Google, Schmidt, and the Gray Lady Resuscitator™
Google is preparing a post-print-age online news service that will feed you the "high-quality news" you want - even when you don't realize you want it. At least, that's the word from Sharon Waxman, a former correspondent with the The New York Times and The Washington Post now writing for The Wrap, a Hollywood news blog. …
Nothing new
"that will feed you the "high-quality news" you want - even when you don't realize you want it"
Isn't that the exact same thing as all of that "portal" nonsense a few years ago?
"sink in a cesspool of drivel"
That's already happened: Twitter, Wikipedia, pretty much every result of a Google search....
"Why doesn't the newspaper know what I read yesterday?..."
Why would I want that? People shouldn't be afraid of their newspapers etc.
Cor, I didn't know I needed it. Thanks Google
"Google will unveil a "system that will bring high-quality news content to users without them actively looking for it.""
Right-o, if I didn't look for it, I won't read it. So much out there to ignore and now we'll have even more to miss. Not exactly an 'information provider' more an 'info pimp', a 'news dealer'.
I get a similar service on the Wii, local news I never knew I needed. meh
I particularly love this Waxman quote
Writing of the dense crowd of Hollywood and Meeja celebs, present at the party , she writes:
"A single suicide bomber would have ended filmed entertainment for the rest of the decade."
What? A whole 19 months? That's pretty monumental, given the vapid and ephemeral nature of this modern age. Just think: in 19 month's time, we may have begun paying off the first ten percent of our monumental debt (assuming we haven't all died of pig flu). The thought that we might have to do so without Jim Berkus or Tom Freston is... Well, it's terrifying, isn't it?
4 decades on and still trying to make this one pay
In the late 1960s CBS did a series called "The 21st Century" narrated by Walter Cronkite. One of its items was the individual newspaper. Printed by essentially a fax machine in your home and personalised to your interests.
This one is usually pitched by AI types as a demonstration of intelligent assistance.
I'd love to get a set of these on DVD. It should make hilarious viewing. I don't think it mentions the idea of mobile phones *anywhere*.
Do they have any ads that aren't 'Premium'?
Is any service they deliver not 'Quality'?
Or 'Essential'?
A flood of shit presented as a bath of gold.
Who would this story have got through to?
Sharon Waxman blah, blah, blah Eric Schmidt blah blah mingling with Jeffrey Katzenberg blah blah and Ron Meyer blah blah at Arianna Huffington's blah blah.
Is this name drop paragraph included as an example of the drivel that the Googly bloke vp thingy is referring to?
Or are you praticing for a new job with Hell! oh!!
Schmidt wants to dumb-down the public?
Let me get this straignt -- in Eric Schmidt's brave new world of goonews, readers will only see news that their past reading history suggests that they may want to read? In other words, if America suddenly institutionalizes torture in its war against terror, no one will read about it on Google -- simply because the issue has not been on the American political agenda prior to that war?
There are certainly problems with a lack of objectivity in mainstream media, due to various economic, political, and ideological pressures, as well as secrecy in high places. But putting readers in a box and feeding them only what they prefer to read is a huge step backwards. This might be okay for mindless entertainment media, but not for news media. Taken to the extreme, it would make everyone oblivious to global current events, and unqualified to vote in a democratic society.
We know that Schmidt pushes this because the ads alongside the news will be highly targeted and make Google richer than it already is. But for Schmidt to pretend that it's also a step forward for society is absurd and potentially dangerous.
Faster Horses...
The future of media will not be anything that looks like the current structures...
A lesson worth remembering is that at the turn of the 20th century, people had a transportation problem...and the solution turned out not to be a "faster horse"...but a Ford.
And one should note that the Ford didn't arise out of the "horse industry's" R&D efforts, nor the "Horse Industry Revitalization Act" nor the horse industry's attempts to experiment with new Business Models.
I think the future of the media business will look as different as Ford and Toyota's operations look from horse traders and blacksmiths.
What's historically given value to editorial content is the relative scarcity of distribution versus readers (not the Kindle kind). Newspapers have historically enjoyed natural localized economic monopolies that allowed each of them to exercise monopoly control over the amount of content (and advertising) they allowed into their local marketplace.
Monopoly constraint of distribution and supply will always lead to prices (and profits) significantly above open market rates. Newspapers then built costly organizational structures commensurate with that stream of monopoly profits (think AT&T in the 1970's).
Unfortunately the Internet came along and changed all the rules!
The dynamics of content replication and distribution on the Internet destroys this artificial constraint of distribution and re-aligns advertising (and subscription) prices back down to competitive open market rates. The often heard complaint of Internet ad rates being "too low" is inverted...the real issue is that traditional ad rates have been artificially boosted for enough decades for participants to assume this represents the long-term norm.
An individual reader now has access to essentially an infinite amount of content on any given topic or story. All those silos of isolated editorial content have been dumped into the giant Internet bucket. Once there, any given piece of content can be infinitely replicated and re-distributed to thousands of sites at zero marginal costs. This breaks the back of old media's monopoly control of distribution and supply.
To paraphrase Nietzsche, "God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him with the Internet..."
The core problem for the newspapers is that in a world of infinite supply, the ability to monetize the value in any piece of editorial content will be driven to zero...infinite supply pushes price levels to zero!
What this implies is that no one can marshal enough market power to monetize the value of content in the face of such an infinite supply and such massively fragmented distribution. Pay-walls, lawsuits and ill conceived legislation won't allow the monopoly conditions to be re-constructed because only ONE VERSION each story has to leak out to start the cycle all over again.
Another way to think about this is that once data becomes publicly visible on the Internet, its monetizable value rapidly dissipates to zero.
This is at the core of why Google can extract $25B a year from the economy without creating ANY content...what they create is meta-data about content (which CAN be monetized)...and all that meta-data remains non-visible. Only the results of decisions based on that meta-data by their search and advertising platforms is made publicly visible.
The lesson is that Google DOES NOT monetize other people's content...it monetizes its OWN meta-data. This is certainly one path to making the news profitable...not search per se...but various other approaches to the monetization of meta-data that's within the reach of publishers.
So the exquisite irony is this:
In the future, the only content that will have monetizable value is content that no one is ever allowed to read! (i.e. the meta-data)
There are certainly ways to make online news profitable...and many of us are working to develop such approaches...but I can assure you they don't involve inventing a "faster horse"...

