Amtrak spending not 'wasted'
Concerning the funds "wasted" on Amtrak, one should realize that the funding received by Amtrak is a pittance compared with that which most foreign governments provide for their national railroad passenger service.
It also is a pittance contrasted to the vast sums spent on highways and for the airlines, which don't own a square foot of an airport, nor the air traffic control system.
Yet "experts" compare Amtrak service with foreign services, then rant about the "losses."
It is noted that the passenger services of many state-run railroads "lose" money, yet their passenger systems provide an eco-friendly service, reducing vehicular traffic on their highways. I suspect that dollar-for-dollar we get more out of Amtrak than many foreign systems.
It would be most refreshing if you were pushing for an expanded Amtrak, especially if the expansion were to be a long-lost Miami-Chicago train, preferably through Atlanta, Chattanooga and Knoxville.
Amtrak, while offering over 500 destinations, is still underfunded. There are many potential routes that need to be activated, and equipment purchased to enable enhanced service on existing routes. How about multiple daily trains rather than one on long-haul routes.

Favors not where she needs to be
I was amused by Rep. JoAnne Favors' comments concerning Ms. Rhonda Thurman's comments in the Times Free Press.
However, just four sentences spoken, and Rep. Favors heads to Chattanooga to get some press and voice her righteous indignation. Where has she been?
Where is Rep. Favors' concern for the prevalent gang and violence problems, chronic unemployment, substance abuse and general economic malaise of her constituency?
Where, I ask?
Nashville, wasting our taxpayer dollars heading up countless committees that effectively do nothing. That's where.
SCOTT HARRINGTON, Ooltewah
Fix Medicare, don't demolish it
As Ronald Reagan said, "Facts are stubborn things." Voters in the arch conservative 26th District of New York were being told by the GOP candidate the Ryan budget plan would not do away with Medicare, but would "save it." She said she would have voted for it. When the voters dug into the Ryan plan and read the facts in it, they found the GOP candidate was misleading them and that Medicare, in fact, would be eliminated. Most of us know the result; for the first time in decades, a Democrat was elected in that district.
The GOP's budget (Ryan plan) bill does abolish Medicare for those under age 55 and replaces it with a voucher (or coupon) plan. In other words, it "privatizes" health care for seniors.
Many do not realize that all Tennessee GOP congressional representatives and Sens. Alexander and Corker voted for this bill.
Many of my conservative friends claim the GOP plan will "fix" or "correct" Medicare. If you had a fine car that needed a "tune-up" you obviously could "fix" or "correct" it by destroying it. Medicare needs a major "tune-up" for future generations, not total demolition.
CHARLES J. ROGERS, Lynchburg, Tenn.
GOP interests not for working people
The current economic crisis is in large part due to Republican economic policies.
They also have stifled every attempt by President Obama to overcome it. They refused to vote sufficient money to provide a real stimulus and then blamed its lackluster effect on the president and the ineffectiveness of federal help.
Now they are claiming the debt, which they never considered a problem when they increased it with unfunded wars and tax cuts, the major problem facing this country.
It is a cynical ploy to alarm working Americans into accepting policies that are against their economic interests.
The real problem is unemployment, which leaves millions of Americans unable to buy the goods that American businesses provide.
Corporations won't provide the jobs because people can't buy what they produce. Only the federal government can provide the economic stimulus to get the economy moving again as it did during the Great Depression.
Republicans had no problem increasing the national debt by giving tax cuts to the already wealthy, but they refuse to increase it by giving the federal government the means to create jobs.
Despite all their rhetoric, Republicans continue to prove that their interests are not those of working Americans.

Response to benefit cookout amazing
To the citizens of Catoosa and surrounding counties:
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Your kindness and generous support of the American Legion-sponsored Fourth of July Benefit Cookout was, in a word, amazing.
More than 1,400 pounds of ribs and chicken, approximately 60 gallons of baked beans, and 50 gallons of slaw were prepared for the event. Yet, some of you arrived only to be told not enough had been prepared. Please accept our heartfelt apology.
Many of us involved in preparing food for the occasion had envisioned eating leftovers for several days. It is evident we underestimated the compassionate nature and supportive spirit of our friends and neighbors.
Again, we sincerely apologize to those who were unable to be served, and we thank all of you for your wonderful support. It is with the help of kind and loving people like you that we will be able to rebuild our sanctuary.

