A word from Logan - An American Restaurant
LOGAN- An American Restaurant opened in November 2004, with a commitment to providing Ann Arbor a unique and truly sensational dining experience. We are a small, independently owned and operated business. As such, we feel we can be attentive to the small details that separate great restaurants from the rest. For example, Chef-Owner Thad Gillies and his staff prepare from scratch each day the culinary components that are the base of everything we do. When they combine these elements for your dining pleasure, they transcend the French cooking techniques used to create them, in fact, they also transcend the many culinary traditions our kitchen draws from to create our "New American Cuisine". Great food alone does not make a great dining experience, though; we feel that great wine, beer, and spirits are an essential part of that experience, as well. We are seek to offer you the very best of all of these we can obtain, always with a focus on excellent value.Continued

- best fine dining for any occasionBethVIPDined on 9/30/2014Our dinner visit was 6:30pm on a Tuesday evening. Reservations are a must, as the 7 and 7:30pm slots were full. Service is outstanding, full bar with mixologist, amazing wine list, but the food is an experience that demands your attention and leaves you looking forward to your next visit. Simply exceptional and has been consistently for 12 years.Special Features:
- Delicious anniversary dinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/27/2014Very good service, wonderful food and romantic atmosphere. Perfect date night.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent Dining ExperiencefinedinerDined on 9/26/2014An excellent restaurant to celebrate a special occasion.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Overdone lambPaigeReaderDined on 9/20/2014Very knowledgeable sommelier. Excellent crab-avocado starter. However, my sliced leg of lamb was over-cooked. I asked for medium rare, but the meat was gray. The server was apologetic and brought me another plate, but that overdone lamb never should have left the kitchen. There's no way whoever sliced it didn't see it was over-cooked, and even the server said he "wondered" about it when he put it on the table. (??) I was given a discount on my meal, which was very thoughtful. Ponzu cauliflower: disappointing -- soggy. Pear fritter: nothing special. The flavor of the diced pears in sauce was odd and detracted from the dish. Too much ponzu on menu. Should offer other salad dressing options. Too much fennel pollen on menu.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Reliably DelightfulGuest411Dined on 9/19/2014Logan is one of our "go-to" restaurants. We can always rely on the food and the service being top-notch and we especially love sitting at the bar, where we can interact with some of the staff. Mark and Kevin always make excellent recommendations! The decor is a bit blah and dated, but the food is consistently delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always wonderfulHungryGirlDined on 9/18/2014Great evening, as usual. I asked for a special table because of my husband's birthday and we were seated at the window. Excellent wine - and they helped us choose something to fit our tastes. Dinner was superb - creative, well seasoned, and delicious. The lamb was very tender. Ann Arbor is so fortunate to have Logan.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- One of Ann Arbor's Best RestaurantsBethDined on 9/12/2014Our party of six enjoyed a wonderful evening at Logan. The food was excellent, especially the duck breast special. The wait staff was friendly and attentive. We will definitely be returning the next time we're in town.Special Features:
- reliablerickVIPDined on 9/12/2014We had an excellent meal at Logan. The food was well prepared, (a great amuse bouche) the wine advice was excellent, the wine choices were very good-unusual and reasonably priced-and the service was attentive but not hovering. The menu does not change items very often so we space our return visits.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Slightly disappointingHappytodineDined on 9/6/2014Although the food was good, it was a bit on the pricey side. My glass of wine was quite expensive and a very small pour. A gentlemen, possibly the owner?, made his rounds to many of the tables servicing them, however, did not make it to our table to even ask how our meal was. Will we return? No sure.Special Features:
- Special Occasion venuewendellDined on 9/3/2014Oustanding wine list and scrumpcious scallop dinnerSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great place for something differentthomps97VIPDined on 8/29/2014Chefs use wonderful combinations of ingredients, and there is plenty of variety of menu items, from red meat to vegetarian. We had the tasting menu, and the chefs were able to adapt it for a gluten free diet. The wine pairings were interesting; reasonably valued, and gave us a chance to try things that we might not taste normally. Kevin, the sommelier, is enthusiastic and appears to love this sort of thing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect mealOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/28/2014Logan never disappoints, as usual it was my best meal in Ann Arbor. My wife had wild boar bolognese, which was delicious as usual. I had the shrimp, which included the best mole sauce I've ever had. Don't pass this place up, it is truly a special experience.Special Features:
- Ann Arbor hot spotCrossgrovesVIPDined on 8/26/2014Great menu and location but wine list overly pricey. Arrive early to find parking space in busy downtown area.Special Features:
- Awesome in Ann ArborSHUjavDined on 8/23/2014Logan was a perfect spot to go foodie in Ann Arbor. Must have tasting menu and go all in with the wine pairings. Those that eat at Logan will be champions.Special Features:
- ParkCityLocalVIPDined on 8/23/2014Simply the best chef in Ann Arbor! Reserve early since they are busy...the secret is out!Special Features:
- Best in MichiganBGoldDined on 8/23/2014I think this is now my favorite restaurant in Michigan. Have had 2 meals there, spaced about a year apart. I was thrilled by the first one and not at all disappointed by the second one. Ezquisite food in an understated, elegant setting.Special Features:
- Perfect 50th Anniverary CelebrationSLuckeyDined on 8/19/2014In looking for a special place to take my parents for their 50th wedding anniversary, I came across Logan - An American Restaurant. The menu looked unique and interesting, but what really caught my attention was the 5 course chef menu with the wine pairing. I thought this would be perfect for my parents, and was I right! Our table of four (my parents, my spouse and I), had an elegant, exciting, educational, and thoroughly enjoyable evening tasting delicious food with perfect wine pairings. My parents were delighted with their special night. Thank you Logan, for making my parent's celebration so special!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- excellent experiencejackDined on 8/15/2014Although Logan's has been in town for a while, this was our first visit...which engenders the question "what took you so long. The atmosphere is almost austere. The staff very professional and courteous. And the menu was full of great choices. Every course, for all 4 of us, was original and excellent. I thought the price, given the originality and quality of the food, was very fair and competitive with Ann Arbor's burgeoning restaurant scene. We will be back and not just for special occasions.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wow! Excellent Experience!Foodie2TimeDined on 8/14/2014I had never been to Logan before and decided to try it for a special occasion with my son. We both enjoy good food and wine, so we tried the Chef's special 5 course meal. Each course was paired with a wine of their choosing that complimented the food. The courses was thoughtfully prepared, elegantly presented and absolutely delicious! The wine selections were also superb. We would definitely go back!Special Features:
- Excellent as always!DaveDined on 8/14/2014We had 2 appetizers, the Ceviche and the Avocado-Crab with Ponzu sauce. Both were excellent. For entrees, a seared Mahi-Mahi dish and an off-menu special, Duck Breast with roasted radishes, were our choices. The flavors and platings were spectacular. Dessert was a Pear Fritter with vanilla bean ice cream, which we shared. In summary, our evening exceeded our high expectations!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A favoriteSrf41VIPDined on 8/13/2014Always a wonderful meal. Do try the Tasting Menu and Wine Pairing it is always a treat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DelishBobbiDined on 8/13/2014Wonderful New York strips...wine and beef reduction sauce. Potatoes, corn salad and Logan salad with fried garlic chips, all good.Special Features:
- Always greatOTuserVIPDined on 8/13/2014Logan is expensive, but the food is always superb and the wine list is excellent. Service is knowledgeable, and the atmosphere is quiet and elegant, good for conversation.Special Features:
- Off night?mikeyDined on 8/12/2014This was the 3rd time we have eaten at Logan. The first two, in 2013, were exceptionally good meals, and we were looking forward to the same. However, the only item we ordered that night that could be called "exceptional" was the rice pudding. Much of the food either lacked flavour, and/or seemed to be an experimental pairing of ingredients that did not go very well together. Drinks, service, and environment were all very good to excellent, but the food just wasn't up to par that night. Given the cost of eating at this restaurant, having average-tasting (or weird-flavoured) food is really not acceptable. Hope to return someday for another try, but we'll wait until the menu changes substantially.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ExperienceVIPDined on 8/9/2014over priced. There are other places in town with comparable food and wine or better that are less costly.
- Good Food/Fair ServiceOpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 8/7/2014I love the food at Logan. If you are a foodie and you enjoy tasting new/current trends this is the place for you. Chef Thad is very creative in the kitchen and is always coming up with new and unique dishes. I must recommend the salmon. It's one of the best I've ever had! The only issue I had on my most recent trip to Logan was the service. Usually I have a wonderful server who is very knowledgeable and caring. Unfortunately, my most recent visit was not the same. She was very lackluster and inattentive. It was like we were a bother to her and she really didn't pay much attention to us. We had to go to the extreme of flagging down another server just to get bread. I also wanted a refill on my wine, but she never asked. Boo!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful localOceanluDined on 8/6/2014My son and I who are avid cooks came here on a recommendation. We could not have been happier. Intricate, well thought out dishes beautifully cooked and presented. Staff had very good suggestions and great wine pairings.Special Features:
- Nothing special.FetaLovingGreekGuyDined on 8/2/2014This was the restaurant I was most looking forward to and most disappointed with during our trip to Ann Arbor. The fennel salad came warm as if sitting out and the garlic chips on the Logan salad tasted like burnt bitter kettle chips. The gnocchi were giant and very heavy. My partners stomach was upset after eating then. The pork tenderloin (best thing of the night) was cooked perfectly but then sliced making it dry by the time we received it. Service I guess you could call it that. Was good when our waitress was around but she kept disappearing for long periods of time.
- Tasty meal, nice service at LoganThanksDined on 8/1/2014We had dinner at Logan (for the first time) on a busy Friday night and it was a great experience. Menu was varied (lots of fish/seafood), but I hade the lamb and my husband had pasta. Both were delicious, filling, nicely presented, and graciously served. The drink selections and wine were great too. Nice spot for a "treat" or special occasionSpecial Features:
- AwesomeMyDearWesleyVIPDined on 7/29/2014We had a chance to go back to Logan for a small celebration. The food was great as expected. The short ribs and cheese grits were out of this world. Kevin, the sommelier, once again demonstrated his skill by bringing us a wine that went well with entrees including scallops and short ribs. Logan gets my vote as the best restaurant in Ann Arbor, and it is one of my favorites anywhere in the countrySpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Interesting dishesBellalunaDined on 7/29/2014First visit. Split pot stickers. A little crispy but very tasty. Nice sauce. I had the duck confit. Very tender and delicious. Loved the presentation and accompaniments. Hubby had the Thai scallops, house specialty. As everyone has said, they are beautiful and delicious with great sauce and best mashed potatoes we've ever tasted. We enjoyed meal and will return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Expereince!AwesomeBrunchBuffetDined on 7/26/2014Great date night restaurant, with great romantic ambiance.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food and serviceA2foodguyDined on 7/26/2014As usual great food and service. The southern fried grits appetizer and pork tenderloin entree were amazing. The fried perch entree was heavily breaded but still tasty.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Love Love Love LoganBethVIPDined on 7/25/2014Always excellent food, drink and service. Even with all the other restaurant options, Logan is still head and shoulders above the others in quality and service. Reservations are necessary, so book early as they book up.Special Features:
- Something specialKathyWDined on 7/24/2014We had a wonderful dining experience at Logan! Managed to get a table by the window - which we loved! The food and drinks were superb. Next time, we'd like to try to the Chef's special 5 course meal.Special Features:
- Still ImpressiveGR8FoodDined on 7/12/2014This is our second visit to Logan to celebrate a birthday. Food very distinctive as well as tasty. Noticed this time that the space was a bit tight for my taste, but understandable given the space limitations in downtown Ann Arbor.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- incredibleOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 7/12/2014The food and service were impeccable. The sommelier's expertise took the meal to another level. It was really fun to tell him what we were having and to let him surprise us!! He was spot on every time, and we learned new things as well. Wonderful time!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always wonderfulOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 7/10/2014We had another great evening at Logan. Kevin introduced us to an amazing wine from Sicily and the food, as always, was delightful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- LoganTheBigCDined on 7/10/2014Great service topped only by the food. Meal was very nicely paced even though we were there early prior to a cowd and could easily have been raced through a meal. Not the case at all. Interesting menu. Solid wine selection. Gourmet but unpretentious. Loved ever minute we were there.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Sure BetLuckyGirl55Dined on 7/10/2014When coming up to Ann Arbor for a concert, it is hard for my husband and me to choose a restaurant other than Logan ... even though there are so many enjoyable restaurants in AA. Every visit to the Logan -- now numbering 6 or so -- has been an absolute delight. Food ... service ... wine guidance -- all superb. We especially like turning friends on to this wonderful restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

