- Almost GreatOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 9/20/2014Our family dined at Fleming's during the Northside Nights event. We dine at the restaurant outside of events as well. The service and food are generally great. It feels that the quality of items on the event menu is subpar. One of our party's filet was undercooked. We did appreciate the server having us cut into our steaks to ensure they are cooked properly. The manager brought her a new one that this time was cooked correctly but burnt on the outside. It was shocking he even allowed that steak to come to a customer's table, because it did not represent fine dining quality. Our side of potatoes was burnt as well. Perhaps they feel they can slack on the less expensive event menus. Generally good food, but this experience was disappointing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not up to the usualOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 9/19/2014We visited Flemings for the Northside Nights, but found it was busy, noisy and the service was slow. We had to ask for the Northside nights menu, ask for bread, which had been changed to a flatbread that was horrible, and ask twice for things we needed. Not at all up to my last experience there.Special Features:
- Fast, Friendly, AccommodatingTCunninghamDined on 9/19/2014I took my wife there for her birthday. Everything was perfect, including the drinks that were brought out to our table just as we sat down, as I had specially requested. The food was amazing, the service was prompt and friendly, and the atmosphere was perfect. We will dine here again!Special Features:
- Nice ExperienceFoodielifeDined on 9/19/2014Flemmings is definitely a place that I want to visit again. I will not get the scallops as they were bland and full of sand. I thought it was amazing that the maître d gave us the best table in the house. It was such a nice treat! This will be a nice "special occasion" place to go from time to time.Special Features:
- A Celebration DestinationSuziDanDined on 9/17/2014Fleming's is a wonderful place for an intimate celebration. The staff were all very attentive without hovering. The wine list is extensive and our server, Tom, was very knowledgeable. We had a mix up with one entree, but they quickly corrected the mistake and were most generous in making up for it. A strong recomendation!Special Features:
- Great experienceThanksDined on 9/17/2014My 3 year old chooses Flemings as her "reward" restaurant. Everytime I have taken her there the staff is extremely welcoming and make us feel special. The food is always delicious, have never waited to be seated, highly recommend!Special Features:
- Very Enjoyableqp10zmDined on 9/13/2014Food was great. Service was fast, friendly and very attentive. Love the homemade whip cream that comes with desert!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Quality, friendly service & a saveHomerDined on 9/6/2014I love the steaks here, and we got a $30 gift card in the mail so I figured it would be a good place for a date night. We ordered a bottle of wine & the mushroom ravioli appetizer which was very nice and the right amount. Bread is crispy and delicious. Wine was perfect & not too pricey. I ordered my steak "iron crusted" at the suggestion of the waiter and it was perfectly cooked. My wife's filet was ordered medium and was over-cooked. We mentioned it to the waiter when he came to check on us and it was remedied without question and a perfectly done steak was delivered to us promptly. Management was gracious and accommodating, and gave our $30 gift card back to us to use at another occasion. Very nice experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great experienceBudlongBlast17513Dined on 8/30/2014Our server was attentive and provided a relaxing dining experience. Everyone complimented their food choices. There was one prime rib serving that was tough. If I had known about the prime rib prior to leaving, we would have mentioned it to the server/manager.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Enjoyfood333VIPDined on 8/23/2014It took them 30 minutes after our reservation time to seat us. The wine list is atrociously over priced.
- MJOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 8/23/2014Had another great meal at Fleming's with a group of friends. Our server was great and the food was perfectly prepared.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great ServiceJackieCBDined on 8/22/2014Fleming's was a breathe of fresh air after many bad service experiences in the past few months. Our waitress was very professional and knowledgeable, our water glasses were refilled after almost every drink, and we were checked on by who I assume was the manager several times as well. The calamari we ordered was very tasty, and the lava cake fulfilled my chocolate craving for days. We were impressed when my husband's manhattan was stirred at the table, and, being pregnant, I was happy to find two non-alcoholic cocktails on the menu. I ordered the cucumber one and it was very tasty.
- ExcellentOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 8/22/2014With Prime steak you cannot go wrong and Flemings always has Top notch service to go along with the excellent food.....wines by the glass or bottle are also a plus with their selection.Special Features:
- wineVIPDined on 8/17/2014The wine list not what it is set up to be. They give you this Ipad with all the wines listed and they never have what is listed. This happens everytime we go.
- Great Service & Flemming's PotatoClarkDined on 8/16/2014My husband and I visited. He had the largest filet and it looked and tasted amazing. I tried the Newport Filet and was a bit disappointed in my steak--it was dry around the edges and didn't seem to be a good cut in general. (I have eaten the Newport months earlier and been pleased with it.) The Flemming's potatoes I had for a side though were delicious! They were a perfect balance between cheese and potato with a hint of jalapeno. The baked potato my husband had as a side was large and brimming with all the trimmings. We probably could have split the potato if we wanted a light meal. Our waitress was great--attentive and nice. We didn't have long waits for anything.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 8/14/2014I have never been disappointed with Fleming's Steakhouse. The wine recommendation from our server was spot on for the meal that we ordered.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Super Food, Outstanding ServiceJb53Dined on 8/12/2014The staff was outstanding from the servers, the manager and the owner. We'd definitely go back for our special occasions.Special Features:
- Upscale SteakhouseFoodlover1Dined on 8/9/2014Arrived promptly at 7:30, however wait to be seated approximate 10 minutes, many tables were empty. The food is excellent, my med-rare petite filet, 8 oz, was cooked perfectly and was delicious; very, very tender. My guest petite filet was over cooked for medium and dry. We did not return the steak, since it takes time to start from scratch with a meat that is over cooked. the wine selection was very good, even though pricey. Creme Brûlée was excellent way to end evening. We shared a salad to start and shared a dessert to finish, had 1 glass wine each with our entrees. The total cost is what is expected for a special occasion, plus for a special event you get a box of truffles with a $25 gift card which almost paid the gratuity.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Flemings - A great mealCICIBlankDined on 7/30/2014The steaks are always prepared perfectly. The service is impeccable. Flemings is never dissapointing. You will be able to relax, converse, and endulge.Special Features:
- Top-NotchJL24Dined on 7/19/2014Took wife there for her birthday. Service was amazing! Ask for Rachel, she is friendly, knowledgeable...just an all around great server. Wine list is huge! I started out with the bread and their blue cheese and tomato garlic butter...AMAZING! Wife started with shrimp cocktail and ceasar salad, she really enjoyed both. She had crab legs for dinner...really enjoyed them. I had the the dry-aged ribeye.....This steak was so good! The nuttiness from the dry-aging, the hard sear they put on it makes an excellent crust and it was cooked to a perfect medium rare. For desert we had creme brulee with chantilly cream....which is the best homeade whipped cream I've ever had. We will definately be going back! Highy reccomended.Special Features:
- Happy Birthday to MESuestewDined on 7/11/2014I went to Flemings with my husband, son, and parents. Our waitress was informative, friendly, and professional. We all had steaks which were flavorful and cooked correctly. There is quite a bit of cracked pepper on them which I would have preferred not to have (I'm not a pepper fan). We also ordered onion rings and garlic mashed potatoes to share. The rings were VERY good, the potatoes okay. The portion sizes on the sides are not as large as you might find at other high end restaurants. The manager came over to wish me a happy birthday and I received a box of 4 truffles and a $25 gift card to use on our next visit. That was a classy treat. All in all, a nice evening.Special Features:
- Prime Rib SpecialOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 7/7/2014The prime rib special is a great deal, it was very good although a little too done for medium rare for me. My favorite at Fleming's is their filet - it is the best.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Anniversary dinnerNd2374Dined on 7/6/2014Excellent restuarant and service! We had a nice evening on our anniversary.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great placeOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 6/25/2014We've been there for a birthday celebration and now our anniversary. The service is great - a great place for a special occasion. Cost is pretty high, but, being a special occasion, we weren't looking for a "cost-effective" meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great RestautantMarcusDined on 6/21/2014One of the best steaks I've ever had. We celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary and we picked the ideal restaurant.Special Features:
- ServiceHappygirlDined on 6/21/2014Trying to decide between two bottles of wine and asked for taste. First one was not to liking and when asked to sample second .. We got it but barely a swallow and sever mentioned bartender didn't like that and he really should charge us for sample... Didn't really care for sever he had kind of a cocky attitude. Bread was great as was rest of food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Quite Pricey!Kimmie28VIPDined on 6/15/2014Had a Father's Day dinner at Flemings on a Sunday to enjoy the prime rib dinner special. Although it seems like a great deal, the price really jumps when you add in some wine and cocktails and your children order off the small plate menu. I was quite shocked at our bill. My biggest complaint is that there are no items on the menu that are inexpensive in comparison to everything else. We eat at Eddie Merlot's all the time and at least they have some burgers and flatbreads that are great choices for children and you don't feel like you're spending a ton of money. The food was good but felt like I paid way too much for what I got. I'll just stick with my favorite steak houses from now on.Special Features:
- eat1VIPDined on 6/6/2014Don't get the crab cakes. They came cold and the sauce is bad.
- The following 332 reviews are from the Fleming's Steakhouse - Indianapolis reviews archive.
- yugseyDined on 5/24/2014We ordered the 29.95 prime rib dinner. Excellent price for all you receive. Each of us got a choice of salad, a full side and a full dessert. The prime rib was a perfect size, not a small piece. Oscar, our waiter was truly excellent in all aspects. Service in all ways was excellent. We have been to Flemings many times and never been disappointed.Special Features:
- Hop760VIPDined on 5/24/2014Food was very good....Bone-In Ribeye was awesome. Service was top notch. Great Team.Special Features:
- Overwhelming bill underwhelming expCurtMDined on 5/23/2014Credit where it's due, our server, Roxanne, was nothing short of outstanding. Otherwise, I would have preferred Texas Roadhouse. We and a couple friends enjoy dinner at an upscale restaurant a couple time a month but this will not be a repeat. Some of the seasonings used on the steaks and the sides were unusual and unnecessary. two steaks were overdone. On the brighter side, the sourdough bread and the desserts were very good.Special Features:
- great meal for a special occasionHungry317Dined on 5/19/2014My husband and I went for a nice dinner on our anniversary week. Food was excellent and our server Roxy was awesome. It was my husband's first time and it didn't disappoint. The cheesy potatoes are my personal favorite and my husband loved the carrot cake and he is a carrot cake snob.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Terrific servicegrizDined on 5/17/2014Once again we had a great dinner at Fleming's and the service was perfect. We had paid our bill and were chatting at the table when a manager came to us with a dessert tray that was an extra. Although we declined he insisted on our having it. Four terrific desserts for free! Stayed and ordered another bottle of wine and left a hefty tip for the kind gesture.Special Features:
- Mothers Day GemOpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 5/11/2014On "busy" restaurant days you expect to be rushed or delayed. No delay, great unrushed service. The food was great. Could not have asked for more.Special Features:
- Flemings deliveredTJeatsVIPDined on 5/10/2014Flemings met all of our expectations. They handled our reservation professionally, the dining room was nice, service was top notch, and the food was executed properly. They hit top notch in every category. I will visit again for sure.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- excellent food, great serviceterrys50Dined on 5/10/2014Ex ellent food great service. .very expensive. When you pay $50 for a steak you should not have to pay an extra $10 for potatoes and an extra $10 for vegetables.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Was Expecting BetterseafoodloverDined on 5/10/2014Party of three on Saturday night before 2014 Mothers Day. The noise level was too high to have a decent conversation. The waiter was not up to par for this type of eatery. He did not ask us for a drink refills(wine by the glass). The small plate scallops arrived cold. When I mentioned this to him the plate was removed and returned very hot. As a result the scallops were overcooked and chewy. They should have started over instead of reheating them - poor culinary technique! The other two guests meals were OK. This is my second trip to Flemings. The previous visit had inattentive waiter issues ( he also functioned as the parking valet). I won't be returning to Flemings nor would I recommend it to others.
- SamiamDined on 5/10/2014For the extreme prices, the steak was not very good. Under seasoned. The Fleming salad was $9, all sides $8-$10 each. This restaurant is over priced for everything.Special Features:
- Just slightly a missCoronaDined on 4/27/2014Always a wonderful place to dine, meat cooked spot on every time. Just have had two misses with the Lava cake being over cooked. They were attentive to the situation when we told them, just disappointing because personally I look forward to it more than the steak most nights! We will be back of course, just might order my dessert med rare as well as my meat! :)Special Features:

Local pilot to make commemorative flight to Russia
By Jack Kintner
Blaine native and aviation enthusiast Jeff Geer plans to commemorate the WWII Lend Lease program by flying an open cockpit biplane 6,000 miles from here to Russia and back next summer.
The aircraft is old – it's a Stearman PT 13D built 65 years ago at the Boeing aircraft plant in Wichita, Kansas – but there's a modern touch.
Onboard satellite communications will allow middle and high school students to track his progress. Some will even be able to make the flight along with Geer using a Microsoft Flight Simulator whose instrument panel readings and terrain display will mimic those Geer sees in real time.
The access that this technology provides give the expedition an educational side.
Geer is developing math, science, history and even music curricula based on the trip with educators from the Mossyrock, Washington school district. Once developed, materials will be made available for free to other districts who want to integrate it into their classroom studies.
He said that once he gets to Russia he's been advised to "crate the thing up and ship it home" but he instead hopes to be able to fly it all the way back, modifying his route at the end to make his last Canadian stop at the Abbotsford Airshow.
Geer said that his flight path will commemorate the northern or Alaska to Siberia (ALSIB) route over which bomber, fighter and transport aircraft were delivered to the Russian allies during WWII. It runs from Great Falls, Montana, the staging base for the Lend Lease flights, north to Alberta and into northern B.C. along the Alaska Highway to the Yukon, Fairbanks, Nome and ultimately to Provideniya, Russia.
The last leg, a 255-mile route from Nome to Provideniya, is designated Air Route B-369 (BRAVO-369) and is also the name Geer chose for his non-profit foundation that's sponsoring the trip. After crossing the International Date Line in the middle of the Bering Sea, he will then be the first pilot to have flown on this route to Provideniya from the lower 48 States in a Stearman. His impressively informative website is www.bravo369.org
Significantly, most of the pilots in the Air Transport Command who ferried over 15,000 airplanes to Russia alone during WWII also flew Stearmans identical to Geer's as their first or primary military trainer. The airplane's 225 horsepower 9-cylinder Lycoming radial engine gives it a cruise speed of about 105 mph.
In WWII the ALSIB route ran northwest from Great Falls, Montana, to Fairbanks, where the Russian pilots took over. It was developed in 1942 when the earlier supply routes that used surface ship transport or flew east through the heat and dust of North Africa proved either too dangerous or too damaging to the aircraft.
Geer's website says that before aircraft and defense materials could be ferried to Alaska, roads and intermediate airfields had to be built. Over 10,000 U.S. Army officers and men and 2,000 U.S. Public Roads Administration civilians, working under Northwest Service Command (NWSC), completed the project in six months. The Alcan Highway was officially opened on November 20, 1942, by which time the delivery route was already up and operational.
Geer, 50, is a 1977 Blaine high school graduate and currently works as a telecommunications engineer for Motorola.

