Except for the administration of the City of Las Vegas, which farms out its advertisements to the Journal North, bypassing the Tri-Weekly Optic, lots of people feel good about shopping locally and keeping the money in circulation.
I've tried to abide by that policy. A couple of times last week I was favorably impressed with local service — and remember, this comes from a man who believes it's courteous to say "please" and "thank you" and to go way beyond our job description.
Let me explain:
Last week, the Highlands University Board of Regents heard a number of requests for naming buildings and other infrastructure after local notables.
Fortunately, the Board of Regents didn't take any action on the issue. Regent Jesus Lopez asked that the university draft a policy on how to handle such requests. He suggested that the university not name any structures after living people.
The two local political parties are planning meetings for Saturday.
The San Miguel County Democratic Party will hold its convention at 2 p.m. Saturday at West Las Vegas Middle School, while the Republicans will meet at 10 a.m. at Spic and Span restaurant.
Michael Romero coaches a team that practices on a baseball field behind his shop on South Commerce Street.
But he says the kids may not be able to practice on the city-owned land for at least a week.
That's because the city dumped a lot of snow on the baseball field, which will make the field too muddy to play on for awhile, said Romero, owner of Michael's Precision Automotive. Romero said the city could have dumped the snow on other portions of the tract of city land without affecting the baseball field.
The Catholic archbishop and top New Mexico politicians asked a federal judge for leniency in sentencing longtime state Senate leader Manny Aragon.
Former Highlands University Regent John Loehr, however, urged just the opposite for Aragon, who is a former Highlands president.
A family trying to get a portion of the Tecolote Land Grant has suffered another defeat.
Last week, the U.S. Supreme Court let stand a state Supreme Court decision to dismiss the Montoya family's lawsuit against the land grant.
The family originally sought to reassign ownership of nearly 20,0000 acres of the Tecolote land grant, but state courts rejected that claim in 2007.
The city of Las Vegas has terminated a grazing lease with a high-ranking city utilities employee after the deal came under scrutiny.
For months, Frank Davis, who lives in the Gallinas area, has criticized the city's agreement to lease the land to Melvin Ortega, the city's natural gas supervisor. He questioned why a city employee got the lease, saying he and others didn't get a fair opportunity to bid on it.
West Las Vegas Head Start director Joseph Griego said he has been listening to pleas from parents on the other side of the river asking to bring classrooms closer to home.
The East and West school districts are working to do just that, he said.
"Each year I have to do a community and program assessment, which is a report on what our community and parents are telling us are their needs from Head Start," Griego said.
Lovington's Kenzie Black had a hot hand from three-point land Tuesday morning.
Fortunately for Robertson fans, so did Karlee Bradley, Kim Mares and Daniella Montoya.
Each of those RHS players hit key outside baskets to keep their team in the game early on. And late in the teams' state quarterfinal matchup, the troika of Montoya, Brooke Knezevich and Kassandra Tapia led the Lady Cards back from an eight-point deficit to a 65-55 upset of the third-seeded Lady Wildcats.
Portales is headed to the Class 3A girls' state basketball championship game after eliminating its second opponent from Las Vegas in as many days.
The Lady Rams got past Robertson 56-48 in a Thursday morning semifinal at The Pit in Albuquerque. They'll play the winner of a Pojoaque-St. Michael's semifinal in the championship game, set to tip off at 6 p.m. Friday.

Hotel staff was more than helpful! The gentleman working night shift at the desk even offered to print off directions to help me find locations. Hotel room was very clean.
No fridge or microwave in the room. The $65 pet fee was a bit much.
As a pet friendly hotel they should have a disposal area for pet waste.

The staff was excellent and worked hard to help. The a/c was fabulous, especially for someone not use to the heat and humidity that is so overwhelming in Atlanta.
The TV is on satellite/dish so occasionally there was no reception during rainstorms. Only enough towels for 1 person, not 2 people in bathroom.

Hi: 7° Lo:3°
Friday 22 August 2014 Updated: 22/08 09:17
AN INKBERROW fund-raiser who has dedicated 20 years of her life to Midlands Air Ambulance Charity has been presented with a prestigious award.
Jenny Ashman was given the Paul Harris Fellow Award by the Rotary Club of Evesham.
It is the highest honour a rotary club can bestow on to a person and is rarely given to those who are not part of a club.
But members recognised her service to the community and across the Midlands by raising over £1.6million for the charity.
Evesham Rotary Club treasurer, Martin King, said: "Evesham Rotary Club has been privileged to know Jenny for many years and she is our connection to the Midlands Air Ambulance charity.
"Two events occurred earlier this year, which led to Jenny's Fellowship – we learnt that she was named National Air Ambulance Volunteer of the Year, plus she gave a presentation earlier this year at the Rotary District Conference where we saw just how much she aligned herself of the Rotary motto – 'Service above Self."
"This is first time that Evesham Rotary Club has made a non-Rotarian a Paul Harris Fellow, which is an indication of the club's regard for her dedication and commitment to the communities that Midlands Air Ambulance charity serves."
Mrs Ashman added: "I am honoured to have been given the Paul Harris Fellow, and I've been on 'cloud nine' ever since receiving it.
"I truly enjoy volunteering with the charity and have been blessed by a terrific level of support from local fund-raisers and donors."
Visit www.midlandsairambulance.com for more information about the charity.

Article: Distant lymph node metastases in gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma: impact of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is established as the most accurate technique for pre-operative locoregional staging of gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma, the purpose of the present study was to evaluate the distant lymph nodes (LNs) EUS-fine-needle aspiration (FNA) impact in therapeutic decision for patients with GEJ adenocarcinoma.Endoscopic ultrasound. 07/2013; 2(3):148-52.