Hazelwood choice is a good one
Picking Patsy Hazelwood for the important position as regional director for the state's Job4TN initiative will prove to be one of Gov. Haslam's best decisions since taking office.
Those of us who have worked with Patsy at the Chattanooga Area Chamber of Commerce, United Way and the Stadium Corp. know first-hand of her ability and reputation for getting things done. I say thank you, Governor.
His plan to have nine regional directors who will work with our small city and county mayors will be a plus for smaller communities and give us the opportunity to be at the table in competition for landing new industry. I feel strongly that great cities like Crossville will have a better chance to be successful.
Here we are in Crossville with a well-managed city and county, with top-notch mayors, over 1,000 acres of prime land to offer, great schools, low crime rates, a top-rated hospital — plus a great work force. If his appointment ranks up there for our area with Patsy Hazelwood — we've got a chance.
CURTIS D. ADAMS, City Manager and Economic Director, City of Crossville, Tenn.
Are sagging pants here to stay?
What happened to the good old days when clothing styles used to change?
I remember wearing bell bottoms for a while. Then came flared pants. Straight legs, cuffs, no cuffs.
These days, it looks as if sagging is here to stay. How long has it been? When, oh when, will it ever end?
I am tired of looking at dirty boxer shorts. Will the person who brought us sagging please give us something else? It is way past time.
Ted Tumelaire and Charles Rogers, you continue the Blame Republicans for all the economic woes. Are you employed by the other party's National Committee? BOTH PARTIES have done nothing to really help and continue not to do so. They are so busy posturing for re-election and blaming the other side, people become confused about something as troubling as the whole truth. I am so tired of Reagan and the Bushes being blamed in the media it is hard to read it. Obviously you two and many others buy it. So keep voting the other ones in and just see what it gets us.
Ernest Harris, daisy dukes with white girls butt cheeks hanging out and halter tops have been the style much longer than the saggy pants. What about those lowriding hip-hugging jeans that shows the butt cracks of some of these girls? Don't hear you complaining about those. Wonder why? Too busy oggling?
hip huggers were in style about the same time as bell bottoms. I've actually never witnessed anyone sporting dirty drawers who were wearing saggy pants. Usually they are wearing one pair of short pants over their underwear and another pair of short pants or long-legged pants on top of those short pants that actually sags.
Scott Harrington said:
Where is Rep. Favors' concern for the prevalent gang and violence problems, chronic unemployment, substance abuse and general economic malaise of her constituency?<
Apparently, Mr. Harrington of Ootlewah has his head in the sand. Those issues he mentions infecting Ms. Favors constituency are also prevelant in his neck of the woods.
Ms. Favors also lives in Chattanooga, Mr. Harrington. In fact, I think she lives right there among her constituency.
The Libertarian says, "I'm sick of paying for trains I don't even use". More evidence of the raging selfishness that drives Libertarianism. He then complains about how expensive Amtrak is calling it "welfare for the rich". Does this imply that you would support Amtrak If it were efficient and cheap? Forgive me if I have my doubts. Since you still wouldn't be using it personally, then apparently its benefit to your fellow citizens would be of no consequence to you.

For an artist who thrives on social commentary, the shitty state of the nation sure provides a wealth of inspiration. Take San Francisco artist Jeremy Fish for example: Every piece in his new collection, Weathering the Storm, was created in 2009. A look into the American landscape, this series touches on subjects like the dying automobile and print industries; the greed of those in power, and natural disasters that ravage our cities. But before you pass this exhibit off as a complete downer, know this: Fishs artistic career has included vinyl toys, skateboards and album art for hip-hop artistsand he has a flair for the kitsch. So while therell be depressing subject matter, its done with bunnies and really cool skulls.

I installed k2 on a domain I was experimenting with. I found it to be very buggy. I even paid a developer to help me with my issues. I then just got fed up and uninstalled everything including joomla. I did a fresh and clean install of both Joomla and K2. That fixed the problems I was having except that I noticed that there were still some issues with SEF extensions. Not anything that worries me too much. I don't absolutely have to have them right now and I'm sure soon there the issue will be resolved...
I must say though I am completely turned off by the owners replies he/she are giving. Free extension or not, hold a professional demeanor. You are doing JoomlaWorks a great disservice. Maybe you should see how other developers respond and aide and take notes.

O'Driscoll has the Wallabies worried
Greg Growden
February 3, 2013
Ireland's Brian O'Driscoll celebrates his score against Wales at the Millennium Stadium © PA Photos
The Wallabies are already preparing for that ageless warrior Brian O'Driscoll leading the Lions to Australia.
Wallabies coach Robbie Deans, during an interview with ESPNscrum before the opening round of Six Nations action, said that he anticipates Lions coach Warren Gatland looking for 'been there, done that' performers when he picks his leaders for the touring squad. Deans assumes O'Driscoll will be high up on Gatland's captaincy 'wish-list', with even Jonny Wilkinson a possibility to be in charge of the Lions midweekers.
Then to reinforce the fact, O'Driscoll used the Wales-Ireland Six Nations opener to remind all that even if he is no longer his country's official team captain, he remains Ireland's helmsman, producing a near faultless performance that emphasised his vast skills.
After such a resourceful effort, Gatland has probably already printed out a London-Sydney airline ticket which has seat 1A assigned to O'Driscoll. And if O'Driscoll continues to dominate over the next month and a half, they may as well get him to pilot the Lions plane to the other side of the world.
The importance of having a mature midfielder, who knows how to keep it simple when under pressure and to take advantage of any half chance, was on show at Millennium Stadium. O'Driscoll set up one try, scored another, stopped anyone who came into his zone, even tapped balls out of opponent's hands and then when Irishmen headed to the sin bin late in the game, showed his versatility by filling in at scrum-half.
So we now know that if No.9s start falling over during an arduous Australian tour, there is a certain someone whom they can call upon. O'Driscoll being able to flit around the scrum base would also open up a spare spot on the reserves bench.
No wonder after the game the Ireland team management admitted they had begun praying that this was not O'Driscoll's last Six Nations campaign. Understandable - as O'Driscoll is the heart and soul of Irish rugby.
In Australia, O'Driscoll is treated with the highest of respect. Maybe that has something to do with him being a bit of a lad off the field, developing over the years strong friendships with Australian sportsmen from numerous codes. On the field, Wallaby after Wallaby has grown accustomed to O'Driscoll either showing them up or just being a complete pest.
Undoubtedly there will be a concerted England push for their captain Chris Robshaw to be in charge of the Lions, and he certainly looked in control against Scotland. But Deans would have seen enough in O'Driscoll's Cardiff dance to start working on the required video tape analysis of Ireland's No.13 to hand to his Wallabies midfielders and to prime his leadership group on what to expect from their assumed opposing skipper.
Ireland see off Wales at the Millennium Stadium%]
It was a busy weekend for Deans, who headed to the rugby backwater of Tasmania to see the new NSW Waratahs recruit Israel Folau play his first major game of rugby after dabbling in rugby league and AFL. He liked what he saw in Folau during the Super Rugby trial match, with his size, speed and ability to handle the high ball bound to work in his favour when the Lions are in town.
Deans then headed back to Sydney to watch the Six Nations coverage, and would have been struck by the eagerness of Ireland, Wales, England and Scotland to play expansive football.
For weeks, we have been hearing that the Six Nations could be bogged down by teams dreading possession and being fearful of getting turned over. Kick-fests were anticipated. Thankfully it didn't happen. Instead in the first two matches came fast, fearless rugby, speed, rhythm and most importantly 12 tries - the bulk of which relied upon invention and vision.
Deans is not the only person saying in this part of the world - "More please!"

