- Great restaurantOpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 9/20/2014Loved the deviled eggs and trout starters. Both pork dishes were delicious! The cocktails were fabulous - we asked the bartender to make his own creations. I'd highly encourage friends to try this restaurant. Staff was knowledgeable and very friendly!Special Features:
- nycgirlVIPDined on 9/18/2014good night but not worth putting up with the dirt & slum of Market Street en route. The chairs are extremely uncomfortable.
- Great for preshow or just any daymiriVIPDined on 9/18/2014This is a great spot to go before the theatre. The food is perfect to share so you can sample a lot of different things. We haven't had a bad dish yet.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2003VIPDined on 9/17/2014This restaurant has no real signage so it would be easy to walk or drive right past it. In fact, months ago my husband and I did drive past it and went around the block several times looking for it and we finally gave up! You have to have the exact address (which we didn't previously) to find it. What's up with that?! You know the old adage: "A business with no sign is a sign of no business." Although not actually the case with Alta but it would certainly help.Special Features:
- Great food, but more of a bar sceneNoelNoelVIPDined on 9/12/2014The place was packed on a Friday night. It's a young, urban, loud, crowded scene. That said, the food is imaginative, flavorful and delicious. Although it seems tacky that they serve chips instead of fries with their burger. I might like Alta better for lunch, when it's hopefully quieter.Special Features:
- Great drinks, good food,bad serviceSpicyBeefDined on 9/10/2014Great drinks, good food,but bad service. Even the manager was rude to my party and I. Too many better places around to come back.Special Features:
- Close to TheatreBzerkeleyVIPDined on 9/9/2014Not only is this a fun place but it has the added bonus of being top of our list for pre theatre (Orpheum). Food is interesting and nicely done. Service could be smoother and pacing could have been better. If you like chichiarrones then you have to try the beef tendons.I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2013VIPDined on 9/6/2014Bland porridge. Everything else was overly acidic.
- Pleasantly surprised!alimaxVIPDined on 9/6/2014We got dinner at Alta before a show at Orpheum theatre with group of friends and we all loved it. It was six of us and we ordered pretty much everything on the menu as it wasn't very long. Every dish was delicious! The service was great, plus our waiter looked like a model :-)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Alta CaSharoncsVIPDined on 9/5/2014Had a nice meal at Alta was thrilled that the sandwich of the day was a BLAT. I am getting pretty tired of the lunch menu - it could use a change. Of course don't take off the deviled eggs!Special Features:
- We'll be back........foodofthegodsDined on 9/3/2014Arrived @ 5 for a 6 reservation on a Wednesday. No one dining yet but a few at the bar. Got a table after a bit of a wait since no one was working the door yet. Placed was full by the time we left for the theater. Small menu but enough to choose from for us both. Had the deviled eggs and cucumber/avocado soup. Both very good. Wife asked to have the salmon fully cooked instead of lightly steamed and it was done just right. I had the pork shoulder which was quite tasty also. Warm cookies for desert.......3 large ones. The drinks were strong but they were out of Mt Gay.... The service was attentive and polite. No problems and we definitely would return if we are in the neighborhood again. Definitely a bar scene going on for the younger crowd.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Hipster Spot w/Amazing Food & WineAnnabellaVIPDined on 8/31/2014We made our reservation same day and we were so pleased with the food, wine and ambiance. The only drawback was the service. Our waiter was not as attentive as we would have liked. We noticed that the waiter was taking the order of a party of two sitting at a table that we chose not to sit at. This means we were seated first but were not waited on first. We will return since the food and wine were exceptional.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Thanks,Adrienne!TokyoDined on 8/31/2014All staff did a good service. I want to revisit in the case of San Francisco next trip.Special Features:
- Lovely setting, sublime foodGMY68Dined on 8/30/2014We booked dinner here on the spur of the moment, and had no trouble getting a reservation for the same day (it was a Saturday). We'd heard good things about this place and had eaten (once!) at Coi, when they still had an a la carte menu and you didn't have to spend a year's salary eating there! Alta was fantastic in pretty much every way. The design of the place is impressive, especially the huge wall of bottles and the lovely bar, and it's always fun having an open kitchen. The noise level was just perfect, i.e., quiet background music, excellent sound proofing, really easy to chat with your date or friends. And, best of all, the food was magical. Crisp salad, corn pierogi, oysters with grapes, braised beef, and peach cobbler. Wow!Special Features:
- Try the oxtailXenosDined on 8/29/2014I enjoyed almost everything I ate, but the oxtail was a revelation. The first time I tried it I was shocked with how good it was. It was very different from anything I'd ever eaten before, and it was fantastic. The other dishes I tried were the pork trotter, the puffed beef tendon, the warm olives, and the bialys. All of those were fantastic except for the bialys. The bread part of the bialy was very tasty, but the stuffing was overly smoked. It tasted almost like liquid smoke, and it overpowered the bread part. that's a small complaint though, as everything else was great.Special Features:
- Buck the trendlongtimelocalDined on 8/28/2014Quality food, wine, service, friendly staff and lively art work. With the mid-market area undergoing a massive transformation, this gem of a restaurant will hopefully outlive any trend that may be occurring in that area. Easy access from Muni and BART.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good service. Tasty but rich.NotFussyDined on 8/23/2014The service was great and we had a good time. The food was really tasty, but too rich for me. If you like really strong flavors, and plenty of salt and butter, then you'll love it.Special Features:
- Gorgeous and tasty foodTonyTDined on 8/21/2014Really well composed plates - both visually and in terns of flavor. Curious that they harp on it being "American" as I found the food to have a very eastern euro or even Jewish soul food flavor - lots of dill, sour cream, smoked fish, pastrami and many other influences. The service is uneven - some outstanding team members and some well meaning amateurs. The wines by the glass are overpriced. They want $13 for a glass of the Unti Petite Frere and that's about what they paid for the bottle. Dessert is problematic as they base everything around soft seve ice cream - yuck! And I do like this restaurant and recommend the food highly.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful - Highly recommend!foodismyfavoriteDined on 8/20/2014The head chef is incredibly hospitable & talented, wait staff is knowledgeable & attentive, the food was fantastic! We had the bialys with pastrami, some of the best I have tried, obviously a chef's specialty. We had the avocado soup, so creamy I couldn't believe it is vegan. The trout & pickled vegetables with bialy chips, I think the pickled vegetables are another chef developed specialty. We had the steamed salmon, perfectly cooked with an everything-bagel seasoning & a delicious yogurt sauce, not to mention the fermented summer squash decorating the plate. The pork was beautiful, along with fresh clams & fava beans - the sauce was rich & tasty. Finally, we finished with soft serve & digestifs, all homemade & delicious.Special Features:
- Alta CaSharoncsVIPDined on 8/12/2014I have been to Alta only for lunch so I have never been able to enjoy the great libations. I have to say the food is really good, but because the menu is fairly limited I am already getting king of bored. Can they add some new dishes or specials? The staff must be bored too. I think that's why it is not often too busy at lunch time. Love the deviled eggs and the ice cream though.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 8/9/2014food was great. service was slow and unattentive. could have use done more staff to complete the whole experienceSpecial Features:
- Music not suitable, very loudTravelerDined on 7/29/2014Very loud music, not suitable restaurant music. Impossible to have a conversation. Service, average. Not very friendly or attentive.Special Features:
- Amateurish service needs addressingmtf419VIPDined on 7/24/2014On the plus side, the food and atmosphere at Alta CA are very good. The open kitchen turns out some very flavorful dishes like beet salad, goat cheese on toast, and buckwheat porridge. Unfortunately, the cocktails and service leave much to be desired. Outside of the kitchen, the staff is rather green and not well versed in fine dining etiquette (in one example of this plates were removed prematurely whilst diners were still chewing). It's a great location, and an otherwise fun experience, so hopefully they invest in additional training for the staff.
