Hollywood players are losing another power eatery as Morton's will become the L.A. site for Soho House, London's industry-heavy private members club.
News comes on the heels of the recent shuttering of industry hotspots Trader Vic's, Delmonico's and Maple Drive and the temporary closure of CaBrea for remodeling.
Soho House Group founder and CEO Nick Jones confirmed the Morton's move.
Group is taking a 20-year lease on the property starting in 2008. The building will undergo a $5 million refurbishment reflecting the DNA of the original structure and neighborhood.
The venue will operate as a private members club with an opening slated for winter 2008.
Morton's, on the corner of Melrose and Robertson in West Hollywood, was often used for awards-season parties, like Lionsgate's "Crash" salute.
"It's a famous site in a fantastic location," said Jones, who has been looking for a permanent L.A. space for some time. "We really want to create something special for the people who live and work in L.A."
Soho House has been hosting satellite clubs during Academy Awards week for the last four years.
Brand already has clubs operating outside of its London flagship in Gotham, other parts of the U.K. and one in the works in Miami.

Home Care Assistance of Nebraska
We have been there, too. We understand.
After five years as the sole caregiver to my mother, an Alzheimer's sufferer, stress finally took its toll on my father. When he became extremely ill, I did what many out-of-town daughters do. I searched for a facility to move my parents to so they could receive care. From my home in Nebraska, I researched options for my parents, who live in Georgia. My father told me, in no uncertain terms, "No, I am not moving. Figure out another option." He clearly understood what I didn't – no assisted living facility or nursing home could provide him and my mother the level of independence, control, dignity and peace of mind they desired and deserved.
Through necessity and desperation, my family discovered home care and the inherent freedom and flexibility associated with remaining in your own home with one-on-one personal care. At about the same time, I realized a friend's passion for enriching elders' lives was as deep as mine.
These two events formed a turning point in my life. My friend and I formed a partnership and founded Home Care Assistance of Nebraska. We believe, when done correctly and with a focus on whole-person care, in-home care services dramatically enhance the lives of older adults and their families. My absolutely amazing partner, Amy Harris, and I are dedicated to ensuring our clients benefit from the lessons my father taught about independence, control, dignity and peace of mind throughout the aging process.

I thought I would write a post about a recent yet expensive procedure I have just had done.
My fertility consultant wanted me to have my Fallopian tubes clipped or removed as they are blocked (again) at the egg end not the uterus end.Ive had a lap in 2011 and had them cleared , I have endometriosis , fibroids and PCOS and blocked tubes .
After a course of injections to slow down and kill-off the endometriosis (which worked by the way according to scans !) it turned out my tubes are blocked.
I went to a private clinic in London to have Tubbal Cannulation, this is where they insight a catheter into you and put a dye in known as a HSG ( you normally have this dye test at your hospital to see if the dye spills out and your tubes are unblocked) with this dye in the doctor inserts a plastic tube hooks this into the start of the Fallopian tube then a metal wire soft rod goes insides that and is pushed into the plastic tube and travels all the way up inside your Fallopian tube pushing all the gunk that's blocking it.
All I can say is that it is extremely painful, the recovery time is 5 days, they give you a local an theistic , if you can take a nerve calmer before you go in ie diazepam I would recommend it I wish I had done that. Aftercare is ibruofem and paracetamol . And a course of two different antibiotics.
I was successful in clearing my left tube my right one didn't fully clear but doc says with the antibiotics , procedure and possible HSG may flush it out!
The cost spoof this was £2600 including the consultation! The doctor has now prescribed my clomid to start next month.
Am I mad to pay for this operation on all hope and faith it works, probably, put I may be pregnant in 3-6 months time and I'd rather not be cut open yet.
Anyway I hope this info helps. If you have blocked tubes the uterus end success rates are 80% if it's the egg end it's 30-50%

It's 2012, so why am I writing about a 1962 book that calls itself "the unmarried woman's guide to men"? Because I still think it's one of the greatest things around! When author, and famed Cosmopolitan magazine editor, Helen Gurley Brown died in August at the age of 90, my immediate reaction was to dig up my old copy of Sex and the Single Girl. I was never a huge fan of Cosmo, except during a brief period in my early 20s, but both the book and the magazine were important in that they reflected, and maybe even shaped, changing attitudes toward women and sex. … [Read more...]

