Olivetto Ristorante and its owner Angelo Fiore welcome patrons with homey ambiance and selection of modern Italian fare influence by classic recipes. In 2008, the San Diego Reader claimed "it has all the virtues of a 'neighborhood Italian joint' ? warmth, spirit, informality, prices not too bad ? but the food is better than most," and Zagat's menu rating of "very good to excellent" supports this assertion. They make their own ravioli and pesto in-house and bake fresh loaves of bread. To accompany meals, the caf? also features a wine selection with refreshing whites and heartier reds from around the world, including authentic Italian offerings. Olivetto welcomes any meeting, from business get-togethers to romantic dinners.
At Wine Steals, a casual wine bar and market the bar?s barrels and shelves are filled with more than 40 international wines. The executive chef, a former US Navy galley cook, arranges artisanal meat and cheese boards and crafts wine-themed international flavor combinations that either spread onto pizzas or curl up into sandwiches. For example, the pinot noir combo mixes Italian flavors of prosciutto, asiago, mozzarella, and white truffle oil.
Servers suggest ideal pairings to novice and experienced oenophiles as they pass drinks and plates across a 14-seat stone bar topped with European-style zinc. Above the bar, a chalkboard framed by wine barrels lists 40 vintages available by the half glass, glass, or bottle. Throughout the space, plush couches and chairs gather around wine barrels with wooden tabletops for more intimate gatherings or heated staring-contest championships. Wine Steals? casual approach to wine and eclectic food has earned it the title of Best Wine Bar in the San Diego Union-Tribune's 2012 readers' poll.
This North Park eatery is renowned chef Matt Gordon's first restaurant in San Diego (he has three now) and it's remained a local favorite for the past seven years. Set in a New Orleans-style yellow house, Urban Solace hosts a festive packed affair each Sunday with their live bluegrass brunch. Their homemade buttermilk cinnamon rolls with cream cheese icing are a worthwhile splurge and other delectables include homemade cheddar and chive biscuits and butter pecan french toast. Chef Gordon's modern American cuisine favors organic, sustainable and natural foods, and the chef makes his own sauces and condiments. For dinner, customers can start with black mussels dotted with potatoes and bacon lardon, and then try the barbecued-glazed Duroc pork belly with creamy grits for some Southern flair. The craft cocktail program provides fun sippers like their Cuke Mule, organic cucumber-infused vodka with ginger syrup, fresh key lime and ginger beer.
Twisted Vine Bistro's staff comprises a fifth-generation Italian vintner and two veteran California-born chefs who cultivate unpretentious epicurean experiences praised by Gayot and Thrillist. During tasting events, local winemakers mingle with guests and tie-dye tongues with fine red and white varietals, which tasters pair with locally sourced snacks from the eatery's menu. The topic of each cooking class rotates frequently, but all sessions allow amateur foodies to rub spatulas with classically trained chefs so they can finally ask an expert why their oven never seems to get their undershirts their whitest. Artwork forged by local artists decks the space, and elegant drapery pulls back to reveal ample windows, which stream sunlight onto green and orange walls.
This La Jolla location of Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar is conveniently nestled into the Aventine shopping center, adjacent to the Hyatt Regency courtyard. They serve up some of the finest USDA prime beef, which can be ordered wet or dry-aged, broiled or iron-crusted. These choice cuts can then be topped with truffle-poached lobster, diablo shrimp or king crab with caviar. The steaks pair elegantly with their award winning collection of 100 wines by the glass, all of which are thoughtfully curated during a twelve-month tasting process. Its flare for fine dining makes Fleming's a popular place for a date night and they also offer a private dining experience for intimate get-togethers and events upon reservation.

The Hollywood FX Master Who Painted Angelina Jolie's Eyeballs

Exactly how many bodies, living and undead, drop during a season of The Walking Dead?
The midseason premiere of The Walking Dead featured a major flashback, and it turns out that looking back into the world before the zombie outbreak makes the show scarier than ever.
After last night's midseason premiere, we sit down with Robert Kirkman to try to get a glimpse of what's shambling down the road later this season.
The mid-season finale of The Walking Dead left us with many burning questions. We took a look at our Magic 8-Ball — as well as all the recent teasers and interviews — to find the answers.
The problem with today's best TV shows is that not one realizes how important the Christmas special episode tradition is — so we've tried to remind them.
Thomas Golubić is responsible for the songs you hear in The Walking Dead. Before that he put music to epic finales for Breaking Bad and Six Feet Under. WIRED asked him about his secrets of soundtracking.
A recap of the Walking Dead midseason finale, "Too Far Gone."
The creator of the Walking Dead is staying with the deceased for Outcast, a new comics series already in development as a television series for Cinemax.
It's a bloody disgrace! There's a grand tradition of gut-wrenching gore in horror films. Arteries spouting blood, heads bursting, viscera flying…ah, good stuff! But the increasing digitization of special f/x is robbing gore of its gross-out power! Watch an episode of The Walking Dead or a recent movie like Cabin in the Woods, and you'll see CG blood erupting from wounds. What an outrage! Fake blood is supposed to be made from Karo syrup and food coloring, not from pixels!

