ABC's 'General Hospital' Leads Daytime Pack in Key Demo
"General Hospital" may be daytime's longest-running drama, but it's showing no signs of slowing down.
For the week of Dec. 9-13, the ABC sudser ranked as the No. 1 program in daytime among women 18-49 -- topping usual leader "The Young and the Restless" on CBS for a second straight week.
According to Nielsen estimates, "General Hospital" averaged 779,200 women 18-49, while "Young and the Restless" averaged 761,400. "Y&R," which remains the most popular daytime drama overall, had won 349 of the previous 351 weeks in the demo heading into December, but has now dropped the month's first two frames.
The back-to-back victories for "General Hospital" mark a first for the show since May 2007.
Powered by storylines including Robin's return from the dead and the looming verdict for AJ's murder trial, "GH" is also the daytime drama showing the most year-over-year growth. During the week of Dec. 9-13, it was up vs. the comparable frame a year ago by 28% in women 18-49 (779,200 vs. 610,000) and by 37% in women 25-54 (1.06 million vs. 774,000).
In total viewers, its three most recent weeks have been "General Hospital's" most-watched weeks since late 2010. The show is on pace for its best season in seven years.
"GH," the only remaining ABC daytime soap following the cancellations of "All My Children" and "One Live to Live," celebrated its 50th anniversary earlier this year. It became the longest-running daytime soap a few years ago when CBS canceled "As the World Turns."
ABC Daytime has also seen strong numbers of late for its cooking talk show "The Chew." From Dec. 9-13, it established a series high in women 25-54 (774,000) for a second straight week, according to Nielsen.
And in total viewers, "The Chew" drew 2.94 million, meaning that its three most recent weeks have been its three most-watched since the show launched in September 2011.

Barbara Walters to Retire in 2012?by Free Britney at . Comments
Barbara Walters told President Barack Obama she's retiring next year, according to TMZ, which cites sources who heard Barbara say it to him personally.
The legendary TV figure (we can't say "journalist" after the Kim Kardashian sex tape footage she aired the other night) interviewed Obama on Thursday.
According to the source, during a break, Barbara leaned over to Obama and said, "I need one more interview with you because I'm retiring next year."
Walters' mic was on when she said it, and lots of people were listening ... but here's the thing. She's joked about retirement for years and years now.
Barbara still does specials for the network, in addition to The View. Her Most Fascinating People special generated enormous buzz as it always does.
Obama was not on the list, natch, while Steve Jobs (above) was #1.
Jeff Schneider, Sr. VP of ABC News, said "Barbara has joked that she is retiring every year" and "anyone who just did a day trip to Syria, 90-minute prime time special and an interview with the President and First Lady hardly sounds like someone retiring."
So, there you go. Walters, 82, is probably staying put.
It's all a Lie! Niggers can't be Racist- Not even White Niggers! It is time for her to go! If a Kardashian is on her " Top 10" then it's unanimous- She is Completly "Fu*ked up!
Barbara racists? I don`t think so. She has hired and slept with niggers forever. Remember her biracial love scandal? Wasn`t he still married. Give me a break. She is good at what she does. I have little use for her lifestyle,or the way she steps on toe to achieve what she wants, but she gets down to the facts. Fact is she is not racist.
It is about time that you retire, you old white hack.my God, can you get any older? Withered, wrinkled, racist, witch...go away. Leave our great president out of it.

