Dozens of restaurants open around the country every season. What makes one more exciting than another? Track record, for one. When a restaurateur like Stephen Starr announces that he's launching a new venture (like he will this fall with Il Pittore in Philadelphia and Caffè Storico in New York City) the news carries certain expecations. But there are plenty of other things that go into raising new openings across the country to the top of your must-go list.
More fodder for the hype machine? A great underdog story. Nothing highlights the American dream better than a young chef stepping out from his mentor to open his own place — entering the fickle realm of the restaurant industry for the first time. Even better, there's the story of the veteran chef making a triumphant return after some bad breaks, as Govind Armstrong surely hopes to do with Post and Beam next month.
There are also restaurants that garner anticipation because of far less calculated factors. Take for instance, the eatery helmed by a chef who found her way into America's heart due to an appearance on TV. You'd think Tiffani Faison's appearances on Top Chef will draw customers to her new Boston barbecue joint.
Sometimes restaurants have concepts so revolutionary that diners can't help but be drawn to them, like that of Next in Chicago, which allows Grant Achatz to reimagine his restaurant every season. Not every restaurant can expect to burn so brightly, but in looking at the most notable restaurants opening this fall several trends emerged.
Check out the most country's most anticipated fall restaurant openings categorized below by Eat/Dine editors Molly Aronica and Arthur Bovino.
Burgers and Butchery
Burger bars have been hot for a while, and it looks like the trend is not slowing — from Nancy Silverton opening a Shack-style joint in LA to Cathal Armstrong slinging patties in his new place. In a similar vein, restaurants serving up meats butchered and cured in-house are everywhere, such as at Paul Kahan's new Publican Quality Meats.
• District Commons, Washington, D.C.: With Acadiana, TenPenh, Ceiba, and DC Coast under his belt, chef Jeff Tunks has been around D.C. a long time. But this foray into D.C.'s burgeoning burger scene will be his first attempt at counter service. Expect burgers made with wet-aged, whole chuck roasts and brisket, ground in-house (a 3:1 ratio).

• Society Fair, Washington, D.C.: The food hall trend continues to spread. This one, by star D.C. chef Cathal Armstrong and his wife Meshelle will be a "European-style" food market near Howard University that combines a "butchery, bakery, wine bar, and restaurant with 30 outdoor seats and 50 indoor seats."
• Publican Quality Meats, Chicago: An artisan, full-service butcher shop by Paul Kahan that will source meats from local family farms. There will be housemade charcuterie and bread, made-to-order sandwiches for lunch, and down the road, continental-style breakfast at this spot across the street from The Publican.
• Nellcôte, Chicago: Pastas, pizzas, small plates, bachelor's jam (an intense rum and fruit drink), and dishes made in a wood-burning oven. It's been said that Jared Van Camp (Old Town Social) sees this project as his coming out party, a way to show he can do more than just great bar food.
• Bavette's Bar and Boeuf, Chicago: Brendan Sodikoff's (Gilt Bar, Maude's Liquor Bar, The Doughnut Vault) "European steakhouse" concept in River North includes a burger joint at the back of it.
• HD1, Atlanta: Three Flip Burgers, now a hot dog joint. You have to wonder if Richard Blais ever plans to open a real restaurant ever again. Muse over that while sampling the menu, which includes house-ground meats and sausages. Eater Atlanta noted that the chef's own favorites are: "chicken wings with lemon curd and Szechuan pepper, waffle fries with maple-soy, crispy hominy with chile and lime, fennel sausage with San Marzano ketchup, lamb sausage with cranberry and cucumber, fried chicken livers, and the crawfish roll with shrimp head aioli."
• Sputnik, Austin: Burgers, hot dogs, beers, and cocktails in the former Good Knight space. Chef Brandon Stratton sources locally when he can, grinds his own meat, and doesn't take kindly to complaints about his having closed the old restaurant.
• Mercato Stellina, Seattle: A casual Italian grocery and deli by Trevor Greenwood of Cantinetta, the Italian restaurant that landed in Wallingford in 2009 and became a Seattle sensation. The Mercato's agenda? Fresh pastas, imported and local cured meats, and other imported foodstuffs. On the menu: panini, pasta, salads, charctuerie, and cheese.
• Short Order, Los Angeles: Grassfed burgers, deviled eggs, fries, onions rings, custard shakes, "adult shakes," and farm-to-table cocktails at an upscale burger stand with a Shake Shack design by Mozza chef Nancy Silverton at the Original Farmers Market on the corner of 3rd and Fairfax. It's an exciting premise overshadowed by the recent death of the project's partner, longtime Southern California chef Amy Pressman. Silverton says Short Order will still open.
• Umamai Burger, Los Angeles: Expect to hear a lot more about Adam Fleischman. After getting backing from SBE hospitality group and his brother's investment firm Nimes Capital, Fleishman is taking Umami nationwide. His flagship will open in the 3,000-square-foot former spa at the Grove with indoor and outdoor seating for 175, to be followed by 35 new Umami Burgers in the next three years starting in San Francisco, Anaheim, New York, Miami, Texas, and Vegas. Keep a lookout for a downtown deli (Umamicatessan) and U-Ko, a green fast-food joint. (Photo by Arthur Bovino)
• Central Kitchen/Salumeria, San Francisco: With Flour + Water, David White, David Steele, and Thomas McNaughton have established themselves as one of the best pizzerias in San Francisco, if not the country. Their follow-up will open two blocks away, adjoining courtyard and mezzanine butchery helmed by Michael Gaines, most recently of Manresa. And no, reports are that there won't be pizza.