New London — As promised, the city is fighting an order by the state Board of Mediation and Arbitration to rehire fired Police Officer Thomas Northup.
The city has filed an application asking the court to throw out the decision, which said the city did not have just cause to terminate Northup for use of excessive and unreasonable force when he shot and wounded the unarmed driver of a stolen ice truck on Aug. 24, 2011.
The Board of Mediation and Arbitration said the city had not presented credible evidence to establish that Northup's action "was not objectively reasonable or that it was excessive." The city's decision to fire Northup on March 22, 2012, came after the New London County State's Attorney's Office concluded Northup's actions did not violate the law.
In the appeal of the decision, filed on Nov. 21, the city claims "The arbitrators were guilty of misconduct by refusing to hear evidence pertinent and material to the controversy or by other actions by which the rights of the City of New London have been prejudiced."
The city also claims the arbitrators exceeded their powers, or "imperfectly executed them" and the decision "is contrary to public policy."
No explanation or specific examples of the city's claims are outlined in the documents filed in New London Superior Court. Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio, who fired Northup, declined comment citing the pending litigation.
A hearing on the matter is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. on Dec. 23 in New London Superior Court.

World's only New York sports recap show with its roots in Talmud-Torah
NEW YORK CITY, July 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Sportz Schmooze, the world's only "sports show with kishkes," has launched on YouTube as an ongoing sports highlight and review program covering teams and players from the greater New York area. And you don't have to be Jewish to enjoy the show's chutzpah-laden Yiddishe take on the New York sports scene.
Daily, Orthodox hosts Yossi, Walter and Moshe offer their unique perspectives on the Giants, Jets, Knicks, Nets, Rangers, Islanders, Yankees and Mets. Bottom line: These guys really know their stuff! All those years of learning Torah and Talmud equip the threesome with the super-human acuity of sports computers! Aside from delivering an endless stream of sports trivia, the zesty repartee alone is worth regular visits to their YouTube channel.
Moshe Kravitsky, who specializes in solo stream-of-consciousness commentary and man-on-the-street interviews, brings an irresistible zaniness to the program. Think Woody Allen meets Robin Williams…both wearing black hats, beards and tzitzis (trust me, you don't even need to know what that means to dig this show!)
Sportz Schmooze is the brainchild of Jerusalem-based media company O2T (On Second Thought), founded by Gedaliah Gurfein and Cathy Lawrence, two seasoned veterans in the entertainment industry. Gurfein is former Director of Creative Development at IDT Entertainment; Lawrence was at Walt Disney Company, 20th Century Fox, Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros.
"You know the joke: If they were going to have a Hall of Fame for Jewish sports stars, it would be as crowded as the North Pole," says Gurfein. "However, Jewish sports fans? None can compare in terms of knowledge, dedication, and passion! There's nothing on the air like Sportz Schmooze and that's why we anticipate a huge following in the Jewish community and far beyond."
For a taste, check out the Sportz Schmooze sizzle reel-at the top of their YouTube page-featuring New York Giants' great Leonard Marshall, who schmoozes football sports with the guys over kosher deli and his first bialy. Also, see Moshe's roving riffs and L'Chaims at the 3rd Annual Whisky Jewbilee charity event at Studio 450.
Fans can watch Sportz Schmooze on their YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/user/SportzSchmooze; connect with other Schmoozers on Facebook: www.Facebook.com/SportzSchmooze; on Twitter: www.Twitter.com/SportzSchmooze; and on: www.Instagram.com/SportzSchmooze.

