Food challenge is daunting at $29 a week
- Written by Dr. Timothy Moore
I read recently where Greg Station, the mayor of Phoenix (Arizona), tried to live on $29 during a weeklong SNAP Experience program hosted by the Arizona Community Action Association. The amount of money allotted Station for food is the average food budget for a SNAP recipient per week. That's roughly $4.14 a day.
Living on $4.14 a day is next to impossible in this economy. How could Station – or anyone for that matter – stretch such a sum to make it throughout the day without sacrificing his or her health? The mayor, incidentally, didn't succeed. He lost four pounds, though, due to a lack of healthy and nutritious food.
CNBC reported that 47.36 million Americans are living on food stamps. Learning to purchase the right food to eat is the key to budgeting, however. The challenge that Station faced during his eye-opening experience was trying to purchase food within the budget, which was nil at best.
High-cost meats, for example, can consume up to 40 percent of one's budget. A T-bone steak can cost anywhere from $4.50 a pound and up. For a SNAP recipient, that means he or she would have to purchase meat that is far less in order to survive. That's why Station was forced to purchase food with very little nutritional value. His menu consisted of "Ramen noodles, pasta, chicken and a few extra cups of coffee to fill his belly."
If I were in a similar predicament, I'm confident I'd know what to do. A nutritious meal of fruits and vegetables would go a long way. But when I think about those SNAP recipients, $29 a week for food is a pittance that some of them, more than likely, would spend at MacDonald's, if the $29 weren't in the form of food stamps.
Here's what I would do if I were forced to live on such a measly ration each week: I would go to the grocery store or market and purchase reasonably priced food based on a seven-day plan. Since I'm a vegan, I'd cook daily meals from fresh fruits and vegetables without sacrificing taste, nutrients and variety.
Just like Mayor Station, I decided to take the challenge myself. With $29 to spend, I went shopping at Aldi, Kroger and Wal-Mart. I purchased frozen green beans, broccoli florets, frozen corn, California medley, multi-color peppers, quick oats, iceburg lettuce, Almond Breeze, a box of instant brown rice, Fresh Classic garden salad, no salt canned diced tomatoes, two 15 oz. cans of organic black beans, a bag of Gala apples, two zucchinis squash and a box of corn flakes. I spent $27.91 with $1.09 left over.
Next, I put the meals to a test. I was able to eat three meals a day with breakfast being my main meal. I ate oatmeal one day and corn flakes the next day. I rotated the oatmeal and corn flakes and included an apple or half an apple on the side.
For lunch, I ate a 15-bean soup that I'd made for the week with a small salad on the side. On another day, I had black beans and brown rice, which took about 10 minutes to prepare with a small salad on the side. I also mixed some frozen veggies with it.
Dinner was simple to make. I made zucchini into a pasta and made sauces from the avocado and canned tomatoes. I also made a salad with a lot of the frozen veggies. With only $29 to spend, I ate healthy and lost 5 pounds during the challenge.
Now if you had to stretch $29, how would you do it? Remember now, you're on a strict budget. Would you go for the T-bone steak or purchase inexpensive Ramen noodles with very little nutritional value just as Mayor Station did? Shopping on essentially a non-existent budget is quite a challenge for some people, I'm sure. It can be very frustrating as well. You'd just have to shop wisely.
It's difficult when you have to count every penny. In this case, I don't think coupons would make that much of a difference if you only had $29 a week to spend. Buying healthy is the way I would advise you to go. But if you're not used to purchasing healthy foods with relatively little money, you just might find yourself at a disadvantage. The only option is purchasing inferior food.

The solo private pilot stated that prior to the 14 CFR Part 91, personal cross-country flight, he preheated the airplane engine prior to takeoff. During the takeoff roll the engine started running rough. The pilot said he applied carburetor heat and continued the takeoff because there was not enough runway left to stop. The engine lost all power about 5 miles south of the airport, and during the ensuing emergency forced landing, the left wing struck a tree. The airplane came to rest inverted in a creek. The pilot said there were no preaccident mechanical anomalies with the airplane, but he suspected ice in a gas line, or restricted airflow to the carburetor from fresh snow, or possibly a stuck valve. The airplane sustained structural damage to the wings and fuselage during the accident.

Fresh Parsley Made Easy
Parsley is so good for you, full of nutrients and with more iron than spinach, but once you wash it, it can be challenging to chop because it sticks to your knife and fingers and stains everything it touches bright green.
The solution is to have your parsley perfectly dry before you chop it. This is especially helpful when making a recipe like our Lentil Bulgur Salad which calls for a great deal of chopped fresh parsley. It took me a while to figure this out, but what a difference drying the leaves makes, and this also holds true if you're chopping cilantro or any delicate green leafy herb.
So plan ahead, especially if your recipe calls for a significant amount of parsley. Wash the leaves well, spin or blot all moisture, then let the leaves air dry standing upright. Now chop, chop, chop.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - Kentucky officials are informing more than 1,000 Medicaid clients of a computer security breach that many have resulted in private information being released.
The Cabinet for Health and Family Services says an employee of a subcontractor responded to a telephone computer scam that allowed unauthorized remote access to a computer that contained information on Medicaid clients. The statement says there isn't any evidence that the Medicaid database was accessed.
Rodney Murphy, executive director of the CHFS Office of Administrative and Technology Services, says the scam was most likely directed at getting money from the worker, but other possibilities can't be ruled out.
Free credit monitoring for one year is being offered to those who were affected.

