best wine store san diego
- g
- goergemicheal Dec 14, 2006 02:22 AM
i was told by several people that beverages and more in mission valley was the best. i thought that the selection was not that great and that most of the stock was pretty overpriced. any ideas?
Vintage Wines is our favorite. Great selection and they have some great tastings too.
SD Wine Company is worth stopping in. We've usually found a few interesting bottles and their pricing is generally great.
The Third Corner is fun and they've got a nice selection at decent prices.
Wine Bank is another shop we like but they were purchased a few months ago and recent reviews aren't great. To be fair, we've not been in a while so I'm only going off other folks' opinions. We used to buy a lot more wine than now and it was our go-to spot.
And finally, Costco has a decent selection and it seems like we usually find the most interesting selection in Mission Valley.
Happy shopping!
Although the selection is limited and stock changes frequently, which is frustrating at times the SD wine co. on Eastgate mall in the UTC/miramar is my go to place. The whole staff is top knotch, spot on recs, good deals. Sign up for their mailer online.
Current fav is the Marques Phillepe (RP +90) Shiraz - 7.99
#1: Vintage Wines
#2: San Diego Wine Co.
#3: Third Corner
#4: Italian wine specialty store around 9th+G (if it's still open)
#5: Costco. The Morena store still gets more "super-premium" stuff than any other, including Mission Valley.
#6: BevMo: Usually they're about 10-20% overpriced, but not always.
In general, I also try to visit the Wine Exchange (in Orange) and the Wine Club (Santa Ana) regularly. Get on their mailing lists.
Absolutely avoid San Diego Wine Bank. It was marginal when Mike owned it. He was a real stinker about not running the A/C when it could get up to 80F in his downstairs. Thinking about all those incredible wines he's ruined over the years just to save a nickle makes me sick. He sold it to some dipshit from back east who immediately raised prices (on all those cooked wines) 50% and repositioned the store to rip off Conventioneers.
Barons has also made my "don't bother to return" list. They've put out an awful lot of wines that were obviously cooked without comment (or discount). And their pricing has continually crept up until they're no longer competitive with SD Wine Co. or Vintage.
I occaisionally find something interesting at Whole Foods, though their prices are about 10-20% too high. Same for Bristol Farms and Jonathans.
re: mikec
Barons is known for buying cooked wines, at least among people who know their wine.
San Diego Wine Co. used to be my go-to spot, but now I'm sitting on 60 bottles at home that need drinking so I haven't bought anything in a while.
Wine Bank's new owner made a really bad impression on me when I went in to get some Scotch. I asked for something specific, which they had, and then he tried to steer me to something I had no interest in, which was more expensive. He tried to sell me on it by telling me it was John Gotti's favorite, and then that the former owner of Wine Bank knew John Gotti. I left thinking that if this dude is impressed by the tastes of a notorious criminal, it's probably not the place I want to be shopping.
re: ibstatguy
I'll agree that Vintage isn't perfect, and you should probably avoid older Burgundy's there. Still, I've been in The Wine Bank basement when it had to have been in the mid to high 80's. The Wine Bank running the A/C now is closing the barn door after the horses have left. What is the Wine Bank going to get now that will be worth getting? I like Brian, I think he's a good guy who got royally screwed by Mike. He might be able to lead you through the minefield that is the Wine Bank.
FWIW, I've also got several friends that have been screwed by Parker of the WineSellar, so it's not a place I recommend.
I like the wine store in Flower Hill. Very knowledgable and good selection. Also just discovered Meritage Wine Store in Encinitas. Smallish, but excellent selection and awesome wine tastings every Thursday, Fri, and Sat for usually just $20. Last Friday was a blind tasting of 6 "Legends", basically the well known Cabernets ranging in price from $80 to $150 a bottle. Included Silver Oak, Mondavi, Duckhorn, and others. $20. Looking forward to some non-"Legends" that might provide better value to purchase. My favorite wine store is Wine Country in Long Beach, just off I-405. They have the best monthly magazine with great articles (free) and a huge selection. Well worth the trip for great finds and excellent prices.
San Diego Wine Company is my hands down place to go. Great selection, with good prices. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Write ups on all the wines.
re: ibstatguy
Even closer is The Wine Pavillion opend by the former manager of the Wine Club. (I-5 at El Toro Road, just east of the freeway)
Bob - thanks for the tip on pavillion. I just heard yesterday the mgr of wine club had moved on. Has anyone been to Terry Hudson's (formerly of Wine Bank and Wine Sellar) place in OC?
Did anyone mention Wine Sellar and Brasserie?
They have a very good restaurant too.
re: Sandy Eggo
Yes, the WineSellar has been a topic, with mixed results. I have had no problems there and like their selection of French wines, especially the Burgundy, but others have had problems with price and quality. The concensus is to shop around, there is probably no perfect wine store and if there were, it would not stay that way.
re: rbrujo
the Wine Sellar has quality wines but in my experience is overpriced. they do have some good tastings with wine makers. agree with rbrujo that you need to shop around. go on line and subscribe to the WineX, Hi Times and/or Wine Club newletters; good free source of information. Bevmo is supposed to be willing to meet those advertised prices as well.
A nice thing about SD Wine Company is that they have tastings every Saturday. For a pretty reasonable fee, you can try a large number of their wines. That's always resulted in me picking up a few bottles.
I can't believe I didn't even mention my good friend Brad's store, Varietals Wine Merchants, in Point Loma. It's in the funky two-story office building (that looks like it might have been a motel or apartment building at some point) just south of the Book Star on Rosecrans. Brad specializes in botique central California wines.