This season marks the debuts of many chefs to the New York City restaurant market. Adam Aamann, an up and-coming-chef hailing from Copenhagen, will launch a self-titled restaurant specializing in Dutch open-faced sandwiches, while Al Mayass a renowned Armenian restaurant in Beiruit will open in the Big Apple as well.
• Aamanns/Copenhagen, New York City: The Noma effect ripples through Manhattan. Adam Aamann, who pioneered a successful restaurant and takeaway in Copenhagen, is bringing the open-faced sandwich concept to TriBeCa. There will be pastries, chocolates, coffee, and 100 core smørrebrød recipes, with 12 on the menu any given day. They're seeking a liquor license to serve aquavit.
• Jung Sik, New York City: The 33-year-old Korean, CIA-trained chef, Jung Sik Yim, who is said to be the first to apply the techniques of molecular gastronomy to Korean cuisine in Korea, returns to the U.S. to serve some of the same successful dishes here, in an iconic space — the space once occupied by the storied Chanterelle. (Photo courtesy of Facebook/Jung Sik)
• Romera, New York City: Reviews of Romera are not overwhelmingly good so far. And many decry its high pretension factor (flavored waters?). Regardless, the restaurant deserves attention. The chef, Dr. Miguel Sanchez, was a neurologist for most of his career before opening his now-closed, Michelin-starred restaurant in Spain. To dig in, you'll have to pony up, though. It's an 11-course, $245 tasting menu.
• Café Pushkin, New York City: Seventy-two-hundred square feet of Russian cuisine spread out over three floors a block away from the Russian Tea Room. Over-the-top? Ridiculous excess? Perhaps. Unnecessary and likely obnoxious? Probably. Someplace to ask your banker friends to spend their bonuses because you don't get one? Why not?
• Al Mayass, New York City: These days, the Flatiron is hardly lacking for good food or diversity of cuisine. But the New York branch of Al Mayass, an established Armenian restaurant in Beirut, which is opening in a long-vacant, $2 million space will certainly add to the neighborhood's restaurant menagerie.
Just like burgers, pizza is another iconic dish that will never go out of style. From a duo of brothers in Boston who are looking to the signature dishes of neighboring restaurants for pie inspiration at All Star Pizza, to legendary Brooklyn pizzeria Di Fara expanding to Las Vegas.
• Di Fara, Las Vegas: Dom DeMarco Jr., son of the legendary Brooklyn pizza maker will be opening the first Las Vegas location of the Di Fara brand in the late fall. It remains to be seen whether the quality of DeMarco's famous pies will be upheld in Vegas.
• Balena, Chicago: The team behind Chicago's Boka Restaurant Group has partnered up with the team behind The Bristol to open an upscale Italian restaurant later this fall, with a pizza oven that doubles as a rotisserie.
• Birra, Philadelphia: Formerly of Stephen Starr's Barclay Prime, Gordon Dinerman is stepping out on his own with a pizza joint. Most of the items on the menu at Birra will be prepared in the restaurant's brick oven.
• All-Star Pizza, Boston: Kosta and Johnny Diamantopoulos, the duo of brothers behind All-Star Sandwich Bar in Boston are opening a pizza place across the street that will serve a variety of pies ranging from traditional to funky (such as the mojito, which will include smoked peaches and prosciutto). For the special chef-inspired selections, the brothers will team up with local restaurants to create pies based on their signature dishes.
• Harry's Pizzeria, Miami: Michael Schwartz took over the former Pizza Volante space in the Design District, renamed it for his son, and rebooted it as an expansion of the thin-crust pies he serves at Michael's Genuine Food & Drink. When a renowned chef does a pizza joint you have to pay attention, but early photos don't seem promising. Then again, does it take much to start a new pizzeria and automatically be Miami's best?
• Baco Mercat, Los Angeles: Josef Centeno, chef of The Lazy Ox Canteen and former chef de cuisine at Manresa, will open a new restaurant in downtown Los Angeles later this month. Baco Mercat will serve a rotating menu of baco, which is Centeno's signature hybrid pizza/gyro/taco dish.
Big Guys
As was mentioned above, there are a handful of chefs and restaurateurs that open up a new place every season it seems. This trend also extends to the well-known industry powerhouses that are launching ventures this fall.
• North End Grill, New York City: The latest addition to Danny Meyer's burgeoning restaurant empire is yet another venture with reigning Top Chef Master, Floyd Cardoz. So what makes this restaurant different from all the others? Well for one, the vast majority of the produce will come from North End Grill's rooftop garden, and Cardoz plans to have seafood dishes comprise 60 percent of the menu. Oh, and there are plans for a scotch bar. Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming opening.
• Kutsher's, New York City: Restaurateur Jeffrey Chodorow has convinced Zach Kutsher and his family to take the spirit of their Catskills resort, Kutsher's Country Club, to the Big Apple. The restaurant, which opens this month, will feature modern takes on classic Jewish dishes, such as schmaltz-coated french fries.
• Crown, New York City: John DeLucie's newest restaurant opened in Manhattan's Upper East Side on September 9th. The chef-owner describes the menu as Continental, full of comforting, yet classic dishes.
• Pearl Dive Oyster Palace and Black Jack, Washington, D.C.: The latest venture from the Black Restaurant Group is a duo of adjacent restaurants, each with distinctly separate concepts. The main floor houses Pearl Dive Oyster Palace, a Southern-style seafood spot with an undeniable nautical decor. Upstairs is Black Jack, a swanky lounge serving a full array of house cocktails and snacks like nachos topped with pork belly and duck confit.
