FOOTBALL; Ruling in Favor of Clarett Could Open a Huge Hole Into the N.F.L. Draft
By JERE LONGMAN
Published: February 6, 2004
Football may come to resemble basketball, with underclassmen leaving school earlier or attempting to jump from high school to the National Football League, if Maurice Clarett's successful challenge to the league's eligibility requirement is upheld, coaches, administrators and other experts said yesterday.
Judge Shira A. Scheindlin of the United States District Court in Manhattan ruled yesterday that the N.F.L.'s refusal to admit players until three years beyond high school violates antitrust laws and that Clarett should be made eligible for the league draft.
The N.F.L. said it will appeal the decision, but if that appeal fails, coaches and administrators said they had no doubt that a number of players would join Clarett in challenging the draft rules.
On one hand, younger players would find opportunities for employment.
On the other hand, greater risks would be created for injury in a professional sport that requires physical maturity, for further devaluing education and for diluting talent both at the college and professional levels, experts said.
Greg Toal, who coached Don Bosco Prep of Ramsey, N.J., to a 23-0 record the past two seasons, said he was certain that some N.F.L. team would select a high school senior, likely a running back, a position that relies on vision and instinct as much as technical skill.
''I think it's a fair ruling,'' Toal said. ''If someone has the ability to play in the N.F.L. and doesn't want to be in college, they shouldn't be there.''
The National Collegiate Athletic Association expressed concern that graduation rates would decrease further if all underclassmen were able to enter the N.F.L. draft. The graduation rate for Division I football players is 54 percent, two percentage points below that of the overall male student population, said Wally Renfro, senior adviser to the N.C.A.A.'s president, Myles Brand.
''From an educational standpoint, we are disappointed with this decision,'' Renfro said. ''This opens the door for more student-athletes to leave early without a degree than ever before.''
Bruce Svare, director of the National Institute for Sports Reform, said he saw positives and negatives in yesterday's court ruling.
''I see no problem with Clarett and others skilled enough to be able to earn a buck,'' said Svare, who is a professor of psychology at SUNY-Albany.
College freshmen and sophomores who only want to play football will not have to feign an interest in education, Svare said, thus reducing some hypocrisy in big-time college football.
But less than 2 percent of college football players make it in the N.F.L., according to the N.C.A.A. And, unlike the National Basketball Association, the N.F.L. generally does not offer guaranteed contracts. Young athletes who fail to make the N.F.L. will be left in a kind of athletic purgatory, Svare said, without a degree or a chance to earn significant money in a developmental league.
''What I worry about most is the message that increasingly is being sent to younger kids, especially African-Americans, that this is the route to the promised land,'' Svare said. ''I think that pressure for football players is going to be ratcheted up even more. And those kids who are good athletes are going to view getting ahead by way of education even less so.''
By the count of Nick Saban, coach of the co-national champion Louisiana State, 35 underclassmen were selected in the N.F.L. draft last year, 12 in the first two rounds.
''I don't think you can keep someone from making a living by law,'' Saban said of yesterday's ruling. But, he noted, football is a game that requires tremendous physical development, and players get dramatically stronger between ages 18 and 23.
''My big concern is that a lot more guys with less maturity and less development are going to be put in a position of making a decision of whether they should go for the draft,'' Saban said.
This would be potentially dangerous for younger athletes who would be competing against players five or 10 years older in the N.F.L., said Dick Beck, coach of North Penn High in Landsdale, Pa., the Pennsylvania Class AAAA state football champion.
Ken Hatfield, coach at Rice University and president of the American Football Coaches Association, said he also feared that agents would begin to entice players at a younger age, playing havoc with rules regarding amateurism.
''All you are asking for is more agents to start marketing everybody for the almighty dollar,'' Hatfield said. ''We have a hard enough time controlling our boosters. You've got no control over agents and unscrupulous people who say, 'I'll take care of you and you'll go to the NFL.' ''
Only hours after the Clarett decision, the N.F.L. declared Larry Fitzgerald, a sophomore receiver at Pittsburgh, eligible for the draft because he had been out of high school for three years. But no other players petitioned the league to join Clarett.
Mike Williams, a star sophomore receiver at the co-national champion Southern California, said in a statement: ''Who knows, maybe it will open the door for others who think they can succeed. But I always thought the rule was fine the way it was.''
Pete Carroll, the U.S.C. coach and former N.F.L. head coach, said he did not think relaxed draft rules would have a drastic impact on college football. ''Certain guys can handle it better than others, but the transition into the N.F.L. is not as easy as they might think,'' Carroll said in a statement. ''It's hard enough when you're 22 or 23, let alone 18 or 19. They don't know what it's like in the N.F.L. from an emotional and social and cultural standpoint.''
Others wonder whether younger players will increasingly be embraced by the N.F.L. as a valuable source of cheap labor for salary-cap purposes. The risk is that college and professional football could have a drop in the caliber of play, as many believe has occurred in basketball.
''I can't imagine this wouldn't increase the number of college players who leave early, and set the N.F.L. into a position where the N.F.L. has found itself,'' said Richard Lapchick, chairman of the DeVos sports business management program at the University of Central Florida. ''The earlier they go, the more it dilutes the talent because players are not well enough developed. In football, it's even more exaggerated.''

