If you are looking for a good neighborhood, try the South Hill area. We have lived on the South Hill for 9 yrs. We recently upgraded our home to a nicer neighborhood and home on the South Hill. It is a great area for families. You can find a nice 2000 SqFt home for around $250000-We paid 230,000 for our 4 bd 2 ba, 2100 Sq ft home on a 1/3 acre lot, 2 years ago, it is now been appraised at (and our property taxes show it!!) $295000-. Taxes in WA are getting ridiculous and all the money goes to Seattle, so we see none of it. The winters are long, and seem darker and longer each year. The are wetter then they have been in the past, they used to be riddled with snow, but sunny most of the time. Now we have nothing but, clouds, fog (something new), and rain. We are thinking of making a move to Phoenix, for the sun, and job opportunities. My husband is a Software Developer and there are limited positions in this are for his experience.
Don't get me wrong, we have enjoyed our years here and have made great friends, some of our family has even moved here from Cali. But the technical economy is not all that great, and the weather is getting tiresome, not to mention i hate the snow and cold.

Live here if you choices are Spokane, Mogadishu an - 3/13/2016
Move here if your choice is between those cities. Lots of people from those cities have moved here and within minutes they are on Medicaid. The city is safe when compared to the above cities but I don't think there is a city in the nation that has more bums and homeless on the downtown street corners than Spokane. The downtown parking is difficult and expensive. Home construction is expensive. The locals are weird. The climate is acceptable and the area has some fun things to do but the fact that the locals say the city is cleaner than it used to be is truly frightening. The Brown's Addition which has (had) most of the city's iconic older homes is now an apartment ghetto where homeless wander aimlessly through the neighborhood and you can walk around to the smell of pot wafting through the air. The airport has very limited airline service and flights to most places involve two stops.
We are a sanctuary city which is to say the city will not report the actual or suspected immigration status of an illegal resident (undocumented alien) to the immigration and customs authorities which is a violation of federal law.
A large plurality here is on Medicaid, many are on meth and the city looks like a slowly dying great uncle....but hey, it is better and safer than Moscow, Russia and Mogadishu![Comment on this Posting]
Visit but don't move here - 3/13/2016
The city is dirty but if you speak with the locals who have been here all their lives, they say it is much better than it was. The homeless are on nearly every corner downtown. The Browns Addition which has some of the city's oldest and grandest homes has been turned into an apartment ghetto with homeless inhabiting Coeur d' Alene park. Forget about your teenagers getting jobs here because the leftest city council has made it impossible for businesses to hire the young and unskilled. Last week we went to the downtown mall and spent 35 minutes trying to get out of the flipping parking garage which you are obligated to use (and pay) because street parking is sparse (and expensive). Only a few airlines service the city. drug use is rampant. I am a physician and I do not go a week without taking care of some pregnant patient who is actively using meth, heroine, ethanol or all three. Everyone is on Medicaid....why work? The city was planned to have parks within walking distance of most neighborhoods and the parks are nice. Unless you have to move here, don't. [Comment on this Posting]
I'm trying to save you - 1/17/2016
I have lived in Mississippi, Utah, Germany and Nebraska. I found all of these places very pleasant.
In our desire to be closer to family(in a neighboring state)we moved to Spokane. BIG MISTAKE. First of all the neighborhood Airway Heights is an abomination. It is built around a jail. We had door to door salesman ALLLL the time. I'm assuming due to the lack of jobs. There was actually someone selling hair WEAVES door to door!!
Spokane itself is dirty. Don't believe me? Google these words " why is Spokane so..."
It will say ghetto, dangerous and dirty. It is all of those things. New businesses struggle here.
The mountains, rivers, and lakes are gorgeous but the people are weird and any normal jobs are given to local family members. I have been a professional for 10 years and cannot find a descent job.

