In this guest post Dr. Mark Santow discusses American Exceptionalism in the context of a recently released report from the Institute of Medicine. This report shows the relative poor health status of Americans in relation to their international peers. Dr. Santow is an Associate Professor and Chair of the History Department at the University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth and blogs at Chants Democratic.
Back in October 2012, New York Times writer Scott Shane described the idea of 'American exceptionalism' as an "opiate," inducing a kind of hubristic national stupor that prevents us from seeing things as they truly are.
The idea that God or history has uniquely blessed the United States, justifying a proselytizing posture toward the rest of the world, is an old one. It returned to our national discourse in the last couple of years, when conservatives accused President Obama of backsliding in his belief that Americans are the 'chosen people.'
As Shane argued, the idea that American identity is a kind of calling can have positive consequences: "this national characteristic…may inspire some people and politicians to perform heroically, rising to the level of our self-image." But it can also be deeply dysfunctional, as politicians of all stripes trip over one another to reassure Americans "that their country, their achievements and their values are extraordinary," while profound problems are left unaddressed.
American patriotism has always — and uniquely — had this 'Stuart Smalley' taint to it, but as we collectively whistle through the graveyard of apparent national decline, it seems to have over-ripened a bit. If John Winthrop's idea of America as the 'city on a hill' drawing the "eyes of all people" was to be more than just an expression of jingoism, it demanded (and demands) a delicate balance between description and aspiration. When it morphs into mere self-affirmation, however, we Americans become a danger to ourselves — and to others, who increasingly keep their eyes on us for fear of what might happen if they don't.
Sadly, as a recent international health study bracingly reminds us, most of the ways in which the United States is exceptional today are negative.
The Institute of Medicine just released a study comparing American health care outcomes to other industrialized countries. And all rhetoric about the U.S. having the 'best health care system in the world' aside, the realities are shocking. Despite spending far more per capita on health care than any other nation, the data make it abundantly clear that the American way of life has become nasty, increasingly brutish, and comparatively short.
The optimistic takeaway here is that almost everything described below is attributable to (and capable of being ameliorated by) public policy — in health, but in much broader areas as well. In other words, if we can once again rediscover our aspirational identity as Americans, change is possible.
Physician Steven Woolf, a professor at Virginia Commonwealth University, chaired the panel that wrote the report. He and his co-authors were "stunned by the findings." Americans "have a long-standing pattern of poorer health that is strikingly consistent and pervasive" over a person's lifetime, the study found.
The U.S. is at or near the bottom in virtually every health outcome: life expectancy, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and homicide. We have much higher rates of death before the age of 50, accounting for most of the gap between the United States and our peer nations.
According to the report, most of these poor health outcomes are attributable to poor childhood health.
The USA has had the highest infant mortality rate of any developed country for several decades, due partly to a high rate of premature birth and low birth weight. Dr. Woolf and his colleagues also note that the U.S. has by far the highest rate of child poverty, though they don't really touch on its role as a possible cause.
Here is a graphic representation of the infant mortality gap:
This gap, interestingly, has a history.
The gap between the United States and its peer nations was relatively wide in 1950s and early 1960s, and then rapidly closed. Why did it close, and so quickly? Policy — the 'War on Poverty,' including Medicare/Medicaid, among other programs, which for the first time began to connect millions of Americans to the health care system (and to food) on a relatively consistent basis.
And then, right around 1980, the gap re-emerged. This coincided, not surprisingly, with Reagan-era cuts in public health and social programs; but it also coincided with an ongoing increase in economic inequality and insecurity. Since 2000, the gap between the U.S. and its peers has expanded. While infant mortality rates among African-American and Hispanics are high, this doesn't explain the gap — white Americans have higher comparable rates as well.
In short, while we have continued to make progress over the past two decades, our peers have had much greater success: "although U.S. infant mortality declined by 20 percent between 1990 and 2010," the report notes, "other high-income countries experienced much steeper declines and halved their infant mortality rates over those two decades."
The report doesn't really offer any explanations for the infant mortality gap, or for the poor health performance of the U.S. more generally, beyond behavioral factors like drug abuse, calorie consumption, not wearing seat belts, and the ubiquity of handgun violence.
I'm not a health expert, but I do think we need to consider one factor: inequality.
While economic inequality within nations wasn't the focus of the Institute of Health report, we know from research by epidemiologists Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett that it strongly correlates with (and is reproduced by) health outcomes — such as infant mortality (see above).
This is true in two senses.
First, nations with higher rates of economic inequality tend to have poorer health outcomes across the class structure — in other words, while health outcomes are better the richer or more educated one is, they will still be lower than those of comparably placed people in more equal countries. The Institute of Health report confirms this.
Second, economic (and educational) inequality and health outcomes are strongly correlated within societies. In the U.S., life expectancy for white women without a high school diploma is 73.5 years, compared with 83.9 years for white women with a college degree or more. For white men, the gap is even larger: 67.5 years for the least educated white men compared with 80.4 for those with a college degree or better.
Because the United States is drastically more unequal than any other comparable nation, the socio-economic gradient is much sharper here — and its getting worse. Indeed, we now have evidence that the life span of the least educated white Americans has actually contracted, falling a full four years since 1990. The numbers are worse for women. Some of this is attributable to changes in the labor market: the share of working-age adults with less than a high school diploma who did not have health insurance rose to 43 percent in 2006, up from 35 percent in 1993. While full implementation of the Affordable Care Act in the coming years may help somewhat, the deeper problems of rising inequality and economic insecurity — and the debilitating stress and anxiety that accompany them — remain.
In other words, our unequal and insecure American way of life is making us sick.
While the mechanisms that connect inequality with poor health outcomes are many and hard to disentangle, it seems clear that stress and insecurity are critical. Both affect the cardiovascular and immune systems, and both are found in abundance and in greater numbers in unequal societies — and their effects are devastating on the young in particular.
Thomas McInerny, president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, reacted to the Institute of Health study by pointing to recent research on the long-term impact of "toxic stress" on the health and cognitive development of babies and toddlers. "It's becoming increasingly clear that the first 1,000 days of life are critically important for children's development, and can determine the course of their life span from then on," McInerny says. "Investing in children in the first three years of life provides higher returns, for improving their productivity as adults, compared to intervening later."
Back in 2007, UNICEF put together an index of child well-being. It measured material and educational factors, health and safety, peer and family relationships, surveys of subjective well-being, and behavioral risks. When Wilkinson and Pickett lined this index up with rates of income inequality, they found something striking: the more unequal a society is, the worse its rates of child well-being — not just among poor children, but overall:
These correlations and comparisons make one thing clear: America's poor health outcomes, particularly for our children, can be ameliorated. Why? Because the differences between the U.S. and its peers, ultimately, are policy differences — and thus are amenable to collective action. We can make America healthier (and more productive) by making it less unequal, and by investing in pre-natal care, early childhood health, and high quality and universal pre-school. "We already know what to do," Dr. Woolf says. "It's more a matter of having the resolve and resources to actually do it."
Notwithstanding the false scarcity of our current austerity politics, we have the resources.
Notwithstanding the libertarian and narcissistic braying of the privileged, our well-being is ultimately inseparable from that of our fellow Americans.
Whether we have the resolve to see this will ultimately determine whether the term 'American exceptionalism' serves to damn or praise our national experiment.

