Warming scientists admit: We exaggerate on purpose
Andrew Bolt
–, Tuesday, June, 12, 2007, (2:12pm)
Gary Taubes, in Science magazine, says scientists challenge that always shonky idea that global warming would bring terrible diseases:
The idea, as proposed by a handful of public health researchers, is that global warming and the attendant climatic extremes of floods and droughts, storms and heat waves, may play havoc with public health. As the heat rises, hundreds of thousands may die yearly from heat-related ailments, while disease vectors and their pathogens may be redistributed far and wide with apocalyptic results. "To the layman," wrote Harvard physician Paul Epstein in The Washington Post, "it means a global spread of infections."
Epstein and others have predicted that deaths from malaria may increase by a million a year; that malaria, dengue, and yellow fever may move north into the United States and Europe; that cholera epidemics may intensify; and that emerging diseases such as hantavirus and Ebola may run rampant. Already, they say, bursts of warming from short-lived climate shifts like the Pacific warming called El Ni±o may have triggered disease outbreaks that offer an ominous preview of what is to come…
These predictions are getting renewed attention with the approach of the December climate change summit in Kyoto, Japan, and leading infectious-disease experts have taken to criticizing them sharply. Duane Gubler, for instance, director of the division of vector-borne infectious diseases at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), calls the prognostications "gloom and doom" speculations based on "soft data." Johns Hopkins epidemiologist D. A. Henderson, who led the international smallpox eradication program from 1966 to 1977, says they are based on "a lot of simplistic thinking, which seems to ignore the fact that as climate changes, man changes as well." Henderson, Gubler, and others argue that breakdowns in public health rather than climate shifts are to blame for the recent disease outbreaks--and that public health measures will be far more important than climate in future disease patterns.
The research came a bit too late to stop unprincipled politicians and journalists from repeating the old we'-re-all-going-to-die schtick, though. It suits their agendas too well.
And which kind of politicians still peddle this panic?
Mr RUDD: ....Given that CSIRO states that a three degree rise will result in the decimation of the Great Barrier Reef and the dengue fever transmission zone reaching Brisbane and possibly Sydney, what exactly did you mean when you said that Australians would be less comfortable?
So how did scientists come to make so many peer-reviewed wild predictions of plagues caused by global warming?
Taubes says it was deliberate, and for your own "good":
Many of the researchers behind the dire predictions concede that the scenarios are speculative. But they say their projections play a useful role in consciousness raising. "What it does is serve notice on us; we need to be aware we're tinkering with fundamentals, and there could be a range of consequences for human health," says Anthony McMichael of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
This unprincipled hyping of fears by scientists for publicity reasons has been excused in the past by other global warming cultists, too:
Professor Stephen Schneider, global warming guru at Stanford University. ... pump(ed) away: "We cannot dismiss the possibility of potentially catastrophic outliers and that includes Greenland and West Antarctica (ice sheets breaking up), massive species extinctions, intensified hurricanes and all those things. There's at least a 10 per cent chance of that . . . My God, that's Russian roulette with a Luger."
Bang! Just what the Doctor Doom ordered. And no wonder, for Schneider is, like Flannery, just the man for this kind of job, having said in 1996 that scientists were ethically bound to "in effect" tell the truth, but . . .
But? Er, yes. But "on the other hand, we are not just scientists but human beings" who wanted to "capture the public's imagination" on this awful climate change.
"So," admitted Schneider, "we have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramatic statements, and make little mention of any doubts we might have."
One day all the charlatans, scare-mongers and assorted scientists who decided to tell lies for a green cause will be held to account. I suspect that shaming day is coming faster than many realise.

I've removed a "now" the a reader below notes I should not have included.
Have Your Say
I'm sick of people who say they understand global warming better because they have a science degree. I know BS when I hear it. Lock them up.

Gary Taubes has done some terrific exposes of shoddy science in the past. His 1998 article for the American Association for the Advancement of Science The (Political) Science of Salt showed how hysteria over salt in food resulted in the demonisation of a harmless, tasty condiment. You can see similar bad science and irresponsible political meddling at work in the global warming debate.
Since Taubes' salt article I have routinely added just as much salt as I like to food, which is quite a bit. Not only is the taste is improved but I get the health benefits of increased dietary salt. There is no downside.

Vector-born diseases are primarily poverty driven and are easily controlled by modern medicines, building techniques and pesticides. The temperature connection is deeply simplistic. Malaria was once present in Europe all the way into the Arctic Circle. One of the largest outbreaks was in Archangel (64° 32′ 0″ N) in Russia. Oliver Cromwell died of malaria contracted during the campaign in Ireland.
AGW fanatics have been able to get away with their campaign of disinformation because a lot of lay people think of those diseases as uniquely tropical for a reason that affluent European and Northern American countries have eliminated them years ago. Good to see journals like Science finally trying to set things straight.
Will this mean an apology to Paul Reiter, who has been arguing this exact point for years only to be vilified by the enviro-mentalists?

Should it be considered how much of the PRESENT 'disease and pestilence' is directly due to the 'climate musings' of the 'greenhouse platform of the past ~30 years (and the Policy Intertia made by 'its' demands), rather than actual changes to Climate?
With near half of the Present World Human Population 'held back' and already suffering from such 'disease'?
With this Populations situation seen directly due to a paucity in provisioning of Public Health services adequate to the regional Population?
With this Populations situation noticed as without persistent Water supply and distribution, along with Sewerage Treatment for ~30 years?
With Poverty within this Population, that 2 Billion existing on ~$1 per day as example, due to lacking Work, and Places to conduct such Work?
With all these Situation due to the lacking of suitable supplies of the Electricity to power the Technological solution otherwise taken fir granted by those platforming such 'climate dooms' scenarios?
Then to notice those same few, those platforming such 'climate dooms' scenarios, cannot proffer 'solutions' from within the Ideology base of 'their' Belief and Opinions!
Then realise these same few STILL demand otherwise practical solutions currently should not be used!
Even as I dislike concepts and actions attached to Processes of State Execution generally, perhaps executing some few platforming of such 'climate dooms' scenarios, to save Billions of People, is justifiable?
Even as I dislike recalling such, but 'recently seen' where Individuals hanged for taking actions resulting in fewer deaths, and after trial in International Courts.
Even as I dislike mentioning such...might seizing Fiscal Assets gained from 'dealing in' such platforming of 'climate doom' scenarios be sufficient to remove the 'gilded edges' of the 'climate pie'? Sufficient then perhaps to quieten then 'the frenzy'?