• The Pump Room, Chicago: This past February, the Public Chicago Hotel closed The Pump Room and announced that it would reopen in the fall with the help of Jean Georges Vongerichten. The Pump Room is known for being the ultimate celebrity hangout in Chicago, with everyone from Frank Sinatra to Mick Jagger on the list of illustrious guests. The revamped restaurant will open officially on October 11th.
• Bar Toma, Chicago: Tony Mantuano's hotly anticipated Italian wine bar, Bar Toma, is slated to open later this month in the space where Bistro 110 stood for the past 25 years in Chicago's Gold Coast neighborhood. The casual restaurant will have mozzarella, gelato, and pizza bars to go along with the vast selection of wine.
• The Dutch, Miami: Andrew Carmellini will open the second branch of his critically acclaimed restaurant, The Dutch,in Miami's W Hotel next month. The location will serve most of the elevated Italian dishes available at the original, but Carmellini also plans to add his takes on a few Miami specialties to the menu. Expect a grouper sandwich and a raw bar serving local seafood.
• Wolfgang Puck at Hotel Bel-Air, Los Angeles: The doors to Wolfgang Puck's latest addition to his empire will open to guests on October 14th, and will then welcome the public on November 1st. The restaurant will serve the cuisine that Puck has become known for — modern Californian with a European influence.
• Maison Giraud, Los Angeles: Acclaimed French chef and restaurateur Alain Giraud will open this bistro and bakery in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles later this season. All of the breads and pastries served at the restaurant will be baked on the premises.
• Wo Hing General Store, San Francisco: The widely anticipated opening of Wo Hing General Store, the new restaurant from Charles Phan that's located in the original Slanted Door space is slated to happen within the next month. The food concept for the eatery is elevated Chinese street food, while the décor is said to be made from recycled and reclaimed materials (such as wood from an abandoned bowling alley). (Photo courtesy of Keith Seaman)
• Haven, Oakland: Acclaimed San Francisco chef Daniel Patterson is opening a new restaurant in the Jack London Square area of Oakland. Patterson has recruited up-and-coming chef Kim Alter, formerly of Ubuntu and Plate Shop, to helm the kitchen, which will specialize in nose-to-tail dishes.
This trend includes new sibling outposts of restaurants that already exist elsewhere, such as Hakkasan, the famed London Chinese eatery, that is opening a location in New York City. This category also extends to chefs and restaurateurs that are expanding their empires in general, such as the Torrisi boys opening Parm.
• Empellon Cocina, New York City: Anyone who knows anything about Mexican food and has visited Empellon once probably wouldn't return to Alex Stupak's "Mexican" joint in the West Village if they had to pay for it, but that doesn't seem to be stopping the "cognoscenti" filling his dining room. And the former WD-50 dessert alum is doing well enough to open a new spot where he envisions having to explain less about what he's doing, and do more expensive tasting menus and wine pairings. And you wonder how Dos Caminos and Rosa Mexicana are so successful.
• Parm, New York City: The Torrisi boys are working on opening their sandwich space next door to serve their amazing turkey, eggplant parm, and meatball sandwiches. For savvy New York sandwich seekers, that hopefully means less than the typical 20-minute wait and attitude you usually face when looking to grab one of the city's best things between bread.
• La Mar Cebicheria Peruana, New York City: When a chef who has 30 restaurants around the world hasn't yet opened a spot in New York you have to wonder why. Are New Yorkers not ready for Peruvian cuisine, or was Gaston Acurio just scared? That answer to that question lies in a space that's hardly bashful. Formerly Tabla, La Mar jumps into the suddenly food-relevant Flatiron District.
• Hakkasan, New York City: The famous overrated and overpriced outpost for high-end London Chinese cuisine comes to Hell's Kitchen. Hell's Kitchen? Yes. And it's sure to draw the same self-absorbed, self-satisfied crowds as it does in Miami.
• Hillside, New York City: Vinegar Hill House is one of Brooklyn's best restaurants. People clamor to get in. Now there will be a place for them to have a drink while they're waiting. Seems like a no-brainer.
• Red Gravy, New York City: A Michelin-starred restaurateur opens an Italian restaurant in Brooklyn Heights and names it after Italian-Americans' colloquialism for tomato sauce. An interesting lead in the city's high-end, Italian cuisine resurgence.
• Moksa, Boston: The peripatetic Patricia Yeo is supposed to be opening her awaited izakaya in Boston's Central Square. The food will likely be good. But how long will she stay?
• Ela, Philadelphia: Rising star, chef Jason Chichonski opens a modern American restaurant serving medium-sized plates and signature bar snacks. The restaurant's name is in honor of his late mother, who was born and raised in Poland (the first name he floated was Guns and Butter).
• Tashan, Philadelphia: Tashan means style or attitude in Hindi and Punjabi slang, and Munish Narula, owner of Tiffin, the Indian delivery service turned dine-in joints, aims to bring both, with an Indian small plates concept, to 777 Broad Street with the help of chefs Sylva Senat (an alum of Buddakan, Aquavit, and Jean Georges) and Sanjay Sendhave (a schoolmate of Narula's).