The Karnes City Family Detention Center came under intense scrutiny earlier this month when the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund (MALDEF) and lawyers from the University of Texas School of Law submitted a complaint that guards have been committing "substantial, ongoing sexual abuse" against the mothers being detained.
When the facility—run by the GEO Group—began receiving mothers and their children at the beginning of August, advocates remembered the conditions and trauma that the families detained at the T. Don Hutto facility had to endure from 2006 to 2009. On an ICE directed visit to the Karnes facility last month, mothers complained about the severe cold, poor food quality, and the lack of freedom that they and their children experience on a daily basis, a nearly identical description of initial conditions in the Hutto facility.
Private prison corporations like the GEO Group deal primarily in adult criminal detention, and are not equipped to deal compassionately with vulnerable populations such as recently arrived immigrant families who are seeking asylum. "The recent allegations of sexual abuse don't surprise me at all," Grassroots Leadership's Immigration Projects Director Cristina Parker commented, "I'm sickened, but not surprised." A report jointly released by Grassroots Leadership and Justice Strategies documents the lousy track record of the GEO Group when it comes to human rights abuses.
In April, Juan Aguilar, a former GEO employee was charged with sexual abuse of a detainee. The victim of the abuse was being detained at Pearsall during his deportation proceedings. The two men were working in the kitchen when Aguilar pulled down the detainee's pants off and performed fellatio on him in the freezer.
On Wednesday, a jury took just over an hour to find Aguilar guilty, and he is nowawaiting his sentence. Aguilar's lawyer reportedly argued that he had no authority over the inmate and that the act was "wrong but not a crime," and likened it to someone having an extra-marital affair — morally wrong but not illegal. However, the law in Texas is clear that sex between inmates and employees is absolutely illegal.
This is not the first time that the GEO Group, and specifically the detention center in Pearsall, has been involved in a sexual abuse scandal.
San Antonio Express News reports that a lawsuit is being filed against Corrections Corporation of America for permitting a hazing tradition at Bartlett State Jail that ultimately led to the sexual assault of an inmate.
Bartlett State Jail is a prison facility for low-level inmates serving short-term sentences. The tradition of hazing inmates who are near to their release date involves forcibly removing their pants, turning them upside down and slamming them against the glass of the guard station. It is impossible for guards to ignore the behavior, as they are literally faced with the exposed backside of the inmate who is being hazed. Bartlett's Warden Eduardo Carmona and other CCA executives were previously aware of the tradition and yet had never attempted to prevent it from happening.
According to the court documents, the hazing incident that resulted in the sexual assault was a three hour ordeal in which every single inmate in a 55-person block was subjected to the hazing practice while the single officer on duty — who was not only in charge of the victim's block but three other 55-person blocks — did nothing to intervene.
Typically, in correctional facilities that follow best practices, there should be two officers on duty at all times so that one can intervene while the other calls for backup. Understaffing as a cost-cutting measure is routine at CCA run facilities and, clearly, it results in inmate-on-inmate violence with no intervention by staff.
As we say goodbye to 2013, Texas Prison Bid'ness is highlighting the top private prison stories of the year, based on stories covered by our blog. Our number one story of the year is the state's closure of two notorious Corrections Corporation of America prisons - the Dawson State Jail and the Mineral Wells Pre-Parole Transfer Facility.
The story mirrors our biggest story of 2012, the growing momentum to close the Dawson State Jail. State lawmakers had pushed for the closure of Dawson and the Mineral Wells Pre-Parole Transfer Facility, another CCA-contract prison, arguing that the state had extra bed capacity thanks to a declining prison population.
In August, advocacy organizations celebrated the closure of these two privately operated prisons. Over the preceding year, a broad coalition of faith, criminal justice reform, prisoner families, correctional officers, and civil rights groups had call for the closure of Dawson. Dallas CBS 11 reporter Ginger Allen ran a series of damning reports interviewing former Dawson prisoners and former guards at the facility.
Dawson's history was fraught with human rights violations. As Piper Madison reported in May of this year, The Texas Civil Rights Project and and Prison Legal News filed a lawsuit against the Corrections Corporation of America (CCA) for witholding information regarding the deaths of several women in the facility and a premature infant whose mother's cries for help were ignored by facility staff. TCRP filed requests for information under the Freedom of Information Act to compel CCA to disclose information regarding the deaths.
Autumn Miller, whose baby girl died four days after her birth at Dawson, filed a lawsuit against the facility "alleging cruel and unusual punishment." Miller spoke with Ginger Allen of CBS 11 in Dallas and NPR of North Texas, saying that her requests for help were ignored througout her pregnancy and, ultimately, while she was giving birth. Her daughter was born on a toilet in a holding cell.
Ulitmately, Texas legislators reduced TDCJ's budget by the exact operating amount of Dawson and Mineral Wells, and TDCJ then closed the facilities in August. Dallas Morning News reporter Scott Goldstein toured the facility after it closed and found some haunting messages left on the walls:
"Surrender to death or to life."
"Don't be afraid. Soon you will pass out of darkness."

