This gift basket was for my sister and her husband who worked tirelessly for my benefit. They loved the presentation, the delivery was on time (a day early which was great). When I asked my sister about the contents she was delighted to compliment each item they had tried so far which included the wine, cheese spread, cocoa dusted truffles and cheese swirls. They were excited to indulge in the remaining items. As the purchaser of the gift, I could not be more thrilled with the quality and price. Highly recommend Wine Country Gift Baskets.

I ordered several wine baskets as Christmas gifts; recipients said thank you & all seemed well. However, when I repeated a wine basket order at Easter for my son, who is a chef, he called to tell me the truth, i.e., the basket looked beautiful, but the wine was watery and the snacks were poor quality. Since it was the same basket as at Christmas, he suggested that I discuss the matter with Wine County and tell them that the wine and the snacks in that basket were not good. He apologized for having to be negative about my gift, but he said he knew I would want to know before I ordered more of the baskets in the future. Needless to say I was very disappointed to hear that evaluation of the wine basket gift. I was embarrased that my friends and famiily had received a poor quality product as a gift, and I was upset that I had spent money on gifts represented to me as top quality when they were not.

An anniversary gift and they loved it!

Comments about Briar Creek Cellars Double Delight:
This was a long distance gift; and short notice to Wine Country. It arrived on the appropriate day in a not to easy place to find. The receiver said it was beautifully wrapped and presented, the wine excellent. They were thrilled with my choice.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Every one enjoyed it. They even asked for a catalog. When someone wants a catalog you know that you made an impression on them. Keep them coming!
Loved the gift basket
By Michele
from Denver, CO
I sent this as a surprise to my mother for Easter. She loved it. She called me to thank me and was over the moon. My mom said the basket it came in was 'beautiful'. The goodies were perfect. This is a great "thinking of you" gift or even a holiday gift.

Great gift!
By dog lover

The product arrived right on time. Customer service before I ordered was the best! And, the recipient loved it. I was so happy to find a gift that included wine...sometimes chocolate just isn't enough.

