Review this game
After a four year hiatus from the Smackdown series, curiosity took the best of me, and I decided to give Smackdown vs Raw 2011 the benefit of the doubt with a weekendâ
Feb 27, 2011Amazing, easily the best wrestling game ever. Tons of customisation, loads of DLC, good online, road to wrestlemania mode is entertaining, create-a-storyline is much better, and WWE Universe mode is compelling. I am very much enjoying this game and would recommend it to any WWE fan.
Dec 27, 2010This game is fun, but flawed. The new suped up weapon controls provide hours of crazy stunts, but the moveset control and stiffness really slows down the game. The WWE Universe mode is fantastic and provides endless fun and storylines which you can sink hours in to. The RTWM mode has some good storylines, but gets VERY boring and frustrating having to trump around backstage for ages, to the point where you just want to turn it off. The game features some glitches and is so unpolished, it's either crazy fun or very annoying, nowhere near as polished as it's predecessor. Not bad, overall.… Expand
Nov 20, 2010It is a decent game, however i have a few problems: You can only defend the main championships at WWE pay-per-views, Ezekiel's Jackson's finisher is the basically the Book-End or King End and there is only one set of commentators in the game (jerry lawler and michael cole). Create a titantron has been taken out and it wasn't that good in svr 2010. Apart from them flaws, i think you should not hesitate in buying it. There is better online, lots of dlc and unlockables and awesome wrestling which is why we are buying it.
graphics 9/10
gameplay 8/10
sound 8/10

Nov 8, 2010I like this game alot. It runs pretty smoothly and it's the best wrestling game I've seen in a long time. It's not perfct, but it's a very good game. My only peeve is the fact that you can't climb on the announce table and put your opponent through it, and that you can only go in certain areas on the ramp and stage in a falls count anywhere match..technically you can't go "anywhere." One of these days, THQ will make the perfect wrestling game..maybe by 2020. :)… Expand
Oct 29, 2010Awesome game, better than last year. An improvement on everything especially the fighting styles, the grounbreaking as ever with the series and a superb sountrack tops it off.
Oct 28, 2010Words can not describe how this game feels! its amazing!! masked kane is back this year to!:) soooo amazing!!! the game-play is so simulation like and the graphics are amazing to!
Oct 27, 2010THQ's lastes WWE venture hits the spot with the addition of WWE Universe, updated roster, great physics and updated online play. This is a must purchase for any wrestling fan.
Oct 26, 2010Best smackdown vs raw yet... i love universe mode and this is a must have that i dont think will be very successful because fable 3 and sims 3 are out too, but this is a must have
After a four year hiatus from the Smackdown series, curiosity took the best of me, and I decided to give Smackdown vs Raw 2011 the benefit of the doubt with a weekendâ
Jan 6, 2011With WWE Smackdown Vs. Raw 2011, the series is starting to show its age. Despite being a recent release, the graphics and the sound start to feel old, and major gaffes have remained in those areas despite being singled out in several reviews.
Dec 28, 2010A very decent update of a game that's sadly years - no, generations - past its prime. [Jan 2011, p.81]
Dec 16, 2010Overall SDvR11 is an excellent game with fabulous offline features. If the online wasn't broken I'd most definitely be scoring this game higher, nevertheless if you're a wrestling fan or even a closet wrestling fan, WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 is the game you should be purchasing or requesting at Christmas.

One can only expect that many among those who care for the Pope in his Petrine ministry have expressed their concerns for his safety given the escalation of violence in the region. However, this danger will not deter his determination to visit the region. He is a man of great courage and profound living faith. We ask our readers around the world to pray for him during this historic visit.

