JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Lighting seemed to be the only thing that could slow down the Dolphins on Saturday as Jacksonville University put on a show in its first home game
of the season, defeating Morehead State, 69-19. The Dolphins improved to 1-2 on the season behind 719 yards of total
offense and a D.B. Milne Field record for points scored.
The game was called with 1:42 left in the fourth quarter due to lighting in the area.
Sophomore running back Orlando Thomas (Ocoee, Fla.) broke an 84-yard TD run in the second quarter and powered the attack with a career best 176 yards and two touchdowns on 10 carries. Sophomore receiver D'Andre Randle (Miami, Fla.) had a career day as weel catching eight passes for 134 yards and a touchdown.
After deferring on the coin toss, Morehead State opened the game with a bit of trickery. The team nearly recovered its onside kick but ended up giving the Dolphins solid field position on their own 35. Quarterback Kade Bell (Fleming Island, Fla.) needed just three plays to put the Dolphins on the board and gave JU a 7-0 lead on 25-yard pass to wide receiver Dorian Guy (Jacksonville, Fla.).
JU's defense forced a three-and-out on the Eagles opening drive, leading to a punt. Jacksonville was able to move the chains a bit on its second drive, and the final result was a field goal to make it 10-0.
Although Morehead State answered with a field goal of their own, the Eagles couldn't contain JU's running game and allowed back-to-back rushing touchdowns late in the second quarter. With 5:10 left on the clock, Thomas found a gap in the defense and ran up the right sideline for the 84-yard score and his first career touchdown. On the next play, Morehead State turned the ball over on a forced fumble and JU made them pay with a 27-yard rush from freshman Ulysses Bryant (Jacksonville, Fla.).
The Dolphins entered halftime up 31-16, and continued to turn on the pressure in the second half. Senior Adrian Riley (Ocoee, Fla.) was an offensive machine for JU in the third quarter. After the Dolphin defense forced a punt on the opening possession of the third quarter, the wide receiver flashed his speed when he scored a 75-yard punt return touchdown. He later added a nine-yard pass from Bell, one of three from the sophomore QB on the day who finished 18-34 for 276 yards. With the Eagles only able to score one more field goal, JU cruised to an easy 69-19 victory. Sophomore QB Steven Hughes (Melbourne, Fla.) came on in relief in the fourth quarter to throw for 78 yards and a TD on 8-10 passing.

---- — MALONE — Grieving is a process, and often difficult.
Hospice of the North Country Butterfly Release events give those who have lost loved ones a way to remember them, honor them and heal.
The next release is set for 10 a.m. Saturday, June 8, at Malone Recreational Park.
"It brings people together," said Amanda Bow, who is Hospice director of development and communications. "There's a lot of symbolism with butterflies, and one of the things that we try to promote is quality of life and a quality life until the end.
"The butterfly symbolizes life. So, it's a great way to remember someone and honor a person that you loved."
In 2006, Hospice began an annual Butterfly Release in Plattsburgh. In 2009, a Malone version was added, as many from that area had been traveling to the one in Clinton County.
"In Malone, it keeps growing every year," Bow said. "This year, I've ordered 192 (butterflies), and I have a feeling that I'm going to have to get over 200."
In 2012, 180 butterflies were released in Malone.
The butterflies are shipped from Swallowtail Farms in El Dorado Hills, Calif. For travel, Bow said, they are put on ice, which keeps them in a hibernating state.
"They come in little cardboard boxes," she said. "It's kind of neat to see them — they're like little triangles.
"We take them, and we warm them up. Then they start to wake up, and they're ready to be released," she said.
Although the releasing of the butterflies is a nice experience in itself, the real reason for the event is for people to reunite and comfort one another in a time of remembrance.
Many families whose loved ones received hospice care participate; so do hospice workers and volunteers.
"Most of our clinical staff that go into the homes come to the event," Bow said. "It's just a really good thing."
Bow encourages all people who are grieving to come and join in the celebration of the lives of lost loved ones.
"This isn't just for Hospice patients or families; it's for the community," she said. "So we hope to have a lot of community attendants, as well."
Butterflies are $20 each.

DALLAS — Former Dallas Mayor Tom Leppert — who ran in the Republican primary against David Dewhurst and Ted Cruz and got 13 percent of the vote — wasted no time endorsing Dewhurst after Tuesday night's Belo Debate.
During the campaign, Leppert constantly referred to Dewhurst as a "career politician," and just before the primary, Dewhurst aired a harsh attack ad that claimed Leppert ran Dallas like a "Democrat."
But all was forgiven Tuesday (as it often is in politics) when Leppert swung his support behind Dewhurst's base. Leppert cited Dewhurst's long government record and experience in business in making his decision.
"In Washington, we need people who actually understand how an economy works... who actually understand how you create jobs," Leppert said. "There are a lot of issues out there, but the reality is, if we don't address the economy and we're in dire straits, then a lot of these issues aren't going to be near as important as each one of us are making them to be. I believe what it really takes people who really bring an experience base."
Leppert said he met with both Dewhurst and Cruz separately after the primary before deciding to back Dewhurst.
Sources had told News 8 that Leppert was hurt and angry at Dewhurst for the attack ad, and that Dewhurst — needing Leppert's support — reached out immediately to try to make amends.
In a rare example of penitence in politics, Dewhurst now admits that he apologized to Leppert.
Reacting to the endorsement, a Cruz spokesman said, "Congratulations, Mr. Dewhurst."
The Republican runoff election will take place on July 31.

Police responding to a report of a gunman in a Warner Center office Monday afternoon, evacuated the building and searched the floors without finding anyone suspicious, authorities said.
A call came in about 3:30 p.m. reporting an armed man, possibly on the 10th floor of the Universal Music Building, which is in the Farmers Insurance Plaza in the 6300 block of Owensmouth Avenue, Los Angeles police said.
The call stemmed from a letter received by someone in the building that referenced a threat from a gunman, officers said.
Los Angeles police spokesman Richard French said officers locked down exits and shut down the elevators in the building while they searched.
Police did not find a suspect and they were interviewing the people who reported the incident, Lt. Andy Neiman said.

A couple weeks ago we got a last minute note about the annual trail riders coming through town. JR and I went running out the door to find their wagons, trotting down the street from Moody to HEB on Rio Grande. Assignments like this are why I love being a photojournalist in Texas. We get a mix of the old and the new, people embrace history and tradition as much as they do new technology. Sure these trail riders had canvas wagons, but they also had iphones.
There is something special about seeing cowboys reclining on the lawn of HEB, their horses tethered to a billboard as curious onlookers drive by in their hondas and toyotas.
The trail riders talked to me about why they rode on the trail each year. For some it was keeping tradition alive, for others it was the charity aspect or simply the steadfast surety of good companionship, open skies and quiet afternoons.