- My new favorite!AnonymousVIPDined on 7/23/2014I LOVE THIS PLACE! My new favorite spot in SF, brought my parents here for my Dad's birthday and everything was excellent. Plus, the frozen yogurt for dessert is awesome :)
- Will definitely go backOpenTable Diner Since 2004Dined on 7/17/2014Been there twice. The first time everything was outstanding, service too. The beef tendon puffs are a must. The second time was good, but our server was slightly surly, and the braised beef was just ok. My friend ordered a glass of wine, tasted it, thought it was off, and had me taste it. It was definitely off - undrinkable. It's ok, it happens. We told our server and her response was "it's unfiltered." It might have been unfiltered, but it was also corked. To her credit, she took it away and removed it from the check. When both patrons say the wine is bad, don't make excuses, just get the customer another glass. The chicken was fantastic, and the pickled devils eggs were great! The soft serve ice cream for dessert is a must.Special Features:
- great addition to dining scenesfeaterVIPDined on 7/5/2014A very pleasant surprise in this "up and coming" stretch of Market -- the service was attentive and helpful, the timing was perfect, and the dishes we had were inspired and delicious. This is the kind of place you want as a reliable standby to which you'll return frequently (especially since it has late hours and is a great option for after a movie or performance). There are plenty of bar seats, and the restaurant seating is arranged around the bar and in front of a wall of wine & liquor bottles creating an interesting visual (though they might want to tweak the bottle wall arrangement for seismic safety!) The volume of the music / chatter was also just right (too many restaurants are too loud for conversation).Special Features:
- Neighborhood GemoregonduckbradVIPDined on 7/2/2014We were *very* pleasantly surprised by our visit. The food was top-notch, the service: very attentive (and extremely knowledgable about the menu and options, working around food allergies), and the atmosphere was fun for the foodie set. We'll DEFINITELY be back again. A few things of note: the deep-fried beef tendons are to die for, the wine list is extensive and notable, and the (full) bar seemed to be hopping. Our server let us know that they were open very late, too--we'll be taking full advantage of this, as we live across the street! A true neighborhood gem!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great spot for theatre dining!OpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 6/28/2014Very convenient for pre-theatre dining. The food is absolutely delicious! Cannot wait to go again and again!Special Features:
- Not too shabbyYCL28VIPDined on 6/27/2014Great date night spot, although the surrounding area leave something to be desire. Fiancé and I came for our Friday date night. This was a version of modernized more foo foo Jewish deli. The bialys were a delight with flavorful sautéed onion bits. The thinly sliced pastrami was a little disappointing. The Curious George cocktail was a refreshing lovely spin of whisky sour. The best dish of the evening was the pea pierogi with a flavorful sauce. It was not dense and heavy tasting.
- Terrible price/quality ratiosanfrandanDined on 6/26/2014The food was good, the service was fine, but ---- I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone except, perhaps, the Twitterati. The bill for the 2 of us was $85 for 3 small plates and 1 large, one glass of wine and a beer. Frequently restaurant portions are too big --- here, they were on the small size and we left hungry. The prices for wine were ridiculous ---- $11 and up for a single glass AND the pour was quite small. When I asked for bread to accompany the food, the waiter pointed to the Bialys on the menu, which cost $6. I can't remember going to a good restaurant where they charged for bread. The best restaurants seem to have Acme sourdough --- here they had only bialys, which are great for brunch, but at dinner?
- DeliciousSFgourmandVIPDined on 6/21/2014Patterson's food at ALTA CA is top notch: sophisticated, but not overly tricky and seriously delicious. The staff is super friendly, but so many people help with each table that some requests (such as more water) got lost in the shuffle. The music was schizophrenic - some tracks had a great groove and others were just too loud and cacophonous. The block on Market is nasty, but that will be short lived. I'll definitely be going back.Special Features:
- good food, service somewhat lackingOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 6/21/2014The food was memorable, the wait service was as well, but for less than stellar reasons. unique flavors and creative dishes. Service was somewhat arrogant and lax. Felt like we were annoying the staff by our mere presence on thier turf and they did not seem to be loving their job (did I see her roll her eyes?). Smile - I am paying for service, as well as food - and you might even help generate bigger tips, it's a win/win!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I was hoping for better...BerkeleyFoodieVIPDined on 6/14/2014I was looking forward to trying Patterson's approach to cuisine. I would say that the food was well prepared and tasty... but the service was sadly lacking. My friend arrived early and asked for a tea list. The server then came over, asked her if she wanted something to drink and my friend told her that she was waiting for the tea list. The server said "OK" and walked away. The tea list never arrived. When I arrived (I ordered wine in case she worried this was a "cheap meal"), the server recommended that each of us order 2, but preferably 3 dishes. My friend is a very slim petite woman, I am slim-average sized and we could never have eaten 6 dishes. It seemed the server was trying to get us to order a lot of food to run the bill up.Special Features:
- SO good. Go!NextnextaimeeDined on 6/7/2014Delicious plates served by attentive warm team. Braised beef and salmon are favorite dishes. Cocktails perfectly compliment the menu. Beautifully designed space. Will make this spot a habit.Special Features:
- Another Daniel Patterson gemxWRLDined on 6/6/2014The lunch menu offers variety--a few standards like the burger (which we ordered), but a lot of thoughtful items we're not used to seeing like bialys with smoked fish (which we also ordered) and confit chicken. We also had the deviled egg appetizer and chocolate chip cookies for dessert. Each item was a cut above what we were expecting, and this is typical of Daniel Patterson's restaurants, where great thought seems to go into re-imagining and refining dishes until they're perfect. The late lunch vibe is very low key. We had an extraordinary meal, took our time savoring all the goodness, and had an experience that was relaxing as well as satisfying.Special Features:
- Refined, Delicious Mid Market SpotcravensVIPDined on 6/6/2014From the outside, the space is nondescript and if you didn't know if was there, you could walk right by. Inside, the space is funky, warm, and clever with a solid menu to match. Menu options abound with several well prepared proteins accompanied by nice veg/starch options. The lunch and dinner menus are both well curated and there are a lot of interesting options. Highly recommend the deviled eggs and puffed beef tendon as appetizers. The smoked pork trotter w soft egg and brussel sprouts is my favorite dish I've had so far - great balance of textures and flavors and a nice presentation as well. Highly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Incredilby...OpenTable Diner Since 2004VIPDined on 6/4/2014... Good Tasting Food ... Interesting Cocktails ... Small Portions A couple who doesn't mind coming out hungry after $80 to $100 on food alone might like this tapas place. Given that Twitter is right across the street, maybe there's a baked-in clientele. But take a group of 5 or 6, and you'll scavenge plates for tiny morsels to ensure that all have minimal food to absorb the alcohol consumed. We ordered the shaved asparagus/beet salad. At most it had 1 1/2 stalks of asparagus on the plate, maybe 8 almonds, and about 4 beet halves (beets used were smaller than golf balls). TWO of these would be a minimalist's delight. Mushroom porridge (tasty) was probably 3/4 cup of food if not spread out. And, no bread. But flavors/prep were exc.Special Features:
- Try the Beef Tendons! Unbelievable!CosmoGirlDined on 6/3/2014Food, cocktails, service, cleanliness, atmosphere- Fantastic! Only complaints are: Very loud (was packed!) and they had music booming, too. Chairs were hard wood so not very comfortable.Special Features:
- JoeScottDined on 5/31/2014Love the fact that my Van Ness/Market neighborhood has another great restaurant offering terrific food and excellent service at a reasonable price.Special Features:
- Love this place!OpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 5/30/2014Would def come back. Wonderful food, great service.Special Features:

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - A Sioux Falls teenager says that when a man threatened her with a knife Friday night she showed him her knife and he fled.
Officer Sam Clemens says the girl was driving at 19th and Cleveland and slowed to turn when the suspect opened her car door and displayed a knife. Clemens says she produced her own knife and he took off running.
Clemens says she was driving slow enough that he was able to open the door as she was turning through the intersection. It doesn't appear that the suspect demanded anything.
Clemens says the girl describes the suspect as a black male wearing dark colored clothes.

Master biographer Doris Kearns Goodwin has tackled the life of Theodore Roosevelt with gusto and insight, and this is no surprise. After all, her works on Abraham Lincoln, Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, Lyndon Johnson and the Kennedys have helped shape our current notions of what a successful president should be.
With his physical courage, raw ambition and intellectual reach, Teddy Roosevelt epitomized the role of a dynamic chief executive, and Goodwin ably captures his intensity and historical importance in The Bully Pulpit. The title is the phrase Roosevelt coined to dramatize how he used the presidency as a platform to advance his agenda.
But TR has already had his share of splendid biographies. What sets this new work by Goodwin apart are a sympathetic portrait of William Howard Taft and her examination of how crusading journalists helped fuel the reforms of the progressive era and boost Roosevelt's efforts to curb the power of Standard Oil and other monopolies.
Roosevelt's colorful career — leading the Rough Riders up San Juan Hill in Cuba during the Spanish-American War, writing 40 books and countless articles, conducting safaris in Africa and the Amazon — obscures a less obvious side. He was a skilled politician who cultivated the press and collaborated closely with them to expose corruption and aid his programs.
At the turn of the century, a remarkable stable of reporters wrote for McClure's magazine. Lincoln Steffens, Ray Stannard Baker and William Allen White were given the time and freedom by Sam McClure to delve deep into urban poverty, machine politics and the clash of industry and labor.
The star of the group may have been Ida Tarbell, whose serialized expose of Standard Oil and founder John D. Rockefeller in 1903 helped President Roosevelt push through Congress measures that reined in giant trusts. McClure's circulation soared, and Goodwin shows how a growing, literate middle class hungered for reliable information at a time of economic uncertainty.
The narrative spine of Bully Pulpit is the long, close friendship of two young Republican reformers — Roosevelt of New York and Taft of Ohio — who aided each other's careers. With TR's love of a good political fight and Taft's calm, judicial temperament, they were an effective team. When Roosevelt left the White House, he worked tirelessly to elect Taft as his successor in 1908.
With access to hundreds of letters the two wrote to each other, Goodwin shows how the relationship flourished and then unraveled in a Shakespearean drama of betrayal. Taft's one term as president was unhappy. His vivacious wife Nellie suffered a stroke. His accomplishments and political skill could not match Roosevelt's.
When Roosevelt returned from a long overseas trip, he did not need much prompting from progressives who were disappointed with Taft. TR challenged Taft for the GOP nomination, and when he lost, launched a new Progressive Party to retake the White House. In the epic three-way race of 1912, Roosevelt and Taft traded bitter attacks, split the GOP — and lost to Democrat Woodrow Wilson.
Many of Roosevelt's goals, such as labor rights, women's suffrage and popular election of senators, were eventually achieved, but Goodwin sees TR's third-party race as something of a quixotic vanity project. The personality of this "great rumbling, roaring, jocund tornado of a man," as William Allen White described him, simply overwhelmed the issues.
As for Taft, losing the presidency was not a tragedy. Nine years later, at the age of 64, he achieved his dream job when he became chief justice of the Supreme Court. Taft and Roosevelt even reconciled a few months before Roosevelt's death, to Taft's great relief. "Had he died in a hostile state of mind toward me, I would have mourned the fact all my life," he told TR's sister.
When Roosevelt and Taft were allied, they showed how effective government could make a difference in people's lives. But as Goodwin makes clear, they could not have done it without a press, led by magazines like McClure's, that laid bare the nation's problems at the dawn of the 20th and mobilized public opinion.
Sam McClure and his "muckrakers" showed in detail how big money dominated politics and monopolies exercised great power. To counterbalance that, "there is no one left — none but all of us," he told his readers. It's an exhortation that holds true today.

