Quarterly Results Vary for Retailers
October 21, 2011-- Home Textiles Today,
NEW YORK - The most recent set of quarterly financial reports from retailers brought mixed news about consumer sentiment.
Home was a star at some chains and continued to pose problems for others.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Ecommerce as well as home are among the most rapidly growing business segments for Southeastern regional department store chain Belk Inc., which saw its net income more than double during the second quarter.
• Net income up 101.6 % to $25.0 million.
• Sales up 5.6% to $831.8 million.
• Comps up 5.2%.
COLUMBUS, OHIO - Home was among Big Lots' most improved merchandise categories during its second quarter, even though it comped down against a double-digit positive same-store sales increase last year.
The retailer is also focused on absorbing its new Canadian - formerly Liquidation World - which Big Lots acquired on July 18.
At the top of the list, said cfo Joe Cooper, is merchandise. "We need to fill shelves with great quality and extreme value merchandise. Today, inventory levels are down over 70% or so compared to prior year levels. Lots of empty shelves and a fair amount of inventory that is in stores in aged, and we're moving swiftly to liquidate."
• Net income down 8.2% to $35.7 million, or 50 cents per share.
• Sales up 2.2% to $1.17 billion.
• Comps down 1.5%.
OAKLAND, CALIF. - The home business segment delivered same-store sales increases during the second quarter at Cost Plus Inc. despite shoppers' cautious approach to discretionary purchases.
The home textiles category was singled out as among the more resilient non-consumble areas for the retailer. The mix between consumables and home as a percentage of net sales was 65% and 35%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2011 versus 66% and 34%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2010.
• Net loss widened to $8 million from a net loss of $7 million.
• Sales up 3.2% to $197.9 million.
• Comps up 2.8.
GOODLETTSVILLE, TENN. - As consumables drive sales, the home department is among the discretionary areas loosing space during the second quarter.
"Basically, it is all sku rationalization," said ceo and chairman Richard Dreiling. "As we looked at home, we've made changes in other areas that have affected the business piece by piece, and we've started eliminating unproductive skus. And that is what we did in [home] in the [second] quarter."
Dreiling did not specify which home goods have been pared back.
• Net income up 3.5% to $146 million, or 42 cents per share.
• Sales up 11.2% to $3.58 billion.
• Comps up 5.9%,.
MEMPHIS, TENN. - Same-store sales in home during the second quarter declined in the mid-single-digit range at Fred's, making it the retailer's hardest-hit category.
"The challenging economic conditions coupled with low consumer confidence during the debt crisis took its toll on our customers throughout the quarter," said Bruce Efird, ceo.
He said Fred's sourcing team is "focused on lower costs within home...Home is the biggest challenge at this point in time and we're constantly making changes in our Core 5 and tweaking it."
• Net income up 3% to $5.1 million or $0.13 per diluted share compared with $5.0 million or 13 cents per share in the year-earlier period.
• Sales up 1% to $452.7 million.
• Comps down 0.4% versus.
OMAHA, NEB. - Gordman's home department was hit with a comp decline during the second quarter, and the textiles category was among the lagging merchandise areas.Dec pillows saw some uptick in August with the start of the back-to-school season, said president and ceo Jeff Gordman.
• Net income down 12% to $2.9 million.
• Sales up 3.4% to $117.0 million.
• Comps up 0.4%.
DALLAS - After a difficult fourth fiscal quarter, Tuesday Morning Corp. said it is bent on improving its performance through the back half of the calendar year in time for the holiday selling season.
"While we are disappointed with the results of our fiscal fourth quarter, we are focused on several key areas to optimize our marketing efforts, improve our customer's experience on our website and drive traffic to our stores," said Kathleen Mason, president and ceo. "These efforts, combined with disciplined cost and inventory management, and prudent capital allocation, will be our focus this year as we strive to drive sales, improve profitability and enhance shareholder value."
• Quarterly net loss of $1.4 million, or 3 cents per share, compared to net income of $1.3 million, or 3 cents per diluted share.
• Sales down 3.0% in the quarter to $194.8 million.
• Comps 4.5%.
• Fiscal year net income down 11% to $9.6 million, or 43 cents per share.
• Sales down 0.9% to $821.2 million.
• Comps down 1.2.
SAN FRANCISCO - Williams-Sonoma Inc.'s more affluent shopper flocked back to its stores and websites during the second quarter.
Sharon McCollam, evp, director, coo and cfo, explained, "The high-end consumer is doing well and our high-end products are selling well."

