WASHINGTON, DC—Over the last decade, female drunk driver arrests have increased 36% (FBI, Crime in US 2010). Impaired driving has long been perceived to be a predominantly male-based problem. In an effort to learn more about the magnitude of the female drunk driver problem, The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility commissioned a report, State of Knowledge: Female Drunk Drivers, and released it at its annual holiday education event on Capitol Hill with the Congressional Stop DUI Caucus in attendance. The report was compiled by the Traffic Injury Research Foundation (TIRF).
The State of Knowledge: Female Drunk Drivers report notes that since the late 1980's, female involvement in DWI events has become a growing concern. The literature and research review examined the overall problem, characteristics of the offenders, involvement in drunk driving incidents, and availability of effective strategies.
"Gathering available data is crucial to establishing a framework for future solutions to this growing problem," said lead researcher, Robyn Robertson of TIRF.
"Along with the Congressional Stop DUI Caucus, we want to keep those numbers on the decline. We trust the newly released report on female drunk drivers will encourage traffic safety professionals to take an effective approach when addressing female drunk drivers," said Ralph Blackman, President and CEO of The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility.
The event on Capitol Hill today included a panel discussion on the issue. Jayne O'Donnell, USA Today Consumer Reporter and "Confident Consumer" Columnist, moderated the event and panel members included:
- Robyn Robertson, President and CEO of the Traffic Injury Research Foundation
- Stefanie Wilder-Taylor, blogger and best-selling author of Sippy Cups Are Not for Chardonnay and Naptime is the New Happy Hour
- Assistant Chief Patrick Burke, DC Metropolitan Police Department
- Kurt Erickson, Washington Regional Alcohol Program
Attendees at the event listened to panel members discuss the increase in drunk driving arrests of females from their individual perspectives and areas of expertise. At the end of the panel, the format was opened up to include a Q&A from attendees. Materials were also available on the Washington Regional Alcohol Program's (WRAP) SoberRide initiative in the DC metro area for the Holiday Season.
About the Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility
The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility is a not-for-profit organization funded by distillers including Bacardi U.S.A., Inc.; Beam, Inc., Brown-Forman; Constellation Brands, Inc.; DIAGEO; Hood River Distillers, Inc.; Pernod Ricard USA; and Sidney Frank Importing Co., Inc. Through legislation, education, and public awareness campaigns, The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility promotes responsible decision-making regarding beverage alcohol, focusing on drunk driving and underage drinking. For more information on The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility please visit: www.responsibility.org.
The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility was the first to turn research into action on the hardcore drunk driver more than 10 years ago. The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility's concern about the particular impact of alcohol consumption and women dates back to the B4UDrink BAC Educator which provides a clear indication that the same amount of alcohol affects women differently than men. Also, with the Society for Women's Health Research as a partner, The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility addressed the health implications of alcohol consumption for young women in the Girl Talk program over 5 years ago.