In a National Child Protection Clearinghouse Issues Paper devoted exclusively to the topic of child abuse in organisations, Irenyi, Bromfield, Beyer and Higgins (2007) highlighted that there has been a litany of recent government and institutional inquiries into historic and contemporary institutional abuse which have exposed the impact of abuse of children and young people by employees or volunteers with a role to care or support them.
Research has also demonstrated that organisations can be vulnerable to the subversion by adults intent on harming children. Between 1988 - 1996, the Victorian Child Exploitation Squad found that 43% of sex offenders gained access to child victims through children's organisations (Petratis and O'Connor, 1999). A Queensland Crime Commission investigation in 2000 highlighted numerous deficiencies in the approaches of organisations to the protection of children and young people from abuse. For example, less than one third of sporting, scouting and youth organisations contacted undertook any screening of employees and volunteers. Half of the 66 non-government schools involved in the survey had no guidelines in place for dealing with allegations of abuse involving a school employee. Only three out of 51 community groups had formal policies for reporting allegations of child abuse involving employees or volunteers. More than half of these groups said they would not involve the police in an allegation of child sexual abuse (Project Axis, 2000). Recently, the NSW Ombudsman (2010) reported that in a sample of 101 sexual offence matters against school students by school employees between 2001-2009, 92% involved grooming prior to the sexual offence. In 31%, the grooming behaviour had been reported prior to the conduct escalating to a sexual offence. Of these, 39% of reports were not acted upon at all. Some action took place in 42% of matters, however, only 19% were deemed to have been appropriate action. In more than half of the reported matters, the response included ineffective warning of the perpetrator.

Clearwater beach
Me and the group went to Clearwater beach this past weekend on vacation and had a blast! WOW! What a party we did at least 3 shows a night sharing the spot with Dallas and a new Breakdance group we inspired when we were working the beach full time a couple of years ago. props to that group they actually took a couple of days off so we can make money for our hotels expenses, the beach is to small for 2 break dance groups especially when the shows are similar.
For a couple of days it was just our act on the beach and Dallas the fire guy and we made pretty good money, more then we exspected since all we wanted to make was beer and steak money.
I really recommend Clearwater beach if your a street performer that wants to go on a paid vacation, well not really paid but you know what I mean just do few shows a night on a beutiful beach during sunset with beautiful women in bikini's walking around and for the rest of the day do what ever, you don't have to wake up early sunset's in the evening PARTY BABY! PARTY!
If you go there's place called shepard's that's the location of 3 night clubs in one and the best buffet in the bay area.
Thursday nights $15.00 all you can drink Sunday night $1.00 drinks all night and wet T-shirt contest. There Is a dress code one of the guys in my group had to go back to the hotel 3 times to change because his Tshirt was to baggy they said it must be over his shirt zipper but you can come with house slippers with no socks shorts and a wrinkled collard shirt that covers your zipper, basicly a College preppy look is fine.

LONDON (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - More than half of schools in the northeast Nigerian state of Borno are closed with millions of children unable to start school this year due to the ongoing threat of Boko Haram, the United Nations children's' agency said on Friday.
UNICEF said almost 1,400 schools have been destroyed in Borno during the Islamist group's eight-year insurgency and 57 percent of schools are unable to open because of damage or being in areas that remain unsafe.
An estimated three million children are now in need of education, with many also victims of sexual assault, forced into marriage, and up to 100 used as human bombs so far this year.
Three years ago, the abduction of more than 200 schoolgirls by the jihadist group in Chibok in northeastern Nigeria sparked global outrage.
"In addition to devastating malnutrition, violence and an outbreak of cholera, the attacks on schools is in danger of creating a lost generation of children, threatening their and the country's future," UNICEF's Deputy Executive Director Justin Forsyth said in a statement.
Boko Haram, whose name in the Hausa language means "Western Education is Forbidden", is believed to have killed more than 2,200 teachers since 2009.
The insurgency has killed more than 15,000 people and forced some two million to flee their homes. It has also deprived millions of children of an education and torn apart communities.
Forsyth said nearly one million children have been forced from their homes by the crisis with 450,000 children under the age of five expected to suffer from severe malnutrition this year.
He said children living in camps for the displaced in Borno were actually attending school, many for the first time in their lives, with UNICEF and partners enrolling nearly 750,000 children in school this year.
But he said UNICEF was short of funds for emergency life-saving programs in northeast Nigeria for the rest of this year which includes building classrooms and providing school supplies.

