Cook SmartsRead MoreWhen Jess Dang started Cook Smarts in 2011, she didn't entirely realize what she was getting into. At the time, she was working a corporate desk job by day and unwinding in the kitchen by night, mastering the skills she would soon introduce to the digital world. Her culinary hobby became a blog, then a catering service, and then a supper club for her friends. Cook Smarts was a way for Dang to make cooking a full-time gig, and started as kitchen lessons for home cooks and high-school students. But one thing became clear the more lessons she gave: most Americans simply don't have a firm grip on the fundamentals of the kitchen—from knife skills to food storage to making the most of a limited budget. That's where meal plans come in. By designing simple, delicious, and healthy meal plans in week-long increments, Dang makes it easy for even beginner cooks to earn their kitchen legs. These plans take into account such lifestyles as vegetarianism, paleo, and gluten-free diets. Even better, the plans build off of each other by reusing ingredients and incorporating leftovers to simplify grocery shopping. Supplemented by Dang's informative online lessons, meal plans demystify the kitchen from the pantry to the broiler.UnknownMountain View, CA US
Casablanca MarketRead MoreCasablanca Market brings its collection of leather ottomans, hand-painted tables, Berber pillows, intricate mirrors, Moroccan tea glasses and tagines as they arrive stateside straight from the hands of Moroccan artisans, many of whom learned their skills as a family tradition. Hand-painted chairs and hand-woven carpets enliven rooms with vibrant colors and boast unique designs, unlike template rugs sewn by unimaginative robots. Shoppers can further their knowledge of Moroccan culture by attending the shop's cooking classes, which feature traditional recipes and ingredients. The market follows fair-trade practices to ensure artisans receive good compensation for their work and have their pay in hand before their goods ship overseas.793 Castro StMountain View, CA US
Petit FleursRead MoreFor a flaky croissant or old-fashioned chocolate chip cookie, Petit Fleurs in Fremont's Mission Valley neighborhood is the best bakery around. Parking is plentiful, so guests can feel free to bring their vehicles. So if you're craving some cookies or pastries, head on over to Petit Fleurs and indulge in some bakery classics.41364 Paseo Padre ParkwayFremont, CA US
Sugar 'n SpiceRead MoreBoth kids and adults can learn the art of cake decoration within the walls of Sugar 'n Spice. During classes, they fill bags with buttercream icing and pipe flowers, ruffles, and letters on the tops of cakes and cupcakes. Grown-ups can even learn to bake cakes and cake pops for upcoming birthdays, weddings, or mortgage closings. Those wanting to practice their skills at home can pick up the necessary accoutrements at the on-site shop.2965 Junipero Serra BlvdDaly City, CA US
Collard GalRead MoreSignature service: Wellness Coaching and Cooking Classes Established: 2010 Reservations/Appointments: Required Staff Size: 2–10 people Average Duration of Services: 1–2 hours Brands Used: Vegetables Pro Tip: These classes are best for people looking for everyday cooking skills and inspiration Q&A with Psalm Lewis, Owner Sometimes it's all about the little things in life. What supplemental courtesies do you include with your main services to leave clients with a smile on their face? We give out a class booklet that includes shopping lists and healthy kitchen stocking tips. Folks walk away knowing they can recreate demonstrated dishes and improvise for delicious results. When and how did you first develop a passion for your work? I took a vegetarian cooking class with my little brother and it helped me to get cooking. Watching the Chef make the dishes and being able to taste a variety of ingredients I wasn't familiar with helped me to connect with the cookbooks I had at home. Is there anything else you want to add that we didn't cover? My classes are practical and make sure the cooking process is accessible to the home chef. This is about cooking that fits the lifestyle of everyday people. You don't have to be vegan to enjoy more vegetables daily.500 William StreetOakland, CA US
Cafe ColucciRead MoreIf you ask Cafe Colucci founder Fetlework Tefferi, the secret to Ethiopian cooking is in the spices. In fact, they're such an integral part of the cooking that the cafe's sister company, Brundo Ethiopian Spices, manages all of the cafe's imports and the kitchen staff of acclaimed Ethiopian chefs manages the onsite spice blending. With that dedication to quality, freshness, and authenticity, the result is a menu of explosively flavorful takes on Ethiopian food—with vegetarian and meat options—that ranges from fiery to mild. Most people learn something new on a visit to Cafe Colucci, too: the back of the menu lists a glossary of Ethiopian culinary terms and accessible Ethiopian cooking classes are available to the public.1960 Mandela Parkway, Bay 6Oakland, CA US