3.95/5 rDev -6.4%
The body was pale golden to amber colored with some copper tones. The head was about an inch thick and was fed by medium carbonation from beneath. This is my first barley wine, so I could be wrong, but I was anticipating a darker colored and thicker brew. The aroma was floral, perfumey hops with medicinal alcohol. The first sips also revealed an insane level of hops. This comes across as flirting pretty close to being a double/imperial IPA. The underlying malts are really sweet, with notes of toffee, pear, bubble gum, and banana being quite pronounced, along with a fair bit of grain.
Being very young, this brew had a bit of a harsh mouthfeel with flavors flying rapidly past each other and having not quite melded together. The tender age also made the alcohol too much up front with a warm burning sensation detracting from drinkability, and making this quite difficult to quaff. As I finish the 22 oz bomber, this beer is kicking my ass. I like my beers to have a more subtle punch than this. I will be cellaring my second bottle at least for an year, for it to come together better. I can see that the ingredients for an exceptional brew are all in here; they just need some more time.
For those of you stuck in 6% ABV Georgia (for now at least), Liquid Solutions ships here, and that's how I got this one.

22ozer bottle from Yankee Spirits, Sturbridge, MA.
Poured into an imperial pint glass, a bubbling frenzy that concluded with an inch tall slightly off-white colored head on top of a honey amber colored brew. Not much jumps out at me from the nose, nothing bad, but nothing terribly outstanding either. However, the taste is where it's at: All sorts of stuff going on! We've got the initial hop bite for such a young barleywine, then the malt kicks in and runs around on your tongue, and then the alcohol kick just moseys up on up and starts kicking butt everywhere. Interesting doesn't begin to describe what the Old Guardian got happening. Definitely a cellarable offering, maybe smooth out the alcohol profile just a bit.

Wow, while not a huge fan of barelywine, this is a nice standout. Yes, dfh, and, victory reviews are worth merit, these, are still something more.
It pours, a dark amber color, with a thick, rich head and a nice, solid, citrusy smell
Hmmmm, as for the taste, well, it has a definate malty profile, and an afterthough of hop. The hopos do show up in force, but, the malts are definately the centerpeice fo this show. Yes, there are hints of hops, spices, and a nice mix of esters, but, the malt is the centerpeice definately.
Stone, once, again, hasproven to em their diverse flavors and abilitis, they can go the distance with any brewer, well played boys, well played

This potent beer pours a deep golden almost orange like color. Head on my sample was thick and left nice lace. Smell of sweet malt, hops, and fruit. Powerful on the taste buds, with hops leading the way. very fruity but balanced my malt base. Thick motor oil like mouthfeel. Drinkability is tough to gauge for me, I liked the taste, in some ways it might be my favorite barleywine, however it's very potent. Excellent though overall, I might prefer the smoother milder Old Nick from Young's. As far as domestics, this is right there.

Reddish color with golden hues and a huge head. Smell is very aromatic with blends of fuits, spices, and delicious hops. The taste is an extreme bombardment of hops and very strong malts. Silky smooth body and fruity esters. Each sip gets better or maybe that's the alcohol getting to me...this is a great beer and it lived up to what I've read about it. Teh aftertaste is a great blend of hops and fruity esters. Stone has done it again!

Deep golden with an orange hue and a thick head of foam that slowly developed as I poured. This is one heavy looking brew. Aroma is exploding with hops and sweet malt. Tropical fruit and citrus come to mind also with a bit of doughiness in the background. Hops are really out front here. Body is ultra smooth and full with low carbonation. The flavor here is really fantastic and I wouldn't expect anything less from one of the best breweries anywhere.(God how do they continue to do it?) Lots of fruit in the flavor and bittering hops with a huge malt base that blends everything together. There's also something spicy in there that I can not define yet adds to the enjoyment. Overall one I could drink often as with anything by Stone. Nice going guys!

I was expecting this to be overwhelming, but it was actually quite drinkable. Nice, full body (as expected) with an excellent malt profile. I was pleasantly suprised not to experience an out-and-out hops assault. There were plenty of hops, for sure, but not overly so (as if ususally the case with the big micros). Not much head, but I wouldn't expect it here. This is one I would drink on occasion if I can get it. I've yet to have a Stone beer that isn't excellent.

One of my favorite beers that I look for each year, and one I get by the case. The beer as it renounces the 22 ounce bottle in favor of my beer glass is a tralucent deep copper color, the head is behemothic in size and spumous in texture, after it dissolves, the lace forms a thick blanket to cover the glass. The aroma of hops, fusel alcohol, fresh pineapple also sweet cotton candy like tones, a real treat for the schnozzle and the peepers, start is ambrosial, rich in malt, the top middling in its feel to the palate. Finish is controlled in its acidity, the hops unyielding in their spiciness with the aftertaste bone-dry, and long lasting, the 10.6% ABV produces a nice touch of alcohol bitterness and a definite belly warming sensation, a Hoot as it is every year, and it only gets better with age just like Old Gusler?

Served in the 22 oz. bomber, into a pint glass. The color was copper, with a nice foamy white head. The smell was a strong citrus hop over the thick, light malt base. The taste was an excellent citrus hop with the strong lighter malt backing. Mouthfeel was nice and syrupy thick. As for drinkability, could have these all day long.
A simply fantastic beer, which is business as usual at Stone Brewing. A great citrusy-hopped barleywine that's worth drinking over and over again, and now that it's just starting to hit Western PA, I'll hopefully I'll have it again.

Purchased a bomber at the North Coast Co-op in Arcata, California. Lucky to snag one before they were all gone.
Pours bright orange-edged amber with a buttery head that quickly dissipates and leaves a few thin blankets of lace on the glass.
The nose makes itself evident immediately upon evacuation from the bottle. Sharply sweet malts and a peppery fruitiness, like cherries and orange peels that have been soaked in brown sugar and rum, fills my nose.
The taste opens with a distinct jolt of hop bitterness, sweet fruity malts follow and rapidly lead into alcohol heat and an even more pronounced hop bitterness. The aftertaste lingers long -- burnt lemony and peppery hops encrusted with a fragile malt sweetness. Alcohol warmth floats around my nose, throat, and stomach; and would be over-powering if not for the intensity of the other flavors.
Mouthfeel is mildly creamy.
This beer is a big clash of big flavors that come very close to finding synchronicity. It's like three bulls (hops, malt, and alcohol) attempting to break dance in a China closet -- they almost pull it off, but beware the damage!

This was my first ever taste of Sone Old Guardian Barley Wine. I have not had the other years. I was looking forward to trying it.
Served around 55 Degrees
Appearance: A very rocky head made it look beautiful to me. This was a head like no other with many peaks and vallies. The beer itself was clean as a whistle, very clear as is with most Stone beers.
Smell: Very big aroma with sweetness being first then hops coming up quick with just a short but sharp hop aroma and alcohol even warms you at the end of the smell.
Taste: A huge beer. Huge malt presence, not sweet but huge and malty. Hops are there but are mellow compared to what I expected from this beer. Alcohol is very spicy at the end which really warmed me. MMmmmm
Mouthfeel: Excellent full bodied chewy meaty eat it with a fork and knife beer. Just the kind of body I look for in a barley wine.
Not very drinkable only because of the alcohol. I would want to drink this one till I die though.... so good.

