Sandwich Field Hockey Wins State Tournament Opening Round
By: Dan Crowley, October 31, 2013
Sandwich scored once in each half as they opened the MIAA Division1 South Sectional state tournament with a 2-0 first round victory over visiting 10th seeded Mansfield (13-5-1).
The seventh seeded Lady Knights (16-2-3) move on to face the winner of Friday's game between second seeded Walpole (17-0-1) and 15th seeded Westwood (9-4-5) in quarterfinal action on Sunday.
Mansfield matched one of Sandwich's big weapons with players that could blast the ball just as hard as Maggie Layo and Madeline Klimm. For most of the opening half the two teams went up and down the field with the defense at either end spoiling almost every opportunity. The Lady Knights had five early corner shots, but couldn't muster a shot. Klimm and Kate Towey spoiled a couple of chances by the Hornets as each team managed just two shots on goal in the opening 30 minute period. It wasn't until with 1:47 left in the half that the Knights broke through. Layo took a shot that rode wide to the right side, but not so mach that Ally Hir couldn't get a stick on it and put it past Mansfield goalie Crysta-Lyn Pepicelli.
Sandwich carried the late goal momentum into the second half and needed just 2:50 before they were on the scoreboard again. This time it was Layo slamming a corner shot from Nicole Martin into the back of the goal.
The Lady Knights weren't about to sit on their two-goal lead as Layo and Martin were back in front of the Mansfield goal about a minute later pounding away forcing Pepicelli to make another save. Mallory Whelan got off a shot on goal as did Katie Payne, but Pepicelli was there for the save.
Morgan Rich and Rachel Pentoney played solid defense for Sandwich, while up front Martin, Layo Whelan and Hir gave the Hornets all they could handle.

Have made these several times and always a huge hit! I follow the recipe exactly. As soon as I plate them, they disappear. People literally watch me cook the potstickers, waiting for the next batch. Have even wowed people who claim not to like Chinese food. No issues with cooking time or flavor (use dipping sauce!).
Chinese Potstickers
Photo: Becky Luigart-Stayner; Styling: Jan Gautro
Variations of these little dumplings are popular throughout China. They symbolize abundance and wealth for the coming year, as they are made in large amounts and, when fried golden, represent coins. In northern China they are served in the hours between the old and new year. These may take some time to prepare, but gather a few friends to help assemble the potstickers. Cook two dozen for your party, and freeze the extras for future snacks or meals. Simply pop the extra, uncooked dumplings in a heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag.
Yield: 16 servings (serving size: 3 dumplings and about 1 tablespoon sauce)

A reminder: This is the Fed's stock market
But the central bank may not be able to give investors the clarity they're hoping for.
Just in case you had forgotten what is driving the current rally in U.S. stocks, let Thursday's jump in the Standard & Poor's ($INX), to close at 1675, a new record losing high, serve as a reminder: it's the Federal Reserve's market.
All it took to create the 1.4% gain was a speech by Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke on Wednesday to the National Bureau of Economic Research. In an answer to a question, Bernanke said the Fed will keep its current "highly accommodative monetary policy for the foreseeable future." Unemployment is still too high, Bernanke noted, and inflation too low. "Both sides of our mandate are saying we need to be more accommodative."
Timing increased the power of Bernanke's remarks to move the market. He spoke just three hours after the release of minutes from the Federal Open Market Committee -- that emphasized the disagreements among Fed members on when to begin to taper off the central bank's program of buying $85 billion in Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities a month.
From the minutes, some investors concluded an early taper was gaining momentum at the Fed -- since you could count the comments to show that about half of the 19 participants wanted to end the purchases by the end of 2013.
Bernanke's speech and subsequent remarks, then, seemed a refutation of that conclusion.
I think, in truth, the reading of the minutes to show growing momentum for an early taper was an over-interpretation -- based on very hard to parse, short comments -- and that Thursday's reaction to Bernanke's remarks is an equal over-reaction, since it really contains no new information. The Fed's decision on when to begin any taper will depend on the data about unemployment, economic growth, and inflation. That was Fed policy and it still is.
But even though Thursday's big move may be based on the market's wish for a clear calendar for any beginning of a taper -- a clarity that I just don't think the Fed wants to or can provide -- it is nonetheless as big deal.
By closing at 1675 on the Standard & Poor's, the stock market broke decisively through the old high near 1652-1654 that had capped trading gains recently. Instead of bouncing off that ceiling, U.S. stocks have cleared the hurdle for a new run higher.
Whether that run materializes depends on more than just this technical move. Events in Portugal, Greece and Italy are potentially volatile enough to generate enough fear to stop the move. On Monday we get second quarter GDP numbers from China, that could revive fears that growth in China is slowing too fast and by too much.
But by moving through 1654 to 1675 the market set the trend in a clear upward direction. A move like this is precisely what brings new money in from the sidelines to chase after the new high. That's powerful momentum. News may disrupt it, but the trend is upward until that disruption arrives -- whenever it does.
You can see the power of that trend in the way that Thursday's rally swept the board. All 10 groups in the S&P 500 rallied, with even such lagging sectors s raw materials posting big gains.
Freeport McMoRan Copper & Gold (FCX) climbed 3.4% on the day and Yamana Gold (AUY) roared ahead 7.5%. (Freeport McMoRan Copper & Gold is a member of my Jubak Picks 50 long term portfolio and Yamana Gold is a member of my 12-18 month Jubak's Picks portfolio.)
The U.S. dollar fell against both the yen and the euro on the day.
Full disclosure: I don't own shares of any of the companies mentioned in this post in my personal portfolio. When in 2010 I started the mutual fund I manage, Jubak Global Equity Fund, I liquidated all my individual stock holdings and put the money into the fund. The fund did own shares of Yamana Gold as of the end of March. For a full list of the stocks in the fund as of the end of March see the fund's portfolio.