Posted September 19, 2013 on AP on Fox
Wil Myers' sense of relief was easy to see. The Tampa Bay right fielder was let off the hook for a defensive lapse Wednesday night that put the Texas Rangers ahead in the 11th inning of a matchup between AL wild-card leaders when the Rays rallied for a 4-3 victory in the 12th. After the Rays tied it in the bottom of the 11th, the Rookie of the Year candidate could be seen saying ''Thank God,'' in the dugout. With two outs in the 11th, Myers lackadaisically approached Adrian Beltre's single to right field with Elvis Andrus on first base. The speedy Rangers shortstop got a great jump off first and scored on the play to put Texas up 3-2. ''I should have been more aware of the situation that was going on and who was running, and charge the ball with more aggressiveness,'' Myers said. ''It's one of those things that you learn from and you don't let it happen again. If I'm in that situation again I've got to know who's running.'' Myers got a reprieve in the bottom of the 11th when Da...

Hornets stars Paul, West selected as NBA All-Star reserves
Published: Wednesday, January 30, 2008 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 31, 2008 at 8:44 p.m.
NEW YORK Chris Paul and David West were picked for their first All-Star game Thursday night, giving the hometown Hornets a pair of players for the event New Orleans will host next month.
Detroit, Phoenix and Washington also had multiple players chosen as reserves for the Feb. 17 game. Boston will only send two of its Big Three to the Big Easy. Paul Pierce was voted in by Eastern Conference head coaches to join starter Kevin Garnett, but Ray Allen fell short.
The Pistons Chauncey Billups and Richard Hamilton are headed back for the third straight year, while the Suns will be represented by Steve Nash and Amare Stoudemire. Caron Butler and Antawn Jamison also were recognized for their strong play, which has kept the Wizards in the middle of the playoff race despite the absence of injured guard Gilbert Arenas.
Torontos Chris Bosh and Atlanta guard Joe Johnson were the other players picked for the East, which will be coached by Bostons Doc Rivers. Dallas forward Dirk Nowitzki, the reigning NBA MVP, Utahs Carlos Boozer and Portland guard Brandon Roy were selected from the West.
Paul, Nash and Roy emerged from a crowded group of West guards to beat out the likes of Golden States Baron Davis, Utah point guard Deron Williams, and Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili from the defending champion San Antonio Spurs.
Paul, the 2006 Rookie of the Year, and West have helped the Hornets to a 32-13 record, which led the Southwest Division entering the night. New Orleans could still get another representative, as Byron Scott will coach the West if the Hornets win their next game, or Dallas loses either of its next two.
Paul is averaging 20.8 points, 10.7 assists and a league-leading 2.6 steals. He has just one fewer steal (110) than turnover for the season. David West averages 19.6 points and 9.4 rebounds.
Garnett, LeBron James, Orlandos Dwight Howard, New Jerseys Jason Kidd and Miamis Dwyane Wade were voted by fans to start for the East. The West starters are Denvers Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson, the Lakers Kobe Bryant, San Antonio forward Tim Duncan and Houston center Yao Ming.
Besides the tough choices at guards, the West center spot was deep, with Stoudemire beating out Denvers Marcus Camby and the Hornets Tyson Chandler. Nowitzki was hoping teammate Josh Howard would be selected as a forward.
AP Sports Writers Jimmy Golen in Boston, Larry Lage in Auburn Hills, Mich., and Joseph White in Washington contributed to this report.

