Skip to comments.Muslim-led nations seek ban on insult
Posted on 09/25/2012 3:38:17 AM PDT by markomalley
As the U.N. General Assembly convenes this week in New York, several leaders of mostly Muslim nations are suggesting that the world body consider sanctions on blasphemy, amid widespread protests against an amateur movie that denigrates Islams Prophet Muhammad.
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said he will focus at least part of his remarks on the film when he addresses the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday.
I am the prime minister of a nation, of which most are Muslims, that has declared anti-Semitism a crime against humanity. But the West hasnt recognized Islamophobia as a crime against humanity. It has encouraged it, Mr. Erdogan told reporters last week.
Turkey heads the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, a body of 57 nations, which has long pushed for a U.N. resolution condemning the defamation of religion.
Nonbinding versions of the resolution have been adopted, but the effort was crushed last year by religious groups and human rights activists who argued that it represented a dangerous step toward an international law against free speech.
The debate has been reignited by Innocence of Muslims, a crudely produced film made in the United States that has sparked fury in the Muslim world. Protesters have breached the walls at U.S. embassies and desecrated American flags in sometimes violent demonstrations. A protest in the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi ended with the deaths of the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans.
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton appealed Monday to Muslims to show dignity and not resort to violence as they protest the film, the Associated Press reported.

It is becoming clear this is the coordinated attack on first amendment much like the fast and furious initiative against the second admendment. The guys really do want complete control.
He wrote about it in his book why is anyone surprised?
I'm curious to see how any American supporting this protection of Islam squares it with applying the same standard to Christianity (or any other religion for that matter).
First the ban, then the requirement to convert to islam.
It isn't a phobia when something is a clear and present danger.
Islam is no more religion than Communism. Fear and loathing of one is the same as the other. Both systems seek to destroy what the creators of our nation wrought; an unthinkable act.
Turkey heads the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, a body of 57 nations,
Organization of Islamic Cooperation=Caliphate
We as citizens must seriously consider the attacks being made on the 1st Amendment and 2nd Amendment. These two amendments essentially constitute our oxygen.
>> Islam is no more religion than Communism
Islam is a war plan that's alleged to have murdered, raped, or enslaved over 250 million Christians and Jews.
Remember also that the Islamic-Jihadist-appeasing and Moose-limb Brotherhood-supporting, commie, scumbag, Dear Leader, repeatedly has said that he consider Erdogan to be a close personal friend and one of the five top international friends. ...
It is an assault on free speech, and a grab for control alright. First Islam will be protected. Then "to be fair" other religions too. But I ask you, how big does a religion have to be to be protected against these hate/thought crimes? Certainly we don't want to discriminate... Every kook out there - and not a few well planned and backed groups - will spring up with a religious grievance. Goodbye to everything on the liberal hit list: talk radio, internet sites like this, you name it. The list of forbidden words phrases, actions, thoughts will grow by leaps and bounds. All in the name of not offending anyone's religion, but really just to control us, stifle dissent from their power... The easy result of this thought experiment is to see there is no reasonable bound, best not to start down this path at all. Best to recognize no one ever promised you wouldn't be offended. Get over yourself, suck it up.
A phobia is an irrational fear.
If this was 1944 this would be the same as having the POTUS backing the arrests of anyone saying Hitler was evil.
islam is wrong, wrong wrong.
If we have to become rebellious crusaders against Islam forced to conceal our identity, forced to lie to protect our families, forced to hold secret meetings with others like an underground resistance waging war against an invasive cult.
As well he should, being the head of the largest "Moslem led nation."
islam is in itself an insult and a crime against humanity. The entire 'civilized' world should ban it and then shun any nation which practices it. It is completely incompatible with Western civilization and the West is being brought low by its perpetual toleration of the intolerable.
Appeasement is suicide.
How heavily enforced are antisemitism laws enforced in other countries? I doubt that saying anything against Jews is really punished. It is when those words and actions are combined with criminal acts such as rape, robbery and murder then it is punished more so for the crime.
