I coulda been a contender, I coulda been somebody... bother, dropped another one. Was Andy watching? Oww, that hurt. Hope Andy wasn't watching. Got 'im... Andy, Andy over here.
Reality long since determined I would never make any sort of grade as a cricketer – willing but unfortunately unable. That doesn't take away the man-child desire to impress the most important grown-up in English cricket, the man who took England to the top of the world. We gather at The Oval, a handful of competition winners and two journalists, for an hour's coaching masterclass from Andy Flower and Tom, one of Surrey's coaches, and suddenly nine men and one woman who have little to offer but enthusiasm and advancing years are gambolling around the indoor nets like 10 wannabe Jonty Rhodes.
The indoor school is laid out with mats, cones and legless bowling machines. "What do you want to get out of this session?" asks Flower. I'd be happy with self-respect intact, but Flower is not a man for low expectations. The machine growls, spits a ball on to a rutted ramp and it flies straight at me. Down it goes. "Well tried," says Tom and feeds the machine again. Same result. Then one sticks, and another.
"Get low," says Flower before we start the next exercise, diving on to mats to try and catch his throws. This is more like it – visions of glory, with a soft landing. Flower explains how at the highest level players learn to use one hand to catch the ball and the other to break their fall when diving. Soon all shapes and sizes are flying through the air to barks of encouragement from Flower. He has a good word about everyone and everyone glows to receive it. "Catch!" he says and it's worth every bit of pain in my ankle in the days since.Reuse content

text: Zimbabwe caps salaries for "fat cat" state executives Southern Africa by admin Last Updated: Wed, 19 Mar 2014 09:42:07 GMT 0 Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe. PHOTO: Help Zimbabwe This is in a bid to ease public anger over "fat cat" executive salaries, the country's finance minister said on Wednesday. Finance Minister Patrick Chinamasa said Mugabe's cabinet on Tuesday agreed to cap the salary and perks for managers of government-owned entities and city council bosses at a total of 72,000 dollars a year. (READ MORE: Zimbabwe government workers reject double-digit pay rises) That would be a huge cut for some executives, who were raking in up to half a million a year. Newspaper accounts of their pay had sparked outrage in cash-strapped and deeply impoverished Zimbabwe, where the average government employee makes 370 dollars a month. "In the public eye, these exorbitant salaries and allowances are not only corrupt but also obscene," Chinamasa said in a statement. "The public's outrage is justified." A list of salaries of all 180 state-owned firms and city and town councils provided by Chinamasa showed many managers were evading tax by taking lower basic pay but exorbitant benefits, which were not taxed. (READ MORE: Zimbabwe economy to grow 4.2% in 2014: World Bank) A health insurer that covers government employees was paying its chief executive a basic monthly salary of 230,000 dollars and monthly benefits of 305,499 dollars. The chairman of a border town in western Zimbabwe got a basic salary of 1,100 dollars a month but about 16,000 dollars a month in benefits, which were not taxed. Mugabe's ruling ZANU-PF and the opposition Movement for Democratic Change have been calling for the worst offenders to be dismissed and arrested for abusing public funds, in a rare show of political unity. (WATCH VIDEO: Zimbabwe's central bank seeks to rein in interest rates) However, Zimbabwe is ranked as one of the most corrupt countries in the world. Local media reports routinely report that state-owned companies are plagued by corruption, including flouting tender procedures to hand contracts to related parties. There are fears that managers will top up their pay with graft.

Location: Global Change and Photosynthesis Research2012 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416):
Identify oil and meal traits and the genes that influence those traits to improve the quality and value of U.S. soybeans.
1b. Approach (from AD-416):
The proposed studies will build on our observation that pod position along the main stem affects seed composition (protein:oil content) and seed quality (fatty acid composition of the oil and relative content of sulfur-containing amino acids in protein) and that these differences vary among soybean varieties. We will monitor seed fill duration (SFD) as a function of stem position in relation to seed composition. A second parallel but independent approach will be to screen the USDA Soybean Germplasm Collection to identify higher-oil germplasm that also contains adequate protein (to produce a 48% meal) and with high relative S-content. Accessions identified will be used for crosses to generate segregating populations to select genotypes that have increased seed quality. Digestibility and feed efficiency will be examined in chicken feeding experiments conducted in collaboration with colleagues at the University of Illinois.
