I just snail mailed you a thank you. Everything was delightful, nothing but compliments! When you said you would have everything under control, you certainly delivered. We are all most appreciative for your expertise in making this a fantastic, memorable event for our family & friends.
Have a blessed Thanksgiving.

Bob Cooper was amazing! I held a 160 person wedding reception here, and it was gorgeous. Bob was extremely helpful from start to finish. I am the first one in my family to have a large wedding, so I needed quite a bit of hand holding. Bob has 20+ years of experience, and it shows. He knows what works, and what doesn't, so if you listen to him, your wedding will be beautiful. The food was really good, and they even made a special plate for me (I have celiac) so I wouldn't get sick. I STRONGLY recommend this to any couple that is looking for a beautiful place to hold their reception.
Wedding: Recently Married Services Used: Ceremony & Reception Venue Reviewed On: 10/24/2014
Dear Bob,
I simply cannot believe that almost two weeks have passed since you hosted Greg and Maggie's wedding reception,m and I am just now thanking you. From my vantage point as mother-of-the-groom everything was beautiful and just as you promised. Thank you!
The room itself was elegant yet inviting. The lighting, the candles, the table decor, everything looked beautiful. The only think more lovely was the bride. The buffet was a feast for the eyes and the food was delicious. There was certainly something for everyone. My new daughter-in-law, Maggie, made many excellent choices in planning her wedding and reception. Choosing you and The Olde Towne Athletic Club to host her reception was certainly one of the most important decisions she made, and I have to say, it was an A+ decision. My son is one very lucky young man!
On several occasions, I watched you and Maggie work through the details of the reception,k and I was very pleased with the way you helped and advised her. Your attention to detail and your cooperative spirit were so reassuring to us. I truly appreciated your time, your knowledge, and professional experience. If anyone should ask me for a recommendation for an event planner and venue, you and the Olde Towne Athletic Club will be first on my list. I appreciated having the opportunity to have met you and to have thoroughly enjoyed the wonderful evening you provided for our family.
Dear Bob,
I honestly don't know how to thank you enough for everything you did to make our wedding perfect! The smallest details were attended to, and the grand vision was spectacular. Every decision you steered me toward ended up being right down to ditching my veil at the end of the night. All my friends and family had a wonderful time. The food was great (thanks again for the gluten-free plate!) and the evening flowed beautifully.
Thanks again from the bottom of my heart!

Loved this venue! The food and the facility were absolutely amazing. Everything exceeded our expectations and we could not have been happier. I will be recommending Olde Towne to all of my friends. Thank you for a lifetime of memories.!
Bob was WONDERFUL! My husband and I were on a tight budget and we were looking for smaller venues that included a lot. We found that at Olde Towne! Bob, the wedding coordinator was wonderful, calm, cool and collected. He made sure everything was perfect, and the staff was so sweet and personable. The cake, food, tables, linens and drinks were all included on site, making everything very easy for a busy bride in a doctorate program to plan. I highly recommend this venue to everyone! Thanks for everything Bob!!
Thank you Bob! Everything went well, and everyone had an awesome time. The staff was very friendly and great at what they did. We really enjoyed working with you, and have already highly recommended you and OTAC to others!

This venue was a wonderful place for both our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception. Bob Cooper was a delight to work with, and very accommodating. The ballroom is absolutely gorgeous and the Pub area is a great place for the before dinner cocktail hour. The food was outstanding and our friends couldn't say enough about how much they enjoyed everything. A big plus is the fact that Chef Scott also provides the wedding cake which was a highlight of the evening. The in-house florist, Chris Papadapolous did an amazing job with all the flowers for both the ceremony and reception. Olde Towne is a definite asset to our community! You can get luxury hotel service in a suburban setting (and no parking fees)!
Thank you for making our 60th wedding anniversary perfect in every way. All your help was so appreciated. The nice touches you added to our party were awesome. We all enjoyed the Olde Towne Club.

