- Great for grazingOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 9/28/2014Lots of imaginative plates to share and simple dishes are very well-prepared. Pork chop and butterscotch pot de creme are stand outs.Special Features:
- Delicious Food, Creative CocktailsKel18318Dined on 9/26/2014Wood & Vine was delicious! I will definitely be going back - I loved the creative small plates, the delicious, seasonal ingredients, and the beautiful plating. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable, amusing, and very helpful with selecting dishes. Everything we had was delicious: watermelon and beet salad, braised bacon (like pork belly), sea bass, albacore tartare, and the cocktails were creative twists on classics as well as some innovative, new flavor combinations. The list of bourbons, whiskeys, and scotches is impressive as well. We loved Wood & Vine and look forward to returning soon!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pre-theater diningfiddleaboutDined on 9/19/2014Perfect spot for drink and light eats before the curtain goes up. Small plates to share, priced well and the food was delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wish we lived closer!TntLAVIPDined on 9/18/2014We were looking for a place for dinner before heading over to the Pantages. This place was close and had really good reviews so we decided to give it a try - what a find! Sat in the back patio, which I have to agree is the place to sit. We had great service - no long waits for anything. For cocktails, I had to try the Magnolia (OMG) and my husband got the Black Manhattan, and we shared three plates: #1 Truffle Fries - four stars. These are not on the menu, but for an additional $2 the will make these for you. #2 Little Gem Salad - 2.5/3 stars. The blue cheese was a bit too strong (and I love blue cheese), and all the goodies were at the bottom of the bowl. #3 Chicken & Waffles - 5 stars!!! Will definitely go back!Special Features:
- Unique AtmosphereCCap59Dined on 9/18/2014The staff is super friendly. The food is meant to share which translates to a fun meal. I've always had a great experience here. Even fellow patrons enjoy talking during their dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great EveningFrancisccoDined on 9/10/2014Ate outside in the patio dwarfed by the local buildings. still feels intimate yet total LA. A whisky flight then watermelon beet salad made me enjoy a veiny cheese for the first time. The fish was great with some surprises in the dish. A delight.Special Features:
- Great Hollywood location.Glenda91367VIPDined on 9/7/2014We had a delicious dinner following a matinee in Hollywood. This restaurant is across the street from the Pantages. Very convenient! All dishes are designed for sharing. We enjoyed burrata with fresh peaches, with other dishes and had a lovely butterscotch pot de crème for dessert. Very tasty meal. We will be returning and recommend this dining spot for others.Special Features:
- So glad I got to try it!PhoodieVIPDined on 8/30/2014After a year of trying to make it to Wood & Vine, we finally met some friends there and really enjoyed the comfortable, cozy, intimate environment in the upstairs dining room. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The wait time for the food was quite long, but when it did arrive the wait was forgotten. Superb watermelon salad, truffle chips like I've never tasted before, melt-in-your-mouth scallops, and bacon n' grits that would make any mouth happy. Only one dish (cauliflower) didn't meet expectations being heavily over-salted, but the butterscotch dessert brought the meal to a noteworthy finish. We look forward to returning and sitting in the back courtyard area when they have the fireplace turned on!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Seriously a great time.OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/30/2014We reserved a tucked away table for dinner and drinks before a show at the Pantages. We got both a great meal and excellent drink recommendations. You can expect the two of us back very soon in the near future!Special Features:
- Average jointOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 8/22/2014Good place to grab a bite if you're visiting the Pantages or other places in that area, but don't expect much. The food is decent. The staff seems nice. Our waiter was not very knowledgeable or tactful with our dietary issues, but he feigned interest. It was a bit loud, so probably better for a younger crowd who likes that kind of vibe. There is a nice outdoor patio in back.Special Features:
- Great food, not great serviceamyjoy2001Dined on 8/10/2014We were 10 minutes late for our reservation and it seems like our table was given away. That's on us. But the hostess said it'd be just a few minutes and we should go have a drink at the bar. 10 minutes later, we were still trying to get the one bartender's attention. All their tasty cocktails are labor intensive, so the poor guy had no way of being able to handle a full bar. Nonetheless, it was a long wait to order, then a long wait to get our drinks. After 20 minutes at the bar, we went over to remind the hostess we were waiting and she acted like we just showed up. Our waitress was good, but disappeared after our meals were delivered and never came back. We had to have someone else bring us our check. Good food, disappointing service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect for pre-theatreLeeGDined on 8/8/2014Across the street from the Pantages and so a perfect place for that pre-show dinner. Interesting menu and reasonable wine list. Be sure to make a reservation and patio seating is very nice.Special Features:
- Gals night dinner and theatreLMSDesignDined on 8/8/2014Perfect setting for a beautiful al fresco California summer dining experience! Wonderful setting amazing food especially pork belly bacon. Literally left for Pantages 5 min before performance.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great ambience & foodgoodfoodgoodlifeDined on 8/7/2014We've now been to the restaurant twice, prior to a show at the Pantages. They are great about getting you in and out to get to your show on time. Starting with the drinks, they have a great speciality cocktail menu. I haven't had a bad drink there yet, although I've only stuck to whiskey drinks so can't speak to others. The food is fantastic. Really enjoy the peach & burrata salad. My only complaint is that the food is a tad on the expensive side. A $14 burger (not grass fed) without a side seems a bit much. Even if they lowered the price point by $2 I would feel a bit more comfortable then spending another $6 on fries.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 8/6/2014The service was not very good, the food was delicious but the scallop dish, however tasty, only had two scallops...which for $22 is inappropriate I think...Special Features:
- Great date night spot!DatenightfreakDined on 8/6/2014It's truly a well decorated gem. Food was sensational! The staff is really friendly and the drinks are unique.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent again!Shazzer48Dined on 8/2/2014We ate at Wood & Vine shortly after they opened and were impressed with the fantastic assortment of foods they were offering - something for all in our group. This time we brought some friends along with us and we are happy to say they were equally impressed with the restaurant - its food and service.Special Features:
- Pantages adjacentmdrivelDined on 8/1/2014This place is a small plates restaurant with a decent selection of options and right across the street from the Pantages. Quick service meant we got our food, paid the bill and were in our seats with plenty of time.
- Missing something....STONEHENDined on 7/31/2014It's a new restaurant, hopefully still getting the kinks out. The menu could be more expansive where entrees are concerned, though the offerings we tried (small plates) were quite tasty. The patio is nice but feels confining with very tall buildings an all sides....perhaps more strings of lights overhead or gauze "sails" to break the acres of vertical walls? As is usually the case, we were older than most of the other patrons, and we realize that the "kids" have different tastes these days. The location is great for shows at the Pantages and the people watching is fun.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Spot!downtownbehaviorDined on 7/29/2014Even though the area is super touristy, Wood + Vine delivered. Possibly the best scallops I've ever eaten and the butterscotch dessert was insane. Swing by, even if you're not in the area!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mixed feelings on servicelunchanddinnerDined on 7/27/2014The staff is very professional, and you can see work very hard. They seem to need more waiters - service was slow. Kitchen is also small so food comes out slowly.Special Features:
- Reservation Means NothingMcgreevesDined on 7/27/2014We had a confirmed reservation and arrived right on time, but we were told our table was not available yet out on the patio. We waited 15 minutes. Still no table. We were going to the theater and didn't want to be late so we finally agreed to be seated in an upstairs room. Hotter than hell! No air conditioning!! Sucked!!! Our Waiter explained that they had overbooked the reservations -- again. I don't know why we were chosen to be screwed. Just lucky I guess. Never going back.Special Features:
- Excellent ServiceFoodManDined on 7/22/2014The service at Wood & Vine was excellent, wait staff was attentive,great location,great food and great price. I plan to dine there again and will recommend this restaurant to colleagues,friends and family. The chicken and waffle had great flavor as did the fish.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food but slow serviceRochelleDined on 7/15/2014Took my Dad here before seeing a show at The Pantages. The food was incredibly tasty...once we got it. We ordered the pork chop, tri tip sandwich and the burrata and peaches. The pork chop was perfect and tasty and my non-foodie father loved the burrata. The problem was the tri tip sandwich. Despite being there only 30 minutes after the opened the ran out. And to top that off the didn't tell the waitress so twenty minutes later she has to come apologize. The burger we had instead was fantastic and the waitress kept us updated and comped part of our meal while we were waiting. Looking around I'm surprised she didn't appear more stressed as the food expediters attempted to deliver food to the wrong tables at least ten times that I noticed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent varied small platesLuvDiningOutVIPDined on 7/13/2014Very handsome decor and cool vibe; nice indoor space and terrific outdoor patio dining in back. Wood & Vine offers a relatively modest selection of eclectic small plates, but all of them are wonderful, creative, sensory adventures. Friendly, prompt service makes for an overall perfect dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- my experience at W & Vblueyes147Dined on 7/13/2014The location is great if you are going to the Pantages. That is about it. Some of the food was great, some was fair.Special Features:
- Great pre-Pantages dinnerJwd2Dined on 7/10/2014Midweek tickets for the Pantages Theater means that dinner can't be leisurely, can't be complicated, and the staff can't have an attitude. In the past we've tried to walk-in at Wood and Vine before a show, but never got a table in time. This time we booked on OpenTable just after boarding the light rail, and noted on the res that we had theater tickets. When we arrived our table was ready, the hostess recommended several dishes that would get us out in time, the waitstaff was attentive and gracious and timely, and the food was light and delicious. We even had time for dessert, the butterscotch pot du creme. The outdoor seating is in a skyscraper canyon, but we had no trouble talking to each other over dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Find for Pantages Goers2blorenaDined on 7/8/2014We really enjoyed the food, it was incredibly delicious, and "healthy". The choices were limited, but exquisite. The only downside is that it was definitely "a higher palate" cuisine. I was glad that we did not have picky eater among us, because their only choice would have been the fries. Because the selections were very limited, a no soy-vegan eater would also not have enough choices.Special Features:
- Cool venuecareyawayDined on 7/5/2014Across from the Pantages in Hollywood, this restaurant has a deck behind the bar area where they serve the tables. You look up at the sky and the various 10-ish story buildings surrounding you. Very metropolitan without car noise. The food is delicious and inventive. The service was great. Yes, we were there early after a Saturday matinee, but after reading all the poor service reviews, we were pleasantly surprised. I think they're working to change their reputation. Would definitely go again and take other foodies.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great location!!!SweeteaterDined on 6/29/2014This is a must if you are headed to theatre. Nice menu with unusual choices. I loved the shared plates that way I could try several different things!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- TheworkgroupDined on 6/29/2014Came after a great show at Pantages. Bar not so good. Didn't make a Mai Tai correct. Did not have malibu Rum but yet open bar. Made 3 drinks and all of them too much alcohol and no flavor. On the other hand the chef was fabulous. We got many different items to share and all were wonderful. Full of flavors.. great presentation. Wanted more.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- No fish?GlobetrottingwebbsDined on 6/22/2014We chose the restaurant for its proximity to Pantages. I am gluten and Dairy intolerant so it's not always fun eating out, however I do check menus prior to going to restaurants and there was fish on the menu. When we arrived they said the fish was gone. I asked if I could have another meat dish with some vegetables instead of spaetzle. They said it would 'ruin the integrity of the dish' - I buy that however the one thing on the menu I could eat was sold out so can you just make an exception? It's not great going out spending almost $100 and still feeling hungry. I won't be going again or recommending.Special Features:
- Cauliflower was yummycarlalouiseDined on 6/22/2014This visit, I enjoyed the cauliflower! It was great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OCVisitorDined on 6/17/2014Really enjoyed our dinner and the unique new menu.Special Features:
- Wood and Vine delivers again.BMSAVIPDined on 6/15/2014The most recent visit to Wood and Vine demonstrated again their flare for combining flavors. I dined with a party of 5 and we sampled many of their plates and all were hits. Of special note were the lamb and cauliflower. Great food, nice presentation and perfect proportions. The only slight negative is that they seemed to be short on wait staff. It was the pre-theatre crowd and many patrons were antsy about receiving their checks.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OK for pre-theaterJJayDined on 6/13/2014Although the service was very good, the menu is lacking. It's too broad so that nothing can be refined. It seems to be trying very hard to be exotic yet at the same time basic (e.g. chicken and waffles) The short ribs on coucous looked good, but were very greasy tasting. So rich that it killed my appetite. While it has a nice atmosphere, if this restaurant weren't across the street from the Pantages, I don't think it could stay in business. The inside is very different from the outdoor patio. Outside the feeling is cozy and nice; inside its dark and noisy. Definately plan to sit outside.Special Features:
- Nice ambience and hit or miss foodPigmonkeyDined on 6/11/2014The out door patio is very pretty and lends itself to a leisurely meal. The food itself was hit or miss. We started with the flatbread and pork rillette, which were both quite good. The flatbread was crisp and flavorful and the rillette was smooth and creamy. We then ordered the meatball, which seemed undercooked and bland. Next was the fried chicken and waffle, which I felt was underwhelming- bland with the maple syrup overpowering all other flavors. I had a Manhattan which was pleasant, though nothing out of the ordinary and my companion had the Penicillin which smelled as you would expect, but was actually quite tasty. Service was attentive and knowledgable, but overall, due to the hit or miss quality of the food I doubt I'd go back.Special Features:
- Decent if you're going to PantagesOpenTable Diner Since 2004VIPDined on 6/8/2014This is a great space but the food is average and the service is terrible. The hostess was very pleasant. Great patio out back. Didn't try the bar but it was slow on a Sun nightSpecial Features:
- Restaraunt for PantagesOpenTable Diner Since 2004VIPDined on 6/7/2014This place is right across the street from Pantages, so they've got no real incentive to do great things. Food and cocktails were middling but priced accordingly. Service was great and the space they have is quite awesome. Meal pace was too fast. Perhaps if I were to be attending the Pantages I'd come back, but otherwise not.Special Features:
- Not GoodpaulDined on 6/4/2014Food was not good, service was not good, seats were very uncomfortable. Way too expensive for what we got.

