Just a quickie here. I come from a web design background, but I'm trying my shot at a print job for a client. I understand type in web and print can't be treated the same so my question is when is small too small in print? I have a label about 200mm x 50mm to design. Most of it will consist of artwork and some small information text. I don't have a lot of vertical room to work with and the artwork will take up much of the space. Should I use 5 point over 7 lead type for the informational text, or is this way too small to read comfortably? This product is for a younger crowd.
I've seen small yogurt containers with small type, but since I'm not a print designer, I can't tell exactly how big are these sizes just from looking. I'm in my 20's, therefore, of course I can read small text comfortably. But how small is too small?
There are a few issues here.
(1) The readabilitly of type at a certain point size, especially small sizes, depends primarily on the typeface you select. 5 point Helvetica (a fairly plain sans serif face) is much easier to read than 5 point Bodoni. Italic or oblique styles are much harder to read at smaller point sizes.
(2) With text at small sizes, be careful about what color you print. The most legible would be 100% black with no other colors. Once you get involve with any tints or combination of colors, you have to deal with the visual results of halftoning and even more so, registration of inks. If you are reverse printing, i.e. white on a background color, make sure that you use a bold style or else your text may be illegible and the darker the background color, the better.
(3) The product may be for a younger crowd, but you should not assume that all young people have perfect vision. I know plenty of younger people wearing bifocal and trifocal lens glasses. And if the information you need to print is critical to proper use of the product, making difficult to read for persons who don't have excellent vision can expose you to legal problems.
This sounds a little crazy, but what I would do is to take your design, printed at the final size, and give it to some older people, especially some obviously wearing glasses, and ask them about readibility of your design. Better yet, produce a few samples with different typefaces and styles and see the reactions.

Police: Drunk man enters strange home, fixes himself steak dinner, walks out
Burglar even takes the leftovers!
A man was drunk when he walked into a strange home early Thursday and fixed himself a late-night dinner and a nightcap as the home's occupants slept soundly on the living room couch, police said.
Steven Johnson cooked a steak on the stove and helped himself to some clams, crab, and shrimp from the refrigerator, authorities said. The man on the sofa woke up and called police after watching Johnson, 24, head out the door.
Officers arrested Johnson nearby, the Scranton Times-Tribune reported. He had made off with some of the leftovers, a box of Klondike bars, and bottles of rum and vodka, authorities said.
Johnson faces charges of burglary, criminal trespass, and public drunkenness.

HAIR is a joyous celebration of youth and a poignant journey through a tumultuous 1960s America. This exuberant musical about a group of teenagers searching for truth, peace and (free) love in a Vietnam War era America has struck a resonant chord with audiences of all ages. The themes and struggles in HAIR, although from another era, seem vital and relevant to the times we live in today in more ways than you expect until you experience the show first hand.
**Please be aware that HAIR is a 60's era protest musical that contains adult themes, rock and roll, brief nudity, and references to peace, sex, and drugs.**
Junior loves his girlfriend Gail. A lot. Also, he is terrified that his destiny is to follow in his father's footsteps. His father, a recently incarcerated and pathetically inept criminal, successfully lures Junior and Gail, in spite of their best efforts, into a series of misdemeanors that quickly escalate. Criminals in Love is a strange and enormously fun cocktail of slapstick comedy, teenage romance, action film, and social commentary.
Following in the footsteps of the wildly successful Rutabaga's Royal Academy, this totally new and totally fun family-friendly show is sure to be a hit with kids of all ages.

