Alexis Diner, Newburgh NY
The Alexis Diner in Newburgh used to be called the Lexus Diner until the car company sued them over the use of the name. It didn't matter that the diner had the name first, I guess the corporate suits were worried that some of their customers may not be able to tell the difference between a Japanese luxury car and a corned beef sandwich. They may have been right though, both a burger and a car can some deluxe, but who wants fries with a coupe? But, as Shakespeare said, what's in a name? The Alexis Diner by any name is one of the best in the Mid-Hudson Valley.
I can speak on this with some authority, I've probably eaten there somewhere between fifty and a hundred times and it's been very good almost every time. The few times it wasn't was a few years ago when I think they were temporarily under a different management, since that they've been back up to snuff. The menu is extensive, the service is good, and the prices are reasonable.
As for the food, the Rueben sandwiches are good, and huge, the Gyros are good and come with a small Greek salad (see the picture above), the burgers are good, the deserts are very good, the salads are fresh and huge, the omelets are fluffy, in fact, just about everything is good. Of course I follow my rule of ordering diner food in a diner. By the way, if you order a salad, order the small one because it is plenty even for me, and plan on sharing a desert too. The pie slices are big.
My daughter was visiting from North Carolina and we were watching Man Versus Food on TV. It was the episode where he ate a huge corned beef sandwich. Rachel said she wanted a Rueben. You see, they don't have diners in the South. They have places they call "meat and three', meaning you get a meat and three sides. We went and she got her rueben, I got a gyro (again I pronounced it right, yee-ros, and the waiter said gyro. Of course he wasn't Greek, he was Mexican) and Teresa got a burger. All were good.
Stop by sometime for a good meal. You won't be disappointed. For more info, visit their website.

Double O Grill, Wappingers Falls, NY
Double O is a bistro type restaurant with a large bar and an extensive menu. We used to go there years ago when it was the Rolling Rock Cafe and hit it a few times after they changed hands. The hands that own it now are the same ones that own the Eveready Diner and the Coyote Grill. Since I like the Eveready Diner, and my wife has been to the Double O a few times recently we had it on our short list.
Well we went there the other day on our way to a 7:30 meeting in Wappingers Falls. There was a traffic incident along the way, so we didn't get to the restaurant until 6:35. Plenty of time for a burger and a salad, or so I thought.
It wasn't busy and we were seated promptly. The waiter introduced himself to us, got us water and took our orders. I ordered the Blue Cheese Burger and Teresa had the Parmesan Crusted Chicken salad. For a slow night, the food took a while, but it was well worth the wait. My burger was perfectly cooked. Crusted on the outside and medium rare in the center. The blue cheese was plentiful, and of good quality, and there was a delightful grilled red onion slice on it. Sweet. The salad was a neat presentation, I wish I took a picture of it, and tasty. No complaints about the food.
The problem came with how long it took to pay. We got the bill and I looked at it, inserted the credit card, and waited ten minutes for the waiter to return. When he picked it up, it took another ten minutes before he came back with it saying, "Here's the bill, I have to backtrack my steps to find your card." Yup, he lost my credit card. I stood there for another ten minutes fuming as thoughts of having to cancel the card and the inconveniences associated with it ran through my mind. One of his associates said, "Oh, they fall out of those holders all the time." No they don't.
Anyway, he found my card and I signed the bill. I did lose his tip though. I never stiff a waiter, but the service wasn't good to begin with and he really did get me mad.

NEW ORLEANS -- As they do every year on the day before the All-Star Game, the LeBron James Family Foundation, Sprite and the Boys & Girls Club unveiled a rejuvenated gymnasium on Saturday. As usual, it was a huge success.
James doesnt compete in Sprites slam-dunk contest, but the shiny new hardwood floors, fresh paint and padding and new basketball goals at that Gretna, La., youth center will spark the imagination of children in a way the NBAs All-Star extravaganza never could.
Of course, thats not to say James charity event wasnt a spectacle. It was, but in a good way.
For James, Dwyane Wade and even Chris Bosh, anywhere they go these days even Boys & Girls clubs is an ordeal that requires a professionally trained security detail, public relations handlers, in-house videographers and a full-time employee whose only job is sending out messages on the Heats Twitter account.
Even rock stars would be envious of that entourage.
My life is now a fishbowl, Bosh said.
James and Wade have started referring to their defending back-to-back championship basketball team as The Heatles more and more and for good reason. This moment in time at the All-Star break and with 30 games left in the regular season might be the height of their national and international popularity.
On Sunday, Feb.16, 1964 50 years ago to the day the Beatles laid down a recording for The Ed Sullivan Show at Miamis Deauville Hotel, and America has been in love with the Fab Four ever since. In the basketball world, it took a few years for fans outside South Florida to fall for The Heatles, but, somewhere in between those two titles, Miamis basketball team went from being hated by most to being adored by many.
Weve got more fans now, James said. A lot of the pressure is off of us. A lot of the hatred is off of us. We just feel, as a group, were just more comfortable being around each other; 2010 seems so far away.
On Sunday, there probably will be only cheers for the Heats Big 3 in the 2014 NBA All-Star Game at New Orleans Smoothie King Center. James, Wade and Bosh will suit up in Eastern Conference All-Star gear for the fourth time together as members of the Heat and their stars have never been brighter.
Wade even made The Heatles T-shirts for his teammates to remember this time in their lives.
The whole Heatles thing is when you go into every arena and youre selling out everywhere you go, Wade said. Whenever you step off the bus, whenever you go to dinner, its a show. And thats where it came from, The Heatles, because we just took it from The Beatles because theyre the hugest group.
You understand that this type of status doesnt come often to teams. Not even just in basketball, but all around. You could say the Yankees have had it, you could say the Cowboys have had it the Fab Five, the Bulls, you can name them off the top of your head. There are not many teams that have that, so its different.
This season, in places such as Portland, Ore., and Salt Lake City basketball towns with strong traditions fans of the Heat loiter outside team hotels at odd hours just to catch a glimpse of the basketball players with boy-band popularity.
Its crazy, Battier said. Ive never seen anything like the crowds that the Big 3 generate in hotels now, and no matter what time we get in.
In mega cities such as New York, Atlanta and Los Angeles, it has been a normal practice for years now for venues and nightclubs to pay James and Wade for the right to publicize parties claiming the players will attend. But now those promotional events are happening in sleepy cities such as Phoenix.
In the Heats division, the arenas in Washington, Atlanta and Charlotte often feel like satellites of 601 Biscayne Boulevard. Heat fans are often louder than the home teams supporters. Even in Philadelphia, where the Heat was booed mercilessly for three consecutive years, fans have started to cheer for Miami.
In arenas around the league, the production arms of opposing teams have started putting together satirical videos ostracizing bandwagon Heat fans. When the Heats Big 3 first came together, some of those same arenas had to beef up security because the hate for the Heat was so raw. Some players, such as Battier, experienced both sides of the transformation by joining the team during the middle of its run.
When I first got here, there was still some tension from the first year this team was together, but we still sold out everywhere weve went, and wherever we went we aroused emotion, whether it was good or bad, positive or negative, Battier said. After we won the championship, there were much more positive vibes generated whenever we were on the road together. Now its pretty amazing to go on the road and hear lets go Heat in a lot of arenas were playing.
Battier has made good use of The Heatles phenomenon. His charity karaoke event, Battioke, raised hundreds of thousands of dollars this year and, once again, featured the Heats stars singing in front of a packed room.
But heres how you really know The Heatles are, in some ways, bigger than the game of basketball at the moment. Wade and James are so popular right now that theyre developing television shows based on their lives.
No, seriously. James show, Survivors Remorse, is a project with Starz that will, according to the cable network, explore the complexity, comedy and drama of an experience that everyone reads about, but few understand what truly happens when you make it out. Wade sold his story-turned-television sitcom, Three The Hard Way, to Fox.
How did this happen? How did James and Wade go from loathed to public figures so admired that TV shows could be made about their lives? It cant just be about the wins.
You got to understand that [people] didnt hate us individually because they didnt know us, Wade said. Most of the people who had negative things to say about the Heat never really sat down and had a conversation with us individually. So, we know it was just the way that they felt things came together.
People dont like change that much and we did something thats never been done and it just took a while to grow on people, but I think once they saw us play the game, and once they saw us together, they realized it was something we wanted to do and we were happy with it.
We play the game the right way and its exciting, so at the end of the day, if youre a fan of basketball, you became a fan of the style of play that we play whether you like us or not. And I think that was the biggest change. No matter what you want to call us Hollywood as hell no matter what you want to say about the Heat, we work.

