Paper airplanes weren't going anywhere and this veteran manufacturer needed to launch a new product that fit its capabilities. This line of do-it-yourself paper cars with a high-gloss realistic finish gives children a sense of ownership and achievement and the junkyard theme reinforces the concept that found items can have a useful second life.

It took a coordinated effort between industrial designers and engineers to solve several technical issues leading to the development of the first portable planer with a 13" wide cutting capacity. Moving the carriage height adjustment wheel from the top to the side did two things. It enabled the user to pass the board over the top so that it could be inserted again if necessary and it gave this planer a distinctive look.

This device is so simple it begs the age-old question, "Why didn't someone think of this before?" The injection-molded PVC rubber gripper keeps extension ladders from slipping and skidding when they are resting against curved surfaces of any kind. The design achieves simplicity, versatility and durability.

Runners want to know two things - how far and how fast - and this sport watch from Nike delivers on both counts. A separate speed sensor attaches to shoelaces with a secure clip and elastic strap and transmits data to the watch. This lightweight, durable device is designed to convey speed, accuracy and security through its soft form and its stretched elastic retention system. An angled dot-matrix display can be read while on the move and a stainless steel bezel provides additional protection to the crystal while also functioning as the antenna.
Even real mountain bikers would use this light-looking, effective mudguard that easily attaches to 95% of bikes made while enhancing the aerodynamic look of the bike. The Rockrider, which attaches to the brakeplots, avoids the problems of other mudguards that are awkwardly fixed on the seatpost.

Look ma no hands! Those who use exercise bikes are not necessarily cyclists, yet stationery bikes have continued to mimic the mobile model. By removing the handlebars and shifting the support to the back, this bike better suits the needs of its users who are often overweight. Removing the front cut production costs by half and slashed the price to $140. While the rest of the fitness product market grew at a 2% rate, this bike rolled to a 55% increase in sales in the year after it was introduced.
Client: Polaroid Corp.
Polaroids have always been a hit at slumber parties and now the phenomenal success of this slim updated instant camera proves they are still party animals. Holdable and hip, this camera breaks boundaries in photographic technologies to deliver a mini-scale image with a sticky back that becomes an instant stick anywhere image. Its manual operation is simple and fool-proof yet allows young users to play with three light control settings.

OXO decided there was room in the non-stick market for a higher quality utensil that is meant to be displayed. The company added its signature rubber good-grip design but addressed other issues observed during research. The OXO tools are a half-inch longer to put more distance between the user and the hot pan. More nylon was added to prevent warping when left in a boiling pot.

The rabbit wins again with this new version of the lever-pull corkscrew invented in 1983 by a Texan with many oil-drill patents. The original sold for $150 but the redesigned model retails for $80 and boasts ergonomically sculpted lines that create the "bunny" profile. Grip pads were installed on the top and bottom of the top handle to improve leverage and a rubberized texture was added to all surfaces. Working parts were designed for fast assembly on a mass production line to meet the $80 target price.

Divers are pleasantly surprised to see a rich array of aquatic life and the remaining amphora and anchors from the ancient sea trade route.Boat trips and yacht chartersSunsail and a host of other yacht charter companies are based at the cosmopolitan marina. This is the perfect starting point for a bareboat sailing holiday exploring the Bodrum Peninsula and beyond.Daily gulet trips to the surrounding islands and bays, and trips to the Greek Island of Kos and Kalimnos can be arranged here. MarinaThe marina was opened in 2003 and is well worth the visit.

Project Background
Table of Contents
This evaluation design guide is part of a larger United States Air Force Family Advocacy Program (USAF-FAP) evaluation project conducted by Glenda Kaufman Kantor, University of New Hampshire, and John Landsverk, San Diego State University. This project was supported through a cooperative agreement between the National Network on Family Resiliency (NNFR), Cooperative State Research, Education and Extension Service (CREES), United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), and USAF-FAP under USAF-FAP/NNFR-USDA Special Project Contract #95-EXCA-3-0414.
The contributions of AFMOA/SGOF Family Advocacy, Colonel John Nelson, Lieutenant Colonel Carla Monroe-Posey, and the Program Managers and staff of AFMOA/SGOF are gratefully acknowledged. We are also extremely appreciative of the assistance provided by all the USAF and Family Advocacy staff at the bases, as well as the families who participated in the evaluation.
In its original form this evaluation design guide was specifically tailored for needs of the US Air Force Family Advocacy Program. Craig M. Allen, Research Director, NNFR Family Violence Projects, has edited the guide to make it widely available to a variety of family violence researchers, advocates, and family violence prevention and intervention program specialists.

The Economist Intelligence Unit has revised its forecasts for the Middle East and North Africa in light of the current popular uprisings in the region.
Unsurprisingly, it?s not looking so good for the countries where violence has been widespread, but it?s great for the big oil exporters.
Of course, it?s not as simple as that since some of the oil exporters are also those affected by protests and the state?s violent reaction to them. Take, for example, Bahrain, Syria and Yemen.
All three countries are oil exporters and would ostensibly benefit from the higher oil prices that this crisis has brought about. But all three have suffered the political turmoil.
Bahrain has benefited from help from its Saudi neighbour, both in terms of troops and economic activity ? the majority of Bahrain?s oil revenue comes from a shared field with Saudi Arabia ? but it will likely suffer from a drop in tourism, real estate investment and a decline in the financial services sector. The EIU has therefore revised growth downwards from 4.3 in 2011 to 2.9 and in 2012, from 5.2 to 3.3.
The situation in Syria has worsened since the latest revisions, so the EIU will again be revising downwards its growth predictions for this country. The government?s continued violent reaction to protestors is likely to affect oil exports, tourism and domestic spending.
Yemen continues to look unstable. While it will benefit from the start-up of liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports, as long as the president?s post looks precarious, the rest of the economy will suffer.
Perhaps surprisingly, Egypt and Tunisia are not thought to be faring as badly as one might think. The reason for this is owing mainly to the relatively peaceful nature of the revolutions and the lack of damage to the country?s infrastructure and state institutions. While both countries have suffered from a downfall in tourism and restrictions on foreign exchange transfers, the EIU is confident about continued growth in 2012.
Needless to say, the situation in Libya looks dire and the prediction is for a significant contraction.
The big winners have been Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Iraq, who have all benefited from higher oil prices.