With Donald Trump falling from 26% in the polls to 8% in a matter of weeks, I doubt that he will announce his candidacy for president. He will linger on for as long as he can get publicity. We may as well enjoy him while we can.
Trump has finally revealed what everyone wants to know about him. No, not his real estate successes, but his hair.
Warning: Please don't try this at home. Your hair may turn out like the Donald's.
"OK, what I do is, wash it with Head and Shoulders. I don't dry it, though. I let it dry by itself. It takes about an hour. Then I read papers and things," he said. "I then comb my hair. Yes, I do use a comb … Do I comb it forward? No, I don't comb it forward."
"I actually don't have a bad hairline," Trump said. "When you think about it, it's not bad. I mean, I get a lot of credit for comb-overs. But it's not really a comb-over. It's sort of a little bit forward and back. I've combed it the same way for years. Same thing, every time."
I want to know who gives him credit for comb-overs, except for severely balding men.
If you ever have a chance to look at a close-up of his hair, it has a thatched, layered look. Very weird.

EAST LANSING, MI (WHTC) - State Representative Bob Genetski's drunken driving case is slated to go to trial in East Lansing District Court today. The two-term Republican from Saugatuck's vehicle was pulled over by a Michigan State University campus patrolman last January following the State of the State address, and a blood test taken two hours after the incident indicated an alcohol count of .08, which is the state's drunken driving limit. If convicted, Genetski could get 93 days in jail, a 500-dollar fine, up to 360 hours of community service, and other penalties. He currently is on a one-year restricted license for refusing to take a breathalyzer test at the scene, and is only able to drive to and from his legislative duties. Genetski defeated Randy Brink in the Republican Primary in August and faces Democrat Stuart Peet of Shelbyville in the November General Election for a third and final term in the state House.

