Everything was just wonderful. Our welcome, room, location and breakfast. Greta was so pleasant and helpful.
The office and catering staff were great. Very obliging and friendly to us and ready to help us with practical matters - including ringing for taxis.
There was some road noise in the evenings with frequent sirens from emergency vehicles, unfortunately. However, we would stay there again because all the pros outweighed the cons by a long way.
Great location easy walk to centre. Good bathroom and bed.
The staff was very personable and helpful. The house is wonderful. breakfast was nice.
Getting luggage up and down the stairs.
The staff were very welcoming, beautiful,individual rooms. Attention to detail on presentation. Lovely gardens , and perfect location for getting into the old city.
Lovely bathroom but spoiled by an inadequate shower screen , making it impossible to avoid soaking the floor.
Very helpful staff Bike hire was great value and a lovely experience Nothing close but everything within 10 minutes
Should have confirmed arrival as no one on desk at 13.00, so a maid let us in locked door ( in the rain)
The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had to leave a day earlier, and they made every effort to rent our room so that we would not have a loss.
Greta (the landlady?) was very welcoming. Breakfast in the garden, ability to make a cuppa in the front room during the day. Proximity to the walled city
Staff, location, good breakfast, comfortable beds
Road noise
The staff were really nice. It was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was nice. Value for money.
A bit disappointed with the location - on a pretty busy main road outside the city walls. But that was mainly because I had walked through the very pretty old part of town to get from the train station to the b&b.
Clean and roomy. Lots of space. Very friendly staff and a nice breakfast spread. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Free parking!
No soap was provided for the shower.
Beautiful villa inside and out. Wonderful spacious room with a big bathroom. Perfect location, just a few steps from the city walls. Free parking. Recommend to rent bikes there (cheaper than renting in the city) and spend a day bicycling around the town and the city walls. Lovely garden where the breakfast is served and where you can relax during the day. Greta is very kind and helpfull, she even surprised us with champagne and strawberries on our arrival. Loved staying there!
Absolutely nothing!
A warm welcome with refreshments on arrival in the garden and helpfulness throughout our stay. Convenient for the town, comfy and spacious rooms. The beds were a good size and we slept well.
Good service. Afternoon tea available in the garden. Good position for walking into town.
Noise from busy road can be heard in bedrooms at side of the property. Rooms at the back overlooking garden quieter.
Great location with parking. Helpful pleasant staff. Good sized room in a nice building.
Beds a bit firm and pillows solid!
Location is OK, next to Lucca's citywall... but also next to a main road (with significant traffic), so make sure you get a room with the windows to the back garden. Private parking lots are available in the backyard. Charming interior.
Not so much customer oriented staff, fixed checkin time from 3pm to 7pm, earlier checkin is not an option :( Breakfast starts 8:30 on sharp, if you late then you can expect to have only the leftovers. Coffee!!! Seriously?!?! Italy is a country where you would expect a variety of fresh coffees (espresso, latte machiatto, capuccino, etc...), but here we got some lean, pre-made something from a thermos. Lack of soundproofing, so you can follow what's happening in the neighbour rooms and on the coridor.
Staff very helpful Convenient location just outside city walls
Breafast served very late (8:30) Ring road is continually noisy
Lovely property, arty and lovely staff
The sign outside could be more prominent for drivers
rooms friendly
There eas a shock entering the room. We never thought the price we paid would buy that kind of room
The accommodation at Villa Agnese was very convenient to the walked city of Lucca. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the staff vegy helpful
Absolutely everything!!! We stayed for 2 nights before travelling to a Villa for our daughters wedding and it was a perfect beginning to a truly wonderful stay in Italy. Loved the 'themed' rooms, We were in the 'Patisserie' room and our son had the 'Musica' room. The rooms were spotlessly clean & very comfortable. Breakfast was wonderful and as the weather was lovely breakfast was served out in the garden which was just lovely. Fantastic location, literally straight across the road was an entrance into Lucca. Wonderful helpful friendly staff.
location and rooms breakfast Greta's attempts to put right a problem with the booking
that we had a problem with the booking
Very attractive hotel with great access to the town through the walls. Large comfortable room. Good breakfast in the garden. Highly recommended.
Air con a bit noisy, but this is very minor

