*denotes best bet. For entertainment only.]]>
Main reason I didn't want to wait and post is this weekend could be huge for this young program and I just had to type about it! Penn State has traveled up to New England (don't worry, no racism here) to take on #4 UMass Lowell. This is likely the toughest opponent so far for a Penn State squad that has opened the season 5-1-2. No, those are not two OT/Shootout losses. In non-conference play ties still exist, and a meaningless shootout does still take place. The lone loss was in a game where Penn State blew a 2-1 lead late in the 3rd. Here are a couple notes for the two game series this weekend:
Who? #4 UMass Lowell
When? 7:15 PM Friday / 7:00 PM Saturday
Where? Lowell, Massachusetts
Lighting Mu(m)ps – UMass Lowell enters the weekend leading D1 hockey with 4.22 goals per game. Penn State enters the weekend tied for 2nd with 3.88 goals per game.
You Are The Special – Could special teams determine the outcome in either game? Penn State enters tied for 4th best power play clicking at just over 27% (10 for 37). UMass Lowell is right behind at 9 for 35 (25.7%). Problem here is neither team takes many penalties. Penn State averages 9.12 PIM/G where UMass Lowell averages 8.89. Penn State does have one shorty, but UMass Lowell has already netted 3.
No Place Like Home – Penn State has opened the season 5-0-1 at home in the house that Pegula built (probably the best Pegula team too). Tonight starts a critical and long road trip. The next 7 games for Penn State are on the road and that does not count the two in Pittsburgh at the end of December. We will get quite a look at how this team manages to play on the road. A rough start to this string of games knowing you are weeks away from being home again could do quite a bit of damage to the great start.

Burnett actually turned down a $12.5 million dollar option with the Phillies, apparently because he didn't like playing there.
Former @phillies Pitcher AJ Burnett signs 1 year deal W #pirates. I was told he could not stand it w Phillies. Gets 8.5M.
— Howard Eskin (@howardeskin) November 14, 2014
It'll be nice to see how badly people backtrack on Burnett. I'm still not sure he's the pitcher that the Pirates let go. He walked a lot of batters, struck out fewer, gave up lots of hits, and struggled overall.
Still, he pitched through injury and he played for a defensively challenged team. Did he miss Russell Martin in Philly? Probably. He won't have him here either but he'll have Francisco Cervelli, another good pitch framer.
He's not getting paid a lot and the Pirates definitely need arms.
Hopefully this version of "Batman Returns" is like the movie, a sequel that didn't necessarily suck.]]>

Here was my initial reaction when I heard about this deal.
Cervelli? That's a big meh.
— Rich (@shamtown) November 13, 2014
Since then I've softened a bit on the trade. Cervelli is not a bad catcher. He's an injury risk, he's not even nearly a sure thing, but he is talented.
He's not Russell Martin. He costs a fraction of Russell Martin though. And I think it's not out of the realm of possibility that he replaces some of what Martin brought to the table. Check out this article Grantland posted in 2013.
It seems like the Pirates and Yankees share a focus on pitch framing, how else can you explain the interest in these three guys?
Here is a quick list of Free Agent Catchers from Cot's.
John Buck – 0.0 WAR
Ryan Doumit – -0.4 WAR
Nick Hundley – 0.1 WAR
Gerald Laird – -0.5 WAR
Russell Martin – 5.5 WAR
Jeff Mathis – 0.1 WAR
Wil Nieves – 0.7 WAR
Ronny Paulino – DNP
A.J. Pierzynski – -0.9 WAR
David Ross – -0.3 WAR
Geovany Soto – 0.2 WAR
Cervelli had a 1.1 WAR. The Pirates have to bank on him playing though, which hasn't exactly been his strong suit. He's never played in 100 games, never started more than 80. That's not an insignificant problem.
Justin Wilson goes the other way. I could see him having some fine seasons but is that a major loss? He's not a closer. He's not a setup man. He's not even a seventh inning guy. He has great stuff, and if the Yankees can harness it he'll be a fine reliever.
Basically the Pirates got about as much as you can expect out of a pretty shitty market. Available catchers are quite literally Russell Martin then nothing. Therefore I take back my "big meh" and replace it with an "okay, let's see what happens".
Is the team worse than last year right now? Yes. How much worse remains to be seen.]]>

Some notes: So far this year, two players went 0-7 for the week. No one has gone 7-0.
All 16 of us had Georgia last week. Oops.
Only three out of 16 of us hit their best bet last week and only one has a winning best bet record. Oops.
For the first time this season we have a new leader at the top of the standings. We also have a new leader at the bottom.]]>
Speaking of Corbett, election tomorrow. Don't forget to do your civic duty by voting for someone bought and paid for by big business. Someone who wants nothing more to eff you in the a.
Anyway. Pirates will lose Martin. He's not signing that offer. Done deal. Bye. Enjoy the draft pick.
That's going to piss a lot of people off. I'm not necessarily one of them, despite my love affair with Martin last season.
More curious to me is Francisco Liriano. A $15.3 million, one year deal probably seems awfully tempting for Liriano.
