Legendary for its opulence, this restaurant has been wowing patrons since 1968. After a face-lift in 2010, antiques, gilt-framed paintings, a chandelier from the Paris Opera House, and Tiffany stained-glass windows from New York's Trinity Church are the fitting background for some of Miami's best cuts. The tried-and-true menu also includes prime rib, bone-in fillet, lobster gratinée, chocolate soufflé, and sinful side dishes like creamed spinach and black truffle mac-and-cheese potpie. For its walk-in humidor alone, the over-the-top Forge is worth visiting. Automated wine machines span the perimeter of the restaurant and allow you to pick your own pour and sample several wines throughout your meal.

This place is incredible. I knew about the Forge but had never been before. I LOVE IT! The best wine selection in Miami. And they have the itouch sync to order your wines and learn about them. It's a must have experience. Best steak I've ever had. Great server.

It's a great place to eat. Not in the mood for having to deal with having to monitor the restaurant's service and food. In other words, I wanted to be taken care of. And I was! The Forge is excellent. Their famous steak was as advertised. Get it medium rare. You have a selection of wine like nothing you have ever experienced. I gaurantee it.

Yes. This place is fine dining at it's best. And like one of the previous reviews said, it really isn't too pricey for higher end meals. And the meals were higher end by all standards. We have been coming here this summer a lot. I pretty much stick with the steaks (ribeye, filet mignon), but have had the snapper and salmon. I cannot say for sure which I liked better so I guess you will just have to try for yourself! It's worth it.

I seriously love the Forge. I like a good steak with wine every so often (I'd eat steak everyday if it wasn't so unhealthy!) Their ribeye and "famous steak" are really the best I've had. And the wine selection makes it a great night. I went with a few friends for a Thursday night dinner and we just had a great time. I tried the tuna also and that was fantastic. If you like food and atmosphere (who doesn't?) Id honestly say The Forge could be
the best in Miami.

What a beautiful place to have dinner. I'd recommend coming early and sitting by the bar and having a few glasses of wine and just enjoy the ambiance of the bar area with the wine machine and friendly bar tenders. Unfortunately, we only had a few minutes there before we were seated. Not that we were upset! The seating is really unique and comfortable yet classy. They have a really great selection of food (especially seafood and steak). I started
out with the tataki and had the duck as the main course. Obviously, we shared because it was so much food, but that worked out even better as I was able to taste my husbands steak. It melted in my mouth! The desert was great too. Thank you Forge for a wonderful time!!

I was here last Friday night and let me tell you this place is worth every penny. To start, the atmosphere is just beautiful. They take care of you in every way as well. I mean literally...have a question about the restaurant? food? wine? they are literally right there and seemed genuinely happy to be of service. My husband took me here as a surprise and he couldn't have made a better choice. I have to recommend the lobster bisque and risotto.
I have never had either better anywhere! The snapper was incredible as well (server filleted right there!) This was an experience I will not soon forget. Have to give credit to my hubby for this call...

I'm not sure about this previous review, because my wife and I went to the Forge this past weekend and our experience was wonderful. I agree that the markup on wine was good and would also say that the selection was fabulous. Did that guy really taste all those meals? (I suspect this is someone from a local competitor). To start out, if you are looking for an amazing steak then I would defintely order their super steak. My wife had the snapper
and we had to share because we liked each other's meals so much! The service was excellent. The server was extremely pleasant and funny and it looked like everyone was having a great time over at the bar. I'd highly recommend the Forge if you are looking for a fabulous dining experience...

Where do I begin. The hostess was a rude and obnoxious; the bartender didn't acknowledge our presence for the first 30 minutes while we waited 1:30 for our table (no exaggeration); after all of that I was hoping the food would make up for the disastrous start to the evening but it didn't. The Lobster PP&J was average; the filet mignon and short ribs were horrible and my baked potato wasn't worth eating. The only decent thing about the restaurant was
the mark-up on wine was reasonable and the valet was $5. Other than that there are hundreds of other restaurants on the beach that are worth the money, especially if you are looking for a steak (Prime 112, Red, BLT Steak, etc.).

