- Unexpected fun timeOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/7/2014This place is not for the younger, just turned 21, type of crowd. Which is the reason why I enjoyed this place. Good music, great food, and service. I will return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/7/2014Owner & staff were nice enough to accommodate our large group - double the people came than we expected. Thank you to Lenny and the great wait staff!Special Features:
- Rooftop!ElleVIPDined on 11/6/2014The rooftop bar proved very popular with my group; we loved it. The food itself was nothing special, but not bad, either. I'd say it's better than what you'll find at most bars, but probably not as nice as what you'd get at a good restaurant.
- Small Plates for Sharing, Big TasteArtSCCDined on 10/31/2014Casual atmosphere with seating outdoors and indoors (but the indoors is really "out") and a great rooftop. Food is served basically in small plates for sharing. Come early for happy hour and much of the menu is half priced. Definitely a place we will return to.Special Features:
- HydeParkLindaVIPDined on 10/26/2014Ryan was our server in the bar area, and she was great! We really like the live music on Sunday nights.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding experience!DavidDined on 10/15/2014The food was outstanding, the service was great .We will definitely be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- New menu items!FormerVirginianVIPDined on 9/27/2014Liked the fact that there were several new items on the menu and enjoyed most of it -- as always have in the past! But don't waste your time with the Thai Chili Drumettes, as they had no flavor!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Eclectic diningJOLYNDined on 9/16/2014Fly Bar is an exciting place with interesting food as small plates so plenty of sharing with friends! Art work by locals adorn the walls and the metal work throughout the restaurant is very cool!Special Features:
- Great, as always!ChrisDined on 9/13/2014We go to Fly for the food since we are not much into the bar scene. We always have the Ropa Vieja and the Garlic Frites and this time we tried the Sliders. Outstanding...Special Features:
- Fun food, fun sceneTampaFoodieDined on 8/23/2014A surprisingly great evening. Food was great. Mac n Cheese and Brussels sprouts were yummy, but HEAVY, and best shared among 4. Tuna was great. Flank steak merely ok. Salmon tartare was awesome. Scene was so fun and drinks were great! Highly recommend!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food. Great time.Edgecpt09Dined on 8/23/2014We were impressed with the quality of the food. The waitress knew the menu very well and was able to help us when we were undecided. It's a tapas kind of place. So between my wife and I we odered 4 items and were satisfied. It was a great experience. After diner we went upstairs and had a beer and watched the sunset. We will definitely be going back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mac N CheesefotoboyzphilDined on 8/18/2014Fun place downtown tampa. They make excellent Sangria (only by the glass no pitchers) Ropa Veja just OK not enough spice. BUT the Mac N Cheese ROCKED smoky, flavorful,l unique style of noodle good stuff plus, we had some excellent fries with garlic as well. Well, not healthy food but good fun bar food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- yummy!coolkittyDined on 8/9/2014The outside patio was very nice for conversation, the service was pretty good (albeit a little bit slow on a Saturday night) and the food was AMAZING. And a good selection of interesting beers. I will definitely go again, but will sit outside where it's a little less quieter.Special Features:
- The following 286 reviews are from the Fly Bar & Restaurant reviews archive.
- ExcellentTaco432Dined on 7/29/2014Friendly wait staff. Good food. A little loud, but I like that in a restaurant. Very lively scene.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great BarLeeesDined on 7/25/2014This has been a favorite restaurant of mine for some time given the food and the ambience. I went recently with my husband and another couple. We reserved a table for 4 at 6:00 on a Friday. From the moment we arrived, the noise was defeaning and we had to shout at each other to be understood. The menu has changed and there are less healthy options and more pub-like foods. I think Fly Bar is a great bar if that's what you are seeking. If you'd like to enjoy a dinner and conversation, either forget it or go on a very slow night.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- EclecticlmacDined on 7/15/2014Rafael was our server and he was great. Loved the rabbit tacos and the braised octopus. Cool restaurant.Special Features:
- abesoluDined on 6/30/2014Rabbit tacos were great, and the Mac & Cheese turned out to be her favorite dish. I thought the atmosphere was wonderful, but i forgot you guys had an outdoor roof deck. I know it's not the establishment's fault, but i wish that we could have been reminded to take a trip upstairs to hang out. Especially since it rained earlier that day and cooled the temp down considerably.Special Features:
- Love the Food, Not the Hard ChairsalitryallDined on 6/25/2014I chose this place for a girl's night date with my good friend. She enjoyed the atmosphere but the dining quarters were a little cramped & one person had to sit in a very uncomfortable hard chair. They do have Live Music but it does become a bit of a yelling match with your dining partner. The food was great, very interesting mix and I loved my drink the "Poolside in Mexico"...I am a die hard Margarita fan & this drink gives Tequila a whole new meaning. Great stop for an app & drink maybe before a night out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Hot spot for young dinersjakeVIPDined on 6/21/2014I am a very young 66 year old and my wife is young. We love all kinds of places and although we might not return, we found this a great spot. It is truly for the young. Hopping bar scene (I am sure it gets better as night goes on) has music and the food is really good. Lots of sharing and small plates. Wine list was fair. Cocktail list was inventive and I recommend the bourbon special, kind of like a sweet manhattan. Would not recommend if your looking for quite romantic table cloth dinner. I knew what it was and enjoyed it.Special Features:
- Fantastic experienceSouthTampaFoodieGalDined on 6/15/2014I dined here in a group of four on a Sunday evening. It was fairly empty, but live music kept the place feeling energetic. Our server was prompt and friendly. The cocktails were inventive and reasonably priced ($9-$12). I recommend the Bee's Knees- it was delicious! As for the food... it was INCREDIBLE. Some of the plates are larger than others, so be sure to ask your server about portion size. My husband and I got the hanger steak and snapper. We also had the nachos with guacamole (which were huge- glad we had 4 people on hand to eat them) and the truffle mac (a must). Literally every dish was phenomenal. Highly recommend.. we'll be back!!Special Features:
- Good food but very loud ambience.JulesDined on 6/15/2014This was my 4 th visit to Fly Bar & Restaurant. The menu choices are somewhat eclectic as is the atmosphere. I love the food. It is unique and not commonly found at other restaurants. My favorite is the Hangar Steak. It was cooked to perfection with a lot of flavor. I went with my husband and adult children and everyone enjoyed their meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 5/30/2014One of my favorite restaurants in Tampa! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu.Special Features:
- Fantastic FoodAlwaysEnjoyFoodVIPDined on 5/22/2014This our 3rd time at Fly and always find to food of high quality, always new items and a great way of tasting many different items. Gourmet without the fanciness. Solid dishes and taste!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/20/2014My wife and I received wonderful service! Our female server was very attentive but not overly so. It was "just right"! The food was good. Our only downside was that we had wanted to be able to go to the rooftop but were told by the hostess that it was only open Thurs, Fri & Sat nights. Since we arrived on a Tuesday, the rooftop was not available to us. I might be wrong...but I don't recall the restaurant's website specifically mentioning the rooftop's availability. We will return again though. I think this restaurant is a nice asset for downtown Tampa. Congratulations!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Unique Urban Dining SpotLeeesDined on 5/17/2014Fly Bar was once again fabulous and delicious. The four of us split orders of tuna tartar, seared scallops, truffle mac and cheese, kale and arugala salad and a fabulous bottle of wine recommended by Chuck our server. Chuck is amazing by the way: passionate about the menu and the wine list, he is knowledgeable, fun and engaging - request him when you visit! All in all it was a great night out at Fly Bar and we will definitely be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Vibrantly DeliciousKMaxDined on 5/16/2014Enjoy an artisanal cocktail with friends. Soak up the art vibe and underlying club beat. Take in the sunset on the rooftop bar and watch the city lights come up. Go downstairs into a U shaped table and order small plates and more drinks! The rabbit tacos were amazingly good! Orange chicken was also exceptional. And never pass up the truffle Mac & Cheese!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great before the StrazmaliceDined on 5/14/2014We love going to the Fly before the Straz. The food is interesting and delicious. Always served piping hot and timely. Good drinks too. Love the decor but a bit noisy for conversation.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food at the FlyFlyontheWallDined on 5/9/2014No wait, service was prompt, menu offered many selections but the portions were quite small, much like those at a French style restaurant. The taste of the two selections, namely salmon and pork chops, were very tasty and presented elegantly. Overall, a very pleasant dining experience. Would recommend to a friend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- It was okOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 4/26/2014Service started of great until we ordered fries and realized that the restaurant does not carry regular ketchup and mustard. This should be changed cause not all people like spicy ketchup! We couldn't eat the fries and barely touched it but or server didn't seemed to care or offer to take it off the bill. We had other dishes which were great and drinks were awesome. Music wasn't that great either- went upstairs hoping for a different genre but it wasn't the same- no music I recognized.Special Features:
- Love Small BitesOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 4/26/2014Love the fact all entree's are small bites and can be shared....thus far (second time at the restaurant) food is great!Special Features:
- Love this Place!OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 4/25/2014Fly is one of my favorite places to eat and drink. The food is always exceptional, and the bartenders know how to make some of the best drinks in Tampa.Special Features:
- Flying High or some other clicheapa52Dined on 4/19/2014The service was excellent-- and the food was amazing (especially the truffle mac n cheese), but the portion sizes for the price, eh. As good as the food was, I feel it was a bit over priced. Otherwise, everything was excellent. The food tasted amazing, awesome drinks, and amazing service.Special Features:
- Disorganized but good foodTampadinerDined on 4/12/2014Recommended for the food, but be in the mood for a loud and disorganized dinner. Even in a small party of two, the main entree selections did not come to the table at the same time; so late that one finished before the other (and nothing significantly different on the preparation between the two) and the Mac&Cheese we were looking forward to trying didn't make it to the table. Not only my small party, but the couples sitting both to the right and left had the same issue. In addition drinks were either very late or in our case one time didn't even make it to the table before the end of the meal. The waitress was kind enough to remove one of the drink items that was served off the bill. Treat as a Tapas place if you go.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Food, Great Energy!FrannieVEDined on 4/8/2014An easy walk from The Straz, we eat here at least once a month as it is an 1 1/2 hour drive for us. The menu is eclectic to say the least. Tuna tartar and truffled mac and cheese are two of my favorite dishes and, I know that this sounds crazy, but the brussel sprouts are wonderful. The food is brought out as it is prepared so it is always at the ideal temperature. The staff is friendly and very accommodating.Special Features:
- amazingOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 4/3/2014As a local chef I wasn't sure what to expect from this place. But when I walked in I knew it would be great. The food was over the top. Ihhad the truffled mac n cheese and braised short rib. The service was amazing and the cocktails were on point. Ill def. Be going back yo visit again soonSpecial Features:
- Fun but ...DavidDined on 4/3/2014Reflective of a new generation with different expectations about serviceSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best place to eat near the StrazOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 4/3/2014We have been 3 times. Twice when going to the Straz ,and this last time we had tickets to an event at the Tampa Theatre. It's walking distance to both of these venues. Good happy hour with some half price small plates. Garlic fries were yummy. Nachos are good but don't get the ropa vieja put on top makes it soggy. I would get it on the side!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pre-Concert KnoshingJigettaDined on 3/30/2014Perfect fit for drinks and dining prior to a show at the Tampa Theater. Staff was spot on and the food and drinks were perfectly crafted. We were running late because of traffic from Pinellas County and they held our table for us-nice!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Small Plate Extravaganzaluv2dineDined on 3/21/2014The food here is fabulous. Offered as small plates and fit for sharing if you choose. The chef takes some standards but adds his own unique twist to them, making them del standouts. Try the Duck Confit Fried Rice, Brussell Sprouts & Macaroni and Cheese. They will titillate your palate. Don't skip dessert... the profiteroles are to die for!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Had an excellent 1st experience.JRiley1980Dined on 3/11/2014Had an excellent 1st experience. Decided to sit at the bar and Jason took great care of us. I've got nothing but good things to say about everything from, service, food, cocktails, atmosphere, etc. we will be back soon.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

