Oracle Open World (OOW) has become an awe-inspiring event: with the consolidation of annual conferences for Oracle, Siebel, Peoplesoft and JD Edwards, OOW now brings together over 40,000 people, filling all three Moscone Convention Center buildings, plus several hotels. Heck, Oracle even got San Fran to close off the road that runs between North and South Moscone, the first time that was ever done. I imagine that act must have greatly boosted Larry Ellison's popularity with Bay Area commuters.
Awe-inspiring and quite overwhelming: attend OOW and you enter a very unnatural world of harsh lighting, frigid air conditioning, and lots and lots of people walking around with the same bags, the same name badges swinging from their necks, the same look of determination as they make their way either to the next session of interest. And then there is the loud, frenetic exhibition hall (actually, two separate halls this year), where the objective seems to be to gather as many t-shirts, tote bags and a multitude of other throw-away give-aways that companies have deemed will draw participants to their booths. Of course, there are also the magicians, the mugglers, the masseurs, the mini-arcade games, the barristas, and rarely but still occasionally the scantilly clad attractive women who no doubt are also ace PL/SQL developers. It's like a circus for otherwise sophisticated, highly technical people.
For the vendors, it's a numbers game: how many badges can we scan so that we have a fat list of leads to pursue after the show? It is a fairly indiscriminate process. For example, when I was about to do my theater presentation on code testing, the magician Quest hired would do his tricks and then draw people to the booth with the promise of a free t-shirt, and a raffle of $10,000 to take place on Wednesday afternoon (you have to be wearing your shirt to win). Nothing subtle there, and no mention of my name, what I did, what I would talk about. Seemd kind of odd (and for some of my presentations, we did actually let people know I would be speaking),but it works just fine. Anyway, it's not like this isn't an already qualified audience: you wouldn't be walking the floor there unless you had some sort of interest in Oracle technology.
In any case, I think that some graduate students could write some very interesting PhD theses on the human dynamics revealted at this show. I can still recall an OOW from years past, at which a company with the booth next to that of RevealNet was giving out beanie babies in exchange for people filling out a detailed, 6-page personal history for marketing analysis purposes. Attendees were lined up 5 layers deep to hand over their details in exchange for a toy they could buy for $5. Very very strange...
Anyway, Wednesday afternoon rolls around and the crowd assembles for the drawing of three names for three checks ($2500, $2500, $5000 -- and your name goes back into the pot after you win, so you can theoretically win more than once. Forget theoretical! In 2005, a very lucky guy had his named pulled TWICE!): a veritable sea of grey ToadWorld t-shirts. That was incredible and you can get a sense of it by clicking here (watch out: 65MB file).
Well, knowing that this was going to be my universe for the next five days, I started off my trip to the San Fran area by heading outdoors on the Saturday before, in a beautiful park in the San Jose area. I gulped in the very clean air amongst towering redwood trees, along with my sister-in-law, Carmen, and a nephew and niece. I then stayed over at Carmen's place on Saturday night. On Sunday morning, I strolled into the main conference hotel, the Marriott, where the friendly fellow at the front desk told me that I had been scheduled to arrive the night before, so they cancelled my reservation and the hotel was now sold out (as was, likely, every other hotel for the surrounding 10 miles). Not a very nice piece of news, and all my fault! But we worked it out, and I did stay at the Marriott the whole time (thank you, Kathleen, thank you, thank you). Very nice hotel, excellent fitness center, and only one truly bizarre experience:
It was 10 PM on Wednesday night, back from Quest's special premiere event for ToadWorld. I was working on my laptop, with Johnny Cash explaining why he wears black seeping out of my speakers, when I realized that I was also listening to the sounds of a very distressed woman out in the hallway somewhere. Beaten and collapsing, calling weakly for help? Horrible sounds. I grabbed my phone, my card key, opened my door, and looked up and down the hallway, ready to help. No one there. And then I realized that all the noise was coming from the room across the hall. It wasn't a woman in distress I was listening to, it was the sound of a woman pretending to have a really good time. It was the soundtrack of a porno film, with the volume turned up to the max. Argh......
I called the front desk and asked them to deal with it. Ten minutes later, a security guard was knocking on my neighbor's door. "Sir? Sir? You must turn down the volume on your TV." He said this and knocked loudly several times. I went over to the keyhole to watch. For the next 5 minutes or so, he pleaded with the person in the room to turn down the TV, but there was no response. Finally he opened the door, peeked in, quickly came back out, again calling "Sir? Sir?" Then he finally called someone on his phone, probably his superior. "The customer is lying on the bed, knocked out," he says in a hushed voice, "and completely exposed." Silence as he listens. Then: "Yes, yes, what do you think I'm going to do? I'll go in there and turn it off." And finally, he did. Ah, the joys of attending Oracle Open World.
OK, enough of my meandering thoughts, here are some of my highlights from the show:
* Quest announced availability of Toad 9.0, a substantial upgrade to the 8.6 version, with a powerful single editor that replaces the SQL editor, Proc Editor and Offline Text Editor. They crammed something like 153 separate enhancements into the product. I continue to be amazed at the pace with which the Toad development team can add solid, useful, well-designed features to what was already the best PL/SQL IDE on the planet.
* Live penguin steals Larry's show. Larry Ellison's keynote was, I thought, mostly a rehash of previous keynotes (Unbreakable Linux, grid, RAC, finally got it right, really cool stuff, etc.). Then he announced his cleverly masked plan to squash Red Hat by offering support for Linux at half the Red Hat price. And to celebrate, out came a live penguin. Aw, it was so cute. That deeply educational moment was followed by quick videos of each CEO of the major sponsoring companies (AMD, HP, IBM, Sun, etc.) telling us how fantastic Oracle technology was and how much it had helped them. I was totally convinced. But mostly what I thought was: Wow, Larry didn't really have all that much to say this year, if he needed to fall back on live animals and video clips of talking heads. Regardless, he is still my hero. After all, without Larry and PL/SQL, I would be, let's see, well, maybe I would have written a popular book about Java. Probably did in some alternative universe, where I am the Guru of Squiggly Brackets.
* This was the best and more important OOW for me in many years. Quest announced availability of Quest Code Tester for Oracle, the testing tool on which I have been working hard, really hard, extra super-duper hard, for the last year. Quest Code Tester 184.108.40.206 is a completely free version, with commercial, trial and freeware versions arriving in February 2007. You can download it from www.ToadWorld.com (click on the Downloads tab). This is one very cool piece of technology. If you write PL/SQL code, I strongly suggest you check out Code Tester. I did a bunch of theater presentations on the tool and received lots of very positive feedback (or maybe they were just all excited about their t-shirts).
* Beyond Code Tester, I did four presentations, including two back-to-back talks on Thursday morning on error management and test driven development. Very friendly and appreciative audiences. I also was the recipient of the Oracle Magazine PL/SQL Developer of the Year for 2006, which means I will soon receive a very tasteful piece of nicely engraved Lucite. I will be honored to place it next to the Oracle Magazine PL/SQL Developer of the Year for 2002 piece of Lucite on the shelf in my office. No, truly, it is quite an honor and I very much appreciate the support and recognition I have received from Oracle Magazine and Oracle Technology Network over the years. On Sunday night, OMag sponsored a dinner for awardees, Oracle ACEs and others. I met Eddy Awad (OMag Blogger of the Year!) for the first time, saw Tom Kyte again (met him for the first time just a week or two ago at the KC OUG conference) and reconnected with a whole bunch of other top notch technologists, in particular the illustrious Bryn Llewellyn, PL/SQL Product Manager.
* Other exciting announcements at the show: Quest has launched ToadWorld, mentioned above, which is a fantastic portal for all things Toad, plus a ton of resources for anyone writing PL/SQL code. I've got an Experts Corner, as well as a blog, at ToadWorld, so come and visit: www.ToadWorld.com.
And that's not all!
* ODTUG (Oracle Developer Tools User Group) announced OPP2007, the second nothing-but-PL/SQL conference ever to be held. I sponsored the first one back in November 2005 (organized by the wonderful folks at Your Conference Connection) and it was so popular, ODTUG agreed to take over the main sponsorship of future, annual PL/SQL conferences. This pleases me to no end. I have tremendous respect for ODTUG, and much admiration for the hard work of its volunteer board. It is going to be held on February 28-March 1 out in San Mateo. I'll be there, as will Bryn Llewellyn and Christopher Racicot, Development Manager for Oracle PL/SQL, along with many other excellent PL/SQL educators. I hope you can join. Click here for more information and to register.
* As always, the best part of OOW was meeting people who had read my books or attended my trainings and felt that my work had made a big difference in their professional careers. I don't mind helping companies improve their software quality and perhaps even make more money, but I am most jazzed about helping individual programmers lead better and more satisfying lives. Also very gratifying: after my talk on error management on Thursday morning (8-9 AM!), the young guy taking care of the audio visual equipment told me that he'd done some programming in the past. He'd also been listening to talks all week long and this was the first presentation that he could actually understand and get something useful from. Very cool.
* I decided on the spur of the moment during one of my talks to launch a global Campaign to Implement a Boolean Overloading for DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (CIBODOPL). Sure, it is a bit silly, but silly can be good in our often all-too-serious jobs, and such an effort might actually move this enhancement request towards the top of the list and just get it done (in Oracle12, anyway). I can't imagine it is going to take much of an effort on the part of the PL/SQL development team. So soon, soon (not yet) you will be able to visit CIBODOPL.net or some similar location and add your name and support to this campaign. You can also tell us on this website what small, annoying feature or lack thereof is on the top of your list to fix/add to PL/SQL.

