Federico Macheda made a mistake for Villa's second goal, but then made up for it with a cracker of a shot that offered his team a way back. I like Macheda. He's got lots of promise, talent and hunger and it looks as if he might be coming back on to the scene after injuries disrupted his development. He likes playing against Villa. That's the second time he's hurt them.

Meanwhile, many of the papers feature quotes from Arsene Wenger who believes his team displayed all the qualities needed to be champions as Arsenal moved to within two points of leaders Chelsea. The Gunners' shock home defeat by Newcastle has been followed by wins at Wolves and Everton. The Gunners are a point ahead of United, who lie third.

Category: Music Venues
Region: St. Louis - Grand Center
John Williams is synonymous with film scores at this point in his career. As soon as you read his name, chances are you heard the triumphant fanfare from Raiders of the Lost Ark or the menacing "Imperial March" from Star Wars. This weekend, David Robertson and the Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra pay tribute to the man who has provided the soundtrack of our happiest cinematic moments with the program Music of John Williams. Robertson leads the symphony through selections from Star Wars and Raiders, of course, as well as his work for War Horse and the underrated comic gem 1941. Don't be alarmed by the Star Wars-style stormtroopers in the lobby -- they're only there to pose for photos, not to take you to the detention level. Music of John Williams is performed at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday (December 27 through 29) at Powell Symphony Hall (718 North Grand Boulevard; 314-534-1700 or www.slso.org).

Directions is wrong. Nothing common with photos. The room is totally different. No window, bridge is close to building wall, so you can hear the noisy road. Bathroom is impossibly small. There is no any staff, you doing all by yourself. Anyone who lived there before can comeback and use entry codes to access. The hotel have no responsibility, you can pay again to store you luggage. Check out 10:30, every additional hour costs 100HKD. TV set up on the wall that way so you can't watching it.

Nothing really to complain about. The room of course was very small, but what would you expect when booking in a place called Micro Hotel. Great location and charming decoration. If you are on a budget and not too nitpicky can highly recommend this place, as It will be hard to find something cheaper in that area. The only thing felt a little bit insecure was the keycodes for the door, as everybody seemed to know them. But nothing was taken.

Not the best place to go if you want to meet people. Each room is very closed off, no meeting space as the hostel is just one short and narrow corridor with rooms leading off. Felt unsafe about a pin code to get into the rooms. Can not be more clear about the whole shower/toilet situation. It's not just a shower and toilet in the same room, it is a cubicle with a squat toilet and shower head + basin. Good value for money but hard to find and not the best reception for newcomers. BEDS OF WOOD!

Great location, a little hard to find but just ask any shopkeepers around the Nathan Hotel and they will happily guide you to where its at. We never spoke with any staff, our key to the door was left at the reception area with a note letting us know to drop key off when we are finished. Room was great, nice size, clean, tv, air con, but unfortunately the wifi didnt work, we stayed in the double private with ensuite. Very central location and not far from Star Ferry to Central, approx 10 min walk

