Perfect for Two-Dog Home
One dog is a Chow who really sheds. The other is a mixed breed with hair that finds its way into fabric. This lightweight vacuum works for both. Much easier than getting out big vac.Read More
Outstanding vacuum
We love this vacuum so much, we purchased another one for our upstairs. It's light and powerful, easy to clean and very reliable. Very convenient to put it into its charging station. Best vacuum we've ever had, especially as we have dogs who shed all the time!Read More
Love everything about it. Most definitely will Purchase again.Read More
A Must-Have
I have three long-haired Himalayan cats, so having this is has been a boon. Lightweight, great suction, good on carpets and hardwood. Great tool and worth the cost.Read More
Not worth the money. Takes to long to charge, for the actual run time. And now it don't seem to work at all now. It seems to be the power button.Read More

One of the best purchase ever
We were a bit skeptical about getting this dyson against the other good ones(I would call them bulkier as compared to the dc44), but since overstock had a free return , we decided to try it. We live in a 1000 sqft apartment and space is always a constrain, so the fact that you can hook this up on a wall was appealing. So after almost a month of using this vaccum, we are very pleased with the purchase. Here are the only points which bothered us initially, but not anymore - 1. The actual time the battery runs - 20 mins(8 minutes in full power) - We certainly felt that 5 mins more on top of 20 would have made a big difference; however we noticed that since it is light and cordless, its easier to move around and we complete almost 90% of the apartment in about 20 mins. Now, since we vacuum about twice a week, there's not much dirt in the apartment and most of the times we finish our apartment in less than 20 mins. I would say that the ease of maneuvering this unit makes up for the less time. 2. The vacuum head is not wide enough - being a small vacuum we were initially feeling that the head being small, we take more time to cover a small area as against the wider head vacuums. However with use we noticed that the weight and the ease of maneuvering the vacuum (and being cordless) is much more efficient that the wider vacuum heads we had before. This is not a concern now. 3. You need to keep the button pressed for the unit to stay on - This was a big pain. But not a big concern after you get used to it. 4. Frequent clean up of the vacuum head - the only thing which still bothers me is that all the hair gets entangled(rolls up on the vacuum brush) in the vacuum brush after every clean. This does mean that I have to clean up the vacuum head brush after every run, but the benefits of the vacuum make up for it. I also think that this is the case with all the vacuums, but most of the vacuums do not make it so easy as dyson to keep your vacuum clean. I do not need to talk all the good things about dyson since they keep up to the reputation. But hopefully the above helps you with the purchase.Read More
nice vacuum would buy again
I use this vac for pet hair on hardwood floors and to pick up the mess from my firewood. Vac does both with ease. With two dogs this vac gets used almost daily and the work gets done because it is so much easier than breaking out the big vac. Batery life has not been a trouble as I can do my entire Cape 1st floor in a basic clean up on a charge. Easilly lasts 15 min on standard suction about half that on boost mode but I really dont need the extra suction unless its in a corner that got wet like in the bathroom. I am glad I bought this over the 35 model. Attachments are quality and both brushes work very well and its easy to get the long hairs that wrap around the power brush off. Be carefull on cleanout you press the button and the bottom drops open and you need to be aware dust can dump out if you are not over the trash but once you do it once you will figure it out. I am very glad I spent the money on this unit it is pricey but I get my use out of it. My only grip is the paint on the tube handle scratches very easily and it was scratched up after the first use but it is a tool not a display piece but why paint it if it is not super durable.Read More
I wish I could give zero stars
I purchased this product in Dec of 2012. Right out of the box, it didn't work. It will run for a few seconds or maybe a couple of minutes and then die. I contacted Overstock, as I have always had very good luck with their customer service, and was told to contact the manufacturer. I have been dealing with Dyson for seven months and the vacuum still doesn't work. After seven months of trying parts that they mail me and a variety of things over the phone, Dyson is asking me to box it up and send it to them so that they can repair it. This should take about a month to return to me. I don't think it's reasonable that I should have to settle for a repaired defective product rather than a product that worked from the beginning. I paid full price and should receive what I paid for. I contacted Overstock a few minutes ago and they won't help because it's past the 30 day return policy. I have never been disappointed in Overstock's customer service until now. I can't seem to get anyone to do the right thing which is to replace the defective product with one that works.Read More
excellent for hard-wood floors
This vacuum can indeed serve as a whole-house vacuum provided you have a small house/apt and mostly hard-surface floors (with some small amount of rugs and carpeting). Before purchasing I looked at many sites for reviews of this product before purchasing, and was specifically looking for the capability of this vacuum to serve as a whole-house vacuum for hardwood floors. I found a few that said yes, and purchased it based on that assumption. This vacuum does in-fact have the power and capacity to clean an entire small house (floors, furniture, etc) if you have mostly hard-surface floors. I have a 1450 sq. foot house with 80-90% hardwood and tile floors with 2 area rugs. It has the same suction power on hard surfaces as my 12-amp Bissel upright and plenty of battery life for an entire house. On carpet, you really do need to use the "Max Power" option, which uses double the battery power, so this vacuum would not be sufficient to clean an entire house if much of it was carpeted surfaces. It is GREAT as a spot cleaner either way, but at $300-400, it's really expensive for that use. It is great to be able to grab it off the wall and clean anywhere and everywhere without finding a plug behind furniture and having to move the cord in each room. Additionally, it fits UNDER all of my furniture, so I don't have to move furniture to clean under it or to find a plug behind it. It does have a very small capacity, so expect to empty if often if you have a lot of pet hair. On the trigger issue that many people complain about, I don't really have an issue with holding it down during use, but it could definitely be a "softer" trigger with less force required. I tied a rubber band around it to reduce the force necessary to activate it, which I had seen suggested in another review, and this did make it a bit easier, but the rubber band broke later and I haven't bothered to replace it.Read More
I love this machine. If you are looking for something to suck up dirt, crumbs, pet hair, etc. it is perfect. I have a large house so I wouldn't depend on it to do the whole thing but it probably would work well for a small house or apartment. I needed it for spot cleaning and it does a great job.Read More

Thank you for your question. The tools that this product comes with are a mini motorized tool, crevice tool, combination accessory tool, and remote charger. Please let me know if you have any further questions, and thank you for shopping with us! Have a great day! -Rachel
"do you get the 5 year Dyson warranty like on there website ?"
Hello, warriorintegity. Hope your day is going well. This item comes with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty. Thank you for shopping with us and please feel free to contact us again with any further questions.
This vacuum has a 2 year warranty on their site. The larger vacuums have 5 year warranties.
"Can you charge the battery off of the machine so that you might have a back up battery on charge all the time?"
Docking Station-Stores the machine and attachments when not in use. The battery can be charged while the machine is in the docking station, or separately from the machine.
Yes, I was very pleased to see this, but I have not had a need for a second battery in my use yet.
"does this vacuum work on carpet?"
Yes, this works on carpet.
Yes, and quite well, but you do need to have the "Max Power" function turned on (which ups the motor revs and suction power), which drains battery life at about 2x the normal rate, so if you have a lot of carpet you'll run out of battery in about half the time. This is fine if you are just cleaning 1 room at a time or if most of your house is hard surfaces. This vacuum could probably only clean 1-2 fully carpeted rooms on a single charge.

