A word from Neyla
Meet Neyla, the Mediterranean spirit of prosperity, abundance, and success. The restaurant that celebrates her is a treat for the senses and social graces. Both elegant and comfortable, Neyla is inspired by Romanesque Mediterranean villas, and influenced by the myriad peoples who settled in that
wondrous part of the world. Neyla is a delightful mix of exotic cultures, inspired in the homes, hearths and taverns of the rugged land known first as Phoenicia, then the Ottoman Empire, and later the Republic of Lebanon. From nomadic Arab tribes, Ottoman Turks, Egyptians, Greek and French rulers, Neyla's food melds the best of all the Mediterranean cultures. Vegetables, salads, grilled meats and fish are set off by light, and subtly spiced sauces. Coriander, cinnamon, basil, thyme, Turkish pastries, coffee with cardamom and of course the renowned Lebanese mezzas tell the tongue a story of four thousand years of culinary history.

Diner Reviews
Dined at Neyla on a Saturday and
was able to secure the reservation earlier in the afternoon that day. The restaurant is very dark, and the sound system loud, think crowded bar scene loud. Service was prompt and professional. I had a mint/lemonade slushy drink that was very good, a bit sweet, but good enough that I ordered another. Our dinner consisted of many of the small plates which were all acceptable. The one stand out were the lamb chops, so very tender, and perfectly spiced. There was a belly dancer performance towards the end of our meal. She was entertaining, engaging, and interacting with the diners. I would return to dine, a bit earlier in the evening to avoid the noise level."

