italian unions
Fiat spent much of 2011 jousting with Italian labor unions over contracts and plant security. The matter was finally resolved in December when Fiat signed new labor agreements, but a sign of Fiat's take on the matter was its departure from Confindustria, an Italian business group, over concerns ...
Fiat claims that it is on pace to earn two billion euros ($2.8 billion in U.S. funds) in 2010. Good news to be sure, but Reuters reports that CEO Sergio Marchionne says that the company's five factories in Italy contribute exactly zero percent of that profit due to the country's rigid unions.

CHEERS to the Fort Wayne Philharmonic for a great program, Schubert: Revealed.
BRICE and DeLORA FENNIG Berne
CHEERS to everyone who came out to the Northern Indiana Pet Expo to support the Allen County SPCA. More than 3,800 people and their pets were in attendance, up 44 percent from last year. CHEERS also to the hundreds of shelter pets who found their forever homes at the Pet Expo and to all the vendors and sponsors who made our event so successful. On behalf of everyone at the Allen County SPCA, thank you for choosing pet adoption.
JESSICA J. HENRY Director Allen County SPCA
CHEERS to the kind strangers who helped me while I was in line at Wal-Mart on Lima Road on April 7, paying for my groceries. I realized I was $8 short. I was so embarrassed. I decided to put some items back when a lady behind me said to wait; she could give me $3 to help. Then a gentleman, also behind me, pulled out $5 to pay the rest. I wanted to cry. I thanked them profusely over and over. I will pay it forward.
JAN KRUGER Fort Wayne
CHEERS to the people who stopped to offer help when my car gave out April 19 on Dupont Road. It was a very upsetting experience, but all of you were so very nice. I came through with more good faith that there are really nice people in this crazy world. A special thanks to M.B. and the tow truck driver.
PAT MENDENHALL Fort Wayne
CHEERS to the person in the black Arcadia who was in front of me at Panda Express North on April 26. I was having such a crappy day and you paid for my lunch – which brought me right out of my funk and jolted me into how I know people really are, generous and good.
EMILY MUNK Churubusco
CHEERS to the kind lady who paid my bill on April 23 at Jamison's Meats. I couldn't find my billfold. I went to the parking lot to find it (I did). When I returned, she had already paid her bill and mine, too. She was gone so I couldn't thank her. I want her to know I appreciate her kindness and I will pass it on.
JOE BARILE Fort Wayne
CHEERS for the recent Youtheatre production of Anansi the Spider. It was an energized spectacle, starring an elephant the size of a van and a spider that was bigger than some closets. Director Leslie Hormann took the Youtheatre to a new level, weaving puppets, dancers, and the Three Rivers Jenbe Drum Ensemble into a magical tale. She added black light to tell the story of Anansi's six sons.
Byron Thompson, visual arts teacher at Weisser Park Elementary School, designed and produced the puppets. Anansi himself wore a striking yellow top hat (don't all spiders?). You could see the fuzz on his puppet legs. An added pleasure was hearing the Voices of Unity choir, directed by Marshall White. There's another Fort Wayne treasure.
In the early 1970s, Gerald McDermott, author/artist of the Anansi tales, visited Fort Wayne to work with FWCS teachers/students for a few days. His book won the prestigious Caldecott Award for children's art in 1972. How delighted McDermott would have been to see our own Youtheatre production of the Anansi tale.
Congratulations to all the performers for teaching us that oral history is an important part of our culture and for giving us a delightful production.

Nick Cannon Confirms Reports of Split From Mariah Carey
The rumors were true!
The rumors were true!
Mariah Carey has earned many nicknames throughout her 24 year career: Mirage, M, Mimi, Imperfect Angel. Well now the diva has christened herself 'The Elusive Chanteuse'. The label is just a small part of the title of the singer's forthcoming 14th studio album.
Jimmy Fallon seems to be off to an amazing start as new host of The Tonight Show. His first night was a huge ratings win for NBC. But perhaps some of his Hollywood peers didn't think he was up for the challenge, and bet against his success. Because everyone from Lady Gaga to Mariah Carey to Lindsay Lohan turned up to pay their debt.
Mariah Carey has finally set a release date for her oft-delayed 12th studio effort The Art of Letting Go. The album comes out on May 6 and, in true Mariah fashion, it's first single is a romantic ballad called 'You're Mine (Eternal)'.
No one loves Mariah Carey more than Mariah Carey. And it's clear in the video promo for her new music that she's done fighting the 'diva' stigma. Carey is fully embracing the label and tooting her own horn in a new 2-minute clip announcing her upcoming album.
Mariah Carey is practicing 'The Art of Letting Go'. In this powerful new and retro-sounding ballad, the powerhouse vocalist is reminding the world, and maybe even adversaries like Adele, of her striking singing ability.
What's it like to get Mariah Carey to read from a script? Ask the staff at BET. Its fumbly, stumbly, and full of random breakouts into song and berating the film crew. We get just over two minutes of this gem, but Mimi's rambling probably went on for much longer, lol
These days Mariah Carey's in a sling, thanks to the busted shoulder and bruised ribs she sustained on the set of her latest video. But that's getting off easy compared to the duel between Mimi and her evil twin Bianca in the clip for 'Heartbreaker' from the 1999 album Rainbow.
When Mariah Carey appeared as a social worker in the Oscar-nominated movie Precious, she purposely toned down her diva looks. In the latest movie from that same director, Lee Daniels, she's repeating the process.
Talk about 'one and done'.....
Mariah Carey fans know just how 'festive' the star can be when the holidays hit. But this Easter the diva took the celebration to costumey level, even managing to get hubby Nick Cannon in on the action.
'Almost Home' is the new single from Mariah Carey, appearing on the soundtrack for the film Oz the Great and Powerful. For the music video Mariah leaves the color to the movie clips, while remains black and white in the face of a wind machine so powerful it could rival the original Wizard of Oz twister.

