Running backs in the 2012 draft have been very difficult to project so far. I think as training camp gets into full swing, I'll have a better idea on which RB will be the main guy and which RB tandem will be an effective running back by committee (RBBC).  Fantasy owners this year, even more than in the past, have to focus on grabbing a RB that has sole possession of that position. With the WR position being so deep,  you MUST get yourself a RB that you can count on each and every week. That being said, we do not endorse reaching for a RB in the early rounds just to for the sake of it.
Here are a few RBs I'll be targeting in this year's draft. You may notice a few somewhat controversial names, but stay with me, we'll explain why these guys will make you look tremendously smart.
Chris Johnson – Tennessee Titans : Some will point out that over the last three seasons CJ2K has seen a decrease in the numbers of yards rushing and TD total. What I see is a decrease in the number of carries, which for me, points out the fact that CJ2K will enter the 2012 season, fresh. I love the story, I love the fact that some people are forgetting about him and writing him off and I love the fact that he's pissed because he's been underutilized.
If the Titans can settle on a QB during training camp, this will only help the situation. For CJ2K's sake I hope it's Jake Locker who has the mobility, arm strength and the ability to have touch on the ball when he checks down. If everything is true coming out of Titans' training camp, look for a tremendous increase in CJ2K's numbers. My Projection : 1,200+ YDS, 10 TD, 60 REC 2 TD
DeMarco Murray – Dallas Cowboys : If I were the Dallas Cowboys I'd look at this one magical number: every time DeMarco Murray carried the ball 20+ times (WK 7, 9-12) you won the game. Hopefully with the Ginger out as OC (Bill Callahan is now running the offense) they won't abandon the run when they get down in the game.
Once again the big concern going into the 2012 season will be Murray's health. This is probably not the first time you're hearing this, since it dates back to his playing days at Oklahoma State, but it's something you need to mark on your cheat sheet. His skill set is Top 10 for both PPR and Non-PPR leagues, which puts him at the end of the first round/beginning of the second. My Projection : 1,100+ YDS, 8 TD, 30 REC 1 TD
Doug Martin – Tampa Bay Buccaneers : It's amazing to read and hear some of the comments on Doug Martin. I've heard him compared to a poor-man's Ray Rice because of his ability to catch the ball out of the backfield. Some have said that Martin reminds them of a young CJ2K because of his ability to elude tacklers. My take is that he's a kid out of Boise State that will be against LaGarrett Blount and that's all the matters to me, right now.
If Martin wins the job out of camp he has the ability to be a nice RB2 for your fantasy team. He'll catch the ball out of the backfield and should average 70-80 yds per game. My main concern will be what the Bucs have in store for Blount once they get inside the red zone.  Blount probably gets those carries, but as of this writing that has not been announced, giving me hope. Martin is going 50 in ADP currently, which is a perfect spot for him. I think if he's taken in the fourth RD that is a bit of a reach. My Projection : 1,000+ YDS, 6 TD, 40 REC 1 TD
Michael Turner – Atlanta Falcons – Have you heard this before, "Michael Turner is done.†Or maybe this, "Turner's entering his ninth season and last year had over 300 carries, avoid at all cost.†Dumb! Just dumb. Even with talk from the Falcons coaching staff that his carries will be reduced, Turner is still worthy of a low-end RB1 or an awesome RB2 for your team. Why? Well, because he's reliable and still has the ability to get you double-digit TD.
The one knock on Turner each year is his inability to catch the ball out of the backfield. No worries, you already know that, so you make up for it with your stud-RB or you select a TE that is the focus point of his team's offense. Turner will do "dirt" (for the old people reading this) get the job done, and put up decent fantasy numbers at a position starving for points. My Projection : 1,000+ YDS, 10 TD, 15 REC 1 TD
BenJarvus Green-Ellis – Cincinnati Bengals : Going a little deeper here with BenJarvus Green-Ellis, but for the first time in his career he'll be the featured back. I'm expecting him to get anywhere between 230-260 carries, similar to what Cedric Benson did for the Bengals in 2010. If he can maintain his health and pound the rock once the Bengals get inside the red zone, Benson will be an excellent RB2 for your fantasy team.
The one big concern at this point in training camp is how the Bengals will use Bernard Scott. I spoke to two Bengals officials and they each told me Scott will be the third-down back and used in long yardage plays, making Green-Ellis the featured back. That's good news for fantasy owners. Keep track of his ADP prior to your draft, because I think he'll go a little earlier than expected the closer we get to opening kick-off. My Projection : 1,000+ YDS, 8 TD, 15 REC 1 TD