Food is bad, drinks are bad,
service is bad...if you cannot find any place to eat in gtown, go home and don't eat there. Waste of money...."
Dined on 3/7/2014
Both comfortable and energetic
from the moment you walk in til the moment you leave. Service and food are exceptional. Chris, the manager, is absolutely the best"
Dined on 2/28/2014
Good find in crowded Georgetown.
Excellent service, very attentive but not pushy. Mezza choices were all excellent."
Dined on 2/28/2014
Every time I've been to Neyla, it
is a lovely experience. This lovely neighborhood gem is my go-to when entertaining visitors from out of town. They get a little tour of Georgetown and they are guaranteed delicious, authentic Lebanese cuisine. The wine list does not disappoint, and the cocktails are made with original recipes and infusions developed in house. The prixe fixe dinner options are great for both couples and parties of 4 or more, and offer a nice sampling of the menu hits."
Dined on 2/6/2014
Neyla's never disappoints. The
food quality is always top notch and consistent, authentic Lebanese. Love the ambiance and service is always good. Highly recommend for a date night, any kind of special event or someone just looking for a great meal. You will love Neyla's!"
Dined on 2/11/2014
Food was good, service was good,
our waiter was a bit pushy, but we had a good time with a group of 8."
Dined on 2/8/2014
We were looking for an interesting
restaurant to have dinner in Georgetown and read about Neyla. Very tasty food, good service, AND a belly dancer! Big surprise for us. The decor is very pretty."
Dined on 2/8/2014
Almost painfully loud and
scandalous; fast-food style service ~ not personal or calm and caring. Food is mediocre and the restaurant seriously overuses labneh (yogurt). Asked for a nice mint tea.... Were brought green tea. No mint tea at a Lebanese restaurant? Told the waiter we couldn't have it because it has caffeine ~ he said "I'm pretty sure it doesn't, I'll go check." Umm, we're not asking, we're telling you that green tea is loaded with caffeine!"
Dined on 2/1/2014
I went to Neyla on a Monday night
and I was excited to try it.! I'm a fan of Lebanese cuisine so I figured I would give the restaurant a try. The food was very good (not the best, but still tasty) and the ambiance was very Mediterranean. I will say, I went on a Monday at 730 and we were the only diners in the entire restaurant! So that was a little strange. The service was good at first and we were enjoying the meal. However, about ninety minutes into the meal, the server started rushing us out. It was just a little abrupt and unexpected, as we were the only ones there and the restaurant wasn't set to close for another hour and a half! I'd go to Neyla again, maybe on a weekend night to see what the difference is in diner attendance."
Dined on 1/28/2014
I selected this restaurant because
my guy and I wanted to try a Mediterranean restaurant during restaurant week. And, Neyla had pretty good reviews. The food was delicious and the service was great! I would recommend the Chicken Shish Taouk and the Jumbo Shrimp Kebab entrees. And, if you like dessert, the Baklava was also delicious. We'll definitely go back again!"
Dined on 1/18/2014
We went on a Saturday night during
Restaurant Week. The menu selection was limited and only fair. It was very noisy. Several big groups, but it was Saturday night during Restaurant Week. We are not likely to return."
Dined on 1/18/2014
I had read a few Yelp reviews
regarding the food provided by Neyla. I was excited to try it, but it wasn't as great as I had hoped. After taking our drink orders, our server returned and simply asked us if we were ready to order. He didn't mention his name, nor did he recommend anything off of the menu. Upon his return, we had decided on 6 different mezze plates that we wanted. After we ordered, the food arrived surprisingly fast which was nice. The only problem with this was that all of the dishes we ordered arrived to the table at the same time. It was somewhat overwhelming. Most tapas/mezze restaurants I've been to serve the dishes sporadically. I did enjoy the atmosphere and location."
Dined on 1/10/2014
But avoid the tables near the door
where there is lots of hustle and bustle and a coat closet!"
Dined on 12/28/2013
Once again (we have eaten here at
least 30 times), Neyla was great (food, service,everything)."
Dined on 12/27/2013
Had a great meal with friends, but
the service was iffy. It was early in the evening and very few people were there (I counted 3 other tables). Our waiter was very attentive WHEN he was around. It was nearly impossible to flag down someone to order more to drink and get more pita. In fact, when we asked for more pita the man I believe to be the host rolled his eyes (!). I find that the service at the bar for happy hour is much better."
Dined on 12/16/2013
one of the best middle east Food I
ever had!!!! Highly recommenede. I can't wait for my next visit."
Dined on 12/20/2013
I highly recommend the kibbeh neya
(beef tartare) at Neyla! My friends and I come here specifically for this dish and were first introduced to it by one of our Lebanese friends. Its prepared very traditionally and its always a treat to see the waiters' expressions when you order it :) If you don't like steak tartare, the other food is very good as well. They give you a complimentary yogurt and olive plate with crispy seasoned pita bread to start and all of the pita bread is made in-house and comes out fresh and warm! Over the summer I had the sangria and it was amazing too! Overall, a great place for Lebanese food!"
Dined on 12/20/2013
The only reason that we even knew
of this place was because we needed somewhere arabian to have our rehearsal dinner. That was two years ago. We went again recently because we grew a little tired of Cafe Mozart. We went to Neyla, spent too much money and while it was good the prices will probably always drive me crazy. Again, good restaurant but not quite worth the cost. Unless, of course, you are too lazy to cook the food yourself. Or it's a special occasion."
Dined on 12/16/2013
The waiters kept on trying to take
away our plates that we asked to keep, and they made us sit next to the entrance. Other than that it was okay."
Dined on 12/13/2013
We have been to Neyla a bunch of
times and it never disappoints. The food is great, the ambiance nice. The service is good. It is a little more expensive than the average Lebanese restaurant but that is because it's better quality and atmosphere than most."
Dined on 12/7/2013
Wonderful experience...the lamb
chops were amazing!"
Dined on 10/5/2013
This was my third visit and it has
been consistently good, well prices, excellent service. Food is fantastic."
Dined on 11/15/2013
It was a fun atmosphere and the
food was yummy. We also enjoyed the belly dancing."
Dined on 11/16/2013
We took a chance on this unknown
Mediterranean restaurant and we loved it! Drank the recommended Lebanese wine, which was excellent. We admired the decor; somewhat exotic, romantic and mysterious, yet, trendy and lively. We were given crispy bread, Lebanese yogurt and olives. Our excellent waiter recommended the sampler, which was wonderful, with hummus, baba, grape leaves, mini chicken shwarmas, and more. There were 2 of each to share, along with wood oven pita, the best I have ever had. We only needed 1 dinner and shared the lamb chops, followed by baklava and a molten chocolate cake and coffee. This outstanding meal was followed by an entertaining belly dancer! It was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend it."
Dined on 11/9/2013
Tasty and a welcome environment,
can't wait to return, Thank You ! Why have we stayed away, won't be long til we return, the beef was great, see you soon !"
Dined on 11/2/2013
As always we had a nice evening
with friends. The food is always great and staff are responsive."
Dined on 11/1/2013
friday night music is so loud you
cannot talk... better to eat outside if weather permits... FOOD IS GREAT !!! service too... but.... no fun if you can't talk....... during the week is better..."
Dined on 11/1/2013
I did really love my experience at
Neyla except for the noise factor. The restaurant is huge thus they have a very large sound system. We didn't realize we were sitting below a speaker until the restaurant starting blasting the music. They did turn it out down slightly when we asked, but it was still unmanageable. Do visit Neyla , but if you do - look up first!"
Dined on 10/27/2013
Brunch - solid A minus in taste
and quality, extremely reasonable price for a bottomless brunch including bottomless mixed drinks $35 flat for everything! shocking how few people would turn out. IMHO considering their brunch menu dinner options are somewhat limited. It was also quite different from the brunch menu, but they had a few of the same dishes. I would highly recommend the appetizers and salads - they are superb, but I will likely only be returning if they bring back brunch, b/c a few of my favorite dishes are no longer on the menu and there seems to be a portion-price descrepancy. Bacchus of Lebanon, Bethesda is also excellent - although they don't make their own bread like Neyla, their supplier is a local middle eastern bakery :)"
Dined on 10/6/2013
Great food, great service - who
could ask for more!"
Dined on 10/5/2013
If you are a 20 or 30 something,
who enjoys a lively and loud space to yell and scream at each other (rather than talk) on a Friday night, I suppose this might be the place for you. While the food was excellent, the competing noise from the PA and other diners made it totally un-enjoyable for this over the hill, open-minded, former performing musician. Also, $10 for a glass of wine that I know retails for $10 a bottle is ridiculous. On a warmer night, dining outside would have been appropriate. All that being said, there were plenty of revelers having a great time."
Dined on 9/29/2013
The food was good and so was the
service. It was just that I was trying to catch up with an old friend and once the live entertainment started it was very, very loud. We got fed up shouting to each other so we cut it short. But I liked the restaurant, just be aware that this was typical for a Saturday night."
Dined on 9/29/2013
For brunch, once it gets busy food
can take awhile to get to your table - but the food is worth the wait if you'd rather sleep in :) They make pita bread fresh on the premises and they have the freshest ingredients in their tabbouleh salad - easily the best tabbouleh in the area - better than mi jana and worlds better than lebanese taverna. The only place that can compare is Bacchus of Lebanon in Bethesda. Overall, their are lots of fruits, veggies, salads, lean proteins and breads on the menu keep the meal healthy and light."
Dined on 9/22/2013
I can't claim to have eaten at
every Lebanese (or other Levant country) restaurant in the DC metro area, but I've eaten at more than a few. Neyla is unquestionably the best. It is not quite Beirut's Burj al-Hamam, to be sure, but it would hold its own even back in the old country. All the mezze was exquisite. The Kibbe Nayye is very good. And when they bring you onions with the Kibbe Nayye without you even asking for it, you know it's authentic."
Dined on 9/25/2013
Have enjoyed Neyla in the past,
but this time was a big disappointment. Food was noticeably worse than prior visits and our server would disappear for long stretches. Pacing was all wrong as we sat idle for long periods between courses."
Dined on 9/16/2013
The food was so good. We got the
tasting platter so we got to try things we normally wouldn't order and I'm glad we did. Our waitress was lovely- she had a great smile and was very nice (something rare in DC)."
Dined on 9/13/2013
A gem of a restaurant located in
Georgetown. As vegans, the waitstaff and chef were very accommodating to our needs and the was outstanding. Highly recommend."
Dined on 9/8/2013
Usually very good service and
food. However, they get complacent at times. This week, the bread was hard and stale, the red wine was quite warm, and it was difficult to get my water glass refilled. Have been there 7-8 times, will go back, but will send back warm wine and stale bread."
Dined on 9/1/2013
I went there for a small intimate
birthday dinner for a friend of mine. Everything was great - food, ambiance and the service. We were all very happy!"