Senior Farewell
June 19, 2017
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
Attending the graduation for the class of 2017 was bittersweet. When the students hooted and hollered as each classmate received their diploma, it was not without a slight sadness, as one by one the students ended one chapter of their lives and looked forward toward a new one.
Before presenting the valedictorians, Mr. Dean told a short story called "The Push." He told of how an eagle will never truly realize what a privilege it is, until it is pushed out of it's nest and given no choice but to fly. He talked of how seemingly cruel this may be to do to a group of helpless eagles, yet it is the one true act of love that is displayed by an eagle. In order for their children to soar, they must first learn to fall.
Michelle Baldini, one of the class valedictorians, delivered a speech on what it means to be a grizzly and how it's important to treasure the little things in life.
After a performance from the band, Luke Meader presented a moving speech of his own. He spoke about how his parents told him that being an adult is no fun, and is determined to change that precedent.
"You must make tomorrow brighter than today, even if it's by the light of a bonfire cutting through the night," Meader said. He concluded with the importance of caring for one another, and how we all must care for the person right in front of us; no matter if it is a family member or a stranger.
Right before the ceremony, Baylor Blair also delivered a speech. He recalled how it was difficult navigating high school early on only being known as "Mr. Blair's son". The expectations that fell on him because of that. He told the audience of how his flaws and strengths were all part of what made him him, and urged the crowd to focus on learning about and being themselves.
After all the students had received their diploma and exited the stage, the band's final performance was a score from Star Wars, perfectly fitting for the nostalgic and thrilling occasion.