New Pair A Dime
Last year I bought one of those low cost tiny BeagleBone Black computers, and recently started to re-play with it. Re-playing is when you start to play with something but for what ever reason you don't get to finish playing with it to your satisfaction, so set it aside to re-play with later.
The thing that is really amazing to me is that this little credit card sized device is actually a computer. A pair of dimes illustrate its size. I guess you could say small devices are becoming the new paradigm.

Imagine being a human 100 years ago. Or a thousand, or even ten thousand years ago. Even though it is probably normal to dismiss the thoughts and concerns of by-gone generations I would dare say their life was just as important to them as ours is to us. Through letters, drawings and other miscellaneous graffiti they recorded their world. We have what has survived to decode and compare with our seemly important lives. And we too record. But in our time we not limited to the traditional mediums of the past but also to the digitally encoded work we do. I wonder if the software we write today will be around 100 years from now? Or a thousand?

Boiling, Ling Chi (slow slicing), Chariot-tearing, Castration, the list goes on… Ancient Chinese were pretty creative at torturing prisoners. Here are some Chinese punishment methods that are considered the cruelest in China.
1. Flaying (剥皮)
Flaying is the cruelest punishment method among all. The executioner will remove the skin from the body of a living prisoner. The victim will be flayed alive in public and then the skin is nailed to the wall as a warning, so others would can learn from the lesson and never ever dare to defy the law.
2. Waist Chopping (腰 斩)
Waist Chopping, as its name implies, means cutting a person's body into half by chopping the waist. Because a person's major organs are on the upper half of the body, the prisoner will not die immediately after execution and will still be alive for some time before death.
3. Ling Chi (凌 迟)
Ling Chi is Chinese name for execution by slow cutting. In the execution, the executioner will slowly cut the criminal's flesh into hundreds or even thousands of pieces. The victim often has to endure the pain for several hours before death. Moreover, the executioner must be very skillful, if the victim die immediately, or the slicing method is incorrect, the executioner may also be punished. This brutal punishment was used in China until 1905.
4. Chariot-tearing (车裂 )
Chariot-tearing, commonly known as "5 horses tearing the body," is one of the cruelest punishments in ancient China. Just tie the criminal's head, two hands and two legs to five ropes connected to five horses or chariots and drive the horses in 5 different directions, and thereby tearing a person's body into 6 parts.The victim can feel the great pain during this tearing. Shang Yang (390-338 BC), a well-known reformer of Qin Kingdom in the Warring States Period was executed by this brutal punishment.
5. Five Cutting (俱五刑)
Five Cutting means cutting off the head, feet, hands, ears and gouging out eyes. After Emperor Gaozu's death, Empress Dowager Lü Zhi had the emperor's Concubine Qi`s hands and feet chopped off, ears, nose and tongue sliced off, eyes gouged out and threw her into a piglet. She called Qi a "Human Swine". Several days after, Emperor Hui, the son of Lü Zhi, saw the "Human Swine", he was shocked by his mother's cruelty and the temperament changed greatly, he then indulged in heavy drinking died one year later.
6. Hanging by the Bowstring ( 缢 首)
In other countries, the hanging is a widely used penalty. While in ancient China executioners use the bowstring to carry out death penalty. the bow is put around prisoner`s neck with the bowstring facing forward, the executioner then begins to rotate the bow from the back until the criminal strangled.
7. Boiling (烹煮)
The executioner put the prisoner in a big pot filled with water or oil and then heat the water up with fire below. As the water temperature rises, the prisoner will be boiled to death. Boiling to death has been used in many different dynasties of ancient China.
8. Castration (宫 刑)
What does castration mean? It is a kind of cruel penalty to remove men's genitalia (penis and testicles). In ancient China, castration was a traditional way to punish war prisoners or traitors, even high-ranking officials might face this brutal punishment.
9. Riding "Wooden Horse"
This is a cruel old punishment specifically designed to punish the woman who colludes with adulterer to murder her husband. According to the ancient Chinese book "Twenty-Four Histories": First, erect a wooden pillar on a piece of wood, then hang up the female prisoner on the top end of the pillar, forcing the wooden pillar into her vagina, then release her and let the body fall until the wooden pillar "pierces out from her nose and mouth, and often the victim has to bear the pain for several days before death."
10. The Nine Familial Exterminations (株连九族)
The Nine Familial Exterminations was the most serious punishment in Ancient China. It means if one person commits a capital offense, his/her family members and relatives must face the same penalty. This penalty was typically associated with offenses such as treason, the punishment was applied to an individual's all relatives, which were categorized into nine groups.