KABUL (WKZO) -- Reports out of Afghanistan say a National Airlines cargo plane crashed at Bagram Air Field north of the Capital of Kabul, killing all 7 crew members on board.
Five of them are said to be from Michigan.
Coalition spokesman Capt. Luca Carniel said the 747-B crashed right after takeoff. It had been headed to Dubai.
The Taliban quickly claimed responsibility for causing the crash, which was denied by U.S. authorities, who say there was no military activity in the area at the time.

Fun with facts and figures from the World Cup
If in doubt ask President Barack Obama who has waxed eloquent about how Americans have to beat us in numbers and their crunching if they hope to get back the jobs that get routinely off-shored to India.
More than digging out interesting facts and figures, this exercise of taking a peek into the past from a numbers perspective, is meant to throw up several interesting aspects of a cricketer's career in the one and only tournament that has mattered to teams ever since it began more than a quarter of a century ago.
For example, every self-respecting Indian would be able to accurately mention the name of the top run getter in World Cups. Some of us may even know the batsman who is second on the list behind Sachin Tendulkar. But, it may be difficult to recall the player who is third on this list, more so if one were to make it difficult by insisting that he should still be playing the game at international level.
In the following pages we'll give you some highlights and a few lowlights about individual performers and teams from the previous editions of cricket's premier tournament. Read on and if you have other interesting statistical anecdotes share it with us in the feedback columns below:

Dear Linux Magazine Reader,
A couple months ago, we heard the news that Oracle will produce
a Red Hat-derived Linux and undersell Red Hat for customer support. This bombshell landed hard and reverberated for about one day, until the news of Novell's deal with Microsoft washed out all the other competing dramas. Since then, the Novell deal continues to receive more scrutiny and condemnation in the press, but as I've mentioned previously, I'm more worried about the long-term effects of Oracle's profit scheme. Now that Oracle's Unbreakable Linux is up and running, I thought I'd better return to this topic and clarify why I'm so concerned.

Mathematica 4, the latest release of Wolfram Research's
technical computing system, combines extraordinary calculating abilities
with a comprehensive collection of visualization and technical publishing
tools--all in a single, elegant environment. The combination of fast new
internal algorithms, increased capabilities for importing and exporting,
and new document-processing features makes Mathematica 4 ideal for
simulations as well as prototyping--a complete ideas-to-results computing
The Mathematica 4 Japanese Edition features:
Mathematica is the only technical computing system to offer such an
extensive Japanese localization, providing not only a Japanese user
interface and documentation but also input and output of Japanese kanji
characters for professional-quality publications and web-ready
presentations. "The Japanese insistence on quality and thoroughness has
endeared them to Mathematica and resulted in our long-standing
success in
this market. That's why it was imperative that the quality of our
localization was up to Wolfram Research standards--not just industry
standards," said Conrad Wolfram, Director of Strategic and International
Development for Wolfram Research.

Transport for London is beginning a six-month trial of a speed control technology called Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) as a means to reduce fuel consumption, emissions and www.hasselaar.nl traffic accidents.
ISA works with GPS systems to import current speed limit maps for the city and to stop vehicle acceleration once the www.spotfodo.com current speed limit is met. The technology can be set to an advisory mode where the current speed limit is simply displayed on we like it buy levitra 50 mg the dash or a manual override switch allows the driver to turn the system off completely.
Transport for London is trying out the technology in taxis, buses, and select service vehicles. The trial will monitor the effect that the levitra by mail system has on emissions and road safety. The trial report will then go to www.breinweb.nl the Mayor of London and the technology may be made available to other organizations.
It's expected that the technology will benefit road safety much more than it will reduce emissions or fuel consumption, but the organization is hoping that to see improvements in those areas too.

