Ok, on to the intro of the cast of (2) characters.
I'm Yuki(21), and here's a photo of me on my first ever trip to WDW in 2006.
It was a complete dream come true for me. My parents saved up for 6 years so that my siblings and I could spend a week at WDW. We must've been the luckiest kids in the world because we had no parents on this trip. Just me at 17, and my siblings at 14 and 13 yrs old. They deemed me as responsible enough :cheer2:
On that trip, I didn't know much about WDW at all. We went on a package that also included admission to SeaWorld, JFK Space Centre, and Universal Studios. We stayed offsite and there were shuttle busses that took us to the parks in WDW. We had no idea what to expect at Disney, but still had an AMAZING TIME, despite little to no planning (we planned the order of the parks).
This is the three of us at Epcot
And this is us at the then, MGM Studios
We LOVE funny posing
My sister's such a character, I love her
After that trip, I came home and went WDW crazy. With no plans to return soon, I found websites like mouse savers and the Dis and discovered that I had missed SO MUCH:eek: Ofcourse, going to these sites just made me want to go back MORE, of course. So I started looking at prices and started to get a real sense of how much a WDW vacation would cost. My parents paid for our first trip ever of course, but I was determined to pay my own way this time.
So after a lot of research (which I blogged on my livejournal about :rolleyes1), the idea of returning in 2010 seemed more and more plausible. Which leads us to our second character, my DBF.
This is DBF, Andrew (21). He'll be turning 22 when we're at Disney. And yes, I planned it that way.
That's him and his neice in Taiwan. His hair's longer now too.
So, why was 2010 such a great year to return? Well, Andrew graduates this June, and I was going to graduate this August, but decided to spend an extra year getting a minor. It'll also be our 3rd yr anniversary (date-versary?), and 3's my favourite number. So it worked out pretty well.
I started planning all of this in 2008, so I would have 2 years to save up, which was just about right.
I already have rooms booked (with CAA discount), flights arranged, and tickets bought!
We will be at Pop Century from Aug.17-Aug.24, 2010. So come along on my countdown to my favourite place in the world!:cheer2:
Fresh Out of University and Onwards to Disney!!!An August PTR!!!(Updated 8/26)
Chapter 2. More good stuff about us
Ok, now that I have those initial intro's out of the way, I can tell you guys more about us.
I'm a 4th year University of Waterloo student in the Social Development Studies program. Currently, I'm working on getting a minor in Psychology and will be applying to get into the Bachelor of Social Work program next fall.
This is my 2nd trip to the World. I've always loved all things Disney, my favourite movie being Aladdin and my favourite princess is Snow White (though I don't really know why....):confused3 I've always dreamed of going to Disney, so when I went in 2006, I literally felt like, a kid at Disney World!:rotfl: There's just no other way to put it!
One of my favourite rides......is the Haunted Mansion. I'm actually not a big fan of Soarin'. I didn't quite get the appeal. I also loved Buzz Lightyear and the TTA. I just realized, I listed mostly MK rides!
My favourite characters are Tink, Stitch, Wall-E, Dug, and Rhino.
I'm also HUUUGE geek. Yes, I know the DIS is FULL of Disney geeks. But I'm a geek of many other things.
Here's a photo to give you a clue.
Still don't know it yet? Here's another one.
Give up yet? I'm sure some of you will get it.
Yes, I'm an anime/sci-fi/comic/gaming dress-up-to-go-to-conventions geek.
And I LOVE it :lovestruc
One of my main hobbies is making costumes for myself and dressing up in public. I'm a total attention ***** and LOVE wearing a costume out to the mall or just to go downtown. Of course, I usually choose the costumes that don't have wig. Those are reserved for conventions
And luckily for me, DBF is also such a geek and dresses up as well (although a little more relunctantly), but he does it for me.
Here's a photo of us at the last summer convention, as characters from the game, Team Fortress 2
Ok, let me tell you a little more about Andrew. He's a computer software engineer, and will be graduating from the University of Queens. This is also his 2nd trip to the World. His first trip was when he was 6 or 7, so he doesn't remember much of what happened.
Oddly though, he remembers Honey! I shrunk the audience! quite well. He's not big on Disney. He certainly enjoys the movies and LOVED Wall-E (not as much as me though!). But he's looking forward to see me GIDDY WITH HAPPINESS :yay: when I get off that plane at MCO.
He's the best DBF ever and I really think he's the one! Cross your fingers ladies!:wizard: He only really agreed to this trip because he knows how happy it'll make me. :cloud9: He's a keeper, amirite?
We love taking silly photos. Here are some.
Here's a nice one to end this post.
He's my prince charming and I'm so happy I found him :lovestruc
Hi Yuki! I saw your post on Jordan's report that you had a pre-trip started so I came over to say hello. How nice that your parents sent you and your siblings to Disney - by yourself!! You guys must have had an awesome time!
I, like you, didn't understand the "art" of doing Disney until I started reading the Dis boards.
Love the photos - especially the last one - you two look so happy!
Can't wait to hear about all of your plans!
Wow Congrats on the graduating from collage-way to go
and isn't fun to plan your trip--half the fun to me-not so much to DH(my DBF)
he just says 'yes dear' sigh's and goes on.
looking forward to the rest
Hey there! Popped over from Jordans thread! I look forward to following along!
I'm thinking of starting my PTR soon, but hesitant to as my trip isn't till December 2011 :p
I'm CRAZY about planning! I've already read the Unnofficial Guide cover to cover. I also read ALL the menus over at Allears. Planning just gives me such a rush!
Chapter 3. My itinerary and touring plans!
So, since the official park hours came out back in February, I've had my finalized itinerary.
I bought the Unofficial Guide and LOVED it.
Here's my copy.
And here's how worn out it is. I'm sure it'll be in worse conditions after WDW.
So, because I actually bought the book and read it like a bible, I'm gonna take a crack at their park touring plans. I've decided to follow their recommended touring plan and pretty much follow it to the T.
The last time I was at WDW, I didn't have to wait all that long for the rides anyways since it was August, so I don't feel like I have much to lose to go with their plans. If it works, then it gives me more time! If it doesn't, I've planned to be in the parks for their evening EMH's, so I'll have extra time if needed.
I bought a little notebook to write all my plans in, including flight numbers, resort reservation numbers, ADRs, touring plans, e-mails of my family and friends, mailing addresses for postcards, and even a spot to write in notes for my TR!
Here it is. If you haven't figured it out yet, my favourite colour is green.