Delicious Asian restaurants in Raleigh
I love good, inexpensive Asian food, everything from Turkey and the Middle East to Korea, Japan, to Vietnam, India and all the food in between. My spouse and I have never been to Raleigh and are planning a few sight-seeing trips there--any good lunch recommendations in the affordable Asian food category? Here in Durham we tend to go to International Delights, Kebab and Curry, and Twisted Noodle, if that's any help.
If you are in downtown Raleigh at lunchtime (or until 7PM), you simply must check out Spize Cafe.
re: cackalackie
In Cary-haven't been for a while:
I love the Asian Grill on Falls of Neuse: http://www.asiangrillnc.com/default.html
Was there today and ordered off the lunch bento specials (usually have them fix something "they would eat". Excellent value. If you order off the "real" menu and not the stuff youve heard of before, you will get as close as you can get to Shanghai between DC and Atlanta.
re: BDM1
Second Asian Grill. I've also enjoyed Fortune Palace just off of Capital. Their menu has a wide mix of things from the usual Anglo-Chinese suspects to more authentic dishes. Avoid the lunch buffet - you can order off the menu for lunch.
Although, as a Raleigh-ite, I usually go to SuperWork or Taipei 101 in Cary for my Chinese fix.
re: dinersaurus
re: Tom from Raleigh
I ate at Super Wok tonight. We loved it. They serve family style so your bowl of meat comes in a bowl and each person has a plate and serving of rice.
Corner of Maynard and Chatham in Cary. Chatham Shopping center facing Maynard road.
re: sisterbeer
How are their banh mi sandwiches, particularly any of their vegetarian banh mis. Thanks.
re: kirol7777
They used to have a separate sandwich shop next door to the restaurant only for bahn mi sandwiches. I think you can get them in the restaurant now. It's been a while since I had them but I remember they were good I prefer the Bahn Mi (they call them baguettes) at Spize on Fayetteville St though.
re: TerryG
I loved the sandwich shop when it was open and miss it greatly. The Bahn Mi at the Restaurant were never as good as when they had the shop.
re: kirol7777
The grilled tofu banh mi is really good. I'm no expert on authentic banh mi, though.
re: pungentodor
One place that I've been meaning to try is LAZIZ BIRYANI CORNER on Avent Ferry Rd in Raleigh. It's a Pakistani place that I've heard good things about.
re: Tom from Raleigh
You have heard good things about it because it is good, nothing fancy but very good food. Had lunch there a few times and I have always been happy with what I got, and have even enjoyed the food off the buffet.
Saffron in Morrisville. great Indian food. Better dinners than buffet, but even the buffet is fine.
Try Able Bar & Grill in Cary, at the corner of Cary Parkway & Tryon Rd. I'm currently obsessed with their tofu dumplings. And the boiled peanuts (yes, really--& I don't like southern boiled peanuts At. All.)
We like Shish Kabob off Leesville Rd in N Raleigh. Cheap, super fresh. Of course there is also a new Neomonde which has opened in N Raleigh off Strickland and Lead Mine. Bigger but similar to the Morrisville location.
I enjoy Neo Asia off Glenwood in N Raleigh for great Chinese and sushi. I haven't tried the Thai.
David's Dumpling and Noodle Bar off HIllsborough is really yummy and affordable.
What's your favorite Vietnamese? I work in Durham and have been to pho 9n9 and Saigon Grille and enjoy both.
Please, go to C&T Wok in Morrisville and order off the authentic menu. Everything on it is very good. Filllet fish in szechuan spicy oil for example. Most authentic chinese I've ever had, much better than Asian Grill or even Red Palace when they were in business. Other than that, Safron in the same shopping center, Seoul Garden in North Raleigh, Sawasdee on Capital, Pho Far East on capital for Banh Mi.

Best thing I've had on my phone in ages. It's a slightly twitchy game about guiding Willow the Whale through the clouds on a rainbow. It's one-button, all the time, and yet there's loads in it. There are 64 missions, with the last ones only unlocked through better (sometimes perfect) scores on the easier ones, which creates a nice learning curve. The Endless mode looks like the easy one, and is also fun, but check out the achievements on it. They are hard. It controls great and it's fun, you should buy it.
Also it's soundtracked by a Super Furry Animal.

This sounds horrible, but it also sounds like the coins in 1000 Heroz, which aren't really a distraction at all. Seems like they'll be putting in some custom whales to make money, I doubt they'd actually break the challenge levels. They're really well-designed.
The new version of the game is, indeed, functionally different. As you collect bubbles and travel, you'll collect an in-game currency called Krill. With Krill, you can buy new powers, "useable treats," costumes for Willow and its five new playable friends. If you want this stuff without the grind, you can buy Krill straight-up.
Mills worries about how the current install base is going to react to this massive change, since the regular version will essentially die after this update.