This year's version of Stone's barleywine is more potent at 10%. It pours lighter than last year's though, a nice copper color forming a foamy off white head that vanished leaving lacticed lace on the sides. Very little visible carbonation, even with the nice head. An aroma of hops and malt that gets overpowered by the alcohol present. The taste was of hops and malt, but the alcohol once again seemed to cancel out other factors. A bitter finish to it. Not as good as last years, and seams more like an old ale. Is definately one that could use some cellaring to bring out some better qualities.

Beautiful medium copper with a substantial light tan head. Very inviting.
Wow, a myriad of aromas. Lots of hops and generous malt, with a mild sweetness.
Quite young and rough. Good hop bitterness, some malt richness and sweetness, with a slight medicinal character. Needs some time to smooth out.
Rich flavorful, and coating. Not too heavy. Long, lingering bitter finish.
Much different than the 03, with the recipe change. The balance isn't there yet. Good for being young and rough around the edges. Can't wait to see how this one ages. Grab some of this one while it is still available.

Stone's annual "different recipe" barley wine. I envy Stone, thinking of how much fun they have developing a different barley wine year after year.
I hate to reiterate but this beer is pretty light for the style and much lighter in color than last years version. The head: white and creamy and the lace: intricate in its falling. Quite the handsome beer for sure.
The nose is quite alcoholic but also quite tropical. Dripping juicy hops, caramel, melon and pineapple are all over the nose.
This tastes odd. It is quite tasty but this doesn't taste even close to any other barley wines I have had before. The so called "tropical notes" that I experienced in the nose appear old in the flavor and smashed with a hammer. Strong and very pleasant citrus notes in the mid-palate with mandarin oranges, caramel and lemons. The finish is long, quite alcoholic and very bitter.

Presentation: No surprises for Stone Fans, this comes in the usual gold and red screen printed Stone Old Guardian Bottle that has been around for several years now. The only changes to the presentation, are little alterations here and there. It reveals its heritage with a Limited Winter 04 Release date in a starburst at the top left corner on the front of the bottle. Stronger than previous years I note, the strength is listed at 10.06% in the bottom left of the obverse label. I see that Greg has still not lost his knack for the entertaining diatribes that decorate the reverse of the label. I read it twice and still had no fucking idea what the hell was going on. Apart from the fact that a lot of screwing around appears to take place at Stone, I always love the way that they poke fun at themselves, and the serious amongst us, as well enforcing my hatred for the trend towards beer with no carbs, no sugar, no calories, and erm .no taste. Guarding against all things lifeless, lackluster and lo-carb. Gotta love the Stone ethos!!!
Appearance: The first surprise was the color, unless I am very much mistaken, I think that this is much lighter than previous years. Without previous years to compare to thats hard to qualify right now though. Perfectly lucid, it pours with a dark copper color, the head is off-white and it is supported by immense levels of dissolved carbonation, yet it is released in a controlled manner and helps to maintain a nice thick looking ¼ head when swirled. Minimal lacing is easily removed when I swirl the beer.
Nose: Strong alcohol acts like a solvent and dissolves malts and some light sugary caramel together with a strong whiff of freshly harvested hops mixed with some tropical fruits. Juicy and fresh, the hops really come through in the nose when deeply inhaled.
Taste: This has some tastes that I find I cannot explain. I will do my best. Suffice to say there is a strong ale flavor, rather than a Barleywine feel to this youngster. It reminds me of a few strong bitters that I drank in the UK around winter time, in particular it reminded me of Burton Bridge Old Expensive Ale that I tried on Cask many years ago in the UK. A strong bitter-sweet taste that is neither overwhelmingly bitter, nor sweet, if that makes sense. Big Malts and Hops, yet its almost as if the bitterness cuts right through the heavy malts and edges it at this moment in time. Some fruitiness mingles here and there. Time may well alter the balance. Lingering bitterness on the cheeks does not come through on the tongue until long after the beer is swallowed. Powerful.
Mouthfeel: Finishes with a very light alcoholic kick at the end that really does feel as though it will get warmer, but somehow never does, well not until it hits the stomach at least. I had a strong home made Curry tonight, but even so, the burps this induces (no doubt from the carbonation) really take the edge off of my Beef Madras with their juicy hop oils. Quite something.
Drinkability: It went down with no struggles whatsoever! I even considered cracking open a second but its getting late. Very drinkable. But Im biased, I love Stone and I love Old Guardian.
Overall: Still a little raw, but no surprises there. Im lucky, I managed to get a case of this, and I feel that the journey though the Box at 2 to 3 monthly intervals will certainly be a fascinating one. Maybe it needs time to reach its Zenith. Still, I cant wait to update this Review!
Buy a Case of this and take the journey with me!
No disappointments, not your usual Barleywine, just another quality offering from Stone.

Reviewing this one poured from a 22oz bomber. Hopefully will get to try this one on cask in a few days... will submit a 2nd review if that is the case =D
Pours a nice light amber into my pint glass. Creates a very thick off white head.
The smell is very spicy, those hops are definitely in there. Thick and floral, estery. I can already tell this one is going to be huge.
Taste is exceptional for this style. The flavor is rich and sweet, spicy and strong. I can't recall a barley wine to date that compares.
Mouthfeel is very thick, syrupy and alcoholic.. the kind that sits in the throat long after you've swallowed. It is warm and welcome.
I could drink a lot of this one, however I think that it would bring me to an early slumber. Ah hell, I'll drink it as long as I can stay awake. This is a great strong brew.
Overall, I think Stone has outdone themselves. I was a bit skeptical after reading that they had changed the recipe for this one since last year's (or at least the malt profile), but this batch is awesome. I really love barley wines and I think this one has to be my favorite to date!

The much anticipated OG from Stone...good times are ahead! Anyways this beer poured quite a bit lighter than previous years with a medium copper color and a very thick white head that would not leave till the last drop. This beer smelled wonderful with a great citrus smell and the smell of some kind of tropical friut, maybe mango or pinnaple with a hint of malt thrown in there as well. The flavor was completly different than years past with an increased citrus bite and a great dry hoppy finnish. This one does not hide the alchohol as good as the 02 and 03 did but I think a big reason for that is the early stage that the beer is currently in. In the end this is an exceptional Barleywine and another classic offering from Stone.