Andrew - "One day all the charlatans, scare-mongers and assorted scientists who decided to tell lies for a green cause will be held to account. I suspect that shaming day is coming faster than many realise."
Does the converse also apply? Do we get to shame deniers that prevented early action on climate change. Do the paid skeptics that told lies for their fossil fuel masters also get held to account?
You have one huge advantage. The best possible outcome is that AGW IS a load of rubbish and nothing happens. That would be really good.
If the worst predictions of 'scare-mongers', as you term them, come to pass then there will not be much of society left in a condition to do the public shaming that would be required.
So for you it is a win-win situation in the shaming stakes. If you are right then we will be 'shamed'. If you are wrong then there will be no-one in a position to do the shaming of you, as we will be too busy trying to survive.

Maybe it is good to exaggerate for a cause.
There is a frightening development in the world that people are missing in the debate and that is the effect of the air guitar. http://www.airguitarworldchampionships.com/EN/agwc-network.html
Surely it is no coincidence that since the popularity of the air guitar in the past decade we have had melting ice caps, melting mountains, rising oceans and the onset of the plague.
About time the blood hounds in the media investigated the dangers of the AG on GW/CC.

More evidence of the growing trend, mainly by the left, to treat the truth as an optional extra to be ignored or refuted if it does not fit the favoured agenda. Unjustified intellectual snobbery, arrogance and intolerance help fuel this mindset.

Wouldn't that spoil the party, Peter?

Worth a try.

From an interview I saw yesterday on TV "the scare them to death" approach is now having some bad effects on the kids in our schools. The rise of anxiety levels amongst school kids has been directly related to their perception of climate change and the hyped up consequences of this - death and destruction of their world and their future.

Ender, you sound remarkably like a religious zealot espousing Hell and that unbelievers will go to it!
I have had the exact same arguments come from religious nutters telling me that if I am wrong then I will go to Hell! Everlasting Damnation! So therefore, QED I should believe in God and Jesus so that I don't accidentally end up in Hell. They tell me to think of it as an insurance policy!
So tell me, which part of your argument is different from those of a religious nutter?

He's not suggesting that the fat cats working directly or on contract to the United Nations on Global Warming did a "love" job?
Paranoia about the oil companies is getting a bit passe and Enders old 33 1/3 LP is starting to pall.
Tue 12 Jun 07 (05:25pm)
Andrew - "Gary Taubes, in Science magazine, says scientists now challenge that always shonky idea that global warming would bring terrible diseases:"
Why is this headlined 'NOW' challenge. The article you are citing is from 1997, over 10 years ago. This is not recent? Whats the story?
You possibly could have read the abstract of an article citing this one:
"Global Change and Human Vulnerability to Vector-Borne Diseases
Robert W. Sutherst*
CSIRO Entomology, Indooroopilly, Queensland, Australia 4068
Global change includes climate change and climate variability, land use, water storage and irrigation, human population growth and urbanization, trade and travel, and chemical pollution. Impacts on vector-borne diseases, including malaria, dengue fever, infections by other arboviruses, schistosomiasis, trypanosomiasis, onchocerciasis, and leishmaniasis are reviewed. While climate change is global in nature and poses unknown future risks to humans and natural ecosystems, other local changes are occurring more rapidly on a global scale and are having significant effects on vector-borne diseases."
The problem is that if society is pressured from climate change then there is a significant risk of the public health system breaking down in some areas and allowing some of the vectors to spread again. All the effects of climate change are not directly obvious.
Tue 12 Jun 07 (05:37pm)
Stay strong, Ender, so you - alone if need be - can shame us all if we are wrong.

How to make a claim on multiple health policies
October 22, 2013
Sanjeev Sinha , ECONOMICTIMES.COM
Rajat Shah recently faced a tricky situation of reduced claim settlement in spite of having two health insurance policies. The poor guy had taken two health policies for getting adequate coverage, but he was not aware that both the insurers (new and existing) needed to be informed about the other policy. Like Rajat many people are not aware about the proper disclosure of the existing health covers and, therefore, more often than not face similar issues. In fact, one must be aware of the...

That does not mean, of course, that you can claim reimbursement for any medical tests undertaken or routine...

Exclusion and sub-limits in a health insurance policy typically form the bone of contention between a health insurer and the insured. The best way to deal with the situation is to carefully go through the policy document when it arrives and not when your claim is rejected. Being aware of what your policy does not cover is as important as knowing what it does. Increasingly, insurers are also imposing limits on room rent and operation theatre charges, even if the total claim...