Keywords: Lebanon, Egypt, Yemen, Iraq, Iran, Jihadist, Islamist, Pope benedict XVI, Peace, Pope, Deacon Keith Fournier
BEIRUT, Lebanon (Catholic Online) - On Sunday, September 9, 2012, before the horrific attacks on the US Embassy in Egypt, the US Consulate in Libya, the US Embassy compound in Yemen and now the growing protests throughout the Nations of Iraq and Iran, Pope Benedict XVI spoke these words to the faithful during his Sunday Angelus Prayer:
"Dear pilgrims, those of you here, or who are taking part in the Angelus through radio or television; in the coming days, I will make an apostolic visit to Lebanon to sign the Post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation, fruit of the Special Assembly for the Middle East of the Synod of Bishops, held in October 2010. I will have the happy opportunity to meet with the Lebanese people and authorities, and the Christians of that beloved country and those from neighboring countries."
"I am aware of the often dramatic situation experienced by the people of this region, too long torn apart by incessant conflicts. I understand the anguish of many Middle Eastern people immersed in daily sufferings of all kinds, which sadly, and at times mortally, plague their personal and family life. My concerned thoughts go out to those who, in search of a place of peace, leave their family and professional life, and experience the precariousness of being exiles."
"Even though the search for solutions to the various problems affecting the region seems difficult, we cannot resign ourselves to the violence and exasperation of tensions. A commitment to dialogue and reconciliation must be a priority for all parties involved, and must be supported by the international community, increasingly aware of the importance of a stable and lasting peace in the region for the whole world. My apostolic visit to Lebanon, and by extension in the Middle East as a whole, is placed under the sign of peace, referring to the words of Christ: "My peace I give to you" (John 14:27). May God bless Lebanon and the Middle East! May God bless you all!"
Lebanese Maronite Patriarch Beshara Boutros al-Rai told Vatican Radio's Tracey McClure that the focus of this papal visit was the role of the Churches of the Middle East and how they can and must contribute to a future of peace in the region. "I think the Apostolic Exhortation is a gift of Divine providence in this difficult moment. It will present a series of challenges confronting the Christians of the region and propose some solutions and a way to proceed".
The Patriarch claimed that the Muslim community was "very enthusiastic about the Pope's visit" and expressed his belief that "the Pope will help bring the dawn of peace to the region." And that the "real Arab Spring will arrive as the fruit of a Christian Spring and we can help to achieve this through communion and witness to love".
He added, "This is a region torn by conflict and war and this exhortation will present a new way of presenting positive solutions to the conflict and political tensions. It is important that the Church speaks a language of peace, dialogue and understanding, because the Arab world only hears the language of hatred and violence both regionally and internationally, unfortunately. Violence and war will never bring about a new Spring - Only the opposite".
The Holy Father's plans to travel to Lebanon have been underway for some time. He has often expressed his profound concern for the Christians of the middle East and conviction of the necessity of their continued presence there. He is traveling there to encourage them in their faith and reaffirm their vital role.
One can only expect that many among those who care for the Pope in his Petrine ministry have expressed their concerns for his safety given the escalation of violence in the region. However, this danger will not deter his determination to visit the region. He is a man of great courage and profound living faith. We ask our readers around the world to pray for him during this historic visit.
Shortly after his arrival on Friday, September 14, 2012, he will travel to the Melkite Greek Catholic basilica of St. Paul in Harissa where he will sign the Post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation on the vital Role of the Church in the Middle East. This highly anticipated Apostolic Exhortation follows the Synod of Bishops of the Middle East which was held in October of 2010 in Rome. That gathering was dedicated to the theme "The Catholic Church in the Middle East: Communion and Witness."
On Saturday morning he will meet with government leaders. Prime Minister Najib Mikati praised the papal visit in the National press, calling it historic and expressing hope that it will lead to a partnership for peace. He called a Cabinet session on Wednesday, September 12, 2012 where he noted that the session was:
"being held two days before the historic event which we will witness for Pope Benedict XVI's three-day visit to announce the apostolic exhortation for the Christians of the Middle East." He expressed his hope that "all Lebanese, Christians and Muslims are awaiting his holiness's arrival on Friday and all trust that his visit will bring good and peace as well as a return to true partnership between the peoples of the East."
That session with government leaders will be followed by a meeting between the pope and Muslim Leaders. The Shiite cleric Sayyed Mohammad Hasan al-Amin, spoke to the Lebanese Daily Star and referred to the "blessed visit". He drew parallels with the visit of Blessed john Paul II in 1997. He said the visit was "a sign that Lebanon has a great place in the Vatican" and expressed hope that its impact would be felt not only by Christians but by all the Lebanese.
The Holy Father will then lunch with the Patriarchs and Bishops of Lebanon, members of the Special Council for the Middle East of the Synod of Bishops and the papal entourage in the refectory of the Armenian Catholic Patriachate of Bzommar. Finally, in the evening, as is his custom, he will meet with the youth in an open air session on the square across from the Maronite Patriarchate of Bkerk�.
On Sunday morning he will conclude the visit by offering an open air Mass at Beiruts waterfront where he will preach the homily and then make the formal presentation of the Post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation for the Middle East in the Beirut City Center Waterfront. Then, he will lead the Angelus and give an address. That will be followed by an ecumenical meeting in the Hall of Honor of the Syro-Catholic Patriarchate of Charfet and his departure for Rome.
The significance of this apostolic visit to Lebanon by the Vicar of Christ cannot be overstated. Its timing is prophetic and its message is urgent. The Christian faithful throughout the world need to pray for the Successor of Peter as he travels on this mission of peace. We also need to pray for the success of his efforts. Finally, we need to pray in solidarity with our Christian brethren in the Middle East in their time of travail.
At his Wednesday General audience, Pope Benedict XVI spoke these words to the faithful: "I exhort all Christians of the Middle East, both those born there and the newly arrived, to be builders of peace and architects of reconciliation. Let us pray to God that he may fortify the faith of Christians in Lebanon and the Middle East, and fill them with hope.
"The history of the Middle East teaches us the important and sometimes primordial role played by the various Christian communities in inter-religious and inter-cultural dialogue. Let us ask God to give that region of the world its longed-for peace, and respect for legitimate differences."
The Vatican news Agency issued the following report on the visit.
"The Pope is going to Lebanon as a "messenger of peace" and the dramatically mounting tension that still today affects the entire region of the Middle East, "far from discouraging him have made his desire" to undertake this journey "even more pressing". On the eve of Benedict XVI's departure, offers a key to interpreting the papal visit, describing it as "an invitation to leaders in the Middle East and to the international community to work with determination to find fair and lasting solutions for the region".
In a September 13 interview with Le Figaro, a French daily, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the Vaticans Secretary of State, noted that "for the Pope the advancement of human rights - and first among them the right of religious freedom - is the most effective strategy for building the common good. " He also said that the Pope "intends to be a prophetic and a moral voice", asking "all men and women of good will to ensure that religion is never an incentive for war and division".

Comedian Jeff Capri has standup comedy in his blood. "Basically, I am a second-generation comic," he explains. "My father is comedian Dick Capri, who is a Borscht Belt, East Coast, Catskills guy." Jeff's parents split-up when he was young; he grew up in southern California. However, he'd visit his dad back east. Between watching his old man perform and listening to the younger comics on cable, the younger Capri developed a hybrid style of comedy. "I talk about myself because that's the only thing I know about," he confesses. "Some of the Borscht Belt DNA has stuck with me, though. Henny Youngman does make an appearance every once in a while." Capri has performed in a variety of places, from comedy clubs to cruise ships—even a nudist colony. He remained clothed. "It was a person that had booked a lot of country club-type jobs for me," he recalls. "They approached her, and she thought it was another gated community, which technically it was." Though he had a good set, the whole experience wasn't as exotic as it sounds. "It was a lot of nudity that you didn't want to see." Of course they say if you're nervous in front of an audience, picture them in their underwear. "Picturing the audience naked wasn't too difficult, but it was the kind of situation where I was picturing them with their clothes on." 18+; 21+ later shows.

Drogba seals Shanghai move
Former Chelsea striker Didier Drogba has confirmed his long-expected move to Chinese club Shanghai Shenhua.
The 34-year-old, who confirmed his intention to leave Stamford Bridge following Chelsea's Champions League final victory over Bayern Munich, has signed a two-and-a-half year deal reportedly worth £200,000 a week with the Chinese Super League side.
He will join up with former Chelsea colleague Nicolas Anelka, who joined the club in January. Drogba has been linked with Shanghai for several months after contract talks with Chelsea stalled over the length of a new deal.

