Neighborhoods Of Bond No. 9; HIGH LINE
Neighborhoods Of Bond No. 9; HIGH LINE By Raphaella
New neighborhoods are created infrequently in New York City. For the most part, every inch of the City is already claimed, so it can be a major feat to turn something old into something "new", or transform urban blight into urban renewal. In this case, the "neighborhood" of High Line is really not a neighborhood at all, but a 1.45 mile stretch (roughly 22 blocks) of abandoned elevated railway. High Line was built in Manhattan's Meatpacking District in the 1930's and was part of a major infrastructure project called the "West Side Improvement" that relocated freight train traffic 30 feet above ground, thereby protecting the streets of Manhattan from dangerous trains in an area that was once largely industrial. High Line stretches from the Hudson Rail Yard at 34th Street through the West Chelsea gallery neighborhood where it continues on to Gansevoort Street in the Meatpacking district.
The City of New York initially authorized the predecessor street-level railroad tracks in 1847 which ran down West Side south to Canal Street. As soon as train traffic started running on the new line, accidents began occurring among trains, pedestrians and horse carts. There were so many fatalities that 10th Avenue was called "Death Avenue". The "West Side Cowboys" of Manhattan rode in front of the trains waving flags to alert pedestrians (in case you could not actually hear a train coming at you!).
In 1929 the New York Central Railroad, the City of New York and the State of New York created an agreement called the "West Side Improvement Project", which included the High Line. This project eliminated over a hundred street railroad crossings. The cost in 1930 was over $150 million, the equivalent of more than 2 billion dollars today.
Originally, High Line was directly connected to factories and warehouses, allowing trains to actually drive right inside buildings and stop to drop off deliveries. Items such as milk, meat, produce and manufactured goods could be delivered via the High Line without causing additional street-level traffic. In the 1950's, 1960's and into the 1980's parts of the High Line were torn down and trains stopped running on the tracks. Private property owners lobbied for the complete demolition of the High Line. Friends of the High Line, a community-based non-profit group, was formed in 1999 when the historic structure was under threat of demolition. Friends of the High Line worked in partnership with the City of New York to preserve and maintain the structure as an elevated public park and initially opened to the public on June, 2009.
High Line is the first public park of its kind in the United States. Today, this special elevated environment is a "streamlined and linear" version of a park, truly unique and enchanting with meandering concrete pathways, naturalistic plantings and lovely views of Manhattan. High Line is described as an "aerial walkway lined with concrete planks and railroad tracks, landscaped with meadows, wetlands, and wildflowers, hovering 30 feet above street level".
High Line literally hums with over 210 species of perennials, grasses, shrubs and trees. In Section 1 of the High Line, plants and flowers were chosen for their hardiness, sustainability, and textural and color variation, with a focus on native species. Many of the species that originally grew on the High Line's rail bed were incorporated into the park's landscape.
Currently, only Section 1 of the High Line is open, but "Friends of the High Line" will hold its Section 2 Opening Spring Benefit on Monday, May 16, 2011. Upon completion, High Line will be a mile-and-a-half-long elevated park, running through the West Side neighborhoods of the Meatpacking District, West Chelsea and Clinton/Hell's Kitchen. It will feature an integrated landscape, designed by famous landscape architects.
The movement towards resurrecting High Line has produced amazing results. Such a resurrection prompted Bond No. 9 to create a scent in honor of this new "neighborhood". Leave it to Bond No 9 to create a fragrance that captures this urban landscape of wildflowers and grasses, mixed with "Tenth Avenue energy and Chelsea gallery style". - Raphaella
High Line: A Place, A Scent but So Much More
By Christine Lewandowski
It's been a year since Bond No 9 launched it's, named after a New York neighborhood like no other, High Line fragrance. Laurent Le Guernec is the perfumer for this, as well as New York Oud, Washington Square, Cooper Square, Andy Warhol Montauk, Harrods, No 9 Perfume, Astor Place, Brooklyn, Chelsea Square, New York Fling, Park Avenue and So New York. The notes in High Line are unlike anything else in the line or any other fragrance I know: bergamot, purple love grass, Indian rhubarb, red leaf rose, orange flower water, tulip, grape hyacinth, sea moss, teakwood, musk & bur oak.
This spring floral marine can brighten remaining days of winter with its uplifting citrus, crisp top notes. Every now and then you smell a rhubarb note in a scent. As anyone who has eaten a strawberry & rhubarb cobbler knows, rhubarb is best when mixed with something sweet. The combination of the sweet of the orange flower water, in particular, with the perfect sour-crisp of the rhubarb sets High Line apart in the "fresh" fragrance selection.
The dry down of High Line reveals a little more of its unisex character. Sea Moss, teakwood, musk and bur oak combine to create a depth of long lasting richness. The dry down remains "fresh" smelling, an outdoorsy clean, without a trace of soapiness.
It took me a year and repeated wearing to "get" High Line. At first sniff, it's easy to miss the subtle beauty of this fragrance and its singular dry down.
Close your eyes imagine yourself sitting on a lovely teak bench. It's just been raining, a light mist. The flowers are just beginning to push their way out of the earth, through the mulch. There they are the little purple flowers that you remember as a child. They were always some of the first spring flowers to bloom and they look like upside down bunches of grapes. Fast forward a bit to late spring, the citrus trees are blooming; the air is perfumed with their sweet scent. The last, but most fragrant of the tulips are standing tall and stately. Odd. You don't remember tulips having a scent but these do and it's amazing! Add this memory to the earlier one.
Summer now, seated on "your" bench, the roses and fragrant grasses are blooming now. A light breeze carries the scent of the ocean, which is nearby. You open your eyes and standing in the sunshine is a friend you haven't seen in years, leaning against an oak tree.
High Line is a beautiful place, a New York neighborhood unlike any other. It is also a beautiful scent but it takes time to reveal itself. If you spend some "quiet time" with High Line, like I did, you may find it a place filled with memories, lovely, fragrant memories. - Christine Lewandowski

