TV Show Review | DD's Gora is an appreciable effort; Rated 3.5 Stars
Adgully | 1 Nov 2012
The true definition of a classic is its timelessness. A work of literature written a century earlier is a classic if it is as relevant today as it was when it was first conceived. Perhaps that is what differentiates first Asian Nobel Laureate and eminent author Rabindranath Tagore from his contemporaries. Almost everything he wrote in his lifetime is as relevant to the India of today as it was to the India of the colonial era. His second novel 'Gora' – arguably one of his best - deals with the debate between modernity and tradition with arguments both for and against traditionally accepted norms.
The novel was written over two years 1907 to 1909 and Tagore set it in the decade of the 1880s after the brutal reprisal by the British of the 1857 Uprising. Opposed to nationalism and fundamentalism of every kind, Tagore provides in 'Gora' a fascinating account of that time as well as the search for true liberation and universalism.
Gora premiered on Monday 29th October 2012 at 9.30 pm on Doordarshan. The channel was looking for a suitable manner to pay their tributes to the litterateur on his 150th birth anniversary and Gora seemed the perfect choice.
The story is set in Calcutta during the 1880's. Gourmohan 'Gora' to his friends is a staunch orthodox Hindu – believing 'his' Hindu society can change only come after Indians end British rule. In this quest, he gives up friendships, relationships, and love to single mindedly pursue his idea of the ideal society. His father too a staunch Hindu is seen following Hindu rituals and customs with much fervour. His wife played by the versatile Joyshree Arora is not too happy with his ways and voices her opinion saying that he should take on more responsibilities as a householder. They are concerned about Gora's (Gaurav Dwivedi) future and wish to see him settled in life. His father is reluctant to get him married into a Brahmin family. All the same they suggest that he pay a visit to their acquaintance Paresh Bhattarcharjee who has four daughters, all of marriageable age. Gora reluctantly agrees to his parents request. In the following scene we see men gathered to listen to a speaker glorifying the ideals of Rajaram Mohan Roy. He is Anandbabu. But protesters barge in to disrupt the meeting.
The scene then shifts to the residence of Paresh Bhattarcharjee and his family. Binoy (Gora's best friend) arrives at their residence for a social visit. Gora honouring the commitment made to his parents too arrives there The discussion veers around to philosophical topics and the evils prevalent in the society. Anandbabu also makes an appearance and he is criticized by Gora for his beliefs and ideals. Gora is very adamant and refuses the family's hospitality. Paresh's wife is not too pleased with Gora's staunch beliefs. But she takes a liking for Binoy (Prabhat Raghunandan) whom she is sure will make a perfect husband for one of her daughters. She asks her daughters to display their various talents to impress Binoy. The very purpose of Gora's visit is defeated when he shows absolutely no interest in any of Paresh's daughters. His only concern centres around the evils prevalent in the society and he voices his opinion with regard to the same.
The serial attempts to accord primacy to socially relevant and meaningful content which informs, educates and entertains its audiences. As seen with most of their programmes, Doordarshan this time too have come out with a 'content with a difference' through the serial Gora.
Most of the questions raised in this dramatized version of the novel are relevant today. It deals with issues such as the role of lower castes in society , the dispossessed and also the role of women in nation building. The disconnect between urban educated and rural peasants too is brought to the fore. The educated classes discuss issues of societal ills and think of ways to eradicate them, whereas the peasants are still engaged in a fight for their daily survival. Hence the economic divide is apparent despite progress made in society . The debate between tradition and modernity is relevant today as much as it was during the pre –independence era.
Through this dramatization we learn of Tagore's notion of freedom and how freedom is impossible without human liberation. It can only be achieved by moving out of all boundaries of caste, class and gender.
The backdrop of the pre-independence era has been portrayed well and one is easily transported into a different time zone. The credit goes to Suchismita Dasgupta, the stylist, who has been able to aptly recreate the period of the 1880s the era in which the story is set.
Produced by the renowned filmmaker, curator, distributor, exhibitor and producer Gargi Sen, the series has been directed by Somnath Sen who is known for his work in cinema. It has been filmed by B. Chaki and scripted by Sreejaya Radhakrishnan. The music has been composed by Dabbu and Sanjoy using Tagore's prolific music of that period sourced from Tagore's own inspiration, the Baul music of Bengal.
Gaurav Dwivedi as Gora has made a sincere effort to get into the skin of the character and has definitely succeeded in doing so. The supporting cast and the dialogues rendered by them too are very authentic. The direction is superb. The cast consists of the highly talented and extremely disciplined actors from the Film and Television Institute of India. They include Gaurav Dwivedi, Prabhat Raghunandan and Swati Sen including other artistes like Chandrahas Tiwari and Anuya Bhagwat. The cast is embellished with the presence of the versatile Joyshree Arora as Gora's mother.
A point to be noted is the frequent ad breaks which proved to be a setback to the otherwise enjoyable viewing experience. A break in the continuity hampers the viewer's interest in the serial. But it goes without saying that Gora is an appreciable effort on the part of the makers who have done full justice to the serial.
Gora scheduled for telecast every Monday and Tuesday at 9.30 pm. is a must watch serial for the young and old generation alike. It is educative, entertaining and informative and thus recommended for one and all!
Adgully gives "Gora' a 3.5 out of 5 stars!

"Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer."
Romans 12:12 NIV
Oh how I love this verse- so simple, yet sometimes so hard to do! During tough times of "affliction" how hard is it to be joyful, patient, and faithful? Don't we want to do the opposite- complain, grumble and give up!? This verse says that only HOPE, the hope we find in Jesus, can help us to be joyful, patient and faithful…these things are not possible on our own.
Praise the Lord for Hope!