FORT WORTH, Texas — Although the Trinity Railway Express was among the first passenger rail lines in the U.S. to begin installing wireless Internet nearly six years ago, it still hasn't caught hold with passengers due to spotty service, according to the Star-Telegram.
The commuter rail line, which is co-owned by the Fort Worth Transportation Authority (the T) and Dallas Area Rapid Transit, hopes to launch a more reliable Wi-Fi service in October. For the full story, click here.

Irish Museum of Modern Art, Royal Hospital, Military Road, Kilmainham, Dublin 8
IMMA continues its commitment in showcasing some of the most exciting international artists working today with the first museum exhibition in Ireland of renowned British artist Haroon Mirza. Combining a variety of readymade and time based material to create audio compositions, which are often realised as site-specific installations, Mirza's work complicates the distinctions between noise, sound and music.
Mirza's exhibition will feature remnants of the recent Eileen Gray exhibition at IMMA. Occupying the same gallery spaces, the Gray exhibition will act as a 'readymade' from which Mirza will remix elements to create a new visual and sonic installation. The new site-specific work, System, created by Mirza for IMMA has been carefully conceived in response to the very particular architecture of the Royal Hospital Kilmainham. The title of Mirza's new work references the name of the Dublin based '90s nightclub venue System, which although only in existence for a few years framed a very specific moment in music, a genre of which heavily influences the artist's work. On 5 April, Mirza will stage a curated music night/DJ event at IMMA.
Alongside IMMA, Mirza will present solo exhibitions in 2014 at Le Grande Café, Centre d'Art Contemporain, France; and at the Villa Savoye, France. He won the Daiwa Art Foundation Prize (2012), he was awarded the Silver Lion Award at the 54th Venice Biennale Illuminations (2011), and the Northern Art Prize (2010).
Please Note: Visitors are warned that this exhibition contains flashing lights.

Andy Warhol is one of the most recognizable artists of the 20th Century. With hits like his famous Campbell's soup cans and Marilyn Monroe portraits, he is likely the first name you think of in association with the pop art movement. He isn't primarily known for being an auto enthusiast,of course, but maybe that's not the whole story – there was his BMW M1 art car, after all, and automobiles were frequently the subject of his artwork. Now, Warhol's 1974 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow is up for auction on eBay Motors.
According the seller, Warhol never had a driver's license, but he still wanted to own a luxurious car. It's claimed that he occasionally had his famous friends, including Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, chauffeur him around in the Rolls. Following Warhol's death in 1987, the car was auctioned for $77,000, and since then it has only been sold to one additional owner.
The Rolls is painted Walnut and Mason's Black, which appears closer to a shade of brown in these photos, with a black leather interior. The engine is the company's' popular 6.75-liter V8 with a three-speed automatic transmission, and there are just 56,000 miles on this luxurious classic. The seller is including copies of original purchase order from Rolls-Royce and the title to Warhol Enterprises to prove the famous artist's ownership of the car, plus all of its service records.
For a Rolls-Royce with as much history as this car claims to possess, it doesn't seem to be inspiring much bidding. As of this writing, there are no bids with the price at $89,000. Too bad Warhol didn't paint it in a similar colorful style as the BMW. Maybe that would make it more popular...

Park grant funds consultant to help improve Natchez Pilgramage tours
Published: February 29,2012
Tags: consultant, consulting, cultural tourism, economic development, Heritage, historic homes, home tours, museums, real estate, tourism, tourists, visitors
NATCHEZ — A consultant will work with the owners of historic homes in Natchez to improve the local home tours.
The Natchez National Historical Park has used a $23,000 grant to hire Mary Ruffin Hanbury to work on how the home tours can be better conducted.
Park superintendent Kathleen Jenkins tells the Natchez Democrat Hanbury will meet people who are involved in the home tours and talk about what they think they need.
"She is going to be working this spring about identifying best practices, just to try to get our house tour experience ready for the 21st century market," Jenkins said.
During Spring Pilgrimage, Hanbury will meet with those involved in the home tours and develop a questionnaire that will be available online for both the homeowners and the visiting public, Jenkins said.
Hanbury will write a final report that Jenkins said she hopes will be available by summer.
Jenkins said bringing in Hanbury is a "thank you" to those who started home tours because keeping the houses in shape for touring has helped preserve them.
She said it also recognizes that the times and the people touring the houses are different than they were 80 years ago.
"I have a tremendous respect for the ladies who began house tours here in Natchez — they were designing the airplane while they were flying it," she said. "Times change, and this is an acknowledgment of that."
Things to be considered include how new technologies can be incorporated, how exhibits can be more interactive and what activities can be worked into tours for children, Jenkins said.
Likewise, homeowners could consider telling multiple perspectives to the old Natchez stories.
"There was a vast array of different people living in Natchez, and they might have looked at the same events differently," Jenkins said. "And they might have thought different things were significant."