2012 Free Agency: Star rating is out of five. Age listing as of Sept. 1, 2012.
Follow me @walterfootball for updates.
Drew Brees, QB, Saints. Age: 33.
Franchised by Saints
Drew Brees just turned 33, but he's still going to be one of the elite quarterbacks in the NFL for a few more years. He holds Dan Marino's record for most passing yards in a single season, but he'll need another Super Bowl ring to go down as one of the all-time greats. He'll be franchised.
Peyton Manning, QB, Colts. Age: 36.
Signed with Broncos (5 years, $96 million)
It's still hard to believe that Peyton Manning is a free agent. Manning would be a five-star player if it weren't for his neck injury, so I'm docking him half a star. Knowing Manning though, it's hard to imagine him not playing like an All-Pro next year in an attempt to prove that he can still perform at the highest level.
Matt Flynn, QB, Packers. Age: 27.
Signed with Seahawks (3 years, $26 million; $10 million guaranteed)
When Matt Flynn threw for 480 yards in a Week 17 win over the Lions, he passed for more yardage than any Packer quarterback in a single game. There's a limited sample size, but the potential is clearly there. Flynn will be a starter somewhere next season. It's also worth noting that Charley Casserly, the man who spent early picks on David Carr and Dave Ragone, doesn't think too highly of Flynn. This could very well mean that Flynn has Pro Bowl potential.
Alex Smith, QB, 49ers. Age: 28.
Re-signed with 49ers
Alex Smith threw for 3,150 yards, 17 touchdowns and only five interceptions in his first season under Jim Harbaugh. His two fourth-quarter drives against the Saints were a thing of beauty.
Jason Campbell, QB, Raiders. Age: 30.
Signed with Bears
Look up the definition of mediocre in the dictionary, and you'll probably find a picture of Jason Campbell. Campbell has been really consistent in his two years with the Raiders, completing about 60 percent of his passes and throwing slightly more touchdowns than interceptions.
Brian Hoyer (RFA), QB, Patriots. Age: 26.
Re-signed with Patriots (1 year, $1.92 million)
The Patriots like Brian Hoyer, and I do too. I'd like to see him get a chance to start somewhere in 2013. For now, he'll continue to back up the Golden Boy.
Josh Johnson, QB, Buccaneers. Age: 26.
Signed with 49ers (2 years)
Josh Johnson has some nice skills and the upside to potentially make some team believe that it can groom him into a starting quarterback.
Kyle Orton, QB, Chiefs. Age: 29.
Signed with Cowboys (3 years)
Kyle Orton has proven that he can be a solid game-manager when surrounded by a quality supporting cast. That's all he is though.
Shaun Hill, QB, Lions. Age: 32.
Re-signed with Lions (2 years)
Shaun Hill has proven himself as one of the top backup quarterbacks in the NFL.
Dennis Dixon, QB, Steelers. Age: 27.
Dennis Dixon has some upside as a potential starter. He's a good backup, at the very least.
Billy Volek, QB, Chargers. Age: 36.
I can't say I understand why the Chargers cut Billy Volek. He can still serve as a really reliable backup quarterback and passable spot-starter.
Rex Grossman, QB, Redskins. Age: 32.
Re-signed with Redskins (1 year)
Rex Grossman has proven himself as a capable backup quarterback, but he commits too many turnovers to be a starter.
Chad Henne, QB, Dolphins. Age: 27.
Signed with Jaguars (2 years)
Chad Henne has some solid physical tools, but it appears as if he'll never have the mental aspect of football down. Still, I'd like to see what he could do with some really good coaching.
Josh McCown, QB, Bears. Age: 33.
Re-signed with Bears (1 year)
Josh McCown was pretty impressive in two starts late in the year. He's a solid backup quarterback.
Donovan McNabb, QB, Vikings. Age: 35.
Constantly overrated by the media, Donovan McNabb is fat and lazy. He's also a bad guy to have in the locker room because he throws teammates under the bus and seldom takes the blame. He could be a good backup quarterback if he were willing to accept the role. But his enormous ego will get in the way of that.
David Garrard, QB, Jaguars. Age: 34.
Signed with Dolphins (1 year)
David Garrard is an old quarterback with back problems. He can be a good backup and a decent spot starter, but no team should count on him to be under center very much in 2012.