LEWISTON, Idaho -- Lewiston Police arrested a man they said tried to strangle a woman after she mistakenly referred to him by the name of her ex-boyfriend.
On Tuesday, officers responded to a domestic dispute call.
Authorities said the incident started at a home in the 400 block of 12th Street, where 25-year-old Chad. C. Bradley suffered a couple of stab wounds in his arm.
A witness told police Bradley and a 28-year-old woman were drinking for much of the day and arguing off and on when the woman called Bradley the wrong name.
The argument became physical and Bradley tried to strangle the woman, police said.
Authorities said the fight moved to the kitchen, and the woman was able to grab a knife and stab Bradley in the arm. The witness called police.
Bradley was treated for two stab wounds at St. Joseph Regional Medical Center. After interviewing Bradley, police arrested him.
He was booked into the Nez Perce County Jail on a Felony Attempted Strangulation charge.


text: Celebrating Canada Day, the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 4-1 Tuesday at Rogers Centre in Toronto. Drew Hutchison and the Blue Jay bullpen held the Brewers to just four hits. Hutchison worked seven innings, allowing three with 10 strikeouts. Ryan Braun produced the only run with an RBI double in the 5th. Marco Estrada took the loss, going six innings, allowing two runs on six hits. Both runs came via the long ball. Jose Bautista returned from two weeks on the disabled list with a first inning solo shot. Colby Rasmus hit a solo homer in the 4th. Rob Wooten gave up the final two runs on three hits in the bottom of the 8th. Milwaukee (51-34) still leads the division by six and a half games and they'll try to avoid their first sweep of the year, finishing the two game set Wednesday afternoon with Wily Peralta facing J.A. Happ. Pre-game coverage begins at 11:00 AM on WTAQ.

by Tony Gillam, 120 pp. Your opponent's King is more vulnerable to attack while it remains in the center of the board, hence the early castling to remove the King to a safer position. But conditions during the early moves often precludes castling, and proper early development of one's pieces can provide the strength to take advantage of the weaker King position. Here are 141 games illustrating attacks against such a King, with numerous diagrams to assist in following the attacking moves. The notes clearly explain the flow of the attack for the developing player. The author emphasizes the message to enjoy yourself! A quick attack against the opponent's King is a source of constant enjoyment, and here are the ways to accomplish this.

- Better than ever1toughladyVIPDined on 9/11/2014This is far from my first time at Eddie V's, but I hadn't been in six months or so--and it was even better. The service this time was nothing short of incredible, and my grouper and my husband's swordfish were absolutely delicious. Not cheap, but worth every penny, and it won't be six months before I go back again.Special Features:
- The forgotten deuce.DatenightsVIPDined on 9/7/2014We were sat... And waited...and waited, (many white coats walked by and ignored us) finally the host that sat us asked a server to greet us. She (blonde short hair)brought dinner menus... But no cocktail list so we had to wait for that. Came over with a pitcher of ice water (why would you do that? try to upsell!) & asked what type of water we wanted.. We said sparkling.. She gave us option of Panna or Pelligrino.. Pretty sure panna is still water by Pelligrino. Finally Yolanda came by to say she was taking care of us with 2 other servers (never introduced themselves) When asked about ingredients in items (clam chowder) she didn't know. By that time we were ready to order. Our apps came out before our drinks. She was nice but service was bad

The new Range Rover Evoque has caught lots of attention lately. And when it takes about tuning packages we have seen a lot. Today we add another one: it comes from the German specialist Arden and includes a few exterior updates plus an extra 30 HP under the hood.
The tuner is offering the car a more sporty and elegant appearance thanks to a new handmade stainless steel mesh grills with an exclusive Arden mesh structure. The car's ride has been lowered by 30 mm thanks to the addition of new custom springs and new wheel spacers. Of course that the usual illuminated side pipes couldn't miss. At the rear the car has received a specially developed stainless steel exhaust system.
All these exterior changes can be combined with a few changes made under the hood. Arden has focused on the 2.2 liter diesel engines, which has received an additional ECU for up to 30 hp and 50 Nm.

We have moments of basic non-aggression and freshness...it is worthwhile to take advantage of these moments...we have an actual connection to reality that can wake us up and make us feel basically, fundamentally good."

Comments about Foxy Roxy Adult Women's Costume:
Within 15 minutes of wearing this costume my tail fell off, it was sewn on, not sure how someone could sew something so poorly, now I have to sew it back on, my ears are slightly different sizes and don't look as big as they did on the model, also they are floppy and not standing up, so I had to cut open the stitching and put pipe cleaners inside them to make the ears stand up.
After making these adjustments, I love this costume!
The big fuzzy tail is my favorite part :)

Comments about Foxy Roxy Adult Women's Costume:
I was running out of time when we had a quick costume idea change. After looking up tails and ears seperately to make my *own* fox, I stumbled across this. And the reason I bought it was for the tail alone. I'm wearing it for the first time today and have received a lot of compliments, but I will detach the tail from this costume and make my own in the future. The tail comes with a huge safety pin which is nice but would have prefered the tail sewed on... Due to the safety pin, I have tons of holes in the back of this dress (if you even want to call it that :D). I hate the ears though :( They do not look as cute as they do on the model. Overall, I'm satisfied with the color and the tail. And it's not as short as it seems in the photo but is STILL pretty short. I paired it with black pants and love it. It seems like a long, tight tunic and is perfect for what I needed it for. However, I almost wish I went the other route in buying the tail and ears seperately and finding an orange dress.