So who is responsible for Liriano's turnaround? Obviously Liriano to begin with. Everyone always talks about coaches and catchers but the player is most responsible and that doesn't really ever seem to get mentioned.
Jim Benedict. Jim Benedict is Jesus on this blog. Like A.J. Burnett before him, Liriano came in and spent time in Extended Spring Training. Like Burnett he resurrected his career. I don't think it's a coincidence at all. I think Jim Benedict died for our sins, came back three days later and just fucking stayed.
Ray Searage. You can't really deny the impact Searage has had on pitchers. He's been able to plug randoms dudes into random spots and get above the line performances from them.
Russell Martin. And that's the problem with Liriano coming back. How much of his "comeback" was Martin responsible for? It's impossible to answer probably but it's definitely not 0%. Will Liriano be Liriano without a guy that most people credit with the Pirates turnaround, last season's success, the flu vaccine, and the invention of the assembly line?
Liriano might not be great value at $15.3, and he's aging, and he's been known to get hurt, but it's not remotely unrealistic to think that's a reasonable market value.
I'd be surprised, but not stunned if he turns down this offer. He can always hit free agency next year.
Imagine if they both accepted? The Pirates would be in bankruptcy court within days.
In other news the Pirates outrighted John Axford, Jeanmar Gomez, and Chase d'Arnaud. That means they are all free agents.
If you've been reading this site for a long time you know how much I loved d'Arnaud when he was drafted, and how I always had his back like a weird junior high secret admirer. We'll miss you here at TiGO Chase. I still say injuries ruined it for us all!]]>

What is this exactly?
Good question, theoretical reader in my head. This is the Assists and the One-Timers. The Assists will (hopefully) be me answering questions from you good folks that got suckered into reading these posts. They will hopefully be Pens-related (or even NHL-related), and will be thought-provoking, and will allow me to interact with all you great folks who take the time to read this regularly. The One-Timers, as you might imagine, are a bunch of short thoughts about the Pens and the NHL that really aren't worthy of long-form thoughts. Hopefully, this goes as well in practice as I believe it will in theory.
Let's give it a whirl.
The Assists
How long until (Paul) Martin is traded for a top-six forward? And who might that forward be? -Tim (@tstough)
Great question. Paul Martin is the Penguin most likely to be traded at this point for a top-six forward. He has many things about him that point to this outcome: He is in the last year of his contract, he is a "Bylsma guy", his cap hit is large (five million dollars), he is somewhat redundant on the roster, and he does not seem to want to stay with the team beyond this season. That would seemingly mean that he will be dealt before the trade deadline. How much before the deadline, though? That is the big question, and a lot of it depends on things that we cannot foresee, namely the health of the young defensemen in the Penguins system. Derrick Pouliot is rehabbing his shoulder currently, and he likely will need to be healthy and productive in the system for Jim Rutherford to feel comfortable moving Martin. Also, Brian Dumoulin and Scott Harrington need to be healthy and developing as expected for Martin to be expendable. Also, there cannot be a catastrophic injury to Letang, Maatta, Ehrhoff, or Despres in the next few weeks. Martin must remain with the team if any of those bad things were to occur. I don't expect them to happen, for the record, so I see Martin traded well before the deadline. Gun to my head, I think the week after Christmas will be the time that it happens.
As for the potential return in a trade for Paul Martin, that is a very tough question. The three Western Conference teams that I could see making a move: Minnesota, San Jose, and Vancouver. Radim Vrbata is the likely swap for the Canucks (equal money). Minnesota and San Jose would be a little different. Those teams would need to part with a young top-six guy, and would be hard pressed to do so, unless they were really ready to make a move for the Cup. Minnesota has Charlie Coyle and Mikael Granlund. San Jose has Tomas Hertl. But man, I can't see them moving those players.
Also, I don't see the Pens trading with an Eastern Conference squad.
Have they traded (Marc-Andre) Fleury yet? -Amy (@thenwchica)
I am sure this was meant at least half-jokingly, but I am sure there are some people out there wondering if MAF is going to be dealt this season. Honestly, it's not happening. Even if there isn't an extension signed by Fleury during the season, I don't see him being dealt. He will play out his existing contract, take the team as far as he is capable of, and potentially move on after the year. I am not excited at the possibility of MAF not playing his entire career in Pittsburgh. But if he does leave, it will be after the season, not during.
The One-Timers
-Pascal Dupuis is not human. There is no explanation to how he was able to even skate on his own on Friday. And then HE PLAYED SATURDAY NIGHT. How is that even possible? Like I said, not human.
-The loss to Dallas in the last minute of regulation was a difficult one for the Pens to take. But I loved that they learned from the loss, immediately turned around and held onto a late one-goal lead against the Islanders. A very positive development.
-The Isles game was a "measuring stick" game, as much as the fourth game of the year can be. Very low-risk, high-reward type of game. A loss would have been a learning experience more than anything. But they won, which had to be a confidence boost. Don't plan the parade. But feel good about the win, for sure.
-The Islanders definitely will be around all season (assuming health for their key guys). Halak instead of Nabokov means a world of difference.
-It was nice to see the PK go perfect against the Isles' power play, which only trailed the Pens in the rankings. The defensemen on the PK need to be strong against opposing power forwards. They were not against Anaheim. They showed positive signs against the Isles.