If you're looking for the best beauty tips, and even thinking of turning your passion into a career, then a cosmetology school West Palm Beach could be a great move for your future. Educating the barbers, massage therapists, and skin care specialists of the future, the Hollywood Institute is an affordable cosmetology school West Palm Beach that you can trust.
When you're looking for expert tuition, this is the school that you want to be at, and you can even get started with our simple tips for treating brittle and unruly hair.
Brittle Hair Tips from a Leading School for Cosmetology West Palm Beach
Like any other part of your body, good hair requires good nutrition and regular care. However, that doesn't mean that you'll need to spend hours making your hair look good. Even the driest and most brittle hair can be repaired and maintained, and these are the tips to help you take care of yours.
Shampoo is Stripping Your Hair of Important Oil
One of the most important changes you can make is to stop using so much shampoo. Most shampoos are high in detergents that will strip your hair of natural oil, and even following up with a conditioner or treatment won't be enough to undo the damage. Try using a milder shampoo, or even switching to a routine when you only shampoo every other day. People with curly and wavy hair often find that co-cleaning (using conditioner to cleanse the hair) is better than using harsh shampoo products. Look for products that are sulfate-free. Not only do these prevent color loss, but they'll also help to prevent valuable moisture from leaving your hair.
All Day Conditioner
To give your hair a moisture boost and avoid damaged brittle hair, try using a leave in conditioner. A quality leaves in conditioner will keep your hair moisturized throughout the day, and can be especially useful if you spend a lot of time outside, or in a dry air conditioned environment. If you're using a leave in conditioner, make sure you avoid brushing your hair and instead use a wide tooth comb. Your hair is most vulnerable when it's wet, and most hair brushes will damage your hair. Switching to a comb will be much gentler and you should notice results within the first week.
A Simple and Natural Solution
At cosmetology school West Palm Beach, you'll learn about some of the best commercial products for treating dry and brittle hair. These are specially formulated products that use combinations of natural and synthetic ingredients. They work great, and in many cases, they are recommended, however, there will be times when you can use a natural solution, especially if you're just experimenting at home.
A combination of apple cider vinegar and olive oil is well-known and trusted remedy for treating dry hair. It cleanses the hair and resets PH balance, without causing damage. This is also a relatively inexpensive solution and you probably already have the ingredients at home.
To try this method, simply mix a teaspoon of vinegar with two table spoons of virgin olive oil. Use it as a treatment and distribute it throughout your hair, and then cover your hair with a shower cap or kitchen plastic wrap, leaving the treatment for up to 30 minutes. When you're done, use a mild shampoo to wash out the treatment, and rinse your hair thoroughly. You'll be left with soft hair that smells fresh and feels great.
Take Your Learning a Step Further with School for Cosmetology West Palm Beach
If you get excited about fashion, beauty, and skin or hair care, then you could start a career as a trained cosmetologist. Hollywood Institute is the best place to learn, with experienced staff and proven to learn programs that will certify you for work in the industry.

This story has been updated, see bottom.
We're not against the police. We're not against the police department, but we are against police who commit misconduct (and those who help cover it up).
Does the Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck and the LAPD condone, support, and even cover up incidents of domestic violence? That's the question being posed after finding out that Beck canceled a Board of Rights termination hearing for a police officer who was basically beating the living daylights out of his now ex-wife.
Ladies and gentlemen meet Alex Peraza (#35659). Peraza is no ordinary police officer. A veteran of 15 years, as a P3 (Police Officer 3), Peraza is the Department's "poster boy" for recruitment. His picture is used on flyers, brochures, ads and the like and today he serves as the Department's Military Liaison Officer.
But what the Department doesn't want you to know is that before Peraza landed in the cushy position he now occupies, he was headed for a Board of Rights termination hearing in January of this year—that is until it was canceled.
It seems Peraza had a bad habit of drinking a little too much and then taking out his frustrations on his ex-wife in the physical sort of way. But Peraza didn't limit his abuse to his ex-wife, no he made it a family affair and included his ex-wife's elderly mother and sister.
A former Marine, Peraza was married for approximately 8 and half years before his wife eventually divorced him. During the last three of years of their marriage Peraza routinely hit,beat, choked, strangled, slapped, kicked, dragged, and verbally abused her. I'm told that he threatened her life on more than one occasion.
The ex-wife finally couldn't take anymore and reported the abuse to her boss. A LAPD lieutenant immediately did an interview with the ex-wife.
In an August 8, 2012 Claremont police report Peraza admits to lunging towards his ex-wife and waving his gun around during an argument. That same police report was used to grant an Emergency Protective Order against Peraza.
I'm told that the case went to the Department's Internal Affairs Division where interviews were done with the ex-wife's sister, best friend, and Lieutenant Whitman of LAPD's West Traffic Division. Whitman was a neighbor to the Peraza's and was able to corroborate the ex-wife's story because during one of the more brutal beatings she ran to his house for help.
In October of 2012 a permanent restraining order was granted to the ex-wife against Officer Peraza.
According to LAPD insiders, in November 2012 Officer Peraza sat in his car outside of his ex-wife's job. She reported his presence to her boss who then gave the heads up to his Captain over at LAPD's Recruitment Employment Division (RED).
Eventually the case was sent to the District Attorney's office and the charges were assault with a firearm and domestic violence battery on a non-cohabiting spouse.
From what I'm told Peraza either had friends in high places or D.A. Madison was just having a bad day when she spoke with the victim. Pereza's ex-wife, the victim, was asked by the D.A.'s office if she and her family were trying to get Officer Peraza fired. The victim was told that Peraza could lose his job. She was basically was discouraged from continuing on in the investigation.
At one point the D.A.'s office told Peraza's ex-wife that there wasn't sufficient evidence.
On the issue of evidence, Peraza's ex-wife submitted photos of some of her bruises as well as torn clothing from the incident in question where she was pulled by her hair and her clothes by Officer Peraza. And even with the police report where Officer Peraza admitted to holding and waving his gun around during the argument not to mention the granting of the restraining order, the D.A.'s office still rejected the case.
Meanwhile back at Internal Affairs, Peraza's ex-wife is told that the photos of her injuries aren't needed and that there is enough evidence to bring Officer Peraza before a Board of Right termination hearing. Remember, they interviewed a neighbor who is also a cop, the wife's sister, and best friend.
In December 2013 the ex-wife is told that a date for a Board of Rights hearing is set for January 28. There's a mad dash by the ex-wife and the her family to get all of the evidence and testimony over to Internal Affairs just to make sure that they have everything they need to find him guilty. If you recall earlier in this story I told you how Internal Affairs declined some of the evidence because they felt that they already had enough—whatever that means.
Anyway, the evidence was delivered to a sergeant in Internal Affairs. That evidence included photos, witness testimony from the ex-wife's mother and niece as well as damaging text messages from Officer Peraza to his ex-wife.
In addition, the ex-wife called Internal Affairs only to receive a call back from her divisional captain questioning whether she called IA. This divisional captain goes onto say that if she did call Internal Affairs to leave it alone and let it play out and that she was going to promote.
Oh did I forget to mention that Officer Peraza's ex-wife is also a police officer with the LAPD?
So how does this story end?
Well the ex-wife does end up promoting to the rank of detective.
That Board of Rights termination hearing and all of that evidence as it turns out wasn't needed after all. Why you ask? Because Chief Beck used what is known as a military endorsement to send the case from a Board of Rights to a settlement hearing where the rumor is Officer Peraza received a penalty of a five-day suspension for physically abusing his ex-wife, her mother and sister.
A military endorsement is a lifeline of sorts when you are about to face a Board of Rights. It gives the next level reviewer, basically anyone higher in rank in the disciplinary process, the option of canceling the BOR in lieu of a lesser punishment.
And for those naysayers who think I am making it all up, here's the text message from an investigator in Inspector General Alex Bustamante's Office to Officer Peraza's ex-wife confirming Beck's decision.
For the record, the end of that text message reads as follows exactly:
…bill of rights I can't say what the findings were
Officer Peraza, who had been working under Chief Beck as his Military Liaison Officer ended up marrying the woman he was having an affair with in the Department, one Chief Beck's daughter's closest friends LAPD Officer Susan Torres. I'm told he was recently sent over to Olympic Station.
Meanwhile, the family of the ex-wife has filed a complaint with the Inspector General because they were victims of his abuse as well and are none too please with the outcome of this case. I'm told that they did this only after they were convinced not to go to the media by the ex-wife who had faith in the Department, Chief Beck, and the system to do the right thing by her and her family. They are asking for the case to be re-opened, an end to the Department's unfair disciplinary process and overall justice for people Peraza's innocent victims.
In addition, all of this is being or has been sent over to the Police Commission for review.
According to a 2005 report Batterers with Badges: Officer-Involved Domestic Violence, of the 91 cases of alleged OIDV investigated by the Los Angles Police Department and sustained between 1990 and 1997, "only 4 resulted in a criminal conviction." One of those four officers "was suspended for only 15 days" and the conviction of another was expunged. On the other hand, 26 of the 91 officers "were promoted, including 6 employees who promoted within 2 years of the … incident."
An in-depth investigation of the Department conducted by the Office of the Inspector General concluded that the discipline imposed on officers found guilty of domestic violence "was exceedingly light when the facts of each incident were examined"
I'd like to get my hands on more recent numbers involving OIDV investigated by the Los Angeles Police Department (hint hint), but we'll work with what we have.
I'll leave you with this quote from an article in the Daily News featuring Chief Beck and then mayor Antonio Villaraigosa:
The LAPD gets about 48,000 domestic violence calls per year. The department investigates about 20,000 as actual crimes, according to Beck, who called domestic violence a "crime against society."
UPDATED Thursday, August 14, 2014 4:12 p.m. to include screenshot of text message from Officer Alex Peraza to someone close to the situation between him and his ex-wife. The text message was sent after one of the domestic violence incidents mentioned above.

