Residents slam plans for chicken rearing buildings in Knapton Green
Updated 2:40pm Tuesday 18th February 2014 in News
A PROPOSAL to build six chicken rearing buildings near Canon Pyon has not gone down well with villagers.
James Verdin has submitted plans to house the units - each almost 100 metres long and 20 metres wide - on land at Knapton Green.
The use of the buildings, Mr Verdin says, is for the rearing of broilers.
If permission is approved, each unit would house up to 40,000 broilers - bringing the total number up to 240,000 for the whole site.
Susan Seaman, who lives opposite the land, said: "I have lived here for 44 years and, while I am used to agricultural smells, such an enormous development, completely out of keeping with an area in which residential development is banned, should not be locally acceptable, especially when the chicken units are mucked out.
"The proposal is nothing short of an industrial scale complex ."
A total of 49 objections were submitted to Herefordshire Council, including one from Birley with Upper Hill Parish Council.
Michael Hopkins, clerk to the council, said that the scheme will have an adverse affect on the surrounding area.
"The land has standing water during periods of heavy rain, which eventually soaks into the ground," he added.
"If this and other water from the site channelled into Honey Lake Brook, it will no doubt exacerbate the flooding problem on the A4110 and on some of the houses in Knapton Green."
Mr Hopkins added that the Parish Council was not convinced that the attenuation ponds would resolve the problem.
No date has been set yet for when the application will go before Herefordshire Council's planning committee.

Mr Herefordian, broiler units don't provide full time jobs for locals, they provide extra cash for sub-contractors. Many broiler units only employ a manager - hardly of great benefit.

Is that for real? That's 65+ feet!
Your average house is only about 8 metres tall, no wonder people are complaining!!

Broiler units are a blight. They look monstrous and they ming when they're cleaned out, as well as the extra traffic generated.

Also there will be a huge increase in traffic on the day the birds are taken to slaughter 240,000 birds about every 42 day. This will cause 68 extra movements of HGVs on 1 day. These will travel on A4110 through Knapton,Canon Pyon, Portway which already have road safety issues due to narrowness, school bus stops. Alternatively they'll go via Monkland and Leominster to A49 adding to traffic problems there.
All this for cheap chicken and only 2 full time jobs!
Perhaps you'd not be so keen either if you had to contend with this.

Its a headline that brings to mind the 2004-05 offseason, when Ranger g.m. John Hart stated publicly that the Rangers would be "bottom fishing" in the free agent market.
The Rangers are interested in Ryan Raburn.
Raburn turns 32 in April, is a righthanded hitting corner outfielder who has also played all the infield positions except shortstop, and who had an 891 OPS in almost 300 plate appearances in 2009.
Why is he on the market? Well, as Baseball Nation explains:
Raburn's 2012 campaign was hampered by injuries, including a thumb sprain that caused him to miss 31 days and quad problems that cost him 54 days. When healthy, he hit just .171/.226/.254 in 222 plate appearances.
My guess is that the Rangers are interested in him on a minor league deal, or perhaps, if nothing else pans out, as a platoon partner for David Murphy in left field.
So, yeah. Ryan Raburn.

The epic journey from St Petersburg to Moscow can be undertaken with relish by any true romantic. It's an adventure which begins on the midnight train at Moscow Station in St Petersburg, where you leave behind the beautiful Imperial city, and ends in bustling Moscow, a metropolis still willing to evoke the harshness of the Soviet regime in the odd dusty corner.
This book is the story of my own personal discovery of Russia, and a journey which led to many more throughout this beautiful country and the former USSR.

EFFINGHAM — Sunday's winter storm dumped 8 inches of heavy snow in Effingham by 7 a.m. Monday. As winter lingered into spring, the late snow canceled schools and made for some sloshy driving conditions, but that didn't stop some from having fun with the late winter surprise.