LA: Other

Memorial Day
When I was a freshman in high school back in Austin, Texas, I fell madly in love with the boy who sat behind me in my English class. His name was Tim. He had dark brown hair that fell across his forehead and dark blue eyes that sparkled every time I turned around to tell him to stop kicking my chair. He wore a beat-up, 40s-era bomber jacket and could make archaic slang words like "swell" sound effortlessly new. If someone insulted him -- you know, with one of those classic high school put-downs that usually involved unspeakable acts with farm animals or insinuations about inbreeding -- Tim would pause, slowly nod his head, smile and say, "oh yeah?" He was ridiculously handsome, even at 15, and managed to carry it off with a goodhearted sheepishness that made teachers look the other way when he ambled into class late -- and convinced me (to the depths of my very soul!) that he was the most exceptional creature on planet earth and if I lived to be a hundred I'd never be able to express the extent of my feelings for him.
Instead, I played it cool. We talked about Shakespeare and The Clash when we bumped into each other at our lockers. I tried not to stutter when we split a beer together at a party -- the one where he confessed that he believed in fate and that was why he didn't worry about things. I told him that I thought fate needed a good kick in the ass most of the time. He laughed and said it was more fun to go with the flow than to fight.
In fact, the only time I ever saw Tim get into a fight was when one of the football players picked on a nerdy drama kid at an outdoor concert in the park. I wish I could say Tim pummelled the bully in a scene worthy of Clint Eastwood. It wasn't quite like that. But after an inelegant scuffle of a few thudding punches, Tim walked away with the grace of a triumphant samurai.
Tim and I never became real sweethearts, but we remained good friends throughout high school. Whenever my boyfriend broke my heart, Tim let me cry on his shoulder and flirted with me just enough to make my boyfriend jealous. At graduation, Tim was the first person I hugged. Tim was also the last person I ever expected to tell me he was joining the Marines.
"I'll see the world and do some good," he said. And then he laughed and said, "Or knowing me, maybe I'll just get in all kinds of trouble."
He was killed the following year in the bombing of the Marine barracks in Beirut, Lebanon. He was 19.
It's Memorial Day here in the United States. A time for most people to sleep late and linger over coffee before applying sunscreen, stocking the cooler and tossing the steaks on the grill. Those are all good things. In fact, they're the kind of good things that most of the members of our armed forces think about when they're stationed around the planet seeing the world, doing some good and, too often, getting in all kinds of trouble.
Lets take a moment to remember the ones who never made it home.
In remembrance of Timothy McMahon, 1964-1983

Out and About with LAOther: The Palm Springs Aerial Tramway
Want an easy ticket to a real winter wonderland? Just hop aboard the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway and in a stunning 15 minute ride you'll be almost 9000 feet up on top of beautiful Mt. San Jacinto which, during most of the winter, looks a lot like it does in the above video. (Not sure? Just check the current weather right here.)
No snow chains required, and you can go swimming in Palm Springs when you get back down. And people wonder why I love Southern California so much...

Quantum Mechanics ... and the Farmer's Market
Schrödinger said it was the defining trait of quantum theory. What is it? It's that quirky talent discovered by quantum physicists whereby a weird telepathic link allows teeny tiny subatomic particles to mysteriously influence each other's properties even if they are very far away from one another. These particles are linked together -- or entangled -- so that one can't be sufficiently described without a full mention of its counterpart. In fact, you can instantly influence the properties of a particle on the opposite end of the universe by merely nudging its entangled twin. Some say the power travels at millions of times the speed of light. Even Einstein was baffled. He called it too spooky to be real.
Okay, so I can't really get my head around it either.
But it gets me thinking…
The overly simplified but deeply poetic explanation of chaos theory told us that a butterfly beating its wings can eventually lead to a storm on the other side of the world. Everything is connected. Everything affects everything else. Some physicists now think quantum entanglement has macro implications, too.
So lets extrapolate ... or perhaps just take huge license with scientific theory. Sometimes it really does feel like little patches of life are oddly harmonious, as if seemingly separate things -- and people -- are somehow connected. For example: here at the Farmer's Market the people strolling along seemed to just fall into a perfectly aligned formation and simultaneously smile, as if each separate individual was – somehow – inextricably linked. I couldn't have choreographed it any better. Coincidence? Probably. Entanglement? Heck, I'm gonna go with that...

