A word from Skylon
Skylon Restaurant in London's landmark Royal Festival Hall is a hot destination eatery. Inspired by the emblematic sculpture of the 1951 Festival of Britain, Skylon is a stylish restaurant on a grand scale, with formal dining room, smart casual grill and centerpiece bar, each a blend of 1950's-inspired chic and modern design, all with sweeping Thames panoramas through floor-to-ceiling windows. Executive Chef, Adam Gray describes his food as modern British – simple, honest and with a sometimes unusual twist on classic dishes. Skylon is an exciting restaurant for events at the Royal Festival Hall – its bubbling, vivacious ambience sets the tone for pre- or post-event dining. The sommeliers are renowned for the excellence of their knowledge and the charm and ease with which they guide you to great quaffing decisions. Skylon is the metropolitan experience as it should be: refined cuisine, intriguing wines, high culture and heart-lifting views.Continued

- Great serviceJKJKDined on 24/11/2014I asked for a table with a window view as it was a friend's birthday. They obliged and also gave an extra petit four treat with happy birthday written on the plate at the end of the meal which was very kind. The staff were amazing - so lovely and helpful. Attentive without being intrusive. The food was so good. I recommend the Mutton Loin.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- One of my favourite restaurantsMichele8Dined on 24/11/2014It has been a while since I have been to Skylon but whenever I do, I am never disappointed. The food is always excellent, the flavours are superbly put together and the service is impeccable. Most times I go, we have gone through an offer and this time was no exception - but despite the more restricted menu, there is always something that you think will be great and it normally is. Being on the thin side, I also like the fact that the portions are small so that taste wins over quantity. I am always very pleased to with the bread basket and that when you have tea, you get a great variety do petit fours to accompany it so that if you decide not to have a dessert, you can still have something sweet at the end of the meal. Coupled with a great view over the South Bank and really good service, this is a place I will keep coming back to and recommend to all my friends.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Monthiversary DelightsTikkiTowerDined on 17/11/2014As a surprise I booked for my partner and I to have dinner at the restaurant and specifically requested a window table. This was all arranged. We arrived early enough to sit at the bar and enjoy one of the delightful cocktails and delicious hoummus before being escorted through to our table that looked out over the Royal Festival Hall terrace, artistic Festive tree and the lights playing across the river. The waiting staff were helpful, provided excellent service and avoided being intrusive. The food was sublime - we loved the combination of flavours and the portions were just right for a relaxed romantic evening out together. Value was offered with a fixed price for 2 courses each - and as we shared a starter and and a dessert with a main each this worked perfectly. A fabulous evening. Thank you.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Skylon is one of my favourite London restaurants!Mgar22Dined on 16/11/2014Just been taken for a 'landmark birthday +1' Sunday Lunch treat. I love the buzz of the RFH and today was even better as the London Jazz Festival was in full swing! Sunday lunch had been booked on the Open Table 2 or 3 course deal with a special request for a window table. The service throughout our meal was efficient, friendly and professional. Excellent window table was delivered! Great Sunday roast beef, preceded by smoked haddock risotto and followed by a slightly disappointing treacle tart? Wine list a 'tad' pricey but still enough choice across the board to select a couple of pleasant bottles to our satisfaction. Finally yummy petits fours and coffee! Altogether another very pleasant and enjoyable experience which made my birthday very special. Thanks Kids!!! I would thoroughly recommend!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nouvelle Cuisine Lives!goodcookDined on 15/11/2014I ate from the lunch menu, my guests chose from the a la carte. The rolls were warm but boring and there wasn't enough butter for 3 diners. The portions were minuscule, a trend I thought long gone. What there was tasted okay but not more than that. Don't come here for the food but the view, which is stunning. I had pre requested a window table, which we didn't get, despite several being unoccupied during our stay. Nice petit fours came with the bill.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Overpriced and UnderwhelmingCalstarDined on 14/11/2014Very helpful and friendly staff. The quality and taste of the food was good, but I felt the portion sizes were extremely small (and I do mean extreme - I've eaten in similarly priced restaurants with similar fare). I ordered a starter of scallops (smallest scallops I've ever seen) and monkfish (3 small pieces - genuinely looked the size of a starter). Thank goodness my partner offered to share hers with me (duck, which was a reasonable serving) and there was bread to bulk up. Otherwise I'd have left hungry. At £42 for 2 courses, I shouldn't be afraid of leaving hungry.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect MealRobboDined on 14/11/2014Last weekend we enjoyed a pre theatre meal in The SKYLON prior to attending the Royal Festival Hall. The food was exceptional and the service was over and above what we expected. No request was too much for the attentive staff. All carried out with right touch of professionalism and definitely service with a 'genuine' smile, It was my wife's 66th birthday and she commented that the meal was up there with some of the best.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Skylon LunchJulieDined on 14/11/2014Met with a group of friends for lunch. We chose from the set lunch menu which was excellent and good value and the service was polished as well. Thoroughly lovely time.I would recommend this to a friend.
- An evening with a colleague and his spouseOverseaClientDined on 12/11/2014My colleague proposed to have dinner with his wife so he asked what were the good establishments in the area. I suggested Skylon and made the reservation having been there once on the grill side. The choice of menus was just right and appetizing. The wine list was comprehensive and not over the board. The sommelier provided a useful complement of information, being myself a wine enthusiast. The service was discreet and efficient. The mise-en-bouche was nice. Appetizers and main courses were excellent, cooked as per instructions and tasty. Sauces were not overwhelming. Portions were adequate. In summary, a very positive outcome. Only little irritant is the noise level in this large room, not helped by the lack of absorbing material.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fantastic all roundOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 11/11/2014Great atmosphere, view, food and service. The restaurant offer a good menu selection with something to suit all. The Skylon is in a great location and the staff were attentive and professional. We dined at the restaurant for a special occasion and would dine here again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Early Evening Meal - 18:30PJJowettDined on 8/11/2014Very good food and service - had to vacate the table by 20:00, but were able to have a three-course meal and coffee in that time, so no problem. Nice round table, but noise level was very high, so not good for hard of hearing elderly diners!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very pleasant and efficient servicePetrVIPDined on 7/11/2014Had a very nice pre performance dinner - great and efficient service, two things to improve - wine list does not offer a selection of more reasonably priced wines + restrooms need expansion and upgradingSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful!JakstarDined on 6/11/2014Fantastic restaurant, smart but very comfortable. The service is an absolute delight and the food is so amazing. We were look after so well on a busy night and nothing was too much trouble. If you want fine dining, professional waiters, lovely ambiance this is the place to come. Business or special occasions. It can be expensive but the wine list has a fantastic array of wines and with good price options. Loved it!!Special Features:

Would thoroughly recommend. In fact, I am returning at the end of the month, this time for a meal in The Grill.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Anniversary dinner.GchefDined on 31/10/2014We got the window table we requested. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The staff were very polite but maybe a little too attentive. It was difficult for us to have much uninterrupted time to ourselves.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dinner with viewsDinewell69Dined on 30/10/2014Skylon provides a wonderful setting for dinner with views across the Thames. The menu is varied and interesting, the service exemplary my guest saying she felt like royalty and the food is delicious My only criticism is access for the disabled is difficult to findSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great gluten free optionsLove2DineVIPDined on 29/10/2014We had a lovely dinner there and when I told them I was coeliac they immediately came and told me what I could have and brought freshly baked breadSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food, a little rushed serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 28/10/2014Great for pre-theatre. We had lovely food but felt rushed and we weren't actually going to the theatre. Friendly staff. View not as good as we thought it would be.Special Features:
- Value and qualityOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 26/10/2014We are members of the Southbank and have only just discovered Skylon. We ate there with friends for Sunday lunch it was great. A lovely environment, excellent service and really tasty food. We will book again in a couple of weeks with some other friends now we know how good it is!Special Features:
- 17impasseDined on 26/10/2014This is a restaurant for special occasions and it delivers on all fronts.It is friendly and efficient with outstanding service. We had a traditional Sunday lunch which I suppose does not stretch a professional kitchen but nevertheless it was faultless,and the price for central London was reasonable. A comprehensive wine list but as with all restaurants of this calibre,watch the prices!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Tasting menu disappointsAndrewDined on 25/10/2014Was not impressed with the tasting menu at all. The soup at the very beginning was the best bit and went downhill from then onto the rest of the courses. Wine pairings were nice though on the dearer side. Would probably go to other similarly priced restaurants nearby instead.Special Features:
- London Restaurant OfferDMagicODined on 25/10/2014Took Mrs O to Skylon to benefit from London Restaurant Offer (£25 / 2 courses incl glass of Laurent Perrier). Warm welcome and generally extremely good service, other than the wine menu being left with us throughout our entree. Both had starter of mackerel, which was superb. Mrs O's grey mullet in red wine sauce was well-presented and she said tasted excellent. My pork saddleback was tender, sauce was lovely. Slightly miserly on vegetables I have to say. Washed down main course with a glass of '11 Cotes du Rhone, which was solid, rich and a good accompaniment for both main courses.Special Features:
- Convenient and welcomingSamrezDined on 24/10/2014Good food, simple post theatre menu, OK wine list, attentive but slow serviceSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Disappointing.LalaDined on 24/10/2014Too loud - acoustic needs work Duck tasted like liver, Grouse had a simliar livery taste and texture. I did not want to spoil the occasion by complaining, but I expected better. Smoked haddock starter was watery and not particularly tasty. Peanut dessert was like something you'd get from Iceland (the supermarket not the country). Waiter unaware that you serve the most senior female first, not the youngest prettiest one!. Amuse bouche was very good though - a hot consomme served in an espresso cup. Also the fruit salad was good. All in all considering that I'd chosen this place to eat with my brother who lives in Boston and who I had not seen for a while - very disappointing, and I felt embarrassed.
- GrumpyDined on 24/10/2014Food quite good, but service not well geared to pre-performance timings.Special Features:
- Really good night!niceplaceseekerDined on 21/10/2014I had a dinner for two for a special occasion, and everything was perfect. We got a table beside the window, as requested, and the service was really good. Food and wine were at the same level, and the enviroment was even better.Special Features:
- Pleasant evening!DinerDined on 21/10/2014Thoroughly enjoyable evening with very good food, wine and excellent service. Well with a visit.Special Features:
- Birthday DinnerrollieDined on 20/10/2014I took guests from out of town here for a birthday celebration, and they absolutely loved it. The food was amazing, and the service was impeccable. I will definitely take more guests here in the futureSpecial Features:
- Elegant and stylishNinisDined on 18/10/2014We really enjoyed our evening at Skylon. The surroundings and interior were elegant and stylish with sophisticated lounge/house music in the background. The food, wine and cocktails were absolutely amazing! We would definitely come back to this restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Birthday supperEmsieHDined on 18/10/2014Went to skylon for the first time to celebrate joint birthday with a friend. Cannot fault the restaurant, everything was perfect. Will certainly return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Don't miss the pudsIssyDined on 18/10/2014On a pre-theatre dinner it's easy to miss out on the dessert course, but make time for them, they are worth it!Special Features:
- Brilliant all round!MimilondonDined on 18/10/2014The cocktails and food were amazing and the staff attentive - can't wait to go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- elc73Dined on 17/10/2014I thought I'd booked the pre-theatre menu so got a bit of a shock when sat down to realise the menu option was a set 2 course, fairly pricey option. Having said that the service was attentive, and the view was beautiful (window table as requested at time of booking). Just check that you click on the offer when making a booking if that's what you're hoping for!! My mistake but a costly one.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Highly recommended!JessDined on 17/10/2014I went Skylon with my best friends to celebrate her birthday and we got the table which has an outstanding Thames River view. The service and the quality of food is unquestionable. We had pre-theatre menu for pumpkin soup and grey mullet, there were so good. Cocktails are also recommended! Definitely going for another time!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Go for the views...InternationaljsDined on 17/10/2014We had tickets to a 730 show at the Old Vic, so arrived for dinner at 6pm. The Pre-Theatre menu is limited, but lovely and suited our "mature" group with style and familiarity. It was a light meal though, but the setting (for out of London visitors) was great. We had a lovely table by the window overlooking the Thames, and the service was pleasant and prompt. We paid just over £100 for a 2 course menu for three with wine - so not a regular table for us, but location wise we would definitely bring visitors back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Sha Stimuli - Put The Mic Down
Artist: Sha Stimuli
Producer: Black Metaphor
Album: The 9.2.5 EP
Avg Rating: 2.7 ( 6 votes )
It's sad, but true: not everyone is cut out to spit. And when lames whose hearts aren't in it persist in trying to rhyme in pursuit of cash or cachet, the results can be downright painful. An underground spitter with a developed hip-hop foundation, Sha Stimuli suffers especially acutely from wack bars; thus, on a newly-released standout off his latest EP, he invites the perpetrators to Put the Mic Down, for their own good and that of everyone around them. Though the artist does everything possible to puncture over-inflated egos as he flows over Black Metaphor's rock-sampled boardwork, Sha ends the record with a candid disclaimer: "On the real, if you dream you should chase it / No one can define how you view it when you make it / People tell me every day I should put this mic down somewhere, and I face it." Fans can find this insightful jam and much more on Left Lane Presents: The 9.2.5, available now for purchase via Bandcamp.