Coming Soon
The Billy Rice Band is a Florida-based event entertainment band that performs at corporate events, festivals, weddings, charity galas, and anywhere else there is a rockin party to be had. Specializing in classic rock, country, soul and pop music with a very current, modern edge.
Soul Singer Lauren Mitchell Follows her Musical Heart
"My first solo singing performance happened in church!" recalls Lauren Mitchell, a woman who, in only a few short years, has crafted a singular, unmistakable voice in the world of blues. "I'd been a member of the chorus for productions, but performing in my grandparent's church was the first time I stood on my own and opened my mouth to sing for an audience."
John Michael Montgomery has turned an uncanny ability to relate to fans into one of country music's most storied careers. Behind the string of hit records, the roomful of awards and the critical and fan accolades that have defined his phenomenal success lies a connection that goes beyond his undeniable talent and his proven knack for picking hits. Since the days when "Life's A Dance" turned him from an unknown artist into a national star, John Michael's rich baritone has carried that most important of assets--believability. Few artists in any genre sing with more heart than this handsome Kentucky-born artist.
The Mitch Clark Band has spent the last decade rocking Southwest Florida with their high energy funky blues and rock & roll. Mitch's edgy guitar licks and smoky, soulful vocals, along with his star studded 7 piece horn band delivers an astonishing performance that always leaves you wanting more. A dynamic show that is a sure bet to entertain young and old alike!
Born and raised on the south side of Chicago by his Grandmother; he was given his childhood nickname, Biscuit, after always being in the kitchen and underfoot while she was trying to cook. Growing up at Grandma's house also gave Biscuit his love and appreciation for music, as gospel and soul were played in the home on a regular basis.
Jah Movement Reggae Band is "The Movement" bringing you the best top 40 Funk, Soul, R&B, Hip Hop, Pop, Reggae, Dancehall, Soca, and Calypso DANCE MUSIC, by some of the best artists around the world. From the brains of former well-known Democracy Reggae Band Lead Singer, Damie Caines, he decided to branch out from his tradition and start a fresh new band with the very talented and well know Soul Diva, Shantel Norman. Jah Movement is NOT your ordinary reggae band. They perform hits from early 80s to now. All of their musicians have had the opportunity to play locally and nationally with many celebrities. They are guaranteed to make you feel good, that you would want to jump out of your seats and dance.
Made up of all local boys and Manatee county natives, (Jody Britt guitar /vocals, Josh Davis bass/ vocals, Danny Fox guitar/vocals and Casey Rupert drums) The Boss Hawg Band burst onto the local music scene in the summer of 2009, bringing to audiences their unique blend of screaming guitars, thunderous drums and down home country, hard rock, southern fried boogie sounds. Although they do not label themselves as a "southern rock" band, it's hard to deny their southern roots, "we are just a rock and roll band from the south…when you are born here, your daddy was born here, your granddaddy's granddaddy was born here, its just in your blood and it comes out in your music, we don't need any labels or categories for that".
In retrospect of looking back over the past twenty years, R&B Superstar JOE Thomas crosses BRIDGES. The crooner's new Album clearly defines his new outlook on life's relationships and where they have taken him. Why "BRIDGES"?
"We build them, cross them, burn them, then soon realize how much we need them" - JOE
"Relationships are Bridges and at some point in life we must take full responsibility for where we have allowed those relationships to take us. Most important, what relationships or BRIDGES are we building, crossing into or burning?"
Every now and then an artist bursts onto the scene, changing the rules and challenging the status quo. Eric Darius is one of those artists fearlessly pushing all musical boundaries. He is one of the most exciting musicians to enter the Contemporary Jazz scene in the last decade. His explosive arrival as a recording artist at the age of 17 caused a frenzy worldwide! Now, with six critically acclaimed albums under his belt, a Number One hit single, and Seven Top 10 radio hits on Nielsen's R&R/Billboard Contemporary Jazz Charts, international recording artist, Eric Darius, is on the verge of superstardom. Prophetically hailed Debut Artist of the Year by Smooth Jazz News in 2004, Eric has shared the stage with innumerable world renown, Grammy Award-winning artists, such as Prince, Jamie Foxx, Mary J. Blige, David Foster, Carlos Santana, Babyface, Wynton Marsalis & George Benson, just to name a few. His music innovatively crosses over all music boundaries from Jazz, R&B, Hip-Hop, to Pop, creating a very distinctive, fresh sound and approach that is uniquely his own.
NuJazz is a contemporary/smooth jazz band based in the Sarasota/Bradenton area that is made up of Dr. Melvin Price on soprano, alto, and tenor sax, Eric Enfield on keys, Steve Rand on acoustic and electric guitars, Louis Robison on percussion, Ron Ross on bass and Cory Ross on drums.
The Life Of The Party Band is much more than a group of talented musicians & performers, it's a statement of complete MUSICAL FREEDOM! We pride ourselves on being a highly versatile unit of musicians able to adapt to any party crowd. With each show we captivate our audience through engaging live music & an encouragement to dance, chill, and enjoy life! We're a Rnb Party Band that plays everything including Top 40, Hip Hop, Blues, Motown, Funk, Reggae, Soul, & Neo Soul. We Look Forward to Jamming With You Soon!!

When I set the default width the plugin ignores that and shows the video with 100% dimensions.

I guess they don't care about this issue, huh?
When I copied and pasted their sample code, their video ran on my site. I copied code exactly and just substituted my video code. It worked. Both videos played.
But when I deleted their sample video from my page, my all of a sudden my video didn't show - only code showed. Also, copy and pasting exact code to another page didn't wok either.'

