Vertere Pulse D-Fi
A must-audition if you can stretch your budgetWrite your own review
- Clear vocals
- punchy bass
- neat presentation
- authentic sound
- It's rather expensive
The Vertere Pulse D-Fi is one of the best-sounding USB cables we've heard.
It doesn't look the part: with its thin body and basic plugs, it resembles something you'd find bundled with a cheap printer. But the folks at Vertere have put their time and energy where it really counts.
Cables can't actively improve a recording's sound, of course, but they can adversely affect it to varying degrees. The key is to make a cable as neutral as possible when it comes to conveying information.
We started the Pulse D-Fi off with the aurally rich assault course that is the Buena Vista Social Club, and it performed with startling clarity.
Start off with Chan Chan and voices sound crisp and clean, while an impressive amount of detail affords the instruments their proper texture. The energy and enthusiasm of the recording is also maintained: skip to the instrumental Pueblo Nuevo and you can feel how much fun Rubén González has as he pounds on the ivory.
The Pulse D-Fi also has amazing control of the information it handles. De Camino A La Vereda demonstrates good organisation, tidy presentation, and impeccable timing.
Introduce Daft Punk's Tron Legacy OST for a bit of contrast and there's the same combination of insight, power and control. Fast-forward to Derezzed and the opening beat hammers you with an electrified fist.
£70 is bigger than the average price tag, but then again this is no average product. It does everything that its strongest rivals do, but it's ahead at every turn.
The Supra USB 2.0 won 2012's Award for best USB cable because it represents great value for money — but if you have cash to spare, the Vertere Pulse D-Fi would win on every level.

- Alumni Success

Colby's commitment to the liberal arts embraces the belief that the breadth and quality of a Colby education should include an equally broad choice of rewarding career opportunities. Located in the Eustis Administration Building, the Office of Career Services strives to acquaint students with career options, to offer insight into various professions, and to assist in students' preparation for their career search. Students, parents, and alumni are invited to visit the office to discuss career concerns, offer suggestions, and use the resources available.
The staff works with academic advisors and other members of the faculty and staff to assist students in the selection of courses and experiential options that best meet their individual interests and needs. Students considering careers in medicine, veterinary medicine, and dentistry are advised to meet with a member of the Health Professions Preparation Committee as early as possible in the first year, and those interested in law and business should see the pre-law or pre-business advisors.
The Career Services library includes extensive information on career fields, job-search techniques, current employment openings for permanent and summer positions, internships, and graduate-degree programs. Computers also are available for student use.
Students are encouraged to experiment with FOCUS and Do What You Are, computer programs that provide interest testing and value determination as well as information about hundreds of professions. Workshops and individual counseling on career exploration, job search, and interviewing techniques can be as helpful to the underclass student seeking a summer job or January internship as to the senior seeking a permanent career opening. In addition, a reference file may be opened at any time, and a weekly e-mail newsletter is distributed listing current activities and programs as well as career-related opportunities. All job openings also are posted in eRecruting, a searchable Web site accessible on the Career Services home page (www.colby.edu/career.serv).
For seniors, a recruitment program brings representatives from graduate and professional schools to the campus in the fall and from a wide variety of employers throughout the year. Consortium programs with other institutions allow opportunities to interview with a variety of additional firms and organizations at single locations in Boston and New York. In the office seniors may obtain information about and applications for the Graduate Record Examinations, Graduate Management Admission Test, Law School Admission Test, Medical College Admissions Test, National Teachers Examination, and the Foreign Service Examination. The LSAT and GRE subject tests are administered at Colby each year.
With the generous support of Colby graduates and parents of current students, a broad network of persons in various professions and widespread geographical locations exists to assist students and alumni in career exploration. Parents and alumni have agreed to conduct informational interviews, to be hosts for on-site visits, and to sponsor internships for January and the summer, and they can be contacted through an online directory. Information on these opportunities can be obtained from the Office of Career Services. More specific information on January internships is available in the Office of Career Services.

