Review from first time cruisers with kids: Carnival Dream Cruise Review by jenninlaca
Overall Member Rating
Review from first time cruisers with kids
Destination: Eastern Caribbean
Embarkation: Port Canaveral (Orlando)
EMBARKATION: Very smooth, exceeded our expectations. We arrived in PC around 11:15 a.m. and had really no wait to get through security and get on the ship, everything seemed well organized. When we got on board we went straight to Gatherings and up to the pasta bar which was nearly empty at that time but later filled up. The pasta options were great but my food was really bland. I am not that into pasta so we never went back the rest of the week, but it was OK for the first meal. We went to our room around 1:45 and our bags arrive at about the same time.
NEW YEAR'S EVE: For anyone considering a NYE cruise, Carnival did offer free champagne all day (assuming you could find a server passing it out). I had a couple of classes in the Gathering during lunch. That evening there was a huge deck party and More NYE countdown, lots of dancing, DJ, etc., and free champagne. It was fun.
CABIN: I really liked our cabin (2357, Main Deck, Cove Balcony) I was impressed with the amount of closet space, although I wish there had been a few more drawers. The layout seemed great, even in a quad room. We had enough space. The only challenge was our toddler constantly grabbing everything down off of the shelf (toddlers.. what can you do??). Our older son LOVED the upper berth, he could not wait to sleep in it every night. Our toddler did well in the single sofa bed, which was pretty roomy.
Our King bed was extremely comfortable. I loved it and slept really well. So well that I am considering ordering the Carnival bedding that is available online. The bathroom had a lot of storage and the shower and water pressure exceeded my expectations.
Our cabin steward was wonderful, catered to everything we needed. I loved the turn down service and he replenished ice in the afternoon and evening.
We ordered 2 bottles of alcohol from Bon Voyage the day before the cruise, and they were there waiting for us. We also brought 2 bottles of wine on board. There is no corkscrew in the cabin, but we asked our steward to open the wine which he did.
When we first got to our room on embarkation day, our Cove Balcony had about an inch of water on it. I called guest services and within a few minutes our cabin steward appeared to clean it. He got his supervisor who checked it out. Apparently they had washed the balconies twice from the outside and too much water got in to the coves. The balcony next door also was very wet. This was resolved, but it happened again on the morning we docked in St. Thomas. Our cabin steward cleaned it up after we left the room, but we were not able to go on the balcony that morning before we left the ship. Some water appeared at the back of the balcony here and there on other days, but it was not a big deal.
SMELL: I definitely smelled the notorious smell. As reported by others, it is sulfur-like smell that seems to be concentrated around the hallways by the mid-ship elevators on Main Deck, which was right by our room. My older son (who has a keen sense of smell) commented several times about it (I did not tell anyone in my family in advance about the reports of smells). It was just a minor thing like when you walk by, like getting a whiff of a sewer-smell on the street once in awhile. A few times it was very strong. Other times I walked through the same area and did not really notice it at all. I never smelled anything in our room or elsewhere on the ship. Overall this was not a big deal and I probably would not have thought much of it if I had not heard so much about it on this Board.
CROWD: Seemed like a good mix of people. A lot of families and in particular a lot of kids ages 6-12, as well as a good number of young adults in the singles crowd. There were a few kids who at times seemed to be running around the ship with no supervision, but it was not a big issue that I observed. A pretty normal and well-behaved crowd. Anecdotally it seemed as though 75% of the passengers were Canadian, and the Cruise Director even commented on that one day.
FOOD: Overall the food was good, not great. We had anytime dining and ate in Crimson (upper level). Margarita was our server the first few nights. She was very nice and paid special attention to our kids. Because the first night of our cruise was New Year's Eve they switched the menu to the typical Night 2 menu. We had the shrimp and lobster which was good. We ordered a third one to share (it took awhile to get the 3rd one so we almost regretted the order). The pumpkin soup and the crab soups were very good. Overall the soups on the ship were excellent and I am a big soup person so that made me happy. On Day 2 (the normal Night 1 menu) I was not that excited about the offerings. We got the sweet and sour shrimp. The shrimp was pretty good but the noodles that came with it were awful. Tasteless and a bad texture. I recommend avoiding them. Night #3 we got the french onion soup (very good), the sushi (decent) and I had the short ribs which I really liked, including the eggplant and fried rice. It was a huge portion of food, I did not come close to finishing it. My husband got the flat iron steak which was good, but it came a bit too rare and not warm enough. My husband's entrees frequently were served lukewarm. I had better luck with temperature. A few of the entrees/meals did not feel that special... I would note that you could get some of the same meal upstairs at the buffet and spend a lot less time waiting. Knowing that some of the entrees were just the buffet food took a little bit away from the "fine dining" feel for me. So the food definitely was not 5-star (nor did I expect it to be) but for the most part it was good and I did not have any major complaints.
One big standout in terms of the menu was the Fatoush salad on the last night - absolutely delicious, one of the best salads I have ever had. I wish that was a nightly option! The vegetarian Indian option also was very tasty (available every night).
In terms of desserts, we loved the Chocolate Melting Cake, although the consistency was very ... inconsistent. Sometimes it was extremely melty, and other times more like cake. In-between was the best. I ordered it with extra ice cream. But the Baked Alaska and the Cappucino Pie were big disappointments. I had been looking forward to both and I found both to be basically tasteless, a total waste of calories. They looked good, just no taste. Same for the vanilla creme brulee on night 3... very disappointing. Pretty tasteless and the sugar shell was too hard. There was one (!?) berry on top.
Our kids ate with us in the MDR every night (not by our choice, but it worked out). They managed to handle it fine. There was an amazing server on one side named Orlando who came over and did magic tricks for the boys on two nights. They could not stop talking about that. I ended up wishing that we had been in his section every night. But we never had any problem with the service other than sometimes it was a bit slow and on one side of the MDR (Orlando's side) it was more difficult to get alcoholic drinks. On the other side (Margarita's side) they were ready with your next round the minute you were finished.
Generally our experience with MTD was very good. Only one night - Night 2 - did we have to wait. We arrived just before 7 and for whatever reason they seemed to be really backed up and we ended up waiting 40 minutes for our table. Not ideal, obviously, but we just dealt with it. Then when we arrived back at our cabin after dinner there was a delivery of some special little desserts and a note from the MTD manager apologizing for the wait. Very classy. We had not complained or said anything about the wait, but obviously they were aware of how long it had been (and we were not the only ones who waited that long). We never waited any other night. I would absolutely do MTD again.
We were really looking forward to the Chef's Table on Night 3 but we had to cancel it (24 hours in advance to avoid a $25 pp charge) because our youngest son was generally refusing to spend more than 15 minutes in Camp Carnival without one of us being there (more on that below). We did not think we would make it through even half of the Chef's Table experience without getting the dreaded cell phone call from Camp, so we cancelled. I was really disappointed not to get to experience this, and I hope to do so on a future cruise. Same story with our Steakhouse reservations on the last night. I know that we theoretically could have taken the kids to the Steakhouse but we decided not to for several reasons.
We had one MDR lunch (in Scarlet). It was a nice lunch, although I was not feeling that well because it was the day after the roughest night of the cruise (tons of rocking and up/down motion, very windy). It was still windy and high waves and Scarlet is at the back of the ship so you could really feel the movement. Food was very good. My only problem with the meal was that we wanted to order dessert and by the time I asked to order they said the kitchen was closed (I think it was right at 2). I wished they had come around and told us "last call to order dessert".
Breakfast: We got room service once and were very disappointed. It came on time (breakfast), but obviously the menu is limited and the croissants were almost rock hard, really not edible. Actually the croissants in the buffet were about the same most of the cruise - very stale. We also found it to be more trouble than it was worth to try to feed the kids in the room with no good place for them to eat. We ate breakfast at Scarlet twice and it was very good with nice service. I wish we had done that more often.