"Don't ever trust caller ID, because you can't anymore."
It's a piece of advice the president of Raleigh's Better Business Bureau gives out, and a piece of advice Toby Barfield learned to take to heart.
Caller ID changed how consumers used their phones, but scam artists have found out how to change or "spoof" caller ID by appearing as nearly anyone when they call.
"I was in a state of confusion," Barfield said. "That's the typical response of consumers when it happens to them, and I was a classic consumer."
WEB EXTRA: Watch the entire interview with the BBB's Toby Barfield
Someone spoofed Barfield's direct phone line at the Better Business Bureau and used it to impersonate him to harass people.
"I got a call from someone who was very irate who wanted to know why I'd been harassing him apparently, and I knew for a fact I hadn't made a call that day," Barfield said.
At one time, consumers could count caller ID being correct because only telephone companies had the equipment and ability to assign them. But for as little as $10, anyone can employ services that not only change their appearance on caller ID but can alter voices and add background sound effects.
Consumer Sephie Taylor said she has been victimized by spoofing by unscrupulous callers.
"It's usually a computer or someone trying to sell something," Taylor said.
She learned it's a scam when the caller ID shows it is something different from what actually is being pitched.
Officials said many of those spoofed calls come from overseas.
While preparing the broadcast version of this report, Steve Sbraccia received a call on his WNCN-issued cellphone purporting to be from a credit bureau. The call said there was an issue with his credit card.
The caller ID had a Dallas area code and the caller asked Sbraccia to provide information. He hung up and immediately redialed the number.
He got a recording, which said the international call he dialed was not in service.
Although calls like that may come from far away, officials can do something about them if they are reported in time.
"We have been able to take action against a number of these companies even though they've spoofed their number we've been able to go after them,' said Attorney General Roy Cooper.
Cooper said a few simple things can be done to protect yourself:
"You have to know the signs of what to look for that someone is fishing for information they don't really need," Barfield said.
Before he was victimized by spoofing, Barfield said he used to preach to folks not to answer a call unless they recognized the caller ID.
Now he listens to his own message.
Steve is an award-winning reporter for WNCN and former assistant professor. A seasoned professional, Steve is proud to call the Triangle home since 2005 after over two decades in Boston, Mass. More>>

Justin Timberlake began an all-out media blitz for his new album 20/20 Experience on Saturday evening, with a guest host stint -- and music performance -- on Saturday Night Live . On Monday night, he made his first appearance as part of a week-long stand on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon , the first for any artist on Jimmy Fallon 's show.
Ahead of the Fallon taping Monday, JT made his fifth appearance on SNL , and in an opening sketch, Timberlake was welcomed into the "Five Timers Club" by celebs including former SNL cast members Dan Aykroyd , Martin Short and Chevy Chase , as well as others stars, including Alec Baldwin and Tom Hanks . I always have fun on that show," a slightly under-the-weather Timberlake explained to Fallon Monday, "But...it was like the list of cameos as the week went on kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger."
On another topic, During a performance of the album's single Suit and Tie on SNL , Timberlake seemed to knock Kanye West, by changing some lyrics to say, "My hit's so sick, got rappers acting dramatic." Last month, during a London concert, West rapped of JT's collaboration with Jay-Z , "I got love for Hova, but I ain't [expletive] with that 'Suit & Tie.'"
When Fallon pressed Justin for answers Monday, Timberlake neither confirmed or denied the charge he'd made the relatively tame comeback and instead played coy, and said "For the record, I absolutely love Kanye."
Justin closed out the Fallon appearance with the single "Pusher Love Girl." He'll perform every night this week, and also sit down for another interview on Friday's installment of Late Night .
20/20 Experience hits stores March 19.