The Legend of Zelda is one of Nintendo's popular games. Though when Skyward Sword came out, it recieved some negative opinions. Skyward Sword was the first game in the series to use motion controls. MatPat debated the subject with Reggie (Reggie is from Nintendo). Now, I'll take the debate here on debate.org.
1. BoP is shared. I have to show that motion controls are good. The Contender must show motion controls shouldn't be used in LoZ.
2. No kritiks, semantics, or trolling of any sort.
3. The forfeit glitch is present. DO NOT FORFEIT (run out of time)!
Motion controls: When the game acts upon your movements (such as in Skyward Sword, the sword is held and swung based on how you the player do it).
Should: being advantageous to the games.
[The definitions will stay these. Unless there's a better version of the definitions, but not a completely different definition]
I will argue that motion controls should be used in the Legend of Zelda. Who supports MatPat's side that motion controls should stay away from LoZ?
I will not post any arguments in this round, so that we both get the same number of arguments. I do not accept all defintions, was hoping more for this:
Motion controls: When the in game character's movements are controled by the player's movements, excluding pressing of buttons.
Reason To Prefer (RTP):
The preivious defintion would include the pressing of buttons, which would be unfair to Con.
Other than that, I accept the terms and conditions of the debate.
As a side note, can I begin rebutals at any time? Or is that strictly for round 3 and onwards?
I thank David_Debates for accepting. And I agree his definition of "motion controls" is better. With that, here's why LoZ should contain motion controls.
Point 1; More Immersive.
Would you rather just press a button, or "actually" swing the sword to fight? Pressing a button isn't too immersive. But having the player able to control how Link swings his sword allows you to feel more like you're actually fighting.
Take Skyward Sword, for example. A lot of enemies can only be defeated if you swing the sword a certain way, so you must be focused. This focus will immerse you into the world of Hyrule. Slashing away at your foes when they're vulernable. LoZ is about waiting for your chance to strike, slower paced than most RPG games. What better way to fight Ghirahim than swinging your sword accordingly? Just imagine doing vertical slashes, horzontal slices, and spin attacks to counter Ghirahim's knives.
And now try to imagine doing this in Twilight Princess.
Point 2; More available actions.
In games Twilight Princess and prior, Link only sings his sword according to pressing a button, doing a standard 4 hit combo. Not exactly the best method of deflecting knives. This is another advantage to motion controls. You swing the Wii Remote down, Link does the same. You choose how Link should swing his sword. Whether vertical, horizontal, diagonal, or a spin attack. This allows you to fight bosses that need a specific direction of swinging the sword to defeat. This would be practically impossible in Twilight Princess.
Point 3; Not as repetitive.
Imagine seeing a new game come out. You're doing the same thing in all of its sequels. It would get kind of boring after a while.
The same with the Legend of Zelda. Pressing a button gets old. So why not shake things up a bit, why not experiment? This was Nintendo's thinking when making Skyward Sword (at least the experimenting part). Adding motion controls changed the LoZ franchise. Was it a good change? Opinions vary. But it's always good to shake things up a bit.
The Contender can choose to make rebuttals if we wishes. But he must build a constructive case. With that, what do you say?
I think I'll save rebutals for R3, that way we have equal rounds to rebut each other's arguments. With that in mind, constructives.
1) Motion controls make combat laborious.
Motion controls are precise. Pro is right that you must be focused when fighting every enemy. But this is the very problem.
As I'd assume you know, each enemy in Skyward Sword (hereby refered to as SS) has a certain weak point. The weak point is different on every enemy, and, because of this, you must take on enimies one by one. You have to fight every Deku Baba with the same "focus" as a larger enemy which you should be spending more effort on. This turns combat from a fun, exiting element of the game into a chore. Many gamers (including me) got so annoyed by this that they avoided certain areas just so they wouldn't have to fight boring, repetitive, laborious "normal" enimies. In a game that centers around exploring, you should never hit the point where you say, "Nah, I don't want to explore there, there's 'normal' enimies." In short, motion controls make it a chore to fight enimies and expore.
2) Motion controls make combat the center, in a game about exporing.
I'm sure you might have heard of Egoraptor's opinions on this topic, and I stand by them completely. When you make combat the focus of a game, you nessesarily give up many other elements of the game, such as exploring. This is particularly bad when you realise that, at its core, LoZ is a game about exploring, not fighting. It's about secrets you can find, not about at what angle you have to swing your sword to kill a certain enemy. It never has, and it certainly shouldn't be.
3) Negative reception
This might be the simplest point: fans didn't like them. They thought they were boring, overly complicated, and not nessesary. One gamer even went as far as to say that he liked it better when he played it on an emulator with an Xbox controller, just so that he wouldn't have to use the "drama from the motion controls (1)." No matter how many hypothetical arguments Pro makes, he must face the fact that the fans did not like the motion controls. It would not be in Nintendo's or LoZ's best intrests to make a game that the fans don't want.
Pro, how do you respond?
Posting this at the last possible hour. Anyways, on to my rebuttals.
Laborious Battles:
"The weak point is different on every enemy, and, because of this, you must take on enimies one by one."
Uhh... don't we usually fight Zelda enemies 1 on 1 anyways? It doesn't matter whether it's Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, or Skyward Sword, when enemies are in groups, you have to be careful.
Although in SS, you could fight 2 Vertical Babas, and 1 Horizontal Baba at once, but all that really changes is how you swing the sword. They're still Deku Babas, and they're grouped together. But the difficulty adds thrill to the battles, especially if you're swinging the sword.
"This turns combat from a fun, exiting element of the game into a chore. Many gamers (including me) got so annoyed by this that they avoided certain areas just so they wouldn't have to fight boring, repetitive, laborious "normal" enimies."
I do concede the fights can be tedious, and some people don't bother fighting enemies. But it still can be fun for others (Then again, I haven't played Skyward Sword in years, so I don't know). I personally like the idea of swinging the sword in the right directions.
Combat in Exploration:
"When you make combat the focus of a game, you nessesarily give up many other elements of the game, such as exploring. This is particularly bad when you realise that, at its core, LoZ is a game about exploring, not fighting."
Skyward Sword does still have secrets here and there. But has Skyward Sword made its motion controlled fighting the bigger focus?
"not about at what angle you have to swing your sword to kill a certain enemy."
Like you said earlier, these fights aren't required. You can still explore, and you can also manually control the sword. But what has the bigger focus, exploring, the new battle system, or do they have almost equal? (I don't know...)
The fans didn't like it:
"They thought they were boring, overly complicated, and not nessesary."
Boring, I get. Overly complicated, not exactly. Not nessecary, sure, but better than pressing a button against Ghirahim.
"One gamer even went as far as to say that he liked it better when he played it on an emulator with an Xbox controller"
I wonder how he got through it. Also, I don't see your source.
"No matter how many hypothetical arguments Pro makes, he must face the fact that the fans did not like the motion controls. It would not be in Nintendo's or LoZ's best intrests to make a game that the fans don't want."
Skyward Sword's base is indeed the motion controls, yes. But Nintendo decided to put motion controls in a game. How often are you suggesting these new controls should be used had they made another LoZ game with motion controls? You have motion controls, let's not let them go to waste. Although the control scheme can seem to be over-used, the next Zelda game is able to tone it down with the motion puzzles.
I do concede that fans didn't like SS, but this doesn't mean Nintendo can't try again, and make another motion controlled LoZ game, with toned down puzzles and fewer strict enemies.
My opponent will do rebuttals Round 3, as well as defend his own case. With that, what to you say?
1) More Immersive
I would agree to Pro's contention...
Provided the motion controls are actualy working.
This was one of the major complants from gamers: the motion controls did not work. The sword would not go the way that it was swung, their actions were not translated to the Wii, in other words, they couldn't control thier character. And, in a game that is completely dependent upon motion controls (SS), when the motion controls don't work, the game is unplayable. You cannot defeat the enimies, you cannot complete the puzzles, you cannot play the game.
Analog sticks and buttons don't have this problem. They are responsive and they work reliably. They don't have the problems that I have mentioned. In my eyes, and in the eyes of many gamers, they are the superior choice (just look at the comments section on this site) (1+2).
2) More available actions.
Not nessesarily a good thing. When there are more avaliable actions, it makes combat way more complicated than it has to be. I would respond with my 1st and 2nd contentions from R2, that more avaliable actions make combat both laborious and shift away from the entire premise of LoZ.
3) Not as repetitive.
Quite the opposite. Motion controls make combat the same, boring chore. See contention 1.
Also, I'd argue that no matter what type of controls you use, they would become repetitive. It's just a different way of controling the character, after a while, it would become repetitive. The same enemies, the same strategies, the same controls. They don't change during the gameplay, do they, Pro?

