Five injured in car crash
Published On: Feb 21 2014 10:14:40 PM CST
Updated On: Feb 21 2014 10:18:47 PM CST
Updated On: Feb 21 2014 10:18:47 PM CST
Five people are recovering after a crash in Bristol, Tennessee.
Officers say the crash happened around 6:00pm on Friday at the White Top Road Intersection with Highway 394 near Bristol Motor Speedway.
We're told a red pick up carrying 3 people was trying to cross the highway, when they say the sun got in the driver's eyes causing her to pull out in front of a Black Chevy Silverado carrying 2 passengers.
They tell us they had to cut one person out of one of the trucks.
The crash is still under investigation.

November 26, 2014
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) -- This is the first school year that 34 Illinois school districts will begin grading teachers on whether their students' test scores are improving, but the state's slow method of implementing a new teacher evaluation system is creating problems.
The evaluation timeline is the reason Illinois was rejected in its request to obtain a waiver from the federal No Child Left Behind Act.
School officials involved with the changes say there's little state support available for districts that don't have a large administrative staff or can't afford to hire outside help.
By 2016, Illinois law says 70 percent of a teacher's evaluation will have to be based on performance in the classroom in all 866 public school districts. The other 30 percent will be based on students' improvement on test scores.

Eat, in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, is rigorously local and sustainable—all the food is purchased from organic farms in the northeast (with the exception of the fish, which comes from Hampton Bay via Greenmarket vendors), including the 6000 sq. ft. Rooftop Farms atop a warehouse right there in Greenpoint. That also includes Wild Hive Farm, which has almost single-handedly brought the milling of grain back to New York, and which provides all the flour for Eat's breads, pastries and pastas.
Savino DiPalo's latteria opened on Mott Street in 1910, and supplied homemade mozzarella and ricotta to the neighborhood, but under the stewardship of Savino's great-grandson Lou, along with his brother Sal and sister Marie, DiPalo's has grown to become the top importer of Italian food products in New York. Lou won't sell it if he hasn't tasted it, and he doesn't expect you to buy it if you haven't tasted it, so every product in the store is hand-picked, sourced from traditional artisans throughout Italy, and every trip into the store is a taste education.
In 1998 Andrew Tarlow and Mark Firth inaugurated a restaurant renaissance in Williamsburg when they opened Diner with chef Caroline Fidanza. Caroline had learned to shop the Greenmarkets while working for Savoy's Peter Hoffman, so Diner's menu has always been built around what was at its seasonal best. The brief regular menu, including grass-fed steaks butchered and dry-aged in house, is supplemented by a long list of specials hand-written on a scroll of cash register tape, which in early March included a scrumptious house-corned beef hash under two perfectly poached local eggs.
Most people know of or have heard about the great beer bar in the East Village... it's true: d.b.a. has an excellent rotating selection of tapped and bottled beers, from the local avant-garde to the international classics. Look for chocolate stout from Brooklyn, cider from upstate, raspberry lambic from Belgium... and their ample selection of draft beers includes the display of which day the kegs were tapped.
Award-winning chef Tom Colicchio's Flatiron District Contemporary American is widely recognized as one of the city's top restaurants for impeccably sourced seasonal ingredients. The menu's strikingly minimalist dish descriptions (the names of single vegetables, meats and seafood are listed under categories such as "Roasted," "Braised," and "Sauteed") mirror the preparations themselves, which are seemingly simple and often perfectly executed. While it's a big-ticket dining destination, the food is served family-style, adding a touch of informality to the proceedings; N.B.

