All reader reviews by Shaz
Pizza Express (High Holborn)
Last week my girlfriend and I decided we should meet up after a hard day's work and spend our evening dining in central London together. Our choice of restaurant? It had to be Pizza Express on High Holborn.
Neither of us had ever eaten at Pizza Express before. The decision to dine there however was an easy one. We were always impressed by its chic external décor at each and every branch we've passed by in Romford, Gants Hill and the City of London.
The branch at High Holborn is no exception. It looks exceptionally pretty and inviting on the outside. "Good we must try it" I thought. So we stepped inside and even though it wasn't particularly late (9pm) there was no one at the door to 'meet, greet and seat' us. This was a bit of mystery as the restaurant looked distinctly, well…vacant. So its not like the all the staff were occupied. Anyway after a short period (which seemed like forever) of waiting around, franticly looking for a reception counter of some sorts, a member of staff came by and that small boob was quickly rectified.
We were shown to our lovely round table, complete with an equally lovely plastic flower sitting there in a quaint vase. While we waited for our menus I took in the atmosphere (cosy and quite romantic) as well as the internal décor which was very stylish. This is one of the poshest looking, 'everyman' Italian restaurants you could go to. The subtle art deco lighting, the zinc topped work surfaces, the polished wooden tables and the marble floor gave off a distinct air of what Germans would call "ker-vol-itee."
Our waitress then appeared and gave us our menus, now this isn't strictly relevant but boy was she pretty, as were the other three that I could see swooning about. She was an excellent waitress: attentive, polite, patient, helpful and knowledgeable.
She came back shortly with our starters- mixed olives in a herb sauce and our drinks. The service was sublime, she brought all our meals out quickly, efficiently and topped up our glassess when she could see they were empty. "Truly remarkable this place" I thought, not only does it have the best waitressing staff, but it has the best service of any everyman restaurant I'd ever been to.
Doubtless if you're an Italian food fanatic, there are several small reasons why you're probably thinking that you too should dine here if you haven't already. But don't. Because almost everything else about this place is rubbish.
We'll start with the interior décor, the whole point of a posh "pizza-pasta" restaurant is that inherent Italianess. Yes the interior design is lovely, be in no doubt about that, but its more of a Mayfair yuppie affair than Milan. The actual size of the starters portion was woeful, even Scrooge himself would say its miserly. To add insult to injury it's nearly one and half times the price of what Nandos would charge you for a larger portion which tastes exactly the same…and I haven't finished mauling this place yet.
My main course consisted of a 14" stone baked margherita pizza with a prawn and avacado green leaf salad, drizzled with a sweet honey mustard dressing. The salad wasn't so much as drizzled- as was drowned in the bloody thing, overpowering all the delicate flavours of its main ingredients with an artificial tasting, sickly sweet dressing.
But the worst thing was the pizza. Yes it's light and fluffy, but my god when I ordered it I wanted it to be stone baked, not stone-bloody cold. It was dreadful. To cap off this night of culinary misery we were served the most unoriginal portion of cheesecake. Ever. My girlfriend stated openly that it's like they ran out of the stuff and raided Wetherspoon's freezer- which just so happens to be a couple of doors away. The dessert tasted like cheap pub grub.
Sure, they tried to hide its apparently humble origins by sprinkling strawberry sauce all over it as well as adding a token cherry and some savory dusting. But that's like being wanted by the police and deciding you can evade capture by simply wearing a disguise consisting of nothing more than a clip on moustache. Its not going to fool anyone.
The only saving grace was the fact that the service was great and the bill presented great value for money, coming in under £20.00. Such a shame…it looked so good on the outside.