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) -- New York Mets ace Johan Santana was taking a quick rest in the dugout when he heard a female fan say, "It's good to have you back."
"It's good to be back," the two-time Cy Young Award winner replied.
It certainly appears Santana is close to full strength again.
The left-hander, who missed all of last season while recovering from shoulder surgery, faced hitters Thursday for the first time since tossing four innings in an Instructional League game Sept. 30.
Everything went well, and the next step for Santana will be his first Grapefruit League outing. He is scheduled to start a split-squad game against the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday. He will throw two innings or 40 pitches, whichever comes first.

Valve Pays Out Over $200,000 to TF2 Item Contributers After Two WeeksWith the launch of Team Fortress 2's Mann-Conomy, which brought paid items to the game, Valve also allowed users to submit and sell their own created items.
"At a time when content creators are struggling with changing markets and evolving technologies, the Steam community is sending a clear message with these checks," said Valve president Gabe Newell. "Platforms that enable this kind of peer-to-peer exchange of virtual goods and services are going to be enthusiastically received. They create an inherently greater efficiency in connecting creators and consumers."
The peer-to-peer marketplace is now a part of Steamworks, which will allow third-party developers that choose to use Valve's suite of tools and services access to run player stores directly through Steam. Additional Steamworks improvements are on the way from Valve through its recently announced Dota 2 project.
Information on how you can contribute to Team Fotress 2's Mann-Co store can be found here. Contributions are limited to the actual model, while the TF2 development team will handle incorporating and balancing any non-cosmetic items like weapons.

Yankees General Manager Brian Cashman and Red Sox Manager Bobby Valentine are taking a test run of the 22-story building they'll be rappelling for charity on Sunday.
It wasn't clear which of the brave men had taken a turn Friday morning as SkyFoxHD was overhead the Landmark building in Stamford.
"I don't look down. I'm less scared of it than I was the first year," Cashman told Good Day New York a few weeks earlier.
The event is a fundraiser for various charities including superstorm Sandy relief efforts.
This is the third time Cashman rappells the building; it will be a first for Valentine who hails from Stamford.

The community thinks...
Jetta is just another name for wind by 88ina60zone on 04/09/2012. Trim: 2012 Volkswagen Jetta SE w/Convenience.
Pros: Fairlly good steering, cheesy leatherette looks leather. This was on the SE, the S model engine is such an old design.
Cons: The 5 cylinder has a huge flat spot in its acceleration that feels like the engine takes a moment to figure out what just hit it. The diesel needs fuel filter change every 20000 miles for $113 each time, the auto transmission needs fluid//filter every 40000 miles for about $500 each time, at 120000 miles you have to replace the timing belt/water pump for about $1500. Diesel costs about 30 cents or more a gallon. So it'll be awhile before that diesel TDI catches up with the gas version for cost savings. Did I mention that leatherette imitation leather. Lots of synthetics are used so you cannot usually find oil or coolant or other supplies without heading for the dealership.
Overall review: Nice driving, lots of repair concerns. Hit and miss kind of car experience. Literally in an accident if the air bags go off it unllocks the doors, starts the 4 way emergency flashers and begins sounding the horn to alert eternity that you may be on your way. The keys are all a reverse laser cut so you have to get them directly from the dealership and it isn't cheap. Recommend it for someone who you don't really like.