There's something different about the little neighborhood street festivals of summer: A communal block-party feel that connects people without overwhelming them. The Old South Gaylord Memorial Day Weekend Festival, going strong now for more than thirty years, represents all that and more, though what makes it work is really no secret.
"It's the diversity of artisans and vendors at the festival that people like," says fest spokesman Tony Hodes. "And it just seems like a relaxed, chilled-out way to spend Memorial Day weekend. It's not high pressure, even though there's a good amount of people there." This holiday fest has a way of catering directly to everyone -- neighbors, sightseers, dogs, kids on scooters with fairy wings -- while dealing out good entertainment and fun shopping and dining opportunities, both outside on the street and inside the shops and restaurants.
1000 block on S. Gaylord St., between Mississippi and Tennessee avenues
Denver, CO 80209
Category: Community Venues
Region: South Denver
The weekend starts off tonight at 6 p.m. with carnival games and a family-friendly outdoor screening of the original Footloose beginning at dusk (bring a blanket or rent a chair for $2); the festival proper kicks in tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and wraps up on Monday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., featuring a new fine-art pavilion, seventy vendor booths, kids' activities and live music throughout (acts include Coles Whalen and John Common, among others). The festival spreads out on the 1000 block of Old South Gaylord Street at Mississippi Avenue; get details at www.southgaylordstreet.com.

Visually very appealing, 8/10
The cooldown bar seems to be a bit too long. i would adjust the height to that of the hud. Furthermore, having all your information in the bottom part of the screen it seems strange to place the tooltip in the top left corner. Button arrangement could be a bit more streamlined. I really can't see very well what buffs you have there but i am sure there is the possibility to trim that to buffs you want to see (devotion aura for a mage?). And lastly the gap between your target/player/targettarget/etc frames and the two boxes on the left and right are not the same width. Aim for perfection!
Sadly i have to fit everything into a 1280x1024 screen
Solo, outfight:
25man raid, infight:
Changes since this screenshot:
-moved MT-frames over the omen frame (bottom left) and removed backdrop.
-filtered Flask of lesser resistance out of EBB and added it to the auracle flask tracker (stoneblood/resistance/rage)
-trimmed absored and resisted Parrot messages
-removed rank information from buffbars
-swapped standard nameplates of mobs with CaelNameplates and changed font to fit the general ui font.
The space to the right of the minimap is a "macro workspace". Since i didnt need any special macro for anub, there is nothing visible but one icon which belongs to an auracle debuff tracker. It shows missing debuffs on the target. In this case a missing demoshout/roar.

Tom was very reliable and attentive ! He knew exactly what we wanted out of our photos and how to capture that perfect moment! It's hard to trust someone to capture the most important day of your life, but he nailed it! We just got our wedding photos back and they are beautiful! He also shot our engagements and my bridals, which were also beautiful! We will definitely be using Tom again when we decide to start a family!

TomK did a great job with my engagement pictures and wedding pictures. He took a TON of pictures. I really loved that I got an awesome photo book, a large picture, the rights to all the photos, and more with his package. Every time I look at the pictures I am so happy. I can re-live the whole event through the pictures TomK took.

I just don't feel like I could write a good enough review to describe the experience we had with Tom and his team. Tom and Brandi took our engagements pictures in downtown Grapevine to help us capture where we would start our lives as a married couple, and they allowed us to wait until a month after the wedding to do the Bridals with my groom so we could do more couples shots in addition to my Bridals and not take up time on the wedding day. Tom and his wife, Linda, were great about communicating with us about what we wanted to be captured, coordinating times and dates, and how to view the pictures for our family and friends. We were also lucky enough to have their partner, Troy from Flash Frame Media, do our wedding video. I can say without a doubt that working with tomK was the very best investment we could have made for our wedding. They captured so many memories in a day that goes by in a flash with pictures that allow us to carry those moments with us for a lifetime! I would definitely recommend tomK Photography to any of my friends looking for a photographer they can trust!

TomK and his team did my daughter's Engagement, Bridals and Wedding pictures at The Willowood Chapel at Bells, Texas. Tom and his team gave us the most awesome treasure of photographs. He caught every special moment and love between my children. They were wonderful to work with, my daughter and son in law feel like he is a dear friend. They had so much fun, he is so creative and professional. Troy the videographer made our day come to life with so much love. Thank you to Tom, Linda, Troy and his team!

