Harry Styles is the latest guy to enter Taylor Swift's world of ex-boyfriends.
After dating for two months, Life & Style exclusively revealed Taylor and Harry's break up on Jan. 7.
EXCLUSIVE: Taylor Swift and Harry Styles break up
And now we're looking back at all her other former partners — who've definitely inspired some of Taylor's No. 1 hits over the years — and why love just wasn't enough for them!
"The way I look at love is you have to follow it, and fall hard, if you fall hard. You have to forget about what everyone else thinks," the 23-year-old's said. "It has to be an us-against-the-world mentality. You have to make it work by prioritizing it, and by falling in love really fast, without thinking too hard. If I think too hard about a relationship I'll talk myself out of it. ...I have rules for a lot of areas of my life. Love is not going to be one of them."
Joe Jonas (2008): Though the pair, both 19 at the time, kept pretty quiet about their short-lived relationship, their split became massive news when he reportedly dumped her on a 27-second phone call!Song: "Forever and Always"Taylor on break up: "I've written about [the split], and I like to write about my life … that's just how I deal with things. [Forever and Always is] a song about watching somebody completely fade away in a relationship and wondering what you did wrong."
Taylor Lautner (2009): The duo started dating after meeting on set of the flick Valentine's Day. Swift was 20 and Lautner was 17. After dating just three months, they called it quits in December 2009.Songs: "The Story of Us" and "Back to December" – which is apparently about Swift apologizing to Lautner for their split.Swift reacts to seeing Lautner for the first time post-break up (though it's not 100% confirmed it's about him, who else could it be?!): "It was at an awards show and there had been this falling-out between me and this guy. I think both of us had so much that we wanted to say, but we're sitting six seats away from each other, just fighting this silent war of 'I don't care that you're here.' I remember getting home and sitting at the kitchen table and saying to my mom, 'It was like I was standing alone in a crowded room.' That's when my eyes glazed over and I got distracted and walked away to write ["The Story of Us"]. My mom is used to me doing that."
John Mayer (2010): John and Taylor were rumored to be dating from late 2009 (after the Lautner split) until June 2010. Though Taylor sang on John's hit "Half of My Heart," it wasn't enough to keep this pair together. Perhaps their massive age difference was to blame: he was 32, she was 21.Song: "Dear John" ("Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone / Don't think I was too young to be messed with?")Taylor's response to John's quotes about "Dear John" – which he says he was "humiliated" by: "How presumptuous! I never disclose who my songs are about."
Jake Gyllenhaal (2011): Jake, 29, and Taylor, 21 (at the time) shocked the world when they were photographed hanging out everywhere from Thanksgiving Day in NYC to her home in Nashville, but they split in December after dating two months.Songs: A ton off her "Red Album" are said to be about him! "All Too Well" ("Left my scarf there at your sister's house / And you still got it in your drawer even now)Taylor on the song, though she won't admit it's about Jake: "[It] was the hardest to write because it took me a long time to filter through everything I wanted to say … It started out being a 10-minute song, which you can't put on an album. I had to filter it down to a story that could work in the form of a song."
Conor Kennedy (2012): After a summer of love — and hanging with Conor's famous family — Taylor, 22, split with Conor, 18, in the fall due to their schedules.Song: Some people believe "Everything Has Changed" is about him. She also penned "Starlight" about Ethel Kennedy, Conor's grandmother.Taylor just days before their split: "I don't know how to have a normal relationship because I try to act normal, love from a normal place and live a normal life, but there is sort of an abnormal magnifying glass, like telescope lens, on everything that happens between me and anybody else. I don't really know that much about love, it turns out."
NEWS: Taylor Swift's song about her summer with ex Conor Kennedy and his family
Harry Styles (2013): They began dating in November after being spotted holding hands on The X Factor — and even shared a smooch as the clock struck midnight on New Year's Eve — but as Life & Style exclusively confirmed earlier this week, this duo ended their relationship after only two months of dating.Song: Following their split, Taylor tweeted "...'til you put me down" — a lyric from her smash hit "I Knew You Were a Trouble" ... but we think Taylor could potentially pen "My Heart Never Went in One Direction" on a future album.Taylor Talks: But not just yet — though we have a feeling she'll say something sooner or later!

Meatballs for Patsy's Meatball Lasagna
- Servings: 12
- 3/4 cup fresh breadcrumbs
- 6 tablespoons whole milk
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 medium onions, finely chopped
- 6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef, preferably chuck
- 1 1/2 pounds ground pork
- 3 large, whole eggs, lightly beaten
- 3 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh oregano
- 1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
- Dried breadcrumbs, for work surface
- Olive oil, for frying
Place breadcrumbs in a small bowl. Drizzle the milk over and let stand until absorbed.
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
Place the ground meats in a large bowl. Add breadcrumb mixture to meats along with the reserved onion and garlic, whole eggs, yolks, parsley, oregano, and cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Using your hands, mix until just combined.
Sprinkle breadcrumbs over work surface. Roll 3/4 cup meatball mixture into a thin strip, about 12 inches long; repeat 3 more times. Line strips next to one another; sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Cut strips into 1-inch lengths. Repeat process with remaining meat mixture.
Working in batches, transfer 1-inch pieces to a large sieve; sprinkle lightly with breadcrumbs to prevent sticking. Toss until pieces become round and form meatballs.

homesavant6 DEC, 2008These are my favorite meatballs -- they taste terrific and they're easy! I like how small they are too, just bite size, no cutting, so more flavor. Thanks for sharing! LKReply

