5.0 stars 50 totalReview Lewis Rosenblum
Posted by a client
Great wise experienced knowledgable!
Thanks for all your help, would recommended to anyone! Way better than the public defender! So much better.
Posted by Diane
My daughter was going to be charged with a felony... and was in a major life crisis. I flew into California to help her and retain a lawyer. The minute I landed at the airport, I called Lew crying, overwhelmed and frightened. I was able to talk to him immediately upon landing and we met him that very day. When we met him, we knew he was the lawyer we wanted, to represent her. He is integral, trustworthy, honest, father like... caring and firm all in one. He is an excellent communicator and was always available.
We really thought that life was over as we knew it and it was a very dark time to go through. The good news for my daughter is that the D.A.'s Office decided not to file criminal charges. I believe that had everything to do with Lew's thoroughness, investigation, representation and integrity. Lew was with her every step of the way.
My daughter has her life back, she was not only facing a felony but a minimum of a year in jail. She now has a great future ahead of her and we are very grateful for Lew, for taking this case and all he did.
This is who you want in your corner!

If your juvenile son or daughter is in need of a Defense Attorney, look no further. Lewis Rosenblum is the very best.
My son was a juvenile when he got into an altercation that went very badly and resulted in serious felony assault charges being filed against him, one being a "strike" felony. I can't describe the fear and anguish my wife and I felt in this situation. Thank God a close friend of mine recommended Lew.
Many things set Lew apart from other Defense Attorneys, his decades of experience as a hugely successful Assistant District Attorney (including heading up the Juvenile Division), his impeccable skills, knowledge and attention to detail in the courtroom as well as his passion for being your advocate. Just as importantly, he truly cares about you as a person and not just as a client. He always put my wife and I at ease when our imaginations ran wild with the possible consequences our son might face for the rest of his life. Lew is a straight shooter who educates you as to the facts and challenges you are faced with and is always prompt in responding to any questions you may have. To top off all of that, from speaking to other parents who had similar experiences, I learned that Lew's fees are extremely reasonable compared to other attorneys who may or may not come close to one of his caliber.
The net result of Lew defending my son was astounding. Lew got got all of my son's charges dismissed and got his juvenile records sealed. I walked out of the courtroom dumbfounded, elated and eternally grateful to Lew.
Thank you Lew for giving my son the chance to live the good life he deserves to live.

Lew Rosenblum, ESQ, was highly recommended by our family lawyer, when we were looking for a Criminal Defense Lawyer. During the course of handling our case, we noticed him to be thorough and does not leave any stone unturned. He even has a short turnaround time on our frantic phone calls & emails and that helps simmer down our stress levels. His dedication, commitment and Belief to the Great Architect of the Universe especially on our case makes him in our opinion a Super Lawyer! We would not only recommend him to our friends and family but also to colleagues, associates and acquaintances.