-It is nice to have a guy like Steve Downie protecting Sid and Geno for once, instead of driving them nuts four or five nights a year.
-But he does need to be wise when it comes to taking penalties. Not horrible at the moment, but he does need to be careful.
-Patric Hornqvist. Patric Hornqvist! Horny!!! The guy is fantastic, and a perfect fit for the team.
-This is a fun week ahead for the Pens. First matchup against the Flyers, followed by Thomas Greiss' Pens debut (more than likely) in Detroit Thursday, followed by the Pens' first game against James Neal since he was dealt to Nashville in June. Three fun games, with some healthy hate mixed in.
-There still may be growing pains coming for the Pens. Do not lose your mind if the team drops 5 of 6 soon. This is a new coach, a new system, and a lot of new faces still. Yes, things have looked great early. But this is not guaranteed to last. Just enjoy the ride. There is a long way to go…]]>

Jan. 2, 1968 K. J. MADDOCK 3,361,481
ROTATING CUTTER BIT Filed Oct. 18, 1965 INVENTOR. KENNETH J. MADDOCK United States Patent 3,361,481 ROTATING CUTTER BIT Kenneth J. Maddock, Frankfort, 11]., assignor to Westinghouse Air Brake Company, Pittsburgh, Pa., a corporation of Pennsylvania Filed Oct. 18, 1965, Ser. No. 497,020 Claims. (Cl. 299-86} ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A cutter bit for a mining machine formed as a frustoconical head having a hard metal tip and a concentric reduced diameter shank mounted for free rotation in a cutter block socket. The conical head is provided with a plurality of spiral ribs to frictionally engage the material being mined to cause positive rotation of the cutter bit. The spiral ribs are uniform in cross-section throughout their length so that the furrows remaining between the ribs increase in width from the front to the rear of the bit.
This invention relates to improvements in cutter bits of the type used on mining machines for niming coal and the like, and more particularly relates to an improved form of tipped bit having a hardened cutting insert.
Cutter bits having hardened cutting tips or inserts have commonly been used in mines, on cutter chains and the rotary boring heads of continuous mining machines. These cutter bits are usually mounted so the tips cut with a scraping action. The cutting edges of the hardened tips, which are usually carbide tips, are extremely brittle, with the result that the tips frequently break off particularly when the cutter is reversed or when encountering hard inclusions in the seam.
A principal object of the present invention therefore, is to remedy the foregoing deficiencies in tipped cutter bits by providing an improved form of cutter bit in which the hardened tip is supported to cut with a wedging action.
A further object of the invention is to provide an improved form of cutter bit having a. hardened cutting tip, in which the bit is mounted in its support for free rotation, providing even wear and self-sharpening of the bit.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a new and improved form of cutter bit having a generally frusto-conical head with a hardened carbide insert in the small diameter portion of the head and having a generally conical tip, and supported in its support to cut with a wedging action, in which the head is so formed as to rotate the bit during cutting, to effect self-sharpening and uniform wear of the bit.
A still further object of the invention is to provide an improved form of carbide tipped cutter bit having a conical carbide tip supported on the small diameter end of a frusto-conical head, in which the head is mounted in its support for free rotation and is so formed as to be continually rotated by engagement of the head with the material being cut.
These and other objects of the invention will appear from time to time as the following specification proceeds and with reference to the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIGURE 1 is a generally perspective end view of a cutter bit constructed in accordance with the principles of the present invention, showing the bit mounted in a travelling bit holder;
FIGURE 2. is a front end view of the bit shown in FIGURE 1;
FIGURE 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of the bit; and
FIGURE 4 is a fragmentary view of the bit, illustrating the wedging of the body of the bit against the material "ice being cut, to effect rotation of the bit as advancing along a mine face.
Referring now to the details of the embodiment of the invention illustrated in the drawings, a cutter support or block 10 is shown in FIGURE 1 as supporting a cutter bit 11, and as advancing the cutter bit along the working face of a mine. The cutter block 10 may be the bit carrying block of a mining machine cutter chain or may be mounted on the cutter support of a rotary boring head or other mining device used in mining coal and the like, by movement of the block and bit along a mine face, as the machine advances into the face.
The bit 11 has a generally frusto-conical head 12 and has a coaxial reduced diameter generally cylindrical shank 13 extending from the large diameter end thereof. The shank 13 is shown in FIGURE 1 as being rotatably mounted in a socket 15 in the cutter block 10, extending at an angle to position a cutting tip 16 of the bit to mine with a wedging cutting action. The shank 13 has an outwardly opening recess 17 formed therein, intermediate its ends, and extending thereabout. A pin 19 extending transversely of the cutter block 10 and mounted therein slidably engages said recess to retain the bit to said block and accommodate ready rotation of the bit in said block during the operation of cutting.
The shank 13 terminates at its outer end into a shoulder 20 inclined outwardly and forwardly with respect to said shank to provide clearance between the head 12 and a face 21 of the cutter block 10 and enhance freedom of rotation of the cutter bit in said block. The shoulder 20 terminates into a generally cylindrical wall 22, which is relatively short compared with the length of the head, and defines the large diameter end of the frusto-conical face of the head 12.
