Rated 4 out of 5 by Lisa B Fast, professional service. I ordered carry out and the cheese on my meatball sandwich stuck all over the paper wrapping. But the sandwich itself was hearty and well-stuffed. Aug 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cathleen C Food was amazing as usual, and our waitress is a sweet girl that is always helpful and accommodating. Jul 31, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Ken S Really good-tasting food. I visit regularly when I'm in the area. Server consistently seems hard to get the attention of. No napkins at the table. Jul 11, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Lori N One of our favorite "go to" places. The tortellini with blush is almost always good and the pizza ordered was just what I wanted! Jun 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lisa B Ordered carry out - It was fast and food was fresh! May 30, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Carin V Took the pizza to go, but staff was pleasant. May 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sheryl W I love the pizza and salad bar, and the iced tea is amazing! I also like how you order at the counter (so there's not as much waiting as there is at other restaurants) but there's a server who comes around to see if you need anything. May 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sheryl W The food is great, and everyone working there is very friendly. May 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sheryl W Excellent food, great service and nice atmosphere May 11, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by rebecca l we usually get carry out, but have dined in. The service is pretty good.. when its busy, sometimes you have to remind them for your refill or extra ranch, but i was a young waitress once, so i understand. The all meat calzone is our favorite with the alfredo dip, the anti-pasto salad is my fave. So far the sandwiches & pasta that we have tried have been really good too. They have a game room and prizes, so its makes a good place for a bday party. Overall its 1 of lompocs better places to dine for a variety of dinner & lunchs, and its tasty! We make it in probably 5 - 7 times a year. But this is the place we go if we are in the mood for pizza... well we dont get pizza, we get the calzone.. so should you! its delish! And if you have kids/toddlers they can get away with them being a lil bit wild at dinner! Prices are fair for the competition and quality of food. May 6, 2014

Michael Jordan flies down the lane to jam home Pippen's missed free throw, in this takeoff on the NBA's Where Will Amazing Happen This Year? commercials. This is not a true re-creation moment, as the play really happened against the Blazers during the 92-93 regular season. I wasn't sure if I would even be able to put this together so I saved some time by using my already created Lakers instead. I plan on making one of my regular style videos out of this play next, with before/after shots, because it looks fantastic at full speed. It'll have to wait though because I suffered my very first red ring of death today, hopefully I'll get it back before 2K10 hits, ha.

Gagosian is a regular presence in the New York social pages, and is often snapped in pictures alongside his friend and client, SAC Capital chief Steve Cohen.
In fact the pair were spotted last week at Art Basel, at a Credit Suisse-hosted dinner in honor of of Swiss-American artist.
Gagosian is still overseas, luckily.
On Tuesday night a massive fire triggered by someone soldering (doing repair work) in the kitchen, which required 50 firefighters at the scene, "ripped through [his] Hamptons mansion... threatening countless priceless artworks," according to the New York Post.
A miracle!
One firefighter told the Post that they'd managed to save a TV, too: "It was the biggest one I've ever seen."
Gagosian's home is on Further Lane -- a stretch famed for its mansions and high-net worth residents.
Apparently because Gagosian's home has "a long, winding driveway... it [was] a little harder to navigate with the fire apparatus. A gate at the front of the property slowed first responders down because they needed a gate code," Patch East Hampton reported.
Gagosian's personal art collection is reported to be worth $1 billion.

Reviews by ChainGangGuy:
2.5/5 rDev +33%
Appearance: Pours a remarkably clear, light golden body with a thin, wispy white head.
Smell: A handful of corn kernels, a pinch of sulphur, and light cereal notes make up this aroma.
Taste: It's corny, but less corny than the aroma would have you believe. Lightly sweet cereal flavor. Not much hopwise to speak of. There's a light sourness to the finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Mild carbonation.
Drinkability: I feel like I deserve a prize of some sort each time I finish a Northwoods beer.

If you want to try these beers, please do go to the brewpub, but don't take their packaged beers home. This is another bottle that somehow got contaminated: I got a musty smell of wet salted peanut shells when I opened it, and it permeated the taste. Color was very pale, yet murky at the same time. Very stale taste. Either their bottling operation has problems, or they're storing their packaged beers way too long.