Finally an analyst who knows what they're talking about. To say that Tebow can't play quarterback is pure retardation. He clearly proved he can succeed. He may not do it the way it's been done before, but it doesn't really matter how he gets it done.
Tebow > Henne / Gabbert by far

Tebow definitely shouldn't be a tight end or running back or whatever what he should be is a third string quaterback with the Patriots who will kind hide him from the media and just let him be your scout team quaterback who the only snaps he ses is in the pre season

Tebow's amazing playoff victory had only 10 completions! Only 10 passes out of 21 were completed. That's a lot of help by your receivers to get you to 316 yards. His rushing attempts were the same number as completions. He had 2 games for Denver where he was a primary passer. Against Detroit he threw 39 times for 18 completions, 172 YDS, 1 TD, 1 INT. Then against Chicago he threw 40 times for 21 completions, 236 YDS, 1 TD, 1 INT. So his yards are sure low compared to his 10 completion playoff game, huh? His receivers helped a lot that game. By the way he was terrible against New England the next game.

Tebow sucks he won a game completing 3 PASSES so it certainly wasn't him to win them the game and Demaryius Thomas' runs after catches in the playoff game won it for them not only did he turn the opening overtime play into a 80 yard touchdown but also did other times his speed bailed out Tebow's terrible throws multiple times so don't be a dumbass Walt he SUCKS

we went from 1-4 with orton to 8-8 with tebow. that is a solid 7-4 record with a squad that had the worst combined record for the last two seasons in the league. i will never forget that season - it was one thrill ride with. to win seemingly lost games in the final minutes or in the overtime was way more fun that the last season with manning when the game was over after the first half most of the time. i don't care if his throws weren't pretty or accurate - the game was fun and exciting to watch. he might not win it all but for a team that is not going to win it all anyway - i am talking to you jaguars - you can have a season of your life with tebow in 2013

tiger blood
oil pressure problem
My oil pressure on my truck is showing low on the gauge. (95 f150 5.8l)
The needle does not move wether it is idling or running down the highway. Yesterday it was in the middle of the gauge in the normal, now it is to the left of it. Sometimes it junps right back up to normal though, then drops back down and stays there, even though there is no change in speed or rpms Any ideas? |
October 3rd, 2010, 09:58 PM | #4 |
Senior Member
remove the wire from the sender and ground it...see if the guage goes all the way up, or only goes halfway. Ford has used a retarded setup that used a resistor on the back of the guage so it would only go to the halfway point, and then used an oil pressure switch (not a sender, it is either on or off)
Im not sure if your truck would have that or not If it does, it can easily be converted to a true guage by removing the resistor and replacing the oil pressure switch with a sender...wiring all stays the same |
October 4th, 2010, 03:47 PM | #5 |
tiger blood
Well I removed the wire and the gauge dropped right off, then I attached it to the ground and it was right where it was yesterday. Horray!
So i need to un-solder the resistor on the gauge cluster amd replace the switch on the side of the engine? it is a 95, if that helps |
October 5th, 2010, 08:57 AM | #7 | |
It's located behind the p/s pump,on the block, if you are having trouble locating it. |
October 6th, 2010, 05:39 PM | #11 |
Ford/Chevy guy!
Its a Ford thing, the oil pressure gauges always go bad in the 90's Fords. Same thing happend to my 95, 89, and my 94 F150 and the gauge would be all over the place. I would just get a manual gauge.

The Cincinnati Enquirer sports department named its spring athletes of the year Tuesday, June 28. Among the six athletes named Enquirer Players of the Year, three are from Lakota East High School.
Those three include junior pitcher Michael Conrad (baseball), senior pitcher Sara Pearson (softball) and junior singles player Zach Mueck (tennis).
"They're part of what has been the best athletic year ever at Lakota East, from the fall to the winter to the spring," said Lakota East athletic director Richard Bryant told the Enquirer. "All three were absolutely dominant in their sports."
Conrad was one of the two aces on the Thunderhawks' baseball team that captured the state title earlier this month. He finished the year with a 5-1 record, a 1.11 earned run average and tied a Lakota school district record with 115 strikeouts. His performance this season has already landed the junior pitcher college offers. In June, Conrad has received offers from Indiana University, the University of Toledo and Ohio University.
Senior softball pitcher Sara Pearson led Lakota East to a No. 1 ranking in the state coaches' poll, a 28-3 overall record in 2011 and East's first-ever Greater Miami Conference championship. Pearson, who will continue her career at the University of Memphis, won 22 games, struck out 264 batters and held a 0.30 ERA this season. She also hit six home runs, had an on-base percentage of .434 and a batting average of .363.
Junior singles player Zach Mueck finished as the state-runner up in Division I state singles tournament for the second consecutive season. Mueck, who recently verbally committed to Xavier University, finished the year with a 29-1 record. His only loss was in the state final to Evan Bechtel of Toledo St. John's.
The other three spring Enquirer Players of the Year included La Salle teammates Ethan Bokeno and Rodriguez Coleman (boys' track and field) and Withrow junior D'Monami Gardner (girls' track and field).