Buffet: The Gathering was decent. Nothing really standout other than the Tandoori. I wanted to go back and get that on the last day but unfortunately the entire upper aft portion of the ship was closed for most of the last sea day because there were TWO different medical evacs and they had to clear the whole area. There was never much wait for the burger bar and that was pretty good. The Mongolian Wok always had a good line. It was pretty good, I got it twice, but probably not worth more than a 10 minute wait. The chocolate buffet was good, although nothing was a big standout. We found the service very good at the buffet and usually had no problem getting a table.
CAMP CARNIVAL: Sorry to say that we did not have a positive experience with Camp Carnival. The biggest issue was that our youngest child (2.5) just refused to attend. He just hated it. I do not blame this on Camp Carnival necessarily, because toddlers are unpredictable. We dropped him off at the New Year's Eve party on the first night, which in retrospect was a mistake. They called us within 30-40 minutes saying that he had been crying nonstop. Part of the problem was that he wanted to be with his brother, who was in the 6-8 group and obviously he could not be in that bigger group.
They have a good space for the kids, but we did not find the counselors to be particularly helpful or friendly (there were a few exceptions). For the most part the counselors were very curt and unfriendly, a few were actually bordering on rude. Not a welcoming atmosphere in general from what we experienced. The check in/check out also was ridiculous the first few days. They only had 1 person at any given time handling this activity and so whether you were checking or checking out you had to wait in the same (long) line, which included parents at the front who would be asking a ton of informational type questions. Of course parents have questions, but it is a problem when there is only one line for everything. Many parents were grumbling in line waiting 15 minutes to pick up their child. I also heard other parents comment that they were not at all impressed with the staff. When we dropped off my 6 year old the counselor typically just said "ok, go wash your hands"... no "hi", "welcome", "glad you are back" or anything like that. It just was not quite what we expected. I had expected my older son to really love Camp Carnival but he really wasn't into it. He would have stayed and participated if my little one had done it, but since we had to keep the little one with us we all just stayed together as a family.
Other than Camp Carnival, we found the rest of the staff on the Dream to be excellent.
POOLS / SLIDES: It was extremely difficult to get a deck chair on sea days. Chair hogging was completely out of control. Every single chair would have a towel on it (empty, of course) by 8:45 a.m. or so on sea days. I went up every day around that time to survey the situation. Of course very few people showed up to occupy those chairs until much later in the day. I don't blame Carnival for this, I blame rude guests. Absolutely ridiculous to expect to keep a chair saved for you the entire morning until you decide to show up after lunch. But so many people did it. I did move a towel or book a couple of times after I had been there for at least an hour and was certain that nobody owning that chair was anywhere to be found and someone else was looking for a chair.
Due to my toddler not being in Camp, we were not able to use the pools, although most people did not seem to get in because the water was quite cold. Speaking of, I tried one time to get in the hot tubs on Ocean Plaza one evening and they were COLD (well, certainly not warm or hot). That was really disappointing to me, as we were looking forward to experiencing the hot tubs and spending time in there.
My older son really enjoyed the water slides - they were a blast for him. My toddler enjoyed the baby slide area. I specifically checked with a Carnival employee on the first day to make sure that my son - who is still in a swim diaper - could use that baby slide and was told yes. Many other swim diaper babies used it too, even though the stated height was 36" (the height limit on the bigger slides seemed to be enforced). BUT one day during the week an employee was telling parents that their kids in swim diapers could not use the baby slide. That was strange and inconsistent, but it did not impact us directly. I was very grateful for this slide because it was one of the only things that our toddler could really do on board outside of Camp Carnival.
SHOWS: We went to Dancing in the Streets which all of us enjoyed, including the kids. For a cruise ship it exceeded my expectations. We tried the hypnotist show which I found really silly but my older son actually liked it. One of the major production shows, I cannot recall the name of it but I think it had a country/western theme, had to be cancelled due to some technical difficulty. We also attended the Legends show on the last night which was really cheesy (of course) but was a hoot. In one of my (very few) moments of adult time during the cruise I had seen a few of the auditions for the show so it was fun to see how those people did when the actually performed. It was obvious that some had perfected their routine in hopes of making the Legends show. Funny. I loved the Burgundy Lounge where they held the auditions. Unfortunately that was the only time I got to set foot in the place the whole cruise. I would have liked to spend more time there. Beautiful atmosphere.
We expected to need to get seats for the shows at least 30-40 minutes early and even for Dancing in the Streets we did not find that to be the case. For the late shows there were plenty of seats up until just before showtime. We sat in the balcony for DITS and had a good view.
SPA: The Cloud 9 Spa was really beautiful. Shortly after boarding I went there and got a weekly pass ($150). I had planned on spending a lot of blissful relaxation time in the thessalotherapy pool and the steam rooms. But given that our toddler refused to go to Camp Carnival, I only had precious moments here and there to actually use my pass (thanks to my husband who watched the kids - in exchange I watched the kids at night and he went to the casino). If I had known that I would not have paid so much to get a weekly pass. But if you don't have the kid factor to worry about I think the weekly pass is worth it. The steam rooms are fantastic and there are two solariums to relax with heated chairs. Loved the thessalotherapy pool and the workout rooms. Nice locker rooms as well. One day they had to close the pool because of high waves and winds and the water was just sloshing all over the place. The Spa is all the way forward and very high on the ship, so that is probably where you feel the most motion. The ship always felt very rocky up there.
On the last sea day I got a hair color and cut package. When I signed up I thought it was $149 but they only charged me $99 which was a great deal because stylist spent 2.5 hours with me and she cut and highlighted my hair and gave me a deep conditioning treatment. Money well spent and I gave a large tip!
PORT EXCURSIONS: Nassau was New Year's Day and everyone was exhausted so we slept in and made no plans for any excursions. The Dream is only in Nassau from 8 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. (have to be on board by 1:30) so if you do not get up early and go you cannot really do much here. That was fine with us. We got off and looked at the other ships and we were herded through the straw market briefly... not too impressed, so we wandered back and just enjoyed the ship.
In St. Thomas we had booked a sailing excursion with Morningstar Charters to take us over to St. John and go snorkeling. This has come highly recommended on the St. Thomas message boards and it did not disappoint. We had purchased this directly from Morningstar for $135 per adult as a holiday gift to each other and had been planning on leaving the kids in Camp Carnival while we went. Obviously that did not end up being an option. Not knowing whether we could take the kids on the sailboat (either due to age or whether there was room), we decided to just take the taxi that they had pre-arranged for us and go to the place and see what they could do. The backup plan was for my husband to take our toddler, and both kids if necessary, to a local beach. It turned out that we were the only ones who had booked the sailboat that day (the capacity is only 6 plus 2 crew) so they gladly took the whole family, assuring us that they had young children on board before and it was fine. Sure enough the waves lulled my toddler to sleep on the way over and back from St. John. We had a really cute and friendly captain, Mike, and his girlfriend, Bridget, as our private crew. Bridget is a bartender on St. John so she made some great drinks and while we were anchored for snorkeling they cooked up a delicious grilled lunch. It was amazing what they were able to book on that little boat. It was one of the best meals of the trip. A really relaxing beautiful day. The taxi ride over from the port was about 20-25 minutes with some good views of the island. Then we walked down some steep stairs to the water edge and met Mike who took us in a dinghy out to the boat. After a safety briefing (kids have to wear life jackets) the ride over to St. John was about 60-75 minutes. We anchored in a great spot and had plenty of time to swim and snorkel, with all equipment provided. Mike taught Adrian to snorkel and let him "drive" the boat for a bit. He even took video underwater and emailed it to us. It was a really nice day and I would recommend Morningstar to anyone including people with young kids. The excursion was about 5 hours. The Dream is in port until 8 p.m. in St. Thomas so you have plenty of time to get back. Taxi going back was arranged. Taxi was $10 pp each way, so plan on bringing enough cash for that.