I don't pray for him. I am retired and this "recovery" is on my income. Pity the poor, the elderly, the savers, the retired, your children and the rest of us upon whose backs all you folks are enjoying whatever it is you enjoy. But then who in America pities anyone. We, very willingly, sacrifice whom ever we have to keep the show going.
Shhhh! listen, that creaking and cracking sound is the timber that holds up Wall Street. When Ben leaves in January QE 3 is gone. Going to be a big cave in, you can hear the props creaking and the rumble already down deep in the bowels of Wall Street. 85 billion a month, 1 trillion a year air money. When the wet nurse pulls the sugar tit away, the baby is going to scream like a spoiled child. Been feedin the junkie since 09, hard to see the intrinsic value in a propped up market. It's going to be one hell of a ride to the bottom.
Feds get out of the way and allow true Price Discovery. Even then, it's not a given. It's always easy to say the Market moved higher or lower because of this or that. At the end of the day, it's pure assumption because we can't wind back the Clock and see the Market's Behavior without the Feds actions. Folks were saying the same thing about the Gov't sequester cuts, now they hardly mention them. If anything, the FEDs ever growing Balance Sheet is a long term Negative. It's like drug dependence, at some point, you don't know anything else. That's never a good thing.
"(Propaganda Central) - Federal Reserve officials are considering moving the goal posts on U.S. monetary policy with a promise to keep interest rates low for longer in the hopes of heading off a troubling rise in market-set borrowing costs. Top Fed officials, who have pulled out all the stops to boost the U.S. recovery from recession, have worried for months that investors might drive bond yields up when the time came to reduce the central bank's bond-buying program. Their fears have started to become reality. Yields, which move inversely to the price of Treasury debt, began to climb sharply in May with signs of stronger jobs growth and signals from the Fed that it could begin to scale back its bond purchases, known as quantitative easing, as soon as September. With yields rising, some Fed officials warmed to the idea of anchoring borrowing costs more firmly by pledging to keep overnight rates near zero well after the jobless rate falls below 6.5 percent, the Fed's current threshold for considering tighter monetary policy. Unemployment stood at 7.6 percent in June."
First... there is NO family-sustaining job creation so the job-thing is bogus. The sheer volume of fiat money in the markets pushing up stock prices but doing nothing else is directly validated in White's book: Fiat Money Inflation in France. The gross dilution of a spending dollar vs. the mammoth loss of movement because of the hoarded dollar is the actual cause of the impasse. The more printed money and bond-buying, the less likely actual enterprise can build sufficient momentum to create economy and hire. Basically, every day that Bernanke continues QE, he stagnates Main Street and condemns it into dysfunction. The pendulum never swung back, hog-tied by this manipulation. The fact exists that while the blade is held hostage, the structure supporting the pendulum is breaking apart. What good are a bunch of administrative businesses fully detached from the society economy and nation that gives them existence? Bernanke has painted himself and us into a stupid loop. The FACT cannot be disputed-- QE must end abruptly and business platforms forced into divestiture to restore currency. To Bernanke's Goliath, any competent capable small entrepreneur with tenacity can wipe out every business platform by refusing to cooperate in stocks and bonds. Without a Main Street connection, they are resigned to seniors, whose subsequent death ends the value and tags the association obligation to the shareholder. You hoard- you adopt his created debt. If I no longer recognize his false dollar, I'm not obligated to anything except to move forward alongside millions who no longer recognize it either.
"Just in case you had forgotten what is driving the current rally in U.S. stocks, let Thursday's jump in the Standard & Poor's (), to close at 1675, a new record losing high, serve as a reminder: it's the Federal Reserve's market."
Thank you, Jim... and to add- what goes up must come down. Realize that all of you in the markets having fun in the casino, cannot leave with anything in your pockets. No business platform has a sustainable sales volume. No one is hiring the quality and quantity that broadens profitability through internal loyalty. Literally- not one hired-in executive has shown a competence that wasn't funded by the Fed, so... "talent" can be challenged and crushed across the board. These aren't argumentative points, they are the stuff that wars are made of and societies are destroyed by. Flat out, Bernanke would have been better off randomly giving 85,000 consumers $100,000 in any given month and ordered them to spend it or return it. Think about it... 100% of his QE is holed-up in the vaults or greedily hoarded in nuggets and certificates. NONE courses through the economy! NONE! Bernanke needed to say-- go forth with your wealth, divest and create enterprise. If it doesn't happen soon, you can count on a war. For you naysayers-- your perception of war is probably as dim as your actual investing acumen. When you are resolved to only a basic survival option, you EAT, because all other actions require it. Where do you run to once you've screwed the whole world, well-fed on real food rich people? Not all wars involve handheld weapons, not all battlefields are on actual real estate, not all victims have wounds that can be surgically healed. Those are the premises that cannot be manipulated.

The third-party warranty service says it now covers iPhones that have been jailbroken, something that voids typical warranties.
The service, which sells warranties for consumer electronics and appliances, plans to use proceeds to fund company growth.
Psst: it's available for the iPad 1, too. SquareTrade's extended warranty includes drop and spill protection, unlike Apple's slightly more expensive plan.
The sadists at SquareTrade put the latest and greatest through the paces. Samsung's Galaxy S5 seemed to prove again that plastic is nothing to be ashamed of.
SquareTrade releases data showing that Washington isn't just the nation's capital, it's also the scariest place in the country to be an iPhone.
SquareTrade is at it again -- dropping and drowning two of the most-hyped tablets around.
Warranty outfit SquareTrade abuses the two top phones and records the carnage.
Little Fluffypants and Miss Twinkletoes could take a big toll on your tech. A SquareTrade study shows pets damage 8 million electronic devices each year.
SquareTrade dropped, drowned, and pounded both all-star phones, and one clearly cracked under the pressure. But was it a fair test?
SquareTrade found Americans are spending billions on damaged iPhones, with a surprising amount of the destruction occurring on the john.