November 2014 Monthly Horoscope
The 10th is bringing us a very disruptive energy and this may play out via your children if you have any. Playground fights and manipulative tendencies are possible. If you dont have kids, you and a love interest may call it quits for good, or have an excellent amorous rendezvous. If a lover is being creepy controlling, dump them. That kind of thing only gets worse over time.
Those who are in a creative field will feel this energy via the impetus to start a new, perhaps very ambitious project.
I want to mention you have a very lovely energy building now and it will assist you in various ways for the next couple of months. The energy will wane a bit after the first of the year, but will still be protecting you, just more subtly. Then it will increase in strength again around next summer. People will find you charming and attractive and you may have opportunities to make money through a government contract or through someone with a great deal of influence.
If you like what is on this site, please give to a charity helping kids with cancer or one dedicated to eradicating cancer. Thank You.
2014 Yearly Horoscope
Your new solar chart has a few changes which hopefully will bring some good things your way. It is unfortunate that your ruler, Mercury, has left your solar first house. You had additional power in your communication, analytical and communication skills, so this may be one of the negatives of this years solar chart. However the moon has also vacated the 1st house, which I think is probably a plus. So we will call this a draw.
However, there is some truly wonderful news for your solar 1st house in that Venus, planet of love, money, charm, beauty and friends will just barely cross over your solar ascendant. Venus will give you protection from any malcontents who might be lurking in your world. You wont be unassailed, but their evil doings wont be able to hinder your positive reviews. I would advise that you find out who these malcontents are and lay bare their vices and foibles given theirs have to do with Neptune, planet of liars, con men, thieves and degenerates.
Venus will give you added attracting abilities and an element of protection to your health. If you work in a field involving beauty, decorating and even finance you will do quite well. You can charm your way into any board room and not just because you are a pretty face. Venus being in Virgo means you actually have analytical and intellectual skills as well.
Mercury moved out of your solar 1st house and into your house of money. You may be communicating about your finances more this year. If you need to make money, use your intellect and communication skills to rake in the big bucks. You might also be asked to do a little contract work.
The north node has landed in your solar 2nd house with Mercury, making it necessary that you spend some time focusing on your finances. You may not be comfortable in this realm, but it would be good to understand a little more about investing and such.
There are a few tribulations in your house of roommates, commutes, teachers, vehicles, mobility, extended family, neighbors and short trips. For every step you take forward you will take at least one back. The people you deal with are likely rather severe, mean or perhaps even beyond a Neanderthal level of obtuse. I wouldnt waste a lot of time dwelling on these things, it just isnt worth the trouble.
If you have creative talent you will be able to focus on this area of your life again this year. If you are a writer, detective novels would be a good bet. Whatever your talent is you may be a little intense about it. Since this house also rules entertainment and investments you may want to mellow out a little about the newest movie or video game coming out.
If you have kids you need to be aware they are probably going to be a little obsessive in some way. This is actually fairly normal for a kid to be involved in some whim or another, often to extremes. I guess it is all those raging hormones. For the most part if you just let them be it will pass with little more damage than holes in your walls where they pinned up their latest heartthrob. One area you might want to watch out for is your child being picked on, or picking on others. If you have several kids, make sure the older one is not bossing the younger one around too much.
Your 6th house has the planet of emotions within it. Virgos have the disturbing mantra associated with their sign that says they must serve or suffer. I dont like this, but so far I have not seen the lack of truth in it. The problem with this kind of service is that often you just cant see an end to the problems or you cant get the predicaments of your fellow earthly souls out of your head when you go to bed at night. From my perspective, which is one that is trained in service, the bottom line is that many people, not all, but most, are in the situation they are in because they have made choices in their life that led them there or did nothing to get them out of the terrible dilemma in which they were born. This isnt their fault necessarily, but more importantly, it isnt yours. Being emotionally moved about anothers plight is certainly a worthy and very human response to seeing the suffering of people. Finding a way to help these people is a wonderful aspiration. But dont let it take a negative toll on you. You cant help anyone if you lose your perspective.
