Scheme Outline
Upgrade of the existing two-lane M2 to three and four lane plus hard shoulder carriageways as far as junction 4. The upgrade is largely 'parallel' - a second carriageway is constructed alongside the existing motorway, with the present two carriageways eventually becoming one single wide carriageway. The scheme also includes massive upgrades to substandard junctions and the construction of a second Medway Bridge.
It's over!

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I too rolled a paladin very early on and expected the same things, as I think many did. Got a big two handed mace, cool auras, and a holy light spell. I expected seals to be something "extra" that would augment instant attacks for a little more damage.
The holy tree became my least favorite tree because of all the healbotting I did for years. I felt kinda tricked (not purposely of course) by Blizzard as I was forced into the back of raids.
I too hold onto the hope that things will change for the better in WotLK. If some paladins love their holy roles, that's fine, and I seriously hope we get another healing spell in the expansion (we were the only healing class to not get one last round), but for me, I think the paladin class needs a revamp along it's "melee hybrid" origins.

No secret sauce - just focus on your employees
I wrote an article titled "360 Degrees of Loyalty." The article was about the various aspects of developing loyalty in business - internal, external and parallel.
The internal dimension that I spoke of was from the employee perspective. As a poor example, I referenced a line from "Ben Hur": "We keep you alive to serve this ship. So row well - and live."
Some may appreciate and like the reference, others won't, but the message is simply that we can't expect great results without taking great care of our employees.
An excerpt from that blog: "I can tell you that there are many organizations out there that marginalize employee engagement. Any organization that isn't focused on this is missing the boat." No pun intended.
Several creative programs are out there from recognition to reward. Employee satisfaction surveys, forums and suggestion systems all help to gather the employee's voice and input. However, it's all for naught if no action is taken to optimize the working environment for your internal and most valuable resources. Isn't it better to have a highly trained, happy and motivated organization than the opposite? This can all be achieved - within reasonable limits - as long as you hold employee engagement as a key strategy.
A ton has been written about employee engagement and job satisfaction. This article is not so much about the textbook, but more about practical application.
No secret in the sauce - I once worked for a major consumer electronics support company that had several challenges - in earlier days, one of those challenges being employee satisfaction. Let's get to the results of our multi-year program, and then explain how we achieved those results - at least in part. The results were that we improved employee satisfaction every year for eight years straight, even through a recession and wage freezes. A noteworthy call out was their high faith in senior leadership.
OK, so how'd we do it? No secret sauce really, as much of what we did is commonly applied. The difference was that we created a strong working environment, beyond the fundamentals of job training, role definition, physical environment, competitive wages and benefits. I consider those foundational elements, but suggest that more is needed.
Setting the tone - As leaders, we need to encourage and demonstrate our true intentions of supporting employees within the senior team. Organizations will adapt to the philosophies of leadership so setting the tone is crucial.
Open communications - Employees will appreciate hearing from leadership. It's about regular communications on how the organization is doing. It may also be about walking the halls and speaking to people in a casual setting. Silence is not golden with respect to communicating with employees - of course, within reason, appropriateness and due confidentiality.
Employee engagement - People love to be part of the solution. Consider employee engagement teams. These groups represent the employees in their area and are another mechanism to harvest thoughts and ideas from your organization.
Ask for ideas - The classic "suggestion box" has been around forever, but really the concept is a powerful one. Whatever the process followed, ask your employees to make suggestions, while informing them that not all suggestions can be implemented for any number of business conditions or reasons. We deployed an online system called "suggestion central." Our system allowed employees to make recommendations virtually on any topic - posted guidelines were in effect. Yet having a system in place is only part of what's needed. Read on.
Execute appropriate ideas - It is almost guaranteed that great ideas will come from your employee base - via whatever system you use. It is essential that some of these recommendations are put into practice. With our system, the difference was that the senior leadership team met every Friday to review the recommendations. If practical, we assigned the action item for deployment, or if not, communicated back to the employee for the reasons why we couldn't take action. We established a 360- degree loop of communication from employee to leadership and back to employee.
Recognition and thanks - Motivation techniques will often identify that people like to feel appreciated and recognized for their contribution. Create an environment that does just that. Customer recognition, colleague recognition, contribution recognition, any form of "attaboy/girl." Don't forget to say, "Thanks." "Thanks for working so hard." "Thanks for having such a great attitude." "Thanks for representing our company so well."
The personal touch - Face time -meetings/greetings - between employees and leadership helps to build needed relationships. Birthday celebrations, anniversary lunches and walking around with casual greetings are all great ways to tear down perceived barriers and inject the human element.
Share the joy- Let your employee base know about all the good things that are happening, letting them know of the various good things that are being done with your team. It actually acts as motivation technique.
Have a little fun - Yes, business is a serious issue and every employee needs to realize the importance of a serious, mindful attitude toward organizational success. But along the way, you might want to consider creating an environment that people look forward to working in.
Straight talk - Open communications - at whatever level is appropriate for you - is important. It's not all happy talk though. Sometimes some straight talk is required due to business conditions. I've had to send out notes about no company events, pay freezes and other tough medicine. However, the flip side is to discuss the "why." "The reason we're doing this is to tighten our belt, avoid layoffs and strengthen our base." These are all examples.
Through our national recession, there were things we had to cut back on for these reasons. Yet, we didn't lay off a single employee either. Trust me when I say that employees will appreciate the things you do to preserve the employment and security. It's not a ploy. It's a reality and developing a sense of confidence is crucial.
So there are some ideas about focusing on employees. Ultimately, the bottom line - financially speaking - often dictates what we are allowed to invest in. I suggest that investing in your employees is one of the smarter investments you can make.
That company I mentioned experienced eight years of increasing customer satisfaction, eight years of No. 1 industry leadership customer ratings and eight years of outstanding financial results.
By the way, our attrition was also rock bottom for that type of work. Coincidence? I don't think so.