Pale straw gold color, small white head. Scent is of a belgian wit, light wheat. Taste is similar to a glass of water with some beer reside left on the inside of the glass. Light wheat aspects. Im wondering if this is a bunk batch they brewed or if its supposed to be like this. Wont ever find out cause this will be the last one i buy.

1.9/5 rDev +1.1%
Poured this 12 oz. bottle to a pint glass.
A: Hazy light gold color. Just a little lazy carbonation rising to a thin, short-lived white head. Has a 'watery' look, like the golden-ness of the beer has actually been separated out and is suspended. Worst of all there are (uh oh) flecks of brown at the bottom the glass, either spent barley husks or cardboard; either way, they shouldn't be there.
S: Smells like Karo corn syrup - which I love on pancakes but not in my beer. Slight sourness, nothing else.
T: Sharp tang at first, then a watered-down grainy corn flavor. Sour and a little bitter, even those flavors are pretty bland.
M: Mothfeel is light and a little thin ut is moderately crisp and refreshing. Carbonation is weak and dry/bitter finish reminds of mouthful of mineral water. Could be worse, definitely could be better.
D: I'd read the previous negative reviews and thought I'd give it go nonetheless. Alas, it lived up the 'hype' as a pretty awful beer...really nothing about this redeeming enough to ever drink again. However, thanks to mnwags for sending this (I asked for it) to me for a try. Sadly, not recommended in any way.

Another highly carbonated brew from Northwoods. This beer is very pale and hazy. Soapy aroma. Big frothy head. Looks, smells and tastes exactly the same as their Bumb'n Buzz'n Brew. This one seems to have a little bit of a musty taste also. I'm not sure if I can throw back two of these brews in one night. Poor beer.
04-03-2002 21:40:34 | More by Bighuge
2.3/5 rDev +22.3%
Pours out light gold and sits a hazy golden amber in the glass with a fair white head that recedes quite quickly to the sides.
Aroma is quite vegetal. Cabbage and corn are abundant. Some toatsy, biscuit malt type aromas with little to no hop interference.
Tastes faintly malty, fine traces of biscuit and grain husks. Lemony flavor and sourness begins to appear, but dissapates quickly. Hop bitterness lends a light, bitter finish with graininess lingering on.
Light bodied with soft carbonation, moderately smooth in the mouth. Definately not a beer that speaks well for itself. Plain, simple and uninspiring.
12-06-2004 23:13:45 | More by Skidz
1.13/5 rDev -39.9%
Lightly hazed, pearish, pale appearance, slim fizziness above, wastes away instantly.
Slick, sick, fades aroma...something's off in the bottling line here, as this is the fourth beer yet from this company that a plastic-y smell, no real hops, no actual malt, just really wrong.
Taste: actually quite horrible. A mess. Flat, cardboardy, unattractive...well, an accident...or, so I hope.
The whole thing feels infected. This should never have left the plant.

RDCK wants to keep recycling depot open at Nelson transfer station
The recycling depot at the Nelson transfer station could remain open for the immediate future.
Uli Wolf, the Regional District of Central Kootenay's general manager of environmental services, told 103.5 The Bridge they are hoping to preserve some recycling services at the present site once the transfer station is moved to a new location west of the city.
The move comes as Multi Material BC refuses to allow the RDCK to become part of an industry stewardship program legislated by the provincial government for the time being. As a result, the RDCK has agreed to continue providing recycling services for at least a year.
Wolf said the RDCK has little choice but to continue its current programs.
"Our current depot is at the current Nelson transfer station so we are working with the city to come to an agreement to continue, temporarily, the depot in that location," said Wolf.
But that deal would only include the recycling depot.
"We will vacate the rest of the property. There is some consideration given to have a portion of it for alternative use, but that is in the early stage of investigation."
The move should be completed by summer.
"We are, as well, looking at some of the issues surrounding the contamination of the neighbouring site and this site but in general we will get our equipment off that site by late summer and have all our equipment moved to the new transfer station which we hope to have operational in July," Wolf said.
What has yet to be determined is if the new transfer station will also have a recycling depot on site. "We are limited for space but it is under discussion to have a smaller one for the immediate rural area," explained Wolf.
The current transfer station is located on CPR lands and discussions are ongoing about remediating the site. While there are still hurdles to clear, Wolf said a recycling depot is a priority.
"Both the City of Nelson and the RDCK have a real interest to continue to have a depot close to, or within, city limits. I'm sure we will come up with a solution."
Running the programs will be costly, but the plan is to invoice MMBC.
"The hopes that they outright pay that invoice are little," Wolf said, "but I think it exemplifies to the general public and this organization that we continue to have a cost for something they really carry the obligation for."
Wolf said they will bill for the full cost to the RDCK, which last year was a little over $1 million.

