I was treated by Dr Peng in 2012, and although his office was a bit rough around the edges, I appreciated the fact that he personally handled all my tests/procedures. Even that terrible awful dye test that I had to do TWICE. I was glad he was the one who did it. He may not be a sugary sweet doctor, but he is thorough and available, and took time with me every time I saw him.
The best doctor!
I saw him a few years back and I regret stepping foot in his office, I feel that I wasted my time and money with this doctor. He scheduled a lot of un necessary test and even an outpatient procedure. 2 IVF specialists that i saw after him, both said that procedure was unnecessary. Before you see him or even after, do research don't let him fool you like he did me. Seek another medical opinion. After another doctor reviewed my medical records we found that he would miss diagnose, just so that all the procedures would get covered under insurance. my diagnosis has always been infertility and he billed for a different diagnosis just to collect from insurance.
Dr Peng and his staff are very professional. I would recommend Dr Peng to anyone.
Rude !!! Staff
Went in with no personal referral and was pleasantly surprised.
Please dont go to this doctor, he is horrible; he can barely speak enough english to explain stuff to you. His staff is very unprofessional and trashy and dont provide any education to helping you with the process of ivf, extremely lacking in knowledge and they are all medical assistants, get a real person that is educated. You answer his questions and he doesnt even pay attention to your responses. Please take my advice he is not worth the waste of time and is extremely over priced.
Buenos dias, Solo quiero expresar que tanto mi mujer y yo estamos muy contentos con el Dr. Peng y con su staff. Mi mujer y yo queriamos tener hijos pese al problema de endometriosis que tiene. Al principio siempre es duro, tanto fisica, psicologica y económicamente ya que no es tan fácil como ir a comprar al supermercado. Fuimos a la consulta del Dr. Peng recomendados por nuestra obstetricia y la verdad es que pese a que al principio tenÃamos dudas debido al esfuerzo que supone, finalmente tomamos una buena decisión. Tras varios meses de tratamiento y pese al problema de endometriosis, mi mujer esta embarazada. Muchas veces, la valoración hacia el Dr. sobretodo cuando se trata de IVF se hace en base al éxito o no del tratamiento. Pero tengo que decir que el Dr. Peng se ha mostrado siempre muy atento, proactivo y dispuesto a encontrar una solución. Solución que finalmente ha encontrado. En cuanto a su staff, nuestra experiencia es positiva. Hacen su trabajo y el trato con el paciente es correcto. Nuestra opinión es que es un buen profesional y que hay que confiar en su opinión y en su criterio. Estoy seguro que hay más parejas que también han tenido éxito en su tratamiento de IVF con el Dr. Peng.
The staff has the worst customer service ever, even mcdonalds has better service. I only went to dr. peng because he was reffered by my obgyn and I regret that I didnt check for reviews before I went to him. I knew fertility costs a lot but wow I wasted my money with him. I gave him all the paperwork that he needed in order for him to be able to know my solution was to go straight to IVF but he told me to do a couple of injections with iui. I didnt know untill I changed doctor (best thing ever) and new doctor was surprised dr. Peng didnt tell me injections were very likely not going to work.
please ,please don't go and see this doctor, very unprofessional and rude staff, all they want is your money, no patient care is given and doctors cannot tell patient what treatment plan he has for you, wasted my money on this doctor , Ultra sound every week ,even when you don't need it and please do not use this Doctor
Dr. Peng is an excellent doctor. My husband and I had seen two other fertility doctors. With the other doctors we felt rushed and like things were never clearly explained. Dr. Peng was very patient, explained things clearly and was very proactive. We were able to get pregnant!! I would recommend Dr. Peng to anyone with fertility issues.
I feel I wasted time with Dr. Peng. He requested unnecessary testing and procedures. My insurance did not cover IVF treatment so therefore I paid out of pocket. He seems knowledgable but he is thinking about his pocket.
This doctor was recommended by my wife's OBGYN, why I do not know? The staff is extremely rude and apathetic....well not all, just the one that "greets' and collects payments. As far as the doctor he was not clear of what his procedure would be and cost of the same. I felt like I was at a used car lot with the salesman "doctor" making my wife sign an extended warranty while I was away. We felt that this guy is in it just for the money. There are better choices.
my experienced was great.I never thought I will have no hope for my case.In Doctor Peng,I was able to retrieve my menstrual cycle with no pain.Ive done undergone many clinical lab tests,and found out the reason why i got those problem that my other doctors that even been detected,before i have had my hysteroscopy and laparoscopy done..... I recommend Dr.Peng to my friends that had same problem or had any infertility issues...I am very Happy that My Ob-gyne,Recommend me to Dr.Peng...Finally no more stress month.
My big issues with doctor Peng are 1.) cost and 2.) accuracy. His ultrasounds are very expensive at $450 a piece, and he gave me at least two more than I really needed during the time that I was seeing him. Also, I am concerned about the accuracy of assessments that he made regarding my reproductive health because after monitoring an annovulatory cycle of mine, he informed me that I would need to take pills to increase the thickness of my uternine lining in addition to ovulation induction agents. When I asked him why my lining was thin, he basically told me that it just is. After doing some very basic research, I realized that a thinner uterine lining is actually to be expected during an annovulatory cycle where no follicles are produced since these follicles produce estrogen, which is what makes your lining thicker. Overall, my experience there interracting with both doctor and office staff was very good, though there is one woman working up front who doesn't always have the best attitude. I do think though that Dr. Peng is overzealous in his effort to diagnose and treat, which, in considering this along with the price that he charges has meant for me that i cannot resolve my hormone imbalances as quickly. We spent most of our savings on him (and we still owe him money), and are sorry that we did.
Overall I did not have a problem with Dr Peng, he seemed very knowlegable and thorough. My problem is with his office staff. They seemed completely lost half the time, were terrible at returning phone calls and once our services were finished they have been nearly impossible to deal with. My biggest issue is that they messed up completely in verifing my insurance before we had procedures done, and then have been anything but helpful in resolving the issue since. So while Dr Peng may be a good Dr, I would not go back to him ever again simply because I don't want to deal with his office staff and get royally screwed financially again.

PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP) - Pat Perez, so sick that he thought about pulling out of the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, is starting to feel good about sticking around.
With birdies on four of his last five holes Friday at Pebble Beach, Perez polished off a 7-under-par 65 and quickly built a four-stroke lead over Lee Janzen heading into the weekend.
Perez was at 13-under 131. Janzen had a 67 at Spyglass. Jerry Smith was another stroke back after a 69 on Poppy Hills.
Tiger Woods finished with a 1-over 73, 12 strokes out of the lead.

Xbox 360 With No Key On Dvd Drive
Posted 13 January 2009 - 11:50 PM
I recently bought 2 rrod xbox's since mine has been having issues and wanted to have a backup.
I got one of the boxes to work with the heatgun and x-clamp fix.
Booting up with no hdd and its has the new dashboard already installed.
When I insert 360 game, demo or regular xbox game the box give me the white screen error about inserting a 360 disc..
The drive is a samsung ms28 and have tried the pot fix was reading at 3.27 and I clocked it up to 3.42 and 3.67 with no luck.
Before I did this the box would play and still only plays burnt movies or retail movies fine.
I's assuming the key on the dvd is not there or this was a replacement drive.
Am ordering a Via card so I can try reading the firmware off the drive.
But say it's bad is there anything I can do with this motherboard without a working drive or key??
Or should I try replacing something on the drive itself, the other box has a samsung ms25...

umm, no....the error message "Please place this disc in an Xbox 360 console" means that the DVD drive has the improper key and will not play games unless it gets the correct key. Unless you can somehow get the key from whoever you bought it from, the console is no good for games. However, the reason that person probably sold it was that he/she probably screwed up flashing it.
Exactly... tweaking the pots won't do any bit of good. Personally I'd put the pots right back to where they were in the first place and use the drive as a spare.
Posted 14 January 2009 - 08:40 AM
ive tried numerous backups and they all play fine, except dead rising. i keep getting that error no matter how many times i try to load it.

pot tweaking should always be done in small increments of around 100 ohms (.1 on your meter) to reduce the risk of overdoing it and burning out the laser..

Posted 15 January 2009 - 04:41 PM
I have tweaked it a few more times and even went as low as 2.9 and then tried the other laser from the other xbox and no luck..
I think the key is missing or its a different drive.
My final question is once the via card comes in, will that be able to tell me if there is even a key on that drive?
Posted 16 January 2009 - 04:40 AM
not some. all backups boot fine EXCEPT ONE.
obviously that backup is not good, redo it from the original.
what method do you use for to get your backups?
Posted 22 January 2009 - 05:51 AM
I also have a box with the same problem, no key.
I'm I reading correctly that an Original Game will not play on a box without a matching dvd drive. BUT a game backup copy will?
Just wondering if I got junk on my hands.

Without the proper key NO 360 game of any kind will ever load.

Without the proper key NO 360 game of any kind will ever load.
without 'proper key' I am guessing is the matched key for the box...
can the key be located or a mod chip be used to correct the problem would be my final question before a put an axe into it.
Posted 24 January 2009 - 05:55 AM
Wait for the via card to see if you can get a key off the drive.
A drive without a key is still good for somebody else, you have no joy sell the damn thing.
na mate if you want the drive to work with the xbox motherboard you have you need the key, no chip can bypass the key. As of now there is no way to get the key from the motherboard

Condor Legion
Legion Condor
a unit of the German air force, or Luftwaffe, detailed by Hermann Göring for special duty with General Francisco Franco's Nationalist forces in the Spanish Civil War (1936–39). It was sent to Franco on the condition that it stay under German command. The Legion consisted of four bomber squadrons (of 12 bombers each) and four fighter squadrons and was backed by antiaircraft and antitank units. It engaged in several raids, especially on Barcelona. On April
, 1937, it attacked the Basque city of Guernica with great devastation and loss of life.

C.J. McCollum wore a Trail Blazers red jacket to a press conference Friday morning in Portland to receive his NBA's Most Improved Player award.
Anyone who knows McCollum understands his love of fashion and shopping.
The 2013 Lehigh graduate is appreciative that league voters recognized all of his sweat and effort to set career highs in virtually every major offensive category.
The color of his jacket, however, more likely represents the burning desire deep within him to find a way to turn around Portland's playoff fortunes.
The Blazers twice have been beaten up by the Clippers in Los Angeles. The best-of-seven series comes to Portland tonight for Game...