Looks like cold weather has numbed your sense of history as well as art
Ganesh Visarjan of 1920's is squarely equal to MahaAarti of 1990s
Balasaheb decimated the commies as much as Tilak roused the nationalism
Count the followers who thronged the funerals of both Tilak and Bala Saheb
Get a grip . Else bury deep in snow, that would be a favor
Obituaries what are they if not an effort to remain delusional, a subtle plea to conjure up "only the nicest memories" of the dead, an indirect suggestion to the alive that for in the end what awaits them is only a good review so it doesn't matter what they have done or will do, though this write up may not entirely fall into the stature of a "Good review" it does not fall into the stature of "Bad review" either. I would have preferred it to be more direct like " In your dead face" thing, a few days back two girls were arrested for voicing their opinion against the forced shut down of mumbai, in other words for exercising their freedom of speech and a hospital was ransacked by a bunch of SS (Shiv sainik) goons, this only shows the amount of effort that is being put into making an idol out of a man who was nothing more than a simple politician with tricks, arresting those girls for voicing their opinion is such a ridiculous act which only demonizes the politicians involved in this whole episode of trying to shut peoples voices by force, at this juncture one would definitely would like to know what the authorities are doing about the SS thugs who ransacked the hospital just to make sure that we are not in fact a banana republic. This country has to do away with such political rowdyism or should i say "thackerayism" which only undermines our democracy, and by the way the world out there is changing and its changing ever faster like never before, economic growth seems to have become the most important gauging factor of a governments performance in the eyes of the "YOUNG INDIANS", and in such a world there is no place for "Thackerayism".
One cannot deny that with freedom of speech comes great responsibility so does accountability in a democracy, if the factors of accountability were to be applied to the deeds of shiv sena's party men this party should have been banned from contesting in the elections long time ago, but sadly we Indians suffer from a very demeaning attitude, an attitude that has not allowed us to mature into a sophisticated society even after 60 odd years of independence, When being on this side of the line helps us we don't question the ways and actions of the people who drew and defined that line for us, and that's so sickening and that's why people like dawood ibrahim came into existence, and 26/11 is still so fresh in our minds and we hear news about scams every other day.
So now whoever one is and whatever one might call oneself as one only is a hate monger in other words "a terrorist" who goes out there and beats people just because they are not from his state or country, When the government grants what the hindu citizens demand its called granting their rights, When the same government does things that grants the wishes of minorities it becomes "appeasement", well i don't deny that politicians use the powers vested in them as tool's to bring them more votes, one might have to question the ideologies of such politicians rather than being blunt in the way expressing ones dissent over a certain issue which seems like one has animosity towards minorities, Mr. Thackreys politics to be frank and fair was nothing but his version of the same tune that Dravida Kazhagam in Tamil nadu played when it raised slogans against the imposition of Hindi which worked so well in the late 60's and 70's, so lets just stop painting this man in colors that he doesn't deserve and lets just call a spade a spade, "He was a simple politician we Indians could have done better without", 'I wish him a good rest, may his soul rest in peace .... Let the idea of Hindu fundamentalism vain from here on or any religious fundamentalism for that matter, lets hope for a better future where religion, creed and statehood will be damned in front of our common national identity
- An Indian
If you had researched the following facts, may be your conclusion would be different? Then may be not as it is fashionable to be critical of Shiv Sena(SS).
- It was SS which helped the state get out of a very bad deal with Enron. A decade later, US would find out how crooked enron really was.
- It was under SS administration that infrastructure was added to mumbai. Perhaps that is the reason why the skyline is now dotted with skyscrappers
- It was SS with state's help which wacked migrant backed gangs which extored money from citizens of mumbai. Last of the gangs was eliminated around mid nineties. Could this explain those migrant's group's attitude towards SS?
- SS openly fought against caste/language based biz control a remnant of the british times. Large tracts of mumbai were gifted to the communities you mention by British in return for favors. Is that fair? Today's biz control is much more equitable and competitive. Perhaps this is the reason why mumbai is financial center and not a cotton mill that it was in 1966.
- And finally you may want to ask why everybody who hates SS so much still prefers to live/invest in mumbai? It is a liquid market, sell and get out.
As always, a precise and succinct sketch of Thackeray from the Economist, much like one of his cartoons! However, I believe this article failed to highlight one of the most absurd tragedies of Indian democracy. A man who was cited by a retired judge, Justice Shrikrishna, in his report for actively inciting murderous violence against citizens, was cremated with full state honours.
It will always be "Bombay" to me
The Marathi speaking people of Mumbai have genuine grievances that Thackeray exploited. The non-Marathi population of Mumbai refer to the Marathi speakers using a derogatory and racist term 'Ghati'. Very few non-indigenes bother to learn Marathi. Also, shops and other commercial establishments like banks in Mumbai used to have sign boards only in English, with Citibank being a prime example. One could not write bank cheques in Marathi. The only reason that these establishments grudgingly display their name boards in Marathi is only because of the Shiv Sena's threat of violence. Mumbai, like the rest of India, has scant respect for indigenous language and culture. Unfortunately, the only way this can be imposed seems to be strong arm tactics of Bal Thackeray and his Shiv Sena.
However beloved he may be to some masses, he had no place left in India or Mumbai. A few more years of life would force him to see his own decline. Good for him that he died at the height of his popularity. And good for Mumbai too that he is gone for good.
Shivsena - A street level view.
Growing up in a distant suburb of Dahisar of 1980's I had a chance to experience the Shivsena phenomenon first hand. Ours was a educated middle maharashtrian locality, there were a lot of youngsters in our area, life was easy paced, needs were low but so were avenues for going ahead in life. The boys in our area used to spend a lot of time idling around or playing cricket or volleyball. I was a schoolboy then, i used to hangout with them or go out on a swim or picnics with them. It was a very diverse bunch of individuals, some were good in academics, some in sport, some had technical acumen. But one thing was common to all of them - they were all frustrated, they all had the energy and testosterone of the youth but the avenues for expending it were limited - The shortages of the socialistic economy coupled with conservative outlook of the locality was probably at play.
