Testing: Ensuring LTE Advanced Goes Without a Hitch
December 10, 2013 2:31 pm | by Andrew Berg | CommentsLTE Advanced may bring a number of novel new features to mobile networks. Carrier aggregation and Voice over LTE (VoLTE) are two aspects of the standard that have arguably created the biggest headlines recently and for good reason.
Breaking Down AT&T's New Mobile Share Plans
December 6, 2013 9:31 am | by Anick Jesdanun, AP Technology Writer | CommentsAT&T is joining T-Mobile in reducing monthly fees for people who pay for their own devices. It's the latest break from a longstanding practice of offering subsidies on devices to lock customers into two-year service agreements. Many customers have been forgoing those subsidies anyway as they choose plans that allow frequent phone upgrades.
Wireless Week Predictions for 2014
December 4, 2013 11:24 am | by Wireless Week Staff | CommentsIt's that time of year again, as we say goodbye to the old and look to the future. In this year's predictions for 2014, we hear from some of the industry's top executives. From small cells and virtualization to the cloud and the Internet of Things, the coming year promises to bring more challenges, innovation, and disruption.
Review: Moto G Isn't the Best, but Decent for $179
December 4, 2013 10:36 am | by Anick Jesdanun, AP Technology Writer | CommentsYou're not getting the best or the latest technology with Motorola's $179 Moto G smartphone. What you do get is a great price for something close. Motorola bills the Moto G as the phone for the rest of us — the ones who can't afford $500 to $700 for a high-end smartphone.
Review: 5 Shopping Apps to Get You the Best Prices
December 2, 2013 10:17 am | by Joseph Pisani, AP Business Writer | CommentsMany retailers, for instance, will match deals you find elsewhere, so these apps can help you find better prices to show the cashier. Some let you search for coupons, while others tell you whether you're better off buying online instead. And one keeps track of all those promotional fliers that do little good if you forget them at home.
LTE Tablet Holiday Face-Off
November 27, 2013 9:15 am | by Ben Munson | CommentsThe price gap between cellular and Wi-Fi-only tablets stands prohibitive to most folks scooping up a slate with an LTE chip. But In case anyone's thinking about picking up a cellular-ready tablet—on/off contract or month-to-month—we put a few LTE slates up against one another and see how comes out as the winner of a spot on a holiday wish list.
When Will LTE Be a 'No-Brainer' for Tablet Shoppers?
November 26, 2013 3:51 pm | by Andrew Berg | CommentsWhen consumers are tablet shopping this holiday season, they'll likely still notice a significant price difference between the LTE-capable models and those with Wi-Fi only; Apple charges a $130 premium for the Wi-Fi + Cellular version of the iPad Air. In short, the cost of picking up a tablet with cellular connectivity is still prohibitive for many.
Review: HTC, Nokia Offer Good, Giant Choices
November 26, 2013 8:57 am | by Anick Jesdanun, AP Technology Writer | CommentsI find giant phones hard to carry and use, but I'm well aware that many people like the bigger images and text they offer. These so-called phablets, with screens measuring about 6 inches diagonally, are nearly as big as the smallest tablets. Unlike tablets, they can make phone calls over cellular networks.
Review: Nexus 5 Delivers Basics at Great Price
November 21, 2013 3:51 pm | by Anick Jesdanun, AP Technology Writer | CommentsYou don't get a lot of frills with Google's new Nexus 5 phone. There's no fingerprint reader, no waterproof covering, no sensor to detect eye movement or hand gestures. What you get is an Android phone that's very good at the basics — for an excellent price.

With their advantages of mobility slipping away, it's time for mobile operators to identify the next generation of business opportunities that they are uniquely qualified to pursue. It's time for operators to look to the cloud.
Review: Oplink TripleShield Proves Powerful, Affordable, Potentially Creepy
November 8, 2013 9:34 am | by Andrew Berg | CommentsThe fact that I was able to freak out my with with the Oplink TripleShield is a testament to just how far consumer wireless technologies have come. A complete home security system in a box,TripleShield takes about 15 minutes to set up and I found that it pretty much does what it says it will do.
Review: New Kindle Is Strong Challenge to iPad Air
November 7, 2013 9:11 am | by Anick Jesdanun, AP Technology Writer | CommentsOn the heels of Apple's new, lighter iPad, Amazon has come out with a full-size tablet that weighs even less yet sports a sharper display and a lower price tag. Although Amazon's Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 hasn't received as much attention as the iPad Air, it is emerging as the strongest challenger yet to Apple's device.

