Uncle Mike's Kosher steakhouse and deli, Lakewood
This place has just opened up and has very odd hours it is open Sunday through Wednesday noon to 10 PM closed Friday and Saturday.
I don't know if this is a steakhouse or a deli the one thing that I do know is that they are not bashful with their prices. They have no liquor license. I did go for lunch at 12 o'clock however they were not open.
Does anybody have a review or can tell me if this place is worth a visit.

Looking for Myrtle Beach dining with ocean view
I second the Sea Capt.'s house, which is right on the ocean. This venue is not only good for breakfast but lunch and dinner. The new bar is a major asset... I consider the Sea Capt.'s house in the top five restaurants in the grand strand .. The only problem, sometimes the parking but this time of year you should GOOD
As per your suggestion I did email Danny at Danny's steakhouse restaurant site. I Did bring forth our displeasure with the food and wait staff however to date Danny nor a member of the staff has not replied. Perhaps Danny spends too much time ice boating and not addressing issues at his restaurant.

Best Portuguese in Iron Bound?
Went to the Iberian Peninsula about 10 days ago. We found it to be substandard and not even a shell of what it used to be. We asked for some cold lobsters they stated that they do not serve cold lobsters anymore. We then ordered the broiled lobsters without stuffing all three orders came with stuffing. I know at times there is a language problem however all of the wait staff are great at math.
To make a trip Newark for the ironbound section, may be a major disappointment depending on what restaurant you choose.

I believe restaurant impossible is with Chef Robert Irvine .Why does Danny pick his spot on what table to visit ..Where is Char located ?
I must reiterate, the server disappeared into the kitchen and we did not see her for a long period of time. In the interim we were forced to eat a portion of the steak.
It is our belief that when you go to a upscale restaurant the food is normally cooked properly and you don't have to chase the wait staff to address issues or to get assistance. I don't normally like to send food back. I feel that people that do this for the most part are obnoxious .They often times overreact to a an oculus situation.
Going out to dinner and paying a bill in excess of $130 should not entail any anxiety or blood pressure elevation.
We did attempt to speak to the server however she disappeared back in the kitchen area. Being hungry we did eat a portion of the steak that was more well done. If I could've contacted the server I most certainly would have addressed this issue with her.
I must preface this by stating in the past visits to Danny's the food was good and the service was spotty.
During our last visit we ordered a porterhouse for two cooked medium. When the steak came it had a cold center and was raw. We attempted to contact our wait staff person however she was very elusive and for whatever reason avoided further contact with our table ...We ate a small portion of the steak.
For a restaurant that considers themselves as a steakhouse this is a major faux pas to grill a $70 steak improperly.
We did see Danny speaking to other patrons however he never got to our table. Needless to say the tip reflected our dissatisfaction. I will note that the salads and side dishes were excellent.
To make a long story short we traveled 45 minutes to Danny's and found it to be a disappointment. I do not like to be confrontational or send back a meal but if there was a case for us to voice our displeasure this was one of them.
As a caveat to Danny if your service/ food problems are not corrected the next stop may be'' restaurant impossible''.
PS: the valet was a highlight of the evening our car was waiting right in front of the restaurant

Chef Mike's MBG ,charge extra for Ice ?
After reviewing my post I think I would be remiss by not saying that Chef Mike's ABG restaurant is one of the top restaurants in the shore area and in my opinion the best Ocean County. The food has always been exceptional, the wait staff is well trained and attentive. The view is second to none.. When Chef Mike was with 709 Arnold Ave. we followed him to that location and again found superior cuisine and a professional wait staff .

Chef Mike's MBG ,charge extra for Ice ?
Most recently I went to Chef Mike's ABG and ran into something that confused me. I ordered Johnny Walker red on the rocks and was originally charged eight dollars. Upon my second drink I was charged $10 when I received the check I asked the bar person why. She stated that there was a dollar extra for drinks on the rocks. Please note that she did not advise me of this until I pointed this out on the check.
This caused me concern and I wrote Chef Mike via email .He stated that this is his practice to charge for ice and it was his understanding that 99% of all restaurants do the same
. I and my wife visit various restaurants in the shore on a regular basis and to our knowledge we are never charged extra for ice.
He goes on to explain in his email that those that order drinks on the rocks get extra liquor. !!If that is the case why allegedly charge extra for the ice ,charge for the extra Booze . I find this to be a deceptive practice.
I also find this nickel and dime policy confusing arbitrary and capricious.
Please explain to me if you find this to be the general practice in restaurants in New Jersey? If so where and why ?

