Novato (/nəˈvɑːtoʊ/ nə-VAH-toh) is a city located in the North Bay region of the San Francisco Bay Area, in northern Marin County in the U.S. state of California. Novato is located about 10 miles (16 km) north-northwest of San Rafael,6 at an elevation of 30 feet above sea level (nine meters).1 The 2010 U.S. Census estimated the city population to be about 51,904. Novato is about 30 miles (48 km) north of San Francisco on U.S. 101.
What is now Novato was originally the site of several Coast Miwok villages: Chokeche, near downtown Novato, Puyuku, near Ignacio, and Olompali, at the present Olompali State Historic Park.7
In 1839 the Mexican government granted the 8,876-acre (35.92 km2) Rancho Novato to Fernando Feliz. The rancho was named after a local Miwok leader who had probably been given the name of Saint Novatus at his baptism.8 Subsequently four additional land grants were made in the area; Rancho Corte Madera de Novato to John Martin in 1839, Rancho San Jose to Ignacio Pacheco in 1840, Rancho Olompali awarded in 1843 to Camilo Ynitia, son of a Coast Miwok chief, and Rancho Nicasio, by far the largest at 56,621 acres (229.1 km2), awarded to Pablo de la Guerra and John B.R. Cooper in 1844.9 Novato, along with the rest of California, became part of the United States on February 2, 1848. Early pioneers included Joseph Sweetser and Francis De Long who bought 15,000 acres (61 km2) in the mid-1850s and planted orchards and vineyards.
The first post office at Novato opened in 1856; it closed in 1860, and a new post office opened in 1891.6
The first school was built in 1859 at the corner of Grant Avenue at what is today Redwood Boulevard.
The original town was located around Novato Creek at what is now South Novato Boulevard. A railroad was built in 1879, connecting Novato to Sonoma County and San Rafael. The area around the train depot became known as New Town, and forms the edge of what today is Old Town Novato. The current depot was built in 1917, but closed in 1959 and is largely derelict. The depot consisted of two buildings, a warehouse and a station. The warehouse burned twice in the intervening years and was torn down in late 2007 to make way for a Whole Foods development, while the station is still standing.
A Presbyterian church, still a landmark in Novato today, was built in 1896. Until 2006 it housed a number of city offices, but was vacated that year due to safety concerns and condemned. The church has since been renovated.
The Great Depression of the 1930s had a marked effect on the area as many farmers lost their land. After World War II, Novato grew quickly with the construction of tract homes and a freeway. As the area was unincorporated much of the growth was unplanned and uncontrolled. Novato was finally incorporated as a city in 1960.2 One of the most important venues of the time (1960 to 1965) was "Western Weekend". Beard growing contests sponsored by Bob's Barber Shop and many other odd activities helped to bring this community together.
A program titled A Century of Gentle Seasons, The History of Novato, was released on DVD in 2009 and tells the varied stories of Novato's vibrant community.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 28.0 square miles (73 km2). 27.4 square miles (71 km2) of it is land and 0.5 square miles (1.3 km2) of it (1.85%) is water.
Major geographical features nearby include Mount Burdell and Mount Burdell Open Space Preserve to the north and Big Rock Ridge to the southwest. Stafford Lake to the west is a secondary water supply for Novato, with the Russian River in Sonoma County to the north supplying most of the city's water. Novato includes ten of Marin County's open space preserves: Mount Patrick, Rush Tyler, Little Zack, Verissimo Nico, Indian Page, Deer Eamen, Indian Umen, Ignacio Valley, Loma Jon and Pacheco Valley.
Novato has warm, mostly dry summers and cool, wet winters.
Official weather observations were taken at Hamilton Air Force Base through 1964. Average January temperatures were a maximum of 53.6 °F (12.0 °C) and a minimum of 38.7 °F (3.7 °C).

Today, the nearest National Weather Service cooperative weather station is in San Rafael, where records date back to 1894. Compared to records from Hamilton Air Force Base, San Rafael is generally several degrees warmer than Novato and has an average of about 10 inches (25 cm) more rainfall. The record high temperature in San Rafael was 110 °F (43 °C) on September 7, 1904, and June 14, 1961. The record low temperature was 20 °F (−7 °C) on December 26, 1967.11

Eldorado Peak/Inspiration Glacier

Everett Climbing
Marcin Porwit
From Roush Creek Basin, proceed up snowfields and Eldorado Glacier just left (W) of rocky ridge. Follow this to broad flat area of Inspiration Glacier at about 7,500'(good camps near rocks). Traverse Inspiration Glacier around to N and follow broad snow covered ridge to top (8,868'). Summit ridge is a spectacular knife-edge of snow. Finding the log crossing at the parking lot, and the climber's trail on the other side, is very important. This climb is considered fairly grueling and strenuous because of the elevation gain over uneven ground. An early start on the approach may help. The trail is strictly a climber's trail, but has improved in recent years. If the weather is good, the views are tremendous. Because this area sustains heavy use, do not camp in Eldorado Basin. Glacier may remain passable into very late season.
Everett students get priority for registering until 07/15/2013.

Suggestions given to Zimmerman
Contrary to what recent editorials in The Charleston Gazette have claimed and the mainstream media has reported, the facts clearly show that George Zimmerman did not disobey instructions from the non-emergency dispatcher. When questioned by Assistant State Attorney John Guy, non-emergency dispatcher Sean Noffke explained that for liability reasons, he could not give commands, only suggestions, and that as a civilian, not a law enforcement official, he did not have the legal authority to order or command George Zimmerman to do anything.
Zimmerman was already outside of his truck watching Trayvon Martin when dispatcher Noffke asked Zimmerman, "He's just walking around the area? What is he doing now? Which way is he running? Which entrance is that he's heading towards?" Dispatcher Noffke further requested of Zimmerman "Just let me know if this guy does anything else." Dispatcher Noffke clearly wanted George Zimmerman to observe Trayvon Martin's behavior, but when dispatcher Noffke realized Zimmerman may have left his truck in order to maintain visual contact on foot, he suggested, "OK, we don't need you to do that" and Zimmerman complied by saying "OK."
Dispatcher Noffke testified that Zimmerman did not actually disobey an order as media reports have portrayed. Dispatcher Noffke further testified that Zimmerman could have misunderstood the intent of his questions and that may have prompted him to follow Trayvon Martin. That being said, it is not against the law to follow and observe someone, especially in this circumstance.
We should not accept someone's political agenda as a substitute for the truth.

