By Bob Vazquez, Assistant Athletic Director (Media Relations)
Northridge, Calif. – During the last several years, the Cal State Northridge men's basketball team has traveled across the country to many remote, small town locations.
The list includes Lawrenceville, NJ (Rider College), Cheney, Wa. (Eastern Washington), East Lafayette, Ind. (Purdue), Bowling Green, Ky. (Western Kentucky), Moscow, Id. (Idaho), Billings, Mt. (Montana), Carbondale, Il (Southern Illinois) and Normal, Il (Illinois State).
The latest travel destination was Cedar City, Utah where Cal State Northridge played Southern Utah University on Feb. 23.
Traveling to Cedar City was no easy task. It's almost a one day journey that required the Matadors to leave the CSUN campus early on Friday morning, fly from Burbank to Las Vegas, and then endure a three-hour bus ride from Las Vegas to Cedar City, Utah, a small city located in the southwest corner of the state of Utah.
Cedar City, Utah has a population of 20,000. It is home to the Utah Shakespeare Festival, the Neil Simon Festival, and the Great American Stampede. Within driving distance of Cedar City are five national parks – Zion, Bryce, Grand Canyon, Great Basin and Capitol Reef. If you're a skier, the Brian Head Ski Resort is nearby.
CSUN assistant coach Bob Lowe coached at Southern Utah for eight seasons (1992-00) where the Thunderbirds enjoyed great success on the basketball court. Thirteen years later, Lowe still remembers the place he once called home.
"A friendly place with friendly people," said Lowe. "My wife and I had a young son then. It was a great place to raise a family."
The trip to Cedar City, Utah, was short in length (Friday to Sunday) but exhaustive nevertheless.
Saturday, February 23, 2013
9:00 am – Wake up … It's time for a hearty breakfast … Today's temperature is expected to reach a high of 39 degrees with a night time low of around 10 degrees … Forget the morning walk for exercise … It's COLD !!! It's sunny but the weather forecaster expects light snow plus rain later in the day.
12:00 pm – On game day, all teams have a shoot around, a chance for each team to practice for one hour and prepare a final scouting report on their opponents. Despite the Utah state high school basketball championships later in the day at the Centrum (Southern Utah's home court), the Matadors have ample time to use the arena to prepare for Saturday night's game against SUU. Despite its age (built in 1985-86), the Centrum (SUU's 5,200 home court), is a beautiful on-campus arena that provides a great atmosphere for either basketball or volleyball.
12:45 pm – At the end of practice, CSUN always attempts half-court shots in case a game goes down the wire. On this day, the team and coaches miss all of their half court attempts except for one person, assistant coach Bob Lowe, who ironically coached at Southern Utah (1992-00).
1:00 pm – Back on the bus, it's back to the hotel for rest and a pre-game meal later in the day. The day started with sunny weather, but now the cloudy, cold weather has arrived. Snow is starting to fall.
5:45 pm – A heavy dose of snow has fallen in Cedar City as the Matadors trek in the snow from the hotel to the team bus. Even the experienced bus driver has a few problems navigating through the icy, slippery streets leading to the arena. But CSUN arrives safe and sound. For the 13-man CSUN traveling squad that is made up of Californians, this type of weather is a new experience.
7:00 pm – Cal State Northridge endures a tough loss. After enjoying a 13-point lead in the first half, Southern Utah fights back to record a 73-72 victory on a basket with time running out. The Matadors miss two shots in the final seconds. Losing in this type of fashion is tough especially on the road. The day is still not over. While the players check back into their rooms, the coaching staff spends a couple hours grading the film of the game in a nearby conference room. Good Night!!!
Sunday, February 24, 2013
8:00 am – Snow has continued to fall throughout the night and mounds of snow are everywhere in Cedar City. Somehow, someway, the team is bussing out of Cedar City for the three-hour ride to Las Vegas where they will catch a connecting flight to Los Angeles. Players will again use the bus trip to get more sleep or munch on breakfast.
Noon – Again the Las Vegas Airport is packed with people heading home to different parts of the country. Many of the passengers who were on the team flight from Los Angeles to Las Vegas are the people who are coming home after a weekend of gambling and just plain fun.
2:00 pm – The Matadors are greeted to the warm, sunny skies of the San Fernando Valley as the bus arrives on the CSUN campus. But the day is not over yet for the team. Study Hall starts in a couple hours.
Homeward Bound, Home Cooking, Home Sweet Home !!!

UNDATED (WSAU-Wheeler News) Wisconsin wildlife officials have reduced the number of spring turkey hunting permits they'll sell next week, to preserve a population that was hit hard by the severe winter.
Just over 425 permits in far northern zones 6 and 7will not be sold. Permits in zones 4 and 5 will be reduced by 25-percent, meaning that 866 will go unused. Those permits were left over after a recent lottery for applicants.
D-N-R wildlife ecologist Scott Walter said a heavy snow cover in northern Wisconsin has hurt the ability of turkey flocks to find adequate food -- and weather-related deaths could be significant. He said hunters have called for a reduced harvest.
Each of the five zones will have a one-day permit sale next week. Any remaining permits will be available next Saturday. The D-N-R's Web site has more information. About 38,000 turkeys were shot in last year's spring harvest -- and that was down 11-percent from 2012, due to a stormy season.

A Stock You Can Take Home to Mother
Peter is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Aflac is a niche-product insurer that sells supplemental health and life insurance in the US and Japan. Supplemental accident insurance dominates its US market, where Colonial Life, a subsidiary of the UNUM Group (NYSE: UNM), provides its strongest competition. Supplemental cancer insurance dominates Japanese sales. Investors interested in other US insurers with a strong presence in the lucrative Japanese insurance market should also take a close look at both MetLife (NYSE: MET) and Prudential (NYSE: PRU). Both got a boost by buying Japanese subsidiaries of AIG as that monster unwound assets. MetLife's Japanese Alico division competes directly, selling supplemental health policies. Prudential is less of a direct competitor with its focus on traditional life and annuities, but sits atop the pile as Japan's largest foreign life insurer. Aflac's a conservative, well-run company that's shareholder friendly. While this is a company you can safely take home to meet your mother, Aflac does face some challenges.
