Is downgrading an employee's role an act of harassment?
This question was recently considered by the Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) in Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board v Hughes & Ors. Mrs Hughes was a senior nurse with 31 years' service. After contracting Parkinson's disease, she could no longer carry out her clinical role.
The hospital created a non-clinical role for her, which also preserved her salary. However, over time (a period of six years), the meaningful aspects of that role were chipped away at, to the point that 'a grade-six nursing sister [was] now being asked to look after cardboard boxes'.
The EAT upheld the tribunal's decision that this 'downgrading' of her role amounted to harassment related to disability — it was unwanted conduct that had the effect of violating her dignity and creating a demeaning environment for her…

Contained herein is material that is subject to copyright protection. The copyright owner has no objection to the facsimile reproduction of the patent disclosure by any person as it appears in the Patent and Trademark Office patent files or records, but otherwise reserves all rights to the copyright whatsoever.
This invention relates generally to the field of network data services. More particularly, the invention relates to an apparatus and method for synchronizing a wireless data processing device with a wireless messaging service.
A variety of wireless data processing devices have been introduced over the past several years. These include wireless personal digital assistants ("PDAs") such as the Palm� VIIx handheld, cellular phones equipped with data processing capabilities (e.g., those which include wireless application protocol ("WAP") support), and, more recently, wireless messaging devices such as the Blackberry™ wireless pager developed by Research In Motion ("RIM").™
Personal digital assistants such as the Palm devices typically provide only limited wireless messaging capabilities (e.g., instant messaging and basic Internet access). For example, these devices typically require a user to manually establish a connection to the Internet via an Internet Service Provider ("ISP") or to a corporate server to check e-mail messages.
Although corporate messaging systems such as the RIM Blackberry provide more comprehensive messaging capabilities, there are significant limitations to these systems. Specifically, these systems employ e-mail "redirection" or "forwarding" techniques in which messages are redirected to the wireless device only if certain conditions are met. These conditions, referred to as "redirection events," may include, for example, an indication that the user is not working at his corporate desktop (e.g., removal of the wireless device from the desktop cradle, a screen saver firing on the desktop, . . . etc) or a manual redirection command initiated by the user (e.g., via the wireless device or the corporate desktop). One such message redirection system is described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,219,694 ("System and Method for Pushing Information From a Host System to a Mobile Data Communication Device Having a Shared Electronic Address").
As a result, these systems are (as a practical matter) incapable of providing complete synchronization between the wireless device and the corporate e-mail database. For example, because messages are only redirected to the wireless device under certain conditions (e.g., following a redirection event), at any given point in time, the wireless device may contain an incomplete set of e-mail data. Moreover, even when messages are actively being forwarded to the wireless device, the e-mail data stored at the wireless device and the e-mail database are not truly synchronized. For example, certain types of transactions performed on the wireless device, such as an indication that a message has been viewed by the user, message deletions, movement of messages from one folder to another, . . . etc., are not updated at the e-mail service wirelessly.
Moreover, only basic e-mail functions such as sending and receiving messages may be controlled at the wireless device. More advanced e-mail management functions must be set at the user's desktop (e.g., configuring e-mail filters, outgoing e-mail signatures, security settings such as passwords, . . . etc).
In addition, prior messaging systems require a corporate desktop to which the device must be attached when the user is in the office. The problem with this is not merely that a corporate desktop is required, but also that the corporate desktop must be configured with software and a proprietary "cradle" that allows it to communicate directly to the wireless device.
Accordingly, what is needed is a system and method for providing complete synchronization and management between a wireless device and a messaging service (e.g., a corporate e-mail account). What is also needed is a wireless apparatus for receiving and sending e-mail messages, which does not require a corporate desktop or any software to be installed and executed on the corporate desktop.
