BEREA, Ohio – Josh Gordon might have been in uniform for the Cleveland Browns as training camp began Saturday morning, but it was hardly what Mike Pettine predicted would be "business as usual" for the team's No. 1 receiver.
Instead of lining up with the first-team offense, Gordon spent most of Saturday's two-hour practice with the backups. And not just the veteran backups: Gordon was often running with the third-team offense alongside unheralded rookies.
Though Gordon and the Browns won't find out for at least two weeks if he'll be allowed to play, the message out of the first practice of the preseason was that the Browns are already preparing to be without him.
Gordon is facing a lengthy ban for repeated violations of the NFL's drug policy, and he has an appeal hearing scheduled for Aug. 1, after which he'll learn if he will miss the entire season, or if he might be allowed to return at some point in 2014. If he loses the appeal, Gordon would have to apply for reinstatement after year.
Gordon's off-field troubles are not new, and they don't seem to be over. He served a two-game suspension last year, and he was arrested three weeks ago on a charge of driving while intoxicated in North Carolina.
Still, cutting ties completely with Gordon has never been an option, team owner Jimmy Haslam said Saturday. Haslam, citing league confidentiality rules, declined to comment specifically about Gordon's pending punishment.
"I'll say this. First and foremost, we care about our players and we want our players to take care of themselves and make good decisions, and we're going to do everything we can to support them," Haslam said. "At the same time, players have to be accountable to themselves and their teammates, to the front office and to our fans. People have to understand that, and I'll leave it at that."
With Gordon's drop on depth chart, veteran free agent additions Miles Austin, Andrew Hawkins, Nate Burleson and Anthony Armstrong spent plenty of time practicing with the first-team offense. Austin, the long-time Dallas Cowboy, was held out of all team drills in the spring after signing in May, so Saturday marked his first true action as a member of the Browns.
"Miles was the one who especially jumped out today," Pettine said.

Police are advising women not to place their purses in their shopping carts after two women had their wallets stolen while shopping at Oak Creek grocery stores last week.
According to the Oak Creek police reports:
A man stole a wallet out of an 80-year-old woman's purse while she was shopping at Pick 'n Save, 6462 S. 27th St., about 3 p.m. Jan. 26. The woman told police the man took the wallet out of her open purse after he helped her load a six-pack of water and some Solo cups into her shopping cart.
The man is described as a 6-foot-tall man with light brown skin; short, dark hair and a grayish goatee; and wearing a dark tan jacket. The wallet, worth about $9, contained a driver's license, medical cards, a credit and debit card, a $25 gift certificate and other membership cards.
Police checked with store security but the incident was not captured on video surveillance.
A short while later a woman reported her wallet had been stolen at Woodman's, 8131 S. Howell Ave., between 1:30 and 3 p.m. The wallet, which contained $25, four credit cards, two debit cards, one check card, a driver's license and medical cards, was taken from a shopping cart.
While calling to cancel one of her credit cards at 4:30 p.m. that day, the bank informed the victim that her card was being used at Lowe's in Franklin. An officer followed up with Lowe's, who stated that no one was working in security at that time. Police are following up with store security.
Oak Creek Community Resource Officer Kim Bogadi added that women should consider leaving their purse at home when they shop.
'Before you go shopping, think about the only things you will need - like your debit card, a credit card or some cash,' Bogadi said, 'then take only those things with you and leave your purse at home.'

Dustin Boyd's Falling Stock
Kent Wilson
February 23 2010 12:26PM
With the addition of so many new bodies, the competition for roster spots in the Flames forward rotation is a fierce one these days. A player either has to be clearly superior to his competition or at least a body with a defined role. And when Calgary's regular season went on hold recently, it looked like Dustin Boyd was neither.
I've always been a fan of Boyd. I like his skill set, his work ethic and his past accomplishments at other levels. That said, when he was announced as a healthy scratch in Calgary's final game before the break - passed over in favor of guys like Jamal Mayers, Eric Nystrom and raw rookie Mikael Backlund - it was a strong indication to me that his time with the organization may be coming to a close. In 192 career NHL games, Dustin has done little more than spin his wheels with this club. He's garnered 28 goals and 29 assists in a mostly and 4th line role that seems to stick to him like a scarlet letter. Part of that has been the team's emphasis to "win now", which has meant a promotion of veterans to key positions up front in lieu of risking wins to develop the kid.
On the other hand, Boyd has never made a consistent case to be promoted. While there are certainly flashes of brilliance now and then; where his soft hands and offensive awareness stand out for a shift or game, his underlying stats have been consistently below grade for almost the entriety of his career. This season, for example, Boyd has the 4th worst corsi/60 rate (-0.87) and the 5th worst relative corsi rate (-5.7/60), despite being relatively sheltered at ES, both in terms of level of competition and shift starting position.
The difference between Boyd and more established NHLers has been further pronounced since the miid-season rebuild. While the team has improved in terms of out-shooting and possession since that point overall, Boyd is one of only two Flames to remain under water in terms of corsi ratio (Eric Nystrom is the other). It's a small sample size, to be certain, but not out of line with Boyd's struggles to effectively move the puck forward, both this year and last. It's tough to promote a guy in this kind of crowded environment, no matter his "potential", when he lags behind his peers.
With the apparent willingness of the organization to promote rookie Mikael Backlund and play him in Boyd's stead, it's probable that the latter is now a trade bait, both at the deadline and, failing that, in the off-season. The team doesn't have much room or use for him currently and his plateauing progression gives the decision makers little reason to grant him a place on the roster, particularly over (ostensibly?) superior options. Doubtless, there is a certain amount of risk associated with moving a player of Boyd's age and raw talent after poring a bunch of time and money in developing him - he is, after all, right near that point in a player's career arc where they "take the next step" and become a functional NHL player. However, there's a very real possibility that Boyd's stock has fallen in this organization to degree that he's essentially a serf in a rigid caste system and will therefore never experience the kind support and upward mobility that would likely be required to further his development. As a result, he's probably far more valuable to a hypothetical "seller" at the trade deadliine than he is to the Flames currently.
I honestly hope I'm misreading the tea leaves here and Boyd will bound back into the Flames picture and become the kind of NHL forward many of us have hoped for in Calgary. Unfortunately, that seems like a long shot right now.
February 23 2010, 02:55PM
You gotta keep him
UFA: Mayers McGrattan Stajan Nystrom Higgins Conroy (Seriously, you dont think Boyd could replace Conroys 12 points?) Bourque
If you can get him for under or around what Dawes makes, you gotta keep him. I think he gives the team leverage when it comes to signing players like Nystrom (We will give you X and if you dont take it we have Boyd).
Domebeers likes the kid, but if he were to be traded, like the Lombardi trade, it would leave more chicks for the rest of us.
Furthermore, I think Peter Loubardias should be fired.
I feel Nigel Dawes is the superior forward. I find Boyd is often being tipped over, pushed around, and has no strength on the puck. His game relies on his skills, and he only brings those out every 10 games. Unless he can PROVE he can play consistently, it's a tough bet to see him back on the Flames squad. I'd much rather see a healthy Bourque soak up some of that salary.