Youth Dew by Estee Lauder is a lovely floral scent that is as sweet on a 21 year old as someone 40 years older. Only a little goes a long way, so the bottle will last a long time. I recycle through this fragrance regularly. I love Flowerbomb and old fashioned Tea Rose. If you are a girly-girl and like florals, this is the scent for you!
July 16, 2014
I was a new flight attendent working on Christmas and one of the pilots gave each of the 5 girls a bottle of Youth Dew as a gift. I was 20 and have worn it for over 40 years now. It is wonderful and I always receive compliments. More importantly it makes me feel "dressed up". Love the smell, always have, always will.
July 09, 2014
Written by Barbie
Youth Dew is flowery AND spicy. It also has undertones of musk. It is strong and intense and it makes me feel HAPPY! My mother wore it years ago and I have been wearing it for years. I considerate it my signature scent. It is particularly appropriate to colder months/weather in my opinion.
June 26, 2014
Written by Dorothy C.
Youth Dew is a classic perfume that spells elegance and sophistication for anyone who wears it! I have loved it since I "borrowed" my mother's at the age of 17! A timelees scent that never goes out of style, it leaves a mesmerizing whiff of fragrance in your wake.....

Idaho company making pork-laced bullets
Houston — The Houston Chronicle is reporting; an Idaho company is making pork-laced bullets in order to combat Islamic terrorists.
The Jihawg ammo is coated in pork-infused paint and the belief is that those shot with the bullets would be unclean and not be able to get into heaven.

Sony SRS GU10 iP / iPod/iPhone Speaker Dock
Posted: 17/12/2010
After reading many positive reviews and having experience with other Sony sound systems I ordered the above speaker dock.
What a mistake ! The sound has too much base and mid range which it delivers in a semi asphyxiated way , even using the (limited) EQ on the Ipod doesn't improve the sound balance much.
Listen to it before buying !

Mobile SMS fundraiser to be launched for GERD
Addis Ababa, 18 August 2014 (WIC) - A mobile SMS lottery is to be launched shortly to rally the general public behind the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) project.
The National Council for Coordination of Public Participation for Construction of GERD made the announcement on Saturday.
According to Zadig Abraha, Director General for Office of the National Council, big prizes have already been secured from various donors and readied for the would-be lottery winners.
Fana Broadcasting Corporate and Ethio Telecom for their part took the initiative to offer the service free of charge.
To this end, an agreement was signed on Wednesday between the Council and Fana Broadcasting Corporate.
All the money to be collected from the fundraiser would solely be used for the GERD project, Zadig said, adding, all mobile user Ethiopians are expected to participate.
The SMS fundraiser is not a substitute to the GERD saving bonds, he said, and called on the public to keep on supporting the project in any every possible way.
The SMS fundraiser lasts for six months and the number to be used for the purpose is 8100.
First to third winners of the mobile SMS draw shall receive a well equipped modern house, a modern automobile, and a motorbike, respectively.

"This card was perfect for the image I was wanting to use. The finished card was beautiful. The image and quality of paper superb. They were also sent to me immediately. I used the option of the rectangular instead of square envelopes so my postage costs would not go up. The envelope was made to fit the card without sliding. I'm very happy with my cards and everyone who has seen them has been very impressed! Thank you tiny prints!!"
"The cards and paper quality are top notch. I would have liked to have been able to resize some of the preform text on the front of the card. I know there was a problem with the server at Tiny Prints, but it delayed the completion of my card and wasted a tremendous, tremendous amount of my time. Other than that, they always provide an outstanding product and supurb customer service."
"Great quality paper, I always pay for the extra thick shimmer and am never disappointed! Had to enlarge the font on inside of card, it looked too small all by itself on an almost blank page."
"Very pleased with the quality of the design. Didn't LOVE the design, but there were not many options available for 1-pictured folding cards so had to default to this one. That being said, the quality of the picture was very good and the turnaround time even better. Was worried I would not get these xmas/wedding thank you cards out in time but they came very quickly. Would definitely recommend for someone looking to send both a picture a note."
"Loved the snowflake overlays and the colors, and especially appreciated the option to customize my wording on the front of the card. I searched for days to find a template that would fit my picture, but allow me to change the words. My finished card gets RAVE comments from our friends... BEST CARD we have EVER sent out!! THANK YOU!!!"