Well Volkswagen's Motorsports division treated us to just such a thing this morning, posting video of the endurance racer which shares the same turbocharged 2.5-liter heart as Audi's TT RS. If you want to see, and more importantly, hear the car on the move (trust us, you do) check out the video below.

A judge has granted the families of the bereaved permission for a judicial review of the decision by the transport secretary, Alistair Darling, which was a blow to their four-year campaign for answers.
They believe a public inquiry is necessary to get to the truth of the safety and maintenance failings that led to the crash four years ago. A railway standards safety board report found "systemic" failings in track maintenance.
The tragedy happened when a high-speed train was derailed in May 2002 as it ran over faulty points outside the Hertfordshire station. The crash, involving a West Anglia Great Northern train, left 70 people injured.
As it stands, the families' only chance of answers is an inquest, which will be presided over by a high court judge, Mr Justice Sullivan. Granting permission for a judicial review, Mr Justice Collins said the inquest would have fewer powers to gain documents and less scope than a public inquiry.
The maintenance company responsible for the track, Jarvis, and Network Rail admitted liability for the disaster.
The novelist Nina Bawden, who lost her husband in the crash and was herself seriously injured, said: "If there is no public inquiry it will just be forgotten ... those people should be shamed and punished."
The Crown Prosecution Service has declined to prosecute over the crash.

Nikon prices...no logic !
gwenhael appere wrote:
Hi everybody,
I live in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. A city of 1.7m people, 90% of them foreigners. Also a city of 20 million visitors a year. The hub of the Middle East, and the biggest touristic city around. And guess what ? Residents and tourists buy, and compare prices....And in this multicultural hub, which could be a huge market for Nikon, their price policy doesn't make sense !
D800 : 15999 AED (4350 USD - 3200 euros)
D700 : 9999 AED (2720 USD - 2000 euros)
D600 : 8999 AED (2450 USD - 1800 euros)
A few comments :
I really dont understand the price of the D800 here, and the huge gap with the next camera
I really dont understand that the D700 (still on sale !) is more expensive than the D600
the D600 is the only one, in my view, which is priced logically compared to the international prices. The D800 price is just plain stupid.
The marketing efforts are next to zero, and I see Canon selling cameras (especially the DX models) through all the distribution channels, and Nikon seems very conservative in what could be a huge market for them...I hope the good price point of the D600 is the beginning of a wake-up, and they'll adjust their pricing policy...but i've been living here for ten years, and i'm still waiting !!
The problem there is not Nikon, but rather the local distributor that controls the price. The grey market in Bur Dubai is really very attractive. Canon sells cheaper thee but only the low end bodies and they are still selling 1000D!

building frame
Well, it's finally in the shop to get a new frame and running gear. Striped the cobra today for the new power plant, running gear and front end. When the 393Clevor is done that will be going in so I have to make the room for it now so I wont run into problems later.
I'm building a frame for it so what size tubing should I go with?
Any good sites out there about where to start?
Any help would be welcome?
thanks Steve..........
[ January 01, 2003: Message edited by: 393Clevor ]</p>
i usually use 2"-3" 11guage tubing for these type projects, sometimes 2"-4" but your car looks fairly light weight. Both are common sizes and available (usually in stock) at supply houses. the .120 wall adds some extra weight but is more of a safety factor for street cars. what front suspension? round or square crossmembers?
after looking more closely at your pictures i see you have a pinto-mustang ll type front suspension, i have found that if you get an aftermkt crossmember it is much easier to set up that system, as fords idea of welding layer on layer of sheetmetal to gain strength really sucks when trying to adapt the crossmember to anything. this is a unit body? Hillman or Volvo type? the last one of these bodys i did i made a subframe that slid into the orig frame just inside the rear spring perches,after removing the orig front part of the frame, tied it together with the rest of the body at locations on the rocker panels and lower firewall, then ran a strut from the upper firewall forward to the frontal frame area where it held the radiator support sheetmetal and a strut type front end,the unit body makes a very stiff sound structure and all the new frame is actually doing is holding the front suspension drivetrain and front sheetmetal. take lots of measurements, get a mech drawing,cad-cam type program for your computer and you can get exact pieces fabricated. good luck

I am in the middle of replacing some PCV parts on my wifes 02 Passat AWM. I was cleaning the various hoses behind the intake manifold along with my suction jet pump. It looks to be in good shape. Air only goes through one way (see first picture) like it is supposed to, but I'm not sure what is supposed to be happening with the smaller line coming out of the bottom (first picture again). When vacuum is applied to the pump, and the air flows through the pump, following the direction of the arrows, is air supposed to go in or out of the bottom line? Mine does neither. I'm assuming it is supposed to be sucking in as the line that connects there comes from the breather valve.
The red arrows indicate the direction of airflow. Can anyone tell me which way air is supposed to go from the bottome line? (The green or blue arrow)
Here is a cutaway view of the pump. The area circled in yellow seems to be clogged up on mine. Either way, no air moves through here. Again, the red arrows indicate the direction of airflow
Does anyone have one of these pumps handy that they would be willing to suck on to see that happens? I'm sure everyone on here would appreciate it.