no jobs - 10/22/2014
there are no jobs in Spokane wa. my grandson put in an application for a job at a movie theatre and was told they had over 100 applications for it. I have 30 years office and call center experience and could not get a job in spokane. my daughter has a bachalors and a masters degree and could not find a full time job. I have to drive 45 minutes to the next city Coeur d alene id to work and it is next to impossible to find a place to live in Coeur d alene id unless you have perfect credit and it takes a week to find out if you are approved for an apartment. all housing in both cities are owned by corporations. there are very few apartments or houses owned by an individual for rent a one bedroom ranges from 650 to 1000 a month. I have lived in several places in this country and this area is the most difficult to live in that I have ever seen for jobs and housing. it is pretty here but not that pretty. in Spokane there are homeless people all over the city panhandling and there are four colleges and a military base to compete for jobs. in Coeur d alene id it is a tourist area and extremely expensive. if I had known what it would be like to live here I would not have moved[Comment on this Posting]
20 Years in Spokane - 8/14/2014
We were assigned to Fairchild AFB 20 years ago. The city has grown into a great spot to live, with descent shopping, restaurants and entertainment. There is a lot to take advantage of with several lakes, rivers, mountains, etc. The healthcare is very good, and with Riverpoint campus and all the expansion of the medical school, it keeps getting better. We even have specialty veterinarian schools in Spokane. My Boxer was treated at their eye clinic for a very reasonable fee. I felt very fortunate to have such great healthcare for my pets. Most of my opinions about Spokane are positive, but there are just a couple of things I'm less optimistic about.
First, the amount of graffiti and other vandalism is becoming an issue for me. But I was surprised at how high our crime rate is here, since I generally feel safe and confident in most areas. And second, the winters are becoming more difficult for me as I get older. Although, the weather is generally easy to deal with the rest of the year.[Comment on this Posting]
Should You Move To or Visit Spokane? - 6/12/2014
Oh heck, if you are looking for a great place to live or just want to visit, move to Spokane, or come on by my place! 89% of the people here are fantabulous. The rest, coming and going, want more for less, don't want to work, are whiners, know-it-alls, in short not worth listening to, so ignore their negativity.
I own The Heart of Spokane, it is a retail store currently on Monroe Street. If you come in and it's your birthday and you tell me I will sing for you. If you need something vintage, jewelry, collectible or something dusty to keep you busy come on by. We dance, tell funny stories, you can watch me paint, or check out the fine art in the store. There are also seventeen other vintage stores on Monroe in case I bore you, but I pride myself in knowing all kinds of stuff about Spokane. If you just want to take up some time, do it here, I promise it will be fun.
If you need advice on your kids, husband or spouse I offer it up with big chucks of silly, and funny stories, I mean really you have to get free stuff sometimes.
If you need to know where to eat try Christ Kitchen up the street has the best doggone gourmet chicken pita sandwiches in the world, they are a wonderful group of women who have gone from being homeless to being an important part of the community. But I have a list of the gourmet, as well as the best junk food in town.
There are a dozen places to check out art, close to 900 restaurants to feed your face, and the median cost of houses are $120,000.00 if you are looking to buy. There is lots of business being done all over Spokane and in most cases the business folks are handshake loyal. We have some lovely bars, and some unbelievable events. Hoopfest, and Bloomsday are huge people draws. We have picnics and parties all over Spokane.
People are diverse here, and most of us love everyone. Yes, there are a few crabs, a dozen or so meth monkeys, always a bad apple or two but that's life anywhere in the world.
We have some real pearls The Davenport Hotel, and its offshoots. The Fox Theater is amazing. Riverfront Park has all kinds of things to view and there is an amazing sculpture walk along the river. Manito Park is our most formal park and is a great visit, and if you want a bit of a drive CDA is about 50 miles away. We have skiing, biking, basketball, rafting, boating, horseback riding and a whole lot of wineries. It's not that expensive to stay for a short time and it's easy to live financially comfortable here too.
Fairchild Air Force base is nearby and we have lots of active and retired military in the area, don't forget to shake their hands when you see them. I've never met one who I did not want to know better.
I want you to know I welcome you to Spokane, have a great short visit, or, move here, either way come spend some money in the area and have a great time.
See you soon!

City that needs jobs, less liberals and an identit - 5/26/2014
Spokane is a city that seems to have lost it's identity. Not a bad place to live or raise kids. Like all areas, it has ghettos and crime in particular areas. Democrats in the Governors office and US Congress WA reps have done little or nothing to create jobs. The pro sports entertainment is lil fish in a big pool. Only Junior Hockey and rookie league baseball.
There is a growing arts culture and Spokane Valley and Sprague has great potential to be an arts district. Education? There are too many schools to name in the area. SFCC, WSU, EWU, etc [Comment on this Posting]
I moved here and started a business 4 years ago. I have had to spend more time trying to fix this community than I could on my business.
No matter how many nonprofits and community groups I have joined it
did not change the facts about Spokane. Spokane is poor and defeated,
miserable and hostile, trashy and unprofessional. Most of the people have adopted a culture of lazy, selfish, hostile, and violent behavior. Spokane is a Cesspool! Spokane is the real-deal ghetto. The whole place! I am desperately trying to liquidate everything here and move. I will be taking most of my staff with me. Not joking... It is that bad. Don't make the same mistake I did. Spokane will turn your little-ones into convicts and your property into rubble...and the cops don't even show-up when you call 911 (can you believe that?!) DO YOUR REASEARCH. Don't buy into the positive image the city is trying to promote.[Comment on this Posting]