United, beware! Olympique Lyonnais have their own Cristiano Ronaldo. His name? Hatem Ben Arfa. And though still only 20, he's far from a newcomer – his first game in Ligue 1 was in August 2004, a 1-0 victory at Nice.
Back then, he was seen as a talented amateur, and freely admits playing fast and loose with some of the strictures imposed on a professional athlete. Off the pitch, that is. On it, his incredible ease with the ball was not always a help either.
A talented player with immense potential, he was by turns breathtaking and frustrating. Many doubted his ability to succeed at the highest level, but after a series of false starts – he scored just once in 2006/07 – he is now serving up healthy slices of humble pie to his critics.
Against Toulouse, in mid-January, Ben Arfa was flying. "His first half was out of this world," says Pierre Michaud, a journalist with French TV station, Euronews. And Michaud knows what he's talking about, having seen almost every match at Lyon's Stade Gerland in the last five years.
"He's so unpredictable," he says, an adjective that crops up time and again in analysis of Ben Arfa's game. "He really makes it happen because he's such a powerful, offensive force."
Michaud likens Ben Arfa to former Lyon academy starlet, Steed Malbranque, but it's arguable that he is now closer to the Premier League's premier wide player: Ronaldo. The lofty parallels don't stop there. Alongside Marseille midfielder Samir Nasri, Ben Arfa has been dubbed the 'new Zidane' in France.
To be fair, Ben Arfa's promising season has, in part, been made possible thanks to the emerging talent of his attacking colleague, Karim Benzema. Also 20, Benzema seems to be the final piece of the jigsaw neatly assembled by coach Alain Perrin.
Benzema, too, is a phenomenon. The youngster is a hybrid of Wayne Rooney and Ryan Giggs with the nous of Teddy Sheringham; the resultant package

A beautiful, pure-hearted young woman, Maleficent has an idyllic life growing up in a peaceable forest kingdom, until one day when an invading army threatens the harmony of the land.

As the child grows, Maleficent realizes that Aurora holds the key to peace in the kingdom - and to Maleficent's true happiness as well.

Panama City, FL-- We start with some high school basketball action and a matchup of two of this area's better boy's teams. Niceville, a 5-A region champ last year, coming east to take on the Rutherford Rams, who made it to the 4-A state final last year. Eagles 4-2 coming in, Rams 4 and oh, let's get to the highlights.
Pick it up second quarter, the Rams with a 12 point lead just before the half, but the Eagles rallying, first it's inside to AJ Tillman who lays it in, then on the break, good ball movement, winds up in the hands of Shane Horton who hits the short jumper, that Rams lead just 3 at the half, 29-26.
Third quarter, the Rams coming back to life, they're working the break, ahead to Williamson who goes for the alley oop, John Wade makes it work.
Then it's Tony Mixon looking for somebody to pass it to, they leave him alone, so he shoots and scores....then it's Williamson in the corner for another three, Rutherford regains control and keeps it
¶the rest of the way, getting a ten point win, 64-54. Wade with 25 points, 18 rebounds. Rams now five and oh, Eagles 4-3.

Let's be frank—Pregnant women are beautiful, but some of the photographs we take of them are HORRIFIC. Simply HORRIFIC. And I don't mean that it's awful that we see their uncovered pregnant forms or anything (remember, the ladies themselves are beautiful), but, lately, in the race to create the most Pinterest-friendly maternity photos, pregnant women have been subjected to a level of photographic flourishes and clichés that would make an Anne Geddes baby cringe. Props are involved, Photoshop is unleashed, hearts are painted on bellies—cuteness is MANUFACTURED and those manufactured photos can take the most natural thing in the world and make it feel surprisingly unnatural and forced.

The Burger King in San Francisco made a Proud Whopper:
President Obama recently signed an executive order to force equality in employment for federal contractors (basically ENDA), this is why it's needed.
The HObby Lobby decision was horrible for women, of course. But now it's being used to discriminate against the LGBT community in employment (see above), justifying discrimination and may affect the research of HIV/AIDS
In case you missed it, this amazing video from Weird Al:
The intro of Futurama recreated in 3d. And it looks amazing!
It's fan made, but this is a really good promo for the next season of American Horror Story!
And finally, the trailer for the final Hobbit movie