We're All Children of the Corn...(Out and About at Lombardi Ranch in Saugus)
Watch on full screen if you are on a computer!
When I think of LA County, a few things come to mind...
Palm trees.
Vast, creepy corn mazes worthy of a Stephen King novel.
Wait, what?
Okay, so Los Angeles isn't a big corn maze mecca ... but it does have a dandy one right at the Lombardi Ranch in Saugus. From late summer through November, this family-owned working farm grows tomatoes, onions, peppers, squashes, melons, flowers, pumpkins and corn. (I don't mean a few cute stalks for atmosphere, I'm talking rows upon meandering rows of corn laid out in an actual maze. Seriously, I'm surprised an alien hasn't placed a crop circle in the middle of it.)
During October, the ranch is a veritable fall wonderland with all kinds of activities including pumpkin picking, a petting zoo, wagon and train rides, face painting, a scarecrow making contest and an opportunity to wander around the mother of all corn mazes!

Sometimes it's Okay to Play Games (Out and About at Game Haus in Glendale)
Click full screen on computers for the best view!
What happens when you combine caffeine and 850 board games? Find out as Jon, Raine and I check out Game Haus, a board game library and cafe at 1800 S. Grand in Glendale. (It's in the historic Seeley Studios building.) This is seriously one of the coolest places to spend an afternoon, but it's almost impossible to choose from among so many rare and bizarre games. Of course, you'll find the usual amusements like Risk and Battleship, but when is the last time you sat down to a competitive round of Killer Bunnies or The Game of Nuclear War?
You have been warned.

Joy Ride through South Pasadena
Click full screen if you're watching this on a computer!
When I first moved to South Pasadena almost 8 years ago, I noticed that old buildings and heritage trees were not the only historic reminders of the past. The town has a LOT of vintage cars. Hang out in front of Busters on a weekend afternoon and you'll see a promenade of enough old roadsters, coupes and muscle cars to satisfy even the most persnickety car buff. I'm not just talking about your standard issue American Graffiti-worthy hot rods, either. I've spotted a late 1930s Peugot 402, 1949 Hudson Commodore and a mysterious, black sedan that confounded two car aficionados arguing about it nearby. (One insisted it was an unmarked 1939 Cadillac. The other swore it was a Citroen Traction Avant.)
It's not surprising that South Pasadena, Pasadena and the surrounding areas have so many examples of our driving history. The area has always held a prominent spot in the changing landscape of Southern California transportation. Back at the turn of the 20th Century, the horseless carriage was considered no more than an amusement created by eccentrics. The future, according to those in the know, would not be paved with asphalt but rather etched in rail.
In 1901, Henry Huntington incorporated the Pacific Electric Railway Company and began work on what would eventually develop into the largest interurban electric rail system in the world. One of the main hubs was Oneonta Station, located at the corner of present-day Huntington Drive and Fair Oaks in South Pasadena. This spot marked the junction of the Pasadena Short Line and the Monrovia line, two of the most important Big Red Car trolley routes. Within a few decades, a huge network of trains and streetcars wound their way through Southern California, connecting Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, San Bernardino and Riverside counties. The system was hailed as the one to copy, and reporters all over the world began to refer to Los Angeles as a mecca of reliable public transportation. South Pasadena was at the heart of it all.
But by the mid-1920s, those reliable trolleys had been upstaged by Henry Ford's mass-produced, reasonably-priced automobiles. No longer a carnival curiosity or novelty, the personal car was becoming a viable means of transportation. By the time the Model T was discontinued in 1927, Ford had sold some 15 million cars – many to Southern California residents. San Gabriel Valley contractors had a huge upsurge in business as local homeowners tore down carriage houses to build carports and garages. The trolleys might have been efficient and dependable, but the mild SoCal climate tempted residents to put the top down and cruise around.
While the Red Car line continued for several more decades, it was no match for our region's growing obsession with cars. Little by little, rail rights of way were lost to the roads. Once again, South Pasadena was part of an enormous transportation shift when the Arroyo Parkway – now known as the 110 or Pasadena Freeway – opened in December of 1940. Similar to how the rails had once made South Pasadena , the Arroyo Parkway etched the city forever into the region's road maps. "Travel down the Arroyo Parkway," on reporter wrote, "and you'll end up in the fairest city of all: South Pasadena."
Although the Pennsylvania Turnpike had opened a few months earlier, many historians argue that the Arroyo Parkway more closely matches the definition of an actual freeway. Hailed at the time as a marvel of motoring, the sleek, well-paved Parkway offered South Pasadenans and neighboring residents the chance to open up their vehicles full-throttle and travel at top speeds. Connecting downtown LA with Pasadena along the Arroyo Seco, the parkway was revolutionary because engineers had designed the gently curving road to accommodate modern speeds up to a dizzying 45 miles per hour.
The 110 we know today is almost identical to the one that beckoned South Pasadena car lovers 60 years ago, with modern SUVs whipping over those 45 mph curves at speeds the original engineers would never have believed possible. It is a National Scenic Byway, a National Civil Engineering Landmark and a State Scenic Highway. And if you sit at the overlook on Arroyo Drive and watch the traffic flow, you'll see a lot of vintage cars heading to and from South Pasadena.
Every September, South Pasadena puts its love of classic cars on display by hosting the Cruz'N For Roses Hot Rod and Classic Car Show. There, local car owners are joined by hundreds of others around the region in a display of enough steel, chrome and shiny paint to make the most jaded gearhead swoon. Proceeds of the event go toward South Pasadena's Tournament of Roses Parade float.
The original owners of those vintage cars discovered something that is still true today: when you're behind the wheel on the open road, it's not always about the destination. Most of the fun is in getting there.
(Car buffs, be sure to check out this great historical footage of the original Ford assembly line.)

