Historical Traveler Reviews ClubHotel Riu Negril
Definatly a 5* resort!!!!
Just returned from the Riu Negril yesterday (Aug 14-21). All the previous reviews were exactly right. The grounds were beautiful!! We arrived in the pm and the staff were all organized ready and set us up right away...no long wait and annoyance. Rooms were very nice...we had a standard room..I can only imagine the ocean views.
FOOD..AMAZING....im a picky eater so tend to not to expect much....but everything was so delicious I looked foward to eating every meal!! A la carts were delicious as well..I prefered Sir Andrews....excelent food and service. Dinner buffet my favorite - mexican theme night better then was in Mexico! Highly recomend the fresh fruit smoothies in morning...yummy!! HELPFULL HINT - we were unaware that the a la cartes are booked daily for that day and you can book as many times as you like...other resorts I stayed at you have to book them for the week and for just 1 time. Its nIce b/c you can go again and again but buffets were so good that there was no need other than once. They start booking the a la carts at 8 am in front of the brunch buffet..line up minimal and quick.
STAFF-wonderful!! I found we tipped much more than usual b/c of this so bring a lot of 1$. From morning to night they ask you how you meal and trip was - staff always wanting to talk and please you - my opinion service was beyond 5*. Try to sit near Andre in the buffet - sweet young man, very pleasant!
BEACH - 6/10. Im a beach person so in my opinion, it's not up to par for the resort or from what I expected from Negril, but for the price we-paid I cant complain. There is this sludge that makes the sand in the ocean sticky-like and murky. There are workers all day scooping this stuff out and they section off their work areas -which is good. There are better sections so look for those. It's still decent - just not impressive. Beach was nice - big stretch, alwasy chairs available at any time -no getting up early to reserve. Same at pool - but we spent minimal time there b/c we're beach people -but pools were very nice. We ventured to the Riu Tropical beach everyday and the ocean and beach was much better, you get a lot more sand on the beach and their water is great which is funny b/c its all in the same bay. But b/c Riu Negril is so immpressive - having to walk over to Tropical Bay wasnt bad - and that resort isnt as nice.
ENTERTAINMENT - Staff fun...shows terrible. Except for the Steel Band - dont miss that. I always enjoy the shows but there are chessy and lack creativity in my opinion....
SUGGESTIONS - If you are requesting or expecting a King size bed, I would strongly suggest bringing a King size fitted sheet - the use a flat sheet that just covers the top of the mattress so at night, its shifting around and you find yourself directly on the mattress. Also - bring an umbrella. It rained every afternoon and the hotel does have umbrellas, but if you dont get there right away - they are all gone. Its just easiest to have your own. Also - all the rooms are to one side the hotel ammenties so try to get building 1 or 2 to avoid long walks. We had building 2 so had no problem -heard some in building 4 say it was a pain. Lastly, Luigi's restaurant is open from after the buffet until morning for pizza and pasta but the 2 times we went they had no food and then only 2 types of pasta, no pizza - so I wouldnt suggest missing dinner to eat there as you may not always have luck. But again - buffet will stuff you happily.
All and all - loved the resort, loved Jamaica and would love to go back to Riu Negril again......
5-Star Look 2-star Service
My friend and I just returned from this resort on August 15, 2004. Anyone from Toronto arriving by Skyservice s/b aware that the flight arrives in Mobay around 7:30 p.m. (if it leaves on time). After going through customs and finalizing the bus situation with Sunquest the 1.5 hour ride to Negril you'll be getting there around 9:30 p.m. The buffet restaurant closes at 10 p.m. - so you better make a mad dash if you want to get something to eat other than pizza (that restaurant's open 24 hours). Anyhow I have to agree with another review about the Front Desk Mgmt - they are appalling. By the end of my week there, I made sure that the Asst. Gen'l Manager was aware of the hotel's faux pas. To describe the chaos at Front Desk would be equal to entering a lovely home and observing what looks like a whirlwind of chaos. The so-called managers at Front Desk - Melkis, Franklin etc. do not know how to communicate effectively or with proper English. That can be very frustrating when you're a tourist staying at a resort. Note: English is not a 1st language at this resort - Spanish, Italian, German all take priority. So it sucks to be Canadian, American or British. You not only have to awaken at an ungodly hour just to get into one of their a la carte restaurants, another added feature is you have to make a deposit of $10 U.S. to obtain and Iron & Ironing Board for your room (if they have any available that is). Don't worry you get it back b4 you leave. If you are enquiring about any tours, taxi services etc. the information provided will be different from each person at front desk. Left and right hand definitely not in sync. Check-out!!! This is very rigid (12 noon indeed). Any extension would be like pulling teeth. Make sure you double check your phone bill b4 you leave. My phone bill was reduced to $26 U.S. from a whopping $78 U.S. after I kicked up a stink. The phone will be turned off in your room on the day you are departing and I do mean by 6 a.m. if not earlier - so if you need to make a call back home to ie. pick-up arrangements better do that the day b4. So while the architecture is a definite 5/5 - the service is about a 2/5. For 1st time visitors like myself - if you wanna go to Jamaica and experience the history and culture - this resort is definitely not the place to be. However, if you liked to experience the warmth of the Caribbean sun, sand and palm trees while capturing the European old world charm of say Spain - go there. The old saying of when in Rome do as the Romans do - does not apply here. When in Riu Negril do as the Spaniards do. Final note: For those who have stayed at other Riu Resorts and have ventured to a nearby sister resort - don't even consider going to the sister resort in Negril - Riu Tropical...while you can shop at their duty free store - you will be duly kicked off their property. We certainly were!
