Should New York City ban supersized sodas?
- 11:06 am Friday, June 1st, 2012 by Opinion Staff
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has proposed that the city stop movie theaters, street vendors, ballparks and others from selling big, sugar-filled sodas.
The ban would apply to drinks that are bigger than 16 ounces and have more than 25 calories from sugar or corn syrup in every 8 ounces. Drinks made mostly from milk or a milk substitute would be exempt. So would drinks that are at least 70 percent juice.
Mayor Bloomberg says he's just trying to fight fat. "The percentage of the population that is obese is skyrocketing," he said. "We've got to do something."

The Israeli parliament approved Wednesday by a vote of 71-23 a coalition agreement between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud party and the opposition Kadima party of Shaul Mofaz.
With 30-plus governments since independence (average length less than two years), Israeli politics rarely surprises. But Monday's agreement between Benjamin Netanyahu and Kadima leader Shaul Mofaz did precisely that.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his right-wing Likud party have agreed to form a unity government with the rival centrist political faction Kadima in a move that will put off elections until late next year and create one of the largest coalition governments in Israeli history.
Former Israeli foreign minister and opposition leader Tzipi Livni submitted her resignation from the Knesset Tuesday.
Faced with a choice that could tear apart his coalition government, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is considering holding early elections this fall, his spokesman, Mark Regev, said Sunday.
Tzipi Livni, Israel's former foreign minister, lost her fight to remain head of Kadima, Israel's main opposition party.
Incoming Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday his government will be a "partner for peace" with the Palestinians.
The Central Committee of Israel's Labor Party voted Tuesday to join a coalition government headed by Likud Party leader Benjamin Netanyahu.

The leaders of Israel's two largest parties jockeyed to form ruling coalitions Wednesday, each claiming a mandate to govern as unofficial election results indicated a virtual tie between them.

"I won!" Tzipi Livni said. My party got the most votes. "Today, the people decided -- Kadima," Livni announced at a victory rally Tuesday night.
Israel's two largest parties each claimed a mandate early Wednesday after exit polls showed a surprise first-place finish by the ruling Kadima party and dramatic gains by its conservative rivals.
Down to the wire. That's what the polling in Israel's election on Tuesday predicts: a tight race between Benjamin Netanyahu, former prime minister (1996-99) and leader of the conservative Likud party, and Tzipi Livni, the current foreign minister and leader of the centrist Kadimah party.
Benjamin Netanyahu's right-wing Likud movement maintains a slim lead ahead of next week's parliamentary elections in Israel, but Tzipi Livni's ruling centrist Kadima party still has a chance to pull out a victory, a win that would give it the first opportunity to form a new coalition government, according to polls published on Friday.

Food Photography: Low Country Boil
Posted by Jason on February 18, 2011
One of my favorite thing to do with barbecue products is to find fun and unique ways to use them outside the grill. Lately I've been playing around with Plowboys "The Jerk" rub and have become particularly fond of it's flavor on boiled seafood. The herbs and spices in The Jerk add a fantastic heat to our already delicious Low Country Boil recipe. And with my smokers being held hostage by the aftermath of Snow-pocalypse 2011, indoor cooking with barbecue flavors was just what I needed!