Associated Press
MOKPO, South Korea (AP) -- Fresh questions arose about whether quicker action by the captain of a doomed ferry could have saved lives, even as rescuers scrambled to find hundreds of passengers still missing Friday and feared dead.
Officials also offered a rare look at their investigations, saying they were looking into whether a crewman's order to abruptly turn the ship contributed to the 6,852-ton Sewol ferry tilting severely to the side and filling with water Wednesday.
The confirmed death toll from Wednesday's sinking off southern South Korea was 28, the coast guard said. Most of bodies have been found floating in the ocean because divers have been continually prevented from getting inside the ship by strong currents and bad weather. But 48 hours after the sinking the number of deaths was expected to rise sharply with about 270 people missing, many of them high school students on a class trip. Officials said there were 179 survivors.
New questions were raised by a transcript of a ship-to-shore exchange and interviews by The Associated Press that showed the captain delayed evacuation for half an hour after a South Korean transportation official ordered preparations to abandon ship.
The order at 9 a.m. by an unidentified official at the Jeju Vessel Traffic Services Center to put on lifejackets and prepare for evacuation came just five minutes after a Wednesday morning distress call by the Sewol ferry. A crewmember on the ferry, which was bound for Jeju island, replied that "it's hard for people to move."
The ship made a sharp turn between 8:48 a.m. and 8:49 a.m. Korea time, but it's not known whether the turn was made voluntarily or because of some external factor, Nam Jae-heon, a director for public relations at the Maritime Ministry, said Friday.
The captain has not spoken publicly about his decision making, and officials aren't talking much about their investigation, which includes continued talks with the captain and crew. But the new details about communication between the bridge and transportation officials follow a revelation by a crewmember in an interview with The Associated Press that the captain's eventual evacuation order came at least half an hour after the 9 a.m. distress signal.
Meanwhile, strong currents and rain made rescue attempts difficult again as they entered a third day. Divers worked in shifts to try to get into the sunken vessel, where most of the missing passengers are thought to be, said coast guard spokesman Kim Jae-in.
Coast guard officials said divers began pumping air into the ship Friday, but it wasn't immediately clear if the air was for survivors or for a salvage operation. Officials said in a statement that divers were still trying to enter the ship.
South Korean officials also offered a glimpse into their investigation of what may have led to the sinking. They said the accident happened at a point where the ferry from Incheon to Jeju had to make a turn. Prosecutor Park Jae-eok said in a briefing that investigators were looking at whether the third mate ordered a turn whose degree was so sharp that it caused the ship to list. The captain was not on the bridge at the time, Park said, adding that officials were looking at other possible causes, too.
Park also said crews' testimonies differed about where the captain was when the ship started listing. As that listing continued, the captain was "near" the bridge, Park said, but he couldn't say whether the captain was inside or right outside the bridge.
The operator of the ferry added more cabin rooms to three floors after its purchase the ship, which was built in Japan in 1994, an official at the private Korean Register of Shipping told the AP on Friday.
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the person was not allowed to discuss matters under investigation, said the extension work between October 2012 and February 2013 increased the Sewol's weight by 187 tons and added enough room for 117 more people. The Sewol had a capacity of 921 when it sank.
As is common in South Korea, the ship's owner, Chonghaejin Marine Co. Ltd, paid for a safety check by the Korean Register of Shipping, the official said, which found that the Sewol passed all safety tests, including whether the ship could stabilize in the event of tilting to the right or to the left after adding more weight.
Ian Winkle, a British naval architect and ferry expert said many ships have such modifications, to increase capacity, for instance. "In this particular case, it would have affected the stability by a small amount, but as it seems from the structure of the vessel, generally, it looks as if it was adequate to meet statutory regulations," Winkle said.

engineering, and science, as well as an IP program that offers young people more knowledge about how to navigate these environments.
Dr. Baeslack said that one could certainly learn something about innovation and entrepreneurship in the classroom, but that young students might gain even more by spending a few weeks, a summer, or a semester with a startup company. "That's how they really get excited, when they work in the real world."
Mr. Morgenthaler asked the panel's response to a comment by an earlier president of Case Western Reserve that "commercialization and technology transfer should only come through the minds of our graduates." He asked why universities in the past had not been more commercialization minded. Dr. Proenza suggested three points. The first, he said, was historical. American universities had engaged with commercial enterprises in agriculture and the mechanical arts since 1862, when the Morill Land Grant Colleges Act set up the mechanism. It took another century for universities to do that for other areas. Second, most university presidents as late as 1990 disapproved of working with industry in any way. Third, only recently have people come to see that being strategic partners with industry can be in universities'—as well as the country's—interest.
Universities' Responsibility to the Community
Dr. Baeslack said he agreed with those three points, and added that public universities had more sense of responsibility to serve the community than many private universities. At private universities, he said, many faculty members have learned that their role is to do research, make discoveries, and publish results. "It comes back to the reward system, how strongly it defines the culture, and how difficult it is to change." In recent years, he noted, it has changed at some private universities, notably MIT and Stanford. "I think that the importance of strategic partnerships with industry and the community is driving changes in the reward system and the expectations placed on faculty. But it's been slow in coming. My goal is to see that accelerate much more rapidly."
A questioner asked about the extent to which major research universities collaborate on issues of economic development. Dr. Proenza said there was a great deal more collaboration than may be apparent from the "outside." In defined areas of expertise, such as in polymer science, were longstanding partnerships, and "we are increasingly seeing other opportunities."
Dr. Harris pursued the question of collaboration, asking if there were any advantage to greater cooperation on IP issues, perhaps by bringing legal staffs together or creating a single point of contact. Dr. Proenza said that the greatest benefit might be in gaining contacts outside one's area of expertise. Dr. Braeslak agreed that universities do collaborate widely, certainly in materials sciences, health sciences, cancer research, and energy. With the growing emphasis on interdisciplinary research, different universities can bring different strengths, and help in searching for third-party funding and partnerships.

Major Crash kills 3, closes I-77 for hours
Updated On: Apr 01 2013 04:21:05 AM CDT
Virginia State Police say three people have been killed and more than 20 are injured following a 95-vehicle pileup on Interstate 77 near the Virginia-North Carolina border.
The Virginia Department of Transportation says traffic is backed up about 8 miles.
State police say a series of wrecks began around 1:15 p.m. Sunday in the southbound lanes in the area of Fancy Gap Mountain in southwest Virginia. There was heavy fog at the time.
State police spokeswoman Corinne Geller says several vehicles caught fire, but the blazed has been put out.
The interstate is closed in both directions. Northbound lanes are closed so emergency vehicles can get to the southbound lanes.
Interstate 77 has since reopened in both directions.

This recipe combines grilled shrimp brushed with lemon butter and sprinkled with Creole seasoning. The shrimp is added to a mixture of red bell pepper slices simmered in olive oil with garlic and onions. Alfredo sauce is then added to the shrimp and peppers and laced lightly with cayenne pepper to kick it up a bit. This mixture is then served over a bed of angel hair pasta. I created this about two years ago on a whim and it has become a family favorite. The trick is not to make it too spicy - but the flavors of the grilled shrimp, sweet peppers and light amount of spicy alfredo is a real delight in our house. I doubt this recipe is original, but it is something my family asks me to make for special occasions because it is a favorite. The timing of the cooking of the pasta, peppers and shrimp is essential to avoid overcooking any of the ingredients. Think ahead, go for it and enjoy!