The frusto-conical face of the head 12 is shown in FIGURE 3 as being slightly concave and as terminating at its outer end into a reduced diameter end portion 23 providing the stock to back and sup-port the tip 16'. The flattened end portion 23 is axially drilled from the outer end thereof to form a generally cylindrical socket 25 for the tip 16.
The tip 16 may be bonded to the socket 25 of the head 12 in a conventional manner and may be made from a hardened metal alloy substantially harder than the metal from which the head 12 is made, and preferably may be made from one of the well known carbides conventionally used to tip cutting tools, such as cutter bits and the like.
The tip 16 has a generally coniacl cutting point extending outwardly of a cylindrical body 26 of said tip, spaced inwardly along the end portion 23 of the head 12 a distance sufiicient to provide stock for a series of spiral convolutions or ribs 27. The spiral ribs 27 are shown as being generally Vehaped in cross-section and uniform throughout their length and diverging from each other as they extend along the head to the base thereof and leaving furrows 29 therebetween, shown as increasing in width from the face 23 to the wall portion 22 of the head 12.
As shown in FIGURE 4, the ribs 27 provide a serrated end portion of the head 12, which is wedged into the material being cut as the bit moves therealong. This wedging of the ribs 27 into or against the material being cut effects a positive rotation of the bits in the block 10, as said block advances along a mine face during the cutting operation, and provides a constantly changing cutting edge of the tip 16, providing even wear of the tip and self-sharpening thereof. This not only maintains the tip sharp but also obviates the forming of flat spots on the tip and head.
It may be seen from the foregoing that a novel and improved form of cutter bit has been provided utilizing a conical cutting tip or insert, which may be made from a hardened metal alloy, and supporting the insert to cut with a wedging action rather than the conventional scraping action, and so supporting the tip as to avoid the exposure of Weak edges which may break otf, and sufficiently supporting and protecting the tip to prevent breaking of the tip from the bit, should the cutter block be moving in a reverse direction.
It may further be seen that by the simple spiral convolutions extending along the frusto-conical face of the head of the bit, the bit is continually turned during operation to provide even wear on the tip and self-sharpening thereof.
While I have herein shown and described one form in which the invention may be embodied, it may readily be understood that various modifications and variations in the invention may be attained without departing from the spirit and scope of the novel concepts thereof.
I claim as my invention: 7
1. In a cutter bit for mining machines and the like and in combination with a mining machine cutter block movable along a mine face and forming a support for the bit,
a generally frusto-conical head having a reduced diameter leading end and a large diameter trailing end,
a concentric shank extending from the large diameter trailing end of said head for rotatable mounting in the mining machine cutter block,
a hardened cutting tip recessed in and bonded to the small diameter leading end of said head and extending axially therefrom and having a generally conical cutting tip penetrating the material being mined with a scraping action upon travel of the bit along a mine face,
and spiral ribs extending along said conical head from the leading to the trailing end thereof and providing the frictional contact with the material being mined to effect positive turning of the bit within the cutter block upon cutting movement of said cutting tip along a mine face.
2. A cutter bit in accordance with claim 1, wherein the shank has an outwardly opening recess extending thereabout wherein a pin mounted in the cutter block and extending chordally of the shank, extends along said recess to accommodate rotation of said bit within said cutter block and to retain said bit to said block, and wherein the spiral ribs are uniform in cross-section throughout their length, leaving furrows therebetween increasing in width from the leading to the trailing end of the bit.
3. In a cutter bit, 7
a cutter block therefor of a type moving along the mine face as it is advanced into the mine face,
a cylindrical shank rotatably mounted in'said cutter block and supporting the bit at a cutting angle wit respect to a mine face,
a generally frusto-conical head extending from said shank and tapering toward its outer end,
from, the frusto-conical face of said head having helical convolutions in the form of spiral ribs extending for'the length of said face to effect positive rotation of said bit by the wedging of said ribs intothe material being mined during the operation of advancing said tip into and along a mine face, to effect a mining operation. 4. A cutter bit in accordance with claim 3, V. wherein the ribs are of a generally V-shaped crosssection throughout their length and have furrows therebetween opening to the end of the head supporting the tip and increasing in Width from the leading to the trailing end thereofto provide a self-cleaning serrated end portion of said head wedging into and rotating said bit during the operation of advancing said tip into and along a mine face, to eifect a cutting operation. 5. The structure of claim 3,
wherein the shank has an outwardly opening annular recessed portion extending thereabout,
wherein a pin extending through said block is slidably engaged by said recessed portion to accommodate rotation of said bit in said block and to retain said bit thereto,
and wherein the ribs are V-shaped in cross-section and of uniform cross-section throughout their length and leave furrows therebetween increasing in width from the leading to the trailing end of said cutter bit.

Philippine c.bank sees room for 'measured' policy tweaks
MANILA, July 11
MANILA, July 11 (Reuters) - The Philippine central bank sees enough room to tweak monetary policy without hurting the country's economy, a deputy governor said on Friday.
