Today, Sony began rolling out an update to Ice Cream Sandwich for the Xperia P, Xperia U, Xperia go and Xperia sola devices that'll come packed with 'bug fixes' and 'performance tweaks.' It's unclear what exactly those tweaks are, but who among us doesn't like a little tweaking?

Sony Xperia P goes gold for Nordic Facebook contest
In the past, the Sony Xperia P has been recognized in Europe as an award-winning "green" phone. We have also seen Sony produce the phone in a pink version. Now Sony is upping the ante by combining color with material for their latest version, a gold Xperia P. The unibody phone is likely gold-plated with 24k gold over the aluminum frame rather than being molded out of gold. Even that gold plating should be enough to really drive up the retail price, but we can only guess since no details were provided as to whether it would even be made available.
Sony produced this latest version for a competition they are conducting via their Facebook page for customers in Nordic countries. Hopefully Sony fans in that country were following the Sony Facebook page and entered by telling what "gold Friday" means to them as the deadline appears to have passed.

Sony Xperia P recognized as European Green Smart Phone 2012-2013 by EISA
Sony was pleased to announce today that they have been recognized once again for their green efforts. The European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA) recognized the Sony Xperia P as their European Green Smart Phone 2012-2013. EISA is an industry body featuring 50 tech-focused magazines from 19 countries.
Sony's award for the Xperia P follows last year's award for green smart phones granted to the Sony Xperia Mini. In reviewing this year's winner, EISA noted Sony's efforts to reduce power consumption through technologies like Sony's WhiteMagic. WhiteMagic can increase the brightness of the screen even when in power save mode and reduces backlight power consumption by up to 50%. Other steps undertaken by Sony include minimal packaging, electronic-only user manuals, and limitations on power consumption by chargers. These efforts came about even as Sony, and other smart phone manufacturers, continue the march toward larger screens and batteries that last longer.

Pink Sony Xperia P gets the Early Unboxing Treatment
Hey ladies, get a load of this upcoming Sony Xperia NXT design! What we are looking at here is a pink, aluminum body Xperia P as unboxed by the folks over at RingHK. Apparently this device is due to hit markets sometime in the near future but unfortunately there is no word on when or where.
The dual-core Xperia P has found itself a loyal following by boasting a sexy design, decent specs and a reasonable price to go along with it. After it receives the Ice Cream Sandwich update in the next couple of weeks the Xperia P could be one of the better mid-range devices available. We wish we knew more about the launch of the phone but we have a feeling it will be limited to overseas markets, but most definitely will be available throughout Asia. If we hear any more news on its launch we will be sure to let you know. In the meantime, Sign off if the comments below if this is something you would be interested in… and don't worry dudes, pink is punk!
Jump past the break to see a few more images.

Sony Xperia P owners will be happy to know that Ice Cream Sandwich should arrive between August 19th and August 25th according to Sony Mobile India. They originally estimated that it would hit in the second-half of August so it looks like everything is on schedule.

US Launch Of Sony Xperia NXT Series Feels Dated With Gingerbread On Board
We reported last week about Sony's Xperia NXT series (S, P, and Sola models) coming to the US. Sony announced today that, along with the Xperia S and Xperia P, the Xperia U is now finally available, unlocked and SIM-free, in the States. By "SIM-free", they actually mean it will only work on AT&T 3G and 4G, so be warned.
Now the issue here is that all three of these phones have been available in Europe for a few months, so they're not exactly brand new. In fact, they are all still running Android 2.3 Gingerbread. That's two versions behind Jelly Bean (remember, Honeycomb was a tablet only version). Sure, Sony says that all three phones will be upgraded to Ice Cream Sandwich, but come on, at the retail prices they're quoting, we would expect the phones to already be upgraded to at least ICS.
The top of the line in this series is the Xperia S, which comes with a 1.5GHz Snapdragon S3, 1GB RAM, 720p Reality Display, 12MP camera, and 32GB of storage. Decent specs deserving a newer OS than Gingerbread. The S comes with a suggested retail price of $559.99 in black or white.
The Xperia P fills out the mid-range with dual-core 1GHz U8500 chip, qHD screen, and 8MP camera. It also features an aluminum body in silver, red, or black for a suggested retail price of $479.99.
Finally, on the budget side there's the Xperia U with a dual-core 1 GHz U8500 chip, WVGA display, 5MP camera, and interchangeable, multi-colored bottom caps. The U retails for $299.99 and is available in black or white.
Sorry, Sony, but it's hard to get excited when phones like the HTC One X or Samsung Galaxy S III are available at much lower carrier-subsidized prices in the US, not to mention the $350 off-contract price of the Galaxy Nexus, which runs Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.
Hit the break for Sony's full press release.
Pink Xperia P spotted at Sony event
If you have been searching the smartphone market for a pink handset, your potential choices may be ready to grow by at least one. According to sources, a metallic pink version of the Sony Xperia P was spotted at Sony's Weibo event. Whenever it is released, and there is no word on when or where that may be, the pink Xperia P will join black, grey and red models that are already available.