Joshua Dickerson:
--- Quote from: groundup on October 05, 2010, 11:26:10 AM ---I can't really figure out how all of the sidebar is created. Once I can figure that out, I am going to change some things up. I want to remove all of that navigation stuff from the sidebar and put it at the top like SMF does. I want to have the Hello, {username}\nRecent Changes\nWatchlist\nMy Contributions\n
In the top bar menu I'd like to put Home, Help, Search, Member (drop down with: User:{username}, Preferences, Talk, Watchlist, Contributions), Members, Logout. I'm thinking between Home and Help I'd also like to put Page with a drop down for the editing controls.
That would remove the need for the first two things in the sidebar: user and navigation. I'd move the search up to the top of that and move page controls just under that. Page controls: Edit, History, Delete, Move, Protect, <hr>, Watch, Refresh. Also in there, I'd like some Javascript to show/hide the [edit] links. It might also link to the user's preferences so you can either have them on/off when browsing.
If at all possible, breadcrumb navigation would be awesome to add. This would probably have to be a template or something that is grabbed by the skin. I don't know how that would work. Then there are the SMF topic buttons like reply/add poll/notify but we'd put in Edit/Delete/Watch.
I have a lot more planned for this skin but I have trouble with skinning MW.
--- End quote ---
I spent hours getting to know MediaWiki's code to write the SMF Curve Theme for MediaWiki. If you want something changed, just let me know and I'll help you out.
Can we flip the User Info and Navigation sections on the left? It seems counter intuitive to have the user links first.
Joshua Dickerson:
B, that's the point of what I was discussing. I don't want that info over there.
I meant in the meantime, but I suppose I can wait. :)

How to make a quick $50
If you're jobless, underemployed or just looking at a paycheck that won't stretch as far as it needs to, odd jobs may be your answer. You might be surprised at what's out there now.
Given that the economic "recovery" is being fueled by lower-paying and/or part-time jobs, you might be in the market for some extra money.
Yes, that stinks. Debate the politics another time, though; right now you need to find ways to pay the bills.
A good place to start is an article on the Wealth Informatics blog. The author, Suba, lists nearly 70 ideas. In addition to the usual suspects like babysitting, plasma donation and selling stuff on Craigslist, she's come up with some creative ways to make a buck. For example:
Grocery shopping. People are willing to pay supermarkets for delivery, so they should be willing to pay you -- especially if you tack on extras like coupon matching and meal-planning based on that week's loss leaders.
Laundry schlepper. Suba once knew a student who picked up clothing, delivered it to the laundry or dry cleaner, and then returned the finished products. It took half the weekend, "but covered his living expenses for the rest of the week."
Professional loiterer. She didn't call it that, but that's what it is: You get paid to wait for the electrician or the cable guy.
But do such jobs pay enough? And how do you find them?
First, the pay: It can be mediocre or it can be pretty great, depending on what you're signing up to do. (It also depends on what you like to do; more on that later.) I've seen ads on sites like TaskRabbit and OddJobNation for gigs as simple as:
- Participating in a two-hour social media/fashion focus group ($100).
- Taking several loads of laundry to the laundromat and returning it clean and folded ($23).
- Removing and discarding packing materials from 30 small boxes, flattening the boxes and putting them in a recycling bin ($29).
The most unusual gig? Watching a short pornographic film, part of a psychology student's project on women and sexuality.
Can't find a job? Make one
Consider making your own "job" by focusing on what you like to do and/or what you're already doing anyway. Suppose you do three long training runs per week. Offer to take your busy neighbor's dog along; Fido will get needed exercise, and the extra bucks will make up for your having to carry poop bags on the trek.
Is gardening your passion? Offer to create and/or maintain someone else's landscape. Live in a high-rise? Put up a sign letting neighbors know you'll collect their mail while they vacation.
Do you walk your kids to school? Offer to take other people's children along. If you work at home, let neighbors know you're willing to sign for packages or let in the plumber.
Not all fast-cash options are odd jobs as such. How about:
- Find and fix. If you're a good tinkerer or can turn a beat-up bookcase into a colorful accent piece, start searching for stuff to repair and sell. Check curbs on trash day, the areas beside apartment-house Dumpsters and the "free" section of Craigslist. (I once talked with a guy who picked up "broken" yard equipment for free, then tuned it up and sold it).
- Mystery shopping. Two things you need to know: Never pay for leads (sign up for free at Volition or the Mystery Shopping Providers Association), and ignore scam emails (no reputable company would look for shoppers this way). The more work you do, the more likely you'll land the higher-paying "shops."
- Short-term rentals. If having strangers in your house doesn't creep you out, sites like Airbnb and Roomorama can earn you thousands. Living near an exciting city or beautiful countryside is a plus; one couple's D.C.-area home earned them $37,000 in a year.
- Game shows, either onstage or watching. Check your favorite program's website for contestant info. A woman I interviewed makes extra cash as a "super-excited, cranked to maximum capacity" paid audience member. She also auditions for game-show pilot episodes. If you don't get selected, an upbeat attitude might snare you one of those paid audience member gigs.
All right, so that last one is a long shot. But plenty of people live near where game shows are filmed, and some game shows do regional tryouts. (In the early 1990s I was on "Jeopardy!" -- and they found me by coming to Alaska.)

If you have a specialized skill (writing, editing, medical transcription, data entry, virtual assistant), check out sites like eLance, PeoplePerHour, Freelancer.com and Guru.com.
Companies like Fiverr and Gigbucks let you post your unique abilities (serious or silly) for hire. Browse their listings, because you may have a saleable skill (writing quick satires, imitating Darth Vader) you never thought to try and sell.
Part-time gigs can be found at the online sites mentioned above, on Craigslist (yes, legitimate gigs are regularly advertised there) or on bulletin boards at the supermarket. Obviously you need to exercise caution when accepting a job, no matter where it's listed; if something feels wrong, don't accept it.
Or simply put the word out among friends, either informally or through social media. Suba suggests advertising in your own neighborhood. People you know are likely to feel more comfortable with you "instead of trusting complete strangers." Once you've done a few jobs, you'll have references that will likely lead to complete strangers trusting you.
According to Abigail R. Gehring, author of "Odd Jobs: How to Have Fun and Make Money in a Bad Economy," short-term employment has its charms.
"The variety of people you will meet, places you'll find yourself and skill sets you'll discover are sure to keep life interesting," she says.
Readers: What's the oddest odd job you ever did?

