North Gwinnett's eight-week reign as the No. 1 team in Class AAAAAA is over.
Colquitt County, which spent a week at the top in August, is back in front in a season in which only one undefeated team remains in the highest classification.
That would be Archer, 9-0 and the winner of its first-ever region champion. Archer, ranked No. 4 this week, has not played a team with a current winning record.
Colquitt County (7-1) is undefeated in Georgia, as its loss came to Hoover, a nationally ranked team that is No. 1 in Alabama's highest class, on Aug. 30. Colquitt defeated Valdosta 17-10 last week.
Collins Hill moved to No. 6 after the 53-25 victory over previously unbeaten North Gwinnett, which fell to No. 3. Collins Hill, North Gwinnett and defending state champion Norcross, ranked No. 5, each have only one Region 7-AAAAAA loss. If they remain tied, a three-way coin flip would determine the No. 1 seed.
(The real loser in the Collins Hill-North Gwinnett game was Mill Creek. The Hawks effectively are eliminated from playoff contention. They previously would've been able to beat Collins Hill in the final game and qualify. Remember that Mill Creek lost only 50-47 to North in a wild finish earlier this month. Meanwhile, another team that is smiling is Norcross, which now has the best chance of getting the No. 1 seed. Norcross has no hard games left and is the most likely to win out.)
Moving into the Top 10 this week are Hughes for Peachtree Ridge in AAAAAA, Woodward Academy for North Oconee in AAA and Mount Pisgah Christian and Darlington for Mount Paran Christian and Emanuel County Institute in A.
Mount Pisgah (8-0) is ranked for the first time by the AJC since joining the GHSA in 2006.
The top game statewide this week matches No. 1 Sandy Creek against No. 2 Carrollton in a Region 5-AAAA.

@ Todd …. I owe you and all Johnson Co fans an apology ….. I doubted them, the teams they had played, and thought ECI would run all over them. Big win that validates them as a Top 5 team in Class A. Congrats!

Camden dropped from 4 to 7? I guess having to come from behind to edge Brunswick does question how good the Cats are. We will find out Friday night when they play Lowndes. I am glad the Packers are back at number 1.
October 27th, 2013

Someone from NG payin AJC. How they loose Sphire and the game in that fashion and only drop two spots???
October 27th, 2013

Like I've been saying tucker is the best team in ga period
October 27th, 2013

Touché. I got you. How is the process at AJC? Does a panel meet or something?
October 27th, 2013
4:14 pm
Lowndes has won four Region 1-AAAAAA and still can't get any respect. On the other hand, Valdosta has lost three games to Region 1 foes, albeit by a total of 7 points, On THE ROAD, and Todd says he still considers the Cats a Top 12 team. Now that's respect!
October 27th, 2013
4:20 pm
@57Cat – Lowndes squeaked by Valdosta, was blown out by Colquitt and has yet to play Camden, so Valdosta is justified to still be ahead of Lowndes. They had all of the easier opponents first unlike Valdosta, who started region play on the road @ Camden.
October 27th, 2013
4:32 pm
Todd your explanation makes no sense in regards to why Camden went from 4 to 7. Lovejoy has not beat a top ten team, nor have they beat a top 20 team or played a top 20 team. They lost to the only ranked team in 6 A they have played, which is Colquitt. Yet they are the number 2 team behind the team that beat them. What is the logic in that?
October 27th, 2013
4:33 pm
Congrats to Hughes for their top 10 ranking. I think this is a first for their school in football and it is well earned.
October 27th, 2013
4:46 pm
Todd I'm from N. Fla, follow Ga football, grew up in South Ga, Ware Co. I think you explanations were on the mark. Region 1-AAAAAA is tough but Camden didn't blow out Coffee, Tift or Brunswick. I follow all the state teams closely and time will tell, but I think your rankings are spot on.
October 27th, 2013
4:50 pm
@jvillebil – Where have you been, guy? We used to see you pretty regularly on the blogs, but this is your first in while. Good to see you again.
October 27th, 2013
5:04 pm
I don't know about this. I get the explanation on Camden but I'm just not too sure they should have fell out of the Top 5. If anything we have grown accustom to Camden County blowing out teams and now they are not however they are winning, finding ways to win close games-something they failed to do in previous years, their defense is hawking for sure and as a team have improved from the NG game which was their first game under a new coach. The bottom of region 1 is a lot better than I think some realize. Archer at four is very suspect as is all of Region 8 so I don't think they should have jumped Camden. Region 7 is another ball of wax for sure especially with NG falling and how Collins Hill is looking. All in all it's all going to shake out but we love chatting it up don't we!
Lovejoy is a solid No.2 and they are coming on very strong with many on the defense back and they re scoring in every facet of the game every week. Very dangerous football team for sure. Don't get too caught up in their schedule, we know they are in a weak region yet they are handling their business and learned from the Colquitt loss.
In 5A I know Kell won but Stephenson should have jumped them but then again do we really trust Stephenson?
Oh it's getting good!
October 27th, 2013
5:11 pm
I think Todd's explanation of the Camden ranking is spot on. It's not rocket science. lol
October 27th, 2013
5:12 pm
Mill Creek not making the playoffs is a shame. They are a very good team. Might be time for Georgia to consider power rankings. It would solve this problem and eliminate the region brackets which have not been ideal for years.
North is in trouble if Sphire can not get healthy and if the defense does not start to figure a few things out.
October 27th, 2013
5:14 pm
They use the power rankings in single A might be time to consider in other classifications.
Todd, can you give use a current preview of this system for AAAAAA?
October 27th, 2013
5:20 pm
I notice that most of the criticism about rankings come from a tunnel view perspective of fans from one particular team (thus a singular point of view). However, when you step back and take a collective and comprehensive analysis, I think they make perfect sense. Especially when you consider that they are just talking points and food for thought and do not carry weight like the BCS polls.
Every team can make valid arguments for higher ranking and lower ranking of other teams, but what is most important Is putting all those ideas into one collective field of data.
October 27th, 2013
6:05 pm
the rankings should be how you think the team will finish the season as of the particular weeks rankings. If a team loses a key player then that should come into play especially if that player will not be back. If you feel a team is not the same without a certain player their ranking should be lower until the replacement player plays as good or better. Just my opinion but that is the way the big boys -colleges do it from what I can tell.
October 27th, 2013
6:17 pm
Todd I think you do a great job with the polls, blog and newsletter. Polls are always gonna be debatable. Keep up the good work!
October 27th, 2013