WVU Shell Building
Home to one of the finest indoor facilities on the east coast, the West Virginia University track and field team takes shelter in the winter months in the WVU Shell Building. Conveniently located beside the WVU Coliseum, the Shell Building houses the indoor track facility which features a top notch track as well as adequate room for field events.
Athletic training and strength and conditioning facilities are also located in the Shell Building, giving the Mountaineers the perfect place for training and competition purposes. Each season the Mountaineers hold events such as the WVU Holiday Classic, the WVU Invitational and the WVU State Farm Games, all featuring teams from across the state and the east coast.
Just outside the doors of the WVU Shell Building is the outdoor track facility. Home to the Mountaineers when the weather permits, the WVU Track is lucky enough to have two top-notch facilities located side-by-side.
"We are very fortunate to have that indoor track. I am a believer that you should be outside when you can be outside training in fresh air. But to be able to go in there on a sub-freezing day in adverse weather conditions is great. It is a luxury to have it," said Coach Sean Cleary.
Directions To WVU Athletic Complex
From Pittsburgh, Pa.
By car: From Pittsburgh take I-79 S toward Washington, Pa. Merge onto I-79 S via EXIT 21 toward Morgantown crossing into West Virginia. Take EXIT 155 toward West Virginia University WV-7. Turn left onto CR-19/24 N/Chaplin Hill Road. CR-19/24 N/Chaplin Hill Road becomes US-19/WV-7/Jerry West Blvd./Monongahela Blvd. Continue across the Star City Bridge and through one traffic light. The WVU athletic complex is located on the right at the top of the hill and the WVU Shell Building is directly behind the WVU Coliseum, West Virginia University's basketball arena.
From Washington, D.C.
By car: From Washington, D.C. take I-270 N toward Frederick, Md. Merge onto I-70 W via EXIT 32 toward Hagerstown, Md. Merge onto I-68 W via EXIT 1A on the left toward Cumberland, Md., crossing into West Virginia. Take EXIT 7 toward WV-705/Airport/Pierpont Road. Follow signs to Stadium. At the second traffic light off the interstate, turn left and travel up Easton Hill. Travel through two more traffic lights and turn right on Route 705 and remain on 705 until it becomes Chestnut Ridge Road (two more lights). Remain on 705, turning left at the second light, until 705 intersects US-19/WV-7/Jerry West Blvd./Monongahela Blvd. The WVU athletic complex, including the WVU Shell Building, is located on the right.

According to ABC News, the FBI is currently investigating Paula Broadwell for possessing classified information in her home and on her computer:
A source familiar with the case also told ABC News that Broadwell admitted to the FBI she took documents from secure government buildings. The government demanded that they all be given back, and when federal agents descended on her North Carolina home on Monday night it was a pre-arranged meeting.
Prosecutors are now determining whether to charge Broadwell with a crime, and this morning the FBI and military are pouring over the material. The 40-year-old author, who wrote the biography on Gen. Petraeus "All In," is cooperating and the case, which is complicated by the fact that as an intelligence officer in the U.S. Military Reserve she had security clearance to review the documents.
The FBI found classified material on a computer voluntarily handed over by Broadwell earlier in the investigation. Prosecutors will now have to determine how important the classified material is before making a final decision. Authorities could decide to seek disciplinary action against her rather than pursue charges.
I agree with Max about the government's tendency to overclassify. For all we know, the information Broadwell had could have been completely mundane. There are conflicting stories about whether she had a security clearance, but given her military and intelligence background, it's seems likely she did. In that case, she would have been allowed access to classified information on her own, regardless of her relationship with Petraeus.
Without knowing more details, it's impossible to say if the FBI investigation is proper and necessary. But it is interesting that it's being taken up again now, especially if the AP's timeline is accurate:
Late Summer 2012— Attorney General Eric Holder is notified. By this time, the FBI has long since concluded there was no national security breach, but continues investigating whether Petraeus had any role in the harassing emails sent to Kelley.
If the FBI already determined there was no security breach over the summer, why rehash this again now? Were they initially mistaken, and has something new been discovered? It's one thing if there is truly a national security concern, but I'm curious as to why a reportedly "concluded" issue has been reopened.