We booked dinner for the Miami Spice menu, not expecting it to be as lavish as the regular high-priced menu. Boy were we right. The portions were tiny- my caesar salad was drenched in dressing and cheap parmesan cheese- I have had better at Macaroni Grill. The tenderloin was tasty, but the waitstaff delivered the wrong temperature steak to myself and my 3 dinner companions. The presentation was very plain..I guess if you are ordering from the Miami
Spice menu you don't even get a garnish. The potato salad was the size of two quarters. In addition, the Cheesecake was flavorless..How do you make cheesecake flavorless? The service was ok. Not great. Definitely not 5 star. I have heard good things about the Forge but I guess they treat the Miami Spice customers as second class citizens. I ask why they are even participating then?

Lets just say for the price you pay here - its just not worth it. They got our order wrong and the service wasnt up to par. The steaks were great but you can get a great steak in many Miami restaurants. We had to argue with our waiter to take the cost off for a dessert we didnt even order!!! If you are there for a special occasion be careful - they charge you $3 for a sparkler candle which they dont even offer as an extra - they just light it and
then charge you for it. Give me a break!! Fyi....$5 for valet. They sure find ways to charge you for "little" things after bringing you the bill. I suggest Azul at the Mandarin....just an amazing restaurant. The Forge was a disappointment.
No Thanks

The report of an alleged assault landed a LaFollette woman in jail on Sunday.
On Nov. 15, Christy Lea Teague, 21, of East Wooland Court, LaFollette, was arrested for driving on a suspended license and multiple drug charges, according to a Jacksboro Police report.
What appeared to be a routine clean-up effort at the intersection of Highway 25W and Austin Powder Lane for Environmental Services officer Glennis Monday and crew on Monday turned into much more of an effort than they originally planned.
The city of Jellico will host its Christmas tree lighting ceremony on Nov. 18. The ceremony will be held at 6 p.m. in the Veteran's Park. The event will offer hot chocolate and cookies, Christmas carols will be led by Carbide Warman. The ceremony will be concluded in time for church service.
Last week, Joseph Smith faced a judge accused of severely abusing Peyton Douglas.
On Tuesday, Michelle Ann Mae Douglas, Peyton's mother, appeared in court under the same cloud of suspicion.
But she didn't opt for General Sessions Judge Joe Ayers to weigh the evidence in her case. Instead 23-year-old Douglas waived her preliminary hearing sending her case straight to the grand jury. However she did have one request.
On the heels of a gun related incident at Campbell County High School board members took action to provide an extra measure of security for students.
Asking for an amendment to the evening's agenda Board Member Johnny Byrge asked for the addition of a School Resource Officer position to the staff at CCHS. With no opposition to the measure, Byrge took the opportunity to state his reasoning for the request.
"I think it's something everybody knows we need," Byge said candidly regarding his motion to hire another SRO.
In the days following Nov. 3 school officials and law enforcement have taken a hard look at the procedures in place for a gun being discovered on school property.
Last week's incident at Campbell County High School left one student in custody.
And while Dr. Michael Martin, director of schools, believes there were parts of the plan that needed clarification, the response of administrators and law enforcement is to be commended.
You can't conduct business if you're not there; that's the conundrum that the Jellico Mayor and Aldermen have found themselves in.
The Jellico Board of Mayor and Aldermen have held 10 meetings since mid August, with seven of those meetings being specially called. Of those seven, there have been six meetings where a quorum was not met due to lack of attendance.
Specifically, the last three meetings that have been special called by Mayor Forrester Baird have not taken place.

