Stayed at the B and B that is part of this restaurant. Great food and the entire staff is so friendly and make you feel like part of the family. Great selection of food and you will leave very satisfied.
We love going to go for breakfast . The burrito is legendary a must try .We eat a Fiori's restaurant often and the food & and service is always great .
Great food! Loved the scallops, haddock, and salmon. The cook is really into giving you a great meal at a reasonable price. The Mexican alternatives are a big hit with the local folks. If you have breakfast and decide to have the burrito make sure you are wearing your feasting boots. Yeah we are from NY.
Owned by a retired Denver detective they make good TexMex Mexican food. Given his name it's no surprise the Italian food is also very good. Along with the Inn probably the best place for Americans

I cannot agree with the rave reviews posted here. We ate at Fiori's three times — the second and third time the simple result of either nothing else being open or our being unwilling to go to the places that were open.
On the first visit, my wife had the fish & chips and I had the Gran Burrito. The...
I had a Mexican Platter and it was definitely authentic Mexican. It was very good but so much food. Breakfast was fantastic and the owners and their grand daughter were wonderful people. we will return

About Cycling Socks
Your feet work really hard on a bike and are a major point of contact, so it's worth pampering them a bit. Cycling socks are designed to relieve the pressure points generated by pedalling and keep your skin dry by wicking moisture away. Blood flow is also important through your feet, so a cool, vented foot will allow this better than a hot clammy foot.
About the DeFeet brand
In 1992 Shane Cooper stood before a knitting machine given to him by his father and began experimenting. His invention fuelled the start of DeFeet. Cooper discovered a way to knit athletic socks that was completely new to the market, by taking traditional knitting methods and reversing them. His product, the Air•E•Ator® sparked a revolution in athletic socks that continues today. DeFeet is a company that often turns traditional methodology on its head en route to finding new solutions for athletes. This spirit propels the company into new product categories such as those in their award winning Un•D•System™ base layering apparel. 2005 marked more special advancements with the introduction of the Levi•T•Ator™ and Acti•V•Ator™ line of socks. Like the entire DeFeet line, these new introductions were inspired by athletics and a quest for greater performance. Not everyone is a racer, but everyone can benefit from lessons learned on the world's most difficult courses. DeFeet's strength comes from racing. DeFeet's state-of-the-art factory is located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. Here their manufacturing strength is melded with the company's spirit and design prowess. DeFeet knows that their customers are not ordinary. You don't settle for less. You know that once you have experienced better, there is no going back. You don't want to wear items that have been churned out for the masses. You want true craftsmanship. Craftsmanship is on display every day at DeFeet. Collectively, the DeFeet staff has literally centuries of knitting experience. Spirit, strength and craftsmanship. These elements exist at DeFeet to create the best performing products of their kind. It's why DeFeet is "Made for Driven Soles."

This statistic shows the American customer satisfaction index scores for limited-service restaurant chains in the United States from 2006 to 2014. In 2014, the ACSI score for all limited-service restaurants in the U.S. was 80.
ACSI for limited-service restaurants - additional information
In 2014, the limited-service restaurants in the United States with the highest American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) score were pizza chains Papa John's and Pizza Hut. With a score of 82 out of 100, the chains were two points higher than the average score for all limited-service restaurants. McDonald's was the lowest at 71 and also received the lowest score seen on the timeframe in 2006 with a meager 63. In a July 2014 survey, the well-known fast-food company received the lowest taste rating out of a group of 21 popular burger chains in the U.S.
Also among the lowest scorers on the ACSI, KFC and Taco Bell were rated last in their respective categories for the tastiness of their food. Top scorers Papa John's and Pizza Hut, on the other hand, were among America's favorite pizza chains with 44 and 35 percent of U.S. consumers, respectively, voting them as their favorite. Papa John's has received consistently high ACSI scores with no score below 75 as far back as the year 2000. With nearly four and half thousand restaurants worldwide, the company generated approximately 1.44 billion U.S. dollars in revenue in 2013.
Pizza in general is a favorite with U.S. consumers – Italian was their second favorite type of food to eat at restaurants after American in 2013. Pizza was also by far the most popular type of food for takeout or delivery. In 2013, consumers spent 32.5 billion U.S. dollars in the quick-service restaurant pizza category in the U.S.