You can play James Bond too in this female version of the cool and agile spy that every guy wants to be and now every girl can be him or her too.

He has abandoned the technical wizardry of the Ring—the 3-D video projections, the enormous rotating set—and pared back his style. Read More

Kay Deakins, who was in her wheelchair and on oxygen, witnessed the incident, according to the suit.
Another trooper then "forcefully grabbed Kay's left shoulder and ripped her out of her wheelchair and slung her into the corner of the kitchen counter," according to the lawsuit. "Mrs. Deakins' breathing tube was torn out of her nose. ... Mrs. Deakins landed on the kitchen floor onto her stomach."
A trooper then put his foot on her neck and grabbed her arms to handcuff her, according to the report.
The trooper then told Kay Deakins to, "get your whore ass off the ... floor right now!" according to the complaint.
"Mrs. Deakins advised ... 'I can't walk, that's why I'm in a wheelchair,'" according to the suit.
When Kay Deakins couldn't get up, the trooper, "became enraged and incensed at Mrs. Deakins, forcefully grabbed her handcuffs and dragged her backwards towards the back door and out onto the back porch ... [and] down the steps despite her constant pleas to stop."
The trooper then dragged her to his cruiser and slung her inside, according to the lawsuit.
Anthony Deakins says he did not reach for or try to disarm the officer, as the State Police claim.
"Basically, I was tackled after I dropped the screwdriver and on my stomach with my arms under me," he said. "That's when [a trooper] punched me in the mouth."
The troopers then took computers and cameras from the home, according to the lawsuit. Harry Deakins says they've yet to get those back.
Troopers then took all three of the Deakinses to the Princeton detachment, according to the lawsuit.
Harry Deakins said he was sprayed with pepper spray and cursed at by the trooper driving him to the detachment.
The lawsuit claims that during the car ride, an officer said to Harry Deakins, "you're a Nazi skinhead, racist Jew boy..."
Once at the detachment, two of the troopers beat Harry Deakins in the garage area, as the others watched, according to the lawsuit. They stopped long enough to turn off the surveillance cameras, according to the suit.
One trooper hit, kicked and choked Harry until he nearly passed out, according to the lawsuit.
Then another started twisting his nose until it bled on the floor, shouting Jewish slurs all along.
One of the troopers then told Harry Deakins his family needed to move out of town or he was "going to come back and burn your ... house down and kill every one of you!"
He was taken to the Princeton Community Hospital emergency room and treated for his injuries.
A photo of Harry Deakins, which he says is his mugshot from that night, shows him in a neck brace and with his face severely bruised. The mugshot provided by the West Virginia Regional Jail Authority shows Deakins in an orange jumpsuit with no visible signs of distress. He says the jumpsuit photo was taken later and replaced the photo from that night.
Internal investigation
In February, Sean Deakins was living with his father, mother and brother. His wife filed a domestic violence petition against him and came to the Deakinses' home to take back her car. State Police and sheriff's deputies parked along the road while she came to the house, the family says. Instead of just taking her car, he said she also took another vehicle that Sean had recently sold to Anthony.
Anthony contacted the State Police, who he says eventually agreed through checking the car's VIN number that the vehicle was his. But, he says, they refused to help him get it back.
It was then -- on Feb. 8 -- that he gave a statement to the Princeton detachment that resulted in the internal investigation. Anthony Deakins provided a copy of a letter from Capt. Gordon Ingold, head of the department's professional standards division, dated May 6, 2010.
"A review of the facts surrounding the incident has uncovered no chargeable actions on the part of the involved member and this case has been closed as unfounded and no further action will be taken in this matter," Ingold wrote.
Kay Deakins, who was admitted to the hospital last week after suffering a seizure, has been seeking psychological help since the April 22 incident. In an interview earlier this month she said all the State Police had to do was to identify themselves at the beginning and they would have been let in. There was no need for violence, she said.
"It's crazy," Anthony said. "One said he could shoot me between the eyes and get three days off."
The rough treatment by troopers has caused Kay to have two surgeries and multiple hospitalizations, according to the lawsuit. Medical records provided by the Deakins family show that Kay was treated for a wound on her right leg on May 21, 2010. In the medical report, it states that the visit is a follow-up to a visit from where she was injured when, according to the report, "the cops were after her son and the cops dragged her and she got a wound on her right gluteal which is draining."
Harry Deakins also provided a patient evaluation for himself from April 22. The medical record states the emergency as "alleged assault" and lists injuries to his face, neck, chest, back and shoulder.
Harry Deakins spent 84 days in jail because of the Virginia warrant. He also pleaded guilty to one count of battery and was given time served while there. He says he has no recollection of the plea deal because of his head injury.
"I don't remember any of it," he said.
Anthony and Kay Deakins also originally accepted plea deals, which were tied to one another. In the deals, Anthony entered a guilty plea without admission of guilt, thus getting the charges dropped and lowering his exposure to jail time. Kay would have pleaded guilty to one count of attempting to disarm a police officer and paid a fine. But all that fell apart when the State Police failed to return the computers, Anthony said.
Kay's trial is set for Feb. 18 in magistrate court, said Mercer County Prosecuting Attorney Scott Ash. Anthony's trial is set for March 8 in Mercer County Circuit Court, he said.
"I'm not guilty, so I'm not doing that," Anthony said of his original plea deal.