Hotel Palazzo Ravizza
Located in the historic center of Siena, this property has been managed by the same family since 1924 and it welcomes guests with the style and classic ambiance of a heritage hotel and at the same time with the atmosphere of an elegant and welcoming private home. Rooms are furnished in typical 20's style and decorated with frescos on the walls and ceilings. Palazzo Ravizza has a private garden with countryside views and hosts the only English Bookstore in Siena.
Hotel Tornabuoni Beacci
Located in two Renaissance palaces on one of Florence's most elegant shopping streets, the Palazzo Minerbetti and the Palazzo Strozzi del Poeta are close to all the important monuments of the city. Featuring a rooftop garden with panoramic views of Florence, the hotel welcomes guests in its elegant rooms decorated with frescos and antique furniture. Typical of historical Italian palaces, each room is different in layout and size. The historic paintings, antique pieces from the 17th-19th centuries and elegant chandeliers in Murano glass are definitely part of the charm.
Il Chiostro di Pienza
Set in the heart of medieval Pienza, the 4-star Il Chiostro di Pienza is housed in a former 15th-century Franciscan convent. As you relax in your comfortable accommodations, you will find its central location enables you to explore this Renaissance city, so well-preserved and rich in history. Hotel amenities include a terraced garden offering sweeping views of the Orcia and Asso valleys, an outdoor swimming pool and a refined restaurant serving Tuscan specialties. Though its air-conditioned rooms vary in layout and décor, all feature cable/satellite television, a minibar, and private bath with shower and hair dryer. Complimentary WiFi is available in the lobby.
River Palace Hotel
Located in the heart of the city, a few steps from Piazza Del Popolo and the wonderful Santa Maria del Popolo Church (with paintings by Caravaggio), this charming property is intimate and refined. It features a very good restaurant called Caravaggio, a nice breakfast room, and friendly staff at bar and reception. VBT has reserved only superior rooms, larger than the otherwise very small standard bedrooms. It's a great spot from which to discover the Eternal City. WiFi is free throughout and an Internet point is also available in the lobby.

CK wrote:The registration of architects was officially started in May 2008 last year... And I am still waiting for the procedure to be in place to regularize my situation.
The fact is that the RIAI has tried to prevent my practice being listed in the Golden Pages last year, and I am wondering what will happen this year. The RIAI continues to promote and defend its members but as the registration body, the RIAI has done nothing for practicing architects non members of the Institute.
As a practicing architect I know that delays can happen during the design, the construction process, and it is understandable that delays can also happen during procedures such as the registration of professionals. However, I think that the RIAI has no excuse for not changing its structure and politic towards non members. 16 months after May 2008, nothing positive has been done for architectural practices non member of the RIAI.
Why? I would have thought that the Registration Body has also a duty of care toward non members of the institute...
henno wrote:it is not in the RIAIs members interest to accept registration of new architects due to an ever shrinking market.
The RIAIs primary raison d'etre is to serve its members to the best of its ability....
two plus two equals four...
wearnicehats wrote:there are many ways to become a member of the RIAI - many more ways, incidentally, than in many other countries
Either take one of those routes and follow the procedures in place or don't. It's really quite simple and all the crying in the world isn't going to help
CK wrote:wearnicehats, I think that you do not realy know what you are talking about...
In the UK for example, experience and knowledge lead to registration. The RIAI has a very academic approach to registration. I have 5 years qualification not listed in the EU directive, and on this ground they have refused my candidature as a MRIAI.
They would like me to apply for registration through a route where I would need to work for a MRIAI architect to register as a full member. I have my own practice since 2001, I have children and I am not willing to go back to work for another architect. For this reason I want to register as per the Building Control Act 2007 (BCA 2007) without applying for RIAI membership. It is my legal right to do so...
The RIAI is the Registration Body and it should help with registration as per the BCA 2007, but instead it is only considering MRIAI applications and this is in breach with the BCA 2007.
I am not crying, I am just defending my rights...
wearnicehats wrote:can you really register with the ARB in the UK without doing an exam?
is working for a MRIAI architect part of the D2 Route?
CK wrote:An examination is necessary to register with the ARB in the UK. However, anyone with the knowledge, skills and experience of an architect would be successful.
To become MRIAI, an examination is requested, including work experience within a MRIAI practice.
wearnicehats wrote:how do you currently sign payment and/or compliance certs
CK wrote:Sorry wearnicehats, my solicitor advised me on this matter, but is is a sensible issue that I do not want to discuss in public or with someone that I do not realy know. There are many guys making illegal certifications out there, and I do not want to help anyone this way...
wearnicehats wrote:and you wonder why the RIAI wants to keep a tight rein on registration:rolleyes:
CK wrote:No... I wonder why nothing has yet been done? 17 months after having declared the registration procedure started. They should either have delaid the official start of the registration procedure, or be ready...
The situation today is: "Registration was started in May 2008, but it is not ready yet"... Do you understand the problem?
RKQ wrote:Very well said CK. I have to agree fully with the points you have raised.
Details of Technical Assessment will be issued on Monday 16th Nov.
I wonder if the fee will be similar to ARAE $11.5K?
Its should be interesting.
CK wrote:RKQ,
You forget that the €11.500 required for the examination do not include for the €1,800 lectures that will describe and explain the third part of the exam.
The total cost of the examination will be €13.300.
teak wrote:Seems this is just PR by all concerned.
The non-architects are still in the new Golden Pages.
They'll will be in next year's directory.
And, as far as the procedures of 'appeal' to be included in this register allow, will remain there.
teak wrote:John & Mary Greenhorn will still be paying thousands to draughtsmen for donkey houses.
And still more money when the planners come back with their usual bluff rebuffs and the "architect" hasn't the knowledge to calmly argue their case for them.
teak wrote:I doubt if people going to build a modest house will go to the RIAI site first looking for the famous register.
RKQ wrote:
An independent Registration body is essential - just like the UK.
PlanE wrote:In the UK architects have to pay both bodies a subscription for what is in effect the same duty: the maintenance, control and promotion of a registrar for architects. I'd be more than happy to limit my expenses right now, and I really don't see the need for dividing up the duty.
reddy wrote:O god... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_architecture
Horrible stuff! My brain melted after the first sentence. "Tarchitecture"!! ha.
gunter wrote:I though the title 'Architect' was supposed to be registered now
This is from an ad. placed by an insurance outfit called 'RenaissanceRe', in the appointments section of today's Irish Times.
Has anyone any idea what these people are talking about?
[INDENT]''We are looking to a recruit a lead technical architect to join our development department. The purpose of the role is to ensure that long-term architectural requirements for the company's applications are provided for in common design tooling and technical run-time frameworks and platforms. The successful candidate will architect the tooling and platforms such that applications can be built rapidly, with minimal understanding of the underlying technology concerns. They will also provide input to the best practice. Usage of our platforms and assist in tecnology governance across the company''.[/INDENT]
Ok, I see they've press-ganged the word architect into use as a verb in one of the sentences, which I suppose is a clue, but some of the other sentences don't seem to have any verbs at all.
Btw, in what world are the qualities of '' passion for rapid innovation, creativity and a strong belief in the entrepreneurial culture . . . '' got anything to do with becoming an insurance man?

