Mighty Oaks Advance to Tournament Semifinals
ESF upsets third-seeded Concordia College, 3-0
The ESF Mighty Oaks men's soccer team won its first-round game in the 2012 U.S. Collegiate Athletic Association (USCAA) National Championship Tournament Thursday afternoon.
The sixth-seeded Mighty Oaks upset third-seeded Concordia College 3-0. The Mighty Oaks took a 1-0 lead into halftime on a goal by Dillon Buchberg. In the second half, Kyle Bardwell scored with 20 minutes left in the game. Five minutes later, Kyle Siegel put the ball in the bottom left corner of the net to put the Mighty Oaks up 3-0.
The Mighty Oaks will play again at 1 p.m. Friday, Nov. 2, when they face the second-seeded Golden Bears of West Virginia University Institute of Technology. The Golden Bears won their first-round game by defeating Penn College 10-0 Thursday.
The championship game is set for 1 p.m. Saturday at Warren Wilson College in Asheville, N.C.
The Mighty Oaks were invited to the tournament in only their third season as a varsity intercollegiate team.
"We are extremely happy to be making ESF's first appearance in the USCAA's championship event. The team has trained very hard for this and is well prepared," said Coach Dan Ramin. "Qualifying for this event has been a team goal for the last three years."
In other first round games, host Warren Wilson College was scheduled to play the University of Maine-Fort Kent, which earned the top seed in the tournament after finishing the regular season at 15-1. Yankee Conference men's champion NHTI, Concord's Community College of New Hampshire, was set to battle a one-loss Briarcliffe College team from Long Island in the four versus five match-up.
The men's bracket features three teams returning to Asheville for a second consecutive year: the University of Maine-Fort Kent, Briarcliffe College and Warren Wilson College.

Rate increases are nothing new for insurance companies. But a jump from $2,000.00 to $8,000.00 dollars a year? That is the sticker shock being felt by one family from Pangburn.
When a water leak damaged his home, John Vaughan says the repair bill totaled about $6,000.00.
Vaughan says he and his insurance company split the cost.
With a $3,100.00 claim, Vaughan expected his rate to go up a bit this year.
"I was expecting a rate increase of ten, fifteen percent, yeah," says Vaughan.
"What did you get?"
"A 308 percent rate increase," replies Vaughan.
"And did you get any advance notice?"
"no," he says. "None at all."
Vaughan says he received notice from Progressive of his new rate of over $8,000.00 a year yesterday (Monday, March 31st)...only a day before his bank account would have been drafted (today, April 1st).
He has shared his concerns with the Arkansas Insurance Department and visited with an investigator on Tuesday...while he was out shopping for a new insurance policy.
"I'm an old veteran so like I say...and a disabled veteran on top of that," says Vaughan. "There's only so many eggs in a basket and you can't...you know you're on a fixed income and everything is going up."
The two main questions Vaughan is hoping the Insurance Department will answer...one, is there a cap on how much a premium can go up year to year and two, is there any requirement that some sort of advance notice is given prior to a big increase?
No answers yet...but we'll let you know.

The Herald Bulletin
ANDERSON, Ind. —
A man who pleaded guilty to drug charges in March was sentenced Monday.
Curtis R. Stowes, 49, of Anderson, received a 14-year sentence, at least 8 to be served in prison, for two counts of dealing controlled substances, both Class B felonies, for incidents last spring. Stowes pleaded guilty to both counts on March 25 and was sentenced Monday by Madison Circuit Court 4 Judge David Happe.
Police alleged that on April 5, 2012, Stowes delivered 73 hydrocodone pills for $300 during a controlled buy. Roughly a month later on May 7, 2012, Stowes again delivered hydrocodone pills to the informant. That time the deal was 53 pills for $225, according to a probable cause affidavit. "He was selling entire prescriptions at a time, and that's one of the major reasons we targeted him. We try to get some bigger drug dealers, and prescription drugs are a huge problem," said an officer on the Madison County Drug Task Force unit.
The officer said the investigation of Stowes lasted about four months, but police have known about Stowes for years. He said controlled buys are a fairly typical procedure, especially in drug busts.
"Our objective in these cases is long-term investigations," the officer said.
Stowes had just pleaded guilty to a charge of theft in March 2012, and had been sentenced to a year in the work-release program. As part of his probation, he was supposed to stay away from alcohol and illegal drugs and submit to drug tests regularly, according to public record documents.
Violating his probation and his criminal history were aggravating factors against Stowes in sentencing.

Now that the iconic Vespa PX series has been killed off by emissions laws, the LX twist-and-go four-stroke is just about the closest thing to the original Vespa look. Underneath the classic looks they're a modern scoot – and the pink scooter in our pictures is thankfully a limited edition colour!

The Suzuki DR125SE, is a straightforward but attractively styled four-stroke learner trailie that was only available for a limited period, so rare now. Earlier twin-headlamp "Raider' was more common, but most are by now unserviceable. A good Suzuki DR125SE is a valid alternative to an XT125 or the like.

If you want to travel back through time to the 1950s then the Royal Enfield Bullet 350 is the bike for you. Great engineering details, and it actually makes a pleasant rural commuter bike, returning 70mpg or more at a steady 55mph. Needs TLC of course, like most old classics, but still undeniably good fun.

Simply put the Aprilia Tuono 125 is an Aprilia RS125 with nose fairing and flat bars. Which is why it'll suit taller 17-year-olds much better than its racier sibling. It loses nothing in handling terms, with excellent brakes and packs stunning looks into what's already a very tempting package. And once de-restricted it's a flyer.
125cc, 15bhp, 93mph, Insurance group 12
The Aprilia RS125 has remained the top motorcycle for most right-thinking teenagers since it first rolled out of the factory in 1995. It oozes big motorcycle style and handles like a dream. It's expensive to buy and run thanks to pricey two-stroke motorcycle oil, but, if you can afford it, the Aprilia RS125 is worth every penny. Watch the Aprilia RS125 take on Honda's CBR125R and ...