Since chef mike left the place it has gone to hell .I just read resent reviews for the last 2 months and service and food gone down . .What is happening ? The only thing that has NOT gone down is the prices !!

Clubhouse Insider Boston Red Sox News
Injury updates on Victorino and Ross
Another day, another potential injury.
Red Sox outfielder Shane Victorino, whose kamikaze style in right field has already made him a fan favorite, was taken to Mass. General after today's 12-4 loss to the Blue Jays with sore ribs following a hard collision with the right field fence.
Victorino was attempting to make a spectacular leaping catch of Emilio Bonifacio's home run into the bullpen in the fourth inning when he ran out of real estate, and slammed into the wall as he raised his arm to attempt the catch.
The force of the collision knocked Victorino's glove into the visiting bullpen and left him crumpled in a heap on the warning track. Though he remained in the game briefly, he was replaced to start the seventh.
"The way Shane hit the wall, he started to stiffen up as the game went on," manager John Farrell said. "And given what he's been dealing with, lower back-wise, we weren't going to take any chances further today."
Victorino barely avoided the disabled list after injuring his back against the A's on April 24. He ended up missing eight games before returning to hit .343 in the 10 games since.
There was no immediate word on his condition tonight, though Farrell sounded hopeful after the game.
"Everything points to him being ready for Tuesday," Farrell said.
As for Ross, he confirmed that he was injured by foul balls off the mask by Colby Rasmus and Bonifacio in the ninth inning on Sunday. "Those were scorchers," Ross said. "I saw the video and I grabbed my head after the second one, which I don't even remember doing."
Ross was placed on the seven-day concussion disabled list and replaced by Ryan Lavarnway.

I've been known to enjoy German Pinot Noir from time to time. Today is such a time. This one is a prototypical, clean German Pinot - tart red fruit, underripe raspberry, and clove without much in terms of earth or game. Soft mouthfeel, but clean and crisp. Tart red fruit carries through the wine, although the alcohol seemed a little out of balance at the finish.

Dealing with a fussy eater?
Started by Babby and Roo , Feb 25 2013 07:28 PM
18 replies to this topic
Posted 25 February 2013 - 07:28 PM
My daughter is 2 years and 8 months and has progressively become more and more fussy. She used to be great and eat anything, now her main diet consists of peanut butter on sandwiches or rice cakes. She obviously will eat other foods but barely any fruit (only blueberries, apple, pear, grapes occasionally)or vegetables (only carrot, peas, corn on the cob, snow peas, beans, sweet potato, potato). It's all very hit and miss though, many days she will go without eating any fresh fruit or veg at all.
I need help! I feel like I have somehow become backed into a corner of extremely limited foods - she refuses to try almost anything unfamiliar (this includes desserts like ice cream or custard!). It's so frustating. I eat a very healthy diet with lots of fruit & veg, whole grains, legumes, plus some eggs & dairy (we are vegetarian). All the meals I cook have lots of veggies and usually beans, lentils or tofu in them but she so often turns her nose up at them I am starting to feel like 'what's the point'.
So far I have avoided the vegetable "hiding" and just offer them steamed or chopped and cooked in a dish (eg, soup, pasta, stir fry), but maybe I should start blending them and hiding them in other things? Or do I go the tough-love route and just not offer anything other than the veggies until she eats them (or goes to bed hungry?). Her behaviour gets so horrible when she hasn't eaten that I usually cave and just let her eat something else.
How do others deal with fussy children?
Posted 25 February 2013 - 07:43 PM
Many EB'ers would call me a hard a*se so this might be not what you want to hear, especially if you have a tendency to "cave". As long as you are reasonably sure the child is not sick or has ASD or other health/cognitive issues that might make eating difficult, then I'd just take the food away and put up with the tantrums until the child starts eating again. No other snacks, no alternative provided, no pretty-ing up the food to entice the child, no hiding of veggies, etc...... If the child is hungry enough and learns that you're not a pushover, then they'll start eating. Everyone is allowed a couple of things that they don't like, but beyond that is just manipulation by your DD, OP.