Gawker's new project is kind of like a meme Snopes. Check it out.
A great write-up of the music of Supernatural, which plays such a big role in the show. I'll hear a song they used, and get transported back to it instantly.
And also in music, the soundtrack for the Guardians of the Galaxy, Awesome Mix Vol. 1 looks great!
Hobby Lobby is having a big affect on the LGBT community, sadly. Companies are coming out of the woodwork asking for exemptions, on the same grounds (closely held religious believes) to discriminate in their hiring practices, other companies are looking to drop all coverage for HIV medication and now the major lobbying groups are revoking their support for ENDA since it doesn't go nearly far enough. Lots of fall out. I may expand this into a separate post just to go over everything.
And speaking of contraception, isn't it amazing that when you use science (testable, observable results) and not just screaming ignorance and fear, you see that access to contraception decreases the abortion rate significantly?
I love Kristin Wiig, and love Bill Hader, this looks amazing:
Nerd alert: The new edition of D&D (okay, keep judging, it's okay) actually has a great and geeky passage about gender/sexuality:
You don't need to be confined to binary notions of sex and gender," the new rules state. "You can play as a male or female character without gaining any special benefits or hindrances. Think about how your character does or does not conform to the broader culture's expectations of sex, gender and sexual behavior. For example, a male drow cleric defies the traditional gender divisions of drow society, which could be a reason for your character to leave that society and come to the surface."
And sometimes I forget how dumb people are. Some people are taking Steven Spielberg to task...for apparently hunting a triceratops.
Every. Campfire. Ever. Entirely accurate.
That's it for now, enjoy the weekend everybody!Add a comment
Happy Easter! May the blood of Jesus, spilled for you, splatter your holiday with warm crimson cheer.
Fairly quick update, let's see what we have today. First up, appropriate for Independence Day:
While I think people should be honest, especially about their flaws, before getting married, I think this new "shadow wedding" trend is a bit much. But hey, if it gets people into nature, maybe it's a good thing.
Stefon from SNL's Weekend Update was one of my favorite recurring characters. Here's a map of some of his more famous suggestions.
Now that a bunch of countries have pulled their foreign aid for Uganda due to their draconian anti-gay laws, their president now says accepting foreign aid is 'sinful.'

Um, how stupid can a (Republican) politician be about climate change? That's a serious question, because I think he just gave me an aneurysm reading his absolutely moronic comments.
The final book of "The Magicians" trilogy hits shelves on August 5, and I can't wait (I'm rereading the books in anticipation). The trailer, featuring and fans and some really, really big names in literature, just dropped. Check it out.

Quick update, in case you haven't seen it, the second season of Orange is The New Black (which I'm almost done with), has an awesome extended trailer:
Amazing idea to help combat the anti-choice protesters.
I'm not this far in the books, but in Book 4 of A Song of Ice and Fire, there is a fictional board game, that a fan had 3D printed!

First up today, this amazing, working Lego Zelda lamp.
Also on Nerdist, would you be brave enough to use this hand-crafted Jumanji board? I wouldn't.
All State teamed up with a favorite artist of mine, Eli Lieb, and their resulting campaign video will hit you right in the feels:
New propaganda posters for the next Hunger Games movie, although I don't quite get the one for District 6. Does he have tires for legs, or just pants that look like tires?
Surviving the World on guns. Yes, all of this.
If you haven't seen it yet, the awesome new video (of course) from OK Go:
Want to be Mega Man? Of course you do!
Hey look, people realize that greater LGBT visibility drives down youth suicide. Glad to hear someone talking about this.
Also, I get confused as to why a leader of a hate group agrees that we don't choose to be gay, but still thinks we don't deserve any rights.
And again, Surviving the World hits it on the head! Kind of my mantra for adventures:

In case you missed it, NPH (who won the Tony for this role, along with his co-star, Lena Hall) performed "Sugar Daddy" from the show I went to NYC to see (which won for best musical revival). This was how it was performed at the Belasco, complete with carwash, making out with audience members (this time, his fiance) and lap dances:
A piano showed up in NYC in the East River.
There are a lot of hateful parts of Christianity. Case in point, the Southern Baptists have denounced the very existence of trans* people.

Alright, let's see what we have today. First up, a new species of crocodile has been named after Tolkien's Balrog!
Orange is the New Black came back yesterday, and they made this great promo clip:
Oh god, this may in fact, be the most meta thing ever (at least in terms of the Internet).
Today in wasted money for scientific studies.
The US teen pregnancy rate has fallen to historic lows! Which is great news (except it's still way high compared to other developed nations), but it's because of access to birth control, women's health clinics and abortion services and comprehensive sex ed. Imagine that.
So John Oliver set out to save Net Neutrality, and in doing so, released the Internet Trolls, which brought down the FCC's comment page:
Garfunkle and Oates, one of my favorite comedy bands, have a new show coming to IFC which will debut in August!
It's Pride month. Need some help understanding the T in LGBT? Here's a great article from the Good Men Project. The Post Gazette is also running a great long-form series, check it out.
Shockingly, women aren't really welcomed at gay orgys. A great read from The Stranger/HuffPo.
The (designated hate group) AFA is telling members to return to sender any mail using the Harvey Milk Stamp. I prefer the Ken Jennings (of Jeopardy fame) idea of using both Milk and Charleston Heston stamps on the same envelope with little hearts around them both.