When search of great, long-term investments, The Motley Fool favors an analysis method tagged with the acronym 'SWOT.' The aim is to find the few key elements driving a stock, focusing sequentially on a company's Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats. Let's take a look at Aflac (NYSE: AFL).
- Shareholder friendly. Despite the recession, this Dividend Aristocrat's raised its dividend every year for the past 29 years. Aflac's 'widows-and-orphans' reputation is deserved.
- Leader in Supplemental Insurance. Everyone's familiar with the Duck and its message. In the US, Aflac sells supplemental insurance primarily to individuals, avoiding the more crowded group disability market. This niche focus allowed Aflac to carve out a leadership position and create a recognizable brand. In Japan, Aflac leveraged its low cost advantage over peers to ride its way to the top of the life insurance market.
- Presence in Japan. Japan's a great insurance market. Aflac leads the large and growing Japanese Life Insurance market with over 21 million policies in force (others are larger in terms of assets managed). Industry solvency is Job #1 for Japanese regulators, and price controls are a fact of life. Yet that rigid control has benefits, by limiting entry and protecting industry margins. Rates structured to make all providers profitable, mean wider margins for low-cost providers like Aflac.
- US softness. Aflac's sales model focuses on small business. Stalled small business job creation has hurt in the US, flattening Aflac's growth.
- Low yield environment, especially in Japan. The exceptionally low yield of the Japanese bond market provides a challenge to all Japanese insurers. The search for yield led to some missteps in the past as Aflac over-concentrated in European financial securities. Rebalancing of the portfolio remains an ongoing task as Aflac expands purchases into the US corporate market. Effective hedging of these new dollar-denominated bond positions will be critical.
- European investment challenges. Despite progress in rebalancing its investment portfolio, Aflac still has a great deal of European exposure. Even though better prepared this time around, Aflac will surely be hurt again if Europe worsens.
- Currency exchange issues. Aflac Japan books three quarters of Aflac's operating revenue. Yen to dollar swings mean lumpiness that can be judged harshly by the market at times. Long term investors can take advantage of these moments by ignoring the lumps and focusing on constant-currency results.
- Profit taking. Shares ran up well in the last six months and are near a 12-month high. Uncertainty surrounding the fiscal cliff and capital gains rates could lead to short term profit taking if the fiscal crisis isn't favorably resolved.
- Expansion of their Japanese bank sales channel. Aflac's benefiting from recently liberalized banking rules allowing banks to sell life insurance in Japan. The bank channel's WAYS product led to Aflac Japan's recent above-guidance growth. Ultimately, Aflac Japan hopes to cross sell other products to new customers initiated to the brand by WAYS. Look for progress in widening that bank channel.
- Group insurance in the US. Aflac emphasizes direct sale to individuals in the workplace. Recognizing a need to compete in the group disability market, Aflac bought Continental American Insurance Company, a group insurer in 2009. The going has been slow, but the group disability market provides a great deal of growth potential if they can establish a foothold.
- Fixing its yield problem. Aflac suffered investment losses throughout the recession forcing a run to quality in ultra-low yield JGBs. Ongoing adjustments will improve that yield in the future. Aflac's underwriting is consistently profitable, so none of that yield is required for benefits. It goes straight into the piggy-bank. Fixing the weak yield means more coin for piggy.
- Share repurchase opportunity. Past investment losses curtailed repurchases, cramping growth. With shares reasonably priced and buy-backs back on, sharecount will resume its downtrend, helping EPS growth in 2013 and beyond. Repurchases should also help stabilize shares as we teeter on the fiscal cliff.
- A double dip. It's obvious, but needs to be said. A double dip in the US and continued softness in small business creation will pressure Aflac US.
- Anything bad in Japan. Every event that affects Japan adversely, leads to selling of AFL shares. With its massive JGB exposure, financial uncertainty for Japan means financial uncertainty for Aflac.
- WAYS repricing issues. Aflac Japan recently applied to reprice a segment of its WAYS products and cut back on some of the purchase incentives that were denting the high-momentum product's margins. How that affects sales bears watching.
- Changes in competition as a result of Japanese Post Office reform. The Japanese Post Office sells life insurance, including Aflac cancer policies, in its branches. The Post's Kampo unit is a huge player in the insurance market. With postal reorganization ongoing, any direct foray of Kampo into supplemental health or change in Kampo's relationship with Aflac would be costly.

During the long night of violence leading up to the capture, the Tsarnaev brothers killed an MIT police officer, severely wounded another lawman and took part in a furious shootout and car chase in which they hurled explosives at police from a large homemade arsenal, authorities said.
Watertown Police Chief Edward Deveau said one of the explosives was the same type used during the Boston Marathon attack, and authorities later recovered a pressure cooker lid that had embedded in a car down the street. He said the suspects also tossed two grenades before Tamerlan ran out of ammunition and police tackled him.

|Post a Comment
But while handcuffing him, officers had to dive out of the way as Dzhokhar drove the carjacked Mercedes at them, Deveau said. The SUV dragged Tamerlan's body down the block, he said. Police initially tracked the escaped suspect by a blood trail he left behind a house after abandoning the Mercedes.
Chechnya, where the Tsarnaev family has roots, has been the scene of two wars between Russian forces and separatists since 1994. That spawned an Islamic insurgency that has carried out deadly bombings in Russia and the region, although not in the West.
Investigators have not offered a motive for the Boston attack. But in interviews with officials and those who knew the Tsarnaev brothers, a picture has emerged of the older one as someone embittered toward the U.S., increasingly vehement in his Muslim faith and influential over his younger brother.
The Russian FSB intelligence service told the FBI in 2011 about information that Tamerlan Tsarnaev was a follower of radical Islam, two law enforcement officials said Saturday.
According to an FBI news release, a foreign government said that Tamerlan Tsarnaev appeared to be strong believer and that he had changed drastically since 2010 as he prepared to leave the U.S. for travel to the Russian region to join unspecified underground groups.
