Bar in the Bay Area is Hula Hoops, located off 280 in a nicely renovated strip mall. The main seating area is open and they have a number of TVs where sports plays consistently. They also have a small stage where they have island-inspired musical performances several times per week. Food is mostly Hawaiian, with pizza also available for dinner.
The main seating area is nicely appointed but basically decorated. The small bar doesn't afford much in the way of seating either. But there's a space inside Hula Hoops that's a must-visit. You see, there's a small tiki lounge built by Bamboo Ben that has some lounge chairs and a few small tables. The decor in here is great, and because it's all closed off you'll feel more relaxed than in the main dining room.
When you can't make it the "top tier" tiki bars, you can sometimes find a little bit of paradise out in the suburbs. Just go into it with an open mind. And open eyes.


These Warrior QRL Pro Ice Hockey Pants will keep your youngster protected out on the ice, giving great protection without hindering mobility or comfort. They have a tailored pro fit to allow for natural play plus a drawstring fastening and internal belt and leg zips for a secure fit. There is a kidney guard and spine protector which includes Spinetek to offer superior protection along with a tailbone protector, thigh and hip pads and Wartech FNC liner, which wicks away moisture to keep the pad dry and is enhanced with Polygiene to prevent bacteria growing. Warrior branding completes the look.

Chimes of a Lost Cathedral (Hardback)
Janet Fitch (author)
After the events of The Revolution of Marina M., young Marina Makarova is pregnant and on her own, forced to eke out an existence in the Russian countryside and plotting her escape back to Petrograd.
When a train comes to town bearing none other than her estranged husband Genya--now a minor celebrity--and his ragtag agitprop troupe, Marina sees her way out.
But on her return to Petrograd, she finds the city not as she remembered it. Ravaged by two years of revolution, it is a lawless place of brigands and orphans, and Marina must take desperate measures to protect herself and her child.
From the beloved bestselling author of White Oleander, CHIMES OF A LOST CATHEDRAL is the sweeping, bold, and unforgettable story of a young woman's finding her strength and forging her own path amidst some of the most dramatic and devastating upheavals of the last century.
Publisher: Little, Brown & Company
"Shimmers with vital energy...The novel luxuriates in exotic period details...The Revolution of Marina M. is hard to put down."--Trine Tsouderos, Chicago Tribune
"Resplendent...Marina, a passionate, impressionable poet from an aristocratic family, gets swept up in young love and the Bolshevik movement."--Oprah.com
"A big, immersive novel for fans of Amor Towles's A Gentleman in Moscow."--Huffington Post
"Fitch narrows the Russian Revolution to one woman's perspective, crafting a gorgeous epic that's a must-read for historical fiction fans."--Frannie Jackson, Paste Magazine
"This is Fitch's most powerful narrative, beautifully and propulsively written...The reading experience genuinely does share the opulence and intimacy of the great Russian masterpieces."--Steve Donoghue, Christian Science Monitor
"An epic tale...In this relatable coming-of-age novel, Marina grapples with a changing world and struggles to find her place in it."--Nora Horvath, Real Simple
"Stunning and heartbreaking...When I finished reading, my heart ached. I'd fallen head-over-heels with Marina, with her stubborn will to live, with her wild desire and impractical decision making. I hurt when she hurt; I was in love when she was. This is the perfect cold-weather novel to lose yourself in...Just be sure to brace yourself, because your heart might break, too."--Angela Lashbrook, Nylon
"Fitch's first-person narrative is intensely intimate...As Marina comes of age, she is thrust into the spilled blood on the streets and the plight of the workers and artists...The author's passion seems to reside with Russia itself, exploring its intricate history and soul in good light and bad...Marina's identity changes and she becomes free to blaze into the future."--Erin Lewenauer, Minneapolis Star Tribune
"Fitch penetrates the heart and soul of her characters. Like Marina herself, Fitch is a poet, and one of the glories of her new novel is the shimmering beauty of language...Above all, Fitch is faithful to the Tolstoyan traditions of the Russian novel, writing about heroic events on an equally heroic scale. Remarkably, she catches and holds our interest...rewarding us with rich and provocative stories, compelling characters, and literary prose of the very highest order."--Jonathan Kirsch, Jewish Journal