AFC South Spin cycle: Schaub bails out Texans
The Texans' defense was bailed out by a historic performance from QB Matt Schaub, while nothing could bail out Colts QB Andrew Luck's continued turnover issues on the road.
Jaguars lacking talent but not heart
While the final results have been ugly in this lost season, Jaguars players continue to put forth maximum effort.
Rivera, Mularkey, Shurmur don't come through in clutch
Embattled head coaches have something in common: They all make late-game situational mistakes that cost their teams.
Career days for Schaub, Johnson help Texans top Jags
Andre Johnson caught a screen pass from Matt Schaub and ran 48 yards for the winning touchdown in overtime as the Texans rallied to beat Jacksonville 43-37.

Shorts caught six passes for 101 yards in Sunday's loss to Miami.||||||| The second-year pro is 75 yards away from 1,000 receiving yards.
Shorts III was active for Sunday's game against Miami.||||||| Shorts, who has 43 receptions for 824 yards and seven touchdowns this season, missed last week's game against the New York Jets because of lingering symptoms.

The harsh winter has taken a toll on all Minnesotans, but newly instated parking restrictions have made enduring it even more difficult for Minneapolis residents who were already struggling to find a place to park.
It's difficult to find a parking spot on Aldrich Avenue South in Uptown. In fact, it took Fox 9 photojournalist and truck operator Kent Peterson at least half an hour to find one on Monday -- but Minneapolis Public Works is telling drivers they'll have to brace themselves for weathering the restrictions.
"We still have 20 to 30 inches of snow cover on the ground," Mike Kennedy, of Minneapolis Public Works, explained. "When you plow that up, there's only so much snow storage on the boulevard and the streets narrow."
Those narrow roads can make a short drive through the Uptown area a nerve-wracking trip fraught with close squeezes on bumpy roads. City leaders say that presents a hazard they can't risk.
"The streets have gotten so narrow … fire trucks and other equipment can't get down them," Kennedy said.
Although Minneapolis residents have seen multiple snow emergencies to clear the streets, city officials say they still need more room to ensure public safety. That's why parking is now banned on the even side of non-snow emergency routes citywide.
"If you're on a non-snow emergency route, make sure you're parking on the odd-numbered side," Kennedy urged.
Yet, parking in densely populated areas in and around Minneapolis can be difficult in good weather, and the day-old parking restrictions are already proving to be a serious pain that can require motorists to park several blocks from their final destination.
"The hardest part is walking on the ice to get back home because it's so slippery," John Bordwell told Fox 9 News.
After a recent warm-up was followed by nearly a foot of snow, icy sidewalks are now a ubiquitous feature of most Minneapolis neighborhoods -- and Kennedy says it will be a while before that changes.
"It's kind of bulletproof," he said. "This ice pack is welded to the pavement."
Taking a stroll on ice may not be the safest, and cruising for a parking spot may take up time; however, officials are urging motorists to be patient despite those nuisances.
"Wherever it's really high demand off street parking it's where the hardships are the most but it's also where the restrictions are needed the most," Kennedy said.
The winter parking restrictions won't be lifted until April 1 unless road conditions allow.

Diner Reviews
Love this place - always great.
Ambiance is terrific and so is the food. Owner and staff top notch every time."
Dined on 8/21/2014
For several years now Glass House
Tavern was my 'go to' restaurant when I was entertaining client/guests before theatre but they really dropped the ball this time. While the bar was packed, the dining area was only about a third filled and yet the servers were still no where to be found. Even after complaining to the manager about not being able to send back two undercooked meals, I still had to get up and pour water for my guests. Dinner plates stayed on the table until we paid the check and left. Perhaps a change in management or ownership but this place has definitely lost its sparkle."

