About the Book
"A standout writer."
—Los Angeles Times Book Review
"[Dennis Lehane] deserves to be included among the most interesting and accomplished American novelists of any genre or category."
—Washington Post Book World
From Gone, Baby, Gone to Mystic River to Shutter Island to The Given Day, the phenomenal Dennis Lehane has proven himself to be one of the most versatile and exciting novelists working in America today—whether he's breaking new ground with uniquely inventive psychological suspense, redefining the detective story, or bringing a bygone era to life with sweeping and masterful historical fiction. He's back with Live by Night, an epic, unflinching tale of the making and unmaking of a gangster in the Prohibition Era of the Roaring Twenties. Meticulously researched and artfully told, Live by Night is the riveting story of one man's rise from Boston petty thief to the Gulf Coast's most successful rum runner, and it proves again that the accolades New York Times bestseller Lehane consistently receives are well deserved. He is indeed, "a master" (Philadelphia Inquirer) whose "true literary forefathers include John Steinbeck as well as Raymond Chandler" (Baltimore Sun). And, "Boy, does he know how to write" (Elmore Leonard).
Boston, 1926. The '20s are roaring. Liquor is flowing, bullets are flying, and one man sets out to make his mark on the world.
Prohibition has given rise to an endless network of underground distilleries, speakeasies, gangsters, and corrupt cops. Joe Coughlin, the youngest son of a prominent Boston police captain, has long since turned his back on his strict and proper upbringing. Now having graduated from a childhood of petty theft to a career in the pay of the city's most fearsome mobsters, Joe enjoys the spoils, thrills, and notoriety of being an outlaw.
Joe embarks on a dizzying journey up the ladder of organized crime that takes him from the flash of Jazz Age Boston to the sensual shimmer of Tampa's Latin Quarter to the sizzling streets of Cuba. At once a sweeping love story and a compelling saga of revenge, it is a spellbinding tour de force of betrayal and redemption, music and murder, that brings fully to life a bygone era when sin was cause for celebration and vice was a national virtue.

RING Ratings update: Tyson Fury seizes the throne
In a surefire candidate for Upset of the Year, a motivated man from the U.K. knocked the incumbent Klitschko off the pinnacle of the heavyweight division.
In a surefire candidate for Upset of the Year, a motivated man from the U.K. knocked the incumbent Klitschko off the pinnacle of the heavyweight division.
After his win over Miguel Cotto, Canelo Alvarez is the newest RING champion and the latest addition to the magazine's pound-for-pound list.
Fans share their thoughts on the Miguel Cotto-Canelo Alvarez matchup, Andre Ward's pound-for-pound placement, the USADA-Mayweather relationship, and much more in this week's Friday mailbag.
The pound-for-pound debate has raged since Sugar Ray Robinson's era. Who topped THE RING's Pound-for-Pound rankings since the list was introduced in 1989?
Roman Gonzalez and Gennady Golovkin showed why they're among the pound-for-pound best on Saturday but there's debate on where GGG ranks in the P4P Top 5.
RingTV contributor Mitch Abramson makes the case for Gennady Golovkin to top the pound-for-pound list after his eighth-round win over David Lemieux.
Roman "Chocolatito" Gonzalez waited patiently to be recognized as the world's finest pound for pound fighter and has also filled some very big shoes.
Flyweight champ Roman Gonzalez seems to relish his new role as the sport's pound-for-pound No. 1 boxer as well as Saturday's expected stern challenge from Brian Viloria.
With Roman "Chocolatito" 'Gonzalez now installed as the best fighter in the world, no one is more humble about it than the Nicaraguan flyweight himself.
Fans share their thoughts and questions on THE RING's Pound for Pound Rankings, the Quillin-Zerafa debacle, Floyd Mayweather's "IV-Gate" and welterweight mythical matchups, and much more in this week's Friday mailbag.
With Floyd Mayweather gone, heavyweight king Wladimir Klitschko has been one of the top names put forth by fans and media to inherit the pound-for-pound throne.
The "retirement" of Floyd Mayweather Jr. left a void at the top of the RING Pound-for-Pound list. It was filled by a small wonder.
Mere days away from Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Manny Pacquiao, potentially the biggest fight in recent history, Lee Groves looks back at the last pound-for-pound mega-fight between Pernell Whitaker and Julio Cesar Chavez.
Weigh-in results for flyweight champion and RING No. 9 pound for pound fighter Roman Gonzalez vs. Rocky Fuentes, and No. 3 junior lightweight Takashi Miura vs. Edgar Puerta. Photos by Naoki Fukuda.
Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer rates Danny Garcia as boxing's third-best fighter behind pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Andre Ward, and Garcia agrees.
Undefeated two-division titleholder Tim Bradley made a huge jump forward in THE RING's pound-for-pound rankings with his impressive split-decision victory over future hall of famer Juan Manuel Marquez on Saturday.
Floyd Mayweather outclassed Canelo Alvarez en route to a decision victory on Saturday that earned the future hall of famer THE RING's junior middleweight title. Mayweather, who also holds the magazine's welterweight title, is the first fighter since Joe Calzaghe to simultaneously hold two RING championships.
Fans give their two cents on the Floyd Mayweather-Saul Alvarez showdown, the 152-pound catchweight, and Carl Froch's pound-for-pound rating (or lack of in THE RING), plus lots of mythical matchups, in this week's Friday mailbag. Enjoy!
Fans provide questions and comments on tomorrow's Danny Garica-Zab Judah and Sergio Martinez-Martin Murray RING championship bouts; more feedback on Alvarez-Trout, Donaire-Rigondeaux and Fury-Cunningham, and other subjects in this week's Friday mailbag. Enjoy!
Fans bemoan the slow month of August, look forward to the Nonito Donaire-Toshiaki Nishioka showdown, ponder THE RING's pound-for-pound rankings, and wonder which U.S. Olympians will excel as pros.