"Domestic demand conditions are likely to remain broadly resilient, suggesting there is room for measured policy adjustment without duly dampening the country's growth momentum," Diwa Guinigundo told reporters at a briefing.
Guinigundo said domestic liquidity growth "remains strong and continues to pose a risk to inflation." The central bank has a 2014 inflation target of 3 to 5 percent.
The central bank has taken several modest steps to tighten liquidity and tamp price pressures so far this year, via adjustments on its short-term special deposit accounts facility and banks' required reserves.
But some economists believe its next step will be more forceful - a hike in its policy rate from the current record low of 3.5 percent - after inflation averaged 4.2 percent in the first half. (Reporting by Karen Lema; Writing by Siegfrid Alegado; Editing by Richard Borsuk)

Our source informs us that in the coming episodes, "Manav's grandfather will soon enter the family and he will make sure that Uma Ben (Supriya Pathak) accepts Chhanchhan as the daughter-in-law."
"Arvind Vaidya who was last seen in Saas Bina Sasural as a grandfather will once again play the role of a positive grandfather who will help bridge the gap between Umaben and Chhanchhan."
"However, there will be loads of twists and turns in the coming episodes."
When contacted Dheeraj Miglani he said, "Yes, we will have a grandfather coming in the show, and soon things will sort out eventually."

- Fun atmosphere!chasincarolineVIPDined on 11/8/2014Great restaurant with a vibrant atmosphere! The food is always good. I had the Spaghetti Siciliano this last time and fell in love. Delights the senses :) Love that the staff is so friendly and helpful. It made out special night even more remarkable by having the staff completely help my Fiance propose to me this past weekend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great TimethevidiotDined on 11/2/2014This was a Group on deal and it was my first visit to Micheli's in over a year. The singing was excellent as was the food and service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OKmacbonesDined on 11/1/2014The food was good (Chicken Parmesan better than the Lasagne). We could not have a conversation without having to yell over the live music playing though. I think the venue is too small for drums, etc. it was much louder than I remember from my first visit years ago. The decor is fun and festive though and the wait staff is very fast and friendly.I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 10/25/2014Noted for pizza but had dinner entrees which were good, but not memorable. Restaurant is large, festive, very loud with musicians and singers over amplified, and packed. People waiting for tables at 6 PM on a Saturday. Overall a fun place, but not for a quiet dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- fun and good fooddatenightDined on 10/18/2014Lots of fun - singing servers are really good. good for kids. ambiance is fun. food is pretty good. would definitely return.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/12/2014Service was excellent! Our server was lovely. Cheesy garlic bread was great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I love Miceli's Universal!VikingQueenDined on 10/11/2014Thank you for reserving our favorite booth as requested when I made the reservations and thank you for seating us right away. It's always a total joy to eat there, the happy atmosphere, the singing, the food, just everything makes it so much fun! You are my all time favorite restaurant! Love you guys!Special Features:
- PattydloveDined on 10/11/2014We have been visiting this restaurant for 25 years for special occasions. We love the food, excellent service, the music and atmosphere! Highly recommend this to all our family and friends!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- An experience you won't forgetcpugdanceDined on 9/27/2014Great entertainment. Waitress Jennifer was excellent, friendly, accommodating for my late arrivals, and sang "Let it go" beautifully. Food was delicious, and I would highly recommend going. Also note complimentary valet parking next door.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Singing and great foodOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/26/2014Great service and quintessential Italian food. A classic findSpecial Features:
- Great 1st Date Spot!luv2goout7Dined on 9/26/2014The spotty entertainment makes this a great first date spot. You have time to think about what to say next because every 10 minutes the staff will get up and sing and entertain. This is perfect if you are suddenly at a loss for words! The staff also figures out who is on a first date and they are extra nice to new couples! We had fun!Special Features:
- Good as alwaysOpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 9/21/2014Hadn't been there for a while. It never changes, you cant go wrong w/ this place.Special Features:
- Touristy but fun (and good food)MakeitcountDined on 9/20/2014All servers take a turn at the mike, belting out standards like 'New York, New York'. The singing is wonderful but face it, you don't expect much from a restaurant-with-a-gimmick food-wise so we were pleasantly surprised at how good our meals were: Shrimp and Scallop Cacciatore (husband said 'very good'), Chicken Parmesan (daughter: 'great') and Linguini with Garlic and Olive Oil and Spinach (mine, and it was excellent). While the wait staff may aspire to be professional singers (and they so good, that is a real possibility), they were nevertheless top-notch servers: friendly, quick and helpful. Go celebrate a birthday at Miceli's and you'll hear a rendition of 'Happy Birthday' like no other. Kind of loud, kind of chaotic but we liked it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- InterestingRichardDined on 9/20/2014The singing waiters is lots of fun. It is always a very entertaining evening when we go. The food is old fashion Italian. It is good.Special Features:
- Wasn't bad... Wasn't goodChrisSt88Dined on 9/16/2014It was late and was not familiar with the area. Didn't want to go to universal so figured we would try this place. Food was good but not the best Italian I've ever had. If you don't want to go to the universal walk chain restaurants/ travel far from the hotels it's a good choice. But I feel like if I ventured a little further I would have found something better.
