I have been working at Lilly UK full-time for more than 10 yearsPros
great benefits, opportunity to learn new skills and develop. You can really make a difference at Lilly to your job and to peoples lives... lots of very talented people and team work is great. great social club with lots going on to suit all tastes. people tend to really like it here and stick around - ther are opportunities to do different things so you don't need to get stuck in a rut... lots of good training - soft skills as well as technicalCons
Often lots to do - you do need to be prepared to be a bit flexible sometimes with time but your own priorities are taken into account as well and there is always good recognition for a job well done. The pharma industry has lots of challenges and bringin new products out remains top priority and does put some challenges into the business form time to timeRecommendsNeutral OutlookApproves of CEO

These people really do care. Every year they focus on ensuring the employees know their objectives, understand them, have a development plan, don't get too frustrated... The effort spent on people is huge (if not talking about salaries or bonuses).Cons
Objectives cannot be met just because is "nice working here", so management have realised they have to change the way they operate. Innovation and risk taking may be the key, but you have to be prepared, and you have to be bold and brave. Current management got to their positions developing other competencies not related to bravery... so Lilly ends up being a company focused in change, but not daring to do it!Advice to ManagementAdvice

I work shift and receive long days off. I work 2 days 2 nights and get 6 days off.
There are opportunities to work on projects i.e. coming off shift and working with a team of people. To see a project through to its completion is satisfying knowing all the hard work you put in.
The pension and benefits scheme is one of the best I have ever seen. it is non contributory. You may also make contributions in the form of SPECS which is taken from salaries there fore not taxed.Cons
You can do the same job as someone else but don't receive the same pay. Unfair pay scales based on time served and not knowledge.
I am told that it would take 10 years of doing the same job before I receive the same rate of pay as my colleagues.

Updated through 9/14/14 - 13 games left for Cubs.
For failing to sign top overall pick Brady Aiken, the Houston Astros will get the 2nd pick in next year's draft on top of their regular pick. The teams with the 10 worst records have their first round pick protected if they signed a qualified free agent this offseason.

Spring training is all about hope. It's a new season and every team is tied for first place. Anything can happen. Maybe this is the year that the Cubs (or your favorite team) can win it all.
At least that's how things are in theory. In practice, not so much. The truth is that when MLB opens their 2010 season, about one-third of the teams will have no realistic chance of competing for a spot in the post-season. These teams have become little more than fodder to fill out baseball's regular season schedule.
I thought you liked managers to have big contracts...
Castillo looked like he was gonna wrench Rizzo's back to hell coming out of the home plate scrum!
Tony Four Sacks
The RIZZOmeter just went up to 10!!
cubs win!
Everyday I pop out of bed and thank god for Luis Valbuena. He's like the Tony Gwynn of players who totally suck.
I did some math and it turns out without Mike Olt's stats this year the league wide K numbers would have been right around average.
Reds lineup is something...
Hamilton, Negron, Frazier, Mesorasco, Y. Rodriguez, J. Bourgeois, R. Santiago, J. Elmore, A. Simon
good day for Travis to find himself.
13 through 6 for deGrom, 88 pitches
There's a very good chance he's in a caretaker role, I'll grant you that.
12 K through 5 for deGrom, 74 pitches so far...
I've been in that camp at times this year, but the more I think about it that's being pretty generous. Bosio has overseen the pitching every year and it's always great. Rizzo and Castro might have just been left alone and gravitated back to the mean, and they're underachieving for their run differential. I think he's gone by the serious playoff runs in 2016 2017 etc.
twitter says it tied modern record with our pal Jim Deshaies, who did it in 1986 vs. Dodgers
pitcher gets a single off him and then Yelich grounds out
42 pitches through 3, 8 K's
first 8
Jacob deGrom with 7 K's...first 7 hitters.

Ordering for a Team?
Let our Team Division Help!
Item has a Minimum Qty
I needed a quality long lasting polyester training jammer. I kept on replacing jammers every season, until I contacted swimoutlet and they told me I need to get a polyester short instead of nylon/lycra (which apparently break down in chlorine, polyester doesn't) Shorts fit closer to size as my pants, so I didn't have to worry about purchasing a size larger or smaller to accommodate the material stretch. Great shorts overall, I will probably purchase more arena brand.
Very comfortable! Smooth fit. Great racing and training suit. Impressed with this suit so far!
I ordered this Arena jammer with the hopes that it would last a little longer than its Lycra counterparts, and did not expect to be blown away by the performance. The Arena PLY/PBT training jammer has a feel of durability and quality with a full coverage brief and impressive stiching. Most impressive however, is the moderate compression fit which surprisingly increased my kick propulsion, glide through the water and ironically improved my PR's in ALL strokes.
If you want a suit that fits, lasts and looks good, this is the suit for you.
I swim daily and need a suit that fits and lasts. You can't do better.
Medida adecuada y permite comodidad a la hora de nadar.
Nice material. Great fit.
Feel snug but will stretch to fit.