Here at Field Gulls we've had discussions on just about every aspect of football, including having discussions about when we can or should have discussions about Fantasy. Well, this IS the place. You can, if you must, add fantasy talk in additional game threads, but be warned, someone may be watching, and they may be mocking. Here, you have free rein to talk your team's reign or your rain of injuries.
Something to note, and this should be a true football fan's golden ticket when it comes to heaven and hell and the voiding of the warranty on your soul.
The first rule of Fantasy Football, you do NOT root for players against your favorite team.
The second rule of Fantasy Football, you do NOT root for players against your favorite team.
On this site, never cheer vocally against the Seahawks due to your fantasy roster. Statements like, "Well, at least I have Larry Fitzgerald on my fantasy team" (if) he was scorching the Hawks will unleash the hounds of hell upon you. Please don't be that one bastard playing the "Don't Come" line at the craps table. Not only will you bring bad mojo to everybody, but you'll likely get verbally harassed, if not banned. You are a Seahawk fan, you are not "that guy" you are one of OUR guys—so act like it!
Rants and Ramblings.
I have a confession to make. I might not be the best person to be giving fantasy advice. I haven't won a fantasy championship in three years. I feel a little like Dan Marino in around '85. You know he believed he was going to make it back to the promised land and win one, and he never again got close… Speaking of which, don't you feel a little like Dan Marino is about to wrap his isotoners around someone's neck the next time they mention how great a leader and winner and talented of a quarterback is Ben Roethlisberger?
However little I've won recently, I do believe I put together good teams. I think my rationale is sound… it's just… the luck part of fantasy football and poker seem to fall away from me.
Fantasy football is an endeavor in hope, and all you can do as fantasy GM is put the best possible pieces together and pray they stay healthy and perform up to expectations. Well, isn't that interesting. Sounds a little like the same thing that a real GM has to deal with. So the next time you have some commentary about Ruskell's inability to put together whatever aspect of the Hawks you find lacking, ask yourself this—are you in first place in your Fantasy League, a place far more inherently easy to win than the NFL? If not, perhaps your methodology for expectation in the Hawks is a little off base, eh?
Let's talk a little about "Luck" as it pertains to fantasy football. I completely believe there are times where you make your own luck, but we have to be cognizant that there are times where things just break bad. One team in my keeper league has ZERO luck. Two weeks ago, he made a blockbuster, trading Matt Forte for Roy Williams, a 2nd round pick, and a RB outperforming Forte with a less attractive contract, Ronnie Brown. One week later, Brown goes down, lost for the year to injury. This is the 2nd time this has happened to him, as two years ago he traded for Cadillac Williams the week before he blew his ACL. Guy just needs to stay away from ex-Auburn teammates when trading for running backs.
I'll be sure to let you know if he trades for Brandon Jacobs, since Jacobs started his college career in that same Auburn backfield…
Continuing on the "luck" tangent, listen to this team, in a .5 ppr 10 team league. (PPR= Point Per Reception)
QB - Carson Palmer, Matt Ryan
RB - AP, Ray Rice, Kevin Smith, Steve Slaton (and a recently picked up Larry Johnson on a flier.)
WR – Greg Jennings, Anquan Boldin, Percy Harvin, Nate Burleson
TE – Dustin Keller (just picked him while dropping a fading Todd Heap)
K – Stephen Gostkowski
D – Cincy.
Looks pretty good, right? Great RB's, a solid QB, talented WR's, best kicker in the game and a top 5 defense.
Yeah, well, I'm 4-6 and in 8th place. How is that even possible, that this team can be below .500 and on a three game losing streak?!? 6 teams make the playoffs, just have to hope I can get hot and pull an NC State tourney run. Survive and advance, survive and advance. The league playoffs aren't until week 14, but mine start this week. Hope my team gets the memo.
The Picks.
The YOU IDIOT start from last week: NYJ D vs. Jacksonville. Apparently I didn't get the memo that the NYJ D hasn't done anything since about week 5, and Jacksonville has done nothing but get better offensively since the shellacking our Hawks put on them.
Dump of the Week: NYJ D. They've gone down hill from a modest to solid start, to a matchup start. Now with only Buffalo and TB left as potential matchup starts, there are better week to week D's available. Let them go and don't pick them back up!
The "You've got the touch" Reach Start of the Week: Beanie Wells against St. Louis. If you are ever going to start him, St. Louis is the team to do it against. Otherwise, might as well shelf him the rest of the way.
The bad idea play of the week: Hate to say it, but it's our boy Matt Hasselbeck. Minnesota's given up a ton of passing yardage this year, but most of it has been mid to deep routes, not check downs. For Matt to have a big game, his wide receivers are going to have to kill it in the YAC categories. Not to mention we're at Minny, which means snap count/audible issues and of course, Jared Allen coming around the corner hard and fast. Not good.
And, because someone commented in a thread a while back that AP might be primarily a product of his line, not that he is a great back, but only that he is "pretty good" or some such. Here is a first half of 2009 highlight reel in HD. Guy is crazy good. Check 1:42 for a little Pittsburgh beat down (how can that NOT make a Seahawk fan happy, even if it wasn't our guy handing out the beat down.
We get to watch the best back in the league this week… may the Hawks contain him.

Robert Plant Alison Krauss Youtube Black Dog
A youtuibe of Robert Plant and Alison Kraus., an interesting combination, Plant the sensational voice of Zeppelin and Krauss the very accomplised fiddle player and bluegrass vocalist. And add to the combination the classic song Black Dog, and there's something to think about.
Although this tune doesn'tfeature acoustic guitar, what I found interesting was the guitar line which was originally played by Jimmy Page in the seventies, is played on the banjo. It sounds retty sweet.
You may find this interesting also, Jimmy Page at 14 years old. Jimmy Page Youtube

12 Days of Toddler Christmas
For the past few years, I've always hosted Bower Power's 12 days of Christmas. It was grand fun. Like the kind of fun you have when you are with a room full of your closest friends and you are all getting tired but totally hopped up on Pixie Sticks and can't stop laughing for even the essentials – like bathroom breaks or breathing.
But this year I had to say no. I knew that I'd rather spend that precious crafting/decorating/holidazing time with Will. I'd rather be doing activities that put a big dimply smile on his face. I'd rather spoil him rotten with all that Christmas effort. I'd rather be gripping this fleeting time as tightly as I can. I'm sure that every mother out there feels that way with the recent tragedy of Sandy Hook. We all hold our babies a little tighter and a little longer and want to soak in the joy of having them in our arms while whispering up tearful prayers for those families that are hurting. This is just a way I can intentionally invest this holiday season in the things that matter – spending time and making memories with the little loves in my life.
In our living room, I set up twelve jars. Our 12 days of Christmas are housed in leftover spaghetti sauce and pickles and roasted red pepper jars. Jesus would be proud. My best tip for cleaning jars is to wash out the old food particles (unless you are saving them for later) then soak them in hot water to soften the label. Use a little WD40 and a scraper to remove all the sticky stuff. The ink stamped on the jars (like the expiration date, etc.) comes off with a Magic Eraser.
Each of our jars has a little ornament in it and a 'special treat' card. The cards say different things…activities like make a gingerbread house or deliver neighbors gifts or goodies like a penguin shaped chocolate treat or a christmas bell.
Around each jar is a little tag (they came from the mothership – Martha at Staples)…Will gets to draw a piece of paper with a number out of a bowl…and then we find the matching jar to see what we are gonna do that day. See? Matching. That's totally like learning.
The ornaments make me so happy. They were my mom's when we were growing up and I got to put them on the tree as a little girl. Will is fascinated with them. Who wouldn't be fascinated with a red mini monkey with pink cheeks?! Seriously?!
I spraypainted the lids. The Ragu logo didn't match the Vlasic lid…it had to be done.
Will did his first day and got a package of glow bracelets (most of the purchases were from the dollar store – so this cost me no more than $12). His special treat card also said "read in your tent"…he got weirdly excited and started growling like a tiger. that's completely normal for him.
We threw a bunch of blankets and pillows in the teepee (Will calls it his tent) and picked out some books and settled in with a couple christmas cookies. The cookies were Weston's suggestion. Noone can argue with a newborn.
Will's spectacles…
The activity only lasted about the length it takes to read two books (and eat two Santas) but it was squishedupfun (yes, all three of us were squeezed in there) that I'll always remember.
I think Will is thrilled too because now he wakes up and asks for his special treat almost immediately.
So are you guys doing little special things each day to get into the Christmas spirit? Any advent activites? Or daily events? Or yuletide toddler fun that is putting the real joy into this holiday season? I'd love to hear all about it.
December 19, 2012
katie, i love this idea, and i love this post. our girl is just 5 months and i am thinking about how we can establish fun, Christ-centered Christmas traditions for our growing family in the coming years. i'm bookmarking this idea for next year and saving jars in the meantime! my husband has special ornaments and other Christmas goodies that are special to him, and those things remind him of his childhood and bring back sweet memories. i bet your little one will remember this for years! beautiful.
December 19, 2012
Fantastic, easy idea! Your jars looks adorable!!
December 19, 2012
I love this idea and the fact that you have them out to see and enjoy! I would really love a list of all of your activities/treats that you gave him. Just 'cause I'm super nosy and have no original ideas : )