On 08-06-14 El Paso County Sheriff's Office Detectives arrested 20 year old Gerardo Marmolejo for tattooing a minor. The parents of the minor reported the incident to deputies when they discovered that their 16 year old daughter had gotten a tattoo without their permission. The minor had gone to Marmolejo's home and had gotten the tattoo in a make shift tattoo studio. During the investigation, Detectives learned that Marmolejo did not have a license to operate a tattoo shop. A search warrant was executed on Marmolejo's home where tattoo paraphernalia was recovered.

If you're looking to upgrade your UTV riding gear from the ratty old t-shirt at the bottom of your dresser drawer, look no further than the UTV jerseys on this page. Designed for the comfort levels demanded by riders without undesirable restrictiveness, they're an ideal part of your personal riding equipment. And if you really want something that truly makes a difference while you're out on the trail, look for an option that includes ventilation. You can even utilize the filters on the left-side of this page to identify only those jerseys that are vented, making it easy to narrow your search down to the options that include enhanced airflow.
Finding something that is comfortable is the primary requirement of anyone looking for better gear. But that doesn't mean you have to overlook an important secondary aspect: appearance. These UTV jerseys have a distinctive look that says powersports all over them. We've got hundreds of options, with a variety of styles, colors, patterns and logos.

Last week, Mike Blumenthal blogged about hurdles being put in his way by a hotel asking for customer reviews. I'm finding myself in a similar situation with a popular moving/storage company called PODS and I think the issues I'm facing with them are worth noting.
I heard about PODS from my sister (good old word of mouth marketing). They offer an interesting service. They deliver a storage container to your house, you fill it up, and they come take it away and drive it to your new home or a storage unit when you're ready. I decided I wanted to learn more about how this worked and I had some specific questions I wanted answers to.
Clearly, care has gone into the Pods site. They've got videos, testimonials and all those kinds of confidence-building elements I like to see.
But, try as I might, I could not find any reference to how large the containers are. Bigger than a bread box? As big as a moving van? Bigger? My apologies to PODS if this information is on there somewhere, but after a good 15 minutes on the site, I still couldn't find it.
So, I decided I'd fill out their form to get a quick quote on how much it would cost to move house from Point A to Point B. I seldom fill out forms…I don't like giving out my email address because of the risk of being put on mailing lists…but I did want to get a sense of costs, so I made the choice to enter my data this time around. I liked the fact that the form had a zipcode lookup in case I didn't know what it would be for my hypothetical new address. Lots of people who are moving likely don't know their future zipcode until they settle in. So, I liked that part of the process.
What I did not like was what happened when I'd filled in all the blanks and hit enter. I was taken to a screen informing me that I needed to call PODS to get the quote that the form had promised me.
A little red flag rose up in my mind at that moment. I felt as though I'd just given away my personal information for the good of someone's database…not for my own benefit. This was a very poor trust signal. But, having made this much of a commitment to learn about PODS, I found their number and called them.
Unfortunately, there was no one there to answer my call. This was in the evening, to be sure, but my feelings of trust eroded away a degree more realizing they don't have 24 hour phone service. I expect this from a national company that is dealing with something as important as customers' personal belongings. Imagine your family sitting on the steps of your new home in Lincoln, Nebraska at midnight on moving day, waiting for your POD to arrive with all of your stuff in it and it never shows up. You try to phone PODS to find out where it is, but there is no one there to take you call. That's not a situation I'd want to be in, but it was the one I imagined once I understood there was no phone service.
However, it was then that I noticed they offer a Live Chat function on their website.
"Okay," I said."Maybe the Live Chat operator won't be able to give me a quote for my hypothetical move, but they should at least be able to tell me how big the containers are."
No such luck, unfortunately. The Live Chat was also unavailable.
So, here I am left having filled out PODS' form, made a call, tried to speak with a Live Chat tech, and I am none the wiser as to how much PODS costs and whether their containers will fit in my narrow, country driveway.
My interest in this was so keen, I tried calling a bit earlier in the evening the next day and tried accessing the Live Chat again. I got the same response – nobody at home.
I don't conduct personal business during the day. That's work time. Most people are in the same boat. If, for some reason, PODS can't staff a 24 hour phone line or Live Chat, they should at least make their form return a quote instead of using it for some other, undisclosed purpose. As it is, the form fails to meet my expectations as a user. It lacks transparency and leads to disappointment. I bet I'm not the only customer that has been turned away by this usability/functional issue.
So, where does that leave me? I'm still interested in the PODS service. A look at the SERPs shows me that they have competitors. PODS ought to know that they are making potential customers look elsewhere in hopes of finding a quote and basic information about these mobile containers. A few changes to their system could work some serious wonders for their bottom line.