/sarc/ Muslims need to put forth their kinder gentler side. /sarc/ LOL
>Turkey heads the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, a body of 57 nations,
Now I know why 0bama slipped and said 57 states. The POS is a practicing islamist. Smart money says his daughters marry a scumuzzy.
The movie protests were started to hide Hillary's incompetence. The Arabs would have never heard of it if not for her.
Perhaps she will have equal vigor in condemning the Mooselip murder of Christians and Jews as she is ending free speech?
Pray for America
His daughters are elitist who will not marry because it is beneath them to do so
The Muslim community can NOT force me to bow to Islam. Can't be done. I will die before blaspheming the name of God and accepting that religion which is directly opposed to God, Christ and Christianity. We allow them to practice their religion here (which IS a mistake) and they where they live do not allow the practice of any other religion as much as is possible for them to prevent it. Total hypocrisy.
Dang. I think you're on to something.
Yep, it's a set up and Islamism is incompatible with American liberty.
NB: Erdogan knows and has named his enemy.
When you are dealing with a pedophile 6th century sand monkey who has created one of the largest hoaxes on humanity and has caused nothing but death and destruction, just exactly how do you insult him? Seems no matter how harsh the words, they are true.
Why not just ban Muzzies ?
Insult is that Abomination sitting on the HOH of the Jewish Temple site!
The Jews were there first. Our God gave it to them first. It's theirs.
The slimes built there intentionally as an INSULT!
The most hate-filled people in the world are these very radical muslims who hate everyone who is not like them. Their satanic faith is worth being on the very bottom of the ash heap of history.
I never really noticed that islam had a body of 57 nations.
The stupidity and evil of muslims always took my mind elsewhere and pushed such details aside.
Why don't all the mooslims protest by leaving intolerant America...yeah!!!
Yeah well I urinate in the direction of mecca and I am in disgust of this gutter "religion".
But still I have a higher opinion of this than I do of the U.N.
> Turkey heads the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, a body of 57 nations ...
Odd, how that 57 number keeps coming up in anything muzzie.
Mohammed was a child rapist.
It bears repeating Islam's sordid history. Every time they try to shut us up.
I'll tell you what - let's compromise and just declare Islam a crime against humanity.
I wonder if this is "offensive" or "an insult" that would have to be internationally banned:
John 14:6
Jesus answered, I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
On 911 my opinion was to kill them all and let God sort it out — my opinion has not changed.
But it will still be legal for them to insult you.
Now you Islamophobes go pay your taxes and have a nice day. :)

That was an editor's mistake (meaning mine). Reviewer had a setup for that line earlier in the review, but it was trimmed. Sorry for the perceived Fab Four slight -- definitely not intentional.
Wow - this is not Citizen Kane or a Fellini movie - its Star Trek.
All you have are characters we like, places to let our imagination roam, stories to make one think, cry or laugh .... if that's all it gives us, then it has perfectly met its goal. There are many reasons why so many millions of people love Star Trek for over 45 years now.

so you think Star Trek V was good?
you think all Star Trek movies should get a pass from critics???
Totally disagree with this review. Saw it tonight and it was great. It wasn't a socially important movie or anything, but does every movie need to be deep?
As usual I disagree with the critic about a scifi movie. It would seem that if I read your review and it is bad, I will find the movie to be very entertaining. It is not Gone with the wind, or citzen kane, but it is not supposed to be. These movies are meant to be entertaining, exciting, and fun and this one is all three.The acting was great, the effects well done, and the music and story well presented. I loved it and would give it 4 out of 5 stars, as there is always room for improvement. Hope we see 12 more.
Wow, what a cynical and sarcastic piece, and it also appears this critic is quite impressed with his many words. He was offended so deeply at so many levels by Into Darkness it is hard to understand what the point of the review is. Though I am clearly not as eloquent or artistically discerning as the critic, I loved the movie and will see it again, this time in 3D at the recommendation of a fellow teacher. Ah, we the uneducated masses are such dopes......