Beautiful, Clean, Fun and Underpriced!
My family of four just returned from our trip (July 31-Aug.7) to Club Hotel Riu Negril. We travel every year to different Caribbean islands and 4+ star resorts, but this was the best. Our arrival was not so bad, the bus ride was 1 hour and 15 mins. on a smooth pathed road from Montego Bay Airport. We got the the resort by 9:30pm, and check-in was expedient. We ate pizza at Luigi's that night. I sent the resort an email asking for a room close by the pool, amenities and with a high nice view of ocean, and they accomodated every request (even though I only paid for a standard room). The rooms were bright, granite floors, large bathrooms with double sinks and a bar area with liquor dispensor and well stocked mini-bar. There are no coffee makers in the rooms. The resort is new, extremely clean, beautiful grounds with esthetically pleasing roman/greco architecture amongst lush gardens and palm trees.
The staff were excellent, and accomodated every request we had. The bar drinks are fantastic (try Blue Ocean and Miami Vice). Tipping was not required, but I brought a lot of $1 bills for most of the bar-tenders, maids or waiting staff that helped us (these people work long hard days for only $45US/wk., a few extra dollars really helps).
The beach is long and not as bad as some of the reviewers mentioned. I would recommend the 7 minute walk to the Tropical Bay anyway (Braids for women are cheaper along that stretch, and you can see some of the freindly locals). The water gets nicer the closer you get to that resort. Our Resort was bigger, cleaner, better pools (don't understand why Tropical Bay was more expensive?).
There are lots of Europeans staying at the resort, just like anywhere else, all very friendly. There are so many lounge chairs, reserving them early is not permitted nor required. We never had problems getting poolside or beachside loungers.
Resteraunt food was excellent. I could not believe how much meat they had at the buffet's! Lamb chops, Beef, Pork Roast and Turkey and Chicken daily. Lot's of healthy choices amongst the variety of other foods. Breakfasts were grand and the kids ate well. You have to line up before 7am for the A la Carte restaraunts. Sir Andrews was fancy and food was good. The Steak House had excellent Rib-eye steaks, but it is out-door (hot). We preferred the buffet after trying these out (more variety for the family). It is a very elegant dining room anyways.
The animation staff was very friendly and did their best to get us all involved in games during the day. The nightly entertainment was a little lame, but the Steel Band night is not to be missed! You may wish to bring mosquito repellent for evenings.
I do not recommend the Duty Free Shopping and Rick's Cafe trip. Duty free shopping was much cheaper at the airport before leaving (for liquor and other things - lots of better shops at the airport). Besides the trip is too long (5 hrs. in all). Rick's cafe is awesome, but I'd recommend the Catamaran ride instead, it is shorter and you can swim too.
In all, this was the best resort my family has stayed at. Definately a real 5-star and well underpriced for what you get (perhaps because it is still new). We drove past Couples, Sandals Negril, Beaches and this was by far a brighter nicer place to stay. We would definately return on a future trip. Have no worries and book Club Hotel Riu Negril - Yeah Mon!
An amazing resort!
My boyfriend and I went to the Riu Negril at the end of May 2004. It was fabulous. We had a beautiful room with a garden/ocean view. The food was amazing and there was food everywhere all the time. You were never hungry, that's for sure. The bar in your room was always stocked up and the service was really good. The ameniteis were great and the rooms were very clean and spacious.
My only disappointment was the beach. The beach was nice but the ocean was not clean, very mirky. The good thing about the hotel was that the Riu Tropical was was a 5 minute walk down the beach and their ocean was clean and beauriful. Another bonus was that you could eat at the Riu Tropical's restaurants and grab drinks from their bar. The hotel tells you that you can't use the Riu Tropical facilites but you can. This is the 2nd Riu resort I have stayed in and both times I was very impressed.
This is a great resort!
New & very nice
My husband and I (we are in our mid-20s) had a great time at the Riu Negril - July 21-28, 2004. The hotel is new and in beautiful condition. The staff are working hard, constantly cleaning and working on the beach, etc. They were all friendly and very helpful.
I would definitely recommend this hotel. We got a great price, so that made it even better.
We had no problems with the staff or any hotel policies. Our plane to go home left late in the day, but there were shower rooms available and a locked room to store luggage, so we were able to swim and stay on the beach long after checkout.
You can see the ocean from pretty much every room - they all have balconies or a terrace. There is a fridge in each room with bottles of beer, pop, and water, as well as a mini-bar with rum, vodka, brandy, and gin. The rooms are nice - you control the A/C, there is also a ceiling fan.