"I absolutely love these shoes! I anticipated the high heel but they were even higher in person which only made me happier. They do take a bit of time to get used to walking in though but it's nothing a little practice can't help. Also, Dolce Vita is a great brand so I knew I would not be disappointed. I would definitely recommend this shoe but if you have bad ankles I would double think purchasing because the shoe does put your foot at a very high angle."

ETSU parking garage delayed again
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - Students at East Tennessee State University will have to wait longer for a new parking garage.
ETSU's vice president tells us the opening day for the garage will now be next semester. This is not the first time the project $23 million project has been pushed back from its original early fall 2013 completion date.
University Vice President David Collins says this summer's wet weather delayed the construction. "Since then there have been some reported delays in some steel shipments, some of the brick, and some other things. But we are concerned that it does continue to slip, so right now we are being told around the start of mid-January 2014, so it seems like every time it comes up it's slipping a little bit," said David Collins.
Collins plans to meet with the project contractors and designers.
We reached out to both Retenbach Constructors and Barber McMurry Architects who are working on the garage, and they have not returned our calls.

Home to Steinhart Aquarium, Kimball Natural History Museum, Morrison Planetarium, and world-class research and education programs, the California Academy of Sciences is one of San Francisco's must-see destinations. From its four-story living rainforest to its interactive space shows, the Academy's exhibits will delight visitors of all ages.
We went to the Bay Area for a wedding last year and had a couple of days to explore. One of the day's we headed over to the California Academy of Sciences. We LOVE a science museum and this really sounded like it was going to fit the bill. It did not disappoint. Our only disappointment was that we ran out of time and didn't get to see everything!
We loved checking out the earthquake exhibit, and the Aquarium. The colorful tanks with fish from all over the world looked healthy and happy. We were able to have a look at fish from the Philippines, which was fun because we had a trip planned there. The touch tank was great and students were doing experiments with an octopus, so we watched that for a bit. She was studying social habits of the octopus, which was really interested.
One thing we loved was going up to the upper floors and we had a look at drawing skulls and learned about various species.
The next time we are down, we will definitely head back here to explore more. We really loved this and would recommend it highly!
My family and I went to The California Academy of Sciences on our recent trip to San Francisco. It was amazing!!! There was so much to do there: Aquarium, rainforest, planetarium, earthquake exhibit, living roof, toddler area, etc. We are not from a large city and the crowds here were overwhelming! We had to wait before viewing each exhibit which can be terribly frustrating with five small children. I found that with the ammount that the museum has to offer topped off with the long lines there was no way to accomplish this in one day.
The cafeteria food looked good but we packed a lunch and ate it on the floor in the center sun room. Saved a lot of money and probably a lot of time. It was worth going but I am not sure I will go again as the crowds were just too much for us. (We didn't encounter crowds like this in the rest of the city.)
What a museum! CAS was not on my original list of places to go while we were in California, but as the Exploratorium was closed, I decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad we went! My daughter loved the rainforest, the aquarium, the living roof, the earthquake exhibit and all the rest! She found the exhibits all to be engaging and informative. Plus, the cafeteria has wonderful, healthy choices! I understand it can be crowded, but we lucked out and only had a few short lines to wait in while we were there. Bonus : we got a discount for taking MUNI (the bus).
The Academy of Sciences is really great. If your child is under age 4 the individual membership is a great deal because it's good for you, another adult and kids under 4 are free! Plus, once you have a membership you don't need to worry about seeing every exhibit each time you go- which is a good thing because:
Weekends are a nightmare. It gets crowded fast and you have to wait in line to get into the rainforest. Plus, some days you'll go and the rainforest is closed for cleaning. I'm sure they close it as infrequently as possible, but if you don't know ahead of time it can be pretty disappointing.
They have a really nice toddler play area near the kiddie gift shop, but there is usually a line to get in. This is good because it limits the number of people inside, but the wait can be quite long. There is always plenty of room for kids to run around outside.
The docents are very friendly and patient with the kids, especially down in the aquarium tide pool space- however kids under age 5 are not allowed to touch any of the animals the docents are showing off upstairs. It's pretty hard to explain to your 3 year old why everyone else gets to pet the snake and he doesn't.
The Cafe is excellent. The food is very good, but it does get busy. Definitely worth checking out, they have a large variety of food and snacks.
Parking is by the hour in the garage unless you want to park on the street and walk in. A good option for warmer days, but the ease of parking near the museum usually wins for me.
The California Academy of Sciences is the perfect museum for all ages.
The California Academy of Sciences newest exhibits "Earthquake" and "Rainforests of the World" are an absolute wonder to explore. One of the best parts of the "Earthquake" exhibit are the baby ostriches adjacent to the line in. The pride of fuzzy little birds scratching around in their glass case is adorable and hilarious.
The aquarium and rainforest exhibits are dizzying and colorful sensory overload. There are plenty of spiders, reptiles, and sharks to keep the more timid travelers covering their eyes. The sheer number butterflies floating around at the top of the rainforest are spectacular! Shutterbugs will need to be quick, but their reflexes will be paid off with some picture-perfect scenery.
Another real joy of visiting the California Academy of Science was the top-notch quality of the café. The café has a huge number of culinary choices that span the globe. Although it's more on the pricier side of lunchtime dining, a family of four can spend around $50 and please even the pickiest or more adventurous diners.
This museum is a WOW! It is so beautiful and so well executed from start to finish. There are so many things to do here that a plan is a must or buy a membership and explore at your leisure over several visits.
I brought my 3 year old daughter and my 5 & 6 year old niece and nephew. They where all very much entertained for hours. Unfortuanetly because of their age we did not get through the whole museum, we bought a membership and will be returning soon.
Steinhart Aquarium: This is one of the best aquariums I have ever been to. The amount of species under one roof is spectacular. We spent most of our time here because the kids just didn't want to go. The habitats that have been built for the fish and reptiles are done with such respect. They are beautiful and spacious. We spent quite some time watching each tank.
Morrison Planetarium;
We where unable to explore the planetarium. This is where you will find the largest all-digital dome in the world with a 75-foot diameter projection screen tilted at a 30 degree angle. Thanks to immersive video technology, the dome seems to disappear when imagery is projected onto it, creating an experience more like flying than watching a movie. The movie EARTHQUAKE: EVIDENCE OF A RESTLESS PLANET is showing.
Rainforests of the World;
This is a 4 story living, breathing, rainforest. With spectacular plant species and animals. Inside are croaking frogs, chirping birds, chameleons from Madagascar, ,free-flying birds and butterflies.Take the glass elevator into the Amazonian flooded forest, where an acrylic tunnel allows you to walk beneath the catfish and arapaima that swim overhead. Absolutely AMAZING!
Kimball Natural History Museum;
There are some magnificent taxidermied animals in this exhibit. This allows you to be inches from them to see just how large or small these animals are. There is also some wonderful opportunities for you to learn about things most of us just don't think of.
We had such an amazing afternoon. We arrived after 2 and the museum closes at 5...that is just to short of a time period to enjoy the whole experience. Consider buying a memebership if you have small children and live close by. Because even with extra time my kids got tired and where ready to go after 2.5 hours. Plan ahead and arrive early because this is all under one roof for one price and you wont want to miss a inch of this place.
The California Academy of Sciences is really a natural history museum, aquarium, and planetarium all in one. No hidden fees once inside, every exhibit is included!!
My kids (age 7.6.2), loved the aquarium's touch tank (even though we've been to about 100!!), the baby ostriches, and numerous other live animals. The natural history portion was a bit over their heads, and too much reading for their level. Unfortunately, we went on one of the few (advertised) days of the year when the rainforest exhibit was closed, so we missed out on that.
I liked the living roof, the ease of manuevering through the exhibits, and the earthquake exhibit. Okay, actually it really scared me remembering these quakes and being in the simulator, but I love that the interactive nature showed my kids how to respond and will hopefully help them feel more at ease when the next quake hits.
Admission is a bit pricey, but tickets are included in the CityPASS, which ends up being a great bargain.
Explore the rest of Golden Gate Park while you are there!!
A perfect stop if you have kids, though be forewarned that the crowds can be off-putting. (We have dropped our membership for this reason). But if you can stand it, the aquariums, albino alligator, live penguin exhibit, and butterfly jungle are bound to be hits (and YOU will like the living roof!). The cafeteria will floor you for cafeteria fare: wide choice, healthful concoctions and kid-friendly… plus, you can sit outside!
California Academy of Sciences is nothing short of "astonishing-amazing-oh my goodness-magnificent -I can't wait to visit again-tacular!!"
Now through January 16 2012, the Academy celebrates 'Tis the Season for Science', the science behind some of our most familiar holiday sights, sounds, and traditions.
During our visit, my son enjoyed an up close and personal experience with a pair of live reindeer in the museum's East Garden!! Did you know lichens and mosses are the reindeers favorite food? One species of lichen is so commonly eaten by Santa's sleigh-pullers that it's called "reindeer lichen."
