- Great BAJ-MED CuisineOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/19/2014If you never travel to Baja ... this is the great experience of a little demo cuisine from BAJASpecial Features:
- No dessert!tomatoesDined on 8/3/2014Excellent food, as always. However, this time we were disappointed that we were unable to order dessert. We were told that the kitchen was closed, even though we were finished with our dinner before closing time. Any diner who is seated and served should have access to dessert as well!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Nice ChangedoctordDined on 8/2/2014Menu is different than most Mex/Mediterranean restaurants. Food is well prepared and presented.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- never coming back!!!etLyannaVIPDined on 8/1/2014went here with my husband with very high hopes because of 4-5 star reviews but we were very disappointed. 1st they gave us a glass of water with lipstick mark on it, we got no apology or whatsoever. 2nd the food was just OK, i was even wondering why they call their paella award winning. 3rd the service was terrible, i would understand if the place was too busy that night but sadly it wasn't. i don't mind paying $$$ if the place or food is worthy but this place is definitely not. never coming back. i will warn and not recommend this place to anyone i know.
- Delicious restaurantTereluvsuDined on 8/1/2014We loved the food and ambiance. We can't wait to go back for more!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- beavesbistroDined on 7/26/2014All the good reviews I've read are spot on. I could not have been happier. Excellent service -- friendly, attentively responsive, but not overbearing. Food choices were incredible. A nice mix of tapas and main dishes. Subtle fusion of Spanish and other with Mexican foods, imaginatively honoring flavor profiles of each tradition. Not trying to be different, just for the sake of being different, what I call truly innovative culinary creations. The only other thing I can say further to recommend it, is that I'll return, because there were many dishes I want to try.
- Lunch with a friendMickeyDined on 7/26/2014I had been to the restaurant before, but brought a friend to try it out because I thought she would like the place. She loved it. The food was amazing, as always. The service was great.Special Features:
- Night out with friendsDebbieDined on 7/25/2014I have been there many times and I always enjoy their tapas, it gives me a chance to try a little portion of several of their items. My friends and I enjoy coming their for their Tamarindo martinis. The atmosphere is great and if you want it a little louder they have a bar with live music.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Paella?sweetieDined on 7/25/2014The tapas were fine, the service was superb BUT we are paella fans and we were very disappointed in this paella. My advice is to order something else when visiting Romescos.Special Features:
- The real thingOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 7/19/2014Excellent mexican food. Loved the tuna tostadas and the short rib tacosSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Decent meal at RomescoRowwrVIPDined on 7/11/2014We went to dinner with friends here after hearing good reviews of the food. Overall the meal was good. Our dishes were tasty. Although my chicken was dry. The filet is a good dish, but ask for it to be cooked one level less than you normally would as they overcooked ours. Also the caesar salad was swimming in dressing. For a place that comes across as more fine dining, they used thick beige diner china. Bright white is the current standard. Plus we were seated at a small table. Very difficult to fit 4 bread plates, 4 dinner plates, water glasses, wine glasses, S&P shakers, oil/vinegar cruets, etc. Not to mention the tapas we ordered. The wait staff were constantly joking with each other and loud . Like eating at Chili's.Special Features:
- Romesco great Ingredients & flavorsKarlasenDined on 7/4/2014Im a Big fan of all of Javier Plascencias restaurants, one of The most valuables chefs in mexico. Romesco offers great Ingredients with Mexican flavors in a casual menú That is great for lunch & diner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Yummy!Hungry4lifeDined on 5/20/2014I go here a lot with my husband. We love the tapas and the service is great! We have always left full and satisfied.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- SpectacularJacktheGraduateDined on 5/11/2014Our Mother's Day lunch at Romesco was flawless. We ordered everything off the tapas menus, and every one of the dozen or so was just incredible. The service was on point. We had to order dessert, and they did not disappoint either. A wonderful experience all the way around. We will return. Highly recommended!!!Special Features:
- Romesco's--Believe the Hype!!TasterschoiceDined on 5/10/2014Romesco's has been getting some very good press lately--in CityBeat, etc.--and in our opinion it is fully deserved. We have eaten here at least four times and never been disappointed. We generally get tapas and the combinations of things and sauces have real depth. For my money this is the best Mexican (and I know it is only part Mexican) restaurant in San Diego County!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delightful.OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/4/2014Took a group of people to Romesco for my wife's birthday. The setting -a strip mall (ugh) was a little off-putting, but once inside the restaurant, it is easy to forget the location. Hector, our waiter, was efficient and professional and very polite without being overly friendly or pushy. He was familiar with the menu and was helpful with tapas and wine suggestions. All of the food was very good, with interesting flavor combinations and very well prepared. The dining atmosphere is casual, but with a European feeling. There was no effort to hurry our meal or to give us a sense that we were taking too much time. Prices are very reasonable for the food and service. All in all, we are very impressedSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 4/27/2014Food is always good but sometimes service is bad when they are too busy. It takes a long time for waiter to come back. But it is not all the time only when they are busy.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious Tapas!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 4/25/2014Lots of excellent choices if tapas and the tomato soup is now my favorite in town! The tostada with fresh tuna is a must! Super fresh and vibrant. We had to order another it was so good!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing service!ChadDined on 4/23/2014My second time to Romesco and have to say I can't wait to go back. Our waiter was great and we basically put down the menu and asked him what he would have. Each item he brought out was wonderful. Before we knew it we had been there for almost three hours and didn't once feel like he was rushing us. The food is fantastic and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food. Think I have found my weekly dinner out!!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mexican winehikitam829Dined on 4/20/2014I've visited Romesco twice recently, but I couldn't make order the Mexican Wine, 'LA,Cetto Nebioro', which I like most, due to out of stock. I'd appreciate if Romesco can prepare it for the next visit, thank you. by Sam Otaki.Special Features:
- Great example of BajaMedRanchoDelReyFoodieDined on 4/16/2014Excellent food. Very creative Menu reflecting good BajaMed items. Highly recommended.Special Features:
- Sugerencias....MiriamDined on 4/12/2014no me lo tomen a mal....el lugar es muy agradable... buena presentación en los platillos. ........pero nada de lo que probamos me impacto....la única razón por la pienso volver es por disfrutar del show de flamenco. Para mi gusto, aunque es muy callado.....bien valdría tener música de fondo en un volumen que te permita seguir conversando.... Miriam GlezSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always greatCarynDined on 4/3/2014We love this place and go often. Service is great and they don't male you feel rushed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Definitely worth a tryJsonDined on 3/30/2014Sunday menu is moderately priced for the level of quality you get. I ordered the lobster ravioli and was not disappointed. About the only thing that keeps Romesco from getting 5 stars was that it took a little too long to get my food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Yum!MickeyDined on 3/23/2014I would eat here again and again. I had a Deal Certificate to try the place out....they will get my continued business. The food was excellent. I had the Braised Short Rib, my fiancé had the Fettuccine and his sister had the Lobster Ravioli. All were excellent. The bread is fresh and chewy as a good baguette should be. The salad was good, as well. The place is beautifully decorated and small enough to be considered quaint, but it has definite expensive bistro vibe without feeling pretentious. If you haven't been...GO! NOW!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Worth the trek from SDSaraDined on 3/14/2014I love Romesco and try new things every time I go. This last visit, the service was fantastic, as usual. The escabeche tostadas are outstanding.Special Features:
- Nice BistrotSepaloVIPDined on 2/27/2014An unusual experience when transpassing the door. Either Mexico City or Madrid or both, everything we tried was excellent.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Redemption in the South Bay!DineOBitesDined on 2/16/2014Romesco's is such a gem to our South Bay. We love just about everything about it and we appreciate how they are so family friendly with a simple menu for kiddos, but it's the parents that definitely benefit from all that is tasty here. Great wine list! Cocktails run on the sweet end for this diner, but otherwise, it's fabulous!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Why only NOWBennyDined on 2/15/2014We been to Chula Vista since 2010 and never occurred to me that we have this kind of restaurant that I can always come back because of greatness of food. Recommended must go to this place!!! Awesome food...Special Features:
- FoodErn103Dined on 2/14/2014The food was good but they didn't have the Paella that I wanted. The spaghetti was a lil dry compared to other times we visited. The service was to slow at the beginning.Special Features:
- Fantastic FoodFoodieGagaDined on 2/14/2014I don't know why it took us so long to get to this restaurant. I had heard good things about it for several years but the drive held us back from going there. I'm glad we finally took the excursion to South County. We had several tapas and they were as good as anything we had in Spain with a Mexican twist on several. Certainly better than some local restaurants that claim to serve authentic tapas. They also offer several Mexican wines from the Valle de Guadalupe which are hard to find in San Diego even though the area is only a two hour drive south. The service was a little off since they weren't expecting the crowd they got for lunch but our plates came out promptly and our water was regularly refilled. We would definitely return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Internationally acclaimedJolindaMDined on 2/8/2014Based on the referral from a foodie Tijuana, we made reservations and drove from an hour away to get this amazing restaurant! It was totally worth it and may have been the best food I've had in San Diego in like 25 years here. I was drawn to the Mediteranean Mexican food style and found it to meet my expectations and then some. Although you can't expect your food to come out at the same time, the operation is extremely well run, for as busy and small as this m restaurant is. However the service was four star and I cannot recommend it highly enough for an over-the-top, memorable, taste extravaganza!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Exceptional Food, Adequate ServiceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 2/8/2014We found the food to be amazing. There was clearly a lot of care and love in the details. Fantastic! Although the server was pleasant I would not say that attentive. We went completely dry on our beverages (for at least 5 minutes) at one point and needed to ask for the server to come to our table for assistance. Overall, the dining was very good and I am sure that we will return. I would strongly recommend this restaurant just for the cuisine alone.Special Features:
- Not going back!MopsieDined on 2/1/2014It took way too long for us to get our salads (35 minutes) and the tables were way too close togetherSpecial Features:
- Bonita GemTommyTEE313Dined on 1/31/2014Romesco is a fantastic spot for a nice romantic dinner or Tapas. Picture a romantic dinner with your significant other with the ambiance is similar to New York or LA fine dining...The best part is the menu prices are totally reasonable!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Modern with a Traditional FlairChezLynnesDined on 1/24/2014I have always enjoyed and appreciated the attentive service of Romesco's staff. They are friendly, helpful, polite, and always willing to make the event a pleasant memory. The food choices will treat a wide array of palates and styles from the modern bistro to the traditional Mediterranean, i.e. Spanish dishes. We were greeted promptly at the door with the attention given to good friends. Our table was ready and seated immediately. There was time to relax and settle in before being asked for our drink order. The timing was perfect allowing enough time to begin the night's celebration with our friends and family. We were never rushed and the drinks, appetizers, and meal were timed perfect. Never too rushed, and never to long of a wait.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Jerdon 5X Halo Lighted Chrome Wall Mount Mirror
This is a good solid solid unit, seems quite sturdy, and a good value. The major work was simply installing a metal electrical box in the wall. I'm a retired Naval Officer with extensive construction and electrical experience.1/9/2013 7:28 AMWas this review helpful? Yes / No (0/0)
This mirror is exactly like the one I used in a Hotel which is why I purchased this particular one. It is so easy to apply makeup and look closely at your face with the 5x magnification if you need to. I recommend this product and found it to be the best value at this site, over $100.00 at other sites. I highly recommend this product.1/9/2013 7:28 AMWas this review helpful? Yes / No (0/0)