- Still working out kinksAvalongirlDined on 9/27/2014My husband and I have dined here on several occasions. This visit was disappointing. The French Onion Soup was barely warm. It needed to be sent back. I am not a fish eater so I ordered the roast chicken. The au jus was watery and flavorless. I attribute our disappointment to the fact The Reeds was hosting a large wedding party in the "ballroom". I will go back but I'll make sure there is no wedding. The staff cannot handle both wedding reception and fine dining.Special Features:
- Very goodteamguidoDined on 9/27/2014Very good drinks at the bar. The martini and manhattan were made very well. Table for two was comfortable but noise level was very high. Starters, entrees and dessert were excellent. Service was very good. Very pleasant experience...but alittle noisy. We would return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Great Dining ExperienceTravelPopPopDined on 9/22/2014My wife and I were spending a few days at the Reeds and decided to try SAX on our final evening. The resturant is beautiful and upscale. Staff was pleasent, knowledgable, and efficient. Pre dinner drinks at the bar were excellent. The West Coast oysters were outstanding as was my wife's shrimp cocktail. My short ribs were tender and flavorful, and my wife's roasted half chicken was moist and cooked to perfection. We cose from a very impressive swine selection, and enjoyed an excellent red. We shared the coconut ice cream for a great desert. Overall, a memorable meal. We'll be back.Special Features:
- Really Good. Extremely OverpricedKecLVIPDined on 9/20/2014The food is really good. The atmosphere and decor is the second best in Stone Harbor. But, that shouldn't mean you pay NYC prices for your drinks and dinner. Extremely overpriced.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not worth itjustmarried0730Dined on 8/23/2014The food was good but the portion size was not enough for the price. When the entrees came out I really wanted to ask where the rest of our food was. The entrees list sides on the menu but the sides you are so small. I left and had to go home and eat something since i was still hungry. I wouldn't go back as they are overpriced for what you get.Special Features:
- OPEN TABLE SAX FAILUREbrobertDined on 8/10/2014THE RESTAURANT WAS CLOSED ON THE CONFIRMED TIME. OPEN TABLE AND SAX FAILED
- What a festive atmospheremginamgVIPDined on 8/9/2014My husband and I had dinner here on a whim. We're residents of Stone Harbor, and find ourselves eating in Sax most frequently. We had great drinks before dinner; we shared a delicious starter; we each enjoyed a scrumptious entrée; and we finished with a dessert drink from the menu!! It was a great experience from soup to nuts!!Special Features:
- Simple and ElegantOpenTable Diner Since 2012VIPDined on 7/24/2014Basic dishes, but perfectly prepared and seasoned. The service still needs a little work to catch up.Special Features:
- Great Date Night in Stone HarborAHogenDined on 7/16/2014My husband and I have dined at Sax twice and both times the food was excellent. I love the decor and upscale ambiance. We had drinks at the bayfront restaurant at sunset to complete a perfect evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great room with a cool vibeOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 7/13/2014Saw the negative reviews, were a bit hesitant but a friend who is a fussy foodie had a great meal, so.. Dining room with beautiful decor, cool vibe. Music, Billy Holiday, great. Wine, we were offered tastings to decide.Red needs to be a bit cooler it was warm. Server, Marcus, very professional. The food was very good. Fresh house salad was dressed lightly. Excellent mussels. Perfect filet, only the very tasty potatoes were not hot. The tuna was good needed a bit more of a hard sear. Desserts complex, Loved the fried rice pudding, very rich but worth it! Got loud with a few large parties. Noticed that dishes were often placed in front of the wrong people. We did not have that problem. Will definitely try again. Had a very nice evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistently good experienceCPlaceVIPDined on 7/9/2014This is our 4th visit to Sax restaurant in Stone Harbor. Each time the service has been excellent, food consistently good and quiet enough to have a conversation without yelling across the table. There were families, couples, small groups eating there and the noise level was still good. That is a rare find at the shore. Enjoyed the specialty cocktails and nice selection of wine. Salmon special was delicious. They even had a fantastic gluten free dessert.Special Features:
- Unprofessional serviceBearsmomVIPDined on 7/2/2014Blaming the bartender for late drinks and the chef neglecting to add and vegetarian entrees on his being very busy opening other restaurants is completely unprofessional and off-putting. And seriously, in this day and she in a supposedly modern establishment, no vegetarian options? Thumbs DOWN. We won't be back
- Swing and missSpitdocVIPDined on 7/2/2014Food was good not great but consistent. The service flaws became numerous. We were given two courses without silverware and had to ask for some twice. The main server or his team did not clear ANY plates before asking if we would like to have dessert. It has potential but for the price the ok food and amateurish service must improve. Very nice setting and bar seemed appealing but empty as well. Had far better meal at Steve and Cookies in Margate and La Fontana Coast in SIC. Lots of potential but way too many mistakes and sloppy service concept. If they respond to many minor things that added up, could be a great destination but current experience felt expensive
- Great food, awful seatingJoeMDined on 6/28/2014My girlfriend and I were both floored by the quality of our dinner. Superb. But the seating was awful and the ambience was unoriginal and you never forgot you were in a hotel.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- It's Passable for ConvenienceNeuron123VIPDined on 6/14/2014If you are staying at the Reeds, and you don't feel like walking across the street, the SAX is passable. The menu is unimaginative and the food is under seasoned. It is convenient.
- Surprisingly Nice MealjdwbaltoDined on 6/12/2014We have been coming to Stone Harbor for many years. With the Reeds now anchoring a prominent corner in town, we looked forward to trying out the Sax restaurant. The mediocre reviews gave us some pause. We had a very good meal. All three courses were presented nicely. The food was well prepared and tasty. I do feel the prices are, perhaps, slightly high, but not unexpected in a resort location. The staff was friendly and attentive, almost to a fault ( but I can't take points off for this effort ), a situation which will improve as the venue matures. Overall, we had a delightful evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ExpensiveOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 6/7/2014Very expensive! Food was Not worth the price. Great service, nice staff but for the cost of the meal I expected to love my meal and I didn't.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved the food and ambianceReReVIPDined on 6/4/2014I love Stone Harbor most before the seasons starts fully. I am so pleased to have such a lovely spot as Sax open all year. Our meal was great and the service was good, given the restaurant was less than full. However, the host did not acknowledge our arrival with Open Table and I received a reprimand from Open Table for failing to honor my reservation. Plus, I had called twice earlier in the day to confirm details and no one returned my call as promised on the voice mail. These omissions raise questions and room for doubts. I SO want this establishment to be wildly successful!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great Evening!!!MitchDined on 6/1/2014All the bases were covered from service to food to the beautiful setting. Server Marcus was professional and a asset to the company.Special Features:
- Very expensive, no children's menuluvtorevuDined on 6/1/2014Our meal was good, but very expensive. Plus there was no children's menu available, and they would not let us order off the children's menu being served at the outdoor bar located just outside the restaurant even though it is in the same hotel, located just 50 yards away. What hotel restaurant in a family-oriented beach town doesn't offer a children's menu??
- It overestimates itselfOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 5/27/2014The entire vibe of Sax tries to present an upscale dining experience and is priced accordingly. Unfortunately the food just really isn't that great. It's not bad, it's just not what they think it is or pretend it is. Most people are coming from the Philly or New York area to Avalon and most probably know what a four star dinner tastes like. So they're not really fooling anyone. There are much better places to eat on the island, like Fuze.
- DisappointingShorebndDined on 5/24/2014This was my 4th dinner there in 8 months & the 2nd time that I brought a group. The menu's become pedestrian; no specials. Two entrees were served cold - bronzinos; we had to wait until 2 more were cooked. Altho' many tables were empty when we arrived, our table for 7 had not been set up. We had a child with us & we asked if an item from the Water Star Grille menu could be served. The response was that my group had to move outside to that area where it was windy and cold. Two after dinner drinks, Sambuca, were served without coffee beans & it on the verge of turning - terrible "bouquet;" borderline taste. I won't return to such a bland menu @ an organization that is so user unfriendly. The formerly free valet service has a $7 charge!
- Disappointing BrunchSJfoodieDined on 5/18/2014I was looking forward to trying Sunday brunch at The Reeds however it was a real disappointment. The smaller, more intimate dining room was booked for a wedding brunch. Buffet was the only option. It would have been nice to have the option of ordering off of the menu. The presentation of the different stations was sparse. The room felt very much like a banquet room and we were the only table seated inside. The service was ok, nothing spectacular. All in all, not an experience I wish to repeat anytime soon.Special Features:
- Very unimpressedDisapointedDined on 5/13/2014My wife and I dine out at least twice a week, usually in Cape May but wanted to try Sax. The hostess and bartender were very good and pleasant. As we entered the dining area there was a strong fishy smell. The server was interactive and pleasant. The food, not so good. Don't mind paying the high price but the food should compliment the costs. Very bland and Steak not prepared to temp as requested. It was sent back and returned quickly with nothing done to it. The server was saying the cook was blaming the cut of the meat (New your strip). Never heard that one before. The "grilled" asparagus was awful, it tasked like an uncleaned cast iron pan, black oily residue was left on the plate. Wife did not eat her diner and for it, got $10.00 off.
- Closed1210VIPDined on 5/13/2014Made a reservation for SAX at 12:45 pm for Tuesday May 13. When we got there the restaurant was closed. In that we drove quite a distance to dine there we were vey upset at this miscommunication between the restaurant and Open Table. I have written to Open Table for an answer but to no avail. Thus the above ratings are not reflective our an experience but posted so that we can submit this to open table.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Training neededBrunchVIPDined on 5/12/2014Second time here. Was first doused by the waitress pouring our water Then our order took forever after another large party was seated The bartender chipped in and showed better service Food was "sparse" for the price First time was better Second time a disappointment Left hungry
- Service needs workAmooDined on 5/11/2014Made 1:30 reservation for 6 for Mother's Day Brunch - arrived 5 minutes before time, was told we'd be seated closer to 2pm. When I stated that the reservation was made for 1:30 I was told "well, we have three seatings today, and the next one is at 2pm." When I asked why I was not informed of that (and why I could even make a reservation for an earlier time) I was answered with a shrug and a point towards the lounge. Staff had a difficult time keeping the buffet full of food - were they not aware of how many guests to expect at the "next seating"? (i.e. via reservations?). When a guest politely notified a server that there was no more cocktail sauce for the seafood items, she was told "ok, we'll get to it."Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Weekly visitsmginamgVIPDined on 3/12/2014We go to The Sax Restaurant every week for lunch because the menu is so versatile. Their weekly specials are so beautifully presented, and the amazing thing is that they're just as good as they look.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great lunchLimaDined on 2/16/2014I love the fact that the salad you get with the entree for lunch is a real salad and delicious, as were the fries. My entire party of 6 enjoyed their lunchSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great retreat, very noisyMadotzDined on 2/15/2014The restaurant is very trendy. Great food and service, but the noise level when it is full is terrible. We could not hear each other's conversation and we were directly across from each other.Special Features:
- Valentine DatecatwizVIPDined on 2/14/2014Menu was interesting and varied, even for a busy night like this one. Room was bright, but classy. Entres were small in size, but really good, so I was happy with that. We had chocolate fondue for two, That was a very romantic touch!Special Features:
- A Surprising DiscoveryOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 1/14/2014To try someplace new off-season in Cape May, we drove 12 miles to Sax, worth every mile of the drive! Located in a small hotel, Sax has a separate bar area with its own menu. (The dining room menu is also available here.) The decor in the bar is sophisticated and upscale, but not stuffy.There is also a deck overlooking the bay for casual summer dining. The sophisticated ambience continues in the dining room, with gentle lighting, dark brown walls, and a romantic fireplace. The menu had an adequate range of offerings. My husband loved his Lobster Mac and Cheese , and my 8 oz Beef Tenderloin was perfect.Portions were sensibly sized.I should say that the service was excellent as well: friendly and attentive but not intrusive. We'll return!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Seashore Dinner TreatAliChopDined on 12/29/2013We went to Sax on a cold wet December night but they had a fire burning in the fire place which helped to keep away the dampness. Even with this being the off season there was a good number of people that came in for dinner around the same time. The servers had to be really on their toes to keep up. There was 1 waitress and a maître d working and the hotel bartender that came in to help. At times service did seem thin but they were extremely nice. As for the meals we ordered filets and they were cooked and seasoned wonderfully. They came with a very small portion of garlic mashed potatoes which could have been more. We also had dessert and it was very good too. Overall it was a nice meal and I would go back again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BrunchAmooDined on 12/29/2013Very attentive service. Wide variety of food selections on buffet.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent 7 Mile Island DiningEndothelinDined on 10/12/2013October 12, 2013 was a cold, rainy, windy nor'easter night. My party arrived a few minutes before 7 and were immediately seated by the fireplace which took the chill off on such an evening. The service was professional and without a hitch--everyone knew their role. I thought the wine list was impressive both in scope and value. It took very little effort to find a winner--a Marlborough Sauv Blanc. The best dishes of the night were the crab cake appetizer, uniquely paired w/pickled onions and a tzatziki sauce, the veal chop special, cooked to pink perfection and served with grilled seasonal vegetables, and the apple strudel dessert. I thought the overall experience was outstanding at that price point and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Will not return to Sax01MJVIPDined on 9/28/2013We went because we are local to Avalon. The restaurant,Sax, is in a hotel so the diners are sometimes family groups. The restaurant is right next to the wedding room, so you hear the blaring dj and the bass vibration the entire time. This noise is on top of the already very loud dining room.The decor is nice but not at all intimate. The wine list was not properly assorted nor edited to be inclusive of basic French Chardonnay nor a mid range Champagne. The list is low end and then high end; no middle.The food was the biggest disappointment of all. The basic caesar salad had tomotoes and was plated in a bowl. We did not enjoy our entrees of meatloaf and grouper. Grouper was in broth; overdone and over spiced. The meatloaf was not interesting.
- We would go back for sure.JackDined on 9/21/2013We would go back for sure. Food was excellent, service was superior and the setting was just what we wanted. Our server, Teresa, was very personable yet professional. Another server (Mark, a friend & Avalon neighbor) recommended the soup and the double-cut pork chop... both were incredible.Special Features:
- too badTrishDined on 9/18/2013Shame the service ruins your night . took 55 mins just to get bread and its the OFF Season ! Wonder how they make it during the height of the season?. No staff teamwork and they were clearly over their head . Should have listened to my friend who dined there weeks ago. They had same experience I hope they take the feedback and turn things around !
- New Spot in Stone HarborNickDined on 9/16/2013Both the inside and outside locations are very good. Great sunsets. Food was excellentSpecial Features:
- Pleasantly surprised. ExpectedOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/7/2013Pleasantly surprised. Expected an overpriced, seasonal "place to go", and actually experienced a fairly priced dinner of decent quality. No soup, salad, or vegetables and not the freshest rolls, but drink prices were reasonable. Service was fine, and the decor refreshing. Not bad for a resort town establishment. I will recommend and return again.