Originally called the Spread Eagle, this was an 18th century coaching inn on the London to Newmarket road, now known as the Eagle and owned by the Toby carvery chain, the pub serves a mean roast and to my surprise curry alongside the ample vegetables on offer. The selection of meats is good and the refresh rate is great due to the popularity of the restaurant. I have tried most of the local competition and this is one of my favourites for a good value easy feast. I must admit to being initially shocked at the addition of the curry (I presume to add to the variety) but after watching my 12 year tucking in with out hesitation I just had to have a little taste. You have not lived until you pile your plate with a fine carvery alongside a lamb bhuna and rice!!!!
My conclusion is that I am yet to find a pub chain that does a good curry, interesting that it is an option but I doubt if people will flock for the Asian cuisine. As for the roast, well keep up the good work, the vegetable selection was great and well cooked with the al dente bite I like, definitely gets a re-visit from me.
Final thought: Eagle Pond, nearby, takes its name from this pub and is located 5 min walk up Snaresbrook Road take some bread to feed the ducks you'll need the walk after your feast.
I often go to the Eagle, the food is tasty, and does a good value early bird offer. The staff are really friendly and the decor amusing.
As my husband is disabled, we find the large car park to have well marked bays close to the ramp which leads to the side door of the dining area.
An imposing building dating from the 18th century, this is a pleasant pub and carvery. We always seem to visit more in summer, to enjoy a long drink whilst sitting outside reading the papers after lunch. Unfortunately the outside space was halved when they built the adjoining accomodation lodge but it is still worth a visit. The inside area is spacious yet cosy and very comfortable so would be great in the colder weather also. The restaurant area has lots of little areas giving it a more intimate feel. Not the most up to date decoration (think your aunt's chintz) but the walls are covered in amusing photos, cartoons and artwork from classic tv and films. Something to giggle at if there is a queue for the carvery counter! Worth the wait though - tender meat, great choice of vegertables and delicious gravy. I defy anyone to leave without feeling stuffed (or is that just me being piggy?)!
well, where shall I start. I have been going to the eagle for years with them slowly getting worse. last night I went 5.45 and at the carvery there was no mash, roasters, brocchli or gravy apart from vegetarian.
complained to the waitress, who very nicely organised a plate of the missing items for me. The roast beef was so tough, I was in fear of my fillings!!!!
Never before have I had to put half chewed beef into a napkin.
went with my friend to pay and asked for the manager. She said that as I'd paid she couldn't do anything. I should have complained before. I did twice to the waitresses, but evidently that doesn't go anywhere.
I have previosly complained on their actual website about 2 months ago, but still no answer. I thought I would give them one last chance.
That was it - never again :(

Hello, I would like to invite all Sasquatch 2013 attendees to Animal Day. If you're going to the festival this year, consider dressing up as an animal on SUNDAY THE 26th (there is also a full moon that night, spooky!) If this seems like something that you would enjoy, please share this event with your friends and click "attending" on facebook. It's a really fun way to meet new people! One of my favorite parts of Sasquatch last year was running into fellow animals. This year we are trying to get more creative- lights and glitter are very encouraged ;)
Thank you and have a lovely day :)))))
please note the day of the event has been changed from Saturday to Sunday
the big animal dance party will take place at Edward Sharpe on the main stage

Weapons owned by the Cayce Department of Public Safety's police chief were stolen from his car at his home, according to DPS spokesperson Lt. Jeffrey Simmons.
Simmons says the thief broke into Chief Charles McNair's car sometime between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. on Wednesday.
Among the items stolen in the case are a .40 caliber Glock handgun, a Remington 12-gauge pump action shotgun, and a $600 bullet proof vest.
Cayce Police are investigating how the thief managed to enter the car because there were no signs of forced entry. They are currently processing the car and the scene for evidence.
Simmons says he's not aware of any policy that deals with employees leaving weapons inside vehicles. He says the department "recommends" they secure weapons in the trunk if they don't take them inside home.
If you have any information about this case, you are asked to call Crimestoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.

My middle child lost a tooth last week. Again. And I once again found myself rummaging through every drawer in the house at 2 o'clock in the morning, desperately in search of a dollar bill. I finally ended up digging a bill out of his sister's piggy bank and waking her in the process, wondering who on earth came up with this tradition of trading teeth for cash in the first place. I may be alone here, but I hate the tradition. Why?
1. It's expensive! Did you know that the average tooth fairy payout is $3 per tooth? That's 60 bucks when all is said and done with their baby teeth. For my three kids, that's 180 one-dollar bills I'll need to shell out for this silly rite of passage. And that's if I want to be the cheapest fairy on the block.
2. I never have cash in the house. I'm the one who charges a $2 cup of coffee. Ever since the invention of debit cards, I've just never found a need to carry cash. Until now.
3. It encourages sibling lying. It's never a good thing when the older child knows something the younger ones don't. The balance of power is off and it can only result in trouble.
4. I have to remember something else! As if we don't have enough on our evening plates with dinner and baths and assembling lunches for the next day and helping with homework and putting out school clothes and catching up on emails and a million other things, we're expected to stumble into our children's rooms and discreetly slip money under their pillows without being caught? On behalf of a mythical fairy? My sleep-deprived brain simply doesn't have the stamina to successfully carry through, I'm afraid.
5. I'll inevitably get caught. Come to think of it, that might be the only thing I like about the Tooth Fairy. Thank goodness she's fleeting.
The Tooth Fairy: Love her or hate her?
Image via Scary Mommy
The first tooth is worth $2 here. Every other tooth is a dollar in whatever change configuration we can scrape together, the tooth fairy likes them to learn to count money. You don't have to do average, you don't have to keep up with others. Do what works for you, and get over worrying about what everyone else is doing.
The Tooth Fairy at Nana's house gives twenty dollars per tooth. Yes my oldest is spoiled but saves and manages her money well...
My kids are ecstatic when the tooth fairy forgets because she is much more generous when the tooth spends an extra day under the pillow!!! Problem solved.
And let the comments about horrible, rotten, terrible parents "lying" to their kids begin! We dealt with the tooth fair -- remembering, sometimes forgetting, finding cash, all of the above. In the great scheme of parenting, easy-peasy. Easy answer -- if you don't "like" the tooth fairy, don't be the tooth fairy. If you want to go along, deal with it and quit complaining. If it is that big a deal, find a way around it, or simply tell your kids there is no tooth fairy.

