Posted by Reineke Reitsma on January 29, 2010
Netbooks are one of the hottest consumer product categories in the consumer technology industry at this moment - at least from an industry perspective. And yesterday, after Apple's iPad announcement, consumer electronics analysts immediately started commenting and sharing their views via blogs, and twitter.
But what I've been missing is the consumer view. Let's take a look at how interested consumers are in small computers like netbooks in general, and how this has changed in the past year.
Note: I realize that the industry may not see the iPad as a netbook but both the netbook and the iPad serve the same consumer need: an easy to carry, multifunctional mobile Internet device. So consumers are likely to compare and contrast them in the product purchase consideration cycle.
What we see is that consumers are mostly interested in netbooks as a second or third PC that they could use while on the go, or that they consider giving one to their children. Netbooks serve a distinct purpose, for more insight please see the report 'Netbooks Are The Third PC Form Factor' by my colleague J.P. Gownder.
Posted by Chris Silva on January 28, 2010
I'm going to strive to keep this short since I'm sure that most readers who've been drawn to this post by the inclusion of "iPad" in the title have a long line of stories and reviews to read about Apple's newest device; there's clearly no shortage.

Mayor Bloomberg: Where's the cybersecurity?
May 27, 2011 10:23am
By Michael Kaiser, NCSA Executive Director
Mayor Bloomberg has noble intentions in making New York City the world's highest-ranking digital city and with the recent release of, "Road Map for the Digital City: Achieving New York City's Digital Future," he underscored this goal even further. The great thing about this plan is that it leverages the collective power of New York's digital sector to keep citizens engaged, provide Internet access, and support municipal functions. The disappointing part is that the plan does not take an aggressive approach to cybersecurity and online safety – a flaw that could turn his dream of a digital city into a nightmare.
Overall, the mayor and his administration have a strong vision for making the city a leader in the digital age but the plan is nearly silent on the issue of safety and security. And in times like these, with record breaking data breaches and ever increasing cyber attacks, building a digital city focused on information sharing without an equal focus on security verges on irresponsible.
A stronger road map would include: a broad sweeping awareness campaign to help keep citizens safe online; a comprehensive approach to K-20 education that graduates young people ready to join the workforce as cyber capable employees; and resources to build a workforce of cybersecurity professional's that are protecting the city's public and private networks and vast digital assets.
Recent research by the National Cyber Security Alliance indicates that as country – and this likely holds true for New York City as well – we have long way to go when it comes to cyber education. The 2011 State of Cyberethics, Cybersafety and Cybersecurity Curriculum in the U.S. Surveyrevealed that just 23 percent of teachers feel well prepared to teach about the risks of cyberbullying, 24 percent feel well prepared to teach about protecting personal information online, and 33 percent feel well prepared to teach about basic computer security skills. Stats such as these should be taken into account when contending for the 'worlds top ranked digital city,' a title that should also mean city residents are well informed about how to stay safe online.
Crimes have digital footprints – from voice mails, text messages, or social network posts used to harass or intimidate a stalking victim or location data that show some one was actually the scene of a crime. Additionally, victims are experiencing crimes that originate from across the globe as cybercriminals steal money and data from governments, business and individuals. New York as leader in so many areas of industry and culture has vast amounts of intellectual property housed on networks across the five boroughs that are prime targets. Training law enforcement to police in the digital age and ensuring the victims of cybercrime needs can be met are essential measures of a prepared and compassionate digital city.
Most cybersecurity discussions start with protecting critical infrastructure such as banking, transportation and utilities that are becoming increasingly dependent on the Internet as a backbone of their operations. A digital city of the future would put resistance to attacks and add resilience if an attack occurs as their number one objective to creating a digital city. After all, if the networks that are the arteries of the city's data and services stop working, the city stops working as well.
The Mayors plan is well-intentioned just not fully conceived. It's more a beta for a digital city than a version 1.0. The good news is that based on some cutting edge efforts going on in other places around the country such as in Michigan with Washtenaw County Cyber Citizenship Coalition and the Securing Our eCity project in San Diego, New York would likely find leaders from across the country to help achieve its goals. Mayor Bloomberg should have little problem finding help with realizing his dream.

Three Court of Appeal judges said someone who consumed "substantial" quantities of alcohol could still be capable of consenting to sex.
However, the judges said if a complainant lost the capacity to consent then that would amount to rape.
They addressed the issue in the case of Benjamin Bree, 25, from Southampton, who had his rape conviction quashed.
The computer software engineer had been found guilty of raping a 19-year-old student after an evening of heavy drinking.
'Substantial quantities'
Sir Igor Judge, Lady Justice Hallett and Mrs Justice Gloster said the appeal had required them to "address the effect of voluntary heavy alcohol consumption as it applies to the law of rape".
In making the ruling, Sir Igor said: "If, through drink - or for any other reason - the complainant has temporarily lost her capacity to choose whether to have intercourse on the relevant occasion, she is not consenting, and subject to questions about the defendant's state of mind, if the intercourse takes place, this would be rape.
"However, where the complainant has voluntarily consumed even substantial quantities of alcohol, but nevertheless remains capable of choosing whether or not to have intercourse, and in drink agrees to do so this would not be rape."
He added that the "capacity to consent may evaporate well before a complainant becomes unconscious".
Summing up
It is the first time the Court of Appeal has looked at the issue since a legal definition of consent in rape cases was established by the Sexual Offences Act 2003.
The law says a person consents to sex if they agree by choice and have the freedom and capacity to make that choice.
Mr Bree had denied raping the woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, but was convicted by a jury at Bournemouth Crown Court and jailed for five years last year.
The student said she had not consented to sex after they had been out in Bournemouth drinking vodka and Red Bull and cider.
The quashing of his conviction related to "deficiencies" in the trial judge's summing up, and Mr Bree was freed from prison on 13 March.
BBC News home affairs correspondent Danny Shaw says the guidelines are intended to clear up confusion around the law and may help prevent people being wrongfully convicted or wrongfully acquitted.