It�s been almost three years since a 7.0 magnitude earthquake rocked Haiti. Thousands are still living under blue canopies, said Vickie Black, who has visited the area several times in the last 12 years.
She is a member of the Caribbean Christian Club, a nonprofit organization established in 1997 to assist people in Haiti.
Rising above the little blue tarps that dot the community located near St. Marc is a church that has been updated and furnished through the fundraising efforts of the club. People in Cleveland County contribute to the effort every Christmas by supporting a gift-wrapping booth at Cleveland Mall.
�We have people who come every Christmas,� Black said. �The people who have supported us � that�s where the money went � to build the church which houses a medical clinic and a well for the community. It�s a tremendous blessing to them.�
The fresh-water well and the clinic is helping to prevent deaths from cholera. There is also a school there for 70 students.
Black visited the church recently for a conference. A band from another church in Port-au-Prince provided music during the event. Hearing the musicians inspired the people in the community.
�They want a band of their own,� Black said. �They are studying music but have no instruments.�
She is trying to collect instruments for them, hoping that people who have old band instruments gathering dust will donate them to the people in Haiti.
They are asking for four trombones, four trumpets, two alto saxophones, a tenor saxophone, two clarinets, a tuba, three transverse flutes, two French horns, a bass guitar, a solo guitar, a professional keyboard, three microphones, a violin, batteries and sound equipment such as cables, mixers and speakers.
Black said people may wonder why musical instruments are necessary to people who don�t even know where their next meal is coming from. She said food is always going to be in short supply, but the instruments will be there as a symbol of the gifts they have received from people who care.
�They have nothing,� Black said. �The things we take for granted, they don�t have. These instruments would be a wonderful addition to their worship service, and a great boost to have these instruments that nobody else has. It will also mean a lot to the individuals who will be playing the instruments that they will be selected and trusted to do those things.�
If you have an old band instrument to donate, call 704-418-0418.