Why We FightI think this as I fight my final battle.
I know it's futile, I know I will lose.
My strength is too far gone, but I keep fighting,
Fighting for you.
These cuts that would leave scars, if only they would heal.
You show me what's worth fighting for, and tell me
"You don't need to be strong to be brave."
The sweat drips in my eyes as I swing my blade around
And cut through all their throats;
I find the will to stand.
The power comes from you, the thought of who you are
What you stand for
Why you fight.

When I first saw these creamy eyeshadows at my local CVS, my first thought was "look at all the pretty colors!" These remind me so much of MAC's paintpots back in the day when they had colorful ones. (not sure why they stick to just the boring colors now- *sigh*)
What are they?
Colorful cream eyeshadows that come in 10 shades and last up to 24 hours.
What I love:
What I hate:
I must say that I'm VERY impressed with these cream eyeshadows- especially for the price. Even the packaging is the perfect size- it's easy to get my fingers into ;)
The only downside is that if you try to blend the shimmery colors too much, the color starts to disappear. However, the matte colors are incredibly pigmented and blend very well. I really don't have much negative to say about these eyeshadows! Good job Maybelline.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Completion of Acquisition or
As previously disclosed, on May 13, 2013, Banc of California, National Association, a national banking association (the "Bank") and the successor to Pacific Trust Bank, a federal savings bank, entered into a three-year employment agreement (the "Employment Agreement") with Jeffrey T. Seabold. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Seabold granted to the Bank and its parent company, Banc of California, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), an option (the "CS Agreement Option"), exercisable (or not) in the Company's and the Bank's sole discretion on or prior to September 10, 2013, to enter into an agreement to acquire CS Financial, Inc., a California corporation and Southern California-based mortgage banking firm controlled by Mr. Seabold ("CS Financial"), upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Employment Agreement.
On July 29, 2013, in accordance with the Employment Agreement, the Company and the Bank delivered notice to Mr. Seabold and CS Financial of the exercise of the CS Agreement Option, and on October 25, 2013, the Company and the Bank entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with CS Financial, the stockholders of CS Financial (the "Sellers") and Mr. Seabold, as the Sellers' Representative. The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, CS Financial will merge with and into a newly formed California corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank (the "Merger"), with CS Financial continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, which has been approved by the Board of Directors of each of the Company, the Bank and CS Financial, at the effective time of the Merger, the outstanding shares of common stock of CS Financial will be converted into the right to receive in the aggregate: (1) upon the closing of the Merger, (a) 173,791 shares (the "Closing Date Shares") of voting common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "Company Common Stock"), and (b) $4,650,000 in cash (provided that if the Merger closes before January 1, 2014, $3,150,000 of the cash consideration will be replaced with a noninterest-bearing note issued by the Company to Mr. Seabold that will be due on January 2, 2014); and (2) upon the achievement of certain performance targets by the Bank's Residential Lending Division following the closing of the Merger that are set forth in the Merger Agreement, up to 92,781 shares (the "Performance Shares") of Company Common Stock ((1) and (2), together, the "Merger Consideration").
The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties from the Company, the Bank, CS Financial and the Sellers, and each party has agreed to customary covenants, including, among others, covenants relating to (1) the conduct of CS Financial's business during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the closing of the Merger and (2) CS Financial's obligations to facilitate its stockholders' consideration of, and voting upon, the approval of the Merger Agreement and the Merger. CS Financial's stockholders approved the Merger Agreement and the Merger by unanimous written consent on October 25, 2013.
Completion of the Merger is subject to certain customary conditions, including
(1) approval of the Merger Agreement by CS Financial's stockholders, (2) receipt of any required regulatory approvals and (3) the absence of any law or order prohibiting the consummation of the Merger.
Each party's obligation to complete the Merger also is subject to certain additional customary conditions, including without limitation (a) the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party, subject to certain exceptions, and (b) the performance in all material respects by the other parties of their obligations under the Merger Agreement.
The Merger Agreement provides certain customary termination rights for the Company and the Bank, on the one hand, and CS Financial, on the other hand. The Merger Agreement also contains customary indemnification obligations by the Sellers, including with respect to breaches of representations, warranties or covenants and certain other specified matters. Certain of the indemnification obligations of the Sellers are subject to a cap and other limitations on liability.