Want Access to Foreign Small-Caps? Schwab, E-Trade Widen Your Options
Correction: This article removes the commission in the eighth paragraph, which previously stated a dollar amount.
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Recently I've written on how investors should check out the London Stock Exchange. With a record bull market for the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DIA) and the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (SPY), savvy investors should be looking to hedge their bets. I suggest looking to foreign small caps.
So how can investors make this jump?
One easy way is with a Charles Schwab (SCHW) Global Account, which makes foreign transactions as simple as buying and selling blue chips on the Dow or S&P 500.When dealing with Charles Schwab, forget whatever you saw on "Boiler Room" or "The Wolf of Wall Street." Radient Pharma: RIP Provectus Admits Cash Running Low, Financing Coming Soon Here's What It Looks Like Inside Tesla's Massive Factory Here's What It's Like to Work for Elon Musk Schwab is set up to help, not hose, investors on any financial exchange. The Schwab Global Account offers online access to 12 foreign markets in real-time trading with the local currencies. For the large-cap stocks on the London Stock Exchange, American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) can be purchased. But for promising small caps like American (BOOM:London), called the "Youtube of Radio" due to its social media presence, and Litebulb (LBB:London), a consumer products company selling items in over 30 countries, transactions must go through the London Stock Exchange. After opening an account, investors deposit U.S. dollars. The investor has the option of converting to pounds (or another foreign currency) immediately or when ready to trade. To maintain maximum flexibility, it is best to keep the account in U.S. dollars. Each time a conversion to a foreign currency takes place, a fee is charged. It is always best to minimize trading costs, so keeping Greenbacks in the account until ready to trade is the most prudent way to proceed. In terms of expenses, commissions are higher for the London Stock Exchange than for U.S. exchanges (commissions vary by market with Schwab). But that is balanced out with the higher volume. More liquidity leads to better execution. That should result in better pricing. Any stock should always have more volume on its home market exchange. That facilitates transactions more to the benefit of the investor, not the exchange. The British economy is also more conducive to small cap stocks succeeding. Robert Proctor, CEO of Audioboom (BOOM:London), pointed out that former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was the most recent to describe England as, "a nation of shopkeepers." Both Napoleon and Adam Smith used that phrase too to make a point about the mercantile spirit of Great Britain. There's truth in the adage, and that leads to many appealing small caps available.

The Gay Agenda
By Joseph Hassan
Saturday, October 18: Tune in to Saturday Night Live tonight for two reasons: First, to catch a comedic replay of the Presidential Debate, which if you followed the rules, you already watched on Wednesday. Side note: Let's hope Tina Fey recreates VP nominee Sarah Palin's hockey-puck photo op in Philadelphia last weekend. Reason number two: Rugged heartthrob Josh Brolin hosts the show. Brolin stars in the movie W, directed by Oliver Stone, which chronicles the life and presidency of George W. Bush (this should be good) and opened nationwide Friday. Saturday Night Live airs at 11:30 PM EST on NBC.
Sunday, October 19: End your weekend by participating in AIDS Walk Los Angeles. The event benefits AIDS Project Los Angeles and other AIDS service organizations throughout Los Angeles County. Take part in an inspiring day that begins and ends in West Hollywood Park to remember those lost to the epidemic, and to assist Angelinos living with and affected by HIV/AIDS.

SF20: Don't Replace Trans Fats with Palm Oil
Tell the Snack Food 20: Don't Replace Trans Fats with Conflict Palm Oil
Expansion of palm oil plantations into Indonesia's and Malaysia's rainforests is causing massive climate disruption and pushing wild orangutans to the brink of extinction. We have reached The Last Stand of the Orangutan—but it's not too late.
Take action now to call on the Snack Food 20—companies that control some of the best-known snack food brands in the world—to remove Conflict Palm Oil tied to rainforest destruction and orangutan extinction from their products. These companies rely on our trust as consumers. If enough of us speak up, the Snack Food 20 will have to change the way they do business.
Only 60,600 orangutans remain in the wilds of Sumatra and Borneo. That's why we're organizing 60,600 humans to stand up for them by calling on PepsiCo and the other Snack Food 20 companies to cut Conflict Palm Oil, not rainforests. Will you stand for the orangutans and the climate today?

text: The real problem is that political speech is protected as an opinion, so a corporation can spread any amount of lies about a candidate that they want. The PAC rules banned "swiftboating" after the 2004 election but this will open the flood gates and legitimize dirty politics. People will not know what is true and what isn't. It's already really hard to know.