WASHINGTON -- Jimi Jamison, lead singer of the rock band Survivor, died Sunday. He was 63.
Rolling Stone reports that Jamison joined the group in 1984 and left in 1988, but not before singing on such hits as "The Moment of Truth," from the movie "The Karate Kid"; "Is This Love"; and "Burning Heart," which was featured in the soundtrack to "Rocky IV."
His solo song "I'm Always Here" was the theme song for the TV series "Baywatch."
Jamison succeeded original lead singer David Bickler, who sang on the band's biggest hit, "Eye of the Tiger," Rolling Stone says.
In the 1990s, there was conflict over who owned the rights to the name Survivor, Rolling Stone reports, but all parties eventually made up and recently the band performed with both singers.
The band last played in Morgan Hill, California, on Saturday, Rolling Stone says. The band was scheduled to play again Sept. 12 in Parker, Colorado.

Survivor is very shocked & saddened by the passing of our brother Jimi Jamison. Our thoughts,love & prayers go out to his friends & family.— Survivor Official (@survivorband) September 2, 2014

MONDAY, April 7, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Pregnant women at high risk for the serious condition called preeclampsia should take low-dose aspirin every day after their first trimester, according to a new draft recommendation by an influential U.S. panel of experts.
Daily low-dose aspirin (81 milligrams) in middle and late pregnancy can significantly reduce the occurrence of preeclampsia among these women. And it can lower the risk of preterm birth or low birth weight resulting from the pregnancy-related condition, according to the recommendation by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force.
"Preeclampsia is one of the more common causes of serious health problems for both the expectant mother and their baby," said Dr. Michael LeFevre, chairman of the task force, and vice chair of family and community medicine at the University of Missouri School of Medicine. "At least for pregnant women at high risk for preeclampsia, a low dose of aspirin taken daily can help prevent the condition and improve the outcome for both mother and child."
The evidence review upon which the recommendations are based was published online April 7 in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine.
Preeclampsia is a complex condition that occurs in pregnant women and involves an increase in blood pressure and excess protein in the urine after 20 weeks of pregnancy. About 4 percent of all pregnancies in the United States are affected by preeclampsia, according to information from the journal.
It's important to prevent preeclampsia because the only treatment once it takes hold is delivery, which can pose risks to the baby if performed before 34 weeks of gestation. Preeclampsia is responsible for more than one-third of the serious health problems that occur among pregnant women, and 15 percent of preterm births, the journal noted.
Pregnant women who contract preeclampsia can suffer potentially life-threatening organ damage or stroke. Unborn fetuses grow too slowly as the condition robs them of oxygen and nutrients, leading to low birth weight babies, preterm birth or stillbirth, the researchers explained.
"The baby grows too slowly, so you get a small baby, or you have to deliver the baby early to save the mother's life because it can lead to stroke," said Jillian Henderson, lead author of the evidence review and an investigator at the Kaiser Permanente Center for Health Research in Portland, Ore.
LeFevre said women at high risk of preeclampsia include those in the following categories:
have had preeclampsia in previous pregnancies,
have high blood pressure or diabetes prior to pregnancy,
are having twins, triplets or even more in a multi-birth pregnancy.
A doctor also might recommend daily aspirin use in women who have a combination of two or more moderate risk factors, LeFevre said. These include women who are:
having their first baby,
older than 35 or black.
Daily low-dose aspirin use reduced the risk of preterm birth by 14 percent and of slow fetal growth by 20 percent, according to the new review of the latest medical data. And it led to a 24 percent reduction in the overall occurrence of preeclampsia, the review found.
In addition, there's no evidence of potential harm in daily low-dose aspirin use for pregnant women at high risk of preeclampsia, study author Henderson said.
However, any expectant mother should consult with her doctor before beginning a daily aspirin regimen, LeFevre added.
"We certainly don't want women to go out and start taking low-dose aspirin without talking with their prenatal provider about whether they are at high enough risk to begin taking aspirin," he said. "This is not something women should do on their own. This is something they should do in consultation with their health care provider."
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force is an independent, volunteer panel of national experts that makes evidence-based recommendations about preventive medical services such as health screenings, counseling and medications.
The draft recommendation on aspirin treatment for preeclampsia has been posted for public comment at www.uspreventiveservicestaskforce.org. Comments can be submitted from April 8 to May 5.
Henderson said the new review echoes earlier research and evidence reviews that have supported low-dose aspirin to prevent preeclampsia in high-risk mothers.
"It's not a big difference from what's been found earlier," she said.

