Atherton is earning the nickname Crasherton and needs Caltrans to engineer and build safety into that dangerous stretch of El Camino.
on Sep 30, 2013 at 1:10 pm
Someone had the nerve to blame the victim in the other thread: "Taking responsibility for one's actions is not something that be fixed by more yellow paint, curbs or lighting."
When it should be: "Taking CIVIC responsibility - fixed by more yellow paint, curbs or lighting."
Crasherton. Prefect. Accurate. What will it take to shame Atherton into Actionton? Atherton should be all over Caltrans for help.
on Sep 30, 2013 at 1:44 pm
Hey Crasherton "Taking responsibility for one's actions is not something that be fixed by more yellow paint, curbs or lighting." was not blaming the victim. It was blaming the heartless person that left the scene without rendering aid. You can't fix that lack of moral compass with paint and lights. I know you want to blame everyone but the driver but the reality is it's the driver's fault. Civic responsibility is an empty feel good statement. Civic didn't kill the man, it was an individual.
on Sep 30, 2013 at 1:55 pm
@Atehrton - "Civic responsibility is an empty feel good statement."
The kind of community spirit that built America. Way to go, Aherton, showing your true colors. "We don't put lights or dots on the road, no curbs, you're on your own so we can have our imitation Carmel-like village."
May you and yours survive that kind of attitude. Others as well.

The Police Report said that the victim's body from the Hit and Run had been moved from the site of impact. I hope Police are examining residents' cars in the area.
on Sep 30, 2013 at 3:56 pm
Good time to remind everyone that when walking alongside a street, ALWAYS walk facing traffic which means on the LEFT side of the street. About half the people walking out there have their back to traffic that passes close to them. They are so self-confident that they apparently think no one would dare hit them. That's a deadly attitude and may be a contributing factor in the unfortunate accident reported above. Drive Right, Walk Left!
on Sep 30, 2013 at 7:04 pm
Hit-and-run is not an accident. Killing someone and leaving them to die alone in the street is essentially premeditated murder.
on Sep 30, 2013 at 7:58 pm
"Hit-and-run is not an accident. Killing someone and leaving them to die alone in the street is essentially premeditated murder."
So much in error with that statement.
An accident, whether killing someone or not, is still an accident. The crime is leaving if you knew you hit someone. Until the police release details, it's all speculation.
on Sep 30, 2013 at 9:10 pm
There was a published police statement, early on, that there was evidence suggesting that the body had been moved.
on Oct 1, 2013 at 1:29 am
Moved? Moved by hand? Moved by impact? Multiple impacts? Two or more vehicles? By the gravitational pull of the moon?
Or just wait, until the report is released. But yes, I hope they review all the vehicles driving through the area that night. It's a public roadway, and one of the few entrances to Lindenwood.
on Oct 1, 2013 at 6:02 am
El Camino Real in Atherton needs to be cut down to 2 lanes in either direction. That would make it the same as Redwood City and Menlo Park. Atherton has a freeway between its north and south ends. With 3 lanes, drivers almost always have the ability to exceed the speed limit and often do.
Atherton also needs to step up to the fact that the area is becoming more developed and congested. The horse and carriage streets that once served the community well are not adequate. They don't comply with modern standards to striping and signs. Pedestrians and bicyclists have to make do with unsafe, unlit roadways.
In both cases, the result is unnecessary injury and death.
on Oct 1, 2013 at 10:38 am
Can someone explain to me what this statement means - "There are more unknown answers right now than we have questions,"
on Oct 1, 2013 at 12:19 pm
DA Steve Wagstaffe bad mouthed the hit and run victim in today's paper, stating he had been twice arrested for being drunk in public. Was this guy hit by a police car?
on Oct 1, 2013 at 12:35 pm
Was that bad mouthing, or just stating a fact?
on Oct 1, 2013 at 3:41 pm
"Was that bad mouthing, or just stating a fact?"
Fact or not, what does it have to do with the case at hand. Wagstaffe should have shut his mouth.
on Oct 1, 2013 at 4:14 pm
SteveC is a registered user.
mmm, drunk or not, hit and run is a crime. Sad, sad, death.
on Oct 1, 2013 at 4:49 pm
The fact that this victim was arrested twice before for a trivial offense that harmed only himself is totally irrelevant, and Mr. Wagstaffe should have thought about embarrassment and/or distress his diarrhea of the mouth could cause his family during this very difficult time. It shows really poor judgment on his part.
on Oct 1, 2013 at 5:12 pm
The comments about the deceased hit & run victim being drunk remind me of when a now Menlo cop killed a homeless guy, accidentally, with his car. This was before he was a cop, working as a non-sworn police employee.
on Oct 1, 2013 at 11:49 pm
I've now heard that the deceased, Mr. Jeffry Zeman, is a United States veteran.
Steve Wagstaffe, that's a lot more relevant information about this victim than the fact he was once drunk in public, or jaywalked, or whatever other petty offense you want to smear him with. Shame on you.

BLACKSBURG, Va. (AP) - Virginia Tech researchers are conducting a study aimed at reducing accidents on a fog-prone stretch of Interstate 77.
The Roanoke Times reports that the study will determine the ideal brightness and color for new variable speed limit signs. The Department of Transportation plans to install the signs between Fancy Gap and the North Carolina border.
The signs can be quickly changed to drop the speed limit when visibility is reduced.
Currently, there's only one electronic message board in each direction near the fog-prone area to warn motorists.
The most recent accident occurred Saturday when an Ohio man was killed in a six-vehicle crash. On March 31, three people were killed and 25 were injured in a 95-vehicloe pileup.