Kristi permalinkDecember 19, 2012
love how yours turned out! so cute. i did 12 days with my hubby this year for the first time. i made envelopes with the numbers on them, then put either a note from a family member or friend and/or a little rhyming card that explained either a little gift or activity. so far we've decorated christmas cookies, made a doggie paw print ornament, he got a note from my parents and his, an itunes giftcard, etc. it's been fun getting them together and having him open something each day! love the acts of kindness idea up there and will definitely want to do something like this if we're blessed with a little one someday merry christmas bowers!

That's such a great idea. My aunt bought each of her grandchildren and great-neices and -nephews the Jacquie Lawson Alpine Advent calendar. It's been fun to do every night before bed… it's also a great motivator to get ready for bed and brush her teeth.

A 45-year-old man turned up at a Portland hospital with two gunshot wounds early Tuesday.
William Rasmussen is expected to survive after arriving at Portland Adventist Medical Center. He was transported to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center to be treated.
Rasmussen told police he was in the parking lot of an apartment complex in the 10500 block of Northeast Fremont Street when he was approached by a gunman who fired shots for no reason.
Witnesses called police after hearing shots and seeing several cars leave the area.
That led officers to respond around 1:30 a.m., but they didn't find any victims at the scene. It wasn't until they received a call from Portland Adventist Medical Center that they learned Rasmussen was the shooting victim.
Rasmussen could not provide police with any suspect information.
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call 503-823-0400.

ALBANY, N.Y. – The University at Albany Police Department is searching for a man who entered a female student's dorm room Sunday night.
The student told police she woke up around 5:40 a.m. Sunday to find an unknown male in her room engaging in a lewd act. The student yelled out, and the man ran from her room.
Police informed students of the incident through an e-mail and have increased patrols at the Uptown campus. The incident has some students concerned.
"If I was in that position, I'd be scared," one student said.
Police are not releasing the name of the dormitory involved, but they did say there was not a forced entry leading police to urge students to keep their doors locked.
Some students admit they don't always keep their doors locked.
"In the older dorms, they leave it unlocked so friends can come in," a student said.
Other students like Francesca McGuire, however, said they do not want to take any chances.
"I definitely lock my suite door," she said. "All my suitemates lock our doors."
Police said there are no suspects at this time.

Bouquets and other gifts from the heart
Our hearts are all broken with the agony of pain, not only physical, but emotional, as we reflect on the lives of fellow humans 200 miles south of us whose homes and belongings were shredded inside of 30 seconds during the devastating March 2 tornado outbreak.
As I view the agonizing cries of those searching through belongings that were completely intact when they left for work on Friday, I keep asking myself, "What would I search for first if our home was suddenly swept into a pile of rubbish such as we've viewed on the news?"
It's not hard to compile a list of things I would care about the least – the television, computer, golf clubs, libraries of CD games and popular music, CD player, car and things that might lean towards a bit of prestige.
But what would bring me to tears as I clasped a "found item" that was fully connected to my heart?
Pictures would be near the top of the list, especially those of the children, special family outings, childhood trips and pictures of family members who are no longer with us.
Years ago in my childhood, my parents embraced a family who had lost everything in an Easter Sunday fire, including the only picture that existed of a child that had a passed in infancy. Somehow, my mother was able to search and find the negative in a photo warehouse in Chicago, and the picture was recaptured, no easy task in 1964 when camera equipment was much more primitive.
While there are countless items that connect with family members, the children and loved ones, there is no question in my mind that certain items stand out in a heart-tugging serendipity of their own.
One would be a special paperweight that sits on my dresser. It says, "To Dad from Sandi," and has some hand sketching that immediately became some of the most beautiful artwork ever created when my daughter handed it to me as a special handmade gift when she was in elementary school.
Another is a plaque with a picture of a hand and a simple but profound poem printed beside it. It was the size of Jason's hand when he was 5 years old. I had done the same thing in the old Geneva Grade School in art class when I was about his age. Both still exist, my hand as had been preserved by Mother and his hand as a family heirloom hanging over the landing of our stairway.
A third item is an adult gift, woven in picture/plaque form by daughter, Julie. It hangs on the wall by my desk in the church study. It reads, "The Prayer of Jabez, Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, 'Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.' And God granted his request. I Chronicles 4:10."
It has often been the source of silent meditation when I've needed some away time to sit in the quietness of my study and fixate on its message.
Of course, there are all of the cards that Joyce and I have given each other over the years; even the letters we wrote to each other in college are still in existence. Now I understand why my mother sent encouragement cards several times a week to those who melted her heart for one reason or another. I understand why my father built a sofa for us as a wedding gift and why my grandmother was always crocheting around handkerchiefs to be given on special occasions.
And I remember my own reaches, the simple tools I bought my dad, the times that I gathered fragrant bouquets from the lilac tree behind our house, placed it in a Ball jar, watered it and placed in on the table to be enjoyed during the evening meal. I meant it with all of my heart when I wove together two paper plates with yarn and called it a letter holder which I presented to retired missionaries I had great admiration for.
I wasn't surprised when I searched through items in the old home place that I found post cards I had written to my parents from church camp and to my grandmother during family vacations with my parents.
This train of thought was triggered when I read a Facebook entry from a dear friend. It stated, "Every spring when I see the first dandelion sprout, it always takes me back to my childhood when I'd very strategically go to the park across from my Gram's house and pick her (what I viewed) as the most beautiful bouquet of flowers. It wasn't until my adult years that Gram told me that those flowers made her sneeze and itch to high heaven ... but that she loved my gesture and never had the heart to toss them. I so miss being able to pick you those flowers, Gram, and every spring reminds me how blessed I was to have Grandma, who loved the 'weeds' I picked for her."
For me, too, it brought back memories of the times when, as a child, I would visit the local jewelry store and spend money I had worked for to purchase broaches and jewelry for my mom and grandma, and a sleeve of golf balls for my dad.
I suppose some would look at this column like a dandelion, but to others, who understand the heart with which it was written, just maybe it would be retrieved and kept as it was intended ... a bouquet of flowers to all of those who take the time to understand my heart.