I spoke with phdsteve. He says Jonas is the best pick ever. Rapcast soon.
Follow @CornerSniper
· By Zarar Siddiqi (@CornerSniper)
false. this pisses on every raptors fan. way to bomb another season for a 25% chance at harrison barnes. thanks bryan "not gonna try" colangelo.Reply
BC's Euro vision for Raptors basketball is still in full e-f-f-e-c-t!
This is a bullchit pick- especially after we- the fans, suffered through last season's bullchit from BC at least draft a player who will physically be in the TDot come Training Camp like KWalker!!
Kemba will make BC look stupid for bypassing him in the draft, trust.
As well, Jonas won't even be here until the season after this upcoming season- if then as it could potentially take 3 years to get Jonas over.lol
Btw- Valanciunas said his game is like CB's & hopes that he will be able to play in NBA this upcoming season- right.
Casey sounds like he's full of chit as he couldn't even pronounce Jonas last name and didn't really know sh*t about his game just generic descriptions thereof.lmfao
How does this pick help Casey out this season?
Casey could be gone by the time, if, Jonas arrives in the TDot.
Rap's still need a big man- will they trade Ed and/or Amir in order to get one?
BC is still pissing on us fans and calling it Rainwater- shitting on us fans and calling it Kobe Steak- the emperor has no clothes- new 'Winning Plan' my ass!!
I can't wait for year 3 of BC's current contract to run its course- hopefuly he will be fired before then.
Your 2013-14 Raptors:
ValanciunasBargnaniKleizaDeRozan (I got a feeling he's gone asap)CalderonReply
You are aware that San Antonio was trying to trade up to get Jonas right?
Man is Popovich dumb, what have they ever won?Reply
"Kemba will make BC look stupid for bypassing him in the draft, trust."
Hear's one to write down and revisit in three years. Say your nickname wouldn't be "Beans" would it? From Alt Raps USENET days?Reply
How soon is soon? 🙂Reply
Spurs really were lusting after Valanciunas… they just dealt George Hill to Indiana for Leonard… I smell a deal with the Raps coming soon…Reply
Trade link Timo?Reply
no link.. just watching draft day unfold… I didnt say it was a rumour.. that is my own intuition… if it doesnt happen, I am unconcerned… no worries stockpiling assets that others wantReply
Nice thinking. Kanter was probably our first choice. Kawahi is not a Spurs type of player (doesnt shoot very well) and I wonder who else is added.Reply
Jonas V is a great fit for the Raps. We aren't going anywhere any time soon so why not take a great young prospect at the C and then stink again next season (which will be a short year) and get a top 5 pick in an amazing 2012 draft. Building a powerhouse through the draft takes time my friends LOOK @ OKC. YOU CAN't RUSH A PROPER REBUILD!!!! nice move BC!Reply
Jonas, who won't be in the TDot this upcoming season, may not be in the TDot for up to 3 years- how does that help the Rap's?
His buyout is not written in cement as his Euro team doesn't even have to let him go if they don't want to they don't give a fuck about BC & the Rap's.lol
In order to call a 'rebuild' you have to blow it up 1st- trade away the longest tenured Rap's under BC- Andrea & Jose, until then the rebuild is just another BC bullchit pr spin.
Matter of fact a true rebuild will be getting rid of BC, Gheradini & Jay- good riddance.Reply
How is it a 'proper rebuild' with Andrea & Jose still on the roster- the 2 longest tenured Rap's under BC? Really now?lmfao
PR Spins in the wind!!
Put the kool aid down as BC aka Bitchassness is still taking shots at CB calling him 126 million dead weight contract because he was getting roasted by reporters for drafting Val- a player who may not be in the TDot for 3 years.Reply
free raptors starting 5 t-shirt for you at: ESPN MARVEL COVERSReply
Wow. Cory goes to the Spurs. Amazing day for Canadian hoops. So Timo, think this adds credence to your rumour? Maybe the Spurs picked him for Toronto, and will trade us Leonard and Cory for the Lithe Lithuanian (TM)?Reply
The Raps' have no Canadian players on their roster yet the trumpeted Jay as the 1st Canadian NBA coach in order to pacify fans.
Cory would look good as the Rap's 3rd roster pg.Reply
He would've looked just as "good" as Alabi as a 3rd string center.Reply
If the Spurs are 'lusting after Valanciunas', do you think he may have some value? Why trade him?Reply
Love your optimism 😛Reply
If PHDSteve thinks this is the best pick ever, you need to stop talking to PHDSteveReply
15th pick for George Hill !!! Are you kidding me ??? And we go and draft a guy who is NOT coming here for another year !!! Where are BC fans, yes, I am calling you out ?
Matt53, Apollo, Tim W, Nilinka, Swirsky and ….
Wow, I am shocked !!!Reply
BC fans? here i am. formerly.
horiible pick,Raptors will win 15 games nxt season. derozan won't sign an extension, davis will ask to be tradedcolangelo will be gone too.Reply
I can see DD with 1 foot out of the door already- especially if BC trades Ed and/or Amir to placate Barg's move to PF.
DD has got to be saying to himself wtf BC draft KWalker!!!Reply
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't shocked. I would've rather have seen Walker, Leonard or Knight selected.
Either BC is a complete moron, or he's a freakin' genius. We won't find out until Valanciunas' buyout is sorted out. It's faaaaaaaaaar too early to consider this a failure (or a success).Reply
well, There is no sorting out. BC said himself that he is most likely not going to Play here next year. So here it is, We are officially competing for the last place in NBA with Bobcats.
Congratulation to the fans who supported BC
But why is that a bad thing? Were we going to compete for a playoff spot next year?
People were suggesting (before the draft) that Valanciunas could be the best player from this draft class. And with an all-but-guaranteed lockout on the horizon, his time missed will be minimal.
Another poor season will be hard to stomach…I understand that. But just think of how valuable another top 5 pick in next year's draft will be (a draft expected to be extremely high on talent) paired up with potentially the best "talent" in the 2011 draft.Reply
we better pick another EURO next year i want our starters to be all EUROSReply
Brilliantly said. I personally do not want 4 consecutive seasons of 35-45 wins. Build properly to win big.Reply
Well you are about to get 4 consecutive season of 20-35 wins last season was the 1st- just wait and see.
The T'Wolves and Clippers are yearly Lottery regualrs- do the full NBA Draft math.Reply
Are you using the same math that concluded Miami in 7? That's some pretty accurate work NostradamusReply
You are still 'stuck on stupid' I see.
HA! Burn, loser!
I think he's moron he's building this team like he's confuseReply
I'm here now
what exactly are you expecting out of me?
Completely neutral to the pick. Huge risk for BC career though…Reply
neutral ?!! Come on 🙂 This Pick was a huge mistake and we will all see the effect of it later this year.
Look around the league: Peacers get Hill for pick 15 !! Mavs get Rudy for 2nd round pick and ….
BC was not able to move any of our player or get a 2nd first round pick or even go down and get asset to get Val.
Do we really think Val wouldn't have been available later ?
Walker, Knight, Lenoard and … are all on the board and we go with another Euro !!
BC basically pissed all over the fans who said enough with Euro Player. If you think he is trading AB, then you must be dreaming.
BC is thinking about pairing AB and Val together now.
Neutral, Really 🙂 🙂
Val WOULD NOT have been available later,
Dude was a projected top 4. Seriously man, do some research, drink some warm tea and relax. Does it not say anything to you that San Antonio wants this guy? I personally hope he doesn't get traded for Parker. No thank you, PG's are easy to grab, centres are not.
B.C. did well here. There is going to be a lockout anyways so Val is going to lose minimal time.Reply
And we been stuck with calderon all this time you better tell BCReply
I'd like to know where he got his Phd from because clearly he doesn't have a clueReply
Lets all take a breath folks! Smells like this part of a trade.Reply
I like the pick. I am not interested in the team being average. Getting a guy in a trade like Hill is marginal upgrade. Big V could be great. Let him develop more in Europe. Also, I am thinking that BC felt Knight was not much of an upgrade over Bayless. Well done BC.Reply
i would rather he develop playing in the NBA against nba playersReply
Isn't the NBDL for development?Reply
Just because it's called a "development league" doesn't mean it does that. Ever watched a game? They're essentially just pickup games where ball hogs chuck up shats to get points so NBA GMs bring them up. Saying the NBDL is for development is like saying the CFL is a stepping stone to the NFL.Reply
Unbelievable Trade for Portland and Mavs:
Wow, who knew 26th Pick can get you Rudy !!! BC, Are you taking Notes ?
@chadfordinsider RT @STEIN_LINE_HQ: Mavs are trading No. 26 to Portland
to acquire Rudy Fernandez, w/ Por moving the pick on to Den
in the Miller/Felton deal 10 minutes ago
Fernandez would've been a great addition 2 years ago, but he'd be a waste on this rebuilding team.Reply
PO got RFelton- damn, I wanted him in the TDot as I knew Denver would trade him because both Lawson & he want to start.
As well, Masai Uriji is making major some moves for Denver.Reply
I don't mind the pick as I'd rather be a 20 win team with a good pick in a potentially locked out season than a 30 win team with a middling player after a potentially locked out season. Draft sites are quite high on him and I hear him compared to people like Biedrins, Noah, and DHoward (seriously!). Tall, needs time, but who was going to come in and be a savior from this draft anyway?
I wish we got Bismark Biyombo, just for all the Prussian/Otto Von jokes.
I agree. His rebounding numbers are off the charts and that is a statistic that consistently translates to the pros.Reply
I love this pick. He's got so much tremendous upside, length, rebounding tenacity and inside game. Great pick outside of Kanter! Umm, the lockout is imminent (players and owners are billions apart!). He can play in Europe for another year. He's the only player that gets to continue working on his game, while everyone else is locked out. Great pick!!!Reply
Sorry about the site being slow, but we got hit hard. Needless to say we'll be firing mediatemple.net shortly.Reply
So, when Euros come over, their rebound rate increases by 30%, right? So then he would project to be an elite rebounder. Good stuff, I love the pick; he was the BPA.Reply
Really do u guys think the Raps could have done better?? are u guys for real come on, this is a poor draft so get what u can… Just chill people n let the man do his job, for all u wanna be Raps managers get real BC is the man not you…Reply
reading casey's comments that the big V is better than ty chandler was at this stage and with a similar game is nice to hear… still, i am finding it hard to get excited about a guy we wont see for a year… you can see colangelo buying himself more time with a project like this guy… we may come to regret not taking knight…Reply
I was completely ecstatic when Utah passed on Knight it seemed like everything was going to fall into place AND BAM! It makes absolutely no sense to me why we did not take Knight I wish i filmed my draft reaction it was intense.Reply
Seriously, I shot up laugh-weeping then hit the floor like a turd from mars.
I WAS a BC fan, outside his Euro centric policy, but this is tanking.Reply
It's ok. We can tank next year and get a good pick.Reply
it better be a euro next year. (darko,ak47,hedont off the bench)Reply
I've been reading some Cavs' blogs. They're killing their management for picking Thompson and passing up the chance to get Valanciunas.Reply
When I did a statistical comparison of the big men available, Jonas DID come out on top. However, not seeing him in the rotation for a year disappoints.Reply
I wasn't sure at first, and my knee jerk was wtf, yet another euro. But Evans is going, davis/amir are growing, and it sounds like we got some rebounding. Lets not forget: this isnt the best draft year, and with a pending lockout, what do we really have to loose? The guys friggin 19!Reply