Is there any more efficient way to rock nail color than with a gel manicure? They last for twelve-plus days of chipless wear with a ridiculously ultraslick finish. They can make it through a two-week tropical vacation and still emerge a perfect ten. And, now that loads of nail companies sell at-home kits, they don't even require a trip to the salon. No question about it, the fever for gel manis is stronger than ever. But at the end of the day, your nails may not be.

"When it comes to gel manicures, we don't know if it's the chemical in the polish that's being applied to the nail, or if it's the manner in which the polish has to be removed (by soaking each nail for ten minutes or more in acetone), but we do know that gel manicures cause a decrease in nail density," says Assistant Professor of Dermatology at NYU and dermatologist Chris Adigun, who also oversees NYU's Nail Disorder Clinic. She cites a recent University of Miami study in which ultrasound and confocal reflection microscopy was used to measure the depth of the nail before and after gel manicures.
A thinning nail plate is just the half of it: Possible carcinogens associated with UV drying lamps used in some gel manicure procedures can do further damage to hands and nails. (The jury is still out on whether UV dryers are harmful - a widely publicized study from 2009 that showed two women contracted cancerous lesions on their hands after exposure to UV dryers has since been scientifically refuted.) What's more, for some gel manicure recipients, allergies to the bonding chemical in the polish (the same stuff used in Krazy Glue) can cause nails to peel and split after removing gel polish.
RELATED: A Hairy Situation: Is The Brazilian Wax Over?
So, what's the best way to battle premature aging of the hands, exposure to possible carcinogens, weakening of the nails, and still get your 12-day shine on? "The biggest issue is hydration," Adigun says. "Your hands get exposed to a lot of physical and chemical trauma. You want as much hydration as possible before you get a gel manicure and after you remove your gel manicure." She suggests using skin creams, like Dermalogica's Multivitamin Hand and Nail Treatment, which also battles premature aging with antioxidants such as vitamins A, C and E. A broad-spectrum sunscreen in SPF 30 or above, such as Julep's Daylight Defense For Hands and Face, is also a must, and not just before you slide your hands under UV or LED drying machines. To provide an added layer of protection against photoaging when getting gelled, snip the fingertips off a pair of thin gloves and wear them at your next appointment.
Finally, even with careful nail hydration and hand protection, Adigun recommends taking an occasional break from back-to-back gel manis to hydrate and repair nails. Dare to go bare for the sporadic week or two, no matter how unglamorous it may feel; it'll keep your tips hard as, well, nails.

God, no. Total misread. Read what I said "people who support the program AND ITS LEADERS through thick and thin." That's the side I represent. Show me where I said people who want Dooley fired don't support Tennessee. I didn't say that, and once again, I appreciate the downvotes for expressing a frigging opinion. I don't downvote people for expressing an opinion, but that's how intolerant this place is getting to be, I guess.
If you insist we talk extremely frankly then, and really tell it like it is, consider this. It is generally accepted that if Dooley wins out, he stays. Hart has said he is looking for improvement, and 7 wins is a definite improvement over 5. This is the record many rational fans, and even the rational non-fan Wes, expected going into this season. So if Dooley being fired is your top priority, then you are without a doubt, rooting for Tennessee to lose at least one of the next three games.
You can't have it both ways. Tennessee finishes 4-0 and the coach gets fired? I just can't see it.

I already stated that if he wins out, I don't have a problem with him coming back. The people who don't want him back today, I suspect could believe that he should be gone even if he wins out (they don't want to see UT lose a game), because they just don't think bringing him back, 7 or 8 wins or not, is good for the program, and many of them have listed several coaches over the last few weeks they believe are better coaches and more qualified to lead UT back to elite status. You may disagree but that doesn't make you "rational" and them the opposite. It just makes you in love with your own opinion. That's not abnormal. Most of us are in love with what we think.
For instance, my opinion, which is totally rational, is that you "should" only bring Dooley back if you're willing to make sure he goes into the homestretch of recruiting with four years left on his contract and can give a statement of support to him and assure recruits and their parents that he's your coach long-term unless he falls off a motorcycle into a ditch with his girlfriend/assistant. Right now Dooley only has three years left on his contract, a bunch of SEC losses, a loss to Kentucky, the perception that he can't take less talent (as the better coaches have been known to do) and win a game he shouldn't, a questionable D-coordinator, a lackluster resume, and an AD who hasn't been willing to throw Dooley verbal support. I don't think going 7-5 will get him an extension and I didn't in June. If that's what it takes for an extension and he reaches that mark, well bring him back. I have nothing to say about it, because it gives him a chance, even if I believe he won't succeed, of moving the program forward. Once again, although I don't think you "should" bring him back without an extension and a real opportunity to move the program forward, I understand if you bring him back with 7 wins.
Now if he goes 8-5 with a bowl game win against good competition, that might get him an extension and vote of confidence, a chance at a better recruiting class and some momentum going into next year, among other things. However, the situation is more complicated than 7-5 he comes back. He should only come back with an absolute opportunity to move the program forward and 7-5 alone doesn't make that happen. He needs an extension, IMO probably needs a new D-coordinator (which means you have to pay Sal a buyout), is there a D-coordinator out there that is willing to coach under Dooley, and who is he going to lose on offense to the draft and expired eligibility all have to be considered.
Also 7 wins is only an improvement over 5 if you believe that quantity of wins is the only thing to be considered. You have to view his record last year through the lens of the Kentucky loss. Beating Kentucky this year isn't going to be perceived as an improvement. Additionally one could argue, at 7 wins, that the only thing that improved was the schedule since we dropped Arkansas and added Missouri. There are alot of different ways to look at this and yours isn't the only rational view.