Outside in the East Garden my son enjoyed the freedom to run around and burn off some energy before we headed to the hot and humid four story rainforest. The rainforest environment is ideal for frogs, not so ideal for kids dressed in winter clothes.
In the rainforest, the sounds of exotic animals transports you to the tropics. We saw parrots, bats, and butterflies as we climbed into the canopy of the living rainforest. My son actually thought he was walking through a jungle and clung to my leg!
The soothing sights of swimming fish at Steinhart Aquarium impressed my son and he happily sat in his stroller while I ogled over the Philippine Coral Reef, one of the deepest exhibits of live corals in the world! At the Northern California Coast Gallery there's a Discovery Tide pool where children and adults can touch and examine a wide variety of ocean creatures.
February 2012 Addendum!
My son and I are huge fans of San Francisco's California Academy of Sciences. If you've never been, it's the only place on the planet with an aquarium, a four-story rainforest, a planetarium, and a natural history museum all under one roof. An amazing experience for every member of the family.
When I first heard about the opening of Animal Attraction, a new exhibit at the California Academy of Sciences, I instantly cleared my calendar to go! From sex change to cannibalism, The Academy presents some of our world's wild mating strategies in an 18-tank aquarium gallery devoted to the science of courtship and reproduction in the animal kingdom. Meet hermaphroditic banana slugs, cannibalistic praying mantises, and parasitic anglerfish.
The exhibit uses iPads as exhibit labels, allowing visitors to flip through gorgeous images, watch videos of reproductive behaviors in action, and guide their own digital explorations using interactive touch screens throughout the exhibit.
Some parents might see the word "mating", and wonder if the exhibit is appropriate for young eyes. The exhibit features the animals themselves and is meant for audiences of all ages and focuses on the mating strategies of the animal kingdom in a scientific format geared toward educating museum visitors. Animal attraction is age appropriate for children of all ages so fear not!!
California Academy of Sciences provided my family with complimentary tickets for this review. California Academy of Sciences did not request that I express any particular point of view and my reviews always reflect my honest opinions.
We always go visit the butterflies and birds, and then go down into the acquarium to see the fish. My kids are always excited and enthralled and this museum truly captures their budding imaginations. The only downsides are that it is a little expensive to visit especially if you have small kids and only want to be there for a couple of hours, and also that children under 5 can't go into the planetarium - I understand why, but for me, that' a shame.
Without going over all of the highlights and drawbacks that other trekaroo members have mentioned, here are a few tips to help make your Cal Academy time the best it can be:
Entrance Fee: Most local venues offer free entrance to children *under* 3yo. CalAcademy is free for kids "3 and under" making this the best spot for that 3rd year (plus there are plenty of activities for this age group). There are free days, but it's packed so we avoid them. Some discounts can be found so don't think you have to pay full price.
Membership: If you're a SAHM with a 2-3yo, get yourself a individual membership and take your toddler here as often as you can. Bring your partner on the weekend or meet another parent/toddler and get them in for free as well. The individual membership includes entrance for one other adult (or an older child). This year, I got my membership during a February special for 20% off. However, they do not participate in any reciprocal programs.
Lines: No doubt about it, the rainforest and planetarium will have lines on weekends and weekdays during the tourist season. The thing is there is so much else to do, why limit yourself to these parts.
Toddlers: Do NOT miss the Kids Cove, the excellent indoor playground designed for the under 5yo set with a padded area for pre-walkers, a ship with galley and bunk, and a multilevel tree, with lots of books, puzzles and the cutest LEGO set I've ever seen. Expect to take your shoes off and yes, it does get full sometimes, but 75% of the time we go, we get in within minutes. They even have crayons and tables covered in paper for coloring to keep the kids occupied while you wait. If your child is older than 3yo or so, and it's too busy, go upstairs instead and play puzzles, read books on bean bags or play video games at the Naturalist Center, one of the quietest places in the museum (membership includes borrowing privileges). Or go next door to the most kid-friendly gift shop and play with the displays (but consider buying the book, Pierre the Penguin, it's great!)
Cafe: Yes, it can get pricey fast, though you get a fair amount of food that is crazy better than most museum cafeterias (compare it to the Smithsonian Natural History Museum, I dare you). After you've chosen some dim sum or slow-roasted ribs or a large bowl of mac&cheese, take your tray out to the covered porch (with heating lamps) then let your kids eat their fill and run around the garden, climb on the seal statues and play hide and seek behind the trees, confident that they're not going anywhere cause it's completely fenced in. What is particularly amazing about this cafe though is that whenever I've been there by myself with my wriggly son on hip, a staff member magically arrived at my side to help me by carrying my tray to any remaining stations, then the cashier then table of my choice, stopping by the condiment bar to get napkins, hoisin sauce and silverware. Brilliant and worth tipping.
Our favorite activities: Waving at Claude, the albino alligator. Watching the penguin feeding (or just watching them frolic) . Ogling at the replica of Lucy's bones, the whale skeleton, or the T. Rex skeleton at the entrance. Watching the rays and sharks swimming beneath us through the floor windows. Picking out different kinds of fish in the aquarium tunnel.
It's a whole different experience for older kids and adults, but my 3yo never ever gets tired of this place.
We've been members of the Academy now for 3 years and this membership is probably the useful and utilized membership that we've ever had. My children are 3, 5, and 7 and there's always been something interesting and wonderful for all of them starting from when my youngest was still an infant. There's an infant/toddler room that many folks don't even notice but it's a good place to be able to take off your shoes (mandatory, so bring socks if you're not wearing any that day), and let your kids crawl/walk/explore with puzzles, role-playing, read -- there's a treehouse, a miniature boat, and a bathroom adjacent for diaper-changing. For the older kids there's the rainforest and the living roof. The African animal exhibit and the aquarium (with hands-on tide pools) are winners with all ages and plenty of seating and room so that even the most crowded days don't feel too claustrophobic. Okay, then there's also the food, which is reasonably-priced, extremely diverse, and much better than most attraction cafeterias that we've been to (e.g., Scharffenberger chocolate pudding! Vietnamese pho! And wine/beer...plus the good standbys like mac-n-cheese, quesadillas). Finally, there are also 2 outdoor areas where you can usually find a table (heat lamps also are there for the cooler days) and your kids can run around the grassy lawn without you having to corral them, quiet them down, etc. This is definitely one of my favorite go-to spots to take the kiddos whether it's rain or shine.
Ok, it's better than what it was in its old location, but its still not that great. I never was a fan of the Academy of Sciences. Come on, we're San Francisco. We should have a building devoted to each of the three areas covered (Aquarium, Observatory, Museum), but instead we have all three crammed into one? I'm a big fan of all three separate museums in Chicago and found the small quarters and lack of information at the Academy of Sciences pretty sad and pathetic. My kids liked the Rainforest and the way you were walking above the fish underneath. It was fine if you didn't know any better. The food in the cafeteria was expensive and to me, the whole thing was not worth it.
The new California Academy of Sciences is wonderful from living top to bottom! I went with some friends on a weekend shortly after it opened and it was very crowded! Even still, we enjoyed ourselves. Some highlights are the aquarium and the I-Max type movie on outer space. I would recommend going during the week if you can and get there early to spend the whole day. There is food available there but it is over priced and I recommend bringing a lunch to eat on the grass outside. We didn't get to see the rain forest exhibit (it was far to crowded) but it looked super cool from the outside :0)
We spent an entire day here with my 7 year old stepson. The rainforest was awesome and we easily spent an hour in that. I would suggest getting tickets for shows early since they were gone by the time we got there. Also the line for lunch was insane and it was tough to keep track of everyone in our group and find seating. The museum is interesting and there is a lot to look at so plan on spending an entire day there.
Ticket prices are steep ($25) and combined with parking prices, I only visit once in awhile. i would recommend going to Nightlife (if you are going without Children) because the tickets are for $12 instead of $25. Although you cannot go to the Rainforest Section or watch the Planetarium show, its a great glimpse of what the museum has to offer and you get to see the whole place in a different light.
I went to the academy of siences a couple years back with my now 12 year old daughters class. It was a good expirience and both me and my daughter enjoyed going, she especially liked it, partly because she was with her class, but she genuinly enjoyed it, and so did I.
If you want to be amazed by architecture and overwhelmed by science exploration, this place is perfect. It also has a tot spot for little ones called the tiny explorers cove. It is really expensive but I have a secret way of sneaking in with members:) Just ask! sometimes they will let you:) It is also a start to a wonderful day in the park as well.
My whole family loves this place. My 2 year-old could easily spend the whole day there. There is just so much to see and everything is so well thought through.
My daughter loves the observatory with butterflies and the penguin feeding exhibit. I personally love the amazon exhibit. There is also a nice cafe in the building, so you can go grab a HEALTHY lunch (they have soups, sandwiches, salads, etc).
i have visited this place twice, my daughter likes this place. There are differnet kinds of fish and animals.
unique experience at amazon rain forest dome, aquariums, lively African animals and at the roof of the building.
admission is free on third Wednesday of every month
expect long lines on free days.