Ratings for Dr. Arnold H. Perman
I have been a patient with Dr. Perman since the early stages of his career. I have since referred nearly my entire firm to his care and have am always thanked for the recommendation. He is cautious, caring and genuine and has remained humble. As an international traveler always on call Dr. Perman has helped me many times in a pinch going so far as seeing me after hours and always accommodating my hectic schedule.
we have been patients since 2004 and despite relocating we continue to see dr. perman at 6 month intervals when we fly in for family gatherings. everything about this dental office is professional and clean. he is honest and to the point (no bs factor) and the fees are reasonable
This office is run quite well. The staff is very friendly and upbeat. We absolutely adored Dr. Perman and felt that both he and the hygienists were very thorough and did an excellent job at explaining everything to us. I was surprised by the recommendations made at my cleaning and am glad that I now know how to better care for my teeth and gums.
I visited 201 Dental Care recently after I noticed my gums had become inflamed. I was a little bit shocked when they told me I had periodontal disease. The hygienist showed me deep pockets in my gums on an iPad and explained the treatments needed. (gross debridement, scaling and root planing, and then a routine cleaning and polishing of my teeth). The entire process was very pleasant (with the help of laughing gas : D). Dr. Perman is extremely thorough and has a nice way of making you feel good he comes in the room.
Dr. Perman is amazing! I went to his office for the first time after after I chipped my front tooth. It was 6:30 at night and they still saw me that day. He bonded the tooth and you would never know it was once chipped. My former dentist in San Diego referred me to an oral surgeon to pull my wisdom teeth so I asked Dr. Perman for a local surgeon. He gave me the name of an oral surgeon in Fort Lee and then mentioned that he could take them out right then. I was apprehensive considering my former dentist could not do it. I kid you not the amount of time between being numbed and having the teeth out was no more than a minute!!! I was still waiting to feel something after they were out! Surreal! I just met him but cant say enough good things about Dr. Perman!
I have invested a lot of $ into having the perfect smile (not to mention just about everything else!!) and can honestly say it was worth every penny. I showed doctor Perman the teeth I wanted in various magazines and what can I say now I get to see them in the mirror!!! The procedures themselves were painless (porcelain veneers, white fillings, an all porcelain crown, and gum restructuring) and though not cheap I was very satisfied with the overall value and personal attention I received
Dr. Perman is a great Dentist! As a nervous patient I find just talking to him to be therapeutic. His staff are great as well and go they extra-mile to accommodate. I would definitely recommend this dentist and especially to nervous patients.
I am very pleased with my experience at Dr. Permans office. I visited the office to have a few old crowns repaired after being referred by my brother-in-law. I must say I was very impressed with the office staff and their ability to accommodate my busy schedule and needs (diabetic). Dr. Perman has a very casual approach and unlike other dentists he is remarkably nonaggressive when it comes down to "selling" treatment plans. I admired his demeanor and trusted his judgement which prompted me to go ahead and get the work done. To my surprise he completed the restorations in one visit (approximately an hour) and had me on my way with absolutely no discomfort. I know where I'll be going for my future dental needs : D
One of the best dentists out there. He was honest and very helpful. One thing that was important to me is that he was not rushing and he was very careful and gentle while working. Found my new dentist. :)
Dr. Perman is an exceptional dentist. The level of craftsmanship he exhibits in designing his veneers is impeccable (everything from color to shape and size) My orthodontist and his colleagues told me that my veneers were the best they have seen and wanted to know what doctor was responsible for mine, so they could recommend him to their patients!

How to set a budget and stick to it
How to set a budget and stick to it. Nowadays, I know, it is not easy keeping your hard earned cash in your wallet, even when you're trying to be responsible, right? I mean, we've all got a variety of "need-to-have" expenses, like, uh, like a mortgage, car repairs, and college tuition to pay for. I mean, never mind the, the "like-to-have" expenses that, you know, you want to treat yourself to once in awhile. You know, like a, like a new pair of cool high tops or those fancy designer jeans.
So, I'm sure your question is, "How do you keep all those things from chipping away at your bank account?" Well, no matter who you are or what you're spending your money on, you could probably use a budget. Especially when the average household spends 80% of its annual income on a range of necessary expenditures, you know, which includes almost 60% on housing, uh, food, gas, and insurance alone.
Now that's a lot to pay for, right? I mean, so then, how can you ensure being as smart with your money as you can be? Well, by creating a budget. It's the tool you need to help you stretch your paycheck as far as it'll go. And now all it takes is just a little bit of discipline, planning, and most importantly, prioritization.
While creating a budget may seem overwhelming at first - I know, believe me - uh, the time you spend putting it together, that's going to certainly be worth it when the process of paying your monthly bills becomes a little less stressful. So where do you start? Well, setting a goal is always a good place to begin. You know, it gives you something to shoot for. And then, of course, uh, making a plan, that's going to set you in motion.
So here's how to do that in six easy steps. Step one: know your income. Seems simple enough, right? But knowing how much you can spend each month starts with knowing how much you take home. That means you can't build your budget based on your salary. It, it should be based on your net income. So, get out some pay stubs and see what you're clearing after taxes, insurance, 401K contributions, and, uh, other stuff like that.
Step two: determine your basic expenses. Figure out what your fixed expenses are every month. You know, and now, these are the things that don't fluctuate or change dramatically through the year, like, um, you know, like rent or mortgage payments, uh, good old car payments and insurance, uh, student loans.
Uh, this is also a good time to make sure you have some kind of safety net to help pay for these expenses in case of an emergency, like, um, let's say, you need a new water heater or your car needs a new transmission. There you go. So, if you have a safety net established, great. If not, there happens to be a video on this site called, "Easy Ways To Save On Everyday Expenses." And that can help you find some extra money to put towards that savings.
Step three: determine expenses that vary each month. These are the things that change, uh, based on usage, like your, uh, your phone and other utilities, uh, as well as your grocery bill, that could change. You could also add up
all those flexible expenses, like clothes, you know, jeans, uh, restaurant meals, entertainment costs. These are the costs that you have control over.
To test your knowledge on what you've learned so far, please name which two of these expenses are examples of fixed expenses?
1. Car payments
2. Student loans
3. Groceries
4. Cable
If you guessed "car payments" and "student loans" you are correct.
The next question is: Which two of these expenses are examples of variable expenses?
1. Cell phone
2. Mortgage
3. Groceries
4. Car insurance
If you guessed "cell phone" and "groceries" you are correct.
Step four: determine what's really important. When it comes to creating a budget that works, you have to take a really hard look at what you feel is truly necessary. As much as you like to think you can't live without the latest gadget, this type of expense should go into the "like-to-have" category.
So, if - so if you want to find the fluff in your budget, start digging into your variable expenses and rank what's most important to you. I mean, do you really need unlimited texting on your cell phone? If not, get rid of it. Are you watching all the 437 channels of cable? No? Downgrade to basic. For more simple tips that, you know, can help you save, check out that video I mentioned, "Easy Ways To Save On Everyday Expenses," uh, 'cause if you follow some of the tips there, you could save hundreds of dollars each year. Yes, hundreds.
Step five, follow your spending and review monthly. You want to give your budget a fighting chance, right? So just keep an eye on your wallet, and especially those credit cards, to make sure you're spending within limits throughout the month. It's easy to forget - right? - and even easier for the small things to start adding up, so keep on it.
Step six, keep track. Find a way that works for you to keep track of your expenses. Uh, you know, that can mean the old pen and paper, a spreadsheet, or one of those new fancy, fun budgeting apps. A lot of banks have these as part of their online banking. They are easy to find and use, so be sure to look for them. Then, you just balance your budget. Keep your income information current and track your actual expenses monthly. After a few months, you're going to start to see patterns and figure out where you can streamline and make adjustments.
Now, if you don't want to go it alone, if you'd like a little company, there are some sites all over the Internet to help you analyze what have you coming in and what you're spending. And if you're the pen and paper type like myself, or even the computer spreadsheet type, uh, check the links at the end of the video in the "What To Do Now" section, where you can access a handy budget worksheet. It's great.
To test your knowledge on what you've learned, please name one good place to find tools to help you keep track of your money.
1. Newspaper
2. Library
3. Online
4. Local bank branch
If you guessed "online" you are correct.
The next question is: Many people recommend reviewing your expenses how often?Source: www.bettermoneyhabits.com