I know I'm probably one of few over 30 chicks here but we're all "maturing and aging", right? LOL
Well I have to tell you about these amazing facial creams made by company i absolutely love - Penny Lane. They're great people with fantastic service, fast and free shipping (when you order $50 or more) and they make these wonderful facial creams that my skin just adores. I used to smoke until recently so my skin started looking dull but once I started using their creams my skin started to glow. I used to buy these creams individually but now they offer a set for a nice saving.

text: The requirements paradigm has been changing over the last few years. There is much more interaction with stakeholders throughout the lifecycle. There is an acknowledgement that we do not know all the requirements at the beginning of a project, so we need to be able to readily accommodate change. There is also a realization that requirements drive complex projects, meaning that we need to be able to trace requirements to design, development and test. The new DOORS Next Generation facilitates all of this. Also version 6.0 of DOORS Next Generation includes a new diagram editor, the Jazz Reporting Service (JRS), and mechanisms to sync requirement configurations with test and development configurations. We are hoping to give you a taste of all of this in the DOORS Next Generation 6.0 webinar.

Playa Malpasos
Continuing south from Sayulita beyond Playa Las Cuevas is the long, white sand beach and clear ocean water of Playa Malpasos, where many tourists visit for its beauty. Framed by tall palm trees, this remote beach extends into the open sea with minimal rocks and is primarily for sightseeing. Swimming is discouraged since this part of the ocean has a dangerous undertow. To find Playa Malpasos beach, hike through a jungle path from Playa Centro or Calle M. Navarrete heading straight through the open gate towards the left.

At first glance, "Knight and Day" looks like a frivolous movie kinda like the movie "Killers" released earlier this month, but I can tell you right now, that the two arent very much alike. Killers was a very romance-y comedy where the focus was more on the relationship of the two people than the story itself. "Knight and Day" however was kind of like Mission Impossible with a comedic atmosphere. Tom Cruise is every bit as bad ass as the trailers lead on and as it turns out, they make Cameron Diaz into much more than the frantic part the trailers make her out to be. The plot follows Tom Cruise as an "rogue" agent protecting a revolutionary battery from falling into the wrong hands while at the same time protecting Cameron Diaz and the batterys inventor from being "taken out" which provides for plenty of comedy and lots of action along the way. All I can say is that the movie was absolutely bad-ass, had me and my buddies laughing quite a bit while the explosions and wanton violence kept me more than satisfied even if the movie didnt have a thick enough plot (which it does). In the end, I would definitely recommend that you see this movie, and dont worry at under 2 hours long you wont have to worry about them dragging a story out beyond its usefulness.

All opinions are mine and mine alone.
Creativity is a tricky thing. It comes in bursts and then vanishes like a thief in the night. We live in an age when every insight and idea is quickly turned into viable business plans. This is great, but it also puts a lot of pressure on start-ups and even established companies to stay on top of their game to avoid getting left behind. If you work in the kind of environment where thinking out-of-the-box is necessary to the success of the business, here are some useful tips to keep employees inspired and cultivate creativity in the workplace.
Enforce break times
Hard work and dedication is good, but not to the point of burning yourself out. For creative juices to flow, the mind needs some space to breathe. It can't breathe if it's exhausted from working weekends and overtimes. To keep workplace brains happy and humming with innovative ideas, break times should be used to give employees a much-needed break. Sure sometimes urgent tasks can disrupt break times, but this does not have to be the norm. If it keeps happening, then there could be bigger problems at pay, like poor time management and a tendency to over-promise.
Bloom the workplace
The workplace environment is an important factor in cultivating workplace creativity. A dark and depressing office is bound to get employees down. Clutter can also further cause chaos in people's mind. That's how much influence our environment has on our disposition. So for creativity to bloom, allow people to express their individuality. Some people like having photos of their loved ones on the table, others keep their desks nice and spare. Adding cheap flowers and succulents around the workplace not only brightens the overall vibe, they also help filter out toxins from the atmosphere.
Implement an anonymous "suggestion box"
Some people may already have great ideas and creative suggestions, but they don't have the outlet to share them. Sometimes, too, they may have reservations about voicing their concerns. To resolve those issues, you can implement a "suggestion box" type of platform where people can anonymously submit suggestions and ideas on improving business processes or even just to make the workplace a fun and inspiring place for everyone.
Encourage workplace diversity
Diversity is essential for out-of-the-box thinking. If everyone looks and thinks the same way, then you get more of the same ideas. Bringing in diverse personalities, backgrounds and working styles foster a rich environment for innovation. The downside, of course, is that too much diversity can be chaotic, so there needs to be a good system and visionary leaders in place guiding teams to achieve their full potential.
Organise off-site activities
Ideas come for everyday experiences, so being cooped up in the same space for lengths at a time whittles down experiences and stimuli that can spark inspiration. Experts say that we are wired to be outside and that being closer to nature can help reduce our stress levels. To this end, an off-site activity not only gives people the opportunity to engage in team-building activities, it also puts them in a refreshing new environment to reignite their senses. Off-site activities allow people to get to know each other on a different level, which means they can gain insight about other people's personality which can help future collaborations.

- folate deficiency WITH "With"
Information for Patients
Also called: Iron poor blood
If you have anemia, your blood does not carry enough oxygen to the rest of your body. The most common cause of anemia is not having enough iron. Your body needs iron to make hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is an iron-rich protein that gives the red color to blood. It carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body.
Anemia has three main causes: blood loss, lack of red blood cell production, and high rates of red blood cell destruction.
Conditions that may lead to anemia include
- Heavy periods
- Pregnancy
- Ulcers
- Colon polyps or colon cancer
- Inherited disorders
- A diet that does not have enough iron, folic acid or vitamin B12
- Blood disorders such as sickle cell anemia and thalassemia, or cancer
- Aplastic anemia, a condition that can be inherited or acquired
- G6PD deficiency, a metabolic disorder
Anemia can make you feel tired, cold, dizzy, and irritable. You may be short of breath or have a headache.
Your doctor will diagnose anemia with a physical exam and blood tests. Treatment depends on the kind of anemia you have.