Crumbs from the Table of Joy
From the pen of the winner of the 2009 Pulitzer Prize for Drama! The Crump family is adrift and in trouble. Widowed Godfrey is under the spell of Sweet Father Divine, while his teen daughters, Ernestine and Ermina, immerse themselves in the illusions of Hollywood to escape racial prejudice. But things change quickly when free-spirited Aunt Lily shows up: Godfrey remarries a white woman, Ermina discovers boys, and Ernestine is torn between Communism and bebop! Playwright Lynn Nottage received the 2009 Pulitzer Prize winner for her play Ruined.
An L.A. Theatre Works full-cast performance featuring (in alphabetical order): Deidrie Henry as Ernestine Crump; Russell Hornsby as Godfrey Crump; Tinashe Kajese as Ermina Crump; Kate Steele as Gerte; and Charlayne Woodard as Lily Ann Green. Directed by Seret Scott. Recorded before a live audience at the Skirball Cultural Center, Los Angeles, in December 2009.
Crumbs From the Table of Joy, by acclaimed playwright Lynn Nottage, winner of the 2009 Pulitzer Prize for Drama for Ruined, is a funny and touching story of a recently widowed African-American man, Godfrey Crumb, who, beset by grief and turning to a new religion, leaves Florida in 1950 and moves to culturally shifting Brooklyn with his two teenage daughters. There, the family finds love, prejudice, politics, pain, and sweet jazz.
This poetic urban play of endurance and redemption is performed in front of a live audience by a dynamic cast of capable theater veterans, including Russell Hornsby, Deidrie Henry, and Tinashe Kajese.