This product is very easy to use. We did sweet potato and carrot, it took 15mins in total. The instructions are simple and easy to understand. It also comes with a recipe booklet, even though the recipes are simple in the booklet you can easily adapt these to your own. I did find it cheaper elsewhere and kiddicare matched the price. Maybe worth doing a quick search. Excellent delivery and service from kiddicare.
This is amazing, I really wanted to make the food for my baby but had a disaster with my old blender, and the kitchen was such a mess. My friend lent me this and it was so quick and easy, just one things to wash up and it rinses really well so can be quickly cleaned before starting something else if you want to make a few things in one go. I immediately ordered my own and use it to do a few things whilst I'm cooking anyway. Would highly recommend this to everyone, well worth the money, especially when it's on sale!
I don't know how I could manage without this great product even if i already have a food processor. It is very useful for preparing a small amount of food for my little one. It helps to prepare healthy food in only few minutes.
bought it for my 5 months old baby, just start weaning. Good quality, easy to use and clean. Great equipment, all you need to do just turn it upside down!
Really useful and simple to use. Preparing food for my 6 month old son became so much easier and quicker. Would recommend to anyone!!!

"Pretty good"
About 50% is great and fun to listen to, about 50% is full of drunk stories and too much of a dependence on 4-letter explicatives to describe things. My biggest gripe is that he is constantly telling you to buy his book throughout the recording, and leaving things out. Is this what I deserve for shelling out 15-20 dollars on this thing, criticized for not buying your book instead? Overall though, it is worth it for the high points.
"Didn't care for it"
3 stars is generous and I'm only giving it three stars because I listened about 25% and decided that I had listened to enough.
I prefer objective factual information, this book did not have enough of it to support it's points. I just felt like he took a bunch of cheap shots at conservatives the whole way through, inflating outlier events/people that he mentions as if they were an accurate representation of the entire conservative community.
I just felt like there was too much subjectivity in his criticisms, too much appeal to the emotion rather than to logic. So, I wouldn't recommend this book, had I listened to >25%, I am relatively sure that I would feel justified in going down to one star.
"A must listen"
Concise, objective, eye opening, well though out. A MUST LISTEN. Mr. Sowell brings you to a better understanding of how we have arrived at a lot of erroneous conclusions in this country and different policies that are ineffective and make no sense. Sound boring? It isn't. Very well narrated.
"Listen to it over and over"
I've listened to this book several times. The stories are fascinating, and I love how he writes/describes them. Honestly I would have preferred that he had hired a more professional reader to read his book, as he has kind of an accent, but overall, this book is awesome, get it.
"For women"
I see that this book was written by a woman, but other than that, I didn't really see any indication that it was aimed at women. Maybe I just didn't look hard enough, or maybe it wasn't made clear enough in the description, either way I'm not pleased that I spent money on this thing. The time I spent listening to it, I didn't really care for the author's voice who decided to read her book either. Wouldn't recommend this book, especially for men.
"What a well written book"
The narrator is absolutely fantastic. I gave it 4 stars overall, because the book is so long-winded and takes so many tangents that it is difficult to keep track of what is being discussed, it does not always hold your attention. I have tried reading it twice, without success, so listening to it was definitely the best way. I recommend this book, there are a lot of laugh out loud moments, a lot of "wow that was deep and introspective" moments, and the main character Tom Jones is a very admirable hero overall. Check it out!
"Very interesting and fun to listen to."
Fascinating, I love hearing about the Mongols and how they overcame the world! It is like Darwin said, it is not the strongest that survives but that most adaptable to change. The Mongols were such a threat on the battlefield because they were the most mobile and adaptable to change.
Have not read the print version.
Different characters being voiced differently by the different voice actors.
Long, drawn out, very little happens in the book that is of any interest, this book is similar to a pop song that you hear on the radio that a lot of people love but really isn't anything interesting.
"A difficult listen, but engrossing"
This book is about 80% intense unavoidable suffering/humiliation of the protagonist and 20% of the protagonist overcoming his hardships. It did keep me entertained on a 14 hour drive and it is thought provoking as far as "why do some human beings derive pleasure in the helpless torture of others".
The most frustrating part of this book for me was that it is just some narrator telling about what is happening, very little of the book is composed of the protagonist's actual words about what happened/what was happening. I would have preferred to hear how he dealt with everything in his own words, like in the book "Papillon", because that way, you also learn about how people overcome adversity rather than just never ending narrative about them being abused mentally and physically.