November 5, 2013 4:35 pm | by Ben Munson | CommentsIBM's not new to the cloud. The IT giant began accelerating its efforts in 2009.

To the south and southwest of downtown, this family-friendly region claims some of the city's greenest pastures. Hayhurst's 52-acre Alpenrose dairy complex boasts a stadium and a velodrome. Inside the Western-replica town of Dairyville, visitors find a doll museum and opera house, among other venues. Toward downtown, Portland Children's Museum offers still more activities for the young folk.
Тигард – просмотреть все отели в этом районе"Convenient location"
The Bridgeport Mall area has everything in a dense and convenient location near the I-5 freeway south of Portland. The Grand Hotel is between the mall and the freeway, but the room I had was quiet, large and rather sterile and lacking any warmth in personality. Being close to new, the condition was nice and well appointed, but I did have one serious […] problem---I found the toilet plugged! Need I say more? ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com

"Nice big room"
Our room was spacious, clean, comfortable and quiet. The free breakfast is decent, more or less the typical "full" free buffet. Bathroom is large with a separate tub and shower. Bed pillows were above par. Decent office chair at the provided desk in the room. Close to Bridgeport shopping and freeway access. My only complaint is that the exterior door […] nearest the parking garage does not have a card swipe. You have to go around to the front door to get in.

"it's across a wholefoods."
I liked the hotel. I showed up 30 minutes early prior to check in and now one seem to give me any lip about it. It's a pretty nice room, what seems to be ample parking, they have internet and hbo. No bar in lobby though. Microwave and fridge provided. on a scale of 1-10 its like a 9. Very nice hotel for a 3 star price, convenient location should you […] want to purchase a bottle of sauternes (wholefoods across the parking lot) for the night. There's also a complimentary breakfast but I never do breakfast so I wouldn't know what they offered. ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com

"Pleasant surprise"
Very clean hotel. Rooms were spacious and the bathrooms quite large with a tub and a shower and room for at least two people to get ready. Beds were very comf. Minimal outside noise could be heard.

"A step or two up from Super 8"
Stayed here following an event in Portland. Rooms are fairly spacious. Window units are a little loud and our room was adjacent to the parking lot. Pillows were half sized, so you may consider bringing your own. Staff was friendly. Room was clean. Stay was better than your average Best Western.Отзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com
"Great location"
The only things we care less for is the breakfast, which is extremely limited and didn't look or smell appetizing, and the loud talking/noises from the hallway or room above that make their way into the room. Other than that, the staff is friendly, it's in a prime location, and the beds are comfortable.Отзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com

"Great Hotel Affordable Price"
We stayed here for a labour day long weekend shopping trip as it's half way between to Woodburn and Portland. We find the hotel in very good condition with a grand foyer. The room and bathroom is large and clean and with all the toiletries properly stocked. Overall, a great place to stay especially considering the fact that there are many good restaurants […] nearby for a family of 2+15mth to look for a quick bite that's kids friendly.

"great stay as always"
As always look forward to staying at this hotel. The only problem was that I never noticed before how noise from upper floor and in hallway can come across loudly in another hotel room. I guess we have always been on a higher floor and this time we were on a lower floor. Apart from that, as always great staff and friendly service.Отзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com
"excellent value for your stay"
We were happy with our choice of hotel. Grand Hotel is in a good location, close to I-5, a block away to Bridgeport Village Mall. Hotel has good service, room is clean and confortable, complimentary breakfast is above average.

The Grand Hotel is a modern hotel with all the amenities of old world service and charm. The breakfast buffet rivals more expensive hotels.

"Very nice facility, but poor customer service"
The facility is great, clean, and located close to good shopping, but priced too high considering other similar properties located near by. Our stay was very nice until the middle of the night when the guest next door decided to take a one hour shower from 2:30-4 am, then again from 5-6 am. The walls are paper thin where water pipes are concerned. This […] was the worst night's sleep I've had in a hotel of this caliber EVER. The neighbor also left the water running in between the two showers so there was constant drip, drip. It was water torture at its worst. At checkout, I complimented the facility, but nicely complained about how we checked in late and likely got the worst room in the house. The two clerks at the desk said, no but the customer in the room next door had been complained about before and was a problem. I waited for more of an apology and a possible offer of monetary compensation and got nothing but a "sorry" and a chocolate for my grandchild. Amazing! We won't be back.