WASHINGTON (CNN) - More air marshals and behavioral detection officers, radiological detection teams and random baggage checks at transit hubs are among the security measures the federal Homeland Security Department will deploy in the next few days to help local police in New Jersey and New York secure the Super Bowl.
The game will be played at Met Life Stadium in New Jersey's Meadowlands area just outside New York City. The stadium's location near a major airport and busy commuter train lines presents security challenges. Unlike audiences for other championship games, spectators of Super Bowl XLVIII will rely heavily on mass transit.
Homeland Security officials say that federal agencies including the Federal Bureau of Investigation will deploy hundreds of employees to help New Jersey and New York police secure what's been officially designated "an event of national significance."
The Transportation Security Administration says it will deploy its Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response, or VIPR, teams. Composed air marshals, transportation security inspectors, behavioral detection officers, the teams will work at train hubs, particularly New York's Penn Station and Secaucus Junction in New Jersey.
The VIPR teams will help Amtrak police, New Jersey Transit officials and local police agencies with more random baggage checks. Officers with radiological detection equipment also will be deployed at transit hubs.
On Super Bowl Sunday, federal and state agencies plan to check all bags at Secaucus Junction for an expected 15,000 New Jersey Transit passengers headed to the Meadowlands station, which sits a few yards from the stadium. Because the station is so close to the stadium, passengers will be screened one stop before.
Some of the earliest signs of increased security will be visible Wednesday when the additional screeners will conduct random checks of baggage for travelers using Amtrak, New Jersey Transit and Metropolitan Transit Authority trains from hubs such as New York's Grand Central and Penn stations and at Secaucus Junction, TSA spokesman Ross Feinstein said.
The TSA is also adding more equipment and opening more screening lanes at Newark's Liberty International Airport to handle the crush of fans from Denver, Seattle and elsewhere arriving in New York for several days of events leading up to the game. Travelers on the Monday after the game will see more TSA officers and more equipment to handle the crowds.

Take Dedunos stats in July and August, yes he was injured later and suffered statistically but in July and August he was our best pitcher
keep your stats, keep your pitchers, but we will be laughing stock of league again, if Deduno is in Rotation, we will have a chance to win every time he pitches, is there a stat for that?
Dominate? Lets look at 2012: WHIP = 1.544 SO/9 = 6.5 BB/9 = 6.0 Man, we need 4 more just like him!
SD will never be a reliever for the all the reasons stated above.....
I was hoping he might step up and take Swarzacs lone relief spot
DOMINICAN WINTER LEAGUE Player of the Week – Samuel Deduno, RHP Deduno made one start this week. The right-hander threw six shutout innings. He gave up just four hits, walked one and struckout nine. In 20.2 innings so far in the DWL, he has given up no runs on 13 hits. He's walked nine, but he has struckout 26.
yes he had an eye problem and hid it, if you havent seen how well he is doing in WInter ball, what sources are you searching, try Seth Stohs
I'm a total strikeout rube, and he has strikeout material, but you'll notice by his meager 6.5 K/9 last year that he didn't get nearly enough of them. That's because he's so "ineffectively wild" the batters don't have to take the bat off their shoulders. When your control is so bad that every batter can be Mauer-like selective, you have to go back to the drawing board.
Date Opponent Score Dec IP H R ER HR BB K W L SV BS HLD IP ERA Sep 26 NYY L 2-8 - 1.2 0 0 0 0 2 2 6 5 0 0 0 79.0 4.44 Sep 22 @ DET L 0-8 L 2.1 7 7 7 2 3 1 6 5 0 0 0 77.1 4.54 Sep 15 CHW L 3-5 L 4.0 3 4 4 1 5 6 6 4 0 0 0 75.0 3.84 Deduno's last three major league starts. Don't read about him tearing up winterball either.
;but lets hear from the guy who knows the most about his pitching...his catcher Doumit "He fits the mold of an effectively wild pitcher," continued Doumit. "He's always going to be like that."He's always going to be a high-walk, high-strikeout kind of guy, but if he can harness it, you don't see too many pitchers with natural movement like that, and it's a testament to him."
the problem is, he is virtually uncatchable, but if Im the twins, I find a way to solve those problems,
Yeah, he did clear waivers. How did that happen? Could've been grabbed in the Rule 5. Was free to find a job with any other team (Florida, Houston).
Evidently we were watching a different guy.
He's great that's why he cleared waivers and signed a minor league deal.
Liriano can dominate at times and has phenomenal stuff as well. He even had a no-hitter in the ML level, that would prove he could be virtually unhittable sometimes. Deduno still needs to prove himself. I like Deduno, but he still needs to be consistent and be able to find the strikezone in order to have any success in the ML.
Ninth year will be the charm? He has been working on pitching for 9 years between the majors and the minors.