Looks like Cedartown might be ranked a little high in AAAA-undefeated but all games so far against poor competetion.
October 27th, 2013
6:39 pm
A Packer Fan's Opinion!
If Valdosta qualifies for the playoffs, take my word for it, they will be clicking on all cylinders and will be hard to beat. They were the toughest team we played all year. Good D that swarms the ball and covers receivers very well. Two great running backs and a QB with a good arm. Also one of the best coaches in the state.
Hope they keep playing with energy and go into the playoffs expecting to win every week.
Pack has been 3rd or 4th in Region 1 the last few years and made it to the Semi-Finals a few time.
Hang in there Cats! Keep your head up and make a good run!
October 27th, 2013
7:22 pm
"But if you used the Maxwell Ratings (computer), then all seven Region 1 teams would make it, and four would play home games in the first round. Brunswick would be seeded #31. Only Lovejoy would make it in R2″.
"Teams that would not make it — Rockdale County, Luella, Alcovy, Newnan, South Forsyth, North Forsyth".
"Teams that would make it — Tift, Coffee, Brunswick, Harrison, Cherokee, Mill Creek."
I LIKE THAT SYSTEM A WHOLE LOT MORE. Region One and Gwinnett should not be penalized for having too many good teams. Maybe the new guy at GHSA will take a look at it. And something has got to be done with the "City teams" competing against County teams in the playoffs. regular seaon no problem but come the playoffs you should only compete against teams that follow the same enrollment rules that you do.
October 27th, 2013

what good is the rankings now if you can not win in the playoffs and win state.that is what you are really going for.the final rankings is what really count.
October 27th, 2013

I think the polls are fun to watch. It's more fun to watch the blogs. Let's raise a banner–"we're #1 (week 9)"
October 27th, 2013

Why Stockbridge is not ranked with one lost to the #3 team? That honestly they could have beaten.
October 27th, 2013
8:19 pm
Sportsnut– Congrats to Lovejoy on your new pre-season #2 ranking!
Only 20 more days till the start of the Lovejoy football season!
October 27th, 2013

Bottom line is that if you finish #4 in your region chances of you winning the state are slim to none, just be thankful you make the playoffs. If you go back and look at all the teams sitting in the #4 slot or lower in their state their regions, you have Grayson at number 4 currently and Walton at number 5 in their regions. Two years ago they played for the state championship. Region 1-AAAAAA throws everything into a debate, because the only school that could possibly eventually go to AAAAAA in South Ga is Ware County. In the past 10 years they have played both Lowndes and Valdosta in their schedule beating Lowndes only once and Valdosta twice but quit playing them both 2 years ago because all it did was get their players beat up before region and add a couple of losses on the record. Bottom line is that if Coffee, Tift and Brunswick want to make it to the big dance they're going to have to step up their program and bump somebody.
October 27th, 2013
8:25 pm
There is bias in any poll . if you are not good enough to be in the top four in your region, then I just don't think you have a lot to complain about. No doubt some teams will not get into the playoffs that are better then some that will. Any other method will always be subjective. With the current system you know you have to be in the top four in your region.

@57Cat, I got transfered to the Orlando area and working a ton of hours. Just got back to the Jacksonville area. I make it on line once in a while on the Friday night chat. I try to catch the TV game, find the online radio for Valdosta, Colquitt or one of the other 1-AAAAA good games and then have a friend that gives me live updates on Ware and Pierce. I go a couple of Ware games and big games in South Ga if I make it in time. Plan on being at the Camden/Colquitt game.
October 27th, 2013
8:53 pm
@ ShsTiger – I'm not sure if you watched the same Griffin/Stockbridge game that everyone else saw. We saw the one where your team was held under 100 total yards, while Griffin rolled up almost 500 while winning going away, where kickoff returns (one a TD and another long return that set up the other TD) were the only real offense that Stockbridge could generate, where the Stockbridge defense was consistently one step behind the Griffin offense all night long.
You're right (in a way, I guess). Stockbridge COULD have beaten Griffin. Anything COULD have happened. But the chances of Stockbridge winning that game were slim to none after the first quarter.
October 27th, 2013
8:58 pm
Lots of crying today. Why?
October 27th, 2013
8:59 pm
BTW, I do think that Stockbridge should be ranked. They're as good as Burke Co. or Wayne Co., and possibly Marist, too.
October 27th, 2013

@ Sportsnut – Congrats on the #2 ranking. Good to see Lovejoy that high in the poll. Good luck in the playoffs.

