South Street Burger Co. ?

Has anyone tried this off shoot of NY Fries?
re: garfield
I want to like that GBC but the burger I had was super dry. Their toppings are great though. South St. Burger Co. was adequate, not the best burger ever, but hit the spot and wasn't offensive.
I actually don't mind it and they are opening locations all over the suburbs. So if you're ever stuck and your choices are fast food chains, then SSB Co. is a great option.
The meat is hormone-free, with no antibiotics or filler (according to their website). They have kid-sized combos too and you can top it your way just like you do at Harvey's or Lick's. Which is definitely a plus! The patties are also fresh and not frozen. I was equally impressed with all the gourmet cheese and sauce options.
I actually really like the quality and texture of NY Fries, so it's a bonus for me. I go to the one at Eglinton & Laird and the place is always rammed during the day with people on their lunch break or kids! The line at lunch is usually 8-10 people deep, but it moves quickly.
They also do milkshakes, veggie burgers and a decent poutine with that dark NY Fries gravy.

re: GoodGravy
Yes it is. Awesome onion rings too.
Simple menu. Burger or burger w cheese and/or bacon....sums it up...but very, very good. Good fries too. The Laird location is great.
i tried south street burger at the woodbine location... it seems a bit understaffed as it toook a long time to get order in/receive order. they claim to cook the burger to medium, but it was pretty well done and dry while the fries were undercooked... if i go again i will probably try requesting them to make it as rare as possible.
re: Pigurd
At the midscale fast food burger places, I tend to always ask for it to be "Juicy".
I often gotten some sort of gripe when I ask for anything other than well done. Some places will say they cook to a specific internal temperature (although, I've never seen anyone actually use a thermometer).
If I ask for 'Juicy', then it creates a certain imagery in the cooks mind that may help in getting a non dry burger.
of course, one thing we always lack in the discussion is the specific cook making the burger. Cooking burgers well does take some knowledge and skill. I will assume that many of the min wage cooks at these places don't know any better or could use some better practice.
re: Jamie Eats Burgers
yea, i dont think the cook was particularly skilled... saw him squishing each burger with the spatula
re: Jamie Eats Burgers
They used a thermometer for the first week when the opened at Dufferin and Steeles.
I love the burgers there. They are good. I have one near where I live and go there a few times a month. IMHO its better than Licks for sure!
I have been there many times, usually the one in the big plaza SE of Laird & Eglinton (across from Best Buy). I love the fact they have many different types of toppings, but the main reason I like it is because, being a flexitarian (98% vegetarian but not totally), it's one of the few burger joints that you can get both a vegetarian burger and a whole wheat bun (and I think their milkshakes are made with real milk - imagine that!)
I have also been to the Eglinton and Laird location a couple of times. I'm a lacto-ovo vegetarian and the veggie burger at South St. is really good (I also like the Harvey's veggie burger but it depends on what you're in the mood for). I personally don't get the veggie burger on a whole wheat bun because as a vegetarian everything else I eat is on the healthy scale so this is a "splurge" and I think it tastes better on a white bun. I love that South St., has different kinds of cheeses to choose from too which is cool.
re: Sandybandy
What is it with Laird and Eglinton...? Isn't that where the Olde York or whatever it's called is...the best fish and chip shop in toronto / the world is ?...ps anyone interested in trying a south street burger...they often twitter offers and freebies..but i guess you have to get to Eglinton and Laird to redeem them.
re: delamothe
Agreed. Have been to the Laird location several times. One of the better places as far as fast food burgers go, with decent toppings, and of course the NY Fries. I like that the meat is hormone/antibiotic-free. If there's a line, it moves quickly, and the turnaround is quick with ample seating, so usually it's no problem finding a seat. Definitely not the best burger I've ever had, but it works.
I go to the SSBC at Dufferin and Steeles by Supercenter. My son adores it. I find the burgers pricey for what you get. They're fresh and cooked well but I prefer Licks. I don't know why, I just like the way they taste and the way they fall apart as you eat it so when your done the burger you get to eat the toppings after.