For the price I paid for my room I could have stayed in downtown Portland on the waterfront. The service at this hotel is more like staying in a "tall motel."

My complaint is that with you I booked a room with two beds.

Also with the hotel I spoke with them before we arrived and said we wanted a room on the highest floor. The girl with […] whom I spoke said she would provide a high level room.

A Visitor's Guide to Accessible Cape Town

Whilst we have some distance to go to being a completely Universally Accessible (UA) destination, awareness is on the rise and with it the number of improvements made to our city.
My Top Five Picnic Spots in Cape Town
Even the word picnic is loaded with nostalgia; for me it holds memories of homemade frikkadels, chicken drumsticks and large cold drinks enjoyed with friends and family in special places.
Your picnic basket may have changed, as mine has. The frikkadels and drumsticks are from the deli and the chilled drink is more likely to be a local wine. What does remain the same is sharing this time with loved ones, in places that leave me feeling inspired and relaxed.

I was able to bring my medium sized dog with me on travel and the staff and everyone helped a lot. I will definitely recommend this location and give them a positive review. Great breakfast and nice grassy areas for the dogs to explore.

"Average hotel, nothing special... except the weak wifi signal is unusable"
Reviewed Dec 1, 2013
xplorers2 | Spring, TX
Being a La Quinta Rewards member, I stay at a lot of La Quintas and often. This locally-owned La Quinta franchise doesn't have much remarkable to say about it. The biggest plus is the front desk staff; all were very friendly, helpful, and professional. There are two negatives, one of which is huge for me... 1) I've stayed here 3 times over the past two years and never been able to get a WIFI signal strong enough to stay connected. The first two times I was in hallway-end rooms and thought that was the reason, just too far from the access points. Those were pleasure trips so I just accepted no internet access. This last stay was for business so I got a room right in the middle of the second floor, where the WIFI signal should be the strongest. But the signal was so weak I couldn't get connected. And I couldn't conduct important business without going down to the lobby. 2) I have lots of La Quinta Reward Night points, but I've NEVER been able to book a Reward Night at this hotel, even when it's almost empty. Have done an on-line experiment to determine is it's possible to get a Reward Night far into the future on slow winter nights... not possible. It's clear that the local franchise owner doesn't allow Reward Nights to be booked, in contradiction of La Quinta's own Rewards advertising, which is spotted all over this hotel's lobby and front desk. How does La Quinta allow their franchises to get away with this? Won't be staying here again since WIFI is unusable.

The start of our roadtrip was with the LaQuinta in Seabrook. It's a good place and especially very close to the Johson Space Center which was our destination. From there Galveston and Houston are also just a short drive. All other facilities were good and clean! Especially Ryan from the frontdesk helped us and it was fun to talk with him about life in and around Seabrook as it was far away from his home town.

We were staying on a sailboat in the marina and in a jam...no clean clothes and only laundry was closed. We saw this Laquinta in walking distance and since we're reward point members, called and asked if we could use the laundry. Ryan who was on duty said sure and also let us swim in the pool as we waited on our clothes...that membership stuff really does pay off!

Gwyneth Paltrow, Leighton Meester, Tim McGraw and Garrett Hedlund get in tune
By Geoff Berkshire, Metromix
A music superstar struggles to overcome her inner demons in "Country Strong," an intimate drama starring Oscar-winner Gwyneth Paltrow, country star Tim McGraw, Leighton Meester ("Gossip Girl") and Garrett Hedlund ("TRON: Legacy").
Written and directed by Shana Feste ("The Greatest"), the movie makes a seemingly counterintuitive demand that Paltrow, Meester and Hedlund do their own country singing, while McGraw never breaks out in song. All four stars and the director recently discussed how the movie and music came together, and the highlights follow.