In St. Maarten we attempted to take a taxi to Le Galion (French side) because we had heard that this was an excellent place for kids with low waves. We got in the cab with another couple and told them where we wanted to go. After about 20-25 minutes of driving we were nearly there and we asked the driver where we could get cabs to get back to port. The driver was very unfriendly and she told us that we would likely not be able to get a cab there because cabs don't generally go there. We asked if she could come back and pick us up at a specified time and she said that she might have other fares and could not commit. Obviously not wanting to be stranded there we quickly change plans and got dropped of at the (fortunately) nearby Orient Beach. We paid our annoyed cab driver a bit extra for the drop off at Orient. Not a good cab experience, but Orient Beach was quite nice, although very crowded. There were several large ships in port that day including Oasis OTS, Navigator OTS and the Dream, so crowds were to be expected and we were far from early. But a very friendly attendant took care of us and for $10 (total) we got two nice beach chairs in front and bathroom passes. We had some delicious shrimp from a beachfront place - amazing. There were tons of cabs waiting there to take people back to port so getting back was no problem. I had some time to shop around the area adjacent to the port before getting back on board. We did notice the enormous line to reboard Oasis of the Seas. Not sure if there had been a problem, but it was just a huge line. We never waited to reboard the Dream. The Dream ended up leaving more than 30 minutes late because of some late passengers. I can only assume that they were on Carnival excursions and something had gone very wrong. There were 5-6 of them and they golf-carted them to gangplank from the security area. Good view of this from my Cove Balcony!
DEBARKATION: Self assist may have been OK, but the regular debarkation was a nightmare! We waited until many zones had been called because we were not in a hurry, but when we got down to Deck 3 we found huge lines, people were everywhere and the lines were snaking through and around the lobby area and into the terminal. We really lucked out because we had a stroller so once we got off the gangway they whisked us down the elevator and into a special line. We did not request that, but from the looks of things it saved us 25-30 minutes. I don't know if it there had been some kind of customs issue that day, but people did not seem happy and it definitely was not the orderly rapid debarkation that I had read in other reviews. We had a very helpful porter help us with our stuff and we took a Mears shuttle back to the airport. We just bought our tickets when we boarded, you do not have to pre-arrange that. I think it was $35 per person and they did not charge for our 2.5 year old. There are many buses and they just fill them as people get off the ship.
OVERALL: We had a good family trip overall. We booked the cruise specifically because of Camp Carnival taking 2 year olds and in anticipation of having some adult time which we rarely get (on vacation or otherwise). I was particularly looking forward to the Chef's Table and the Steakhouse, both of which we had to cancel due to the lack of viable childcare options.
We were really happy to have a balcony, particularly with the kids sleeping and we were able to go sit out there at night. A couple of nights we could see other cruise ships fairly close by (NCL Epic passed right by us one night).
Knowing everything, if I had to do it over again I may not have booked the cruise at all. But we had a good time and it was an introduction to cruising that has whet my appetite for more (when my little one is a bit older and less clingy). The Dream was a beautiful ship. Less

Seventeen Copperas Cove High School students were inducted into the new Excel Club of Copperas Cove during an installation ceremony at its first official meeting March 7.
Mike Blount, past president of the Noon Exchange Club, began the meeting by introducing Earnest Remedies, the district volunteer field representative. Remedies read a welcome letter signed by members of the national foundation.
"The club was first organized in Detroit Michigan by business leaders who came together to exchange ideas and work to make communities better," Remedies said about the club's history. "The benefits of joining are to develop leadership skills, to enjoy new friendships and to help build a better America."
The Excel Club's role and responsibility involves members attending meetings, sharing talents and helping others in their school and community, Remedies said.
The charter members were pinned by Blount and Barbara Considine, a faculty advisor.
Dennis Ayres, president of the Noon Exchange Club and Excel Club builder, said the club's goals mirrors the National Exchange Club goals of promoting patriotism, creating awareness for the prevention of child abuse, and volunteerism.
Locally, the Excel Club will work with its sponsor, the Noon Exchange Club, to complete various projects including the city's Feast of Sharing, the Quad City Ride for a Child fundraiser and the Noon Exchange Club's Volksmarch for Awareness and Prevention of Child Abuse.
They will also participate in cleanup projects at the Exchange Sunshine Home during Make a Difference Day.
The club also will develop their own fundraising events as determined through meetings and decisions made by its board of directors.
The CCHS Excel Club banner, bell and gavel will be given to the student club during the charter banquet in April, when the Exchange Club charter awards will be presented.
Club officers also will be inducted during the banquet and bylaws will be approved at a later date.
Charter members
The charter members of the Excel Club are Elijah Santos, Lily Drever, Emily Drever, Chevonne Charmont, Niomi Charmont, Chris Hastings, Selena Romero, Destiny Frank, Jeremiah Rest, Carlee Duran, Amanda Arrisala, Kamryn Mayberry, Nathan Posey, Mackensi Holt, Anthony May, Isaac Griffin, and Makara Stofferahn.
The next Excel meeting will be determined by the club president, faculty advisers and Noon Exchange Club advisers.

Baseball Weekly cover report - World Series: Giants
Going back to his roots
By Paul White, USA TODAY Baseball Weekly
adjusts to city life
1 Recap
2 Recap
ANAHEIM, Calif. J.T. Snow maneuvered toward the
dugout. He moved smoothly, like someone who belongs right there and nowhere
else. Suddenly he was seated. Then he was back up. And just as quickly he had
moved on, his mission accomplished.
It could have been last week. It could have been 1985.
Just depends which side of the Anaheim Stadium dugout you're talking about.
"When I was old enough to drive," the San Francisco Giants'
first baseman says, "I would come with my buddies. We would buy the cheap seats
and sneak down by the dugout. The ushers would chase us, and we'd keep dodging
them and moving around."
The native of nearby Long Beach was back in town last weekend
for the first two games of the World Series, but there was no sneaking down
from the cheap seats. First of all, there are no cheap seats at the Fall Classic.
But anyone close to the Giants' dugout on the first base side would get an up-close
view of Snow's current moves.
In Game 1, with one out in the bottom of the fifth, runners
on first and third and the Giants clinging to a one-run lead, Anaheim's Tim
Salmon popped up the ball near the Angels' dugout. Snow glided over with the
smoothness of a six-time Gold Glove winner. As he settled into position for
the catch, he slipped on the rubbery surface between the grass and the dugout,
and landed on his derriere. Never taking his eye off the ball, he grabbed the
netting in front of the dugout to pull himself up, then made the catch.
How fitting that it was Salmon who hit the pop where he
and Snow began their quest to reach baseball's pinnacle.
Snow and Salmon were a couple of rookies approaching their
25th birthdays when they trekked to the top of a modest mountain not far from
Anaheim for a 1993 national magazine photo shoot.
"It was a big deal for two rookies," Salmon says. "We were
the guys. This was going to be awesome."
These days, they stand side by side only when Salmon reaches
first base in the World Series. Only now, nearly a decade later, one of them
finally is going to reach baseball's mountaintop.
The two players around whom the Angels seemed destined
to build their future have taken turns winning the first two games of this year's
Series, each with a decisive two-run home run. While Salmon still wears yet
another incarnation of the Angels' red and white uniform, Snow returned to his
boyhood and early professional home in the San Francisco Giants' orange and
This return is far less triumphant for Snow than the one
in 1993, right after his hometown team had acquired him from the Yankees' organization.
He and Salmon, the Angels' prize prospect, were seen as the keys to revitalizing
a franchise that hadn't finished above .500 in seven seasons and had never been
to the World Series since coming into existence in 1961. Snow was the fair-haired
Orange County kid and the son of a local legend, former Los Angeles Rams receiver
Jack Snow.
The Rams still played their home games in Anaheim, back
when the stadium had 70,000 seats. That's the ballpark Snow first recalls as
a kid, going there a couple of times a week with the family as an 11-year-old
in 1979, watching as a teenager in 1985 when Rod Carew collected his 3,000th
"I grew up in Seal Beach, about 20 minutes from here, went
to Los Alamitos High School," Snow says. "Dad used to take me to ballgames.
In '79, we really got into it with the team they had."
That was the Angels' first division winner, a team led
by Nolan Ryan, Don Baylor, Carney Lansford and Brian Downing. By the time Snow
returned as a player, the franchise owned three AL West championships but not
one playoff series victory.