Lidia being sued for enslavement
Oh Lidia, I hope this woman is wrong about you!
I enjoyed the comment thread on this article. Esp. the one from Tyrene (near the top of the comments).
from the article
But why, for six years, didn't Farina just get up and leave?
"[Farina] became bonded with this old lady, and didn't want to leave her like that," the lawyer said.
Ok so they admit she could have left, and chose not to. Sorry that doesn't equal enslavement.
re: rasputina
I think Farina was still hoping to get into the culinary world even after this old woman passed away.
The whole case is just bizarre.
Why would Lidia bring an Italian chef with no English to America and why would Farina go? Why not just hire a home health worker or caretaker? Obviously, it's cheaper as it turns out...Lots of things don't add up right.
She got her to the US under dubious circumstances, Farina was new to the US and probably intimidated / grateful to Lidia so she keeps on working, learns English and is settled after 6 years. Enslavement? Probably no, but lied to/taken advantage of? Most likely......
re: rasputina
I don't think we gave enough information for you to make that call.
re: rasputina
i have no idea if the allegations are true. However, if you recall the Elizabeth Smart case, simply because someone is not shackled to a wall does not mean that they are not technically a slave. If you are being paid below the minimum wage or denied basic rights like use of the bathroom, in the very least you qualify as working in sweatshop conditions and at the very worse, you are a slave. If someone who doesn't know English or our legal system is being mistreated, they may not necessarily have the means to leave.
re: NicoleFriedman
If anyone can find a denial or statement from Lidia countering the charge, you're a better searcher than I am. I think the woman was quietly paid off so the new book tour could begin. Can't imagine allowing such a scurrilous charge stand, if untrue, and not responding.
re: mcf
Defendants in civil actions are ALWAYS advised by counsel not to comment. And it is extremely difficult to summon up the restraint not to shout out the truth of the matter while the wheels of justice turn ever so slowly. It can be the most frustrating chapter of one's life, and expensive, too.
re: Veggo
Poor folks aren't usually in a position to employ folks and then abuse labor/wage rules, either. It's rampant at least here in NY, with food service among the most flagrant abusers. Eveyrthing must just happen to the Bastianich family.
Most folks want fair pay every week and to be treated with respect much more than they want a lawsuit and to go to court. That's why most folks aren't suing their employers. As for lawyer ads in ethnic papers, well YEAH, immigrant labor, particularly undocumented, is being exploited terribly.
I'd call the article cited by fourunder very, VERY self serving.
re: mcf
I agree with all you say. One would think the well-to-do have an extra incentive to comply with labor laws in order to keep what they have. Some do, some don't. For the record, I am very much an advocate of immigrant labor with fair working and living conditions. Pay is much more subjective, and is driven by supply and demand.
re: rasputina
Jaycee Lee Dugaard could have left too..but she didn't. I'd say the woman who spoke no English was enslaved...just like jaycee.
Time will tell how much of the complaint is accurate and supported by timeline and paper trail... it sounds as if they at least have false statements on immigration documents. Even if not legally enslavement, the woman is illegally here, can't speak the language and has no funds... compromised at least, and hoping that Lydia is going to come through for her. Clearly, it would have cost a great deal more to pay for professional home health care.
re: iL Divo
I think the true one is usually found somewhere between the two sides.
re: inaplasticcup
re: inaplasticcup
re: Rmis32
As someone who works in a hospital, Lord knows I have.
re: jmckee
It is a lawsuit that is making the allegations, not the NY Post, And though I don't trust the Post much more than you do, I trust that they didn't make up the lawsuit.
As others have pointed out, these allegations make a number of specific and mostly verifiable/falsifiable claims. Time will tell in this case, it seems.
Unless it's settled out of court. Which it likely will be.
Enslavement sounds like lawyer speak to generate sympathy for his client.
However, it is kind of fishy that LB and her daughter brought someone from Italy to take care of the old lady. LB got the house too!
I can see the plaintiff, being from the old country, feeling obligated to take care of the lady too. Actually, more of a Catholic guilt thing. If she leaves who will take care of her? etc...
I have a feeling that the Bastianichs' used their fame to their advantage.
But I'm just old and cynical.
How sad, I think it may be true. The woman had been here for so long, believed Lydia and quite frankly it is scary to pick up and leave when you don't have any relatives around. I don't know what I would do if I were in the same situation in a different country.
re: monavano
Now for the whole family, just based upon performance personnae. We have seen the claims, but have not seen the evidence. Why is there no criminal charge, only a lawsuit?
re: John E.
Well, yes, I understand that; my thinking is, we would have heard something of it, and that her lawyer would have held off suing til any CI was complete. Of course, it's possible that a CI will come out of the civil action evidence?
I don't understand why her lawyer went straight to lawsuit and no criminal complaint, especially given the conviction of a Long Island couple who enslaved women from overseas as household help. Long sentence and big fines.