Critical Essays
Bret Harte American Literature Analysis
Harte, a writer who featured local color and depictions of the California Gold Rush in his short stories, created stock characters who were villains externally and saints internally. Many of his protagonists are estranged from their own culture, such as the outcasts in "The Outcasts of Poker Flat." Harte's writing has been praised for its fresh humor, good prose (rarely was it inflated and self-conscious), and command of dialect. Wallace Stegner, in his introduction to The Outcasts of Poker Flat, and Other Tales, summarizes why Harte, despite his critics, has lasted:Humor, economy, mastery of a prose instrument and a compact fictional form, a trick of paradox and color, a chosen (later compulsive) subject matter full of romantic glamor, a faculty for creating types that have become the stock in trade of a whole entertainment industry—these are surely enough to account for Harte's lasting. But there is something more. He made a world. . . . It was at once recognizable as plausible, cohesive, self-contained.
Much has been said of Harte's narrative strategy. He constantly uses a third-person narrator, creating a distance between himself and his characters. Also contributing to the distance between the author and the characters is that Harte used almost no autobiographical incidents in his stories, though he claimed in an interview that all the characters existed in real life even if he may not have been able to label each specifically....

When the Lady Raider weightlifters walked into the gym at Choctaw, nine other teams knew any chance of finishing first was over. The "Queens of Weightlifting" had arrived. Navarre's shirts said it all, "Two times state runner-ups, third time's the charm." The Raiders overwhelmed the field, winning 91 points. The next highest team was Choctaw with 46 points. Gulf Breeze finished third with 23 points.
Although the Raiders graduated several team members from last year's team, they are once again loaded with talent. "We have a very good group of girls again this year," Coach Aaron Daniel said. "They have worked very hard and were anxious for the season to start." Although happy with a win, Daniel said they still have some work to do in some of the weight divisions.

MONDAY. February 9, 1863.The reading of the Clerk's Journal of Saturdays proceedings was dispensed with.
Reports from committees recommending that House bills 2, (see page 34;) 13, (p. 43;) and 73 (p, 68;) be laid on the table, were severally concurred in.
The following bills were introduced, read the first time and severally passed to the second reading:
By Mr. HIGGINS, (150) to provide for the election of officers of the Northern state Prison and their compensation.
By Mr. LEMMON, of Harrison, (151) in favor of the liquidation of the debt of the Indiana University, by the Sinking Fund Commissioners.
Mr. MILLER made a report from a committee recommending that the bill (H. R. 132) to enlarge the powers of county boards in reference to the purchase of arms, and the support of soldiers families be laid on the table.
The question on concurrence in the report was undecided for lack of a quorum--yeas 43, nays 22.
The report was concurred in by yeas 49, nays 31.
Mr. PACKARD, from the Select Committee thereon reported in favor of his joint resolution 15 (printed on pages 77 and 78 of these Reports) with an amendment that the registry be made by the State Librarian.
Mr. LAMB proposed to have the Adjutant General associated with the State Librarian.
Mr. CASON offered an amendment to that effect and supported it in an argument. Certainly the Adjutant General had a more competent possession of the facts than the State Librarian.
Mr. PACKARD defended his report. There was no need of the association of any other person with the Librarian. The Adjutant General certainly would afford all facilities to the officer appointed by this House. The m;in indicated had every qualification for the duty imposed, had the required leisure, and was to be the custodian of the work when completed.
Mr. ROBERTS argued in favor of the report, opposing the employment of the Adjutant General on the score of economy. It was necessary to employ but one functionary. He moved to table the amendment of the gentleman from Boone and Hendricks.
The motion was agreed to--yeas 46, nays 36.
Mr. HIGGINS moved to concur in the report of the committee, with an amendment limiting the cost to $250.On motion by Mr. MILLER the amendment was laid on the table--yeas 42, nays 40.
Mr. GRIFFITH proposed an amendment allowing the Adjutant General $100 for assistance and papers which he would furnish the State Librarian, allowing the latter $400.
On motion by Mr. PACKARD the amendment was laid on the table--yeas 48, nays 35.
Mr. PACKARD offered an amendment, fixing the compensation of the Librarian at $500, not more than one half to be page: 129[View Page 129] drawn before his labors were approved by the Board of Education.
Mr. JOHNSON made an ineffectual motion--yeas 28, nays 53--to lay the amendment on the table.
Mr. ROBERTS demanded the previous question.
The demand was sustained, and the report of the Committee was concurred in.
The amendment fixing the compensation of the Librarian was adopted.
Mr. LAMB offered an amendment to recommit with instructions to add resolutions pledging that the sacred cause in which our patriotic soldiers fell shall never be given up, nor traitorous feet be permitted to tread upon their graves.
Mr. MILLER saying that the resolution was intended only as a rider to kill the whole proposition, moved to table it.
The motion was agreed to--yeas 40, nays 39.
Mr. MARSHALL offered a substitute for the joint resolutions as reported on by the Committee.
Mr. PACKARD. I desire to ask if Mr. Laz. Noble himself did not prepare the substitute.
Mr. MARSHALL. He did.
Mr. PACKARD. Ah! I thought so.
Pending which the House adjourned.