I added on the stickers myself. Found a pack of 100 of the Fab Five stickers for $1 at a local craft store! :cool1:
So, what are my plans? I have a total of 8 days, 7 nights, and 6 MYW base tickets.
Day 1-August 17
-arrive at MCO around 2:30pm
-since Epcot is the first WDW park I ever entered, I'm going to make it a tradition to always visit it first on future trips
-head to Epcot first thing after checking in and have lunch/dinner at Sunshine Seasons
-try out Sum of All Thrills and tour Innoventions East and West
-head to DTD before Illuminations and shop a bit before heading back to the POP
Day 2-August 18
-get up around 10am
-pick up a Birthday button because it's Andrew's birthday!
-DTD for lunch at Earl of Sandwich (I'm looking forward to trying the Jerk chicken)
-resort hop to POFQ, PORS, Beach Club, and Boardwalk
-have a celebratory birthday dessert at Beaches and Cream
-get a birthday cupcake at Boardwalk Bakery
-head to HS and line up for second showing of Fantasmic!
Day 3-August 19
-get to Epcot for rope drop and follow UG's one-day touring plan (when I write my TR, I'll be reviewing their touring plans to see how well it worked out for me)
-when I get to WS, do Kim Possible WS Adventure and tour the countries that way
-watch Illuminations from Japan
-since this night has magic hours, I can take my time with the WS shops and try to get on the FW rides some more
Day 4-August 20
-get to MK for rope drop and follow UG's touring plans
-eat a Dole Whip in Adventureland
-have a Turkey leg for lunch!
-MK has magic hours this evening, so I might actually take a break back to POP if it gets too hot and come back later in the evening
Day 5-August 21
-wake up around 10am for more resort hopping!
-tour the Grand Floridian, the Poly, and WL
-lunch at Whispering Canyon Cafe
-I haven't planned anything specific for the evening yet
-but I've written down a list of stuff we can choose from:
-Chip and Dale's campfire
-ESPN Club at Boardwalk (none of us are sport fans, but we love the grub at sports bars)
-Downtown Disney
Day 6-August 22
-get to AK for morning magic hours
-follow the UG's guide (my problem for this touring plan, is that some of the rides on the touring plan won't be open during morning EMH. I might actually just ditch the plan for AK, since we'll have more than enough time there anyways)
-order Picnic in the Park (I've been dying to try this since it came out. Andrew and I have already chosen what we want to order!)
-anniversary celebration dinner at Boma :lovestruc
Day 7-August 23
-get to HS for rope drop and follow UG's touring plan
-even though Fantasmic is showing tonight, I don't feel a need to watch it twice. I'm hoping I'll be able to get on some more rides while people line up for F! :thumbsup2
Day 8-August 24
-departure day :guilty: Trip hasn't even started and I'm already sad to leave
-have brunch in POP's food court
-our flight is at 2:45pm, so ME should be picking us up around 11:30
You two are so cute together! Can't wait to read all about your upcoming plans!! :goodvibes
Just FYI you should be able to get a B-day button at check in. We did for myself and my kids. :)
Thanks for joining in!
Have it noted on your reservation. Hopefully when you check in they'll see it and give you the button. If you and they forget you can always go to the desk later and get one. Enjoy and have fun!
I'm reading the UG now in anticipation of our 2011 trip. I think I'll pick up the 2011 UG edition when it comes out toward the end of the year. I may get the Passporter guide book instead. Haven't decided for sure though.
Anywho. Earl of Sandwich has delish sandwiches. We ate there in 2008 and we will def be eating there again in 2011.
Yeah, I hear great things about EoS. I didn't get to go to DtD on my last trip, so I'm really looking forward to it this time
We-my DD and I debated over buying the unofficial guide verses the unofficial Guide Color Companion to WDW-and in the end we went with the color companion-it has tons of pics including rides,rooms etc and it even has a bit of humor in it. I will be going to the library and borrowing the regular unofficial guide.
love you planner--i just got a small planner that will easily fit in my park bag
and plan to decorate it.
Your plans sound great--by all means get andrew a birthday button and make sure he wears it!!!
Great thinking on your part about planning a "down" day--
You have NO IDEA how long it took me to choose a notebook! I went to dollar stores EVERYWHERE to find something that was light, portable, well space, and cute(yes, that was important) to use as my travel notebook. It came down to this and a pink one with a heart in it. Dollarama has great notebooks to choose from.
Oh, he BETTER be wearing it! We'll also be wearing anniversary buttons too, for our Boma dinner ;)
Ya, it was important for me to have a free day in there, since I was planning to go commando on the park days. I knew Andrew wouldn't have liked having to wake up at 6-7am four mornings in a row! :rotfl:
Thanks for coming along! :hug:

Ahh, you miss the point. The vast majority do not need to understand the code.
Open source's strength is not that everyone has to read/understand the code -- it is that everyone can. It takes only one person to find an issue, then others can see for themselves and confirm/fix. If the vendor not fixing it fast enough, a fork or patch can be done without vendor's approval. On the other hand when Apple logged your location, it was only found by accident because they left data laying around. Then you had to wait for Apple to fix it, which, for all we know, they did by not leaving the data easily findable.
Of course that is not perfect and plenty of bugs and issues do not get found quickly in Open Source - but if it is popular enough, it is much harder to be evil on purpose and hide it.
Oh, it's open source so it's all good?
Open source is so fast to get a pass on being Evil(tm) around here. More people who own an Android phone have the skills to rebuild an engine than to properly interpret the source code of their phone. Open source only matters if you have the skills to understand the code. The vast majority of people running CyanogenMod don't have this skill set.

EDMONTON - Philippa Thomas will be out of commission for at least two days after working up the energy to speak at Alberta's 10th annual Farm Workers Day for a few hours Wednesday.
Thomas suffers from a rare nerve condition that she says developed after she cut her thumb working as a barn manager at a horse stable north of Cochrane in 2006. Thomas said the cut became infected, and manifested in a flesh-eating disease that was eventually controlled, but resulted in complex regional pain syndrome in her right arm. The condition has severely limited her, with pain levels so high Thomas said it induces uncontrollable vomiting episodes.
"It's known as the highest pain known to man, a.k.a. the suicide disease," Thomas said. "There's no cure. It only gets worse. I never thought the pain could get worse than what it was, but it did."