We're hard a*se in our family too. All my kids have gone through this phase but I've just ignored it. I just remove the plate - no arguing, shouting, demanding food be eaten etc and then I say 'No problem - but there's nothing else'.
They learn very quickly.

She obviously will eat other foods but barely any fruit (only blueberries, apple, pear, grapes occasionally)or vegetables (only carrot, peas, corn on the cob, snow peas, beans, sweet potato, potato).
That's a far more varied vegetable intake than either of my children at that age.
Posted 25 February 2013 - 07:59 PM
Do you eat together OP?
This is purely anecdata - but of all the fussy eaters I know they are all fed separately to the family meal.
IE: children are fed, put to bed then the adults eat.
The non fussies are just plonked in with the rest of the family and everyone just eats - there is no hovering, no "just one mouthful please".
Eating is viewed as a normal, pleasurable, part of the day.
I know it is a pain to eat early, but maybe it is less of a pain that catering to an overly picky food drama queen?
Posted 25 February 2013 - 08:00 PM
With a child who refuses any meat, fruit or veggie I think you are doing well.
Food is offered it is their choice to eat or not. Small portion of meal will be a preferred item.
Eg fajitas. Chicken, salad, tortillas. Child decides to eat tortillas only fine, but they are not allowed to gorge themselves on them.
Posted 25 February 2013 - 08:07 PM
I second the idea (if you're not already eating together) to try this. I did with my 2.5 year old son!
We set the table for my husband and I opposite each other and he sat in his high chair on the end. We had dinner and he had an empty plate and watched us eat. It wasn't long before he would request some of what we were having! It was a trick that opened him up to trying a lot of new things. I would say that before that, he was about the same as your daughter. Ate the things he was familiar with happily, but had a kind of resistance to anything new that irked us.
Good luck!
Posted 25 February 2013 - 08:20 PM
I had one child who would only eat mashed potato for dinner, We had it a few times a week but he still had to have a bite or a taste of everything else on his plate
Sometimes he realised he did like something and would finish the meal.
Other times he did not eat anymore of what he had to taste so he would get a sandwich.
I hate food arguments - as long as they try what I have prepared that is all that matters.
I never made a fuss or turned it into a long drawn out affair.
Posted 25 February 2013 - 08:23 PM
It might help to remember that they have an instinct to eat the familiar food and knock back anything (a) new, (b) strongly flavoured and © that you aren't eating. It's to stop little baby animals from getting poisoned or wasting energy eating something not worthwhile. It's not necessarily a mission to reject our cooking.
Same reason people get morning sickness while pregnant and just want to eat bland carby food.
I sometimes do compromise veggie hiding for my 16mo, by puréeing say half the pasta sauce and leaving the other half chunky veggies. Or we might do carrot and zucchini muffins with some blended right in, and some still visable. That way if he picks out the obvious bits he still gets some goodness, but he still gets the message that we eat veggies.
Posted 25 February 2013 - 08:48 PM
Our twins are 20 months old. DD is an eating machine - tries everything, eats everything, then asks for seconds. DS is fussy and gets more so everyday. He often only eats things prepared one way or one brand of something. Both have been exposed to a wide variety of foods, we eat as a family and I've never made a fuss over food. So, I really think that it is often not what the parent's do, just the way some kids are.
For DS I make sure that at least one thing on the plate is a favourite of his. I also hide vegetables and offer this several times a day. Many of his favourites have vegetables hidden in them.
E.g. Toasted cheese sandwich with vegetable puree. Spinach and ricotta pastry. Rainbow pikelets (orange - pumpkin, carrot, sweet potato; purple - beetroot etc). Our butcher sells sausages with 5 vegetables hidden in them.
I also offer snack plates at morning tea and afternoon tea and leave these out on the coffee table for 30-40 minutes while they are playing. DS comes back to the snack plate again and again and eats far more than he would in the highchair.
I also got some tips from this article which I thought were pretty good. See if there is something here for you. http://www.askdrsears.com/topics/feeding-i...ing-picky-eater
Good Luck
Posted 25 February 2013 - 08:53 PM
Thank you for your replies so far.
We do eat together, I also think this is important and modelling plays a large role in teaching children to eat - although often my husband is not home from work yet so it is usually just me, DD and the baby.
I generally do just cook one meal for us all and try to make it child-friendly and including the veggies that I know she will sometimes eat, but she still often refuses it!
Melbchick I really like your idea of sitting her there with an empty plate if she refuses what I've cooked and then waiting for her to ask for some of ours! I can really see that working.... very manipulative! I like it.
Librablonde - you are on the money she is totally manipulating me - she knows I am a softy and give in. This is starting to become apparent in other aspects of her behaviour too and I know I need to nip it in the bud now before she gets older and cleverer!
galba - I like your simple, no fuss approach. Maybe I should just try it for a week and see what happens. Worst that can happen is some tantrums and possible night waking because she is hungry - but if that means in the long term she learns I mean business then maybe it is worthwhile.
twinboys - I agree, I don't expect her to like and finish everything on her plate but I at least want her to try everything - can't stand the "I don't like it" when she hasn't even tried the damn food! She refused to try mango, apricot, peach this summer... I bet she would have loved them if only she would've tried it!
meggs1 - I think that is a good idea, hide some but keep most obvious. At least then I will know she isn't becoming completely malnourished. Because she is vegetarian I do worry about her vitamin and mineral intake when she eats such a limited range of veggies and fruit. I have thought about introducing meat to her diet but most likely she would refuse because it is unfamilar. I fear that I have created this problem
Posted 25 February 2013 - 09:07 PM
twolittleducks - thank you for your input. I do think part of it is the child's personality! The Dr. Sears website has some good tips, thanks for posting. Can you tell me how you make the rainbow pikelets? I think that might go down well with her...

