a tofu dish and I probably should have listened. My partner did enjoy the fish entrée he had though. We had a bottle of California sparkling and I thought the price was reasonable. Service was courteous, but I found it odd I had to ask for an ice bucket for the champagne. The waiter just set it on the table and I asked for the bucket next time he came by. We were there to celebrate a birthday and they brought a nice complementary dessert. We liked the ambiance quite a bit. Classy but not fussy."

The title of this review is
admittedly simple, but fantastic sums up all aspects of this restaurant. The food is fantastic - prepared perfectly, fantastic flavors and fantastic presentation. Beautiful ambiance that somehow captures the island feel, while still being extremely professional and first class. I would go here all the time if I could - a fantastically executed restaurant in almost every way."

As much as I love Roy's in
general, the SF location has gone downhill. Maybe it was because it was New Year's Day? I don't know but from the moment we walked in it felt different. first we were seated at possibly the worst table in the restaurant (we had reservations well in advance) and the restaurant was not full.-felt like we were sitting in the kitchen. I asked to be moved and they did move us - that was great. We ordered the spring rolls which were extremely greasy-I wanted to send them back but I didn't. I ordered the butterfish (which I always do) and it was totally different - not a good sear on the fish and extremely salty. Our server was borderline rude-I ordered a Hawaiian Martini first thing and she claimed I did not order it."

My friends and I have parties
here, especially for birthdays. Growing up in SF, my favorite Roy's has to be here of course. Yes, I've been to Hawaii's and Ko Olina, I still love SF. Even if I choose to dine with a girlfriend, my husband, or our kids, Roy's SF accommodates. Customer service is always stellar, I enjoy every meal. I love the variety of drinks and wines. Can't go wrong with Roy's SF, it's the place to be. I would choose to take my husband's clients here, and afterwards, enjoy a stroll around the neighborhood - many sights to see and things to do. Hands down Roy's of SF is my fave!"

I always enjoy eating the
delicious food at Roy's. Unfortunately, it's always so dimly lit inside for dinner that I feel like I have to strain my eyes to see the menu (and my eyesight isn't even that terrible!). It also took a very long time for food to be served, but fortunately, my party wasn't in a huge rush, so the food was worth the wait."

We had our anniversary dinner

Having been to the Roy's in Hawaii
I felt we had to see if the experience was commensurate so we decided to try it. While the food was certainly good, it didn't seem to be as extraordinary by comparison especially when compared against the plethora of other excellent options in San Francisco. That said, both of our meals were very good and the wine list was stocked with a few Napa Valley wines we had previously tried during our tours there which was a treat. At any rate if you are looking for a place you can expect to be good without being too adventurous you can rest assure Roy's will not disappoint."

In August I took my daughter and
her family to Yosemite, Sacramento and San Francisco on vacation, In san Francisco we dined a Roys Restaurant and we had an incredible dinner. We all had different appetizers, entrees, and deserts, and all were wonderful. The Valet parking made it easy to get in and out for the downtown area of San Francisco would have been hard to park our rented suv. The only thing that I would change is that you should get a table upstairs away from the bar if you want to talk or hear the people you are with for it is VERY loud downstairs, but all in all its a great restaurant that features Pacific - rim and San Francisco mix of food."

The minute we walked in they gave
us our table after we were running a little late. We were celebrating our 9th wedding anniversary and when we opened our menus there was a letter congratulating us and was very special. The food and service was exceptional and everyone was very nice even moving things up as we had to head to a concert. To top it off we were very full after our meal and passed on dessert but were surprised when the waiter presented us with a mini 9th anniversary dessert to top off a wonderful evening!, First Class!,"

This is my go-to spot in the

The prix fixe is a great way to enjoy a 3 course meal at a reason price. The main courses are outstanding (try the Butterfish or the Filet Mignon) and the desserts are amazing (the molten chocolate cake is to die for). Staff was attentive and professional. I would recommend this restaurant for a private get-together, a corporate event or to just grab an excellent happy hour after work!"