- Favorite SpotPeggersVIPDined on 8/28/2014We came here for our anniversary. Everyone loved their dish, except for me. I ordered the pork. What was I thinking? Dio Deka does lamb better than any other restaurant I've been to, and our guests raved about their lamb shank and lamb chops. My pork was dry, hard, and tough. We will definitely venture back and stick with the tried and true lamb. The service was outstanding and we love the setting.Special Features:
- Too much salt in the foodEljefegeneoDined on 8/28/2014Went there for our anniversary. I remember it from a few years ago as a great place to go. Everything was very good, except it seemed that they put an entire salt shaker into every dish. Should have sent the food back. Doubt I will ever go back again. No need to sped that kind of money for salty food.
- Never DisappointedBeeEyezDined on 8/23/2014I can't count how many times I've come here and just been blown away by how amazing everything is. The food was perfect (per usual), the staff was very helpful and quick to refill water/pita bread. Being that this was an anniversary dinner, they made it really special by telling us "happy anniversary" not only verbally, but it was also printed on the menus. If this was my last meal on earth, i would be a happy man. Thank you Dio Deka!Special Features:
- Amazing food!OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 8/23/2014I've eaten here several times - with a large group, a group of four and most recently with just my husband. It was top notch every time and the food was consistently outstanding. The grilled octopus starter is to die for, the brussels sprouts (even without the bacon) were outstanding and the honey was divine. I had the brazino as the main course and it was perfectly done, a very good portion, and the potatoes are to die for. Ending the night with the loukoumathes (Greek beignets) was the perfect choice. I'll definitely be back!Special Features:
- Gorgeous location, exceptional foodsfdinerDined on 8/23/2014We thoroughly enjoyed our evening at Dio Deka. The restaurant is located in the beautiful Hotel Los Gatos and the ambiance is inviting. The staff, without exception, were gracious and welcoming. Our waiter was superb and helpful. The food, from the delicious pita bread and selection of Greek dips to two of the most wonderful steaks we have ever had, was exquisite and memorable. Our waiter did not push expensive wine on us. Upon hearing we would share one glass of wine with our meal, he recommended a superb Pinot Noir that complemented the meal perfectly. It was a 10 out of 10 evening. We will definitely return.Special Features:
- Dio Deka was superb.OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 8/22/2014The dishes were fantastic and flavors were amazing. I felt as if I were eating in Greece due to the freshness of the ingredients. We didn't get to have entrees because we were so full with the appetizers. We will definitely be back. Service was also excellent!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/19/2014The food was the biggest disappointment. My date and I both only ate half of the lamb we ordered b/c it just wasn't good.Special Features:
- JamsyDined on 8/18/2014The food was fabulous and the restaurant was quiet! We'll certainly be going back again. It was our anniversary and they prepared a special dessert. Corkage fee was too high.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent !StevenDined on 8/18/2014We'll be back for the chops and octopus. Thank you for the great service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Restaurant experienceToryVDined on 8/17/2014Very tasty food. Love Greek cuisine and extremely interesting wine list. My son and his wife travel to Greece often and they introduced this place to us.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Greek heavenJamesVIPDined on 8/14/2014The Greek food is great the grilled octopus is the best I have had in the USSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Romantic EveningOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/3/2014Wife and I had a romantic night out at this restaurant. Here are some of the feedback, - Great spot for romantic dinner - Good food but not excellent (Not a Micheline star quality) - Outstanding customer service overallSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Expensive, but specialoldindieDined on 8/2/2014Excellent food and service. Open indoor setting is a bit loud, but not offensive. Outside seemed OK.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistently goodFoodie4VIPDined on 8/1/2014Food is always good, though sometimes a bit salty. It would be nice to have some specials as the menu doesn't change very much.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistently enjoyable experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/1/2014Dined here more than eight times with small group, family, large group, business associates, and romatic drop in dinner. It's always good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Upscale Mediterranean RestaurantMikeCVIPDined on 7/29/2014This is an upscale Mediterranean restaurant with haute cuisine twists on old favorites, such as the saganaki with filo. The service was excellent.Special Features:
- Incredible FoodJBReviewDined on 7/28/2014The food is out of this world. I suggest ordering several appetizers and then sharing a main course. It gives you the ability to sample all of their delicious selections.Special Features:
- Never a bad meal!!!Sami77Dined on 7/26/2014It's the best time and time again, they treat you like family. Thank you to the whole Dio Deka team. Of course we will be back soon!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- sumitVIPDined on 7/25/2014so so-- lamb was good, but overpriced, in my opinion. scallop was ok, but what came with it was poor.
- Good but not greatTordenskjoldDined on 7/25/2014Dio Deka had a Michelin star until 2012. So last week, being in Los Gatos we decided to give it a try to see how they are doing at the moment. The Greek inspired menu provided good choice with interesting options. The food itself was well prepared and the service friendly and forthcoming. All in all quite good but definitely not a restaurant back on track to returning to Michelin star status. While tasty, there was no "whoa"-moment and there really was nothing innovative. So for a 150 dollar per person we left not disappointed but in the knowledge that DioDeka will probably not return to the little red book any time soon. That being said I'd recommend the place for a nice dinner or small celebrations.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OutstandingStevenDined on 7/24/2014Loved the prawns, enjoyed the green salad and the new pork dish was superb. Well executed service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- SK25Dined on 7/22/2014We thouroghly enjoyed the food and hospitality by the owner himself. Very friendly staff and considerate.Special Features:
- Great time!OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 7/19/2014I have been here few years back when they won the Michelin Star rating. Was worried this time as they have since then lost the rating. On top of it, it was my invite with my colleagues and families. It was successful evening! My guests enjoyed the service and the food, though I must say the dessert was wanting a bit after our great experience with dessert at The Plumed Horse in Saratoga. The wine was great and the service was great as well. Moussaka was perfect! So, were all the appetizers. However, I am not sure I will go back as I really like to have good dessert at the end and that was an area they fell short - didn't like the Greek Beignets.Special Features:
- Great food!kryronDined on 7/14/2014A little over-pricey, but the service was great and the food was great. We noticed a lot of business dinners going around. There is a slight dress code, business casual, just no shorts and sandals allowed. Because the price is pretty high, plus the portions are small, we would only go for special occasions.Special Features:
- Fabulous!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/13/2014The food at Dio Deka was absolutely amazing! Expensive, but worth it! We both had the lamb chops for our main course, and I could not fault one thing! The sauce and marinade made the meat taste like ambrosia. The potatoes were little, lemony and crisp! And the spinach was delightful. We had the lobster salad special for a starter, which was simply marvellous! And the ribs were great, too - but not as good as the lobster! We brought our own wine, but the wine list looked full and had a lot of variety. Highly recommend Dio Deka, but just know that our meal with two starters and two main courses and our own wine (with corkage charge) was over $200 for 2.Special Features:
- YummyDined on 7/13/2014We enjoyed the entire experience. From the moment we walked in the door to the moment we left. The ambiance lovely. We were greeted Dan, our waiter was upbeat, patient, a good listener and attended to our every need. The food was over the top and the presentation artistic.Special Features:
- Great Greek dining experienceavikDined on 7/12/2014Very nice ambience and a great wine list. All the items on the menu were great. No options for vegetarians though on the menu (we had a vegetarian with us in the group).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Superb anniversary dinnerLassieDined on 7/12/2014We wanted to go somewhere new to us for our anniversary celebration. It did not disappoint. We had been warned about noise level, but it was fine perhaps because there were a couple empty tables near us. The dining room was a little darker than necessary. Outside seating with heat lamps looked desirable. Our waiter was attentive and made helpful recommendations. We loved everything we ordered: spinach phyllo pastry had a nice touch of dill; moussaka, grilled lamb chops. And happily, we saved room for dessert: burnt honey mousse (amazing!) and chocolate caramel tart. They were also thoughtful to add a couple beignets as an anniversary surprise. I would be delighted to come here again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great serviceDiningduoDined on 7/8/2014Server was excellent he helped us with excellent wine choices to accompany our meal, he was pleasant and very informative. I enjoyed my lamb dinner more than my spouse enjoyed his rib eye. The rib eye was seasoned with some kind of mint seasoning and it threw off the beef taste for us. We loved our wines and lobster salad as our appetizer. We did not have dessert. It was kinda pricey but reasonable for a special night out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OutstandingTraceminsDined on 7/3/2014I don't normally spend time doing reviews, but the food, ambiance, and service was so good, I had to. I can't recommend this place highly enough if you're not on a budget. Excellent overall.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great foodGeraldDined on 6/28/2014We've been here twice and both times didn't disappoint. The staff is friendly and the food is simply terrificSpecial Features:
- Great food, too noisy, poor serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 6/27/2014We went here for a special occasion as it's fairly expensive. The food was excellent. The noise level is too high and it's unfortunate because that is something they could do something about - the acoustics are horrid. The worst part was that although the service was ok at the beginning it became very poor. We were essentially ignored until we'd finished and waited for a while before the waiter came back to ask us if we wanted desert. At that point all we wanted was the check - and to not come back!
- Dio Deka Greek UpscaleBrianMiyakusuDined on 6/26/2014First time visit to Dio Deka and the experience was very good. Darryl took care of us expertly and was very gracious. Upon finding out it was our first time he brought perfectly cooked head on seasoned prawns. We split the Dolmathakia which was very savory with the beef cheek, complemented by the mushrooms and had a wonderful mouth feel. Amy ordered the Ktenia and the scallops were firm and not overcooked. The flavor of chanterelles and lemon were just enough to accent the sweet of the seared scallop. I ordered the Paithakia grilled lamb which was wonderfully medium rare with a flavorful oregano char. Dessert: traditional greek beignets. Darryl brought us glasses of paired wines and a dessert wine with coffee to finish. Awesome evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Medium Rare means Medium RareOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 6/24/2014Long story made short, I ordered the lamb. Would have been excellent but over-cooked. Also, you better want to eat fast, they like to turn their tables. Felt rushed.Special Features:
- Excellent ServiceOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 6/22/2014We were very pleased with the waiter. Food was excellent.
- NorthstarVIPDined on 6/22/2014Been here before. Great again, with the possible exception of the pricing. $57 for lamp chops---ala carte, no sides. Come on. Other menu items priced on the high side, but OK given the overall experience.Special Features:
- PleasantArbeeVIPDined on 6/22/2014The food and service were pleasant, although the food was on the verge of being too salty.
- DrJimmyVIPDined on 6/20/2014If you want an unforgettable dining experience then ask for Athos...he is the best waiter!
- Very ExpensivePriceyDined on 6/20/2014Some menu items were fantastic, while others didn't meet the hype, making dinner for two at $180 (without alcohol) too steep for us to justify a second visit.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always fantastic!CleanGourmetDined on 6/19/2014Lovely as usual...the food and the service are always top notch. Always my first choice in Los Gatos.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Students majoring in English may choose between two courses of study:
"In a very real sense, people who have read good literature have lived more than people who cannot or will not read . . . it is not true that we have only one life to live; if we can read, we can live as many more lives and as many kinds of lives as we wish."
Studies in English language and literature help students develop communication skills, analytical thinking, and creative imagination. All students at College of the Ozarks benefit from the English department's commitment to the personal and professional growth of its students. Because literature offers numerous representations of human behavior, the natural world, and the spiritual realm, our literature and language courses provide endless opportunities to discuss ideas, analyze causes, anticipate consequences, speculate possibilities, consider recommendations, test theories, and negotiate solutions. Consequently, we believe our English majors are better prepared for the challenges they will encounter in both their professional and personal lives.
The department offers courses leading to an English major and to minors in both Literature and Rhetoric. The liberal arts curriculum prepares students for a variety of professions, including teaching, law, business management, and publishing. Students wishing to pursue graduate studies after leaving the College will have a strong foundation upon which to build.
Courses in American, British and Western Literature, composition and rhetoric, literary theory, and special topics provide this foundation. Also available are courses designed for prospective teachers: Teaching Composition, Methods of Teaching English, and Multicultural and Adolescent Literature. The program is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools and by Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.
It is possible for students with special needs and interests, working closely with a faculty member, to design individualized courses or plan interdisciplinary majors.