HIROSHIMA – Right-hander Kan Otake went the distance and Yoshiyuki Ishihara belted a sayonara home run to lift the streaking Hiroshima Carp to a 2-1 victory over the Hanshin Tigers on Tuesday evening.
The Central League's third-place Carp, who are aiming for their first postseason appearance since they lost the 1991 Japan Series, won seven straight for the first time in four years. They moved 5½ games ahead of the fourth-place Chunichi Dragons in the battle for the CL's third and final playoff spot, while pulling to within five games of the second-place Tigers.
"Otake gave us his all, so somehow I wanted to get him the win," said Ishihara, who drove in both Carp runs before a Mazda Stadium crowd of 21,787. "It's a good thing it reached the seats."
Otake (9-9) allowed a run on four hits and a walk, while striking out six, two coming with two outs and a runner on third base.
"I wasn't thinking too much, just trying to throw the ball where Ishihara put his mitt," Otake said. "I'm happy I could go all nine innings."
Ishihara plated the game's first run with a two-out, bases-loaded bouncer to second in the fourth off Tigers right-hander Randy Messenger. Although the Tigers had no play on the infield single, Ishihara slid in head first.
Messenger allowed a run in seven innings. He allowed four hits, struck out nine and walked three. Yasutomo Kubo pitched out of a bases-loaded jam in the eighth, but his first pitch of the ninth, a fastball to Ishihara, reached the seats for the Carp catcher's seventh home run.
Giants 4, Dragons 2
At Nagoya Dome, Yomiuri snapped a three-game losing streak behind 7⅔ strong innings from ace Tetsuya Utsumi (13-5) in a win over Chunichi.
Hayato Sakamoto put the Giants in front with a two-run, second-inning double, and Shinnosuke Abe hit his 32nd home run, a two-run shot in the fifth.
Swallows 8, BayStars 6
At Yokohama Stadium, Tokyo Yakult's Wladimir Balentien failed to add to his season-record home run total, going 0-for-3 with two walks, but his team beat Yokohama to win its third straight.
Six BayStars pitchers combined to issue 12 walks.
Eagles 7, Hawks 5
At Sendai's Kleenex Stadium, Tohoku Rakuten overturned a 3-0 deficit in the fifth inning on an RBI single by Kazuya Fujita and Casey McGehee's first grand slam in Japan to beat Fukuoka Softbank and cut its magic number to clinch the franchise's first PL pennant to nine.
Rookie right-hander Takahiro Norimoto (14-7) earned the win despite allowing five runs in eight innings. Wily Mo Pena, who won the PL's Best IX Award for designated hitters in his 2012 debut season, hit his first homer of 2013 for the Hawks.
Buffaloes 10, Marines 4
At Chiba's QVC Marine Field, every member of the Orix starting lineup had at least one of the last-place Buffaloes' 17 hits.
Chihiro Kaneko (12-8) allowed a run in seven innings in a win over second-place Chiba Lotte, which fell eight games back of the Eagles.
Lions 5, Fighters 1
At Seibu Dome, Takayuki Kishi (10-5) allowed a solo home run and three walks over seven innings to reach double-digit wins for the second straight season as Seibu knocked off Hokkaido Nippon Ham behind two runs driven in by PL RBI leader Hideto Asamura.

I think you have pointed the right problem - "Check Apache Has Oracle File Access". But how to fix it..
i have given permission to tnsnames.ora as
-rwxrwxr-x 1 oracle oinstall 550 Mar 5 11:38 tnsnames.ora
Please help..
3. Re: PHP ORACLE Connection Problem996585 Mar 14, 2013 9:03 AM (in response to 996585)The problem was solved. You have rightly pointed that this has some permission issue.
The clue was on page 108 of the book you referred - "If you built PHP withan ORACLE_HOME, then check the Oracle home directory is
readable by the Apache process owner"
Then i thought who is process owner and this was apache user.
then i dod su - apache and it was telling "The account is currently not available".
It required a shell creation for apache user.
chsh -s /bin/bash apache.
Then by changing directory step by step to tnsnames.ora.
i found that in ORACLE_HOME /product has permission as drwxrwx---.
so i made it drwxrwxr-x and it works.
Thank you so much.
4. Re: PHP ORACLE Connection Problemcj Mar 14, 2013 6:05 PM (in response to 996585)There was a changePerm.sh script in a later 10.2 patchset to help set permissions. Oracle 10g Express Edition and Oracle 11g didn't have the same restrictive settings, so generally just the home directory needed extra access granted in these other releases.
If you're uncomfortable (for whatever reasons) with granting the extra access, you could use PHP with the free Oracle Instant Client libraries.
5. Re: PHP ORACLE Connection Problem996585 Apr 8, 2013 6:37 AM (in response to 996585)On this same machine i installed perl-DBI and Oracle-DBD.
i can run a perl script (which connects to a ORACLE database) with command line and getting the output but when i run it through web it gives the following error.
[Mon Apr 08 11:10:49 2013] [error] [client 10.141.6.213] install_driver(Oracle) failed: Can't load '/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so' for module DBD::Oracle: libclntsh.so.10.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory at /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 230.
i can run php script through web which fetch data from a oracle database on this machine.
Please help.
6. Re: PHP ORACLE Connection Problemcj Apr 8, 2013 4:14 PM (in response to 996585)You probably need to set the various Oracle environment variables so the webserver has access to them.
There are some recent threads in this forum that might help you find how & where to set them for
your setup.

FreePriceAlerts Makes Black Friday Lines a Thing of the Past
Shop Online and Get the Lowest Price Without Leaving Home
Oct 23, 2012, 09:27 ET from FreePriceAlerts
PETERBOROUGH, N.H., Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- This holiday season, shoppers can skip the long, early morning lines on Black Friday and still get the best deals.

If the shopper has found the lowest price, it confirms it with a green check mark.
"FreePriceAlerts is effective because it does all the work for you – once the web app is downloaded, consumers just need to shop the way they normally would and the price engine does all the work," said Robert Wilkins, founder and CEO of FreePriceAlerts. "This holiday season, everyone can be sure they are getting the best deals, without heading to the mall at midnight on Black Friday."
Tens of thousands of leading retailers work with FreePriceAlerts, including Amazon, Macy's, Home Depot, BestBuy, Target, Sears and Walmart. The service generates an alert every four seconds, saving consumers money on everything they buy online – from toys and games to electronics and home goods.