PLAYERS: Tom Seaver, David Wright, Jason Bay
TEAMS: New York Mets, St. Louis Cardinals
TEAMS: New York Mets, St. Louis Cardinals
Total Mets is a must-have account of Mets history. Fans old and new will enjoy this well-written account by David Ferry. I wonder how my career might have turned out had I played for another team. Quite honestly, I think it might have been easier for me in the major leagues. When you start your career on a bad ballclub, everything is centered around yourself.–However, I was fortunate enough to have played in my hometown: New York. It's the greatest sports town around. If you can play in New York and have a career here, they remember you for life. -Ed Kranepool in Total Mets: The Definitive Encyclopedia of the New York Mets' First Half-Century Total Mets: The Definitive Encyclopedia of the New York Mets' First Half-Century by David Ferry is a tell-all account of the New York Mets existence. Just in case you forgot about the gut-wrenching moments that made you sweat out your Shake Shack burger, this fantastic account is here to provide you with detailed documentations of everything New York Mets. Total Mets is ideal for Mets fans new and old, exploring every imaginable facet of the club's history. Year-by-year recaps are given as much detail as one would like, with background and interesting stories to supplement. You'll be reminded of how how miserable Keith Hernandez became once he was traded from the St. Louis Cardinals to the New York Mets, only to become enamored with the city that he helped earn a championship for in 1986. While the book isa true encyclopedia, the recaps read more as chapters to a story that you've known for years and never want to forget. You'll find yourself flipping through the pages, reminiscing about Donn Clenndenon, Tug McGraw, Tom Seaver with a smile beaming only seconds before being enraged by the "Midnight Massacre". From the highs of 1969 and 1986 to the dark ages of the mid-late 70s, to the collapses of 2007 and beyond, it's all here in vivid detail. Perhaps the most impressive aspect of True Mets is the "Player Profiles" section in which Ferry accounts for the players that helped to define the orange and blue culture. Starting with Tommy Agee and concluding with David Wright (You'll have to forgive him for excluding Jason Bay, quite obviously the most iconic Met of all-time) you'll find long and detailed accounts of each player's time with the Mets. Looking to read up on where Jose Reyes ranks amongst other Mets leadoff men? A detailed chart will provide a visual aid to help assist you in realizing how truly special a player he was. Forgot how Rick Reed flirted with pitching a perfect game twice in 1998? That, too, is thoroughly covered. David Ferry has created a can't-miss account for Mets fans young and old, fair-weather or die-hard. His enthusiasm for the club pours through with the tremendous effort that he has put forth, and learning that Total Mets is his first book speak testaments to how talented Ferry is. Total Mets is available now in bookstores and online through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other retailers. The post Total Mets: The Definitive Encyclopedia Of The New York Mets' First Half-Century appeared first on The Daily Stache.