NEW YORK (AP) - Alex Rodriguez's lawyers want to keep a lid on potential video of him being questioned in his lawsuit against a New York Yankees team doctor.
A Bronx judge suggested Tuesday that both sides agree not to disseminate any such video without court input. There's no pact as yet.
Rodriguez says Dr. Christopher Ahmad didn't tell him of October 2012 MRI results showing a left hip joint tear. Rodriguez says he therefore kept playing and worsened the injury.
Depositions, or pretrial questioning under oath, are customary. They're often not made public before trial.
Rodriguez's lawyer Alan Ripka says his client wants to avoid leaks of video of him answering potentially sensitive medical questions.
Ahmad lawyer Peter Crean says he doesn't intend to release it but Rodriguez's fame shouldn't mean special protections.

The latest Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series started in 2012. After the 1987 cartoon ended in 1996, there have been a number of attempts to reboot the franchise on TV as well as in theaters. Not all of them worked. (The less said about the Saban series, the better.) Can the latest series thrive where some of the others have failed?
The show has mostly the same setup as the earlier TMNT shows. There are four turtles, Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo. They were normal turtles that were mutated and now live in the sewers with their master, Splinter, who was a man who was mutated into a rat. In the first episode of the first episode, April O'Neil and her father Kirby were kidnapped by Kraang, who along with Shredder (and to a lesser extent, Stacy Hirano, his adopted daughter) are the main bad guys in the series. However, a lot of the series also deals with the freak of the week, which isn't surprising, as one of the main elements of the show is mutations.
Now that we have the basic setup out of the way, what episodes are found on the DVD?
Extras begin with Mutation of a Scene, which looks at a scene from each episode in storyboard, animatic, and final form. In total, these six scenes run more than 30 minutes. There is also a three-minute Channel 6 News Special Report, which looks at the first evidnce for the Creatures of the Night.
The latest incarnation of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is better than some of the previous attempts at the franchise. Perhaps if you really loved the original cartoon and despise change, then you won't like this show. Otherwise, if you are a fan of TMNT, then Mutagen Mayhem is worth picking up.

Meeting Notes - April 19, 2012
Transition Compacts: Lessons from UN Experiences
Rachel Locke and Vanessa Wyeth, rapporteurs
This meeting note captures the proceedings at a seminar on November 2, 2011 on "Transition Compacts: Lessons from UN Experiences." The seminar sought to learn from previous agreements on peacebuilding and development priorities between national governments and international partners in fragile and conflict-affected states.
During the meeting, the International Peace Institute presented a study on United Nations experiences with this first generation of "transition compacts," a summary of which is included at the end of this note.
(For the full findings, see the IPI report "Aid Effectiveness in Fragile States: Lessons from the First Generation of Transition Compacts.")
The seminar was hosted by IPI and organized in collaboration with the United Nations and the International Network on Conflict and Fragility (INCAF), a subsidiary body of the OECD's Development Assistance Committee. Participants included officials from the UN, its member states, the World Bank, and INCAF. The meeting was convened under the Chatham House rule of nonattribution.

Reviews for this vacation apartment rental in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada
Kelly Houston
Burlington, ON
Great spot just outside St. John's
July 17, 2014
This spot is more than an apartment. It's a beautiful 2 bedroom basement apartment that doesn't look or feel like a basement apartment. The apartment is lovely and very well appointed. The scenery is phenomenal, with much time spent in Muslims chairs around the fire. The owner, Judy, is lovely and very helpful. I would book here again in an instant. Thanks Judy!

In my personal opinion , if you want to truly experience Newfoundland , you won't find a better place to start than at the Royle Roost. I decided to write this today after driving by yesterday and remembering what a wonderful week I had back in April . I would like to thank and congratulate the owner of the Royle Roost on the wonderful accommodations we so gratefully were given the opportunity to have availed of. This home itself is EXTREMELY well appointed , with amazing character and the ocean right beside the door. This rental property has an in house washer and dryer !!! A very comfortably gracious home ; in every sense of the word. Every thing a body needs and far more and even some amenities from the owner , just because. I would recommend this home away from home for anyone - just wanting to run away to the seaside. I WILLL be back - Over and Over !! It was wonderful whatever we needed was at hand , if not already there. pick up whatever food item you want just down the road . All the conveniences , all the time It's the perfect get away 30 minutes from St. John's. And now there are icebergs in the cove , not just water !! I cannot say Thank you enough to owners for providing an amazingly peaceful home for us and others. I do hope more people talk about the wonderful experience and the beauty that is the Royle Roost in Witless Bay , Newfoundland !Thank you , Thank you Thank you !!!