"What we do is competitive," he says. "I expected massive backlash. I know how this works. People who watch expect you to be great all the time. If I were watching, I'd expect the same.
"I was also sponsored by the National Guard. I had a responsibility to that. I'm a nostalgic American, not a flag-waving one."
He clicked back into driver's mode when he realized he had no brakes. He banged harmlessly into the wall on Turn 1 and finally stopped. It was time to climb out and start facing the music.
Still a racing rookie, he performed like a public relations pro.
Sunday, he will start 10th in the Indy 500. He says he is happy with his car, that his focus all month has been more on racing than on qualifying.
Hildebrand the rookie had replaced Wheldon on the Panther Racing team in 2011, then lost the biggest race of his life to the man he had replaced.
He was still a rookie when, five months later at Las Vegas, he was near the front of a 15-car wreck that sent the popular Wheldon's car airborne into a fatal crash and put Hildebrand in the hospital.
He is no longer a rookie. At 23, he had a defining moment in his sport. Now, at 25, he hopes to have another, but in his race car, rather than in front of reporters.
That would create a moment of irony. Hildebrand will drive a DW12 Chevrolet. The chassis is named in honor of Wheldon.

The midnight fireworks that heralded in 2013. This New Year's Eve, Sydney will get three displays. Photo: Wolter Peeters
The organisers of Sydney's New Year's Eve fireworks must think the average Sydneysider has the attention span of a half-witted gnat.
Given that scientists last year estimated that our average grip on detail lasted a full eight seconds, compared with 12 seconds in 2000, the decision to hold an extra fireworks show at 10.30pm is not a surprise.
What is a surprise is that they didn't decide to hold fireworks all evening long.
Why not let off a big bang every eight seconds?
Why not go the whole hog like American football and Cricket Australia's Big Bash and fill every second of potential silence with laser beams, fireballs and mandatory singing of the national anthem?
Have we really lost the art of simply sitting around with our families and friends and talking?
Maybe this decision says something about our national inability to have fun without alcohol. The best viewing spots will be alcohol free, which can often turn a fun family evening out into an endurance test.
According to the organisers, the one-minute firework show at 10.30pm was designed to "fill that gap between 9pm and midnight".
The designer of the fireworks Fortunato Foti said he hoped that the 1.5 million people expected at the harbour and another 1.1 billion worldwide who will watch a telecast of the festivities will be surprised.
"We want people to go away thinking 'We haven't seen that', and for one or two things to stick in their memory," he said.
Three firework shows costing $6.8 million and we still worry that people won't remember any of it the next day.
I think our collective attention span for next year will be estimated at zero.
As a parent of 11-year-old twins, I can only imagine the pain about to be endured by parents planning a quick getaway after the 9pm fireworks. "Mum, mum, they said there were more fireworks at 10.30. Can't we stay? Please please."
Surely there are better ways to spend the money.
We could buy 680,000 mosquito nets to protect African children from malaria, according to the Gates Foundation.
We could help the 638,000 Australian children living in disadvantage who don't have school bags, proper uniforms or school books.
The Smith Family provides sponsorships of these kids for less than $1.50 a day.
We could also provide some retraining for workers who face losing their jobs on the Holden production line.
I love fireworks. But after the first oohs and aahs, I have had enough.
I don't want more fireworks.
I want the ones we have got to be a celebration of all that is good and generous about us Australians. Not a celebration for its own sake.

The district has been reviewing the start and end times at the elementary, middle and high school levels for the past year. School start and end times are referred to as "bell schedules" and the idea to improve the district's bell schedule originally emerged as a way to save on transportation costs. During the research process, it became clear that the more important impact would be on student achievement, attendance and safety, the district reported in a release last week.
Last spring a plan was launched to gather input from district staff, parents and community members through a survey and school-based meetings.
Results from a survey taken in the spring showed favor for moving the middle school start time to later in the day and adding 30 minutes to most elementary school schedules. A bell schedule committee has been researching some remaining issues to be resolved before any change could be implemented.
Sparks Middle School Principal Kevin Carroll, who is also a member of the committee studying the bell schedule, says middle school students could benefit from the changes.
"Research shows that middle school and high school adolescent minds perform best later in the morning," said Tami Berg, vice president of Legislative Services for the Nevada Parent Teacher Association (PTA) and a bell schedule committee member. "While there are pros and cons to any bell schedule change, the benefit for the students outweighs the negative concerns in my opinion as a parent."