When I was 11 or 12 years old, the neighbor's son (he was early 30s) paid me to go visit his mom on Saturday mornings (he'd come after lunch). Her health was not good, wheelchair bound - I'd dust her house, run the vacuum - but mostly just listen to her. We looked at old picture albums and such. Once she asked me to take some dresses out of the closet - she just wanted to look at them again. I started going on Wednesdays after school - on my own, no pay - just because I liked her and I knew she was lonely. I learned compassion - something money just can't buy.
Become a sports referee or umpire.
I work as a soccer referee only on Sundays and can make anything from $40 to $70 per game and I do at least three. I could do Saturdays and weekdays for the highschool season but I have a fulltime job and would not be able to get out of bed if I was doing 7 or 8 games a week. It is also a great way to get fit and meet people. I know quite a few teachers who supplement their income by being baseball umpires, soccer, basketball, fottball referees and so on.

- Winner, winner chicken dinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/30/2014My husband and I live in the neighborhood. I knew my family would love Ma'ono once they started eating. They had lots of questions on the menu and as per usual I reserved a chicken. Because there were six adults we also ordered two soup noodles, pork platter and vegetable sides. The service was polite and efficient, the food was a hit. No one could stop eating and/or remarking on how wonderful everything tasted. Everyone shared and munched and talked and enjoyed. A very successful dinner event.Special Features:
- deliciousseattlecamperDined on 9/28/2014This restaurant is delicious. My wife and I got the fatty saimin and it was so good. One of our friends got the other ramen dish and she said it was super smokey, it didn't mention it would be smokey, and that specific dish normally isn't smokey at other places. She really didn't like it. So, maybe in the future you could mention that on your menu. Overall, we enjoyed the fried chicken, biscuit and gravy, soups, and the bottomless mimosas. I love this restaurant. And I love the fatty saimin. Oh yeah, we also had spam wasubi/masubi? Not sure what the word was, but they were spam/rice/seaweed. I didn't have any but the people that did said it was very good.Special Features:
- Best BrunchDaniRNDined on 9/27/2014omg. All i can do is rave about this place. The food was incredible. Everyone loved what they got. The only thing is the loco moco needed a bit more gravy but the flavors were incredible! The service was great, our server was attentive and our glasses were always full. It was a great way to start our Saturday before a Sounders game. Will for sure be returning.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, great valuedbwsDined on 9/5/2014Everything I have ever had here was great. The chicken, the kimchee, the curry fried rice with bacon...everything. It's great since it's a great spot to go out with friends or on a date, the food and ambience works for either, yet it won't cost you a fortune like some places. Also, there were some older kids there - since hey, it's fried chicken - so you could take your kids there if you want. Classic West Seattle spot.Special Features:
- Best fried chicken in stateTamabDined on 8/31/2014Simply put, this is the best fried chicken you may ever taste in your lifetime.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great food & service but too noisyhoopspaDined on 8/24/2014I had the loco moco which was fantastic. Our server was sweet and attentive. However the acoustics were really bad which made it hard to have a conversation.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/23/2014Didn't think it was worth the hype of the fried chicken. It was ok not great. The restaurant is so loud the waitress can't even hear you unless you're near yelling. Couldn't even hear our guests across the table. No air-conditioning when it's 83 degrees outside is just plain ridiculous. The air was stifling inside.Special Features:
- Taking the bad with the good...DebbieDined on 8/23/2014The food was great, the service was exceptional and informative, the cocktails were fun, & the bourbon/whiskey list extensive. It was also extremely hot (even by the door), & so loud we literally had to shout at each other to be heard.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious!DeliciousexperienceDined on 8/22/2014We had a delicious dinner at ma'ono. We started off with the padron peppers. They were delicious! For dinner we had the fried chicken, szechuan Green Beans, and sweet rolls. The chicken came with Curry & Bacon Fried Rice and Kimchee. Everything was absolutely perfect and delicious. We can't wait to go back again.Special Features:
- Out of Food, Dark, LoudautumnDined on 8/17/2014This was my second time at Ma'Ono and I was pumped to share it with my friends. Unfortunatley, they were out of the fried chicken which we knew about right after setting the reservation but then we had been there for almost 20 minutes before our server informed us that they were also out of all their Saimin dishes. The lights were so low we could barely see the people across the table but yet it was loud at the same time.Special Features:
- Creative, amazing food!GoodtimesDined on 8/16/2014We loved everything about the menu. A fusion of amazing flavors and styles, dinner was unique and memorable. Make sure to preorder your chicken! I'm not typically a fried chicken kinda gal, but this is a must have. The peppers, Szechuan green beans, kimcheesey Mac and cheese... Awesome.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fried chicken82muchDined on 8/15/2014Every dish was very good. Good value and a memorable evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great whiskey drinksColbusinessDined on 8/14/2014The mixed drinks are superb, it's not the only reason to go there but it certainly makes the trip easier.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Late night dinnerMaryMDined on 8/6/2014Ma'ono offers delicious good and friendly service AND they offer that at nine pm!! One of the few good eating spots for late dinner after evening golf! Thank you Ma'ono!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- unusual fusion of flavorsvacationersDined on 8/2/2014The menu had changed a bit after i had made the reservation. I was disappointed that the cheesy grits were not there. But I was able to find many dishes (that sounded delicious) to choose from. The fried chicken was delicious but the biscuits and gravy were phenomenal! I had delicious quiche while two of my friends ordered what they referred to as the "mystery bowl." I forgot what the menu named it but it was layered with rice, beef, gravy, Portuguese sausage, and a fried egg and then there were the other "mystery" ingredients.(Not listed on the menu description.) we passed around tastes and discovered it was cheesy grits and marinated cocnut. Everyone had a godd time and really enjoyed the food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Ma'Ono is a gem!LottePDined on 8/1/2014We absolutely love Ma'Ono! We have friends who come in from London and demand we go here! It's a MUST on everyone's eat list! And the fried chicken dinner is a must as well. And the popcorn ice cream. And...and...and....so good!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Simply the Best Chicken in SeattleberrydelightsDined on 7/31/2014Came here for my birthday for an evening of indulgence (and gluttony) and it was simply outstanding. You can never go wrong with the fried chicken (best in Seattle) and don't sleep on the hamburgers. You'll find yourself licking your fingers quite a bit but luckily the good folks at Ma'ono are right along with hot towels to get you cleaned up. Not only that, its in a very cool scene in West Seattle. So all in all, one of my favorite spots.Special Features:
- love itOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 7/27/2014Food was awesome. we tried a few pupu's and the fire roasted favas were a big hit. the server recommended a bourbon and fever tree ginger ale drink that hit the spot.Special Features:
- Love the food, but...heidijDined on 7/26/2014We come to Ma'Ono about once a month and the food is always great. The service this time was disappointing. We had a later reservation and the restaurant was not busy, but our waiter disappeared after greeting us. When he did come back to take our drink order, he also took the drink order for the larger party next to us, who had just been seated. From the time we arrived until he served our drinks was almost 25 minutes. The food arrived in a timely fashion, but our waiter disappeared again, leaving us waiting with questions about the bill (we gave him our credit cards and asked to split the check, and he left the wrong tab with our credit card slips afterwards).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great serviceHunterHawaiiDined on 7/26/2014Very pleased for group of 6 including 2 kids. Server Chad was great!Special Features:
- Not worth all the hypedinerchickDined on 7/24/2014When you can get a better burger at Dick's for a fifth of the price and chicken that is moist, juicy and delicious from the Colonel, there is no need to dine here. Have West Seattleites gone mad thinking this is worth $4 a piece or worth making reservations to hold? The room was so loud you couldn't even hear the person next to you and when the server asked us if we wanted change on our check we knew we had picked the wrong restaurant. The owners did try to make it right by refunding us our $$ for the horrible meal, but when you're celebrating someone's birthday, the day is kind of ruined.
- Great Brunch!KidarDined on 7/19/2014This was my second time here (first for brunch). Brunch was fantastic. Loved the food and the bottomless Mimosas made it a fun start to the day for everyone. We'll be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very Busy NightWallasweetVIPDined on 7/12/2014We happened to pick the night of the West Seattle Street Fair with hundreds of people in the street and bands playing right in front of the restaurant. So it was extremely busy and loud. The food was quite tasty and the friend chicken was delicious and crispy. The drinks were good and interesting. The booth seating was a little uncomfortable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- PerfectJosephDined on 7/6/2014Took my out of tower guests in including their 18 month old. Service was great and food was awesome as always.Special Features:
- out of chicken!EmilyDined on 7/3/2014beware! they were out of chicken at 8pm on a FRIDAY! we were shocked and disappointed. Order in advance if you are going specifically for the fried chicken. I will say that our experience was redeemed by what was quite possibly the best burger I have ever tasted. well done ma'ono.Special Features:
- Over RatedBillSeattleVIPDined on 7/2/2014Went for the fried chicken, over breaded, over cooked, not great. Interesting menu but mostly Hawaiian food that you can find elsewhere for less. Spam Musabi for $8 is ridiculous. Tried it, won't be back.Special Features:
- Saturday Dinner w/FriendsOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 6/28/2014A group of seven of us came in for dinner Saturday 01/28. I was the only one who'd been in to Ma'ono and I've been talking it up. The food and service did not disappoint and everyone had a really good time. We ordered a bunch of pupus + the fried chicken. We especially loved the Spam Musubi, Kalua Pig Tacos, Shoyu Tombo Poke and of course the fried chicken. Sorry, I didn't catch our servers' name but he had dark hair and a full beard. He was great, very knowledgeable of the menu and made helpful suggestions. He had a good sense of humor and seemed to have fun with our somewhat boisterous group. Thanks Ma'ono, we'll be back!Special Features:
- Reasonably priced interesting foodBonbonDined on 6/27/2014Had delicious nectarine, cheese, macadamia salad, and the whole trout and I'd do it again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Salty, salty, salty!Liv4foodDined on 6/26/2014Fried chicken was super salty. Saimin was super salty and "Mac and kimcheese" had no kimchee flavor. Side of kimchee was bad too (not pickled). The name should be Ma'NoNo not Ma'Ono!
- Fantastic food but really need ACSdutchVIPDined on 6/25/2014Had a wonderful meal - food was fantastic - but it was hard to enjoy it in a baking hot restaurant, even though it was only 70 degrees outside. Really want to go back, but might need to wait until winter since it unfortunately made us want to rush out (and obviously we weren't alone with that, looking at the larger crowd).
- Fabulous BrunchWSFoodieDined on 6/22/2014Food was delicious - absolutely amazing! Bottomless mimosas were good and kept on coming the entire time we were there. Service was great for our large group. We will definitely be coming back. It was a bit loud when we were there, but I think that was due to two large groups being right next to each other and not sure if it is always that way.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good potentialMattiVIPDined on 6/21/2014Place has excellent potential and a great cocktail list. The drinks were amazing and the food tasty, but very heavily salted (and I like salt). At first we thought it was a fluke (someone got a little heavy handed and Oops! it's hard to go back). But it was not just one or two dishes, but every. single. one. And by the time we noticed, we were really hungry and didn't want to complain and wait for another order, which I'm sure would have been provided, as the service was great. I hope to go back so that I can remember more about the food than the sodium level.Special Features:
- Great findKenaiDined on 6/15/2014I reserved a table for Fathers Day and received a call that day to let me know that fried chicken orders were low and given the option to order ahead of time, I'm so glad I did, the fried chicken was fantastic. We also tried the edamame, spam musubi and kahlua pork tacos. Everything was delicious, my stepson is sold on spam musubi, loved the pickled plum added in. Can't wait to go back!Special Features:
- Delicious fried chickenFromNewOrleansDined on 6/6/2014Two of us split a whole chicken and an order of roasted carrots, with drinks (one of us had a cocktail and a beer, the other, two neat whiskies). Service was very attentive and much faster than we expected. The drinks were delicious. The chicken was outstanding, but the sides that accompany it at night (white rice with a little of what I think was green tea on top and a pot of kimchee) did not work for me. The carrots, however, were outstanding. And if you get the chicken at brunch, it comes with a buscuit and a side of gravy - and that makes the chicken even better, so from now on I am coming here for brunch rather than dinner. The meal was about $100 plus tip, but there was enough chicken that we had it for dinner the next night , too.Special Features:
- The following 874 reviews are from the Ma'ono Fried Chicken & Whisky reviews archive.
- No overrated!want2luvitbutcannotDined on 6/6/2014We had a reservation for 5 and they jammed us into a book for 4 plus added a chair that was in the way of everyone - there was NO room for food! The whiskey drinks must have been made for juveniles as there was absolutely NO flavor on the 5 different drinks we ordered. Chicken was okay, but don't understand the hype. Loco Moco was a mishmash of foods that didn't taste good together. The fatty saimin was okay, nothing special. One in our party did order the burger and she said it was good, so kudos there. The heat was stifling in the restaurant! 4 of the 5 of us are from O'ahu and this food never came close to even the worst Hawaiian meal we had there. We'd go somewhere else next time.
- Food ok, service poorKianiDPOVIPDined on 6/1/2014Service started out friendly but slow. Ordered a glass of wine that didn't come until after we were done with the pupus - and the place wasn't even busy. Then as the meal progressed, our waiter's personality changed from pleasant and helpful, to silent and rude! We were perplexed with the sudden change in mood, we're certain it wasn't anything we did or said, it was quite weird! Anyway, had the fried chicken, moist and crispy; broccoli was good; but overall, like a few of the other reviewers, nothing to get real excited about. We had to ask for a box to pack the leftovers, then had to ask for our check and when the waiter brought it, he just threw it on our table without even a thank you!
- Delicious as usual!KapnKzDined on 5/31/2014We have enjoyed every meal we've had at Ma'ono and this last visit was no different. The service was great this visit too.Special Features:
- Great dinnerJMarieDined on 5/30/2014The fried chicken is amazing! And lots of other unique yummy sides as well (we loved the spicy green beans).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Requested dinner by son...NoMildewBehindTheEarsDined on 5/26/2014Our son requested dining at Ma'ono as he loved it from his first visit to it back last December. The chicken is excellent, both traditional and GF versions. Loved the kimchi and pickles, nice compliment to the protein. We are also fans of the Masubi and Pork Cracklings. Will be heading back again, and again (although I do miss Spring Hill - that food was amazing in its own right).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ObsessedMichelleyDined on 5/25/2014Thankful for such a fun restaurant with great food and even greater service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Yes, I think I'm Parisian Chic. Maybe!
Some things in Paris are almost a given, a rite of passage if you will.There's that tentative yet boldy self-confident attitude. Polar opposites that when they come together, with a cute accent thrown in, are oh soooo French.Then's there's the love for simple, yet classic pieces, with something bold thrown in to pop.The attitude and the style are almost the same, no? Yes, of course they are!H&M is beginning a style video series and the 'Parisian Chic' street style is the 2nd to roll out today. We think it's very worthwhile to watch and captures the je ne sais quoi of young French style that is a simple, yet timeless recipe for easy chic.Published on January 14, 2010