Indeed, the Sutton Hoo finds provide the centrepiece for the new Sir Paul and Lady Jill Ruddock Gallery (Room 41), designed to display the museum's exceptional early medieval collection. Covering finds from across Europe from AD 300 to 1100, the Ruddock Gallery shows off not only the Anglo-Saxons' iconic Sutton Hoo masked helmet, but also late Roman mosaics and such extraordinary objects as the fourth-century Lycurgus Cup, made to change colour in different lights, and the Kells Crozier, a holy yew wood staff decorated and adapted many times from the ninth century onwards.
The V&A houses one of the world's greatest collections of decorative arts, in such varied fields as ceramics, sculpture, portrait miniatures and photography. Among the highlights are the British Galleries 1500-1900, which are arranged chronologically to trace the history of British design from the reign of Henry VIII to that of Queen Victoria. The major names of each era are highlighted, from Chippendale to Morris, Adam to Mackintosh, and alongside the displays of furniture, textiles, dress, ceramics, glass, jewellery, prints, paintings and sculpture there are computer interactives, objects to handle, video screens and audio programmes. The Whiteley Silver Galleries house collections of European Silver (1400 to 1800), containing more than 500 outstanding silver and gold objects dating from medieval times to the Napoleonic era. The other major displays are English Silver (pre-1800) and International Silver (1800 to the present). Opened in 2006, the Dorothy and Michael Hintz galleries, which are part of the museum's ten-year refurbishment plan, house sculptures from the V&A's existing collections. Located by the Madejski garden, they allow in natural light to show the mix of contemporary and Victorian architecture used in their construction, including the nineteenth-century monochrome mosaic flooring revealed when the 1960s lino was stripped. The Jameel Gallery of Islamic Art covers a period that begins with the birth of Islam in the seventh century and ends with the fall of the Ottoman Empire in the last century. Much of the work on display is from mosques and can broadly be defined as devotional. The most striking exhibit is the world's oldest dated carpet, the remarkably unfaded Ardabil carpet, made in Iran in 1539. It is viewed through a high tech glass case and light box suspended from the ceiling that is worth going to see itself. The Buddhist Sculpture Gallery displays highlights from the collection, ranging from portable gilded Buddhas to monumental temple sculptures. The Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Galleries show highlights from the Gilbert Collection of gold and silverware and micromosaics. The Ceramics Galleries tells the story of world ceramics from the earliest Chinese pottery to contemporary craft, with galleries dedicated to architectural ceramics and twentieth-century collections. The Medieval and Renaissance Galleries present the collections in continuous displays that tell the story of European art and design from the fall of the Roman Empire to the end of the Renaissance.
Museum of London
The history of London, from prehistoric times to the present is told in the Museum of London through reconstructed interiors and street scenes, alongside displays of original artefacts found during the museum's archaeological digs. Check the website before your visit as a packed programme of temporary exhibitions, talks, walks and children's events is central to the life of the Museum of London.
The O2
Since The O2 opened in 2007, transforming the endlessly floundering Millennium Dome in Greenwich into a multi-entertainment centre, it's relied on the pulling power of one giant superstar after the next. Barbara Streisand, Prince, Tina Turner and Bon Jovi have all pitched up to wring whopping sums of money out of their equally ageing fans, while guaranteed crowd-pullers such as Kings Of Leon and Kanye West are enlisted to pack the house with those too late on the bandwagon to have caught them in the far more appealing Brixton Academy. Still, The O2's sprawling 20,000 seat arena isn't the only thing to recommend it. The smaller, less attention-grabbing Indigo2 is a good place to catch soulful crooners such as Estelle and Akon, while the centre also houses an 11-screen Vue cinema, the British Music Experience and space for temporary exhibitions such as Dr Gunther von Hagens's 'Body Worlds'. As the North Greenwich Arena, it will play a major role in London 2012 hosting Artistic Gymnastics, Trampoline, Basketball and Wheelchair Basketball. A cable car – a section of which will link The O2 with ExCeL – is on target for a summer 2012 opening.
Southbank Centre
This riverside titan of arts and entertainment has morphed and expanded in the past few years securing its position as one of the most attractive cultural hotspots in London, helped by its accessible location and proximity to the National Theatre and Tate Modern. The Southbank Centre caters for the widest spectrum of people and interests, peddling visual art, music, literature events and performance in its several venues – the Royal Festival Hall, The Hayward Gallery, Queen Elizabeth Hall (including the Purcell Room) and the Saison Poetry Library. Recently it has become a go-to destination for foodies too. Skylon, a swanky British-themed restaurant within RFH, caters for those with a bit of cash, while a range of spanking new chain restaurants (Wagamama, Strada, Ping Pong) jostle for attention alongside the pie-touting Canteen.
British Library
The John Ritblat Gallery houses some of the most famous written and printed items in the world: the Lindisfarne Gospels, Shakespeare's first Folio, Handel's Messiah, the Gutenberg Bible, drafts of the Magna Carta and the Beatles' manuscripts. The Workshop of Words, Sound and Images is a hands-on gallery that traces the story of book production from the earliest written documents through medieval manuscripts and printing to modern industrial processing and the digital revolution. Two CD jukeboxes in the entrance hall enable visitors to listen on headphones to a selection of items from the library's sound archive, including extracts from Nelson Mandela's 'Rivonia' trial speech in 1964, which led to his imprisonment for 27 years.

