Garrett Franklin moved to Austin a few months ago. From what he's seen so far, he agrees. "Alcohol is destructive! I mean you have somebody angry and mad down here without a ride home, they don't have money to even get a taxi home and then it's over man," he said.

Recently the issues plaguing downtown have been garnering a lot of attention.
As a former downtown bartender I've had many conversations about Austin's poor choices for getting home safely, and I've witnessed first hand all of the forthcoming complaints more times than I can count.
Tightening down on DWI's, adding police presence and checkpoints are all reactive responses, not pro-active. Let's face it- the decision starts when someone chooses to drive instead of using alternative means to get to and from their destination(s).
So why do people make that choice?
For many people I've spoken with it boils down to three issues:
- A poor public transportation infrastructure.
- A distinct shortage of cabs who often provide terrible customer service.
- A fear that if they leave their car behind it will be ticketed (sometimes repeatedly), vandalized or towed.
Cap Metro: They end too early and many run too infrequently later on to be helpful to the average rider who has other means of transportation. Austin is incredibly active late into the night and it would be nice to see changes brought to public transportation that reflect that. Increased reliability, heavily expanded late night and/ or 24 hour bus service to more parts of town including outer Austin would help people view the bus as a viable alternative to driving. Areas dense in student residents would benefit tremendously from affordable, legal and safe ways home. A massive expansion of the rail system would help remove cars from the road and offer speedy and well lit rides to outlying areas.
Taxi/ ride share: If you were to ask any group of people their impressions of Austin taxis it would be largely negative. Even on a non- festival weekend night it is nearly impossible to hail a cab. Complaints include fares being refused due to distance/ location/ lack of cash/ size of party, ordered cabs taking hours or just not showing up, complaints of inappropriate sexual behavior, drug use and unnecessarily long routes. Students seem to be the most frequent victims of all of these practices.
Why are "gypsy cabs" and ride-share programs are so popular? Because everyone I've spoken to have had better experiences with them in terms of reliability, price, cleanliness and ease of use. The city would do well to listen to the complaints of the people and not the companies when it comes to making changes to city code regarding ride share programs. The people are voting with their dollars and it's for a new system.
Leaving their car behind: Austinites live in fear of their car being towed or ticketed. Everytime someone is ticketed, towed or their car is broken into it reduces their comfort level in leaving their vehicle behind. You've effectively all but guaranteed they are going to be leery of choosing public transportation the next time around. Would perhaps a warning ticket for the first offence on that license plate be equally effective at educating them without costing them a lot of money and stranding them?
The city and the police need to be discussing how their regulations and often overzealous enforcement have negatively impacted people's perception of how safe their car is being left behind. For someone living paycheck to paycheck a tow fee or a pile of tickets from one night can often be out of financial reach.
And that goes for all the above points. Austin needs more public options for affordable, safe and reliable means of transportation during peak hours day AND night.
The discussion needs to be changed from how to stop drunk people driving home to how to help sober people feel safe and comfortable leaving their car in their driveway.