The Chicago Association of REALTORS® Good Neighbor Awards were created in 1992 to encourage rehabilitation and redevelopment in the city's North Side neighborhoods. Today, it has evolved into a showcase for ground-breaking rehabs and development throughout the nine-county Chicago metropolitan area, rewarding visionaries for "breaking the mold" and setting new standards of excellence.
Initially, the award was given to property owners whose property rehabs helped bring a positive impact to the surrounding neighborhood. Today, the award goes much farther – it recognizes those whose efforts go "above and beyond" their peers, conquering challenges and bringing innovative ideas to the marketplace.
The first office-to-residential conversion in Chicago's Loop is a prime example of a past award recipient. The developer overcame numerous challenges with City Departments, neighboring buildings and the marketplace. Once a unique concept, it is now the standard bearer in downtown Chicago. Numerous other developers have expanded on this concept which has ultimately created a community where one had never existed.
Other examples of award winners include some of the first loft conversions of old, underutilized, abandoned industrial buildings that transformed an area referred to as "Skid Row" into a trendy neighborhood with restaurants, shops and nightlife called West Loop Gate.
The award has also been given for the salvation of historical properties and the restoration of architecturally significant buildings from the wrecking ball. A special award was given for the total restoration of a rare mansion located amidst an industrial area which had formerly been one of Chicago's elite neighborhoods. The area is also home to the church that Mary Todd Lincoln attended regularly when she returned to Chicago after President Lincoln's assassination. In the shadows of one of the largest trade show centers in the world, is a jewel of a mansion, now being used as a fully functioning bed and breakfast.
The Good Neighbor Award has also been given for tackling stigmatized properties. An example is the condo conversion of a multi-unit rental property which was the scene of an arson fire that killed seven people. After much struggle and several attempts by other developers, it was finally re-developed, brought back on the tax rolls, and eliminated an eyesore within a residential community.
The Good Neighbor Award recognizes properties that offer unique amenities and bonus facilities, often strengthening community pride. For instance, the "Stamp Works" project faced an ugly, decrepit viaduct. To beautify the area, the developer worked in conjunction with local artists to paint murals on the viaduct, bringing beauty to this former blot on the landscape. In this case, as in many others, developers that seek and utilize input from the neighborhood organizations are given special consideration when judging the award.
Developers that take special care to "fit in" with the neighborhood also qualify for Good Neighbor Awards. This is especially true when new construction blends seamlessly with the details of turn-of-the-century buildings. In the case of 2002 Bruce Abrams award-winner, "Townhouses of Lakewood Balmoral," is a property that matches so well with its neighbors, that it is hard to tell which is the new construction and which is over 100 years old.

How to Get Rid of Ingrown Hair Scars
Ingrown hairs can occur on any area of the body where hair grows, though they are more likely on places where you regularly remove hair. Men commonly experience ingrown hairs on the face, back, chest, legs and arms. Women tend to get ingrown hairs on the bikini area, legs and armpits. If you pick or squeeze ingrown hairs, you may damage the skin permanently. Scars from ingrown hairs are quite common. Thankfully, there are many things you can do to reduce the appearance of ingrown hair scars.
- 1
Exfoliate the area, using a body scrub and loofah. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, thereby encouraging new skin cell production. Less damaged skin cells will be apparent sooner when you exfoliate regularly.
- 2
Wear sunscreen on the scarred area. The sun will often worsen the appearance of ingrown hair scars. In order to fade the scars more quickly, keep the area protected from the sun's damaging rays. Choose a full-protection sunscreen with a high SPF rating.
- 3
Apply a bleaching cream to the scars. Ingrown hair scars usually have darker pigmentation than surrounding skin. A bleaching cream will lighten the scars, helping them to blend in with the rest of your skin. You'll need to apply most over-the-counter bleaching creams twice a day for several weeks before you see results.
- 4
Try rubbing cocoa butter on the ingrown hair scars. Cocoa butter has been shown to fade scars and encourage healthy skin.
- 5
Visit a dermatologist. A doctor can prescribe you stronger bleaching or fading creams. Ask your doctor about Retin-A creams. These topical treatments encourage cell regeneration, meaning that you'll have a fresher, more even skin tone with regular use.
- 6
Get laser treatment on the ingrown hair scars. Laser light will target the hyperpigmentation in the scars, thereby lightening the area. In addition, laser treatments encourage collagen production so your skin will look firmer and more even. Laser treatments can be quite expensive, and you'll generally need multiple sessions to achieve satisfactory results.
- 7
Talk to your dermatologist about chemical peels to lighten the ingrown hair scars. Depending on the severity of the scars, you can opt for light, medium or deep chemical peels. Your skin will be burned by the chemicals, but after it heals, younger skin will be revealed. If you opt for a series of peels, you'll generally have better results.
- 8
Consider microdermabrasion on the scarred area. The top layers of your skin will be buffed away by a mini sandblaster-type device. The skin below will be younger and less damaged so the scars will not be as apparent.

On Friday evening authorities temporarily closed down lanes of traffic on Broadway near its intersection with Orange as they responded to what they say was a three car collision. Authorities said that a 29-year old female, an 8-year old boy and a 6-year old girl were all transported to a hospital with injuries that do not appear life-threatening.

does your pen0r look a lot bigger when you go from 15-18% BF down to 8-10% BF???
I know there's a fat pad at the base of your pen0r and also your penis looks bigger because your thighs and waist look smaller, but just how significant is this difference??

Alphabeat have made public a music video promoting "Heat Wave", the latest single from their 2009 album "The Beat Is...". Made by the band themselves who "took all the filmed parts and cut it together", the clip features footage of their live performance in some outdoor concerts.
"It was wildly exciting to be part of the whole process where people have been extremely helpful," member Rasmus Nagel said as quoted by Gaffa. "I must admit that I really have renewed respect for the editing. It is indeed not easy."
The video reportedly was shown for the very first time during a concert in Aarhus. "It's always something special to play for a Danish audience, and so we're even from Jutland, so of course it must be shown here first. It means really something for us to pay a little back to our amazing fans in Denmark," another member Anders Reinholdt explained.