Article: Boosted selective internal radiation therapy with (90)Y-loaded glass microspheres (B-SIRT) for hepatocellular carcinoma patients: a new personalized promising concept.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: PURPOSE: To evaluate the impact of dosimetry based on MAA SPECT/CT for the prediction of response, toxicity and survival, and for treatment planning in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with (90)Y-loaded glass microspheres (TheraSphere®). METHODS: TheraSphere® was administered to 71 patients with inoperable HCC. MAA SPECT/CT quantitative analysis was used for the calculation of the tumour dose (TD), healthy injected liver dose (HILD), and total injected liver dose. Response was evaluated at 3 months using EASL criteria. Time to progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Factors potentially associated with liver toxicity were combined to construct a liver toxicity score (LTS). RESULTS: The response rate was 78.8 %. Median TD were 342 Gy for responding lesions and 191 Gy for nonresponding lesions (p < 0.001). With a threshold TD of 205 Gy, MAA SPECT/CT predicted response with a sensitivity of 100 % and overall accuracy of 90 %. Based on TD and HILD, 17 patients underwent treatment intensification resulting in a good response rate (76.4 %), without increased grade III liver toxicity. The median TTP and OS were 5.5 months (2-9.5 months) and 11.5 months (2-31 months), respectively, in patients with TD <205 Gy and 13 months (10-16 months) and 23.2 months (17.5-28.5 months), respectively, in those with TD >205 Gy (p = 0.0015 and not significant). Among patients with portal vein thrombosis (PVT) (n = 33), the median TTP and OS were 4.5 months (2-7 months) and 5 months (2-8 months), respectively, in patients with TD <205 Gy and 10 months (6-15.2 months) and 21.5 months (12-28.5 months), respectively, in those with TD >205 Gy (p = 0.039 and 0.005). The median OS was 24.5 months (18-28.5 months) in PVT patients with TD >205 Gy and good PVT targeting on MAA SPECT/CT. The LTS was able to detect severe liver toxicity (n = 6) with a sensitivity of 83 % and overall accuracy of 97 %. CONCLUSION: Dosimetry based on MAA SPECT/CT was able to accurately predict response and survival in patients treated with glass microspheres. This method can be used to adapt the injected activity without increasing liver toxicity, thus defining a new concept of boosted selective internal radiation therapy (B-SIRT). This new concept and LTS enable fully personalized treatment planning with glass microspheres to be achieved.European Journal of Nuclear Medicine 04/2013; · 4.53 Impact Factor
Article: Lobar hepatocellular carcinoma with ipsilateral portal vein tumor thrombosis treated with yttrium-90 glass microsphere radioembolization: preliminary results.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) is a common complication of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and has a negative impact on prognosis. This characteristic feature led to the rationale of the present trial designed to assess the efficacy and the safety of yttrium-90 glass-microsphere treatment for advanced-stage lobar HCC with ipsilateral PVTT. 18 patients with unresectable lobar HCC and ipsilateral PVTT were treated in our institution with Y-microS radioembolization. Patients were evaluated every 3 to 6 months for response, survival, and toxicity. Mean follow-up was 13.0 months (2.2-50.6). Outcomes were: complete response ( = 2), partial response ( = 13), stable disease ( = 1), and progressive disease ( = 2) giving a disease control rate of 88.9%. Four patients were downstaged. Treating lobar hepatocellular carcinoma with ipsilateral portal vein thrombosis with yttrium-90 glass-microsphere radioembolization is safe and efficacious. Further clinical trials are warranted to confirm these results and to compare Y-microS with sorafenib, taking into account not only survival but also the possibility of secondary surgery for putative curative intention after downstaging.International journal of hepatology. 01/2013; 2013:827649.
Article: Impact of primary tumour resection on survival of patients with colorectal cancer and synchronous metastases treated by chemotherapy: Results from the multicenter, randomised trial Fédération Francophone de Cancérologie Digestive 9601.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of primary tumour resection on overall survival (OS) of patients diagnosed with stage IV colorectal cancer (CRC). DESIGN: Among the 294 patients with non-resectable colorectal metastases enrolled in the Fédération Francophone de Cancérologie Digestive (FFCD) 9601 phase III trial, which compared different first-line single-agent chemotherapy regimens, 216 patients (73%) presented with synchronous metastases at study entry and constituted the present study population. Potential baseline prognostic variables including prior primary tumour resection were assessed by univariate and multivariate Cox analyses. Progression-free survival (PFS) and OS curves were compared with the logrank test. RESULTS: Among the 216 patients with stage IV CRC (median follow-up, 33months), 156 patients (72%) had undergone resection of their primary tumour prior to study entry. The resection and non-resection groups did not differ for baseline characteristics except for primary tumour location (rectum, 14% versus 35%; p=0.0006). In multivariate analysis, resection of the primary was the strongest independent prognostic factor for PFS (hazard ratio (HR), 0.5; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.4-0.8; p=0.0002) and OS (HR, 0.4; CI, 0.3-0.6; p<0.0001). Both median PFS (5.1 [4.6-5.6] versus 2.9 [2.2-4.1] months; p=0.001) and OS (16.3 [13.7-19.2] versus 9.6 [7.4-12.5]; p<0.0001) were significantly higher in the resection group. These differences in patient survival were maintained after exclusion of patients with rectal primary (n=43). CONCLUSION: Resection of the primary tumour may be associated with longer PFS and OS in patients with stage IV CRC starting first-line, single-agent chemotherapy.European journal of cancer (Oxford, England: 1990) 08/2012; · 4.12 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: The primary goal of this study was to develop descriptive image interpretation criteria and a classification of endoscopic ultrasound-confocal microscopy (EUS-CM) findings in pancreatic masses and lymph nodes through a review of prospectively obtained EUS-CM videos from proven malignant and benign cases, and to propose diagnostic criteria for predicting malignancy. The material used was a 19-G EUS-needle in which the stylet was replaced by the confocal mini-probe. The mini-probe pre-loaded in the EUS-needle was guided endosonographically in the target then the mini-probe was pushed under EUS guidance into the lesion. Eleven patients mean age 62.3 years underwent EUS for the staging of a pancreatic mass (3 cystic and 4 solid) or for the diagnosis of celiac and/or mediastinal LN (n = 4). Benign intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) was characterized by the aspect of finger-like projections which correspond to the villous changes of intestinal IPMN type. In pancreatic adenocarcinomas, EUS-CM found vascular leakage with irregular vessels with leakage of fluorescein into the tumor, large dark clumps which correspond to humps of malignant cells. Inflammatory lymph nodes were characterized by the presence of diffuse small cells into a homogeneous stroma with a normal vascularization. At the opposite, EUS-CM showed in malignant lymph node glandular structures with dark cells, large dark clumps and an important neo-vascularization with huge leakage of fluorescein.Endoscopic ultrasound. 07/2012; 1(2):80-3.