1.) More buses, running later, to more parts of the city.
2.) Changes to Cap Metro that will allow the trains to run later on weekends.
3.) More taxis, especially on late nights, weekends and special events.
4.) Legalization of peer to peer driver programs such as Uber and Lyft as competition for the taxi companies.
5.) Reduction or elimination of penalties for people who choose to leave their car downtown overnight to get a sober ride home.
We do not condone drunk driving; we advocate more choices for people who have been drinking so that they can make responsible decisions.
We believe that people are personally responsible for their actions and should be held accountable for those actions; we also believe that most people will make the right decision when given options. We are advocating more options; we are not advocating abandonment of personal responsibility.
We do not believe our proposal will eliminate the drunk driving problem; we do believe that a better transit system will save lives and improve quality of life for all of Austin.
We believe that improvements to the city's public transit infrastructure are desperately needed in order to maintain Austin's continued growth. We believe that public transit improvements will help to reduce the workload of APD and EMS and will create a safer city overall. We also believe that allowing more competition into the transit marketplace is good for the consumer, the city, and private businesses and all will ultimately profit from the changes we're proposing.
We feel that a few simple changes to City codes could spark innovation and competition in Austin; but most importantly it would alleviate the woes of citizens and tourists alike trying to find their way home.
We propose changes to codes that would allow the issuance of temporary permits for licensed taxi cab drivers from other cities to operate in Austin during festivals and events deemed large scale by the City.
We propose Peak Demand permits be issued during the hours of 6pm-3am Thursday through Monday and during previously mentioned festivals and events, with a set percentage of cabs in each company required to provide service to Peak Demand areas.
We ask the City to clarify their "Response to dispatched service requests" code to a set distance instead of the vague lettering of "within a reasonable distance".
We would greatly encourage the issuance of more permits for all hours and days. With a permit to citizen ratio of approximately 1:2528 we are in desperate need of additional cabs.
We are in favor of better utilization of existing downtown taxi zones as cab stands/staging areas where people know they can find a vacant taxi.
We propose changes to codes that would allow Peer to Peer transportation companies such as Uber, Lyft, SideCar and others to operate legally in the city as long as they carry corporate insurance comparable to what taxi franchises carry, do complete background and driving checks on each driver and purchase permits from the City. With each permit costing the same as taxi permits, this could generate considerable income for the City. We also suggest they also abide by rate caps with surge pricing made illegal. The state of California recently legalized P2P companies with these regulations[1]:
The CPUC established 28 rules and regulations for TNCs. The rules include the requirements that TNCs must: Obtain a license from the CPUC to operate in California; Require each driver to undergo a criminal background check; Establish a driver training program; Implement a zero-tolerance policy on drugs and alcohol; Hold a commercial liability insurance policy that is more stringent than the CPUC's current requirement for limousines, requiring a minimum of $1 million per-incident coverage for incidents involving TNC vehicles and drivers in transit to or during a TNC trip, regardless of whether personal insurance allows for coverage; and, Conduct a 19-point car inspection.
We propose expanded late night and 24 hour bus routes throughout all of Austin based from the downtown entertainment district. This would alleviate the overcrowding on the last Night Owl busses that frequently happens under the current system. 24 hour schedules would allow bar staff and workers with unusual schedules the option of taking public transportation to and from work; reducing traffic and parking issues. Please see our attached proposal map, put together expertly by Lisa Roebuck.
We propose a greater emphasis be placed on ensuring the busses stay on schedule.
We would like to see Metro Rail greatly expanded, although we do recognize that is a long term goal. For an example of a city with great success at implementing light rail: Portland, Oregon's Tri-Met stands out.
We would also like to see the city work to improve awareness of where the late night bus stops are and where the bus routes go, through prominent signage throughout the downtown core.
We feel there is a need for better explanation of overnight parking laws on the City's website. Further clarification of when cars need to be retrieved by the following morning would be tremendous.
Allow overnight parking on Friday and Saturday nights in the lots under i-35.
A public campaign to improve the public's knowledge of overnight parking places and regulations is sorely needed. Many people do not know that they can leave their cars or are confused on what the regulations pertaining to pickup are.
Require more parking garages/ lots to offer weekend overnight parking with fee caps. Many require vehicles to be gone by 3am and many do not state what their policies are clearly to a passing vehicle looking for a place to park. We'd like to see codes requiring clear signage be posted at all garages and lots.

We've been super successful thanks to your support!
Consider these statistics: Austin, Texas has close to 800 establishments that serve alcohol. However we currently only have 1 taxi cab for every 1,146 people. Our public transit system shuts down all but eight routes by 11pm on weekdays and all but twelve by midnight on Saturdays. The majority of parking lots in downtown Austin will tow your car at 3AM if you choose to leave your car to get a sober ride home.
ATX Safer Streets wants to change this. We believe in taking a more proactive approach to this problem and promoting DWI prevention, rather than relying solely on DWI enforcement. We advocate smarter use of Austin's transit and parking systems as a way to stop people from drinking and driving before they get behind the wheel, by providing more options - bus, taxi, train, rideshare programs, and overnight parking that encourage people to leave their vehicles at home when they head out for the evening.
With 100-150 new residents moving to Austin per day, adding hundreds of cars to the roads, there has never been a more critical time to address this issue. This is a problem that affects all Austin residents, as well as Austin's booming tourism industry. University of Texas estimates there are 70,000 students a day on campus as well.
Since we began in late March, ATX Safer Streets has made a definite impact. In the time from our inception we ended towing under the I-35 bridge on weekends, the city has instituted a "Know Before You Go" program through its website that lists ways to get sober rides home and overnight parking options. The City Council unanimously approved a rideshare pilot program that will introduce companies such as Uber and Lyft as an alternative to taxis. The Council also plans to meet with taxi industry leaders to address our city's critical shortage of cabs downtown. Cap Metro has similarly created a late night website, and their proposed Urban Rail line will go until 2am on weekends. We've presented to various leaders, organizers and we continue to stay involved and very vocal in the fight for our city.
ATX Safer Streets needs your help to continue this fight. Our group started as three volunteers working in our spare time to create a grassroots movement. Now we have become a force to be reckoned with in Austin politics, and have begun the process of becoming a 501c3. We cannot do this alone.