Unlocked Xperia S, P and Sola Now Available In the U.S.
Sony Mobile is now delivering on its promise to deliver their NXT lineup of Android devices unlocked in the U.S. The Xperia S with a dual core 1.5 Ghz Qualcomm CPU, 4.3″ (1280 x 720) HD display, and capable 12MP camera is available for $469.99 from Newegg in black or white. The Xperia P rocking a 1Ghz dual core CPU, 4″ (960 x 540) qHD display, and 8MP camera is up for $388.99 from Newegg. While the budget friendly Xperia Sola with its 1Ghz dual core CPU, 3.7″ (854 x 480) display, "floating touch" technology, and 5MP camera can be had for $299.00 from Newegg.
All three models will receive Sony Mobile's ICS update and will work on AT&T's 3G network. The Xperia U is not yet available, but should be up sometime soon. These are all capable devices and should only get better once they have the Android ICS update installed. Anyone interested in one of these devices?

Xperia Play Android 4.0 Upgrade Has Been Canceled
Sony Mobile has confirmed that the Xperia Play's upgrade to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich has been canceled, leaving the PlayStation-certified smartphone on Android 2.3 Gingerbread. Sony explains that compatibility and stability issues with the Play's gaming features are to blame.
Other 2011 Xperia phones are still on track to receive the upgrade to ICS, including the Xperia Arc, Xperia Neo, Xperia Mini, Xperia Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, and Xperia Active. These devices will begin receiving an optional 4.0.4 update through the PC Companion app starting next week.
Existing Xperia devices already running 4.0.3 will be getting an update to 4.0.4 around the same time frame. These devices include the Xperia Arc S, Xperia Ray, and Xperia Neo V.
Late June is the date for the Xperia S to get ICS, and the Xperia P and Xperia U should receive it in Q3.

Sony Xperia P, U, and Sola Now Available In Most Regions Across the Globe
During MWC this year Sony made the world aware of the Xperia P and Xperia U with the Xperia Sola being announced a few weeks after. While initially released only in Asia they are now available across the globe. Slated as low to mid-range devices they're appearing to round out Sony's 2012 line. All three carry Gingerbread with hopes that the ICS update that's on track for next month gets released on time. What's neat is that the Xperia Sola is sporting the "floating touch" technology announced the same time the phone was.
The Xperia U will be available on O2, Three, T-Mobile and Orange while the Xperia P will be seen O2′s network. While the Sola hasn't been announced on any major carriers I would be surprised if none of them picked it up. The Xperia P will run you £320 (roughly $500) and the U will run £170 (roughly $270). The Sola will be available for £250 (roughly $390). But if you're somewhere across the globe and are interested in one of these devices then hit the source link below to find the best deal!

I would like a large trade of Crocosmia Luifer. My lists aren't up to date but take a look and maybe I still have what you're looking for.Presently have some canna and white bearded iris freshly dug two days ago. |

Hello bobbih, I recently purchased 3 1-gallon pots of Crocosmia Lucifer via Amazon from Hirt's garden. I paid $21.24 with S&H. Each container had 3 to 4 bulbs in each pot. Very Healthy. Check them out. Sincerely, Avis M. |

I've heard that they spread rapidly, so I'm surprised more people aren't offering to share, but instead giving you catalog info - terrible. I thought this was a trade site, and this is the second time today I've come across this behavior. If someone is asking for a plant on a plant trade site, they obviously don't want to buy it. And why buy when you can trade or pay postage?! Gardeners share, and plants multiply. I hope you have luck getting your crocosima - I think I may be getting lucky soon, with a small trade in the works. I've heard they grow well under all garden conditions. They're pretty. |
- Posted by Queen-Gardener 5 OH (My Page) on Wed, Aug 27, 14 at 10:23
ALSO, Hirt's is an Ohio nursery that is also selling on Etsy.com, I just found out, and possibly other outlets. It looked like the Etsy shipping was cheaper than Amazon. |
I'll be dividing up my Crocosmias in a few weeks. I'm hoping to double what I have, the rest are yours. The ones in the back are blooming prolifically, the ones in front didn't bloom (I don't know why). Canna is nice, another hummingbird plant! |