Target: Paul Biya, President of Cameroon and Members of the National Assembly of Cameroon
Goal: Put a halt on plans to convert Cameroonian rainforest into a palm-oil plantation
Giant investment firm, New York-based Herakles, has made a bold move in obtaining a 60,000 hectare plot of rainforest in Cameroon with the intention of using the land to start a palm-oil plantation. With hopes to tap into the multi-billion-dollar-a-year industry, Herakles' states their plans run in complete accordance with the area's environmental regulations.
Not everyone is convinced, however.
An anonymous source close to the issue explains, "Animals will be wiped out and the current conservation infrastructure is ill-equipped to do anything about it." As it turns out, this particular area of the Cameroonian landscape lies in the midst of what is considered a High Conservation Value Forest (or HCVF).
Additionally the Herakles Farm will be adjusted between four protected areas of forest (including the Rumpi Hills Forest Reserve, Korup National Park, Banyang Mbo Wildlife Sanctuary, and Bakossi National Park). The Korup National Forest alone houses in excess of 600 species of trees, 200 species of reptiles and amphibians, 400 different types of birds, 1,000 varieties of butterflies, 160 different mammals (including a rare species of elephant, leopards, and bushpigs), and the most diverse communities of primates in the world.
There are also fears that the presence of this plantation will disrupt the lives of those people living among and off of the land.
While Herakles views their business as providing "rapid path to job growth in sub-Saharan Africa," others are unsure of the company's sincerity and view it as a threat to the Cameroonian's way of life. "Workers will migrate into the area seeking jobs and they will demand bushmeat," explains the SAVE-Wildlife Conservation Fund in a statement. "Hunters will have even more incentive to violate Cameroon laws and harvest animals from inside the protected areas, where animal populations are still relatively abundant."
In order to complete the project, Herakles is looking to get investors involved to raise the $300 million in funding—investors who may be turned off by the idea of getting involved.
Dear Paul Biya and Members of the National Assembly of Cameroon,
The rainforests of Cameroon are some of the most naturally diverse regions in the world–and some of the most vulnerable. With deforestation a common danger, it becomes increasingly important to protect these areas of forests.
Herakles Farms puts these valuable areas directly in the line of danger, with their pending project that would turn these areas of biodiversity into a wide spreading palm-oil plantation.
It is become increasingly clear that the only motivation of Herakles Farms is that of monetary gain, and is only masked behind seemingly good intentions.
It is for reason like this that I ask you to reconsider the deal made with this corporation and consider what is best for the country of Cameroon and the world as a whole. Taking a stand now will prove easier than trying to pick up the pieces in the future.
[Your name will go here]

The right fit will make an impression.
Your shirt is the first thing people notice, and the last thing you want to get wrong when it comes to fit. That's why ours are cut and stitched to look great on a range of builds and body types. This is how we do it:
A closer fit through the chest
Our shirts are snug but not constricting, for a fit that's sleek and comfortable.
Accommodating in the shoulders
At the end of the day, a shirt should be functional. We make sure ours offer room to move.
A slight taper in the waist
Our shirts are never blousy. We've cut out the extra fabric for a leaner, more natural fit.
A slimmer cut in the sleeves
The last thing you want are "wizard sleeves." Ours are trim, crisp, and professional.
A Shirt For Every Guy
Guys come in different shapes and sizes, and so do our shirts. We have options in Standard, Slim, and Slim Tailored. You'll find your perfect fit right here.
We designed this fit for more average builds. It's not boxy like most shirts out there, but it's not too slim, either, with only a taper through the waist.
We narrowed the chest and added a slight taper through the waist for those who have a more slender build, or prefer a snugger fit.
The trimmest fit we offer, this is perfect for those looking for a more tailored and tapered look.
Three Collar Options
Classic, conservative and wholly American.
A polished, confident balance. The go-to collar for most guys.
Continental by design. A higher collar. A bit more edge.

* At this time, we only offer the sleeve options listed under each neck size. For example, we do not have a 15.5" neck and 32" sleeve.
Should I change sizes when ordering slim or standard? What about tailored slim?
We recommend keeping the same size when switching between Slim and Standard. The difference between the two is a personal preference on fit. Slim Fit has a more tailored look, where Standard Fit has slightly more room. All of our fits are much less boxy than most retailers.Slim Fit is 1" narrower in the chest and 2" slimmer through the waist than Standard Fit. Tailored Slim is 1" narrower in the chest and 2.5" slimmer through the waist than Slim Fit.