As a farm worker, Thomas wasn't covered under workers' compensation, even though her injury resulted in a severe disability that will prevent her from working for the rest of her life. That's because — unlike workers in most sectors in Alberta — the agricultural industry is not required to have coverage for most of its employees. In addition, Alberta's Occupational Health and Safety Act does not apply to farms. (Alberta is the only province with OHS exemptions.)
Thomas has joined with the Farmworkers Union of Alberta to advocate for farm workers to be protected by OHS laws, workers' compensation and other labour and employment standards from which they are currently exempt.
A number of politicians and labour advocates, including provincial NDP leadership candidate Rachel Notley and Liberal agriculture critic David Swann, are also calling on the Alberta government to modify legislation to ensure farm work is regulated by the OHS Act and workers' compensation.
But all three Progressive Conservative leadership candidates — Ric McIver, Thomas Lukaszuk and Jim Prentice — have shied away from promising to change the laws, a promise former premier Alison Redford made in the 2011 PC leadership race.
Provincial data shows 447 Alberta farmers died on the job between 1985 and 2010. Sixteen died last year.
Devin Yeager, with United Food and Commercial Workers Canada, said the only difference between farm work and other industries is that farm workers are not afforded the same protections, noting that a Brooks-based meat production company has different benefits for its employees
"JBS has the slaughter facility on one side of the highway, which is unionized and covered under OHS and workers' compensation," Yeager said. "They have a feedlot across the street ... but it's not allowed to be unionized because it's illegal, they are not covered under OHS and they are not covered under workers' compensation."
Wildrose agriculture critic Ian Donovan said his party does not support applying the OHS Act to the farming industry in Alberta because of worries the rules will fail to understand the unique work conditions on farms.
"As a critic for agriculture and an advocate for agriculture, I don't want to start making rules that are unattainable," Donovan said, adding that as a farmer himself, he doesn't know a single family or corporate farm that would put their employees in an unsafe situation.
"I'm not saying I've ever seen it, but if there was a handful of employers that don't treat their employees good and put them in unsafe scenarios, is regulating the whole industry what we need to do to solve that?"
Donovan, who voluntarily opted in to workers' compensation for his employees, said he does not support mandatory workers' compensation for farm workers because industry leaders are already discussing how to address concerns about workers' insurance.

Stand Your GroundSubmitted by Linda Cross on Thu, 07/11/2013 - 15:07
Why does our government organize and manage protests against Zimmerman? Gun control and citizen control.
What better state than Florida to meet the gun control issue head on. Florida is the state which legalized self defense in 2005 with the "Stand Your Ground" law. In Florida one doesn't run and hide and call the cops. Every criminal knows that robbing the convenience store or breaking into a private home can result in being shot.
On a personal note, I own a place in the country in Florida. It's one of those common Florida areas where everyone has at least one acre. Everyday after 5, when the working folks get home, there's the rhythmic music of gunfire all around the countryside. Florida is practicing.
The criminals in our government, the Corporations in control, are desperate to get the citizens back under control. They want the assurance that only criminals can carry guns. Florida's Stand Your Ground law is under attack in the George Zimmerman trial. Win or loose, this trial will cause citizens to be reluctant to stand their ground. That split second hesitation can mean the difference between life and death.
The second reason our tyrannical government is organizing protests around this trial, is to 'Divide and Conquer' its citizens. There's a continuous agenda to divide us; Left/Right, black/white, citizen/immigrant, Jew/Gentile, Latino/Gringo, Christian/Muslim. Any time that you can divide the argument between two groups of citizens, be aware that the hand of Tyranny is there, working the puppet strings, supporting the conflict. As long as we are divided, we are no danger to those who would control us.
The Department of Justice records have not been headlined in the news. Their records show financial support of the protesters in Sanford. They are not mentioned because the TV news is on both "sides" of a black/white conflict which the tyrannists would like for us to see as the reason for this trial. They are letting us know by announcing over and over, that race riots and civil unrest will follow this trial if Zimmerman is acquitted. Even now, the police are going door to door in Sanford, preparing the citizens to get ready. Who will be surprised if Martial Law is declared in Sanford, even before the verdict is read? You can be sure that they already have riot instigators ready. Only a very diligent and united citizenry will be able to remain calm and arrest their attacks by not playing the game.
So, what to do when the George Zimmerman trial is over? Stay home, stand your ground, and keep practicing!

Good Reporting omaleta!! Best post of the day
THANK YOU for educating me!!! MUCH APPRECIATION AND RESPECT
So nice of you to say so :)
I'm trying to steer my indignation into serious writing, but I was always lousy in English class. So, we will see.
"educating"? I know it's nothing you don't already know, so I must have broken one of my self-imposed writing rules: Don't lecture!
If you see something, say something, the government is listening.
Silence isn't golden, it's yellow.
"So nice of me to say so"? You have got to be kidding me.
Let's get something clear.. I AM NOT NICE
I am honest, and sometimes that just appears to be nice.. but I am not being nice.. I'm being honest.
You didn't lecture.. you made a GREAT POST that educated me and I APPRECIATE IT!
I think you must have had a one of those English vampire teachers that hates other writers.. see the students as a threat and so they take their pain out on the student that shows potential.. tries to suck the energy from them and kill their artistic side..
WRITE MORE Gawd knows I can't, flippin dyslexia.
Oh, so we are left handed, are we not?
and you are funny, but I can't say that, so I will just say Thanks! again. I hope Snowden had a safe trip. Do you know why he is such a danger to the Tyrannist? He revealed that the USA is spying on EVERYONE! So, all those groups that keep us divided, black/white rich/poor Republican/Democrat etc. they are united by Snowden. They all of a sudden realized that we are ALL screwed, we are ALL on the same plantation now. The Tyrannist are afraid, very afraid. Have a safe trip Edward Snowden.
If you see something, say something, the government is listening.
Silence isn't golden, it's yellow.
I don't buy that
If we are not aware of the what the patriot Act I & II did, then we were NOT awake. How many here are not on facebook because facebook took ALL their private information and made it there's? How many wondered why Bill Gates restricted his kids from the net?
Who here actually thinks that the government has not been gleaning web sites for info on them is definately asleep.
So those who say: "SNOWDEN SAYS THE USA IS SPYING ON THEM WITH NSA" are not only asleep, but in REM stage http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0GFRcFm-aY
All those groups united with snowjob are UN NWO cheerleaders.
Snowjob didn't steal any money.. snowjob didn't kill anyone.
Snowjob is seeking asylum in the biggest UN suckers on the planet.. and what's he going to do for us.. close the borders.