Biggest pile of sh*te I have ever read.
Some kids are just stubborn little buggers and no amount of starving or manipulation will get them to change.
OP, I think you child has a pretty good variety of food. I would kill for my kid to eat one vegetable.
Posted 25 February 2013 - 10:59 PM
Rainbow pikelets - Puree vegetables of required colour, add flour, egg, milk to get the right consistency. Cook in pan. I often pop them in the oven to dry them out a bit if they are too moist. I tend to put pear or sweet potato in every batch to make them a little sweeter. So far I've only made green, purple, pale yellow and orange ones. This covers quite a lot of veg.
ETA - I sometimes put silken tofu in the mix too and if making purple ones, beetroot is such a dominant colour, you can add quite a few other vegetables in too. I was also just contemplating today whether to try some quinoa in them also. DS's only protein is sausages, so I try to mix it up a bit.
If these get rejected anytime soon, I plan to buy the Veggie Smugglers book.
Good Luck.

Thanks twolittleducks - that sounds awesome!!
And chocolate addict - I appreciate your point of view - makes me feel better about the whole thing and not like I am a failure as a parent because of what my child will and won't eat! I hope your little one broadens their palate soon for you
We've had a couple of decent nights actually this week. I made a vegetarian version of a shepherd's pie, with kidney beans and lentils mixed with tinned tomatoes, grated zucchini and carrot, and peas as the filling, and obviously mashed potato on top (and some grated cheese). She was great and ate lots of kidney beans, some carrots, peas and the cheesy potato. She also consumed the tomato and zucchini unknowingly. So I am feeling a bit more positive about it
Posted 01 March 2013 - 10:03 AM
I'm with Librablonde on this one. The "eat it or go hungry "
approach has worked in our house (and I have a very stubborn daughter - it just took a bit longer in her case, but it did work). No bribing, no fighting - food is provided, kids choose whether to eat or not, no other food is offered until next meal (except for fruit, which in our house is left on the bench for everyone to take whenever they please).
You may find, OP, that if you let your children become involved in the meal preparation they may develop more interest in food. Mine would often sit up at the bench snacking on the raw veges I was peeling and chopping - if they then refused the cooked end result I wasn't overly worried. Restricting other snack foods in the afternoon helps too, so that they are hungry when dinner is ready.
I have seen fussy eaters who are still fussy in their teens - that's a lot of extra work for parents, and good reason to sort it out early IMO.
Posted 01 March 2013 - 02:01 PM
but barely any fruit (only blueberries, apple, pear, grapes occasionally)or vegetables (only carrot, peas, corn on the cob, snow peas, beans, sweet potato, potato)
If my toddler would eat even 3 of those foods, I could die happy right now.
Posted 01 March 2013 - 02:14 PM
I went through a stage of hiding vegetables - I know it's not recommended by nutritionists but honestly you can't do everything.
Now that DS is slightly older and understands the concept of compromise and consequences, I have a slightly different tactic. I chop up the veges into manageable sizes but still big enough for DS to see and feel the texture. I put the vegetable on the spoon and tell him, "This is a broccoli, would you like to try it?" Of course DS says no and violently shakes his head. I don't make a fuss, I just put the broccoli back and say, "Okay well you can either eat the vegetables with your meal, or don't eat."
DS is guaranteed to get annoyed and protest, so I put other bits of food he likes (like fish) on the spoon with the broccoli, and as an act of "compromise" I ask him to eat the two together. Virtually every time he says yes and he ends up happily eating the veges for the rest of the meal. I like to emphasise the name of the vegetable he's eating and show him what it looks like so in the future he knows he's eaten it before and didn't mind.
The best way I dealt with my fussy eater, like others said, is to not fight over it but just let them go hungry. It might take awhile but they get the point - if I don't eat now, I won't eat till the next meal. It seems harsh but I think it's a much healthier option than allowing a child to dictate his preferences to a narrow range of food.