re: John E.
Could it also be because there may be insufficient evidence to support a criminal case, so they are choosing to try her in the court of public opinion, using the NY Post in order to press her to settle financially before her reputation gets too damaged?
re: Cachetes
Even more so: a criminal trial wouldn't get her back wages. Whether or not there is enough evidence to support a criminal trial is moot. I'd bet the plaintiff is looking for a large, quick settlement, hence the NY Post. Doesn't mean she's wrong or that there's little evidence. Just means she needs money. You would too if you hadn't been paid in 6 years.
There's also the lesson learned from the OJ Simpson debacle, where winning a large civil suit after a criminal trial resulted in basically no money every being paid to the plaintiffs - all of the defendant's resources were used up in the criminal defense.
re: cowboyardee
I never meant to suggest that the plaintiff might be wrong, though I'm not as quick as some others here to suggest that she's necessarily right either. And you are absolutely right when you say that if she's been stiffed for 6 years, she deserves back pay and then some. If it does get settled quickly, we'll likely never know where the truth of it all lies.
re: Cachetes
Sure it could, because so far we have only heard details from one side of the case. I thought I made that clear?
re: John E.
I guess not clear enough so that I got it (that's no insult to your explanation, only to my powers of interpretation). You are seeing it in a more balanced way (let the process run its course, see where the evidence leads it), whereas I'm simply implying something more nefarious (that the plaintiffs may know they do not have enough evidence, and are simply getting around it).
re: monavano
I can think of two reasons to not be surprised at the antipathy shown on this thread. First, it is human nature. Second, there are a lot of details in the bews story against Ms. Bastianich with no denials or details in her defense.
re: John E.
The absence of denials or spin offensive does speak volumes, and I'd bet there are settlement talks taking place.
Who knows what the real truth is, but to me it certainly doesn't sound like enslavement. The woman was not shackled nor was she even locked in the house. She may not have been paid, but she lived in a house at no charge in exchange for caregiving, something my mother has done. If she was naive enough to think she'd be a star in a new country, she could have easily been talked into a lawsuit by some sleazy lawyer.
re: mojoeater
I think you're being a tad too literal minded.
re: mcf
I'd like to know who controlled her Passport.. There was a popular Japanese owner of Habachi Style restaurants in the New York Metro area....allegedly, he confiscated and withheld his employees' Passports , who were recruited from Japan and accused of making them indentured servants in effect.
re: mojoeater
I understand how serious enslavement is. I just don't think the only way to accomplish it is to chain someone to a radiator. In any case, there does not appear to be a denial from Lidia. Yet.
Wow; just read some of the posts on various sites.
People nicknaming her, Tanya and Joe "Beataly". I am going to watch this close; really like her and will have to wait and see how this all plays out. And, the whole staying for several years, that is a Catholic italian guilt thing. This lady probably did think she would make good on her promise.
I am going to follow this story.
By the way, I always wondered (not that it is any of my business) about her divorce from her husband. That was really kept out of the press from both sides. Wonder what happened there.
Lidia Bastianich has a new book out and will be on a book-signing tour for the next couple of months.
I wish my slaves would just shut up and row.
Does anyone believe this drivel? Show me a 100 year old obese person, and I will show you porcine dendrochronology very soon.
I don't understand a few things --
First of all, if Farina was a chef with 30 years experience she didn't fall off the turnip truck yesterday. It doesn't sound like she was a home cook, it sounds like she had professional employment as a chef in Italy. This is different from say, bringing in a person from a third world country for example and holding them "hostage" so to speak.
Second, I can't imagine that Farina would be so completely isolated in Queens as to not be able to remove herself from the situation. In fact, she's apparently "in hiding" in Queens, so she knows someone well enough to make that move.
Third, it would make no sense at all for this individual to 'trust" that her pay was being deposited in an account. After all, as a chef for 30 years, you have SOME sort of business sense.
Its pretty common for lawyers to use descriptive and colorful language to create a sense of something that just didn't happen. Their clients are rarey "upset", they are usually "outraged at the egregious abuse of blah blah blah". And anyone can file a lawsuit and make outrageous claims. I would be interested to know if the lawyer involved is on contingency...
As for Lydia, well I have no opinion one way or the other. All I do know is that I really didn't like her son as he was depicted on America's Next Best Chef, and some may say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
I'm interested to know how this plays out in the end, although I suspect it will be settled out of court and we really won't know what happened.
re: freia