Wolak ready for 2010
By Kurt Wolfheimer
Saturday night at Madison Garden in New York City, junior middleweight contender Pawel Wolak looks to take that next step toward a highly coveted world championship when he squares off against Ishmail "The Arsenal" Arvin. The eight round bout will be featured on the undercard of the HBO doubleheader bouts between Juan Manuel Lopez vs. Steven Luevano and Yuriorkis Gamboa vs. Rogers Mtagwa. Recently signed by Top Rank, Wolak (25-1, 17 KO's) his continually upped his competition and is ready to take that next step when he faces Ishmail Arvin (15-1-4, 7KO's). "He is a tough guy who will continually come right at me and not back down, so it will make for a tough and exciting fight," said Wolak.
Since signing with Top Rank and under the astute management of Ivan Edwards, Wolak has really put himself into future world title consideration. The man nicknamed "The Raging Bull" looked superb in his last bout, scoring a fifth round retirement of Carlos Nascimento (24-2, 20KO's). "Working with Top Rank has been great. I have been fighting consistently and if all goes well, I plan to be in a world title fight by the end of 2010."
He must first get by the dangerous Ishmail Arvin if he hopes to continue on his path toward that elusive world title. Arvin captured a controversial victory over highly regarded Anthony "The Messenger" Thompson in his last bout when he was unable to continue due to a badly cut left eye.
"This will be a tough fight for Pawel because Arvin knows this is a big step up for him too and I am sure he will come in top shape and ready to give it his all," said Wolak's Promoter Ivan Edwards.
"I hope my fans don't miss this one because it is going to be one heck of a fight, said Wolak.

ICANN entered its research into a data exhibit issue in the new gTLD Applicant and GDD portals for the first time on 1 March 2015. The information contained by these postals is from new gTLD Program applicants and new gTLD registry operators.
An examination upheld by two IT consulting firms, according to an update from 30 April 2015, was released by ICANN in March 2015 to assess and analyze all log data from the activation of the portals. The type of the disclosures were concluded in the findings presented in the 27 May 2015 update. Since the previous update, ICANN kept examining this subject and discovered that, besides the previous disclosures, were used to access contact information 2 consumer credentials from eight registry operators. That contact information for registry operators appeared to have been entered negligently according to the information stated in the investigation. In addition, ICANN confirmed that the uncovered registry contact information does not look to have sensitive personally recognizable information. All the damaged parties has been informed of the data exposure.
The examination is now finished. After a careful examination of each step in the data exposures process, namely the way it appeared, ICANN declared that the exposure problems resulted from multiple errors (misconfigurations) in the portals. To avoid these kind of disclosures in the future, there were presented these misconfigurations . Furthermore, ICANN has announced that no other ICANN systems were disordered. ICANN continues to deliver periodically security-based updates as part of a wider, long-term effort to strengthen all of ICANN's digital services.

Where else can we start but with the contentious step-father of the PC industry, Microsoft. The offering from Bill Gates' boys is the second most expensive model we have here (behind only Logitech) and straight off the bat I must stress that the Microsoft Bluetooth driver will run only on Windows XP with Service Pack One installed. So anyone currently not running this system, or not prepared to migrate should skip to the next review now.
I suspect this still leaves us with the majority of readers and your loyalty to the Redmond based giant will be rewarded straight out of the box with what must be the most stylish keyboard and mouse in the group. Simply laying out this package on your desktop will make you feel that your money has been well spent.
Finished entirely in translucent and opaque blues with the occasional flash of silver, Microsoft has created a visually stunning keyboard, a curvy five button mouse and a small but eye catching Bluetooth receiver capable of connecting up to five other devices.
Then the first of what turned out to be many quirks turned up. On first detection, a none too apparent warning gives you 30 seconds to input a security code it supplies on screen or the whole thing goes to hell. In fact, after deliberately letting the timer elapse, I found the only way I could get anything to work again was a complete reinstall of all software from scratch. Conspiracy theories aside, by the end of the setup process I discovered Microsoft hadn't installed the mouse either so I had to do that manually.
Once through this rigmarole, the joy of the new Microsoft keyboard began to win me over. Its keys feel reassuringly well crafted and sound similar to the noise of shutting a door on a BMW. The typing position is simply perfect and I found myself able to use it for hours on end. If this particular review is the longest, that is because I typed it on the Microsoft keyboard.
The layout of the keyboard is also excellent. The secondary functions of the F Keys have been highlighted so handy shortcuts such as Undo, Redo, New, Save, Send and Open become more apparent. The Delete key has also been oversized which is more practical, and the Insert key, which is rarely used but often accidentally toggled, moved up to share the Print Screen key. There is also the usual multimedia array of volume controls, My Document shortcuts and a handy calculator button.
I was less impressed with the mouse. Once in use, its ergonomic curves and arcs felt over exaggerated for any normal hand and my thumb felt as if it had fallen down a crevasse. There was also an irritating lag after any slight pause in use. During a game this would not be a problem, but for any activity when mouse use is more stop/start it becomes incredibly irritating.
But the final nail in the coffin for this supermodel turned up nearly four days later, when the batteries ran flat. Flat in the mouse and low in the keyboard. To my great surprise, they were not even rechargeable. I hadn't noticed this initially because it seemed incomprehensible to me that Microsoft would supply anything less than rechargeable batteries with a £100 product. Of course, Microsoft provided no method of charging the batteries even if they had been rechargeable, so I stumped up for four more batteries and they lasted a week. All in all, I find it somewhat ironic, coming from Microsoft, that however visually pleasing this product may be, it is simply too power hungry.
So despite the pleasing visuals, we kick off with a combo that is a perfect example of style over substance.
Microsoft has created a great looking package with a keyboard that's a joy to use. Unfortunately, the horrendous battery life and lack of rechargeable feature makes it hard to recommend.

How can I get my Pug Puppy to stop screaming in the kennel at night?
Whenever I put my Pug Puppy in his kennel at night he goes to the bathroom in it at about 3am and then screams the rest of the night. The kennel is not to big for him. It has been over a month and I dont no what to do I have tired feeding him earlier which makes no differnce. I have tried leaving him in a room with his doggy bed and a training pad and then he does leave his bed to go the bathroom on the pad but starts screaming still. We have ignored him the problem is he does not stop he will scream for over 4 hours. My family is at their witts end with getting no sleep and want to send him back. Is there anything I can do??

Like a newborn baby, a puppy is a lot of work. I'm not sure how old the pup is but I'm assuming less than 5 months. Your dog's bladder isn't strong enough for him to hold all night so his only option is to urinate in his crate. You must build him up to the point of where he is competant enough to hold it all night. Try getting up at 2am and bringing him outside to do his business. Then again at 6am. After about a week or two, start getting up later and later - eventually, he'll go the whole night without going in his crate.

