Great end to the week, last week….as Mom and all her hard working girls hit the town for a few apre-work beverages! The amazing weather continues this week, so get yourself down here for a gourmet grilled cheese lunch experience!
Tag Archives: Robson Street
Mom's Pickle
Dave Gerry of CTV News stopped by Mom's Grilled Cheese Truck to not talk about grilled cheese, but the pickle garnish! In case you didn't know….Mom serves THE best pickle in town. Great video story, check it out here
Baby Mom
Hey, it's officially warmed up, the summer menu is coming out soon and there is no better place for lunch this week than at Mom's Grilled Cheese Truck! Right in the middle of Vancouver, at Howe and Robson, beside Robson Square and the Vancouver Art Gallery. Get yourself down here and take a wild guess….what year was this picture taken of Mom? Hmmmm, inquiring minds want to know!
Meet Mom, Up Close
For all the regulars who stop by Mom's Grilled Cheese Truck, or the one-timers just checking it out…..getting to know the amazing Mom herself and her cute daughter is part of the grilled cheese experience. Cindy (aka Mom) is all heart and personality, so enjoy getting to see who Mom is at a more personal level, courtesy of Trish Neufeld at Memory Box Movies, capturing life's legacies to share, and preserve for generations to come.
Amazing Grilled Cheese!
Just asked Manny, who stopped by last week for an amazing Baby Daddy grilled cheese, here at Mom's grilled Cheese Truck! No doubt, the weather has turned, spring has unofficially sprung on the West coast. So get yourself down here this week for lunch, we are at Robson and Howe Streets, back-side of the Vancouver Art Gallery beside Robson Square. See you soon
Open Monday – Closed Tuesday
Hot Comfort Food On A Cold Day
Happy New Year! What a great day it is out there today, sunny, the snow capped mountains on the North Shore and Mom's grilled Cheese Truck back on the streets for the first day of 2013. It's a frosty morning and it will be a cold day today, so it is the perfect day to get yourself down to Mom's for a hot grilled cheese sandwich, or maybe Mom's now famous Roasted Tomato Soup topped with basil mascarpone…….or a piping hot large cup of Mom's homemade chili topped with cheddar! Mmmmmmm, hot comfort foods on a cold January day, sounds like the ideal way to start your 2013 off perfectly. See you today for lunch.
Elvis Is In The House
Sunny, highs approaching 30 degrees and blue skies! No better place on earth on a beautiful day than Vancouver……..and it's an ideal day to come down for lunch to Mom's for a grilled cheese. If you feel like something a little different and decadent, why don't you try what a great couple we met from New York City tried, The Fat Elvis! Peanut butter and banana with a sprinkle of smoked sea salt on white. Yes, you too can eat like the King. Check out the King in action in Hawaii in 1973, lay included! Thank you very much.
Road Construction Blues – Look For Us At Howe & Robson
With the warm weather FINALLY back, the line ups at Mom's have gotten a little bigger. With the warm weather, also comes the City of Vancouver summer road construction and repair. Our normal spot is loud, the bang-bang-bang of jack hammers won't stop. The City has our regular parking space closed right now. If we are not there over the next while, please have a look about a dozen parking meters South towards Robson Street.
We were set up there today and it was busy, one of our busiest days ever! As the temperature jumped above 20 today, we served up more and more hot home made organic tomato soup, topped with basil mascarpone. The soup shots for $1.00 were flying quicker than last call shots at 2:00AM with your beer goggles on! Thanks for your continued support everyone!