I haven't seen anything suggesting that the woman was anything but a chef, which could have meant in a private home, for all we know, or as a very small time business participant. In fact, all the things you cite strongly suggest the lack of sophistication that could lead a person to such an unfortunate situation based upon trust and promises. Living in metro NY, I'm aware of cases of enslavement and isolation other than this one; not so difficult to pull off, really.
re: mcf
True, that, but I suspect those cases are more of indigent or very very vulnerable people who are brought into the country by third parties, who really are completely dependent on their employer. I suspect this woman isn't quite as indigent nor as vulnerable as portrayed. The ways I see it is if she was a chef in a private home (which is different from cooking staff in a private home) she must have been well known enough for Lidia to hear about her IF she was brought over under the guise of being a chef peer promoted by Lidia. I really don't think this woman is in the same category as a child who is abducted and held for years, nor an Indonesian girl from a small village brought over as a personal servant by a wealthy family. I guess we'll really never know, but I'm also pretty certain that I'm not going to take her lawyer's depiction of her at face value. And I'll bet he's on contingency, so for the lawyer there's really nothing ventured, nothing gained.
My best guess is that she came over under an agreement that didn't involve cooking but personally thought that she could find fame and fortune through Lidia and her connections, and when fame and fortune wasn't forthcoming, then she thought she'd get a few bucks out of the situation. And I'll bet Lidia thought she was going to employ a native Italian speaker for her friend on the cheap in exchange for airfare, room, board and pocket money. You need to remember that this kind of arrangement is typical in Italy. The number of personal assistant workers from other countries who work for room and board and pin money completely off the official record is astounding. So in Lidia's mind, she was hiring and doing what one normally does in Italy. Only this is the USA and rules are a wee bit different in this part of the world. Just my personal feeling on this, that's all, and like I said, we'll most likely never, ever know the truth.
re: greygarious
You're right. I'll bet she knew it wasn't the norm. But I'll bet she did it anyways. There's no end of stories out there where workers regardless of immigration status are employed for cash off the books or who work in exchange for pin money, room and board. I'll bet this is just another one of those cases. After all, if everything WAS above board I doubt this lawsuit would have happened. Something shady happened, but I don't think it really was "enslavement".
re: mcf
Not much else one can do without a response from Lydia nor having the facts of the case before you, I think? And hey, its pretty much what everyone else does when a newspapers treat celebrity news just like any other news story. They wouldn't report it if there wasn't going to be some sort of public response/discussion. Public figures and scandalous allegations sell newspapers...its life, I suppose. The legal and celebrity worlds have become spectator sports so to speak. If you enter those arenas, be prepared for such allegations from employees and speculation from the general public about pretty much every aspect of your life. Sucks, but hey, noone forces anyone to be in the public eye. Its part of the price of being a public figure.
In any event, I reserve the right, as does every member of the public, to speculate and consider what is really happening behind the headlines. As do you. :)
re: Manassas64
Wildly speculative, you mean? ;-)
Lidia's on Dr. Oz (sorry, i'm at my dad's, and he watches it every night!) and she has a nice modern haircut.
oh that link doesn't show a pic of her.... maybe catch the show online. she's showing how to make her tomato-almond pesto.
re: mariacarmen
"Nice modern haircut...." Do you mean that Lidia Bastianich CHANGED her hairstyle and no longer has that 12 year old boy haircut?
re: John E.
yes! it's still kinda boyish but now you can't see her bald spot.
re: mariacarmen
That's what happens when you have cancer, I suppose, chemo trashes your hair...
re: John E.
I could have sworn her son mentioned her and having cancer on that show he did with Gordon Ramsey and the other big dude..I don't even remember the name of that show (america's best home cook or something like that?) but I seem to recall this quite clearly. I'm pretty sure she's a breast cancer survivor, and I also recall seeing a tv show on Food Network featuring her where she talked about it and having chemo. All I can find online is this
where it is mentioned.
I guess she's kept it under wraps,choosing not to profit from her illness unlike some other celebrity chefs recently in the news? LOL
re: freia
She has been bald for a very long time... she has the pattern of hair loss and the body shape of someone who's very insulin resistant. Not saying she is, I have no knowledge of that. But chemo hair often comes in thicker than ever, a new color, curly when it was straight, etc... maybe also thin, but not necessarily.
re: mariacarmen
She must have a weave, she's been bald for years, with spray on hair color.. lots of years.
re: mariacarmen
Good for her... and also for having been confident enough appearing nearly bald on TV for so many years, too. Seriously; in this botoxed, plumped up, lasered and chemically peeled age...
re: mariacarmen
She's been making the media rounds promoting her new cookbook. She was even on Greater Boston, a strictly local show on Boston's PBS affiliate.
re: greygarious
She's also touring to promote a movie remake of Spartacus. Its about....ahhh nevermind.