The Cougars did it without their leading scorer, DaVonte Lacy. Lacy, a Curtis High School product, had an appendix attack early Saturday morning and will miss the Pac-12 conference opener against Arizona Jan. 2.
"We just executed well tonight, with focus." Washington State Ken Bone said. "We were just trying to get through the game tonight without DaVonte, and I think the team came through."
D.J. Shelton recorded his second double-double of the season with 14 points and 13 rebounds for Washington State (7-5) who shot 88 percent from the field in the second half. Shelton completed his feat all in the first half.
"We came out and played aggressive from the start and even though they were a smaller team, we kept fighting for rebounds," Shelton said. The Cougars held a 44-30 advantage on the boards.
Washington State got out to an early 21-3 lead and never trailed in the game. It held Mississippi Valley State (3-8) to just one basket in the early run as they started the game 1-for-16 from the field. The Delta Devils went eleven minutes without a score in the first half.
"We just came out flat with no energy and we got so far behind it was difficult to recover," Mississippi Valley State Coach Chico Potts said. "We tried to get something going in the second half, but we turned the ball over and they capitalized."
Washington State continued the rout in the second half, outscoring MVSU 48-18 in the paint and scoring 22 points off 19 Mississippi Valley State turnovers.
The Cougars had their best shooting game of the season at 60 percent (33 of 55) from the field. The Delta Devils shot only 27 percent for the game and did not have a player in double figures.
Jeffrey Simmons had nine points to lead MVSU and James Currington chipped in with eight points and seven rebounds for Mississippi Valley State, which shot just 5 of 19 (26 percent) from beyond the arc.

In Havana, the past year has been marked by a parade of bold-faced names from the north — John Kerry reopening the United States Embassy; Andrew Cuomo bringing a delegation of American business leaders; celebrities ranging from Joe Torre, traveling on behalf of Major League Baseball to oversee an exhibition game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban national team, to Jimmy Buffett, said to be considering opening one of his Margaritaville restaurants there. All this culminated with a three-day trip in March by Barack Obama, the first American president to visit Cuba since Calvin Coolidge in 1928. But to those who know the city well, perhaps nothing said as much about the transformation of political relations between the United States and Cuba that began in December 2014 as a concert in the Tribuna Antiimperialista.

I loved this movie. I rented it on demand the same day as theatrical release. I thought it would be a goofy off the wall sort of comedy with Rob Corddry in it as the school principal. To my surprise this was a comedy that was very touching and heartwarming. I loved the developing relationship between Sam Rockwell (the girls coach) and the team. I was also very pleased to see a movie with a group of teenage girls that did not depict them as a bunch of catty little snots. Yes the team has their differences and cliquishness, but that is minimal compared to the bonding that goes on. Margo Martindale is great as the assistant coach. The actors in this movie are pitch perfect acting up to the limit of a real character but never crossing the line to where they are not believable. See this movie when you just want to feel good!
Kind of Garden State with Basketball, a sneaky lowball story of a loser
coach's shot of redemption with a girls' basketball team, the Lady
Chargers, that is both very funny and also kind of effective on the
drama front.
Everyone creates a low-fi vibe and just runs with it, small town values - we loved the comedy is in the small touches - and the timing - much of the comedy comes from the everyday conversations but just rings true.
If you like sports movies with a little more than just training and victory dances then this fits the bill well - it's well done at every step...
Just got back from seeing the premiere of The Winning Season at
Sundance 09' and couldn't be more thrilled to report back that we have
a winner.