Bail Set for Recycling Center Owner Accused in $7 Million Conspiracy Involving Millions of Pounds of Aluminum Cans
RIVERSIDE – Bail of $300,000 was set today for a Riverside County recycling center owner arrested along with two employees last week by special agents with the Attorney General's office for bilking the state's beverage container recycling program out of $7 million. Bail was set at $30,000 each for the two employees.
"These people pretended to be recycling California aluminum cans when they were really importing tons of cans from Arizona, which are not eligible for California's recycling refunds," Attorney General Edmund G. Brown Jr. said. "They brazenly defrauded the state's successful recycling program."
Howard Leveson, 68, owner of Perris Valley Recycling in Perris, Riverside County; Jose Barragan, 35, the center's general manager, and Susie Ambriz-Molina, 25, an office worker, were arrested October 12. Leveson was also charged with illegal possession of an assault weapon.
They face a total of 18 felony counts on charges including recycling fraud, grand theft and conspiracy. If convicted of all charges, they could each spend seven years in prison.
Special agents with the Attorney General's office, working with the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle), conducted the investigation into Perris Valley Recycling with the help of the Riverside County Sheriff's Department. The Attorney General's office is prosecuting the case. CalRecycle oversees the state's beverage container recycling program.
A search of Leveson's home and business recovered $50,973 in cash and an Uzi assault rifle. In addition, Leveson's assets and those of his business were frozen, including $4.2 million in bank accounts.
From February 2009 until July 2010, Perris Valley Recycling collected as much as 10,000 pounds per day in aluminum cans, far more than comparable facilities, which average about 500 pounds per day. The unusually high volume indicated the possibility that out-of-state containers were being brought to the facility.
In Arizona, aluminum is sold only for its scrap value. California, however, has the added incentive of the California Refund Value (CRV) deposit, which pays $1.57 for a pound of used aluminum cans.
Investigators estimate Perris Valley Recycling took in 4.4 million pounds of cans trucked from Arizona, then illegally claimed as much as $7 million in reimbursement from the California Beverage Container Recycling Fund.
As a deterrent to such fraud, recycling centers are required to report to CalRecycle purchases of more than 250 pounds of aluminum CRV material. According to investigators, Perris Valley Recycling hid the size of incoming loads by creating multiple weight tickets for trucks coming in with loads larger than 250 pounds, making it appear they were many individuals with smaller loads.
Over the past five months, 20 people have been arrested for making deliveries of out-of-state containers to the Perris center, whose slogan is "It's Not Trash, It's Cash." Perris Valley Recycling remains open, however CalRecycle continues to conduct inspections and has placed restrictions on the center's reimbursement claims.
In California, consumers pay CRV at the checkout stand when purchasing beverages in bottles or cans. When the empty container is redeemed at one of California's more than 2,000 recycling centers, the CRV is returned to the consumer. Recycling centers recoup the CRV from the state and then make money by reselling the materials for scrap value. When an out-of-state can or bottle is fraudulently redeemed in California, the program loses money.
"By cracking down on fraud, we send an unmistakable message that criminal activity that undermines California's beverage container recycling program will not be tolerated," said CalRecycle Director Margo Reid Brown. "CalRecycle investigators will continue to work with law enforcement to put a stop to recycling fraud and hold accountable those responsible."
California's program began in 1987. Last year, 82 percent of the CRV cans and bottles purchased in the state were returned for recycling. California is one of 11 states with a bottle and can redemption program.
To learn more about CalRecycle and the California Beverage Container Recycling Program, visit http://www.calrecycle.ca.gov/. CalRecycle contact: Mark Oldfield (916) 319-9942 or (916) 616-9683 (cell) or firstname.lastname@example.com.
The suspects' booking photographs are available upon request.