Comfortable and easy to ride, the safety becomes the most popular cycle ever.
Like most new technologies, the safety bicycle was far from perfect. Builders were able to solve most of the problems by fine-tuning their designs and production techniques. Other problems, like the increased vibration and road shock caused by the large reduction in wheel size, were more challenging.
Several manufacturers devised safeties that incorporated shock-absorbing springs in the frame. The Linley and Biggs "Whippet" (810220) introduced in the mid-1880s was one of the first and probably the most popular of the spring-frames. Although this type of bicycle continued to be made for a number of years, a simpler solution was provided by John Boyd Dunlop when he reinvented the pneumatic tire in 1888. With the addition of the shock-absorbing pneumatic tire, the bicycle became a safe, versatile and reliable means of transportation that virtually anyone could master.
Thanks to effective promotion, a new cycling craze was born that lasted until 1900 and grew to encompass millions of people around the world.

What Barometers Measure
Comparing Barometer Changes
Once you know what the average atmospheric pressure should be, following weather is one step closer. Barometers measure pressure in several units, usually inches or millibars. For the sake of efficient demonstration, let's assume the average pressure of a given area is 29 inches. Here's what can happen to that barometer reading:
- No Change: If that reading stays at or very near 29 inches, that means the weather in the area is stable. No changes are occurring.
- Increase: As the pressure increases, air is becoming heavier and more stable. When barometer readings go above 29 inches, weather generally gets warmer, even muggier. Because the air mass is not going anywhere, urban areas may experience smog.
- Decrease: Conversely, as barometer readings fall, fast-moving low pressure air is coming in. Usually associated with winds and storms, low barometers tell a definite change is on the way.
Some barometers have weather indications inscribed on the meter face. This excellent tool for explaining readings make barometers more accessible to the general public.
Barometer Exceptions
Keep in mind that there are exceptions to reading barometers. Develop skills through daily comparisons of barometer readings and observed weather. Keep a log of barometer readings and refer to it frequently. Over time, experience in forecasting weather can make anyone a decent amateur (perhaps professional) meteorologist.
For more helpful information on all things weather, browse through WeatherInstruments.com for some great insight into a wonderful hobby.

CN Tower, Canada
Photograph by Jim Bradford, The Canadian Press
A bolt of lightning strikes the CN Tower, once the tallest free-standing building in the world, in Toronto, Canada. Tall buildings are usually equipped with lightning rods to give the electricity from a lightning strike, up to one billion volts, a safe path to the ground.
Lightning Panorama
Photograph by Ingram Publishing/Getty Images
Bolts of lightning descend like tentacles from a storm-roiled sky. Benjamin Franklin discovered in 1752 that lightning is actually electricity. In his now-famous experiment, he sent a kite with a metal key tied to the string up into a thunderstorm. Sparks leaping from the key confirmed his hunch about lightning.
Texas Thunderstorm
Photograph by Scott M. Lieberman, Associated Press
Lightning flashes within a cloud near Tyler, Texas. Cloud-to-cloud lightning is one of the most common types; it travels between positive- and negative-charged areas of clouds.
Groton, Connecticut
Photograph by Todd Gipstein, National Geographic
Bolts of lightning flash in the night during a thunderstorm in Groton, Connecticut. The myth that lightning doesn't strike the same place twice is just that—a myth. If enough charge remains after an initial lightning strike, another bolt can follow the same path, causing the flickering effect seen in some lightning strikes.
Volcano-Cloud Lightning
Photograph by Steve and Donna O'Meara, National Geographic
Volcanic lightning is rare, and lightning between thunderstorms and ash clouds even more so. In this photo, taken in May 2009, lightning flashes between a thunderstorm and the eruption plume from Rabaul volcano on New Britain Island in Papua New Guinea.
New Mexico Lightning

Lightning erupts from a purple cloud over Roswell, New Mexico.
Forked Lightning Bolt

Mother Nature paints an electric-blue sky with a bold twist of lightning. Lightning and thunder occur simultaneously, but because light travels faster than sound, we see lightning first. Count the seconds between a flash of lightning and a clap of thunder and divide by five to estimate how far away in miles the storm is. Divide by three for kilometers.
Lightning and Giraffe

Cloud-to-cloud lightning illuminates the silhouette of a giraffe and trees. Central Africa has the most lightning activity in the world.

Lightning Strikes the Big Apple

White lightning strikes between two buildings in New York City. Lightning often strikes a high point in a given area, whether it is a tall building or a person, but not necessarily the tallest thing around, as shown in this photo.
Connecticut Lightning

Cloud-to-cloud lightning lights up the night sky over a small town in Connecticut.

A horizontal bolt of lightning tries to lasso Chimney Rock, also called Jackson Butte, in Colorado.
Lightning at Night, Walton, Nebraska
Photograph by Joel Sartore, National Geographic
Whips of lightning crack the sky near rural Walton, Nebraska. Because a flash of lightning is actually multiple strokes that occur in a fraction of a second, time exposure photographs like this best capture these rapid-fire displays.
Twilight Lightning

Lightning crackles between clouds in the distance off the coast of the Cumberland Island National Seashore in Georgia.