3. Progress Report:
We investigated two specific conditions that are known to affect seed composition as possible factors contributing to the canopy position effects. The first was seed fill duration (SFD). It is generally thought that protein begins to accumulate before oil and therefore the longer the period of seed filling, the greater the content of oil. Consequently, we wondered whether seeds at the bottom of the canopy fill over a longer period that those at the top of the canopy. That was indeed observed with all ten genotypes being studied, and the difference in SFD from top to bottom ranged from 4 to 8 days. Qualitatively these results are consistent with the canopy position effects on composition but quantitatively cannot explain the differences among genotypes. One factor that may be contributing to this disparity is pod temperature, which one would assume would be equal among genotypes and simply a function of ambient temperature, but recent results suggest that may not be the case. Future studies will follow up the observation that under similar environmental conditions, pod temperatures can vary substantially among genotypes (up to 2°C).

East Valley community center thankful for help after fire
CHANDLER — A Valley group is recovering from a fire at its facility in Chandler.
On Christmas Eve, an electrical fire started in a fish tank at the East Valley Jewish Community Center, leaving the facility with plenty of damage.
"That damage caused us to lose the immediate use of eight classrooms, seven offices, our kitchen and a multipurpose room," said executive director Steve Tepper.
The Chandler Fire Department said the blaze was "an electrical fire of an unsuspicious nature."
Tepper said he's amazed by the outpouring of support the EVJCC has received from the community. Both the Chandler Fire and Police departments have delivered boxes of toys to replace those lost in the fire. People of all faiths and walks of life have been dropping off donations.
Tepper said what was lost in the fire isn't the real story.
"It really has become, for us, a story about what we do have," said Tepper. "The support of a community that views us as an important institution and is willing to fight to try to help keep us open and keep these kids in their classroom and learning, being supported, and continuing their development. It's been, for me, awe-inspiring to be a part of."
But the EVJCC could still use help.
"At this stage, if people are able to donate, cash donations or gift cards (from stores such as Wal-Mart, Costco, or a similar store) are really, really helpful to us," said Tepper.
The East Valley Jewish Community Center is located at 908 N. Alma School Road in Chandler, near the intersection of Alma School and Ray roads. The telephone number is (480) 897-0588.

Face it: Most financial gifts are as appealing as discount coupons for gym socks. But not all financial gifts have to be boring. In fact, with a little effort, you can find some gifts that your loved ones will appreciate — and that may appreciate in value, too.
First, to be clear: Savings Bonds, particularly I-bonds, really are fine gifts.
An I-bond currently yields 6.73%; your returns are adjusted regularly for inflation; and interest is free from state and local taxes.
Also, you can buy an I-bond for just $50 in certificate form, and $25 in electronic form through Treasury Direct (www.treasurydirect.gov).
But let's say you're looking for a financial gift that's a bit more festive. To do that, you have to enter the world of collectibles. Let's start with toys.
A good collectible toy is something that people played with in their childhood. But it also has to be old enough that those people now have $500 to shell out for, say, a Barbie doll.
Consider Voltron, which, as you may remember, made its television debut as Defender of the Universe in 1984. As we all know, Voltron consisted of five fierce robot lions that somehow fit together into a big, um, Voltron.
At any rate, Voltron is a trendy collectible, says Tom Bartsch, editor of Toy Shop, a magazine for toy collectors. Some older, in-the-box Voltron items are fetching $200 to $250. Presumably, Voltron fans are entering their 30s and may be able to push up prices further.
Voltron doesn't have the lion's share of the toy market. Mutant Ninja Turtles and Transformers are also in big demand, Bartsch says. And baby boomers, those born from 1946 to 1964, have their eye on Popeye, who turned 75 last year. Really ancient mariner memorabilia can fetch more than $750.
When you're buying collectible toys, they should be in their original packaging. The toys that carry the most value are articulated — their arms, legs or flippers move — and have some play value, Bartsch says.
In short, they should be fun to play with, but no one should have actually played with them.
If you're thinking of storing something away for when Junior reaches his peak earnings age, consider the boss of Bikini Bottom, Sponge Bob SquarePants, Bartsch says. Or try characters from Adult Swim, such as the fighting foodstuff of Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
Coins are less fun gifts, but they can be nice gifts. One gift that's gaining currency is the official U.S. mint proof set for the year in which a person was born.
Proof coins have a special finish that's brighter than uncirculated coins. George Cuhaj, editor of Standard Catalog of World Coins, a price guide, says that recent proof sets haven't seen great price appreciation in the past 10 to 20 years, although pre-1955 sets have.
An alternative: A 1-ounce gold or silver coin. The 2005 silver proof coin costs $27.95 through the Mint's website: www.usmint.gov. You can buy uncirculated silver 1-ounce coins, which don't have the proof finish, for about $11 through local coin dealers.