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Had a chance to look around inside this So Called Prestigious school on November 10th,2014. On their Open House flyer (as well their website) did mention lottery application available online and each campus, for those who don't have internet access, can get the application at the campus. I know a lot of desperate parents (including me) have high hopes on that date thought It's all about registration, but we all get disappointed. Instead of handed out the application, they handed out the Petitions for us to sign. Tricky yet smart move though. How could you reach out to hundreds of people when you can lured them to come to you instead. I hope they really did get all the signatures they need. Don't get me wrong though, I love the idea of adding more school. It's for everybody's sake. But next time do something nice and more transparent.
The school has increased enrollment giving other children more opportunities to attend a good school. As a city school, their test scores are excellent. My children have done very well at this school.
My kids go to this school, It's a very safe school. Not to mention my kids have fun going to school because of the way they teach.
My daughter is entering her third year at PPACS. As a family we love the school and can't wait for my son to enter. That being said PPACS is a choice you make as a family and if your looking for the full experience be prepared to put in the effort. We have had nothing but good experiences with all the staff here. If you are sending your child for the special classes be prepared to follow through as a parent. Yes we have had to put time in to understanding a violin to help our daughter practice, learning ballet to make sure positions are correct, and having to thoroughly practice French at home. Theses were efforts we had to make as a family and it was a big adjustment but it was something we did as part of our commitment in sending our daughter to a school we felt was on par with educational, community, and moral ideals.
Do not send your children here. What they preach & what they practice are polar opposite. Their leadership is deplorable. And they are getting away with it all because the city schools are a mess.
My Kindergartner is reading,writing simple sentences, solving math problems and learning the arts. Academically, my child is thriving at PPACS. Some of the problems the schools has comes from the administration. To me, they seem to make quick decision without thinking of the impact on parents. However, PPACS is a fairly a new school and they are working through some of this problems. I couldn't be happier about choosing to send my child to PPACS. As a parent, you want your child to become a well-rounded individual, and I feel PPACS helps develop my child to strive long after his departure.
My daughter is coming to this school on September. Really excited and believe she will flourish here. I encourage administrators to add Spanish to the curriculum as a second language alternative I believe our children will navigate more effectively in American culture where the number spanish population is growing
This school is absolutely horrible. There is no male teachers or administrators which is concerning. The teachers are never available and the children are forced to do ballet without being able to pick. Also they teach French which is not used much in business marketing, or social services. So what are they really preparing the children for???The school is located on Broad Street which is extremely dangerous for many reason and the building is unwelcoming and unfriendly structurally. The building sits on top of the El Station and the children hear it throughout their day. Removing my children after only 1 year.
String Theory school are growing too fast and the quality is suffering. There is no excuse for the low level art teachers that are being hired considering how many art teachers are unemployed these days. The school would do well to stop rampant nepotism and hire teachers and staff based on their credentials, not who went to which catholic school, or how long you've lived in Philadelphia. The concept of the school is excellent and my daughter did received the support she needed, but we witnessed a steep drop in quality in the last couple of years. And the parent who said her child speaks french.. laughable. No conversation french.. number the anthem and other nonsense
PHILADELPHIA PERFORMING ARTS CHARTER SCHOOL is not just a school, it's a community working together to provide not only an excellent education for the children who are blessed to be selected to attend, the school teaches students respect for authority, the school and each other. This should be the model for all schools.
After reading some reviews, I'm going to reconsider enrolling my child in this school. Reading what that student went threw I'm not sending my child!
Just move in to the neighborhood. And heard a lot of good and bad things about this school. Good thing is the school is great in arts, and we are happy to find a good quality art school in neighborhood, since my daughter so in love with arts. Bad thing is my daughter didn't get in because of the lottery system. Well, they said it is a lottery but obviously they pick and choose by the address and race. Unlike some other charter school which they announced the date and time of the lottery so public could attend it. There is one certain area where all the rich one live, have all their children enroll in this school, Obvious? Sigh.. Next time just put a sign stated what race and zipcode are you accepted, so we don't waste our time waiting..
I love this school I got in didn't know anyone but everyone was so welcoming. The principle was really nice and this school has a good curriculum. I was a art major and had a good time even though I was only there for 2 years 5th and 6th still my brother, sister, and I loved it. We wished we would've stayed but we had to move to NC now we barely even like going to school. I strongly recommend this school. P.S don't listen to the people who say that you got to know someone to get in this school because my family didn't know anyone in this school
I have a kindergartener at PPACS and am extremely pleased with the curriculum for Grade K. I am also pleased with how the school keeps parents informed with what is going on within the school walls.
I do agree with the parent that said , you need to know someone there. My daughter has been in performing arts since2009 and it made no difference. And yes I know someone personally that got there three kids in just this august. It should be based on academic and arts achevments. At least a start.
It is a miracle. I have 2 students there now a d 2 that have graduated high school. What splendor comes from this school. It keeps me crying with joy about all they do
I have tried my kids in previous schools, and none compare to what I have found at PPACS. When I put my kids in PPACS, the level of security was amazing. The happiness that my children was missing, return to them very quickly. My kids finally brought text books home! The extra curriculum activities such as music, dance, vocals,chess club, and homework club just put the icing on the cake. All of my children has finally experience greatness. I wish every child could experience a great school, hardworking teachers,a phenomenon staff, safe environment and a quality education that my children experience every day at Philadelphia Performing Arts Charter School. PPACS you rock!!!!!!!!
Your kid will only get accepted into this school if you know any members of the staff other than that you can forget about it which is really unfair.
Unlike most reviews on this website I was a student who went here NOT a parent so I really know what goes on in this school. The teachers pass around gossip like they are all students and when students are in an environment that perhaps encourages that they learn to think doing so is okay. I could not stand being in that school for my 7th and 8th grade they were horrible years for me and changed my whole life. However, the music teaching is great. The school also picks on certain kids and they always get in trouble for normal things kids do it's almost as if the teachers like to call parents on purpose and watch the kids suffer. Certain teachers allow kids to cut class. Some teachers are very good but majority of the teachers in this school will pick out favorite students and treat them better than everyone else. The school is such a fake place to be in and its horrible for a kid to grow up surrounded by a bunch of people who try to act like the school is so great but in reality the school is not as great as it seems. The teachers would sometimes talk and make fun of children who were absent with the students who were in that day. Its sick and not as great as people say.
My son is beginning first grade at PPACS. His kindergarten year was both enjoyable and challenging. The workload is heavy but nothing the kids couldn't handle. He came out of kindergarten having studied subjects I never learned until 3rd or 4th grade. LOVED his teachers.