During the first ten Thrashers seasons, there have been a number of outstanding players that have passed through the organization. Names like Ilya Kovalchuk, Marian Hossa, Marc Savard, Peter Bondra and Dany Heatley come to mind. Regardless of how you might feel about some of them personally, or what kind of bad taste they left in your mouth upon their departure, those names represent some very fine hockey talent.
But what do the names above…and possible the others that might come to your mind… have in common? I mean, besides the fact that they represent the Retention Deficit Disorder that this organ-I-zation has suffered from for the past decade.
Yeah, they are all forwards.
If you put your mind to it, I'm quite sure you could come up with 12 forwards who have played for Atlanta that could comprise a theoretical Thrashers All-Time Offensive Team. Some would be considered more "shoe ins" for the honor than others, but I'm certain the debate would be quite entertaining to say the least.
But something that just might prove to be a skosh more difficult might be trying to find six defensemen that could comprise a Thrashers All-Time Defensive Team. I mean, lets face it folks, the term "fine defensive play" and Atlanta Thrashers have rarely, if ever, been used in the same sentence.
Nonetheless, I am going to challenge you do just that. See if you can come up with six players who have spent a significant amount of time with the Thrashers that you would place on your Thrashers All-Time blueline.
Now first of all, I will take off the list of possibilities the name of Chris Chelios. Yes, this Hall of Fame defenseman "finished" his NHL career as a Thrasher. But we're only talking 7 games here. And even though I enjoyed seeing someone of his talent play in a Thrashers uniform, it's not like those games made much of a difference…except maybe take seven games worth of NHL experience away from Arturs Kulda.
Would you place on that list, say, someone like Nic Havelid? He played in 303 games in Atlanta between 2005 and 2009 and was a +13 during his time here. He chipped in with 10 goals and 72 assists as well. In my mind he would definitely be on that list.
What about Jaroslav Modry? He only spent one season with the Thrashers back in 2005-06. But in 79 games played he notched 38 overall points, though he did finish a –9. To me, he played a key role in what I still think was the best overall team that the Thrashers have ever iced.
Then there is Pavel Kubina. Like Modry, he spent but one year in Atlanta, but he played well while here. He played in 76 games last year and netted 6 goals, 32 assists with an EVEN +/- rating. I would have loved to have seen this guy return for another season or two, but he instead decided to bolt to Tampa Bay.
Toby Enstrom deserves a nod here too, in my opinion. He has yet to miss a single game in all three seasons played…knocking wood…and his 104 career assists is tops for all Thrashers defensemen. He is a +4 during his 246 games, including a +14 showing two season's ago.
Maybe Zach Bogosian has done enough in his first two NHL seasons to wind up on your list of top-six Thrashers defensemen all-time? The third pick in the 2008 draft is a powerful force when he is pushing the puck up-ice. And does Garnet Exelby merit consideration, even if for no other reason than the fact he was such a huge fan favorite? He played in 357 games here… scoring 6 goals, 40 assists but was a –20. In 2005-06 he was a +11 during 75 games.
How about a defenseman who spent five seasons in Thrasherville and only once finished on the negative side of the +/- rating? Not too many out there that can say that. In fact, this defenseman was a +11 having played in 273 games in Thrasher blue, including a +13 effort in 2005-06. He also finished with three 20+ point seasons to boot…87 points overall…and was a part of what were arguably the two best defensive squads in the ten seasons played, 2005-06 and 2006-07. Would he get consideration from you?
Well, I just described Andy Sutton.
…dodging cyber bricks hurled from the blogosphere…
Hey, I'm just offering up the possibilities and asking the questions here.
September 1st, 2010
10:14 am
Havelid, Hnidy, DeVries, Bogosian and Kaberle. To round out the 6 man roster, I'd then hold my nose and vote for a pre-concussion Exelby.
September 1st, 2010
10:17 am
This is the equivalent of trying to pick the prettiest pig, where's the lipstick?
The biggest indictment of Don Waddell's utter and complete inability to build a hockey club is the fact that he was a dman in his playing days (might have made the '80 USA squad if he hadn't broken his leg), but he never signed, drafted, traded for, or retained a single top line defenseman. Never. Some 3/4 guys, some 5/6, and a lot of AHL tweeners and Rumun Ndur's . . . but I'm sure that was the owner's fault, right Sara?
September 1st, 2010
10:30 am
5. The Versus brand gets killed. (Probably not a bad thing)
September 1st, 2010
10:31 am
Joe Friday has his edge back today. Beware!
How about this draft legacy of d-men picked with selections 1-125 prior to the Bogosian and Valabik selections?
Luke Sellars • Ilya Nikulin • Libor Usturnul • Brian Sipotz • Coburn • Grant Lewis • Scott Lehman • James Sharrow • Lane Manson • Chad Denny. Outside of Coburn, the others have played in a total of three NHL games.
That's offensive, not defensive!
September 1st, 2010
10:50 am
Who would you put on Thrashers All-Time Defensive Team?
A player to be named later, much later, like five years from now.
September 1st, 2010
10:51 am
Darnit, Bill! All I read was your headline and my first thought was ANDY SUTTON!! He's a beast and a force to be reckoned with! Then I read your blog and you stole my thunder…thanks alot.
September 1st, 2010
10:55 am
Who is that "future considerations" guy? He played good d huh?
September 1st, 2010
10:56 am
Our defense seems like a revolving door, not just in their play, over the years. So, because I can't think of the 1000 defensemen that have come thru here. I'll go with Toby and Exelby, at the least.
September 1st, 2010
11:01 am
Can we answer this question next year…my head hurts thinking about this. But, other than our current group, the only other guy I can give honorable mention too is Nic Havelid. X will be known for his body checks, but he never was a force in front of his own net and he was still too slow-of-foot even in his pre-concussion days.
September 1st, 2010
11:01 am
You all know I love our team, but the words "Thrashers" and "Defense" go together about as well as the words "Mexican" and "Border Security". I'm sure you've all seen the yellow signs in California on the highways with what looks like a running migrant family… well we've needed our own yellow sign that says "Caution" with a puck between the legs of a goalie.
Hopefully all of the changes in the "Thrashers summer of love" will show that a defensive minded offense and actual honest to goodness defense can hold down the large number of SOG's that we are used to seeing as Thrasher fans… only time will tell…
September 1st, 2010
11:13 am
"Joe Friday has his edge back today. Beware!"
Damn straight, Skippy. So that begs the question, is this a defensive core that can finally turn the corner on this clubs inability to keep a puck out of our end and net?
Freddy Meyer.
See a pairing there we can trot out to shut down Ovechkin and Co? Bogosian and Enstrom going to reign in Crosby and Malkin? Anyone there that can stop a Staal, any Staal, from bull rushing Mason?
We still don't have a true top dpair, our best hope is Bogosian turns into a shut down dman that can eat 28 minutes a night, but that might be a bit optimistic for this year as he's still green and would have to do a 180 after last year.
I think our Achilles heel remains . . .

Looking at it in the light of day sheds a little insight into why Dudley is thinking about Buf at d
September 1st, 2010
11:16 am
R/L – forgot about Hnidy…underrated and under-appreciated in his time here. I shall remove XLB and put Hnidy on my bottom pairing with Hains. In fact, Hartley probably should have played Shane more in 2007 down the stretch when X and Stevie McAwesome were having there difficulties.
Let's hope we'll be listing this six as best all-time D-men in 3 or 4 years:
Bogo / Kulda
Enstrom / Oduya
Hainsey / Zubarev or Postma
Hon Mention: Havelid, Devo
September 1st, 2010
11:16 am
Mostly agree with the nominations. X was good for only a year or so. While not in my top 6, Shane Hnidy had a very good year here. Devries was underatted – solid if unspectacular.
Can I put a vote in for Chris Tamer as "most out of position" D-man in our history?
September 1st, 2010
11:17 am
Joe – don't sleep on Kulda. He's for real.
September 1st, 2010
11:24 am
EX-Thrasher Chris Chelios Retires. What a way to put it. Im sure chelios has such pride in that title.
September 1st, 2010
11:26 am
Ok, pencil in Kulda for Valabik (please!), still have this:
Not re-signing Kubina was a mistake, but if Dudley is looking at this as a build year, I can see not wanting to sign him for too long (did Tampa give him 3?). Coach will be pushing more defensive play from the forwards, and that will help, but no top dpair is going to be our Achilles heel again this year.
September 1st, 2010
11:27 am
Sutton?….SUTTON? Are you people nuts? A guy in the 10th row gave him a head fake and he went for it. What a waste of talent. He is the type of guy that makes me happy that Dudley is looking at hockey IQ as one of the intangibles. All that talent and no head on his shoulders.
September 1st, 2010
11:29 am
JF, Since you didn't mention it, I will assume you forgot to factor in what we think will be a better backchecking group of forwards under Ramsay and Torch. Will this be significant or non-significant in the effectiveness of the team's defense? That remains to be seen but it should be considered.
September 1st, 2010
11:32 am
Red Light, that is what I call just good drafting. We know how to pick some D men!!!!!!!!! I can scout for the Thrashers, please, I'd love that job and I GUARANTEE I can have us pick 2 Dmen in 10 years that would make/play in the NHL!!!!
Tamer!! I loved that guy, nicest guy on the team.
September 1st, 2010
11:33 am
So, to sum up, the Thrasher defense is akin to Mexican border security, they stop a few but most enter and call it their new home.
September 1st, 2010
11:33 am
JF, sorry, I see you did mention defensive forward play as I was typing.
September 1st, 2010
11:35 am
We're getting close to the greatest sports month of the year, October…College and pro football, Baseball, & hockey!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Syracuse RULES. ahahhahhaa