Fi'zi:k M5 Donna Shoes $179.95
The new age of comfort.
Fi'zi:k's road shoes have become well known for their incredible comfort, so it only makes sense to bring that same experience to the mountain bike set. The Fi'zi:k M5 Donna Shoes are a strong example of this trickle down. Basically, you get the full befit of Fi'zi:k's considerable know-how, wrapped up in a supportive and stunningly attractive package.
Fi'zi:k built the uppers of the M5 Donna shoes out of a blend of Microtex microfiber, nylon mesh, and leather. The Microtex microfiber and nylon mesh handle ventilation duties, keeping your feet cool when you're working hard. Meanwhile, the anti-scratch leather is applied in high-wear areas like the toe box and heel cup. And although it's a hard-wearing material, the leather remains supple and soft. Additionally, you'll find that it breaks in beautifully, adding comfort to the requisite durability.
And since nobody wants their energy to go to waste, Fi'zi:k employed three retention straps. All three are built out of durable sailcloth, and each are cut wide in order to relieve pressure on your feet. The two foremost straps use a hook-and-loop closure for fine-tuned volume adjustments. And the strap nearest to your ankle attaches via a proprietary ratcheting buckle that's been constructed from aluminum for durability.
However, correct fit alone won't guarantee pedaling efficiency. Accordingly, Fi'zi:k gave the M5 Donna shoes a carbon-reinforced, nylon outsole. And while it's not quite as stiff as the carbon fiber outsole of the M1 series, this outsole combines plenty of stiffness with just enough flex to minimize trail chatter. This design fights foot discomfort, which is a common result of riding extremely stiff shoes off-road. And since you'll end up walking your bike sooner or later, Fi'zi:k added rubber lugs to the bottom of the sole in order to increase your traction on the dirt and rocks.
Fi'zi:k included its Superlight insole in the M5 Donna. And while it's not heat moldable like the 3D Flex insole in its M1 shoes, the Superlight insole benefits from an anatomic design that allows it to fully-support your foot. The Superlight insole also has the added benefit of impact absorbing materials to further reduce trail chatter and to keep your feet feeling fresh after a long day on the trail.
The Fi'zi:k M5 Donna Shoes are available in the color Black and in whole and half sizes from 37.0 to 43.0.

Is there a Fi'zi:k shoe chart available? The chart here has most brands but not Fi'zi:k
Member since
I ordered 40.5 which the shoe tag said was equivalent to an 8, but I found it ran big (fit like a 9). Returning for a 40.

Member since
Thanks! Was able to get a hold of Fi'zi:k from their website and they kindly sent me a women's shoes size chart. It seems they run about a size bigger than Sidi (I'm 7.5M in US sizing, 40 in Sidi and it looks like I should be 39 in Fi'zi:k)
nice shoe, but too big
Member since
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
I really liked this shoe and it received great reviews, unfortunately it did not work for me. I tried three different sizes but the heel was always loose and my heel would slip out, even when the shoe was snug in the toe box. I do not have a narrow heel, typically my shoe size tends to be medium to wide. Otherwise it was very well made and I loved the design.

Had my first u/s of this cycle this morning. Lining looks good at 8mm. On my right ovary, I have nine follies ranging from 4-9mm. On the left, I have four follies at 9mm, 11mm, 12mm and 17mm.
Pretty sure my right ovary is going to be a dud again, but I'm hoping one more from the left will catch up to the 17mm follie before they have me trigger. My RE moved my next u/s until Thursday, so I feel like she is listening to me about wanting to wait it out to give a second follie a chance to catch up. Last cycle, they had me trigger when I only had one follie at 16mm measured on an u/s the day before.
She does want me to do OPKs tomorrow and Thursday just in case, but I've had follies get as big as 24-26mm with no surge in the past, which is why I think she is willing to let me go longer this time.
Please keep praying for me. This may be our last chance for a long while!