Our guide Wendy did a really nice job. She was very informative, very pleasant, personable, gracious and she kept asking us if we wanted more information. It was especially nice to have it be a private tour for just our family. Westminster Abbey is beautiful and she did a nice job of giving us additional detail about the sites we saw between there and the National Art Museum, more than we had gotten our a driving tour covering some similar spots. She made sure we got to see all of the most famous artists and paintings in the galleries. I would recommend her and this tour to anyone.
Doing what: Private Tour: London Walking Tour
We enjoyed using the London Pass and it definitely helped at sights like Westminster Abbey, where the line was very long. I made the mistake, however of overspending because I'd also booked the trip to Windsor, Bath and Stonehenge and paid for that as well. Make sure you only buy the Pass for the days you will be in London sightseeing. Big expensive mistake on my part.
Doing what: London Pass
We fully enjoyed our all-day tour of London, and highly recommend it to people who don't have a lot of time to navigate the city's major landmarks on their own. For us, the tour was the perfect way to get acquainted with the city before delving in to the more specific sights. Our guide, Norma, was delightful!! Unfortunately, we did not know ahead of time that Westminster Abbey is closed to visitors during mass on Sundays, so we'll have to go back another time.
Doing what: London in One Day Sightseeing Tour
Excellent experience. Really enjoyed the tour of Westminster Abbey and the National Gallery. Alison was an outstanding guide.
Doing what: Private Tour: London Walking Tour
My sister and I took this tour and we both LOVED it! We rode through Kensington and Hyde parks, and past Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square, Westminster Abbey, and The Houses of Parliament. A lot of ground is covered, but it is flat ride, and 90% off the roads. We saw so much more than we expected. The guide was very knowledgable, and fun. It was a great way to wind down our fabulous time in London.

Please don't miss this opportunity to see London. I made the mistake of buying the one day and should have spent a few bucks etra for two days. Cruise around the first day to just look and see then use it to get on and off to see Westminster Abbey,St Pauls,Tower of London, Hyde Park,The London eye. There is no waiting and the buses are so frequesnt. Very well run. Take the Red line. Love this so much also did it in Paris!

Sheila, our tour guide, was great - she got us to the best spot for viewing the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace! Our visit to Westminster Abbey and St Pauls was memorable and the Tower of London where we saw the crown jewels and other historic features was informative and enjoyable even though it was on the hottest day in London for some years. We were well informed at all times and the boat trip on the Thames completed a great day. We would never have seen so many of the sights of London had we not opted for this tour. Thank you !!

Caught the bus from Marble Arch to St Paul's Church passing through Piccadilly Circus and Trfalgar Square and then walked from there to the Tower of London which was a highlight. Caught the cruise from there to Westminster for Big Ben and Westminster Abbey. Walked from there to Buckingham Palace and cut through Hyde Park to get to Hotel. Managed to pack a lot in one day.

I highly recommend getting a London Pass - it was easy to use, and you save so much money! Just plan your day(s) to maximize how many places you can visit. I had a 2 day pass, and managed to visit the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Westminster Abbey, Jewel Tower and had a river cruise on day 1. On day 2, I saw St. Paul's Cathedral, Hampton Court Palace and Southwark Cathedral. There are discounts at some of the gift shops too! It was kind of nice to see all of the main places in 2 days as well, so we had the rest of the time to visit free things like galleries and parks and go shopping. It's perfect if you like to plan ahead - it's totally worth it!

Excellent tour. Both Westminster Abbey and the National Gallery are well worth visiting.
Doing what: Private Tour: London Walking Tour
This was a wonderful tour. It visited all the sites in London that we have heard so much about and are so magnificent. We saw the changing of the guard at Buckingham palace. Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament were so impressive and the Tower of London just as impressive and crown jewels are a must see thing, out of this world. The ride on the Eye topped this tour off. The sites from the Eye are breathtaking.

London Pass briilliant, no big queues. Windsor castle beautiful, The Royal Mews, Churchill War Rooms, Westminster Abbey, Eton College, British Museum all very interesting and well worth a visit. We also had travel on our pass and that makes life so much easier in London for getting about. This is the second time I have purchased the pass while staying in London and I would certainly do it again.
Doing what: London Pass
I highly recommend the London Pass and Travel Card combo. We only had 3 days in London and bought the 2 day Pass along with the Card. We were able to visit both the Wimbleldon and Wembley Stadiums, Tower Bridge, Tower of London, Shakespeare Theater, St Paul's Cathedral, Tate Modern, but unfortunately, there was a riot, so we did not make it to Westminster Abbey.
The underground and double decker buses were very easy to fgure out with a map. If you are staying by Kings Cross Station- you can take this train to Heathrow Airport ( it takes about 1 hour) so make sure you give yourself enoght timeSan Francisco.
A very satisfied customer from San Francisco.

A great way of seeing London especially on a 7 day pass. You get a hop on/hop off bus trip and a hop on/hop off ferry trip included so remember that if you are booking other things. Also all museums are free so it is not worth it if that is all you're going to see. The London Eye and Westminster Abbey are also not included. But despite this we got excellent value from this card and would recommend it. Buying an Oyster card may be cheaper than using the transport option included.