America is supposed to be the land of opportunity. People here are born with the right to be wrong and they exercise that right regularly. The point is that we will find many people that we disagree with, and that should be handled carefully. Those on the left are especially animated about this point; they teach tolerance like it's all 10 of their commandments. Sadly they seem to have a hard time practicing it themselves.
It seemed that the whole world was up in arms when a bakery wouldn't bake a cake for an event that they disagreed with. The nation and the courts were all involved in pushing these Christians into doing something that they didn't want to do (and this is just one incident) and they were made out to be villains because they wouldn't support the actual even that was against their personal beliefs, with no mention of having a problem with the people themselves. Soap boxes were dusted off and tolerance was the word of the month.
But let the winner of a contest speak out making their opinions known about the protected Muslims and ask organizations to accept her, despite her personal opinions, and watch what hits the fan. This isn't a hypothetical, this is really happening in Puerto Rico where the winner of Miss Puerto Rico, Destiny Veliz is being dethroned after she spoke out in a way that the Miss Puerto Rico organization didn't agree with.
Via Daily News Cycle:
After engaging in a Twitter attack against Muslims, filmmaker Michael Moore was apparently offended.
This strong opinionated beauty queen took a stand for her conservative views to protect the President of the United States which triggered the "indefinite suspension:"
'All what Muslims have done is provided oil and terrorize this country and many others.'
She took a run at a sacred cow. So the PC Police slapped her down.
Was this 'protecting their brand' or was this unfair censorship?
Miss Puerto Rico — Destiny Velez — got in a Twitter war with Michael Moore. And it cost her her title.
Was that fair? Or too much?
Michael Moore, you may remember, shambled his fat ass over to Trump Tower to hold up a ridiculous sign as a publicity stunt.
Political stunt that it was, it earned him some political blowback. Photoshop was used — liberally — to make a counter-argument.
Just a few examples:
A clever one that put him in a march:
Point made.
Miss Puerto Rico took a different approach.
She answered his tweet. With actual words.
Here's what she said:
'There's NO comparison between Jews, Christians and Muslims. Jews nor Christians have terrorizing agendas in their sacred books.'
'All what Muslims have done is provided oil and terrorize this country & many others! All they do is build their mosques, feel offended by American values and terrorize innocent Americans and plant gas stations.'
'Most terrorist attacks have had a religion & a name associated with them & they have been from Islam religion.'
'Many pull out the card of Muslims serving in our military. Are they in the military cuz [because] they love our nation or to acquire benefits.'
'Why do ppl [people] want to separate Muslims from Isis when ISIS is a group of Muslim fanatics.'
'All they do is build their mosques, feel offended by American values and terrorize innocent Americans and plant gas stations and get guns and kills innocent ppl [people] and destroy precious artifacts.'
'Muslims use our constitution to terrorize USA & plant gas stations.'
'Islamic god is NOT the same God as Christians & Jews'
Could it be argued she overstated her case by overly generalizing? Possibly.
What was the reaction to this series of tweets?
(As though you haven't already guessed by now.)
'Miss Velez's actions were in contradiction to the organization, and therefore as a consequence of her actions, she has been suspended indefinitely. The Miss Puerto Rico Organization will not tolerate any actions or behavior contrary to the Miss Puerto Rico Organization.'
Sure the event itself happened a while ago, but seeing how everyone on the Left is lining up against Free Speech, it's good to remember JUST how far they're willing to take it.
This time it was HER title and job on the line. Whose job will it be next time?"
So much for tolerance I guess. It seems like if they have such a huge objection to the lack of acceptance she was showing, maybe you should show some yourself. I guess that wouldn't fit in with the punishing they like to do. I think the thing that the liberals hate about situations like this is two fold; firstly if you're beautiful you're not supposed to be a free thinker, and this chick seems to have both brains and beauty in equal measures.
Secondly, the makes an excellent point with her statement about this religion they're so ferociously protecting. If the Muslims who want to enter our country now wanted to keep to their preferred stipulations of covering up and avoiding pork, I seriously doubt that anyone would find fault in that. The Amish do it and we respect them for their calm and gentle ways. But that's not what Muslims want to do. They want to not only decide their own actions, but the actions of others as well, and much of their teaching is far from gentle. They're hailing from a religion that pushes a convert or die philosophy, and they refuse to refute that.
I'm sure we've all tried hard to think of any possible reason why the lefties would want to protect Muslims when their mission is so clearly in contradiction with everything that the liberals do (if you don't believe me, just look at how the Muslims treat women and Gay people). The only thing I can come up with is that maybe they really do know what a monster it is, and they're hoping that if they rat out their friends the monster will eat them last.