Greetings from inside the SEOigloo!
I ask pardon for the sarcasm contained in the following post, but I feel the need to let out a little roar. Chances are, you've heard of the Vermont Country Store, that popular old-timey business that sells everything from Habitant Pea Soup to retro candy to alarming implements designed for trimming one's nose hair. They've positioned themselves as America's best-known general store, and they've won me as a repeat customer because they are literally the last place I can find in the wide world selling cotton knee highs, but – OH MY STARS – they are driving me bananas with their marketing efforts.
Over the past six weeks, I have received not one, not two, but FIVE catalogs from these folks. And, these are not five different catalogs, though each one has a different cover. The interior contents are about 98% identical, across the board. Perhaps each one has a couple of new items, such as their New Sweet Potato Casserole (friends and family will never know you just opened a can), but overall, the items in all the catalogs are identical. Having been the bewildered recipient of, perhaps, ten catalogs this year from this company, I am left wondering what their marketers are telling them.
Do they think I immediately threw out catalog #6, so they'd better send me #7 three days later? Do they think I'm careless, and have misplaced the last four catalogs that are sitting in a stack on my windowsill for Fall, Hallowe'en, Thanksgiving, All Saints Day, National Telephone Repairman's Day, or whatever else it is that these catalogs are meant to pertain to? Last week, because I ordered those knee highs I mentioned, my mailbox contained not only the package of socks with catalog included, but also a second catalog, sitting right on top!
Sure, it's important to remind your customers that you exist and that you've got inventory. But annoying your clientele is hardly what I'd call a clever marketing plan. I think it's the unwarranted republication of the same contents with different, cheery covers that bugs me the most about what The Vermont Country store is doing. The moment anyone gets past the cover art, they will be met with those same tablecloths, that same electric typewriter, that same picture of the woman holding all those pieces of toast. I just saw all of these offers 3 days ago. My head still works pretty good, ya know…I haven't forgotten the products. SEOs can easily relate to my sentiments here when I say that this is a little bit like seeing those Meta Keywords discussions crop up once a week on your favorite forums. Do you dive right in, eager to discuss, or do you pass right over those threads, yawning, "old hat."
The Vermont Country Store's catalog marketing plan is making me think of their inventory as old hat. The first time I flipped through their publication, I was entertained and interested by all the queer and quaint little goodies they stock – 3 years and dozens of catalogs later, I feel bored.
Add to this that they seem to be unconcerned about the number of trees they must be cutting down to produce THIS MANY catalogs and there arises a potential to alienate customers who have come to feel duped by the changing cover art ploy, bored by repetition, and unimpressed by anything resembling environmental sensitivity in this company's policies.
I'm not looking at their bottom line, of course, trying to figure out how to sell more bottles of Bay Rum Aftershave (refreshing and invigorating), yet I can't help but wonder if the Vermont Country Store shouldn't start making more use of the fact that they've got a website. Sure, there may still be some Internet-deprived folks living up in the mountains, trotting out to the mailbox every day with fingers crossed that they'll get yet another print catalog, but times, they are a-changing. To the folks at Vermont Country Store: would you guys really go belly-up if you cut down to a 4-season plan, and focused more on keeping your website updated with those couple of new products you add a year? How about going the SM route and developing profiles on Facebook and such as my friendly general store owner? Offer old-time wisdom about dealing with bunions, unsightly toenails, sour milk or blocked storm drains? Sell-sell-sell is getting tiresome.
The thing is…I still like this company's inventory. I'd be happy to hear from them once in awhile. If they sent me a catalog each season, I'd likely look through it with pleasure. But now, my only option is to pick up the phone and cut ties with these folks altogether, because I've determined I have enough advertising from them sitting on my windowsill to last a lifetime. I tried giving them a call today, but no one answered. No doubt, they are all in the shipping department, feverishly stapling new covers onto last week's catalogs, getting ready to send me another fine surprise.

Greetings from inside the SEOigloo!
A couple of months ago, I happened to notice an announcement on Barry Schwartz's company site, Rusty Brick, that they had just redesigned the website for the well-known furniture company, Jennifer Convertibles. Since I spent my last post grinding my teeth over horrific SEO company offers in San Francisco, I thought it would be a nice change of topic to applaud the extremely classy job that a trusted New York firm did on designing a website.