2 days in Manhattan, decisions decisions
- OC Mutt Jul 14, 2009 07:38 PM
Here is my meal itinerary for two days staying in Grammercy area:
Thursday, Day 1 late August:
Breakfast: Ess-a-Bagel, everything bagel w/nova
Lunch: Balthazar, must try the french fries (is it worth it?)
Dinner: Might go to Mets game, so dinner is questionable. Suggestions? Perhaps Totonos pizza early?
Friday day 2:
Ess-a-Bagel repeat
Lunch (prix fixe specials): 11 Madison Park, Gotham Bar and Grille, Grammercy Tavern, or is it worth shlepping up to Jean-George Nougatine in the August heat (your votes please)
Dinner: Carnegie Deli (you cannot talk me out of this one)
If you are thinking of Gramercy Tavern's formal dining room, for a prix-fixe lunch deal, you can remove it from consideration because they don't offer one. Eleven Madison Park is our favorite NYC restaurant, and the 2 for $28 lunch menu is excellent!
The one time we tried Totonno's on 2nd & 26th, the pizza was very disappointing. We prefer the excellent thin crust pizza at Posto, on the corner of 2nd & 18th.
Re: dinner at/before Mets game. There are plenty of posts on the Outerboroughs Board about the eats at the new Citi Field. In short, they are greatly improved and really quite good. Shake Shack, Blue Smoke, a taqueria, box frites, Mama's of Corona, and a bunch of other places. I'd recommend checking out those posts before deciding whether to skip food at the stadium.
re: LNG212
Agree with LNG212 -- I'd eat AT the Mets game, it's one of the few stadiums where there is a lot of thought put into the food. And there's a branch of the Shake Shack!
Or go to somewhere on the 7 train -- so much great food in Queens on the 7 line, especially one stop away in Flushing!
re: kathryn
I agree with LNG and Kathryn about eating at the Mets game. I was unwilling to brave the Shake Shack line, but the food at the Taqueria was really good both times I tried it.
Also, I had the two course lunch at EMP in May, and really enjoyed it. I think it would be a good place to check out.
"Balthazar, must try the french fries (is it worth it?)"
IMO - No - . I was underwhelmed by Balthazar.
It was good...nothing awful (except that our red wine was served ICE cold -bleh!)..frites were ok - good but certainly not great.
But I think you could do much better elsewhere!
If I were you I would seek out more "New York"ish food for lunch that day
If you go to Jean Georges for a prix fixe lunch, I'd go for the formal dining room, not the Nougatine Room. Otherwise, EMP is your best bet.
re: kathryn
Agreed--I think it is worth the schlep up to Jean George for your prix fixe lunch, but not to Nougatine. The lunch in the formal dining room is the an amazing deal.
re: OC Mutt
This question actually comes up a lot! For the JG lunch deal, it is offered Monday through Saturday. You get 2 courses for $28 + $14 for each additional course. Dessert is not included but can be added on for $8. There is a long list of options to choose from and the list includes many of the signature dishes (some for a small supplement).
As a bonus, they offer you a trio of amuse to begin as well as complimentary marshmallows, petit fours, and bon bons to finish. And these are the very same amuses-bouches and petits-fours served at dinner!
As for dress code: in the main dining room, jackets are required for dinner only. For lunch, they simply ask no jeans and no tennis shoes. (I've called and confirmed this!)
re: kathryn
I'm assuming no shorts either, which of course brings the brutal August heat into the equation. Would reservations be required? I can't believe that they offer it on Saturday AND at JG (not Nougatine)! This is wonderful news, thank you so much!
re: OC Mutt
Definitely make reservations. Jean Georges recently joined OpenTable.com which makes it even easier to book! And the Saturday lunch offering in the formal dining room is fairly new.
Not really sure about the shorts question -- I would call and ask?
re: kathryn
Ok, one more question. JG or EMP - which is more comfortable dining alone?
re: OC Mutt
On their website, EMP states specfically "No shorts." And my guess is that J.G. would not find them acceptable either.
Presuming you mean to be seated at a table at EMP (there is bar dining), we've been there countless times -- lunch and dinner -- and I've often seen solo patrons at a table. They are always treated very graciously. I've only had lunch once at J.G. and didn't notice any solo diners, but I'm sure they are treated with the utmost courtesy.
P.S. Considering that the weather in these parts has been like early April in June and May in July, who knows if there will be a steamy August?
re: OC Mutt
Just FYI EMP has a separate bar menu. However, you should be OK since you can order from the regular lunch menu at the bar during lunch hours. At some point in the late afternoon/evening, they switch over to the bar menu. For dinner, you can't order from the regular dining room's menu at the bar. At least that is what they told me when I called a month or so ago.
re: kathryn
Thanks Kathryn, you are amazing! I really appreciate your advice!
re: OC Mutt
I've seen people dining solo for lunch at JG, and the staff didn't seem to mind.
If it's a matter of reservation, I for one think Nougatine is perfectly fine, very much worth going for, and every bit as enjoyable. I can't compare it to EMP however.
l love the breadbasket and coffee at Balthazar's
Barney Greengrass for the other breakfast
Pizza l like Co, on 9th Ave.
Ate at Gramercy for dinner @ a month ago, and while place ,wine, and service was very nice, food was way below acceptable. Ate with two chefs and we all agreed, very low level, boring, and rarely served at correct temp.
Will not talk you out of Carnegie, but there are better, much better. While at B Greengrass, try their pastrami.
re: Delucacheesemonger
I agree with you about Gramercy Tavern's dining room. When we had dinner there several months ago, the dishes I ordered were ill-conceived and had little or poor flavor. My husband's were better conceptually but very unexciting. Desserts were above average though certainly not extraordinary. The only outstanding item was the pre-dessert. Overall, a real disappointment.
re: Delucacheesemonger
That was Claudia *Flemming*, and right after she left G.T., she actually hooked up with the Prêt à Manger chain for some time. Then she worked with her chef husband, Gary Hayden, at a restaurant in Chelsea that didn't last too long. The North Fork venture, also with Hayden, is her most recent. I agree that Nancy Olson, G.T.'s current pastry chef, is doing a very good job.
while i don't think so much of the cooked food at Balthazar, the raw oysters and the salads (particularly the Balthazar salad) are great, as is the wine selection...i'm no fry expert, but people seem to love those too...
re: steve h.
I was thinking about a lunch of fries and Onion Soup, or Moules Frites.
re: OC Mutt
that makes a ton of sense to me.
re: OC Mutt
Okay OC if you insist - but don't say I didn't warn you!
Balthazar is average! I have been twice - and didn't have anything there that wowed me.
With so much incredible food to be had in NYC - I simply don't understand why you would go for French food....Don't you have good fries and mussels in LA??
re: NellyNel
OK, so then how about another suggestion for that side of town? I have no particular preference for French food, unless you count french fries ;-).
re: OC Mutt
Hmmmm......let me think - I'll get bac to ya on that one!!
re: OC Mutt
l have been to Balthazar over 100 times over the years, even benefitting from the special phone number, and for what l get, the way l am treated, and the environment of the place will hopefully go 100 more times. You might want to try to get into another McNally restaurant, newer and a much tougher ticket, being Minetta Tavern.
re: OC Mutt
It seems to me your list is missing some good New York Italian food.
Have you decided on the Met game/dinner that night?
re: NellyNel
Yes, but I plan on having Italian outside city when I'm upstate. I have some favorites I cannot wait to return to, therefore the Italian takes a back seat while I'm in Manhattan. As for dinner on Mets game day, no decision yet. Stadium food just doesn't sound great to me even if it is good, mainly because I despise waiting in long lines and avoid them like the plague.
re: OC Mutt
Take the 7 train one stop past Citi Field to get to downtown Flushing.
Here is a very recent Flushing Main Street thread:
re: OC Mutt
Oh Okay
It's hard to recommend a specific place when I don't know your tastes - although from your list I'd say you have varied tastes! (as most Ch'ers do)
Since you are having a refined lunch the 2nd day, and should be going to the Met game that night.....My suggestion would be for a hearty comfort food type meal, and then grabbing a good hero and a few snacks to take to the game with you.
What kinds of ethnic foods are you lacking for in LA?
re: NellyNel
LA has an unpleasant lack of decent Italian red sauce (but I'm scratching that itch in my travels upstate), NY style pizza (but our gourmet pizzas are awesome), good bread, and bagels (handled). Other than that, LA doesn't really have a lack for any particular ethnic food, and in general has a wide selection of top food, second only to NYC, which IMHO has the best Hound Chow in the world.
re: OC Mutt
You should check out some Indian while in NYC -- much better than LA unless you're in Artesia. There's some great Indian in Queens, so that is something to consider before the Mets game. In Manhattan, I'd try either a Kati roll or a Roomali roll at the restaurants of the same names. Another weakness of LA is middle eastern -- check out Azuri Cafe or Olympic Pita in Manhattan. For baked goods, I highly recommend Grandaisy in Soho. Try some of their Roman-style pizza and a chocolate torte.
re: a_and_w
Olympic Pita has changed their name, and tried to go upscale. I think you can still get a sandwich for take out in the front, but they may have switched to the lavash entirely. It's also hard to get anyone's attention in that front area.
Last time I went at night, the restaurant had an extremely pricey menu, loud trance music playing in the background, and they were pushing mixed drinks, and their sushi bar. Time Out NY still listed it as a cheap eat, but I wouldn't bother going back.
re: sugartoof
Sadness...I wish Azuri and Pick-A-Pita were open later. Another middle eastern place to try is Taim, though it's vegetarian only. I was pleased to see the owner featured on Chopped this season.
re: OC Mutt
I really like the fries there, and usually have the steak tartare as well. The plateau de fruits de mer (sp?) is wonderful - there are two sizes. The wines by the carafe are quite reasonable and decent by the way.
Lol, are you going to bring a baker's dozen of Ess-a-bagel home with you on the plane? They actually freeze alright if you do.
I can understand the Ess-a-bagel repeat. but there are lots of tasty brunch places like Penelope's.
As for JG, even if you don't get dessert, you can leave pleasantly full, and they provide 4 chocolates and 3 flavors of fluffy marshmellows for dessert. But I really urge getting dessert on top :)
I wish we could talk you out of Carnegie for 2nd Ave Deli. The last time I went there, well, it's pretty unmentionable. Suffice it to say, I was nearly burned by the plate and one of the other people I was dining with missed out on the rest of her trip due to food poisoning.
re: windycity
As for Ess-A-Bagel, I keep meaning to have them overnight shipped but never do. I should do it once a year as a treat. Anyone think Russ and Daughters is worth the trip? As for delis, I tried them all, including Katz's, and 2nd ave. deli (where I loved the crusty pushy waitress, but was not wowed by the food), and I like Carnegie the best. Particularly the cheesecake, which is my favorite from all the delis. Just personal preference - I LOVE their pastrami and chopped liver sandwich, which to me is the best around. They have awesome chopped liver. Thanks for the JG advice. I'm really torn over that vs. 11 Madison Park.
re: OC Mutt
Is there pastrami/chopped liver combo? I'm a fan of the roast beef/chopped liver with onion sandwich but I usually get a separate pastrami to go along with it too.
re: OC Mutt
"Anyone think Russ and Daughters is worth the trip?"
Are you kidding? Best appetizing on the planet! It's a shop, not a restaurant, so take-out only. Btw, they ship.
re: OC Mutt
Are you more into bagels or into smoked salmon, etc? If you like smoked salmon, Russ & Daughters is amazing.
re: kathryn
well therein lies the rub! I love bagels and love smoked salmon. I cannot have smoked salmon without some sort of "delivery device", my overwhelming favorite is of course a bagel. I can however enjoy a bagel without smoked salmon, but the ultimate is the combination of the two.
re: OC Mutt
Not to worry: R&D also has very good bagels.
re: OC Mutt
of course you can't have smoked salmon without a "deliver device." i believe i read a paper once that speculated that the evolution of fingers was in response to the need to consume smoked fish when not in the presence of bagels, but i cant seem to remember the citation.
RGRs "are you kidding" sums it up - go, and order any and every type of smoked fish you can see. for me, the sable is unparalleled.
re: OC Mutt
The bagels are OK at Russ & Daughters. The salmon is UNREAL. Here's a suggestion: Bring a couple bagels from Essa. Get your salmon at R&D. Pair them together. Voila! Problem solved.
re: Slob
Imo, you are all forgetting another key ingredient: cream cheese. And a slice of onion couldn't hurt either. :)
I actually prefer my smoked salmon -- and cream cheese -- on pumpernickel bread. Locating a good loaf of that these days is, I think, more difficult than finding a good bagel.
re: Slob
Opinions of bagels vary widely here, and while I am not a fan of Ess-a-Bagel, I realize many are. But Russ & Daughter's are the real thing and true to their Eastern European roots: not inflated ballons, nice crust and chewy. I find that I can barely open my mouth wide enough for Essa's, enormous and bready. Trust R&D: their bagels are perfect and will not overpower the smoked fish = perfect delivery vehicle!
re: City Kid
I asked one of the countermen where Russ gets their bagels, and he told me they're specially made for them in Brooklyn. The bialys, of course, come from Kossar's.
Re: cream cheese. In addition to plain, they have cream cheese combined with other ingredients, for example, scallions.
re: RGR
Thanks to all! I will in fact then make the trip to R&D, BUT, one question, this may seem silly but as I've never been there, here it is. Can I order a bagel w/cream cheese and smoked salmon there and have them prepare it for me? Or do I have to just order the ingredients and attempt to put them together on my own? I know, I know, but I HAD to ask. I once went to H&H (on advice of the hounds) near Zabars and ended up attempting to cut, cream cheese and eat the bagel on a bench outside.
re: OC Mutt
Russ & Daughters will make you a bagel sandwich with the bagel and cream cheese and smoked salmon at the counter! They even have a menu of different sandwiches on their site.
H&H is weird in that it's one of the few places that won't make you a sandwich.
re: kathryn
My 2 cents worth... it's just as well that H&H wont make sandwiches, since their bagels have way too much sugar in them and this destroys the taste of the sandwich.. Russ & Daughters is a great sandwich (and great raw materials for a do it yourself, if that's what you wind up doing).
re: Steve R
Oh, I'm with you on that one. I'm not a fan of H&H. Now I cannot wait for R&D.
re: OC Mutt
Just a reminder, OC, that Russ is take-out only. There are two benches outside right in front of the store. Imo, not such a great place to enjoy your sandwich. If you don't feel like shlepping to one of Manhattan's many parks, there are two playgrounds with benches nearby: west of the store, on the corner of 1st Av. & 1st St., and a few blocks east, on the corner of Houston & Norfolk.
re: RGR
They can also go around the corner on Orchard, or Ludlow that doesn't and find an air conditioned bar, or cafe type place (that doesn't have their own menu, of course), to sit and enjoy a cold beverage while snacking. There are also benches outside the American Apparel store at the corner of Orchard.
re: sugartoof
Great tips - Thanks! Anyone think that Donut Plant is worth the trek? I've been hearing about it for years.
re: OC Mutt
I love Doughnut Plant, but we have much better doughnuts in LA.
re: OC Mutt
Yeah I had that experience once but it was later at night and I was kinda drunk. Plastic knives, no cutting surface, in wobbly hands make for an amusing spectacle.
re: OC Mutt
Depending on what day you go, I'll try to fit in a short trip over to Kossar's Bialeys.
Russ & Daughters is a must visit kind of place.
With Ess a Bagel, I've been finding that you have to go with whatever is still hot. They're not sitting well, and even by the end of the day, I've had trouble chewing through one. I don't think anyone else here has reported similarly, but I've found this to be the case at both locations.
re: OC Mutt
If you're going to do a second bagel shop, I recommend Murray's, which I personally prefer to both Ess-A-Bagel and Russ & Daughters, though I'm not a lox guy. Skip H&H, which is only a small step above the mediocre puffy Noah's Bagels we have in LA.
re: a_and_w
any recommendations?
re: OC Mutt
re: a_and_w
Sorry, someone had mentioned that I should try Middle Eastern cuisine, which I absolutely love (despite the generally nasty service I've gotten while eating at places all over the world), so I was asking for recommendations for some good M.E. eats, hopefully with service minus the scowl.
re: OC Mutt
LOL! Unfortunately, my favorite middle eastern places in NYC tend to be a little unfriendly. Azuri Cafe (51st and 10th) is hands down the best falafel, shawarma, and hummus I've ever had. The owner Ezra is a legendary grump but has apparently mellowed a LOT in the last few years. If at all possible, I urge you to go there for a small falafel combo plate. Just keep in mind they close early (around 8pm) and are closed sundown Friday through sundown Saturday.
For a much friendlier experience, I suggest Taim on Waverly Place. It's vegetarian-only and a tiny step below Azuri, but still spectacular. One of the few places in NYC that serves Sabich, a sandwich made with fried eggplant and hard-boiled eggs. Another friendly place is Pick-A-Pita (38th btw 7th and 8th) but they are only open for lunch.
Another place I've often recommended is Olympic Pita on 38th, but they recently changed their name and owner. If there's still an Olympic Pita Express on E12th, that might be worth a try. Be sure to get the laffa bread. Rainbow and Mamoun's are two other possibilities, but I strongly believe they're a step below the other places I've mentioned.
re: a_and_w
Just to add a footnote, Taim has kind of their own fancied up, healthy, approach. It was less traditional than I expected. If you like hot sauce condiments, they make their own, and I suspect they really help give their food the flavor I found it lacked. I'm not so big on adding hot sauce, peppers, pickles or any of that to my pita, so I found it a little flat, personally. I also get the feeling it's better on days when the owner is popping in. I really just it's own thing.
re: OC Mutt
When we return to NoCal from NYC we bring two dozen bagels, either carryon or checked. We wrap each one tightly in plastic wrap and then put four into a one gallong zipping bag. They last for months (we ration them). They need to be toasted but they're wonderful.