Experience and veteran leadership usually reigns supreme in the Indiana high school basketball postseason.
Columbia City (17-5) have defied those notions with a sophomore-loaded team that makes its regional debut Saturday's class 3A tournament at Blackford High School.
Three of Columbia City's top four scorers are sophomores including its top two in Drew Benedict (17.0 ppg) and Derek Hinen (8.7 ppg).
The Columbia City Lady Eagles basketball team wrapped up the season with its annual banquet this week. Four players were awarded for helping lead their team to a 12-10 record. From left, senior Kayla Dunn (second-team All-NHC, most steals at 55, defensive award), senior Sierria Burlage (first-team All-NHC, best field goal percentage at 51, most rebounds at 153), senior Maddie Hinen (best free throw percentage at 84.8 and Lady Eagle Integrity Award), junior Sarah Opliger (most assists at 66). Post & Mail photo contributed
Conference championships and 10 plus wins will get you recognized among your peers —possibly honored with postseason accolades — in Indiana high school football.
For Columbia City head coach Randy Hudgins and two Eagles from Whitley County, the state took notice and placed them amongst the North All-Star selections.
As the Columbia City boys' basketball team went home with a sectional championship Saturday night, the three Eagles that led in scoring in a 67-66 win over Wawasee had another reason to celebrate.
Monday, the Northeast Hoosier Conference announced its all-conference teams.
The NHC was a conference filled with sophomore talent in the 2010-11 season. That also included Columbia City.
Five sophomores made the first-team list with Columbia City (17-5) garnering two of those.
COLUMBIA CITY — After 5,308 passing yards and nearly every conceivable throwing record at Columbia City High School, senior quarterback Logan Rehrer as he says in his own words "ready to take it to the next level."
Friday, the Eagles all-time passing leader announced he's taking his talents to Indiana State University.
Rehrer joins the Division I Sycamores of the Missouri Valley Conference as a preferred walk-on.
SYRACUSE — Embroiled in their first sectional title game in five years against a Wawasee team that has had their number over the past several seasons, the Columbia City Eagles dealt out the losing to the Warriors after facing a 12-point first quarter deficit to take a nine-point lead of their own.
With the game coming down to a single possession, the Eagles needed a defensive rebound on a missed Wawasee free throw to claim the class 3A Wawasee sectional title 67-66 over the host Warriors.
GARRETT — With 3:49 left and a 32-31 lead in Saturday night's class 2A sectional championship at Garrett, Churubusco boys' basketball was on the verge of doing something no other team in school history had done.
However, offensive woes in the second half, where the Eagles shot 3-for-15 and scored just 11 points, helped Prairie Heights rally to deny 'Busco its first title 38-36.
SYRACUSE — When Columbia City and Whitko square off, no matter what the sport, it is always and intense affair. Friday night's Class 3A sectional semifinal at Wawasee was no different.
The game came down to the long and the short of things, as Columbia City's ability to hit the long range shot and Whitko's difficulties at the free throw line propelled the Eagles to a 57-47 win.
GARRETT — It's happened only five other times in Churubusco boys' basketball history with each suffering the same losing effort.
With the help of a 50-32 sectional semifinal win at Garrett over the Railroaders Friday night, the Eagles sixth trip to a sectional championship game has a chance to be a first in the school's history.
'Busco will go for its first title ever against a familiar North East Corner Conference foe it's both lost and beaten this season.
It's funny how basketball doesn't always give second chances, yet sets up opportunities for payback. A controversial moment to start the season can be settled once and for all by Whitko.
After winning their sectional opener Tuesday over NorthWood, 61-45, the Wildcats earned a chance to avenge a 59-58 regular season loss at the hands of Whitley County rival Columbia City 6 p.m. Friday at the class 3A Wawasee sectional.