Nothing but Trouble
1991 Directed by Dan Aykroyd
All they wanted was a little getaway. All they got was nothing but trouble.
Stock market millionaire Chris Thorne and investment lawyer Diane Lightson are headed to Atlantic City when they take the wrong exit off the New Jersey Turnpike. A local cop stops them for speeding in a curious town, where they're brought before 106-year-old Judge Alvin Valkenheiser. But the old man's punishment turns out to be as bizarre as he is.

There's a moment in this film when Demi Moore is playing cards with Dan Akroyd as one of two giant greasy babies in diapers while Chevy Chase is about to get married to John Candy in drag with Digital Underground (featuring Tupac) doing the wedding march that I knew that all was right with the world.
Utterly mesmerizing in its hideousness.
"If it was an ambulance you got a chance, if it's in a hearse, it's gotta be worse!"
Nothing But Trouble is not an unwatchable film by any means. It's actually paced quite well and the look of Valkenvania, the setting of this "comedy", is cool to look at in a trashy, early '90's kind of way. However, it is a terrible comedy because it's missing a crucial element: comedy.
Completely devoid of laughs, the funniest thing about this film is watching Dan Akroyd completely embarrass himself, as the writer, director and actor of this film. He obviously thought this would be a comedy classic on the basis of how many bizarre going-ons he can fit into one 90 minute…
A big dumb eighties FX comedy in the tradition of the Golden Child, Big Trouble In Little China, The Goonies, etc., but made a few years too late and with none of the warmth or charm that made those other movies enduring semi-classics. Nothing But Trouble is a miscalculation of the highest order - Dan Aykroyd ostensibly occupies the director's chair but he spent so much time in the makeup chair that the set designers ended up running the show, which means there was nobody to rein in Chevy Chase, who blankly deadpans nonsensical one-liners into the dark void that is Hollywood's great cocaine era banging grotesquely to a close. Which is to say that this movie is funny in the way that watching something die is always hilarious.
Visually abhorrent and appallingly unfunny. I think I developed a migraine after watching it.
One of many Chevy chase's farewell to comedy films, unfortunately he dragged with him Dan Aykroyd and the late great john candy…and go fuck yourself Demi Moore.
Wait is that Tupac!

Had to do this one in a few sittings. Just completely abhorrent in every way. I'm embarrassed for everyone involved.
With the cast that this movie has, you'd think it'd be a pretty decent horror comedy. Well, you'd be wrong.
Nothing But Trouble is jus one huge misfire. Barely funny or even interesting to watch, every member of the cast is wasted here in this flop of a film directed by Dan Aykroyd.
Nothing But Trouble is a comedy
Jay Cheel once said that 2001: A Space Odyssey works best being watched on an experiential level. I believe the same can be said for Nothing But Trouble. Like 2001, it's a real doozy, and has to be seen to be... seen.
This shit was weird.... That is all.

A businessman finds he and his friends the prisoners of a sadistic judge and his equally odd family in the backwoods of a bizarre mansion. - IMDB
If I'd had a Letterboxd account some twenty years ago, this film would have got a much better rating from me. I used to enjoy it's crazy, comedic action.
Watching it now, probably with the help of cinematic hindsight, it's a little on the boring side. One thing in it's favour is that it feels quick. There's plenty going on throughout the film and it eats away the time quick, but what there is on there is a little clunky and the outrageous, almost fantasy elements seem a little silly.
Definitely not close to the best thing that anyone in this has done, but in saying that, I could still watch it for one part nostalgia, and one part enjoyment.
Part courtroom drama, part love story. This star-studded, action packed, fun-house thrill ride will terrify, bore and disgust you... only to steal your heart and leave you in uproarious laughter. This ones got it all folks.

According to Margot Badran, framing the quest for democracy as a battle between secularists and Islamists is a distraction that will delay, if not derail, the cause of building a vibrant, egalitarian Egypt. An interview by Elisa PierandreiMore
Every year, groups of Shia men parade through the centre of Nabatiyeh, where Lebanon's major Ashura rituals take place. These rituals include the controversial bloodletting rite known as "tatbir". Although frowned upon by religious and political authorities, Shia communities still practice tatbir as a vital part of their communal act of mourning Imam Hussein, who was martyred at the pivotal Battle of Karbala in 680 AD.

text: Pastor: Phil Robertson Was Praying for Cancer Victim When A&E Suspended Him Print article Send a Tip by AWR Hawkins 20 Dec 2013 post a comment When word came that Phil Robertson had been "indefinitely" suspended by A&E, he was praying for a fellow church member afflicted with cancer, according to his church leader. Robertson's pastor Mike Kellett said, "There were greater things on our mind than the firestorm about this [GQ magazine] article." Speaking to CNN, Kellett said Robertson isn't worried about being suspended over what he said because he believes he told the truth: "He's very calm, and very confident that if he serves the Lord, God will take care of everything." Kellett is pastor of White's Ferry Road Church of Christ, where Robertson is an elder. He said that in that role Robertson "offers spiritual counsel, helps teach the faith, host Bible studies and offers charity to the poor." Pastor Kellett said he supports Robertson's response to the questions from the GQ reporter. He also said he thinks it "unfortunate that when you quote the Bible people get upset about one particular sin that always seems to get a lot of attention."