O, glory be! Life had gotten a little bit too stale for California journalists -- pensions, budgets, tax initiatives, numbers, more numbers -- when the news arrived at the bar, like an old friend you'd almost forgotten, but badly missed.
Cruz Bustamante might be running for Congress.
Everyone knows that name.
U.S. & World
The former lieutenant governor and legislative leader may run for an open seat in the Central Valley that includes his hometown of Dinuba, according to the Fresno Bee.
Why is this good news? Because while some politicians make politics look easy, Bustamante always had a special talent for making politics look like brain surgery performed by a guy who wasn't quite sure where the brain is, exactly.
Who can forget his unbelievably awkward, Democratic-ally disloyal campaign to replace Gov. Gray Davis during the recall, with its delicious "No on Recall, Yes on Bustamante" slogan? For those who love cognitive dissonance, it doesn't get any better than that.
Bustamante may still be completing sentences that he first started speaking during the 2003 gubernatorial debate, when he seemed to determine to speak so slowly that every syllable could be understood. The debate, of course, was dominated by European-accented immigrants -- Arianna Huffington and Arnold Schwarzenegger -- who spoke so quickly it was difficult to understand them. Lesson: in politics, having your words understood is vastly overrated.
And for those who want to go back further, there were Bustamante's campaign finance troubles, which led to him being sued by the Fair Political Practices Commission. Or the time he uttered the "n" word -- yes, that "n" word -- during a Black History Month speech.
More recently, his name was floated to be -- this is not a joke -- ambassador to India, prompting a wonderful Sacramento Bee editorial calling him "an international incident waiting to happen."
All that said, Bustamante had some successes as a legislator, and having a high-profile Congressman -- even one with an ability to put his foot in his mouth -- might help the Central Valley stay in the political conversation.
But if Bustamante makes the race, the clear winner will be journalists, who should get their digital voice recorders ready. This could be fun.

Because no one reads the newspaper, and SportsCenter's anchors are too perky for this early in the morning, Deadspin combs the best of the broadsheets and internets to bring you everything you need to know to start your day.
•Add Austin Collie to the overflowing Colts injury report, after a hit that's going to engender a lot of discussion today (even though it shouldn't). One too many for the Colts, as they fell to the Eagles. Andy Reid is now 12-0 after the bye week in his career. Speaking of Andy Reid...
•There's always one kid in any youth sports competition who looks at least 8 years older than everyone else. In 1971, that kid was 13-year-old "Andrew Ried." And...hey, is that a full mustache?
•The BCS has always been about "be high in the preseason polls, and just don't lose." How else to explain TCU remaining third despite demolishing Utah? (Oh, right, the non-BCS conference thing too.)
•Two months ago, Kevin Durant received a top-secret invitation to scrimmage with President Obama at the White House. Might this explain both Durant's .394 FG% and the results of the midterm elections? I think it might.
•You can really learn a lot about a team's testicular fortitude by how hard they try when the season appears to have slipped away. Brett Favre and the Vikings did themselves proud with a comeback victory; the Cowboys, not so much. (Even LeBron knows what's up.)
Good morning. Hope your weekend was a fine one.

After the tornado outbreak on April 27th, 2011, people across Alabama have been more proactive when it comes to storm safety. Many are getting a little help from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Debra Purdy didn't think the day would ever come.
"I'm very excited. The safety factor thrills me," said Purdy.
After waiting for more than a year for a FEMA grant, a storm shelter is being installed at her home in Enterprise.
"In this neighborhood we have a lot of older people. I live alone here myself. I got an eight-man shelter so my neighbors as well as I could fit in it," said Purdy.
Storm Shelters of Northwest Florida installed nearly 300 other shelters within a hundred miles of the wiregrass last year. Some can hold up to 20 people. The underground shelters are made of fiberglass and anchored with concrete and buried.
"You're dirt is going to be the ultimate protection for the body of the shelter. The doors are reinforced and impact tested to withstand a direct hit. We actually had one of these models April 27 in northern Alabama that got hit with an F5 tornado. There literally was no damage at all to the shelter," said Kevin Julian, Storm Shelters of Northwest Florida.
The doors have a multi-point locking system, and they are tested at Texas Tech's Wind Science and Engineering Research Center.
"They've got to be designed where the door can't come open during a tornado. Different doors are built with different materials. The biggest thing is they've got to pass the test," said Julian.
When the ultimate test comes, Purdy and her neighbors will be ready.
"All of us around here have weather radios. They know when the time comes they can come straight over," said Purdy.
Be sure to have a flashlight, it can get dark underground.