■ What: "Let Freedom Sing" Independence Day Celebration by East Tennessee Symphony Orchestra.
■ When: 6 p.m. today, July 3.
■ Where: Veterans Park near Collegedale City Hall (accessible by foot).
■ Admission: Free.
■ Website: www.etsomusic.org.
Dr. Brian Liu is the new music director of the East Tennessee Symphony Orchestra. He is on the adjunct faculty at Washington Adventist University and on the artist faculty at the Roberson School of Music.
The East Tennessee Symphony Orchestra will "Let Freedom Sing" at its Independence Day Celebration tonight, July 3, in Collegedale. We suspect at least one of the selections will be a chance to "hear children sing."
Along with the usual assortment of marches and patriotic tunes performed by the orchestra will be the movie theme song that is sweeping the nation: "Let It Go" from Disney's "Frozen."
New music director Dr. Brian Liu will take up the baton at 8 p.m., with guest soloist Jordan Otis, a Collegedale native, leading the crowd in singing "The Star-Spangled Banner."
Other guest performers will be Lou Wamp and Bluetastic Fangrass, who will begin playing at 6:45 p.m., and the Chattanooga Girls Choir.
Other music during the evening will feature selections from "The Phantom of the Opera," "Back to the Future" and "Star Wars," along with patriotic music including Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture," marches by Sousa and "American Salute" by Morton Gould.
In addition to "Frozen," Otis will perform songs from "The Sound of Music," "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" from "The Wizard of Oz" and lead the crowd in "America the Beautiful."
Otis, a Collegedale native, is pursuing her master's degree in vocal performance at University of Redlands in California.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Crod Convienant location spg room was great Room was great although quality of bed was superb however noise from the court yard was horrible early in the morning October 6, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Firefox Not so great This hotel is mediocre. It's okay if you're only looking for a place to lay your head in the wharf. But don't expect too much. I'm a platinum member and my loyalty has been rewarded two weeks in a row with a view of the rooftop air conditioners. March 7, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Peter57 Bad location and service Many hotel rooms are facing the street. Street cars cause vibrations that even move the bed and shake the windows at night. Staff is very courteous when it comes to offering to help but needed to follow up 3-4 times to see it through. June 21, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by EmryDby Concierge Service The Concierge service was exceptional. Jhay Jhay and Jennifer were great searching out and offering recommendations for dinner, entertainment, etc. They offered discount coupons and made reservations for us during our 3 day visit. December 16, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by AliO Sheraton Fisherman's Wharf We stayed here for my friend's 50th birthday weekend. The front receptionist, Margarita was awesome. She was funny and helpful. She was able to upgrade our room to a suite to accommodate the 3 of us better. She also comped the room champagne and appetizers for my friends birthday. The hotel is very convenient to Fisherman's wharf and the embarcadaro, the trolley line and other areas. The hotel was remodeled and it is clean and nice. I would stay here again. December 27, 2011

Rated 4 out of 5 by FrankReview Sheraton April 2013 Stay This is the 3rd time that we have stayed at this hotel. The staff is very professional and attentive. The only issues we had during this stay were (1) the thermostat not working in our room; engineering came out and simply replaced the batteries in the thermostat. (2) there was a power outage in the area when we arrived to check in so this delayed our check in by about 45 minutes and (3) there seems to be a good amount of noise from both outside and inside the hotel. From inside, it seems to be from guest and outside from delivery and loading of trucks (even at 11 PM and again at 6-7 AM). Our room was even on the top floor and there was aconsiderable amount of noise from other rooms. April 8, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Debr Horrible decor, everything closes...room service pool etc before you make it back from the game! Limo never showed up after we booked it, Prices were ASTRONOMICAL. I WILL STAY at the square and taxi to wharf...this was way expensive for a view of a garage!! May 6, 2013