Developing Budget Proposals
Fiscal Years 2014 and 2015 (May 1, 2013–April 30, 2015)
The University Budget Committee was convened in a September 16, 2012 memorandum from President Kerwin and is charged with developing budget proposals for the next cycle of resource allocation. Provost Scott Bass and CFO, Vice President and Treasurer Don Myers conducted the initial meeting of the committee on September 24, 2012 in President Kerwin's office.
The work of the University Budget Committee has several important aspects and deadlines. It is charged with development of budget formulation criteria for the president's review and approval prior to his submission of them to the Board of Trustees at the November 2012 meeting. The proposed criteria must be submitted to the president no later than November 1, 2012. Following the actions of the board on the formulation criteria, the committee will develop detailed budget proposals for the president's review and approval and then consideration by the board at the February 2013 meeting. The tentative deadline to submit the proposed two-year budget to the president is February 8, 2013.
As in the past, the new budget that the committee will propose will be guided by the university's strategic plan. At the board's September 2012 meeting, the president provided a report to the trustees on our progress to date on the objectives set for the second two years under the strategic plan. Shortly thereafter, the community will engage in a university-wide process to define our objectives under the plan for the next two years. Careful coordination is needed to ensure that the committee has the guidance it needs to establish both formulation criteria and detailed budgets that are fully informed by the strategic plan. The president met with the committee at the outset of its work to discuss how this can be best accomplished. The president will also remind the broader community that it is imperative they participate actively in this next phase of planning to assist in the development of a responsive and responsible budget for the university.
As is AU's practice, wide consultation and the free flow of pertinent information will characterize the work of the committee. The committee will collect information on priorities and requirements from all campus constituencies using various forms of outreach, including town hall meetings. The university's performance is examined, measured, and documented in a variety of ways. The results of these analyses will be available for the committee's review. Comparative information from peer and competitor institutions will also be part of the deliberations.
The University Budget for Fiscal Years 2012 and 2013 and the most recent Annual Reports are available on the Office of Finance website.

Okay, so at 6:37PM, China launched their 2nd manned space rocket, Shenzhou No. 9, successfully to space. Mission? To dock the space lab Tiangong-1.
So here I am sitting in the living room, watching the CCTV (China's Central TV station) News Channel covering the countdown to the launch with a whole bunch of operators blaring out control checks every second. Overdone? Maybe. But then again, I wasn't even born yet when U.S. launched Neil Armstrong up to the moon, I'm guessing the news coverage for that would JUST be as nerve-wrecking. But this was back in the 60s…people had a lot to be nervous about, it's about 2012 now, should we even be worried that this launch wouldn't be successful?
My dad's sitting on my left, eyes glued to the TV. I can imagine anime sweatdrops going down the side of his face as the clock ticks.
I'm in the middle of the couch, my mind going: "Well, if the rocket decides to malfunction, China can't just decide to blackout all the satellites and TVs in the world, saying that 'we're currently experiencing difficulties' and mask that it never happened." [China censorship - what can you say?]
My mom's on the right, and the first thing she asks is: "What are you all watching?"
Dad: "The launch of Shenzhou No. 9, China's second manned space rocket"
Mom: "WHY ARE THEY WASTING MONEY ON SHOOTING PEOPLE TO THE MOON? BETTER USE FOR OTHER THINGS!"
LOL. #TRUTH. I had to repeat this whole scenario, because you would imagine everyone in this country to be glued to their TV, so very proud of their country, being the 3rd in the WORLD to launch men into space. Now it gets you wondering, aside from the lab tests and research and whatever scientific studies they'll be doing up in space, what is China's point of sending people up there?
Pride? Oh yeah, for sure. Nothing can be said about the immense 'PROUD ASIAN PARENTS' notion, it's clearly written everywhere on the officials' faces when the camera pans around the control room. To prove what though? That China's the super-power of the world now? I think that's pretty much proven when they've got the world's consumer production under their grip. Not to mention that almost every country depends on trade with China now [let's not go to the topic about how the Philippines decided that they were gonna fight with China, only to have their imports + exports embargoed from China, and now their economy is suffering].
Though Mom makes a very good point though of China maybe could spend the money elsewhere than throwing it into a space rocket…save the Euro maybe? Plans for urban development in the rural area? BETTER EDUCATION? (Oh wait, I mean mannerism, sorry). I actually asked if it was possible to save the Euro and her reply was, "Euro is screwed, no point."
My reaction to this whole space launch? One eyebrow raised…and the phrase: "OKAY CHINA."