Air-Bag Operations – Part 4: Size-up & Initial Operations
Proper size-up is critically important for a successful operation involving an air-bag lift. Jon Hall shares these initial actions will help prevent further injury to the victim and will make for a safer and more efficient operation.
It is critical to perform a thorough size-up when responding to an incident where air bags are going to be deployed. Potential hazards to members must be recognized and mitigated as soon as possible. Frequently, there are concerns about loads shifting, which can cause further injury to victims or rescuers. In industrial settings, other hazards may involve energized equipment or manufacturing processes that are still running. All members must perform continuous size-ups throughout the operation and act accordingly to ensure the safety of all involved.
Dispatch & Response
The process of response size-up should begin upon receipt of the alarm. Members should listen to the vital dispatch information to try and ascertain the type of incident, the mechanism of injury, the number of victims and other influencing factors. It is essential to start thinking about safely accessing the scene and the possible methods to remove the victim. It is valuable to have several feasible "game plans" in mind while responding, so that one can quickly be implemented upon arrival at the scene.
Air-bag incidents are often remote from the street, which makes it imperative to determine what resources may be needed and to bring in the necessary equipment right away. One of the worst things that can happen is to be unable to complete the removal process because essential equipment was inadvertently left on the apparatus. Members should confirm they are bringing air bags of various sizes, the air-bag system components, and cribbing (see Photo 1). Proper response includes ensuring members are getting off the rig with the appropriate equipment before they attempt to access the incident.
Scene Safety
The first concern for responding companies is determining whether the scene is safe. Members must evaluate the dangers that are present and promptly remove/reduce them before the extrication process begins. This type of scene is like any other rescue scene in which members must wear the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including items for blood borne pathogen protection.
After the PPE needs are met, members should determine whether it is safe to enter the environment where the victim is trapped and approach the victim. Members must be sure the risk of fire, electrical hazards and other threatening conditions are removed or significantly reduced. If the incident involves machinery, this may mean securing the power to the machine itself. Before shutting off power to any machinery, talk to someone with knowledge of the machine for advisement on whether it might cause more harm than good.
Cribbing & Stabilization
Members must safeguard the loads from shifting and potentially causing further injury to the victim. This involves using wheel chocks, step chocks and cribbing to stabilize the load and prevent vertical or horizontal movement – see article three in the series for more information. With incidents involving vehicles, members should chock the wheels and quickly minimize further movement using step chocks. After initial stabilization is achieved, members should consider what vital components or actions are required to stabilize the load during the lift. In most situations, a box crib will be utilized to achieve proper stabilization during the lift (see Photo 2). Members should try to place cribbing where it will not block the positioning of the air bags needed to perform the lift.
Several safety concerns must be kept in mind when building box cribbing. It is of primary importance that the bottom layer of the crib stack be solid in order to help spread the weight and keep the whole system solid (see Photo 3). This is especially true when the system is being constructed on soil, asphalt or other soft surfaces.
Members should take great caution when placing timbers to ensure their hand does not get caught between the load and the timber. Members should grasp the side of the timber or use another piece to push the timber into position (see Photo 4). This protects the member's hand in case the load shifts and drops.

4.1/5 rDev +7%
Appearance: 750ml corked and caged bottle. The beer pours a cloudy tawny color witha thin tan head. The head is smooth and even and has some nice staying power.
Smell: Sweet candy sugar, molasses, dates, fig, and a malty sandiness.
Taste: Very malty with caramel and molasses flavors. The beer is very sweet, especially in the middle, with a mild hop bitterness to offset the sweetness slightly. Spicy with pepper and nutmeg.
Mouthfeel: Crisp and smooth for such a sweet beer. Well carbonated and soft on the palate.
Drinkability: All around a well done beer. Balanced though still on the sweet side. Pairs well with lamb and left over Thanksgiving stuffing.

Appearance Giant, lasting head atop a gorgeous deep brownish-orange body. This was beautiful to stare at.
Smell Nice, spicy aromas of cinnamon, coriander, pepper, and some clove with the fresh malt and bread scents. I would have liked to have seen things a little stronger, but the main components of a good Abbey Dubbel are there.
Taste The first thing that struck me about this taste was the utter lack of carbonation, which Ill talk about in the mouthfeel. But, for now, lets say that the complexity of the nose did not translate into the taste. I caught some of the spices and the basic malt backbone, but the rest was absent.
Mouthfeel Very flat for a Belgian Dubbel. I expected carbonation up the nose here but instead found an uninspiring character that bored the pallet.
Drinkability This is an average Dubbel Ale. I had higher expectations after the pour, but it just didnt deliver. Good though nevertheless, just not sensational.

bottle to branded chalice
look (3/5) - pours a near-prefect amber colour. Decent clarity. Some really nice garnet highlights when held to the light. It lost some points on head: it fell a bit too quickly and left no real lacing. I've had a few of these with some really gross clumps of what I assume is trub, but not in this one!
smell (4.5/5) - the nose is really quite nice. Some dark fruitiness from the grain bill, a lot of plums and prunes (so some melanoidins, but it was overly sweet). The malt is complimented by the yeast aromatics: black pepper, clove, vanilla, some floral notes, and a touch of black licorice tone. A good hint of alcohol on that nose as well, but it plays well with the spice.
flavor (4/5) - similar to the nose, but leaning a bot more to the malt side of things. The combination is somewhat reminiscent of raisins; I suspect that this is a combination of the melanoidins and the yeast. Some of the previous yeast character remains. A good bit less dry on the palate as well. Little or no bitterness or hop flavor. Some alcohol heat lasts into the finish.
feel (3.5/5) - medium-full body and lower carbonation levels give an impression of being syrupy. Some lasting alcohol warmth.
The overall impression is really good! I've had many a dubbel, and though my favorite is still probably the Chimay Red, this one really gives it a run for its money: complex and rich, with a great spicy phenol profile, and a much more substantial feeling body (less carbonation). Not a session brew, but a near perfect cold-night beer in my books.