Heavy Rain Movie Adapted by 'Deadwood' CreatorFollowing reports and much speculation, Variety has confirmation that Quantic Dream's Heavy Rain is headed to Hollywood. 'Deadwood' and 'NYPD Blue' creator David Milch has signed up to adapt the interactive movie into a regular movie.
The movie is being developed by production company Unique Features with Warner Bros., which is reportedly 'fast-tracking' it.
"David Milch's incredible ability to transform intense and complex storylines into gripping, popular drama makes him the perfect partner for us to have on 'Heavy Rain,'" Unique's Bob Shaye said. Milch will start writing once he's finished working on the first season of HBO series 'Luck,' another of his creations
While Heavy Rain had cinematic aspirations, turning it into a movie itself is a little curious considering two of its main selling points were the branching storyline and unprecedented level of control players had over the four main characters. It came out for PlayStation 3 in February 2010, later gaining PlayStation Move Support.

Apple has more cash than the federal government
Maybe President Obama should turn to Steve Jobs for help in the debt-ceiling crisis.
The struggling federal government is down to an operating cash balance of $73.8 billion, according to the latest figures from the U.S. Treasury. That's not much to go on. In fact, Apple has more than that in its bank account.
In its latest earnings report, Apple had $76.2 billion in cash and marketable securities (short-term and long-term). Get Steve Jobs to the Oval Office, quick!
But, as the Financial Post points out, the numbers aren't directly comparable. The government's balance is how much wiggle room it has before hitting that dreaded debt ceiling. And Apple's figure shows its cash and investments that can be converted into cash.
Are we on the verge of a double-dip recession? One analyst says yes in the following video.
Post continues below video:
Apple's $76.2 billion, by the way, was as of June 25. We can only assume the company has stockpiled more by this point.
At any rate, the comparison puts some things into perspective. Apple is on its way to owning the world. And the U.S. government, well, maybe it should get into the tech business.
Yeah Danny, that's what we need, a bigger divide between the rich and poor so that we can model Mexico. The same companies shipping jobs overseas are the same ones taxpayers bailed out. What Chinese laborers make doesn't concern us, what Americans make does.
You have a problem with Americans making a decent wage, but I bet you have no problem with a CEO getting a 30 million dollar bonus for running a company into the ground then getting bailed out. You probably are even brainwashed into thinking trickle down economics is anything but voodoo. You're the same guy that complains because Obama wants to increase the high end tax rate 4%, which is still lower than 3/4ths of the history of the progressive tax system and is what Reagan averaged during his tenure, but the black guy is a socialist. People don't create jobs by getting a tax break on their personal income, they buy speed boats. The marginal rate on corporate taxes is the lowest it's been in half a century, but you probably think it's unfair. And the really sad part is, you VOTE against your own best interest even though you ARE middle class.
Steve jobs is running 1 company with few us employees and a million chinese slaves.
Cant do that at the white house so dont even compare. How many producs does he produce? Most apple big sellers are different versions of the same line. 1 model slightly varied Phone , I touch pad , 1 music player and some pricey computers. All made in China. Dont worry no one will be able to buy any of these products if the tea drinkers have their way.
The last election The voters spoke , they wanted the tea drinkers that is what you do at a party.
Now these same people are crying , wait until they crash the economy and your 401K's and pensions disappear. They told you what they were going to do yet the real economic morons are expecting different results. Go tea baggers Go all the way to hell.
quit whining about shipping jobs overseas
Companies are in business to make money, if its cheaper to outsource then they will.
you cant have it both ways. all the whiners complaining about outsourcing are the same ones who want more govt., more freebies, more illegal aliens. where do you think all the money comes from for your benefits? you want to make $30 an hour, with health care, vacations, sick days, flex time, day care, have a couple of cars and a big fancy house, tvs, computers in every room, Iphone, Ipad
it all costs money, if a company has to pay you that kind of money there is no way that they will be able to compete against most other countries with a lower standard of living. And the Chinese workers are far from slave labor, they are mostly rural peasants used to making $5 a week , so working in a factory making $5 an hour is a blessing.
Face it, Americans are for the most part spoiled , lazy and greedy

PLASTICA: Gift Boutique
Store Profile
- Location: Los Angeles, CA and online
- Website: plasticashop.com
If you still think of plastic as a derogatory description of an item, a quick peek into PLASTICA will change your mind. The store's exuberant and playful mix of cool accessories, home goods, office supplies and kid's toys — sourced both locally and globally — can claim your entire afternoon.
Interestingly enough, not all of the items they carry are plastic. There is a large selection of items — from Marimmeko umbrellas to recycled glasses etched with animals, a cardboard cat house and invitingly touchable wool coasters — that conform to the other definition of plastic as an item that is sculptural or adaptable. PLASTICA is a good source for some of our staple favorites: woven Chilewich rugs, large colorful TubTrugs, even a Rody big enough for adults to play on.

I bought a Rody here - I had not seen them before that and he is now my office pet.

This is definitely one of my most favorite shops in LA. So crazy cute and a really amazing selection of kids stuff....
Love Plastica. Carla, the owner, is great.