Santa Ana bookstore owner Rueben Martinez talks about his plans to convert his operation into a nonprofit collaboration with Chapman University.
Age: 72
Residence: Santa Ana
Family: Three children, 10 grandchildren, five great-grandchildren.
Occupation: Presidential Fellow, Chapman University, recruiting first-generation college students.
Martinez on reading:
"I like books that smell like paper, wood, like lumber, like a tree, man. Books were my life growing up. And books will be my life forever."
"Families that read together, graduate together."
"Books have taken me to every state in the union."
"A book is dead until you open it up," Mexican novelist Carlos Fuentes told him. "And then it comes alive."
Chapman's Latino enrollment: 13 percent of 7,000 undergraduate, graduate and law school students. In 2006, it was 11 percent.
Librería Martínez de Chapman University: The store, at 216 N. Broadway in Santa Ana, is closed for remodeling, but will hold its grand re-opening on Oct. 27.
SANTA ANA – Rueben Martinez, the Santa Ana barber who created a new life through a love of books and reading, is entering a new phase of life.
Librería Martínez Books and Art Gallery has become Librería Martínez de Chapman University, a nonprofit bookstore and educational center focused on learning and literacy, the university announced recently.
Martinez, 72, opened his first Santa Ana shop in 1975, across the street from his store's current location. In 1993, he began selling books he would buy in Tijuana for Spanish-speaking customers, and in 1996 he launched Librería Martínez on Main Street, moving the operation to its Broadway site about three years ago.
It has drawn big-name authors such as Jorge Ramos, the late Carlos Fuentes and Sandra Cisneros, as well as international attention, but like a lot of retail bookstores, it has struggled, too.
Martinez, a presidential fellow, has been working for Chapman University for about three years. Born into a family of copper miners in Miami, Ariz., he recruits first-generation students. He has donated the contents of his store to the new endeavor – more than 7,000 books. Chapman's College of Educational Studies will raise funds to cover the costs of operating Libreria Martinez, relying on sales, grants and donations.
"It is a matter of social entrepreneurship. For this initiative to work, it must be a community effort," said Don Cardinal, dean of Chapman's College of Educational Studies, who spearheaded the effort. "We have faith that the community will help support this effort, and donors will see the value of a community business helping support the needs of the local community."
Martinez tells us about the change, and what it means for the community, and himself.
How did your partnership with Chapman come about?
They came to me. It was their idea, because they saw me working every day. And then, recruiting students for Chapman University – a lot of them I meet here.
They knew that I was losing money, that I was putting my savings into it. It was costing me close to $5,000 a month. It hurt me to write a check. Sometimes I had to move moneys around, scrounge around. They saw me. Actually it was the dean, Don Cardinal; he came up with the idea. "What do you think if you and the bookstore partnered with Chapman University?" I said that would be fantastic, And he said, "Let me dig into it. Let me look around." So after about a year and a half, Don made a presentation to the board of directors of Chapman. And they all supported it.
How tough did it get?
I haven't made a nickel in this store in the last three years.
A lot of publishers think, 'How does Martinez do it?' And what it is is never giving up, believing in what you're doing ... The struggles took up too big a challenge. But I always paid my rent.
It would be really hard for me to close. The store has been so good to me and to my customers and to my friends. Everybody is always giving me advice – to close, because you're losing money. "Look at yourself, man. You look tired. Beat up. You're spending your savings."
Business was coming down. I had a nice apartment, and I put everything in storage. And in 2003, I went to live in the Main Street store, because I didn't want to lose the store. Nobody knew. And I didn't care.
It was always rough. Even when we had our good days, when we had our author signings. You'd have Jorge Ramos; you'd sell 200 or 300 books. It pays the rent, pays expenses, and then before you know it, there's more bills. I was running short. I knew the store was not generating the income that it should to pay all the expenses, so I sacrificed. I had a kitchen. I had a stove, a refrigerator. I had everything a house should have. I then had a shower in there and two bathrooms. What more could you want? I sacrificed, and I stayed there, because I wanted the store. I lived there for about a year. Then the MacArthur came (a 2004 $500,000 "genius grant" from the MacArthur Foundation).
Why didn't you close?