Can For-Profit Tech Colleges Be Trusted?
ITT Tech & DeVry (557 comments)
I went to ITT Technical Institute to get my Associate of Applied Sciences and am going to DeVry University for a Bachelors in computer science. So take it from someone that went there - First, the cost is extremely expensive; even for an AAS which I could have received from Pima Community College. The difference is that my AAS is specialized. I didn't have to take a humanities course or a psychology course, this was a huge benefit to me. I had already had experience in the small-form factor computing industry not to mention experience with servers, routers and enterprise level network infrastructure. The degree allowed me to refine my skill set and my computer practices. Second, the people that feel their getting shafted are the same type of people that would feel they get shafted from their educators at a public institution. They chose to go into computer science because they figure, "...hey it's computers, i use them everyday and I figure they should be easy to learn about." That's a quote from one of my fellow ex-students. They don't realize that computers like any skill set requires some type of training whether it be private self taught training or through a get-to-know-your-computer-class training. They start taking the classes which are intermediate to advanced level class concepts and are completely lost. These are also the type of people that don't put much effort into their education so conversely, they don't get much out of their education. Third, there is a misconception that public universities such as U of A and ASU and Caltech are not for profit institutions. Their out there to get your dollar just the same way the for-profit institutions are. What it depends on is what your looking for in a program, institution, and education. Some people don't want to spend credit hours on a degree that has you take humanities and sociology courses. I needed an advanced program that would allow me to get into my field faster. Just so happens I started my own company. Finally, It falls on the individual to have due-diligence to look into what's offered at their ITT/DeVry/U of Phoenix to make sure it's a good fit for them. Don't go into something without doing to research first. That's just reckless decision making.