Additionally, this city can't grow properly without better public transportation and we need to aid people, both sober and drunk, with reliable public transportation options. For example, if I had a quick and easy way to travel north or south for work (I live downtown) I would consider working outside of downtown. Instead we limit ourselves to only a few career opportunities because it's too much of a hassle to travel from point A to point B with the roads as jammed as they are. And for those who do have to drive such a long way to work, what a headache! I used to have to drive to and from Round Rock for work and the traffic put me in a crappy mood. Don't we want happy citizens Austin?!REPORT THIS COMMENT:

As a central downtown resident with full access to a cab ride, metro, and rail transit...it makes it possible to get downtown at a decent hour but IMPOSSIBLE to get back home between the hours of 12-2am. Yellow cab is just slow, rude, and at times wont even bother driving to the east side, or wont bother if you just have a CC and no cash. Its annoying and infuriating to know we have a perfectly working Rail System but can't utilize it after the early evening hours throughout the week and weekends. It just doesn't make sense to me. feels as though Austin capitalizes on DWI arrests by encourage people to drive home after a night out with no real pro-active attempt to stop it.REPORT THIS COMMENT:

Austin has been rapidly growing for some time now. It hasn't been the "small" town I grew up in for years. And we are home to so many festivals & events that draw in crowds from all over the world. For such a city to have the miserable transportation system that we do is just a sad joke. I ride buses quite regularly, all over town, but they are far too infrequent, unreliable, & most of the routes are completely illogical. Because of that, I almost never ride the bus when I am going downtown at night. Austin needs to take a look at Portland & similar cities & figure it out.REPORT THIS COMMENT:

EAST HARLEM, N.Y. (WPIX)—After beating and strangling a 73-year-old woman to death in a Wagner Houses apartment three weeks ago, Gregory Velez was videotaped lugging a flat screen television out of the victim's East Harlem building. This image, captured by security cameras, helped police arrest Velez and appease a community shaken by yet another public housing crime.
Around the clock, surveillance cameras monitor the entrances, elevators and fluorescent-lit hallways of East Harlem's two largest public housing developments, an extra set of eyes in the NYPD and New York City Public Housing Authority's joint effort to curb crime. But the cameras haven't deterred criminals, as ongoing illegal activity in the Robert F. Wagner and Thomas Jefferson houses have made them recurring crime scenes.
"At 3 o'clock you hear gunshots, it's kind of scary," said Yvonne Esquilin, parent coordinator at P.S. 102, located directly across the street from a Jefferson Houses building on 113th Street. "The kids get out at 3 o'clock and they have to run home, all the parents are worried," she said, adding that increased safety patrols could help calm fears.
Shootings remain atop East Harlem's public housing crime list, according to Captain Chris Morello of the NYPD's Police Service Area 5, responsible for overseeing all public housing in the neighborhood. There are 23,028 public housing apartments in East Harlem's Community District 11, the most in any of the city's districts.
There have been 24 shootings in PSA5 this year, three less than this time last year. Major felonies are also down 7 percent, from 406 to 378. The drop can be attributed to security cameras, high-tech building locks and the Trespass Affidavit Program, which allows NYPD officers to patrol projects daily in search of trespassers or criminal activity.
But the measures have faced various hurdles. Nearly 48 percent of NYCHA residents reported broken building locks and 78 percent said they were still afraid of crime in their buildings, according to NYCHA's Resident Safety and Security Survey. Also, some residents have resented the TAP initiative, saying it promotes racial profiling. Often, in buildings were the locks function properly, lobby doors are deliberately left open.
"There's people that walk in the building that are just crazy," said Tre Special, who has lived at the Wagner Houses, stretching from 120th to 124th streets, for over 25 years. "The exit is left open and that gives the opportunity for anybody to walk in there," he said.
Several local shops say the criminal activity within the developments has had no affect on business. Jesus Martinez has owned a grocery store on the same block as some Wagner buildings for seven years and says he's never had a problem with crime stemming from the development. However, some local realtors of luxury condominiums are suffering due to their proximity to the projects.
"It's turning people off," said Simon Simantov, a real-estate specialist whose condo on East 112th Street near the Jefferson Houses has been on the market for six months. He adds that when potential buyers see the towering project buildings and adjacent Thomas Jefferson Park, they lose their interest. "It definitely affects the sales," he said.
Even with increased measures meant to deter crime, locals say the plight of many low-income residents in the housing projects steers them towards illegal activity.
A Pratt Center for Community Development report says about half of NYCHA's residents live below the poverty line, marked at $22,000 for a family of four. NYCHA's stats show the average income for its families is just over $23,000, and 11 percent of them receive public assistance.
Financial struggles are directly linked to higher crime rates in public housing, according to Dr. Walter DeKeseredy, a sociology professor at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology who penned a book addressing the link.
"They're told to pursue the American dream, but not everyone can get it through legitimate means," he said, "So crime is a means of dealing with these contradictions."
DeKeseredy adds that young people living in these conditions are often lured into drug activity or gang violence. PSA5 officials say youth gang crews from different developments, like the Wagner and Jefferson houses, are constantly battling.
"We've had an increase in requests for safety transfers from kids saying 'I've got problems with kids at the Wagner projects,'" said Assistant Principal Bill Costello of the Coalition School for Social Change, adjacent to Wagner. In February, the school building, home to two other schools, had to be locked down when two suspects ran inside after shooting a 14-year-old boy outside of the projects. The school has promoted after-school and youth employment programs to give students an alternative to the streets.
At the Jefferson Houses, visible gang activity in hallways and lobbies sometimes makes walking out of the building difficult, said Armando Reyes, who has lived in the projects for over 30 years.
"It's scary because you go out and you don't know if they're going to start a fight with another gang member, and then you're in the middle," he said, adding that crime in the development is a reflection of poor parental supervision.
The NYPD says there are 13 open cases at the Jefferson Houses and five at Wagner. Crime prevention efforts are mainstays on NYCHA's agenda, even as it deals with budget cuts. Elected officials have dedicated about $41 million to installing more security cameras and revamping building entrances with new technology. Installation in selected developments will begin in 2012.