Monihar Balti & Tandoori
British food is generally regarded as--wait for it--complete rubbish. Everyone says it-the French as well as the rest of the Continent, even the Yanks- stereotypical burger munchers find the stuff revolting-- and unhealthy. Its why our children are so obese and I can guarantee it's why we're pretty much terrible on the international scene at sports--people say its down to the training, breeding and education. Yeah right and diet.
Culinary wise then we're not the greatest nation, its just as well then Indian food is Britain's best loved dish. In Great Britain the Indian food industry is, quite frankly, huge. It employs more people than the entire British steel industry. With all this in mind I toddled off to my local Indian- Monihar Balti and Tandoori restaurant in Chadwell Heath, Romford in boy-racers-ville Essex.
At first glance when I gazed upon the premises, I was distinctly unimpressed. I know I'm hyper-critical forever searching for the imperfect amongst the perfect, but on this instance it wasn't just me-even my girlfriend wasn't at all impressed. Her facial expression said it all: "do we have to go in?" The shop's sign is horribly garish, the front of the premises is almost entirely glass, allowing onlookers to see inside, or even casual passer by's to notice you inside the restaurant- not something you really want when you're bit of a messy eater or want a quite meal with your other half.
Although there is parking on the actual road the restaurant is situated upon and there's a little car park opposite that allows for free parking during the restaurant's opening hours, the location as whole, quite frankly is horrid. Next door to a bathroom spares store and other similar shoddy buildings- the restaurant looks as out of place as you would serving up dung as a meal at a family barbecue.
All in all things aren't looking great then, after dawdling outside for 10 minutes you finally decide to go inside and your fears are compounded, its tiny in there. Its like eating in your living room. A traditional colour scheme and subtle art-deco lighting try to disguise the fact the eating area is the size of a mouse's pants. But it just doesn't succeed, eating capacity and I'm not joking is no more than I'd say 30 people, coupled with a carpet that could've come from any pub in Bradford, makes it so far appear that this place sounds like a recipe for total disaster.
To review, it's tiny, not in a great location and everyone can stare at you- like you normally would at a creature at the zoo. All in all then the restaurant taken as a whole you've probably come to the conclusion that "this place seems about as appealing as contracting an STD"… from someone you later discover is a transvestite.
At this point you're also probably thinking I've slated this restaurant into absolute oblivion and that you shouldn't waste your time making a reservation.
But you'd be wrong… Because, deep breath, I liked it immensely. The food and the service was exquisite. There's no other way to describe it. For people who just go out to enjoy good food, this is the place for them—no "ifs" no "buts" the food is fabulous. Starters was standard fare: a sheikh kebab, poppadoms, a portion of samosa's and onion barji's complimented perfectly by a selection of chutnies.
The main course however is where the real eating pleasure lies. Our little contingent ordered Pilau rice, Bombay potatoes, Chicken Jalfrezi and Saag Paneer along with a half-decent leafy salad and an array of japati's and peshwari naans'. The chicken and the potatoes were fabulous. Rich, beautifully balanced and zingy, not as buttery or melt-in your mouth wonderful as in Bollywood Grill but it has more texture and kick, in a word it's spicier. More how most people envisage a traditional Indian curry dish should be--and that's a good thing.
Slightly less successful was the saag paneer, which was far better than the tripe I ate at Paakwaan and bland-to-the-point-of-banality stuff I tried at Passage to India, Ilford. It tasted quite nice; having endearing qualities such as being creamy and rich but I couldn't help but notice it lacked effervescence or the depth of the sample I had at Bollywood Grill. As for the Pilau rice--it was just like every other rice I've ever tasted-- commendable but also forgettable. On balance then I'd have to say Passage to India, Docklands marginally pips it to the post in terms of overall quality.
Nevertheless for afters we had filter coffee's, and convalesced about how vindicated we were we didn't judge a book by its cover, by that I mean Monihar's stodgy external decorations. The smallness of the premises in fact grew on me--it made my date feel cosy and more romantic. Then came the bill--at just over £25 including soft drinks, this has to be the best value restaurant 'quality' Indian restaurant I've been to. The quality of the food at twice the price would not altogether be unjustified. But at places where food at these higher prices are charged, Monihar makes them look ridiculous as a man who thought it would be appropriate to come to watch the races at Ascot dressed as a clown, wearing stilts... on ladies day.
Frankly when you consider all this, its no one wonder the staff (ahem) modestly display their "best eating out guide" plaque from the Guardian newspaper on their premises. Coupled with music that soothes, rather than blasts you whilst you eat make this my all-round favourite Indian restaurant- the one I'd recommend and go myself most often.
And yet, somehow I know lots of you won't go, you'll think of reasons not to go, you may hate its surroundings, or it's location, or you might be put off by it's fish-bowl exterior styling. But don't be. If I've learnt anything during this dining experience--it is this-- don't judge a book by its cover.
Verdict: Despite the external image problems, the Indian I'd go to most often and my all round favourite--shame no one cares.

Passage to India
Much is made of "inflation" these recent months and weeks, the Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of England is panicking to get the inflation down to 2%- the Government's target. From what I remember from my A-level days studying economics is that inflation is--wait for it—is bad. Its not just bad for the 'economy' but for you and I.
You see the quickest way of curbing inflation is by monetary policy--increasing interest rates, meaning higher mortgage or loan repayments so that the consumer has less disposable income which means that they cannot spend as much. Which in turn means a reduction in supply and demand forces which means inflation (rising consumer prices) decreases--well that's the theory anyway.
Your probably thinking at this stage, thanks for that interesting lesson, but what's your point--I thought this was a restaurant critique--well stay with me. You see much is made about inflation, but in truth you'd struggle to notice it in everyday life. The food you buy from the supermarket costs no different then it did a month ago, nor does you gas bill-in fact British Gas has made a big deal about it reducing its prices. Electronic goods continually suffer from what people in the know call 'deflation.' At this stage you're probably thinking ah-ha! What about petrol! Sorry the recent increase is not due to the price of crude oil rising—its due to Gordon "I'm the premier waiting in the wings" Brown taxing the pumps.
Another area I haven't seen a rise in, is the prices at this week's restaurant Passage to India in Docklands, East London. I've been to this restaurant a couple of times over the last few years and even though the costs incurred by restaurants must have increased be it for petrol, raw ingredients and staff wages, so far as I can remember the prices of this Indian have stayed exactly the same.
That's good news for you and I--as consumers who have less spending power due to increasing interest rates. So what's the restaurant like? Well its layout and presentation, the arrangement of the tables for instance break no new ground. But you know what? I found the atmosphere was quite romantic--for an Indian anyway. The tone and the lighting was ever so slightly darker than your boggo standard Indian and on that Friday it made for a deliciously rich atmosphere.
The food? Well it puts to shame its 'branch' in Ilford, its right up there. The food was fabulous and incredibly, reasonably priced. For a party of five each having a three course meal for a total of £60 including drinks and service charges. The service was very commendable; not too quick so as to interrupt our fascinating conversations (apparently) but not so slow as to give one cause for complaint. One minor black mark against the restaurant was my "fresh" fruit desert--which clearly came out of a tin. All in all though there is little to complain about, so sit back and enjoy the food--you'd never think you'd be blighted with "lower spending power."
Verdict: One of the top five Indian restaurants you can go to in the South-East today