Email Story RSS Permalink Print The Christmas Tree chosen for the White House this year heralds the Tarheel State. Father and son team Rusty and Beau Estes, operators of Peak Farm, recently received the honor for one of their Ashe County, N.C., trees, to be installed in the White House's Blue Room. Travis Birdsell, an Ashe County assistant Extension agent, now works with Christmas tree growers in Ashe County and helped the Estes prepare the Fraser fir for shipment to the District of Columbia. An Extension press release on the choice notes selection for the honor is treated to a lengthy process and involved process. Rusty Estes acknowledges that. "Each year, the North Carolina Christmas Tree Association has a tree contest, and if you win your state association, you get to go on and compete in the national contest against other states," Rusty explains. "You win there, you get the right to present the tree to the White House."CHRISTMAS HONORS: Rusty Estes, his son Beau, and N.C. Cooperative Extension agent Travis Birdsell get ready to cut the Christmas tree chosen for the White House in 2012. The tree is a Fraser fir grown on the Estes' Peak Farm in Ashe County, N.C. Photo courtesy of Dave Caldwell. Once the winning farm is announced, staff from the White House pick the tree from several offerings from the farm. This year Peak Farms will also provide the Christmas tree on the White House grounds. Cool Springs Nursery in Avery County, owned by brothers Mark and Paul Smith, took second place in the national tree contest and will provide three trees for the vice president's house. This is the second time Rusty Estes has received the honor of presenting the top Christmas tree to the White House. In addition to this year's offering, he also provided the first family's tree in 2008. As part of the honor, Rusty, Beau and their families will get to tour the White House. They'll see their tree ornamented for the season. They'll also get the opportunity to meet First Lady Michelle Obama. Rusty notes there is a lot of work involved in producing a high performing Christmas tree. He mentions, for example, the work with herbicides and keeping pesty deer at bay. It is payback for all the hard work when Peak Farms trees are honored. "You get some recognition for what you do with your work," says Rusty. "And probably as a tree farmer, there is no higher recognition. This story was adapted from a press release by Dave Caldwell, director of Communication at North Carolina State University's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences.

Things I liked:Well made all metal construction, Grips will interchange with a real 1911, Two power levels is a nice feature, Tight grouping at 75 feet
Things I would have changed:I can't think of any. Sorry
What others should know:You won't be disappointed!!!
Things I liked:accurate...well built...quality
Things I would have changed:Method of loading pellet...akward to load upside down
What others should know:I would highly recommend !!!
Things I liked:There are so many things I like about my P1...where do I start? The build quality is almost unbelievable especially in this day & age...this is an heirloom quality pistol. All metal & wood & with extra quality touches like a finely blued compression tube & cocking links, sharply checkered walnut grips(mine came with tiger striping), no casting seams anywhere on the pistol frame(not even on the hammer) etc. etc. Besides the aesthetic charm of this pistol you also get an HW barrel & trigger that have to be considered among the best you will find on any production sporter class gun. I could go on & on.... Even under close scrutiny I can't find any faults with this pistols build quality & materials. My P1 truly exceeded my expectations...even for the price.
Things I would have changed:The only thing I would change is the white lettered "Warning read the owners manual..." disclaimer on the right side of the pistol frame...other than that I wouldn't change a thing.
What others should know: Before I ordered my P1 I already had a set of aftermarket finger grooved walnut combat grips picked out to replace the factory grip panels with. Now, after seeing the factory grips that came on my P1 in person, I won't be ordering the aftermarket grips. The factory walnut grip panels that came on my P1 have a beautiful grain, are tiger striped & have some of the finest checkering I've ever seen... That scenario about the grip panels actually sums up my expectations & experience with my P1 in general. It simply exceeded my expectations in every way. Do you like premium high quality wood & metal guns? Do you like fine triggers & precision barrels? Been looking for a powerful springer pistol? Do yourself a favor & don't deprive yourself of this one...yep it is that good!