You may work with someone this year who is very nurturing or who is emotionally unstable perhaps both. They certainly are not mutually exclusive. It goes without saying that you probably dont want to spend any more time with this person than necessary. Also, dont let people with a life sucking force get near you. You are still operating on a somewhat sensitive level this year and you cant afford to waste your energy on one of these vampires.
Make sure you keep hydrated this year if you are out in any kind of extreme temperatures or if you participate in sports. The moon rules the bodily fluids, as well as the breasts and stomach. You may find you have a few tummy ailments this year which can probably be traced to a liking for some type of foreign cuisine, too much stress or medications.
Neptune is still in its own sign of Pisces this year, which is one of the nicer items of note within the cosmic world. This planet is still in your house of business partnerships, best friends and marriage.
Those in committed relationships may find that they are aware of the others thoughts without speaking, which is a lovely occurrence when it happens. Others may find that they dont understand their partner the way they used to, and if you are of the older set, this might stem from your partner having a decline in their health. Almost everyone has a few memory problems as they get older, so while it is not what we want to have happen to someone we love, it certainly isnt unusual. Do what you can to mitigate the effects and put some measures in place to keep the problems it causes at a minimum. Making lists helps with day to day activities.
For those looking for a long term mate, you may be reacquainted with someone you knew only in passing several years ago. You will be attracted to those who seem somewhat mysterious. They might have big eyes the color of water or deep, dark and fathomless. This can be a true love match, so take the time to get to know them if you can.
Others will have problems with their mates which take up the very negative attributes of Neptune and are some of the worst for relationships as they encompass lying and using others. This probably will only happen for a small percentage of Virgos since few are able to fly under your flim-flam radar. Dont write off a somewhat odd and evasive sort too quickly as they may just be a deep thinker and bring you some of the most sublime happiness in your life.
Uranus, keeper of weirdoes and chaotic scenes is teaming up with the south node in your house of power this year. You still have a great deal of charisma because of this, but I wouldnt use it overmuch since the south node is prone to making gifts we overuse rather off putting.
Your taxes are a bit of an oddity this year and you need to pay special attention to whomever you have doing them for you. They may be brilliant, so dont breathe down their neck, but they also might be a little fast and loose with the deductions, and these can turn out badly for you.
Your career house is empty, but that doesnt mean there is nothing going on in it. In fact, you are blessed in having Mercury making sure you get rewarded for whatever you are doing career wise. If you are looking for work, communications and jobs requiring some sort of travel are good areas to look in to, as are the beauty and hospitality industries.
You have Lucky Jupiter hiding out in your house of secrets all year. This isnt the best place for him, but it certainly isnt the worst either because he functions here as a sort of guardian angel. This is because Jupiter is quite at home in this house, liking to do his good works in a more anonymous fashion from time to time. If you have problems and you cant quite figure out what is going on or who the culprit is, Jupiter is wonderful at being your champion and knocking a few imbeciles heads together who deign to mess with one of his peeps.
You can have very extravagant dreams this year, perhaps even cavorting with angels or talking to people you admire. Make sure you write your dream wanderings down upon waking because you can glean many insights from them.
I hope you will have an absolutely fabulous year, with fun and prosperity raining down on your world. Please remember to say a prayer for those who are less fortunate, especially the kids with cancer.
Horoscopes and reports are for entertainment purposes only.