2014 was the darkest moment of my life. Thanks to Mr. Lewis Rosenblum's decisiveness, promptness, great court technique, and knowledge of the law, our family was restored quickly. His compassion is a plus and rare for a high skilled lawyers like him. So if you're looking for a top quality lawyer with reasonable fees, it's Lewis Rosenblum and no one else.
Posted by a client
He is an excellent attorney. Very honest and straight forward -- got back to me within the day whenever i had questions. Follow up was always appreciated. I highly recommend Lewis.
Posted by a client
I've not previously needed nor used a criminal defense attorney , so I don't have anyone else to compare Mr. Rosenblum to. I can't imagine that there is a better choice. MR. Rosenblum was honest and informative. He is quick to respond to phone calls and emails and to answer any questions that you may have. I could not have had a better experience or outcome with my case. I hope to never have a need for a defense attorney in the future, but if I do, there is no question as whom I will hire. Great attorney.
Posted by David
I have had a great deal of difficulty composing a review for Mr. Lewis Rosenblum. Reason being, trying to find the appropriate words for the man who literally gave me my life back has not been easy. How can you put into words such emotions? I will do my best to keep this short and to the point.
My criminal defense was not by any means an easy one. I am a former law enforcement officer and the four charges I was facing were being brought against me by my own department. As my life was literally hanging in the winds, I began my search for the best trial lawyer I could find. With many recommendations from family and friends, I sat with approximately a half dozen top notch attorneys. Mr. Rosenblum, or Lew, as he prefers to be called, was one of my interviews. From the moment I met him, I just got a warm and fuzzy feeling. I think I had just about every type of personality thrown at me. Lew had such a calm, cool, demeanor about him. As former Marines, we quickly "clicked" and after much consideration and prayer, I decided to retain him as my counsel.
As the process began, Lew kept me informed concerning all aspects of the preparation for trial. With his 30 plus years of experience as a prosecutor, Lew was able to predict every action the DA made. His knowledge and relationships are truly priceless. The amount of work and preparation that went into my trial was honestly absurd. Lew handled all of it in stride and impressed more as each day passed. I never once throughout the entire process had one single doubt in my mind how hard this man was working for me.
Dedication, devotion and pure compassion from the heart is what you get with Lew. Trial began and just as before, Lew predicted everything. When I say everything, I really mean everything. I knew I was in the best of hands. My trial received a great deal of media coverage. At minimum there were two reporters in the courtroom at all times and often times up to four. Lew handled the media in a completely professional manner. The trial lasted a total of 5 weeks. There were times where Lew needed to show sensitivity and he did. There were also times where a hard nosed approach was necessary, and he did that as well. The work he performed with the witness' and opposing DA was nothing short of amazing! He is highly respected by his peers, and for very good reason. Keep in mind, I have experienced a great deal of courtroom exposure with my former career, and Lewis Rosenblum is one of the best criminal defense attorneys in the nation. He commanded the courtroom and directed the trial. As far as the results, I could not have asked, or prayed, for anything more positive. Lew accomplished getting three charges dismissed and the fourth not guilty. These kinds of results against a government agency are next to unheard of. All in a days work for Mr. Rosenblum!
I would like to finish my review on somewhat of a personal note and speak of his character. As I mentioned, I am a former Marine and law enforcement officer. I have never met anyone in my professional career or personal life with a higher standard of integrity than Lewis Rosenblum. He is a no nonsense individual and tells you exactly what you need to know. He goes after the people he needs to put pressure on and is sensitive when necessary. He has a huge heart, determined spirit and a competitive edge like you've never seen. I truly believe God brought Lew into my life for a number of different reasons, not just the victory he accomplished on my behalf in the courtroom.
I hope in my heart this review has been of some assistance in making such an important decision. The decision I made to retain Lew was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my entire life. Once you are in his hands, there will be no doubt in your mind you made the best decision either! Thank you from the bottom of my heart Lew!
Posted by a Criminal Defense client
Lew was extremely helpful in every way. Made sure I knew exactly what I was getting into and did everything to keep me informed. He helped me so much with my case and I am so glad I chose him as my lawyer. He is also very knowledgeable and not only taught me things about my case but gave me life advice as well.
Posted by Jeff
My son was questioned recently by a police investigator regarding an incident which occurred 3 years earlier. My son is very honest and admitted to everything not knowing the consequences. We were very surprised to open a letter from the District Attorney's Office stating he was being charged with a felony. My son would loose his full scholarship to college and his reputation would be ruined for life.
I asked a Deputy District Attorney friend of mine for a good lawyer and he suggested Lewis Rosenblum. I have worked with many attorneys in my line of work. Lew is a cut above the rest. Lew demonstrates integrity, honesty and is very friendly. Lew is like the neighbour you wished you had. Lew also looks for clients who share the same characteristics.
Lew worked with the prosecuting DA and they negotiated for some counseling and the case would be dismissed! My son can stay in school and not have his life ruined for the stupid mistake he made 3 years earlier.
Lew gave my son a good lecture when we left court. Lew made it very clear my son was given a second chance. I could not have asked for a better attorney. I will never say, "Last one to the finish line is a defence attorney" ever again.

The Theology Of Thomas Pastor Terry K Anderson
in Christianity
The Theology of Thomas if you know anything about Jesus then you know about Thomas the doubter. Thomas needed proof to believe that Jesus died and rose again. He had to see the proof for himself once he saw the proof only then did he believe. Jesus has blessed those who believe without proof of scarves. Thomas was a disciplewho believed when Jesus was with them in the natural but once he was crucified, died, Thomas had a problem with believing Jesus had rosed from the grave.
INTRODUCTION TO DIDYMUS THOMAS (Twin/Twin) = IS SCRIPTURE A SCRIPT?
in Religion
Didymus Thomas
The Twin Twin
"The secret words that the savior spoke to Judas Thomas which I, even I, Mathaias, wrote down, while I was walking, listening to them speak with one another.
The savior said, "Brother Thomas while you have time in the world, listen to me, and I will reveal to you the things you have pondered in your mind.
The Apostle Thomas was also called Didymus which in the Greek means Twin or Double.
KJV John 11:16 said Thomas, which is called Didymus KJV John 20:24 ..one of the twelve, called Didymus KJV John 21:2 Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus
A long-suppressed, long-forgotten form of Christianity in which Thomas was the chief apostle has come to light in recent years. In western Christendom Thomas is known chiefly as the Doubter, the close follower of Jesus who had to touch his master's wounds in order to be convinced that he had really risen from the dead.

A Conversation With John Thomas
in Christianity

John grew up in a musical family his father was singer and his mother was a choir director, John also grew up playing instruments like the saxophone and drums and was involved in the choir at his church.
Through out his school years John would always rap and sing songs to get through the day or just for fun music was always with him everywhere he would go, it was a big relaxer in his life to the point he was writing his own music, it started with freestyling over instrumentals from some of his favorite songs or finding instrumentals to make original songs to.
Around the age of 18 years old John began to build his relationship with God and did his first rap performance at his church Bethel Deliverance Tabernacle International, with another member of the youth. With that performance sparked John to begin writing songs again to give glory to God and God alone. His drive for his music is to impacted the lives of todays generation showing them that being a saved Christian is not a boring thing, making music that not only impacts but also has calm turn up feel to it. John feels if music can have such an impact on emotions why not make it to bring positivity.