11:40 am
"So, to sum up, the Thrasher defense is akin to Mexican border security, they stop a few but most enter and call it their new home."
Just wait till Bettman files a lawsuit against Dudley to prevent us from playing Chris Pronger after Dudley makes the trade for him to finally get the job done for us . . .
September 1st, 2010
11:46 am
Thanks for summing up my analogy Stroz, when it comes to defense of our crease, we've been about as open as the border between us and our neighbors to the south -
September 1st, 2010
11:50 am
No love for Frankie(Frantisek) Kaberle?
September 1st, 2010
11:52 am
Buff on D? Dudley may beloeve that we do not have enough size on defense. This is partially because we let Kubina go back "home", which I was never in favor of, others too. There's nobody on our current defense that is capable to clearing the front of the net. "Net-clearers" require about 220# to do the job on a regular basis.
That's why Duds is looking at Buff on D
September 1st, 2010
11:56 am
Trade for Pronger. LMAO Seriously, I would have to stop watching the Thrashers I think. NEVER liked him…and now that he wears orange it is even worse. If he could play hard WITHOUT being a cheapshot, but then he wouldn't be Pronger and I wouldn't greatly dislike him.
September 1st, 2010
11:59 am
Let's wait until the Thrashers win a few Cups before we start trying to name "All-Time" greats here…talk about putting the cart before the horse..jeeeeez
September 1st, 2010
12:06 pm
I've sat here and thought about this long and hard.
I've decided we should return to the last post. This one doesn't make any sense at all. It's as if we're supposed to stick our hands into giant piles of crap in an effort to pull out the prettiest looking pieces.
No thanks. Let's give it a few more years.
September 1st, 2010
12:12 pm
Keith and Seabrook don't exactly fit the prototype some of you think a blueline should have for the sake of clearing guys out. Effective use of the stick, boxing out correctly and using the leverage you have can be just as effective. Bogo, Kulda, Hainsey (if Ramsay bitch-slaps him to be more physical), Sopel and Valabik have the potential and / or ability to do this. Hjalmarsson ain't exactly Pronger either. We just need guys to be in the right positions more often. It will come.
September 1st, 2010
12:26 pm
Mr. Rawhides, this appears to be a trick question. However I will attempt to formulate a blueline special:
Kubina,Enstrom,Havelid,Devries,Achilles,and Heel.
September 1st, 2010
12:41 pm
Thanks for the depressing blog Rawhide. I have a Pothier numbered rookie jersey card and a numbered rookie Weaver card. Always nice to have a reminder of how utterly valueless these cards are.
All time D for me would be:
Havlid – Devries
Enstrom – Kubina
(insert any other 2 at this point)
Bogosian will fit on this list hopefully as soon as the end of next season. Possibly Oduya as well. I have high hopes…
September 1st, 2010
12:53 pm
Rawhide – in that case, how about Ole! and Porous as a bottom pairing?
September 1st, 2010
12:54 pm
Just shows how bad our defense has been the past 10 years. You can't win when you're shopping for everybody's 6th defenseman.
September 1st, 2010
1:02 pm
Smoothie: Or for that matter, how about Ben Beaten and I.M. Toast
September 1st, 2010

Just in Thrashers trade defenseman Grant Lewis to Nashville in return for forward Ian McKenzie per Craig Custance

whats the low down on Mckenzie
September 1st, 2010
1:16 pm
Hockeyfutures makes this sound like a dud of a trade.
September 1st, 2010
1:16 pm
I have Grant Lewis rookie card too…
September 1st, 2010
1:19 pm
Now, I'm convinced today is April 1st.
September 1st, 2010
1:24 pm
Barely worth the recognition
September 1st, 2010
1:25 pm
Can I get that brick back? I am going to need it after all because ever since that last blog I can't get Barry Manilow outta my head. Seriously. BARRY FREAKIN MANILOW! And now I am assaulted with the odoriferous past in yet another way as our D is brought up. I like the looks of the future……can we watch that coming at us instead of looking back at the bumbling train wreck that was the DumWad as our GM Atlanta Thrashers?
September 1st, 2010

If this trade doesn't bump the Ilya contract status from the headlines, nothing will.