October 27th, 2013

Norcross will win it all. Smoked Colquitt in their scrimmage (yes I know it was a scrimmage but you play to win, this is not the NFL). Propst was calling timeouts at the end of the third trying to score before the JV fourth quarter. That is all.
October 27th, 2013
10:22 pm
@ Old Bear == Thanks. The kids are just playing football. To think, Lovejoy at the end of Clayton and Griffin at the beginning of Spalding, doing their thing. I am hoping both can have a nice long run and we get a chance to talk in the Dome. You know Mundy's Mill has taken 1st in their region. Same as last year. 0-4 out the blocks and come on at the end. They just need to take the next step.
October 28th, 2013
1:43 am
Thank you for preparing the rankings, Mr. Holcomb. This week in particular was very difficult.
Colquitt is the clear Number 1 so that was easy.
Everything else is very hard to figure. If we look no further than Region 7, one could make an argument for any of those 3 teams as the division leaader. North seems to be waning, Norcross is waxing, and Collins Hill has put together a consistent strong season with the exception of 1 game against Norcross. Pehpas, the most accurate method to rank those 3 teams would be to ask the Lovejoy coach which team he most wants to play in the quarterfinals.
I think we should all be glad there is a decent playoff system in Georgia so that the teams can resolve it on the field rather than basing the worth of a season on coaches, sportswriters, or computers.
It might make some sense to base entry to the playoffs upon computer rankings. That would avoid leaving out strong teams like Mill Creek, Cofee, or Tift. But even if the current system is flawed, we can safely assume that the eventual best team in the state was among the top 4 teams in their own region. The current system will yield a deserving undisputed champion.
I really do think Mr. Holcomb had an impossible task this week. Personally, I would rate North lower and Camden and Norcross higher. But those are nuances that can really only be proven on the field. The Cobb teams could easily be higher, but we will not know until the playoffs. Nobody has mentioned it, but I think Mr. Holcomb did a good job by ranking Langston Hughes this week. Hughes is still a bit of an unknown, but they have played strong games all season, and their close loss to Creekside establishes them as a respectable team. They could very well go deep in the playoffs – and it would look foolish if they were never ranked.
I also wonder whether there may be a Region 6 team that will do well in the playoffs, especially considering they may be facing relatively weak Region 8 teams in the first round. We just do not know at this point.
The playoffs this year will be very exciting, and probably full of surprises. I think this year's playoffs will be Georgia High School Football at its best.
October 28th, 2013
1:58 am
@ Sportsnut – If we both make it that far we'll definitely have to try and meet up. Griffin has the talent to do some damage, but they've had it before and got tripped up (sometimes stomped) in the playoffs.
And yes, it's good to see a revival of quality football down here on the south side. I saw where Mundy's Mill has come on strong, too. I'd also like to see Lamar Co. make it in AA. They're our neighbor down here, and the only really good small school in our area. They have the coaching and the seniors to make some noise this year.
Good luck to you guys. I'd love it if we had a south Atlanta school represent in the Dome in every classification possible.
October 28th, 2013
2:22 am
@ Suwanee 0wns – I don't have any problems with the rankings. In 6A, it's a big jumble of teams after Colquitt. As Todd commented earlier (more or less), any of the next 6 or so schools could be pulled from a hat and listed accordingly. And I believe that classification is wide open as far as who could win it.
My main problem is with how Region 4 in Class 4A determines their 4 state playoff entries. They take the top 4 teams from each sub-region and have them play each other in crossover play-in games, with the #1 seed from sub-region facing the #4 seed from the other, #2 vs #3, and so on. An undefeated team faces the very real prospect (since they'll likely be meeting for the second time in the season) of stubbing their collective toe against a sub-.500 team before they even get a chance to compete in the state playoffs. I've never seen the like.
It would make more sense to add another regular season game and take the top 2 seeds from each sub-region to the state playoffs. If the argument is that the sub-regions are too small to allow for that, then the region might want to count crossover games opponents from the sub-region count as region games, much like the SEC does in college football. I just don't see the wisdom of a region putting their best teams at risk of sitting at home on the basis of one potentially poorly played game. Maybe someone can tell me why the current set-up is a good one.
October 28th, 2013
2:36 am
I butchered that second sentence in the last paragraph. It should read, " If the argument is that the sub-regions are too small to allow for that, then the region might want to count crossover games AGAINST opponents from the OTHER sub-region count as region games, much like the SEC does in college football."
I hope that clears it up a little.

Lowndes isn't looking for respect. Respect won't even buy you a cup of coffee. Wins will.

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - Republican gubernatorial candidate Phil Bryant says he has more than $1.7 million in the bank two months out from the Aug. 2 GOP primary.
Friday was the deadline for candidates to file a campaign finance report for the period of May 1-31, 2011. Candidates had until 5 p.m. CDT to file the reports with the secretary of state.
In a release, Bryant, the sitting lieutenant governor, says he raised $238,761 in May and has raised more than $2.6 million since Jan. 1.
Republican Gov. Haley Barbour is limited to two terms and could not run again this year.

Greetings everyone,
I have a strange scenario to model and I was hoping I could get some advice: This used to be a whole building built on 1,920 so it is a balloon framing. The homeowner' s apartment is on the second floor, but the front door on the first floor has a little area with a little "receiving" table and that area is heated with a radiator. The basement ceiling has no insulation at all and because of the framing style, it brings a great deal of air into the 2 floor (proved by the blower door)
The entire house is two floors plus attic, but I am modeling a little piece of the first floor, second floor, attic and basement... Any suggestions on how to do this?
Your comments are greatly appreciated,
Views: 96
Paul, Good Evening, John here, did you ever get an answer from anyone to this question? I am fairly new to TREAT but I am willing to discuss this if it still matters to you?

I used to LOVE Moro...but may have to boycott it for a period of time. I'm probably being generous with 3 stars. Get your act together!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food and ServiceKennyDined on 9/19/2014Beyond compare! Your offers were varied and the presentation extraordinary. A must vist to all.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- SurprisedOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 9/13/2014My wife and I have been to Moro quite a few times, for New Years with many friends, business dinners with clients, etc, and we've never walked away with a fairly poor food experience, at least with two courses, both main and dessert courses. We both ordered the special scallops which came out cold, especially rare and without a sear. We sent them back without grief by an accommodating server, and then waited 15 mins for replacements, which finally returned and while not cold, they were sear-less. Dessert was very poorly done. I ordered the snores bread pudding with marshmallow gelato. The pudding was more like a brick with a burnt bottom. My wife had the apple dish, which was very cold and the blueberry ice cream didn't fit. Disappointing!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful restaurant week menuMarionDined on 9/11/2014We ordered from the restaurant week menu for $35.00. Everything was excellent; from the smoked salmon, and brussel sprouts with bacon appetizers, to the lamb with grits and the pork main courses, to the chocolate tart finale.Special Features:
- Saturday nightGDudeVIPDined on 9/6/2014After returning from vacation, we sought a place that would help us get back into reality slowly. Moro provides a relaxing atmosphere combining great food preparation and presentation accompanied by beverages that help you unwind. Once again, a terrific dinner that helped bring us back home.Special Features:

- INSULTDined on 8/29/2014As always good food and a very pleasant dinner and evening. Great ambiance for a neighborhood gem and reasonably priced. Moro is one of our favorites! We like the option of small plates as well as dinner entrée large plates.Special Features:
- DinnerTrynewthingsDined on 8/29/2014Rib eye special very good but heavy, needed green veg or something light. Duck very good. Less risotto this time. Escargot was fantastic with spice tomato sauce. Great portion size too.Special Features:
- Quaint dining spotDaveDined on 8/27/2014Changed menu where there are less main entrees and more small plate dishes. Not a lot of good selection on main entrees that appealed to me or my guests. Guests did like the variety of small plates. The duck salad was a hit.Special Features:
- disappointedRick1VIPDined on 8/26/2014We were exited to visit Moro. We got there and loved the menu, so many interesting dishes. We saw: 4, 5 or 6 choice tasting menu. When a restaurant offers a tasting menu it's to show off their talent and produce. What we got was a boring 5 course testing menu, paired with a week old wines and flat as water Moscato d'Asti; "tuna salad", Grilled over cooked swordfish, short ribs with risotto and fried parsnips, t - bone lamb chop (not rack of lamb) with oxidized and salt less pesto w/baby carrots, and dessert. Where was the exciting local seasonal (summer ) produce? And then the waiter was in a rush to be anywhere but at our table. He practically was throwing the silverware at our table for us to put it in its place. Disappointing.
- One of our favorites in Wilmingtonmyboat53Dined on 8/23/2014We visit Moro several times a year and are never disappointed in the quality or creativity of the food. This visit was no exception. For some reason, the service this time was a little slow and "forgetful". Also, no matter what restaurant we visit we are very careful to tell the staff of my wife's pine nut and chestnut allergies, which can be life threatening. Interestingly, we have had two instances at Moro, including this visit, where she has been served pine nuts even right after our warning the staff. This should not be allowed to happen. Other than that, however, we enjoyed our visit as usual.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/19/2014I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves a good meal. They also have small plates for the smaller appetite.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Overpriced and overratedCharlieVIPDined on 8/16/2014Not much for the price. Trying to be something they did not achieve. Tastes are not complimentary. It has been sometime since our last visit and or dinner confirmed the reason.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/16/2014Our experience was excellent for a special occasion dinner this past Saturday. Our server "Joe" was excellent, friendly and good humored! The food presentation and taste was fabulous.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Moro is the best!LorrieCDined on 8/14/2014I have been here a number of times and have never been disappointed by a meal here. The menu is diverse and the food excites. Scallops were perfectly cooked and sweet, with a delicious chorizo risotto as an accompaniment. Escargot were excellent and a flat bread with cherries and Parmesan was a delicious small plate.Special Features:
- Nice Dinner but can be betterTracyDined on 8/13/2014Been there many times, we like the place but sometime more than the other. Both food and service are pretty good but was disappointing of the new limited menu during our last few visits. They used to have more small dishes which was great for sharing and tasting and it was what makes the place attractive so now, its another restaurant, nothing special about it.Special Features:
- Love Moro!KateharDined on 8/12/2014We've been doing special occasions at Moro for a while, and we are never disappointed. The prices are on the higher side but the quality warrants them.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great Specials!Foodie1Dined on 8/8/2014Went with two friends. We all ordered something different and the food was terrific! I had the shrimp and, grits. Yum, shrimp not overcooked. Veal Bolanese was also, very good. Everyone thought the food they ordered was great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Tasting Menu ExperienceSilentGrace23Dined on 8/8/2014My group of four did the five-course tasting menu. It was a wonderful experience. All of the courses were delicious, varied, and perfectly timed. It was the first time I have done a tasting menu, and I was very very pleased. We started with a spicy salmon tartare, then had a roasted tomato with ricotta, followed by duck breast with roasted potatoes, and for our main course, pork with pureed turnip and brussels sprouts. But it was after the main course that Moro really impressed me. They served us pear sorbet as a delicious intermezzo followed by a paired dessert - peach shortcake and chocolate mousse pie. Absolutely delicious.Special Features:
- Love this restaurantgeniceEDined on 8/8/2014Another great night at Moro Restaurant. It never disappoints. I took a friend there for an early birthday present and she said that she is afraid to order scallops out unless by the sea but with Moro, there is never any doubt about the quality of food. As reviewed before, only suggestion would be to offer more dessert choices like the ones offered for your catering menu. I love my desserts and usually skip that part of the meal; unfortunately.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Overlooked GemVisit2dineDined on 8/6/2014We need to dine here more often. Mid-week in early August so it was quiet. Specials were interesting and the menu was diverse. Not inexpensive but a great dinner. Need to rethink the entrance which involves tight, twisting and difficult stairs if your are the slightest bit infirm or after two glasses of something. Otherwise great experience.Special Features:

- CladdaghOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/2/2014Went to Moro sat evening expecting a n exceptional dinner as we have had in prior diniing occasions. Very disappointed ! Appetizers took An extended time to receive and then the waiter's ground pepper shaker not working. Took an additional 10 minutes to receive ground pepper for soup and appetizers. I ordered the special of the day which was peppercorn encrusted pork tenderloin. Presentation was beautiful but could not eat the meat due to the overbearing peppercorn covering even after removing the peppercorns. By then I had my fill of peppercorn chunks in the salad and on the plate. Waiter did not ask if we enjoyed our diners at all.
- Staying PowerOpenTable Diner Since 2004VIPDined on 8/1/2014We have been regulars at Moro for more than 15 years. During that period it has changed, evolved, but always remained true to the best ingredients, careful preparation and innovation - within reason. The restaurant business is a tough mistress. Over 85% fail, so longevity says a great deal. Sometimes longevity can be the result of habit as the clientele and restaurant grow old together. This has not happened at Moro where the majority of diners are early in their restaurant appreciation careers. The innovation attracts new diners while the quality and consistency keeps them coming. Edwardo and his staff do a great job, too, so it's not just good food. It is a nice experience. Go! You will enjoy the evening.Special Features:
- Tasting MenukarinandericDined on 8/1/2014We had the 6-course tasting menu with the wine pairings. All 6 were creative and well presented. Taste is subjective, but we found 2 to be very good and 2 to be exceptional. The wines were fairly average, but paired well with the courses. Will definitely return.Special Features:
- Very GoodplantDined on 7/26/2014Everything was good and they recognized my husband's birthday!!