We really don't disagree here at all. If I have upset you, I am sorry. I certainly did not mean to imply anything you said was irrational. I am just truly weary of these constant threads on Dooley's future. I am perfectly willing to have Hart decide it, at the proper time. If it is after a loss before season's end, fine. If it is at season's end, also fine.
The only outcome I couldn't possibly stomach would be for Tennessee to hire the likes of Bobby Petrino, who lacks class and a moral compass.

EU Court Orders Microsoft to Pay up Most of Record Fine
Jason Mick

Microsoft is not happy
Operating system giant Microsoft Corp. (
) became the first high profile victim of aggressive European Union antitrust enforcement (but it would
not be the last
). Slapped with
almost $2B USD in fines
, the company was lashed
for browser bundling
and other tactics viewed by the European Commission regulators as anticompetitive.
appealed the fine
, but the results were less than what it was hoping for. The appeals body -- the General Court of the European Union
[PDF] this week its decision to cut the €899M fine to a mere €860M ($1.1B USD), a reduction of €39 (~$48M USD).
A Microsoft spokesperson
it was "disappointed with the court's ruling."
With the appeals exhausted, it now appears Microsoft will have to pay up to preserve the billions in yearly business it gets from the EU. The ruling is the latest setback for Microsoft in Europe.
The company has suffered from plenty of bad PR in Europe in the wake of UK court proceedings which detailed a
sexual harassment by managers
. The incident led to several resignations and several civil suits, placing Microsoft squarely in the crosshairs of the EU state's active tabloid industry.

RE: I think I fugred it out...
Read my posts. Microsoft killed netscape by releasing their browser as FREE after they charged $19.99 at frys etc (it was in plus pack too if memory serves for $19-29 can't remember). I sold it to customers retail for $19.99 (in a freaking Internet Explorer box separate from the Operating System! For sale at Compusa and Computer City also). Then they went whole hog and gave it away until Netscape bled to death. Get it yet? Look up the case instead of spouting this crap. They gave it away free because they could afford to until Netscape died.
Notice the only thing in your PC that hasn't dropped in price is that $300 OS ($135 OEM, but that's been the same for 20 years too...same as when I sold it back to 1997! for NT pro). This is because there is no competition.
As BZD said, why do you think they spend time developing this and media player for FREE? Are you really this dumb or just work for MS or Apple? They dev it so others have a high barrier to entry and can keep everything on windows. It perpetuates their monopoly.
Again BZD was correct in stating that if most people get something in their OS they just live with it and will only download something else if they HAVE TO. Even then, they usually don't even know how! I can't tell you how many PC's I saw come back for a virus squashing, or OS re-install, or hardware upgrade 2-3yrs later (or just a vacuum cleaning as I offered to MY pc customers for $10 yearly) and only find the exact software I sold them on it. They had NOTHING else but a new version of quickbooks...LOL. That's it aside from maybe a new AV app (but most just kept paying renewals...even afraid to change app vendors...JEEZ!). I can categorically state that BZD is telling the truth after serving PC's to people for 8 years.
I just tried to buy a laptop from Dell with NO OS. I claimed I'd install Linux 3 seconds after I got it in the door and out of the box, and also that I had a Microsoft Action pak subscription (10 lics of everything for $299 offered to all business in cahoots with MS) with a good 4 lics of everything left and had NO NEED for Win7. They said they couldn't strip it because of Microsoft agreements, even if I never intended to even boot windows 7. That's $100 of the cost of the laptop for NOTHING! I really will not use that license. But I can't get out of it. Palm died (can't give away software for free forever unless you're extremely successful at something else...LIKE SEARCH). Rimm - need I say anything about rimm? Toilet. Nuff said. Linux is made by people, most not interested in the money. Redhat makes money on SERVICE because you can't charge a dime for REAL FREE OPEN SOURCE software. You do understand what OPEN SOURCE is right? Windows isn't open source, IE isn't open source - neither was netscape - but charging $29-39.99 for something MS can give away for free until your dead just bankrupts your company.
Name another company worth less than a billion that can create and keep a browser going for free indefinitely. You know it costs to produce IE right? MS/Apple have a lock on their segments (windows/appstore etc). Only a HUGE company can start a browser war (google). Business and customization are the only thing that keep firefox/opera relevant.
See my other posts. Microsoft is a convicted monopoly in the USA as of 2000. They paid 20 states off to get around it AFTER being GUILTY! IT cost them about 400mil. So I guess USA took the money grab first, what you're seeing now is just inflation on the same case we already found them guilty of. It takes YEARS to convict anyone with billions. Guilty, appeal, guilty, appeal etc until the other people are so broke or already dead so you only pay a pittance of what you should. Netscape was dead before the verdict on a case that started in 1994! Well, the real case started circa 1998 (Netscape went from 90% market share to 1%...OUCH. SIX years later is was too late to save them. Heck they were almost dead before it even made it to court! PULL YOUR HEAD OUT OF THE SAND! IIS was used in the same manner. Do you really think a company can give away server software for free forever? Netscape couldn't. I can't remember the name of their app, but IIS killed it for the same reason IE killed Netscape Navigator.