Glass House Tavern is a quiet
oasis tucked away in the hustle and bustle of New York's Theatre District."
Dined on 8/20/2014
Enjoyed a very nice dinner with my
girlfriend. We originally were going to eat there before seeing wicked on Saturday but decided to book a reservation for the next night. It was a pleasurable experience and the food was on par along with the ambience. Our server was friendly and gave us great service!"
Dined on 8/17/2014
Went to the Glass House Tavern
because it sounded good and was within walking distance to our theater before seeing Motown the Musical. We really enjoyed the food. We could hear each other well for a good conversation. Our waiter was attentive and asked what time our show was so that he ordered our desserts when we ordered our entrees. Everything was delicious . I am looking forward to going back."
Dined on 8/17/2014
I've been here for drinks before
and always happy. We went to restaurant week and had a less than stellar experience. the appetizers were great (sweet pea risotto) but the entrees were terrible. both my brother and I had the filet and it honestly tasted like old meat. Not spoiled, but not a great cut of meat. was really surprised. the waiter forgot my brother's extra side of veggies, and my brother told him not to worry about it. the desserts were ok-chocolate cake was good but nothing you couldn't find anywhere else. for the price, i would have much rather gone somewhere else."

A gem of a restaurant! Centrally
located to New York's Theatre District."

Food was very good. Quick and easy
place for pre theater dinner. Atmosphere was good and restaurant was nice. Not a memorable experience or menu."
Dined on 8/11/2014
What a nice restaurant in the
heart of Times Square. Good food, good service, reasonable prices. I work in the area and this kind of place is hard to find. I'm going to keep it on my list of restaurants to go to when I want a nice sit-down lunch that's not rushed or overpriced."
Dined on 8/11/2014
Restaurant has very good midtown
location, especially if you are seeing a Broadway show. Nice ambiance and lovely atmosphere. I was there on a Monday, so it was especially quiet. Not rushed at all and stayed to chat even after the meal was finished. A little disappointed with the size of the appetizer and desert. I ordered from the $25 lunch week menu. My mushroom ravioli was tasty, but there were only 2 small pieces. Main course of a poached shrimp salad was very good, lots of large fresh shrimp and a very tasty dressing. My desert, pineapple bread pudding, was the size of a postage stamp. Whatever there was was good, but the chef certainly could have added another spoonfull or two. I think I would go back if I was in midtown."
Dined on 8/11/2014
We found the restaurant listed for
NYC Restaurant Week and chose it for its close location to our hotel, and its promising menu. We were surprised a wine/drink list was never provided; I chose a meal only to find out I was given the wrong menu, and had to choose again. Our food was very good, the atmosphere nice, and the restaurant was very clean. Our window seats overlooked the street, so we had a nice opportunity to people watch."
Dined on 8/10/2014
We celebrated a birthday with
brunch here. The menu has a little of everything, so it was perfect, even for our two-year-old. Our server was terrific. While he didn't know the menu perfectly, he had a great attitude and sought information from the kitchen when he did not know the answers to our questions. He was very attentive as well. The space is also great. The décor is rich and comfortable, and we did not feel crowded or cramped at all."
Dined on 8/10/2014
We visited during restaurant week,
which was an unexpected bonus. Delicious three-course meals for $38. Service was very gracious, but a bit on the slow side during this visit. Will definitely visit again."

Glass House Tavern is really a
hidden gem! Fabulous food, consistantly. The service, hospitality and the wonderfully prepared dishes are always spot on and keeps me coming back. Love this place for lunch or dinner."

food was mediocre at best. took
forever for us to get have a server come to us after we were seated."
Dined on 8/3/2014
I was looking for a theater
district place to dine post theater and this restaurant was recommended to me. Our soup and salad were both tasty and delicious and our main meals were presented beautifully. My son ordered the filet minon which was definitely a great choice. I ordered the free range chicken, which I found somewhat dry. Our accompanied potatoes were both great. We split a warm chocolate cake with berries. A mite on the small side and a little stingy with the berries, but a decadent dessert. I would most definetly return to The Glass House Tavern as well as I highly recommend it.....it is a new theater district favorite restaurant!"
Dined on 8/2/2014
Snuggled in the middle of the
theater district this restaurant out performs. The menu is diverse without being overly complicated. The cuisine is well presented and the taste is devine. The wait staff was very attentive and in tune with the quick turn around for you to make that next show but they are not pushy. Two thumbs up on this performance."
Dined on 8/2/2014
There were seven of us. We were
greeting by a very friendly hostess. Even though we were early we were seated immediately. Our server was the best ever. The food and service were outstanding."

We had never been and chose the
Glass Tavern because it looked nice and the menu look very good. It exceeded our expectations. The food was terrific and the service was very good, a couple of minor things that we noticed but not enough to complain about."