There is a simple answer to this, and it has worked with many dogs before.
Hit the kennel.
Our shelter dog barked all night long in his kennel, even if there was someone right next to him. We finally acted on someone's advice and hit the kennel. He never barked again.
Jake answered on 12/27/07. Helpful? / 0
Cindy Lou Who (love the name) is absolutely right. Puppies have small bladders and small puppies have smaller bladders. I fostered a 3 1/2 month boston terrier who was a doll. But she needed extra attention. Like my Bullmastiff when she was a puppy, I had to let the puppy out of the crate every few hours to pee and poop. She would bark when I put her back in the crate and went upstairs. Someone told me to try hiting the crate but that only made it worse and her more scared. I brought the crate in the bedroom so she could hear and smell me and we had no more problems with noise. HOWEVER, it is still your responsibility to take your puppy out ever 3-4 hours to go to the bathroom. Like a human child, it takes time for a bladder to develop and muscles to learn how to hold it. As an adult they can hold it for 6-8 hours depending on the dog. When you take your puppy to training class, they can start after 3 mon. your trainer will get to know your dog and offer advice. Good luck
Bella answered on 12/27/07. Helpful? / 1
Cindy Lou Who and Bella gave you very good advice, and I wholeheartedly agree with what they wrote.
You don't say how old your puppy is? The rule of thumb with pups is that you take their age in months and that is how long you can expect puppy to hold his pee in hours. So a three months old puppy should not be expected to hold it for more than three hours at a time.
Most puppies, especially young puppies, cannot hold their pee the entire night, even if they are kenneled. You're going to have to adjust your schedule in order to "fix" this problem. Your pup will need to go out in the middle of the night, at least once - if not twice. As your pup goes around 3am, set your alarm for just before that, take him outside, and then place him back in the kennel.
NEVER hit the crate to get a puppy to stop screaming. All that does is scare the puppy and hurt your bond with your dog. There are better methods than intimidation in training.

Have you tried putting something with your smell in the crate with the pup? I would try that.

I had that problem with crispin for 1.5 years what my mommy did was have the crate in the living room with her while she sewed or watched tv , in the kitchen when she cooked and at an angle i could see her at night soon enough i got used to being in the crate and she would SlOWLY GIVE ME TIME OUT OF IT.

Sulaiman: NSAC has crossed the line!
WBC President Dr. Jose Sulaiman has ripped the Nevada State Athletic Commission's selection of judges in his recent "Hook to the Liver" column published in El Universal:
"There are some boxing commissions who believe their home is Heaven, and that they are almighty. They don't understand or recognize that a WBC world champion is exclusive to our agency, for being the one and only owner of this accolade.
"In the case of the September 15 fight in Las Vegas, we are not responsible for the appointment of judges. The Nevada Commission humiliated us, taking out of their sleeve a judge who has only acted for another organization … and that the WBC has never named. This has passed the line of tolerance, and I do not doubt that major steps must be taken to challenge discrimination, abuse, and lack of respect for the most basic principle of justice and rights."
It is believed that the appointment upsetting Sulaiman is WBA judge Stanley Christodoulou being brought in from South Africa to work the Chavez-Martinez fight.

Tike Barber thinks what?
Even Giants fans would admit that their beloved signal caller is the second best (or third best) quarterback in the Manning family. And yet the claim that Barber made on his CBS Sports Radio morning show was that Eli is better than Peyton Manning.
In his first year removed from the Giants, Barber said on NBC that it was comical to watch Eli Manning try to act as a leader. Now, though, Barber has completely changed his tune thanks to the younger Manning's great performances when the stakes are the highest.
"Because of clutch," said Barber when explaining why Eli is superior, "What matters in sports? It's winning and losing."
It's true that Eli has two Super Bowl rings while Peyton only has one, but the difference between the two in "clutch" situations isn't night and day. The edge that Eli supposedly has on Peyton is really as small as the difference of Tracy Porter catching a Peyton Manning interception in Super Bowl XLIV and Asante Samuel dropping an Eli Manning interception in Super Bowl XLII.
Enough about "what ifs," though. For Eli's career, 3.2 percent of his pass attempts have been interceptions and 4.7 percent have gone for touchdowns. Peyton during his career has thrown for 2.7 percent interceptions and 5.6 percent touchdowns. When the chips are down, Peyton has a better chance at making a big play and also a better chance at avoiding disaster. If you only look at playoffs, the percentages swing in Eli's favor. He throws touchdowns 4.8 percent of the time and interceptions 2.2 percent of the time. Peyton's percentages are 4.2 and 2.7, respectively. For Eli, though, those rates are accumulated over the course of 11 games, or roughly two-thirds of a regular season. Peyton has played 20 playoff games in his career, and it's tougher to maintain a great playoff performance like Eli's over a larger sample.
Will the younger brother's next playoff game be more like 2007 and 2011 or like 2008 and 2005? Giants fans are just hoping that Eli and the rest of the team will show up for the playoffs this season.
That's not the case for Denver Broncos fans. That's because Peyton has led his team to the postseason in every season he's played since 2002. While Eli is capable of a great performance from time to time, it takes a truly great player to consistently play at a high level. If Eli can learn to do that, we can actually start to have a serious argument about Barber's claim. Until then, this sort of talk is just wishful thinking.

Of all the conversations revealed in Tony Blair's memoir none is perhaps as tantalising as the one with Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
In a scene that might have come straight out of a Stephen Frears film, Blair tells how he met Ferguson during a difficult period with Gordon Brown.
What would you do if your best player won't do what you want him to and just does his own thing? Blair asked.
Chuck him out of the team, Ferguson says.
But what if he's still in the dressing room? Blair reflects.
In his interview with the Guardian, Blair denied ever discussing cabinet reshuffles with Ferguson – "but he was always very good value on leadership".