"i love dosas and ur recipe was just the one i have always been searching for. the filling was so tasty and so was the chutney. ya i did some mistakes too as ur recipe had some lines missing like "grind the rice and dals with water" (as i was grinding it without it as ur recipe didnt say so). for a first try, they were just great :)"
"u know chair, u should change this recipe's name from ooey gooey to yummy yummy cinnamon rolls!! since i had had the cinnamon rolls at cinabon i really wanted to make them at home as i liked them a lot. huumm, very much happy that i choose ur recipe. a bit time consuming but worth the hard work :)"
"good, really good. just i made some changes like i had readymade chicken balls in my freezer, i used those. i added beef stock and also added in a dash of basil, fresh corriander and also little bit of tomato paste. uuummmmm, sooooo tasty, it turned out really cool. yeah, i just skipped the bacon as we cant eat that but still it was a great recipe..."
"there should have been a higher rating, 5 stars r not enough for this delicious recipe. now i know one thing, ur daughter has got a real good taste for food :)"
"very tasty and very easy. i wanted to try it with ur killer BBQ sauce but not all he ingres r available here so i used the one in my fridge. but it still tasted very good. just to increase the size of the dish i added in some capsicum, spring onions and potatoes, it turned out just great :)"
"Bergy is absolutely right. it is really a fabulous recipe. great taste and easy to make and as all ingredients r always available in my kitchen so it will be a good & quick recipe for unexpected guests. though while cooking it i was a bit shaky whether everyone will like it or not becoz of the sweet taste but everyone loved it here :)"
"nice recipe but i felt something was either less or more. i liked the gravy the most but the potatoes didnt taste that nice. they had no flavor in them, just like plain boiled potatoes. i added some cumin seeds and mustard seeds also while frying the onions to give it added flavour."

3 I am the LORD your God, the holy one of Israel, your savior. I have given Egypt as your ransom, Cush and Seba in your place. | 3 For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush and Seba in your stead. |

SHIMLA: Around 280 bigha land, once owned by Maharaja of Faridkot Harinder Singh, at Mashobra in Shimla district has come under the government scanner after it was found that the trust which currently owns it acquired the property in violation of HP Ceiling on Land Holding Act, 1972. Since the government has not found any records of trust owning the prime land, the revenue department has marked a probe to determine whether any benami land deal is involved in transaction of this land.
According to the provisions of HP Ceiling on Land Holding Act, 1972, an individual or a trust can own a maximum of 150 bighas of land in the state and excess of it is vested with the government. However, all these years, the 280 bighas, once belonging to Faridkot royalty, remained in possession of Maharawal Khewaji Trust, Mashobra.
The issue came to light after BJP MLA from Arki, Gobind Ram listed a question during the budget session of assembly, seeking details about the land owned by the trust and names and addresses of its trustees. The MLA also sought information about the trust's registration date and its by-laws. It was during the compilation of reply to this particular question that the authorities found that the trust was not registered with the government and its land was in excess of the Act.
Sources said that in 1988-90, Raja Harinder Singh had given the ownership of over 280 bighas to Maharawal Khewaji Trust through a will without taking permission from the government to transfer the land. This came to light when officials checked the revenue record while preparing the reply to Arki MLA's query, they added. Besides, who are the trustees? It has become a matter of investigation now. In the transfer of land, even Section 118 of the Land Revenue Act has been violated, sources revealed.
Confirming the development, principal secretary (revenue) Deepak Sanan said the Shimla district administration has been asked to probe into the matter. "The deputy commissioner, Shimla, would be in a better position to give information on the matter," he said. Attempts to contact deputy commissioner Arun Sharma remained futile as he did not take the calls made on his phone.

I will admit that the libre fanatica is extremely useful I will probably also look into the v3 rules and with the support of the GM come up with a suitable compromise as there are only limited actual rules and come up with some suitable basis.