Can A Gastric Bypass Procedure Have A Positive Impact On Diabetes?
- Volume 19 - Issue 7 - July 2006
- 6152 reads
- 0 comments
The Roux en-Y procedure is a combination of a restrictive and a malabsorptive procedure. The malabsorptive aspect decreases the amount of calories absorbed and accordingly leads to weight loss while the restrictive aspect reduces the size of the stomach. Current restrictive procedures provide a very limited gastric reservoir that fills rapidly, leading to early satiety.3
The Roux en-Y procedure begins with creating a small pouch at the top of the stomach. The pouch is used to restrict the food intake. The surgeon would make the pouch by utilizing parallel surgical staples that divide the stomach into two parts. The smaller upper portion of the stomach will serve as the new stomach whereas the remaining portion of the stomach is intact so it can make its normal secretions into the duodenum.
The next step involves cutting a portion of the small intestine (bypassing the duodenum and the first portion of the jejunum) and connecting this to the small pouch of the stomach (the Roux Limb). This causes reduced calorie and nutrient absorption.8
The Roux limb allows food to pass directly from the small pouch of the stomach into the new connection, bypassing the remaining portion of the stomach, duodenum and the first part of the jejunum. The final step involves reconnecting the unused portion of the stomach and small intestine to the Roux limb with staples. This "y-connection" allows food to mix with pancreatic fluid and bile, aiding the absorption of important vitamins and minerals.9 The surgeon can alter the length of either segment of the intestine to produce lower or higher levels of malabsorption.10
Educating Patients On The Potential Pros And Cons
When considering the possibility of referring a patient for this procedure, it is important that patients are aware of the possible risks.
Granted, with any surgery, there are always risks and possible side effects. However, bypassing of the duodenum interferes with iron and calcium absorption.3 This can lead to anemia as well as osteoporosis. Other risks include infection, gastritis, ulcers, vitamin B12 deficiency, loosening of the staples, hernia and dumping syndrome. Dumping syndrome occurs when there is a rapid emptying of the stomach contents into the small intestine.10 This happens when the patient has too much sugar or food. This can lead to nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, bloating, dizziness and sweating. Stomal stenosis may also occur. This involves a narrowing of the connection between the stomach and small intestine.
Yet studies have shown positive benefits of this procedure. A recent article from The American Journal of Surgery retrospectively looked at open Roux en-Y gastric bypass in 925 patients without mortality.11 The results from the study showed hypertension resolved in 70 percent of patients and diabetes mellitus resolved in 58 percent of patients. The series outperformed the national averages with excess weight losses of 40 percent at three months, 78 percent at 12 months and 84 percent at 18 months.11
Another study showed the effects of laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass on patients with type 2 diabetes four years after the procedure. Fasting plasma glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin concentrations returned to normal levels (83 percent) or markedly improved (17 percent) in all patients.12 A significant reduction in the use of oral antidiabetic agents (80 percent) and insulin (79 percent) followed surgical treatment.12 Patients with the shortest duration (< five years), the mildest form of type 2 diabetes (diet controlled) and the greatest weight loss after surgery were most likely to achieve complete resolution of type 2 diabetes.12
Not only does gastric bypass help to resolve issues of type 2 diabetes but the procedure has also shown to improve diabetic neuropathy, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia and obstructive sleep apnea.