Winner of the 2010 Open Championship, Oosthuizen's missed eagle-putt on the final hole last year deprived him of a play-off spot for the $1m jackpot at the co-sanctioned tournament.
The world number 12 confirmed his entry together with Ireland's Padraig Harrington (three Majors) and New Zealand's Michael Campbell (one Major) for the November 8-11 tournament.
The trio join a field spearheaded by world number one Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland, three-times winner Adam Scott of Australia and American Phil Mickelson.
For the past two seasons, Sentosa's Serapong and Tanjong Courses have been utilised for the tournament but this year only the former will be used.
Oosthuizen has enjoyed a solid season with victories in January's Africa Open, the Malaysian Open and a play-off loss to Bubba Watson at the US Masters, and he is hoping for more success as the Race to Dubai reaches a climax.
"I'm very happy with the season but it can always improve," said Oosthuizen, who lies sixth on the Race to Dubai, just over one million euros behind McIlroy.
"I'm still fighting. I want to get up in the world ranking - get to maybe sixth or seventh - and I've still got the Race to Dubai (in my sights).
"I know I'm quite a bit behind Rory still, but if I play well I've got a good shot. I need to get myself within probably 300,000 to 400,000 euros (before the final event) to have a real chance."

Positive wind hits Casual Market
September 23, 2009-- Casual Living,
The Chicago Casual Market mood is overwhelmingly positive and optimistic, although some say more cautious than in previous peak times.
Retailers appeared willing to try new vendors and arrived needing inventory for their stores. Some manufacturers said they had showroom visits from retailers who had never stopped in before.
Attendance is up 4% from last September, Jaclyn Kotzum, director of marketing for the Casual Furnishings Industry, reported to International Casual Furnishings Association members during an annual meeting early Tuesday. "A lot of manufacturers report they are having great traffic. It's a positive and upbeat show," she said.
Telescope was among the many manufacturers reporting exceptionally high traffic the first day of market.
"I've had more people in today than I've normally had during an entire show," Telescope rep Don Dilliplane said Monday night. "We came in with more appointments than ever before, and then had others add to it. It's been the best day I've ever had."
"It was phenomenal," said Henry Vanderminden, president of Telescope.
Doug Peppler of Agio noted the number of market attendees lined up for lunch in its showroom. "This show has been about price points more than anything else," he said. "We have by far more appointments than we've ever had. A lot of those are traditional furniture stores who have not been in the outdoor category for 10 to 15 years."
"It's been amazing," said Al Arad, president of Cast Classics.
Fred Ilse, president, Outdoor Lifestyle was just as happy. "Monday was a day like I haven't seen in years," he said.
"There is a sense of optimism again," said Cap Hendrix, president of Tropitone. "Dealers, manufacturers and suppliers are all coming to understand what the market is now about and how to adapt to it."
"We had twice as many appointments as last year," Mike Sosnowski, Kettler national sales manager said Tuesday afternoon. "We broke our first day record and today seems to be on target to break our second day record. A good percentage of these are new prospective customers."
"Our reps are really excited," said Teresa Buelin of Laneventure. "We have a lot of appointments, and everyone seems to be upbeat. We are really trying to fulfill the changing demands of retailers. This market we focused on re-merchandising our price points. With the economy the way that it is we are really working on our price points to be able to appeal to a larger market."