Misfits "Christmas Special" & "Vegas Baby" ReviewsA tv review article by: Felicity Gustafson, Nick Hanover
2.07: Just before Christmas, the gang meets Seth, a drug dealer who is able to deal powers after being struck in the storm.
Vegas Baby: Nathan, armed with a new superpower, has got a plan to go out in style. His target - Las Vegas. With Marnie and little Nathan Jr. in tow, Nathan plots to use his new superpower to scam the casinos. As ever with Nathan, it's a sure-fire plan that can't fail. Except it does...and he finds himself on the run. Short on options, Nathan tries to call an old friend...
The new season of Misfits begins this fall.
Felicity Gustafson:What'd you think of it overall?
Nick Hanover: Well, I have a lot of problems with the Christmas special.
Felicity: Problems like what?
Nick: I found it to be an incredibly uneven episode and I'm still not entirely sure what they were trying to do with it. Robert Sheehan leaving the show has probably messed up whatever their plans were even more now.
Felicity: Oh, I'm sure his leaving screwed up their plans. He's one of the major characters everyone loves.
Nick: I like the basic idea quite a bit though. The powers have been mixed blessings for the gang since the beginning so of course selling them would have a certain appeal.
Felicity: I figured at some point they'd lose them. Selling them hadn't really occurred to me.
There's always one character who has a power that'll negate others though. I suppose the Misfits version was taking the powers away.
Nick: Every super hero series at one point or another deals with what would happen if the heroes lost their powers, so this fits in with that. Like you, I didn't necessarily think it would be by selling them, but given the way this show works it makes perfect sense.
Before we really dig into the problems, though, there were some great moments in this episode.
Felicity: The birthing of the alien part might've been my favorite.
Nick: I think Simon's sexual issues may have been my favorite. That was just such a unique spin on the time traveller concept.
Felicity: Being jealous of yourself is probably pretty rough.
Nick: Simon has so much self-loathing anyway but now he is literally loathing a version of himself that makes his current self look pretty paltry.
I think that may be the most confusing sentence I have ever written.
Felicity: You sorta have to watch the episode to understand the sentence. Time traveling does that.
Felicity: He eventually did better, so I'm guessing he got over his jealousy issues.
Nick: I don't know that Simon can ever completely get over his issues. That's part of what makes him such a great character in a way.
Felicity: Well someone has to worry about every little thing. Also, it just wouldn't do to have a leader that wasn't broody.
Nick: Superman, by contrast, doesn't really seem to have any issues. Other than trying not to accidentally kill people just by shaking their hands.
Felicity: Superman's a bad example. He's written to be perfect, so he doesn't HAVE issues.
But I'd love to read an issue where Superman had a bad hair day.
Nick: Right, I'm just saying that Simon is a little more relatable as a character. Although I would also love to see Superman have a bad hair day.
In fairness though, you could claim the bulk of the '90s was a bad hair day for him, what with the mullet and all.
Felicity: Hmmm, good point.
Nick: I also felt that the B-story with Elliot was great.
Misfits likes to deal with people who have decent enough intentions who become cult figures due to their powers, so it's natural that one of those characters would turn himself into the second coming.
Felicity: They walked a pretty fine line with this episode. I can see where it would piss off a lot of religious people. I was expecting some sort of Jesus figure though. It was inevitable.
Nick: I thought they handled it well, because they were pretty blunt about the fact that this guy was just one in a long line of folks using other people's faith to rip them off.
They weren't judging the religion, per se, but the people who take advantage of it.
Felicity: Eh, I was thinking more like Simon's line of, "we're going to kill Jesus." Anyone who'd watched the episode would know he wasn't really talking about Jesus, but it could be misconstrued. Generally anything that can be, will be. The show wasn't religion bashing.
Actually, I thought the wreathe landing on his head after he died was hilarious. It was typical Misfits humor.
Nick: You could take so much of Misfits out of context and offend anyone you wanted to. Hell, you wouldn't even have to take a lot of it out of context at all.
But the unevenness of this episode starts to become too much for me when we get to the little details, which is unfortunate. The biggest might be Nathan selling his power for $2,000 pounds.
Felicity: Even Nathan wouldn't be that dumb. Is that what you're getting at?
Nick: Exactly. Usually the show is smart enough to not make Nathan too stupid and that was taking it way too far. I get that Nathan was doing his little bit to help Marnie in the only way he knows how, but Nathan is remarkably good at getting more out of people than he should be able to...yet he only gets $2,000 pounds for what is arguably the greatest power any of the Misfits have?
Felicity: This is true. That was a pretty big character flaw. It was rather endearing to see Nathan actually care about something though. I approve of his and Marnie's relationship - however odd it may be.
Nick: Their relationship works for me too, it's the right mixture of spontaneous, quirky and lucky. It's too bad we won't be seeing much more of it.
Felicity: Yeah, it just figures he'd be leaving. Oh, well.
Oh, and I finally realized why I didn't really feel anything for Nikki's character... she doesn't last long enough...
Nick: Now you see what I meant about how comments I made last time would seem mean after you'd seen this episode.
Felicity: Yes, your vague, spoiler hintings.
Nick: I can't help myself. Plus it was the last opportunity I'd have!
But I'm not totally convinced that was the end of her. After all, that new guy has to have a power of some sort, right? So maybe he got Curtis' power.
Felicity: I don't know. Maybe they'll bring something entirely new into the mix. It's hard to say. Maybe they'll end up going on some mission to get Curtis' power back.
Considering the way relationships pop up so fast, it's entirely possible that Curtis might fall for someone else in the next few episodes.
Nick: That's true, Curtis doesn't exactly have a long attention span in that area.
I'm a little concerned about the "swapping powers" gimmick introduced at the end here, too.
Felicity: I think they just felt they needed something new.
Nick: I get that they feel the need to switch things around now that the community centre aspect is theoretically done with, but it kind of reeks of Heroes...and we all know how well that worked out.
Felicity: It could potentially be the downfall of Misfits, but we'll only know if we keep watching. So far, Misfits have at least been keeping their characters interesting. I think Heroes grew too big, too fast.
Nick: Fair enough. And Misfits so far has managed to overcome most of its obstacles.
But there's now that whole added bonus of Sheehan being out of the picture.
Felicity: It'll be a struggle to keep it going without him. He was 75% of the comedic value.
I was a little surprised that Curtis didn't blame Nathan more for Nikki's death.
Nick: As you've pointed out, Curtis may have already moved on.
Felicity: True.
Nick: But speaking of moving on, shall we discuss "Vegas, Baby"?
Felicity: I'm still not exactly sure how to feel about "Vegas, Baby" which might have actually been because of the length.
Nick: Trying to cram in the departure of a major character into ten minutes is a little odd.
Felicity: It seems a little fitting given the pacing of Misfits.
Nick: So, for those who haven't seen it (since we are now onto covering new material, yay!), "Vegas, Baby" finds Nathan and Marnie going to Vegas on...a honeymoon? Vacation? Who knows?
Felicity: I'm not really sure how much time has passed either, considering Nathan's newfound facial hair.
Nick: Nathan being Nathan, he decides this is the perfect opportunity to strike it rich by utilizing the new power he acquired after the Christmas special. Following the trend of things we're not sure about in this webisode, I'm not completely clear on what Nathan's new power is. I mean, I get the basics of it -- apparently he can conjure things?-- but it doesn't seem to be very well thought out.
Felicity: I can't tell if he has the power of creation or not. At first I thought it was illusion, but after shitting out a rabbit, he did make mention of his ass actually hurting, so I guess that's out.
Nick: Unless he just had that rabbit in his pants the entire time. Don't worry folks, this doesn't make much more sense after you've seen the thing.
Felicity: With Nathan, you never know.
Nick: But basically he seems to be able to make things come into being...or changes them somehow...
Felicity: Maybe he alters matter... I'm not sure. Either way, he's leaving, so I guess it's an irrelevant point. The world may never know for sure.
They did make a good excuse for Sheehan not taking part in future episodes, though I'm assuming he might pop in for a guest appearance at some point.
Nick: The best part of this episode is the way it leaves things open for Nathan to come back. He's just in jail. Not cryogenically frozen. Or stuck at the bottom of the ocean. Or whatever they would have had to do to erase him.
If he still had his immortality, I mean. Hopefully the other misfits picked better powers, though.
Felicity: I am really curious to see what everyone picked as far as powers. Before they were given powers. This time they get to choose the powers they'd like to have. It's a big change.
Nick: Though they are just choosing from a pool of available powers, so they could all wind up with abilities like Nathan's.
Or milk boy.
Felicity: Lactose intolerance is a power all by itself when milk boy's hanging around.
Nick: I wonder if all of Elliot's abilities disappeared when he died? Because he had some awesome ones.
Felicity: They probably did. I can't imagine they magically transported back into their little boxes or something. He did have some pretty useful ones.
Nick: Unless they got harvested somehow. Like organ donation, a la Nikki.
Felicity: Hmm, well that's an interesting concept.
Nick: So let's take our stabs at what everyone's going to get...
I think Simon's going to get some kind of strength or reflex thing based on how his future self was, or maybe he can neutralize others' powers since Alisha had no effect on him.
Felicity: I could see the neutralizing thing. Not sure about the strength. Hmmmm. Maybe he gets visions or something. Hard to say.
Someone has to pick flying. If it's an option. And it'd be interesting to see a shapeshifter.
Nick: I could see Alisha picking flying.
Or maybe Curtis. Since he was a runner before. Alisha would probably make more sense as a shapeshifter the more I think about it.
Felicity: I'm not sure. I guess we'll have to see. There's just such a huge pool of possibilities.
Nick: We're going to be totally wrong, anyway.
Felicity: We have to guess. It's necessary. If only to laugh at ourselves once we see what they really are.
Nick: Maybe they will actually turn into the X-Men.
Felicity: Ha! Curtis will turn into Beast.
Nick: Alisha will be Polaris. Kelly will be Jean Grey. Simon is Beast. Curtis will be Angel. New guy will be Cyclops.
Felicity: I could see weather manipulation though. I don't know. Do you think Kelly will stick with mind powers or go for something completely different?
Nick: Well, telekinesis is out if Elliot's powers are all gone. And pyrokinesis is out because of that one girl. So you might be right.
Felicity: Assuming there's only one person with telekinesis. It's hard to say. I don't think it mentions if everyone has to get different powers from the storm.
Nick: That's a good point. There could be multiples out there. I wonder if we'll learn more about the storm itself this season?
Felicity: I doubt it since they hardly ever seem to mention it, but it would be nice to get some solid answers.
Nick: Answers are not a top priority for Misfits it seems. Should we rank these?
Felicity: "Christmas Special" =
"Vegas, Baby" =
Nick: I'm giving "Christmas Special" too, but "Vegas" is getting .