Didn't realize this was a communist type site that reviews comments. That is so controlling, and unfair to people who are trying to get honest feedback. If I am saying I am looking for an all white place, you won't post it. If I say I am proud to live in a diverse place, you will post it! Hateful racist anti-white site!!! I bet my bottom dollar you won't post what I just sent in, and I would not have bothered if I had known you review comments. We live in the Middle East!!! Controlled media everywhere, how freedom of speech lovely of you! Thank goodness people are starting to fight back. America is dying....[Comment on this Posting]
Liberals and non-whites please consider California - 1/18/2014
I am so relieved to read that Spokane is conservative, and that if you are non-white, you should consider somewhere else. It is a sad day that we MUST look at diversity as no other option. Like forcing marriage onto someone with a partner they have nothing in common with. No other country has this stress. If you live in Japan, you can move to any city and it sill feels like your culture, your language, and your home. Diversity is not for everyone. That isn't to imply automatic hate exists, or that anyone wishes bad things on another race. I love different cultures and different groups of people, and that's why I have spent my entire life traveling. If I don't wish to bring back every part of the globe I have visited to be my neighbor, because I love and value my own culture and language, that does NOT make anyone a bad person. The progressive liberals who force their preferences and political agendas onto everyone are the people full of hate and lack of sensitivity. The blatant unfairness of being forced to live with the globe in your own homeland is so sickly unfair I don't know where to begin! No other country does this to their own people! After what I have read, I am considering Spokane seriously, because I am now in California in an all non-white neighborhood, and although people are ok, I am lonely. I prefer my own culture and language, and I won't be made to feel guilty or ashamed of my own people. In so many subtle ways, that is the hate agenda that is being pushed. If somewhere is not diverse, it must be forced. That's just wrong. We aren't allowed to go to the forbidden island in Hawaii if we are no of Hawaiian blood. Our differences is what's makes the world a beautiful place. If we force us to mix, those differences will disappear! Japan won't change, but America, Canada and Europe are on their way of being good and lost culturally......Anywhere where Europeans live they want fragmented and diversified into shards of nothingness. It's a racist hate, post-WWII agenda, aimed at an entire innocent generation of people. If you are also white-Euro, or of this ancestry struggling to find places to live where you are a majority, and stand to remain so - start taking a peaceful stand.[Comment on this Posting]
Climate - 9/11/2013
Spokane has 4 distinct seasons: Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. Each has its charm, as well as outdoor activities from fishing in the Spring, camping/hiking in the Summer, Green Bluff trips for pumpkins in the Fall and awesome cross-country skiing in the Winter.
Winters can be real sneakers, ranging from just a few showers of snowfall to ice storms that require battening down of the hatches. Fall colors on the tree is without doubt one of the prettiest shows in town. Spring is heralded in by the sweet smell of lilacs, the city's namesake flower. Their colors range from whitest of the the white to deep purples and pinks. Summer temperatures rarely go over 90 degrees and are more likely in the 70-90 degree range, tempered by the occasional and very remarkable thunder storms that take over the sky with sheet and strike lightning.

A good place to live - 7/21/2013
First of all I'm going to try and clear up some misinformation and misconceptions and down right lies and meanness about Spokane.
We must all remember though that many people have an agenda going when they write things myself included for the above reasons, others because of their own problems, issues, negative or positive experiences.
That said...I've lived here all my life 65+ years and have been involved in many different aspects of the city and valley and because of my career I've worked with thousands of people and know their personal experiences.
Spokane does NOT have a homeless problem any worse then any other city in fact not as bad as most. A poster on here implied that there are multitudes because of the 4 hospitals we have that they come for the care, that is just plain illogical thinking they can get care anywhere most choose not to. We have 4 hospitals because greater Spokane serves a half a million people not just the 200,000+ in Spokane proper.
Someone else said the farmers burn their fields and smoke us out not any more haven't been able to in awhile.
Another said we're overrun with gangs again not true there are gangs not anymore then any other city our size and a special gang enforcement unit was put in place and that's helped. We're to quiet of a town to attract to many, not important enough for them.
Meth yes same as other towns it's a scourge on humanity.
Streets not safe, drug deals on every corner that's just bull, unless you're in a bad area of town then mostly you won't get bothered unless you're looking for trouble. Panhandled maybe but just be nice and say you have nothing on you and keep walking.
People in there 20's are often unsatisfied, not enough to do or they are kind of outcasts the nerds, geeks, party goers the homely girls and guys that feel slighted, etc. so they go looking for the greener pastures.
If you want some good info check out...
Don't make a mistake of believing everything you read on here or any where put it all together, go visit, talk to people and judge for yourself.
Some of the things that have been said on here have given me a good laugh like the poor man who said mental illness was rampant here. I wondered if the poor thing had experienced a stay in the mental hospital, it must be awful to think everyone around you is mentally ill, sounds paranoid to me.
And the list of inaccuracies goes on but you get the idea.