Great highlighter. Looks great on cheekbones and under brows. I actually love to use it in the corners of my eyes. It makes them bright and beautiful!
oh...my...gosh. I have had a lil sample one of this in my realness of concealness (sucker for cute packaging but barely ever used any of it) and I happened on reviews of this today so I popped it out when I was putting on my makeups and holy....wow. I look like an angel. I thought it might be a ripoff of touche eclat or something (I should review that too) but it's nothing the same, it is less subtle ...in the sense that the only way you can tell touche eclat is truly working is that suddenly everyone is telling you how amazing and refreshed you look (father in law: wow, you look so well rested. no, no, it's the touche eclat, I have a toddler that still doesnt sleep, I havent slept in three years but anyways) but I put on the C of eyebrow to cheekbone of highbeam and suddenly the heavens split open and the light fell on me and suddenly I am a glowing, gorgeous angel. oh my god. I am going to buy the full size TOMORROW. I dont think I can survive the rest of my life without this. What's incredible is there is NO glitter, I dont do glitter, husband has a phobia for first thing, and I am old, I dont need glitter. this just like I said lights up my whole face, it's like I am gleaming, I am SO amazed, I have never felt so shocked by a make up in my life.

This always breaks me out. I got a sample a while back from Sephora and loved it. Gives you a pretty pinkish glow, but every time I wore it I found myself with two or three little tiny bumps on my cheeks. I tried it only under the brows and got the same bumpy results. I would not risk it buying the full bottle.

I love High Beam. Its a pink/silver metallic sheen. I sometimes mix it into my liquid foundation, highest part of cheekbones, brow highlight. I also mix this into my lotion for a nice glow. The cap tends to break off, so be careful.
This highlighter is beautiful! It gives a natural glow to the cheekbones. I use it regularly and it has lasted for ages. I also mix this into my foundation when I want a bit of a glow. My one complaint is the packaging - I wish it came in a tube. Now that I am getting to the end of the bottle, I am finding it quite hard to get the product out.
This product is beautiful! It is a liquid/cream highlighter with a very fine and subtle shimmer that gives a natural glow to the cheekbones. A little goes a long way so it is worth spending the money. You can mix a little into your foundation if you want a glowier look to your complexion or you can just use it on the higher planes of your face (cheekbones, brow bones) to accentuate. The consistency is very easy to blend and looks very natural.

I can't believe I declined to even think about giving this product a try in the past. I hate the fake shimmery, glitter look some girls have. I find it so damn tacky and because of that I didn't give this a try until 2 days ago. Wow though!!!!! This is sooooo natural looking, you can't tell you applied anything artificial it just looks like you have healthy, glowing skin. Tip: Don't apply too much and don't blend back and forth, blend it by lightly tapping it in with your fingers.
I absolutely love this!
Edit: I forgot to mention this lasts ALLLLLLLLL day!
Edit#2: wanted to use this for a while before I made my verdit on whether or not it would break me out. It hasn't broken me out AT ALL and I've used it daily. (I have hyper sensitive, acne prone skin)
6 out of 7 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is a great product! I just bought this a couple of weeks ago, and every time I've worn it, I have received compliments from my male friends about how beautiful, happy, or glowing I look. They couldn't pinpoint what it was, but it was the High Beam, because they normally wouldn't comment on something like that. The only thing is that I wish the brush was different. Instead of similar to a nail polish brush I would rather have it like a lip gloss brush. Other than that, this is the perfect highlighter. I also have the Smashbox Highlighter Quad, which is great, but not as good as this one. Will buy again when it runs out.