Things Cora really likes: The Sound of Her Own Voice (great... a lawyer in training), Shoes, Handbags, Sunglasses, Cell Phones, Staircases, the Park (particularly the slides), Books, Balls, Balloons, Anything Spherical, Ducks, Dogs, Animals in General, Toilet Water, Bugs, and Mandarin Oranges
Things Cora hates: Daddy Leaving the Room, Elevators, Six-Hour-Long Car Rides, Sitting in a High Chair Once She's Done Eating, Sandals, Pedicures, Leaving the Park, Swings, and a Big Yellow Chicken [that, when you press the wing, it plays the chicken dance song, flaps its wings and moves back and forth... terrifying]
Aside from her likes and dislikes, she doesn't actually say "no" or "yes" yet, but she shakes her head for "no" and nods her head for "yes." They're practically the only common toddler words not in her vocabulary, and I'm not complaining. The point still gets across though. "No, you horrible lady, I do not intend to leave the park and return home, I have only gone down the slide 37 times!" is the meaning behind the dirty look she gives me as she shakes her head and babbles something at me in toddler speak that I'm pretty sure is an expletive. (I'm her mother, I read her thoughts.) And then on the walk home, when she runs up to someone else's porch, sits down and waves, "bye!" that means, "I have found a new home. Surely these people will allow me to run into traffic, eat rocks and roll around in bird poop. You, however, totally suck, Lady." It is apparent that we will have a very long 16 1/2 years to come.

Two candidates will face off for Largo's only contested race in Tuesday's election.
Initially, three races were up for grabs, but Vice Mayor Gigi Arntzen and Mayor Pat Gerard were automatically re-elected without opposition.
Commissioner Rodney Woods, 52, who owns a landscaping and pest control business, was elected in 2006. He is being challenged for Seat 3 by Curtis Holmes, 60, who owns an insurance business.
Holmes, known for sharing his views during the citizen comment portion of city meetings, has made two unsuccessful City Commission runs before.
In Largo, city commissioners serve three-year terms and represent the city as a whole, rather than by districts.
During the campaign, Woods, who sees himself as a community unifier, has emphasized his experience, his support of long-term plans to redevelop Largo and control growth and his ability to work with other city leaders to accomplish goals.
Holmes, who describes himself as an "out of the box" thinker, says he has proposed "a plethora of innovative ideas" to maintain city services and keep taxes down, but city officials have rejected them.
Holmes has called Woods "ineffective" and has indicated that Woods is not an independent thinker. Woods has questioned Holmes' veracity and the merit of Holmes' ideas.
Tension between Woods and Holmes didn't begin with the campaign.
Over the past couple of years, Holmes, who has been critical of several city leaders, has focused much of his criticism on Woods.
In 2007, Woods told authorities that Holmes met him at City Hall and threatened to expose dirt on him if he didn't resign. Holmes denied making threats. There was a police inquiry, but the case was closed without finding independent corroboration of either account.
Holmes, who has said he quit drinking after arrests for driving under the influence in the 1980s, recently claimed Woods was drunk during a 2007 meeting. Woods called Holmes a liar.
Largo's local unit of the Communications Workers of America is endorsing Woods. Former Commissioner Gay Gentry is also supporting him.
Former commissioners Martin Shelby and Charlie Harper are backing Holmes.
Besides the Seat 3 race, Largo residents will vote on an amendment to the city's charter. The change, if approved, would shorten the election qualifying period from 60 to 15 days. Prospective candidates would still have 60 days to gather petition card signatures because the amendment would also let them pick up cards 45 days before the qualifying period begins.
The rationale: Largo's qualifying period is longer than periods for all other cities in Pinellas County.
Recent legislation prevents candidates from getting certain information about voters from the Supervisor of Elections Office until the qualification period ends or until another candidate qualifies to challenge them.
City Commissioners proposed the amendment because candidates who qualified early this year discovered they had to wait several weeks before moving forward with their campaigns and informing voters of their qualifications.
So far, the Supervisor of Elections office has received more than 4,150 mail ballots. That's more than 9 percent of the city's registered voters.

This is the first time in years that I declined the flu shot at work and wouldn't you know it, I end up getting SICK. I forgot the public health nurse was coming in so she caught me by complete surprise and I'm sure many of you needle phobs would agree that you need at least an hour or two to prepare for such an event. I bypassed the painful procedure and am now I'm paying for it. I'm so not a good patient (just ask Trev), especially with an almost 2 year old testing everything including my patience.
These are the week's events in no particular order...
We bundled up and took in the annual Downtown Vernon Light Up Festival. It was pretty chilly so after an hour of strolling down the middle of the street (love that) we treated Saiger to some Tim Horton's timbits and "coffee". It was really 3/4 milk mixed with 1/4 hot chocolate, but Saige calls any hot beverage "coffee" which garners a lot of strange looks.
I'm not surprised that Saige's nickname at daycare is Trouble. Someone (aka Saiger) learned how to use a kitchen chair to get up on the counter and 'rescue' Halloween candy from the top cupboard! I went in to check on her because she was being eerily quiet and found her standing on the counter trying to tear a wrapper off a lollipop!
Some photos from Cedar's 3rd birthday. It was a princess themed tea party and Mish - the professional artist that she is - went all out.
Bedazzle your own princess crown
Kiss the kiss on the frog game
Purple "tea" served in vintage tea cups
Homemade shortbread and two-tone cupcakes
Take home tea sets in the goodie bags
It was insane... even some of the adult dressed up as queens and knights! Sadly these pictures don't give the party justice.
Someone else had a birthday!!
** Caleb-bear **
I can't believe he's 2 already and wearing size 7 shoes.
Auntie's favourite little man and Mommy's favourite little girl.
Some shots from kidnastics. I wish I could upload the video. Saige loves "circle time" - she reenacts it at home for Trev which is always hysterical. They have to do an action (ie. hop like frog) until her teacher Joanne says "stop" and Saige is always a second or two off and does this hugely animated arms out, fingers splayed STOP that cracks me up every time.
We went out for dinner one night and Saige was all about the daddy PDA's. Of course Trev loved every second of it as she's been kind of a momma's girl lately.
A giant mug of hot cocoa and marshmallows courtesy of daddy dearest... mom would never give Saigelette sugar in a breakable cup so close to bedtime.
For longer car rides, we started using the cell phone to entertain Saige with youtube video clips - she loves the crazy cat montages reminiscent of America's Funniest Home Videos.
And speaking of America's Funniest Home Videos... the spray nozzle on our kitchen faucet literally blew off mid-cleaning Boo's fishtank. If only I had instant replay because it was truly hilarious! Trev was drenched and so not amused. After towelling him off we headed to Home Depot where we struck out on finding a new budget-friendly faucet. Saige, however, found something to add to her Christmas wishlist...
We went to Liquidation World (the Vernon store is ahh-mazing) and found the $300 Moen faucet from Home Depot for just $70!! Oh how I live for bargains... like the $130 pair of curtains I scored from a Fabricland clearance bin for $45 - let's just say I'm going to bed one happy (albeit sick) lady.