TomK and his associates were more professional, personable, and caring than we ever could have imagined!! He did bridal, engagement and wedding photos for us, as well as a bridal video. The results were spectacular! We will use Him, for all of our future events, for the rest of our lives. If you care about capturing an important moment, you MUST choose TomK. He and his wife are also some of the kindest people we have ever met- it was a privilege to share such a special time with them.

Tom & Linda were so incredible to work with. Linda is always very prompt & helpful in her responses. And Tom's laid back personality & flexibility made the process so much fun! My husband & I never had to worry that he would miss something, as we knew we could rely on Tom's expertise & artistic eye to capture our day on film! - Engagement: At the 1st location, we wanted to have the traditional romantic E-shots, but it was important to us that we incorporate our schnauzer as well. Tom was game for it all. He didn't try to control the shoot, but let our dog be a dog & captured the great moments in btwn. In Deep Ellum, Tom's creativity came out as he wasn't afraid to try different things utilizing the artistic backdrop as inspiration. As a result, he was able to capture my husband and I's personalities in some pretty amazing photos. - Bridals: Due to some uncontrollable circumstances, I ran about 30 min late. Obviously flustered, Tom calmed me down and made sure we got all of the shots in the time allotted, but also had fun in the process. The great thing about Tom is that he knows what he is looking for in a picture, and he will guide his clients to get great shots. - Wedding Day: Tom and his assistants were very prompt and after working with Tom for so long, we were so comfortable with him that it was no longer strange to have a camera around. Looking at the pics, it seemed as if Tom and his assistants were everywhere capturing all the great moments and yet, they weren't intrusive. - PhotoBooth: WHAT A GREAT ADDITION TO OUR WEDDING! Tom provides the props & the quality of pictures is great! Everyone loved it and it kept the kids occupied throughout the night. Seeing all of the pictures afterwards was pure hilarity! - We had a GREAT overall experience working with TomK Photography & would recommend them to EVERYONE! Going through the pictures, Tom captured the essence of our wedding and who we are as a couple. We loved working with them!

I cannot say enough good things about TomK Photography! Finding an amazing photographer was at the top of my priority list for my wedding, as photos are the only way to remember the amazing events of the day after all the excitement comes to an end! I cannot thank Tom and Linda enough for all that they did to help capture our big day! They traveled all of the way from TX to Wilmington, NC for our wedding, which meant so much to us. Tom and Linda were so great to work with, and they were helpful every step of the way. I had a few shots that were important to me to be captured, and Tom made sure every single one happened (even though I had completely forgotten about them that day)! They made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and the shots they got definitely show Tom's talent! I feel like the images capture our day so well, and looking back through them brings me right back to each and every moment. All of the photographs really tell the story of our day, and he did such an amazing job of getting every little detail! I have yet to order any prints because there are so many beautiful shots, and I haven't been able to choose which to print! One of my bridesmaids has ordered some, and they are wonderful quality! Tom's love for his work definitely shows in his product and the way in which he interacts with the wedding party! If you are looking for a photographer who is professional, willing to do whatever necessary to help a couple perfectly capture their day, and is amazing to work with then TomK is the one for you! I will forever be grateful for the gift they have shared with us!!

Dont book with Tom K photography….(hard to work with, and they will charge you for photo corrections. 1st set of engagement photos were horrible. I was so overwhelmed with the wedding planning and work that I didn't get a chance to do my bridal session, so I asked Tom if I could do it after the wedding & he said sure. I never scheduled my bridal session after the wedding because my husband and I were unhappy with the way some of our wedding pictures came out. Tom didn't even get some of the most important shots. For example, he didn't get a picture of my unity candle, no picture of our rings and hands together, no photo of me and my maid of honor, no picture of groom and best man, and the photos lacked the creativity that I wanted.
Come reception time I found out he forgot the photo booth that I requested. When I asked about it Tom raised his voice at me saying "well its not here" & then he said he would give us some kind of reimbursement and what he meant by that was he would upgrade our wedding album to the big heavy one. My husband and I didn't want that big and heavy book. We had already picked out the one we wanted. Its 9 months later & we still don't have a resolution.
They finally presented us with an online copy of our book so we could approve it and when we suggested changes they wanted to charge us. That's insane. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT BOOK TOM K PHOTOGRAPHY FOR WEDDING DAY PHOTOS.