Good use of color and perspective!
Liked it when I first saw it 3 years ago, still like it now. Still, it must have been hard to find such a range of neon lights.
wowza how did you get this to work????
Wooow 8D I want that in my room!
I like it!
I love the colors!
this made my day
May I ask you, if I could use that picture in a port folio about Noble gas? It looks great and would be perfect for a 1st-page-picture
credits of course included.

Would have liked the Little Mermaid a lot more if she'd looked like that.
Just perfect
Rock and roll man

Wow, this is amazing!!
She's lovely.
This is stunning
her tail is magestic
So gourgeous.
I don't have words to describe how amazing she is!!!!! Damm

Looks pretty amazing. The fish within the tail almost makes it look like they are part of the tale.
Breathtacking amazing love the detail and the colors are just perfect amazing job on this

An eel mermaid.

I stopped breathing when I saw this... Amazing.
This is really beautiful.
Great job!
Great job!
so gorgeous! Her fin is huge and beautiful. I love how big it is, most pictures have the fin too anatomically small <3 fave!
I am obsessed with mermaids...first tattoo was a huge mermaid on my calf to prove it lol. I really love this piece. The colors are sooo vivid and that pink can be too much, but it works with the blue and the "flow" of the picture. I love her tail, I love her breasts (shaped very nicely) I love the nipple clamps instead of clams or something non-original. I love her hair style, it really fits the attitude she seems to be giving off with her pose. I am designing my office/workspace into a mermaid themed room since I love them so much and I would love to order a quality print of this to put on my wall!
Still Love this!
Who said mermaids had to have long hair anyway?
She's beautiful
I love the colors, and she's just beautiful!
she's a queen of mermaids! :3
she's a queen of mermaids! :3
OOOOH!!! so beatiful!!!

Holy shit, what if she was, like, swimming away from a shark and that chain got caught on some coral or something and it ripped her tits off?

If you want your hair to stay put, I'd recommend using this. It works, extremely well. You're hair seriously won't move. I tease my hair so I use it to hold the tease, never directly on my top layer of hair because it will look noticeably hard. I'll usually hold it, maybe a a little less than a foot, away from my the top layer of my hair and spray it quickly to add a little bit of shine. A little goes a looooong way, as well. So its very much worth the price. If you're not looking to "freeze" your hair, you shouldn't have even bought it in the first place. They have other "volumes", too. The lowest being 9, I believe. Oh, and it smells like candy imo. ;D

I have thick hair and lots of it. It is just ok for hold. It does not have a heavy feeling, but I find the hold to be just, so so. I find that I have to use more than usual to get the hold I want. I don't plan on repurchasing.

I love it! Really adds volume, keeps the style, even after sleeping, this still holds some of the style. The smell is nice, and it's the best that I've tried so far. The best part is how fast drying it is. I wish it wasn't so expenisve though.

I usually wear my hair down so I just use hairsprays to add volume to my very stubborn, flat Asian hair, to keep the front strands of hair out of my face, and to keep down most of the flyaways. First off, I spent about $20 at Chatters for this and I used it for most days during a course of three weeks - needless to say, it's almost gone... I really don't mind though because I didn't care for the smell it left on my hair and under certain lighting, you could see a lot of tiny white specks on the top of my head (my hair is black so it was noticeable - to me, anyway). This hairspray is supposedly "Super Hold" but I found the hold to be more milder than that - it didn't add a whole lot of volume which I am always looking for in a hairspray. I really like the packaging though - tall, slim aerosol can that can fit in my big handbag. Other than that, thumbs way down.

Leave it to the girl with the super-sensitive skin/hair to break the run of great reviews on this product. Pros: nice scent, sleek/stylish looking bottle, even spray from nozzle, strong hold, semi-reasonable price for salon product. Cons: Dulled & dried my fine hair (which is always nice and shiny) and made my scalp feel sun-burned. Won't buy again. The search continues...

I love this hairspray. Previous to this purchase I hated hairspray and would never use it. I finally bought some after hearing so many raves about it. I now use it all the time. It holds without feeling like you have anything in his hair, plus it does not flake at all.

A girlfriend turned me on to Kenra since she has thin hair like me. I bought it all- shampoo, conditioner, hair spray - and loved it all, but I just had to write about the Volume Spritz. My hair just wants to cling to my head in a fine, limp string, so I'm used to coaxing it into behaving more like a full head of hair with volume sprays, round brush, velcro curlers, hair dryer. This makes my job so much easier. The spritz really plumps up the volume and then holds for the rest of the day. Makes me forget what my hair is really like, until I use something else on the weekend, and it retreats into it's limpness again. This is so very expensive that I try to make it last, but well worth it.