By Emilio Neriz, Tucson News Now intern
TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) - The Humane Society of Southern Arizona receives a great number of lost and frightened pets every year during the monsoon season.
According to The Humane Society of Southern Arizona, many dogs and cats are afraid of the loud noises associated with the thunderstorms. This can cause your pets to jump fences and run great distances to try to avoid the commotion.
Some animals are so afraid of the noise that their reactions can result in them causing harm to themselves.
The HSSA recommends to keep your pets indoors, and if possible, make them a room without any windows; turn on the television or radio to provide soothing sounds; try using a Thundershirt to keep your pet calm; and if in the worst case scenario, make sure your pet has a collar with an identification tag with current contact information, and have your pet microchipped.
If your pet becomes lost, immediately contact HSSA's lost and found department at (520) 327-6088 ext. 111 as well as Pima Animal Care Center at (520) 243-5900 to file a lost report and to receive information on how to conduct an effective search.

So if you are procrastinating, it's human to look for help which can facilitate your effort in accomplishing daily tasks as schedule great time management chart for the same. People use GTD as shortcut too, when looking productivity help for getting things done. Both have same meaning and are nothing more than using effective how to get organized strategy. If procrastination is an obstacle for you to not even start working on your important projects/daily assignments, than consider this described and visual tips as your only way for achieving more by working less. It's not so hard to make things flow, it's not so hard to manage your time for maximum productivity like others want you to believe so.
"The challenge for discipline about how to get things done will kill procrastination forever"
"What" and "Who" you are at the moment reading this, in time, the same represents nothing more than completion of your regular activity, which is also true for what makes you completely organized person. Allowing that procrastination destructive habit caught you will only result in failure your future important stuff. How to stop procrastinating question has no self management "cure" answer, but has requirement from you to include your ability to TAKE ACTION! Why procrastination always appear to produce resistance is unknown, but it's for sure that can push you away when it's time for something important to start.
Below I have great tips that I've used to use when I was looking for how to get things done and were of great help to me. There is also nice looking project management picture you can use to visualize you own important duties. And a quick word of warning: It's common sense that all those tools, methods as these tips to become fact useless if you don't take action, so my best recommendation for you is stop reading and get your job done!
… i was able to learn and obviously achieve how to be productive person. So to solve your problem now, make yourself comfortable seat and enjoy reading the rest of this article, also do not forget to share the same if you get it damn good.
Master How To Get Things Done In 5 Easy Stages
This 5 core process for how to get things done fast will teach you to master the art of relaxed task management in order. The 5 core process is consisted of: (1) collect important parts that demand right workflow, (2) processing demanded stuff, what they mean as what to do with them (3) systematize all results which you'll (4) include as primary of what you'll select and (5) work with. Clear as mud right.. , but don't worry, how to stay focused with the explanation above, below is great visualized picture for your goal setting.
Collecting is your most important factor for how to get things done – Phase (1)
Collecting phase is consisted of gathering everything that hooks your attention and is appropriate for your ongoing activity. It may contain emails, phone calls, reports, magazine articles, etc. This process requires one or multiple collecting tools (notebook, folders, etc.) and all those is what define your "in-basket" rectangle, which appears at top left side. As first and most important step, this collecting stuff is what will let you take control over the selected work material.
Process and Systematize Your Job Using gtd tools Pictured Below – Phase (2) & (3)
The process for how to get things done David Allen has made great explanation in his recent seminar and what I've found and will be easier for you Is if I make little description about the same that summarizes this project management chart. The flowchart describes this GTD process for how to organize the stuff that came in collect "stuff" point and the categories that require action.
Rectangles are your actions, diamonds are decision steps and stacks you'll use as external memory (files, folders …) where your reminders will be stored. Arrows with continuous lines are your ongoing activity, arrows with broken lines represent your delayed processes and arrows with dotted lines will be used when reviewing the existing external memory. To repeat, you take item from "In-Basket" (top left), and process the same as you go through the questions. All ends when the item is either for external memory or require appropriate action to perform. Your most important actions are likely to end up in bottom right rectangle.
Vital aspects for how to get things done – Review Phase (4)
This as penultimate phase reminds what you still have to do. Here you'll review what is in your Calendar (stuff that require necessary work) and as your further step, use the Next actions rectangle which will contain stuff which require attention as soon as possible. Weekly review will be used as in-depth review for all potential data that you will take action with, files stored in (In-Basket, Calendar, Next Actions, Project, Plans, Someday/maybe). This review is vital if you want to take control over you work. In other words, this means that you have control over your external memory and keeping the same updated. This GTD regular review is important if you want to develop sense of trust all over your system.
Getting things done Key Details – Do Phase (5)
Now that you have your To-Do list you may probably asking now what? Well here exist three models for you to decide what action to perform. I'll explain the action which require attention at the moment.
- Context: What can be done here and now? Because, you can't do same task when you are inside your office and when you have break time, what this context part wants is to limit your actions that actually want to be performed. If your "next actions" is with large number of tasks then what you have to do is classify them by context (office task, home task, etc.) and you'll be able accomplish them all.
- Time available: Do you have enough time to do them now? Duration of time for "next action" must be fitted with your available time. If you have limited time then work on your short tasks.
- Energy available: Energy level inside you have big importance, you should aim your choice of task to match your physical and mental energy. You should do your routine job and leave the difficult ones for later, when you feel you have enough energy to focus and perform with much success.
- Priority Level: Here you'll give your context appropriate level of priority, time and energy you possess at the moment about which actions should be done.
… you are not the only person looking for how to stop procrastinating. It is natural to delay things as there are assignments that you simply do not want to do and ones that are of great importance but you feel tense to do anything close to them. This here is pretty much what I've needed to quit procrastinating, this here will be pretty much what you'll need for getting things done when required.
Again thanks for your time reading this, if you have difficulties connect this writing with the picture above, feel free to relay on your own tactics for how to get organized and be more productive and working less. Do not procrastinate to share this as bookmark the same, it can be useful sometime from now, trust me.
This is the best and quickest way for how to get things done, so use it!