5 Good Reasons to Tour Your Hospitalalismith
This being pregnancy number two, I didn't think it was very important for me to tour the hospital I'm scheduled to deliver at. You know, because doing something once before means you're now a total pro and all.
Since I'm having a hard time convincing myself that I'll be welcoming a new person into my life (and the world) within less than a couple weeks (hours?), I decided a tour of the hospital might do me some good. And I'm really happy I did it.
Here are five good reasons to tour your hospital prior to your baby's birth:
1. Get a feel. It's nice to get an idea of where you'll be experiencing labor, and what the setup will be like when you'll meet the newest person in your life—no small moment as far as life-changing events go. There is power in visualization, and can make you feel a little more in control of a situation that you don't have total control over.
2. Make a plan. You'll know exactly where to go and what to do when the time comes. No getting lost in hospital wings or wondering where to park. (I learned the facility I'll be delivering at has valet parking! Suh-weet.) Touring the hospital is a little like a trial run.
3. Newborns. I checked out a few fuzzy-headed newborns hanging out in the nursery. They made my heart pitter-pat, and made me feel more excited than overwhelmed. Nothing offers perspective like a fresh, new baby does. Plus, they really are the cutest, most precious things and I can't believe I get to have one.
4. Get answers. I got answers to questions I didn't even realize I had. Like, can toddlers come to the hospital if it's peak flu season? Will I be sent to triage when I first arrive at the hospital? Will I be go to a postpartum unit following delivery? Where is the NICU? Are there power outlets in the delivery room? Showers? What about popsicles? Having these answers makes it easier to pack and plan, and, as I said, visualize.
5. Scope things out. I was most interested in the nursing staff. My experience from last time taught me that nurses practically deliver your baby. Plus, they're responsible for your care and comfort during labor—whether it's long and drawn-out or more like a whirlwind. I was also interested in hospital philosophy on skin-to-skin time and whether or not sending the newborn to the nursery is encouraged or discouraged.
Do you plan to tour your hospital? Obviously, I recommend it!