Frame swap
What is the newest model frame that I can use to replace the one on my 1958 Chevy 1/2 ton stepside? I want all the bells and whistles like power and air. What alterations will I have to make?
The best frame for a 1958 Chevrolet 1/2 ton is the frame that came under it.
If is far easier to add good suspension and the options you desire than to change frames and try to have everything fit and function as they should.
Sorry to be the bearer of sad news but that's the TRUTH.....
I guess I'll run against the grain, I'd measure the wheelbase and if one's close make some new body mounts and mount it up. I think it's as easy to do that as all the suspension swapping and other mods, then you have a one source parts search if anything should fail,instead of a list of what came off what.
well, i was gonna say 1959
I'd have to agree with Woodz on that. A pick-up is pretty straight forward. As long as the wheel base is the same, mounting should be the main problem. I wouldn't consider that major, compared to what you would have to go thru going the other way.
duceroadster and tomsilk. I already knew that but I was trying to think outside the box.
woods428 and adtkart. That is exactly why I asked the question. I wanted to skip a few steps and end up with something I could buy replacement parts for and save some work and money.
hey, YOU'RE the one who asked what would fit.
ya DIDN'T ask what would fit with work....
ya want power?
power what?
none of the above have anything to do with a frame swap.....
how low or high do ya want it?
myself, i have a 58 that i'm gonna clip (assuming somebody else doesn't want it worse than i do) with a 76 seville subframe.
about the only thing that'll give me over stock is pwr steering and IFS.
just for the record,if ya whack off the frt part of a full frame caprice, they fit pretty well also.
use a wagon and get bigger brakes (and a 5"wheel pattern)
also. i can't think of 1 full-size PU that is narrow enough to use and not look goofy.
i guess what i'm saying is, tell us what you have in mind and maybe you'll get some help you can use..
tomslik, I am new at this forum stuff so bear with me. This conversion may not be major but I have limited knowledge and experience so I am looking for some help. I want power disc brakes, IFS and I was hopeing to find a late model with air cond., and v/8 engine. I envisioned finding something where I could use all the components from the donor and use only the body from the 58 truck. I would like to lower it, yes, enough to be practical as a driver. I do not want a show car, just a driver that rides smooth, is dependable, stock V/8 for the sound and dependability. This is oversimplifying the project but maybe this gives you a better idea of what I want to achieve.I want sort of a new old car with the minimum labor and get most of my parts from 1 donor vehicle. Thanks for all the help.
i'll be glad to help if i can.
are you going to use this as a truck?
or just maybe some light hauling?
it'll make a difference....
as far as the a/c goes,don't mess with anything other than an R-134 system.
it ain't worth the effort.
[ April 27, 2003: Message edited by: tomslik ]

tomslick,re:58 Chevy
I may do some light hauling but the truck will be a toy. I have other vehicles to haul stuff and do serious travel. The truck will not have a particular purpose except to cruise around southern Illinois. I am not witholding information, just having a problem putting my vision into words for you. I thought that of all the people who tune into "Hotrodders"; someone must have acquired the measurements on a late model vehicle that might be real close to the correct dimensions for my truck. I agree on the air conditioning comment. That is a luxury I would like but good late model suspension, engine, transmission are more important to me.
well, as i said before, i can't think of a late model truck narrow enough(track width) besides a S-10 and then THEY might be a little TOO narrow.
as long as we've been talking about this, i coulda had mine subframed by now
ya know, now that i think about it, i wonder if a 2wd trailblazer would work......
haven't ever seen a 2wd but i suppose they make 'em..
If you're not going to do any heavy hauling your best bet would be a Mustang II IFS (with strut rods) and big GM 11" disks. You can easily add replacement rear springs and shocks, and a bolt in crossmember with SBC mounts (you may not need this since I believe the '58 models came with small blocks as well as the 6). You could also add a bolt in transmission mount.
Results = good ride, power disk brakes, rack & pinion power steering, bolt in small block Chevy and TH-350/400 auto. No hassles trying to mount your cab on a strange frame and no fabrication required to hang the front end sheet metal.
Hack it up if you want to but this is by far the easiest way to go.

[ April 28, 2003: Message edited by: Centerline ]

I've done both and still would go with the frame swap if the measurements work out. Use the whole power train and if it was an A/c'd truck then all you need to do is install the cab a/c stuff. The amount of work overall is going to be far less, and once again it would be all one source parts. I'm making mounts for an early Chevy truck on an S/10 frame now for a guy who's doing the swap, he did all the measurements and gave me the drawings for the body mounts on the frame and will do most himself. He's not a car builder, just a car guy, actually he's the concrete guy that poured my new shop floor.
centerline-- thanks for the idea.
woodz428-- this is exactly what I had in mind. Where can I get the complete information?
tomslik--You are correct, I am taking up the whole bulletin board with my problem. My line of thinking was; a little typing was easier than blindly going ahead with something I know very little about. Thanks for all the help from everyone.
hey trader, don't think that this won't help somebody else with their project.
ain't that the idea?
keep us posted!

Thank you for your interest in a rescued dog. Our descriptions contain all that we know about this dog today. We'll update as more information is known.
We urge all of our potential adopters not to fall in love with a picture. While we like to know what you like in looks, a dog is more than a pretty face. Our goal is to match you with the best possible pet for you and your home. We want to create furever families.
Are you looking to adopt within the next 30 days? If so please visit our webpage at www.carolinapoodlerescue.org and complete the application. You'll find it in the menu on the left hand side. You'll also find a total listing of all our dogs available.
Just browsing but interested in poodles and poodle mixes? Please drop a note to email@example.com with your name, address and phone # and email. We'll add you to our mailing list.
the CPR Adoption team
Date into Rescue: 11/2/2016
Reason for being in rescue: Puppy mill/ Owner surrender to York County.
Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC
Special Needs? Cataracts. Missing part of lower jaw.
Weight: 5lbs
Height: Estimated 5 inches from the shoulder.
Adoption Fee: $149
Fence needed? No
What kind of home would be best for me? Winslow needs a relaxed home where he can be lazy and sleep his days away.
What is my personality like? Winslow acts like your typical friendly, old man. He doesn't care about much of anything unless it is food! Winslow is very meek and gentle, he wouldn't hurt a fly and just minds his own business. I don't believe Winslow knows what it is like to be a lap dog or give affection just yet.. considering his puppy mill past, but I think he could learn to. He needs work on a leash, so far he lags behind and doesn't even know what a leash is. Winslow is low- maintenance when it comes to attention and would be the perfect dog for someone that can't stay home at all times.
How I act when I first meet new people: Cautious but friendly.
House trained? Dogs can be house trained if they are in the right environment and are allowed to follow a schedule as long as a physical reason doesn't keep them from being trained. A dog house trained in my home may not be in yours. We will help you teach your new dog this necessary skill and based on your schedule.
My age: Estimated 12 years old.
Please note - we do not ship dogs. If you are interested in adopting, please take a look at the distance between the foster home location and your location and make sure you are willing to make that trip.
To apply, please visit our webpage at www.carolinapoodlerescue.org and visit the tab on the left that directions you to the online application.
Please note that when screening applications, we look at the entire home and then make suggestions based on what would be a good fit for your home. You are not being screened for a specific dog although we are looking to see what type of dog interests you - poodles or non poodles, color, age, etc. Others here may be a better fit for you. It is very difficult to get to know a living animal from a picture and a short description. Since we are constantly getting in new dogs, this may be a dog not in our listings yet. We want you to be very happy with your new companion and will make suggestions based on what you tell us about you.
You can also read our adoption tips page for hints and helps on adopting a rescued dog. http://www.carolinapoodlerescue.org/AdoptionTips.shtml or for general information on Carolina Poodle Rescue, please visit our FAQs - http://www.carolinapoodlerescue.org/FAQGeneral.shtml
All animals adopted from Carolina Poodle are spayed or neutered before being placed. We provide sanctuary and rehabilitation and, when the right home comes along, rehome poodles and other needy small dogs. We maintain a waiting list of homes and most of our animals are placed from this list.
Our efforts are funded solely through adoption fees and donations.
Our Mission
To rescue, rehabilitate, offer permanent sanctuary and, when appropriate, rehome needy poodles and small dogs.
To encourage the human-animal bond by promoting activities that serve to bring animals and their people closer together
To support the efforts of those in the animal rescue community seeking to end euthanasia as a means of population control.