Rated 1 out of 5 by Holytrain wi book if you can't wi-fi First the staff was satisfactory. The fire pits outside were nice The room was clean but felt like you had things crawling on you. The room was a little below average. No refrigerator no micowave, the bathroom had no night light if you need to go to the bathroom during the night. My wife slipped and fell in the tub while taking a shower. The tub was somewhat curved at the bottom there was very little grip & with the soft water when you soaped up made the tub very slippery. If you want wi-fi in the room you had to pay $14.95 a day. REALLY! !!!! Even McDonalds gives you free wi-fi. It was a toss up as far as what was worst this hotel or the plane ride in on United. I wouldn't book either! October 4, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Alberto Sheraton Fisherman Wharf Excellent location, room, breakfast. Friendly staff and concierge. May 14, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Nonnie52 Met our expectations! We had a great stay in San Francisco. So convenient. June 17, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Yoshi526 This hotel was very dissapointing The communication is terrible. I was never informed that the hotel would be charging and additional $100.00 when I booked the room for incidentals. I understand why after the fact but that is not right for this establishment to charge unauthorized amounts from my account. I hWave never stayed in a hotel that I had to pay for coffee. The customer service behind the food counter was terrible. She couldn't get our order right two times in a row. I believe there was a language barrier and her attitude was very unprofessional. We came to relax and enjoy the beautiful weather in the evening time and be able to sit outside with the nice fire pits and loungers. Unaware to us they are not readily available for the guests to use. They are on a time schedule for the hotels interest first I believe. It was only 11pm and very upsetting to me. I will say the staff at the reservations desk were all very kind. I know it wasn't their fault and I did appreciate what they tried to compensate us with. (Breakfast at their buffet and a thousand rewards miles. Although not totally aware how that SPG program works yet. For me personally, I had much higher expectations and I would not recommend the Sheraton Fisherman's Wharf location to my friends and family. May 7, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by edwarde Strange Suite policy I was given Suite Awards by Starwood. I used one of them on this trip to upgrade our double room.. When we got into the suite my wife was feeling sick so I thought I would sleep on the pullout sofa bed. Much to my shock I could not open it because it was secured by a plastic. In order to the use the sofa bed I had to call housekeeping and be charged $25 for using a room which I had already paid for.. Also, when I took off the cushions I saw the notice that advised of me this policy and that I had to call housekeeping no later than 10 p.m It was now 11 p.m. How would I have known to do this until I took the cushions off the sofa??? Nobody told me about this and although I had stayed in a Sheraton Fisherman's Wharf suite many times before, I had never encounted this policy until Dec. 22. Our second shock came when I had ordered a limo. through from the Concierge, to take us to the Sheraton Palace for a party. The limo was ordered to take us there and pick us up. When it was time to pick us up I called the limo driver and he said he would be at the Palace in 10 minutes. After a half hour of waiting in the rain we called and told me that would not be picking us up. He obviously was going to make more money with another pickup. We had to find our way back to the Shraton FIsherman's Wharf on our own. Have you ever tried to find a taxi in San Francisco in a rain storm? It took us two hours. This was very disappointing. December 24, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Anders34 Good for Tourists not for Business Although conveniently located close to tourist activities in the Fisherman's Wharf neighborhood, it was not close to the business areas of San Francisco. Further, the dated construction, although recently remodeled, made for a drafty cold room and noisy atmosphere. Food service was great and the dinner options in the cafe were decent. Unfortunately I left my scarf at a table at the cafe and the next morning when I inquired about it being picked up by the staff, without looking around or asking anyone, the concierge told me there was nothing found. When I asked if they could at least ask anyone at the front desk or leave a note, they said it would not help. January 14, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Irish86 Not a Category 5 Hotel I'd like to start by saying that I've been staying at Starwood hotels for years. My parents were SPG members, and when it was time for me to pick a hotel allegiance, Starwood was a clear and easy choice based on the years of positive experiences I've had at their establishments. The Sheraton Fisherman's Wharf fell far below my Starwood expectations. This is a slightly nicer version of a motel. The hallways are not heated and were freezing during my stay. The hotel rooms themselves do not have central air/heat but rather are controlled by a very dated radiator in the corner of the room. There is absolutely no insulation in between hotel rooms and the hallway - I could hear noises above, below, and outside of my room. The shower was so small I could barely fit in it (I am 5'6 and 130lbs), and the cups provided for the room were plastic. Two of the 3 hotel elevators in the 1st floor lobby were broken (we were there on a Friday/Saturday) and on at least three occasions, my party and several others in the hallway waited for more than 5 minutes just to get into an elevator. I have never written a review on a restaurant, hotel, etc until now - but this experience was just so terrible that I felt obligated to share with others. Do not book this hotel and expect to receive the same quality as another Starwood property. At best - this hotel should be a category 2. I will not stay here again, would not recommend it to anyone else, and am afraid my opinion of Starwood hotels is greatly diminished. November 13, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Jimmy2011 Good location but not deserved of category 5 The hotel location is nice if you want to explore the tourist area of Fisherman's wharf but , for the money, the hotel is not good value. The staff were, for the duration of my stay, helpful and courteous but I did encounter some serious issues during my 3-night stay that required managment's intervention. The room was adequate, clean with comfortable bed, but the room was noisy. Check-in exceeded ten minutes and the Gold/Platnum check-in desk is so poorly differentiated that it might as well not exist. If you're a Platinum SPG member don't expect any different treatment than a guest without status. I arranged our stay at this hotel and my colleagues, with no status, had nicer rooms than I did. For a Sheraton property at this price you might expect a Club Lounge. Not at this property. Do not be fooled by the pretty pictures on the hotel's website showing quaint fire pit and lounging areas. These are located along the through-way where all guests are dropped off and picked up. The room amenities are not commensurate with other category 5 Starwood properties. The breakfast options are also paultry for a hotel that boasts being an exclusive property where $24.95 will get you a disappointing selection of buffet items. No a la carte options at this hotel. The fitness center is a bright spot in this otherwise disappointing property. The concierge desk was also very helpful in booking our half day wine tour in Sonoma. Bottom line...if you're looking for a reasonably priced hotel to enjoy the best that San Francisco has to offer, stay somewhere else. September 13, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by marmot Would not recommend this hotel We stayed in many hotels withhin the our travel in the US, but this hotel was a disapointment. The staff was very rude when we arrived. The first friendly staff in the hotel was concierge david, thank you for this. The room was not cleaned daily, when I went to front desk, I was told we had the sign on the door, not to disturb. But this could not be, because we didnt put this on the door. Great location, but that's it. The Rooms are nicely furnished. But it is an older building. You can hear the people in the next room! No Wifi in the room, you have to pay extra! And this in a sheraton! June 30, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by pah15 Very nice stay here Good location minutes from the Wharfe area. Room was spacious with a lovely comfy bed. Very clean. Good WiFi. Nice pool. Didn't have any food here as loads of places nearby to eat. October 2, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by KN99 POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE I live in Pennsylvania. booked a reward room at this hotel in SF for my daughter. After booking, I called and confirmed all details with the hotel directly to ensure there would be no issues checking in. Upon arrival, the desk clerk said the room was booked for the same date but for next year then began giving my daughter a hard time. My daughter called me and put me on the phone and the desk clerk had attitude and was very rude. My daugther was finally checked in after an hour and a half. Very disappointing, wouldn't reccomend this hotel or any other Sheraton after this experience. November 26, 2013

Young and old can appreciate animals, and at summer fairs, they're the main attraction.
In central Wisconsin, the Athens Fair sets up shop right in the middle of downtown.
Since it doesn't charge admission, organizers rely on entertainment from the farm to keep the crowds happy.
4-H-ers showed off more than 150 cows, and both kids and adults enjoyed horse competitions all weekend.
"We get a lot of people to come just to look at the horses," junior showmanship competition winner Madelyn Kulas said. "They love seeing the horses and I love telling them about them. They're just great animals to be around and I love bringing them and showing them off."
"I guess the animals have been my first love," said Gary Beastrom, who's the fair board's secretary. "I love animals. I'm a retired agriculture teacher so it kind of falls into place."
People also came out Sunday to watch the parade that goes through town.
This year's featured performer was the University of Wisconsin marching band.