4th of July ( Independence Day ) - 7/4/2013
I moved here in Jan. 2012. I have loved it here until today. Your celebration of the 4th of July is unbelievably bad. First I find out that no fireworks at all is allowed in the city or even the county. Then I find that I would have to go to River Front Park to see the fireworks and fight for both parking and space just to enjoy fireworks? I tired to see from my porch the fireworks but peoples trees are in my way. No place could I find to even see them. Wow, this is horrible. My children and grandchildren with me can not see fireworks on the 4th? Are you kidding me? For generations my family have been using fireworks and no one ever has even injured themselves, why because we carefully supervise. This is so disappointing. Worst holiday ever. Thank you Spokane. [Comment on this Posting]
We do not have 4 seasons - 2/7/2013
I have lived in Spokane for 28 years. The statement that Spokane has four seasons is inaccurate. We get 3 to 4 feet of snow most winters. Yes, you read that correctly. You had better like dealing with tons of snow and know how to drive on icy streets. Check out You Tube if you don't believe me. The snow generally stops in March and it stays chilly and cloudy until after the 4th of July. After July 4 it shoots up to over 95 degrees. It finally gets nice in August, but that is when the farmers decide to burn their grass fields so the air is filled with smoke and chokes your lungs. So you have to keep your windows closed.
There are no jobs here. Do not move here unless you have been transferred.
The downtown area used to be nice, but gangs have moved in and it is not safe to be downtown after 5:00. Kids hang around and intimidate you until you stop coming downtown.
The bus system is excellent.
I realize this is a negative review, but you are been forewarned. To say that this is one of the best retirement cities is ridiculous.

Do NOT move to Vegas - 12/23/2012
We have lived in Las Vegas for about 2 years now. I can honestly say I wish we had never moved here. It's not about a gambling problem.. We aren't very fond of heat..I know your thinking why cove to the desert. We thought we would try it out. When you visit here you don't get to see the. Beautiful areas here. Anthem Madeira canyon is on the west end I believe. Beautiful homes and neighborhoods. A lot of new homes. Crime is bad and drugs are horrible. People get run over weekly and killed here. It's sad. My complaint is the people here re terrible. Extremely rude. Now we do live in a high rise on the strip but no matter where you venture out to you won't find that many nice people. I'm not trying to be best friends with people it a simple hello or thank you would be nice. I've had my hands full with groceries and someone will be in front of me walking in and not hold the door. This happens way too much. A lot of young people here.. The only thing on their minds are what bar they will go to next and who they will take home. It's really sad just how self centered this generation has become. They drive 3 series bmw's and think they are hot stuff. We are looking to move to Spokane Washington. We love colder climates and sow and from what I've researched the whole state is so beautiful..if you like rude people move to Vegas..[Comment on this Posting]

The Beautiful Northwest at its Best - 10/15/2012
I read ALL of the comments about Spokane and had to write my own review of my beautiful city. Spokane has alot to offer--but even that is very subjective. It depends where you are in your journey,what you are looking for and why you want to be here.
I have lived in Spokane for 49 years--born, grew up, started off on my own, had my family, went to school, worked, stayed home, professional in emergency services and academia, a single parent, and now in grad school, an empty nester, looking for that "good career" in mid-life. I think I can offer a wide view of the area.
Spokane and its surrounding area's are BEAUTIFUL. Hot/warm summer, cool, brisk fall with beautiful foliage and canopied treed streets, cold winters, wet winters, mild-severe winters. Beautiful Spring. It's here. Over 76 lakes in the area, snow skiing and snow sports close by, hiking, camping--we are within 20 miles of the Idaho border for additional hunting, camping fishing, shooting, whatever outdoor sport you like, we have it, from expensive to free. Museums, civic theatre's, casino's, fairs, small business venues, local music and artists, many cafe-style bookstores, fine, 4-5 star hotels, mom and pop diners, many places to walk the puppies, or stay home and have a warm fire because MANY apartments have fireplaces as well as homes here.
Spokane has diversity--but one has to understand the majority of the population is white, unfortunately. We have many churches of different denominations, spiritual events and spiritual stores to purchase goodies--organic neighborhoods with street vendors indoors and out. Rural areas known for picking your own fruit--or not--some of the best and biggest organic peaches and nectarines I have ever seen. You can cut down your own holiday tree or purchase--ride a motorcycle on the freeway and still be reasonably safe--AND you get home from anywhere in the city in about 15-20 minutes.
We also boast many natural areas still within the city limits. County and state parks are just 5 minutes right outside of town if you want something close.
The best market for a career position here, I feel, are in the medical and emergency services fields. Alot of unskilled labor, government jobs, and administrative positions.
Spokane is "old money"--our Kirkland Cutter mansions boast the days of the great Railroad here and the grounds where they exist are pristine. Topography was designed with keeping alot of its naturalness so the south side of our town is hilly and provides a beautiful view to many. Trees literally canopy the streets. So beautiful!
Rentals are relatively inexpensive still comparatively. An 800 sq. ft, 2bd. apt. in a decent neighborhood should go for under $700. A 800-1100 sq. ft apartment in an older home can be had for around $600+. Because of our "old money", we have tons of huge houses that have been transformed into mega-apartments. These give the character of the late 1800's and early 1900's with the storage that goes with it. We have new and modern buildings as well. Homes are very inexpensive to purchase here with our minimum wage being as high as it is currently. (Over $9.00 per hr.).
Cons: The crime rate has risen. We have a new Chief of Police and a new Mayor who is doing well so far. Yes, there have been police involved shootings. Yes, we have meth and drugs. We have gangs. Are we over-ridden? NO. Are some area's not ok to walk in wearing expensive clothes with your expensive phone and your expensive watch and diamond rings? Yep. Ghetto's? No. Low income areas, middle income and upper all exist.
My answer to the former review slamming our police department? Be respectful on traffic stops--if the police have to come to your house for something that you did, do what they tell you to do. Pretty simple for the most part.
Con: Some of our streets are rutted--true. Con: We do have some fun clubs and excellent restaurants but we are NOT Seattle. We have excellent resources for low-income.
We have excellent community colleges (2) and top rated Universities (3) and at least 2 more with a little bit of driving. We have been hit by the economy and seen businesses close as well. However, this is an excellent place if you don't want to give your money to big box stores and want to instead support small business.
I hope this helps. Please contact our Chamber of Commerce and they can also email and mail information to you at www.greaterspokane.org.

