Salafists, who adhere to an ideology that seeks to restore Islam to its original meanings and teachings, have played a significant role in recent conflicts in the Middle East. Earlier in August, there was speculation [BBC report] that Salafist cleric Mohammed Yursi Ibrahim would be appointed to the cabinet Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi [BBC profile; JURIST news archive], possibly increasing tensions between Muslims and Coptic Christians in Egypt. In June, an Israeli missile strike killed two Salafist militants in the Gaza Strip [BBC report].
Last month Morsi ordered the release [JURIST report] of 572 people convicted in tribunals by the Egyptian military. Earlier in July, a few days after he was sworn in, Morsi issued a decree [JURIST reports] calling the dissolved Egyptian parliament back into session, despite a previous ruling by the country's Supreme Constitutional Court [official website] dissolving it due to its finding that one-third of its members were elected illegally [JURIST report]. The court suspended Morsi's decree two days later, after which Morsi vowed that he would respect the ruling [JURIST reports]. A court struck down [JURIST report] a government decree in June that restored broad arrest powers to Egyptian military officials. Days before its dissolution, the Egyptian parliament elected a new constitutional council after lawmakers finally reached an agreement [JURIST reports] on the political composition of the council. In April the country's Administrative Court effectively suspended [JURIST report] the work of the 100-member council responsible for drafting the country's new constitution after ruling in favor of a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the formation of the panel.
Wells Fargo...[was], at a minimum, negligent in recommending the relevant asset-backed commercial paper programs without obtaining adequate information about them to form a reasonable basis for recommending these products and without disclosing the material risks of these products. As a result, Wells Fargo...violated Sections 17(a)(2) and 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act.
Wells Fargo [JURIST news archive] has been involved in many legal battles recently. Last month, the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit [official website] dismissed a lawsuit against several banks, including Wells Fargo, that accused the banks of price-fixing [JURIST report]. In March, the SEC filed a subpoena enforcement action [JURIST report] against Wells Fargo to force the company to hand over documents connected to the company's sale of nearly $60 billion in residential mortgage-backed securities to investors. Earlier in March, Wells Fargo and the country's four other largest mortgage service providers reached a $25 billion settlement [JURIST report] with the Department of Justice, the Department of Housing and Urban Development [official websites] and 49 state attorneys general over mortgage loan servicing and foreclosure abuses. The settlement was initially announced [JURIST report] in February. The settlement does not prevent civil suits by individual homeowners or criminal charges pursued by federal or state authorities.
If a tool used to transport contraband gives off a signal that can be tracked for location, certainly the police can track the signal. The law cannot be that a criminal is entitled to rely on the expected untrackability of his tools. Otherwise, dogs could not be used to track a fugitive if the fugitive did not know that the dog hounds had his scent. A getaway car could not be identified and followed based on the license plate number if the driver reasonably thought he had gotten away unseen. The recent nature of cell phone location technology does not change this. If it did, then technology would help criminals but not the police.
Government use of modern technology to monitor and locate citizens has created legal uncertainty recently. Earlier this month, the American Civil Liberties Union announced that their affiliates are sending approximately 375 requests for information in 31 states to reveal how law enforcement uses location data tracking on cell phones [JURIST report], arguing that the warrantless tracking of GPS signals is unconstitutional. In June lawyers for the US Department of Justice defended the warrantless use of GPS devices [JURIST report] on suspects' vehicles despite the Supreme Court ruling in Jones declaring GPS tracking to be a "search" under the Fourth Amendment. The Supreme Court concluded in Jones that the government's attachment of a GPS device to a vehicle, and its use of that device to monitor the vehicle's movements, constitutes a search under the Fourth Amendment. Also in January, the Supreme Court of California ruled that law enforcement officers can legally search text messages [JURIST report] on a suspect's cell phone without a warrant incident to a lawful custodial arrest.
Ratko Mladic's trial has been making slow progress after being postponed numerous times. Last month the ICTY postponed [JURIST report] the trial due to health problems. The trial came to an abrupt end when the former commander complained that he did not feel well. The prosecutors and victims have expressed concern that Ratko Mladic could die before facing a sentence, much like former Yugoslavian president Slobodan Milosevic [ICTY backgrounder; PDF] who died [JURIST report] in 2006 before the ICTY could issue a sentence against him. The ICTY resumed [JURIST report] the trial only three days earlier with the testimony of witness Elvedin Pasic, who was a juvenile at the time of the Bosnian civil war in the 1990s. In June the ICTY postponed the trial after suspending proceedings [JURIST reports] due to an error in disclosing documents to the defense lawyers. The trial had been already postponed indefinitely [JURIST report] in May due to allegations of prosecutorial misconduct related to evidence disclosure. Ratko Mladic's first appearance [JURIST report] before the ICTY was in June of last year when he contested charges against him while simultaneously asking for more time to review them. A day after, during his second appearance [JURIST report], he refused to enter a plea without lawyers of his choice representing him and he was removed from the court for disrupting the proceedings.
Last month a federal judge released an accused Somali pirate [JURIST report] after prosecutors failed to produce sufficient evidence to proceed to trial. That was the same week that the International Chamber of Commerce International Maritime Bureau (IMB) [official website] reported that the number of global pirate attacks fell sharply [JURIST report] in the first half of 2012, the IMB Piracy Reporting Centre [official website] (PRC) having received reports [materials] of 177 incidents in the first six months of this year, compared to 266 incidents for the same period in 2011. In May the US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit [official website] ruled that the legal definition of maritime piracy [JURIST news archive] includes an armed attack to hijack a ship, even if the attempt is unsuccessful. Earlier that week a United Arab Emirates court sentenced 10 Somali pirates [JURIST report] to 25 years in prison. Also that week six accused Somali pirates went on trial [JURIST report] in a Paris court for taking 30 crew members hostage in 2008 on a ship in the Gulf of Aden. The US government in March handed over 15 suspected Somali pirates [JURIST report] it had captured in January to the Republic of Seychelles for prosecution. Italy ordered its first international piracy trial in February against nine Somali pirates, while France began its first international piracy trial [JURIST reports] in November.
In March of last year Chin rejected an amended class action settlement agreement that was reached in 2008 between Google and the plaintiffs, who brought the copyright suit [JURIST reports] in 2005. The settlement agreement stated that Google would pay $125 million to the authors and publishers of copyrighted works in exchange for the permission to display up to 20 percent of the work online. The court reasoned that the settlement agreement would allow Google too much freedom to exploit copyrighted works in the future. Chin's ruling came a month after he had postponed his decision [JURIST report] because he was not ready.
As we see two of the most prominent human rights lawyers in the UAE and a retired army colonel begin a hunger strike, the Emirates Centre for Human Rights calls on the international community to condemn the draconian response to legitimate citizen desires and demand that detainees are treated humanely.
Hunger strikes [JURIST news archive] have become a common protest tactic recently for prisoners in the Middle East. Last week, Amnesty International (AI) [advocacy website] urged Israel [JURIST report] to investigate the alleged mistreatment of two Palestinian prisoners currently on hunger strike. In June, a Bahraini doctor who was imprisoned for allegedly participating in an anti-government activity went on hunger strike to protest his sentence [JURIST report]. Earlier in June, the UN Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories called on Israel [JURIST report] to release two Palestinian detainees who had been on hunger strike for several weeks. In May, an incarcerated Bahraini human rights activist ended his hunger strike [JURIST report] because he felt he had raised awareness of the imprisonment of political activists.