Erie, Colorado, ...
I really like the black and white contrast look combined with a cute peter pan collar. I added banding of black around the sleeves and hem to give the edges a finish. The skirt section is in a slight tulip shape with pleats at the waistline. I used princess seams in the bodice so I could get a tight fit without using darts. The material is a double knit jersey.

What a great ide to use black for contrast. Most pople would do other way around. Lovely little dress! And love the mountains on the background :)

Thanks! My wardrobe is full of black dresses, so white makes a nice change! Thats the Colorado rockies!
Nov 29, 2011, 10.06 PMby peaches2218
Great shape! I would never have guessed this was jersey, I guess because of the structure of the double knit.
Nov 30, 2011, 04.56 PMby sarahmckee85
I really like that about double knit, its much stiffer so you can make pleats that will actually hold and give the fabric some shape. Double knits are my new favourite material!

Amazon deforestation in Brazil drops 18% in 2013/2014
(11/26/2014) Figures published Wednesday by Brazil's National Space Research Institute (INPE) show that 4,848 square kilometers (1,871 square miles) of forest — an area about the size of the state of Rhode Island or the country of Brunei — were cleared between August 2013 and July 2014.
What we can learn from uncontacted rainforest tribes
(11/26/2014) If you have ever wondered about the connection between hallucinogenic frogs, uncontacted peoples, conservation, and climate change — and who hasn't? — check out this TED talk from ethnobotanist Mark Plotkin. An ethnobotanist by training, Plotkin serves as President of the Amazon Conservation Team. Plotkin took a few minutes from his busy schedule to answer a few questions from Mongabay.
Meet the world's most wanted environmental criminals
(11/26/2014) In keeping with recent efforts to ramp up action against environmental crime, INTERPOL has highlighted nine fugitives for breaking laws related to illegal logging, poaching and the wildlife trade, illegal fishing, and waste dumping, among other crimes.
Chinese logging company takes over Guyana's forests
(11/26/2014) Foreign companies investing in Guyana's substantial forests are supposed to adhere to national laws and international agreements. But civil society leaders and activists inside and outside the South American country are crying foul, saying foreign corporations and government officials are paying lip service to the accords while quietly building a timber-harvesting empire in the country with few benefits for the average Guyanese.
New calendar celebrates primates and raises money for their survival
(11/26/2014) Humans, or Homo sapiens sapiens, are really just upright apes with big brains. We may have traded actual jungles for gleaming concrete and steel ones, but we are still primates, merely one member of an order consisting of sixteen families. We may have removed ourselves from our wilder beginnings, but our extant relatives—the world's wonderful primates—serve as a gentle living reminder of those days.
APP boosting timber productivity to support zero deforestation policy
(11/26/2014) Asia Pulp & Paper (APP) appears to have enough plantation fiber to operate existing mills as well as supply a new mill under construction in South Sumatra without having to pulp natural forests, argues a new report that also finds the forestry giant is successfully improving yields to support its zero deforestation commitment.
Earthworm farming in the West Bank (commentary)
(11/25/2014) From what I'm told, there can't be too many worm farms in the West Bank. Local agricultural experts say they've never heard of the practice. That doesn't mean that someone, somewhere isn't happily vermicomposting -- the technical name for worm farming -- but it's clearly not happening at any scale. After today though, there are at least two worm farms up and running here.
Progress being made in curbing illegal timber imports
(11/25/2014) Five major timber importers are making progress in cutting contraband wood from their markets, argues a series of reports published by Chatham House.
Meet the world's rarest chameleon: Chapman's pygmy
(11/25/2014) In just two forest patches may dwell a tiny, little-known chameleon that researchers have dubbed the world's most endangered. Chapman's pygmy chameleon from Malawi hasn't been seen in 16 years. In that time, its habitat has been whittled down to an area about the size of just 100 American football fields.
Amazon deforestation moratorium extended 18 months
(11/25/2014) The Brazilian soy industry has extended its deforestation moratorium for another 18 months. The moratorium, which was established in 2006 after a high-profile Greenpeace campaign, bars conversion of forests in Brazilian Amazon for soy production. Independent analysis has shown it to be highly effective — just prior to the moratorium, soy accounted for roughly a fifth of recent deforestation, while today its share is less than one percent.
Reeling in religious messages: how faith impacts fisheries in Fiji
(11/25/2014) Marrying religion and conservation could be key to making Fiji's fisheries sustainable. Fijians have strong religious beliefs, which were primarily introduced by Christian missionaries in the 1835, and today profoundly guide their daily lives. Fijians primarily depend on fisheries close to shore for their survival, which is the case for most small Pacific island countries.
Saving Myanmar's red pandas by protecting land, educating people
(11/25/2014) Red pandas, bear-like arboreal mammals with red, furry tails, are poached mainly for their fur. Found primarily at higher elevation forests of the eastern Himalayas, these pandas spend most of their time in trees, and feed mainly on bamboo. But much of their forest habitat has been destroyed due to illegal logging.