• Founding Farmers, Washington, D.C.: The Potomac location of Founding Farmers may be slightly smaller than the original on Pennsylvania Avenue, but the menu is expected to be bigger. New dishes include roast chicken, pork, and even fish dishes baked in salt blocks. (Photo courtesy of Yelp/Founding Farmers)
• Boqueria, Washington, D.C.: The insecure D.C. culinary experts who decry New York criticism should have their claws sharpened for this New York export, and rightly so. It should be interesting to see how the Beltway's culinary elite respond to tapas that in New York plays second fiddle to nearby Casa Mono.
• Homestead Steak House, Las Vegas: The Meatpacking District's Homestead Steak House has been around since 1868, when that appellation actually meant something. Now, Vegas gets a taste at the Caesar's location, co-owned by Marc Sherry, grandson of Harry Sherry, who bought Homestead in 1951.
• Belle Clementine, Seattle: Corson Building alum, David Sanford does his own farm-to-table, community-dining thing in a 100-year old building in Ballard. The restaurant, which will serve family-style meals, is named for his grandmother.
• Manhattan Drugs, Seattle: The curiously named Manhattan Drugs will be Laura Olson's fourth new place in two years and third on Capitol Hill. She's opening this one with her fiancé Chris Pardo (the name is for a now-closed Normandy Park pharmacy), and they've come out swinging, telling Seattle Magazine, that the restaurant and bar will serve, "the best hamburger [ground fresh to order] in Seattle, plus steaks, and multiple macaroni and cheeses."
• Park Tavern, San Francisco: The team behind Marlowe (Anna Weinberg and Jennifer Puccio) offers a menu of self-proclaimed, "boldly-flavored seafood and meat dishes." The Marlowe burger makes the cut, otherwise, there are three categories of shareable plates: raw, fried, and house-smoked.
Top Chef
Bravo's resident food show has spawned a slew of star chefs, including quite a few who are opening restaurants this fall. This list also includes a new eatery from Jody Adams, an alum of Top Chef Masters.
• Catch, New York City: Cycle three winner, Hung Huynh opened Catch this past Saturday in conjunction with the EMM restaurant group. The menu will have a majority of seafood dishes with a light Asian influence, plus a selection of large-format items meant to feed an entire party.
• Talde, New York City: Top Chef alum Dale Talde is teaming up with John Bush and David Massoni of Thistle Hill to open an Asian-American restaurant in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn. The cozy eatery will open sometime this month.
• Sweet Cheeks Barbecue, Boston: Tiffani Faison, the runner-up in cycle one, will open a casual barbeque joint near Fenway Park in Boston this month. The food will be Faison's take on classic Southern favorites, including house-made Nutter-Butter cookies.
• Trade, Boston: Acclaimed Boston chef and Top Chef Masters alum, Jody Adams will open her second restaurant in the city's Waterfront District later this month. Trade will be a casual eatery, serving up mostly small plates with a few larger main dish options.
• Sbraga, Philadelphia: Cycle seven winner, Kevin Sbraga will open his debut restaurant in Philadelphia this month. Diners can expect a warm and homey ambiance with dishes prepared using ingredients from local farms and purveyors.
• Ink, Los Angeles: Winner of Top Chef season six, Michael Voltaggio, opened his new Los Angeles restaurant, Ink, on September 21st. The restaurant will serve Voltaggio's signature style of cuisine, which means highly technical and experimental dishes using seasonal ingredients. Earlier last month the chef opened ink.sack, a sandwich joint next door to Ink.
Stepping Out
This season there are quite a number of bright, young chefs branching out on their own. Mathieu Palombino, formerly of Motorino, will open his debut spot, The Bowery Diner, in New York City next month. In Austin, culinary power couple Todd Duplechan and Jessica Maher will open their much awaited restaurant.
• Corkbuzz, New York City: Master sommelier Laura Maniec will open her first restaurant and wine bar later this month. The spot also includes classrooms, where Maniec and her staff will offer recreational wine education courses.
• Family Recipe, New York City: Akiko Thurnauer, a former Nobu employee who was born and raised in Tokyo, opened her first restaurant in the Lower East Side neighborhood of New York on September 8th. Family Recipe serves Japanese cuisine executed with local ingredients.
• The Bowery Diner, New York City: Former Motorino chef Mathieu Palombino will open his first place in New York later this season. Belgium-born Palombino will serve classic American fare at The Bowery Diner, but with an elevated touch.
• Catalyst, Boston: William Kovel, the former chef at Aujourd'Hui in Boston's Four Seasons Hotel (now closed), opened his first restaurant last month in Cambridge. The daily menu is comprised of modern American fare. (Photo courtesy of Facebook/Catalyst)
• Mintwood Place, Washington, D.C.: Chef Cedric Maupillier, who left his post at Michel Richard's Central in late 2010, will helm the kitchen at Mintwood Place. The restaurant is slated to open in the next few weeks. The menu will serve mostly American dishes, with French touches.
• 2 Sparrows, Chicago: Childhood friends Gregory Ellis and Stephen Fladung cut their teeth while working in the back and front of the house (respectively) at Charlie Trotter's. The duo's first eatery will serve breakfast and lunch in Chicago's Lincoln Park. Expect dishes like foie gras mousse pop tarts. The spot will open next week.
• Tavernita, Chicago: Chef Ryan Poli left Chicago's Perennial to helm the kitchen at the newest restaurant from Mercadito Hospitality, Tavernita. The restaurant will serve Spanish-inspired small plates and has an extensive raw bar.
• Magasin Vietnamese Café, New Orleans: Kim Nguyen is a third generation restaurateur, born and raised in New Orleans. Following Hurricane Katrina, Nguyen moved to Houston, where she opened two Vietnamese restaurants. This fall she will open her first venture in her home town, a cafe specializing in family-style Vietnamese cuisine with a French influence.