On a cold January evening in 2010, twenty-six year old Gerald Veneziano got in his car at home in Clifton, NJ heading for his night shift with the Fairfield Police Department. He noticed a car pull in behind him and follow his vehicle for over 15 minutes. He called into the station to have the car pulled over but no one was in proximity so in an empty parking lot, the brave man identified himself as a police officer to his follower. Before he could react, the suspect pulled out a handgun and began to fire. Taking bullets Veneziano exited his car to seek cover. Three shots ripped into his leg crushing his femur and tearing a major artery wide open. Another shattered his jaw and broke off several teeth leaving him unable to speak. He somehow managed to return fire but multiple gunshots later, Veneziano lay alone in the abandoned parking lot bleeding out from the torn artery in his leg.
His car had rolled away in the fire fight forcing him to seek help despite his horrific injuries. He managed to drag himself 40 yards to the street where a bystander called 911. He was airlifted to the hosptial where his his life was saved and a drug-induced coma was necessary to let his injuries heal. A year and a half later, with five major surgeries and months of rehab behind him he just recently returned to active duty. The man accused of shooting him was apprehended a month and a half after the incident later in an unrelated incident involving what is reported to the the same handgun used in Veneziano's case and now sits in a mental hospital awaiting a trial. To date, he's never admitted committing the crime or given a reason.
For Veneziano, the damage is lasting. He will always have nerve damage and he has a rod in his femur to hold it together and screws and a plate in his jaw. Doctors said he lost so much blood that he should't be here. In fact, the cold temperatures may have helped save his life. Doctors speculate that the 15 degree weather slowed blood loss possibly preventing his death.
Overcoming obstacles has been the theme of Veneziano's life for a year and a half. He knows what hard work can accomplish alongside the support and encouragement of family and friends. He wants others to know what that feels like. On September 24th and 25th The Spartan Race will head to Staten Island for an eight mile obstacle race of running, jumping, climbing and crawling, and Veneziano will be in the audience. Unable to participate in this year's event he looks forward to future races.
He says, "I wish I could do it! It sounds like fun – especially if people from work do it together and build comraderie."
A special Law Enforcement Challenge has been added to the Staten Island race to which Spartan Race will be donating funds on participating Law Enforcement team's behalf. Veneziano is encouraging his co-workers to get signed up for the challenging race saying, "You'd be surprised what your body can do. When I got shot I had to crawl to the road with a broken leg. As far as long term, I keep working at it. That kind of hard work will get you far."
Overcoming obstacles, finding out what's possible… That's true Spartan spirit.

This Gaming Stock Looks Like Chaff for Now, but Will it Become the Wheat?
Harsh is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
I have been quite bullish about the prospects of Chinese online gaming company Perfect World (NASDAQ: PWRD). However, it seems that the company is not able to tap the huge opportunity presented by online gaming in China, a fact that can be seen quite clearly in its quarterly reports.
After a strong start to the year, Perfect World's earnings have been going down for a number of reasons. The company doesn't seem to have a strong and addictive game in its portfolio so far, and lack of new titles has also made things worse. In addition, stiff competition from the likes of Giant Interactive (NYSE: GA), Shanda Games and NetEase (NASDAQ: NTES) is also making things difficult for Perfect World.
The Decline Continues
In its recently-reported third-quarter, Perfect World's average concurrent users (ACU) declined once again. And this time, the drop was quite steep, as ACU crashed 27% from the same period a year ago. While the company's anti-cheating efforts are indeed filtering out the cheaters and leading to a decline in the number of users, such a major drop in the ACU metric is a big red flag.
As a result, Perfect World's top line decreased slightly from last year, coming in at $110.7 million. Throw in increased expenses, and you get earnings that were nowhere near last year's levels. In comparison, peer Giant Interactive, one of the best performing online gaming companies, had posted a solid revenue jump of 19% last week, along with a 20% growth in non-GAAP net income.
But now the question is can Perfect World turn things around and benefit from the growth of online gaming in China? Honestly, the company can do better in the future, as it is looking to release new titles, expansion packs and expand its global footprint. However, there are a lot of challenges. But first we would take a look at the probable catalysts for Perfect World.
A Few Catalysts
Perfect World launched Torchlight 2 and Return of the Condor Heroes last quarter, and expects these games to push up its revenue to some extent. Also, Perfect World has a number of games under development, and they should help further improve its top line in the future. Swordsman Online, Saint Seiya Online and Legend of the Condor Heroes are the games from which Perfect World expects maximum returns, but only time will tell if these can turn the company's fortunes around.
Moreover, Perfect World is looking at global markets to mitigate its weakness in China. It has pinned a lot of hope on Neverwinter, which is a "highly-anticipated MMORPG" according to the company and might turn out to be a success. The game, which is being developed by Cryptic Studios, will be first released in North America in order to improve the company's position in the continent. Also, Perfect World is expanding its network through licensing deals in countries such as the U.S., Japan, Turkey and Indonesia among others.
Perfect World also landed the rights for operating Dota 2 in China. Dota 2, which is developed by Valve, is a very popular game which had won IGN's People's Choice Award after its first showing. Thus, this game should help Perfect World get back some subscribers in the future.
A Stiffly Competitive Market
However, Perfect World's declining user count in China is cause for concern, as performance in this country will determine the stock's direction in the long run. The Chinese online gaming market is very lucrative, and is dominated by the likes of Tencent and NetEase.
Tencent is the biggest player in the gaming market, and its game, CrossFire, is the most popular online game in China. Tencent also operates Activision Blizzard's (NASDAQ: ATVI) Call of Duty in China, which will undoubtedly provide stiff competition to Perfect World's games. Throw in NetEase, which operates Activision's World of Warcraft in the Middle Kingdom, and the space becomes even more tight.
Activision recently released Mists of Pandaria, the next expansion pack to the popular WoW, and the game is already winning over subscribers. Also, the emergence of Giant Interactive with its popular ZT Online game is another big threat for Perfect World.
The Takeaway
There's huge opportunity in online gaming in China, but the players are more or less settled and Perfect World is trying to move up the ranks. Perfect World expects its revenue to decrease again in the ongoing quarter, and this isn't good news. Also, even though the company is diversifying internationally, its decline in the Chinese market might have something to do with it.
There's a big question mark on how its games are going to perform in the future, as there are other more famous games from companies who are either well settled or growing rapidly. In such circumstances, it would be best to watch Perfect World from the sidelines and wait until the company attracts users back into its fold.