Olde Towne was an absolutely amazing venue for our wedding! The entire team was extremely helpful and willing to do everything we asked to make sure the day was perfect. All of our guests gave numerous compliments on the food, cake, service, and general beauty of the venue. I would strongly recommend Olde Towne for any event.
Thank you for putting on a wonderful wedding reception for Jessica and Brian. Everything was perfect. All of the guests were very impressed with the food, service, music, and decor. Jess and Brian enjoyed every minute. You were a pleasure to work with.
Thank you Bob! Everything was PERFECT! I honestly could not have asked for anything better. The food was awesome, the cake was exactly what I wanted, the bridal suite downstairs was perfect. I honestly can't say enough great things about it. You were awesome. Really, note doesn't do my experience justice! Thank you again, Nicole.
I just wanted to thank you for everything on Friday. The party was a hit and everything was great. I got lost of compliments on your venue as well as the food. Thanks again for everything, it was a perfect night.
I wanted to write and let you know that I had such a wonderful experience at Olde Towne for my daughter's wedding last weekend. From the moment we set up the meeting with Jenni she was so very professional and her attention to detail was the reason we picked the venue. It was such a fantastic weekend and Jenni was so much apart of what made it so special. She kept up with what we needed to do and when. She ran the event the day of and took care of everyone down to aspirin for a nervous bride! The food was fabulous and the cake exceptional. The service provided was so professional and made all the guests feel so special. I cannot say I could have had a better experience. I am recommending this place and Jenni to everyone I know. If and when I have a chance for another event I will be calling Jenni. I just wanted you to know what an outstanding employee she is and how much we leaned on her for all that we needed throughout the planning and the day of the wedding. So glad to know about your establishment. Sincerely, Karla.