Kent FaulconKent Faulcon, an actor/writer/director who appears regularly in leading and supporting television and film roles, enjoys a career that provides him with the best of all worlds: the opportunity to work with the most recognized actors and directors in the biggest films in the business and the freedom to work on smaller projects he cares about. Faulcon is a versatile and classically trained Shakespearean actor who has been seen in memorable films like War of the Worlds, Men in Black and Die Hard: With A Vengeance.
As a familiar face on stage and the small screen, Faulcon has had lead and supporting roles in Bones, 24, CSI Miami, NCIS, Criminal Minds, Love That Girl, Boston Legal, Shark, Desperate Housewives and Girlfriends. He�s enjoyed recurring roles on Lincoln Heights, Showtime�s Soul Food series, Charmed, Joan of Arcadia and, more recently, Days of Our Lives. His stage credits include playing Orlando in the L.A. Shakespeare Festival�s As You Like It and Don Pedro in
Faulcon has always found writing and directing to be complementary to his work as an actor. His latest project, Sister�s Keeper (with Eric Roberts and Denise Boutt�), is a crowd-pleasing action-drama he wrote and directed and in which he starred. The story of a hardened assassin assigned to kill a beautiful small-town teacher was recently released nationally and internationally on DVD.
Faulcon has produced, directed, and sometimes starred in several short film projects, including Whiteline, Love on Ave. A and Karma. His one-act play Eleventh Hour of the Dinosaur was featured as a staged reading at Playwrights� Horizons in New York City, where Faulcon was a member of the theater�s African-American Writers Unit. His screenplay Reel Men, about the life of film great Oscar Micheaux, received thunderous praise at its staged reading (performed by Delroy Lindo and Lisa Gay Hamilton) at The Nuyorican Poets Caf� in New York. The script was later optioned by a major studio.

Tips for creating a stronger bond
Everyone intuitively knows that the loving connection between mum and baby is special. But did you know that the effects of bonding can benefit your baby not only today but also well into the future? For this reason, it's important to understand the ins and outs of bonding. That's why we've worked together with our baby care experts to compile a list of tips to help you enrich the bonding experience.
Tip #2. Bonding is as simple as seeing eye to eye
Research says: frequent eye contact is a key indicator of a baby who's gaining confidence. In adults, making direct eye contact is a sign of security and engagement. This is no different for your infant. As the bond between you and your baby grows, you may notice that she gazes at you more often, which is a sign of her growing trust and confidence in you. Don't worry if she looks away; babies need time to process the information that they're seeing. So it's perfectly healthy and normal for her to break her gazes from time to time, in order for her to understand what she's taking in.

Will there be any changes in services at post offices under the just-started 10-year process of privatizing the postal system?
There may be few big changes in the initial stage. But individual investors will at least have to rethink where they should put their money because privatization deprives postal savings of the myth of safety backed by the government, analysts say.
Japan Post, the public postal service company, was split Monday into four firms under a holding company as the first step in the privatization process. The four units are in charge of mail delivery, postal savings, insurance and over-the-counter services.
For mail delivery, postage rates will remain unchanged. Sending a regular postcard costs ¥50, while sending a sealed letter costs ¥80.
But it has become easier to change postage rates, with only advance notice to the internal affairs and communications minister required, compared with the old requirement of approval from the minister.
One of the changes with the start of the privatization process is hikes in remittance commission rates due to the imposition of stamp taxes, which had not been imposed during the days of the public corporation.
Remittance commissions at post offices for payments of utility charges had been ¥30 regardless of the amount. Under the new system, commissions for transferring ¥30,000 or more in utility payments, for example, come to ¥240.
Commissions for the remittance of relatively small sums using money orders have risen to ¥100, up from ¥10.
In addition to postal savings and insurance policies, some post offices may sell products offered by other private insurers and sell daily goods.
One of the four new firms, Japan Post Network Co., in charge of managing counter services at 24,000 post offices nationwide, plans to sell car accident and cancer insurance policies at post offices in Tokyo and surrounding areas.
Japan Post Bank has taken over all ordinary postal savings accounts from Japan Post, which had been the world's biggest financial institution, with more than ¥300 trillion in assets in the form of postal savings and insurance contracts.
The new bank can no longer promise a government guarantee for repayment of all deposits.
Instead, Japan Post Bank, like other private-sector banks, has joined the government-backed deposit insurance system, under which repayments of up to ¥10 million in principal plus interest are guaranteed per depositor.
Fixed-amount and installment postal savings accounts opened before the start of privatization were transferred to a newly created government-backed entity, with their repayments fully guaranteed.
The agency has also taken over all postal insurance contracts concluded before the start of privatization. The guarantee for payments of insurance money under those contracts will remain until they mature or are canceled.
Aside from these changes, some analysts say, a crucial change is occurring concerning how individual investors should think about measures to manage their assets.
Japan Post had attracted a huge amount of money as investors had considered it the safest financial institution in Japan, with repayment guaranteed by the government.
Conservative investors had almost blindly turned to their local post offices for a place where their money could be kept safely, analysts say.
The huge network of post offices was also helpful in soliciting depositors and insurance policyholders in less-populated rural areas.
Now that the government assurances have been eliminated, "people will increasingly be required to think more seriously about asset management," said Nobutomo Watanabe, senior economist at Norinchukin Research Institute.