Bemba's trial began [JURIST report] in November 2010. Earlier that month, appellate judges of the ICC ruled [judgment, PDF] that the trial chamber must review [JURIST report] Bemba's continued detention in The Hague. This decision overturned the trial chamber's July ruling [text, PDF]. Pursuant to Article 60 of the Rome Statute [text, PDF], chambers are obligated to review an accused person's detention once every 120 days. The preious month the ICC affirmed [judgment, PDF] a trial chamber ruling and dismissed [JURIST report] Bemba's appeal challenging the admissibility of his case before the court. The court also concluded that its jurisdiction over the case did not violate a Rome Statute provision that prohibits the ICC from hearing cases after a country has decided not to prosecute the person concerned. The ICC held that the order issued by the CAR did not constitute a decision not to prosecute. In April, Bemba's lawyers argued before the court that charges against him should be dropped [JURIST report] because he had been denied due process and the charges were illegal. In addition, defense lawyers claimed that Bemba lacked the financial resources [JURIST report] necessary to ensure a fair trial. Bemba was arrested [JURIST report] in Belgium in May 2008 after the ICC issued a sealed warrant for his arrest.
The principal legal issue presented here is whether the Attorney General may withhold that limited subset on the basis of "Executive privilege" where there has been no suggestion that the documents at issue implicate or otherwise involve any advice to the President, and where the Department's actions do not involve core constitutional functions of the President. ... Accordingly, the Committee asks this Court to reject the Attorney General's assertion of "Executive privilege" and order him forthwith to comply with the Committee's subpoena.
Operation Fast and Furious was a Department of Justice (DOJ) [official website] investigation involving tracked guns that were permitted to travel from Arizona to Mexico in an attempt to stop weapons trafficking by high-level arms dealers. In June the DOJ announced that it will not prosecute Holder after the Oversight Committee voted to hold him in contempt of Congress [JURIST reports] for failing to fully comply with the committee's subpoenas. Upon being held in contempt Holder responded [press release], "Today's vote is the regrettable culmination of what became a misguided—and politically motivated—investigation during an election year," and stated he would continue to focus on the government's job of protecting the American people. Obama ultimately asserted executive privilege on the subpoenaed documents, effectively rendering the contempt charge moot. The DOJ submitted a joint staff report [report, PDF] to the committee in July 2011, discussing the effects of the admittedly failed operation in Mexico. The committee had originally begun investigating the operation [press release] through the DOJ's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives [official website] in April of that year.
The fact that the University's consideration of race produced measured rather than drastic increases in the inevitableand salutaryresult of the University's structuring of its admissions policy so that race is but one factor within an individualized, holistic assessment of all kinds of diversity. These modest effects confirm that the University is not operating the policy as a quota, and that it has designed the process to minimize the impact on non-minority students.
The US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit [official website] ruled last year that UT's admissions policy did not violate [JURIST report] Fisher's rights to equal protection under the Fourteenth Amendment and federal civil rights statutes, affirming a lower court decision. The appeals court concluded that UT could rely on race as one of the "special circumstances" that the Supreme Court upheld in the 2003 case Grutter v. Bollinger [LII backgrounder] used to evaluate student applicants because race is one of many factors the university considers.
Tymoshenko is reportedly suffering from a spinal condition which causes her debilitating pain. Earlier this month, a Ukrainian appeals court postponed [JURIST report] the appeal hearing challenging Tymoshenko's corruption conviction and seven-year sentence. This marked the third postponement in that case. The appeal was last postponed in June [JURIST report]. The new date was set to August 16 following the request of the prosecution. In May, the ECHR ended an investigation [JURIST report] into the health care conditions of Tymoshenko, finding that the Ukrainian government provided her with adequate care. She previously alleged that prison guards were beating her [press release, in Ukrainian], and refused to be treated [JURIST report] by prison doctors for back problems, believing they were under the direction of political rival President Viktor Yanukovych. Tymoshenko has already been sentenced to seven years in prison on corruption charges. Ukrainian prosecutors have also indicated that she will face charges [JURIST reports] in a 1996 contract killing.
We ... find that the EPA's objections to the emissions caps of the Flexible Permit Program rely on standards not found in the CAA or its implementing regulations. The EPA's explanation for its objection is unsatisfactory because it provides no insight into how the emissions caps interfere with [any] applicable requirement of the CAA. The EPA acted arbitrarily and capriciously, and in excess of its statutory authority.
The EPA has been forced to deal with several defeats over the past year. Two weeks ago, the US District Court for the District of Columbia [official website] ruled [JURIST report] that the EPA violated several environmental statutes when it issued regulations on coal mining in the Appalachia region. In October a federal judge similarly ruled [JURIST report] against the agency regarding its process for granting permits used by coal companies for mountaintop removal mining in Appalachia. There, the court ordered that the EPA's 2009 guidelines be set aside so that all pre-2009 guidelines could be restored. In an out-of-court defeat last September the US House of Representatives [official website] passed [JURIST report] the Transparency in Regulatory Analysis of Impacts on the Nation Act 2011 [text, PDF], a bill that essentially blocks a number of proposed EPA regulations aimed at reducing emissions.
The victims filed a class action lawsuit [JURIST report] in March 2011. The suit was brought on behalf of all individuals who were subjected to experimentation in Guatemala or were infected to be used as vehicles to infect test subjects for the venereal disease experiments. The complaint alleges that the PHS conducted the human medical experiments in Guatemala to test whether penicillin could also be used as a prophylaxis immediately following exposure to the syphilis bacteria. The plaintiffs sought relief under the Alien Tort Statute [28 USC § 1350], the Fifth Amendment and the Eighth Amendment [materials]. Evidence of the PHS program [report] was discovered by Professor Susan Reverby [academic profile]. US President Barack Obama [official website] apologized [BBC report] to Guatemalan President Alvaro Colom for the testing. Reverby's study shows that the PHS infected more than 700 people in Guatemala with syphilis and gonorrhea. The patients were prisoners and people suffering from mental health problems and were unaware they were being tested.
[M]any aspects of the law have failed to keep pace with cultural and technological advances that mean information about trials can be easily published on the internet. This poses particular problems since, once material gets onto the internet, the original publisher can very easily lose control of it and any precautions he or she takes to minimize impact on a trial may be ineffective.
Contempt of court laws have drawn significant controversy around the globe. On Friday the Supreme Court of Pakistan [official website] ordered Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf [BBC profile] to appear before the court by the end of the month or risk contempt of court charges. Last week the government of Pakistan announced that it will petition the high court to review its decision nullifying [JURIST reports] the Contempt of Court Bill 2012 which was passed to shield the country's new prime minister from contempt charges. The bill was passed by the upper [AFP report] and lower houses of the national parliament and signed [JURIST reports] by President Asif Ali Zardari [official website] last month. The legislature and the president approved the law in order to protect the new PM from possible contempt of court proceedings for failure to reopen the investigation against Zardari. In June, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) [official website] convicted Serb nationalist politician and war crimes suspect Vojislav Seselj [official website, in Serbian; JURIST news archive] of contempt of court and sentenced him to two years in prison [JURIST report].
In the 5-4 Supreme Court decision written by Justice Anthony Kennedy, the court concluded that the extreme overcrowding of the California prison system is causing inmates to receive inadequate medical care in violation of the Eighth Amendment [text]. In August 2009, a special panel of federal judges ordered [opinion, PDF; JURIST report] California to reduce its prison population by about 46,000 inmates or construct more facilities to handle the prisoners. After the court's decision, it was apparent that California would be unable to build the prisons and would have to release prisoners. The court found the inability of the prison system to provide the "basic sustenance" of medical care is an Eighth Amendment violation that the courts must remedy.