I hate heels and pantyhose, but if I'm in an office job where I need to wear said things, I'ma fucking wear them and devote my attention to other areas, where I won't go mad. I'm going to lobby for reproductive rights as much as I can, while still waxing my eyebrows and wearing make-up. Its about the battles you pick, not about ideological purity. It doesn't make you any less of a feminist for supporting a patriarchal institution.
The personal is political, but you know what? Its also not. That's a recipe for going mad; expecting everyone to live like that. You can willingly engage in the system and still retain your integrity, because you are just one person, and what can you really fucking do?
The analogy I always think of is the debate that black woman have over "going natural". Yeah, the enormous pressure to get straight hair is political; no doubt about it. The dominance of straight hair as the beauty standard is a product of our racist society, and it is a fucking crime that curly, kinky natural black hair is seen as "unprofessional" and "wild".
Do you blame individual black women who still choose to straighten their hair? Of course you fucking don't. That's ignorant and rude in the extreme. You don't know what went into that decision. You respect their personal choice and you keep your mouth shut — but that can't extend to being willfully ignorant of the political dynamic how this particular beauty standard evolved.
Criticize the institution, not the individual.

First of all, "depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and violence" are not "the negative effects of gender." They are the negative effects of the Patriarchy, and conformity thereto. That's not a matter of semantics; that's the whole fucking point.
It isn't being male, nor being a man, that is a problem, but believing that to be male, or to be a man, is to have to project a very specific and rigid definition of masculinity—which defines itself in contradistinction to the feminine, thus forcing men to conceal and deny any part of themselves that anyone could call feminine; which limits men's emotional spectrum to anger; which forces men to exist in a permanent state of insecurity, constantly monitoring the boundaries of their masculinity and engaging in displays of bravado to prove their self-worth; which considers sheer brawn and physical toughness the only acceptable kind of strength, while the kind of strength which informs one's character, what might be described as emotional strength, the kind of strength that means walking away from a fight, or being patient, or showing empathy, isn't allowed to play much of a role at all in the definition of masculinity—which leaves men, whose physical attributes of masculine strength will wane with time and age, keenly aware that their masculinity is ever threatened by their own mortality, because they haven't been encouraged to cultivate a compassion and resiliency that can't be measured in kilos or KOs.
That's not about being a man. That's about being a man in a Patriarchy, who's never been offered an alternative paradigm.

And you thought gender binary wasn't as harmful as we made it sound.
I feel like screaming.
Shit. The child is six. And the child got stabbed in the neck for not conforming to cultural norms of masculinity. This is why the culture we have around sex and gender is poisonous. We construct masculinity as desirable and femininity as degrading. We construct the binary genders as absolute and opposite. We construct gender around the presence of certain symptoms that we have constructed into a concept called 'sex'. And we punish people for stepping outside these things, no matter how young. Last year a child of 16 months was killed because an adult felt that the child, assigned male, was behaving more like a girl. At these sorts of ages, in an ideal world, children should be able to allow their identities to develop without kyriarchy getting in the way.
Shut the fuck up, binarists. Cissexists. Heterosexists. Transhaters. Misogynists. Essentialists. Shut the fuck up, and realise that you and the children you are socialising into your violent kyriarchal world are hurting others and being hurt yourselves.

Being born a woman is an awful tragedy… Yes, my consuming desire to mingle with road crews, sailors and soldiers, bar room regulars - to be a part of a scene, anonymous, listening, recording - all is spoiled by the fact that I am a girl, a female always in danger of assault and battery. My consuming interest in men and their lives is often misconstrued as a desire to seduce them, or as an invitation to intimacy. Yet, God, I want to talk to everybody I can as deeply as I can. I want to be able to sleep in an open field, to travel west, to walk freely at night…

And let's be honest: Isn't there some inherent sexism in focusing on the weight of a woman who is making a living because of her singing and songwriting skills? Does every Jack Black interview have to include "relevant" information about his weight? Seth Rogen became a star without a svelte physique. No one cared if we posted about those guys without mentioning their weight, but women must be small and tiny and delicate and therefore feminine, right? And let's not pretend this is a health issue: We see images of stars smoking and drinking and frighteningly thin, and never get emails about how we're "promoting" those unhealthy lifestyles.

As a M-day service member of the Army National Guard, the regulation that governs taking maternity leave is AR 135-91 which only authorizes 6 weeks (i.e. one excused drill month). This policy is inconsistant with active duty policy (60 day convalescent leave plus up to 30 days of accrued leave) and the FMLA. Is there any mandate or special rules that offer M-Day service members the same protection as offered by the FMLA. In my particular situation, I was protected by FMLA in my civilian job. The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) allows Soldiers who were deployed/mobilized to accure time towards FMLA eligibility while on active duty; however, there is no reciprocal policy (to my knowledge) that allows National Guard soldiers to eligible to be excused from drill beyond the 6 weeks of medical "leave". This became an issue for me as I requested to be excused from drill for 3 months after having a baby and declined command to do so as my commander was mobilized (voluntarily) right after I gave birth. Unfortunately, no acting commander was appointed so I unofficially fulfilled these duties for 3 months. Early on, I was asked to sign a letter of declination which I did. The letter of declination incorporated a clause stating that my declination would not prevent me from being considered for future commands. However, no one was ever appointed so I continued to unofficially command the unit. At the end of the 2 months, I decided I was ready to assume command as I returned to work and my child was no longer newborn. I didn't think there would be an issue since no one had been appointed, but apparently, the TAG (who became my direct supervisor upon mobilization of my commander) had been offended that I initially declined so he opted to appoint my subordinate over me and removed me from the unit--4 weeks after I reasserted my request to be considered for command. My subordinate's appointment orders were backdated so that it appears as if he was commander during the 3 months that I commanded the unit. Since I have a very specific MOS (warrant officer), there's no position in the Guard that I could be assigned. Subsequently, after 6 months of attempting to resolve this with the chain of command, I felt I had to transfer into the IRR versus spending the rest of my military career without a position or duty title. Of course, my decision was aided by hearing the TAG stated during an WOPD that if you turn down a invitation for a position, there is no place for you in his Guard. My questions: Is it legal/ethical for the TAG to backdate appointment orders as I described? Is there any recourse that I can pursue as I feel that I was discriminated against because I requested 3 months of maternity leave/excused absence from drill (which my former commander approved and which I never received)? It troubles me that National Guard soldiers are not afforded the ability to qualify for more protection (or maternity leave) that all other federal employees and active duty soldiers have.