PEORIA, Ill. (AP) -- A seventh person has died from injuries from the recent tornadoes in Illinois.
Peoria County Coroner Johnna Ingersoll says 82-year-old Rosamund Allison of the north-central Illinois community of Washington died Thursday at a Peoria hospital.
Relatives told reporters she'd been injured when winds pulled her from her home and dropped debris on her.
The National Weather Service says two dozen tornadoes hit the state on Nov. 17. More than 2,400 homes were damaged or destroyed. The tornado that hit the community of Washington stayed on the ground for more than 46 miles.

Speeding law to be tightened up
New proposals will see motorists losing their licence after only two speeding offences, the government will announce today.
The new system would modify the standard fixed-penalty warning of a fine and three penalty points, to give drivers going extensively over the limit six penalty points.
"Drink driving is still claiming far too many lives," Lib Dem shadow transport secretary, Norman Baker said.
"The government needs to realise a Christmas campaign is just not enough and that instead we need a real clamp down on drink and drug driving."
Opinion Former News
Opinion Former Video
'We should have been doing this 10 years ago - we need to get the ball rolling'
'The more capacity that can go into the London area will quite simply add to our business'
'All of our customers are international and we need those transport links to be as efficient and effective as possible'
'Having direct, easy links makes doing business globally much more attractive'
'Because key gateways have been capacity constrained, a lot of freighter services now terminate in mainland Europe'
Having 12 or more points on a licence is grounds for having a licence revoked.
Under the current system only a court can impose a penalty of more than three points for a speeding offence.
The government is also expected to say it has reversed plans to lower the drink-driving limit, keeping it as 80mg of alcohol to 100ml blood, one of the highest limits in Europe.
"Britain has the highest drink drive limit in the EU," said Mr Baker.
"Rather than embark on another consultation, the government needs to take this opportunity to lower it."
Currently 1.1 million drivers are on the verge of licence disqualification having six or more points on their licence.
The proposals will be under consultation for the next couple of months.

One unfortunate aspect of the Tucson tragedy is a reawakening of the right of non-law enforcement residents of Arizona to carry concealed weapons without regard to any training, permitting, or, most importantly, the carrier's mental health.
It is beyond question that those among us who insist upon carrying a concealed weapon are paranoid and/or suffer from delusions of grandeur. They see criminals in every checkout line, they spend inordinate amounts of time worrying about home invasions, they think every pedestrian is a car-jacker. Worse, they envision themselves as heroes, quickly gunning down a criminal who dared commit a crime within their view, acting as judge, jury and executioner. They are eager for the adoration that befalls a genuine hero. They thrive on the possibility of this attention.
Unfortunately, 99.9 percent of them are just sick individuals whom we can only hope never decide to pull out their weapons and start blasting away.
Edward F. Murphy, MESA

I do not see anything wrong with the name Aidan and it is definitely not terrible. I also really like Caden. I think the general population does not take issue of the "aden" names, it is mostly people on baby name forums. People on baby name forums can be very vocal about their opinions and for the most part I appreciate these opinions. The issue is some seem to think their opinions are rules, rules that everyone should follow. There are some very nice "aden" names. If you love Aidan, use Aidan. Aidan is a strong, handsome name.Maebry Eloise o Emilia Sunday o Annabel Birdie

It's totally a personal choice. Aiden/Aidan is a great name. That's why so many parents pick it. I was born toward the beginning of the Caitlin fad and being a Caitie/Caitlin in a sea of Kate/Katie/Catherine/Kathleen/Katelyns felt like having ALL those girls with such similar names was just another way I was forgettable. Perhaps I would see Aidan(my older brother's name) as more usable if it weren't also accompanied by a team of Braden/Caden/Hayden/Jadens. In my mom's defense, she found the name Caitlin in a baby book and had never heard the name on anyone before. How could she have known millions of other parents would see the same name and think the same thing? I know there was a time when every girl was named Margaret, Mary or Elizabeth so why should it matter? It shouldn't really... but I know that for me, being named as part of a fad has made me pay special attention to name trends and adjust my list accordingly.Aunt to Morgan Ellen, Jason Lee, Stana Marie, Shanna Lynn, and Eva Jean