I just read that sweet potato vines were edible. Has anyone ever eaten them? |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by Slimy_Okra 2b (My Page) on Tue, Jul 29, 14 at 19:25
Yep, the shoot tips and young leaves. The older vines can be quite tough. I cook them like spinach. They are very common in West and Central African cuisine. |
Do they taste like sweet potatoes? I have about a large pot full out there. |
- Posted by Slimy_Okra 2b (My Page) on Tue, Jul 29, 14 at 20:45
They don't seem to taste like much to me, just a 'green vegetable' taste with a slight bit of sliminess when cooked (nothing like okra though). |
Maybe with a little salt and butter they would taste ok. Just curious. I never knew they were edible. |
Sweet potato leaves are very popular in Asian & Pacific Island cultures. The shoots are sometimes sold in bundles in Asian markets. The good thing about that is, you can pinch off the tip & tender leaves, throw the stems into a glass half full of water, and cook the leaves. If you like the flavor, the stems will root quickly, and you can plant them. Not all sweet potato leaves taste the same. I've tried some that were horrible, with almost a chemical aftertaste. The ornamental varieties with colored leaves fall in that category, among others. Filipinos have an edible-leaf variety called 'kamote', which is the one I usually grow. In hot weather, the leaf production can be astounding. But for a hot weather green, I much prefer the closely related water spinach. It too is often sold in bunches in Asian markets, and the shoots root even more readily than sweet potatoes. Water spinach can also be grown from seed, but unfortunately, it has been declared a noxious weed in the U.S., so seed is hard to find. You can find a lot more info on both vegetables in the Asian Vegetable Forum. |

oh...My parents survived from famine by eating them. That's what they told me. Food shortage is no long a problem when I was raised. But my mother occasionally prepare those food by steaming sweet potato leaves mixed with corn powder and seasoned with peanut oil. They are absolutely delicious. But my father don't like them possibly he just ate too much. LOL |

Most of you have probably never heard of Dan McKim. Dan is currently one of the best Highland Games competitors in the world, having won the National Championship from 2010-2013 and the World Championship in 2011 & 2013. I met Dan at the CSCCA Conference in Salt Lake City this year, where we were both working the Sorinex booth (I was promoting my Hip Thruster to the various strength coaches). Dan and I instantly hit it off. Even though he looks like Goliath, he's a wonderful guy.

Inside the Mind of Bret Contreras
Below is an interview from Jukka Mäennenä. Jukka recently interviewed me for ProBody Magazine (a Finnish magazine) and was kind enough to translate the interview into English. This interview took place several months back, when I was still living in Scottsdale. I recently moved to Phoenix and have a new Glute Lab.
Inside the mind of Bret Contreras
By Jukka Mäennenä
I'm driving in Scottsdale close to Phoenix. Although it's February the heat of Arizona makes my shirt wet like driving would be a physical feat. Scottsdale is know as one of the better neighbourhoods in the area. Houses along the road confirm the impression. The size of the properties are more than adequate to do pretty much whatever you want. There´s also at least one SUV or truck that is powered no smaller by an V6 engine on every drivelane. The gas consumption of those vehicles makes me shiver since I´m still thinking in gas prices back home in Finland (approximately $8,5 for gallon for those who want to know). Bret Contreras agreed to have an appointment with me the previous day. I received the address I´m heading to right now. I assumed that it would be located near some type of mall or at least in an industrial area– the sort of places gyms are usually located, you know. I stop because the GPS says I´m arrived in the destination. The house I see doesn't differ in any way from the other ones in the neighbourhood. I try to look around for a bit and finally knock the door. Mr. Contreras opens the door. Supposedly I´m in the right place.
A Discussion With Paul Carter on Anabolic Steroids
I recently asked Paul Carter if he'd be willing to jump on Skype and record a discussion on the topic of anabolic steroids with me. We ended up talking for nearly 2 hours. The information contained within won't be anything ground-breaking for serious lifters who have been around the block. However, for those who are ignorant and naive on the topic of steroids, you'll definitely learn a thing or two.
Paul and I are not experts on the topic of anabolic steroids; we're not medical doctors/endocrinologists and we aren't involved in research on anabolic steroids, so take our advice with a grain of salt. Personally, I would like to see more discussion on anabolic steroids emerge over time in our field as it tends to be a taboo in strength & conditioning media. Here's the video (my apologies, I don't have an MP3 file for you):
An Interview With Dr. Stu Phillips on Muscle Hypertrophy and Sports Nutrition
Yesterday I had the privilege of sitting down with Dr. Stuart Phillips from McMaster University (click HERE to follow him on Twitter) and discussing various topics in sports science and nutrition. We talked about the hormone hypothesis, best rep ranges for hypertrophy (and load versus effort), THIS article (Mitchell et al. 2012), sarcoplasmic versus myofibrillar hypertrophy, limitations & practical relevance of his research, levels of protein intake for maximal hypertrophy, recommended supplements for maximum hypertrophy, and more.