Review from BeerAdvocate Magazine Issue #32 (Sep 2009):
While the head does attract some attention with its lacing atop the tawny glow, the aroma clearly distracts with tones of biscuits and candied fruit. This is a malty beer with visions of dark bread and plum pudding. Smooth upon the first sip. Fluffy medium body rolls with that smoothness. Faint medicinal phenols grab onto the taste buds--this is where it becomes interesting. Alcohol does show some warmth (peppery and estery), but not so warm that it takes away from the malt base. There is some sweetness here, but in the end, it lands semidry. Nutty yeast and ripe fruit add to the complexities, and with each sip, more flavors unfold as the beer warms up a little bit more.
Very appealing without being overly complex, the dryness does more for this beer as it is able to separate itself from the sweeter Dubbels. A bit of an underdog within its style, and should be given at least a chance--we are glad we did.

A 750ml bottle poured into a goblet. Hazy orange/brown color with a thick white head that retained well. A fruity aroma, as well as a little caramel. Fruity taste, sweet, and somewhat yeasty. I enjoyed this beer quite a bit, and thought it was a bargain at $5.95 a bottle.

Large bottle, caged and corked, opened with quite a bit of energy being released. Pours murky/cloudy and chocolate in color. Lifts a long lasty puffy, dark tan head and leaves nicely developed and long lasting lacing. Nose is chocolate, raisins and rum. Flavorful and enjoyable dubbel, notes of more chocolate, pleanty of rum raisins, cafe au lait, cloves, candi sugars etc, a very drinkable and moderatly complex dubbel. Widely available and well worth a try.

First review!!
Poured out of 750ml bottle into tulip glass.
Appearance - Very lively carbonation pours a nice white, one finger head. Dark ruby/brownish in color. Foam clings to my glass, and sticks around through the rest of the experience. Great looking beer!
Smell - Smells rich of ripe, dark fruit. Raisins and plums predominate, with faint toffee and caramel notes in the background. Enticing aroma.
Taste/Mouthfeel - Just what you would expect from the looks and aromas. A good balance of dark fruits and toffee. The carbonation is as lively in the mouthfeel as it looks and the alcohol leaves a warming sensation in the finish. Chewy, delicious. They suggest sipping it slow on the bottle but that is easier said than done!
Overall - A great beer that I feel rewarded to have chosen out of the many other great Belgian doubles on the shelf. Balanced, lively, full of flavor and easily drinkable for the abv. Nice work Affligem I will look for your name in the future.

Single bottle from the LCBO. It's been a few years since I last had one of these - figured it was time to give it another go.
Poured into an oversized wine glass. Nice bright red in colour, with a thick sturdy inch and a half of head that recedes to a substantial layer. Loads of lacing sheets. A terrific looking brew.
Nose is decidedly understated - cherry, chocolate, caramel, fig. Quite pleasant, though not as potent as I remember.
Subtle again, nice and dry, with a mild acidic bitterness to the finish. A bit of cherry skin, chocolate and some other mixed bag fruits and spices provide mild character.
Mild bodied, higher carbonation, leaves a dry sensation on the tongue.
Nice dubbel, accessible, though not nearly as bold in the flavor department as I would like. Still, nice pickup - I'm going to age a couple bottles, see what happens.

From notes:

Taste & Mouthfeel: immediately reminds my why I love Belgian beer, just has that unique flavour; complex finish; more dry then I'm used to, lightly bitter; blackcurrants; fine carbonation make for a pleasant mouthfeel; some dark chocolate
Overall: an addictive beer - the taste is so interesting, and yet undefinable

Cork date of 2/03. Medium dullish brown with translucent highlights and very light sedimentation. Head rises to 1/2 an inch, lays mostly flat with some small divits. Laces in large primary rings with some drips. Cherry aromas, slight allspice and raisin. Mouthfeel is lightish, higher than expected carbonation. Flavor impression is fairly ordinary, sweet pear juice, brief impression of cocoa, slight vegetal leafiness and a bit of fizziness that seems a little wrong. Lightly astringent at the close, lemony. This beer has a reputation of as being typical of the style, I think Steve Beaumont features it in his "Premium Beer Drinker's Guide", but to me, its not as satisfying as I was hoping when I picked it up (last Summer, I think).

I have a bottling date of 1/01 and best by date of 02/28/03, let's see about that. Appears: This one Pours with excess foam when I popped the cork it had some umphhh to it, the actual body appears a murky mahogany tone with a massive tan head very amazing due to the head retention and massive thick chunky head just very nice lacing comes in thick evenly dispersed patches beautiful. Aroma: Of the glass without sediment poured in, vinous grapes, sweet sharp tones, mellow apple notes very complex and full of esters from the fruit scented phenols produced in fermentation. Glass with sediment poured in, glass claims a nutty aromatic profile is created let's see if I can detect it a deeper mustier but fuller scent both are exquisite but this one seems to be more balanced with the fruit still in existence I believe the yeast helps aroma here try it both though ways that's just my opinion. Taste: No sediment glass, very smooth carbonation tiny bubbles raisin, over ripened fruits like apples or figs here nice belgian candy sugar here, overall very nice and refreshing. There is definitely a difference to the one without sediment this one seems more robust to the palate with fruit not stealing the show, caramel roasted malts and deeper specialty malts make up a small percentage of the sweetness here, but there is a nut edge on the yeast profile not so much bready as usual but a very almond like flavor arises nice. Mouthfeel: Fluffy, creamy, medium bodied but light on the palate dessert like indulge and enjoy to the fullest, this is a beer that you can't believe the best before date completely b/c it's still amazing well past the suggested date. Drinkability: One beer to indulge in one 750ml at a time and that's about it in my opinion but surely one I would like to experience again.