Chef extraordinaire Julia Child would have been 100 today. After her death on Aug. 13, 2004, at the age of 91, AJC chief dining critic John Kessler wrote his personal remembrances of Child, below, as well as an accompanying tribute.
Kessler called her a "cultural touchstone, an incomparable personality, an iconoclastic voice of reason and a great wit." We hope you enjoy his appreciations of Child as so many readers did when they were first published eight years ago.
By John Kessler
In 1995, when the American Institute of Wine & Food was holding its annual conference in Boston, I was lucky enough to get invited to a cocktail party at Julia Child's home in Cambridge.
It was like a favorite old aunt's house — clean and comfortable, with well-loved carpets over glossy wood floors, and books shelved and stacked everywhere. The side tables in the living room groaned with mementos and family photographs, and the walls were hung with colorful, geometric canvases painted by her late husband, Paul.
But the assembled chefs, restaurateurs and food writers were gathered in the kitchen, which we all knew from television. The side pantry was crammed floor to ceiling with dry goods, including her favorite Pepperidge Farm Goldfish. Pegboard covered the kitchen walls and from it hung gadgets, small appliances, molds, pans, spoons, spatulas, pastry cutters and every imaginable kitchen tool, each in its own Magic Marker outline. In the center of the kitchen stood a large farmhouse worktable, set high enough to be a comfortable chopping surface for the 6-foot-2 Child.
Feeling a bit overwhelmed by the high-powered company gathered around the stove, I went into the empty dining room to inspect a candelabra. Before long I felt a presence overhead and turned around to find Child standing there, a full head taller than me despite the stoop in her shoulders. Her eyes were small, blue and piercing.
"I remember you, " she trilled, recalling our first meeting several years earlier, when I was among a throng of handshakers thrust at her during an event. She asked about my work and my family. We chatted about the food institute, of which she was a co-founder, and before long I was relaxed enough to open up and say what I had always wanted to tell her.
"Julia, " I began, "You don't know what you've meant to me, what an impact you've had on my life."
"Well, that's very nice, " she interrupted before I could continue any longer in that vein. And she was gone, off to visit someone else. Julia apparently had all the time in the world for guests in her home, but no time for idolatry.
Sorry, Julia. The feeling runs deep.
Railing against the diet police
Child, who was 91 when she died in her sleep early Friday in California, was one of the most widely admired public figures in America. She was a cookbook author who changed everything about the American kitchen with the publication of "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" in 1961 and a television celebrity whose fame came from a little cooking show — "The French Chef" — produced by the PBS affiliate in Boston.
But she was more: a cultural touchstone, an incomparable personality, an iconoclastic voice of reason and a great wit.
It was Child, after all, who remarked that the problem with carefully arranged food was that you know someone's hands had been all over it.
It was Child who constantly railed against the diet police and exhorted us to enjoy butter, chocolate and wine in moderation.
And it was Child who was immortalized in comic history by Dan Aykroyd's profusely bleeding portrayal of her on "Saturday Night Live."
When asked about the "SNL" skits, Child always said she found them hilarious.
Of course she did.
It was against Child's nature to be self-conscious. There was no screen between the intense acuity of her mind, the unblinking gaze of her eyes and the warmth of her heart. She was all there. That is the reason inexperienced cooks could sense her guiding hand when following her recipes. That is the reason the producers of "The French Chef" said she was a telegenic natural. That is the reason that everyone who ever met Child had a Child story. In person, she was the same Julia from TV, only more so.
Every reporter assigned to write about Child was shocked to discover that her phone number was listed in the Cambridge directory and that she usually answered the phone herself. An interview request was usually met by an invitation to lunch.
Then again, she was constantly on the road.
'I love McDonald's'
Melissa Libby, an Atlanta publicist, recalled shuttling Child through a series of appearances one day in 1990 when she came to town for a food institute fund-raiser. Child wanted to get her hair set at Carter Barnes salon in Phipps Plaza, which set everything back and left little time for lunch. Libby suggested a mall deli. Child took one look at the soggy offerings and asked to be taken to a McDonald's drive-through instead.
"She told me, 'I love McDonald's. It's very consistent and you always know what you're going to get, ' " Libby said. Child ordered a cheeseburger, fries and a shake, picked up the tab, and made her appearance with time to spare.
Child also let her political opinions be known, whether it was her support of Planned Parenthood or her advocacy of irradiation to make fresh vegetables more available to lower-income buyers. When she spoke at the food institute dinner, she had just seen the controversial Robert Mapplethorpe exhibit at the Cincinnati Contemporary Arts Center. When food stylist Gloria Smiley asked her about it she said, "It's just genitalia, dear. You've seen that before, haven't you?"
The outspoken Child was the guiding force behind the American Institute of Wine & Food, the James Beard Foundation and Copia: The American Center for Wine, Food and the Arts in Napa, Calif. Until she was too weak to get around, she traveled the country constantly, gamely appearing at fund-raisers, catching up with the friends she kept stashed in every city and eating well.
Scott Peacock's dinner with Julia
In 2001, as she was getting more frail, Child gave up her Cambridge home (shipping off the contents of her kitchen to the Smithsonian Institution) and moved into an assisted-living facility near Santa Barbara, Calif.
Decatur chef Scott Peacock of Watershed had dinner with her in February. "She was in a wheelchair and had had knee replacement surgery, " recalled Peacock. "But she was very with it and very engaging."
The conversation veered from cookbook writer's block to a famous television show in which Child had made an omelet in a solid-gold pan to monkey brains and the supposed tables designed with a hole for this delicacy. "She didn't think anyone had really eaten them. She thought it was just a hoax."
Child was working on an autobiography of her years in Paris with her husband, Paul, when she died. Her editor was Judith Jones, who edited all of her books save one.
Jones, contacted at her Vermont home, said "I got the first couple of chapters three or four days ago. I almost cried. They were so Julia."
Child's great-nephew, with whom she was collaborating, plans to finish the book.
As Jones recalled her dear friend, she stirred a pot of chicken and mushroom tetrazzini on the stove.
"I remember when Julia was here a couple of years ago, and I introduced her to this wonderful mushroom lady, who was so excited, " recalled Jones. "She started to tell Julia about all the different kinds of wild mushrooms and their Latin names. Julia laughed and said she just wanted to know which ones tasted good."

I remember this column. I received Vol I. MAFC in 1972 from a good friend and employer when I completed my MA — a perfect gift. Haven't made too many recipes, but her Sauce Moutard is identical to one we served at a dinner party in Paris (with asparagus) in 1996 and her Ratatouille was "a hit" at the Unitarian Fellowship of San Juan in 1975. Her recipes are timeless and delicious; I probably have read the book through five or six times, and it has traveled from Colorado to Puerto Rico to Georgia, always with me.

Thank you so much. She's still missed for her no nonsense approach to food and it's magical properties. I so enjoy watching her old programs on TV. Look at the stuff she's using to cook with! Nothing fancy; just something she had in the cupboard. Thanks again.