So the frustrations of the youth had its effect and the boys took to drinking and smoking they formed gangs and started to indulge in skirmishes with similar gangs from the neighbouring areas. Soon the middle class junta (White collar types)started to look down upon them labeling them as goons. Precisely at this moment when the boys had earned a bad name, the Shivsena came calling. My elder cousin who had been active in student politics and was into organising sports and cultural events took the plunge. The boys saw an opportunity and rallied around my cousin. The first challenge was to win the BMC election, under the able leadership of my cousin and volunteer effort of the young boys the battle was won. This had a positive effect on the boys and soon they were organising sporting events, music and drama evenings, blood donation camps, counselling sessions for SSC students, planting trees, solving civic issues of the locality. The good work that was done in the subsequent years resulted in creation of infrastructure like - Sports associations, Auditorium, subways and bridges, Recreation grounds and gardens and a lot more; all durable assets for the residents.
The boys redeemed themselves, I could notice the change and positive outlook, most of them used this experience to get a job or start a small venture, all of them are now settled in life, happily married with school going kids. But for the white collar folks well - they remained the goons of the Sena. The Shivsena corporator who won the election with the effort of boys went on to become the Mayor of Mumbai.
I am doubly sure that this was not an isolated case of Shivsena acting as a catalyst for empowering the youth, hundreds of similar stories have happened across the suburbs and beyond. The 20 lac or so mourners that turned up had a reason to be there, they all experienced some form of empowerment.The white collar people and the elite media will never understand this phenomenon, for them shiv sena will remain a pariah - Sena after all has changed the power equation in Mumbai- the Pariahs are now the kings and the elites and their mouth pieces - the media cant stand it.
Dear Honest and Open, To get the flavour of an Economist obit, may I suggest you read another recent one: the passing away of Verghese Kurien? If you think that Mr Thackeray's obit was PRAISE of Mr Thackeray, you need to re-read it in slow progression - chew, masticate, swallow and then move on to the next para or sentence.
Please don't get offended by my suggestion. The Economist's obits are quite special. Among other things, they bring out the essence of the person even to those readers who had never heard of the person. Another beautifully worded recent obit: Betty Ford, the wife of US ex-president Gerald Ford. Economist obits are treats by themselves and I do not consider it ghoulish by saying so.
Better Obituary than that of Economist.
I would not quite agree with that idea. Despite all the various shenanigans pulled by the Shiv Sena, you will find that the Parsi and Gujarati-speaking communities (Hindu, Jain and Muslim) continue to dominate commerce, the South Indian community is thriving, the Muslim population remains intact and the Biharis continue to play an indispensable role in the functioning of the city. Furthermore, the incidence of intermarriage between communities has continued to grow at a relatively rapid rate among the middle class. As the article correctly points out, the percentage of so-called "native Maharashtrians" has actually declined as a proportion of Mumbai's total population.
Mumbai was swept up in a state of temporary insanity during the 1990s. However, people regained their composure quite quickly and the Sena has not won a state election in over a decade now.
History will prove that Bal Thackeray was nothing more than a cheap thug whose only legacy was to harm the productivity of Mumbai's businesses with his various bandhs and actions. It's a shame that such an inordinate amount of taxpayer money was wasted on this man's funeral.
He did something positive. But he sure could have done a lot more.
An supine State, which did not have the moral courage to charge Mr Thackeray after Justics Shrikrishna's report, provided the icing on the cake: a State funeral. By the way, does anybody know if a 51-gun salute was fired?
Apropos HunduKafir's comment. Gandhi will be remembered as a beacon of humanity for centuries to come. On the other hand, Thackeray will be consigned to the dustbin of history. If he is at all remembered, he will be reviled for his lack of decency and civilized behavior. He will be remembered as a brutal thug.
You are correct, we cannot "compare [Thackeray] to Gandhi". It would be better not to. It would be better to compare Thackeray to Hitler (whom he admired), or to Pol Pot, or Stalin, or Mao. He would be in good company.
We are ever reminded, that all we have to do when faced with tyrants, is simply to wait. Eventually people die. Praise the Lord for mortality. This is our great comfort.
I partly agree with you. But today can a Mumbaikar say without fear of retaliation by violent thugs what we are saying on an online forum - that Thacekrey was like a mafia don and the Shiv Sena is a thuggish Hindu fascist party. If you were a Mumbaikar, will you post it on Facebook or your blog, assuming this was your opinion? The other great tragedy is the waste of enormous potential. All this talk of Mumbai being India's Shanghai or even Hong Kong - it was actually possible if Mumbai was ruled by an able administrator instead of these political thugs who cannot think of development beyond collecting hafta and petty patronage networks for/among their supporters.
Mumbai has grown - but it is also one of India's most poorly governed cities- and these political thugs are responsible for that. They have no time for constructive ideas or addressing Mumabai's myriad problems of governance - life is tougher in Mumbai for common/poor people and more so than perhaps any other city in India. I am not optimistic about the future. You saw how the police caved in to the vandals from Shiv Sena over the incident of the arrest of the girls. Police are at the mercy of the local political thugs in India instead of it being the other way around. The police don't even think that it is their job to protect the rights of citizens or stand up for the rule of law - rather their job is to prevent "law and order situations".
Good riddance: he was a crook.
Balasaheb was a unique person; but then so was Hitler!!!
He stopped Mumbai getting Dawoodiesd... and getting in the hands of criminals ... backed by Pakistan .. The looters .. Gangsters.. and Extortionists were all from the same gang ... 10 years the locals could not breathe ... he came in as a messiah for the locals ... no wonder people adore him ... i wonder when the author calls the mob with names ... or may be he is the one too a paid stooge of the opponents ..