Voters to Decide on Requiring Condoms in Adult Films
LOS ANGELES (KTLA) -- Voters in Los Angeles County will get to decide on whether porn actors should be required to wear condoms during filming.
AIDS Healthcare Foundation says they collected 371,000 signatures in five months, far exceeding the 232,000 signatures needed -- enough to qualify for the November ballot.
The ordinance would apply to commercial filming of adult films and would require production companies to submit to periodic inspections, as well as nominal fees for the city to operate the program.
The measure is backed by AIDS activists who say porn performers are at constant threat of being infected with HIV and sexually transmitted diseases.
DOCUMENT:Read the Petition
But many porn producers are against the initiative, saying actors should be able to decide for themselves whether to use condoms.
"The industry has done an admirable job of policing itself," founder of Vivid Entertainment Steve Hirsch said. "If Los Angeles County chooses to enforce mandatory condoms, what you'll see is all adult production leave California. It will move to other places."
But former adult film performer Shelly Lubben, who founded the Pink Cross Foundation, said she got herpes and became infected with the human papillomavirus, or HPV, while working in the industry, and had to have half of her cervix removed.
"We want the fans to know what they're contributing to," she told The Times. "They're demanding harder and grosser porn. We want to educate them to exactly what they're watching -- diseased people ... It's illegal for bodily fluids to touch skin, and yet it happens every single day in the porn industry."
The measure is modeled on similar health permits for tattoo shops, massage parlors, barbershops and nail salons, the AIDS group said.
It would apply to the unincorporated area and 85 of the 88 cities in Los Angeles County, including Los Angeles. Cities with their own public health departments -- Pasadena, Long Beach and Vernon -- would be exempt.
The county Board of Supervisors must take the final step of voting to approve the measure for the ballot.
The initiative is the latest effort by advocates to force the porn industry and government agencies to do more to safeguard the health of adult film performers.Copyright © 2014, The Baltimore Sun

We had breakfast every morning the waitress were very professional and friendly. We used the vallet parking,bo trouble at all,exelent service. We would go back again that is not a question!!! Thanks Mr C :)
The showe is something that they should fix it!!!!-please
My boyfriend and I decided to celebrate our one year anniversary with a little staycation one Saturday night in August. After much deliberation, we decided on Mr. C and did not regret our decision one bit. The staff was friendly from the second I walked in the door. Check in was quick (and fun, thanks to the delicious Bellini from the talented bartender) and our bags were brought up to our room quickly. Because it was our anniversary, Mr. C upgraded our room to a higher floor and gave us a bottle of prosecco and chocolate covered strawberries free of charge. The beds were comfortable, the balcony overlooking the city was magical, and overall experience was perfect. We will definitely be returning.
Great hotel, great rooms.
We have european plugs and when we asked the reception about a US converter they said they will send it right away. They did but the converter was not working but we didn't concern about it because we had a spare one. When we check out, we saw on the bill that they charged us 50$ for the converter. We didnt pay because it was not working but come on, for a hotel like this luxury, you do not have to take more money from people. It's a 5$ converter and if you do charge, just say so when we have called.
Very clean, friendly staff, location, swimming pool, and very nice & fresh smell everywhere in the hotel.
The service
The pillow, and the gym
Loved the hotel, location , staff and all
No coffee machine , coffee is 13 dollars room service , takes 30 min. had to buy a kettle and coffee. No laundry Service , and the walls r soo thin i could hear my neighbors getting it on all night for 3 nights.
Staff was friendly
Price is very high
Good location. Friendly stuff. Very Good service. Clean Hotel. Very near to super market.
Room needs maintenance. No self parking. Expensive valet parking.
location and staff
The staff went out of their way to honor every request, and knew our names right away. The room was beautiful, good size, light and cheerful with a grand view. Bathrooms are small, but well-appointed. Easy to drive everywhere, but a very long walk to downtown Beverly Hills. Good restaurant.
Nothing at all
The smell of the hotel and rooms, noisy we can hear every things around the rooms and the sound from the upper room :( And i forget my iPad there but they didn't give it to me back. It's 3 stars hotel not 5 stars Far away from every thing. This the first time i got disappointed from booking website.
Staff were incredibly friendly, hotel is in good location and facilities were perfect.
Quality and style of fittings
Desk more interested in servicing trendy locals. Pool very plain. Pool party specials rough. Double beds rather than queen size. No real facilities
Room designs Friendly staff Luxury Small & cozy Clean
Nothing on walking distance
the housekeeping + the water temperature in the bathroom
Size of queen size bed
Location Bell service very good and friendly
Building site just opposite the hotel - noisy all day At check in no rooming was done Housekeeping poor. No fresh towels one day (had to use those left in bathroom) No complimentary water in room (in a 5 star hotel!) Clear difference between guests that booked via booking and direkt
We ordered a breakfast to the room and when we got it, it was cold!! Everything in the hotel is incredibly expensive. $6 for a glass of coke! And a breakfast for two cost $50. It's insane.
everything is ok