Diner Reviews
El Sacramonte has decent food and
a unique menu, but poor service spoiled our experience. First it took 20 minutes to seat our party of 8 (I had a reservation through Open Table). The hostess offered to get us water, but only brought glasses and did not fill the glasses until about a minute before our table was ready. The waiter was very nice and gave us a delicious seviche appetizer. He took our order quickly, but the food took a very long time to arrive. He and the hostess hovered in a way that was annoying. The tables were so crowded that the restaurant was really noisy. Half the time we could not hear what the waiter was saying. My dish (steak medallions) was good, but the chicken mole was very overcooked. Will not return or recommend."

We had a large group of eight at
this fabulous restaurant. The service was amazing, the food was delicious and their suggestions on wine pairings were fantastic. This is a place I will come again and again. The variety of steaks on their menu was impressive and the décor was stylish. I look forward to trying new items on their menu when I return. This is a must visit restaurant."

4 of us dined at El Sacromonte for
Valentines Day. When I made the reservations I was told the full menu would be available as well as a Valentines menu. When we arrived we waited at the bar for 25 minutes the dirty glasses in front of us were never cleared and the bartender never acknowledged us & we never got a drink. After seated we did order one round of drinks, the only round of drinks we were ever offered. We were then told the dinner menu was limited to either the Valentine Special or items from that menu ONLY. The food was overcooked and luke warm when it did arrive. We have eaten here before & loved the food, staff and experience. It was too busy and packed in this little restaurant and they definitely did not have enough help."

Valentines night the place was
hectic and some of the wait staff were 'temp' or new. My corn empanada and pork shank - - delicious!! Wife's salad was OK and her three salsa steak - filet turned out to be rib eye. Service was slow, orders were delivered on cold plates and the mashed potatos were cold and tastless, The El Sacramonte promotes 'Fine Dinning' on the front window but it is more of a Bar and Grill atmosphere. The bar and dining area are one big room, televisions blaring and all were having a good time. I do not want a TV for dining, believe hot food should be served on hot plates and an apology for order mistakes. El Sacramonte may be a good place for everryday dining but not for a special romantic fine dining experience."

The restaurant was a
disappointment on Valentine's Day. The restaurant was clearly overbooked for the amount of staff working that day, which resulted in extremely slow service. A few customers around us left prior to being served due to the slow service. Food was good, but clearly not worth the wait. We were not even offered dessert, as the waiter placed the bill on the table and just left. Overall a very poor experience for a night that my wife and I wanted to be enjoyable."

The mistake was going on
Valentine's Day. It is hard to assess a restaurants typical performance, when the entire adult world is out to dinner. The only assessment to be truly made is the restaurant's ability to manage resources and perform at MAX demand. In this case the staffing was insufficient for the demand. However, the food was really good just served too slow due to crowd! Kudos to the cooks. We will try again on a regular Friday."