1. Good location. 2. Scenic. 3. Clean. 4. Should pay more attention to little things which are quite annoying like squeaking of doors, broken dishwasher, not enough kitchen wares, etc. 5. Should have unlimited supply of paper towel, bathroom tissues, etc. 6. Too many small ornamental stuff in a small space. 7. Should have a visual check out but not to complain after clients have left.
Owner's reply:
Thank you for the lovely testimonial you wrote in our guestbook. According to other feedback from guests, our kitchen facilities more than meet expectations. Kleenex, toilet paper and paper towels were provided for your entire stay. There is also a sign by the entrance door, "Please treat this space with the respect you would in your own home. Contents found missing or broken will be charged to your credit card."
Thank you so much for this lovely home. We have enjoyed the stay. We are travellers from Europe and the feeling in this home was perfect for our short break. Thank you.
Warmest regards. Josh, Harry. Bjorn, Niels and Jasmia.

|Tehran welcomes Hamas-Fatah reconciliation deal
TEHRAN – An Iranian Foreign Ministry official on Saturday welcomed a landmark reconciliation deal signed by Hamas and Fatah, the two main rival Palestinian factions.
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Marzieh Afkham said that the Islamic Republic welcomes solidarity among Palestinian groups in their campaign against the Zionist regime and efforts meant to promote unity among them to help the Palestinian people stand up to Israel's illegitimate demands.
The Guardian reported on Thursday that Hamas and Fatah had signed an accord designed to end seven years of division, paving the way for elections later in the year and the formation of a unity government within weeks.
Israel immediately responded by saying Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas was moving to peace with Hamas instead of peace with Israel. "He has to choose," said Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. "Does he want peace with Hamas or peace with Israel? You can have one but not the other. I hope he chooses peace, so far he hasn't done so."
The agreement was signed in Gaza City on Wednesday by Ismail Haniyeh, Palestine's democratically elected prime minister, and a senior Palestinian Liberation Organization delegation dispatched by Abbas.
"This is the good news we have to tell the people: the era of discord is ended," Haniyeh said in a news conference in Gaza after signing the deal.

Think back over the years as to how Memorial Day has changed. When I was a kid, there was a national holiday at the end of May. We called it Decoration Day. It didn't matter what day of the week it came, it was still a national holiday. Schools were closed, people were off work, farmers left their fields. We all joined in the celebration.
There are days when I have great thoughts and I think to myself, "Hey, those things would make a great article!" Only trouble is, when I sit down to write an article I can't remember them.
My writing coach, many years ago, told me, "Tom, you should carry a small recorder in your pocket and whenever you have a great thought, put it on tape."
Today there are recorders that don't even have tapes. They work on memory chips instead. Well, I don't have either one and old age is setting in. I would probably buy a voice recorder when shopping if I could remember.
"Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone." (Romans 12:17-18 NIV)
One bumper sticker that has been appearing for a while proclaims the message, "Stop This Endless War!" Whenever we see something like that, we assume that the person is concerned about all the carnage and human degradation that goes along with armed conflicts. Exactly which war this bumper sticker is crying out to us about is a question that only the owner of the bumper knows.
Cedar Key goes virtual
By Josh Berger
As most of you know Cedar Key was recently visited by Rebekah Ray and Kaye Brynes for the young author's conference but this year there was a twist. Polly Werner from Florida Virtual Schools was here to set up a live feed so Florida virtual students could see and interact with the authors along with Cedar Key students.
Just as they always do this time of year, Levy Association for Retarded Citizens (LARC) clients, staff and board members assembled in the dining room of the old Otter Creek School to receive the donation check from the host of the annual Wild Hog Canoe Race fund-raiser.
For the last three years, that group has been AMVETS Post 88 of Bronson, and this year they brought a check for $6,800.
The total was just a little over last year's contribution of $6,725, and post commander Clyde McGarva felt it keenly.
"We wanted to do better by them," he said.
Cedar Key City Commission voted 3-2 Tuesday against continuing its contract with police chief Bubba Castell.
Island and area residents filled the City Hall commission room, overflowed the porch and packed the lawn on two sides of the building, trying to hear the proceedings in the first commission meeting since the May 6 election.
"If the LORD delights in a man's way, he makes his steps firm; though he stumble, he will not fall, for the LORD upholds him with his hand." (Psalm 37:23-24 NIV)
Naked in the streets. How long has it been since you've read those words? Let me guess. Sometime seven or eight years ago I bet, in the Cedar Key Beacon. Those words marked the heading of a long-running weekly column written by Van Proctor. The heading featured a picture of Van wearing a broad-rimmed straw hat, a hat few have ever seen, at least not in public. Van was a standard of sorts. He wrote whatever he wanted and he got away with it.
Last week I wrote about the Hawaiian Islands and made a boo-boo. I said the Island of Kawai was known for its popular places. I mentioned Honolulu, Waikiki Beach and a few others like Diamond Head. But, duh! Anyone knows those places are not on Kawai. What I meant to say was the Island of Oahu. Honolulu and the other places are on Oahu.
The funny thing is I have been to Hawaii. It was just drain bramage that made me do it. As a matter of fact I have been to Hawaii twice before, so I don't know how I made the boo-boo. Well, anyway, here's some accurate information:
With its thrilling juxtaposition of Miami Vice and the Irish Troubles, Pierce Kelley's latest legal thriller, A Tinker's Damn! may be his best work yet.
Kevin Coffee, Kelley's latest protagonist, is an Irish immigrant growing up in New York City when the story begins. Poverty and prejudice lead him into the criminal world for the benefit of his family. With no father and no outside help, he learns to steal food so his family can eat. As an adult, he develops a morally ambiguous worldview, moving to Mariel boatlift-era Miami to become an opportunistic drug smuggler.