He's the act we've known for all these years. At last, Sir Paul McCartney's New Orleans concert is upon us.
The former Beatle performs Saturday at the Smoothie King Center, a sold-out stop on his two year-running "Out There" tour.
Originally scheduled for June 19, McCartney's Crescent City appearance is one of seven U.S. shows he postponed after he contracted a viral infection in May. The illness forced the star to cancel all five of his scheduled shows in Korea and Japan.
McCartney's U.S. tour resumed July 5 in Albany, New York. It continues through Oct. 28 in Louisville, Kentucky.
An international star even before the Beatles' landmark American television debut on "The Ed Sullivan Show" on Feb. 9, 1964, McCartney has been performing, writing and recording new material continuously for more than 50 years.
"If people ask why I bother, I say, 'Come along to one of my shows and just stand in the wings and look at the faces, look at the interplay between me and the fans,' " he states on his official website.
Saturday's show will be McCartney's second appearance at the Smoothie King Center. He played the venue, then called the New Orleans Arena, in 2002.
He also appeared in concert at the Superdome in April 1993. He returned to the Dome in 2002 for a performance at Super Bowl XXXVI.
Saturday's show arrives less than a month after the 50th anniversary of the Beatles' Sept. 16, 1964, concert at City Park Stadium, the Fab Four's only New Orleans appearance. Memories of that riotous visit remain vivid for New Orleanians and fans from the Gulf Coast region who attended.
Although McCartney's 2014 appearance in New Orleans probably won't inspire a melee of the kind that pitted police against Beatles fans in City Park in 1964, his recent American appearances have drawn excited audiences and enthusiastic reviews.
"And when he starts to sing 'Hey Jude'," Chicago Tribune reviewer Mark Caro wrote of McCartney's July 9 concert at United Center, "or the 'Once there was a way…' beginning to "Golden Slumbers, he's so unmistakably Paul that you may suddenly feel a giant lump in your throat. He is, after all, the living songwriter-performer who has done the most to shape popular music — and in many ways the culture surrounding it."
A review of the Sept. 28 "Out There" concert in The San Diego Union-Tribune reported: "The sustained roar of cheers and applause rising out of Petco Park Sunday night was loud enough to suggest the San Diego Padres had, improbably, just won their first World Series."
The "Out There" tour also stopped in San Francisco on Aug. 14, where McCartney performed the final concert at the soon-to-be-demolished Candlestick Park. For McCartney and many in the 50,000-strong crowd, the show must have had special resonance. The Beatles played their final concert at Candlestick Park in 1966.
"It's sad to see the old place closing down," McCartney said from stage, "but we're going to close it down in style."
As for the "Out There" set list, McCartney's Chicago concert featured 39 songs during a nearly three-hour concert. He opened with a Beatles hit, "Eight Days a Week," and ended with "Golden Slumbers," "Carry That Weight," "The End," the medley that ends the last album the Beatles recorded together, "Abbey Road."
Other Chicago selections included Beatles, Wings and solo material as well as four songs from McCartney's 2013 album, "New."
For "New," McCartney collaborated with producers young enough to be his kids: Paul Epworth (Adele), Mark Ronson (Amy Winehouse), Ethan Johns (son of Beatles engineer Glyn Johns) and Giles Martin (son of Beatles producer George Martin).
The "New" album blends classic McCartney-isms with fresh energy. Rolling Stone praised its "eternal youth" and "joyous rock and roll invention." A two-CD, one DVD collector's edition collector of the album, which debuted in the Top 10 in 17 countries, will be released Oct. 28.
"It all comes down to the fact that I love it, I love the whole process," McCartney said of making the album. "When I was a kid, I started getting into music and I got a guitar. Then when I got into a group I was fascinated by the whole thing, this idea of trying to make music and later trying to write songs. It's become an eternal fascination for me."