The pools are fine, there are two, one with a swim up bar, they were a little crowded during the middle of the day though.
Every night there are shows/musicals, these were a little cheesy, but sit near the bar, have a drink or two, and they are plenty entertaining. The bars have a good selection - and the mango daiquiris are great!
The steakhouse was great, the international gourmet restaurant was okay, and the buffets were good too. Breakfast at the Green Island is wonderful - there is a fresh smoothie/juice bar, and tons of selections. You need to make reservations at 7 am for the steakhouse and gourmet restuarant, but we found we could make them for two nights in a row, so we didn't have to get up every day.
The Scuba Caribe snorkel trip was fun, bring some bread with, and dozens of fish will come eat out of your hand. Their fishing trip however, was a disappointment - they told us they catch 20 most days, but we only caught 4 smaller fish the day we were out - not worth the money.
Everyday it rained in the afternoon for an hour or two, but that was sort of nice, because it cooled down for the evenings.
The beach is kept very neat. There's a good mix of shade and sun, and there are always lounge chairs available. The water is a little cloudy, but they were always working on it.
Lots of Europeans, who often are topless on the beach, or in little Speedos.. so just a warning if you're not used to that.
Overall, really nice resort, helpful staff, good times.
Great Place, BUT........
The RIU was terrific, the management was appalling. If you have a late flight out of Jamaica, be prepared to be kicked out. Check out is not one minute past Noon, or $100US. Don't expect any sympathy from the front desk manager, Melcous.
Truly the resort and the staff were terrific. The food was amazing. The beach needs work, and they were working on it everyday. Don't expect to eat at one of the a la carte restaurants; you have to line up at 6:00am to get a reservation. The only shortcoming was the management's lack of accountability and direction. Enjoy this very under priced resort while it lasts.
Awesome Vacation!
Stayed the week of 5/21 - 5/28. This resort was awesome. The BEST all-inclusive we have ever stayed at. The food options with the buffet were so extensive (and delicious), we didn't even want to try either of the reservation restaurants. Rooms were nice with stocked beer, soft drinks, and mixers as well as 3-4 liquors for your enjoyment. Staff was extermely firendly and accomodating.
The resort had Red Stripe (and RS Lite), however the only complaint was when those ran out (due to a Jamaican holiday), Real Rock was the only beer available. That was not good stuff. Walked down the beach to the Riu Tropical Bay and was definitely glad that we made the decision to stay at this RIU.
Loved the Club
This is a new resort. We were there June 14-21, 2004. The decor was beautiful. The rooms were quite nicely appointed. Each room had a refrigerator with pop and beer and jugs of water. We were greeted in our room by a plate of fresh fruit and a bottle of rum. There was a patio with table and chairs and a pullout drying rack. The food is good. The A la Carte restaurants are good but Sir Andrews is the best, especially the fish dishes. You do have privileges at the sister resort-Tropical Bay-. Yes, the beach is good, but the water is murky at the new resort. They were working on it 24/7 while we were there. We walked down the beach to the sister resort and the beach and water is wonderful. So is the snorkeling. Mayfield Falls is a wonderful side trip. Grab a taxi for $20 for 2 and have 2 stops to go shopping. They will pick you up at the appointed time to take you to the next shopping center. The beds are comfortable and there are plenty of beach loungers. The pools are much larger than the sister resort , but as usual a fight for pool lounges. This is a great resort. Staff was very helpful and friendly. very Kid friendly!! They also do weddings. Saw 2 while we were there! They did a great job. Great resort.
I would go back over and over again!
My husband and I stayed at The Club Hotel Riu, Negril for our first wedding anniversary during the first week of June. Although we were visiting during the rainy season, our trip was fabulous! We ate dinner at the Restaurant Green Island every evening and had snacks during the day at Luigi's Pizzeria. Club Hotel Riu, Negril employs a phenomenal group of individuals and the hotel accomodations were impeccable. We can't wait to go back!

(364 quotes found)
"Deliberate with caution, but act with decision; and yield with graciousness, or oppose with firmness."
"You go for it. All the stops are out. Caution is to the wind, and you're battling with everything you have. That's the real fun of the game."
"There is a courageous wisdom; there is also a false, reptile prudence, the result not of caution but of fear"
"There never seems to be a sign. Caution, yield, stop death is nigh. How many woke that portentous day knowing it would end in the grave. We must all realize that the breath we take could finalize our living days. All should live as if the end is an expected welcomed friend."
"JOY is a deceptive trap; grief is the real preceptor, teaching caution, circumspection, discrimination, detachment, awareness and vigilance."

It's that time of year again when many of us make New Year's resolutions. It's a chance to turn over a new leaf and get a fresh start. Exercise more often, eat healthier, join a book club, take up salsa dancing, learn how to play the piano, or vacuum regularly behind the couch.
This January, I'm seizing the opportunity to be a better parent. This year, I'm going to play more.
Because I want my children to play more.
Let me explain.