Again, I think a lot of the
Again, I think a lot of the critism of Dusty on TCR is beyond ridiculous (mostly from users, not mods). But then I see Dusty keep those two at the top of the lineup and just shake my head. It just lacks logic to me, when someone is hitting about .000 in his last 6 games or so, give him a little rest, take a little pressure off of him and move him down the order.
With Patterson, I think Dusty feels he'll see some good pitches ahead of Lee, so he won't continue to swing at junk...but when the pitcher knows he doesn't need to worry about walking Patterson, he'll give him junk too.
I also don't like seeing Blanco in the lineup again...I said I thought he was catching Maddux a lot recently on top of Zambrano, but was told I was crazy...if he is going to catch both, that's 40% of our games where we play a guy batting .150 instead of .300. We can;t afford that.
Our 3-7 hitters better do some damage, because 8,9,1,2 is a gaping black hole.
Prior could be back as soon as Sunday versus the White Sox....hot damn!!!!!
DLEE!! brenly just said
DLEE!! brenly just said "image what kinda numbers lee would have if patterson and neifi would take some walks"
is he reading TCR?
oh and not to mention, ARAM!!!
Did CPat rob Lee (the bad
Did CPat rob Lee (the bad guy one) of a HR? Gameday had his ball beyond the centerfield wall.
Fun Fact for the Day:
Fun Fact for the Day: Patterson, Perez, Macias and Wilson have a sum total of 586 at bats and a sum total of 24 walks. And two of them bat 1-2 in the lineup. And Dusty wonders why the offense is sputtering.
Beginning with the June 8th
Beginning with the June 8th game against the Blue Jays, the Neifi/Kpat 1-2 order has netted one walk between them in 10 games.
The one time this duo was not penciled into the starting linup as 1-2, Hairston batted 2nd ... and proceded to net his 7th caught stealing attempt.
The Brewers starter on
The Brewers starter on Tuesday, Victor Santos, is 2-6 with a 2.87 ERA. I don't see how that happens. It's happened to Clemen's this season some but heck, he is back up to 5-3. I still feel bad for Clement last year when the offense wouldn't do anything for him (at least before his late season meltdown when he took care of the losing all by himself). Anyway, hopefully we can make Santos ERA look a little uglier after Tuesdays game.
Come on now. Those walks
Come on now. Those walks are evil. Do nothing but clog the bases.
anyone else stoked...even
anyone else stoked...even though he may be a bit "not in peak condition"...that jerome f'n williams is playing tonite in a cubs uniform?
sure..he's not all that..he's not the next clemens or koufax or even close..but, he's a very servicable 2/3 spot rotation pitcher on a lotta teams when he's clicking. we know he's overweight, his velocity is still gaining (and has gained since he was traded to the cubs just 3 or so starts), and his sinker is working.
cubs sucked up loot taking on most of hawkin's tab, but hey...williams, and a bonus of mr. aardvark...
mitre's coming of age, williams on board...rusch with a contract-out clause if he's not a starter in 06. should be a fun few weeks while hendry runs around figuring out how many of those he can keep around while getting what he needs.
I am definitely looking
I am definitely looking forward to watching Williams work. I hope he lives up to his potential for us.
I went up to MIL for the
I went up to MIL for the game last night. Couple of notes:
- I would estimate that over 50% of the fans there were Cubs fans.
- Maddux was pretty good and more than kept us in the game. Of course the one long ball was really his only problem last night. Win #311...hello to Mr. Seaver.
- Everytime Lee steps to the plate you expect him to get on. As Yost showed last night, I think teams are going to start to IBB him more. The new Mr. Bonds?
- Neifi and Corey both got 2 hits....finally!!!
- The bullpen is the most unreliable bunch of crap I have ever seen. Everytime a new releiver came in, it seemed like I was more worried than the last.
- Weurtz looked HORRIBLE, Remmmy did a GREAT job striking out Overbay and Lee to get out of the jam in the 7th, but they looked bad in the 8th.
- Great move (no brainer I guess though as everyone else sucked and he had no other choice)by Dusty to bring in Dempster in the 8th in that jam. I HATE when closers come in the 8th, but Dempster had not pitched in forever and this was a game that the Cubs really needed to win.
- Saving the best for last....What a play by Neifi Perez in the 8th inning. The Defensive play of the year so far for the Cubs. Very, very possibly saved the game. It was amazing he got to it, then amazing he got the ball to Walker so fast and even more amazing they were able to turn the DP. If Neifi doesn't get to that ball it is 5-5, with 1 out men on 1st and 2nd. Hopefully we can look back on that play as a start of another good streak.
Don't look now but JB was almost at .300 last night. He was in the dumps just 2 weeks ago, good comeback.
Like I said yesterday, I am no where as worried about the offense as I am the pitching (mostly relief pitching). If the starters go their 7 IP and give up nore more than 3-4 runs and the bullpen can hold their own, the offense will score enough runs to win lots of games. With Wood and Prior coming back in the next week or so, hopefully they can pitch well and take inning away from the bullpen.
the bullpen has been muddled
the bullpen has been muddled and ineffective for the last few years...when is Rothschild's contract up?
I tremble to think of what Mike Maddux would do with the talent of this Cubs' staff...
Wuertz is becoming over used.
Wuertz is becoming over used.
Wuertz is definitely getting
Wuertz is definitely getting cooked.
Hats off to Dempster for looking so sharp last night after not pitching in a game for over a week.
Fanzone: "Wuertz is becoming
"Wuertz is becoming over used."
How so?? In June (20 days old), he has a total of 8 IP in 9 appearences. He is "supposedly" our 2nd best bullpen guy, so he should be used more than others. But that is not a lot of work.
Now his last 4 appearences he has looked very bad, even if he hasn't given up many runs. Here is his line:
3.0 IP, 6.00 ERA, 8 hits, 2 ER, 5 BB
His WHIP is now 1.50 on the year. That is a VERY dangersous number and has been lucky to only have his ERA at 3.58 (example is Remmy bailing him out last night).
Him being our setup man shows how dangerously flammable this bullpen really is.
Like I stated before, hopefull Wood and Prior can help the starting pitching go deeper in games, so we can use the bullpen less and less. They seem to do better when they only have to be used for no more than 6 outs.
Interesting to see someone
Interesting to see someone blame Rothschild for the bullpen problems. Seems to me he's working with what's he's given. Plus, if you want to blame him, then how about giving him some credit for Rusch, Weurtz, Mitre, Wellemyer and how well they've done?
Out of Wuertz' 9 appearances
Out of Wuertz' 9 appearances this month, 4 have come in the last 5 games. During this stretch, he did not appear on two straight days as Friday was an offday and he did not pitch in Sat's blowout.
Before they do anyhting
Before they do anyhting outside the organization to bolster the bullpen, the Cubs should give Jermaine Van Buren a shot.
Yes, I know he's not on the 40-man rosyer, but there are several DFA candidates:
1. Richard Lewis (who couldn't even hit .200 in AAA, before being sent back to AA for the third year in a row, so he should be able to pass through waivers without being claimed, and it's no great loss if he does get claimed by another club);
2. Cliff Bartosh (who has little value--even as a LOOGY, such that there is a good chance he also would clear waivers if the Cubs tried to send him to AAA outright);
3. John Koronka (who obviously does not have the talent to pitch in the majors);
4. Joe Borowski (who is still owed about $1.3 mil this year, but who is also pretty clearly washed-up and is too dangerous to be used in a meaningful situation).
So there are plenty of candidates to be removed from the 40-man roster to make room for Jermaine Van Buren.
And should it be necessary to option Van Buren back to Iowa for some reason before September 1st, it's no big deal that his option clock will have started, since he's no "spring chicken" (he turns 25 next week).
For those of you not familiar with Jermaine Van Buren, he was signed by the Colorado Rockies after the Rockies drafted him in the 2nd Round of the 1998 Draft out of a Mississippi high school, but he struggled in "Lo-A" ball for five seasons (1998-2002) before getting released.
He then signed with an independent club in Texas (the Fort Worth Cats of the Central League) in 2003, and it was there that he turned his career around. The Cubs purchased his contract from Ft. Worth prior to the 2004 season, and he has pitched well at various stops (Lansing, West Tenn, and Iowa) in the Cubs system over the past year and a half. He is currently the closer at Iowa.
Like Brandon Sing and David Kelton, Jermaine Van Buren will be a six-year minor league free-agent after this season if he is not added to the Cubs 40-man roster within ten days after the end of the regular MLB season, so the Cubs might as well bring him up right now.
I have always felt that
I have always felt that instead of going around looking for proven veterans for bare minimum salary (people like Macias and Wilson), it is better to get your AAA and AA guys on the 40 man rosters more time in the majors. I don't mean they should be brought up and get their clocks started without USING them; but to get them in and start getting them meaningful playing time. Same with the relief pitchers. Most relievers are failed starters anyway. They have 1-2 out pitches that can be utilised for 1 inning. Get people who have high K/BB ratio from the minors and put them in spots that are now being used by people like Bartosh and Borowski. It is unfathomable that these two stiffs are getting more use than a better pitcher like Wellemeyer. Dusty's insistence on 'proven veterans' will doom us again if he canot recognise what is in front of his face. Bartosh and Borowski are cooked. Remlinger cannot get out lefties. Corey is not a front of the order batter. Neifi is regressing to his career mean. I would rather have Walker and Barrett bat 1 and 2 than the black hole that is Neifi and Corey.
J Burnitz is quietly having
J Burnitz is quietly having season where he is on pace to hit roughly:
J Burnitz .300 30 100
A Ramirez .300 36 100
D Lee .400 45 160
M Barrett .290 20 80
N Perez .285 15 60
Maddux is just about on pace to win 15 games. 15-9
Reds just fired manager Dave
Reds just fired manager Dave Miley. He was 125-164 since he took over in July of 2003.
Interin manager will be Jerry Narron.
Bluewater Boats, are you
Bluewater Boats, are you suggesting that statistics can give us a ballpark idea of how certain players will be doing at the end of the year? Cause I'm quite certain that you've told us before that stats can't tell us anything about the future.
Let's face it. Corey
Let's face it. Corey Patterson will never see another good pitch again until he stops swinging at the really bad ones.
10 man- Has anybody thought
10 man-
Has anybody thought about checking Cpat's eyes?
I know its the song of the truly desperate, but I've seen him get good pitches and he takes them for strikes.
Maybe a pair of those evil looking red contact lenses might help? Otherwise everyone who's ever seen this kid's potential is completely whacked.