Failed after several uses12/16/2011
The item worked a couple of times for my HTC Sensation. But after three or four times using it, the picture keeps cutting out from the monitor (and my TV) and the sound no longer transfers. Even worse, the seller tells me I am out of luck because the 30 day warranty is up. So I guess that is about how long it should work, 30 days, and then you have to get another one. Total rip off.

46 year old woman | Livermore, CA, USA | Seeking men 43-51 within 30 miles
Active within 24 hours
Country girl at heart with a city girl attitude
I'm a mother of 3 & grandmother of 1. My oldest goes to college out of state, my middle is in the military, & my youngest lives with me part-time. My home is in Livermore, but I spend a lot of time in Castro Valley where I work and my daughter goes to school. I've worked for the same employer since I was 18 and I'm doing everything I can to retire at 55. After that I'd like to move out of CA and travel. Hopefully someone out there wants the same. A few tidbits about me: I'm a natural blonde but go red or brunette when I get the urge, as my finances allow I donate to charity, am a universal blood donor, have tattoo's, speed while driving my gas guzzling SUV, don't like seafood, trying to develop a taste for wine, and never played golf. Oh yeah, no arrest record either. I am shy, but if the chemistry is right, I'll open up quickly. I'm looking for someone who enjoys me and my company as much as I enjoy him. Staying in is great, but not all the time, lets get out and do something! Hopefully you like to hike or run. I'm trying to get my exercise outside instead of just in a gym. Honesty, loyalty, and respect are very important to me and should be to you too. The ability to communicate is a must, without it no relationship is possible. I appreciate a romantic, chivalrous man that isn't afraid to show some PDA and love a politically incorrect and sarcastic sense of humor. Physical chemistry is a must and although I can't define what attracts me, I know it when I see it! Piercing eyes and a passionate kiss, that weakens my knees, will get me every time... Even though I'm not photogenic, I know the importance of having facial pics posted. So as I have done, you should also. I think I'm pretty simple, not high maintenance and not looking for complex. Treat me as you'd like to be treated and we should be a match. I'm not perfect and I'm not looking for perfect, just looking for someone with a good personality and heart who is perfect in my eyes:) P.S. Age is important to me, so please respect my age range. While it may fluctuate slightly, if you're closer in age to my father (65) or oldest kid (22), I will not be interested. If you're still healing the past, emotionally unavailable, or only looking for a physical connection, please keep looking, I'm not for you.
Alumni connections , Camping , Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Shopping/Antiques , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports
Aerobics, Baseball, Bowling, Running, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
Krayons in Castro Valley, Simply Fondue or anywhere in downtown Livermore, dive or sports bars. My travel is usually kid oriented destinations like Disneyland etc, but I also enjoy an adult haven like LV.
Any activity with my daughter, joking with my sons, Candy Crush, spending time w/ friends, laughing w/ my coworkers, mani/pedi time, my IPod, reality TV, comedy, chocolate, Lemondrops, LA Pinata, roller coasters, Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
Hike at Lake Chabot, see a new movie or watch an old one at home, indoor go kart racing, bowling, visit a local bar, cheer on the Giants or A's, listen to local bands, catch a comedy show, and dream of retirement.
"No Angel" and online gossip.

You could be a little more subtle, pisomojado101. That, and maybe some other people in the world like this music, and you happen to just not enjoy it. While I'm sure the band appreciates opinions, I don't think that they appreciate insults.
Points for honesty, though, pisomojado101, however brutal it may be.
I think they have a very interesting sound, and I give a thumbs up.
I'm afraid I may have started a flame war; ryan.gilligan, I'm sorry
Mr. Clean Magic Erasers will get off whatever doesn't come off when you peel them off.
They take everything off.
Nice rig.
Are those KRK moniters?