Bank Health Concerns, Low Interest Rates, and Money Demand: Evidence from the Public Opinion Survey on Household Financial Assets and Liabilities
AbstractThis paper uses household survey data that cover the period from 2001 through 2003 to study the cash and deposits demand of households. These data enable us to obtain empirical findings that could not previously be derived through analyses using conventional macroeconomic time-series data. First, for asset demand, we find that the fluctuations in the extensive margin (the decisions on whether or not to hold a financial product) are sometimes more important than the fluctuations in the intensive margin (the decisions on the amounts of the financial product held). Second, we conduct detailed analyses on the causes of fluctuations in the cash demand of individual households. Third, thanks to qualitative questions in our dataset, we manage to distinguish between the fluctuations in asset demand due to low interest rates and those in response to various measures that are aimed at enhancing the safety of household savings. Fourth, we quantify the economic effects of personal financial education.

Drew Cline: A Libertarian plays devil's advocate in U.S. Senate race
A few years ago, Goldsmith, who had a reputation among his friends for coming up with great Halloween costumes, was invited to a Halloween party in Pinardville. He did not have time to do an elaborate costume, so he threw one together: red makeup, a cape, pretty easy. He went as Satan. Then he and a friend wound up at the wrong party.
A friend took a photo of him in that costume, and he has used it as his Facebook profile pic and Twitter avatar for a long time. Last week Goldsmith, not in costume, crashed another party. He filed to run for U.S. Senate as the Libertarian candidate.
"My goal is to spread the word. It's to educate people about long-lost principles that are not being espoused in the Democratic and Republican Party establishments."
"They hate the Libertarians because they fear we'll take their votes," he said.
That leaves independents, Libertarians and Democrats. If Democrats wanted to throw a monkey wrench into the election, they could easily organize enough signatures to get Goldsmith on the ballot, which could help Jeanne Shaheen in what is expected to be a Republican year. And that would be a great New Hampshire political irony. Goldsmith cut his teeth in New Hampshire politics by antagonizing Shaheen.
If Goldsmith did get on the ballot, he might get into the candidate debates.
"The Democrats would be wise to get me on the ballot, but ironically, if I get into one of those debates I'm going to tear Jeanne Shaheen to shreds, metaphorically," he said.

Top 10 motorcycles of all time
History's greatest two-wheeled wonders
Photo: Vincent
Choosing the top 10 bikes of all time is a little bit like picking the top 10 movies all time; no matter how judicious your choices, someone is going to disagree. Pick the Honda CB750 as the most significant Japanese bike and some Kawasaki fanatic will take you to task for rating it over the Z1. Choose the Triumph Bonneville as the seminal British twin and the Norton aficionados will be up in arms. Rally around pre-war bikes and you're an old fart; pick a bunch of modern motorcycles and you're a shallow dilettante. There really is no way to win. So, knowing I am sure to lose or at least to be corrected, here is my top 10 list of motorcycles of all time.

I don't think she's that bad looking, I mean she's busy, do you think she'd want to be putting on tons of makeup and doing her hair for hours when she's busy? Either way, we just aren't used to seeing her without her signiture Jlo glow.

mar 7 years
I have seen her in person here in Miami, and she is slightly above average looking Latina ( I think in general Latina's are pretty). She had the same hairstyle and barely any make up, and it was just like these pics. I do, however, think she absolutly cleans up better then any other star. When her hair , makeup and clothing are good ( which is 80% of the time)she takes the cake. To be honest, if you know how to put yourself together, you do not have to be drop dead gorgeous.