Aerospace deals return as financial freeze thaws
The big financial freeze that has gripped much of the aerospace industry since around the time of the last Farnborough airshow in 2008 is starting to thaw. And, as a consequence, deal making is back in fashion.
This was the headline assessment of the state of the sector from Michael Richter, managing director of the aerospace and defense group of financial advisor and asset manager Lazard on the eve of this week's show.
What has changed lately, Richter told AIN, is that visibility and certainty have started to re-emerge as factors giving companies and investors the confidence to start making longer term moves. "In the past six to eight weeks, there have been several billion-dollar transactions in the market or coming to the market," he said, predicting that as many as 15 to 20 of such deals could come to fruition in the coming weeks. Private equity interests are once again active in the market, he explained, and, in some cases, investors who want to avoid liability to new U.S. capital gains tax rates are driving asset sales.
"The market has transitioned from an uncertain outlook to one where there is greater visibility," he said, pointing out that net airliner orders have been positive since the last Paris Air Show in June 2009, with a slower than anticipated rate of cancellations. More recently, airlines have started to show improved profitability.
Richter said that, along with many in the industry, he has been pleasantly surprised by the pace and scale of the recovery. "But the problem was real and serious and we are still not out of the woods," he warned, noting that while the significant layoffs made by companies have now stalled, the rate of rehiring has been slow.
"This time last year, most analysts on Wall Street were predicting that it was impossible for Boeing and Airbus to maintain their production rates owing to the alarming cancellation and deferral rates," Lazard explained. "Most suppliers were adjusting business models to accommodate the possibility of a production slow down. However, the unprecedented order backlogs, increased orders from international customers and conservative operating stance adopted by the airlines in recent years, which includes cash reserve build-ups and reduced costs, continues to preserve this backlog."
Lazard's aerospace and defense group consists of 20 bankers around the world. It continues to be very active, having advised on more than 10 transactions during the past 12 months, including several strategically significant deals.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- Homicide detectives have yet to name a suspect in a deadly shooting at Dosker Manor, in Louisville, Tuesday evening.
The shooting happened around 5:50 p.m. in an elevator on the 12th floor of building 8. That's where police found 29-year-old Richard Spencer, confined to his wheelchair, shot multiple times in his torso.
"We believe he was the intended target," Lt. Todd Kessinger, with Metro Police, said.
Police said Spencer and the suspect were acquaintances, and were in a dispute when the shooting happened. A woman, 40 weeks pregnant, and in her twenties, was shot twice in the abdomen. Police said the female had no relation to the other two involved.
"We think she was just in the wrong spot at the wrong time," Kessinger said.
EMS transported the female to University Hospital. Her baby was born a short time later.
"She was taken into emergency c-section surgery. They're both doing well," Kessinger said.
Police credit doctors at the University of Louisville Hospital for the life-saving measures taken on both the mother and her baby.
"A woman who's 40 weeks pregnant, shot twice…the university deserves credit on that," Kessinger said.
Police are looking over surveillance video from the complex. They're also talking to a number of witnesses from the scene. If you have any information that can help police, you're asked to call 574-LMPD.

As soon as Nigel Godrich jumped from behind his boards and spaz-danced with Thom Yorke in Atoms for Peace, we knew we were in a brave new world of producers crossing into performers—and it seems that Daniel Lanois has the chops to deliver on both fronts. U2's longtime collaborator (for The Unforgettable Fire, The Joshua Tree, and more) and Dylan's Time Out of Mind mastermind (Bob snarked him out in Chronicles Vol. 1, but little matter) recently released the self-titled album of Black Dub, his reggae-laced rock debut. A bit of the Zombies creeps through on "Ring the Alarm" (surely more than Beyoncé gets in) and the purring guitars are Edge-friendly; the effect is accessible adult contemporary rock, and succinctly mixed (of course). With Rocco DeLuca.