Great advice Goran! I don't think many people will procrastinate if their boss is always monitoring them or in a way that employers will know how their employees are working even if they're not in the office. I've read a couple of blogs talking about productivity and most people were promoting the use of some time monitoring software. Although, it is not really the perfect solution for this but a way to help employers and employees achieve a common goal which is to become productive at all times. Again, thanks for the advice Goran! Keep up the good work.

After a night downtown, you go to look for your car but can't find it. Was it stolen or are you just looking in the wrong place? It's a common question that's causing big problems for police, and they're now taking action.
"All the garages kind of look the same. Can't find your car, they think it's stolen, 'I definitely parked here,' report it stolen. Turns out, a couple of weeks later, we find it in another garage. It was never stolen," said Sgt. John Bourque with Metro Police.
On average, 38 percent of the time, the cars "stolen" downtown are actually just misplaced.
Police spend too much time trying to find lost cars when they could be focusing on real crimes.
Plus, police don't want people to be wandering around downtown late at night.
"It's easier to be a victim when you're off by yourself somewhere," Bourque said.
So police are taking action to now ask lot and garage owners to print their addresses on their tickets. They also want address signs.
"Say you got intoxicated, you decided to take a cab home because you're doing the right thing. The next day you wake up and go, 'OK, I know I didn't drive home. Where's my car?' Well, if you took a picture of the sign that shows the address of the parking lot or parking garage, then you would know where your car is," Bourque said.
It's not that police mind helping us out; they just want to keep people safe and be efficient about it.
Police say they are just now starting to contact the lot owners and hope to see changes very shortly.

"Gemstones have a beauty unlike anything else because they allow light inside and refract it," explains David Yurman. He is known for his use of brilliant colored gemstones in bold dimensions and unconventional combinations. "Mixing gemstones is a dynamic balance. The possibilities are infinite," Yurman notes.Highlighted in settings of unique artistry, they are infinitely beautiful.
Renaissance merges sculptural form with the brilliant jewel tones found in classical painting to produce a collection that is quintessential David Yurman. Artists of the Renaissance looked to the classics for inspiration and infused their work with innovative techniques and a new aesthetic sensibility. In 1983, David Yurman did the same with the development of cable. Cable exemplifies the designer's motto of "Continuing in the Classic Tradition" with references to ancient Greek and Roman, Egyptian and Celtic forms. Twisting multiple strands of hollow metal into a cohesive helix, cable is David Yurman's iconic design and signature motif.

Asia Cosplay Meet Philippines 2011
June 21, 2011 No comments
As part of the vast amount of events happened at ToyCon, the philippine leg of the Asia Cosplay Meet (ACM) competition was held on June 18 2011 on megatrade hall 3 of SM Megamall. Using the stage for the shooting of "Cosplay Nation" became one of the most talked about events, especially the groups involved and the time and effort that they took for the love of cosplay and to please the crowd.
Moments after shooting footage for its first day, the contest proper started. With six cosplay groups buying for the title and recognition for the country, the teams performed on stage. Some of them have backdrops while others used elaborate costumes and props for the crowd to enjoy. It was once of those moments where cosplay became real which we felt along.
Along with the performances was an interview with Jia Gold Bustamante, one of the winners from last years ACM. She explains about her experiences,preparations and the changes in her life after their group became the winner to represent the country for last years event. It was motivating and inspiring to all who witnessed it.
In the end it was a huge success. Congratulations to all the winners and participants. Good luck on representing the country and may god help you along the way.

|This leads to the right direction
Just a couple of hours before ToyCon, Ron managed to get inside SM Megamall to buy two day passes for the event. Only 1000 were produced but he managed to be one of the first 200 people to purchase one.
One of the most noticeable improvements around is the obvious ToyCon and Cosplay Nation tarpaulins posted at the main entrance and along the lanes of megatrade halls 1,2 and 3. Not to mention the staff and crew setting up the stage and for the exhibitors. He told us that there was a meeting, but sadly we can't tell you what it is but all we can say about it that there will be something huge tomorrow for us to enjoy.

"Cosplay Nation" live shooting at ToyCon 2011
June 15, 2011 No comments
(This is a repost. Check the full article via official ToyCon website here)
Collectibles Unlimited in partnership with MINDStyle, brings you the biggest Cosplay spectacle when COSPLAY NATION lands at the 10th Philippine TOYCON 2011.
COSPLAY NATION is a movie produced by Yian Studios, Beijing and internationally distributed by the China Film Group Corp, the largest and most influential state-run film enterprise in China. The movie, which features China celebrities Linda Le, Cheng Yi and our very own Alodia Gosiengfiao, will do its first leg of location shooting in the Philippines at the 10th Philippine TOYCON on June 18-19 at the SM Megatrade Hall 3.
Be a part of this landmark movie, the first ever to feature Cosplay as a cultural phenomenon! The best Cosplayers in the best pop-culture event in the country; the Philippines transforms into a COSPLAY NATION at the 10th Philippine TOYCON 2011!
A film that captures the essence of the phenomenon Cosplay craze and supported by a hot movie soundtrack.
COSPLAY NATION is as much a film about identity and about long-standing class and cultural differences. Set in China, COSPLAY NATION traces Sasa Li's struggle to attain a sense of self-worth in family of wealth and culturally conservative surroundings.
The film opens with the noise of Beijing's busy street and the camera focuses on Sasa exiting her daddy's Mercedes to the throbbing sounds of WU XING and the noise of traffic chime in Sasa struts down the streets of the shopping district. Raised by conservative, wealthy Chinese parents, and a revered older sister who seems to have the perfect life, Sasa spends all of her free time and money perfecting her image for appearances at Cosplay events, where she excels as a cosplayer.
Sasa's function in her circle of friends is neither a shy student nor a spoiled brat. Online and at cosplay events around China, Sasa commands ecstatic admiration from her peers and acts as a new type of youth in the face of traditional Chinese family conservatism. Her role-playing unites and lits the spirits of her alienated community of peers. The power of physical presence and prowess, combined with her confident "attitude" is graphically demonstrated in scenes where the crowd parts when Sasa enters in stage and her friends cheer as she dances her solos. The online media even begin to call her China's Lady Gaga.
The opposition between the non-ideological impact of the cosplay scene and the ideological power of the traditional wealthy Chinese family is underscored in the relationship between Sasa and her sister, Ah Mei. When Ah Mei announces that she no longer wants the lifestyle of just being a wealthy "stay at home mom" and socialite, the family is stunned by news that she will leave her marriage, Sasa's own faith in her talent as a cosplayer and her belief in the regenerative space of cosplaying grows. After meeting Alodia, a popular cosplayer and TV host from the Philippines who is enamored with traveling and in the process of refining her image, she begins to drift away from her group of friends, who presents the key to escape from her family and entry into the nation of cosplay, all over the world.