Being in the app business, every person and their cousin likes to throw "Why isn't [INSERT APP] working?" at me on a daily basis. That's when they aren't pitching app ideas, which 9 times out of 10 results in me politely showing them how to search the app store.
Over the last year I've noticed that the vast majority of this app just doesn't work any more situations are all because of the same thing: privacy settings. Last year, Apple added granular privacy settings for allowing apps to access the address book, photos, calendars etc. This is obviously much better for customers and less responsibility for Apple when something goes awry (sorry Path). There is one major problem though, and that is the way these permissions are communicated to the customer. That aspect sucks.
As an example, here is what happens when you install Instagram for the first time:
Here is what people do when they see it:
- Shit! One of those blue things, Don't Allow! DON'T ALLOW!
- Um, fuck off Instagram, I'm keeping my own damn photos! And what happens next?
The app is "broken" and the customer has no idea why. If you're lucky (like with Instagram), you'll get a nice set of instructions explaining you'll have to go back into your device settings and alter the privacy controls, which is a costly user experience from hitting the wrong answer on the privacy dialog. Most of the time though, it'll just seem broken.
Privacy controls are a necessary evil but they suffer from their own existence. If a photo sharing app never asked for permission, most people would probably never even consider that it was accessing their photos and just go about their merry way. As soon as the question is asked, people assume there must be some inherent evil going on and are naturally biased towards the safe option - "Don't Allow".
There is no easy answer but the issue here is communication. What the customer seems to think is being asked is "Can Instagram take my photos and share them with everyone I've ever met, especially the filthy ones". It's framed in the context of the app company doing something with your photos. Really, it needs to be framed in the context of what you will be able to do via the app, if you provide permission.
Something more like:
Would you like to be able to use your photos in Instagram?
This will allow you to share photos you choose and save photos onto your iPhone. Nothing will be shared without your permission.
Oh, and don't even get me started on the wording in the iOS initial setup. The amount of people who say "my maps have just never worked" because they hit "No" to location services…that's for another time.

How to Trim a Palm Tree
The palm tree is a species of mostly tropical plants in the family Palmae. Palm trees are distinct for their branchless stems and fan-like arrangement of green compound leaves. There are more than 2000 species of palm, and they are a popular landscaping tree because they are low-maintenance and only require trimming under certain circumstances. Because palm trees are a symbol of beauty in many cultures, maintaining them is crucial to retain that beauty.
1Determine the health of the palm tree.
- Look for dead or dying fronds (leaves) on the tree. Dying fronds appear brownish in color. They might also appear white or yellow and be wilted. If there are no dead or dying fronds, the tree might not need trimming yet. If the tree appears nutrient deficient, do not prune fronds that are not dead.
2Set up a ladder or step stool against or near the tree.
- Make sure the ground is sturdy and the tree is not being damaged by the structure you are using.
3Remove dead or damaged leaves.
- Begin at the bottom of the foliage and look for brown, loose fronds.
- Use large clippers to cut the frond from the trunk. The fronds you cut should originate at an angle below the horizon. If the frond is pointing upward, do not cut it. Cut each frond at least 2 inches (5.08 cm) from the trunk. Cutting too close to the trunk can damage the tree.
4Pull off loose petioles (blades) from the fronds.
- Take 1 between your fingers and pull gently. If the petiole comes off easily, it is ready to be pruned. If you have to tug, leave it.
5Prune flowers or developing fruit from the palm if your particular species is the flowering type.
- Cut fruits from the fronds or trunk and remove flower growth by hand. Flowers and fruit prevent palms from growing to their potential because the development of anything other than fronds causes a loss in strength. Pests are attracted to dropped seeds or fruit; these pests can harm the tree. Fallen fruit can also stain the ground and produce an unpleasant odor.
6Discard of pruned fronds, petioles and fruit properly.
- Place fronds in trash bin made for organic waste. Palm tree fronds tend to have sharp needle-like protrusions that can prick you.
Are you an expert on accounting?
If so, share what you know about how to write an accounting ledger.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
We are a bit smarter today because of you.
- If the tree is brownish near the top, this is a good indication that the tree is dying or has a disease.
- Pruning should be performed no more than once a year, if that. Over-pruning weakens the tree.
- If your palm tree is more than 20 feet (6.1 m) tall, call an arborist for assistance.
- Do not pull loose fronds from the tree. Always trim them 2 inches (5.08 cm) from the trunk to prevent holes in the structure.
- Do not use climbing spikes to ascend palm trees. The spikes can leave holes in the trunk that leave the tree vulnerable to disease.
- Always wear gardening gloves when pruning a palm tree.
- Be careful when pruning more than one palm tree at a time. If the first palm tree has a disease, trimming the second tree with the same pruning shears can spread the disease.
Things You'll Need
- Ladder
- Waste can
- Gardening gloves
- Large pruning clippers