The FBI did not name the foreign government, but the two officials said it was Russia. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk about the matter publicly.
The FBI said that in response, it interviewed Tamerlan Tsarnaev and relatives and did not find any domestic or foreign terrorism activity. The bureau said it looked into such things as his telephone and online activity, his travels and his associations with others.
An uncle of the Tsarnaev brothers said he had a falling-out with Tamerlan over the man's increased commitment to Islam.
Ruslan Tsarni of Montgomery Village, Md., said Tamerlan told him in a 2009 phone conversation that he had chosen "God's business" over work or school. Tsarni said he then contacted a family friend who told him Tsarnaev had been influenced by a recent convert to Islam.
Tsarni said his relationship with his nephew basically ended after that call.
As for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, "he's been absolutely wasted by his older brother. I mean, he used him. He used him for whatever he's done," Tsarni said.
Albrecht Ammon, a downstairs-apartment neighbor of Tamerlan Tsarnaev in Cambridge, said in an interview that the older brother had strong political views about the U.S. Ammon quoted Tsarnaev as saying that the U.S. uses the Bible as "an excuse for invading other countries."
Tamerlan Tsarnaev studied accounting as a part-time student at Bunker Hill Community College in Boston for three semesters from 2006 to 2008, the school said. He was married with a young daughter. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was a student at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth.
As of Saturday, more than 50 victims of the bombing remained hospitalized, three in critical condition.

A word from Sam's
Sam"s is not about reinventing the wheel. It's more about finding four wheels that we wanted to drive around the Boston Waterfront. The local bounty of New England's farms and artisans; the simplicity of an American Diner; the endless and timeless appeal of the French Bistro menu; and the warmth and welcoming spirit of our home.Continued
Located above Louis Boston on Fan Pier, Sam's is a 45 seat restaurant that offers stunning views of the Boston skyline and waterfront.
We are conveniently located next to the ICA and Boston Courthouse, and a short walk to the Boston Convention Center, World Trade Center, and Bank of America Pavilion.
During the warmer months, seating is available on our 80 seat patio. Reservations are only offered for the inside dining room, but please feel free to call about our wait times for outdoor seating.

- OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 9/28/2014everything had way to pepper. Did not order the peppercorn burger because I felt it would be to peppery. Good thing I didn't because my egg omelet had to much pepper. The waitress did not even ask why we where not eating our food or if everything was okay. Seemed to be a problem to her.
- disappointingOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/27/2014I booked a table through open table specifically asking for outdoor dining. Once I arrived at the time of our booking, no table outside was not available so we got a table near the entrance. I wish we were informed by mail or phone prior. We tried to get an outside table but the owner asked us to wait 40 minutes with no possibility to have a drink inside prior if we wanted to be outside.That was very disappointing as we chose this place based on that criteria. The food is ok and prices fair. However nothing special and choice very limited. The only good point of this place is outside seating assuming you can get it.Special Features:
- Great staff, food and drinksLECLECDined on 9/26/2014We had a great time at Sam's. Our group of 6 people was seated inside as soon as we arrived. It was freakishly warm out for late September and we asked if it was possible to get a table outside. The staff was very accommodating, we ordered drinks from the original table while they set up a 6 top outside. Drinks were great, as was food. I had the veggie burger which was pretty good, and the fries were amazing. Memorable comments from the rest of the group were that the peppercorn burger was out of this world delicious and the steak was just okay. My only gripe was that they had no real wine glasses, only stemless. The waiter said they don't stock them because of the outdoor seating and wind which I guess is reasonable.Special Features:
- Great vibe, food, view, serviceGypsea441Dined on 9/26/2014Great vibe - hip, set in a converted loft - outdoor patio seating on a balcony overlooking Boston Harbor in the Seaport area - and inside seating is contemporary yet very comfortable with huge floor to ceiling glass windows all the way around, so you feel like you're outside. Service was very attentive yet not intrusive. There were four of us ladies there with a lot of catching up to do, and we took over our table for a few hours. We never felt hustled to 'turn the table'. They accept reservations (nice). Food - excellent. Not a gazillion choices, but all high quality, and the way they meld flavors together and combinations was spot on. Upbeat, comfortable, casual place - great for a group gathering or a date.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great view and good foodL02118VIPDined on 9/23/2014The menu is small, but we found things to interest us. The burger was very good and the grilled plate. My husband really liked the grilled plate, though I thought the combo of foods was a little strange. I had low expectations of the food due to other reviews, but I found it very good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- melrickVIPDined on 9/22/2014Small menu but everything is delicious, awesome spot and great drinks. Love the feel and juxtaposition to Louis. Seasonal watermelon salad was a great starter.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- KnifemanDined on 9/14/2014Brunch with dad couldn't have been better. I'd recommend it any time. Go...eat...enjoy!Special Features:
- The View Saves Sam'sDiningWithDon1VIPDined on 9/13/2014A hidden gem right, smack on Boston's waterfront. This restaurant is on the 2nd floor of the stand alone Louis' clothing store. It is a neat looking, little bit of a throw-back/vintage, room. The room is small as are the tables (I couldn't imagine more than out 3 at the four-top we were eating at). It's a high rent district and the menu bears that out. The menu tries really hard, but the execution isn't as high end as the thought process. Everything was OK, nothing was bad but nothing was too impressive. However, the view is great and it is a nice place to take out-of-towners who will be impressed that you even know about it! That, itself, might be worth the price of admission!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always a hitECCDDined on 9/10/2014Sam's continues to provide a great dinning experience. Sure thingSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Workday lunchCharlestownGuyDined on 9/8/2014A colleague and I had a great lunch at Sam's. The outdoor seating is fabulous with a view over Boston harbor yet not too windy. The salmon was perfectly cooked. Solid beer and wine selection (though no draft beer). Service was just right. They even loaned my friend sunglasses since he had forgotten to bring his!