The assertion that the EP45-DS3L needs "a recent kernel (2.6.26+) in order for the SATA disk controller to be detected" is actually incorrect. I have this motherboard, and not such a recent kernel. The trick is to set SATA/IDE to AHCI in the BIOS.
Phoronix: Gigabyte EP45-DS3L & EP45T-DS3R
Intel's P45 Chipset was released this summer along with the P43, G43, and G45 Chipsets as the mainstream Eaglelake alternative to Intel's current flagship X48 Chipset. Though over the older X48 motherboards, the P45 has the advantages of using Intel's newer ICH10 / ICH10R Southbridge and support for up to 16GB of DDR2/DDR3 memory, which is double that of what's supported by the X48. Today we are looking at two Intel P45 motherboards compliments of Gigabyte with their EP45-DS3L and EP45T-DS3R. The EP45-DS3L and EP45T-DS3R are just two of Gigabyte's motherboards bearing the P45 Chipset but in total they have eight different motherboards using this version of the Eaglelake Chipset.
The assertion that the EP45-DS3L needs "a recent kernel (2.6.26+) in order for the SATA disk controller to be detected" is actually incorrect. I have this motherboard, and not such a recent kernel. The trick is to set SATA/IDE to AHCI in the BIOS.
Speaking of 'tricks' , I have a EP43-DS3L (not P45) and what you said is true - enabling AHCI will enable older kernels detect this mobo.
However do NOT enable AHCI for two reasons. I saw that the iSrc AHCI bios or whatever it is, takes a loong time to start up. And most most importantly, I get half the hard-drive speeds. Example, 'hdparm -t /dev/sda' gives 55MB/s with AHCI enabled and a whopping 110MB/s with AHCI disabled.
So, best is to disable AHCI and use 2.6.26+. (In fact, 2.6.26 didn't recognize the ALC888 audio, although 2.6.24 does. 22.214.171.124 solves all issues.)
That said, do enable the native sata feature just below the ahci option. (I dont know why they disabled both by default in the bios.)
Meanwhile, I also have a Wolfdale E8400 CPU and it had detected the 9x multiplier correctly. However, overclocking is limited and I could *only* go till 3.6GHz (9X, 400MHz)- but its very very stable and cool (~40C idle, 55C loaded) even at this point.
Overall, this EP43-DS3L was the cheapest mobo with overclocking for e8400 at about < 100 USD.
You shouldn't have to upgrade your whole OS to use new hardware. There needs to be downloadable drivers, and easily installable ones at that.
When is Linux going to catch up to the 21st century? =/
Ubuntu 8.04 was supposed to have some feature of being able to install drivers on older kernels or whatnot, and solving this problem, but I guess that didn't pan out.
hdas: Not my experience (but my mobo is ICH9R).
Hdparm -t /dev/sda gets 74.76 in AHCI mode, but only 52.55 with SATA as PATA.
Yfrwlf: You don't have to upgrade the whole O/S. Just the kernel. Depending upon your distribution upgrading the kernel is as easy as installing a driver update package (same process, once the kernel gets into repository).
Well there are at least 2 drivers possible for the legacy mode, the old one creates a /dev/hdX device, the newer one (from libata) also creates /dev/sdX. So it is not only a white/black thing. Debian for example uses the old style drivers - because there are no UUIDs used, since Ubuntu 8.04 there are only libata drivers active - if you have to switch between old and new you have to use UUIDs, don't forget that when you use /dev/hdX currently... UUID together with initramfs.
Not to mention I should never have to reboot. Modprobe plugs in a driver automatically, and that's the way everything should be. Fully hot-pluggable. Again, I should not have to upgrade my kernel or my OS and reboot just to install a driver. This isn't Winblowz.
I'm talking about a feature here. I'm not rehashing how things are now, I know how things are now. I'm talking about the way things should be. You shouldn't have to have distro maintainers, they should be put to work doing other things like, oh, actually programming how about and helping out Linux, not doing a bunch of redundant work with software when it should have only needed to be done once. There should be one Linux repository, called the Internet. Ideally that driver should be easily available in my repository, always, no matter the distro I'm running, but if not it should be easily installable from a website and better yet, I should be able to add the URL of that driver or program when I do so, so that I can get automatic updates from then on out.
That's the way things should be. Easy, modular, simple, automatic, so it's nothing against you, but I don't accept the answer of "just do it the old way and be happy". Open source shouldn't just be open source code, it should also mean open accessibility, in any and all forms and ways possible.
It is not always easy like this. First of all it is not modprobe that automatically loads the drivers, it is udev. Also when you enable more drivers than before you can run into new issues - like when you use budget-av (for DVB) but you enable (and load) snd-aw2 then your DVB is dead. Another example is the new snd-pcsp driver. If you enable it and you don't let it load behind other drivers your sound will be mixed up. PulseAudio still has problems using the alsa drivers in the right order - thats why you hear somethings sound from your pc speaker with new Ubuntu. It is _not_ your hd

LSD, marijuana, mescaline, or any drug, gives you only a good sleep, and in that good sleep you dream. Those dreams are colorful, and your life is so poor and your life is such a misery that you would even like to live those dreams rather than live in this miserable life. You would choose - if that was the only choice - to live in a beautiful dream rather than to live in this miserable life. This life is like a nightmare. Even if a drug is only going to give you a luminous dream, colorful, three-dimensional, why not take it? - because what is there in this life? Because life is in such a mess, you choose dreams.
Drugs, alcohol, or other sorts of intoxicants have always been used by religious people, but through them you never move into reality. Through them you fall into a torpor, into a coma, and in that coma you can have dreams.
And if you have been thinking too much about God, you can see God, because you can project your own dreams. Dreams can be directed and guided. If you have been thinking too much of Christ, then while under the influence of a drug Christ will appear to you. This is your own mind playing games. If you have been too much attached to Krishna then he will be standing there with his flute on his lips, singing and dancing. If a Hindu, a devotee of Krishna, takes LSD he will see Krishna, and a Christian will see Jesus, and a Buddhist will see Buddha - but these are mind projections.
Reality is miserable, but don't hanker after dreams, because if you hanker after dreams then there is only one way: how to help the conscious become unconscious again. A small part has come up out of unconsciousness, and that is the beauty of a human being; agony and ecstasy both, but that is the beauty of a human being - that he has become an island in a vast unconscious. This island has to grow higher and higher so it becomes a continent. Through drugs it will again go underwater, you will live again the life of an animal or a tree: beautiful in themselves but not worthy of you, because you are losing so much. And you could have attained reality; that island could have become a continent.
But not only drugs - there are other subtle means also to help the conscious become unconscious. Through music it can be done, through chanting it can be done. If you repeat a mantra continuously you will fall asleep, because anything monotonous brings a coma.
They are subtle means, not like drugs on the surface. In every temple, church, it is going on - and temples and churches are against drugs, and they don't know what they are doing. They are also using subtle drugs, not so crude as LSD or marijuana but still drugs - because when you chant a certain word continuously it gives you sleep, it cannot give you anything else. You relax. The very chanting gives you a deep boredom. The same word "Ram, Ram, Ram," you go on, you go on, you go on. What will you do? Because mind remains alert only if something new is happening, otherwise mind goes to sleep. If something new is happening then mind is alert. If nothing new is happening, only, "Ram, Ram, Ram," a chanting, and you know that again and again it will happen, infinitely, the mind starts feeling sleepy.