In my experience, the easiest way to beat the Monday lull it to simply act like it isn't happening! At Ramblin' Fan, we are trying to help you out with that cause by providing you with the best Rams' content from the weekend. So, lean back and get lost in a world of St. Louis Rams' news…
5 Benefits of Having Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey Together in St. Louis
As Coach Fisher answered "no," when asked about whether Stedman Bailey having played with Tavon Austin had anything to do with the 3rd Round selection, some might have rolled their eyes… myself included. Familiarity with teammates is an underrated asset in the NFL, not just between quarterback and receivers. Bleacher Report gives their top benefits of having the two WVU stars on the same roster.
Rams are in no hurry to sign draft choices
Jeff Fisher has never been one to shy away from doing things differently in the NFL. Case and point, signing rookies! Most teams want to get the paperwork out of the way immediately. Fisher likes to take a slightly "slower," more educationally-based approach…
Stacking up true NFC West heavyweights
"Heavyweight" is a fairly subjective term, having drastically different meaning depending on the sport that is it referencing. A heavyweight in the NBA might be the 6'9 tall, 289 lbs. Glen "Big Baby" Davis. In boxing, any fighter over 200 lbs. is considered the heaviest of the group. In football, you get the true heavyweights. Mike Sando lists the top dogs in the NFC West, headlined by none other than the Rams' Terrell Brown… who tipped the scale at just over 400 lbs.!
St. Louis Rams – Jared Cook Is In The Right Place, At The Right Time…
"Underrated" might understate the attention that the Jared Cook-signing got from the general NFL public. Most look at his career numbers and brush away Cook as a mediocre, off-line tight end that never amounted to much after dominating in college. However, we are getting more and more reports about Cook from camp; none of them negative…

Previewing The 2013 Houston Texans' Regular Season: Week 6 (Rams @ Texans)
When is it too early to preview games for the upcoming season? The answer: NEVER! The Texans look to repeat as one of the favorites in the AFC, with the Colts, Patriots, Bengals, and Broncos all potentially vying for the top spot in the conference. How do they predict the Week 6 matchup will end…?

America's best, affordable places to raise kids
Good schools, low crime rates and job opportunities make these towns stand out as the best places to raise a family.
Chicago resident Joe Walsh got married in 2001. Later that year, he and his wife packed their belongings and moved 15 miles to the suburb of Niles, Ill., to start a family. The village, noted for having an old water tower that now stands as a half-size replica of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, has nice parks. "But the biggest thing was that we could afford a house," says Walsh, now the father of children aged 6 and 2.
In the years since Walsh bought his Niles home, lifestyle expectations have changed in the U.S. Data from every state show that fewer young adults have married compared with a decade ago, according to the Population Reference Bureau. Fewer families are buying property. Despite these changes, which are driven partly by such problems as unemployment, the link between raising children and owning a home remains strong for most Americans. In a survey conducted by Fannie Mae in August and September, three-quarters of respondents cited children as a prime reason to buy a home. Owning, they said, provides lifestyle advantages.
Slide show: The 10 best places to raise a family
Even in such difficult times as these, owning a home remains a long-term aspiration for many families. The question has always been: Where?
Article continues below
In Businessweek.com's fifth-annual ranking of the best places in America to raise kids, such towns as Niles — with a low cost of living, good schools and a low crime rate — scored high. Unlike our previous reports, which included some large urban areas, the 2011 ranking focuses on small cities, towns and villages with populations larger than the median for the state but no greater than 50,000.
Target: Middle-income communities
In keeping with the survey's focus on middle-income communities, we've considered only places where the median family income was within 20% of the state median, culling affluent and low-income locales. In the U.S., median family income in 2009 was $61,082, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
- MSN Money: What's your credit-score range?
Using 2010 data from Onboard Informatics, a New York-based real-estate data company that specializes in residential demographic and lifestyle information, Bloomberg and Businessweek.com evaluated 5,418 places in the U.S. We emphasized a community's number of schools, school performance, cost of living and crime statistics. We also accounted for factors such as job growth, air quality, ethnic diversity and access to the surrounding county's parks, zoos, theaters and other recreational facilities.
In addition to Niles, other high scorers in our results include Rowland Heights, Calif., 25 miles from downtown Los Angeles, and North College Hill, Ohio, 10 miles from downtown Cincinnati. Both offer housing affordable to middle-income families, proximity to employment hubs, good public schools and low crime rates.
In addition to jobs in nearby cities, some of the communities selected also offer local employment opportunities. While many Niles residents commute to Chicago for work, the village of 29,207 has a strong commercial and industrial base, says Katie Schneider, executive director of the Niles Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Area industrial facilities include a Coca-Cola bottling plant. At 7.8%, the unemployment rate in Niles was down in October from 9.6% a year earlier, according to the Illinois Department of Employment Security.
Relatively low property taxes
Niles hosts several shopping centers, such as the Golf Mill Shopping Center, as well as a number of Korean food markets and stores that cater to the village's growing Korean population, says Walsh. Significant revenue from sales taxes helps keep property taxes in Niles low, says George R. Van Geem, village manager since 2005. In his district, the property-tax rate is $5.80 for every $100 of assessed value, he says. A district in nearby Mount Prospect carries a rate of $6.60, according to a release from the Cook County Clerk's office.
While low taxes are attractive, schools are the paramount concern for many young families. Rowland High School in California was ranked as one of the country's top high schools, according to the school district's website. Schools in Niles, which belong to several school districts, outperform the Illinois average; in 2007, the fine-arts program at Niles Township High School District 219 was recognized by the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C.

Quality-of-life issues also play a role in persuading families to make a move. Many communities in Businessweek.com's ranking offer services for families. Niles, for example, provides free local bus service from 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. and maintains a well-regarded teen center that provides homework assistance and organizes social activities.
An older neighborhood grows younger
Ohio's North College Hill, a city of 9,778, will open a community center in an old school building early this year for intergenerational and family activities, says Mayor Dan Brooks. "It's an older neighborhood that is getting younger" as more families have moved in the last four years, says Brooks, who is developing new city programs for the demographic.
- Bing: The best cities for jobs
As values evolve, will large numbers of families continue to settle in such places for homes, schools and public services? The Population Reference Bureau's study shows that from 2000 through 2009, the nation's share of married people ages 25 to 34 plunged to 45%, from 55%. And while Fannie Mae's survey found that having children has traditionally increased the likelihood that someone will buy a house, the proportion of households with children has been declining just as many families choose to rent because of financial constraints.
For those who still want to raise children in quiet communities, options abound around the country.