• Lenoir, Austin: Former Savoy pastry chef Jessica Maher and her husband, a former chef at Tabla, moved to Austin five years ago with the dream to open a restaurant of their own. The couple will open the doors to Lenoir, a seasonally focused restaurant serving French food.
• AQ, San Francisco: Matt Semmelhack, formerly of La Folie and stints with Daniel Boulud and Joel Robuchon, will run the kitchen at AQ, the first restaurant from budding restaurateur Matt Semmelhack. The restaurant will serve a daily rotating menu of seasonal fare at a reasonable price point.
• State Bird Provisions, San Francisco: Married couple and former Rubicon chefs, Nicole Krasinski and Stuart Brioza, will open their first restaurant in San Francisco next month. Guests at State Bird Provisions will get to choose from a selection of small plates presented on carts, similar in style to dim sum.
These are the restaurants from chefs that have had to close their restaurants for one reason or another and are now making their foray back into the industry with a new opening.
• La Promenade des Anglais, New York City: La Promenade des Anglais is Alain Allegretti's attempt return to his prior glory, following the closure of two-star restaurant, Allegretti, in 2010. This casual bistro will serve dishes inspired by the French Riviera.
• Atera, New York City: Restaurateur Jodi Richard closed Compose in July after losing chef Nick Curtain. Later this month she will reopen the location as Atera, with the help of acclaimed Portland chef Matthew Lightner, who will helm the kitchen.
• Alison 18, New York City: Alison Price Becker closed her popular date-night restaurant in the Financial District of New York City following the events of 9/11. Next month, the restaurateur will open Alison 18 in Chelsea, which will carry on Becker's signature romantic ambiance.
• Vedge, Philadelphia: Married couple Rich Landau and Kate Jacoby closed their popular vegetarian restaurant, Horizons, in South Philadelphia earlier this year. But the duo quickly got back to work on their newest venture, a more casual vegetarian restaurant in Philadelphia's City Center. The place is scheduled to open within the next few weeks. (Photo courtesy of Facebook/Vedge)
• Post and Beam, Los Angeles: First it was Table 8, and then the Melrose Place restaurant turned into 8oz Burger Bar, then earlier this year the location closed permanently. Now Govind Armstrong is trying his hand with a new project in a new Los Angeles location. Post and Beam will serve modern Californian cuisine with a local influence.
The ultimate fried confection, doughnuts, especially in artisinal bakeries, are sprouting up everywhere these days. The openings of two such spots are hotly anticipated for those looking for a sweet way to end the year.
• Federal Donuts, Philadelphia: First there was chicken and waffles. Then there was Korean fried chicken and doughnuts. Cross-trainers for the Fat Olympics have chef Michael Solomonov and partner Stephen Cook to thank for the convergence of two of the past few years' hottest comfort food trends. It's a partnership that may finally be powerful enough to kill cupcakes.
• Fonuts, Los Angeles: It's always funny, considering the cliché about Californians health-consciousness, that Angelenos love doughnuts so much. Now there need be no hypocrisy — Nancy Truman and Waylynn Lucas bake, not fry the "fonuts" (get it, get it?) in their Third Street shop. Look for gluten-free and even vegan options. Doesn't this kind of defeat the point? (Photo courtesy of Yelp/CakesA)

Okay, poo it! Be gone with the budget! I just arrived at the cruise docking station and the taxi cost me €289.58! Oh well, the cruise is seven days, so I think I'll just relax; no more jumping around from place to place! The cruise cost €1324.65 and begins in Honfleur, France.

It takes more energy to resist something than to accept it.'

Players like Manny Ramirez give baseball a bad name
By S.C. Zuba
Sports Columnist
Looks like I got my wish.
Never again will I be forced to listen to the phrase "Manny being Manny."
That's right, folks, Manny Ramirez has retired from the game of baseball. Please, hold your applause.
Ramirez's decision to retire from the game of baseball before collecting his second hit as a member of the Tampa Bay Rays came as a bit of a surprise to the entire baseball world. Rather than serve a 100-game suspension for allegedly violating Major League Baseball's performance-enhancing drugs policy, Ramirez chose to call it quits on his career.
The future of Major League Baseball just got a little bit brighter, in my opinion.
Ramirez was a cancer. He did things the way he wanted to do them, and he didn't care what rules he broke. That's why his career is ending prematurely. Karma?
Remember when he served a 50-game suspension before the start of the 2009 season? This was the season after he held the sports world hostage during his contract negotiations with the Dodgers. To Ramirez, $45 million for two years of work wasn't enough, so he refused to sign a contract until deep into spring training.
Then, after he signed his mega deal, he failed a drug test and missed the first 50 games of the season with the team that just shelled out almost $50 million for the aging diva.
It's players like Ramirez who give baseball a bad name. It's obvious that baseball's popularity in America is on a steady decline—mostly because of baseball's involvement with performance-enhancing drugs.
Players are getting caught, and records are being tarnished. People who you thought were shoe-ins for the Hall of Fame are getting snubbed because, well, they cheated.
The game of baseball is falling apart, and you can blame players like Ramirez.
When I heard Ramirez was walking away from baseball, I couldn't have been happier. Finally, he can step aside and let players like Albert Pujols and Mark Teixeira—you know, guys who do things the right way—take over as the face of baseball.