In addition to utility auditing, we also specialize in energy procurement for commercial electricity and gas, utility bill approval services, and tax accounting support. We go to bat on your behalf when we reveal discrepancies at the utility level, or find that you could be paying more competitive rates based on our insights into the deregulated market.

"Not every business can benefit from Power Factor Correction (PFC). We only recommend Power Factor for businesses whose businesses typical electrical loads include elevators, heavy equipment, air-conditioning systems, or a large amount of electronic office equipment. Because of the nonlinear character of these loads they create a significant amount of reactive power. Rapidly fluctuating loads require real-time reaction. Such electrical loads do not operate continuously, but rather in irregular intervals. The best PFC systems are able to switch within a few milliseconds. The electronic switches operate silently and are non-wearing, conserve the capacitors and, ultimately, electricity. What does all this mean to you? It means that PFC could save you a lot of money on your monthly electricity bill.

text: We already dished on Anna Paquin's 50-carat Neil Lane diamond necklace she wore for her weekend nuptials to Stephen Moyer and now we've got the scoop on the couple's wedding bands. The True Blood stars asked long-time friend and jeweler, Cathy Waterman, to custom-design the platinum bands, using Paquin's rough-cut antique diamond engagement ring by the designer as inspiration. "I have been friends with Stephen forever. Watching him fall in love with Anna was magical. He lights up around her…and she glows when he is around," Waterman told us exclusively. "He put such thought and care into the ring that he proposed with…hours looking into stones, looking for the reflection that said 'Anna.' And he nailed it. I handmade their wedding bands, and seeing them as they walked down the aisle—I knew they were just right." The couple showed off their new rings in L.A. on Monday.

I'm absolutely loving the MOTUC Ram Man!
I shortened one of mine to make him a little more FILMation accurate.
I do have another at the standard height, but I think he absolutely ROCKS in this dwarfish height. Still wish the head sculpt had opened eyes. To me the eyes can definitely make or break a figure, and honestly it's the only downside to this figure.
He's a 9.8 in my book!

I would say MOTUC version. even tho im trying to keep the one I have now MOC.
Classics by far! I always liked the character but the 80s toy wasn't very good and the 200X was still annoying having a big molded lump of plastic for legs that were lose too. Only thing I don't like are his eyes looking closed.

I love all eras of MOTU, and while I greatly prefer the 200x designs of some characters (Evil Lyn, King Hsss, Buzz Off) and the unique details of other 200x versions (Hordak, Clawful,) if we're talking toys the classic versions win 99% of the time due to their scale and articulation. It's that simple.
I'm still not a huge fan of Ram Man's squinty face, but the rest of the design is perfect. Classics is the best Ram Man ever to date.
I understand why people might not like the squinty eyes, but I actually love 'em. I think the new MOTUC version is aces from head to toe.
I like the little horned head fatty Ram Man there
Classics Ram Man for me. He is the version I have wanted for years. I really am not a fan of 200x designs, period. Too much 'stuff' on them making them look generic as hell...like some 6th graders designed them. I prefer clean and simple designs of Filmation and the comics.
MOTUC version, the face is awesome, love the cardback illustration...
Classics all the way..its what i wanted the vintage to to be as a child.!! LOVE HIM!
Man lives in the sunlit world of what he believes to be reality.
But...there is, unseen by most, an underworld, a place that is just as real,
but not as brightly lit... a DARKSIDE.
Classics version all the way for me too. Rammy never did a lot for me, but this classics version has entirely changed my mind on him.
I'm sure I'm in the minority, but not only do I love the squinty eyes, I *love* the alternate head - perhaps even more than the helmeted one (even if the lack of neck is a bit dodgy).
Kittens are delicious!
Without a doubt--Motuc Ram-Man When I put him on the shelf last night he made things look more complete. Mot sure why ppl
think he's too short--I think he was the perfect combination of vintage and 200x and his height and size look great next to everyone else Definitely in the top 5 of my favorite Motuc figures so far
MOTUC all the way!!!
CLASSICS RAM MAN, 200X was a beautifully designed figure. But other than and between the characterization of him in media after the minis; being a chubby massive oafy-type character, I wasn't too happy. I always wanted the powerful and aggressive one from the mini comics... AND THIS IS IT!!!
'Tis the wind and nothing more.....
It is spelled "Crita", not "Critta". Misspell her name and Crita will knock the "T" out of you!
Also...get her into the line!
Awesome "Yes Movement" avatar by The All American!
Yay, I forgot about these comparison posts. Yeah, I gotta go with MotUC version. I love the original for being a little battering ram, and I guess the new one can't do the same as the vintage...but he can sure do WAY more damage if you throw him!