10:08 am
lovely articles, John. I always think of Julia Child as my grandmother because I remember watching her show as a small child with my Mother. My Mom would always take notes and write down the recipes. But sometimes at the end of the show, Julia would say that she had to try the recipe two or three times before she got the recipe to come out. My Mom would always crumple up her notes and say that she couldnt make that recipe then because she couldnt afford to waste all those ingredients trying to get it right.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Great school! Parents are very involved but very prejudice towards parents that look different or are not as involved as they are. Sorry, I have a job.
A really good school. So much so, that I'm planning our next move to keep us within school boundaries. My daughter has a attended since midway through Kindergarten, and is now in 2nd grade. The overall feel is very VERY parent-involved, which is great, but for those who are unable (like myself- single parent, work full-time), I do get the impression that I'm judged as not being as involved as I 'should be'. Most of these kids have at least one parent who stays home full or most of the time. I know my daughter wishes that I could help in the class (so do I) like her friend's parents do, which can be hard for her to grasp.
Too much emphasis on teaching the test. One the plus side, the school staff is wonderful and the parents are very involved. Too bad the kids spend most of their day sitting at a desk learing by rote.
Execellent teaching and support staff. Great to be at a school where everybody - teachers, parents, administrators, etc. wants children to LEARN. This is not the school for faint hearted parents, that only want a school that is just day care center. Lowell expects full participation of parents in the education of our children.
small town feeling, parent involvment
The principal, teachers, professional staff and parents provide a healthy, enriching, positive and fulfilling learning community.
Quality school based on focus on reading, writing, math from beginning of school year using multi-sensory approach. Different areas of class use computers, earphones, visual displays, etc. for varied learning strengths. Glad I didn't have to go to a private school.
My son loves Lowell and I have to say I'm very pleased with the teachers and staff. The parents are a different story. Such elitist and is most likely due to the affluent community. Small price to pay in my opinion. I was planning on sending my son for kindergarten only then to a private school but changed my mind when I saw how invested his teachers were.
I have 2 children at lowell and I love it. Excellent school, very impressed. My children are very happy and are learning so much- spanish, computors, dance, art, math, science, reading. The families and the teachers are super.
Lowell is excellent! As a educator myself, this school is amazing. Has totally helped our son who transferred in from private school and was behind! Thank you, Lowell!
Lowell teaches the test. The students aren't learning problem solving, just rote memorization.
Lowell is an amazing school where teachers and parents work together for the students. Yes, there is emphasis on test performance, but every public school in CA has the same concern. My child has had an amazing and enlightening experience so far and can't imagine that changing anytime soon!
I took my child out of Lowell due to bullying. Lowell is just another public school in Los Angeles County trying to be something that it clearly isn't.
I have two kids at Lowell and we have been pleased, overall, with the quality of their education. But I have to agree with others that the emphasis on test scores is a little disheartening. I am not worried that my children will not perform well on standardized tests. I am more concerned that they feel happy and successful in school. In my opinion that forms the basis for success later in life. The administration seems focused on winning awards and recognition, rather than cultivating an atmosphere of nurturing, and love of learning. I wish we could turn the tide with parental input. If everyone would speak up, in a positive way, it could have an impact.
Great school however a little to much emphasis on test scores. There is a lot of parent involvment which helps raise money for art and other extracurricular activities that the normal school budget does not allow.
This is a great school if you are up to par with the rest of the children. If your child needs help in a specific category then there is alot of pressure to keep up with the other children. This is a magnet school and there is a lot of pressure to keep the scores up. I know of a few parents that have taken their children out because of the pressure to perform.
To future parents of Lowell, I just wanted to say my daughter Had the best year ever in elementary school when she transferred to Lowell. Her whole attitude toward school changed for the better when we enrolled her to this fantastic school. She had a wonderful and caring teacher who immediately did everything she could to make my daughter feel like she had been there for years. She had a horrible experiences with her former school (Naples Bayside Academy) that have left wounds and emotional scars that I feel will be there for life! My daughter is a good girl and did not deserve the treatment that she got from her former school. Thank you Lowell for being there for my daughter, I truly appreciate it!
A very good school, with excellent parent participation. The school has wonderful, parent-sponsored art and Spanish Language programs. The focus is definitely on testing. Be aware!
Lowell Academy is a high performing school. My child attended Lowell from kinder through 3rd grade. I truly loved the teachers' devotion and leadership--but-- did not enjoy the PTA. I realize the affluent atmosphere, there is a lot of parental involvement, don't get me wrong. I just did not enjoy the exclusive feeling I recieved when attempting to partake in PTA-run activities. Staff and administration is okay. Principal in 03-04 was fierce. Great education but too much of a private-school attitude. No thanks I'll stick with Fremont.
This school provides an excellent learning environment. We have been fortunate to have exceptional teachers for both my children. Lowell gets down to the business of learning and has strong parent involvement to support the process. We have been more than happy with our experience. It is a great neighborhood school. There are some extras in the curriculm such as the PTA supported Meet the Master's art appreciatin program, Spanish exposure program, instrumental and chorus in the upper grades. For the most part academics are the focus, which is what we want for our children. Our children are very happy, not stressed and have lots of friends. What more could you want?

The BBC Radiophonic Workshop, one of the sound effects units of the BBC, was created in 1958 to produce effects and new music for radio. It was closed in March 1998, although much of its traditional work had already been outsourced by 1995. The original Radiophonic Workshop was based in the BBC's Maida Vale Studios in Delaware Road, London, growing outwards from the then-legendary Room 13.

SCOTUS on AZ Immigration: State Sovereignty is the Issue
The Supreme Court's decision in Arizona v. United States represents an important victory for Arizona and proponents of the States' authority to protect their borders and citizens when the federal government fails to do so.

That's the good news. The bad news: the high court struck down a number of other provisions which Arizona was relying on to secure its borders and protect its citizens. And, there's more bad news.

Paris' Rainbow Kindergarten
This colorful Parisian kindergarten is a three level, four classroom kindergarten on Rue Pajol in the 18th arrondissement. The bold overhaul of the 1940s building is a playful intervention commissioned by the city that delivers functional space and public art.
Palatre & Leclère is the architecture firm behind the Ecole Maternelle Pajol. The original structure was left intact and expanded as the architects went to town with energetic shapes, colors, materials, and forms inside and out.

Not enough grey. I stand by my statement earlier in the week that Europeans are less afraid of color than Americans.
I want to go to there
They should start charging for Rainbow Themed Birthday parties. This actually gives me an idea for decor. So fun!
Wasn't there a post about this school like two weeks ago on AT?

At the time he was an Emerging Artist In Residence at The Southbank Centre in London and has since supported Bellowhead on a UK tour, performed in the Middle East and UK with the British Council's Shifting Sands project, played to thousands as part of the all-star line-up for the tour 'The Lady: A Homage To Sandy Denny', performed on major venue and festival stages in his own right and walked away with Horizon Award for best newcomer at the 2010 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.
'I have a feeling, and I'm not alone, that Sam Carter is going to be huge.' Irish World
'The work of a great songwriter in the making' Guitar & Bass
'His songs look set to stand the test of time and to be covered by others in turn' R2
'A talent developing quickly.' Mojo
'After the release of Keepsakes I found myself becoming more interested in American spirituals, gospel, and the shape note hymn singing tradition. I was knocked out by the zeal with which these songs and hymns dealt with the concerns and expressed the beliefs of those who wrote and sang them. I began to explore the idea of combining the style and feel of these hymns with lyrics that were relevant to me and the people I know on an everyday level; in a sense, to write my own hymns. The resulting songs tackled themes like the recession, work and money, marriage and divorce, a collection of songs expressing belief from a humanitarian rather than religious perspective.' Sam Carter
Sam's second album The No Testament was released in August 2012, an album that saw the singer reinvent his contemporary narrative-based songwriting by infusing it with shapenote, gospel and work song influences. The release caused a wave of media and audience attention for an album that saw Sam reach new heights in his songwriting. As a result he was invited to perform on BBC 2's 'Later…with Jools Holland' in autumn 2012, was filmed for the BBC 4 special 'The Enigma of Nic Jones' – due to be aired September 2013 – and has been in constant demand for live performances.
Sam is an independent artist and has four releases to date, all self-released under Captain Records – Here In The Ground EP (2008), Keepsakes (2009), The No Testament (2012) and Live At The Union Chapel EP (2012) available on CD from HMV, Amazon and other online retailers with the exception of Live At The Union Chapel EP which is exclusively available on CD at Sam's shows. Downloads of all 4 releases are available from Bandcamp. CDs are also available here.