If you look at children closely, you'll see that many of them have stopped playing. Many are silently sitting side-by-side on the couch staring at handheld gaming consoles. Others are shooting machine guns at enemy squadrons on the television set. Some of them have their mothers' smartphones and others are surfing cat videos on their fathers' laptops. But only a few of them are playing.
Only a few of them are blowing dandelion tufts, playing hide-and-seek, skipping stones, diving in leaf piles, hurling snowballs, catching fireflies, building makeshift forts, pretending to be cowboys and princesses, creating imaginary worlds in the backyard pile of dirt, or collecting flower petals and small stones to mix a magic potion.

Cell Homesostasis: A Steady State
The survival of living cells greatly depends on their capacity to achieve homeostasis. The ability of a cell to regulate a stable internal environment is accomplished by controlling the movement of materials through the cell membrane. When this delicate balance is lost, the cell can be injured and even die.
In this project, you will study osmosis and determine how placing cells into hypotonic and hypertonic solutions affects osmosis. The rate of water movement through the cell membrane of an egg will be calculated, and factors affecting osmotic and turgor pressure will be studied.
Getting Started
Purpose: To determine the effect of placing a cell into a hypotonic solution (a solution with a high concentration of water as compared to that in the cell).
- baby food jar with small mouth
- distilled water
- raw egg in shell
- metal spoon
- drinking straw (clear or transparent)
- 8-inch (20-cm) candle (or longer)
- matches
CAUTION: Always wash your hands after touching an uncooked egg. It may contain harmful bacteria.
- Fill the baby food jar three-fourths full with distilled water.
- Gently tap the rounded end of the egg's shell with the edge of the spoon.
- Use your fingernails to carefully pull away several small pieces of the eggshell. Note: You want to remove a small section of the shell about the size of the tip of your finger. Be careful not to pierce the thin membrane under the shell.
- On the opposite end of the egg, break a hole in the shell large enough to insert the end of the straw.
- Stand the egg in the jar of water, rounded end down.
- Insert about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of one end of the straw into the hole in the shell and through the cell membrane.
- Light the candle and hold the unlit end.
- Allow the melted wax to drip around the base of the straw until the space between the straw and the eggshell is sealed (see Figure 6.1).
- Allow the egg and attached straw to stand undisturbed overnight.
- Observe any movement of liquid.
A clear, watery liquid moves up the drinking straw.
Cell homeostasis is the ability of a cell to achieve a stable internal environment by regulating the passage of fluids through the cell membrane. Removing the eggshell exposes the semipermeable membrane of the cell (a hen's egg is a single cell). A semipermeable membrane is a membrane through which some substances can pass but others cannot. Water molecules are small enough to move through the membrane, but larger molecules inside the cell are too large to move out of the cell. The movement of water through the membrane is called osmosis.
Osmosis occurs when there is a difference in the concentration of water on either side of the membrane. The water concentration in the jar is 100%. The water concentration inside the egg is less than 100% because of the dissolved fats, proteins, and other materials. Water moves through any cell membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration. Thus, the water in the jar moves through the exposed membrane of the egg and into the egg. As water enters the egg, the volume of fluid increases and the extra molecules are forced up the straw. This force is produced by osmotic pressure (the pressure of water diffusing through the semipermeable membrane). The greater the difference in water concentration on either side of the membrane, the greater the osmotic pressure.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
If I only had one word to describe this tool, it would be "Supreme".
For what it's worth, I am a professional carpenter. My reviews are mostly geared toward the prosumer, which is to say, that I assume that you have investigated the relevant technical specifications. I hold my tools to a higher standard than most. I was taught early that tools are your resume when you endeavor to learn a classic trade, and that statement holds true because of saws like the DeWalt portable 10" table saw.I have used quite a few saws in my lifetime, and regardless of the location of the job site, Dewalt saws are a staple. This table saw does one better than "staple" and sets the bar higher for the entier table saw category. The metal "crash frame" makes this saw easier to use, even before it's turned on! The thoughtful placement of cord storage, and the included "jifflin" stick is so convenient that I have reached for it mid-rip. The contoured handles on the edges of the table serve their purpose wonderfully.The start up and run speed and power are powerful and pleasing. With a nice sharp Diablo blade, you will be ever-so-pleased with this table saw! The powerful motorlet you rip through mohagony, cedar, and of course pine with ease and grace.The pivoting table extension that allows work beyond a normal table's width is beyond cool. To run the fence out to 16" is REALLY nice!!!The tracked fence adjustment with visual gauge takes my production time to levels that other's can't compete with.The dust port location and size is pleasing.The fact that you can walk to a table saw, and adjust your rip-width without taking out a tape measure is one of the nicest changes to any tool I have ever experienced in my career.Yours faithfully,Ian JonesOwner, Abercrombie & WoodBrunswick, NY

Peter Henry Fonda (born February 23, 1940) is an American actor. He is the son of Henry Fonda, brother of Jane Fonda, and father of Bridget and Justin Fonda (by first wife Susan Brewer, stepdaughter of Noah Dietrich). Fonda is an icon of the counterculture of the 1960s.[3][4]
Fonda was born in New York City, the only son of actor Henry Fonda and his wife Frances Ford Seymour; he is the younger brother of actress Jane Fonda.[5][6] He and Jane had a maternal half-sister, Frances de Villers Brokaw (1931-2008), from their mother's first marriage.