Greetings from inside the SEOigloo!
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote a blog post entitled Cascadian Farm – Web Business Review. In that review I expressed my concern about the holes Cascadian Farm puts in its frozen foods packages to let the air out in processing. To me it doesn't seem like it would require the mind of Albert Einstein to realize that if stuff can come out of a perforation, stuff can also get into one. E.coli bacteria was only one of the possible concerns I listed in my letter to the Cascadian Food corporation, which they did not chose to respond to.
And now we've got the E. coli spinach catastrophe on our hands. As of today, the tragic death count from may have moved up to 2 people, and over 130 people across the U.S. have been made violently ill. Is Cascadian Farm paying attention to this? Continue Reading »

2 Claims, 6 Drawing Figures SHEET 2 BF 2 INVENTOR.
Ewe. M
PHOTOELECTRIC SCANNING DEVICE USING DIFFUSE AND SPECULAR REFLECTION This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 148,060 filed May 28, 1971, now abandoned.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION is described. The scanning function was concerned solely with reading lines to provide pulses which were fed into a predetermined counter. The interrogation at the completion of the scanning was internal and was accomplished by a reset within a predetermined time interval. At that time it was known that this interrogation function could also have been accomplished externally by separately scanning a path which containedno lines to provide holding while counts were being accumulated. In scanning a single row of code lines this generally required two light sources. It also was wasteful as, for the same reliability, it required a widened strip to provide the two scanning paths one with code lines, the other clear. This external method did have the advantage that machines could be jogged or stopped on code lines without triggering a reset until a complete reading had been made.
My present invention makes it possible to combine the line reading function with the external control function in a single scanning path with a single light source. This is made possible because of the use of specular reflection" and diffuse reflection" in my scanning device. As discussed in Kents Mechanical Engineers Handbook 12th Edition, page 27-68, Reflection may be of several types, the most common of which are specular (regular), diffuse, spread, and mixed. We are concerned here with specular reflection and diffuse reflection. In specular reflection the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection; while in diffuse reflection the maximum purity is perpendicular to the surface.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the invention is to provide an improved photoelectric scanning device for automatically scanning coded objects by the use of specular reflection and diffuse reflection with a single source of light. 8
A further object of the invention is to provide such a scanning device that is simple, practical and economical in construction, and is reliable in operation.
Other and further objects will be obvious upon an understanding of the illustrative embodiment about to be described, or will be indicated in the appended claims and various advantages not referred to herein will occur to one skilled in the art upon employment of the invention in practice.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS A preferred embodiment of the invention has been chosen for purposes of illustration and description and is shown in the accompanying drawings, forming a part of the specification, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a schematic view of apparatus embodying the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the element used for sensing specular reflection.
FIG. 3 is a typical two row line code embodying the present invention.
FIG. 4 is a typical two color line code embodying the present invention.
FIG. 5 is a sectional view of a scanner assembly hous ing the elements shown in FIG. 1.
FIG. 6- is a variation of scanner taken substantially along line 6--6 of FIG. 5 showing an arrangement with three light gathering elements.
Referring now to FIG. 1 there is shown schematically a light source such as lamp 11 in which an image 10 of the filamentin lamp 11 is focused on a scanning path by means of a lens system 12. An angle of incidence of 40 from the perpendicular has been found satisfactory. Equally satisfactory has been found an angle of 50 from the perpendicular for diffuse reflection scanning of the printed code bars by phototube '13 on the screen of which the light from image 10 is focused by lens 14.
Lucitetube 15 is set with its axis at an angle of 40 reflection of light through tube 15 to provide the holding current so long as an object 18 scanned is in position to receive specular reflection from image 10.
FIG. 2 shows in detail this scanning element for receiving specular reflection in which the solar cell 16 has the dimension 0.4 X 0.4'inch (square). The Lucite tube 15 is reduced in size from the same sizesquare of 0.4 X 0.4 inch to a 0.375 inch diameter to permit the tube to be inserted into a hole drilled in the scanner and, for maximum effect, to reach down close to the light image 10 to gather not only the light from the spot (the image from lamp 11 is typically three-thirtyseconds inch X one-thirty-second inch but also the stray light around the image. The elements of FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 are shown mounted in a single unit in FIG.
5 where bar 17 provides a guide for a passing scanned object 18 to insure that the image 10 is in focus on the code lines (not shown).
In FIG. 3 there are schematically shown a two row code with code lines 19 and 20 and two sets of scanning elements, each set' being that shown in FIG. 1 and disposed at opposite sides of a shield 21 for confining light from the lamps l1 and 11 to their respective scanning elements. Both sets of scanning elements can be mounted in a single unit in a manner similar to that disclosed in US. Pat. No. 2,872,590. i
In FIG. 4 is schematically shown a two color code utilizing the invention herein for conditions where more code combinations are needed,- being an improvement over the color code arrangement shown in U.S. Pat. No. 3,035,380. For clarity and to simplify the showing of FIG. 4 the solar cell 16 is not shown. Code lines 22 and 23 are photoelectrically distinguishable as, for ex- .ample, code line 22 being black and code line 23 being and also the black. lines 22. Thus referring to FIG. 6
the light image is seen three times, as a diifuse reflection of light by phototube 13 and 13' and as a specular reflection of light by the solar cell 16 (not shown) mounted'on the outer end of tube 15 (FIG. 6). The three resultant currents are fed into known predetermined counters and interrogate and reset control circuits. The multiple viewing of the lamp image provides increased reliability. The space-conserving single scanning path eliminates difficulties caused by misalignment of code lines due to printing or cutting misregister or to the shifting, during transport, of the object being scanned when two or more paths are required. While not essential, the lamp current may be monitored by known techniques to provide a fail safe signal in the event of filament breakage.
Elemental is a single row of code lines. When a greater number of combinations is needed, the single scanning path is used with the two color code shown in FIG. 4. If a still greater number of combinations is needed, the multiple row code shown in FIG. 3 is available with greater security in the same space resulting from the elimination of a third holding path. The dual scanner used for such a code. requires that the holding element (solar cell 16), shown in FIG. 2, operate on one of the rows though two such elements may be paralled for increased protection.
As various changes may be made in the form, construction and arrangement of the parts herein, without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention and without sacrificing any of its advantages, it is to be understood that all matters are to be interpreted as illustrative and not in any limiting sense.