Got my invite. Now if only I actually had a desktop Linux box...
Still searching for a good Mac-Mini-like Linux box.
I missed out on the invite. How has the BETA been going anyway?
I am on Debian Wheezy/sid 64bit.
I haven't tested the beta version of TF2(it didn't show up in my list) but the "normal" one and I got the same problem. After looking after a solution in many posts, I found and try this:
I added these two lines in .bashrc (the user one not root)
export LANG=C;
export LC_NUMERIC=C;
Then, I was able to start and play TF2. The only issue I encourted was about missing letters(replaced by blank spaces) in some text like "W lcome in ..." but TF2 ran quiet well.
For information, check if you client version is up to date(directly in the Steam client), I did it and it worked.
I hope it will help you.

Any of you guys testing the games with open drivers (non intel that is)?? Are they good enough??
Goddamit, ever since I upgraded to Fedora 17 my binary AMD driver got broken..
I guess I'll just create a separate Ubuntu partition for testing

5 Ways to Make the Most Money at Your Garage Sale
Yesterday, I wrote about drawing in crowds to your garage sale. I mean, after all,, if there are no people then there is no sale. Today, we're going to talk about how to actually sell your items successfully.
5 Ways to Make the Most Money at Your Garage Sale
1. Group Items Together: Try to avoid the my-garage-just-threw-up look and take the time to organize your sale. The majority of people tend to avoid junk pile sales, organization is key.
2. Keep the Stories to Yourself: Sometimes we become attached to certain items and other items have real sentimental value. At the end of the day, your attachment does not mean the item is worth more money. Keep that in mind when pricing, sentimental value does not mean monetary value.
3. Research Your Prices: Utilize eBay, Craigslist and other websites to find the value of your items. It is so important to price just right and it's easy to do, all you need is a little research!
4. Clean Your Stuff: Yep, that's right. A little water will go a long way! I can't tell you how many garage sales I have been to where it looks like their items just came out of a mud puddle. Mud won't sell kids toys nor clothes. It is very important that your items remain clean and organized.
5. Keep it Short: A lot of people do 2 day garage sales or even 3 days, for the most part, the majority of your traffic will come that very first day. That doesn't mean it's not a good idea, it's simply something to keep in mind. If you advertise your sale well and if you price reasonably, your items could easily be gone on the very first day!