Bollywood Grill
As a rule a restaurant outside of central London should have a name vaguely associated with the kind of food it serves, be easy to find and have a decent size car park or failing that one nearby. The subject of this week's review is "Bollywood Grill" in Ilford, in East London and on the face of it meet's none of those criteria.
The name "Bollywood Grill" for example, sure you can gather its an Indian (Bollywood is India's version of Hollywood.) But is it easy to find? "No" comes my reply-- its on the 2nd floor of the "Bollywood Bowling" complex. Sure if you're walking there its not a problem, but when you're driving around in your car, the restaurant's sign's well out of your view, as a result if you don't know the area you're not going to find it without stopping for directions.
The second problem is the road it's located on, the location itself is pretty good, there's a cinema next door and the road is very wide, but there is absolutely no parking whatsoever. So by now you're late for your booking, for a place you can't find and now you can't find anywhere to park. Happily there is a car park behind the complex. But you can't just turn into that road and park.
Like most of East London these days it's a maze of one-way systems and no-entry roads. You have to do an amazing detour which takes you right the way around Ilford town centre, if you don't know you're way around, it will take you an age to find it.
After all that you're probably at your wits end and in such a foul mood you probably feel like turning back home and writing off the whole night. But don't. The complex may be in the middle of a parade of shops but inside it's bigger than you'd imagine. It's like the TARDIS in there. I entered the restaurant, where the marketing bumf stated they could seat nearly 100 people and after having looked around I'm forced to agree.
As you enter the restaurant you'll realise its beautifully decorated with shades of an ancient Arabian theme, tastefully done. Its not your traditional Indian with your shag-pile carpets and sombre booths--its better. The whole place feels light and airy. On your left as you reach the reception, there is a picture display of people who have spent time here. But it's not Joan from number 37, there are some right heavyweights and even I, a person not at all versed in all things Bollywood can recognise them without a second glance. How does Raghav grab you? No? Chris Eubank? Try Sharukh Khan and if its good enough for him to happily have taken his picture here, its certainly good enough for a regular Joe like me.
Take the seats and the dining arrangements—the seats are probably the best I've perched my backside on and the positioning of the tables, cutlery and the quality of the fabrics on the table are exquisite. The staff are well dressed and well versed, a good thing considering the menu is the most varied and vast I've seen in all my dining experience. Myself and my partner had a 3 course meal starting off with parni puri- a very refreshing and tangy starters. But the real delight is the main course. Without a doubt the food is the best I have ever tasted. It's a joy to savour every mouthful.
Forget your preconceptions of an oily student curry this is top-notch stuff. The word I'm tempted to say is 'perfect.' The chicken jalfrezi, paneer tika and bollywood (Bombay) potatoes were so fresh and creamy they melted on your mouth like a dream. The various naans ordered—peshwari (naan bread stuffed with coconut) and tandoori were delicious, as were the sauces which complimented the food perfectly, the salad—which in my view is outstanding because you can order it without onions! Something none of the restaurant's rivals can say.
As a rule if I go to a restaurant and I am expected to fork out over three times what it would cost me to go to the supermarket to get the raw ingredients myself and cook it at home. I judge the meal a success and think the prices charged as justified when I think to myself-- "Never in a million years could I make a meal as wonderful as that." That's the case here, over and over as I swallowed every delicious morsel I kept thinking that to myself.
At £35 including service charge and drinks for myself and my partner was fully justifiable in my view of the service (which was excellent) and the quality of the food (to die for in my view). Whilst that is higher than what I usually pay for a meal for two at a restaurant it's broadly in line with what I paid at rival Indian restaurants--Passage to India and at Pakwaan's. But you know what, in terms of food at least, Bollywood is leagues (I'm tempted to say light-years) ahead of these two or any other Indian I've ever been to.
One minor gripe I have is with the entertainment. Don't misunderstand me the atmosphere is genuinely warm and enthusiastic as well as lively. Perfect mood you're thinking. On Friday & Saturday nights they have a singer in (a la Parkview restaurant in North London) who has a great voice. But when music is played to accompany my meal, which I do want, I want it to be a soothing companion. In Bollywood I was blasted, you don't so much as hear the music you feel it pulsating through your bones. Its too loud, more fitting for a nightclub than a romantic meal on a Friday night with the wife and kids.
I could understand the music being this loud if it were a dinner and dance, like Pakwaan or Parkview is, but its not. In terms of atmosphere then it loses it by a shade to Ilford rival Passage to India--which is the most similar to it in tone and style, but Bollywood only loses marginally.
All things considered however it's one of the best restaurants I've been to and you know what it's the BEST Indian you can go to today by a long, long way.
Verdict: Pretty Much Perfect

Hello! I bought this flowergirl dress to see how the quality is and it has exceeded my expectations!! However, the Watermelon bow color is not what I had hoped. Since I need to order two additional dresses for my other flowergirls, would you be able to include an extra bow in the Orange color? I will then take it to the seamstress and ask her to replace it. The other two dresses I am ordering would also have Orange bows. Please let me know and I will place the order immediately. Thank you!

The incident happened as the woman drew up to the traffic lights at Atherleigh Way's junction with Newton Road, Leigh, in Lancashire.
One man leapt out of his car, snatched open the door of another vehicle and dragged out the driver on the busy junction.
A fight broke out and escalated until the plucky lady intervened. Now the 54-year-old woman, who has asked not to be named for fear of reprisals, is urging people to lock their doors when they are travelling to avoid finding themselves in the same situation.
And she hit out at other motorists who ignored the sight of two grown men fighting on the dual carriageway. She said: "There was one driver at the right side of me and one to the left. The one on the right went to the other car, opened the door and dragged out the driver.
"They were fighting and I got out of my car and walked to them. I said: 'Behave yourselves. Why are you doing this?' The first man paused and I was worried I was going to get hit so I said: 'If I have to I will get in between you but this is stupid, you are on a main road.'
"Luckily they just back into their cars. I spoke to the man who had been attacked and he said he was following the new speed limit on Atherleigh Way when the other bloke came up behind flashing and blowing his horn to get him to go faster. Then when they got to the lights he just opened the door and dragged him out."
The businesswoman photographed the fight on her mobile phone camera and has agreed to be a witness should police be involved.
She added: "If that's the kind of thing that is happening today we all need to lock our car doors. Luckily the man attacked was big and strong enough to defend himself but God knows what would have happened if it had been an elderly or small driver involved.
"Other people just sat in their cars and watched it happen, I couldn't believe it. I was quite shaken when I got back to work."