I'm not familiar with Illinois much less Chicago or any of it suburbs', but with all the negative stuff in the media about
Chicago politics, I can't imagine why anyone would want to live there except the very politicians the media talks about. I was raised in a very small town (Pop. 750) & and the county sheriff never made an arrest except for an illegal alien that shot & killed the wife of a local resident. Every family went to church on Sunday, kids helped out with the chores in the home, we had no school drop outs that I can recall, there were no drugs, gangs, domestic violence, vandalism, residential break-ins, robberies, car thefts,
or car jackings. Friday night football was a really big deal & most all city planned events were family oriented. Maybe that's why I can't remember one single marriage ending in divorce. Don't hear much about those kind of places anymore & that's sad, really sad. Oh yeah, one other fact-In our home & in the home of every friend I ever ate a meal in, the father ALWAYS gave thanks before we ate. But all this was in what we call "the good old days" when people, including young folks all had good morals, people were held responsible & accountable for their actions, and a person's integrity meant everything ! Christmas was the favorite time of year, stores were decorated with Christmas trees (they were not called holiday trees) & nativity scenes were common place in yards and retail stores & even at the county court house. We could still pray as a group in school & at public events. When & where & why did we go astray? The crazy world of political correctness has had a lot to do with it.
Also, there are so many errors in this article, as others pointed out - Kensington, CT is a 30 min. commute to Manhattan? C'mon - it's 110 miles away. I think they meant the shuttle from Kensington to New Haven takes 30 minutes, and then you have to take the Accela Express Amtrak train from New Haven to NYC, which takes another 1.5 hours to get to NYC. Two hour commute, one way. The author needs to do better research.

In the bustling French capital of Paris is the 19th district, within which is the Buttes-Chaumont area. A 19th Buttes-Chaumont holiday has a traveller situated in the heart of the city meaning that there is easy access to all of the sights and attractions that Paris has to offer. A 19th Buttes-Chaumont holiday rental apartment will give fantastic day and night views of the city as well as coming equipped with all the mod-cons you would expect to find in a five star Parisian hotel.
As a 19th Buttes-Chaumont holiday means that you are in the heart of the centre of Paris, there is a limitation to the activities that are available. Visitors will find the likes of swimming, walking, cycling, golf and tennis are available in the surrounding area. Of course, most visitors go to Paris to be able to see the main sights such as the Eiffel Tower, the Sacre Coeur and The Louvre, but there is also the wonderful Parc des Buttes-Chaumont in the district that is worth visiting too.
If you decide to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city for the afternoon then there are some excellent places to venture to during your 19th Buttes-Chaumont holiday. The town of Dreux is approximately an hour away from Paris and is a favourite of many a tourist as it is home to the Chapelle Royal de Dreux. The beautiful structure is a necropolis for the members of the Royal House of the Orleans family and around seventy-five members of this prominent family are buried there.
If a 19th Buttes-Chaumont holiday is looking to be a very exciting option for you and your travelling companions, then you will be eager to learn about the district's weather. The whole of Paris is subject to a continental climate, which means that there are warm to hot summers but cold winters. The majority of travellers tend to book a 19th Buttes- Chaumont holiday for the months of June, July and August as these months offer up pleasantly warm temperatures, some days as high as 25°C. If you decide to visit during the winter months you can expect a maximum daytime temperature of around 5°C. The average rainfall amount for Paris is approximately 22 inches.
Beginning a wonderful 19th Buttes-Chaumont holiday is simple as travellers can arrive at Charles De Gaulle Airport (CDG) which is approximately half an hour away from the district. Air operators that have regular, affordable flights to Paris include Air France, British Airways, easyJet, Thomas Cook Airlines and Flybe. Passengers can leave the UK from various local airports including Aberdeen (ABZ), Bristol (BRS), East Midlands (EMA), Cardiff (CWL) and Heathrow (LHR).

