High school boys basketball: West G edges Perry
It may not have been a triple overtime game like the first time Perry and West Geauga played, but it was pretty close.
For the second time this season, the Wolverines came out on top of a 45-44 Chagrin Valley Conference, Chagrin Valley District victory.
They had to wait until the end of the game to finally take the lead, but it made the win even sweeter.
"My heart stopped in the end," West Geauga coach John Cardiero said.
With 40 seconds remaining and the score tied at 44, the Wolverines had possession. Point guard Noah Bidar dribbled away the seconds at the top of the key in anticipation of the final shot. But instead of taking a final shot, he was fouled with 14.6 remaining. He made the first of two which proved to be the game-winning point for the Wolverines.
The Pirates took a shot at the victory with a 3-pointer by Ryan Zalatel, but it missed the mark. West Geauga's Mario Formichelli grabbed the defensive rebound with 2.3 left. Formichelli missed the free throw and the Pirates missed a desperation 3 by Cale Burdyshaw at the buzzer.
"I was proud of the effort and proud of the execution, the shot just didn't drop," Perry coach Alan Iacofano said. "But we had chances and that's all you can ask for."
With the win, the Wolverines improved to 14-7 (8-3). The Pirates slipped to 10-10 (4-7). The teams could meet again in the Division II sectional final at Lakeside High School. The No. 2 seeded Wolverines have a bye in the first round. They play the winner of No. 7 seed Perry and No. 8 seed Collinwood on March 1.
"Any time we play Perry it's a battle," Cardiero said. "They fight hard and so do we."
The Pirates did most of the battling at the start of the game when they went on a quick 9-2 lead. They outscored the Wolverines, 13-10, in the first quarter. Continued...
The Wolverines picked up their intensity in the second quarter and outscored the Pirates, 13-11, despite shooting 3 of 8 from the field. Midway through the quarter, the Pirates' scoring leader Cale Burdyshaw picked up his third foul. With Burdyshaw on the bench, the remaining Pirates kept pace and at halftime the score was tied at 24. Burdyshaw returned in the third quarter and both teams totaled 11 points apiece.
"He's our man and everyone inside and outside of the conference knows that," Iacofano said. "He's our leader out there. But I don't think we lost any ground when he came out. The other guys did a good job of believing in each other, stepping up and composing themselves. That's a sign of growth for our team."
Burdyshaw, who averages 16 points per game, finished with 16 points. Ian Illig totaled 11. Zalatel contributed nine.
Bidar and Formichelli had 15 apiece to lead the Wolverines.
"It was surreal in the end," Formichelli said. "It felt like we were still down because we didn't get the lead until the end. But it was a good win. We pulled it out in the end and that's all that matters."

A 3-year-old boy is dead and his family remains hospitalized with injuries suffered in a crash involving a drug suspect being chased by a San Antonio Police officer in Southwest Bexar County.
Police Sgt. Javier Salazar told 550 KTSA News the suspect's SUV was loaded with hundreds of pounds of marijuana when it left a ranch on Morin Road Wednesday afternoon.
Undercover officers had the place under surveillance. Salazar says they watched as vehicles would pull up, load up and drive away, each carrying several hundreds of pounds of pot.
"As they were leaving, marked vehicles were stopping those suspects and arresting them," said Salazar.
One of the officers was chasing a suspect on the acccess road of IH 35 near Shepherd Road when he suddenly turned around.
"The suspect actually made a U-turn and came at the officer head-on," said Salazar.
The officer was able to avoid a collision, but the suspect couldn't.
"Before the officer could turn back around to pursue him, the suspect collided with another vehicle," he said.
That vehicle was carrying two adults and four children, who were taken to University Hospital. A three-year-old boy died shortly after arrival. .
The suspect also was transported to a hospital for treatment of minor injuries. He's facing federal charges.