TORONTO (AP) — The former Canadian ambassador to Iran who protected Americans at great personal risk during the 1979 Iran hostage crisis said Monday it was good to hear Ben Affleck thank Canada after Affleck's film "Argo" won the Oscar for best picture.
"Argo" came under criticism from some Canadians, including former ambassador Ken Taylor, who said he felt slighted by the movie because it makes Canada look like a meek observer to CIA heroics. Taylor says it minimizes Canada's role in the Americans' rescue.
Taylor criticized Affleck on Friday and said he hoped Affleck would acknowledge Canada's role. Affleck briefly thanked Canada in his acceptance speech Sunday.
"Finally, he mentioned Canada," Taylor said. "Under the circumstances, I think that was fine. It certainly acknowledged Canada. I think certainly the movie was about CIA agent Tony Mendez. I think that President Carter's remarks put everything in proportion."
Carter appeared on television last week and said, "90 percent of the contributions to the ideas and the consummation of the plan was Canadian," but the film "gives almost full credit to the American CIA."
Taylor kept the Americans hidden at his residence and at the home of his deputy, John Sheardown, in Tehran for three months and facilitated their escape by arranging plane tickets and persuading the Ottawa government to issue fake passports. He also agreed to go along with the CIA's film production cover story to get the Americans out of Iran.
Taylor became a hero in Canada and in the United States where crowds celebrated with banners that proclaimed, "Thank you, Canada."
Taylor said the movie makes it seem like the Canadians were just along for the ride. Taylor and Carter both noted that Mendez, played by Affleck in the film, was only in Iran for a day and a half.
"The movie is done. President Carter expressed his views, and that's where we sit. I think, being realistic, there's not much at this point that can be realized," Taylor said.
"Argo" also makes no mention of Sheardown, the First Secretary at the embassy. Taylor said it was Sheardown who took the first call from the American diplomats who had evaded capture when Iranian militants seized the U.S. Embassy in November 1979 and agreed right away to take the Americans in. Sheardown died on Dec. 30, and his wife, Zena, called the movie disappointing.
"Argo" screenwriter Chris Terrio, who won best adapted screenplay prize Sunday night, mentioned Taylor and Sheardown in his speech after saluting Mendez.
"Thirty-three years ago Tony, using nothing but his creativity and his intelligence, got six people out of a very bad situation," said Terrio, who based his script on Mendez's book "The Master of Disguise" and a Wired magazine article by Joshuah Bearman.
"And so I want to dedicate this to him and the Taylors and the Sheardowns and people all over the world in the U.S., in Canada, in Iran, who use creativity and intelligence to solve problems non-violently."
Taylor appreciated that Terrio mentioned Sheardown, Sheardown's wife and Taylor's wife.
"He dedicated it to Tony Mendez. That was what his script was about, it so that's understandable. I think that recognition of both Pat and myself and John and Zena was in a sense welcomed," he said.
During a recent talk in Toronto, Taylor took issue with a myriad of creative liberties in "Argo" and said Terrio "had no idea" what he was talking about.
Friends of Taylor were outraged last September when "Argo" debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival. The original postscript of the movie said that Taylor received 112 citations and awards for his work in freeing the hostages and suggested Taylor didn't deserve them because the movie ends with the CIA deciding to let Canada have the credit for helping the Americans escape.
Taylor called the postscript lines "disgraceful and insulting" and said it would have caused outrage in Canada if the lines were not changed. Affleck flew Taylor to Los Angeles after the Toronto debut and allowed him to insert a postscript that gave Canada some credit.
In a statement released on Friday, Affleck said he admired Taylor very much but said he was surprised Taylor still had an issue with the film. Affleck also said he agreed narrate a documentary that Taylor is involved with, about Canada's role in the Iran hostage crisis.
Taylor said it was news to him that Affleck had agreed to narrate the documentary and said he looked forward to working on it with him.
I am an American, and I can understand completely the apprehension those brave and creative men and women from Canada have about the film not portraying the subject matter in a more complete manner. As I have come to understand it, the British also had a hand in the rescue process as well, and they have not had a lot of press for that effort. Even so, I think that reasonable people can agree that the film does entertain well, and is a gateway to an interesting time which will lead curious viewers to find out more about the events and to be grateful to more of the great individuals who embarked upon such grave personal and professional risk in order to help these people. Personally I knew very little of this story before seeing the film, and after researching it further it has served to solidify my great respect for Canada, a country which fully deserves it's status as one of the most liked in all the world. I am cognizant that my country (and even my state of Texas) is seen as somewhat belligerent, but I can still hope that time and education can only serve to unite more of the brilliant and kind people that exist in all nations. In defiance of the stupidity of many leaders and governments, there are heroes of every possible origin on this earth, and they often come from very surprising places and times. I laud the film for shedding light on some, while opening the door for people to examine the true historical record, which contains so much more than can be captured in a mere evening's film.
Kindest wishes to you all, from a Texan!

Birding festival returns to area
More birding plans are on the table. As the Blaine-Birch Bay birding committee has completed its report establishing plans and goals, a date has been set for the second annual bird festival sponsored by the Brant Foundation.
The birding committee, comprised of citizens, officials, business people and birding professionals, was created last year to bring birding to the forefront of the area�s economy and recreational opportunities. The committee�s recent report to the Blaine city council outlined its plans and goals, which include developing birdwatching infrastructure such as viewing sites at designated waterfront locations and a birding center that allows birders to congregate in a specific location.
The committee is also interested in purchasing a spotting scope for Marine Park and another area, and are planning to spread the local birding word through national and regional publications, media stations, and a full-color informational brochure touting local birding areas and species information.
In addition to the committee�s plans, the Brant Foundation has announced it will return to Blaine for the second Brant festival, an event focusing on the small sea goose. The festival was held for the first time last year in Blaine and Birch Bay, and for the first year was considered quite successful. The second annual festival has been scheduled for April 16, 17 and 18, 2004 and is expected to attract 1,000 people or more. This year�s festival will incorporate educational programs, speeches and more visual displays.
For more information about the festival, visit online at www.washingtonbrant.org. For bird committee meeting dates, call the city of Blaine at 332-8311.

The annual Queens County St. Patrick's Day Parade still displayed Irish pride in the Rockaways on Saturday despite the area still suffering from the effects of Superstorm Sandy.
The parade is one of several that take place every year in the five boroughs in particular the Rockaways, where there are several Irish-American neighborhoods, suffered a lot of devastation due to Superstorm Sandy on October 29.
Hundreds of marchers, including Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Council Speaker Christine Quinn, went through some blocks in the Belle Harbor neighborhood where fires caused by the storm burned down houses to charred shells.
The parade also made its way pass a block of burned stores in Rockaway Park.