In less than a year since Windsor, every single state will have marriage equality or their ban will be challenge. North Dakota completes the sweep.
A porn website gave America wood...by planting trees in honor of Arbor Day. Well done.
More snark: remember, the Russian Orthodox Church hates gays. But men in dresses, that's okay.
When straight guys are exposed to Grindr:
An awesome comic from Surviving the World. Points if you get the reference!
Joe the Plumber is an idiot and an insensitive asshole. Seriously.
And so is Adam Carolla. Sorry my existence is so troubling to you.
Okay, last asshole of the day: this college that removed every single copy of the student newspaper rather than let an article run that described how hard it is to be gay on their campus.
Check out the trailer for "Internet Machine" which details the actual infrastructure that makes the web.
This however, looks even better:
This is interesting and confusing. The brains of gay men who adopt through surrogacy rewire themselves to exhibit traits of both moms and dads.
The Rams, who drafted the first openly gay player (Michael Sam), also drafted the first African American player.
This, by the way, is how to talk to kids about Michael Sam:
The backlash was swift, but these kinds of things are very legal.
Janet Mock flips the table. Which is awesome. An Australian diver does something similar, also awesome!
A story with a happy ending, I mean, as much as it can be, with a burial.

Vaughan Furniture Company is hoping its sales and distribution business will increase after signing a licensing agreement to market and manufacture furniture under the highly recognized name brand Kathy Ireland Worldwide, a $1 billion corporation.
This partnership covers imported bedroom, dining room, occasional and youth furniture to be marketed as Kathy Ireland Home from Vaughan Furniture.
The announcement comes a week after KIWW and case goods importer and manufacturer Standard Furniture announced they were ending an eight-year partnership.
FRIES — More than 30 people attended an exclusive preview Thursday of potential development plans for the old Washington Mills site in Fries. Unfortunately, most attendees were citizens rather than developers.
The presentation of a master plan for the 13.3-acre site was by Craig Wilson, vice president of K.W. Poore & Associates of Richmond.
HILLSVILLE — A sophisticated marijuana distribution effort with 313 pounds of marijuana packaged in mustard and coffee grounds and hidden in a 53-foot tractor-trailer still didn't fool Carroll authorities Tuesday.
HILLSVILLE — A former Hillsville woman found guilty in 2006 of second-degree murder will try a different tactic to get her convictions overturned.
No appeals remain open to Elva Rosemary Nixon, found guilty in the Jan. 5, 2004 ambush that led to the death 75-year-old Donald Brady from four gunshot wounds.
A jury sentenced Nixon to 33 years in prison as punishment for the Carroll County man's death.
HILLSVILLE — It became obvious at the Carroll School Board's Feb. 10 meeting that both citizens and educators feel anxious about what the Virginia budget shortfall means for the county.
The board held its first public hearing on the coming 2009-2010 fiscal year, and several people showed up to voice support for the teachers.
Citizen Nancy Rouse, has children at Hillsville Elementary and Carroll High. She said that, as the co-president of the PTSO at the elementary, she's talked to teachers about their concerns with the budget.
The New River Valley judgeship vacated at the end of last year by Michael Keith Blankenship is still up for grabs, and three from the Twin Counties — two attorneys and a former prosecutor — are among the six being considered for his replacement
The position for a juvenile and domestic relations court judge to sit in the 27th judicial circuit is scheduled to be filled next week in the General Assembly.
But that's not likely to happen because nearly every legislator and bar association that represents the district is backing a different candidate.
HILLSVILLE — State code does not seem to support the idea that Carroll County has to sign off on reactivating Hillsville Rescue Squad, at least the way town officials read the law.
Officials closed the Hillsville Rescue Squad four years ago after a former captain inappropriately used an ambulance to haul furniture from Marion, but last year Hillsville Town Council members started a push to revive the agency.
As the terms expire in June for Galax School Board vice chairwoman Theresa Lazo and chairman Ray Kohl, seven candidates — including one incumbent — are vying for the two seats.
Lazo has decided not to seek reappointment.
After interested citizens submitted letters of interest, a public hearing was held during Monday's Galax City Council meeting to hear a brief introduction from and conduct interviews with each of the candidates.
With seven people to interview, the council meeting lasted until 11:15 p.m.
ABINGDON — Two Blacksburg residents pleaded guilty last week in federal court to charges stemming from a home invasion robbery in Carroll County last year.
U.S. Attorney Julia C. Dudley said Donnell Edward Callaham, 26, and Korie Lee Hodges, 19, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia in Abingdon to charges of conspiracy, being in possession of stolen firearms and being in possession of stolen firearms with the serial number removed or obliterated.
HILLSVILLE — The 32-year-old Mount Airy, N.C., man who tried to rob three financial services businesses in Cana during the summer of 2007 pleaded guilty to all charges in Carroll Circuit Court last Thursday.
Carroll deputies had charged Carl Anthony Berrier with two counts of armed robbery for going into Speedy Cash and Cash to Go with a knife and demanding money in July 2007.
A locked door at the BB&T bank in Cana stymied a similar attempt there and led to Berrier's capture. Authorities charged him with attempted robbery for that incident.