According to a story this week in the Sports Business Journal, the Diamondbacks television ratings dropped 15 percent from last season.
Our first thought after seeing the report was that the drop could be explained by the network change; the Diamondbacks this past season went from split coverage on Channel 3 and Fox Sports Arizona to having all of them on FSNAZ. Games on Channel 3 used to carry ratings that were always a tick or two higher than cable.
But it turns out the numbers are only for FSNAZ, as the ratings went from an average of 4.8 on the cable station last season to 4.1 this year.
Certainly the Diamondbacks had a disappointing year -- and certainly they weren't the most exciting team to watch outside of the first month of the season -- but they were in the hunt for the division most of the season, so a 15 percent drop seemed a bit steep.
For answers, we turned to Brett Hansen, Fox Sports Arizona's director of communications and marketing, and he believes the biggest reason for the drop has to do with start times.
"In 2007, we had 14 games that started at 4 p.m. or earlier," Hansen wrote in an email. "This past season, we televised 66 games that started at 4 p.m. or earlier. Based on that alone, it's easy to see why ratings would be down."
For prime time games, the network's average rating was 4.8, Hansen said.
He also noted that for parts of the year the Diamondbacks were going against the Olympics and coverage of the Republican and Democratic conventions, all of which impacted the ratings.
What we know is fewer people watched the Diamondbacks this season than they had in previous years and that the short-term significance of this for the team isn't great because of the deal it signed last year.
This was the first year of an eight-year, $250 million contract with Fox Sports Arizona, so the dollars are locked in for the Diamondbacks through 2015.
The Diamondbacks' California League affiliate is no longer called the Visalia Oaks. The club is now known as the Visalia Rawhide.
Unfortunately, some were bound to feel the effects of the change, and mascot Chatter the squirrel is out of the picture.
But replacement Tipper the cow looks like he's up to the task.

Old Time Relijun subscribes to three basic tenets of life: Eat, drink, fuck. Bred in Olympia, Washington, the band carries a sound that is both primal and urgent -- as if barnyard animals were rioting through an uppity art college. The three-piece, fronted by the enigmatic vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Arrington de Dionyso, makes music like it makes love, and what is birthed is the bastard child of garage-folk rock. Old Time Relijun does it raw and naked, with instruments stripped to basics and tones that are derived organically without excessive guitar-pedal masturbation or full-stack tech wizardry. Upright-bassist Aaron Hartman jams free jazz into drummer Jamie Peterson's basic beats, while de Dionyso barks and trumps his voice with the reverence of a punk kid humbled by omniscient mountain spirits. Released late last year on K Records, 2012 is the act's most sparse and experimentally beaten album -- just like the good Mother Earth intended.