OLYMPIA, Wash. — Same-sex couples in Washington state began reciting wedding vows early Sunday morning, just minutes into the first day they could marry after the state's gay marriage law took effect.
Hundreds of gay and lesbian couples picked up their marriage licenses as early as 12:01 a.m. Thursday, but because of the state's three-day waiting period, the earliest weddings could take place was just after midnight, early Sunday morning.
Some courthouses, including in King and Thurston Counties, opened right at midnight, and started marrying couples. Seattle City Hall will open for several hours on Sunday starting at 10 a.m., and several local judges are donating their time to marry couples there.
At the Thurston County Courthouse five couples were married, including Jonathon Bashford, 31, and Matthew Wiltse, 29, both of Olympia.
The couple, together for 10 years, just had a large commitment ceremony in September when they registered as domestic partners, but said they wanted to be among the first to legally marry.
"We weren't going to wait one second longer," Wiltse said.
Last month, Washington, Maine and Maryland became the first states to pass same-sex marriage by popular vote. They joined six other states — New York, Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont — and the District of Columbia that had already enacted laws or issued court rulings permitting same-sex marriage.
Couples in Maryland also started picking up marriage licenses Thursday, though their licenses won't take effect until Jan. 1. Maine's law takes effect on Dec. 29. There's no waiting period in Maine, and people can start marrying just after midnight.
Washington Gov. Chris Gregoire and Secretary of State Sam Reed certified the election results of Referendum 74 on Wednesday afternoon, and the law took effect at 12:01 a.m. Thursday. Same-sex couples who previously were married in another state that allows gay marriage, like Massachusetts, will not have to get remarried in Washington state. Their marriages became valid here as soon as the law took effect.
The referendum had asked voters to either approve or reject the state law legalizing same-sex marriage that legislators passed earlier this year. That law was signed by Gregoire in February but was put on hold pending the outcome of the election. Nearly 54 percent of voters approved the measure. Continued...
The law doesn't require religious organizations or churches to perform marriages, and it doesn't subject churches to penalties if they don't marry gay or lesbian couples.
Married same-sex couples will still be denied access to federal pensions, health insurance and other government benefits available to heterosexual couples because the 1996 federal Defense of Marriage Act, known as DOMA, bars federal recognition of gay unions.
The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday said it will take up gay marriage sometime during the current term. Several pending cases challenge the federal benefit provision of DOMA, and a separate appeal asks the justices to decide whether federal courts were correct in striking down California's Proposition 8, the amendment that outlawed gay marriage after it had been approved by courts in the nation's largest state.

Pol Roger Brut Champagne, nonvintage: $52. Pol Roger Brut Champagne, vintage 2002: $110.
What a difference a year makes.
The sparkling wine that we call "vintage," whether from Champagne, France, or any other place that makes wine in the Champagne method, always costs more than the same producer's regular or nonvintage sparkling wine sold next to it on the shelf.
We know that the two wines — even if they are released to the market at the same time from the same winery — are different wines, or else the names wouldn't differ in that one word only, but is the more costly a better wine and, so, deserving of the higher price?
By and large, yes. The singular distinction between the two wines from the same house is that one comes from grapes grown only during one season, but necessarily a beneficent one. Vintage sparkling wines are not produced from harvests that fail to measure up in quality. The wines from those lesser years are used in the winery's nonvintage wine (more properly called, in truth, "multivintage" because it almost always contains many years' wines blended together).
Other factors weigh in to justify the higher charges for vintage sparkling wines. "Overall, it is the length of the process, compared to making nonvintage wines, that explains the price," says Arthur Silvente, a representative of Duval-Leroy, a French Champagne house.
For example, and although it is not a rule that holds in other countries, all French vintage Champagne must lie on its spent yeast cells for a minimum of three years after the commencement of the second fermentation in the bottle. (For nonvintage Champagne, the minimum is 15 months.) Most Champagne houses routinely and willingly exceed, by a long shot, the three years' aging minimum for their vintage wines.
In order to fruitfully and successfully tolerate such aging, vintage Champagne starts out its life with more stuffing. The base wine is always made, not only from grapes raised in a particularly fine single season, but also from those higher-quality, better-tended vineyards and sites that the winemaker either owns or from which it buys grapes. For vintage Champagne, one buys grapes bespoke, not off the rack.
All of this — the better beginning, the longer aging — conspires to create a wine that sports more nuance, greater layering of flavor, increased complexity and greater aging potential than nonvintage Champagne. It understandably costs more.
In my view, the best value in vintage Champagne these days comes from those who are grower-producers. You will see the letters "RM" on labels of their Champagnes (in wee print, near the name of the house); the letters mean "recoltant-manipulant," someone who grows the grapes and then makes the Champagne from them — cradle to capsule, as it were.
2006 J.L. Vergnon Brut Resonance Mesnil sur Oger Champagne: Tasted side by side with the same grower-producer's nonvintage, called Eloquence ($47), you see how the selection of all chardonnay from three Grand Cru vineyards ups all antes in the vintage wine: the mineral-laden, taut and incisive house style is warmed by the character of orchard fruit (apples and pears), finishing with sparks of chalkiness. $62
2002 Laurent Perrier Brut Champagne: Half chardonnay, half pinot noir; half cream, half citrus; half Brahms, half Bach; great price. $55
2002 Moet et Chandon Brut Grand Vintage Champagne: Half chardonnay, half the two pinots (noir and meunier); aged seven years on its yeast; Hawaiian fruit (grilled pineapple, hazelnut, coconut), creamily delivered; the texture is especially appealing. $70
2002 Pol Roger Brut Extra Cuvee de Reserve Champagne: The 2002 vintage was perfect for this house, the punch of power deftly delivered; big but not loud; complex, rich, enticingly scented; like witty conversation, many little things all at once. $110