The basic elements of the story are familiar; down in out coach finds a second chance with a bunch of scrubs and you know the rest. The Winning Season isn't groundbreakingly different from its ancestors, but just enough in all the right places to make this "dramedy" a very rewarding viewing. Audiences familiar with typical indie fare, will find that The Winning Season is indeed cut from an indie mold. The Winning Season does not gloss over the coach's failures, his abusiveness or the realities of the steep obstacles he faces. This is a good thing though, because being able to see the dark nature of the human condition makes the successes all that much more enjoyable. The strength of the The Winning Season is in its balances and ultimately the director/writers decision to allow humor and healing to be the driving force as the movie plays out. Far too often indie films allow their depressive themes to run rampant in what appears to be an effort to increase anti-depressant sales. There a lot of folks who think of any movie labeled as a "dramedy" to be fluff or mainstream box office disguising itself as an indie movie, but I would beg to differ. There is always room for reality and laughter to co-exist in a uniquely indie vision, and in the end movies should be allowed to make the viewer feel rewarded. The Winning Season aims to do that, and it's pretty much hit that mark.
On to the cast, Sam Rockwell (always underrated) is right on the money with his performance that never waivers from the lead characters self destructive nature as well as delivering such wonderfully dry humor that you keep thinking to yourself why isn't this guy getting more credit for being such a great actor. The young women in the film who make up the team are terrific and give such a sweetness to each of their roles, Emma Roberts in particular is fantastically clever in her role. Also, what a bonus to have Rob Coddry of Daily Show fame, as the goofy principle he just adds the right comedic touches to the scenes between he and Rockwell. Finally James Strouse, coming off two other well received Sundance films, ups his game here and brings a very strong effort. He should have very little problem getting more gigs with this type of quality output.
At least "The Winning Season" knows that the whole down-on-his-luck
coach and group of misfit girls basketball team who learn about life
and winning together type of story has been done before. They did
unfortunately follow the exact same formula, but with a hint of whimsy
and self-awareness, it's above average for the genre.
Emma Roberts and the other girls comprising the team actually come across as real teenage girls. I found them cute and funny. As a big fan of Sam Rockwell, he seems to be the reason why this film is pretty good. He's basically a drunken asshole, very unlikable, but he completely draws you in so there's a real emotional connection for the dramatic elements. And as he has demonstrated before, his physical comedy antics are perfect making the comedy scenes pretty funny.
"The Winning Season" has been done many times before, but here they managed to do it without being cheesy, while providing quality scenes of drama and comedy. If you like the genre, it is certainly worth a look.
Every element comes together very well in this film give you much more
than you'd expect from just another sports movie. Though it has a very
"bad news bears" feel to it, the coach has real issues, but you don't
really blame him for the problems he has. He ends up being more than
just a coach to the girls, but a mentor and friend.
The acting all blends together well, and make the characters seem real with a scrip written with today's teenagers in mind. Even the soundtrack and graphic elements are a great edition and gives really brings it together.
I could normally care less about girl's basketball, but this movie will help you see there is more to this sport than just basketball. The winning season will captivate you and make you care about the characters and wish it was based on a true story.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
I saw The Winning Season at Sundance. It was sweet and heartwarming. Sam Rockwell is the lead and he does a good job playing the Bad New Bears like coach. The winner here is Emma Roberts. I am admittedly a fan so I am biased. But I do wish there was more Emma in this film. That was my only disappointment. Otherwise it is a typical feel good film with all the big moments you would expect. Nicely done. I am not a big sports fan so maybe it didn't resonate with me as much as I would have liked. But in Sundance you never know what to expect when walking into a film. This was definitely an interesting film to play but I lean more towards the more realistic films in general. The films that are really great but never make it to my town. This one, I have a feeling will be seen by many.
In many ways, "The Winning Season" is a bit like "The Bad News Bears"
for the 21st century, though I certainly enjoyed this newer film much
more. I draw the comparison because a rather crude drunk (Sam Rockwell)
reluctantly takes over as coach of a rather bedraggled team--much like
Walter Matthau in "The Bad News Bears".
The film begins with Rockwell working in the kitchen at a greasy spoon. It seems his life has spiraled out of control and he is now being given a chance at coaching once again. But, he's a drunk and his relationship with his ex-wife and daughter are a mess...and he seems to have zero people or coaching skills. How the heck can he pull together a team consisting of only six girls to make a winning season?