Drainage Panel. Properly flashing the bottom of a masonry cavity wall usually requires separate components, but Mortar Net's TotalFlash Cavity Wall Drainage System combines everything — flexible flashing, a stainless steel drip edge, and nonclogging drainage mesh — in one precut, preassembled panel. The product comes in overlapping 5 1/2-foot-long pieces with sealant and screws and costs about $9.75 per linear foot of coverage. Mortar Net, 800/664-6638, mortarnet.com.
Spray-On. Icynene's water-blown LD-R-50 Spray Foam Insulation expands to 100 times its applied thickness to completely fill wall and rafter cavities. It does double-duty as a built-in air barrier, and the open-cell foam is water-vapor–permeable. This new formula uses a castor-bean oil ingredient to reduce its petroleum-based content and has an R-value of 3.7 per inch. Installation by a licensed dealer costs 65 cents per inch thickness per square foot. Icynene, 800/758-7325, icynene.com.
Shower Seat. Built-in shower seat structures can be a challenge to make, install, and waterproof — there's always the worry that water will get beneath the tile and compromise the wooden frame. ProSpec's PreFormed Shower Seats are made of waterproof high-density foam and install with thinset mortar to avoid any fastener penetrations through the shower wall. A 22 3/4-inch-wide triangular seat costs $135. Other sizes and preformed wall niches are also available. ProSpec, 800/738-1621, prospec.com.
Three-Way Flashing. Faulty flashing installation can lead to water damage and mold, not to mention expensive callbacks. OSI's solution is the Winteq Window Installation System, which comes complete with sealant for the window flange, rubberized asphalt flashing tape, and low-expansion closed-cell foam. All three components are chemically compatible — not always the case when you're mixing products from different manufacturers, according to OSI. Flashing a 3-foot-by- 5-foot window with the product costs about $12.70. OSI, 800/321-3578, osisealants.com.
Skip the Crane. LiteSteel Beams offer the strength of steel at 40 percent less weight than standard steel I-beams or engineered wood beams, according to the maker. They're also easy to saw on site and can be nailed into with a standard framing gun, says the company, which provides software on its Web site to help with sizing. An 18-foot long, 8-inch-tall garage-door header weighs 107 pounds and lists for $160. LiteSteel Technologies, 877/285-2607, litesteelbeam.com.
Green Drive. Not everyone wants a big expanse of asphalt or concrete dominating their landscape. Drivable Grass Mats by Soil Retention Systems provide better drainage and hold less summer heat than paved drives while looking a lot greener. The 2-foot squares can also be used for drainage erosion control. They're made of 4,000-psi concrete for heavy load capacity, come in three colors, and cost $2.50 each. Soil Retention Systems, 800/346- 7995, soilretention.com
Push Fit. Plumbing supply lines keeps getting easier with products like Sharkbite Push-Fit Fittings by Cash Acme. With no solder or cement needed, these fittings make permanent connections in copper, PEX, and CPVC tubing, and they're UPC- and IPC-approved for installation behind walls without access panels, says the maker. Unlike traditional fittings, they can be twisted into position while under pressure and can be easily removed and refitted. A 1/2-inch coupling costs $5.35. Cash Acme, 877/700-4242, sharkbite.com.

Essential Info
Lee Kuan Yew
When Lee Kuan Yew speaks, presidents, prime ministers, diplomats, and CEOs listen. Lee, the founding father of modern Singapore and its prime minister from 1959 to 1990, has honed his wisdom during more than fifty years on the world stage. Almost single-handedly responsible for transforming Singapore into a Western-style economic success, he offers a unique perspective on the geopolitics of East and West. American presidents from Richard Nixon to Barack Obama have welcomed him to the White House; British prime ministers from Margaret Thatcher to Tony Blair have recognized his wisdom; and business leaders from Rupert Murdoch to Rex Tillerson, CEO of Exxon Mobil, have praised his accomplishments. This book gathers key insights from interviews, speeches, and Lee's voluminous published writings and presents them in an engaging question and answer format.
Lee offers his assessment of China's future, asserting, among other things, that "China will want to share this century as co-equals with the U.S." He affirms the United States' position as the world's sole superpower but expresses dismay at the vagaries of its political system. He offers strategic advice for dealing with China and goes on to discuss India's future, Islamic terrorism, economic growth, geopolitics and globalization, and democracy. Lee does not pull his punches, offering his unvarnished opinions on multiculturalism, the welfare state, education, and the free market. This little book belongs on the reading list of every world leader—including the one who takes the oath of office on January 20, 2013.

About the Authors
Graham Allison is Douglas Dillon Professor of Government and Director of the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at the Harvard Kennedy School.
Robert D. Blackwill is Henry A. Kissinger Senior Fellow for U.S. Foreign Policy at the Council on Foreign Relations.
Ali Wyne is an associate of the Belfer Center.
"If you are interested in the future of Asia, which means the future of the world, you've got to read this book."—Fareed Zakaria, CNN
"Lee's powerful intellect is captured in a new book, Lee Kuan Yew: The Grand Master's Insights on China, the United States, and the World . It's a collection of interviews with him by Harvard University professor Graham Allison, Council on Foreign Relations senior fellow Robert Blackwill and Harvard's Belfer Center researcher Ali Wyne, while also drawing on other selected and cited writings by and about Lee. Now 89, officially retired and somewhat frail, Lee has mellowed with age — not unlike his creation Singapore, governed today with a lighter touch even as its citizens grow more vocal. Yet, as the book, and the adaptation here of the China chapter, reveal, Lee is as sharp, direct and prescient as ever. Though the volume was completed before China's current territorial tensions with its neighbors, it helps expose, and explain, Beijing's hardball mind-set." —TIME Magazine
"Graham Allison and Bob Blackwill have important questions to ask about China, America and the extraordinary impact of the relationship of those two countries on the rest of the world. For answers, they turned to Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore's first premier and one of the world's most formidable geopolitical thinkers and strategists. The result is a fascinating book called Lee Kuan Yew: The Grand Master's Insights on China, the United States, and the World." —Ian Bremmer, Reuters
"Lee Kuan Yew: The Grand Master's Insights on China, the United States, and the World forms a kind of last testament of the ailing, 89-year-old Mr. Lee. It is based on interviews with Mr. Lee by the authors—Graham Allison, a professor of government at Harvard's Kennedy School, and Robert Blackwill, a former U.S. diplomat—to which the authors add a distillation of Mr. Lee's speeches, writings and interviews with others over many years."
—Karen Elliott House, Wall Street Journal
"Lee Kuan Yew: The Grand Master's Insights on China, the United States, and the World is an anthology of interviews and speeches Lee has given over the last four decades…readers will find themselves entertained and challenged by Lee Kuan Yew's lucidity, powerful arguments and acerbic tongue."
—Anchalee Kongrut, Economic Observer
"Lee is a force of nature. Up close and personal, he can blow you away with one overpowering dismissive glare. Has there ever been anyone like him? ... [The book] will reinforce the consensus view that Asia bred something special in Lee."
—Tom Plate, South China Morning Post
"Lee excels in pithy evaluations of regional and national strengths and weaknesses. At his best, the man is a cross between Confucius and Machiavelli."
—Aram Bakshian Jr., Washington Times

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - Tucson officials may settle a lawsuit in which Union Pacific Railroad seeks damages for a 2010 waterline break that flooded UP's rail yard.
The Arizona Daily Star reports that the City Council will discuss a possible settlement that would pay the railroad $1.3 million.
At issue in the case is who was at fault in the break that resulted in the loss of up to 11 million gallons of water and caused extensive damage to railroad equipment and property.
The railroad contends a city worker improperly marked the water line. UP says that led to the break as a contractor for the railroad performed excavation work.
The city contends the contractor continued digging when work should have stopped after the excavation crew hit the water line's outer concrete casing.