LG is asking a U.S. court to stop the DOE from forcing LG to remove Energy Star labels from certain of its refrigerator-freezer models by Jan. 2, 2010. LG Electronics USA filed a complaint against the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.
The LG complaint states that DOE should pursue an industrywide approach to new testing standards within the process established in law.
LG and the DOE reached agreement on matters relating to energy testing for French Door refrigerators in November 2008. The DOE does not dispute that LG fulfilled all its obligations under that agreement.
However, LG says the DOE now wants to change the testing standard announced in the binding November 2008 agreement and to require LG to follow a new test procedure that has not been clarified to LG or properly announced to the industry.
Any changes to the 2008 agreement affect the entire industry, LG says. Fair notice should have been provided to the entire industry and the notice should have been prospective, with no retroactive effect and should have provided sufficient time for comment and compliance with the new rule. This is what the law requires.
LG says it had been willing to work with the DOE to find a path that would meet shared goals of providing guidance to the industry and a public announcement of the procedure with sufficient information and a reasonable time to implement that protocol.

Back on June 29, I sat through some hearings before the House Judiciary Committee in which plaintiff's counsel in a series of qui tam contract fraud suits described their futile efforts to get the Justice Department to investigate cases in which contractors were fleecing the taxpayers of tens of millions of dollars. A senior Justice official then responded with a series of highly improbable excuses for the Department's inaction which left eyes rolling in the room. A former Justice lawyer seated near me, who now works with whistleblowers, said "Most people following this are going to get the impression that the Justice Department is not interested in rooting out fraud. Rather it's interested in shielding the fraudsters. And most people are right."
Today's San Antonio Express-News carries a story which fit perfectly into the pattern established at that hearing.
Barrington "Barry" Godfrey of Houston tried to get mega-contractor KBR to quit overcharging the government for thousands of troops he said the company never fed.
He alleges he was forced out for raising the issue, and that the Justice Department tried unsuccessfully to keep his allegations secret and then refused to join him in a whistleblower suit. Iowa businesswoman Beth A. Hanken says she sounded the alarm more than a year ago about the military's principal food distributor in Kuwait, Public Warehousing Co., over allegations it was taking kickbacks from a subcontractor that helped it inflate prices of food for U.S. troops. A Defense Department official, she claims, responded by forwarding her allegations to Public Warehousing, touching off legal threats that she believes were meant to silence her. The Justice Department this year declined to join a whistleblower lawsuit she filed.
The companies deny any wrongdoing, but Godfrey and Hanken are among a growing list of people who contend they were abandoned by the government when they stuck their necks out to protect taxpayers footing the bill for the war in Iraq. Alan M. Grayson, who represents Hanken, Godfrey and a handful of other whistleblowers in lawsuits about contracting fraud in Iraq, says the department is thwarting whistleblowers [not] helping them. He argues that the Bush administration sweeps many cases under the rug, obtains court orders to keep details from the public and that Justice Department lawyers threaten whistleblowers with dismissal of their cases or contempt of court simply for telling people what they know.
In prior conflicts, the Justice Department was a guard dog against contract fraud in war time. Today it's a guard dog, all right. But the interests it protects certainly aren't those of the public. Perhaps it sees its mission as protecting the contractors from scrutiny and oversight, at taxpayer expense.
Another well-known voice from the public watchdog community, Charlie Cray at the Center for Corporate Policy, puts it this way: "In the case of these fraud cases, it's taxpayers' interests that are on the line. Given how much they're willing to spend on the war and priorities of the administration in general, I see no evidence that they are willing to protect the interests of taxpayers when it comes to corporate fraud."