World wide cuisines
It is situated right on the main street and is very easy to find. It has ample parking space too. They serve world wide cuisine .Best place for chicken lovers.-Taquila chicken stripes were just awesome and Chicken patiala was amazing. The paneer tikka masala was also great with respect to the consistency and the quantity. The sundae was also delicious. The only problem is the lack of light in the outdoor seating.

Perfect place
This is one of the best restaurants in pune. Very spacious and good seating areas, huts and special couple tables are beautifully placed around the water. Specially the hut area and it's low light effects are beautiful. Different sections for family and group dine, ambiance is quite romantic and if you lucky enough to get a table next to the fountain , your day is made. I found the drink rates pretty high. Also the food too is a bit heavier on the pocket so one point goes down for the same.

All rounder place
The place was on my wishlist for a year. Even with this ample seating area, the place is full house on weekends. The ambiance makes this place stand out. The dim lights, cozy seating and light music really help calm things out.The menu is an all rounder. You get everything from Chicken tikkas to Shitake mushrooms to burritos.. The food is upto the mark and so is the ambiance and service.

Hawaiian Abode at Pune.
Now, this review is for two of my visits. The first one was a huge; family gathering to celebrate my sisters birthday and that includes two 2 and 3 year old kids engaged in turf wars at the premises, both my loving nieces. I will come back to the second one later.
So with prior reservations we arrived first at the venue. Parking was smooth (they have their own well-guarded parking area). As we entered, we noticed a lovely outdoor seating (sheltered) and a nice bakery. Stewards are dressed in really cool Hawaiian shirts. As you venture inside, you also notice that there is a flight of stairs which lead to an upper hall where one can have private celebrations for friends and family. Next to this is an air conditioned seating area. The restaurant is very spacious and they put on some nice soothing music all the time. Further inside is the real surprise, a lovely open area seating. There are candle lit tables for couples and also for those who do not find tables :)! However, this is on the pathway and some may find the thoroughfare a little irksome. Then there are lovely tables for 6 odd people. Chat away to glory. On the periphery, you have these canopy type low seating. Can get a bit nippy in the winters for sure. Take a pick. The restaurant is usually bustling with guests so it would wise to make a prior reservation.
And now my personal favourite, their bar area. Oh, the Hawaiian feeling was so in the air with the resplendent lighting and beautiful decor here, of course with an Indian touch to it :). Ok, no more wisecracks. Only thing missing was the sea! Always wanted to sit on the bar stool and order a nice cocktail and sip away to glory.
Since we were quite a few in no, we settled for the outer sheltered seating area and sat comfortably. Their menu is exhaustive and a delight to go through. And so it began, mega family dinner :), lots of snaps in various configurations, kids on lap, wailing kid on lap, kids being cootchi cooed, me left etc. Of course never intending to be loud / disturbing co-diners. But the chaps were a big sport and it was real fun.
Coming back to the point, we ordered in piri prawns, honey chili corn potato and herb spiced cottage cheese for starters. Way too good. They also had an offer of buy one get one free on the beer. A few beers, cocktails and some merriment later we ordered for the main course which was an assortment with three treasure vegetables Hunan style with rice , enchilada , a classic Mexicana sizzler , baked pasta, Thai green curry/ rice in vegetarian and a carne sizzler, hunter cube chicken sizzler in non-vegetarian. One of the elders in the family wanted his sizzler made as per his requirement and the chef was kind enough to do just that.
I tasted everything because I was one of the youngest and hence was given the usual "Oh, I am sure you can help me out beta"! Of all the good things served on our table (loved each one of them), I really liked the sizzlers, ample in quantity and made very well. Personal favourite: Mexicana..the smell and taste of burnt rice is just too alluring (do not know how to describe it, but this is how it was). Take a pick from anything in the menu, I am sure you will love it.
All in all that was a wonderful evening with family. The kids loved it as well. Lot of open space and greenery to run around and have loads of fun and frolic. We, very heartily tipped generously as well.
The second visit was a quiet evening with wifey. We had sizzlers and loved it to the hilt. A nice candle lit table was a bonus.
Will definitely be looking forward to visiting Copa Cabana again. Cheers.