Did You Know There Are Two 3-D Printing Industry Indices?
BA is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Crank out a gold and silver medal, 3-D Systems (NYSE: DDD), Stratasys (NASDAQ: SSYS), The ExOne Company (NASDAQ: XONE), or Arcam! They go to the Germans and a Swiss/German team, respectively, for developing 3-D printing industry indices.
I figured it was only a matter of time before 3-D printing indices were developed and marketed, given 3-D printing is expanding beyond a techie topic and entering the mainstream consciousness.
Structured Solutions launched Solactive 3D Printing Index in March, and STOXX launched STOXX Global 3D Printing Tradable Index in April. These companies license indices to financial institutions for use with exchange-traded funds and other investment vehicles. There aren't any investments based on these indices yet, to my knowledge.
Solactive 3D Printing Index (SOLDDD)
The index was launched with seven holdings, all of which are equally weighted.
I. Holdings
Let's key in on the three largest printer manufacturers:
Data to June 18. All figures percentages, except PEs, PEGs, and D/E.
3D Systems has the most diverse offerings, and continues to gobble up small companies. Just last week it bought Phenix Systems, a manufacturer of Direct Metal Selective Laser Sintering 3-D printers. Its product line is heavy with plastics 3-D printers, so this should be a good complement.
3D Systems is the only one of the three that's current profitable on a GAAP basis. Estimated EPS growth next year and the next 5 years is 24% and 16.5%, respectively. With a 107 trailing P/E and 2.7 5-year PEG, the stock is pricey. Keep in mind the forward P/E and PEG are based on estimates, and that the company has exceeded past estimates. If it does so going forward, that 5-year PEG of 2.7 will be overstated.
Stratasys is more heavily focused on commercial printers, though also has consumer offerings. It merged with Israel-based Objet in late 2012. Estimated EPS growth next year and the next 5 years is 29% and 30.5%, respectively. Stratasys' 5-year PEG indicates it's relatively reasonable priced.
ExOne -- which went public in February -- focuses on high-end ($500,000+) industrial use systems. The stock price has skyrocketed 94% since the IPO, as some view its pure play on industrials (auto, aerospace, etc.) very positively. The company is expected to become profitable next year with a $0.56 EPS. The stock is certainly pricey, though the standout potential exist. Analysts have yet to project earnings going out five years, so there's no 5-year PEG.
As to the others, Arcam specializes in high-end industrial use metal 3-D printers. It can be bought OTC in the U.S. It's very thinly traded. Thinly-traded stocks can be very volatile and easily manipulated. Proto Labs is a service provider, producing protoypes and parts for others. Meanwhile, both Autodesk and Cimatron make design software for 3-D printing and other uses.
II. Inclusion requirements
To be considered for inclusion on this index, companies must meet these requirements:
- Significant business operations in the 3D printing industry.
- Listing on a regulated stock exchange in the form of shares that foreign investors can trade without restrictions.
- Market cap of at least $50 million .
- Average daily trading volume of at least 250,000 in the last three months.
No. 1 indicates there's subjectively, as there's no set revenue percentage that must be generated from 3-D printing.
STOXX Global 3D Printing Tradable Index (STG3DPP)
The index was launched with 10 holdings, and the maximum will be 30. The index is not weighted by market cap.
I. Holdings
Five holdings are disclosed:
Dassault makes design software for 3-D printing and other uses. SolidWorks is its 3-D CAD system.
Nos. 2 through 4 are also in the first index, and were previously discussed.
Greatbatch produces medical products and electrochemical products. Greatbatch Medical, a subsidiary, uses 3-D printing for prototyping (and perhaps also producing) orthopedic implants and devices.
And the others?
The others don't seem to be disclosed. However, STOXX provides geographic and subcategory breakdowns -- and, since there are only 10 holdings, it was easy to deduce three additional holdings:
ExOne and Arcam are also in the first index, and were previously discussed.
Faro develops software-based 3-D electromechanical measurement and imaging systems.
Nos. 9 & 10?
Given the category info provided, the two remaining holdings are a U.S. company and a Japanese one. One is likely a business support company and the other an electrical component one.
II. Inclusion requirements
I converted Euros to U.S. Dollars, so keep in mind the dollar figures will vary with the exchange rate.
- More than one percent of revenue must be generated from the 3-D printing sector
- Minimum three-month average daily trading volume of 250,000 Euros ($333,675)
- Minimum free-float market cap of 80 million Euros (about $107 million)
- Company must be listed in a country that is classified as a developed market according to STOXX's country classification model
ONE percent?! There are few publicly traded pure plays, or even half or quarter plays, so I understand setting a low revenue minimum. However, 1% is ridiculous.
I don't think many are aware of the existence of these indices, so I wanted to bring them to the attention of readers for a couple reasons:
(1) The holdings provide a good starting point for those interested in investing in individual stocks in the 3-D printing realm. While some of the companies are well known, others are surely new names to some.
(2) Some might be interested in investing in ETFs based on these indices when they become available. Investing in individual stocks is often the best way to go. However, investing in an ETF based on one of these indices might appeal to select investors.
There's little doubt that 3-D printing will be a major disruptive technology. That said, the major stocks have high valuations, betas, and short interest. So, they're only suitable for those with higher-risk tolerances.
3D Systems is at the leading edge of a disruptive technological revolution, with the broadest portfolio of 3-D printers in the industry. However, despite years of earnings growth, 3D Systems' share price has risen even faster, and today the company sports a dizzying valuation. To help investors decide whether the future of additive manufacturing is bright enough to justify the lofty price tag on the company's shares, The Motley Fool has compiled a premium research report on whether 3D Systems is a buy right now.