All full-time students are employed in the College Work Education program, which helps cover the cost of education. Many work assignments reinforce an academic program in English, including positions in the library, radio station, student newspaper, public relations office, Center for Writing and Thinking, and Faculty Services office. In addition, Bonner students often tutor students in local school districts.
The English department sponsors an annual creative writing contest that is open to all C of 0 students. This competition includes categories in poetry, fiction, non-fiction, and literary criticism
To encourage professional awareness and growth, the department facilitates student participation in local and national conferences and competitions.

Select Route:
A great pocketed route with lots of chalk up a slightly overhanging face. The technical crux is down low; the enduro crux is up high.
The route is well bolted and has a bolted anchor.
This route is located on the Left Flank wall, and is the left-most route on the crag, about 20' left of a striking 5.12a arete. To reach Left Flank, take 77 East through the Nada Tunnel, then 1 more mile East to the Martin's Fork trailhead on the left. Cross the street and take the Military Wall/Left Flank trailhead, then bear left at the Y.

Scunthorpe United recall Collins, leaving Ardley to deliver a rallying call to his troops
1:23pm Thursday 3rd April 2014 in Football By Bruce Archer, Reporter
AFC Wimbledon boss Neal Ardley has challenged his squad to deal with the loss of Michael Collins in their remaining League Two matches.
The 27-year-old midfielder's contract with the club has been cancelled as his parent club, Scunthorpe United, have recalled him with immediate effect.
Collins, who joined on-loan in February until the end of the season in a deal which included a call-back option, started nine times for the Dons in a period where the side picked up a crucial 10 points.
Wimbledon now sit 17th, eight points clear of the relegation zone with six games remaining.
"Michael did a great job for us," Ardley told the club website. "It was a pleasure to work with.
"He got stronger the more games that he had here and I hope he plays matches at Scunthorpe.
"We wish him all the best, but now it's an opportunity for other players to prove their worth."