Yeah. They look like V4 or 6s to me
Hey, isn't that a Mackie Big Knob above the keyboard? I've thought about getting one of those... which features do you use on it?
thanks for all the comments everyone... first off, the boogie hustlers are 8 of the most talented musicians i know, and the new album recorded with that setup is gonna be sick. Yes, those are KRK's and they sound great. those are the rp8's. and yeah, thats the big knob. it's really handy for switching between sources, and having two headphone outs is nice. sometimes I have a second set of monitors, so its easy to switch between the two. for $200 it is awesome

Wall Street Bonus Tax Should Be Considered, Liu Says
April 8 (Bloomberg) -- New York City and state officials should consider higher taxes on Wall Street bonuses in the face of deficits and shrinking revenue, Comptroller John Liu said.
Governor David Paterson and Mayor Michael Bloomberg were wrong to rule out tax increases on bonuses to employees of banks and financial companies that received federal bailout funds, Liu said at a Manhattan breakfast sponsored by Crain's New York Business.
"We're not at a point in time where it's prudent to exclude any options," Liu said, citing Paterson's prediction of a $9 billion deficit for the state and Bloomberg's $4 billion projected city budget gap.
Wall Street bonuses jumped 17 percent to $20.3 billion in 2009 from a year earlier, based on personal income-tax collections, as the securities industry rebounded from the worst financial crisis since the 1930s, New York State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli said in February.
In December, the U.K. government introduced a one-time 50 percent levy on discretionary bank bonuses of more than 25,000 pounds ($37,500) to encourage banks to build up their capital following a taxpayer bailout. The U.K. Treasury, which initially said the tax would raise 550 million pounds, now estimates it may net as much as 2 billion pounds, according to a government official who declined to be identified.
Taxing Bonuses
While taxing bonuses may prompt some employers to leave New York City, "so would decimating the police force by a quarter or 20 percent, or even 10 percent, which will make the city less livable," said Liu, 43, a Democrat who took office in January. "We need to find a balance."
Paterson, 55, has likened Wall Street's value to New York to the auto industry's importance to Detroit, or the wine industry to California's Napa Valley. The financial industry accounted for about 20 percent of New York state's revenue in 2007, he has said.
"The whole industry is now more electronic and the geographic location is no longer important," Paterson said in an April 7 interview on WNYC radio, when asked about taxing bonuses. "If you want Wall Street to become a street in New Jersey or Greenwich, that's the fastest way to get those companies to move."
Bloomberg, 68, expressed a similar view today during a Manhattan lunch with corporate executives.
'Disaster' for City
Increased taxes on Wall Street firms and executive compensation "would be a disaster for this city," he said. "Our personal-income taxes for New York City are roughly $7 billion a year and 100 people pay 10 percent of it. You start driving some of those people out and they take jobs with them.
"Unfortunately a little banker-bashing is just too inviting for some members of Congress to pass up," the mayor said earlier in his prepared remarks to the group. "That's why they're proposing excessive and even retroactive taxes on financial institutions."
Liu, who oversees the city's five pension funds, which totaled $98 billion in January, also said the mayor's revenue projections for next year are too optimistic.
"My office estimates that tax revenues will fall far short of city projections starting next year due to a weaker recovery," Liu said. "Our aid payments from the state are in jeopardy, and we're still not budgeting for overtime costs."
Traders and headhunters reacted to Liu's comments with derision.
Tax Coffers
"This is a way to make sure tax coffers won't get filled because you will drive away business," said Michael Holland, who oversees more than $4 billion as chairman of New York investment firm Holland & Co. "It's a short-sighted measure that will harm the state and the city's tax revenues."
Jeanne Branthover, head of the financial-services practice at Boyden Global Executive Search in New York, said companies would find ways to package bonuses to help employees make more money to exempt them from ordinary income taxes.
"They will try to package compensation to get around it by, for example, deferring payment, or moving away," she said.
The mayor is founder and majority owner of Bloomberg News parent Bloomberg LP.

Beauty and the Brain: Amen Clinics Research and Weight Loss Director, the Dynamic and Insightful Kristen Willeumier, Ph.D., Back With the Low Down on Improving Our Brains While Benefiting Our Looks!
We live in a looks obsessed society. Beauty is a multibillion dollar industry. Images, be they online, on television, in the movies or in magazines, fill our minds with visions of physical excellence seemingly beyond our grasp. And while looks garner a huge share of our attention, our brains – repositories of imagination, intellect and emotion – hardly get any attention at all.
There are, however, people dedicated to studying the brain and helping us improve brain function. One of those individuals is Kristen Willeumier, Ph.D., Research and Weight Loss Director at the renowned Amen Clinics in Southern California. I have had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Willeumieur on a number of occasions, on CYInterview, along with my colleague Chris Yandek.
Dr. Willeumieur is a neuroscientist who is able to take seemingly complicated concepts of brain chemistry and brain function and make them clear and understandable. That said, we thought we would pose to her some questions about improving the function of our brains while working at improving our looks.