Don't see any of that with Plouffe. The thing I saw right away in Valencia when he came up, he was blaming everybody else for his lack of talent, I remember him standing at the plate looking at the sky, like he was saying, how could these umps be so stupid? When in truth he was struck out by a good pitch.

Ask Ananda's Experts
Questions and answers about meditation, yoga, the spiritual life, and more
Questions and Answers
February 12
Does prayer asking for forgiveness for our bad karma, after we have learned our lesson, actually work?
Karma involves action, and reaction... So prayer and devotion, as divine actions can certainly help to expiate our bad karma. Why? Because when we have harmed others in one way or another, we have forgotten that God resides in each and every human being. These words of Jesus Christ describe it well:

Although I am not officially trained as a healer, whenever I pray for someone in deep trouble (could be physical or mental), he/she feels some relief or in fortunate situations a total relief. Every time I get this affirmation there is an inner feeling that I should channel my energies and focus more, as I do not actually know how to direct God's healing power. Please suggest ways in which I can send healing vibes to others in best possible way. Thank you!
It sounds like you have a natural attunement and affinity for sending healing energy. Paramhansa Yogananda shared many deep teachings on the topic. To learn more I suggest you look through this section on Healing Resources: Many Ways to Share in the Blessings.

I want to know how to completely sublimate sexual desires which greatly impede the ability to concentrate and perform sadhana?
Dear Friend,
When a general plans an invasion of enemy territory he must obtain information about the preparedness and relative strength of the enemy forces.
Sexual desires (which includes romantic impulses and much more) are no mere tyro when it comes to complete sublimation. One must proceed with calmness and view one's efforts in the long-term, lest one find oneself completely routed and fall into an abyss of utter defeat!
February 10
Dear friend,
I had a big teary episode this morning after meditation where the thought of Ma and Gurudev abandoning me crossed my mind. I cried and cried. I know that our studies say that God is with us, as us, but the idea still broke me down, and now I am scared. I can't imagine life without the solace of the idea of a higher truth, and if God were to "let me go" due to some karma or my own folly, what would I do? How does one stay unattached with their love for God whilst being brave? :(
Dear Nirja,
I can't imagine a better reason for crying than thinking of God even in the way you have done. I also can't imagine that God would ever leave you. He, according to my guru, Paramhansa Yogananda, only wants your love. It seems that in your attachment to Him, you are showing that you have great love for Him.
February 10
I'm a beginner at meditation. The practice of Hong Sau has made me far more calm and peaceful than before. However, my self esteem still remains low. How can I build confidence through meditation? Do advanced kriya techniques help in overcoming emotional vulnerability?
If you continue your meditation practice with regularity you will find that your self confidence will increase. This is because your practice of meditation is putting you in touch with who you really are at the core of your being, a child of God. Daily experience of this reality will gradually remove feelings of lack, and replace them with feelings of peace, love, and joy. Hong Sau will do this as well as the other techniques of the path of Kriya Yoga — Aum, and Kriya proper.
February 10
I have been a kriyaban for 15 years and feel strongly that Yogananda is my guru. Sometimes though, I find deep inspiration in writings by teachers from other paths — and then I feel guilty! I know that, on the one hand, we are the Church of All Religions. On the other, I know that Swami Kriyananda warned on occasion about spreading our attention around. How do I know when I should not read or study another spiritual writing?
Dear Lynn,
Those who are new on any path need to strive to make a clear connection with the particular ray of divine light that is expressing through that path. During this stage, one's discrimination may not yet be clear enough to discern what's best for him or her. That's why it's important to focus exclusively on one's own path, for although other teachings may be perfectly valid, they can have different vibrations, different emphases that can confuse the devotee, or take him/her off track. So for those newer on the path, definite guidelines are in order: This way only!
February 5
Is reincarnation immediate? My brother died four years ago, and my two-year-old exhibits many of his characteristics and always points him out in pictures even though I haven't explained who he is or brought attention to him.
Dear Quinn,
In the Autobiography of a Yogi Paramhansa Yogananda writes of his promise to a young disciple, Kashi, that if he died young Yogananda would find him again when he reincarnated and help him once again onto the spiritual path. The chapter "Kashi, Reborn and Rediscovered" has many fascinating insights into reincarnation, but it also answers your specific question: Yogananda "found" Kashi six months later in the womb of his new mother. Visiting the family sometime later, Yogananada noted how similar the infant looked to the Kashi he knew before. Yogananda fulfilled his promise and guided Kashi to a Himalayan master.
February 5
Is it okay to be nice and normal to an ex, who has done something very very incorrect and adharmic with us in the past, even if we have not been able to forgive his actions?
Dear Friend,
There's no point, spiritually speaking, in behaving rudely to anyone. Politeness and ordinary human kindness should be natural to you in respect to virtually everyone (who isn't otherwise a present threat).
There's a difference, too, between forgiving and forgetting. So long as someone is around who might still even harm you, you mustn't fall into the same trap and be harmed again. Most people don't forget such things and probably shouldn't. But forgiveness which flows from a divine power, a grace, is right and good.