West of the city, authorities sealed off a section of a frozen lake where it was believed a sizable meteorite crashed through the ice.
But a team of divers has found no trace of any meteorite in the lake, an emergencies ministry spokeswoman told state media on Saturday.
The meteor was a once-in-a-century event, NASA officials said, describing it as a "tiny asteroid."
The space agency revised its estimate of the meteor's size upward late Friday from 49 feet (15 meters) to 55 feet (17 meters), and its estimated mass from 7,000 tons to 10,000 tons.
The space agency also increased the estimated amount of energy released in the meteor's explosion from about 300 to nearly 500 kilotons. By comparison, the nuclear bomb the United States dropped on Hiroshima in 1945 released an estimated 15 kilotons of energy.
The whole event, from the meteor's atmospheric entry to its disintegration in the air above central Russia, took 32.5 seconds, NASA said.
The national space agency, Roscosmos, said scientists believe one meteoroid entered the atmosphere, where it burned and disintegrated into fragments.
Amateur video footage showed a bright white streak moving rapidly across the sky before exploding with an even brighter flash and a deafening bang.
The explosion occurred about 9:20 a.m. local time, as many people were out and about.
A once in a lifetime event
Russians captured vivid images, many using dash cameras inside their vehicles.
Dash cameras are popular in Russia for several reasons, including possible disputes over traffic accidents and the corrupt reputations of police in many areas. Drivers install the cameras for their own protection and to document incidents they could be caught in.
Five regions of Russia, one of them Chelyabinsk, are thought to have been affected, Itar-Tass said. RIA Novosti cited emergencies ministry officials as saying three regions and Kazakhstan were involved.
NASA said on its website that the meteor was the largest reported since 1908, when the famous Tunguska event took place in remote Siberia.
In that incident, an asteroid entered the atmosphere and exploded, leveling about 80 million trees over an area of 820 square miles -- about two-thirds the size of Rhode Island -- but leaving no crater.
"We would expect an event of this magnitude to occur once every 100 years on average," said Paul Chodas of NASA's Near-Earth Object Program Office at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California.
"When you have a fireball of this size, we would expect a large number of meteorites to reach the surface, and in this case there were probably some large ones."
In what astronomers said was an unrelated coincidence, a larger asteroid, called 2012 DA14, passed relatively close to Earth around 2:24 p.m. ET Friday.
Stargazers in Australia, Asia and Eastern Europe could see the asteroid with the aid of a telescope or binoculars, but it never got closer than 17,100 miles to the planet's surface.
The Russian meteor was about one-third the size of the asteroid. The two bodies were on very different trajectories, scientists said.

Goodyear is accepting nominations for its 31st North America Highway Hero Award at www.goodyeartrucktires.com through Nov. 29, 2013.
The Goodyear Highway Hero Award, which is the oldest and most prestigious award of its kind, honors truck drivers who put themselves in harm's way to help others.
Goodyear will announce the 31st Highway Hero Award winner during the 2014 Mid-America Trucking Show (MATS) in Louisville, Ky.
The winner will receive a $5,000 prize, a custom Goodyear Highway Hero ring, and other honors.
The Highway Hero Award was created in 1983 to help elevate the image of the trucking industry and recognize truck drivers for their courage and selflessness. (Click here to watch a video about the Goodyear Highway Hero Award, including footage from last year's Highway Hero Award announcement event during MATS.)
Last year's Goodyear Highway Hero Award winner, Jason Harte, rescued a family of six, including four children, from a crushed minivan. The previous year's Goodyear Highway Hero Award recipient, Mike Schiotis, rescued a woman from a gun-wielding attacker.
Other past winners include a driver who pulled an elderly man from a car moments before it was destroyed by on oncoming train, a driver who rescued two girls who were trapped in a burning vehicle, and a driver who dove into a pond to save a child who was stuck in a rapidly sinking car.
"Truck drivers are often first responders to on-highway incidents, springing into action without regard for their own well-being and putting their lives on the line to save others," said Phillip Kane, vice president, Goodyear Commercial Tire Systems.
"Through the Goodyear Highway Hero program, we've heard hundreds of stories about truck drivers' bravery. If you know a truck driver who has put his or her own safety at risk to help someone else, please let us know."
To nominate a truck driver for Goodyear's 31st North America Highway Hero Award, click on this link, fill out the online Highway Hero registration form, and hit the "submit" button, which will send your nomination directly to Goodyear. For consideration, candidates must meet the following criteria:
After the Goodyear Highway Hero Award nomination period ends, the list of eligible Highway Hero Award candidates will be narrowed down to four finalists. A panel of trucking industry judges will then select the 31st Goodyear North America Highway Hero, who will be revealed March 2014 during a special event at MATS. (Final approval of Goodyear Highway Hero finalists and the Highway Hero Award winner is at Goodyear's sole discretion. Finalists must clear background checks to Goodyear's satisfaction.)