Ramirez is a joke, and he's a pathetic excuse for a role model. He should've retired after that embarrassing 50-game suspension. Yes, the guy is a career .312 hitter with more than 500 home runs, but after receiving two suspensions for testing positive for illegal substances, what do those numbers mean, really?

CSU welcomes eight women, five men
Abdel Wahab is beginning his fifth season with Colorado State University Rams, coaching the sprints, hurdles, relays and the hurdles for the men and women multi events. Abdel Wahab is also the liaison between Student Athlete Academic Success and the Track and Field team.
Team Results with the Rams
In the last four seasons with the Rams, Abdel Wahab coached multiple Mountain West All-Conference and Conference finalists during the indoor and outdoor seasons, as well as multiple qualifiers to the preliminary round of the NCAA Championship and 5 times All American Honors.
The 2014 season was very special for Abdel Wahab with the Rams, as he led the men's team to break the 38 years old outdoor 4x400m relay school record, as well as new school records in the men's 60 hurdles, 110 hurdles and 400m hurdles.
Abdel Wahab's biggest achievement so far with the Rams is coaching student athlete Trevor Brown to 5 time All American Honors in the hurdles events. Brown set school and conference records in the 60m hurdles indoors (7.73 sec), and 110m hurdles outdoors (13.55 sec). Also in the 2014 Brown broke the 41 year old 400 hurdles school record lowering it from 50.50 sec to 49.64 sec, which is the second best performance in the history of the MW conference.
In 2014 Abdel Wahab coached Brown to the semifinal of the US national indoor championship in the 60m hurdles, 4th place at the US national outdoor championship in the 400 hurdles and a first place and a Gold medal for the United States at the 2014 under-23 NACAC meet in Canada in the 400m hurdles.
World Class Coaching Experience
In 2013 Abdel Wahab coached the Egyptian 400m national champion, Anas Bshr, to a new national record in the 400m (45.79 sec) and a second place finalist at the 2013 Mediterranean Games.
Abdel Wahab represented Egypt as a team coach in the 2010 African Championship, 2011 at the World Outdoor Championship, 2012 in the World Indoor Championship, and the 2012 London Olympic Games.
In November 2013 Abdel Wahab started working with Josanne Lucas from Trinidad and Tobago and coached her to a 7th place finalist in the women 100m hurdles at the 2014 Commonwealth Games. Lucas was third in the 400m hurdles at the 2009 World Championship, and holds PRs of 53.2sec in the 400m hurdles, and 12.96sec in the 100m hurdles. Currently Lucas is volunteer assistant for the Rams, helping Abdel Wahab coach the hurdlers.
Previous College Coaching Experience
Before working with the UNC Bears, Abdel Wahab was a volunteered for two years as the assistant coach for the sprints and hurdles team at Colorado School of Mines, helping the top Ore Diggers male sprinter, Michael Curl, set a school record in the indoor 60m dash.
A native of Egypt, Abdel Wahab graduated from Helwan University in Cairo in 2002 with a degree in sports and exercise science. Level I USATF Coach, ISSA Fitness Trainer, and ISSA Fitness Therapist.
Abdel Wahab authored an article titled "A Methodical Approach for Developing High Hurdlers," discussing high hurdle training in depth, which was published in the November 2013 issue of the USATFCCCA Magazine, "Techniques." In the spring of 2014 Abdel Wahab developed a high hurdle coaching instructional DVD with Championship Productions titled "Curriculum Guide for the Hurdles."

Apparently [etisalat.ae] etisalat claims the spyware is for troubleshooting during the 2g to 3g upgrade.
The Register article stated:
No one from Etisalat, RIM, or SS8 is saying anything about the issue, despite the fact that the application appears remarkably difficult to remove. Enterprising hackers, though, have discovered it can be done, with one providing a useful utility (seventh message down) to automate the process.

Photos: Four dead inside Aurora, Colo., home, including gunman shot by police
Vern Slocum Posted by Vern on 2013-01-05 15:55:36 tags:
Four people were killed this morning including a gunman who held police at bay for several hours in an Aurora townhome. Aurora SWAT team members shot the gunman after he went to a second-floor window and fired a gun at police. The gunman fatally shot two men and a woman, police say. One woman jumped from an upstairs back window, ran from the home and called police just before 3 a.m., said Cassidee Carlson, Aurora police spokeswoman. The woman told police officers that she saw three "lifeless" bodies in the home. The woman was not injured by the jump or by gunshots. The identities of the victims and the gunmen have not been released.

We enjoyed our first experience so much we went back three days later! After a hard day lazing around in the sun it is nice to dress up/frock up and go somewhere that is elegant and classy and the food and service exceeding your expectation!
The head chef should be incredibly proud of the menu. This is the only restaurant in Broome that I feel provides five star dining. I will be returning again very soon!
The Selene Brasserie is the best restaurant in Broome hands down. The staff are always friendly and accommodating - Besky and Ronaldo you do an amazing job! The food is always fantastic. I recommend the pearl meat! We visit every time we are back in Broome and never leave disappointed...
Very modern food in an elegant but relaxed setting Was pleased to see no color changing lights over the pool as in another Broome restaurants Excellent food and well presented but very expensive really for a fish dish available locally - thread fin salmon and some salad - however it was a pleasant experience worth trying again.
Highly priced - reasonable service - tiny meals on big plates
wouldn't eat there by choice but would go if invited as part of a group
Excellent service. Delicious food. Beautiful setting.
Nicest food we had in Cable Beach.
Only ate here for dinner once
It was the first night this restaurant moved from streetside to poolside and It seemed to work; ambience was ok & quite busy.