Just what Robert Guerrero was thinking remains a mystery, at least for now. He's not saying and, after the bonehead move that got him busted with a gun at a New York airport, that's probably a good thing.
Dumb doesn't even begin to describe packing heat for a trip to the Big Apple to promote his May 4 fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. As tough as the New York media can be at times, it wasn't necessary to bring a .40-caliber Smith & Wesson pistol in case things got real nasty.
The good news is that the Mayweather fight is still on, and Guerrero remains a live dog. The bad news is that the threat of possible jail time hanging over his head may be one distraction too many in a fight where Guerrero must be at his very best.
Forgive Mayweather if he's spent the last few nights at his Big Boy Mansion in Las Vegas laughing with his yes men about the whole thing. He may beat up or berate women if they give him a rough time, but so far he seems to be pretty careful - with good reason - when it comes to guns.
The Guerrero camp is doing its best to tone things down, and you have to believe the fighter really wasn't aware of New York's tough gun laws when he packed his pistol - legally registered in his home state of California - in a locked box and put it in his suitcase for his trip. That's not surprising because fighters in general tend not to be up on local laws unless they find themselves breaking one.
I mean, the guy told the ticket agent at the JFK airport counter that he had the gun in his suitcase when he checked in. That by itself may keep him out of jail in a state so stringent about gun control that former New York Giants receiver Plaxico Burress was sentenced to three years in prison for shooting himself with his own unregistered weapon.
At the very least, though, Guerrero ruined a great story line for the bout. He was supposed to be the good guy in this fight, a humble and hard-working boxer who praises God in every other sentence, up against a thug who spent more than two months in jail last summer for assaulting his ex-girlfriend while two of their children watched.
Until last Thursday, he played the role well. I talked to him a few weeks earlier and he was full of confidence that he could handle a big fight and everything that surrounds it.
"I've been preparing for this throughout my career," he said. "I know the media is going to be crazy - everything is going to be crazy. But I'm ready for this."
Turns out he wasn't quite as ready as he thought. He didn't have enough sense to leave his gun - unloaded, along with the three magazines he had in his bag - home, and he didn't have enough sense not to bring a gun registered in California to a state where gun control laws are among the toughest in the nation.
"I hope that Mr. Guerrero fights better than he thinks," Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said in a statement. "For anyone who hasn't gotten the message, let me be crystal clear. You cannot bring an unlicensed weapon - loaded or unloaded - into this county or this city. And if you do, you will be arrested and face felony charges."
Unfortunately for Guerrero, the questions he gets over the next five weeks will not just be about how he fought for years to get his big break and now plans to capitalize on it. Writers will want to know what kind of guy packs a gun for business trips as much as they will want to know his plan for Mayweather.
That's too bad, because up until last week there wasn't a lot not to like about Guerrero. This is a guy who a few years back gave up a title because his wife was sick with leukemia and he wanted to be at her bedside trying to nurse her back to health rather than train for a fight.
It cost Guerrero more than a year of his career, but his wife, Casey, beat her disease and is now healthy. He would become a national spokesman for the bone-marrow match organization "Be the Match."
"People ask how are you going to deal with the media this and media that under the microscope," Guerrero told me a few weeks ago. "Nothing compares to the pressure of what my wife went through and standing by her side. Nothing compares to stressing and not knowing what's going on and watching her go through chemo, radiation and bone marrow transplant surgeries."
Maybe not, but facing a possible four years in prison on a felony gun charge with the biggest fight of his career coming up has to come close. The pressure of a big fight is immense to begin with - especially if it is your first - and now Guerrero must enter the ring knowing he has a court date in New York just 10 days later.
He was already a big underdog against Mayweather, but at least Guerrero was someone you could root for. Promoters counted on that to help sell the part of the pay-per-view that Mayweather and his bad boy persona can't deliver.
Guerrero's story is still pretty good, but now you have to wonder: Is he the compassionate and religious man who spent all those nights at the hospital, or is he some kind of loose cannon who can't rest comfortably at night without his pistol by his side?
My guess is he's the first, a good man who made a bad mistake. I still believe in Guerrero's upside, but how he handles this in the next few weeks will likely tell the story.
No, dumb doesn't come close to describing what Guerrero did.
But it's a pretty good place to start.

I have been going to fitness incentive for over 20 years now. What had started as a way to kill a few hours while my children were in preschool, has turned into a lifestyle. Everyone is always so pleasant and there truly is something for everyone at FI. Its nice to walk into a gym and have people say hello to you by name. It feels like family there.

Where ever you are, stop what you're doing and check the place out...you won't be disappointed. I promise you that.