New York City-based artist Andy Yoder used thousands of hand-painted matchsticks to create this awesome globe. The painstaking process took him two years, during which each match was glued onto a foam and cardboard frame inside a plywood skeleton. Entitled Early One Morning, the sculpture measures 42" in diameter.
And in case you're daydreaming about setting this matchstick Earth on fire, Yoder's son, Redditor yoderaustin, explained that the entire piece has been doused with flame retardant.
Early One Morning will be on display from May 8 -11, 2014 at the PULSE New York Contemporary Art Fair.

Value. Our customer demands luxurious quality, but today more than ever they want the value that we have always offered. I've always considered SFERRA "affordable luxury."
Not important. There are production techniques designed to create high thread count while providing inferior product. Never buy based solely on thread count.
Thinking there is just one way to do it. Drop the inhibitions and have fun making your bed. Allow it to speak to your personality with various decorative pillows and throws that you really love.
Being a tech/gadget guy and a lover of baseball, my iPhone4 is there loaded with the Major League Baseball Package, allowing me to watch any game being played. Who could ask for more?
The product we introduce must appeal to me personally on one or more levels. Our creative director, Aaron Stewart, does a fantastic job of keeping the collection focused.
There is no perfect bed nor way to accessorize it. Pillows are a fun element to give the bed depth and interest. Most prefer to have height at the top and graduating down in size.
Pre-wash bed linens before first use. Wash most linens in warm water with mild detergent on a gentle cycle with a cold-water rinse. Shake out damp linens before placing in dryer, and never use a high heat setting, which weakens the fibers. Remove while still slightly damp to minimize wrinkles; smooth and fold, or iron if desired. Machine wash table linens in hot water for whites, cold for colors, using pure soap in soft water, gentle detergent in hard water. Use oxygenated bleach for whites only ? chlorine bleach can weaken the fabrics and cause yellowing. Delicate lace and embellished linens should be
placed in a pillowcase or a mesh laundry bag before machine washing. Tumble dry low until slightly damp or, if possible, line dry in the sun to keep linen at its whitest. Machine wash towels in cold water, using a detergent without chlorine bleach. Never use fabric softener or dryer sheets, which leave a residue that can make towels less absorbent. Store bed linens in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Roll linen tablecloths on cardboard tubes or hang on hangers. Avoid plastic bags or boxes, which can cause permanent yellowing; natural fibers need to breathe.

Delicious lunches from leftovers
My husband cooks all our suppers from scratch, using mostly low cost ingredients, excellent use of spices, and fresh herbs from our garden during the growing season. He'll usually make a batch of something that will last the two of us for two days. Often there is a delicious broth left, or maybe even some of the main ingredients like a bit of cooked rice.
My husband is a pbj fan for lunches, but I make leftovers from supper the previous night (that were immediately refrigerated) into wonderful single servings of soups, salads, or stir-frys for myself. Because I can eat lunch at home, I eat tasty healthy lunches on what many people would have thrown into the garbage.
To make these lunches, the slow part of the cooking is already done in the tasty leftover. Depending on what the leftover is and the form of lunch I'm making with it (soup, salad, or other) I add combinations of these items: torn lettuce, chopped cooked egg, fresh veggies that can be eaten raw, fresh or dried fruits, grated cheese, yogurt, olives, nuts. Just be creative and experiment. It never comes out the same way twice, but it is always delicious.