You'd be hard-pressed to say that the Ducks aren't a team with interesting things going on. Some are not by choice, like having to figure out what to do without their captain, Ryan Getzlaf, who took a puck to the forehead in Phoenix on December 28th and sustained sinus fractures.
The word on that at first was that the injury would be evaluated and that he would be out indefinitely. A couple of days later, the fractures were said to be "nondisplaced," and stable, and the club announced that he would not need surgery.
That was good news. The bad? That he would be out for four weeks to six. That would bring him back in late January at the earliest.
Other changes have occurred in the club's lineup with the continued influx of players from Montreal, so here's a quick rundown of the lineup as of now.
The club is now running a first line of Bobby Ryan, Corey Perry, and Matt Beleskey. Belesky appeared in his 20th game Sunday, where he has two goals and four assists.
The second line is the oldsters, Teemu Selanne, Jason Blake, and Saku Koivu. They have 74 points between them, with Blake the trailer at just 8-6-14. "One More Year" Selanne has 12-25-37, despite having played about 10 fewer games than his mates.
The third line has been augmented with the addition of Maxim Lapierre from Montreal. He slots in with Brandon McMillan and Joffrey Lupul.
The fourth line for the team is George Parros, Todd Marchant, and Dan Sexton. An odd trio that, with Sexton is a small but speedy, and you'd think he'd be wasted on this line. Sitting out with him in is Kyle Chipchura, also, Montreal fans will recall, gained from the Habs. He's a true grit guy, with 27 games logged for the year and two assists.
Surprisingly, or perhaps not if the speed of Sexton is any clue, that line played a great shift early in the first period against the Sharks, perhaps the team's best offensive shift in the period. They controlled the puck down low, passed it around, Parros dug it out from behind the net, and Sexton had a shot on goal.
With San Jose in town, the natural question being how important it was that they win against the Sharks? Very. Hard to exaggerate how much every game means right now. The club began the evening showing in sixth place in the West with 48 points coming into the night. The Sharks were just one point behind the Ducks in 10th. But every club from Minnesota in seventh back to San Jose had 47 points, so call it pretty much even.
Then there's the game-in-hand situation. The Ducks have played more games than almost everyone else in the league, and certainly in their conference. At times, the differential stretched to five games, but between Anaheim and most others, it has been three or four, to the Ducks' disadvantage. At this point, the Ducks have played 45 games (after Sunday) while the next closest team has participated in 44 contests (Chicago). The Sharks were playing in their 43rd game.
So two points, and to deny the Sharks one, was the goal, and the puck dropped in front of an almost full building augmented with a good number of people in teal sweaters.
The Ducks had a so-so first period, at least the five skaters. The goaltender, however, was a different story.
Halfway through the game, the Sharks outshot the Ducks, 20-11, but the game was scoreless, The Sharks were literally shaking their heads, as Jonas Hiller had turned them away cold. He faced 12 shots in the first period, to the Ducks' eight, but they were dangerous. Hiller was to stymie the likes of Dan Boyle, Ryane Clowe, and Logan Couture over and over again through the first two periods.
With about six minutes to go in the first, the Sharks pressed. There was a shot and rebound, but Hiller was way out of the net on the right side, challenging. Couture got the rebound, but the goalie again made a glove save. It was one of those that suggest that he had a force field up, and was unlikely to relinquish any ground without a struggle.
"There are moments when you feel how you feel [I felt] today, but that's normally the first couple of saves," Hiller said.
"After that, you bear down. So many things happen in 60 minutes, but you've got to stay focused. You can't say, 'Well, tonight's going to be a night when they don't score,' because then you start losing focus. I'm always just focusing on the next shot, and not looking too far ahead. I don't look up on the board until the end of the 60 or 65 minutes."
In the middle stanza, Couture had two great shots on one shift, then Boyle got one, all from Hiller's right side. After the play, Couture was bent double in disbelief. The shots at this point were nearly double in San Jose's favor, Anaheim eight, San Jose 15.
Right after that shift, both Couture and Clowe had chances, in close to the net. Patrick Marleau shot the boards down and took a high wrister to the long side. Hiller flashed the (righthand) catching glove and snatched it out of the air.
Then the Ducks pounced. Ryan held a puck from the left hashmarks all the way across the net to the right, and when he reached the right dot, or a place just below that, he fired a wrist shot that beat Antti Niemi.
The Ducks slowly started to even up the shot total after that, reaching to within a couple of the Sharks, but San Jose surged near the end of the period.
After two periods the Sharks had the advantage in shots, 27-20. In terms of chances, the game was all San Jose, and all Hiller. One dared not issue the "S&*%out" word for fear of jinxing the thing. But if you were a betting man, you'd say that the coach was probably getting a little bit anxious in the dressing room, urging his troops to stop playing with fire and take some of the play the other way, if for nothing else but to give their goaltender a rest.
"The games are emotional," Ducks coach Randy Carlyle said. "These games are hard-fought games. We showed a lot of compete and a lot of battle. There are a number of things we can improve on. I thought tonight specifically in the first period we were kind of staying on the outside. We had puck possession but we didn't attack the net with the puck. We didn't drive the puck to the net.
"In the second, we created opportunities."
Also of note was that the Ducks had killed two penalties by the time 40 mintes had run off the clock, both to offensive players, neither what you'd call "good."
They did it again in the first four minutes of the third when Lubomir Visnovsky went off for holding. The Sharks had four shots on the PP, two dangerous, but nothing went past Hiller.
After the game, I asked him whether there's a German-language equivalent for the Engish expression "standing on your head." He laughed, then paused. "Maybe Swiss?" I asked. The closest he could come up with was something like "playing out of your mind."
So what's the summation? Obviously, this team needs Getzlaf. But Ryan and Perry are holding it together pretty well with their third member. Lupul is largely invisible, maybe as a result of being on the third line, maybe because he hasn't yet found himself after his layoff.
"We maintained puck possession, not a lot of flurries except maybe in the last minute when Jonas threw it up and it hit the shaft of the guy's stick," Carlyle said about the final few minutes. "That was a little hairy there for a minute."
The Ducks have St. Louis on Wednesday, make a quick trip to Phoenix, then come back for Edmonton before going to the East coast for four games.