It was exactly one year ago today that I came to the Rainbow Bridge. My Mommy's heart is still hurting, and she still cries over me sometimes, but she knows how happy I am here, and she finds it comforting knowing that I'm not sick anymore.
I've had one full year of the best life I could ever wish for. No pain and no sickness, not even a little headache. I have more energy than I EVER had on earth (even tho some would find that hard to believe, bol). I can play fetch all day long and never get tired. I have wonderful angel friends.
I've been re-united with my pal, Spikey, who has lived here for seven years now. I sure missed her...........even tho she can be a pest at times. My cat, Tigger, even found me!! YES, I said "MY CAT".........I watched him be born and he always thought I was his daddy. We ate and slept together until that fateful day he got outside and Mom didn't know it and he went to the bridge.
I've witnessed the most amazing reunions when a human passes over the bridge and comes to take his doggy to heaven. I sometimes wish my humans would come for me, but I know it's not their time just yet. But SOMEDAY I'll hear that big bark in the sky and I'll know it's my turn to run to the end of the Bridge to wait. I'll wag my little stubby until it falls off coz I'll be so excited!! It will be nice to see my boy again. No one could throw a ball like my boy could.
I'm happy here. I love you all and miss you, but one day we'll be back together.
May 31, 2007, two weeks after I went to the Bridge, my puppies are being born. Maddie went into labor on the 30th around 2:00 p.m. and began hard labor around 11:00 p.m. with the first puppy being born at 12:50 a.m....a little girl. She is white with light brown markings like her Mommy; she is also fairly large and has the sweetest little cry. She has tiny pink feet and hands with the smallest toes you've ever seen. Maddie is learning to let the baby nurse but it's a challenge so Mom and my human sister are trying to help. Even Dad got out of bed to see the first puppy born!!
Right now Maddie is resting; Mom and my human sister have left the room so that IF any more pups are going to be born Maddie can have her privacy. They will check on her every half hour to make sure the baby is nursing and warm enough and if Maddie needs anything. After all Maddie is only seven months old; she's a very young mother. But she's being a good mom so far.
Skeeter, from the Bridge
1.) I NEVER played with any toy other than a tennis ball in my entire life.
2.) I knew the difference between the commands "move" and "down". When asked to move I would scoot over. When told to get down I would get down.
3.) I LOVED to sleep under a blanket on mom's bed; preferably when Mom was taking a nap too.
4.) I was a super fast kisser and even if you thought you were prepared for it I would get you before you were ready.
5.) I would pee in the house if I got mad at mom.
6.) I LOVED to roll in smelly stuff.
7.) I was really good about taking baths.

A police officer has pleaded guilty to offering to supply cocaine.
PC Sarah Greaves, from Doncaster, admitted a charge of making an offer to supply the class A drug at Derby crown court. The 29-year-old officer has been suspended from South Yorkshire police.
The court heard she made offers to supply the cocaine in text messages last year, but no drugs were ever exchanged.
Greaves, wearing a black suit and pale green blouse, appeared tearful as she stood alongside co-accused Adam Dickinson in the dock. Dickinson, 31, from Worksop, Nottinghamshire, also pleaded guilty to a charge of making an offer to supply cocaine.
The court heard the charges were brought following a "lengthy and very complex investigation" by South Yorkshire police into drug dealing in South Yorkshire.
Katherine Goddard, defending Greaves, said: "Text messages were exchanged but no drugs were in fact provided. The third party was interviewed by police. She had never received any drugs and was never charged with any offences."
Judge John Burgess adjourned sentencing for reports. He said the pair would be sentenced at a date to be set at Sheffield crown court. Granting the pair unconditional bail, Burgess told them a custodial sentence was likely.

|Multiple invocation of servlet with the same URL request
|Sun, 05 Jul 2009 21:36:30 GMT
Hello everybody, I'm developing a web application using Struts and Tomcat as deployment container. A servlet of the application retrieves a BLOB object (ca 1 - 4 MB) from the local database and registers this activity in another table, of the same db. Looking at the log and all the printouts, I have noticed that the servlet is invoked four times (four log entries in the database) instead of one. This is also shown by the four System.out lines I found in the screen when requesting the same URL. Anybody has any hint about this problem and how to resolve it? My idea is that the servlet might be relatively slow and thus Tomcat reiterates the request. Is this right? How can I disable this or increase the response time? Many thanks, Dan

We've seen rhinestone nails, glitter nails and little tiny heart nails, but how about the bejeweled look Katy Perry wore last night? How are you feeling about that?
The closeup:
The extreme closeup:
She's got a few stones planted on her nails with more concentrated on her middle and pinky fingers. Perhaps the idea is for them to look scattered, like the Big Bang happened on her hands for something. And some look silver while others (like the ones on her pinky) look gold.
It's different, but do you like the the idea? Sound off below!