Article: Metástasis hepáticas[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: La aparición de metástasis hepáticas resulta frecuente en el transcurso de la historia natural del cáncer (25%). Los principales tumores que causan metástasis hepáticas son los que drenan a través del sistema porta (50%), con el adenocarcinoma colorrectal en primer lugar (40%). Cuando constituyen la primera manifestación de la enfermedad, el problema diagnóstico no reside tanto en el carácter maligno de las lesiones como en su origen, ya que el pronóstico y el tratamiento son radicalmente distintos en función del tumor primario. En un primer momento, es preciso orientarse a partir de los datos clínicos y, si esto no es posible, hay que buscar con prioridad los cánceres sensibles a un tratamiento específico. Si el tumor primario no se identifica de manera sencilla, la biopsia de la lesión hepática es esencial para confirmar la naturaleza maligna de la lesión, determinar su tipo histológico y orientar hacia un tumor primario a través del estudio del fenotipo inmunohistoquímico tumoral. Con la excepción del cáncer colorrectal, los tumores de células germinales y el melanoma coroideo, cuyas metástasis hepáticas pueden ser objeto de resección quirúrgica, la orientación terapéutica en los demás tipos de cáncer es de tipo paliativo. Los recientes avances en su tratamiento oncológico han permitido mejorar su pronóstico, que, sin embargo, sigue siendo sombrío.EMC - Tratado de Medicina. 06/2012; 16(2):1–8.
Article: Metastasi epatiche[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: La comparsa di metastasi epatiche è frequente (25%) nel corso della storia naturale dei cancri. I principali tumori all'origine delle metastasi epatiche sono quelli che sono sottoposti a drenaggio attraverso il sistema portale (50%), con, in primo luogo, l'adenocarcinoma colorettale (40%). Quando sono rivelatrici, il problema diagnostico non è tanto quello della natura maligna delle lesioni quanto quello della loro origine, in quanto la prognosi e i trattamenti ipotizzati sono radicalmente diversi in funzione del cancro primitivo. Ci si orienta in un primo tempo in funzione dei dati clinici e, in mancanza di orientamento, si ricercano prioritariamente i cancri sensibili a un trattamento specifico. Se il cancro primitivo non è individuato semplicemente, la biopsia della lesione epatica è fondamentale per confermare la natura maligna della lesione, determinarne il tipo istologico e orientare verso un cancro primitivo grazie allo studio del fenotipo immunoistochimico tumorale. A eccezione del cancro colorettale, dei tumori germinali e del melanoma coroideo, cancri le cui metastasi epatiche possono essere resecate chirurgicamente, ci si orienta, per le altre neoplasie, verso un trattamento palliativo. I progressi recenti nella loro gestione oncologica hanno permesso di migliorare la loro prognosi, che rimane comunque infausta.EMC - AKOS - Trattato di Medicina. 06/2012; 14(2):1–8.

ABSTRACT: This study is a retrospective analysis of 64 patients with a primary or secondary liver malignancy, referred for yttrium-90 radioembolisation between December 2006 and September 2010. Among these 64 patients, 54 received a total number of 69 injections (one to three treatments per patient). The mean activity injected per treatment was 3.1±1.6GBq. The liver targeted dose was 123.1±39Gy. Pulmonary shunt, detected in 55% of treatments, was 5.7%±7.4. The pulmonary dose was 4.7±7.1Gy. Overall, response rate per patient, evaluated at 3months by EASL or modified RECIST criteria, was 72.9%, 70% for hepatocellular carcinoma. The complication rate was relatively low (17%) with only two serious events. 90Y-microspheres radioembolisation of liver malignancies is an effective and well-tolerated therapy. Until now often used as a salvage therapy, the recent and ongoing studies should better define its place in the therapeutic strategy (adjuvant, neoadjuvant, first line) and possible association with chemotherapy and targeted therapies.Medecine Nucleaire-imagerie Fonctionnelle Et Metabolique - MED NUCL. 01/2011; 35(4):224-231.

Article: Traitement des carcinomes hépatocellulaires par injection intra-artérielle de radio-isotopes[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Hepatocellular carcinoma is now a major public health concern. In intermediate stages (one third of hepatocellular carcinoma patients), chemoembolization is the standard of care despite a poor tolerance and a moderate efficacy. Moreover, despite recent improvements, this technique seems in a dead end. Radioembolization could be an excellent tool for such patients. Currently 131I-Lipiodol, 188Re-Lipiodol, 90Y-glass or resin microspheres are available. More recent and promising data come from microspheres, but phase II and III studies are needed before drawing any conclusion. In the future, the combination of radioembolization with systemic chemotherapy or targeted agents (particularly antiangiogenic drugs) seems very promising.Cancer Radiotherapie - CANCER RADIOTHER. 01/2011; 15(1):64-68.