investment fund,

Las Bambas,
Goldman Sachs
International Ferro Metals
LONDON Former Xstrata Plc chief executive officer Mick Davis has hired Goldman Sachs Group Inc. as part of a plan to raise a major mining fundpotentially worth billions of dollarsand could make a play for the Las Bambas copper project in Peru, AMM sister publication Metal Bulletin understands.
"First up is likely to be Las Bambas, being sold by Glencore as part of the Chinese (authorities) condition (for approving the merger between Glencore and Xstrata)," an analyst said.
Davis viewed the 400,000 tonne-per-year Las Bambas project, which was due to be commissioned at the end of 2014 after an estimated $5.2 billion investment, as a flagship project for his former company.
"Second choice (could be) International Ferro Metals (Ltd.) for its ferrochromethats where Xstrata started in the ferrochrome business," the analyst added.
"There is so much opportunity coming out of Rio Tinto (Plc), BHP (Billiton) and Anglo (American Plc)its like feeding chum to a school of starving sharks," the analyst said.
"I heard Daviss team had been offered an initial $200 million, but I suspect their broker will turn this into pledges of $1 billion in fairly short order and this will leverage, with revolving credit and a bond issue, into several billion on the back of a decent asset acquisition," he told Metal Bulletin.
The total fund is likely to be in the region of $3 billion to $5 billion once the structure is in place, the analyst said, but added that he is not sure whether Davis will use a "pure fund structure."
"Im not sure it is so flexible for managing mining assets," he said.
It has been thought likely since last year that Davis would raise funds to invest in mines and mining projects.
Davis fuelled such speculation when he told Metal Bulletin in an interview earlier this year that there is still great scope for creating value in the resource sector.
"I think there are a number of companies out there that are starved of capital and maybe dont have sufficient management expertise and experience, that a combination of the right amount of capital, the right amount of management, would help them actually move up the value curve significantly. So I think there are great opportunities there, and I think theres a space to play," he said shortly before the deal with Glencore was complete.
Daviss experience and backing could help make him a "true master" in the industry, according to the analyst, with the potential to bring about major performance improvements for mining assetsas he did at Xstrata.
Brian Gilbertsonlike Davis, one of the executives instrumental in creating London-based BHP Billitonset up St. Peter Port, Guernsey-based Pallinghurst Resources Ltd. to invest in natural resources in 2007. It had assets of around $400 million at the end of 2012.
But other analysts have been quiet on the subject so far, as further concrete information on Daviss plans has yet to emerge.
New York-based Goldman Sachs declined to comment on the reports.
"I know the common speculationa fund, with Goldman Sachs onboard to help, maybe some Middle Eastern money, but in any case, not publicly listed, to buy mining assetsI dont have any other insight than these public rumors," another analyst said.
A number of others declined to venture even this far.
"His new company is called X2 Resources, I believethere must be a clue in that," a third analyst said.
Aside from Las Bambas, there are numerous possibilities for Daviss as-yet-hypothetical fund, especially as mining companies look to trim their portfolios by divesting non-core assets.
The majors, such as London-based Rio Tinto and Anglo American, are already in the process of selling off certain assets. Indeed, Ivan Glasenberg, now the chief executive officer of Baar, Switzerland-based Glencore Xstrata Plc, has said the companys greenfield assets will be the first to go.
This means Davis will be presented with a vast array of potential acquisitions.
However, the state of the sectorwhich has been blighted by falling grades, diminishing returns, declining prices, weak demand and even weaker investor interestmeans that such a venture is not without risk, industry observers pointed out.
In his exit interview, Davis highlighted the way in which he had tackled a comparable challenge through the development of Xstrata.
All comments are subject to editorial review.
All fields are compulsory.
Every month American Metal Market takes a statistical look inside the marketplace.
We actually don't know who his investors are. At the point when we are ready, we will investigate further. There are just so many things to handle and there are a lot of items to be considered with the project."

I'm going to miss Phyllis Pond. She and I shared a condo in Indianapolis my first three years in the state legislature, and I could not have asked for a better mentor.
I loved coming home after a long day in the General Assembly and talking about the bills we either heard about or were working on.
I would sometimes ask if she could tell me a little about the history of an issue. She would sit in her favorite chair, tuck her legs up under her like a teenager and begin with: Let me tell you how this all started, and who was involved.
Phyllis was first elected in a time when it was not cool for women to run for office. She was a warrior for her constituents, a warrior for education and a warrior of the times. She figured out how to make alliances and get bills passed on her own. Allen County was always at the forefront of her mind, and she always asked herself how any proposed bill would affect her constituents back home.
Phyllis was also a warrior when it came to pain. She had to have back surgery before one of our sessions began and was still recovering when the session started. She would sometimes take breaks to lie down during that time of healing, but when an important bill came up for final vote, she never missed it. In pain or not, Phyllis was going to be sure her constituents were well represented. She was their warrior.
Of all the things she taught me, three rise to the top of the list. Kathy, she would say, never think you have all the answers, always listen more than you talk and always be sure you understand both sides of any issue. She always wanted to be sure she understood why people were either for or against any bill on the floor of the General Assembly before she would cast her vote. She was fair, honest and ahead of her time. She was her constituents' lady warrior.
I will miss that lady warrior.