Folic Acid
Also called: Folacin, Folate, Pteroylglutamic acid, Vitamin B9
Folic acid is a B vitamin. It helps the body make healthy new cells. Everyone needs folic acid. For women who may get pregnant, it is really important. Getting enough folic acid before and during pregnancy can prevent major birth defects of her baby's brain or spine.
Foods with folic acid in them include
- Leafy green vegetables
- Fruits
- Dried beans, peas, and nuts
- Enriched breads, cereals and other grain products
If you don't get enough folic acid from the foods you eat, you can also take it as a dietary supplement.

I've definitely noticed this more the past 5 years than the 20 I was growing up.
It is almost a DEFAULT for a guy in decent shape (within the healthy BMI scale or just dipping into overweight) to be dating a woman hovering on obesity.
I know Canada is close to America in obesity rates, but it seems there are more women than men on this scale. If I had to guess it would be 60-40 female to male obesity.
And with that, of course even fat women can get boyfriends but what amazes me is these good looking guys dating fat girls and I know it's because there are fewer and fewer girls of good weight around.

It's March 1 and spring is in the air (or is that just coal smoke?). One of the surprises for me about Beijing was how cold it really gets, especially since Beijing and San Francisco are roughly at the same latitude. Unlike in SF (or even Seattle), in Beijing, the lakes and rivers freeze over, and Beijingers head out onto the ice.
One popular place to play is Houhai, the lakes behind the Forbidden City. In addition to ice skating, the locals have other ways to enjoy the ice. One popular older form is to sit on ice chairs and propel themselves with sharp poles. According to our driver, they did this originally because many people couldn't afford skates.
A newer toy is the ice bike. I think the back wheel must have studs on it.
Nearby, vendors sold animals (usually ones from the Chinese zodiac) blown from blobs of sugary dough. (The art is called nie1 mian4 捏面 in Chinese, meaning "knead or pinch dough".) These were super cool, but they kind of sagged and melted when brought into the warm house. I've seen some people eat these, but I don't think that's advisable since the dude worked the dough with his hands and then blew into it the blob.
It was definitely a popular place and, like all fun things in Beijing, crowded. (The big tower in behind the lake is the Gulou or Drum Tower.)
We weren't dressed to play that day at Houhai, so I took the boys skating at a rink near our house. Well, Andrew (11) skated and Michael (8) ran around on the ice.
Eventually, Andrew dropped his skates and started ice bowling (with himself as the ball).
I can't remember the last time I skated or even walked on a frozen lake. It's definitely been 25-30 years (crap, I hate the way that sounds). Skating on the bumpy, grooved ice is definitely a different experience than smooth arena ice (go, Zamboni!) but we all had a great time.
While I'm looking forward to spring, I'm sad we didn't enjoy the ice more while we had it. We'll have to play more next winter.

About Me
This is my journey
I got a degree in acting and filmmaking.
Why did I do that?
Because, to compete, I needed to be good.
I wanted to be really legit.
And I was.
I made a few of short films.
Indie stuff, student films, some small parts on big sets.
I worked the stage a little. I loved what I was doing!
I wanted to go bigger.
But I have a family.
I couldn't just head to mecca like my friends.
And my art wasn't paying the bills.
So, I had to work a "real" job…
and I had to work a lot.
I was overworked and undervalued.
I desperately wanted to make money AND films.
But how?
Everyone I knew made films for free.
"Investing" in their art, hoping they'd get "discovered."
So, I got a masters in business
from a school ranked #17 by Forbes in 2013.
I studied analytics, marketing, and finance
and started consulting.
And it occurred to me…
Why don't I apply what know about business and analytics to filmmaking.
Even the major studios don't quite get it yet.
That gives us an advantage.