Article: Phase II randomised trial of chemoradiotherapy with FOLFOX4 or cisplatin plus fluorouracil in oesophageal cancer.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Concurrent chemoradiotherapy is a valuable treatment option for localised oesophageal cancer (EC), but improvement is still needed. A randomised phase II trial was initiated to assess the feasibility and efficacy in terms of the endoscopic complete response rate (ECRR) of radiotherapy with oxaliplatin, leucovorin and fluorouracil (FOLFOX4) or cisplatin/fluorouracil. Patients with unresectable EC (any T, any N, M0 or M1a), or medically unfit for surgery, were randomly assigned to receive either six cycles (three concomitant and three post-radiotherapy) of FOLFOX4 (arm A) or four cycles (two concomitant and two post-radiotherapy) of cisplatin/fluorouracil (arm B) along with radiotherapy 50 Gy in both arms. Responses were reviewed by independent experts. A total of 97 patients were randomised (arm A/B, 53/44) and 95 were assessable. The majority had squamous cell carcinoma (82%; arm A/B, 42/38). Chemoradiotherapy was completed in 74 and 66%. The ECRR was 45 and 29% in arms A and B, respectively. Median times to progression were 15.2 and 9.2 months and the median overall survival was 22.7 and 15.1 months in arms A and B, respectively. Chemoradiotherapy with FOLFOX4, a well-tolerated and convenient combination with promising efficacy, is now being tested in a phase III trial.British Journal of Cancer 10/2010; 103(9):1349-55. · 5.08 Impact Factor
Article: Development and validation of a new prognostic score of death for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in palliative setting.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in a palliative setting have a poor prognosis despite recent therapeutic progress. Several prognostic scores, such as the BCLC and the CLIP, have been shown to be useful in helping select treatment options ranging from transplantation to palliative care. However, the discriminatory ability of these scores is inadequate in palliative settings, which concern about 70% of HCC patients. In this paper, we propose and validate a new prognostic score for patients in the palliative setting. The prognostic score was developed on a set of 416 patients from a negative randomized clinical trial conducted by the Fédération Francophone de Cancers Digestifs. It was then subsequently validated on a second set of 271 patients from another negative trial. Backward selection was used to identify independent baseline characteristics. Measures of discrimination and predictive values were computed to assess the quality of the developed score. Comparisons with the BCLC and the CLIP - with and without the WHO performance status (PS) score - were performed. Tumour morphology, portal vein obstruction, metastasis, ascites, jaundice, alpha-foetoprotein, and serum alkaline phosphatase were included in the final score. From the training dataset, three groups of increasing risk were defined, and these were associated with hazard ratios (HR) of 2.13 and HR = 5.72. Similar results were obtained on the validation dataset. This score provides a better discriminatory ability than BCLC and CLIP in this setting. Unfortunately, absolute performances for these scores remain poor. The new prognostic score and CLIP + PS are recommended in palliative settings. However, new prognostic variables are necessary.Journal of Hepatology 08/2010; 54(1):108-14. · 9.86 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: The aim of this randomized multicenter phase III trial was to compare chemotherapy and interferon (IFN) in patients with metastatic carcinoid tumors. Patients with documented progressive, unresectable, metastatic carcinoid tumors were randomized between 5-fluorouracil plus streptozotocin (day 1-5) and recombinant IFN-alpha-2a (3 MU x 3 per week). Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). From February 1998 to June 2004, 64 patients were included. The two arms were well matched for median age, sex ratio, PS 0-1, previous chemotherapy, surgery, or radiotherapy. The median PFS for chemotherapy was 5.5 months versus 14.1 for IFN (hazard ratio=0.75 (0.41-1.36)). Overall survival (OS), tolerance, and effects on carcinoid symptoms were not significantly different. Despite a trend in favor of IFN, there was no difference in PFS and OS in advanced metastatic carcinoid tumors and therapeutic effect of both treatments was mild.Endocrine Related Cancer 01/2009; 16(4):1351-1361. · 5.26 Impact Factor

Article: Quality of life as a prognostic factor of overall survival in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma: results from two French clinical trials.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The aims of our study were to assess quality of life (QoL) as a prognostic factor of overall survival (OS) and to determine whether QoL data improved three prognostic classifications among French patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We pooled two randomized clinical trials conducted by the Fédération Francophone de Cancérologie Digestive in a palliative setting. In each trial QoL was assessed at baseline using the Spitzer QoL Index (0-10). Three prognostic classifications were calculated: Okuda, Cancer of the Liver Italian Program (CLIP), and Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer group (BCLC) scores. To explore whether the scores could be improved by including QoL, univariate Cox analyses of all potential baseline predictors were performed. A final multivariate Cox model was constructed including only significant multivariate baseline variables likely to result in improvement of each scoring system. In order to retain the best prognostic variable to add for each score, we compared Akaike information criterion, likelihood ratio, and Harrell's C-index. Cox analyses were stratified for each trial. Among 538 included patients, QoL at baseline was available for 489 patients (90%). Longer median OS was significantly associated with higher Spitzer scores at baseline, ranging from 2.17 months (Spitzer=3) to 8.93 months (Spitzer=10). Variables retained in the multivariate Cox model were: jaundice, hepatomegaly, hepatalgia, portal thrombosis, alphafetoprotein, bilirubin, albumin, small HCC, and Spitzer QoL Index (hazard ratio=0.84 95% CI [0.79-0.90]). According to Harrell's C-index, QoL was the best prognostic variable to add. CLIP plus the Spitzer QoL Index had the most discriminating value (C=0.71). Our results suggest that QoL is an independent prognostic factor for survival in HCC patients with mainly alcoholic cirrhosis. The prognostic value of CLIP score could be improved by adding Spitzer QOL Index scores.Quality of Life Research 08/2008; 17(6):831-43. · 2.86 Impact Factor

If you got a chance to catch last weekend's episode of "Eat It and Like It," then you saw something that hasn't been spotted in a very long time on our show.
The most loyal, who go way back with us to that first season in fall 2011, will probably know what was different this weekend.
The answer? We were back in the kitchen.
I actually sat down and did some math and came up with the fact that it had been almost two years since we shot a new cooking segment in a kitchen.
Last weekend, we circled back around to the spot of one of our very first cooking segments: 700 Kitchen Cooking School inside The Mansion on Forsyth Park.
Executive Chef Peter Russo and I had a blast in a beautiful facility, and frankly, it made me think about Christmas and unique Christmas gifts. What better idea for that food lover/wannabe chef in your life than a visit to that cooking school?
Chef Peter is relatively new to town. He arrived in Savannah from the Washington, D.C., area in May. Four days after he rode into town, he was cooking his first class.