KDE can be fully accelerated, like Gnome Shell, and I noticed basically the same thing as you (running an old jhbuild of Gnome Shell on an old netbook and the same on a quad core intel with discrete graphics). The issues that are occurring seem related to specific hardware/software combinations. Basically both of us are running pretty old hardware which is pretty well supported (I'm assuming you're using the OSS drivers for the Radeon) and one netbook is much like another.
Am I wrong about this?
OpenSUSE 11.4's kernel doesn't have FOSS Radeon support for Llano, so that rules out my Llano desktop and laptop for any meaningful testing. Being that my PhenomII/HD4650 system isn't hooked up right now, I opted to test my wife's Athlon II/HD4200 laptop.
The laptop is still running an old Ubuntu 10.04 installation with the initial FOSS 3d support, and runs Compiz admirably, with every effect enabled, wobbly windows, exploding windows, paper-airplane windows, desktop cylinder, etc... All running smoothly on a 2 y/o IGP and a 2 y/o operating system.
1. Booted up OpenSUSE, everything seems to be going OK.
2. I open a few random applications, and move around to different virtual desktops. It seems pretty smooth, much better than previous KDE experiences.
3. I attempt to go all-out and turn on more desktop effects. I get a message saying that everything I tried to turn on can't be turned on, and also numerous effects that were already supposed to be on by default can't be turned on.
All in all, it was a huge improvement in speed, and although it could barely do any desktop effects, it didn't actually crash or show any screen corruption during the brief time I tested it.
However, the fact that most of the desktop effects can't be turned on doesn't instill confidence, nor does it make me want to recommend it for people with AMD hardware.
What desktop effects that are actually useful were disabled?
If my point was that KDE supports AMD GPUs poorly, then the question would be: do any of those effects work on Nvidia or Intel GPUs?
If they do, then it completely validates my point. If not, then the questions is: why on earth are they putting such a half-baked buggy feature into a so-called "stable" release of KDE, and then expecting people not to form a negative opinion of KDE?
I'll even take it one step further, I have Pentium IV, Core2 and Sandy Bridge machines available to me at work, and I may still some older Nvidia Quadro PCI cards laying around. Sometime next week, I'll compare OpenSUSE 11.4 on all of those various machines, and report back. My guess is that those machines will be somewhat better supported than the 2 AMD machines I've already tested.
none of the issues you bring up here in the thread are known to the KWin developers - they are not reported in KDE's bugtracker. If you want to improve you should report the bugs you find to the developers with all required information so that it can get fixed in future releases.
But I think the bugtracker is the wrong place for it. What is described here are user support issues: something is going wrong badly and there are people on e.g. forum.kde.org who could help. KDE also offers #kde on freenode and there are also user support mailing lists. I am very sure that these issues can be resolved so that you can have a pleasant user experience.
Now to get on the claims that the effects do not work. I am sorry but that is wrong. I am typing here on a system using R300G driver, mostly I'm using R600G and there is no effect not supported on such drivers (some tweaks might be required, e.g. Invert Effect is only supported on R300G with OpenGL ES but not with OpenGL).
If brand new hardware fails that is nothing KDE can do about - we don't have the hardware. Concerning the mentioned crash of X: KDE could work around it (and does so by ensuring that you can only crash X once), but it is wrong. If an XClient is able to crash X it is a possible security vulnerability as in the worst case this could be used to execute arbitrary code as the user owning the X server process (most likely root). I hope we all agree that such crashes have to be fixed in the X server and not worked around in KDE as it affects more than just KDE.
I also just checked my bug mail directory and we did not have any report in 2011 about crashing X servers when using KWin. Whatever you experienced it is not reported in our bug tracker, so we do not even have a chance to do anything about it.
Given what you wrote about the experience with KWin on the brand new hardware I even doubt that it supports any OpenGL yet. KWin did not start with compositing enabled, which is a clear indication that something failed and trying to enforce it resulted in a crash of X. I am pretty sure that also Compiz does not work and e.g. Unity-2D was used as the fallback.
Concerning the live CD I want to mention that those are special beasts and might differ from the real experience. Especially we as KDE do not have any influence on how the distributions build the live CDs. I never tried the openSUSE 11.4 live CD, but I can say that it comes with Plasma 4.6.0 - our current release is 4.7.2. It might be that there is some issue with compositing on the live CD. It might be that it starts into failsafe mode where compositing is disabled. This would explain why none of the effects worked even after checking them. And trying to think as a distributor I can understand why they would go for security and disable compositing on an installation media.
a)I'm lying.(and others in the thread who have made similar claims are also lying). or
b)I'm not doing it right, or
c)I didn't take the time to find those magic settings to make it work right.
I'm sorry dude, but all 3 of those answers are wrong. I'm trying to figure out if you actually believe what you're saying, or if you are trying to perpetuate some bizarre agenda where you knowingly waste your entirely life writing/maintaining deliberately broken software, for god-know's-what reasons... The only 2 ideas that really explain your behaviour are either that you're bat-scheisse crazy, or that you've accepted money from somebody to screw up KDE on-purpose. TBH, I'm leaning towards the former...

In recent years the investment services industry has faced a broad set of new regulatory requirements, such as MiFID, which have resulted in large implementation projects.
This trend was accelerated by the financial crisis, which forced national and international institutions to release new legislations to protect investors' rights and secure the stability of financial markets. New requirements have to be implemented in shorter periods with a deeper impact on core processes, for example the renewal of the German Securities Act.
Equally importantly, companies have to reduce compliance risks to avoid reputational damage, financial or personal sanctions and run a stable business.
As a result, it is business critical to understand the impact of regulatory requirements on core processes and to implement appropriate risk mitigation tools and controls. In addition, ongoing compliance monitoring shows the effectiveness of the chosen compliance instruments.
How BearingPoint brings value
Our Capital Markets Compliance (CMC) solution helps you identify and evaluate new national and international legislations and implement effective and efficient work programs.

Stately brick and stone buildings of varying styles and a shaded, hillside town green bring everything - lodging, culture, shopping and recreation - within easy reach of strolling pedestrians.
The historic downtown is located on both sides of the river and is full of unique shops. The Vermont Bookstore features great reads and a fine selection of jazz and classical recordings. Nearby are clothing, sporting goods, unusual housewares. Across the river by footbridge there are a number of restaurant to choose from, and more retail outlets at local manufacturers, including pewter, artisan beer, clothing, soap, and wooden toys, games and other products.
Middlebury is host to many distinctive cultural attractions as well, including the Vermont Folklife Center, Henry Sheldon Museum of Vermont History, the UVM Morgan Horse Farm, and Middlebury College Museum of Art. All offer special exhibits and programs as well as permanent displays.
The Middlebury College Center for the Arts offers a full schedule of dance performances, stage productions, and concerts during the academic year. Folk music and family entertainment are tradtions at the summer Festival on the Green. And in the fall and winter the After Dark Series invites visitors, residents and students for special performances, while Town Hall Theater hosts theater productions, performances and art exhibits throughout the year.
The Middlebury area offers an extraordinary range of outdoor activities, including hiking, biking, golf, kayaking, fly-fishing, bird watching, alpine and cross-country skiing. The Middlebury College Bowl and several nearby Nordic and snowshoe centers offer great winter fun. Middlebury College also operates an eighteen-hole golf course. The Trail Around Middlebury is accessible for gentle hikes right from downtown; the Green Mountain National Forest terrain offers more challenging terrain and access to Vermont's Long Trail. The area is also known for excellent bicycling in the rolling farmlands and foothills of the Green Mountains, and area fitness centers sponsor local triathlons and road races.