Bigfoot approved.
Remember that blurry, shadowy figure you saw ripping through the woods last winter? That was the fabled Stash-quatch, and he was riding the Lib Tech Skunk Ape C2 BTX Wide Snowboard. Our furry friend usually keeps a low profile, but he came out of hiding long enough to help Lib Tech develop the ultimate all-mountain freestyle board for lumberjack-sized shredders. The C2 hybrid camber profile, snappy-yet-stompable flex, and a sustainably-farmed Columbian Gold core all keep Mr. Squatch happy while he shreds through the enchanted forest.
C2 BTX Power Banana technology features
rocker between the bindings for a floaty and forgiving ride in powder,
with camber zones extending from the bindings to the tip and tail to
give it a more aggressive feel that provides edge hold on hard pack and
pop off of jumps. A directional twin shape and set-back stance gives you
more power and control when you're shredding the deep stuff, but still
allows you to ride away switch so you can stomp those big back 180s into
fluffy landings. Magne-Traction edges are serrated to slice through ice
it's fresh corduroy, so you can carve down bulletproof slopes with ease
while everyone else is sliding out on their asses.
If you happen to actually run into the Stash-quatch this season, there's no reason to worry because he knows that this board was made right here in America using environmentally-friendly methods. Tough soy-based elastomer sidewalls replace toxic ABS, and the lightweight and strong Columbian Gold wood core comes from fast-growing, sustainably harvested trees so you're not contributing to the destruction of the rainforests. Low-VOC resin holds it all together, and the sublimated graphics on the PBT topsheet don't need protection from toxic clearcoat lacquer.

Very agile board for it's size
Member since
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I bought the 165 and absolutely love it. I use it for bump and east coast tight tree runs. As a very nice medium flex that absorbs and follows uneven, bumpy terrain very well.
The magnetraction is a love/hate thing. Great edge hold, you can really feel the difference when ride patches of ice. Why the Hate ? well if you just want to slide sideway off a feature and that feature is made of soft snow it will BITE really hard and stop you (talking very slow speed manoeuvring/alignment). Think slamming the brake with your car. Takes a bit to get used to.
Surprisingly the board profile carves C shape turns very well. Didn't think that could be done on non cambered board.
Over all I would buy this board again... even at full price !

Just read all the comments and they are not lying. This board has helped me progress 10 fold. I'm going through everything now and even getting the courage to try "some" park. Now this board is not exactly a park board, but the confidence in my boarding level has come to an all time high(age 30). Not to mention my style, no more wavy arms, or one arm back to keep balance. I feel like a bad ass now.
Quick, agile, "decent" pop for a big board, and fantastic edges with the magnatraction. As said in my previous review, I don't even think about hitting a patch of ice anymore. With these edges I honestly don't have to. Or going from one grade of snow to the next. This board transitions nicely and actually lets you use all the snow and mountain.
Haven't had a single issue with the Union Atlas Bindings either. Actually love them to death as well. Just a great, great, all around set-up for someone looking to take that next step. Us bigger guys sometimes don't get all the love. For the love of God, I sure can't find a pair of jeans in my size, but this board is made for us. All around just very solid and very fun.
Once again, if you have any questions don't hesitate to call me @ ext 4039. I'd be happy to answer any questions you have to the best of my knowledge.