NEW YORK (AP) - Wells Fargo reported gains in its mortgage business for the fourth quarter on Tuesday.
WASHINGTON (AP) - The average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage fell again this week to a record low. The eighth record low in a year is attracting few takers because most who can afford to buy or refinance have already done so.
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. homebuilders are growing a little less pessimistic about the depressed housing market after seeing more people say they might be open to buying a home this year.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Builders ended 2011 with a third straight year of dismal home construction and the worst on record for single-family home building. But improvement at the end of the year lifted hopes for an eventual recovery.
DEAR BENNY: I have read your articles regarding time shares but I still feel at a loss as to how unload it. It is completely paid, with the maintenance fees paid every other year.

When spring arrives with its bright sunshine, fresh air, vibrant colors and light, do you find yourself regretting the decorating decisions you made last fall or winter? It's natural to incorporate the season into your home decor, and the best way to do that is with design touches that can change as easily - and quickly - as the seasons themselves.
Is the South County housing undervalued when it comes to fair market price?

As the chill of winter sets in, your home interior may be lacking the warmth and comfort you'd prefer. Fortunately, creating an inviting atmosphere does not require huge amounts of time or money.

To bring your decor into the season and give your home noticeable appeal, follow a few easy tips.
When it comes to home decorating, texturing can do for your walls what a good coat of wax can do for your car's finish - hide a host of flaws. Poorly patched holes, uneven sheetrock, ugly wallpaper and even multiple layers of peeling paint can all be hidden beneath a beautiful layer of texture.
Whether you've been taking steps toward green living or you're a newbie and want to jump start your efforts and reduce your carbon footprint on earth, one area of opportunity is your toddler's room.
Front-porch entertaining is making a comeback in America's neighborhoods, thanks to homeowners' renewed interest in beautifying the front entries of their homes. The days of uninspired concrete front stoops have passed, giving way to elegant combinations of freestanding walls, columns and matching pavers to create welcoming entrances that also serve as gathering places.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Construction spending jumped in November as builders spent more on single-family homes, apartments and remodeling projects.
NEW YORK (AP) - About 1.9 million homes entered the foreclosure process in 2011, the lowest level since 2007 when the recession began, according to a report Thursday by the foreclosure listing firm RealtyTrac Inc.
Americans are renovating again, and instead of letting resale value alone drive their renovation choices, in 2014 homeowners are weighing many more factors. They are seeking renovations that are beautiful, luxurious and eco-friendly, and that both enhance resale value and their ability to age in place should they choose not to sell down the road.
If you are a first-time homebuyer defined as someone who hasn't owned a home in the last three years you could be eligible for $6,500 in interest free down payment assistance.

In fact, fire pits are among the most popular features for enhancing an outdoor living space, according to the 2014 Residential Landscape Architecture Trends Survey conducted by the American Society of Landscape Architects. Even better, with little experience and materials, you can build a fire pit in just a few hours.

The tub tucked away in your home's master bathroom is so much more than a place to get clean. It's a calming refuge and therapeutic retreat after a busy, high-pressure day. Tub trends indicate that bathtubs are primarily used for soaking, while shower time is mainly for cleansing. The soaking tub has become the destination for relaxation amid today's fast-paced lifestyles.