Oil States Looks Better as a REIT: Sterne Agee
Oil States International (OIS) was today downgraded by Sterne Agee to Neutral from Buy, with Stephen Gengaro and Grant Fox writing that if the company converts to a REIT the stock could pop as much as 41% from today's price:
We believe that investors buying OIS shares at current levels are effectively betting on a material change on the company's corporate structure, including the potential conversion to a REIT structure for OIS' Accommodations segment. As we have detailed on prior reports, we do believe this is a possible outcome, but we are not willing to handicap the potential at this time. Using both EV/EBITDA multiples and free cash flow yield to value the Accommodations business under a REIT structure, we believe OIS shares could be worth $130-145 per share if a change in the corporate structure occurs.
Earlier this month, this blog covered David Einhorn's presentation at the Sohn Investing Conference where he went even further, arguing that the company's stock could be worth $155 a share if it were to convert to REIT status.
But such a switch isn't a sure thing: As Gengaro and Fox write, there are risks, including:
1) whether a REIT structure is possible and whether that structure is compatible with management's growth initiatives; 2) the specific assets that are REIT compliant and the details on maintenance capital spending, capital structure and possible tax leakage; 3) which existing REITs are most comparable for valuation purposes; and 4) the timing of a possible change and whether REITs would still be as appealing when a change occurred.
At the latest, the stock is down 0.6%, trading at just above $102 a share.

This week, state officials will make a decision that could affect New Mexico's groundwater forever.
Almost a year ago, the New Mexico Environment Department proposed a new rule related to copper mine pollution and groundwater. The state, mining companies, scientists, community members, and environmental advocates spent seven months hammering out a draft rule.
Just before releasing it to the public, however, NMED's top attorney changed it to include provisions friendly to Freeport McMoRan Copper & Gold, Inc., which owns three copper mines in New Mexico. As SFR reported in May: "Rather than prescribing and enforcing how mines must keep waste from seeping into groundwater, the new rule allows NMED to defer to mining companies themselves."
Last spring, the state's Water Quality Control Commission heard weeks of testimony about the rule—and it's scheduled to make its decision on Tuesday.
In case rules and regulations set you snoozing, here are five reasons SFR readers should pay heed to the state's proposed copper rules:
1. According to the New Mexico Attorney General's Office and environmental groups opposing the rule, as proposed by NMED, the copper rule violates the state's 1978 Water Quality Act, which protects the state's streams, rivers, and lakes—as well as the underground networks of water that most communities in New Mexico rely upon for drinking water.
2. Prior to coming to NMED in 2011, general counsel Ryan Flynn—the person who changed the draft rule in 2012 before it went public—was an associate attorney at Modrall Sperling, a law firm that counts Freeport among its clients. Flynn's no longer the top lawyer at the department: In April 2013, Gov. Martinez named him the new Cabinet Secretary-designee of NMED.
3. During last spring's hearings on the rule, NMED tried to block Bill Olson, the former bureau chief it had hired to write the rule, from testifying before the commission. Olson, who spent 25 years working on groundwater issues and is a former commissioner himself, ended up testifying as a private citizen. So who did NMED line up to defend the rule? An acting director who wasn't involved in the rule-making process and a private contractor it paid $75,000 to act as an expert witness.
4. NMED's proposed rule overturns the state's earlier victory over Freeport. More than a decade ago, Freeport and NMED began duking it out over the Tyrone Mine, which includes eight open pits and 2,800 acres of leach ore stockpiles and waste rock piles. NMED disagreed with Freeport's claim that since water beneath the mine would never be used for drinking water, it could pollute there with impunity.
Finally, in 2010, they reached an