I had a burger and fries at the new location in Ajax the other night. I thought the bun and toppings were excellent...... Cajun onions were very tasty.
Burger dry, fries limp and oily. I read somewhere in the dining room that because they cook from fresh, their burgers 'may contain traces of pink'. Yeah right, mine was taken to well done and beyond. My dining partner said he exact same thing.
re: Dr Butcher
Has anyone tried the chicken burger there? I am hoping they don't overcook that too.
well all my other responses have been deleted, but i think this place is crap.
No kidding they cook it to well done and beyond, because i've certainly never seen anything else. "gourmet" toppings everyone is ranting and raving about shouldn't qualify anything as gourmet. I'd be surprised if theres a single condiment there that isn't out of a bottle or bag.. Just because they have alot of supermarket sauces doesn't make it "gourmet" if you ask me..
re: duckdown
Agree with you on the "gourmet toppings". So, they have a few more different types of mustard. Big deal. I tried the location on Woodbine as it is quite close to where I live. I was underwhelmed. The burger was overcooked and the guy putting the toppings on did not know what he was doing. He piled all the toppings on to one side of the burger, so most of the burger was without any condiments. I actually prefer the taste of McDonalds Angus burger over the one I had at South St.
However, having said all that, this appears to be the only chain burger place that offers hormone and antibiotic free beef. I am giving up eating any other type of meat. So, for that reason alone, I will give them another try.
re: ManAbout
Hormones are not allowed in Canada.
There is a lot of antibiotic free ground beef available, if you look.
If a burger place said they Cumbrae meat, or Loblaw 'Free from', for example, your specs would be met.

re: jayt90
Then why does Health Canada say otherwise?
From the link:
There are six hormonal growth promoters approved in Canada for use in beef cattle: three natural - progesterone, testosterone and estradiol-17ß; and three synthetic - trenbolone acetate (TBA), zeranol and melengestrol acetate (MGA). Hormonal growth promoters are not approved for use in any species other than beef cattle.
re: ManAbout
OK. That means chickens, turkeys, and pork are exempt, but each requires an individual search.
It is easy enough to find "free from" or similar products in a grocery store; but we should demand this from butcher shops and restaurants.
re: jayt90
I think hormones are not allowed in dairy cattle, might of led to some confusion
I've been to the Burlington location. My comments echo many of those already voiced.
The Good - Fresh burgers with no artificial preservatives. Build your own burger with a wide variety of toppings.
The Bad - Would not grill it medium the way I like. (Yes, I know about the risk of bacteria in ground beef.) Burger was a bit on the dry side.
Verdict - Much prefer this over fast food chains. A bit more expensive but better quality. I also like the NYF much better that the frozen, processed fries you get at most of the chains.
re: cynalan
Now I am wondering whether they grill their vegetarian burgers on a separate 'veggie-only' area of the grill or whether I am having my veggie burger cooked on the same place that beef was being grilled on, which would mean I could end up with small bits of meat on my veggie burger. (ok ok I know it's not going to kill me, but still) Does anyone know?
re: Flexitarian
I can't swear to it but I'm pretty sure they were using a separate grill and tongs for the veggie burger.
re: Chester Eleganté
I've only had good experiences at the one located on Islington, south of Norsman, North of the Queensway. I love that place!
re: Chester Eleganté
nailed it
Been to the new Ajax location twice. Not impressed AT ALL. Burgers too dry, and tasteless. Portion sizes too small. Second attempt at dining here, ordered the chicken, found it extremly SALTY!! The only good thing about this place is the new york fries. But def would not order another burger $ 12.00 for a hamburger combo ? Are you kidding me? I get its hormone free and everything, but they're not hormone free gold burgers that your grilling up back there is it? Just curious....
re: traceylee
I wouldn't mind if they actually tasted GOOD..... but they don't taste like ANYTHING.. bland, bland, bland.
No wonder theres 500 condiments to add to your burger -- it doesn't taste like anything without it
re: duckdown
The one and only time I've been, I thought i was funny (in a bad way) how they had this one poster describing how much research went into their burger.
I've had worse, I guess.
re: grandgourmand
Haha, I think I've seen that same poster. They also have a huge sign claiming their burgers are cooked to be pink on the inside, but I haven't really been fortunate enough to have that happen either.
Sure, theres worse, like burger king or mcdonalds.. but this is nowhere near my idea of a great burger when all is said and done.. Love the $1 charge, EACH, for 1 piddly slice of cheese and 2 pieces of thin bacon..
re: traceylee
I agree with traceylee and duckdown. The burgers at the Ajax location, even though they were pink in the middle, seemed dry and lacked flavour. Lots of toppings though. It could also be the fact that I've tried the Burger's Priest and so all other burgers right now can't compare. Also I enjoyed the fries at Burger's Priest more than NY fries (although NY Fries still beats most fast food resto fries).