Bill Sunderland to receive Arctic convoy medal at last
10:08am Wednesday 27th February 2013 in News By Mike Laycock, Chief reporter
AN ARCTIC convoy veteran from York looks set to receive a long-awaited medal within weeks.
Bill Sunderland, 86, of Foxwood Lane, is one of about 200 veterans nationally who will finally receive the Arctic Convoy Star in recognition of their bravery in atrocious conditions almost 70 years ago.
The Government announced yesterday that production has started of the newly designed decoration, along with clasps for veterans of Bomber Command.
Veterans Minister Mark Francois said that everyone who served on the convoys and in Bomber Command deserved nothing but the utmost respect and admiration, and they would begin to receive the decorations they had so long deserved in the next few weeks.
He also revealed that the families of those no longer alive would also be able to apply for the awards in recognition of their loved ones' bravery.
Mr Sunderland, a widower who was a Royal Navy signalman during the war, said: "I'm delighted. I was concerned that by the time the medals were ready to be presented, some of those due to receive them might have passed away."
He hoped the medal might be presented at a meeting of the York branch of the Royal Naval Association.
The decision to award the medals was announced by Prime Minister David Cameron in December, but Mr Sunderland said he had feared it would still take a long time for them to be made.
He has spoken previously of his disappointment that the decision to present the medal had come too late for many veterans who had passed on.
However, he said he was pleased there was recognition of the conditions the veterans went through, as they came under enemy fire while also suffering from terrible weather.
More than 3,000 seamen died over four years from 1941 on missions to keep open supply lines to Soviet ports which were dubbed the "worst journey in the world" by Winston Churchill.
Last year, The Press reported Mr Sunderland's delight after Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a decree to award him and other veterans the Ushakov Medal in recognition of their "outstanding contribution to the allied co-operation" during the Second World War.
But his joy turned to disgust in the autumn when it emerged that the British Government had blocked the Russian proposals.

Call me cynical, but reading this makes me wonder if Mr. Cameron blocked the Russian medal out of embarrassment, and quickly decided on the idea himself.
Congratulations Mr. Sunderland, I am pleased that your colleges and yourself are at last receiving some recognition. It is a shame that it is 70 years to late. As an ex serviceman I salute you Sir.

If they couldn't be given the recognition when they should have been, during or immediately after the war, I think they should tell the authorities where they can stuff their medal.
Think of all those who died between 45 and now, all who should have received this tribute but sadly died before it could be given.
Everyone of these brave men should throw these bits of metal into the Thames as a protest at the now dead commrades not been give such tribute before they died.

12 oz bottle poured into 4oz Stone inverted triangle taster
Appearance: Dark ruby brown.Thin layer of foam quickly dissipates completely. No particularly impressive in the glass. You can tell it's a Scotch Ale, but I was expecting a bit more foam.
Smell: Caramel, leather, cherries, but all muted really nicely by a punch of bourbon. Something vaguely metallic, possibly driven by the malts.
Taste: Same level of bourbon as BBA Stout. A ton of sweetness. Sweet cherries, figs, maybe even roasted plantains hiding in there. I gotta say, the bourbon is a little bit strong right now, but the toffee and caramel flavors remind us that this is a Scotch Ale.
Mouthfeel: I swear this is thicker than last year. It has more body than BBA Stout for sure. Remains thick without getting chewy.
Overall: So glad I picked this up again. I didn't fall in love with it last year, but this fresh bottle is fantastic. If it's in your market, it is well worth the $13-ish 4-pack price. I'd rank it ahead of this year's BBA Stout but just behind BBA BW. Would be awesome if this were aged in some Highland barrels.

Bottle purchased at AJ's Beer Warehouse in Henrietta, NY.
Pours a medium dark brown, slightly hazy, with a small quarter inch or so head, and no real lacing.
Smells absolutely incredible, very sweet bourbon forward, lots of vanilla, some chocolate, root beer, coconut. Just awesome.
The taste is similar, but not quite as good. Still tasty, though. An over-riding bourbony rootbeer flavor. There is the aforementioned vanilla, chocolate, and coconut, a tiny bit of oak. Very sweet and silky flavor- doesn't taste much like a traditional scotch ale, but still tastes good..
Medium bodied, a bit thicker than some of CW's other main line of BA beers. There is a low level of carbonation. This is one is really drinkable.
CW brings it again, it seems like they can't miss on their barrel program.

Picked up in trade from @FlandersNed
Drank this at nearly room temp and was fairly well blown away. This viscous concoction pours a dark amber, with minimal head and oily lacing. The nose and taste are an explosion of vanilla and caramel and just the right amount of booze. This brew was good enough that I actually had regret after drinking it - I should have shared it with a buddy. One hell of a good scotch ale.

12o bottle bought at Discount Liquor. Poured into pint glass.
Appearance: Pours a very dark caramel color with some carbonation that sticks to the side of the glass. Off-white head that retains decently.
Smell: Toffee, caramel, vanilla all come right on through. And the bourbon. Who can forget that? Some peatiness. Pretty complex.
Taste: Very much an in your face beer. The bourbon and peat smack you right away, followed with the sweetness of carmel and vanilla. This is a beer that means business.
Mouthfeel: Pretty thick, somewhat syrupy. Little boozy aftertaste.
Overall: $3.49 for a bottle well spent.

2013 bottle. Bottlecap and seal in good shape. Dark brown pour with a one-finger tan head. Cloudy appearance with lots of visible sediment throughout the beer, not just in the bottom of the bottle. Aroma features lots of sweet bourbon. A bit of sourness in the background. Nose is decent and reminds me of CW's BB Barleywine. Taste is sweet & bourbon up front that really pops. Some tanginess on the sides. A little roasty in the finish. Mostly the taste is about the sweet & bourbon. Mouthfeel is nice, pretty thick, a little syrupy. Below average carbonation. Overall it's a nice beer. 1.5 years of age haven't altered it much, from my recollection. Lots of sweetness, a little roast. Nice barrel presence.