Best Uses
I bought one in the Fall and it soon became a favorite. I bought two more in late Winter to round out my flannel collection. I made the mistake of looking at the Clearance section and now own five. These are well mad heavy duty shirts. They look great for any way you dress.
Best Uses
After paying extra money to get tall size, I think they added plenty to the tails but forgot the sleeves. Right out of the package without washing they are at least 2" short.
Best Uses
So pleased with the quality of this shirt! Duluth truly delivered their promise
Best Uses
A real nice warm shirt, and can serve as a jacket on warmer days
Best Uses
Here in Australia, It's really hard to find a good flannel shirt. The flannel shirts sold retail here are from Asia which have very thin material that rips, tears, and disintegrates within a very short time.
After being disappointed and annoyed at all the money I've been wasting on inferior product, and while international shipping costs makes my eyes water, I decided to try a non-local product - I bought one burlyweight free swingin' shirt and a normal free swingin' shirt in my order.
While I was mildly disappointed that this shirt is also made in Asia, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised just how much thicker and sturdier the material was, and also how warm it is when wearing it (we're still in the warm part of the year, but it's been raining and windy at the time of writing). I'm fairly top heavy and narrow in the waist as well, so I usually need shirts that are XL or even 2XL, so I was a little skeptical about the sizing, but I decided to go for a large (I could probably pass for a XL according to the chart, given that my neck and sleeve measurements fall into that category, and having a 45"+ chest) but I have to say the chart is pretty spot on.
This is easily the best flannel shirt I've ever worn. While I also like the standard shirt, I think I prefer the burlyweight shirt just at how much thicker and warmer it is. I'm definitely going to order some more of these.

Need advise on winter tires
Gents, does anyone live in northern areas to advise proper winter tires?
I'm looking for something to grind snow effectively, to look "angry" with RRO lift and to have studs. Speed rating less then 90mph (maybe even less).
Would like to see something like BFG TA/KO but with studs, but struggling to find any. Dozens of summer tires, but all of them are stud-less. Not good for me...
Re: Need advise on winter tires
Studded winter tires are not legal in Ontario so I cannot speak from experience about them (except that they worked well for my Dad 40 years ago when they were still legal), but I recall seeing some positive forum comments about the Nokian Hakka line of winter tires last fall. That manufacturer has several types that can be fitted with studs.
Here's a page link:
As for non-studded tires I have opted for Michelin LTX A/T2s, but I know there are also many avid supporters for the LTX M/S, Blizzaks, Destination ATs, GoodYear Silent Armors, etc.
Hopefully others can comment on their experience. There's lots of choice.
Re: Need advise on winter tires
I picked up a set of the Blizzak DM-V1. Studless, but nice large tread blocks and indeed this tire looks like it means business. Worked great in the gunk we had here.
Re: Need advise on winter tires
Goodyear Wrangler SilentArmor!!!!
Not only are they a kick a$$ A/T tire but they also have the snowflake logo which makes them legal for winter use. They were awesome during the big snow storms we(ontario/quebec) got hit with in February/March:thumbsup::thumbsup:
Re: Need advise on winter tires
Here is my winter setup BFG TA/KO's
Re: Need advise on winter tires
If you want a dedicated winter tire that functions well regardless of looks, the Blizzak DM-V1 and its predecessors generally win tire rack snow/ice traction contests, typically number 1 in the winter ratings. Other tires are better on dry pavement and mud, so I wouldn't call it an all around tire.
Re: Need advise on winter tires
Yeah, it's really hard to choose.
Thanks to all for your recommendations.
I didn't think of legal aspects of this question. In my place all tires are legal. So I guess I'll have to ask locally, but honestly, I don't see anything better than Nokian Hakkapelita 7 SUV, although they don't look as meaty as I would want them to look.
But they would certainly make my climbing on steep icy roads a lot easier. However I really doubt that these are any good in deep snow.
Re: Need advise on winter tires
I bought a set of General Arctic Altimax last year. Amazing. This was my first set of winter tires so I cannot comment on other brands. What I can say is IMHO... a dedicated set of winter tires is hands down the way to go.
Re: Need advise on winter tires
Re: Need advise on winter tires
Re: Need advise on winter tires
When I had fleet cars employer would only pay for Blizzaks. In that employer had a division that insured cars and trucks there must be something to that. I did ask and they said the control on ice was the reason.
Wife has Hakkapalita 5's on her Volvo XC-70 in winter and could climb a wall!
Re: Need advise on winter tires
Anyone have any experience with the new Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac with snow and ice? Studded?
I've been using Blizzak's for the winter and snow on my last cars, but was wondering if a more aggressive tread pattern coupled with studs would be better for the jeep for icy and snow roads. We do get a lot of snow.
Do you feel that a studded Duratrac would compare to the Blizzak's or be better?
I'm currently happy with the 32s upsized tires on the wk2: 275 65 18. And would like to go for that size for the winter months. However, I'm still debating if wouldnt go for a 17 inch tire with moab wheels... ;-)