The Gathering Storm - Wheel of Time Book 12 Official Discussion NO SPOILERS
This is THE official SPOILER FREE thread to discuss your reaction to The Gathering Storm by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson, the 12th book in The Wheel of Time. We realize some people are faster readers than others and as such, people may finish the book and post here before others have had a chance to acquire and read the book.
We also realize people DON'T want to be spoiled. That is, some folks may want to pop into the thread just to see the reactions the book elicits in people rather than the fate of certain characters.
So please, if you want to discuss the book in this thread, please do not spoil the plot of the book in any way. Don't tell us that, for example, Rand grows a tail, wings and a third eye if those events happen in the book. We set up the other SPOILER discussion thread for that.
Because this is one of the biggest genre book releases of the year (and last few years) we will be very strict about monitoring the use of spoilers.
We don't even want to ask people to use the spoiler tag function in this thread. If you sign up for e-mail notifications, the vBulletin code will NOT translate into the e-mail and we want to try to keep those who wish to be unspoiled left that way.
Again, we want to encourage people to discuss the book at their heart's content while also not damaging the reading experience for others, which is why we set up the two threads for the book. We may eventually merge the two threads after a few months have passed.
One of the mods will come back here on the 27th and open up the thread for discussion. Until then it will be closed.
October 26th, 2009, 09:16 PM #2
Let the discussions...BEGIN!

I thought this was really well done. Sanderson did well and there is plenty of juicey stuff for the hardcore fans. As always, full thought are avaible at the blog.

I am hoping to pick up my book today - it awaits me as a preorder. I have been frantically trying to get through my reread of KoD - skimming over long descriptions of what people are wearing and rehashing previous events. I got the call on the weekend that the book had arrived but could not have it till today - I accused the fellow of being a tease which I think he found somewhat confusing and strange.

A very good read. The book had a fair amount of pace with several impressive world changing events. It is clear what the main events of the next book will be (the title is a bit of a clue) - roll on next year

One of the best books in the series. It has a feel very similar to "The Fires of Heaven" in terms of pacing. TGS has rekindled my enthusiasm for this series, and makes me optimistic that we might actually get an ending that lives up to expectations (something I had thought impossible after slogging through Books 8-10).
Sanderson did an amazing job with this book.
October 27th, 2009, 05:13 PM #7
Ser Jaime and Science Guy - did this not come out like today? You are done? I just got mine in my hands and I cant bloody wait. I have officially shelved the reread. Just read a good summary on Wikipedia. God bless Wikipedia.

Started the prologue last night. I savoured every word. I dont know who wrote what i.e. Brandon or Robert, but I am totally into it. I found the intro by Brandon very touching. Made me a little sad all over again.

Reread previous books?
Does Sanderson provide background in the book for someone who read KOD many years ago? Started rereading the books a few months ago but didn't quite make it all the way through.

This release caught me by surprise (been re-reading ASOIAF).
How would you compare the length or word count with prior novels in the WOT series?

I don't know about word count, but it's 784 pages in hardcover. It's a very thick book.
Macmillan website lists the audio version as 34.5 hours long. Knife of Dreams audiobook is 32 hours long. So it's slightly longer than Knife of Dreams. Same page counts in hardcover, but I guess the font in TGS is a bit more tightly spaced.

Great....I'll be picking this up on the way home tonight!
thank you for the response.

After having read/skimmed some of the reviews that went up over the past couple of days (particularly Larry/Alderion and Adam/Werthead's) I feel very good about the series. I've said this before, but Winter's Heart was the last WoT book I read...back during the first week of November 2000 when it released. Over the past couple of years, I'd been getting more and more nostalgic about the series and remembering just what fun I had reading Lord of Chaos into all hours of the night.
With Brandon's involvement, I was further exciting since I think he is such a great storyteller and truly has the passion for the books.