J&C Joel has manufactured and installed several curtain and tracking systems in the newly refurbished Roundhouse performing arts venue in London's Camden Town.
J&C Joel was brought onboard by John MacKinnon, technical manager of the Roundhouse, and the project focused on a custom-made track and drape system that would withstand the rigors of touring productions while being mindful of the general Roundhouse decor. The installation was coordinated by contracts director Mark Taylor and carried out by J&C Joel's in-house installation team over a two-week period.
Three separate track positions were created, with track one extending the inner radius of the main room, running approximately 260' with a 42' radius. It is Triple-E Unirail and is fixed to the 48 small diameter spreader bars that radiate out from the main Victorian structural metalwork. Twenty-five black wool drapes were supplied to hang on these tracks. Each drape is nearly 10' wide with 50% fullness and an almost 25' drop. The tops of the drapes have golf bag hooks and there's spot Velcro on the sides to join them together. The drapes are made from J&C Joel's heavier wool chosen for its fantastic acoustic properties.
Track position two runs in line with the balcony handrail and track three follows the radius of the outer wall. A completely separate track system was supplied for each, although track two is linked with track three. The total linear length measures 853'. This is again constructed from Triple-E Unirail and attached to the small diameter spreader bars radiating out from the Victorian metalwork. Where track two becomes track three around the perimeter wall, the spacing of the spreader bars is much greater, so additional steelwork was added to spread the load.
For the balcony and wall tracks, 35 black wool drapes were installed to track two, each measuring almost 10' wide with 50% fullness and a 13' drop, manufactured to the same specification as track one's drapes.
In the separate TV studio, J&C Joel installed two 65' parallel Triple-E Unirail tracks, specially shaped to follow the curves, contours, and angles of the walls. They are filled with a black wool drape 65' wide x 8' drop and 50% fullness. The heavier grade wool was again used in this area for superior acoustics. For the same studio track, J&C Joel made a 33' x 8' drop cloth, without fullness.
Various sections of Triple-E Unitrack were also created specifically as "portable" and can be deployed in different areas when required.

Why is WSDOT
applying federal high speed rail funds to build a new siding track in the Kalama rail yard?
This project will upgrade approximately 3.8 miles of railroad siding track near the Port of Kalama. New and upgraded siding track to move freight trains off the main line tracks results in fewer delays to Amtrak Cascades passenger trains.
The End Result
Reduced congestion and reduced passenger/freight rail conflicts improves reliability for both, allowing for better movement of people and goods through the corridor.Washington benefits from critical infrastructure investments that improve mobility in congested areas along the corridor, create and preserve jobs, foster economic growth, and improve air quality across our state.
Project Benefits
What is the project timeline?
Preliminary engineering and conceptual design work began in early 2012. Environmental studies will begin in early 2013 with final design following in early 2014. Construction is expected to begin in spring of 2015 with the new siding in place by summer of 2017.
Financial Information
This project is funded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) - $34.8 million.

Many people who are unfamiliar with the Jewish culture may have curiosity about the upcoming Jewish New Year's celebrations. Here are 5 things to know about Yom Kippur and the holidays surrounding it beginning week.
1. Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, is celebrated in 2013 from sundown on Sept. 4 to nightfall on Sept. 6 and begins a 10-day period of reflection, repentance and celebration. Yom Kippur begins at sunset on Wednesday, Sept. 13. Sukkot 2013 begins in the evening of Wed., Sept. 18 and ends in the evening of Wed., Sept. 25.
2. Yom Kippur is considered the most important holiday of the Jewish year. Many Jews who do not observe any other Jewish custom will refrain from work, fast and/or attend synagogue services on this day.
3. The name "Yom Kippur" means "Day of Atonement."
It is a day set aside to "afflict the soul," to atone for the sins of the past year.
It is considered to be the time to repent sins committed over the course of the last year in order to change judgment, demonstrating your repentance and make amends; a time to apologize to both people and God for transgressions.
4. Yom Kippur is a day of fasting and prayer. Observers refrain from eating and drinking (even water) during the 25-hour fast that begins before sunset on the evening before Yom Kippur and ending after nightfall on the day of Yom Kippur, and no work is to be preformed.
5. Yom Kippur is preceded by Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year, and is followed by Sukkot, a joyous celebration five days later. The word Sukkot means booths, and refers to the temporary dwellings that observers are commanded to live in during the seven-day holiday, commemorating the forty-year period during which the children of Israel were wandering in the desert, living in temporary shelters.Jewish will construct a Sukkah, a camping-like structure in their backyard, or even in the wilderness, to put life's luxuries into perspective. It is a time to get back to basics, celebrating God and feast with family.

NEW YORK — For three years, the New Orleans Saints have spent December fighting for playoff seeding.
Home-field advantage never was out of the question and neither was a deep run.
When the Saints take on the New York Giants today at 3:25 p.m., however, it's a whole new world.
A post-apocalyptic one some Saints fans might even say.
New Orleans (5-7) is fighting not for seeding. Instead, it's fighting just to get in the postseason tournament.
This year, the Saints don't even control their own destiny.
"We obviously recognize the seriousness of the situation," Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins said. "But at the same time, it's a game. If you don't prepare for every game in that fashion, then there's something wrong. Really all we're doing is continuing in our preparation with the same way we would, which should be like it's a playoff game. And then let the rest play out."
If there's any franchise to look at, the Saints should stare straight across the field at MetLife Stadium. The Giants (7-5) were 9-7 heading into the playoffs in 2011 but had to win in December to get there. Everyone knows what happened after that – Eli Manning led the Blue Men to the Super Bowl, where they beat the Patriots.
Still, the 0-4 start all but destroyed the Saints and losses in the past two games took away all control. New Orleans would need to finish the month undefeated just to get to 9-7.
"It is (different)," Saints quarterback Drew Brees said. "This position is no fun to be in, because you feel like other people control your destiny. You always want to be in position where you're the one who's writing his own ticket."
Brees added, "There are many teams in the past that have been through situations where they have to win down the stretch and need some things to happen and sneak in. If you win four in a row going into the playoffs, you're obviously playing some good football and that's our goal."
So, for now, New Orleans can only take things as the cliché goes – one game at a time.
That starts today with the Giants, a team New Orleans has mastered in its past two meetings, including a 49-24 win over New York in 2011.
"But like every week you can only play the game that's next and this is the next one," Saints right guard Jahri Evans said. "You put a good body of work together during the week to execute your game plan and come out with a W. That's our game plan going into this week and going into all our games that has been our game plan."