Comments about Foxy Roxy Adult Women's Costume:
Thought this was going to be a cute fun outfit but I got it and it didn't fit right the length went almost to my knees, one of the ears were shaped weird, and the tail was held up by a giant safety pin also the color is not the orange as shown its more if a brownish. I even let a friend who's built differently try it and she said it fit her real awkward as well.

Visiting Fellows Program
The objective of the Starr Cancer Consortium Visiting Fellows Program is to advance the goals of the Consortium by helping post-doctoral fellows and students share and expand their scientific expertise and experience thereby furthering collaborative efforts among the SCC institutions. The Program gives post-doctoral fellows and students at SCC institutions opportunities to spend time in a laboratory at one of the other SCC institutions. The training and research undertaken by the Fellows in their recipient laboratories should be plausibly related to cancer but does not need to be in a pre-existing SCC-funded project.
Visits of 1 week to 3 months duration.
Post-doctoral fellows and students working in a laboratory at one of the five SCC institutions are eligible to apply1. The recipient laboratory must be at a SCC institution2, but cannot be at the applicant's home institution. The applicant's home laboratory and the recipient laboratory must have an ongoing collaboration, however, a pre-existing SCC-funded project is not required. Approval for the visiting fellowship is required from both the director of the applicant's home laboratory and the director of the recipient laboratory prior to application submission.
1 In the case of the Broad Institute, post-doctoral fellows and students working in the laboratories of senior staff, core and associate members are eligible to apply.
2 In the case of the Broad Institute, laboratories of senior staff, core and associate members can be recipient laboratories.
The fellowship covers reasonable travel and housing costs for Fellows whose recipient laboratory is in a different city from their home institution. It is the Fellow's responsibility to arrange his/her housing.
Supply funds will be provided to support laboratory costs in the recipient laboratory, pro-rated by time at $650 per week. Supply funds will not be provided if the training and research undertaken in the recipient laboratory is part of an ongoing SCC-funded project.
The policies and procedures of the recipient laboratory's institution will apply during the fellowship.
Applicants must prepare a short application using the Visiting Fellows Program application template. Applicants should contact the Program's point of contact at the recipient institution for guidance on pre- and post-award logistics.
The application includes:
- Description of applicant's current research
- Description of the ongoing collaboration between the applicant's home and recipient laboratories
- Description of topic and scope of the training and/or research to be undertaken in the recipient laboratory
- Explanation of how the fellowship will further the goals of the SCC

Bob Betz is owner/winemaker of Betz Family Winery. His passion for wine was fueled by a year in the vineyards and cellars of Western Europe in the early 1970s, where his focus on the basics of grape growing and winemaking laid a foundation for the following decades in the Washington wine industry.
After returning to Seattle in the mid 1970s Bob joined Chateau Ste. Michelle. During nearly three decades there Bob was part of the emergence of Washington winemaking, working to make this new viticultural area become a reality.
Bob holds a Master of Wine (MW) degree from the Institute of Masters of Wine in London.
In 1997 Bob and his wife started Betz Family Winery, focused on red varieties from the Columbia Valley. Working with specific vineyards and growers in selected climate and soil sites, Bob began to craft Bordeaux and Rhone-variety wines. With defined vineyards strategies, precise cellar protocol and limited case production, Bob has made wines that reflect the diligence that a small producer can bring to making fine wine.

CS-CASH Outreach
The CS-CASH Outreach Program is designed to develop and implement model and innovative educational, and intervention programs promoting agricultural health and safety for agricultural workers and their families.
The CS-CASH Outreach program has focused its work in year one on creating and distributing educational materials related to increasing the understanding of lung problems caused by agricultural dusts and promoting the use of personal protective equipment (masks and respiratory systems) in dusty work environments. Using social marketing strategies, we have designed flyers aimed particularly at corn and soybean growers that promote the use of masks and have distributed them electronically via e-mail to over 14,000 farmers and ranchers.
|Respiratory Protection Flyers
|Save Your Breath Flyer
|Aflatoxin Flyer
|Hearing Protection Flyers
|You Are Going to Miss It! Flyer
|How Loud is Too Loud? Flyer
In 2013 flyers, technical brochures, sample PPE and respiratory storage bags for masks were distributed at 13 agricultural shows and exhibits in 8 states. In collaboration with AgriSafe Network we have also created four short videos now available on You Tube that give practical advice about selecting the right mask for the right job, getting the right fit and how to properly care for masks. These videos were distributed to producers via e-mail and available via links on the CS-CASH website.
|FFA students with respiratory protection storage bags at Husker Harvest Days
We have created the CS-CASH Community Contact Network (CCN) of public health, extension, agribusiness, producer and grass-roots organizations and individuals with an interest in promoting agricultural health and safety. The CCN serves as a portal for getting educational materials and updates on emerging issues into the community and currently has over 900 contacts. We utilized out CCN to address an important issue this fall harvest season when, in collaboration with AgriSafe Network, Iowa Center for Agricultural Safety and Health and the Great Plains Center for Agricultural Health, we created and distributed information related to potential dangers with aflatoxin in harvest dusts.