a chinatown excursion
- n
- nelle
can someone reccommend a restaurant in chinatown that is:1. inexpensive2. exceptionally tasty3. msg free4. will cater to the kids, who rarely venture beyond chicken and bread, and to other family members who have various allergies and are also picky eaters???i would be deeply indebted to you for a trip to chinatown would not be complete without a trip to the dancing chicken arcade or a good, tasty meal.
Fuleen Seafood Restaurant on 11 Division Street (212) 941-6888 turned out to be a real treat when we tried it several weeks ago--after seeing it mentioned here.
Although it's called "seafood" and does specialize in fish, the menu is filled with other choices.
Unlike some of Chinatown's cavernous, crazed emporiums, Fuleen, 'tho fairly large, offers you more of a dining experience than some of the frantic places I've been to--where seeking a table and sampling a meal can be more like plunging into a rugby scrum, rather than a social occasion!
Fuleen appears to like children (lots of Chinese families seemed pretty happy.) In fact, we were the only Westerners.
I know that kids can be culinarily-impaired--but there were plenty of chicken dishes on the menu that might tempt them. And the old stand-bys of course. Kids always like THOSE!
The environment is actually almost pretty. And soothing. Pink tablecloths. Carpeting. Fuleen seems to get a more laid-back family clientele--people who want to enjoy the meal. Not eat and run.
Service was unfailingly polite and our waiter seemed pleased as punch that we were ordering one of the more exotic dishes (1000 year old eggs and preserved vegetables.) When we gave him our order, he was kind enough to try to make sure we knew what we were ordering--but did not try to discourage us. Next time, we'll try some of the other specials, too.
We were eating a very early lunch--so tried a few lunch specials. Soft, delicious scrambled eggs with shrimp (wonderfully seasoned), and a steamed chicken dish with chinese sausage and black mushrooms (excellent.) And, of course, we had the preserved egg dish with garlicky greens, which was on their special menu. An unusual clear soup with beans and veg. came with the meal. Light and delicious.
I would think that Fuleen will pay attention when you discuss allergy problems with them. They certainly took note of what WE ordered--and made sure they wrote it down correctly.
The cost of the meal was very reasonable. Our lunches were $4.95 each! And the special dish was, I think, around $10. Dinner, of course, would be more.
Best of all, Fuleen was just the kind of Chinatown excursion I always hope for--high quality ingredients, authentic Cantonese dishes on offer, along with the "tried-and-true"--and a comfortable place to sit and chat with friends and family without being treated like just another ignorant tourist clogging up the table. (I've learned to avoid the "new, hip" places, except at off-peak!)
There are several other Chinese restaurants I go to--Tindo, by the bridge,(but they are pretty small), Mandarin Court on Mott Street, Big Wong for congee and rice noodles, 69 Mott St for "roast pig," and a new place off Bayard St--that for the life of me I can't remember! But the crab in egg sauce was memorable. I tend to troll the area and take out different favorite dishes from different locations, including some of the carts.
However, for the kind of family outing you're planning, I think Fuleen might be nice. I've only been there that once, but they made a mighty good first impression.
(Gee, Chowhound is going to accuse me of advertising---but I promise I'm not. I'm just an over-enthusiastic foodie, always looking, always hoping...and always willing to "share." If anyone else has an opinion on Fuleen, I'd love to hear it just to make sure it wasn't a "one-off" illusion.)
re: Lynn
so glad you liked Fuleen - I suspect I was the original tout. Those vegetables and eggs are dynamite. Their salt baked squid, steamed fish (even the cheapest, tench, is delicious if you can deal with bones) are also particularly good,as is most everything else on the menu weve tried except for the roast duck and wintermelon soup. Just go good and early or make a reservation - its not a big restaurants and the last two times we have tried (8 or 9ish) on a Saturday night we have not gotten in.
Upstairs at Tindo could be a good place with kids - the last time we went there were two Chinese families with small children at the big tables up there- and our group of 6 occupied the only other table.
With picky children, we have had good luck at various times in Chinatown with stir fried broccoli, those great stir-fried string beans, beef chow fun or sliced beef steak and plain rice. Sometimes you just have to settle for their not eating much and enjoy your own meal. Warning, if kids are used to eating chinese takeout lo-mein, fried rice, gen. Tso's chicken or such
they might not like the renditions of these dishes found in a "real" Chinese restaurant.
I suspect you want Chinese but if this is kid driven, Vietnamese food can also be popular with kids - they like the noodles, delicious soups-beef and chicken- the finger food (grilled meats wrapped in lettuce leaves) and some of the desserts. There are lots of recommendations on the board for these but we like New Pasteur and Pho tu Do a lot. Both are formica, very casual places, not really for a leisurely meal.
not a restaurant recommendation, but if your children can handle the bones, many Cantonese restaurants have something along the lines of "crispy fried (or roasted) chicken". It often comes with a little dish of a special salt that you can dip the chicken pieces in. My kids tend to like that a lot. Noodle dishes might work, too.