According to one embodiment, a method is described. The method includes receiving identification (ID) information from a messaging service at a data center to initiate a wireless data service between the messaging service and a wireless device. The method also includes the data center establishing one or more routing connections between the wireless device and the messaging service. Each of the one or more routing connections corresponds to a data service component authorized by the data center.
A better understanding of the present invention can be obtained from the following detailed description in conjunction with the following drawings, in which:
In the following description, for the purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without some of these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and devices are shown in block diagram form to avoid obscuring the underlying principles of the present invention.
Reference in the specification to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of the invention. The appearances of the phrase "in one embodiment" in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment.
Servers 103 may be configured to provide a variety of different messaging and groupware services 102 to network users (e.g., e-mail, instant messaging, calendaring, . . . etc). In one embodiment, these services are provided by Microsoft Exchange.™ However, the underlying principles of the invention are not limited to any particular messaging/groupware platform.
In one embodiment, an interface 100 forwards data objects maintained by service 102 (e.g., e-mail messages, instant messages, calendar data, . . . etc) to a plurality of wireless data processing devices (represented in
Alternatively, or in addition, the service 102 may provide the e-mail to the user's local computer (e.g., client 110) upon request (i.e., so that the user will receive the e-mail on his/her wireless device 130 when out of the office and on his/her personal computer 110 when in the office). Conversely, e-mail messages sent from the user's wireless data processing device 130 are transmitted to the service 102 via the interface 100.
In one embodiment, the interface 100 is a software module adapted to work with the particular service 102. It should be noted, however, that interface 100 may be implemented in hardware or any combination of hardware and software while still complying with the underlying principles of the invention.
In one embodiment, the external data network 170 is comprised of a plurality of databases, servers/clients (not shown) and other networking hardware (e.g., routers, hubs, . . . etc) for transmitting data between the interface 100 and the wireless devices 130. In one embodiment, the interface 100 encapsulates data in one or more packets containing an address identifying the wireless devices 130 (e.g., such as a 24-bit Mobitex Access Number ("MAN #")).
The external data network 170 transmits the packets to a wireless service provider network 171, which in turn, transmits the packets (or the data contained therein) over a wireless communication link to the wireless device 130. In one embodiment, the wireless service provider network is a 2-way paging network. However, various other network types may be employed (e.g., CDMA 2000, GPRS, PCS, . . . etc) while still complying with the underlying principles of the invention.
It should be noted that the network service provider network 171 and the external data network 170 (and associated interface 100) may be owned/operated by the same organization or, alternatively, the owner/operator of the external data network 170 may lease wireless services from the wireless service provider network. The underlying principles of the invention are not limited to any particular service arrangement.
According to one embodiment, wireless service to a device 130 is initiated by downloading software to the device 130. In such an embodiment, the device 130 is coupled directly to client 110 and initialized by installing the applicable software. The direct connection between wireless device 130 and client 110 may be a wired or wireless (e.g., Bluetooth) connection. According to a further embodiment, no further configuration is required. Particularly, the device 130 user is not required to take any further action to begin service.
Subsequently, the wireless device 130 is turned on for the first time. Thus, at processing block 230, device 130 requests data network 170 to establish a connection with server 103 by providing the network address and the serial number. At processing block 240, data network 170 compares the identification information received from the wireless device and the identification information received from interface 100 in order to validate whether the device 130 is authorized to access server 103 based upon data received from interface 100.
In addition, data network 170 compares the identification information with a valid service plan that has been previously established for the device at purchase time. Once the service for the device 103 is authorized, data network 170 establishes one or more connections between wireless device 130 and interface 100.
According to one embodiment, a permanent connection is established at data network 170 for each type of service, e.g., email, calendar address book, etc. The connections represent routing information (e.g., a connection ID) that is in used to deliver service specific messages to and from device 130.