This is an inappropriate film. It's fill of inappropriate language and I'd hate to think of either of my daughters ever having a coach like this guy. But, it's odd because you do like the guy in an odd way--he's not all bad. And, the dialog is quite clever and funny--and filled with expletives I think of it as a guilty pleasure--and a somewhat clichéd one as well. But, it's still likable and clever and well worth seeing if just for Rockwell's strange portrayal.
Terry (Rob Corddry) is the high school principal and he invites his old
classmate Bill Greaves (Sam Rockwell) back to coach girls' basketball.
He's a drunk busboy. He tries to reconnect to his daughter from his
failed marriage. He's still struggling with his past basketball dreams.
The girls' team isn't any good and has only 6 girls with 1 on crutches.
The school bus driver Donna (Margo Martindale) helps out.
It's an odd mix of Rockwell playing a slacker indie and the girls doing a fun underdog sports movie. It doesn't always mix well but there are enough good parts. The characters are likable. There is some fun with the girl drama clashing with Rockwell. Rooney Mara and Emma Roberts play two of the girls. Emma is the more compelling actress. It's reminiscent of 'Bad News Bears' with a drunken Walter Matthau.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
I watched The Winning Season on Netflix, and I didn't think it was
going to be all that good, but boy was I ever surprised. The Winning
Season is definitely near the top of my list for the best sports movie
I've ever seen.
The movie starts off with the main character (Bill, played by Sam Rockwell) cleaning tables at a restaurant. His friend (Terry, played by Rob Corddry) walks in and asks him if he would like to coach the girls varsity basketball team. Bill is surprised by the news and answers with a unsure yes. Bill then quits his job, and this is where his life begins to go into a spiral, of good and bad.
The Winning Season has a good flow with it's story and it never feels like they try to force something into it. Most of the scenes have a meaning and a message to people young and old. Some of the dialogue is iffy, but most of the time the dialogue works, mostly because of the way Sam Rockwell delivers it.
Sam Rockwell gives a great performance in this movie. He makes you believe that hes actually a divorced deadbeat father. As for all of the other performances, they're mostly sub par, especially the characters Damon and Molly. That's what you would expect though with young acting actors and actresses, especially with this movie being their first real big movie.
Overall, The Winning Season has a lot of heartfelt scenes which makes you actually care for some of the characters. If you're thinking about watching this with your teenage kid, then it'd be a perfect movie for you guys since it deals with a lot of different aspects and problems in teenagers lives like race, sexuality, and plenty of other things as well. The Winning Season is a gratifying movie, for all ages, you won't be disappointed.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
The Winning Season IS an enjoyable film because of some fine acting and
its' feel-good tone, but I feel a bit uneasy about how the film handled
some of the tough subject matter.
Sam Rockwell plays a once successful High School basketball coach who gets an offer from an old friend(now principal) to take a coaching job. When he finds out it's coaching girls varsity he is hesitant, but figures that it's better than bus-ing tables at the local five and dime.
Sam's interaction with the girls and the teams' progress is the strongest characteristic of this film. It isn't until the film dives headfirst into some pretty tough subject matter that it gets a bit derailed. Sam struggles with alcohol, and while the film approaches this subplot with good intentions - in the end it makes the viewer feel a bit uncomfortable about the whole situation. In 'Hoosiers' Dennis Hopper played a similar role - only his role was as an assistant, and he ended up listening to the final game from a hospital bed(a far more realistic fate). Here, Sam is just as bad of an alcoholic, but he interacts with the girls while drinking(on many occasions), and the film somehow tries to spin the whole thing into a positive(which quite honestly - does not work) The same goes for a sexual orientation subplot that never gains much steam anyway. The film has good intentions here as well, but doesn't ever really develop this subplot. It left me wondering why they even brought it up. Unfortunately, we don't get much closure on the lesbian/alcoholism themes.