Gain Peace of Mind - Use Hybrid Cloud to Modernize Your Storage Strategy - June 12, 2:10 - 2:45 pm
Marc Farley, Senior Product Marketing Manager at Microsoft
Data generation and storage is rapidly accelerating and is expected to grow 44x in the next few years .Strict regulations and compliance combined with the need to mine this data to gain competitive advantage make it mandatory for enterprises to store this data for longer periods of time. To deal with this data explosion, enterprises are switching to a hybrid cloud storage model - a trend that is predicted to accelerate so fast that by 2020 over a third of the world's data is stored and passes through the cloud. Microsoft's hybrid cloud storage solution enables enterprise customers to integrate Microsoft Azure Storage with their data center.
This session will take you through the importance of the StorSimple solution to the hybrid cloud offering and discuss the building blocks you can use to solve data growth problems and cost constraints, as you consider moving your data storage to the public cloud. The final portion provides a future vision for hybrid cloud storage (HCS) with StorSimple and Azure.

Mobile apps are becoming increasingly important in the enterprise. Traditional web apps cannot match the increased levels of engagement and retention achieved through a personalized and responsive experience on each user's favorite device. To build a cross-platform mobile app capable of delivering a truly personalized and responsive experience, however, you need to effectively utilize a cloud-connected app back end that is built to enhance security, scale and speed of development.
This session will cover the different aspects of robust mobile application strategy and the enabling technologies offered by Microsoft Azure. Miranda Luna will demonstrate how to use Microsoft Azure to implement mobile engagement strategy end to end, from net new apps to apps that need to leverage on-premises assets, to existing apps that could benefit from enhanced push notifications.