Joseephus! I'm so glad to see the return of hese threads!
MOTUC is definately the Winner here. (In my humble opinion.)
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti

Dave Whelan: Fear of alienating Liverpool fans stopped me buying Manchester United
Wigan owner Dave Whelan has revealed he was just weeks away from buying Manchester Utd in 1989, before backing down for fear of alienating Liverpool supporters.
In an interview with ITV's Gabriel Clarke ahead of Saturday's FA Cup Final, the 76-year-old says he regrets not having bought the Red Devils, who eventually floated on the stock exchange.
"The deal was virtually agreed, I was going to make Bob Charlton the chairman of the club," Whelan said. "We had everything fixed on what I was going to do."
"When I came home I said to my wife that I'd just done a deal to buy Manchester Utd.
"And she said: 'Do you think people from Liverpool who shop at JJB would buy product from JJB if you owned Manchester Utd?'
"And it made me think."
"I had great ideas and I'm sorry I didn't put them into action," Whelan added ruefully. "It was a very, very big missed chance."

A big question which most of the brands ask (still): Why should we invest in Social Media Marketing ? And, very traditional answers of the same by marketers kill majority of the opportunities instantly.
Social media has changed the way we experience news, education, relationships, purchasing products, get aware of brands which we never heard of, get updates from your favorite brand etc. It's also one of the fastest-growing industries nowadays.
Few days back we presented a report of what are the do's and dont's of social media marketing(Facebook). We also highlighted few startling facts and stats about Social Media networks to understand the bandwidth, reach and effectiveness of each network. Today we have come up with few ideas why brands have to invest in social marketing, below are the reasons why brands should invest in social media marketing,
Social Media Marketing: A Different Approach
since decades we have followed same methods of marketing and social marketing is a different approach than the usual one. Social marketing is also cheaper compared to majority of off-line marketing campaigns – like ads through newspapers, magazines, flyers, brouchers etc. 83% of marketers strongly agreed that social media plays an important role in their business while, 54% of small business owners see more opportunity in using social media to help their business.
- social media has come up with effective tools to reach out consumers on multiple platforms:
Social media companies are focused to launch more and more interactive apps and social media marketing tools can ease the job of multi-network marketers. Utilization of such tools definitely is a smart way to reach out more consumers on multiple platforms.
- Increases Search results and increase traffic to the brand's website:
Brand's message/updates can reached to new and targeted audience. Social marketing allows users to search for your brands effectively and consistently. Its also noticed that 80%of users like to connect to brands on this social media channels. 40% of Twitter users search for brands and 60% of Facebook users share information of a particular product.
- The marketing campaigns can be measured easily and with minimal cost:
86% of firms rely on social media metrics such Likes and followers to measure their social media ROI. Its also seen that social commerce market will escalate to $30 billion by 2015.
- Social media marketing strengthens relationship with customers:
Brands can have a better idea about their customers and also they can target their posts to certain group of customers. Those looking for better way to target posts, Facebook had updated a service last year which allows brands to target promoted posts by country. One can actually control their targeting by only reaching people, who are most relevant to see these posts in their news feed. Its noted that a good social media engagement can also increase the spending up to 40%.
- Boosts brand awareness:
Social marketing builds in a social community especially if your brand is still in a budding stage and users get aware about your brand and products available. Its true that, 87% of the users choose to increase their brand awareness.
- Share information and receive consumer opinions:
It establishes interactive relationship with customers, this is the best way to gain instant feedback on services, products and more from your target market. Its also import for brands to realize that, what works for one industry may not work for another. Best ways to maximize the reach of your social media posts is to understand the best day and time to share content.