On his eleventh birthday, he accidentally shot himself in the stomach and nearly died. He went to Nainital and stayed for a few months for recovery. Years later, he referred to this incident while with John Lennon and George Harrison and taking LSD. He said, "I know what it's like to be dead." This inspired The Beatles' song "She Said She Said". Early on, Fonda studied acting in Omaha, Nebraska, his father's home town. While attending the University of Nebraska at Omaha, Fonda joined the Omaha Community Playhouse, where many actors (including his father and Marlon Brando) had begun their careers.[citation needed]
Fonda found work on Broadway, where he gained notice in Blood, Sweat and Stanley Poole. He moved on to Hollywood to make films. He started his film career in romantic leading roles. He debuted in Tammy and the Doctor (1963), which he called "Tammy and the Schmuckface". But Fonda's intensity impressed Robert Rossen, who had directed the Oscar winner All the King's Men. He cast Fonda in Lilith (1964). He also was in The Victors (1964), and played the male lead in The Young Lovers (1964), about out-of-wedlock pregnancy.[citation needed]
By the mid-1960s, Peter Fonda was not a conventional "leading man" in Hollywood. As Playboy magazine reported, Fonda had established a "solid reputation as a dropout". He had become outwardly nonconformist and grew his hair long, alienating the "establishment" film industry. Desirable acting work became scarce. In the 1963–1964 season, he appeared in an episode of the ABC drama about college life, Channing.
Through his friendships with members of the band Byrds, Fonda visited The Beatles in their rented house in Benedict Canyon in Los Angeles in August 1965. While John Lennon, Ringo Starr, George Harrison, and Fonda were under the influence of LSD, Lennon heard Fonda say, "I know what it's like to be dead." Lennon used this phrase as the tag line for his song, "She Said She Said", which was included on the Revolver (1966) album.
In 1966, Fonda was arrested in the Sunset Strip riot, which the police ended forcefully. The band Buffalo Springfield protested the department's handling of the incident in their song "For What It's Worth". Fonda did some singing and in 1968, recorded a 45 for the Chisa label: "November Night" (written by Gram Parsons) b/w "Catch The Wind" (the Donovan song), produced by Hugh Masekela.[7]
Fonda's first counterculture-oriented film role was as the lead character "Heavenly Blues", a Hells Angels chapter president, in Roger Corman's b-movie, The Wild Angels (1966). In the film, Fonda delivered a "eulogy" at a fallen Angel's funeral service. This was sampled in the Primal Scream recording "Loaded" (1991), and in other rock songs. Fonda next played the male lead in Corman's film The Trip (1967), a take on the experience and "consequences" of consuming LSD.
In 1968, Fonda produced, co-wrote and starred in Easy Rider, directed by Dennis Hopper. This independent film is his most notable. Easy Rider is about two long-haired bikers traveling through the southwest and southern United States where they encounter intolerance and violence. Fonda played "Captain America," a charismatic, laconic man whose motorcycle jacket bore a large American flag across the back. Dennis Hopper played the garrulous "Billy". Jack Nicholson was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his turn as George Hanson, an alcoholic civil rights lawyer who rides along with them. Fonda co-wrote the screenplay with Terry Southern and Hopper.
Hopper filmed the cross-country road trip depicted almost entirely on location. Fonda had secured funding in the neighborhood of $360,000 - (largely based on the fact he knew that was the budget Roger Corman needed to make The Wild Angels).[9]
The film was released in 1969 to international success. The guitarist and composer Robbie Robertson, of The Band, was so moved by an advance screening that he approached Fonda and tried to convince him to let him write a complete score, even though the film was nearly due for wide release. Fonda refused, using Steppenwolf's "Born to Be Wild" and Bob Dylan's "It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding" sung by the Byrds' Roger McGuinn, among many other tracks. Fonda, Hopper and Southern were nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. The film grossed over $40 million.[10]
After the success of Easy Rider, both Hopper and Fonda were sought for film projects. Hopper made the drug-addled jungle epic, The Last Movie, (in which Fonda co-starred along with singer Michelle Phillips of The Mamas & the Papas). Fonda directed the Western film, The Hired Hand (1971). Fonda took the lead role in a cast that also featured Warren Oates, Verna Bloom and Beat poet Michael McClure. The film received mixed reviews and failed commercially.
This was followed in 1974 by both Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry, a box-office hit that became a cult classic, and Open Season, which failed. He worked again with Warren Oates in Race with the Devil in 1975.