Interesting menu. The food was
beautifully presented and delicious. Housed in a beautiful old building in center of downtown, lots of atmosphere inside, but high ceilings magnified the noise level to the point that I was continually having to have things repeated across our table for 2. Notified them it was a birthday on reservation, but nothing special was done for her except they said "Happy Birthday" after I reminded them. Good variety on drinks. 2 drinks, 2 dinners 2 desserts. $105.00. plus tip."

Fantastic Valentines Day dinner,
amazing service (even though place was packed), great wine and incredible food. We had the rib eye. Our server even picked (@ our request) our dessert and it was perfect. We'll be back."

It took 15 minutes to be
recognized at our table on Valentine's Day. Another 15 minutes to order and to get water. We didn't receive bread, but most tables did. The waiter an hour in asked if we were ready for our dessert and our entree hadn't arrived yet. The people next to us received the same unattention, so they got up and left. This waiter had to be a family member on a busy night because he had no clue. My 3 Salsa Filet mignon was great."

I was really disappointed on
Valentines. I've been here before and it's been great. However on Valentines they overbooked the place and didn't have enough staff on hand to handle it. We waited over ten minutes after we were seated before our waiter even came to the table and instead of taking our drink order told us it would be a few minutes. Finally my husband got up and went to the bar and ordered us drinks. Then when it came time to order they were pushing their valentine special which we didn't want. When we tried to order from the regular menu many of the items weren't available. It was very disappointing."

My wife and i have been planning
more outings to the Livermore vineyards followed by early dinners at one of the many restaurants that are part of the downtown Livermore restaurant renaissance. We had heard some good things about El Sacramonte and gave it a try this past weekend. Boy, were we impressed! Everything we had was delicious and the place is beautiful. We'll definitely make this a regular stop whenever we are in this area"

My husband had been here a couple
times and raved about the delicious food, so we decided to take my niece for her birthday. It's beautifully decorated with a nice bar and it's not a big restaurant. We got right in at 6:30 on a Sat. evening. The noise level was loud when we first arrived and increased to extremely loud by the middle of our meal, we had to yell to be heard. Our server was friendly, but forgot to bring my husband's wine, he had to remind her. At the end of the meal, we had asked about a complimentary dessert for my niece's birthday and she said absolutely but forgot to bring that too. :-( My husband complained his meal was cold by the time it got to the table but it was good. Glad we went, but could have been better."

I ordered the beef tenderloin
medium rare, but it came medium, other than that all was very good."

Had eaten lunch here a couple
months ago and it was great. Made reservations through Open Table for a recent Sunday lunch. The website for El Sacromonte says they serve lunch. We got to the restaurant only to find they were closed and appeared to only be open for dinner. Info needs some updating. Disappointing."
Dined on 1/26/2014
The "tres salsas" were good, but
the steak, all by itself, was great! I'm not sure why, but I've not had the best luck with medium-rare steaks being cooked, well, medium-rare! This was cooked to perfection; tender and flavorful. The "tres salsas" added an extra dimension, but the last few bites were just with the steak alone, and I was happy! Nice/spicy jalapeno margarita helped to wash away a busy work day and set the stage for a nice night out."

We really enjoyed our dinner at El
Sacromonte. My wife and I both ordered a drink, appetizer, main and dessert. Every dish was above expectations. For specifics, we got: Calamari - Wife liked it, and it came with some excellent sauces Chorizo - I loved it, just enough spice Filet w/ 3 sauces - Tender, juicy, and great sauces Filet w/ Hibiscus - Maybe a little too much sauce, but still very good Cream Brulee - A little different than a standard one but excellent Sweet Crepe - Way better than I had hoped. I would go back just to order this Total for our mean was 135 including Tip."

We have made this restaurant one

The food was wonderful. We went
with steaks, but eyed many other items on the menu longingly. The service was attentive but not intrusive, each dish arrived on time and perfectly prepared. Great decor. We'll be back!"

The first time we went to El
Sacromonte the food and service was very good and why we decided to go back. Unfortunately we had a very different experience this time. The service was very slow and inattentive. The food was lukewarm at best, lacked flavor and we even had to request our check at the end. When we finally received our check we were charged for a drink that we did not have and had to ask them to run it again. I travel a lot for my business and eat out several nights a week and truly understand the difference between a good dining experience and a bad one; this was a bad one. In fact, this dining experience was so bad; it compelled me to write this which is only my second review of a restaurant on this site in the past 5 years."

We enjoyed spending several
hours,(service was at our pace) dining.Service was outstanding. Jerrod was our waiter and he took good care of us and helped make the evening special. Dana helped with table selection,special treat was meeting Chef Rodrigo & discussing the duck dish (which was sublime). Started with cocktails,they were generous pours & yummy.we all LOVED the food. Best duck I've had in years. Steaks were fabulous as was a shrimp dish. Each dish had it's own sauce, all were excellent! And the spiked gelato, several flavors matched with the perfect spirit (e.g. vanilla bean with rum). Decor is very interesting, keeps you looking & enjoying the space. Employees are extremely friendly, & do everything they can to make diners happy."

Food was good, service was average
but the owner a nightmare. One sip of wine, less than an ounce left in the glass and we were asked to give up our table for the next reservation. They tried to take food before we were done. We immediately got up to leave but when asking to see the manager we were told the owner had sent the hostess over to our table and that he was hiding in the kitchen and would not be coming out. We saw him RUN to the kitchen. We were there 1hr 5 min and had two courses. Realizing it would be busy later in the evening we booked at 6pm and asked not to be rushed, as we wanted to enjoy our last meal of 2013. The owner, Sergio Barba was so unprofessional that the experience really made us feel sad and uncomfortable."

We decided to try this restaurant
for our wedding anniversary. Our reservation was 6:45 but we arrived a little early and were seated right away. Our waitress was wonderful helping with recommendations for wine and main course. My husband chose the lamb shank and said it was tender and flavorful. I had the halibut it was delicious and a surprisingly generous size. We saw a couple steak dishes pass by and they looked so good we've decided that will be our next choice when we dine there again."