We were so pleased that we chose this venue for my daughter's wedding. We were both (all) very happy with how everything turned out – the food, service, staff, etc. were great. What was so important to me was that Bob Cooper took care of everything and I didn't have to worry at all. We really enjoyed working with Bob, from beginning to end. (Wedding: 03/22/14)
OTAC and its staff led by Bob Cooper were spectacular. There is no question we would hold our wedding and reception there again. The rating system is NOT sufficient to accurately describe the value of our wedding and reception at OTAC. Bob was flexible and superb to work with. Professionalism is a hallmark for this venue.
The venue showed well and all of our guests remarked how impressed they were with the venue; even vendors that see a lot of weddings commented positively on working with Bob and the venue. We constantly heard "best wedding", "best wedding food", "really a nice place that decorates well", etc. All of those comments are accurate.
The food and service are second to none. We were overwhelmed at the tasting for food selection choices and taste. The passed hors d'oeuvres and reception buffet food was tremendous with quantities to our guests more than sufficient. The bar and bar service was all that we could have hoped for – we had some robust drinkers in our crowd and the bar stayed stocked, yet the staff managed the drinking professionally. Details such as the wedding and grooms cake were exceptional. One of the nicest touches is that the Chef will provide a replica, top cake layer for the bride and groom 51 weeks after the wedding date so the couple does not have to eat stale, frozen wedding cake on their first anniversary.
The ancillary facilities such as the large area for our daughter and her bridesmaids to get dressed in were nice. A very nice suite is adjacent to the ballroom for the Bride and daddy to spend a last moment before the event and for the new couple to have a moment to gather themselves between the wedding and reception. All of the nice touches are there to make a successful wedding.
We thought the cost was reasonable going into the wedding, but after the event we believe the value of what was delivered far exceeded our expectations. We have no reservations recommending OTAC to others.
Thank you for a great evening. Your staff was amazing and everyone had a great time. We had lost of comments on how great the food was. Chef Scott and his staff did an amazing job! Bob, thank you so much for making our big day memorable. Everything was even better than we expected! Thank you again.
The Hollenbecks just wanted you to know that as Caitlin and Aaron have almost made it to their first anniversary we have been looking back at the wedding day and you are one of the top highlights! You were a dream to work with and we felt like you honestly cared. We have actually missed our interaction with you!
We hope this email finds you doing well! Thanks again for being such a blessing to us!
P.S. Pam Short's daughter is getting married and having her reception there on June 7th. She took our advice and used you and DJ Tod!
We were more than pleased with everything Olde Towne has to offer. Many of our guests commented to us on how delicious the food was and how kind your staff was throughout the night of our wedding. It means a lot to us that your staff treated our guests with kindness and respect. Everything was better than we imagined it could be the day we got married. We barely had to think about a thing!
Each aspect of the club and the process of preparing for our reception there was excellent. Chef Scott and his staff did an amazing job with the food and the presentation of it. The "icing on the cake" (pun intended) was the work Chef Scott did on both of our cakes. He is a gem! Both cakes looked and tasted utterly delicious. I cannot thank him enough for making the groom's cake perfect.
We really felt and continue to feel that we got a lot for our money. Your prices are more than reasonable and the day was completely tailored to us.
Our interaction with you, Bob, was always so great. It was because of you that we decided on the club. Other places that we checked out seemed to only want our money, but you seemed to want to share in our celebration. We felt that you really cared about how our day went and that we were happy with the final result (and we were!). You always seemed so happy and excited for us and when we would stress over little details, your expertise helped us figure it out. You are a very kind and pleasant man.
Thank you for making our big day memorable, relaxed, everything we wanted!
Thank you. Everything went perfectly. We were extremely happy with every aspect of Olde Towne…including the perfect weather which I'm not really sure how you pulled off but greatly appreciated! We have had several people rave about the food and I have since recommended Olde Towne to several people at Kennestone.
We also really appreciate how quickly the table issue (6/9) was taken care of. That will forever be a joke in our household.
Thanks for helping make our day!
We cannot say enough about Bob and his staff for our daughter's wedding. Everything from the beginning to end went off like clockwork. The food was fantastic, the wedding cake was fabulous and made just as they wanted. The vendor list Bob gave us turned out to be the best…photographer, florist, and DJ…fantastic! This is our third daughter, all now married, and this was the easiest and smoothest wedding of all.
Olde Towne did an amazing job on my wedding day! Bob was so responsive all through the process, and I was very impressed with his patience, especially considering our head count changed almost up to the minute. The room is very spacious and the dance floor is huge. You don't realize how important that is until you go to a wedding with a small dance floor and can't even dance because it's so crowded.
The food was fabulous! Everything was delicious and fresh, and we got so many compliments on it. The cake was unbelievable (Canoli Cream is the best!). I normally don't like wedding cake, but ours was amazing. We had guests who have experienced the best of the best when it comes to food, and many said it was the best cake they had ever had. We ordered 2 small cakes as a thank you for some folks in our family who helped with the wedding, and I am ordering a bunch of cupcakes (same flavor) for my sister's baby shower this weekend! This cake will be a regular addition to our special events menu.
One thing we didn't want to do, and are so glad that Bob encouraged, was the whole alone time in the room before we were introduced as husband and wife. We were both pretty overwhelmed and ready to have a moment alone before we had to face everyone. DO NOT PASS THIS UP!
Bob worked really well with my DJ and florists to set up and make sure everything ran smoothly. He is incredible! Olde Towne was everything we wanted and more in a wedding venue. Thank you for your hard work!
The buffet table's presentation of the food was beautiful. The food was outstanding. Many guests commented on both the presentation and the taste! Scott did a fantastic job with the cake! It was just perfect!
The guests felt very cared for. The children's meals were delivered promptly and appreciated. Your staff was very gracious and polite.
Bob, your help with the planning and the actual night was most beneficial of all. From the minute we walked in, it was apparent that you were in charge, but that it was really the bride's night and she was your number one concern. Knowing that you were in control of the evening allowed Dave and I and Cori and Scotty to relax from the first minute and truly ENJOY the entire night. Not once did I feel like I had any responsibility. And I have to admit, I loved that! I really had a blast! As did Cori and Scotty and all of our guests! You do your job so well. I will recommend this hall to everyone who asks. It was outstanding.
Thank you very much.
Olde Towne provided me with the perfect wedding. EVERYONE continues to let me know how amazing the food was and how professional the service was. Bob was better than any wedding planner I could have hired. I would definitely recommend Olde Towne if you want a beautiful, fun, organized, and delicious wedding that gives you more than what you expect to pay for a wedding like this.
Scott Murtha delivered in a big way by carefully explaining to us during the tasting what he planned to do with each dish, made us feel comfortable by wanting to please, and doing it in a very unassuming way; and everything served on event night was exactly what we expected and was just as delicious as it was during the tasting. It was nice to see Scott in the ballroom on event night ensuring everything was going well, which also gave Jonathan a chance to express his appreciation in real time. Our guests could not stop talking about the quality of their meal – and some of those positive comments came from some very persnickety folks we know.
Patricia Peters was always monitoring everything, and she did a great job ensuring our needs were met after you left for the night. Even though we stayed a bit later to pack up our things, along with visiting with some of our guests who also stayed later to visit, we never felt rushed, and Patricia gave us assistance with whatever we needed. Plus, we saw a bit of her fun personality come through as well.
We also need to express our appreciation to your supporting cast – those folks whose names we don't know, but were always there to serve our food, clear our tables, scoop our ice cream, slice our pie, and serve our drinks – they all did it with a smile and what appeared to be a genuine desire to provide service. What really made the event fun for the kids was opening up the pool for the last hour – that was a big hit! Bob, we also appreciated your being receptive to a few special requests we made during the evening, which you handled quickly and with precision. We had a couple of friends in attendance who asked us for the contact info for our vendors, thus we anticipate we may be seeing you again in the future
Thank you again for making the process easy, straightforward, and hassle-free, which allowed Amy and I to relax and really enjoy the experience of watching our son have a wonderful time with his friends, and allowing us the chance to enjoy the night with our family and friends without having to worry about event details – you, Patricia, and Scott had it all covered.
Olde Towne Athletic Club made my daughter's wedding reception a truly memorable event. From our first meeting with Mr. Bob Cooper to the clean-up post reception every aspect of the event was handled with exceptional professionalism. Their quote for our 200+ guests was competitive while offering value for the menu created for the sit-down buffet. Our guests raved about the food and its presentation. All of our requests for the bride's cake which was exquisite to the groom's "cat" cake were beautifully presented. All of this would not have been possible without the planning and timing of the event provided by Mr. Bob Cooper. All parts of the reception were carried out on a timely basis and ran smoothly with no "rough spots" at any point during the reception. He is the consummate perfectionist and will make your event very special from beginning to end.
From the very beginning of the planning process, Bob Cooper was a fantastic resource. He was always very accommodating, responsive, patient in answering all of our questions/concerns, and he provided great suggestions for various elements and vendors we had to consider along the way. On the day of the wedding, he and his staff continued to reassure us of something that we had been told along the way…that every detail would be put in place as we had planned, and that we didn't need to worry about anything other than enjoying our special day with friends and family.
The food was EXCELLENT (we had many guests telling us how wonderful it was), and the cake was delicious! Cocktail hour in the Pub with a photo slideshow was also very cool, and the guests loved it!
All in all, we know we made the best decision in having our wedding at Olde Towne, and we wouldn't change a thing about it. We wholeheartedly recommend the venue to anyone looking for a wedding or event venue…you will be taken care of with great service from beginning to end, and you will not be disappointed!!
Thank you again, Bob, Patty, Chef Scott, and the whole OTAC crew for an amazing wedding!