- Good food great entertainmentLuv2eatoutDined on 9/12/2014Good food great entertainment. However, Sitting by the piano is not a good idea if you wish to talk with your guests. That seems kind of obvious, but when first seated it looks like a lovely spot. It's only when the entertainment starts and you've already ordered and finding a new table is a pain that you realize this.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- JenksDined on 9/9/2014The food was amazing and the service was equal! The unique style of serving/singing was a stark contrast to the normal dining experience. The good quality was to match! Overall it was fantastic and we are already looking at coming back!!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fun placeOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/30/2014Took my dad there for his 70th birthday with a few family members before heading to the Hollywood Bowl for a concert. We all loved the food and the service and especially the singing staff! Great for a special occasion and for out of towners!Special Features:
- #1 LA dining experience every time!Luv2travelDined on 8/16/2014Always a fantastic food experience. The servers sing to you and the other guests. If you can, get a table near the piano, first rate experience there. We will dine the next time we are in town again. Thank you!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Our GO TOJestbareitDined on 8/15/2014We've had celebrations here as well as enjoyed bringing out-of-town guests to this unique & entertaining atmosphere. The food is always great and the menu generous. It's a must!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- It was a great dining experience.MichaelDined on 8/15/2014It was the first time for my family. We met another family there that had been there before. We absolutely enjoyed the food and the ambiance. I think we are going again next week.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good to visit againteachermom1954VIPDined on 8/9/2014It had been a REALLY LONG TIME since I had been here. Wanted some good Italian food after a long day at work. Music is always good but there were times it was WAY TOO LOUD. I had trouble hearing myself think. Food was good though. My daughter took the advice of the server and she was not disappointed at all. Will come back again for great food!!Special Features:
- The following 118 reviews are from the Miceli's - Universal reviews archive.
- beauzestDined on 7/28/2014This was a wonderful experience. We had children with special needs and the restaurant went out of their way to accommodate us. Fantastic food and wonderful service!Special Features:
- DisappointingAndrewDined on 7/21/2014Sorry to say but this was the worst Italian restaurant I've ever been to. Something is so steeped in tradition served soggy frozen calamari? I literally threw up when I got home.
- GOOD TIMESDartboyDined on 7/19/2014If you want to have a fun time dining out, then go to Miceli's!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great Place to Eat, relax, & enjoyOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/27/2014Everyone I met and spoke to on the staff was very friendly. The food was delicious, timing was great, ambiance was fantastic. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone in the future!Special Features:
- Perfect for Special OccasionsphgjennDined on 6/15/2014I had only been here once before years ago, but it left a lasting impression on me. I LOVED that the waiters and waitresses all have beautiful voices and sing throughout the night near the piano. The piano player was amazing, played as if it were effortless. I took my dad here for Father's Day and celebrated my birthday here this last Sunday. Note: apparently the singing mainly takes place during dinner shift, but we were lucky enough to have one of the dinner servers working the lunch shift! There are not very many restaurants that I would consider "fun," but this one knocks it out of the park. Love that it's family owned and run as well! Fun fun fun. Everyone enjoyed themselves!Special Features:
- Parking ChallengeJonesDAVIPDined on 6/6/2014We enjoyed the dining experience again. The food remains the best, the service and our waiter was on point. The entertainment makes the restaurant experience that much more enjoyable.Special Features:
- Very Good FoodLuv2DineDined on 6/2/2014I went there for dinner. Service was very good. They checked back with me often to see if there was anything I wanted or needed. The food was good and a decent size portions. I could not eat all my dinner. Took leftovers home. Waitresses and waiters sing songs during the evening as someone plays the piano. Was very surprised with the VERY GOOD and FREE entertainment while eating dinner. Will definitely return to this restaurant again to eat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Family-Favorite-Karaoke-StyleFoodnWineMeDined on 6/1/2014My boyfriend & I had driven passed Miceli's when we lived in Studio City but never made it in so when we saw an Amazon Local Deal for Miceli's we decided to finally try it. Our reservation was on a Sunday night & upon entering we were greeted by the roar of people talking loudly over a live piano & singing. The servers took turns singing & although they all had great voices, the volume could have been turned down a bit to allow for dinner conversation. There were so many families w/kids; it felt like we were at a Chuck E. Cheese. We had the chicken lasagna, meatballs in red sauce, minestrone soup & bottle of Miceli's private label chianti. The food & wine were OK but nothing stood out. Well, at least we know now & can stop wondering.Special Features:
- Fun place to eatFoodiecriticDined on 6/1/2014If you love show tunes and good Italian food, this is the place to go. The waiters sing and service your food. It is lots of fun and entertaining.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Entertaining Dining at Miceli'sPetuniaDined on 6/1/2014We had a wonderful dinner at Miceli's as the waiter was very accommodating and provided good service, he was also very talented as all the entertainers were. The Pizza and salad were delicious but the Pasta was OK. The ambiance was very reminiscent of an Italian restaurant in the theater district in New York. The piano player was also great. The bus boy was a bit cranky. It is kid friendly providing children the opportunity to hear Opera in the most wonderful way of introducing them to good music. We had the most delightful evening and look forward to returning soon.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Would not say they are kid friendlyOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 5/31/2014Listed as kid friendly, but really a bit too loud for kids, no kids menu and no paper, crayons or coloring page. This would be a great addition if they want to be considered kid friendly.Special Features:
- It looks nice!ImnotpickyDined on 5/31/2014Ambiance is great, its trendy place to eat. Parking is terrible, but the place is easy to find. Prices were okay, although food was salty, so I was a little disappointed.