Soler likely to return Sunday, Maddon says
Right now, I'd like to see the Mets first, Giants 2nd.
I believe that since most of the team from last years' NLCS is on the squad this year, they will really amp their game up even more to kick their ass in payback for 2015.
The Giants just do not have the depth in years past, and I think all things equal - and at Wrigley - they could handle them.
I do not want to see the Cards, period. Or their fans, media, or Joe Buck.
I don't want to play Braves in the first round. Any friggin team in the league can win 3 of 5..I hate the first round. Furthermore, I wanted to play the Marlins in 2003 and the Mets over Dodgers last year.
With that said in reverse order:
3. Cardinals: It will be devastating to lose in the first round, but even worse to their main rival. It is increased incentive for the Cardinals, especially after last year. Cards would have nothing to lose, Cubs have everything to lose.
2. Giants: Rotation in the playoffs scare me a bit, but what a lousy team.
1. Mets--because of the losses in the rotation
2. Giants--because they're not the team they were BUT they maybe have bullshit even-year magic?
3. Cardinals--because rivalry and not making the playoffs hurts them more than losing in the NLDS plus getting eliminated by them in the playoffs would make for horrible sports commentary next throughout next season.
Who's asking?
CLE/DET rained out last night already, possible rain-outs in New York (vs. Baltimore), Boston(vs. Toronto) and Philly(vs. Mets) this weekend too.
Not only games involving playoff spots that would need to be played, but any that involve home field advantage.
I got the first one! Second one I'm not even sure what even/odd betting is.
any opponent preference for NLDS?
Mets are down to 1 great pitcher instead of 4. Syndegaard may pitch Sunday which means if Mets win the WC game, he'd be set up for Game 1. There's a chance they clinch a spot by Sunday so he'd pitch the WC and then we'd probably get Colon for Game 1. They've certainly had the hottest bats over the last week and month out of the WC options.
A couple of Cub related puzzles.
Can't teach height and thinness
Hopefully Pirates don't call up A. Lincoln.
j.buchanan going friday...should be...baseball...or something like it.
Wow. I didn't know they could do that.
Nice for Willson, not so much for Addy.
Game is officially called...also officially a tie.
Stats count, no make-up date of course.
Yeah -- seeing the weather -- I hope KB and Rizz are inside, wrapped in blankets and drinking hot chocolate.

We came to Quincy for a water ski tournament and decided on a B&B instead of a regular hotel. We have stayed at many B&B's and the McFarlin House surpassed them all! Richard and Tina are lovely and the breakfast was awesome. The rooms are absolutely beautiful! We will be back!