Internationally acclaimed Russian baritone Dmitri Hvorostovsky was born and studied in
Krasnoyarsk, Siberia. In 1989, he won the prestigious BBC Cardiff Singer of the World
competition, at which he received acclaim for his cultivated voice, innate sense of musical
line, and natural legato. After his Western operatic debut at the Opéra de Nice in
Tchaikovsky's The Queen of Spades, his career exploded, resulting in regular
engagements at the world's major opera houses and appearances at renowned international
festivals, including the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden; the Metropolitan Opera; Opéra
national de Paris; Bavarian State Opera; Salzburger Festspiele; Teatro alla Scala; Vienna
State Opera; and Lyric Opera of Chicago.
A celebrated recitalist in demand in every corner of the globe-from the Far East to the
Middle East, from Australia to South America-Mr. Hvorostovsky has appeared at such venues
as London's Wigmore Hall and Queen's Hall, Moscow's Tchaikovsky Conservatory, Barcelona's
Liceu, Tokyo's Suntory Hall, and Vienna's Musikverein. He regularly performs in concert
with such orchestras as the New York and Rotterdam philharmonics, working with leading
conductors who include James Levine, Bernard Haitink, Claudio Abbado, Lorin Maazel, Zubin
Mehta, Yuri Termirkanov, and Valery Gergiev.
Mr. Hvorostovsky retains a strong musical and personal contact with Russia. He became the
first opera singer to give a solo concert with orchestra and chorus in Moscow's Red Square;
this concert was televised in more than 25 countries. He has gone on to sing a number of
prestigious concerts in Moscow as a part of his own special series, Dmitri Hvorostovsky
and Friends, featuring such celebrated artists as Renée Fleming, Jonas Kaufmann,
Marcello Giordani, Sumi Jo, and Sondra Radvanovsky. In 2005, Mr. Hvorostovsky gave a
historic tour of Russian cities at the invitation of President Vladimir Putin, singing for
a crowd of hundreds of thousands to commemorate the soldiers of the Second World War. Mr.
Hvorostovsky now annually tours the cities of Russia and Eastern Europe.
Mr. Hvorostovsky's extensive discography spans recitals and complete operas. He has also
starred in Don Giovanni Unmasked, an award-winning film
released by Rhombus Media based on the Mozart opera, in which he tackles the dual roles of
Don Giovanni and Leporello.
Recently, Mr. Hvorostovsky has established a new collaboration with popular Russian
composer Igor Krutoy, performing successful concerts that feature Mr. Krutoy's work in
Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kiev, and New York. Recent recordings include In This Moonlit
Night (songs by Tchaikovsky, Mussorgsky, and Taneyev) and Rachmaninov
Romances, both with pianist Ivari Ilja; a DVD starring Mr. Hvorostovsky alongside
Renée Fleming in a film set in St. Petersburg; and a CD and DVD recording of Verdi opera
scenes with Sondra Radvanovsky and the Philharmonia of Russia conducted by Constantine
Orbelian. All recordings have been met with much critical acclaim.
The 2012-2013 season includes appearances at the Metropolitan Opera, Royal Opera House in
Covent Garden, Vienna State Opera, Santa Cecilia Rome, Arena di Verona, and Teatro Regio di
Turin; as well as various concerts and recitals in Europe and Russia (including a
Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Friends series in St. Petersburg and Moscow), and
further recordings.
Ivari Ilja was born in Tallinn, Estonia. He studied the piano at the Tallinn State
Conservatory with Laine Mets, and at the Moscow Tchaikovsky Conservatory with Vera
Gornostayeva and Sergey Dorensky.
Mr. Ilja is an internationally recognized accompanist and ensemble musician. His
collaborations with renowned singers Dmitri Hvorostovsky, Irina Arkhipova, Maria Guleghina,
and Elena Zaremba have been particularly successful. As pianist for these singers, he has
performed on many concert stages around the world, including Alice Tully Hall, Avery Fisher
Hall, Kennedy Center, Davies Symphony Hall, La Scala, Queen Elizabeth Hall, Wigmore Hall,
Bolshoi Theatre, Shostakovich Philharmonic Hall, Suntory Hall, Hamburg State Opera,
Deutsche Oper Berlin, Musikverein, and Mozarteum. Since 2003, he has repeatedly toured with
Mr. Hvorostovsky in the US, Europe, Hong Kong, and Japan.
Mr. Ilja has also performed solo recitals in France, the UK, Germany, Estonia, Russia,
Sweden, and Finland. He has been a soloist with the Estonian National Symphony Orchestra,
Moscow Symphony Orchestra, and St. Petersburg Symphony Orchestra under conductors Veronika
Dudarova, Stephen Gunzenhauser, Eri Klas, Leo Krämer, Theodore Kuchar, Peeter Lilje, Roman
Matsov, Andres Mustonen, Hannu Norjanen, Vello Pähn, Urs Schneider, and Arvo Volmer.
Specifically with the Estonian National Symphony, he has performed as a soloist on several
international tours to Germany, Sweden, Latvia, and Lithuania.
Immediately following this evening's concert, Ondine recording artists Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Ivari Ilja will sign copies of their latest recordings in the Rose Museum on the First Tier level.
CDs are available for purchase in the Carnegie Hall Shop (open one hour prior to the concert and during intermission). CDs are also available in the main lobby during intermission and in the Rose Museum after the concert.
Please note that Mr. Hvorostovsky and Mr. Ilja will only sign CDs.

(Fod additional information, please see Principals say Cuties fued won't impact supplies)Behind the smiling public face of Cuties clementines, a multi-million dollar feud has been festering for months.
Consumers bought 75 million boxes of the clementines bearing the Cuties character in the 2011-12 season, but its use on juice products proved to be the final wedge in what had become a strained relationship between its two owners.
The disagreements between Stewart Resnick, owner of Paramount Citrus, Delano, Calif., and Berne Evans, owner of Sun Pacific, Pasadena, Calif., became public March 21 when Paramount filed a trademark infringement case in federal court against Califia Farms, a Pasadena, Calif., juice company.
Califia is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Pacific. According to court documents, Paramount planned to join Sun Pacific in the juice and concentrate operation. Paramount provided $1 million up front to Sun Pacific for the development of the juice business. Sun Pacific gave that money back after Paramount pulled out of the deal, according to court documents.
Sun Pacific proceeded with the Califia Farms juice operation, which uses culled citrus from the Cuties orchards. Paramount contended in the trademark case that Califia did not have rights to the Cuties trademarks or name, even though it is owned by Sun Pacific, which jointly owns the trademarks with Paramount.
Paramount withdrew the complaint in April, after Sun Pacific asked the court to enforce an arbitration agreement it has had with Paramount for several years.
The trademark dispute is now pending before the American Arbitration Association, as is a previously filed dispute regarding which company will pack, market and sell the Cuties for the 2012-14 seasons, according to court documents.
Since Oct. 1, 2008, the Cuties brand of the easy-peel citrus fruit has been grown, packed, shipped and marketed by Paramount Citrus and Sun Pacific under an agreement that runs through Sept. 30, 2014.
The two companies have had equal ownership of the Cuties trademarks since 2001 in an arrangement described as "extremely unusual," according to R. Polk Wagner, a professor of trademark law at the University of Pennsylvania, who was quoted by the Wall Street Journal in a story about the dispute.
Resnick and Evans began collaborating on clementines in 1999.
According to the Sun Pacific website, Evans started developing a specific clementine variety after a 1990 freeze hit California citrus growers. In 1996, Evans signed a deal with a nursery to multiply clementine trees and sell them exclusively to him.
Evans and Resnick forged a business arrangement that generated great profit for Paramount and Sun Pacific, but the relationship has become increasingly strained, Evans told the Wall Street Journal.
Part of the strain is related to aggressive and expensive advertising campaigns that saw the companies spend $20 million during the latest season, according to the Journal article, published July 14. Evans told The Journal he believes the fruit is so good it doesn't require extravagant promotion.
After Resnick backed out of the juice deal, he tried to take over all of the packing of Paramount's clementines and afourers for 2012-14, instead of using Sun Pacific's packing operation as the 2008 agreement requires, according to court documents.
Resnick also told Evans he wants to market and sell not only Paramount's clementines and afourers, but also all of Sun Pacific's clementines and afourers for the 2012-14 seasons, according to court documents.

Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson' chief of staff, who was placed on administrative leave last month over an email he wrote criticizing a gay staff member, is back on the job, The Dallas Morning News reports today.
Rep. Johnson, D-Dallas, placed her chief of staff, Murat Gokcigdem, on leave after the Washington Blade, an LGBT newspaper in the capital, obtained a copy of an email Gokcigdem wrote about Christopher Crowe in 2010. Crowe died last year from a staph infection, but at the time he was one of four finalists to become special assistant to the undersecretary of budget and tax in the Treasury Department.
Crowe, who worked in Johnson's office and headed the LGBT Congressional Staff Association, sought a letter of recommendation from Gokcigdem for the Treasury Department post. In response to Crowe's request, Gokcigdem drafted an email to Johnson that he mistakenly sent to Crowe, according to the Blade. Gokcigdem's email said Crowe was underqualified for the Treasury Department and suggested he was only being considered by the White House post because he was gay.
"It is my personal belief that he has contacts there," Gokcigdem wrote. "And they, as a group watching and supporting each other if you know what I mean."
The Morning News reports that Johnson's office won't say for how long Gokcigdem was suspended, whether he was paid during that time, or what the findings of the investigation were. The newspaper suggests that the leak of Gokcigdem's email to the Blade was designed to stir opposition to Johnson prior to the Democratic Primary, and Gokcigdem's suspension was her effort to tamp down the issue until after the election. Johnson won a landslide victory over two challengers, Taj Clayton and Barbara Mallory Caraway.
The story quotes the deputy executive director of Log Cabin Republicans of Dallas, who suggests that Johnson's office is sweeping the matter under the rug.
"Investigations tend to provide cover for a lot of facts that one doesn't want to talk to," Christian Berle told The Morning News. "It is unfortunately emblematic of a situation many staffers on the Hill are dealing with. … They're not able to show up at work as themselves."
Gokcigdem's suspension led indirectly to the revelation that Rep. Johnson was running misleading advertisements in Dallas Voice, saying she had a perfect record on LGBT issues for 20 years when in fact she voted in favor of the anti-gay Defense of Marriage Act in 1996.
Johnson's office declined repeated requests for an interview with the Voice, the only LGBT newspaper in her district, to discuss the ads and explain why she voted for DOMA but is now a sponsor of the bill to repeal it.

On December 3, 1963, at age 62, when most folks are thinking about retirement, Louis Armstrong recorded the sprightly "Hello, Dolly!," the title song for a Broadway show.
Thus began a six year-long series of recordings that brought arguably most important 20th Century musician back into the limelight and, in fact, gave him his greatest recording successes ever.The single of "Hello, Dolly!" supplanted The Beatles as #1 on the Pop charts (his first #1!) and was #1 for nine weeks on the Adult Contemporary charts. The Dolly album soared to #1 for 6 weeks on Billboard's Top 200 and was certified gold.
Over the next two years Louis recorded tracks for the Mame album, resulting in a pair of Top 10 Adult Contemporary hits -- "So Long Dearie" and the title track.
Then we have the remarkable "What A Wonderful World." Recorded in 1967, the heartfelt single was a big hit in Europe, but only reached #12 on the U.S. Adult Contemporary chart. However, after prominent placement in the 1988 movie Good Morning Vietnam, the single climbed into the Top 40 and the album was certified gold.
Finally, in 1969, Louis recorded "We Have All The Time In The World," the theme song for the next James Bond epic flick, On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
This new Hip-O Select double CD, Hello, Louis! The Hit Years 1963 to 1969, brings together these recordings - originally on Kapp, Mercury, ABC-Paramount and EMI -- as a joyous celebration of a great artist's return to the fore. It collects all three hit albums, presenting the Mame LP on CD for the first time, adding in "The Three Of Us," recorded for the album but only previously released in Europe. The second disc also features two sides recorded in 1968 for Kapp, "Life Of The Party" b/w "The Kinda Love Song," both previously unreleased on album - and as the music on this collection shows, the title of the bonus track is most appropriate: Louis Armstrong's music is still the life of any party.