Let me preface this by saying that technically, or at least to the best of my knowledge, I am not from a military family; however, pushups make me nostaligic in an odd military brat way. Push-up were my step-grandfather's ("Gramps") prefered form of punishment for the boys in my family, and by "boys" I mean my cousin Jonathan.
My sister and I always saw it coming, would wait, and then maniacally laugh as Gramps would spout off random numbers while my cousin did push-ups to the seemingly random numerical count and then after about seven or eight push-ups, Gramps would announce that that was all equal to ONLY one push-up…only nine or potentially 70 more to go.
"Family Fun From Us to You" memories*: "47, 52, 33, 77, 64, 12, 98…ONE" – Gramps
Elayne and I loved it and still joke about this punishment technique until this day. Although I'm no longer intouch with my cousin – I hear he is muscular and in the military….the role he was born/punished to play.
I personally love push-ups and don't regard them as a punishment. I grew up doing various forms: standard, salutes, clap push-ups, diamonds, and fisted on top of bricks (well – at least until my mother found out and embarrassed my sister and me by having a "motherly word" with our karate Sensei and informing him that we were girls and needed to have pretty hands – I thank her daily when I thumb through my hand modeling portfolio).
On Monday, when a good friend of mine suggested a "negative reinforcement" challenge I eagerly jumped on board. So for the next 10 weeks – whenever we engage in particular forbidden behaviors or utilize specific words – we have to drop and give each other 10…wherever we are.
Check out some awesome push-up variations by a buddy of mine Kodjo who I met back in 2005, definitely follow him on YouTube and Twitter – he has some great workouts posted.
Grew-up doing Number 5: Explosive clap push-ups – and after all these years -it is still my favorite.
Can't wait to try the Prison Cell and Sphinx push-ups.
This negative reinforcement is actually positive in the sense that I think that in 10 weeks my friend will look great (I would compliment how I may potentially look – but that could possibly result in 10 push-ups and I did biceps and triceps this morning at 6:45 – so my arms are killing me) and he will have kicked a negative habit/trait. My goal out of this is to modify some behaviors, spontaneously workout, and hopefully be able to manage a few reps of handstand push-ups by the end of the month.
I strongly encourage you to grab a few friends and make little challenges like this – it really is entertaining.
*Our family home movies always had delightfully cheesy titles such as: "Family Fun From Us To You" and "Watch Leilani Grow" (the latter title was cursed – since I am 4'11 and 3/4). Also, Elayne and I were never punished by Gramps because we were model children…and always made Jonathan do our dirty work HA.

Foxcroft Non-Iron Sleeveless Shirt 3 3
Very nice Crisp! Sharp....timeless! Very happy with the white and lovely yellow. Worth the extra $ June 11, 2013
Is this really Foxcroft?? These shirts are made in Thailand and the sizing is way off-- too large! I followed the sizing guidelines and ordered a 12 because it's described as fitted--- I returned for a size 10 but that will probably will also be too large. The armholes hung down to the middle of my bra! It fit more like a giant sweatshirt than a fiitted shirt, not what I expect from Foxcorft. Fabric is still great and details are nice so this has potentiial if you can get the correct size. I hope this is not a sign of falling quality standards. July 13, 2013
Too Stiff! This shirt looked cute enough, however the material is way too stiff and you can see your bra through the huge arm holes. July 15, 2013

Role-play: An Effective Approach to Learning EFL for Chinese Students from the Perspective of Psychodynamics and Pedagogy
EFL learning in China is very popular; however, the effect of learning seems to be unsatisfactory all the time. This article analyzes three major obstacles of Chinese students in EFL learning and believes the role-play, a common approach to learning EFL, can help eliminate the three obstacles from the perspectives of psychodynamics and pedagogy. It believes the approach can stimulate the enthusiasm and initiative of Chinese students to express their ideas in English in the class if a teacher can fully make the advantage of the inborn instinct of show desire of human being, adopt the approach of role-play, and get rid of the traditional way of English teaching. Key words: obstacles of learning EFL; role-play approach; show desire; proper EFL learning environment and atmosphere; students as the leading role

1. What is a manual backup?
A manual backup is a forced backup of your local system outside of the scheduled backup window. We ask all users to complete a manual backup prior to their first scheduled backup so that we can ensure that both the client-server communication is in place and also that the majority of your data is captured at the first pass. Please note that if you have a large amount of data (over 100GB) then it may take several manual backups to complete this process.
When would you need to do a manual backup?
- First-time backup
- After missing one or more scheduled backups
- After experiencing one or more failed backups
- You have a substantial amount of new data that you wish to back up before the next scheduled backup
- You have changed a substantial amount of data and you want to make sure that the backed-up copy is up-to-date.

On March 2nd will be 6 months since I had experience HELLP Syndrome and the loss of our daughter. I am wondering when I will feel anything? I was coming out of my coma on the day she was to be buried. Everyone else got to say goodbye. Some of the ones that had been there are some of the meanist people in my life today! I feel very cheated and I am alittle upset. I hate the second of each month and I feel alot of stress building now until after that date then it starts at the end of the mth again. Did anyone feel this way? How can I get thru this when I am not allowed to look at the pics taken by the hospital and not suppose to mention that anything happened? I thought maybe someone out there has experienced alittle of these things to possibly help me out.
Thank You,