"We had a lot of young guys in '93 and '94," Snow says.
"Looking back, you rarely see teams that have two rookies starting."
Almost on schedule, the Angels became a force in 1995,
jumping out to a huge lead in the American League West. But they found a way
to disappoint and be disappointed much like their predecessors. They blew a
double-digit lead over the final month and a half, and lost a one-game playoff
to the Seattle Mariners. When they tumbled to 21 games under .500 the next season,
changes were in order. And one of the victims was local favorite Snow.
Though he was two years into a streak of six consecutive
Gold Gloves, his offensive production had fallen like the team's fortunes. His
1996 batting average fell 32 points to .257, his RBI total from 102 to 67.
Snow was designated a symbol for the team's tumble and
was traded to San Francisco.
Snow now shrugs that off as part of the game, the same
way he stoically discusses losing his starting job with the Giants at the end
of the 2001 season and again for a short time this year. He maintains there
is no revenge factor in this World Series against the team that shunned him.
"They've changed uniforms a couple of times," Snow says.
"It's still the same location, still in Anaheim, still the Angels, but the only
thing that's the same is trying to get here and getting caught in the traffic.
I took the same freeway, the same off ramp, came into the parking lot the same
He did find fans in the parking lot yelling, "Welcome back,
J.T." but Anaheim isn't home any more.
"I don't have any immediate family here now," he says.
When he left in 1996, immediate family wasn't high on his
list of priorities. He hadn't spoken to his parents in two years in a rift that
he won't discuss. But longtime Angels employees remember Jack Snow standing
in the back of the press box being hypercritical when J.T. failed on the field.
Jack had become a broadcaster, and when the Rams moved to St. Louis, he went
with them.
As J.T. began his first spring training with his new team,
his world was hardly idyllic. He had firsthand knowledge of the cold business
side of sports. He was estranged from his parents but had learned his mother
had been diagnosed with cancer. Then, on March 11, 1997, a 100-mph Randy Johnson
fastball crashed into his wrist and ricocheted into his left eye.
The orbital bone was fractured. Doctors worried about long-term
effects such as glaucoma and cataracts. Baseball people worried about the psychological
effects of trying to stand in the batter's box again.
J.T. called home.
His injury was minor compared to the increasingly troublesome
battle his mother was waging. To this day, he's never said much more about the
family split other than stubborn wills were involved.
But he chose to mend the fences with his parents, something
he became increasingly grateful he did as his mother eventually lost her battle
in 1998. Maybe it was mere coincidence, but J.T.'s eye mended quickly, too.
He was in the Opening Day lineup. His career mended as well. He turned the trade
into a steal by hitting 28 homers and driving in 104 runs in 1997, both career
J.T. is much closer these days to his dad, who never got
the opportunity his son is experiencing to play for a championship. They
spent time together in St. Louis when the Giants won the first two games of
the National League Championship Series. The mood was nothing but encouraging.
Callers to Jack's radio show were asking whom Dad was rooting
for. He would laugh and say, "Of course, I'm rooting for my son."
"I think it just kind of shows you what kind of people
call in sometimes to talk shows," J.T. says. "They might not be the brightest
people. He was kind of stunned they would even ask that question."
Father and son talked about an experience that might never
come again.
"He realizes that I do appreciate this," J.T. says. "He
never got this chance. He just tells me to enjoy it, go out and play hard. But
he would say the same thing if it was a spring training game. He's been very
nervous watching me. In the Braves series he had to leave the house and go out
in the garage."
J.T. has wondered more than once over the past season and
a half if he was going to have to leave again. The first time was last season,
when the Giants acquired veteran Andres Galarraga for the stretch drive.
Snow was struggling through what would become the first
of two consecutive .246 seasons. He said all the right things, about how he
understood that if he had been performing better the move probably wouldn't
have been made.
But he couldn't help but be aware some of the Giants' fans
were down on him. When Galarraga came in with an immediate offensive flourish,
Snow became increasingly curt with a local media that was openly embracing the
Galarraga wasn't re-signed for this season so the first
base job was Snow's again, but it was hardly permanent. By early June, he was
on the bench in favor of powerful rookie Damon Minor. Both are lefties, though
Minor certainly isn't in Snow's defensive class. But Snow makes $5.9 million
in a contract that runs through next season with a club option for 2004. Minor's
salary is $203,000. The Giants have limited room to maneuver with their payroll
and were getting limited production from a couple of lineup spots.
Snow certainly is savvy enough about the business of baseball
to sort through the possibilities. He openly wondered if he might be traded
but also understood the combination of his offensive and salary numbers weren't
conducive to attracting much interest.
He accepted his demotion but insisted he would stand up
and be counted again when given the chance.
"It's tough to work yourself into that," he says. "When
you know you're playing, you have a different mind-set. I wasn't hitting the
ball that badly, but I wasn't getting hits. It was their decision to play somebody
"I know what kind of player I am. I know what I can do."
Manager Dusty Baker was insistent the change at first base
wasn't permanent. Minor was out of options and stuck on the roster anyway. The
Giants were getting little power production beyond Barry Bonds and Reggie Sanders
at the time. They had to try something.
"In J.T.'s case," Baker says, "you just have to remain
positive through it all because, if not, then you don't have a chance."
Snow gave himself a chance.
"I kept preparing myself to do the things I've always done,"
he says. "I just sat there and waited my turn. I sat down and watched all my
at-bats on tape. I had a tough stretch of 90 at-bats."
He must have counted them. The worst portion of Snow's
season was exactly 90 at-bats, from May 9 to June 21, when he got all of nine
"I have to keep believing in myself when others don't,"
he says. "I take a bit of pride in our success when I was in the lineup. I think
there's a lot more that goes into the game than a lot of people care to take
the time to think about. I'm proud about the way I played at the end of the
Indeed, there seems to be something about Snow's presence
in the lineup. The Giants were 70-41 when he started, compared with 25-25 when
anyone else was the first baseman. Much of that record was accumulated late
in the season, when Snow was part of an everyday starting eight that took command
of the NL wild-card race.
Snow has steadily cranked up his production. He hit .267
over the second half of the season, .300 over his final 13 games and .304 with
two homers and nine RBI over his first 12 postseason games.
"I think it's a matter of being in the lineup every day
and knowing you're going to play," he says, addressing wave after wave of reporters.
"Funny, nobody wanted to talk to me a couple of months ago."
Finally in that first World Series, Snow nearly didn't
get the chance to be a hero. His sixth-inning homer in Game 1 was preceded an
inning earlier by his popup adventure.
"The last thing you expect is to end up on your backside,"
he says. "That's bad. Hopefully someone doesn't get hurt in this series. That's
not up to major league standards in my mind."
The problem, Snow says, is a worn surface on the warning
track in front of the dugouts.
"It feels like cement or tile," he says. "There's no grip
to it. It needs to be replaced. Maybe it was too expensive."
As Snow was explaining the situation to reporters, teammate
Tom Goodwin at the next locker latched onto the last comment. "Oooh, you heard
him," Goodwin says, laughing. "He said the Angels are cheap."
Snow just chuckled. He's not taking the bait. He's enjoying
the World Series. He's enjoying Anaheim again. He's having more fun in the stadium
reconfigured for baseball only since the Rams left.
"It makes for a fun atmosphere," he says. "It's pretty
much a different place. We didn't have any Rally Monkey. When I played here,
there might have been that many people but it felt empty."
It's full now, but J.T. Snow doesn't have to worry about
finding a way to be right on top of the action.

Shopping for new carpet can be overwhelming. Get the facts on everything from carpet types to carpet fiber and choose the best carpet for your home.
Before you shop for new carpet, create a set of expectations for yourself to ease the buying process.
Cut pile fiber ends are cut evenly. There are several types of cut pile:
Loop pile yarns are looped and fastened to the backing. These are very durable carpets and usually a good choice for high-traffic areas. There are two types of loop pile carpeting:
Cut and Loop or Pattern offers a combination of the above, allowing more options of textures and patterns. Cut and loop achieves a sculptured pattern with varied levels of uncut low loops and sheared top loops. The pattern looks as if it's been cut into the carpet and usually features several tones from the same color family. The change in color helps disguise wear and soiling. Cut and loop doesn't necessarily hold up as well as loop pile, but is considerably softer.