Chael Sonnen calls out Vince McMahon
UFC head honcho Dana White recently revealed that WWE head honcho Vince McMahon actually wanted to bring the two companies together for a megafight of epic proportions. No, not CM Punk vs Georges St. Pierre or The Undertaker vs Cain Velasquez. No, a fight between... McMahon and White.
Thankfully, the McMahon-White showdown doesn't look like it's going to happen in the squared circle or the squared, err, octagon. However, that didn't stop UFC on Fuel from having some fun at the expense of McMahon's proposed challenge. Particularly, UFC star Chael Sonnen, who rips McMahon after this tale of the tape (beware Vinny Mac's power strut!). My favorite line from Sonnen - "Kamala the Ugandan Giant will win an Olympic gold medal in pole vault before you step into the boss' wheelhouse."
While it's easy to dismiss McMahon challenging White, don't underestimate him. Anyone who can win the Royal Rumble, the WWE Championship, and defeat The Undertaker in a Buried Alive match should be taken seriously.

The one who stands up for the woman being caned is "anti-Muslim," right?
Is it accurate to describe those who opposed Nazi totalitarianism in World War II as "anti-German"? How about those who fought against the Stalinists in the USSR during the Cold War? Were they "anti-Russian"?
Such arguments are absurd. Anyone who would suggest it would [...]