"Janet Fitch presents this tumultuous epoch from the viewpoint of a passionate, resilient young woman...With heightened immediacy, Fitch's novel presents a richly described, on-the-street view of the revolution's transformative, often violent throes...The momentum rarely slackens. Fitch's cinematic storytelling and Marina's vibrant personality are standout elements in this dramatic novel."--Sarah Johnson, Booklist
"A captivating novel starring an unforgettable heroine, The Revolution of Marina M. shows you a side to the Russian Revolution you've never seen before."--Sadie Trombetta, Bustle
"An extraordinary coming-of-age tale...Marina is by turns adventurous, foolish, romantic, self-destructive, and courageous."--Jane Ciabattari, BBC.com
"Fitch captures the epic grandeur of Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy, situating her characters in the pages of authentic history. Yet she also infuses her characters with transgressive sexual energy...Readers of Tolstoy, Boris Pasternak, and Margaret Mitchell will thrill to this narrative of women in love during the cataclysm of war."--Barbara Conaty, Library Journal
"Incandescent...The brilliant Janet Fitch has written yet another powerful, kaleidoscopic novel."--Cynthia Bond, author of Ruby
"The Revolution of Marina M. takes us deep inside the Russian Revolution and lets us witness it through a pair of remarkable eyes. Marina is a female Zhivago - a poet who uses her intelligence, her passion, and her love of language to interpret and survive the political turmoil around her. Janet Fitch is a wonderful writer and this might be her best book."--David Ebershoff, author of The Danish Girl and The 19th Wife
"There's brilliance in this book: concept, structure, style...Read this novel for the passion of the main character, a girl becoming woman and poet with ten times the vitality and intellect of Scarlett O'Hara."--Sena Jeter Naslund, author of Ahab's Wife and Abundance, a Novel of Marie-Antoinette
"Ambitious, vivid, engrossing. Fitch puts flesh and bones on one of the most tumultuous times in human history, a vast canvas filled with the rising up the oppressed, na ve hope, abrupt reversals and crushing betrayals. The novel is a virtuoso rendition of the time, buoyed by Fitch's impeccable research and her bold, unforgettable prose."--Susan Sherman, author of If You Are There and The Little Russian
"In this lusty and intelligent novel, Fitch brilliantly entwines the blooming of a teenage girl with the bursting of a country, and tells their story with such intensity and urgency you can nearly hear the thundering hoofbeats of time and feel the shaking through the pages. This is an epic deserving comparison to the Russian masterworks -- not for its size, but for its scope, not for its subject, but for the sweep with which it meets it. Rarely have I ever known history to come so fully, fiercely alive."--Josh Weil, author of The Great Glass Sea
"A story of the insurgent politics of a woman's heart -- of whom and how she loves, of what governs, betrays, or becomes her. The beauty of this book broke me open. Janet Fitch is stunningly, startlingly talented."--Jill Alexander Essbaum, author of Hausfrau
PRAISE FOR THE REVOLUTION OF MARINA M.:
"Sprawling, immersive...There is plenty of action and drama...It's a pleasure to see Marina develop, her core character strengthening as she tries on new roles." --Steph Cha, USA Today
"Marina's unlikely bildungsroman proves so gripping that it's hard to put down...Fitch depicts [the Revolution] with devastating accuracy and imaginative power...sprawling, majestic." --Ani Kokobobo, LA Review of Books

This policy Fast Fact was originally published in February 2013 and recently re-loaded to our website.
Both science and public policy are best advanced based on impartial analysis of all the available evidence. No single study stands on its own, much less provides the definitive answers to policy questions on its own. This requires that scientists and policymakers consider all the evidence rather than simply select a few studies that fit their preconceived notions. The Obama administration's new universal pre-K proposal first announced in the State of the Union address comports conclusions drawn from a full review of the evidence, just as one would hope.
National Institute for Early Education Research was prepared to set the record straight so that debate can proceed with accurate information. Specifically, the report reviews the research related to four key issues regarding the pre-K proposal.
1. Does high-quality pre-K have lasting benefits?
2. What is the evidence for the $7 to $1 return on investment in pre-K?
universal approach to pre-K more effective?
4. Are large-scale public programs, including Head Start, effective?