My scallop entree was good; Slipper lobster tail (Morton Bay Bug) gnocchi excellent & poached pear dessert top class.
Service slipped into 'Broome Time' occasionally but that was ok.
Waitress Jean from Taiwan added a delightful jest
My husband and I visited selene last Friday night . We travelled from Sydney as part of a tour and stayed at cable beach resort.
I had booked Selene well in advance and arrived early 6pm. As the restaurant was empty we decided to have a cocktail which was not the best we have had and the went to eat...
Dear roxyandwick,
I am delighted to read that you enjoyed your recent dinner in Selene's Brasserie. Thank you for your kind comments and recommendations. I look forward to being able to welcome you back to Selene's for another fantastic dinner and Pinctada Cable Beach for a fantastic stay on your return to Broome.
Kind Regards,
Matthew Clowes
An unexpected visit no problems getting a table. Not too busy.
We all enjoyed our meals and the good service given especially from Beaky he is a winner. A good laugh and very competent waiter.
We did not have dessert on this occasion but the choice looks fab, I'm coming in before we leave Broome!
Dear ObreeandCo,
Thank you for your recent post. It was a pleasure to look after you and I will pass on your compliments to Besky. He is always a guest favourite. I look forward to seeing you again before you leave Broome.
Kind Regards,
Matthew Clowes
Enjoyed the tasting plates. All in all a good restaurant, a little lacking in any ambience though. Was there on a Friday night and place seemed dull. There were only 3 tables occupied inside.
Dear 54Sinkers,
Thank you for taking the time to post feedback from your recent visit to Selene's Brasserie. I hope we can welcome you back again soon.
Kind Regards,
Matthew Clowes

At a craft show I went to this weekend, somve vendors would say hello and ask how I was doing; others would _immediately_ launch into a full description of what items they were selling or what cause they were supporting. This second type of vendor is usually one I will walk away from.

The success of telework hinges on federal managers, who should not only support their remote workers but keep an open mind about finding creative approaches to challenges that arise, said the Obama administration's top workforce official.
Office of Personnel Management Director John Berry delivered the March 13 keynote at the Federal Managers Association's 74th National Convention & Management Training Seminar in Arlington, Va. His speech emphasized the importance of federal managers and how their role is not only to spearhead the workforce but to steer it in the right direction as times evolve.
"To reap the benefits of telework, we need [federal managers], we need to practice, we need to know out systems and personnel can handle work from remote locations, before disaster hits, whether it be natural or otherwise," he said.
Thanks to telework, OPM, along with the General Services Administration and other agencies, has reduced its real estate footprint. By allowing more employees to work remotely, the agency was able to close down a call center in Pittsburgh, Pa., saving $200,000 a year, Berry said.
"All that teleworking, the potential savings, as well as the increased resilience of our operations counts on you," he said, referring to the roomful of government managers. "I know it can feel like a risk; many managers can get nervous about employees they just can't swing by and see and peer over their shoulder." Last year's Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey revealed that one-fourth of all government workers reported that although their role permits them to telework, their supervisors don't. Those who believed management is the only obstacle to telework scored lower on all the other survey questions than those who were allowed to telework, Berry said.
"It comes down to being the simple matter of trust," Berry said. "People who don't feel entrusted aren't going to be happy. People whose duties present legitimate barrier to telework tend to be understanding."
Managers not only need to discuss with employees telework eligibility but they need to be willing to explain why certain duties need to be done in the office. They also should be willing to hear proposals and creative solutions to problems that may arise, Berry said.
"Technology and society are moving, and we can't afford to just sit still and allow it to happen," he said. "We need to face that future with open minds and good problem-solving skills."Berry also gave a nod to his GSA colleague Administrator Martha Johnson for what he called "very cutting-edge stuff" in telework, citing hoteling and "social days" when teams get together and interact face to face "and create that support structure that recognizes all of the needs of a human being."
"The technology, the security issues have all been resolved," Berry said. "You still have to think it through and prepare for it but . . . you can make this work. Now the last piece of the puzzle is our managerial support to help define [telework] and maintain productivity, maintain services and increase out resilience."

In an effort to be good stewards of taxpayers' money, I believe a work-at-home strategy is the best solution to reduce one of the biggest expenses the government has (rent). This not only reduces rent, but also decreases staff years managing government-owned and government-rented properties. The fact is, many agencies already have employees who are managed off-site, so it is not a totally new idea. My recommendations include mandatory training for all managers that give them tools and ideas on how to manage off-site employees or those who work-at-home. Additionally, facility functions of all agencies should be the first to implement the work-at-home stratgy. This sets a good example both in rent dollars and energy savings and shows the other agency managers they are willing to feel the painful change first. However, it appears that facility function managers have the same anxieties our customer managers have--how to ensure employees are working even when you can't "see" them. Overall, if the change is good for field functions, it's good for many office functions too, even if that unfortunately means a reduction in facility-related staff years.
Managers in my agency seem to be of the mindset that if they can't see you, then you must not be working. In my role as well as most of my coworkers, there is no reason that we should not be allowed to telework. Enough complaining to management is finally getting us one day of telework per pay period starting in a couple months. Oh and these managers telework quite frequently themselves.