A branch of orange lightning strikes the ground under red-tinged clouds at night along the Sante Fe trail.
Vinales Valley, Cuba

Lightning streaks across the sky over Vinales Valley, Cuba. Lightning can travel up to 93,000 miles (150,000 kilometers) per second and reach temperatures of 54,000 degrees Fahrenheit (30,000 degrees Celsius), more than four times hotter than the surface of the sun.

Learn about and register for upcoming CLA Programs and Workshops.
Registration is open to the public.
Adaptive Leadership is a practical leadership framework that helps individuals and organizations adapt and thrive in challenging environments. It is being able, both individually and collectively, to take on the gradual but meaningful process of adaptation. It is about diagnosing the essential from the expendable and bringing about a real challenge to the status quo.
When you realize that your organization's aspirations—the innovations and progress you want to see—demand responses outside the current capacities, Adaptive Leadership is the framework you need to effectively close the gap and make your aspirations reality. It provides a disciplined approach to do more for what you care most about.
Adaptive Leadership is purposeful evolution in real time.
Because adaptive change generates resistance and exercising leadership can be both difficult and dangerous, those who lead must be well prepared to work within a "productive zone of disequilibrium."
CLA has developed a methodology called Case-in-Point; that make progress on real, deadlocked and often emotionally charged business challenges in real time. It uses any group—workshop discussion, coaching session, task force meeting—as an opportunity to observe dynamics, connect them to the challenges, and practice Adaptive Leadership behaviors.
Case-in-point; is a distinctive element of CLA's work with clients and is often a central element in why we have been engaged.
The most common leadership mistake is treating Adaptive Challenges as if they were technical problems. Technical problems can be solved by an authority or expert. They have a known solution.
Adaptive Challenges are quite different. They have no known solution – the skills and answers are outside your repertoire. Adaptive Challenges are those you have to grow into solving and require mobilizing people's hearts and minds to operate differently. Luckily, these skills can be learned regardless of position or function.
Leading effectively requires recognizing both the adaptive and technical aspects of a situation and tailoring your efforts accordingly.
Every organization faces two competing demands: it must execute its current activities and adapt those same activities to face future opportunities and challenges. These two tasks of managing for efficiency or effectiveness and leading the organization through change correspond to the two functions of Authority and Leadership. Few organizations or individuals can do both well.
Since the bottleneck to growth for most organizations is the depth and breadth of leadership, leadership pathways often need to be created for those with and without formal authority. By separating the functions of leadership and authority, you can more easily build integrated competencies across an organization, which is critical to create new and sustained value.

Janesville police say a woman found dead in a home was the victim of an apparent homicide.
A Janesville Gazette report says no one has been arrested, but a man who was in the house was taken to a hospital with unspecified medical issues.
Deputy Chief Danny Davis says officers were called to the home Saturday about 3 a.m. to check on a female who was reportedly late getting home. Police forced open a door and found the woman dead inside.
Davis says an autopsy will reveal the cause of death, but police are confident they're investigating a homicide. He says the public isn't in danger.
The man's medical condition hasn't been released. Davis says it's not immediately clear whether he played any role in the apparent homicide.

text: One of our favorite albums ever on the legendary ESP label – and a key session in the best "new thing" mode of the 60s! The New York Art Quartet were a short live collaboration between trombonist Roswell Rudd, saxophonist John Tchicai, bassist Lewis Worrell, and percussionist Milford Graves – but their legacy in this one album is almost greater than that of other combos who recorded more frequently at the time. The sound is similar to the best "spacious" groups of the new thing years – such as the Archie Shepp/Bill Dixon work, or some of the looser sides by the New York Contemporary Five – a group that featured Shepp and Tchicai. Leroi Jones (Amiri Baraka) makes a key guest appearance on the title "Black Dada Nihilismus" – reciting his writings alongside the group's somber instrumental musings – and other titles include "Short", "Rosmosis", and "No 6".

Reviews for Tal Bachman
Add New Review About The Artist
TAL BACHMAN - Amazing Music | Reviewer: Anastasia Fardella | 5/25/12
I bought the Tal Bachman CD when it came out. I loved his music then and still love it now. Every song he's written is flawless. I wish he would write more songs. I would love to hear more of his music.
Awesome | Reviewer: John K. | 4/24/05
I have never heard anyone quite like Tal Bachman. The minute I heard "She's so High" I was hooked. And that isn't the only song I got hooked on. The whole C.D. is flawless in everyway. The lyrics are inspirational and the instruments are totally in kilter. I would give Tal Bachman a big 10.