The perception that we already knew?
Now everyone knows, which does make a difference. We are way past the end of the world, as we know it. Trust no one you say? I've come to that conclusion a few times, but I tend to believe that Snowden is as he says he is, and try to concentrate on the information and not the person. Of course, no matter what I think I know, I could be wrong. I do wish him safe passage to where ever he might roam. Do you know why he couldn't leave Russia? He was Snowden.
If you see something, say something, the government is listening.
Silence isn't golden, it's yellow.
What kind of difference?
UN NWO wants the destruction of America: Home of the brave, land of the free. So if waking everyone up to YOU ARE NOT FREE. How does this help America THRIVE? I think it seeds fear, hate and self destruction by inducing a negative reaction.
I did not say, "Trust no one". I say, "Jesus I trust in you". IOWs I TRUST God's will is the way, so when MY wy is not THE way, I adapt, THANK GOD, and continue to strive to thrive.
Why couldn't he leave Russia? Because Russia is NOT free.
And this:
In response to a Florida Sunshine Law request to the City of Sanford, Judicial Watch also obtained an audio recording of a "community meeting" held at Second Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church in Sanford on April 19, 2012. The meeting, which opens with a gospel hymn and organ music, is reported to have led to the official ouster of Sanford's Police Chief Bill Lee. A week earlier, a group calling themselves the "Dream Defenders" had barricaded the entrance to the police department demanding he be fired for failing to file murder charges against Zimmerman. The church meeting produced a nine-point plan, the main demand being the firing of Chief Lee.
the "Dream Defenders" were bused in
at taxpayer expense, of course! "the "Dream Defenders" barricaded the entrance to the police department demanding Lee be fired. According to the Orlando Sentinel, DOJ employees with the CRS had arranged a 40-mile police escort for the students from Daytona Beach to Sanford."
Dream Defenders is a government program designed to cause tension between whites and blacks, led by a man who is neither, Obama.
If you see something, say something, the government is listening.
Silence isn't golden, it's yellow.
Get a load of this:
The George Zimmerman investigation was hijacked "in a number of ways" by outside forces, said the former police chief of Sanford, Florida.
Bill Lee, who testified Monday in Zimmerman's second-degree murder trial, told CNN's George Howell in an exclusive interview that he felt pressure from city officials to arrest Zimmerman to placate the public rather than as a matter of justice.
"It was (relayed) to me that they just wanted an arrest. They didn't care if it got dismissed later," he said. "You don't do that."
Or this:
Records obtained by Judicial Watch in response to local, state and federal public records requests show that the so-called peacekeepers are part of a large and growing division within DOJ called the Community Relations Service (CRS). Though CRS purports to spot and quell racial tensions nationwide before they arise, the documents obtained by Judicial Watch show the group actively worked to foment unrest, spending thousands of taxpayer dollars on travel and hotel rooms to train protestors throughout Florida. The peacekeepers also met with officials of the Republican National Convention, scheduled for several months later in Tampa, to warn them to expect protests in connection with Martin's death.
CRS employee spent $1,142.84 to travel to Sanford, Florida from March 25-28, 2012 "to work marches, demonstrations, and rallies";
CRS employee spent $751.60 to travel to Sanford, Florida from March 30-April 1, 2012 "to provide technical assistance to the City of Sanford, event organizers, and law enforcement agencies for the march and rally on March 31";
CRS employee spent $1,307.40 to travel to Sanford, Florida from April 3-12, 2012 "to provide technical assistance, conciliation, and onsite mediation during demonstrations planned in Sanford";
CRS employee spent $672.24 to travel to Tampa, Florida from April 18-20, 2012 "to meet with RNC official related to possible protests and demonstrations during the RNC"
CRS, part of Obama's job growth program?
good research, thanks. It's all out there, but if you watch the all day TV show of the Zimmerman trial, you never hear any of this.
If you see something, say something, the government is listening.
Silence isn't golden, it's yellow.

30th b'day - Tao or Kittichai?
I'm having my 30th birthday dinner in a few weeks. It will be a party of six (one vegan, two pescatarian diners who eat seafood, dairy, and veggies [no poultry/beef/pork], and three "standard" eaters).
I have reservations at both Tao and Kittichai but have been to neither.
Which would you recommend? Or is there another restaurant that you fancy? I'm looking for Asian cuisine (I'm a particular fan of spicy Asian cuisine) because I feel that it's easiest to accomodate the various dietary restrictions. I want a place that feels "special" as I only turn 30 once!
I don't love Kittichai. I think it's expensive for what it is. I am a big fan of Tao though. The food is good there and fun for a bday dinner. I also surprisingly like Buddhakan. I say that because I love the one in Philly and didn't expect the hype to be lived up to in NY but the food is solid and the space is very unique. And, it's fun to share the dishes.
re: nyccookie
Thanks -- Buddakan was also on my radar, but they could only accomodate a party of 6 at 5:30 or 10:30, neither of which aren't idea times. :)
re: wcgirl
Great! Two votes for Tao...
re: bac528
I think Megu might be out of our price range -- Tao is a bit less expensive, yes?
You can really determine the price by how you order!! You must try it...no comparison to Tao....different league altogether!!! You won't be sorry.
Would anyone else second Megu over Tao, especially considering the dietary restrictions of my group?
If you eat at Megu, you'd never waste your time going back to Tao. A world of difference. Megu is for those who know good food and Tao is for those who don't care!!
Tao is a theme park. Kittichai is really good food. Like, REALLY good food. And to top it off? Tao is kinda over...if you were going for scene-y, Spice Market?
If you are for Asian Spicy...consider going to Devi...the food is good, the space is nice and festive enough (request a table in the ground floor). Both Tao and Kittichai were made more for the scene and don't really focus much on good food together with the other mega Asian fusiony places that recently opened. Tabla maybe another good option as the space is also good and there are a lot of options for the veggies and the bar area serves great fun cocktails that can start the ball rolling even before dinner...happy birthday!
re: nyufoodie
I've got reservations at Tao, Kittichai, and Devi now -- and after scouring these boards, I'm leaning towards Devi, actually. Thank you!
I was a bit disappointed in Tao. Felt like we spent a lot and was extremely underwhelmed by the food - we definitely wont go back. There's many other fusion places that offer better quality IMO.