Region 8-AAAA members Fort Dorchester and Beaufort will meet twice during the conference season, but they met Saturday night in the finals of the Modie Risher Classic.
If the region meetings are as exciting as the one Saturday night, fans from both schools are in for a treat.
Beaufort rallied from 12 points down in the final six minutes of regulation to win the title in overtime, 49-47.
Fort Dorchester led the game, 41-29, with 6:07 to play and appeared in complete control. However, the Patriots began to wilt under heavy double teams and pressure late in the game, and Beaufort scored the final six points of the fourth quarter to send the game into overtime, tied at 43.
Tournament most valuable player, Kendrick Colvin, scored all six of Beaufort's points in the extra period, finishing the game with 17 points.
Fort Dorchester dropped to 8-1 on the season, while the Eagles improved to 9-1.
Senior Eric Heyward led Fort Dorchester with 13 points, and was named the tournament's most outstanding player.
Beaufort led 8-5 midway through the first period before the Patriots closed the quarter on a 10-1 run to grab a 15-9 lead.
The lead extended to 20-9 early in the second quarter and Fort Dorchester maintained the edge for a 28-17 halftime lead.
The Eagles made a nice run to open the third quarter, cutting the margin to 30-23 with 4:47 remaining, but Fort Dorchester held a 36-27 lead heading into the final period.
Host Burke won the third-place game with Timberland, overcoming a 12-point third quarter deficit to win, 51-42. Freshman Sidney Robinson's 3-pointer with 1:52 left in the game put the Bulldogs on top, 43-42, and Burke never trailed again.
The Bulldogs outscored Timberland, 21-6, in the final period. Robinson finished with 14 points and was selected to the All-Tournament team.

New Delhi: Cristiano Ronaldo has recently bore the brunt of his fair share of criticism.
Following a show-stopping 2007-08 and the resulting summer speculation of a world record-breaking move to Real Madrid, the winger's reluctance to declare his intentions one way or another for weeks on end made him an unpopular figure among many a concerned Manchester United fan.
He eventually declared his desire to move to the Spanish champions, only to soon announce his intention to stay at Old Trafford, following a heart-to-heart with manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
There was no chance of the Portuguese possibly replicating last season's superhuman achievements, and indeed, his less-than-incredible start to this campaign, somewhat affected by injury, has in fact drawn criticism. This is just as much due to the player's attitude as it is his performances, with petulant pouts and negative body language leading many to believe he is already regretting his summer U-turn and attempting to pave himself a way to Madrid this summer.
The man himself is prepared to let everybody draw their own conclusions. "There's always speculation, not just about me, but about the future of players all around the world," he told MUTV. "People were speaking about me this summer but that was normal because of what I did during the season.
"What people are saying now [the recent speculation about an agreement with Real Madrid] is not true. Who says that is a liar because I am happy at the club, I want to stay here. I feel at home here. I feel very happy here."
He went on to reveal that he wasn't even nervous when coming back to play his first game for the club after that unforgettable summer. "I think the people don't forget quickly what you do for the club," he explained. "When I arrived at the stadium, to play [my first game of this season] against Villarreal, I felt a little bit of pressure. But the fans were very good and this is why I feel the Manchester United supporters are amazing.
"I love the fans because they have been brilliant with me, not just this season but every season. Like I said before, I feel at home in Manchester."
The infamous meeting with Sir Alex that proved to be the turning point in keeping the 23-year-old at the club is something he won't be forgetting in a hurry. He said, "The boss is always important for me, not just last season but every season.
"I am at this club because of him. He saw me in a few games before I played against Manchester United - people think I came here just because I played [well] against United but it's not true. He's always helped me and I said to him, 'I want to be part of this club with you. I want to win trophies with you.' He's very important in my career, Sir Alex Ferguson."