Well, that was much harder than it needed to be. The UMass Minutemen pulled away from AIC in the middle part of the second half to take an 89-76 victory in their last preseason tuneup before heading to Boston for their season opener with Boston College.
Sampson Carter led the ways with 20 points and seven rebounds while Cady Lalanne (16 points, 8 rebounds) and Derrick Gordon (15 points, 6 assists) also had solid outings at the Mullins Center. Chaz Williams controlled play when the starters were all in the game, finishing with seven points, five rebounds and five assists. Williams and Raphiael Putney spent much of the second half in foul trouble, however, limiting the starting unit's minutes together.
UMass led by as many as 15 at 80-65 with 2:25 to play. But after Derek Kellog emptied the bench, the freshmen + Tyler Bergantino let the lead slip. After a brief stint with the starters, the freshmen returned and closed out the game. Demetrius Dyson finished with six points, while Clydee Santee and Seth Berger each had two.
Trey Davis broke an 0-for-14 start from three-point land with a three with 7:47 to play. Dyson and Carter added threes of their own and UMass finished a dreadful 3-for-19 from distance. On the other side, AIC made 12-of-34 from the arc and had more open shots than makes. The three-point defense needs to be better on Saturday or BC is going to make them hurt.
But that is a concern for another day. For now, UMass can take solace in a win that was secure enough that the reserves had a chance to give it away. That's a preseason win if I've ever seen one.

A Lakeland man was cited after he ran into the back of a stopped school bus, leaving several students injured.
Troopers say Ronald Szekely, 67, was driving along Main Street just after 6:30 this morning. He glanced down and did not notice the school bus stopped in front of him at Fish Hatchery Road, despite its flashing lights, and ran into the back of it.
Students from Tenoroc High School were boarding the bus at the time of the crash. Four students were taken to Lakeland Regional Medical Center with minor injuries, while two others were released to their parents at the scene with minor injuries.
Szekely was not injured. Troopers cited him for careless driving.

Congress Passes FY 2011 Budget Accord
by Charles Lemos, Thu Apr 14, 2011 at 07:11:45 PM EDT
The House and Senate passed the compromise legislation to finance the Federal government for the balance FY 2011, with 59 House Republicans breaking ranks to vote against the deal. The overall vote in the House was 260-167. Eighty-one Democrats gave House Speaker John Boehner the votes needed for the bill's passage.
In the Senate, the vote was 81-19, with dissenting votes mostly coming from more conservative Republicans. In the Senate, 48 Democrats, 32 Republicans and independent Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut voted in favor.
Vermont's Bernie Sanders voted no proving the dictum that politics does indeed make for odd bedfellows. Three Senate Democrats voted no: Ron Wyden of Oregon, Patrick Leahy of Vermont and Carl Levin of Michigan. The deal struck by the White House, House Speaker John Boehner and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid cut $2 billion in funding for non-profit healthcare cooperatives which was intended to function as a weaker version of the public option. These were much championed by Senator Sanders. Also cut were Senator Wyden's provision that would have allowed low-income earners to opt out of employer-sponsored health insurance to purchase insurance on the new exchanges. Both measures were part of the healthcare cost containment focus in the Affordable Care Act of 2010.
Rand Paul, Kentucky's libertarian Senator, despite threats to block the bill earlier in the week passed on filibustering the bill and instead allowed a quick vote following House passage a few hours earlier. Other Republicans voting no included Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina and Sen. Mike Lee of Utah.
President Obama is expected to sign the bill by tomorrow, but the debate in the nation's capital has already moved on to bigger spending battles, with a critical vote to raise the Federal debt limit, the FY12 budget and long-term deficit reduction all in play.
Twenty-eight out of the 87 freshman Republicans in the House voted no. A number of Tea Party backed freshmen said they were disappointed by the deal struck last week by House Speaker John Boehner, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and the White House. Among the Republicans who voted no were Rep. Bill Huizenga of Michigan, Rep. Allen West of Florida, Rep. Steve King of Iowa, Rep. Jason Chaffetz of Utah, Rep. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Rep. Thaddeus McCotter of Michigan, Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, Rep. Ben Quayle of Arizona, Rep. Jean Schmidt of Ohio, Rep. Mike Pence of Indiana and Rep. Michelle Bachmann of Minnesota. Huizenga, West and Quayle are freshmen. Paul and Bachmann are believed to hold Presidential aspirations while Mike Pence of Indiana is seen as possible Vice Presidential material.
The vote divided the Democratic leadership in the House with Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi voting no but the Minority Whip Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland voted to support the measure.

Red Sox break out bats for Adrian's debut
Ellsbury, Pedroia each have three hits as Boston pounds Florida
FORT MYERS, Fla. -- As quickly as the Red Sox jumped on Marlins ace Josh Johnson, Adrian Gonzalez's 2011 Grapefruit League debut came and went Saturday afternoon in a 9-2 Boston win at City of Palms Park.
Taking it slow this spring as he worked his way back from offseason surgery on his right shoulder, Gonzalez singled to the opposite field on the first pitch he saw from Johnson, who allowed five runs on nine hits in 3 2/3 innings.
"Josh Johnson is a guy who has a great fastball, so you can't give him anything," Gonzalez said. "My game plan was just to go up there and look for a fastball that I could get on top of, and I was able to execute that first pitch."