The report from the Economic Policy Institute finds that the wage gap between tipped and non-tipped workers is the highest it's ever been.
A new report says that the federal government is the largest funder of low-wage jobs for working women and people of color, and that President Obama should take executive action to help lift them into the middle class.
Women should be free to choose their childbirth experience, whether it be in a hospital or in the woods. But I fear that Born in the Wild will be a disingenuous attempt to suggest that modern medicine ruined childbirth.
The exact cause of her death, which, according to the Associated Press, occurred "hours after she surrendered to serve a 48-hour sentence," is unclear.
California's Maximum Family Grant rule denies financial support to babies born while their families are receiving grants from the state's welfare program. An effort is underway to repeal the rule and to deconstruct the narrative that poor women have babies for money.
The federal poverty guidelines, which dictate eligibility of most public benefits, including food stamps, is flawed in that it does not account for variances in cost of living.
Conservatives have been turning up the volume on the irrational, unevidenced claim that poverty is caused by not being married. In reality, poverty is caused by not having enough money. This should be obvious, but it clearly needs to be said more often.
Shame is a powerful cultural and political tool that has been used to keep people from accessing the resources they need. Shame has kept my name anonymous in this article, but it will not stop me from accessing health care, telling this story, or encouraging others to do the same.
Philadelphia's dire performance can be attributed to the collision of two major factors: widespread, profound poverty and a sharp reduction in the number of hospitals providing maternity care.
Even as a string of recent studies reveal the damaging effect of poverty on children, both Democrats and Republicans seek to cut food stamps, which have been shown to help alleviate poverty.

Current Articles
By Ricky Riner
-- At the age of 16 most kids are focused on getting their driver's licenses and spending time away from home. Though that statement might have been true when I was this age, on one particular day it could not be further from the truth.
I'd only had two or three deer harvests under my belt and none of these deer had antlers. I'd been looking forward to my next hunt with my father and grandfather for weeks.
It was opening day of the firearms season in Maryland. At this time my family had permission to hunt a large field near Poolesville, Md., in Montgomery County. Because Maryland is a zoned hunting state, which restricts the deer season regulations regarding weapons used and bag limits, we were restricted to using either shotguns or muzzleloaders. I stepped foot into the field that day with my brand new T/C Encore .50 caliber muzzleloader with a Nikon scope and loaded with 150 grains of Pyrodex and a Power Belt bullet. My father and grandfather were also using T/C Encore .50 caliber muzzleloaders.
Before daylight, my grandfather and I dropped my dad off at the top of a field then drove to the normal parking area at the bottom of the field. There was a thick stretch of woods that separated where we parked and where the field was with a small road cut through to access it.
My grandfather and I got our gear on, loaded our guns, and started down the road toward the field just as the sky started turning blue. Although it was mid-November, it was a touch colder than it had been the past couple of days. There was a light fog over the field.
As we approached the field through the fog, I made out a couple of deer shadows in the field. We slowly worked our way to the field's edge. The light started to open up a bit for us, and we could finally make out the deer. None of them appeared to have antlers.
One of the deer snorted just as I raised my gun up. Then, they all began to trot out of the field and into the woods. I followed one in my scope until it stopped. I cocked the gun and aimed just behind the deer's shoulder. I hesitated just long enough to hear my grandfather tell me to shoot it. I squeezed the trigger. The next thing I knew, the scope has knocked the hat off my head and smoke was everywhere in front of us.
Once the smoke had cleared I was disappointed because we did not see a deer lying in the field. We made our way out to where the deer had been standing. As soon as we started to round a small hill I saw the white belly of a deer. As we walked closer, I began to form a smile that felt like it went from ear to ear once the deer's antlers came into view.
The four points stuck up about 10 inches from the top of its ears. My 162-yard shot was perfect. It went in just behind the left shoulder and exited out in front of its right shoulder.
Finally, I had harvested my first buck. What better way could I have spent opening day? My grandfather was beside me, my father was in the same field and I shot the buck with my new T/C Encore, which was a Christmas present from my dad.
With hunting properties in my area disappearing into city sprawl and development, it's hard to imagine what hunting is going to be like in the future. No matter what the condition, I'll at least have good memories like this one to keep me going.