"I'd have to say it's the best [display] so far [in my time at United] because of the goals and we've not done it in a game of this magnitude. But I want us to do it regularly.
"I hope I can continue the standards set before I came here and that's what I plan to do. The team's performance tonight showed that. It's what's expected here, doing well in the league and cups and I'll try to keep that going."
Moyes is aware that the overall task is not yet finished as Shakhtar Donetsk could still pip the Reds to top spot in Group A with victory at Old Trafford in the final fixture.
"The job is to make sure you qualify," he added. "The next job is to win the group. We want to do well in all competitions. We're in a good run of form, we had a slip-up on Sunday but, in the main, we're doing well. I'm pleased that we're improving all the time."
David Moyes was speaking to Sky Sports and at the post-match press conference.

We report a case of detached ciliary tufts (DCTs) discovered in the aspirate from an epididymal cyst in a 30-year-old man undergoing epididymal exploration for obstructive azoospermia. The specimen was initially misdiagnosed as a parasite due to its appearance and spontaneous motion on fresh smear. Since standard urology and histology texts identify ciliated cells only in the efferent duct of the male genital tract, the source of DCTs in this patient was mysterious. However, on further review, histologic studies have demonstrated that the first portion of the epididymis represents an extension of the efferent ducts and is lined with cilia. The fact that the caput epididymis is composed of branched efferent ducts has significant implications for our understanding of congenital absence of the vas, epididymal sperm aspiration, spermatoceles, and epididymal physiology.

The clubs won't be spinning Britney Spears' new single this weekend.
According to label sources, the official premiere of "Womanizer," Spears' first single off of her upcoming album Circus, has been pushed back due to an undisclosed issue with "the mix"—i.e., not Britney's vocals, per se, but rather how all facets of the track sound together.
Originally set to drop this morning, the masterminds at Jive Records' Zomba Label Group are holding the song for at least another week, meaning radio stations won't be spinning the tune until Sept. 29 at the earliest.
"The mix was not finalized," a source told E! News.
Meanwhile, "Womanizer" isn't a complete mystery to fans anxious for Brit to give 'em more. A fuzzy 40-second clip hit the Internet last week after an intern at a Nashville radio station recorded the tune while previewing it over the phone and posted the snippet on the station's website.
Which promptly removed it at Zomba's behest.
Spears' sixth studio album, Circus, is being prepped for a Dec. 2 debut to coincide with the comebacking pop star's 27th birthday.
Symbolic, no?

We currently have CC3 in School which the users are using and we also had CC4 installed next to it so we can slowly configure and test it ready for rolling out in the Summer. I just wanted people's experiences with doing this and any problems that they faced with particular pieces of software, hardware etc... Here are what systems we currently have:
Sanako digital lab
Has anyone faced any problems with these systems and CC4 or CC4 in general?
Bossman and Webman have just moved from CC3 to CC4 last week so they would be worth talking to as a starting place
We moved from CC3 to CC4 and then moved over to SP1 afterwards.
We had issues but they didn't relate to software you mention. The issues related to the way the server handled the upgrades/rebuilds, as we had about 800 workstations to do. We started off rebuilding 30 at a time, only to be told by RM to only do 10, these took about 2 hours a piece. The other issue related to the RM MMC, this kept crashing but is now fixed.
Some packages will have to be rebuilt, I think the only one that springs to mind is Adobe CS packages. Sims we had to reinstall anyway after a rebuild, Frog we don't use, Securus will work but we no longer use it as it no longer works for us, and Sebalus is fine also.
Best advice would be to 'upgrade' to a vanilla network, we are on CC4, there always seems to be something that is broken, its quite a nightmare sometimes.
We are successfully running SIMS on our Win7 CC4 network. We imported the existing packages from CC3. To replace the EXEs when new versions are out, you just need to export the package, replace the setup EXes, and then re-import. We haven't used any of the other software you mention.
Overall, our CC4 experience has been a rather good one.
'Overall, our CC4 experience has been a rather good one.'
The Gods must look down favourably on you ;-)
Do you use Froglive - I've never managed to get it to work with CC4, although I think there is a new version out now.
We are running SIMS and Securus on our CC4 network with XP and 7 clients without any problems. Like others have said RM provide the SIMS client packages that you can download and import to the console. With Securus we just imported the client package that was in use on our CC3 network before.