He took a little bit of time to look at what his predecessor, Chef Darin Sehnert, had built at The Mansion since the school opened in 2005.
I recall chatting with Peter over the summer and him telling me he wanted to change a few things, and it would all take a little bit of time. Time is up, and you need to go try some of these classes.
The biggest change was scheduling. For years, the cooking classes were during the day, which really only opened them up to tourists, or locals looking to play tourists. It was hard for anyone who lived in this area to take a random Tuesday off to enroll in a class. I mean, sure, you could, but getting some friends together to enjoy it with was undoubtedly a challenge. Chef Peter is now offering some classes in the evenings, at 5 p.m. or 6 p.m., and it varies with the day, the menu and the time of year.
But seriously, how much fun could that be to get a few friends, bust out of work early and head over to an evening of learning great techniques, dishes and menus, and have a blast in the process. And I haven't even told you about the other big change.
Once upon a time, I recall asking Chef Darin if he served wine during his classes. He kind of squinted and said, "No, I try to stay away from that."
Which was more than understandable. You get alcohol involved and people tend to lose focus of the reason why you are taking a class in the first place. Well, the rules are different now and Chef Peter has no problem saying so.
"When we are cutting and lots of knives are involved, there is no wine," Peter says. "But if we are just mixing and stirring and maybe sautéing some crab cakes, I'll pour a little wine so everyone can relax a bit and enjoy themselves."
At no extra charge. Hey, if you are spending about $100 to take a fantastic cooking class, the chances of it turning into a sloppy, washed-out wine fest are very slim, and that's a good thing.
I popped in on one of Peter's classes last week ahead of our shoot and just loved the scene in there. There was music playing in the background, strangers were chatting and creating stuffed mushrooms, another group was making crab cakes, still another group was grilling shrimp skewers and chicken. The energy was fantastic. Group photos, selfies, laughs and a good time. It looked like a blast. Of course, I love to cook. Heck, I'd better, or I need to go find another occupation.
The courses are similar to what they used to be. Lowcountry cuisine is very popular, but the chef has introduced an Italian course that teaches you how to make fresh pasta, much like we did on our show.
"I should sell pasta machines in here," Peter says. "Once everyone sees how easy it is to make fresh pasta, they are addicted."
No surprise. There's also a course like the one I witnessed on hors d'oeuvres, and even one showing you how to make your own baby food. I guess if you can't convince your significant other to try something new, you can leave them a tiny jar of split pea stuff and slip out the back with your adventurous foodie friends.
Seriously, though, this is a good time to get together with some friends or even a husband-and-wife team. The classes have been Trip Advisor's No. 1 attraction in Savannah for years, and with good reason. New instructor, same high standard. There is a ton of food to eat once you are done, and of course, those couple of glasses of wine. A perfect gift for someone you know who would enjoy it or even a girls night out type of thing. Looking for a gift for that someone you know who has everything but loves food? You might want to start at The Mansion.
See you on TV,
How much fun does this sound like? The Florence is doing a cookie decorating party for kids from 2-4 p.m. Dec. 21. Cost is $10 per child and includes all the tools they need. Sounds like a great time. If parents want to hang around nearby, the downstairs will be open for those couple of hours. Sounds like a better time.
Pacci is hosting its "Feast of the 7 Fishes" on Christmas Eve. 7 Fishes is an Italian Christmas Eve tradition. The courses include lobster mac 'n' cheese gnocchi and a parmesean-encrusted trout. Cost is $85 without wine or $125 with wine pairings. Call 233-3002 for more information and reservations.
Most of us reading this are locals, but you should know, we get asked ALL of the time who is open for the holidays and not. Visit Savannah puts together a comprehensive list of what is open and what isn't through New Year's Day. Go to www.visitsavannah.com for that. Quick heads up: Christmas Day? Slim pickins if you want to eat out.

Everything changed in November of last year for Amber and John Roelle.
"Forrest hadn't shown up. We thought he was running late ..." John says. "That was when (Thunderbolt Police) Chief Merriman came here and told us he wanted to talk to us. That was when he told us that Forrest had been shot and killed at his house.
"It took the wind out of our sails. It kind of threw everything for a loop."
The shooting of Forrest Ison, executive chef of Brasserie 529, grabbed headlines for a while, then faded away from the public eye. Of course, for Amber and John, they were dealing with the loss of not only a very close friend, but also their right-hand man in the kitchen of their restaurant on Liberty Street in downtown Savannah.
"Him dying just took the wind out of our sails," John says. "He and I were doing the menus together. I had my ideas; he had his. He really stepped up and took charge."
They found a way to push forward, but that only lasted a few more months. They shut down in June.
"Nothing was the same. Everyone's demeanor changed. It slowed us down a lot," he says.
The restaurant, for its part, was doing well. The food at Brasserie was good, the clientele a steady diet of locals. They had a following.
Sometimes though, when the energy isn't there, those bad vibes have a way of feeding off themselves until there isn't anything you can do about it anymore.
Once the decision was made, they literally closed up shop. They locked the door and didn't return to the building they owned for quite a bit of time.
"We traveled a little bit. Went to Maine and to Connecticut," Amber says. "We got to see some family we hadn't been able to see in a while. We thought about not opening again, but then knew, really, we had to. We weren't just going to give up."
That summer road trip probably contained a good bit of conversation about what was going to happen next. They had been in Savannah for 10 years, so leaving here wasn't an option. Concepts were discussed, visions and new ideas. The ultimate goal was to make what they had more approachable to the general public.
"We had become a special occasion destination," John tells me. Amber agrees completely.
"We didn't want to own a fine dining place. It just ended up being fine dining and more," she says. "This is more us."
The "this" she talks about is their new Liberty Street Grill. Same location as 529 (that would be 529 Liberty St.) Same brick building exterior. Same six-seat bar.
There was no dramatic facelift, but what they have done looks fantastic.
"We changed some lighting to make it more comfortable," she says. "We removed the brass we had everywhere and eliminated the white table cloths. It's more vibrant and neighborhood."
I have to agree. They've added two televisions, one on each side of the bar.