Gratuity for food and service was not worth it. 10% kind of place.Special Features:
- Little DisappointedSkipDined on 5/17/2014Checked in a little before 8 pm reservation. Was told it would be a few minutes and went to bar. Sat for 1/2 hour was not called. Noticed that people that cam in after us were being seated. Checked with attendant found out they forgot about us as they asked if I had a reservation again. Waited another 15 minutes before being seated.Special Features:
- Train your waitressDisappointed1Dined on 5/17/2014We were very disappointed with our waitress. Although she sang beautifully , it appeared she was just going through the motions as a server. It was our first time at Micelli's and she did not explain if food came with soup or salad etc... She did not ask us if we wanted more drinks bread etc... We literally had to grab her in order to get service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Hoped for better.DJ2432Dined on 5/17/2014For so many years, I had heard how great this restaurant was and I finally decided to try it but I was overall disappointed. Our waiter was nice but we hardly saw him and when we did, we had to call him over to our table for service which does not make for a good experience. Caesar salad he recommended was really good, but way too much dressing in it. We opted for the Miceli's specialty pizza with thin crust and the pizza dough seemed like cardboard. I couldn't believe it given this place is so reputable and has been there for years. I'm not sure I'd go back given this experience but if I did, I'd definitely order the Caesar salad with dressing on the side.Special Features:

I'd like to ask how are the problems for the tactics trainer selected by the computer? Do they become more difficult as your rating gets higer? A staff member would be welcomed to answer :)
Might I write my opinion ?
The problems on tactics trainer become more difficult when your tactic's trainer rating becomes higher. When you solve a problem, you can see somwhere your new rating and a + or - and a number, and the problem's rating and a - or +. So these ratings have not a really big difference. Eg, your rating is 1800 and you solve a problem with rating 1775, you are going to gain some points, and the problem is going to lose those points.
Hope I answered your question !

Concord police stun, arrest gun rights protester after officer touched on shoulder
Tony Mayfield of Hillsborough, foreground, protests the reading of names of those killed by gunfire during a demonstration by the Mayors Against Illegal Guns movement in Concord on Tuesday. (TIM BUCKLAND/UNION LEADER)
In the video above, an angry crowd hectors Concord police, some shouting obscenities, as Daniel Musso is stunned and handcuffed.
WMUR captured the moment Daniel Musso, 52, of Brentwood, touched a Concord officer on the shoulder in this YouTube video.
- In the 1970's there were a couple hundred SWAT raids annually in the U.S., that number now tops 50,000. To what do you attribute the spike?
- More violent crime
- 22%
- Erosion of civil liberties
- 12%
- Militarization
- 31%
- Overtime pay
- 6%
- Police safety
- 7%
- War on Drugs
- 19%
- Other
- 4%
- Total Votes: 181
The event had people supporting the Mayors Against Illegal Guns movement, founded by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, reading the names of those "killed with guns" since the Dec. 14 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary outside their "No More Names" bus.
Witnesses said Daniel Musso, 52, of Brentwood was asked by police to move. He placed his hand on an officer, was tasered and arrested.
Cantin shrugged off the altercation.
"They just weakened their cause and strengthened ours," he said.
"Senator Ayotte voted for an amendment that would not increase gun safety," he said.
"New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's special interest group has spent millions on false attacks against Senator Ayotte," he said. "Senator Ayotte has voted for legislation that had bipartisan support to fix the current broken background check system, increase the prosecution of those who illegally seek to obtain firearms, and provide additional resources for school safety, while protecting the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens."
Some of the loudest shouts came when a reader spoke the name of Tamerlan Tsarnaev, one of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects who was killed by police during a gunfight.
Eileen Ehlers of Hooksett said she turned toward a man earlier in the evening who "was being loud and obnoxious" and showed him her "No More Names" sign. She said he grabbed the sign and threw it to the ground. When he did, she said, she pulled out a camera to take his photo.
Mayfield said he was disappointed that any altercations happened.
Not all the discourse involved shouting. For several minutes, Mitch Kopacz, president of the Gun Owners of New Hampshire group, debated gun control with state Rep. Sylvia Gale, D-N.H. Neither raised their voice and they shook hands after talking, with Gale calling Kopacz "respectful."

ZZZ/Ma BY I w g mi V A V N \\IIIIIIIIIIIII- G. C. FRANTZ ADJUSTABLE GRADING ATTACHMENT Filed Dec. 24, 1926 I l W s F F GEE Mm w 0 m 6 v1 w Feb. 5, 1929.
Patented Feb. 51, 1929.
' llhllTED' STATES FATENTOFHCE) (El-ROVER C. FRANTZ, OF HARRISBURG, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIGNORTO MODERN UTILITIES COMPANY, OF HARRISBURG, PENNSYLVANIA.