MINNEAPOLIS, Thursday, January 23rd, 2014 – Minnesota-based Geronimo Energy and Dublin, Ireland-based Mainstream Renewable Power announced today Geronimo's acquisition of Mainstream's Green River Wind Farm located in Whiteside, Lee and Bureau Counties in Illinois.

What hardware do you use to record? analog, digital?

- OpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 8/31/2014I have been to many Maggiano's and usually find them quite nice for groups. This however was a terrible experience. The service was horrible, the food was cold, and our waiter never returned to our table after bringing our drinks. We finally got the manager to our table and he apologized and took the entrees off our bill, but after he left our table we still could not find anyone to give us our check. Finally we tracked down our waiter, paid our check and left. Perhaps it was just a bad night for the kitchen and our waiter. Nonetheless, there are plenty of restaurants in Atlanta and we will be headed elsewhere for our next casual Italian group meal.
- NYC visitorMFMFDined on 8/31/2014Great food everyone was very nice and we were seated right away! We my wife and I went on a Sunday at 6pm, within 30 min the place was packed and by the time we left crowds of people were waiting to be seated! We never felt rushed or ignored. Thank you Maggs we will be back!I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/30/2014Coming from out of town for a football weekend this turned out to be a great after game hangout. Great atmosphere, food, and service!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good FoodOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/30/2014Everything was good. We had 6:15 reservations. Whole party arrived by 6:18 seated right away. Noodles ok but everyone agreeded food was very good. Would recommend. Not too pricey either.Special Features:
- Great serviceTonyVIPDined on 8/29/2014The hostess, (Pam ?) was absolutely amazing. She went over and above anyone's expectation to make sure our table was cleared and reset as fast as possible then came back and checked on us. I thought she was a manager but apparently not yet !! She made that first impression so wonderful that nothing else mattered - but our dinner was great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good ItalianJeffDined on 8/29/2014We were in Buckhead for a weekend and the kids wanted Italian. We yelped maggionos and decided we would give it a try. It's at a nice location and is very nice inside. Service was excellent and we were seated immediately. The spinach and artichoke dip was very good, but I don't like the ultra hard bread wafers they serve it with, I instead used the excellent Italian bread they serve at the table. The kids got spaghetti with meatball for one and meat sauce for the other, my wife got the chicken Marsala, and I got the rigatoni D something...it's one of their "specialities" and is rigatoni served with chicken and sautéed mushrooms and onions in a Marsala cream sauce. Everything was very good and the cookies at the end were great! Wirth a visitSpecial Features:
- Pre made mealsLmitchVIPDined on 8/27/2014After reading the reviews I thought I had found a great place for a basic Italian meal. I was so disappointed when our food came and it was obvious it was pre made. I had Parmesan encrusted fish. It was mushy and had no flavor. One dining partner had lasagna which wasn't heated all the way through and the third had pasta and which was very ordinary. When it was time to leave we were told that we had a pasta to go with our meal, which I thought was strange. We go an Alfredo, which was already refrigriated. We could have gotten this food in the frozen section. On, the other had, it seemed many people liked this kind of dining. There were a lot of people eating there and they all seemed quite happy with their doggie bags.Special Features:
- Best waiter ever!!!!!!!!luvmypitcherVIPDined on 8/24/2014My family and I visited Maggianos on Sunday August 24. We had 5 adults and a 2 and 1/2 year old. Everyone was so nice to him. He is very outgoing and everyone he looked at interacted with him. Our waiter was outstanding! He went above and beyond to make sure that our food arrived quickly. He also made certain that our little guy was happy throughout the meal. All of the staff was attentive from the moment we arrived and our waiter made my grandson a special dessert. The waiter was personable sharing stories about his family and making suggestions for food selection. Our experience was terrific!Special Features:
- GOOD DATE..OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/23/2014It was a great place for a date..Food was great, best New York stake, ambient was good service was good..overall experience (EXCELLENT).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bachelorette Party DinnerJmf11VIPDined on 8/23/2014I had a group of 15 for a bachelorette party and this was an awesome spot. We stayed across the road at The W so we just had to walk across for dinner. We had been having cocktails at the pool all day so there were a few girls that were kind of loud, so they sat us in a more secluded area on the back patio that was the perfect spot for us. Everyone enjoyed the food and atmosphere!Special Features:
- Excellent!!StephenDined on 8/23/2014As always had a great meal and fantastic service at Maggiano's! Love this place!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Awesome experienceNadsierrDined on 8/23/2014Great atmosphere for romantic dining. Waiters had knowledge of the menu, very polite and catered to our needs. I would recommend this location to any and everyone I know for family, friends and an overall good time! Thanks for this experience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Birthday CelebrationgeorgiagirlDined on 8/23/2014Enjoyed dinner for my birthday with family. The waiter was excellent and we all enjoyed the lemon cookies with candles for dessert.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- less than stellarsimpledudewholikesfoodDined on 8/23/2014Took a party of 9 family members to celebrate my sons' birthday ... standard spaghetti and meatballs for kids was fine ... salad entree seemed to have frozen shrimp and was less impressive than if I had made it myself to eat in front of the couch ... couldn't find server to get check at end of meal ... no valet for parking, just the stand out front - unmanned ... more than anything they seemed to be hitting on about 5 cylinders ...