Safe & Secure Since 1998
We are America's go to place for bad credit loans.
We are America's go to place for bad credit loans.
Every day, we help people like you secure loans regardless of your credit rating. We'll help you find solutions to your financial needs.
Your application is safe and secure with Bad Credit Loans our website is protected by the most up-to-date encryption technology.
Apply for a loan any time day or night. Get the loan you want, and review the offer presented to you before accepting. No fees or obligation to apply.
We'll help you access funds to pay off past-due bills, fix the car, or take care of whatever is holding you back—today.
For those with bad credit, personal loans to see them through an emergency financial situation are easy to find if you know where to look. At Bad Credit Loans, we understand that there are emergencies no one can plan for, and we aren't limited to helping only consumers with perfect credit. Sometimes a run of bad luck comes up through no fault of your own. However, as long as you're working, we have the resources to lend you a helping hand no matter if your credit is good or bad. We want to help inform you on making responsible lending decisions and then connect you to available lenders if you feel a bad credit loan would be right for you.
Bad Credit Loans Can Help
We know that it's the people who are struggling that really need the personal loans, not those with the spotless credit histories who are paying all their bills on time. A perfect spending history simply isn't possible for many American households, especially in times like these. No matter how well you've planned your budget and spending strategies, they can still be thrown off by one unexpected car repair or other emergency when already living check to check.
An installment loan can get you to your next check when there are no other solutions.
Fast, Convenient Applications
Our online system makes it easier than ever to apply. The entire process is quick and convenient, plus you won't have to worry that your credit score will get you turned down. Just take a moment or two to fill out the online application. Our network of reputable lenders will review it immediately.
Approval also happens online, and the money from the lender you select can be deposited electronically right into the checking account that you provide us. There's no waiting around for approval, and no waiting around for a paper check to arrive in the mail. Your approved loan is deposited no later than the following business day.
When Lenders Compete, You're Always the Winner
Because our network of lenders provides you with multiple lenders and loan offers to choose from following approval, you can be sure that you are getting the best rates available. Our lenders know they aren't the only place providing personal loans that you will see, so they try to keep their rates and fees as low as possible. Bad Credit Loans lets you comparison shop all in one place.
Full Disclosure
With the personal loans our lenders offer, you will always know exactly what to expect before you are under any obligation to actually take out the loan. All the lenders in our network strictly follow the Truth in Lending Act, which means that you'll receive documentation of every last detail of your loan beforehand. You'll be able to see all applicable interest rates, possible fees, and all other information on your loan, allowing you to make an informed, responsible borrowing decision without any pressure.
Simple Qualifications
The approval process for bad credit loans is very straightforward. We require that you're a legal citizen and an adult (age 18 or older). You'll need to provide some other basic information for the transaction to take place, such as a valid email address, working phone number, and the bank account where you'd like the money transferred. It's that easy.
Combining a fast application and approval process with an equally fast delivery system makes getting a bad credit loan easy.
More Than Just a Loan
While we try to connect everyone with the personal loans they want, we are especially concerned with keeping consumers applying only for the loans they need. We offer a variety of free, expertly written articles explaining every part of the loan process. You can also find articles replete with:
The Cost of Not Getting a Loan
Financial emergencies can strike without any warning: the car could break down, a bill may have gone unnoticed and unpaid for too long, but really, dwelling on the possibilities could last a long time. and isn't fixing anything.
At Bad Credit Loans, we are more interested in helping you create solutions. Hoping that an emergency will just "go away" if you ignore it tends to only make things worse via late fees and other penalties. Staying pro-active keeps you informed and in control. A quick influx of much-needed funds, when used responsibly, can be exactly what you need to keep bills from getting out of hand.
Unfortunately, no matter how hardworking you are, it doesn't protect you in an emergency. Most lenders won't approve those who are struggling to make ends meet, but at Bad Credit Loans, that's exactly why we offer our services: We connect you with lenders ready to help.
In today's world, it's become all too easy to get trapped by finances. Bad Credit Loans gives you a way out by connecting you to the assistance you need to help weather a financial emergency and get back on track quickly and responsibly.