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great OystersBzippyDined on 9/7/2014Oysters and cocktails, together with a magnificent view of Boston Harbor. The cocktails are crafted and delicious - tequila and strawberry liqueur, for example. Island Creek Oysters served cold, and expertly shucked, still in their own juices with a zesty cocktail sauce. The food would have received a five if they hadn't been out of their only seafood entre - swordfish. The kitchen sent a nice bluefish pate as an apology, but with that harbor view, you just can't run out of seafood! Nevertheless, a repeat for me!Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 9/7/2014As always amazing!! Loved the tofu& mushroom burger and best Aperol spritzers I have ever had. Was the perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon with friends. Can't wait to return!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BdaygirlDined on 9/5/2014Fabulous food, fabulous service. Always the wonderful view and this night a lovely breeze.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- First time at Sam's.TimeatsoutDined on 9/4/2014It was a great time. Food was great and service was excellent! From the bartenders to Rob Hall (I know his name because I stole his pen). Thank you for everything. I'll be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great!ket4Dined on 9/4/2014Fabulous view, very good food, and great atmosphereSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Overall great experiencedldegsDined on 9/4/2014This was my second visit to Sam's and both experiences were excellent. Great service with waiters who knew the menu and wine list, wonderful views, interesting and very tasty food and a view that can't be beat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fabulous first-timers' lunch...jharwarDined on 9/4/2014Our group regularly tries out new restaurants and Sam's at Louis on a clear blue, humidless summer day was a perfect choice. We opted to sit inside. Service was impeccable. Chilled beet soup with creme fraiche, fried oysters, an heirloom tomato and watermelon salad, and the greek salad with spicy lamb meatballs were equally flavorful. Two complaints: entrance is through a construction zone--surely a temporary constraint. And a request that a catfish po' boy be made with fried oysters was denied. Our charming waiter explained because the kitchen is small and food substitutions on the fly are difficult when busy. Understandable? I guess so. All in all, a fabulous dining experience. I would return and recommend.Special Features:
- Sam's on the WaterfrontOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 8/31/2014Great views; food was good. Service was only fair (waitress did not have a lot of personality). It did take a while to get the food even though it wasn't that busy.Special Features:
- Food was great. The view is perfectbafioDined on 8/31/2014We had good fun. Food was great. I had the 'falafel' and my wife the 'mixed grill' a sort of surf and turf. I guess my choice was the better of the two. View is perfectSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Surprising new favoriteKikiDined on 8/31/2014OMG! Let's talk about how delicious those wings were and how perfect the lemon drop martini was. I went with a friend who had been before and recommended it to our group for a late lunch and we were all pleasantly surprised. Everything from the tofu quinoa salad, the peppercorn burger, roasted chicken and andouille sausage were perfection!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great BrunchuseyourbrianDined on 8/31/2014Brunch was awesome; the menu might not be for everyone, since its very non-traditional, but the food is great.Special Features:
- never disappointsmariaVIPDined on 8/31/2014hadn't been to sam's for awhile. the burger was even more outstanding than usual, the salad light and flavorful and the lemon pound cake heavenly. we definitely have missed sam's this summer and will return again soon. este's warm hospitality always draws us back. thank you!Special Features:
- Lively for LunchProeverVIPDined on 8/30/2014Great place for lunch and cocktails after visiting the ICA or shopping at Louis. Very good, simple meals and a breathtaking view.Special Features:
- Great waterfront restaurantHSfoodieDined on 8/28/2014Great food and service as usual. Cannot beat the intimate, sophisticated ambiance and the unbelievable water views.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MedfordMollyDined on 8/27/2014Small plates - really good drinks - delicious view - fantastic, sunset and sailboats galore noise - construction next door not as bad as some say service - we really liked our waitress, down to earth nice person I'm going back next FridaySpecial Features:
- Great waterfront diningTodSDined on 8/24/2014Probably the best harbor views from Boston. Don't make a reservation (if the weather is nice), walk-in and put your name on the list for outdoor seating and wait (possibly a long time, was 45 minutes around sunset on an August Sunday evening). Food was great, service was great. Pricey, so probably not an anyday choice...Special Features:
- Fabulous Harbor view!OpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 8/24/2014We came for the view on a summer evening and were surprised by the very good food and outstanding service. We'll go back again soon.Special Features:
- Great brunch place with a viewBerryBerryGoodDined on 8/24/2014Stunning view over Boston harbor and the Boston skyline - big walls of glass means pretty much anywhere you sit you get a good view. Outdoor seating looked great, though we sat by the window indoors and were happy there. Food was quite good during brunch - a simple vegetable salad with some new potatoes was dressed with a good vinaigrette and topped with chopped egg. I accompanied it with a nice Vinho Verde. Well dressed brunchers filled the place, the type that would shop at Louis, the upscale clothing store downstairs. Very little street parking on a Sunday, valet was $10, nearby lots $16 or $25. Lots of construction going on nearby in the Seaport area but was a nice walk afterwards along the harbor.Special Features:
- Simply great!anifoodloverVIPDined on 8/23/2014Amazing food, OK prices and phenomenal ambiance. You must try the peppercorn burger and the tofy burger.Special Features:
- Spectacular view; lackluster foodCosmopolitanCowgirlDined on 8/22/2014The food was fine. Not great; just fine. But the view made up for the lack of culinary "wow." We arrived early and were able to grab a table on the patio, front-and-center. Amazing view, watching boats and planes alike. Great park down below us allowed kids at next table to run around a bit. Our server was splendid. One caveat: There is construction right now on the buildings adjacent to the Fan Pier and Sam's restaurant. If you are "noise sensitive," you should call the restaurant and check to see if they know if the contractor will be working late. We were there until 10 PM, and the guys were still working on the building next door! It was very loud at times, though no fault of the restaurant.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/22/2014My salmon was amazing!! And it's hard to get me excited about salmon. I usually eat it because it's healthy. My salmon dish at Sam's is a dish I would go back to have again - it was that good. All the layors of flavors! I can't say enough.Special Features:
- Lively spot, Great locationLisaDined on 8/21/2014My friends and I enjoyed our dinner at Sam's. The food was pretty good- especially the small plates (apps) and the ambiance, festive. Can't beat the location on the harbor.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Beautiful viewNNlovesFoodDined on 8/17/2014This restaurant has stunning water view. The food was fantastic! I had mixed grills and it was perfect. I may recommend to add grilled shrimp to the dish since it called mixed grills. There are 2 squids and chorizo mainly and grilled corn & potatoes. However, it's delicious!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 8/17/2014GREAT FOOD, OUTSIDE, VIEW OF BOSTON HARBOR - WHO COULD ASK FOR MORE? SLIGHTLY APART FROM THE MORE CROWDED LEGAL HARBORSIDE AREA, WHICH FOR US WAS A GOOD THING. THE MEAL WAS OUTSTANDING, ALTHOUGH SLIGHTLY MORE COSTLY THAN EXPECTED WITH THE $$ RATING IT GOT.Special Features:
- Sams was goodOpenTable Diner Since 2004Dined on 8/15/2014Sams was good. The food was tasty. The service was a bit spotty. When ordering our server gave me the all too often received follow up when asked how do you want your burger cooked...medium rare...oh we only cook it well done...that being said she did explain it was a function of the burgers being thin, which, when it came out, despite being not pink, was plenty juicy and tasty. My problem is with the question, not the burger itself, the burger was goodSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- My favorite waterfront spotChanteuseDined on 8/15/2014SAMs is my go to place for lunch, dinner or drinks downtown. Take a walk on the Harborwalk. And then eat at SAMs. Friendly service and the food is great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Get there before it's goneOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 8/14/2014The building cranes are closing in on Sam's and this little gem of a restaurant overlooking a quiet stretch of the Harbor Walk will soon give way to another Seaport Development. Chilled beet soup to burgers this lunch menu stretches from foodie food to businessman's lunch but never disappoints.Special Features:
- Sunday summer brunchatq123Dined on 8/10/2014Came here with a few friends last Sunday. We sat outside and the view is hard to beat - right on the water. Attentive wait staff. Two of us ordered the "Gypsy Eggs" and enjoyed it. One of us ordered the "Pig in a Blanket" - sausage with ricotta pancake. The price charged for that dish was less on the bill than on the menu, for some reason. I would've ordered that instead of the omelet, had I known. My omelet was pretty good, with goat cheese, tomatoes, and smoked potatoes all inside. But it also had a heap of potatoes on the side, which I felt was not very creative, given the omelet had potatoes inside. I asked for an English muffin instead of toast, but apparently that's a separate charge. Jeez. We also split the lemon poundcake. Meh.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good restaurant, poor managementallisonDined on 8/9/2014My sister and niece were visiting Boston for the first time. Since the warm season is so beautiful and so short, we thought Sam's would be the best place to soak up the heat and eat a great meal with the view - after all, it's one of our favorites. As always, the meal and service were spectacular. The reason I will never again recommend this place to out of town guests was the poor communication on behalf of the management. You see, we reserved this place because we wanted a waterside dinner. I requested it on the reservation. No one called to tell me that would not be possible, and if I had known, we would have opted for another restaurant. The dinner experience we recommended and so badly wanted was ruined.Special Features:
- A Little gemmbdinBostonDined on 8/9/2014The food, the staff, the location. It's always a great time. Esti is the best.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

A Chicago man who won $1 million from a scratch-off lottery ticket says he plans to use the winnings to invest in college funds for his young sons.
Edgardo Torres bought the Cash Spetacular instant ticket from Smokey Bear's at 8701 S. Kedzie Ave. while redeeming another instant ticket that won him $10, according to the Illinois Lottery.
His sons, ages 8 and 14, started jumping up and down after he realized he'd won and told them the good news, Torres told lottery officials.
"Seeing them so happy made me smile. I suddenly realized that taking care of their education will be easier now," Torres said in a statement, adding he plans to use the money to invest in college funds.
He also plans to buy a new home and take the boys to visit family in his native Puerto Rico, the statement said.
The store will receive a $10,000 bonus for selling the lucky ticket.

Welcome to the first edition of the We Love Our Farmers photo series! We love hearing about what's happening on the Small Farm Central farms from our farmers, but we love seeing it in their websites even more. This is why we will be featuring photos taken by our farmers on the Small Farm Central blog. In this edition, we feature the charming goats from Whitmore Farm.
"We photograph all of our goats when they are born. This is a Tennessee Fainting
Goat born on our farm on March 15th. We load up the ones that are for sale for breeding
stock on the website."
-Will Morrow, Whitmore Farm
Last summer, we made some important updates to our Pickup List tool in order to increase it's usefulness. If you haven't explored this feature yet, you will find that the information that you recieve when you generate a Pickup List will not only to help you prepare for your deliveries but is also great to give to your drivers and site managers, ensuring that every dropoff site gets exactly what it needs. As you get into the swing of your regular deliveries this summer, it's a good idea to learn about or reacquaint yourself with this helpful tool.
The Pickup List tool can be found in the Member Assembler area of your Control Panel. Simply navigate to the Members section and choose Pickup Lists.
Here you can generate a list for all pickup locations and member types or you can create more specific lists by choosing which locations and member types to display. If a member type has an option you don't want displayed (a bi-weekly option, for example), you can exclude that option from the pickup list.
The pickup lists that you create can easily be printed out to use or distribute to your staff. When you generate your list, you have the option of just creating a list for the next week of pickups or you can choose what specific dates you want pickup lists to display. Then, print out just what you need for now or print out the entire season's lists.
Your lists can be as basic or as detailed as you need it to be. They can simply be a list of member names and member types or can include information such as phone numbers, member notes, member balances, and more. There is even an option to include a check box next to each member's information. Leave a list at each pickup location so that your members can check off they they picked up their share.
But the Pickup List tool doesn't stop there!
Want to integrate your E-commerce orders into your pickup lists? Simply fill out the date parameters and the tool will include all E-commerce orders made during that time period. Orders from that day through the time you generate your list will be included. Need to include specific instructions to your crew? Use the field at the bottom of the page to include notes for your drivers or site managers. Or, insert your logo there. You can even use the pickup lists tool to create packing labels. At the top of the page, choose "Packing labels" from the View/Print menu option. These will be formatted to fit on Avery 5163 labels available through most office supply stores.