Randomized Control Trial of a Topical Anesthetic to Evaluate Pain and Anxiety During Venipuncture
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- Study Results
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the amount of anxiety and pain felt by children during procedures that require a needle stick after using a topical anesthetic or placebo cream.
Drug: 4% lidocaine topical anesthetic cream
Drug: Placebo cream
Phase 4
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial to Evaluate Pain and Anxiety During Venipuncture in Pediatric Patients With or Without Pre-treatment by a Topical Anesthetic
- Pain From Venipuncture [ Time Frame: Pain was measured immediately after venipuncture. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Pain was measured immediately after venipuncture by the participant using the six-point FACES scale. "FACES" in not an acronym, but rather a description of a pain scale that uses pictures of faces in various states of pain. The FACES pain scale is a common scale used to measure pain with scores on a scale. The scale we used had six points from zero (0) to five (5) indicating different levels of pain. Lower scores indicate lower levels of pain, and higher scores indicate higher levels of pain.
- Anxiety of Venipuncture [ Time Frame: During venipuncture ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Participant anxiety was measured by the study participant and the objective observer before (anticipatory), during (venipuncture) and after (recovery) venipuncture using a validated visual analog scale (VAS). The VAS is a validated scale that is used to detect small changes in many types of observations. The scale ranges from 0-100 scores on a scale, and here the higher scores indicate higher anxiety levels. Only the participant's mean venipuncture (during venipuncture) anxiety scores are presented in outcome measure results here.
|Study Start Date:
|March 2003
|Study Completion Date:
|February 2008
|Primary Completion Date:
|February 2008 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
Active Comparator: 4% lidocaine topical anesthetic cream
This group received topical 4% lidocaine anesthetic cream under occlusive dressing for 15 minutes prior to needle stick.
Drug: 4% lidocaine topical anesthetic cream
A dollop of 4% lidocaine cream was applied under occlusive dressing for 15 mins prior to venipuncture
Other Name: 4% liposomal lidocaine (Brand name = LMX4)
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
This group received matching placebo cream under occlusive dressing for 15 minutes prior to needle stick.
Drug: Placebo cream
A dollop of matching placebo cream was applied under occlusive dressing for 15 mins prior to venipuncture
Other Name: Placebo cream
Detailed Description:
Pediatric patients frequently receive eutectic mixture of local anesthetics (EMLA) or other anesthetic medications prior to venipuncture. However, the time for the anesthetic to take affect is approximately 60 minutes. Another anesthetic medication besides EMLA is lidocaine 4% topical anesthetic cream (LMX4), which has a shorter acting time (30 minutes) compared to the EMLA, making it a more desirable medication when urgent labs are required. This medication is being evaluated to assess the anxiety and pain associated with venipuncture in 15 minutes versus the approved 30 minutes of pediatric patients treated as an inpatient or outpatient in the local Emergency Department, compared to standard care (no prior treatment).
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|5 Years to 18 Years
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- children ages 5-18 years of age
- treated as an inpatient or outpatient at Lehigh Valley Hospital within the past 24 hours
- venipuncture order, and that order is their initial venipuncture order (required within 30 mins)

Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) swung to a second-quarter loss as the Internet retail heavyweight's expansion plans continued to weigh on results, though revenue kept strengthening.
For the third quarter, the company forecast an operating loss between $65 million and $440 million, and revenue of $15.45 billion to $17.15 billion. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected revenue of $16.98 billion.
Amazon has spent heavily to build out new distribution centers closer to urban hubs, as well as to develop new technology like its Kindle Fire tablet computers and bring in new content for its streaming movie business. Amid the rapid expansion, Amazon has been willing to sacrifice short-term profits--as its quarterly results have recently shown--in an effort to garner customer loyalty, though investors have been looking for the company to boost its narrow profit margins.
The Seattle-based retailer has been working to keep pace with Netflix Inc. (NFLX) in offering streaming content such as movies and television shows. It signed a multi-year deal with Viacom Inc. (VIA, VIAB), for instance, during the quarter for thousands of new shows.
Amazon reported a loss of $7 million, or two cents a share, compared with a year-earlier profit of $7 million, or a penny a share. Analysts had expected a profit of five cents a share.
Net sales improved 22% to $15.7 billion. The company had forecast $14.5 billion to $16.2 billion.
Gross margin widened to 28.6% from 26.1%.
Operating expenses were up 23% in the latest quarter. Its operating income was $79 million, compared with the company's April prediction of results ranging from a profit of $10 million to a loss of $340 million.
Costs associated with its warehouse and distribution centers rose to $1.84 billion from $1.36 billion in the quarter last year.
Technology and content costs, which include Kindle-related expenses and licensing for media such as video streamed through Amazon's Prime service, rose to $1.59 billion from $1.08 billion.
Shares closed Thursday at $303.40 and were down 2.3% after hours. The stock is up 21% so far this year.