Gimme a Minute! #1 -- The Getty Villa
60 seconds at the Getty
Be sure to click full screen if you are on a computer. If you're on a smart phone, just hit play.
Be sure to click full screen if you are on a computer. If you're on a smart phone, just hit play.
The Getty Villa is more than a museum, it's kind of like a combination Ancient Roman movie set and fantasy vacation house. Home to the J. Paul Getty Museum's antiquities collection, the Villa houses art from ancient Greece and Rome dating from about 6500 BC to 400 AD. The art is amazing enough, but the actual grounds, gardens and buildings are what I love most. Built in the early 1970s by architects working hand in hand with J. Paul Getty, the villa is a recreation of a first century Roman country house called the Villa dei Papiri in Herculaneum, Italy. Yes, THAT Herculaneum ... the one that got buried along with Pompei after Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79. (Much of the Villa dei Papiri still remains unexcavated, but the Getty Foundation was cool enough to have created this virtual tour of what it was like back when Julius Caesar's father-in-law lived there.)
If you want to experience lifestyles of the ancient rich and famous, just walk around the Getty Villa's tiled walkways and admire the mosaics, fresco paintings, fountains, gardens, and sculptures with creepy eyeballs that are supposedly closer to what the actual ancient sculptors created. (Although, recent artistic sleuthing has uncovered that ancient Greece and Rome wasn't nearly as classical and monochromatic as we imagine it ... those beautiful, white statues were originally painted!)