We found the Restaurant week deal

My boyfriend and I went to Glass
House Tavern for restaurant week. We had a 5:30 reservation and were seated right away. Our waiter was friendly and personable and made us feel right at home. We both started out with the crab and goat cheese stuffed shrimp which was delicious. Our filet mignon entrees were my favorite part of the meal. For dessert I had a warm chocolate cake which was rather disappointing. I thought the cake was dry and was hoping for warm chocolate oozing out of the middle. My boyfriend had the pineapple bread pudding and he loved it. Overall, I was pleased with my choice for restaurant week and extremely happy with the service we received."
Dined on 7/27/2014
I enjoyed my Dinner at the Glass
House Tavern. The price fixe menu was unique and a good value. The portions were very accommodating and I was very satisfied. The filet mignon was cooked perfect, the risotta had a hint of mint to it that was unique and delicious. The pasta and eggplant dish had a sweet and spicy taste that was also very enjoyable. I would recommend this restaurant to my friends."
Dined on 7/26/2014
Visited the Glass House after the
theater. The restaurant area was quiet but we enjoyed the private feel for our dinner. Food was enjoyable and we had a very nice wait person. The bar area was very crowded when we left so I would return to visit the bar for a late night drink. Very pleasant experience."

Sunday brunch. My friend ordered
a peach bellini. Usually that's champagne with peach nectar. The waiter brought us a glass of champagne with peach schnapps. What?!? Sent it back. The waiter acted like we were hassling him. Then he read off the specials. I asked if I could get an omelette with spinach and tomatoes. It wasn't on the menu but, hey, most kitchens have spinach and tomatoes. He literally yelled "NO!" at me. My friends and I were taken aback. His style was totally gruff, unfriendly, and way below what you'd expect at a restaurant like this in a neighborhood like this. The whole experience was unpleasant and bizarre. Will not go back."

We had friends staying at
Timesqure and wanted to find a restaurant that serves breakfast for a group of 8. We were pleasantly surprised to find this place in the heart of Timesqure with nice ambiance.

Food was very good but service was

For the first time at the North Dakota Veterans Cemetery every single grave site is adorned with a wreath.
Not everyone could attend the Wreaths Across America ceremony this weekend, but the act of placing a holiday wreath on every grave site has had quite the impact on loved ones near and far.
Every veteran who is buried in the state veterans cemetery now has a holiday decoration just in time for Christmas.
And it's quite the sight to see.
"It shows the community did something that is very important, very special, right when we came through the sun just broke through, just glistening on the wreaths and on the snow, it's just gorgeous." says Melanie and Rick Willoughby, Mandan.
Dozens of family and friends visited the Veterans Cemetery Sunday to see the holiday wreaths for themselves.
With nearly five thousand veterans buried here, many loved ones who live nearby say they feel honored to be able to visit those they have lost.
"My best friend for life was in Desert Storm and she died from breast cancer last year, so it's just everything to come out here, my mom's out here, my aunt, another best friend's mom so a lot of our loved ones are here, we're fortunate we live right here." says Melanie Willoughby.

Green Air Fresheners
Q Is it true that plants can clean the air in my house?
A "Plants can indeed improve your air quality," says Bill Wolverton, a retired NASA researcher who has done extensive experiments with plants in closed environments. In fact, he adds, "In the grand scheme of things, they could survive without us, but we certainly couldn't survive without them."
If your home is typical, it contains trace levels of pollutants such as formaldehyde, benzene, and trichloro- ethylene, which can waft into the air from cleaning products, dry-cleaned clothes, and other sources. Certain plants, happily enough, like to siphon such chemicals out of the air. As their leaves release moisture, they also absorb the pollutants, which then get broken down inside the plants. In one of Wolverton's studies, plants removed 99 percent of the formaldehyde in a room in just four hours.
The best pollution-busters include Boston fern, date palm, bamboo palm, Janet Craig, English ivy, weeping fig, peace lily, areca palm, corn plant, and the lady palm, as well as spider plants and philodendron. Wolverton recommends about two to three plants per 100 square feet. Try placing them where air circulates. It's best to avoid plants with flowers, since the pollen may trigger allergies. And since damp dirt can breed mold and mildew, sprinkling some aquarium gravel onto the soil will keep the air even cleaner.
Natural Sunscreens
Q Every sunscreen I see contains synthetic chemicals. Are there any natural versions?
A Yes, but you may not like them: The only truly natural sunscreens are titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, the thick white mineral-based substances that lifeguards rub onto their noses.
"If you don't mind having your entire face white like a Kabuki actor's, they work perfectly," says Dennis Sepp, a chemist who is president and formulator of ShiKai skin care products in Santa Rosa, California. It's possible to find sunscreens with lower—and less visible—concentrations of these minerals. But you might as well stick with standard sunscreens; there's little evidence that the chemicals in them are hazardous to your health.
Some people do suffer allergic reactions from products containing para-aminobenzoic acid, or PABA. But the workhorse of many sunscreens these days is a chemical called Parsol 1789, which hasn't been shown to cause problems, says Jon Starr, an assistant professor of dermatology at Stanford University.
Your best bet is to choose a product with a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 15. And be sure to rub on a lot of it—the biggest mistake most of us make is using too little.
Stopping Inflammation
Q I've heard that inflammation of the arteries can raise my risk of heart problems. Can I reduce inflammation naturally?
A Yes, you can—and most of the things that lower inflammation are good for you in all sorts of other ways, too. (In fact, if we didn't know better, we'd think the whole inflammation story was cooked up by resear...