Chargers Show Balance, Look To Get Over .500
Let's breakdown some of the things the San Diego Chargers did well last week against Arizona, and let's look ahead at this week's opponent: the division rival Oakland Raiders
Oh the difference a week makes. During the game against the Seahawks, I stewed and steamed the whole time. I was sitting on my couch, disgusted, yet hopeful. I was sweating. I couldn't relax, I guess from nerves. I hate to watch the Chargers lose, even more so the way they did.
This week, I couldn't have been more relaxed. Fortunate enough, in this case, to be in a region of the United States where I can actually watch the Chargers play a home game from the comfort of my own couch (legally), I watched with pure enjoyment as the Chargers easily handled the Arizona Cardinals.
Few teams will offer as little resistance as the Cardinals, but they are still a professional team which had a 2-1 record heading into the game. And they were still thoroughly beaten by our beloved Chargers.
* Let's get this out of the way first. It ended up not mattering. BUT, am I the only one who noticed this? When Sproles fumbled in the first quarter, Kerry Rhodes scooped up the ball and gained possession, then was tripped by Nick Hardwick. Rhodes fell down, got back up and returned the fumble for a TD. He should have been ruled down by contact. I thought that when I saw it live and then it was confirmed during all the replays. How does Norv not challenge down by contact?
* According to Elias stats service, Chargers first team in 23 years to lead league in offense and defense this late in a season
* Only 30 of the 71 points the Chargers have given up have come on normal offensive possessions for the opponent.
* Through 4 games, the Chargers have almost doubled their opponents net yards, 1803 to 942.
* Rivers to Gates is becoming a lot like some of the greatest sports duos of all time; Manning and Harrison, Stockton and Malone, Magic and Kareem, and Ochocinco and Owens. Okay, that last one's a joke. Here's to hoping we can hear "Rivers to Gates" for many more seasons.
* Former backup LB Kevin Burnett had the perfect response when asked what the Chargers' being ranked 1st in offense and defense meant. "Ask me in another 12 weeks (laughter). Ask me in another 12 weeks. Let's see if we are still having the same conversation."
* File this in the Underrated Aspect Of A Successful Running Game category: Norv pointed out Monday that Legedu Naanee had an outstanding game run blocking. "We were using him cracking on linebackers, moving him around. On some of those perimeter runs he's got the key block and he did an outstanding job."
* Congratulations to Mike "The Tugboat" Tolbert on his first 100 yard game. Too bad for him that Sproles makes as much money in one game as Tolbert will the whole season. Tolbert will get his due.
* Philip Rivers was gasping for air after he hung in the pocket to complete a pass and was pounded by a 290 pound muscle named Darnell Dockett. You have to appreciate the toughness Rivers brings to the Quarterback position week after week.
* And how about this: Rivers leads ALL QBs over past 50 years who have 50 starts or more with average of 27.9 points scored per game.
* Signs of life from Al Davis.
* Physicality - Injuries continue to pile up for the Chargers, especially at LB with Jyles Tucker's torn pectoral muscle against the Cardinals. And this week's game is not likely to offer any respite. Nick Hardwick estimates he's missed 20 games from injuries sustained against the very physical Oakland Raiders.
* Rushing - Get ready for more Tolbert/Mathews rushing attack. The Raiders have allowed a league worst 5.3 yards/carry. P.S. We still need a good nickname for that rushing tandem.
* The Streak - The Chargers look to win their 14th game in a row against the Raiders.
* Paul Oliver – Oliver has been getting strong reviews on his speed and instincts at Strong Safety. He'll likely be the main fill-in for Steve Gregory, who's suspended 4 games for PEDs.
* Asomugha v. Gates? – After Gates' dominance last week, could the Raiders match up their best cover corner with a Tight End the whole game? It'll be interesting to see what the Raiders try to do to neutralize Mr. Gates.
* Linebackers – It doesn't look like Darren McFadden will be available for the Raiders, but big Michael Bush is no slouch as a Running Back. Will the Chargers lack of depth and experience now available at Linebacker hurt against the run? Or what about against TE Zach Miller, who last week caught 11 passes for 122 yards?
* Road Game – The Chargers have been woeful on the road and wonderful at home. Can they buck the trend this week? Will the Black Hole crowd be able to stay into the game?
The dominance in last week's game was exciting, but I'm tempering my excitement until I see consistency on the road and at home against competent opponents.
Responding to the excitement of a convincing win over the Cardinals, Philip Rivers said, "We've got a lot of different guys who can do a lot of different things, but, remember, we're seven days removed from not being very good."
Time will tell.

Kevin burnett is the starting inside LB for the chargers, and their most versatile all around LB. If you call him a backup you obviously don't know your football.
LOL, I posted something similar to what the guy said above me maybe a week ago in regards to error and knowledge of our Bolts. This web page is filled with error. I think to myself, do people actually find themselves to credible? Burnett.. A backup? Um, hasn't he been starting for awhile now? The other week some guy reported that English had surgery on his KNEE... What a joke. You wonder if people actually take time to wipe all the crap off their butt before pulling their pants up.
Writing a free response article about the Chargers isn't difficult at all. It's makes me wonder exactly who the individuals are or better yet the supervisor that allows the posts to be displayed. Don't people proof read anymore? Spell check only goes so far. Little mistakes like this have caused the Chargers to lose repeatedly in the playoffs.
I have a plan, and in that plan we start with simplicity. For instance, we start by proof reading, peer editing... (remember college) baby steps and as we get more advanced and more familiar on the importance of doing little things right the first time then maybe, yes maybe, can you be given the reigns to post with the overseeing of say an EDITOR... But let us not get too far ahead of ourselves, remember baby steps.
Common people, be encouraging and quit being like Ole Norv; Lackadaisical.

You guys above are right. I shouldn't have said backup. The thought that went through my head is that guys who used to not have a leadership role with the media are now stepping up. I really meant to say former backup, to show the team's growth. I know Burnett has started this season, but this is his first season as a full-time starter and he's been in the league 6 years. Normally when they're interviewing linebackers in the past, it would be Merriman or Cooper who we heard from. Now, we're getting solid quotes from Burnett. It shows the growth and change in the team. The reason I chose to highlight Burnett with a quote is because he has been performing so well.
Keep the comments coming, as it keeps us writers on our toes. We want to provide high-quality, accurate content for all the Chargers community.