When Sojourner Truth appeared to speak at the 1851 Women's Rights Convention in Akron, Ohio, it would not be her first clash with activists who didn't want to hear her speak.
In 1858, she would be asked by Dr. T.W. Strain to bear her breasts to the women present at an anti-slavery meeting in Kosciusko County, Indiana to prove that, contrary to rumor, she was not a man.
She chose not to do it in a back room, but instead before the entire delegation as she reminded attendees how many white children she had breastfed.
According to an account by Frances Gage, a noted abolitionist and women's rights activist who presided over the 1851 meeting, the women present were hostile about mixing the cause against slavery with the cause of women's suffrage.
They did not know yet that this would be the historic meeting where she would deliver her now-famous "Ain't I A Woman?" speech.
A former slave who was illiterate, Sojourner Truth proved to be a tour de force as an orator and a formidable symbol for women's rights. Born Isabella Baumfree around 1797 in Ulster County, New York, she had learned over the course of her life to resist any situation that was undesired and press the social system for justice.
As a young woman who was enslaved, Dutch - the language of her first owner, Colonel Johannis Hardenburgh - was her first language. When she was sold for $100 to the Neelys, they beat her relentless for not speaking English.
The Neelys sold her after a couple of years to a tavern keeper named Schriver and learned English, but still spoke with a Dutch accent for the rest of her life.
By the time she was 13 and reached her last owners, the Dumonts, she fell in love with a slave named Robert, owned by a neighboring slave master. She was not allowed to marry Robert, but forced to marry a much older man, Thomas. She and Thomas had five children.
Though the state of New York had already made a decision to free all of its slaves by July 4, 1827, Sojourner found herself unable to wait for freedom.
The Dumonts had promised to grant her freedom a year early, but reneged on their promise. She took her youngest child, Sophia, and left finding safety with a young Quaker couple Isaac and Maria van Wagenen.
By custom, Quakers generally did not believe in slavery. When John Dumont came looking for Sojourner, they paid him $25 for her freedom. She took on the van Wagenen's surname.
Later, an unprecedented event would become one of the many times she challenged the system of oppression that plagued blacks. When she discovered her son Peter had been illegally sold into slavery in Alabama, she sued the Dumont man who sold him and won Peter's freedom.
One other time in her life, she sued for wrongdoing in the court system. As a member of a religious communal living group, she and a leader of the group were accused of murder when one of the other members died from apparent poisoning. They were both acquitted, but Sojourner sued for slander and won.
As she began traveling and speaking out against the evils of slavery, Isabella van Wagenen changed her name to Sojourner Truth. Because she had become an itinerant preacher, she felt this name better reflected her mission.
There are many significant reasons the speech Sojourner Truth made to the women at the 1851 convention was crucial. It represented the first time any activist had combined the causes of abolition and women's rights.
As she endured racial slurs and jeers from the women there, who saw her race as a hindrance to her abilities to speak for women, she became the quintessential feminist symbol. By repeatedly asking the question, "ain't I a woman," she placed both the convention and nation on notice that there were U.S. citizens who suffered dual - not opposing - persecutions.
Additionally, this speech was a landmark achievement for a woman who could not read and write. Just a year earlier, she had secured help from Olive Gilbert to help her write her own autobiography. She wanted to use the money from the sale of the book to buy a house and finance some of her travels.
In terms of composition, the speeches were stunning. Sojourner Truth used humor, biblical references and controversy to drive her points home to her audiences.
As with most of her speeches, the "Ain't I A Woman" speech was not written. She spoke from memory and delivered one of the most memorable elocutions in the history of blacks and women.
What we know of this speech was written as an account of the convention by Frances Gage twelve years later in 1863. Gage's enhanced account appeared less than a month in the "Anti-Slavery Standard" less than a month after an account appeared by Harriet Beecher Stowe in the "Atlantic Monthly."
In fact, there are many different versions of the speech that exist. These multiple accounts have led to the images we now generally associate with Sojourner Truth. Gage's account reveals her as a "tall, gaunt black woman in a gray dress and white turban, surmounted with an uncouth sunbonnet, [who] march[ed] deliberately into the church, walk[ed] with the air of a queen up the aisle, and [took] her seat upon the pulpit steps."
Perhaps the biggest legacy Sojourner Truth leaves the world with her "Ain't I A Woman" speech is the supporting evidence provided by her own life. She traveled extensively for her causes creating a reputation that earned her the ear of President Abraham Lincoln and fellow abolitionist Frederick Douglass. This was not a traditional role for a woman of her time.
But because she chose to live beyond the bounds of tradition, she paved the way for a long line of women who no longer had to pose the presiding question of her now famous speech.
Rather than asking the world "Ain't I a woman," women from Sojourner Truth forward could reorder her words as an affirmation: "I *am* a woman."