California — Ask Jonathan what he thinks about his dialysis center opening up a nocturnal program and he replies, "Thank you. I love it!"
Jonathan's kidney failure happened seven years ago. He had a transplant that lasted three years, and now he is back on hemodialysis until another kidney becomes available. Jonathan said he chose nocturnal dialysis for health reasons. "My sister is a nurse," Jonathan shares, adding, "She did all the research and told me this treatment is better on the heart and people live a longer life."
"This is my second week of nocturnal dialysis," says the 6'3" man reclining in the dialysis chair with an additional stool under his feet. "I have more energy. I even painted my kitchen today. And, I have an appetite for the first time in so long — I haven't had an appetite in forever." With the longer dialysis sessions, Jonathan says he also enjoys having a little more fluids.
Nocturnal dialysis has provided both lifestyle and health benefits for Jonathan in only two weeks. "I have my days free, my energy is up and my quality of life has shot up. My blood pressure has gone down — it's actually normal now — my doctor was thrilled. He knocked off one dose of my blood pressure medicines."
Jonathan's new dialysis schedule is easy for him to follow. "I get her about 8:30 p.m. and get on around 9:00 p.m. At about 11:00 p.m. the lights go down and I sleep here. Between 5:30 a.m. or 6:00 a.m., I'm on my way home. This is perfect for my lifestyle."
"I like to be active during the days, but I would have cramps so bad I would go home after dialysis and go to bed. I used to do the first morning shift and would get home around 8:30 a.m. and sleep until 1:30 p.m. The long nap wasted half my day," Jonathan explains. "After my first nocturnal session, I went home and washed and waxed my car — I saved myself 35 bucks," he laughs. Jonathan is also planning on going back to school to be an x-ray technician. After a career in banking he would like to get into the medical field.
While Jonathan waits for another kidney transplant, he is excited to have the in-center nocturnal hemodialysis program offered at his center. According to Jonathan, "The benefits for me are phenomenal. It fits my lifestyle perfectly. I have my days now to spend with my friends and family. I walked four miles yesterday. I now can take my dogs out for a walk everyday. I can even take them for two walks. If you have a spouse or kids at home you'd be crazy not to do this. This is a great program."