Stayed over the 4th of July weekend. This was our 4th or 5th stay with Richard and Tina. Richard makes the best breakfast every morning. Very charming old house. Clean rooms and free wifi. Will definitely be staying here again in the future.

One of my favorite Bed & Breakfast Inns ever! Richard & Tina have created a fabulous retreat in this gorgeous old mansion. You feel so welcome and all comforts are generously provided. I think they have thought of just about everything to make a guest delighted to stay. I loved staying in the sports room with all of the baseball memorabilia. Richard is a good cook and spirited story teller, so now I'm looking for an excuse to go back..........it sure is fun.

My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Richard and Tina. It was a very cold weekend and when we arrived our room was nice and toasty. We watched movies explored the house and had the most wonderful breakfast. I would definitely recommend the McFarlin House to anyone wanting to get away for a much needed rest. Thank you, Richard and Tina.

My wife wanted something special to experience our 2nd anniversary. I also wanted to get away from the city. The result was a three day and two night trip to the northwest of Tallahassee, FL. It had been a long time since I stayed at a B&B, remembering that there were no TVs, phones, laundries, elevators, etc; but given that we now have cell phones, I gave it a try. What I found was atypically friendly hosts, but still the old house with creaky wooden floors, no counter space in the bathroom, too few electrical outlets, old shower equipment, very DARK rooms, and a very HOT room that we stayed in. Others there complained of being too cold, so we got the hottest room in the house. I cut my foot tripping twice on the black rocking chair between the bed and bathroom, due to the very dark room, with lighting too faint to light them well. The bathtub was unusual, leaking water out as you try to bathe. Yet this was the only B&B I have ever visited that offered a supper. And they allowed you to schedule the time up until 7 pm. I even called from a state park saying that I would be late, and they held supper for us. And the supper was huge and excellent. The breakfasts likewise were excellent. So, it was everything that people usually want from a B&B, including an old historical house with period furnishings. Lots of history for that small town northwest of Tallahassee. I guess you need to come with the appropriate B&B mentality. I had not been to one in years, feeling the strangeness of stepping back in time, like stepping into a Charles Dickens "Great Expectations" movie. There are many parks an hour away along the Gulf coast, but the many small towns that surround Tallahassee are pretty depressing. Maybe you would enjoy shopping for "antiques" in stores around the area, but it just seemed run down to me. I far prefer the area along the Gulf coast that we visited.

After many hours of driving on a dark, rainy, cold night...what a joy to see McFarlin House all lit up and waiting for us. A lovely and comfortable home! Breakfast was yummy!

Israel Among the Nations
In 1996, Ehud Barak, who was then Israel's foreign minister and would later serve as prime minister, characterized Israel as "a...
Speaker: Robert Danin, Eni Enrico Mattei Senior Fellow for Middle East and Africa Studies, Council on Foreign Relations
March 19, 2013
Nearly two months after national elections, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was able to form a new coalition government comprising four parties and totaling 68 out of 120 Knesset members. Robert Danin, CFR's Eni Enrico Mattei senior fellow for Middle East and Africa studies, highlights three things to know about Israel's new government:
Divisions on the Palestinian Issue: Netanyahu's coalition is deeply divided over prospects for peace with the Palestinians, Danin says. "Should the United States successfully launch a peace process with the Palestinians that begins to make real progress, then Netanyahu's coalition will feel the strain," he cautions.
Domestic Focus: The new Israeli government is unique in that it is committed to addressing some of Israel's core domestic issues, such as the separation of religion and state, achieving more equitable burden sharing, and reforming Israel's electoral and education systems, says Danin. The government's domestic focus means it will leave key strategic issues like Israel's stance on Iran's nuclear capabilities to the country's national security establishment, he predicts.
Staying Power: Contrary to conventional wisdom, Danin predicts that Netanyahu's new government "could be around for some time to come." More than a third of Israel's newly elected parliament members, including Netanyahu's new core coalition partners and key cabinet ministers Lapid and Bennet, have never served in government before, and are unlikely to call for new national elections in the short term, he says.