In one embodiment, each connection within data network 170 represents a wireless service authorized by a service plan provided to data network 170. According to one embodiment, connection 0 is a channel defined to be a provisioning service that is used to establish other services The provisioning service validates the authentication of device 130 each time device 130 attempts to provision on the network. In addition, the provisioning service verifies the service plan associated with the wireless device 130.
In a further embodiment, connection 1 represents an e-mail service, connection 2 represents a calendar service and connection 3 represents an address book service. As described above, each connection stored in network 170 is permanent. Consequently, subsequent communication between device 130 and server 103 are made faster and more efficient. According to one embodiment each connection is private, thus, guaranteeing that messages are only sent or received by devices and servers that have previously established connections.
According to one embodiment, a wireless device 130 user's service may be upgraded/downgraded without configuration of wireless device 130. Accordingly, it is not necessary for a user to take action to establish the new service plan.
Referring to
At processing block 420, data network 170 transmits a message to the wireless device 130 indicating that a new service plan has been established for the device 130. At processing block 430, the device 130 accesses data network 170 to ascertain the service adjustments. At processing block 440, information corresponding to the service change is transmitted from data network 170 to the wireless device 130. As a result, services are added to (or deleted from) wireless device 130. At processing block 450, routing connections at data network 170 are updated based upon the service change.
In a further embodiment, the additional e-mail accounts (e.g., connection 4 and connection 5) enable a user to access accounts having different e-mail addresses.
Computer system 700 further comprises a random access memory (RAM) or other dynamic storage device 725 (referred to herein as main memory), coupled to bus 720 for storing information and instructions to be executed by processor 710. Main memory 725 also may be used for storing temporary variables or other intermediate information during execution of instructions by processor 710. Computer system 700 also may include a read only memory (ROM) and/or other static storage device 726 coupled to bus 720 for storing static information and instructions used by processor 710.
A data storage device 725 such as a magnetic disk or optical disc and its corresponding drive may also be coupled to computer system 700 for storing information and instructions. Computer system 700 can also be coupled to a second I/O bus 750 via an I/O interface 730. A plurality of I/O devices may be coupled to I/O bus 750, including a display device 724, an input device (e.g., an alphanumeric input device 723 and/or a cursor control device 722).
The communication device 721 is for accessing other computers (servers or clients) via network 170. The communication device 721 may comprise a modem, a network interface card, or other well-known interface device, such as those used for coupling to Ethernet, token ring, or other types of networks.
Embodiments of the invention may include various steps as set forth above. The steps may be embodied in machine-executable instructions. The instructions can be used to cause a general-purpose or special-purpose processor to perform certain steps. Alternatively, these steps may be performed by specific hardware components that contain hardwired logic for performing the steps, or by any combination of programmed computer components and custom hardware components.
Elements of the present invention may also be provided as a machine-readable medium for storing the machine-executable instructions. The machine-readable medium may include, but is not limited to, floppy diskettes, optical disks, CD-ROMs, and magneto-optical disks, ROMs, RAMs, EPROMs, EEPROMs, magnetic or optical cards, propagation media or other type of media/machine-readable medium suitable for storing electronic instructions. For example, the present invention may be downloaded as a computer program which may be transferred from a remote computer (e.g., a server) to a requesting computer (e.g., a client) by way of data signals embodied in a carrier wave or other propagation medium via a communication link (e.g., a modem or network connection).
Throughout the foregoing description, for the purposes of explanation, numerous specific details were set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the invention. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that the invention may be practiced without some of these specific details. For example, while illustrated as an interface 100 to a service 102 executed on a server 103 (see
Moreover, although described in the context of a wireless data processing device, the underlying principles of the invention may be implemented to compress data in virtually any networking environment, both wired and wireless. Accordingly, the scope and spirit of the invention should be judged in terms of the claims which follow.