It's a New Year, and that means planning your stock for the coming seasons.
We start exhibiting our current and New designs at The Scotland Fair at the SECC in Glasgow on 23rd January through to 25th. We will be at stand LG22, and would love to see current and new customers alike.

With Christmas just round the corner, we have this week promoted The Cuties and Pals, to increase awareness of our 2 new characters, Pookie the pig and Cazbi the bee.
We hope this will generate interest and increase sales, so check if any advertising will happen in your local area (see below), and make sure you have enough stock!

Premier Christian Radio-London
Romford Recorder
Epping forest
Picture Case had undertaken a UK advertising campaign to promote the Brand before Christmas.
This will include Radio and Press competitions to win a "Picture Case" which will give the brand exposure and hopefully will encourage that "something different" Xmas purchase.
So have a look at the areas that we will be advertising in and make sure you have the stock for the exposure next week.
Sunday Mail – Scotland
BRMB – Birmingham
Wyvern – Hereford & Worcestershire
Mercia – Coventry & Warwickshire

In a great Christmas atmosphere, thousands of shoppers flocked through the large depatment store, with our displaying catching the eye of young and old. Many Cuties were sold, with Pookie coming out tops!

My husband & I have purchased over $5000.00 in merchandise from Rent-a-center over that past few years.We have never had aproblem with them until recently, when my husband became ill and unable to work, and i lost my job due to company closing.
We have always been apart of the preferred customer club. Now it seem that someone in the company has cancelled it, when we need it to help pay our bills. The manager at store #1295 in Savannah, Georgia,(Tony) says he does'nt know who cancelled it. We did'nt.
They picked up the livingroom set, and money is still owed on two other items.WE need this resolved before we pay out money we don't really have.bce3b8f
RAC Employee Sep 07, 2010
I work at RAC and I'm really sorry to hear about all the troubles you've had recently! Have you called the customer support line at 800-422-8186 so you could escalate the issue to the district manager of that store? I forwarded your post to the customer support team, so they may already be giving you call to get more information - but since you didn't post your name, just the store number, it might be difficult for them to follow up to see if they can help.
Please call the support line and best wishes getting through everything that's going on right now!
Great comment! Would you like to convert it into review?

November 21, 2014
A legislative panel has backed a plan meant to extend broadband access to rural Iowans, though an agreement hasn't been reached on language about the placement of new cell towers.
The House Ways and Means Committee voted 16-to-9 Tuesday to advance the measure, but differences remain about language in the bill that gives cellular companies more uniform standards for tower placement. Local officials have argued those new rules could limit their control over tower placement decisions.
Rep. Peter Cownie, a West Des Moines Republican, says his goal is to work with cellular providers while not stripping local governments of their control in cell tower siting. He promises to find common ground before anything is signed into law.
The legislation is now eligible for floor debate.

Wow, this sure is a speculative in-depth analysis of MGS V's Mother Base
What do we know about Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain's Mother Base thus far? Not a whole lot. We had an E3 presentation that contained parts of it, but not really anything concrete yet. Anything else is pure speculation.
And pure speculation is what this video's all about! Although, I have to hand it to the guy -- his analysis seems well-thought-out, and probably spot-on in a lot of cases. But, we'll have to wait until sometime in the (hopefully) not too distant future to find out.

Where do you turn in severe weather?Posted Wednesday, April 28, 2010, at 3:13 PM
When we have severe weather in the forecast and sky conditions indicate something may be on the verge of happening in Bedford County, which Nashville television station do you trust the most? Why?. Or, do you just look out the window and make your own forecast?