Boehringer Ingelheim will join Zhangjiang Biotech & Pharmaceutical Base Development Co. (ZJ Base) in building a €35 million ($45 million) cGMP biopharmaceuticals facility in Pudong, Shanghai, the companies said.
Up to 65 jobs will be based at the new facility, which will be the first established by a leading international biopharmaceuticals manufacturer in China to use mammalian cell culture technology. The facility will include technical process development as well as cGMP manufacturing, and will be ready for operations in early 2016.
"With a number of innovative medicines being developed by a cluster of middle to small-sized innovative companies in Zhangjiang, plus the government support, we plan to initiate the CMO manufacturing framework at this plant on a trial basis," Lanzhong Wang, ZJ Base's general manager, said yesterday in a statement. "This will provide an effective platform for middle and small-sized companies to industrialize their innovations. Thus, it will greatly prompt the development of China's biopharmaceuticals manufacturing industry."
Boehringer Ingelheim has stepped up contract manufacturing activity, even rebranding what was Boehringer Ingelheim Biopharma Contract Manufacturing into Boehringer Ingelheim BioXcellence™. The company hopes its new name will persuade smaller drug developers it can provide an entire production technology chain from DNA to fill and finish under one roof at its facilities in Biberach (Germany), Vienna (Austria), and Fremont (USA).
Christian Boehringer, chairman of Boehringer Ingelheim's shareholders committee, said in the statement that the company's partnership with ZJ Base "is an important step in our global China strategy, as it opens a further opportunity for Boehringer Ingelheim to participate in the growing demand for high-quality biopharmaceuticals in China."
The new facility will expand the presence Boehringer Ingelheim has had since 1994 in China. The company carries out research, development, manufacturing, and marketing activities in the world's most populous nation, where it finished last year with €358 million ($472.5 million) in sales, up 32% from 2011 but still a small piece of BI's €14.7 billion in total sales worldwide ($19.4 billion).
Two years ago, Boehringer Ingelheim said it would spend €70 million ($91 million at the time) to expand an existing company plant at Shanghai's Zhangjiang High-Tech Park that opened in 2002 at a cost of $41 million. Shanghai is also home to other company operations, including the Asian Veterinary R&D center, where more than 30 scientists were working on improved vaccines for China and Southeast Asia at the end of 2012; and a chemical Center of Competence (CoC) opened in 2010.
China's 12th Five-Year Plan (2011–15) identified biopharma as one of seven strategic sectors expected to comprise a combined 8% of GDP. China hopes to expand its biopharma workforce from 250,000 to 1 million jobs by 2015.

Idea of the Day: How to Achieve Unity in Ukraine
The recent events in Ukraine have raised the specter of expanded Russian military intervention, political upheaval, and civil war. Moscow's reputation in much of the country and in the international community is in tatters and is unlikely to recover soon, so long as the occupation of Crimea continues. The threat of greater U.S. and European sanctions against Russia remains if the situation does not improve.
For now, however, the West should act on an emergent opportunity to help Ukrainians keep their country together.

Size Still Matters
Resident takes city to court over water metering system
By Christie Chisholm
In Albuquerque, approximately 10,000 households are paying more than they need to on their water bill. That's right, you heard me. And if you belong to one of these households, you've probably been paying extra since you moved into your home—which for some, could be more than 20 years ago. The potential extra cost can be found in the "fixed" charge that comes with your water bill that's based on the size of the water meter that you have on your system. It may not seem like much at first but when added up every month over the course of 23 years, it's certainly enough to get Gary Williams, a retired military officer, riled up. It's also apparently enough to get him to take the city to court.
Thin Line
By Tim McGivern
Bloggers united. If you're looking for a small taste of home-cooked news, opinion and sincere social blather, there's a new website, www.dukecityfix.com, that deserves some praise for its design, informed analysis and occasional sophistication. If you are a local news hound who just can't succumb to the Albuquerque Journal's sleep-inducing product, and pine for the days when the Albuquerque Tribune was one of the finest mid-market dailies in the nation, you might go to this blog for respite. I'm not saying it's comprehensive, but if you look at what a group of local volunteers are doing online to promote the city and foster dialogue among our citizens, you will see further reason for the decline of mainstream newspaper readership. Don't get me wrong; someday these folks could wind up competing with our own feisty alt.weekly, and as the day approaches, well, let the games begin! Competition, in theory, breeds better quality. Check them out and see for yourself.

Council Watch
Double Header
By Laura Sanchez
After slogging through a Committee of the Whole meeting, councilors tucked into their regular April 18 agenda. Councilor Sally Mayer's bill reinstating the community mediation program passed unanimously, as did Councilor Martin Heinrich's bill requiring that city buildings over 5,000 square feet meet Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standards. Councilor Tina Cummins' bill bringing Albuquerque fire safety regulations in line with the recently adopted International Fire Code passed unanimously. And Councilor Craig Loy got a unanimous go ahead for his bill allowing a disabling "boot" to be placed on the vehicles of first-time DWI offenders. Councilor Eric Griego again pushed the Downtown arena negotiations, calling for either a viable financing proposal from Arena Management Company or a new bidding process. Councilor Miguel Gomez, hinting at a competing plan, called for a second hearing, once more halting the bill.
Environmentalism, R.I.P.
By Jim Scarantino
Just when I was getting ready to celebrate Earth Day, environmentalism kicked the bucket.
Twenty-five leaders of large enviro groups were recently interviewed for "The Death of Environmentalism," a report presented at a recent conference of the Environmental Grantmakers Association, and authors Mark Shellenberger and Ted Nordhaus concluded the environmental movement has become a relic and a failure. They're right. The movement too narrowly defines environmental problems and relies almost exclusively on shortsighted technical solutions. It lacks new ideas. Easy access to foundation funding has let it grow fat and complacent.
So there are almost 100 bands in this town that are better than Vertigo Venus? Wow. Who knew Albuquerque was such a hot bed of talent. Maybe they should move the SXSW from Austin to Albuquerque. Well, that ought to teach any other bands from Detroit a good lesson about moving to New Mexico. What do you do when you're that weak? Crawl, baby, crawl.
Odds & Ends
By Devin D. O'Leary
Dateline: Argentina—Rock star Andres Calamaro was recently charged with saying that he would like to smoke marijuana--a statement he made more than 10 years ago. "I feel so good that I could smoke a joint," Calamaro told a crowd of 100,000 fans on Nov. 19, 1994 in La Plata, 30 miles south of Buenos Aries. Calamaro, 43, figured he was off the hook in 1995 when a group of enraged parents hauled him before a judge, who dismissed the charges of justifying a crime. Undeterred, the parents spent the last 10 years looking for a less "liberal" judge. "This trial is absurd. It's Kafkaesque," Calamaro's lawyer, Jose Stefanuolo told a crowd of fans who came to support the musician. Stefanuolo says he will try to get the case dismissed. If that doesn't work, he will invoke the statute of limitations.