Is atheism a religion?
There has been a lot of debate over whether atheism can be classified as a religion, or whether it is excluded from being a religion.
What do you think?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Jun 16 2011: Passion for what benefit? Atheism seems to be preached like it has major importance in the world when it comes down to it its just a belief in nothingness and so would have no effect (at least beneficial) towards people. Religious people preach so as to save people (or at least they think so) where as preaching atheism carries no reason for it.
Rory File
Jun 17 2011: A belief in nothingness ha! You funny man. Atheism is beneficial in many ways. It does away with all the homophobic, sexist and sectarian thinking of religion and embraces the idea of secularism, reason and a naturalist approach to the universe.
You can't really say "saving people" is beneficial unless they are truly saved (which they're not).
Jim Moonan 50+
Jun 17 2011: I agree there is a lot of hatred by religious people (as well as by non-religious people) but this is not due to the religion itself it is either corruption or misunderstanding most of the time it is used as an excuse to do bad things king henry the eigth for instance. and in many of these cases this as just been passed on through the ages, if you are to look back at jesus himself and his teachings; he was a socialist, a pacifist and totaly against any discrimination it is just over time it has been corrupted many times and has evolved into what it is now. they may not really be being saved but if they think they are saving thats what gives them their passion whereas i dont see how atheists can hold so much passion for something which translates into quite a depressing "reality" in fact i see in a lot of evangelic atheists that they only do it to push others down, and you dont need to be atheist to argue for gay rights ect. i do so and i am religious (not stupid religious though) and in fact if the change comes from inside it will be much more effective than if it comes from the outside, that whole thing about the sun and the wind trying to get the coat of a guy. and essentially all science says is that there was nothing then there was a big bang and then we were here, but however far you trace it back you are going to need something (whether its god or not) outside of our dimensions and beyond our comprehension to be able to create us. all in all science explains how and religion explains why, you cannot have one without the other.
Jun 17 2011: You can't say that when your religious texts are littered with those feelings. To quote one example of sexism in the Bible: "Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything." It's in Ephesians 5:21-32.
Yes, our goal is to get everyone depressed like we are (/sarcasm).
Jun 19 2011: obviously there has to be personal input to what is agreed. i would point out that that quote is not one said by Jesus but by one of his followers, who was known to be sexist. i believe that the bible has been corrupted many times, like all religions, and so you should only look really at the areas where it can be trusted fully what Jesus himself says. he does not once mention sexism or homophobia, in fact he would often anger people with his love and compassion for women and other outcasts, he befriended tax men, talked to prostitutes and touched lepers, but like usual the bible got corrupted as has everything good in the world (communism ect) Jesus himself would be very angry im sure at what has eventually happened to a lot of what he preached, just one example is that many "Christians" are right wing when Jesus was openly a socialist. it happens in all walks of life just look at nuclear weapons to see an original idea to produce mass energy turn into a bomb of mass destruction. if you look at the core of the bible that is what you need to look at and then each person should make his opinions on that.
anthony bruni 30+Jun 19 2011: Mathieu
Yes there are quotes that are outdated in the bible. Leviticus 19:27 tells what haircut a man should have. Funny that most people ignore this rule but will harp on Lev 20:13 when it comes to promoting homophobia. As for the new testament there are a few vague phrases that one could use to back up homophobia, but they could be taken in other ways. As for other religious traditions many strains of Hinduism is fine with homosexuality.
What I 'm saying is its a bit more complicated than you are making it out to be. Religions grow out of specific cultures and take on their world view. Any philosophy that that is numerous centuries old will have some dead branches that need pruning. A thousand years from now I hope some of our laws are seen as barbaric and immature (hopefully sooner). That doesn't justify saying our culture was a failure, but a work in progress.
Atheist are for the most part progressive minded people, who give healthy amounts to charity, volunteer their time, and keep healthy ethical boundaries. I just think its a stretch to say its a causation of atheism. We are more connected through technology which seems to be the real catalyst for humanism, and whatever belief/non believes we have / don't have are outgrowths of that.

A Behind-the-Scenes Look at the Timeless Maker of Gentlemen's Brogues
No less than Frank Sinatra, Aristotle Onassis and Prince Charles have sworn sartorial allegiance to English shoemaker John Lobb, so to mark the brand's 150th anniversary this year NOWNESS traveled to the Northampton factory where the classic designs are born. Known for such iconic styles as the double-buckled William "Monk" shoe (named for founder John Lobb's son) and the slip-on Lopez loafer, the brand follows a rigorous 190-step process for the creation of each pair, which spans several weeks from the initial cutting of the Italian calf leather to the final buff once the sole has been attached. "Shoes are an essential part of a man's identity," says Andrés Hernandez, the company's creative director. "To the non-discerning customer, one black brogue is the same as another, but what makes John Lobb shoes special is that we know the dreams and expectations of the customer; we achieve the most you can from a shoe." Having opened its first London store in 1866 on Regent Street, with a Paris outpost following soon after, the brand is now owned by the Hermès Group, with the exception of its bespoke workshop, which remains in the hands of the family.

No. 7 Connecticut Slides Past Brown in Overtime, 2-1The Brown field hockey team lost a close game in overtime yesterday when they traveled to Storrs, Connecticut to take on the 7th ranked Huskies. The Bears were spectacular, holding UConn scoreless for the first 68 minutes of the contest with a relentless defense and excellent goalkeeping.
The first half was scoreless for both sides, as Brown's defensive unit shut down all attempts to score by the Huskies, who had ten shots and six corners in the first 35 minutes of the game. Brown tallied three shots and had only one corner, with goalie Annie Owens (Louisville, KY) registering four solid saves in the net. Megan Patterson (Holliston, MA) and Cory Pelletier (Walpole, MA) each made key defensive saves for the Bears as well.
All fired up in the second half, it did not take long for Brown to finally put the ball in the net. Susy Garcia (Highland Lakes, NJ) got the play started in the midfield, when she ran onto a pass and continued to carry the ball through the Connecticut defense and into the top of the circle. She drove the ball across the net and Cara Gardner (Hensall, Ontario) redirected it, sending it through her legs and into the goal at 29:17. The Brown defense kept UConn in check for the rest of the half, holding onto their lead until only two minutes remained in regulation. At 2:01, Husky Amy Marland notched the tying goal when she connected on a pass from Amy Herz, sending the game into overtime.
Neither team could put another goal on the board in the first thirteen minutes of 7 vs. 7 over time, although both sides had very close opportunities. The winning tally came at 2:06, when Connecticut's Laura Klein found the back of the net after receiving a solid pass from Amy Herz.
Connecticut registered 24 shots total in the game, took 15 penalty corners and had one defensive save, while Brown had a total of seven shots, one corner and three defensive saves.
Husky goalie Alana Linick recorded nine saves in the net. Annie Owens recorded 13 saves and played a stellar game in goal for the Bears, anchoring an excellent defensive unit.
Connecticut's record improves to 9-2 overall, while Brown drops to 3-3.
The Bears have their next game at home, this Sunday, October 1, when they take on the Scarlet Knights of Rutgers at 1:00 p.m.