Das Racist may be based in New York, and two of the group's three members may be Queens natives, but Victor Vasquez, the other third of the trio, calls the Bay Area home. The brand-new free-download 51 is Kool A.D.'s second of the year, following The Palm Wine Drinkard, and it finds him in a very California state of mind. The tape includes collaborations with Bay Area rap-scene types like Main Attrakionz, the Coup's Boots Riley, and a whole host of young Californian producers. We've already heard early track "Tacky Tacky," and now the whole thing is up. Stream or download it at Mishka's Bandcamp page.

Fletcher), Ash Catherwood (Microwave Porn), and Jay Ferguson (Guidestones) on August 21, 7-9 pm. Focus of the event is a panel discussion on transmedia tactics and what transmedia practitioners can learn from web series best practices.
* The Streamy Awards are back after a one year hiatus and with a new management team behind the event. Submissions deadline is October 15, 2012. The Streamy Awards honour excellence in original web video programming. The live event takes place Sunday, February 17th, 2013 at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles, California.

Astarte Suites Hotel, Santorini

George became our wedding planner - he did everything and was always on the end of an email for questions. He organised flowers, wedding cake, food, decoration, my family, friends and a lot lot more. We planned the wedding blindfolded, we had never seen the Astarte Suites in person, only on the internet. The night we arrived in Santorini we were obviously nervous but we drove over to Astarte Suites. The sun was just setting and we cautiously opened the blue door into the Astarte Suites - straight away it was perfect. George greeted us and all my fears just disappeared. The place is stunning and no amount of pictures can really give you an idea of this place until you see it with your own eyes. The suites, the infinity pool, the view and the family are all spectacular.
George and his family made my wedding day what it should be - perfect. George even stepped in when the DJ we had booked cancelled at 12pm on the wedding day! and found a new one!!! Words can not fully describe the experience we had at the Astarte Suites. I have lived in the UK, New Zealand and America and visited some amazing places but nothing even comes close to the Astarte Suites. Not only do George and his family offer excellent service they also offer kindness and a passion to make everything the best it can be. We didnt get a chance to say thank you to George's mum but thank you!! We had little children at the hotel/wedding and we also stayed for two nights and they were safe and happy.
What more can I say other than if you are reading this and wanting to find the most idyllic, peaceful, beautiful place for your wedding (or even just a hotel stay) this is the place! Once again thank you to everyone at the Astarte Suites - I could not have asked for more.

The service was excellentthe owners and staff make you feel like your family. The suite was twice every day cleaned. I requested for a private jewellery show, in order to propose to my wife, and it was arranged the same day. I stayed the Honeymoon suite with the indoor Jacuzzi pool with Swarofski crystals on the roof, and the private outdoor pool. We highly recommend this hotel when visiting Santorini, and especially for Honeymooners. We hope to visit again! Definitely higher than a 5 Star Hotel! Astarte suites is truly a top notch hotel with first class service. It's unlike any hotel we've ever been to before.

Right from our arrival,the service was incredible,from the front desk to poolside.
Our rooms were constantly cleaned and well-stocked by the housekeeping staff.The pool was also great. The breakfast every morning is tasteful, you don't have to wake up early because they serve it until noon either near the pool or to your room! Our room had a fantastic view of volcano even from inside the suite. The staff is very helpful in planning any excursions around Santorini.

Top Local Tips for Santorini
Casablanca Casanlanca is a great bar at Fira capital playing soul music, and serves great coctails.
Sea side Astarte suites's general manager proposed us a fantastic restaurant at Perivolos beach. Everything was delicious.
Definitely need a vehicle to get around! Santorini is atop a moutain. The entire island is either up or down hill. Walking is possible, but not advised. Also, the only taxis we saw were in Fira, so catching a ride is not the easy. We stayed in Akrotiri. If it were not for the staff at our hotel who arranged everything for us, we would have not been able to go anywhere absent a rental. Rent a 4-wheeler to get around. They are half the price of renting a car and just as convenient. Also, the streets are extremely narrow and there doesn't seem to be many rules when it comes to the road. I think a car is more difficult to get around in because of the narrow streets and nowhere to park. If you go during the summer months, the weather is beautiful and you'll enjoy the drive up the countryside on the buggy.