Gay panic defense
|Part of a series on
|Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights
|LGBT portal
The gay panic defense[1] is a legal defense, usually against charges of assault or murder.[2] A defendant using the defense claims that they acted in a state of violent temporary insanity because of a little-known psychiatric condition called homosexual panic.[3] Trans panic is a similar defense applied towards cases where the victim is a transgender or intersex person. This defense often fails, and has been ruled inadmissible in many jurisdictions[4][5] because of a complete lack of scientific research to support it.
In the gay panic defense, the defendant claims that they have been the object of homosexual romantic or sexual advances. The defendant finds the advances so offensive and frightening that it brings on a psychotic state characterized by unusual violence.
Guidance given to counsel by the Crown Prosecution Service of England and Wales states: "The fact that the victim made a sexual advance on the defendant does not, of itself, automatically provide the defendant with a defence of self-defence for the actions that they then take." In the UK it has been known for decades as the "Portsmouth defence"[6][7][8] or the "guardsman's defence"[9] (the latter term was used in an episode of Rumpole of the Bailey made in 1980). In Australia, it is known as the homosexual advance defence (HAD) strategy.[10][11] "The homosexual advance defence cannot be found anywhere in (the Australian Criminal Codes) legislation, its entrenchment in case law gives it the force of law".[12] "Several Australian states and territories have either abolished the umbrella defence of provocation entirely or excluded non-violent homosexual advances from its ambit. Of those that have abolished provocation entirely, Tasmania was the first to do so in 2003".[12]
Uses of the gay panic defense[edit]
New Zealand[edit]
- In 2003, a gay interior designer and former television host, David McNee, was killed[13] by a homeless drug user and part-time sex worker, Phillip Layton Edwards. Edwards said at his trial that he told McNee he was not gay, but would masturbate in front of him on a "no-touch" basis for money. The defense successfully argued that Edwards, who had 56 previous convictions and had been on parole for 11 days, was provoked into beating McNee after he violated their "no touching" agreement. Edwards was jailed for nine years for manslaughter.[14][15]
- In July 2009, Ferdinand Ambach, 32, a Hungarian tourist, was convicted of killing Ronald Brown, 69, by hitting him with a banjo and shoving the instrument's neck down Brown's throat. Ambach was initially charged with murder, but the charge was downgraded to manslaughter after Ambach's lawyer successfully invoked the gay panic defense.[16][17]
- On November 26, 2009, the New Zealand Parliament voted to abolish Section 169 of the Crimes Act 1961, removing the provocation defence from New Zealand law, although it was argued by some that this change was more a result of the failed provocation defence in the Sophie Elliott murder trial by her ex-boyfriend.[18]
United States[edit]
- In 1987, Joseph Mitchell Parsons, who called himself the "Rainbow Warrior,"[19] claimed that he killed Richard Lynn Ernest to defend against a homosexual advance, but was unable to present any evidence at trial to support this claim.[20] The victim's family and friends stated in court that Ernest was not gay or bisexual.[21] Prosecution witnesses testified of Parsons' homosexual activity in jail.[22] A forensic psychiatrist from the University of Utah stated that the descriptions of Parsons' sexual history indicated that he "may have been the one initiating the contact and became angry when [Ernest] turned him down."[23] Parsons was executed by lethal injection at Utah State Prison in October 1999.[19]
- In 1995, one of the highest-profile cases to make use of the gay panic defense was the Michigan trial of Jonathan Schmitz, who killed his friend Scott Amedure after learning, during a taping of The Jenny Jones Show, that Amedure was sexually attracted to him. Schmitz confessed to committing the crime but claimed that Amedure's homosexual overtures angered and humiliated him. Legally, this defense had a very weak standing for him, since in cases of legal provocation providing for diminished capacity, it is required to have an immediate response. Since he had not acted until three days after the incident, legally, he failed to show any panic-based violent psychosis. He was convicted of second-degree murder and sentenced to 25 to 50 years in prison.
- In the 1998 murder of university student Matthew Shepard, the defendants claimed in court that the young man's homosexual proposition enraged them to the point of murder. However, Judge Barton Voigt barred this strategy, saying that it was "in effect, either a temporary insanity defense or a diminished capacity defense, such as irresistible impulse, which are not allowed in Wyoming, because they do not fit within the statutory insanity defense construct." After their conviction, Shepard's attackers recanted their story in a 20/20 interview with Elizabeth Vargas, saying that the murder was a robbery attempt gone awry under the influence of drugs. This claim was denied by the defendants' girlfriends.
- A transgender variation of the gay panic defense was also used in 2004–2005 in California by the three defendants in the Gwen Araujo homicide case, who claimed that they were enraged by the discovery that Araujo, a transgender teenager with whom they had engaged in sex, had male genitalia. The first trial resulted in a jury deadlock; in the second, defendants Mike Magidson and Jose Merél were convicted of second-degree murder, while the jury again deadlocked in the case of Jason Cazares. Cazares later entered a plea of no contest to charges of voluntary manslaughter.
- In 2010, Vincent James McGee was charged with capital murder for stabbing and killing white supremacist Richard Barrett in Mississippi.[24] McGee claimed that Barrett had dropped his pants and asked McGee to perform a sexual act on him, sending McGee into a panic.[25] McGee pleaded guilty to manslaughter, arson, and burglary on July 28, 2011. He was sentenced to 20 years on the manslaughter charge, 20 years on the arson charge and 25 years on the burglary charge; 65 years in total.