Update, 12 p.m. Saturday:
Anchorage Police on Saturday issued the following statement: "Following news coverage last night, Katherine Baker made contact with her son who lives in Wasilla. She is alive and well."
Earlier story:
An Anchorage woman has been missing since July 3, and police are asking for help from the public in finding her.
Management staff at Katherine Lee Baker's northeast Anchorage apartment building last saw her July 3, a police spokeswoman said in a written statement Friday. Baker, 56, usually keeps in contact with her family when not at her apartment off Oklahoma Street, but no one has reported hearing from her for more than two weeks, said the police spokeswoman, Anita Shell.
Baker's daughter, who lives out of state, called police Tuesday, Shell said.
"Baker had mentioned visiting the Anchor Point and Homer areas, but is not one to camp out," Shell said. "Additionally, Baker has a medical condition that requires medication."
Police described Baker as 5 feet, 7 inches and 160 pounds with long brown and gray hair and blue eyes. She drives a red 2010 Subaru Legacy with the Alaska license plate GLR619, tinted windows and a "flush-mount" rear spoiler, police said.
Anyone with information on Baker's whereabouts is asked to call 786-8900.
Reach Casey Grove at firstname.lastname@example.com or 257-4589.

You might have seen a new page called Deviceknit, it's on twitter, Facebook and on the web, it's a pretty cool thing. But what exactly is it?
By now you have probably heard about instructables, Instructables is a site where you share small guides on how to do stuff.
Well.. Deviceknit might the tech-lovers new instructables. It basically lets people share different things you can do with the gadgets you already own.
For an example, If you have any old DSLR or digital camera just lying around, and at the same time you just upgraded that old iPhone to a shiny new Android device? It would be a shame to let those device's fade. So here is a 'Deviceknit Implementation' that shows how to make a 3d hologram using those two devices. And here is another for making a home surveilance system using an iphone and a mac! It's a pretty nifty site infact, iknow you are looking at that old dusty gadget in you closet now. Well what are you waiting for? Go see what can be done with it, DeviceKnit! (more…)

Holy crap these waterfalls are going upwards! And the wind is to blame, apareantely there is one heck of a storm going on in Australia right now.
Winds are now so strong on the southern coast of Australia—74.5mph (120km/h)—that waterfalls are running upwards. The water is just being blown up from the bottom. The situation's crazy, especially for those commuters in their ferries.
According to the BBC, "nearly a month's worth of rain has fallen on [Sidney] in 24 hours".

Apple has finally released their new version of Mac os X, while developers have had acces to it for some time already the public can now get it for a small sum. You can get it from the Mac Appstore as an installer package. Later on Apple will also begin selling thumb drives with the operating system on it for 69$.
Would you let your kids use a Cirkular saw? With this technology i would. This technology uses conductors on the blade to sense a when to stop, perhaps when a finger crosses? It cost's roughly 60$ to replace the break and the blade, but a finger can never be replaced. Also it looks really cool in highspeed film. This clip was taken from TimeWarp on Discovery channel.

One of the downsides of the Jacoby Ellsbury (other than the obvious losing-an-MVP-caliber-center-fielder piece of it) was that the Sox had to designate two young players for assignment. One was Michael Bowden, a once promising pitcher who flamed out as a below-average reliever in Boston. The other was Luis Exposito, a catcher some of us hoped would take the reigns from Jason Varitek. Exposito was jumped in the org chart by Ryan Lavarnway, and today officially left the club when he was claimed by Baltimore.
It's not likely Expo will come back to haunt the Red Sox -- he can't seem to keep his OPS over 700 in Pawtucket. His destination is a little surprising given the O's youthful catching tandem at the big-league level (Matt Wieters and Taylor Teagarden), but they had their own prospect bust to get rid of in Josh Bell, so perhaps they just needed some catching depth in the minors.
Bowden could be a different story, once he latches on elsewhere (the chances he slides through the ten-day waiver process like Scott Atchison are, in my mind, basically zero). Bowden was a first-round pick and has shown talent in the minors. High-caliber prospects like that tend to get a lot of second chances regardless of how pedestrian they look in the bigs (hi, Andrew Miller!). I wouldn't be surprised if Theo came calling on Bowden.

This past Thursday the Washington Post reported on a story that's been causing no small amount of controversy in Britain, even sparking comment from the Prime Minister and the Queen Herself. It centers on the small English town of Bideford, and litigation over Christian prayers said as part of the official agenda during Town Council meetings. Here's how the Washington Post leads things off."Perhaps the locals should have anticipated sparks on a town council stocked not only with a … [Read more...]

Vote on Religious Materials in Buncombe County Schools Tonight
Tonight, the Buncombe County School Board in North Carolina is scheduled to vote on a new policy regarding the distribution of religious material in public schools. This vote, if it happens, will be the culmination of controversy that began this past December, when North Carolina Pagan Ginger Strivelli challenged her child's school's policy regarding the distribution of religious materials. Strivelli felt that the manner in which Gideon Bibles were made available violated the Establishment Claus … [Read more...]
Constitution Classes and Christian Indoctrination
Considering the fact that I just wrote about religion, pluralism, and the pagan roots of American democracy mere days ago, it seems ironic that a scandal would break out over classes for government employees that assert the essential Christian character of this nation.

Our "Pagan" President and our Pagan Democracy
Earlier this month, Professor Anouar Majid, author of "We Are All Moors: Ending Centuries of Crusades against Muslims and Other Minorities", wrote a guest column for Informed Comment. In this column, Majid noted that "democracy and republicanism arose in pagan, polytheistic cultures, ones whose people could live with many gods." In Majid's mind, no culture can truly embrace and enjoy the values of democracy, of representative government, without also embracing the "religious pluralism and c … [Read more...]