Checking to figure out whether ephedrine is legal to buy in California? You're not alone! Due to much of the confusing information published on the legal status of ephedrine in the United States, many people are unsure of whether this supplement can be purchased in California. While there are several laws in place to ensure that this well-known ephedra alkaloid is not sold for illicit purposes, you can purchase ephedrine HCL for personal use.
Ephedrine is regulated in the state of California by the California Health and Safety Code which considers ephedrine and pseudoephedrine to be precursor chemical. What that means is that these two compounds can be used in the production of controlled substances such as meth. In an effort to stomp out the methamphetamine trade in the USA, the federal government instituted the Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act of 2005. This act places certain limits on quantities of ephedrine sold to a single person in the US as well as requires a record of identification to be submitted with every purchase of the supplement.
There are some that feel this requirement unduly sanctions individuals who want to buy ephedrine for legitimate reasons, but they serve an important purpose. California has further implemented certain policies regarding the sale of pseudoephedrine and ephedrine above and beyond the federal ones. For example, there is a 3 package or 9 gram limit of ephedrine purchased per transaction. This law pre-empts any local California ordinances that may be put in place to regulate the supplement. Retailers are also required to report and record any "threshold" purchases of the compound – that is, purchases that reach the maximum dosage limit.
If that makes you wary of buying ephedrine in California, you should know that it is perfectly legal to possess this supplement for legitimate personal use. Individuals who buy less three packages of the supplement for weight loss purposes generally have nothing to worry about. It is only against the law to buy ephedrine with the intent to use it as an ingredient in the making of other illegal drugs.
Ephedrine has been used in the state of California for centuries – in fact, one of the species of the Ephedra plant – Ephedra Californica – is named after the state! Just remember to follow safe doctor-approved dosage guidelines when using this supplement for fat burning and weight loss. Never exceed the recommended dose or you may experience unwanted side effects.

This small, sheltered campground is tucked away just off the Catalina Highway, along the rocky streambed that forms the floor of upper Bear Canyon. Campsites are nestled under a canopy of ponderosa pines, junipers and oaks. Some sites are located right along Bear Creek among large rocks. The Creek generally only flows during rainy periods or during the Spring snowmelt, but be vigilant of flash floods.

Good Morning.
I hope that you are getting this new week started of in a HAPPY mood, if not it could spoil the whole day for you. Remember that we talk so much about that nice , clean unspotted sheet that God gives us every morning. We have the responsibility of keeping it clean until we lay down on our bed tonight, we will need help to do that.
So many things will try to hinder, don't ever forget " The world, flesh and devil " we will have those things to hinder us until our last day on this earth.
Gentle snowflakes fall upon me,
Melting fast upon my face,
There's no way that I can keep them,
If in my heart they have no place.
Very fragile, very special,
Are these snowflakes from the sky
They remind me of my dear ones,
As they gracefully flutter by.
Scarcely do I see their beauty,
Barely do their rare imprints
Fix themselves upon my fingers,
Till I'm wondering where they went.
In this world so temporary,
Filled with ephemeral things,
Surely everything is fleeting,
Flying 'way on speeding wings.
Like the snowflakes that are melting,
When they touch my skin so warm,
Yes, myself, my friends, my family,
We're on that solemn journey home.
Snowflakes can't be kept in bottles,
You can't grasp them as they fly,
You just have to dearly love them,
As they slowly flutter by.
We cannot keep what can't be held,
And just as snowflakes disappear,
Often on life's lonely landscape
We're deprived of what is dear.
Yet no one really leaves us,
Though we're far, so far apart,
As long as we believe in snowflakes,
And keep them always in our hearts.

I am feeling good this morning and I would say that I am in a HAPPY mood,the good nights rest helped me so much.

We are enjoying some much warmer weather, this morning it is 44 degrees and very much appreciated. I has been in the low teens which did give me a little scare but they cam through o.k. I let them run all night and that helped.
I don't think that Mary and I have plans for today, but she said that we were going to make a few Videos, she has a camera that is in good shape to go.
I am going to stop with a lot not being said, I always do it seems, I am just not able to think this early in the morning.

It's 25 years since we first set out to visualise unbuilt architecture by combining art and technology. Our core purpose remains the same today as it was back then: to help great buildings be built.
We have been lucky enough to work with great architects on many of the world's most amazing buildings. Exponentially developing technology has supercharged the opportunity to expand this new medium.
So this year Hayes Davidson is celebrating. We've always been fond of a good party and this year will be no different. It's an exciting time ahead.