Chipper Jones made an interesting point the other day when asked about the possibility of the Braves winning the National League East over Philadelphia this season: "We're going to have to play more consistently against teams not named Philly. Philly beats up on teams they should beat up on."
The Braves don't. At least they didn't last season. They went 19-17 against Washington and Florida last season (teams that finished a combined 149-175). The Phillies were 25-11 against the Nationals and Marlins.
That's a difference of six games. The difference in the standings last season: six games.
The Braves open the season Thursday at Washington. I'm on record as believing they have the better team than Philadelphia (given injuries to the Phillies' Chase Utley and Brad Lidge and the loss of Jayson Werth) and they will win the East Division.
I figured that pick was going out on a limb. Turns out that it's not such a longshot after all. Several media outlets suddenly seem to have turned the Braves into a fashionable pick.
Here's a short dance around the internet:
– Sports Illustrated picks the Braves over Philly. Excerpts from Jon Heyman's analysis:
It'll be considered an upset by all, but their starting pitching is terrific by any standard except for Philadelphia's, they have not one but two decent closing options in Craig Kimbrel and Jonny Venters, and while there are defensive questions, at least at second (Dan Uggla) and third (Chipper Jones), Jones looks like he's primed for a big finish, Brian McCann is in the best shape of his career and [Freddie] Freeman and Jason Heyward might both turn out to be megastars. … The Phillies have that fantastic pitching, good enough to justify their tag as World Series favorites. But their spring was an unmitigated disaster. Chase Utley is out indefinitely, Brad Lidge is hurting and so is Placido Polanco.
– Fox Sports picks the Braves over Philly. Excerpts from long time baseball writer Tracy Ringolsby:
It would be a made-for-TV season if Gonzalez rallies the Braves to a division title in his first year on the job. Give Atlanta the edge in the NL East. [Freeman and Heyward] are the foundation for the Braves future, ready to make an impact now. The old man, third baseman Chipper Jones, is returning for another year and showed no problems from the torn ACL that cut short his 2010 season. Major offseason addition Dan Uggla will provide some life to the offense, but defense is a question. The rotation won't get the plaudits of the Phillies, but it's a quality quintet with the youthful arms of Tommy Hanson and Jair Jurrjens. … Center fielder Nate McLouth has been a major disappointment. This spring, however, he has looked like the offensive catalyst the Braves need to have a contending lineup.
– ESPN has a panel of 45 making predictions. Of those 29 pick Philadelphia to win the East, 16 tab the Braves. Buster Olney, ESPN's premier national writer, picks the Braves, as he hinted a few weeks ago when we spoke in Florida. Of the other picks, 18 predict the Braves to reach as a wild card, 11 say they will miss the postseason, 12 tab them to win the pennant and two predict they'll win the World Series. Here's ESPN's video preview of the East.
– CBS Sports has a panel of eight experts, six going with the Phillies and two going with the Braves. Four project the Braves to win the pennant and one writer, Danny Knobler, writes that the Braves will win the World Series. (As a side note, Danny and I both are products of Ms. Fontes' journalism class at University High School in West Los Angeles. But I don't believe that had anything to do with his pick.)
– The Sporting News picks the Phillies to win the East and go all the way to the World Series, where they'll lost to Boston. They say the Braves will miss the playoffs all together. Frank Wren just canceled his subscription. The Sporting News gives the West to Colorado and the wild card to San Francisco. An excerpt:
This will be a battle between the Giants and Atlanta Braves, but another of the majors' best rotations will be the deciding factor. Despite also having a deep rotation, the Braves have too many defensive questions and aren't very deep. San Francisco has offensive issues of its own, but its offense won't run into the Phillies' arms as often as Atlanta's will
– Yahoo! Sports has three baseball writers making predictions. Two went with the Braves in the East, one with the Phillies. Tim Brown places the Braves fourth in his overall power rankings, behind Boston, San Francisco and the New York Yankees, and one spot ahead of Philadelphia.
There are a zillion more previews to be found. But I figure if you click-and-read the links, that should more than enough to fill your free time before Thursday's first pitch at 1:05 p.m.
Oh wait. One more thing. Here are my 100-percent guaranteed predictions, if my name isn't Rumpelstiltskin.
AMERICAN LEAGUE: Boston (East), Minnesota (Central), Oakland (West), Detroit (wild card).
NATIONAL LEAGUE: Atlanta (East), Cincinnati (Central), San Francisco (West), Philadelphia (wild card).
A.L. CHAMPION: Boston.
N.L. CHAMPION: Atlanta.
WORLD SERIES: Boston. (Sorry.)
Your turn. Let's hear your prediction (and remember: It's going on your permanent record.) Also have a poll up.

I am as Braves as Brave can be, true and through……
but watch us lose to the Nats tomorrow…… they own us. Then all hype will be gone.
Hope I am wrong!!!
March 30th, 2011
10:48 pm
First. But you don't give kudos, like Bradley, do you?
March 30th, 2011
10:48 pm
Jeff, as much as I'd love to see this. (All except for the Braves losing to the Red Sox, in the WS, I just think you are discounting Philly too much.
Yes, they have injuries now.. but.. that starting staff. Halliday, Hamels, Oswalt, Lee, Blanton. Four of those five guys should win 15 games each, and have a shot to win 20. I think they are the best rotation since Maddux, Glavine Smoltz Millwood, or Maddux, Glavine, Smoltz Avery, or Maddux Glavine, Smoltz Neagle, whichever you prefer.
The Phillies might be a bit short in the hitting, but Utley and Howard are still formidable.
Closer will be a problem for them early, with Lidge out for up to six weeks, but we have two new closers too.
Uggla will help us, but we know Chipper will DL somewhere along the line.
Oh, and our top two starting pitchers, Lowe and Hudson, are over 35.
I just think NL East is too sunny of a prediction. Wild Card, yes, they should get that, if healthy, but NL East? I think Philly would have to falter, badly, for us to get that.
March 30th, 2011
10:48 pm
It's baseball time.Let's go bravos. I'm thinking world series run, we have the correct conglomerate to get this done for sure.
March 30th, 2011
10:49 pm
Boston to win the world series.. I don't blame you. An overwhelming Boston team
March 30th, 2011
10:51 pm
First! yeah
March 30th, 2011
10:52 pm
MitchC, Philly had questions with their offense last year even when they had Utley and Werth, and now neither are healthy. There's no way Philly runs away with the division, they are basically the 2009 Giants that didn't make the playoffs… Lots of pitching, way too inconsistent of an offense. And our best starting pitcher is Hanson. And he isn't anywhere close to his 30's
March 30th, 2011
11:00 pm
I think the Braves win the wild card and lose in the NLCS. Philly's starting rotation is too good to pick against. Unless one of them gets injured, I have a hard time seeing them losing a playoff series regardless of how banged up their starting lineup is.
March 30th, 2011
11:03 pm
You either with the guys in that braves clubhouse or your not. Me and my people ride and die with them boys in the A, and shut the doors on those who do the one foot in, one foot out routine. Please be trill wit it. Can't stand half steppers
March 30th, 2011
11:04 pm
I am a Phillies fan and quite frankly, it would be great if another team was the true critics pick. These writers are ALWAYS wrong. The braves have a good team but their great players are well past their prime and their great-to-be players are still to young. Also, last year you were virtually untouched by injuries and odds are you won't escape that this year. One more thing: how many "magic" finishes for wins did you have last year? A lot. Can you really depend on that portion of luck again? Sorry guys, not this year.
March 30th, 2011
11:06 pm
"last year you were virtually untouched by injuries"
Is it already April Fools' Day?
March 30th, 2011
11:08 pm
Don't forget that the Onion's SportsDome picked the Braves over the Phillies earlier this month.
March 30th, 2011
11:11 pm
March 30th, 2011
11:14 pm
yes, we will definitely count on the magic. It's in our DNA.
March 30th, 2011
11:14 pm
I would love to see Boston in the series. That would be a match-up that would garner lots of attention, considering each teams lineup. But no matter who face, getting there would rank prime minister. Let's do this Atlanta. We got you
March 30th, 2011
11:17 pm
doug glanville a career philly so his opinion is pointless n bias
March 30th, 2011