High Waisted Flare Jeans: Stretch denim jeans with a classic higher rise and a straight fit through the hips.
Read what customers are saying about this product:
Rating: 4.33 out of 6 votes cast
High waist bootcut jeans are the best
These are the best jeans ever. Years ago these jeans were 100% cotton and I loved them. These are almost the only jeans that fit me. I have to have a tall size, long torso is hard to fit and the longer legs are great too, even tho I do have to take an inch off. Then for a very long time I didn't see them for sale at Chadwicks. I was getting desperate as my pairs were getting holes and so worn out. A few years ago they finally came back with these with stretch and I bought all the colors. The material was a little thicker and nice, but then they came out with a thinner version and a different fabric mix during the last year or so, but that is okay as they are still the same great style. I just love them for me and I have also given some to a friend who is even taller than I am. She loves them too. She could not believe how comfortable they are. She still needs more, but they don't have many sizes left now. Please Chadwicks, bring them back again. Us tall sized gals need more and I need
Monkey's Mom
Good looking pants and the high waist is very comfortable. However, if you are not a fan of the "skin tight" spandex look, these are not for you. I ordered the correct size and hemmed them, after washing they shrank just enough to look and feel poured on. They do not bind because of the spandex, but I don't like them.
Great Fit for the Hipless
I'm 5'2 with a long torso, short legs, and slim hips. It's VERY difficult for me to find flattering pants. The bootcut fit of most, said to be universally flattering, looks terrible on me (too low cut, huge waist gap, makes my size 2 bum look huge somehow). These high-waist flare-leg jeans are JUST RIGHT. The waist fits snugly. The fabric has enough stretch to hold its shape nicely, and 'gives' so you can move normally. The rise is high enough to sit and bend comfortably without fear of flashing anyone in the back or exposing belly in the front (but not so high you look like a mid-20th-century leftover). The gentle flare balances out the whole look. They're long enough to wear with heels. The back pockets are proportionate, not like barn doors and not strangely placed.I own 3--dark, medium, and light wash--currently. I wish there were more colors! I'd find a way to buy them all. I missed out on the black, but plan to get the white.
These High-Waist Jeans are awesome
These High-Waist Jeans in Tall size are awesome! I only wish I'd found them sooner. Now it appears they are running out of sizes and colors. Hope they bring these back! Fit is perfect and flattering. Material is soft and comfortable. Inseam length noted is true. I need more of these!
Glendale, CA
Love these Jeans!
Initially I purchased a pair in the dark wash color. Loved them immediately! They fit great (I am an 8T), launder great and I love the denim fabric used. So I then ordered a pair in black - same result - Love the way they fit and love the denim; so I then ordered a pair in white. The white is a twill fabric not denim. I am disappointed in the fabric and do not understand why the same denim was not used only in white. However, the fit great so I kept them but they do need ironing after laundering. I went ahead and ordered the light wash thinking this pair would at least be the same as the first two, just a lighter color. WRONG! The good news is that they fit great, bad news is this denim is thinner - launders better than the white but not quite as good as the black and dark wash. I am keeping them because I love the fit! and still recommend them!