The filmmakers here could have left out the sexual orientation stuff(I'm only saying that if you're going to include it - conclude it!).
Thankfully, the girls and Sam Rockwell are great in this movie. The moral is 'winning isn't everything'. I enjoyed the movie, but feel like it could have been even better. Marginally recommended, but don't be fooled as this film is definitely for the 13+ age bracket.
You'll like this if you liked: WHip It, Hoosiers, Wildcats, or Glory Road.
Late EDIT - Of Course some will respond negatively just because I didn't like the way the film tackled the tough subject matter. It doesn't make me homophobic or insensitive.

Kobe iffy for Sunday against Portland
Jackson said he wasn't "putting anything on him (Bryant) about Portland." Jackson also said he gave Bryant license to take whatever time he wants to refresh, even if that means "all the games off until the playoffs."
Don't count on that happening, as both Bryant and Jackson want the Lakers to get in some game flow entering the playoffs.
Jackson is aware that Bryant's only appearance in Minnesota this season is going unfulfilled, mentioning how he's sure fans were driving in to see him and the Lakers play.
"I already said, 'I'm sorry,' to a couple people in the hotel lobby," Jackson said.
Jackson said he did ask the Lakers' other All-Star, Pau Gasol, how he was feeling Friday after logging 43:31 in Denver on Thursday night; Jackson said Gasol told him he was fine and added: "Whatever it takes to win."
Jackson will try to use more of his bench anyway after the Lakers got into their hotel rooms just before 5 a.m. local time Friday after their flight from Denver.

Acapella Sphäron Excalibur Speaker
Audiophiles who want to impress their friendsand I seriously doubt there are any who don'twould be hard pressed to do better than a pair of Sphäron Excalibur speakers from German horn specialist Acapella. But you'd better have a pretty big room to comfortably house these beautiful beasts, which stand over seven feet tall and weigh 1364 pounds each.
The first thing most folks notice is the two large circular horns that measure 41 and 23 inches in diameter and reproduce the low-mid and midrange frequencies, respectively. At the throat of each horn is a modified but otherwise conventional speaker driver, not a compression driver as in other horn-loaded speakers.
The highs are handled by Acapella's so-called ion tweeter, mounted between the two larger horns. There's no diaphragm at the throat of its 6-inch horninstead, the current in a high-voltage arc is modulated by the audio signal, causing the nearby air molecules to vibrate in response. With virtually zero mass, the ion tweeter can reproduce frequencies as high as 100kHz, though in this case, it's limited to 30kHz.
A rectangular, sealed bass cabinet houses four 15-inch woofers that cover the low end of the spectrum, giving the entire speaker an overall frequency response from 20Hz to 30kHz (±7dB). That's a fairly wide tolerance, which makes me a bit suspicious, but I haven't heard these behemoths, so I can't say how it ultimately affects the perceived sound.
What would you pay to wow your friends when they see the Sphäron Excaliburs in your listening room? Get out the Titanium carda pair will add $455,000 to your balance. Can't afford that much? Too badyou'll just have to settle for something less impressive.

Mortgage calculator
How can a mortgage calculator help me?
If you are trying to find out how much money you can borrow for a mortgage or remortgage, an online calculator can be an excellent tool to give you an idea of what your options are. It is, however, always better to speak to an advisor who will be able to do a whole of market search for you and let you know exactly how much you can borrow and what the interest rates are that you could be paying. To use our online mortgage calculator, simply fill out the form on the right of the page and we will search our database of lenders for the best mortgage solution for you.

A mortgage calculator will do all this for you, the only thing you will have to do is supply your personal details, such as name and address, along with the type of mortgage you require such as a remortgage, buy to let mortgage, first time buyer mortgage, house purchase mortgage or equity release mortgage.