Don't sweat it if your home doesn't have central air-conditioning. Whether you live in an older house that can't accommodate ductwork, or you don't want to sacrifice your interior aesthetics with an unattractive air conditioning unit, you can still keep your home feeling - and looking - cool this summer with advanced air conditioning technology.
WASHINGTON (AP) - A key long-term U.S. mortgage rate dipped this week, the second drop after a large increase two weeks ago.
The addition of a new pet to the family is always a cause for celebration. Stress can occur, too, no matter how welcome the new addition. When you're thinking about adopting a pet from an animal shelter, some preparation can help ensure he or she is as safe and happy as possible.
As winter temperatures drop, the potential for higher utility bills goes up. Taking steps ahead of the cold season can help you trim costs and make your home more energy efficient, keeping those utility bills in check even as the winter weather rages.
Kitchen and bathroom remodeling projects can significantly add comfort, improve functionality and increase the home's resale value. Whichever reason drives homeowners to complete an improvement project, they need to pick one that also delivers a return on investment.

Winner of the 2004 Cave Canem Poetry Prize
The poems in Eye of Water are derived from the narrators experiences in what she calls her waking. She traces inspiration to the beginning of myth, to Eve in the Garden of Eden and states: We could spend our lives unraveling the mistake and discover that life was one great big chore, and inescapable. And the path is full of missteps and accidents because we cannot (or prefer not to) remember all that got us to that moment. My body seems to be a symptom of the past, so no matter who touches me, all the ghosts are waiting there. The chore becomes how to survive despite the flaws of our humanness that makes us brutal at times.

Washington, D.C., Resdience
Bill Timmerman
The apartment's original concrete slab ceiling prohibited architect Eddie Jones from adding conventional recessed lighting. Instead, he downlit soffits and uplit coves to gain extra illumination.
For mid-century Modern houses a desirable in-town lot can be a very dangerous place. With homeowner tastes running more toward the traditional, the vertical, and the grandiose, teardowns are a continuous threat. This 1950s original by noted local architect Clothiel Woodard Smith got lucky, first falling into the hands of a couple that understood and appreciated Modernism, then with this adept and respectful remodel by architect Robert Gurney.
One problem with the original house lay in the way one was forced to approach it. "You couldn't find the entry space," says Gurney, who gave the front door some presence with a tall, flat-roofed entry addition and opened up the path to the house with a detached carport whose abstract geometry echoes that of the main building. Concrete block—used at the back of the carport and in low landscape walls—weaves the building into its steeply sloping site. Gurney added volume and light to the living room by replacing a low butterfly roof with a higher flat roof. At the rear of the house, a high concrete block wall integrates the main level's outdoor deck with the pool deck, a full story below.
Inside, Gurney smoothed out kinks in the original floor plan, applying a sophisticated and restrained schedule of finishes. Floors are black slate and maple. Stark white walls contrast with dark wenge wood trim. Heavy aluminum plate provides an unusual and appealing accent material for shelves and a kitchen counter and backsplash. Our judges admired the way the remodeled building nestles into its mature landscape, rated the pool addition "awesome," and deemed the result "a very controlled composition with a very sophisticated color palette."