Or consider antique stock certificates. The scandal-minded can get an Enron stock certificate for $29.95 at scripophily.net, which is $29.95 more than it's worth on the stock exchange. Nevertheless, it's a conversation piece, particularly since it has the crooked "E" logo. (For ironic Enron memorabilia, though, it's hard to beat the coffee mugs inscribed with the Enron "Ask Why," marketing slogan. They sometimes turn up on eBay, the online auctioneer.)
Some stock certificates are valuable because of the signatures on them. For example, a company called Bayouboys Limited issued a stock certificate signed by Truman Capote, author of In Cold Blood and subject of the recent movie Capote. You can buy the certificate for $595 on scripophily.net.
If that's too rich for your blood, look for stocks related to a person's interests, says Bob Kerstein, president of scripophily.net. For example, he sells a package of certificates from the four railroads in Monopoly — Cleveland Short Line, Pennsylvania, Reading and, Baltimore and Ohio railroads — for $39.95.
Of course, there's no guarantee that any of these will make money. For that, you'll need a Savings Bond. But combining the two could be good for fun and profit — and what's wrong with that?

More Millennial Angst
Oh, God. Christmas is upon us, and this year, hard on its heels, are the Y2K parties. Some of us, who already find an ordinary New Year's Eve to be entirely too much pressure, are just glad that, in technical terms, we have a whole year before the real turn of the millennium -- a whole year in which to get a huge raise (hint! hint!), book a trip to, well, Bali would be nice, find true love, correct at least the more troubling of our character flaws, and finally stop biting our nails.
Some of us. Not necessarily Dog Bites.
Anyway, it's nice the way you get second chances, at least up to the point when you die. Meanwhile, though, San Francisco's Y2K preparedness efforts have reportedly been successful, but Dog Bites, preferring not to take any chances, has decided to spend the hours of the rollover in the city's Y2K response center. "Make sure you bring whatever you'll need to be comfortable for a while," Chris Hayashi, of the Y2K Program Management Office, told us. (We thought guiltily of the box of granola bars in our earthquake-slash-Y2K kit, which we'd already broken into under the dire circumstance of having forgotten to pick up a loaf of bread.)
The city believes all critical systems will function: The 911 system has been thoroughly tested, water will flow, all hurlable objects have been removed from the Embarcadero, the Police and Fire departments will be on full alert, hospital equipment may be relied upon to work, and the electricity is someone else's problem, which is about as good as it gets in government. "The Y2K PMO is one of the best things ever to happen to the city," says Hayashi. "We've identified all our mission-critical systems, and all the departments now have contingency plans. They wouldn't have had that without going through this process."
We believe we may say without irony that, here in San Francisco, this is a good thing.
72 Degrees in Your Head
Without knowing the outcome of the mayoral race, we're unsure whom we should be sucking up to, which is frustrating. So we think we'll bash the dot-coms instead; it's hard to go wrong with that subject, and besides, it has come to our attention that there may be a significant exception to our previously stated rule that it takes 10 years to become a San Franciscan.
If you are a dot-com, you may never qualify.
Our apologies to anyone we've disappointed. Our original positing of a decade-long waiting period did, however, presume a temporary San Francisco resident's participation in at least some facets of the city's public life. For instance, while it would not be necessary to volunteer on a mayoral campaign, to picket proposed Rite Aid sites, or to join, say, Rescue Muni, we assumed it would be merely standard to vote, to read one of the local dailies, and to occasionally patronize the Farmers' Market.
But many of our more virtual citizens, we have discovered, travel in startlingly small orbits. In fact, they seem to consider interaction with San Francisco itself as a kind of engineering flaw in their daily existences -- something, like drag, to be minimized wherever possible in the interests of efficiency. No, they don't read either local daily. They read the Wall Street Journal, and sometimes a few things in the business section of the San Jose Mercury News. They venture outdoors to shop, occasionally -- after all, online stores still haven't made the Macy's menswear department entirely obsolete -- but dislike aimless strolling and seem worried by the vast, unprotected skies of, say, Marin. (Or, as a friend of Dog Bites' once remarked of one of Dog Bites' male acquaintances: "He's like a shopping cart -- you know, he doesn't really go off the sidewalk.")
Of course, we speak here of actual techies. We leave the problem of dissecting the lifestyles of the software marketing gals and business-to-business sales guys -- for whom the world, since college ended one or eight years ago, has been more or less one continuous kegger -- to a more dedicated anthropologist; our own capacity for finding humor in the violent emesis of tequila, particularly into a Union Street gutter, has long since been exhausted.