As you can see, the pickup lists tool has the power and flexibility to provide a wide range of information so everyone involved in the delivery and pickup of your CSA orders gets just the information they need.
You're done taking signups and may have even delivered a few weeks of shares... it's official, the Summer CSA season is underway. While your CSA tasks shift from planning and marketing to harvesting and packing, your days will be dominated by the familiar tools and machinery of farm work.
But don't forget that Small Farm Central has it's own set of tools that you can use throughout the season to run a smooth CSA program. In addition to the Box Builder, which we talked about in the blog last week, this summer we'll be writing about other features of our websites and Member Assembler software that can make your season run smoothly.
Additionally, Small Farm Central wants to help your members get the information and tools that they need to be successful CSA subscribers, so look for more posts that include content that you can use on your websites and share through newsletters. Here are two videos that we created with simple cooking recipes for two of the early share items: radishes & asparagus.
Visit the Small Farm Central YouTube channel here: http://bit.ly/csafarmhandvids to view the video descriptions, which include full recipe instructions. To learn how you can embed these videos on your website, check out the article "Inserting HTML Code into Your Website" in the SFC Knowledge Base. Need some help? Email us at email@example.com.

World Environment Day happens every year on June 5th and while it may not be as popular as its cousin, Earth Day, they are both centered around the idea of raising awareness for environmental protection issues.
This year's WED theme is "Think, Eat, Save: Reduce your Foodprint" and it aims to encourage people to become more aware of the environmental impact of food waste and food loss in the food supply. The World Environmental Day website has many suggestions for how people can make changes to reduce their "foodprint", and pinpoints buying naturally grown local foods one of the most important ones:
"Making informed decision means, for example, that you purposefully select foods that have less of an environmental impact, such as organic foods that do not use chemicals in the production process. Choosing to buy locally can also mean that foods are not flown halfway across the world and therefore limit emissions."
Since your CSA members and Farmers' Market customers are already taking this vital first step, here are some other ways that you can help them to reduce their "foodprint" even further and prevent the sin of wasting the fruits of your labor, literally. In honor of World Environmental Day, consider adding the follwoing information to your website, or include it as a blurb in your next newsletter.
-Encourage food waste composting. If food must be tossed, this is the most responsile way to process it. You may even be able to accept food waste from your members for your own composting system, if your local government doesn't have restrict it.
-Educate about proper food storage and preservation. This can reduce the anxiety of recieving too much of something in their CSA and encourage customers to buy more seasonal items and freeze or can them for future use.
-Make meal planning easier. Use email to let people know what will likely be in their CSA share or availalbe at the next Farmers' Market. This helps your customers plan Meal planning and list-making reduces impulse purchase and over-buying, which can lead to uneated, waste food.
Happy World Environmental Day! Thanks for being good stewards of our Earth!
We quietly built and released a new feature for Member Assembler last Fall - the Box Builder. This tool allows a CSA to design each week's CSA box as far as what products will go into each size of box, target an overall box value, and then retrieve harvest amounts needed to fill the boxes for the week.
This feature is available in the control panel right now under: Member Assembler > Box Builder. Check out the Box Builder help document for more details about how to use this tool.
As May turns to June, many of our CSAs will start delivering CSA shares, so this tool will now become useful. This is certainly not a tool that you need to use with your CSA and the Member Assembler system does not force you to use this, but it may help you be more organized and keep precise records of what went into each box. It also spits out a report that you can hand directly to your field managers so they know what to pick for that delivery day.
We are still learning how people will use this tool, so please give me some feedback as you try out the box builder by emailing simon*at*smallfarmcentral.com. I am especially interested in what kinds of statistics you would like to gather from the system.
A farmer just wrote me, "We are having a spring from hell. Winter snow didn't leave the fields til May so planting sequencing a challenge. You never catch up when it starts wrong we are finding out. We also are dealing with five inches of rain so each field has chronic wet spots."
I know this is a pretty widespread experience from reading the discussion on the CSA Farmer Discussion and following the chatter of farmers here in western Pennsylvania. When I was in Colorado visiting farmer friends at the beginning of May, we woke up to 8 inches of snow on the ground (see photo). So, I think it is safe to say that it has been a tough Spring for a lot of vegetable growers.
My only advice in a tough growing season is to lean on your CSA members and take advantage of the lines of communications and trust that you have built over the years. My CSA farm had a freeze scare over the weekend and they spent the weekend updating members via Facebook on the great lengths taken to cover an acre of tender nightshades from the frost. Thankfully, the plants all survived, but this sort of communication connects members to the farm and the challenges of farming. This kind of communication will lead to understanding from members later in the season, when, for example, tomatoes are later than normal or not as plentiful.
When you grow a wide variety of crops, there is the hope that when one crop doesn't grow well due to the weather, another crop that is more adaptable to the weather will take over and provide a bounty. Bad weather, frosts, floods, hail storms, drought, and more will inevitably happen over the years, so if we can find anything good in these situations and use it is as teachable moment for members (while, of course, mitigating the damage as much as possible!) you are ahead of the game and taking the greatest advantage the CSA model and the community you have built.
Some of you are lucky enough to live in a region with the kind of weather that allows for fresh food to be sold from outdoor stands and tables all year-round. Those of us in the East, however, feel the rising anticipation for Farmers Market Season all spring long. Now, as seasonal markets get rolling, us Easterners are ready to fill our tote bags with early offerings like rhubarb and radishes.
While the market's goods must obey the regional conditions of the growing season, the nature of the market's operations allow for flexibility in the way business is done. Special relationships with customers are built, deals can be made, and bartering occurs. Read about two new ways that Farmers Markets are changing in order to better meet their community's needs.