For our anniversary dinner, we
tried El Sacromonte for the first time. It was a great choice! After reading the reviews, I was attracted to the restaurant because I didn't feel that they would rush us through our meal and push us out the door. We had the most lovely 2-hour, romantic dining experience ever! We shared appetizers, salad, an entrée, a bottle of wine, and a dessert. The food was beautiful and delicious. The service was very professional. We left a very generous tip, since they graciously let us linger and share meals. We can't wait to go back!!"

There was 4 in our party. Our
reservation was Saturday night at 7 PM on 12/21. We had two appetizers to share the Chorizo and the Vasca Cheese both were very flavorful and were more than enough for 4 people to share. The entrees ordered were the 3 Salsa steak ( fun to try different sauces on the steak from mild to spicy), San Pablo Steak, Lamb Shank and Elizabethan Shrimp Crown (excellent with the lobster sauce and spinach). We shared two desserts the coconut flan (I am a flan connoisseur and this was a nice change) and the corn ice cream. We also shared a local bottle of wine with dinner. The live band was starting up at 10 PM so we stayed a little longer to listen. This is a higher end restaurant so I would go for special occasions."

This restaurant was recommended to
us, and we went with high hopes. Boy, was our hopes dashed to the ground. When we arrived, the restaurant was FREEZING. I asked the waiter, and he said "oh do you think it's cold?" We had to put our coats back on. We also noticed the manager had put his coat on as well. We were 15 minutes late for our reservation, our fault due to traffic. On that note, we told our waiter that we had a 7:30 show, and could we please order soon. After the order was taken at 6:05 it took 40 minutes to get our soup served, and that was after we asked a young lady where it was. We were totally ignored by our waiter throughout the evening. Husbands dinner was frozen!!!"

On the outside the place seemed
quite small, but as soon as we came inside it was a good size. Husband and myself really enjoyed the calamari appetizer. I got the lamb shank and it was pretty good. A good menu to choose from for everyone. The only thing that bugged me was that although there seemed to be enough waiters to serve, everyone was a bit confused of what they were doing and when they needed to serve."

Great mix of Latin food with steakhouse dishes. Great bar scene."

Went to El Sacromonte for the
first time. We never knew it was there. Food was fabulous. What I liked most is that it was different, bringing in flavors of Spain to a steakhouse. Genius! Especially, in Livermore where it is not necessarily known for a variety of cuisines."

you make dinner the entire
evening's entertainment. It is European service. That often feels slow to most Americans. Wait staff helpful making dining/wine choices. We had lamb and mole chicken. We were both happy with our meal."

The food is good to very good. It
was a long dining experience. The place has a good vibe, we felt relaxed. Thought it was overpriced for the location and quality of food and service. Some other places nearby present a better value IMO. I wanted more coffee after dinner, I got it and was charged for another cup of coffee too. Nice presentation of the dishes, it is all about looks and style at this place. We will go back but won't be on our regular rotation of places."
Dined on 11/15/2013
The food and service were
excellent, but the rather small eating area with tables nearly touching one another coupled, with the high, tin ceilings left everyone using their "outdoor" voice just to talk amongst themselves. Throw in a handful of small children and the ambience was less like a fine restaurant and more like a McDonalds."

This place was innovative when it
first opened, but has gone downhill since. The Mexican dishes are still good. Unfortunately they have "gone upscale" by offering as main courses generic steak and other meat dishes with mashed potatoes and random boiled veggies. Yuck."
Dined on 11/15/2013
From serving to eating it was
generally ok. The salmon i ordered was somewhat stale and not the "best" I have tasted other salmons which were better than this one. A group of 8 were eating and most of them had either steak or lamb. They stated their food were good, the service was ok. The server did not give us his attention as we would like."

Our dining experience was
wonderful...I love that the food selections are so different, very creative...it's food you just don't get everywhere. The sauces are outstanding! I had the Queen Elizabeth Shrimp with Lobster Sauce, my son had the beef medallions with another very good sauce and my husband had the duck...all were 5 star!!!"

I was expecting Mexican Food. I

Service was slow. They need more
servers on the weekends. Sauces were good but the quality of the meat was not good. Full of fat. Shrimp was overcooked. We will try it again when they aren't so busy."

Carnegie Moves UH into Tier One Ranks - FAQs
Has the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching recognized UH as a Tier One research university?
In its most recent classification of universities, issued in January 2011, the Carnegie Foundation categorized UH as a Research University with "very high research activity" (RU/VH) the highest classification given to research universities and the equivalent of Tier One status. UH was previously in the "high research activity" category.
See the Carnegie Foundation press release here.
That means UH is a Tier One university?
Yes. Within the academic community, the Carnegie classification is commonly regarded to be one of three indicators that reflect an institution's rank as a Tier One institution. The other two are its rank in the Center for Measuring University Performance's Top American Research University (TARU) reports and membership in the Association of American Universities (AAU). Recognition by any of these three is generally taken as an indication of Tier One status.
What is the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching?
It is a nationally recognized policy and research center founded in 1905 by Andrew Carnegie and chartered in 1906 by an act of Congress. The Carnegie Foundation systematically evaluates and classifies colleges and universities based on empirical data. Universities are reclassified approximately every five years. For more information: http://www.carnegiefoundation.org/
What indicators does the Carnegie Foundation evaluate to determine its classifications of research universities?
The foundation evaluates the amount of research and development funds expended at institutions, which gauges the level of research activity occurring at universities. The Foundation also considers the number of research staff with doctorates employed by universities as well as the number of doctoral degrees awarded each year.
How many schools are included in this top tier for doctoral research universities?
The Carnegie Foundation classifies more than 4,000 colleges and universities in the United States. In its latest report, fewer than 300 are classified as research universities, and approximately 100 have been given the Top Tier designation – Very High Research Activity (RU/VH).
How many universities in Texas are in that top-tier group?
Three public universities – the University of Texas at Austin, Texas A&M at College Station and, now, the University of Houston. Rice University is included as a private university.
How does this affect UH's situation with regard to the state's National Research University Fund (NRUF), a program to financially support seven Emerging Research Uh3rsities as they meet state-determined benchmarks to become more nationally competitive?
UH's designation as a top-tier research university by the Carnegie Foundation should have no direct effect on its meeting the NRUF benchmarks and qualifying for the designated funds. UH remains classified as an Emerging Research University and, as such, remains eligible for financial support.
Does the Carnegie classification in its top tier mean that UH has now completed its task of becoming a Tier One university?
The Carnegie recognition, which focuses on research success, is a gratifying and pleasantly surprising achievement since it has been accomplished sooner than many imagined was possible. It is very encouraging and validates the considerable efforts and commitment of UH and its supporters. We will be working hard to maintain that distinction. However, Tier One status in this area is not an end in itself. UH is still committed to broadening our overall excellence and, in particular, strengthening our performance and reputation for student success. We are continuing our efforts along those lines and hope to enjoy results as admirable as the Carnegie distinction at some point.