If you are even somewhat attractive most people assume a couple things about you:
#1 You have beauty and no brains.
#2 You have had sex and will have sex with guys if they pursue you long enough.
These two reasons probably explain the looks I get when people find out that I am not just another pretty face.
In college, I went to a very liberal school, the University of Colorado. I loved it, but I think most of my professors didn't love me; I couldn't keep my mouth shut.
Don't get me wrong, I was a great listener. I listened as they taught Darwinism as fact instead of theory. I listened to another professor as she spoke of the evil of Viagra. I listened as another professor preached relativism as the ultimate truth. I listened to another professor describe women as sluts and sex objects in order to get laughs and illustrate his concepts. I listened, but when I spoke, they got upset.
To the Darwin teaching professor, I challenged claims and fallacies that he could not refute. I refused to answer questions on the tests that were phrased with verbiage that implied that Darwin's beliefs were fact, not theory. I argued for Creation and when I did I was told that "office hours have ended," and I left, only to return the next day.
Day after day I listened to my professor talk negatively about men, marriage, and God. I asked a question my first day in class to challenge her teachings and she changed the subject. Since my professor continually ignored me when I tried to ask a question, I began sitting in the front row in her class. One day she somehow incorporated the topic of Viagra into her teaching, and I couldn't take it anymore.
I raised my hand, she looked me in the eyes, and before she turned away I made my comment. "I don't know about anyone else in this room, but I am saving sex for marriage. I want to have sex with my husband as often and as long as possible; so if that means he needs to take Viagra, then so be it."
What a surprise… she changed the subject. I later found out that she was married and her husband left her for a younger woman… that is so sad.
Then there was the professor who taught Relativism as if it were truth. I learned the theory and applied it to my grade in her class. I received a grade for every test, essay, presentation in that class. If her grade didn't match the grade that I thought I should receive, I approached her and we had a discussion. Bottom line, her grade was relative, and in order to be consistent in her beliefs, she had to give my thoughts of the grade I believed i deserved equal value as hers.
So, can you guess what grade I got in that class? I got an "A". She was probably sick of discussing Relativism with me… go figure.
Finally… the professor who constantly spoke of women in degrading ways. I told him to start using examples of women in more wholesome ways or I would report him. His examples gave me an unfair learning disadvantage because every time he told another disgusting story I had to tune him out in order to keep my thoughts pure. So many times I missed the whole concept he was explaining.
The next day he apologized to the class and he spoke kindly of women from that point on.
The next time someone thinks that you are ditsy, ignorant, or "easy" simply because you are pretty, shock them by sticking up for your beliefs and your standards. You never know who will be positively affected by it!

Authorities say a Tucson man is in custody in connection with the death of his female friend.
Pima County Sheriff's officials say 47-year-old Tyler Gunn has been booked into the county jail on suspicion of second-degree murder.
On Friday, deputies received a 911 call from a man who said came home to find his son at the house with a dead woman.
Gunn told investigators that he and 37-year-old Katherine Lemburg went to an area east of Tucson, where he participated in the woman's suicide.
Gunn then brought Lemburg's body back to his parent's house, where he placed her in a bedroom.
Investigators say they haven't confirmed Gunn's account.
It was unclear Monday if Gunn has a lawyer yet for his case.

Slow Marlins news day, near as I can tell, but we'll get to some interesting items in today's Fish Bites.
- If you hadn't already heard, the Marlins officially won Sunday's game against the Yankees! The protest was turned down by Major League Baseball. Thanks, Joe Girardi, for wasting everyone's time!
- Congratulations to everyone who won stuff in last night's charity auction. Looks like the extra innings helped push the total higher than last year. Great stuff.
- Juan C. Rodriguez of the Marlins Sun-Sentinel blog revisits the Marlins game last night. Good to see the Fish pull into .500. Also, Rodriguez rightly claims that fixing the bullpen won't be as easy as moving everyone's favorite Leo Nunez to closer over Lindstrom. I've been saying the last few days that they're about the same in terms of true performance, and I'm glad to see Rodriguez agrees, even if it took an ugly brief outing by Nunez to convince people.
- Marc Hulet of FanGraphs has the sophomore review train stop by the NL East and discuss the Marlins second-year guys. I absolutely agree with his analysis so far.
- For some sabermetrics heavy-hitting, check out Tom Tango's post on UZR in the mainstream. The post isn't much, but particularly interesting is the discussion that occurs afterwards, talking about error in UZR and using single-season data for MVP-type consideration. MGL, the innovator of the stat himself, makes an appearance. Myself, I'd give the single-season some merit, but only in context to a player's career UZR/150, i.e. a career bad defensive player (-10 or so) gets less worth from a +10 run season than a career +6 run guy.
- Finally, Beyond the Box Score has got some interesting Pitch f/x leaderboards. Of particular interest to us Marlins fans: Ricky Nolasco is posting the highest SLG against this year, and Josh Johnson is posting the lowest. There's your difference right now.