- Outstanding experienceGood2eatDined on 8/22/2014I went for the first time a couple nights ago. It was the best restaurant I've ever eaten at. Everyone was super nice and was good to cater to your every need. It's not cheap but it's worth it because you get so much food. It can be a bit noisy cause it's busy. But when you make the reservation they seated us right when we walked in, and it was on a Friday night at 6:45. I will definitely come backSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Love the restaurant!StarrDined on 8/22/2014Perfect service from Cheryl. It was like having. Long time friend serving us that knew what would make our dining experience as great as possible. Food always good at Buckhead location. Best martinis!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- cbtbOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/21/2014Dinner was for a birthday celebration and the Buckhead Maggiano's staff made everyone in our party happy!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great time!Foodie1Dined on 8/16/2014Great restaurant, great atmosphere. Would recommendSpecial Features:
- Two visits. Both great!SGriffin2013VIPDined on 8/16/2014We've dined twice so far and plan to return the next time we're passing through Atlanta. Great food, wine, service, and atmosphere!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent Food but Service OKFoodieQueenDined on 8/16/2014Celebrated a teen's birthday. The food was wonderful. The service was good but not the best. First, our table of 10 was much too close to a table for 2. Our chairs constantly bumped and we could easily hear their conversations. Second, not everyone asked for water but it was provided. This created a crowded table, so when our appetizers came, the waiter almost knocked over the water glasses as we all at the table shuffled to catch them. He then literally dropped the plates onto the table - perhaps because he was very busy or maybe bc they were hot. Nevertheless, to not apologize was offensive. Third, when we asked for seconds, it took awhile to get them. Finally, I asked for sugar w/my coffee, which was not hot, but none was ever provided.Special Features:
- FamilyeventHappyexperienceDined on 8/15/2014As usual our family celebration at Maggiano's was wonderful! We always go there to celebrate special events and have never been disappointed. I feel like I am visiting a big, nice, cordial Italian family that allows us to use their dining room to enjoy a family dinner.Special Features:
- OptionsTammyDined on 8/14/2014What I like about Maggiano's is being able to eat family style or ordering from the menu. Taking people to Maggiano's is fun and you don't even have to dress up. It is like eating at home if you eat family style and you can all discuss the food together as if you cooked it, but your kitchen remains clean. You also always have leftovers and you can enjoy the experience all over again when you eat your leftovers. The To-Go containers are also so helpful in telling you exactly how you need to warm up your particular dish for optimum enjoyment! When we told our waiter that some of our party had never been there before, he provided by way of the chef, a tasting of an appetizer which we ended up ordering more as everyone liked it so much.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always just rightStephfromViningsDined on 8/14/2014.... luv this place! Food is always fresh, hot and cooked just right. The best is their eat something now, and take an order home..... my only suggestion would to add more items to the list of choices.Special Features:
- Group OutingOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/13/2014We went to Maggiano's for lunch to celebrate a new hire. They have plenty of room to accomodate all 8 of us. The service was fantastic as was the food, as usual.Special Features:
- kownby45Dined on 8/9/2014There was 10 of us that came out for a friend's anniversary (30) and we had a wonderful time as usual. This is where we come each year for anniversary's.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Awesome!!!PratMDined on 8/8/2014This place never disappoints me. Great food, ambience n service. Though i would suggest to reserve table in advance. My fav place in buckhead.Special Features:
- Great Experience!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/8/2014This was for our anniversary and it was a revisit for us after 8 years. I requested a table that was near the piano player and I got just that. I arrived a little early for our reservation but they took us right back. Milton was a great server and the entire experience was nice and felt special from start to finish.Special Features:
- Daughter's Birthday LunchOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/8/2014We were there to celebrate my daughter's 16th birthday along with 4 of her close friends. It was a total of 7 in our party. My only complaint was they had us shoved into a corner with a small table. It would have been nice to have been seated at a nicer table especially since I informed them that it was my daughters birthday. Also, I purchased a dessert that I requested be brought out with a candle in It; however, they brought the cake without the candle then came out 5-10 minutes later with 2 candles on top of a few cookies. Food was great but, the table and cake situation was a little disappointing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Read the reservation requestdwatDined on 8/7/2014the reservation request was for my wife and I to celebrate our 8th anniversary. I had requested a table for two in a low traffic area, and eight Roses. neither request was fulfilled and we will not return here for a romantic dinner. This is the first restaurant that I made reservations at for our anniversary that failed to follow through. Very disappointed.Special Features:

- Leah SearsOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 7/29/2014Terrible! And this was the second time. They care about volmne, not individual customer service. It took us over one hour and a half to be served. I will never go there again, nor will I recommend this to another customer
- Great food and serviceHuntsvilleALvisitorDined on 7/28/2014We do not live in Atlanta, but when we visit we always try to make it to Maggiano's. The last visit included my family of 5 and my brother's family of 4. The staff was extremely accommodating and made our meal very enjoyable. The menu has something for everyone, including the children. The food, service and experience were all A+.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ServiceTrendygal101Dined on 7/28/2014The service was phenomenal. Our waitress was so kind and patient with us. She took the time to explain certain things on that menu to us when we were indecisive. She made me feel special and everything was just phenomenal!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Selections and PortionsJimmyDined on 7/27/2014The food was good and there is plenty from which to choose. Particularly like the "eat one and take one home" for another meal. Enjoyed sitting near the piano and will return when the piano player is in house.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- LoudItallianJanDined on 7/26/2014The food is great, but the noise level gets pretty high. Be prepared.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Start! Weak Finish!DisappointedDined on 7/26/2014Started off good, but then our server went MIA for long periods of time. Didn't get my drink until my dinner came. Bread came after we asked for it towards the end of dinner. Our dinner came like 5 minutes after we ordered it and weren't even done with our appetizer. Food was good! Nothing to "Wow" about!

(NASDAQ: DSCO) today announced that it has been awarded the final $1.9 million of a $2.4 million Fast Track Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Grant from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This award will provide support for the ongoing phase 2a clinical trial for AEROSURF®, Discovery Labs' investigational combination drug/device product. AEROSURF is in development to provide KL4 surfactant therapy through nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) for respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in premature infants. Discovery Labs was notified in 2010 that it was eligible for consideration under this grant program, and previously received $580,000 to support development activities related to its capillary aerosol generator technology. The company expects to utilize the $1.9 million during 2014.
AEROSURF could potentially allow for the administration of KL4 surfactant to premature infants without invasive endotracheal intubation, and may enable the treatment of a significantly greater number of premature infants who could benefit from surfactant therapy but are currently not treated.
Discovery Labs is enrolling patients into a phase 2a clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of aerosolized KL4 surfactant administered to premature infants 29 to 32 weeks gestational age who are receiving nCPAP for respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), compared to infants receiving nCPAP alone. This study is as an escalating dose study evaluating three dose levels of aerosolized KL4 surfactant and is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2014.
About Discovery Labs
Discovery Laboratories, Inc. is a specialty biotechnology company focused on advancing a new standard in respiratory critical care. Discovery Labs' technology platforms include a novel proprietary KL4 surfactant, a synthetic, peptide-containing surfactant that is structurally similar to pulmonary surfactant, and proprietary drug delivery technologies being developed to enable efficient delivery of aerosolized KL4 surfactant. Discovery Labs' strategy is initially focused on neonatology and improving the management of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in premature infants. Discovery Labs believes that its RDS product portfolio has the potential to become the new standard of care for RDS and, over time, to enable the treatment of a significantly greater number of premature infants who could benefit from surfactant therapy but are currently not treated.

In quite possibly the league's most erratic backfield situation, Felix Jones has regained the lead for carries in Dallas.

Sierra Wireless AT&T Unite
Reviewed by swbca (Currently owns)
Great for serving 10 WiFi clients, or even better when integrated into a home network to serve unlimited clients.
We have a remote home with no other internet service. By linking this unit with a WiFi connection to a Buffalo "WiFi to Ethernet Converter" we can connect out home network including 2 other Wireless access points and wired desktop computers.
The DHCP server in the ATT Unite Hotspot will hand out a virtually unlimited number of addresses to clients, (we have had over 20) even though it only registers the Buffalo device as a WiFi client.
We just have to make sure that we don't do video streaming and other bandwidth intensive activities to stay within the 5G monthly limit. Fortunately the cost for going over is only $10.00 per Gig, which is a reasonable charge.
Only complaint. The touch screen has no access password or pattern. Any kid can break our network if he pushes a couple of touchscreen buttons on this unit. Browser access has a password . . . why not touch-screen access ?

Just when I think people can't sink any lower, when I think I have heard it all; someone comes along and transforms what has happened by doing the nicest of things for a complete stranger for no apparent reason.
It becomes contagious and makes the world news. People helping people, humanity comes through once more.
acts of kindness performed for no other reason than being kind. A
simple act of kindness that warms the heart and ignites the spirit just
when it is most needed. The whole thing reminds me of one of my prayer
companions. St. Therese "The Little Flower".
She spent her
entire life living out the meaning of kindness. Somehow she knew the
saving power in these little acts she preformed day by day; hour upon
hour, spending all the minutes she could to make someone's day brighter,
easier, and better.
Taken from letters and prayers that she wrote
we can clearly see how she lived out her life always trying to please
Jesus by putting others before herself.
"Miss no
single opportunity of making some small sacrifice, here by a smiling
look, there by a kindly word; always doing the smallest right and doing
it all for love."
"A word or a smile is often enough to put fresh life in a despondent soul."
whole strength lies in prayer and sacrifice, these are my invincible
arms; they can move hearts far better than words, I know it by
Anyone can do it. Random acts of kindness do not have to involve money, or expertise, or physical labor; it just has to involve the movement of our heart.
When we put our mind to it the pumping actions of our heart can illuminate the world.