Coby Fleener is questionable for Sunday's game between the Indianapolis Colts and the Buffalo Bills, according to the Colts' official site. Fleener has not played since suffering a shoulder injury against the Tennessee Titans in Week 8.
Fleener was a limited participant in practice throughout the week, so it's unclear if he would play a full slate of snaps even if marked active. Dwayne Allen has played well as the Colts' full-time starter at tight end, with 14 receptions for 175 yards over the last three weeks.
Fantasy Impact: Fleener may very well play, but it's hard to imagine a scenario where he sees exclusive targets from the tight end spot. Allen has more than pulled his weight as a pass catcher, with a timeshare looking like the most positive outcome for Fleener owners.
Unless you are in a very deep league, Fleener should probably be kept out of your starting lineup, or off your roster altogether this week. Monitor his performance, and reconsider him for the Colts' Week 13 matchup against the Detroit Lions.

A Bristol man is accused of hiding a video camera in the women's locker room of a gym in Seekonk.
Seekonk police said Tuesday that 55-year-old Mark McVay will face charges of photo, videotaping or electronic surveilling and attempt to commit a crime, both misdemeanors. An arraignment date has not been set.
A man who said he was McVay told NBC 10 by phone that it was "a stupid joke that went bad."
The camera was found June 25 in the women's locker room of a 24-hour Planet Fitness gym on Route 44. Police said the suspect recorded himself placing the camera and that employees identified him as a member of the gym.
Police said anyone with additional information about the camera should call them because it may not be an isolated incident.

A protruding belly button most likely indicates a condition called an umbilical hernia, wherein the belly button pops outward because of a weakness in the muscles in or around the belly button, explains the International Health Insurance Bupa. Umbilical hernias happen to people of all ages, typically occurring in overweight people and in women during and after pregnancy.
An umbilical hernia happens when fat, fluid or intestine pushes through a weak spot in the belly, says WebMD. Umbilical hernias in infants often close on their own by the time a baby turns one year old. In adults, an umbilical hernia happens in people with certain conditions or health problems that cause pressure in the belly, such as pregnancy, obesity and having too much fluid in the belly.
The IHI Bupa notes that although an umbilical hernia is not dangerous in itself, it poses a risk of getting trapped, a condition which cuts off the blood supply to the hernia's contents. This causes life-threatening conditions, especially when the hernia becomes strangulated. It requires treatment to prevent the hernia from getting bigger and more uncomfortable. A hernia repair operation pushes the contents of the bulge back into the abdomen and strengthens the abdominal wall. An open surgery repair operation involves making a small cut bellow the belly button. For recurrent hernia, a keyhole surgery is usually recommended.
a first question for this one is, is the guy large in size? if so, it would be because of his size and would be no problem. If he is not, you may want to see a doctor :
You don't mention how old the baby is, but often it will be protruding while healing and then later appear flatter or more indented. Or it may be that your baby has an "outie
You belly button bleeding could be caused by an infection or even a legion inside your belly button. You should seek medical advice, it may be something that you can not cure on your
When it comes to matters of personal hygiene, having a clean belly button isn't necessarily the first thing most people consider, but they should: keeping the navel clean and dry

Gets the job done. I had just used the RM "parts finder" when I added this to my purchase so I didn't read the description that it was for meant only for Tusk Impact wheels. That said, the bearings, seals and c-clip are a direct fit for KTM oem hubs. Unfortunately the spacer tube will be 12mm too short as it was designed for a double drive side bearing and the oem KTM hubs use only one. Upside is you get a spare bearing out of the deal. Bearings are Taiwanese, decent seals.Read All Reviews