When Richard Bloom first breathed in the Dodgers, they had Brooklyn across their chest and guys called Duke and Pee Wee on the field.
Some kid named Jackie Robinson played second base and the tickets read Ebbets. Bloom was just a boy back then, but he loved the Bums with a passion.
That passion never died. For 56 years, through World Series and last-place finishes, home runs and heartbreak, he's been there rooting them on.
Part of just a handful of families who've held season tickets for the team since it relocated to Los Angeles, Bloom, now 62, has been a rock-solid supporter of the boys in blue.
``After all those years, the Dodgers are like East 14th Street in Brooklyn,'' he said. ``They'll always be a part of home for me.''
Bloom doesn't just know about every classic Dodgers moment -- from their triumph in the '55 Series over the Yanks to Fernandomania to their current run for the pennant -- he was there to see them all.
Since he was old enough to remember, he lived and died with the team's every move. Each hit he cheered, each loss he mourned.
It all started back at 55 Sullivan Place in Brooklyn -- the mighty Ebbets Field -- where a kid like Richie Bloom could get a frank with mustard, kraut and a pickle on the side for under a buck.
His dad, Theodore, worked in the family business, women's garment manufacturing, and rooted for the team like a maniac.
Ted would take his son to the games before he was even 5 years old and told him to root for Robinson, No. 42, the slick-fielding rookie out of the Negro Leagues.
``My father got in a lot of fights about that,'' Bloom remembered. ``He didn't care what he looked like. He said, This guy's a hell of a ballplayer. If he's gonna get us into the Series and beat the Yanks, I'm all for him.''
In 1950, the elder Bloom decided to get season tickets, seats the family's held through two cities, three ballparks and 56 years.
They loved the team so dearly, they didn't even give 'em up after Ted moved west later that year. He relocated to Inglewood, then to Van Nuys.
To a young Dodgers fan, the distance between Brooklyn and Van Nuys might as well have been the same as between Van Nuys and the moon.
No one out here rooted for the Bums like they do today, so Ted Bloom had a solution: Each summer he sent Richie back to Brooklyn to stay with family and use the tickets. He took three friends to the games, stopping off for egg creams on the way to the ballpark.
If the team made it to the Series, Ted wrote a note saying his son had the flu, kept him out of school and flew him home. The kid loved it. He saw the team win it all in 1955, then lose the next year to the Yankees, including Don Larsen's legendary perfect game for the Bronx Bombers.
Back then, ballplayers weren't the Mercedes-driving superstars they are today. They were working men who lived in the neighborhood where they played.
``One day, we were playing stickball out in the street and Roy Campanella and Carl Erskine came and asked if they could play with us,'' Bloom said. ``Campy had to bat left-handed since he was right-handed and Erskine had to throw lefty and underhanded, just to make it fair.''
Bloom idolized Campanella, loved the way the big catcher swung the bat, the way he gave everything to the game. When a car crash ended his career in January 1958, Bloom still loved the team, but it was never quite the same.
The team that had won the pennant in 1956 had slipped to third place the following season. Even worse, owner Walter O'Malley then did the unthinkable -- packed the team up and moved to Los Angeles.
``I was sad,'' Bloom said. ``Don't get me wrong, opening day at the Coliseum was terrific. But I said, `Wait a minute!' I couldn't picture a world without the Brooklyn Dodgers. That was my whole life.''
But he learned to adjust. He watched the team beat the hated Giants, now West Coast rivals from their new home in San Francisco, 6-5 in the April 18, 1958, home opener.
The next year he was in the crowd of 93,000 that choked the Coliseum for Roy Campanella Night, an emotional affair that he can still describe like it was yesterday. He still gets a little choked up as he remembers Pee Wee Reese wheeling his injured teammate out to the field, the stadium lit up by thousands of flashlights.