Long Island Memories
Editorial For The Family ' Arabian Nights,' the colorful spectacle at Jones Beach is another successful effort at showmanship in the Guy Lombardo manner. The theatre makes possible the use ofelaborate sets such as a 90- foot motor- driven whale, a large Chinese junk, and other exotic effects, including fireworks, all emphasized by a new ultra- modern sound amplification. A complete evening of delightful entertainment is offered for the entire family. Supper may be enjoyed at the theatre restaurant before the show, and dancing to the music of Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians after the show is provided in the enlarged gay, striped tent adjacent to the theatre. Performances are held each evening at 8: 30 and will continue every night through September 3. Causeway approaches to the theatre have been widened to accomodate the ever- increasing traffic. The paving has been completed and routes leading to the theatre are now in good condition. This year at Jones Beach additional beach areas and parking fields have been provided throughout the park and a new $ 1,900,000 olympic- size swimming pool has been built at the East Bathhouse. Make Them Short We have been unable to print many of the Letters to the Editor in recent weeks mostly because of their length. Some of the writers just go on page after page ad infinitum. Space limitations do not allow for such long letters. Others, of course, cannot be printed because of content. This means that they border on libel, or, in some cases are not in good taste. This may explain the reason why so many of the letters were not published. Letters should not exceed 300 words, if at all possible. The short letters generally receive pre-ferentail treatment, if worthy of publication, of course. A Dilemma We were glad to see that the Plainedge voters saw fit to pass the school budget on Wednesday. The nearly 2- 1 majority was evidence that parents did not want an austerity budget with the various deprivations that would have to become a reality. The budget cut was probably what the voters really wanted in the first place. Does this mean that taxpayers will protest when a Board's first and second budgets are submitted for voter approval? We hope not. This kind of thinking reminds us somewhat of military budgets. We understand that under normal conditions, those in charge of preparing budgets for the various branches of military service are told in advance, to pad it a little. Why ? Because it will give members of Congress a chance to cut. It enables them to look good back home. We don't think this holds true in School Budgets. But school budget defeats give taxpayers the right to say ' no.' Is it because they don't believe the first figures presented for their approval ? # y « 2St;> - Jfarmftigftak ( Bluvrttrr » \ " • .•.'.' f - . * Published every Thursday by Tltl OBSERVFK. INC.