Insulation reviews in Brandon
The office staff were helpful in setting up the appointment and the crew arrived on time and went right to work. They completed the job in a timely manner and cleaned up after themselves. The men worked in difficult conditions in my attic and I'm glad they were so helpful and diligent. I would recommend this company to others."
superbly and comes with a lifetime warranty."
The customer service rep I spoke with on the phone for the initial quote, and then scheduling, was very polite. Easy to work with. The crew was here on time, friendly, worked fast. They blew insulation into the attic to bring it up to code. Very pleased with this company.
The work was hot, dirty, and physically very difficult. Much of it was performed in a crawl space that we well named as such with no more than 3 feet of vertical clearance. It was a big job, carrying over several days. The old insulation had been contaminated by ant infestation and had to be pumped out to a truck parked in the driveway before new insulation could be installed. At every point the supervisors and the workers were courteous, responsive and careful to clean up for themselves at completion of each phase of the job. We had originally contracted to pay 25% more than the final price, but we decided after work had begun that we didn't really need a drop-down ladder in the garage entrance to the crawl space. They then gave us the 25% credit for that part of the contract that we modified after signing the original. After one year, we have no problems to report.

HOUSTON (CBS Houston) A man is accused of continuous sexual abuse against an 11-year-old female relative which resulted in that relative becoming pregnant.
After CBS Radio Houston learned that the victim was related to the suspect, the name of the suspect will not be released.
According to investigators, the older male relative would routinely sneak into the child's home when her mom went to work and would allegedly force himself upon her.
The child told police that this older male relative would enter her apartment almost every day when no one was home. She further told police that she would beg him to stop but he would not comply with her wishes.
The abuse came to light when officials from the girl's school noticed that she was pregnant.
The man tried contacting the girl by text asking why she told on him and allegedly said he was going to kill himself. He now sits in jail charged with continuous sexual assault of a child and is being held on a $50,000 bond.
The suspect is scheduled for another court appearance Thursday and the young victim is expected to give birth very soon.

The Baylor Bears have seen a recruiting bump from the on-field success last season, culminating on Sunday with the monumental pledge of Fort Worth Southwest wide receiver Robbie Rhodes. Back in late January, that success helped reel in Bryan quarterback Chris Johnson, a dual threat athlete with an impressive frame and physical attributes who made some big-time throws on Saturday in College Station at the A&M Consolidated 7on7 SQT.
More than just the success last season, Johnson was impressed with the development of Robert Griffin III over the years. Clear evidence, in the opinion of Johnson, that Briles is an outstanding quarterbacks coach. An opinion, incidentally, shared by virtually every tapped-in observer of college football with some ability to evaluate the game. Briles gave Griffin the ability to thrive in Waco and Johnson believes that Briles will afford him the same opportunity for success.
Johnson said that his arm strength attracted the attention of the Baylor head coach, as well as his accuracy and consistency. The arm strength is ever apparent for the Bryan quarterback, but the latter two elements are sometimes missing. At his best, however, Johnson did show on Saturday the tantalizing upside that resulted in Briles taking something of a calculated risk on a prospect whose buzzword is developmental.
The relationship between the two was characterized as comfortable by Johnson for both the player and the coach during a recent summer camp, with Johnson calling Briles "excited" to have him there and get the chance to work with him a solid year before the big quarterback makes it to campus for good.
Johnson wasn't aware of any other quarterbacks being recruited in the class and said that he believes he's the guy for Baylor at the position in the recruiting cycle, which he is embracing as a leader, though he hasn't spent much time actively recruiting other prospects.
On the field, at least, Johnson had a chance to start establishing rapport with the newest Bear, Robbie Rhodes, just days before the wide receiver's commitment. As have recruiting analysts recently, Johnson had nothing but praise to lavish on Rhodes and his ability, calling him "very fast" and a "natural born-athlete" who can "get off the line quickly and get open at any time, anywhere on the field."
Receivers like that make things easy for the quarterback, according to Johnson.
"It doesn't matter who's on him," he opined of Rhodes. "He can get open and I just have to put it out there and let him go get it."
Sounds like a quarterback's dream.
Johnson ended his thoughts on Rhodes by saying that he would be a great addition.
"Hopefully he decides to come and join us," said the 6-5, 200-pounder.
Hope no more, big man -- you've found your future number one target.
The Baylor commit has a reputation for having issues with his accuracy, and that was the case early in the day, when it seemed as if he didn't know where the ball was going at times. He didn't have many issues in the short passing game, but had difficulty throwing over the middle and his touch was inconsistent on deep throws, often missing the mark by five yards or more.
Without the benefit of more in-depth film review, it's difficult to say if there's a mechanical issue causing the problems for Johnson, though his mechanics looked relatively clean to the naked eye. On the intermediate throws, the most likely issue is proper weight transfer, as locking the front leg and failing to get out over it can cause the rest of the body to drag through the release, which causes throws to go high of the intended target.
Still, there's no question that the tools are there -- Johnson probably has the best frame of any quarterback in a deep in-state class and looked every bit of 6-5 and well over his listed 195 pounds. Throw in long arms and Johnson is a guy who could project favorably at the wide receiver position, among others, depending on how much weight he could gain. In terms of tools, his arm strength is among the best in the class and something that can't be taught.
Two throws in the final game of pool play illustrated his upside and why he will likely stay at quarterback in college for Art Briles. Two long passes showed that he does have moments of good touch, as he threw touchdown passes in a short period of time, one of which traveled roughly 50 yards and hit his receiver deep in stride. It was truly a thing of beauty.
The Bears may have their quarterback of the future in the Johnson, but it will take him some time in college to get there, even working with a renowned quarterback coach like Briles.

