- An amazing meal, with a glitch at the end.TimCVIPDined on 11/14/2014Probably the best meal that I ever had. It was our anniversary. Twenty courses, with wine pairing. But the portions were small, so it worked out very well. The service was amazingly attentive, but not obtrusive. And I love the view in the amazing clean kitchen. The only downside came at the end of our meal. We asked for another glass of port while our check was delivered, and were told that we should move into the "the salon", which is the bar. It was obvious they were trying to move us out for the next seating. That's fine if we eating at Olive Garden, but this was the most expensive restaurant we ever ate at. All in, we spent over $2,000. At this price, we should not have been rushed. It left a really bad taste after twenty courses of great tastes.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Factory DiningTrappistLoverVIPDined on 11/12/2014The customer can make no variation in the menu , and if any course is missed, too bad . The server mentioned that a wine pairing was available, and my wife said that sounded nice. The wine pairing option was not listed on the wine list, and price was never mentioned by the server or listed anywhere. It turns out that the wine pairings were $248 per person, for the equivalent of about 2 ½ glasses of wine, according to the server. That comes out to almost $100 per glass. I had to ask the server for the price of the wine pairings (appearing cheap to my wife), and then had to explain to my wife that the wine pairing that she thought sounded fun was actually an extreme ripoff (again looking like a cheapskate to my wife).
- Over-the-top (in a VERY good way :)UniMeVIPDined on 11/6/2014Words cannot describe our experience last night...it's not even fair. Trying to capture the essence of Saison is challenging as they quite literally created their own category in fine dining amongst all the 3 Michelin Stars with sumptuous cuisine exquisitely presented but with the right amount of restraint, impeccable service which was never stuffy, warm and inviting ambiance created by the beautiful setting and best music playlist circa 1980's, not to mention the incredible selection of wine. I think you get the point despite my feeble attempt as I'm still basking in my post-Saison bliss.Special Features:
- WowMemeVIPDined on 11/6/2014A perfect evening in all respects! Our table was terrific with a great view of the kitchen and the ballet of preparation of dinner. Each course was brought to the table by the preparer and explained in detail with passion and enthusiasm. We had the food and wine pairing and that enhanced each course. There were may courses, so bring an appetite, but the sizes are reasonable. The evening seemed more like dinner at a friend's house than at a starred restaurant. We will not soon forget this memorable meal!!!Special Features:
- Software EngineerLuv2MichelinDined on 11/5/2014Way too expensive compare what they can deliver (like TFL and Meadowood). After had a dinner few days ago, I am very surprised they can get Michelin 3 star. No variety, almost all fish dishes, no bread, no meat (except a 2-in long .5-inch wide duck) and I need to go to McDonald's across the street to finish my dinner. I definitly won't go back again.
- Amazing!!ricepattyDined on 11/4/2014Definitely worth the splurge for a nice occasion! If you're not big into seafood though, this probably won't be a good bet for you b/c it's like 70-80% of the menu. I love the open kitchen and the service is really really wonderful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- FantasticBernieDined on 11/1/2014What a wonderful, amazing experience. Saison was all around perfect.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Exquisite and Delightful eveningwoosmileyVIPDined on 10/30/2014Exquisite and Delightful evening! It's challenging for me to articulate in writing my experience at Saison. I'm still savoring from the memory of this and my past Saison food and cocktail experiences. Complex and intriguing!Special Features:
- Outstanding!OpenTable Diner Since 2000VIPDined on 10/29/2014On a level with the other great SF restaurants, with highly complex, creative combinations of ingredients. Every mouthful was amazing, from the 3 trout courses (roe, crispy skin and smoked) to the pate mousse. The wine pairing, all whites except one red and one sake, was extraordinarily well matched at each course, far above our expectations. They accommodated our change from an early dinner to a late dinner (9:30) so we could watch the Giants win game 7! Chaos outside on the streets, but smooth, professional, service inside. Having a table near the kitchen adds a wonderful dimension of entertainment to the evening. We anticipated each course that we watched them preparing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- amazing experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 10/23/2014everything was top notch and an experience to remember. worth every penny!. the food was pretty genius and thought provoking - not many restaurants will do that! the only negative experience would be with the reservationist who called to confirm our reservation and kept saying "what?" and not listening. She seemed distracted. Then the next day I receive an email saying I did not confirm my reservation. I think they need someone with better listening and people skills to interface with the customers. A minor gripe among an awesome experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always a special experienceMelikefoodDined on 10/17/2014I was lucky enough to dine here for a second time recently. Anyway, the food. This latest tasting menu includes a lot of seafood generally cooked the same way, lightly cooked in the fire. Each course was perfectly cooked and had delicate but well thought out tastes and flavored. However, after 4 or 5 courses of one mouthful sized pieces of fish, it's gets a little one dimensional and you kind of feel like you're in just an overpriced sushi restaurant. Each course costs you about $30. The servers were polite but at times when questioned about what we were eating, knowledge was lacking. An amazing experience and night to remember, but wouldn't return as it's not worth the money.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best. Anniversary dinner. Ever.Ame1VIPDined on 10/1/2014its tasting "menu" only (there's actually no menu though) and we did the optional "discovery" add-on, and the beverage pairing. Every single bite was amazing especially enjoyed the caviar dishes - there were two - and the UNi on top of something amazing, the trout, and the radish! But everything else was incredible. Would definitely go back. Pricey but special. Epic!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- 2nd time to Saison still amazes medadaVIPDined on 9/26/20141st time I had Discovery Menu and when I returned again I tried Regular Menu+ wine pairing. I have to say the Regular is wonderful but you really should try the Discovery one time because it's just amazing. I knew Saison would make it to 3 stars in no time, and I'm so glad I get to try it before it rated 3 stars (coz it'll be so hard to get reso i bet:) It's so far the best experience I had and it's brand new experience you could ever get in French Laundry or all other fine dining. The wine pairing is good, but I don't think he explains each wine very well and it feels like he's rushing it up. I'd wish they can slow down the meals so we can enjoy it more.
- Stellar service above allswagVIPDined on 9/25/2014The service is a particular standout here. The various chefs each present their courses instead of going through a singular service line, which really works. And while the atmosphere is elegant and refined, the staff can also play along if you're looking to have some laughs and a good time.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/19/2014Overall my experience here was disappointing as I was expecting something truly great. The food was of very good quality, fresh and tasty, however the portions were too small and I left the restaurant still hungry which was surprising with a 12 course degustation menu. The wait staff were attentive and not obtrusive, and it was great to sit where we could see the chefs creating the meals, but the music was too loud, and consisted of 80s hits. I wanted this to be a special night but overall was left feeling quite flat. The bill was $700 for 2 people for a degustation menu (there are NO options apart from a 12 or an 18 course degustation menu) and one glass of wine each. Would be happy to pay this for something spectacular, but not this.Special Features:
- Most Excellent Dining ExperienceOpenTable Diner Since 2003VIPDined on 9/18/2014Saison was truly as advertised. We had an outstanding 12 to 14 course menu with wine pairing. The service was attentive, friendly and very professional. The food was out of this world from the tomato salad to the sushi to the smoked trout to the abalone to the roasted Brussels sprouts to the duck on through desert. The portions were adequate and the tastes fantastic. The wine pairings were also great including five or six still wines (mostly whites), two champagnes, one sake and one beer. It was a most wonderful anniversary celebration dinner. Just one note of caution; all this does not come for free, the bill was over the top, but it was a special occasion.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Exceptional diningOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 9/12/2014Great fresh, Japanese inspired dishes. The tasting menu of 15 dishes was very satisfying. The Parker House rolls are phenomenal.Special Features:
- great spot, 3* materialtdiddyVIPDined on 9/11/2014Very nice dining. Probably the second best dinner I've had in North America (closely behind Alinia) but better than Meadowwood, or any of the 3*s I've tried in NYC. Don't miss it!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- outstandingrob4wVIPDined on 8/30/2014one of the best restaurants in the country. it is very expensive but worth every cent. The menu is innovative and works.Special Features:
- Freakin awesomeYummersDined on 8/22/2014Wow! Wow! Wow! This meal was extraordinary. I'll admit, I was intimidated when they said the prix fixe tasting menu did not have a set price as the chef was making it up as he went along. But this meal was exquisite, delicate, refined and worth every penny - more pennies than even the French Laundry BTW. The sommelier did a lovely job pairing beautiful wines for us while respecting that we wanted to sip on a budget, and the bartender did a lovely job reinventing classic cocktails like his lovely white negroni. And having the chefs bring out their dishes personally made it both classy and unstuffy somehow. Loved watch them make their magic in the open kitchen and if you're lucky, you might get a tour. If I were doling out Michelin stars - 3!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Too Fancy - Too ExpensiveRacosiVIPDined on 8/21/2014If you are really into the chef - mini bites thing, this is your place but if you are looking to eat well, you won't like it especially when you get the check! There are 25 mini-bites courses, they take way too long between each of them and some of them are really NOT good. Me and my wife paid over $700 and had only 3 drinks (she had water).
- Remarkable experience!zwimmerfoodieDined on 8/13/2014We had an amazing experience at Saison. I had read the reviews, including many interviews with Joshua Skenes. Because SF is such a fantastic restaurant town, I never saw a need to spend huge dollars for a meal. Nonetheless, it was my 35th wedding anniversary, so my wife and I decided to splurge. Wow! The 15 course tasting meal was fantastic, didn't leave us feeling too full and the service was impeccable. The wine pairings were also fantastic. I particularly like that the restaurant is set up to provide an elegant, yet relaxed, experience. The restaurant puts all diners adjacent to the completely calm kitchen and you interact with the folks who cook your meal. It really makes you appreciate it that much more. Awesome!Special Features:
- Always PhenomenalOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 8/8/2014The food is always inventive and astounding; Mark, Patrick and their team provide flawless service and Saison always exceeds expectations. Part of what makes this one of my favourite spots though is the background music which recalls the days of my youth. Thank you!!Special Features:
- chelseaDined on 8/7/2014Had the tasting menu. It was an odyssey of highs and lows. I think it is fortunate to have a 2nd rosette.Special Features:
- Best Restaurant in San FranciscoWorldtravelorplusDined on 8/6/2014World Class and among the best restaurants in the world. Food is innovative, service is impeccable and everything down to the cutlery and wine glasses is first class.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- sorry my english is terribleedumonDined on 8/2/2014Al very very good. The food magnific. Maitines very niceSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Creative and Amazing dishesAFinSFDined on 8/1/2014We celebrated our 15th anniversary at Saison and literally had the best seat in the house. We sat right in front of the kitchen and enjoyed watching the chefs work their magic. The bartendar made me the most amazing cocktail - Tequila Daisy - and my husband enjoyed the wine pairing. My favorite dish was the Trout and I am still thinking about it! So amazing - the texture was just as good as the taste. Our waiter was a character and the same one we had last year. Made the evening that much better. Thanks for another great experience!Special Features:
- The following 424 reviews are from the Saison reviews archive.
- A "hot" mealSanRamonDadDined on 7/25/2014The food was incredible!! I would describe it as fusion that was heavily leaning toward seafood and poultry a light on red meat, which I like. The wine was free flowing and served by a person very schooled in winemaking and viticulture. The dining room and kitchen have no separation - so we were entertained with watching everything going into our meal preparation. I knew going into it that the bill would be pricey, and it was. But I was disappointed in that it was way too hot in the dining room. Perhaps this was due to the open kitchen that allowed the oven heat to flow into the dining area. But for the price we paid I would think that the restaurant should work some solution out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Simplicity with complex flavorsBeersnobDined on 7/16/2014Saison is located in a brick building that exudes charm. The restaurant has an open kitchen that is marvelous to observe and it does not create any "clatter" or extra noise (not sure how they do it?). The tasting menu has 13 courses, two of which are beverages. The entire meal is orchestrated with impecable service, each course is described in complete detail. There are no "mystery" ingredients. The focus is seafood and feels very Japanese, four courses are eaten with chopsticks. The food is textured with multiple flavors and the botanicals used are interesting. After finishing 13 courses, you are sated, but not full. Save up, and go.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fantastic foodStephDined on 7/11/2014Incredible food and service, such passion and enthusiasm for local sourcing and their own produce farmingSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just not worth the $$$$QuintinVIPDined on 7/10/2014I don't really have anything negative to say than compared to other tasting menus that I have done, this one is just overpriced. The food was very good but not epic. The service was great despite the arrogance in the air for the place. The wine pairings were epic and done exceptionally well. We went to Coi the previous night and it was u anamious that we enjoyed it better and it was less expensive.Special Features:
- Innovation & executionluv2dineVIPDined on 7/9/2014Dining here was a breath of fresh air. Truly ahead of the time regarding our culinary scene. The discovery menu takes one on the ride of their life! A refinement of earty & rustic comes full circle. Chef & staff all work cohesively to bring anyone thee best experience possible. Still in awe. BRAVO! MAGNIFICO!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- It is very good, but not great.poraDined on 7/5/2014Food wise, almost all savory appetizers and mains were good/very good. The quality of food is consistent. However non of them were great enough for me to plan for a second visit. The desserts are ok but it was expected. The open kitchen was great. Overall, it is much better experience than what I had in Restaurant of Meadowood. However, if I am going to have another dinner in one of the fancy restaurants again, I'd prefer Manresa.
- Great experienceAlwaysHungryDined on 7/3/2014Nothing negative to say about the food, the experience or the restaurant. Great dining room with great view of the open kitchen, very well planned space. The food is creative and delicious. The staff is extremely knowledgeable about the food and wine, and are very attentive and friendly. Very high standards and quality restaurant, however the pricing is high even when compared to other top Michelin star restaurants in the world.Special Features:
- Save Up To Enjoy This ExperiencezingloversVIPDined on 6/28/2014This restaurant dining experience was like no other. It was one of our top three dining experiences in the world (along with French Laundry and Joel Robuchon). We had the 21 course tasting menu along with the wine paring option. We felt it was worth it to get the 21 course menu, which provided us with delightful "wow" complete sensory experiences throughout the evening. We felt welcomed and cared for from the moment we stepped into the restaurant to the moment we left. Titillate your senses, it's worth it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- PedroDined on 6/26/2014We past the most outstanding night. The service that we receive from all personnel was really a night that never we will forget. For us they are the best 3 Michelin Star restaurant in USA. Best off the Best. To the Chef and its staff you are a great team all my respect to SAISON.Special Features:
- Perfect but for a few thingsOscarDined on 6/25/2014The food was innovative, and spectacularly designed and presented, but lacked the anticipated variety: it was almost exclusively seafood, with only one meat dish and very few (although interesting and tasty) vegetables. The last bits of some exceptional items -- for instance, the abalone liver paste -- remained uneaten because there was no bread to wipe them up. Besides exceptional wines, one dish's 'wine' pairing was sake (unwarmed), another, beer. Even though beer is not meant to be sipped, just one good swallow was presented in a wineglass. At $48, the optonal cheese course's miniature portions of five selections seem overpriced. Otherwise seamless service didn't properly accommodate the non-drinker in the party. Once is enough.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- datenightDined on 6/21/2014The food was amazing, the wine pairing was a bit underwhelming compared to other restaurants of this quality and lagged a bit in service, resulting in us playing catch up to keep the pairings with the course.Special Features:
- Great entertainmentfwfoodVIPDined on 6/20/2014We had a great evening. Watching the kitchen in action is entertaining and the service is smooth and welcoming. Were all of the courses sensational? No, but a few were outstanding, a few were interesting and a few not memorable. If you can afford to pay the bill, it is a fun evening.Special Features:
- A Michelin 3 star restaurant!GoodfoodStVIPDined on 6/18/2014We ordered the 19 course meal with wine pairing. We started with a tea course and just before desert another tea course this is just an example of the symmetry in the meal. This is a chief focused on taste not show. The smoked salmon course brought lox to a whole new level of smokey delight. In the "crispy" salad each ingredient was fried to perfection all were light and tasty. Most of the courses had a depth of favor and added accents. We eat at at Saison three months ago and they corrected all the minor issues in my last review: service was perfect, the abalone was cooked correctly not rubbery, the meat course was brought up the the level of tasty to match the other course. Now the only issue is value? Wine pairing was outstanding!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