Everton were unable to make it three league wins in a row as they were beaten by West Brom.
The Toffees had been building a head of steam with wins over Manchester United and Aston Villa but were derailed by a disciplined and hard-working Baggies outfit.
Second half goals from Shane Long and Gareth McAuley were enough to halt the Blues' charge.
After rotating in midweek David Moyes restored the same starting XI which saw his side race into a 3-0 half time lead at Villa.
But there was little of the fluency and panache on display this time around.
Initially Everton had looked keen to pick up where they had left off at Villa Park seven days earlier and after some neat passing Pienaar saw an effort blocked by McAuley.
Nikica Jelavic headed a corner wide and the Croat was then denied a penalty after clashing with the guilty looking Claudio Yacob 17 minutes in.
But then came the pivotal moment of the half as Gibson limped off through injury.
Tony Hibbert came on to replace him with Phil Neville moving to midfield.
But with Everton deprived of their fulcrum in the centre of the pitch, Albion began to assert their dominance.
After Steven Reid had tested Howard from range Long missed the chance of the half when he headed Liam Ridgewell's cross against the bar.
Marouane Fellaini looped his own headed effort on to the roof of the net shortly after the half hour but the home side were undeniably on top.
And on the 45 minute mark James Morrison marched through the defence and saw his shot repelled by the firm outstretched left palm of Tim Howard.
Baines stole in early in the second period only to see a drive blocked away for a corner, with Fellaini turning and dragging his effort wide when the resultant flag-kick was pumped back into the box.
Seeking to inject some dynamism into Everton's play Moyes replaced Naismith with Kevin Mirallas.
The new man immediately set up his compatriot Fellaini but his back post shot was skewed horribly over the bar.
It proved a costly miss as Albion's own sub Peter Odemwingie centred for Long to convert with 25 minutes left.
Mirallas tested Foster with a deflected effort and Moyes threw Victor Anichebe into the mix but instead of forcing an equaliser, it was the home side who doubled their lead.
Youssouf Mulumbu extended Howard from range and McAuley headed in the corner at the near post with eight minutes left.

Scientists have known for years that certain biological components of whey protein (including lactoferrin, beta-lactoglobulin, alpha-lactalbumin, glycomacropeptide, and immunoglobulins) have a beneficial impact on the immune system. Life Extension developed a specially designed whey protein, using proprietary production methodology, that has been shown to support healthy immune function, protect against free radical attack, and help maintain lean muscle mass.134-138
Using a low temperature microfiltration technique, it is possible to produce a high-quality, 98% undenatured whey protein isolate that acts as a powerful immune stimulant and retains all the important sub-fractions, such as lactoferrin, a strong antioxidant with immune-stimulating properties.114-121

Creatine Whey Glutamine Powder
By White Haired Lady
from Clearwater FL
This Creatine Whey Glutamine Powder is very filling. I find after I add a tablespoon of coca powder unsweetened I don't have a craving for sweets after I drink the whey mixture. I mix with an almond 30 calorie milk. I really feel good for the afternoon and have gained energy from this drink. I am a 75 year young lady. I know I can always count on the Whey to give me energy.Thanks for this product and please keep it in stock.

Great product
By Chris
from San Francisco
The sports supplement industry is filled with dubious companies selling products with questionable ingredients. LEF's whey protein isolate is a quality product from a reputable company (Glanbia).I use 2 scoops in my pre-workout and 2 scoops in my post workout nutrition.I'm glad this product is not over-sweetened so I can add my own sweetener or fruit. The little sweetener it does have is natural stevia.Also it's produced from milk from cows not treated with growth hormone.

Attorney General Eric Holder thinks we should "brainwash" kids
Recently Attorney General Eric Holder has injected himself into the gun control negotiations
and I feel it's important that we know his true vision on the topic. Brietbart.com exposed a video of Mr. Holder in 1995 saying that we to "really brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way" and "What we need to do is change the way in which people think about guns, especially young people, and make it something that's not cool, that it's not acceptable, it's not hip to carry a gun anymore, in the way in which we changed our attitudes about cigarettes." Now it's really up to you to decide if this aligns with the second amendment and furthermore if we want people in power that believe "brainwashing" tactics are a good idea.
Check out the video here.

Miami Marlins trade infielder Hanley Ramirez to Los Angeles Dodgers - ESPN Los Angeles
Can he play 1st, 3rd and Short?
'Cuz that would be super!
The minor leaguer the Dodgers traded is Scott McGough. Here is an interesting article on the trade mostly focusing on him:
Scott McGough: Full Scouting Report on Prospect Dealt for Hanley Ramirez | Bleacher Report
Brilliant move, a no brainer. You have to take the gamble on Hanley, even the hitter he's been the last 1.5 years makes him the 3rd most feared hitter in LA's lineup (his current 2012 #s would co-lead LA in HR, #2 in SB). If he rallies back towards his previous form then it's a major haul. Just a few years ago he was in Matt Kemp territory, a legit 30-30 guy that hits over .300. Only a handful of those in the league and none so easily acquired. And with huge needs at SS and 3B in a very thin market for those positions, the Dodgers really couldn't have found a better fit. Even if his D is shaky, you take that tradeoff for a legit middle of the order bat. And they still have assets for Greinke/Johnson/Dempster/Garza to fill the rotation as well as Victorino/Pence if they want another bat.
The ownership's ability to absorb salary got this done, such a nice change from the McCourt era where we certainly would have upgraded the players dealt to Lee/Webster/etc. in order to get the Marlins to cover some salary. And I'd rather roll the dice with Hanley at $15 mill per year than wait to overpay Hamilton $20 mill or more a year as a free agent after the season. And Hanley can play 2 positions that are of greater need than Hamilton.
Well done Dodgers, can't find any fault in this deal.
I will see you...in the next life
Very good deal by the Dodgers. Hanley having a good debut tonight for the Dodgers doesn't hurt either.
Ned needs to add one more bat and one more starting pitcher. Pence and Dempster would be ideal.
Brandon League sucks. I don't get that trade.