My Friend Changed My LifeHi My name is Star I am 13 years old. i heard about this group Tow weeks ago and i think i can tell you my painful Nighmier of what happend too me . It was november 19 2011 Me and my Friend Walked home from school together becuase we live next too eachother and we always Walked in a alllyway fora shortcut thats like 10 minutes away from our street . but one day he was acting starge . he was saying how he wants too love me like noone will ever love me i told him to stop talking like that . he just kept touching me all over the place and i kept pushing his arms away and he said come on it will be fun. and i slapped him in the face and when he tureend his face to me he looked really pissed off . he grabbed me and pushed me down . and he pinned my arms down. i tried to get him off of me but he was slapping me over and over untill i stoped fighting . and i had no choice but to stop. so i screamed he kept tell me too shut up before i make it hurt even more i kept crying i said too him pleas stop pleas and he just kept smileing he kept kissing me i bit his lip so i could get away but it did not work . he forced his penis into my vagina and it really hurt. i was crying becuase it hurt so badly he just kept luaghing . and when he was done he told me to get up and lets just walk home. i was crying the whole way home. i did not walk with him i walked the other way. when i got home i did not say anything to my mom i ran into my room and started crying and started to cut myself it wwas the worst thing that ever happend too me anyways thanks for reading my story can you commentt anything to make me feel better
I'm sorry to hear about this. Please understand that what happened was all about his behavior and was not in any way caused by you. Sex offenders enjoy power & control; the actual act is not really about the sex. You are a victim, but you can now choose to move forward without letting this horrible experience define you negatively. Be strong and don't carry hate for yourself or even your former friend. Pity him and try to forgive him while loving yourself! Good luck.
wow please please tell someone.. it'll get better from there, it's the best way!
U have to tell some one in order to get through this
Find someone and tell someone. It may not be your parents but someone close to you. I know it seems best not to talk about it but believe me when i say this if you keep it buried in your heart it will tear you apart
You should tell someone if you haven't. I know what it's like to be betrayed by a friend. Comment me if you ever need to talk.
sorry you had to go through this.
re u still friends with him.
I hope your not friends with him anymore and when u got free u should have punched him
Wow...I'm deeply saddened to hear this....Please don't ever blame yourself for this...Not all boys are like him. He likely had control issues and chose to deal with them in the worst of ways. You are never to be used but instead cherished by boys, you are a beautiful person and don't ever let anyone take that away from you. This act of evil he committed against you was not your fault in any way shape or form. Please do not ever attempt to harm yourself for his actions. You are the victim in this crime. Over time you must learn to trust boys again... as hard as it may seem. Do not seek control over your life or those you care about. Most importantly tell your loved ones what happened so they may support you emotionally and get you some help so it won't effect you so much later in life. I personally am male but my mother was raped and I know it effects her till this very day because she never got help. Don't be ashamed or scared, everyone needs help sometimes.
I am sorry for the brutal experience you have had and going through.

Pls talk to some one whom u can trust it will help you. Never think of killing yourself as there will be a lot of people who love you,care about you and help you. you are precious little girl. We love you
add me, if you can maybe i could share some of my stories with you and they will help
Tell someone though that is something you NEED to do and don't cut please cutting kills.... My friend proved that.
I'm sorry you had to experience that :/ he's not the best of the guys out there I myself have never been raped but i have a few friends who have and a few who were almost raped. it ALWAYS sucks to hear stories about this and im soo sorry it happened to you
Star,

Please know that my thoughts are with you. I take meds for my rape. Namely cymbalta and ambien. It happened on my birthday, so now I don't even like to celebrate. Know that there are other girls out there, going through what you've been through. Rape. I'm glad you can share your story. That takes great inner strength. A strength you will need when talking to a counselor. You need to talk with a professional. They don't judge, they will believe you, and want nothing more than to get you feeling better. Maybe you won't like the first or second counselor. But keep searching for and talking to counselors until you find one that you connect with. Dont give up honey. And please don't cut yourself anymore. You are beautiful and as you grow older the visibility of any scars from cutting will only remind you of a time you don't wish to reflect upon. I watch a lot of Law and Order: SVU. This helps me deal with my rape. Hearing hypothetical stories of other people allowed me to feel connected to the world again. That and yoga (just YouTube yoga for beginners if you want). Good luck honey. Hoped I helped a bit.
I was raped by my friend to but my friend was a girl
Starbar, I was molested at the age of 8 by an X-brother-in-law. I didn't tell anyone either. He made me feel like my family would hate me if I did. So I didn't until I was much older. That was a mistake. Tell someone! And get counselling. If I had, my life would have been much better, but instead I suffered for many years alone with it and it affected my life as well as my children's. I since have been through therapy and it has been very helpful. Tell someone Star. Don't hide this inside your whole life like I did. Get to a counsellor at your school if you feel you cannot talk to your parents. Believe me, you do not want to suffer with this your whole life as I did. It will effect your life negatively in far too many ways if you do. Get help!
im sorry for what happened. i can kind of relate to your story. talk to a person you trust and tell them how you feel and somehow they will help you. just know that i love you and so does everybody else.