The new transit center is at the heart of local efforts to dramatically transform the Kent's downtown core into a thriving employment, business and cultural center.
The U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) provided $20 million for the $25 million project through the TIGER (Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery) grant program. The remaining cost was covered by local funding sources.
The new transit center is at the heart of local efforts to dramatically transform the Kent's downtown core into a thriving employment, business and cultural center. The facility is central to a larger effort by the city, university and private developers to invest roughly $125 million to develop over 500,000 square feet of office and retail space; a new hotel and conference center, which opened in June; and a new county courthouse — all within walking distance of the Gateway facility.
According to the Portage Area Regional Transportation Authority (PARTA), which provides public transit service within Kent and the surrounding communities, more than 250 jobs were created during construction of the project, and hundreds of additional new jobs in the city are also expected due to related development.
PARTA will begin operating service out of the new transit center on Aug. 12. The facility will provide improved access between downtown Kent and the university, and serve as a key transfer location for PARTA and regional bus routes, connecting riders to Akron, Cleveland and other locations in Portage County.
The facility also includes parking, pedestrian and bicycle connections to provide additional options for residents and visitors to get around.

The restaurant was excellent my husband certainly enjoyed is steak and the staff where very good. Very comfortable dinning room.
Staff great. Food brilliant. Great historic building. I would definitely stay again.
Beautiful accommodations Delicious food
Dinner service abysmal. Had to ask for the wine list thrice. Only two couples in the dining room, yet waitstaff nowhere to be found.
food, location
variability of dining room service
Friendly staff, good food and a lovely building. Bathroom was a bit dated with paint peeling off in spades, though was clean.
Limited wine list as no half bottles though house wine (only one by the glass) was ok.
location, the hall itself and the grounds, the room.
slow service for a bar snack,
Grounds lovely, food and restaurant excellent plus helpful staff
Additional expensive surcharge on room service
We were in the junior suite, it was a little overpriced for the area, but still a good sized room. The dinner menue although very limited was good and value for money. A good selection of wine.
The dinner menue was the same few covers each night. By our second night we had exhausted our choices. The third night we ordered from the "all day bar menue" only to be told that if it was a busy night we wouldn't be able to order. However they would take our order. From asking for the menue and getting our food it was just 2 hours! it did make us feel a little second class and that we should be greatfull we even got served. Our 3 night stay with food etc cost about £750. I'm sure there's lots of other local hotels that would give us better service next time we are in the area.
a very short drive from the M6 brought us to this haven of calm. Excellent staff made for a delightful overnight stay. Delicious dinner
very quiet indeed. clearly recovering from a large wedding but this in no way diminished the charm of our welcome and service at dinner
A comfortable character hotel with excellent modern bedrooms. The staff are friendly and attentive, the service excellent. The food was magnificent and well priced.
The lounge area although a lovely period room was sparsely furnished but this is nit picking!
Meal in restaurant excellent Recommend steak!
Asked for quiet room got one with kitchen extractor fan outside. did stop at 10.30 after complained restarted 8am. Pity as lovely room but wouldn't market it as superior.
The retaurant food was simply excellent Staff well trained and freindly
I did not like having to leave..
The room was of a good size, slept like a log, so the bed was perfect. The food was good and plentiful. The service during the meal was very attentive.
I waited over 25 minutes trying to check out. After ringing the bell too many times to mention, no one came, so I left without seeing a soul. 2 weeks later I still haven't got my invoice. This made me late with my onwards journey.
quiet comfortable . Food excellent.
Great grand place Huge room Great bed Great bath Yum breakfast Helpful and friendly staff Beautiful gardens
Was a tad expensive
We stayed in a tower with all the mod cons. Our own private entrance up the tower stairs. The food was fabulous and the service amazing.
The meals were top class
Being offered the turret as a room when we had booked well in advance
The hotel is extremely nice in beautiful surroundings. The staff were all extremely pleasant and welcoming.
Rooms excellent. Nice quiet rooms Food in restaurant excellent Reception and breakfast staff excellent.
view from restaurant over Nestle factory not good. Suggest a barrier of trees to block view. Showers in rooms would not regulate properly, only hot to very hot!!!
We had our wedding reception there and it was awesome. Dalston hall made it brilliant. The rooms were lovely. Food excellent and staff helpful. It felt really special.
We had to leave eventually
Very comfy beds and lovely bathroom. Excellent breakfast.
Too dark and dingy inside although the dining room was light and airy. Gardens could do with an overhaul although there were some lovely trees.
The room and the breakfast was excellent
The whirlpool bath did not work and you were charge for having a bottle of your own wine (£20 corkage) in your room
Lovely building and lovely staff
Nothing really was happy with everything.
The setting of the venue in the location.
Very rude and unhelpful manager with lots of attitude which has clearly worked its way down through the staff. So sad and unnecessary. Food you expect to be pricey at a venue like this but lack of attention to detail and like it or lump it attitude made it overpriced for what you got and the manner in which you got it and what you got. Such a shame. Not a good way to finish what was a fabulous weeks holiday up to that point.