This is an easy, simple recipe that goes over well. You can make the filling ahead and scoop out the tomatoes well ahead of time but do not fill the tomatoes until just before serving.

CHESHIRE, Conn. — A Cheshire, Conn., police captain today defended the department's response at the scene of a home invasion that ended with the torture, rape and killing of Jennifer Hawke-Petit, and her two daughters, Hayley, 17, and Michaela,11, in 2007.
Capt. Robert Vignola acknowledged that a half-hour passed between the time police first learned of the break-in, and the time they saw the two accused murderers, Steven Hayes, 47, and Joshua Komisarjevsky, 30, run out of the house, get into the Petit's car, and try to escape. It was only then that police noticed the house was on fire.
Vignola said there was no sign of activity inside when police arrived, and that they set up a perimeter around the Petit house, in accordance with standard procedure. He said that if he had known what was going on inside, "I would have been the first one through that door," The Associated Press reported.

Fuquay Varina Emergency Food Pantry
The Fuquay Varina Emergency Food Pantry is a faith-based organization whose mission is to help as many area families as possible to ensure that they are not handicapped by hunger.
In 2013, we handed out over 6,922 boxes to needy families, which helped feed over 24,616 men, women and children, primarily in Fuquay Varina, Willow Spring and Holly Springs. We also handed out over 750 turkeys in November. We are anticipating similar numbers in 2014.
This Quarter's Meat Supply:
During July, August and September, the TEFAP program will be providing hamburger meat for our clients. Donations of boxed dinners such as Hamburger Helper would be a welcomed donation during this quarter, plus any other food that can stretch hamburger, such as diced tomatoes, kidney beans, chili seasoning packets, etc.
Fresh Produce:
Thanks to the generosity of our local grocers, church gardens, farmers and gardeners, we are able to provide fresh produce for our clients on a regular basis. One client remarked "Thank you, thank you. As a diabetic, I am not able to eat a lot of the boxed and canned goods or the breads, so it is so nice that there is fresh produce available. I cannot afford to get it in the stores." We are pleased to pass along her gratitude to our providers.
Food Drives Continue to help us stay in stock:
Many children continue to organize their own food drives and bring donations to the pantry. For this, we are most grateful. Our fire department has also been great about collecting food items for the pantry.
Members of Fuquay Varina Fire Department deliver an unload food at the pantry.
Thanksgiving News:
This year we were especially busy, handing out turkeys, stuffing, vegetables, cranberry sauce and gravy to over 750 families in the area. Thanks to the generous Thanksgiving donations from so many in our community, we were not forced to dip into the pantry's regular operational funds last year. This Thanksgiving we hope to do the same and will be distributing Thanksgiving gift cards soon. Cards will be provided for a $20.00 donation and a personal message can be written on the card.
Turkey Donation:
And speaking of Thanksgiving, Coldwell Banker Main Street Associates donated 50 turkeys for distribution at the Food Pantry in 2013. Volunteer Laeron Roberts picked up and delivered the turkeys to the pantry on November 21st (pictured below).
Children find many ways to help fight hunger:
The students in the fourth grade classes of Mrs. Flanagan and Mrs. Nations at St. Mary Magdalene School in Apex came up with a clever way to help others. They cultivated an herb garden and later sold most of the herbs and even used mint to flavor lemonade, which they also sold. They combined this money with money from a bake sale and made a generous donation to our food pantry in Fuquay as well as the Western Wake Crisis Ministry in Apex. Great job!
Davis Drive Elementary's Annual Drive:
A special thank you also goes to Davis Drive Elementary School for their successful food drive. The school collected over 100 boxes of food for our pantry again this year, filling more than three pick-up trucks and amounting to about 3,000 pounds. The citizens of Fuquay-Varina, Holly Springs, Willow Spring and throughout your community are grateful for your hard work and generosity.
Local children organize drives for the pantry:
Davis Kisinski and her brother, Jamie, ages 9 and 7 respectively, sold lemonade and cookies to raise money for the food pantry. They also organized a neighborhood food drive, collecting several boxes and bags of nonperishable goods. They raised and donated $84.00 as well as the cartload of food shown below.
A Special Birthday Present:
We also received a generous donation from Kara Dershem. Kara collected food donations at her 9th birthday party and delivered the food to the pantry. Check out her winning smile and generous face in the picture below, posing with the food she collected.
Making good use of old toys:
Kyle VanSteenbergen sold his Lego toys that he had outgrown and raised $75.00. He donated his money to the pantry to help provide food for those less fortunate. Way to go, Kyle.
Think About Your Leftovers:
If your office or school has events scheduled that involve food, please consider our food pantry for leftover or unused nonperishable goods.
Funding is always needed:
Besides donations of food, please keep in mind that we are spending more funds than usual to make up for the decrease in government supplies and increase in clients. Therefore, monetary donations are always greatly appreciated and are put to good use to buy those things we need. Check out our "Donate" tab on this site for a sample Christmas card as a way to enhance your holiday giving. All donations go toward food and staples for our clients, or for maintenance of the food pantry facilities. None of our board or our volunteers receive a salary.