Full detailed profile on Johnny Zacchara Played by Brandon Barash on General Hospital Daytime Soap Opera.
Brandon Barash (ABC)
Birthday: October 4 1979
At Pentonville, Olivia tells Johnny that Connie told Sonny about the situation when she couldn't find Carly. She wants him to swear this isn't a setup. He calls her on being worried about Sonny instead of Morgan. Olivia tells him he doesn't know what he's talking about. She explains she's just being a friend to Sonny after all they've been through recently. Johnny doesn't want her to get hurt. She apologizes for thinking he'd set Sonny up.
Connie meets Johnny at Pentonville. He wants to get a message to Carly. Connie refuses to get them back together. Johnny claims he just needs to warn Carly. Connie asks if Carly is in danger. Johnny replies, "Not Carly, Morgan." Johnny shares that Morgan is being targeted by online gamblers that may be enemies of Corinthos. Johnny encourages her to see Carly when she refuses to go to Sonny. Before leaving Connie apologies for what she did. He tells her to take care of herself and kisses her hand.
Olivia catches Sonny at Kelly's to tell him Lulu is okay but still missing. She offers to take him out to dinner for his birthday. Inside, TJ tells Shawn he and Molly are back on track. Shawn wants to lend him some money to take Molly out. TJ asks for $500 to take her to the prom. Shawn says he'll help out but TJ has to pull extra shifts.
AJ sees Carly at the Metro Court. She's mad at him because of Brenda. He apologizes but Carly says whatever he wants the answer is no. AJ asks for a favor anyway. She makes him confess his troubles with Elizabeth before telling him she's too busy to give him a quiet table for two. He grabs Carly, begging her to act like a human being for once. Outside the dining room Sonny hears them arguing and rushes in to break it up. Olivia announces they are there for Sonny's birthday. AJ baits Sonny about Michael sleeping with Brenda until Sonny punches him. He tries to stand up as their argument continues but collapses during an anxiety attack. Carly takes him out of the dining room. Meanwhile, Connie can't find Carly at the Metro Court and sees Sonny and Olivia dining. Olivia asks Sonny to make a wish. He blows out the candle and Connie is standing there when he looks up.
Patrick finds Britt crying at his door. She says she couldn't do it. He asks if that means she decided to keep the baby. Britt tells him she can't go through it alone and wants to take him up on his offer. She apologizes for the short notice and explains there is no one else in her life to ask for support. Patrick agrees to go after he cancels his date with Sabrina. Britt smiles to herself as he starts to make the call. She offers to go alone but he says it's okay.
Carly denies a collect call from Johnny Zacchara as Felix confirms a reservation for Sabrina for a hot date with the man of her dreams. Carly compliments Sabrina while Felix points out his fashion successes with Sabrina's new look. Felix leaves Sabrina in Carly's hands. Sabrina asks Carly for advice. Carly thinks Felix overstated her qualifications. She exclaims she's the last person Sabrina should ask for advice on men. Sabrina doesn't let her off the hook and Carly shares what she learned from her mistakes. Sabrina wants to know what happened in the end. Carly explains she's made enough mistakes in love that now she is getting phone calls from prison. Sabrina is sorry Carly's been so unlucky but compliments her on her confidence. Carly remembers how Jason played a part in that. She tells Sabrina Patrick is a great guy, she had her own fun when she dated him. A worried look crosses Sabrina's face. Carly adds it was a long time ago and leaves to get her champagne. Sabrina receives a call from Patrick cancelling their date. She apologizes to Carly for the cancellation. Carly sits down with the bottle of champagne. She has a glass alone. While conversing with Jason she deletes Johnny's info from her phone.
At Patrick's, Felix tells Britt, "Nice play," before they leave. Sabrina joins Felix to babysit. He hugs her, sorry that her date is ruined.
Patrick waits with Britt at the clinic.
Maxie confronts Ellie at GH threatening to fire her. Ellie pleads that she was only trying to help Maxie. Her pleading turns confrontational and she verbally attacks Maxie sure that she is hiding something. Maxie decides Ellie heard nothing and rudely dismisses her. Ellie receives a call from Spin as she's trying to get into the online hospital records. He asks if there is a problem. She confirms there is and he is just the person who can help. Ellie makes up a few lies convincing a hesitant Spinelli to help her gain access to the hospital mainframe before they hang up. She copies files to a flash drive and leaves.
Connie welcomes "New Maxie" after Maxie didn't show up at work. New Maxie is overwhelmed when Connie receives a phone call from Johnny. He asks to see her about something important. Connie explains things have changed and she's not the old Connie anymore. He doesn't care and wants her to come to Pentonville. Maxie arrives at Crimson and asks the new girl who she is. She introduces herself as the "New Maxie." Maxie confronts Connie who tells Maxie she's fired. Bits of old Kate rattle Maxie as she tries to explain. Connie corrects her a few times when she calls Connie "Kate." Connie decides to give Maxie another chance doubting New Maxie can handle it. On her way out she fires New Maxie in classic Kate fashion. Maxie learns Gwyneth's name and tells her to stick around as a fill-in when the baby comes. She's startled when she feels her baby move.
At Pentonville Johnny tells Connie she's there because someone's life depends on it.
Kristina stumbles upon Johnny at Pentonville. She tells him about Connie in court and Johnny wonders why she would do anything to help anyone but herself. Kristina thinks she did it for Sonny. Johnny scoffs but Kristina tells him things are changing between them. She is led off to sign in and he thinks 500 hours of the next 20 years won't be so bad.
Johnny asks Starr to come to his cell before he goes to Pentonville. He is happy for her and Michael. She admits Michael saved her, but she will always think about what her life would have been like with her first great love. Johnny hands her some papers. He wants her to do something good with it.
From his cell, Rafe tells Johnny that John killed his mom, not him. Johnny isn't judging – he killed his own grandfather. Rafe insists he is innocent. Johnny asks the officer to go easy on Rafe and give him his food. Later, Molly sneaks in to see Rafe. He insists he didn't do it. He hated being dragged all over but he loved his mom. Molly doesn't think John did it either, but Rafe swears he saw him do it. An officer gets Molly out of there. TJ finds her and questions if she was with Rafe. Later, John pays Rafe a visit and insists he didn't kill Alison. Together, he wants to figure out who did.
At the courthouse, Sonny shares with Shawn that Connie is pressing charges to drive him away. Shawn offers to keep Connie under wraps for a bit, but Sonny refuses. Shawn accuses him of going soft. Alexis tells them things don't look good for Kristina. Meanwhile, Kristina and Johnny chat. She knows he never meant to hurt Starr's family, but she meant for Connie to die. Later, Michael asks Johnny if he gave the ELQ info to Sonny. Johnny would never help Sonny take anyone down. Inside, Michael sits with Sonny, who again insists he did not leak the story. The judge calls the case to order and Connie runs in yelling that Kristina is not guilty. Later, Starr arrives in time for Johnny's hearing.
Michael visits Johnny in jail. Johnny apologizes for what he did to Starr and asks about Carly. He encourages Michael to be there for her. Michael also wants to be there for AJ and maybe Johnny has the proof he needs. Johnny has the proof but accuses Michael of compromising himself, dealing with someone he despises for a company he doesn't even care about. Michael wants to make his own mistakes with AJ. And Carly will never take Johnny back anyway so he has nothing to lose.
Todd wakes in his cell after dreaming of Carly. He tells Johnny how great Carly's new haircut looks. Johnny is sure she wasn't at Todd's arraignment to support him but rather show him what he was missing. Todd reminds Johnny she hasn't cared either way to visit him at all. Todd tells him he is going to Ferncliff instead of Pentonville and soon after that, home. Johnny assures him that no matter what, Carly is through with him. Later, John arrives to accompany Todd to Ferncliff. Later, Michael visits Johnny and asks for help.