Lexus IS Maintenance and Repair
wendymw Posts: 2Well, I'm having buyer's remorse. Test drove the usual-- Audi, Infiniti,Acura, etc. I loved the fit and finish of the IS250. I also liked having AWD since I'm in the Boston area. Here's my problems:
1) it is incredibly LOUD. I brought it back to the dealer, thinking something was wrong. There is so much road noise, I can't turn the radio up high enough to drown it out. I didn't notice this noise on the test drive. I wonder if my car has different tires than the tester. The sales guy drove with me in my new car and said the noise was normal.
2) the Bluetooth stinks. People can't hear me even when I'm shouting. I have the volume turned all the way up-- but I just hear the other people really loudly now. They don't hear me any better.
3) the Nav system is bad. It won't give you the actual turn by turn directions more then 3-4 steps ahead. I like to see the route it is taking me, to make sure I "agree" with it. It won't let me do this. It also doesn't have enough info (or I can't figure out how to get the info). For example, in the city, there are 3 different "100 Cambridge St" addresses-- each in a different zip code. It lists all three-- but doesn't list the zip code! So, I don't know which address it is taking me to. Same thing with POI. It lists "AMC movie theatre" about 8 times-- but doesn't tell me which AMC it is. Doesn't give the street names verbally either. It's a waste. I plugged my $150 garmin into the car since it's more reliable.
So, the $2000 Nav is a waste. I got it mostly because you have to in order to get bluetooth. But both really stink in this car.
4) Acceleration is nothing close to my former BMW 325i. I loved the Infiniti's pickup, but the car seemed a little too big, a little TOO zippy, and not as "polished" as the Lexus. I now wish I got the Infiniti.
Any ideas about the road noise and lousy bluetooth?
I would take the service manager for a drive, not the salesman.
Also,do they have a similar car in their loaner fleet that you can compare yours to?
My rims came right off. Try hitting the lug area with a rubber mallet. Alternately, gently nudge the edge of the rim with your shoulder, but be careful not to nick the studs.
The road noise is noticeable on the IS. Tire and rim selection and the stiff suspension are key components to the road noise issue. When I switched from the factory Dunlops to Michelin PS2s, the road noise on my IS decreased a bit. I drove a friend's older M3 with PS2s, and the road noise was just a little less than my IS. Road noise comes with the territory.
tyou08 Posts: 16Thanks Carmonkey.
The vibration is caused by a bad camshaft gear. My 06 AWD had the same symptoms. There is a TSB to replace the gear and it was replace free of cost at the dealership in the warranty period.
The dealers have to be educated!
Popping noise when braking is caused by the self adjusting/floating brake calipers. The noise is when the brakes "adjust". My car brakes do this every morning. Usually, I hear the noise the first time the brakes are applied. Get a confirmation from a good mechanic and if confirmed, nothing to worry.
Where is the 'supposed" quality in these vehicles that J.D. Power gives such terrific ratings to, and I wonder if any of the folks from Lexus ever read this postings?
The popping noise happens almost every time I turn (slow speed turns). Lexus has had my car for two months.
Have you sought a second opinion from a mechanic other than the one at the dealership? In my experience, Lexus mechanics are useless!
I just heard back from the dealer and they say it is the engine mount. They told me that when I was turning it would put strain on the bad mount and it would make that popping sound. I am on vacation, so I cannot verify this until after labor day. I will post if this really did fix this issue.
I notice there's this high pitched humming noise like someone blowing into a flute. I took it to an independent shop thinking it was bearings. They said it was my tires. I have the low profile tires with a v tread pattern. It's the weirdest noise I've ever heard. Have you guys ever heard this noise?
The road noise are the aggressive tires. You'll have to do some googling to find quieter tires. Pickup isn't that bad to me. You have that button on the right, next to the traction control to set it to extra power if you want it. I like getting 25 mpg so I don't use it. Setting it to sport and using the paddles also makes it zippier. My GF has an infinity G35 sedan. Lexus is more Luxury oriented than sports car.
i had bridgestone potenzas which were failry quiet until aboiut 15k miles, then they started to get very loud. by about 28k, they were extremely loud, and i was disappointing. i had a problem with one tire that neded to be replaced and so i bought a set of yokohama avid w4s. SIGNIFICANTLY less noise. i am much happier now.
scotty60 Posts: 1Hi All. Can someone help with how to remove the GPS control pad in my 04 IS300. Wifes latte spillied in it did it no good. Need to remove and clean buttons.
jccai1 Posts: 106I have a similar problem on my 08 IS250 RWD. I hear a metal creaking noise from the driver side front when making slow and sharp right turns. I've brought this up with the dealer twice. Every time, they retightened the front suspension and put some lube on it, and the noise would go away for a month. Then it would come back. Since it's not that bad and doesn't seem to affect how it drives, I've come to ignore the noise. Please post if anyone knows of a permanent fix. It is disappointing for a new, high end car to have this kind of recurring problem, especially one that claims to be one of the most reliable.
insidertrading Posts: 4ALL the factory GPS have at least one drawback. The IS250 is a lot more fuel efficient than the G35 so don't feel too bad about not geting the G.
Sorry for not posting a follow up to my post. Yes the noise is gone. Over 1K miles with no popping sound. The dealer said they took one suspension piece off my car and put it on a loaner car until they eliminated the suspension. After everything was tested and my car was still making the popping sound they discovered it was the nut that held the engine mount. Two months in the shop for a nut....
Is there a recall for the floor mat problem?
Yes - there is a recall on IS floor mats. My belief is that it is a recall of the carpet floors mats, and not the Lexus rubber ones which "hook" to the floor. I understand that there has been at least once accident where the carpet floor mat was pushed up under the accelerator pedal and caused the driver to loose control. A friend with an IS250 took her car in for service tnad the dealer removed the floor(s) from her car while it was in. That being siad, I havenot received a formal ecall notice yet and am not sure what Lexus plans on replacing them with.
pure2127 Posts: 1well it started on a rainy day when i tried to pass a car up and my rpms jumped up and my car slowed down and it no longer goes faster then 5 mph and the rpms just rev up i changed my fule pump and check my catalyst converter and thats not it. can someone please help me out lexus 1991 es 250
Had the 3rd one today (cold day). Ayone else have a problem with false tire pressure warnings and know of a solution?
Lexis service manager is checking to see if the sensors can be adjusted.
We had a week of very cold weather here last winter. Tire pressure monitor light came on and was on for a week. Once I realized that it was the temperature that was causing it I ignored it. Light went off the next week when it warmed up a little.
xraymanrr Posts: 34i have a 2008 IS 250 AWD and need new tires. i currently have bridgestone potenza re92 and i am not happy with the wet handling ability. tire selection is limited in this speed rating. 225 45 17 91V. any recommendations on dunlop sp sport 5000 or continental contiprocontact tires or any other tires.
samiam_68 Posts: 775I would stay away from Dunlop - I had SP 5000's on my GS and they kept getting punctures. Very fragile tires. I have Yokohama Avids V4S now and they are excellent in dry and wet, average in snow. Very sturdy tires - no damage whatsoever after 25K miles and they still have a lot of tread left.
i have yokohama avid w4s they were much quieter and handle much better in the snow than the bridgestone potenza that came with the vehicle.
isdriver2 Posts: 7I own a 2002 IS300 and have had trouble with the coolant tank hose resting on the drive belt. It started with a rattling/swishing sound in the passenger side of the dash. When the mechanics checked it out, they found that the hose had been cut because of the drive belt. This was back in 2004 and the hose was replaced, free of charge. It is happening once again and I'll be taking my car in on Monday. The mechanic said the hose shouldn't have been on the drive belt. I believe this to be a defect in the car and I don't believe I should pay for this. Anyone else with this problem?
mibrow Posts: 12Hi,
These days I've heard news about a Toyota-Lexus recall that includes the IS250 2010. I 'd appreciate any feedback/experience about this recall... What I have to do? Take my car to a Lexus dealer Service Department.
On a previous 2006 IS250 recall the service department contacted me when they had the parts required. They gave me a loaner, washed my car and filled the gas tank.
Your dealer will contact you. Make sure you take you car in with a near empty gas tank. The dealer is supposed to fill your tank as a goodwill gesture. I drove in on fumes earlier this year for a recall on my IS350, and my local dealer filled the tank without hesitation.