Chicago Bears: 5 Players to Watch in Week 16
By Matt Eurich ,
After starting the season 7-1, the Chicago Bears have been in a free fall, winning just one game in their last six.
The offense has continued to sputter while, not as dominate as it was earlier in the season, the defense continues to put the team in a position to win. With just two games left, the Bears will likely need to win out and have some help along the way if they want to get in to the playoffs.
The Arizona Cardinals were once 4-0 but also started to free fall, losing nine straight games before defeating the Detroit Lions last Sunday. This will be the first matchup between these teams since 2009, where the Kurt Warner-led Cardinals beat the Bears, 41-21.
Here is my list of five players to watch this Sunday:
Despite being one of the best pass defense teams in the league, the Arizona Cardinals have struggled against the run. They currently sit 28th in the league in rushing yards allowed per game with 136.5.
The Bears have struggled to get the running game going this season, but through his 13 games played this season, Matt Forte has 903 yards rushing on 212 attempts (4.3 yards/attempt) and three touchdowns.
With backup Michael Bush placed on injured reserve and the re-signing of Kahlil Bell (h/t ESPN), much of the workload in these final two weeks will be placed on Forte's shoulders.
Forte has struggled at getting to the outside, and some of that can be attributed to the poor play along the offensive line, but he will need to do better at that this Sunday if the Bears want a chance to win. The Cardinals front seven has loads of talent, but they have struggled to take control of the line of scrimmage in the running game.
Expect the Bears to feed Forte the ball early and often in order to set a tempo and to allow quarterback Jay Cutler to take chances with the ball downfield out of play action.
Once only known for being the guy whose sack virtually ended Brett Favre's career, Corey Wootton has shown he has the tools to be an effective starting defensive end.
In the previous two seasons, he had been hampered by injuries that only allowed him to play in 13 games, registering just that one sack.
He has been healthy this season, and through the team's 14 games, he has registered seven sacks, including one and half of Aaron Rodgers last Sunday.
The Cardinals offensive line is beat up, and Wootton will likely face rookie Bobbie Massie, who has surrendered 13.5 sacks this season. Their offensive line has allowed the most sacks this season, and it should be a field day for the Bears front seven.
Wootton still has a lot to work on but has improved in stopping the run. He will have to try to not to be overaggressive against Massie, as he has a tendency to rush too far up field, allowing plays to happen behind him.
This past Sunday, with the Green Bay Packers blanketing top receiver Brandon Marshall, rookie Alshon Jeffery got his opportunity to be a game changer.
He was targeted four times by quarterback Jay Cutler, had no catches and was called for three offensive pass interference calls. Jeffery struggled to get separation from cornerback Sam Shields, and his physical play and shoves resulted in the penalties.
The Cardinals pass defense this year has been stout, allowing just under 200 yards per game, good enough for fourth best in the league. Pro Bowler Patrick Peterson will get the tough assignment against Brandon Marshall, leaving William Gay to match up against Jeffery.
Gay has had his share of ups and downs this season but has hauled in two interceptions as well as two pass deflections. Jeffery's biggest problem last week was his inability to create separation, and he will have to be more physical at the line of attack to help him create separation. If he needs to create more separation when downfield, he will need to limit the length of his push off and to not overextend his arms.
The Cardinals will do their best to shut down Marshall, which should open up an opportunity for Jeffery to once again get single coverage, and with so much riding on this game, he will need to come up big.
The Bears offensive line has been like a game of musical chairs this season with various parts moving in and out of the lineup. Gabe Carimi was once the starter at right tackle, benched for veteran Jonathan Scott and then moved to right guard following an injury to Lance Louis.
Sunday against the Packers, Carimi was replaced by Chris Spencer, then an injury to Scott forced Carimi back in at right tackle.
Did you follow all of that?
It is no doubt that this offensive is the weakest group on this team, and it is still unclear who will be starting at right tackle this Sunday against the Cardinals. Whoever does get that opportunity will be matched up against one of the best 3-4 defensive ends in the game, Calais Campbell.
Campbell has the perfect combination of size and speed, does a good job of getting pressure on the quarterback and is even better at setting the edge in the running game.
Scott or Carimi will have to do a good job of sealing the edge on him in the running game, and expect the Bears to help them with either a tight end or a chipping running back in the passing game.
Week after week, quarterback Jay Cutler continues to get beaten up by opposing defenses, but he generally shakes it off and makes his way back out onto the field.
He has proved he has the ability to make all of the toughest throws on the field but mental lapses and a lack of talent around him makes it hard to truly judge his abilities. With two games left and still a chance to make it to the playoffs, these next two weeks will go a long way in proving what kind of quarterback Cutler really is.
The Cardinals will try and shut down Marshall and force Cutler and his other receivers to beat them. If there was ever a time for him to step up, this Sunday will be it.
The Cardinals are tough against the pass, and he will likely still get his fair share of balls to Marshall but will need to rely more on getting the ball to Matt Forte out of the backfield and Alshon Jeffery on the outside.
Expect them to try to roll Cutler out more, which he appears to be more comfortable in doing, and to use short passes down the field to help open up big plays down the field.

► FMRP is a novel interactor of the dynein cofactor BicD ► BicD is required for motility and normal levels of FMRP in neurons ► Long-distance, bidirectional transport mediates spreading of FMRP into neuritis ► BicD and FMRP cooperate to control morphogenesis of neuronal dendrites
The expression of the RNA-binding factor Fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) is disrupted in the most common inherited form of cognitive deficiency in humans. FMRP controls neuronal morphogenesis by mediating the translational regulation and localization of a large number of mRNA targets [1,2,3], and these functions are closely associated with transport of FMRP complexes within neurites by microtubule-based motors [2,3,4]. However, the mechanisms that link FMRP to motors and regulate its transport are poorly understood. Here we show that FMRP is complexed with Bicaudal-D (BicD) through a domain in the latter protein that mediates linkage of cargoes with the minus-end-directed motor dynein. We demonstrate in Drosophila that the motility and, surprisingly, levels of FMRP protein are dramatically reduced in BicD mutant neurons, leading to a paucity of FMRP within processes. We also provide functional evidence that BicD and FMRP cooperate to control dendritic morphogenesis in the larval nervous system. Our findings open new perspectives for understanding localized mRNA functions in neurons.