I have so many good things to say about this product! I've used many other hair sprays that left me with a terrible result. I was so glad to find this...it is my favorite hairspray. It's easy to use and goes on light. I particularly love the way it doesn't make my hair crunchy or too stiff like the other products I have used in the past. The only thing that's kind of inconvenient is that I have to go to my salon to buy this...not a problem though...definitely not enough to stop me from using this product, it's great! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a hairspray that doesn't leave a nasty oder or leave a terrible crunchy result.

In my never ending search for the perfect hair and makeup products, I found this at a local beauty supply store. I love this hairspray! It holds well without being sticky and it doesn't flake. If I use this to set my hair when it is in velcro rollers, it gives my hair crazy volume. Everyone always compliments me. I also think it smells fantastic! A little expensive, but I don't mind paying for a quality products, especially ones that I use daily.

This world has whittled away my goodness
A graying bitter man displayed
An angel, 10 yrs old, repentant
A half dead heretic
Embers of images playing through the Church's halls
A mind so full of hymns and lessons from the basement
The Holy Eucharist dissolved upon innocent tongues
Eternal backslide, I've lost my way
Here I am, a lamb defaced
Lost in the world of fables
The nearer to the pew
The further from the Son and the light
In times of woe you cease to be
The rock for me to stand upon
Drowning in the siren's song for me
Never touch the face of love again
~ Rohrbough~
In times of woe you cease to be
The rock for me to stand upon
Drowning in the tide that washes me
Swaying lifeless to and fro
Come to me now, why so afraid?
Your faith was tossed away
Like branches withering and gathered for the burn
Now we come face to face, my son, the trembling apostate
This jealous God will show you what remains
I am the dumping ground of dreams unplanted in the soul
A lantern left behind you stumble through the night
A life of broken dreams, I tear upon delicate seams
Eternal backslider you've paved your way

Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
NBC has launched a website for black people. Because nothing says "colorblind society" quite like making sure we're all segregated by race. Maybe we should call the new website SeparateButEqual.com.
President Obama lectured to a bunch of preschoolers about racism and prejudice… And here I thought he was just there to crowdsource some foreign policy advice.
Pope Francis has said that he wants to walk across the US-Mexico border as a "beautiful gesture" of support for immigrants. Also, he might get free Obamacare this way.
New Orleans has banned smoking pretty much everywhere… Bars, casinos, sidewalks, beaches, public parks, condominiums, public and private nursing homes, construction sites, golf courses, and millions of other locations are now all "smoke free". (You might still be allowed to smoke in your private residence if you have the light off and hide underneath the covers.)
McDonalds is seeing their earnings fall. If they're having trouble selling their meat-like products at a buck a piece, they're really going to struggle when they have to up the price to cover a new $15 minimum wage.
Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
Benjamin Netanyahu will address a joint session of Congress in March. Personally, I think we should print him up a Hawaiian birth-certificate and run him for President.
The city council for Washington DC is considering a bill that would allow illegal immigrants to vote in local elections. It only seems fair, given how many times dead people usually get to vote in DC.
For being college students, these kids don't seem too bright: The student government at the University of Kentucky sent out a survey asking students how the school can best regulate and restrict free speech on campus. Because nothing demonstrates the spirit of the 1st Amendment quite like a permitting process and "free speech zone", right?
The Obama Administration says it is not interested in eliminating Iran's nuclear ambitions… This is a little off topic, but have you watched Dr. Strangelove recently?
Five young immigrants desecrated a statue of the Virgin Mary in the Italian city of Perugia. Despite the violent act of disrespect, no one seems to be too worried about suicide-nuns.
No one watched the State of the Union… Well, actually that's not quite right. Almost no one watched the speech… Virtually no one watched MSNBC.
Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
Ruth Bader Ginsburg appeared to fall asleep during the President's speech. Everyone else in the room appeared to be jealous.
Barack Obama quoted Barack Obama in his State of the Union address… What do you want to bet that he refers to himself in the third person when he's talking to his staff?
Obama has used the term "Middle Class Economics" to describe his fiscal policies. Sure, middle class incomes might have just hit a 50 year low; but don't let those little "facts" get in the way of a good Orwellian sales pitch.
Oh, and Obama is clearly taking global terrorism very seriously… So seriously, in fact, he wouldn't even mention Al Qaeda, or Yemen, in his speech. I guess he wanted to focus on the rousing success of his campaign against common sense.
Slate.com is insisting that we "forget about the oil and gas industry", and work instead on curbing cattle as a source of methane… Look, I'm doing what I can; but there are limits on how much red meat I can eat each day.
The action star Liam Neeson called America's gun ownership a "f@#&ing disgrace". And now a gun manufacturer has decided to boycott anything, and everything, to do with the British actor. The manufacturer even announced that it would stop providing prop guns to movie studios that work with Neeson. It'll be cute watching him do another "Taken" movie while pointing his finger at bad guys and making a "pow" sound.
Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
John Kerry said he brought France a "hug" after the Charlie Hebdo attacks. (Yes, he actually described his trip to France as a "hug" for the French people.) I guess the Hallmark card got lost in the mail.
Lithuania is compiling a list of ways the ordinary citizen can help resist Russian forces should Vladimir Putin decide to invade. Advice includes things like "organize demonstrations through Twitter"… May I suggest they take a look at a short 27 word Amendment to the US Constitution for some guidance instead?
A gunman has surrendered to French authorities after taking several hostages in a Post Office in France. That whole "gun free" zone - known as Paris - is really working out.
A Chicago strip club has been honored for "helping improve the neighborhood" by being a good business. There is, after all, nothing quite like a building full of scantily clad women to help lift the morale of a dull neighborhood.
According to the White House, radical Islamists (not their choice of words) hate us because of Gitmo and Bush… Because obviously before Bush, Jihadists were well known for sending delicious fruit baskets in an effort to convert the infidels.
The top Obamacare official (ya know, the lady that helped with the healthcare.gov rollout, and later lied about how many people signed up?) is officially stepping down. I sure hope she can take her health insurance with her to her next job.
Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
Only 33 percent of Americans approve of the way Barack Obama is fighting the Islamic State. The rest of the respondents were unaware that what Obama is doing qualifies as "fighting".
A Maryland couple are being investigated by authorities for criminal neglect after they allowed their children to walk home alone from a nearby park… Maybe we should look at charging the Nannycrats in Maryland with criminal neglect for allowing these folks to parent without supervision? </SarcasmFont End>
Duke University is going to start sounding a daily Muslim "call to prayer". Of course, the Pledge is still banned because the word "God" might offend someone.
Are you in need of a vacation? Why not travel to the worker's paradise of Cuba? The US is normalizing relations with the "wannabe-Stalinists of the Caribbean" as of Friday, making travel from the US to the island legal… however, if you're Cuban and you want to come to the United States, you might need to learn how to swim.
A Rabbi in Europe just made my morning: He is on a crusade to get the EU to allow Jews to carry guns in Europe… While we're at it, we might want to arm some French satirists.
The Pope has said there are "limits" to free speech when it insults someone's faith. I'm Catholic, and I think I just became insulted… Seriously: It's a matter of time until I travel to the Vatican and nail a thesis to the door of St. Peter's Basilica.
Intel has partnered with a far Left, Israel-hating, male feminist… So it's kinda like they're working with a typical Democrat.
Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
For the first time in 35 years, more businesses are dying out than starting up… Yes, Mr. Obama: You built that.
The IRS says that only about half of the people who call the IRS for help this year will be able to talk to someone, as the agency cuts back on personnel and services. It really just seems like a super-swell idea to give these folks control over our healthcare. Right?
Now Barack Obama is pushing for a government-run internet. Because they're doing such a bang up job with mail-delivery, healthcare, infrastructure maintenance, and education, right? Just imagine: An internet service with the efficiency of the DMV.
Convicted felon John Morrissey won reelection in Virginia's 74th district… From his jail cell. The district apparently seemed okay with being represented by a guy convicted of having sex with a 17 year old staffer… Republicans are obviously unacceptable, but sexual-predator felons are just fine.
The Muslim mayor of a Dutch city has told his fellow Muslims to either get on board with free speech, or "f--- off". Radical Clerics are currently trying to determine whether or not they should issue a fatwa against "f---ing off".
Do you ever wonder why more Muslims don't speak out against Jihad? Well… This might have something to do with it: A Muslim coffee shop owner has been receiving death threats after displaying a "Je suis Charlie" sign at his place of business. It turns out it's pretty tough to be the "voice of reason" when there's a handful of madmen with guns in the same room.
Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
Researches have pointed out that even King George III wasn't really able to suspend, change, or implement laws unilaterally… So, Congrats to Obama for making King George III look like a constitutionalist.
A Saudi Cleric has declared that snowmen are "un-Islamic" and should therefore be banned. French satirists are no doubt planning to build a snowman of Mohammed as soon as the weather permits.
Vice News, arguing for increased regulation of firearms, says that government should treat gun-ownership like car ownership… I don't know that making people run a background check to purchase a vehicle is really the direction we want to go.
Officials with the Department of Health and Human Services were too obese to fly coach, costing the US taxpayer roughly $31 million in 1st class tickets. I hope that at the very least, the government had the good sense to make sure they weren't on an airline with an inflight meal.
Uh-oh… Bush derangement syndrome is making a comeback in the Democrat Party. Sen. Chris Murphy says the Charlie Hebdo attacks are partially Bush's fault. (If these people could blame Bush for your missing car keys, they would do it.)
Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
As world leaders linked arms and joined the millions of individuals who attended the Charlie Hebdo march in Paris, Obama and Biden watched football. After all, you have to prioritize in life.
Francois Hollande decided it would be appropriate to ban a "right wing" political party from the historic French Unity Rally over the weekend… Because nothing says "Je suis Charlie" quite like a little censorship.
Well, the Pope just brought an early end to the Left's love affair with him. He explained that terrorism is the result of "deviant religion." Next thing you know, he might indicate that abortion is a sin, or marriage should be between a man and a woman. (Gasp!)
A Hermosa Beach restaurateur is receiving death threats after he made the decision to serve foie gras. I wasn't aware that PETA issued fatwas.
Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos forgot they had to play football on Sunday.
The NYPD is charging officers $400 for new bullet proof vests… As far as I know, there is not a vest on the market that is capable of protecting cops from being stabbed in the back by politicians.
Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
The terrorists who killed 12 people in Paris before fleeing into the countryside, said they "were prepared to die as martyrs." French authorities were happy to help out.
President Obama's newest plan involves making the first two years of community college "free"… Because our current government-funded K-12 education is doing such a bang up job, let's expand it to include Higher Ed.
I want to make sure I have this correct: We ended the war in Iraq; but now ISIS controls large swaths of land, there is widespread destruction of democratic rule, and the US has 2,100 soldiers on the ground? Obama sure has a funny way of earning that Nobel Peace Prize.
It looks like Scott Walker might be getting ready for a 2016 run. Union leaders nationwide are being asked to visit with their doctor about the risk of heart attacks.
Speaker Boehner (ugh…) says he will fight "tooth and nail" against Obama's executive amnesty… Ya know, the executive amnesty that Boehner funded with the help of Democrats? Yeah, that one. He'll fight it. Seriously. For reals.
Obama gave a speech only two blocks away from the scandal-plagued VA hospital in Phoenix; and he didn't stop by for a quick visit. The mainstream media ignored the snub, the right-wing media acted outraged, and the Vets at the VA thanked God they didn't have to fake smiles and be part of a photo-op.
Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
In the wake of recent Paris terrorist attacks, the White House says it needs to "redouble" their efforts to explain the "true tenants of Islam"… I was unaware that defining someone else's religion was under the purview of the Executive Branch.
The International Business Times has since deleted the story, but they were running a piece that blamed Israel for the Paris terrorist attacks. Also likely to be revealed by IBT: The moon landing was fake, the CIA killed JFK using a "Manchurian candidate" style program, and Elvis isn't dead… He's just cryogenically frozen at a government building someone near Roswell, New Mexico.
Chris Matthews says that tea-party Republicans "aren't that far" from white supremacists. How does he know this? Well… Because these people don't get a tingle in their leg when they think of Barack Obama.
Best… News… Ever… Barbara Boxer will not run for reelection in 2016. The California Democrat says she is looking forward to sitting back and relaxing in the socialist paradise of her home state. Gosh: A California Democrat living off a government paycheck while not working… I'm glad to see she's decided to join the ranks of her constituency.
The Fed is terrified of low inflation, or (gasp!) deflation in the economy. Because, as we all know, it is such a tragedy when basic life necessities like eggs, milk and meat aren't overpriced. Right?
Did you know that 75 percent of US casualties in the Afghanistan war happened under Obama's watch? I only point this out because the Left was so focused on giving us a daily death tally when W was in office… Coincidentally, that tactic got a little boring right around the time Barry took over.