I have been caught up in the emotional storm of opposing John Brown's parole in the 1973 murder of David "Stringbean" Akeman and his wife, Estelle. His parole hearing was this week.
Brown was sentenced to 198 years in prison for murdering the Grand Ole Opry star and his wife during a robbery at the Akemans' rural home near Ridgetop, Tenn., according to news reports.
My whole attitude toward murderers has changed in recent years. Once, I might have been impressed by evidence of their rehabilitation, but I have come to see that there are two main reasons for their incarceration: to punish them severely enough to discourage other would-be murderers and to remove a dangerous person from society. I think the latter is society's primary responsibility to every citizen.
Any sane person would have to view John Brown as a potential danger to others. While Chaplain Amos Wilson said, "I'd have no problem if John Brown moved in next to me," I feel certain that most people would.
Here's a man who waited with his cousin Marvin at Akeman's home for hours while he was performing on the Grand Ole Opry, shot him in the chest while his cousin restrained him, chased down his wife and shot her in the back, and then shot her twice in the back of the head while she begged for her life. Anyone capable of that kind of savagery could never be considered safe enough to be returned to society, much less to be anyone's next-door neighbor.
Brown has said all along that he doesn't remember killing the Akemans. He lies in wait for several hours, shoots a man in the chest, chases down his wife and shoots her twice and doesn't remember it? They don't make liquor or dope that strong. It's an attempt to absolve himself of some of the responsibility for his brutal behavior.
His claim that he doesn't remember is all the more reason not to turn him loose. All he needs to become unconscious and commit hideous acts he cannot remember is a few drinks and/or some kind of drug. Alcohol and drugs are much too available for anyone to ever feel safe around him.
To prove that he does remember, he reportedly said, "I didn't mind shooting Stringbean, but it was kinda hard shooting his wife."
Between the time he killed the Akemans and was sent to prison, he married and his wife is the best thing he has going. I have no desire to disparage her. She works for a church and is probably a good person. But when she talks about Brown deserving release, she loses me. He deserved something more than he got.
Saying he has suffered enough ignores the suffering of many others. Stringbean and Estelle are still suffering from six feet of dirt being piled on their faces. Grandpa Jones still suffers from the loss of his fishing and hunting buddy. He still has nightmares of finding their bodies the morning after they were cruelly slain, and those images will torture him as long as he lives. The memory of his death still torments all of Stringbean's fans and few things are more gruesome than knowing one of your heroes died at the hands of a bonafide monster.
Parole board members should go to findagrave.com and place a picture of Stringbean's headstone alongside Brown's parole request. Tombstones are final. Let that be his final answer.
(P.S. I've just received word the parole board turned down Brown's parole.)
Contact Dalton Roberts at email@example.com.
I remember when this murder took place. This inmate deserves nothing. The likes of this idiot should no be allowed to even seek parole. This one is still living off of the taxpayers.
I agree with you Mr. Roberts.
I agree...he doesn't deserve parole. He IS a monster...
I always liked Hee-Haw...and Stringbean was a big part of why I watched it.
Let em' dangle - and btw - Grandpa Jones died in 1998 so he does not miss his buddy.