No, here we consider the Dockers-wearing, laptop-tapping, Circadia-frequenting, Land Cruiser-driving, self-regarding CTO or something of a company with a name like eBizTech.com, who has found in San Francisco a friendly business climate and an address with a certain cachet. Because, apart from its convenient proximity to Sand Hill Road, San Francisco is, you know, really bohemian, and after all, the digital revolution is, like, a revolution.
Oddly enough, Dog Bites, through a confluence of circumstances that did not, unfortunately, result in our making any money, was a witness to part of the beginnings of the digital revolution, or at least what was for a time its own little Pravda.
Drifting through the Wired offices in the evening, after everyone had gone home -- and no, we did not work there -- we used to marvel internally at the Muppet Laboratories banality of the place, the sense that some senior editorial staffer could, while brushing his teeth in the morning, invent tomorrow today, come to work, issue a terse set of commands to his underlings, and have it on the newsstands by the end of next week. Except, of course, the tomorrow would consist of some $1,200 gadget that required four "D" cell batteries and a droning 4,500-word essay arguing that government was obsolete.
Now that Wired itself is, well, totally 1995, it seems odd that a bunch of magazine-world F-listers who'd taken Alvin Toffler a little too much to heart could have made it socially desirable to be an asshole. Actually, crediting them even with that much influence seems generous. Nevertheless, the magazine's sublibertarian ethos has diffused through the high-tech world from which it supposedly drew its readers. It's just part of the atmosphere now, a whole set of unexamined assumptions that apparently boil down to the idea that money is the way you keep score in a meritocracy -- and that we live in a meritocracy. (If you believe Dog Bites is wrong, by all means write us long, angry letters; lately we've been feeling totally neglected.)
It has been pointed out, by many who are unarguably our intellectual superiors, that at one time privilege was felt to confer obligation on its possessors. Noblesse oblige, we believe the phrase was. In other words, if you had money, you weren't supposed to use it to make others miserable. But in San Francisco these days, we see a lot of people being made miserable. The dot-coms, who do not participate in civic politics -- they gave at the office, OK? -- have washed their hands of the situation. After all, they just bought the lofts; they didn't build them. (For people who ostensibly believe in the free market, they are remarkably cavalier about their own parts in the law of supply and demand, we've noticed.) They see themselves as asking very little of the city beyond a T1 line and a reliable pizza delivery service, and are, therefore, righteously miffed when someone suggests they might actually owe the place something, like, say, school taxes. Anyway, government is obsolete, right?
Dog Bites must raise an eyebrow when someone suggests that the dot-coms will, like every other group of immigrants to these charmed and golden shores, eventually become part of the San Francisco scene: No, they won't. Because first they would have to want to be part of it. And that would take time away from their important work developing new user interfaces for e-commerce applications, or whatever. Doubtless, of course, Darwinian selection, perhaps in the form of repetitive strain injuries, will force a few to drop out of their currently chosen lifestyle; some may even take up organic gardening, transit activism, or experimental filmmaking. And then they will be just as cranky and provincial as the rest of us, and life will go on.
So relax. The mayoral race is not, as even the wire services have been calling it, "a battle for San Francisco's soul." The dot-coms don't want the city's soul. Like gold-digging potential boyfriends -- a breed whose existence was recently lamented by another Dog Bites acquaintance -- they only want stock options. When there aren't any, they move on. Go ahead and call us psychic, but we think pretty soon a lot of them will move on to Oakland, where cheap, aging downtown office stock fairly begs for acreages of Pergo laminate flooring, brushed aluminum office chairs, and armies of fresh-faced employees living four to a two- bedroom apartment in Grand Lake, and the very word "gentrification" makes the city government weak at the knees with longing.
We can see it all now, really.
Confidential to S.S.: You must realize that K.K. (N.M.) means nothing to us! Nothing! Both those lunches were strictly business. We swear! Check with J.M. if you don't believe us! You're our everything, S.S.! Not since A.E. broke our heart have we felt this way! And even if K.K. (N.M.) was your frat brother, we don't see why that matters! Will you let a misplaced loyalty forever divide us? It must not, it cannot be. Tu es toujours à notre coeur, cherie! Au revoir!