Gastonia Fire Department
Mission Statement
The mission of the Gastonia Fire Department is to save lives and property and proudly serve the citizens and visitors of the City of Gastonia.
General Information
In 2011, the Department responded to more than 8200 calls. The Gastonia Fire Department strives to meet the benchmark set by The Center for Fire Accreditation International which recommends that a department respond to 90% of fire calls within 7 minutes and 20 seconds or less. The Gastonia Fire Department currently responds to all fire calls within 7 minutes and 5 seconds, 90% of the time.
A Brief History
The City's first firefighters were members of the volunteer company formed in 1901 with George G. Glenn as Chief. Equipment was scarce. The fire hose was wound on a small hand reel which had to be pushed or carried to the fire. In 1905, the City bought a team of "fine fire horses" and L. L. Jenkins donated a fire wagon and some harnesses. Today, the City has eight fire stations and more than 141 firefighters operating state-of-the-art suppression, ladder, rescue, and hazardous material vehicles.
For more information about the Department or its programs, see the Quick Links to the right or contact:

- So fab!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/19/2014The sushi was so fresh! Fish was amazing! The wednesday night specials were to die for and the service was above and beyond!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AmazingsteakguyVIPDined on 10/9/2014Went to the bar on a Thursday late night as a single diner. Wow. The Hawaiian sashimi special was by far the best I have ever experienced. Great 1/2 priced sake special.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- LoveCmw1112Dined on 9/12/2014This is the only place I eat sushi at! Love Chiba's!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great for occasionsnim61Dined on 9/6/2014Great place to have a special occasion, complimented with great food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/25/2014Great staff, they were very friendly and knowledgable about the menu. They recommended some great items and was happy with some of the chooses. However there were some items that didn't work due to the overwhelming fishy taste (didn't taste the freshest it could of been). Prices weren't bad compared to some of the beautiful rolls that they had. Would recommend the Mardi Gras Roll, would not the Strawberry Roll.Special Features:
- Sushi-lovers' paradiselivehead16Dined on 8/22/2014The service at Chiba was very good, even if the kitchen was a bit slow. The ambience is fine, but the noise level is high, as is typical of many newer NOLA restaurants. But the absolute star of the show was the food. So many varieties of sushi and sake that you'll need ten visits just to try everything that interests you. Everything was perfectly prepared, and some of the sushi was as exotic as anything I ate in Japan - rolls with caviar, Hawaiian fish, uni, strawberries, and on and on. The sake list is extensive and also features a number of unusual, high-end options. If you're a true lover of Japanese cuisine, this is a must-visit spot.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good foodOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/13/2014Sushi tastes fresh til the very last bite! And the blueberry bread pudding is DELICIOUS!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The following 100 reviews are from the Chiba reviews archive.
- Best Sushi in NOLA!DrMarinoDined on 7/25/2014Tucked away on a quiet, quaint street, you could easily drive by Chiba. But if you like a variety of raw sushi (I'm from NY and I prefer all raw rolls, etc.) then you will be pleasantly surprised with Chiba. I had all "special" rolls, of which, the fish was freshly delivered that day. It was delicious and I will be back - again & again.Special Features:
- WallyDined on 7/19/2014The restaurant handled 14 of us without a hitch. Waitress was terrific and all enjoyed the food, including those that don't eat sushi.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Rare GEM!!!!DaveVIPDined on 7/15/2014The ambiance is excellent in that it is spacious , chic, and inviting.. The food here is outstanding.. We tried lobster ceviche which was light, delicious and well portioned. The rolls were all large and the cuts of sashimi not only fresh but the largest portion I have seen in the city. They also served lobster sashimi which is a delicacy not found many places. Be advised this is a whole Maine lobster served sashimi style so ask the waitress about presentation because the lobster will still be alive when served ( not for everyone) but hands down the finest way to eat this cuisine..All in all outstanding and tops the chart as one of the finest sushi establishments in the city!Special Features:
- Great Experiencemgp1981VIPDined on 7/14/2014I loved this place. The happy hour menu was phenomenal and made dinner and drinks affordable. I loved it. Also, the discount wine was very tasty. Lastly, the regular menu items were outstanding as well. Even though our meal was not much, our server was outstanding. I would highly recommend this place.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 7/4/2014Was not expecting to have such a great meal. Quite a few interesting things off the menu so be sure to ask about those. Extensive sake list that was helped by the staff, enough that this non-sake drinker ordered a bottle for the table. Great variety if fresh fish just opens up the options in dining. There is so much on the menu it will require a second tripSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Place!SassasaurDined on 6/4/2014Had a girl's night out with my best friend & had a terrific time. Great cocktail list & happy hour entree's were perfect for grazing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Chiba-ca was into sushi!LAwestDined on 5/21/2014This is some of the freshest fish you'll ever get outside of the Venice Marina. Even if you're a sushi neophyte there's plenty of other delicious stuff on this menu to satisfy. Right next door to great NOLA art and music at the Mapleleaf on Oak St.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Decent food, loud thoughUptownJohnVIPDined on 5/16/2014the acoustics are awful. Food is good - not great but definitely not bad.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just rightStarDined on 5/15/2014Although the food is nothing to bring home about, the overall experience was fantastic. About 1 of every 2 rolls we ordered were really good while the typical rolls were really just average.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Work dinnerFleurtyEmilyDined on 4/30/2014Met after work for a meeting. Loved the all night happy hour special as well as the prices. It was crazy busy so food took 30 minutes for a first course, but it was tasty. We enjoyed EVERYTHING except the Yam Tempura Roll. Boring and bland.Special Features:
- Great SushiOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 4/18/2014One of the few Sushi restaurants I would recommend in New Orleans.