Man wanted for attempted murder shot, killed by fugitive task force in Flagler County
Updated On: Aug 13 2014 08:58:15 PM EDT
A fugitive wanted by the Bunnell Police Department was shot and killed by a U.S. Marshal's Service task force Wednesday morning, according to the Flagler County Sheriff's Office.
The man, identified as 24-year-old Corey Tanner, was shot as an arrest warrant was being served at a home on Espanola Road. No law enforcement officers were injured.
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement was called to investigate the shooting. It has not released any information on whether Tanner was armed, who fired the shots or how many rounds were fired.
Family members said Tanner had mental issues and was on medication, but he didn't deserve to die.
"They didn't give him a chance," said Tanner's mother, Brenda Williams. "He had problems because he was bi-polar and had other mental problems, but most everybody knew that."
The U.S. Marshal's Service issued a statement saying Tanner was alone when the shooting occurred, but Tanner's aunt told News4Jax that children were inside the home.
"They feel they were doing their job, and we feel they couldn't have done it a better way," Gloria Harris said.
Florida Department of Corrections records show Tanner has a long criminal history, including convictions in 2007 for aggravated battery, resisting arrest with violence and cocaine possession, and in 2010 for manufacturing and possession of a controlled substance.
News4Jax is in Flagler County learning more about Tanner and the incident. This article will be updated as more information becomes available, with live reports on newscasts beginning at 5 p.m.

Technically, yes. However, if the boat was insured for salvage, it wouldn't have been sitting there two years. If the owner doesn't have the money to float it or simply abandons it, it becomes our (the States) problem. People walk away from boats at my Marina all the time. If the boat doesn't sell at lien sale, the State pays to haul it away and crush it. The Harbor master is wiz at securing state funds. Grants, redevelopment and beautification funds. I think abandoned boats should be the cost of doing business for the marina. This would motivate the marina to be more selective about who they rent to, and go after the owner (if they have any assets). However, the State pays like a slot machine, so why bother!
I've found things in the nautical world to be much looser than I expected. For example, I assumed the Nav Aids at my marina had to be maintained by law. To my surprise, the Coast Guard informed me I was not correct.
No regulations for marker lights?
To the extent that the law regarding liability is not vigorously and quickly enforced, problems such as your wreck will persist unless they pose an immediate hazard to navigation. Where it is easier to get money out of one or another state or federal agency to handle a problem than to prosecute the responsible party, municipalities will do so and culprits will walk away fairly confident they will suffer no consequences. Frankly, I think all boats should be registered, just as are automobiles, to go upon the water and that registration should be conditioned upon evidence of, at least, liability insurance. (While liability insurances is not inexpensive, it would be much more affordable if everyone were required to purchase it just as the near universal need for real estate title insurance has made title policies affordable.) Such a requirement would cut down on incidents of near derelict boats languishing in marinas and abandoned wrecks such as you describe.
N'any case, hopefully your wreck will be removed sooner or later and before it does pose a more serious hazard, eh?
"It is not so much for its beauty that the sea makes a claim upon men's hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air, that emanation from the waves, that so wonderfully renews a weary spirit."