Cabo Cabo Cabo.
Repeat:This is NOT Laguna Beach.
Tonight, Jenni will show Brad how she feels.
DeAnna will tell Brad how she feels.
And Bettina will try to save what she has with Brad.
What's with the grammatical lesson, Chris? Guess we had to feel his influence somewhere, as he didn't appear once in tonight's episode. The show wouldn't even fly its own host to Cabo? Le cheapskates!
We started off by learning not only are we in Cabo, but we'd be spending entire days and nights with Brad and each of the bachelorettes. A whole day and night with Jenni? Like OMG, where do I sign?!
Jenni was the first bachelorette to meet up with Brad, who waited for her on a dock. Jenni bounded over to him as producers likely told her to.
"I was hoping you'd run," Brad said. I was hoping she'd faceplant, but that's just me. That's right, Jenni, bound toward uncertainty and exploitation! Bound as you've never bounded before!
Alas, it turned out that today the duo would be swimming with dolphins. Jenni threw her head back and laughed in confessional saying she was a little nervous but didn't want to "look like a weirdo or goofy in front of Brad." Because all that dancing is totally totally serious. Just think, Jenni, maybe swimming with the dolphins can be your Fame! OK, with a dolphin; I guess Flipper took the day off. The pair dove right into the experience -- well, Brad sort of half fell, half bellyflopped.
As Jenni cavorted with a gigantic dolphin, Brad knew he had to figure out how she feels. He knows they're attracted to one another. The theme of the night: PROVE IT. He decides the best method is to ask her point blank: How do you feel about me? Oh yes, Brad, because ultimatums always turn out so well -- this may be why no relationship book recommends them EVER.
Jenni's hair, outfit and makeup magically transform to pre-dolphin swimming as she replies that she wants to tell Brad, but has trouble saying it because she doesn't want to put herself out there and then get hurt. Look, girl, I'm just saying: This guy went on national television and is the butt of public scrutiny every day. Can't you meet him 1/100th of the way? No one gets assured that a relationship will work out. There's no way of knowing that.
When we returned from commercial break, we saw tonight's episode was rated TV-14 for L! What could the language be so bad about?
Turns out tonight you must be invited to spend the night with Brad in the fantasy suite, which translates to Night of Perpetual Awkwardness. But first, the obligatory dinner that no one ate to dance around the topic of Will They Or Won't They? Brad won't give Jenni the card until he knows how she feels, and prods her by saying he is grateful she came into his life ... since now for the rest of it, he'll be able to say he totally hooked up with a Phoenix Suns dancer! Pound the rock and lock it in with me, dude!
Jenni agrees that she and Brad do love spending time together, but made no mention of being in love with him. Wouldn't that be key? Her feelings for him are strong, and now she wanted to show him -- plus, she was pretty sure he had something for her in his pocket ... or is he just happy to see her? Brad replies that maybe all there is tonight is a nice dinner -- but she's more than welcome to fish around in his pocket if she would like. A true competitor to the core, Jenni fished out her own fantasy suite card. Nothing says, "I love the thrill of competition more than you" than a move like that.
Entering the fantasy suite, the pair lie on the bed in some sexual-yet-not pose. "I feel like I was here to meet you," Jenni said, stating the obvious. "Thank you for being the man I dream about" -- um, excuse me while I go barf. They kissed. I'm still having trouble picturing them being together. Maybe if she didn't have the emotional maturity of a 13-year-old girl, it'd be easier.
Back from commercial, Bettina was going to get her shot at love with Brad on a boat used in the America's Cup race. The two teamworked it out and helped the crew sail the boat, which gave us a nice bonding moment. Brad suggested they hit the beach, so they dove off the boat and walked along the sand. Later that night, at La Frida restaurant, Brad and Bettina romantically whispered sweet nothings into each others' ears -- about her family. Still. Weeks later. Over it!
"My family's only concern was that you might not be into me," Bettina whined. "Well, I tried to convey how I felt, but I left there just feeling doubted," Brad responded. Bettina then confided they'd be upset if she moved to Austin, but she didn't care, because if things worked out between them, it'd be a no-brainer for her to pack up and ship out.
Brad just hoped she'd loosen up in the suite. Apparently, there were a lot of dead pauses in their conversations, and felt the suite would mellow Bettina out. He extends the invite, and she accepts. There is a hot tub involved, so you can guess what happened next. Brad confided that the more he knows about her, the more he likes her. Oh, yeah, and she's really hot, too. Twice Brad tried to kiss past her mouth and onto her face, but stopped himself. Good boy.
After another commercial break, it was DeAnna's turn. The duo would be hitting the track for a little dirt track dine buggy racing action. The two flirted over their radios as DeAnna really showed Brad up, which embarrassed him, but he liked it. Who wouldn't want to feel that every day in a relationship? You don't want to feel a guy always lets you win at everything because you're a girl.
Brad confesses he's most excited for tonight with DeAnna because he's waited for this moment since he met her. DeAnna confesses she wants to spend the night with Brad, cuddle all night, wake up next to him and then eat breakfast. The fact that she felt this way from the beginning, even though she didn't think she could fall in love this quickly with anyone, speaks volumes. And she's not just falling for anyone, she tells Brad -- only for Brad. But all I could notice was she didn't even touch her amazing enchiladas! Come on, girl, green sauce and black beans in Cabo! Who says no to that?!
DeAnna accepted Brad's invite to the fantasy suite, which turned out to be a new room. Good move, producers; tf they had Brad in the same room three nights in a row with three different women, they would have to change its name to the fantasies schmantasies suite.
Brad admits he doesn't just see DeAnna as someone to date, but as a soulmate. Then the duo found a pool. Again, something tells me they made out.
After that last commercial break, it was time for the rose ceremony. Perhaps it was due to editing, but Brad's time with Jenni seemed strained and 50/50 on the emotion, Bettina's seemed hot and heavy, and DeAnna's seemed perfect. But Jenni did get her own commercial break, i.e. twice the amount of coverage the other two girls got on their dates with Brad. What are producers trying to say?
So who's in?
Brad takes Bettina to sit down and talk before she leaves the show. She knows he may not have the answers, but asks him why he made this choice. Brad confesses he doesn't know who she really is; that she's still a complete mystery to him. This is when Bettina pretty much breaks up with herself and gives Brad an out by saying if she feels more for the other girls than for her, then he should stay with them. Come on, she doesn't mean that! She's just too nice!
Brad also admits he let her go because he didn't think he should have to work that hard at love. It's true; it's love, not a science fair assignment. As she drives away, Bettina says she's most upset with herself because she fell in love with herself, but Brad didn't fall back. Now she suspects she'll never fall in love again. Please, girl, you said that before! You'll be fine. Your family will be thrilled you're not moving, and if you keep selling those million-dollar homes, you will be, too.
Next on The Bachelor: The live reunion show! Jenni and DeAnna meet Brad's family! And holy crap, he's got an empty ring box! See what happens when Brad follows his heart -- no laughing! We're doing the most romantic stuff on The Bachelor yet!
OK body language experts, here's your last chance to predict lurve:
We end with a clip of Brad and Bettina awkwardly watching a musical ensemble perform. This really killed the mood for me, as the vignettes do every episode.
But, I totally called the final two a few weeks back! Did you?
Should Bettina have left now?
Will Jenni's navel ever escape from the confines of her formalwear?
Who is going to be the last girl standing?

According to the consulting firm Irving Levin Associates, hospital merger and acquisition deals have experienced a significant boast in the past year and half. As seen below, the number of deals increased by 40% from 2009 to 2010, where total deal value rose from $1.7 billion to $12.6 billion for that same period. This year is set to continue the pace, having 23 deals in the first quarter alone.
This comes as no surprise to hospital leaders. From a recent survey by HealthLeaders Media ("Hospital Mergers and Acquisitions: Opportunities and Challenges," November 2011), 86 percent of hospital leaders are expecting increased acute care M&A activity across the next 12 months. In addition, 87 percent expected the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, if enacted, will drive volume. That same survey showed that the top three physician specialties for M&A activity are hospitalists (70%), primary care (69%), and cardiology (66%).
How do we here in Georgia stack up to this national trend? It appears that we're right on point. Since the start of the year, our headlines have been dotted with several large hospital acquisitions, with two of the largest being Emory's purchase of St. Joe's in March and Piedmont's purchase of Henry Medical Center in April.
Now that it is rumored that Southern Regional is weighing its options, it begs the question of how soon will the next big acquisition occur and if 2011 might just make Atlanta the poster child for what is in store for the next 5 years in the industry. We're all tuned in to find out.
August 23rd, 2012
1:00 pm
I did the Sat in trfaifc. Sat in trfaifc. Sat in trfaifc. thing one Monday morning at around 0745 as I was driving through Atlanta one day. I don't recommend it, but sometimes, there just isn't any other way.Glad you're back safely.