Happy Monday!
I was looking for a short workout on arrival home today. I settled on a new one from SULFABABY - found here - www.sparkpeople.com/mypage_public_journal_individual.asp?blog_id=4522842 or HERE - sulfababy.tumblr.com/post/11109201551/lumberjack which was actually 30 mins, so i halved it to have a nice lil 15 minute workout. Did i say 'nice lil'? Yeah... maybe shorter than it shouldn't be but i was REALLY feeling it in the final round and tiring fast!
I didn't do any kettlebell tonight - or pullups. I should do pullups again tomorrow night. Start week -1 day 1 i think. Hopefully i'll surprise myself and find my strength has improved with the rest from pullups!
Ack, i've also forgotten to do my Prague photo blog... (Thanks Vyv! :P) - i will do it soon, promise. Like TOMORROW. Yeah, there's a challenge for myself. Post Prague blog tomorrow night. I have also left on the sidelines my weightloss in pictures blog... I'll try and sort that out this weekend. The good news in that i have most of the pics i want to use all neatly organised in their own folders etc. Woop!
Oh oh and i forgot to mention. A friend and I have purchased 10 classes of 'Hot Yoga' , it was a cheap deal and i kind of talked her into it - for something different, and i don't feel confident to go alone! So we bought them and now we just have to book our first session, woohoo! What the heck do i wear?! The closest things to 'yoga pants' i have are maybe 3/4 length bottoms, but they're grey and my bum will look majorly wet from the sweat... disaster!
I can't stop yawning, need to get to bed pronto!
Ahhh. T'is Sunday evening. I had a nice day at work, got home and was feeling a bit tired.. until i started my workout. I planned to do a HIIT based on skipping. I've seen some friends suggest this link ( www.shapefit.com/exercise/jump-rope-workouts-cardio.html ) (Hello Feed_Me_Shoes! ;) ) and i think i had it recommended to me a while back as it's been in my bookmarks. Wells, i used this workout and did the following. I put my numbers next to 'em too.
20 rounds - 10s rest - 50s effort. (20 mins)
Jump rope - didn't count, was a challenge to keep the rope going LOL.
Mountain climbers-76
jump rope
bicycle crunch-65
jump rope
Prisoner squat-27
jump rope
jump rope
Plank hold
jump rope
Regular crunches-28
jump rope
Reverse lunge-22
jump rope
Squat thrust-24
jump rope
Side planks
jump rope
Reverse crunch-30.
Tired myself out typing it now! Early night needed i think. So afterwards, i had a while to wait still whilst the DH was preparing my roast dinner... so i added a couplet...
6 rounds 15s rest - 45s effort.
KB double hand swing-30-22-21
KB Goblet Squat-16-15-11
THEN because i wanted to add up to 30 mins, i skipped for 4 mins. That was a lot for me? lol.
Satisfied now and feeling good about myself. Enjoyed a nice big roast dinner and am nice and cosy. :D I must say - the new kettlebell is... a mixture of me looking at it and liking it, and looking at it and glaring at it. I'm still a bit afraid of it. It kills me.... heh, it really takes SO much effort and i'm struggling. I realise this is what i wanted (i've said this haven't i?) so this is the beginning... of getting stronger. You can't get strong by not being challenged, so i am half embracing these new struggles with open arms.
Also. I didn't know whether to write about this. I feel i don't have the energy to.(I'll share the links incase you're interested) I was checking out more of myomytv.com and did want to find some areas where BodyRock is mentioned, and what's the word on the street. To cut a long story short, i ended up reading and reading and reading, for over an hour. This link over at myomytv is very interesting - www.myomytv.com/bodyrock-tv-exposed-swing-this-for-tight-buns/comment-page-1/#comment-8938 . Marianne has pointed out a problem with Zuzana's sandbag swing. The page is so interesting to read the arguments both agreeing and disagreeing - which i have both agreed and disagreed with myself! There is also another very interesting article over at this page - www.huffingtonpost.com/charlotte-hilton-andersen/fitness-guru-and-exporn-s_b_807633.html .
The way i feel coming out of my reading, and mainly reading peoples comments... is, i feel a bit more 'educated'. I have a love in my heart for BodyRock.tv - and for Zuzana. She may not be perfect, her advice may not be the best or safest, her videos might be a bit raunchy or sexy to some... but i don't care. I like it and i use my common sense or my own judgement as to whether i'm going to follow advice etc, but i don't think i am a 'sheep' by wanting to call myself a BodyRocker. Nor do i think that if i stick with the workouts and diet, that i'll look like Zuzana as the end result - because i know i won't. Reading up on all this has helped me to take in information and learn more about myself. I'm really liking myomytv and Marianne, and i am open to read or use any advice people are offering about bettering yourself for your health and fitness.
I took a look in the mirror after my workout earlier. (and after my interesting reading) and i smiled. I thought, well, i might not be perfect, but i'm not too bad either? I might have that poofy belly, and jiggle here and there, but this is me and i like me. If i'm stuck like this always then that's ok. I'm enjoying working out and i'm enjoying eating healthy - but then having a good ol' pig out session. It struck me that i don't need to strive to be perfect, just make sure i am happy and content.
I'm sorry if this isn't making much sense - i'm really tired now and i have lots of words going around in my head. This is where i feel a bit stupid, and very far from smart, because i know what i'm thinking but i can't put it into words for other people to understand. It's just like a mi-match of word-vomit.
Anyways, i'm droaning on now. I'm going to keep doing what i'm doing. I haven't weighed in yet. So i haven't weighed in a good few weeks? That's ok... i will, soon, have a peak.
Always learning! :)
Happy Saturday!
Well yipes! I tried my first myomytv.com workout on arrival home tonight. I so did not want to workout hah, but i had copied it out into my workout file.... and y'know, i'm not sure if this was karma biting me on the bum or owt, but the workout i'd chosen was called "Work hard - play hard" - and i have had a MONSTER of a day to put it nicely. So i figured i couldn't not do this workout with a name like that after the day i've had!!
Link! www.myomytv.com/do-you-work-hard-to-play-hard-full-body-workout/
I did some practice moves and decided to cut it short. It should have been 6 rounds of 20 seconds rest and 40 seconds effort. With a bunch of 4 couplets. I'm new to these but really enjoyed them. Anyways i fiddled with the numbers and did 4 rounds of 15s rest and 45s effort, for each couplet.