Performing: Pulled Apart by Horses, Menace Beach and TRAAMS
More information about Pulled Apart By Horses tickets
With support from - Menace Beach + Traams
Pulled Apart By Horses are less a gang and more one big fucked-up dysfunctional family. The Leeds quartet are a tightly-knit rock band who make music that thrills and menaces, their songs armed with suckerpunch riffs and zinging choruses. They formed in 2008 out of the ashes of various bands in Leeds. Since then they have existed in their own chaotic ecosystem, embarking on relentless tours around the world and stopping only to make 2010's punkily infectious self-titled debut and its snarling 2012 follow-up 'Tough Love' (produced by Gill Norton - Pixies/Foo Fighters etc.) . Everything they've done has been drenched in a sense of youthful recklessness, of all or nothing ardour. With third album 'Blood' they have taken things a step forward with wider musical and lyrical themes, embracing their love of psychedelic cinema and developing as a band whilst retaining the thrilling 'Horses' sound.
Pulled Apart By Horses' third album is called 'Blood' because this is what they are to each other: a family where Lee is the dad ("he wins all the arguments), James the mum ("he worries and just wants to make sure everyone is ok") and Tom and Rob the errant children. It is a record about the bond between the four of them. 'Tough Love' was a reference to that kinship too, but the new record represents solidarity and strength. It's an album that will bring Britain's most exciting young rock band to a whole new audience. "We wanna prove we're a serious band," says James. "And not a serious band who've lost every bit of emotion, we're still a bunch of yappy little terriers," adds Tom. Pulled Apart By Horses can't wait for you to hear the mind-blowing new album they've made. They are itching to be released from their stable.
Pulled Apart By Horses have confirmed details of a short November tour, which includes shows in Brighton, Birmingham, Bristol and London, among other dates.
Heaven takes the needs of disabled customers very seriously and actively encourages people of all abilities to attend the events scheduled at their venue. Please email email@example.com or call 0207 930 2020 for specific requests, enquiries or comments regarding access/personal needs and a member of our team will endeavor to accommodate such requirements.

Swollen Members are at the Aggie on May 20 at 7pm. Tickets are available at the Aggie or through their website at: www.battleaxe.com/events.
May 30: Drunken Cuddle
'Outlaw Country' has become a favorite term to describe Drunken Cuddle's fun, melodic and strong rhythms. Opening for musicians such as The Yawpers, Champagne Charlie, Matt Mahern and Lou Shields, Drunken Cuddle has made their name a regular in the local arena. The Denver trio, with Erik Arvoy on guitar, Katie Sternig on drums and Tony Meggitt on harmonica, combine punk, rock, folk and country to give us some twangin' foot tapping knee slaps! Catch them at the Aggie with The Billy Goats, Two Car Garage and Chad Price on May 30. Tickets are $8 and doors open at 7pm.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama isn't giving up his BlackBerry - at least not for now.
The White House is shooting down the notion that Obama's device is caught up in a pilot program designed to transition away from BlackBerry smartphones.
The pilot program is being carried out by the White House Communications Agency. It's part of the Defense Department and is responsible for making sure Obama has communications capabilities wherever he goes.
But White House spokesman Jay Carney says the Executive Office of the President isn't participating in any pilot programs affecting their hand-held devices.
U.S. government agencies have been one of the last bastions for BlackBerry Ltd. The company pioneered the smartphone in 1999 but has since been hammered by competition from the iPhone and Android-based rivals.

Quit Exposing Yourself - Making your Skirt "Bike-able"
How To Keep Your Skirt Down While Riding A Bike? JUST NEED A PENNY AND A RUBBER BAND
We love bikes. We love skirts. But sometimes these two don't mix well.
Which is why we came up with Penny in Yo' Pants. An easy solution to making your skirt bikeable.
How to make me:
1. Find a penny or something similar.
2. Find a rubber band.
3. Now put on your favourite skirt!
4. Push the penny from the back of your skirt to the front, through both layers.
5. Form a button at the front of the skirt, using both layers.
6. Wrap the band around the button making sure it's secure.
7. Now get out there and enjoy your new freedom!
Check out our website at www.pennyinyourpants.co.uk. We will be making a slicker model shortly that will be even better than a penny and a rubber band (imagine that). Proceeds will go to get more women on bikes around the world!