This was a great tour and we saw a lot in a day. Most of the morning was spent in the bus seeing some of the sights like Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Whitehall, Downing Street, Trafalgar Square, Prince Albert's memorial and the Victoria and Albert museum, Harrods and more. Then we went to Buckingham Palace for the changing of the guard. Our expert guide Richard told us where to stand for the best view and great pictures. After lunch it was on to St Paul's Cathedral. Amazing! The wisteria was in bloom along one wall on our way in. The stained glass, the ceilings, the dome, the crypt - all fascinating. It is a Must See. Our next stop was the Tower of London with it's gory history, the ravens and their story and of course the crown jewels. Our boat cruise on the Thames ended the day with great views of Big Ben and the London Eye.

2. Decide what you want to grow. Grow your favorite veggies and herbs, or grow the ingredients to some of your favorite foods.
3. Buy seeds.The Emergency Essentials Heirloom Seeds are a great way to get started. These heirloom seeds are non-hybrid and open pollinating. That means you'll be able to harvest your own unique seeds for next year! Available in a large can with 17 varieties, or the boxed combo shown below, which includes 10 varieties. Click here to make your selection.

Lauralee Hensley | March 24, 2013
Well this year I'm going to get some big sheets of white gauze to put over my plants when the sun is much too hot, so I won't get burn spots on the veggies while they are growing. The University Extension Office Gardening Class I took suggested it, as they'd been having to do the same thing, because last year leaves were even getting burned by the sun as well as the vegetables and some fruits. That's what happens when droughts are in your area, you have to plan for a way to cool down the plants some, while still letting some of the sun in.
beprepared | March 25, 2013
Hi Lauralee -- thanks for the great suggestion. Did you see NOAA's Spring 2013 Outlook? They're saying drought conditions will continue. Thanks also for following us on Twitter and for the retweets!

With a collection of high-tech suits, gadgets and cutting-edge vehicles on hand, players are able to step into the unique LEGO Batman universe to bring super villains to justice ? or, as the villains, to run amok in Gotham City.
Product came fast and as described. Game is very fun for casual gamers and children.
What a fantastic price! Thank you so much! I can finally play a game with my boys!
I liked the game, a little young, but what I was most impressed about is Overstock. I compared prices, for this game, I could not find it under 45$. *****, I think it was $***** total. How simple the order process was and how quickly the item came. I will always go back to overstock for everything and recommend it to anyone who will listen
I was lucky enough to catch a really great special on this game for HALF THE PRICE and the only reason why I caught it was because I signed up for the daily email specials and promotions. I purchased the game about two weeks before Christmas and it arrived in just a week! I order from Overstock often and have never had any problems. The Batman Lego game is very cool and a lot of fun to play. If you get stuck on the first level you can always go online for hints and direction. It's just as if you were playing with Lego's in real life. You can build on existing Lego blocks within the level to reach other levels or new "suits". It's really fun with two players because Batman and Robin are a team throughout the game, but if it's just you playing you have the option to switch back and forth between the two characters with just a click on the controller. Batman and Robin have different powers and capabilities so it's fun to tag-team on the villains. The villains are also cool because they look and behave much like the ones in the comic books. It's not for all ages because you have to be able to understand the rules and commands that are given to you throughout the game. I highly recommend this game and I highly recommend ordering anything from Overstock because they are so easy to work with and very reliable!
We have tried several other PS3 and PS2 video games which were supposed to be for young kids but ended up too difficult for our five-year-old son to play so we would always end up playing the games for him through the difficult parts, but while Lego Batman is challenging it is easy enough for young children to play the full game by themselves. Very entertaining with cool graphics. The best part is unlocking other characters like Batgirl and Nightwing that you can play in Freeplay once you have played through a level. Great price at Overstock - the local game store had it for about $20 more. Great Value.