Last spring, on an unusually cold April day, my friend Walter and I are at Alley Pond Park to see migrating birds. At a pond we see a few male red-winged blackbirds with their bright red epaulets, some Canada geese and robins. Homies. It becomes apparent that if we are going to see migrating spring birds that we are going to have to go off the beaten path. Going through a bush filled area we pass some trees that are bare and corkscrew-shaped with deep grooves in the bark. If they could talk, what tales would they tell about the snows of winter?
The League of Women Voters of Nassau County, a non-partisan organization, which neither supports nor opposes any candidate or political party, is concerned about the County Legislature's haste in re-drawing the legislative district lines. In doing this, the Legislature is not adhering to its own County Charter, subsection 113, which requires an advisory redistricting commission to be established to reapportion the county legislative districts based on the federal census.
Last week I did research on the Island of Saint Lucia and the Smuggler's Cove hotel at which we were staying. Here is my report after our six days on the island.
Twenty-eight percent of children across the United States refuse to go to school at some time during their school years. In a recent survey of new applications at North Shore Child and Family Guidance Center, we found increasing numbers of children who refused to go to school. This was further validated at a meeting that the Guidance Center hosted for counselors, social workers and psychologists from public and private schools throughout Nassau County.
This is the first part of a two-part experiment.
I am going away on a vacation to Saint Lucia; I have done all the research and reading on this lush, tropical island in the West Indies. The brochures picture a romantic escape with snorkeling, windsurfing, sailing, kayaking, tennis, a squash court, a spa, a swim-up bar, banana boat rides, aerobics, beach volleyball and cooking classes.
I realize that at my age (over 60) I should be reading great books and filling my off hours with intellectual and enlightening methods of erudition.
However, at the end of the day I find myself yearning for relaxing and mindless activities. During my lifetime I have studied many of the great Shakespeare plays, read James Joyce's Ulysses, studied U.S. and world history, and written over 600 essays. Evening is the time to get on the couch, slow down and unwind.
It is with sincere gratitude that I recognize the tireless efforts of Fresh Air Fund volunteers in Nassau County as the country celebrates National Volunteer Week. Their commitment to helping New York City children is exemplary for all community members and truly embodies the spirit of the 2011 National Volunteer Week theme, "Celebrating People in Action."
Juiced' by Florida Wetlands' Big Birds
On a cool afternoon this past January I went birding with my wife and two close friends. We start in the heart of a Sarasota industrial park exploring a waterway, which attracts big birds. On one shore an anhinga, partially in shadow, has its black wings outstretched to dry, prominently displaying a white lined pattern on its back. Nicknamed the "water turkey," the anhinga takes fish underwater. Their long straight necks, long bills, long straight-edged tails and silvery, white-lined back and wing pattern make anhingas striking. This lone bird's brown hue suggests that it is probably immature. The anhinga's dark mustard colored, webbed feet look like they are made from sturdy, Army-Navy store canvas. I'm "juiced," as I rarely see an anhinga.
Two winter weary Jericho couples, the Greenes and the Greenbergs, arrive at JFK airport for a trip to the Dominican Republic. Punta Cana on the eastern end of the island of Hispaniola is the final destination. Paradisus Palma Real Resort is the name of the hotel. The plan is called A.I.P. or all-inclusive plan.
Everything was paid for up front. Not once did we reach into our pockets to pay for a meal. We ate, thanked the waiters and left. No figuring out the tip or the bill. It was a strange sensation for Long Islanders. At a bar the bartender plunked down an entire bottle of Absolut vodka and told us to add as much to the drink as we desired. It reminded me of the bar scenes in western movies when the hero is presented with a whiskey bottle and a shot glass.
(Editor's Note: Stanley Greenberg is on vacation this week. This week's column is an encore presentation of a piece originally published on March 11, 2005.)
While I was walking on the treadmill at the clubhouse of the condominium where I live, I started speaking to a fellow condo resident. Having a conversation while you are walking on the machine is a great boon, because it takes your mind off the boring step after step drudgery.