This is a guest post by Josh Davidson, founder and MD at Night Zookeeper. Their game, Night Zookeeper is a new online game that looks to inspire children to create, whilst being a free game with no advertising.
Night Zookeeper is a story about a young zookeeper exploring a strange Night Zoo and encountering magical animals. Eventually, the zookeeper must battle the evil Lord of Nulth, who has declared war on imagination. Children unlock pages of this story with their own creative illustrations and parents can reward them via email as they go. Night Zookeeper was developed with consultancy from Dubit.
In developing the game we drew inspiration from our in-school user testing with approximately 10,000 children, refining a series of prompts to get them excited and flexing their creative muscles. On top of this an additional 25,000 children in the UK, Canada, USA, Japan and South Africa have given feedback on the game after playing it.
Alongside the website, Night Zookeeper sends parents weekly, curriculum linked educational activities that children can complete away from their computer screens. Kids also receive stickers, a poster and a t-shirt in the post for a monthly subscription of £5 (US$7.99).
I'd like to use this post to talk you through three key parts of the game's development: how we decided on the correct business model, how and why to implement parental sharing and how to inspire creativity.

|My Mom and one of my best friends, Megan enjoy some cookies!
I had so much fun last night throwing a Christmas Cookie party for my friends and family! I was a baking fool in the kitchen for two days before, but still didn't have enough time to get everything ready! It was only my second time cooking or baking for a large crowd - so hopefully I'll get better in the future. I took a lot of great pictures to share with all of you and I can't wait to share all the recipes! My friends and family loved all of them!
I don't know about you guys, but I find baking cookies to be the hardest thing to bake. For some reason, my cakes and cupcakes always turn out really well, but with cookies it's always a toss up! Sometimes the bottoms burn or sometimes they're undercooked. This was definitely a challenge for me, but luckily I pulled through and through a great party! I just wish I could have taken more pictures, but I was too busy hosting and playing games with everybody! I did happen to get some great shots of some friends and family. You can see those shots below!
My Grandma's Melt-In-Your-Mouth Sugar Cookies
I remember my Great-Grandma, Grandma, and Mom always making a big batch of these delicious sugar cookies every year around the Holidays. The shortening and powdered sugar come together to make the most delicious sugar cookie I've ever had! My Mom even said that these were just as good as her Grandma's! I think this was definitely a Vegan success! The dough in this recipe doesn't work very well with making Christmas cookie cut-outs, but my other Grandma (pictured below...) has a great recipe for sugar cookie cut-outs that I will be sharing soon!
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup shortening
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup applesauce
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 4 cups all purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt

Arizona executes its oldest inmate for 1978 killing
By BOB CHRISTIE Associated Press October 9, 2013 2:10PM
FILE - This undated file photo provided by the Arizona Department of Corrections shows inmate Edward Harold Schad Jr. Schad, 71, the oldest person on Arizona's death row, is set to be executed Wednesday, Oct. 9, 2013, after the U.S. Supreme Court denied his final appeals Wednesday morning. Schad's lawyers earlier failed to get lower courts to block the execution. (AP Photo/Arizona Department of Corrections, File)
FLORENCE, Ariz. (AP) — Arizona on Wednesday executed the oldest person on its death row, nearly 35 years after he was charged with murdering a Bisbee man during a robbery.
The execution of 71-year-old Edward Harold Schad Jr. came about two hours after the U.S. Supreme Court denied his final appeals.
At about 10 a.m., the warden at the state prison in Florence read Schad's execution warrant and asked him if he had anything to say.
Schad responded: "Well, after 34 years I'm free to fly away home. Thank you, warden. Those are my last words."
He then lay quietly and looked at the ceiling as he was given a lethal dose of pentobarbital through IV needles in both arms. He was pronounced dead at 10:12 a.m.
Schad was sentenced to death for killing Lorimer "Leroy" Grove, whose body was found Aug. 9, 1978, in underbrush off the shoulder of U.S. 89 south of Prescott. A sash-like cord used to strangle Grove was still knotted around his neck.
Schad was arrested several weeks later in Utah while driving Grove's Cadillac. Authorities say he had driven the car across the country, used Grove's credit cards and forged a check from Grove's bank account.
At the time, Schad was on parole for second-degree murder in the 1968 strangulation death of a male sex partner in Utah. His lawyers in that case said the death was an accident.
Schad was convicted in Grove's death in 1979 and again in 1985 after the previous conviction was thrown out. The conviction was upheld by the state Supreme Court in 1989 but later became tied up in a series of federal court appeals.
The U.S. Supreme Court in June lifted a stay put in place by an appeals court, ordering the court to issue the execution authorization.
Schad always maintained he didn't kill Grove but told the state's clemency board at a hearing last week that he has accepted his fate.
A top Yavapai County prosecutor told the Arizona Board of Executive Clemency that despite Schad's denial, he was twice convicted by juries that rejected his assertion of innocence.
"He doesn't take any responsibility for what he did," chief deputy Dennis McGrane told the board. "Accidents two times, died of strangulation? I don't think so."
The board refused to recommend to Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer that Schad's sentenced be commuted to life in prison.
Schad's execution was Arizona's 35th since 1992. His death leaves 121 people on the death row in the state, including two women.
In his final hours, Schad thanked his lawyers and corrections officers who watched over him during the 35 days since his execution was scheduled, said Kelley Henry, a federal public defender who helped represent him.
"Ed Schad was a model inmate to the end," Henry said in a statement released by the defender's office in Phoenix.