A plant-based diet is rich in healthy ingredients like whole grains, produce, nuts, legumes and soy. A vegan diet excludes all animals and animal products such as meat, eggs, dairy, honey and gelatin. It's easy to go vegan when the recipes taste as good as these do. It's entirely possible to enjoy a vegan diet and also reap the benefits of some absolutely exceptional flavor. If you're planning to go vegan, stock up on versatile ingredients like jackfruit, avocados, coconut oil, and nut milks.
Jackfruit Carnitas Tacos
This flavorful fiesta-on-a-plate involves an unlikely main ingredient: fruit! Jackfruit is an extremely versatile ingredient because it absorbs and takes on the flavors of spices and other ingredients incredibly well, which helps lend these tacos their authentic flair. The fruit itself is pale in color and has a flaky, meaty texture, which makes it the perfect meat substitute for a vegetarian or vegan dinner option so everyone can enjoy it.
Butternut-Cauliflower-Coconut Curry
A range of textures--crunchy peas, tender vegetables, and silky coconut broth--makes this cool-weather main incredibly satisfying. The chickpea mixture can also be a delicious gluten-free snack: After baking, toss with a little kosher salt, ground cumin, and ground red pepper.
Millet Amaranth Buddha BowlsImagine a classic Asian-style rice bowl, but with a risotto-like blend of millet and amaranth as the base. At Vital Root in Denver, chef-owner Justin Cucci tops the grains with loads of vegetables and tofu, then drizzles on a silky tahini sauce.
White Bean and Jackfruit Chili
The jackfruit brings a great texture while the supporting flavors lend an unforgettable quality that simply proves that a meatless chili can be very satisfying.
Tahiree Vegetable and Rice Casserole
This ancient dish traces its roots to India's Kayastha community, who developed it as a unique variation of biryani. In tahiree, rice and other elements cook together, while biryani rice is cooked separately and then layered with meat and vegetables. Saran uses Royal Chef's Secret basmati--available at Asian markets--because it has the longest grain. He fluffs gently with a carving fork to keep grains intact.
Wild Rice Salad with Cranberries and Pecans
Featuring cranberries, wild rice, toasted pecans, and scallions, this salad is full of fall flavor.
Indian Chopped Salad
Combining chopped vegetables with lime juice, ground cumin, and other seasonings give this Indian-style salad a unique flavor.
Quinoa Salad with Apples, Almonds and Dried Cranberries
Toss quinoa with diced apples, toasted almonds, and dried cranberries and serve with a large lettuce leaf.
Chili-Roasted Acorn Squash
Coat acorn squash slices with a mixture of chili powder, cumin, and paprika before roasting them until tender.
Cashew-Lime Cilantro Hummus"Invited to a party at the last minute, I invented this hummus from what I had on hand," says reader Maria August, of Boulder. "To my surprise, I liked it better than the traditional tahini version." Serve with fresh-cut vegetables, such as jicama, carrot, red pepper, and celery sticks.
Grits with Creamed Cashews"I tell people to use true grits, rather than polenta," says Oakland cookbook writer Bryant Terry, author of The Inspired Vegan, because he likes the grits' coarser texture. "I also prefer yellow grits for both color and flavor."
Barbecue Slawpy Jacks
This hearty vegan entrée is essentially a cross between a sloppy Joe and a barbecue sandwich and a creative way for vegans this traditional classic.
Eggplant Involtini with Grilled RatatouilleFaux cheeses made with nuts are key to vegan cooking. To stuff these involtini, chef Sean Baker of Gather in Berkeley re-creates the flavor of ricotta by combining pureed raw cashews with nutritional yeast, which has a very savory, almost cheese-like flavor and is available at well-stocked specialty and natural food stores.
Can't-Believe-It's-Vegan ChiliThis dish is sure to make it into your regular rotation: completely satisfying chili that cooks in a fraction of the time it takes to make traditional meat chili. This recipe makes plenty; freeze leftovers for up to three months. Vegan sausage varies widely in taste and texture; we liked the meatiness and mild heat of the Field Roast brand, Mexican Chipotle flavor.
Farfalle with Artichokes, Peppers, and AlmondsGround almonds take the place of pasta's usual parmesan, making this a good vegan choice. Trim raw artichokes down to the very tender hearts and slice them quite thin, so they're crisp but not chewy.
Red Lentil SoupSoupCycle in Portland, Oregon, offers soups with wacky names ranging from Flemish Farm (a vegan take on French onion soup) to Who Framed Ginger Rabbit (carrot soup with ginger). Owners Jed Lazar and Shauna Lambert call this lentil soup Pot of For Goodness Sake! because the ingredients are so healthy.
One-Pan RatatouilleThis classic vegetable stew is simple to make and loaded with nutrients like Vitamins C and A, potassium, fiber, and folate. You can serve it over pasta, polenta, or bread to create a hearty, complete meal in one bowl.
Pad Thai with TofuIt's easy to eat your vegetables when you feast on this popular Thai dish. Light coconut milk, tofu, and peanuts add plenty of protein while bean sprouts, carrots and green onions top flavored noodles for extra crunch and flavor.
Rye and Butternut Squash DressingCube the bread a day or two ahead and leave it out on the counter to dry, so it will fully absorb the flavors of the dressing. (If you forget, you can dry it in a 375° oven for a few minutes.) For a moister dressing, use the larger amount of broth. This makes a good main dish for vegans (use kosher rye, which excludes dairy).
Portobello FritesThis spin on the bistro staple steak frites offers plenty of umami satisfaction in the form of juicy, meaty portobello mushrooms and a savory wine sauce. Finishing the sauce with a touch of vegan butter gives it luxurious and velvety consistency.
Quinoa and Brown Rice Bowl with Vegetables and Tahini"While in Los Angeles filming the second season of Top Chef Just Desserts last year, I discovered Café Gratitude, a vegan café with a cult following," Gail Simmons says. "For me, its fresh, simple food was the perfect antidote to all that sugar. I became addicted to aptly named dishes like I Am Fortified—a bowl of whole grains with lots of cooked vegetables. When I got back to New York, I developed my own version."
Grilled Polenta and Radicchio with Balsamic DrizzleChef Ryan Poli of the soon-to-open Tavernita in Chicago became interested in vegan cooking because his girlfriend follows a mostly vegan diet. "It was difficult to cook for her at home," he says. "I couldn't just open the fridge and make something. I had to really think." This relatively simple dish of grilled polenta and radicchio proves it's possible to create something deeply delicious, substantial and vegan with just a handful of ingredients.
Grilled Baby Eggplants with Green Onion SalsaIf you can't find the type of eggplant we used, go for small, slender Japanese eggplants instead.
Tofu MarsalaFor a vegan twist on the traditional marsala, substitute tofu for chicken. Thyme, bay leaves, and black peppercorns create a rich and aromatic sauce while green onions and fresh parsley add a burst of color and flavor.
Black Bean TacosFill these vegan tacos with black beans and seitan (wheat gluten) for a generous dose of protein and fiber. Seitan has a chewy, meat-like texture and can be found in health food stores or Asian markets. Top the tacos with tangy avocado salsa for a zesty kick.