Stephen Jones to receive Outstanding Achievement Award at British Fashion Awards
It is quite literally hats off to master milliner Stephen Jones today after it was revealed that he will receive the Outstanding Achievement Award at this month's British Fashion Awards (BFAs).
"The Outstanding Achievement Award celebrates the exceptional talent of an individual who has contributed to the British fashion industry both internationally, and here in the UK throughout their career," said Hilary Riva.
Jones, who exhibits his first retrospective of hats next year at the V&A Museum, will be presented with the honour at the BFAs on the 25th November.
"He is a true original whose work is as relevant today as it was when he designed his first collection in 1979. Despite working regularly with the biggest names on the international catwalk he finds time to nurture and collaborate with emerging talent and creativity. I am thrilled that he will be the recipient of this year's Outstanding Achievement Award," added Riva.
As for the rest of the winners, we're only a week or so away from finding out who they are. CQ will have all the coverage from the BFAs - so make sure to keep us bookmarked.

Over the past year or so, I've developed a strong preference for kyut, sweet girls (TAY SWIFT I'm looking at you) and an equally strong aversion to self-centered, slutty-looking girls who crave male attention. That said, sometimes my penis has a mind of its own– for example, that I have fallen madly in heart with ALLISON GREEN (who you may know as the less-popular sister from MILLIONAIRES) despite the fact that she looks like a second-shift stripper from Van Nuys aka the opposite of sweet aka the opposite of the kind of girl I normally fall in heart with. But my penis has spoken, and who am I to disagree??
In this post, I will share the best of her slutty Instagram photos so you can see why I love her so much. Put down a tarp before reading any further, you're gonna need it!
Two things I normally hate on girls are hats and fake glasses. Yet on this enchanting creature I could not love them more ♥ Dat face omggggggggggg 11/10
"Ugh I'll clean up my room in a minute mom, I'm busy taking selfies!!"
The part where her bikini bottom is so small that it's like digging into her hip = call 911 and tell them I may be dying of boner overdose
What the shit is up with Melissa's zombie leg please respond
This is one of those pictures that makes me slightly resentful because I feel like it just isn't fair that a girl this hot exists :/
That "hungover bro ho still wearing makeup from when she passed out last night" look hngggggggggggg (srs)
sup bb rly into how u have the same hair as one of my favorite 'adult entertainers' Christine Alexis
Wood choke back my hatred for dinosaur metal and tell her her shirt was 'soooo awesome'/10
And least but certainly not least. DAT A$$ #culo

UMW actors to perform 'Moon Over Buffalo'

Hall is the daughter of Janet Hall of Spotsylvania and is a 2009 graduate of Fredericksburg Academy.
A junior majoring in theater, Hall is a member of Alpha Psi Omega, a national collegiate honorary fraternity for outstanding students of theatre. She was the stage manager for the UMW production of "Summer and Smoke," and the assistant stage manager for UMW's "Romeo and Juliet."

"Moon Over Buffalo" takes place in Buffalo, N.Y. in 1953. Stage actors George and Charlotte Hay are performing "Cyrano de Bergerac" and "Private Lives" in repertory at Buffalo's Erlanger Theatre when they receive word that Hollywood film director Frank Capra plans to attend a matinee performance. Chaos ensues as the Hays prepare for Capra's arrival in hopes of starring in his new movie.
"Moon Over Buffalo" premiered on Broadway at the Martin Beck Theatre on Oct. 1, 1995, and ran for 309 performances. Philip Bosco and Carol Burnett were nominated for a Tony Award for Best Actor in a Play and Best Actress in a Play in 1996 for their roles as George and Charlotte Hay. Ken Ludwig's work has been performed on Broadway and in London's West End. He is a recipient of the Laurence Olivier Award and has been nominated for three Tony Awards and two Helen Hayes Awards.