St. Martin's Press, New York
"Deep in the Jungles of Peru the race of the
century is under way to locate a legendary Incan idol.
An artifact carved out of a strange kind of stone, the idol could
be used as the basis for a terrifying new weapon…" So reads the
endpaper of Matt Reilly's high adrenalin, high testosterone thriller, Temple.
Reilly introduces the reader to his hero, William Race, a
professor of ancient languages, who is hired by the U.S. government to
translate an ancient document. This
document will lead Race and an intrepid band of scholars and military to
an even more ancient temple in the Andes, wherein lies the
aforementioned Inca idol. But
before the world can be saved from the awesome power of the doomsday
device that can be activated only by the stone from which the idol was
made, Race and company face man-eating crocodiles, giant black leopards
with almost human-like intelligence, anacondas and best of all, really
evil neo-Nazis.
This is
not a book to read if you wish to learn more about Inca archaeology (or
any other kind of archaeology), but it can easily become a guilty
pleasure. The narrative
races along at breakneck speed (with the quality of the writing often
falling in its wake) and William Race, who seems at first to be a bit of
a Casper Milquetoast, quickly turns into an action hero that makes
Indiana Jones look like a wimp. You
may not remember much of the plot five minutes after you've finished
reading Temple, but you will have a
heck of a good time while you're reading it!

Visited this place for the first time over the weekend and it was well worth the stop. Destihl, Three Floyds, Epic, Founders, Hop City among many others on tap. Looks like they get some gems in from time to time. Knowledgeable staff and great prices! Only had the Irish Nachos which I highly recommend. Will definitely stop again on my next visit through Terre Haute!

Great place to go if you enjoy trying new beers. Last time I went they had 3 Floyd's, Triton, Founders, Upland CV, and other local favorites on tap.
Atmosphere: I gave this a 2.5 because many of the older locals who come here can be unfriendly to the younger generation of beer drinkers. I've met a lot of snobs at Sonka's. 2.5 is very generous, the ping-pong table and good looking waitress bumped it up to a 2.5.
The quality of beer and food is great. Not overly expensive. Most of the staff is friendly. If it wasn't for the poor atmosphere, I'd come a lot more often.

Ughhh. Disappointing. I don't frequent terre haute for a reason...it sucks. Proof positive once again.
I would once in a while visit this place while in college. The best "beer bar" in town- that's not saying much considering the town we're talking about.
Anyway, all previous impressions aside...I went in to this with a fresh perspective and clean slate. No go amigos, no go.
While a relatively decent tap selection (Alpha King, Founders Breakfast Stout,Chimay Red), the staff had no idea what a "good" beer is. I was at first pressed to get a Spaten Dunkel (on special for $1.75) because it is "a really good German dark beer". I opted for an Alpha King, then the Founders Breakfast Stout. Both tasted awesome, its apparent that they at least do some line maintenance.
Food was ordered to go- what I thought was a turkey and havarti on pumpernickel. What I got was a horrible failed attempt at something, something pumpernickel. It was literally just pumpernickel. Sad.

This was my home away from home when I lived in Indiana. I put a lot of work in there. Many, many, many pints. I even dug the corner table out of the garbage bin out back one day when I realized it had been replaced with a new one. I had shared so many good times at that table with lifelong friends that I couldn't see allowing it to be discarded. I've seen staff turn over there several times over. I've even had the misfortune of losing a longtime Sonka's manager/bartender and friend to an untimely demise. Sonka's is the place to which I refer in so many stories--most good, a few bad, but all memories that lie in my heart where they'll stay forever. The beer selection used to be (meaning '99, '00, '01) more extensive. Offering more bottles than taps. Nowadays, Sandy, the owner, appears more interested in having more tap varieties, which, obviously, cuts down on the number of overall varieties that are available. A lot of the best Midwest offerings as well as some other American regional and international favorites are always ready to be poured for you. The atmosphere smacks of a neighborhood pub that's seen a lot of history. For nostalgia lovers, you'll have a soft spot in your heart for this place even if it's the first time you've ever been there. I've often said that Sonka's is more of an Irish pub than most Irish pubs--and I've been to several pubs in Ireland. I love how
Sonka's appeals to the college student, the blue collar worker, the educated professorial types, and the community leaders alike. Rarely ever any trouble. Even on the most busy days like the Indiana State University pub crawl and St. Patty's day. Patrons are generally very welcoming and easy-going. Just a magnificent atmosphere and a place to make great memories.

It's a wednesday night around 945 pm in southern Indiana and I'm thirsty for a decent craft beer. I was surprised to find a decent craft beer taplist at what appears to be just your local corner pub. They have a nice selection of good bar food and about 17 taps. They roll up the sidewalks in this part of Indiana, so this place was like an oasis for a midweek late night stop. The bartender is a huge beer fan and is in the know about beer. They have growlers available of the tap beer. Just a nice casual, laid back place for a good beer and a bite to eat.

So this place is awesome, It is my first "regular" pub. I am normally there on Tuesday nights for an hour or so and have a couple beers, and loaded dogs @ $1.65 and typically have specials with about 5 or 6 beers @$2.75 and one i have seen as low as $1.75.
They have a solid line up and get a limited bottle supply. They were the only place in the area to get King Henry, also they had BCBS. They are all around solid in the brew and food category in my book. There are New tappings every Wednesday and they also have Firkin Fridays, along with other little things throughout the year.
The service is great, I sit and talk with Jareb when I am there and enjoy my night. I would recommend this to anyone passing through.
Just as a note there is a $10 minimum for credit card charges.