U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan, under fire from Republicans for her support of the new health care law, said Tuesday shes asking for an investigation of the Obama administrations botched roll-out.
We need to figure out why this happened and make sure it never happens again, Hagan said in a morning conference call with reporters.
The Democratic senator, who faces re-election next year, said she plans to formally request an investigation by the Government Accountability Office and the Department of Health and Human Services Inspector General.
Hagan criticized the contractors who deployed the Healthcare.gov system as well as the bureaucrats who hired them. The website that is essential to determining coverage options and costs has been largely unusable since it launched.
Hagan declined to say whether heads should roll at DHHS.
Once Im able to look at this accountability, then Ill be able to make better determination about what took place, she said. Transparency and accountability from the administration is what were looking for The administration needs to show what the punch list is.
Hagan said she also signed onto a bill introduced by Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu of Louisiana that would ensure people can keep their current coverage. In some cases, people have had existing health insurance plans discontinued and replaced with more expensive ones.
Hagan is one of three Democrats to sign on as co-sponsors. Two, like Landrieu, face tough re-election races next year.
Republicans called her efforts an act of pure political desperation.
Kay Hagan wasn't being honest when she promised that everyone could keep their health plans if they liked them, and as a result many North Carolinians are losing their health care plans and face skyrocketing costs, said Brook Hougesen, a spokesman for the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
Hagan defended aspects of the Affordable Care Act, such as guaranteed coverage for people with pre-existing conditions.
The positive impacts of this law do not excuse its unacceptable roll-out problems, she said, and I will continue working to get answers for North Carolinians who deserve transparency and accountability.

Catherine Zeta-Jones took the stand July 28 in Los Angeles against Dawnette Knight, who is accused of stalking her with phone calls and letters from January 2003 to May 2004. "It's so satanic," the actress said of threats to blow her up "so pieces of her head look like President Kennedy's." Knight, 32, who has pleaded not guilty, was later found slumped in her jail cell after taking sleeping pills.