Quality of Life - 10/11/2012
Spokane is a great place to live if you enjoy a small town feeling. It's impossible to get lost in Spokane. We have hot very dry summers and unpredictable but usually cold snowy winters. Good place if you enjoy 4 distinct seasons. Worst part of living in Spokane is there is little to do. Spokane is basically an island, surrounded by hundreds of miles of nothing until you come to the next substantial city,which is Seattle, making it difficult to drive out of town to an interesting city. Still it is a good place to raise a family if it's limitations are acceptable.[Comment on this Posting]

Parmesan-Onion Potato Packets Recipe
This delicious twist on the baked potato is great for summer cookouts because the potatoes can be added to the grill while the meat is cooking. The recipe is also an excellent take-along side dish because each potato is individually wrapped in foil. If needed, it's easy to double or triple the recipe.
- 1-1/2 pounds medium potatoes
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons onion soup mix
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1. Scrub potatoes; cut into 1-in. cubes. Place potatoes and water in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on high for 3-4 minutes or until crisp-tender, stirring once. Drain. Add the remaining ingredients; toss to coat.
- 2. Place on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 18 in. square). Fold foil around potato mixture and seal tightly.
- 3. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 8-10 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape. Yield: 5 servings.

Man accused of impersonating soldier sentenced to nearly 12 yearsStaff Writer | September 05,2013A convicted sex offender who impersonated a soldier from North Carolina while living in Vermont was sentenced to almost 12 years in jail today on four federal charges.
David Oswald III, 47, was sentenced in U.S. District Court in Rutland to 140 months in jail and was ordered to pay almost $53,000 in restitution to two health care providers in the state.
Judge Christina Reiss also imposed a lifetime of supervised release with special conditions for Oswald after he is released from jail.
Oswald, a former resident of Washington state, pleaded guilty earlier this year to federal charges of failing to register as a sex offender, health care fraud, being a felon in possession of a firearm and possession of child pornography.
He was arrested last year after an investigation by a Veterans Affairs special agent revealed Oswald's identity.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER The races might be new, but many of the faces are the same.

Last to Die (original 2012; edition 2013)

Work details
Last To Die by Tess Gerritsen (2012)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Anna Fields
This is the first Tess Gerritsen book I've read and I really liked it. I did not understand the history with Julian or Santano, or even what happened exactly between Jane and Maura but even so, I could still enjoy the story. Three children, Claire, Teddy and Will were the only survivors when their families were murdered and now, two years later, history repeats itself when their three foster families are murdered and they survive yet again. While Maura visits Julian at Evensong, a special school for trauma survivors, she meets Claire and Will and when she learns about the third, similar case, she recommends Jane that Teddy should be brought to the school also, in order to secure his safety. The school's location is so remote and the school itself seems like an impenetrable castle. But then someone breaks into Jane's car and other things happen, and it's clear the children might still be in danger. And what ties them together? It all comes clear in the end.. The plot is far more twisted and complicated than I could have guessed and I loved it, a great thriller.
The Evensong school, sheltered amid piney woods deep in Maine, is an exclusive school for orphans, but not just any orphans; it is for those children who have lost their families due to murder. At Evensong, run by the Mephisto society, the children are well-protected and are taught survival skills for the time when they return to the outside world. Within the school's population are 3 children who have been touched by tragedy twice in their short lives, the first when their families were killed and the second when their foster families met the same fate. Boston PD Detective Jane Rizolli and Chief Medical Examiner Laura Isles must find the connection between the three teenagers before the children meet the same violent fate.
I can't quite put my finger on why I didn't like this one quite as well as other Rizolli and Isles mysteries. Maybe it was a matter of timing more than anything else since I've had the book for quite awhile and made myself finally read it to get it off my shelf. Sometimes that's not the best reason to read a book. On the whole it was a fairly good mystery and I'm still a Gerritsen fan.
I libri della Gerritsen non deludono mai. Thriller veramente ben scritti.