In 1976, Fonda starred opposite Susan St. James as a musician on the run in Outlaw Blues, and in Futureworld, an unsuccessful science fiction sequel to Westworld. In 1979, he directed and starred in the drama Wanda Nevada alongside Brooke Shields. His father Henry Fonda made a brief appearance as well, and it is the only film in which they performed together. In a later nod to his roles in The Wild Angels and Easy Rider, Fonda had a cameo as the "Chief Biker" in the 1981 slapstick comedy The Cannonball Run.[citation needed]
After years of films that did not attract much attention, Fonda received high-profile critical recognition and universal praise for his performance in Ulee's Gold (1997). He portrayed a stoic North Florida beekeeper who, in spite of his tumultuous family life, imparts a sense of integrity to his wayward convict son. He takes risks to protect his drug-abusing daughter-in-law. His performance gained him an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor. Fonda's long movie career has embraced the contrasts between the wide-eyed and questing (possibly amoral, certainly drug-dealing) rebel motorcyclist in Easy Rider and the heartsick, embittered, war-veteran father he played nearly three decades later in Ulee's Gold. The older man represents decency as he tries to share the wisdom of age with his defiantly nihilistic son, and saves the life of his addicted daughter-in-law.
In 1998, Peter Fonda starred in a TV movie version of The Tempest, based in part on Shakespeare's play of the same name. This version has often been overlooked when versions of the play are listed or quoted. It was directed by Jack Bender and starred Fonda, John Glover, Harold Perrineau, and Katherine Heigl.[11] Although not available on DVD, it is on VHS tape.
Two years later, Fonda appeared in the 1999 crime film The Limey, as the money laundering/celebrity rock music producer Terry Valentine. It was directed by Steven Soderbergh in a neo noir style.
In 2001 a fully restored version of The Hired Hand was exhibited at a number of festivals. Despite generating mixed reviews upon its initial release, in 2001 it gained a generally enthusiastic critical response. The Sundance Channel released a DVD of the film in two separate editions that same year, and the film has since found an audience as a cult Western classic.
In 2002, Fonda was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame. He did the voice-over of the aging hippie, The Truth, in the video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (2004), which was very successful.
In a 2007 interview, Fonda said that riding motorcycles helped him to focus, stating,
"I ride an MV Agusta. This is an Italian racing motorcycle. It forces focus. You have to be focused and in my life, in this business, focus is hard to find sometimes. So I need to force focus and that's great. The bike takes you on a free road. There's no fences on the roads I ride and I don't ride freeways. That's as much as I can tell you because there are more lands waiting for this little Christian boy. That's not true. I'm an atheist, but what the heck."[12]
In 2007, Fonda made a notable return to the big screen as the bounty hunter Byron McElroy in the remake of the 1957 Western, 3:10 to Yuma. He appeared together with Christian Bale and Russell Crowe. The film received two Academy Award nominations, and positive reviews from critics. He also appeared in the last scenes of the biker comedy Wild Hogs as Damien Blade, founder of the biker gang Del Fuegos and father of Jack, played by Ray Liotta. This year also featured Fonda portraying Mephistopheles, one of two main villains in the 2007 film Ghost Rider. Although he wanted to play the character in the sequel, he was replaced by Ciarán Hinds.
In 2009, he appeared as 'The Roman', the main villain, in The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day, the sequel to a cult hit. 'Il Duce' was played by Billy Connolly. Fonda also appeared in the TV series Californication.
He was once asked about performing in the classic stage drama 12 Angry Men, for which his father was renowned. His response: "Don't hold your breath for that one."[citation needed]
Fonda wrote an autobiography, Don't Tell Dad (1998).[13]
In 2000, a Golden Palm Star on the Palm Springs, California, Walk of Stars was dedicated to him.[14]
Fonda has had a permanent home in Paradise Valley, Montana since 1975.[15]
In 2011, Fonda and Tim Robbins produced The Big Fix, a documentary that examined the role of BP in the Deepwater Horizon oil spill and its effects on the Gulf of Mexico. At a press conference at the Cannes Film Festival, Fonda stated that he had written to President Barack Obama about the spill and attacked him as a "fucking traitor" for allowing "foreign boots on our soil telling our military—in this case the Coast Guard—what they can and could not do, and telling us, the citizens of the United States, what we could or could not do.'"[16]
In August of 1965, Fonda attended a party at a home in the Benedict Canyon section of Los Angeles, given by The Beatles who were renting the home. According to Fonda himself, soon after his arrival, he and The Beatles took LSD, including the original Byrds. Eventually they ended up in a huge sunken bath tub where Fonda got hung up on an anecdote about an operation he had during which he almost died. He kept going on and on about what it was like to be dead, until John Lennon couldn't take it anymore and told Fonda, "Listen mate, shut up about that stuff!" This rambling by Fonda would eventually turn into the Beatles song, "She Said, She Said". [17]
On January 12, 2011, Fonda found the body of a man sitting in a car parked on the side of Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles. He called 911. Emergency personnel estimated the man had committed suicide about three days earlier in the car.[18]

|I recently took a cutting from a healthy "medusa's head" succulent plant (Euphorbia flanaganii), rooted it in a propagation chamber and then planted them in a small container with a cactus soil mix. About a month has gone by, and I've noticed that it has become progressively darker, and is now almost entirely a deep red. It is still alive, but it looks as though any new growth it sends out is dying.
I figure this is happening because I have it in a west-facing window, but am a bit confused because I believe it is receiving as much or less light than the mother plant was. I'm also witnessing this in other succulent cuttings I've put in the same location, even ones whose mother plants were getting 6-9 hours of direct sun each day.