Mother did not properly secure the child seat.
Just after 12:00 this morning, CHP officers witnessedfirst hand as an intoxicated woman crashed her vehicle, seriouslyinjuring her two year old child.
41 year old Angela Bass was driving her 2002 Chevrolet on thenorthbound 14 freeway just past Sand Canyon Road. According to theCalifornia Highway Patrol, her level of intoxication led to hermaking an "unsafe turning movement," causing her car tolose control.
Two CHP officers happened to be assisting a disabled vehicle onthe highway when Bass' vehicle nearly struck them and theirpatrol car. The officers then reported seeing the car go off thehighway, down a steep dirt embankment.
Emergency crews were immediately notified, and CHP and Firecrews rendered medical aid. A two year old boy riding in the carwas found to have not been properly secured in his child seat. Thatcaused the seat to move forward during the collision, resulting inthe child sustaining serious injuries.
Bass suffered only minor injuries, as she was found to have notbeen wearing her seat belt correctly either.
Both mother and son were taken to Henry Mayo for treatment. Basswas arrested on Felony Driving Under the Influence charges andFelony Child Endangerment.

Board president and chief instigator, Jack Presnal said, "Films to be produced will be very modestly budgeted. Their excellence will come from the contributions of the members. No matter your background, there is a role in CFSSB for everybody. Making a movie requires the widest range of skills, not just technical film skills, to reach the screen. So, truly, even with no experience or background, there is an important part for everyone to play."
First film for CFSSB will be under the tutelage of well-known actress Finola Hughes, who is expanding her repertoire to directing with this first feature for CFSSB. She said, "I am extremely excited to be involved in this endeavor; joining my community in the launch of such a new, autonomous venture in film making."

4. Take a workshop and start becoming a master at one of the many areas of production.
5. Once the shooting schedule is announced, try to make time available in your schedule to be able to participate. This is the single most important contribution you can make.

The elephants come out at lunch time — around the time we're knee deep in Elephant Bay restaurants' spicy Sri Lankan sambol and chicken curry. As they gambol by the river, we drink in the view and lots of steaming Dilmah tea.
Sure, India has elephants, but we've never managed to market them as efficiently as Sri Lanka has. On the other hand, when it comes to food, it looks like Indian curry has submerged the world.
All through our weekend in Kandy and Colombo, the food is startlingly familiar, replete with flavours revisiting us like old friends. Cardamom. Cloves. Coriander. Cumin. Curries are thickened with coconut milk and spiked with fennel, fenugreek and tamarind. Colours are deepened with turmeric, and brightened with curry leaves.
We eat string hoppers for breakfast, similar to the Kerala lace idiaappams, but team them with sambols, little bowls of explosive flavour that add new dimensions to every mouthful of food. They come in the form of caramelised onion sharpened with chillies, powerful dried shrimp teamed with coconut, and fish flakes, moist mint echoing with the twang of onions and sweet sultanas.
String hoppers appear regularly. Desserts, besides the classic wattalappamn (a caramel custard-like concoction of coconut milk, palm sugar and spice) are old school British — bread pudding, jelly trifles and chocolate biscuit pudding. An edible trip down memory lane to the days when puddings were made at home, and necessarily contained, at least, one can of cloying condensed milk.
However, what's fascinating about Sri Lankan food is not how similar it is to generic Indian, and specifically Tamil Nadu and Kerala, cooking, but, where it deviates. For a country that's so close to us geographically, sharing practically the same climate and vegetation of South India, it's intriguing that the cuisine is distinct.
Chef Channa Dassanayaka in his book "Sri Lankan Flavours: A journey through the island's food and culture" lists dried shrimp, lemon grass and pandanus (a stiff, bright green leaf used for its unusual grassy, nutty flavour and colour in curries and rice) as essential to Sri Lankan cooking. The other unusual ingredient is 'Maldive fish', actually dried bonito fish caught in the South China Sea. It's processed in the Maldive islands, hence the name.
The vegetarians among us learn to be very suspicious at the buffet table once they discover these flakes in the raw banana fry. Chef Channa says some dishes are enhanced by sprinkling of this dried fish while others, such as sambols, are carried by the flavour. Here's another deviation from traditional Indian cooking which rarely mixes fish into a vegetable dish (unless, of course, you're Bengali!).
Chicago-based food historian Colleen Taylor Sen, the author of "Curry: A Global History" says that food is as much a product of history, identity and religion as it is of geography. "My theory is that the use of ingredients such as Maldive fish (perhaps, a substitute for fish sauces used in South East Asia), blachan (a fish or shrimp paste) and Rampe (screwpine or pandanus) are all a result of Sri Lanka's connections with South East Asia and Indonesia via the Dutch," she says.
In her book, she talks of how Sri Lanka is now home to "a society with a rich colonial past and a cuisine that is a mosaic of Sinhalese, Tamil, Indian, Dutch, Portuguese, Malay and British influence". Since it was a producer of spices, the island became a stopover for ships drawing merchants from the Middle East, Persia and South East Asia.
Colleen says the Portuguese arrived in 1505, and were expelled by the Dutch in 1653. They, in turn, lost the island to the British in 1792. Ten years later, Sri Lanka became a British colony, which is when cinnamon, rubber, sugar, coffee and indigo plantations were established on the island. This is also when they brought in thousands of indentured labourers from India to work for them.
Each country that colonised the island left a palpable influence on both food and culture. The result's delicious, sure.
But, when in Sri Lanka, to really appreciate its nuances, it helps to understand that thousands of years of history designed that simple curry on your plate.