KSP Highway Safety Branch News Release
Kentucky Highway Deaths Down by Thirty-Six in 2009*
*Statewide highway fatalities down by 36 compared to the same reporting period in 2008
Date of News Release: 11/16/09
(Frankfort, Ky.) -- Preliminary statistics* indicate that thirteen people died in ten separate crashes on Kentucky roadways from Monday, November 16 through Sunday, November 22, 2009.
Eight of the crashes involved motor vehicles and 9 of the 11 victims were not wearing seat belts. Single-fatality crashes occurred in Boone, Boyd, Clay, Hancock, Madison and Owen counties.
A double-fatality motor vehicle crash occurred in Carroll county and the suspected use of alcohol was a factor in that crash.
A triple-fatality motor vehicle crash occurred in Boone county involving a package delivery truck and a pick up truck on U.S. 42 at Miller Owens Road.
Two pedestrian crashes occurred in Fleming and Jefferson county.
Through November 22, preliminary statistics* indicate that 687 people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways during 2009. This is 33 less fatalities than reported for the same time period in 2008. There were 553 motor vehicle fatalities and 307 of those victims were not wearing seat belts. Thirty-five pedestrians and 5 bicyclists have been killed. Seventy-eight fatalities involved a motorcycle and fifteen fatalities involved an ATV. Sixty-nine crashes involved a commercial motor vehicle. A total of 145 fatalities have resulted from crashes involving the suspected use of alcohol.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.
*These statistics are still preliminary as KSP waits for all local law enforcement agencies throughout the state to report any crashes and fatalities that may have occurred in their areas.

What's with all the short-term memory loss down at the NR?
County government welcomed "two new commissioners" following the 2002 election, as well as following the 1994 election.
It is true that this is the first commissioner election, in quite some time, featuring two races without an incumbent seeking re-election, but that requires a different statement.
It is too bad that the NR will refrain from making an endorsement for the other commissioner race. I understand erring on the side of caution to avoid any appearance of insider bias, or possibly creating a hostile work environment for Sal, but I think it short-changes the readers of the newspaper, as well as the other candidates who may be looking for an honest assessment of their fit in the community, through the eyes of local media.
As for the other race, we followed a long-standing policy, last used when former News-Register Viewpoints Editor Cassie Sollars ran for county commissioner.
Your interest in our thoughts about that race would have been lost in a flurry of criticism if we endorsed Sal, and as you noted, our workplace would suffer if we endorsed a different candidate. With that kind of built-in conflict of interests, we chose to sit that one out as we have done in the past.