OAKLAND -- Coco Crisp returned to the Athletics' lineup Sunday after missing six games with a strained right calf. A's manager Bob Melvin was ecstatic about it."We're all obviously excited to have him back," Melvin said. The A's could have used his production of late. Crisp is hitting .364 (24-for-66) over his last 17 games and has been a catalyst, along with Jemile Weeks, at the top of the lineup. He leads the American League with a career-high 37 steals. Crisp is also a career .545 hitter against Matt Harrison, who started for the Rangers on Sunday. With Crisp on the shelf, Melvin was working with a thin bench. That was one of the reasons the club called up Brandon Allen, who has the ability to play in the outfield as well as first base. Allen, whom the A's acquired in a trade with the Arizona Diamondbacks last month, will work with A's coach Tye Waller on outfield play for the next few days. The addition of Allen prompted the question of playing time to evaluate younger players. Melvin said it was too early to consider. "We have a four-man bench, so there aren't that many decisions to make," Melvin said. "This isn't September, so we're not at that point. Right now, we're going to put out the best lineup."
Pennington OK following Bell's palsy flare-up
OAKLAND -- A's shortstop Cliff Pennington was walking around the clubhouse with his right hand covered in a bandage that looked like a cast on Sunday, raising concerns of his availability.Not to worry, said Pennington, it was just ice -- a precautionary measure. He was in the lineup on Sunday. Pennington was out of Saturday's lineup because of his recent bout with Bell's palsy, a disorder of the nerves that control movement of the muscles in the face. "It's a lot better," Pennington said of the Bell's palsy, which usually disappears on its own after a few weeks or so. "I mean, it's still there. It's no big deal." Pennington missed a handful of games as a result of the disorder, and the A's feel a need for caution. Pennington, who hit .167 on the recently concluded road trip, is batting .342 since the All-Star break.
CoJack scratched with stiff neck
OAKLAND -- A's first baseman Conor Jackson was scratched from the starting lineup about an hour before the game because of neck tightness.Jackson had earned the everyday job there shortly after Bob Melvin took over as manager when Bob Geren was let go. "He has really turned the corner," Melvin said of Jackson. Jackson has been one of Oakland's most versatile players this season. He's started 77 games at four different positions, including his first appearances in right field and at third base. Jackson is hitting .313 with a pair of home runs in the 25 games since the All-Star break. Brandon Allen, whom the A's recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday, replaced Jackson in the lineup.

I was just wondering why my footer is just a grey line with no text content, or social links as shown on the "live preview"?
Footer is managed with widgets. Add widgets to footer sidebars on Appearance -> Widgets…
That makes sense, thank you for your help.
I'm experiencing the same issue as Square1Studios (14 days ago). I think this is a valid bug. The portfolio items initially show up on the homepage, but disappear when the page fully loads. If you refresh the page, the images reappear. This started happening after I upgraded to WP 3.6.
NOTE: This only appears to be happening in Chrome.
Try to add border divider shortcode before (and after) portfolio shortcode.
When i add a portfolio item with a featured image the slider does not show up to the right. Am I missing a step?
You have to add Extra Images if you want slider to appear.
I have a trouble to upload the demo content. Followed the intructions from the help file. But after clicking on submit nothing is happening… there is only standing Import WordPress but after long waiting time nothing is happening. What do I am doing wrong. Please HELP???
It's something about your hosting server and timeout value (or something). Ask you hosting provider…
Hello. Is it possible to have a one_fourth / three_fourths column division ??
Now I can see we don't have style for 3 + 1 columns
We're not planning update with this option, but a freelancer could easily modify our theme and add this functionality…
How can I create a blog page that displays the full excerpts of all of my posts? Thanks, Liam
It's really hard to find stuff on your help page – you need topics like other WP authors do.
Anyway can you please tell me where I add thumbnail descriptions for portfolio pages?
hello anybody there?
Hi Brankic you skipped my question
this is pretty bad service. shame – you make such nice looking sites
We're in process of making support forum these days…
Description is content of the post. Also, you can Excerpt field too…
My portfolio page doesn't work in Chrome. It shows up while the page is fully loading, then completely disappears and the footer moves all the way up the page. Chrome is the only browser having this issue. I noticed it happening on your own version of the theme. Please let me know if you have a fix for this!
Batman is asking .. does this comes in black XD. am I the only person who want this template in black?
Hi there,
Can you please tell me why this slider is not centred? http://bit.ly/193f03J
Also, can you please tell me why this website's mobile version looks completely different and shows the shortcodes? http://bit.ly/193f03J
Thanks in advance
Sorry, the second link with the mobile issue is http://bit.ly/11BHMWR – thanks again.

Good evening,
How could i delete twitter button on pages and portfolio ?
Kinds regards, Raphaël
that's done in the share.inc.php
just delete it or put in <! text
How do I link the branding icon on the homepage to the filtered branding section on the portfolio page?
I've a problem with the main page slider. It takes so long for it to start skipping through the images and when i click on next arrow it doesn't register it straight away but after 30 seconds or something.
This problem has started after I input these codes to Extra CSS; • li.all {display: none;} • .item-nav {display:none;} • .flexslider .slides > li {display: block;} • preview {display:none;}
Deleted the code from Slider.inc.php ADDITIONAL CODE FOR PORTFOLIO SLIDER jQuery(document).ready(function($){ $('#portfolio-slider').flexslider({ animation: "slide", slideDirection: "horizontal", slideshow: true, slideshowSpeed: 3500, animationDuration: 500, directionNav: true, controlNav: false }); });
Change the code in Slider.inc.php div class="flexslider" id="portfolio-slider"> to
Excuse me? why do you skip some people's questions??
Sorry for skipping some questions. ThemeForest comments are not so clear, so I've spend last few days on building the support forum where support will be better.
If you've changed something, I can't provide support. It was working fine before these changes?