The Pleasant Street Theatre in Northampton, Massachusetts closed in December 2007 (read the Journal article), but moviegoers in the area can rejoice in the fact that the theater is re-opening on January 25, 2008 under the management of Amherst Cinema Arts Center in Amherst. The non-profit group operates the Amherst Cinema Arts Center.
The Republican published an article about the change in operator:
A mere month after the previous owner cried "Cut!" there will be lights, camera and action once again at the Pleasant Street Theater.
"There Will Be Blood," a film starring Daniel Day Lewis, will open Jan. 25, along with the French film "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly." The theater's resurrection under the oversight of the Amherst Cinema Arts Center was made possible by a whirlwind fund drive initiated by private citizens that raised $91,616 in less than two months.

Alttext Flag – A discussion

Terms and Conditions update
Although nobody in the European Union seems to be taking it too seriously, the law has recently changed regarding the use of cookies and other privacy issues. Nobody is quite sure how to abide by the law without destroying their businesses and my colleagues Brian Clifton and Vicky Brock are having great fun trying to make sense of it all. Vicky even invoked the freedom of information act to… Continue reading

Majestic Million – Reloaded!
When we launched the Majestic Million on a public beta, we had a simple mission – to determine if referring domain count was a viable measure of a websites popularity. Whilst there were one or two anomalies, at the start the data appeared to provide an illustration of how referring domains may be representative of a domains popularity.

The Minnesota Pheasants Forever State Convention was held at the Prairies Edge Casino Resort Friday and Saturday, Jan. 17 and 18. The Stearns County Chapter received multiple awards for its dedication to habitat and youth education projects.
Chapters from across the state were honored for reaching various historic habitat expenditures. The Stearns County Chapter of Pheasants Forever (SCPF) was honored for spending more than $4 million on wildlife habitat and conservation education projects. Stearns County is only the second chapter in the nation to earn this great honor.
Since the chapter's inception in 1982, SCPF has donated more than $45,000 to Pheasants Forever Legislative Action Fund to support efforts to improve strong conservation programs within the next Federal Farm Bill. They were also pioneers in creating the Pheasants Forever Farm Bill Wildlife Biologist position. This biologist's role is to assist landowners in designing, developing, and funding habitat improvements on private lands.
Watkins Senior Citizens will be having their Valentine's Day Party at the St. Anthony Manor Thursday, Feb. 13, with social time at 11 a.m. They are serving a pork loin dinner at 11:30 a.m. Cost for the dinner is $5 for members, and $6 for non-members. We will be crowning a king and queen at that time.
Please sign up before Feb. 7, so we know how many to prepare for. Sign-up sheets are at St. Anthony Manor, or call Ruth at 764-6431, or Lorraine at 764-5505.
We would be interested in having new members join our club, if interested, please sign up for the Valentine's Day Party. We will collect dues for this year.
The Eden Valley-Watkins Boy Scout Troop 363 is in the process of raising funds to acquire a new camp trailer. The Troop is currently using a trailer that was re-purposed more than 40 years ago. Exact age of the current trailer is unknown, but it is apparent that it has been heavily used and is showing serious signs of age.
The Troop has been writing grants and fundraising to purchase a trailer and build the racking needed to make it camping-ready. While we do have some money in our "trailer fund," we fear that we may not have enough in order to be ready for the 2014 summer camping season without asking for help.
If you are a supporter of Boy Scouts and would like to contribute to the Boy Scout trailer project, your name/your business name can appear on the trailer showing that you helped fund it. Funds can be written out to Troop 363 and mailed to the Scoutmaster at 234 Jacquin Lane, Eden Valley MN 55329. Any support is welcome, whether it be in monetary form or as a pledge to build racking or for artwork design for signage, etc. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
The Kimball Kruisers had fun painting for their January meeting. Art As You Like It came down to the Kimball Area High School to show the 4-Hers how to paint pottery. 4-Hers could choose from a peace sign piggy-bank, a slug bug piggy-bank, or a pig piggy-bank. We chose three colors and started painting. It took almost two hours to get everyone done with their piggy-bank, but it was worthwhile.
Thanks to Art As You Like It for coming down to Kimball to teach us how to paint.
Share the Fun was also discussed. We are looking for ideas for this year's performance. Share the Fun and performing arts will be held Sunday, Feb. 23, in Litchfield.