I actually rely on my weather radio. Most of the time in inclement weather, my satellite goes out. Much easier just to listen to my battery operated Weather friend.
-- Posted by mercy1 on Wed, Apr 28, 2010, at 3:23 PM
I actually watch them all to get as much info as possible. Looking out the window does not hurt either.
I am a bit dense and actually like to stand outside and experience it as much as possible. I draw the line at actual tornadoes, but otherwise I stand outside the glass door so I can see the weather maps and experience "Mother Nature".
-- Posted by stevemills on Wed, Apr 28, 2010, at 3:50 PM
We also use the NOAA weather radio. It actually saved us last year or so when the tornado came through here. The TV channels didn't say anything about this area.
-- Posted by PrpleHze on Wed, Apr 28, 2010, at 8:30 PM
I usually watch channel 2 and turn my laptop to the weather channel. You can turn on the radar and watch as the weather comes into your neighborhood and keep up with weather alerts. If the electricy goes out, I have the battery powered weather radio.
-- Posted by ZNanny on Thu, Apr 29, 2010, at 5:20 PM
Channel 2. Lisa's professional, but compassionate approach when she had to over that tornado a couple of years ago, knowing her mother was in the midst of it, has impressed me deeply and create a loyal weather watcher. That and they have the coolest graphics, LOL!

the internet / national weather service, you can get the watches and warnings real time as they do at the TV stations.As well as radar.
-- Posted by docudrama on Sat, May 1, 2010, at 12:49 AM
I generally use the local channels, the internet and my police scanner. I agree with MotherMayhem, Channel 2 has the best graphics.

Summer in Chicago: Music Festival Heaven (Party Marty)on March 23, 2012 at 12:10 pm
There really isn't a whole lot of positive news out there. Chicago sports haven't exactly been their best recently, with the exception of the Bulls and Mr. Rose, of course. Illinois Division 1 sports are going down the tubes. The economy is still in the shitter, not showing any signs of improving any time soon. The school system is just as bad. We are looking at a possibility of getting into another war or two. It's all pretty depressing. But spring is finally here and festival season is right around the corner. It's getting to be that time of year when all the summer music festivals are announcing their lineups and starting to sell tickets. For me, music has been the shining ray of hope and happiness in a very dark time, and Chicago may be the best place to live in the summer if you are a music fan. And it is only getting better.
Sure, there are bigger festivals than Lollapalooza — which is by far Chicago's biggest music festival — and there are definitely states that have more festivals than Illinois, but there really is no better city to be in during the summer if you are a music-freak like myself. I'll prove it in 11 different points (I tried for ten, but ten can't contain the Chicago music festival scene).
1. – Lollapalooza: Arguably the best alternative music festival in the country, nay, the world. This festival has been around for a decade and shows no signs of slowing down. They even contribute back to the city by leaving the grounds downtown at Grant Park more beautiful than they found them, all without using taxpayer dollars. Started by Jane's Addiction front-man, Perry Ferrell, Lollapalooza has been the name in alternative music festivals around the world. Sure, the ex-travelling festival may be branching out to Chile, Brazil and other countries around the world, but Chicago's first weekend in August continues to be the premier Lollapalooza weekend. Where else could you see Cold War Kids, Kid Cudi, Foo Fighters and Deadmau5 all playing at the same time???
Three-day passes go on sale this week for the "Secret Sale." No, the lineup isn't up yet, but have you ever seen a Lollapalooza lineup that wasn't worth at least twice that? If you're not quick enough to get on the $75 secret sale (they usually get snatched-up in a couple of hours), you will be able to by three-day passes at the early bird price on March 27th for $200. Official Site
2. – North Coast Music Festival: The premier electronic/hip hop music festival of the midwest. Last year saw David Guetta, Wiz Khalifa, Benny Banassi, STS9 aka Sound Tribe Sector 9 (which has crazy followers like Deadheads, which I hope are just referred to collectively as the Sound Tribe) and many other huge acts. When it comes to hoppin' on a bus or cab to the land of eargasms (a.k.a. Union Park), North Coast is about as good as it gets. "Summer's Last Stand" definitely lived up to the hype this past year and I'm sure this summer will be no different. Official Site
3. – Lollapalooza After Parties: There are very few festivals that will allow their artists to play shows anywhere near the festival location within a month. Perry Ferrell slaps every other festival promoter in the face by not only allowing it, but supporting it by tying Lollapalooza artists' Chicago shows to the festival itself. Now, these shows aren't a few weeks before or after the festival, they are DURING the festival. People that have lived in Chicago the past decade have no idea how truly unique of an experience this is. Of course, during these shows there are guest appearances up the yin-yang, and those that can't afford the higher prices of the festival can still afford to catch their favorite artists from Lollapalooza for a fraction of the cost. Way to be a man of the people, Perry! This past year, if you were fast enough, you could have seen The Foo Fighters at one of the smaller venues in Chicago in The Metro (where Jane's Addiction chose for their CD release party this past fall).
4. – Pitchfork Music Festival: Pitchfork Magazine is one of the most highly respected names in indie music and their summer festival in Grant Park, the same location as Lollapalooza, will be bringing amazing indie music from all over the world to Chicago for the 8th-straight year. This year's headliners include Vampire Weekend, A$AP Rocky, AraabMUZIK and Feist, with more to be announced before the festival hits July 13-15. If you were fortunate enough to go last year, you would have been a part of a mudfest that made Lollapalooza's Sunday look like a dry afternoon in the desert. Official Site
5. – Spring Awakening Music Festival: This is a new one this year; Held at Soldier Field, this brand new 2-day festival will feature the very best in electronic/dance music on Saturday June 16th and Sunday June 17th. Headliners include Skrillex, Afrojack, Wolfgang Gartner, Diplo, Laidback Luke, Flux Pavillion, Moby and a dozen other heavy-hitters. If all you want is the dance music and nothing else, this is your weekend. Considering that all 7 DJs I mentioned usually sell their tickets for about $30 or $40 for a solo show, $120+fees/taxes is peanuts! Official Site
6. – Chicago Blues Festival: Top blues acts from all over the world converge on Chicago's Grant Park for three days of top tier music at the world's largest free blues festival. Started in 1984, every June you can stroll around the park's grounds listening to the best in up-and-coming blues musicians as well as the living legends. You can also catch some blues-centric jazz, rock, and soul throughout the festival. Over the past 27 years the festival has seen larger than life acts such as B.B. King, Chuck Berry, Etta James, Keith Richards and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Official Site
And hey, if you're out of town for that weekend or you're more of a night owl, check out Kingston Mines on N. Halsted St. every night until 4am (5am on Saturdays) for the best blues in Chicago from the likes of Joanna Connor and Linsey Alexander, who live for the music. This place is especially amazing in the summer, and I have the not-safe-for-public stories to prove it.
7. – Chicago Jazz Festival: Celebrating its 34th year this summer, the Chicago Jazz Festival is held at, you guessed it, Grant Park. The four-day festival occurs on Labor Day weekend and, like the Chicago Blues Festival, is 100% free. Also like the blues festival, the jazz festival brings together the best of Chicago, the nation and the world. Run by the Jazz Institute of Chicago, this festival also includes late night performances at locations throughout the city. Past legendary performers include Miles Davis, Benny Carter and Ella Fitzgerald. Official Site
8. – World Music Festival Chicago: Musicians from all different genres and locations around the world come to the city to showcase their music across various locations all over Chicago. One of the best parts of this festival is that artists will play multiple sets across different locations. So, even if you have to work one night or the show is on the other side of the city, chances are you can catch that same act when and where you can make it. World Music Festival: Chicago returns September 21- 27. Official Site
9. – Neighborhood music festivals: Every weekend of the summer there is a neighborhood music festival. Admission ranges from free to $10, which grants you access to usually two or three stages of live music. Last year I went to the Roosevelt Street Festival to see Reverend Horton Heat, but was pleasantly surprised to hear the most famous Japanese comic punk band in the world open. Before Peelander Z, I can't remember the last time I went to a concert and the band got the entire crowd to yell out how they like their steaks cooked.
10. – Summer Camp Music Festival: Less than three hours from Chicago (near Peoria), Summer Camp Music Festival at Three Sisters Park is a great way to get out of the city and into mother nature during your music festival weekends. Hosted in Chillicothe, IL, this 3-day long festival is host to over 100 different bands on 6 stages. Over the past 11 years of the festival's history, they have been host to legends like Willie Nelson, The Flaming Lips, George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic and Medeski Martin & Wood. This year's headliners for the May 25-27 festival include moe., Umphrey's McGee, Jane's Addiction, Pretty Lights, Lotus, Zed's Dead and electronic supergroup Gigantic Ungerground Conspiracy (featuring members from Big Gigantic, Underground Orchestra and Conspirator/The Disco Biscuits). For under $200 ($100 if you were on top of things) it is a steal for the caliber of talent involved in the event, which is basically the midwest Bonnaroo. Official Site
11. Every Other Festival in Driving Distance: Cabin Fever Indoor Camping and Music Festival (Peoria), headlined by Rusted Root, is a unique concept where people actually camp at the indoor venues. Summerfest (Milwaukee) is a short train, car or bus ride away. With over a million attendees and hundreds of bands over 11 days, it is a great way to get out of the state for a day, get drunk, eat decent food and jam out to one of the dozen headliners playing every night. Electric Forest Music Festival (Rothbury, MI) is a shorter drive than Detroit and is host to the biggest names in electronic music. Identity Music Festival doesn't always tour the same cities (and never Chicago), but it always hits a city within driving distance of Chicago. This is THE electronic music tour of the USA. There are also about 10 different alternative rock music festivals in northern Illinois and Wisconsin every year that are easily within driving distance.
With six huge festivals within city limits, dozens of neighborhood festivals and another couple-dozen festivals within driving distance (not to mention all of the acts that just stop by during their tours) Chicago is clearly the heavy-hitter when it comes to summer music. And if you are looking for a plentiful source of pride and joy in the Windy City, the live music scene is definitely that bright, shining light.
If you can't afford to buy concert tickets, check out sites like do312.com, venue websites and Facebook pages, and your favorite radio station's website for plenty of opportunities to win free tickets. I think I won about 30 pairs of tickets last year, all to shows I actually wanted to attend.