Playing With: Difficult but Awesome
Basic Trope: A video game character is hard to master, but nearly unstoppable once you manage it.
Back to Difficult but Awesome
- Straight: Alice, from "Super Beat 'em Up 9000: The Prequel to The Movie: The Game", has combos that are hard to both set up and use, but once you learn both when to start a combo and how to keep them going Alice is hard to take down.
- Exaggerated:
- Alice is incredibly difficult to use, but once mastered you've mastered her techniques, she becomes literally impossible to defeat, turning into an all powerful invincible monster.
- Lethal Joke Character
- Downplayed: Alice's combos focus on taking advantage of "states", such after attacks or mid jump, in order to the most damage with her attacks, her moves can be learned easy enough, once you learn what move to use with what state she can deal the most damage in the game.
- Justified:
- Alice has a demon trapped inside her, only with near perfect control and mastery can one harness its power and through her use it on their enemies.
- The fighting style of Alice is hard to use randomly, meant for strikes at the right time or place, making it harder to use her as you cannot use attacks loosely.
- Inverted:
- Alice is grossly overpowered, and requires absolutely no skill to use.
- Alice is Awesome but Impractical, she's awesome, but very easy to defeat.
- Skill Gate Characters
- Subverted: Alice uses nothing but a high arching projectile weapon, making her completely unable to defend herself from close range attacks. She can shoot rapidly and aim it in any direction, but her attack does 1 damage each and fling her backwards in the opposite direction of shooting. She has no special combos or other moves, or any other noteworthy quality. . .
- Double Subverted: . . . Until skilled players realized that by with perfect precision and skill, the gun can be used by experienced players to fly over other players heads and shoot enemies below. However, the arch makes getting the correct projection nearly impossible to fly and hit players on the ground, making her Difficult but Awesome.
- Parodied: Alice can take one hit and explodes if you move your character from her starting position. To attack, you have to enter a 30 button combo. Once you enter this combo, you attack once. The attack instantly kills the other player. But without extreme practice and skill, good luck pulling it off.
- Zig Zagged: ???
- Averted: Alice is in a children's education game. There are no characters to master.
- Enforced: "Some characters will be harder to use than others, to balance them, let's make them extremely powerful if mastered."
- Lampshaded: "If you can time her usage correctly, she becomes a beast."
- Invoked: "Alice? She's a Bitch to use, but if you can master her, she's Difficult but Awesome."
- Exploited: In the Metagame, knowing her high potential, skillful players use no other character except Alice.
- Defied: No characters in Super Beat 'em Up are Difficult but Awesome. All characters are about average.
- Discussed: "Alice usually sucks, but right now she's killing me! How is she pulling off those impossible to use combos?"
- Conversed: "Alice is the best character once you've mastered her."
- Deconstructed: Every single one of Alice's moves is powerful, but each move must be a combo to even be used, she has such an insanely difficult difficulty curve to work with that no one is willing to play her . . .
- Reconstructed: . . . Until players decide to man up and play her. Eventually, they master even her impossibly difficult play style, and her powerful rapid combos make her nearly unbeateable.
Back to Difficult but Awesome

The best part of the job was interacting with guests from all over the world. Spending your days off exploring all beautiful Whistler Snowboarding, hiking, zip lining, or maybe a day trip to catch a hockey games in Vancouver.
Working with a diverse team also allowed me to grow my management skills and learn to interact with different people and cultures as well as making sure production and efficiencies were moving on target.
hardest part of the job would have been some language barriers between some international guests. But we would always do our best to assist the guest in the most professional, friendliest way possible.
It was a dream experience and I am glad I had the opportunity to live, work, and play in Whistler.

text: http://forums.androidcentral.com – I really am. Just wondering if any AT&T customers are debating jumping ship? Tempted by their un-congested network and unlimited data. I use a lot and hate AT&T's throttling with the old unlimited plan. I also hate that AT&T throttles speeds during calls. The largest GSM carrier in the U.S also likes to forbid users from turning off 3G and LTE. Seriously, anyone tempted to switch to T-Mobile? For me, its either upgrade and sign another 2yr contract with AT&T or T-Mobile and have so much more for less. The only thing that STOPS me is how inconsistent their network is (HowTos)

Fasten your seatbelts for this sexy and original drama series, which follows the lives and loves of six airline cabin crew from sharing a house in London, to traveling across different countries and time zones. Filmed on location in London and Spain, MILE HIGH is a potent mix of fast paced drama and comedy. Young and sexy, they work hard and play even harder! Gripping, glamorous and entertaining, it is a show that is audacious and irreverent, with some serious moments and real characters at its heart.
What do the pilots and cabin crew really do to both in and out of uniform? MILE HIGH is the fast, sexy and gripping 13-part drama that follows the lives and loves of an airline cabin crew working for a young budget airline.
Perhaps the best way to describe this hit British television show is to use one of that country's most enduring slang terms: "cheeky." Mile High is a silly, giddy program about the perpetually randy flight crew of Fresh!, a budget airline that serves holiday-goers across Europe. The nominal hero of the series' first season (2003) is Fresh's newest member, Marco (Tom Wisdom), whose role is to react incredulously to the hijinks of the veteran crew and passengers. Said misadventures include an underage girl who accuses him of assault (Episode 5), a documentary team that threatens to expose the crew's lustful escapades (Episode 8), Marco's father's heart attack--which occurs after he sleeps with one of the crew (Episode 9), and Marco's bedroom romp with a royal relative (Episode 12). It's rude but lighthearted fun, and offensive only to those who'll find the sort of subject matter bandied about on cable television beyond the pale (though the amount of nudity--both male and female--exceeds anything seen on Stateside TV). All 13 episodes of the debut season are included in the four-disc set; devoted fans will undoubtedly be disappointed to discover that no supplemental features are included. -- Paul Gaita