I love this pick. Jonas is something special.Reply
The fact that a PG wasn't selected leaves me hoping that Bayless has REALLY worked on his game this summer. I'm praying he magically turns into a legit PG come training camp.
Also, the fact that San Antonio traded for Leonard does nothing but assure me that Leonard would've looked great in a Raptors uniform.Reply
Dissapointing pick, they could of had a true pg in knight now were stuck with Jose and bayless you don't get any worse than that in the NBA, now our front court consist of 2 euros that are complete pussies, Dwight Howard will push them out Of the way with his baby finger. Raptors are definately the worse team talent wise in the NBA. At least we will get a high draft next year so colangelo can fuck it up again.Reply
I am really high on this pick. Yes, our immediate needs might be guards, but guards are FAR easier to come by in this league than true centres. This guy has a ridiculously high ceiling, and by all accounts he bucks the trend of european players being soft/afraid of battling in the post/whatever other scars bargs/hoffa scars we're projecting on him.
Great pick, huge need for the team and a *huge* potential player. Without being results oriented, you have to say that today, this is a great pick.Reply
Our immediate needs might be EVERYTHING! We have two bigs that we want to keep long-term (Amir & Ed). We need a third … Jonas, thank you very much. We have two swings (James & DeMar). We STILL need a third! We have one point (Jerryd). We STILL need another. (This will probably be Calderon's last year anywhere near HIS peak.)Reply
podcast to come soon.
Its a pretty good pick and a gutsy one by BC.Reply
Colangelo all but said it in his draft night presser: the raps are not looking to win next year. In fact, they're looking to lose. Get a high pick in the next lottery, bring over Valenculas the next year, give Derozan and Davis a year to mature and gain experience with the coach, then go forward with an even cleaner cap and a new bargaining agreement in place.
I bet you're looking at a target of not next season, nor probably the season after, but the next season as Colangelo's realistic playoff target – by that time Calderon is off the books and the young guys are experienced and the coach's systems are all set and rookies from this year's draft and next have matured a year or two.
Losing ball for one more season guaranteed.
Maybe middling ball for the season after next.
AND then a winning season.
I bet you that's the realistic plan.Reply
I fear that you're absolutely right. My concern is for the losses piling up on AJ, ED, DD, JJ, & JB. As long as they're looking into future seasons, as well, I'll have to learn to live with another season like last year. We need two more guys … one being next year's high draft pick. My question this year is "Can we trade away Bargnani, Barbosa & Calderon for assets that optimize the current progression?"Reply
Wait a second … that can't be the plan. BC has two years and a team option left in his extention! He has to produce a playoff team after next year to even get extended to a third year!!Reply
Boko – I think he's confident he'll get renewed if he stays on plan. I think I remember Richard Peddie talking about "a plan" that the board had been versed on by Colangelo and that the plan was the key to his new contract. I think he and everybody else is trying to be realistic here. I swear words like "realistic", "long term", etc. have been floating around since the last quarter of last year. The decision to not try and quick fix it was made, and now they're actually going to stick to it.
The raps obviously can't win 45 games next season. Let's dream that they can win 30. You can't make a strong push into the playoffs off a 30 win year, so maybe the next year you can win 41 with a little more experience and an asset or two. Then with another asset or two you could conceivably win 50+ and be considered a legit playoff team.
Third season from now – book it. That makes it the 2013-2014 season. There's a lot of pining to do until then.Reply
Damn you just gave BC a pass until 2013-14, wow!
You do realize that the Rap's have been going bad ever since Sam was prematurely fired at 8-9 back in 2008-09 season?
The embracing of lethargicness is spreading from Barg's onto the whole Franchise & fanbase.
BC would have been better off trading the #5 pick for TParker.Reply
Dude. You make the classic mistake that is destroying journalism. Reporting the facts doesn't mean that I agree with them. I gave Colangelo nothing. I simply stated my impression of what is going on given the facts available and made a prediction – not a wish – as to what might happen given the limited picture we have.
If you read that I'm happy to wait 3 MORE years for a winning season, then you're reading something that I didn't write.
Another fact that has come up several times in the last 10-12 months and was repeated in his presser. Chasing and pandering to Bosh screwed every plan he ever had when Bosh walked. Now he has to come up with a new plan.Reply
More 'Losing with a purpose kool aid?'
Why should fans buy tickets to watch the Rap's lose next season?
So they can watch the Rap's lose alot of games then drop in the Lottery once like from 3 to 5 this year thus Rap's lost out on EKanter (even though I'm not that high on him) a player who would be here next season for the Rap with no complicated buyout issues.
At least the Rap's could have brought in a talented well known proven NCAA college rookie like Kemba to excite the fanbase with DD & Kemba in the backcourt- swag alert would be on high in the TDot.
The future isn't guaranteed only the present is what you can control and presently the Rap's suck elephant balls- point blank BC new 'winning plan' shit does stank!!Reply
I wonder if BC is gonna blow up the Raptor roster again and lose a whole slew of flops by shopping them off for more duds.Reply
Amazing pick! The most talented center on the board. This draft didn't have a great PG… and what with the foreign label.
Do people realize that we could be grouped with international? Besides Lithuanian player are a different bread, hard nosed. Sorry for adding to the stereotypes.Reply
Dave Feschuk is suggesting the Raptors will pursue Tyson Chandler this offseason. I fail to see the logic in that strategy after drafting Valanciunas. And I would think Cuban will do everything in his power to match any offer Chandler gets.Reply
Cuban will keep Tyson in Dallas- trust, money is no issue with Cuban.
The only f/a big man the Rap's might have a chance at is Canadian Sam Dalembert but he wants to go to a championship contending team- maybe BC throws major $$ at him?
They might have to to try and trade for a Kaman or Okafor type because Alabi & Ajinca won't do it.Reply
This is a terrible pick IMO, dude might not play in the lnext year then who knows (Vasquez*ahem) doesn't look NBA ready physically or game wise and projects like bierdrins with a free-throw.
I really hope I'm wrong or there is a big trade.wtf.wtf.Reply
Vazquez said he didn't want to leave Europe, and there were rumblings he wasn't committed to the NBA before the draft. JV has been repeating ad hominem that he wants to be in the NBA.Reply
the raps should spend some money to send a tutor/trainer over to europe for the year to get this kid jacked and learn english at the same time. We are going to need him to be able to communicate with the rest of the team and coaches if we are going to ever win.Reply
I was commenting on nba.com because RR crashed and dam there are way too many negative, angry Rap fans win very low bball IQ.
I like the pick because I think Val will be a stud 5 down the road and possibly the best player from this draft.
Its so much easier to get a guard then a center and Knight is a project as well.
If we had of picked Kemba and maybe he will be ROY, we prob still dont make playoffs. Instead we will have a top pick in a stacked 2012 draft and a proper rebuild still in the works.
Kemba's stats plateau'd from year one in college. How's he going to win ROY in the nba? Knight might work out to be a solid starter, but neither have the upside of Jonas… The kid averaged about 68% from the field.Reply
why wouldn't BC go after Europeans? in case you haven't realized, americans dont want to play in canada. he may be the best player to come out of the draft, and it has become a point guard heavy league and big men are now at a premium. good job BC lets hope it worksReply
Knight did. He looked pissed when he slid. He said he was disappointed because he thinks he is a top 5 pick and RAPTORS DID NOT FCUKING DRAFT HIM. If he didn't want to come to Toronto he would have said he was a top 4 pick.Reply
I wouldn't say all American's wouldn't want to play here. Some would rather play in Detroit, Cleveland, and other lovely US cities… for some reasons. We seem to be a bit too sensitive with players leave. We did make Bill Walton's top 3 North America Cites… and he's American.Reply
James Johnson was on The Fan tonight and he said that he absolutely loves Toronto, and would want nothing more than to play his whole career here. He even invited his brother (and training partner) to town because it was a place he had to see.Reply
LOL, like there are 10 other teams who are begging James Johnson to come to their town and play there 🙂 🙂 For God Sake, the Kid was in D-League last year 🙂Reply
Johnson's skill level is completely irrelevant. It was stated that "all Americans wouldn't want to play here". Johnson is an American and DOES want to play here.Reply
this is a joke, 2 years ago it was: tanking is wrong, sign any moron to cover up rupaul, pasta fairy, and Ole
suddenly its okay to tank and pick based on unmeasurable 'upsides' this is a mark on an already tarnished franchiseReply
Not sure if it's the drinks, but you seem very bitter. Are you speaking about the number 5 pick upside?
If so, you do know he's a winner on every level… shoot's over 65% and 82% from the strip… while being a rebounder, blocking shots, picking up MVPs, having a motor and being 7′ tall with a huge reach.Reply
all superlatives for someone who doesn't show for another year min?
versus literally any player that we can give minutes, evaluate, coach, train and re-evaluate?
tank tank tank tankReply
And by picking Kemba, we WEREN'T going to tank next year?Reply
Off course not. I recall reading somewhere that if we drafted Kemba we would get the ROY, COY and EOY. That's not tanking. And I read it on this site somewhere (can't remember where), so it has to be true.Reply
true thing because we have some peices that when you add you know who he is to the mix like oveereem says you have milkshake or some thing like that.
free raptors starting 5 t-shirt for you at: ESPN MARVEL COVERSReply
…and this fucker shouldn't get any more EOY he miss the ride.
#15 VINCE CARTER drafted 5th shorten season ROY
#15 KEMBA WALKER with the 5th pick shorten season ROY
but nooooo
fuck no ROY boooy and if we are going to tank why get rid of JayReply
BC is contradicting himself all the time but that's what liars do.Reply
It seems to me that you don't want to wait for a rebuild, which is fine.
I say, get the Lakers on the phone to bring in Kobe, get Nash (he wants to play here), sign Tyson Chandler, and also convince Dwight Howard to play here too.
That will do it, right?Reply
The fact that it is next to impossible to bring FA to TO! This has forced us to build a contender through a patient rebuild.Reply
maybe if we tried to win games they would come.now we are not going anywhere next season but watch BC let it rain on FA.Reply
That's a lie!!
Barnes was coming to the TDot before BC miscalculated the Salary Cap regulations in relation to Barnes.
As well, BC can acquire talent via trades ie TChandler was ready to come to Toronto.
Stop falling for that bullchit myth built on the mindset of a couple of players like SFrancis & AMourning- sheesh.
Some players don't want to play in Minnesota, Milwaukee, etc as well.Reply
master p get your boy outta here as soon a possibleReply