- Great food, bad chairsOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 3/15/2014We love Chiba. It's one of the many great walkable places in our neighborhood. The food is so fresh and the service is great. But the chairs are incredibly uncomfortable. They look great so I understand why they purchased them. They fit the great ambiance of the place, but terribly uncomfortable to sit in. It won't stop us from going though!Special Features:
- I wish I loved this placeOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 3/14/2014There are some really great items on the menu but they pack people in so close together, it's hard to enjoy your meal or your company.Special Features:
- Pick A Different RestaurantUptownchowhoubdDined on 2/21/20147:45 reservation, and we were done with drinks & apps by around 8:05. Sushi didn't come out until 9:20. Sat there for 1 hour and 15 minutes waiting on food, with not a great deal of contrition on the part of the wait staff. When food finally came, one roll was missing. Unacceptable in a city where you can choose to go to Ninja, Mikimoto or Rock-N-Sake instead. This place needs to staff more sushi chefs to handle the tables they seat. Also, one of the loudest restaurants in the city. Had to shout to talk to people at our table.
- Nice new spotPepperwheelDined on 2/14/2014Food was absolutely excellent. I read that the service was a little shaky in the beginning, but it seems they have it under control as the experience was great. Will definitively go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Date NightChrisDined on 2/6/2014Went on what was probably the best date I have ever been on at Chiba. Had an awesome time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistently MARVELOUSJoshReyherVIPDined on 1/27/2014When I tell my daughters we are going out to dinner they say, Chiba? Started sampling other parts of the sushi menu, the Tataki, tartar and cerviche. All are amazing! I still say great for children but no later than 6:30 / 7 ish. The servers know us and have been extremely helpful with everything.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- California ApprovedCaliforniansVIPDined on 1/25/2014We just moved here from San Francisco. Not sure at all what sushi would be like so we gave Chiba a shot. To our surprise it was very very good! Now they forgot the appetizer until entrees arrived, but they comped them so it's okay. Drinks were good. No major complaints.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OutstandingSushiLoverDined on 1/23/2014Food, service, and atmosphere were outstanding!!! Truly a quility sushi place.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very Poor ServiceOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 1/18/2014Our waitress was absent-minded and inattentive. We joked that she was actually working as a waitress at the same time at another restaurant--far away--as it took her so long to do anything. To top things off, there was a problem in splitting up the bill, and it took about an hour just for us to pay.
- speciality sushi was a bit priceyahmedDined on 1/6/2014short rib tempura amazing! specialty sushi was 16$ for a roll of 8.. which was a bit pricey banana foster again really good. the owner was serving us... GREAT SERVICE!I would recommend this to a friend.
- 3 plus hours for dinner with reservflynavyDined on 12/25/2013We made a reservation and still waited 50 minutes for our seats. We them waited another 45 minutes for appetizers. Dinner for 6 people took over 3 hours. The food was good but not great. The 6 people were served in 3 groups of two over a 30 minute period. So the first two people were done eating by the time the last two received their meals. Definitely not worth the wait.
- Wouldn't recommendShaneBethDined on 12/25/2013We waited an hour and fifteen minutes for our food. Had we known the service would be so poor, we would've stayed at our hotel and had ramen noodles for dinner. Sushi was okay, not bad but certainly not worth the insane wait. They were severely understaffed; I have never been in a restaurant where all 30+ tables were filled and not a single one had any food.
- meh.anonymousDined on 12/25/2013Can't put my finger on it, but if I had to say, Chiba wasn't spectacular. Sushi was average, at above average prices. The drinks were on special, but nothing special about them. Service was friendly, but it took forever to get our food. I feel like a menu revitalization is in order. You're essentially paying for atmosphere. The ambiance is top-notch, but doesn't justify the prices. I would eat there again, but wouldn't recommend it above anywhere else.
- Delicious SpecialsDanielaKVIPDined on 12/11/2013Their Wednesday 4-midnight happy hour is great! Very good specials. Cocktails are all delicious. And their special appetizer of the day, sashimi with truffle oil. was phenomenal!Special Features:
- A very good Japanese restaurantAlexanderVIPDined on 11/26/2013The food was good though the portions are quite small. We liked everything and the server was extremely friendly and helpful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- chbalauraDined on 10/11/2013Great experience! I had sushi and my husband had steak. Perfect!Special Features:
- Pricey but worth itTraciSDined on 10/2/2013This sushi will cost you but is the best sushi in the city.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not amazing, but not badc0rndogsDined on 9/27/2013Had a pretty big group of us go and check this place out late on a Friday night. I think between us, we probably sampled a decent chunk of the menu. There were a couple of rolls that people ordered that seemed to be pretty popular across the whole table but I forget which they were. The steamed buns were pretty tasty in all flavors. The rest of the sushi was decent. Nothing really blew me away but it was all edible. There were a few random things that we ordered that only a couple people would try that weren't that great, but were more because of individual tastes than through any fault of the restaurant. The price is about what you would expect for sushi anywhere else, except the special rolls seemed a bit expensive.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious, but unbearably loud...FrequentDinerDined on 9/24/2013Sashimi entree outstanding. Delicious ceviches. Could not hear ourselves speak. A couple of service hiccups, which were remedied immediately.Special Features:
- Great place!Tmule777VIPDined on 9/20/2013Best fried rice in the city! The sushi is excellent. Every steamed bun is delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Our Goto SushiJoshReyherVIPDined on 9/19/2013We think it is the best quality fish in the city. Based on our service I think we are considered regulars. When we sit down our wine comes before we can even say please. I bring my family here almost weekly. My girls are young 5,4,and 3 so we arrive early don't stay past 6. When my wife and I came here for date night we had our regular waitress. Upon seeing us she said "Do you want you usual rush or are we taking it slow?"