"Traffic was jumping for us on Monday, which is traditionally a travel day," said Diane LaCoursiere-Christensen of Acacia Home & Garden. "We are introducing Acacia Home & Garden's first domestically produced grouping, and we've already written orders on it. I think retailers are being drawn into our booth by all the bright colors we have up front."
Jennifer Mulholland of Rock Wood Casual was proudly displaying the industry's first real leather slipcover and cushion for outdoor use. She expects to expand use of the cured bull leather hide from Austria, made by the company that supplies Porche, to entire outdoor furniture lines and offer 40 colors. "This is the next big thing," she said.
Richard Frinier, renowned product designer who will be honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award tonight at Chicago's Union Square, was showing his expanding lines of luxury furnishings in the Century Leisure showroom. "We're hoping the economy will continue to turn in our favor," he said. "It needed to correct."
For their part, retailers were energetic and eager to see the 2010 line-up.
"It's a great show. I'm not hearing what manufacturers didn't do, I'm hearing what they did do," said Petey Fleischut, owner of Casual Marketplace.
"It's a great market," said retailer Karen Galindo of The Greenhouse Mall in Austin, Texas. "Retailers have clean inventory and are ready to do business."
Her associate Tracy Walfrom was equally optimistic. "2010 will be the rebound," she predicted. For now, she noted, "Manufacturers are more conservative with what they're doing. They took what they had and made expansions to lines. The manufacturers are tuned in that the consumers are demanding value."
Retailers took note of the vendors who have adapted lean manufacturing processes and in some cases lowered prices. "Manufacturers made concessions this year," said Mike Kapp of Taylor Creek, Green Bay, Wis.
Butch Wallace, Yard Art Patio and Fireplace, was interested in getting a close look at Treasure Garden's new 12x12 foot pavilion. "I've heard a lot of good things about it," he said.
Treasure Garden's wall-mounted umbrella, a conceptual product the manufacturer was testing that folds up and out of the way, drew Steven Hossack, Patio Enclosures, Macedonia, Ohio, into the showroom. Overall, Hossack said he is "very excited" about the upcoming season.
Susan Kiley, of Bay Breeze Patio, Destin, Fla., was another retailer pleased by the traffic and attitude found during the first two days of Market. "I like seeing so many warm bodies, which we didn't see at premarket," she said. "I also like all of the innovation I'm seeing in a year when I didn't expect to see a lot due to budget constraints."
Kiley was also excited about the variety and quality of product to be found on the 8th floor, a topic that drew raves from several retailers.
"There's a lot going on down there. Erwin & Sons, for example, has a new group that is spectacular," Kiley said.
"I think eight is fabulous. It's the best it's been in years, and I can't wait to get back down there," said Debbie Stegman, Patio and Hearth Shoppes, Dayton, Ohio.
Jerry Newton, president of Leader's Casual Furniture, Largo, Fla., was another fan of the 8th floor. "It looks prosperous," he said.
Retailers who came to market wondering what manufacturers would be offering in the way of support found numerous manufacturers with new quick ship and domestic warehousing programs. La-Z-Boy, for example, added both a domestic warehouse and custom cushion programs for 2010.
At Seaside Casual, there was increased interest in the durability and eco-friendly nature of its recycled resin.
"People who were hesitant in the past are now ready to make a jump," said Kat Carret, owner, adding that the company's quick ship program is an added bonus.