Power Rangers was HUGE when I was a kid. Children in playgrounds everywhere were arguing over who would be the Green Ranger and who was the Red Ranger. However The Rangers running around in spandex and fighting monsters in a robot vs godzilla kind of fashion was a tad camp, though. But not any more.
That's right. The Power Rangers have had a mighty morphing makeover.
Adi Shankar, the producer of Dredd and The Grey, has joined forces with Joseph Khan, who has made loads of big music videos, as well as directing Torque and Detention, and they have made their own completely unofficial interpretation of the 90's action series.
The bootleg remake stars James Van Der Beek, or Dawson of Dawson's Creek fame if you can remember it, who also helped to write the script.
It is fast, dark, sweary, and brutal. The total opposite of how I remember it.
Joseph Khan said:
All of Hollywood, they all keep toying around with this 'dark and gritty' concept, and they're all PG-13. I mean, look at the gunshots. You have a guy going in there shooting a bunch of people and it's just like puffs of smoke. There's no repercussions to these gunshots, which to me is even more dangerous than when you actually show some blood. You're teaching kids that you can shoot a gun and there's no repercussions to it. It just looks like you fall down.
So when I did the dark and gritty version of this, I mean, we go full out. There's blood, there's brains, there's gunshots, there's sex, there's violence. I mean, basically we made the version that Hollywood could never ever make. If I had to watch the 'dark and gritty' reboot, then this is the way I would want it. This is the version I would personally want to see, but I also know this is the version that could never, ever be made in Hollywood. They would be crazy, it would be financially irresponsible, but this is what I personally would like to see out of a Power Rangers film.
Check it out…
An official Power Rangers movie is also being made at the minute. It will probably be shit. Especially compared to this version.

Police: Man committed lewd acts on child during burglary
KISSIMMEE, Fla. - Kissimmee police said a man broke in to a house and tried to fondle a girl on Sunday.
The attack happened early in the morning, in the Orange Gardens subdivision.
Police said the man walked into a bedroom and committed lewd acts on a young girl.
Investigators said they had hoped that they might be able to identify the
man without going to the public. But now they are asking for the public's help in identifying the man.
"I've never seen this guy
before, not around here, or any place," said neighbor John Pryor, when shown a composite sketch of the man.
Pryor said he hopes someone else in the neighborhood does recognize the
"When someone can walk in your home at
2 o'clock in the morning and assaults children, or anybody as far as that goes, the community needs to get together and see what can be done to protect themselves and their families," said Pryor.
"Was he looking for something in the house, or did he just target this child?" WFTV reporter Melonie Holt asked Stacie Miller of the Kissimmee Police Department.
"We don't know at this point, but it appears that nothing is missing from the home," said Miller.
And while the victims continue to take an inventory, police are circulating the
man's sketch.
The burglar is described as a white or Hispanic man, between the ages of 18 and 22. He is 5'7" to 5'9" tall, and is thin with wavy brown hair.
He was wearing a blue Polo shirt, dark blue jeans and brown work boots.
Anyone with information is urged to contact the Kissimmee Police Department's Major Crimes Unit at 407-846-3333, by email at firstname.lastname@example.com or Crimeline at 1-800-423-TIPS (8744).
Calls made to Crimeline remain anonymous, and tips that lead to the felony arrest of suspects and/or the recovery of stolen property and drugs are eligible for cash rewards of up to $1,000.

Originally posted on Red's Army | Last updated 4/17/13
In a recent sit down interview with Greg Dickerson, Kevin Garnett discussed "the chant" from Game 6. Part of what he said is in the headline. Here's more: "It's like someone told me at the gas station, 'I'm a Celtic too. This is my team, I was raised with this team,' that's pretty much what it is. People feel like they are Celtics. When you hurt, they hurt. When you scream, you're screaming for them. When you're applauding, and rooting, and going, they feel like they are empowering you. I get it, I get it… it took me a minute, but I get it." After recent events, this comment made weeks ago is even more poignant. The regular season ends tonight. The Celtics will play 81 games instead of 82… the first time that will have ever happened in the NBA. Then the focus turns to the New York Knicks. And it's a New York Knicks team dealing with the devastating, sudden retirement of one of its players. April 17, 2013 – EVP, Basketball Operations & GM Glen Grunwald

Affymax Achieves $50M Milestone in Anemia Deal with Takeda
Affymax has received a $50 million milestone payment from Takeda Pharmaceutical linked to FDA approval of Omontys Injection for the treatment of anemia due to chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adult patients on dialysis. The drug was given the go-ahead on March 27.
In 2006, Affymax and Takeda entered into an exclusive global agreement to collaborate on the development and commercialization of Omontys. Both companies are working together to co-commercialize the medication in the U.S., while Takeda holds an exclusive license to develop and commercialize the product outside the U.S.
Takeda's MAA was accepted for review by the EMA in February. That triggered a $5 million milestone fee to Affymax. In Japan the companies said they are looking for a partner after Takeda announced last December that it would not engage in commercialization activities in that country. Phase II and III trials in Japan reportedly suggest that Omontys "can become a promising treatment option for Japanese renal anemia patients," Takeda said in December 2011.
Omontys marks Affymax' first approved drug. It was discovered by Affymax and is a synthetic pegylated peptidic compound that binds to and stimulates the erythropoietin receptor and thus acts as an erythropoietin stimulatin agent.
Affymax and Takeda are also evaluating the drug as a treatment for anemia in dialysis and nondialysis patients with pure red cell aplasia (PRCA). A Phase II study in this indication is ongoing outside the U.S. PRCA occurs when the body produces neutralizing antibodies to the recombinant human erythropoietin, thus seriously reducing the production of red blood cells by the bone marrow.