"You'll only find sports on these," John says.
They've added a beautiful outdoor seating and eating area that looks out on Liberty Street with every intention of taking advantage of foot traffic.
"Liberty Street is starting to boom," Amber says. "Smith Brothers going in next door will help a lot."
Not to mention a good bit of residential development along and near Crawford Square across the street.
"We have a great support system. We have people who love to eat here but we wanted something with more of a neighborhood feel," she says.
"Somewhere you would go on your night off?" I ask.
"Exactly," Amber says.
There is now one menu. Same menu from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., six days a week. The focus is on doing more of what Savannah is looking for. Yes, they still have duck leg confit and sweetbreads on their menu, but they have added a ton of sandwiches, including two different burgers.
"They were always the most popular," Amber says.
There's a lobster roll and several different fish dishes. There are also a number of salads on this menu. How'd they get here?
"She told me what we were doing and I said OK," John says with a laugh. Seared scallops and a 14-ounce Delmonico steak seared in duck fat round up the higher end of the menu.
This menu will work for Savannah. The Roelles know what they are doing. Formally trained at Johnson and Wales (he as a chef, she in front of the house), they can do well with this concept. They've hit the mark with a more approachable space, and the menu at a glance looks like it's a good one. We have no reason to believe the food won't be good, even if John seems most excited about the chicken wings sauce recipe one of his employees came up with.
"It's Texas Pete with some strange seasoning and Country Crock," he says with a laugh. "But it's actually very good and everyone loves it."
You probably will, as well.
Time away usually helps most people gain a clearer perspective on where they are and what they are doing. This "break" was forced upon the Roelles, really by tragedy. You can still see that heartbreak in their eyes when you bring up the loss of their friend. That feeling will very likely never go away.
They are, however, re-energized and ready to make another go of it in what could very well be a new kind of downtown destination restaurant.
See you on TV,
Granite is now open at Drayton and Liberty streets. More on them soon. Across the street, Vino Veritas is a new wine bar on the ground floor of Drayton Tower.

Can you believe we've reached the home stretch on 2014?
Thanksgiving is upon us, and we'll spend the next five weeks eating and liking and promising a diet Jan. 1. No?
The weather has cooperated with the season and the decorations seemingly have gone up in record time.
They call it the most wonderful time of the year, and for good reason. Our city comes alive at the holidays.
Downtown, residents of Savannah's famous squares pour out, set up a table with food and drink and share some time decorating those squares.
And seemingly every municipality in the region gathers around to put up their tree, almost like the final scene from "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" but without the dog, sled or the heist.
It's enough reason to make us smile and get all warm and fuzzy during this holiday time, but the reality is we have reason to be thankful all year long.
We are fortunate enough to live in a very special place. Thirteen million people come through here every single year.
You know they are coming for more than a picture of a statue or some fried chicken.
I parked two blocks away from a meeting this morning at 7 a.m. and walked down the middle of Bull Street in the rain. Along the double yellow lines. So I got wet? Big deal.
But I was as mesmerized by this city's glow in the morning rain as I am any other day or night in Savannah.
I personally consider myself extremely lucky and am very thankful for a great many things this city has to offer.
• I'm thankful for the growth this city has seen and will see going forward. Regardless of where you stand on what is going on down on Broughton Street, I am a believer that progress is good. Hotels going up everywhere and more on the way.
• We all should be thankful that new restaurants in town are forcing others to notice and "up their game." I had one manager recently refer to "shiny new pennies" all over town that are attracting people. Pacci is beautiful. The Florence is, as well. Rue de Jean, once they open, will be a fantastic new addition to this city and The Grey at 109 MLK Blvd. has a chance to be the best of them all. Time will tell, but it is a good conversation to have.
• I'm personally thankful for the remarkable growth the Savannah Food and Wine Festival showed in year two. I think overwhelming is a fair word. I was told ticket sales were up 198 percent leading up to that week and I think every single one of those people showed up at Taste of Savannah. If you were there, you know there were some issues with logistics. I have no problem saying that. I also do know those issues will be addressed and corrected. Big time. Growing too quickly is a good problem to have. My two cents, anyway.
• I'm thankful for scent of shallots cooking down in rendered bacon fat. Onions work, as well. Sorry, I digress.
• We should be thankful for Ele and Chef Sean Tran's dedication to their restaurants. We've had the opportunity to enjoy King and I and Tangerine for years, but have you seen the lines at Flying Monk on Broughton Street? Right across the street from what many believe is the city's best seafood spot at Chive?
• Thankful that the guys, Seth and Patrick, at Betty Bombers are rebuilding after a devastating fire. Yes, the city has had its say on the re-build inside of the American Legion Hall on Bull Street, but Betty Bombers is in the middle of that re-build right now. They will be open soon. No dates yet. My first Ultimate Chicken Sub will be a celebration.
• Thankful that an Austrailian decided to set up shop here, completely re-design a space on Bull and Oglethorpe and call it Collins Quarter. Anthony Debreceny is working 17 hours a day in his place. That's a large reason why so many are eating and liking.
• I'm very thankful that Paula Deen got up off the canvas and got back to work this year. There is not a person reading this right now who hasn't been challenged by adversity. How you respond to it is really what defines you. I think Ms. Paula has done just fine.
• I'm thankful for that Triple Decker Turkey Club Sandwich at Crystal Beer Parlor. Toasted rye and cheddar, please.
• We should be thankful for young, passionate visionaries like Ruel Joyner. There is seriously not a word that comes out of his mouth that I think isn't somehow intended for improving quality of life in his hometown.
• I'm thankful for the culinary talent that has chosen to either return to Savannah or stay here and try to create a better food scene. Karl Mace, James Levins and Matt Roher are just three names. But there are many. So many guys and gals leave for the big city first chance they get. We need more to stay here.
• And finally, I am incredibly thankful to all of you for your support of "Eat It and Like It," including those of you who take a moment to say hello in public and those of you who watch our television show. Ratings are great and 2015 will be even better.
So thank you and Happy Thanksgiving!