text: I don't care if it's midnight, I want a chai. Actually, I just wanted to try this apple chai that Darby sent me in a trade (thanks!) It really has a delicious slightly bitter (in a good way) chai flavor. Very flavorful, nice & spicy. The spices really linger. Sadly, the most intriguing part of this blend seems to be absent: the apple. Maybe the other flavors are so strong they mask the apple, I don't know. To be fair, my nose is a bit stuffy and I didn't see any apple chunks actually going into my infuser. Actually, there seems to be a squashy flavor more than apple. I'm taking a few points off for not having a better apple flavor, but as a chai, it's great. Now at least I know those Adagio chais that you can make some amazing blends with are tasty!

I had considered the recently-constituted Special Council on Tax Reform and Fairness for Georgians just so much political hooey until I saw who was elected chairman of the council: Adolphus Drewry Frazier Jr.
White House economic adviser Christina Romer is off-message. Her offense is nearly as grave as that of White House spokesman Robert Gibbs, who let slip that Democrats are in danger of losing the House. Romer's indiscretion is an academic paper arguing that tax increases kill growth ... just as the White House prepares to increase taxes.
As promised, I have the latest analysis of the recent primary results, courtesy of Junior E. Lee, general manager of the C. Richard Yarbrough Worldwide Media and Pest Control Company, located over a pool room in Greater Garfield.
Next week school bells will ring and the 2010-11 school year will begin. Some kids will welcome it, others won't. Parents also will likely have mixed feelings about the start of another academic year.
The great Democratic revolution of 2008 is entering its pitiful stage.
Tuesday, July 20, was election day and according to Liberty County Supervisor of Elections Ella Golden, everything went smoothly. Liberty County voters were able move efficiently through the voting process and choose the candidates of their choice. However, when it came to actually reporting the results from each precinct, "smooth" isn't the first word that comes to mind.
What, you may ask, am I going to say this week about the primary elections? The answer: nothing.
Georgia education headlines are too often made for wrong reasons. National test scores that disappoint, high schools that underperform and the recent Atlanta Public Schools cheating scandal do nothing to recommend Georgia as forward-thinking and a place to create a business and raise a family. Embracing an aggressive plan to fast forward choices in education would seem like a no-brainer.
When it comes to the tax climate, Georgia ranks middle of the road or worse in several categories, according to the Tax Foundation. The state ranks 29th (50 being the worst) in the State Business Tax Climate Index, a judge of the state tax structure's promotion of economic growth, and has the 23rd highest top income tax rate at 6 percent. The middle of the road is better than the ditch, but why not strive for the fast lane?
We don't know who will be the next governor of Georgia. But we do know he -- or she -- faces a mountain of challenges and a wide range of issues that require leadership.
I met Ian Adleman when he, as a reporter for the Waterside News, was covering one of The Dolphin Project surveys. Being an old codger I am totally distrustful of anyone under the age of 40. Ian is one of those exceptions you run across every now and then that gives you hope. Now that is saying a lot for a displaced snow bird bumming a ride on my boat!
If there's a characteristic American trait, it's moving ahead. Our great 19th-century chronicler, Alexis de Tocqueville, noted how Americans would leave their new homes - onto the next thing! - even before they had a chance to finish the roofs.
Just when you might have thought things were getting better, state Labor Commissioner Michael Thurmond goes and rains on the parade.

Allen Peake is a man on a mission. The five-term Republican state representative from Macon is the driving force behind proposed legislation to legalize medical marijuana in Georgia. He may succeed this year after suffering a setback in 2014 when the House and Senate got into a bit of political brinksmanship at the last minute and failed to pass his bill, which had sailed through the House with only four negative votes.
I know, most resolutions are already ditched by Jan. 8, but if recycling more or being more environmentally minded was one of your resolutions (and it should have been), then I have an opportunity for you.
My parents, according to the world's definition of "cool," were not. Neither drank, nor did either ever possess a credit card. Groceries and clothing were paid for in cash, utilities paid by check, and the only monthly payments they ever allowed themselves were a mortgage for a house, a short-term loan for another farm, and a couple of cars bought, over time, and paid for quickly.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was founded in 1909. It is the nation's oldest and largest civil-rights organization.