Week 4: Bills vs. Jets
Sunday, Sept. 30th
1:00pm ET
Stats Matchup
The disastrous start to the 2007 season got worse for the Bills in New England last week when they lost
Paul Posluszny
for the season and
J.P. Losman
for a couple of weeks. It is hard to think of a team this devastated with injuries this quickly. It also isn't good that it happened to a team with questionable depth to begin with. The Jets come to town as the Bills return home for the next month. Maybe some home cooking and finally facing a team that isn't one of the best in the league will help them at least challenge for a victory.
Buffalo (0-3)
N.Y. Jets (1-2)
Ralph Wilson Stadium
Ian Eagle and Solomon Wilcots
Jets by 4
Bills lead 51-42 (Bills 1-0 in playoffs)
Bills Won 1
Last Meeting:
Bills 31-13 in New Jersey (2006)
Jets Offense:
Rush (23rd); Pass (27th); overall (28th)
Jets Defense:
Rush (20th); Pass (28th); overall (28th)
Bills Offense:
Rush (18th); Pass (32nd); overall (32nd)
Bills Defense:
Rush (32nd); Pass (32nd); overall (32nd)
Where do we start? The Bills are by far the most banged up team in the league and it got worse last week.
J.P. Losman
was lost for at least two weeks with a grade 1 sprained MCL against the Patriots.
Paul Posluszny
is the latest player to go on IR after breaking his forearm against New England.
Terrence McGee
missed the Patriots game with a rib injury suffered against the Steelers and may be questionable this week as well.
Coy Wire, Ryan Denney
Keith Ellison
all may be back after the bye.
Ko Simpson, Kevin Everett
Jason Webster
are also on injured reserve.
The Jets meanwhile seem very healthy. They had no major injuries come out of their win over Miami last week and entered the game with no injured inactives. CB and kick return specialist Justin Miller is on injured reserve with a knee injury.
Bills Daily Injury Page
RB Marshawn Lynch vs. LB Jonathan Vilma:
Former Bill Willis McGahee owned his former college teammate. Lynch needs to have the same level of success if the Bills are to have a chance. Vilma is playing out of position a bit in the 3-4 defense of the Jets, he's a better fit in the 4-3.
QB Trent Edwards vs. FS Erik Coleman:
Edwards gets his first NFL start and the offense should open up a bit with the extra preparation. Coleman will be watching the QBs eyes looking for a chance at some interceptions.
LB John DiGiorgio vs. RB Thomas Jones:
DiGiorgio is now back in his normal position after the season ending injury to Posluszny. Jones torched the Bills last year with the Bears. No reason to think he won't do it again with this banged up bunch.
WR Lee Evans vs. CB Andre Dyson:
This could be the week that Evans breaks out. The Jets defensive backs aren't that strong and Dyson hasn't done too much so far this year.
DE Aaron Schobel vs. LT D'Brickashaw Ferguson:
Schobel needs to be a playmaker or else the depleted defense doesn't have a chance. Ferguson is a top talent tackle but Schobel's experience should give him an edge.
DB Ashton Youboty vs. WR Jerricho Cotchery:
Youboty needs to start playing tighter coverage on the receivers. Cotchery is off to a very good start and could have a big day if Youboty doesn't step up.
When The Bills Have The Ball:
After a full week of practice, Edwards should be able to run more of the offense. Look for the Bills to spread the Jets out on occasion but they will probably look to establish a ground control running game to keep the beleaguered defense off the field.
When The Jets Have The Ball:
Which way should they attack the Bills defense? They can do it on the ground or through the air with success. Look for a power running game from Jones with mixed in slant patterns over the middle that has been very successful against the Bills this year.
Can things get worse for the Bills? Probably not but never say never. They should get a bit of a lift for being back home and playing a sub .500 team. The fact remains because of all the injuries and a lack of talent they are the worst team in football. The Jets are better then their record and should come ready to play. Look for this game to not be a blowout like the last two weeks but the result will be the same:
Jets 23, Bills 14
Season Prediction Record: (2-1)
Season Record Against The Spread: (3-0)

Stare at the center of the spinner for 30-seconds and then immediately look away from your monitor at your hand. What'd you see? Because I saw my fingers going all nitrous "WAH WAH WAH" on me, and then vomit coming out from under my nose. After that, my eyes got watery. MAGICALZ!