We've all cracked the jokes about retailers getting a jump on the holidays.
You see Christmas trees, light displays and inflatables going up at the warehouse stores around Labor Day and the flood of social media snark begins: It's too early! It's too hot outside to be thinking about the holidays! Enough already!
We've all been there. Add to that, over the weekend I saw a handful of Christmas-related TV commercials. Black Friday promotions are already live and well. The reality is that won't change any time soon. Anything to get a jump, right? In the spirit of all of that (frankly) foolishness, I am going to share your first taste of holiday cheer in our time together here. I've decided to go ahead and share this information this week because by Nov. 27, it will be Thanksgiving and lots of plans will already be made.
You should know about this in advance and make plans to attend what could wind up becoming a signature event in our great city's future. It's all happening at The Westin Savannah Harbor on Hutchinson Island. I've written about the happenings at The Westin a few times this year. What they are doing is fantastic and is very deserving of the attention. Now, their holiday program could be the best of them all, and that's saying something, wouldn't you would agree?
I was invited this week, as I have been for the last four or five years, to be a judge at The Westin's annual gingerbread house event. A dozen or so of us gather in a ballroom full of gingerbread houses, munchies, a glass of wine and a clipboard and start tallying up the best of the best.
As in years past, the talent is outstanding in a number of different categories. Yes, we do know the winners, but you don't. You'll find out soon enough, or better yet, you can go take a look for yourself. It's one of my family's favorite things to do during the holidays. You take a ride over there, have some hot chocolate, stroll the lobby and enjoy the sights for an hour or so. That's enough of a good time right there, but this year, the ante is being upped. This year, they are adding a full-blown carnival to The Westin's annual Festival of Lights. Yes, a holiday carnival.
In between The Westin's property and the International Trade & Convention center, we are told there will be a full-blown play area for families to enjoy. There will be rides, attractions and holiday cheer set up in the plaza between the two buildings. It will a winter wonderland that we've not seen in Savannah. At least I haven't.
The idea is to have guests park their cars at the trade center, enjoy the festival and take a stroll through the hotel's lobby to see all of the hard work that goes into the gingerbread houses. This year features a model of the Mercer House with pasta being used as iron railings. I'm not kidding — the visuals are amazing and very much worth the trip.
Also this year will be an opportunity to ride a trolley through the hotel's Festival of Lights. In years past, guests have been able to drive their cars through the winding course of lights on Hutchinson Island. That is still the case. Families and their cars are still welcome, but Old Town Trolleys will also be offering rides for visitors to the hotel grounds.
Either way, there is a fee. Neither one of the options are free of charge, but they are offering guests a way to enjoy the carnival, the hotel and the lights without having to return to their cars.
Those are just some of the events going on during the holidays on The Westin's property. They have a full schedule of events, essentially from Thanksgiving through Christmas and New Year's Eve, for anyone to enjoy. The carnival, the boat parade on Nov. 29 and the Equinox concert on Dec. 17 are some of the highlights. There's also the very popular Reindeer Run on Dec. 20.
There are other events going on during the holidays of course, but a lot of what is being done at The Westin this year is new. It sounds like a ton of fun, and is all very much worth making plans to be there. Any further information can be found at www.westinsavannah.com.
Just don't say you didn't have plenty of warning. Next year, I'll give you that heads up around Labor Day!
See you on TV,
Huge round of applause to Michael Owens, Jan Gourley and all parties involved in the 2014 Savannah Food and Wine Festival. An unbelievable week for our city. There are some bugs to work out. I have every confidence they will be. I was told ticket sales were up 198 percent from year one. Good problem to have. Let's do it again next year!
Early returns are good from Lili's Restaurant and Bar on Wilmington Island. I personally have not been there yet, but a few people whose opinions I trust have and they enjoyed it. We'll keep you posted.
Of course, you can find out if I've been there right away by following me on Twitter (I many times Tweet before I eat). Or on Facebook.
We are having some fun with seafood this Sunday on Eat It and Like It. 7:30 a.m. Nov. 23 on WSAV-TV.
When I sat down to write this particular piece of work, I had to give it some thought.
There was no interview to be done. There was no agenda to push. There was no real angle on how I was going to approach our time together here.
I had a bit of a discussion with the editors at the Savannah Morning News and they laid out their road map to me regarding their plan for coverage for the second Savannah Food and Wine Festival. You combine that with the amazing work our staff at Eat It and Like It has done previewing this festival and the event has a blanket on it.
There is no shortage of chef bios, no shortage of event previews, no shortage of anything, really. If you are interested in any aspect of this city's celebration of food, anything you need is just a web browser away.
And I am just giddy as a school boy after that first kiss.
We all know about festival season in Savannah. The movie buffs just had their week, the musicians had theirs just before that. The runners among us will be sporting their great legs this weekend. Once they are done, it then becomes a week for food lovers. And there are plenty among us.
The average person who doesn't obsessively watch all the different reality cooking shows out there or spend time traveling to a lot of different locations around the South tasting new and exciting meals may not realize how big of a deal this is for Savannah, but a lot of us do.
Much in the same way "The Hurt Locker" was screened here at the Savannah Film Festival as a relatively unknown before going on to an Oscar for Best Picture, there are a good many chefs coming to your city to share their talents with you. Chefs who have already won the highest honor in American cuisine or still others that might eventually do so. It's a true sampling of the best in Southern cuisine on display here in lil' ol' Savannah.
The names, you probably haven't heard of. Maybe Kevin Gillespie. He was a contestant on "Top Chef." He will be here participating in the Beard Foundation dinner. Along with him will be Savannah native Steve Satterfield, a graduate of Johnson High School. Steve has been nominated for a Beard Award and nominated for Food and Wine Magazine's "People's Best New Chef."
These men (and women) have skills, tremendous skills, in the kitchen and they are coming to your city to cook for you. It's tough to pass up on that.
I could go on and on about all the events and chefs and menus that I am excited about, but I will leave it to you to look up the events you may find interesting.