"What I am saying is, we spend too much time, we waste time, the city's time that the people have us up here to do. We waste that time. We looked at it the first of October and November and December, we're still going over the same stuff. Why don't we go on and do what we're supposed to do? Get it approved and move on to the next issue that this council is supposed to be doing".


text: Do a Little Dance.. Make a Little Love..Dec 29, 2000 With thoughts of the New Year looming just ahead, I wondered how best to celebrate the coming of the next millennium and express my excitement at the possibilities it holds for all of us. What better way than to throw a huge party. (Excuse my husband�s laughter in the background, please. He�s cackling uncontrollably because, you see, I�m not exactly a party girl. <stern teacher look> However, I�ll let you in a little secret. I used to be.. in a nice, well-behaved sort of way, of course.. Now, whether or not I choose to throw this phenomenal party is up for debate, but whatever the case, I have my groove-all-night song list ready for play.. party or not! The following, my humble attempt.. and my extremely varied picks for the millennium disco/dance party mix (and don�t yell at me for choosing some rather obvious tunes; it is my party, after all, and I�ll cry if I want to!) Hurts So Good John Cougar Mellencamp Reminiscent of my younger �skating rink days� (didn�t everyone have those?), I still love to hear this on the radio. Break My Stride Matthew Wilder I think the words of this one make it so appealing to me.. (except for grammar awful enough to make me want to sob uncontrollably).. �Ain�t nothin� gonna break my stride, nobody gonna slow me down, oh no, I�ve got to keep on movin�� <warbling off key> YMCA Village People Overplayed? Probably. Doesn�t mean it isn�t worthy of my list. This song was the biggest hit of all last spring when my sixth graders had �Hippie Day� at school. At the conclusion of our unit of study on the 60�s and 70�s, we had a party.. complete with tie-dye and bell-bottoms. Watch 12 year old boys lip-sync in afros to this one and, sadly, you�ll remember it for the rest of your life. Celebration Kool and the Gang Ah, yes. Good times. Come on. Let�s Talk About Sex Salt-N-Pepa Nothing like this one to stir up a little bit of interest. Quick tip: If your parents are chaperoning your junior prom, it might not be the best idea to shake it up to this on the dance floor. My best friend�s dad made a startlingly profound statement after that fateful evening. �I didn�t know Baptist gals could dance like that!� I don�t think my poor father will ever be the same. (That�ll teach him to help mom bring the punch and end up staying four hours!) I Will Survive Gloria Gaynor �At first I was afraid, I was petrified..� Not any more, baby. Give It Up KC and the Sunshine Band Believe it or not, my high school band played this when I was in like seventh grade. I thought the tune was so cool. Just think how excited I was to discover it was a �real� song. Ring My Bell Anita Ward I�m curious. What bell are we actually ringing here? That was a rhetorical question. No answers necessary in the comment section. <laugh> Brick House Commodores 36, 24, 36. Yeah. 24? Maybe when I was 14. Stayin� Alive Bee Gees Ah, ah, ah, ah, stayin� alive, stayin� alive. Okay, I�ll stop singing. Please disperse. Nothing to see here. It�s Raining Men The Weather Girls Hallelujah! Dancing Queen Abba My friend Lenore is the true dancing queen. Too bad the club we went to over the summer was playing very un-danceable music. You Spin Me (Right Round Baby) Dead or Alive Adam Sandler�s version of this song in �The Wedding Singer� is funnier. But the true rendition is what I prefer. Like a record, baby. Maniac Michael Sembello I�ll never dance like her because she�s dancin� like she�s never danced before. I�ll just have to accept my inferiority. Fame Irene Cara Yeah, I wanna live forever too! Mickey Toni Basil <waiting for laughter to subside> Seen the video? Those girls were cheerleaders? Please. The 1999 re-release with a disco groove added is fantastic. Hey Mickey! Push It Salt-n-Pepa I like this. It�s different. Get Down Tonight KC and the Sunshine Band Funny how there aren�t any other songs by them I like, except the two listed here. <shrug> Do a little dance.. make a little love.. And finally.. you might wanna sit down for this one.. Strokin' Clarence Carter <flashback to look of horror on dad�s face at prom> Bottom line, undisputed, perfect line dancing song ever, explicit lyrics or not. And now, I�m tired. All this dancing has taken its toll. May you groove through the last few minutes of 2000 in style. |