Mark, what model and size boots do you wear?
Marc Ward
Member since
I wear size 12's in the Burton Moto's. I like the softness of the Moto's @ a 3 and like the dexterity they bring. It wouldn't hurt to go with a little bit stiffer boot as well. I am planning on getting something slightly stiffer next year. Something like the Nike LunarENDOR.
12's leave me with a little extra room on the edges, so if your feet are bigger I think it would work. You would just want to make sure your bindings will have that extra room as well. My union atlas's have an adjustable toe as well to extend slightly, but at size 12 I don't need it. If your feet are smaller than most definitely they will fit.
I changed the picture above to show you what a size 12 looks like. Sorry it's not a better picture but hopefully it gives some sort of idea as to how much room I have.
Member since
Thanks Mark, I wear a size 14. Sure I could get it to work as I ride a slightly thinner board right now, but it gets hairy in the soft stuff...
You should try on some Imperials, I wasn't even looking to upgrade my Motos, but I just happened to come across some in a 14 on a huge discount. The things are amazingly "contoured" compared to the bucket like nature of my Motos. And all the details are upgraded: the liner lace is harnessed to the shell, and the pull handles are hard plastic, etc.. They felt really stiff out of the box, but softened up pretty good after 2 days...
A great ride in all kinds of conditions.

Floats over both powder and cruft, cuts through hard groom and ice. Great board for bigger guys.
what is the waist width on the 157 ape?...

what is the waist width on the 157 ape?
are all models 268mm, that seems off.

Yes the waist width is 268mm on all the skunk apes.

Ended up getting this exact setup in a 165, originally was getting the Union Factory bindings but decided the Atlas were a better match. Love it.

Just a pic of the board with freshy new bindings. Looks DOOOOPE! Btw, I did a lot of research before selecting these bindings. I would highly recommend these as well.

Initial thoughts.
Marc Ward
Member since
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
**Just picked this up from the warehouse. Not yet ridden.**
Graphics are SICK!!! Very detailed and the more I look the more cool stuff I find. Can't wait to get this out on the snow.
Second thoughts are the board is pretty heavy in which I should've expected. I got the 172 because I'm 6.6' and the length is perfect but to get that length obviously there will be more weight.
From the eye the rocker under feet, and camber outside the feet look perfect. I've seen boards where it looks completely over used, the board kind of looking like it's been chopped and screwed with too much but looking at this makes sense. Not overly done in the least.
Magnatraction looks dope and excited to see how it handles. I'm expecting it will handle very well, even with the weight.
All around I'm very pleased with this board just by the eye and feel test. It's more than I expected (which was actually a lot after MUCH research) and I think it will fit me quite well being a tall guy. May not be the best for pulling tricks but that's fine with me. I'm hoping the camber/rocker/camber will counter that a bit.
I will post a better review once I get it out on the mountains. If anybody has any questions on this board hit me up on the number on top of this page and my ext is 4039. I'll be more than happy to talk to you about this board and answer any questions.

Any update on how it's going?

Yes, but the only problem is I rode it on my crappy Liquid bindings.
The board handles fantastic! If you need an edge, it's there with the magnatraction. I used to be weary of icy spots, but this board will push right through it. Haven't had one bit of chatter anywhere. I can now use the full mountain and feel completely comfortable.
"Floats" on powder. Really really cool, but that's in comparison to my old Burton Custom. Also on those days with the mixture of crust and powder this board destroys it. Slices right through it, and easy to maintain solid balance.
Can't tell you much on the rocker/camber quite yet. The bindings I was using really didn't allow me to feel it that much. I will say, I got me the Union Altas binding for Christmas and tried them on and WOW! The board suddenly has flex and I can feel the rocker and camber. Excited to see the complete potential of the board.
Board is quick. My skier buddies used to leave me in the dust but now I'm right there with them. Goes pretty well on the catwalks but I have lost some speed due to the magnatraction at times. It seems to catch a little too much on the flats.
Overall I would highly recommend this board. Handling, balance, pop, speed, and ability to go anywhere on the mountain have me loving everything about the board. And that was with horrible bindings on it, not even getting the full effect. I'll post a pic of what it looks like here shortly.

I was in the market for a new board last year. Took a weekend vacation with the wife to a hill about 2 hrs away. We hit a local snowboard shop (shop local when I can!). They love their Libtech and Neverwinter gear. I got to spend a day on the mountain with a 2012 model of the Skunk Ape. LOVED it. Here in the northeast we dont get a TON of powder and there are a LOT of firm conditions. I was AMAZED at how this board bit into the hill and allowed me to carve with no issues. I never felt like I was going to lose it at any time. I go back to the shop the next day and immediately pick up the 2013 model. Walked out the door a happy man.

Carmelo Anthony has jumped over Pau Gasol in NBA All-Star voting, the league announced in its Thursday release of the second set of balloting. The Lakers' Gasol had led Nuggets star Anthony by 21,000 votes two weeks ago. But in the latest results, 'Melo has opened up a 5,000-vote over Pau for the second West starting forward spot. Kevin Durant of the Thunder leads Anthony by 133,000 votes for the first Western forward slot.
Voting ends Jan. 23. The starting line-ups will be announced on TNT on Jan. 27.
The other hotly contested battle -- between the Celtics' Rajon Rondo and the Bulls' Derrick Rose -- has tightened. Rondo was ahead by 73,000 votes in the first round of results, but Rose has pulled to within 56,000. That seems like a mammoth gap, but it can be made up, especially if Rondo continues to sit due to injury. The Heat's Dwyane Wade leads both with 938,402 votes.
If voting ended today, these would be the All-Star starting line-ups:
- G: Dwyane Wade (938,402)
- G; Rajon Rondo (777,310)
- F: LeBron James (969,459)
- F: Kevin Garnett (712,555)
- C: Dwight Howard (988,572)
- G: Kobe Bryant (1,153,694)
- G: Chris Paul (585,690)
- F; Kevin Durant (735,521)
- F: Carmelo Anthony (602,516)
- C: Yao Ming (637,527)
Yao presents a problem, as he won't play again this season. Andrew Bynum of the Lakers trails Yao by about 260,000 votes. If Yao wins the voting, the league will be in a tough position deciding how to fill his starting spot. The most sensible resolution would be to allow Gasol to start at center (where he played for the first quarter of the season for L.A.) and fill the center spots on the roster with tall forwards like Tim Duncan and Dirk Nowitzki.