Development of Self of Children. Custom Development of Self of Children Essay Writing Service || Development of Self of Children Essay samples, help
Every child goes through both physical and emotional development. Understanding a child's emotion is very important in a child's life. However, many guardians focus more on their children's physical development than their emotional aspects. In normal practice, it is important for parents and guardians to give more attention to a child's emotions throughout his/her growth so as to understand the child's behavior better. Understanding a child's emotional behavior would give caregivers an opportunity to know how the child feels when a certain action is taken or when in a particular situation occurs. If a caregiver understand a child's emotions, then it would be easy for him/her to help the child deal with life experiences. Moreover, children reveal different behaviors at different stages of their development. This calls for the need for caregivers to understand such variation in emotions so as to deal with those behaviors effectively.
Children at ages zero to one: A lot of development occurs in children during this period and therefore extra care needs to be taken when dealing with children. At this stage children are very delicate because they are still coping with life outside the womb. Therefore, the child's normal response and reaction is crying. Such a child can cry when hungry, which is named as "hungry cry" (Zastrow & Kirst-Ashman, 2010). For instance, children at ages 0-1 cry when feeling cold or hot so as to attract attention from those attending to them. The child may also cry when angry and this normally happens from three to four months of development. Children between 0 to 1 years can express their emotions when they feel tired, hurt by crying and smiling (2-3 months).
It has also been reported that some infants have practically showed their emotion through smiling a few minutes after birth. This phase of smile is known as reflex smile which occurs as a result of the development of central nervous system. From two months children smile at anyone they see or hear, this phase is known as social smiling. Finally, selective social smiling is the final phase of a child's smile. At this phase, a child smiles at people and sounds they are familiar with. This phase reflects a child's social behavior towards other people. At the month of four, a child graduates to another stage of laughing which functions as liberation from anxiety. In other words, the older the child gets the more he/she communicates with laughter. At this age children can also react by frowning, and at this point they will need to be comforted by being cuddled and even fed. In addition, when they do not recognize people around them, they may even begin to fear them and respond by crying only to be calm when they are picked up by familiar people. Children's reaction to unfamiliar people may also be shown by clinging to their parents or calming with well-known toys. Toys may not necessarily be the only soothing components to children, since some other children develop soothing behaviors such as sucking their thumbs. Resistance is another emotional development to children at the age of 0-1 years especially when they are not pleased with something.
At ages 1-5 years: At this stage, a child's emotional development is fundamental. Often children are very anxious and curious about what is happening in the environment, can be egocentric and want everything for themselves. This behavior is mostly shown at the beginning of one year and three months, where children are strongly attached to their mothers. At two to three years, children are eager to see the effects of being disobedient, especially when they do what they are forbidden from doing. In addition, children aged between 1-5 years would display certain aggression, stubbornness, and tantrums when in high temper. They can bite, kick, scream and also cry as a result of anger. On the other hand, the child can be very calm, sympathize proud and may want to offer some help when watching someone working. Children are easily distracted because they have a short duration of attention. Children at the age of 1-5 years are afraid of strange and loud noises such as, trains and thunder. At three years, children are very playful; an aspect that forms a fundamental role in their self development and also builds a sense of happiness. Such children can also negotiate without reasoning and at time they fantasize of the friends they do not have through self-conversation especially when playing alone or with their toys.
At the age of four: children's social life is improved whereby they start making friends, but they may have one favorite friend. They also enjoy playing with other children. Their past and future senses are developed to an extent that they can remember and connect the events that happened days back although not all. Similarly, at the age of 4, children shall have developed strong confidence and self assurance in everything they do. However, some children are afraid of darkness, and can scream or cry when lights abruptly go off. They also have fear of some other things especially when they hear of the negative effects associated to them. For instance, when such children are told something harmful concerning cows, they might probably develop fear of cows. 4 years old children will find comfort from adults whenever they feel sick, hurt or even tired after playing. A four year old child is very emotional and expresses such emotions in various ways. For example, they alarmingly demonstrate their anger by banging doors or stamping their feet on the floor, or even uttering some negative words about the person they feel anger towards. At times they might initiate conversations and make friends with unfamiliar people around them without being frustrated. Children who are 4 years are attached, kind, protective, and often feel insecure when their parents are away from them.
There is more stability and independence on emotional development of children whenever they are approaching six to ten years old. At this stage, a child develops strong thinking capacity begin to understand things clearly, able to talk about how they feel, and think about something. They have a lot of self confidence, are very possessive, and sometimes articulate their feelings by being sulky when provoked. At ages six to ten years, children still have a short span of concentration and therefore cannot do a lot of work. However, 7-8 years old children begin to understand a few things such as reading, writing and get familiar with money. Self-esteem becomes very critical for 7-8 years old children because of the value attached to the sense of belonging and worth. This is shown when children interact with people and also start going to school. At ten years old, the children start to have a long span of attention and therefore, they can understand their emotions and relate well. At the same time, a child who is ten years can develop is a very strong sense of distinguishing right from wrong. They can also be secretive about some things and are easily influenced by peer groups.
From the age of eleven years, a child's emotions begin to be unique. Such children are aware of almost everything that is happening around them. The changes in a child's motional behavior keep on varying between independent and preteen children. He/she becomes self-conscious and therefore need a lot of attention from their parents or caretakers. In a nut shell, from the age of 11 years, children are not bothered by fears they had when they were young, and are enthusiastic, and are passionate about a lot of things where their likes and dislikes are clearly exposed. Eventually, when children become teenagers, their emotional development takes a drastic change, this is known as the adolescence stage. This stage begins at the age of thirteen to eighteen years old during which children learn from mistakes and also learn to solve problems in a more mature way. They are more dependent to their parents although they still want to be independent and they often appreciate approval from their adults. Adolescent's emotions vary widelyand as they grow older they want life of freedom and responsibilities just like adults.
In summary, throughout a child's emotional development, the parents and caregivers should be very attentive at every development stage. This is to particularly enable parents and caregivers to know when children have a problem when growing and therefore endeavor to offer appropriate support early enough. Emotional development is a fundamental component of a child's development because it determines both physical and psychological growth in children. Owing to this, parents should be their children's best friend so as to guidance by introducing rules to the children to instill discipline, especially those at teenager stage. It also advisable for and guardians to be flexible and be able to monitor their children's behavior and listen to them so as to promote appropriate emotional development.

I don't like change. I resist it like my toddler does a spoonful of spinach: I see it coming and hide my face. I have been planning this shared bedroom since before Christmas but I'm not sure if I will ever pull the trigger. I love routine and loathe transitions, and even though there are many benefits to bringing Lucie (Eloise…who we call Lucie but I like to throw her real name out there every now and then so we don't forget it) downstairs with the rest of us, I am hesitant to upset the balance when they both sleep well.
Month: February 2017
We often get asked about all of the beautiful artwork by Deann in our home. One of the pieces we get asked about the most often is this beautiful floral piece called Courage to Bloom that we hung in our dining room in our last house.

'http' : 'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)) {e = d.createElement(s);e.id = id;e.src = p + '://' + 'widgets.rewardstyle.com' + '/js/shopthepost.js';d.body.appendChild(e);}if(typeof window.__stp === 'object') if(d.readyState === 'complete') {window.__stp.init();}}(document, 'script', 'shopthepost-script');
Our new mantel is finished and I am so excited to have this project done!
Today I wanted to show you the family room side of this space with our new rug that added the finishing touch. When I first saw this Villa Rug on our sponsor, ESaleRugs website, I thought it would be perfect for our master bedroom, however when it arrived I saw how it looked in our family room and realized I loved it even more in here!
I am so excited that our family room and breakfast nook are finished! Woohoo! Well, technically there are still a few things to finish up but the big projects are done and today I am going to start with sharing our breakfast area and new window seat.
First let's start with how the room started.
Last week we had a did our monthly Blue Apron meals and I have a new favorite! It was actually a meal I was unsure I was going to like at all and now it's not only my new favorite Blue Apron meal but one of my favorite meals of any kind and I cannot wait to make them again.