Dodgers' spending spree not over yet
When the Dodgers engineered their blockbuster swap with the Red Sox in late August, their new owners made it clear that money was no object in their attempt to build a winning team. In acquiring Adrian Gonzalez, Carl Crawford, Josh Beckett and Nick Punto, the team took on over $270 million in salary commitments from 2013 through 2018, none of it at a discount. That money was in addition to the $31.5 million in future salary they accepted when they acquired Hanley Ramirez in late July.
Already, the Dodgers' commitments for the coming season are nearing $200 million — a threshold previously breached by only the Yankees — and based upon a number of reports that have emerged since the kickoff of the free agent season, they're prepared to go even higher. Where they differ from the Yankees, who have exceeded a $200 million payroll in each of the past five seasons and in six of the past eight, is the apparent haphazardness of their plans. It's as though general manager Ned Colletti is firing wads of cash out of a t-shirt cannon into a crowd of free agents, unconcerned about where it lands.
That appears to be particularly true when it comes to the team's outfield. Recall that last November, Los Angeles signed Matt Kemp to an eight-year, $160 million extension, a move that made some sense given his age, and looked shrewd in light of the $200 million-plus contracts that Albert Pujols, Prince Fielder and Joey Votto signed over the next six months. In June, the team granted pending free agent Andre Ethier a five-year, $85 million extension that looked sane relative to the seven-year, $126 million Jayson Werth contract but otherwise appeared to be an overpay, particularly given Ethier's struggles against left-handed pitching, which haven't ceased; he hit .222/.276/.330 in a career-high 239 plate appearances against them this year. Later that month, the Dodgers overreacted to the impending rule change restricting international spending — and to years of their own scrimping in that market under former owner Frank McCourt — by signing Yasiel Puig to a seven-year, $42 million deal, the most money ever committed to a Cuban defector, and more money than either Yoenis Cespedes or Jorge Soler received from the A's and Cubs, respectively, a few months earlier.
Then came the blockbuster, which added $102.5 million worth of Crawford's future salary (through 2017) to the payroll, and closed down a potential position shift for any of the four outfielders via the addition of first baseman Gonzalez, himself due $127 million through 2018. But because Crawford is recuperating from late August Tommy John surgery and might not be ready to start the season, the team has reportedly expressed interest in heavily-sought free agent Torii Hunter via a two-year deal, a move that suggests the Dodgers would shop Ethier, who won't be easy to move given his deal. Hunter is coming off a strong season in which he batted .313/.365/.451 with 16 homers for the Angels, but he's 37 years old, and also being pursued by the Yankees, Red Sox, Tigers, Phillies and Mariners, all of whom have more financial flexibility. Exactly how interested the Dodgers are remains unclear; USA Today's Bob Nightengale says L.A. is "aggressively pursuing" Hunter, but the Los Angeles Times' Dylan Hernandez and Mike DiGiovanna say that the team's level of interest is "overstated," in part because Hunter isn't interested in becoming a fourth outfielder at this stage.
Elsewhere, the team is said to be "targeting" Kevin Youkilis — between him and Hunter, the choice of words makes it sound as though Colletti is hunting players for sport, right out of some dark bloodsport fantasy about the überwealthy — to add to their collection of third base options. Already the Dodgers have Ramirez, Juan Uribe ($8 million via the final year of a disastrous three-year, $21 million deal, including his buyout of a 2014 option), Jerry Hairston ($3.75 million in the second year of a two-year, $6 million deal — one of several backloaded pacts Colletti doled out last winter) and Punto ($1.5 million in the second year of a two-year, $3 million deal) under contract, not to mention Luis Cruz, who as a 28-year-old rookie hit a surprisingly solid .297/.322/.431 in 296 plate appearances while bumping Ramirez back to shortstop, where he's inadequate afield. Youkilis is coming off a down year in which he set career lows with a .235/.336/.409 line and missed three weeks with a lower back issue; he has averaged just 115 games over the past three seasons amid back, abdominal and thumb injuries. Colletti may be interested in Youkilis as a backup for Ramirez or Cruz (which of the two they favor at the hot corner is unclear) and Gonzalez, but with teams like the White Sox, Phillies and Indians also interested and more clearly able to offer him a starting job, it's not clear that Dodger dollars can woo him.
Over the weekend, Los Angeles reportedly won the rights to Ryu Hyun-jin, a 25-year-old lefty who has spent the past seven seasons pitching in the Korean Baseball Organization. Their $25.7 million bid is merely a posting fee, the same process via which the Red Sox and Rangers won the rights to Daisuke Matsuzaka in 2006 and Yu Darvish in 2011, respectively. The Dodgers now have 30 days to work out a contract with Ryu, who will presumably command a pricey long-term deal. That he's being represented by Scott Boras is yet another hint that he won't come cheap.
Should L.A. sign Ryu, he'll join a collection of starters that also includes Clayton Kershaw (with whom they're working on an extension beyond the two-year, $19 million deal that ends after the 2013 season), Josh Beckett (due $34 million over the next two seasons), Chad Billingsley (due $28 million over the next two seasons, and trying to rehab his way out of a potential Tommy John surgery that would wipe out his 2013 season), Ted Lilly (due $13.2 million in the final year of his three-year, $33 million deal, and coming off a season-ending shoulder injury), Chris Capuano (due $7 million, including 2014 buyout, in the final year of a two-year, $10 million deal) and Aaron Harang (due $9 million, including 2014 buyout, in the final year of a two-year, $12 million deal). If that's the case, either Harang or Capuano is likely to be dealt, though the Dodgers would have to eat salary to move either.
If anyone needed further evidence that the Dodgers would spend crazy money this winter, they need only look to the three-year, $22.5 million extension to which Colletti signed Brandon League a couple weeks ago, a deal that includes a vesting option worth a possible $7.5 to $9 million based upon games finished in 2014-2015. Never mind that Kenley Jansen saved 25 games last year, or that Javy Guerra saved 21 the year before; with both coming off offseason surgeries (a procedure to correct cardiac arrhythmia for the former, a shoulder cleanup for the latter), the belt-and-suspenders-minded Colletti wants a Proven Closer in the fold to go with his seven highly-paid starters.at least when it comes to payroll a GM with questionable tastes

Plan and book your holiday with British Airways, online or by phone. Enjoy all these great benefits:
A popular resort with skiers for over 30 years, Sauze d'Oulx has a pretty, traffic-free village at its centre. Sauze d'Oulx is known for its lively après ski, which starts by the slopes and continues until the discos and nightclubs close in the small hours of the morning.
Ski-buses serve the lifts that run from the outer village to the highest peak of Col Basset. From here you overlook the nearby town of Sestriere. The long, tree-lined slopes above Sauze d'Oulx are particularly suited to intermediate skiers and snowboarders. This is the biggest ski resort in the Milky Way ski area and offers splendid cruising terrain and a diverse aprés ski scene. Skiers and snowboarders looking to cover lots of terrain, and party into the night, will find Sauze d'Oulx to be a great choice.
Sauze d' Oulx is 90 km (approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes transfer) from Turin airport.
Sauze d' Oulx is 170 km (approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes transfer) from Lyon airport.
The main nursery area is located at Sportinia, a short lift ride away from Sauze d'Oulx. Easy progression slopes are few and far between here, yet brave beginners will find that some of the red runs are gentler than on other mountains. It is easy to find ski schools offering English-speaking tutors in Sauze d'Oulx.
Confident intermediates will love Sauze d'Oulx. Skiers and snowboarders are bound to enjoy the high, undulating terrain and the peaceful cruising at the top of the mountain. The long pistes down to Jouvenceaux offer gentle, picturesque cruising on smooth slopes - this is perfect intermediate territory.
There are a few groomed pistes that experts will enjoy - the slopes below Moncrons for example, but advanced skiers and snowboarders will need to head off-piste to stay challenged. A guide can show you some exhilarating skiing in Sauze d'Oulx. The Double Black terrain park, in the Rio Nero bowl, offers a selection of jumps, spines and rails for freestyle skiers and snowboarders to express themselves on.
For non-skiing children, Sauze d'Oulx has a village nursery, La Cinciarella, which is open during the day and can also be booked for evenings. Local ski schools also offer group lessons for children, and finding English-speaking tutors is not a problem. Sauze d'Oulx's lively après ski scene means that the town can be noisy late into the night, but otherwise this is a good resort for families.
Après ski in Sauze d'Oulx has a reputation for being lively and vibrant. You can quite literally party around the clock - and many visitors do just that. However, Sauze d'Oulx also has a more genteel aspect. There are plenty of places to spend a relaxing evening in. Il Capricorno, on the slopes, offers the chance to re-fuel after a long day of skiing and restaurants such as Il Cantun, Peccora Nera and Godfather are held in particularly high regard.