Quote of the Day: Low-hanging fruit edition
Feb 4, 2011, 4:22 PM EDT
Buster Olney — who isn't known to crack wise on Twitter very often — cracked wise on Twitter this afternoon in response to the Wilpon-Madoff mess:
The Mets' best defense in Madoff suit: We signed Oliver Perez and Luis Castillo to $60m deals-and WE were supposed to sniff out Ponzi scheme?
See, that's funny, but there is a core of horror there for all Mets fans.
As far as I can see, there really are really only two explanations for the Wilpons' current mess: (1) they were, as the bankruptcy trustee alleges, willfully blind or even indifferent to the warning signs that surrounded the Bernie Madoff investments; or (2) they were simply ignorant of all of the risks and warning signs despite their vast investment experience and business sophistication.
Negligent or dumb? Take your pick. Neither one is very comforting.
- Mr. Jason "El Bravo" Heyward - Feb 4, 2011 at 4:41 PM
Aside from 27 championships, it must be really great being a Yankees fan when the other team in your town is the God-forsaken Metropolitans.
- fribnit - Feb 4, 2011 at 4:48 PM
Yes, yes it is
- Brian Murphy - Feb 4, 2011 at 4:43 PM
- billybeaneismyhero - Feb 4, 2011 at 7:43 PM
Based on the fact they dropped $60M on Castillo and Perez, I'm going with dumb. Actually, now that I think about it, negligent also works for that as well.
- Jonny 5 - Feb 4, 2011 at 8:34 PM
I tend to think they knew they were involded in a load of BS and decided to play dumb now that Bernie got busted.You don't "blindly" throw that much loot to anyone.
- cur68 - Feb 4, 2011 at 8:39 PM
So many smart people got bilked by madoff. The Wilpons are actually on a distinguished list. Castillo & Perez were a way more legit investment than old Bernie ever was. Of the mistakes herein, my opinion is that Castillo and Perez were the safer bet. @ least you could keep an eye on your investment, as opposed to blindly trusting Bernie Madoff-with-your-dough. I feel for ya Mets fans. I used to root for the Expos. This is the old double whammy; dud players and a franchise that is on shaky financial footing (the Expos's stadium was also on dubious foundations as well; the roof fell off once, alas). This and like tragedies I know oh so well.

Heinz, the Baron Krauss von Espy: [in outrageous French accent] She spe-cif-i-cated a silly man.

Freddy Bender: Objection, Your Honor!
Miles Massey: Shut up, Freddy. She's allowing it.

But his time as a car salesman preceded the launch of his retail boot business and other clothing outlets by about 15 years.

Trued1: Original Hasselblad was designed by the same Swedish guy Sixten Sason who also designed the first Saab car models 92-93-96-99. His colleague Björn Envall ex. Saab design boss should have designed this camera. I bet this is a 100% italian job NOT Swedish. Looks odd to say the least.
No, this can not be Italian. They produce a lot of Euro-trash besides the world's most elegant products but this does not look and smell like Italian. The organic shape resembles Japanese cars. I see Asian influence with materials Hermes would apply. They may have commissioned a Japanese artist who is now in hiding.
The Pontiac Aztek of the cameras!
An exceptionally unattractive camera. 70s retro has never really came back. What a waste of design and manufacturing.

BOSTON -- No one stands to benefit if the owners opt to lock out the players once again to force yet another work stoppage if a new collective bargaining agreement for the NHL can't be reached this summer. But the Bruins could be in line to lose more than most, as even a brief lockout could keep talented defense prospect Dougie Hamilton out of the NHL for an extra year. Hamilton, the ninth overall pick of the 2011 draft, is expected to make the leap to the big club in Boston this season and play in the Bruins' top six...