We ate lunch here and I ordered the GF penne pasta with meat sauce. It took a few extra minutes to prepare but we were not in a rush. It was delicious! Our server got me the allergy menu when I asked (Gluten free is on it) and was very helpful. Probably not a good place for celiacs, but Italian food is like that.
Have gluten free pasta, but was overcooked once and undercooked another time
760 Jefferson Rd., Rochester, NY 14623
Came for Gluten Free Pasta, after being served drinks, told they no longer carry it! There are a few other non pasta menu options.
2001 N Rainbow Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89108-7050
No gluten free pasta anymore. had to leave after a long wait :/
12148 S Apopka Vineland Rd., Orlando, FL 32836
They got rid of all their gluten free options. You can get grilled chicken but who wants that. I can make my own grilled chicken for way cheaper.
8850 Rosedale Hwy, Bakersfield, CA 93312
Update....this location no longer has a GF menu, or pasta due to cross contamination issues (according to the manager). They DO have GF items, but if you are coming for pasta you will be dissatisfied.
1958 State Route 23, Wayne, NJ 07470
They no longer have gluten free pasta as an option.
1915 Hampton Inn Ct., Winston Salem, NC 27103
They discontinued their gluten free pasta which was the reason to go there for me. No thanks to the only option of grilled chicken and broccolini! No longer celiac friendly.
2641 Prince William Pkwy., Woodbridge, VA 22192
on 3/21/15 I went and was told they had nothing gluten free on the menu and couldn't make anything gluten free. The staff even checked with the kitchen to make sure.
8620 Research Dr, Charlotte, NC 28262
Unfortunately, my celiac husband always gets his favorite meal. So all I can say is that the chicken Alfredo is excellent and he has never been sick afterwards. Update!!! Changed my review to 1star because they have removed all gluten free pasta from the menu!
3111 Preston Rd., Frisco, TX 75034-9444
We had a nice waiter, but we were informed that fbey no longer carry GF pasta because it could get cross contaminated. Won't be eating there any longer.
8156 W Bowles Ave., Littleton, CO 80123-3050
So sad that they no longer offer gluten free pasta! Used to be one of my favorites.
8620 Research Dr, Charlotte, NC 28262
I asked for a gluten free menu and I was told they didn't have one. Then I tried to order a chicken dish and was told they had run out. I ended up just eating a salad. It was definitely not the meal I was hoping for.
2100 Louisiana Blvd. NE, Albuquerque, NM 87110
This place no longer has gluten free noodles. Don't bother.
14904 N Dale Mabry Hwy., Tampa, FL 33618
They won't do gluten free because it's a "liability." I will NEVER give them business.
26641 Aliso Creek Rd., Aliso Viejo, CA 92656-2882
Romano's no longer has GF pasta. Options are very limited for those with celiac disease.
5925 Kingstowne Towne Ctr., Alexandria, VA 22315-5877
this location has ZERO KNOWLEDGE of gluten allergies.the manager I talked to when I asked about the potatoes he said they were safe if I wasnt celiac, when asked why he told me there was bread crumbs in them but not that much so it should be fine...no mention the gelato comes.with biscoti on top.. no gf menu at all, it was a lot of questionss but I know I will probably be sick later as I am gluten intolerant They no longer carry GF Noodles.
10000 West O'Hare Avenue, Chicago, IL 60666
eaten here three times each time staff asked about my GF allergy and explained what items could be substituted no published GF menu not sure kitchen has dedicated space so use caution
1580 North Dale Mabry Highway, Tampa, FL 33607
Romano ' s no longer has a gluten free menu. the hostess was awful and said she thought there was one menu item that was gluten free!
3000 184th St SW, Lynnwood, WA 98037
Romano's at the Alderwood Mall is no longer carrying the gluten free pasta. They do have some creative ways to make a gluten free meal but what's the point of Italian without the pasta.
13652 Jamboree Rd., Irvine, CA 92602
they dont have gluten free pasta anymore. just went in and sat down to eat and then the waitress told me. So I left....very awkwardly. oh well.
7607 FM 1960 Rd. W, Houston, TX 77070
I was told by their wait staff that they no longer have a gluten free menu at this restaurant. I went elsewhere. March 2, 2015
2535 Medical Center Pkwy., Murfreesboro, TN 37129
I have never had a bad experience here and the staff are all well versed in gluten free.
5045 Windward Pkwy., Alpharetta, GA 30004-3890
Used to eat GF pasta here all the time. Last week it was still on the menu so we ordered it. 10 mins later we were told they no longer carry it. Waiter didn't know either. We will not go back even for the family members that are not GF
132 Brandon Town Center Dr., Brandon, FL 33511
They no longer offer a gluten free menu and after speaking with the waiter I was uncomfortable with even ordering.
69-201 Waikoloa Beach Dr #1010, Waikoloa Village, HI 96738
4 stars due to staff understanding of gluten free options and accommodations. Able to make many items on menu gluten free and do have gluten free pasta. Very overpriced and quality of food mediocre.
2111 N Squirrel Rd., Auburn Hills, MI 48326-2351
They got rid of their gf pasta and gf menu.
2001 N Rainbow Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89108-7050
They no longer offer gluten free options so after having to wait we had to leave. They shouldn't say its offered if it isn't.
3410 Highway 190, Mandeville, LA 70471-3102
no longer carry GF pasta.
7205 N Central Expy, Plano, TX 75025
They discontinued their entire gf menu! I don't know why, but I hope it is not because gf people complained!
5100 N 9th Ave., Penascola, FL 32504-8735
This restaurant no longer carries GF pasta, or a gluten free menu. I called prior to going and was misinformed regarding the pasta. When my daughter and I arrived, we had to get creative and the location we visited were more than accommodating to our needs. I hope that all locations learn to inform and educate their employees.
4880 Telephone Rd., Ventura, CA 93003-5234
No gluten free
900 State Rt. 17, Ramsey, NJ 07446
You have to tell them to use clean water. They reuse boiled water for their pasta. Then before you eat, ask them if the water was clean. They are usually very good. Found regular pasta 1x at bottom of my bowl. Got the whole tables meals for free plus a $50 gift card to come back. They were very sorry.
2501 S IH 35, Round Rock, TX 78664
They quit carrying gluten free pasta.
21 Blanchard Cir, Wheaton, IL 60189
They have a GF / Allergen menu and the waiter listened to our requests and assured us it would be taken care of. But I found wheat pasta in my GF pasta which meant they cooked mine in regular pasta water. To be fair, it was Saturday night. Might give them another chance.
5525 28th St SE, Grand Rapids Charter Township, MI 49546
Came here on 1/23/15; they no longer have gluten free options.
740 SE Maynard Rd, Cary, NC 27511
They stopped carrying gluten free pasta! Also they have raised the prices. Not worth stepping foot in the restaurant and this point.
148 Harbison Blvd., Columbia, SC 29212-2204
Terrible! What a joke! Take these clowns off of your gluten free app! They stopped serving gluten free pasta one month ago! So unless you want a salad....don't go! WAS one of my favorite places to eat! I AM SO DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!
4574 Virginia Beach Blvd., Virginia Beach, VA 23462-3004
As of today they do not have the Gluten-Free Penne pasta; they were not able to inform us of whether they will be getting more or not, but they continue to advertise it as a product.
105 E Beacon Dr., Greenville, SC 29615
The Greenville, SC location does not have gluten-free.
4535 Belt Line Rd, Addison, TX 75001
A few gf free options available, but no bread, which is sad, when eating Italian. They do offer gf penne. Waiter seemed completely untrained in gf info, but kind and accommodating all the same. I chose the grilled salmon with broccolini.
5100 N 9th Ave., Penascola, FL 32504-8735
Previous reviewers- Don't be too disappointed. had the gf pasta there about a month ago and got sick as a dog. Had to be cooked in pure gluten juice. Really unfortunate because the family loves the place.
315 N Alafaya Trail, Orlando, FL 32828
They no longer have gluten free pasta. I was so excited to go there until I found out they stopped carrying it. I had the Bibb & bleu salad and the prosciutto and mozzarella appetizer, and everything was delicious, so as long as you don't have your heart set on pasta, you'll be happy!
2535 S State Rd. 7, Wellington, FL 33414-9316
12875 Towne Center Dr., Cerritos, CA 90703
They stopped serving gluten free. When I asked why, it was because they cannot train their kitchen people to avoid cross contamination. So, even while they offer gf penne, they cannot be trusted to avoid cross contamination.
8700 Northwest 18th Terrace, Miami, FL 33172
No longer carries gluten free pasta, though they tried to be accommodating.
9828 Great Hills Trail, Austin, TX 78759
No longer has a gluten free menu! Came her especially for that. A major step backwards in this world!
7245 E Gold Dust Ave., Scottsdale, AZ 85258
no more gf pasta, so they seem to not really care about gluten allergies or celiac anymore. Plus, the service was terrible and my food was cold.
21001 N Tatum Blvd., Suite 4, Phoenix, AZ 85050
Macaroni grill has stopped serving gf pasta so they decided to stop offering a gf menu. instead I got an outdated allergen menu and a rude look from the hostess. I expressed my worries to the waiter about the menu only partially matching the allergen menu, and he said, "I'm pretty sure the recipe hadn't changed for those things.". I went with it and had no problems, but the service was awful and the food was mediocre and cold.
50 South Ave., Burlington, MA 01803
I have been here several times, and depending on the staff helping you depends on your service! Some are very knowledgable while others are not, but their GF pasta is excellent, and I have never been sick as a result of eating here! Hopefully their staff becomes more knowledgable and then I will give them 5 stars!
2400 W Sahara Ave., Las Vegas, NV 89102
They discontinued the gluten free pasta. We left the place.
573 N Stephanie St., Henderson, NV 89014
They discontinued the gluten free pasta the last time I went.