Perez adjusting to McLaren life
Sergio Perez was given a flavour of the enormity of the task that faces him with McLaren when he addressed the entire workforce for the first time.
- Related Content
On a visit to the McLaren Technology Centre for his maiden round of media engagements as a driver for the Woking-based team, the 22-year-old later spoke to all 550 members of staff.
It was a daunting experience for the young Mexican, who has considerable shoes to fill given he replaces Lewis Hamilton, but he passed with flying colours and was given a standing ovation.
Although not Perez's first visit to the MTC since it was announced he would take over from Hamilton at the end of September - he has been for a seat fitting and simulator work - he concedes he has yet to come to terms with the fact he is driving for McLaren.
"It is going to take some getting used to," said Perez.
"It's certainly not hit me yet, to realise I am driving for the best team in the world, that you are part of the best team. It might take me some time.
"But I'm obviously very excited to start my new job with McLaren. It is incredible to finally wear the kit, to be with the team.
"Today I met the entire race team, so it has been a very special day. It made me feel very proud to speak to them, proud to be part of such a great family, such a close family.
"Everybody loves working for this team and for me it's very special to be part of it.
"Looking at them, the scale of the team is unbelievable. To realise all those people are working for you, for the same target, to give you the very best opportunity to win because everybody at the factory is hungry for winning.
"This is something you feel as soon as you walk into the factory.
"But I am really motivated. I am so much looking forward and this is a great opportunity for myself to show what I can do in a top team."
Perez has confirmed he will continue to reside in Switzerland rather than move to England to be closer to the team.
However, he appreciates given the increase in commitments that comes with being a McLaren driver, he will have to cut back on trips to his homeland.
"I won't move to the UK at the moment, I will stay in Switzerland as I like it there, but I will be here often with the team, close to the team," added Perez.
"Of course my main responsibility, my main goal is to win races, to be 100 per cent fit for every single race.
"So it's extremely important to reduce the travelling as much as possible, to be focused on the team, to give my very best to the team. That is the target.
"Other than that, you need a very good balance in your personal life to be able to give everything, so whenever I do have some to myself I will choose whether to go back (to Mexico) or I stay at home.
"My priority right now is to give my maximum for the rest of the year."
Although on the podium three times last season with Sauber, Perez ended it in ignominious fashion with a run of six successive races without a point, remarkably since confirmation he would be driving for McLaren.
With just over two months' work ahead of him before he lines up on the grid for the season-opening race in Melbourne on March 17, Perez insists such a barren spell counts for nothing as he targets the world title.
"The past is the past and obviously I've learned quite a lot from that. I take the positives, and now I've a new challenge ahead of me," said Perez.
"We have to deliver, to win. The target is not simply to score points or podiums, but to win, to win the championship because when you come to McLaren you have the opportunity to do that."