In just over two years, JLS have sold more than two million albums, topped the singles charts five times and created one of the most spectacular live shows in pop. Runners up on 2008's X Factor, JLS are by far the series' most successful band, with more No.1s than any of the winners. 2010/11's Outta This World tour sold out 38 arena dates everywhere from Aberdeen to London's 02 and astonished audiences with some of the best props in pop, including a flying car and a robot defeated in a dance-off.
Tabloid fixtures from the moment they left X Factor, JLS are the defining British boy band of their generation, with fans from across the entertainment spectrum, from Tinie Tempah (with whom they collaborated last year) to James Cordon and Rio Ferdinand. You'll hear their hits on playlists from Radio 1 to Magic and 1Xtra and even see their faces of packets on condoms, since they famously teamed up with Durex for in a non-profit, safer-sex initiative aimed at teenagers over 16. Last year they launched the JLS Foundation which works with various charities in the UK.
JLS, however, are only just getting started. With the release in November 2011 of their third album, 'Jukebox', the screams are about to get louder. Already 'Jukebox' has spawned its first No.1 in 'She Makes Me Wanna', an addictive, summer disco smash featuring Californian electro star Dev. Written with RedOne in London in March, on the first day of recording sessions for Jukebox, 'She Makes Me Wanna' began the ball rolling on an album that will not only secure JLS' position as Britain's best-loved pop band, but bring their music to a wider audience. "We called the album 'Jukebox' because there are all sorts of songs on there," says Aston. "We spent six months recording – in London, L.A. and Copenhagen – with only one rule: there would be no boundaries. There are songs on the album fans wouldn't expect from us and songs that couldn't be by anyone else. Vocally, we pushed ourselves more than ever before. You won't have heard me sing higher, or Marvin lower, but there are also more complex harmonies. Production-wise, we weren't scared to try anything out."
'Jukebox' still boasts plenty of the teen-friendly tracks JLS fans expect, except they're smarter and sharper than before. 'So Many Girls' relentlessly changes tempo, lays close harmonies over squally synths, sneaks in a Bieber-style, vocal interlude and has a helium-high chorus and a handful of false endings. 'Teach Me How To Dance', produced in London with RedOne and BeatGeek, is multi-tracked, dancefloor-friendly fun with rave synths, house beats and breakdowns. 'Killed By Love', written by the band with Chris Braide, is a show-stopping ballad featuring a full live band.
Meanwhile, midtempo love song 'Go Harder', produced by Cutfather in Copenhagen, plays up the boys' individual voices and includes 'Jukebox's' most obvious 'lighters-aloft' moment. "Put your hands in the air/And leave 'em up there," insists the chorus. Come JLS's 2012 arena tour, crowds won't require prompting.

Good morning, world!
Fresh off a weekend that went by entirely too quickly, I sit here this Monday morning in a slight bit of pain. A number of us Newsplexians gathered yesterday morning for a game of touch football and I realized that my body can't do in its 30s what it could in its 20s. Despite the aches that run through my back and legs it was a gorgeous day for football, with a picturesque landscape out at Darden-Towe Park. The leaves are just about to reach their peak, and further proof lay in the myriad of yellows, reds, and oranges on the hillsides. A great thing this season of Fall is, but I was reminded by my calendar that Christmas is less than two months away. It's time to get a jump on buying presents!
Without further ado, here's what's on my mind today. It's a short list, I realize, but one event has dominated my recent time. Read below.
It should be noted first and foremost that Cheryn Stone is sitting atop the leader board for the Newsplex Pigskin Pick `em contest! She's leading the way with 71 points while I'm right behind in second with 70 points. I would personally like to thank the Steelers defense for pulling through in the clutch yesterday afternoon, giving me one of the best weeks I've had all contest long. Bo's in fourth allowing us GMC'ers to represent well.
A word of advice for iPhone users who use Twitter. I've noticed a lot of people using the GPS coordinates for their location. Be careful which coordinates you put in there; it doesn't take more than entering them into Google to find where you're at – even if it's your own home.
A big kudos to my alma mater, the Penn State Nittany Lions, for FINALLY winning in the Big House against Michigan this past weekend for the first time since 1996. I was a freshman in college that year. That was a long time ago!
Is it me, or have the computer gremlins been coming out in droves? We've had problems with many of our weather computers and even I had some problems with my home computer last week.
I had the opportunity to spend the first half of last week at the annual National Weather Association meeting in Norfolk. It's a conference that brings together those in the field of meteorology with the intention of education, advancement, and enlightenment. I always enjoy these conferences not only for the know-how that I bring back to my weather center, but for the camaraderie and fellowship of fellow meteorologists from around the country. I ran into friends of mine who graduated from Penn State with me whom I had not seen since graduation. I also caught some people not seen or talked to since my last attended conference in Reno, Nevada, two years ago. There were plenty of opportunities to meet new people – and the wealth of ideas and thoughts made my three days very worthwhile. I could go on and on about the people I spent time with but will refrain for fear of forgetting someone. The best I can say is to those I had the pleasure of seeing and meeting, it was a blast. Hopefully we can do it all again in Tucson next year! And to those who tune in regularly to the Charlottesville Newsplex family of stations, you're gonna see some really cool things the next few months. It's all designed around one idea – giving you central Virginia's most accurate forecast.
Three, two, one, fade out -