Come June, those of us in the northern latitudes leave the hearth behind and burst into the sunlight to savor a precious few months of warmth, pressed for time before the days grow short again. This often entails going yet farther north, and in Minnesota, "up north" often means the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. We spent a long weekend in a cabin outside of Ely ("Ee-lee"), a gateway town to the BWCA.
Boreal Bliss
Photo Essay: Up North
Stock up for Woodstock
Kit: Music Festival
Ah, the music festival. Concert after concert under the hot sun, huge fields of camping fans, available yet astronomically priced food, and port-a-potties stretching to the horizon combine for a strange breed of "roughing it" with large doses of civilization mixed in. Prepare properly and you're in for the weekend of a lifetime; shirk the prep and you'll be poor and plenty grumpy come Sunday night. Here are ten pieces of gear — appropriately fitting the chaotic and not at all fashionable atmosphere you'll come to know and love — to get your music festival experience on track for "Epic!" status. We'll leave the collapsible peace pipe to you.
Hone your inner survivalist
Breakdown: Lansky Tactical Apocalypse Survival Kit
No, it's not made especially for a zombie outbreak. The Lansky T.A.S.K. (Tactical Apocalypse Survival Kit) ($200) is aimed at avoiding (or taking down) whatever your own personal apocalypse may be. We break it down.
high and dry
Blue Ridge Camping Hammock
To soothe the discomfort of a damp, rocky and generally pokey forest floor when camping, ground-bound tenters have to make sure they've come equipped, which is a drag en route. The Blue Ridge Camping Hammock ($140) combines the comforts of being high, dry and comfortably cradled during your next forest foray.
Grill Power
Tested: BioLite Portable Grill
Back-to-nature gourmands, rejoice — the BioLite Portable Grill ($60) saves you from suffering through camp dinners made of only canned soup and stick-toasted weenies, while still powering your decidedly non-forest-friendly electronic devices.
Patagonia Encapsil Down Belay Parka
When an outdoor titan like Patagonia states they've invented the highest-performing down technology available anywhere and stuffed it into "the finest down parka ever made" — you should pay attention.
Great outdoors, great coffee
Camp Caffeine: Lessons in Outdoor Brewing
Something about sitting atop an unexplored peak to watch the sunrise while enjoying your favorite coffee just feels right. Maybe it's the sub-freezing temperatures and obligatory wind chill, or it's the all night trek catching up with you. With that in mind, we've got the best tried and true methods for brewing your favorite coffee for you next adventure, be it a weekend of car camping or a full blown backcountry expedition.
Stay warm in the woods
20 and Counting Down: Best Backpacking Sleeping Bags
Nothing ruins a backpacking trip like a terrible night's sleep (or a lack of clean underwear, but if you can't figure that one out you're beyond our help). A good sleeping bag is the key to staying warm and dry when you're crashing under the stars — so you're at your best crossing that next 8,000 foot mountain pass. Sleeping bag tech has made its way into the space age in the last few years: your 20-year-old bag from summer camp or the Boy Scouts is no longer up to snuff. Here's our list of the best 20°F (or below) bags to ensure comfort and safety for three-season camping.
Tough as an actual axe
Kickstarter: Alpaca Adventure Guitar
The Alpaca Guitar more like "I'll pack a…" than the animal, but we'll assume that's what they were going for. The Kickstarter project is all about turning everyone's favorite campfire fun into a nigh unbreakable, waterproof piece of hiking gear.
Alpha Industries ✕ Ace Hotel Fishtail Parka
The M-65 waterproof fishtail parka was first used by the U.S. Army in the Korean War as a lightweight shell to keep soldiers dry. The design allowed soldiers to wrap the back of the coat around their upper legs for ease of movement and more waterproof surface. Recently the "hope I'm cool enough to stay here" Ace Hotel teamed up with Alpha Industries — known for military-inspired casual wear — to revive the storied coat. Retaining the classic M-65 style while updating it with a washed nylon shell, stay-dry seams and modern lines means you can throw this on and hike through unknown forest and muddy embankments before strolling directly into the board room, unscathed. Don't whine to us if the muddy boots give you away, though.
Serious Camp Solutions
Bush Smarts
Holding on to heritage for dear life while still being picky about efficiency, quality and practicality is taking the tough path — but produces the kind of results we dig. Bush Smarts, a New York-based builder, designer and sourcer of prime camp gear, has created a library of outdoor gear that eschews flash and gimmick…
Sittin' pretty
Best Made Camp Chair
Best Made Co.'s latest camping accessory is made in the USA from solid white oak, duck canvas and solid brass hardware, producing a vintage aesthetic that would look right at home around both your grandfather's campsite and yours. Since America's not getting any lighter, the Camp Chair ($185) is built to support 350 pounds, both in chair or stool mode.
Don't carbonize these ones
Wondermade Marshmallows
Wondermade Marshmallows ($8) shatter the conventional s'mores mold with their diverse line of flavored addiction cubes sugary treats. Boasting a perfect spongy consistency, these handcrafted marshmallows challenge the pallet with a bouquet of unique flavors like gingerbread, peppermint, s'mores (s'mores inception?), pumpkin pie, Guinness and bourbon. A smartly designed box accomplishes the sole mission of…
A different kind of pole dance
MSR SureLock TR-3 Trekking Poles
If you've ever used trekking poles with friction locks, you know they can be fickle and finicky — slippage and tedious adjustment are par for the course. MSR's SureLock TR-3 allows you to navigate frequently changing terrain with an on-the-fly two-finger length adjustment system. That means no removing the gloves or poles from your hands to unlock, adjust, and re-lock your sticks.