Open-Faced Falafel BurgersA falafel is a Middle-Eastern specialty made by deep-frying ground chickpea patties. This recipe cuts the fat by pan-frying the patties in a small amount of oil. Serve the burgers open-faced on a pita, top with veggies and drizzle with the tangy sauce.
Hummus-Veggie Sandwich on Whole GrainHummus, veggies, and a hint of garlic and lemon are a sandwich lover's dream. Hummus-Veggie Sandwich on Whole Grain is hearty and satisfying, and a cool break during a day on the beach.
Veggie Burgers with Pomegranate KetchupEating vegan for a month led Richard Blais to examine his pantry more closely. He discovered that ground porcini mushrooms add a meaty flavor to dishes like his veggie burger.
Marinara Sauce Over RotiniCapers add a tangy boost to this quick and easy marinara sauce. Use any shape pasta and finish off the meal with a side salad and warm bread.
Vegetarian West African SoupA long-time staple in the Middle East, the chickpea, also known as the garbanzo bean, is a great source of protein and is easy on your budget. Peanuts and sweet potatoes pack this dish with fiber and Vitamin E creating a nutritious and flavorful meal.
Coconut Pan-Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Sesame SeedsVirgin coconut oil is unrefined and cold-pressed, like extra-virgin olive oil, and isn't hydrogenated. It has a clean, slightly nutty taste that's delicious in this dish. Deborah Madison, who adapted this recipe from one in a new revision of her book Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone (1997), likes to use a mix of sweet potatoes, but it's fine to go with just one kind. Paler sweet potatoes tend to be drier, so if you use them, add more oil.
Slow-Cooker Veggie ChiliThis comforting classic warms you up and curbs your hunger with fiber-and protein-rich beans. Instead of using 4 cans of the same beans, mix and match pinto, red kidney, great Northern, and black beans to give this chili even more variety. Finish with fresh chopped green onions and a dash of hot sauce for a flavor boost.
Bow Tie Pasta with Cherry Tomatoes, Capers, and BasilMake use of garden fresh tomatoes and basil with this Mediterranean-inspired pasta dish. Serve warm with a crisp side salad and garlic bread or chill and enjoy at an afternoon picnic.
Carrot "Tabbouleh"Fresh carrots stand in for bulgur in this no-cook, gluten-free side dish. You can use white wine vinegar in place of lemon juice.
Spicy Asparagus-Tempeh Stir-FryA heart-healthy and protein-rich alternative to meat, tempeh is a soy cake that's made by fermenting and pressing cooked soybeans. Its chewy consistency is complemented by the crunchy asparagus while red pepper flakes add heat.
Hummus and Grilled-Zucchini PizzasPrepared hummus that comes with a scoop of chopped garlic on top (like the kind sold by Sabra) is the secret here: The garlic gets mixed with oil to marinate the zucchini, while the remaining garlic and hummus flavor the whole pizza.
Quick Vegetarian PaellaThis Spanish classic is simple to prepare and easily doubled to serve a crowd. Artichokes, bell peppers, mushrooms and olives cooked with nutty brown rice make this a hearty one dish meal. The blend of exotic spices including saffron and tumeric give an extra special flavor.
Lentil-Edamame StewDouble the protein and get more bang for your buck by combining two types of legumes, lentils and soy beans. Both are inexpensive sources of protein that are commonly used in many exotic cuisines. A variety of fresh herbs and spices adds a deep, rich flavor.
Two-Tone Potato SaladPickled onions and cucumber relish add a tangy kick to Emilee Gettle's blue-and-gold potato salad. Because she and Jere Gettle don't eat eggs, they opt for vegan mayonnaise.
Billy's Vegan Egg RollsBilly Ngo, now chef at Kru, a Japanese restaurant in Sacramento, shared this dish inspired by his previous restaurant, Red Lotus. He deep-fries these, but at home it's easier to brush them with oil and bake them until they're crisp. If you're short on time, you could buy plum sauce instead of making the vinegar-pink peppercorn sauce.
Spiced Lemon QuinoaBack home in South India, Sunset reader Kavita Aiyar's mom made traditional lemon rice scattered with channa dal (a yellow, lentil-like legume). At her home in Silicon Valley, Kavita cooks quinoa instead of rice and adds spinach or other greens, "basically California-izing it," she says. She suggests split peas instead of the dal because they're easier to find. You can serve the recipe as a side dish or a vegan entrée.
Nutty Almond-Sesame Red QuinoaWe love the color and texture of red quinoa, but regular quinoa also works well.
Peanut-Broccoli Stir-fryStir-fry is an easy go-to meal option for vegans because of its versatility. Create a new recipe each time you cook simply by combining different vegetables or throwing in extras like tofu and nuts.
Chunky Vegetarian ChiliIt's no wonder why our readers love this recipe. Not only is it a fiber-rich alternative for vegans, it's so flavorful and hearty that even meat-eaters enjoy it. The juicy tomatoes, bell peppers, and spices pack in tons of flavor.
Curried Red Kidney Beans and Cauliflower (Rajma Masala)This Indian-inspired curried bean dish makes for a hearty vegetarian meal, especially when served with a helping of brown rice. The red kidney beans boast a host of nutritional benefits; the ginger helps your body make the most of those benefits.
Roasted Whole CarrotsRoasting carrots whole makes the prep easier and also offers a pretty presentation.
Marinated Tofu with Sticky Rice and AsparagusWho needs steak? Tofu can have just as much flavor with the right seasoning. Brown sugar and hoisin sauce add a bold sweetness to the thick, barbeque-like marinade. Even though the word "hoisin" translates to "seafood" in Mandarin, this sauce is made from sweet potatoes and does not contain fish.
Mixed Vegetable and Farro SoupEataly's vegetable counter specializes in vegan dishes—specifically, vegan dishes that people might not suspect are vegan. One is this thick, hearty soup made with a colorful mix of carrots, peas, leek and onion. Mario Batali also adds borlotti beans and farro, which make the soup hearty enough to be a main course. The crunchy grissini on the side aren't vegan; they're sweetened with honey.
Stir-Fried Vegetables and TofuUnlike traditional stir-fry dishes, this one uses white wine to bring out the flavors of the vegetables. The mushrooms, carrots and squash are great sources of vitamins, fiber, and potassium and combined with tofu, make for a nutritious and filling meal.
Tofu with Red Curry Paste, Peas, and Yellow TomatoesThe red curry paste adds a punch of heat to this dish but you can add more or less depending on your preference. Serve on a bed of long grain or jasmine rice and finish with a squeeze of lime. The tartness of the lime juice contrasts nicely with the heat of the curry.
Chili Garlic BroccoliniChili garlic sauce can be found on the international aisle of most supermarkets. Add to stir-fries or marinades, stir into ketchup for a spicy kick, or top scrambled eggs.
Chilled Corn SoupThis recipe for chilled corn soup yields an incredibly sumptuous, velvety concoction—but it's vegan—and nearly fat-free—and uses one of summer's best and cheapest vegetables. Use corn at the peak of freshness as this simple preparation will highlight corn's natural sweetness.
Orange-Jicama SaladJicama offers a hearty crunch while orange slices balance out a sweetness to this great side dish.
Carrot Osso BucoIn Richard Blais's playful vegan take on osso buco (braised veal shanks), he braises very large pieces of carrots in red wine and mushroom broth until tender. Ground dried porcini mushrooms give the dish rich, meaty flavor.