Entry tags: | probable, research |
The postings take this surname back to the 1600s, and have lots of words in them, including multiple probables, i.e., probable son, probable daughter, probable wife. There are also a number of connections of the probable people to probable fame.
I've read through them and have not found the connection to the man listed in my family tree, born in 1852, and married to one of the women in my direct ancestral line.
I have over 20,000 people in my GEDCOM - and as it is, it needs some cleaning up. I've weeded out dupes - mostly of wives for whom I had no maiden name at first, but later discovered who she was. I still have a lot of MNUs.
I replied to this man when I got his email, thanking him and saying I would be reviewing these posts this weekend.
But I don't see a connection. And I'm not going to hang a bunch of probable people on unconnected limbs of the family tree and cite these message board posts as my authority.
And I'm pretty certain this man will watch my GEDCOM to see if they appear in a new update.
And probably contact me again.
Anyone got a polite reply I can give him when he asks why I haven't included all his probable ancestors in the GEDCOM?

This means you can't do things like dynamically change the timeout each time you receive some data from the stream (essentially creating an idle timeout when doing things like calling remote long-running jobs). However you can use low_speed_limit and low_speed_time options to simulate this behavior.

The main language used on these forums is English. You can post with other languages as well, but please keep it to a minimum rather than doing it on a regular basis. This rule also includes Hymmnos.
EDIT: Since the rule seems to have been misunderstood a little, I've added this small description to it:
Feel free, however, to use any language for artistic purposes in Silver Horn, in your signature, etc.
The main point here is not to abuse other languages for wrong reasons or holding long discussions most members won't be able to understand. A few quick exchanges of words in Indonesian is fine, for example, but an entire page written in it (outside of threads specifically created for that) is not.

There are many effective short-term sleep aids. But over time, the sedating effect can wear off. You may also develop rebound insomnia when you stop the medicine.
The end result? The medicine stops working, but you cant give it up. Some people dont run into this problem. But there are other side effects. For example, sleep drugs may make you less mentally sharp.
I suggest you review your situation carefully before committing to long-term use of sleep medicine.
Consider whether alcohol, caffeine, and/or tobacco are making it harder to get to sleep. Some medicines (for hypertension or asthma) and some illnesses (heart or lung disease) can be culprits. Review these with your doctor.
If you are depressed, anxious, or stressed, get treatment. Some antidepressants can improve sleep patterns.
You can try to improve your sleep hygiene. Avoid alcohol in the evening and coffee after noon. If you smoke, try to stop. Exercise more, but not too close to bedtime. Also, dont eat too much before going to bed (although a small snack is fine).
In the evening, find a way to settle yourself and relax take a bath, for example. Cut down on drinking fluids at night so you dont have to get up to urinate in the night.
Go to bed only when youre sleepy and never to watch TV, read, or eat in the bedroom. Get out of bed if it takes you more than 10 minutes to fall asleep. Get up at the same time every morning.
None of this is easy. But evidence says these techniques work. You can keep the sleep aid prescription handy for occasional use.