Visiting sixteen-year-old "Rat" Perkins at isolated Evenson boarding school, Maura Isles is astonished to learn that all of his classmates are survivors of violence and are being instructed in scientific detective skills, a discovery that coincides with Jane Rizzoli's investigation into the murder of a boy's foster family.… (more)

Sonakshi Sinha has often faced criticism for her voluptuous frame but her brother, actor Luv, questions why other "more overweight" people are ignored.
"She (Sonakshi) is a hardworking girl. In our industry why do we only talk about few people and ignore those who are even more overweight," Luv said in a conversation with IANS.
He does not believe that a few extra inches are a "flaw".
"Is it compulsory that each and everyone should be stick thin and start fainting on sets? I appreciate beauty in all different forms.
"It's good to see the change...women who are not stick thin. Sona (Sonakshi) is actually thin compared to other actresses (without mentioning the names). The audience loves her and has accepted her the way she is," he added.
Luv debuted as an actor with "Sadiyaan", and will now be seen in Umesh Shukla's next.
Meanwhile Sonakshi, who has worked in the "Dabangg" series and films like "Son Of Sardaar", is gearing up for her next release "R... Rajkumar".

Enjoy the a glimer of my roots, the Darke County, Ohio countyside.
Creative lost soul wondering through existance searching for ever another sunrise to photograph. Another flower who's petals are a never ending source of beauty and amazement. Another heart that you can feel the life they endured. Welcome to my journey. See the world as I do through my eyes and in my mind. Play as I play, weep as I weep, and gasp as I gasp at all there is around us. And if nothing else Enjoy! ~ I hear and I forget ~ ~ I see and I remember ~ ~ I do and I understand ~

Everyone in the midwest better get their last fill tomorrow (sunday) cuz the temp is gonna drop here to the low 40's on monday and stay in the 40's all week.
I'm more concerned about the time change. Chances of any daylight for after work rides will be slim to none for me.
Yup. Add 20 minutes to your dressing times. Booties and turtle necks time ... the fun is about to begin.
they are saying some snow here for Wednesday.....
Trek Emonda SLR8 USA Built
Trek Stache 7 Its a hoot!
Specialized AWOL Mile Muncher
Specialized Fatboy Trail Miles of Smiles
Yep, pulled the roadie in for the winter today (trainer) . . .
The MTB is rideable all winter provided that there is no snow or ice on the roads.
I'll just layer up and keep going. I'm committed to riding year round except when there's ice on the roads or the temp with wind chill falls below 0.
Riding in the dark ,in the cold, in snow, and on ice is a lot of fun! Riding on ice over a frozen lake or swamp is fantastic. Low 40's is good riding weather.
All you need is the right gear.
I'm gonna try and ride right through ... although I reserve the right to ski when conditions are good.
This marks the time in the year where i start working my legs in the gym and running on tredmills...
sue me
A few years ago we had a dump of some 12 inches of powder. I did manage to ride my MTB through it just as long as the snow was at or below the front axle. Any deeper than that and I couldn't push the gear anymore. It was hilarious to see the reaction from my neighbors as I crept by while they shoveled.
"Hey! Howz it goin' ?? "
I don't mind the cold as long as it's dry. Black ice = bad! Today we have having some heavy wind gust, kind of sucks for the new LBS, they open Tuesday with a chance for snow.
Time to Ride...
black ice with studded tires = no problem
+1 on the studded tires. Get yourself a bombproof set of rims (old Mavic Open Pros w/ 32 holes are my winter choice) and throw on some knobbies and/or studs. Use as necessary.
Morning commute was fantastic. Temps in the low 20's. Light winds. Red-tail hawks checking me out....
Best time of the year!

In what could mark a paradigm shift in Indias foreign investment policy, the government is chalking out a new strategy to bolster overseas direct investments (ODI) by Indian firms. While Prime Minister Narendra Modi stressed on the Make in India slogan in his I-Day speech, in tune with the ruling dispensations nationalistic pride, ODI would be promoted as much as FDI inflows, official sources told FE.
The plan, according to the sources, includes ensuring easier access to credit from Indian banks, financial institutions (FIs) and Exim Bank of India for local companies aiming to branch out abroad. Domestic firms have complained of difficulties in getting international financing for their overseas expansion plans.
A proposal for an Overseas Investment Promotion and Protection Council, on the lines of the Foreign Investment Promotion Board, was also being considered, the sources added.

Engineer PCB Design.
Your question is not very clear but I think you are asking how to route on the Top of the board then chaneg to route on the bottom. You would need to add a via to change layers so whilst routing on the top try either a right click - Add Via or a double click to add a via and the Act and Alt layers will swap, a via is added and you are now routing on the bottom side.

I just received a most remarkable book, The Phaidon Atlas of Contemporary World Architecture, a monstrous tome that details over 1,000 buildings in almost 100 countries. What's equally remarkable is Phaidon's catalog, which lists full books about the works of specific archtects, from Le Corbusier to Richard Rogers and many more in between.
I'd love to read a book about the collective works of Charles Simonyi or even one of my architectural heros, Alex Bell.