Author Biography - Georges Feydeau
Georges Feydeau (1862-1921) is best known for his enduring farces, such as 'A Flea in her Ear', yet he wrote over 20 monologues for actors to perform at charity concerts and in fashionable drawing rooms. Sir Peter Hall is one of the greatest theatre, film and opere directors of our time. At the age of 29 he founded the Royal Shakespeare Company. In 1973 he became Director of the National Theatre and opened the new theatres on the South Bank. He later founded the Peter Hall Company, producing many West End and Broadway successes. He has directed at many international opera houses, including Glyndebourne, the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, the Metropolitan opera and Bayreuth. To date he has directed over two hundred productions, including the world premiere in English of Samuel Beckett's Waiting or Godot, and the premieres of most of Harold Pinter's plays.

We would've thought we had heard the last of Dear White People, a movie which followed black college students and their bouts with racism that eventually ended in a college riot, however, thanks to Netflix, they will be video streaming an upcoming series based on the movie. One would think Netflix would be praised and applauded for streaming such a racially conscious series, but not so; Ever since Netflix dropped the trailer, they've received a lot of backlash because of it.

When asked by host Jake Tapper to walk him through the events of Trump's first month in office, reporter Tom Foreman joked that "it's more like staggering than walking cause it's quite an experience." He poked fun at the fledgling administration's trip ups and hammered it with the accomplishments of past administrations.

During the past several days, people in the "mainstream media" have taken advantage of every opportunity to criticize President Donald Trump, his staff, or even people in his family. The latest example of this tactic came on Wednesday's edition of Morning Joe on MSNBC, when co-host Mika Brzezinski declared that White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway would never be a guest on the program "as long as I'm on it" because "I don't believe in 'fake news' for information that is not true.

Searches at the Associated Press, the New York Times and the Washington Post for stories in English on "monarca," the Spanish term for the monarch butterfly, currently come up empty. (There is a Post story in Spanish originating with the Associated Press, but it's about a drop in the number of those butterflies present in Mexico.) This absence isn't due to a lack of interest in the butterfly. It's because there's a lack of interest in telling the American people about a concerted effort by Mexico, codenamed Monarca, to slow or halt deportations of its citizens here in the U.S. illegally to a crawl by funding efforts to clog the U.S. court system to the point where it "break(s) down."

text: 000 FXUS64 KHGX 200859 AFDHGX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX 259 AM CST Mon Feb 20 2017 .DISCUSSION... At 230 AM, a line of showers and thunderstorms extended north to south across the CWA from Crockett to Edna. The line will continue to move slowly east while individual storms will continue to move north northeast. At 07z, a a weak meso-high and associated cold pool and outflow extended from about Dallas to La Grange. The northern end of the line seems to be pushing east a bit faster than the southern end of the line. 00z 850 mb analysis shows dew pts between 10-11 degrees over North Texas and between 5 and 9 degrees further south but 850 mb winds were from the south at 25-35 knots so moisture levels expected to continue to increase this morning. A weak 850 mb trough was located over SW TX. The best 700 mb moisture was also located over N TX with a weak trough over W TX. 300 mb winds show a diffluent pattern over E TX with a deep trough over the 4 corners extending south into northern Mexico. 00z models suggests that 300 mb winds will become even more diffluent by 12z and PW values will increase to 1.70-1.80 inches. Instability is weaker over E-SE TX and the window for severe weather appears to be closing. The primary hazard this morning will be heavy rain. Will maintain the Flash Flood Watch but not sure it will be needed after 18z. Instability is weaker over E-SE TX and the window for severe weather appears to be closing. The primary hazard this morning will be heavy rain. SE TX will lie on the east side of the upper trough through this evening so periods of light rain will persist this afternoon but heavy rain is not expected after 18z. The upper level trough axis will push east of the region tonight and drier weather is expected Tuesday. A weak 500 mb ridge amplifies slightly over Texas Wed/Thu so continued dry weather is expected with unseasonably warm temperatures. Another upper level trough will move across the central Rockies and surface low pressure will develop in the lee of the Rockies. The sfc low will move east and drag a cold front across the area Friday afternoon. Slightly cooler temperatures expected for Saturday as high pressure moves into the southern plains. Onshore winds resume Saturday night as the surface high moves east of the region. Warm air advection will persist on Sunday and patchy light rain will accompany the warmer temepratures. 43 && .MARINE... Caution conditions were diminishing slightly. However, inflow into the storms over the inland areas will increase the winds over the next 3 hours or so. Because of this, will keep the SCEC in place for the Gulf waters through 12Z. Otherwise, models were continuing to show thunderstorms developing over Matagorda Bay and the Gulf waters west of Freeport this morning. The storms should then begin affecting Galveston Bay and areas east of Freeport late this morning into early this afternoon. Impacts expected are strong winds.