If you are a first time buyer the prospect of a mortgage can be a really daunting undertaking and with the vast amount of information available it can prove hard to come to the right decision, not only on which provider to go with but is the provider you might be considering really offering you the best deal. Many mortgages are spread over many years and it is vital to get it right.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Newport/Morehead City NC
An inland thermal trough and Bermuda high offshore pattern will
prevail through the week ahead. A weak cool front will approach
from the north Thursday, then remain stalled over the mid-
Atlantic region through Sunday.
As of 945 PM Sunday...No significant changes needed to previous
forecast for late evening update, just tweaked grids to reflect
current trends. Another warm and muggy night expected with
Bermuda high- type pattern. Mostly clear skies prevailing with
just some thin cirrus overnight. Min temps similar to last
night...73-75 inland and upper 70s to around 80 along the coast.
As of 330 PM Sunday...only change for Monday from today is models
are indicating low level thickness values a few meters lower which
results in max temps a degree or so cooler. Max temp forecast will
reflect this but will still see several hours of Heat Indices 105
to 109 for all but Ocracoke, and posted another Heat Advisory
accordingly. MAV and MET MOS dew point guidance continues to be
underdone for inland sections with forecast afternoon readings in
lower 70s. Both guidance products have been indicating this for
past 2 days and KPGV and KOCW dew points have remained around 75
both Saturday and Sunday. Went with persistence forecast.
Models continue to indicate no convective development again Monday
with subsidence inversion likely keeping area capped.
As of 330 PM Sunday...No significant changes were noted in the
24/12Z model suite which continues trend of long duration heat
wave through the extended with minimal precip chances. Will
highlight the dangerous heat indices through next weekend in the
HWO. An east- west oriented upper ridge with above climo
hts/thicknesses will be responsible for the above normal heat and
humidity for most of the eastern CONUS through late week and into
the weekend.
Monday Night through Tuesday Night...A strong upper level ridge
will build east from the southern Plains across the SE/Mid
Atlantic regions producing hot temperatures into the mid 90s and
afternoon heat index values aoa 105 degrees. Strong subsidence and
minimal short wave activity will preclude any convective activity
through Monday night. Weak short wave energy moving across just to
the north Tuesday along with increase in deep layer moisture with
PW values building to around 2 inches, would support a very low
chance for a shower or thunderstorm for the northern tier
generally north of hwy 264 Tue afternoon through evening.
Wednesday through Thursday...Med/long range model suite continue
in good agreement with upper ridge axis shifting slightly south
with some troughing developing into the Ohio valley and NE U.S.
This will allow the base of the westerlies and the track of mid
level shortwaves to brush NC for the mid week period, which will
lead to slightly better chances for diurnal showers and
thunderstorms for mainly interior zones and continued low chance
pops for the sct activity. Continued hot temps with dewpoints
well into the 70s will continue heat indices aoa 105 which is in
line with WPC values between 105-110 each afternoon.
Friday through Sunday...Long range model suite diverges somewhat
on evolution of the heat ridge this period, with the ECMWF/CMC
camp rebuilding the ridge across the southeast/mid atlantic and
the GFS slightly more suppressed. Have favored the former soln due
to more support from ensemble mean. This soln favors continued hot
and humid, and in fact the ECMWF suggests even hotter temps for
the Friday/Saturday period which will continue the long duration
heat wave with heat indices nearing 110 degrees by Friday. Precip
wise, have lowered pops to just slght chc each afternoon as
capping inversion will limit even diurnal convection. Temps will
continue mid to perhaps upper 90s for highs with very warm
overnight lows mid 70s interior to low 80s beaches. Sunday may
finally bring some relief in the oppressive heat/humidity if short
wave across the great lakes region can push a cool front towards E
NC which would bring a better chance of showers/storms to the
Short term /Through Monday/...
As of 945 PM Sun...VFR conditions currently with few/sct high
clouds. Will trend with persistence given little/no change to
airmass. Some patchy sub-VFR fog will be possible overnight with
mostly clear skies and light winds, with best chances at OAJ,
similar to this morning. Sct diurnal cu expected to develop again
Monday with light SW winds.