- Seafood at it's bestOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 9/27/2014Just like Bob Chinn's in Wheeling and the 34th Street Fishery in Lisle, Jimmy Chinns place does not disappoint. Maybe it doesn't have the cosiness for the highly romantic dinner but the seafood is outstanding. The garlic rolls to start with and of course the Chinn family Mai Tais never disappoint. Jimmy was an excellent host as he stops by every table to ensure all is well with your dinner. The waiter was a bit slow but not overbearingly slow. The bill came without the coupon discount taken off and had to be re-done. If you want fresh seafood and fish in the near western suburbs, Jimmy's Island Grill in Westmont is definitly the place to go.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Superb Birthbay CelebrationOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 9/26/2014My wife likes of Bob Chinn's Crab House and was happy to learn that Jimmy is Bob's brother. We shared a salad, which was very good and came in two small square bowls with separate dressings. Lobster is one of my wife's favorites and she was not disappointed. The filet was cooked as ordered, flavorful and was so tender that a knife really wasn't necessary. We both had the fried rice as the side dish, which was a nice change of pace and well worth ordering again. The key lime pie that we shared for dessert was excellent and easily one of the best available in this area. All in all, it was an excellent meal. Add in a server who was friendly and provided top notch service, and it was highly recommendable. We will definitely be back.Special Features:
- Great Food and ServicePaulfVIPDined on 9/21/2014My wife and I went into Jimmy's for lunch and everything was great. The "cup" of seafood gumbo is almost a meal in itself. If I had the bowl it would have been my lunch. The salt and pepper shrimp was delicious and my wife enjoyed her lobster mac and cheese. The drinks and beer were great too.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- feels like downtown...but close byOpenTable Diner Since 2004VIPDined on 9/5/2014Jimmy's keeps getting better. We've been 4-5 times now, both for Lunch and Dinner, and the service has gotten to the point that you feel you're at a downtown steakhouse. My kids were amazed how often someone came by to refill water, take away empty plates, bring more rolls, etc. Our server did an excellent job of taking care of us, making everything extremely easy. We used a LivingSocial deal and weren't made to feel like 2nd class citizens but in fact were surprised how flexible they were and what a great value it ended up being. My 15 year old said it was the best steak he'd ever had (and he's had a lot of steaks).Special Features:
- Good place for seafoodTarheelborn1VIPDined on 9/2/2014We had a group to dinner at Jimmy's and everyone was pleased with their food. I loved the Lobster special with sweet potato fries and green beans. Wine was good as well.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Jimmy chinnsOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/23/2014Food was good kind of pricey! Our table kept leaking water on us we pointed it out to server and owner they apologized put a towel over the rail that was it not offered anything even a dessert or a drink after getting dripped on all dinner!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful FindKD74Dined on 8/22/2014Decided to try a new seafood restaurant and lucked up onto this gem. The food was wonderful. Service was fast and friendly. I would recommend all seafood lovers give this place a try you will not be disappointed. I will certainly be returning soon.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/16/2014We enjoy sitting outside for dinner. However, there was a group of about 8 men sitting outside in the Tiki bar. They were very loud and obnoxious. We were able to move one table over which helped. The Mahi Mahi was very good, crab cakes were bland, green beans were delicious. Our waitress was very friendly. Food was a bit pricey but I would go again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great SeafoodMichaelDined on 8/8/2014Just having returned from a vacation in Bar Harbor Maine, I wasn't expecting fresh seafood as good and well prepared as Jimmy's. The owner visited our table and offered to make me Fried Clams something not on the menu, but told me if I let him know he would have the kitchen make them for me. Great place. Will certainly go back again!Special Features:
- Pleasantly surprised.60foodjunkieDined on 8/2/2014Went on Sat. night with friends. At outside, yes you overlook the parking lot but they have planted pretty flowers that block the view and the weather was perfect and we were happy to be outside.The service was fabulous, drinks, food, all came quickly. Many, including the mgmt. checked on us frequently to make sure all was well. I had the soft shell crabs, the men had the special fish of the day and my friend had the lobster tails. All we delicious and perfectly cooked. We also started the evening out with Mai Tais. Felt like I was back in Hawaii. We will definitely return. The fish is flown in fresh daily and you can tell.Special Features:
- Unexpected findSandyNDined on 8/2/2014We purchased a voucher from Living Social to try this restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised. Food was good as well as the service.Special Features:
- ChitownVIPDined on 7/27/2014Always love going here - consistently amazing food and the service and management are phenomenal!Special Features:
- Overpriced a bitMela526VIPDined on 7/26/2014Their prices are more a "fine dining" seafood place. They are not a fine dining restaurant at all. You could go to a place llike Catch 35 and spend the same amount of money and have food with a nice presentation and atmosphere.Special Features:
- New favoriteOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 7/26/2014Doesn't disappoint in any way. Lives up to a wonderful reputation as part of the Chinn family of restaurants. Garlic blue crab claws are the absolute best appetizer anywhere. Blackened ahi was cooked to perfection. Love the decor. Overall, a great place with something for every palate.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- good foodLuvfoodDined on 7/23/2014I have to say the food was really good. I was disappointed with the atmosphere. On line it looked to be this vibrant fun restaurant. We thought we'd be coming to this great outdoor "patio" with music playing. The outdoor seating was just along the sidewalk so disappointed with that. Felt like more of your average family greek restaurant. Loved the food but I'm about both - food & atmosphere. Probably wouldn't go back.Special Features:
- Enjoyable LunchDeejusDined on 7/23/2014Went with two friends and all three of us said we would come back. Loads of free parking, excellent service, easy to hear the conversation at the table. Each of us had something different and we were all pleased with our food. All of us would recommend Jimmy's to our friends and family. A suburban gem.Special Features:
- Good selection of seafoodseafoodeaterDined on 7/20/2014We had the nicest waitress. Got there before the rest of our group, and were seated and offered those yummy garlic rolls. Very good selection of seafood on the menu. We had the crab bite appetizers and shrimp egg rolls - both very good. I had the lobster mac and cheese - it had lots of lobster and the mac and cheese was nice and cheesy. I have enough left over for another 2 meals. Other people got the crab legs and various shrimp dishes. Everyone liked their food. Did not have room for dessert, but the waitress said the key lime pie is excellent, made from fresh squeezed limes, so would like to try that next time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Should have walked outeatoutalotDined on 7/12/2014The only reason we stayed was because we had a Groupon. The waiter was obviously new, undertrained and overwhelmed. Wrong appetizer brought to table, manager contacted, he deliver the correct one but oysters without crackers or lemon???? I order the canyon river salmon (pricey) grilled and my wife order sauteed scallops. The salmon was covered in some kind of oil and the scallops were breaded and deep fried. The waiter said that the kitchen makes the decision as to how the scallops are prepared. The food was extremely disappointing and there were no refills on drinks unless we asked for them. We won't go back and won't recommend to anyone. In fact, I doubt this place will be in business long with the lack of food quality and service.
- POM2VIPDined on 7/11/2014Copper River Salmon! It doesn't get any better! Hula Friday makes you think you are in the Islands. . .great music.
- Mrs. Jennifer DeBojennDined on 7/11/2014We, a party of 11 including children and adults, chose this restaurant because of their Aloha Friday- which included Hawaiian music from 7-9. With the excellent service, festive music and terrific food, we all enjoyed ourselves and will be back. The manager made sure we had another table when I asked if we could have another closer to hear the music. Friendly and courteous service. Great shrimp dishes too.Special Features:
- FitzOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 7/6/2014I found this thru a groupon deal, and I will be back. Food was very good. Service was above average.Special Features:
- Great SeafoodMichaelDined on 7/4/2014Excellent menu, with some unique dishes not typically seen in Chicago, The Crab Vermicelli was excellent as was the Seafood Gumbo, Blue Crab appetizer was very good. Service as excellent. I would definitely go back again.Special Features:
- Nice casual placescottpfeifferVIPDined on 7/3/2014We enjoyed a nice meal at Jimmy's. The menu was varied with less and more expensive options, and the fish tacos were pretty good, as was the shrimp fried rice.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good Food - Too PriceyBirthdayDined on 6/29/2014I thought the food was excellent, but 30.00 for a tuna steak on a pile of rice is a little much. The crab leg special was a little better, but was 1 crab leg for 20.00.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Disappointed and expensiveMerrick2VIPDined on 6/29/2014Very disappointed! There was so much garlic in the bread and the green beans, they were inedible. The seafood was good, but way too expensive. Our bill was $140.00 for 4 without drinks and one of us eating pasta. We will not return.
- Jimmys is the placeOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 6/28/2014My husband and I had dinner, he had halibut,and I had the New York steak, the fish was absolutely to die for and the steak was so tender and juicy and Im a big critic on steaks and this was yet the best by far, the service was outstanding, this is a must go to restaurant we had a hard decision on what to order everything just sounded so divine.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Nice Seafood SelectionOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 6/15/2014Went to Jimmy's for Father's Day dinner. Two of our guests love seafood, so we chose Jimmy's based on their menu selection. Good options to order either a full dinner or sandwich with sides. Salad/soup quality was excellent. Seafood that was ordered (blackened halibut, coconut shrimp) was very good. Service was excellent...we had a last minute change in our guest numbers, and they handled it without any issues. Our waitress gladly found out answers to questions that we had about menu items. Would not hesitate to go back.Special Features:
- Father's Day dinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/15/2014Everything was excellent right down to the immaculately clean restrooms. Was visited or greeted by both manager and owner to make sure we were satisfied. Best and most tender steak and lobster I've had in a very long time. Saving up since we spent a good amout so we can go back again Anxious to bring friends and additional family membersSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- happy1Dined on 6/14/2014Great Fresh fish. Our server Cindy was outstanding. She was very helpful in suggesting dinner options and different Mai Tai's. 2 of us had the Copper River Salmon Asian style. It melted in your mouth. Another had the Hawaian Ahi Tuna with onions on a sizzling platter. He enjoyed it, as he ate the whole piece. And then the last meal was blackened Grouper which was light flaky and delicious. You will also enjoy the fresh warm Garlic Rolls. Had a great time with friends and outstanding food. Definitely will be returning for another delicious dinner.Special Features:
- Jimmy's Island Grillfoodsnobsx5Dined on 6/8/2014This was the second time we ate here. The food is outstanding - we were a table of 8 and everyone had a variety of food and loved it all. Service was very good too and assisted us for a member's gluten free dietSpecial Features:
- Nice spot for SeafoodTommyBVIPDined on 6/7/2014We went at 5:30 and the place was dead but picked up as time went on. Service (Cindy) was great and the food was good. Atmosphere is a little bland but nice overall.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- luv2dineVIPDined on 6/7/2014I had the Copper River Salmon and it was excellent. My girlfriend had fish tacos. My only complaint was they charged me a $2 upcharge for asparagus. Will return with no problem.Special Features:
- SEAFOODJKdinerDined on 6/6/2014The menu reminded us of Chinn's on Odgen a little, but the interior is much nicer. Garlic rolls brought to your table to enjoy right away. Fresh fish flown-in, shrimp 7-ways, mai-tais, paper menu ... The entrees are expensive. We ordered the salt n pepper calamari - very good. I ordered a specialty of the house, crab vermicelli, and although it was delicious, there wasn't that much crab meat and it was $25. Next time I'd stick to the fish. My husband ordered Mahi Mahi (6-8 oz) and he said it was delicious. Entrees come with 1-side. Everything else is ala carte. Skip the coconut cake, it looks better than it tastes. $100 for 2 with one glass of wine.Special Features:
- The following 123 reviews are from the Jimmy's Island Grille & Crab House reviews archive.
- Not consistantfoodieDined on 6/1/2014We went to Jimmys for the first time a few months ago and was very happy with our meal. We decided to go again and take some people with us. It was a difference experience than our first visit. The first time we ordered clam chowder, it was very good, the second time it was like getting a different soup, it was pink in color, lacked flavor and clams. We had the lobster special it was okay but it took forever to get our food and the restaurant was not crowded at all. The waiter never inquired how our food was. One thing that you want in a restaurant is consistency. We did not get that from our 2 times at Jimmys. Even though the restaurant was pretty much empty the noise level was high, hard to hold a conversation. Try 1 more time? Maybe.