A Goshen woman was sentenced to four years in prison for her role in a deadly shooting earlier this year, according to reporting partners at the Elkhart Truth.
Elisa Horton, 22, pleaded guilty last month to a felony charge of assisting a criminal in connection with the murder of John Staub.
Her guilty plea placed a cap on the number of years she would be sentenced, and dropped a criminal gang enhancement charge.
Staub was shot and killed back in March after a fight near River and Chicago Avenues turned deadly. Three others were injured.
Horton admitted to driving three co-defendants to and from the scene that night.

Fire department gets training in tactical combat casualty care
Fredericksburg City Manager Bev Cameron reports that the city's Fire Department received specialized training recently in conjunction with the FBI.
Fire Department personnel took part in a course on Tactical Combat Casualty Care, the same course SWAT teams and military personnel receive. They also took part in Tactical Emergency Casualty Care training.
The goal of both courses is to prepare EMS personnel to prioritize in a hostile atmosphere, Cameron reported.
The programs are geared to helping EMS personnel safely enter scenes that are not fully secure and safely treat and evacuate patients.

Comparing Personal Brands: Bill Gates vs. Steve Jobs
Posted By Anthony Garcia On January 9, 2008 @ 6:00 pm In Branding,humor | No Comments
Well earlier this week Bill Gates said goodbye to his daily grind at Microsoft. He also gave his last speech at CES.
In case you missed his farewell tribute, enjoy…
But will Gates actually stop making headlines? Probably not so much.
Gates still retains his title as one of the richest dudes in the world and, of course, he will now focus on making the world a better place [1]. It's enough for even the biggest Mac fanboy to have a few warm fuzzies for Gates [2].
Everyone raves about the charisma of Apple's Steve Jobs, but can you picture Jobs poking fun at himself like this? Where will we find Bill Gates next?
It's been a good week for personal brands & authenticity; first Hillary sobs [3], then Gates makes Jobs looks a little like a statue [4].
Who woulda thunk it?

Global shifts in manufacturing, consumption trends, and international competition are three factors that will shape the future of goods movement and the demand for warehouse and distribution space, according to a report issued by The NAIOP Research Foundation.
MANUFACTURING. The report says global shifts in manufacturing have occurred as supply chain tracking systems and logistics networks better support remote production sites that offer lower labor costs. Challenges – including delivery of parts for production and delivery of finished products – make predictability more difficult in the supply chain. Many value-added jobs have moved from the United States to other countries, helping these countries move toward their own economic stability.
CONSUMPTION. India and China will account for an estimated 25-40% of the total world demand for goods and services by 2025. These consumers will have a dramatic impact on the site selection process for the manufacturing facilities and distribution centers. In 2011, China is expected to out-produce the United States for the first time.
GLOBAL COMPETITION. International markets are improving their attractiveness to business and competing with the United States for multi-national marketing, investment, research and development, and manufacturing. Increasing pressure from new entries into the roster of countries that are attractive to multi-nationals include the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) countries as the top locations for foreign direct investment in 2009-2011. The report said government policies have an impact on manufacturing in the United States; key to retaining competitiveness and attractiveness is to re-frame business policies with a focus on corporate taxes, research and development taxes, and consistent application of policy regulations. These will help ensure that U.S.-based companies are not hindered and that investment is seen as less risky in the U.S. than elsewhere.