Argentina prop Marcos Ayerza is looking forward to the Pumas' next two games against France and Ireland after defeating Wales.
The Pumas launched their European tour in style with a 26-12 win against the Six Nations Grand Slam champions in Cardiff on Saturday where they outscored the World Cup semi-finalists two tries to nil for only their second victory in the Welsh capital.
Wings Juan Imhoff and Gonzalo Camacho crossed in the second half as Argentina overcame the early setback of seeing veteran centre Felipe Contepomi go off with a knee injury in what could be the 35-year-old's final Test.
Argentina arrived for the tour fresh from a debut season in the Rugby Championship where they competed well against world champions New Zealand, South Africa and Australia.
"Playing games against the best sides in the world and playing at a high tempo and intensity can only help us to develop," said Leicester's Ayerza.
"You saw that against Wales. We played 80 minutes at a very good intensity, and this win is massive for us.
"It shows we are going in the right direction and that we are improving as a nation. To beat Wales at the Millennium Stadium is a huge achievement, one that we are very proud of.
"This year has been our first season in the Rugby Championship, and there is no doubt we will continue to improve.
"Now, we have two more massive games coming up against France and Ireland. They will be tough, but this win will have given us extra confidence."

Bomb explodes at Athens shopping mall, 2 wounded
ATHENS, Greece (AP) — A bomb exploded at a shopping mall in Athens on Sunday, slightly wounding two security guards and forcing the evacuation of about 200 people.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the bombing, the latest in a string of violent attacks.
Two warning calls were made to local media about 50 minutes before the blast, leading authorities to evacuate people from the four-story mall in the Maroussi suburb, a police official told the Associated Press. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media.
Shops are closed at the mall on Sundays but restaurants and movie theaters are open. The device exploded about 20 minutes before some movies were to start, mainly children's films.
"Today's bomb attack at The Mall, an area that many mainly young people chose for their Sunday outing, shows that we are faced with a new kind of terrorism that not only choses symbolic targets, but wants death and blood," said the socialist PASOK party, which is part of the three-party governing coalition.
The device was a small bomb believed to have been planted in a trash bin. The blast caused minor damages to nearby stores, the official said.
The bomb comes after a string of apparently politically-motivated attacks, as Greece struggles through a financial crisis that has led successive governments to impose deeply resented salary and pension cuts and tax hikes.
In recent days, small explosive devices were planted outside the homes of journalists and of the government spokesman's brother, while others targeted bank ATM machines.
Small armed groups have been active in Greece for decades, often planting bombs at night at company offices, but daytime attacks in public places are rare.
Last Monday, gunmen opened fire with an assault rifle on the headquarters of the conservative party, which heads the governing coalition. No injuries were caused, and there has been no claim of responsibility. Continued...

Why did we choose the Diaper Dekor Plus over other diaper pails? Because our testers found it contained odors better and was the easiest to use! No yucky pushing, twisting, or otherwise messing with dirty diapers; just step on the hands-free pedal and drop the diaper inside. Plus, it's a terrific value: the liners are economical, and it lives on as a trash can once your diapering days are done. Finally, we like the Diaper Dekor Plus' streamlined, contemporary look. Because the best diaper disposal system is the one you notice least! Holds an average of 40 diapers. Disposable refill included. See Product Details

Love the Diaper Dekor!

Comments about Regal Lager Diaper Dekor Plus Diaper Pail System:
We LOVE our Diaper Dekor! We actually have two... one upstairs in our 9 month old's nursery and on the main floor of the house. Both of them have held up great so far. We use each one multiple times a day every day. We never realized how much we relied on it until we traveled and were without it. One dirty diaper can stink up an entire hotel room in an hour. We've never had an issue with a lingering smell in our home. The Dekor always holds it in. There are times when you can smell the old diapers after having just thrown a diaper in, but it normally goes away after just a minute or two.

Great for cloth diapers!
By Jilly Bean's Mom
from Sacramento, CA
I am using cloth diapers with a diaper service. I searched high and low for a diaper pail that would contain the smell since the dirty diapers go out once a week. A lot of the more popular pails make you squish the diaper down into a twisted bag which would be super gross with a cloth diaper. The trap door on this does a good job of containing the smell but isn't hard to put a dirty diaper through. The refills seem to last a long time and aren't badly priced.