Bad Credit Loans isn't a lender and doesn't provide unsecured loans, but it refers consumers to lenders who may provide such loans. Bad Credit Loans cannot provide you with the exact APR (annual percentage rate) that you will be charged should you be approved for a short-term loan. APRs vary according to the information that is supplied by you in your loan request and by your lender. Your lender will provide you with the APR, loan fees and other terms when you are redirected to your loan agreement during the loan request process. For help with any Bad Credit Loans–related services, feel free to contact us.
The APR on a short-term cash loan can range from 230 to 2,330 percent depending on exactly how it is calculated, the duration of the loan, any loan fees incurred, late payment penalties, nonpayment fees, loan renewal actions and various other factors. Please keep in mind that the APR range and your finance charge are not one and the same. The latter will be disclosed later on in the loan request process.
To see a representative example of a cash loan APR range, click here.
Short-term cash loans are somewhat expensive when compared with other loan products. They are not recommended as a long-term financial solution, and they should only be taken out for emergency financial needs.
*Calculation: (lender fee / loan amount) x (amount of days in a year / duration of the loan) x 100
Low end of range: ($30 / $1,000) * (365 days / 14 days) x 100 = 78.21 percent
High end of range: ($60 / $1,000) * (365 days / 14 days) x 100 = 156.43 percent
We would like to remind you that Bad Credit Loans is not a lender, and it doesn't charge users any fees for its services. Every lender in the Bad Credit Loans affiliate network provides consumers with specific terms, conditions and practices prior to their acceptance of offered loans. Bad Credit Loans strongly recommends that you carefully review the terms and conditions of any loan offer that you receive. For further details about the aforementioned considerations, please see our Rates & Fees and Policy on Responsible Lending Web pages.
When you accept the terms and conditions of a particular loan offer, you are agreeing to pay back the loan principal and finance charges in the amount of time that is specified in the documents your lenders supplies you with. Additional fees/charges by your lender may apply if you are not able to repay your loan in full or if you make a late payment. Bad Credit Loans is not able to predict the amount of the penalties that you will incur as a result of nonpayment, late payment or partial payment. Bad Credit Loans has no control over knowledge of the loan details between you and the lender with whom you are working. Please refer to the nonpayment, late payment and partial payment policies detailed in your lender's loan documents. Bad Credit Loans makes a concerted effort to work only with reputable lenders who are dedicated to pursuing collections of past-due accounts in a wholly fair and reasonable manner.
If you are approved for a cash loan, your lender will inform you of the exact interest rate and fees attached to your loan prior to your acceptance of said loan. As stated earlier, Bad Credit Loans is not a lender and is unable to predict the exact interest rate and fees for the loan option presented to you. You are under absolutely no obligation at all to accept the loan terms that the lender presents you with.
Bad Credit Loans does not make credit decisions nor does it conduct credit inquiries on consumers. Some lenders in the Bad Credit Loans affiliate network may conduct a nontraditional credit check in order to determine your eligibility for a cash loan. Lenders typically do not conduct credit inquiries with the three major credit bureaus (TransUnion, Experian and Equifax). Ultimately, your credit score may or may not be impacted by the actions of a specific lender. If you do not pay back your loan on time your lender may choose to report this delinquency to one or more credit bureaus, with the end result being that your credit score could be negatively affected. We wholeheartedly encourage consumers to consult a credit counseling company in the event that they are experiencing credit problems.
Loan renewal policies are largely governed by state regulations. Your lender will present you with available loan renewal options prior to your acceptance of their loan offer. Please be sure to diligently read the lender's renewal policy prior to signing the loan documents. Short-term cash loans are meant to be a short-term financial instrument. Bad Credit Loans encourages all consumers to repay their loan in full and on time in order to avoid late payment and/or nonpayment penalties. If you think there's a possibility you could end up being unable to pay off a cash loan that you borrow, we would recommend that you explore different loan alternatives before applying for a loan through our website.
Again, Bad Credit Loans is not a lender, and moreover, it doesn't engage in debt collection practices. Your lender's collection practices will be clearly disclosed to you in the loan documents that you receive. Should you be unsure of the specific collection practices used by a particular lender, we strongly advise that you discuss this issue with the lender directly. Bad Credit Loans makes reasonable efforts to only work with reputable, established lenders who pursue collections of past-due loan accounts with fair conduct.