In the old days, smoking used to be prescribed by doctors because it gave more stamina to human's body. But, nowadays we all know that smoking is harmful to our body and we get no benefits from it. Actually, smoking is considered an addiction to smokers that has been programmed into their consciousness.
Smokers know everything about smoking and its damages that it causes to their body, but still they are stuck to that habit-and actually it's not their fault. These cancerous sticks are designed to tuck you in and keep you stuck. To be able to quit smoking, smokers need to set a plan and rewire their brain. This is what happens after you stop smoking:
20 Minutes
After 20 minutes of not smoking, your heart rate and blood pressure would go back to normal. Through this time the organism will start to relieve itself from nicotine, and you will feel a need for another cigarette. But, really TRY and be persistent.
8 Hours
When tobacco is burning you breathe in carbon monoxide and this harmful substance bonds with the cells of your body. This prevents the oxygen to bond with your cells, and all that causes cardiovascular diseases.
So, if you cut the level of monoxide carbon on half by not smoking for 8 hours, you will bring back to normal your oxygen level and lower the risk of heart attack.
48 Hours
Usually smokers are less susceptible to the sense of smell and taste. If you do not lit a cigarette for 48h, those senses will be regained and would be able to revitalize and re-grow your cells, and at the end you will be able to taste your food better.
Actually, after 48h of not smoking, your body will be free of nicotine and will demand another cigarette and you will feel nauseous. But, do not surrender to the temptation os smoking another cigarette, because it will get better and better with time.
72 Hours
When you are strong enough to beat the temptation of smoking another cigarette for 72h, then let me say that your respiratory system will get into normal and you will start to breathe easier.
Continue with this confidence, and you will lower the heart attack risk and kidney failure in a long term time span.
2 Weeks
Results show that cough is associated with how long you have been smoking. When people stop smoking for few weeks, then their lungs start to clean themselves and throw out all the nicotine that has been consumed for a long time.
As a result, you will start to feel healthier and be more physically active and not getting short of breath.
3 to 9 Months
Your skin will regain its glow and vitality. You will feel it soft again, since the circulation of the blood will increase when you get rid of the nicotine in your body. Less circulation brings about pale, dry, and crumbly skin. Your skin will regain its elasticity since it will produce more collagen and you will get wrinkles much later.
When you haven't been smoking for few months, the blood circulation will fasten and that will help your body get rid of nicotine. Also, your skin will start to feel soft again, it will start to regain its vitality and glow and you will get wrinkles much later due to skin increased collagen production.
1 to 5 Years
If you quit smoking for 1-5 years you will lower heart diseases risk by half. Also, signs of a smoker will be gone too, like yellow fingers and yellow smoker teeth.
Risk from different types of cancer , lung cancer, kidney, pancreas, bladder, mouth cancer will be lowered for 50%, when you stop smoking for five years.
10 to 15 Years
After 15 years of not smoking, you will thank yourself that you stopped and hopefully your need to smoke has dissipated. The chances of a heart diseases and cancer will be equal to the chances of a not smoker. The health consequences that come with smoking will no longer exist and your life expectancy will be extended.
Good luck; you can do it!

Casual greek food at cheap prices. Always a line up down the block. Nothing on the menu over $12.
Amazing food, I always get the lamb platter it's phenomenal. Servers are wonderful and prices are out of this world. Love it! Worth the wait in line, goes by quickly anyways.
The food comes out very quickly so if you're really hungry and need a goo place to fill up you won't have to wait longer than 10 minutes for sure.
I am not Greek (3rd generation Canadian) and I love this place. The lentil, the roast lamb (very expensive though), the sauces and the bread are all top notch and filling. Sometimes I think I want to order another lamb plate. I bring my wife here too but it is a little too expensive so mostly friends meeting and special occasions not to mention because of the fanatstic meat and marination they are always busy so beware.
Im really suprised at the reviews on here! At the weekend, 6 of us walked in off the street, were seated straight away. Food came out quickly, was extremly tasty and the service was great - I didnt catch the waiters name but he was very helpful and attentive! Definatly going back again
We have been satisfied with Stephos for many years, but as of today we will no longer recommend this place to our worst enemy. The calamari was dry and tasted like cardboard dipped in garlic and grease. The youvetski had the consistancy and taste of over spiced dog food. The salads looked as if a 5 year old prepared them. The pita was stale. It was all horrible. We couldn't eat anything without feeling like vomiting, so we complained.