Riverhead's Main Street Bets on the Unique
Long Island's Downtown Riverhead has endured a long slump as big-box and outlet stores diverted shoppers from its once-thriving Main Street. But now the area is hoping for a boost.
This spring, several new establishments have opened, a $20 million Hyatt hotel on East Main Street is near completion and a riverfront park has undergone a significant face-lift. These and other development projects are injecting optimism, local leaders and business owners say, into a downtown that has struggled for more than a decade with rows of vacant storefronts.
"It just all seems to be happening at once," says Nancy Swett of I Love Riverhead, a grass-roots advocacy group. "People are taking notice, and there's a new positive feeling."
Riverhead, situated along the Peconic River and between the forks of Long Island's East End, is home to county offices, courthouses and numerous office suites. Its population is around 33,500, according to the 2010 Census, an increase of more than 20% over the past decade.
But development along Route 58, where the Tanger Outlets and other strip malls are located, as well as the closing of major downtown stores such as Sears and Swezey's, took a heavy toll on the former shopping hub.
The large spaces vacated by the department stores have struggled to find tenants. Town Supervisor Sean Walter predicted that about half of the downtown's still-empty buildings would ultimately be demolished, but he says that in the meantime, more gradual efforts to revive the strip are working.
"We're rebuilding Main Street the old-fashioned way: Block by block, store by store," according to Mr. Walter.
He adds that he has been negotiating with a multiplex movie theater to come to Main Street, and that seven new stores have opened on Main since he took office 18 months ago.
Business owners are hoping that the new stores and restaurants will lure shoppers for unique experiences they can't find with the national chains on Route 58. New boutiques include the Red Collection, a furniture and antiques store. Independent eateries include Dark Horse and Haiku Sushi (both opened last year), the Riverhead Diner & Grill (reopened last year after changing ownership), the Riverhead Project (opened two weeks ago) and the anticipated Cody's BBQ and Grill.
"I feel that Riverhead has all the elements for a major recovery," says Dee Muma, who opened Dark Horse in September in a building she bought and renovated, and another Main Street restaurant, Tweed's Restaurant and Buffalo Bar, 12 years ago. "When we opened the first restaurant it was kind of like a punch line—'You put a good restaurant where?'"
The median sales price for houses in Riverhead was $347,300 in December, according to Zillow.com, compared with $396,000 in December 2006. Its moderately priced homes, especially compared with pricy vacation markets in the nearby Hamptons and North Fork, are a draw for both first-time home buyers and those who are downsizing, says Mary Ellen Ellwood of Prudential Douglas Ellimann.
"The prices have come down more in Riverhead than in some of the neighboring areas," Ms. Ellwood says. "It's much more affordable."
Improvements such as a new community garden along the Peconic, a synthetic ice rink that is under construction and the rehabilitated Grangebel Park are helping to spur the hoped-for transformation, says Ray Pickersgill, president of the local business improvement district. His group has helped to organize several events, from cardboard boat races to outdoor concerts, aimed at luring shoppers and diners to Main Street.
"People go to Tanger, they go to Splish Splash [water park], a lot of people come to the [Atlantis Marine World] aquarium, but most people don't come further downtown," Mr. Pickersgill says. "So we want to bring people down here to experience it, and at the same time bring more interest" from those considering opening up businesses of their own.
Town leaders are hoping for further improvements with the opening of the Hyatt Place Long Island/East End. The 100-room hotel is accepting reservations beginning Aug. 1.
Dennis McDermott, former owner of the popular Frisky Oyster restaurant in Greenport on the North Fork, last month opened the Riverhead Project, an upscale restaurant in an empty bank building. He says he sees opportunity in Riverhead because its location is easily accessible to residents of eastern Long Island and to vacationers on the North and South forks. In addition, he thinks the area is ripe for rediscovery.
"I know it's been kind of blighted for the last 10 years; that doesn't scare people away, it almost entices people," Mr. McDermott says, comparing it to New York City neighborhoods such as Williamsburg and TriBeCa. "There's a certain appeal to finding a restaurant where no one would think to look. It's almost like they're pioneers."
To change negative perceptions, Mr. McDermott says he has been trying to rebrand the downtown area, calling it "the Emerging District Neighborhood."
"When you talk about downtown Riverhead, it has a not-so-good connotation," he says. "Emerging District Neighborhood sounds so much better….It's starting to catch on."