With SoulCalibur V tantalizingly close to release, we're getting pretty excited about stepping into the ring as Ezio Auditore, the latest character with a cameo in the fighting franchise. But what about all the characters that didn't make the cut? Surely they have as much right to get their teeth kicked in as Signore Auditore? We asked the GameSpot community members to name their most wanted and then took to the game's character creator to make their dreams a reality. The first? It's-a-him, Mario!
With the world's favorite plumber rendered with crippling ineptitude perfect accuracy, it was time to move onto the next character--one we could really sink our teeth into.
Having made a less-than-super Meat Boy, we were in need of something truly special to save the SoulCalibur V Character Creation Challenge. And our jobs. Instead, this happened.
With one of gaming's most cherished franchises soundly defiled, you'd be forgiven for thinking we might stop there. You'd also be wrong.
So there you have it: four game characters, one in-depth character creator, and two enthusiastic idiots. Challenge complete!

Chosen by Zagat as one of the best steak houses in Westchester County, The Willett House quells discerning appetites with scrumptious steaks and seafood. On the prix fixe dinner menu, starters such as lobster bisque and gorgonzola salad prime bellies for entrees such as chicken francese and a 10-ounce filet mignon au poivre coated in a peppercorn cream sauce. After lulling anyone who eats it into a content, satiated slumber, the 2-pound lobster (an additional $5) infiltrates diners' dreams and pinches them awake again. As they finish off the table's shared bottle of wine, each patron can choose from a tray of fresh, house-made desserts and wash down the treat with a cup of coffee or tea. Surrounding the main dining room, a pressed-tin ceiling and exposed-brick walls augment the 90-square-foot mural depicting life in turn-of-the-century Port Chester, when the seaside town still led the world in exports of soda jerks' red-striped hats.
The Restaurant at Rowayton Seafood values customer loyalty as much as the freshness of their seafood, and both have contributed to it's recent success. The seafood is about as local as it gets?the executive chef sources the eatery's lobster, clams, and mussels from the Rowayton Seafood Market right next door. This freshness is crafted into a seasonal menu, paired with the scent of salty coastal air, assails the senses in the sunlit, harbor-side dining room, where diners warm themselves by the fireplace or gaze out onto Five Mile River.
The chef's inspired dishes, which won Connecticut magazine's 2013 award for best seafood, draw on American and international recipes. The grilled domestic swordfish keeps things simple paired with Farro grains and sundried tomato ragu accented with smoked paprika and basil oils. The sea scallops, drizzled with an applewood bacon vinaigrette, are presented over a sweet corn puree and paired with roasted beets and caramelized onions. More than 120 international and domestic wines suggest endless pairings?from appetizers of fried calamari to desserts of housemade pie and seasonal cr?me br?l?e. Free valet parking is available, and guests can also dock their boat at the restaurant by reservation.
Combining their freshly caught fish with ecologically sound practices, the Restaurant has partnered with the Monterey Bay Aquarium and the Seafood Watch Program to serve sustainable seafood and help protect the balance of marine life.
The seafood experts at The Fishery Grill lure diners in with a dinner menu packed with hot chowders, chilled, raw bar morsels, and fresh seafood entrees cooked to order. A quartet of manhattan or new england clam, seafood, or white-bean chowders ($4.75–$5.75) fills cups and bowls as freshly shucked oysters relax in the hammock of their half shell ($2.25–$2.75 each). Chefs proffer grilled, roasted, Cajun, and fried preparations of fillets and shellfish, such as flounder ($19.95) and sea scallops ($21.95), all accompanied by a choice of two sides. Maine lobsters (market price) appear on plates steamed, broiled, or stuffed with crabmeat like two-thirds of an underwater turducken.
With fish gliding by overhead and views of the water stretching out beneath the tall windows, it's no wonder Ocean Restaurant and Lounge was voted by diners as having the Best Ambiance around. But the surroundings are just the beginning?the real star is the cuisine. A seafood-centric menu touts a well-curated selection of reinvented American classics from brunch through dinner. A popular destination for romantic waterfront dinners, the evening menu kicks off with selections from the raw bar before graduating to entrees such as branzino, and steak.
Maura's Kitchen is casual and cozy, but the food--roast pork, stews, fish and empanadas--is big and bold. Latin American flavors color the menu, which intermixes tapas such as yuca fries with full-size entrees including pollo a la brasa--Peruvian rotisserie chicken. Choose from three types of fresh ceviche, or pair shrimp with sauteed steak for an irresistible surf-and-turf combination, like a charming mermaid geologist.