This is the conversation we had with the 20 something year old "son of the owner" who was running the place: US: this food is aweful do you think we can have something better or our money back? SON: it (the food) looks fine, this is the way we always cook it. US: so you're saying this is your best work? ...something you're proud of? SON: look; if you don't like the food then I suggest you don't order it again. US: we don't think anyone would like this and it is NOT how you always cook it. SON: I will not give your money back and I will not give you another option. US: can we at least have the same order but cooked a little better?
The son eventually agreed to re serve the same order. We are positive that he just reheated the same crappy food. Even crappy food from a fast food hamburger joint would have been better than this ^%#$#.
Stepho's you had your moment of greatness, now it's time to stop ripping people off.
The food at Stephos isn't bad. Although the calamari can be a hit or miss, the lamb is always very tender and never gamy.
Service: Servers are busy here, sometimes it takes a few minutes for them to get to you. However, contrary to (ignorant) hahaha's review (who clearly has never worked in a restaurant) the bussers have different tasks to do than servers, so in that own sense, they DO know what they are doing.
Value: You can't beat Stephos value! The greek restaurants around stephos are empty in comparison.
Ambiance: It is typical of most greek restaurants, but more busy and noisy. Not a place to linger around.
I've been to stephos a few times now and I've always ordered the lamb, can't go wrong with it. Portions are huge and I never finish so I save half for the next days' lunch. The only downfall i could think of is the lineup....geez, usually takes 1 hr, there was one time where i waited 30 mins but that's rare. I also got tired of waiting one time and went a few stores down to the other greek restaurant (i heard it's the same own) but food is about $1 more but i think it's ok, compared to having to wait 1 hr just to get a table. Service is alright, never had a problem. Although i was sitting outside the patio area and the restaurant next to them had their back door open with a sign that says (come in we're C*NTS)....not very appropriate but I guess it's not really stepho's fault!
I don't mind waiting for 30mins but any longer is insulting and disrespectful. That's disappointing. All the while many people going in for take out. Doesn't make sense because it just makes the waiting longer for those of us that don't live in the area and come especially to enjoy. Makes for lousy ambiance once you get in too. People waiting to pick up. . Amazing service considering that atmosphere. I commend the staff! Suggestion.....a separate hole in the wall and kitchen for pick up only. The food is good. If I go again it will have to be well planned so as not to go during busy time. Dinner should be relaxing.
Not going to go on and on about Stepho's, but one thing I have to say is that the portion size just blew me away! Considering where it's located, the prices are very very reasonable for the amount of food you get, and the service is prompt and friendly. Sure the food isn't 5 star gourmet, but I enjoyed it enough to pack what I couldn't finish and that should say a lot. The location is central and now I know why people line up out the door and down the block to get in on the weekend evenings!
Food: The rice is always oily but overall the food is delicious!
Service: Solid
Ambiance: The restaurant is quite small and stuffy. Every time you come out of the restaurant, you smell =p
*** As most people already know there are always long line ups outside of the restaurant. It is the most popular Greek restaurant in Vancouver! The prices are cheap and they offer huge portions.
I agree with most reviews about food and service. The food is good service is solid but the atmosphere is to frantic and rushed. Small tables for two make me feel like I'm sitting in the hallway and the washroom is N-A-S-T-Y. It's a good place if you're hungry and want to have a quick bite, like at the fast food restaurant. If you want to have romantic dinner or anything like that - not so much.
Stepho's guys if you're reading this please renovate and regularly clean your bathroom. You're doing well - you can afford it.
I've been living in Vancouver for about a year, and have been hearing about Stepho. I only got around to eat there about two weeks ago. It was awesome that three days later, we went back.
We ordered the Lamb Chop, the Lamb Souvlaki, the Greek Lasagna, and the Pita Bread. Everything was great, even the rice was so good. The Lamb Chop is my favorite, it was soft, but did not feel overcooked. The second time around, we ordered the Lamb Chop again, and while it tasted as soft, the portion was somehow a bit smaller, perhaps cause the bone was bigger. But either way, both times, we were really happy with the food.
The service was fair. I understand because there were a lot of people, it was hard to be really attentive. But the servers were as attentive as they could be. We weren't waiting too long for the food or for any other thing we asked. The restaurant, both times we went there, was packed! It was a bit noisy, but that was to be expected, given the little space and the fact that they also play music. The music's really nice, I must say. The other slightly negative I find is that the lighting is too dim.
All in all, Stepho is absolutely recommended.