- ONCE AGAIN, BISTRO 245 SHINES !!!!FloridaKeysGuyVIPDined on 11/21/2014Whenever I want to treat myself to a perfect dining experience, I head for Bistro 245, located in the picturesque Westin Resort and Marina in Key West, Florida. It is very rare to find a restaurant where the staff makes you feel so welcome, and where the quality of the food never falters. Yet Bistro 245 meets the challenge every time. I must confess that I ordered my favorite entree on this visit, just as I had many times in the past. It is the "Ahi Tuna and Avocado Salad", a delightful combination of sliced, sushi-grade ahi tuna (on a bed of mixed greens) paired with crispy fried wonton triangles and a spreadable avocado mash (which is molded into the shape of a cone with its tpo cut off). To complement the ahi, a generous amount of thinly-shaved pickled ginger root and a salad cup full of a spicy, soy-based dipping sauce are provided. (And did I mention? The portions are huge !). I was indeed fortunate to have as my server Inga, who is my favorite server. Inga is originally from the country of Moldova. Her professional manner, friendly disposition, and european charm combine to make her a server in high demand at Bistro 245. Maybe you will be seated in her section when you dine at this fabulous eatery. But if not, rest assured that all of the servers there do an awesome job, giving of themselves 100% to make your dining experience a memorable one. Another amazing feature of Bistro 245 is its scenic, waterfront location. The Westin Resort and Marina is situated "where the Gulf of Mexico meets the Atlantic Ocean", so as you can imagine, the view is breathtaking. And because the restaurant has outdoor patio-seating as well as inside dining, tables with a view are usually available. Of the inside tables, there are three four-tops right next to large floor-to-ceiling windows providing an unobstructed view of the patio and the waterfront. You can't beat Bistro 245 for its food, ambiance, and staff. " BRAVO ! " to you, Bistro 245 !Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- never againBasqueDined on 11/16/2014after standing around for over an hour waiting for a table to open up because 3/4 of the outside seating was reserved I finally had the idea to book a table using open table. To my surprise seating times were wide open and I booked a table for 6 within the next 20 minutes. We really felt as if the seating staff had no clue what was going on or cared to have any customers. By the way if you ask why we didn't sit inside, that would be because the AC was not working. Food was moderate at best, and although the hostess and manager seemed like complete idiots, the service was descent. I should also note that none of the tables that they claimed were reserved were ever used in the 2+ hours that we were there.Special Features:
- Outstanding waterside locationEllenVIPDined on 11/11/2014Located on a waterfront landing with beautiful Key West sunsets. Food was well prepared and tasty. Good service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Spectacular Seafood BrunchvivovDined on 9/21/2014The biggest freshest variety of seafood ever....raw bar, smoked salmon, sushi, ceviche, shrimp topped flatbread, caviers, poached fish. Carved beef and stuffed rolled beef. Omelet station. Superb selection of sweets..key lime tarts, danish, croissants, volcano cake, cheese cake, mousse, cannolli. An excellent assortment of food, beautifully displayed, served by a wonderful staff, located ocean front. The best in my memory.Special Features:
- Great place for brunch!BellaDined on 8/31/2014I absolutely love brunch at the Westin. I was very disappointed to see that there was no Lobster Mac&Cheese this time. Please bring it back!!! It's do die for!!Special Features:
- Best Dinner!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/6/2014We had dinner for our 20th wedding anniversary and could not have been happier! We had the crab cakes and avocado salad, which was phenomenal! We both had the beef tenderloin and it was cooked perfectly to order and so tender and tasty! Also Loved the frozen Rumrunner!!! Great experience!Special Features:
- The following 109 reviews are from the Bistro 245 reviews archive.
- Best view for dining at sunset!LocalVIPDined on 6/29/2014Quality, simple restaurant right off the Westin pier and perfect for sunsets. Husband LOVED the lobster and steak, but my Truffle Grouper was a little too rich. A little pricey, but worth it for a special night with good weather. Head upstairs later for a drink and better view.Special Features:
- great locationStraightTalkDined on 6/26/2014Either indoor (A/C) or outdoor a great view of the sunset over Sunset Key. Easy access to Mallory Square for the evening festivities. Westin parking garage. Good menu but pricey. The service was impeccable and the food expertly prepared and presented. All in all a delightful experience.Special Features:
- good choiceOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 5/31/2014group of six, the food was fresh and quality, service was good, price was fair, and would return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sunset dinner2hungryDined on 5/29/2014Our last night in key west called for a sunset dinner and there are a few choices around the marina of the island. Favorable reviews from others and a good location fueled our decision. It didn't disappoint with good service and food. Nearly empty on a Thursday night and we chose to sit inside along the window as it was blazing hot outside and we needed a/c after being outside all day. We had the steak and lobster combo entrée. Although the seafood was a little dry it was still enjoyable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Vacation spotLoveditDined on 5/25/2014This was a great sunset resturant in the mid to high price range.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Breakfast with a view.DominicSDined on 5/10/2014Bistro 245 was a wonderful experience. My mother and I had breakfast there the day before Mother's Day and we could not have had a better meal. The service was excellent and the food was delicious! We sat inside and our view was absolutely gorgeous. I would highly recommend Bistro 245 to my family and friends for any meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great place.SuzyqVIPDined on 5/9/2014We always take our company there as the food is good, the scenery is great and they get a great lay west experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great sunset diningTomkVIPDined on 4/28/2014Dinner was excellent. It's a great location for people watching and of course beautiful sunsets.Special Features:
- All about the sunsetOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 4/16/2014Great views but just ok otherwise.Special Features:
- Nice view, but overpricedOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 3/30/2014Nice view of the water, but it was masked by an obnoxious wedding party with extremely loud music. Food was average and very overpriced. Service was poor. They got attitude with us because we wanted a different table. Hostess was cranky, did not really greet us at all. Not impressed. Won't be going back.Special Features:
- Wonderful ExperienceDocCVIPDined on 3/26/2014The view sitting outside looking at the Gulf of Mexico was beautiful. The service and lunch were outstanding. It was an ideal lunch experience. The only problem was locating the restaurant for tourists who are not familiar with the area because the address is a little misleading for it's on a pier not exactly on Front Street.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing sunset view and food!Beachbum0321Dined on 3/21/2014We picked Bistro 245 based on other reviews and we're NOT disappointed! Everything was amazing, down to the honey and tangerine infused butter! We shared the Seafood Cocktail for an appetizer, followed by the Mahi and Shrimp and Lobster pasta dish. Both were incredible! The view of the sunset and street performers only made our experience better. And our server Karl was fantastic!! Ask for him. We will be back on our next trip to KW!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sunset ParadiseLeann1022Dined on 3/15/2014The perfect place to eat dinner while watching the sun set. Make reservations ahead of time and make sure to ask for a table outside where you can watch the sun set. If you have an opportunity to sit on the upper deck, take it. Tourists often crowd the boardwalk area to get pictures and they may compromise the view.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Went on a Thursday night,LBfoodieDined on 3/13/2014Went on a Thursday night, the restaurant was not crowded at all. Food was delicious and our waiter Karl was the best! The restaurant is also situated right by the water, so the view is very nice. Recommend for sure!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- This was a great brunch butOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 3/9/2014This was a great brunch but the recent price increase is too much. Last years price is still published in the playbill for the Water Front Playhouse. 15% increase is too much.
- Nice PlaceReggieVIPDined on 3/7/2014We stopped by for a late lunch. Had a few cocktails and the French Onion Soup, Tuna Ahi Salad and the crab appetizer. Followed off with some pinot grigo, everything was wonderful. Abundant sunshine, let's face it, this place is all about the fabulous water view. The excellent wait service was outstanding!Special Features:
- Amazing locationOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 3/4/2014Of all the places we ate in key west this by far had the best location. Water, sunset, entertainment, and a cleaner scene than the typical key west Duval (which I love too). This place was just much more refined and elegant. Our server Edyta was amazing. We arrived a little later than we expected to the westin and we were tired and didn't want to venture far for dinner (we have a 2 month old) and we were very disappointed that we couldn't get into Latitudes. So we ended up at the bistro. I couldn't of been happier. The fish was amazing, could of had a touch more salt, and the conch, and the shrimp, and the keylime martini... I can go on and on. But Edyta was the cherry on top. So sweet, on top of everything but not pushy at all.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- SunsetScenicDined on 3/2/2014Loved the sunset view, the food, the ambiance! Everything was great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bistro 245 Rocks!GoodEatin2UDined on 2/20/2014We had an awesome breakfast... Food was great, service was great, and the view from our outdoor dining seats was perfect! And because I had cashed in some points via Recyclebank, our bill was taken care of which made the overall experience even better!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- nice outdoor dining for the sunsetgeorgePDined on 2/14/2014We ate at Bistro 245 twice last week. The location facing the ocean sunset is excellent. The seafood entrees and the gaspacho soup are superior. The waiter was very friendly and efficient.Special Features:
- The Sunday brunch is the bestOpenTable Diner Since 2003Dined on 2/2/2014The Sunday brunch is the best deal in town - go for it! And for what you get, it's a reasonable price.Special Features:
- Breakfast @ Bistro 245JulieDined on 2/2/2014We had made a reservation but ended up arriving 1/2 hour early and was seated immediately. Outdoor seating with a beautiful view of the gulf . The salmon benedict was delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- EXCELLENT FRESH FOODFERGYDined on 1/19/2014THE FOOD WAS AMAZING. FRESH, EXCELLENT CHOICES, NOT CARB LOAD. GREAT IF YOU LOVE FRESH FISH.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Champagne BrunchmarieDined on 1/12/2014The Bistro restaurant was a great choice to celebrate my mother's 88th birthday. Great selection of food and good environment .Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- nice meal in great locationcev24Dined on 12/30/2013Restaurant sits right overlooking water in key west, sit outside for great views as long as a cruise ship not parked at the dock in front. We chose to sit inside as it was muggy and the sun had already set, plus I dislike eating an expensive meal on a patio with passers by looking over my shoulder.(personal preference). It was a good choice as inside was quiet for a romantic dinner. Food was excellent, imaginative albeit a bit expensive.....very common in Key West these days. But a good choice for a special occasion. Fish fresh and well prepared.Service excellent, unobtrusive but helpful and efficient, thanks Alex!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best meal in key westSharonraeiiDined on 12/30/2013Tuna salad & grouper sandwich. We shared each other's. Sitting on Mallory square between docked cruise she and watching the cat man set up. This was the best bang for our buck, so to speak. I would suggest moving to the upper bar area, just to see the sunset.Special Features:
- Outdoors, but...MangopopVIPDined on 12/9/2013The tables were outside with a short fence, on the waterfront. a steel drum player was just ending as we arrived. A band several hundred yards down the waterfront cranked out some mildly annoying noise. Waiter was great, good suggestions, attentive without being intrusive. Food was very good. Not much ambiance, just outdoors seating.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- very goodIluvwineVIPDined on 12/4/2013Was wonderful food a little salty but most resturants are we go to key west every year and stay at westin never been disappointed will continue to go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great view to watch Key West go by.Dine4FunVIPDined on 11/23/2013Location is very good for sunset as well as to see the activity along the water in Key West. Food is good, no real standouts but tasty enough. Service was attentive. Nice spot to dine when on vacation, particularly sitting outside.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Below AveragekatieVIPDined on 9/7/2013While on vacation we went for lunch. We expected a great meal given the reviews online. However, the food was barely edible. I've had much better sandwiches at deli's let alone restaurants and for a much more reasonable price. We also ordered a grilled pineapple salad which ended up being very bitter arugula, onions, and 4 small pieces of pineapple. The restaurant also smelled of bleach. We will not be going back.
- Okay - not greatDahliaDooDined on 9/2/2013Our service was fabulous. The manager was attentive. The food was just okay. Menu is a bit limited with maybe too many fish entrees and not enough other choices.Special Features:
- great experiencecatrig77Dined on 8/27/2013everything was fabulous. Drinks were a little skimpy and expensive but otherwise a fine dine.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