Three franchisees overcome the odds
Brands in the food services sector look to go deeper into India
Despite volatile markets, franchising in equity trading and broking services has immense potential, especially in smaller towns and cities
The report estimates that over 43000 franchisee establishments (valued at $36 billion) may be required by 2017.
Franchising in the private education sector is a good business opportunity for entrepreneurs to capitalize on
Sanjeev Vashishta, of SRL Diagnostics says that there is place for everybody as the market is very nascent in terms of getting organized. Only 10 percent of the market is currently tapped by diagnostics companies
Starting a franchise in the business of beauty is a good bet for entrepreneurs
Innovations provide the edge to franchising taking it way ahead of its traditional meaning
Collaborating with the right brands and preparing your risk appetite will determine your success if you are planning to open a quick service restaurant franchise
Social media platforms can aid franchising in a big way. Here are some lessons shared by franchisors.

Guestbook comments from the owner
Hello Elizabeth and Happy New Year!!
We had a wonderful time!
Your home was beautiful and was very accommodating for my parents. We had a wonderful time. I was hoping my mom would have been strong enough to walk... but we rented a wheelchair and that worked out well. She got a lot of special attention at the parks and they were so accommodating. She enjoyed every minute - as it should be. I wish we would have had more time there but every day was action packed at the parks. We really just came home to sleep. I didn't even swim until the morning we left just to say I did it. Thank you for all of your help and hospitality. It was a vacation to remember! I hope we will have a chance to return again.

The Main's SAQ is moving
The SAQ at 3565 St-Laurent below Prince Arthur is moving to the long-empty old stone bank building at the corner of St-Laurent and Pins. Closing March 27th, re-opening April 19th. Great to see that building will finally be put to use, and it'll be a huge outlet.
re: lagatta
They've already put large glass windows along the St-Laurent side where it was boarded up, in the decorative archways (for lack of better description). So it will be nicely restored and much sunnier than most outlets by the look of it. I'd also imagine a building that size has a second floor and/or basement, or else a very high ceiling (maybe open concept 2nd floor). I think they've got a very nice outlet in the works (dare I say, a cathedral of booze, haha).
re: kpaxonite
Are they opening or expanding one in the area?
re: Shattered
What he told me was that they were simply closing.... however there had been numerous appeals to keep the Forum location open (one of the largest) but the rent is extremely high.
Chances are if both close nothing with open... I remember a few years back when the on on masioneuve and metcalfe closed (a very large one) and the one on peel and st cath moved...and nothing opened to take care of the area between stanley and eaton center.
re: Shattered
It's all here: http://www.montrealgazette.com/closin...
re: kpaxonite
Well, at least Westmount will still have at least one SAQ. Parc-Ex has no more, since the closing of the SAQ next to Loblaws, and the earlier closing of the long-standing one on Jean-Talon (corner Stuart?). People there have to travel to Rockland, Jean-Talon Market, Petite-Italie or Jarry/Lajeunesse. And many people in that area don't have cars.
The outlet next to the Loblaws was far too big for needs, but very handy for people shopping for food next door.
Jean-Talon Market
7075 Avenue Casgrain, Montreal, QC H2S, CA
re: lagatta
+ great selection
+ beautiful building
+ underground free and easy parking.
Oh, how I miss that SAQ...
re: sweettoothMTL
Yes, if that SAQ was too big for local needs (and you are right, including people driving to the Loblaws) they should have kept part of the space and used the rest for other food-centric businesses, complementary to the Loblaws and the SAQ. That SAQ had products not even found at Beaubien Sélection, to say nothing of the small Petite-Italie and JTM SAQs.
Now it houses throwaway-cheap Joe Fresh clothes.
Oana, on the other hand I'm glad that building on the Main will be safeguarded and used.
Glanced inside the main corner door windows today and realized just how huge the floor space is: 3 to 4 times what they have now. Offhand, I'd say comparable with the SAQ on Maisonneuve near City Councillors. That's not including another section behind a retaining wall (but with an open spot connecting it to the larger area), which you can see through a side doorway that opens onto St-Laurent (near the south end of the building). That alone is at least as big as the current store. It's gonna be impressive when it opens.
re: Daiya
Well, they have put up signs that can be seen down both streets. I don't think they're too bad, they could've put some horrible backlit signs facing out from the building.
As you say, they're right on schedule, and the floor and shelving space look at least 3, maybe 4 times the size of the current one with considerably more cashes as well. Can't wait!
re: Shattered
Not really, it is very much part of the Plateau - that is the area the Michel Tremblay's books about the neighbourhood long before it became trendy were set. But it is a very different part of the district, and not so very far away from Mordechai Richler's books about similar times, as well as to Little Portugal.
I haven't been down to the area of the new one recently, but certainly will soon, Do they have any speciality products not found elsewhere?
re: lagatta
michel tremblay, who dat
re: lagatta
Well, it's too far for anyone on St Denis, definitely anywhere along the Main, and anywhere near a metro. Therefore, doesn't count in my books :) And I say that as someone who used to have that as my local SAQ - I have no prob admitting I lived on the fringe of the Plateau (& that's why I moved, walking 20 mins in winter just to hit the metro sucks!)