2010 Mazda 3 2.5L AEM Cold Air Intake Kit
The new 2010 Mazda 3 2.5L with manual transmission is proving to be quite a popular compact model. It provides great power, handling and fuel mileage. AEM sought a way to make this compact speedster even more powerful by developing a specially designed AEM Cold Air Intake System with either gunmetal gray or polished aluminum intake tube finishes. Product number 21-695C (Gunmetal Gray), and 21-695P (Polished).
"The development of a true cold air induction system for the 2010 Mazda 3 was approached by keeping the overall design and installation of the system simple while still enabling it to perform significantly better than the stock intake," says product design manager John Concialdi. He also explained that the intake itself is simple for the end user to install in part due to the development of a special throttle body coupler which allows use of the OEM PCV hard line. The intake itself was developed with 2.75″ diameter tubing that goes to a cone shaped air filter with an offset flange. This allows placement of the filter in a low isolated location behind the front fascia so it feeds cooler outside air to the engine. AEM's R&D group tested several different Venturi sizes until the right one was found to satisfy their demands for proper fuel trims and power output.
The 21-695C and 21-695P intakes performed strongly during testing showing a gain of 6.7 hp at 6100 rpm and 5.75 ft-lbs of torque at 6100 rpm. This kind of performance gain along with an easily cleaned non-oiled filter create a simple yet powerful upgrade for your new 2010 Mazda 3 2.5L with manual transmission. AEM has been pioneering well engineered Cold Air Induction systems since 1994 and the 21-695C and 21-695P are no exception to AEM's strive for great performance and precision engineering.

How to contribute
Stage coach to Brighton c1900
Fro the private collection of Tony Drury
Please note that this text is an extract from a reference work written in 1990. As a result, some of the content may not reflect recent research, changes and events. .
a) HISTORY: Since at least 1285 roads were the responsibility of manorial authorities, but the Highway Act of 1555 transferred their maintenance to the parishes which were directed to appoint a surveyor, and also required able-bodied householders to contribute either money or labour towards their annual upkeep. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries Parliament established 'turnpike trusts' to maintain certain main highways with monies collected from tolls; the main roads into Brighton from Newhaven, Lewes, Ditchling, Cuckfield, Henfield and Old Shoreham were all turnpiked, but most were wound up in 1889 when responsibility for highways passed to the county and county borough councils. Roads within the parish of Brighton became the responsibility of the town commissioners following the 1773 Brighton Town Act, and in 1854 the corporation took over. East Sussex County Council has been responsible since 1974, but Brighton Borough Council still acts on an agency basis as the highway authority. Trunk-roads are the responsibility of the Department of Transport; as a county borough Brighton had no trunk-roads, but some short lengths of the major roads have been trunked since 1974.