"Last year you were virtually untouched by injuries." I can't decide which is funnier, that line or Leslie Nielsen umpiring the Angels – Mariners game in The Naked Gun.
AL: Tampa Bay, Detroit, Oakland, WC: Boston
NL: Atlanta, Milwaukee, Los Angeles, WC: Philly
WS: Atlanta-Detroit
Braves in 7.
Homer? I know I am, but what are you?
March 30th, 2011
11:44 pm
I'm picking Braves to get off to a fast start..ST is over and its for real now."Fredi and the Braves Star in Washington tomorrow………..with all-Star Cast…Go Braves".
March 30th, 2011
11:46 pm
Braves still represent loserville and of course that means they are still the "Not ready for prime time players".
March 30th, 2011
11:55 pm
Virtually untouched by injuries…… except Jair Jurrjens, Martin Prado, Jason Heyward, Chipper Jones, Nate McLouth, etc. Right, virtually untouched…
March 31st, 2011
12:02 am
Wright you are wrong !!! ( could not resist yall ) And what is this 1989 with the primetime player remark
March 31st, 2011
12:30 am
It clearly doesn't matter.
It's a Red Sox nation and we're all just living in it. Or something like that.
March 31st, 2011
12:47 am
I gotta go with Wright here. I'll believe it when I see it. I'm amazed that anybody would pick the Braves to even win a playoff series let alone make it to the World Series.
I mean, I like it. It sounds good to me and it's about time we got some love or whatever you want to call it but the Braves are still a bunch of bedwetters.
They're just not the same team on the big stage. They can't handle it. These people are aware that we haven't won a playoff series in ten years right?
Even though we're probably the better team and should win, I still gotta go with the team that has won it four years in a row.
In the central, I think you have to like the Brewers being able to compete against the Reds. Their pitching staff has gotten overhyped but they have a decent bullpen and ultimately anything other than the performance they got from their starters last year has to be considered a vast improvement.
That settles it, I'm going with the Brewers.
The Rockies are a bunch of phonies. The Giants will repeat.
The Wild Card will be either the… I was about to say the Phillies but I forgot I picked them to win the division so I guess it's going to have to be the Braves.
I was going to say the Phillies, Marlins or Reds but why bother making predictions?
They're always wrong. Nobody know's what's going to happen. That's why they play the game.
March 31st, 2011
1:24 am
I'll go with what you got Schultzie… except for the WS winner, where I'm sticking with the home team! I understand that you have to be a more balanced, realist writer… but I don't… so it's nice rings all around and the big flag hanging at Turner Field next year!
March 31st, 2011
2:27 am
Braves: 3rd in the NL East behind Philly and Florida. MARK IT DOWN!
March 31st, 2011
2:52 am
This is the year Braves fans realize just HOW GREAT Bobby Cox really was. 4th in the East, ahead of only the Mets, and under .500.
March 31st, 2011
4:15 am
The Braves are one stiff Chipper Jones hamstring from losing him at any moment. The man is old, folks. I like the new manager and think they'll play hard for him, but I see this year at 86 wins.
March 31st, 2011
4:50 am
Oh the optimism of starting the season today undefeated…
Now the reality…
– What will Freeman do over a full season?
– How will Prado play in LF?
– Will Chipper stay healthy?
– Will we see the Lowe of April-August, 2010 or the Lowe of Sept-Oct?
– Will Jurrjens regain his fast ball or be a mediocre starter?
– Will Hanson regain HIS great fastball or be just above average?
– Can Kimbrell really close out games consistently?
– Will Heyward make the next step offensively or is he another Tony Torasco?
– Will we get the McClouth of spring training or the McClouth of last season?
– Will Conrad catch the ball and through it to first base for an out?
My greatest optimism lies with the new Manager, Freddie Gonzalez. The extra emphasis on fundamentals and a greater sense of urgency this spring was refreshing, to say the least. And having so many players show up in the best shape of their careers is refreshing.
No one can truly predict what is going to happen to a team with so many changes from one season to the next. But I will predict this. If all–and I mean ALL–of the above questions get favorable responses then this team will be a playoff contender. On the contrary, this is also the type of team that if too many of the above questions are answered negatively this team also had the potential to win 85 games and be out of contention by early-mid September.
For sure, this is the most compelling Braves team to watch in years…now let's play the games, shall we?
March 31st, 2011
5:11 am
Bobby Cox was 1-15 (.067) in the last game of his 16 postseason opportunities afforded him by a team with one best GM's, scouting systems, and minor league player develop systems in MLB. And, save the pitching performance of a lifetime by Glavine (one hitter) and the solo homer by Justice in game 6 of the 1995 World Series, Cox could be sporting a perfect 0-16 record at watching his opponent manager and his players celebrate on the pitcher's mound.
1-15…think about this! You have to really be bad at postseason, in-game, situational managing to pull this off!
I'll give him his due for righting the ship as a GM in the late 80's, managing the youngsters in 1990 and 1991 to ignite this run, and for being an overall stable presence from February – September every season. But, long, long ago someone should have forced Bobby to hire an Offensive Coordinator to take over the decisions in October where he was routinely out-managed despite often having superior teams (1991, 1992, 1996, 1997).
Try as you may, but you cannot defend the overwhelming and convincing evidence of 1-15.
March 31st, 2011
6:15 am
Guess what, Larry? Bobby's not the manager anymore. Let it go.
March 31st, 2011
7:02 am
hahaha. u r both right.
March 31st, 2011
7:06 am
There's no player on the Braves 40 man roster named McClouth. They do however have a starting CF named Nate McLouth.
March 31st, 2011
7:32 am
Never heard of anybody "throughing" a ball to first base. I'd like to see that.
March 31st, 2011