We went to celebrate a birthday,
and they provided three special extras for the celebration (I won't say what in case you are going for a special event-I want you to be surprised!) They were quite lovely surprises, and it made things extra special! I was impressed by the amount of birthday extras and the care that went into it! The food was very, very good. The seafood was wonderful. Sides were unimpressive, but I was going for the seafood and felt I got what I wanted there-fresh and delicious! Service was nice. I was hoping for more of a Hawaii feel in the atmosphere, though. I've been missing Hawaii lately and wanted to feel like we were back in Hawaii, but it didn't really have a "Hawaii" feel in there, which I missed."

Roy's was our first stop during a

Food was just ok. Definitely not
bad, and I'm glad that I went once to try it, but there is better food around. Nowhere NEAR as good as the Roy's that I went to several years ago in Kaua'i. So if you are a fan of Roy's in Hawaii, don't expect the same quality here. It's probably worth going to try it once, but I doubt it will become one of your favorites."

The staff was soooo nice and the

I was in San Francisco on business and dined alone. It was a perfect place for dining by yourself as it was quiet and cozy. I'm not a picky eater but I tend not to eat in large quanties the chicken dish I had was in just the right portion so I could eat it all and not feel stuffed."

Jurassic Park Here I Come!: Scientists Clone Extinct Species, Dinosaurs Hopefully Next
That happy little camper is a Pyrenean ibex. He's from Narnia. And sadly, he's dead. Along with all the other Pyrenean ibexes. But scientists just cloned one from frozen cells but then it died too. So there aren't any more. Which is a real shame, they look delicious.
Using DNA taken from these skin samples, the scientists were able to replace the genetic material in eggs from domestic goats, to clone a female Pyrenean ibex, or bucardo as they are known. It is the first time an extinct animal has been cloned.
Sadly, the newborn ibex kid died shortly after birth due to physical defects in its lungs. Other cloned animals, including sheep, have been born with similar lung defects.t has also increased the possibility that it will one day be possible to reproduce long-dead species such as woolly mammoths and even dinosaurs.
Did you read that last bit? I didn't make that up, somebody actually wrote that. Dinosaurs, baby, get excited. Speaking of which, The Geekologie Writer's Heavy-Petting Zoo is currently seeking financial investors. Facebook message me if you're rich. Or want to exchange naked pictures.

Thanks to Adam and Mark, who will each receive a free Woolly Mammoth ride.