Producer's Corner: Don Cannon
When DJ Premier speaks, people have a tendency to listen. So when he hailed Atlanta-based production giant [giant being used both figuratively and literally] Don Cannon as one of the hottest out right now, this Aphilliate is obviously doing something right.
The track that catapulted him to hot producer status was "Go Crazy" by the hometown trapster Young Jeezy. Yet there is a lot more to come from this progressive forward thinker who cites music as his reason for existence. OutKast's "Da Art of Storytellin' Part 4" and Freeway's "Walk Witt Me" have come more recently, only reminding us of the greatness that the Philadelphia-born deejay/producer is capable of.
Shining a light on the holes rappers dig, the importance of backing up and great expectations this nouveau production mastermind gets into it with HipHopDX.
HipHopDX: How did you get into what you were doing?
Don Cannon: I think it just came to me naturally. I never just started doing it; I was doing this from when I was five years old, so it is just kind of in you.
DX: What exactly were you doing from five years old?
DC: Well I was deejaying, and I have played with instruments all my life. Playing keyboards, drums and rapping even since I was real young.
DX: Do you think its important for a producer to keep moving ahead to have this knowledge of all aspects of music and not just sitting in a studio behind a mixing board?
DC: If you want to become a great producer, then yes, get as much knowledge of instruments, the history, like who did what record, the great records. Please make sure you know all that knowledge if you want to stay in this game. If you dont, you dont have to learn nothing as you can be a fly by night and make a whole bunch of money. If you are trying to make history, learn the history not just when it comes to Hip Hop, but in general.
DX: You came into the game with the other Aphilliates, Drama and Sense who you went to school with. How critical was having that foundation for you?
DC: Man that was really important, as each of us was individuals at the time but we brought all the projects together to make things bigger. You know you are walking around with people who have whatever you need and I had whatever they needed. It helps to make you move further when you have the help of your peers.
DX: Did you all know each other when you were in Philly?
DC: I kind of knew about Drama in Philly, as he was already doing stuff and he had a couple of people who went to his high school that were friends with me and the same with me. I never met him though until I got down here though, and the same with Sense. He grew up with people that I grew up, with but we never bumped shoulders until we came down to Atlanta. It comes with timing and I think it was just meant to be that we would all meet up down here.
DX: Taking it back to those days, does music have the same effect on you now as it did back then?
DC: Oh yes definitely. I think the most important thing to me now is music. I dont need anything else but music to be honest as that is all I care about.
DX: Your resume is progressing and the beats are getting hotter. What projects are you involved with right now?
DC: Right now I am just trying to take it to the next level. I am blessed as I am just a young Jordan in the game or a young LeBron, as every song I have done on an album has been a platinum or more record, and I am blessed with that [Editor's note: Don Cannon recently worked on Freeway's Free At Last, which did not achieve a plaque as of yet]. I am continuing to work with both little and big artists, as even the little artists can have big records. I just did two records with Ludacris which I am excited about. I was working with The Game and Nas. There are a couple of albums I am really excited about. Also I am working with a couple of young cats and that is what I am excited about and that is what keeps me going.
DX: The fact that you are associated with albums and songs that have sold millions, having achieved that, does it make you nervous in any way as that is what people may expect from you?
DC: It doesnt bother me as I work with individuals that just inspire me to keep going. You know some people might get carried away, "Youre working with this person, that person, Jay-Z is on your track, where as I just keep it regular. Jay-Z is my favorite rapper of all times, but to me, it is just another notch on the belt. It isnt any pressure for me as to me music is an art. Whether you splash it, like when you draw, you can say splashing and painting on a wall is art, the same with the music. It is all about how a person views it. You know some people draw and then some people might throw a bugger on the wall [laughs] but it is art to them. It is art to me; if a person comes to me, there is no pressure. They will either need this beat or not, I am doing me. I dont want to hear no conversation about, "I want a go crazy beat," or "I want a Cannon beat," or "I want a beat like you did for Fabolous," I am just doing music. There is no real pressure for me as it is up to the artist to take it to the next level and I am just happy to be working with artists that are able to take it to the next level.
DX: Nowadays are artists looking to dictate the direction of production to keep in the vein of what we are already listening to?
DC: I think certain artists are lazy now, now they just leave it up to the producer to give them beats. That is why you dont hear all these hot producers. To be anybody, people are just going to the hottest producer to get the hottest record and think that getting the beat is it. But no its doesnt work like that; it is a mutual thing to make a record and make history. You have to get out there and make those records. The deejay is nothing without the artist and the artist is never something without the deejay; it is never a one footed thing. It is a mutual thing where everyone has to get out there and work. A great beat and a bad artist still leaves a bad song just as a great artist with a bad beat till leaves a bad song. It all works hand in hand.
DX: Why do you think that artists have got so lazy then when production is so strong?
DC: I think artists go for big name because they want the quickest thing available that will get them to the masses. If that means getting a Cool & Dre beat, then thats what they do. If that means getting a Swizz Beatz beat, then that is what they will do. But "Hot Dog Man" over here might have the craziest beats in the world, but they wont touch his beats because everyone is looking for a name to associate. The more association with a name the more credit the artist will have. It will give more people a chance to pick it up. If there are a million people trying to promote their CDs, you might not look at one until you see a DJ Premier beat or something like that. This is no disrespect to the artists saying they are lazy, but people dont want to grind it out. They dont have patience these days and they dont want to strive for perfection. I give a person like Lil Wayne and a person like Lupe [Fiasco] credit. People look at Lil Wayne and think he might be the best rapper or might not be the best rapper, but one thing for sure is that he and Juelz Santana always mess with new producers. People never look at that though. Lupe Fiasco stays with new producers and one thing about Jay-Z and 50 Cent was they always worked with new producers too. They might have their Timbaland or Just Blaze sprinkled here and there, but they go with whatever sounds good, doesnt matter where it comes from and that is why those guys are greats.
Like 50 Cents record of the year was Apex [click here to read...], "I Get Money," and that was his first record ever. They are always looking for something fresh. You dont have to come out of the box with everything. It just takes great minds to think like that. Thats why I think artists are lazy because they would rather go and spend their budgets going to see Danja or so and so. Yeah they are going to give you a good record, but it is up to you to make it a big record. I am sure Swizz and all those niggas will tell you that also.
DX: Did you find that once you had your first big single, Jeezy's "Go Crazy," they were gravitating towards you more?
DC: Yeah they are gravitating towards me more but they realize I am not going to give them the same beat that I gave Jeezy. You know I am a producer, I make records and will put my input in but it is all up to the artist. I cant make Lil Scrappy; Lil Scrappy gotta make Lil Scrappy. I can give you the hottest beat in the world, but you have to make yourself.
DX: When is it that you think you might have made it as a producer, you know become content with yourself?
DC: I dont know man; it is hard to find contentment man. I know I am not content now as I am still on the rise. There is still doubt with everybody, from Timbaland to Dr. Dre, because if you dont have that banging record you are back to cold or lukewarm again as opposed to hot. It is just one of those things that you have to constantly make hot songs.
DX: What has been the most advantageous program or piece of equipment in your tenure as a producer?
DC: I would have to say for me personally, and I can only speak for myself has been Logic 08, which is like a producers program inside the computer. I pick that because I was able to transfer all of my sounds and my equipment in the box. Now I can just carry around a laptop and a controller and I have like the five or ten keyboards I have bought over the years, an MPC, an ASR plus a recording module and deejay program all in one computer.
DX: Tell me you back up your computer.
DC: Hell yeah, I am looking at five computers right now and I have about 19 hard drives.
DX: Yeah but you hear about people who have laptops stolen and the owners never backing up their computers and then losing years of work. Kind of crazy as well as unfortunate.
DC: I mean it happens sometimes as some people will sit there and forget to back up because they work so much. I constantly back up as I went through a stage where I lost 100 beats off a drive. That was probably the worst thing that ever happened to me as I honestly thought I was about to die. Thats a lot of beats..but it happens. You just learn over the years like I learned. Not only when you are high profile in the world but there are places you might take your computer, and then have it stolen. I have had mine stolen out of my car before and I am not the only one that has been through that. Plenty have gone through the exact same thing. You have drives crash. I just constantly back up and do what I have to do as I cant go through that heart break anymore.
DX: Like with any career though, you have to safeguard your shit.
DC: Yes you do, it is very important. The thing with Macs though is that they are so advanced in their technology that they have this program which I think is great for producers, called Time Machine, which will back up every five minutes so that if your computer ever crashes you can take it back to whatever date you want to take it back to and restore it back to that point. Producers need to have that.
DX: Has technology made it easier to produce with all the programs that are available today?
DC: Its not exactly easier but there are a lot of things around that have made it easier. Lets put it that way, all the programs available have made it easier but you still have to be skilled. You are not going to get these programs and become J Dilla or become Jazzy Jeff overnight. You still have to get in there and grind it out and make it what you want it to be.
DX: You were at the One Stop Shop the other week sitting alongside DJ Premier and No I.D. How did it feel to be sitting along side these guys who have educated so many of us?
DC: DJ Premier is my favorite producer of all time, and I grew up listening to him and I couldnt believe I was sitting there beside him. I crafted my style from that and that was big for him to say I was one of his favorite producers right now. That made me feel like I was doing something. [Laughs] I work with No I.D. all the time, and with Swizz and Mr. Porter and I go back and forth all the time on the iChat. Its good for us to trade secrets as you know as back in the day, people were fighting for the work, so they didnt want to trade no secrets. Now there is enough work out here for everyone and now they dont mind trading secrets all day. That is better for the industry.
DX: Did you have anyone guide you as you have come up in the game?
DC: I had cats like Focus, No I.D., Jazzy Jeff and that was it really. I really learned that stuff on my own and as I have grown on and I bumped shoulders with other people. But it is those people who have helped me a lot. I mean I have been studying a lot; I have studied every mixtape, as my dad passed away when I was 11, so Jeru the Damaga, Jay-Z and Nas were all like my pops, just as DJ Premier. These were who was sitting down with me at night when I was sitting on a machine as that was how I learned.
DX: Studying, no matter what the subject always yields better results.
DC: Well America is a slightly lazy world you know; if shit can be done in short cuts then that is what they want to do.
DX: Talking about mixtapes, what would you be your favorite mixtape of all time?
DC: Doo Wop's Live 95.
DX: [Laughs] Yeah Drama said the same thing to me.
DC: [Laughs] Yeah we talk about that tape all the time man. I actually had that tape, one of my fave tapes of all time; that and Trap or Die by Young Jeezy. That basically solidified mixtapes to the next level.
DX: Do you think mixtapes have helped producers as well as artists and deejays?
DC: Definitely. It is an ongoing struggle for producers giving away their beats and them getting on mixtapes as it is cutting off money but for the young producers that are coming out that is the best way to do it. People just need to shout out the producers when they get on it. I think producers are getting smart with that too, putting their own drop on beats so that when people rap over it they know where it came from.