These days, restaurants seem to come and go with surprising frequency, so there's something to be said about being able to eat in a restaurant that has survived decades or even centuries. Dining in a restaurant that's almost as old as the city it's in and that was once frequented by Henri III, Napoleon, or Hemingway is something to write home about.
See Old School Eats: Dining at the Oldest Restaurants in Europe Slideshow
From St. Peter Stiftskeller in Salzburg, Austria, which has served diners since the year 803, to a quintuplet of restaurants from the 18th century, The Daily Meal has compiled a list of some of Europe's oldest restaurants.
Restaurants like Rules Restaurant in London and La Tour d'Argent in Paris have not only literally stood the test of time, through wars and tough economic times, but they have also survived the modern opinions and tastes of diners. Even though some of these restaurants have had to move locations, they have still managed to preserve their original ambience and ensure exquisite culinary experiences.

text: NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- As U.S. equities continue to show signs of weakness due to fears of crippling debt in emerging Europe and a possible hiccup in the economic recovery, many have turned to alternative regions, in particularly Asia, to seek returns.When speaking of Asia, the first nation to come to mind is China, but there are many more nations that are likely to continue to outperform. As a region, Asia has drawn attention due to its large growth rates and its ability to emerge out of the global recession with a V-shaped recovery. Take Hong Kong, for example, whose economy grew at a seasonally adjusted 3.3% in the second quarter of the year and is benefiting from China's stellar growth. The region has been able to pull itself up by its boot straps mainly due to fiscal stimulus plans, which accounted for nearly 4% of GDP, higher than any other region of the world. Government stimulus packages have been successful in Asian nations due to low consumer debt and a high propensity to save. This way of life has lead these nations to further develop and enable incomes to rise, which will likely cause the domestic demand for goods and services to increase as well. In fact, demand from domestic consumption is expected to add nearly 7% to the growth rate of the smaller emerging nations of Asia. To add to the region's attractiveness, most nations have kept unemployment rates relatively tame. Many big technology companies are increasing capital-expenditure projections and the International Monetary Fund has openly stated that it expects the region as a whole to continue to grow.

NEW YORK – Softbank Corp. is in talks with Deutsche Telekom AG over buying T-Mobile US Inc., as the Japanese firm looks for alternatives to enter the U.S. wireless market if its deal with Sprint Nextel Corp. falls apart, Reuters reported.
Softbank still hopes to complete the deal with Sprint, the third-largest U.S. mobile carrier, and is looking at the possible transaction for T-Mobile, the No. 4 carrier in the United States, only as "Plan B," the report said Friday, citing three separate sources.
The company's talks with Deutsche Telekom, which owns a 74 percent stake in T-Mobile, have intensified in recent weeks after U.S. satellite TV provider Dish Network Corp. lodged a $25.5 billion (¥2.5 trillion) counterbid in April, seeking to trump Softbank's $20.1 billion offer last October for 70 percent of Sprint.
Sprint shareholders are scheduled to meet Wednesday to decide on the two rival offers.

World Fibers Demand
This paper analyses the world demand for fibers using the system-wide approach with three dimension—product X space X time. We investigate to what extent differences in international consumption patterns of fibers can be explained by differences in incomes and prices faced by different consumers. A novel approach to cross-country consumption comparisons is employed to avoid the troublesome problem of what exchange rates to use when converting data into a common currency unit. We use data from the ten largest consuming countries to estimate demand systems and then examine how they perform in predicting consumption patterns in a large number of out-of-sample countries.

It mattered not that the opponents were the Houston Astros, the dregs of major-league baseball. The Toronto Blue Jays are no great shakes themselves these days and they needed a win, desperately.
With veteran left-handed pitcher Mark Buehrle working in his typically let's-get-it-over-with fashion, the Blue Jays (46-55) finally managed to snap a season-high seven-game losing streak with a 4-0 victory over the Astros (34-67) Thursday night at Rogers Centre.
Buehrle, now 6-7 on the year, was at his best, mixing his speeds and keeping his pitches low in working his first complete game of the season, allowing just two Houston hits.
He was toying with a no-hitter through four innings before that was broken up with two outs in the fifth when Justin Maxwell rapped a solid single to centre.
Buehrle literally crashed the manager's post-game press conference afterward, already showered and dressed. Seems he was off to catch country star Tim McGraw, who was playing nearby at the Molson Amphitheatre.
He was asked if that was why he was so efficient with his pitches, so he wouldn't be late.
"Yeah, I was thinking that out there on the mound," he retorted.
Buehrle's performance was certainly music to the Blue Jays' ears, even if it came at the expense of the sorry Astros.
"I'm sure there's going to be a lot of people saying that obviously this was the worst team in baseball and record-wise they're not very good," Buehrle said. "In my mind they're still big-league hitters. And if you make a mistake they're going to make you pay for it."
The Blue Jays took a 1-0 lead into the seventh inning, where they scored three runs to break open the tight game, the key hit a two-run single by Maicer Izturis.
While the Astros are on pace to lose 100 games for the third consecutive season, the Blue Jays felt no remorse in piling on the team that sports the worst record in MLB. While their playoff hopes are almost surely shot, the Blue Jays are also in danger of rendering themselves irrelevant on the Toronto sports scene heading into the final two months of the schedule.
That would mean dwindling crowds and diminished profits, something team owner Rogers Communications would not appreciate after its off-season spending spree in an attempt to strengthen the roster.
The 34-year-old Buehrle was pin-point sharp from the outset, requiring a stingy nine pitches to retire the side in order in the first inning, including two strikeouts.
He would strike out the side in the second and on the night register nine punch-outs, a season best.
It was hoped that a 10-game home stand to kick off MLB's second half following the all-star festivities would be just the elixir the Blue Jays required to ignite their postseason hopes.
Somebody must have messed with the mix.
The home stand has proven to be an unmitigated disaster after the Blue Jays got swept away by the Tampa Bay Rays and then the Los Angeles Dodgers, their losing streak having reached a season-high seven games before the arrival Thursday night of the lowly Astros.
After the four-game set with the Astros ends on Sunday, the Blue Jays will head out on the road for a 10-game road swing that will see them play the Oakland Athletics, the Los Angeles Angels and the Seattle Mariners.
With the way things have been unfolding at home at Rogers Centre of late for the Blue Jays, you would have thought that Toronto manager John Gibbons is looking forward to the get-away.
Gibbons insists that is not the case.
"Coming into this home stand, we'd really picked it up at home, we were playing pretty good," he said. "And you're usually always better at home. West Coast trips are never easy, I don't care how good you are. I don't know if that's necessarily a cure-all."
Before the start of the current home stand, the Blue Jays were sporting a decent 25-21 record in front of the hometown fans.
The Blue Jays confirmed on Thursday what general manager Alex Anthopoulos hinted strongly at the day before – that starter Brandon Morrow's season is essentially over.
Another MRI on a lingering right forearm issue that has kept him sidelined since late May has revealed that the brittle pitcher is suffering from an entrapped radial nerve. The diagnosis was confirmed after Morrow paid a visit to well-known orthopedic surgeon Dr. James Andrews.
Morrow has been told to stop throwing for at least six weeks, which would take him into the first week of September. At that point there would be less than a month remaining in the regular-season schedule, meaning it would be unlikely Morrow would be able to get him back into pitching shape to rejoin the Blue Jays.
And a day after Anthopoulos told reporters that the team enjoyed the flexibility that Brett Lawrie could provide them if he becomes both proficient at second and third base, Gibbons said the experiment is over.
From here on in, Gibbons said that Lawrie will be used primarily at third, where he has seen the overwhelming majority of his playing time.
Gibbons said he made the decision on Wednesday after Lawrie made a couple of dazzling defensive plays with his glove while playing third.
"I'm dumb, I'm not stupid," Gibbons remarked.Report Typo/Error