We were looking for place to have
enjoyable Saturday evening dinner. We chose this because it appeared to have a variety of options. We were delighted with our choice. The food and service were excellent. We will definitely go before we return to the northeast at the end of March."
Dined on 3/8/2014
Great and the waitress's go
overboard to make your visit great"
Dined on 3/2/2014
We had a groupon and had not been
here in years. Our tuna shooter appetizer was excellent as was my salmon entree and key lime pie.. My husband's Tuna entree was quite fatty in the middle but perfectly prepared. They have happy hour 4-7 so that was great! Our server was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Seating choices were indoors, outdoor covered bar or outdoor. We would definitely consider returning."
Dined on 2/21/2014
there were only 3 other tables
with people at them. so my reservation was a mute point. we were told it was under new management when i asked where the menu i saw online was.. almost everything was gone so if you were going calamari or steak or something dont bother. they have a couple appetizers, pizzas, 4 or 5 sandwiches and 4 or 5 entree's. it has now become a pizza place basically. the spinache and artichoke dip was VERY bland. we ordered soup and our entrees. they brought them out to us at the same time on the same tray! thank you for making us choose which food to let go cold so we could eat the other! my flat bread was burnt with very little tenderloin on it. my husbands grouper sandwich was missing stuff and was VERY small."
Dined on 2/16/2014
Sorry to say we didn't stay! Very
disappointing in the menu, went somewhere else"
Dined on 2/16/2014
The food at Edison was great, the
only flaw in the experience was the waitress seemed to have forgotten about our request for drink refills. I finally had to go up to the maître de to inquire as to the delay, after we had basically finished eating even though we had indicated halfway through the meal that we would like refills. At that point, the manager did come over to our table and got things back on track."
Dined on 2/11/2014
We went to the Edison for the
first time for dinner. Web site said smart casual for dress. The hostess had no idea the web site said that. And she didn't know what that meant. We were over dressed. It was prime rib night. Also a wedding was going on. I asked for mine medium well. My husband had medium. When mine came out it was so well done. It looked like they put it on the grille and just burned it. I sent it back and he was suppose to bring one that looked like the one my husband had. He came right back out and the piece he brought me was so rare, there was a pool of blood on the plate from them putting the sauce on it. I did not eat it."
Dined on 2/8/2014
I had the opportunity of meeting
up with some long ago friends. And we all had an excellent experience. We had a great time talking and reuniting. we were able to communicate with not a lot of loud noises. The food was wonderful. The service was excellent. I would definitely go back again and recommend this restaurant to visitors and locals."
Dined on 1/21/2014
The restaurant was historical, as
you passed through the main doors with pictures of Edison, Firestone and Ford to name a few of the turn of the century giants. There was an inside dining section and an outdoor one as well that overlooked the golf course. As it was a pleasant day we chose to dine on the outdoor terrace which was covered and had additional gas heating lamps for added warmth. Our server greeted us promptly asking for our drink order and returned in a decent amount of time to take our food order. The food was enjoyed by myself and my wife. The other guests seemed to be having a good time, many laughing in conversation. The price was very reasonable and I would recommend it to anyone in the area, both visitors and residents."
Dined on 1/18/2014
We met friends for a late lunch at
what clearly was quite a place in its day. Food was okay but not special. The pot pie was a disappointment, I'm sorry to say."
Dined on 1/15/2014
Food was very good. Service was a
little slow to start but was very good after a short wait."
Dined on 1/15/2014
Went with 5 other friends and
everyone split different things. I shared the blackened grouper sandwich with slaw and fries and it was good. Two others shared the steak flatbread and said it was good, but the steak wasn't very tender and there wasn't much of it on there. They enjoyed the atmosphere outside though, except there was smoking at the next table and it was blowing in our direction unfortunately."
Dined on 1/13/2014
We sat inside but it was very busy
on the patio! We shared 2 bottles of wine and tomato mozarella flatbread and a cup of soup which was delicious! Great server!"
Dined on 12/27/2013
The staff was great, the food was
delicious! We were a party of 6 and we each enjoyed our meal. I ordered a pizza & when it came out it was a little well done but edible. About 2 bites in the manager comes to the table with a brand new pizza and says he wasn't happy with the first one & had the cook remake it. All 6 of us were blown away by the service. We would all definitely eat here again! I had asked when making the reservation for a quit corner for our special occasion, we had a great corner booth which was very conducive for what we needed to accomplish. It was easy to see everyone around the table & the seating helped to keep the conversation flowing. Can't wait to go back!"
Dined on 12/28/2013
What a wonderful place for lunch!
We only had half sandwiches and soup (the soup was excellent) and then shared wonderful desserts! Would be interested in coming back for more of a meal! We had a huge padded comfortable booth, music was excellent and a perfect level. Service was great. Can't wait to come back!"
Dined on 12/10/2013
Took out of town friends here and
it was embarrassing. Our waiter was new and was training another new waiter. We were informed the Prime Rib would be ready in 30 minutes, which was fine. We ordered an appetizer which was grouper nuggets which were good. We then ordered and got our meal in a normal amount of time. The salads were ok, prime rib just ok. Not something I would ever order there again, pretty gristle but cooked as requested. The waiter had to be reminded constantly to fill our drinks, asked why no bread and he didn't know why, asked for a pina colada and said they are not making drinks with that machine anymore. After spending nearly $100 for a meal it was a real bust. Won't go back."
Dined on 12/7/2013
table was ready when we arrived.
Very friendly service and great atmosphere. We sat in the bar area which was perfect for us. Friend said they would come back"
Dined on 12/5/2013
Food was great. Arrived at 5pm to
make sure we got the special PriMe rib dinner and had to wait almost an hour as the beef was still cooking!"
Dined on 12/7/2013
We dined at the Edison because we
were going to see the lights at Edison's Winter Home. We were a little disappointed that when we called for the reservation no one told us the only place we could dine that evening because everything else outside and inside were booked for private parties. It was quite noisey in the bar area adjuctant to where we were sitting in the library."
Dined on 12/6/2013
I made reservations for The
Edison, based on the photos and menu that were attached to open table. I was prepared for a nice, romantic dinner with my wife. Instead we were seated at the bar area. I asked if there was any other seating, but to my surprise, this was it. The banquet room is what was featured, and it was hosting a wedding. Fine, we can deal, I guess. The bar was a bar, nothing special about it. It was loud and filled with people. The menu looked nothing like the menu online. I was very upset about that, but again I could deal with that. If you want a steak, this is not the place, it wasn't an option. I was prepared to order a stuffed flounder or the salmon. I ended up with a burger. Its a bar not a restaurant, be prepared."
Dined on 11/15/2013
On our way to theater we stopped
for a quick bite, mentioning to hostess and waitress that we needed to be out by a certain time in order to make it to the theater on time. Both could not have been more pleasant and accommodating!"
Dined on 11/9/2013
We were very unhappy with the
whole experience. The iced tea tasted very strong, the server said it shouldn't be because it came out of a machine,we sent it back anyway. My husbands fish was so strong tasting, he sent it back and ordered a pizza instead. My dinner came out before my salad,I asked where it was,then another server brought it. I would have thought that the salad would have been first. My meal was decent tasting, but the overall experience was poor. I really expected the manager to not charge for the second choice (the pizza ). We had a reservation and were seated , at first, in the noisy bar. We asked to be moved and we were."
Dined on 11/2/2013
The restaurant was pretty empty
when we arrived so the service was excellent. It started to fill up and the noise level went up, but not too loud. The menu was limited and what we had was good, but not sure this is a place we would go to often. It really does seem like a place you would go after a round of golf."
Dined on 10/9/2013
If you want to go there for
brunch, call ahead to make sure are actually going to serve brunch that day. Also be sure not to go on game days as tables are reserved and service staff is preoccupied."
Dined on 9/29/2013
this was our second time at the
edison and we enjoyed it almost as much as the first. we were seated in the bar area and it was more "energetic" than the area we were in previously. i had the steak and lobster special and it was reasonably priced although my steak was cooked a tab more than i preferred. my wife had the seafood pasta and found out that she didn't care for the pesto sauce. this was not edison's fault it was just her taste buds. we had the calamari for appetizer and it was wonderful. we definately will be back."
Dined on 9/21/2013
Service was slow. Waited long
periods of time between courses. When food arrived it was cold. Too many other places around for me to say I would go back to this one. The only positive was the guy who kept the drinks full. He was very nice, kind, and on top of his game. If he was actually waiting us it would have probably been a better experience."
Dined on 9/10/2013
We had never been here before and
were very glad we tried it. We went here rather than the country club that we are members of and were happy with the food and prices."
Dined on 8/31/2013
We ate at the Edison Restaurant
for the first time and we definately will be back. We had the calamari for appetizer and the pot roast and also the shrimp provencale. Neither my wife or I could fault any of the food we had. The flavors were very good, and we wish we had been to this restaurant months ago. We have only moved to the area recently and enjoy dining out, and this restaurant is on our list to return to."
Dined on 8/28/2013
Have eaten here a number of times.
Great location and structure. Has been a hit or miss in the past. Service was very good. However, the food.... Soup was cold and tasteless. Out of a can would have been better. Salads were the bare minimum. Salmon was fishy and undercooked."
Dined on 7/21/2013
Several visits this year. Food is
always good and service is excellent."
Dined on 6/23/2013
I took my wife to the Edison for
her birthday. We found the Edison to be quaint and different enough to make it a "special" place for a quiet dinner without too much fuss by staff. We had a table overlooking the golf course. The dining dress was anywhere from golf-course-casual to office-chic. But the best part was the selection and quality of the food. I had the Filet Mignon topped with Gorgonzola butter and crispy onions. My wife enjoyed chicken stuffed with boursin cheese, prosciutto, spinach, with a roasted red pepper demiglace. Both were excellent! With wine and salad for each of us plus sharing a dessert, the check was just about a dollar per year of my wife's age. We will definitely return to try the other menu selections."
Dined on 6/19/2013
The menu was wide and fantastic.
They paced the crowds so that the food area never felt congested. We sat outside and enjoyed the view of the golf course, would not have wanted to listen to the cheezy entertainer inside. Will definiately return to try the regular menu."
Dined on 5/12/2013
Outdoor sitting was great. Amazing
view of the gulf course and very friendly staff"
Dined on 5/8/2013
The salad bar at the end ofthe
table, where the deserts were, had empty plates and plates with half eaten deserts, and the cup of water for the ice cream scoop was full of ice cream floating in it, yuck. Price of $39 was ridiculous. The salad bar still had breakfast foods, and we arrived there at 5:30!"
Dined on 3/31/2013
Great hot spot. Our favorite
dining restaurant prior to taking in a play at the Fla. Rep. Most entertaining dining rooms. Food is good, but prime rib last week was a little tuff. But all in all, have always had a great time there. Drinks are priced reasonably. Could develop some more low priced appetizers. Outside patio dining looks like a blast. will be back."