When using weight to compare carpets, make sure you're comparing similar materials, like nylon to nylon, not nylon to polyester.
Carpet fibers are made from either natural materials, like wool, or synthetic materials, like nylon, olefin, acrylic and polyester. Each material brings unique characteristics to carpet.
Carpet is available with stain-resistant fibers and finishes that are ideal for high-traffic homes and pet owners. Treatments are supplemental to the natural resistance of your carpet fibers. The most effective treatments are integrated as part of the manufacturing process.
Although it's not visible, carpet padding - or the cushioning layer - is critical to carpet installation. The proper backing cushions the foot, insulates from cold and noise and increases the life of the carpet. However, thicker is not always better. A less cushiony floor may be preferable to those whose steps may be a bit unstable at times. When foot testing a carpet, test it with a padding sample underneath.
Follow the manufacturer's guidelines for which padding to choose, as different kinds of carpet require different padding.
Glue-down or peel-and-stick carpet tiles are a good do-it-yourself flooring option. The adhesive system keeps the carpet in place and eliminates curling. And, since the tiles are all-in-one, a separate carpet padding purchase isn't necessary.
Proper care extends the life of every carpet. Vacuum often, rearrange furniture regularly to avoid traffic paths and close curtains / blinds during peak daylight hours to avoid exposure to direct sunlight.
Yearly professional cleaning is recommended - even if you clean the carpet yourself in between.

Carnival Freedom: Carnival Freedom Cruise Review by Aidansmommy2
Overall Member Rating
Carnival Freedom
Destination: Western Caribbean
Embarkation: Miami
Embarkation: We arrived at noontime so we were sent right in to the new Miami terminal for check-in. We were taken care of immediately and once checked in, only had to wait about 10 minutes for our number to be called to board. Simplicity and a grade of A.
Cabin: We were in a Cat. 8C Balcony on Empress deck. Typical Carnival cabin with enough space for the 3 of us. Our cabin steward Jorge was very friendly and efficient. Our room was always clean and ready for us no matter when we returned to it. No complaints here. A+.
Tours: We did 2 tours through Carnival. One was a Pirate Adventure on Grand Cayman which we did solely for our 3yr old son. It was a bit cheesy and suffice it to say would not recommend it unless you have young children. The More other tour we took was the Playa Mia Deluxe Beach tour in Cozumel. It was a nice place and very clean too. It has a pool as well as the beach and various water sport "toys" that we were able to use at no charge with our package. Lunch, which was traditional mexican and very good, was included as was open bar. It was a nice place if your looking to do a beach, but I think you can probably go cheaper if you book it yourself. Tours get a C.
Entertainment: The shows were very good but the "Ticket to Ride" show was absolutely fabulous! We enjoyed that one the best. They also had a talent show which my husband participated in and had a great time doing so. The "legends" show was pretty sad, they really need to do away with that piece of garbage in my opinion. The only other show we saw was a comedian whose name escapes me, Eddy Capone maybe? Something Italian anyway. He was ok, but nothing to write home about either. I'd give the entertainment shipwide a C+.
Service and Food: The service was very good and we really didn't have any complaints in that department. Our dining room servers, Robert and Irena were competent and friendly, but didn't go out of their way to make dinner anything spectacular. As mentioned before, our cabin steward Jorge was very good and took wonderful care of us. Now on to the food...Blah, with a capital B pretty much covers it!! I've been on a lot of cruises and have eaten a lot of cruise food and i'd have to say the food on Freedom was about the worst i've ever had and my DH concurred. It was as tasteless as an old shoe and about as appealing too. The pizza was divine as usual though and was a saving grace when all else failed. We did the Sun King supper club one night and it was well worth the $60 for the 2 of us. The food there was superb and we enjoyed every bit of it! If only the food on the rest of the ship had been even one half as good we would have been happier overall. My DH did enjoy the duck in the dining room on the first formal night, so if you like duck that is about the only thing I can recommend as far as the dining room goes. Desserts were equally as bad, tasteless and blah! The cookies at the Coffeshop (on deck 5) were delicious though and well worth the buck. My DH also enjoyed the cappuccino (sp?) too. Can't give the food any better than a D-.
Camp Carnival: Our 3yr old DS loved CC. The girls working there are absolute gems and are wonderful with the kids. They do so many activities with them there is no chance of the kids getting bored. The latenight babysitting service (after 10 p.m) is well worth the $6/hour. We also left a tip for the girls at the end of the week since they do not get a cut of the gratuities that are added to your sign and sail card. We love Camp Carnival and give them a solid A+.
We also each used the spa once and would give them a grade of A for the therapists and treatments but they are much more pricey then you would pay for a landbased spa treatment so C for price. Wait for the daily specials, you'll save some $$$.
Debarkation: They have implemented a new debarkation system and it moves so much quicker and is much less crazy then the old system. They did have a problem with the customs computers in the terminal which slowed things down for a bit, but even with the glitch we were off the ship and in line at customs by 9:30 am. Luggage is now on a carousel like at the airport and is sooooo much easier to find. This new system gets an A+.
Overall we had a wonderful cruise and will probably sail Carnival again sometime in the future. We give this cruise a B+ overall. Freedom is a great ship and other than the terrible food, we highly enjoyed it and would recommend it.

One July morning as I was on the treadmill, I took a double-look at the television on the wall in the exercise room. I thought I recognized someone on the screen. A person from our industry was on a national news channel. And he was standing near the President of the United States.
I first met David Rosenberg, president and CEO of Hycrete Inc., several years ago at a Strategic Development Council (SDC) meeting in St. Louis. SDC is an ACI group that meets twice a year. Its primary goal is to create a setting at which key corporate leaders meet to help push through innovations. Our hope is to reduce the time of implementation from 13 years to something less than four years through partnering.
I believe St. Louis was Rosenberg's first meeting. I heard him offer his vision of how to change the concrete construction industry several times. His goal was to convince people to view concrete as an environmentally friendly material. And he expressed this just before the current surge of interest in LEED and green building.
Talk about a committed person. So I wasn't too surprised when I saw him on television with a group of eight CEOs of clean technology-focused companies invited to participate in a roundtable hosted by President Barack Obama. The group discussed the economic impact of green technologies.
The leaders opened the discussion with examples of how their firms are contributing to innovation and economic growth in hard economic times. They suggested steps the federal government can take to help adopt new technologies, create jobs, and establish U.S. leadership in CleanTech, a new initiative the White House is pushing.
After the meeting, Obama gave a brief press conference during which he called the participating firms "some of the most innovative energy companies in America." I was encouraged when he said these industries represent "a big piece of America's economic future."
And then the leader of the free world mentioned us: "When you hear the innovation that's taking place … [including] new concrete materials that last longer and are waterproofed from the inside out, and that can mean that bridges and roads and buildings can last 20 or 30 years longer than using conventional concrete, that gets you excited."
I realize that our report in this issue on the state of the industry offers a less-than stellar picture. It highlights how we are facing challenging economic times. But with folks like Rosenberg, we have an opportunity for growth and impact never seen before.
Our firms will return to the market lean, prepared, and refreshed. We will offer products with an environmental message the design community is finally listening to. And just as important, the nation needs us.
Rosenberg offered a great vision that day, saying, "We are proud of our efforts to bring value to the economy and to help increase federal stimulus impact by reducing building and maintenance costs and accelerating construction schedules for public projects."
Knowing Rosenberg as I do, I know he was referring to our industry's collective effort. This spirit of change and forward thinking will be the catalyst for the quick return of our industry's success.

Editor's note: This the second part of El Dorado Hills hiker Shawn Burton's journal as he hiked the Tahoe Rim Trail last month.