FI is a one stop gym that can service all your needs in one place! I have belonged to many different fitness centers over the last 35 years and I can honestly none have come close to FI. The trainers; the equipment; the atmosphere; classes; services offered are all top notch! I travel 30 minutes one way switching from a gym located literally a 5 minute walk from my home to workout at FI. I think the latter speaks volumes.
Always a friendly face and very helpful staff. I always feel comfortable at any time of day and love the available class options!
I have been going to fitness incentive for about 15 years and couldn't be happier. The people that work there are so friendly and helpful and they keep the facility very clean. The variety of classes they offer are great!!
The gym is incredible and has so many perks along with the membership!
Tremendously caring, knowledgeable, friendly staff who regularly go above and beyond to insure that as many of the reasonable requests, needs and desires of their members as possible are met in the most expeditious and conscientious way. The facilities are maintained with the highest degree of cleanliness and great attention is constantly paid to providing the latest and greatest in equipment and class offerings. Its such a pleasure to be a proud member of such an outstanding fitness center which has no equals.
Great people, great equipment, friendly atmosphere. No where better to get a workout.
I am in love with this gym! The biggest issue looking for a gym for me would be the daycare. Their daycare is absolutely amazing. I haven't met one person there that myself or kids didn't love. I especially am so thankful for Danielle. Tonight my one-year-old was tired, cranky and teething really bad. When I came to get him she had him snuggled up on her lap comforting him just like I would. Any other gym this definitely wouldn't have happened. I have tried soooo many day cares and this one by far exceeds expectations. I highly recommend this gym just on their daycare alone.
Your gym by far is the best experience ever. From the moment you walk in, to the moment you leave just amazing. I love everything about this place down to the staff and cleaning crew.
Establishment is welcoming from the moment you enter the premises. Front desk receptionist are friendly, courteous and helpful. Instructors are skilled and very approachable. Love this home away from home.
There's just no comparison between fitness incentive and other options in the area.
Best gym ever! Best trainers, best instructors, best clientele! Love, love, love!
The best Fitness center I have ever joined...love the classes and instructors..it's friendly and clean...very professional

I ALWAYS feel so much better physically and mentally when I go to FI! The people, both staff and fellow members, are all in the same place - glad to be there! Hard not to feel good when that's all that surrounds you!
Love the classes - friendly staff - nice array of equipment - convenient hours - would definitely recommend everything included.

I love my gym and all the classes it provides!!!
I love fitness incentive. They are all around perfect. Classes.. machines etc
Fitness offers excellent classes with highly qualified instructors. But the reason I recommend so highly is because it is fairly obvious that the staff at FI enjoy working there and so it is easy to enjoy being a member in an environment where staff is content, including instructors, trainers, as well as the cleaning people and employees who greet us at the front desk. Whatever you're doing, keep doing it.
I have been a member for about 15 years......it has changed my life.
All of the equipment works, the facility is very clean, and so many classes are offered. I travel 20 minutes to get to FI... I have a gym two blocks away from me- tried it, but nothing compares to FI!
I think that FI is the cleanest gym I've ever been to and offers the most extensive choices of classes. Also, the people at the desk and the instructors I have dealt with are very helpful and eager to help. FI is a great gym and I'm very grateful it's right in my back yard here in Babylon Village!
Great atmosphere and classes.
Fitness Incenive is my second home. Excellent classes and excellent teachers.

Fitness Incentive is my favorite gym. They have a ton of different classes all day long and their instructors are always keeping up with fitness trends. I love how some classes are outside too. They also have a protein shake / coffee bar for after workout refreshments. I personally love the Pilates reformer classes from an amazing Pilates instructor and last, but certainly not least, free day care!
I LOVE Fitness Incentive!! It's my extended family. You get to know the staff, trainers and you meet your gym buddies! We help each other out. In good times and bad times, we laugh together, we cry together. There are so many gyms around the Babylon, West Babylon, and North Babylon areas. But there's nothing like Fitness Incentive! Thank You for everything you do to keep us motivated and improving the gym's atmosphere. Love you all.
Great people, great classes, great selection of classes and equipment.
This gym has everything!
Whenever I go I feel at home and not uncomfortable.
Absolutely LOVE everything about Fitness Incentive!
Best gym ever!
I started going to Fitness Incentive not too long ago and I love it! I chose this gym after meeting the sweet ladies in the nursery and the very friendly staff at the front desk. My one-year-old son Sam loves to come and play in the kids room! Each and every staff member I have come in contact with has been so friendly and professional! This gym is extremely clean, offers tons of classes, has a spa I can go…and offers free child care during my visit… Can not say enough good things!
"I think it is a truly unique gym because of the way I feel every day walking in the door. I'm made to feel so warmly welcomed, the wonderful staff, the great classes, the excellent instructors, the professionalism of all, and the really nice members I've met here. It has it all!"