New Orleans Calas
United States
12 Jun 13
Bess Mucke
When Slow Food USA asked a New Orleans hotel to make calas – traditional sweet fried rice fritters - for their national conference in May, the kitchen had to learn the recipe from scratch. Once a popular street food, over the past two generations calas has almost disappeared from the city. "After World War II, for you to know about calas, you would have to have this as a tradition in your family," says Poppy Tooker of Slow Food New Orleans, one of the chef's driving the revival of this dish that grew out of resourcefulness, using leftover rice.
The history of Calas is very similar to many other traditional New Orleans foods, coming from both African and European heritage. The name is said to have come from the African Nupe word "kara", meaning fried cake. For more than a century Creole street vendors sold the fresh hot calas in the city's French Quarter, with the familiar cry, "Calas, bels calas tout chauds!" (Calas, beautiful calas, still hot"). The street vendors were often called "calas women." These women would sell their pastries in covered baskets or bowls during the early morning in the French Quarter.
Serves 12
2 cups cooked rice
6 tablespoons flour
3 heaping tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash of nutmeg
2 eggs
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Vegetable oil (for deep-frying)
Confectioners' sugar
In a bowl, combine rice, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg; mix well. Add eggs and vanilla and mix well.
Heat vegetable oil for deep-frying to 360 degrees. Carefully drop spoonfuls of the rice mixture into hot oil and fry until golden brown. Remove from oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Serve hot.
Prefer a Savory option? Simply omit the sugar and vanilla and add up to 1/2 cup of whatever savory ingredients you may have on hand, such as thinly sliced green onions and a teaspoon or two of hot sauce or boiled, chopped shrimp or crawfish tails.

PORT ST. LUCIE -- Nobody can predict with any degree of certainty whether Jose Fernandez will be as successful in his second major-league season as he was in his first.
But, so far, he looks no less enthusiastic.
Nobodys ever going to take that away from him, manager Mike Redmond said. Thats the beauty of Jose. Hes like a little kid out there, just having fun.
Giancarlo Stanton now drives a Maserati to work.
Fernandez has been known to pedal there on his bike.
On Wednesday, Fernandez made his second spring start, in a 5-2 victory in 10 innings over the New York Mets, in which he gave up a pair of harmless singles before leaving after 3 1/3 innings.
He said he was so excited to pitch that he had a hard time sleeping the night before.
For a spring training game, mind you.
I went to sleep about 8:30, thinking it was the biggest game of my life, Fernandez said. I kept waking up. I woke up at four in the morning, looked at my phone, and I kept waking up, waiting for the game excited even though I was only throwing three innings.
Some wondered if Fernandez, with a year under his belt, would be any more subdued, patterning himself after most big-league pitchers.
The answer so far is a definite no.
Hes got a year of experience under his belt. But his personality is his personality, and thats what makes him great, Redmond said. Hes got an energy level thats off the charts, and he likes to have fun.
Mere mention of Fernandezs name causes teammates to smile.
Hes a lot like [David] Ortiz as far as personality, said catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia, comparing Fernandez to his former teammate on the Boston Red Sox. What you see is what you get. How he is on the field is how he is off the field. Hes always energetic, having fun.
same approach
Saltalamacchia said he doesnt expect Fernandez to change, either.
Hes young, he said.
But you see a lot of guys like Pedro Martinez, who was young and acted like that. And then, 20 years later, theyre still acting like that. Its good. Its a good personality to have in the clubhouse. You want to have fun. It doesnt need to be serious 100 percent of the time.
Fernandez is not only energetic; hes engaged.
Redmond was watching Tuesdays game on a chair next to the dugout when Fernandez suddenly appeared and sat down next to him.
We had a great conversation, Redmond said, laughing. I think he probably wears out all the guys on the bench, so he comes out and sits with me while were watching the game. But its fun to talk to him because he loves it. He loves the game, and he wants to win.
Redmond doesnt see any roadblocks standing between Fernandez and another outstanding season.
The manager said Fernandez will be forced to make adjustments as hitters get used to him, as all pitchers do.
But the beauty of Jose is that his stuff is so good that hes going to be able to make those adjustments on the fly, just with his stuff, Redmond said.
Fernandez toyed with the Mets, a division rival he expects to face often this season and in the future.
Its good for me to see them, Fernandez said of Wednesdays encounter, and good for them to see me. Thats how I see it.
• When it comes to talking about his former team, Saltalamacchia is no Ian Kinsler, who ripped into the Texas Rangers in a magazine article.
Kinsler, who is now with the Detroit Tigers, was quoted as saying he hopes the Rangers go winless this season and called Texas general manager Jon Daniels a sleazeball.
Joked Saltalamacchia about the Red Sox, who face the Marlins in Jupiter on Thursday: I hope they go 0-162. [Dustin] Pedroias a sleazeball.
Actually, Saltalamacchia is looking forward to seeing his former teammates.
I went through a lot with those guys and still consider all of them my friends, said Saltalamacchia, who left Boston as a free agent to sign a three-year deal with Miami.
Saltalamacchia is also looking forward to receiving his World Series ring as a key member of last years champions.
I know [Red Sox owner] John Henry sent me a letter saying he would look forward to giving it to me in the spring, Saltalamacchia said.
this and that
• Leading pitching prospects Andrew Heaney, Anthony DeSclafani and Justin Nicolino all pitched in a morning B game against the Cardinals on Wednesday.
Reliever Henry Rodriguez pitched a simulated game.
• Henderson Alvarez is set to make his first spring start Friday.
• Redmond said he hopes to get reliever Carlos Marmol into his first spring game over the weekend.
• Former Marlins reliever Brian Sanches announced Wednesday that he is retiring. Sanches appeared in 147 games for the Marlins from 2009 to 11, going 10-5 with a 2.92 ERA.
He last appeared in the majors with Philadelphia in 2012.
Coming up
• Thursday: Marlins RHP Nathan Eovaldi vs. Boston Red Sox RHP Allen Webster, 1:05 p.m., Jupiter.
• Friday: Marlins RHP Henderson Alvarez at St. Louis Cardinals (TBA), 1:05 p.m., Jupiter.