Oct. 11
Ninety-eight miles complete, 69 miles to go. Day 8 was a relatively easier day compared to others since we only hiked 11 miles and ascended 1,500 feet. Although, if I do the math for the remaining six days, we only need to hike 11.5 miles per day so hopefully the faster pace I had in the first week will mean a more leisurely pace the second week. This shorter distance allowed us to take more breaks and more pictures so I appreciated that the day didn't feel as rushed. We started the day at Round Lake and within 2 miles we were on the Pacific Crest Trail overlooking a huge meadow with brilliant mountains in the background. In fact, this day was filled with several meadows and lakes along the way including Benwood Meadows, Meisse Lake and Showers Lake. Right after we passed Showers Lake, we came across a detour to a mini peak that had amazing views of South Lake Tahoe and Lake Tahoe. We decided to eat lunch there and soak up the sun. Right now we are staying in a forested area just outside Benwood Meadows and are enjoying a second campfire to help us stay warm since the temperature at night is dipping into the 20s. This area of the TRT allows campfires but the remaining six days campfires are restricted ; I'm going to miss the warmth of a fire. On Sunday, Jeff and I will walk 1.5 miles to Echo Summit on Highway 50 where we will meet my brother Jon and continue our journey which will move into Desolation Wilderness.
Oct. 12
Day 9 started out with a bang. At 4:30 a.m. it started to snow. I immediately turned on my iPhone to see if there was any update on the weather and weather.com said 0 percent chance of snow. Thanks Mr. Weather Man. We all know mountain weather is unpredictable. I wasn't as concerned for me since all my gear is four-season including my bivy. However, Jeff's gear was three-season so when the Campmor bivy he had bragged only cost him $9 collapsed, I knew this wasn't going to be fun. What's worse than being in a snowstorm? Having to go to the bathroom in a snowstorm. I just tried to look at the bright side of things as the snowflakes hit my bare butt and considered it a "nature bidet." The fun kept coming too. To make it even a more memorable experience, when I turned on my light in the bivy to prepare my gear, there was a giant spider crawling on the roof of the bivy right next to my head. Yes, I did scream like a girl. Good times.
One hundred and seven miles complete, 60 miles to go. Today I met up with up with my brother Jon, who came out from Chicago to hike with me until Thursday. Jon and I entered Desolation Wilderness today after passing numerous alpine lakes including Lower Echo Lake, Upper Echo Lake, Tamarack Lake, Lake of the Woods and Lake Margery. Basically, if you like alpine lakes Desolation Wilderness is the place to be. Right now we are camping on the outskirts of Lake Aloha and I am enjoying the new and much larger tent we brought. I can actually sit up in the tent and even get in and out with ease. Tomorrow we will see many more lakes as well as cross Dicks Pass at 9,300 feet.

Daleks, a dinosaur and The Paternoster Gang are seen in the video as the Doctor seemingly tries to fix his mistakes.
BBC One debuted the first full trailer for "Doctor Who" season 8 during the World Cup final between Germany and Argentina on Sunday, July 13. Peter Capaldi stars as the latest incarnation of the Doctor, who will go "into darkness."
"I don't think I know who the Doctor is any more," his companion Clara Oswald, played by Jenna Coleman, says. The Doctor himself says, "I'm the Doctor. I've lived for over two thousand years. I've made many mistakes, it's about time to do something about that."
A T-rex roaming the street in London, Daleks, Cyberman and The Paternoster Gang are seen in the video. At the end of the sneak peek, the Doctor asks Clara, "Am I a good man?" She replies, "I don't know."
The new season of "Doctor Who" will premiere Saturday, August 23, at 8 P.M. ET on BBC America. Samuel Anderson joins the cast in a recurring role as Danny Pink, a teacher at Coal Hill Secondary School where Clara also teaches.
Following the leak of five scripts for the upcoming season of the British sci-fi series, the first two episodes of season 8 have leaked online. A rough black-and-white cut of the first episode titled "Deep Breath" as well as the second episode were taken from the BBC Latin America headquarters in Miami and more episodes could be leaked online.
A BBC Worldwide spokesperson said of the latest leaks, "This is part of BBC Worldwide's ongoing security investigation into leaked unfinished Doctor Who materials. This content is currently being removed and originates from the same Miami server we disabled last week, it is not a new issue." They also asked fans not to share the leaked material.

The 1st and last Costa cruise: Costa Mediterranea Cruise Review by janicemp
Overall Member Rating
The 1st and last Costa cruise
Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean
Embarkation: Crete (Heraklion)
The worst meals on board were dinner, if you didn't like the food served in the restaurant you were pretty stuck as the buffet restaurant wasn't open in the evening. The food wasn't that great in the restaurant most of the meat dishes didn't come with vegetables or salad, the food was luke warm some were cold you had to request the vegetables and when they did arrive they consisted of onions and aubergines and nothing else. very little choice on the menus.
The only drinks you could have in the restaurant were wine, beer or water. If you wanted something else you had to go and get it yourself from the bar.
The buffet wasn't always open and they closed it at odd times during the day with no other options for the passengers to eat.
If you were late getting in because you had been on an organized trip nothing was open the buffet closed at 5pm and the snack bar was also closed only More the bars served drinks.
The majority of the staff were pleasant, some of the waiting staff however in the buffet restaurant were rude and abrupt.
The safety issues seem to have been addressed and i was comfortable with the lifeboat drills etc, the only thing on that though however they did say it in about 7 different languages, which could be interesting in an emergency situation.
The entertainment was dismal, the majority of the passengers were rude arrogant Italians and you certainly felt outnumbered we had only one rep who was called Tamaye she was lovely and very helpful. One of the dutch girls was also very friendly and came with us on one of the trips.
The trips that Costa provided were good and the local tour guides that they used in the main were very knowledgeable.
We had an outside cabin and the room was clean and very pleasant, the bed however was rock hard.
The ship was clean and well designed with lots of seating areas and bars. The were several pools and hot tubs all very clean. the deck was well designed with lots of sun beds, bars etc.
I have been with several different companies in the past and the best so far was Princess they are leaps and bounds ahead of Costa even though they are both owned by carnival. Less

Photographe de Mariage, Portrait et photojournalismKevin Hayden PhotographieHaving spent most of my life in the hospitality industry, the move into full time professional photography has been made easier with the years of customer related business. I have bought, sold and developed property, I have managed/owned a large taxi fleet. Looking after regular clients and looking out for new ones, managing staff and recruiting and training were a weekly activity for me.
Since moving to Paris in 2004 and concentrating on full time photography things have gone from strength to strength, and my client base continues to grow at a satisfying rate annually. Last year I decided to turn my attention back to the joyous experience of wedding photography, and what fun and privilige it is! Already for 2017 I have engagements on both sides of the Atlantic, and I look forward to the adventures of wedding photography once more with enthusiasm!
Another passionate pastime is travel, and reporting on the refugee situation in Burma and Thailand.

Sa présentation
An Irish man in Paris since 2004 and a full time photographer.
When I discovered photography at the age of seventeen it opened up a world from which I often felt apart from, not a part of. Photography gave me a voice... a means with which to express my unspoken point of view. My photographs are about me, they express who I am, how I feel, and how I see the world. My point of view.
I hope that my photographs touch people, and carry them to a place of comfort and reflection and perhaps introspection. A place to wander...
My aim is to record the dimensions of life, the living, the objects and the colours; the beginning, the end and all the contours of our journeys. The internal, the external and how all pieces depend on each other, our interdependence. When you see the photos people not only see the folds and sharp edges but they feel............when I am at my best the viewer hopefully feels hugged........touched!
It's difficult to be objective about "my" photographs, they are not mine!
What comes to me and touches me in a photograph, I also wish it to touch others.
I prefer to give my voice to wedding and portrait photography.