Tom was wonderful to work with. He was so flexible, which was great because I had a hard time getting my dress in on time, but we managed to get my bridals done and get my photos back a mere two weeks before the wedding!
The wedding pictures were beautiful. I'm thrilled at how they turned out, and I couldn't be happier.
He has been great at responding to my millions of questions and got back to me very quickly.
I will definitely be recommending him to family and friends.

tomk was amazing to work with! He did our engagement and wedding photos, and everyone involved in our wedding had nothing but wonderful things to say. He was organized and on top of everything leading up to our big day, which was great given the stresses of planning a wedding. He also helped us stay on schedule throughout the entire wedding day. AND, of course, our photos were wonderful!

We worked with Tom K twice. Once for our engagement photos and ofcourse for the wedding. Both sets of photos were amazing. Tom captured out classic vintage style perfectly. The shots we have are completely timeless and totally breathtaking. Tom was extremely quick when getting back to us and always gave us a clear answer. Tom also traveled extremely far for both shoots and came completely prepared and was the epitome of a perfect professional. I'm extremely greatful Tom chose to work with us. We have tons of amazing pictures to remember our wedding. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Tom provided outstanding service for my wife and me. Our engagement pictures were exactly as we wanted, and Tom has many great locations that set an amazing backdrop for pictures. Tom was able to work with our family and friends, orchestrate great pictures during a very busy wedding, and captured moments that we did not even remember. Our photos were amazing and something we will hold on to for the rest of our lives. We are so happy we chose a professional quality photographer.

The Online Museum: A "Placeless" Space of the "Civic Laboratory" http://scholarworks.iu.edu/journals/index.php/mar/article/view/3187 Building on Tony Bennett's (1995) understanding of a museum as a "civic laboratory," this study advances this framework by researching a museum space in a virtual world. It shows that an online museum can be understood as a "placeless" space of a "civic laboratory" by analyzing visitor research methodologies that are utilized online. Through comparison of traditional museum-visitor research tools and methods with the ones that online museum spaces employ, this article seeks to demonstrate that the online museum environment is equipped with a plethora of tools that make it a laboratory-type research setting where visitor studies are conducted. The analysis reveals that the historical development of online museum-audience research has gone through methodological stages similar to those of traditional visitor research. Natalia Grincheva 2014-07-06 2014-07-06 8 1 1 21 10.14434/mar.v8i1.3187 The Sacred Gift: Donations from Private Collectors to Public Museums http://scholarworks.iu.edu/journals/index.php/mar/article/view/3099 The phenomenon of gifting from private collectors to museums has not yet been studied in depth. Prestigious art collections usually attract more attention than modest collections, which can also include other objects than artworks. The present analysis is concerned with both elite and popular collections and is illustrated with examples from various areas of the world, including Asia and the Pacific. Constituent parts of collections are seen as "semiophors" or carriers of meaning with a sacred dimension. They are set apart from ordinary objects. Moreover, through collecting, collectors can demonstrate their excellence in a competitive way. They not only rival one another, but sometimes compete with museums, and in such cases they may choose not to donate. On the other hand, museum directors and curators are not always keen to receive entire collections but may prefer to choose the best pieces and, in doing so, may injure the pride of generous donors. Donations to museums differ from bequests in wills to family members or close friends, in that they are given to the imagined community as a whole, which provides a sacred dimension to this kind of gift. Paul van der Grijp 2014-07-15 2014-07-15 8 1 22 44 10.14434/mar.v8i1.3099 Only the Voice of the Other: Science, Power, and Diversity's Revolt in the Museum—A Manifesto of Sorts http://scholarworks.iu.edu/journals/index.php/mar/article/view/3255 While the importance of including diverse perspectives in museum programming has received considerable attention in the cultural realm, the same cannot be said for environmental science topics. In science and natural history museums, exhibitions on issues such as global climate change and loss of biodiversity are frequently narrowly defined in relation to an equally narrow perception of what constitutes environmental science. Because the facts of science in museums are still largely told by science curators, the voices of non-scientists are largely absent on such issues. As museum professionals, we must work to ensure that a diversity of perspectives is represented on environmental issues in our museums and on the capacity of our publics to participate in the presentation of environmental topics. We must support the public's collective "power-to" (as John Holloway has termed it) have a voice in environmental programming. W.