EU-Japan joint research to redefine the Future Internet.
The last Net-it-Be issue dove into the reasoning behind the EU-Japan cooperation. Strong progress has since been made. Following negotiations in 2012, six projects have been launched from the first Coordinated Call. These projects were officially presented at a inaugural event, on 2 July this year, in Tokyo.
Over the coming three years, the projects will strive to design network and computing technologies for the next generation of global telecommunications and cloud-based services beyond 2020.
There is a pressing need for new and more efficient networks in light of a massive online data explosion that is expected to continue over the next decade. The world generates 1.7 million billion bytes of data per minute, with data traffic volumes expected to grow 12-fold by 2018. Data is quickly piling up and today's networks are struggling to cope.
Solutions have to be found – and fast – because there is a lot of hidden potential for new services and applications locked in this so-called "big data", from improved internet search engines to new online tools to cut road congestion. The future of telecommunications and computing will see a world of fully interconnected users and devices, and placing big data on servers in the cloud will enable smartphones, tablets, machines, and countless sensors and interconnected wireless devices to make up the Internet of Things.
To tackle this magnitude of data and ensure reliable and secure networks, the joint research projects need to radically rethink the existing internet architecture. Network capacity, high-density data traffic, as well as cyber-security, storage and energy efficiency are among the key challenges that will need to be tackled.
The jointly-funded STRAUSS project, for instance, aims to boost optical wireless networks to 100 Gbps, while the MiWEBA project targets smarter use of radio frequencies to build ultra-high-speed wireless mobile connections. Another project, NECOMA, will explore new ways to enhance personal data security in sensitive environments, such as medical records, by developing new metrics to evaluate threats and the potential impact of cyber-attacks.
The ClouT project, meanwhile, will try to allow real-time control of sensors enabling smart cities to improve, for example, energy efficiency, traffic flows and responses to emergencies. To achieve this, the project will integrate cloud computing and Internet-of-Things features. FELIX project, on the other hand, will set up joint EU-Japan experimental platforms that will help universities and research centres to test new network technologies. Such new platforms are to help improve researchers' shared use of their experimental facilities.
The joint research programme brings together the European Commission, the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communication (MIC), the National Institute of ICT (NICT) along with European and Japanese industrial players, such as Orange, Telefonica, NEC, Panasonic, STMicroelectronics and Intel, as well as leading universities and R&D centres.

The Memoirs of P. P., Clerk of this Parish was written as a satire on Bishop Gilbert Burnet's History of my own Time (1724), an account of the historical events that had passed since the English Civil War. The Memoirs of P. P. lampoons Burnet's clumsy writing, pomposity and inability to distinguish the banal from the profound — as the advertisement states, it "might justly be entitled, 'The Importance of a Man to Himself.'" It first appeared in Miscellanies in Verse and Prose (1727) under the authorship of the Scriblerus Club, and is generally supposed to be the work of Alexander Pope. Though Hawthorne references it self-deprecatingly to suggest his prefactory essay contains all the flaws of the putative P. P.'s work, there are also parallels with The Scarlet Letter. Specifically, the clerk, having engaged in premarital liaisons himself, refuses to pass judgment on others who have committed similar crimes: "That the shame of women may not endure, I speak not of bastards; neither will I name the mothers, although thereby I might delight many grave women of the parish."
"The example of the famous "P. P., Clerk of this Parish," was never more faithfully followed"

F1: Australia crash puts Fernando Alonso out of Bahrain GP
Double world champion will not take part in Sunday's Formula One Bahrain Grand Prix as the Spaniard is yet to fully recover from injuries sustained in his horrific crash in the season-opening race in Australia
Double world champion Fernando Alonso will not take part in Sunday's Formula One Bahrain Grand Prix as the Spaniard is yet to fully recover from injuries sustained in his horrific crash in the season-opening race in Australia, he revealed yesterday.
McLaren driver Fernando Alosno
Alonso underwent tests at the medical centre at Bahrain's Sakhir circuit yesterday morning and was declared unfit to race on safety grounds. He later told reporters he was recovering from broken ribs and had also suffered a lung injury.
"I had a small pneumothorax in the lung," Alonso told reporters. "The pneumothorax is gone more or less but I have some rib fractures, so because of that there are risks of driving because F1 is a very unique sport, unique position in the car and (because of) the G-forces, the fracture could move into the lungs."
Alonso walked away from the crash, in which his McLaren was launched into a horrific series of high-speed barrel rolls after contact with Esteban Gutierrez's Haas before eventually coming to rest against a barrier upside-down in a mangled heap.
Though shaken, he was initially given all-clear by doctors and flew home to Spain. "Monday (after Australia GP), I had a little bit overall pain but nothing too serious," Alonso told reporters at the Sakhir circuit. "And then I flew back, I arrive in Spain and the pain was similar though a little bit more."
A subsequent CT scan then revealed the extent of his injuries. The 34-year-old's participation in the next race in China is in doubt and will depend on the outcome of another medical test scheduled in the coming days.
"It's not 100 per cent. There will be another test that I need to do in the next eight or 10 days, so after that test the FIA will evaluate again as they did now." McLaren reserve Stoffel Vandoorne will step in for Alonso this weekend.
The 24-year-old Belgian is currently preparing for a season in the Japanese Super Formula series and will make his Grand Prix debut on Sunday.
This is the second straight year that Alonso has been forced to miss a race. Last year, he sat out of the season-opening Australian Grand Prix after suffering a concussion in a mysterious accident in pre-season testing.
Alonso left Ferrari to return to McLaren last year, but reliability and performance issues with new engine supplier Honda's power units left him and teammate Jenson Button mired at the back of the grid.
The team have taken a step forward in competitiveness and reliability this year, however, with Button and Alonso qualifying just outside the top ten a fortnight ago in Australia.
The Spaniard, who has won 32 races in his career, last stood on the top step of the podium nearly three years ago at his home Spanish Grand Prix.

Absolutely first rate ! Knowing the staff and owners adds to the experience of standard extreme quality and portion. Service was impeccable and attentive. Extraordinarily well run team oriented operation.

Took a first date here since I heard the food and service was outstanding. Staff was very attentive and we were given a more private table in the back of the restaurant close to the open kitchen. We both ordered a salad and shared the steak and it was one of the best steaks Ive had in Miami.

This is one of the best steak places in South Florida however can be packed with challenged servers. The quality of the bread is superb as are the steaks.

I am a South Beach local I love the food at Prime 112 but last night the service was the worst ever. I was treated bad along with my girl friends. The waitress was upset about bringing us drinks our glasses where empty. She was so rude and unhappy with her job. She also did not count the money right and accused us of under tipping, She recounted and

Food was delicious! Staff very attentive to our large party of 12. Would go back again.

We were 4 for dinner & 1 person was late for about 20 minutes. Although the restaurant was practically empty, since it was an early dinner reservation, they did not allow us to sit at our table until the late party arrived. They would only offer us to sit at the bar or take a table outside. The hostess/receptionist was very rude and seemed to be more interested being on the phone than attending to clients. I complained to the manager and he was completely unhelpful, repeatedly saying that this was the policy of the restaurant. His rationale for having this policy was to avoid disruptions at the kitchen resulting from orders being placed from tables at different times due to additional orders being placed by late arriving guests. I found it interesting that this supposedly fine restaurant would be more concerned about the work flow of the kitchen than about pleasing their patrons. Also, I was surprised to see that there were no tablecloths on the tables. I only saw one table in the whole restaurant that had tablecloth. It was a table that was tucked away in a corner on the far end of the restaurant. I guess this is the table they reserve for their ""A list"" patrons. Food was great, but extremely pricey! Our waiter was pretty good, which almost made up for the initial bad experience. I don't plan to ever come back to this restaurant. I suggest that if you are looking for a good steak and good service in Miami Beach, you go to Smith & Wollensky instead

I try to stay away from bread but wow theres was great. This is a good spot, its hard to get in without reservations so book ahead. Theres a historic hotel ontop and the scene is always buzzing. Recommended.