As the co-founder of Choclatique and as a lover of everything chocolate I am always looking for new "flavor thrills" that are made with chocolate—anything chocolate… everything chocolate. That could be the sweet use of chocolate for great muffins, brownies and confections or something savory like an exotic Mexican chicken mole, chocolate-covered short ribs or my fantastic chocolate-kissed barbecue sauce.
My good friend Richard Altuna, our retail designer, who has added so much to the success of Choclatique, has called me fearless in the face of chocolate so I decided that it might be a good idea to bring a little Thanksgiving cheer to the chocolate lovers of America who are looking for more than just another ordinary turkey to show their thanks for this week's holiday feast.
Two of my favorite things in the world are a standing rib roast (I used to work for Lawry's The Prime Rib in Los Angeles—the home of great prime rib) and cacao. Okay, I know that doesn't sound particularly strange, but try bringing them together. Now that was a challenge that I took up earlier in the year for another publication.
You have to always remember that chocolate, or more to the point, cacao beans, can be used in many different forms. For instance, at this very moment, Chef Wayne and I are in the middle of a 3-week test using whole cacao beans marinating in 100 proof vodka to see if we can develop a great tasting chocolate-flavored neutral spirits beverage. Chocolatier Karen and I have worked on the development of coffee and tea-related solid dark chocolates as a way to provide unique high-impact chocolate flavors, extra-high in antioxidants. This would be a more functional use of chocolate similar to our Q-91.
But, I digress… what does all this have to do with a Thanksgiving Day feast? Fear not, the Chocolate Ambassador to the rescue. Take a look at the prime rib marinade and recipe attached (using Choclatique Cocoa Nibs) and discover for yourself that chocolate should be used for more than just sweet confections and desserts.
Happy Thanksgiving and many thanks to all of our friends and associates who have helped make Choclatique the popular, award-winning company that we are today.
Happy Holidays… don't forget to order your chocolate early for everyone on your list! www.Choclatique.com
Two of my favorite things in the world are a standing rib roast and a piece of chocolate. Okay, I know that doesn't sound particularly strange, but try bringing them together. Fear not, take a look at the marinade recipe below and discover for yourself that chocolate should be used for more than just confections and desserts.
Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Hold Time: 10-12 hours or Overnight
Cook Time: 2-1/2 Hours
Rest Time: 30 Minutes
Yield: Serves 6
Marinade Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Choclatique Cacao Nibs
- 3 teaspoons Dried Red Pepper Flakes
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Whole-Grain Mustard
- 1 teaspoon Molasses (unsulfured)
- 1/2 teaspoon Chipotle Chili Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Ground Allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon Coarse Ground Black Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Choclatique Natura Cocoa Powder (unsweetened)
- 3 tablespoons Golden Brown Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Kosher Salt
- 1 each Standing Rib Roast (3 bone or boneless prime rib)
- Make the dry marinade by combining all of the spices in the bowl of a food processor and process until the cacao nibs break into small particles (about the size of coarse salt).
- Generously cover the meat with the dry marinade and tightly wrap in plastic food film. Marinate the prime rib overnight in the refrigerator.
- Remove the prime rib from the refrigerator about 2 hours before you start cooking to temper it to room temperature.
- Pre-heat the oven to 325-350ºF.
- Place the prime rib fat side up in roasting pan fitted with a roasting rack.
- For medium to rare cook until the internal meat temperature reaches about 125ºF (roughly 18-20 minutes a pound). But why gamble, check the temperature with an instant-read thermometer.
- Allow the prime rib to sit, loosely covered under a foil tent, for 20-30 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to calm down.
Note: Use the leftovers to make Beef Enchiladas Mole or a steaming pot of your favorite Chili.