Here in Pittsburgh, the Citiparks Farmers Markets, with the help of the Just Harvest Organization, are testing out a way to allow customers to pay with their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Access cards, credit, or debit cards. Cards are swiped through an electronic card reader and the patron is given wooden tokens to spend at participating market stalls. Similar systems are in place and popping up in markets across the country. Click the links below to read more about existing programs and how you can start this at your market:
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - Citiparks markets to accept food stamps
Vermont - Vermonters of all incomes can access farmers' markets
USDA Information - Learn how you can accept SNAP Benefits at Farmers' Markets
The term "food desert" is often used to describe neighborhoods and districts where there is little or no access to the fresh foods needed to maintain a healthy diet. There can be more than one accessibility issue at play, but major issues are usually related to location, transportation, education and finances. However, some organizations are trying a new approach to the traditional location-based Farmers' Market by putting produce on wheels and taking it to the people who aren't able to access it. Here's the buzz:
Norfolk, Virginia -Mobile farmers markets infuse fresh foods
Baton Rouge, Louisiana - Mobile farmers market serving 'food deserts' in EBR

I have been thinking a lot about how video can teach people about how to prepare good food and how video can be used as marketing for farms and CSAs. I came across the great video from Kitchen Vignettes. Not a single word is spoken. It is just video of harvesting, chopping, and packing sauerkraut. This is great!

We've heard from several of our customers who operate on Apple products that they have had a problem generating an Excel spreadsheet export of data in their admin: orders, members, invoices, etc. We believe we have corrected the issue and you should be able to generate exports now without issue. There will just be one extra step, however, when you open the file and that is to choose the delimiter: Just choose tab, not comma or semi-colon. Many of your notes and other fields in your data use commas so to get everything to line up in the right place, you need to select tab and only tab. Please let us know if you need any help with this or if you continue to have problems with exports.

No team was as big a surprise last season as the Milwaukee Bucks. Coming off of a campaign where they went 34-48 and had an injury-plagued Michael Redd as their lone star, few saw the Bucks as much of a threat in the East. However, in head coach Scott Skiles' second season with the club, the Bucks tightened up the defense, put their fortunes in the hands of Andrew Bogut and Brandon Jennings and worked their way to a 12-win improvement and the sixth seed in the Playoffs. They may not have been a powerhouse, but their ability to catch the league off guard has a lot of people looking closer at them now trying to figure out if they can not only do it again, but if they can improve upon last year's achievements.
The Bucks, for the part, have not rested on their laurels of last season. They acted swiftly this summer, trading for small forward Corey Maggette, inking power forward Drew Gooden to a five-year contract in free agency and re-signing swingman John Salmons to a fresh five-year deal. They tweaked their roster around the edges, too, upgrading their perimeter with Keyon Dooling and Chris Douglas-Roberts and snatching power forward Larry Sanders in the draft. Heck, even when they weren't making moves they were improving, as Ersan Ilyasova led his silver-medal-winning Turkish National Team in scoring in this summer's FIBA World Championships. For the Bucks, there was very little to be disappointed with this summer.
What comes next, though, is anyone's guess. They were a sixth seed a year ago, and how much room they have for improvement is unclear. If we are to assume that Miami, Orlando, Boston and Atlanta or Chicago are pretty safe bets for the top seeds in the East, then it's hard to see how Milwaukee beats any of them in a seven-game series (except maybe Atlanta, a team they almost knocked out last spring). Their biggest issue comes down to the fact that, as well-rounded as they are, they lack that defining superstar. In a way that is a blessing, as they are not locked-in long term to a burdensome contract like Michael Redd has been (his $18.3-million deal expires at season's end), but when it comes to winning in the post-season it is excessively hard to do it without a bona fide All-Star leading the way.
The hope for Milwaukee, then, is that Bogut and Jennings as a tandem prove too overwhelming for a less balanced team. After all, the Bucks are a tremendous defensive group (they were eighth in the league in opponents field-goal percentage and third in the league in defensive efficiency last year), which is a great starting point, and the pairing of centre and point guard could conceivably be enough to pull off an upset of a team looking beyond them in the first round. Remember that as something of a one-man onslaught, Jennings averaged 18.7-points-per-game in the Playoffs last season, going for 34, 23 and 25 in games 1, 4 and 5. His efficiency was low, but he was basically working on his own offensively to try and upset the Hawks in the first round. If he has Bogut to play off of, one of the least appreciated bigs in the league, as well as Maggette's offensive arsenal alongside him, the team could match their defensive strengths with some potent offensive firepower. Nothing is guaranteed, but you have to appreciate a club that at least seeks to improve up on success without torpedoing their future cap space to do so.
Now that the league sees them coming, it will be very interesting to see if this club can maintain their high-level of play from the back half of last season. If they can, then the league will have found the heir-apparent to the blue-collar Detroit teams of the last decade, a hard-working foil to all of the flashier teams that are being built on the east coast of the NBA.
PG – BRANDON JENNINGSIt's not often that a coach hands the reigns of his club to a rookie point guard as willingly as Scott Skiles did with Jennings a year ago, but clearly it takes a former point guard to see when such a decision is warranted. Jennings' future, though, is completely tied to how quickly he can take his explosive scoring prowess and turn it into an efficient and complete offensive attack. His 37.1% shooting will not cut it in an era when the league's top point guards hover around 50%, nor will 5.7 assists cut it when you're turning the ball over 2.4 times per-game. That said, Jennings made tremendous strides in rounding out his game mentally as the season wore on, even as his body started to feel the fatigue of playing 33-minutes every night as a rookie. If he can keep growing that mental game, the team may even be able to claim to have a superstar of their own to lead their gritty, workaday roster.
SG – JOHN SALMONSIt's pretty safe to say that whenever Michael Redd returns from his latest injury (projections peg his return at around February), he won't be a featured member of this club. Salmons was traded to the team at the deadline last season and invigorated their scoring just enough to put them over the hump and into the Playoffs in the East. The worry is that when he was traded to Chicago the year before, he averaged 18.3-points and convinced the Bulls they could afford to lose high-scorer Ben Gordon because of his presence. However, last season Salmons' scoring dropped to 15.4-points before his trade to Milwaukee (and a scoring jump back up to 19.9-ppg). Simply put, the Bucks do not want to see a repeat of that fall-off after committing $40-million to him over the next five years.