Sights & Sounds
Spring Training Info
Gonzalez's second and last at-bat came a little sooner than might have been expected, in the second inning. He hit a sacrifice fly to center that capped a three-run frame, and Drew Sutton came out to play first base before the start of the third, with Boston up, 4-1.
Johnson's first Grapefruit League start was rough on March 2 -- four runs in 1 2/3 innings -- but he bounced back to allow just one run in 3 2/3 innings to the Braves on Monday. Johnson's start Saturday more closely resembled his first.
The top two hitters in the Red Sox's lineup, Jacoby Ellsbury and Dustin Pedroia, gave Johnson the most trouble. Both went 3-for-3 off him.
Ellsbury had two doubles and a solo home run, his first long ball of the spring. He hit the homer to right off Johnson on a 1-1 count and one out in the fifth. Pedroia singled three times.
John Lackey allowed one run on six hits in 4 1/3 innings for Boston, striking out three and walking none. Both starters threw 75 pitches, and Lackey threw 49 strikes -- one more than Johnson.
The Red Sox piled on in the middle innings, scoring one apiece in the fourth and fifth and three in the sixth. The score was again lopsided, but Florida's defense was at least improved from Friday's 10-0 loss to the Mets. The Marlins made just one error Saturday: center fielder Dewayne Wise tried to double off a runner at first base when no one was covering in the second.
Up next for the Marlins: Florida returns to Roger Dean Stadium for a 1:05 p.m. ET start against the Nationals on Sunday, as Ricky Nolasco will make his Grapefruit League debut against the Nats' Jordan Zimmermann in a game broadcast on MLB.TV.
Up next for the Red Sox: Josh Beckett starts in a 1:05 p.m. ET road game against the Pirates in Bradenton, Fla., on Sunday on MLB.TV. Scott Atchison, Andrew Miller and Daniel Bard are scheduled to appear. Right-hander Brad Lincoln will start for the Pirates.

I couldn't make up my mind between
which one of the sister restaurants were better. Uchi is just as good as Uchiko. One does farmhouse style Japanese, the other more traditional in rolls and sashimi."
Dined on 2/2/2013
In the past we loved coming to
uchi. Lately, over the past year or so, I feel that the quality and the attention to detail has slipped. Uchi used to be #1 on my list of restaurants to go to in Austin. Now I feel that there are at least 2-3 restaurants I would prefer before uchi. I think it will be a while before we go back."
Dined on 1/23/2013
Wow, who would have thought the
best restaurant in Austin Texas is a Japanese restaurant. This place lived up to all the hype."
Dined on 1/20/2013
First impressions - the valet was
extremely curt and unfriendly, so much so that we opted to self-park. The hostess was efficient but seemed a bit cold. We arrived a few minutes early for our 7:15 reservation but had to wait until almost 7:30 to be seated. So, first impressions were not that great. Everything improved once we were seated, luckily. Outstanding customer service by all wait and bus staff, with everyone taking the time to explain each dish as they brought it out. All the food was fantastic and well prepared. I felt the food was overpriced, even for sushi standards, though. Also, I wished they'd had a full bar instead of just beer and wine."
Dined on 1/20/2013
smaller space with a south austin
vibe......innovative sushi"
Dined on 1/15/2013
It was not all it was hyped to be,
I'm afraid. We had reservations at 5, which is when they open. We got there at 5 to 5 and still waiting just over 10 minutes to be seated. The sushi is mediocre (I was expected to have my socks knocked off, honestly) and overpriced for dinky 5 piece rolls. They do not serve liquor, only wine and sake. After reading all of the reviews I thought I would have my mind blown by the food, but the only thing that exploded was my wallet. The only reason I rated it 3 stars is because one of their specials, something akin to Sake Salmon, was amazing. It was some the best salmon I've ever tasted. Unfortunately, nothing else that we ordered matched up anywhere close."
Dined on 1/12/2013
Uchi was outstanding! I have
boycotted fish in Austin because I can never find it fresh, but I loved everything I ate here! My boyfriend and I will definitely dine again. If you go, ask for Chester! He's the best!"
Dined on 1/6/2013
Good food with unique combinations
and presentations, but excessively over priced. I did the 10 course for two (don't recommend) with 2 drinks my bill was over 250. Not exactly a night out."
Dined on 1/6/2013
The food as always was amazing. I
didn't give it the full five stars this time because the Nigiri sushi I ordered was falling apart and more difficult to eat than the past times I have had the dish but the taste was still amazing. Our server Vanessa was very attentive and informative, and she remembered it was my husband's birthday from the note I made on my open table reservation and picked a dessert special of the day for him. Great experience."
Dined on 1/5/2013
Great food and experience. Gets
crowded, better have a reservation or arrive before it opens at five."
Dined on 1/3/2013
Terrific food and outstanding
service. Servers and food runners are extremely knowledgeable about the food that they are bringing to your table. Truly a wonderful dining experience."
Dined on 1/3/2013
Uchi was delicious as always. The
staff continues to be perfectly attentive without interrupting. They were able to add a 7th person to our table of six without any complaint or problem."
Dined on 1/3/2013
Although Uchi has the freshest
fish in town, their prices are still way too high. With a Japanese husband of 17 years, living myself in Japan for 7 and eating sashimi/Japanese food for over 25 years, I can say I know a bit about the food and culture. We eat very little sushi and when we do it is only the traditional and not American fusion. The appetizers were good and the sashimi. The choices of sake are good but also expensive. While $150 is acceptable for a special occasion meal for us, $300 is what we paid for our most recent visit there for only my husband and I. We would like to enjoy Uchi more often but the pricing is well overpriced and a noisy dining experience."
Dined on 12/30/2012
We go there regularly and have
never been disappointed--everything is always fabulous."
Dined on 12/28/2012
Outstanding!! 2nd time here and
didn't think it could be better than first, but was. We are going to make it a regular stop. Can't wait till the next visit."
Dined on 12/27/2012
We moved to Austin from another
state. We have been looking for a good sushi restaurant since we arrived here 6 months ago. This is the best sushi we have ever had, including our past state favorites. We had primarily sashimi. It was incredibly fresh. I highly recommend uchi ."
Dined on 12/22/2012
Unbelievable sushi! I wasn't blown
away by the wine list (by the way, they only serve beer and wine) but the food- wow! My boyfriend and I sat at the bar and ordered slowly and made a night of it. We eat out a lot at some higher end places, and to us the cost wasn't outrageous."