- AngelVIPDined on 7/24/2014Excellent as always. Special attention to detail and attentive service, delicious dishes. One suggestion: wedge salad could be larger. Seemed skimpy. What I had was delicious but for the price, should have been larger.Special Features:
- Delicious tasting menucuffthisVIPDined on 7/22/2014A dear friend of mine dined at Moro on a Tuesday night and were very thrilled with our food and the service. We opted for the 4 course tasting menu and were thrilled with everything. Each course was unique and filled with vibrant flavors. This is a wonderful restaurant that deserves repeated follow ups to taste all the great offerings that come out of its kitchen.Special Features:

Wow. That's the largest "turnout" for one of our polls yet! After a long hiatus, inspired by the Saint celebration over at Permission To Kill, the Spy-Fi Polls returned a week ago with the question: "Which actor portrayed the best Simon Templar (The Saint) on film or TV?"
With 18 out of an astounding 33 votes cast, the clear favorite was Sir Roger Moore, who portrayed the gentleman rogue in the eponymous ITC television series from 1962 to 1969. For millions of people who'd never even read a Leslie Charteris novel, the charming, handsome and athletic actor was and will always be Simon Templar.
Coming in second, with a respectable 7 votes was droll George Sanders, who portrayed the character in five Saint features for RKO between 1939 1nd 1940.
Ian Ogilvy, who starred in the 24-episode TV series The Return of the Saint in 1978-79, garnered four votes for third place, while 80's television Saint Simon Dutton and Val Kilmer, star of the 1997 feature film, manged two votes apiece.
Neither Louis Hayward nor Hugh Sinclair, both of whom portrayed the hero in 30s movies, managed a single vote, and Andrew Clarke, of 1987's The Saint in Manhattan TV pilot, was also snubbed in the voting.
Ogilvy was actually the first Simon Templar I ever saw, back when CBS was running Return late nights in the 70s. But Moore is definitely the man I think of as being the definitive Saint. I'm a big fan of George Sanders' films, too, and really wish Warners would put them out in a boxed set.
As always, feel free to explain (or defend - Kilmer? Really?) your choices in the comments, and if anyone has suggestions for other Spy-Fi polls, please send 'em along!

Spy-Fi Poll 008: Results
Posted by Christopher Mills at 11:24 PM

The only surprise I think is that Louis Hayward didn't garner any support as many commentators speak highly of his debut in "The Saint in New York".
Andrew Clarke was always going to struggle because--apart from his pilot actually being well, crap--his stint as the Saint has only been shown once and that was in the US. It's never been repeated, never shown anywhere else and never released on DVD.
I think there's also an element of timing about this. I grew up watching Ian Ogilvy as the Saint so for me he will always be the best Saint. Because I'm a child of the 70s Roger will always be that Bond fellow...

Kristen's Entertaining Space
Small Cool Contest
Like this entry? Favorite it below!
- Name:
- Kristen
- Location:
- New York, NY
- Square Feet:
- 545
- Division:
- Tiny
- What I Love About My Small Home:
- The open plan space of the living room/kitchen/dining room is what we love most. We like hosting dinner parties for about 4-8 friends – and with the kitchen just a few feet away, it allows my partner Mike to cook and entertain at the same time. I scooped up a mid-century modern teak table with an expandable leaf that allows us to get more than half a dozen folks over for a sit-down.
- Biggest Challenge of Living in a Small Space
- Did I say we like to cook and entertain? Well that's a tall order when you have a pullman kitchen. I gave up a regular height fridge for an under-the-counter one to gain some counter space. A skinny, tall stainless steel kitchen worktable also maximized the floor space and provided some much needed prep area. Luckily, Mike is extra-ordinarily handy in such tight cooking quarters, but we'd definitely prefer more kitchen space.
Storage space is always a huge issue (no pun intended). While the floor plan makes it seem like there's a lot of closets, the closets are small, so I turned one end of the bedroom into a wall to wall closet about three feet by ten feet, using Elfa shelving and linen curtains. It really worked wonders keeping everything organized.
- If I am the Grand Prize winner of Small Cool, the item(s) or project(s) from my home design wishlist that I'd like to spend my winnings on are:
- Does taking a trip to an exotic locale to buy furniture count? We went to Nicaragua last year and aside from the surf and warm weather, there's a lot of fine wooden furniture available. We'd definitely love to go again and find an update for our coffee table.

Love that shower curtain.
I love your apartment! This is one of the few apartments in this contest that I look at and think, "I would definitely live there!" It's just beautifully arranged.
So do I!
That door is my favorite part. So cool!
Love this SO much.
cool door!
I too love that Rothko print. Nice apartment.
I love the silver door! Usually doors are not the greatest...
The floors! Those gorgeous parquet floors!
Thanks everyone for your generous comments!
- Mary: I picked up the Toile showercurtain at Target
- Bejeweled: The "White Center" Rothko print came from the Moma Store (framed!)
- Tim, Enbezella and Chic Geek: That was a DIY project! Several applications of Peel Away paint remover and some sanding down. I didn't seal it, so it has that old, matte industrial feel to it.
- JohnCB: Glad you like the floors, I debated taking out the original floors in favor of long planks, but every contractor said to keep in the original - it would be hard to replace oak like that today.
Omg! Kristin my husband and I *just* stripped our own entry door and were planning to leave the metal! I think we'll seal it against rust but I love seeing yours.
I MUST know where you found the nickel floor lamp next to your bed. I desperately need a new floor lamp for my living room and can't seem to find one with up-lighting that doesn't look like it belongs in a dorm room.
Love your place. :)
Hi Sprayfaint - if you want to retain that just-sanded, shinier finish, then yes, it's better to seal it in. Overtime, while our door didn't rust (the darker parts are left-over paint that elbow grease just couldn't remove), it definitely lost the original sheen. But it still has an overall cool vibe. Good luck and thanks for your comment!
Hi DDD - Thanks! and you have a good eye! It is a nickel lamp, but I got it more than 7 years ago at Pottery Barn. I just checked and I couldn't find the exact model, but they still have a bunch of lovely ones that definitely look more sophisticated than dorm room design. Sorry I couldn't have been of more help :(
No worries, thank you! :)