Maintaning a high level of government funding has become a major goal of the US scientific community and US universities, at a cost to the practice of science. This brief argues that reforms could begin with Washington setting a modest overhead rate for all federal grant recipients and for universities to sponsor pro bono research, reviving the land-grant university ethos of an earlier age.
Colorado's Ridgeview Classical Schools places, at once, emphasis on the community of learning and on individual thought. This kind of education has the power to form a graduate who is especially well equipped to fulfill the duties of citizenship because his or her commitment to America is reflective, clear-sighted, and mature.
Architectural citizenship, properly understood, is the dynamic interaction between multiple factors—formal law, the social context, the needs and aspirations of the client, and the conduct of the architect. Good architecturalmanners depend on the vigorous and healthy interplay between them, and a change in one cannot help but exert an effect on the others, for better or worse.
In a lecture marking the 226th anniversary of the signing of the US Constitution, Michael P. Zuckert critically examines the leading "pro" and "antislavery" interpretations of the Constitutional Convention and offers an alternative analysis tied to a more accurate and less anachronistic reading of the principles and politics of the Founding era.
Thanksgiving is a venerable and much beloved American holiday. But what do we celebrate on Thanksgiving? This collection of stories, speeches, and songs examines the meaning of Thanksgiving Day, with selections by American authors such as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Jack London, Langston Hughes, Sarah Orne Jewett and O. Henry, to name just a few.
Each November 11, our nation commemorates Veterans Day. But what does the holiday mean, and how do we properly observe it?

Which metropolitan region in America comes closest to embodying the aspirations of John Rawls? The surprising answer is the Salt Lake City metropolis.
Last month, the US Army Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) returned to the City College of New York after a 41-year absence. If successful, it can serve as an example for big-city campuses in other underserved areas like Chicago and Los Angeles.
If in Alexis de Tocqueville's time, publicly minded lawyers prized precedent above all, then today's legal profession seems too often to argue primarily from abstract theories of rights. As legal practice has become ever more specialized and focused on money-making, lawyers have become less pulic-minded and less able to meaningfully engage in civic life.
Please join AEI for a conversation among several contributors to the new volume "Teacher Quality 2.0: Toward a New Era in Education Reform" (Harvard Education Press, 2014), edited by Frederick M. Hess and Michael Q. McShane. Panelists will discuss the intersection of teacher-quality policy and innovation, exploring roadblocks and possibilities.

Shortly after Vince Young indicated on Twitter Monday that he had been released by the Bills, the team confirmed the news.
Young, the third overall pick in the 2006 NFL draft, tweeted "I want to thank the Bills organization for the opportunity and wish the organization and my teammates good luck this season. Respect Bills fans."
The Bills' trade for ex-Seahawks QB Tarvaris Jackson Sunday night seemed to indicate that Young's time in Buffalo was coming to an end and the team proved that by releasing him Monday.
In extended playing time in the Bills' third preseason game against Pittsburgh, Young completed just 12-of-26 passes for 103 yards with two interceptions. Jackson will now be the top backup behind starter Ryan Fitzpatrick on the Bills' QB depth chart.

NIAGARA FALLS, Ontario (AP) -- A new company has been chosen to operate the tour boats that chug to the base of Niagara Falls from the Canadian shore.
The Niagara Parks Commission in Ontario says Wednesday that Hornblower Canada Co. has been awarded the contract for the popular boats that for more than 100 years have been run by the Maid of the Mist Steamboat Co.
The Maid of the Mist Corp. still holds the contract to launch tours from New York.
The parks commission says the new contract could generate more than $500 million in revenue over its 30-year span.
The commission had approved a 25-year contract with the Maid of the Mist in 2008. But the lack of competition for the deal drew criticism, so the commission called for bids.

Gross says he's agreed to take a pay cut to remain with the Carolina Panthers.||||||| Gross' new deal is worth $5.5 million in 2013 and will void out after the season, making him a free agent. That's significantly less than the 10-year veteran was scheduled to make the next two seasons. The two-time Pro Bowl selection was scheduled to earn $8.7 million this year and $6.7 million in 2014.

"It's not like there are any easy weeks in the NFL. This one is just a little more special than others," Gross said. "I've been going against Pep as long as I've been in the pros, and he's always given me a handful. It's not going to be any different on Sunday."
Gross broke his right leg, not his ankle, as the team first announced. The 2008 Pro Bowl pick still plans on being ready for the start of next season.||||||| Wearing a large cast and leaning on crutches, Gross visited his teammates at Bank of America Stadium on Monday for the first time since suffering the gruesome, season-ending injury against Atlanta on Nov. 15. "For next season, I have no concerns at all," Gross said.
The Panthers signed All-Pro left tackle Jordan Gross to a six-year deal on Thursday, the same day they placed the franchise tag on defensive end Julius Peppers.||||||| Terms of Gross' deal were not immediately available, but he's expected to become one of the NFL's highest-paid offensive lineman. The agreement Thursday ends more than a year of negotiations and removes a big obstacle in their efforts to deal with Peppers.

Sizemore to slide to No. 2 spot in order
Cabrera to lead off as Indians try to create more runs
GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- New Tribe manager Manny Acta believes having a guy like Grady Sizemore in the leadoff spot of a lineup is a luxury.A luxury, Acta reasoned, that the Indians can't afford right now. Acta has decided to place Sizemore, a three-time All-Star and a Silver Slugger winner in 2008, in the No. 2 slot of his lineup, with shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera taking over the leadoff slot. Part of the reasoning behind the move is the absence of a middle-of-the-order presence like Victor Martinez, who was dealt to the Red Sox last year. "We need to lengthen our lineup," Acta explained Saturday. Acta has had this move in mind since he took over the job in October. But he waited until he could talk to Sizemore in person to make it official. "You don't just send messages through the press," Acta said. "We owed him a lot of respect." Sizemore was told of the move last week and had a few days to think about it. Ultimately, he had no trouble signing off on it. "It's fine," Sizemore said. "I've always said I don't really care where I hit in the lineup. Manny wanted my opinion on it, and I said it's fine. I just want to do what's best for the team. This is what he believes and what we feel is going to be what's best." Right fielder Shin-Soo Choo and designated hitter Travis Hafner will follow Cabrera and Sizemore in Acta's lineup. The rest is not confirmed, though it's probably safe to assume newly acquired first baseman Russell Branyan and third baseman Jhonny Peralta will be somewhere in the middle. While the Sizemore move generated a bit of a buzz in an otherwise quiet camp, it is hardly without precedent. Acta's predecessor, Eric Wedge, tried Sizemore in the No. 2 spot for about five weeks total last season -- the two weeks before Sizemore went on the disabled list with a bum elbow in early June and the last few weeks before the All-Star break. Cabrera moved up to No. 1 before injuring his shoulder, at which point Jamey Carroll took over the primary leadoff duties for a spell. After the break, Sizemore was back at leadoff. Also, in August of '07, Wedge briefly had Sizemore batting third, with Kenny Lofton in the leadoff spot, but that experiment was abandoned quickly. Sizemore said the latest alteration to his spot in the order won't affect his approach at the plate. "I'm not going to change my approach in any way," he said. "[Manny] doesn't want me to. It's just what he thinks is going to help us offensively to score more runs." Because of Sizemore's power potential (he hit a career-high 33 homers in 2008), fans have long been clamoring for him to move down in the order, where he'd have more RBI situations.