Stopped in around 8:00 on a Thursday night with a co worker on our way to Illinois.
Passed by all the chains near the interstate to a more rustic/rough/authentic area of town (which is what I prefer).
Upon opening the door I was quickly reminded of the backwards law in Indiana that allows people to pollute the air and ruin a good beer experience with cigarette smoke. Some saving grace that the place wasn't too full and they had another half of the building where we could eat and nobody was sitting/smoking (and you can't smoke during lunch hours)
Playing Sirrius XM Lithium station with 90's grunge/modern rock which put my coworker in heaven.
Service was prompt and friendly. 33 taps and when I asked the bartender for a list, he pointed to his head. I went back into the bar, looked at the impressive list and went with 3 Floyds Alpha King (twice). Other options included...
Glazed Ham Porter
Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale (one of the most popular *craft*)
NB - Never Summer, 1554
New Holland...
Mad Hatter
Charkoota Rye
Cabin Fever
Upland Winter Warmer
Oaken Barrel Superfly
Oak Aged Yeti
GI Pere Jaques
Dark Horse Fore Smoked Stout
Lots of other imports available.
The food was excellent for bar food. I went with the Irish Stew and the fried cod sandwich with homemade chips and coleslaw.
Our eventual female server was attentive but didn't know too much about the beer.
Given where I was, I was thrilled to find this place and would return and recommend it to any beer lover traveling through the area.

Sonka's is one of the bright spots of Terre Haute. It is a very relaxing pub atmosphere, with a couple of pool tables, darts, and every now and then some ping pong or bags. The service at Sonka's is typically very good, though every now and then they have a hard time handling unexpected rushes, which is reasonable given that there are typically no more than 4 or 5 bartenders/servers working at any given time. The food is great, if you like spicy, make sure to get the leprechaun sauce. The White Devil chicken sandwich is a personal favorite of mine, with extra leprechaun sauce and blue cheese, it simply cannot be beat!
Sonka's always has a decent selection, and can usually pull some of the more well known special releases, but doesn't typically get many rare taps (though they have released 2006 Bourbon County bottles and Imperial Brown Goose randomly).
Having recently left Terre Haute, I am still looking around for my new "Sonka's" in my area, but I've yet to find anything that quite compares. A must stop for Terre Haute!

KUSA - With a trip to the Super Bowl on the line, the Denver Broncos held a 13-3 lead at halftime Sunday against the visiting New England Patriots.
The Broncos scored on their last two drives of the half as they accumulated 270 total yards in the first half. The Denver defense kept Tom Brady and the New England offense at bay and just 119 yards.
Peyton Manning was 17-of-24 passing for 210 yards and a touchdown pass, while Brady was 9-of-15 for 114 yards. The Patriots running game was stuffed by Denver, and LaGarrette Blount had just six yards on five carries.
Denver settled for a second field goal on their final drive of the first half to take a 13-3 lead with 25 seconds to play in the second quarter. The Patriots weren't able to score in the closing seconds.
Making a statement drive, Denver went 93 yards in 15 plays to take a 10-0 lead with 7:50 left in the first half. Manning (44 yards on 4-of-7 passing) and Moreno (41 yards on four carries) teamed to keep the drive rolling. Denver converted three third-down plays and chewed 7 minutes off the clock. It tied as their longest drive of the seasons.
New England responded and drove into the red zone for the first time. But a Robert Ayers sack of Brady on third-and-8 moved the Patriots back to the Broncos' 29-yard line, and New England had to settle for a 47-yard field goal to narrow the gap to 10-3 with 3 minutes left in the first half.
The Patriots went three-and-out on its first two drives, and Denver took a 3-0 lead on Matt Prater's 27-yard field goal after the Broncos' second drive stalled in the red zone.
Neither team scored on their first possession. The Broncos' defense started strong, forcing Brady to a three-and-out, but Manning and the offense couldn't respond as their drive stalled at the Patriots' 48-yard line. It was the first time Britton Colquitt punted since Dec. 29.

Rich Thompson of Triopia High School in Concord, IL was named the Chicago Bears High School "Coach of the Week" for Week 3.
Fifth-year Triopia Coach Thompson has won 43 of the 50 games he has coached at the school since 2007. Last Friday's 22-21 victory over second-rated Mount Sterling High School was one of Thompson's best overtime wins. Triopia was ranked No. 5 in the Associated Press Class 1A rankings last week.
The Triopia program is steeped in tradition with over 350 wins since 1959 and three state titles. In addition to being the head football coach, Coach Thompson also serves as the school's athletic director and baseball coach.
In honor of Thompson, $1,500 will be donated to Triopia High School's football program. Thompson will be invited to the Bears-Seahawks game on Sunday, December 11, and will be recognized during an on-field ceremony that day. He will also receive a framed certificate and will have the opportunity to attend a Bears practice and "chalk-talk" with Bears Head Coach Lovie Smith and other 2011 "Coach of the Week" honorees.
The Chicago Bears "Coach of the Week" program entered its 16th season this year. The program honors outstanding Illinois high school coaches who develop players' football skills and knowledge, character, leadership, discipline, and teamwork abilities. Other criteria considered include unique coaching methodology, community and off-field components, school and community support, volunteerism, and, most importantly, contributions to players' long-term success on and off the field.
The program runs for nine weeks from Aug. 29 through Oct. 24. Coaches were nominated by a panel of local prep authorities, and the winning Coach of the Week is selected each week. The Chicago Bears will make a $1,500 contribution to the football program at each winning coach's school.
Since the program's inception, the Bears have donated over $198,000 to Illinois high schools in support of their football programs. For more information, log on to www.chicagobears.com/community or call the Chicago Bears Community Relations department at (847) 739-5308.