BEAUTIFUL! I love love love this stuff. i mix a little in my under eye concealer too. So natural and dewy, and a little goes a long way. Yeah it's $24 but this will last soo long and I will re-purchase forever. This is the perfect highlighter I was looking for.
I overall liked this product - gives you a dewy natural look! although i prefer using powders generally i would recommend it. I also love the pot and wond, looks like nail varnish. very cute!

Sherlock: Martin Freeman's delight at Emmy haul. [X]
I've transcribed only a couple of questions
Interviewer: How did you hear that in fact you had won the Emmy?
Martin: I got a text from my American agent and she said You've just won. I was Ah, very very nice. And then I went to sleep, and then woke up to find that Ben had won and Steven Moffat had won. And Fargo has also done really well, you know both shows I was in that had been nominated did really well so I was very pleased about that.
Interviewer: Sherlock of course, back next year. Filming starts in January. I suppose all we know at this stage is that it will definitely be full of surprises, do you know much more than that?
Martin: Yeah. Well we know a bit more than that but obviously nothing I would say or could explain as eloquently as Steven Moffat or Mark Gatiss could. Yeah but it's going to be full of surprises for you and for us and for everybody, I think that's what they are really good at and I think that we just know to expect the unexpected now but within the parameters of a world we all sort of know and love quite well and we know this characters pretty well and we know the world that they inhabit and what's been explained to me and Ben and to Amanda Abbington my miss who plays Mary has been very very exciting. The plans that they've got for the sort of the overarching series is… Oh! Man… it's just.. it's just so exciting!

You missed out on another dollar.
Can I ask you why do you say they are way more leveraged than other MReits? Can you read a 10Q? If so please go ahead and review a few mreits and I think you will find yourself editing your post. What I am saying is your post is Wrong.
That is a cop-out, a weak one at that.
I'm pretty sure you are #$%$.
Sentiment: Hold
Can you please explain where they are "slick" or "crooked"? You cannot make an accusation such as that and then not explain the hows or whys. I find you to be a disgrace. You need to be ignored by everyone now for making such claims without backing it up. To everyone else johnsonjoe is incorrect with his slander. If you read any SEC filing by ORC it is explained that in the past Bimini(shareholder in ORC) was once run by Jeff Zimmer who is now the head of ARR. Under his direction, as CEO, Bimini purchased a mortagge company called Opteum Inc. at the highs in 2005. That entity ended up have many legal issues which led Bimini to its almost demise. Mr. Zimmer was fired or let go along the way. Since then Bimini has treaded water no doubt but management has kept it afloat and now has taken ORC public. So again johnson I ask you to provide concrete evidence of the crookedness. If not back down and apologize. I own some shares but mostly I dislike big mouth wanna be traders running their yaps as if they have some great inside intel when in fact they do not.
Sentiment: Buy