That's just "Peachy" considering, all of you oil/gas bug's in the Market. Hope you bug's get squished like your doing to the Majority of consumer's, that would be justice. God Bless The USA.
A lot will never been exploited then. Cali doesn't want stinky oil shale messing up its pristine lands
Then they deserve to walk everywhere, if you want/need gas to run your car's, you got to share in the pain. Maybe California should pay $7-$8 a gallon of gas then if that's the way they feel, I'll take cheaper gas myself and, I bet the Majority Of Consumer's would agree. Plus cheaper oil/gas would be a "BOOM" for our economy, keep the other states gas cheaper than California DREAMER'S, they'll be slipping into the ocean 1 of these day's anyway. God Bless.

Custom Pattern from Vintage Sweater
I just found a gorgeous sweater in my Grandfather's closet that is in, I would say not so wearable condition. I wonder if anyone would be able to give me an idea of how I can customize a pattern to remake the sweater. It might be a stretch but I just found it Sunday and it is now my favorite sweater ever. The color and the shape and pretty much everything about it except it is lookin a lil rough in all its acrylic glory.
My attachment wont upload so hopefully someone can make a suggestion on whether or not there is a customizable pattern website I can get started there.
Thanks guys
This may help you get started and if its too much, theres a link to a simpler version.
How bad is it? If it is frayed and a little holey, it will definitely need some rework or a new pattern. If it's just a little faded, try washing it and rinsing in Mrs. Stewart's bluing. This revives the color on many items that look faded. I've also heard that some people use it to make yellowed and aged items white again. I use this to make my work shirts a dazzling white as a bleach alternative that won't harm fabric. It's only a few dollars a bottle and it wouldn't hurt to try.