'No bad omen associated with 12-12-12'
Published: 12th December 2012 08:42 AM |
Last Updated: 12th December 2012 08:42 AM | A+A A- |
Going by the Mayan calendar, 12-12-12 is marked as the end of a civilization, giving birth to an entirely new scheme of things which could not be comprehended or forecasted when the calendar was scripted.
Right from the time 2011 faded away giving birth to this controversial year, talks and rumours had been taking rounds about the end of the world. But religion prevails where man fails to understand.
In many of the religions across the world, the scriptures depict this period as a period of enrichment after the defeat of light over darkness.
Majority of the numerologists in the city however had a different view about this unique date.
Just the contemplation of the numbers and meanings will put you into the frequencies that lie within their magic.
R U Rajan, a practising numerologist based in Kadavanthara says that contrary to popular belief, the day 12-12-12 is very special because the number 1 denotes the sun and 2 denotes the moon.
"The combination gives birth to the number 3 - which symbolises the planet Jupiter-the God of all planets.
"So, it is pretty natural that deliveries are being postponed and weddings are being charted for this day which carries a deep meaning besides it's fancy attraction," he adds.
However, P B Rajesh, a numerologist in Kochi put forward an interesting preposition. "The number 666 is widely considered to be the number of the devil across various religions. 12-12-12 is a direct multiple of that. It can also mean that evil may strike," he says.
Let alone the ideologists, the common people are just looking at the Wednesday as a special date considering it's fancy quotient and it certainly would be a busy day at wedding halls, maternity wards and let's not forget the lovers who are waiting for this fancy day to propose. Leaving aside the spiritual and fancy angle to this special day, one thing stands for sure.
12-12-12 is the last of the repeating series in this century, with the next one coming up in January 2101 when the first of January would read 01-01-01.
Chances are slim that we will live to tell a tale. Anyways savouring our luck for being born at this time of the century and be part of certain wonderful days definitely seems like the best thing to do.

Tottenham came from behind to beat 10-man Dnipro 3-1 and advance to the last 16 of the Europa League as Emmanuel Adebayor stuck twice to see off the spirited Ukrainians.
Having lost 1-0 in Dnipropetrovsk last week, Tim Sherwood's side were further up against it when Roman Zozulya headed the visitors ahead shortly after the break before rallying to win 3-2 on aggregate.
But the tie swung back in their favour in 13 second-half minutes as Christian Eriksen levelled on the night before Zozulya received a red card for a headbutt on Jan Vertonghen, who seemed to go down easily.
Spurs soon made light work of turning around the tie as Adebayor struck twice in four minutes to set up a mouth-watering tie with Benfica.
In a week where no Barclays Premier League team had won since both the Champions League and Europa League returned from their winter hiatus, Spurs had struggled to create chances before the interval, with Jermain Defoe's half-time farewell to the club looking ill-timed.
But it appeared to act as a wake-up call to his former team-mates and, once Dnipro had been reduced to 10 men there was only ever one likely winner.
Yevhen Konoplyanka was once more Dnipro's main threat as the match-winner in Ukraine last week tormented Kyle Naughton again.
Roberto Soldado was lucky to remain on the pitch after he caught Artem Fedetskiy with an elbow, having looked around before swinging his arm.
Matheus, who was felled for the late penalty in Ukraine last week, went down inside the box under pressure from Michael Dawson but Gautier rightly waved away his protests.
Sandro fired well over as the first half drew to a close and Spurs continued to toil in their attacking ventures.
The returning Brazilian was then cautioned on the stroke of half-time after a high challenge on Ruslan Rotan.
Defoe appeared at the break for an emotional farewell as Tottenham's exit from Europe also appeared to be closing in as the second half got under way.
Andros Townsend fouled the busy Konoplyanka and Zozulya nodded home the resulting free-kick with Hugo Lloris only able to get a despairing hand to the ball.
Mousa Dembele came close to an equaliser but could only hit the loose ball into the ground and see it bounce onto the roof of Denys Boyko's goal.
Soldado then had the ball in the back of the net moments later but he was adjudged offside from Eriksen's through-ball, but the equalising goal was not long in coming.
Eriksen bent a free-kick out of the reach of Boyko after Adebayor had been fouled on the edge of the Dnipro box and the strike acted as a catalyst to springboard Spurs into the next round.
The hosts, however, were living dangerously and Konoplyanka struck a post with a curling effort, with Fedetskiy firing the rebound high and wide.
Zozulya's moment of madness came just after the hour as the forward headbutted Vertonghen - the merest of touches prompting a theatrical fall - as the Dnipro players formed a wall to defend an impending Spurs set-piece.
A fracas ensued but referee Gautier had seen the indiscretion and dismissed Zozulya without hesitation.
It took less than two minutes for Tottenham to make their one-man advantage count as Adebayor turned Eriksen's low cross past Boyko.
The comeback was complete three minutes later as Adebayor raced clear of the defence before poking his second goal of the evening.
Soldado's hunt for a first goal of 2014 continued as he turned over a difficult chance from close range, with Spurs attempting to kill off the tie.
The expensive summer signing was given a great reception by the home fans when replaced by Harry Kane late on but if it were not for the goals of strike partner Adebayor, Spurs would have been heading out of the Europa League at the hands of former manager Juande Ramos.
Only a late free-kick from Konoplyanka threatened to take Dnipro through on away goals but Spurs saw out five minutes of additional time to seal the win.