John Miles Named Fitch's Australian Head
Fitch Ratings has appointed a new head of day-to-day operations in Australia and New Zealand, John Miles, as it rides the credit wave Down Under.
"Australia and New Zealand are among the fastest growing credit markets in the Asia-Pacific region and we are confident of building on our success there under John's leadership," the ratings agency's Asia-Pacific head Brett Hemsley said.
Sydney-based Mr. Miles has 28 years' experience in Australian capital markets—15 of those at Fitch. He joined the ratings agency as a bank analyst in 1997 and has led Fitch's financial institutions team in Australia and New Zealand since 2005, broadening its coverage into insurance and international public finance.
Australia largely side-stepped the credit crisis that hammered other developed economies in recent times, thanks chiefly to demand from China for its huge deposits of iron ore and coal.
Mr. Miles takes over from Ben McCarthy, who was both the acting head of Australia and the head of structured finance for the Asia-Pacific region.
With the roles now split, Mr. McCarthy can devote his full attention to structured finance, which is growing robustly, Fitch said. Australian and New Zealand covered bond issuance is particularly strong, it said.
Australia's so-called "Big Four" banks—Australia and New Zealand Banking Group, Commonwealth Bank of Australia, National Australia Bank and Westpac Banking Corp.—have issued more than $26 billion in covered bonds since the government relaxed restrictions on the asset class last year, according to data from Dealogic.

From experience and from scouting around the internet and browsing the cosmetics shelves, I've noticed that "cleansing water" fall into 2 categories. One calls themselves "micellar cleansing water" and another calls itself just plain "cleansing water". Some mention in passing that it should be rinsed off (few do) and others say it is a no-rinse formula.
But it is this latter no-rinse formula that really captures the imagination of many. How wonderful it must be to avoid washing your face in the morning or evening? Just wipe on a cotton pad to "cleanse" your face and continue with your skincare. You don't even have to step into the bathroom or risk wetting the floor with your vigorous splashes of water in the sink. Yay!… or is it?
Most cleansing waters and micellar cleansing waters are stated to have a mild formula and are suitable for sensitive skin. They are usually a very liquid, water based product, that is basically like applying water on your skin. But they contain chemicals that help adhere to dirt and makeup on skin, which makes it easy to wipe off using a cotton pad. You can't do that with just mere water.
It is this ability to cleanse the skin that makes it a popular makeup remover these days. It does feel more gentle on skin and less drying than makeup removers of yore. But because it feels like water and is said to be so gentle and cleanses your skin so well, that we are also told that you don't have to rinse your face thereafter.
In some instances, I know people use this as their facial cleanser. They use a cotton pad to wipe the product on skin, then follow up with the rest of their skincare. Or, I've been told by people they use this as a toner. After regular cleansing, they wipe a cotton pad with cleansing water all over their skin and follow on with skincare.
When I ask them why they do so, the answer is usually that it's so gentle and it feels so refreshing. Also, many formula including the popular Bioderma brand says that you can. There's no need to rinse the product off, because it has already cleansed your skin.
I must say I'm not comfortable with this. So before I launch into my spiel, why don't you share your thoughts with me on this issue. Do you wash your face after using a micellar cleansing water, or is that your facial cleanse? Please don't feel embarrassed because I'm not an expert and this is just me talking based on my experience, and I am always open to hearing of other peoples' experiences 🙂

AUGUSTA, Ga.---A man who worked for the Medical College of Georgia for 20 years is dead after an apparent suicide jump.
40-year-old Keith Harris was pronounced dead this evening after he jumped from the four-story research building on Laney-Walker Boulevard.
MCG said tonight Harris worked in Facilities Management and was not on duty. The hospital said he had gone up on the roof with a friend. The friend became concerned and called 911.
Richmond County sheriff's deputies responded and reached the roof, but Harris jumped before they could talk with him.

Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) is a procedure used to treat coronary artery disease. Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the narrowing of the coronary arteries – the blood vessels that supply oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle. CAD is caused by a build-up of fatty material within the walls of the arteries. This build-up narrows the inside of the arteries, limiting the supply of oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle.
One way to treat the blocked or narrowed arteries is to bypass the blocked portion of the coronary artery with a piece of a healthy blood vessel from elsewhere in the body. Blood vessels, or grafts, used for the bypass procedure may be pieces of a vein from the legs or an artery in the chest. An artery from the wrist may also be used. One end of the graft is attached above the blockage and the other end is attached below the blockage. Blood is routed around, or bypasses, the blockage by going through the new graft to reach the heart muscle. This is called coronary artery bypass surgery.
Traditionally, to bypass the blocked coronary artery, a large incision is made in the chest and the heart is temporarily stopped so that the surgeon can perform the delicate procedure. To open the chest, the breastbone (sternum) is cut in half and spread apart. Once the heart is exposed, tubes are inserted into the heart so that the blood can be pumped through the body by a cardiopulmonary bypass machine (heart-lung machine). The bypass machine is necessary to pump blood while the heart is stopped and kept still in order for the surgeon to perform the bypass operation.
While the traditional "open heart" procedure is still commonly done and often preferred in many situations, less invasive techniques have been developed to bypass blocked coronary arteries. "Off-pump" procedures, in which the heart does not have to be stopped, were developed in the 1990's. Other minimally invasive procedures, such as keyhole surgery (performed through very small incisions) and robotic procedures (performed with the aid of a moving mechanical device), may be used.
Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) is used to treat a blockage or narrowing of one or more of the coronary arteries to restore the blood supply to the heart muscle.
Symptoms of coronary artery disease may include, but are not limited to:
Unfortunately, there may be no symptoms of early coronary artery disease, yet the disease will continue to progress until there's enough artery blockage to cause symptoms and problems. If the blood supply to the heart muscle continues to decrease as a result of increasing obstruction of a coronary artery, a heart attack may occur. If the blood flow can't be restored to the particular area of the heart muscle affected, the tissue dies.
There may be other reasons for your doctor to recommend CABG surgery.
Possible risks associated with coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) include, but are not limited to, the following:
There may be other risks depending on your specific medical condition. Be sure to discuss any concerns with your doctor prior to the procedure.
Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) requires a stay in a hospital. Procedure may vary depending on your condition and your doctor's practices.
Generally, CABG follows this process:
After the surgery, you may be taken to the recovery room before being taken to the intensive care unit (ICU) to be closely monitored. Or, you may be taken directly to the ICU from the operating room. You will be connected to machines that will constantly display your electrocardiogram (ECG) tracing, blood pressure, other pressure readings, breathing rate, and your oxygen level. Coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) requires an in-hospital stay of at least several days.
You will most likely have a tube in your throat to assist with breathing through a ventilator (breathing machine) until you are stable enough to breathe on your own. As you continue to wake up from the anesthesia and start to breathe on your own, the breathing machine will be adjusted to allow you to take over more of the breathing. When you are awake enough to breathe completely on your own and you are able to cough, the breathing tube will be removed. In most cases, the breathing tube is removed soon after the operation, usually the same day or by early the next morning. The stomach tube will also be removed at this time.
After the breathing tube is out, a nurse will help you cough and take deep breaths every two hours. This will be uncomfortable due to soreness, but it is extremely important that you do this in order to keep mucus from collecting in your lungs and possibly causing pneumonia. Your nurse will show you how to hug a pillow tightly against your chest while coughing to help ease the discomfort.
The surgical incision may be tender or sore for several days after a CABG procedure. Take a pain reliever for soreness as recommended by your doctor. Aspirin or certain other pain medications may increase the chance of bleeding. Be sure to take only recommended medications.
You may be on special IV drips to help your blood pressure and your heart, and to control any problems with bleeding. As your condition stabilizes, these drips will be gradually decreased and turned off.
Once the breathing and stomach tubes have been removed and you are stable, you may start to drink liquids. Your diet may be gradually advanced to more solid foods as you are able to tolerate them.
When your doctor determines that you are ready, you will be moved from the ICU to a post-surgical nursing unit. Your recovery will continue there. Your activity will be gradually increased as you get out of bed and walk around for longer periods. You can eat solid foods as soon as you can tolerate them.
Arrangements will be made for you to go home and a follow-up visit with your doctor will be scheduled.
Once you are home, it will be important to keep the surgical area clean and dry. Your doctor will give you specific bathing instructions. The sutures or surgical staples will be removed during a follow-up office visit, if they were not removed before leaving the hospital.
You should not drive until your doctor tells you to. Other activity restrictions may apply.
Notify your doctor if you have any of the following:
Your doctor may give you additional or alternate instructions after the procedure, depending on your particular situation.
Before you agree to the test or the procedure make sure you know:

Checkers - Free
By GASP Mobile Games Inc
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Checkers played by two opponents, on opposite sides of a board, alternating moves. In a single player mode, person is always down (blue) regardless of who is moving first. Pieces move diagonally on the dark squares and opponents' pieces are captured by jumping over them to an unoccupied square. Capturing is mandatory. When multiple capture sequence is available, player may choose the sequence but have to make all available captures. When men reach the farthest row forward, they become kings, enabling them to move backwards.
There are three different modes:
- English Draughts - pieces can't jump back and Kings can only move one stop in either direction.
- Flying Kings - pieces can't jump back but Kings can can move as far as they want along unblocked diagonals (also known as Spanish, Czech, Argentinian, Thai, Turkish).
- International - pieces can jump back and Kings can can move as far as they want along unblocked diagonals (also known as Brazilian, Russian shashki, Pool checkers).
Pieces are moved by first selecting (tap) the piece to move and then selecting (tap) the cell to move to. If there is only one available move for selected piece, it will move by automatically (no second tap needed). Alternatively you can tap on the destination without selecting the piece (if only one piece can reach it). Normally blocks are black, however blocks current player can move to are colored in dark green. Selected piece is marked by bright green border. Use menu (top-right corner) to change difficulty, game type or check statistics.

AbstractThis paper surveys the developments of last 10 years in the area of vision based target tracking for autonomous vehicles navigation. First, the motivations and applications of using vision based target tracking for autonomous vehicles navigation are presented in the introduction section. It can be concluded that it is very necessary to develop robust visual target tracking based navigation algorithms for the broad applications of autonomous vehicles. Then this paper reviews the recent techniques in three different categories: vision based target tracking for the applications of land, underwater and aerial vehicles navigation. Next, the increasing trends of using data fusion for visual target tracking based autonomous vehicles navigation are discussed. Through data fusion the tracking performance is improved and becomes more robust. Based on the review, the remaining research challenges are summarized and future research directions are investigated.