Plato's Republic describes a society that is to be completely rational, based on his concept of the good life and developed to create and protect that sort of life within the context of a civil state. What Plato seeks in this dialogue is a definition of the perfect life and the perfect state to promote and sustain that life. The ideal state is a concept and not a reality, neither in Plato's time nor since. Much of what Plato embodies in the Ideal State is probably a reaction to imperfections in the government and society of his time. Plato lived in a time of turmoil and warfare, and he created a society that would be free of strife if it lived up to the ideal. It does not seem likely that many today would want to live in the society Plato proposes, and this may be because Plato ignores human nature. For his perfect society to work to protect the perfect life, it would have to be made up of perfect people. Plato tries to address this through education and other means, but in the final analysis his Republic must remain an ideal only, and to a great extent one man's ideal.
The question can be raised whether Plato intended his Republic to be more than an ideal. His Theory of Forms shows an awareness of the existence of qualities derived from the abstract and ideal Forms, with the object or quality in the real world being like the shadows on the walls of the cave in Book VII. What we see in the real world are but imperfect copies or imitations of the ideal, and the Repu

DfE: Schools have responded to challenge
A Department of Education spokesman said that the aim of their floor target was to boost standards and "end years of chronic under-performance."
Today's figures demonstrate that schools have responded to the challenge.
The floor standards we introduced were tougher and have improved performance.
Heads, teachers and pupils deserve credit for meeting the challenge head on.

AJACCIO, Corsica (AP) Ś Jan Bakelants pulled away close to the finish line to win SundayÆs second stage of the Tour de France and take the race leaderÆs yellow jersey for the first time in his injury-plagued career.
The 27-year-old Belgian made his move with a few hundred meters remaining and did enough to withstand a late charge from Slovak sprinter Peter Sagan for the biggest achievement of a frustrating career in which he turned professional at age 23.
ōItÆs difficult to believe what happened today, itÆs fantastic,ö said Bakelants, who had a knee operation earlier this year. ōToday it may be the first and last time I ever wear the yellow jersey.ö
He won in 3 hours, 43 minutes, 11 seconds, with Sagan and third-place finisher Michal Kwiatkowski one second behind him.
The 97-mile trek started from Bastia and, after four moderate climbs, finished in Ajaccio where Napoleon Bonaparte was born in 1769.
With the finish in sight, Bakelants found himself with five other riders and instinct told him that he may never get a better chance to make a name for himself.
ōI felt the others werenÆt going at 100 percent so I stayed back, but then I saw the peloton were closing in on me,ö the RadioShack rider said. ōWith 500 meters to go I had a look and I saw that I was still 100 meters clear of the peloton. I gave everything I had and I made it by one second. But that doesnÆt matter, I have the yellow jersey.ö
It has been a difficult career for Bakelants so far.
ōI had a lot of bad luck. IÆve had two operations. I fell at the Tour of Lombardy in 2010, I fractured my right knee and left elbow. You know, things like that take time to heal,ö he said. ōThis year I had bad luck as well, an operation on my right leg. I worked very hard to come back.ö
Prior to Sunday, his proudest achievement was off the bike Ś namely a bachelorÆs degree in bioscience engineering from the university of Leuven in Belgium.
ōI think thereÆs more in life than just cycling, But at the moment cyclingÆs in first place.ö he said. ōI think itÆs going to be a short night tonight, I donÆt think IÆll sleep much.
ōMy goal was to win a stage but I didnÆt think it would happen so fast.ö
German sprinter Marcel Kittel started the day in the lead after winning SaturdayÆs crash-marred first stage, but the rolling hills took their toll and he finished nearly 18 minutes behind in 169th spot.
ōItÆs a difficult stage and IÆm a sprinter, thatÆs why I suffer,ö said Kettel, who retained the sprinterÆs green jersey. ōI had goose bumps when I went up the hill. So many people were screaming my name. But we were expecting to lose it (the yellow jersey).ö
The dayÆs last climb up Cote du Salario was much shorter than the other ones but far steeper.
Spaniard Juan Antonio Flecha and Cyrille Gautier attacked up the final ascent, and Tour favorite Chris Froome then launched a surprise attack to go after Gautier when the Frenchman pulled away. But FroomeÆs attack fizzled out and the main pack swallowed him up.
The day after more than a dozen riders crashed, a small white dog ran out into the road some 2. 5 miles from the line and a potentially dangerous situation was narrowly avoided by a matter of seconds.
A bystander started to run after the dog and then changed his mind, and the dog just managed to reach the other side of the road before the marauding pack passed through.
Cavendish was in trouble all day, struggling to keep up as his teammates tried to drag him up the second climb up Col de la Serra.
However, French veteran Thomas Voeckler had a lot in reserve and chased the four early frontrunners.
Lars Boom and Ruben Perez Moreno were soon caught up, leaving just David Veilleux and Blel Kadri at the front.
VoecklerÆs attack reeled in Veilleux but then fizzled out quickly, leaving Kadri alone in the lead.
French rider Pierre Rolland attacked on the third climb Ś the dayÆs most difficult, a sinewy category 2 ascent up the Col de Vizzavona Ś as he chased his third Tour stage win. But the pack accelerated and chased him down.
Tony Martin of the Omega Pharma-Quick Step team recovered from several injuries to take the start. Martin was one of more than a dozen riders to fall Saturday with the German taken to the hospital after losing consciousness and sustaining bruising to his left lung, cuts to his hip, chest, left knee and shoulder, and his back.
He finished 192nd.
MondayÆs third stage is the last of the Corsican trio and is again hilly, with four moderate climbs dotted along the 145.5-kilometer (90-mile) route from Ajaccio to Calvi.