AMD's 7000-series graphics cards which feature the Graphics Core Next architecture (GCN) have been suffering from microstuttering issues since their release – that's where some frames take a significantly longer time to render than the surrounding frames – leading to visibly jerky animation when it happens. The Tech Report have discovered that in their latency-focused gaming tests, an AMD HD 7950 could actually be bested by an NVIDIA GTX 660 Ti due to microstuttering, despite the AMD card having significantly more powerful hardware. They even posted a slow motion video of this effect in action.
Well, it turns out that the root cause is due to drivers not being full optimized for the 7000-series cards, which were released a year ago in December 2011! AMD's David Baumann contacted The Tech Report and explained that the drivers don't work as well as they could with GCN-based graphics cards, since memory management isn't being used optimally with this architecture:
"Additionally, when we switched from the old VLIW architecture to the GCN core there was a significant updates to all parts of the driver was needed – although not really spoken about the entire memory management on GCN is different to prior GPU's and the initial software management for that was primarily driven by schedule and in the meantime we've been rewriting it again and we have discovered that the new version has also improved frame latency in a number of cases so we are accelerating the QA and implementation of that."
So, how can AMD let a significant problem like this linger for so long? Surely the drivers should be fully optimised for a new GPU architecture at its release, with only a few inevitable bugs and glitches here and there to sort out for the next driver release? Well, let's hope that AMD finally get this problem sorted out very soon as long-running issues like this aren't good for competitiveness and can make your customers lose confidence in your products. After all the whole point of spending a lot of money on a high end PC with a powerful CPU and graphics card is to get rid of annoying stutters and dropped frames!
So a specific portion of AMD's driver code needs some additional attention in order to perform optimally on the year-old GCN architecture—and AMD has accelerated an overhaul of it after discovering that the new revision can alleviate frame latency issues. Wow.

Blue Jays move Dickey up, push McGowan back
TORONTO -- R.A. Dickey will swap his next start with Dustin McGowan, bumping the ace's next appearance ahead one day.
He was originally slated to start against Baltimore on Friday, but will now pitch the day before.
Manager John Gibbons said the rotation shuffle allows the Blue Jays to avoid fielding hard-throwing pitchers -- McGowan and Brandon Morrow -- in back-to-back starts. It also puts a proven veteran arm between two pitchers that are still in the process of proving they can get deep into games.
"Those are two guys we're watching a little bit. You put Dickey in the middle and he can eat come innings," said Gibbons before the Blue Jays' Tuesday night game against the Astros. "We decided this a few days ago, but we've been thinking about it all along ... to break those two guys up."
An extra day of rest could be beneficial for McGowan, who was hit hard in Toronto's home opener against the Yankees April 4, when he allowed four runs on eight hits over 2 2/3 innings. McGowan was tipping pitches in his first outing -- a problem he's since been working to fix with pitching coach Pete Walker. Another day off could also give McGowan some more time to make sure that issue is resolved.
"[They've] been trying to eliminate that," said Gibbons. "He's aware of it, now it's just correcting it. It's the position of his hands, basically just being conscious of it. It's tough in the full competition of a game sometimes ... but normally it's not that tough to adjust."

Ever had frog?
What about duck tongue or lion fish?
These items and more are delicacies organizers of the first Chinese Cuisine Festival: A Bite of Los Angeles hope to introduce to foodies during its 10-day celebration of China's tastiest dishes, which kicks off Friday today and runs through March 16.
"We contacted restaurants we believe represent the best China has to offer," said Jeff Ye of Icon Union, the largest Chinese student marketing platform in California that hosts several events throughout the year.
Thirteen restaurants in the San Gabriel Valley plan to offer special dishes as well as items off a "secret menu," including Chengdu Taste in Alhambra; Duck House in Monterey Park; Wok B.B.Q. in Monterey Park; Three Travellers Bone Hot Pot in Monterey Park; Hong Yei Restaurant in San Gabriel; Dong Ting Chun in San Gabriel; Little Sheep Mongolian Hot Pot in San Gabriel; Hunan Style Restaurant in San Gabriel; Beijing Restaurant in San Gabriel; Spicy City in San Gabriel; Beijing Tasty House in Rosemead; Haige Star in Rowland Heights and Zheng's Fusion in Rowland Heights.
The restaurants listed are not for the timid. Much like what is boasted on Travel Channel's "Bizarre Foods," the menus will not be toned down. Spicy bullfrogs are among the menu items at Travellers Bone Hot Pot while a special called "frog with gluttonous" and a new turtle dish are expected to be served at Dong Ting Chun.
"We want to introduce our best dishes to people who may have never been here before," said Dong Ting Chun owner Lily Cai through a translator.
The Chinese Cuisine Festival comes off the heels of dineLA's winter season and during a time when other local areas like Long Beach and the Inland Empire are gearing up for their restaurant weeks. But what makes the San Gabriel Valley foodie fest unique is its focus on the authentic Chinese culinary experience that diners can get without having to fly out of LAX.
The festival aims to educate diners on the eight regional cuisines of China as well as highlight the already popular Beijing and Shanghai cuisines many Americans have grown to love, Ye said.
"There's a long of history of tradition with Chinese food and several different styles of cooking ... It's really hard to explain how diverse the styles are and the ingredient combinations," he said, laughing. "You really have to just try the restaurants and taste for yourself."

This has been a bit of an education for Luck, but that'll happen from time to time when you start a rookie QB. Still shown some flashes, as well as a lot of things that need coaching. Yeah.
Just wish it hadn't been the Jets. Goodness, do I hate the Jets.
"And Tottenham do not know what hit them...well I can tell you, it's Theo Walcott!"
"And it's Tony Adams put through by Steve Bould, WOULD YOU BELIEVE IT?! That...sums it all up."
There's the game. Can't say it was a good one (at all).
Never half-a** two things. Whole-a** one thing.
He doesn't like Irsay for releasing Peyton and he doesn't like Luck.
That commercial is incredibly offensive. I'm amazed no one stopped that from airing.
I still don't understand why luck is forcing it there? I know he is a rookie but damn.
I'm starting to think we may go winless on the road this season. Gotta bounce back next week.
sounds to me like he dislikes the Colts, if he doesn't like their decisions then fine, that doesn't mean that he has to hate everything that the Colts do, if he knew even the slightest thing about football he would know Luck can be another Peyton if he develops correctly
That sucks
If I was a part of our o-line, I wouldn't be able to look myself in the mirror. Embarassing.
Not a great first game to watch for the season.
Yeah, some people just have to make themselves stand out. Gives them self-worth or something.
He's just a bitter old man with nothing better in his life than to try to annoy people on an anonymous message board. I kind of feel sorry for him.
Don't ask Marvin Harrison what he did during the bye week. "Batman never told where the Bat Cave is," he explained.
He is a troll. Just ignore him. He posts dissenting opinions to annoy people for his own enjoyment. I have no idea why he hasn't been banned yet, as he adds no useful discourse, insinuates he would like to see players injured, and ruins entire threads with people responding to him.
still believe looking at the rest of our schedule if we can pull off a couple of upsets we may be able to go to the playoffs

Let's keep this on-topic. If OlBlu annoys you, put him on ignore and move on. That's why the function exists.
So, how 'bout them Colts...?
The problem with that is, with a relatively rookie team, you're going to lose a few games you shouldn't as well. Can't take any game for granted at this stage.