Comments about Nano Puff Vest - Men's:
I have been looking for a versatile base layer that could provide a little warmth without a lot of bulk or weight. This works very well, although as others have mentioned if you need more warmth and don't mind a little extra puff then consider the down version. I am 5'10" 170 lbs and wear a 42" sportcoat. The medium fits me fine with just a little room to spare across the chest, so I have room to add a light layer.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The Alliance Goes Dutch
17 Oct 12
Slow Food's project, The Alliance between Chefs and Slow Food Presidia, has launched in the Netherlands. The project brings together chefs with Presidia producers - small-scale farmers, fishers, breeders and food producers who, through their daily work, preserve rich gastronomic traditions at risk of extinction. Their foods are made with respect for the environment, seasons and local cultures and traditions. For many years Slow Food has been working to bring these products back to the market and ensure their future.
The Alliance project was launched in 2009 in Italy by the Slow Food Foundation for Biodiversity to bring together these producers with chefs who want to use traditional and fresh ingredients on their menus and support small-scale producers and local economies. Participating chefs in the now-325 partner restaurants commit to using Slow Food Presidia products in their cooking and indicating their names on their restaurant menus, along with the Presidia logo.
The project was launched in the Netherlands this summer and already involves four restaurants: Merkelbach, Pianeta Terra, Osteria italiana Al Bácaro and Caffè Toscanini. Restaurants have already paired up with Dutch producers and feature Presidia such as Texel Sheep Cheese, a rustic cheese from the island of Texel, and Eastern Scheldt Lobster on their menus, as well as a number of ingredients from international Presidia such as Salina Capers (Italy), Huehuetenango Highland Coffee (Guatemala) and Mananara Vanilla (Madagascar).
The entry of the Netherlands in the project will be officially launched next week at the Salone del Gusto and Terra Madre, where participating Dutch chefs will be cooking at the Alliance Osteria on Sunday, October 28 from 1:00 pm until 3:30 pm. They will serve up traditional Dutch and Italian dishes made with Presidia products, presenting the Alliance as a true international project.
The Alliance Osteria can be found on the first floor of the Visitors' Gallery, Lingotto Fiere. Find out more at www.slowfood.com