I went to Tao for a business dinner. Food was okay, overpriced. Place was noisy. They do have the giant Buddha. . .Fun if people are into a scene. Would not be my choice for a 30th B-Day. Agree with NYUfoodie that Tabla might be a good choice. Danny Meyer's restaurants (Gramercy Tavern, Union Square, Tabla, etc.) generally have delicious food, quality service and are consistent. They may not be for those chasing the latest trend, but they have staying power.

Hey everybody,
On Halloween night at Epcot Suzanne and Isaac our head roadie had planned a trick not a treat in an attempt to try and surprise me during our final set. This is the time I usually introduce Suzanne to the audience but as you can see a much less attractive some might say scary version appeared instead. Because of the strict enforcement of the 30 minute set rule by Disney a performer such as myself( one who can blab a lot between songs) can suddenly realize he is running out off time, hence my forgetting to introduce Suzanne and moving on to the next song. John reminded me I forgot to introduce her so I unintentionally ruined their surprise. Oh goody let's trick Dennis won't that be fun.They were lucky I didn't have a stroke considering the visage I observed approaching me. Poor Issac thought I was mad at him, I was not but I was quite disappointed in his fake boobs and his depilatory issues. Afterward I recommended electrolysis and gave him a years supply of Nair. I was shocked to find he had been using both for over six months.
cheers, dennis
the fun starts around 50 seconds
Hey look it's GUITAR WORLD. Congrats to August and Jimmy you deserve all the attention you have been getting and I don't mean those pesky IRS agents.
cheers, dennis
Hey everybody,
Here is my extended family at Epcot. I enjoy these gigs because it allows my band to gather with their families to be together for three uninterrupted days of joy at the happiest place on earth, which for me would be my house with a plate of Suzannes's spaghetti and meatballs(turkey by the way) watching the Bears beating Green Bay. That last part is really pure fantasy because as long as Aaron Rogers is breathing no way. Hey look he just threw another touchdown pass against the Bears defense from the locker while soaking in the hot tub. Please all my fans up in Wisconsin feel free to still like me despite this character flaw. By the way Dave my tour manager and my entire crew are from Appleton and they all wear the green and gold, see if you can pick them out in the photo. Here's a clue. They are the ones bits of cheese at the corners of their mouths.
cheers, dennis
Hey everybody,
This was part of an interview I did for Guitar World. That's right Guitar World of which both August and Jimmy were also interviewed. I only know two chords on guitar which puts me only one chord away from challenging Buddy Guy and EricClapton to a blues guitar duel. They had better watch their step. Thanks to Jimmy Woods
Gathered around the tv in my parents home were my sister Darcy, mom and dad and a couple of friends. My friends and I were on our way to our Sunday night ritual which was the Mendel Catholic High School dance. In those days this was the place to go in our neighborhood for boys to meet girls and visa versa. I was not interested in the Beatles for I had heard the hype incessantly on the radio and I Want To Hold Your Hand and was not impressed. My friend Dave had Meet The Beatles and had bought Beatle boots, good grief. After they performed their first song All My Loving I was totally transfixed like some many of the 74 million other who saw the show. After the program we were off to Mendel to check out the bands and the girls. Exactly two Sundays later we were at the same dance trying to twist and jitterbug our way into the hearts of some of the cutest Catholic school girls on the South Side. The dances ended at 10 pm and this night like too many others my friends and I were scoreless, no dates no phone numbers nada. As we filed out onto the streets on our way to our cars we passed a group of girls. Me, Mickey Bogie, Dave Heaster,Tom Ebert and Lary Leugoud (who posts on this site often hey Lar) approached them and I was instantly taken with a gorgeous brunette who stood out like a leko was focused on her and her alone. I immediately engaged her in a conversation that seemed much too one sided, so I took her hand out of her overcoat pocket to look for a steady ring which in the those days would have meant she was taken. No ring. She pulled her hand back as though I was intruding on her space and remained aloof for the remainder of our time. Shortly afterward the girls were picked up by one of their parents but a group connection had been made and it was decided as a group we would meet at a dance the next week over at St Anthony's. We did and that night I fared much better getting the girls phone number. It was of course Suzanne. By the way she told me later that she was interested initially in one of my friends not me.So within a two week period in February of 1964 my personal and professional life was set in stone without me having the slightest clue as to what had just occurred. Amazing! I came to this realization when talk about the Beatles and 50 years and Suzanne and mine came together. The night we met was captured in the second verse of Beneath the Moon from the Boomchild album.
To my one and only true love who has been there for me through everything I say
Love, dennis
Hey everybody,
First of all thanks for all the great comments about the DVD CD it's much appreciated. I do read my facebook page.
I just returned from two shows in Missouri and a week of promotion in my second home, Quebec. The band and I had a great time at the Family Arena in St Louis a venue we played four years ago where the band with Craig and August played one of it's first shows. I rarely have the opportunity to perform in arena's but when I do this band really shines. I am reminded of the days when every night was a show in a big hall. It's exhilarating! Thanks to all those in attendance, St Louis remains a strong market for me.
My time in Montreal and Quebec City always allow me to pretend I'm Sting for a week. You know, people recognize me everywhere I go, greet me en Francais make a big deal over me and start asking me about Tantric sex. I tell them I practice frantic sex instead which is the same thing except it lasts only 10 seconds, which allows more time for hobbies. (see how silly you get when you try to be funny)
I performed on Quebec's biggest morning show "Salud Bonjour", did several radio shows, one with my buddy Terry DiMonte and countless press interviews. Once again the response to the DVD has been astonishing. I have heard over and over that this band truly captures the spirit and sound of the music of Styx so "mission accomplished". (sorry "W") The ticket sales for Le Capitole have been so good that more shows are being added. If you live in Vermont or Maine or near an airport come to Quebec City this is a great opportunity to see this wonderful city all decked out for Christmas. Plus Castle Walls, Mademoiselle, This Time Next Year and 100 Years will be rotated into most shows.
I got my first look at the DVD CD in Montreal when Eric from Universal handed me a box of them. Thanks to Frontiers for making such a beautiful package chuck full of photos and info, I fear soon these things will no longer exist and our collective heads will all be "in the clouds". Hey who put all my stuff up there. Because I was in Canada I was not able to see the AXS show until I returned home. I held my breath because I had never seen the final product and broadcast always does something to the audio mixes, it's just the nature of the beast. Hooray it was awesome. Breathe again.
The songs chosen had to fit a 52 minute format so the decisions are always tough.