Isis Bungalows are located in a prime position on Panglao Beach. In a more developed global location, the position could scarcely be bought, such is its specialness. As it is, other accommodation establishments stretch either side of Isis with greatly varied attraction and service. The area has all the typical Filipino mix of loveliness and ordinariness. Be that as it may, once inside the grounds of Isis, travellers can relax in a beautifully maintained garden area with immediate access to a wonderful powder beach and a vista of local boats in a scintillating sea with a reef and distant islands beyond. If that view ever begins to pall, retreat can be made to the small but perfectly clean and practical bungalows or the charming little restaurant where good Thai food is served either in a sheltered area or outside under the palms. The price is reasonable, the young people serving are polite and happy and every client who stays here should leave with a lighter heart and happier disposition.

Things move pretty fast in the world of tech, and there was no clearer example than last week. Let me take you on a spin round it from my point of view - My Week In Tech, if you will.
Well, the week started with getting up at the absurdly early time of 4:25am on a Monday morning, so that I could be at Heathrow for at 8:05 flight -so I could get to Germany for a Panasonic ToughBook press trip which, in typical German efficiency mode had to start at exactly 12:00pm - hence the 4:25 start. Why a tour of the Toyota factory you might ask? Well Panasonic sponsors the Toyota Formula One team, hence Panasonic Toyota Racing, so that's why. Of course, the other reason I wasn't in the best of moods was that I was hoping I'd be going to a Formula One factory as a proud Brit, with Lewis Hamilton the world champion. Unfortunately, as we know, it didn't turn out that way, which really capped a great week for British sport - with losses in football, rugby and then Formula One.
The factory was pretty fascinating - though unfortunately I can't show you as we weren't allowed to take any pictures. There was even a little booth where everyone had to leave their cameras and phones.
The coolest part was probably the wind tunnels, used for testing aerodynamics. These were massive and looked like something out of Star Trek, even though the car they put in them was only 50 per cent of the full size car. Apparently, the cost of these wind tunnels is huge, even for a company like Toyota, which I understand has spent more than any other F1 team - the rumours say around 500 million - but it literally can't buy a win.
Coming out of the factory I got a text to call Riyad, ASAP. Naturally, I'm thinking, "oops, what have I done," but in fact it was to be told that TrustedReviews.com had been sold - to media publishing giant IPC, which is pretty big news - feel free to express your thoughts. Now, while this is clearly great news for the company, I had to wonder why they had chosen to wait until I was out of the county to sign on the dotted line...
After nearly falling asleep in the final factory lecture - a real death by PowerPoint affair, we were whisked off to Go-Karting, and after a close run battle my team came .... second.
I know how Lewis Hamilton felt - kind of.


text: About a month ago, I started a thread asking everyone's opinion on whether we should buy a 5th wheel or a Class A and you were all very helpful. So now I have another question for you. As of right now, it looks like we will probably buy a gas-powered Class A...even though my husband still needs a new truck! He loves his little pickup truck and really doesn't want a new one. So, we looked at a used Fleetwood Pace Arrow (2005) and liked it a lot, but were concerned because since it is privately owned there isn't a warranty on it. Today I found a 2008 Gulfstream Independence for about $10k more. It will be brand new, we will be purchasing it from a dealer, and it will have a warranty. I'm not sure if that makes it worth $10k more, so I would like to read some reviews on both motorhomes. Unfortunately I can't seem to find a site for reviews. Do any of you know of a good website where I can research these motorhomes? Thanks so much for all your help!

|P John Gaub: Claimed off waivers by Texas
by Jason Cole of FutureRangers.com, May 24, 2012 at 2:05 pm ET
John Gaub Profile
The Texas Rangers have claimed left-handed reliever John Gaub off waivers from the Tampa Bay Rays, according to Roger Mooney of the Tampa Tribune.
Gaub, 27, will go on the Rangers' 40-man roster and will likely be assigned to Triple-A Round Rock. He is on his final minor league option during the 2012 season.
The 6-foot-2, 210-pound southpaw as made 16 relief appearances for Triple-A Durham this season, yielding eight runs in 16.2 innings. He has allowed 10 hits while walking 12 and striking out 21.
Gaub pitched last season at Triple-A Iowa (Cubs), where he posted a 3.42 ERA in 50 appearances. Over 55.1 innings, he yielded 42 hits, walked 40, and struck out 75. He also made his only big league stint with Chicago in 2011, yielding two runs in 2.2 frames.
One scout described Gaub as a lefty reliever with "big stuff but scattered strikes." While Gaub features a definite plus fastball and a good slider, walks have been an issue through his career.

ESPN commentator Jon Champion is in hot water for labelling Luis Suarez a
Liverpool fans were angry that Champion had accused Suarez after the Uruguayan
used his right hand in the build-up to the Reds' second goal in their 2-1 FA
Cup third-round win at Mansfield yesterday.
Anfield legend Robbie Fowler tweeted: "Commentators out of order…. It
hit his hand but he couldn't get it out of way.. Both calling him a cheat,
As ESPN showed a replay of a clear case of handball from Suarez, Champion
said: "That, I'm afraid, is the work of a cheat."
Champion later received a dressing down by the broadcaster for his comments.
An ESPN statement read: "We take our responsibility to deliver the highest
standards of coverage to our viewers.
"ESPN's editorial policy is for commentators to be unbiased and honest, to
call things as they see them.
"Inevitably this can involve treading a fine line on occasion, especially in
the heat of the moment.
"Comments during the Mansfield v Liverpool match caused offence where none was
intended and we have spoken to our commentator about this incident."