What are training blocks?
Instead of a linear progression I prefer to use blocks of training. A block of training is simply a certain period of training that uses the same exercises; the same training means, and that has similar training objectives.
A training block should not be shorter than two weeks (or two micro cycles of 5-10 days). A period shorter than that cannot lead to significant, chronic, positive adaptations. Generally a training block will either be 4 weeks in length or 8 weeks for a "double block".
Each training block is its functional unit, meaning that you plan each training block individually. Several blocks can be planned in advance, but when you do so you only plan the individual training sessions one block at a time. You may establish the goals of 4-6 blocks in advance, but the specific training to be used is planned 4 weeks, or 1 block, at a time. This will allow the coach to adjust the program according to how the athlete responds. During a block the loading schemes change every week. However the exercises stay the same for the whole block. You change exercises with the start of each new block. You have four different loading schemes possible in block training:
1. Introductory loading: This is where you introduce the athlete to the training methods and exercises that will be used in the whole training block. The volume and intensity is low because all we want is to establish the current level of the athlete and to get him used to the exercises being used.
2. Base loading: In this portion of the block the volume of training is maximal. The objective is to perform a very large amount of work, as much as the athlete/bodybuilder can tolerate. The fact that more sets are used will lead to more structural adaptations.
3. Shock loading: If the base loading week is based on a lot of volume, the shock loading portion is based on using a lot of intensity. The volume is lowered somewhat, to around 70-80% of that of the base week. But the loads used are higher. The fact that more intensity is used will lead to more functional adaptations.
4. Unloading/Test: This is planned at the end of a training block and is used to test how much the athlete progressed and help decide on the upcoming block. The test is planned for the 5th day of the week. On this day you will test your maximum on 3-4 different exercises (if you compete you test your competitive movements). The first 4 days of the week use a very low volume, no more than 50-60% of the volume of the base week. The intensity is 5 to 10% inferior to the shock week, but maximal for the test day. After the test day you have two days of complete rest.
Block structure
The most basic and easiest block to use is the four-week block. With a four-week block you devote one week to each type of loading. This is the best way to develop optimum results with most athletes. Once again, understand that the exercises used stay the same during the whole duration of the block, but you change exercises each time you change blocks.
The most effective training block is as follows:
Week 1: Introduction loading
Week 2: Base week
Week 3: Shock week
Week 4: Unloading and test
Here are a few blocks that I like to use:
Athletic/Strength block for a very efficient nervous system
Week 1: 3 x 5 (80-85% of max)
Week 2: 3 x 5 (80-85% of max), 3 x 4 (85-90% of max)
Week 3: 3/2/1/3/2/1 (90% / 95% / 100% / 92% / 97% / 102%)
Week 4: 3 x 3(85-90% of max) for the first 4 days, test on the 5th day
Athletic/Strength block for a lesser nervous system
Week 1: 3 x 8 (77-82% of max)
Week 2: 3 x 8 (77-82% of max), 3 x 4 (85-90% of max)
Week 3: 5/3/2/5/3/2 (85% / 90% / 95% / 87% / 92% / 97%)
Week 4: 3 x 6(80-85% of max) for the first 4 days, test on the 5th day
Those are the two basic cycles I use with most of my athletes in the off-season and it has been shown to bring great strength and power gains. However, this is for athletes and strength development. For bodybuilding purposes the same approach can be used and it becomes:
Bodybuilding block for fast-twitch dominant/easy gainers
Week 1: 3 x 8
Week 2: 3 x 8, 3 x 6
Week 3: 7/5/3/7/5/3
Week 4: 2 x 6, 2 x 3
Bodybuilding block for mixed fibers/average gainers
Week 1: 3 x 10
Week 2: 3 x 10, 3 x 8
Week 3: 8/6/4/8/6/4
Week 4: 2 x 8, 2 x 5
Bodybuilding block for slow-twitch dominant/hard gainers
Week 1: 3 x 15
Week 2: 3 x 12, 3 x 10
Week 3: 10/7/5/10/7/5
Week 4: 2 x 10, 2 x 6
Youll notice that I did not give percentages for the bodybuilding blocks, thats because when planning a bodybuilding training I recommend using a load close to your best (for the plan number of reps) at all sets.
The workouts:
With blocks of training I like to use 4 sessions per week. Depending on the type of client I will use one of the following schedules:
Day 1: Lower body
Day 2: Upper body
Day 3: Off
Day 4: Lower body
Day 5: Upper body
Day 6: Off
Day 7: Off
Day 1: Chest and back
Day 2: Legs and abs
Day 3: OFF
Day 4: Biceps and triceps
Day 5: OFF
Day 6: Anterior/medial deltoid and rear deltoid
Day 7: OFF
The exercises
At each workout 4-5 exercises should be used, each of the exercises respect the loading (sets, reps, and intensity) guidelines for the week. A good exercise selection could go something like this (these are just suggestions):
Day 1: Full back squat, Romanian dead lift, 1-leg back extension, lunges
Day 2: Bench press, incline press, push press, barbell rowing, seated rowing/chins
Day 4: Power snatch from blocks, power clean from blocks, front squat, jump squat (light)
Day 5: Push jerk, ballistic bench press (light), over speed chins (with partner help), 1 arm rowing
Day 1: Low incline dumbbell bench press, flat flies, dips, seated rowing, barbell rowing
Day 2: Full back squat, lunges, Romanian dead lift, leg curl, abdominal work
Day 4: Zottman curl, hammer curl, preacher curl, overhead cable triceps extension, EZ-bar lying triceps extension
Day 6: Alternate dumbbell shoulder press, incline lateral raises, 1-arm cable lateral raises, Bent press, bent over lateral raises
These are the exercises for one block of training, the exercises should change after the 4 weeks. Obviously, these are just examples of possible exercise choices. You can use equivalent exercises if you feel more comfortable with other choices.
Changing blocks
When you change blocks you must first choose new exercises. You do not have to use all new exercises at each block, but its best to change at least 3 out of 5 for optimum results. The amount of reps, sets and intensity can vary depending on the goal of the athlete. The guidelines I gave are those of my workhorse blocks; those that I will use most of the time. However there are some times where I will use more volume or more intensity depending on the needs and capacities of the athlete. If you understand the structure of a 4-week block you can easily manipulate volume and intensity according to the needs of the athlete while still respecting the basic principles of block loading.
Block objectives
As I mentioned, during a block the goal(s) is/are stable. Meaning that one block might be devoted to strength development (strength block), another one to power development (power block), another one to speed development (speed block), and yet another one to hypertrophy (hypertrophy block). Now, just because a certain quality is emphasized during a block doesnt mean that you do not include work for other capacities. Even during a phase where there is a certain emphasis you still try to maintain (or even improve) other physical capacities.
But generally speaking each training block should only have one general objective. And depending on what type of activity an athlete does, the correct arrangement of the blocks will vary. I will briefly discuss each type of block as well as give you the proper block sequence depending on the type of athlete.
Types of blocks
There are three general block divisions, each having several types of blocks. The divisions are: special-strength work, track work, and sport work. For the purposes of this book only the first division of blocks will be explored.
The special-strength work category can have several types of blocks. The most common being: strength block, power block and hypertrophy block.
Strength block: A strength block is also called concentrated strength loading. Meaning that a large volume of work is dedicated to improving limit strength in all of the muscle groups, and during this type of block, strength work will constitute around 75% of the total training volume while 15% will be dedicated to power work and 10% to hypertrophy.
Power block: A power block can also be called conjugated-sequencing loading. This means that you use a wide array of training methods situated on the whole force spectrum (see the chapter on training methods for a complete listing of these methods) with an emphasis on ballistic work, speed-strength and strength-speed work. During this phase power exercises comprise 50-70% of the training volume while limit strength work accounts for 20-30% and hypertrophy work for 10-20%.
Hypertrophy block: The hypertrophy block is also termed a structural block. Quite simply, the objective is to increase the size of the muscular structures (muscle and tendons). During this phase, high-volume/controlled eccentric and isolation exercises are used a lot. Basically, it includes the most effective bodybuilding methods (see the chapter on bodybuilding tips for some ideas). 50-70% of your training volume is spent on hypertrophy work, limit strength work accounts for 20-30% and power work for 10-20%.