We are about to take our first break. Remember, until the trial is over, do not discuss this case with anyone, including your fellow jurors, members of your family, people involved in the trial, or anyone else, and do not allow others to discuss the case with you. This includes discussing the case in Internet chat rooms or through Internet blogs, Internet bulletin boards, emails or text messaging. If anyone tries to communicate with you about the case, please let me know about it immediately. Do not read, watch, or listen to any news reports or other accounts about the trial or anyone associated with it, including any online information. Do not do any research, such as consulting dictionaries, searching the Internet or using other reference materials, and do not make any investigation about the case on your own. Finally, keep an open mind until all the evidence has been presented and you have heard the arguments of counsel, my instructions on the law, and the views of your fellow jurors.
If you need to speak with me about anything, simply give a signed note to the [marshal] [bailiff] [clerk] to give to me.
From time to time during the trial, it may become necessary for me to take up legal matters with the attorneys privately, either by having a conference at the bench or, when necessary, by calling a recess.
We will do what we can to keep the number and length of these conferences to a minimum. I may not always grant an attorney's request for a conference.
Conducting bench conferences is within the discretion of the court. Regarding the defendant's right to be present at bench conferences, see Jury Instructions Committee of the Ninth Circuit, A Manual on Jury Trial Procedures § 1.6 (2013).
The parties have agreed what [name of witness]'s testimony would be if called as a witness. You should consider that testimony in the same way as if it had been given here in court.
There is a difference between stipulating that a witness would give certain testimony and stipulating that the facts to which a witness might testify are true. United States v. Lambert, 604 F.2d 594, 595 (8th Cir.1979); United States v. Hellman, 560 F.2d 1235, 1236 (5th Cir.1977). On the latter, see Instruction 2.4 (Stipulations of Fact).
The parties have agreed to certain facts that have been stated to you. You should therefore treat these facts as having been proved.
"Stipulations freely and voluntarily entered into in criminal trials are as binding and enforceable as those entered into in civil actions." United States v. Gwaltney, 790 F.2d 1378, 1386 (9th Cir.1986). "When parties have entered into stipulations as to material facts, those facts will be deemed to have been conclusively established." United States v. Houston, 547 F.2d 104, 107 (9th Cir.1976) (citations omitted). "[W]hen a stipulation to a crucial fact is entered into the record in open court in the presence of the defendant, and is agreed to by defendant's acknowledged counsel, the trial court may reasonably assume that the defendant is aware of the content of the stipulation and agrees to it through his or her attorney. Unless a criminal defendant indicates objection at the time the stipulation is made, he or she is ordinarily bound by such stipulation." United States v. Ferreboeuf, 632 F.2d 832, 836 (9th Cir.1980). In any event, a trial judge need not make as probing an inquiry as is required by Fed. R. Crim. P. 11 when considering whether a defendant's factual stipulation is knowing and voluntary. United States v. Miller, 588 F.2d 1256, 1263-64 (9th Cir.1978). See also Old Chief v. United States, 519 U.S. 172, 186 (1997) (acceptance of a stipulation regarding prior conviction may be appropriate even where government objects under Fed. R. Evid. 403);Jury Instructions Committee of the Ninth Circuit, A Manual on Jury Trial Procedures § 1.1.B (2013).
The court has decided it is not necessary to receive evidence of the fact that [insert fact noticed e.g., the city of San Francisco is north of the city of Los Angeles] [because this fact is of such common knowledge]. You may, but are not required to, accept this fact as true.
An instruction regarding judicial notice should be given at the time notice is taken. "A judicially noticed fact must be one not subject to reasonable dispute in that it is either (1) generally known within the territorial jurisdiction of the trial court or (2) capable of accurate and ready determination by resort to sources whose accuracy cannot reasonably be questioned." Fed. R. Evid. 201(b). Although the court must instruct a jury in a civil case to accept as conclusive any fact judicially noticed, "[i]n a criminal case, the court shall instruct the jury that it may, but is not required to, accept as conclusive any fact judicially noticed." Fed. R. Evid. 201(g). Thus, in United States v. Chapel, 41 F.3d 1338 (9th Cir.1994), the trial court correctly took judicial notice of a bank's FDIC status because the evidence established its status "was not subject to reasonable dispute." Id. at 1342. Moreover, the court did not "usurp the jury's fact-finding role by taking judicial notice" when it instructed the jury that "you may accept the court's declaration as evidence and regard as proved the fact or event which has been judicially noticed. You are not required to do so, however, since you are the sole judges of the facts." Id.
When a person is unavailable to testify at trial, the deposition of that person may be used at the trial. A deposition is the sworn testimony of a witness taken before trial. The witness is placed under oath to tell the truth and lawyers for each party may ask questions. The questions and answers are recorded.
The deposition of [name of witness], which was taken on [date], is about to be presented to you. You should consider deposition testimony in the same way that you consider the testimony of the witnesses who have appeared before you. [Do not place any significance on the behavior or tone of voice of any person reading the questions or answers.]
Use this instruction only when the court concludes testimony by deposition may be received as substantive evidence in light of the rules of evidence and the defendant's confrontation rights. The Committee recommends that it be given immediately before a deposition is read. The bracketed last sentence of the instruction would not be used when the deposition is presented by video or audio recording.
See Fed. R. Crim. P. 15.
You are about to [hear] [watch] a recording that has been received in evidence. A transcript of the recording is being provided to help you identify speakers and to help you decide what the speakers say. Remember that the recording is the evidence, not the transcript. If you hear something different from what appears in the transcript, what you heard is controlling. Listen carefully; the transcript will not be available during your deliberations.
See United States v. Franco, 136 F.3d 622, 626 (9th Cir.1998).
The Committee recommends that this instruction be given immediately before a recording is played so that the jury is alerted to the fact that what they hear is controlling. It need not be repeated if more than one recording is played. However, the judge should remind the jury that the recording and not the transcript is the evidence and that they should disregard anything in the transcript that they do not hear. If the instruction is also to be given as part of the closing instructions, it should be modified appropriately.
You are about to [hear] [watch] a recordingin the [specify the foreign language] language. A transcript of the recording has been admitted into evidence. The transcript is an official English-language translation of the recording.
Although some of you may know the [specify the foreign language] language, it is important that all jurors consider the same evidence. Therefore, you must accept the English translation contained in the transcript even if you would translate it differently.
The Committee recommends giving this instruction immediately before the jury hears a recorded conversation in a foreign language if the accuracy of the translation is not in issue. As the court noted in United States v. Franco, 136 F.3d 622, 626 (9th Cir.1998):
The district court also correctly held that the relation between tapes and transcripts changes when the tapes are in a foreign language. When tapes are in English, they normally constitute the actual evidence and transcripts are used only as aids to understanding the tapes; the jury is instructed that if the tape and transcript vary, the tape is controlling. See United States v. Turner, 528 F.2d 143, 167-68 (9th Cir.1975). When the tape is in a foreign language, however, such an instruction is "not only nonsensical, it has the potential for harm where the jury includes bilingual jurors." United States v. Fuentes-Montijo, 68 F.3d 352, 355-56 (9th Cir.1995). We therefore have upheld a trial court's instruction that a jury is not free to disagree with a translated transcript of tape recordings. See id.
When the accuracy of the translation is in issue, see United States v. Rrapi, 175 F.3d 742, 748 (9th Cir.1999).
You are about to [hear] [watch] a recording in the [specify the foreign language] language. A transcript of the recording has been admitted into evidence. The transcript is an official English-language translation of the recording. The accuracy of the transcript is disputed in this case.
Whether a transcript is an accurate translation, in whole or in part, is for you to decide. In considering whether a transcript accurately describes the words spoken in a conversation, you should consider the testimony presented to you regarding how, and by whom, the transcript was made. You may consider the knowledge, training, and experience of the translator, the audibility of the recording, as well as the nature of the conversation and the reasonableness of the translation in light of all the evidence in the case.
Although some of you may know the [specify the foreign language] language, it is important that all jurors consider the same evidence. Therefore, you must not rely in any way on any knowledge you may have of the language spoken on the recording; your consideration of the transcript must be based on the evidence in the case.