Bruce Springsteen's youngest son, Sam Springsteen, 20, was recently certified as a firefighter near his home in Monmouth County, New Jersey. The youngster graduated from the Monmouth County Fire Academy earlier this month, along with 41 other new firefighters.
According to USA Today, the Boss' son will start off serving as a volunteer fireman at the Colts Neck Fire Department.
Sam put in over 188 hours of training at the fire academy, and both his father and mom Patti Scialfa attended his graduation ceremony earlier this month.
"This is not an easy course," Monmouth County Fire Marshal Henry Stryker III told the Asbury Park Press. "There's a lot of physical stuff and a lot of book work."
Sam's mom shared a photo of Sam decked out in his full gear, adding the hashtags #OurFamilyHero.

Murrells Inlet, South Carolina
After reading the reviews, I was a bit skeptical about dining at Franks but after experiencing the dining experience, I was pleased.
The person accepting my reservation was a bit rude. The phone rang several times before someone answered - I was hanging up when I heard the "hello." This person could use some telephone etiquette when accepting reservations or talking about Franks.
Reservations are best - by the time we left, the restaurant was full.
The service was good, not the best we've had but good. Our wait staff was a bit talkie but did provide some good info about the area. (We're new to Pawleys Island.)
The overall quality of the food was excellent! Price was reasonable for the quality. The steak was a bit rubbery, not the best we've had but ok.
The environment, ambiance left a bit to be desired. The tables are too close for intimate dining; the noise level overwhelming - it was difficult to hear my dining companion. We dined early but by the time we finished dining, we could hardly hear each other's comments.
Would we dine there again - yes, absolutely. We will use Franks as special occasion dining and would go early to avoid the noise level.
You'll enjoy this restaurant should you decide to go - make your own decision about price, quality, ambiance and enjoy!

The outside restaurant rocks. This place has the best atmosphere of any non-waterview fine dining establishment in the area. Very romantic. Great pizza. Don't order anything with cheese other than pizza. They'll smother it. The fillet mignon is excellent as well. Nice presentation.

Frank's is always my favorite in Pawleys. I usually sit in the bar, Lance is the bartender and gives the best service and conversation. I love their crabcakes and lambchop tapas. The tuna nachos are to die for(suggested by Lance). If the quail is on the menu(it's not vey often) you must try it...love it!

I can only say that this is the best restaurant in the area by far. People say it is expensive but it is top quality and generous portions. The prime steaks offered could have been cut with a butter knife. It is a great place!

The last review was on the money. I would not have believed it. We have been coming here for years. Currently the worst food I have ever had in myrtle beach. The grouper was fishy. Shrimp was old and uncooked. My wife ordered a pasta chicekn dish with small chunks of unknown chicken parts for 23$. Ordered a glass of wine off of the menu, it was old and bad. Hostess was rude. Talk about resting on your laurels. I would recommend going anywhere else. I will never return, not even if the meal were free..

The Outback was a delightful dinner setting and unique. Service was exceptional and food was very good. First time visitors to the Myrtle Beach area and would recommend this local restuarant to anyone looking for fine dining with great atmosphere.

Pawleys Island, South Carolina
Had a reservation for 7:30 so we were seated without a problem or any wait time. Food was great, waiter was well mannered and polite. Seating by the kitchen sucks, the reception we got was poor, the lady giving us water and clearing our plates could only say yea when we thanked he. The other waiters hanging around just talking a few feet away from us was bad. Unless you sit on the left when you first come in the restr., you will not be happy in seating. Tables to close, so if you get a pudgy waiter. waitress, or water lady, your arm or back will get knocked. Also watch out for the drunks using bad language.

On September 08 my husband took me hear for a very disappointing dinner. He had talked about it for years. I guess we hit a bad night but we aren't going back. It was mediocre at best.
A disappointed local.

Truly if you like good food then you will absolutely love this place. This place really is amazing. Their are always going to be obnoxious, idiotic people that do not enjoy good food, but if you are in the Southeast, and looking for a good place to eat that really is not very expensive for the quality and quantity of food you are receiving then you definitely should consider trying this wonderful place. Once you go you will also be astonished by some reviews that people write.

Pawleys Island, South Carolina
Avoid this restaurant. The service is terrible and the food is sub-par but they want to charge premium prices. Ever have undercooked fish or burnt steak? If so, you will like Frank's. I've been there twice just to see if the first time was a fluke but nope, it was just as bad the second time.
Never again.

WORTH THE DRIVE! Even if you are staying in Myrtle Beach if you want an excellent meal with a warm yet upscale environment then Franks is the place for you. Each time we have eaten here it has been fantastic. The wait staff is always so eager to please and friendly. The Atmosphere in the restaurant is so romantic and charming. You cant go wrong with Franks!!! A+ and just keeps getting better!