Today, we're lucky enough to feature two of the apartments, both of which were tiny, cramped spaces that desperately needed an injection of style. Keep clicking to see how Kyle transformed the flats into fantastic sanctuaries for their residents. If you love what you see in the apartments, you can also shop the products at HauteLook. Before What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 A look at Emma's apartment before Kyle transformed it. 1 / 10 Before What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 CasaSugar: Can you tell me about the client? What were her wishes or guidelines for the apartment? Kyle Schuneman: Emma just moved here from Australia and she really wanted the quintessential New York City apartment. She had just bought a small settee but was fearful to go further as she didn't really have a direction. She loves the bold power of red and really let me take chances as long as it still felt sophisticated and was a space that her new friends could come over and have a drink. Oh, and she said absolutely no animal prints! 2 / 10 Before What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Emma's apartment 3 / 10 After What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 CS: How did you decide on the color palette? KS: Because Emma said she liked red I ran with it. Not many clients give you such strong color ideas so I jumped at the chance. I think there are many ways to approach a space and no one way is right. In this case I decided to go bold on the walls and then keep the furnishings neutral to avoid it from going into Pee-Wee's Playhouse territory. With a red backdrop I chose creams and whites as a base for the furniture and used contrasting black and charcoals to add pattern. This space was all about bold color and patterns to really maximize the small space visually and keep your eye moving. 4 / 10 After What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 CS: I love the mix of patterns. How did you decide on this pattern mix, and what tips can you offer for successfully mixing patterns like this? KS: I think layering pattern is just as important as layering color so I really wanted to play up the geometry in the space for a sophisticated feel. Because the patterns were so bold I kept them all in the same color story — black and white. If you want to mix bold patterns that are all large keep the color scheme the same. If you want to layer different colored patterns then mix the scales from large to small. 6 / 10 After What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 CS: Can you talk a little about how you created the foyer nook? KS: As you can see in the before shot the two spaces (foyer and living room) melded into one and there was no definition. In a small space you really want to emphasize what you have, so in this case I wanted to make the two spaces really defined. So I used a DIY project in my upcoming book, The First Apartment Book: Cool Designs for Small Spaces, of painting a chevron pattern on the walls to really make it special. In a tiny area like this or a powder room you can really have fun with the walls and treat it like a jewel box. It was a great way to turn one area into two real spaces in a glamorous way. 6 / 10 After What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 CS: What is the large scale piece of art in the living area? KS: With every space I like to mix up the artwork, both shape and sizes. So with this piece I wanted to go with something oversized and just leave it on the floor like a downtown loft. It's a cool way to show off art like this incredible piece without having to put a hole in the wall. Emma was also an ideal client because she didn't want a TV in her living room — which is heaven to a designer's ears. So instead of having to create a seating group around the TV this was able to be both a focal point and a backdrop to the two side chairs. 7 / 10 After What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Emma's apartment, transformed! 8 / 10 After What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 CS: What furniture and art did you use in this space? KS: All the furniture, decor, art. and accessories were from HauteLook, except for Emma's existing settee, which she had just purchased when moving in. To complement her sofa I used two beautiful side chairs made from a bent walnut and cream linen fabric. I wanted to keep the small space feeling open so these chairs with the open arms is a great way to do that. I went with an opaque white glass nesting table set instead of a traditional coffee table. It's a much better idea for a small space because they're so transitional for different events and for normal days can be tucked together to maximize square footage — It's like getting three tables for one! My favorite piece in the space is actually the black bar cabinet. I think it's so beautiful, looks so expensive, and is a piece Emma will have with her forever. It's also great because storage is always necessary in a small space and it really grounds that corner. The brass sculptures are my way of adding that unexpected element that every space should have. They're a conversation starter and I love adding a little metallic to a space — it's like jewelry for your outfit. 9 / 10 After What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 CS: What was your client's reaction? KS: She loved it — when I first showed her the mood board her reaction was, Wow I can't really picture it all together, but I'm excited. And once she saw everything together she was thrilled. She already had a housewarming party in her new space and said her friends were beyond impressed with her new digs! 11 / 10 5 8 11 2 0 Back to Homepage Comments Read More Before And After ProjectsDecorating InspirationDecorating TipsHome RenovationInspiration Inspiration 15 Gorgeous Ways to Style Sheepskin 1 day ago Best DIY Projects For Home Decorating 2 days ago Inspired Headboard Alternatives 3 days ago Drink Up!