- Noisty but the food was very good.SammyDined on 11/15/2014The service was hot and cold - sometime very attentive, other times I was twiddling my thumbs waiting for the waiter to appearSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice Restaurant - Food AverageTimCDined on 11/9/2014We went at 8:15 on a Sunday night. The restaurant was completely empty except for the bar. We decided to grab a table at the bar The restaurant looks nice and has some very cool outdoor seating when the weather is right. It appears to be an upscale place The service from the bar was really quick and attentive. They had a good beer/wine/cocktail list. The menu was fairly standard for this type of restaurant. Nothing to make them stand out. I got some jambalaya pasta. It was just OK. For some reason they peel the entire shrimp except for the tail. I'm not sure why they do that. It's messy to have to reach in and pull the tail off. I'd rather they just peel the entire shrimp. My GF's burger was bland and dry. Overall, just OKSpecial Features:
- Service was great but thats allNoVaFoodieVIPDined on 11/7/2014First time and was disappointed. Bar is too small so had to sit in deserted dining room. Food was okay. Special i saw on website apparently doesn't actually exist. Shouldn't be allowed to have brewery in their name. Server was great. Gave his best effort.
- . It was OK for a quick beerDCPrincessDined on 10/24/2014Everything looked great - but the food was not very memorable, and the ahi nachos were very over rated. The beer list was great - and the sampler was really good. The bar was very busy, but oddly the restaurant was not, and for a restaurant that was barely half full, the service was pleasant but slow.
- Always a pleasureMikeVIPDined on 10/24/2014Food and service are always good. A pleasant family dinner. The menu might be getting a little tired.Special Features:
- Good burgers, good beer selectionBobbiDined on 10/22/2014A good place for a burger plus they had a decent beer menu. Also, to our surprise, they had live music. An oasis in the area.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Needs to Step It UpNotusuallyTHATpersonDined on 10/21/2014The V has great potential, and has improved a bit since they first opened; the outside area is really nice and great for happy hours. The food and location are good. The service is lacking quite a bit; so much so that most of my team will probably never return. The service was slow; could have been short-staffed or because of the private party-doesn't much matter. Someone at our table asked for a substitution, they said it was fine, but brought out her food and said, 'sorry, we're out of that', yet they still charged her for the substitute. My order was wrong, but since it had taken so long to get the food, I didn't have time to return it. The prices are high, esp. for the quality of service.
- Find another restaurantGiataVIPDined on 9/16/2014Very, very disappointing service! The food lacked originality and quality.
- Go big or go homeUniquitousDined on 9/11/2014Dined here with my wife and a friend. I ordered the beef short rib from the entree list, my wife got a burger, and my friend got a salad. I found the entree to be just absolutely great. Tender, delicious, and well presented. My wife's burger was just that, a burger. Ditto my friend's salad. Neither were particularly impressed. From this I gather that the chef's focus is on the entrees, with generic stuff like burgers and salads getting short shrift.Special Features:
- Family DinnerRStarDined on 9/6/2014Was looking for a last minute restaurant on Saturday for the family. The V is always good and they had a reservation that was the right time. I was surprised the service was not so good (although the food was) Two things, they had no olives for cocktails.... I asked for a pickle and they brought out a whole pickle spear - which I cut up and used. Also, my son loves Pasta with red sauce, which we ordered. About 10 minutes later they came back and told us they had no red sauce - I pointed to an entrée that had pomodoro and they said - oh yes, they could use that... disaster averted, but really, who told this waiter they did not have any red sauce? The special Rib Eye was great and would definitely go againI would recommend this to a friend.
- OMG. Designed for quiet & fab foodShushYallDined on 8/29/2014Who knew? Ashburn has this fantastic eatery tucked away in which they have actually **DESIGNED IN** ambience for conversation and food enjoyment. WHat a concept. Bucking the trend of "vibrant and lively" (i.e. deafening), the V Eatery has accoustic-dampening tiles over every table and booth. You and your guests can actually enjoy a conversation without shouting. You can ooh, aah and comment over the fantastic beers and to-die for food. Yes, the food it that good. You can enjoy the friendly wait staff and get to know Gabriel, the GM. Do so. He's great! We had the risotto with salmon and the braised short ribs and were in heaven with every bite. The food arrived piping hot and fast.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Still Enjoying the VReynoldsanVIPDined on 8/14/2014Although I'm not some one who frequents bars, I found this one that I would return. Not to dark and enough spaace to allow wlaking around and meeting with friends. Especially nice that I can bring my wife or some friends and not feel like I need to put on amor or a bib for the kids. Would like to see them rotate the menu a little more frequently. Thehy have some speicalities such as the Tuna on flatbread, more of those types make for perfect matches with a great beer list. Just a not of caution, don't try a business outside at lunch, its along the flight path at Dulles. But outside is the place to be for anything else.Special Features:
- Good food ... Service lackingUswineguyDined on 8/10/2014Went for dinner on a Sunday night.... Restaurant was empty, bar had decent amount of business. Our server was horrible... Waited long time to be greeted, longer for drinks. Placed orders, salads came out with entrees. The one thing I will give the server.... She picked up on my displeasure and didn't charge us for the salads. That said.... The food was great... Beer was good! I'll go again.... Hopefully service improves!!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Disappointing VenueGCMamaDined on 8/2/2014Formerly a favorite, this time the V Eatery was disappointing. Even with an advance reservation, our party of 8 could not be accommodated at one table because they had a party of 12 that needed the large table. So they seated us at two separate tables, but didn't move the tables together! When we left the restaurant, the party of 12 had still not arrived. My favorite, Savannah Shrimp, was served over spaghetti instead of the rice I was expecting. Our waiter had to leave and wanted to close out the bill before the meal was completed. The second waiter showed us the dessert menu from which several of us picked a Lemoncello cake. Well, they were out of it, so we chose Key Lime pie instead, but what arrived was a lime cake.Special Features:
- The following 180 reviews are from the The V Restaurant and Brewery reviews archive.
- Good VibediningMomDined on 7/26/2014The restaurant has a good vibe and nice decor. Outdoor space is nice, just to bad the view is of a parking lot. Food was very tasty and they welcomed substitutions, which was great. The bad was we felt rushed even though there was no wait. Our entrees came out at the same time as out appetizers....and we would have like to relax and take our time. Server was at the table far to often to take our orders and check on us, would have been better if she checked once and then sat back. The staff is friendly and flexible, we will return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- 3rd time, not a charmashburnEaterDined on 7/19/2014This was our third time dining here, and likely our last. The first time here, the food was great, good service. The second time, we got stale bread (which was brought to us after we got our entrees). The third time (this past weekend), the beef shortribs were dry and stringy, the "pork pops" appetizer was tasty, but overcooked and dry, and the bread was again brought out well after the appetizers.Special Features:
- Continues to impressReynoldsanVIPDined on 7/15/2014As a a long time resident, I've witnessed plenty of restaurants that failed at this location. This owner has learned his audience and location well and it's been a hit with the crowd I travel with. Nice mix of events and sitting outside on a late night makes you forget about that bad week you had.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food so so, service not greatCathamasuVIPDined on 7/13/2014We've been to this restaurant a few times and the good is ok. We live in the area and want to cater to local places. The last time was the worst experience. We went for brunch. My husband and I both ordered entrees with sides of home fries. I asked for salt which for some reason was not on any of be tables. The server took about 10 minutes to come back and then said "they didn't bring you any salt?" I don't know who this mysterious "they" was but I figured getting salt was not a two man job. She never brought any salt. We had our 2 year old with us and it took another 20 mins to get & pay our tab. Salt isn't a huge deal but when it's coupled with mediocre food (at best) and otherwise bad service, it's bad news.Special Features:
- Just okayKD1234567Dined on 7/12/2014Service was slow! It wasn't busy, so we thought our waiter could have been more attentive. Very friendly, just slow. The food was bland, but perhaps I ordered the wrong thing (summer risotto with salmon). We won't go back.
- great for dinnerCDUBDined on 7/11/2014great food / great service! Recommended for family dinner or date night.Special Features:
- Good times for dinnerOmnomnomDined on 7/11/2014Seated quickly. Outside looked fun with cushions and tables, but we sat inside. Great decor, fun music playing. Only downside, my friend's salad came without the tomatoes, cucumbers, and pickled veg (it was just lettuce, meat, and dressing). The problem was raised and quickly addressed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- a Nice SurpriseRickDined on 7/11/2014Had lunch with a close friend. Food very good (good size servings) and decor very nice. The outside temp was quite warm so did not take advantage of outside tables but they looked quite nice a small group of friends to celebrate a Friday. Plan to return with a group later this summer.Special Features:
- Good food at reasonable pricesMandLDined on 7/10/2014We had a coupon and had eaten here before so knew we would love it. Food is expertly prepared with generous portions. It was ladies night so the bar was full of people enjoying the atmosphere but was a little noisy. The wait staff were attentive and polite. The decor is modern. Though they did not have any of their own brews on tap, the variety of beer was good. We recommend this restaurant for anyone.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointingsirbrianDined on 6/27/2014Hosts are friendly and accommodating. Ambience is nice both inside and out (aside from the techno music playing in an attempt to be hip like their "The W" copycat name). Beer selection is good, but they don't brew anything so they're no "brewhouse." Ordered an appetizer, salads and entrees. Salads came out then 5 minutes later entrees by runner who said the app was coming out soon. Waiter admitted he forgot to enter. When I said forget it he said he'd take it off the bill and box it up to go. He never did. Also, my wife never got her after dinner drink. I guess he knew he screwed up and gave up on us. Although the food was good overall, the Savannah Shrimp had diced tomatoes not sun dried tomatoes. Sad the chef doesn't know the difference.
- Poor serviceNukeladyDined on 6/15/2014We went for the first time after purchasing a Groupon a few months ago. While the hangar steak was great, the cod was a bit bland and needed salt, which was not present on any tables. The desserts were mediocre at best. The service, not good at all. Our waiter took the Groupon code in the beginning and then when we got our check it was not on there so he had to get our groupon code again after we asked about it. The manager was difficult for staff to find. Finally after the waiter found him he came over to speak with us, we pointed out we were first timers and not impressed. After comping one dessert, they also gave us a gift card to invite us back. I'm not sure we will use it but the thought was nice. Maybe we will try a brunch.