12 gifts for the adventure seeker
12 Guys of Christmas: The Adventurer
He shows up at Christmas dinner with new scars and less digits from his latest cage dives and winter Alpine ascents. His tales, most of them true, scare Aunt Betty to tears and enchant the kids. And while the adventurer's gifts for you usually amount to a carved tribal trinket or a rock from a…
Big bucket bag
Marmot Urban Hauler
Backpacks are ubiquitous, and sometimes too many pockets just means… too many pockets. In the case of the Marmot Urban Hauler ($50), less is more. Based on a centuries-old Japanese fishing bag, the Urban Hauler is as simple as a pack can get, short of a brown grocery bag and duct tape. Made of UpCycled…
Short Ground
Olukai Mauna Lalo
The classic hiking boot never grows old, but sometimes a bit of fashion-driven change is welcomed. After all, you sport most of your woodsy fashion flair at the coffee shop, dontcha? Less a couple inches of leather than your standard hiking boot, the Olukai Mauna Lalo ($225) hiking shoe is just the right combination of…
12 gift ideas for the active adventurer
12 Guys of Christmas: The Outdoorsman
The outdoorsman on your list is easily identifiable: he's rarely home and smells faintly of man sweat and wood smoke when you do catch him between excursions. His particular passion falls within an extensive of range possible pursuits (noodling for catfish, anyone?), but one thing is for certain — he does them outside. His look…
Tablecloth and candles not included
Snow Peak Ozen Solo Table
After a rough day of solo backpacking and exploration, nothing rejuvenates like a good meal. Unfortunately, going it alone out in the field doesn't always lend to the best of creature comforts. The Snow Peak Ozen Solo Table ($50) provides a level surface on the ground or in your tent and should at least make…
Jump starting your adventure kit
Gerber GO Bag
Whether it's for your bug-out bag or your hiking kit, the fundamental survival items — knife, flashlight, multitool, your bag itself — make up 98% of what you'll use and anchor your camp/hike/escape. The Gerber GO Bag ($274) gives you the whole kit and caboodle. Not only does it provide a laundry list of quality,…
Base camp beacon
L.L. Bean Lighthouse 30-Day Camp Lantern
Camping is one of America's great pastimes, and some die-hards do it through all four seasons. But whether it's 90 degrees and swampy or so cold the lining of your nose freezes, you'll always need some good light shed on the situation. The L.L. Bean Lighthouse 30-Day Camp Lantern ($60) won't just brighten things up…
Bright where you want it
Kelty LumaTwist Lantern
Whether you're in the great outdoors when the sun goes down or at home when the power goes out (thanks, Hurricane Sandy), proper portable lighting can make the difference between life and death — or at least help you figure out where your next meal (or bath) is coming from. Sometimes a flashlight (narrow beam)…
Cyclops with brains
Petzl NAO
The latest in automotive headlight technology is downright impressive. Adaptive headlights turn with the steering wheel, high-beams deactivate when oncoming traffic approaches and self-leveling low beams move when the road angle changes. Why can't headlamps follow suit? No more complaining: the Petzl NAO ($175), an adaptive and rechargable headlamp, seems to work in conjunction with…
Short shorts not required, or desired
The North Face Back-to-Berkeley Low Down
The North Face Back-to-Berkeley Low Down ($110) hiking shoes are a perfectly executed throwback to a simpler time, when bell bottoms and hang-glider-sized collars were all the rage. But their retro good looks belie the cutting-edge technology infused throughout: a waterproof suede and polyurethane coated ballistic mesh upper, an inner HydroSeal waterproof membrane liner, 100g…
At your beHEST
DPx Gear HEST II Survival Knife
Once you start toting a knife in your EDC, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it. Cutting, prying, and oh-so-important meat-slicing — you've never had it so good. There are plenty of fantastic utility knives for that kind of work — but they don't quite cut it when you move out of the concrete…
You Are My Sunshine
Design Spotlight: AE Light SolarMine Emergency Lantern
The Boy Scouts of America's motto is simply "Be prepared". They're spot on: failing to do so can lead to some seriously bad outcomes when true disaster strikes. The AE Light SolarMine Emergency Lantern ($115) is made to give you light in exactly that unfortunate occasion, and having proved itself during Japan's horrific 2011 earthquake…
Leather legacy
Danner Mountain Trail Left Bank Boot
Boot technology has come a long way since the days of Sir Edmund Hillary, but some things, like a vintage-style hiking boot, should never change. Danner, in collaboration with Tanner Goods, has made an exemplary modern classic in the Danner Mountain Trail Left Bank boot ($350). Made in the Portland, Oregon Danner factory, this special…
Pin a Tail on Your Donkey
Dinoot Modular Camping Trailers
Unless you're fastpacking, any trip involving more than two people (kids, especially) maxes out vehicle cubic space before you run out of things you need to bring. Dinoot Modular Camping Trailers ($789+) let you take everything on your list, plus everything on your wife's list, too. With modular, build-as-you-go setup, each trailer is customizable to…
Best Made Co. Duck Canvas Axe Case
A list of locales that are not axe-friendly: your kid's preschool; any school, for that matter; certain churches, chapels, mosques, temples and cathedrals; Apple stores. For everywhere (ok, not everywhere) else, there's the Best Made Co. Duck Canvas Axe Case ($110+). This perfect answer for card-carrying axemen is designed with safety and protection in mind,…
Don't bury this one
Often, when you're a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. So good on Hardcore Hammers for busting their own paradigm with the Hardcore Hatchet ($45). The move is a natural one for the hammer makers — from one artful, useful expression of wood and metal to another. Like their hammers, every hatchet is individually…