After he was pulled from Royal Rumble 2014 at the last minute, Evan Bourne told fans on Twitter that he was still working on making his return to WWE, but as of right now, it does not appear that management is making that a priority backsage.
Since the company wanted to sell the brutality of Brock Lesnar for his match against Big Show at Royal Rumble 2014, they had Mark Henry work an injury angle and take a couple of weeks off. It looks the former world champion is returning to WWE, possibly as soon as Monday Night Raw this week.
After what took place at Royal Rumble 2014, WWE officials were concerned that the audience at Monday Night Raw was going to hijack the event by voicing their opinions, so in order to help squash some of that and control the crowd, management had Daniel Bryan cutting a promo to open up the show.
Long known backstage as someone with a short fuse, Randy Orton was said to be irate with the fans at Royal Rumble 2014 because he feels that they interrupted his performance against John Cena by openly rooting for Daniel Bryan. Orton does have a history of being upset with audiences.
While the crowd reaction at Royal Rumble 2014 was noticed by management backstage, WWE does not appear to be changing their plans for Daniel Bryan. He is still penciled in for a match against Sheamus at Wrestlemania 30, and the program is expected to be started at Elimination Chamber 2014.
There are those backstage that were disappointed with Royal Rumble 2014, as many feel that there were not enough highlight spots during the match. Kofi Kingston was praised for doing his best to produce memorable moments, but very few others were able to stand out. Jamie Noble, the agent in charge of the match, has backstage heat because of that.
Last night, at Royal Rumble 2014, Shawn Michaels surprised the audience by seemingly breaking character and heavily praising Daniel Bryan while doing commentary. There are those that believe that he was simply setting up an upcoming story line for WWE by doing that.
Kevin Nash made a surprising appearance during Royal Rumble 2014 last night, and that has caused fans to speculate about his return to WWE. As of right now, it appears to be a one night deal and not a full time return. Nash was said to have been paid really well for that quick stint in the match.
There is heavy speculation that Kevin Nash will be at Royal Rumble 2014 tonight, as the former heavyweight champion is staying at the same hotel as the WWE performers are in Pittsburgh. He is in town to host a party for people watching the pay per view, but those plans could change.
There is speculation that Sean Waltman could be a mystery entrant at Royal Rumble 2014 tonight, as the former WWE star canceled an appearance at an independent wrestling show in Virginia last night. Waltman also revealed that he was in Pittsburgh right now.
The record for most elimination in the Royal Rumble belongs to Kane, who once took out eleven performers. There are talks that Roman Reigns could be given the distinction of beating that tonight at Royal Rumble 2014. He is expected to be pushed heavily during the match.
Since the two of them are extremely close friends, there are talks backstage that Batista has convinced WWE to bring Jimmy Wang Yang back for a temporary stint. Some are under the belief that he could be a mystery entrant at Royal Rumble 2014 this Sunday night.
There are talks that the Undertaker could be making an appearance at Royal Rumble 2014. WWE seems set on having a big match between he and Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania 30, so the buildup for that match could be started at the pay per view on Sunday night.
While we still do not have a definite answer as to how long he has been upset with the company, we do know now that CM Punk was already contemplating a departure from WWE as early as Royal Rumble 2014. He vented to Mick Foley at the time about not being happy within the company and having trouble dealing with injuries.
When Alexander Rusev made his debut at Royal Rumble 2014, many were under the impression that it was a permanent call up to the main roster. However, it appears that management wants the developmental wrestler to have a little more seasoning by working in WWE NXT for a few more weeks.
While watching Royal Rumble 2014, Rikishi expressed his frustration with WWE by posting a message on Twitter. He asked what the company was doing with his sons, Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso. He also stated that the "writers suck" and ended the statement with "bullshit".
Alexander Rusev, the developmental wrestler who made his debut at Royal Rumble 2014, was trained by Rikishi. His relationship with the former WWE star helped help progress in the industry a lot quicker than a lot of other guys who have tried to make it to the main roster.
Former nWo stable mates Kevin Nash and Booker T have come to terms on a contract. Nash, who surprised wrestling fans by returning to WWE at Royal Rumble 2014, will be working a show for Booker on February 15, and there is a chance that he could be working more dates for the promotion.
Royal Rumble 2014 is barely in the books now, but Jake Roberts, who publicly campaigned for a spot in the big match, has revealed that he has started training for Royal Rumble 2015. The WWE legend feels that it would provide some closure to be able to work one final match for the company.
Some last minute replacements were added to Royal Rumble 2014. Initially, Xavier Woods and Wade Barrett were given spots in the big match, but WWE officials decided to remove them and replace them with JBL and El Torito instead. The feeling backstage was that the fans would react better to those the latter two performers.
While there were minor rumblings of him possibly returning at Royal Rumble 2014, it now appears that WWE has saved Christian for Smackdown instead. The former world champion is scheduled to appear on the episode being taped in Toledo later on today.
Big Show was noticeably missing from Monday Night Raw this week. WWE has given him some time off to heal from the hand injury that he suffered at a live event over the weekend. Management had Brock Lesnar attacking him during Royal Rumble 2014 to write him off of television.
"I honestly never expected the type of attention that both my tweet and my Facebook post about my displeasure with the Royal Rumble would bring. I was just expressing an opinion, and it seemed to be in line with what many of you had on your mind last night as well. The response on both Twitter and Facebook dwarfed anything I'd received in the past, and I hope WWE will recognize this unprecedented response as a sign that a little tweaking might be needed in order to save this Wrestlemania from the prospect of 75,000 people booing, turning their backs, or walking out of its main event."
- Mick Foley thanking fans for their response to his Royal Rumble 2014 rant
While he did not make an appearance during Royal Rumble 2014 as speculated, Sean Waltman, who canceled an appearance at an independent wrestling show, was said to be backstage at the event, where his good friend Kevin Nash made his return.
"Crowd became disconnected in John Cena - Randy Orton match. Talents worked hard nonetheless. Simply wasn't what they wanted to see. "
- Jim Ross on Royal Rumble 2014
At Royal Rumble 2014, fans in the arena heavily showered Rey Mysterio with boos. While that confused many at the beginning, it became evident shortly thereafter that people were upset that Mysterio had the final spot in the match instead of Daniel Bryan.