- The Jury is Still outNYVAFoodieDined on 6/15/2014My second time there within two weeks, food was good but both times I was there with my toddler and the food took a long time to come out. Food had good flavor, french toast was very good, but the service was lacking. On father's day we were there with two other families, they were not crowded but yet the service suffered. They were slow to refill the endless mimosa,which is an extra charge, when we inquired, the were out or champagne. Once our food finally came, it was cold, I order shrimp and grits and had to return them. Once again service was slow. I spoke with the manager, after hesitating and going to check with the bar tender, he removed the mimosa bar from our tickets. I will give them another try, maybe without my toddler.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- SMMedicVIPDined on 6/15/2014The mimosa experience (bottomless option) was nice - except they ran out of champagne. It is evident the place is new, as the server was just "okay." Our food was nothing special and our food for a table of six didn't come out at the same time. They were quick to refill drinks, but not food corrections.
- Father's Day BrunchfathersdayDined on 6/15/2014We've been to the V several times and have enjoyed our experience. We were very disappointed for brunch on Father's Day. The service was very slow and the food was just mediocre. We even asked for bread to tide us over while we patiently waited for our food. It never came. There was also an advertisement to "like" the restaurant for a $10 gift card. There was no one at the front desk to redeem the offer. Overall, very disappointing.
- Sub-PAR and Over PricedRodLaliDined on 6/15/2014This is our third visit to V. Previous experiences were nice. However, this Father's Day brunch I found the quality, quantity and presentation to very disappointing. First, I ordered Steak and Eggs. The plate arrived with just one egg and a small portion of steak. My wife ordered an omelet with onions, spinach and mushroom but a ham and cheese omelet was delivered to our table. Our waitress promptly corrected the mistake by bringing me two eggs and my wife the omelet she ordered. The food presentation was bleak. The eggs were covered in a brown coating perhaps from a grill not cleaned from previous food preparation. Overall value for dollar is poor at best. The manager deducted the cost of one meal which was nice.Special Features:
- Nice RestaurantOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/14/2014Food was good for some in the party. One person's food came out cold. The atmosphere was nice. The wait staff was attentive but towards the end of the service seemed like they were trying to rush us out as they were getting ready for the night time crowd.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Can't say enough good things!FoodieFoodieTwoShoesDined on 6/13/2014I don't know what it is about this place, but every time I go I have such an amazing time! Conversation flows over delicious craft beer selections and expertly prepared food. I love that most of the menu is sourced locally. The ambiance of the entire place is great, and the booths allow for private conversation without making you feel isolated from the rest of the restaurant. This place is great for a date or a night out with friends, I love it, it's one of my all-time favorite restaurants. Go, you won't regret it!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- it's goodaqneonDined on 6/6/2014The food was good. I would pass on the cheese and cracker plate tiny portions vs the price. We all loved our entrées. The restaurant was out of a lot of things, rolls, french fries, and some of the beers on the list. We will try to go again for brunch.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great burgers!MichaelVIPDined on 6/4/2014Wife, daughter and I all had burgers and they were yummy!Special Features:
- Nice Brunch OutsideElJigglesDined on 6/1/2014My wife and I enjoyed our brunch outside. We were pretty much all alone and made for a nice Sunday outing. Enjoyed the omelet and the chicken and waffles.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Seatingtchs51Dined on 5/31/2014When my party of three arrived at the reserved time, the restaurant was not crowded. We were taken to a booth right outside of the kitchen. This seating was not satisfactory to me. You don't put reserved patrons in an unsatisfactory place. near the kitchen when the restaurant is not crowded. I asked for another seating and was accommodated.Special Features:
- Different tasteBJinVADined on 5/29/2014Food is usually very good, so we will call this time a fluke. Something changed on this visit. Still recommend trying VSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice Dinner ChoiceJulieCDined on 5/22/2014Excellent service - attentive but not intrusive, and interesting, varied menu with reasonably priced wine and beer choices. Ordered dinner salads and sandwich with onion rings and all was very good. The chocolate dessert was terrific! I will return for dinner and look forward to trying Sunday brunch. I really enjoyed my dining experience at The V.Special Features:
- Food is good but service is awfuldissatisfiedDined on 5/16/2014Our food was good however we ordered an appetizer and our entrees were served prior to getting the appetizer. Cancelled the appetizer. The manager came over to apologize and offered us desert on the house. Ordered desert and 1 coffee and 20 minutes later we didn't have anything.Special Features:
- PlanningPamramseurDined on 4/26/2014We had reservations for 7pm. Was seated quickly but no service for 10 mins. We had to get attn from another server. But it took awhile for drinks appetizers and the waiter forgot that we hadn't order our dinner. And it took 30 mins for dinner and glasses were not refilled with water. We had to keep asking. We were there two and half hours a long time for dinner. I understand they had prom night but should have planned to have more staff during those times. Need to work on service. We been in the bar and you get better service in the bar then the dining room. Thanks.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Upscale sports bar falls shortBlfofoodie123VIPDined on 4/4/2014You want to like this place you really do but when it comes down to it the food is very average, the service is just ok, and the vibe confusing? Sports Bar meets lounge? The one positive is it seems to be a gaining in popularity which makes it a fairly lively place. Somehow it has just missed the mark with me. I can't recommend V but I wouldn't tell someone not to try it.Special Features:

Drivers on Route 250 Westbound experienced traffic headaches from lane closures and construction during evening rush hour.
Traffic tied up for drivers in Charlottesville on Thursday evening. Trouble started when a driver hit a message board that warns people about a ramp closure from Park Street onto Route 250. That incident set workers back about an hour, and affected the rest of the day.
Work will continue at Rt. 250 and Park St. on Friday, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

9 Horses of Fury...A Zuma 125 on the Loose

Well, how about somebody find out for sure. Find a long 7% grade, take your Zuma 125, whack the throttle wide open and go for it. See how long it takes the engine to blow up. I didn't get very far, my engine was pinging, rattling, and knocking (same as trying to ride a motorcycle up the hill a couple of gears too high) I turned around quickly to save the engine. I even went so far as to install a clip on tachometer on it, and found the rpms while trying to climb this steep grade were less than half what they were riding on a level road at 55 mph. RPMs should have been nearly the same, as climbing the mountain put a lot more of a load on it than riding full speed on a level road. If gearing is not the problem, then how do you explain it?
I won't spend more on a bike than I think it's worth, but if it's a good deal, I don't seem to have a problem buying bikes I don't need.

Miley Cyrus Dead? Hoax Tries, Fails to Off Singer With Fake Overdoseby Free Britney at . Updated at . Comments
A viral Facebook hoax is saying Miley Cyrus died this weekend. Don't believe any of the hype that Miley Cyrus is dead, though, and don't click on any links.
According to the sham report, the singer passed away at her home due to an overdose, but it's all a farce. The headline spreading virally reads:
"[SHOCKING] Miley Cyrus Found Dead in Los Angeles Home! Country singer Miley Cyrus found overdosed this afternoon in her Los Angeles home."
Shocking as that would be ... Miley hasn't been a country singer in years, if ever.
Oh yeah, and this alleged tragedy did not occur in any way, shape or form.
It's more than just a cruel joke, too, as this particular hoax appears designed to spread bogus surveys that make money for the scammers behind it.
Pretty shameless, but also fairly customary (sadly) in this day and age.
When users click on the post, they're redirected to a site designed to look like Facebook, which prompts them to share the page before continuing.
There's no video of Miley Cyrus dead, of course, or story of any sort.
She's been the subject of similar rumors in the past, as have a host of other celebrities. Check out other stars done in by hoaxes in the past:
Too bad the story is false. 'We The People' are soooo sick of seeing her and her scuzzy tongue on websites like this all the time.
Comment modified at
When death hoax stories come out about you, you know you have overexposed yourself. She needs to stop posting silly boring pics and doing outrageous stage acts. You're supposed to be a singer so start acting like one and just sing.

Marketing purposes??

Miley Cyrus Dead? Thank goodness this is a hoax! ...for fans: Miley vines VineSnap.NET

I keep on saying it but PLEASE someone give her a good uppercut when she sticks out that gawd awful tongue. I don't think we'd ever ever see her doing it again.

October is Baby Loss Awareness Month. October 15th is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day.
It's a month where Baby Loss is not a taboo subject.
I love that there is a month that is dedicated to Baby Loss Awareness – but it shouldn't be that way.
Baby loss should not be a taboo subject.
Baby loss is real. It hurts. It rips out your heart and it never heals.
I've experienced baby loss. Twice.
I lost my babies back in 2009. Five months apart.
My third baby didn't make it much past her fifth week of pregnancy – but she was real! I experienced morning sickness with her – right up until she left me.
I found out she was gone at nine weeks pregnant. I was told at an emergency scan at 7 weeks that she more than likely had gone.
But she refused to leave me. I didn't want to let her go.
My heart ripped in two as I was wheeled to theatre, put to sleep and had to have her taken from my body.
We should have been happy celebrating our twelfth week of pregnancy. Getting excited about seeing our baby in her 12 week scan.
Instead I had to under go my first ever general anaesthetic.
It was Wednesday April 1st 2009 when she was taken from me. I hoped so much it was an April fool. That I'd wake up and they'd say she was alive!
But she wasn't. She had gone from womb.
Taken from me.
She was due October 10th 2009.
My fourth baby is also an angel.
We fell pregnant with him just 2 months later.
I asked for an early scan to check on my baby. I was told by midwives and doctors that it was unlikely that this pregnancy would end the same way.
I was refused a scan.
My baby died in his sixth week of pregnancy.
I still felt pregnant. I looked pregnant.
4 days before our 12 week scan I had some spotting. I was 11+6 weeks pregnant.
I saw a doctor for a sore throat and thought I'd mention the spotting.
I was told that it was normal. I had my scan in a few days and not to worry.
The following day I bled. A lot. It stopped.
Then it started again. It was a Sunday. It was a Bank Holiday weekend.
I called NHS Direct. I was called back by an older male doctor. I will remember his words for as long as I live.
Oh yes, it sounds like a threatened miscarriage. Put your feet up and take a pregnancy test in the morning. If it's positive you're still pregnant.
Those who have experienced miscarriages will know that you will get a positive pregnancy test result even when your baby has died inside you, as your body is still producing the HCG hormone.
I carried on bleeding until the day of my scan.
I knew what they were going to say.
I couldn't look at the screen. I couldn't look at my baby leaving me.
I closed my eyes until they'd finished.
I'm sorry.
I was sent home with a date to return in a week.
That night, Tuesday September 2nd 2009 after a very painful 3 hour labour, I gave birth to our 2nd angel.
He was due March 12th 2010.
Even though I have gone on to have 2 more healthy children, I always think about the 2 I lost.
I wonder what they would be like now.
What would they look like. Sound like. Their favourite foods, toys, books, games.
I will never stop thinking about them – for they ARE my children. I carried them inside me. It does not matter that it wasn't for very long.
My blood flowed in to them. They became part of me and will always remain part of me.
I will meet them again one day. They will be waiting for me.
Then I will give my children the biggest hugs. The hugs I so desperately yearn for.
And then I'll never let them go again.
Baby Loss Awareness may only be for one month every year. But the pain and heartache a mother feels after losing her child remains for a lifetime.
9 Comments on Baby Loss Awareness Month 2013
I experienced a miscarriage in 2006, a year before I had my daughter, and I do sometimes think about how old that baby would have been now, what they'd have looked like, whether or not we'd still have Sausage if the first pregnancy had been successful, but we don't talk about it much. It's still very raw for both me and my Husband, after all these years.
I don't think people can ever understand the loss the of a child unless they have experienced it themselves.
If I had a magic wand…… but I sadly don't so can only send a cyber hug instead x x x
It's not something I have experienced myself but I do have close friends for whom it really was heart-wrenching. As you say, it shouldn't be a taboo subject x
Hello. I stumbled upon your site via Twitter.
Although I have 2 healthy daughters playing in their room down the hall. I will never forget my oldest, my son Gabriel. He was born with a heart condition that had gone undetected, and was inoperable. Tonight, I will light a candle for him, and think of him, and all the other angel babies, yours included, looking down on us, from heaven.