DREAM is forging a partnership of downtown businesses, property owners, community leaders, residents and city government to promote economic vitality while preserving the historic character of our downtown area. This makes DREAM important for citizens and businesses alike.
- What is the National Trust Main Street Approach?
- "Main Street" is a program developed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Designed to combat deterioration of downtowns across America, the comprehensive program, called the National Main Street Approach, involves more than 1300 communities nationwide.Working to revitalize their historic central business districts, these communities use the Main Street Approach to strengthen their downtown image. One of DREAM's goals is to become a National Trust Main Street Community.
DREAM Goals

Hi guys,
If you want to have a complete experience of gaming then the best option would be this one.Be it the graphics,the environment or even the minute details of conversation of the goons & thugs,they seem so real which makes you go like 'whoa!'.The story mode is very intersting except for the loading time which could be a li'l bit frustrating.But mind you,you would have already been lost in the beauty of the city by then(i meant the work of the CG) and swinging from one tower to another taking complete control of the city and giving the worst nightmares to the dangerous minds that h...

The game is awesome. It brings your dream of being a superhero to reality. From fighting mega villains, all the way down to eavesdropping on obscure guards. Open city environment guarantees enormous replaybility. Lots to do and Joker to bear...Bah cant get better than this. Guys this is the reason we love Batman...Buy this game
Flipkart was prompt in delivering, no issues there. Maybe because i stay in Mumbai.
Angry fans can all preorder other games from somewhere else and see the difference.
Flipkart rocks!!
do not buy this... guys the game of the year edition is also the some rate........ you'll regret if you buy this....
GOTY edition includes exclusive content and DLC codes and Harley Quinn's Revenge Pack giving up to 10 hrs of gameplay for the average gamer!!!!
An awesome game..!! If you have a ps3, its a must buy! As always flipkart delivered it in 2 days.. Graphics are awesome, audio is awesome, story line is awesome. It glued me to the system for 3 hours straight. My disc also contained codes to unlock catwoman..!!
Rocksteady has outdone its previous effort in Arkham Asylum with this gem of a sequel. Few things can be as gratifying as gliding through the night sky of a thug-infested city, dive-bombing into the middle of a gang and spreading some goodness one bone-crunching punch at a time! The story is cool with neat appearances by many of the Bat's famous arch-villains, hidden trophies that will need an observant eye and often some brain-twisting, and there is a nice challenge mode that adds more gaming hours to the single player campaign. If you download the DLC, then you get to play as catwoman in... (Expand)