Good for the first 6 months
By Luca's Mom
from Chicago, IL
We bought this pail because it was simple to use and that is a great quality of it, however, after about 6 months the smell somehow starts to linger and it is impossible to get rid of. I found myself changing the bag almost every day because I thought it would help the smell, and have cleaned the inside with bleach but it continues to smell. My son's room just smells when I go in there because of the pail- just ordering a new different one from this site so hoping to have better luck.

Cf the original family of three brothers and three sisters, only one sister, Mrs. Martha Wall, Sand Springs, survives.

Comments On Mar 06, 2013:My chain guide was a little bent up causing the rubber part to wear fast in one spot. I figured I'd bent it back throw this on and be done with it. Not the case! Bending it back was a real pain. The Acerbis chain guide worked fine after I got my part straightened out, but If i were to do it over again I would just buy a whole new aftermarket one.

As part of our Scorecard debate here is a new guest blog post - this time we hear from Prof. Michael E. Smith (University of Aberdeen). You can also follow him on twitter @ProfMESmith.
May 9 was Europe Day - for the EU. The Council of Europe, however, set May 5 as its Europe Day. Europeans, it seems, can't even agree on when to celebrate their unity. Worse, the EU in particular is having yet another identity crisis involving self-doubt and internal recriminations. This time, however, it seems different; a recent poll by the Pew Research Centre warns that support for the EU has fallen from 60% to 45%. Perhaps most EU citizens realise that things are more serious this time, because the stakes are higher. The creation of the euro zone has locked a subset of EU countries into an uneasy, and unbalanced, relationship with each other, while simultaneously causing some non-euro EU

Today relations between the US and Turkey are in a much better shape than a few years ago. Israel's decision to apologise to the Turks over the 2010 Gaza flotilla incident and offer financial compensation, reached after heavy American lobbying, has given the Obama administration a sigh of relief. Now that the US is seeking to extricate itself from the Middle East and pivot to East Asia, two critical allies are willing to re-engage. Today's visit of Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan to Washington DC must be seen in this context. The Turkish leader is received with top honours by Obama and Biden, and is given plenty of time and attention. The fact is that he and the US president have managed to build a strong relationship which also survived the dark days when there was a lot of talk about Ankara's turn to the East - towards Iran, Hamas and the like. The sheer number of meetings between
The European economy now lies under a shadow - the severe situation of unemployment, stagnation and cutbacks in the welfare state, bringing hardship to millions of Europeans. The magnitudes are impressive. If the 26 million unemployed people in the EU declared their independence, they would be the sixth-largest state in terms of population.
To illustrate this, what country would be better than Spain? There are now more unemployed Spaniards than there are people in Denmark (5.5 million), not to mention less populous states such as Slovakia, Finland and several others. If the 6.2 million unemployed Spaniards decided to secede from Spain and set up their own state, there would be no less than 11 states dwarfed by this hypothetical "Republic of the Dole". Of course, while all these jobless Spaniards lack a political voice of their own, those 11 states of the EU each have a commissioner
"If elections changed anything they would have them banned". So read a well-known piece of Sofia graffiti some years ago (inspired by political activist/anarchist Emma Goldman). Bulgaria's parliamentary polls on 12 May 2013 seem to confirm the bitter cynicism of this slogan as almost half of Bulgaria's electorate did not turn up at the voting booths. The low turnout is striking, given that as recently as February, economic hardship and widespread resentment of the political class propelled thousands onto the streets of Sofia, Varna and other big cities voicing demands for a complete overhaul of "the system".
Three months on, it is apathy that prevails, not the will to install fresh faces in parliament. More than one grouping claimed to represent the protesters, but none made it past the 4% threshold. As I wrote in March, Bulgaria isn't getting its own Beppe Grillo or Alexis
Kiruna - a calm town in North Sweden - is currenty hosting the annual Arctic Council Ministerial Meeting. The Arctic Council is a regional organisation which usually does not receive a lot of geopolitical attention as it mainly focuses on environment, shipping and joint research. However, this time the meeting of foreign ministers will also debate whether to grant China and other Asian nations such as India, Japan, and Singapore an observer status. The application of the EU will also be on the agenda. Everyon is suddenly eager to get a seat at the table.
China's bid for a seat among the Arctic member states has made most of a media splash because of China's growing power and increasingly global reach. As the ice is melting, the Arctic has also become an interesting region in terms of new shipping routes, but it also offers potential for resource extractio. The U.S. Geological