As a side business, Ted Bloom ran a parking shuttle at the Coliseum and got friendly with the ballplayers. He worked those connections into a relationship with cowboy singer Gene Autry, whose Los Angeles Angels expansion team began play in 1961.
``The day they got the franchise, my father was with them,'' Bloom said. ``He pulled out his checkbook, signed his name and said, `I want the four best seats in the house, plus season parking.' He didn't even ask how much it cost.''
After their initial season at Wrigley Field at 42nd Place and Avalon Boulevard in Los Angeles, the Angels shared Chavez Ravine with the Dodgers, so the Blooms suddenly had tickets for every home game at the stadium. Ted Bloom used the tickets he could and gave the rest to friends and business associates. He managed to work the same connections that got him in good with the teams to land season tickets to another new face in town, the Los Angeles Lakers.
At one time, the Blooms had passes for both baseball teams, the Lakers, the Rams, USC and UCLA. Ted Bloom had a charisma that could get him anywhere, and his son could start a conversation on any subject. By that time, he had his own wholesale paper business, which Richard followed him into as a salesman.
They were inseparable at games until the old man died 30 years later. Bloom wrote a heartbreaking eulogy mourning the loss of the man who introduced him to the Bums.
These days, he limits himself to the Dodgers, Angels and basketball. He's never missed an opening day for his first team in 56 years. Whenever he gets a chance, he's there on the first-base line, field level.
The skinny guy with the Brooklyn hat who talks and cheers throughout is a well-known fixture of Section 28.
On a recent night against the Reds, Bloom stretched back in his seat and watched Rafael Furcal pop a hit to shallow center field, and the longtime fan, completely in his element, shifted seamlessly from recounting some Dodgers history to cheering.
``C'mon, drop!'' he hollered. ``All right, this is a big one!''
Soon, the Dodgers were rallying, and Nomar Garciaparra stepped to the plate. Bloom clapped and watched the batter settle in. A towering drive to left got the crowd all worked up, but Bloom, with a half-century of experience, didn't get excited.
``The wind's not right tonight,'' he observed. ``It'll never get out of here.''
And, indeed, he was right. The Dodgers faithful will likely hope the same proves true for his observation that the team's got the juice to make it to the playoffs this year.
Earlier, he wasn't so sure, but once they landed Greg Maddux to bring some maturity to the pitching staff, Bloom decided they're a lock for the postseason.
Steve Whitelaw, a buddy of Bloom's for 20 years, has often tagged along with his friend to fill those seats. They arrive early, grab a bite at the Stadium Club and head down near the first-base line.
``With the Dodgers, I don't care if they're playing well or not, as long as they've got character,'' Whitelaw said. And that character stems from the memories Bloom can quote for hours on end.
``All of Richie's stories, the ones about Duke Snider, Maury Wills, that's the stuff that makes you like 'em,'' Whitelaw continued. ``I met Duke Snider one time, and he told me all those same stories Richie does, only he was there on the field.''
After all these years watching the Dodgers legends at play, mingling with them at autograph shows and team functions, Bloom is now trying to pass his love for the game on to another family member.
His nephew Talin, 8, frequently accompanies the longtime fan, and the boy has begun to pick up Bloom's passion. By his uncle's side, he cheers Jeff Kent and roots for the home team.
There's one tradition, however, that Bloom will not pass on -- Tommy Lasorda's famed description of a true Dodgers fan. He thinks it's simpler than all that.
``I always hated the phrase `Bleed Dodger Blue,''' he said. ``Back in Brooklyn, you didn't bleed Dodger blue. They were just a part of you.''