Sen. Joe Manchin wants to take a look at the national budget, issues related to seniors, veterans and children and achieving energy independence during the 113th Congress.
"As we begin the work of the 113th Congress, I start with fresh optimism and determination to make sure that we set our legislative priorities based on our values," Manchin said. "I have proposed legislation that West Virginians care about most – getting our financial house in order; keeping our promises to our seniors, veterans and children; achieving energy independence; addressing mass violence in a way that brings all parties to the table and finally ending the war in Afghanistan."
Among Manchin's proposals:
No budget, no pay: A bill that would prohibit members of Congress from receiving pay if both chambers of Congress fail to approve a resolution on the budget for the upcoming fiscal year before the end of the current fiscal year.
Military child care: This bill would direct the Government Accountability Office to review contracted hiring procedures at Department of Defense day cares.
The EPA Fair Play Act: This proposal would rein in the Environmental Protection Agency's overreach, preventing the agency from revoking permits that have already been legally granted, which would protect jobs in West Virginia and promote American energy independence and security.

Walking in the Footsteps of Ancient Man at Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania
Inside the modest museum, run your hand across the plaster cast of the 3.75 million year old fossilized footprints that Mary Leakey discovered at nearby Laetoli in 1978, proving that our human ancestors walked in an upright position. Outside look down into Olduvai Gorge, where the Leakeys found fragments of teeth and a skull that were from a male hominid whom they called Nutcracker Man because of his huge teeth. Each year, teams of archeologists and volunteers return to the "Cradle of Mankind" to catalog the wealth of stone tools, animal bones, and early hominid remains that continue to be revealed following the heavy rains that fall from March through May.

WayForward making Adventure Time DS!
"Who wants to play video games?"
Pendleton Ward, creator of Cartoon Network's cherished program Adventure Time, has revealed that the show will receive a DS game later this year, courtesy of WayForward Technologies (Aliens: Infestation Mighty Switch Force).
I'm a little disappointed that it's not for 3DS (a few early reports have called it a 3DS project), I still can't wait to see what they do with Beemo in the game.
There are no details beyond what we've already shared, but Ward posted some fun sketches that you can see after the break. Next up: a Regular Show game. Yeahhh-uh.

Inter Milan extend unbeaten run after drawing with Palermo
F.C. Internazionale kept their unbeaten start to the season intact after drawing 1-1 at Palermo.
Inter's season-long shutout streak lasted all of three minutes when Franco Vazquez stole the ball from Nemanja Vidic and scored from a tight angle. It was a bad mistake from Vidic, who has struggled so far in adapting to Serie A, while Samir Handanovic could have dealt with the shot better.
Vazguez's goal ended an impressive 453 minutes without a goal conceded that Handanovic had put together to start...

After a good annual review, my supervisor told me I was up for a raise pending approval of the vice president.
A month later, my supervisor called me into his office and told me the VP had refused to approve the raise.
His reason? I clearly wasn't doing my job.
Every time he saw me, I was either chatting with someone in the lobby or talking on the phone.
Wanting to embarrass his new secretary a bit and let her know where they stood, he smugly told her to enter 'penis.'
Without blinking or saying a word, she entered the password.
She then almost died laughing at the computer's response: PASSWORD REJECTED. NOT LONG ENOUGH.
The bewildered exec didn't know what she meant at first until she pointed.
He quickly zipped up and said, "I hope you didn't see my super deluxe Cadillac."
"Nope." she replied with a grin. "Just an old pink Volkswagen with 2 flat tires."
A big corporation recently hired several cannibals.
|Pleasant telephone manner - Have a voice like 1-900-XXX-XXXX
Administrative Assistant - Bad job with a title.
Receptionist, Professional Appearance Important - $20K a year job that requires a $100K year wardrobe
Secretary - Woman only job with the responsibilities of management and the wages of a migrant worker.
I went to breakfast knowing my wife would be pleasant
and say "Happy Birthday," and probably have a present for me.
She didn't even say "Good Morning," let alone any "Happy Birthday."
I thought, "Well, that's wives for you, the children will remember."
The children came in to breakfast and didn't say a word.
When I started to leave for the office I was feeling pretty low and despondent.
As I walked into my office, my secretary, Janet, said, "Good morning,
boss. Happy Birthday"
We went to lunch.
On the way back to the office, she said, "You know, it's such a beautiful
After arriving at her apartment she said,
She went into the bedroom and, in about six minutes, she came out carrying
a big birthday cake,
And there I sat...on the couch...naked.