Allen corrals OK finish at Shootout: Eagles surge on Day 2 after rough start
BY Kevin Hageland, firstname.lastname@example.com
A 4-5 record at a 7-on-7 tournament would normally be considered a disappointment for Allen.
However, because of the structure of the Arkansas-based Shootout of the South event, the Eagles were able to bounce back from a poor first day of pool play Friday and reel off three straight wins Saturday en route to the semifinals of the 19-team event.
"Day 1, we were not ready to play," said Jeff Fleener, Allen offensive coordinator. "I don't know if we lost a little bit from traveling the day before, but we did not play Allen football and we had a team meeting after that first day to fix things up."
"Our guys love going up to Little Rock and the kids who have been there before really get the newer players fired up about going," Fleener said. "We really like that Texas versus Arkansas dynamic, even though most of the fans are openly cheering against us regardless of who we play."
The fans had plenty to cheer about Friday as Allen went 1-4 in pool play.
The Eagles defeated Afton (24-21) and lost to Nashville (30-16), Little Rock Central (29-23), Lake Hamilton (28-21) and Pulaski Academy (39-8). Allen had played Pulaski in the past two tournament finals with the host team wining both.
"We were looking forward to that game," Fleener said. "But by that point, the mood and atmosphere around our team was not good."
The Shootout of the South allows all teams to advance to bracket play. So while Allen, which won the 7-on-7 event at the NIKE Football Festival a week prior, would have some work to do on Saturday, it still had a chance to replicate its feat in McKinney.
The Eagles wasted no time getting to work in the elimination rounds.
"We just flipped a switch," Fleener said, "and became the team we usually send up to Arkansas and the one that we sent to the NIKE event."
Allen opened with a 53-7 win over Norman in which its opponent didn't get a first down until it scored a touchdown with 30 seconds remaining.
The Eagles defense was strong all day with solid play in the backfield from Mayomi Olootu, Michael Jacob, Chad Adams and Cameron Hartsfield as well as up front from Nick Cobb, Ryan Johnson, Zach Bishop and Christian Sam. Allen followed its win over Norman with a 39-9 victory against Heritage Hall to capture its sectional tournament. The Eagles then bested Central, 36-0, in the tournament quarterfinals. Four interceptions allowed Allen to turn the tables on Central less than 24 hours after their first meeting.
"It really didn't have anything to do with Central as much as we were finally playing up to our level," Fleener said.
That includes the offense as Oliver Pierce paced a plethora of scoring drives. When Pierce wasn't quarterbacking, he was again catching passes out of the slot from Connor Greenberg.
"Oliver and Connor both played well and got the offense going," Fleener said.
Pierce and Greenberg frequently found Troy Knudsen, who Fleener noted as a potential team leader, and Grant Finney for touchdown strikes with Will Rossy and Nick Hinkley also appearing as though they will be able to make varsity contributions come fall.
Allen's win over Central put the team into the semifinals against Watson Chapel.
The Eagles would fall short of a third straight meeting against eventual champions Pulaski though as Watson Chapel was victorious, 18-16.
"We had a couple breaks go against us," Fleener said, "but that's just how it goes and none of our guys were whining or complaining about how the game went."
That could also serve as an appropriate description of Allen's tournament run.
"I was surprised that we did not play well on Friday, but the guys refocused and I was extremely proud of how they played Saturday," Fleener said. "This was our last 7-on-7 for the summer, so I think that second day left a good taste in our mouth going forward."

Chicago, the Windy City, is filled to the brim with exciting sights and experiences. One of Chicago's most famous features is its glorious skyline, which is especially awe-inspiring when viewed from the lake. While on the waterfront, you can also enjoy a Ferris wheel ride at Navy Pier. If you'd like to catch your breath and relax, why not take a stroll through one of the city's many parks, like Lincoln Park or Millenium Park? For those looking for some excellent shopping, head to Magnificent Mile, which is one of the most famous shopping districts in the US.
Chicago also offers stunning sights for architecture lovers and history fans; there's plenty of prestigious museums where you can learn all about the US railways, the notorious gangsters of the 1920s, including Al Capone, and much more. When in town, you can also enjoy some excellent jazz music while dining in one of the city's cosy restaurants.