Tipping Suggestions - Farm & Fisherman Tavern [moved from Philadelphia]
- d
- dkupersmith Mar 20, 2014 12:58 PM
Went to Farm & Fisherman Tavern in Cherry Hill for lunch and enjoyed my meal.
When the check came I noticed that they like many others in the industry put suggested percentages and what the tip would be. But they also included the tax amount in the tip calculations.
Is this something that has become more common and I just haven't noticed since I usually calculate my own tip? I do tend to be generous when tipping but certainly don't include the state's portion of the bill.
On a $100 bill, tipping on the tax is an extra $1.40 if you are tipping 20%. I really think it's not something to worry about.
Every time I've seen those suggested amounts, they have been calculated from the total including sales tax.
I despise the tipping situation in the US and would much prefer a gratuity that is actually a gratuity, but doubt the situation will change in any meaningful way anytime soon.
re: jhpark
We very seldom tip less than 20% and only on rare occasions tip more. I could not agree more on your second paragraph comments. Every time I see the suggested tip amount I consider taking control and tipping below the amount shown. To alex's point, for me it is not the $1.40. I take offense to the obvious incorrect factors in the calculation. Tipping on Tax, oh please, it is just wrong.
re: Bacchus101
Here here. My tipping is much the same as yours Bacchus, and I resent including the tax, however small the amount.
Most of us are Philadelphians. Please don't expect us to do such advanced math.
re: PhillyBestBYOB
Interesting thought. Some us may be able to do non-linear regression analysis but calculation of a tip including taxes is beyond us, or should I say me; there for I don't include taxes in the calculation. A benefit of my inability with math.
re: Bacchus101
I don't see how it is that difficult. If you are tipping 20%, you just move the decimal over one place and then double it.
For example, if your total is $115.00 (with or without taxes), 10 percent is $11.50 and then x2 is $23. Even if you don't tip 20%, you can adjust up or down from there.
re: Philly Ray
Thanks for the math lesson. I think I have it. I suppose that in the post the tongue-in-cheek was not obvious.
re: Bacchus101
Sarcasm doesn't translate well over the internet, ;)
re: Philly Ray
Obviously in the case of my last post it most certainly did not for you. I will endeavor to do better or avoid sarcasm, if that is possible for me.
re: Bacchus101
I'm still confused.
I don't think about the tax being included. I look at the total and go from there. If my server has really contributed to my having a great meal, then I 'over tip'
I know people who say that's insulting... I have worked as a server and I've never been insulted by a REALLY good tip!
My Dear Father takes out the wine/booze AND the tax from the calculation and then tips from that, which I've tried to explain to him is just... well... wrong!
in many restaurants, the server has to tip out the service bar, so his removing that from the tip calculation, takes more money out of the servers pocket
re: cgarner
I remember people saying years ago that you tip on the food total at one percentage (I think this was when 15% was the norm) and then tip on wine, etc. at a second lessor percentage (say, 10%) and never on the tax.
but my tipping policy is pretty much just like yours cgarner ; )
I've noticed it on a few receipts. It doesn't offend me one way or the other. I'll tip whatever I was going to tip anyway. I've usually encountered this at places that are pretty bar service/alcohol heavy. Maybe its to help the buzzed not have to think so hard?
Don't worry, you're doing fine. Tipping on the amount gross of tax is not the US customary norm, but one is free to do it.
re: westsidegal
The whole topic about tipping on taxes reminds me of a guy at my tennis club. He often makes a point of saying that "as a matter of principle" he does not tip on taxes. Anytime he says something that imbecile, I always ask him how he calculates the amount of excise taxes that were implicit in contributing to his restaurant bill.
The reality, of course, is that the guy is a total cheapskate that will make any mental effort to rationalize not spending money. When it's his turn to provide beer and chips for a tennis game, rather that making a run to the local Safeway like everyone else, he will see it as an opportunity to clean out his pantry. The result is usually an odd collection of beer bottles and bags of chips two years past their expiration dates. But the guy sure knows how to rationalize being a cheapskate even though everyone realizes it and laughs at him behind his back.
To the real problem, when those suggested tips are listed it is by the credit card machine, there may be no merchant control on this feature.
lt was started as in large metro areas with many foreign travelers who do not tip in their country they needed 'guidance'.
Yet another vote for tip included in check total, works for me.
re: Delucacheesemonger
The credit card slip having some text suggesting tip percentages is a "real problem"?
re: nocharge
To this issue yes, if they had not printed the tip possibilities including tip on sales tax, we would not be having this thread.
re: Delucacheesemonger
And what stops people from tipping whatever they want? That's what I do. But most people seem to be more into having sheepish discussions on the internet about whether 15, 18, or 20 percent is right.
re: nocharge
As do l, but the OP brought up this issue and all l am saying is that they CC company is the one who adds the tip percentages, whether on taxes or not, not the restaurant.
Cheeesh .
re: Delucacheesemonger
You are the one who suggested that there was a "real problem". My take: don't be a Nervous Nellie asking around the internet about how much you should tip. You will come across as clueless and that's the best-case scenario. And suggested percentages on a credit-card slip? Well, who gives a rat's ass?

Dastardly DeedThe airport was extremely busy while she weaved through it.Luckily, she seemed to blend in with the crowd despite her red puffy cheeks from the sunlight outside. Her sharp blue eyes scanned the crowd for the gate to her plane across the ocean. She carried a black suitcase in her left hand to disguise herself among the humans as another traveler. No one seemed to notice as she weaved her way through the crowd to peer over another womans shoulder innocently at the front of the line. Lorelei raised her eyes to look over the strawberry-blonde womans shoulder. She watched carefully as the woman showed an ID and took her ticket. Loreleis deep blue eyes found the name she was searching for Dierdre Negrescu. She smiled to herself as she was about to step forward and claim the ticket that would plop her right down next to Dierdre on the plane. However, a rather rude young teenage boy cut her off and took the ticket before her eyes. She watched with contempt as he wande

The private rooms here really are excellent; comfy beds, a great shower and nicely decorated. Much better than the standard of private rooms in most hostels. The location is great for the V&A Waterfront, which is just a short walk away.