A 12-year-old girl and an 8-year-old boy were stabbed multiple times in the attack.
Authorities in Eastern Oregon say a 14-year-old boy from the Baker City area has shot and killed two men at a deer hunting camp in the Blue Mountains.
The Grant County sheriff's office says the teenager fled after the shooting but was captured after he apparently accidentally shot himself in the leg and returned to the group's cabin.
Deputies were sent to the location shortly after midnight Wednesday.
The victims were not immediately identified, nor was the teenager.
Sheriff Glenn Palmer issued a statement Thursday about the killings but wouldn't describe a motive or the relationship between the teenager and the adults.
The cabin is near Granite in the mountains west of Baker City.

You don't have any idea how Meyer influenced Hernandez and neither do I. Your argument is exactly what I'm talking about when I call this thread disgusting. You posit an argument that you can't support and then use that imaginary argument to make a quantum logical leap that Meyer is complicit in a murder.

|This whole thread is repulsive
So I apologize for directing this solely at you. I dislike Meyer as much as the next guy and am glad he's not our coach, but any implication that he shoulders even the slightest responsibility for the alleged actions of Hernandez is absurd. The fact that people here are reveling in the fact that they can throw this in the face of another fanbase is disgusting.

I've got a 2 year old and I will probably take her before she's ready to sit through a whole game. Even though she's not ready for the whole experience there will still be a lot of parts that she'll enjoy (snacks, the band, everyone singing the victors etc...) and it will be fun for me to share those moments even if she won't enjoy the whole experience. Of course, she won't care about the opponent, so I'll do this at an EMU game and not UTL, but I think that's the impetus for most dads with little kids.

We're obviously upset we're lost, and I personally think that there are a lot of us saying / complaing about ridiculous things in the wake of the lost, but that doesn't make us obsessed.
When Dantonio would rather see Michigan lose than the team he coaches go to the Rose Bowl, that is obsession (I realize not all State fans agreed with this, but then again, not all State fans are obsessed with Michigan, just most of them). Michigan cares about Michigan State because we just lost to them. We will continue to care because they are in our division, but there are very few people on this board who would root for State to lose even if it adversely affected where our team would play a bowl game.

I don't think anyone here thinks it wasn't dirty. The point is that at the end of the year, everyone has some dirty plays (including us) and that whining about it accomplishes nothing other than making us look like sore losers. Stop whining.

I never said that I thought Hoke was being dishonest (Although unless you have some insided information, I don't think there was enough data in the OP to claim with certainty that "what Hoke is doing is completely transparent and honest"), I was simply explaining why I was uneasy about this. More than likely you guys will be right and everything will work out OK. However, if something unfortunate were to happen and this kid had some sort of career ending inury, it's hard to see us still giving him an athletic scholarship next year.
Would he be elegible for a medical scholarship then?

Some highlights from the media's conference call with Mike Shanahan Friday:
- Keenan Robinson could be done for the season.
- Linebacker London Fletcher did not finish Thursday's game, so obviously his sprained left ankle was bothering him. Coach Mike Shanahan said he "didn't think there was a chance for him to play" against the Cowboys, coming off a short week. "I'm never counting him out again," he said. If Fletcher can't play (I'd be surprised by that) and Robinson is done, then the full-time duty falls on Lorenzo Alexander, who has played quite a bit for Fletcher as of late.
- Linebacker Perry Riley did not have any injuries, but Shanahan said he was "quite sore" during the week and not moving as well.

After several previous cruises our decision to try a brand new ship on its first western Caribbean trip proved a mistake. The ships and passenger numbers get ever larger but the ports and surprisingly the exit gangways are unchanged, so issues like marginal weather or inexperienced staff quickly leads to missed ports of call and very long lines.
The embarkation at Galveston was very good and efficient.
Despite the size of the ship the public areas feel no larger than on smaller ships and surprisingly not overcrowded unless a problem or popular activity occurs when lines quickly build and service level fall. Although new it feels no newer than a lot of 10 year old well maintained ships. The ships layout is typical of several carnival ships with a rather confusing promenade layout around levels 3-5 , I much prefer the interior mall style of the RCL ships. But in fairness the standard of meals on Carnival and this ship are to very good standard lots of variety and in my view better than RCL. We dined in the southern lights and the Maitre/d ( Ken) was excellent , helpful with great staff and entertainment on the main floor. However Ken was an exception and in general the attentiveness of the staff was fairly average reflecting the large impersonal nature of the ship. Popular shows will become full well before the starting times and I still do not understand why every cruise ship still push the very poor value art auctions.
The size of the ship became more of a major problem when it came to dock the ship in two new ports. There was a two hour delay and many circles before docking in Montego Bay (and a lot of stirred up sand), we missed Grand Caymen completely due to high winds although other Carnival ships were docked and 30min delay in Galveston due to Fog. The captain totally blamed everyone else (weather, port authorities etc), just wished he been more honest and admitted part of the problem was bringing such a large ship into those ports for the first time. The $14 refund for missing a port of call is a bit of a joke, especially when the new ship and itinerary was a major factor. Once docked in Montego Bay and Cozumel getting 4,000 passengers through one door with just two scanners was complete chaos with huge lines, and real safety risks.
Don't want to sound too negative though in fairness all carnival cruises are very good value for money, I got an balcony for the price I'd pay for a window on other cruise lines and the food is actually better than most other lines. The cabin unlike some other ships was very quiet and comfortable and you can easily relax on your balcony.
I will use Carnival again but will stick to a smaller ship with proven performance. The Magic isn't magical yet but if the management team works hard they may be able to turn things around.