The pretty brunette, named Jocelyn, has spoken out in a bid to silence reports about the 18 year old's alleged inappropriate behaviour, insisting he was just the victim of a bad camera angle.
She tweeted, "IM DYING HAHAHAHHAHA IT LOOKS LIKE JUSTIN'S TOUCHING MY BOOB IN THE PICTURE AHAHAHAHHA… Let me clear this up for people who can't read, NO I did NOT ask Justin to touch my boobs… I whispered that it was my 2nd time sneaking in & he kissed me on the cheek in the picture & it looks like his hand is there. "People can think what they want but I know what really happened & Justin does too, so everyone else's opinions don't matter to me."

The idea behind this group is to offer a place for people interested in wine to experience wine together. Learning about wine on your own is tough and I find quick tastings at wine shops or huge crowded wine events equally unhelpful. Here we can have a small group, take our time, and get to know more about wines and each other. Whether you know nothing about wine or you're an expert, all that matters is that you're interested. My hope is to do small group tastings that I know I always want to d …

Make new friends and have fun whether it's sipping wine, taste-testing a flight of beer/ale, or sampling from other types of libations...single malt scotch, cognacs, etc. Some of our adventures will have us in a fine dining establishment, other times rolling up our sleeves and elbowing up to the bar in a local brewpub. This group was established not just to have a good time "meeting up" but it was put in place to enjoy d …
Have you ever wonder why Riesling is bottled in a long, tall bottle and Pinot Noir in a shorter, thicker bottle? What makes a red wine red? What kind of glass should you use when drinking a Cabernet? If so, you probably want to know more about wine the same way we do. We are a group of wine enthusiast who would like to learn more about wine. Whether it is a red from Chile, or a white from Germany, we want to learn and taste them all! Join us to share your knowledge about wine, or learn the thing …
This group is for anyone who enjoys wine, art, or just getting out and trying something new-like painting! I call it Art Rave! As an artist and mom of four, I love to share my passion for art with others, and what better way than with a bunch of friends and a bottle of wine! I'll find exciting locations to meet, create beautiful, but easy artwork to paint, and invite you to join me, as we drink, paint, and have fun. Absolutely no art experience needed-this is all about the FUN!

Northside Wine Collection Club is an established form of alternative investment that can offer impressive returns. The wine market is based upon simple supply and demand economics. Bordeaux has the most stable financial market of all wine producing regions, while in each decade only 3-4 vintages out of every 10 have wines of a high enough quality for investment purposes. A chateau can only produce a unique and finite amount of wine each year. As this is happening the wine is maturing and becomin …

As a Founding Ambassador with Boisset Wine Living, I bring wine lovers together for in-home or office tastings with award-winning wines from Napa and Sonoma, such as Raymond Vineyards (2012 American Winery of the Year).

Sometimes you just need a beer …

For those who like to start classy and end trashy. We'll start at a nice wine bar and progressively move to dive bars. For those who wish to kick on, we'll choose a new diner (preferably 24-hour old school, low class) to line our stomachs with grease. Exactly as the name of the group describes - from wine to dive, becoming less classy as the night moves on. The group is all about meeting people in a fun environment and having lots of laughs along the way. Lose your inhibitions, lose decision mak …