White Collar Crime Lawyer
Title 18 USC 3142(e) provides that there is a presumption that no condition of release will reasonably assure the appearance of the defendant or assure the safety of the community if there is probable cause that the defendant committed an offense punishable by a maximum term of ten years or more in prison.
In other words, in a federal drug conspiracy case, there is a presumption in favor of detention. This is rebuttable by the defendant, but it is fairly rare for a defendant of a drug conspiracy case to be released pending trial.
A rebuttable presumption that you may pose a danger to the community or a flight risk may be mandatory but this only means that the focus is back on you for evidence. It is not a shift of the burden of proof, just presentation of your evidence. If you present evidence such as the pretrial services report, self surrender etc., you have made the production and shifted the burden of proof BACK to the prosecutor. The Judge then can weigh all of the other evidence such as the (g) factors. The rebuttable presumption is only a gatekeeper, not a jailer.

BRIGHT pupils will no longer have to take GCSEs, and the time spent on testing at A-level will be reduced in a radical overhaul of public examinations, The Telegraph can reveal.
The plans, to be unveiled later this year by the Government's examination watchdog, the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority, are a response to complaints from parents and teachers that pupils are becoming stressed and overburdened by the volume of examinations.
They have also been prompted by a belief that it is increasingly pointless for talented pupils to waste hours taking examinations that they are almost certain to pass with top grades.
This conviction heightened last week as record A-level results were published with a pass rate of 89.8 per cent. The number of pupils scoring top marks in this year's GCSE results, which will be announced this week, are expected to be equally impressive.
Prof David Hargreaves, the QCA chief executive, confirmed the plans, saying: "The time spent in examinations in future will be significantly less than it is today.
"A lot of people are arguing that we haven't got the balance right between assessment and teaching. I have sympathy for that view. You can't go on giving people endless exams.
"What we need is high quality exams, not a high quantity. I don't think it follows that the longer you make a student spend in an exam room, the more rigorous the assessment."
Prof Hargreaves said he would be proposing a flexible examination system allowing individual schools and pupils to choose which, and how many, papers to take.
He would expect leading schools, starting with those in the independent sector, to skip GCSEs, allowing teenagers to start their sixth-form studies early.
That would give them more time to study other subjects and to enjoy extra-curricular activities. It would also save students about two hours per subject in the examination room. Some pupils take 14 or 15 GCSEs.
The professor will propose that pupils who are confident enough to take all their examinations in one go at the end of the sixth form should have the amount of time they spend in the examination room cut by a third.
That will mean taking a three hour paper to obtain an AS-level, and six hours of examinations, taken in two papers, for an A-level.
Most teenagers now take their examinations in modules over two years, adding up to as much as 4.5 hours per AS-level, and nine hours of examining for an A-level.
The proposals mean that overall a teenager who currently typically faces about 11 hours of papers to obtain a GCSE followed by an A-level in any particular subject, would in future simply take an A-level, with six hours of examinations.
David Hart, the general secretary of the National Association of Head Teachers, praised the move. He said: "This will be a major step in the right direction. The number of exams at the moment is clearly excessive."
In an interview with The Telegraph, Prof Hargreaves, a former Cambridge don, also took a swipe at the Government over university admissions, insisting that colleges should not be forced to take students from under-privileged backgrounds unless they were sufficiently qualified.
Ministers have introduced a scheme whereby universities are paid extra for taking youngsters from poor backgrounds, prompting charges of social engineering, and last year denounced Oxford University for refusing a place to Laura Spence, a comprehensive pupil from Tyneside.
Prof Hargreaves said, however, that while disadvantaged students should be encouraged the Government's approach would backfire. "I'm not a supporter of any kind of positive discrimination. I don't think you do anybody a service by doing that.
"You produce second-class citizens who got there not by their own talent and effort, but who got there by someone saying standards don't matter, what matters is people's representation from certain groups, occupations, whatever.
"A great deal of what was talked about Laura Spence I very much regretted. In Cambridge, applications from state schools went down. That's a terribly sad side-effect and it shows how dangerous it can be to blow up something out of a single case."

- What other names is Mugwort known by?
- What is Mugwort?
- How does Mugwort work?
- Are there safety concerns?
- Dosing considerations for Mugwort.
How does Mugwort work?The chemicals in mugwort might stimulate the uterus.
Are there safety concerns?There isn't enough information to know if mugwort is safe.
Special Precautions & Warnings:Pregnancy and breast-feeding: It's LIKELY UNSAFE to use mugwort if you are pregnant. Mugwort might cause a miscarriage because it can start menstruation and also cause the uterus to contract.
Not enough is known about the safety of taking mugwort if you are breast-feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use.
Allergies: Mugwort may cause an allergic reaction in individuals who are allergic to the Asteraceae/Compositae plant family. Members of this family include ragweed, chrysanthemums, marigolds, daisies, and many other herbs.
Mugwort might also cause an allergic reaction in people who are allergic to birch, celery, or wild carrot. This has been called the "celery-carrot-mugwort-spice syndrome."
There is also some concern that mugwort might cause allergic reactions in people with allergies to white mustard, honey, royal jelly, hazelnut, olive, latex, peach, kiwi, the Micronesian nut called Nangai, and other plants from the genus Artemisia, including sage.
Mugwort pollen might cause reactions in people who are allergic to tobacco.
Dosing considerations for Mugwort.The appropriate dose of mugwort depends on several factors such as the user's age, health, and several other conditions. At this time there is not enough scientific information to determine an appropriate range of doses for mugwort. Keep in mind that natural products are not always necessarily safe and dosages can be important. Be sure to follow relevant directions on product labels and consult your pharmacist or physician or other healthcare professional before using.