Carroll has not played this season due to a foot problem after making his loan move from Liverpool permanent over the summer.
The England international recently returned to light training and is now stepping up his recovery with Sam Allardyce's side.
McDonald said: "Andy did a training session yesterday (Sunday) which is very encouraging.
"It's early stages but is a work in progress with him. Work one day on the training pitch, massage and rehab the next day and let's see how it goes from there.
"It's a positive he is in training but it is a slow process.
"When you are out for seven months I don't think you can rush anybody back.
"Obviously, we are all desperate for him to come back and get into the team as quickly as possible but we have to be sensible and he is getting closer."
Ahead of Wednesday's trip to Craven Cottage to face fellow strugglers Fulham, McDonald confirmed that James Collins, Winston Reid and James Tomkins are all likely absentees.
He said: "It looks as though all three (Collins, Reid and Tomkins) are not going to be fit for the Fulham game.
"We will assess them ahead of the Forest game (FA Cup) but it is more likely they will be involved in the Cardiff game (January 11)."
And regarding January's transfer window, he added: "We have a few defensive problems and with the window coming up Sam (Allardyce) is working non-stop.
"We need some reinforcements to boost the players we have here so he is working behind the scenes with everyone else. His phone is going non-stop.
"We have three main centre-halves injured at the moment. We are aiming to improve and the two main places are in defence and in attack."

text: Tweet photo by turtlemom4bacon (Flickr CC) It's been a rollercoaster of a project, and the results will be far from perfect but it will be the most comprehensive list to date. –Eimear Nic Lughadha, head of science policy and co-ordination, Kew Gardens (via BBC News) A rose by any other name is still, apparently, a rose. Scientists from the UK and US are reducing the 'official' number of flowering plant species by over 600,000 to around 400,000, according to estimates. Researchers from London's Kew Gardens the Missouri Botanical Garden in the US are cooperating in a project to reclassify the plant list, which doesn't contain ferns or algae, by eliminating duplicate names for the same species. Reasons for streamlining the list include simplifying ways to access information on useful plants and reducing confusion by eliminating multiple names for the same plant. From an article in the Guardian: The project – which has taken nearly three years – was the number one request made by the 193 government members of the Convention on Biological Diversity at their meeting in 2002. There were concerns that without this work, it would be impossible to work out how many plants were under threat and how successful conservationists were in saving them.

Little Miss Modesty Avril Lavigne is giving Kanye West a run for his money. With bombast that's usually found in?the hip-hop world, Avril's telling the world how giving she is. In a recent interview with Q Magazine, she refers to Hurricane Katrina, (which devastated an entire metropolis and left thousands homeless) as "the hurricane thing [that] happened." To evidence her charitable nature, Avril filled six whole boxes of things from her closet and told her assistant to "take it to Katrina!" Let's put aside the grammatical error that would prevent her assistant from taking anything to a ruinous natural disaster and concentrate on this question — what the hell are the brave survivors of Hurricane Katrina going to do with studded belts and Manic Panic hair dye? Avril also evoked the "I'm Rubber, You're Glue" line of reasoning when she called everyone who dislikes her "losers."

Monkey in the wilds of Indonesia snaps a selfie with stolen camera and sets off legal battle between nature photographer and Wikipedia.
Slater apparently doesn't find any humour in what he considers Wikimedia, the organization behind Wikipedia, monkeying with his livelihood.He argues the photos are rightly his. It was his effort and expense that got him to the jungle on the island of Sulawesi with his expensive equipment.
He hired the guide who led him deep into the wilds, where the inquisitive monkey could grab his camera and start snapping.
He has also argued that he would hold the copyright to any images taken by an assistant. In effect, the smiling simian was his assistant that day in the jungle, he reasoned.In an interview, Slater said he has repeatedly asked Wikipedia to take the monkey photos down from Wikimedia Commons.
"They know I claim to hold not just ownership of the image but copyright too,†Slater says.