Garbage Study Has Options, Few Recommendations
The problematic garbage study for La Crosse county is part of public record now. And nowhere does the study recommend starting up a government-run garbage service. The study is the one that is at the root of the ethics allegations against La Crosse mayor Matt Harter. He's accused of advocating against a study for the harm it could cause his family's garbage business. But the waste evaluation merely points out some shortcomings in the current systems. Like in recycling. County sustainability guy, Nick Nichols says La Crosse and Onalaska are clearly behind in that regard, both cities having half the recycling rate of other, similar communities studied. He says the study clearly shows there's ways to greatly increase recycling rate.
City Council Sees the Light on LEDs
The La Crosse city council's budget meeting has been shaving pennies for weeks. But a surprise request from Rotary Lights volunteers has the council ready to spend 19 thousand dollars for new Christmas lights. The council is all in so far on a request from Rotary Lights for matching grant money so the group can buy new LED lights. Among the city council members persuaded by the group's good work in raising money and food for local pantries, Dick Swantz. But he's also in to the potential energy savings. Says fossil fuels are the source of many problems and little things like adding LED's to the Rotary Lights could be part of the solutions. The county of La Crosse has also pledged 19 thousand dollars to the LED light cause.
Bluff Park and Road Both Move Forward in Front of Council
The La Crosse city council has its eyes turned towards the bluff this week. The council has approved the creation of a committee to sit down with surrounding towns and hash out some kind of agreement about repairing Bliss Road. The road to Grandad Bluff has been washed out for weeks. The council has also agreed to accept a DNR grant to help fund a spendy reconstruction of the park at the top of the bluff. the timing of the decisions leading to the possibility that Grandad Bluff Park might be done right about the same time the only city road to the park is back in service.
Crouton Factory Getting New Owner?
The future of La Crosse's downtown crouton factory is unclear, now that a big bread company is buying some bakery holdings from Sara Lee.
The deal between Sara Lee and Grupo Bimbo, worth nearly a billion dollars, was announced yesterday. Sara Lee is the latest owner of the bakery that has operated on Cass Street for decades. Tim Kabat of Downtown Mainstreet Incorporated is happy to have the factory in the central city, although its location next to Cameron Park may not please everyone.
Grupo Bimbo is based in Mexico, and already makes familiar American products such as Thomas's English Muffins. Bimbo reportedly is interested in expanding its U-S operations.
Gas From Garbage Heading to Medical Clinic
Right about this time next year, garbage gas will be keeping it warm at a local medical clinic. Approvals are in place for a three million dollar gas pipeline from the La Crosse county landfill. La Crosse county sustainability coordinator, Nick Nichols says the methane gas will get pumped underground to the Gundersen Lutheran clinic in Onalaska. The clinic will use the gas for electricity and heating. Marks the first time the methane that the landfill produces has been used for anything productive. It's two miles of six-inch gas pipeline, buried five feet down.

Tower Stories: An Oral History of 9/11 (Hardcover)
Not currently in the store – Usually ships in 1-5 days
Damon DiMarco's Tower Stories: An Oral History of 9/11 eternally preserves a monumental tragedy in American history through the voices of the people who were in Lower Manhattan and elsewhere in New York City on that fateful day.
The stories DiMarco has collected come from a diverse group of human beings: individuals who managed to escape from the Towers; the bereaved of 9/11; the policemen, firemen, paramedics, reporters, and volunteers who risked their lives to help others; eyewitnesses who stood in shock on the streets below the Towers; WTC structural engineers, political experts, political dissidents, small business owners, and, of course, children whose lives will be forever impacted by the horror and chaos they witnessed.
In the tradition of Studs Terkel, DiMarco's moving oral history chronicles the stories of everyone from the small group of people who miraculously made it safely down from the 89th floor of Tower 1 to the New York Times reporter trying desperately to fight her way through the fleeing crowds into Lower Manhattan, to the paramedic who set up a triage area 200 yards from the base of the Towers before they collapsed to the ordinary citizens of New York City who tried to get on with their lives in the days following the tragic event.
This expanded second edition of DiMarco's literary time capsule includes follow-up interviews that track contributors' lives in the years since 9/11, as well as dozens of never-before-published photographs.
About the Author
Damon DiMarco's oral histories include Heart of War: Soldiers' Voices from the Front Lines of Iraq, a collection of first person narratives from U.S. veterans of the War in Iraq. DiMarco also collaborates on biographies, having penned Out of Bounds with Roy Simmons, the first former NFL player to publicly announce that he is HIV positive; and The Actor's Art & Craft with William Esper, an exploration and elaboration on the famous acting techniques pioneered by legendary acting teacher Sanford Meisner (forthcoming from Random House in fall of 2007). DiMarco currently teaches in the theatre arts department of Drew University. He lives in New York City.
Thomas Kean is the chairman of the 9/11 Commission.