Jean-Luc Godard's films shine despite Oscar snubs
From 1959 to 1967, Godard produced masterpieces like Pierrot le Fou, Masculin Féminin, La Chinoise and Weekend
|Report an Error
Share via Email
If there were a prize for the most baffling category in the annual Academy Awards race, it would surely go to Best Foreign-Language Film.
Go to the TIFF Bell Lightbox for a demonstration of how absurd the history of this Oscar category has been — from the perspective of a serious Toronto film buff devoted to great movies in a language other than English — ever since 1956 when the category was added to the list of awards.
With Part 1 of its Jean-Luc Godard retrospective, the Toronto International Film Festival is providing one of the most rewarding cultural treats of the season, which is particularly welcome given the overwhelming evidence that contrary to what T.S. Eliot wrote in a famous poem, April is not really the cruellest month. It's January.
As you can see for yourself by taking advantage of this retrospective, in eight years from 1959 to 1967, Godard burned up the screen with a string of masterpieces unequalled in the history of cinema. So how many times did Godard movies win the Oscar for Best Foreign-Language Film of the year? None. And how many nominations did they receive? None.
But while the academy was ignoring Godard, many of us were getting excited. Certainly Godard enriched my life in a memorable way because, having landed a job as movie critic for the Star when I was too young to be qualified for it, I had the pleasure of reviewing Pierrot le Fou, Masculin Féminin, La Chinoise and Weekend for this newspaper. All four of them opened in Toronto in a 53-week period between late October 1967 and early November 1968.
And now you can see those four at the Lightbox, along with such other brilliant Godard movies as Breathless, Contempt and Band of Outsiders.
Then on March 2, we will find out which of this year's five nominated foreign-language films will win the Oscar. But few people watching will realize how bizarre is the process by which that selection is made.
To be eligible, a film had to be not only made in a language other than English; it had to be chosen as the official entry by the government of a country outside the U.S., and it had to be released in its own country for seven consecutive days before last Sept. 30.
That's why Blue Is the Warmest Color, considered by many the year's top foreign film, was ineligible. It didn't open theatrically in France until later last fall, even though it had already been widely acclaimed at Cannes in May.
There were entries from 76 countries and the ones to make the list of five nominees are decided through screenings by committees set up by the academy. Then, when it comes to deciding which nominee gets the Oscar, voting is restricted to academy members who have seen all five. So it seems likely that a huge number of the 6,000 members of the academy won't be voting in this category.
Canada has been lucky in recent times. Denys Arcand was the only winner, for The Barbarian Invasions, but there were nominations for several other French-language movies from Quebec (including War Witch, Incendies and Monsieur Lazhar), and one for a movie that was made in Hindi: Deepa Mehta's Water.
But this year Canada's entry, Gabrielle, did not make the cut.
The five nominees are Belgium's The Broken Circle Breakdown, Cambodia's The Missing Picture, Denmark's The Hunt, Italy's The Great Beauty and the Palestinian film Omar.
As for Godard, his great period ended with Weekend. He went on making movies for many years, but many of his admirers, me included, found them not just disappointing but unwatchable.
"The whole movie conveys a thrilling sense of burning itself out along with world it shows," I wrote at the conclusion of my review for the Star. "Weekend really could be, as Godard calls it, 'a film found on the scrapheap, a film gone astray in the cosmos.' The end of the film, he tells us, is also the end of cinema. And where is there to go after this?"
Now we can ignore the academy's lapses, skip Godard's later movies and relive his glorious achievements in eight astonishing years half a century ago.

Jason Bay is looking for a fresh start ESPN.com's Brock and Salk show has reported that the Seattle Mariners are close to a deal with former Mets outfielder Jason Bay. At this point the potential terms of the deal have not been disclosed. If you remember, The Seattle Mariners were one of the other teams in pursuit of Bay when the Mets eventually won out and signed him. It's too bad they didn't outbid the Mets during that forgettable offseason.

Keith Urban Reveals 'Somewhere in My Car' Lyric Video – Exclusive Premiere
Hailing from his 'Fuse' album, Keith Urban's 'Somewhere in My Car' lyric video is a moody and melancholy backdrop to an uptempo song.
Hailing from his 'Fuse' album, Keith Urban's 'Somewhere in My Car' lyric video is a moody and melancholy backdrop to an uptempo song.
Keith Urban and his wife, actress Nicole Kidman, displayed amazing grace during a visit to a children's hospital on Friday (June 13).
Luke Bryan was recently named the sexiest man in country music but there's one country star who disagrees. Carrie Underwood thinks Keith Urban is by far the best lookin' guy in the genre.
Tens of thousands of country fans braved heavy rain showers and cast aside worries about the LP Field show scheduled for day three of CMA Music Festival being cancelled, to enjoy Keith Urban, Florida Georgia Line and more on Saturday night.
Keith Urban doesn't always get it right. He has come a long way since he released his self-titled debut album in 1999 and he's not afraid to admit he has made a few mistakes along the way. He admits his worst ever idea involved candles and a dark stage.
In January, Sam Hunt was named Taste of Country's No. 1 Artist to Watch in 2014. Now fans can find out why. The singer has signed to MCA Nashville and released a video for an R&B-flavored love song called 'Speakers.' Watch it now, during this ToC exclusive premiere.
This summer's best tours show off the veritable cream of the crop in country solo acts -- veterans of the stage who know how to consistently and unflinchingly put on an absolutely killer concert. Even better, these masters of the sizzling summer show are sharing the stage with a mix of opening acts who are well on their way to headlining a tour of their own.
Now that Season 13 of 'American Idol' has wrapped up and crowned its new champion, everyone's wondering about next season's judging panel. And country fans specifically are asking if Keith Urban will return to 'American Idol.'
Lady Antebellum is bringing their newest song 'Bartender' to the 'American Idol' stage.
Keith Urban took a moment from judging 'American Idol' to perform a song from his 'Fuse' album on the show. Urban got to show the contestants, and fans just how it's done with a rockin' performance of the song.