Before Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt married, the stars reportedly came to terms on a prenuptial agreement, as an insider says, and it was a doozy.
The pact, which was "was heavily encouraged by their lawyers," included a provision that would award the actress the majority of time with their kids.
"If Brad gets too serious with another woman while they are married," a source said of the Brangelina prenup, "she'll get primary custody if they split."
The couple "said that having a prenup is the best way to protect their kids," the source said, as well as each other, as both have quite a lot to protect.
The A-list couple has a total net worth of $425 million; with the 50-year-old actor's assets valued at $240 million, and his 39-year-old wife's at $185 million.
According to their agreement, should they part ways, each will leave with those millions they brought into the union on their own. As for the rest?

European Multicentre Study of Human Spinal Cord Injury

- How to Read a Study Record
Today there is accumulating evidence from animal experiments that regeneration can be induced after a spinal cord injury (SCI). Consequently in the near future, new therapeutic approaches to induce some regeneration will be included in the treatment of patients with SCI. The aim of this proposal is to provide the required clinical basis for the implementation of novel interventional therapies. The establishment of combined clinical, functional and neurophysiological measures for a qualitative and quantitative assessment of spinal cord function in patients with SCI at different stages during rehabilitation represents a basic requirement to monitor any significant effect of a new treatment. Therefore, several European Paraplegic Centres involved in the rehabilitation of acute traumatic SCI patients build up a close collaboration for standardised assessment. The aim is to get knowledge about the natural recovery after spinal cord lesion in a larger population of patients in the sense of a historical control group and to bring new standardised assessment tools to the clinical setting.

The Best and Worst of " The L Word" Season 5
Best ensemble: Anything worn by Jennifer Beals
When I lived on the East Coast, my friends and I would watch the show and say things like, "That would never happen," "Shane's not a butch" and "Who dresses like that?"
I wasn't alone in feeling that The L Word did a poor job of representing our community. Filmmaker Dasha Snyder made a hilarious parody called The D Word with "people who look like people" (and butches who look like Julie Goldman) to drive the point home.
But now that I live in L.A., I'm here to tell you yes, the drama on The L Word is real, some Hollywood lesbians really do look like that, and L.A. lesbian couture has a style all its own.
Bette's had some fashion missteps in the past, but this season, she had it going on.
Worst ensemble: Jodi's Incan housecoat
Human sacrifice. It's what's for dinner.
Jodi is perfectly capable of looking smashing, as she did when she exacted her revenge on Bette in the season finale. In fact, that was the best she's looked all season. Why she chose to throw on this nightmare is beyond me, except maybe her grass skirt and coconut bra were at the cleaners.
Best Use of Animals: Kangaroos
This is my favorite scribegrrrl recap image, ever.
Worst Use of Animals: Sounder
Here, Sounder. Here, boy! Has anyone seen Jenny's dog lately?
If Sounder had any sense, he would have run away. But knowing Adele, she drove him 50 miles outside the city and threw him out of a moving car. We'll miss you, our orange-beribboned friend.
What were your favorite best/worst moments? What other categories can you think of? Do tell.

Not sure if there are any other Liverpool fans in the forum so I'll probably end up talking to myself in here.
Seasons overs, Carragher retires and a lot of uncertainty right now (Reina) but also hope for the future (Sturridge, Coutinho).
A few rumors circulating right now with regards to what keepers we are looking at:
- Vorm (Rodgers first choice)
- Begovic (a bit expensive, but his move to Manchester looks off, so may still happen for us)
It will be interesting if the Kolo Toure deal gets done.

GOP Congresspeople (Not) on the President's Birth Certificate
Obviously, the subject of Barack Obama's birth certificate is a very popular subject amongst Republican congresspeople on The Hill. Why, it seems like the only thing they'd rather talk about is anything…
I feel for that one guy. Because sometimes you gotta just spend a third of an hour searching for the just-right pen. And it just makes it harder to concentrate on important things like pens when some jerkwad is sticking a camera in your face or trying to ask you a question about a thing.
Mike Stark (the guy in the video)'s summation…
Folks, this is what it has come to. The most powerful people in the world — nationally elected legislators responsible for setting policy for the most powerful country on earth — are lining up with cuckoo-bat-shit-crazy elements of the lunatic fringe.
And they have to. It's their base.