This is a book about my travel to Portugal in August 2009. For 2 weeks I photographed the beautiful country and its people framed by their surrounding, be it doors, windows or blue tiles.
My travel took me to Braga, Douro valley, Guimaraes, Viana do Castelo, Porto, Sintra, Cascais and Lisbon.
A must have for anyone who loves this country or plan to travel to.

A stone-cold trolley at Park Street means "moderate" delays on the Green Line, the T says.
The T
The Herald reports Keolis estimates the T loses $35 million a year in unpaid commuter-rail fares and wants to spend $10 million on new gates at North, South and Back Bay stations. No word on how much is lost on overcrowded trains that conductors can't get through to check tickets.
The T itself, meanwhile, wants to hire private contractors to make sure people don't sneak on the back of Green Line trolleys.
The T managed to get the carcass of the Orange Line train removed somehow, but even the residual delays are still "moderate." As Adam Cyr, who got stuck in the maelstrom, reports:
45 minutes stuck at DTX because they can't figure out how to push a train out of the way from Chinatown.
The Riverside Line has degraded to "moderate" delays due to a trolley mistaking its tracks for the River Styx.
The lights went out at Tufts and Back Bay on the Orange Line this rush hour, slowing trains as riders stumbled in the dark. At least, as Joe Growhowski shows us, Back Bay had some natural light coming in from one end.
Possible good news for fans of old trolleys: The Dorchester Reporter reports MassDOT has included $9 million in a five-year capital plan for rehabbing the Mattapan High-Speed Line's PCC trolleys, rather than replacing them with buses or something.
The T and Keolis are not very happy with Amtrak today. In an "important" statement on the signal woes that knocked out or slowed service into and out of South Station (including Amtrak's), the local rail operators write: Read more.
UPDATE: Amtrak got the signals working again around 2 p.m.
Around 8:45 a.m., the T announced: "Due to a signal problem, South Side trains cannot arrive to/depart from South Station." Again.
The T blamed Amtrak for the problems. Again.
Frank Oglesby Jr. (you know, the "The next Red Line train to Ashmont is now approaching" guy) narrates this brief tour of the T's Operations Control Center on High Street.
Kanye Wes shows us a Commonwealth Avenue shut down by Boston University students supporting a bid by adjunct professors for higher pay, better working conditions.
Josh Wardell watched in amazement this morning as the warning lights came on where the train tracks cross Main Street in Cambridge and drivers said "screw that" and just kept on going.
It's "severe" delays on the Florida Sunshine line thanks to a dead train at Jackson Square.
From the MassDOT blog:
The MBTA expects thousands of extra riders for the 2016 Boston Marathon on Patriots' Day, Monday, April 18.
Customers are urged to take public transportation to and from the Marathon and are advised to check T-Alerts for the most up-to-date service information on the day of the race.
The folks at the Boston City Archives wonder if you can tell which transit line this was - and when the photo was taken. See it larger.
Updated, 1:20 p.m.
An Eversource power cable near Woodland station burst into flames, shorting out service on the D Line. The T is now busing passengers between Riverside and Newton Highlands.
WBZ reports the seared cable also means no service for some 3,800 Eversource customers in Newton.
Back in the old days, railroads used to use semaphores to signal train engineers whether they could go forward and how fast. You can still see one of these semaphores where the old Boston & Maine (now MBTA, natch) line to Fitchburg crosses Elm Street in downtown Waltham - mounted on a switching tower that sits next to a switch for what used to be a line to Watertown.
The signals were, of course, not very useful at night, so there were also bulbs to signal engineers: Read more.
A concerned, and probably disgusted, citizen requested a cleanup around 1 p.m. at the Roslindale Village commuter-rail stop:
There is a large beheaded rooster next to the commuter rail tracks at the pedestrian crossing.

For most cities the trash contract is usually the largest most expensive deal brokered at City Hall. And in Delray Beach a growing number of residents believe the city could save a lot of money with a new company doing the work. For nearly a decade Waste Management has been hauling trash in Delray Beach and the city pays them serious cash.[cleeng_content id="955043330″ description="Why stop now? It's just getting interesting!" price="0.99″ referral="0.10″][pwal id="14211118″ description=""]Now city leaders are talking about another 5 year lucrative deal with waste management but the inspector general's office and some watchdogs say not so fast and the contract should be put out for bid. So far that hasn't happened and some residents believe the city could get better rates with a different trash hauler. Mayor Woody McDuffie says he's open to all options. But the truth is it's been more than a decade since Delray Beach put their trash contract out for competitive bids. That's main reason the Palm Beach County Inspector General's Office is paying close attention.
The mayor says there's nothing to hide. Concerned citizens say its common sense to give every trash company who's interested a shot.

After hearing widespread complaints about its new parking rates, the city Thursday agreed to back off — a bit — but not in the downtown core where it will cost $4 an hour to park.
After hearing widespread complaints about its new parking rates, the city Thursday agreed to back off — a bit — but not in the downtown core where it will cost $4 an hour to park.
The new rates, to go into effect over the next two months, means Seattle will have one of the highest on-street parking rates in the country. Chicago is now $5 an hour, according to a national traffic consultant.
The city also plans to go ahead and make drivers feed the meter for an extra two hours — to 8 p.m. — in eight neighborhoods including downtown, Pioneer Square, Belltown, Capitol Hill, Chinatown/International District and the University District.
"Critics are not going to be happy, but we'll look at the data again in a few months," said Seattle City Councilmember Sally Bagshaw.