Very simple. If you have't been here, go. Lamb is the best we have ever had, ( although I liked the previous cherry sauce version better) Service is excllent, and knowledgable. The tables are set with starched linens, and everything is very classy. This is a top drawer place, with top drawer food.

We have been to many restaurants in the area and Franks by far is the best. The attention to details and service is remarkable. Our server was always there but never to much. For our first course we had crab cakes and scallops, both excellant. For our main course we had lamb and veal and again excellant. We are in the area until September and will return to Franks. Great value.

Winston-salem, North Carolina
Although we have been to many restaurants in the area, we wanted something special for our 30th anniversary. We asked for advice from many people. We decided on Franks and so glad we did. The service was outstanding and the food was unbelievable. We started with crab cake and scallops, which both were very good. For the main course, we had veal and lamb and again both were excellant. Our waiter was great - always there but never to much. We started with drinks outside at Franks Outback and the bartender was wonderful. Then we went to the inside bar where again the bartender was great. I had made reservations and was not overly happy with.the table they had selected for us for our 30th,although it was a nice area, just to close to other customers. The hostess was more than please for us to choose another table. We will be in the area for the reminder of the summer and will be returning. Even though it is expensive, it is worth the money.

We have a place in Pawleys, and since we discovered Franks two years ago while up for the week, we make a point of going back each time we are in town. Not only is the food delicious, the presentation and portions are excellent. It is also nice having a wine list that compliments to menu. We are on our way back tomorrow night!

Murrells Inlet, South Carolina
We recently visited Franks for a special occasion. We have lived in Murrells Inlet for over a year, and I was looking forward to it. When we arrived, we were greeted by a surly young woman who barely greeted us as she walked us to a table. When we asked if we could move to a different table ( it was early and the place was quiet), she kind of grunted, and walked us to a different table. The server who came by after that was a little more pleasant, but not much. We almost left after ordering drinks, but stayed on to have a few appetizers. The food was very tasty, but for a place that puts itself out there as one of the best in the area the service was awful. We would definitely not return- there are way too many other options where people are friendly and make you feel welcome.

Columbia, South Carolina
This was one of the best meals I've ever had and my fellow diner agreed! We found refuge from the sweltering July heat inside at one of the few available tables. The crab cakes were like dessert - sweet and melty and absolutely delicious! The veggies were perfect and the bread and rice did not disappoint. The ice cream and derby pie was the perfect cap to a perfect meal. Our waiter was delightful and the wine list is spectacular. I really can't say enough nice things!

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
I know everyone remembers the phrase, "You get what you pay for.!" Franks is well worth a visit or two or three or four. What can I say, we love Franks Outback. The Crab Cake they serve is so delectable my Fiance orders it as an appetizer and also as a side with his entree.We have been together 8 years and finally decided we would take the plunge. My first thought was an outback wedding and reception. Unfortunately I do not possess that kind of money, although I will still call to inquire about the possibility. Love the atmosphere the food and the service. Save your money even just for a special occasion you won't regret it.

We have been making it a point to visit Frank's while on vacation each and every year since 1987. Our son introduced this fine dining experience to us years back when he was on the waiting staff. Every day there are offerings that are simply succulant. Lynn is a magnificent hostess, and Salter and Wolfee are outstanding owner's. One can choose from two dining experiences--Inside or "Outback" under the stars. You'll find the waiting staff enjoying an evening ending beverage as they at times become your guest for their outstanding service. Bon Apetite.

We have been traveling to Myrtle Beach for 9 years and Frank's is always on our list. Excellent seafood and even a steak if you're so inclined. Enjoy an after dinner cocktail and cigar next to the fireplace in the bar. Must stop venue!

Newport Beach, California
We traveled from the West Coast. We called to make a reservation and we were looking forward to a nice dining experience upon the recommendation of a travel book. Upon arrival for our 6pm reservation we were confused by the "Frank's" & "Frank's Outback", which we were not made aware of when we booked our reservation. We requested inside seating when we made our reservation. We were seated outside and we let them know it was unacceptable and we wanted to be seated inside "Frank's" -- we were told the dining room was booked until 9pm and we could not sit in the dining room. The prices were high and the food was good but not great. The unaccommodating behavior of the staff was a very big disappointment.