The New York Yankees Through the Eyes Of Yogi Berra: Unveiled On Broadway
Sequestered in midtown Manhattan's Circle in the Square Theater, sits a massive time travel machine, unbeknownst to many above ground. More shocking than that, it's patriarchal New York Yankees catcher Yogi Berra that operates it. Okay, it's really actor Peter Scolari portraying Berra in the new American play Bronx Bombers, but the show is so nostalgic that it might as well be like stepping back in time. In fact, this show is dripping in reminiscence to the point where audience members will need the 15-minute intermission to dry off just so they can absorb the second half of the show. However, leading fans down memory lane is only one side of the coin, as co-producers Fran Kirmser and Tony Ponturo explain their ulterior motive.
"Bronx Bombers is the third in a sports series for the stage, conceived by creative producer [Fran] Kirmser," Ponturo clarified.
"In an effort to shed some context on the motivation behind the series and the timing of this last play, Ponturo affirmed, "it's to tell stories of inspiration through the theater in response and reaction to the 2008 financial trash. Our first show, Lombardi, was about great leadership. The second production, Magic/Bird, was about rivalry and friendship. Bronx Bombers looks at what makes a great team."
People endlessly search for the meaning of what makes a great team, but it turns out that the secret has been carefully constructed in a space beneath 50th Street, wedged in between Broadway and Eight Avenue, just one escalator ride down.
Ticketholders' decent into a man cave of a lobby are greeted by a sizeable photo—too big to miss—of Mickey Mantle, as if to serve as a warm welcome to time travelers. It is here that generations of fans mingle among legends of their time, or gaze upon a period that they've only heard of or read about. The tangible melting pot of memorabilia involving the Mick, Elston Howard, Joe DiMaggio, Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth, Thurman Munson, Billy Martin, Reggie Jackson, Derek Jeter and Yogi, can't be ignored.
For the overwhelmed, there's a convenient row of the uncomfortable, but familiar seats from the old Yankee Stadium along the wall of the lobby, just adjacent to the theater doors.
However, the show's reception area is just the appetizer.
Writer and Director, Eric Simonson, somersaults audiences right into June 19, 1977—recreating a meeting inside a Sheraton Hotel room between Berra, Munson, Martin and Jackson. This of course was the day after Martin famously pulled Jackson from the game—on National TV—against the rival Boston Red Sox for "loafing" after a ball that was hit in his direction in right field.
Scolari's interpretation of Berra's quirky but effective insight, as well as his delivery of infamous Yogi-isms, is evident early and throughtout. The actor talked about what went into learning how to play the beloved catcher-turned-coach.
"There was lots of reading and fortunately lots of video that I could watch of Yogi, not just on the field but in all the commercials and interviews he has done. We also sat and watched part of a playoff game together this [past] fall, and that interaction is priceless."
The real experience for spectators starts to build later in the show when Yogi's wife Carmen—played by Scolari's real wife Tracy Shayne—pleads with Berra to not take over as manager if George Steinbrenner decides to fire Billy in the aftermath of what happened in Boston.
Embracing the anything goes approach; the next sequence of events occur in an unforgettable dining room setting that could only be scripted. "The scene is played out as a dream to allow for all of the greats to be in one room and to express how individuals come together to make a great team," Kirmser said.
Following this Ruthian scene, fast forward to Berra and Jeter sharing in a moment in the bowels of the old Stadium, and tie a bow on this latest edition of Yankees Tales.
The play officially opens on February 6, and as Yogi once said, "if you see a fork in the road, take it."

Since updating Jetpack a little while ago the contact form on my customer's website has stopped sending emails.
I have three forms one in the widget area on the home page here and two more here and here.
However, ONLY the home page contact form works despite me copying the text from one to the other:
[contact-form email@example.com' subject='CALLBACK REQUEST from the bizniz website'][contact-field label='Name' type='name' required='1'/][contact-field label='Phone' type='text' required='1'/][contact-field label='What time shall we call?' type='select' options='8am-9am,9am-11am,11am-1pm,1pm-3pm,3pm-5pm,5pm-7pm'/][/contact-form]
When I create a new user it sends emails out fine.
I tried using WP-Mail-SMTP but kept getting error 111 from the SMTP Server no matter what settings I tried (the website is hosted with 1and1).
I have other wordpress websites using Jetpack & Contact Form on the same hosted environ and they work fine!
I suspect the update has caused a problem but I just don't know how to fix it. Can anyone help?!

First they damaged an oil filter when they changed the oil on my husband's car, causing a massive oil leak that we thankfully caught in time.
Then I got a new car. The first time I brought the car in (5000 miles) the guys made a big deal about how nice the car was and the brand-new car smell. When I picked the car up, it had grease all over the interior, that has not come off to this day. The next time I took the car in, grease on the leather door trim again. Finally, I took my car in for a third time, and they punched a hole in my oil filter causing another massive oil leak.
I took the car into the honda dealership and they said that it looked like Merchants had tried to force an ill-fitted filter onto the car, and that they probably did not use the appropriate wrench. Well, I have given them enough chances and will not be returning. We are just lucky that we caught the oil leaks before they caused damage to our cars.

Michael Eakman owes us $6,000 since July '09.
Michael and Anita Eakman hired us to bring 20 models bodypainted to the Aces & Angels Celebrity Poker Tournament on July 11, 2009 hosted by the Kardashian family at the Playboy Mansion. All our services were completed and he was pleased, he thanked us for our efforts and work and rewarded us by ripping us off like he has everyone else.
These two have no respect or consideration for contracts or trademark and copyrights. They are using Neyrot photographs without permission and inspite of us expressly asking them not to. For 6 months, we have been chasing Michael and Anita in order to get them to do what is right and pay their debts to settle this account. They have done nothing buy LIE and it is clear that they have no intention of paying or of discontinuing this scam.
We urge you to be very cautious in any dealings with the Eakman's as they are dishonest and untrustworthy as you clearly can see by a quick google search of Michael Eakman will reveal a number of similiar complaints as the Eakman's are established scam artists. [continued below]....
Since July, Michael has planned 2 more Aces & Angels events as well as Golf Gone Wild and we recommend models and sponsor's be weary of having any association with the Eakman's.
We will be reporting them to the proper authorities.