A black bear died Wednesday night after it was hit on Alligator Alley in east Collier County, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
The bear was hit around 6 p.m. on eastbound lanes near mile-marker 85.
FHP spokesman Lt. Greg Bueno said it was unclear what type of vehicle hit the bear. Following the collision, troopers pulled the bear out of the roadway to clear the travel lanes, he said.
Biologists with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission will collect the carcass and other biological evidence this morning, spokeswoman Carli Segelson said.

When they were 12 years old, Runa and Ren were very much in love, but Runa's mother was against it – they were far too young. Ren did the unthinkable, tried to have the two of them commit suicide together rather than be apart. The suicide was a failure but both kids were hospitalized with serious injuries. It didn't break them apart but eventually Runa's parents were able to separate them.
Several years pass and Runa has moved on with a new boyfriend named Shou when Ren suddenly shows up attending the same high school, very sexy and still in love with her, and suddenly her life is very complicated…

The Thai gay romantic-comedy "Love Next Door" was never meant to be a festival darling. In fact, the indie film was never intended to be shown on the big screen at all. But it's this very outsider status that helps explain the movie's presence at the Hong Kong Lesbian and Gay Film Festival.

Has anyone messed with the Google Places API?
I'm trying to figure out why its giving me limited results when i send a query; as opposed to doing an exact same query in Google Places on google.com. for example if i'm looking for Skateboard Shops in my script i'll get 10 results. If i did it in Google Map (Places) it'll give me 50 results. I checked all 50 in google maps to confirm its not just giving me broad results.
Just want to add.. I'm getting Max Results 20 regardless of the keywords i put in.Sr. Website Developer and Internet Marketing
Note: If anyone needs to get ahold of me please feel free to email me through my site. Apparently i missed quite a few private messages.

The API documentation clearly states that a Places Search API call is limited to 20 establishment results.

Archived:Backup and restore fails for applications using a developer certificate (Known Issue)
From Nokia Developer Wiki
Backup and restore fails for applications using a developer certificate |
Overview |
Backup and restore of applications using the backup_registration.xml file is not functioning as intended when the application is signed using a developer certificate. | |
Reported against |
S60 3rd Edition | |
Date identified |
December 29, 2006 | |
Symptoms |
Detailed description |
When the application is signed against either a trusted certificate or a self-signed certificate, backup and restore works as expected, provided that the backup registration file is included in the application SIS package. When a developer certificate is used, the restore process fails for that application. This affects all certificates that are bound to specific device ID (IMEI) value(s), most notably developer certificates. | |

I'm done the bones of the arm and hand! Next up is the pelvis and leg.
This anatomy project is tedious as all hell... effective, though.
I drew some hands this morning too. (skin and flesh included, heh)
Took a look through your sketchbook ,got nice charcoal and chalk drawings! the girl is awesome . just keep those anatomy studies Im sure you'll get better.
Your ability to render is really good. Nice surface anatomy on the last set of hands, and the toned paper sketches with charcoal and chalk are very nice.
Your life drawings seem to suffer from bad proportions. When you're doing your anatomy studies, are you constanly marking down and measuring proportions? If not, start doing it. Measuring proportions and learning to remember them is much more important than learning the names of all the bones and muscles. When you learn all of it, it's just going to be obvious that they are there, so the names really aren't important. Just make sure you learn to remember the proportions and relationships between bones and muscles.
Keep it up!
Sketchbook: Kit's Draw 10,000 Hours Challenge -Level 17