The food isn't terrible, but the service is absolutely atrocious and it is way over-priced. There are two places, one on York and 86 and the other on 1st and 88 (which I think is temporarily closed due to a fire) that are light years beyond this place. I have lived up here for about four years and I often decide to give this place another chance. But it just keeps getting worse. Now I go to see how low they can go. Do not go to this place.

After waiting 10 minutes for a gyro, I was told that they had run out of pitas. They offered to make it into a wrap instead. Fine I said. After another 10 minutes, they rang up the item and charged me an extra dollar. When I asked why, I was told that it cost more because it was a wrap. The logic that it was only a wrap because they had run out of an item listed on their menu was lost on them (or rather, as they had poor attitudes, they just liked being that difficult). Either way, I will never go back.

I go here every morning and they have memorized my order- I don't even have to ask for it anymore it just appears on the counter! They have rewarded me with free bananas every once in a while too! I also get delivery from here most Saturday morning. Their Bacon Egg and Cheese on a bagel will cure any hangover! The delivery on the weekends can be a bit spotty; one time they showed up in literary 5 mins (on a sat am!), usually it will be more like 30 mins.
Posted by Neighbor on 04/04/2009
With the exception of one guy who works here, I have to say I've never been served by a ruder bunch of guys. I've been living in this hood now, and with the loss of business, due to the 2nd ave construction, you'd figure they'd do what ever they could to get people to come back. The last time I went to grab some breakfast, I was ignored for a good 5 minutes (@10:55am), with 5 guys running around in the back, but no one else being served. By the time I was paying for my breakfast, the guy charged me an additional dollar because he said I ordered after 11! Come on people! I'm a familiar face and the service is constantly poor. Get your act together!
Posted by BagelFiend on 03/28/2009
I love the bagels and coffee at both Bagel Express I and II (2nd ave at 65th Street), but anytime you call for delivery- the guy berates you and 60% of the time they get your order wrong. I once ordered sausage, and the guy delivered bacon. When calling to ask for an exchange, the guy was extremely rude and arrogant, and flat out accused me of ordering incorrectly. They always forget to include toast, etc. He also hung up on me on another occasion. It's amazing that the owner doesn't care about this issue, and I believe they're losing business because of the staff's attitude. It's too bad because I go elsewhere for bagels now.
Posted by Jon on 02/15/2009
I try to stop here at least once a week on my way to work. By far the best bagels in the neighborhood, and I think the best I've had in Manhattan.
Posted by UES eater on 10/20/2008
A few things about this place: 1) The french toast is great 2) BUT the bagels are freakishly doughy. The are more like focaccia bread. 3) If you get a breakfast plate, be sure to get the platter (with eggs, bacon and coffee). It isn't any cheaper to get it without. In fact, I was charged a dollar extra. 4) Sometimes the guy on the phone is nice, but most of the time, he is a real &*$#.

American Indian Charter School (Oakland, CA)
I am seeking recent experiences at American Indian Charter School in Oakland. Reviews have been mixed. The biggest complaints seem to have been too much homework, overly strict and a strong discouragement of parental involvement. My son enjoys school but still takes his education seriously. I would hate for his initial middle school experience to be a killjoy. Also, I'm actively involved in my son's education and would hate to be told that I could not volunteer or share concerns. Your comments/observations are appreciated. Thank you! Concerned Parent