Great for Chicago Bears and

We always have a good meal at The
Edison. We ate out on the patio overlooking the golf course with family from out of town. We can always count on a good meal at reasonable prices."
Dined on 3/19/2013
I was not overly impressed on my
first visit to the Edison. I chose the stuffed flounder and it was cold along with the asparagus. My wife ordered shrimp over linguine and the shrimp was way over done. Others at the table had the fish fry and a seafood dish which they loved. The waiter Ms. Jordan was outstanding always looking or asking if there was anything she needed to do for us. Yes I will give it another try, every restaurant has an off night. I would recommend not sitting in the bar area to much noise, you have a hard time talking. The back dinning room our the pitio looked like the place to be. They have a great special occasion priviate dinning room."

Prime beef was just a little tuff,

We brought my mother-in-law to the
Edison for a pre-theater dinner. Arriving at the restaurant promptly at 5:30 pm, we were seated almost immediately. However, we were ignored for at least 10 minutes before ordering, we waited 45 minutes for our dinner and we started fretting that we would be late for our performance. Our food was good, but the stress and noise negatively affected what should have been a pleasant dining experience."

MultiCare Seeks Lifesaving Matches
(TACOMA) - The MultiCare Regional Cancer Center and MultiCare Tacoma Family Medicine are sponsoring a Bone Marrow Drive, Tuesday, October 20 from 10am-2pm in the Katterhagen Resource Center in Tacoma General Hospital 3rd floor of the L wing.
"The ultimate goal of the drive is to reach out to our diverse community to assist in identifying possible donors," said David Nicewonger, Administrator for the MultiCare Cancer Center. "People in our community can help patients with debilitating diseases by just being tested on October 20th."
90% of donor matches are found within the same racial or ethnic community and only two out of ten patients find the bone marrow match needed to save their lives. This test will identify if a person is a possible match for a patient who is waiting for this life saving donation.
A bone marrow transplant delivers healthy bone marrow stem cells into the patient. It replaces bone marrow that is either not working properly or has been destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation. Bone marrow transplants are used for certain leukemia's and cancers as well as to replace bone marrow when treatment for cancer has destroyed the individuals own bone marrow.
Anyone 18 or older can be pre-screened. The screening takes approximately 10 minutes and only requires an oral swab of the cheek. No pre-registration is required.
For more information, call 1-800-351-7955.