Thanks for the support from those who have posted replies!
Kitfox, thanks for the advice. You're right, I should really take a closer look at proportions and try to commit them to memory. As for the bit about learning anatomical names for everything, I've sort of been waiting for somebody to point that out. I realize that it's not important to know all the names, at least not for drawing purposes. My reason for doing such detailed/labeled studies is that I'm trying to learn this stuff partly for general interest and partly for school (I'm a biology student). Of course, the names are just arbitrary labels we've placed on body parts. Knowing them has little effect on my ability to draw them, but I still wish to know this stuff for a better/deeper understanding of anatomy as a whole. The way I see it, if I'm going to draw all of the bones and muscles, I might as well slap the names on while I'm at it and maybe actually remember a few.
Anyway, I think I'm overdue for an update... so here's something.
The first one is a quick study of a monkey.. I got tired of it pretty quick so it's not nearly finished.
The second one is a couple of skulls I drew using my plastic skull for reference.
The third one is a photo study of a cat done with charcoal/chalk on greyish blue paper. That one definitely took several hours, though I'm not sure exactly how many.. maybe 3.. ish?
Last edited by isokarhu; September 18th, 2011 at 07:30 PM. Reason: touched up the cat
Well, I stayed up way later tonight than I expected. I was determined to finish this thing.. and I'm quite happy with the way it turned out. It's another charcoal/chalk drawing on grey paper. This one's a self portrait, and I think it actually looks quite a bit like me. Huzzah!
Here's a link to the reference photo: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/822/024rwc.jpg/
Last edited by isokarhu; September 21st, 2011 at 02:34 AM. Reason: added a link to the photo
hi, the latest portrait is very nice. Is it based on photo ref? Obviously you have a patience for the details. My suggestion would be to use less rendering on studies from time to time and focus more on shapes to define the subject. Keep on drawing.
Thanks Jr.Molcak. Yes, the portrait was photo reffed. I added a link to the photo in my last post if you'd like to see it.
I totally agree with your advice. I spend way too much time and effort obsessing over minor details. In the time it takes me to do one painstakingly detailed study, I could do ten rough sketches of the same thing and end up understanding the form of whatever it was ten times better. All I'm learning rendering all this detail is how to render lots of detail... not necessarily such a bad thing but I think I need to know more than that, yes? Note to self, focus on the big picture!
That said, here's some more of my detailed bone drawings! hah
Also a lizard done with pen/watercolor. This is my first stab at this medium and I quite enjoyed it. I think it came out kind of messy and I overworked it with the pen but I'm still pretty happy with it. This certainly won't be the last watercolor you see from me... unless of course you don't return to my sketchbook. In which case, shame on you.
first of all thanks for stopping by my sb great studies going on here
i realy love your rhino from the first page! keep it up
wonderful studies, very inspiring
Thanks Delay and m0uS3r!
Here's something a little more imaginative (though I did use some reference, especially for the bear). I'm new to having color as part of my arsenal, so this piece was pretty much about playing with color. I'm not crazy about the end result but it was fun to paint. The lighting is off I think... the bear's shadow isn't right.
Hi Isokarhu - thanks for stopping by my sketchbook! You have some nice stuff here, solid pencil rendering on those studies - keep at them, and keep drawing from the imagination too! Good luck, will stop by again!
good studies keep it up : ]
and you can use ref on my pictures of course
There are some nice works here. I think the life drawing is slightly weaker, but I believe that is the area you can learn most from. There's nothing better for observation skills / drawing the human form and it will feed back in to everything you do. Good skills, keep them coming.
Current Sketchbook:
You seem to be improving really quickly! Wow.
You have nice studies. Keep it up! Can't wait to see where you're at in a page or two.
Thanks for the encouragement everyone!
thegrayslayer: You're right, my life drawings are a weak point. I think it might have something to do with there being a time limit. When I'm doing a photo study, I have a habit of correcting the drawing over and over until it looks good and I'm satisfied (often takes a while). With a live model and limited time for each drawing, I don't have that luxury. That's probably a good thing.
Here's some new stuff. I'm trying to do quicker, messier, looser drawings. It's not going that well so far... hah
More studies and some doodles.
Great stuff, bro. Your photo studies are definitely better than mine. Guess I don't quite have the same patience and eye for detail.
Thanks Overworlder! Please convey my warmest regards to the overworld and all of its wonderful people and creatures.
More studies. I picked up some conte and I'm quite enjoying it.
Your doing great on your studies, don't forgot to try some things you studied from memory. Learn and apply!
Wow, I see so much improvement in these sketches! Some very polished finished works on the colored paper as well. Keep on doing the studies, they're really paying off!
I like your faces done without reference, because they are so diverse in their looks. I see some improvement there too.
Overall you're doing wonderfully!
Here's my last update until late November. I'm leaving the country and will have little to no access to a computer and/or scanner so this thread will sit stagnant for awhile.
It's only one image, done in photoshop. I did this for one of the daily sketch group threads. The topic was: "child is really too small to wear mechanical armored suit."
Bear in mind that I'm still a total photoshop noob and I've never before drawn any kind of walking mech.
Bye for now!
Nice mech. I like the big water-colory splotches. I do feel like there's a bit of a discord between the clean lines on the counter/cabinets vs the hand-drawn lines on the mech/child.
I'm back!
I was pretty busy for most of my trip so I didn't have much time to draw, but here's what little I did.
1. Sketches at the airport
2. I spent a lot of time in front of this statue every day for 26 days.. I became quite fond of it and decided to draw it
3. Tree monster inspired by a piece of driftwood
4. =/
5. hands!
Nice sketchbook. Amazing hands! I love the water color! The bear could use some shade on his right foot, but I think it's still a cool picture. Cookie robot, lol.
I can definitely see improvement in your work but tend to notice your faces are a bit wrong proportionally and seem flat. Especially in the eyes. I think it's because you outline the eyes really dark. Your anatomy studies are good and I disagree with something that was said above. You should learn the names of the muscles and bones. Not all of them but the major ones. Knowing the names is important because it does help you understand how they look from different angles when looking at an anatomy book. I don't know. Learning the names did help me.
Thanks for coming by Istmin and billakong.
Istmin: Hm, fix proportions and remove eyeliner. Noted. Thanks =)
I think faces are a weak point for me. I see so many people that can convey so much character and emotion with such simplicity... here I am shading and agonizing away and coming up with.. well, you know.
Also, I've yet to have a good look at the muscular anatomy of the face. Some time soon I think.
Speaking of muscular anatomy, here's some muscular anatomy.
Cats too.
See? I still draw sometimes!
Bird head studies and dragons.
Every wanna-be fantasy artist has to draw some dragons once in a while right??
Last edited by isokarhu; December 21st, 2011 at 04:33 AM.
I like the angle you chose for the last dragon drawing. I would say you can push the lights and darks some more. I know you were doing the shading quickly but there are about two tones so it appears flat.
There's actually a really good animal drawing book called The Art of Animal Drawing by Ken Hultgren. He was a disney animator and draws animals from insane angles. It's really cool.
Anatomy studies are always helpful but try to really understand the skeleton so you know how the muscles work. I know you did some skeleton drawings before but keep doing them. It will def help in the long run.
Well I love your rendering skills, there is so much rich texture there that draws the eye in! Definitely agree with some of the other comments about figure drawing proportions, etc. I would recommend doing some studies with the Loomis mannequin type bodies and get familiar with how those move and behave. If you combine that proportional knowledge, your knowledge of the human anatomy and your rendering skills I think you'd be unstoppable. I'll give you a piece of advice that I've received a couple times myself for my own figure drawings since you seem to go about them the same way I did. You don't really want to be in the habit of drawing the full outline and then just shading the inside. Instead, knowing the construction of the body, rough out the proportions using a simplified form to nail it down before moving on. Then also be aware of the weight of your lines and how their thickness or thinness can convey form, etc. You wouldn't want to have an arm, for example, that's being lit with a strong highlight have a thick pencil outline.
Ok, that was longer than expected. We're all here to learn and I really like the direction you're going!
New semester, lots of stuff to do, but also new life drawing sessions.
Love your studies and those latest ones are lookin' pretty good. Keep up the great work!