Changing Perspectives
By transforming your office space, just a little, you can change your attitude for the better
In many ways, the attitude you have toward your job can be influenced by your immediate surroundings. After all, think about the many hours you spend each week in the office. Now look around and contemplate for a moment, what if the environment here in my workspace could be changed, even slightly...might that also change my attitude in a positive way?
The answer, according to experts who study such things, is yes. Transformations in your office space, no matter how small, can truly make a difference in your state of mind. And it doesn't matter whether you work in a corner office or a cubicle.
Let's explore some possibilities:
Almost every office is flooded with bright, cold and impersonal fluorescent lighting. Although this provides great visibility, it likely will do nothing to improve your mood. If your boss and building supervisors allow, try keeping a small, softly lit lamp on your desk. You might be surprised how this subtle change in lighting around your immediate work area can enhance things.
Clear floor space.
Are their boxes stacked in a corner of your cubicle? Or old magazines piled against the wall? Are there stray chairs taking up space, chairs that nobody uses? Clear it all away. By opening up more floor space, even if it's just a few square feet, you'll get the feeling that there's more room to move around, alleviating the "cramped-in" feeling that comes with many cubicles.
Once again, if there's no objection from your boss, try placing posters on the walls depicting scenes of interest to you...scenes that create a sense of relaxation for you. These might be secluded beaches, breathtaking natural vistas, or perhaps a subject that is close to your heart such as flowers, horses or children.
Install a unique screensaver.
There are thousands available, and many can be downloaded for free. Choose several that appeal to you and rotate them to constantly change the image portrayed on your computer screen.
Re-arrange the furniture.
Granted, if you work in a cubicle, this can be difficult. But if you're fortunate enough to work in an actual office, take a cue from the ancient Asian art of Feng Shui, which among other things, promotes the positioning of furniture in a room as a way of creating a feeling of improved organization along with calmness and tranquility.

Project Name & Location: Inn on Biltmore Estate - Asheville, North Carolina
Category: 1A – General Design Over $500,000
Landscape Project Cost: $3,000,000
Quick Project Summary | Site design for a new Inn on the grounds of the Biltmore Estate that embraces
and integrate Olmsted's principles of design for beauty, self-sufficiency and sustainability. The designers
sited the inn using computerized visual modeling and assessments along with careful site analysis
intended to emulate the way the grand residence was situated on the land and to minimize the visual
impact. The landscape architect's challenge was to site and design a facility that protected the historic
Olmsted design and was compatible with the existing design idiom without mimicking the original
design. The Biltmore Estate currently receives approximately 1,000,000 visitors per year all of which
stay off site – a lost revenue opportunity for the property owners and a missed experience for the
visitors who would like to experience the property for more than a brief visit.
Project Context and History | In 1890, George Vanderbilt purchased 120,000 acres to build a lodge in
the Blue Ridge Mountains, land that had been denided of its forests by settlers. Vanderbilt hired
Frederick Law Olmsted, the nation's premier landscape architect, to develop the estate and manage the
forests, and architect Richard Morris Hunt to design a 250-room house modeled after three 16th-century
French Renaissance chateaux. Eventually, the family would deed 90,000 acres of the site to the federal
government to create nearby Pisgah National Forest.
Forty years later, Biltmore House opened to the public in the midst of the Depression. The Asheville
economy had been hard hit and local officials asked the family to invite visitors in order to encourage
tourism to the area. In the years since, studies have estimated Biltmore's economic value to the region
at hundreds of millions of dollars.
Project Purpose | The Biltmore Estate has been managed in recent decades by a for-profit cooperative
of heirs with overall objectives of sustainability and preservation. The extensive estate lands were
divided among family members in the 1970s, leaving 8,000 acres containing Biltmore House and the
designed landscape, farms and forests around it. As development increased nearby, low-end
accommodations grew up around the estate, a stark contrast to Biltmore's beauty and refinement. At
that time, Biltmore counted about 350,000 visitors annually. The family worked to create amenities and
programs to encourage longer visits, and visitation increased dramatically. In 1996, after a 10-year
debate, they decided to build an inn that would evoke the original experience of staying at Biltmore
House, giving visitors a seamless experience of this national historic landmark and augmenting the
estate's revenues.
Role of Landscape Architect | The landscape architect collaborated with Biltmore Estate management
to lead a team of engineers, architects and a landscape historian to create a site design that would also
embrace and integrate Olmsted's principles of design for beauty, self-sufficiency and sustainability. The
designers helped site the inn, using extensive computerized visual assessments and careful site analysis
so that it would emulate the way the grand residence is situated on the land. Both sit on the crests of a
hill and both area approached through highly controlled landscapes that are by turns pastoral and
forested and that conceal the building until the last turn. But the siting of the inn was crucial for
another reason: It was located so that it has controlled views of Biltmore House with limited views back
to the inn and careful integration into the surrounding landscape. The inn was also designed to
reference Biltmore House in its forms, rooflines, materials and detailing.
The site chosen for the inn was a former dairy complex and pasture that set upslope from the Biltmore
Estate Winery. The design transformed it using the inspiration of the great house with formal terraces
close to the building and naturalistic landscapes farther away, including the Deer Park. Inspired by the
pastoral and picturesque styles of Olmsted's work at Biltmore, the designers positioned carefully
calculated scenery over pasture and woodland and views to the vast forested hills beyond. The inn's
landscape of 25 acres includes an entry drive, several informal gardens, swimming pool gardens and
terrace, a new 5-acre demonstration vineyard, converted meadows with native grasses and heavily
planted, terraced guest and employee parking. The demonstration vineyard, which grows wine
varietals, is connected by a pathway to the estate's winery.
Special Factors | The challenge posed to the LA was to site the building in such a way that gave it
prominence in the landscape, while also being subordinate to and not detracting from the views from
the original house - which is the primary visitor draw to the property. Olmsted often used geometric
forms when creating water features. The pool is a simple ellipse with a rim flow evocative of the circular
reflecting pool on the Great Lawn of the estate. The curving stone wall of the Grand Terrace follows the
contour of the hill and recalls Olmsted's other works. The planting list for the Inn was derived from
Olmsted's original planting list used for the approach drive to the Estate. A particular challenge was to
site parking in a way that was invisible from the approach road and from the hotel. Parking bays were
shaped to the contours and built as tiers into the topography. Simulations insured that parking was not
seen from lodge rooms.
Significance | The project is significant because it resides within one of our national landmarks designed
by the father of our profession in the United States. The care taken to site the building, along with the
care taken to understand and interpret Olmsted's legacy on the property created a new project that fits
naturally within the character and sense of place of the original gardens and adds to the visitor
experience and legacy of the grounds of this historic estate.
Since its opening, Inn on Biltmore Estate has earned numerous accolades, including a four-diamond
rating by AAA as well as placement on Conde Nast Traveler's Gold List. The carefully designed setting of
approach and the inn's landscape are pivotal elements in this praise. The inn has also been featured in
articles on Travel + Leisure and National Geographic and on NBC's Today Show. Annually, nearly a
million people now visit Biltmore estate, which is self-sustaining with no subsidies from government or
national historic organizations. In keeping with the original principles of self-sufficiency and
sustainability, the state grows much of its own vegetables, grapes, lamb, beef and fish, and bottles its
own wine.
As a follow-up to its work on siting the inn and designing its landscape, the landscape architects created
a 20-year master plan for Biltmore Estate which aims to reinvigorate the forest preserve and the
agricultural and livestock operations, and worked with the family to plan new programming and
amenities such as river-rafting tours.