Michigan State Boils Purdue 52-14
Sedrick Irvin set a freshman school record with four touchdowns and Chris Gardner kicked three field goals to lead Michigan State to a 52-14 rout of Purdue in the season opener for the Big 10 teams.
Irvin, a cousin of Dallas Cowboys All-Pro receiver Michael Irvin, caught a 12-yard touchdown pass and scored on runs of 17, 6 and 5 yards. He rushed for 73 yards on 13 carries and caught seven passes for 59 yards.
Irvin was considered by many to be the top prep player to come out of Florida last season and was heavily recruited by Miami, Florida State, Tennessee and Ohio State. He rushed for 1,129 yards and 29 touchdowns at Miami High School as a senior.
Gardner kicked field goals of 49, 43 and 37 yards for Michigan State, which scored the most points in a season opener since a 54-0 win over Indiana on September 28th, 1957.
Junior Todd Schultz, who won the starting quarterback job over Notre Dame transfer Gus Ornstein, completed 19 of 27 passes for 174 yards and one touchdown for Michigan State. He was 14-of-19 for 150 yards in the first half when the Spartans built a 28-0 halftime lead.
Ornstein replaced Schultz in the fourth quarter and hit Gari Scott with a 54-yard scoring pass.
Michigan State, which opened the season with a conference game for the first time since 1982, plays at defending national champion Nebraska next Saturday.
Purdue opened with a Big Ten opponent for the first time since 1979. The Boilermakers play at Notre Dame on September 14th.

Michigan State vs. Purdue Postgame Coverage
Quotes From Msu Head Coach Nick Saban
This game will be a building block for what we can do, where we can improve, where we go from here. This is a big game for us. I was pleased with the way we came out, with the way we were able to run the ball. Todd (Schultz) was effective and accurate even though we threw the ball short. He seemed to be effective in what we asked him to do.
Sedric (Irvin) obviously had a pretty good day for the first game of a freshman...scoring four touchdowns. But the other things he did in the game helped us win.
There are a lot of things we can do offensively to improve, to be a little crisper and sharper and have a little better tempo in the game. I think most teams improve quite a bit from the first game to the second game and hopefully that will be true of this team.
Special teams were really good today. Chris Gardner did a really good job of kicking off. Coverage team on kickoff was outstanding.
We are overall very pleased. We obviously have a long way to go if we are going to be a good football team. This is just one step for us in trying to develop the goals we have for the season.
(Surprised at score) I was a little surprised about that ...I thought the game would be a close game in all honesty. As the game wore on it seemed that we were a bit more physical in the offensive line and controlled the line of scrimmage.
(On Sedrick Irvin) We played him exactly in the game the way I've been telling everybody and he just happened to score four touchdowns. He did what we needed him to do to win.
We'll see how good we are next week. Before we start worrying about all these weapons we got. We're going to see weapons that are real weapons next week.
Michigan State vs. Purdue Postgame Coverage
Quotes From Purdue Head Coach Jim Colletto
Internally we have two senior guards surrounded by guys who have not been in the fire and that's a real concern.
(On choosing a quarterback) We are going to go back and decide whose the best quarterback and he's going to play. There is no controversy.
Soma of them (true freshman) are going to have to play down the road. From the offensive standpoint we didn't do anything and that's something that is going to have to change.
We were going to do the thing we had planned to do, but it got to where there was no communication along the offensive line. Part of it is adjusting to the speed of play. We made some plays later in the game but it was too late.
(On Sedrick Irvin) He looked pretty good. I was impressed from the first game. When they came at us we didn't block very good.
The thing that is hard to deal with is looking at the last spring practice and then to look at todays starters and there is a big difference. Then with the injuries it just snowballs and is a hard to get a strong sense of what's going on.
I don't know who we blocked very well in the beginning. After a while they settled down. But they (Purdue's defensive line) were seeing ghosts, someone that just wasn't there.
I don't think in their best guess they thought that it would happen to them. They have to realize there are no manhole covers on the field and they have to do the job they went out there to do.
There is 13 more weeks of football. It is a real learning experience and I think there will be more interest in practice in what we are trying to tell them. It's a faster game at this level.