March 31st, 2011
8:33 am
How soon they forget. On ESPN radio this morning, some yahoo called the Phillies rotation the best in 20 years. It has not been that long since Maddux, Smoltz, Glavine, and Neagle, Millwood, etc. were better than the current Phils' rotation.
March 31st, 2011
8:35 am
I'm on record as believing they have the better team than Philadelphia (given injuries to the Phillies' Chase Utley and Brad Lidge and the loss of Jayson Werth)
Yeah last year they had 6 starters including chase on the dl for at least a month, had oswalt for 3 months of the season and have cliff lee and still won 97 games but yeah the phils wont beat the braves. yeah right. idiot.
March 31st, 2011
8:40 am
meh, they got it last year too. Braves had a 7 game lead in July and lost by 6 games last year.
The Phillies ADDED Cliff Freaking Lee and Roy Oswalt.
I'm a Braves fan…I love the Braves, I think it's going to be close. But on paper….the Braves are probably 3-5 games back at the end of 162.
March 31st, 2011
8:41 am
I think the Braves could lose the NL East and still win the NL pennant or the WS, and I also think they are a year away from being really good.
March 31st, 2011
8:46 am
chip will be out by may with an injury and won't return til july and will get hurt again and miss the rest of the season.
March 31st, 2011
8:49 am
You really picked the Yankees to miss the Postseason altogether???? Bold!!
Viva la Bravos!!!
March 31st, 2011
8:52 am
Don't know how we can be picked over the defending champs, BUT I like the underdog status, gives you extra incentive. Philly's staff is great, but I think we have a better "team". Like they said we have to win the games over teams we're supposed to beat and try to win each series. Looking forward to seeing these young guys come through , I hope we're not puting too much pressure on Hewyard, Freeman and the kid closers! Good luck go Braves !!!
March 31st, 2011
9:06 am
Dr. Warren; can you tell me which 86 games the Braves will end up winning? Thanks!
March 31st, 2011
9:07 am
Yeah, I'm digging all the love the Braves are getting. But starting this afternoon, predictions and projections mean absolutely……….jack. That's why they play the games.
March 31st, 2011
9:09 am
Nice stat on the 6 game difference between the teams, Jeff.
I hope we are a little more aggressive on the on the bases under Fredi, than in the past.
March 31st, 2011
9:11 am
Gotta tighten up the D also . . .
March 31st, 2011
9:16 am
It's cute picking the Braves. I get it. People want to be the smart guy that dug deep, looked past the Phils' utterly ridiculous rotation, found a few flaws, and justified the Braves as level-headed pick to win the division. But I think we all know how this race ends.
March 31st, 2011
9:17 am
Let's Go
March 31st, 2011

There's no player on the Braves 40 man roster named McClouth. They do however have a starting CF named Nate McLouth."

In addition to raising more than $100,000 for cancer research, two Austin women are showing their support for those who have battled the disease in another way. Amy Decosmo and Cassie Helton decided they would shave off their long locks if they each met their personal fundraising goal. The two have been training with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Team in Training (TNT) program for the Nike Women's Marathon on October 20th.
After losing a close friend and teammate to cancer this season, Cassie set her goal at $10,000. She's exceeded that by several thousand dollars. Earlier this year, Amy got the news that her 4-year-old son was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma. She set her goal at $100,000 and reached that Saturday. So, after their team practice Saturday morning, the women, along with a couple male friends, shaved it all off.
"Those two have raised an extreme amount of money and are shaving their heads in honor of those people who have fought cancer and will be participating in events over the next two weeks in honor of their heroes." said William Colin Novelli, campaign manager for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
TNT has trained more than 570,000 people and raised more than $1.32 billion.

I love the NY Subway. It takes you exactly where you want to go. It's entertaining. It's inexpensive. Of course, there can be struggles. But in the end, if planned well, you get where you want to go. Where are you going?Learn More
I love sports and fitness, and hanging around with creative people. When I got a chance to enter the Mixed Martial Arts industry about two years ago, I jumped at it because I knew it was a fitness revolution plus an amazing sport. More impressive is the infinite creativity of so many MMA trainers and athletes. It's inspiring.
Crowded – with people, with signs, with communication. The density of NYC's Chinatown is intense. And it's amazing that any message can cut through the audible and visual noise. That's true in more places than just Canal St. How can your story be heard? That's what we do at HansenHouse Communication.
Winter gets a bad rap – the cold, the darkness. But it's not fair, and it's not true. In one backyard I love, cardinals come forth each winter, filling snowy boughs with a rich redness not seen in summer months. Their appearance helps winter tell a whole different story. You just have to be open to seeing and hearing that tale.
I'm a frustrated gardener, struggling to produce beauty from these thorny rose bushes that scratch at my hands and my soul. I work with them outdoors, hoping I can get from them the rewards I know are within. It never seems enough, until I get one inside. That came from such unfriendly soil? Think of the possibilities.

If you're a developer and like to keep up-to-date with the trends in IT, and maybe learn a useful extra, you probably also read www.dzone.com. Community based, users post links that must get 4 votes to be promoted to the first page. The natural consequence is that the quality of the links depends solely on the number of active, voting users (since the "providers" and the "consumers" are the same group in this model).
Recently I noticed the announcement posted above the links list:
Well, I'm not a usability expert, but I think there is an elementary problem with the design of the dzone site that keeps users from voting. At least, it's keeping me from voting for links, new or front page.
I'm a mass surfer (and prolly most dzone readers are too). I use the middle mouse button to open tabs in the background (Firefox), and when I finish with one page, I close it and move to the next.
With dzone, this led to a problem. Once, I middle click on all the links that seem interesting from the main page, I get a bunch of opened tab that don't give me any additional information (except from the comments, maybe). So I use the middle mouse button again to open the links to the original pages, to see what they're really about. And I get something like this (but usually with more tabs :D):
So, in order to get to vote, I have to keep all the dzone tabs opened (or at least the links list), read through all the original pages, and then come back to the dzone site and actually rate the sites from what I remember. Or, keep on switching from each site to dzone to cast my vote. And that just ain't my style :)
I'm sure there are solutions. One I can think about right away would be to open the full original pages in a iframe and keep the dzone summary with the vote-up and vote-down buttons in a top iframe, similar to the way google opens images in the image search. Even better, mess with the original page a little and add the vote-up, vote-down button fixed in the upper right corner (this would be really cool, since when you go to the close tab button - if you use it - it is very easy for you to cast your vote).
There might be better ways to solve this. But if I'd have an option to cast my vote in the same place where the content that is producing it is located, I wouldn't miss rating one link.

Helping dzone: a usability problem ?
14 comments:
I 100% agree with you!
I use dzone daily and I cannot STAND the fact that i have to click twice for no reason! Take me to the freaking site already!
Another one that pisses me off and makes me simply not use the feature is voting. If you aren't going to remember my login and pass, i wont vote. I dont want to type that crap in every day.

Actually if you (middle)click on the thumbnail it will go directly to the link and not the intermediate dzone page.

While it is definitely worthy of a multi-daily visit from me, DZone is one of the least usable sites I have ever come across; breaking so many fundamental rules from the get-go. It makes you wonder how much of an impact it would make on the developer scene if it just went through a redesign.