Tropical Paradise
Was recommended this place by a friend.
Getting to the place was easy as it is located on the main road. Downer... traffic. There is ample of parking. On entering we were greeted by a smiling staff. At first look, the decor stands out. It is tropical with the staff dressed to match that experience. The place is casual.. You can walk in wearing shorts and still feel comfortable.The place is very spacious, well lit, and has great ambiance. The staff was very hospitable and the service was quick. You can try different continental dishes, from sizzlers to a wide range of Thai dishes. Almost every item is worth trying once..Mind it has over 300 dishes. Vegetarians have a sizable choice apart from the routine.
My pick would be Thai curry and rice which makes it an absolute fulfilling gastronomical extravaganza.
This resto is definitely better than others and you feel like visiting this place again. Trust me, your taste buds would compel you. Overall, a delicious experience
Other pros:
Large parking
Varied sitting options
Huge menu
Romantic place
Crowded on weekends
Sum it up... 4 plus out of 5

The Worst and Rude Staff Ever Seen
I had a very bad experience at this Restaurant. This is not due to food or drinks quality/standard. It is mainly due to the rudeness of the CopaCabana. The manager was literally out of his mind and upon asking for a garden seat he shouted at us. When we tried to complain about him he told us to meet him outside so that he can teach us a lesson and this too when our wives were with us (two couples). Upon asking him about his rude behaviour he said I am a Manager here and not a waiter (I guess he thinks that waiters are guys to be looked upon with down eye...WHAT A MANAGER) I would suggest not to go there because you never know when this will happen to you. But ambience is no doubt good but then there are many other good options in Wakad, Pimple Saudagar and HInjewadi.

Coupé in Cabana
Went on Diwali night with family since heard a lot about it. We ordered Mexican bean soup which was very thin and more like an Indian rasaa. Won't order it again.
Greek salad was pretty looking ,crunchy and juicy but missing chunks of feta cheese.
Shashlik sizzlers were just paneer butter masala on rice with huge pieces of cauliflower and potatoes, another disappointment.
Melon blast Mock-tail of which I had few sips was amazing minus the seeds.
In Chicken angara instead of tequila he poured brandy for flames.
The service was inconveniently fast. I had a few sips of soup and to my horror, salad n sizzlers were already there on the table
The ambiance was the wow factor of CopaCabana. The surprising finishing touch were the dark chocolate cubes which where complimentary.

Totally Disappointed!!
I visited Copacabana yesterday and was excited to check the place out for all the reviews seen earlier, however I was really disappointed with the place. The food was a complete turn off.
We ordered for simple fried potatoes with Mexican sauce and cheese, but were utterly disappointed with the french fries with a cheap tomato sauce (which was the Mexican sauce) and some mustard sauce for cheese. Looking at the starter, we decided not to experiment and order standard Indian food. We ordered for Chicken do pyaza and chicken biryani and all we got was some ugly looking yellow chicken do pyaza (i always thought that this dish was red in colour) and the Biryani was the biggest disaster of it all. All we were served was Chicken in gravy with boiled Rice. We couldn't eat the food served to us and had to get out of the place hungry.
I really can't rate this place.

The Best & Biggest Restaurant At Wakad

Worst Experience
This is the WORST PLACE EVER. I recommend never ever going to this place! I went to the restaurant to book a hut for my friends birthday (since i love this place) and called them up to confirm if it booking possible. They asked me to come over and pay the advance. I travelled 20+kms and the manager was so rude and told me that they won't take my booking because we were just 3 people and that its a saturday and he was kinda hinting that they get much more money per table and that is not profitable for them.
I offered them to pay money for 5-6 people or whatever they want ie. if they want me to do a bill of amount X. Still he was arrogant and denied completely.
I really used to like this place and lot and that was the only reason i went all the way to book, i did not expect this from COPA CABANA. I am never ever going there again and with this kind of customer service its not long before they shut down completely! Commercialization is understood but this is outright rudeness!

Hygiene, taste ,ambiance & hospitality at its best
I was there with my girlfriend recently and was very pleased by the ambiance and the hospitality provided by the staff. I ordered Shorba (A non veg stock, not to be confused with soup) and found it average, however the price paid for the Shorba was really high. Then we moved on to the mutton biryani and it was non-spicy but delicious. Perfect blend of spices and essence, it was nothing less then perfect. Then v ordered a desert (I am unable to recall the name, however I am pretty much sure, it was the last dish in the desert section). It was so presentable that v could not wait to have it. It was a mix of ice-cream and fruits. Looked good, tasted great. Over all it was a great experience. If u r a foodiee, u should be there.

Good Goan Food
Copacabana is situated at the border of Wakad and Vishal Nagar. Its the perfect place to unwind after a long days work. The service is very prompt. They have an indoor and outdoor seating area. The outdoor seating area is interesting with a lot of greenery, a pond a bar ( If you alone and just wanna have a Drink and leave). There are also special its definitely a date place, especially if you work at Hinjewadi most convenient.
Oh the food, this is the most surprising part you'd think a place that has such good ambience is trying to compensate on the taste and quality of the food. The food is sooo awesome. If you like goan food you must try out the goan cuisine here.
Its expensive but if you love good food im sure you wouldnt mind.

Went here the other day for lunch and to my surprise it was good food. Generally such good ambience restaurants disappoint me with the food but not in this case. I tried the minestrone soup whivh was so refreshinh and authentic. Prawns tandoori was a delight too but low on quantity. They serve wide range of cuisine so we tried the Goan dish Chicken Vindaloo and it was almost as if I was in Goa. Tasty! High on pricing but good to go once in a while.

SuperCabana... Definitely Stunner
Ambience - 4/5...Dim Lighting, with table and chairs arranged near small pool.
Food - 5/5... Dal Bukhara, best one i ever had in Pune and Paneer Chop Masala was too awesome.
Staff - 4/5 ... Very Courteous, helpful and hospitable. They need to be more prompt in serving the food, as we had to wait for 5-10 mins for the rotis to arrive. Manager, Mr. Jackie (or Jack Sparrow, as he called himself) was very cooperative and friendly.
Definitely i'm gonna go there this weekend and its HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!!!!!