A word from Tribeca Grill
Located in the heart of downtown Manhattan, Tribeca Grill is a true New York City landmark. Co-owned by renowned restaurateur Drew Nieporent and legendary actor Robert De Niro, the Grill continues to receive many prestigious awards including, the coveted Grand Award from Wine Spectator Magazine
every year since 2002. As a must-visit wine destination, the Grill features an extensive list featuring the world's largest selection of Châteauneuf du Pape (over 250) as well as many rare California Cabernet verticals. The 2,000 selection, 20,000 bottle list is one of only seven restaurants in New York to receive the Grand Award. Executive Chef Kamal Rose's market-driven menu features robust dishes such as Grilled Atlantic Salmon with Rataouille and Seared Sea Scallops with Butternut Squash, Chanterelles & Smoked Bacon Risotto.

Diner Reviews
We have really enjoyed our
experience at Tribeca grill. We chose the duck and the filet of beef + chocolate cake and banana tart. Amazing. We will come back for sure."
Dined on 8/25/2014
This place has declined
substantially from prior visits. The bread was stale (it was replaced with fresh bread when we complained), and the crab cakes were clearly warmed-up leftovers. The fact that we dined on a Sunday evening is no excuse. Cutting costs seems to have prevailed over quality food."
Dined on 8/24/2014
My friends were flying in from
London and San Francisco so we wanted to feel very much together. The lovely round table, though a little large, meant we could all make eye-contact and conversation. The service was super - our waitress patiently allowing for our excited catching-up and indecision! I loved that even the greeter wished me a Happy Birthday as I left - how did she know?! It felt like a special occasion, without being stuffy. Shame Mr. De Niro didn't drop by. Guess my friends couldn't quite swing that!"
Dined on 8/23/2014
Went there for lunch, took an hour
and 45 minutes for us to get through a 3 course meal. Two of us ordered the same entree, one medium and one well done, and the waiter didn't know which was which. It was a a hot day and the air conditioning was not on. A terrible dining experience."
Dined on 8/21/2014
We couldn't have asked for a more
perfect evening! The sea scallops not only looked delightful; they were unbelievably delicious. The service was warm and friendly with adequate time to relax and enjoy the food. The wine selection was incredible and the wine we selected was a perfect choice. Most of all, I loved the "feel" of the restaurant; tastefully decorated accenting the beautiful brick interior. A great way to end our NYC weekend experience!"
Dined on 8/17/2014
The look of Tribeca Grill is
great, the service was also very good. The food was fine, but I have to say it was nothing special. With all the hype about the food I was expecting something much more original and done to perfection. It was nice but not memorable."

Great place! Food deliciously
fantastic, service attentive, all is great here."

We stumbled on Tribeca Grill on
one of our previous visits and make it a point to eat there each time we are in New York City. We found that it was great for lunch as well as dinner. Service and food is excellent. We are looking forward to our next visit."

Exzellent service from Kyle. Very

TriBeCa Grill was the perfect spot
for our wedding celebration! We had six friends at our table, and though a bit noisy, we were able to all talk easily. We may have contributed to the noise level ourselves! The service was outstanding! Very attentive but never intrusive. Michael was excellent! All of us ordered a different dish, and we all enjoyed everything we ate. No pretentiousness here; only great food, wine and service. I would definitely come back on my next trip to NYC, and recommend TriBeCa Grill to friends!"

Very nice restaurant with a quick
and nice service and good food. We spent a very nice evening."
Dined on 8/14/2014
While it is a convenient
neighborhood spot with an excellent wine list, the service has slipped and the food become a bit dull. Even the wonderful white wine was not up to par as it was served too warm. They need to crack the whip with the wait staff and introduce a new menu."
Dined on 8/14/2014
We came here for restaurant week
lunch and had a great experience. We had the roasted beer salad which was delicious. The poached salmon was a very hearty portion (a rarity for Restaurant Week) and was beautifully served with it's accompanying sauce. The chocolate cake we had for dessert was amazingly decadent. The servers were very sweet though it took us a while to get our check. Regardless, I'd come back here again and I see why it's an institution in Tribeca."

Have dined at Tribeca Grill in NY
many times and never disappointed. A must if you are visiting the Big Apple !!!"
Dined on 8/12/2014
The best thing about this place is
the service. everyone is attentive. For the amount of $$$ I expected the food to tast better. I had the mahi mahi with zuchinin salad that didn't have much flavor to it. The portion was fine but it need more seasoning. My boyfriend had the St. Louis style ribs with potatoe salad. The ribs had a nice sauce but the meet wasn't very tender. I enjoyed my Rose wine. That was the highlight."
Dined on 8/12/2014
I visited the Tribecca Grill
during restaurant week. I was very pleased with the choices given for lunch. I had a delicious beet salad which consisted of greens and red and orange beets in a light tasteful dressing. For entree a well seasoned half chicken and desert peach pastry with sorbet and cream. This was my first time there and would go back even when it's not restaurant week. A very pleasant experience with friends. The location is very close to the 911 Museum and subway and Path trains."
Dined on 8/12/2014
Service in this restaurant was
great. We stuck to the restaurant week menu which was not that great, but because the service was so wonderful I will try it again."
Dined on 8/11/2014
The restaurant is a nice place and
has a great wine list but the food is too salt or too spicy."
Dined on 8/10/2014
We went to TriBeCa Grill for my
birthday while we were in NYC. It was in a neighborhood dwelling which was nice, as we were staying in midtown Manhattan. We were hoping for a nice romantic dinner. The hostess greeted us and was very friendly. She seated us in a booth type table. There was a large table next to us and the people were talking so loudly that we couldn't help but over hear most of their conversation. Which after awhile was becoming annoying. It took awhile for a server to acknowledge us. I was rather disappointed in the service I thought since it was a fine dining it would have been better. Was disappointed in the menu. We chose the filet with spinach and mashed potatoes. The steak was very good and cooked perfect. Overall a C."