The heat is on in the Heartland and it's not stopping anytime soon, but neither is the customer demand for water.
The city of Council Bluffs issued a peak water alert Tuesday because of the excessive temperatures and want customers to do their part.
The city wants customers and businesses to voluntarily stop watering their lawns between the hours of 10am and 5pm. They also are alerting people to use less water. If your house ends with an odd number, they want you to only water on odd number days and vice versa.>
The city says it's all in attempt to raise customer awareness that the demand for water is higher than ever before.
Terry Nation lives in Council Bluffs and says the voluntary water restriction is a good thing.
"In my neighborhood where I live we do water, but we've cut back on our watering, instead of everyday we do it about every two days."
Nation says since it's so hot, he's more worried about keeping the trees in tip-top shape then the grass in his yard.
"I know a lot of people spend a lot of money on their yards, but they'll come back, in the fall they'll be pretty again."
The heat is also causing other environmental issues.
On Tuesday, the Douglas County Health Department issued an "Air Quality Alert Day".
The amount ozone in the air has increased recently due to chemicals in the air mixing with heat and creating smog. The Health Department advises people with respiratory problems, the elderly, and pregnant women to avoid being outdoors for prolonged periods of time.

Rangers-Nationals Preview
Texas Rangers at Washington Nationals
- The Rangers and Nationals will meet today for just the 10th time ever, with three of those games coming when the Nationals were still known as the Expos. Since 2005, Washington is 46-36 (.561) at home in interleague play, the third best home record in interleague games in the National League since then.
- With their victory yesterday against the Twins, the Rangers are now 6-2 on their current 11-game road trip, and are batting .368 with runners in scoring position during the first eight games of the trip.
- After batting .143 entering Wednesday's game against the Marlins, Nate McLouth went 4-for-4 with three singles and a double. It was McLouth's fourth career four-hit game, but just his second multi-hit game of the season.
- In his career against the Nationals/Expos, Adrian Beltre has hit .359 and slugged .608 with 11 home runs and 33 RBI. Beltre has recorded at least one hit in 20 of his last 21 games against the Nationals/Expos.
- In nine career starts in interleague play, Stephen Strasburg is 5-3 (.625) with a 2.65 ERA and has struck out 12.75 batters per nine innings, the highest rate among active pitchers with at least nine interleague starts.
- Colby Lewis is 3-0 with a 2.86 ERA in four road starts this season, compared to 1-3 with a 7.52 ERA in four home starts this season. Since the 2010 season, Lewis has a 3.61 ERA on the road compared to a 4.51 ERA at home.

By JUSTIN EINHORN
(AP) -- As much attention as Yu Darvish generally receives just for his brilliance on the mound, he'll likely get more than usual from the Texas Rangers dugout Sunday.
The Texas ace had his last scheduled start skipped due to a stiff neck, a problem which also delayed his season debut, but says he's pain-free going into a road matchup with a Washington Nationals lineup which has come alive.
Darvish (4-2, 2.35 ERA) was supposed to face Minnesota on Tuesday but was scratched after waking up with neck stiffness. An MRI the following day revealed no damage, and it appeared after a side session Friday that he was fully recovered.
"He looked really good," pitching coach Mike Maddux told the Rangers' official website.
Darvish didn't pitch for three weeks in spring training because of a stiff neck and opened the season on the disabled list, pushing back his first start to April 6. He said after Friday's bullpen session that there are no lingering problems.
"I had no discomfort whatsoever," Darvish said through a translator. "It is what it is, that something like this would happen. What I have to do is take better care of it."
He last pitched May 22, beating Detroit in a 9-2 victory. Darvish lasted at least seven innings for the third consecutive start - he was the only Rangers pitcher to do so in May - and manager Ron Washington doesn't plan to hold him back Sunday.
"When Yu Darvish takes the mound, I believe he will be out there for a long time," Washington said.
Darvish has never faced the Nationals, who have outscored Texas (28-28) by a 19-4 margin to win the first two of this three-game set.
Washington (27-27) had four homers in Saturday's 10-2 victory and finished with 12 hits after having 15 in each of the previous two games. That three-game span follows a six-game stretch in which the Nationals hit .195 and totaled 14 runs.
Anthony Rendon had his first multihit game in three weeks Friday, then tied a career high with four hits Saturday, including a homer. Adam LaRoche contributed a three-run shot, and he's hit .333 with two homers and six RBIs in five games since coming off the disabled list.
Jayson Werth has hit .391 in that same span, while Denard Span is batting .370 in his last 10. Span is the only Nationals regular to have faced Darvish, going 3 for 4 with two doubles.
The right-hander is 4-1 with a 1.83 ERA in six interleague starts.
"True aces have really good pitches, and Darvish is one of the best at it," manager Matt Williams told the Nationals' official website. "(He has) a number of different pitches moving in a number of different ways and a 97-mph fastball when he wants it. But we are in control at the plate as soon as he releases it."
Washington counters with Tanner Roark (3-3, 3.47), who has a 2.45 ERA in his last four starts while holding opponents to a .183 average. He gave up three runs in seven innings of a 3-2 defeat to Miami on Monday.
That marked his second straight loss at Nationals Park, where he had been 5-0. Roark has a 1.19 ERA in 12 career games there and has yielded one run in 19 innings of interleague play.
Roark faces a Rangers offense which has gone six games without a homer and been held to 13 hits in this series, with Alex Rios going 0 for 6 after entering on a 12-game hitting streak.
Texas is closing an 11-game trip looking to avoid suffering a three-game road sweep for the first time since July 26-28 at Cleveland.