Pidyon HaBen is a Jewish ritual associated with the birth of a baby boy. It literally means "redemption of the firstborn" and comes from the ancient custom of dedicating a firstborn son to the service of God in the Temple.
During the ritual, which took place thirty-one days after the child was born, the father would pay a priest (Kohen) five silver shekels so that the child would be released from the obligation to serve in the temple. Today parents who observe this custom will use five silver dollars to symbolically pay a descendant of the Kohanim (plural of Kohen). The payment is symbolic because the Temple is no longer standing and hence, there are no priests to run it.
The practice of Pidyon HaBen is referenced in Exodus 13:2. Here the text reminds us how God spared the firstborn of Israel, and killed the firstborn of Egypt, during the last of the 10 Plagues. In remembrance of this fact, God declares that firstborn sons belong to God: "Consecrate to me all the firstborn. Whatever is the first to open the womb among the people of Israel, both of man and of beast, is mine."
Who Is Firstborn?
Although it seems like "firstborn" would simply refer to the first son born to a couple, there are specific qualities that would qualify a baby for service in the temple. Thus, Pidyon HaBen is only necessary if the following four things apply to the baby:
- He is the first child born to his mother.
- His parents are neither Kohanim or Levites.
- He was born naturally (vaginally), not through a C-section.
- His mother has never had a miscarriage more than 40 days into a pregnancy

Helping the Sickest Survive H1N1 [aka Swine] Flu
October 14, 2009 at 3:36 pm , by Julia Kagan
Yesterday Emily, my health-blogging-partner-in-crime, and I were standing in line to get our seasonal flu shot like employees all over America whose companies are generous enough to provide them (thank you, Meredith!). Needless to say, everyone in line was talking about H1N1, the kind of flu shot we're not getting because (1) the vaccine's still in seriously short supply and (2) most employees are not in the high-risk groups. (See Emily's story about who is.)
The best way to avoid the flu (either kind) is to wash your hands often; avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth; sneeze or cough into a tissue or your elbow; and stay home when you have flu-like symptoms until you've had no fever (without any medication) for 24 hours. Most people who get H1N1 have mild cases and recover quickly. But a small number (roughly 4 percent in a new Canadian study) develop sometimes fatal lung inflammation and other symptoms (usually about four days after first getting sick) that land them in intensive care. Studies just published by The Journal of the American Medical Association give us an early look at what might help them survive, Two findings to remember:
• Tamiflu. In Mexico, critically ill patients who survived were seven times more likely to have taken Tamiflu. Ask about it even if you think you have a mild case.
• Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). This technique—used in heart-bypass surgery—passes a patient's blood through a machine that adds oxygen and returns it to the body because severe illness can block the body's ability to get oxygen. ECMO helped patients in Australia and New Zealand pull through.
For the latest H1N1 news, see the Centers for Disease Control. (Photo by quinn.anya.)

Whether you have kids at home looking for summer projects or you just love DIY's, we found a great idea for you! This driftwood, airplant wall art is modern, easy to make, and very cool.
All you need is a great piece of driftwood, a few airplants, hammer, sawtooth hangers, and nails. Make sure there are at least a couple flat surfaces on your piece of driftwood so it can hang it from the wall.
While you're cleaning your piece of driftwood, soak and clean your airplants then set aside and let them dry.
Find two flat spots (depending how long your driftwood is) and use small nails to secure the sawtooth hangers. Place a couple larger nails in the wall and hang your driftwood. Since it naturally has curves, you don't have to worry about it looking perfectly straight.
Once you hang it, you can carefully place your airplants anywhere you like, making sure to balance them out along the entire piece of driftwood.
The best part about this modern DIY accessory is that it could also be a beautiful memory, depending on where and how you found your driftwood... Like, a romantic stroll on the beach or play day on the beach with the kids!
Watch the tutorial video at Craftzine. And if you don't know where to source air plants, here's a fun Etsy shop.

Audrey Hepburn's little black Givenchy dress that was worn in the opening of Breakfast at Tiffany's is one of the most iconic clothing items in history. It has become such an integral part of every woman's wardrobe, such that you probably can't name any woman that doesn't own a little black dress. The perfect choice of accessories can turn this dress into an elegant evening gown, but the design of the dress is all about simple form.
How do you bring these features into your home? It can be as simple as adding a beautiful chandelier. The chandelier (below) has a very simple form but the sweeping strands of delicate chains drape to create a look that resembles the strands of pearls adorning Audrey Hepburn's neck.
Sweeping Chain 6-Light Black Chandelier
The gentle curves and shiny black marble of the accent table (below) would add elegance to any room. The simplicity of form and polished nickel details combine to create a striking side table that becomes timeless in any setting.
Arteriors Home Aries Polished Nickel & Marble Table
These pearls trace the form of the Hepburn's dress with perfection. A simple silhouette shows off her wonderful shoulders and defines her curves.
This stylish, bold dining chair (below) is delicate yet sturdy. It does a great job of showing off curves, much like the Givenchy dress. Modern dining chairs fit into any setting from the outdoors to in, upgrading even the side of a bed when used as a nightstand.

Adding a decorative wall mirror into your space can add a touch of sophistication, much like a pearl or diamond necklace can add to a classic dress. The perfect finishing touches can transform your space from casual to elegant in an instant.

The London based artist Shantell Martin, who is known for her stream-of-consciousness drawings, decided to create some modern wall art in her own Brooklyn bedroom and ended up make a big statement. Although she didn't set out to cover the entire room, she ended up covering the walls, ceilings, and furniture with her oh-so-cool freestyle line drawings. When her friends invited Ms. Martin into their home they knew she was going to be drawing on her walls and there would be nothing they could do. So they made just one request, "Don't touch the hallway."
You will see the words "Who Are You" and "Who Am I" repeat a lot throughout her modern wall art displays.
"When invited to talk at conferences and festivals about digital drawing or creativity, I like to start with showing a photograph of my younger self with my brother and sisters. In the photograph I'm about nine years old with a little Afro, brown skin and Michael Jackson shorts standing next to my very blond and blue-eyed brother and four sisters, this is the beginning my story." -Shantell Martin
The stories even continue onto the door knob. So far, Ms. Martin has used about 25 pens and I think it's safe to assume she's a pretty good customer over at Blick Art Supplies!
One of her own drawings is framed and layered over the rest of her wall art. Martin says this is "to give it space to breathe."
Uncommon objects on common grounds, that's where a layer of gesso can take you. Bottles found on the street or out-and-about are covered in gesso to make them uniform and then used as a canvas for Martin to create her art.
Compact spaces with small modern desks are not normally what you would find in an artist's studio, but Martin works hard in her small office. She is in the process of planning a one-woman show later this year. With her work at such places as New York's Museum of Modern Art, the megaclubs of Tokyo and Russia, and on the enormous screens at Shibuya and Harajuku crossings in Tokyo, you can only imagine how incredible this upcoming show will be!
The furniture in her quaint little bedroom doesn't interfere with the black and white line drawings covering the walls of her room. Like in this space, bright red accents make a perfect splash of color! Simple open shelving displays the painted bottles and found objects while bold, black and white striped bedding creates a the grounding element.
These toys sitting on the floor are just waiting to be gessoed.
You can see Shantell Martin's work in a variety of places. She collaborated with 3 x 1 to create custom jeans on site in their denim atelier.
I'm excited to see more innovative work from this amazing artist... I would love to see a line of wallpaper or fabrics from her! Crossing my fingers!