Your Clever Toddler in Week 53: Recognizing His Own Name
What your child learns this week
Week 53 Brain Booster
If you're on the phone with Grandma and you start relaying a story about how your toddler pulled herself up on the coffee table and proceed to pour her sippy cup of water all over the table and onto the floor, you'll likely see interest (OK, maybe even a sly grin) written all over your child's face.
Therefore, be careful. Get in the habit of talking to Gram and others about the positive and pleasant behaviors your child exhibits, and resist recounting just those that are negative or perplexing. For now your child doesn't understand every word, but he does know when he's the topic of a conversation.
As your child's receptive language skills improve, when you talk about him and what he's done you inadvertently reinforce the actions you're describing—both positive and negative. Sure, cute anecdotes may include tales of favorable behaviors you'd like your child to repeat, but if you tell the whole family about how he wielded a four-letter word in the grocery store … well, that's the sort of negative behavior you don't want an encore performance of, which is precisely what you might get if your child overhears you.
Coming soon, look forward to: Week 54: More Learning about Love and Trust
Review the most recent accomplishments: Week 52: The Importance of Pointing

6 music
Stuporcollider – Now Available IN YOUR EARS…
Two magpies crossed my path on the way to work this morning. Now I'm not typically superstitious but I had been planning on uploading the first of my new music podcasts today (OK, I had planned to put them up at the weekend too but I love me some procrastination), and I suppose this could be seen as a good omen.
And yet a better omen became apparent through twitter. 6 Music has been saved. Faithful readers (and the people monitoring my web use) will recall a klaxon call from these very pages, rallying music lovers everywhere to fight for the only radio station playing even half-way decent music in the UK. Well the BBC trust have seen sense and agreed that 'the case has not been made' to close the digital station due to "significant public support for the service".
I can think of no better day to try to launch the first stuporcollider podcast, highlighting new music. So with that in mind…

Saving 6 Music
The BBC and I are no longer as close as we once were. First there was that whole homeopathy thing, and now they're threatening to kill off 6 Music. Mark Thompson, Director-General of the BBC and all round twat has been steadily decreasing the cultural value of the once-proud institution, and now he is recommending the closure of 6 music and the Asian Network by the end of 2011.
For the last 6 months or so I have been listening to podcasts of some of the finest new music, and classic, iconic songs from people that actually understand music. Radio 1 is at best an infuriating alternative and at worst a festuring turd polished up and sold to you as popular music. You're not 3008, I won't poke your face and it's definately not Bonkaas, it's shit. FACT.
The report states: "Given the strength of its popular music radio offering from Radio 1 and 2 and the opportunity to increase the distinctiveness of Radio 2, the BBC has concluded that the most effective and efficient way to deliver popular music on radio is to focus investment on these core networks." I tend to agree more with Eddie Argos; "The record buying public shouldn't be voting."
Surely the whole point in championing new, independant, music is precisely that it isn't yet popular since the record labels hosting the talent can't afford the publicity and air time for a radio 1 heavy rotation that seems to go hand in hand with chart success. Some songs I'm not going to like despite how many times you play it, ok. I think the RATM thing over Christmas showed that there IS a musical revolution happening, sick of Scowell's chokehold on our music, and this is why 6 music is so important.
Luckily the gallows are not on the horizon (metaphorically and musically) for 6 Music just yet and there is plenty we can do to help save it:
- Listen to it. Pretty obvious really but some estimates already suggest thet the listening audience has already doubled since the news first broke. If you can listen to it through the iPlayer, even better, as this is one of the key measures of the stations success
- Sign the petition to BBC Chief Sir Michael Lyons.
- Use 36 Degrees' template to contact the BBC trust
- Email your thoughts to :-
And if none of this works?
Turn off your radio…