Lightspeed on Your Desktop
You can change the dimensions of the default cube object by selecting the menu option File→New lattice (Figure 2). You can set how many balls will be drawn in each of the three dimensions. You also can change the smoothness factor when the object is rendered on the display. In this case, it will look like what is shown in Figure 3.
Figure 2. Setting the Number of Vertices in Your Object
Figure 3. Altering the Smoothness of the Rendering
You also have the option of loading your own 3-D object, either in 3D Studio format (*.3DS or *.PRJ) or in LightWave format (*.LWO). This new object is what will be rendered, and the optical effects will be applied to this. You can save a snapshot of a particular object at a particular speed in either PNG or TIFF format. You also can export to an SRS file format (Special Relativity Scene). This is a format used by the program BACKLIGHT, which is a specialized raytracer used to illustrate relativistic effects. This lets you generate much higher resolution images of the affected object.
In the Objects menu item, there are options for drawing supplementary objects. By default, the floating grid is selected. You also can select coordinate axes, identifying the x, y and z axes. You can select the display of a bounding box for your object as well (Figure 4).
Figure 4. Displaying Axes and a Bounding Box around Your Object
Additionally, you can animate the scene by selecting Objects→Animation in the menu. This pops up a dialog box where you can select the starting and ending points on the x axis and the loop time in seconds (Figure 5). The scene then will be animated until you click stop.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.

Take the TGV to Reims and be met by the driver guide for a private Champagne private tour.
Your driver will greet you when you arrive by train in Reims. If you're staying in the Champagne area, the driver can pick you up at your Reims or Epernay hotel. Your luxury Champagne tour can be customized to suit your wishes, so tell us where you'd like to visit and what you would like to see.
Your private Champagne tour should visit two Champagne houses (one in the morning and one in the afternoon). Select from Moet and Chandon, Veuve Cliquot, and Ruinart or you might choose to enjoy a visit to Bollinger, Krug, Henriot, Pol Roger, Piper & Charles Heidsieck or Perrier-Jouet. Many clients like us to book a tasting in a small private Champagne house for a particularly unique experience.
The art of blending the three grapes is the essence of Champagne. Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay are the three grapes used for Champagne and how these three wines are blended is specific to each wine maker. During your Champagne tour, you will understand more about the magic of sparkling, the long aging of the bottles in the cellars, lying the bottles horizontally (sur latte) or upside down (sur pointe). You'll learn about the techniques of riddling and disgorgement. You will better understand the differences in the Champagnes and why you prefer one more than another.
For lunch, we can book a table in a little brasserie or bistrot unless you'd prefer a gourmet restaurant. This will determine the time for the afternoon Champagne visit appointment.
The Champagne Country can also includes some special sightseeing and landmarks because we want you to enjoy the entire region. The Cathedral of Reims, St Remi Basilica, Chapel Fujita Museum of the Surrender are several places of interest.
Entrances and meals are not included in the cost for the private tours, but we will be able to let you know the tasting costs.
The Champagne tour is a memorable day (or days) with bubbly Champagne enjoyment in the region of Reims and Epernay!
Contact us for pricing for your private Champagne tour from Reims.

Not working…
Stop mentioning that EnterFrame event.. i don't think has anything to do with the current needs. Here is needed a Timer that will fire on every 0.5 seconds(depending on speed of the fall).. and every time that timer triggers you must check if the block has hit the floor or other block. If hit… break apart the block… and check if a line or more are full. If lines detected… pause the timer, animate the line destruction and move down the rest of the structure. ...
Or you can use a tweening engine to move the block down and with a complete check everything, no loops required
It is not difficult at all just make it grid based and after every move check if there are full lines if there is one remove it and slide everything above it one tile down
Personally i don't like 2 things, a) it is as2 and b) it is timeline code but he that is totally different discussionDo you know what michelsteege? I'll let you write on all my files pages whatever you want to explain to buyers why them should buy your files instead of mine and why yours are better… I won't flag your comments… you will be welcome Cheers
Oh no it is not that don't worry it is just what i like
pff what a discussion about a free file, try typing something like free flash file in google you find many so what is the problem?
Personally i don't like 2 things, a) it is as2 and b) it is timeline code but he that is totally different discussion
nver had a crash, try buying the programm instead of downloading it (just kidding)
there are coming new files every day so if you need to send a mail for every file you get a lot of mails in a week
But there is a new items feed that you can subscribe to and every author has one to
people are dying every day
You can make the object in a holder give the holder the filters and tween the object + give the object the events
A sad day for Envato…. Good Bye User #1….. (why is Ryan going? If I may ask. )
He is going to sell stock files for a living i think