On the U.S. Army's website are pages devoted to outlining the acts of heroism and courage committed by generations of soldiers. Staff Sgt. Manuel Mendoza's listing concludes with an intimidating list of accolades accumulated during World War II and the Korean War, among them a Purple Heart and Italian Cross for Merit of War Unit Citation.
Missing from his many accolades was the highest award for valor a service member can receive. At least it was until Mendoza's family received the recognition, the Medal of Honor, during a ceremony at the White House on March 18.
Mendoza was one of 24 service members living and dead to receive the Medal of Honor bestowed upon him for actions taken during World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. His recognition stemmed from an engagement in Italy on Oct. 4, 1944 in which Mendoza single-handedly broke up a German counterattack. His actions garnered him the nickname the "Arizona Kid."
His feat should have earned him a Medal of Honor years ago. Instead he received the second-highest honor, the Distinguished Service Cross. According to the Associated Press, Mendoza and the 23 other recipients were overlooked not because of their actions, but because of their race or creed — in this case Hispanic, African American and Jewish.
According to the AP, soldiers recognized by President Barack Obama during the March 18 ceremony had their cases for the Medal of Honor reviewed and the medals bestowed as part of a congressional mandate.
"Today we have the chance to set the record straight," Obama said. "No nation is perfect, but here in America we confront our imperfections and face a sometimes painful past, including the truth that some of these soldiers fought and died for a country that did not always see them as equal."
Mendoza lived with his family in Mesa until his death in 2001 at the age of 79. His widow, Alice, took the trip to Washington to receive the Medal of Honor and was joined by family members, including daughter Sylvia Nandin, who described the experience as emotional for everyone involved.
As part of the ceremony, Nandin said the family received a couple of minutes with Obama, something she said the family didn't realize would occur until the day before the ceremony. She said Obama took care of her 90-year-old mother when they met and helped her overcome the wall of reporters and cameras in front of her during the ceremony.
"She came through it like a trooper," Nandin said.
She also concluded the visit with a few friends, as Nandin said her mother endeared herself to everyone and even received a few pecks on the cheek from the president.
But Nandin said the ceremony with the president, as well as an ensuing event the following night at the Pentagon, were cathartic for the Mendoza family and the rest of the awardees, including three veterans still living. Even given the circumstances behind the event, Nandin said no one in the room harbored anger; rather, she said the tone was more celebratory than anything.
"It was long overdue, but it was a positive experience," she said.
She still wishes her father was around to see the Medal of Honor he deserved. Then again, Nandin said he was an inherently humble man who rarely spoke about his service in either war. Once he completed his service, she said, he simply moved forward to civilian life as a manager at the Palo Verde Nuclear Power Plant.
Still, even without his presence, Nandin said receiving the medal has created many, many memories for them that will linger on for years to come.
"We feel like this is a journey our father took us all on," she said.