Australia made light work of their 99-run target in Friday's second women's T20 International against England, scoring 3-99 with 29 balls to spare.
No.3 Meg Lanning added a hard-hitting 42 off 28 deliveries to her 78 not out in Australia's loss in Wednesday's opening game in Hobart.
Lanning was brilliantly caught at mid-on by Lydia Greenway off the bowling of Georgia Elwiss at 2-94 and Jess Cameron was bowled for a second-ball duck as Australia stumbled following a 69-run stand for the second wicket between Lanning and Alyssa Healy.
But the loss of two wickets in three deliveries was only a hiccup for the Aussies as Healy finished unbeaten on 37, squaring the three-match series at one-all with one game to play in Sydney on Sunday.
Earlier, teenager Holly Ferling claimed 2-14 to help restrict England to a modest total of 6-98.
After her unbeaten 92 in Wednesday's game one, skipper Charlotte Edwards was the only member of England's top five to reach 20. Edwards fell for 28 with the score on 5-62 as spinner Erin Osborne accepted a sharp return catch.
Ferling had given the home side the perfect start, bowling Danielle Wyatt for a duck in the opening over after the batter failed to keep out a yorker. Pace bowler Ferling, 18, also removed the dangerous Sarah Taylor who was bowled for eight.
Arran Brindle was unbeaten on a run-a-ball 26 and her sixth-wicket stand of 35 with Amy Jones (14) was the highest partnership of the England innings.
England had already retained the Ashes after taking an unassailable overall points lead with their win in the first T20 clash.
Australia on Friday ruled out Jodie Fields (finger) and Sarah Coyte (thigh strain) for game three.
The Aussies are determined to win the T20 series to make a statement to their rivals before the World T20 in Bangladesh in March.
Ferling was named player of the match. ''Holly Ferling is our strike bowler so we thought we'd use her straight up and it worked perfectly,'' Lanning said.
■ Star Sri Lankan paceman Lasith Malinga has been granted permission to return to the Melbourne Stars line-up in time for their Big Bash League semi-final against the Hobart Hurricanes.
Sri Lanka Cricket had ordered Malinga home to take part in a training camp, causing him to miss the concluding round-robin clash against the Perth Scorchers.
But even if the Stars beat the Hurricanes on Tuesday, Malinga will not be able to play in the BBL final, as SLC has insisted he return home to continue preparations for a coming series against Bangladesh. Melbourne Stars CEO Clint Cooper said he was grateful for the co-operation from Sri Lankan officials.

Infinite descending chain
Given a set S with a partial order ≤, an infinite descending chain is an infinite, strictly decreasing sequence of elements x1 > x2 > ... > xn > ...
As an example, in the set of integers, the chain −1, −2, −3, ... is an infinite descending chain, but there exists no infinite descending chain on the natural numbers, as every chain of natural numbers has a minimal element.
If a partially ordered set does not possess any infinite descending chains, it is said then, that it satisfies the descending chain condition. Assuming the axiom of choice, the descending chain condition on a partially ordered set is equivalent to requiring that the corresponding strict order is well-founded. A stronger condition, that there be no infinite descending chains and no infinite antichains, defines the well-quasi-orderings. A totally ordered set without infinite descending chains is called well-ordered.