Hi guys, Peaches here, I just wanted to say that I think I'm a Tiger. I'm much bigger than my two siblings which makes me feel like the leader of our small pride or family. The fact that I'm also orange makes me feel like i should be adopted by a mother Tiger. Just my opinion though I guess because my Mom just thinks its funny when I try to roar. (its not very loud). Oh well, I guess I'll just have to stay a silly housecat for a while longer. I couldn't leave anyway, I love my family too much :)
Peaches is the best little kitty ever. when he was little, he was so chubby from all his mama's milk that when i brought him home for the first few weeks he would try to run and chase Kasspur but he couldnt quite get the speed he needed because hi chubby belly was in the way. he had short stubby legs and a chubby belly. it took awhile for him to grow his legs out and lose his belly even though he still has a small pudge there but he has the legs now not to really worry about it. he got so big in such a short time, he weighs only about 12 lbs i think but he is still adding onto that number.

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
It's the winter meetings, and as usual, the Red Sox are extremely busy working the phones.
With the help of MLBTR, Twitter, and other resources, here's the latest going on with the Red Sox on the trade market…
The Red Sox are in discussions with the A's about closer Andrew Bailey. In some proposed offers rumored, the Red Sox would be sending Josh Reddick and a package of prospects (not including 3B Will Middlebrooks) to the A's for Bailey.
It makes sense for the A's, who will likely be without all of their 2011 starting outfielders (David DeJesus, Josh Willingham, Coco Crisp). It also makes for the Red Sox, who desperately need some help in the back end of the bullpen, especially if they really want to move Daniel Bard to the starting rotation.
With Chicago in rebuilding mode after trading closer Sergio Santos to the Blue Jays and letting Mark Buehrle leave to sign with the Marlins, the Red Sox have expressed interest in outfielder Carlos Quentin (.254/.340/.499 in 2011).
The teams met about the 29-year-old outfielder, but no framework for a trade has been built yet, according to the Globe's Nick Cafardo.
Sticking with the White Sox are rebuilding theme, the Red Sox have also inquired about starters John Danks (8-12, 4.33 ERA) and Gavin Floyd (12-13, 4.37 ERA).
Danks, at 26, is the more desirable player, but Chicago is looking for a "Ubaldo Jimenez package" for Danks. Jimenez was traded to the Indians at last year's trade deadline for four prospects, including two former first rounders.
The Red Sox have interest in both the Texas relievers, while the Rangers have an interest in infielder Jed Lowrie, according to MLB.com's T.R. Sullivan. Both Uehara (65 IP, 2.35 ERA) and Lowe (45 IP, 3.80 ERA) are eligible for free agency after 2012.
Lowrie is without a starting job with the Red Sox, assuming Marco Scutaro reclaims his spot at shortstop in 2012. Lowrie has shown some pop the last couple seasons, but he has had serious issues staying healthy. Last year, he slumped badly after a scorching start, finishing .252/.303/.382.

Guerrero demolishes Archer
Unbeaten super middleweight star Fernando Guerrero (15-0, 13 KOs) massacred Chris Archer (11-9, 7 KOs) on Saturday night at Fitzgerald's Casino & Hotel in Tunica, Mississippi. Guerrero battered Archer from the opening bell, flooring Archer with body shots in both rounds one and two. Guerrero sent Archer down again in the third with a further body assault and referee Randy Phillips waved it off moments later. Time was 2:15.
Unbeaten jr middleweight Shawn Porter (10-0, 8 KOs) demolished Lamar Harris (6-3, 4 KOs), dropping Harris three times before the bout was stopped at 2:18 of round one.
Unbeaten middleweight Dominic Wade (4-0, 4 KOs) blitzed Tyrone Dowdy (4-20, 3 KOs) in less than a round. Dowdy's corner threw in the towel just as he was floored after 2:25 of punishment.
In his first fight under the Prize Fight Boxing banner, heavyweight Chazz Witherspoon (26-1, 18 KOs) annihilated late sub Willie Perryman (10-20, 7 KOs). In round two, Witherspoon dropped Perryman, got a standing eight round in his follow up barrage, then dropped Perryman again to end it. Time was 2:09.
In his professional debut, former amateur standout Mike Wilson (1-0) destroyed "Marvelous" Marvin Hunt (12-24-1, 5 KOs) with a huge right hand at 1:59 in round one of a heavyweight bout.

I've related this single experience with the .357 Magnum here on the Forum before. I've never been a lawman but once tagged along to the scene of a shooting with a good friend who was the chief investigator for the Sheriff's office for our county. We'd been to the range shooting and were sitting at my reloading bench, cleaning and admiring the new 2 1/2-inch Smith & Wesson Model 66 he'd just acquired when the call came over his radio. He asked me if I wanted to go along.
A young woman with two kids is being repeatedly abused by a drinking/drugging husband with a very mean streak. She goes into hiding in another town, put up in a spare rental house by her boss and his wife who owns the restaurant where she waitresses. The boss also lends her a Llama Comanche .357 Magnum revolver with a 4-inch barrel for self protection in case the husband discovers her whereabouts. If you are unfamiliar with the Comanche think 4-inch K-Frame Smith & Wesson sized revolver.
The creep discovers her whereabouts and one evening and breaks down the door and begins snatching her bald headed and beating her up with his fists in front of their children, a little boy and girl, both 3-5 years old. She retreats to the kitchen, procures the revolver and shoots twice. The first shot misses but the second centers his heart, putting him on his back on the floor, "deader 'n a mackerel." When they rolled him over he had an exit wound of less than an inch in diameter. A perfect hit and fight over.
The load used was one that I would have tagged as prone to over-penetration and it sure did with him, a skinny runt who probably weighed no more than 135 lbs.. After punching him through and through, it smacked into the sheetrock wall in the kitchen, breaking the paper backing and making a dent. It then bounced off and ended up beneath a kitchen cupboard 10 feet away. I found the bullet after the other deputies failed to. It was a 158 grain jacketed soft point, barely deformed on its lead nose. It could have almost been reloaded into another case and fired again. Sometime later after the incident, my friend disposed of the remainder of the box of ammunition that was used in the shooting by giving it to me. She was no-billed by the way and the shooting ruled justified.
It was a box of factory Federal 158 grain JSP ammunition. Not really a first choice for personal defense but undeniably effective. I shot some of it over my chronograph from a 6-inch Smith & Wesson Model 27. It clocked a hair over 1300 fps, something like 1308 fps. From the 4-inch Llama Comanche it probably gave a velocity of 1250-1280 fps.
Over-penetration certainly can be an issue but in this instance the bullet didn't have enough energy left to even penetrate a single 1/2-inch piece of sheetrock. It still could have made a nasty, or even fatal wound for someone if they had been behind the creep. In this particular instance though, the bullet didn't accomplish the stupendous penetration that is feared in so many forum posts. Of course on another occurrence, results could be completely different.
Oh, the first shot that missed. It traveled through a door opening between the kitchen and a long combination living/dining room, struck the sheetrock wall over the front windows of the house which faced the street, and exiting the house which had exterior wood siding. It is doubtful that the bullet penetrated any stud in the wall. That bullet could have been a problem. Unless its trajectory was altered by impact with the front wall of the house it likely arced over the house across the street to come down somewhere in the tiny "downtown" district in the center of this small farming community of 500 or fewer folks.