Dr Christian: Hi I'm doctor Jessen
Brian: Good morning doctor
Dr Christian: Come and have a seat for me
Brian: Thank you very much indeed
Dr Christian: What can I do for you?
Brian: Hopefully give me a bit of uplift, I was circumcised about 10 years ago, the diagnosis being that my foreskin was tightening and was hurting me, since when I noticed that there were little blood blisters at the end as well as well as lesions and I thought, "this is getting, this is nasty".
Dr Christian: This was soon after the circumcision, so we're talking 10 years ago?
Brian: Indeed, I keep wondering what on earth it is.
Dr Christian: Are you having problems with sex with your wife, are you still having sex?
Brian: Well put it this way, we both wish we could have sex
Dr Christian: Well I think what I'd like to do is have a look, do you mind hopping up on the couch and we'll have a look? And just pop your trousers and pants down for me.
Brian: There we are.
Dr Christian: I'm going to pop some gloves on. And is it sore if I touch it?
Brian: No, no, not at all, I'll soon yell if you are sore. You carry on doctor.
Dr Christian: Your foreskin is very tight isn't it?
Brian: Yes and it looks quite angry.
Dr Christian: And it smells a little bit as well doesn't it?
Brian: Yes it does, it doesn't matter how many time you wash, you know.
Dr Christian: This is something called Balanitis Xerótica Obliterante, it's a great long Latin name for tightening of the foreskin, ok? The smell and the redness and things on the end of the penis is because it's so tight and you're not able to wash it and you're not able to clean it. What I would be inclined to do actually is to send you to a surgeon to consider a further circumcision, because I think the first one didn't really remove enough foreskin and we need to remove more of this tightened foreskin. Then you'll be able to clean things properly, you won't be so red on the end on the glands of your penis and I think it'll make life a little bit better for you.
Dr Pixie V/O (Dr Pixie?): Brian Fulton-Harte is about to have his second adult circumcision. He's in the capable hands of consultant urologist Gordon Muir, who performs 75 adult circumcisions a year.
Gordon Muir: Ok these do sting a bit and I'm not going to pretend they don't, sorry. That really is a very sore and very unhappy looking head of the penis. It's very unusual to find a circumcision that does need to be redone, but no surgery has a 100% guarantee
Brian: Good heavens, it's incredible isn't it? Look at that.
Gordon Muir: Ok, and we'll leave that on, ok that's us, well done.
Dr Pixie V/O: Brian should be back in the saddle after about six weeks.
Gordon Muir: Ok, that's that.
Brian: Is that it?
Gordon Muir: That's it.
Brian: You've got one very, very happy patient Mr Muir.
Dr Pixie V/O: Brian Fulton-Harte is back at the clinic for one final check-up, it's been three weeks since his second adult circumcision, and Dr Jessen wants to see if his get up and go is back.
Dr Christian: Let's have a look. It's still a little bit swollen. There's a few red patches and ulcers and things that look a bit sore, but I think that as you keep it clean and dry from now on, that'll get a lot better.
Brian: Well it's nothing like it was before. It's a complete freedom.
Dr Christian: It looks a bit neater doesn't it? It looks much neater.
Brian: You're quite pleased with it aren't you?
Dr Christian: I am quite pleased with it yeah. Are you?
Brian: I certainly am, yes.
Consultation: Second Adult Circumcision
Second Adult Circumcision is one of the many embarrassing illnesses which men would prefer to suffer in silence with than go and consult their GP about. However, in this repackaged consultation from series one, Dr Christian Jessen explains exactly what it is and what treatment is available to make life more comfortable.

About two years ago i had a circumcision, Prior to the surgery in was about 9inches in length. after the surgery it decreased in size and hardness, i am now about 5inches in length, i saw some where on the web that it can happen from aggressive circumcisions and that a simple procedure can be undertaken to fix the problem. please help

Hello doc I was circumcised when I was 7 I'm nearly 15 and I have spots of a kind (more like loose skin) what should I do?
hey guys, I got circumsized 3 weeks ago and it seems like my penis decreased in size. Will it go back to its normal size after it completely heels?
I have suture tunnels that are quite large. They could be mistaken for piercings. It has effected my sex life because of the way they look. Is this a simple thing to fix? I cant take it anymore! I was a child when i was circumcised and was never told about removing the sutures, so these tunnels formed. Now i feel like ive been mutilated.
I am a 36 years old male, i just got cercumsised recently and after just 7days my stitches were completely healed, i then stayed another 7days and i was completely healed, while i was home playing with my wife i felt a very powerful irrection and couldnt hold myself any longer, i begged my wife for just one round and she ended up feeling pity for me, i enjoyed it but i am just a little scared because they stricly told me to have sex after six weeks but i had it after just 2weeks. Is it not going to affect any of my of my organs? Please help
Hi had a very tight for skin and could not clean all my penis. I got circumcised a week ago. At first it was very painful to walk and was very awkward to put the dressings on, but to day is the second day without the dressing and it is already getting better(getting away with skinny jeans). At this point no bleeding and the stitching looks very neat I hope there will be no pain when I have sex or masterbate (no sex for a longtime just to be safe) if you are think you need a curcumcistion go to your gp and get the correct help and don't be scared I was only 17 when I got diagnosed and was really scared but after getting help for my family and the NHS I feel glad I got it out the way. Its no big deal.
Hi my name is Phil and I am a 53 year old man and I was circumcised just over 16 years ago. For a few years now when I masturbate it gets sore on the left hand side just where the shaft joins the glands. I have seen my doctor a couple of times about it and she gave me some cream to put on it. The cream does help but it keeps happening. Just lately while examining it while erect on the right hand side it looks different the join between the shaft and glands looks better but on the left it is tight and when erect it pulls the glands down on that side is there anything that can be done to loosen it off as I am sure that's what is making it sore. An help would be appreciated as I am finding the soreness quite painful at times. I am unsure if I should go back to doctors again a I feel I am being a nuisance especially as it needs to be erect to show the difference between the two sides. I am really unsure what to o right now hopefully I will find some help on here.

I settled on this model after a fair amount of research and am quite happy with it; it is just what I expected it would be. It has an intuitive user interface, holds a reasonable amount of food, is very powerful, and heats evenly. My only recommendation would be a handle-opening door. The button-opening door works fine, but I'd prefer a handle. Alas, these seem to only be available with under-the-cabinet models, not the countertop ones.

We bought the stainless steel version and it worked well. Took a bit to get used to some of the features but overall we liked it. Then it suddenly died. My wife had been using the timing feature for baking cookies in the normal convection oven. Some time after that she looked to see what the time of day was and the microwave was dead. We only had it for 8 months.

Comments about GE Black Countertop Microwave Oven:
First microwave was dead out of the box. And now the second's control panel "locks up" periodically and the unit needs to be unplugged for it to be reset...a bit of a pain since it is semi-built in.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Overheats easily
By Serpman
from New Orleans, LA, United States
Unit overheats after a couple baked potatoes and doesn't work until it has cooled down.
All the features I need and not too big.