Acclaimed restaurateur Yoshi Tome came to America for a teacher-exchange program, but he used his degree more in teaching Americans how to truly enjoy sushi. Today he owns the restaurant Sushi Ran, where his chefs craft entrees with fresh fish from local purveyors or from the Tsukiji market in Tokyo. Executive chef Scott Whitman has a plate for every taste—vegetarian options, seafood, and meaty entrees including slow-cooked duck breast and Vietnamese shaking beef. Meanwhile, executive sushi chef Nori Kusakabe rolls soft-shell crab, vegetables, and spicy tuna at the sushi bar. Wine director Gabriel Alamilla helps diners navigate the 300-bottle wine list and explore the collection of 30 small-production wines by the glass. He matches rieslings with raw fish and chardonnays with Japanese entrees. He can also recommend a selection from 30 different sakes, which are separated into four categories: fragrant, light/smooth, rich, and aged.
Roy Lui and Chanel Liu, expert fish purveyors and Tsukiji Sushi Bar & Restaurant's proprietors, place veteran chef Haruo Komatsu at the helm of a kitchen stocked with fresh fish and tender Koshihikari rice. Sourced from the enormous Tsukiji fish market in Tokyo, sushi staples including albacore tuna, salmon, and eel curl up in sleeping bags of salty rice and seaweed alongside more exotic offerings such as sea urchin, flying-fish roe, giant clam, and lightly grilled submarine. At the sushi bar, chef Komatsu awes onlookers in seven nearby seats as he deftly slices rolls and doles them out for immediate consumption.
Build-Your-Own Menu
Inside Tip: Though customizable rolls are the top seller, you can also opt for signature selections such as the miso sushi roll with salmon, tuna, fish cake, seaweed salad, and pickled radish.
Vocab Lesson
Kimchi: a spicy-and-sour mix of fermented veggies such as cabbage, radish, and cucumber that's popular in Korea
Tobiko: flying fish roe; its red-orange color and crunchy texture make it a popular garnish for sushi
While You're in the Neighborhood: After dinner, sip a drink while listening to a live DJ at EZ5 (684 Commerical Street).
Live Sushi Bar, Live Sushi Bistro, and Live Sushi Mission blend tradition with innovation in the rice-wrapped fish arts at all three welcoming restaurants. All three distinct locations share lunch, dinner, and drink menus, as well as experienced staff and sushi chefs who demonstrate their skills at a sushi bar outfitted with seats for dining spectators.
A Sampling of Sushi
Some Not-Sushi Options
The Drinks
Perhaps Frommer's put it best when describing what sets Ace Wasabi's Rock-N-Roll Sushi apart "from the usual sushi spots around town," citing "the unique combinations, the varied menu, and the young, hip atmosphere." Indeed, this restaurant has stood out since 1995 thanks to inventive dishes that feature seasonal fish flown in from Tokyo's Tsukiji Fish Market. The tuna, scallops, crabs, and salmon are paired with accouterments such as maine lobster and Niman Ranch bacon bits. Nearly 40 maki rolls fill up the dinner menu––with options named after famous bands, movies, lingerie shops, and even Elvis¬¬––many of which can be wrapped in organic quinoa instead of sushi rice. No matter the selection, there's something to complement its flavors on the drink menu, which includes six beers on tap, wines from around the globe, seven signature cocktails, and an extensive list of cold and hot sake. Not surprisingly, posters and album covers from rock-and-roll bands such as U2 and The Pretenders bedeck the walls, which are illuminated by studio lighting. Bottles of sake and candles line display cases, and an open sushi bar gives diners a chance to watch the masters at work.
Asian food is a familiar part of California's culinary scene, but Nombe Restaurant's Japanese-style tapas and brunch still manage to surprise. At dinner, parties can share small plates of deep-fried brussels sprouts with oranges and fish sauce, or they can indulge in a seven-course Kaiseki meal. The brunch menu hits sweeter notes; beignets with chocolate-orange sauce, and nori and wasabi hollandaise color a Japanese-style benedict.
Nombe actually translates to "someone who likes to drink heartily," so of course the restaurant features a thoughtful selection of libations. In addition to 90 kinds of sake and 8 Japanese beers, patrons can sip on blood-orange mimosas and bloody marys spiced with shichimi togarashi. Onsite sake classes help diners avoid an embarrassing mix-up between rice wine and rice vinegar, and traditional Japanese sushi-making/team-building classes give them a turn inside the kitchen.

Coleman: 'Dangerous' for Bale to play full 90 for Madrid
Wales manager Chris Coleman has said it would be "dangerous" if Real Madrid try to play Gareth Bale for a full 90 minutes on Saturday.
The 24-year-old is in line to make his debut for his new club against Villarreal, after appearing as a substitute for Wales, in their 3-0 defeat to Serbia.
Bale has been suffering with a foot injury, and then a groin problem. He came off the bench with just over half an hour remaining, and almost grabbed a goal with a free-kick.
Coleman said: "If he starts Saturday, he will not finish the game. I would be amazed if he does. We have looked at him in these 10 days and he is nowhere near ready for 90 minutes, even if Spanish football is slower. He has only had four training sessions in two months which is dangerous."

Police found a boy Thursday who left high school early on Wednesday afternoon and never returned.
Brandon Decent, 12, lives at the Nebraska Youth Center, a home for state wards, and takes classes at the high school.
He was located without incident via a tip to a family member shortly before noon Thursday. He will be placed back at the youth center, police spokesman Rodney Brown said.
Decent was reported missing around 3 p.m. Wednesday. He reportedly walked away from the school shortly after 2 p.m.
Decent receives schooling through the T.I.E.S Program, which is held at the high school. The program is primarily for high schoolers but a few middle school students attend, Brown said.