Weight Issues & Suspension
Guzman failed to make the contracted weights for several of his biggest fights. In 2006, he came in 2 1/2 pounds over the 130 pound limit against Javier Jauregui 51-12-2 (35 KOs), a bout Guzman won by unanimous decision. In 2008, he again failed to make weight for a Showtime main event against Nate Campbell for the WBA super, WBO and IBF Lightweight Titles. The bout was cancelled on the day of the fight. In his 2010 rematch with Ali Funeka for the IBF Lightweight Title which aired on HBO, Guzman came in nine pound over the 135 pound limit and was fined $30,000. The bout went on as planned with the title only being at stake for Funeka, who later failed the post-fight drug test. In Guzman's next bout against the unheralded Jason Davis, Guzman failed the post-fight drug test when he tested positive for the banned diuretic furosemide. The bout was ruled a no-contest, Guzman was suspended for eight months by the Nevada State Athletic Commission and fined $3,750 (25% of his purse). He too was released from his promotional contract with Golden Boy Promotions. In his 2012 bout against Jesus Pabon which aired as the main event on ESPN Friday Night Fights, it took three weigh-ins for Guzman to make the 140 pound limit.

She was a lot less annoying than Uhura in the movie, but aside from her connection with her father there's no real point to the character. I doubt we'll be seeing her again as it'd be redundant.
Though I thought the same about Pike and Prime Spock. The production team seem to love repetition.
Unless her connection Marcus is a plot point again, I don't see how it would be redundant. The next step for her character would be building a connection with Kirk. Not sure if having characters continue from film to film is redundant. Are Q and M redundant because they appear in multiple Bond films?

Visited for business. Beautiful hotel. The staff were awsome. Room was small but really well appointed. The location is great as the Village Market has some great shopping and food. Felt very secure. Highly recommended!
For the price, I expected much better. I booked a Loft Business suite, only to discover on check-in that the suite was all on one floor with much less separation of work and sleep areas than shown on the website.The service was variable. Food in the restaurant was not what I expect at a 5 star hotel. My colleague tried to get a substitution at the restaurant to accommodate a food allergy but there was so much miscommunication, she ended up with a very disappointing meal. The hotel is beautifully designed and decorated but not worth the price they are charging.
Simply happy with the customer care. Especially with the porters and drivers. Very helpful and genuinely friendly. Architecture is wonderful. A bit of disappointment in the eating area. But generally it was welcoming and wonderful
I visited tribe hotel in the whole of April 13.welcoming of the guest is waoh,the place is situated next to village market a very cool place without any disturbing noise.security is definitely superb due to their well trained securities.food was soo delicious,accommodation well catered
I stayed at the Tribe Hotel on a business trip in April 13 end. It's a nice hotel in an upmarket locality of Nairobi. The hotel is nicely designed and the service is good. The rooms are a bit small though. The stay of 3 days was nice and delightful. The business conference in the hotel was well organized. A memorable stay.
We have stayed at this hotel multiple times for business as it is in a safe area and conveniently located next to Village Market. The staff are exceptional, rooms are immaculate, and the place is always buzzing with interesting people and cool events. The only downside, which I have experienced on every visit is that the rooms are not well insulated from noise so every time someone near your room closes their door it is startling and in the back of the hotel you can hear the traffic. I am a very heavy sleeper and it still disturbs me. The spa is really nice! I recommend Lucyanno for a the perfect mani pedi.
I stayed at the Tribe Hotel in Nairobi. The rooms are clean and very attractive, the staff is nice and the restaurant is very good. The security is excellent, and as I was traveling for business, it was the hotel that was recommended by the US Embassy. Would definitely stay there again.