Lame-duck Congress may hurt stocks
At least one fund manager is staying out of the market for the rest of 2010 to avoid political risks.
By Robert Holmes, TheStreet
Investors say political gridlock stemming from an energized Republican Party will bode well for the stock market.
Eric Singer, the manager of the Congressional Effect Fund (CEFFX), isn't among them.
With the GOP capturing the House, the two-month lame-duck session will be "incredibly dangerous" for investors, the mutual fund manager says.
"As we've had more political volatility, it has translated to less and less certainty as to how a particular piece of legislation could play out," Singer says. "The public is extremely skeptical."
While Democrat incumbents Barney Frank and Harry Reid managed to hold on to their seats in the House and Senate, respectively, several Republicans, including Arkansas' John Boozman and Wisconsin's Ron Johnson, were able to wrest control from lame-duck Democrats. Newly elected leaders begin the next session Jan. 3, leaving current members less than two months to tackle key unresolved issues.
The 111th U.S. Congress and its Democratic majority made wide-reaching policy decisions, including an overhaul of the U.S. health care system and reform of the financial industry.
However, neither the House nor the Senate has yet to pass a budget. It is also uncertain whether those departing Capitol Hill will move to stop the expiration of the Bush tax cuts or if Congress will take up cap-and-trade legislation, both of which are hotly contested.
The previous lame-duck session occurred in 2004 after Republicans increased their majority in both chambers, and that was a boon for investors. From that year's election on Nov. 2 through the end of 2004, the Dow Jones Industrial Average ($INDU) rose 8% and the S&P 500 ($INX) gained 7%. Singer doesn't expect the same result this time around.
"It may turn out that the lame-duck session is a whimper, but I doubt it," he says. "There is a very interesting chance that after an extraordinary election, the guys who are still in office won't just go away. If I were an investor, I'd be very concerned about my political risk during the lame-duck session. There is a relentless amount of uncertainty that is created by the presence of legislation."
As manager of the Congressional Effect Fund, Singer seeks to capture the historically higher returns on out-of-session days and avoid political risks when the House and Senate are in session. It is the first mutual fund that explicitly attempts to minimize exposure to the potentially negative effect of Congressional legislation.
With a lame-duck session set to begin, Singer says the fund will be in cash, in Treasurys or neutral (for dividends) when Congress is back in session. When Congress is out of session, the fund goes long the broader U.S. market through
S&P 500 ($INX) exchange-traded funds.
The Congressional Effect Fund is small ($8 million in assets) and has a fast turnover rate because of the nature of the investment theme. Currently, it has a net asset value of $10.70 and a minuscule beta compared with the broad market, which is simply a reflection of Singer's staying out of the stock market.
"We've had a very active Congress over the past few years, so they've been in session almost three-quarters of the time," Singer says. "Our performance hasn't suffered, because we've been able to capture a lot of the upside in the market."
The mutual fund, which is up 15% in 2010 and ranks among the top 1% in performance and bottom 1% among risk, benefits from so-called relief rallies and uncertainly over legislation. Still, the fund trails the S&P 500 over three months by a wide margin.
"Whenever Congress is even considering legislation, the stocks of those industries come under pressure. Those sectors are often big enough to affect the entire market," he says. "Talk is not cheap. When they simply talk of reining in the insurers, we all lose wealth."
While some have called the Congressional Effect Fund a novelty, much like the Vice Fund (VICEX), Singer says his returns validate the investing style.
As with everything in the investing world, the Congressional Effect Fund is no sure bet. When Congress enacted tax cuts in 1997, including a cut to the capital-gains tax, the annualized average price increase on the days when Congress was in session was 59.5%, according to data collected by the Congressional Effect Fund. When Congress was out of session that year, there was an annualized average price loss of 4.6%.
Some analysts are arguing that gridlock in Congress would provide equities with some room to run higher. But Singer isn't expecting the same results in the new year.
"In the past, there is a lot of statistical evidence that says gridlock is good," he says. "I question whether gridlock is going to be as good at a time when there is more of a sense of urgency brought on by the financial crisis."

Boots are a good option right now. After those saturate the market, you can try Cardinal Rubys from Dalaran. 220 JP buys a Ruby that you can cut and sell for around 220G, so 1JP = 1G. Twinks and leveling alts buy them all day long. While in Dalaran, you can do the JC daily and make a Nightmare Tear for another 200G or so.

A pet goldfish is off-the-hook and alive after a micro-surgery removes a tumor from his brain.
A family from east Toledo is the latest to have their dog taken from their home. They say someone broke into their house and took their two dogs.
One was been found by police Friday but the other is still missing.
Donald Ulch says he gave his 19-month-old dog to his son's girlfriend to watch over him. But now Kelo is gone after someone broke into the house where the dog was staying.
"I feel like they took one of my kids. I mean they was inseparable," said Ulch.
"It is very upsetting for my children because they don't understand and they are not sure that they feel safe in their home now knowing that someone has come in there," said Janet Pierce.
Pierce says a week ago her female dog was stolen off of her porch and was returned two days later. She paid the teen $75 for the safe return.
Thursday she came home to find that it was broken into and her two other dogs, a puppy and a 19-month-old dog, were stolen. The puppy was found in a house on Federal. According to a police report, the dog was found with a 17-year-old boy.
Pierce says she recognized the boy police say found the dog.
"I feel that the same people who stole my female dog last week maybe the same people who stole our two males this week," said Pierce.
The family is offering a $100 reward for any information.