SF – COREY MAGGETTEThis is a last-minute switch on my part, mostly because I'm too chicken to do what I believe will happen next season, which is Skiles will continue to go with Carlos Delfino at this spot while bringing Maggette in off of the bench. That's because Delfino, while not as potent a scorer as Maggette, is a more versatile player and plays with more intensity at the defensive end. However, Maggette had a career-year last year as it pertained to his percentages (51.6% from the floor) and if he can maintain that level of production then it might make him too potent to use as just a hired gun off of the bench.
PF – DREW GOODENThese are the kinds of deals that leave casual fans scratching their heads while stat heads smile in agreement (sorta). Gooden doesn't do anything that jumps off of a traditional box score, but he's a high-percentage guy who rebounds, plays defense and knows how to help a team win. He is comfortable playing in the high-post, while leaves more room for Andrew Bogut to operate down low, he rebounds extremely well, ranking seventh last year in rebound rate amongst power forwards, and every season he brings those same qualities to the table. You never have to wonder what you're going to get from Gooden, you only have to ask how badly you need what he brings. The Bucks were clearly enamoured of his fit with their club (they signed him within hours of free agency opening up) and he would appear to fit the gaps they paid him to fill. What more could you ask for from your free agent dollars?
C – ANDREW BOGUTBogut was primed to have a breakout in the Playoffs last year before a terrible tumble knocked him out of action within weeks of the start of the post-season. After having a career-year to that point, averaging 15.9-points and 10.2-rebounds per-game, and playing killer defence, Bogut was left to watch from the sidelines as his team was narrowly knocked out by the Hawks in seven games. While questions remain as to whether or not he'll be healthy enough to start the season, Bogut needs to find a way to stay on the court for a full season (he's only averaged 66.2 games-per-season in his career) so the world can see how good a player he's become. Of course, the Bucks are probably even more invested in keeping him on the court because as good as he is when healthy, if he's not playing then his skill isn't doing the team a lick of good. If they want to take the next step as an organization, he needs to be a healthy part of the ascension.

June 2, 2014 /MM-prReach/ —
Dr. Mark C. Beal, general and cosmetic dentist in Boston, MA is offering patients the chance to achieve a straight, beautiful and confident smile without the use of unattractive wires and brackets required by traditional braces. Using Invisalign treatment, Dr. Beal's patients can feel confident with their smiles even while undergoing orthodontic treatment through the use of the Invisalign near-invisible oral devices.
Invisalign treatment consists of clear, soft plastic aligners that are custom made for each patient. Over the course of 9-18 months, Invisalign patients wear a series of these aligners that gradually shift teeth into alignment. The aligners are virtually invisible when worn, but are becoming an increasingly popular treatment because they are also completely removable, offering patients more lifestyle flexibility.
"The Invisalign procedure is in high demand especially with our adult patients who have wanted a straight smile for years, but absolutely don't want to resort to traditional metal braces out of concern of how it will affect their image," said Dr. Mark Beal, Invisalign dentist in Boston, MA. "But with Invisalign, patients can still feel confident about their smile even while they're working to make it more attractive."
Invisalign has been proven to be effective in treating moderate to mild orthodontic issues, such as gapping, crowding, underbites, overbites, and crossbites. To complete the process, Dr. Beal uses the latest 3D imaging technology to create a series of different aligners that the patient replaces approximately every 2-3 weeks throughout the course of treatment. Patients are instructed to wear their aligners 22 hours per day and remove them while eating, drinking, and brushing. Invisalign offers patients the flexibility to completely remove the aligners for special occasions such as photographs, interviews, meetings, reunions, etc.
In addition to Invisalign treatment, Dr. Beal and his staff offer a wide range of other general, restorative, and cosmetic dental procedures to provide patients with the happiest, healthiest smile possible. Beyond general procedures such as fillings, extractions, root canals and crowns, Dr. Beal also offers veneers, teeth whitening, and dental implants in Boston, MA for patients who have missing or failing permanent teeth.
Dr. Beal has more than 40 years of experience as a practicing dental professional. A native of the Boston area, he attended Clark University for his undergraduate studies and then received his DMD degree from Tufts School of Dental Medicine in 1973. Dr. Beal stays current with the latest tools, techniques, and procedures in dentistry and regularly attends continuing education lectures and courses in order to provide his patients with the best level of care. He is a member of the ADA, Massachusetts Dental Society, the American Academy of Dental Science, and the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.

Fantasy sports: Turning fliers into pure gold
Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not waste picks late in fantasy drafts.
After we've established our starters and prime bench, the draft is far from over. We can still mine the field for lottery tickets. The qualities to look for in these "fliers" are talent, that they are on an explosive offense or are older players still leading depth charts:
Pick up the receiver
Oftentimes, the best fliers are wideouts. That's because most teams use at least three of them every Sunday and guys can come from way off the radar — like Jordy Nelson and Victor Cruz last season.
This year, it's worth rolling the dice on the young studs in elite passing offenses. Brandon?LaFell is locked into the No. 2 job in Carolina. The Packers won't be able to keep Randall?Cobb's raw talent off the field. Titus Young is tearing the cover off Lions camp and Kendall?Wright is poised to take advantage of Kenny Britt's various issues.
Depth and trade bait
At other positions, we're far less likely to turn our late-round lottery tickets into gold. But we can build our depth for bye weeks and develop trade assets. A good example of that would be taking a flier on the rocket-armed and fleet-footed Jake Locker. He's not our QB1, but he'll be a valuable piece.
At tight end, second-year man Kyle Rudolph has been the unquestioned star of Vikings camp. He's playing the "F" spot in the offense, the same position that tight end Aaron
Hernandez plays in New?England. Coby Fleener is getting all the hype in Indy, but fellow rookie Dwayne Allen is the every-down guy.
Running backs are so valuable in fantasy that few ever get to the flier range. Once everyone realizes Evan Royster is the starter in Washington, he'll scream up rankings.