Rolling Village Keeper 13 13
Village Keeper I wont know how this goes together until it gets warmer here in the northest part of the country. The directions that came with th multi-use storge bin were useless. I hope I do not have as much trouble putting these together. I Would be willing to update my reveiw in the Summer to give you a more complete rating. February 7, 2014
Tall Bag This is a great bag. I got all of my villages in this one container plus more. My only complaint is I am short and can't reach the bottom. It would be nice to have a from access to the bottom for us short ones. February 7, 2014
Great product This product was so easy to assemble and such a great idea to store the villages. I have so many houses and this product makes it so easy to store them and move them with ease. I store them in a storage unit and rolling them in and out is a pleasure. It's so much more convenient then storing the boxes in boxes... January 29, 2014
Love It !! I was amazed at how much I could fit in this. I even had room for more stuff. I highly recommend this product for any storage purposes. January 25, 2014

Pasta Fagioli.
A family recipe, with a twist. This was my most requested soup at Kelly's Kitchen. Understandably so. It's perfect for this time of year. Hearty, flavorful, and guaranteed to have you coming back for seconds. I used half chorizo and half hot Italian sausage, for more of a kick.
A few tips for making the ultimate soup:
1. Always make your own stock. — it's so easy, cheaper than boxed, and it actually has flavor. It makes an incredible difference.
2. Always use fresh ingredients. Many people think because it's a soup it's okay to use canned or frozen ingredients. Not the case. The fresher, the better, guaranteed. Especially when it comes to vegetables. If the canned or frozen looks better than fresh, it's probably out of season, and you shouldn't be using it anyway. The same reason we don't eat butternut squash soup in July, and why asparagus is 5 dollars a pound right now.
3. Slow down! Soups don't have to take all day. And yes, if you absolutely must cook a soup in 30 minutes, do what you've gotta do. But take some time, sweat out your aromatics, low and slow, let the flavors seep out. Slowly bring the soup up to a simmer, it holds the integrity of the ingredients, as well as an aid in flavor development and matrimony.
4. Speaking of flavor development, sear any proteins, get a beautiful, golden brown color. This is FLAVOR. Please, I beg of you, don't just toss raw meat into a pot of stock and boil it.. that's just disgusting.
5. Season, everything.. lighter at first, adjust as you go on. Season with more than salt and pepper. Use spices, toast those spices, and grind them yourself.
6. Taste throughout, so you know exactly what you want, and what you don't want. If you taste a tomato soup when you first put it on the stove-top, you'll get straight acid. Once you slowly cook the tomatoes, the acid turns to sugar, giving you a sweeter, more balanced product. You'll know this by tasting, and often.
7. Love your food, and it'll love you back. Be proud of it too! Cause a damn good soup is not as easy as it seems.