Service left much to be desired.

Really enjoyed my brunch here. The
food was outstanding. The staff was all around phenomenal. Beautiful ambience. Classic TriBeCa."
Dined on 8/10/2014
We had never been here before but
found the restaurant and the area very inviting and fun. The food was excellent, the service also very good. They were attentive, professional and also wiling to allow us plenty of time to linger. We were there with family who we hadn't seen in a long time and spent a long time catching up. We weren't rushed in any way which is incredibly refreshing."
Dined on 8/9/2014
We went not knowing what to
expect, only that we didn't believe Robert Deniro would associate himself with a crappy place. Well, even having no expectations, we were very impressed. Food was wonderful, and the deserts were well thought out. We had a reservation for 7:15, but we managed to get there quite early, and they let found a table for us anyway. I'd strongly recommend giving this place a try."
Dined on 8/9/2014
Friendly service and fantastic
food. We had a 2 year old and they accommodated perfectly. Wife and I were both able to finish our meals as the servers even help entertain our son a little. :)"

Food was well presented, tasty,
overall first rate. Only slip up was decaf coffee was not hot."

Made a 530 reservation. Arrived
on time. Ordered the food promptly. We were given our single dinner rolls and once completed, the plates were removed. We ordered a salad, which was simple. We waited and waited. 45 minutes later other patrons were being served that came in after us (we ordered scallops and a filet mignon). I promptly ordered my check and we left the premises and had a very enjoyable evening elsewhere."
Dined on 8/8/2014
Booked this for a friend's
birthday, and it was great. The service was great, they were attentive without making us feel rushed, and the food was tasty. We all ordered off of the restaurant week menu, and they didn't skimp us on portion sizes, experience, service, etc....this has been an issue at some other not-to-be-named restaurants I've been to during restaurant week. I would absolutely come back to Tribeca Grill after the lovely meal we had there."

Still wonderful after all these
years. Like fine wine this place gets better with age."

I am a huge Bobby fan as well as a
big food conisure. This place was greater than Imcould have imagined. The menu is eclectic as the Bear In Bearsville, my all time favorite. You see so many celebrity spots living off a name, not here, the food is the star."

Had a wonderful lunch during
Restaurant Week. The food was amazing and a reasonable wine list. Wonderful service. We will return!"

My second time here. Took a while
before server approached table after being seated, but once server came, he was attentive. Food was excellent, portions plenty. Rib dish was a plate mountain of tender, fall-off-the-bone meat. Chocolate cake was dense, rich, delicious. Wine list from Dave's pick is trustworthy. Very enjoyable dinner. Look forward to returning to restaurant."
Dined on 8/3/2014
I took my parents to Tribeca Grill
for a Sunday brunch (as a part of Restaurant Week). They are very picky with their food, but could find no complaints about the food given. The only minor issue was that we were sitting for a while without a menu, and a few waiters saw this, but did nothing about it. It wasn't much of a big deal, though. The grilled chicken was exceptional, as well as the ribs!"
Dined on 8/3/2014
First visit to TriBeCa Grill.
Service was excellent, but food was nothing special. Although it was Restaurant Week, we ordered from the regular brunch menu. Ordered the cinnamon pecan roll, not worth it; seemed stale. I had the goat cheese omelet - not much egg or potato for the money. My wife had the chopped chicken salad and enjoyed it. They also seemed to have cancelled my reservation, even though I had confirmed the day before; a 2nd hostess was able to find it."
Dined on 8/3/2014
I had the brunch menu. Food was
not that bad. But I enjoyed the desert rather than the main menu. The strawberry cheese cake was one of the best cheese cake I had so far. Although the server made a mistake to give me the wrong dish, he apologized politely.. I pretty enjoyed in Tribeca Grill."
Dined on 8/3/2014
Never have a bad meal here! But it
is very noisy once the restaurant fills up"
Dined on 8/2/2014
Maybe if you don't order off their
restaurant week menu the food actually tastes like it's worth $40 an entree. My chair cushion had crumbs all over it. Server wasn't very personable or knowledgeable. All of these points are not such a big deal if you're grabbing a quick diner bite. However, when you're spending $150 for a dinner for two at a trendy celebrity owned restaurant, you expect your experience exceed casual dining."