Long Term /Monday night through Friday/...
As of 330 PM Sunday...Mainly VFR conditions are expected through
the long term as strong mid level ridging persists across the
region with only minimal convective activity expected mainly
during the afternoon/evening for Wed/Thur. With any storm,
conditions will tempo drop to sub VFR. May see patchy BR each
night as humidity vals will be high and winds light.
Short Term /Through Monday/...
As of 945 PM Sunday...Latest obs show S/SW winds 10-15 knots with
gusts to 20 knots across the outer central and northern
waters...with seas 1-3 feet. Persistence forecast during period
with little change in surface pressure pattern indicated.
Southwest winds will continue cycle of speeds around 15 KT this
evening, lowering to around 10 KT overnight into Monday morning,
then increasing again Monday afternoon. Seas 1-3 feet through
Monday morning, increasing to 2-3 feet Monday afternoon.
Long Term /Monday night through Friday/...
As of 330 PM Sunday...The models continue to indicate typical
Bermuda high/inland thermal trough pattern through the period,
resulting in persistent SW flow around 15 KT across the waters.
Winds may pick up to up to 20 KT during the late afternoon and
evening hours as the thermal land/sea gradient maximizes. A weak
cold front may approach the northern waters late Wed into Thur
which will decrease the winds. The front will quickly weaken
though with SW winds 15 KT re-developing by Friday as the thermal
gradient increases again. Seas will be 2-3 feet through the period
with some 4 ft sets across outer waters for late afternoon/evening
period Tue coinciding with the gustier SW winds.
NC...Heat Advisory from 1 PM to 8 PM EDT Monday for NCZ029-044>047-

It was a game day so there was an assortment of fans, tourists and locals in there but overall, great staff and selection of beers. The rooftop is a good spot to get away from it all. Plenty of TV's and even had a live band on the first floor. Ideal for a one stop shop on a Saturday night
Good three level bar with different entertainment on each sometimes for each night.
Roof top is the best and sometimes the music is horrible but they will change it. Everyone is chilling up top they don't need loud plant killing music. Lol.
The service is amazing bartenders are cool food is bar good.
Make sure you ask for Dj Phil...
This place has three floors to give you the experience you desire. First floor often has a band. Second floor is quieter with lots of tables for conversation. The roof offers a great view of the square and downtown. Beer is priced well and the service is good.
This was an unexpected stop on my road trip. My girlfriend and I stopped there on a Sunday night. This bar has three levels. On the first floor there is a full bar and a live band performed that evening. The third floor is a rooftop bar that has a very limited selection. On Sundays there is an open mic...
The crowd isn't really that terrible to deal with, but the cigarette smoke is out of control. If you don't have a headache while you are there from it, you will soon catch one from the embedded smell from your clothes and skin. Kind of gross and enough to make me not want to go back or recommend.
This pub has a very good vibe but there is smoking on the first floor. We didn't go to the second floor but perhaps we should have. We had a few beers and the bartenders were nice. The music was good and the crowd was friendly. This pub would be a lot better without the smoke. It was by far...
Read about Preservation Pub on TripAdvisor so while in Knoxville we decided to check it out. First floor allows smoking (gross), second floor does not, third floor is rooftop (closed for the season). We paid the $5 cover and headed to the second floor (no smoking) but the music was horrible. So we headed back to the first floor (smoking...
We visited the pub not really knowing what to expect. The advertised 'Comedy Night' wasn't that well known - we'd asked at our hotel, and in another bar we visited and no one knew about it. So ever the intrepid explorers we to the risk and went upstairs.
We were not disappointed. From our first encounter with the barkeeper -...
Some of the best pizza I have ever had. The rooftop is fabulous when weather permits. When it is hot outside they have misting fans on the rooftop. Love the view over Market Square.
Love the staff, atmosphere and beer. Food isn't that great. I guess at 12am and after 6 or 7 beers it's okay. Its definitely my favorite place to go downtown.