While rival Texas has been rolling out its cash cow Longhorn Network, top-ranked Oklahoma has been working to expand its television capabilities, too.
Reporters were given a tour Tuesday of the university's
SoonerVision HD production rooms that have been expanded through $5
million in improvements in recent years. With fiber-optic cables
connecting the school's athletic venues to side-by-side control
rooms, Oklahoma plans to broadcast and webcast dozens more sporting
events this year in high definition.
It's another step toward the school's ultimate goal of launching
its own around-the-clock network in a quickly expanding television
marketplace for college sports.
Yet executive director of video production Brandon Meier says
Oklahoma would need more infrastructure to launch a rival to the
Longhorn Network created through a $300 million deal between Texas
and ESPN.

Doubts setting in for Novak Djokovic?
MELBOURNE, Australia -- Novak Djokovic did exactly what he wanted against Lleyton Hewitt in the early stages of Monday's hotly anticipated clash at the Australian Open.
The world No. 1 took the crowd on Rod Laver Arena out of the match by getting off to a sizzling start. But then a strange thing happened; very strange -- and slightly worrying for Djokovic's supporters.
Up two sets and 3-0 in the third, the wheels came off. Djokovic was stretched to four sets and even had to fend off a break point in the infancy of the fourth when the score was tied.
He finally put the banged-up Hewitt away 6-1, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3 to reach the quarterfinals.
"It was so unusual, and because of that, alarm bells," said Mark Woodforde, half of the legendary "Woodies" doubles team and now an analyst with Australian television. "Djokovic was just playing at such a high level. Then to kind of bottom out. Hewitt's dogged determination got him back in there, but I don't know whether it was exceptional play by him or Djokovic becoming really frail."
The statistics suggest it was the latter.
Djokovic's serve and forehand, in particular, tailed off. In the first two sets, he made a combined five forehand unforced errors. The number rose to 14 in the last two. His first-serve percentage fell in the middle of the third, and overall Djokovic was broken four times.
"Certainly noticed the first-serve percentage disappeared, and the forehand," Woodforde said. "He was able to fight off any opponent with those two specific shots in 2011. I think in the past, when he was forming as a tennis player, there was so much pressure on his serve, and hence that kind of shaky technique. And when it was really falling apart, his forehand looked like the obvious weakness. I was surprised it showed up last night. If I was one of his opponents, I would think that there's some glimmer of hope."
Djokovic explained the reasons for the blip, and he indeed knew it was a blip, after the match.
"Between that part, 3-0, third set and the beginning of the fourth, I wasn't moving at all," he said. "I was pretty passive in the rallies, giving him the opportunity to come in. But look, you must expect that you experience some lows, not only highs."
Djokovic's next opponent, fifth seed David Ferrer, is similar to Hewitt: He hustles for every ball and is a fine returner. But at this juncture of their careers, he's better than Hewitt. Mind you, Ferrer won't be the overwhelming crowd favorite Wednesday, as "Rusty" was.
"He's been a top-five player for a long time," Djokovic said. Ferrer won't be overawed confronting the man who won three of the four Grand Slams last year, especially if he watched the end of Monday night's affair.
He topped Djokovic at the year-end championships in London in December, and even if the Serb was fatigued, Ferrer will take confidence from the 6-3, 6-1 victory indoors.
That result allowed Ferrer, a semifinalist in Melbourne last year, to edge closer in their head to heads. He trails 6-5.
Ferrer was his usual humble self when looking ahead to the match.
"He is the world No. 1 and is better than me at everything," Ferrer told reporters in Spanish. "I'll try to play at a good pace, play my game. I'm not going to do anything different because I'm playing Djokovic. What happens is that I'll have to play aggressively and play the important points better than in a normal match."
Woodforde said Djokovic will have more to answer because of his lapse versus Hewitt. But added, "If he played like he did at the start, I think he'll handle Ferrer."
It's not a massive "if," but Djokovic's mid-match swoon against Hewitt raised some doubts.
Prediction: Djokovic in four.
Andy Murray (4) versus Kei Nishikori (24)
Nishikori became the first Japanese man to reach a Grand Slam quarterfinal since his mentor, Shuzo Matsuoka, in 1995 and the first to reach a quarterfinal at the Australian Open in the Open era. As such, the buzz back home has been ample.