Well tie me kangaroo down sport ...
What does monkee do for a living?
He's not saying, it's a secret!
Why? Who knows, maybe because he's embarrassed to be working in a call centre?
But he'll give you some clues, and here they are ...
"My job is fairly unique as it involves waiting for various situations to occur. If they don't I pass my time playing on here. That isn't sad, it gives me something to do in between jobs . I can be away for minutes, days or not at all, depending on circumstances. I always am near a PC unless the situation requires me to act suddenly."
"I am employed but manage myself and work in a small team of 8, and am judged not on results, but have to be effective as more of a deterant than anything else."
"Sometimes I dress similar to others. Sometimes casual."
"My work is such that I do I am in a security enviorment, and I protect people"
"I have reallly given you the amount of clues that I can. All I can say is I really enjoy my job, it's part of my life now. Alot of people on here have taken the piss, but I have never said what I do so I find that amusing. Some speculate, but apart from my friends.,no one really knows. all I will say is that I work in a security situations, where I protect people. Thats all I say. I did the same job in Coventry, and it was rough down there, but in Brum its not so bad. less to do, and the people arn't so tough.Thats what I think anyway., I enjoy it and it pays very very good. If people think its a wind up. ok. i don't care, cos tomorrow I will be doing it again"
Now, at this point you would think there were no more clues, but the people he was bullshitting to didn't get it, so he continues ...
"I'm not gay, I have 4 children , 2 American bulldogs, and 1 wife, and two cars. I would have created a biological miracle if I had got that many kid's by... how shall I put this, batting for the other team...!!"
"I'm not a bouncer, I protect people and sometimes property. Bouncers don't protect people, they throw people out of places and look intimidating. !! I can do that too, but usually, try to pass un noticed, unless asked to sort out a situation."
"If I say a security official, that is near enough. Part of my work , er if you went to a event, you wouldn't notice me, but I would be in a suit with an earpiece, and looking for problems and reporting back. That isn't all I do, but some of it occasionally."
"If you went to Australia, and went to a very large town with a male name,,,shorten the name of that town and what have you got ?"
"Well tie me a kangeroo down sport ! kayleigh, as I said, I am not revealing, and won't, but...as I said to my Great Uncle Sidney...'You know Sid, you might just be right about Kayleigh, she's a bright girl, especially for a Geordie"

An army of celebrity chefs (and you?) mingle, cook and carouse this weekend
- 2:20 pm Friday, February 26th, 2016 by M.M. Cloutier
A few dozen miles or so south of us, the beachfront is crawling with dozens of chefs and cooking personalities from TV's Food Network and the Cooking Channel.
From Bobby Flay to Giada De Laurentis, Tyler Florence, Rachel Ray, Emeril Lagasse, Anne Burrell and many others, they're once again part of the annual and highly successful South Beach Wine & Food Festival (SoBeFest).
The festival, affiliated with the aforementioned food TV networks and presented by Food & Wine magazine, began this past Wednesday and runs through Sunday (Feb. 28).
In addition to chefs and cooking personalities of the Food Network and [More]
Game on: Are Palm Beach Food & Wine Festival chefs athletic, too?
- 3:52 pm Thursday, December 10th, 2015 by M.M. Cloutier
The dozen ticketed events of the four-day Palm Beach Food & Wine Festival, which begins tonight, are nearly all sold out, but there's one free event that settles a question: Can really talented chefs play a deft game of beach volleyball?
Why not?
Either way, it's fun to watch Palm Beach chefs such as Clay Conley and the festival's visiting chefs and culinary TV personalities such as Robert Irvine give it their best shot.
Tomorrow (Dec. 11) at 2 p.m., "Get Served," the festival's annual beach-volleyball battle, rounds up teams consisting of chefs, sommeliers and other festival participants to "remind them that kitchen skills don't [More]
Get 'em while you can: Few remaining Palm Beach food/wine festival tickets available
- 4:07 pm Wednesday, November 18th, 2015 by M.M. Cloutier
In addition to household-name chefs and enviable venues, most of the upcoming Palm Beach Food & Wine Festival's events have this in common: They're sold out.
Tickets remain available for only three of the festival's dozen events, which range from chef-collaboration dinners to grilling affairs with Food Network personalities and a brunch with Daniel Boulud.
The Dec. 10-13 festival (pbfoodwinefest.com), now its 9th year, has become a much-anticipated affair, especially since it in 2011 expanded to the multi-day platform it remains today.
The four-day affair, founded by lead organizer and public-relations specialist David Sabin, not only draws local and area residents, but foodies from elsewhere in the country who often purchase [More]
`Top Chef' finalist, PB restaurateur to open new dining concept at CityPlace
- 1:59 pm Monday, October 5th, 2015 by M.M. Cloutier
Celebrated South Florida culinary talent and "Top Chef" finalist Lindsay Autry is partnering with seasoned Palm Beach restaurateur Thierry Beaud to open an expansive CityPlace restaurant featuring "consciously-sourced food," innovation and "the nostalgic charm of the American kitchen table."
THE REGIONAL Kitchen & Public House, with 10,000 square feet, is slated to open in early 2016 in prime space (651 Okeechobee Blvd.) across from the Palm Beach County Convention Center and the soon-to-open Hilton Convention Center Hotel.
The new restaurant marks Chef Autry's first venture into restaurant proprietorship, and for Beaud, enhances his fast-growing roster of dining venues, including, among others, Pistache French Bistro and Paneterie [More]

Numerous nationally known chefs, Food Network personalities and others are descending on Palm Beach in December for a dozen culinary events lined up for the 2015 Palm Beach Food & Wine Festival.
The four-day festival, now in its 9th year, will feature everything from extravagant dinners to brunches, wine tastings, cooking demos, a "grand" taste-around finale with live entertainment and more at venues such as the festival's host-hotel, the Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach.

The winner's none other than Lindsay Autry, known nationally for her "Top Chef" finalist fame and her stand-out Palm Beach cooking resume ranging from being Michelle Bernstein's protégé to big-draw local cooking collaborations and Autry's recently launched Fin & Feather catering enterprise.

Going whole hog: Lindsay Autry leads PB chef-team in tail-to-snout cooking contest Sunday

This Sunday, Chef Lindsay Autry will lead a formidable group of chefs—including Palm Beach's Clay Conley of Buccan and Aaron Black of PB Catch—as they go head-to-head against four other South Florida chef-teams in a pork-a-licious contest.
Sunday is the Miami leg of an annual traveling cooking competition, Cochon 555, which tours various cities each year to promote the sustainable farming of heritage-breed pigs.
For each leg of Cochon 555's competition—the competition concludes in June in Aspen, Colo.—each participating team must prepare a maximum of six dishes that collectively use an entire 200-pound heritage-breed pig—as in tail to snout and everything in between.

In a manner of speaking, it turns out two well-known chefs—one from Palm Beach, the other from Washington, D.C.—have traded places, at least if you take a moment to connect the proverbial dots.
Lindsay Autry—a Bravo TV "Top Chef" alumnus and a former Omphoy Ocean Resort kitchen leader who's participating in Dec. 11-14's Palm Beach Food & Wine Festival—has assumed the executive chef position at Firefly restaurant in the Hotel Madera in D.C.'s Dupont Circle.
There, she replaces Firefly's now-former executive chef Todd Wiss—who's now executive chef at The Omphoy in Palm Beach.
The Omphoy and Hotel Madera are in the management portfolio of San Francisco-based Kimpton [More]