I have to say, Stepho's is probably the best Greek restaurant in Vancouver in terms of value. There are other fine Greek restaurants but they all overcharge for what you get. I don't know how this place charges so little for such huge portions. But it's not just the quantity but it's pretty tasty too. Some of the below reviews say the souvlaki wasn't good but I enjoyed mine every time...especially the chicken. The spanokopita is excellent as the phyllo crust is nice and crisp. The roast lamb, lasagna and the barbecue chicken dinner are very good. The clams are very good too. Make sure you save some pita bread to dip into the broth.
Some reviewers have complained about the calamari and I too have tried it when it was good and bad. My friend and I talked to one of the cooks there and he claims it depends on the supplier. The pregutted and cleaned calamari does not taste good as it's too mushy. However, I've been lucky lately as the calamari has been pretty good. Maybe there were a lot of complaints.
All of the above mentioned dishes are good but the best is the ribs. It's not on the menu as it's only available as a "special of the day" which is on Sunday and Thursday. I've tried it only handful of times as it's always sold out....dammit! It's so good. The meat falls off the bone easily and it's very juicy. The sauce has a little kick to it which makes it even better. Makes you drool, doesn't it?
Why anyone in there right mind would wait in line for a mediocre meal in beyond me. While the prices are reasonable, the souvlaki I had was tough to chew and there is way too much food to make it an enjoyable meal. Won't be going there anytime soon.
Been going here for years! You'd think its a nightclub with the lineups outside every day! They even added a heater outside for the cold waits. Food is good, so tasty! My favourites are the Roast Lamb, Souvlaki, Kalamari and Saganaki. The price will shock you too for what you get! Basically the food is piled high and good to the last bite. Always worth the wait!
Last week we went to Stefo's, one of many times now, and as expected had a great dinner, also have to agree that calamary there were better before than now. But as for other dishes - we always order a bunch of appetizers - they are just as good as always. It is a simple traditional Greek food, with nice portions to eat and take out leftovers, which we donated to a homeless dude hwo asked us for those as soon as we came out of the restaurant.
Service, especially last time, was very friendly, and if food came to table just a bit faster, it could pass for excellent. Also we noticed, and not for the first time, that at Stefo's they keep line up on purpose. When we arrived, there was a group of about 6 people ahead of us, and hostess recorded our names, and in a few minutes we were waiting in the room, where we had to wait for about 10 minutes just to be seated to the table which had been ready right at the time we arrived (we were wondering for who do they keep it, and found out it was for us, lol). But generally it is Stefo's style to let people experience a line-up, and if you have some time to kill, try it out, it may be fun if weather is good!
The wait for stepho's sometimes is very long but well worth the wait. I always order the calamari dinner and it is the best i have had at any greek restaurant. The portions are huge and the calamari is very crispy and tastes like it marinated with garlic. My boyfriend always orders the kleftiko and this is his favorite out of all the greek restaurants, they actually stuff it with chunks of garlic. I find that the bread and greek salad isnt the greatest but you dont come to stepho's for bread you come food the main course. I am surprised how quickly your food arrives much quicker then a restaurant that may not even be busy. This place always has a long wait and it is for a reason i love this restaurant the prices are dirt cheap and the food is the best!

I have better news than usual.
They said the reason for no blasties this time is because it isn't quite 5 days yet (EPU was about 3pm, t'fer was about 8:30am).
But, of the 5 eggs that fertilised we made 5 (yes, 5) morulas. This FS hadn't previously discussed how many to transfer, but walked in today asking "So are we going for twins?" They had already prepared 2 embryos for transfer, both were grade A morulas. These were the ones that were at 8 and 9 cells on day 3.
Feeling a little bit hopeful again.
Felicita that's excellent news!!!!!! I'm so excited!!!! I have tears in my eyes and my heart is racing with excitement!!!!!! Imagine if u get twins and frosties!!!! This is it, I can feel it!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! now put those woolen socks on, and laugh your head off to get those embies snuggling in.
Sending you big hugs felicitia.. Xoxo
Felicita - so happy for you, fantastic news, congratulations!!!!
Wow felicita that's amazing!! You must be sooooooo happy.
Have everything crossed for you. 11 days and counting
Great news Felicita, fingers crossed they snuggle in for the next 9 months!
Sent from my iPad using Bub Hub app
Felicita that's wonderful news!! I'm sure these will be the beautiful embies that will result in some beautiful babies!! I've got everything crossed for you xxxx
No frosties, but still better news than usual.
Two of them went on to become poor quality early blastocysts on day 6. That makes them the second and third blasties we've ever seen, so hopefully the better quality embies that we had transferred are growing even better.