New Malden motorcyclist fined after dangerous overtake in Richmond ends in crash
Updated 6:18am Wednesday 16th April 2014 in News By Amy Dyduch
A motorcyclist who crashed into a car in Richmond has been fined for driving dangerously.
Bartlomiej Ziolkowski, 36, must pay £2,000 in compensation after he tried to overtake a car in Kew Road in May last year, crashed into it and caused injury to the driver.
The motorcyclist, of High Street, New Malden, was also fined £300 and ordered to pay a £30 victim surcharge when he appeared at Lavender Hill Magistrates' Court on Friday, April 11.
He did not have insurance at the time and has been banned from driving for three months.

There is no real disincentive to him to ride without insurance again.

Uninsured, not British, and this is the paltry penalty he got?

Emergency rooms across the country are seeing a spike in flu cases.
Health experts say there is an influenza epidemic in the United States.
Good Day NY spoke with Dr. Robert Glatter, Emergency Medicine Physician-Lenox Hill Hospital, about his experience handling the recent increase in flu cases and what everyone needs to know about the epidemic.
"We're seeing a lot of flu cases early on. Typically the flu season really starts late January," said Dr. Glatter.
"If you got the flu shot, it's not likely you'll get the flu. But vaccination rates are low; only 36-37 percent and that's what ultimately causes the severity of these outbreaks."
So if you get the flu, what should you do?
"Get plenty of rest, plenty of fluid and try to avoid people who have active symptoms," said Dr. Glatter.

The Orchestre symphonique de Montréal revisits Sokolović: once again musicians will attack the Montreal composer's Concerto pour orchestre, originally premiered by the OSM in 2007 at Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier (Place des Arts) and performed during the Orchestra's tour that year. This time French conductor Stéphane Denève will lead the orchestra in a concert that will also feature time-honoured classics of French modernity and Russian romanticism.
Sergueï Sergueïevitch Prokofiev, The Love for three Oranges

Founded in 1934, the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal has performed at major international venues. It continues to revivify the Montreal public's engagement with the music of yesterday and today.
The SMCQ has been moving in step with the lively rhythms of new music for almost fifty years. With its regular concert season, its Série hommage (Homage Series), an international festival, and a young listener's programme, the society has served both as a platform for today's composers and as a window on creative works for everyone.

We treated ourselves to a mini suite which had a limited view obscured by a lifeboat but this was no problem. The suite consisted of a corner seating area, twin beds, fridge, TV as well as a small bathroom with shower, toilet, wash hand basin and hairdryer. The water was always hot and we had the added luxury of a heated floor. Some of the little perks of the mini suite were a bottle of fizz on arrival, fresh fruit every day, complementary thermos mugs (for filling up with tea or coffee), dressing gowns & slippers, kettle etc and a visit to the bridge. The fridge was handy for storing our duty free wine in as cost of drinks on board was astronomical! This was permitted as long as you didn't drink your own alcohol in public areas.
The public areas were spacious and there was a large panoramic lounge which was lovely just to sit in and watch the world go by. The dining room again was spacious and breakfast and dinner were buffet style and you could sit where you want. The food was delicious with plenty of choice - the sweets were to die for! Dinner had allocated tables with two sittings, at 6.30pm and 8.00pm and there was a set menu although if you didn't like what was on the menu, there was always an option.
Entertainment was virtually nil apart from a singer most nights but this was no problem as there was always plenty to do talking with other guests etc. There was a ceremony up on deck to celebrate crossing the Arctic Circle which was fun; a Russian came aboard with giant crabs for us to see and on another occasion we were given a sample of Norwegian cod liver oil washed down with schnapps!
Other useful facilities were a self service launderette and Internet access. A daily news letter was printed which was very helpful and various other leaflets were available too.
Of course the highlight of this voyage was the chance to see the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) and our wish was fulfilled on several occasions. This was fantastic despite being woken in the middle of the night to go on deck to see them!
I think what we liked most about this holiday compared with other cruises, especially Ocean going ones, was the lack of entertainment; being pestered by waiters all the time trying to sell drinks; not having to dress for dinner in the evenings and to be amongst like minded people interested in everything we saw.
I would thoroughly recommend Hurtigruten. We are now looking into going on one of their smaller ships, M/S FRAM, possibly in 2014, either round the British Isles or the Canary Isles/Madeira and the Azores.