- Great dinner; looking forward to next visitOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/22/2014What a gem. The chef comes out to ask if you enjoy the food, his wife makes great recommendations and the entire staff make you feel welcome and right at home. The fish special was amazing and definitely one of the best dishes I have ever had. The butternut squash ravioli ascended from typical autumn fare with such attention to flavors and the addition of fresh truffles. Even the apple tart impressed with just the right mix of flavors and textures. Just go and experienow this place for yourself. Felt like we were dining in Europe. Can't wait to go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- One of the best restaurants in HoustonHouTexMarcDined on 11/22/2014I've lived and travelled all over the world and Charivari is one of my favorite restaurants of any kind anywhere. Chef Johann is a master at creating unique dishes with simple yet elegant presentations. The decor is also simple yet elegant; perfect for a quiet dinner for two as well as a larger group. The service is impeccable and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food. There are just too many positives to list them all here. Treat yourself to a wonderful dining experience. I can't recommend Charivari highly enough.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- VG food, needed advanced warning of winetastingellenVIPDined on 11/18/2014The restaurant was very good, but we were there on a night they were having a wine tasting. We were the only table not participating, but were not separated from the others. So, we had to listen to a rather long "talk" by the wine guy. Was a little awkward. It would be better if there was room between us. I felt as if I was intruding.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- tasteful service, special foodPandaDined on 10/31/2014They keep European tradition alive in a good way here, with the complimentary amuse-bouche to tease thr palate and sorbet to cleanse the palate before the main course. They try to make each dish just a little unique and special, but not in a weird or overly experimental way. For instance, we had beet root sorbet with mint. That was a nice, earthy way to refresh our mouths after the appetizer. They also included a generous shaving of white truffles over my risotto, which added dimension. Excellent!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Quiet and SophisticatedJOakDined on 10/18/2014I visited Charivari with a group of 7 of my friends as a "girls night out" and while we all appreciate good food, this restaurant was not the best place for a large group of friends wanting to catch up. We felt uncomfortable and unable to "let loose" because of the quite atmosphere and very intimate setting. There was definitly an older croud, and while we didn't fit in we were dead set on enjoying our night out without husbands and kids! The food was good, slightly overpriced, but we really enjoyed the little tastes of things we didn't order from the chef in the kitchen. Overall i rate this restaurant 4 out of 5 stars, and i didn't fault it for not being the right setting for our group.Special Features:
- DonnaDined on 10/16/2014They were having a wine tasting the night we were here and half the restaurant was blocked off by a screen. It got pretty loud too. I think I should have been notified of this. Service was terrible....we waited and waited. We have been going to Charivari for years but no more. It was my husbands birthday dinner and it was ruined.Special Features:
- midtown baby boomersMidtownBabyBoomers25Dined on 10/15/201410 years ago we lived in the Midtown area and often ate at Charivari, and have just recently returned from an out-of-country assignment. We visited Charivari last week and anticipated our dining experience after all these years. As for then and for NOW, what an EXCELLENT restaurant -food, service and ambiance. Not the usual dining experience, not the usual menu - ALL UNIQUE. Can't wait until my next celebration for another extraordinary dining experience.Special Features:
- Amazing food!ModernmarvelsDined on 10/10/2014Amazing food! Service is terrific. It is a must for anyone who is from/traveled to/or longing to go to Europe. The food is amazing! I will be going back to check out brunch and lunch.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Relaxing eveningJimGDined on 10/4/2014Enjoyed the evening, the food and the service. Look forward to going back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious food, great service!TIBEDined on 9/27/2014Went here to dine with nine other ladies and with the majority originating from Europe, means we know European cuisine. The food was just delicious; fresh, flavorful and original. Maria, who took care of us was tremendously service minded and kind, and made the dining experience very pleasant. Tip: The chocolate mousse for dessert is highly recommended!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Once is never enoughHoustonfoodieVIPDined on 9/27/2014Charivari never ceases to please! I've been coming here for the past 5 years, and they continue to make you feel relaxed and welcome, and the food continues to be consistently well done. This is one of the few places left where they treat you special and let you stay and relax, while they take time to ensure the food comes out perfect. We just went for the Oktoberfest menu, and the pretzel was fresh and left you wanting more, the potato soup was silky and rich, and the pork shank was heavenly. It's hard to find shank where they cook it all day so that the skin is crispy and the meat fork tender. Oddly enough, though, the food is all very clean and non-greasy, yet rich and full of flavor. This is by far my favorite place.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- martyVIPDined on 9/26/2014superior seafood and beef carpaccio; very high culinary standards. Chef frequently visits table, making suggestions and making you feel at home.Special Features:
- Excellent cuisine in midtownTXBBCVIPDined on 9/24/2014This was a Wednesday evening and our first visit to the restaurant, an unimposing strip center with a small sidewalk table option out front. We were seated promptly, ordered a split of Piper-Heidsieck and began with Foie Gras and Caviar Blinis for our appetizers. Both were excellent and were presented in an original fashion. Our two entrees of Berkshire Pork Strips & Shrimp Scampi with sides of homemade spaetzle and potato pancakes were among the best I've ever tasted. We ended with a shared fig torte accompanied by their special Viennese Coffees for dessert. The waitstaff was professional and friendly and the chef stopped by our table for a brief visit before desert was served. We'll be back again soon.Special Features:
- Great food and servicekevinhoustontxVIPDined on 9/20/2014This appears to be a family owned and operated restaurant so it has that personal touch. We really enjoyed the food and service. It has a very unique menu which was a great change of pace from the usual steak and seafood options at typical restaurants.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- classic, refined at a great priceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/19/2014Classic and perfectly executed continental European with an emphasis on German and French. Outstanding value for money. On both visits I had seafood and partner had traditional German. Portions reasonable but filling, mains served hot, well seasoned, prepared perfectly with sauces well balanced and unbroken. Amazing how many very $$$ places where basic sauces come out oily and separated, not the case here. One complaint was the saltiness of the escargot starter. On first visit the stuffed mushroom app was also quite salty. If you are new to this type of service, you may be frustrated with the pacing. Not trendy, but a leisurely, delicious meal with superb service. Looking forward to coming back next month for wild game specials.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DissapointingeatsoutalotDined on 9/19/2014When I want to go out for a special dinner, Charivari, is one of my top choices. Friday night the restaurant did not live up to my expectations. We were the only people in the room when we arrived It took quiet a while for the waiter to come over to the table. I know that service at Charivari is paced, but every time we needed a waiter I would have to raise my arm and signal for one to come over. At one point, I got up from the table and asked the hostess to find a waiter. I had ordered lamb chops served on a slice of green bell pepper. Weird combination! No mint jelly. I ordered roasted potatoes which never came. The soup was delicious, enjoyed the little extras. A 91st birthday. Usually cake is compt but not here.
- The following 294 reviews are from the Charivari reviews archive.
- Charivari excels both timesAUDCVIPDined on 7/11/2014This is our second time at Charivari and we loved the food/ambiance/service. It always surprises us as to why this place is not sought after by many on friday nights/saturday nights (which is when we have been there). Nevertheless, the food was great, service impeccable and ambiance just perfect for any occasion where people are looking to have a relaxing, quiet, intimate dinner.Special Features:
- Awesomely deliciousOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 6/16/2014Every thing was great! Great service & food! Can't wait to come back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- This is how it should be done!TCA5VIPDined on 6/14/2014Dining at Charivari is a wonderful reminder of what eating at a restaurant can, and ideally should be. The pleasant, attentive, and helpful service; the creative, diverse, well-explained menu; the beautifully presented and absolutely delicious food. This is one of those places that does everything so very well that one feels comfortable ordering dishes that might normally be a bit outside his prior knowledge or comfort zone, trusting that they will be very tasty and enjoyable. It all combines so that we never fail to smile during our meal and inevitably find ourselves smiling as we leave the restaurant, reminding ourselves how much we enjoyed it and how much we look forward to our next visit.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bubblets71Dined on 6/12/2014Great place, nice ambiance with live piano music. Staff were very friendly even the chef went around to make sure all was great! Would definitely recommend this place.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- experiencelovediningDined on 6/12/2014All though waiters were nice. The food wasn't that great for the original price and what you would expect. Definitely would make sure you tell them how you want your meat cooked because per chef's recommendation it is medium rare. However it really seemed rare which was very unappetizing to us and my spouse didn't eat any of it. That is something very simple that can be changed by request. The steak just didn't seem to be very favorful. I think they rely on the sauce for all the flavor. The lobster bisque was too salty maybe cause of the butter not sure. So would I go again unfortunately not but wish them the best. And as far as the taxes and gratuity that everyone has spoke about.
- Great food not so great servicefoodisgreatDined on 6/10/2014Our reservation was for 715 and we were seated by 710. Mostly empty with the exception of a private party of 20-30 people. I believe this is the reason for the poor service. We had a 4 course meal and it was 30-45 minutes between each course and no one let us know they were running behind.The food was really good but the lack of communication and extremely long wait made this a bad experience. The waiters were very nice, but I do think they were understaffed that night. I would eat here again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Groupon DinnerGVLNDined on 6/9/2014Dinner was great. It was my wife and I's anniversary, and everything was exquisite. Good timeSpecial Features:
- ClassicOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/7/2014Old world/old school dinning experience. Great place to relax and enjoy a multi-course meal. Too many "foodie" restaurants today run algorithms on how many customers they need to run through each table to make a profit. Just one reason they don't last, they treat customers like a commodity. Charivari's staff are quiet and unpretentious and make you feel you have all the time in the world. Food was creative and remarkable. Truly a unique experience in today's fast-paced, scheduled world.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Our view of CharivaripseudofoodieVIPDined on 6/2/2014Charivari has been one of our very most favorite restaurants for many years! It is quiet; the food and drink are delicious with a European flair (and sometimes Peruvian) that you do not get elsewhere; the service is attentive and friendly; and the price is right. What else do you want?Special Features:
- okayChrissyDined on 5/31/2014Went for dinner with my husband, it was not bad but overpriced (like most restaurants in Houston). The service was not impressive, waiters a bit on the grumpy side... I'd go back if someone invites me.Special Features:
- Excellent evening at CharivariBillDined on 5/31/2014I have been dining at Charivari for years and without fail, they serve interesting, delicious food, and provide exceptional service. Charivari is perfect for lunch, a perfect place to dine with friends or bring business clients. Dinners are wonderful, in a classy, and romantic setting. Once you step inside, you forget that it is located in a small shopping center. Thank you Johann and Maria, for providing this wonderful dining experience! I had a special request and the excellent staff was quick to help too.Special Features:
- HughesDined on 5/24/2014Great for a quiet dinner with soft music. Conversing is easy. Menu is superb. Service is attentive but not intruive.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great...OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/20/2014Great place to go. It has a variety of food types and is relatively quiet. You can talk to a friend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- FabulouseatsoutalotDined on 5/8/2014If you are looking for a really special restaurant that has it all, this is it! You can carry on a conversation which is almost as important as the food! And the food is wonderful. I love that all the entrees are brought to the table under covered silver domes and they are put in front of the dinner at the exact same time. The drinks are reasonable. Can't wait to go back.Special Features:
- Positive experience overallOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/3/2014Overall, the experience at Charivari was a good one. The food was good.. unfortunately, it was not great which is what I was expecting given the prices. Portions are on the smaller side, which was fine with me but my friend was dissatisfied (and still hungry when we left lol). Regardless, the food came out hot and fresh from the kitchen. Our drinks were great! I ordered the rhubarb martini and it was spot on.. very well poured! The wait staff was great! Very friendly and helpful :) In conclusion, I was not necessarily disappointed with my dining experience but I just wasn't impressed either... with so many great restaurants in the area, I do not feel that the food stood out at all.Special Features:
- Great Experience!scarymaryDined on 4/26/2014Service was exceptional, food was great. We went on a Group for the 4-course prix fixe dinner. It was very good. Loved the pace of the meal, time in between. Didn't feel rushed. It was a great date-night for my husband and me.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Excellent European style restaurantWhitVIPDined on 4/12/2014Excellent European style restaurant. The food is always excellently prepared and the presentation is perfect. Piano music adds to the ambience on Saturday evenings, without it being so loud as to impede quiet dinner conversations. We have gone here many times and will definitely return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Tasty food with live piano musicRichelleDined on 4/5/2014Enjoyed the pork steak and charivari salad a great deal. The service was great with the exception of taking over 30 minutes to bring the check. Live piano music was nice.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding serviceAnnyDined on 3/29/2014The service was great; very friendly personnel and I enjoyed also talking to the chef. The ceviche is awesome. I also liked the fact that I was able to get a reservation for a party of 10.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Dinner for twoConsulDined on 3/12/2014I have eaten at Charivari many times, so when I saw the offer for dinner for two we jumped on it. The menu selection for is for steak only. I think that should be changed and other selections offered. Chicken or fish. Elegantly prepared and served. Beautiful european style restaurant makes for an enjoyable evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