Staff and students at Katharine Lady Berkeley's school celebrating their £150,000 Olympic grant
Lucy Fulford / / News
Katharine Lady Berkeley's school (KLB) has been awarded funding from Sport England's Inspired Facilities Fund.
This is part of the £150 million Places People Play legacy programme aimed at carrying the Olympic and Paralympic spirit into communities across the country.
KLB had been awarded the substantial sum to upgrade their sports centre, which is used by local clubs as well as the school's 1500 students.
The money will be spent on refurbishing changing facilities and toilets, improving the games hall itself and installing a lit path to playing surfaces being developed on private land beyond the school boundary.
The third round of the Olympic Legacy funding was announced on Friday, January 25, exactly six months after the London 2012 Olympics began.
Nationally £16.6million of National Lottery funding will be invested in 310 local projects.
Gillian Hayward, chairman of governors at KLB said the school was delighted with the award.
She said: "By renovating these facilities, we can increase the breadth of activities, events and fun experiences available and therefore improve support to our students, their families and to the communities we serve."
Shane Blackshaw, finance and business director at KLB added: "We're really pleased. It's not often that you get good news to this effect.
"Without it it's unlikely that the work would take place in the foreseeable future."
KLB was one of five beneficiaries in the county, which include Cheltenham Saracens RFC and Tewkesbury Rugby Club.
John Stevens, chief executive of Active Gloucestershire, described the awards as great news for sport in Gloucestershire.
He said: "There has been a significant surge in involvement in sport following the Olympics and Paralympics and it is vital that local club facilities are up to date and capable of responding to this increase if we are to maintain momentum behind increased involvement."