Gay Couple's Picture Misused in Anti-Gay Political Attack Ad; Legal Action Possibleby Free Britney at . Comments
Brian Edwards and Tom Privitere, a New Jersey couple married in 2010, were stunned - and irate - to find themselves on an anti-gay political ad campaign.
The photo of the two men had been posted innocuously on Edwards' personal blog and was originally set against the backdrop of the N.Y. City skyline.
A doctored version shows the gay couple standing in a Colorado setting and was used in a political ad to attack a Republican who supported civil unions:
The tagline for the attack ad, which was sponsored by Public Advocate of the United States, was: "State Sen. Jean White's Idea of 'Family Values?'"
White later lost the primary.
Now, with the help of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), the duo and photographer Kristina Hill are all threatening to sue the organization behind the ad and its president, Eugene Delgaudio, if they do not stop using the photo.
"Our initial reaction was complete shock," said Privitere, 37, who lives with Edwards in Montclair, N.J. The couple has been together for 12 years."We were heartbroken to see that our picture that was taken to represent love and family, and our values, and to share with other LGBT couples, was used for complete opposite purposes to induce fear and spread hate and bigotry," he said.
Public Advocate, based in Falls Church, Va., is on the SPLC's 2011 hate group list. It never had permission to use the photo, unsurprisingly.
Delgaudio, who is head of the board of supervisors for Loudon County in Virginia, told ABC News that he has not yet received SPLC's letter.
He is "looking into the matter" and searching whether or not we have the photo," he said. "I have not commented on this ever and I have no statements on it ... Someone could do this without my permission, but I am working on it."
WHOOHOO!!!! I have been waiting for this for so long!! I am tlrhiled that you have the film, but alas while I will see it probably about 10 times at your theater Opening night is for IMAX!!! You will see me the next day over and over and over LOL!! I am so happy about Harry and that YOU ARE THE BEST cinema around !!
magnoskunk- your name suits you perfectly; a huge horrible smelling animal. Now crawl back in the ground like a good boy & stop trying to be a human being - you're not good @ it.
@???? Ignorance is not bliss. If being the world ambassador on repect means showing everyone ignorance is not the way...then sign me up.
Stop with the hate and ignorance! Everyone is entitled to live their life however they choose. That means gay or straight! Im so sick of all these haters. Whatever your beliefs we should always be repectful to one another. Yes we have a right of freedom of speech. But we do out have the right to be bullies. Worry about living your own life. You only live once. It all begins and ends with the word respect!
@bitches Amen, preach!!!!! @magnoskunk - pic's in the media b/c Delgaudio took it from their page for his smear campaign. They didn't want publicity. Headline's Delgaudio's fault. Blame him; it's his bulls***.
You bitches who are preachin God and talking shit toward other sure need to hit church more and read the bible more often.
@magnoskunk if the creep didn't steal the photo off of this guy's photo, there'd be no article. Slanted? Wtf? The headline's 'gay couple's picture misused in political attack ad, legal action possible'. The pic isn't public domain, dumbo- it was on their page-not sharing it with the world you dumbf***. This stupid gop did a smear campaign & misrep'd a pic that wasn't his 2 use. & delgaudio f*** says he doesn't know wtf happened? He's an idiot, just like you. Dumb****s.
this is some filthy shit.
There is alot of young people on here.I am starting to feel this Hollywood Gossip site is not for adults.

Have you ever dreamed about owning your own home? Do you have a steady income but have been turned down from banks and other financial institutions? Are you trying to provide a descent place to live but can't seem to catch a break? Why not apply for a Habitat home...... Habitat for Humanity of Greater Bangor is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry. HFHGB seeks to eliminate poverty housing, and to make decent shelter a matter of conscience and action. HFHGB invites people of all backgrounds, races and religions to build houses together in partnership with families in need.