I've had this microwave for about six months, and have been very happy with the way it performs. It defrosts nicely and the sensor setting on popcorn works great too.
Works just fine
By Gooberdad
from Falmouth, MA, United States
Originally purchased as a replacement for another GE microwave that rusted after a few months of service. This one appears to be just fine.
Works well; door starting to have problems
By pianoteacher
from Tennessee
This microwave has worked very well for me, doing everything I need it to do. However, within the past month or so, the door has started misbehaving a little bit. It seems that the switch is sticking a bit when I open it -- I sometimes hear a loud "click" about a second after the door opens, as (what I assume to be) the automatic switch moves back into place. I've had the oven about a year. I hope this isn't the start of worsening door problems.
Love this "HOT" Micro
By JoyR
from Hiram,OH
I have all GE appliances in my kitchen and this one is the newest one. I love the ease of it and it is a great microwave. I like the size of it, also. Not too big and not too small. It has enough power to heat everything I need, fast.
By Memetime61
from North Carolina, United States
I just purchased this microwave because I love GE products and this one fits my kitchen perfect and it cooks totally awesome with no issues. I have read some people have had issues with it but If by chance on down the road and it does go bad I am sure GE will make it good. All my appliances are GE and I have not ever had a problem.

International military alliance created to defend western Europe against a possible Soviet invasion. on Monday agreed to another coalition-led mission inAfghanistan after the deadline -- primarily focusing on training, advising and assistance missions.
"In line with the strategy which we agreed at the Lisbon Summit, ISAF's mission will be concluded by the end of 2014. But thereafter Afghanistan will not stand alone.
"We reaffirm that our close partnership will continue beyond the end of the transition period," leaders of the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF ISAF International Security Assistance Force (UN program)
ISAF International Sailing Federation
ISAF International Shark Attack File
ISAF Israeli Air Force
ISAF Information Security Awareness Forum ) members said in a joint declaration at the end of the summit meeting in Chicago.
"We agree to work towards establishing such a new NATO-led mission. We will ensure that the new mission has a sound legal basis, such as a United Nations Security Council Resolution A United Nations Security Council Resolution is a United Nations resolution voted on by the fifteen members of the United Nations Security Council, the most powerful organ of the United Nations. ," the declaration said.
The meeting was attended by leaders of more than 60 countries including the host President of the United States United States, officially United States of America, republic (2005 est. pop. 295,734,000), 3,539,227 sq mi (9,166,598 sq km), North America.

Noting that sustaining a sufficient and capable ANSF ANSF Afghanistan National Security Forces is the responsibility of the Government of Afghanistan supported by the international community, the declaration said as part of the wider International Community, and building upon existing mechanisms, they will play their part in developing appropriate, coherent and effective funding mechanisms and expenditure arrangements for all strands of the ANSF.
"As the Afghan economy and the revenues of the Afghan government grow, Afghanistan's yearly share will increase progressively from at least $500m in 2015, with the aim that it can assume, no later than 2024, full financial responsibility for its own security forces. In the light of this, during the transformation decade, we expect international donors will reduce their financial contributions commensurate with the assumption by the Afghan government of increasing financial responsibility," the declaration said.
According to the declaration, a peaceful, stable and prosperous Afghanistan will positively contribute to economic and social development in the wider region, and deliver progress in the fight against narcotics trafficking, illegal migration, terrorism and crime. In this context, regional cooperation and support for stability in Afghanistan is key, it noted.
The declaration also stressed on the need of good governance, effective fight against corruption, protection of human rights in particular those of the women and children and called for free and fair elections.
Noting that there is more work to be done, the NATO-led ISAF countries resolved to work together to preserve the substantial progress they have made during the past decade.
"The nations contributing to ISAF will therefore continue to support Afghanistan on its path towards self-reliance in security, improved governance, and economic and social development," it said.
"This will prevent Afghanistan from ever again becoming a safe haven for terrorists that threaten Afghanistan, the region, and the world. A secure and stable Afghanistan will make an important contribution to its region, in which security, stability and development are interlinked," the declaration said.