@nikhil: you're right, I realized this while I was writing the post, but the main problem that remains is the impossibility to "cast my vote in the same place where the content that is producing it is located"

I'm glad someone brought this up! DZone is my most-visited site by far, but there is something about it that makes voting for links kind of an afterthought. As other posters have noted, that intermediate page is a dumb idea, but you can circumvent it with this Greasemonkey script: (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/12850). Still, those hover-screenshot things are really irritating.
I sure hope they consider reworking the site; it's otherwise very useful.

maybe a little ajax in the entire process will go a long way. I am one of those web users that hate having to move thru multiple pages to get simple things done. Essentially, a typical user is on Dzone to read articles and not to VOTE which means in usability perspective, voting should be less a burden than reading your desired article.
If dzone can adopt this, i believe it will get more voters.
my 2 cents

- Tech Per said...
Yes, I have felt this problem myself. As a blogger, you can do somehing yourself. You can include the dzone vote button (http://www.dzone.com/links/buttons.jsp) on each post.
I recently did this on my blog, which makes it possible for readers to vote directly on the blog post itself.
I am not keen on the idea of dzone including blog content in an iframe or messing with the blog content to put something in it.

Top three annoying dzone things:
1) Automatically logged out after an hour or so (yes, with persistent cookies & "remember me", on many different OS's & different browsers & different accounts)
2) There's no "bar" at the top of the linked page which allows me to up & down vote + go back to comments, like reddit does.
3) Voting is slow. It's immediate on reddit, which is great. Dzone is even slower than digg's voting.

..I don't use this website my self, so let's say I'm a bit of an outsider when it comes to using it. Anyway:
1. I do agree that one should be able to rate content after reading it, rather than before. From this perspective, the dzone vote button included just after the end of the article seems like the ideal type of solution to me. Ofcourse, the problem with that is consistency and required effort: how can you make all bloggers use it and how difficult is it for them to include the button in each post? (I remember it was very tedious to use that kind of thing with blogoree, so I finally gave up).
A Firefox plugin that includes voting capabilities where needed could also be a solution (provided it can be done), but then you need an IE plugin for consistency..and how do you make that? :)
IFrame also seems like a good idea, although accesibility and possibly other issues must be considered.
2. You have to consider you are not the only user of the website (although you may be the main type :), I don't know ), and the way you use it is not the way everyone uses it. If you consider just one tab and using the 'Back' button, the voting feature is available just as you are ready to view the next location (in the main page), which is exactly after you have finished visiting the previous one - and this follows the right model.
3. One usability problem I suspect is that it's not clear enough which is the link to the summary page and which is the link to the actual content. The image of the content maps correctly as a link to the content itself. But why should the title map to anything else?
This needs some user testing, I think...
4.anonymous: good point about the login and pass. Haven't tested myself, but it seems like a reasonable expectation.
5. ayodeji said:"Essentially, a typical user is on Dzone to read articles and not to VOTE which means in usability perspective, voting should be less a burden than reading your desired article."
I disagree. In general the typical user's needs should be served first, and the not so typical user's needs should be served second. Same goes for tasks: common tasks, performed more often, should be the least of a burden, while not so common tasks can be a bit more difficult, provided that the rewards pays off. For our case: if we were to say the most important task is reading, then that should be served first. Ofcourse, I don't know what the designer's judgment was here. It would seem that voting is also pretty important, so it should be treated accordingly.
6. Iudoa: I tried reddit, I couldn't find any voting functionality. Maybe I got to the wrong website?
7. Very nice discussion. Thanks Mihai for pointing it out :)

Oh, and another usability problem, this time on my part:
My comment is huge. I could have broken it in smaller comments - it would have been much more readable :D

"Oh, and another usability problem, this time on my part:

True .. I didn't even got to read it all :P
Thx for dropping by.

Adding OpenID support to DZone would help a lot.

Most annoying to me is the ajax pagination. I wish they fix it.

"The Hobbit" follows the journey of title character Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor, which was long ago conquered by the dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakensheild. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers.
Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever... Gollum.
Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum's "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities... A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.

2012 Guide Analysis: "Easily one of the year's biggest cinematic events, Peter Jackson returns to the world of Tolkien with this first of a two film adaptation of the 'Rings' prequel book "The Hobbit". Like the book, this will have a lighter and more humorous tone to it as it shows a young Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) setting off on a quest to the Lonely Mountain with a company of dwarves - played by various well regarded British TV actors like James Nesbitt, Richard Armitage, Aidan Turner, Graham McTavish and Ken Stott in heavy make-up.
Much of the "The Lord of the Rings" behind-the-scenes crew is back, as are some familiar faces in both major roles (McKellen, Serkis, Weaving) and minor ones (Blanchett, Bloom, Wood, Holm, Lee), combined with some fresh faces that are also quite familiar like Luke Evans, Evangeline Lilly, Lee Pace, Benedict Cumberbatch, former "Doctor Who" star Sylvester McCoy, and even the national treasures that are Stephen Fry and Barry Humphries. The film had a rough start with changes of directors, union disputes, script issues and more but things finally got underway earlier this year with a big swath of filming already in the can.
Questions remain over the nature of this project. Splitting "The Hobbit" over two films means a lot of ancillary material is being incorporated to not only fill out the tale but bridge it with the 'Rings' trilogy. Some have speculated the first film will essentially be a straightforward 'Hobbit' adaptation with the second its own feature, the more likely scenario is a straightforward single story in two parts.
Then there's the actual shooting. Not only is it being shot with the RED Epic digital cameras in 3D, Jackson is filming at a 48 frames per second rate - double that of the industry standard since the 1920's. The recent first trailer for the project shows a startlingly consistent film - McKellen, Wood, Holm, and the world around them barely seeming to have aged a day. Certainly one of the surer bets of the year, the question is whether the film can live up to the high standard the filmmaker set himself ten years ago with the original trilogy."

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Technically, yes. A wipe is a wipe when everyone's dead. In the most literal sense of the word, you are correct. But what Matt is talking about here is at what point should the raid leader call the attempt a wipe, have everyone still alive purposefully die, and get back in to start the fight again. It's not always an easy call, and as a raider, there are times when I really wish that my RL would just call a wipe when he doesn't. Am I right? Is he right? There isn't a definitive answer.
My personal thoughts on the matter: Since I am just a raider, I heal until either the boss is dead or a wipe is called. Obviously, if both tanks are dead or something obvious like that, I may not try so hard, but I have no problems with using CDs to try to keep the fight going as long as possible as long as there hasn't been a wipe called. If all other healers are dead, then I have no choice but go balls to the walls, OOM in less than a minute style healing, and if that's what it takes, so be it. If somehow that's enough to beat the boss, awesome. If not, well, if I didn't do that we would've died anyway. No harm, no foul.