Review: Torchlight II delivers a fantastic experience from beginning to end
[Continued] Page 2
Following in the footsteps of its predecessors, pets return and provide both a moral and physical support for your character. Your primal companion travels alongside you and assists you in battle, most of the time dealing a considerable amount of damage, as well as tanking quite a bit of hits. While you're stuck with the pet you choose when you create your character, it can take on various animal forms due to various caught fish in the game which shapeshift your little buddy. In addition, your pet serves as a delivery man of sorts, since you can stash your items into your pets inventory and then shipping it off to sell them. Your pet will leave your side only for two minutes and will return with gold streamlining the selling process since you no longer have to return to town to sell goods.
While old things return, new systems make their debut in the sequel, one of which is called the Charge Bar. Each class comes with a meter at the center bottom of the screen. By killing enemies and attacking them, you can fill up your bar and then expend the amount you accumulated for something special. For instance, Outlanders receive a buff that makes them considerably formidable. This bar further distinguishes the classes giving it that unique "umph." The feature is interesting to say the least since it adds both diversity and depth to a genre lacking in innovation.
What is combat without enemies to fight against? There are plenty of enemies for you to wrestle with in Torchlight II and while they may seem like pushovers in the early stages of the game, they're hardly so later on. While it's simple to just brute force your way, using skills, dodging, and kiting will help to move encounters along much faster. Each enemy won't up put up a challenge in mere numbers, both in quantity and in the amount of damage they dish out. Special abilities such as pulling you in, pushing you away, or homing missile enemies will mix things up making sure you're on your toes. If you do happen to fall it's a hefty sum of gold to respawn where you're at so it's advised that you fight well.
Gold isn't quite easy to acquire in the game, oddly, and this is due to how much gold is required in order to deck out your character. It takes an exorbitant amount to enchant weapons, disassemble items, or do anything. Luckily, you can easily get by without spending any gold and saving up your money for whenever you want to splurge for whatever reason is your best bet.
Although Torchlight II stands up extremely well in terms of customization, combat, and loot-grabbing addictiveness, the game fails to deliver narratively. The intricate and stylistic cutscenes that feel like a Saturday-morning cartoon sets the premise for a fight between good and evil. Beyond that it's quite unclear what exactly you're fighting for, personally, leading to a huge disconnect between you and the world.
Not all things are sad in regards to the story. Due to its narrative, Torchlight II takes you to locales with varying visual aesthetic. This nice change of pace holds monotony and boredom at bay. You never overstay your welcome in one place for too long and often times you're swept away to a new land at the perfect time. It's still disappointing that the narrative ruins what could've attributed to an otherwise stellar game.
Torchlight II doesn't reinvent the genre nor does it takes leaps and bounds to push it towards a certain direction. Playing it safe with new and old systems that refine what's already there, you might think that the game isn't worth your time. However, the time that could be invested in this addictive, fabulous, and fun title, is well worth it. The verdict is thus: great!

Two more years for Drayton sewers
County Council approved more time for south Drayton Harbor
residents to finalize arrangements for sewer to come into
the area.
At the December 11 county council meeting the vote was 4-2, with Dan McShane and Connie Hoag opposed, to give proponents of sewer for the area another two years to finance and design a system extension from Birch Bay or Blaine.
The first ordinance, adopted in November, 1999 put south Drayton Harbor into the Blaine short term planning area, which allows it to be served with municipal sewers under the county growth policies. Failing septic systems in the area were potentially affecting water quality in the harbor and a group of residents felt sewer was a better answer than septic replacement.
There is a feeling that the assessments (to extend the sewer) will be too high and its going to take some outside funding, said Birch Bay Water and Sewer District manager Roger Brown, who has been working with residents on the sewer. The most likely source of that funding would be a regional sewer system. The regional system that would join Blaine and Birch Bay would pass through the south Dratyon Harbor area..