The service is accessed by mobile phone texting. Since my wife was receiving unsolicited texts on her phone and simply deleting them she thought nothing of it until we noticed the suspicious charges on this and last months bill. I texted a STOP message to the company and then called their customer service.
A person in India gave me the usual "sorry about that you idiot" response in as much as they claim that in order to signup for the service one must resend to their text with a return text including a pin number. Since neither my wife nor I even have pre-paid texting service on our phone it is not possible that ever happened.
The company is sticking by their position that we voluntarily signed up for the service based on records specific to their company. In other words, we are obviously lying and we can go to hell.
AT&T has been kind enough to refund our money, which was a nominal amount. Given that our normal bill is many pages long it is possible we could have continued this scam for many months without realizing it. This company is essentially stealing from people and sighting their own records as evidence contradicting the consumer's denials.

Thank you all for those advices.
I made an [edit] to my questions : If I removed my tape deck, I could find the space for a tuve/valve headphones amp ; my budget could climb up to 400 euros --> new questions...
I that case, would a tube headphone amp be better paired with the K701 than the recommanded solid state amps ? If yes, wich models (in my budget span) would you recommand ?
I saw a second hand Little Dot MarkIII on a french forum. What would you think about that combination ? Wouldn't it be overkill for a K701 ? Would it be better than O2 ?
I think That SS are usualy better with K70X , for 411€ you could get the Lake People G103-S + K701 . (at Thomann.de)
I don't have any K702 now ... ANV was returned .
After reading a lot, I begin do doubt between K701 and HD650.
I will try to compare them in a store (unfortunatly, the K701 can't be found anymore, it will be Q701 vs HD650).
I'll also try the Micromega Myzik headphones amplifier (solid state)...

Q701 and LDmk3 is fine....LDmkivSE would be better.

I have both the 650, the K701 and Q701. For classical music with a decent amp, the K or Q701 is MUCH better than the 650. The 650 does not reveal the individual notes and instruments any where close to what you will get with either 701. The difference between the K and Q701 is not significant...I'd get whichever was less expensive and use the extra money for a better amp. Solid State Amp is fine. The O2 would make a good starter amp. Both the 650 but especially the 701's benefit from better amps. The 650's are more musical and would be better for rock but for any music where you want to hear each note, they can't compete and actually make the music sound dead compared to the 701.
Best off luck to you!

In my experience I found the solid state amps to fit better in term of sound resolution. The V-100 can fit if you're looking for a warmer SS amp. Unfortunately I didn't had the chance to check out the G-100/103.
Thank you for all these advices.
The Micromega Myzic being a new release, I'm affraid no one could compare it with the Lake People G103-S (I only red one review, in french, in which the Micromega is rated better than the Lake People G100).
The V100 is far above my budget.

What about V90? It shouden't be much of a diference I guess and is 200 euro cheaper. I own the V100 for just a couple of days now, but I like it a lot.
BTW, as I am weak , I just ordered the Q701, so in a couple of days I can tell you the difference between the HD650 and Q701 first hand
Best price for V90 is 400 euros... above my budget (G103-s only 190 euros).
i could try both the HD650 and Q701, pared with the Micromega Myzic. To my ears, the Sennheise HD650 seemed darker, with less details and soundstage, but with more bass than the Q701. The Myzic is nice, but I don't know if the bass rendering would be better with Q701 + Lake People GS-103S ou Matrix M-Stage (in my budget, but couldn't try them) ?

I'm very happy with my K702s and Objective 2 amp. I highly suggest it, great quality for the price
My final choice : Q701 + Micromega Myzik headphone amp + Monster 350i cable (and it ended by becoming a 470 € budget...).
I'm burning in the Q701, and will get the Myzik next week.
Thanks to all whose advices helped me to choose :)