Location & area
To the tourist, who for the first time arrives in Stresa, is offered a breathless sight. At the beginning a superb window of the lake front, delineated with lines of palm trees, with flourishing gardens and facades of majestic hotels. Then, turning to look at the lake, enchanted, as if emerged from the same waters the spectacular Borromean Islands (Isola Bella, Isola Madre and Isola dei Pescatori). It is enough the splendour of these visions to make one understand how Stresa has been able to become one of the maximum meetings of international tourism. The town, already at the middle half of the 19th century was the most elegant place to stay, the most visited by the international upper middle class.Others again are the reasons of so much fame and prestige. Here art and nature are mixed together in a way that one respects the other, here the hospitality is to boast to generation and the cultural initiative, that happens in the course of the year, they are the necessary corollary of it. Symbol of the vitality of Stresa is the animated Plaza of the wharf, the vast and tree lined Piazza Marconi.Here the neo-classic parish of Sant'Ambrogio faces the square. To the right of the church there is the famous Villa Ducale of the year 1770, also this is in neo-classic style. The notoriety derives from it having been the residence of the philosopher Antonio Rosmini, whom here also entertained Alessandro Manzoni. Now the villa is an active Centre of "Studi Rosminiani". Nearby, famous to the international congressmen, one can find the modern and well equipped Palace of Congresses. Another destination of notable tourist flow is Villa Pallavicino of the 19th century. The interest for which is completely naturalistic, in that the large blooming park is rich in secular trees and has been transformed in an original zoological garden, where various species of animals live, including exotic animals like ostriches and kangaroos.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Analysis: Gordon has been disappointing for the owners who stashed him during his suspension, recording 20 catches for 258 yards and no touchdowns in four games since returning.
|Nov. 24 9:17 AM PT10:17 AM MT11:17 AM CT12:17 PM ET17:17 GMT1:17 AM 北京时间10:17 AM MST12:17 PM EST11:17 AM CT21:17 UAE12:17 ET15:17 - Gordon had eight receptions for 120 yards in his season debut Sunday.
Analysis: Gordon didn't waste any time getting involved, but he didn't find the end zone and is still catching passes from the inconsistent Brian Hoyer.
|Nov. 22 3:11 PM PT4:11 PM MT5:11 PM CT6:11 PM ET23:11 GMT7:11 AM 北京时间4:11 PM MST6:11 PM EST5:11 PM CT3:11 UAE (+1)18:11 ET21:11 - The Browns activated Gordon, clearing the way for him to make his season debut on Sunday in Atlanta.
Analysis: Cleveland officially activated the All-Pro from the exempt/commissioner permission list Saturday and waived backup outside linebacker Keith Pough. The roster move with Gordon was a formality after he was reinstated earlier in the week after serving a 10-game league suspension for violating the drug policy. He'll be on the field at the Georgia Dome when the Browns (6-4) take on the Falcons (4-6). Gordon led the NFL with 1,646 yards receiving in just 14 games last year.
|Nov. 13 2:33 PM PT3:33 PM MT4:33 PM CT5:33 PM ET22:33 GMT6:33 AM 北京时间3:33 PM MST5:33 PM EST4:33 PM CT2:33 UAE (+1)17:33 ET20:33 - Gordon is practicing for the first time since his 10-game suspension ended. Gordon, who led the league with 1,646 yards receiving last season, worked out with his teammates Wednesday and is expected to play Sunday in Atlanta.
Analysis: Coach Mike Pettine said the plan is to bring Gordon along slowly this week. Pettine said there's a danger in rushing Gordon back. Pettine met with Gordon before the team's pre-practice walk-through and said the 23-year-old is "very excited to be out there. He's ready to go."
|Sep. 19 11:42 AM PT12:42 PM MT1:42 PM CT2:42 PM ET18:42 GMT2:42 AM 北京时间11:42 AM MST1:42 PM EST1:42 PM CT22:42 UAE14:42 ET17:42 - Gordon has been reinstated into the NFL and had his one-year suspension reduced to 10 games after the league announced changes to its drug policy.