Reviews for Everybody Loves You Now LyricsPerformed by Billy Joel
Add Your New Review About The Song
Everybody Loves You Now | Reviewer: Aaron | 3/4/13
With Guido on this one. If you listen to all of the songs on Cold Spring Harbor, you realize the narrator is telling one story about a relationship that was not meant to be, and how he deals with the aftermath. The songs emulate the different stages of grief, with this one in the anger phase. This song really resonates for me because of my unrequitted love of a girl who had no interest in me during college in 1980.
Be careful what you wish for: | Reviewer: Cutting Room Floor | 9/13/12
Of the two reviews I've seen on this site, I'm more inclined to agree with Miranda. To an extent, it is an illustration how far a person can come in their struggle to be famous and I agree that Billy Joel was making reference to himself. I also think this song is a cautionary message. Fame has an odd way of being very isolating. "This is what you wanted, ain't you proud?" is thus intended to be ironic.
Everybody Loves You Now | Reviewer: guido | 10/3/10
I beg to differ with you Miranda. The singer in this song is flashing a big middle finger at a woman who dumped him. She is beautiful, popular and has no problem attracting men- but she is selfish and only out for herself. Despite the fact that she has become soured in his own mind, he grudgingly admits that he still is attracted to her. (Perhaps he is still attracted to an idealistic feeling of the kind of woman he thought she was.) At any rate, he knows that what goes around comes around and eventually she will cosmically be rewarded for the way she treated him.
Everbody love's u now | Reviewer: miranda | 7/8/09
This song shows how a person has come a long way in their struggle to become famous. I would even go so far as to say that Billy Joel is talking about himself in this song; how hes a big shot now and everyone loves and respects him. Personaly i love this song; especially the beat and rithem at the start, something tells me that this would really be a crowd pleaser at a live concert and im sure it has been.

Colbie Caillat Attacked by Bugs
Colbie Caillat is a testament to that old saying, "The show must go on," even though it almost didn't.
While she was singing her hit, "Bubbly," in Pittsburgh Tuesday night, Caillat was attacked by bugs.
During the onslaught, the "Lucky" singer squealed in fear, "I'm so sorry, but this is really scary. I don't know if I can keep singing."
She then laughingly asked her audience, "Can I go, please?" But, trooper that she is, she kept performing.
Caillat later posted on her Facebook page, "Oh my goodness. I am traumatized from the bazillion bugs that were literally raining on me from the sky while singing on stage…!!"
Below, you can see the attack, caught on video, at around the 2:20 mark.
Via Facebook
Got Something to Add?
phew that was funnnay! But she handled it really well..funny part is when Gavin and Andy hit the stage..the bugs vanished lol
She's professional~~ cool
I need a big Martha Wainwright fix. Now. Somebody.

Using curry powder gives potential health benefits (when turmeric is combined with black pepper, it becomes an amazing anti-inflammatory agent). Mango chutney sweetens this deliciously spicy lunch option.

I purchased a vehicle from JD Byrider in July of 2007 and was told at that time that if I made all of my payments on time that Russ Darrow their co-company would gaurantee me financing into a brand new vehicle.I had all my payments directly withdrawn never was late or missed a payment in over a year.
I went back after my year was up and they told me that I could not trade in my vehicle until I paid off almost the full balance. I paid $11,000 for vehicle that isn't worth half of that.
I wish there was some way I could get out from under the horrible debt.c23fa44

They didn't inform me of the price of a 2003 chrysler pt cruiser until we were signing papers being priced at $10,500 with interest bringing it to $15,000. The cars value in excellent condition would be $3,800, and this car has some rust, cosmetic paint damage and was missing minor components. I returned it in less than a week after doing my own research, thankfully after heated discuss with the "owner" of the site he released me from the contract. Apparently the additional $8,000 was for their warranty which covered a reasonable amount but price was to pay it should cover anything and everything for free.0 0 Reply

My wife and I had no choice but to go here. Where else can one have *** credit and drive off in a car for a couple hundo! Yes, they prey on less fortunate people,yes the cars and business itself are shifty. I honestly believe my car was a flood case . The contract was long and videotaped while we read and signed. Yes they suck but they helped when NO OTHER would. Be cautious but if you are in a bind they can help.0 1 Reply