|Good post. Some reasonable points there.
I don't think it's really for us to decide what does and doesn't constitute good taste. I for one am happy that people that enjoy playing games purchased games and played them. I don't even think it's an especially bad game.
I still find COD games quite enjoyable, in much the same way I'd enjoy a rollercoaster - you know before you start how it's all going to go, and you've been on rollercoasters before so it's not like there'll be some massive surprises. But if you enjoy rollercoasters, it's always nice to try out another

There's far better games than COD.

|Public buy most advertised game like album/dvd etc shocker.
I don't see what's so shit about COD the game, tbh. Maybe Activision is shit or their practices are, but COD itself is a good game.
I just don't understand how those who buy every iteration aren't absolutely bored of it by now.

COD is a really good series and it's gameplay is fun and easy to pick up (single player or multiplayer). I haven't bought the last 2 but still play the older ones every few months. Threw on MW2 and BLOPs last week after a long break and had a blast.
As much as people like to hate on the series the reason Activision have been able to milk it until it bleeds the way they have is that they are bloody good games.

I'm just proving that people who enjoy CoD have as much right to their opinion as you do. You look down on their opinion as if you're somehow better than them, whereas it's just as easy to point at your taste and say "that's shit, how could you possibly like it?"

COLUMBIA, Mo. Injuries are the leading cause of death among children after the first year of life, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In a new study, a University of Missouri professor found that children living in households with unrelated adults are six times more likely to die of maltreatment-related unintentional injuries, compared to children living with two biological parents. The risk of maltreatment death is double for children living with foster or step-parents, or other related adults. However, the risk is not higher for children living in households with a single biological parent and no other adults.
Patricia Schnitzer, assistant professor in the MU Sinclair School of Nursing, examined eight years of data from the Missouri Child Fatality Review Program, which was established to accurately identify the circumstances and causes of all child deaths. Schnitzer identified 380 children under the age of five who died of an unintentional injury that occurred when a parent or other adult caregiver was either not present, was present but not capable of protecting the child, placed the child in an unsafe sleep environment, or failed to use legally mandated safety devices.
"In most cases, we found that the parent or other adult responsible for supervising the child simply was not present when the injury occurred," Schnitzer said. "Young children need nearly constant supervision, and of course, that's not always possible, but it should be the parent's highest priority. Many infants died because parents placed them in an unsafe sleep environment. Parents may not be aware of what's safe and what isn't, especially with so much new information being released about safe sleeping environments for infants. In other cases, parents failed to use mandated safety devices such as car seats, or the adult was present when the injury occurred but could not protect the child because they were under the inf

Gear Review
Unacceptable performance in the simplest situations
I must say, I had high hopes for these boots based upon the reviews here. And in all fairness, these boots will work in most situations. They are fairly comfortable and if this review was based on comfort alone, I would give them high scores. However, after wearing the shoes for about 12 straight hours, wetness begins to appear on the left and right side of each boot where the shoe flexes where your foot meets your toes. This is due to the humidity inside the boot. Now I cannot say that my foot is more or less humid than yours, but I can say that this has NEVER happened to me with any shoe before. Beyond that, the moisture spots discolor the boot permanently, and now both shoes have sweat circles on both sides of them. While this might be fine for a strictly hiking boot, I use these shoes for work as well. As for waterproofness, if the exhaust from my feet can cause these shoes to become wet on the outside, I don't see how they could possibly keep any amount of water out. I feel like I wasted $300 and won't be buying another Lowa boot.
Roger Ault
Did you contact Lowa to see if this is a defective boot? I can't imagine this happening unless it is defective.
at least you know theyre breathable
Moisture from the inside coming out doesn't say anything about moisture coming in. Gore Tex is designed to let air and moisture out, but not in. Maybe you should wear it for a bit more, if you haven't even had them on in the wet yet.
But contacting Lowa sounds like a good plan.
Irish Fiend
At least you know the gore works. If only gore worked good enough to keep me from sweating inside. What did you think would happen if the sweat went through the gore tex? Outside water is not getting through.