This instruction is appropriate where parties are unable to produce an official transcript or stipulate to a transcript. The court should encourage the parties to produce an official or stipulated transcript of the foreign language recording that satisfies all sides. United States v. Cruz, 765 F.2d 1020, 1023 (11th Cir.1985); United States v. Wilson, 578 F.2d 67, 69–70 (5th Cir.1978). If the parties are unable to do so, then they should submit competing translations of the disputed passages, and each side may submit evidence supporting the accuracy of its version or challenging the accuracy of the other side. Cruz, 765 F.2d at 1023; Wilson, 578; F.2d at 70; United States v. Franco, 136 F.3d 622, 626 (9th Cir.1998).
Jurors should be instructed to rely only on the English translation, not on any knowledge they may have of the foreign language spoken on the recording. United States v. Fuentes-Montijo, 68 F.3d 353, 355 (9th Cir.1995).
See also Instructions 1.12 (Jury to be Guided by Official English Translation/Interpretation);2.7 (Transcript of Recording in English); 2.8 (Transcript of Recording in Foreign language); and 2.9 (Foreign Language Testimony).
Approved 8/2012
You are about to hear testimony of a witness who will be testifying in the [specify the foreign language] language. This witness will testify through the official court interpreter. Although some of you may know [specify the foreign language] language, it is important that all jurors consider the same evidence. Therefore, you must accept the official English translation of the witness's testimony even if you would translate it differently. In this way, all jurors are considering the same evidence.
This instruction should be given immediately before the jury hears testimony in a foreign language. Cf. United States v. Franco, 136 F.3d 622, 626 (9th Cir.1998); United States v. Fuentes-Montijo, 68 F.3d 352, 355-56 (9th Cir.1995).
You are about to hear evidence that the defendant committed other [crimes] [wrongs] [acts] not charged here. You may consider this evidence only for its bearing, if any, on the question of the defendant's [intent] [motive] [opportunity] [preparation] [plan] [knowledge] [identity] [absence of mistake] [absence of accident] and for no other purpose. [You may not consider this evidence as evidence of guilt of the crime for which the defendant is now on trial.]
"Under Federal Rule of Evidence 404(b), evidence of other acts may be admissible to prove, among other things, motive, opportunity, intent, or knowledge. In order for other act evidence to be admissible, (1) the evidence must tend to prove a material issue in the case, (2) the acts must be similar to the offense charged, (3) proof of the other acts must be based upon sufficient evidence, and (4) the acts must not be too remote in time. See United States v. Montgomery, 150 F.3d 983, 1000 (9th Cir.1998)." United States v. Fuchs, 218 F.3d 957, 965 (9th Cir.2000). See also Fed. R. Evid. 413 and 414 (Evidence of Similar Crimes in Sexual Assault and Child Molestation Cases).
In Montgomery, the Ninth Circuit concluded the trial court's giving of the following limiting instruction supported a finding that admitting the other acts evidence was not an abuse of discretion: "You have heard evidence that defendant [ ] has previously been convicted of conspiracy to manufacture methamphetamine. You may consider that evidence only as it bears on intent, knowledge, or lack of mistake and for no other purpose. You may not consider a prior conviction as evidence of guilt of the crime for which the defendant is now on trial." Montgomery, 150 F.3d at 1001.
Such a limiting instruction must be given if requested, Fed. R. Evid. 105, and it may be appropriate to give such an instruction sua sponte. Nonetheless, it is "well-settled that where no limiting instruction is requested concerning evidence of other criminal acts, the failure of the trial court to give such an instruction sua sponte is not reversible error." United States v. Multi-Management, Inc., 743 F.2d 1359, 1364 (9th Cir.1984).
You are about to hear evidence that [describe evidence to be received for limited purpose]. I instruct you that this evidence is admitted only for the limited purpose of [describe purpose] and, therefore, you must consider it only for that limited purpose and not for any other purpose.
Federal Rule of Evidence 105 provides that when evidence is admitted for a limited purpose, the court, when requested, must provide a limiting instruction. Furthermore, the court must provide an appropriate limiting instruction sua sponte if failure to do so would affect the defendant's "substantial rights." See United States v. Armijo, 5 F.3d 1229, 1232 (9th Cir.1993). For example, in United States v. Sauza-Martinez, 217 F.3d 754, 760 (9th Cir.2000), the Ninth Circuit held the trial court "had no alternative" but to give the jury alimiting instruction sua sponte when a testifying co-defendant's post-arrest statements were admitted as substantive evidence against her under Fed. R. Evid. 801(d)(2)(A), but were not admissible against another co-defendant "under any theory" (emphasis in original). Under the circumstances of the case, it was plain error to fail to give the limiting instruction sua sponte. Id. at 761.
The Committee recommends judges use limiting instructions whenever evidence is received for a limited purpose. "We have repeatedly held that a district court's careful and frequent limiting instructions to the jury, explaining how and against whom certain evidence may be considered, can reduce or eliminate any possibility of prejudice arising from a joint trial." United States v. Fernandez, 388 F.3d 1199, 1243 (9th Cir.2004) (internal citations omitted).
You have heard evidence that a photo of the defendant was shown to [name of witness]. You may consider this evidence only for [specify admissible purpose] and not for any other purpose. [Because the government obtains photos of many people from many different sources and for many different purposes, you must not infer the defendant committed this or any other crime from the fact that the government obtained and displayed the defendant's photo.]
See United States v. Monks, 774 F.2d 945, 954-55 (9th Cir.1985), in which the Ninth Circuit held the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying a motion for mistrial after the defendant declined the trial court's offer of a limiting instruction to address a witness's unintentional reference to a photo lineup as "mugshots."
At the beginning of the trial, I described the charge[s] against the defendant. For reasons that do not concern you, [specify count[s] or charge[s]] [is] [are] no longer before you. Do not speculate about why the charge[s] [is] [are] no longer part of this trial.
The defendant is on trial only for the charge[s] of [remaining count[s]]. You may consider the evidence presented only as it relates to the remaining count[s].
See United States v. de Cruz, 82 F.3d 856, 865 (9th Cir.1996) (concluding that the district court's instruction adequately informed the jury that the dismissed counts were not before them, that the defendant was on trial only for the remaining counts, and that the evidence could only be considered as it related to the remaining charged counts or as it related to the defendant's intent).
For reasons that do not concern you, the case against codefendant [name] is no longer before you. Do not speculate why. This fact should not influence your verdict[s] with reference to the remaining defendant[s], and you must base your verdict[s] solely on the evidence against the remaining defendant[s].
Although it is not plain error to give a similar instruction when a codefendant dies after the jury begins to deliberate, it would be advisable under certain circumstances to give a "simple and honest" explanation to a jury as to why a codefendant is no longer in the case, particularly if the codefendant's removal from the case occurred early in the trial. United States v. Bussell, 414 F.3d 1048, 1054 (9th Cir.2005). The later in the trial the codefendant is "removed," the more likely the jury would be influenced by a fact-specific disclosure, especially if the remaining defendant[s] had a close relationship with the withdrawn defendant, and therefore a better approach at that stage might be simply informing the jury that the codefendant "was no longer a defendant in the case." Id.
No reference should ordinarily be made in this situation to a plea of guilty by the codefendant. See, e.g., United States v. Barrientos, 758 F.2d 1152, 1159-60 (7th Cir.1985) (when a codefendant becomes absent from a trial for any reason, a trial court should acknowledge the codefendant's absence to the jury and instruct them on their duty to consider the evidence of guilt or innocence as to the remaining defendant without any reference to any implications of the codefendant's absence). See also United States v. Carraway, 108 F.3d 745, 755 (7th Cir.1997); United States v. Rapp, 871 F.2d 957, 967-68 (11th Cir.1989).
See also United States v. Candoli, 870 F.2d 496, 501-02 (9th Cir.1989) ("flight" instruction on codefendant's midtrial disappearance did not prejudice defendant when instruction did not require jury to consider codefendant's absence as evidence of guilt and provided that evidence of codefendant's flight was not admissible against defendant).
You have heard evidence that the defendant has been tried before. Keep in mind, however, that you must decide this case solely on the evidence presented to you in this trial. You are not to consider the fact of a previous trial in deciding this case.
A preferable practice is to avoid all reference to prior trials.