By Jeff Mason
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama waded into the politically treacherous gun control debate on Sunday, calling for reform of rules to prevent attacks like the one that wounded an Arizona congresswoman two months ago.
Obama, in an opinion piece published in the Arizona Daily Star, said some 2,000 people had perished from gun violence in the short time since a gunman in Tucson killed six people and shot Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in the head.
"Every single day, America is robbed of more futures. It has awful consequences for our society. And as a society, we have a responsibility to do everything we can to put a stop to it," he wrote.
Obama said he believed the U.S. Constitution's second amendment guaranteed a citizen's right to bear arms.
Sensitive to accusations that he favors broad limitations on gun use, Obama emphasized that his administration had expanded gun owners' rights, allowing them to carry guns in national parks and wildlife refuges, for example.
Gun control is a divisive issue in U.S. politics that some voters use as a litmus test to determine their support for political candidates. Democrats are traditionally viewed as favoring stricter limitations while Republicans are viewed as supporting policies friendlier to gun owners.
Obama, a Democrat, said it was time to move beyond that divide. "I believe that if common sense prevails, we can get beyond wedge issues and stale political debates to find a sensible, intelligent way to make the United States of America a safer, stronger place," he wrote.
"I'm willing to bet that responsible, law-abiding gun owners agree that we should be able to keep an irresponsible, law-breaking few -- dangerous criminals and fugitives, for example -- from getting their hands on a gun."
Obama's comments could be aimed at shaping an inevitable discussion on guns in the 2012 presidential campaign.
Potential Republican candidates are vying for their party's presidential nomination and the issue of guns -- as in previous years -- is likely to feature among the list of topics debated in that hard-fought contest.
Obama called for "sound and effective" steps to prevent lawbreakers from obtaining guns. A system of criminal background checks must be better implemented and made more efficient, he said.
"We should provide an instant, accurate, comprehensive and consistent system for background checks to (gun) sellers who want to do the right thing, and make sure that criminals can't escape it," he wrote.
Obama said he hoped the Tucson shootings could spark a national discussion on preventing gun violence.
"Most gun-control advocates know that most gun owners are responsible citizens. Most gun owners know that the word 'commonsense' isn't a code word for 'confiscation,'" he wrote.
Jared Loughner, 22, has been charged with the January 8 shootings. He pleaded not guilty to an expanded 49-count indictment in federal court in Tucson on Wednesday.
Obama referred to the shooter without naming him.
"A man our Army rejected as unfit for service; a man one of our colleges deemed too unstable for studies; a man apparently bent on violence, was able to walk into a store and buy a gun," Obama wrote.

District land going to borough
The gift of more than 18 acres from the West Jefferson Hills School District will allow Jefferson Hills Borough to move forward with plans for a new public works garage and salt storage center.
Yet, before they handed off the property for a $1 transfer and essential gift, school board members wanted to learn more about the planned structure and ensure it would not affect district functions.
"Obviously we're concerned about the physical appearance, as well as the physical location," said school board President Anthony Angotti, noting that the public works facilities are set to be built near the borough offices on Old Clairton Road and near Jefferson Elementary.
Board members, in an 8-0 vote last week, approved the formal transfer of a parcel of land to Jefferson Hills Borough along Old Clairton Road behind Jefferson Elementary School to be used for the building of a public works garage.
Board Vice President Shauna D'Alessandro was absent.
The district will not assume any costs from the deed transfer and other title changes, said solicitor Lisa Colautti. There also is a provision in the deed that if the municipality stops using the land for borough purposes, then the land would revert back to the district, she said.
The project to build a new public works facility in Jefferson Hills has been in talks for several years and funding recently was secured through a bond issue to finance the approximately $3.5 million project, borough Manager Doug Arndt told school district officials.
"That current garage is very inadequate," said Arndt, also noting that Jefferson Hills currently does not have a salt storage facility, which is planned to be built on the land.
District officials looked at the property and determined they had no use for it, Angotti said.
However, the site is the best one that has been considered for the borough facility, said architect Dave McLean of McLean Architects LLC. Access to the facilities would likely come from Old Clairton Road.
School board members questioned if the project would affect district activities, such as the cross country track behind Jefferson Elementary. They determined there would be no conflict.
The design and permitting process likely will take up to 12 weeks for the public works facility, officials said. Plans are for the structures to be open and operational by 2014.
Meeting change
West Jefferson Hills School Board will hold its October work session on Oct. 15 at 7:30 p.m.
The meeting has been moved due to conflicts with the Pennsylvania School Board Association conference in Hershey.
The meeting will be held at Thomas Jefferson High School, 310 Old Clairton Road, Jefferson Hills.

www.altavistaspain.com Alta Vista Property Spain – Look to Spain for easy holiday entertaining
November 30, 2010 in Altavista Property, www.altavistaspain.com by Michael Liggan
For easy holiday entertaining, all you have to do is look to Spain where tapas — little bites, with big flavor — are practically a national religion.
The tradition of tapas — which means to cover — can be traced to 19th-century Andalusia, Spain's primary sherry producing region, explains Karen Squires, the manager at Santa Fe, New Mexico's The Spanish Table. Restaurant owners and bartenders would place a slice of cheese or piece of jamon (cured ham) on top of a glass to protect it from flies and dust," she said. Soon small bites and sips became a national pastime.
"In Spain, you don't have dinner until about 10 p.m.," Squires said. "In the evening, people go from bar to bar enjoying a glass of sherry and nibbling on tapas. It's a social event, and each bar or restaurant usually has a specialty for which they are known," said Squires, listing examples such as crispy fried croquetas, skewered bites, or even simple flavors like marinated carrots or roasted peppers.
The tradition of tapas can be just as simple to draw upon for at-home holiday entertaining, Squires told members of the Association of Food Journalists, who recently visited the specialty food store as part of its annual conference.
"Just make one or two of your favorite appetizers, then pull the rest off the shelf," she said. Ingredients from bottles, boxes and cans offer flavors in line with the easy-going feel of a tapas bar. Here are a few of Squires' flavor-filled suggestions:
1. Chilled olives » Squires suggests Manzanilla olives stuffed with garlic or lemons, which are a favorite in Spain, although just about any bottle of olives will work for a party. Olives taste best if they are chilled before serving.
2. Wrapped dates » Buy pre-sliced prosciutto or another dry cured ham, and wrap around pitted dates. Secure with a toothpick, and serve at room temperature.
3. Chorizo lollipops » Cut cooked chorizo into bite-size pieces. Spear with toothpicks and place in a serving dish. Meanwhile, combine 1/2 cup water, 1/2 cup sugar and a pinch or saffron in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. When sugar is dissolved and mixture is fairly thick, remove from heat and pour over chorizo in the serving dish.
4. Stuffed piquillo peppers » These slightly sweet, scarlet-colored peppers are served all over Spain, and are a natural for stuffing with meat, seafood or soft cheeses. Squires made a simple filling by mixing one diced Roma tomato with 1 jar of chopped artichoke hearts and 1/3 cup aioli. Piquillo peppers, which are roasted and packed flat in cans and jars, can be found in Italian or Spanish specialty markets.
5. Hummus » This mashed chickpea dip has been a favorite for centuries, and several pre-made brands are available in Utah stores,including the locally made Happy Monkey Hummus. Buy the original flavor and sprinkle it with smoked paprika, or buy one of the flavored offerings such as roasted garlic and tomato or Margarita with peppers, cilantro lime and tequila. Serve this dip with warm pita bread.
6. Marcona almonds » This large, wide, flat almond is sometimes called the "queen of almonds." It's grown in the Catalonia region of Spain and is known for its soft crunch and rich sweet flavor. To give these nuts added flavor, drizzle with a tiny bit of olive oil and toss with paprika, Squires suggests.
7. Skewered bites » Impaling small bites on a stick is one of the easiest and most beloved kind of tapas. They're called banderillas, after the colorful darts used in bullfighting. Experiment with ingredients such as a quartered artichoke heart, a cube of cheese and a cherry tomato; salami, pickled onions and red bell pepper; or the classic Gilda, which is made with Manzanilla olives, guindilla chiles, anchovies and red peppers.
8. Marinated vegetables » Specialty stores have a variety of these bottled offerings, from onions and carrots to asparagus and peppers. Making your own is simple, too.
9. Cheese » The most popular Spanish cheese is Manchego, but this European country creates some outstanding cheeses from buttery Mahon to aged Garrotxa.
10. Bruschetta » Even outside of fresh tomato season, you can serve these toasted baguettes by employing a well-drained can of diced tomatoes.