It is a well known fact that "buy here, pay here" lots sell vehicles for double true value. This is common sense. If you worry about blue book value after purchase it's too late!! These are things you look into BEFORE purchasing. A sales person is there to do just that....sell an item. If you believe everything they tell you then they did their job. It's your duty as a consumer to research: this means actually reading into what your getting yourself into. You can be mad at the sales lot or the finance company all you want, but at the end of the day it was you who decided you wanted what they were selling.1 2 Reply

I would like to state that I have a car with them - they financed me when no one else would -- but I was told multiple times and signed 2 papers stating CNAC does NOT allow late payments they warn you during the signing that it is best to pay at least one extra payment just in case you run into issues with cash - so stop complaining and look through your papers you signed it o_O and nope I dont work for them or know anyone who does just common sense1 0 Reply

I've dealt with buy here pay here companies that are nicer than jdbyrider. I purchased an 04 Dodge Stratus and I've been paying on it for 2 years. Never missed a payment, until some company garnished my check. I notified jdbyrider and asked for a two week extension. They told me to send in proof that my check was garnished and proof that I was fighting it in court. I did all of that and they told me to either make the $173 payment or turn the vehicle in by COB that day. I will never buy a piece of bubble gum if it's called cnac or jdbyrider. They know that they have you because of your credit situation. I will never buy anything else from them.3 0 Reply

I. Got a car from jd byrider was told at the time I got it by the sales man he job it to rebuild credit not sell cars and if I ever needed to bring it back it would not affect me or my credit in a bad way. Two years later I never late of missed a payment I lost my Job an could my afford to keep it. Well the sakes man was full of *** . I swallowed my pride and went to return it car and was told i am a lier that would have never been said and was told it would count as a repo and would still have to pay the balance on the car. Well I still have it every time something goes wrong with it I have to fight to get it worked on I am paying 19,000 $ for a car only booked for 6,500 . Should be against the law1 1 Reply

Bought a car last year from JD Byrider and was ALSO told that if I made the payments on time for 1 year that I could trade it in for something newer. WELL when I asked, I was told that you had to owe less than $1500.00 on the car before they would do a trade. I realize they work with those of us who are rebuilding our credit, but paying twice the blue book price for a used car and then being lied to about the trade ins etc... so we are all stuck with vehicles that we are upsoide down in on trade ins with another dealership...1 0 Reply

I bought my car back in 2008 when I left the Lot my air conditioner stopped working. A week after they fixed it my stater and transmission went out. I paid over 12,000 for 2003 Ford, Taurus. Not only that I had to come out of pocket for any work. Cause they had. Closed the dealers down in.Arizona. these people at the bank kept reporting mme to the credit bureau and I was never late. These people needs to be investigated. Don't never ever buy a car from them. You will be better off and Drive Time. Which is Also bad.1 0 Reply

My husband purchased a car from JDByrider. It had 74,000 miles on it! As soon as he drove it home 2 miles (like less than 10 minutes after signing papers) the rear wiper would not shut off. JDByrider said not responsible! The air quit, wheel bearings need replaced, dash board has huge crack, no paint on hood, and we had to replace the timing belt!
On the loans, the purchaser MUST PAY EVERY SINGLE PENNY of INTEREST BEFORE PAYING A SINGLE PENNY ON PRINCIPAL! I even wonder if that is even entirely legal?
My husband's PT Crusier is only worth 2500 and he had to purchase the car for 11,900. Is that even legal? Did you also know if the purchaser is even one day late on licensing the vehicle JDByrider will pick up the vehicle even if all payments are perfect.
JDByrider also keeps a key to your vehicle for WHEN they repo it.
As far as truth in advertising cars are NOT reconditioned. With all the problems my husband's car had all JDByrider did was repalce with a battery that was too small for the car before he purchased the vehicle. Warranty does not cover electrical system. Warranty also does not cover the heater! When I asked about this salesperson said a heater was a LUXURY. Is not freezing to death a luxury? Or is being able to see out the windshield and use a defroster a luxury?

I bought a pontiac grand prix back in September, have always made my payments on time. I got laid off work am now on unemployment between the time of waiting on my unemployment my parents help make a few payments since I pay twice a month. Well, I called today and asked if I could pay my payment on Monday rather than this friday so they are only waiting 48 hours I even offered my cc number to them to run 1st thing Monday. They told me they were unable to do that and I needed to find someone who could possibly help me out. I am furious because I have been patient with the waiting everytime I need to take my car in 1st time my key kept getting locked in the ignition and I would have to leave in there and hope no one stole my car had to wait a month in half for an appt to have it fixed. And last month my air conditioning went out and my appt is not till July I am also 8 months pregnant and have a 6 year and have to wait this long to have my air fixed. So, I don't care at this point anymore they are getting their payment on Monday!! I have been nice and a great customer but I have had it with this place!!0 0 Reply

1 dead, 2 children seriously hurt in Suwannee Co. crash
A 33-year-old woman is dead and two children were seriously hurt in a crash that happened in Suwannee County, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
The incident happened after 1:30 p.m. Sunday at CR-137 and 192nd Street.
Heather Raulerson, 33, was traveling southbound on CR-137 in a 2000 Ford F-250, troopers said.
Raulerson entered a lefthand curve and partially drove onto the southbound shoulder with right-side tires.
Troopers said Raulerson then overcorrected, steering right and the F-250 began rotating clockwise.
As the F-250 re-entered the northbound lane, troopers said the truck overturned, ejecting Raulerson from the truck.
Raulerson was pronounced dead at the scene.
Troopers said Devin Raulerson, 13, and Shelby Raulerson, 12, were both taken to Shands at UF Gainesville with serious injuries.
According to the FHP, Heather, Devin and Shelby Raulerson were both not wearing seat belts at the time of the crash.