What's new at Pack Expo 2009?
A "Brand" new focus
As consumers continue to weather the recession, they are scrutinizing spending and trying to get the best value for their dollar. For many shoppers, that means turning to packaging for clues about the product inside.PMMI partnered with Lippincott, a global brand strategy and design consultancy firm, to design The Brand Zone and create a unique experience for Pack Expo attendees.
Pre-planning for post-show results
Because efficiency is especially top of mind today, why not apply its principles to pre-show planning?
To help attendees get the most out of their time at the show, PMMI has redesigned Packexpo.com. Visitors to the new Web site will find several innovative features and enhanced functionality. For example, exhibiting companies have comprehensive online booths that include detailed product pages, press releases and information on show-related benefits or added-value programs. Listings will remain active for several months following the show, allowing attendees to close the loop on business opportunities discovered on the show floor.
Attendees can also take advantage of their personal portals, My Pack Expo™. My Pack Expo intelligently mines the show's database of exhibitors, keywords, products, services and conference sessions based on individual criteria entered when registering. Attendees can locate specific suppliers and solutions, schedule appointments with exhibitors, and register for Conference at Pack Expo educational sessions, all before they step foot on the show floor.
Pre-show planning has even gone mobile, thanks to a new technology called ChirpE. This downloadable application links users directly to Packexpo.com in real-time and allows them to search for products, exhibitors and sessions, create itineraries, and download floor maps.
"Our goal with the new Packexpo.com is to allow attendees to customize the show to their individual requirements, helping ensure a successful experience," explains Yuska. "Whether they have one, two, or three days to spend at Pack Expo, this site provides tools to save time and achieve their business goals all year long."
Bringing value to Vegas
To help packaging professionals stretch their travel time and budgets, PMMI is collaborating with leading industry associations to offer a range of additional programming.
• The Association of Independent Corrugated Converters (AICC) will hold its 2009 Annual Meeting and 14th International Package Design Competition Oct. 5-7, at the MGM Grand Hotel, in conjunction with Pack Expo. The meeting's agenda includes a series of eye openers, general sessions and networking events built around the theme of "Survive and Thrive through Packaging Diversification." AICC's International Corrugated Package Design Competition will be featured in The Brand Zone at Pack Expo, near "The Showcase of Packaging Innovations¨. AICC attendees will receive complimentary admission to Pack Expo.
• The MGM Grand Hotel will also be home to The International Bottled Water Association's (IBWA) 2009 Convention and Tabletop Trade Show (October 5-9). This is the second time the IBWA and PMMI have collaborated to benefit the customer audience, membership, and other partners. IBWA Convention and Tabletop Trade Show attendees will receive complimentary admission to Pack Expo exhibits.
• In addition to hosting its annual meeting in conjunction with Pack Expo, the Reusable Packaging Association will facilitate a special four-session track of Conference at Pack Expo programming. Led by industry experts, end-users and retailers, these four sessions will focus on a range of issues related to reusable packaging including sustainability, RFID, and effects on the supply chain.
• Pack Expo will feature the new DistriPak Pavilion, dedicated to packaging and paper distributors, and sponsored by the NPTA Alliance (formerly the National Paper Trade Association). The DistriPak Pavilion will be located in the lower part of South Hall.
• Reflecting the new market synergies of the package printing, converting, finishing machinery and supplies industries, the Converting and Package Printing Expo (CPP EXPO) will showcase the latest in printing, coating, slitting, and other state-of-the-art finishing processes.
• Sponsored and produced by the Food Processing Suppliers Association (FPSA), PROCESS EXPO will highlight equipment applicable to fruit and vegetable, beverage, canning/freezing, environmental, instrumentation, prepared foods, can making, meat, dairy, and snack food industries.
"Pack Expo has always focused on giving attendees access to the entire packaging supply chain," comments Yuska. "Bringing together these leading industry associations capitalizes on their natural synergies to give attendees further business reasons to make the trip in October."

Water for 2nd crop looks dimApril 15, 2013, 7:00 pm by James Walker
Any chance that downstream rice farmers in the lower Colorado River basin could get water from the Highland Lakes for use in growing a second crop this year would be virtually eliminated Wednesday if the Lower Colorado River Authority board of directors approves a staff recommendation to extend an Emergency Drought Relief order. The emergency order issued Feb. 19 by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) expires June 18 and the 60-day extension sought by the LCRA staff would all but negate the possibility of a second rice crop this summer. The LCRA board is scheduled to consider the staff recommendation and possibly take action Wednesday at its monthly meeting in Austin.

Sarasota County Commission revisits 2050 plan
Date: January 31, 2013
by: Pam Eubanks | Managing Editor
Members of the Sarasota County Commission agreed Wednesday to revisit the county's 2050 plan for development.
Developers of properties east of Interstate 75, in particular, have raised concerns with the plan, saying the restrictions are too specific and need updates and modifications.
Sarasota County Planning and Development Services will schedule public meetings for addition input on the proposed amendments to the county's comprehensive plan and land development codes.
"We should not lose sight of the fact that the recommendations provided by the private sector do not seek to change what 2050 was intended to do — clustering development and preserving open space," said Todd Pokrywa, vice president of planning for Lakewood Ranch developer Schroeder-Manatee Ranch.
Commissioners adopted the Sarasota 2050 Plan in 2002.

- Enough about the 2050plan. I want to know about the 2100 plan. 2050 is too myopic and short term. Think big and think way out there in the imperceivable future. I'm now thinking that 2200 may also be too short sighted.

Man I don't remember that. Wish you knew where. Yea I thought if something happened to her he would have settled for Delly. I'm glad they got to be with each other - they complete each other. Peeta makes Katniss strong and Katniss makes Peeta brave. Together they are pretty awesome.