Very upset about aspects about the Sandusky trial I believe left the victims far from being vindicated. It was mentioned one victim screamed. He said the only way Dottie Sandusky couldn't have heard was if the basement was sound proof. But no one even checked to see if it was. His own son was molested, yet Dottie walks free.
I was a victim of sexual abuse and I can speak from experience, the abuser tears you apart physically, emotionally and psychologically, but the person who knows it is happening and walks away tears you down so low you feel you will never get back up. They are saying you are not worth saving, not worth fighting for, that you don't matter and you have no value.
Dottie had to know what was going on with her son and others and should have to pay for taking away their value. She did as much harm to those children as her husband did. She should suffer the same shame and punishment!

Nice & Comfortable
By Rockandrollwoman
from Windsor, Ontario
I like the versatility of these earrings. You can change them up to a different look everyday. I do agree that the diamond stones are too small and it would have been better to put a crystal stone or even diamonelle (larger stone) on the charm dangles for earrings. Size of the hoop is perfect.

By Josette
from Toronto, Ontario
I have these in the rhodium plate. I am happy with them, except for the gemstone dangle has a different ring than the other dangles and doesn't move easily on the earring. I may dump the gemstone dangle. Otherwise, I love these and the other dangly bits and will wear them often. I wear them with all the dangles, but if you prefer you could do one at a time and vary the look a little.At the sale price, I can heartily recommend.

I would not buy this earings
By dog lover
from PEI, Canada
I purchased as showstopper in the gold. They are stylish, good idea of several charms was great. But even before I wore them I noticed discoloration. Dissapointing,I wanted to wear them for vacation, missed return time, but I can,t wear them, because with this discoloration on them they are looking cheep.
By Ladyinred

I purchased these earrings in the rose gold when they were a showstopper. Absolutely love them! I lost one and was happy that I could still order them, so now have a spare! Lol!

I purchased these as a showstopper in the rose gold. These are perfection!! They are cute, beautiful, stylish, fun, sofisticated, sexy I could go on and on. I had other charms in my wardrobe that I had made myself in sterling silver and they also work extreamly well with these hoops. This was my first purchase with Eva's line and I'm sure it won't be my last. Thank you so very much!

Some discoloration
By Lolo the shopper

Bought this in the Rose Gold and Silver. Nice looking and the idea of several charms was great. Noticed some discoloration on the Rose Gold charms. Disappointing even though we're talking gold plating. Not taking any chances. At this point I was weary about the quality. Sent them back.

Really liked the look of these on tv but they arrived tarnished. It does not sound like I was the only one either. I did not keep them; brand new jewelry should not arrive tarnished. Quality control should pick up on that.

Gives the opportunity to change the overall look of the earrings. Only drawback is that the charms do not fit on my silver or white gold chains I own.
Pretty but.....
By Lynne

I ordered these earring in the rhodium plate, my first purchase from the Eva LaRue line. The earrings are just plain hoops, the charms although pretty are fairly small, and Eva if I can give you a suggestion, skip the itsy bitsy diamonds, & just put in a decent cubic zurconia, then you can lower the price. I like the earrings with a couple of charms and they are very versatile. I got them as the showstopper & frankly feel they were slightly overpriced even at that price. You can hardly see the diamond in the 2 charms. They are a nice earring, just not worth the price.
Nice Earrings

I purchased these in the rose gold. They are a nice size hoop, not too big for short necks. The charms are cute. I would not wear all at once but really like the options of wearing different ones. The rose gold is very pretty. Mine did not arrive tarnished as other reviewers have mentioned. They are quite bright. The butterfly back is a bit small but I had no trouble with it.

Kimberly Dozier covers intelligence and special operations for The Associated Press, tracking the war on violent extremism from the Washington, D.C. to Afghanistan, Pakistan and beyond. She joined AP in March 2010.
Dozier covered the war in Iraq for CBS News from 2003, until she was wounded in a car bombing in 2006. That bombing killed the U.S. Army officer her team was filming--Capt. James Alex Funkhouser, along with his Iraqi translator "Sam," and Dozier's colleagues CBS cameraman Paul Douglas and soundman James Brolan.
In her best-selling memoir, Breathing the Fire: Fighting to Report and Get Back to the Fight, Dozier recounts the deadly attack and journey to recovery, thanks to the troops on the ground and an army of medical professionals who took her from learning to walk again to running 10Ks -- for the record, because so many ask, pain- and post-traumatic-stress free. Regular workouts 4-5 times a week are a must for any former trauma patient, but that's a good thing.
The author's proceeds from the paperback and e-book go to charities for the combat injured like Fisher House. Dozier has also used fees from speaking to national security forums to donate the paperback to patients and families going through the same medical crisis.
Dozier speaks on issues ranging from U.S. counterterrorism and national security policy to her own story of survival and recovery.
Listen to an audio preview of Breathing the Fire
AP's videochat of "Why it matters: the Afghan war."