Diner Reviews
My girlfriends and I wanted a fun
lunch with great drinks after lobbying on the hill all morning. I ordered a raspberry martini. It was nice and stiff. The wines by the glass are all excellent options. I loved the humor in the menu and ordered the "Moderate" burger. Absolutely delicious and an excellent price for a fancy place. Split our checks with ease."
Dined on 3/6/2014
very nice atmosphere and courteous
staff. would recommend it to family and friends. I plan to return soon"
Dined on 2/28/2014
I visit this restaurant because of
its convenient location relative to Verizon Center. Service is always good, but food is only sometimes exceptional."
Dined on 2/22/2014
Menu is small unless you ask for
sandwich menu which has great options. The service could not be better. It is just very quiet with no atmosphere. The food is fantastic."
Dined on 2/15/2014
Decided to try Social Reform
Kitchen despite the so-so reviews. We were disappointed. The restaurant was practically empty and we would have expected better service. The food was good and unfortunately was overshadowed by the lack of other patrons and the lackluster service. We won't return."
Dined on 12/7/2013
Could not ask for better service
and clam chowder was great to start off our meal on a freezing night!"
Dined on 1/24/2014
I have been to the Caucus Room on
several occasions with groups; the food and ambiance were always good. I was pleasantly surprised by the more upbeat yet casual Social Reform Kitchen and Bar. The Restaurant Week menu choices were excellent and varied, and the food was simply outstanding. When you want an upscale but not stuffy lunch Social Reform is the way to go!"
Dined on 1/17/2014
I ordered the LAME DUCK CHICKEN
for $14.00. It's a chicken sandwich with provolone cheese, at least that's what it was supposed to have on it but came out with some kind of whipped ricotta cheese instead, spinach and a mushroom madeira sauce. I love ricotta cheese but not an inch high on the sandwich and it actually made this taste nasty and dry. The food looked good but didn't really have much taste. I've been to this restaurant a couple of times now and both times I wasn't impressed with the meal. I guess I should have stayed away from an item that used the word "Lame" in it. Lame is giving it to much credit and for 14.00 for a chicken sandwich and a handful of green on a plate (salad) is way to much for this and tasted terrible."
Dined on 1/16/2014
Enjoyed the quiet ambiance and
amazing steak. Wait staff was very attentive."
Dined on 1/10/2014
The service was terrible compared
to my previous experiences. I was also surprised when I ordered the halibut and later found out through the waitress that it wasn't available. Why wouldn't she have known that when she was taking our order?"
Dined on 12/13/2013
We had a group of eight and were
able to be seated in one of the back dining areas where is was quite enough for us to hear each other talk and celebrate an anniversary. Great wine selection and the food was outstanding as always."
Dined on 12/11/2013
If you go - don't go! I have
wanted to eat here for years and the food was very good but the service was horrible. Bill our waiter was beyond rude and upset my table so much that we left before dessert and we ended up getting only 1 glass of wine and we are so glad we didn't buy the bottle like we were thinking because that would have made us stay longer and we didn't want to do that. When I asked the waiter Bill when I asked for another bread basket he leaned over the basket to see if it was empty and when he saw that it was he picked it up and actually tkts and grumbled then walked away and told on us to the hostess who gave us the nastiest look when she walked pasted. I've never been treated so rude. We will never return & tell all"
Dined on 12/7/2013
I took a young person to celebrate
her 22nd birthday. She was so very impressed with the restaurant and all that it offered. Our meal (the braised ribs) were delicious. They melted in our mouths. Fantastic selection. The service was very attentive. They made the birthday girl feel very special and I was most appreciated (which was reflected in my generous gratuity). I highly recommend this restarurant for great food and especially for special occasions. Thank you!"
Dined on 12/6/2013
My girlfriend and I had lunch
here; the food was good, if unremarkable. The person who made the menu had some fun with the names of a few sandwiches, and while everything was high quality, nothing was particularly memorable."
Dined on 10/29/2013
We visited prior to a show at the
Shakespeare Theatre Company, and the entire staff was so lovely and accommodating. We were also celebrating an anniversary, and everyone was lovely - the dessert they brought was spectacular and made our evening so special! Excellent oysters, knowledgeable staff, great wine list, made for a great night. We will be sure to return!"
Dined on 10/26/2013
was formally the Caucus Room
(which moved to G'town). Very American-style menu. Braised ribs, seared scallops, crab cakes, a pasta, and mussels. The specialty of the house is steaks. I had a NY Strip which was cooked to perfection. the garlic green beans were fresh and had a nice snap. Also tried the short rib, which was tender but a little dry. Also tried the scallops which were perfectly cooked as well and had a dcent black rice on them. good portion of rice. Service was friendly and the MGR was fast to assist. Would eat there again, perhaps lunch. If you're in the Chinatown area, try it, bc it isn't a tourist place"
Dined on 11/14/2013
Sad. No character. Uncomfortable.
Empty. Website was misleading. Lights need to be dimmed. A lot. Restaurant made me sad because it was so empty and had no life and it seemed on the brink of going out of business."
Dined on 11/16/2013
Good food, good service, a calm
and inviting place"
Dined on 11/9/2013
This is a wonderful venue for a
group lunch. Great food and drink. A little lively with clientele, yet quiet so you can discuss business as needed."
Dined on 10/31/2013
The oysters were excellent, with a
very nice salsa that complemented the oysters very nicely. A nice change from the usual sauces with oysters. The halibut was somewhat over done. and the fresh fettucini had a bland sauce that was a disappointment. It really needs some TLC with some spices to give it more body. Overall, it was overpriced for what we ordered. Perhaps their special steaks are better. However, I would have ordered the hanger steak, except the waiter said it was not marinated . Hanger steaks cry out for great marinades. Also, the excellent cuts of steaks are very big and very expensive. (e. g., a 22 oz. rib eye for $48.) An option for a smaller cut at a smaller price would be an excellent alternative."
Dined on 11/4/2013
This place is always a great
choice for lunch. Its dining area is seperated by "rooms" which gives it a cozy feel and lets you get that quiet type place where you can actually have a nice business lunch and hear all your guests. The menu has a wide variety of options, so it's sure to please everyone. I love their burgers, but my favorite has always been the various salads with steak which has been cooked just right. The service is also great and paced well, so you don't feel rushed. I have taken several guests there and it's always my go to place."
Dined on 10/31/2013
We all really enjoyed our dinning
experience. The wait staff was helpful and very informative. Food was timed perfectly. Everything was excellent considering we made reservations only 20mins before arrival. Highly recommended to visit Social reform Kitchen (aka Caucus room)."
Dined on 10/26/2013
Considering it's the heir to the
Caucus Room, I was very surprised by how unlike the Caucus Room the food at Social Reform Kitchen and Bar was. My first visit since the change. The steak frites did not even meet the good grade - meat was tough and frites were thick discs of fried potatoe - bad on the palate and not well seasoned. What happened to the thin cut fries the Caucus Room used to have? What happened to the top notch beef there? The soup was average - nice presentation reminiscent of the Caucus Room, but the taste and thickness were not there. Service however was gracious and very good - just like the old days."
Dined on 8/23/2013
One of the best meals I've had in
DC in quite sometime, however, the ambiance needs to be revisited."
Dined on 8/17/2013
I planned this for a work dinner.
They were very accommodating as I had to alter the reservation a few times and once we arrived were very attentive. We had our own room, took our time and they were great. I felt bad that the place was pretty dead but we really enjoyed it. The food was delicious as well. I had the scallops which were cooked perfectly."
Dined on 8/8/2013
No one greeted us on this warm
evening. We had to ask people in a crowded room reserved for a noisy party how we might find someone who could find us a table. After a host finally walked by we approached him and the staff was very accommodating and apologetic about the air conditioning needing repair in the dining area. We were kindly moved because into this warmer space, however, because the cooler bar area where we were first seated was deafeningly loud. The food was VERY good."
Dined on 6/22/2013
When we arrived we waited at the
front for about 10 minutes before finally giving up and going to the bar to ask if there was a hostess. Eventually we just sat in the bar where literally everyone else was (there was 1 table sat in the dinning room when we arrived). Despite obviously not being busy servers were rarely seen in the bar area leaving the one bartender to fend for herself. It took a long time to get drinks and place our order. The bartender was perfectly nice but just had a lot of guests to attend to without much help. We were actually trying to get to an event nearby and ended up being late b/c it took so long to get served. Food was great and the drinks were very good but it definitely took longer than it needed to."
Dined on 6/15/2013
A coworker and I went her for a
business lunch so we were on a tight timetable. We were both impressed by the menu choices but unfortunately had some issues with service which we found to be odd since it was not busy. If you do come here for a business meeting perhaps the strategy is to state that up front here?"
Dined on 6/6/2013
Excellent atmosphere for a lovely
lunch. Excellent food and there is something for everyone. Good for taking guests."