Make Web Traffic EveryoneŌĆÖs Business
In August 2006, b-to-b publisher Access Intelligence transformed its circulation department into an audience development department, which would focus on Web and traffic-building as part of its overall audience-generating efforts. It was then that senior vice president of audience development Sylvia Sierra realized the job could not rest entirely on the audience development marketing staff alone.
As a result, Access Intelligence created ŌĆ£Traffic SquadsŌĆØ to serve each of its five markets: Satellite, cable, chemical engineering, aviation and media. Every week the Web publisher, editor, audience development director and marketing/communications specialists from each market get together for a meeting to go over all of the Web activity from the prior week.
ŌĆ£You see a lot of companies now with e-media divisions that take care of all the e-media offerings,ŌĆØ says Sierra. ŌĆ£We made the decision that Web traffic and community is everyoneŌĆÖs business.ŌĆØ
The traffic squads discuss the Web metrics and activity over the prior weekŌĆöeverything from unique visitors and traffic to what the top editorial stories wereŌĆöto determine what content is bringing in the audience. ŌĆ£Knowing whatŌĆÖs happening on the edit side on the Web allows for the marketers in marketing, communications and audience development to create partnerships and work with advertisers on programs that will bring people to the right landing page,ŌĆØ says Sierra.
In some markets, traffic has grown between 15 and 20 percent since the creation of the traffic squads. New products include pay-per-view Webinars, which have increased in frequency from one per quarter to monthly. New e-letters have emerged from the companyŌĆÖs various markets due to the squadsŌĆÖ analysis and better understanding of the community. All of the electronic products have brought in more revenue from advertisers and sponsors.
In terms of financial impact, the company expects a bottom-line delivery of at least 40 percent. ŌĆ£The Web has a very long tail that allows us to look at new and merging markets and take the power of information in multiple, cross-markets,ŌĆØ says Sierra. ŌĆ£The challenge is transforming the thinking of limited print real estate versus the idea that I can service information to many markets, and thatŌĆÖs okay.ŌĆØ
Challenges with the new strategy included the process of getting internal staff members to understand the difference between traffic and community, says Sierra. ŌĆ£One of the great lessons learned is that traffic is a good indication of people coming in and out of your Web site but it doesnŌĆÖt necessarily address community,ŌĆØ she says. ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs important to not just look at Web traffic but also define the audience and then realize where your community is.ŌĆØ
Training employees from the various publishing units to become familiar with e-media tasks and procedures also took time and resources. ŌĆ£TheyŌĆÖve had to learn a whole new language and a whole new set of metrics,ŌĆØ says Sierra. ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs confirmed that in audience development, no one knows more about how to define an audience and unite buyers and sellers in a community than traditional circulators do.ŌĆØ

|Rockies call up Stewart, place Baker on 15-day DL after he was hit in head by pitch
|Written by Admin
|Saturday, 11 August 2007 12:54
Stewart was scheduled to make his major league debut against the Chicago Cubs, starting at third base. The 22-year-old was hitting .304 with 15 home runs and 65 RBIs for the Colorado Springs Sky Sox.
``We're bringing up a guy that's done a good job and has some barrel to his bat,'' Rockies manager Clint Hurdle said. ``He's been on a nice run, and he seemed to be the fit for the time. Whether the opportunity is short or long, we'll figure that out as we go along.''
Baker was hit in the head with a pitch by Cubs pitcher Jason Marquis on Friday night. Baker suffered a mild concussion and a cut on his cheek.
``That's as good as we could have hoped for with the circumstances we're dealing with,'' Hurdle said of Baker's injury. ``Anytime you see that happen, you go to a scary place. He's pretty resilient.''

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
City needs to reduce police OT: councillor
Protection and community services chairman Coun. Scott Fielding said the city needs to develop a strategy to reduce police overtime costs.
Last year, a special police traffic enforcement drive cost $860,000 in overtime, according to documents obtained by traffic activist group WiseUp Winnipeg.
Fielding said the overtime cost is obviously too high, and the city needs to work with police and the new police board to develop a strategy to reduce it. He said the city should examine whether it makes more sense to devote more officers to the traffic unit, which would be cheaper than bringing in officers to work overtime.
"Right now the levels are unacceptable," Fielding said.