another gem missed while we were out at SXSW was purity ring's excellent performance of "bodyache" on conan. watch here, and listen to another eternity – out now.
we finally have our follow up to the excellent shrines. despite an early leak, we're still getting a legal, full album stream of their newest, another eternity, via NPR music.
purity ring – another eternity (full album stream)
purity ring's megan and corin were in the bbc radio 1 studios to talk up their sophomore lp another eternity and debut a new song "repetition." the track is strikingly more confident and more streamlined than anything on the duo's warpy debut. listen to the track at the 8:28 mark in the player above.

finally, some concrete purity ring news. after teasing us with "push pull" a few months ago. well, now with a new song, "begin again," they've also announced another eternity, the follow up to shrines.
the album will be out march 3rd via 4AD. check the cover art below the jump. it's quite nice.

a new purity ring song has surfaced called "push pull." megan sounds as ghostly-sweet as ever, but corin's beats have a streamlined, pop-friendly character to them this go 'round. listen to "push pull" above.

i'm sure the majority opinion of old was that "25 bucks" was an obvious highlight – if not the best track from the outing. so it's nice to have a visual for it now.
this was one of my favorite songs all last year. so glad this is what danny chose to perform with purity ring's megan james in tow for his network TV debut.
old was pretty good. go listen to it.
purity ring breathe new life into a pretty solid, but pretty underwhelming single by lady gaga standards. this remix is pretty great, and will be featured on the upcoming remix EP.
jon hopkins' immunity has been on nonstop play for me the last few weeks. add to that aural-obsession purity ring's megan james, who collaborated with hopkins on a remix of her band's song "amenamy," who lends her syrupy vocals to a new version of the wafty "breathe this air." listen to the track below.

london's jon hopkins, whose ambient techno album immunity from earlier this year is damn good, took his skills and applied them to purity ring's "amenamy" from the equally stunning shrines. listen to the remix above.

how does purity ring celebrate the grammys? by covering fuckin' soulja boy, that's how. the soulja/ester dean single wasn't bad or anything, it just didn't do much. i think it's safe to say that this cover is destined for internet success in the least, as PR have surely made it their own.
download it here.
in the latest episode of pitchfork weekly, purity ring sat down to discuss a handful of things – namely, destiny's child and danny brown. the latter of which will be promised some production on his upcoming LP, old. swt.