My invention relates to grade indicating devices and more particularly to an attachment adapted to be secured to the end of: an ordinary mechanics level whereby it adapts the level to be used as a grade indicator.
ll am, aware that a number of grade indicat ing devices and. attachments have been produced but the devices are usually cumbersome or expensive and the attachments so is r produced are lacking in strength and in eliiciency.
The principal object ofiny invention is to provide an attachment which may be secured to the end of an ordinary mechanic s level so that it will not detract from its ability to function in its ordinary capacity and. which may be extended to measure the grade oi any sloping surface.
A further object of my invention is to pro-' vide a device of this character which may be quickly and easily set in selected positions and which will be rigid and serviceable under all conditions.
A still further object of my invention is to provide a device of this character which may be cheaply manufactured and which may be readily attached by any workman.
These objects, and other advantageous ends which will be described hereinafter, I attain in the following manner, reference being had to the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure l is an elevation of a preferredembodiment of my invention, showing the device in closed position,
Figure 2 a view similar to Figure l but showing the device in extended position Figure 3 a view of the base plate forrnii'ig a part of the device shown in, ll igurefl,
Figure 4 a cross sectional view taken on line 4 4: on Figure 1, drawn to an enlarged scale, and
Figure 5 a. view showing the device at tached to an ordinary mechanics level and illustrating how the device may be used.
Referring now more in detail to the drawing, the device consists primarily in base plate 6, a slide 7, a stud 8, and thumb nut 9. The base plate is provided each corner with, a countersunk hole 10, through which screws may be inserted for securing the device to the. end of a level 11, as shown in Figure Near the lower end of base plate i. a re duced part 12 on stud 8 is inserted through a suitable countersunk hole and riveted flush with the-rear side of base plate 6, as plainly shown in Figure 4. The outer end of stud 8 thumb nut-being counterbored to clear is threaded leaving a short plain portion 18, the shoulders of which abut the lace of: the base plate 6 and hold the stud firmly in an upposil'ion and. the ides of plain poii n in are aoaj ii eu to or igc the edgesof a slot ,ifornied vertically in slide? lfhunib nut 5) is i] v dll and aihuitcd li-obear against thevouter ilfacefo'l slide 7 and hold same firmly in any desired position; the the plain portion 13 olthe stud.
The sides o1 base plate 6 are straight and parallel and are verla i ped by a pair o'l flanges 15 formed on either sideoi slide 7. it is evident that stud 8 and thumb nut S) will hold slide 7 against vertical movement and that flanges 15. by engaging the cd oi base plate 6. will hold the slide againsd; any lateral n'ioven'ient. 1 A scale 16 is provided along one edge base plate 6 and a second scale 1? along its other edge; both scales being placed at abredetermined distance from the bottom of the base plate.
lVhile any system of measurement mav be used I prefer to provide scales which 'ihdicate the fall in inches per one foot run and the fall 1n inches per 10 icet run as these are the dimensions to which mechanics are usually required to work.
in applying the device, the worlnnan l'llOlQlyPlZLCQS the bottom of base plate 6 flush with the bottom oi? his level and drills. holes therein to coincide with holes 10. l le then i ar-zloi'is the base plate to the end oi the level by means of lllHGliIlllfI coui'ii'crsunk head screws lhrough holes ll) and into the holes drilled in the end otlhc level, "ill-en places slide '4" in position and screws thumb nut 9 to its seat.
Assuming that he wished to install a run of pipe. such as illustrated by the numeral 18 in Figure- 5, to a tall oljone inchper loot he would loosen. not 9, move slide i dmvnwardly until the top of the slide come in alignment with the proper graduation on scale 16 and tigl'iten the thumb out. He would then raise or lower one end of pipe 18 until the spirit level 19 indicated that the top of the level was in a horizontal plane. H the slope given the mechanic was in inches per 10 f .et; he would merely use scale 1'2.
It understood that attachments having differently graduated. scales are. required for levels 01 dilierent lengths. Slide Tneed not necessarily be attached to a level whose thickness is equal to the width of the slide or whose height is equal to the length of the base plate. It may be attached to a level of any thickness or height; so long as the bottom of slide 7, in normal position, is flush with the underside of the level, as in Figure 1, when the attachment is not in use, to enable the level to be used in its ordinary manner.
lVhile I have illustrated and described a preferred embodiment of my invention, it will be readily understood that various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit thereof, and hence I do not wish to limit myself to the precise construction set forth but consider that I am atliberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly come within the scope oi: the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is A grading attachment for amechanics level comprising a flat rectangular base plate adapted to be secured to the end of the level with its bottom edge flush with the bottom of the level, a slide abutting the base plate and having an elongated slot, a stud having a reduced part extending through the base plate and secured therein by having its end riveted over flush with the rear face of the base plate, a plain part on the stud slidably engaging the sides of the slot, a counterbored thumb nut threaded upon the stud and abutting the slide for holding same in selected positions, flanges formed on the side edges of the slide parallel to and slidably engaging the sides of the base plate but not extending beyond its rear face, and a plurality of scales formed on the front face of the base plate and adapted to coact with the top edge of the slide for indicating various grades.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