Sentiment - bordering on outrage - best describes how many NHL people responded to the news of Dale Tallon's dismissal as general manager of the Chicago Blackhawks.
However, anyone shocked by this move by team president John McDonough didn't pay attention to the constant speculation of Tallon's demise at varying points of the season.
Some close to the organization believe McDonough was looking for an opportunity to make his move which was made very difficult by Chicago's trip to the western conference final and a season most around the league would consider a great success.
There's no question the Blackhawks' recent fumble with qualifying offers (that weren't filed on time for the team's restricted free agents) was an enormous unforced error and while it has been suggested Tallon wasn't responsible for the blunder, as GM he took responsibility.
Was this mistake - as costly as it turned out to be - really his undoing?
What we know is there is a groundswell of sympathy for Tallon, who, upon learning his fate, was also handed a two-year contract to act as an advisor at the same rate of pay he was earning as Chicago's general manager.
This groundswell also extends to former Blackhawks forward Martin Havlat, who - through the direct link of Twitter - continues to tease Hawks fans with suggestive tweets that indicate Dale Tallon's firing was very predictable. "Tip of the iceberg," Havlat wrote in one tweet. In another, he asked, "shouldn't fans know the truth?"
Shortly after that, Havlat's Twitter account crashed because of an overload of responses.
Yes, Chicago Blackhawks fans want to know the truth.
They want to know what Havlat believes led to Tallon's firing.
Hawks fans want to understand how a negotiation that lasted better than three months, focused on keeping Havlat a Hawk long term and involved his agent Allan Walsh, Tallon and now Chicago's newest GM, Stan Bowman, mysteriously eroded.
Aside from reaching out via Twitter, Havlat has been silent and wants to move on and focus on his new home and opportunity with the Minnesota Wild. However, Havlat also wants to clear the air and set the record straight and has offered his thoughts exclusively to TSN.ca on a number of issues he observed while in Chicago, starting with his failed negotiation.
"My negotiation with Chicago was not between Dale and my agent, it was between Dale and McDonough," Havlat said "Why? Because McDonough couldn't stand that Dale was so successful and getting the credit for building the Hawks from a last place team to making the Conference Final in three short years. Remember, we were also the youngest team in the NHL last year."
"I was too closely identified with Dale," he continued. "McDonough knew long ago he was going to fire Dale. He wanted someone he could claim as his own He wanted to stand up at the convention and claim credit for signing this guy or that guy."
Havlat's candor won't be easily accepted by the Blackhawks, and there may be claims of this being nothing more than the backlash of a jilted player, but Havlat's appreciation for Dale Tallon is what drove him to speak up mere hours after Tallon's firing was confirmed.
"Dale and I were very close and I stand for loyalty. The players loved Dale and they are with him. Every single player on that team is with Dale. I still talk to the guys all the time, hockey players know a phony when they see one."
"I was part of a very special team but that team doesn't exist anymore. I am really disappointed that Rocky Wirtz would let something like this happen," Havlat told TSN.ca.
Havlat's parting request follows up on a tweet sent on Tuesday. A challenge for the Blackhawks faithful who may share his views on Chicago's future.
"It's up to the fans now to be heard on this. If you care about the direction of the team, do something about it," Havlat concluded.
That's powerful stuff from a player who loved Chicago, loved the Blackhawks organization, and clearly has a deep connection with Dale Tallon, now the former general manager.

What Can I Do With Chocolate Pasta?
Good Questions
Q: My mother in law brought back some chocolate pasta from a recent trip to Italy. I have no idea what to do with it.
Any suggestions?
Sent by Katie
Editor: Katie, I'm intrigued by this recipe for chocolate pasta with Irish cream sauce:

Readers, what would you do with chocolate pasta?

I see in the link above that the author felt it was OTT to make a sweet dish with it, so maybe something savoury, like beef strips/cubes and a hint of chilli?
I like the combination of coarse salt and chocolate, so maybe keep it plain with butter and sprinkled salt.
One of the best dishes I have ever eaten in Philadelphia is at Le Virtu, a chocolate ravioli with a lemon ricotta filling and a butter/sage sauce. I agree with carinb, love sweet and salt and would mimic the Le Virtu recipe if I didn't fear I would absolutely butcher one of the greatest pastas to grace my palate.
At a visit to Felidia's in NYC I had an excellent chocolate papardelle with a ragu of wild boar!
My favorite way to eat chocolate pasta is to make a cream sauce, toss is with peas and prosciutto. Really simple but crazy good. Had it at a restaurant and craved it for a long time after til I finally just made it myself.
I wonder if a red sauce made of reduced balsamic vinegar and strawberries would work... a little basil and some good ricotta on top would be a nice touch and a fun visual play on your typical spaghetti.
I think something with smoky chiles would pair well with chocolate pasta. Maybe a quick tomato sauce with some chile en adobo? Or some smoky paprika?
I agree with karenenen: I once had a strawberry-balsamic-oreo cookie ice cream that was delicious and can only assume that combo would translate well over to chocolate pasta.
And Kris0218 has a good suggestion with the chiles, maybe with some cinnamon too!
And I think a sweet curry-coconut sauce with cashews would be good.
Maybe a noodle kugel?
Was just going to say kugel :)
I'd jump on the chocolate and bacon trend and add some bacon crumbles and maybe some sweet scallops with a little chili pepper infused olive oil.
I just saw this recipe at Heather Christo Cooks - looks delicious!
I made chocolate pasta once. The only thing I liked with it was to mix the cooked pasta with raspberry jam and whipped cream. Made a decent dessert but in the end I wound up tossing most of it as unusable.
Oo, I used to get cocao ravioli stuffed with butternut squash in a sage brown butter sauce. I'll bet the squash/sage combo would work well with any choco-pasta.
I went running today and popped in a chocolate store during my run. Ended up with a bag of chocolate pasta! Just made Chocolate Pasta con Chilies and Ricotta. Really enjoyed it!