About the Book
Lady Gaga's old friend and former DJ Brendan Jay Sullivan paints a vivid picture of the downtown scene from which she emerged.
Brendan Jay Sullivan was an up-and-coming DJ in New York City when he met Stefani Germanotta, then a struggling artist, in 2006. She was a go-go dancer who sewed her own outfits but had bigger ambitions—she wanted nothing less than to take over the music world.
In this intimate portrait of the budding star who would soon catapult to fame and fortune, the author describes afternoons sitting with Gaga on the floor of her bare Lower East Side apartment, drinking wine from pint glasses and plotting out the pop stardom that awaited her.
Filled with stories of love and heartbreak among Gaga and Sullivan and their circle of aspiring musicians and performers, and set against the vibrant backdrop of the downtown bars and parties of the mid-aughts, Rivington Was Ours is both a love letter to New York and a glimpse behind the veil of one of the biggest musical icons of her generation.
Educator and Librarian Resources
Critical Praise
" Equal parts insightful, funny, romantic and poetic, this is a book that's not just about Gaga but about the magic of the city. Brendan's writing makes you feel like a fly on the wall while history is being made all around you." —"Captain" Kirk Douglas, guitarist for The Roots
"A fascinating and vivid insight into the cauldron that formed a great musician. It's a slice of New York history, go and buy it!" —Andy Rourke, bass guitarist for The Smiths
"Brendan Jay Sullivan is a writer's writer. Yes, he's that good." —Gary Shteyngart, author of Super Sad True Love Story
"Through charm and wit and sheer force of will, Brendan Jay Sullivan has insinuated himself into New York night life, and through his talent with words, he has brought you along as his plus one." —Joe Garden, writer for The Onion

"Richly detailed, funny and poignant. Who knew Lady Gaga's lower-Manhattan dance-club scene of the late 2000s needed a 'Bright Lights, Big City'?" —Steve Knopper, author of Appetite for Self-Destruction: The Spectacular Crash of the Record Industry in the Digital Age
"Brendan Jay Sullivan is the voice of our generation." —Leila Sales, author of This Song Will Save Your Life

A touching memoir. —New York Post