Want to avoid those massive city potholes? Well, there's an app for that.
Chicago native, Elliott Ramos, created an app that shows where each pothole in the city is located. Ramos says he decided to make the app because he got sick of hearing his friends complain about them.
It features an animated map of pothole reports from November until now.
"What did was take the pothole data set, which is what every news organization has done so far, and I took out the duplicate files, which the city was nice enough to put that in there, and I just sorted it out by date and put it on a map," Ramos told FOX 32 in an interview.
Ramos says the app isn't just to show people where the potholes are but to show how the number of reports can change over time.

The food is good, but be prepared to wait for that as well. Often times the line is incredibly long. For no known reason, the food stations are shut down during peak hours. Then you have to go find another station with an incredibly long line. If you are a foody, you will be disappointed. The food is good, not great. What they call Cherries Jubilee is just warmed cherry pie filling.
Most importantly, there are way too many people on this ship. Wherever you go, there are hundreds of people. Even at 11 at night, there is nowhere to go where you can be alone. There are always lots of people around and lots of teens.
Overall, if you have never been on a cruise, this one is cheap and not too bad. I will not go on this one again. I would rather save up and pay for a little more service and a little more privacy.

Satin Off-the-Shoulder A-Line with Side-Drape Style 9BR1035 35 36
Perfect! I got this dress in ivory for my august wedding. It was perfect, and so flattering! I am a size 24, and like most girls, I wanted to look like a princess on my wedding day. This dress was wonderful!!! Everyone at my wedding raved about it being so classy and elegant! I love the simpleness of it, not frilly lace or fussy beadwork. It was perfect for my outdoor wedding! I ordered online after visiting a DB store, so I knew just what size to order. The dress arrived in 3 days and it fit like a glove. No alterations needed! My husband loved the dress, and my mom started crying when she saw me in it. I would definately reccomend this dress to anyone, it's flattering on all body types! October 10, 2009
Fantastic look at a fraction of the price! I was skeptical about ordering this dress online, but since it's pretty easy to mail back if you don't like it I decided to try it. I LOVE it. It came 6 days after I ordered it. It's brand-new, unlike the store's dresses, and it's a great fit (I'm a size 22). I added a pic, but it doesn't do it justice... Try it! August 31, 2009
Beautiful! Elegant, simple and gorgeous! I loved this gown, and as a gal with a larger bust, this dress was perfect; I felt beautiful and comfortable throughout our day! November 13, 2008
Affordable glamor! Just like every bride on earth, I want to look really beautiful on my wedding day without breaking the bank. As soon as I got engaged I started shopping around for dresses, and I tried on some very exquisite--and very expensive--dresses. Besides not having the money to spend, I just couldn't justify spending that much on a dress I would only wear once! I wanted glamor, but I wanted to be able to afford it, too. I got both with this dress! This gown is far and away the BEST dress I have put on so far--better even than the gowns at the expensive boutiques. I received the dress two days after I ordered it, and when I tried it on I couldn't believe how perfect it was. My mom and I just cried because we knew this was THE dress. It's elegant, comfortable, and simple--in short, it's perfect! I would highly recommend it to anyone, and David's Bridal customer service made the whole transaction so easy. If you're curvy and want something to show off your assets, then this is the gown for you! I can't wait to wear it on my wedding day. November 9, 2008

Gaby Moreno
Her voice is a flash to the heart. With her three albums, Still the Unknown (2008) , Illustrated Songs (2011), Postales (2012) and the EP, A Good Old Christmas (2010), we can give account of that, for the stunning, sweet and firm voice she possesses, with blues as a reference and soul-folk as a detail. Besides, Gaby Moreno slowly cooks the songs written by her, providing them with an endearing charm based on sober instrumentation, elegant harmonies and an unexpected timbre, so that in every performance she lights, without difficulty, a beautiful fire in the heart of the listener.

Hi, I'm Cristin Priest and I am thrilled to be a new contributor on Wayfair's new, My Way Home blog! Today I wanted to share a little about me and Simplified Bee®.
I've always loved decorating, and keeping things orderly comes natural to me. Growing up I spent hours designing rooms for my dollhouse and drawing floor plans of dream homes. As a young adult, I put my organizational skills to work planning corporate events and large-scale trade shows. It wasn't until after a successful career in event planning, having two children, and a short stint as a stay-at-home mom, that I decided to go back to school and study interior design.
As a busy mother, I saw a need for "functional" design and knew that homes could be orderly without sacrificing beauty. In January of 2009, I launched Simplified Bee® to share my combined expertise of home organization and decorating with others. I believe surrounding yourself in beautiful, organized spaces reduces stress, makes you happier, and inspires healthier living. I take great pride on being a style-savvy, yet practical designer.
In my own home, I strive for spaces that are approachable, a bit eclectic, and artfully blend old and new. I don't particularly like interior designs that are matchy-matchy and look like a page out of a furniture catalog.
When asked what's the quickest way to spruce up your home, my answer is simple: de-clutter and purge often. Clutter is visually exhausting. Keep and display only what you love. If you don't use it, sell or donate it. I have a rule in my house that if a new toy, pair of shoes, or piece of clothing enters the house, an unused similar item is donated, recycled, or trashed depending on condition.
Of course, I have my list of favorite products that are great for organizing spaces. Trays are on the top of the list and help corral items stylishly. In my own home you will find several. In the image above, a tray beautifully organizes my bar cart.
To kick off a new year and for the launch of the Wayfair blog, I have written a couple fun posts: Achieving Resolutions and Declutter for a Fresh Start. Check them out when you have a chance! In the upcoming months I will be writing about more about ways to organize your home beautifully. If there are certain topics you'd like me to cover, please let me know!
Happy organizing,