Sure, you can spend $195 on a top-of-the-line wine dinner next week, but you can also spend about $50 and taste foods all day, sample a ton of wine and enjoy our beautiful weather in the fall.
There really is something for everyone and if you are on the fence about attending anything in Savannah next week, you should at the very least attend Taste of Savannah. It is well worth every penny and a fantastic time to boot.
I've watched this festival grow from an idea in a cavernous, near-empty trade center a few years ago to a week-long event I would put up against anything that happens in this city at any point during the year. With a respectful nod to all of the fun that can be had in this great city year-round, this food festival could wind up being the biggest. Yes, I said it. The biggest.
It might take a few years, but the potential is there. Go ahead, accuse me of bias. That's fine. But there is one thing I can say about every single person on the planet. They all eat.
OK, enough of that foodie-based bravado. This is absolutely our time. Our time to showcase local talent, of which there is plenty, and our time to show some of the biggest names in Southern cuisine that we can and will turn out to support the best in the industry.
Why wouldn't we? You're almost guaranteed to eat it and like it.
See you on TV,
We've put together a fantastic guide to the 2014 Savannah Food and Wine Festival. In it you'll find my Q&A with Kevin Gillespie, some insight into the wine dinners and even the best way to enjoy the week on a tight budget. It's all there right now at www.eatitandlikeit.com.
A ton of new restaurants coming online in the area. We are all eagerly awaiting the opening of The Grey on MLK downtown, but in the meantime, a couple of others will likely pop up before that. Lili's Restaurant and Bar is set to open on Wilmington Island very soon, 326 Johnny Mercer Blvd. (The old Michael's Spot).
Liberty Street Grill is the new concept going into the old Brasserie 529 on Liberty Street near Houston. They have a menu (I've seen it, thumbs up) and are putting some finishing touches on the space. I'm told "loosely November." I'll keep you posted on that one.
New hours for the Farm Stand at Bethesda Academy: 3-5:30 p.m. Tuesday and 8:30 a.m.-noon Saturday. Go to www.bethesdaacademy.org for details.

I have never seen a ghost or anything I thought might be a ghost.
Has my mind played tricks on me at several points over the years? Especially at night? When no one is around? When you think you might have seen something but didn't?
To that mix, I can add that I have had plenty of friends, especially in Savannah, tell me countless stories that I have no reason to not believe. Showers turning on by themselves in local hotels, or items disappearing altogether. Spend enough time in Savannah and you'll hear it all.
As I have.
Again, I have no reason to not believe the people telling me these tales. They typically have no agenda, no motive or frankly, no reason to make up some of the tales I've been told. The latest came to me over the summer. Quite frankly, it's fascinating and curious at the same time.
I got a call from Wille Tuten back in July. He is the owner of Tondee's Tavern on Bay Street near Bull, in the old Tony Roma's location. We had never met before. I had popped into his place a couple of times for a beverage but had never eaten there. Mr. Tuten wanted to show me a piece of video that had been recorded inside his tavern. A piece of surveillance video that he found very interesting, but didn't have any explanation for. We set up a meeting.
When I got there, took me into his office and played a piece of video for me. The video was shot by a ceiling-mounted surveillance camera inside of his establishment. A fixed camera that shot in the same direction at all times. It had picked up a fire that was growing outside on the sidewalk along Bay Street. Apparently, someone had put a cigarette into a flower box outside Tondee's Tavern as they walked by. The culprit moved along, but the fire crackled and popped right outside a window.
That ceiling-mounted camera captured it all. Oh, by the way, it was after 3 a.m. on June 22.
Meanwhile, two employees slept downstairs between a late Saturday night shift and an early Sunday shift. It wasn't uncommon for Tondee's employees to sleep downstairs if they had a tight turnaround, so this particular Sunday morning was no different.
Lisa Scroggin was one of the two young ladies sound asleep.
"Something touched me," she says. "It woke me up."
Once she was awake, she heard her co-worker screaming her name. From upstairs. The fire had been discovered and it was growing. They raced upstairs and attempted to put it out with buckets of water. All of this captured by that camera on the ceilling.
We've all seen surveillance video of fires before. Nothing new here. What was different were some of things the camera very clearly picked up when you watched it slowly or in a freeze frame. Nearly two dozen times in a two-hour period, white orbs or flashes fly through the screen. Sometimes left to right. Other times, right to left or top to bottom. No rhyme or reason. Crystal clear in most cases, a little harder to see in others, but they were there.
Mr. Tuten had no explanation for these "shapes" captured on that video. He wanted to know if I had one. I did not. I don't do ghosts. I'm the food guy.
I did ask Mr. Tuten for a copy of this video and sent it to a friend of mine in Florida who has two decades of experience with these types of things. He has operated regular ghost tours in Orlando, St. Augustine and New Orleans and has done paranormal investigations in half a dozen other places around the country. If there was an explanation, he'd certainly offer one.
The first question he asked me about was the presence of air conditioning vents. He was concerned these could have been pieces of paper flying around the room in the face of a fire. He had other questions for me, all of which I took back to Tondee's Tavern to verify. No interfering air vents. Nothing that would explain what those shapes captured on video were.
Ultimately, the question for my friend was "Are those ghosts?"
"They could be but we can't say for sure," he said. "I can say that we can't discount anything paranormal as an explanation for what they are."
That's really all I needed to hear.
Employees at Tondee's have told me that they've had people come through and tell them all kinds of stories of things that happened in that building once upon a time. There are stories of slave holdings downstairs, still other stories of a child who lives in the lower level at Tondee's Tavern and stays behind the stairs. Several ghost tours in Savannah make regular stops at Tondee's already.
You combine that with a piece of video that, at the very least, makes you wonder and you've got some visual evidence and quite a story to tell.
You can see an edited, narrated version of that video at www.eatitandlikeit.com.
Are they ghosts? No clue. Am I prepared to say they are not? Not at all. But I am adding what happened at Tondee's Tavern to my list of stories I've been told over the years in Savannah that have no explanation.
Take a look at that video, and decide for yourself.
See you on TV.