My question is, is this a sign that the plant is unhealthy? Should I move them? In the future, should I wait longer before placing cuttings in full sun? (This time I waited about two weeks for them to root in bright indirect light). Any help would be appreciated...

|they're probably a bit too tender for full sun. move them to a slightly shadier spot and then very slowly (every couple days/once a week) move them to their full time home.

White Collar returned last night for its third season and, lord, they didn't waste any time getting right back into the action, huh? So, since we lovelovelove USA's crafty con drama and what is being set up with this Nazi treasure mystery, the Watercooler has decided to devote today's column to a chat with star Matt Bomer about what's coming up and why Neal may not be such a good guy after all. (But shhh, don't tell Peter!)
What a difference eight years makes. Back then, White Collar's con-man extraordinaire Neal Caffrey (Matt Bomer) was a little more blue collar, FBI agent Peter Burke (Tim DeKay) was itching to collar him, and street swindler Mozzie (Willie Garson) wore a piece. And we don't mean a gun."I remember walking past the hair and makeup room and seeing Willie in a different toupee every time and just dying laughing," says Bomer. "My favorite was the 'Shaggy' look from Scooby Doo."But tonight's White Collar episode — which flashes back to 2003 — explores deeper roots than Mozzie's. Over a six-pack and a bottle of red wine, Peter and Neal discuss their most pressing case: catching Vincent Adler (Andrew McCarthy), the man behind Kate's death, the music-box mystery and Mozzie's shooting....

The Homeless In Florida Give Citrus County Sheriffs Office An Award For Compassion And Understanding
CRYSTAL RIVER, Fla., March 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sheriffs awarded for Kindness. The Mission in Citrus Homeless Shelters recently awarded the Citrus County, Florida Sheriff's Department an award for their outstanding treatment of the homeless, and their improved understanding and empathy of the new faces of homelessness. Treating those who have become homeless through no fault of their own with dignity and respect. And their dedication and teamwork to get the criminal homeless off the streets and to make Citrus County Florida a much safer place to live.
One of many stories:
"My name is Jane Phipps. I am a 53 year old single female. Currently, I am living at the Mission in Citrus, a homeless shelter in Crystal River. I thank God every day for the Mission.
"The night that I came I was sick and had been at the emergency room because of my COPD and deteriorating Arthritis. I am also manic depressive and bi-polar. My cousin took me to the hospital because I was sick and left me there. I was terrified. I didn't know what to do, where to go since I was not from here...all kind of things went through my mind. What would I do, where would I stay, and what would I eat? I only had the clothes on my back and no one to turn to."I went to a neighbor's house and called the police. When the Sheriff's office got there, the officer asked me what was going on and I told him what had happened. I then began to cry because I was scared and didn't know what to do. The officer got down on his knee and told me to calm down, everything would be alright, that he was going to take me some place where I would be safe and wouldn't have to worry.

Golden Wants The Death Penalty For Cop Killers
Posted By Willie Simpson On January 8, 2013 @ 12:00 pm In News & Features | 3 Comments
State Senator Marty Golden wants to reinstate the death penalty in New York, particularly for those who kill cops, according to a recent press release.
Golden put forward the bill in light of three cop shootings this past week.
"As a former New York City Police Officer, I know there is evil walking on the streets of the City and State of New York, endangering the lives of every single police officer…It is our responsibility to re-establish the death penalty," Golden said in the release.
This isn't Golden's first attempt to bring back the death penalty, having sponsored bills that passed in the Republican Senate but failed in the Democratic Assembly.
New York State hasn't officially executed anyone since 1963, and while Governor George Pataki in 1995 signed a statute into law allowing for lethal injections, it was declared unconstitutional in 2004 by New York's highest court.
The practice of state executions was officially put to an end by former Governor David Paterson via executive order in 2008.

If the Detroit Red Wings are going to continue being successful in this new NHL its going to have to start on the farm. Everyone knows that for the better part of a decade the Red Wings were able to supplement their core roster through free agency or deadline trades. The draft wasnt the way the Wings won their Cups. Most of their draft picks were traded away or slotted so late in the draft that the resulting players were usually unimportant in the grand scheme of the NHL.
Now theres a salary cap and the ability to identify and cultivate young talent is at a premium. Its not like the Red Wings have a poor history when it comes to drafting players. A lot of the guys who supplied the power behind the recent rash of Stanley Cup wins were home grown talent. Guys like Steve Yzerman, Nick Lidstrom, Sergei Fdorov, Darren McCarty, Kris Draper, Pavel Datsyuk, Henrik Zetterberg, Slava Kozlov, Vladimir Konstantinov, Martin Lapointe, Tomas Holmstrom, etc. were all guys either drafted by or acquired early enough in their careers that their development as players can be attributed to the Red Wings organization.
There is no doubt that the franchise is paying for their sins when it comes to sacrificing young talent for veteran players in an attempt to win. The cupboard has been bare for the last handful of years outside of Datsyuk and Zetterberg. But Im here to tell you that farm system for the Red Wings is most definitely on an upswing and that there are a few bright spots (some brighter than others) that you should be on the look out for.