Rated 3.1 out of 5 by 716 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Richard58 Points stay Stayed at hotel on points. Room not available on arrival, despite request,(though Hotel was full), but was fresh and bright once inside. amenities for an exec room, a little on the basic side. No cotton buds, shoe cleaning kit, available. Was kept awake by kids in room next door belting out Abba songs late at night and early morning. Could hear a lot of what was being said too in that room. Hotel bar staff friendly and efficient, though a strange (cleaning like) smell lingered in the bar during the time I was there. Internet worked efficiently, though object to having to pay GBP 16 per day for its use. Hotel location good, which is a major plus. February 27, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by LW2013 It's not worth the money spent The front desk didn't well offer the SPG Platinum benefits upon check-in. The room seemed very old, so as the facilities. e.g., the air-con control button was out of order. The toilet flush was out of order too. A worker came for cleaning window at 8am-ish, then followed by housekeeping ring at 8:30am. Not really good timing for guest. August 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by travelfrequent Escellent Service Great guest room; Great Service. Management cares about its guests. August 22, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Zippe10 Great location, a little tired I often stay at this hotel on business as it is in a great location. It has all the facilities you need, but it has to be said that the décor is a little tired, an is in need of a facelift. August 21, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Tom1954 One night on points Room 546 Our stay was on points during the Olympics and we were assigned room 546. The air conditioning worked well... we were actually cool until we turned the thermostat up. There was a large walk in closet. The safe did not seem to work. The bathroom was fine, water pressure and temperature fin. The shower in the bath worked but the space is small (no curved shower curtain... Towel warmer worked. no meals were taken at the hotel. Even though it is on Piccadilly, one can access from Brick Lane. it is about equidistant from Hyde Park Corner and Green Park tube stations. I plan to check in for two nights today, and will try to write a review on this upcoming stay. August 12, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Fenella Excellent position This hotel is in an excellent position for shops tourist spots & theatres etc.But the two entrances are rather confusing, and the back one is better when arriving as reception is there, but the front entrance which probably most people would use is just a vast space, which you then have to walk through the bar area & up steps to find the reception, not good is you are dragging a suitcase, as there is no doorman at the front..... very strange for a hotel of this calibre!! Also no tea and coffee making facilities in the room, and bathroom VERY small.But the staff are lovely and try to be very accommodating.. Breakfast has a good choice of food. Cirtus restaurant not bad, but needs a childrens menu.Also | sent emails with my request for beds in the room, which had not been adhered to , and we had to get them to implement them on our arrival. August 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ladylois55 Could not fault My husband and I stayed for two nights and could not fault our visit to this hotel. Our room was warm and cosy. We had a large marble bathroom and an view of Green Park. All staff we encountered, were helpful and courteous. What more can you ask? August 20, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Kim161 Unimpressed for a SPG property This hotel overall was not worth the money. The breakfast at 25 pounds was terrible and not worth it. we asked for some bread and a drink at the bar because tea and coffee are not in the room they said they would send it up. It took 30 mins and they charged a fee to bring it. The wireless is also not worth the cost and not free anywhere, not even the lobby. The noise traveled throughout and even on the 3rd floor the noise from an event kept us up well into the night. I complained and nothing was done. I was told a manager would contact me and they would give me points to make up for it, still no contact or points have been given, I wil not stay here again. September 27, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Judithecatlady Great location! Our stay at this hotel was very nice. The location on Piccadilly was perfect - we were able to walk to most of the attractions we wanted to see. We really enjoyed afternoon tea, and all of our food and drink experiences were great. The staff was nice and helpful, and our overall experience here was excellent. August 19, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by FrequentTraveller59 Fantastic stay The Hotel is rich in atmosphere, spacious and comfortable suites and helpful staff. Our stay has been wonderful and I any persons of Hotel staff that have taken care of us with kindness, cordiality and competence. Mr Roman ( Reception & Guest Relation Manager) Miss Giovanna (Front Desk & Reception) and Mrs Pot (Restaurant Bracewells ,had a part in making our stay unforgettable. . Thank you very much! August 26, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Darien28 Facilities of this hotel needs improvements There are 2 elevators in the hotel, but apparently one of them has been out of order for a long time such that a metal plaque is permanently displayed by the elevator. This caused a lot of delay to the guests getting to their rooms. This is definitely not a SPG quality hotel. August 18, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by sswan Worst SPG Experience I have ever had After putting me in the smallest room I have ever seen I asked to move to a different hotel. They would not allow me to move without a penalty even though I was going to another SPG location. Instead, they gave me a larger room with a "King Bed"; a king bed is two beds pushed together. Whoever rated this hotel as category 5 is really at fault. Housekeeping slammed every door they opened. October 9, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cr11 Very nice Hotel We stayed at the Hotel the first time and it will not be the last. We had a nice room for three guests and it was big and nice. Some guest say it is old but I guess it depends how you look at it. I think it is old English Charme. We loved the Hotel and would especialy like to thank Richard, Ricky and Antonio for their extensive help. We had a great vacation and will be back. May 8, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by LLIRE Not a good stay I stayed with you on Monday night and the guests in the room beside me had a crying baby who cried solid from 9pm until 1pm and then intermittedly through the nigth and then again in the morning. I spoke t your guest services and initially they told me to wait to see if the crying would stop. When it didn't I called back to see if they could move me and they said the hotel was full and there was no way to move me which was pretty disappointing given that I could not sleep. Also I have stayed with your hotel twcie before and the first time, when i arrived you had no room for me despite the fact that I had a confirmed booking and at midnight moved me to a different hotel which was a 15/20 minute drive away with little apology and little other option. I wanted to flag both these issues as I always stay SPG but your hotel has fell very short of my expectations and I would not like to experience either of those experiences again. Thanks Olivia October 2, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jon1 Fantastic location The hotel was easy to find, just a 5 minute walk from the tube station. The location within London was perfect, just a 5 minute walk through the park to Buckingham Palace. Every member of staff were extremely polite. The room was a decent size and very clean. Good selection within the mini bar and the room service selection. Breakfast was delicious and was served within a fantastic time window. All in all we had a lovely time. If we had to be critical in any way then it would be the lack of communal areas within the hotel for a family with a small child to go. The bar and afternoon tea area wasn't very welcoming. February 16, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Rich2809 Worn out. I did not like this hotel. It