And when asked what the past 24 hours have been like, his agent at IMG, Olivier van Lindonk, replied in an email: "Busy!! From a business point of view [we've] been very active in the past years setting up the platform to make him one of the biggest earners in tennis. Every time he breaks records, this platform keeps growing. Obviously all the people that have helped him over the years have reached out."
Including Matsuoka.
In Murray, Nishikori -- who last season surpassed Matsuoka as Japan's highest-ranked men's player ever -- battles a similarly well-sponsored athlete.
At this stage, however, Murray is the better player, well rested and eased past Nishikori in Shanghai in October.
Prediction: Murray in three.
Maria Sharapova (4) versus Ekaterina Makarova
Monday turned out to be a great day for Sharapova. Not only did she rally to beat heavy serving German Sabine Lisicki, but the flat-hitting Makarova, ranked 56th, took care of Serena Williams.
Slam Central
For comprehensive coverage of the Australian Open, check out Slam Central and stay informed of everything going on in Melbourne. More »
It means Sharapova gets her fellow Russian in the quarterfinals instead of Williams, who crushed the fourth seed in their last meeting in California in the summer.
"Either way, it doesn't matter," Sharapova said. "For [Makarova] to come in and win in straight sets and to play at that level means she's obviously on a pretty big high note right now confidence-wise. And that's always dangerous."
But how many times have we seen a player fall flat following a major upset?
Prediction: Sharapova in two.
Petra Kvitova (2) versus Sara Errani
Errani is a diminutive Italian who chases every ball, which can be highly frustrating for opponents. And like Makarova she'll be full of confidence, given she's advanced to her first Grand Slam quarterfinal. Call it a surprise that it happened away from Roland Garros.
Errani, No. 48, didn't need to beat anyone in the top 30 to progress to the last eight, although she routed an in-form Zheng Jie in the fourth round.
Kvitova, the towering Wimbledon champion, mostly impressed in a straight-set win over Ana Ivanovic.
Errani will need Kvitova to have a major off day to go any further.
Prediction: Kvitova in two.

How many times must a man look up Before he can see the sky? Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have Before he can hear people cry? Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows That too many people have died? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind.
In the dime stores and bus stations, people talk of situations, read books, repeat quotations, draw conclusions on the wall.
They say everything can be replaced, Yet every distance is not near. So I remember every face Of every man who put me here. I see my light come shining From the west unto the east. Any day now, any day now, I shall be released.
At the corrida we'll sit in the shade and watch the young torero stand alone. We'll drink tequila where our grandfathers stayed, when they rode with Villa into Torreón. Then the padre will recite the prayers of old in the little church this side of town. I will wear new boots and an earring of gold, you'll shine with diamonds in your wedding gown.
A question in your nerves is litYet you know there is no answer fitTo satisfy, insure you not to quitTo keep it in your mind and not forgetThat it is not he or she or them or it that you belong to...
they say every man needs protection, they say every man must fall. yet I swear I see my reflection,some place high above this wall.....and someday I shall be released.Bob Dylan · Dylan ·
Well...you know, you can influence all kinds of people, but sometimes it gets in the way -- especially if somebody is accusing you of influencing somebody that you had no interest in influencing in the first place.
You're born, you know, the wrong names, wrong parents. I mean, that happens. You call yourself what you want to call yourself. This is the land of the free.