If you're trying to achieve a healthy weight, you've probably formed a close relationship with your scale. You know what you weigh today, what you weighed yesterday, and what you hope to weigh tomorrow.
This numbers game is an integral part of most weight-loss programs. Some experts, however, wonder whether the scale is the only — or even the best — way to measure your success.
The scale is not always the best indicator of progress. The scale does tell you whether or not you are gaining or losing weight, but that is all it does.
By focusing only on weight, the scale can also lull you into a false sense of progress, experts say. Counting pounds doesn't tell you whether you're losing muscle or fat.
Instead of being a slave to the scale, focus on your health. Monitor your weight-loss program with a variety of measures that can give you a more accurate and meaningful picture of what's actually happening to your body.
Here are some alternative ways to make sure your weight-control program is working:
You can find out a lot by using a tape measure. Changes can show up quickly in the places where you store excess weight — hips for women, the waist for men. The health benefits are evident with small changes, such as a 1-inch reduction in waist size.
It's also easy to monitor your performance in 2 areas that form the core of a weight-control program: diet and exercise. Compare what you eat with standards in the federal government's dietary guidelines, which illustrate a balanced diet high in fiber and low in fats and refined sugar. Aim for about 30 minutes of exercise most days of the week. You should aim to include moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity for at least 40 minutes a day for at least 3 to 4 days per week.
Behaviors that help control weight can also decrease your relative risk for developing weight-related diseases, such as diabetes, cancers of the uterus, breast, prostate, and colon, and heart disease. Blood pressure, resting heart rate, blood sugar, cholesterol, and triglycerides are good objective ways to track progress.
Lean muscle mass keeps you fit and strong while it stokes your fat-burning capability. Healthy weight control aims to decrease body fat while preserving or increasing lean muscle mass. Body composition is hard to measure and is usually done by your health care provider using Body Mass Index (BMI), which takes into consideration both height and weight. Still, if you're following a fad diet that burns muscle as well as fat, monitoring your body composition can help you judge the safety of your results.

Worth A Try For Social Anxiety

I have suffered with social anxiety disorder for quite some time to the point where it affected my personal relationships and prevented me from furthering my education...Speaking with a therapist and Effexor XR seemed to help my symptoms (extreme self-consciousness, unable to make contact with others, fear of authority figures, etc) for awhile, but I discontinued prescription medication due to the many side effects that the drug caused me (the tiredness, brain "zaps", and memory problems were especially troublesome). After being off of medication for a few years I felt my SAD symptoms beginning to reappear...my interest in natural/alternative medicine made me want to give Theanine Serene a try and I have been very happy with the results! I take 2 Theanine Serene tablets daily along with Bach Flower Essences (Mimulus and Larch) and this helps to take the edge off my SAD symptoms.

I purchased this for pms: anxiety, stress, irritability, insomnia etc. It thoroughly relaxed me after the first dose (before bed) but it kept me awake. After the third night it started having a sedative effect, including day time doses. I purchased it based on the reviews but found out afterwards that it reduces brain serotonin levels and increases dopamine levels. I take ssri's and experience high serotonin levels on a cyclic basis due to the meds (which coincide with the pms symptoms) and found it to be effective in reducing serotonin and therefore the associated symptoms. At other times it decreased the effectiveness of the meds. Do your research if you are on ssri's, maoi's or meds that affect dopamine levels. I will take only when serotonin levels are high, will resume taking Now's Super Cortisol Support with Relora for stress and insomnia which is the better choice for me and works.
It Worked For Me!

I am usually a fairly calm person, but having unusual anxiety about personal circumstances I tried this product. Within an hour of taking it I felt much better and back to myself again! I have tried it several times and it worked each time . Definitely recommend it.
Awesome wouldn't do without it

I was looking for a natural muscle relaxer, but wow I got more. Seems like it works over time, but now I won't take a day off. It gives me a sense of well-being and peace. I love everybody!! and nothing seems to get me frustrated or anxious (it takes a lot), I give it five stars
Tastes Awful! Smells Bad!

I'm taking this as a mood enhancer. Not sure if it's working or if it's just the placebo effect. I do feel more cheerful, so who knows. However, I have to hold my nose to swallow them because they smell and taste so bad it actually makes me gag. I doubt I will buy these gain because of that.

Another year, another wave of quirky British bands pouring into the States. It's got all the makings of a new British Invasion. Well, except for one thing: the invasion. For every Bloc Party and Franz Ferdinand that succeeds in North America, there are dozens more that barely make it across the pond and dozens of critics ready to lump 'em all under the same "art rock" or "New Wave revival" categories. The thing is, many of these bands come from a different lineage, one that began at the end of the Seventies, when groups like the Jam, the Specials, and Squeeze were deciding what to do after punk but without forgetting it. There are plenty of new bands with this same attitude, that postpunk doesn't have to be mopey and melodramatic. And they've got the same problem too: an American audience far smaller than they deserve.
1. The Ordinary Boys: Three albums into their career, the boys from Worthing have become household names in England; frontman Sam Preston is a bona fide TV personality, starring in the 2006 season of Celebrity Big Brother. On this side of the Atlantic, though, the Boys barely have a foot in the door, and dammit, it's just not fair. The band's 2006 offering, How to Get Everything You Ever Wanted in Ten Easy Steps, shows that its sound has evolved from a straight-up Specials/Smiths/Jam mix to one that's more forward-thinking and experimental. Yes, that does involve electronics. But the Boys' use of blips and bleeps is more of an added flavor than a primary ingredient. And Prestons' lyrics are as whip-smart and chastising as ever, calling out the usual cultural suspects (fame, the music industry, et cetera) while not getting too serious ("Ballad of an Unrequited Self-Love Affair").
2. Maxïmo Park: On their 2005 debut, A Certain Trigger, these four blokes from Newcastle established themselves as the band to watch ... in England, of course. That's why they can get away with releasing an "extras" album so early in their career. This year's Missing Songs is just that a collection of B-sides and demo versions of songs from Trigger. Whereas the Ordinary Boys built their foundation on ska-driven beats, Maxmo Park has more eggs in the New Wave basket. And by New Wave, we mean XTC, not A Flock of Seagulls. Though Maxmo Park has the danceable tunes to please the Franz/Bloc Party crowd, its style is vibrant, pop-minded, and, at times, punk. There's no reason Maxmo Park shouldn't be next year's big import. Besides, we Americans love bands with umlauts in their names.
3. The Holloways: Having formed in 2004 and with one album under their belt, these North Londoners are still new kids on the postpunk block. But you'd never know it, judging by the stellar songwriting and sharp lyricism on said debut album, So This Is Great Britain? With two-part harmonies and a heavy dose of ska and Sixties pop, the Holloways are one of the few English bands that serve their songs sunny side up. That's not to say they're at all sugar-coated far from it. The album opens with the title track, which shows the "land of hope and glory" in a none-too-rosy light, concluding that "We're all just a bunch of slaves." But they're slaves with good taste.
4. The Pipettes: If it weren't for the occasionally randy lyrical matter, you'd swear the Pipettes' debut album, We Are the Pipettes, was written 40 years ago. Sounding (and looking) like a Phil Spector wet dream, the three birds who front this polka-dotted pop group do their damnedest to make London swinging again. Backed by a band of dudes (known as the Cassettes), the Pipettes aren't post anything, just pure retro ... and a nice break from the norm. You'll find no synthesizers here, just loads of strings, horns, and beats bigger than that hairdo Spector sported at his murder trial.
5. The Rifles: For all the bands that want to relive 1984, the Rifles are right there with 'em, though they're just as interested in 1964. And on their debut album, No Love Lost, they occasionally have it both ways. While the band's contemporary indie-pop influences weigh the heaviest, songs like "Robin Hood" sound like a Merseybeat band after spending a year in modern-day England upbeat, tightly wound pop played with uncanny neatness. Still, it's songs like "Local Boy" which falls somewhere between the Cure and the Newtown Neurotics that populate most of the album and make the Rifles worth seeking out.
6. Little Man Tate: Not to be confused with the long-haired Californian solo act of the same name (or the 1991 Jodie Foster flick, for that matter), Sheffield's Little Man Tate knows where the party is. And, according to the anthemic, Blur-like "House Party at Boothy's," it's one that is likely to catch on. This is one band that's heavy on the pop but, thankfully, equally full of smart (and occasionally smart-ass) lyrics. And there to deliver the verbal goods is Jon Windle, whose swaggering, cocksure style makes him equal parts rock singer, crooner, and acutely observant storyteller. Oh, wait; there's the smart-ass part too, best exemplified by the self-explanatory "Man I Hate Your Band" a song Windle probably prefers to do without an audience sing-along.