Course overview
The Bachelor of Entertainment Production is a three year dedicated degree designed to provide students with the academic and professional skills necessary for employment in the field of entertainment production. The course bridges the existing gap between the traditional media-specific degrees that universities have long provided (in television and film production, as well as curatorial studies) and the exponentially expanding fields of new media and popular entertainment industries.
Fees and charges
Equivalent Full Time Student Load (EFTSL)
EFTSL is the standard annual full time load. Eight credit points is the standard full time load for one year of study.
Commonwealth supported place (CSP)
A Commonwealth supported place is one for which the university receives some government funding. As such, students enrolled in these places are required to contribute only part of the cost of their course. To be eligible for a Commonwealth supported place you must be an Australian citizen, or a New Zealand citizen or holder of a permanent visa who will be residing in Australia for the duration of your unit/s of study.
* The "indicative annual course fee" cited has been provided as a guide only. It has been calculated on the basis of a typical enrolment of a student undertaking the course in 2015, and reflects the cost involved in undertaking a full-time quota of units within the specified discipline.
The actual fees charged by Deakin University will depend upon the discipline from which each individual unit is chosen, and may vary from the indicative course fee cited, particularly if units are chosen from a number of disciplines. The cost of each unit offered in 2015 can be viewed from the Unit Search.
Please note that the fees per unit/credit point may increase annually due to rises in the cost of course delivery and service.
Deakin assumes no responsibility for persons relying on "indicative course fees" to calculate the total future cost of their course.
Career opportunities
As a graduate of the Bachelor of Entertainment Production you will be trained with industry- ready skills in producing entertainment and programming cultural events. Some of the graduates will also go into free-lance or own-business work with skills that will allow them to successfully adapt to a range of national and international work environments. It will achieve this through learning experiences that link critical, industrial, and creative processes to professional education outcomes.

Mizzou Baseball Head Coach Tim Jamieson has been named the manager of the 2011 Collegiate National Team, as announced by USA Baseball on Thursday. He will be joined by pitching coach Rob Walton (Oral Roberts) and assistant coaches Dave Van Horn (Arkansas) and Scott Stricklin (Kent State).
Jamieson and Walton made their Team USA debuts together on the 2005 Collegiate National Team coaching staff, serving as an assistant coach and the pitching coach, respectively, for manager Steve Smith of Baylor. Van Horn and Stricklin will both be wearing the red, white and blue for the first time.
"We are thrilled to announce Tim Jamieson as our 2011 manager," said Eric Campbell, USA Baseball General Manager of National Teams. "His experience from 2005 -- coaching players like David Price, Matt Wieters and Matt LaPorta -- will serve him well, and teaming him with Dave Van Horn, Scott Stricklin and Rob Walton will provide our athletes with a unique opportunity to learn from some of the best college coaches in the game. Once again, the college coaching community has rallied around the Collegiate National Team program."
Jamieson will enter his 17th season as the head coach of the Missouri Tigers in 2011. He is the second-winningest coach in Mizzou baseball history and will begin the 2011 campaign with a career record of 544-382-2. In 2009, Jamieson passed legendary head coach John "Hi" Simmons on the university's all-time win list and trails only Gene McArtor's 733 victories.
"This is a tremendous honor," Jamieson said. "It has always been one of my career goals to be the head coach for Team USA. I am excited for the opportunity and look forward working with a great coaching staff, along with all the people associated with USA Baseball."
The Tigers have recorded at least 30 wins in 13 of the last 15 seasons and won at least 35 games in seven-consecutive years between 2003-2009, advancing to the NCAA Tournament in each of those seven years. Mizzou has played in eight NCAA Regionals under Jamieson.
While with the 2005 Collegiate Team, Jamieson helped lead Team USA to a 16-4 record, which included games played in Japan and Taiwan. He was accompanied that summer by Missouri players Max Scherzer and Hunter Mense, the first Collegiate National Team representatives for MU since 1991.
The Collegiate National Team is coming off a 16-3 2010 season which ended in a heart-breaking loss in the gold medal final of the FISU World University Championships in Japan. The U.S. lost 4-3 in extra innings to a Cuban team featuring several players from its top-level National Team. The 2011 schedule is highlighted by five games against Japan, marking the 38th time the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team has met the Japan Collegiate All-Stars in an international friendship series. The complete 2011 schedule has yet to be announced.