New data shows that the rate of young veterans (ages 18-29) committing suicide has increased nearly 50 percent in the past few years, yielding 60 suicides for every 100,000 vets.
The number of post-war suicides is decreasing for veterans ages 35-64 in the last three years. Some experts say that the increase in suicides is due to the pace of military life and the change in economy and job availability.
When vets returned home at the end of WWII they went right to work building houses and working in factories making all of the things that Americans had to do without during the war.
Now, Americans haven't really had to do without much and there aren't any jobs to be had.
When it comes to health care, more than a third of the nation's 22 million veterans are enrolled to receive health care at VA centers.
Today's vets face many challenges when their military careers are over. Veterans are also able to seek help online at http://VeteransCrisisLine.net/Chat or by calling the Veterans Crisis Line at 1-800-273-8255.

The Samsung Galaxy Note II is a smartphone–tablet computer hybrid designed, developed and marketed by Samsung. It is the successor to the Samsung Galaxy Note, and is the second device in the company's Note series, which places emphasis on the use of a stylus. Employing a 1.6 GHz quad-core processor, the device sports a 5.55-inch (141 mm) diagonal display with 720p resolution, 2 GB of RAM, and a maximum of 128 GB storage (by using a 64 GB microSD card with the 64 GB model). Upon its launch, it was the first Samsung phone to come with Android version 4.1 "Jelly Bean" as standard.
- from Wikipedia
If you just switched from an iPhone to a Galaxy Note II, you definitely want to get all your favorite songs, movies, apps, games and more in your iPhone fully moved to your new device. But since iPhone and Galaxy Note II run on two different and competing mobile operating systems, being iOS and Android respectively, the transfer cannot be that easy. For instance, if you need to transfer iOS apps and games to Galaxy Note II, you have to find the corresponding apps and games in Google Play. If the Android version of the app or game is also available, you just download and install it onto your Galaxy Note II. Then you just start using the app or playing the game on your new device once again, with no app record or game scores. For the apps and games that do not have Android versions, there's no way to get them transferred from iPhone to Galaxy Note II.
Due to copyright protection, you cannot directly transfer songs, movies, TV shows, music videos or audiobooks from your iPhone to your brand new Galaxy Note II either. The songs, movies, TV shows, music videos and audiobooks in your iPhone are generally purchased and downloaded from iTunes Store. Actually, the iTunes media is protected by using Apple's FairPlay DRM copy protection. To play iTunes songs, movies, TV shows, music videos and audiobooks on Galaxy Note II, you will need to remove iTunes DRM and convert iTunes media to Galaxy Note II compatible file formats as listed below:
- Codec: MPEG4, H.263, H.264, VC-1, DivX, WMV7, WMV8, WMV9, VP8
- Format: 3GP(MP4), WMV(ASF), AVI, FLV, MKV, WebM
- Full HD(1080p) Playback & Recording
- Codec: MP3, OGG, WMA, AAC, ACC+, eAAC+, AMR(NB,WB), MIDI, WAV, AC-3, Flac
- Music Player with SoundAlive
- 3.5mm Ear Jack
Below are articles about how to convert iTunes media to plain mp3 or mp4 files that I have written in this blog before:
- How to Convert iTunes Music to MP3
- How to Convert iTunes Audiobook to MP3
- How to Convert iTunes Video to MP4
When the iTunes media is converted into mp3 or mp4 files, you can then feel free to transfer them to your Galaxy Note II via MicroSD card:
- On the device, select Settings > Wireless and network > USB utilities, and choose the Connect storage to PC option.
- Connect the Galaxy Note II to your computer using the micro-USB cable.
- On the screen of the device, select the Connect USB storage option.
- A removable disk will mount to your computer. You will see it listed under Computer if you're a Windows user, or on the Desktop if you're a Mac user.
- Drag and drop the music and video files over to the removable disk. You may want to create one folder named Music and another folder named Video within the removable disk first for organizational purposes.
Since Galaxy Note II is an Android device, you may also find the following articles useful:

Tara Boothe named honorable mention All-American
Women's basketball star recognized by Street & Smith after leading the team in scoring, rebounding, steals and blocks last season
09/30/04Xavier women's basketball team standout Tara Boothe was honored as a preseason All-American selection by Street & Smith's magazine. Boothe is one of three Atlantic 10 Conference players to earn mention from the national publication, which is available at newsstands and bookstores now.
Richmond's Kate Flavin and George Washington's Anna Montanana were also recognized by Street & Smith's as Honorable Mention All-American's.
Boothe, a 2004 All-Atlantic 10 selection, led the Musketeers in scoring (18.1 ppg), rebounding (7.6 rpg), steals (1.7 spg) and blocks (0.9 bpg) during the 2003-2004 campaign. Last season, Boothe tied a Xavier record when she scored her 1,000th point in only her 59th game as a Musketeer. She currently sits in 18th place on Xavier's all-time scoring list with 1,021 points.
The junior forward also earned national recognition after the 2002-2003 season when she was honored as a Freshman All-American.
The Musketeers finished the 2003-2004 season with a 17-13 record and advanced to the WNIT first round.
Xavier begins exhibition play on Wednesday, Nov. 3, when it takes on the Indiana All-Stars at Cintas Center. Tip off is slated for 7:30 p.m.