Walsh Jennings puts return on hold to prep for World Series Cup
LONG BEACH – Tuesday was supposed to be the day a beach volleyball icon returned to action on American sand. In the 3,500-seat stadium by the ocean, Kerri Walsh Jennings had expected to play in front of a home crowd for the first time as a three-time Olympic gold medalist.
But because of an abdominal strain sustained in the recent Grand Slam in Gstaad, Switzerland, that plan was put on hold – at least for a few days. While forced to withdraw from the Grand Slam portion of this week's ASICS World Series of Beach Volleyball, Walsh Jennings is using the next three days to train for this weekend's World Series Cup.
As players from around the world competed in the start of pool play Tuesday morning, Walsh Jennings was already smiling with excitement over the new Ryder Cup-type event that starts Saturday.
"It was really hard for me to pull out (of the Grand Slam). But I have too much respect for myself as an athlete and for the game to come out and just play to play," she said. "I want to play to win, and I wasn't in that position. I had to do a gut check.
"I'm a tough girl and I have an ego, and I want to go out there and prove to myself that I can do it. But bigger-picture, we have the (Association of Volleyball Professionals season) coming in August. We have seven tournaments I want to win. I have this tournament this weekend that I want to win. So you've got to think of the big picture sometimes."
The ultimate big picture, of course, is the 2016 Olympics. Certainly, each Olympic experience is different. But for Walsh Jennings, the road to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, will feature a new companion in Costa Mesa native April Ross. Misty May-Treanor, who teamed with Walsh Jennings to make arguably the best beach volleyball team of all time, retired after the duo won their third Olympic gold medal last August.
While excited about her new partnership, Walsh Jennings conceded that not seeing May-Treanor on the court next to her in Gstaad made her emotional. Part of it might have been the locale – the duo had won six grand slams in the Swiss Alps – but while walking around the town between matches, Walsh Jennings cried. It was in no way a reflection on her new partner, she made sure to point out, but simply the special bond she had with her old one.
"I think I'll miss her for the rest of my career," Walsh Jennings said of May-Treanor. "I think that's how special we were, and that's how much I love her."
Walsh Jennings' upcoming participation in the World Series Cup comes on the heels of some of the busiest months of her life. Since giving birth to her third child, Scout Margery, on April 6, she estimated she has taken 11 flights, many for AVP and sponsor appearances, including four to the East Coast. She also posed nude in ESPN The Magazine's recent Body Issue, first while pregnant and then with her newborn in her arms.
"It was something that was just a beautiful opportunity and I wanted to jump on it," she said. "People's response to it has been really heartwarming."
Added her husband, pro volleyball player Casey Jennings: "They did a classy job with it. It's pretty cool. It's something we'll have forever. ... It's Scout's debut, too. Scout needs to walk the red carpet and do interviews. We love it."
Then, from July 9-14, Walsh Jennings made her debut with Ross in a trip that provided a glimpse of the future. Though they had merely a pair of one-hour practices to prepare, both players were encouraged by their performance. They won their first three matches in pool play before losing in the round of 16 when Walsh Jennings struggled through her abdominal injury.
Though they played together in Switzerland, the partnership is not yet full-time. Including this week, Ross will play about seven more matches with longtime partner Jennifer Kessy of San Juan Capistrano. Kessy, who turns 36 next week and got married in March, is not retiring but said this was a good time for her to cut back on travel and spend more time with her family.
"It's been an amazing ride and we've had so much fun," said Ross, a former star at Newport Harbor High and USC. "It will be fun playing with Kerri, but it's just going to be a different partnership, and I don't know what it's going to hold yet. I'm just enjoying what is left of this team that I'm on now."
While Ross and Kessy finish out their partnership, Walsh Jennings will play this weekend with Laguna Beach's Whitney Pavlik. Fans are certainly eager to see one of the sport's all-time greats. She, too, is eager to get back on the court and take part in a new competition.
"Hopefully, it's just going to reignite a spark for the sport, and I want to be a part of that," Walsh Jennings said of the event. "I'm working really hard to get ready to win it on Saturday and Sunday."