The DVD has 16 songs so everything is there except Rockin the Paradise for which synch rights could not be obtained, but it rocks the cd with the great guitar duel of 1886. Of course I ran around the whole house listening to the AXS show on every one of my TV's. The Samsung in the family room needs help but I knew that because even tv programs never cut it audio wise I thought I was losing my hearing. As fate would have it the best tv in the house is up in the Master bedroom so I went there first and sure enough the picture was sightly out of synch with the music. I freaked, then I
realized that this new system from direct tv which was recently installed allow you to watch any recorded program in any tv in the house no matter where it was recorded, causes audio delay. I went to another tv and it was perfect. After two antacids and five fingers of Jack Daniels I settled down.( If you ever see me drink 5 fingers of Jack say a prayer because the end of days is upon us)
Pictures of Quebec will be coming soon.
cheers, dennis
This is an interview I gave about the new DVD CD to a London based magazine called Fireworks. Ian was a wonderful lad who encouraged me to travel to jolly old to play some shows. Nice work if you can get it and it turns out I am exactly two pints down on my bangers and chips. Go ahead now everyone let's start the banger jokes, you notice I restrained myself.
I am in Montreal as I write, my second home promoting the release and the shows at Le Capitole in December. Because of demand the promoters have threatened to add even more shows...mon Dieux I will have to get dual citizenship and buy Rosetta Stone en Francais. Maybe I should ask those promoters to go to London.
cheers, dennis
Over the years I have read that some people believe Kilroy Was Here was a rip off of Rush's album 2112. Mostly Rush fans. So today for the first time ever I looked up 2112 and read the plot line and song list(have I mentioned were in the grip of a polar vortex here and...I'm bored).
Though I have great respect for Rush I have never owned a Rush album and know them mostly from their songs that made the radio,Tom Sawyer, Fly by Night, Closer to the Heart. I was surprised to find that I didn't recognize any of the song titles on this album. I guess what I'm getting at is if there are ANY similarities between 2112 and Kilroy it's totally coincidental.
Remember great minds think alike, unfortunately so do mediocre and stupid ones.
Neill Peart who wrote the lyrics and story of 2112 based his concept on an Ayn Rand book entitled Anthem. He has since denounced his love of her writings and blamed it on the musings of his youth. I have never denounced Kilroy but I do regret not making him Chinese given the way there world has turned. Thank you very much Mr Roboto in Chinese is Fei Chang Xie xie Xiansheng Ji Qi Ren, catchy huh, on second thought.
Peart's vision of the future was about an intergalactic group of priests who utilize computers to dominate all areas of society kind of like the IRS but with zappers. On the other hand Dr. Righteous is simply a cable network owner whose part preacher and politician, though unelected. His goal is to simply ban rock music with a group of like minded anti first amendment thugs, increase his networks viewership and make himself rich. He even has his own brand of fried chicken. He's Branding)In the original draft he was a failed rock musician who'd found the righteous path, so to speak.
2112 has the Red Star of the Solar Federation and the temple of the Syrinx. Neil's thinking big thinks here while Kilroy only has little old Dr Righteous and the Majority for Musical Morality. Wimpy by comparison. Hell Rush had the whole damn galaxy no wonder their in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Rush's hero finds a guitar learns how to play it and attempts to bring back the old ways but finds resistance from you know who, the Syrinx cat's. He becomes despondent and commits suicide. Bummer.
In Kilroy Jonathan Chance has the guitar passed to him by his mentor Kilroy and vows to fight to keep rock alive. ("Damn it Kilroy")Does he succeed, who knows, but it's hopeful. However if current music trends are any indication Miley Cyrus's tongue, Lady Ga Ga's designer and Bruno Mars fancy footwork have done more to kill rock music then twenty Dr Righteous's. Face it kids Pop rules!
I could keep blabbering on here but I noticed the sun just came out and it's nearly reached 10 degrees so in conclusion, I never ever knew anything about 2112 when I came up with the Kilroy concept (it would be fun to say it was all Neil Peart's fault) and to me the similarities are oblique at best, besides if you are looking for the originators of these kinds of ideas I suggest Fritz Lang's Metropolis and of course Orwells 1984. By the ray Rush fans Syrinx...Styx...Syrinx...Styx...hmmmm I wonder. cheers, ddy
Hey everybody,
Here are some pics from our concert on Freemont Street in Las Vegas hope you like them.
Me and the band have had one heck of a year so far and were heading into our busiest July ever.
The word has spread about this band and this show which as I have said before gives Styx fans the songs and concert they have been waiting for. We have been selling out left and right which let's us know we've set the right course. You know the one for the virgin sea. Or as someone asked me recently what's a vergency.
The city of Las Vegas estimated the crowd at 2 million but that of course includes casino skimming and 1.9 million comps, oh and all the people from the canceled Sigfreid and Roy show and spill over from the Pacquiao fight. Those people were fighting mad.
This past week we played an acoustic show for radio station KHITS in Chicago on Navy Pier. The show sold out in less than 36 hours. The setting at the pier was priceless, with the lake and the skyline in full view on a perfect night. The station played The Best of Times and Mr. Roboto along with the usual suspects daily for nearly 2 months promoting the show. Thanks to Todd Cavanaugh and Eddie and Jobo for all the airplay and kind words.
Cheers, ddy

But Palangi gained most notoriety regionally through his community service, investing 41 years into charitable works through Glens Falls Kiwanis.
In the mid-1980s, Palangi served as Governor of New York State District Kiwanis, and for years later on the Kiwanis International Foundation Board.
Dan Stec of Queensbury recalled how Palangi's ever-present goodwill and cheer was contagious.
"Tony would light up a room when he entered it," Stec said. "Then everyone would gravitate around him - he was the face of Kiwanis in the region, and he was so well-known in the area for all his good works."
Among those charitable works were his actions of organizing fundraising events for charity and 31 years of effort through Kiwanis to promote youth programs.
Warren County Board of Supervisors Chairman Fred Monroe said Palangi's life was dedicated to others.
"Anthony Palangi defended our nation with honor," he said.
Anthony Palangi died Oct. 6, 2007, and was buried in St. Mary's Cemetery. His two wives, Madonna Carnahan and Virginia Brenno, predeceased him. Altogether, the Palangis had seven children.
After the ceremony, Anthony Palangi's son Joe said he was proud of his father's attitude and accomplishments.
"He's part of the generation that built the nation we have today," Joe said.
"My father was very patriotic, and he always enjoyed honoring veterans," he added. "He must be 'up there' smiling right now."