Pallotti junior heavyweight Antonio Santoro picked up the nickname "Goose" because of his resemblance to former Baltimore Ravens defensive lineman Tony Siragusa.
Santoro also has Siragusa's dry whit and winning personality.
"He is a kid you always want to see," first-year Pallotti coach Andrew Lacroix said. "He has such a positive attitude and he keeps the mood lighthearted. He is very funny. He likes to crack jokes."
On the mat, Santoro shows nothing but seriousness and intensity.
And his career is just starting to take off.
Santoro won the Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association wrestling tournament title at 285 pounds on Feb. 9 at Mount St. Joseph in Baltimore, beating the host's Shane Lowman, 3-2, in triple overtime.
"I haven't stopped smiling since I won," said Santoro, who also captured the Lackey Wrestling Tournament title in mid-December. "It was a pretty big win and I feel it's a stepping stone."
Santoro, who boasts a 47-9 record, hopes it leads to a top finish at the Maryland Independent Schools State Tournament at McDonogh School in Owings Mills on Feb. 15 and 16.
He's also eyeing a strong effort at National Preps at Lehigh University on Feb. 23.
"I think he can place pretty high at both," Lacroix said. "At the state tournament, he will see a lot of the same guys. He is looking to make the finals at national preps. There, there are two nationally-ranked guys. Outside of that, it's anybody's game."
The top-seeded Santoro looked awfully strong at the MIAAs.
He pinned St. Paul's Garrett Mullin in 1:43 in the quarterfinals, then decked Archbishop Spalding's Melvin Gowl in 3:14 in the semifinals.
"He is extremely difficult to score on," Lacroix said of Santoro. "No one has held him down this entire year. He has a really high motor and he doesn't get tired."
Of course, the final against the junior and second-seeded Lowman (40-11) was much tougher.
The pair spent most of regulation locking heads as Lowman matched Santoro's escape with one of his own to start the third period.
In the first overtime period, Lowman earned another escape with 26 seconds left in the 30-second period to take a 2-1 lead.
In the second overtime, Lowman was unable to prevent the Pallotti junior's escape with seven seconds left to force another overtime period.
Santoro won the toss, chose the bottom and wiggled free for the winning escape 10 seconds later.
It was the third time Santoro beat Lowman this season, scoring a 4-0 decision in the Lackey Tournament final and winning by technical fall in a dual-meet.
"I am doing things that I have never done before," Santoro said. "It's giving me a massive amount of confidence. During the tournament, I know I was the first seed, but I had a feeling that I wasn't going to win it."

This sushi craze will end. I mean, there will come a day when we suddenly wake up and each shout "Holy crap, I've been eating raw dead sea-things wrapped in stinky seaweed!" But until that day, we have Thai Taste. Let's forgo the other items and just talk about the sushi. That's why people come here. This unpretentious little place has a twosome of sushi chefs fixing big long plates of stuffed rolls nonstop. Eel, octopus, tuna, saba: I'm betting if you can find it in an ocean, they've put it inside sticky rice. They have more than 50 rolls on the sushi menu, including a half dozen vegetarian options. Thai Taste combines the Japanese sushi tradition of a lot of selection with the American tradition of a lot period. So what about the Thai? That's just an excuse for a name. In addition to a solid selection of Japanese dishes, you'll find Chinese, Vietnamese, and Asian curries along with Thai specialties. The pad Thai didn't wow me, but that's not why people pack into this place (see big plates of sushi). And unlike the Japanese serving tradition of bowing with respect to the chefs for their beautiful presentation, the plates barely hit the table before the myriad of rolls vanishes. The interior of Thai Taste is not at all trendy, but it's kind of nice that they don't try to make it look like the set of The Last Emperor. Expect more bustle than ambiance, and a plate full of tasty rolls that makes you forget it's just raw dead fish.

A San Tan Valley man was sentenced to five consecutive life sentences for charges ranging from child molestation, sexual conduct with a minor and exploitation of a minor.
Back on March 5, 2012, the Pinal County Sheriff's office was contacted about a female child who had been inappropriately touched.
In an interview, the girl disclosed several years of sexual abuse that had been committed by 37-year-old Job Anthony Sanchez, according to PCSO.
On March 21, deputies with conducted a search warrant on Sanchez's home and found numerous items, including video tapes and digital media of Sanchez abusing and molesting the child.
He was arrested and booked into the Pinal County Adult Detention Center and held on a no bond status. A few days later, a grand jury returned an 18 count indictment on Sanchez, all of which were dangerous crimes against children because the victim was under the age of 12.
On January 18, after a trial, Sanchez was convicted on all counts. He was later sentenced to five consecutive life sentences with an additional 181 year sentence for the crimes he committed. Sanchez has no possibility of parole.
Sheriff Paul Babeu stated, "Mr. Sanchez used his relationship with the victim's family and betrayed that trust and forcibly sexually assaulted this young female victim. The overwhelming majority of child sexual abuse victims are abused by someone they know and trust, a person most parents would never suspect. It is important adults with children encourage their children to know they can talk with them about anything. If you suspect a child has been sexually abused, report it immediately to law enforcement."