How-To Geek
How to Turn Your Home Ubuntu PC Into a LAMP Web Server
Got a Linux PC you want to put to work? Maybe you're not comfortable with the command-line only version of Ubuntu Server Edition. Here's how to keep the standard Ubuntu desktop and add web-serving capabilities to it.
Whether you're not comfortable with a command-line only system, you're using your Ubuntu desktop for other things, or you just need it installed for a few particular apps, you can add Apache, MySQL, and PHP to any standard desktop installation of Ubuntu very quickly and easily.
The Simple Command
Let's start installation with the use of a very clever command:
sudo apt-get install lamp-server^
It will NOT work without the caret at the end. Once you've got that entered, you'll see that it auto-selects all of the necessary packages and will ask you to confirm the "large" amount of data to be downloaded.
Just sit back and let it do its thing until you get a blue screen pop up.
Enter a password for the MySQL root account, which is what you'll need to create other users and manage databases, then hit Enter to continue. You'll be prompted to re-enter your password, so do that and hit Enter again.
That's it for installation!
Testing Apache and PHP
Let's test Apache to see if it's serving properly. Open up a browser and direct it the following URL:
You should see something like this appear if everything installed correctly:
Next up, we'll test to see if PHP is working. In terminal, enter the following command to create a new document:
sudo nano /var/www/testing.php
Then, copy the following code:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
Right-click in your terminal and hit paste.
Hit CTRL+O to "write-out" or save the file, and then hit CTRL+X to quit.
Next, restart Apache with the following command:
sudo service apache2 restart
And load up the following page in your web browser:
And you should see something like this:
Checking MySQL Bind Address
MySQL has a bind address that should match your system's. To check your system's bind address, we can use a quick command:
cat /etc/hosts | grep localhost
That's a "pipe" or a "stem" in the middle, which is shared with the \ key. You'll get a couple of results, one of which will show you an IP address.
You can see from the screenshot above that my bind address is 127.0.0.1.
Next, let's open up the MySQL config file to see what's listed there.
sudo nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf
Scroll down until you see a line beginning with "bind-address" like below.
As you can see, the bind-address is the same, so we're good. If yours is different, just change it so it matches what you found above.
Installing phpMyAdmin
If you're not familiar with MySQL and its commands, then you may have some trouble managing databases and tables. phpMyAdmin helps you tackle that by providing a PHP interface for MySQL administration. It's easy to install and can really come in handy, so let's get to it.
sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin
If this command doesn't work, you may need to enable additional repositories.
You'll get another blue screen come up asking you to choose which web server to configure. Make sure the red block is next to "apache2" and be SURE to hit the Space bar. This will mark it with an asterisk, and then you can hit Enter.
You'll be asked if phpmyadmin should configure a default database for its own use. Choose Yes.
Next, you'll be asked to enter the password of the admin account used to create this database and user. Since we haven't created any other MySQL users, enter your MySQL root password.
Lastly, you'll create a password to use with phpmyadmin, and you'll have to confirm it again.
Once you're done, restart Apache.
You can log in to phpMyAdmin by going to the following URL:
Use "root" as the username and then enter the root MySQL password.
There's more than a few important passwords here, and you'll be tempted to use the same password as your root account. If you choose to do this, be sure that it's a very secure password, something with mixed character classes and a good length. Remember, you are giving others access to your computer by installing this software, so take proper precautions.
If this is your first time playing with a web server, you may be wondering where the files you want to host go. They're in /var/www/ be default, and will need elevated privileges to access that directory. One idea is to mount a separate partition to that point to be used solely for serving web stuff. Check out our other article, What is the Linux fstab and How Does It Work?, to get some more information for that.
And, now that you have your own web server, why not learn How To Archive, Search, and View Your Tweet Statistics with ThinkUp?

Spelling mishap in the last part " you may be wondering where the files you want to host go. They're in /var/www/ be default," Probably should say "by default" :D
It's so funny that this gets posted on How-to-geek today. I had to setup my Ubuntu 10.10 laptop this way earlier in the week so I could test some new PHP pages. In addition I wanted to work on integration of WordPress into an existing web site so installing XAMPP for Linux (LAMPP) was my solution. It works great and does not impact the overall performance of my Core 2 Duo 1.8Ghz Dell Latitude D630 laptop. If you are a web developer and you need to work on the go, then I highly recommend setting this up!
when I've tried to install it, I have to solve a little problem, the folder www, didn't gave me the rights to write files or read them, then with chmod and chonw i sort the rigths of my user out, but each time that i copy a folder from win to ubuntu i have to do the same again.
Is any way to avoid it? Thanks
yes you can solve this problem by :
1- go to terminal and write " sudo nautilus " with out quotation mark ,than type you password
2- go to "/var " path .
3- right click in www folder , select properties.
4- go to permission tab.
5- change the owner to your username , and folder access to "create and delete files" also change file access to "read and write" .
screen shut : http://i.imgur.com/Habyj.png
6- click ok and finish :)
@cgbolton1: All HTG users are monitored, thus its no wonder they know what you want to do.
Bit of a newbie to servers here. I've got some small html files hosted in the /var/www folder to test this out (everything went ok with the install). How do you access this from other computers? just point a browser to the IP address of the linux box? Will this work with a virtual ubuntu OS in virtualbox?
Hi, Im having trouble with the "sudo apt-get install lamp-server^" command… I get the response of;
E: Unable to locate package lamp-server^
E: Couldn't find task 'lamp-server'
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'lamp-server^'
Any ideas?
Try the same command, but leave off the caret. The caret is only required on older versions.
sudo apt-get install lamp-server
If that doesn't work make sure you have tasksel installed by using this command.
sudo apt-get install tasksel
Then issue this command to install the LAMP Server.
sudo tasksel install lamp-server
Nice article Yatri. Very Informative. Now, how about an article on getting your website to work from your home server when a vistor goes to "my_domain_name.com" from their browser. I know the steps involved but have never been able to get this to work successfully.
Great. Next: WAMP server?
it's possible to choose which version of php i'll install? i need an earlier version of php… thanks
I second what RedTalon said. How bout an article on getting it to work. So you can create a web page and someone else can view it from say… across town, or the state.
I can´t open phpmyadmin
but Ihave creating a config file
This I could read in the terminal
Creating config file /etc/phpmyadmin/config-db.php with new version
granting access to database phpmyadmin for phpmyadmin@localhost: success.
verifying access for phpmyadmin@localhost: success.
I couldn`t open phpmyadmin
creating database phpmyadmin: success.
verifying database phpmyadmin exists: success.
populating database via sql… done.
dbconfig-common: flushing administrative password
Handle release for libc-bin …
ldconfig deferred processing now taking place
As you can see everything was success
After that I restart apache and I got this answers:
sudo service apache2 restart
* Restarting web server apache2 apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName
… waiting apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName
I have ubuntu classic in 11.04
I hope you can help me
i have a problem. i did step by step in tutorial.but i can't found http://localhost/phpmyadmin .
It works! Thank you for this site
how do i acsses this from another computer
Great post! Thanks a million.
@RuBiVn and @Tommy Bengtsson
You may need to add a line at the end your /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file. See below:
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
The info on this can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/phpMyAdmin
Thank u for ur info ,
My problem is that alll the installation is complete but when i put http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ it says 404 not found please help me … :)
Thanx!!! Keep up the great work!!!