Analysis: The league and Players' Association reached an agreement on Friday on revisions to the substance-abuse program. Earlier this week, they announced changes on performance-enhancing drugs. Gordon, who has at least four drug violations, has already served two games of the suspension. He will be eligible to play Nov. 23 when the Browns visit Atlanta.
|Sep. 16 10:54 AM PT11:54 AM MT12:54 PM CT1:54 PM ET17:54 GMT1:54 AM 北京时间10:54 AM MST12:54 PM EST12:54 PM CT21:54 UAE13:54 ET16:54 - A prosecutor says Cleveland Browns receiver Josh Gordon will receive probation and undergo a substance-abuse assessment after pleading guilty to a drunken-driving charge in North Carolina.
Analysis: Acting Wake County district attorney Ned Mangum says Gordon received a 60-day suspended jail sentence and one year of unsupervised probation Tuesday.
|Aug. 28 10:03 AM PT11:03 AM MT12:03 PM CT1:03 PM ET17:03 GMT1:03 AM 北京时间10:03 AM MST12:03 PM EST12:03 PM CT21:03 UAE13:03 ET16:03 - A person familiar with Josh Gordon's situation says the suspended wide receiver wants to play in the Canadian Football League, but is prohibited from doing so.
Analysis: Under CFL rules, a player suspended by the NFL and under contract is not eligible to play in Canada. But of the Cleveland Browns released Gordon, he would be able to play elsewhere.
|Aug. 27 9:05 AM PT10:05 AM MT11:05 AM CT12:05 PM ET16:05 GMT12:05 AM 北京时间9:05 AM MST11:05 AM EST11:05 AM CT20:05 UAE12:05 ET15:05 - It appears Gordon, a repeat drug offender who was banned for a year for another failed test for marijuana, will play with the Browns at some point this season. Under provisions of the new drug policy the union reps approved, Gordon's suspension likely would be cut to 10 games.
Analysis: Friday's vote by player representatives to the union to implement testing for human growth hormone for the 2014 NFL season has cleared the way for Gordon to have his suspension reduced. The union and league agreed to significantly increase the threshold for positive marijuana tests. Under provisions of the new drug policy, Gordon's suspension likely will be cut to 10 games.
|Aug. 26 7:59 AM PT8:59 AM MT9:59 AM CT10:59 AM ET14:59 GMT10:59 PM 北京时间7:59 AM MST9:59 AM EST9:59 AM CT18:59 UAE10:59 ET13:59 - The attorney for Josh Gordon says the Cleveland Browns receiver's hearing on a drunken-driving charge in North Carolina has been rescheduled for November.
Analysis: Gordon was due to appear in Wake County court Tuesday on charges of driving while impaired and speeding. Attorney Trey Fitzhugh says Gordon had a waiver to miss the pretrial appearance and the case is continued until Nov. 18.
|Aug. 24 3:18 PM PT4:18 PM MT5:18 PM CT6:18 PM ET22:18 GMT6:18 AM 北京时间3:18 PM MST5:18 PM EST5:18 PM CT2:18 UAE (+1)18:18 ET21:18 - Cleveland coach Mike Pettine says Josh Gordon did not play in the Browns' last exhibition game because the team is preparing to be without the All-Pro wide receiver for at least part of the season. Gordon is waiting to hear from the NFL regarding his appeal of a possible yearlong suspension for again violating the league's substance-abuse program.
Analysis: Gordon has been practicing and playing for weeks amid uncertainty about his career. Asked on Sunday why Gordon did not play in Saturday night's 33-14 loss to St. Louis, Pettine said: "We're fairly certain that we're not going to have him for a minimum of some part of the year. We wanted to make sure that we were getting repetitions with the guys that are going to be out there early."
|Aug. 4 7:40 AM PT8:40 AM MT9:40 AM CT10:40 AM ET14:40 GMT10:40 PM 北京时间7:40 AM MST9:40 AM EST9:40 AM CT18:40 UAE10:40 ET13:40 - Gordon has returned to practice while his appeal hearing with the NFL enters a second day in New York. Gordon was back on the field with his teammates Monday after missing two days of practice last week and Saturday's scrimmage in Akron.

Gordon, who led the NFL with yards receiving last season, fired the first verbal volley last week when he went on ESPN and discussed Irving's problems this season with teammate Dion Waiters. Irving then didn't waste any time in shooting back.
Analysis: Irving said he has spoken to Gordon about the comments. "I just let him know that the whole situation kind of got blown out of proportion," Irving said. "There was no disrespect on my end to him or anything he does. I have the utmost respect for him."