Board Bateaux London's river cruiser from the glass pontoon at Embankment Pier, then relax on board and enjoy a three-course lunch, followed by tea or coffee. But don't let the great food distract from the fabulous views available on Thames cruises, as the boat passes the Houses of Parliament, the Tower of London and many more iconic landmarks. After lunch (from a seasonally changing menu) be dropped off just a few steps from the EDF Energy London Eye. There may be a queue here, but it'll be worth it on climbing aboard the air-conditioned capsule. The Eye slowly turns, giving sensational panoramic views across London from 135 metres up. This experience is for two but is also available for one (BATTO).
Lunch cruises operate every Thursday to Saturday from January to March, Wednesday to Saturday in April and May, Tuesday to Saturday from June to September and Wednesday to Saturday October to December. Bank holidays are excluded. Please note Saturday availability is very limited.
Minimum age 5. Under 18's must be accompanied by an adult. A vegetarian meal option is available. Boats don't have full wheelchair access (ramp to access boat and bathrooms accessed by stairs). EDF Energy London Eye tickets are not fast track.
Bateaux London cruises operate in all weather conditions.
Boarding from Embankment Pier at 11.45am or 12.30pm, to depart at 12.15pm or 1pm. Disembark at either 1.45pm or 2.30pm. Exact boarding time will be e-mailed 24 hours in advance of the booking. Please arrive promptly as late boarding is not possible.
The Symphony seats a maximum of 220 diners and The Naticia 110. Each EDF Energy London Eye capsule holds up to 25 people.
Spectators are welcome to wave from the riverbank.
Smart casual wear is requested please.
Drinks are payable directly. Smoking permitted on outside decks only. The EDF Energy London Eye flight is at approx 2.30pm (subject to availability) and lasts around 30 mins. Collect tickets from Bateaux London Reception, Embankment Pier.
Lots of photos of London, lots of memories of a great day
The trip on the boat was fantastic. All of the staff we encountered at Bateaux London were very helpful, professional and friendly. This made the experience very special. The views on the Eye were amazing and well worth the queue.
This was a really lovely day out. We were lucky with the weather - a sunny clear day. The boat trip was very well organised, the lunch was delicious, and the tour commentary was interesting. Although the queue for the eye was enormous, it keeps moving and it didn't take long to board. The eye was spectacular! A fab day out!
Would reccomend this day out, thoroughly enjoyable, knowledgable about our capital city and lovely meal.
We had a truly memorable day lunching on board and then on The Eye. The food was excellent as was the service from the staff.Well done and Thank you.
This was a birthday treat for my wife and I from our son and daughter-in-law and we booked to go on our 31st wedding anniversary. The cruise was excellent with good food, wine, service and commentary giving the history of the sights we passed as we cruised. After the cruise we went on the London Eye what an experience. If only the weather had been better but we can do nothing about the british weather. Overall a great experience and a great day out in London.
The meal and service on the river cruise was very good The information provided on board was really interesting .
everybody should take the cruise. So interesting and lovely food. The London Eye was truly amazing worth every penny,
I took my mother on the Thames lunch cruise and on the London eye for her birthday and it was amazing. The service was unbelievable and we were both made to feel very special. It was definitely worth it and an experience that was unforgettable. The views were amazing and the experience lasted for the whole day. Everything was already planned and the booking was quick and easy. If you want to treat someone this is definitely the best idea as it's truly unforgettable.
My husband and I really enjoyed the day. The views from the boat were great and the informative commentary made them even better. The food was lovely too. Adding the London Eye to the cruise was well worth it - we could see the crowds outside Buckingham Palace waiting for news of the new Prince.
My children bought my wife and I this gift for our 25th Anniversary........we had a great day out on the boat the commentary was fantastic and the meal was great.
The experience was first class, professional service and the food was amazing.
The staff on board our River Cruise were excellent. We had a very enjoyable meal. Would recommend highly.
The service, staff and food onboard the river cruise was all first rate and is highly recommended. Being a busy August Saturday, the queue for the London Eye was around 45 minutes, but the tickets can be fast tracked or we could have used at any date up to end of March next year.
Very good meal and a relaxing cruise
Wonderful experience! Excellent commentary, wonderful food and superb service on board. Food was excellent and beautifully presented. Would do this again.
We got given this as a wedding present, booking this experience was really easy and when we got to the boat to pick our tickets up we found the staff friendly and informative. The customer service all the way though the trip was brilliant. We saw a few free tables near the window free and asked to move table from the centre of the boat, once we started moving we were lucky enough to get a window seat (important to say we had to ask for this and it placed into a queue of those that request it as people paid extra to get this experience) we had amazing views, fantastic food and excellent service. One truly amazing experience with the London eye as well.
What a wonerful present to give/recieve.The service was great and food excellent.Thank you for making our day special. What a wonderful way to dine.
We had a most enjoyable day out in London and the experience exceeded our expectations. The boat trip was excellent and gave us a view of London which enabled us to see the sights of the city which we hear about but had never seen. The boat was was clean and spacious and gave us an all round view of those London landmarks which we see on TV and decide that we must see for real. The meal was excellent and the staff polite and efficient. A great way to enjoy the Thames, enjoy a meal and enjoy the sights. Although the queue was long at the London Eye we were able to enjoy the sunshine and the queue was well handled by the numerous and effective marshals who carried out their duties with humour and a smile and we were soon airborne. The view exceeded expectations and on a clear and sunny day we were able to pick out the many landmarks which we know and love about London. We went on to see more of the city on foot and got back to Birmingham well satisfied with the day. Thank You.
This was a birthday present which in the event was greatly appreciated. Harmony is a great boat for river cruising, the food was enjoyed very much and the staff were first class and very friendly. The layout of the dining area is excellent also. We have already recommended your company to relatives and friends. The London Eye is a great way to see London from a new viewpoint, in air conditioned comfort. A good day all round.
Nearest tube station is Embankment from which it is only a short walk to Embankment pier

News: Young Money's "Rise Of An Empire" Sales Projections Decrease
Friday, Mar 14, 2014 3:45PM
Rap star Lil Wayne's Young Money: Rise Of An Empire is going to need the support of all diehard fans to help make a Top 5 debut as new first-week estimates have the LP selling up to 30,000 copies.
Based on the latest projections, the Young Money compilation should push out at least 27,000 records in week one.
YOUR TOP 15: Disney's Frozen soundtrack will return to #1 for its sixth non-consecutive week. This coincides with the movie's physical DVD release next Tuesday and (alongside the explosion of the Idina Menzel-sung, Oscar-winning "Let It Go") could provide the ammunition for a repeat at #1 the following week. Here's how it looks headed into the weekend: Frozen (Walt Disney) 75-80k *Luke Bryan (Capitol Nashville) 70-75k Rick Ross (Def Jam/IDJ) 40-45k Pharrell Williams (Columbia) 40-45k *Aloe Blacc (XIX/Interscope) 35-40k *311 (311) 35-40k *Young Money: Rise of an Empire (Young Money/Cash Money/Republic) 27-30k (HITS Daily Double)
Based on initial one-day estimates, the group project was expected to sell up to 40,000 units.
EARLY NUMBERS: Heck, this week's HITS Album Sales Chart hasn't even finished building yet and we've got some forecasts for next week. Given that these are extremely early, bear in mind that the numbers are fluid--and keep checking back daily for updates. Luke Bryan will likely fight it out with Disney's relentless Frozen for #1. Luke Bryan (Capitol Nashville) 60-80k Aloe Blacc (XIX/Interscope) 60-75k 311 (311) 35-45k Young Money (Young Money/Republic) 30-40k Sara Evans (RCA Nashville) 20-30k Ledisi (Verve) 20-30k (HITS Daily Double)
Recently, Young Money's Shanell aka SnL spoke to SOHH about the new album.
"You know what's so crazy is I haven't even heard the whole thing yet," Shanell playfully told SOHH referring to the new LP. "I got a couple records on there. There's some different people on there now that Young Money and Cash Money have expanded, so there's going to be some different voices on there. I can't wait to hear what all is on there. One of the records I have on there is called 'Catch Me At The Light' and it has Yo Gotti on there. Look for that and we just shot one of the videos for it with Euro, who is newly signed, and Baby and Wayne. That was a fun shoot. It's a new added addition to the family so hopefully it'll feel like the first one did." (SOHH)
Lil Wayne's group album comes packed with 12 tracks.
Young Money: Rise of an Empire Tracklisting 1. "We Alright" - Euro feat. Birdman and Lil Wayne 2. "Trophies" - Drake 3. "Bang" - Lil Twist feat. Euro and Cory Gunz 4. "Senile" - Tyga feat.