The 49ers announced they waived Jon Baldwin after less than a year with the team.
Last August, the Niners sent wide receiver A.J. Jenkins to the Chiefs to acquire the former Aliquippa and Pitt star in a trade of two struggling former first-round picks.
The change in scenery didn't help Baldwin, who had three catches in seven games last season.
Bon Jovi writes Bills fans
Jon Bon Jovi hopes he has written a hit with Bills fans in a bid to stem concerns of whether his prospective ownership group plans to buy and potentially relocate the franchise to Toronto.
In a letter published by the Buffalo News on Sunday, Bon Jovi wrote that it's his ownership group's objective "to make the Bills successful in Buffalo." The letter, titled "Why We're Bidding on the Buffalo Bills," marks the first time the New Jersey rocker has publicly discussed his plans regarding the franchise.
The team is for sale after Hall of Fame owner Ralph Wilson died in March.
"There has been a lot of conjecture, so we think it's important to clarify our intentions to the fans of the team and people of Buffalo," Bon Jovi wrote. "I know how much the Bills mean to the people of this region. So I want you to hear this from me: I'm not risking it all to let you down. If we are given the chance to be the next owners of the Buffalo Bills, I promise you that we will bring the same passion that you do every Sunday, every day."
Calling it his intention to "carry on Ralph Wilson's legacy" in Buffalo, Bon Jovi said his group is committed to working with state and local officials and the business community to identify a new stadium site in the region.
At no point in the seven-paragraph letter does Bon Jovi name his two partners or mention they are both from Toronto. His group is rounded out by Larry Tanenbaum, chairman of Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, and the Rogers family, which controls Rogers Communications.
The Toronto group's intentions have been met with skepticism in Buffalo.
Player carted off field
Falcons offensive tackle Terren Jones was carted off the field and taken away in an ambulance after suffering an undisclosed injury.
Jones was motionless and had his eyes closed as he exited. His neck was strapped down upon being placed on the stretcher.
No update was available on Jones' condition.
Jones is considered a long shot to make the 53-man roster.
Chiefs' Berry returns
Pro Bowl safety Eric Berry and starting cornerback Marcus Cooper are practicing again at Chiefs training camp after minor injuries.
Berry missed time with a sore right heel. Cooper tweaked a hamstring.
Linebacker Dezman Moses left Sunday's workout after hurting his elbow.
49ers seeking NT
Quinton Dial put a punishing hit on running back Alfonso Smith late in 11-on-11 work. Tony Jerod-Eddie pounded Jonathan Martin not once but twice, even sending him to his backside.
In their first audition to become San Francisco's starting nose tackle, Dial and Jerod-Eddie each showed off impressive physical strength in the middle of the defensive line Sunday. They have a tough job to replace Glenn Dorsey, who went down with a torn left biceps Friday and will need surgery. While he isn't being ruled out for the entire 2014 season, the recovery is expected to be extensive — perhaps three to four months.
Around the NFL
The Falcons signed safety Tyrell Johnson. ... Titans guard Andy Levitre was removed from the non-football injury list 10 days after an appendectomy.

Submissions from veterans and military connected artists are still being accepted. To be considered, work must be submitted by June 14. Contact the Office of Veterans Services at (970) 351-1403 for details.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale will benefit Student Veterans of America to help fund campus initiatives aimed at increasing student involvement.
"It gives artists a springboard and showcases what veterans can do," said Thomas Gardiner, a military veteran and UNC student who is organizing the event and whose paintings and photography will be a part of the gallery.
Gardiner, who works with the nonprofit art organization "Arts of Valor," also said engaging in the artwork is "therapeutic" and provides an outlet for expression.
Wednesday, June 26, is Bike to Work Day and UNC is hosting a Bike to Work breakfast station from 6-8:30 a.m. in the Judy Farr Alumni Center parking lot. Stop by on your bike for complimentary Einstein Bros. Bagels, Cheba Hut Rice Krispie Bars, fruit, Starbuck's coffee and water.
There'll also be some give-aways courtesy of Cheba Hut and Carl's Jr.
If you don't bike to work but want to help at the station, contact Kim Gray, 970-351-1966.

Portions of sidewalk in several locations around campus are being removed and replaced to minimize potential safety hazards. Please be cautious traveling across campus; there'll be many sections of sidewalk at various stages of repair. The contractor started on the north side of campus and will be working as quickly as possible so the impact on any one location should be limited to only a few days.