Drug information provided by: Micromedex
Eltrombopag is used to treat thrombocytopenia (low platelets in the blood) in patients with a blood disorder called chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). This medicine is used after a splenectomy (surgery to remove the spleen) and other medicines, such as steroids or immunoglobulin, have not worked well enough. Eltrombopag is also used to treat thrombocytopenia in patients with chronic hepatitis C along with interferon therapy. Platelets help clot the blood, so a person with thrombocytopenia may have bleeding problems. Eltrombopag works by stimulating the bone marrow to produce more platelets.
This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription.

Dream Man: A pair of tight red speedos can barely contain this smoldering stick of dynamite. He stares straight into the camera, teasing and taunting, rubbing his fine body. The speedos stretch snugly in front hinting of the treasure it possesses, and from behind, it caresses his bubble butt. He slips out of the confining swimsuit, boldly manhandles his hard cock and shoots a load of cream. All for our enjoyment; all for our pleasure.

Accident protection for the prudent. The Microplane® Cut Resistant Glove allows for safer food preparation with its uniquely constructed, machine washable, light weight and comfortable design. Made from man-made fibers, the "one size fits most" glove molds quickly to fit either hand.
We recommend that you use this glove for all your food preparation requiring sharp tools. Keep in mind that you still have to avoid the sharp edges just like you would if you weren't wearing it. The benefit comes in the case of accidental contact with a sharp edge. It may still damage the glove, just not your hand.
Sizing: Use a tape measure to find the circumference of your hand around the palm area. This is close to your actual glove size. For example, 8" is equal to a size 8 glove. Sizes can vary among different manufacturers and styles. For easy size comparison, refer to the above chart.

See more...Twenty-five Florida state parks have received 50 AmeriCorps volunteers in a program known as ANT or AmeriCorps Non-native plant Terminators. They will join the fight to remove invasive plants and help restore parklands to their original historic habitat. AmeriCorps is a 10-month program of national service for young people who received living stipends and an award of money at the end of service to be used towards their education. The two young men at Lake Louisa State Park were already interested in pursuing a career in the park services and this program will give them experience working along side park rangers. Large amounts of acreage at the park were once orange groves and cattle range and the state has a long-range plan to return it to its original sand hill habitat.

My dog Ben is probably frustrated because there is little damage he can do to such a well-protected creature. They were once collected for their meat and more recently declined because their habitat is desirable development land, high and dry. We have named this tortoise "The Old Woman" since my relatives have seen her for decades, grazing on our ancestral sand hill. It is an easy animal to photograph as they work their way across the grass but if they are spooked, they can close the distance to their burrows surprisingly fast. There are dozens of tortoise burrows on the hill and perhaps dog Ben is jealous of the tortoise's great digging ability.

Press Releases
WINFIELD, Ill., March 10, 2010 - Central DuPage Hospital (CDH) is one of just 47 hospitals and medical institutions in the U.S. taking part in an important National Institutes of Health (NIH) funded research study to evaluate the efficacy of a new approach to treating deep vein thrombosis (DVT). "This NIH sponsored study puts CDH in the company of facilities like Cleveland Clinic, Georgetown University Hospital and Stanford University Medical Center," said CDH Research Director Julie Jones, MBA, CHRC. "Many people don't realize that non-academic hospitals can qualify for research like this because very few community hospitals have the capability to do so. CDH has 32 trials open right now and working with the National Institutes of Health is quite an accomplishment."
In late 2008, the Surgeon General issued a National Call to Action to warn Americans about the dangers of blood clots. This call to action specifically noted the importance of studying clot-busting treatments such as the procedure being researched at CDH as part of the ATTRACT (Acute Venous Thrombosis: Thrombus Removal with Adjunctive Cather-Directed Thrombolysis) Study. The ATTRACT Study will help determine if DVT can be treated safely and effectively by injecting the clot-busting drug tPA directly into the clot through a catheter. Researchers hope that this treatment may relieve DVT symptoms faster than other treatments and also prevent the vein damage that leads to post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), a painful and chronic condition.
"CDH is very pleased to be working with the National Institutes of Health," said Joseph Schneider, MD, PhD., FACS, principal investigator and one of the three physicians on the medical staff at CDH leading the ATTRACT Study. "Research is one way we can participate in improving care. We're excited to be a part of making our future generations healthier."
The ATTRACT Study research conducted at CDH is sponsored by the NIH via the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, and it will be led by Schneider, Nilesh Patel, MD, and Stanley Kim, MD, all partners in the Central DuPage Physician Group's Vascular and Interventional Program. This team of physicians from the CDH medical staff is working to determine if a new, catheter-based treatment procedure is an effective and safe way to remove a blood clot.