If it's a great Cuban sandwich you seek, head for the Tropical Café on Andrews Avenue just south of Sunrise Boulevard. God help you if you have to park in the minuscule lot, but that's the price you pay for perfection. Pull up a stool and you're as likely to be seated next to a downtown smoothie in an expensive suit as a dude with his name sewn on his shirt pocket and grease under his nails.
Go soon, though -- a nasty tenant-landlord spat is threatening to put this beloved eatery, at least its Andrews Avenue location, out of business.
In late May Luis Valde's, artist and owner of the colorful building from which Tropical operates, sued to evict the restaurant. He cited overdue rent, a dirty parking lot, and a lack of adequate insurance. Humberto Fajardo, Tropical's owner, says Valde's is running him out.
The grudge between the two men has been simmering since the restaurant opened three years ago. Recently the feud turned ugly.
Fajardo says that this past April 2 Valde's resorted to "blackmail" by giving him 72 hours to obtain $1 million in insurance coverage. Fajardo believes his landlord pulled the figure out of thin air to intimidate him into leaving. Valde's cited a condition in the handwritten lease, which was signed by both parties.
Not a man to stand idly by, Fajardo signed a contract for a new space in the nearby Sears Town Center -- a strip mall that's a poor substitute for his street-side stand -- the same day Valde's invoked the insurance clause. The new restaurant opened in mid-May under the same name, Tropical Café. "I was always ready," Fajardo says, "because I knew deep down that one day I was going to have problems with this guy."
In the months since, patrons have been treated to shouting matches between Valde's and Tropical employees Sol Maria Fajardo and Enrique Fajardo, Humberto's wife and brother. In May Valde's closed off the parking lot for three hours during the lunch rush while diners clamored to get in and out. A shoving match between Valde's and Enrique Fajardo resulted in a June restraining order mandating they stay at least ten feet apart from each other for six months. Valde's refused to speak to Undercurrents on the record, and his attorney, Skip DiRienzo, was unavailable for comment.
Oh well. You wouldn't have been able to pull up a stool for long at the old Tropical Café anyway. A "surprise" city inspection last week (two guesses who made the call) found lots of code violations including one that really hurt: Fajardo's sandwich heaven never had anything more than a "to-go" license. The stools were illegal all along.
Undercurrents loves a good, frivolous lawsuit. And when such a lawsuit involves a whirling airplane propeller, a misstep, and a flying severed arm, well that's just gravy.
In April Marvin Evans, age 25, jumped a fence at North Perry Airport in Pembroke Pines so he could take a ride in his friend's Cessna 172. Unfortunately for Evans, the Cessna was running at the time. According to a police report, the pilot, Benjamin Stubbs, directed Evans and another man to walk around the right side of the plane and board in the rear. But Evans got too close to the prop. "The right side of Evans' body made contact with the propeller, causing massive wounds to his torso and severing his right arm," the cops wrote. "Evans' right arm flew approximately 83 feet in the air to the north and struck a 1977 Piper Navajo aircraft on the left wing. This aircraft was parked facing south. After striking the wing Evans' arm flew 25 feet north and came to final rest on the ramp."
Evans was taken to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood, where he recovered from his injuries. But surgeons were not able to reattach the limb, according to a report in the Sun-Sentinel.
In May Evans's lawyer, Gregg Silverstein, filed suit against everyone who might be considered even remotely liable: Stubbs; Tek-Plus Security and Cresair, two companies that own and maintain property adjacent to the airport; and Pelican Airways, the business that owns the Cessna and leased it to Stubbs. Silverstein disagrees with the cops' assertion that his client jumped a fence. "Obviously we dispute that this incident is primarily his fault," he says. Stubbs didn't return phone calls.
The silliness doesn't stop there. Chris Jackson, who is affiliated with Tek-Plus and owns the 1977 Piper Navajo mentioned in the police report, is unhappy that his company is being dragged into this. "When the guy's arm flew through the air, it damaged my plane," Jackson says. "I should be the one to sue him."
Morals of the story: Fences are there for a reason, and propellers can be dangerous. However, should you find yourself dismembered and think you might be able to turn your misfortune into a fortune, call Silverstein.
Back in March Undercurrents took Sun-Sentinel reporter Vanessa Bauza to task for being a suck-up to Fidel Castro. Bauza had recently been installed in the paper's new Cuba bureau, and we thought her work reflected a fear of being ousted.
Well, we've changed our mind; tidal phenomena are notoriously fickle. Undercurrents is now of the opinion that Bauza is over there kicking ass and on the cusp of taking names. As evidence we cite three stories: one about Fidel's potential successors that beat The New York Times, a chilling tale of a woman who collects notes from political prisoners, and a nicely turned feature about Harley-Davidson aficionados keeping their ancient bikes on the road with spit and bailing wire. It's good stuff, and getting better.