Book Description:
A collaboration between an Israeli psychologist and a Palestinian school teacher. This highly original book recounts the surprisingly candid stories of three Palestinian mothers and their daughters.

Comfortable, quiet, family owned, Beacon Hill -
- c
- ChristianW Jul 30, 2012 06:41 AM
Arriving dinner time this evening in the city, Beacon Hill area-Liberty Hotel. Any suggestions with regard to a small friendly place where people will feed a hungry man well?
Try Antonio's-across from MGH on Cambridge St. It's small but the food isn't bad and I believe it's family run.
I'd opt for any of the many restaurants on Charles Street before heading to Antonio's, which is abysmal -- I remember a chicken Marsala featuring a colossal pile of lukewarm, barely cooked mushrooms in a watery sauce with overbooked pasta. Having eaten there a number of times with a "is it really as terrible as we remember?" attitude -- it is -- I'd avoid it.
Dining solo my suggestion would be the bar (or a table) at the Beacon Hill Hotel. It is small but lively, family-run and all in all a really nice place to have a drink and bite to eat.
re: C. Hamster
I think Beacon Hill Bistro would be ideal for what the OP is looking for.
re: hotoynoodle
Yes! I forgot Pierrot. Very different feel from Beacon Hill Bistro and maybe a bit heavy if it's hot but if you love traditional French this is a nice little spot.
Ok, Chowhounds did it again. I chose 75 Chestnut and indeed the walk, the service, the table, the food became a Red's home run. My server was so helpful. The mussels and stew- all about Boston. Now, for another evening. Thanks to you people who love food and the people who bring it it the table.
re: ChristianW
So glad you liked it and thanks for following up.
The trip was Boston was delightful. Inasmuch as the time was spent working for the most part, there were two other opportunites to reach out. One took place Wednesday night at 100 year old Fenway Park. Only my 2nd major league game, for me the real fun was history, a sausage dog and two Monsta IPA's. It was a good time with lots of smiling faces.
On the way out of town, I caught lunch at Toscano's on Charles. Simple, clean, friendly really frames a nice lunch. Adding to those good things a fresh salad and an unpretentious pizza with a very crisp crust summed up one more chance to thank Chowhound for helping make Boston a favorite city.
re: ChristianW
Glad you enjoyed Tocano's. I've been going there since they opened which is I think 30 years.

Kicking smoking habits may be harder for younger smokers.
That is according to a report from the centers for disease control and prevention.
The report could provide some insight into why young adult smokers are more likely to be unsuccessful in their attempts to quit.
More than 88% of young smokers tried to quit by cutting back on the number of cigarettes smoked in a day.
56% tried to quit by simply not buying cigarettes.
Neither method is recommended by the US Public Health Service.
Few young smokers tried the recommended methods such as using nicotine replacement products or talking to a health professional.