It looked like this-
Jump rope - (didn't count!!)
Super girl pushup - 8-8
Kettlebell goblet squat-21-18
Kettlebell alt clean & press-5.5-6
Renegade Row-23-19
Alt KB swing - 25-27
Dynamic squats- 25-27
It doesn't look much at al - but it was 16 minutes and woah. Woah. Woah. I invested in the 14kgs kettlebell to be more of a challenge. I have 4.9kgs dumbells so figured i was lifting 10 with those, so opted for the 14. Well, i have given myself some challenge indeed. I'm glad i cut the workout down a bit... that kettlebell NEARLY killed me. Hah. It's GOOD though because i really have to PUSH and work hard for it... and this is what i wanted... isn't it? ISN'T IT?!
Hehe! So what an introduction to myomytv that was. That girl is hardcore. Can't wait to do more now! I have so many options now to pick workouts from, BodyRock, Sulfababy and myomy! No excuses! Yahoo!
I had pizza for dinner but it's fine. I had Chinese last night too and that's ok too. Balanced!
On to normal life, i can't wait for this weekend to be over. Today was such a nightmare... i had to deal with 2 staff not turning in, covering for one of them ALL day long and finding cover for the other... then some other little problems arose so i had to deal with those too. It's all good experience for me though. We don't grow to be wise without having obstacles put in front of us and testing us.
Here comes Sunday! :)
It's true to everyone that sometimes, when the body is telling the mind no or when that little voice in your head is persuading you to eat that extra portion, eat that extra snack, overindulge on whatever, skip that workout, quit that workout... you really just gotta get a hold of yourself and GRAND THEFT YO' BOOTAY! ;)
Heh. Inspiration from today's BodyRock workout. Grand Theft Booty + Counter Strike workout mash up! www.bodyrock.tv/2011/01/17/workout-mash-up-grand-theft-booty-counter-strike-workouts/
Fun fun. And it looks really simple on paper... but it's one of those that haves you sweating right from the start and thinking "oh jeez, i'm never gonna underestimate a bodyrock workout again!"... yet we still do. :P Had a bunch of fun with this and felt myself improving on the one leg and pistol squats. They're not all the way-butt-to-the-floor low but ya know, the improvement is there. :)
I currently have a load of veggies roasting in the oven and i wish i could post a sniff link! Its smelling pretty amazing right now!! It's reminding me a little of pizza... but i'm not having pizza, i might just add some ketchup to make me think i am. Hah, the veggies will be amazing alone!
Yesterday i did BodyRock's Quantum of Sweat workout. It went well and i enjoyed it, apart from wanting to cry with whipping myself with my skipping rope. I'm still new to using the actual rope on skipping parts... and with the limited space i use in my living room, i am skipping but trying to keep the trail narrow so as not to catch the couch, or radiator, or keep it low enough not to wrap around a light...it's quite a task! I kept whipping my left hand for some reason... and really, during the second part of the workout i wanted to just drop to my knees and cry. My poor handy! I took a picture (lol) 0
Doesn't really looks so bad but i tell ya... the paaaaaiin ... *sobs*
Ok it's almost Friday. Woop? No 'woop's for me - i am working all weekend long... pffft... so have to wait until next weekend for some fun time off. It's all good - another day another dollar! (Or pound, for me. :P)
Veggies & bath tonight! Happy Thursday peeps! :)
Decided on another great by Sulfababy for my workout this evening. I just feel so happy and ALIVE right now.. I feel like ME again, this is me, jump around my day with positivity and then look forward to getting home for my workout. Yyyeah!
Sulfa's workout by the way is here sulfababy.tumblr.com/post/10897449869/i-came-to-get-down You should do it! hehe, lots of fun!
So I had a nice Tuesday. Almost forgot some important work but then got it done on time... LOL. I'm a bit... scatty sometimes. Had a gorgeous 'skinny soup' for dins, "New England Butternut Squash" - very yums. And perfectly light too.
A quick food shop on the way home - and i wanted to buy a nice new notebook while i was there but forgot! I have some new ideas i want to keep record of and track and i want a nice snazzy new notebook... darn my memory!! Ohhh and i bought a kettlebell on Amazon last week, it arrived today! A 14kgs one, i've been needing something a bit heavier, and after checking out a few workouts at myomytv.com i figure a kettlebell would be handy to own so i can attempt a workout from there. It's heavy! :) It sure had my work-mates guessing!
So i got home and was a bit scared/worried about taking my bandage off. I know that the nurse kind of had to dig into my arm to get my implant out - so i was nervous about seeing what it looked like. I should have had the bandage off by now to put a new dressing on so i took it off and braved it. It's not bad at all! It has a big criss cross of tape over the wound so i can't see that properly, and the tape is rather secure, so i decided to do my workout as it was. I was careful, and had to be especially careful on the rolling burpees. I showered afterwards and made sure not to drown it, patted it dry and now i think i'll leave it uncovered maybe until morning... well, i haven't decided if i should dress it for bed to protect it to clumsy-sleeping-me or wait until morning so the dressing will be even fresher - as i only have one! Hmmm... i don't know yet.
It's starting to bruise a bit now and i have little dents in my arm... not sure where they come from and if they're going to go anywhere!
Rightio! Bed time me thinks! It's funny because the ONLY draw back of being on board with myself and working out and stuff, is i sometimes end up getting up in the middle of the night because i'm drinking so much water, or i might wake up with a huge tummy because i need a massive wee when i wake up- i drink a shed load of water after my workout to compensate for sweating... but i drink lots of water when i'm feeling good anyway... oh well, i can live with it!
Ciao !

DARTH VADER AND SON - Jeffrey Brown
I love that this isn't just one for the kids! What if "Luke I am your father" wasn't a shocking revelation, but a way of disciplining a 4 year old Luke Skywalker? It's hilarious and beautifully drawn.
Although I've technically never seen the trilogy (yes, I know, shush) I did get most of the references throughout this book. Most children who read it won't really know what's going on but Dylan still seems to enjoy flicking through and pointing objects and moods out to me.
An absolute must for all geeky parents and geeks-to-be!
Hardback retails for £9.99.