We came to Social Reform on March
19 because it was on the "recommended" list for Ford's Theater. We have been back three times since. It is a great location; easy to get a reservation, good service, good food -- and a great bar. My husband is especially impressed with the martinis. My only complaint is that is difficult to remember the name of the restaurant. I keep going back to the Ford's Theater website to find the link."
Dined on 5/18/2013
While visiting DC we had dinner
before attending a musical at the Ford Theater. The proximity was one of the reasons we chose The Caucus Room. Great service, and wonderful ambience, although my steak was over cooked it was still edible and my guests loved their dinners. When in DC again I would definitely go back again."
Dined on 5/13/2013
Staff was great. Bartender makes a
great Old-fashioned, which I hold as a barometer for a bar program... Burger was delicious. Bar crowd is non-existent after happy hour, definitely better to visit Mon-Thurs if you're feeling social..."
Dined on 5/10/2013
Our party of 6 had wide and varied
requirements that the new menu satisfied. From salads to sandwiches to meals to desserts, all enjoyed their food choices. The dessert sampler of sorbets & gelatos was excellent! The service provided by Cooper was great as well as relaxed and fun. The staff even went out on the street to hail a cab for one of our party and did not give up until a cab stopped. Everyone enjoyed the evening very much! I will go back!"
Dined on 5/4/2013
Service was great at first, had a
blip of 45 minutes where we were ignored, and then he came back and all was good. There weren't a whole lot of people there for a Saturday night, so I don't know why he was so scarce for a while. Regardless, food was wonderful and the beer selection is pretty darn good."
Dined on 5/4/2013
We had lunch at Social Reform
before a Matinee at Ford's theater. They had a good business crowd and service was very accommodating. We had the burgers - big, juicy, quality meat, and messy! I had to ask for an extra napkin. That is a good thing when you eat burgers. It was nice to have the salad substitute rather than potatoes. It was more than we could eat, so we did not have dessert."
Dined on 4/25/2013
We were a little late arriving for
our dinner reservation and had to be at a show in an hour. Our waiter understood our predicament and did his best to get us served quickly. Food was fantastic. We had a few drinks with dinner so our bill was rather expensive. But it is always a treat to come here."
Dined on 4/19/2013
Nice place to get a bite to eat
prior to a show at Fords theatre. Offered discount on parking which was an added bonus. Nutty Irishman for after dinner drink is fabulous!"
Dined on 4/10/2013
Service was very good. friendly,
able to get us out in time for a show without rushing. Basil martini was very good. Salmon and ceaser salad was very good. However, the pea soup had literally no flavor and the rockfish that is their specialty was supposed to be seared. Although not spoiled, the fish appeared to have been sitting under a heat lamp for hours. The outside was not seared, rather tough, rubbery and dry. We did not make an issue of it...just won't return."
Dined on 4/12/2013
I had lunch there once many years
ago but had not been back after the name had changed. But, we really enjoyed it. Food was wonderful and service was very good. I would go back again."
Dined on 4/9/2013
This was a great oasis from the
7th St and E St NW eateries in WDC. It's just a block away but the difference is enormous. We'll be back - the food was very good; nice drinks menu - fun but not too complicated. Service was overall prompt, but one server was helpful with food and drinks tips, and another ("we work as a team") was not. A response such as "All the beers / wines / appretizers / desserts are good" is not enlightening or engaging."

Yeah it sucks, they sort of pulled the tropins and Neurobalance out from under us unfortunately. Neuro was my favorite, but we have a ridiculous number of people requesting Oratropin. We don't own the patent though so there really isn't anything we can do.

Wow that's gay i loved that stuff
this is truly sad - I was really looking forward to another round of Hexatropin (LOVE that stuff!)
Argh.. after all the good stuff I heard about oratropin (relieving joint pain especially!!) I come to find that oratropin doesn't even exist. Wish I knew about this back a few years ago!
Yeah this was back in the day.

There is nothing more worth it than finding and booking an incredible photographer to shoot your wedding. After all, those images will live on your walls, in your albums and in your hearts for decades. Get the perfect photoBut the journey to ensuring you get the most out of your photography can be tricky business. Not to fret. The experts from Style Me Pretty have you covered and we have mapped out some of the most important things to consider when booking a photographer. Most important? Make sure you love him or her. Study upUnderstanding the type of photography that you are drawn to is really important. Do you love a real journalistic vibe? Do you prefer a more edited style? Perhaps you are drawn to a combination of both styles. Or images that pop off the page with their vibrancy. Or their black and white counterparts. Bottom line? Do your research. Check out blogs and magazines to find the style of photography that you love. Even if you can't call it by name, you can at least describe it to any potential photographer with real examples so that you can ensure that your styles mesh. Photo credit (above): Laura Kleinhenz/DocuvitaePlace value on your photographsIf I were getting married all over again, my photographer would always be my major splurge. I would hire someone that I truly loved and I would skimp on other details. After all, the photographs are going to be your memories. They will be the art gracing your walls, the moments that you look to time and time again. Find someone who you just know will give you the kind of photographs that you will never tire of seeing. If you're on a strict budget, remember that some of the very best photographers are found in art school. Pore over students' portfolios and you just might find the perfect fit. Photo credit: Jose Villa PhotographySet expectations clearlyThroughout your wedding planning adventures, it's so important to set expectations early, especially with your photographer. You should know exactly what you will receive with your package, how much your album will cost and if it's included, what sort of timeline you are both comfortable working around and how long it will take to deliver the photographs. Let them know about all of those shots that are super important to you and about hang-ups that you might have. And try to understand their work style so that you "get it" before the big day. Spending that time ensuring that you and your photographer are on the same page will go far in preventing hiccups and stress that might come otherwise. Photo credit: Laura Kleinhenz/DocuvitaeRelaxYour photographer should want to make you feel as beautiful as you hope to look. So relax and allow them to do just that. A fun engagement session often helps break the ice and invites your photographer to get to know you and your soon-to-be a little better. So on your big day, it feels as if a friend is snapping those pics rather than someone you barely know.