A rare footage of Stevie Wonder's duet with the late Ella Fitzgerald will be included in the diva's revived classics album "We All Love Ella: Celebrating The First Lady Of Song".
Grammy award winning song "You Are the Sunshine of My Life" was recorded in a duet version between Wonder and Fitzgerald in 1977. This song is among latest additions for the album that is due June 5 via Verne. Other artists also paying tribute through their covers are Michael Buble, KD Lang, Diana Krall, Natalie Cole, Gladys Knight, Queen Latifah, Hank Jones, Ledesi, Dianne Reeves, Linda Ronstadt, Etta James and Lizz Wright.
A concert for "We All Love Ella: Celebrating The First Lady Of Song" was conducted recently and will air on PBS on June 6. The concert sees Wonder playing "Too Close for Comfort", a memorable song that featured Fitzgerald and Joe Williams as a duet back in 1956.

WASHINGTON - Texting while driving is the No. 1 killer of American teens.
The not-for-profit Texting Awareness Foundation hopes that statistic from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is enough to convince drivers to put away their phones when they are driving.
As part of Distracted Driver Awareness Month, the foundation released these facts:
- Answering a text takes away your attention for about 5 seconds, which is enough time to travel the length of a football field.
- When a driver is texting, steering capability decreases by 91 percent.
- While texting, reaction time decreases by 35 percent.
- About 6,000 deaths and a half a million injuries are caused by distracted drivers every year.
- Text messaging creates a crash risk 23 times worse than driving under normal circumstances.

Director of Athletics Don Lang proudly announced that three North Shore High School senior athletes recently signed National Letters of Intent (NLI). A Letter of Intent is a binding agreement between a prospective student-athlete and an institution. Once signed, the institution agrees to provide that student with financial aid (if eligible under the NCAA rules) for one academic year in exchange for that student's agreement to attend the institution for one academic year. Additionally, all colleges and universities that participate in the NLI program agree to not recruit these student athletes once he or she signs the NLI.
Congratulations went out to Nicole Galluzzo, gymnastics, who will be attending the University of Pittsburgh; Kristen Giovanniello, lacrosse, who signed a Letter of Intent for Dartmouth College; and Kathleen Lennon, lacrosse, who will be a freshman at the University of Albany in the fall. All three of these young women expressed their excitement and joy to achieve this prestigious accomplishment for all of their hard work and dedication.
At the National Letter of Intent ceremony, Mr. Lang praised these student-athletes and encouraged parents, faculty, administrators and friends in the audience to recognize and celebrate their tremendous success.

This snack or dessert is quick and easy and sure to woo any company or please any crowd and just make your mouth water on a night snuggled up watching t.v. It is an African dish that I learned in the 7th. grade and was a hit when I served it several years ago in my fathers restaurant. I like it because of the taste you get from such a quick prep time and cook time, also the presentation can be beautiful! So if you love caramel and bananas with whip topping then try it out. One thing I do advise is this... I take my bananas and butter each slice individually, after melting the butter and before starting to fry I use a brush and make sure and coat front and back very well and while cooking I add a bit more, you can judge when cooking but I like mine to be a bit more buttery so you can adjust to taste. I also use 2 bananas per person as it is very filling and rich. This recipe is very flexible as to fit your palate, I do hope you enjoy! :-)

If you need more care after you leave the hospital, ask your insurance carrier about home health care services.
You may also want to get "Meals on Wheels" for a time. Most insurance plans have social workers to help you connect to resources in your community.
Walk with a friend, or your spouse. Walk outdoors in good weather along a route you enjoy. Walk indoors in bad weather through a mall or other enclosed space.
Talking about what you feel is one important way you can come to terms with what's happening to you. Talk to your health care team, too. They can suggest counseling,
support groups, and other resources.

A Method for Reproducing Frontal Sound Field of 22.2 Multichannel Sound Utilizing a Loudspeaker Array Frame
NHK has been developing Super Hi-Vision (SHV), an ultrahigh-definition TV system that has a 7,680 x 4,320 pixel video image and a 22.2 multichannel three-dimensional sound system. A loudspeaker array frame (LAF) integrated into a flat panel display can synthesize wavefront of frontal sound source and localize sound images on the display and back of the viewer by using technology to simulate sound propagation characteristics. This makes it possible to listen to 22.2 multichannel sound without installing 24 discrete loudspeakers surrounding the listener in the room. In this paper we describe the prototype of the LAF and its performance focusing on frontal sound reproduction.

I bought these for my husband who has ringing in his ears as a result of a head injury from a car accident. Doctors could not do anything for him and told him he would have to "live with it"! I researched products on the Internet and came across Ring Stop at I-Herb and bought him 3 bottles to try over a course of several weeks to see if they would help - they DID! He won't be without them now. I did try a different product when he ran out of the Ring Stop but it did not work. He was delighted to get the Ring Stop again. I am so delighted that I-Herb is now carrying these in the larger quantity (before I was ordering the 60 capsules and had to buy more bottles). Now they are offering the 180 capsules which is a better deal! Thanks, I-Herb! RL in North Carolina

After two weeks of taking them these pills don´t help me at all. I have tried some alternate methods to stop ringing in the ears and they are so much more effective. Try something different.
This product really helps....

I stocked up on the larger size in case they run out again. My husband can't live without it.
It seems to be working/helping

It's only been two and a half weeks since I started taking Ring Stop for tinnitus which had gotten quite severe in the past month. The ringing hasn't completely stopped but it is significantly less. I've also been getting more sleep and have reduced my stress which I believe is helping with the tinnitus. Best wishes to others seeking relief from the ringing and buzzing!