Hi, I've tried importing the live demo from the help sheet but it doesn't appear to have imported correctly. Could you offer any help on why this would be? Thanks
Hi, just wondered if it would be possible to get support on this?
Sorry for late reply
It looks like some kind of server timeout. Try to ask your hosting support to increase this time (also mention your initial problem when asking your hosting support)
Hi again and thanks for your reply. Hostroute have said that the max_execution_time cannot be extended beyond 60 seconds and they recommend that I install the theme manually and upload it to the themes folder. However, as far as I can see I've already done this and my current theme is showing as BigBang but I just don't have any of the live demo content. Any suggestions?
Really sorry to post again but I'm a bit stuck with moving on with my website until the live demo is in place. Is there any solution you can offer? Many thanks
You web hosting is slow, or you internet connection speed is slow 60 seconds is enough to import every XML file I've tried.
I can only suggest to create content from scratch following the instructions in help file and our FAQ section http://themeforest.net/item/bigbang-responsive-wordpress-template/2826493/support
Thanks Brankic I'll give it a go
How can I delete the title page on my home page?
And why on my blog page, there's the title and description of my website? How can I fix this? The title blog page doesn't appears and the Text next to page title is not working in this section.
It depends are you using blog page, or category. If it's front page of your website and you're using Latest posts in your reading settings – blog title will be shown.
Also, if your blog page has the same slug as your blog category, category template will be used…
As you can see there's lots of possibilities so if you provide me the URL of the page where you don't like title – I'll help you…
I'm using and static page for my homepage, not my latest posts.
Here you have the URL: http://ainacomas.es/
Visual editor doesn' work…. I have tried a new editor plugin (wordpress editor) but it's the same..
What can i do?
Very strange – nobody else reported such an issue – try to disable all plugins you have…
I have installed an adapted version of your theme (I used it almost completely as is, I just added a custom home page template), but the post-to-post navigation in single.php is not working.
See here: http://therelationshipdeal.com/2013/06/06/appending-the-launch-letter-to-my-son/
Your wp_link_pages(); won't display a previous or next post option (tested with Firefox and Chrome). I also tried posts_nav_link();, just to see if that made a difference, and nothing.
On the page, I inserted the word 'NAV' beside the two items that are not displaying, you can see its placement on the page.
Do you have any idea what might be happening? Or what I can do to adjust or troubleshoot? Thank you in advance!
To be honest, I've added wp_link_pages() to the single.php only because it was requirement (not sure if it was the reason for rejection, or I've read somewhere)
I've never used this function, but I think it's not for post-to-post navigation, but if post is divided to more section.
For post-to-post navigation, you'll have to try to add previous_post() / next_post() http://codex.wordpress.org/Next_and_Previous_Links#The_Next_and_Previous_Posts
Perfect, thank you!

Here are my choices for the Lions 2012 Practice Squad.
1. Jonte Green CB
He has a lot of raw ability, decent size for a corner, but is just not ready for the NFL. Not even close. The PS will be an ideal spot to get him "coached up" at a position the Lions could use some depth. In the future.
2. Rodney Austin OG
He is 6'4" and 311 pounds and has impressed playing at the Guard position mostly. He has taken some snaps at Center, and may develop into a useful guy. Considering that the Lions will probably only go with the two starting Guards for the roster, he could provide the depth they need at that position. He is one guy that could really use a year of seasoning and strength training as his previous football experience was very limited. Elon College?
3. A Quarterback
via t1.gstatic.com
No, that is not Kellen Moore. I got in my time machine and got a 21 year old John Elway. He should be a decent back up to Stafford for the next ten years or so. I
am not convinced don't believe that the Lions will keep Moore on as a development project. I think Mayhew will find a QB that has been recently cut who is more athletic and may be a better candidate for development as an NFL QB. Go ahead....hate me.
4. Carmen Messina LB
via binaryapi.ap.org
I was a little torn on this one. While he has played very well for the Lions in the preseason, I don't see much of a fit for him with seven guys ahead of him. Five young guys and a guy signed to long term. He seems strictly an inside LB, but he may have some special teams ability and the Lion coaches may see more upside than I do. I'll put him here because he earned it.
5. Ricardo Silva S
I am pretty sure that Ricardo is still eligible for the practice squad, after spending most of last year on it and just four games on the Lions 53 man roster. It is possible that Silva actually makes the 53 man roster, ahead of Amari Spievey, but I doubt it. I don't see a huge upside with Silva but I believe he has the makings of a quality depth Safety and a very good coverage player on special teams. They may want to park him here because of the injury history of our other Safeties.
6. A Wide Receiver
Uh-huh, that is Jerry Rice in his heyday. via www.upperplayground.com
Yeah, again I don't think the Lions keep any that they currently have. I think they will beat the bushes and cuts from other teams to pick out someone who may be raw and who they think has a lot of upside. I think they particularly want a big WR to complement Calvin. They will keep Nate Hughes' number on speed dial if any of our main four WRs gets injured early on.
7. A defensive Lineman
Could be a Tackle or could be an End. I think this is another spot that will go to someone they find on the waiver wire. I don't see our guys as being all that promising.
8. A Running Back
Could be a fullback, or could be a halfback. Again, this would be a player that the Lions felt had some promise but needed time to hone his skill set. Particularly, they may look to work on his blocking and pass catching and special teams skills. This could be a Tight End as well.
When I look over my list I see that I have four spots going to players that they know very little about. That seems a little unrealistic as it seems that one of the goals of the pracitice squad is just to have bodies to fill out practices with the full roster. There it is. Any comments or questions will be happily answered. GO LIONS!!

Time to give the Google translator a rest.......
We have sweated over the reluctant Timberwolf, the lack of options at SG and SF and the lack of respect we get from those at Four Letters.
But look yonder, standing quietly in the corner.......
We have a veritable smorgasbord of PF's and C's.
Lets get the mood of the meeting:
Can Etan Thomas be an effective reliever for Al Jefferson at centre?
Does Mark Madsen put down the towel and get some burn?
Does Darius Songaila simply reduce the minutes Brian Cardinal gets? Is Songaila the potential hidden gem of this season? Am I drunk?
If Kevin Love improves his physical condition can he play bursts at SF?
Does Olexsiy Pecherov simply continue the recent Minnesota tradition of the 7' stiff at the end of the bench (Doleac, Booth, Collins)? Just an aside - it is staggering that teams saw fit to pay Collins and Booth the MLE at some point in their career. A salutary lesson to GM's everywhere.
Have at it people.