EMC taps former GE veteran as new CIO
Send this story to a friend
- Patricia Resende
- Managing Editor MHT- Boston Business Journal
EMC Corp. (NYSE: EMC) has added a former 20-year General Electric executive to join the storage giant as CIO and executive vice president of corporate services.
Vic Bhagat has joined the Hopkinton, Mass.-based company, replacing Sanjay Michrandani. He will report to president and COO Howard Elias.
Before joining EMC, Bhagat, who holds a bachelors of science in MIS and marketing from the University of Louisville, KY, helped establish Accenture's Big Data analytics practice for Natural Resources. He also held the role of CIO for many organizations within GE including GE Aviation Services, GE Global Growth and Operations, CNBC, GE Corporate, GE India and Southeast Asia.
"I've admired and worked closely with EMC over the years, and look forward as, together, we transform the industry through Cloud Computing, Big Data and Trusted IT solutions," Bhagat said in a statement.
News of the appointment comes just one day before EMC is slated to release its Q4 earnings. Last quarter, the company reported growth based on its storage business and growth in its VMware revenues. Analysts expect EMC's growth to continue, but more slowly.

Posted Jul 23, 2012By Galen
LYTHAM ST. ANNES, England—Ernie Els plucked the ball from the hole after one last birdie and heaved it into the grandstand. At the time, it looked like nothing more than a classy gesture by a former British Open champion—not the next one.
The name on the claret jug was supposed to be Adam Scott, who had a four-shot lead with four holes to play.
But in a shocking turnaround Sunday, Els returned to the 18th green less than an hour later to claim the oldest trophy in golf. Scott joined a list of players who threw away a major.