Hatchville Man Hopes to Keep Regal Nickelodeon Cinemas in Town
By: Brent Runyon
Published: 01/06/12
The Regal Nickelodeon Cinemas on Route 151 has been for sale with the restriction that the buyer cannot continue to use it as a movie theater, but that restriction has now been revised. Listing broker James Vaccaro said Regal changed the no movie theater restriction two weeks ago and will now allow a buyer to show art films.
"It's possible that it could be used for art films, but not for commercial Hollywood-type blockbuster films," he said.
The change is good news for John M. Tudor of Coonamessett Circle, Hatchville. Mr. Tudor, a retired physician, is hoping to keep the Nickelodeon an art house cinema and is leading a grassroots effort to keep documentaries, foreign and independent films on the big screen.
The Nickelodeon has shown foreign films, documentaries, and independent films since it opened in 1974.
Dr. Tudor said he would prefer that the Nickelodeon remain a movie theater under Regal. He will make a presentation to the Falmouth Economic Development Industrial Corporation on Tuesday at 9 AM at the Falmouth Chamber of Commerce on Academy Lane to seek support for that goal.
Another company or group taking over the Nickelodeon is "option number three or four," he said. He hopes Regal will continue running the theater, because the company is best qualified to run it well, he said. "But I'll do whichever option works," he said.
The theater provides Upper Cape residents with a chance to see movies that are not playing anywhere else nearby, he said.
"It's a unique resource for the community," he said.
Dr. Tudor said he sees films at the Nickelodeon about once a month, and is committed to keeping the theater open, but is not interested in taking it over himself. "I'm 'retired' retired," he said.
If the Nickelodeon is sold, Mr. Vaccaro said it could be converted to other commercial and business uses.
"It needs to be some kind of destination use," he said, since it is surrounded by conservation land with no other businesses within several miles.
In the past, there have been groups interested in purchasing the property as an ice arena, a water park, a church, a food service establishment, apartment houses, and an office complex.
"It's business zoned and there's three acres of land, but it's in a water recharge area so you can't store any chemicals or petroleum products there," he said. Any change of use would require a new special permit from the Falmouth Zoning Board of Appeals.
Did You Know?
The Nickelodeon theater opened in 1974 with one screen. The first movie shown there was the Charlie Chaplin classic "Gold Rush."
Only six people attended the theater's opening night which may have been a good thing as it was missing the beginning and final reels. Only the middle reels of the film were sent to the theater.
The three-acre property including the 9,600-square-foot building and parking is for sale for $600,000, down from $900,000 when it was first listed. The property is for sale "as-is, where-is" according to the listing.
Hutker Architects of Falmouth entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Regal to renovate the building into office space and construct a new multifamily residence, but terminated the agreement in December, Mr. Vaccaro said.
Regal bought the Nickelodeon in 2003 from the Hoyt Cinema Corporation, along with the Mashpee Commons and Cape Cod Mall Cinemas.
The theater chain has experienced a loss of business due to increasing competition from home video sales, on-demand movies through cable and satellite TV service providers, and streaming movies through services, such as Netflix.
The films currently playing at the Nickelodeon are "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo," "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy," "The Descendants," "Young Adult," "My Week With Marilyn," and "J. Edgar."
Attempts to contact Regal's corporate offices were unsuccessful.
Correction: January 13, 2012
This article has been revised, omitting incorrect information regarding the Regal Cinemas and the company's plans. The Knoxville, Tennessee, based company operates 527 theaters in 37 states and Washington D.C., and does not have plans to close 30 percent of those theaters as previously reported.
2 Responses to "Hatchville Man Hopes to Keep Regal Nickelodeon Cinemas in Town"
Do you know how I can get in contact with Dr. Tudor?
Let's support Mr. Tudor who is leading the efforts to "Keep the Nick" for Indie, Art, and Foreign films. Our community deserves a cultural arts place in addition to all the Blockbusters. Chatham recognizes the need and is doing something about it- we need to here in the Upper Cape area.

This conversation is closed.
I would like those who choose to participate, to wirte a New Constitution for the United States to address the current issues at hand.
The current issues today such as abortion, guns, marijuana, racism, voting, the inability for the three branches of government to work together is costing the US trillions of dollars in unnecessary spending. I would like your input on what you would do to change the Constitution.
I will go out there and say that the American Constitution is flawed and extremely outdated and fails to address many of the issues today.
With the left and the right at each others throats, where can we find the middle ground to resolve these disputes? Each one of you at TED.com do not have the financial influences seen by the politicos being put on you to impact change in your nation for the better.
I am going to ask that if someone does come up with a suggestion that you do not agree with , that you do not ridicule but instead engage in a sensible conversation offering counter-points to back up your claims. As I always tell people, the only stupid question is the one that is not asked. The same goes with ideas.

The TED device sends updates to PowerMeter every 10 minutes compared to buy tramadol pay cod regular smart meters which often only dispaly processed energy data only once a day.
People who already own a TED device can download an upgrade to start using the PowerMeter software.
This partnership is meeting a great need because it lets consumers review their electricity use in real-time, over their own broadband connection, allowing them to make changes to their current energy consumtption instead of making changes in hindsight. But the companies aren't looking to exclude power companies. TED and Google are both still working with utilities to build smart meter networks.

However, this new TED 5000 apparently can store a couple days worth of order cialis online not fake data (at 1-minute intervals; longer if the intervals are longer), which means as long as you turn on your computer once every couple days, you'll be able to download all your usage data. (I've emailed the dependablehealthcareservices.com company that makes TED 5000 to confirm this, so I'll post again if this is incorrect.)

commented on Is competitive Pokémon only for the hardcore?
this is a totally wrong article about pokemon. Pokémon is challenging and somewhat hard but actually its a fun and easy game to play, also it's not hard to level up your pokemon to the max. Plus it's easy to beat pokemon X and Y because they are doing a giveaway for a torchic with a blazikenite mega stone attached to it and trained to lvl 10 when gotten and with the ability speed boost, so everybody will be very strong in X and Y. If your playing a past game of pokemon like black and white 2, black and white, soulsilver and heart gold, etc. then you may have a little trouble getting through with those ones.

Dougherty County School officials say their outreach to Marine families is working.Representatives from all Dougherty County Schools attended a back to school forum at the Marine Corps Logistics Base in Albany last Thursday.The system has a new policy allowing base parents to choose which schools they want their children to attend. This comes after controversy over whether MCLB children would be allowed in Worth County Schools.The interim superintendent Dr. David C. Mosely says since that forum at least ten families have enrolled their kids in Dougherty County schools and he hopes that number will continue to grow."I'm hoping that we're going to get a lot of their youngsters, and I want them to be in a school that they are pleased with, and I think we can provide that," said Mosely.The first day of classes for Dougherty County Schools is August 5th.