Compton's got a bad reputation. Not saying some of it isn't deserved, but let's be honest, it's not like they're killing cripples outside of churches or anything.
Yeah. It's come down to that. Two men, one in a wheelchair, the other pushing him along, were gunned down yesterday outside of a church on Alameda.
According to the locals the two men weren't members of a gang. But considering how gang violence has a tendency to spill over to innocent bystanders, this could still very well be gang related. No suspects, yet.

Truth for Life - February 20, 2012
February 20
Guard Against Temptation
A holy character does not prevent temptation--Jesus was tempted. When Satan tempts us, his sparks fall upon tinder; but in Christ's case, it was like striking sparks on water; yet the enemy continued his evil work. Now, if the devil goes on striking when there is no result, how much more will he do it when he knows what inflammable stuff our hearts are made of. Though you become greatly sanctified by the Holy Spirit, expect that the great dog of hell will bark at you still. In the haunts of men we expect to be tempted, but even seclusion will not guard us from the same trial.
Jesus Christ was led away from human society into the wilderness and was tempted by the devil. Solitude has its charms and its benefits and may be useful in checking the lust of the eye and the pride of life; but the devil will follow us into the most lovely retreats. Do not suppose that it is only the worldly-minded who have dreadful thoughts and blasphemous temptations, for even spiritually minded persons endure the same; and in the holiest position we may suffer the darkest temptation.
The utmost consecration of spirit will not insure you against satanic temptation. Christ was consecrated through and through. It was His meat and drink to do the will of Him that sent Him--and yet He was tempted! Your hearts may glow with an angelic flame of love for Jesus, and yet the devil will try to bring you down to lukewarm uselessness. If you will tell me when God permits a Christian to lay aside his armor, I will tell you when Satan has left off temptation.
Like the old knights in wartime, we must sleep with helmet and breastplate buckled on, for the arch-deceiver will seize our first unguarded moment to make us his prey. May the Lord keep us watchful in all seasons and grant us a final escape from the jaw of the lion and the paw of the bear.

Lisa Lee is a mother, a dancer, and a graduate of a child psychology master's program, a trio of credentials that serve her well in leading dance classes for children. At Lisa's Dance and Exercise, toddlers learn the basics of creative movement though exercises, obstacle courses, and freeze dances that once helped kids stay amused during the ice age. Kids then advance into classes that cover the basics of tap dance and ballet, helping form the foundations of a lifelong love of dance and fitness.
The emerald alleyways of Forest Oaks Golf Club's 18-hole course tumble through towering trees and scenic streams for a round of lengthy, challenging play. Tight fairways supply the bulk of the difficulty throughout the round, which tests golfers' accuracy off the tee and golf carts' stamina with six par 5s. The club hosts frequent scrambles, beat-the-pro competitions, and other friendly competitions to unite linkspeople under the common cause of hunting pins and fending off mulligans. To prepare duffers for rounds on their scenic course, Forest Oaks' staff of resident aces offers onsite golf instruction, and the golf club fuels herculean drives and underfed 9-irons with refreshments and homemade snack-bar
The one-hour golf lesson, which includes all course or practice-facility fees, requires golfers to bring their own clubs to have their golf needs assessed and addressed by a PGA-certified instructor. The private schooling may include tips on proper alignment, grip, posture, ball position, swing mechanics, and more. Cloud 9 has partnered with golfing professionals and tee-off locales all over the country, including six participating teachers and courses in the Miami area: Daniel Larkin at the Atlantis Country Club in Atlantis; Doug Feldman at The Club at Pelican Bay in Daytona Beach; Marty Maisa at Inverrary Country Club in Lauderhill; Lucas Cohen at Grand Palms Resort & Country Club in Pembroke Pines, multiple instructors at Palm-Aire Golf Academy in Pompano Beach, and Mark Arnold at Longboat Key Club & Resort in Longboat Key.
Defensive Shooting Instructors' training staff includes Special Forces members, SWAT officials, and intelligence specialists. Drawing from these backgrounds, the highly trained team teaches dozens of public courses that cover everything from pistols to shotguns to hand-to-hand combat. Rather than guiding their students through simple lessons, the instructors run drills that simulate real-world conditions and aim to create safe-yet-intense environments. For firearms training, they travel to local ranges and put shooters through repetitive drills focused on speed, accuracy, and consistency. In addition to civilian instruction, Defensive Shooting Instructors designs courses for law enforcement officers, military members, and deploying journalists. Its staff mans a gun shop.
Florida Firearms Training teams up with four gun ranges spread across the Tampa, Palm Beach, and Fort Lauderdale areas.
Depending on the course taken, the staff can rent handguns, shotguns, or rifles.
Florida Firearms Training's state-, NRA-, and military-certified instructors abide by the philosophy that with ownership of firearms comes great responsibility. With this in mind, they cover safe gun handling and loading in tactical and defensive courses for pistols, shotguns, rifles, and specialty weapons.
In 1989, many golfers found that their drives got straighter, their swings became smoother, and their overall scores dropped significantly. The reason? Jamie Hanson had become a PGA Golf Professional and started teaching golf students. The expert is still at it today, currently working at West Palm Beach Municipal Golf Course?an 18-hole course where the water hazards never contain any sea monsters.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
this school is an excellent school the teachers and the princpal are very loving people i hatethat i had to move and that my children cant go there anymore because i dont know if i can find a school like them anywhere else.
Genesis is a school I would whole-heartedly recommend. Teaching here has been a wonderful experience and if I had children they would attend here. Genesis' looping system fosters a strong bond between the staff, students and parents that you often lose in other public schools. Having the same teacher for four years ensure that your child receives a tailored education and ample one-on-one time with the educators. Overall, I continue to be impressed with the environment at Genesis.
Mrs Henry was my daughter's teacher for four years and we loved. She went out of her way to get a degree to teach a gifted child. I will always always love Mrs. Henry
My son has attended Genesis Prep from K - 2nd grade. I have been very happy with the school, the administration and the staff. The teachers care, the principal cares and is on a first name basis with all of the children and the parents. My only negative comment about Genesis is the lack of extracurricular activities (sports) for the kids. We've had to move to Texas for a new job so I will be missing Mrs. Henry the rest of the crew. But the school is an excellent choice for any child.

When Intel's CEO since 2005 retires next year, the company will still face a problem it's barely begun to solve: finding a foothold in the mobile market.
Speaking yesterday at the Sanford C. Bernstein Conference, CEO Paul Otellini said looking outside the company for his successor would be a bad idea.
After an almost 40-year career with the chip giant, Otellini will step down as president and CEO in the second quarter of next year.
Paul Otellini, who retired as the chip giant's CEO on Thursday, tells The Atlantic that he didn't do what it takes for Intel to be in Apple's initial smartphone.
At the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco, CEO Paul Otellini tells how the company's pending acquisitions will help it address the next wave of computing.