The Denver Nuggets lost Carmelo Anthony to New York in 2011. That didn't matter.
The 2011-12 Denver Nuggets were everything a George Karl team should be.
With no real superstar, the Nuggets relied on depth and chemistry to outperform expectations and fight their way to a sixth-seed in the west with a 38-28 record.
The Nuggets fell behind 2-0 in their first round series against the Lakers before battling back to win three of the next four and force a deciding game. Unfortunately for the Nuggets, that's where their season came to an end.
Analysis: There were thoughts the Nuggets might be better served by letting Fournier play in France for a year or two. However, Fournier has a high basketball IQ, has impressed in camp and may earn a few minutes here and there as he learns the NBA game.
Analysis: Concerns over a torn ACL suffered before his freshman kept Miller out of the first round but he is a steal for the Nuggets. He has a huge wingspan, can play either the three or four and is a good scorer with range to the three-point line.
Depth and Versatility for Days - The Nuggets might just have the deepest, most balanced roster in the league. Seven Nuggets averaged double-digit scoring last season and there's no reason to think that can't happen again. They are also very athletic and versatile. They can play stifling defence, crash the boards and then turn around and hurt you in a variety of ways offensively. Oppositions will simply have to pick their poison.
Landing Andre Iguodala as part of the four-team Dwight Howard trade was an absolute steal for Denver.
The Right Fit - Iguodala has found a home. He should fit perfectly into George Karl's system and finally can be the super versatile player he is without having to carry the load all by himself and pretend he is an alpha dog. Iguodala can run, rebound, pass, score, and defend at an elite level and now he is in the perfect system for his talents.
Fast and Furious - The Nuggets possess loads of athleticism and can run for days. Ty Lawson is lightning quick and should spur a ton of Denver fast breaks this year. The Nuggets can go freaky athletic with a lineup of Andre Iguodala, Kenneth Faried, JaVale McGee, Ty Lawson and Corey Brewer if they want and quite literally run around other teams.
No Go-To Guy - As deep as the Nuggets are there is no real go-to guy for those moments at the end of close games when you absolutely need a basket. Lots of guys can score but who is going to take the big shot in the clutch? This could be a problem in the playoffs.
Get ready for the season with the latest from TSN.ca.
Lack of Post Offence - The Denver big men bring alot to the table but neither Kenneth Faried nor JaVale McGee possesses a polished offensive game in the post. This could prove problematic when the Nuggets are forced to play in the half court. Opposing defences should also never have to worry about doubling down-low which means the Nuggets wings will have to work harder to find open looks.
X Factor: Danilo GallinariThe trigger-happy Gallinari is a matchup nightmare. He is 6-foot-10 but can stroke it from anywhere and isn't afraid to launch a shot at any time which helps up open up the court for the Nuggets. Shot selection can be a bit of a concern for the big Italian though, as can his trouble with injuries. If he is able to stay healthy and on the court while limiting his bad shots, Gallinari could be the clutch scorer the Nuggets need.
What to ExpectUnder Karl, the Nuggets should have no problems getting back to the playoffs. This will be a fun team to watch that could conceivably win 50+ games and maybe even challenge for a top-4 seed in the playoffs. That said, they still aren't in the same class as the upper echelon of the Western Conference and aren't really title contenders.

Danilo GallinariWilson ChandlerJordan HamiltonQuincy Miller
Andre IguodalaCorey BrewerEvan Fournier
Ty LawsonAndre MillerJulyan Stone
The Nuggets looked like they were going to spend the summer doing minor housekeeping (re-signing JaVale McGee and Andre Miller, drafting Evan Fournier and Quincy Miller).
Then they were presented with an opportunity to steal Andre Iguodala as a part of the four-team trade that sent Dwight Howard to Los Angeles.
If you can get a guy like Iguodala for Arron Afflalo and Al Harrington you make it happen.
When you're Denver, a team that Iguodala fits like a glove, you jump for joy and thank the heavens.
If they can stay healthy they are going to be a fearsome team this season.
The Nuggets open the season on the road in Philadelphia against the 76ers on Halloween.

We had it with some sweet potatoes and a kale/carrot/cabbage salad. With avocado, of course.

He was known as "The Voice of Jackson County" for a half century. Family and friends say they will miss listening to veteran broadcaster Hal Comello. The 76-year-old died this week of pneumonia. Patrice Clark takes a look back at his life and legacy.
Hal Comello's distinctive voice began captivating audiences as early as the 1960's; he began his career as a disc jockey in Jackson County.
"When people were getting ready to go on the show and say I am so nervous. He said you don't have to worry about any empty time because Hal always filled it in," Lynn Rouse said.
His best friend Lynn Rouse said Comello's larger than life voice opened a lot of doors for him over the year.
"He was called on for so many civic activities, and he would sponsor and monitor debates between both parties."
Most recently, the 76-year-old hosted a local-cable talk show, which focused on community issues and events on the coast. WGUD Owner, Tim Wall produced it.
"He helped our business. I really looked forward to seeing him every Friday and I really loved him," Colleague Tim Wall said.
But know one loved and admired the veteran broadcaster more than his 11 children, including his girls.
"We would call him and ask him to use his radio voice; we were proud as a family. He was lots of fun, never strict. He should have been, but he wasn't," Comello's family said.
His loved ones say there is no doubt the devoted father, friend and TV personality will be missed, and they promise to keep his memory alive.
"He touched so many people's lives. He meant a lot to so many people, and he is truly going to be missed," Tim Wall said. "He will forever be known to me as the voice of Jackson County."
To honor Hal Comello's memory, WGUD-TV and The Bacot McCarty Foundation officials plan to give a broadcasting scholarship to a deserving high school student every year.
Visitation for the veteran broadcaster will be held Monday January 14th from 9 to 11a.m. at Sacred Heart Church in Pascagoula, immediately followed by a funeral service.