There are a wide variety of classes offered at almost every hour of the day. The instructors are very good & experienced. The gym is always clean--there is literally always someone cleaning during the day & night. The staff is friendly. Other gym members are courteous. The equipment is constantly updated, as are the classes. In short, it's just a great place to work out & say hello to familiar people!
Fitness Incentives offers it all: great line up of classes, separate yoga and spin rooms, a Pilates studio etc. you name it they have it. The equipment is well maintained and the space is spotless. Their trainers are wonderful. You can find one that will help you reach your personal goals. The atmosphere in the gym is non judge mental. Not a muscle head gym, but there are hard core gym rats here too.
It's the best gym on the island and its my home away from home with my second family !!! I love how the gym is always getting new equipment that's state of the art of us to try. Most of all I love that it is just a part of my daily routine .

Everything about this gym is top of the line. From the trainers, to the nutritionist, to the equipment, and the cafe. The desk staff is pleasant always and the people who clean the gym go above and beyond.
After years of being a member, I continue to be impressed. Fitness Incentive remains a shining example of how a business should be run! A very positive place to be in the heart of the village!
I have been a Fitness Incentive member since 2000. My husband got me a pass there and it was the best decision ever. The staff is great, classes are wonderful and I have trained with Joe S since 2010. My health and the way I feel is contributed mainly to Fitness Incentive.
I love my classes, the instructors who give them and the wonderful people taking them with me. Couldn't be happier....a little sore, perhaps, but very happy
Great place to workout and everyone is focused on being fit. The staff is very helpful and always ready to help with insight and advice.
I've been a member of FI for over a decade, and it's a membership,that I use. I love the classes, the equipment, cleanliness, motivational newsletters, the hours, etc.
Fitness Incentive is a community of individuals that strive to get healthy and maintain fitness without the ego of competition. It's almost a family of like-minded people who want to be better, together. Never have I ever felt uncomfortable, self-conscious or worried that someone is looking at me which means a lot when starting your fitness journey.

The great classes, the great staff, the positive attitude, the cleanliness, and really listening to the requests of your members! There is no gym locally that comes close!
Joined this gym a year ago because of its state of the art equipment. Great variety, it has everything I need. It is owner operated and that makes it exceptional. Very customer oriented. Worth every penny!
What a great gym! I used to stick to a kickboxing gym and hot yoga studio- paying well over $170 a month in membership fees. This place was just what I needed to get back in shape after baby. Yes, the equipment is new and high tech- but the different classes that are offered are amazing. I try to switch it up everyday--yoga one day, step class the next. If you are looking for a change in your daily routine, FI offers it. Linda in the nursery is amazing with my infant son- it keeps my mind as ease knowing my son is being watched over while I enjoy an hour to myself.
Best gym! Great classes. Great members.
Such an amazing place! I have been a member for over 25 years. The owners, staff, classes, cleanliness, etc. are truly like no other. FI is my home away from home. I love everything about Fitness Incentive......
FI is like a second home. The staff is always welcoming and hospitable.
It's one of the best gyms around. None can compare!
Hands down the best gym anywhere. Great equipment, staff, classes, atmosphere and owners.
Constant upgrading and offering new challenges for the customer that no other gym/studio can compete with. It's the perfect way to start or end your day, and the staff makes the experience welcoming, inviting and a happy way to start your day!
Best classes and amount of classes I have ever seen at a gym. I live in San Diego where I am surrounded by gyms and I am yet to find anything that compares to FI.
I have belonged to many gyms over my lifetime having been into fitness since my teenage years! FI provides a comfortable yet professional atmosphere that provides many facets of self care all in one place! I travel 30 mins on a good day to come to FI which I think speaks for itself!
I love the atmosphere! Everyone is so nice! Equipment is very good and the classes are great too!!
My daily visit to Fitness Incentive is the best part of my day! I love my trainers to death and couldn't imagine a fitness routine without them.