Finally we found a reservation at 7:30pm after trying for several wks and refusing to eat at 11 pm.The valet parking was $20 ,and greetings at the door were proper ,we were seated rather fast considering the place was full.
Our dinner was ok,the lobster bisque was enough for 2 ,maybe 3 people,and it had a generous amount of lobster meat and had a great flavor and consistency, the Jumbo Lump Crab Cake was kind of plain ,it really tasted like chicken.We both ordered fillet mignon and they came fine, I did not found a significant difference between the 8 oz and the 12 oz,beef was standard or at the most select but not prime .We shared the Dulce De Leche Bread Pudding ,and we were both disappointed by the appearance,the texture and the taste ,it was a bad dish ,the ice cream was ok, as well as the espresso.This the kind of place I think is okay to go once but I am not planning in retuirning any time soon,I think they are plenty of better choices in Miami like Red,Gothan,Tuscan,Ruth Chris, with way better real prime steaks.

Ok, I have dined at Prime One Twleve manyyyy many time. And my family has dined there for years, I felt compelled to write a review after just being fed up.
I will give credit where credit is due - the food at this place is amazing. And I am a very picky eater and think that I have a pretty mature and experience palette. And Im saying the food here is veryyy good. BUT, this is the MAJOR draw back of this place, the service that you receive at the front of the house is just HORRIBLE. I have never had any problem what so ever with any waiter. The wiaters have all been excellent. BUT be prepared if you go to get treated like crappp by the hostess' at this joint. I mean they are so rude it is incredible.
Unless you are a movie star, singer, athlete...someone famous, or someone with money that they can recognize, expect them to treat you like dirt. Personally I dont really understand why they are so rude, after all they are ONLY the hostess...I mean they WORK there, they dont own the place.
Many ppl no longer think Prime One Twelve is worth going to only because of the aggravation you will have to deal with. There are a 100 wonderful restaurants on the beach that serve amazing food. If they dont up their ante at the restaurant with their service from the moment you walk in. I can pretty much guarantee they'll start to loose alot of money. I will not be going back anytime soon, it is very expensive there, and when I am spending that type of money I expect to get the best of both food and service.
As I said, great food HORRIBLE service. Be prepared to be treated like a dog..... unless ur famous that is.

a party of 20 people who had to call their 'events planner' to schedule the dinner and sign a contract for this large party. she never called only wanted to dialogue through emails which is impersonal. the fixed menu was not flexible and could not be changed. when our conference was running late, i called to delay reservation time from 7pm to 730. they said they could not and that we had to be done by promptly 930pm. which was a lie (i'll get to that shortly). so we rushed our conference to get there on time since we wanted to have the time w/ our folks. when we got there they said that the reservation was for 18 and was very inflexible to add 2 more seats even though we said we could 'sqoosh' together. we had to speak to the manager to communicate how the waiter was insulting our guests. many were from europe. the food was a prix fix menu and we could not deviate from the menu. we only had to speak to manager to add a few changes to accomodate some dietary issues. unreal! even though we spent $4000 the service was poor. i felt that they didn't want our business. i know south beach is pretentious but we were paying $4000 and the service was poor, food average, and the overall attitude of the restaurant poor. we will never have an outing at any of the myles restaurant group again.

I wanted to try something different - and as I have said my friends are my test kitchen so I tested away. I made what I am calling - Browniewitchlettes - layered round 4 bite brownies with flavored buttercream filling. I made three flavors: meyer lemon buttercream, lime buttercream and caramel buttercream filling.
To begin I made a 1/2 sheet pan of my Triple chocolate brownie recipe (I doubled the recipe). A 1/2 sheet pan measures 21.5"X15". There is no need to adjust the baking time as these brownies are thinner than the ones that are made in an 8x8 pan. If you do not have a 1/2 sheet pan you can use two cookie sheets. Line the sheet pans with parchement paper with an inch hanging over the sides for easy removal. Allow the browies to cool completely before cutting and filling.
I used a basic buttercream recipe.
Buttercream Recipe
makes 6 cups
1 1/2 pounds of unsalted butter
9 cups of sifted powdered sugar. (sift after measuring)
Place butter into a stand mixture with 3 cups of powdered sugar. Start mixer on low speed until all the sugar is incorporated. Raise speed to medium and beat for 5 minutes until fluffy. Slowly add one cup of sugar at a time until all sugar is incorporated. Beat for an additonal 3 minutes until pale and fluffy.
Divide buttercream into 3 bowls. For each flavor add 1 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice, 1 1/2 lime juice and 1 1/2 cooled caramel sauce.
Cut cooled brownies into circles using a 2 inch round cutter. Pipe or spread buttercream on brownies. Pipe additonal butterncream on the top of the brownies along with some lemon or lime zest or some caramel sauce. Place in the refrigerator for at least one hour. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

|Lemon buttercream filled brownies
|Lime buttercream filled brownies
When I arrived for the party right before kick-off with the platter we immediately placed it on the buffet table. By half-time there were only crumbs left! Needless to say they were a huge hit. You can use any flavor that you want - in addition to the flavors that I used you can use peppermint, rose water, spearmint - experiment.

How to Burn M4As to DVDby Joshua Laud
If you are running low on space on your computer or you want to backup your files, you can burn files to blank DVDs. M4A files are audio files, typically created by iTunes when you rip your CD collection to your computer. If you want to burn M4A songs to backup DVDs, you can use the inbuilt Windows disc burning software.
Locate the M4A files you want to burn. Highlight them all and press "Ctrl"+"C" to copy them.
Insert a blank DVD into your disc burner.
Click "Burn files to data disc."
Enter a name for the disc and click "Mastered" in the "Show formatting options" list. Click "Next."
Press "Ctrl"+"V" to copy the files to the burn area. Click "Burn to disc." You have now burnt your M4A files to DVD.

I say it is an easy way for spectators to become participants in the Games. These shiny souvenirs are fun to look at, easy to carry, and really not that expensive to collect. Sponsors hand them out like popcorn, and the local organizing committee makes a significant amount of revenue from licensing the Olympic images.
Official pins must have one of the following three marks in order to qualify: 1) Olympic rings, 2) the LOC symbol (in Vancouver it is called the Anok-Shok) or 3) an image of one of the Games' mascots.
Personally, I enjoy the opportunity to use my lapel pins to engage a stranger in conversation, or to put a smile on the face of a young boy or girl when they take home their very first piece of Olympic jewelry.
There is an unofficial protocol to pin trading. It should always be done in the spirit of fun (not profit) and no one should feel bullied in to the bargain. Some traders carry big shiny pins (called "lures") that draw attention to themselves and the "keepers" are quickly put in the pocket. "Traders" are usually something you have two (or more) of, and "sweeteners" are non-official pins that you can use to up the offer to get the pin you really want. Kids like collecting the mascots, business people try to gather as many sponsor pins as they can, and the athletes and media often trade among themselves because they are the only ones allowed into the restricted areas like the village or venues. My wife likes all shiny pins, so what I lack in numbers, I make up for in "bling." It's an Olympic hobby I wouldn't trade for the world.