Wishing you all a Happy 4th of July! Whatever it is you choose to do just remember to have fun, relax, and be safe!
Spending time with family and friends in the backyard is always one of my favorite ways to spend Independence Day and this outdoor cabana seems perfect for it!
Za Bor Architects developed this project for a popular TV show called, Dachniy Otvet, meaning The Village Talks. Unfortunately the TV show was not filmed at my home... I will have to find an equally cool backyard to celebrate Independence Day.
The concept behind this reality show intrigues me and this architecture definitely brings new meaning to outdoor cabana. The show invites designers and architects to re-design parts of a home for selected home-owners that agreed to participate in the show. These home-owners wanted somewhere to spend more quality time outdoors. The white tinted wood creates fourteen planes that are attached together, forming this nautical shape. The result is an outdoor structure, perfect for BBQ'ing.
Red lighting fixtures, or any color for that matter, bring so much dynamic energy into any dining area while modern white dining chairs keep the space very clean, allowing nature and colorful accents to stand out.
The second part to the structure houses the outdoor kitchen. The char-grill is made of brick and steel and is sure to cook up a killer BBQ!
BBQ until the sun goes down, then turn on the modern outdoor lighting. This sculpture is sure to turn into a artistic light installation after sundown...
The architect's concept for the construction is "transparency and openness which inspires a contact between man and nature".
Hope you get to spend some time outside today... Happy Independence Day from the ESL team!

Of course we all know, nothing in life is black and white, clear and simple, but sometimes it looks really good when you're talking about interiors! The bold, stark contrast provides a modern element and leaves room for more casual furnishings, like seen above. That sofa is a little worn, arguably vintage, as well as the table, but the color palette of the space screams modern.
But, no matter the style, whether a room is modern, traditional, black and white, or colorful, any decor benefits from the use of mixed materials. The iron chair, leather sofa and rustic wood table make a perfect trio. These Zuo accent chairs below are a great way to get this look. Their leaf inspired pattern gives them an organic aesthetic.
Whitworth Chrome Accent Chair
Art is a great way to bring in color, but it's also a cool way to bring in the bold! This black and white art collage leaning against the wall creates a laid back environment that is highly stylish.
This kitchen is on trend with its clean white walls, industrial lighting and dark, black cabinets.
Want to get this simple, yet chic look? Here's an idea for getting modern industrial pendant lighting for your own home.
LBL Isla Mini Pendant
While designing using the modern black and white combo, this living room also brings in a natural element by using lots of wood finishes. There is a lot of furniture in this space, but it's grouped efficiently and doesn't look cluttered. The use of multiple small accent tables instead of a coffee table is a popular trend right now. It provides versatility and a more eclectic look.
Don't be scared to go bold, there's lots of ways to use this cool color palette!

Mark Waid: Swinging over to AmazingA comics interview article by: Dave Wallace
Yesterday at the New York Comic Con, Marvel announced that Mark Waid will soon be joining the writing team on Amazing Spider-Man, Comics Bulletin's Dave Wallace spoke to the writer about his upcoming work on the book.
Dave Wallace: Mark, tell us how you came to be working on Amazing Spider-Man? Is this something that you've been planning with Marvel for a while, or did the stars just happen to align and allow you to take on the project?
Mark Waid: It's something that Sociable Steve Wacker and I have been talking about since he moved downtown from That Other Place. I've always loved working with Steve, and we've been struggling for a while now to make the timing click so I could be one of the Spider-Players. Luckily for me, I finally found time in my ninety-hours-a-week day job as Boom! editor in chief to come aboard.
DW: How difficult has it been to juggle your ongoing comics writing work and your editorial duties at Boom! Studios? Is it difficult to prioritise and to put one role above the other, or do you find that the two complement each other?
MW: I won't lie - it's not easy, because heading up Boom! is a big job (but one I love and wouldn't trade!). Being an E-I-C means you don't get to clock out at five and relax into your writing - it means you have to fight to find the time and energy to write at the end of a long day. That said, though, here's the takeaway - at Boom!, I'm working with so many new writers with new voices that it energizes me and forces me to raise the level of my game as a storyteller. Everybody wins.
DW: Back to Amazing Spider-Man: how many issues of the book will you be writing? Can you give us any hints as to the artist(s) that you'll be working with?
MW: Heck, I'll take 'em all. We're still mapping it out, but so many talented artists are now in that stable. Kitson and I are a natural team; JRJR and I have been talking about doing something together for years; Marcos Martin is the freshest young artist to hit big in a long time... grease Wacker's palm and see if he'll give up anything.
DW: As far as you're concerned, what's the essence of Spider-Man's appeal? What makes this a fun book to write?
MW: The essence of his appeal, both for readers and for me, is twofold. One, he faces the sorts of struggles that we all face on a daily basis--the absurd little things that come along on an hourly basis to remind you that there will always, always, always be some aspect of your life that isn't going according to plan, and that aspect changes every day. And two, Spider-Man is FUNNY. He's genuinely funny. His dialogue is a joy to write, and if you don't have your readers chuckling or even laughing out loud a few times per issue, you should go write Thor or something. Spidey is a RIOT.
DW: How do you think that Amazing Spider-Man has benefited as a result of the "One More Day"/"Brand New Day" story arcs? Do you feel as though your work on the book is going to take full advantage of the new "Brand New Day" status quo?
MW: I do, because there's a new energy to the supporting cast and how they relate to Peter. He's no longer the guy anyone in his little world could ever envy, which he kinda was before "BND." That seems like a small change, but the effect is huge, and it affects how everyone acts towards and around Peter.
DW: How closely have you been working with the other writers of the "Spidey Braintrust" whilst planning your story?
MW: I pitched out the first scene of the story I want to do and talked at great length about one of the villains, and either they were all really drunk or they were all really supportive. Perhaps both. But they've been great and accommodating, and I'm flattered to be welcomed into that club.
DW: Can you give us any details about your story yet?
MW: Not yet, other than to say we're setting JJJ up for his worst nightmare. His recent heart attack? He'll look back on that fondly once he finds out what we have in store for him.