Orysia, Blossvale, NY January 15, 2013
"I rarely write reviews, but Nuts.com deserves an excellent review! I LOVE the freeze dried veggies and fruits for snacking! They are of premium quality and are shipped unbelievably fast with obvious TLC! The surprise samples are fun, too! I will be watching for more organic freeze dried products, especially crunchy veggies with nothing additional added. Many thanks for such wonderful quality products and an awesome online shopping experience! Nuts.com is every bit as splendid as the organic dark chocolate covered almonds you sell! "
Lisa, Baytown, Texas August 8, 2012
"I heart nuts.com! Thanks for a speedy and delicious box of joy. What a selection! I'm loving the nuts, the tea, the chlorella. But the freeze dried veggies were the biggest surprise. What a good, crunchy gluten-free treat. Thanks for being so nutty and tasty and eclectic."
Carol, Leavittsburg, OH February 7, 2012
"These freeze dried vegetables are surprisingly great! Thought we'd give them a try for a healthy, all natural snack and are thrilled! Delivery was very fast. Will definitely be ordering again. "
Lia, Philadelphia, PA October 6, 2011
"Yeah, my order (2oz tub of freeze dried green beans and 2 oz jar of freeze dried carrots) arrived in 2 days as promised. And here I am 2 days later, ordering more, because I polished off everything!!"
Diane, Sewell, NJ August 6, 2011
"I recently ordered the black walnuts, simply bananas, peaches and green beans and the organic apple chips. This was my second order and it arrived less than 24hours after I placed the order! The first order was equally timely. I sampled everything already and they were all delicious! Thank-you!"
John March 26, 2011
"I mixed 1 yummy pound of dry roasted edamame (salted) with 1 yummy pound of dark chocolate covered soy beans. It's sooo good! When I ordered the simply green beans, I thought it would be a little snack size bag. I was very surprised that 2 oz was a TUB of green beans! I keep 1/2 cup containers of simply green beans or simply peas or any of the simply fruits in my desk as a snack. It's a much healthier snack than anything in the vending machine!"
Kate, Normal, Illinois May 19, 2010
"My first order just arrived in excellent condition in good time. Everything is very good quality, but the veggie chips are fantastic! I wish I'd ordered a full bag, rather than just the sampler! The freeze-dried green beans are also very tasty as a snack food."
Mary, Houston, TX May 11, 2009
"I love you guys, but I have to be honest. I have to stay away from your site most of the time because I know if I go there I will not resist temptation. There is always something I just cannot live without. This time it was simply green beans and simply peas - what a snack idea! And I've been wanting to try amaranth, and, well, one thing led to another....."
Barbara, Douglas, MA April 1, 2009
"Simply green beans and simply veggies are an EXCELLENT healthy, low WW points, crunchy, filling and tasty snack! Very satisfying! The poppy seeds will be used next week in a traditional Easter recipe-- can't wait to try them!
Quick, quick service-- amazing turnaround time!
Thanks! "

Wtbtx Vol. 27 No. 10 Weber State College, Ogden, Utah 84403 January 12, 1968 Colorlogue Scheduled Curtis Nagel's award-winning film "Mexico", will be presented at this morning's convocation in the Fine Arts Center auditorium at 11 a .m. In 100 minutes of 100 unforgettable Colorlogue delights, students will see the charm of colorful Mexico in unique customs and costumes. History unfolds through the magic lenses of the Nagel-Moore cameras in this land older than Montezuma.Widely known as one of the world's most travelled men, as well as a pioneer of theatrical motion pictures, Curtis Nagel brings to the screen the perfection in color, composition, continuity and human interest which only years of experience plus the- eye of an artist can achieve. Born and educated in Boston, Mass., Nagel became associated with Technicolor at its pioneer plant in that city. One of motion picture's youngest producers at that time, he made over 40 "Technicolor Classics" and "Color Symphonies", which set a new standard for the theatres of the country. His outstanding film, "The Toyshop" won the highest praise and honors ever given a short subject including the Photoplay Medal for that year. Later he was co-producer with F. W. Murnau of an epic picture of the South Seas, "Tabu", which won the Academy Award. Turning from Hollywood, Nagel toured almost every part of the world with his magic cameras, filming his "Romantic Journeys" for Educational Films, and "Paramount Color Cruises" for Paramount Pictures, as well as many of the well-known "Magic Carpets of Movietone" for 20th Century Fox Films. - h ' '' ..-W; ; vt;:.

World Affairs Week Initiated at Weber The week of Jan 15 - 20 the World Affairs Forum will present its annual World Affairs Week. This year's theme will be "International Human Rights, 1968". On Monday, two representatives from the Peace Corps will speak about the work and the future of the Peace Corps. Tuesday, James Gillespie, the Ogden Chairman of the National Association for Advancement Colored People will speak on the topic of "Civil Rights".

Mr. Hansen will speak in the auditorium on Friday at 11 a.m. Copper disappears Thieves come Theft of some $18,000 in electric copper cable last weekend temporarily halted construction of a $4 million science building at Weber State College. Capt. William Carver, chief of Weber State security, said four 5 foot reels of cable were removed from a temporary wooden structure last week end from the construction site. Salt Lake City police said the wire was found Tuesday afternoon in the Salt Lake area. The cable had apparently been burned by the thieves. The 10 tons of copper cable was apparently lifted with a winch truck owned by contractor Cannon-Papanicholas of Salt Lake City to another heavy truck. Ellis Jones, foreman for Cannon Papanicholas, said the reels were too heavy for astandard-three-quarter ton pick-up to carry. "Each reel is so havey a 2 12 ton winch could do little more than drag it across the ground," Jones said. WSC enrollment, Construction grow by Joe Winter quarter classwork began this week at Weber State College with an estimated 6,973 day and evening school enrolled for the 10 12 week period. Registration was held Jan. 3-4 in the college's Technical Education building under a new alphabetical system devised by the registrar's office. Students enrolled according to the first Initial of their last name instead of by class, as was done in previous quarters. Milton C. Mecham, WSC registrar, said registration lines were "smooth and unhampered during the two-day procedure." Some 890 sophomore, junior and senior students pre-registered during the end of autumn quarter which also speeded enrollment lines, he said. A total day and evening school enrollment of some 9,400 day and evening school students for 1968 fall quarter classes has been predicted by Dr. Robert A. Clarke, WSC administrative vice president.Dr. Clarke has also forecast the completion of two of the three current constructon projects by December 1968 to meet increased student enrollment. The most likely date set for completion of the $4.2 million science building and lecture hall complex is January or February of 1969, the campus planning department reported this week. The $2.2 million Union addition is hoped for completion by late 1968, but officials indicate that work may continue through March 1969. Plans for new building construction estimated at $5.8 million is scheduled to begin this year. A $1,150,000 administration building is scheduled to begin in March or April at the northeast corner of Tyler and Edvalson. The 43,000 square foot building Company officials also reported two reel jacks were missing. Capt. Carver said the theft probably occurred Saturday night, but workmen did not discover the cable was missing until they returned to work at 8:40 a.m. Monday morning.

|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.