SEPTA uses a jet engine to melt snow and ice on the tracks of its rail lines.
The winter of 2014 was relentless, with its deep freezes, ice storms, record snowfall, torrential rain and mudslides. The polar vortex was a "hot" topic of conversation across the country and we became intimately familiar with the new phenomenon of naming winter storms — Janus, Nika and Quintus, anyone?
The end of the season will be welcomed by transportation organizations across the country, especially in Philadelphia, where the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority's (SEPTA) service was impacted by 16 storms and weeks of extremely frigid temperatures.
Proactive measures helped SEPTA "weather" the intense winter. Ahead of snow and ice storms, SEPTA twice detoured more than half of its bus routes that operate along roads notoriously prone to weather-related problems.RELATED: "Arctic temperatures wreak havoc on Chicago rails"
On Feb. 13, SEPTA suspended all bus service from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and, along with Regional Rail service, from 10 p.m. until the Feb. 14 morning rush hour.
"Conditions were too hazardous for us to safely operate our vehicles," said SEPTA Assistant GM, operations, Ron Hopkins. "We couldn't risk having vehicles full of passengers stranded for hours during the storms in areas we wouldn't be able to reach with our service trucks."
Pulling buses off the streets also gave municipalities the opportunity to plow streets without having to navigate around the vehicles.
SEPTA staff monitor the snow's impact on the system.
In addition to detouring and interrupting service, SEPTA brought in personnel to work around the clock at its Headquarters Command Center and in the field to monitor conditions. Mechanical staff at bus depots and rail yards were able to address vehicle equipment concerns, while track inspectors, maintenance crews, signal maintainers and power crews staged at various locations throughout the system were available to attend to issues quickly. By deploying extra staff, SEPTA was in the best possible position to quickly identify problems and take corrective action to minimize the impact to riders.
SEPTA's Market-Frankford and the Broad Street lines — its two busiest routes — operated with train service overnight, rather than switch to regular Night Owl Bus service, to keep additional buses off potentially icy roads and help with efforts to continue service on those vital transit arteries.
Trains were stored in tunnels, to be out of the elements and ready for the next day's commute. SEPTA also ran pilot trains on its Regional Rail commuter lines and trolley routes overnight to help prevent ice from accumulating on overhead wires.
The transit system's engineering, construction and maintenance crews trim trees on the Lansdale/Doylestown Line during the Feb. 5 storm.
While the proactive plan helped SEPTA preserve service, the weather did wreak havoc on its budget — as it did transit organizations across the country. In just a matter of weeks, a modest surplus of $200,000 was a multi-million dollar deficit — a word that is taboo to SEPTA Chief Financial Officer Richard Burnfield. The transit system has had a balanced budget for 14 consecutive years.
SEPTA had allotted for $4 million for winter costs. By Feb. 25, the agency had spent almost $11 million on labor (in-house and contracted); equipment rentals; and materials such as salt, traction motors, overhead wires, insulators and bus pneumatics. School and business closures caused by snow and ice led to lower ridership (down 6% and 8% in January and February, respectively), and therefore, reduced revenue.
"Deficit is not part of my vocabulary," Burnfield said. "We will have to take a hard look at our operating budget for the rest of the fiscal year to see how we can bring it back to a balanced status."

The capture of Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, leader of the Sinaloa drug cartel, was celebrated on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border. But Guzman's arrest will not change the grim reality of Mexico's drug war: drug-related violence kills over 10,000 people a year in Mexico as cartels battle each other and civilians fall victim to the crossfire. A combination of bribery and intimidation has allowed cartels to infiltrate law enforcement and government at every level. The U.S.-led war on drugs, despite soaking up billions of dollars, has only brought about more war. It has done little, if anything, to stem the flow of drugs.
From modest, entrepreneurial beginnings, cartels now spar over an illicit drug trade worth hundreds of billions every year. In 2006, Mexican President Felipe Calderon declared war on the cartels, and violence exploded to its current levels. The struggle that has played out since then rewards the most violent, ruthless groups.
Two cartels, Sinaloa and Los Zetas, dominate Mexico's drug trade, while others linger below, capitalizing on important choke points, and allying with one of the two giants for protection and use of smuggling routes.
Even if El Chapo has lived his last day as a cartel kingpin, the system that supports the cartels and the horrifying violence they commit is entirely unchanged.
A clear first step to help bring Mexico out of this quagmire is to legalize cannabis throughout the Americas. Estimates vary on how much cartels depend on marijuana sales, but they range from 30-50% of total revenue, according to Sean Dunagan, a member of Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (LEAP) and former intelligence research specialist at the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency. Legalizing marijuana would take a giant chunk out of cartel profits, which would greatly reduce their power, he said. Of the drugs seized at the U.S.-Mexico border, Jamie Haase, a LEAP member who worked as a special agent for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, says "97% of what we see is marijuana."