Poll: Who's interested in Öhlins Suspension for the Big Bikes
Let's see a show of hands as to who would be interested in Öhlins suspension for either the KTM Adventure or the Super Enduro!
For years, BMW's have enjoyed the pleasure of Öhlins technology and unmatched quality. But where's the love for the orange bikes? Guess we're not ordering enough lattes...
As some of you may know, I've been running prototype Öhlins forks and shock on my SE990R for about 3 years now. In that time I've been pushing the boundaries of their suspension, and I've been nothing short of amazed with the new TTX Mk-II product.
Recently I've had several inquiries about making these items available for others to appreciate. Well, after spending some time at the Öhlins North American facility, it's become clear to me that if this is ever going to happen, we're going to have to make it happen ourselves.
Regards ~ Ken
I would be in! Any thoughts of building a shock that would match the long travel front end we have on our bikes. My front legs are off of a 09 530. From the looks of things I would think it would require a new upper shock mount to get the full travel and not be way up in the air. I could CNC them and have them ready to weld on. One way or another I would be in. Suspension is the name of the game. I was heading this route until I got caught up in the EnduroCross thing. Look forward to getting back to developing the SE!
Well Ken, I've got a 950 Supermoto. I just sold a Duc S4 with Ohlins. While the Duc was really well balanced , and worked very well, I can't fault the WPs on my KTM, in reality, they are plusher than my Duc. At least any difference isn't , to me, worth the couple thousand it would be to do up my KTM.
Hey Tim! The front suspension is physically limited by the radiator placement. We're giving up about 20mm to the EXC models in order to save that precious cooler. Also the underside of the triple clamp comes into play...
The rear shock would match the front at 277mm of wheel travel. I run this now and it's just plain ol' amazing. Guess I might have to let some people ride my bike to see what I'm talking about... :thumb
WP suspension is already top notch! That's what I got on my GS.
Yup WP is top shelf. Why would I switch to a similar level or inferior product?
Got it Ken! I did move the radiator in and running a 20" front wheel. I did forget my suspension guy limited my up travel a bit for the triples. I would love to give your bike a spin. I do believe its the best setup SE out there! I'm in for both.
Any concept of what "crazy expensive" means? Even a ball park.
Would these be bolt on legs?
As a guy that's worked with WP all the ways back to the White Power days, I can comfortably say that it's good suspension. Not great. Certainly not top shelf... and not even in the same ballpark as Öhlins. There's a reason why KTM doesn't even run their own product when they race.
But in line with these comments, in order to appreciate the Öhlins product you need to ride at a level that would justify the expense. I know there won't be many on here that can benefit from the upgrade, and that's why I've put out this "feeler" poll rather than go directly into production.
For the forks these would be a cartridge kit. You retain your original legs, but all the internals including the springs would be swapped out. The conversion would be completely reversible should you choose to take the suspension with you to another bike...
As for price? I'm not here yet... but it would depend a small amount on participation. I think a limited production would be the smart way to go about this...
Heya Ken
We have been trying to find out about a hydraulic or worm drive external preload adjuster for our SE.
I had one on my ST4S Duc and loved it.
Do you know if these are available at all for WP, I am a mediocre rider so I am very happy with WP for my level but an external spring preload adjuster would fill my needs well.
Please let me know
Many thanks Andi
The stock WP suspenders on the 990 are FAR superior to the entry level Ohlins by a long shot.
Having owned and ridden both, at a level that would appreciate it, I can say that I am more impressed with WP than Ohlins, hands down. (I had Ohlins on my F800GS and my G450X)
And there may be a KTM or two out there that run Ohlins, but the majority of KTM riders run WP.
Not saying Ohlins is inferior or bad stuff. Just saying that saying Ohlins is superior is a stretch.
Well... let's start with your pix above. What do any of these all aluminum cone valve forks have in common with the WP product that comes on a stock KTM? Not a damn thing short of their costing as much as a complete bike. The 4CS is a design entirely of compromise so WP can stop paying royalties to Öhlins for valve and reservoirs design. This is common knowledge.
And since you brought up the Trax, do you even know what a Trax shock is? It's just an SXS shock with a top-out spring built into the bottom yoke. Very cutting edge. Öhlins has the same part as a tuning item that installs internally. Not much there really. But I guess that's the beauty of the internet; everybody gets to read the random opinions of complete strangers and magically become an expert over night... next.
Not all Ohlins stuff is made equal. I am not interested in suspension due to brand. I will take a custom Ohlins/WP/Penske/Marzocci over an off-the-shelf product any day, because it is designed and tuned for me.

Nadal Questionable For the US Open and Federer worried of Nadal

[The injury] is not the same as other years, and I have found it a little different."
Federer concerned for injured Nadal
Ticker - Monday, August 13, 2012
Roger Federer says hes concerned about the health of his longtime rival, Rafael Nadal, who hasn't played since Wimbledon due to a knee injury.
"I was going to write him and check on him because I can't believe he's been out that long," Federer told reporters in Cincinnati. "I thought the Olympics, okay, that's fine. That's a personal choice. I thought for sure we would see him in Toronto, but now he missed Toronto and Cincinnati. It's very surprising, because it was nothing that we heard of prior to the injury. He played so well on clay, and then actually seemed fine at Wimbledon. He had more time by losing earlier at Wimbledon. So it came as big surprise now, these two pull outs for me. Even the Olympics, too. So I'm sad for him. I hope he'll be back for the [U.S.] Open."
Nadal injury could be way worse than 09.....looks like he aint in the Open this time. Federer looking worried....great to see that from a great ambassador. Truly think he misses Nadal like SW19 09!
I agree, this Federer person is soooo arrogant.
He is bragging about his ability to write ( Nadal can only Etch a Sketch the number 11)
Also, he is taunting Nadal's inability to bounce back from crushing defeats which even Federer went through from Nadal. Yet Roger comes back and fights again where as Rafa hides for weeks and weeks, galivanting in the company of other people's little children.
Come back Rafa, show us the steely determination you are supposed to be exhibiting