"They could have chosen a better narrator."
I have both, and bought both so that my son could listen and read at the same time. The print version and the audio version don't match up (One is British English, the other is American English). If you are using one or the other it probably wouldn't matter. Together for a child, it might be a little confusing.
Mulch Diggums is my favorite character. He's just so gross it's funny!
I think that he needed to do 2 major things to improve his performance. 1. He needed a better American accent. 2. I would like to see more difference in each character's voice. I really don't think that Artemis' voice should have been so deep.
No. It was 7 hours long.
It was a fun book. Artemis Fowl never disappoints!
"Randy Alcorn lives up to his reputation!"
The continuous fast pace made it very enjoyable. It enabled me to drive without getting sleepy from Nashville back to Metro Detroit!
It was somewhat similar to Dominion, but not quite as good.
He seems to have a good grasp on what the person should sound like without sounding cliche.

In the midst of snowbirds down southPublished 11:24am Thursday, February 20, 2014
Click here to subscribe and skip the survey.
Thoughts of Washington and Lincoln, I'm sorry to say, were not crossing my mind as I made plans to celebrate Presidents' Day last Monday. Instead we made a weekend of it, ours and two other families, and headed to Gulf Shores for some off-season fun.
My husband compared the village of condos where we stayed to a ghost town, and there are definite advantages to that. Low rates. No wait for the tennis courts. Low rates. Beaches wide open. Low rates.
Sitting there in the sand, wearing a winter coat, I tried to imagine the life of the beachcombers passing along the water's edge. The majority appeared to be snowbirds, and if they happened to stop for a chat, well, their northern accents were sure to confirm it. Mostly they were amblers, but a few jogged, and one pair walked their matching poodles.
"So this is it," I found myself thinking. "This is where a solid 401K will get you – walking your dogs on a beach a thousand miles away from your home, your community, and all your loved ones for six months out of the year."
Carrying a scooper.
I confess. Shoveling snow must be harder than I realized.
Sunday morning rolled around, and 14 of us piled into an unsuspecting Shell Banks Baptist Church, where we took up half of the pews. During a meet-and-greet time one of the guys in our party, who happens to live near Birmingham, reached over to shake the hand of a man sitting next to my son.
"You know, you sure do look like our governor," my friend remarked.
"I get that a lot," the dignified gentleman replied with a smile. He paused a moment, then added, "Probably because I am."
Sure enough, there in the midst of a congregation of what I thought for certain was a bunch of snowbirds, was Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley. Evidently snow isn't the only motivation for escape.
At least I had one thing right – he is a retiree. Bentley enjoyed a successful medical practice before accepting the role of state leader. I was interested to learn, however, that one thing he hasn't accepted since landing the job is a paycheck.
When elected in 2010, Gov. Bentley promised he wouldn't receive a salary until Alabama reached full employment (5.2 percent). Fortunately for all involved, the state is getting closer to that point every day.
So while some of his contemporaries are out collecting seashells, this man in the crisp white shirt is busy collecting votes. At 71, Bentley is running for re-election.
In keeping with the holiday, I wondered what Washington would have to say about this governor and those like him who choose to use the knowledge that comes with age (and gray hair, according to Proverbs 16:31) to serve others.
As for what he'd have to say about being leashed to look-a-like poodles? Well, I guess I'll save that to ponder some other Presidents' Day.

Conflict of Laws
This information is for the 2013/14 session.
Teacher responsible
Mr Jacobus Bomhoff NAB6.29
This course is available on the BA in Anthropology and Law and LLB in Laws. This course is available with permission as an outside option to students on other programmes where regulations permit. This course is available to General Course students.
A good knowledge of law is required.
Course content
Conflict of laws - also know as private international law - is the area of law concerned with cases in which the facts present one or more international element. The field's central technical questions are (1) jurisdiction (will an English court or a foreign court hear a case?), (2) choice of law (should the court apply its own law or that of a foreign country?), (3) the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgements, During the course, these three questions will frame reflection on a range of topics, including commercial/practical issues (how can companies structure their cross-border transactions), but also questions of a more political nature (to what extent should States be able to regulate matters beyond their own borders?) or with a strong social/cultural dimension (how should foreign cultural understandings be accommodated in domestic law?). Because of the growing role of the European Union in this area, the interaction between English and European approaches to conflict of laws issues will be an important running theme throughout the course. (1) jurisdiction in international commercial litigation under the traditional English rules and in European law, (2) recognition and enforcement of foreign judgements under European rules and at common law, (3) complex litigation, (4) choice of law in contract and tort, (5) public policy, mandatory rules and exclusion of foreign law, (6) comparative aspects and theoretical foundations of the conflict of laws.
- Jurisdiction of English courts under the traditional rules - actions in personam (service of a claim form within the jurisdiction & out of jurisdiction), choice of court clauses, stay of proceedings, restraining foreign proceedings (anti-suit injunctions).
- Jurisdiction of English courts under European Union Council Regulation 44/2001.
- Recognition & enforcement of foreign judgements at common law and under European rules.
- Choice of law relating to contracts under the Rome I Regulation – interpreting choice of law clauses in contracts, applicable law in absence of choice, mandatory rules, public policy, formal validity, capacity, illegality.
- Choice of law relating to tort – double actionability, Rome II Regulation, 'interest analysis'
- Comparative conflict of laws & Theoretical foundations