Sassy red wedges.
"Wedge is a very comfortable height. Fabric is on the shiny side. I wish the band of fabric came higher on the foot so that the shoe would "flop" less when you walk. The color is more "tomato red"than "red red". This will look causal with the cork heel or dressy with the shiny fabric. Cannot wait for warmer weather to wear this."

"Just got these. They are darling. I wear a 6.5 ordered a 6.5 and they fit perfect. The heel is great, tall enough to look modern but not too tall to look dumb. (I am 55, so don't want to look like a teenager) I have not worn them yet, but they seem like they would be comfy. Very excited for spring so I can put them on."

It's time for our Friday roundup of pop-culture delicacies! (I have a doctor's appointment, so I'm posting it a little early today.) Peruse my list, then feel free to contribute your own here or with a #WeekInPop hashtag.
These go to 11:
1. The Americans. I'm still into this FX series about Russian spies, which has already been renewed for a second season. Catch up with a five-episode marathon tonight, starting at 10 p.m. ET.
2. Inocente. You must watch this Oscar-winning short documentary about a homeless teen artist. It's truly inspiring (and now on iTunes).
3. How to Survive a Plague. Speaking of phenomenal docs, this one about history-making AIDS activists is hard to forget. It arrived on DVD this week and is worth a rental.
4. Sacrilege, Yeah Yeah Yeahs. I'm loving this new song from the band, off their upcoming album, Mosquito (out April 16).
5. You Owe Me a Feeling. Silver Jews' David Berman collaborated with artist Friedrich Kunath for this awesome book of photos and poetry. (Kunath's oversized shoes are my favorite!)
6. Jessica Williams. The young Daily Show correspondent just keeps getting better, which means it's only a matter of time before she moves on to bigger things.
7. The Initiates by Etienne Davodeau. Subtitled A Comic Artist and A Wine Artisan Exchange Jobs, the new graphic novel from NBM is an enjoyable and educational read.
8. The online Warhol auction. Man, I really want that Coca-Cola photo!
9. The Sleeper Omnibus. Ed Brubaker fans will lose their minds over this gigantic hardcover devoted to the thrilling comics series. (Vertigo, $75, out March 5.)
10. Portlandia. The IFC series ends another excellent season tonight. Again, may I present Fred and Carrie's hilarious "Tent Video":
11. David Bowie. The man is (still) on fire. Stream his new album on iTunes through March 12.
And that's all she wrote! Stay healthy this weekend, and I'll see y'all Monday.

After stopping at the Genetic Denim showroom last week for their press preview, the Denim Therapy girls decided to put one style of skinny jean to the test: The Shya in Dark Tin. These stretch-denim jeans hold an almost black hue, and it was unanimously voted that they're super flattering for fall, not to mention comfortable. But how do they hold up on three different women with three different body types? Read on to find out!
What was your first thought when you tried them on?
Francine: Feel like I am wearing sweat pants… How does my butt look?
Renee: They are unbelievably soft, yet still thick enough to bypass jegging territory. They fit beautifully. We post about celebs wearing Genetic Denim a lot, and I've never looked at the pictures and thought that they were jeggings.
Michelle Christina: Smooth like butter! Only took a second to pull them on.
Where/when would you wear these?
Francine: Perfect for my everyday: school run, office, playground and go out for a casual dinner with friends.
Renee: These are perfect for my hectic work day, and are dark enough to transition easily into night-time.
Michelle Christina: Comfortable enough to wear at the computer while I'm working. Can definitely see myself wearing these to family holiday gatherings with oversized sweaters and lots of jewelry.
How's the fit?
Francine: Low rise, skinny (not too tight).
Renee: They're tight without being restrictive or uncomfortable, and the fit is really flattering. I like my jeans to sit a little bit higher on my waist (above the hip bones so that I don't ever have to pull them up), but that's my personal preference. They definitely have the ability to make me feel sexy while still being comfortable–Genetic Denim, I hope you know what an impressive feat that is!
Michelle Christina: Super skinny, plenty of stretch, don't feel like they're restraining me. Room for movement.

• We care for infants born at 30 weeks gestation and beyond.
• Because parental participation is so important, the NICU at Fairview Ridges Hospital makes it possible for families to be with their babies 24 hours a day.
• The NICU is staffed around the clock by specially trained neonatal nurse practitioners. They work in partnership with internationally respected, board-certified University of Minnesota Physicians neonatologists.
Your baby will receive complete, comprehensive care
The NICU team also includes respiratory therapists, pediatric radiologists, licensed social workers, speech and physical therapists, and lactation consultants who use their advanced training and the latest technology to care for your baby. You and your baby receive comprehensive care from a multidisciplinary team.
The NICU at Fairview Ridges Hospital is a Level III NICU. If more specialized care is needed, your baby will be transported to the Level IV NICU at University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital in Minneapolis, which provides the most advanced neonatal care available.