The press certainly likes California Family Fitness, granting the exercise venue such awards as Best Gym on KCRA-3's 2012 and 2014 A-List and Sacramento News and Review's Best of Sacramento 2012 Award. The press, however, isn't the top priority for the gym's staff; they believe that, to quote their about CFF page, ?awards don't greet you at the door.? Instead, they depend upon their dedicated staffers at the front desk, chaperones at the Kidz Club play zone, and personal trainers to make families of clients feel at home. Certified personal trainers take aspiring exercisers of all ages through regimens that make use of the 18 available locations' ample workout machinery. Seasoned instructors, meanwhile, hold group fitness classes, free with a membership, fostering community as they incinerate calories during high-energy Zumba, step aerobics, Turbo Kick, and Hip Hop Hustle. Nine of the locations boast pools that host swim lessons taught by certified water-safety instructors.
While hitting the gym, parents can drop wee ones at childcare havens. After breaking a sweat on the exercise floor, clients can also shed excess body moisture in saunas and tanning beds.
Andy Siebert floated in the water, weightless—almost as if in outer space—and watched as all 40 feet of a Galapagos Island whale shark drifted past him. It's moments like that one that Andy lives for, having devoted his life to scuba diving. He took his first dive as a teenager, but didn't take the sport seriously until he turned 42, at which point he began his journey to log more than 3,000 dives.
Now, as owner of Scuba World, Andy works to help others discover their love of the underwater sport. One part retail shop and one part scuba-diving school, the PADI five-star IDC dive center is chock-full of gear for purchase and rental, as well as expert instructors who teach classes for divers of all levels, including instructor-level classes. Their classes range from beginner discovery sessions to open-water-certification courses to rescue-diver classes for the more advanced diver who is worried about all those fish in the ocean who need help getting out. Andy's wife and partner, Lynn Siebert, plans trips that take divers to waters all over the world, including the nearby Monterey Bay and more far-flung expeditions in Micronesia.
Walking into the weight room at The Capital Athletic Club, visitors may think they've stepped into a European cathedral. Vaulted wood ceilings soar above resistance machines and free weights, immersing exercisers in a light, airy atmosphere and allowing trainers to participate in the annual Bring Your Giraffe to Work day. Dozens of classes cater to group fitness in four wood-floored studios and a heated, outdoor pool ensures comfortable laps regardless of outside temperature. Enthusiastic, highly qualified personal trainers collaborate with members, helping craft new programs for beginners or enlivening veterans' tired routines.
The club's amenities mirror its luxurious appointments, with each full member receiving a permanent locker for stashing clothes and parking meters you tore out of the ground with your bare hands. The staff launders workout clothes overnight, freeing up members' time for relaxing in the expansive saunas and steam rooms. WiFi facilitates impromptu business meetings and spa services offer relaxing treatments.
Gina Rossi's art comes to life in a flurry of sparks and cauldrons of heat. A self-taught artist and certified metal-inert-gas (MIG) welder, her work incorporates fused glass, paintings, and organic metal figures, and has been featured in the Sacramento Press, as well as KCRA Channel 3 news. When she was young, Rossi's forays into art and imagination provided stable solace from her tumultuous and oft-troubled childhood, and her passion eventually flowered into a full-time endeavor. Through her growth as an artist, she adopted a trash-into-treasure approach, working with recycled metal and glass, and earning notoriety for getting Oscar the Grouch evicted to craft a piece from his former home. Her regular welding and fused-glass-art classes share her talents with eager students, as do her efforts with community art projects, which empower young, disabled, and elderly people to make their creative mark in the world.
Since 1972, Spare Time Clubs has evolved into a 10-club, full-service family sports club company that includes programs for both adults and children. Each location varies in size—some boasting multiple complexes—and houses amenities such as lighted tennis courts, pools, kids' play areas, and fitness centers. At the Diamond Hills and El Dorado Hills locations, members can shine up in the onsite European spas, and the jewel of the Gold River club is a lighted stadium court encircled by a 5,000 square-foot observation deck. In the event of inclement weather or courts being overrun by ball-chasing dogs, players can schedule time at the dedicated indoor-tennis center, where eight fully sectioned-off, championship courts glow under the power of tournament-level lighting. World-class coaches develop kids' court skills at the junior tennis academy, students of which can practice with an unlimited number of sessions at any of Spare Time's other clubs.
When sharing his fitness expertise with Village Life, Anthony Adedipe lauded the effects of exercise, maintaining that physical activity "releases endorphins" and "keeps you energized." The certified trainer is distinctively knowledgeable on matters of fitness and health due to his lifetime of athletic experience, his years playing college football, and a decade working in the fitness industry. Anthony brings this wealth of knowledge and experience to his branch of the nationally accredited Adventure Boot Camp, where he and his staff of certified trainers lead women through imaginative, high-intensity workouts. The coaches conduct classes outdoors at Washington Park and occasionally take class field trips to special locations, mixing things up by jogging through a forest or confusing security guards by crab walking through the airport. In addition to fitness instruction, trainers provide members with nutritional advice and pre- and post-measurements.

Today I noticed that my right bicep looks pretty good symmetrical wise and in size but then I looked at my left and the top half of my left bicep is noticeably bigger than the bottom half (top half of left bicep is same size as whole right bicep)...I also noticed my right arm is more flexible and stronger in certain positions, for example at fully extended... How do I even out this out... And if i have to isolate the left arm how do I make sure my top half of the left bicep doesn't get bigger along with the bottom half while getting bigger than the whole right one?
Thank you

Armed teachers under debate in Colorado
Updated On: Feb 11 2014 04:30:22 PM CST
Colorado's public schools would be allowed to permit teachers to carry concealed weapons under a bill up for discussion Tuesday in the Legislature.
The Republican proposal has been made before without success, but the suggestion has additional resonance after last year's Arapahoe High School shootings, in which a student targeted a teacher.
The hearing also comes a week after a poll showed Coloradans narrowly say public schoolteachers should be armed. The Quinnipiac University Poll found that voters favored arming teachers to prevent violence in schools by a 50-45 margin.
Democrats say the proposal is a bad idea and that school security should be left to armed officers, not teachers.

For as long as businesses have been considering mobile working, the concern topping everyones list has been security. In the early days, the questions and uncertainties related to the technology, but as experience has been gained and solutions have matured, realisation is dawning that the greatest risks are associated not with the technology per se, but with how it is deployed and used.