The British Crime Survey (BCS) provides information on a wide range of public perception measures relating to crime and the criminal justice system. These include confidence in the police, victim and witness satisfaction with the police, and confidence in the police working with local agencies.
Crime statistics from the Crime Survey for England and Wales and police recorded crime.
The British Crime Survey (BCS) asks respondents about their contacts with the police, their assessment of police performance and also asks questions about their views of the police. Victims of crimes the police came to know about are also asked about the service they received from the police.
In October 2004, the BCS included a new set of questions relating to people's perceptions of the local police. A greater emphasis on partnership working has resulted in the policing questions in the BCS being expanded to cover working in partnership. From October 2008,Āa new set of questions was included in the BCS. TheseĀrelate to levels of confidence in the police working with local agencies to tackle the anti-social behaviour and crime issues that matter in the local area.
Technical Data
The British Crime Survey (BCS) is a nationally representative survey of approximately 47,000 adults living in private households in England and Wales. It is a face-to-face survey in which respondents are asked about their experiences of crime in the 12 months prior to their interview. They are also asked about their perceptions of crime and crime-related topics, such as their attitudes to the police.
The main BCS measure for confidence in the police is the percentage of respondents who believe the local police are doing 'a good or excellent' job. The BCS also includes questions about people's perceptions of the following seven aspects of their local police (how much they agree or disagree with the statements):
the police in this area can be relied on to be there when you need them
the police in this area would treat you with respect if you had contact with them for any reason
the police in this area treat everyone fairly regardless of who they are
the police in this area can be relied on to deal with minor crimes
the police in this area understand the issues that affect this community
the police in this area are dealing with the things that matter to people in this community
taking everything into account I have confidence in the police in this area
Since October 2007, the BCS has included two questions to measure public confidence in the police working with local agencies to understand and tackle the crime and anti-social behaviour issues of importance in their community. Respondents are asked how much they agree or disagree with the statements:
the police and local council seek people's views about the anti-social behaviour issues that matter in the area
the police and local council are dealing with the anti-social behaviour issues that matter in the area
Calibration weighting
Calibration weighting is used on the British Crime Survey (BCS) and is designed to make adjustments for known differentials in response rates between different age by sex subgroups and households with different age and sex composition. For example, a household containing a 24-year-old male living alone may be less likely to respond to the survey than a household containing a 24-year-old male living with a young partner and a child. The procedure, therefore, gives different weights to different household types based on their age/sex composition in such a way that the weighted distribution of individuals in the responding households matches the known distribution in the population as a whole.
Confidence interval
Surveys produce statistics that are estimates of the real figure for the population under study. These estimates are always surrounded by a margin of error of plus or minus a given range. The confidence intervals for a particular statistic provide a range of values around that statistic where the 'true' (population) statistic is located with a given level of certainty. Confidence intervals can also be constructed for changes in estimates between years of the British Crime Survey (BCS) and for differences between population subgroups (see Statistical significance).
Sampling error
A sample, as used in the British Crime Survey (BCS), is a small-scale representation of the population from which it is drawn. As such, the sample may produce estimates that differ from the figures that would have been obtained if the whole population had been interviewed. The size of the error depends on the sample size, the size and variability of the estimate, and the design of the survey. It can be computed and used to construct confidence intervals. Sampling error is also taken into account in tests of statistical significance.
Statistical significance
Statistical significance is the probability that an observed difference or relationship in a sample occurred by chance, and that in the population no such difference or relationship exists. The British Crime Survey (BCS) estimates are subject to sampling error, so differences between estimates from successive years of the survey or between population subgroups may occur by chance. Tests of statistical significance are used to identify which differences are unlikely to have occurred by chance. In this publication, tests at theĀ5 per cent significance level have been applied (the level at which there is aĀ1 in 20 chance of an observed difference being solely due to chance).
Weighted data
Two types of weighting are used to ensure the representativeness of the British Crime Survey (BCS) sample. Firstly, the raw data are weighted to compensate for unequal probabilities of selection. These include: the individual's chance of participation being inversely proportional to the number of adults living in the household; the over-sampling of smaller police force areas; and the selection of multi-household addresses. Secondly, calibration weighting is used to adjust for differential non-response.