It was a sunny day, about 39-40 degrees. We went up the the roof and all of us was chatting about what the solar cells would be like . After walking for a few minutes , finally we reached the top. The white floor was reflecting enormous amount of sunlight into our eyes. Sunglasses! How could we forget. Next we approached the solar cells. Mr. Taylor introduced us to it and told us facts like how much energy it made. He also said it charges all the science laptop and T.V. After that we went into the science lab , Mr. Taylor showed us some interesting equipment such as , solar furnaces and an air powered car. As we went back all of us thought how interesting science can be.
Sorry, it's a little over 100......
A Report on how electric energy is produced from solar energy.
Last Monday, 23 of April in the afternoon 5B went to secondary school to learn about Solar cells and how solar energy is used to power up laptops when there is a power failure. Mr Taylor explained to us how a solar cell works. Solar cells are used to absorb sunlight and the energy is stored in the form of electrical energy in the cell. There are wires connecting the solar cells to the power distribution box, when there is power failure the electricity generated from the solar energy is used to charge laptops. We borrowed an equipment with magnifying glass that absorbed sunlight. We tested how the equipments work by placing it in the garden and keeping a bowl of water under the magnifying glass. We noticed the temperature of the water was raising at different intervals and was more at noon, it started to cool down later.
Oliver Twist in 100 words
Oliver was born in a small town near London in the 19th century. He lost his mother soon after he was born. Oliver was brought up in the child farm until he was about eight years old. Farm authorities wanted him to start working and sent him back to the workhouse. But Oliver made a mistake of asking for more food when he was starving. But the authorities were ready to offer five pounds to anyone who's willing to take Oliver as a trainee. Eventually he was sent off with a coffin-maker. He was not happy to work with them after a while and decided to go to London by walk. He faced many challenges initially and met a kind person later who was ready to help him. With his kind care and other friends he learnt to read and write.
9 year old orphan Oliver Twist escapes to London after a hard time working for cruel bosses. He meets the Artful Dodger who leads him into a criminal gang led by Fagin. He gets caught stealing a book, however, the rich book-shop owner Mr Brownlee defends and adopts him. Fagin's friends evil Bill Sikes and his girlfriend Nancy kidnap Oliver but Nancy feels sorry so tells Mr. Brownlee where to find him. Bill murders Nancy in anger and the Artful Dodger leads the police to find Bill. Whilst escaping Bill accidentally hangs himself and Fagin ends up getting hung in prison. Meanwhile, Oliver lives peacefully with Mr. Brownlee.Published on Wednesday, May 02, 2012 Like
Last monday on the 23rd of April 5B went down to secondary to meet Mr Taylor, the head of secondary science. He taught us what a solar cell is used for. We use solar cells to charge our laptop so we don't waste much electricity. The laptops needs sun energy for the solar power. That's why we have it connected to other things and not straight into the laptop, it wouldn't be able to charge at night since there is no sun. That's why we get it loaded into a battery holder first so we can still charge it at night.
It is one word too long
My 100 Word Report
It was a very hot Monday morning when we walked through Secondary heading towards the solar panels, which were on top of the Secondary Science labs. When we got to the top, the sun was reflecting off the floor, which made us squint a lot. This was even worse because I forgot my sunglasses! Mr Taylor told us about how the solar panels worked. The electricity went down a floor to some batteries and the batteries then stored the electricity, which could then be used to charge equipment like laptops and to work the TV. It was a good idea because you are not releasing CO2 into the atmosphere.

Korea Creating Women-Only Pink Parking Spots
The project, in which 4,929 public and private parking places have already been pink-ified throughout the city, is park of the city's Women Friendly Seoul Project. In addition to making the city more stiletto-friendly, it also proposes more public restrooms for women, improved lighting in public places and more public day-care centers.
This sounds like one of those things that is simultaneously totally awesome and secretly a little offensive, at least in terms of those carnation-pink parking spaces.
On the one hand, high heels can do all kinds of damage to a girl's legs, so we sympathize with South Korean fashionistas. But when are people going to get over the idea that painting something pink makes it automatically girl-friendly? Not all women looooove pink (or wear heels for that matter)!
And doesn't granting special favors for one gender do more to point out differences in treatment than empower women? Especially in a country where gender disparity is already an issue?

I'm guessing that this means that women are not treated equally in South Korea, otherwise they would find this offensive.

Ok. You're doing the "girl" thing. Why do almost all women do that? You take something, I mean even something little, and turn it around. We purposely find faults in things men do for us. Yes it's a little condescending, but I mean, they ARE trying. It's a considerate gesture, no matter how you look at it. They are trying to make one more thing a little easier for us, and let's face it, we've all been there, walking down the aisles in the parking lot on our way to the mall thinking,"My feet are KILLING ME, but these shoes look so good!". I'm just saying, no wonder why men think we don't know what we want. They aren't psychic ladies....

so women get closer parking spots cuz there stupid to wear heals when handicap people have no choice and get set back!
Wednesday 05 August
By Thebluespruce
Hey i've got an even better idea! Rather than making special parking spots for thoses "oh poor ladies", try this out.... DON"T WEAR HIGHHEELS!!!! It's that simple. If they just can't resist, they should try putting on highheels after they get to where you need to go, rather than bitching and complaining.

I just returned from a year in Seoul, and the thing that many people forget is that it is a different culture. They automatically apply the Western ideal to the Eastern mind-set. I mean when I applied for a job I was required to send a picture with my application; this is something you couldn't do in the states period. It was also common place to get asked my age and marital status by a complete stranger, so they were able to greet me properly. This is due to the a language that has different rules for elders and the younger generation. I guess what I am saying is that the country is not America and there are different social expectations. Korean women will wear stilettos to the grocery store, and never leave the house with out dressing like they are going to a party. Korean women will appreciate this 'preferential' treatment and probably won't look at it as discriminatory like the westerners would. They live a very glamorous lifestyle in the heart of Seoul and these changes are just a reflection of that. Stop always judging other cultures and just accept that other places are different.

I am not a NOW member. I like being treated like a woman. I like having doors opened for me. I like to have chairs pulled out for me. I like to helped out of a car. But, I DON"T NEED A PINK PARKING SPACE closer to the mall or a business I work at or am visiting, just because I am wearing high heels. I am capable of walking a distance in my high heels. If I can walk the mall then I can walk in the parking lot.
Save the special parking spaces for the handicapped and elderly. I am a able bodied woman.

You sound like one of those crazy women empowerment people..damn they trying to be nice to they women i would jump at that chance...people try to be nice and people got a problem with it if you wanna walk then you can walk but if america ever do this i will be in one of them parking spaces

How about men who wear high heels? Myself and two male friends of mine have been wearing women's clothes and high heels (as men without trying to pass as women) out in public for several years. We are firm believers in men's fashion freedom. Women wear everything men wear and us men have that same right .