How many more years will LeBron James stay with the Heat? Not two, not three, not four … It might just be five. And a big part of the reason why was Miami's acquisition of point guard Shabazz Napier in Thursday night's draft, a move that James openly praised on Twitter just moments after the deal with Charlotte went down. If ever there was a case in which you needed to read between the lines, this was it. And how is this for
Knicks, Mavs upgrade rosters in Chandler-Calderon trade
The New York Knicks acquired a major upgrade at point guard at the expense of their starting center in a six-player trade with the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday. The trade sends Jose Calderon to New York along with center Samuel Dalembert, wing Wayne Ellington, point guard Shane Larkin and the 34th and 51st picks in Thursday's NBA Draft in exchange for center Tyson Chandler and point guard Raymond Felton.
Tweet of the Day: NBA Athletes Already On The Grind
Some prominent NBA athletes are still recuperating from injuries, taking necessary time off to recover, heal and rest from weariness and prolonged seasons that may have gone deep in the playoffs. Some, like Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash, among others, are in Brazil enjoying the 2014 FIFA World Cup. There are plenty, like LeBron James, who are on vacation, spending time with their families. Still, there are those who are already hard at work, trying to improve for the 2014-15 NBA season.
PODCAST: What Will 'Melo Do? LeBron's Decision Will Impact Everything
The folks in Houston are hoping they have a good shot to land Carmelo Anthony in free agency. Or LeBron James, for that matter, should he somehow find Houston more appealing than remaining in Miami or returning to Cleveland. In my opinion, 'Melo's choices rank like this: New York, Dallas, Houston/Chicago, with the latter two tied for third. Money is going to be a factor, and the fact that the Knicks can work off a starting salary of $23.2 million and offer
PODCAST: Michael Scotto on the Possibility of Carmelo Anthony Joining the Miami Heat
LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade entered the league as four of the top five selections in the 2003 NBA Draft. Now, 11 years later, they all could join forces in South Beach. With rumors swirling about a possible alliance in Miami, Phil Jackson and Derek Fisher will reportedly meet with Anthony this weekend to discuss the player option on his contract and how he can be a fit in the triangle offense with the Knicks going forward. Can Jackson
Sheridan: Fisher held hostage by 'Melo on first day as Knicks coach
GREENBURGH, N.Y. — The best way for me to tell you about Derek Fisher's first day on the job is to relate two conversations I had with him Tuesday at his introductory news conference as coach of the New York Knicks. One answer illustrated just how much the Knicks are a franchise being held hostage by a single player. The second illustrated just how there isn't much of value on this roster aside from Anthony. I have been to more introductory news conferences
Three-Man Weave: Fishing, Flopping and Sterling
In this edition of the Three-Man Weave, the New York Knicks go fishing for a new coach, the NBA Finals get their first taste of flopping, and the league cannot seem to rid itself of Donald Sterling. Let's get to the Q and A, shall we? 1. Derek Fisher is the new coach of the Knicks. Good hire or bad hire?
Tweet of the Day: Reaction To Derek Fisher's Hiring
Very few things in the NBA could diminish the media frenzy surrounding LeBron James' thrilling 35-point Game 2 performance in the NBA Finals. The news coming from New York is one such thing. 18 years of lacing up sneakers, playing in 1,287 games, 259 playoff games—including an NBA leading 161 playoff wins, Derek Fisher seems to be moving into the next phase of his career. He is expected to be officially announced as the New York Knicks new head coach Tuesday

On a day when temporary restraining orders against two Loweâs employees were made public, one of the Riverside men accusing the workers of making anti-gay slurs and threats of physical violence defended his own legal issues.
A judge set a July 10 hearing date in Superior Court in Riverside to consider permanent restraining orders against Andy Olague, 33, and Frank Villa, 30, who work at the Loweâs at 9851 Magnolia Ave. in Riverside.
Jeremy Smythe, 29, said Olague became angry at him without cause when he tried to return a leaf blower without a receipt. Smythe said Olague had to be restrained and that Olague then said âI know where you live. Iâve got your address in the computer. Iâm going to be at your house. Iâm going to get you.â
Smytheâs domestic partner, Daniel Soto, 35, who had been elsewhere in the store, arrived during the incident. Villa joined in at some point, Smythe said.
The approval of the temporary restraining orders, Smythe said, âshows (the judge) obviously felt it was a threat.â
Loweâs did not respond to a request for comment on the court orders.
For Smythe, and to an apparently lesser extent Soto, this is only their latest foray into court.
Smythe has criminal convictions in Riverside, San Bernardino, Orange and Los Angeles counties, and he has been the defendant in at least a dozen civil cases since 2000.
Smythe said most of his legal troubles happened several years ago. âEveryone changes,â he said. âFor people to jump on things in the past, there are sides to every story.â
On Monday, June 18, Smythe and Soto were sued by Electra Cruises, which said the men have not paid $10,775 for the use of a yacht, food and staff time from a Feb. 7 wedding cruise and reception off Newport Beach.
An itemized bill lists $3,168 for the yacht, $2,646 for pork loin with bourbon sauce for dinner for 102 people, $295 for a wedding cake and $200 for a minister, among other expenses.
Smythe said Tuesday, June 26, that they donât owe that money. âI have the receipts,â he said.
Also, Smythe and Soto are due in court July 10 â" the same date as the restraining-orders hearing â" to answer to a lawsuit demanding $10,000 in back rent, court records show.
In April 2002, Smythe pleaded guilty to âDisorderly, obnoxious, indecent or commit any act of nuisance on the airportâ in Orange County, according to court records that did not describe the incident.