I will be the ONLY one but I like the wadcutters. Nice clean cookie cutter hole, without worrying about will it open. or won't it open
Nope, you're not the only one. I like the semi-wadcutters in revolvers and it matters not to me if they have a hollow point or not.
For a "real" .357 Magnum round, stoke up some nicely cast lead 158 grain SWCs over a healthy charge of 2400 as found in the Lyman manuals from days of yore. Current .357 loadings pale to .38 Special status by comparison. That was the way do do the mighty .357 Magnum rather than these parsimonious "-P" .357 loadings currently promoted.

It is amazing how "watered down" most loads, especially .357, are compared to the late 70s and early 80s.
Personally, I like(d) W296 for hot .357 loads.

You know who requested the SAAMI down grading of .357 Mag pressures from 43,500 to 35,000, right?
I still prefer W296 for hot .357 loads.

Hi Guantes;
I've read that claim about lowering .357 Magnum pressures for the K-Frame Smith & Wessons on forums just in the recent past. May in fact, be true but it sure smacks of an internet rumor. No amount of searching seems to find hard documentation but rather a continuous circle of forum repetition. No matter, the .357 Magnum belongs in larger revolvers rather than smaller.

Scott Sullivan admitted to jurors he was willing to commit fraud to meet Wall Street earnings projections.
Mr Ebbers is on trial for fraud and conspiracy in relation to WorldCom's collapse in 2002. He pleads not guilty.
Mr Sullivan has spent two days being cross-examined by lawyers for former Worldcom chief executive Mr Ebbers.
'Short term'
Attorney Reid Weingarten has attempted to portray Mr Sullivan as a liar and on Thursday quizzed him about his decision to commit fraud to meet analysts' profit estimates.
"At that point in time," Mr Sullivan said, referring to the first false entries in late 2000, "I knew it was wrong and I knew it was against the law, but I thought we would get through it in the short term."
Mr Sullivan, 42, has already pleaded guilty to fraud and will be sentenced following Mr Ebbers' trial, where he is appearing as a prosecution witness.
Mr Ebbers, 63, has always insisted that he was unaware of any hidden shortfalls in WorldCom's finances.
The former finance officer said Mr Ebbers knew about the improper accounting entries that were made between 2000 and 2002 to conceal soaring expenses and inflate revenue.
Buyout deal
Mr Ebbers could face a sentence of 85 years if convicted of all the charges he is facing.
WorldCom's problems appear to have begun with the collapse of the dotcom boom which cut its business from internet companies.
Prosecutors allege that the company's top executives responded by orchestrating massive fraud over a two-year period.
WorldCom emerged from bankruptcy protection in 2004, and is now known as MCI.
On Monday, MCI agreed to a buyout by Verizon Communications in a deal valued at $6.75bn.

A temporary release of greater water flow on the Upper Nantahala River in late September provided recreational boaters with an opportunity for a thrill – and provided students and faculty members in the Parks and Recreation Management Program an opportunity to survey their satisfaction with it.
The program's Maurice Phipps, Ben Tholkes and Cass Morgan guided the design of the survey distributed and collected by the students during the two-day event, as well as the collation of data into a report titled "First Upper Nantahala River Recreational Water Release: A Whitewater Boater Experience Evaluation." Students Jordan Grant, Cody Jones, Stephen Parsons and Zedron Porter participated, and Morgan supervised the study.
Recreational releases of water are mandated eight days a year by the federal government's license to Duke Energy for operation of hydroelectric dams on the river, issued last February. Increases in flow from these first releases – totaling as much as 425 cubic feet per second – provided between Class III and Class V water conditions on the Upper Nantahala and Cascades runs for advanced paddlers of kayaks, inflatable rafts and other whitewater craft. Difficulty in whitewater navigation is ranked by class, with Class I generally regarded as navigable by novice floaters and Class V (sometimes VI) very difficult to almost impassable by expert/experienced paddlers.
Because large numbers of paddlers were expected Saturday, Sept. 29, and Sunday, Sept. 30, free shuttle service to facilitate multiple runs was provided by Nantahala Outdoor Center. An outdoor recreation treat (a Clif Bar) was provided by another sponsor, American Whitewater, as an incentive to respond to the survey. Students administered the nine-question, one-page surveys in the powerhouse area in Beechertown both days. In all, 328 surveys were collected and 252 fully completed surveys were available for data analysis. Phipps estimated that 750 to 800 paddlers participated in the event.
The surveys queried demographics, type of craft used, area of the river covered (and how many runs), plus opinions on flow level, difficulty, acceptability of river characteristics and satisfaction with shuttle service.
Almost 100 percent of respondents felt that the experience met their expectations. About two-thirds selected "outstanding" as a description of their overall experience.
Comments included observations about the runs, suggestions and a few criticisms that were factored into conclusions and recommendations of the report written by the survey group from WCU.
"The research was good experience for the students and good service to the region," said Phipps.
Future recreational releases will be scheduled on the Nantahala River for a Saturday and Sunday in April, plus four summer afternoons in addition to the two-day autumn release each year. Recreational releases also are planned for the dam at Lake Glenville on the Tuckaseigee River. Duke Energy posts PDF calendars of scheduled releases for the two rivers at the website page http://www.duke-energy.com/lakes/nantahala/nan-scheduled-flow-releases .