Myself and my boyfriend were
visiting New York, which happened to coincide during New York Restaurant Week. I booked the table the week before on Open Table. We were greeted at the door with smiles and really attentive servers. The service was superb, attentive without being over bearing, informative without being condescending, all you want from a waiter. As it was Restaurant Week, we were able to sample three courses at an amazing price. I chose the baby beet, pear and blue cheese salad to start, the baked mahi mahi for my main and the peach tart and passion fruit sorbet for dessert. The food was delicious, the wine was an Italian really reasonably priced, overall a really memorable, enjoyable night!"
Dined on 8/1/2014
The food and atmosphere were

Giorgia Ankle Booties 30 30
Nice booties These are cute and fit nicely. I do agree that it's important to go up a half size. July 27, 2014
Fun Boots These boots run narrow which is great for me - usually when i get my size 9 for length they are too wide. These were just right. Dresses up a pair of jeans, or will be cute with a dress too. Nice quality - great deal at sale price. March 25, 2014
Wow Are These Uncomfortable! Sending back -Feels way to snug in the toe box. Nice boot though-just painful! February 27, 2014
Love these ankle boots! Beautiful suede - I got them in black. Very stylish and comfortable! I was hesitant about the comfort at first due to some reviews. Then they were on sale, so I went for it. And am glad I did. I'm on my feet all day, (math teacher), but these felt fine - even on first time wearing them. Heel is higher than I'm used to, but work well and look fab. February 13, 2014
very soft inside, I am size 5.5 -6 - it fits me perfectly, very comfortable February 10, 2014
These shoes look really nice, but the toe is fairly narrow and crowds my toes a bit. I like them, but they were probably not worth what I paid for them. February 8, 2014

The Central Park Five
This documentary takes the wrongful conviction and imprisonment of five black and Hispanic teenage boys for the rape of a white, female jogger -- and makes its a straightforward case. It is thoughtful, educational and understated -- tonally, the trademark work of veteran documentarian Ken Burns, who directs, writes and produces with daughter Sarah Burns, who wrote a book about the crime, and her husband, David McMahon. It depicts the hysteria of a racially and socioeconomically divided New York City in April 1989. The late-night attack on jogger Trisha Meili -- a 28-year-old Wall Street investment banker -- became a symbol of everything that seemed wrong with society. The five young men from Harlem -- Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Raymond Santana, Korey Wise (previously spelled Kharey Wise), and Yusef Salaam -- became easy scapegoats. The Central Park Five aims to clear their names publicly, in a way that did not when a judge vacated the convictions in 2002. Not rated but contains language and graphic, violent details.
Killing Them Softly
Writer-director Andrew Dominik has taken the 1974 crime novel Cogan's Trade by George V. Higgins and set it in the days before the 2008 presidential election. As if we couldn't decipher for ourselves that organized crime functions as its own form of capitalism, Killing Them Softly turns on the mini-implosion that occurs when a couple of idiots rob a mob-protected card game. Scoot McNairy plays the jittery ex-con Frankie; his inept partner is a heroin addict played by Ben Mendelsohn. The corporate types at the top of the syndicate want to restore order, so they ask Jackie Cogan, an enforcer played by Brad Pitt (star of Dominik's haunting, poetic The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford), to investigate the heist and punish the perpetrators. Pitt effortlessly manages to be both a serious actor and a superstar. The film's best scenes are the ones he shares with James Gandolfini as a brazen but insecure hit man. R for violence, sexual references, pervasive language and some drug use.

(WAOW) - The Northwoods League All-Star game will be held at Witter Park in Wisconsin Rapids Monday.
Sunday, the Rafters held events to get their fans into the all-star spirit. Players were there to sign autographs and take pictures with fans and there was plenty for adults to do, as well as for the kids.
Despite temperatures hitting triple digits, people seemed to have fun and stuck around long enough to see some balls being mashed in the home run derby
The Rafters' Kyle Peterson took part in the derby in his home ballpark.
He put on quite a display early on, hitting 16 home runs in the first round, the most of any player, and the Witter Field crowd lets him know they appreciate the show.
Mankato's Shaun Cooper kept the pace, however in the head to head final round, Cooper hit 12 dingers. That was quite a mountain to climb for Peterson as he fell just short, hitting a final round 10 home runs.

The South Carolina Highway Patrol is investigating an accident that killed a motorcyclist Thursday evening in Aiken County.
Around 9 p.m., investigators say 24-year-old Rachel Baker swerved to avoid hitting a dog on Jefferson Davis Highway in front of Aiken Technical College and lost control of her 2007 Kawasaki motorcycle.
Baker was ejected from the bike, and was hit by two other vehicles.
Troopers say Baker was wearing a helmet. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
No other people were injured in the crash.
The Highway Patrol is still investigating the accident.

It's been too long since we simply sat up and pointed out a few of the many new releases worth a set of ears. Luckily, the staff on weekends at All Things Considered thought the same. They invited me to sit down with host Jacki Lyden and play a few cuts for them.
Here's music from an elder statesman of piano, a trumpeter who understands creole music personally, a drummer who writes tunes with a payoff, and a singer in her early 20s with maturity and kick.

PBer gets charge out of electric car stationJune 14th, 2011 by David Rogers
Palm Beacher Andrew Roddy, owner of an electric-powered vehicle, was among those "plugged in" to a ribbon-cutting ceremony earlier this month in downtown West Palm Beach.
The event marked the installation of seven 240-volt charging stations in West Palm's Clematis Street parking garage. Roddy provided this picture of his vehicle — a 2006 Toyota Scion xB converted to an electric vehicle in 2007 — being charged the event.
Five of the stations are designated for city use, as West Palm has ordered five all-electric Nissan LEAF vehicles, that are set to be delivered in December. Two of the spaces are open to the public and can be used free-of-charge. The stations were paid for by a federal Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant.
The city will monitor the stations and report to the government the estimated fuel savings and reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, according to Josh Nichols, the city's sustainability coordinator.
At some point, the city will likely charge users a fee for using the charging station. The pilot program will be used to determine whether West Palm Beach will install similar stations elsewhere. Roddy said his vehicle has a range of 120 miles and it costs him about $3 to give it a full charge.