Today we have guest post from Norm Johanson, a Software Developer on our Developer Resources team. Norm has put together a post to show you how to track the session state of an ASP.NET application uusing Amazon DynamoDB.
-- Jeff;
When developing a new ASP.NET application, a common approach is to store session data in memory. Unfortunately, this approach doesn't scale very well; once your application grows beyond a single web server, the session state must be shared between servers. The common solution to sharing session state over multiple web servers is to set up a dedicated session state server with SQL Server. Of course, this approach has certain drawbacks: you must administer another machine, the session state server is a single point of failure, and the session state server can be a performance bottleneck.
Amazon DynamoDB, a new NoSQL database store from Amazon Web Services (AWS), is designed to address these drawbacks. The only administrative decision to make is how much you want to scale.
Configuring Amazon DynamoDB
In version 220.127.116.11 of the AWS SDK for .NET, we added the AWS.Extensions.dll which contains an ASP.NET session state provider. We also added the AmazonDynamoDBSessionProviderSample sample which demonstrates using Amazon DynamoDB as a session state provider.
To configure an ASP.NET application to use Amazon DynamoDB as the session state server, you need to add references to
AWSSDK.dll and AWS.Extensions.dll which are both part of the AWS SDK for .NET installer and available through NuGet. Next, edit your
application's web.config file—in the
system.web element, replace or add the
sessionState node with the following XML fragment:
<add name="DynamoDBSessionStoreProvider"
You need to provide access and secret keys for a valid AWS account where
indicated. This is the account that will be used to communicate
with Amazon DynamoDB to store and retrieve the session state.
If you are using the AWS SDK for .NET and are setting the access and
secret keys in the appSettings section of your application's web.config
you can leave the access and secret keys blank in the
sessionState element; the SDK will then discover the keys at runtime.
When your application starts, it looks for a DynamoDB table called ASP.NET_SessionState. We recommend that you create this table before first running your application, with a string hash key, no range key and the desired values for ReadCapacityUnits and WriteCapacityUnits. If you are eligible for the AWS Free Usage Tier, you can consume up to 100 MB of DynamoDB storage, 5 units of write capacity, and 10 units of read capacity at no charge for one year. See the DynamoDB pricing page for additional information. If you don't create the table before starting the application it can be created automatically during initial startup. See the web.config options below for how to configure the Amazon DynamoDB table.
That is all there is to it. Once the application is configured and the table is created, sessions can be used like any other session provider.
Web.config Options
Below are the configuration attributes that can be used in the XML provider definition in your web.config file:
- AWSAccessKey - access key to use. This can be set either in the provider definition or in the appSettings section.
- AWSSecretKey - secret key to use. This can be set either in the provider definition or in the appSettings section.
- Region - required string attribute. The region to use DynamoDB in.
- Application - optional string attribute. Application is used to partition the session data in the table so it can be used for more than one application.
- Table - optional string attribute. The name of the table used to store session data. The default is ASP.NET_SessionState.
- ReadCapacityUnits - optional int attribute. The read capacity units if the table is not yet created. The default is 10.
- WriteCapacityUnits - optional int attribute. The write capacity units if the table is not yet created. The default is 5.
- CreateIfNotExist - optional boolean attribute. CreateIfNotExist controls whether the table will be auto created if it doesn't exist. The default is true. If this flag is set to false and the table doesn't exist, an exception will be thrown.
Security Considerations
As a security best practice, we recommend that you run your applications with the credentials of an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) user. You can use either the AWS Console or the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio to create IAM users and define access policies.
The session state provider needs to be able to call the
DeleteItem, DescribeTable, GetItem, PutItem and
UpdateItem operations for the table storing the session data.
The sample policy below can be used to restrict the IAM user to just the operations needed by the provider:
"Version" : "2008-10-17",
"Statement" : [
"Sid" : "1",
"Effect" : "Allow",
"Action" : [
"Resource" : "arn:aws:dynamodb:us-east-1:<YOUR-AWS-ACCOUNT-ID>:table/ASP.NET_SessionState"

They're the ones who know the rules of play, and make them a way of nightlife. They can tell you the proper way to bowl a strike (steady wrists, my friends), the most effective foosball defense strategies, and the ultimate way to mix a Gin and Tonic, or as we call it, a Gym and Tonic.
What are the rules of play, you ask? Some of our favorites include:
- Know your position on the field: The band hasn't even finished setting up and you've already staked out a prime position on the dance floor. You also might have a mental map of the best spot to catch the bartender's attention at all of your favorite haunts.
- Practice makes perfect: Whether it's a ping pong backhand or a bacon sandwich eating contest...practice is the path to victory.
- There's no "I" in Team: After Hours Athletes are always loyal to their teammates and never leave a comrade in trouble - no matter the personal sacrifice. Like the time you let your locked-out buddy crash on your couch at 4am, despite your 5am wake-up call? That's loyalty.
- You miss 100 percent of the shots you never take: You'll sleep when you're dead. Plus hanging out until the lights go on ensures way better access to the cute bartender. Oh, did you think we were talking about hockey?
So, come on and tell us, what rules are in your after hours play book?

This notice explains how VAT applies to charges made for postage and delivery services.
The notice has been restructured and rewritten to improve readability. It contains some minor content changes from the June 1994 edition.
Paragraph 2.3 of the section on delivered goods takes into account the recent House of Lords decision in the case of Plantiflor Ltd. Paragraph 3.2 of the section on direct mailing services includes a further condition which must be met before postal charges can be treated as a disbursement. Section 4, which covers international deliveries, has also been updated.
You can access details of any changes to this notice since April 2003 either on our Internet website at www.hmce.gov.uk or by telephoning the National Advice Service on 0300 200 3700.
This notice and others mentioned are available both on paper and on our website.
You should read this notice if you:
Postal services provided by the Post Office are exempt from VAT, but this exemption does not extend to similar services provided by other suppliers, even where this might be seen as being in direct competition with the Post Office. However, if any delivery charge you make to your own customers includes the cost of stamps you buy from the Post Office you may have to charge VAT on the whole amount including the cost of those stamps.
A supply of goods may involve delivery to the customer. The way any delivery charge is treated for VAT purposes depends on the circumstances in which the goods are supplied.
If delivery is free, or the cost is built into the normal price, VAT is accounted for on the goods in the normal way based on the liability of the goods themselves. This applies whether or not delivery is required under the contract.
The important test is whether delivery is included in the contract. You are making a single supply of delivered goods if, under the contract, you have to deliver the goods to a place specified by the customer. This might include the customer's:
The position is not affected by whether the charge you make for delivery is separately itemised or invoiced to the customer. In either case there is a single supply for which the VAT liability is based on the liability of the goods being delivered. For example, any element of the price attributed to the doorstep delivery of milk and newspapers will also be zero rated. On the other hand any element attributed to the delivery of standard rated mail order goods will be standard rated.
Delivery services are normally treated as a separate supply of services only where you:
In this case the liability of the delivery charge is not affected by the liability of the goods you are delivering and is normally standard rated - but see section 4 if the delivery is to, or from, a place outside the United Kingdom. For example, in distributing a publisher's newspapers (which are zero rated) you are nevertheless making a standard rated supply of services. Similarly, if you deliver the goods by post, the supply of delivery services remains taxable even though the supply to you by the Post Office will be exempt (see paragraph 1.4).
If you supply a separate packing service this will be standard rated within the United Kingdom, but see paragraph 4.4 if the supply is connected with a movement of goods to, or from, the United Kingdom.
If you are a retailer and are involved in the supply of either delivered goods or you charge for delivery, the treatment of the charge will depend on the type of scheme used.
If you use …
then please follow the guidance in …