Victoria's Best Sleepovers
Westcoast Homes & Design, August 2013
"Although the Grand Pacific is the second-largest hotel in Victoria, it feels like a boutique property. Each room has a private balcony, some with views of the inner harbour (across the road) and resident ducks in the hotel's pond."

Lions like Johnson as next coachTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS | January 04,2014Larry Johnson was one of the few bridges from the Joe Paterno to Bill OBrien era. Now, the coaching staff holdover has strong support from his players to become the next Penn State coach.
Johnson was appointed interim coach this week and can only hope the players vote of confidence carries weight when he applies for the permanent job following Bill OBriens hiring by the Houston Texans.
Why not Larry Johnson? Ive been here 18 years, I think I know the lay of the land very well, Johnson said Friday.
Penn State, however, has other candidates in mind to take over a program steadied by OBrien after the Jerry Sandusky scandal.
But one big name with connections to the teams storied past is out of the running. A person familiar with the situation told the AP that former Rutgers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Greg Schiano was not a candidate. The person said neither Schiano nor the school had interest in going through the hiring process. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the search is confidential.
Vanderbilts James Franklin and Miami coach Al Golden, a former Penn State captain under Paterno, are also among the possibilities on Penn States short list. Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Jim Caldwell and Tennessee Titans coach Mike Munchak are also likely in play.
Penn State athletic director Dave Joyner said Thursday the search will be over in days.
Although there will be some push from Paterno loyalists to give Johnson a chance, his odds are slim. Johnson joined the Nittany Lions staff in 1996 and has been the defensive line coach since 2000.
Hes an excellent leader, Joyner said. He has a long history with Penn State, and hes a great representative of what Penn State football and Penn State University is all about. I think hes got the respect of both recruits as well as the student-athletes that are here. So in my book, Larry is a very solid individual who will be a solid base as we get through this.
Johnson has contacted both recruits and current players, trying to keep the team together.
Im not worried about whats going to happen to Larry Johnson, he said. Im worried about keeping this program moving forward.
His son, Larry, was a star running back for the Nittany Lions and the Kansas City Chiefs. He said he hasnt thought about whether he will stay if he job goes to someone else. In that case, of course, the decision might not be his to make.
Hes already been successful in keeping freshman quarterback Christian Hackenberg in the fold. He won Big Ten freshman of the year honors after throwing for 2,955 yards second most in the league and third in Penn State history.
He had 20 touchdown passes with 10 interceptions and ran for four more scores in leading the Nittany Lions to a 7-5 record.
Hes going to be back here and ready to go on the 13th and get going, Johnson said.
Hackenberg would be just one of many players encouraged that Johnson has been kept around.
Penn State defensive end Deion Barnes wrote on Twitter, I know me and many other players would love to have coach Johnson as our head coach, hes a great leader and will be a great head coach.
And tight end Jake Kiley tweeted: Nice to hear that keeping Coach Johnson as our head coach could be an option. No one knows us or the school better.
Johnson said he had a great final conversation with OBrien, who became emotional talking about his departure. OBrien led the Nittany Lions to two winning seasons (8-4, 7-5) while restoring some tempered enthusiasm in Happy Valley.
Less than two years after succeeding Paterno, OBrien was introduced Friday in Houston as the Texans coach.
I love the players at Penn State and I respect their toughness and their resiliency and everything that theyve demonstrated on a day-to-day basis, he said. I do regret not being able to continue with the great kids on that team. While I tried never to mislead anyone, I understand that some people feel let down. But again, it was a decision that was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me.
And it could lead to one for Johnson.