Boeing shares tank following another Dreamliner mishap
Japanese carriers, big Boeing customers, ground their 787 fleets.
A 787 operated by All Nippon Airways was forced to make an emergency landing in Japan after a smoke alarm went off apparently because of a fire in a battery, according to media reports. Nippon Airways and Japan Airlines, Japan's largest airlines, have grounded their Dreamliner fleets as a result. Together, the two airlines have purchased 24 of the 50 Dreamliners Boeing has made since it began delivering the aircraft in November 2011.
Shares of the aerospace company fell $2.32, or 3%, to $74.62. The shares are little changed over the past year.
The problems in Japan come on the heels of the U.S. government's review of the manufacturing and design of the Dreamliner. According to The Wall Street Journal, the Chicago-based company was not too keen on the review, "arguing it was unwarranted and threatened to undermine investor, customer and passenger confidence in the plane" The FAA didn't order the aircraft to be grounded while the review was done. Indeed, United Airlines, which operates six Dreamliners, continues to have confidence in the aircraft, the paper says.
The Chicago-based company delayed releasing the state-of-the-art aircraft for nearly four years as the firm was forced to address unexpected defects. Boeing has said the 787 can fly passengers farther at a lower cost because it is far more fuel-efficient than more conventional aircraft. Some carriers may be holding off buying the aircraft until they can be assured that the technical glitches are going to come to an end. The importance of the Dreamliner to Boeing cannot be underestimated.
"I suspect many carriers are getting a bit nervous, particularly if they're expecting an early production aircraft," writes Richard Aboulafia, of the Teal Group, an aviation consultancy, in an email to MSN. "Boeing built scores of 787s before the plane was put into service, which means many planes were built in different ways and heavily modified. It also means that many production aircraft didn't benefit from experience learned as the plane entered revenue service. All of this is a recipe for trouble."

Paterno firing was right thing, now let's get back to real issue
Effective immediately Joe Paterno is out as football coach at Penn St.
This is not about football.
This is not about anything being good. If anything, it's bad. Terribly bad.
This is not a celebration.
This is sad.
This is the Penn St. Board of Trustees doing the right thing. I am expecting and hoping more dismissals will follow.
Did others do wrong along the way and should they be held for their lack of actions? Absolutely.
This is about young boys being sexually victimized by an adult. An adult that was in a powerful position.
Jerry Sandusky. A name I think some are looking past in getting all caught up in the Joe Paterno fracas.
Now that Paterno is officially out of his position I hope the story and attention turns to where it belongs.
Sandusky's disgusting criminal acts are what started and have led to this.
Do these victims care if Paterno is on the sidelines Saturday? What do they think as they see students parading around Happy Valley based on these announcements? The last thing I want to do is try to put myself in their shoes.
The focus needs to be on stopping anyone who was -- and is -- involved in these crimes. Help these victims. Raise awareness. Make it known this behavior is unacceptable and the guilty will be held accountable to the highest extent of the law.
Joe Paterno is out of his leadership role. It was the right thing to do. As far this story is concerned, let's move past this quickly.
Let's get back to the real issue at hand.
TY's Outtakes
What I learned this week�
I now know what it's like to be in the same room as a 20 foot, 200 pound python. I guess the learning was that not all pythons are ready to bite your head off on a moments notice. I still didn't get within 15 feet as others were all over it.
Tweet of the week�
@PaulCalvisi: Paulie Breaking News: "AP source: Penn State football coach Joe Paterno has decided to retire at end of the season."
With all that was going on I really didn't expect Paterno to have any timetable about himself stepping away from the program. I really thought he was going to have to be forced out the entire time no matter what. We now know he tried to hold on for the next two months but that wasn't acceptable.
Suggestion of the week�
I Told My Kids I Ate All Their Halloween Candy
This is hilarious.

MONTGOMERY VILLAGE, Md. (AP) - An uncle of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects says he had a falling-out with one of his nephews because of the man's increased commitment to Islam.
Ruslan Tsarni says he grew concerned about Tamerlan Tsarnaev when he told him in a 2009 phone conversation that he had chosen "God's business'' over work or school. Tsarni said he then contacted a family friend who told him Tsarnaev had been influenced by a recent convert to Islam.
Tsarni says the two hadn't spoken since that call. The 26-year-old Tsarnaev was killed in a shootout with police Friday. His younger brother, 19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, was captured that evening.
Tsarni says he was relieved his younger nephew was captured alive so he could seek forgiveness from the bombing victims.

A link that directs someone to your website is called a URL. A URL is also known as a Uniform Resource Locator. It allows internet users to locate your site. Therefore, everyone who has a website or online page has an existing URL. Most of the time, we encounter long URL's which are very hard to remember. However, it is possible to reduce these outstretched links into much shorter ones. This is with the help of a URL shortening service.
A URL shortening service does exactly what it says it does. It reproduces a long URL into a shorter version. Some benefits that this service provides are its distinctiveness and its ability to be read out loud. If your business URL is quite long, it would be hard for potential customers to remember your URL. They might try to look you up in a search engine and come up with a competitor instead. That would have been an avoidable shame. One more benefit of shorter URL's is its capacity to be posted elsewhere. Most sites have a limit on posted characters which is usually set at 140 characters. If you have an extraordinarily long URL, you will not be able to share your site with others on a different site. Again, that would have been an avoidable shame.
Creating a shorter URL will need to have its Hyper Text Transfer Protocol or HTTP redirected to a shorter domain containing the longer URL linked to the site. Various techniques are used to redirect your HTTP. One of these techniques is known as base 62 which include 10 digits, upper case letters and lower case letters. Many URL shortening services provide a variety of features as well. One of these possible features could be to follow the number of clicks that your URL has had in a specific duration of time.
As most things in this world URL shortening also has set backs. A short URL can be a question of reliability. You just can't garner where that shortened URL is going to lead you. If you are using a shortened URL for Twitter, then that is alright. However, in the big online world, not a lot of people are going to trust a shortened URL because of their experiences with such URL's leading them to pornographic sites. Another negative factor is that not all sites allow access to shortened URL sites. So, you have to take that into consideration as well before getting in touch with a URL shortening service provider.
Having a shortened URL provides a certain number of advantages. If you deem it right to have a shortened URL, then you can go ahead and search for a reliable URL shortening service provider. Just make sure that when you click that shortened URL, there will be no wrong turns and avoidable shames.