Hey everyone, I am looking for a nice, simple yet powerful blog script very much like this: http://codecanyon.net/item/easy-blog/54549 – the reason I'm not using this one is because of the license, as I will be using it again and again.
I think Wordpress is a good option but complex and fiddly for a lot of people who just need a basic blog system without all the bells and whistles!
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Ooo just remembered I hacked up a quick cms that I had planned to add to themeforest.
Old post about it:
Might be able to develop it further – not sure how much interest is out there for basic cms's like this though.
Hi dtbaker, I need a simple blog script my clients can use for quick posts and latest news on their site using a cms, something very simple that anyone can use! Oh, and with an RSS function too!

The Wildcats were the favorites by many of experts from the start of the season, and most of it was because they have the best player in the game, Anthony Davis. "Anthony Davis is a great player, but he's not Superman," said an unimpressed Kansas coach Bill Self.
A lot of people are not happy with the NCAA rules that allow a player to be in the court one year, and then goes to the NBA draft; coach John Calipari has been one of the best 'fooling the rule', and he knows it.
"I don't like the rules," Calipari said. "I want Anthony to come back and be my point guard next year. It's really what I want. There are only two solutions to it. Either I can recruit players who are not as good as the players I'm recruiting, or I can try to convince guys who should leave to stay for me."
The Oddsmakers also think Kentucky is a big favorite in this game; they currently have the Wildcats listed as 6-point favorites versus the Jayhawks, and the game's total is 137½.
The Wildcats had a push in the 69-61 victory over Louisville as they were 8 points favorites, and Kansas covered a three point underdog spread against Ohio State with a 64-62 win over the Buckeyes.
This is obviously a rivalry game, and despite there is no doubt in my mind the Wildcats are the best team, I think eight points could be a lot to cover. I'll take Kansas with the points.

What You Need To Know About Your Spouse's Money
It's the marriage statistic you don't want to hear: 45% of marriages end in divorce. Of course, this doesn't have to be your marriage, but it does mean you need to know everything about your partner before tying the knot.
One of the most uncomfortable conversations you might have to have is about money, but you need to clear the air and build a solid, financial strategy. So take a few minutes and sit down with your beloved and lay all your cards on the table. You may be surprised at what you don't know.
By the end of your conversation, you should be able to answer the following questions:
How Much Debt Do We Have?
When planning to take someone for better or for worse it includes every aspect of their life, including any debt they may be bringing into the relationship.
Viewing the negative balances can help you decide on a team approach tackling this problem and can actually help you better assess and budget for your impending nuptials.
What Has Our Relationship with Money Been Like?
Although you two lovebirds are planning a future together, you both have past relationships. Although it is taboo to talk about exes it is imperative that you define your money management style.
Are you a saver marrying a spender or vice-versa? Then a strategy that involves merging some finances into a joint account (for expenses) while keeping separate accounts for a little space can do the trick nicely.
What is Our Credit Score?
Everyone's life experiences are different and while your choices may have resulted in a score over 800, your soon-to-be may be coming in at the 600 mark. Discussing your credit scores in advance will not only remove any chance for any unpleasant surprises, but will give the two of you the great money management task of improving your credit scores together.
Who's the Boss?
After years of individually managing your financial resources, you may be hesitant to turn over full control to your honey. Household money management is a two-person job made easier by technology such as online bill-payments.
Whether you both agree who is in charge of this task or just draw straws, the person who is not primarily responsible should still actively take steps to check out account balances and incoming bills so they can be part of the financial planning scenario.
What are Our Financial Plans?
Although today you may be happily and cozily sharing a studio apartment, you may dream of a different tomorrow. If you plan on being a starving artist until the bitter end or plan on committing to an 80-hour workweek to earn that golden ring, the two of you need to share your visions of the future so you can figure out a way to build it together.
Even with the best of intentions, sometimes money matters can get in the way of a great marriage and a happy future. But by taking the bull by the horns and discussing some of the biggest points of contention up front, you can really build a unified front and negotiate terms for your personalized approach to money management.
What do you do to make your marriage work financially?

Populous to Design Braves' Baseball Stadium in Atlanta
Kansas City-based architecture firm Populous has been selected as lead architect for the Atlanta Braves' baseball stadium in Cobb County.
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the Braves are currently in contract negotiations with the firm, which was selected over Dallas-based HKS for the job. The $672 million ballpark is scheduled to open in 2017 after the Braves' 20-year lease at Turner field expires.
As a prolific designer of Major League Baseball stadiums, with a portfolio containing 19 of the 30 MLB stadiums in use, the firm is known for retro-style ballparks such as the Oriole Park at Baltimore's Camden Yards. The Braves stadium will be open-air and will seat approximately 41,000 to 42,000 people, almost 10,000 fewer seats than Turner Field. Covering 15 acres of the 60-acre site, the stadium will make up part of a mixed-use development and green space. Populous might be involved in designing this prospective complex of shops, restaurants, bars, residences, and offices, but that decision will be announced once a developer is lined up.
Formerly known as HOK Sport, Populous will become the second Kansas City-based firm to design an Atlanta stadium, following 360 Architecture's design for the Falcons' retractable-roof stadium downtown. Most recently Populous led the design of the Target Field in Minneapolis, the Marlins Park in Miami, and stadiums in New York for the Yankees and the Mets. Populous also designed the current stadiums for the Pittsburgh Pirates, the San Diego Padres, St. Louis Cardinals, Colorado Rockies, and the San Francisco Giants, as well Fisht Olympic Stadium for the 2014 Winter Olympic games in Sochi, Russia.

Many reasons, actually.
It has something to do with the southern-inspired service: the sincere smiles, the first name familiarity, the complimentary bag of 'smores provided for the nightly bonfire.
It has something to do with the endless list of fun activities: hiking, biking, canoeing, fishing, and horseback riding, just to name a few.
And it has something to do with the clean and cozy accommodations that assure a comfortable night's sleep.
But we can't take all the credit. Mother Nature plays an important role as well, offering a canopy of stars and symphony of night songs to enhance campfire tales; providing acres of shady woodland alongside rivers and lakes of cool water for the ideal picnic and late-afternoon swim; delivering the perfect mix of tranquility and activity to reconnect with loved ones and cater to everyone's interests.
There's just something special about a family reunion or friendly get-together at one of our Lodge locations. Something that must be seen, must be experienced. One visit and you'll understand why so many people make a trip to The Lodges an annual tradition.
Give us a call. We'll help you determine the most appropriate Lodge location, and work to ensure that all your reunion needs are met.
Or, feel free to explore our Lodges on your own. We offer planning guides to help you select the ideal location, and plan the perfect get-together for your group.