|Khairatabad Ganesh Idol
From Telugupedia
Ganesha Chaturthi or Ganesha Festival is a day on which Lord Ganesha, the son of Shiva and Parvati, is believed to bestow his presence on earth for all his devotees. It is also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi or Vinayaka Chavithi in Sanskrit, Kannada, Tamil and Telugu, Chavath ( चवथ ) in Konkani and as Chathaa (चथा) in Nepal Bhasa. It is celebrated as it is the birthday of Lord Ganesha. The festival is observed in the Hindu calendar month of Bhaadrapada, starting on the shukla chaturthi (fourth day of the waxing moon period). Typically, the day falls sometime between 20 August and 15 September. The festival lasts for 10 days, ending on Ananta Chaturdashi. This festival is observed in the lunar month of bhadrapada shukla paksha chathurthi madhyahana vyapini purvaviddha.
The Khairatabad Ganapati Deva in Hyderabad is one of the tallest Ganesha idols made in India during Ganesh Chaturthi festival. In 2008, the height of Khairatabad Ganesh is 46 feet in 2008. A noteworthy and highly commendable aspect this year is the use of eco-friendly natural colors on the huge Ganesh idol.
Sri Ganesh Utsav Committee, Khairatabad, Hyderabad claims the Ganesh idols displayed here, during Ganesh Chaturthi, to be the tallest idols in the world. At the end of the festival, the Ganesh idol is immersed in the Hussain Sagar Lake using cranes.

Went for lunch, arancini tasted almost like the original sicilian ones, one of my favourite starters! Parmigiana with aubergines was so tasty and in the end the sicilian cannolo was oh so good!!
The place is very cozy and the service really good, friendly and effective.
A very good experience overall!more
This one is slightly tucked away in Stoney St, but more conspicuous on Park Street. While the overall experience was very positive both on the food and the service, I've hadn't really heard much about this one, and rightly so, for Yelp has only 2 reviews today, as I write this review!
From sections of the restaurant you can see how closely the upper section holds up the Southeastern train...more
This place has been open since last Oct (according to waiter) but no Yelp reviews yet! I was reluctant at first as I didn't fancy a pizza, but they have a restaurant upstairs with a more expansive menu! (That's 'expansive' not 'expensive')!
I had the quail with bacon, peas, artichoke, white wine & Parmesan shavings (melting!!! - nice). Couldn't have asked for better. Glass of Soave was ok but...more
A really good italian restaurant in a nice place.
Maybe think to book before, the restaurant was almost fullmore

Rugby Football Union scores 3D first
Next month's rugby match between England and Wales looks set to go down in history as Blighty's first live sports event broadcast in 3D. England team sponsor O2 said 40 cinemas across the country will show the 6 February Twickenham match live in 3D. Paul Vaughan, Operations Director for the Rugby Football Union, said: "I hope …
At £12.50 (though that does include a free pint for O2 customers) I wont be rushing to the nearest cinema that has it on - shame.
Paris as I'm sure she has seen plenty of odd shaped balls in 3D
Rugby might actually be a good sport to put into 3D, primarily because it's always tricky to tell when a conversion is going wide. Mind you, shots at goal in football suffer the same problem in 2D. Can't see Formula 1 really gaining much from it, though.
Formula 1 in 3D?
Oh, I don't know... it might be pretty cool, if only for the perverse thrill of thinking "holy shit, that car's coming _right_at_me_!!"
Would be nice...
... if there was a link to the list of cinema's that were showing it.
I tracked it down on the O2 site. Unfortunately it's only being shown at the local Odeous.
Event venue link
I love that you trakced it down, but still didn't post a link! It's here
(Mind you i'll probably now find that the Reg commenting system removes links automatically and you actually did....)
Wrong sport
It is obvious that the most important sport for 3D is Miss of Wet T-Shirt. That would fill cinemas nicely ;)
On yer bike!
"Neither match will be the first time O2 has taken over cinemas in order to pedal the benefits of 3D, however."
Hmm, does this mean that the cinemas will have green leccy generation by pushbike power then? Or did someone peddle them the cheap option?
F1 in 3D
You're kidding, right?
We haven't even got it in HD,......
And if they ver did broadcast in 3D, tickets would be 500 quid to help little Bernie line his pockets and help CVC get their money back!
You're having a giraffe, I can watch it down the pub for free with a pint in my hand, they don't seem to understand rugby fans too well do they?
So, I can go watch the game in a cinema or in a pub? Hummmmm.....
Pint of your finest larger please!
Rugby in 3D
We don't get to see much rugby here in the States, but I have seen enough to know that the thought of seeing rugby played on a movie-theater screen in 3D sounds positively terrifying... especially since they don't serve beer at the theater.
MadMonkOfFunk's got it right. Screw the funny glasses; go watch the game at a nice cozy bar where you can drink beer while you watch.
clearly not a first...
...as a simple web search for "bbc 3d rugby" should prove.
Maybe the satellite broadcast on the 8th March 2008 (RBS Six Nations rugby match between Scotland and England) wasn't for a general public audience, but that is a minor detail that hasn't got anything to do with the technical achievement.
England - Wales match, but not in Wales?
Doesn't seem that there's any cinemas in Wales listed as covering this match. That's a pity - and a potential loss of business for O2. Rugby is highly popular in Wales, and the England match is a cult event!
I don't hear any discussion about the technology (where's the IT angle?).
Like, what resolution super-HD signal are they expecting to distribute? How many cameras are they running at Twickers? Do you get a simulated pitch-side centreline seat to watch the match from, or will the view cut and pan around the place as happens on TV?
If the latter, better have the barf bags handy!