LEE COUNTY, Fla.- Authorities are taking their investigation into identifying and apprehending the men responsible for the recent Waffle House robberies to the next level, with the FBI offering an additional $4,000 in reward money for information leading to the arrests and convictions of these violent felons. The FBI's contribution is in addition to the $2,500 being offered by Waffle House, also for the arrests and convictions, and Crime Stoppers' $1,000 for the arrests.
"Detectives from two counties, as well as members of the FBI, have tapped into every available resource, and spent countless hours, trying to identify and arrest these men," said Trish Routte, Crime Stoppers Coordinator. "While we hope anyone in the know would come forward simply because it's the right thing to do, we are all collectively hopeful that money will talk, and the offering of up to $7,500 in cash will encourage someone who has kept silent with this critical information to finally come forward."
Anyone with information on the identities and whereabouts of these armed and dangerous assailants are asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-780-TIPS (8477). All callers will remain anonymous and will be eligible for a cash reward of up to $7,500 total. Tips may also be made online at www.swflcrimestoppers.org or by texting a tip to CRIMES (274637) Keyword: REWARD.

Addicting — I remember the smurfs when i was a little kid and this whole smurfs universe works great with the gameplay. The side quests and stories are amazing too. Only one problem, is when i go to collect the crops i always hit a smurf that says "hey go see the smurfs movie!" which is really annoying!

Awesome Low end Graphics Card...I had been looking to enable my 5 year old PC having 350W SMPS power supply with a decent GPU with an aim to convert it into a HTPC. PowerColor came in handy, given it's low power consumption compared with other branded ATI Radeon 5450s (adv: need not change my SMPS), passive cooling (silent performance), support for XP and surprisingly supports my other Linux OS - Ubuntu (display no issues, audio had problem and hence installed "proprietory" driver recommended by Ubuntu).

POWER COLOR AMD/ATI RADEON HD5450-NOT A GOOD BUYI had purchased this card in November 2012 with a view to enhance my old PC with a good budget graphics card, but, alas could'nt derive an iota of benefit and Flipkart 'No Return Policy' left me stuck with this card. Later, while I assembled Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 based system with AMD 4300 CPU, I found it does'nt work either with Windows Licensed Ver.8.1. I tried my best downloading AMD catalyst from Catalyst Control Centre for compatible version of the driver for Win.8.1 Graphics Card-driver. But, the Card remains dead even after installing this and does'nt even allow to load even the OS at … (Expand)

Average PerformanceIt increases performance of intel based motherboards that comes with on board shared graphics memory. You can play old games like san andreas at low setting without lagging but don't keep your hopes high. Even GTA San andreas laggs in high settings sometimes

The digital age has brought the hottest gaming technology right into our homes, so who needs an arcade these days? The truth is, some technology is still just too expensive for Joe Consumer. That's what gives the Escape an edge. The 132,000-square-foot fun zone boasts a megaplex cinema, four theme bars, a restaurant, billiards, and shuffleboard. Old standbys such as air hockey and pinball are in the lineup alongside racing and fighting video games. But virtual-reality rides set the place apart. Beneath the escalators sit the two Max Flight simulators, which for $5 a pop let riders buckle in and create their own virtual roller coaster ride, complete with 360-degree turns delivered with stomach-churning reality through the magic of hydraulics and computer simulation. Across the way in the Star Theater, roller coasters are also popular. Viewers strap into seats in a darkened room in front of a full-size movie screen and enjoy a haunted roller coaster ride in Superstition, with Elvira hosting while computer graphics whip your mind through hairpin turns and over precarious ledges and motorized seats make your body believe it. Similar scenarios play out in Kid Coasterand Smash Factory, and in Speedway viewers find themselves at the wheel of a racecar. The movies, $5 each, run throughout the day. Watching all of them can get expensive, so opt for the wristband -- $6 to $12, depending upon day and time -- which allows you unlimited rides and shows.

"US Gulf Braces for Rain From Tropical Depression"
"NEW ORLEANS -- A slow-moving tropical depression was slogging toward the U.S. Gulf coast Friday, packing walloping rains that could drench the region with up to 20 inches (50 centimeters). In Louisiana, Gov. Bobby Jindal said he was concerned about the serious threat of flash flooding in his state and he declared a state of emergency Thursday. After devastating Hurricane Katrina in 2005, nothing is being taken for granted."