An amended elections bill to go before the House plenum for approval does not provide for automatic registration of all eligible new voters in the island's electoral roll.
The main reason is political parties' fear being exposed by an alarming increase in abstention rate, insiders told us.
But the official line is that the Elections Service does not have 'credible evidence' to allow registration of all over 18-year-olds residing in Cyprus six months prior to their registration.
"Why should I allow the over-swelling of the roll when there is no credible evidence that a 50 or 60-year-old for example who never cast a vote in his life is actually a permanent resident of Cyprus?" said Demetris Demetriou who heads the Service.
"Automatic registration applies only to eligible Turkish Cypriots, for political reasons, and to all those who turn 18 three months after the official publication of the new law. The rest have to register the old way," he added.
However, insiders said the main reason for excluding automatic registration for all is the rising apathy of voters.
"Abstention was high enough in previous recent past elections and it will only get worse. The parties know that and want to avoid the bad exposure," one told us. The numbers speak for themselves. Of the 18,000 new voters who have been notified of being eligible to register in the European Parliament elections of May 25, only about 600 have responded so far.
"It is probably the worse response we ever had, we can't recall such a high apathy level, and it is the same with the overseas Cypriot voters too," Demetriou said.
The deadline for registration is Wednesday, April 2, and the deadline for submission of candidacies is Friday, May 2.
The government is to set up overseas voting booths in nine big cities of Greece, in Britain's London, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol and Leeds, and in Brussels.
Cyprus elects six members at the European Parliament and the electoral system is based on proportional representation.
There are some 95,000 Turkish Cypriots holding Republic of Cyprus ID cards which allows them to automatically register. This paves the way for them to elect two MEPs if they choose to participate, if they give up efforts to gain observer status in the EP – a gesture signaling recognition of the breakaway 'state' in the occupied north.
The overall number of registered voters is now close to 550,000 with some 6,000 being EU nationals – based on the numbers who voted back in the 2011 municipal elections. This number is due to change because a lot have left debt-ridden Cyprus since then.
This year's EP elections will be the third in which Cyprus is participating since it joined the EU in May 2004.

Gloucestershire Police extends its recruitment process deadline after website hit with technical problems
Updated 12:00pm Friday 10th January 2014 in News
A TECHNICAL issue with the police recruitment application process has now been resolved.
Following the temporary removal of the relevant weblink members of the public who wish to apply to become police officers can now register and complete an eligibility test after visiting www.gloucestershire.police.uk/Recruitment/item4176.html
Gloucestershire Constabulary apologises for any inconvenience caused and in light of this issue has extended the submission deadline to 4pm on Sunday, January 12.
This is the first time in more than three years that Gloucestershire Constabulary has externally recruited police officers.
Suzette Davenport, chief constable of Gloucestershire Police, said: "We are looking for a group of dedicated individuals, committed to what can sometimes be a very difficult job.
"However, I believe it is a privilege to be a police officer and the right people will find it a hugely rewarding experience."

The much anticipated Music City Center is more than three fourths complete. "We are almost complete with the exterior of the building," explained project manager Larry Atema. The new convention center will technically only be eight floors, but the unique design will make the center 15 stories high. It will feature a ballroom and 60 meeting rooms of varying sizes. The building is also on track to be LEED certified partly because of the 175,000 square foot green roof that is designed to mimic the rolling hills of Tennessee. The new 16 acre, $585 million convention center is scheduled to open in April 2013.

Even the New York Yankees like a bargain and given their expensive offseason, their search for a diamond in the rough is understandable.
Currently in need of pitching, the Yankees have been delving through the free agent pool but have yet to come across anything they're enamored with, though Johan Santana has reportedly caught their eye.
The oft-injured pitcher has recently been holding workouts for teams and is said to be somewhat close to picking from his suitors, which includes the Yankees:
The Yankees are one of several teams monitoring the progress of former Mets ace Johan Santana, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. The person requested anonymity in order to speak freely about the situation. After missing all of 2013, Santana is still rehabilitating from his second anterior capsule surgery and has yet to pitch off a mound this winter. Santana could audition for scouts near his home in Fort Myers, Fla. before spring training.
Of course, the Yankees top pitching prize is none other than the 25-year-old Masahiro Tanaka, though Santana (if healthy) would be an extremely adequate signing as well. Of course, keeping Santana healthy has been a problem but when he's on the field, the veteran arm has no trouble producing.

Joining Ovi proves to be a complex experience for me. I only registered as publisher (representing my company) Dec. 15 and already encountered error upon signing in Dec. 16. My username and/or password is not recognized in spite of the fact that I'm pretty sure I got the right uname and pword.
Nonetheless, I tried the retrieval button "forgot your username or password click here". After a few minutes no email from Ovi was received. I tried a second time providing my mobile number instead but still no reply.
I am alarmed about the possible cause of this problem. I have already provided all information including bank account numbers and the like in the forms but why can't I access my account?
I tried calling the local Nokia office but they advised me to post my concern in the forum instead, raising my concern by several notches. GRAA!!
Who would be the best party/department/person to contact regarding this concern? Please help.