Mariah Carey on Larry King: I've Been Abused Emotionally, Mentallyby Free Britney at . Comments
Earlier today, we saw Rihanna on Good Morning America recalling her assault at the hands of Chris Brown, and how difficult it was for her to break the cycle.
Asked about Rihanna last night on Larry King Live, Mariah Carey admitted she's faced her own difficult relationships, and that "abuse has several categories."
"[I have been abused] Emotionally, mentally," Mariah said in response to King's query of whether she had ever faced a situation similar to that of Rihanna.
Not unlike her battered counterpart, Carey says the hardest part was breaking free from ex-husband Tommy Mottola, whom she doesn't mention by name.
Check out a clip of Mariah Carey on Larry King below ...
"You get into a situation and you feel locked in," she said.
"For me, to really get out was extremely difficult because there was connection that was not only a marriage, but a business thing where the person was completely in control of my life. I was in a situation where I wasn't let out of the house."
When asked for her thoughts on Rihanna's struggles, she reacts the way many of us have: "Yikes," she says, "I can't even imagine what she went through."
Carey isn't the only one to broach the topic of emotional abuse lately.
Hailey Glassman, Jon Gosselin's now-ex-girlfriend, made a similar allegeation against the d-bag around the time of their split. It's not something to take lightly.
MARIAH IS THE BEST F ALL U HATERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Her music has mentally abused me for years.
Honestly this confession makes me wonder if this is some kind of promotion thing for her to or something. Terrified that Rhianna is going to take away from her spotlight or something but regardless I can empathize with her, being abused is a serious situation but I also agree with what seriously says above.
hmm she is annoying i hate her
you know what.....I have limited sypmathy for anyone in this kind of relationship that willingly continues to be in that relationship, knowing the damage it is doing...then, they want sympathy for remaining in the situation for as long as they did.....IT is seld destructive and I personally consider it a synmpathy seeking, attention syndrome....it is just as bad as what the abuser does. I have overcome my own abuse, yet...I seek no sympathy...I seek strength and urge women and men in abusive relationships to leave them. This is the fix...easy does it. The longer it is prolonged, the more damamging and controlling it becomes....take the control, stop giving it up!!

It has finally got to the stage where I wish to enable proxy authentication on our TMG 2010 box. We historically have never had authentication for web access, and also have never logged any access info either.
As part of our plan to be able to better see what kids are up to at a local level, I wish to enable authentication and logging so that I can pull up a nice log and see that joebloggs accessed http://naughtysite.com at 12:35 etc...
Problem is, I do not wish for the pupils or staff to have to enter any form of login details to do this. We currently use internet explorer everywhere so I am assuming it can handle simple passthrough NTLM integrated authentication.
So, could someone give me some pointers on how to set this up? I gather that in my web access policy, I need to change the Users for the web rule to 'All Authenticated Users' rather than 'All Users', but as it stands the logs only show 'anonymous' still, and therefore, block the connections.

By Philip Scranton

In June 1931, with the U.S. economy in a depression and leaf tobacco prices at 20-year lows, R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. decided to increase the price of Camel cigarettes.

This proved a truly bad idea. And the response of consumers and competitors offers a telling example of how the Great Depression was upending industry after industry. Increasing the price of a pack of 20 cigarettes to 15 cents from 14 cents launched a price war that undermined Big Tobacco's hold on a shrinking market.

First, the company's key competitors -- American Tobacco, Philip Morris and Liggett & Myers -- matched the price hike. But by fall, a small Virginia-based tobacco firm, Larus & Brother, had put out a new cigarette brand called White Rolls at just 10 cents a pack.

Tobacco was so cheap two years into the Depression that small firms could undercut the four largest companies' nationally advertised brands and still make money. Brown & Williamson sold Wings cigarettes for 10 cents, and other small operations jumped in. By 1932, the bargain brands held 10 percent of the market, selling on price and doing little advertising.

That summer, the Internal Revenue Service reported that revenue from the 6 cents-a-pack cigarette tax had declined by $41 million from the previous year. Cigarette sales had fallen 11 percent, and the Wall Street Journal predicted an even larger production decline in the year ahead. Meanwhile, the companies selling the cheaper cigarettes were grabbing bigger shares of a shrinking market. As the Wall Street Journal reported:

One of the makers has been turning them out for four months. In that time his sales have been extended into only 11 states. Yet his factory is working 24 hours a day. He is swamped by orders to the extent that buyers are offering cash and a premium for early deliveries.

The "Big Four" cigarette companies circulated ads claiming that the cheaper brands used inferior tobacco leaves, but neither consumers nor investors were impressed. Sales of 10-cent packs continued to soar, and in October, Liggett & Myers shares fell 19 percent, while American Tobacco stock dropped 13 percent.

The media finally caught on. The press had failed to cover the 10-cent cigarette boom "because of a traditional journalistic policy that those who do not advertise and have no intention of advertising are no fit subjects for publicity," Time magazine wrote. Still, the cigarette price war had become hard to ignore now that the lower-priced cigarettes were "burning up at the rate of about 60 million a day."

Fortune magazine suggested possible responses for the big companies: buying more tobacco to raise prices; creating special "fighting brands" to sell for 10 cents; circulating negative advertisements; and cutting prices on their leading brands. None of these steps looked attractive, and all would be costly.

Meanwhile, by the end of October, the 10-cent makers commanded 23 percent of the U.S. market, Time reported. Truly, Big Tobacco's tycoons "were vexed."