We've got some severe T-Storms rolling thru tonight!
How about where you are?? :D
We're waiting for the leading edge you had a few hours ago. Should be wonderful sleeping weather. Nothing like thunderstorms at night for sleeping.
My sister lives here:
http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/weather/0...aska.storm.ap/Tornadoes were also reported in Kearney, about 60 miles west of Aurora, where 90 rail cars were blown off the tracks outside the city limits. There were reports of downed trees and power lines throughout Kearney, and reports of damage on the University of Nebraska at Kearney campus and at a county fairgrounds.
My mom is there visiting.....everyone is ok. They simply lost power for a while....but they know others touched by the storm. My family was very lucky.

Biomedical engineering is a favorite interdisciplinary field of study for engineering undergraduates, and Biomaterials and Biomechanics are among the most popular engineering electives at Cooper. In fact, in the last decade, at least 40 students earned master's degrees in biomedical engineering.
Over the past several years, Cooper has received more than $1.3 million in external funding for bioengineering. These funds have helped the College acquire a Bionix 858 Materials Testing System.
In related design equipment, the engineering school also maintains a gait analysis laboratory with a B&K Type 4440A Gaiting System, a video microscopy laboratory with a cellular activity video imaging system, and robotics and acoustics laboratories.

Serves 4
Served with soft corn tortillas, this traditional Costa Rican dish works for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Salsa Lizano is a Costa Rican condiment that's similar to Worcestershire sauce but thicker and sweeter—you can substitute Worcestershire for it, but the flavor will be more assertive.
Put the rice, a big pinch of salt, and 1-1/2 cups of water in a 3-quart saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the rice has absorbed the water and is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside with the lid on.
Meanwhile, heat 1 Tbs. of the oil in a 4-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, garlic, and a pinch of salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the cumin and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomato sauce and stir for 1 minute. Add the beans and 1 cup of water and simmer until the liquid reduces to the level of the beans, about 4 minutes.
Add the rice to the beans and mix well. Stir in the Salsa Lizano and season to taste with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
Heat the remaining 1 Tbs. of oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat, swirling the pan to coat evenly. Gently crack the eggs into the pan. Season with salt and pepper, cover, and cook until the yolks' edges have just begun to set, 2 to 3 minutes. (The eggs should cook gently, so lower the heat if needed.) Separate the eggs with the edge of a spatula.
To serve, put a heaping spoonful of the rice and beans on a plate and slide 2 eggs on top. Sprinkle with the cilantro.
Serve with Jícama, Avocado, Radish & Orange Salad with Cilantro or a simple green salad.

10/23/2012I loved it. Pretty much anything with eggs I'll love but the Salsa Lizano put a whole new spin on it. I was able to find Salsa Lizano rather easily online at amigofoods.com

7/22/2011My husband and I loved this recipe! I use the beans and rice as a side dish with a number of different meat & fish dishes. I have used yellow rice instead of the white. It is easy and the flavors are wonderful. Had to go to a Latin market for the Salsa Lizano but well worth the search!.

4/13/2011This must be for someone who doesn't care for absolute authenticity because we loved it. Couldn't find the Salsa Lizano so took Fine Cooking's recommendation and used Worcestershire sauce. Still outstanding. Read my full review at: http://www.takingonmagazines.com/2011/04/rice-and-beans-with-fried-eggs-from.html

4/8/2011Not very flavorful. I think I'll go hunting for a more authentic version of this recipe. Also, I think it's really tough for most people to find Salsa Lizano.

4/1/2011Traditionally Costa Ricans use leftover rice to make their rice and beans. And there is always a pot of beans simmering or in the fridge. So there is NO way the rice is just boiled white rice. First they fry some diced onion, diced sweet red pepper, some minced garlic, shredded carrot and chopped cilantro in a bit of oil, then they add the washed and drained rice and continue to saute until fragrant, adding a bit of salt at the same time. Once fragrant, they add hot water to cover ( I never measure) and cook, covered over a medium fire until water is almost absorbed, then pull the rice from the sides of the pot piling it on top. Do not STIR. Recover and turn down low until all the water is absorbed. Turn off and let sit at least 15 minutes, then fluff with a large meat fork. Costa Ricans don't like their rice overcooked.
Beans are cooked at home with all the same ingredients as the rice except the carrot, and spices are added...something called bomba(ground tumeric, garlic powder, paprika, ground thyme, cumin, and ground celery seed)as well as a bit of oil.
When making gallo pinto (rice and beans) onion, garlic, sweet pepper and cilantro is again sauted, then the beans with some of their liquid are added. Some people mash the beans a bit, some don't. At this time, Salsa Lizano can be added. There must be enough liquid in the pot so that when the rice is added it can absorb some of the liquid from the beans.
Gallo Pinto is often served with sour cream, fried plantains,and what ever else is leftover from the night before, as this is breakfast!!