is worn out and dated. I had a suite and it reminded me of being in a low rent apartment. Awful. The suite was dim and dingy. It is just too depressing to write about. I did not get my room through price line etc so I paid a lot. Lots of better hotels in the area. Awful March 2, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by JoeNYC Beautiful location, excellent facilities My fiancée and I stayed at the Park Lane following a long week of travels throughout Central Europe and it was PERFECT for 24 hours in London. The hotel is centrally located so we could easily walk to shops, restaurants, Buckingham Palace, parks, etc. Terrific experience, I would highly recommend. May 23, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by unhappyinLondon Not worthy of SPG BRand I foolishly asked my travel agent to book a nice SPG hotel in London without looking at any reviews or details. When I arrived I thought the lobby looked dated and in need of a update. The room was even worse. There was nothing overtly wrong but very worn down and dated i.e from the 80's. I spent five minutes in the room and went back to the front desk to ask for a more up to date room. I was told that all the rooms were that way. I had my travel agent book another hotel and left. I was very disappointed that they did charge me for one night. I am going to be very reluctant to book at a Sheraton again. March 30, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by Chan2312 Very poor The hotel does not befit one with the Sheraton name. The fittings were extremely old, dirty compared to other hotels of this standard and the in room facilities very poor. Two examples are kettles and minibars not provided in the rooms. July 9, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by MKBUK Could have been a great stay... Great upgrade to a studio suite overlooking Green Park and very pleasant staff at check-in. We took advantage of a special offer of 50% off food and beverages on in-room dining and the food was delicious. This stay was all set to get a five-star review, but then... the a/c didn't work and, because the walls lean inwards, the curtains do not hang flush against the windows resulting in lots of light coming in as soon as the sun was up. And when I complained that it was misleading that some of the food and beverages costs were not discounted by 50% -- no exclusions were listed on the offer -- I was told simply that it was not misleading. Clearly I must be stupid to be so misled! April 18, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Chrispie Good front of house, poor standard rooms Although this was a five star hotel, and the facilities and front of house is excellent. The quality and standard of the room and bathroom was poor, I have stayed in local bed and breakfast with much better standards of room October 7, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by LAGal Great customer service I got myself in a pickle and the front desk manager Kia was fantastic. She went beyond the call of duty to help me and for that this hotel has my loyalty. Overall, this is a wonderful place to stay while in London. June 21, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Rennie Room needs an overhaul The room I stayed in was very tired and needed a refurbishment and overhaul. The bathroom looked like it was something straight out of the 50's. The free standing airconditioning unit also cheapened the experience. October 7, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Gigi7 more than what I expected I read some reviews that were not so good but my experience was very satisfactory. I emailed the manager myself and told him I have asthma and what we needed and they gave us an upgraded room for SPG gold member that was beyond what I expected. Very nice, big, clean and have a sofa too. Thanks Kieran for making sure we got the room we needed. All the staff were friendly and met all our needs. The location is excellent. I will for sure use this hotel again if I return to London. June 18, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by FTL2k Great experience I'm a regular at Sheraton Park Lane (over 20 stays so far) and I've decided to write a review that would summarize my experiences here. As mentioned in many reviews here it is true that the hotel is in a perfect location - just few minutes walk from Picadilly Circus, Westminster, Hyde Park, Oxford Street etc. It is placed in an almost 100-year old building, which has both advantages and drawbacks. It is great if you want to experience the old-school London, because all the interiors and rooms in the hotel are arranged to match the 1920's style which makes it pretty unique. On the drawback side - it probably affects things such as heating / air conditioning effectiveness and sound-proofing of the rooms (some of which can get a bit noisy, especially when close to elevator shafts). That said, I have to admit that I've never had any issue if I've found a room not suiting my needs and asked the reception staff to change it. Overall I've had a great experience staying there, with good facilities, attentive and helpful staff (especially front desk) and very good Platinum recognition. April 26, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Ronitli22 Not 5***** not even 4**** Shabby, old and far, no internet for free. Checkin was too long, although very friendly. No coffee or tea availability in the room Will not recommend it, December 11, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Makeuptiffy Perfect location and feels like London should The hotel is charming and beautiful. It's close to everything but not crowded or over stimulating. I loved it. I would and will go back as soon as possible! November 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by OMJ59 Great location, great hotel. I was a bit concerned reading previous reviews of the hotel. The concern was completely uncalled for as the hotel and our rooms were excellent. The hotel is an older hotel and the rooms have the flavor of the era in which it was constructed, with many modern updates. The location was fantastic as we were walking distance from the Green Park underground station which connects one anywhere in London. Buckingham Palace was a short (5 minute) walk through Green Park, and we were fortunate to be in London for the birth of Prince George Alexander Louis. Needless to say, being so close to the palace was a plus. The shops of Oxford Street and Bond street were also a short 5 minute walk, as well as Piccadilly Square and Trafalgar Square-10 minutes away. Harrods was also a quick 10 minute walk. Everything was basically at our doorstep. The staff was extremely attentive to our needs, and Stuart at the concierge desk assisted us in a number of tours during our stay and is to be commended for his efforts. To sum up, my family and I were very pleased with our stay and look forward to staying at the Sheraton Park Lane when we next visit London. July 29, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Lupin52 Could do better We were impressed by the location - a good central position. We liked: positive check-in experience warm room clean room very comfortable bed efficient check-out we didn't like the aged decor and furniture ( we had 2 large tables in our small room) the large air-conditioning unit taking up even more space no complimentary water in the room expensive wi-fi charges no tea and coffee-making equipment in the room breakfast hot buffet - leathery bacon, pale sausages, tasteless mushrooms and soggy hash browns and why doesn't the hotel have an egg chef? We had a good weekend but aren't sure that we would choose to stay in the Park Lane Hotel again unless improvements are made. January 25, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by ErickWa Great stay at the Park Lane London Ideal location in central London and on the Tube from Heathrow, great prices, wonderful service - will definitely visit again November 14, 2013

The Secret Theatre presents Princess Particular, a new children's musical. The spirited and feisty young princess is used to getting what she wants, when she wants it. And today she wants to be a ballerina. King Loadsadough and Queen Bea are way too distracted to deal with such trivialities. Fortunately, her four maids and the Chancellor and Lady in Waiting are on hand to help make the royal fussbudget's dream come true! With lots of fun tunes and hilariously broad physical comedy, this delightful new show by Richard Mazda is great for the whole family. Learn More