Action Needed to Improve Cost Reporting for DOD's Aerospace Control Alert Mission
GAO-13-785: Published: Sep 9, 2013. Publicly Released: Sep 9, 2013.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-4523
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
What GAO Found
In its April 2013 report to Congress, the Department of Defense (DOD) did not provide any new analyses, but provided the results of previous analyses related to the Aerospace Control Alert mission because, according to DOD officials, DOD was not expecting any future changes to the budget or force structure of the mission, including consideration of any basing location alternatives. DOD's April 2013 report summarized the results of three risk assessments that were conducted to support DOD's 2012 decision on which two alert basing locations could be removed from 24-hour alert status with the least amount of risk. The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), the Office of the Secretary of Defense Office of Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation, and the Continental U.S. NORAD Region performed these assessments and all concluded that, given the 2012 DOD decision that two alert basing locations would be removed from 24-hour alert status, the removal of the locations at Duluth, Minnesota, and Langley, Virginia, would provide the least increase in risk. DOD's April 2013 report also summarized a cost savings estimate developed after the decision to remove these basing locations from 24-hour alert status.
Along with the submission of DOD's budget requests for fiscal years 2010-14, the Air Force reported cost information for components of the Aerospace Control Alert mission in budget displays required by the Duncan Hunter National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009, but DOD did not report the comprehensive cost of the Aerospace Control Alert mission. Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government notes that financial information is needed for periodic external reporting and, on a day-to-day basis, to make operating decisions, monitor performance, and allocate resources. The Air Force provided budget displays containing information related to Air Force and Air National Guard military personnel costs, flying hours, and certain other costs along with DOD's budget justification materials for fiscal years 2010-14. However, DOD did not report other military service costs associated with the Aerospace Control Alert mission. The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 now requires, in addition to the Air Force cost information required by the Duncan Hunter National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009, that DOD provide a consolidated budget justification display that fully identifies the Aerospace Control Alert budget for each of the military services and encompasses all programs and activities of the Aerospace Control Alert mission for each of the following: procurement; operations and maintenance; research, development, testing, and evaluation; and military construction. According to DOD officials, such a display is being developed for inclusion with the fiscal year 2015 budget submission. These consolidated budget displays should help provide a more complete picture of Aerospace Control Alert mission costs. However, other military personnel costs, including those associated with the Army and the Army National Guard personnel providing ground-based air defense capabilities, support the mission as well. Inclusion of this information, in addition to the information required in the budget justification displays, could provide decision makers with more comprehensive cost information to make fully informed resource allocation decisions to support the Aerospace Control Alert mission.
Why GAO Did This Study
To protect U.S. airspace, DOD performs the Aerospace Control Alert mission, which includes military forces arrayed in a rapid response posture to conduct both air sovereignty and air defense operations against airborne threats over the United States and Canada. The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 required that the Secretary of Defense submit a report to Congress that provides a cost-benefit analysis and risk-based assessment of the Aerospace Control Alert mission as it relates to expected future changes to the budget and force structure of the mission. The act also requires that GAO review DOD's report and submit any findings to the congressional defense committees. In response to this mandate, GAO examined (1) DOD's April 2013 reporting of a risk-based assessment and cost-benefit analysis of the Aerospace Control Alert mission as they relate to expected future changes to the budget and force structure of that mission and (2) the extent to which DOD has reported the total cost of the Aerospace Control Alert mission. GAO reviewed DOD's April 2013 report to Congress and Aerospace Control Alert budget justification displays, and interviewed knowledgeable DOD officials.
What GAO Recommends
GAO recommends that DOD, as it expands its cost reporting in response to current reporting requirements, ensure that all personnel costs related to the Aerospace Control Alert mission, including those of the Army and Army National Guard, are included in DOD's budget displays. DOD concurred with GAO's recommendation.
For more information, contact Brian J. Lepore at (202) 512-4523 or email@example.com.
Recommendation for Executive Action
Status: Open
Comments: In commenting on a draft of this report, DOD concured with the recommendaton. However on 9/24/14, DOD/IG reported that this recommendation is not in DAMIS because the case has not yet been opened for follow up. DOD/IG received the report referral on 9/24/14. DOD/IG does not expect the case to be opened for follow up action until October 2014.
Recommendation: As DOD expands its cost reporting in the consolidated budget justification displays as required by section 354 of the Duncan Hunter National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009 and section 352 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013, the Secretary of Defense should direct the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and responsible DOD organizations, as appropriate, to ensure that all Aerospace Control Alert program and activity costs for each of the military services are captured, including military personnel costs of the Army and Army National Guard.

November 23, 2014
Iowa lawmakers seeking an increase in state fuel tax say they are pursuing their effort despite opposition by Gov. Terry Branstad.
Republican Rep. Dave Tjepkes said he'll continue to back an increase until legislative leaders tell him to stop.
Democratic Sen. Tom Rielly says he's taking the same approach.
The two head transportation committees in the House and Senate.
They called for an eight to ten cent fuel tax increase to pay for
$215 million in road and bridge work.
Branstad repeated his opposition to increasing the tax. He has called for $50 million in transportation department savings before approval of a fuel tax increase.
Tjepkes and Rielly say they are skeptical about transportation department cuts offered by agency officials.

Found Footage: MacBook Paper
If you can't bring yourself to shell out all that moola for a real MacBook Air, why not print out a tiny MacBook Paper? The MacBook Paper is even thinner than the MacBook Air, and it comes with a case at no additional cost. Don't even get me started on this thing's battery life (though I am pretty sure the battery isn't user replaceable).

This is simply a fantastic sounding bass and for the price you can't beat it. The tones sound as good and in most cases better than guitars 2-3 times the price. I tried an Epiphone, Ibanez and the Squier/Fender. The Squier/Fender blows the other away and down the street. The Jazz bass has a nice feel and the resonant tones sound fantastic. Adjust the 2 pickup dials and you get a whole new amazing deal.
I upgraded my strings to a $50.00 set out versus the ones that come of the box, had the bass prfessionally set up and adjusted and now I friggin LOVE this bass. It looks beautiful and sounds even better. I HIGHLY recommend it. I am now a Fender customer for life.

I'd be surprised. If the Giants didnt cut Kiwi this offseason, then its hard to imagine them cutting an actual productive player like Beatty
offense: mcadoo is constantly running it against 8 man fronts, and is just setting eli manning up to get killed
Defense: why the **** is Moore and Ayers not playing? That last drive had more...
Well, JPP did have the second highest PFF rating on the defense last week soooooo...
When was the last time the giants ran a play with players strengths in mind?
Another good pass from Nassib.
Honestly, I haven't heard much about him since early training camp. Has he been targeted at all so far in preseason? I've only heard his name called once and that was when Collingsworth was talking...

Generally the helmet "pinnies" you see on football players are a way to designate teams. I'm guessing they are used in drills where both teams have a white or blue jersey but need to be split up...
It also ended up being the career highlight tape of Giants great Louis Murphy
Will Hill went from iPhone lock screen worthy to having full hatred by me in just a matter of days
I think I chose my words poorly. I'm only trying to say that there should be no reason people are defending what James or that guy from Miami said or opposing any punishment they receive. What they...
Its pretty similar. You among others are saying James should be persecuted because its his personal belief. Sterling believes African Americans should be treated poorly compared to White Americans....
So you think if Donald Sterling had said his comments were just part of his religion, he should have gotten off free?
And I like James. I follow him on Twitter, hilarious guy. He played pretty...
I'm sure Reese is kicking himself for losing that production Ballard gave to the Patriots