Tattoos >Jester's Court Tattoos & More
1410 E Carson St, Pittsburgh, PA | Directions 1520340.428703 -79.983637
Neighborhoods: Southside Flats
Mark Patrick now works at Jester's Court Tattoos in South Side! Not only is this experienced artist talented but he is also dreamy!
BEST TATTOO EXPERIENCE POSSIBLE – My best friend and I decided to get matching tattoos to memorialize our love for Harry Potter the night of the last movie. Because this would be both of our first tattoos, we decided to do some heavy research. Her uncle highly recommended Jester's Court, which was the first place we looked into.
Most of the reviews made us more than a little skeptical, but we decided to go visit the place regardless and check it out for ourselves. From the moment we walked in, we received great service. As walk-ins, they took down our info and agreed to call us as soon as there was an opening. We only had to kill time for about an hour (which is EXTREMELY easy to do in the south side) and when we came back they were ready to take us. Michael Patrick did my tattoo exactly how I hoped it would be... no, in fact it ended up being better than I could have imagined. He was funny & conversational the whole time & I cannot understand how he could have received poor reviews from anyone else. I was really nervous, but he managed to make the whole experience fun & enjoyable and most importantly, I feel like this new, permanent part of my body was done perfectly and precisely to my wishes.
From sanitation standards (everything was new and unwrapped in front of us) to the atmosphere to the artist, everything about Jester's Court was AWESOME!
michael patrick = terrible tattoo 'artist' – i went here under the reccomendation of a good friend. i wanted to start a full sleeve. i met with michael patrick & had two sessions with him. i tried to contact him several times to schedule my next session. he didn't even have the balls to return any of my calls. it's pretty sad that the 'artist' who started my sleeve couldn't even finish it. the work he did do was very spotty & i had it redone. i ended up going to crayons & thank god for devin, he did a terrific job. i can't speak for the other tattoo artists at jester's, but AVOID MICHAEL PATRICK LIKE THE PLAGUE.
Good not great, but better than most – Sean did a tat for me and aside from a heavy hand he added shading that I didn't want or ask for nor was it mentioned or present on the sketch he drew up. I wouldn't have cared as he knows what looks best (as the artist) BUT it was grey shading behind relatively small black lettering (each letter is about the size of a dime), which made them very hard to read. I wasn't thrilled about something being added to my body forever w/o asking.
Michael Patrick had a very poor attitude as well. Short answers, very closed lipped, distracted and overall unwilling to elaborate on anything from art, price, process or availability - giving off a very unsure feeling to me about...well...everything.
Patrick proceeded to talk loudly to my artist during my tattoo session. In a supposedly sterile environment, it wasn't very reassuring to have him leaning over the cubical walls that separate artist spaces, have him coughing and listening to him speak of unprofessional personal things like relationship issues and smoking pot while minors are present. When you can smell and feel his breath (once again in a supposedly sterile environment) when he isn't the artist working on you, he's too close. I felt like he was talking through me to get to the artist working on me who seemingly just wanted to concentrate on the task at hand - the tattoo that I am paying and tipping for.
If I were to return, I wouldn't go to Sean (despite his many success) or Mike Patrick.
I have certainly been treated worse in other shops, but the overall feeling of "settling" is present.
These artists are settled, used to what they do, and do it fairly well and therefore little things that you become desensitized over time to, BUT are absolutely crucial for people entering your shop to see just isn't executed.
With a little self conciseness work and a little professionalism update, they could easily be the number one tatto shop in Pittsburgh.
This crew of artists really care about their work! – Check out their portfolios, they are amazing1
Great, Reliable shop. – After being shafted at another shop (the artist didn't show), I ran to Jester's Court to see if they could squeeze me in for a tattoo. I got great service and was taken in the next day. I think it was obvious how upset I was to lose my first appointment (which I waited a week for). The best part is that my tattoo is even better than I imagined it would be. And, the work came in over $150 cheaper than the quote I got at the first shop.
Rick worked with me and was an awesome, helpful person. I'd recommend him to anyone.
(By the way, I was in the Etna shop for this, not the South Side.)
great tattoo shop michael patrick did a wonderful job with my tattoo and i would definitely go back there and recommend it to everyone.
Nightmarish. – I had a horrible experience at this tattoo shop. The "artist" rushed me through the entire process, and gave me pathetic excuse for a tattoo. It only took him about 3 minutes, and once it healed, parts had no color, the outline wasn't finished, and it looked a mess. I ended up going to American Tattoo in Vernoa to have it covered up and done correctly. Chris Roseone worked on it for about an hour and it came out beautifully and exactly how I wanted it. Do not go to Jester's Court. Waste of money and terrible work.