WORCESTER Warriors have snapped up former London Wasps wing David Lemi.
The 30-year-old Samoan, who has scored an impressive 36 tries in 95 games in the top-flight, will arrive at Sixways from Glasgow Warriors for the start of next season.
Lemi played under Warriors head coach Richard Hill at Bristol in 2005 where he became a firm favourite for his try scoring exploits at the Memorial Stadium.
Hill believes Lemi, who has featured in two Rugby World Cups for his country, has what it takes to hit the ground running next season.
"David is a try scorer and in today's game, when defences are tight and it can be hard to manufacture tries, many come down to individual brilliance," Hill said.
"He is the kind of player that makes things happen, a match winner and can do things others do not expect.
"David also has an excellent work ethic and will fit into the culture at the club and be determined to make a big impression at Warriors."
Lemi admitted the chance to work with former charge Hill was a big incentive for his move to Sixways.
"I'm really looking forward to the move to Worcester - it is a fantastic and big challenge for me to move to a club with such ambition as the Warriors," Lemi said.
"I always enjoyed the style of rugby and what I achieved at Bristol under the leadership of Richard Hill and the chance to work with him again is a huge incentive for me.
"Worcester have some very talented young and up-and-coming players at the club and the challenge for me will be to show that I am worthy of a place in the team and also use my experience to be successful at Sixways."