Well start with the position that everyone in this town cares the most about: Goaltending.
Jimmy Howard (22 yrs old, 60 215 lbs) Jimmy has been anointed the goalie of the future for the Red Wings ever since he was drafted in 2003. He was a dominate collegiate goaltender for the University of Maine, posting a save percentage above .950 in his sophomore season. Last year was his first in Grand Rapids and he performed well. His career path thus far has drawn some obvious comparisons to that of Ryan Miller in Buffalo. They are both big, American goalies who can be ultimately streaky but when they are on they can win games by themselves. Jimmy has shown flashes this year but he has had an up and down year at best. Personally Ive been a little disappointed by how Jimmy has performed this year but my expectations were probably a little unrealistic. Its still to be seen when it will happen, but Jimmy Howard will be the starting goaltender for the Detroit Red Wings in the next couple of years.
The blue-line is where the Wings are the deepest with their youth. If you count Nick Kronwall and Brett Lebda the organization has six defensemen under 26 years old who are bonafide NHL level players. Derek Meech (22 yrs old, 511, 197 made the AHL All-Star game this year and has really come on in the last two seasons to prove he deserves a shot in the big time. Hes certainly no bruiser but he will fit in well as a 4th, 5th or 6th defensemen in the NHL. Kyle Quincey (21 yrs old, 62, 215) is likely the defensemen that you will see the soonest in Detroit. Hes a defensive defensemen with a little bit of bite to his game. Hes had some concussion issues that have likely cost him some call-ups already. It will be more of a surprise if Quincey is not a Red Wing next year. On to the two guys who I think the average fan should be the most excited about:
Jakub Kindl (19 yrs old, 63, 202 lbs) - Ive personally seen Jakub play six or seven times and his growth has been obvious. Hes offensively gifted enough to be an impact play on an NHL level. Hes very skilled and can skate extremely well. The only problem I have had watching him play is his inconsistency. He will make a jaw dropping pass one time down the ice and the next he will give it away in his own zone. He looked much better this year at Kitchner than he did last and is only going to get better. This is a kid who damn near made the NHL team as a 19 year old this year. Dont be surprised if you see him in Detroit sooner rather than later and he has the potential to be a top pair d-man in his career.
Jonathan Ericsson (22 yrs old, 65, 218 lbs) It seems like I have been talking about Ericsson forever. He is a converted defenseman (he played center until the 2004 season) who has every physical tool you could hope for. Hes huge and hes not afraid to assert a physical presence. His time spent as a forward has allowed him to develop a really good skating stride and solid mobility for a man of his size. Hes got a big shot and can play on the PK and the PP. His raw potential is immense. The problem is that, as a converted defenseman he has a lot of playing he needs to do to fully understand the position. His debut in North America this year has been better than anyone hoped for. Hes shown some offensive ability (22 points in 39 games) and defensive understanding beyond his experience. I love this kid and in my opinion he will be a star in the NHL.
Jiri Hudler, Tomas Kopecky and Valterri Filppula all made the jump from the minor leagues to the NHL club this year and there are more forwards behind them waiting for their shot at the big time. Igor Grigorenko (23 yrs old, 510, 209 lbs) has been the teams most heralded offensive prospect for a couple of years now. He had a major set back in 2002 when he was in a serious car accident that he is just now fully recovering from. You will see Grigs next year in North America and hopefully like what you see. Jan Mursak has Datsyukian offensive skills and has been having a monster year in Saginaw this year. Justin Abdelkader is a local player who is currently playing at MSU. He doesnt project to be more than a 3rd line, hard forechecking type of player, but he is likely to be a huge fan favorite when he gets his shot in the NHL. Heres two more guys who I think you should know:
Cory Emmerton (18 yrs old, 6, 190 lbs) The first chance I had to watch Cory was at the Traverse City camp this year and immediately he was one of my favorite there. He is an elite playmaker. His vision is great and he seems to have that thing that makes great playmakers great. Whether you want to call it hockey sense, intuition or smarts he definitely has it. Hes been scoring huge numbers in the OHL this year and doesnt show signs of slowing down. He and Ericsson are my favorite Wings prospects right now. This kid has the chance to be special. He can play center or left wing right now.
Johan Ryno (20 yrs old, 65, 209 lbs) I admittedly dont know as much about Ryno as I do most of these other prospects but everything coming out of the organization about him has been positive. Hes got tantalizing size to go with a reasonable package of skill. He seems to be a hard worker and understand the game well enough. Hes got a huge upside and has really picked up his play after changing teams in Sweden.
Thats all for now, Ill just leave you with a sleeper in the system that Ive got a really solid feeling about (call it one of T Foss bunion moments):
Gennady Stolyarov (20 yrs old, 64, 203 lbs) He was a late round pick by the Red Wings in 2004 (257th overall) and is still raw. He plays on the Wing and has a really fascinating combination of size and skill. His work ethic and maturity have been questioned but from the reports coming back this year he has started to get it.