Go for the tasting menu, whose
price is hard to beat, and let your server add two or three dished if you go for the 5-course option. Lot's of fun. A vibrant place."
Dined on 12/18/2012
Uchi is one of the top sushi
restaurants in Austin and for good reason. The food is consistently excellent and they always have an extensive daily specials menu. It is busy and parking is limited, so make a reservation ahead of time and prepare to valet if you don't want to risk a short walk."

lives up to the hype. However, I was not blown away. I think Uchi is great to try once, unless of course you're extremely wealthy and don't mind the noise, hassle of reservations, and high prices. Overall, the food was really good and the service was as well."

Mostly a special occasion place,
as it's somewhat pricey. That being said, it was totally worth it. You end up ordering a lot of items, because the portions are small (think tapas). Every single thing we ordered was AMAZING. The quality of the fish is outstanding, and the flavor combinations were perfect. Service was also great. We went for my boyfriend's birthday, so they gave us a complimentary dessert (which was also delicious). The sakes and champagnes/white wines go well with most food on the menu. Definitely a must-try for Austinites. Make a reservation if you can - it's pretty popular. It also takes awhile to fully enjoy everything - we were there for a solid two hours, so don't expect to be in a hurry."

We enjoyed the chef's tasting menu
while celebrating a milestone anniversary. It was a wonderful culinary adventure with unexpected flavor combos and impeccable ingredients. We appreciated the server's clear understanding and explaining of each course. It was a memorable evening."

I've been to Uchi twice and am
very impressed with the overall experience of the restaurant. The food is consistently fresh, innovative, delicious, and visually appealing. The wonderful service takes it to another level. The waitstaff is very friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Chris waited on our table, but he was more than a waiter; he was our advisor! We had one person in our party who is primarily a vegetarian, except he does eat chicken very infrequently. This was his first experience eating sashimi/sushi. After Chris suggested the first dish which he was confident this newbie would like, we all waited to see how it would turn out. Pair a perfect suggestion with an open mind and you get a new convert!"

Perfect evening-but seriously,
when will they do something about the noise?!"

Excellent food, of course! Beindo
roll is a favorite. We had reservations, but were sat at a table in the middle of the floor. It was difficult to hear what my companion was saying the entire time. REALLY loud that night. The food makes up for any shortcomings though, as this is one of the tastiest restaurants in Austin. Still give it a 4.5 out of 5!!"

I made a reservation for my
husband's 30th birthday because we had both been hearing such great things. Uchi did not disappoint. We got the signature tasting. I was a little nervous becuase I don't like sushi, but my husband loves it, and well...it was his birthday. Not only did he love the sushi options, but I was surprised to find that I liked them too. The service was great. Each server told us how to eat everything they set down in front of us (thanks guys!!). I felt like we were on an episode of Iron Chef. The food, service, and atmosphere was great. The only negative review I had was that it was a wee bit loud when we were there- but maybe it was just the people we sat beside. Other than that it was perfect. Thanks Uchi!"

Food is great - just don't go
there thinking it's a "sushi place". It's not. It's a modern take on it. But cold dishes, hot dishes and rolls were all amazing. The avocado with shrimp, imitation crab and bonito shavings was amazing!"

Excellent sushi and sushimi,
lovely presentation and informative, helpful wait staff. I like that they carefully time the presentations of each of the chef 's tasting courses so you can savor and linger over each one. Only the noise level detracts from an otherwise superb experience. This was my first visit and I will definitely be back and recommend to others."

My first Suschi - I'll go again.
Unique items made it for me. I live in Kerrville so I will look for a special occasion. Peac, TIM"

As a sushi newbie, I really
enjoyed it. I will definitely return. The happy hour type specials that they offered made it reasonable, and explained why it was so crowded when we got there at five. Various waitstaff presented our dishes, some more informative than others. I'm looking forward to the next visit."

The restaurant was wonderful. The
food and service (Colby was our waiter's name, if I'm not mistaken) were both amazing. We got the 6-course meal, and that was probably enough food, though - thank God - we added the brussel sprouts (sp?), which might have been our favorite thing of all. My girlfriend and I both dig food a good bit, though neither one of us is particularly knowledgeable about it, but, nonetheless, we didn't feel intimidated or out of place. The wait staff gets that people are going to be somewhat clueless w/r/t the new sorts of foods that are being served up, so they don't rush their explanations. Also, we had a reservation at 8:30 on a Friday night, and, though the placed was packed, we sat down at like 8:25."

Uchi is my favorite restaurant in
Austin. First off, the red wallpaper is to die for. Secondly, the service is immaculate and the waiters and waitresses are very knowledgeable about the menu. I am a vegetarian, and the waiter guided me towards many options that were vegetarian friendly and was not critical that a vegetarian was eating a sushi restaurant. Although the restaurant is pricey, the happy hour is well worth it! I recommend making reservations about a week in advance since Uchi is very popular. If I could, I would eat at Uchi every night!"

Amazing food and wonderful
service. I am recommending Uchi to everyone I come across!"

Uchi is hands down the best
restaurant in Austin. I've been numerous times and am never disappointed. The staff is very professional and the food is just delicious. From the Hotate's to the Hama Chili to the Fried Milk........it's just the BEST!"