Study of issues related to the economic importance of international tourism in transition economies is of particular relevance. Currently, the States of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) are, first of all, before selecting the export specialization, secondly, before restructuring of the unprofitable traditional industries, focusing on new products for export, as well as to new activities in services and international trade.

Franchisors are constantly seeking new and better ways to grow their
franchise network, which can range from improving the franchise program to
generating more franchise leads. There is another approach that ought to be
Apart from an occasional cockeyed optimist, I haven't met many people in the
franchise industry that believe growing a franchise system is an easy task. This
is especially true for newly launched franchise companies. A typical approach is
to identify the best features of a particular franchise opportunity and proceed
to develop an effective way to present those features. The process involves
having attention grabbing headlines on the website and in franchise promotional
literature to generate leads. This step is usually followed by having savvy
franchise sales people or brokers deliver the message in greater detail.
Fundamentally, there is nothing wrong with this approach, in fact it's worked
for years and will continue to work. This technique represents the basics of
selling. However, there are ways to enhance the sale of new franchises by
participating in the sales process from the position of a prospective
It's easy for a franchisor to slip into a position where they construct and
deliver a franchise presentation from their perspective. In some cases, this
could mean dismissing legitimate objections from a franchise candidate by
attributing the objections to the candidate rather than deficiencies the
franchise program.
In order to gain a different view of the franchise and how it can be
perceived by a franchise candidate, I would suggest the following:
A franchisor can improve their program and enhance the sale of new franchises
by putting themselves in the position of a prospective franchisee. It's one way
to obtain an unbiased evaluation of their franchise opportunity and lower the
risk of franchisee failures.

San Diego, Calif. - In a bid to give small business owners access to the kind of real-time information that Fortune 500 executives rely on to run their businesses, Oracle Small Business Suite has launched a new edition focusing on an "executive dashboard."
The dashboard is actually a Web page highlighting all of a company's real-time business information, such as sales, cash levels, receivables and payables, inventory levels, leads and support cases. The dashboard can be customized for each business, and the information can be viewed in a graphical or chart format.
"An issue for small business owners is that it's painful to get at the information they need to run their businesses," company spokesman Jim LaBelle said "Executive Dashboard makes it simple and easy."
The company is also launching a new value-added reseller program to fulfill a marketplace need to have consultants help implement and train companies on how to use the software.
LaBelle said he expected to have 100 VARs trained and certified by the end of 2002, with about one-third of those coming from the ranks of accounting professionals. Certified VARs will get a 30 percent discount on the software.
"Some of our customers are very tech-savvy and don't need help with implementation and customization, but there are others who are looking for local solutions providers to handle this kind of work at their location," LaBelle said.
"We see the new VAR program as a complementary way to meet a need that customers are asking for," LaBelle added.

Joe Philbin isn't headed to New York after all.
A day after multiple outlets, most notably ESPN, reported that Philbin would join old friend Ben McAdoo's new staff with the Giants, the ex-Dolphins coach took a job with the Indianapolis Colts.
The Colts named Philbin their offensive line coach Friday, the same position he held briefly with the Packers a decade ago.
Philbin teams up with Colts coach Chuck Pagano, who signed a four-year contract extension earlier this month after a tumultuous 2015 season.
How Philbin went from being reportedly hired as an assistant head coach in New York to a position coach in Indianapolis in the course of 36 hours remains unclear.
Philbin went 24-28 as the Dolphins' head coach in parts of four seasons, and was fired after a 1-3 start in 2015.
His No. 1 job is to get his players to protect the quarterback — something he could never do in Miami. Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill has been sacked a league-high 184 times since entering the league in 2012.
Tannehill's counterpart in Indianapolis, Andrew Luck, missed last season's final seven games after suffering a lacerated kidney.