The second-largest settlement in Tierra del Fuego, Río Grande is also the only town of significance in Isla Grande's central and northern sector. The sterile-looking plains that surround it harbour fields of petroleum and natural gas that generate millions of dollars of wealth annually, with huge quantities of gas transported each year to Ushuaia and as far away as Buenos Aires. North of town, the RN-3 runs through monotonous scenery towards San Sebastián, where you cross the border into Chile or continue north on a dead-end route to the mouth of the Magellan Straits at Cabo Espíritu Santo. On the way to Río Grande from Ushuaia, the RN-3 winds up to Paso Garibaldi, where you have majestic views over Lago Escondido, and then bypasses Tolhuin, crossing the woodland scenery of the central region. This stretch is marked by a string of ripio branch roads, the rutas complementarias, which wiggle away from the RN-3; those headed west take you to a couple of fine estancias, and those headed east into the Península Mitre, the windswept land that forms Isla Grande's desolate tip.
One of the northern region's principal tourist draws is its world-class trout-fishing, especially for sea-running brown trout, which on occasion swell to weights in excess of 14kg. The river, also named Río Grande, currently holds several fly-fishing world records for brown trout caught with various breaking strains of line. The mouths of the Río Fuego and Río Ewan can also be spectacularly fruitful, as can sections of the Malengüeña, Irigoyen, Claro and Turbio rivers, and lakes Yehuin and Fagnano.Read More
Lago Fagnano
Lago Fagnano
Cresting the Paso Garibaldi some 45km out of Ushuaia, the RN-3 descends towards Lago Escondido, the first of the lowland lakes, accessible via a 4km branch road to the north, before heading alongside the southern shore of LAGO FAGNANO. This impressive lake, also called Lago Kami from its Selk'nam name, is flanked by ranges of hills, and straddles the Chilean border at its western end. Most of its 105km are inaccessible to visitors, apart from dedicated anglers who can afford to rent a good launch. Travelling along the RN-3 as it parallels the lake, you'll see several sawmills, denoted by their squat, conical brick chimneys, used for burning bark.
Near the eastern end of Lago Fagnano, the road splits: the left fork is the more scenic, old, unsealed RN-3 route, which cuts north across the lake along a splendid causeway; the right is the RN-3 bypass, the more direct route to TOLHUIN, the region's oddest little town. Created in the 1970s, Tolhuin was designed to provide a focus for the heartland of Isla Grande – indeed, the name means "heart-shaped" in Selk'nam – but as a place of unassuming houses that hangs together with little focus, it has an artificial commune-like feel. It does, however, make a useful halfway point to break the journey – as most buses do – between Ushuaia and Río Grande.
- To Río Grande: the RN-3 and the rutas complementarias
The indigenous peoples of Tierra del Fuego
The indigenous peoples of Tierra del Fuego
The lands at the end of the earth were home to several distinct societies before the arrival of the Europeans.
The Selk'nam
In 1580, Sarmiento de Gamboa became the first European to encounter the Selk'nam, one of the largest groups. He was impressed by these "Big People", with their powerful frames, guanaco robes and conical headgear. It wasn't long before their war-like, defiant nature became evident, though, and a bloody skirmish with a Dutch expedition in 1599 proved them to be superb fighters. Before the arrival of the Europeans, Selk'nam society revolved around the hunting of guanaco, which they relied on not just for meat – the skin was made into moccasins and capes, the bones were used for fashioning arrowheads and the sinews for bowstrings. Hunting was done on foot, and the Selk'nam used stealth and teamwork to encircle guanaco, bringing them down with bow and arrow, a weapon with which they were expert.
The Yámana
The other sizeable group was the Yámana (Yaghan), a sea-going people living in the channels of the Fuegian archipelago. Their society was based on tribal groups of extended families, each of which lived for long periods aboard their equivalent of a houseboat: a canoe fashioned of lenga bark. Out on the ocean, work was divided between the sexes: the men hunted seals from the prow while the women – the only ones who could swim – took to the icy waters, collecting shellfish with only a layer of seal grease to protect them from the cold. When not at sea, the Yámana stayed in dwellings made of guindo evergreen beech branches, building conical huts in winter (to shed snow), and more aerodynamic dome-shaped ones in the summer (when strong winds blow). Favoured campsites were used over millennia, and, at these sites, middens of discarded shells would accumulate in the shape of a ring, since doors were constantly being shifted to face away from the wind.
The impact of the European settlers
The arrival of European settlers marked the beginning of the end for both the Selk'nam and the Yámana. To protect colonists' sheep farms in the late nineteenth century, hundreds of miles of wire fencing were erected, which the Selk'nam, unsurprisingly, resented, seeing it as an incursion into their ancestral lands; however, they soon acquired a taste for hunting the slow animals, which they referred to as "white guanaco". For the settlers, this was an unpardonable crime, representing a drain on their investment. The Selk'nam were painted as "barbarous savages" who constituted an obstacle to settlement and progress, and isolated incidents of attack and retaliation soon escalated into bloody conflict. Reliable sources point to bounty hunters being paid on receipt of grisly invoices, such as a pair of severed ears. The assault on Selk'nam culture, too, was abrupt and devastating, led by the "civilizing" techniques of the Salesian missions, who "rehoused" them in their buildings. By the late 1920s there were probably no indigenous Selk'nam living as their forefathers had done and when pure-blooded Lola Kiepje and Esteban Yshton passed away in 1966 and 1969, respectively, Selk'nam culture died with them.
The measles epidemic
Meanwhile, the arrival of settlers in 1884 triggered a measles epidemic that killed approximately half the estimated one thousand remaining Yámana. Damp, dirty clothing – European castoffs given by well-meaning missionaries – increased the risk of disease. Missionaries promoted a shift to sedentary agriculture, but the consequent change of diet, from one high in animal fats to one more reliant on vegetables, reduced the Yámana's resistance to the cold, further increasing the likelihood of disease. Outbreaks of scrofula, pneumonia and tuberculosis meant that by 1911 fewer than one hundred Yámana remained. Abuela Rosa, the last of the Yámana to live in the manner of her ancestors, died in 1982. Nevertheless, a few Yámana descendants still live near Puerto Williams on Isla Navarino.