Only 1 in 5 say users have a consistently good attitude towards mobile security
A recent series of online workshops and surveys gathering input from both IT and business professionals revealed that the attitude of mobile users to security is either poor or variable in 80% of organisations.
But poor attitudes to security cannot be blamed on the users themselves
Ignorance and lack of risk awareness are the root causes of user related security issues. With the right kind of instruction delivered in the right kind of manner, users can be encouraged to develop a responsible attitude. Those delivering mobility related training in a classroom based environment, for example, are 4 times more likely to have created a consistently good attitude towards mobile security among their users.
When instructing users, it is necessary to brief them on all of the risks
While the trigger for providing security related advice and guidance is often the issuing of a new device to a user, the risks associated with mobile working go beyond single applications and pieces of equipment. Potential exposures can arise from behaviour that users may not always think of as risky. Frequently overlooked or ill-considered risks include the eavesdropping of mobile phone conversations in public places, the inadvertent display of confidential information on notebook screens to fellow travellers, and the invitation to snoopers and highjackers made when devices are improperly configured or WiFi networking is used in an inappropriate manner.
Simple approaches are more effective, so solving the problem is far from onerous
Of course it is possible to build extensive libraries of policies and procedures and devise in-depth training courses on the dangers of mobile working and how to deal with them. In most cases, however, this is not just unnecessary, but counter productive. The golden rule is that the fewer things you ask users to remember, the more chance there will be of them actually remembering and practising them. Relatively simple instructions, tips and guidelines are therefore far more effective.
Mobile security cannot be achieved through technology measures alone as user behaviour has a significant impact on the level of exposure. The danger is that security savvy IT staff often fail to appreciate that the risks and how to deal with them are not always obvious to the average user. The reality is that secure mobile working is dependent on users receiving the right kind of instruction.

Farmhouse Inn, Gen's Daughter, Girl and Fig, Cyrus, John Ash, Ravenous: which 3?
I have been given these 6 as the best spots in sonoma county...thoughts as to which are best? Looking for fabulous food and great ambience.
Hello, Ljero,
You've got a few posts here. Why not use Chowhound as the resource it is?
Enter each of those restaurants as search terms and read the reviews here. There are many recent comments.
You can also enter the terms "Sonoma restaurants."
The info you need is already right here. Enjoy your meal...
i will steer you away from ravenous. i ate there with two girlfriends this past december and it was okay. but the worst part about it was that we ordered chicken and a burger to split (which i think they were annoyed with) and when they served it the burger was great...but the chicken was raw under the skin. when i asked the waitress about it she said, " that's the way we cook it here." i asked her to take it back and cook it "well". after that it was fine. the food is unexciting, but the bar and the music can be great.
Here's a link to your earlier post asking for 3 dinner spots -
Girl and the Fig is the only place I've tried on your list. It has a nice patio for light snacks and wine but I wasn't overly impressed with the food. We had the burger with frites, the charcuterie plate and a seasonal salad (I think it was white beans). Except for the frites which was great, I thought everything tasted just above average. It has a good cheese selection from what I can recall.
If you want a very swanky, special experience, DO NOT MISS Cyrus in Healdsburg, and make reservations as soon as possible.
I've been to Girl and the Fig and this post (http://www.chowhound.com/topics/show/...) drew me to Farmhouse last weekend. Farmhouse was INCREDIBLE and everything everyone else lauds it for - beautiful, relaxing location, great service (loved our attentive, thorough sommelier), and food that made me almost weep when it was finished. Fresh, bright, pure flavors, good use of local sustainable farming.
Girl and the Fig was very good but more casual service and presentation and not as memorable dishes. More homey, less unique. Less isolated location, for what that's worth.
I haven't been to Cyrus, but I have been to the Girl and the Fig and to the Farmhouse Inn.
Both were good, girl and the fig was more casual, and I like it for lunch or to sit at the bar and have some wine and tastes.
I had one of my better dining experiences at the Farmhouse Inn, and would highly recommend it.
Not only were the dishes spectacular, great scallops and foie gras, and an amazing trio of Rabbit dish, but the Sommelier made some recs I would have never thought of and they really complimented the food. Small, sweet, quiet atmosphere.
Absolutely lovely experience.
I would go back there in a heartbeat.

Smoke-free laws provide substantial health benefits for children, according to a recent study in the Lancet. Environments free of second-hand smoke are associated with a considerable decrease in premature births and a 10 percent reduction in hospitalizations for asthma in children, the Lancet analysis indicates.
Multiple studies have demonstrated that smoke-free environments result in significantly reduced cardiovascular events and hospital admissions caused by respiratory diseases for adults. This is the first study to show similar benefits for perinatal and child health. About 40 percent of children worldwide are exposed to the hazards of second-hand smoke.
Smoke-free laws create environments that decrease this exposure to hazardous second-hand smoke and the negative health affects associated with that exposure. As an added benefit, smoke-free laws for the workplace and public places often encourage people to quit cigarettes and/or to maintain smoke-free homes. This further reduces second-hand smoke exposure for everyone.
The Bottom Line on Smoke-Free Laws
Furthermore, smoke-free laws and policies can result in huge savings on medical costs. For example, a 10 percent decrease in hospitalizations could save the US and Europe an estimated $7 billion every year.
In 1993, the Joint Commission required all hospitals to ban indoor smoking. In 2010, the North Shore-LIJ Health System expanded on this policy to prohibit tobacco use on its outdoor campuses, too. This policy has the potential to:
- decrease exposure to second-hand smoke for patients, visitors and staff members;
- reduce hospitalizations and re-admissions;
- improve health and well-being;
- enhance patient, visitor and employee satisfaction;
- decrease costs associated with tobacco-related disease and disability;
- encourage community members to make their own homes smoke-free; and
- increase attempts to quit tobacco for good.
If a tobacco-free environment motivates you to consider quitting, take advantage of our comprehensive, free stop-smoking programs.

Indonesian President Susilio Bambang Yudhoyono has authorised government use of patents for seven HIV/AIDS and hepatitis B medicines.
This will allow local production of cheap, generic drugs to be available to the 186,000 people living with HIV in Indonesia.
Principal Fellow in Burnet's Centre for International Health, Bruce Parnell says Indonesia is serious about making treatment available and sustainable.
"Expenditure on HIV prevention and treatment in Indonesia is currently $69 million a year, reducing cost of drugs would certainly help save some of this money," Mr Parnell said.
See below to hear an interview with Mr Parnell on Phil Kafcaloudes program on Radio Australia.