A man is caught taking pictures of a young girl inside an Omaha Walmart. Now the mother is warning other parents to be on the lookout.
Amber Weinacht is a mother of three who just added two new kittens to her family. On Sunday night she went with her son and daughter to the Walmart at 128th and L to pick up kitten food. That's when she first noticed something out of the ordinary. "We were walking into the store and as we were walking into the door I saw a gentleman out front smoking and he was eyeballing my daughter," said Weinacht.
It was only the beginning. "We went to the very back of the store and we were getting kitten food and within a minute I saw him walk by us in the aisle, which obviously meant he followed us back here. I nudged my oldest son and said 'Oh my gosh, he followed us back here.'"
It's then she realized what the man was doing. "My son looked over and the guy was standing about a foot from my daughter. He had his phone out and he was taking pictures." "I was frozen in fear. I've never dealt with an older man looking at my child this way," said Weinacht.
Her son told the man to knock it off. The man then walked away and the family notified a store employee, but she says the store didn't do anything. She wishes store security would have held the man and called police.
Weinacht plans to file a police report and wants to warn other parents to beware. She describes the man as 6'2", 35 to 40 years old, with light brown hair. He was wearing khaki cargo pants and a navy blue hoodie with faded white checkers on it.
Channel 6 did contact Walmart to ask about their protocol in this situation. We will let you know what they say as soon as they respond.

WASHINGTON - Don't cry over spilled milk, but it's probably fair to cry over the spill that resulted in a shattered BCS trophy.
The $30,000 Waterford Crystal trophy toppled over at the University of Alabama athletic facility, sending the perfectly formed crystal football into a million pieces.
The trophy was accidentally knocked over when the father of a player on the team got his foot caught on a rug beneath the trophy display.
Athletic department spokesman Jeff Purinton said the crystal trophy was on display in the Mal Moore Athletic Facility as part of the festivities for the Crimson Tide's spring football game on April 14 in Tuscaloosa.
University officials say they will replace the trophy soon.
It's not the first trophy to take a tumble.
The glass trophy for the 2011 Independence Bowl slipped through the paws of the University of Missouri's mascot, Truman the Tiger, before the game. Truman later tweeted, "Can I borrow some receiver gloves? My paws were a little wet from the rain this morning."
Singer Taylor Swift dropped one of her four Grammy Awards upon entering the press room in 2010. Swift apparently needed help handling all her accolades. Her broken award was reportedly replaced after the ceremony at the Los Angeles' Staples Center.
Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos will never live down the night in 2011 he dropped the Spanish King's Cup which was subsequently run over.
Watching the expression on Spokane Chiefs' captain Chris Bruton's face as the Memorial Cup trophy broke in 2008 says it all.
And then there was Will Ferrell's drop of the Mark Twain Comedy Award in 2011...but this one looks intentional.

Platform | Release Date
PC | February 14, 2011
Developed by thechineseroom
Published by thechineseroom
The Pitch:
Dear Esther is a ghost story, told using first-person gaming technologies. Rather than traditional game-play the focus here is on exploration, uncovering the mystery of the island, of who you are and why you are here. Fragments of story are randomly uncovered when exploring the various locations of the island, making every each journey a unique experience. Dear Esther features a stunning, specially commissioned soundtrack from Jessica Curry.
Forget the normal rules of play; if nothing seems real here, it's because it may just be all a delusion. What is the significance of the aerial – What happened on the motorway – is the island real or imagined – who is Esther and why has she chosen to summon you here? The answers are out there, on the lost beach and the tunnels under the island. Or then again, they may just not be, after all…
By now you have probably read enough articles commenting on Dear Esther's place as a piece of art and its questionable nature as a videogame in the traditional sense. With that in mind, I'm going to move very swiftly into why you should play Dear Esther: not because its some sort of redefinition of our hobby but because it is a genuinely affecting interactive experience.
Set on a Hebridean island, barren of all life, the game sees you tour the location while being told a story of loss, grief and of the lives that are now ending. The primary means of story delivery is the narrator, a voice which I assume belongs to your first person viewpoint. With perfect tone and a genuine sense of humanity, this voice actor ably infects your mind, and the island in front of you, with the emotion of the character.
It's not a one way thing though. The island itself is as much a tool of the narrative as the narrator is a device to bring the island to life. Beautifully rendered, with some truly stunning scenes that far outstrip the original mod, the isle is authentically Hebridean, bringing the cold isolation of Scotland's far West coast. A few vacant buildings and the cave structures hidden below its surface suggest warmth, although much of it lost to the island's described past. The coldness, however, is the lead sensation throughout the brief story. It's a compliment to the writing and the structure of your carefully directed walk that a sense of positivity rises out of isolation.
The positivity doesn't necessarily wane as the story progresses, but you do start to understand the loss our narrator has felt. At times he is angry, at times remorseful, but in the end the game climaxes with a pretty incredible feeling of redemption, both for the island and the narrator himself. Visual cues set around the various parts of the land mass, hints of its dark history, and the narration blend before you hit the big finish. It brought me close to tears. I mean that sincerely and without any desire to sound dramatic. Dear Esther made me feel some pretty strong emotions.
Is Dear Esther a work of art? Is it even a game? I don't really care. What I do care about is the fact that I have enjoyed an extremely well told interactive story, one that is impeccably presented and one which captures the essence of a real-world place like I have never seen any other game manage.