Your cooperation helped publicize the right and privilege of New York State servicemen, to vote by military ballot. The 1967 election information can reach many who receive your publication or are reminded by their family, how to vote a military ballot. To obtain a military ballot, a serviceman may file an application or he may write a letter giving his full name and rank, his home residence address and his military address. Applications and letters must be signed by the serviceman but need not be sworn to nor attested. The spuse, parent or child of a serviceman who accompanies him may similarly vote a military ballot. The 1966 Legislature approved a special form of application for members of the Armed Forces serving outside the continental limits of the United States, which may be signed by the spouse, parent or adult child of the serviceman. This signature must be subscribed and sworn to before a Notary Public or official authorized to administer an oath. Elmer F. Lux, Walter E. Cooke, Directors To the Farmingdale Voters, I regret to report that evidence of the irresponsibility of your Library Board and Library Director continues to pile up. The most recent incident occurred Wednesday night at 10: 00 P. M. when your " tattle-tale" Trustee discovered a secret meeting of the ' Fiends' at, of all places, the South Farmingdale Branch of your Library. It was especially noteworthy mat the propaganda they were preparing to distribute clearly states the meeting room will be closed to such groups as the Campfire Girls, Boy Scouts, Little League Umpires, Sportsmen's Club and others because there won't be money to pay for the necessary maintenance." The " Fiends" of the Library happens to be one of those " others," yet this policy, which is now in effect ( unnecessarily), apparently does not apply to them. Perhaps the presence of Library Director Orrin B. Dow and Library Trustee TUford accounts for this. After all, isn't the Library THEIRS? Furthermore, no payment has been received by the Library from the " Fiends" for overtime use of the Library for their other meetings since July 1. This charge is supposed to cover the expense of keeping the Library open for meetings after normal closing time, thus making restriction of its use by community groups ( other than the " Fiends") a simple case of blackmail to force passage of the budget! Why don't YOU find out WHO is doing WHAT with YOUR money, and WHY? Your Library Trustee, Carl Gorton Dear Editor, T a x a t i o n without representation is the issue presented to the Farmingdale voters and tax-, payers on Tuesday, August 29. The sole issue in the proposed Library budget vote is not the additional $ 29,740 but whether or not a few can dictate to die majority. The proposed election is an example of the desecration of the democratic processes. The voter- taxpayer is held in scorn and contempt when he does not vote the way the elected members of the Library Board of Trustees think he should vote. These so-called " self- sacrificing servants of the people'' know what is best for the people, assuming the people do not know what is best for themselves. The voter- tax- { ioutturn u un l> age*)) Capitol Report irnimu By Rep James Grover J ^ g ^ One of the major controversies ovti the past year has been reform of the nation's draft procedure. I found this to be true as I campaigned for re- election last year, and the recent tabulation of my annual survey shows that there is still a great deal of dissatisfaction with the present procedure. Contact with my fellow congressmen has convinced me that this feeling is nationwide. Despite this feeling, the recently passed final version of the Selective Service Bill is very similar to the one that just expired and does not go very far to correct the inequities which exist. I voted against the final version of the bill because new provisions passed by the House were eliminated in the Senate - House Conference Committee. The original House measure, which I supported, included a provision for effective national criteria for induction and deferment. The Senate measure did not have the provisions for national guidelines, and the Conference Committee went along with the Senate version on this point. The term national guidelines is somewhat misleading because the lack of such guidelines can cause inequities within an area as small as or smaller than a congressional district. I have been contacted on several occasions where young men with similar qualifications were drafted and deferred by different draft boards within the Second Congressional District. My recent questionnaire showed a great deal of sympathy for a national lottery system to determine who will be drafted. There are now approxi • mately twice as many nineteen-year- olds eligible for the draft as are being called up. If they are to be chosen by lot under the present and continuing inequitable system, one must ask the question, " Whose lot?" Perhaps a national lottery would be the answer. For this and other reasons, I have joined with forty other congressmen to request that the bill just enacted be reconsidered. Otherwise, we will have to wait another two years before we can clear up a number of the inequities which have not been cured. THE WASHINGTON WATCH By Congressman John W. Wydler Thousands of people have lost their lives at grade crossings over the country, and many, many thousands more have been crippled for life. The monetary figure in time lost and property damage is incalculable. I believe the legislation which I introducted in Congress recently will cut this figure dramatic - cally. It is odd that not one of the Nation's safety experts ever thought of it beofre mis, or realized that a relic of diehorse-and- buggy era has dragged on and on, annually taking terrific toll. Crossing gates are still painted black and white — the colors that a horse sees best — when high visibility paint has long been available together with reflecting finish! This is an area of safety that calls fpr action. My legislation denmnds that 3the new Department . ® f ^ Transportation order all^ pa^ lrpads in the Nation to pain^ cVbssing gates and all grade'grossing warning sighs a high visibility yellow, using reflecting paint, so mat a driver can spot the lowered gates far, far further than he could spot die horse-age black and white. And, 1 want tiiis change made by next Spring before the heaviest traffic of the year begins. It will be costly so I am looking into a number of Federal fund allocations with the thought mat the Government should pay half the cost. . . the railroads the odier half. But whatever die cost, colored, reflecting paint on grade crossing gates will save lives — probably me least expensive life-saving device ever suggested. The idea is simple but good. We have arranged for a demonstration on the Long Island Rail Road in die near future. This is a logical extension of the highway safety acts die Congress passed last year. It ' is time we painted die gates for 20th century car drivers and not for " die old grey mare." Plainedge Budget Passes On Third Try The Plainedge school budget of $ 8,747,748 was passed by the voters on Wednesday evening after two previous defeats. The vote was 2,477 ' yes' votes to 1,298 « no' votes. A transportation proposition was defeated in a close vote for one half mile bus service with 1,860 < yes' votes to 1,890 4 no' votes. The proposition defeat means that new transportation policy will go into effect with 3/ 4 mile busing for elementary students, one and a half mile for junior high school and two miles for high school students. The Proposition rejection will amount to a saving of 12 cents on the tax rate, wheh will probably be set at $ 8.70 for $ 100 assedded valuation. Plainedge Board President Lawrence I. Hammer made the following statement after the budget passage: " I am very gratified at the efforts of the community in supporting the budget and realizing that an austerity budget would not be the least bit desirable even though it would tax rate. The efforts of all the taxpayers in getting out the vote should be commended and the appreciation of the Board and the administration is extended to all whose effort made the passing of the budget possible." The budget was defeated at two previous votes on May 3 and June 3. $ 104,175 had been cut from the June 3 budget, which was defeated 1,474 to 1,012. Voting took place from 10 a. m. to 10 p. m. on Wednesday. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiwiimiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiii Lottery Tickets At Village Hall Village Clerk James McKenna this weektoldthe OBSERVER that residents may purchase New York State Lottery tickets at Village Hall between the hours of 8: 30 a. m. and 4: 00 p. m.

Story Summary
Halbarad sees Aragorn getting lost in the woods in a rather sinister way.
WARNING! Comments may contain spoilers for a chapter or story. Read with caution.
In the Woods
Thanwen - 07 May 10 - 5:40 AM
What a disturbing atmosphere... I'm not quite sure if I would have dared to drink any alcohol in a mood like that, dangling on the very brink of madness. One just can feel the situation, so I suppose even readers who up to now have not thought much about Aragorn's years before he went to Rohan will be well able to estimate this story.
It's a wonderful little piece in itself, reminding me of some ancient tool made of dark wood, smoothed by long use through endless generations.
Thank you, Wormwood,for this mental treat.

I adopted a jack russell mix a little over a year ago. His name is "Duke" and he is approximately 4-6 years old. About 2 months ago, Duke had a bad case of diarrhea including a large trace of blood in his stool. I took him to the vet and he was given an antibiotic, a probiotic powder to put on his food, and a prescription type dog food specific for digestive problems. His temperature at that time was normal and he showed no other signs of ailment. After a week or so, his stool went back to normal. However, he began to have a liquid leaking from his anus. It appeared to be anal gland fluid so he was taken in to have the fluid extracted from that area. I was also told to keep him on the special dog food. It has been several weeks and he continues to leak from his anus. Everywhere he sits, he leaves a spot. He is very aware of this leaking and licks back there often to try to clean it up. He could be asleep on the couch and then suddenly his head shoots up and he tries to lick his bottom. He has a very short tail so the liquid is visible. When I blot it with a paper towel, it looks like a mixture of anal glad fluid and sometimes blood. Over the past few weeks, I have taken him back to the vet to have the anal glands cleaned out again but it doesn't seem to help and he is leaky within a day. The only explanation anyone could give me is that it might be related to allergies. Duke is bothered by this issue as am I. It is very frustrating not to have any suggestions to ease the problem. Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Please help with any suggestions you might have. Thanks so much.