This covers the service of posting your client's mail, for example publicity or advertising material or promotional goods.
In this section references to "Royal Mail" include other operators licensed by Postcomm. In these circumstances you can treat Royal Mail charges as a disbursement for VAT purposes provided the following conditions are all met:
All these conditions must be satisfied before you can treat a payment as a disbursement for VAT purposes.
Disbursements are fully covered in Notice 700 The VAT Guide (see paragraph 3.2). However, this section includes details of the general conditions that must be met before direct mailing charges can be treated as a disbursement. These requirements are:
If any of these conditions are not met you will be unable to treat postal charges as a disbursement. In that case they become part of your charge for the supply of direct mailing services to your customer and therefore liable to VAT. They will normally be standard rated, but see section 4 if your supply of direct mailing is to, or from, a place outside the United Kingdom.
Freepost is an arrangement whereby the recipient (ie the advertiser) of a returned mailshot pays the postage costs on behalf of the sender (eg a member of the public); commonly a PO box number will also be used. The supply by Royal Mail of the Freepost and PO Box licences, plus any handling service for which an additional fee is charged, is made to the licence holder. This may be the recipient (advertiser) or an agent handling the mail on the recipient's behalf. However, the supply of postage is made to the sender of the mail, although the recipient (advertiser) or the agent meets the cost.
This means that where an agent is employed to handle the Freepost:
You are making a supply of freight transport services.
If you transport goods to or from …
then you are making a supply of …
another Member State
intra-EU freight transport.
a place outside the EU
international freight transport.
You will find further information on how these supplies should be treated for VAT purposes in Notice 744B Freight transport and associated services.
This is also covered in Notice 744B Freight transport and associated services.
Depending on the contractual terms with your customer, you will probably be making a supply of an ancillary transport service. You can find further information on this in Notice 744B Freight transport and associated services.

Mar 24 2013: Arkady,
here are the most active extremist groups in Iraq:
1- AQI (alqaeda in Iraq).
2- Baathists
3- AII (aljash aleslami in Iraq)
4- (PKK) Kurdistan Workers Party
5- AAH (asaed ahl alhaq)
6- Alyaoum Almawood Brigade
There's a lot of them but the groups show above conducting the most effective attacks in Iraq, by the way Muslims don't considering them as a part of Islam.
- They are radical people.
- They want to oust anyone who does not agree with them and not be subjected to them.
- I guess they believe in violence because they have brains been washed by the extremist leaders.
I would like to explain something important: EXTREMIST GROUPS ARE NOT FROM SUNNI OR SHIITE SIDE. THEY HAVE DIFFERENT BELIEFS THAN SHIITE OR SUNNI. AS I SEE, EXTREMIST ARE TARGETING ALL IRAQIS AS A ONE TARGET.
Mar 24 2013: This seems like an extremely tough situation. My philosophy is to stay away from violence altogether. But I admire people like Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King.
I find that Westerners are very misinformed about Middle East. I'm not sure if you can get a good advice or solution from the Western culture.
I wish you the best in your pursuit.
Mar 24 2013: Arkady,
The reason of posting this question in English is to get advice by westerns because most of their countries used to have kind of same issue in my country long time back, and now most of the western countries they live in peace & sustainability.
I believe Arab failed to make arab world much better, you can see what we earned from ARAB SPRING !!
More bloody Arab nation..
So sorry to say so, but it is the truth my friend..
Mar 24 2013: Look back at history. After the United States declared their independence in 1776, there was a war with Great Britain, there were decades of slave trading and driving out Indians from their land, there was a Civil war that ended in 1865 (89 years after Independence), women got to vote in 1920, apartheid ended in 1964, and gay rights just start to be debated. French history is not much "more civilized".
When Mahatma Gandhi was asked, "what do you think of Western civilization?", he answered: "I think, it's a good idea." I don't think Arabs are lacking anything. It just takes time.

One Year Anniversary Get-a-way!
My husband and I stayed here for our one year anniversary! It was the perfect get-a-away!! Barbara, the owner, was so helpful; she left us with maps of the area and with her top recommended restaurants. The cottage was very charming. It was well-kept, clean, and maintained. The yard and the hot-tub were well-kept as well. It was a lengthy walk up and down stairs to downtown, but it was definitely doable, especially with a relaxing hot-tub to enjoy after the walk up! I did the walk while 6 months pregnant. Everything you need is with-in walking distance! Thank you so much, Barbara! We truly enjoyed our stay! :)