Study: Northwest Endured Worse Droughts
SEATTLE (AP) — The low snowpack in the Cascade Range is raising the specter of water shortages this summer, but a new study of tree-ring data indicates the Northwest has endured far worse droughts over the past 250 years – and is likely to again.
The study, published in the Journal of the American Water Resources Association, said the region endured six multiyear droughts between 1750 and 1950, including one that started in the 1840s and lasted for 12 years.
The authors – Dave Peterson of the U.S. Agriculture Department, Ze'ev Gedalof of the University of Guelph in Ontario, and Nate Mantua of the University of Washington's Climate Impacts Group – said the evidence shows a need for better drought planning in the Northwest.
"We've built most of our infrastructure in the last half-century or so, but we haven't had any major multiyear droughts during that time," said Peterson, who also teaches at the UW's College of Forest Resources. "The water has been overallocated. What do we do when we get into a five-year drought and everybody's competing for water? We haven't had to face that but we probably will."
Farmers and hydroelectric facilities depend heavily on the water flow in the Columbia River, and enough water needs to remain in the river basin to provide habitat for salmon.
The three conducted the study by coring out samples of tree trunks from around the region, sanding them down and digitizing the information left by the tree rings – enabling them to see how much the trees grew each year. By comparing that to known information about the Columbia River's flow since 1878, they were able to extrapolate how the level of the Columbia – essentially, how much rain and snow fell in a year – compared to tree growth.
They saw serious multiyear droughts in the 1840s and the 1930s – the latter a drought that, along with poor agriculture practices, caused the Dust Bowl.
"One of the things we have noted is that drought causes all kinds of conflict over limited water supplies," Mantua said. "We still haven't come up with a great collection of drought response plans in not just the Pacific Northwest, but throughout the West."
The Northwest's most recent drought was in 2001, but a more serious one – one that led to water restrictions even in rainy Western Washington – came in 1993. This year's snowpack is far below average so far, but scientists are holding out hope for snow in March and April.

Mandriva Acquires New CEO
The Mandriva project has selected Arnaud Laprévote as its CEO. He replaces Stanislas Bois who is taking over as the firm's CFO.
Arnaud Laprévote came to Mandriva by an interesting route. His Free&ALter Soft company founded in 1996 became part of Linbox as Linbox FAS in 2001. Linbox, in turn, was acquired by Mandriva in 2007.
Starting off as R&D manager, Laprévote has now been promoted to CEO by Mandriva's board of directors. He will also hold the CTO and director of R&D positions.
MandrivaRemember when Mandriva used to be relevant? Well, no, I guess Mandriva was never really relevant, but Mandrake once was.
I used to be a pretty ardent supporter of Mandrake, and maintained my own custom package repository for my own use and that of my clients. But then they went off on this education tangent that went nowhere, and merged with Conectiva, and let Ubuntu get way ahead of them in terms of hardware support and user experience. They dropped the ball. Glad to see they're still around, but unless they continue to exist primarily as a Linux support provider for the French government, I kind of wonder what the point is.

If litigating a lawsuit about compensation issues is a lot like doing a "dig" at an archeological site, the options back-dating scandal was a veritable Pompeii.

Arizona weighs legality of pupil confinement rooms
PHOENIX -- House lawmakers are reviewing the legality of solitary confinement rooms for school children.
A bill advancing in the House would generally require school boards to seek prior consent from parents before subjecting children to confinement rooms.
But principals and teachers wouldn't need consent if they determine the student poses imminent physical harm to themselves or others.
Last year, two parents sued the Deer Valley Unified School District for an unspecific amount after their son was placed in what school officials called a "cool-down room."
Using seclusion rooms is legal in Arizona, and each school district has its own policies.