Ilkay Adali sought damages in 1997 from the Turkish government, which maintains effective control over the renegade Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC). She claimed that Turkish or TRNC authorities ordered the killing, but the court said there was not enough evidence to conclude that security agents were involved in the murder.
Adali, a political columnist with the leftist daily Yeni Duzen who opposed the division of Cyprus, was shot to death outside his home in the island's divided capital of Nicosia on July 6, 1996. He had received work-related threats prior to his murder.
The court, based in Strasbourg, France, faulted the investigation. It concluded that there was "no real coordination or monitoring of the scene of the incident by the investigating authorities, the ballistic examination carried out by the authorities was insufficient, and the investigating authorities failed to take statements from key witnesses."
The court said authorities failed to "investigate the possibility that the murder ...had any link to his work as a journalist" and that much of the inquiry "was conducted only after the applicant's case before the European Court had been communicated to the Turkish government."
Officials at the Turkish embassy in Washington, D.C., and the Turkish mission in Strasbourg did not immediately return calls seeking comment. Alice Bouras, a spokeswoman for the court, told the Committee to Protect Journalists today that the government of Turkey has not indicated yet whether it would appeal the ruling.
The court is a pan-European body with authority to override domestic courts when they fail to address human rights abuses. A summary of the Adali ruling is available at: http://www.echr.coe.int/Eng/Press/PressReleases.html.
Some 35,000 Turkish troops are stationed in the self-proclaimed Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, founded after Turkey invaded the northern half of the Mediterranean island in 1974. The island remains divided into a more prosperous ethnic Greek section in the south and an isolated and impoverished ethnic Turkish sector in the north.
Nicosia is also divided in two, with one side controlled by the internationally recognized Greek-Cypriot authorities and the other by the Turkish government.
Turkish Cypriot nationalists who are opposed to reunification of the island periodically threaten journalists in northern Cyprus for advocating greater contact or integration with southern Cyprus.

The Kamppi Chapel of Silence by K2S Architects sits newly built on the corner of Narinkka square outside the Kamppi shopping center. It is the newest, busiest and usually liveliest square and thoroughfare in the city, and until now remorselessly commercial. Meant as a place of contemplation it is a single room made of alder wood planks.
The first time I went I really liked the chapel from the inside, the outside shape I loved but wondered whether the cladding was a little too orange and wondered why the building was not bisymmetrical, the back bow of the building is flatter than the front and I thought this was a little odd.
However passing it by a few times since I have decided I love the shape from all angles and the orange should both weather better in time and do better in the dark winter to come. Definitely one to visit.

A piece of advice................when the Pittsburgh Steelers try to give you something for basically nothing in return, you'd be wise NOT to take it.
Report: Jets' Santonio Holmes unsure if he'll play in 2013
New York Jets wide receiver Santonio Holmes is not practicing with the team during the start of training camp, as he is still recovering from foot surgery in October after a Lisfranc injury.
Holmes injured his left foot in Week 4 last season and needed two operations to repair it. When asked if he will even play this season, Holmes didn't provide many answers.
"I cant answer that question right now," Holmes said via the New York Daily News. "It's the first day of training camp. How are you going to answer that question? They don't know… I had two surgeries. All I can do is rehab right now."
The team placed him on the active/physically unable to perform list and he could be switched to the reserve/PUP list to start the regular season, which would automatically sideline him for the season's first six games. The Jets' season opener is against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sept. 8.
"I want to, but I have to do what the foot says to do," Holmes said. "If it's not ready to roll, it's not ready to roll."

Recipe by REDFIORO
"This alternative to rice pairs buckwheat with bacon to create a meaty-tasting side dish."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 shallots, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 bacon strips, chopped
1/4 cup uncooked medium roasted buckwheat groats
3/4 cup chicken stock
1/3 cup coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
salt and coarsely ground pepper to taste
I used 5 strips of turkey bacon, extra garlic from a jar, 1/2 cup buckwheat and 1 1/2 cups very low sodium organic chicken broth. I left out the parsley and shallots, but added plenty of green onions. The cooking time was still perfect and my husband loved this! Thanks for the new buckwheat recipe (there are not too many off them around)!
I love buckwheat but I wasn't impressed with this recipe. I would recommend adding onion (separately cooked till golden) in the end, because otherwise it becomes mushy.

This recipe rocks!! We are new to the gluten-free thing and this dish was the perfect intro. I had to double the recipe to feed my two pre-teen boys
I accidentally used bulgur instead of buckwheat, but it still tasted delicious. This recipe doesn't make much -- I ate the whole thing for lunch (which is good for me because I'm the only one in the house who'll eat it). I didn't add salt because the bacon and chicken stock had plenty, and I used way more parsley for personal preference. Will definitely make again.
The bacon is so good! Doesn't make a whole lot by our American standards, but this could be a main dish for 2 people. Careful about wolfing this down too fast... the buckwheat is SOOOO filling, you could get a tummy ache! Thanks for the great recipe!
Really good!!! As much as my husband dislike buckwheat, even he admitted that this one is good.
this is pretty good. Definitely a savory side dish. I will make again!
so so