While Koreans live under a different culture, I am blown away by the double standard women take advantage of. You scream equal rights, but you still want preferential treatment. Which is it? You want doors opened for you or you want to earn your own living? Stop demandng both. If you say you can do everything I can do, then do it. If I dont get special treatment, why should you.
Saturday 08 August
By hypericosahedron
Hilarious reply, Jim.
Where are all these women who are screaming for both things? I have never once heard a single woman complain that no guys open doors for her and in the same breath complain that they aren't treated equally enough. Different women have different opinions about feminist issues. By the same token, some men feel that pulling out chairs and opening car doors for women is chivalrous, while others feel that it is antiquated. Neither men nor women operate under a single hive mind.
The other thing is that men are often the ones who insist on these little acts of kindness because they make them feel more manly and reinforce gender roles. It is men who often get upset when a woman doesn't want them to pick up the tab or lift them over puddles. WHY DON'T THEY APPRECIATE ME, is what these men think. So stop your whining. Find a girl who agrees with you and don't worry about the rest. We don't owe you anything.
(P.S., men do get special treatment.)

NEW YORK – David Boudia knows about pressure. He spent the entire Beijing Olympics focusing on his diving competitions – probably a little too much.
He came home empty-handed.
After that experience, he let go of the idea of winning medals above all else, and just focused on doing his best at the sport he picked up 11 years ago because his friend's father won some free lessons in an auction.
The Purdue graduate came back from London with two medals clanking around his neck, representing a return to the Olympic success that eluded the United States for two cycles since Laura Wilkinson's surprise gold in Sydney.
"It's not every day you get to dive in front of 18,000 people," Boudia said. "It's crazy. I remember the swing, climbing up out of the pool and hearing the crowd."
Early on in the London Games, Boudia won a bronze in the synchronized platform event with Nicholas McCrory. Then on Saturday, he upset world champion Qiu Bo of China by less than 2 points to win his gold on the 10-meter platform.
The last American man to win gold in that event? Greg Louganis in 1988, when he was already famous for his accomplishments. Since then, his name has also come up when noting that no American has reached that level.
"What we did in Beijing is we just sat there, and counted," Boudia said. "All right, 24 hours. All right, 15 hours."
London was different from the start for many reasons.
"Because of the direction change in USA Diving, we got out of the village," Boudia said.
The divers went north to train in Sheffield, England, and Boudia said he was able to spend some time relaxing at a house in the countryside with his sisters Shauni and Shaila. Boudia had 10 days between events, and he didn't want to repeat the slow burn of Beijing by sitting around.
Refreshed, Boudia came back to London with a rested body and mind.
He said he didn't bother looking at the scoreboard too much. He barely made it out of prelims, qualifying 18th before a strong semifinal moved him up to medal position.
He was tied with Qiu going into the last round, and Qiu was set to go after him.
He scored 102.60 points on a back 2 1/2 somersault with 2 1/2 twists pike worth a 3.6 degree of difficulty. It turned out to be the highest score of any dive in the final once Qiu followed with a 100.80, giving Boudia and the U.S. the gold by 568.65 points to Qiu's 566.85.

Keira Knightley was clearly not a damsel in distress when she stepped out in this damson dress last night. In London for the premiere of new film 'A Dangerous Method', the actress was a picture of elegance in the floor-sweeping, key-hole gown, accented with nothing more than a simple black bow at the wait. It came courtesy of the ever-talented Christopher Bailey and his fashion wonderland, Burberry Prorsum. Paired with a dramatic smoky eye, a low-key up 'do and that signature pout, Ms Knightley proves that you don't need to flash the flesh to steal the spotlight.
As a long-time fan of the British brand, this is not the first time we've seen Keira + Burberry. The gorgeous star is regularly snapped sporting Mr Bailey's iconic military trench coats, biker jackets and shearling winter warmers (check them out in the gallery above). So much so, they've become her uniform for off-duty dressing. And such is her love for the label, Keira's evern confessed to splurging £4000 on her favourite Burberry coat.
After posting the image of Keira working Burberry last night on Grazia UK's Facebook page, compliments for the ensemble came flooding. Stephen Morris likened her to a modern Audrey Hepburn: "Goes to show that elegance never goes out of style." We agree, Stephen! Meanwhile, Milica Marković praised her unique style, writing: "classic and rather sophisticated, that's why I adore her." As for Debbie King-Robinson, she noted: "Fabulous rouge noir gown, black accessories, severe hair and smoky eyes give this a glam goth edge." Hear, hear!
So will we see Keira on the front row when the Burberry Prorsum catwalk show rolls into London Fashion Week? Here's hoping...

On Monday afternoon, police say a 17-year-old gunman shot a 14-year-old who was riding in a car at this intersection in Beloit.
"It's unique only in the fact that it involved a school-aged child, a 14-year-old," said Capt. William Tyler, Beloit police department. "Which are not typical."
The age does make this a more eye-opening incident, but what makes it almost unbelievable, is the fact that the 14-year-old shooting victim went home that night and to school the next day, before he told authorities that he had a gun-shot wound.
"Although nothing that violent occurred at the school, there's always a propensity when those type of conflicts take place," said Tyler, "so we try and be as responsive as we can."
The shooting took place several miles from Beloit Memorial high school, but police say both the 17-year-old and 14-year-old knew each other, because of their connections to Memorial.
And there was a very large police presence outside that school Wednesday afternoon.
Which could be part of the reason why a lot of students say they feel safe while they're in the building.
"Because there's a lot of cops in the hallway patrolling and there's teachers monitoring the hallways," said one student.
"You should feel safe, because there's a lot of people around," said another student.
"I think we're pretty safe," said a different student, "it's just outside of school, like how safe are our neighborhoods?"
Once students leave the building is when most of them we talked with say they start to worry about their safety.
That's why Beloit safety coordinator Doug Reynolds says this shooting is an example of exactly what *should* happen.
"This incident is a very good illustration of students coming forward with information knowing that there's a place they can go and feel safe about doing so," said Reynolds.
Reynolds says he wants students to think of Beloit Memorial as a safe haven, with teachers they can trust.
So that when there is a problem on the streets, school officials can help resolve it in the classroom.
"Kids seem to be very comfortable in our surrounding," said Reynolds, "knowing that we will continue as we always do to work tirelessly to keep them safe at school."

WASHINGTON - Authorities have identified the Rockville, Md. man who died in a fire early Thursday morning in Montgomery County.
He's Michael Francis Mercurio, 52.
Montgomery County Fire and Rescue's Scott Graham says the apartment fire on the 5200 block of Crossfield Court broke around midnight and took about 10 minutes to extinguish.
When firefighters entered the apartment, they found Mercurio on the floor. He was taken to an area hospital where he died an hour later. No one else sustained injuries in the fire.
In all, 29 units were displaced -- in part due to non-working utilities. Investigators are currently working to determine the origin and cause.
Graham says when fire crews arrived there was fire showing from one of the apartment's balconies.