Great cocktails and amazing food
Me and 3 of my friends had gone to Copacabana for dinner to finally and at long last celebrate the New Year:):) And let me tell you, the place was worth waiting for. We bypassed the restaurant and went up to the Lounge "Bongo" on the first floor. The lighting is suitably subdued (but not so dark that you would bump into the furniture!!!) The seating is amazingly comfortable - and I assure u, I am a big enough guy to really understand what good seating means!! There is a TV, set to the sports channel.
We ordered Paneer Tikka, Chicken Reshmi kebab, Nachos with beans and corn & Bruschetta. Surprisingly all the items were wonderfull. The Paneer was so soft that it broke off while we tried to fork it into our hungry jaws!!! The sour cream condiment was perfect. The Chicken Reshmi kebab was cooked to perfection and the spices were exactly correct. The pudina chutney was a whole lot better than I have had in most places and for the first time I actually finished all the chutney before the kebab! The Bruschetta was okay with ample toppings. But the real king of the table was the Nachos. The crisp nachos with well cooked beans and corn, liberally doused with melting cheese was absolutely perfect. We ended up scrapping the bowl clean and wondering if we had space for another - maybe next time!!
My friends played safe with the drinks and ordered Gin and tonic & Vodka and Sprite - boring I know:):) I being the adventurous type went all out and ordered the Long Island Ice Tea. IT WAS OUTSTANDING. I have only had a better drink in New York! The bartender did a commendable job mixing all the different liquors together and topped it off with just the right amount of Coke. I got another one just to make sure the first one wasnt a fluke and the second one was equally good!!
For the main course, after a lot of agonising we ordered a bowl of "Lo Mein" for one of our friends who has a bit of a delicate constitution! We got a steaming bowl of noodles topped with a generous helping of steamed veggies all tossed together in a delicious sauce. The rest of us were not too hungry and so finished off the dinner with a couple of pizzas. The pizzas were quite good with lots of veggies, olives and cheese. The only thing to remember is that the pizzas are thin crust and about 8".
The DJ probably sized up the crowd to be above an average age of 28 or so since he played a lot of Metallica, Cold Play, Linkin Park, Guns N Roses & Pink Floyd. Music that was all the rage when we were in college so it was a lovely nostalgic trip down the memory lane. We spent time reminiscing about audio cassettes and walkmans which were our only connection to Rock and Metal music in the late 90s. The DJ was kind enough to take requests and play some of our favorites - One (Metallica), November Rain (GnR) etc
We wound up at 11.30 and felt that the evening was over all too soon. We had an amazing evening with good food, good drinks and good company. Life cant get better!! And as for Copacabana, in the words of The Terminator - "I'll be back"

We went there for want of options on a saturday night since most well known places were booked. Did not regret a bit as the food and service was par with many well known brands. The open air portion had a good breeze and spacious enough to feel at peace. The starters as well as the main course was delicious...service was prompt.

Good but service is like an Udipi restaurant
I visited CopaCabana for the first time on 23rd September and was there for lunch with a friend. The ambience is excellent and they have a very varied choice of dishes on the menu to cater to everyone. We focused on Oriental cuisine and the quality of the food was quite good. However, what spoiled the experience for us the over-eagerness of the waiters to serve the next course even before we finished the previous one - sort of like a fast-food Udipi restaurant that brings food to the table as soon as it is ready, rather than waiting for the person to finish each course. I pointed this out to the management and they apologised but the hurried attitude still persisted with the waiters eager to refill our plates during the main course even before we had finished eating. There was no one else waiting to take our seats - it being lunch time on a working day and this quality of service is not expected of a pricey restaurant like CopaCabana

Great Ambience & food - except mutton dishes
Had been to Copacabana for lunch. The place was very well kept, had good amount of parking place. The interiors are very well done and has excellent ambience. The staff was good with average knowledge of the dishes prepared. They definitely lacked the language finesse.
Overall service was very fast. Options were many and the food quality was excellent apart form the Mutton dishes that we had ordered. The mutton was NOT prepared well, it literally was stinking. The chicken dishes and the veg dishes were really good.
The overall rating in terms of cost - it is expensive place.
But would still recommend it if you want to try out something different.

Worst Experience Copa Cabana Pune
I had really worst Experience Copacabana Wakad Road,Pune
Recently we went to Copacabana. The food was horrible salty, and chicken was not fresh. We have ordered imported vodka but quality of vodka was so cheap like local vodka. If you want go then sit in lounge and make sure the bottles if they are serving quality alcohol. I always prefer restaurant with best food and quality stock of alcohol. Once you eat food there you will know what I mean here. We went for my Girlfriends Birthday party we waited long for table and then this place spoiled our joy and evening by horrible food, alcohol, drinks and service:(
The Manager and waiters were rude. Copacabana is worst place I recommend do not go to there unless you want to waste your money.

The ambiance was good, nice slow music ... we loved it.

Importance is given to cleanliness & the staff is very friendly.
Placement of tables makes this place uncongested & the outdoor seating is totally calm & serene.

Hawaiian experience with blissful space
Welcomed by waiters in Hawaiian Shirt carrying gadgets to place your order. This place has ample of space that gives the added points. The location even amidst residential complex do not bring the housey feel to it. Small ponds with water flowing is the relaxed and soothing factor.
The Barbeque's Chicken is not to be missed while the rest is just good. Banquet space too is available along side the bar which captures most of the wine and needs of alcoholic consumers. Good place to take a date, lightings of the venue is so smoothly done that it doesn't over do nor does it over shun's. With cabinet's, shacks and hammock placed, it feels like your in one of the islands with a feast happening around.
A kids friendly place with receptionist and waiters as friendly as you want them to be with quality service as per needs. Overall I rate this place a visit once a while.