Good article – we could not agree more that the success of telework hinges on federal managers. The better trained they are to deal with unique issues around managing teleworkers, the more comfortable they'll be in enabling their workforce to telework more consistently. And the benefits are clear: in addition to reducing real estate footprints, we've seen that telework also improves employee morale, and can help increase an agency's retention rates. Berry's emphasis on the importance of federal managers is key. As he says, we can't afford to sit still as technology and society are moving forward. Leadership development training for federal managers is a crucial element in the advancement of telework that should be implemented in every organization.

LONDON (AP) -- Amy Winehouse died as the unintended consequence of drinking too much alcohol, a British coroner ruled Wednesday.
Coroner Suzanne Greenaway gave a verdict of "death by misadventure," saying the singer died of accidental alcohol poisoning. "The unintended consequence of such potentially fatal levels [of alcohol] was her sudden and unexpected death," Greenaway said.
RELATED: Celebs React to Winehouse's Death
The singer, who had fought drug and alcohol problems for years, was found dead in bed at her London home on July 23 at age 27. An initial autopsy proved inconclusive, although it found no traces of illegal drugs in her system. Pathologist Suhail Baithun told the inquest into the singer's death that Winehouse had consumed a "very large quantity of alcohol" — the level in her blood put her more than five times over the legal drunk-driving limit.
Police Detective Inspector Les Newman, who was called after a security guard found Winehouse, said empty vodka bottles were scattered around her bedroom.
Winehouse's doctor, Dr. Christina Romete, said the singer had resumed drinking in the days before her death after a period of abstinence.
PHOTOS: Remembering Amy Winehouse
Romete, who saw Winehouse the night before she died, said the singer was "tipsy but calm." She added Winehouse had not spoken of suicide and talked about her upcoming birthday.
Romete said Winehouse had been prescribed drugs including the sedative Librium to help her cope with the symptoms of alcohol withdrawal, but the coroner said these had played no role in her death.
RELATED: Celebs Gone Too Soon
Winehouse family spokesman Chris Goodman said it was a relief to the family "to finally find out what happened to Amy."
"The court heard that Amy was battling hard to conquer her problems with alcohol, and it is a source of great pain to us that she could not win in time," he said.

Converting Purchased Videos to 1080p HD
Ask iLounge offers readers the opportunity to get answers to their iPod-, iPhone-, iPad-, iTunes-, or Apple TV-related questions from a member of the iLounge editorial team. We'll answer several questions here each week, and of course, you can always get help with more immediate concerns from the iLounge Discussion Forums. Submit your questions for consideration using our Ask iLounge Submit Form. We reserve the right to edit questions for grammar, spelling, and length.
Q: I have purchased a lot of videos from iTunes over the years, some standard definition and some in the original iTunes 720p HD format. I know that iTunes has never offered a way to convert my standard definition shows over to HD without repurchasing them completely, which I always thought was a bit of a gyp. I read somewhere (I think it was on your site) that I could convert my 720p HD movies and TV shows to 1080p HD versions, but I can't seem to find any option for this on the iTunes Store. Is this only available in the U.S. (I'm in Canada), or am I missing something?
- Eric
A: The good news is that you can download 1080p versions of HD content you've already purchased, provided that it's available on the iTunes Store in 1080p and is available for re-downloading from iTunes in the Cloud in your country. Keep in mind that not all content has been updated to the higher-quality 1080p format; you will need to check the individual content pages on the iTunes Store to confirm what format an item is available in.
Note that there isn't really a "conversion" process involved here; in reality the iTunes Store considers HD content to be a single catalog item, regardless of whether it's in 720p or 1080p resolution. So basically, all you need to do is use iTunes in the Cloud to re-download your previous HD purchases and you will get the best version available, subject to your preferences in iTunes, as specified on the Store screen.
With the When downloading High Definition videos option set to prefer 1080p content, any HD video you purchase or re-download will be delivered in 1080p whenever possible, regardless of the format that it was in when you purchased it. This applies not only to past purchases, but can also be used for any current and future 720p purchases should 1080p versions later become available.
To actually re-download the items, you will need to go to the iTunes Store home page and choose "Purchased" from the Quick Links section in the top right corner. This will take you to the section where you can access all of your previously purchased items available for re-download from iTunes in the Cloud. Note that the available categories of content vary between countries—TV Shows will be available in most countries where TV Shows are sold on the iTunes Store, however Movies are available for re-download in the U.S. only.
Although iTunes does not normally allow you to re-download items that are already in your iTunes library, it does recognize the difference between 720p and 1080p content; as long as your iTunes Preferences are set to 1080p you should see active download links for any available 1080p content that is not already in your library in that format.
If you see greyed out buttons with the word "Downloaded" instead of the iCloud icon, this means that that the content in question is already in your library in the format you're trying to re-download it in—likely because it's only available in 720p from the iTunes Store, your iTunes Preferences are set to prefer 720p, or you've already downloaded the 1080p version.
Unfortunately, iTunes doesn't provide any information on the re-download pages as to the specific format of HD content; you'll need to go back to the main iTunes Store page for the particular item to determine this.
Note that 720p and 1080p content can co-exist in the same iTunes library; re-downloading your TV shows as 1080p does not remove the original 720p versions. You may still want to keep these around if you plan on transferring this content to devices that only support 720p such as older iPad models or the iPhone 4/4S, although you can remove the 720p version and use the standard definition version with these devices instead if you prefer.
The preferred format for playback in iTunes is set on the Playback screen in your iTunes Preferences. 1080p capable iOS devices such as the third-generation iPad will always sync the 1080p version of HD videos where available unless you've specifically set them to prefer standard definition videos. For more information, see our article Instant Expert: Secrets & Features of iTunes 10.6.