10% discount for bookings made before Nov 9 2012, 15% discount for stays of 7nigths or +.
What is the value to you of having your own private beach - complete with deck, chairs, and shower, where you can catch the sun, with or without your suit? This is it: a private sandy beach on one of the most beautiful sandy bays anywhere. It is a quiet place, a place undisturbed and surrounded on both sides by rocks, trees and flowers.
Magen's Bay, with its famous mile wide beach, is one of the treasures of the Caribbean. It is a mile wide, four mile long 'U' shaped bodies of water, stretching northwest to the Atlantic Ocean, Because of high hills on three sides, the Bay is protected and very calm, and the wind blows out the Bay, keeping the waters still and the bottom sandy.
St. Thomas is a US territory, more easily reached than any other Island in the US or British Virgin Islands. Direct flights reach the Island from every major city in the eastern half of the United States. The Beach is on the very quiet north side of the island, but the nightlife, restaurants, and shopping of the Island is just 20 minutes away by car. St. Thomas is widely regarded as having the best high end shopping of any place in the Islands.
Your 1000 sq. ft. condo unit is right above the beach, reached by a short walk down a stair war to the beach. The condo has a large living room, a good sized kitchen, and two bedrooms, one equipped with a king sized bed and the other with two twins. The unit has a 9' by 40' deck the whole length of the condo, with seating for four guests, a place to eat, barbecue, or just lounge and watch the spectacular sunsets and the lights of the houses across the Bay at night. The entire property was renovated in 2007, with new kitchens, baths, and furniture.
This condo is located as part of Villa Eau Claire, a gated private home located on Peterborg Road about a half mile from the main Beach. The owners upstairs in a one bedroom unit, but they are infrequently on Island and will provide you with privacy if they are there. The Condo has its own entrance and its own stairs down to the Beach.
The Villa is equipped with a 27K generator, providing constant power during the frequent breakdowns of power in St. Thomas. Power has been out at least several times a week for a long time and if you rental unit does not have an automatic generater, that will diminish the quality of your stay.
This condo is part of Villa Eau Claire, which has a larger and more expensive two bedroom, two bathroom, 1,400 sq ft residence that is also for rent. These two units can be rented at the same time, providing four bedroom, three bathrooms, and two kitchens. Please see listing #221807. If rented together, there is a 10 percent discount from the combined rental prices.
Keywords: Condominium, luxury, beachfront, private deck, water access, beautiful views, sand
Villa Eau Claire is one of three properties that Gordon and Annika Black own and rent on St. Thomas. We specialize in rehabbing the entire property, with Gordon taking responsibility for the purchase and the basic design of the rehab, and with Annika providing the furnishings and interior decoration. Annika is a European, and it shows in the taste applied to the furnishing of the property. This is the sisth property we have done together, having sold three other villas. Gordon was in his past life the founder, Chairman and CEO of Harris Interactive (HPOL). They spend about six months on St. Thomas and the rest of the time in Paris and traveling. Julia Quetel is the House Manager and John Cooper, who built the Villa, takes care of maintenance.
Why this property? It is THE ONLY CONDO available directly on Magen Bay, with its own deck, shower, lawn chairs, and pocket beach. Villa Eau Claire is less than one half mile through the water -- a gentle sandy walk seldom above your knees -- to the main beach at Magen Bay. The views are spectacular; the sound of the waves is enticing; and the sand is wonderful. What more could anyone want? The property is gated and with good parking, and the lot is beautiful -- flowers, flowers everywhere! In addition, the villa is only five minutes away from the only 18 hole golf course on St. Thomas and very close to a couple of the best restaurants on the Island.
The condo is directly above the beach, with about 50 steps down to the deck below, and six steps to the beach itself. Also, the laundry room is directly below the deck. Although teh property is completely air-conditioned, most guests, particularly in winter, do not use the air-conditioning because they want to hear the water at night. The beach next door -- less than 100 yards away -- is the alternative lifestyle beach and the hope to nude bathing -- the only such beach on St. Thomas.

Restaurants in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico, searchable by cuisine and location, with ratings and reviews. Get educated before you eat! One of the few places in this city where you can get seven kinds of beef in one sitting. Or if you aren't in a beefy mooood, try another authentic Vietnamese dish from the huge menu, like fresh spring rolls, wonton egg noodle soup or cashew tofu. Pair it up with a fresh coconut milk shake and you've got yourself a meal. This is a great hidden jewel of a date spot, so show your man or woman that you've got class—and lemongrass (try some wrapped around the beef ball appetizer).

With Tom Bolman, CAE, executive vice president of IACC
What's your favorite ice cream? Pralines and cream on a gigantic waffle cone is my guilty pleasure, because it reminds me of the decadence and overindulgence of "The City that Time Forgot."
Do you doodle in the margins? I love to circle any clever turn of phrase, or any sentence that is particularly evocative or literate — or stupid.
What's spinning in your CD player? I've about worn out my "Down from the Mountain" CD, which includes dazzling performances by virtually every living legend of blues.
What lunchbox did you carry to school? I always grabbed my Roy Rogers and Trigger lunchbox before I galloped onto the school bus.
If you could lead the life of a movie character, who would it be and why? Any quirky character in any Coen Brothers movie would be fun — but particularly the dapper, silver-tongued Ulysses Everett McGill (George Clooney) in "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" as he made his madcap journey through Depression-era Mississippi after escaping from a chain gang.
Tom Bolman, CAE, joined the International Association of Conference Centers in 1987. Bolman plans, organizes, and directs the staff, programs, budget, and activities of both IACC-North America and the global organization. Before that, Bolman spent 10 years as director of marketing for Stouffer Hotels Corp. for several properties in Ohio and Missouri.