The city estimates that on-street parking will generate $35 million in 2011, up from $27 million last year.
In all, rates will decrease in 11 neighborhoods, including Belltown (from $2.50 to $2), and in the University District and Ballard (from $2 an hour to $1.50.)
And rates will rise in four neighborhoods (downtown, Pioneer Square, First Hill and Capitol Hill) and will stay the same in seven.
Pioneer Square got a small break. Instead of $4 an hour, the rate was reset to $3.50. But that may not satisfy some merchants who worry the neighborhood, already suffering from the sour economy, will lose customers.
"If they think raising parking is going to help business, they're crazy," said Ty Myers, owner of the Fenix Tattoo parlor in Pioneer Square.
Myers joined with others Wednesday to criticize the increase as well as the methodology used by the city in studying parking patterns. The department measured parking in November, and at peak hours of use, then adjusted the numbers.
The goal was to create one or two open spaces per block, but critics said not all blocks had an equal number of parking spaces. Earlier this week, the Downtown Seattle Association (DSA) asked the City Council to delay implementing the new rates because of faulty numbers.
Thursday, after the readjustments were announced, the association hinted it may not be satisfied. "We're still reviewing the city's revised data," said Jon Scholes, DSA vice president. "We still believe there's more work to be done."
Mayor Mike McGinn and the City Council agreed last fall during budget negotiations to move the city to a market-rate parking system. The goal was to increase the availability of on-street parking and to reduce auto emissions by decreasing the number of cars circling blocks in search of a space.
The city has said it will review the new rates within six months and see if they're working.
"This is new for Seattle and relatively new for the country. We're on the cutting edge of progressive parking management," Councilmember Tim Burgess told a forum on the parking issue Wednesday.

Which, if any, DI container does Stack Exchange use? Some highlights of the architecture can be seen here and here.
Meta Stack Exchange is where users like you discuss bugs, features, and support issues that affect the software powering all 157 Stack Exchange communities.
What is meta?
What is meta?
Here's how it works:
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
Stack Exchange runs on ASP.NET MVC3 - Does it use dependency injection, and if so, which container does it use?
We do not currently make specific use of a DI container. We try to keep things minimal, and only introduce complexity/abstractions if it solves a problem we actually have. We are also, however, very happy to refactor - so if/when we felt that this would be a beneficial thing, we'd very happily hack it in.
We do keep our code pretty DRY, particularly around the key object constructions, so this wouldn't necessarily be too tricky.

Just changed timing chain and realized why I was never able to adjust our eccentric. Took a hammer and screwdriver to get the thing out. Some oxidation/corrosion on the eccentric, and I guess the shell is carbon (late '07 frame). Cleaned it up, put it back together, considered lubrication, opted against, timing chain is very tight, and I still can't budge the eccentric.
1) How snugly should this type of eccentric fit?
2) How do you apply leverage to get it to tighten/loosen the chain?

Milwaukee Public Schools offers a wide array of choices. We invite you to learn more about the types as you look for a school that best fits your family!
Neighborhood schools accept children from the area surrounding the school before enrolling children from other areas. Neighborhood schools accept students who live outside the neighborhood but within the school's region, if seats are available. We recommend your neighborhood school, also known as an attendance-area school, as your first choice.
Neighborhood Specialty schools offer special programs or areas of study, such as the arts or math/science programming. These schools enroll students first from the neighborhood, then from the entire city if seats are available.
Citywide Specialty schools offer special programs or areas of study, such as the arts, International Baccalaureate, gifted and talented, Montessori or language immersion programming. Some Citywide Specialty schools offer preferences for students living within the school's neighborhood/attendance area. Ask the individual schools for more information.
Comprehensive middle schools and comprehensive high schools offer a wide variety of academic and extracurricular programming to serve their diverse student populations. These schools have attendance areas, but also accept students who live outside those areas and are interested in the programs each school offers.
Traditional schools offer a comprehensive academic curriculum with a full compliment of programming. Schools offer a solid, robust curriculum focused on building student competencies in core academic areas while also providing engaging extracurricular activities, resulting in a well-rounded, complete educational experience.
Charter schools are MPS schools which operate more independently than other schools within the MPS family. Some charter schools have their own enrollment process.
Alternative schools offer a path to success for students outside of a traditional school setting.
Partnership schools offer educational options for students identified as being at-risk of dropping out or those who are experiencing difficulty in a traditional school setting.
Contracted agency schools are operated by community partners to provide Head Start, kindergarten and limited elementary services.
MPS Head Start is offered at a variety of MPS schools and other sites throughout the city. Children must be 3- or 4-years-old on or before September 1 to qualify.