July 19, 2010, 8:58 PM — Web security vendor Websense Inc. is now offering a full-featured downloadable version of its data loss prevention (DLP) technology that IT admins should be able to download and install in less than an hour. But one industry expert warns that DLP is one of those unsolvable problems.
The new offering from Websense is built to address the hurdle of complex deployment that DLP technologies often require, said John Yun, senior product marketing manager for DLP with the Santiago, Calif.-based vendor. "You can download the product similar to a very tightly packaged software," said Yun. "That is just unheard of in the DLP world."
The downloadable version from Websense has many capabilities like Web security and URL filtering integrated in the back end, thereby making installation easy while reducing the physical footprint, said Yun.
Aside from addressing complexity, Yun said the tight integration of Web, e-mail and data means that IT admins get a greater degree of visibility into security logs. A typical log presents only the bare essentials like an IP address, but Yun said tight back-end integration offers more details like user identity, the user's manager and even the phone number.
"It may say the user attempted to send confidential data to this Gmail account," said Yun.
This also holds tangible value to the business leaders and helps the IT organization get buy-in for the technology, said Yun. "We also recognize that doing the back-end work of correlating the data takes a significant amount of time from a business perspective," he said.
Ottawa-based security consultant Brian O'Higgins thinks Websense's downloadable DLP model is an admirable and brave attempt at addressing DLP and he only hopes it will work. "DLP is an unbelievably huge problem I would put in the 'impossible to solve' bucket," said O'Higgins.
The proliferation of technology today means that employees can use myriad devices like an iPhone to snap an image of confidential data from a computer screen. "DLP doesn't stop that," said O'Higgins.
Given security breach incidents like that of Durham Health region in Ontario in December 2009, where an unencrypted USB device went missing, Yun anticipates the downloadable DLP model will gain traction among organizations wanting to prevent such an incident.
While the downloadable DLP model is useful for small-to-medium sized businesses who are often resource-strapped, Yun said large enterprises will also find value given the offering is full-featured.
Yun said Websense's downloadable DLP offering is also designed to be region-specific, for Canadian customers for instance, with policy wizards that can be customized for particular industries and regions.

The Grove's Got Some Growing Pains

Nature has no conscience; that's where art comes in. The land and lives of southeast Asia have been ravaged and will never be restored, no matter how many telethons, Oprah pleas or rock-concert benefits. But the latter have become a part of the pop tradition now, as familiar as reverb and groupies, and only the most self-absorbed punk would scoff at the good intentions. As financial gestures go, a fundraising concert at the Schlafly Tap Room will never approximate the Concert for Bangladesh, but the participants and sponsors have contributed just as much heart and far less ego to the event. The lineup covers a healthy cross section of the St. Louis scene, from the atmospheric indie rock of organizer Rebecca Ryan's longtime band, Languid, to the jammy Dogtown Allstars (who also moonlight as Gumbohead) to the open-minded groove of Urban Jazz Naturals, to the obscure twang of Hillbilly Thursday and the perky pop of Celia. No cause could be more daunting or vital than tsunami relief; no benefit could be more genuine, enjoyable or worthy.
Doors open at 6 p.m. Tickets are $10; all proceeds benefit tsunami relief; call 314-484-0387 for more information.