From hope to hopeless on budget talks
We have to determine where the market can find firm support on a definite lack of real negotiation.
It's going to get old real soon. That's how I am starting to feel about this Washington situation. If neither side is choosing to negotiate in earnest on the fiscal cliff issues, then the market will have to reach a level where everyone has figured out there will be no earnest negotiation, and they aren't selling regardless.
Last week seemed incredibly confusing. On the one hand, there was plenty of talk about how a deal could be reached. I keep thinking about that comment from Goldman Sachs (GS) CEO Lloyd Blankfein in particular -- the one that said the sides were real close. How could he say that if it weren't at all true? Wasn't it based on something? How about all of those CEOs? Don't they make any difference? We thought they did last week.
On the other hand we have the perception that, if Washington was near a deal, something critical broke down -- because the positions got further apart over the weekend.
What happened in those intervening days, when the business leaders were hopeful and when President Obama went to the Pennsylvania toy factory? Did Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner misjudge things and play too much hardball?
- Also see: 'Mad Money' recap: reasons to worry
I am thinking like this because it is highly unusual to see a situation go from hope to no hope in three days without anything really changing.
I have to tell you that, behind the scenes, the presidents' people are very certain that there will be a deal -- so certain that it's a bit daunting. Maybe that's what the business leaders were imbibing.
To me, the important thing is how quickly the complete transformation was made. This went from last Wednesday's happy belief that a deal will be struck, to a harder line by both sides Friday, to a total collapse by Monday. That last stage was on the heels of a Republican offer that someone would put out only if they wanted to end talks. Sure, I am certain some people thought Monday's Republican gambit had some substance, but to me it was more of the same.
Get that "total collapse" offer into the market. Figure out where there is no hope -- and then the market will have some firmer footing, which is certainly lacking right now.

Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner need to withhold payment of congressional salaries, health benefits, cafeteria eating credits, and all other perks congress receives to have congress get serious about the problems facing the nation. Payments should be resumed only AFTER a resolution is found for the fiscal cliff!!???
The members of the Congress have totally failed to represent the wishes of the American people long ago. They are nothing but a special interest group out to get all they can for themselves.
Without a major change in attitude - "WE THE PEOPLE" - should take our country back by removing every incumbent that is trying to regain their seat in the congress.
Does anyone recognize that the "fiscal cliff" represents $500B "savings" per year over 10 years.
This means we bring our deficit from (depending on which figure you believe) $1.35T to $850B per year? So in 10 years, even with this "unimaginable" cliff, we will still rack up $8T MORE debt.
I am sure they will compromise at some point. Obama's "plan" is to raise taxes $1.6T over 10 years. The GOP "plan" is to cut spending and raise revenue $2.2T over 10 years. Both plans lead to downgrades and default in 10 years.
Where is a "real" plan to balance the budget, ever?
I hope the Republicans stick to their guns - Detroit, as are other cities are broke, and have declared bankruptcy...what amazes me is the pushing forward of these entitlment programs that bring our ruin closer by the day. Stay the course conservatives - lets take the pain now. Oh and send out additional "flamers" for Greece and the European contintent to get their acts' together....what a joke!!
Romney was CORRECT!! Almost half of this great Nation are gold-bricks that want the checks to keep arriving in the mail. Good Lord - four more years; wonder if we will survive it.
Cramer is a liberal hack.....
Miracles start at home. First of all, Congress should not pass any laws that are not also applicable to them. Congress entitlements should be on the table too to reduce the deficit. To begin with, let's cut spending by removing some of their outrageous entitlements like full pension after only serving five years and their tax payer subsidized health insurance. They should all contribute to and get their pension from Social Security after the age of 65, like everybody else. As for Health care, they should all be placed under Obamacare.
So V.L. a business is not to even think about making money it should lose money as long as it doesn't hurt employees? If that is the mindset we are about to take on,Lord help us.Most of the small business owners I talk to are more worried about regulations,and the costs that go with them.Mortgages probably aren't going out like we would like because of stiffer rules-Remember Dodd-Frank we don't want to revisit the late 90's and early 2000's do we? Or would you relax them in an attempt to spur Housing.

SPOKANE--Much of the "Operation Red Light" investigation relied on information that came directly from the women accused of being prostitutes themselves.
It took more than 18 months of investigation to take the 8 massage parlors down and at least two confidential informants, who worked inside the parlors themselves.
Special agents with the Washington State Gambling Commission first launched their joint investigation with Northern Quest Casino. They went undercover, ordering women on the notorious site Backpage.com. When the girls were arrested, documents show they admitted coming to Northern Quest often to engage in sex for money.
It was testimony like this that also brought down the massage parlors many of the women admitted to working in.
Authorities say Chin Day managed the Oriental Spa on Francis, telling girls not to ask for money, but that they could accept tips in exchange for sex.
One woman said she'd worked as a prostitute for six years, making up to $800 a week. Another was told if she wanted to make the most money, she should have sex with clients without a condom. All of the women were told to dispose of used condoms off-site to limit their chances of getting caught.
Many of the women themselves did cooperate in this investigation, but the owners and operators are still awaiting trial on numerous criminal charges.