Superb . . . . .
Copa Cabna is a great place for congenital food. The people there were Hawaiians colour full t-shirts and Bermuda pants which is a quite funny.
We start with soups. The Tom Yum soup was Yum and the Hot and Sour was ok but not soo good. We then tried a platter which had most off the kebabs on the menu. It was quite ok but everyone didnt get everything. E.g. My dad, sister and got a green coloured kebab which my mum didnt get. But it was not too heavy that we could eat any thing more.
For the main course I wanted to try the pizzas and pasta but no one else wanted to. We tried a chicken curry but the waiter said it wasnt there but after some time he said it was and he looked toooo confused. When that curry came it was absolute bland and yuck!! It didnt even dissevered to be on Dhaba menu. We some hoe got taste by adding salt, pepper kept there. Thought the starter were great I think we should have either bought normal butter chicken or something or pastas and pizzas.

Awesome place to have a great time and superb food.
the food feels like there's something new about it.. a real treat for the taste buds.
the place is comfortable and well lit. the decor, ambiance and the soft music give the place a modern look.
the service too was quick and courteous.
Back to the food...
we had ordered Vegetable Satay, Spaghetti Primavera (really cheesey) and Kung pao with jeera rice...
the kung pao was the best, perfect blend of vegetables, spices and sauce..
at the end, loved the small bites of chocolate with the bill..

Great place..but
Copa Cabana rocks!!!
Awesome ambiance plus a good variety of cuisines!
STRANGELY ENOUGH THEY DID'NT HAVE LASAGNA on their menu !!!!............. which was a little turn off for me,as I luv lasagna.
Up-til now I have been to this place twice.........they botched up my bill last time.........swiped my credit card 3 TIMES !!! and then my debit card 1-2 TIMES !!!! ..........since their machine wasn't working .............
However their manager thankfully came up to me explaining the botch up and gave me a cheque of the over swiped amount.
Would luv to visit again but highly apprehensive whether I should use my card ??
Please carry cash to be on the safer side.

RRR - Relaxing, Romantic, Refreshing
Had used the Kalyan Mandapa on the same land as a landmark, before this place came up. So after 4 years when I returned to pune and by chance crossed the area, the Copacabana was a surprise... have been to Copacabana twice.. will put down my impression for both times -
Visit 1 @ July 2010 : The place had newly opened and we observed it the first time .. construction and landscaping around the cabana's were in process... spent time in the lounge area upstairs... the drinks were amazing and did justice to 2 R's - Relaxing, Refreshing.. the fish paturi was great...the kebabs were tender inside and smoking outside.. well cooked and yet juicy..... the starters and drinks were a huge success..! I would rate it 3/5
Visit 2 @ November 2010 : Just after a birthday, so decided to try this place again...the landscaping was completed..the cabana's were done and i must say were pretty impressive..but what bowled us over was the small water fall and the cozy intimate white sitting area around it...we got a place near the cute spring... food as previously was awesome ..we went for the Italian cuisine this time..the bruchesta's for appetizer set the mood rolling ,risotto and pasta made for a taste bud treat ..with a killer dessert ending the three course meal.. The two R's as the previous time was easily achieved..we added the third R- Romantic on this trip. Rating: 4/5
General impression: the place is a must visit as it has the potential to grow into one of the best places around in pune. What amazed me was the charming amalgam of a thriving and jazzy lounge and a intimate romantic restaurant ambience..Both under the same roof.
Unlike most restaurants I have visited where with ageand growing popularity the rating of a place easily slides down from 4 to 3 and later to 2 this place actually went up from a 3 to 4. For my next visit I am hoping for a 5/5 rated experience there hence my final ranking - 5/5 for C&B
Found one small little turn off though: our 2nd visit was a quite dinner for husband and myself, but we were suddenly surprised by two saucily dressed girls approaching hubby dear to offer a free packet of Marlboro as promotion I accept we were in a smoking zone, and hubby was smoking..and no doubt he welcomed the interruption with the biggest grin I ever saw..but on the wife front ..well I wont elaborate as exactly how I wanted to disrupt the peaceful waterfall then . Another R violent Reaction , was controlled half way thru !!!

"Playful prints – Fashion and style should be playful, and nothing is more mesmerizing and fun than a wardrobe with prints to mix and match. Trying contrasting colors, prints and layers or turn it up a notch with metallic and floral patterns. If you are unsure about a look, stay within color families – that way clashing patterns look edgy and avant-garde."
The bottom half of this outfit is made of fabric from Scotland - my only souvenir from the trip. I wasn't able to find apparel that fit, so brought home the next best thing! The vibrant all-over poppy pattern is easy to pair with solids, but I wore it here with my most comfy striped tank (a longtime closet staple, and a worthy buy for just $5).
To make this skirt, I started with my old beginners' skirt tutorial (skipped the pockets) again, which basically entails sewing together two simple rectangular pieces of fabric and adding an elastic waistband. Like last time, I modified it to have elastic only in the back of the waistband, and used SPG's smooth waistband skirt tutorial for the front half. Since it's difficult to find maxi dresses that fit well both in the waist and length, I highly recommend any beginner sewers to try making your own.

When your subscription renews each month, your pricing tier for host products and add-ons is automatically adjusted (as necessary) based on the number of users in your instance.
If you've opted for annual billing for your host product, add-ons are also billed annually. Annual subscriptions for this add-on include a discount (12 months for the price of 10).
If add-on pricing changes after your initial purchase, there's a 60-day grandfathering period during which you can renew based on the old pricing.
- How do I determine my cloud pricing tier?
The cloud add-on tier is set automatically based on the maximum tier of the licensed JIRA applications on your instance. For example, if you have JIRA Software (50 users) and JIRA Service Desk (10 agents) on the same instance, your add-on tier is 50 users.
- Do you offer academic, community, or open-source licenses?
For server add-ons, purchase and renewal is half-price if you have an academic license for your Atlassian host application. Server add-ons are always free for community and open-source licenses. Cloud add-ons do not have discounted or free licenses.
For more details about qualifying for special licenses, see here.
- Can I extend my free trial?
For cloud add-ons, you cannot extend your free evaluation period. All cloud add-ons are immediately subscribed by a user, and we provide a free evaluation period. This is a minimum of 30 days and ends on the second billing cycle after you first subscribe to the add-on.