Keep calm and trust Tito
Tito Vilanova led Barcelona to their best Liga campaign with a record 100 points, a tremendous 115 goals and a convincing 15-point difference over archrivals Real Madrid in his first season as a professional coach.
In my opinion, the fact that such success was achieved while desperately battling with cancer throughout the year makes his performance even more impressive. However, a whopping 68 percent of Cules have publicly expressed their lack of trust in the humble Catalan manager.
While the views of such a majority must obviously be respected, I must disagree on this occasion. Appointing Tito Vilanova as Pep Guardiola's successor was certainly the right choice last summer and, 12 months on, his results and attitude toward such a high-profile role prove that he is the man to lead the Blaugranas even further if, as doctors expect, he remains fit and healthy.
The departure of Guardiola, aka the most successful manager in Barcelona history, had the potential to send the club into a chaotic spiral of negative results last summer. Such a scenario would have, inevitably, brought ongoing disagreements between opinion-makers like Sandro Rosell, Joan Laporta and Agusti Benedito back into the media spotlight, damaging club stability as a result.
Fortunately, the appointment of Vilanova brought much-needed continuity to a group of players who, from the moment the ball started rolling in preseason, felt at ease with the routines, methods and philosophy that the new coach believed in. The manager's firm, decisive personality was definitely welcome by staff, directors and fans alike.
Positive results spoke for themselves. Once the season started, the squad knew that the new boss meant business. Never afraid to make quick decisions under pressure, Tito managed to regularly change the balance of matches by introducing tactical tweaks and making game-changing substitutions on a regular basis. His ability to read and then modify games as they unfolded was obvious from the very beginning of his tenure as manager.
Many Blaugranas supporters blamed Barcelona's inability to lift the Champions League and Copa del Rey trophies on the players' obvious dip in form during the second half of the season. Personally, I feel that the forced two-month absence of Vilanova caused the players, perhaps unconsciously, to drop their intensity in training and, unfortunately, they weren't able to recover it when the crucial stages of the season came.
However, the decision to allow former scout Jordi Roura to manage the Blaugranas while Tito fought for his life in New York must come down to the club's directors, and as a result, president Rosell and his advisers must also take their fair share of responsibility for the below-par performances from that point on. Blaming a dedicated man who was struggling with illness 6,000 kilometres away from the training ground at the time is neither fair nor useful.
While it is clear that Vilanova took many steps in the right direction during his first season in charge, it is also obvious that many aspects need urgent attention if the club is to dominate at the European level again in the near future.
Let's be honest: Barcelona supporters were all shocked and utterly disappointed after being eliminated from Europe with a disheartening 7-0 score line against Bayern Munich. Such a poor result should, however, be used as a turning point and spur the club on to solve ongoing problems and take the necessary steps to ensure Cules aren't put through such pain ever again.
The recent signing of Neymar should help the team to overcome the dangerous overreliance on Lionel Messi that made the Blaugranas' attack increasingly predictable last year. Judging by Vilanova's decisive insistence on signing the talented Brazilian youngster, I am certain that the coach has already thought of many creative ways to vary the team formation and mechanisms to accommodate him in the team's attacking transitions alongside Andres Iniesta and the quadruple Ballon d'Or winner.
Conceding 40 goals in just 38 domestic league matches proves Barcelona became more vulnerable under Tito. His more direct, all-out attacking approach often left the defence exposed, making games more interesting for neutrals but definitely harder to watch for Cule supporters.
While the signing of reliable leader Thiago Silva would obviously strengthen the back line, I would also like to highlight the importance of bringing back the team's previous overall defensive intensity as a matter of urgency. Successful teams defend as a whole whenever dispossessed, not just when the last four are being faced with lightning-fast counterattacks from left, right and centre.
Bearing in mind the considerable amount of talent at his disposal, it wasn't always easy for the manager to grant youngsters as much playing time as they would have hoped. Having said that, allowing La Masia graduates to establish themselves in the first team has traditionally been a great way to keep more experienced players on their toes by adding healthy competition for the 11 starting spots.
I would love to see more of Thiago Alcantara, Cristian Tello, Martin Montoya or Marc Bartra next season -- unless, especially in the Hispano-Brazilian's case, they decide to stop fighting for their place and leave, of course.
I am confident that Tito Vilanova can build on the various successes achieved this year and use his increased level of experience to identify, then address, those areas that need urgent improvement. Great leaders are capable not only of taking difficult, perhaps controversial decisions but also uniting teams of talented professionals behind them.
You have my trust, Tito.
Have your say
I welcome and appreciate all respectful feedback.

Posted 15 May 2012 - 07:28 PM
From the charts it looks like D9S West (101 West) has even numbered tps only, and D8 has all the odd numbered transponders only. Tp 13 and 9 are on D8 unless the frequency is different. What frequencies are tp 9 and 13 on D9S? If they are the same frequency you may have voltage switching issue - but I cannot obviously be sure.

....I notice channels such as Hustler TV (599) on Tp 10 of 101West, and Playboy TV on tp 9 (channel 590) on 101West, has a VPID value of 0. In MPEG2 and MPEG4, this would normally mean there is no video, as it is not possible to have VPIDs and APIDs of 0 if you are watching or listening to something. So is there an error or can you have a VPID of 0 on a channel on DSS format....
Posted 15 May 2012 - 10:19 PM
For these kinds of questions, refer to the Network Decoder tab within the Domestic Excel. The details are all there waiting for you - in three colors.
For all the frequency information, there are many, many websites. Perhaps the easiest to work with is www.lyngsat.com. You will gain a great deal of respect for administrator Christian Lyng.

Can't grasp your idea of such interest to US provider totally unavailable in UK.
Just to let you know, I am a regular contributor to Lyngsat and very good it is - but please can someone tell me the correct VPID for all the channels listed as 0 rather than 00E6. Do I assume that the VPID is 0 if no audio PID is present so whatever receiver was used can only receive the channel properly if sound is present at the time of the scan?
If there are any channels I have missed with VPID of 0 on the spreadsheet, please can you confirm the correct VPID - is it 00E6 in all cases? Thanks.

Then, how is knowing tp/VPID/APID would help you in that (unknown to us) endeavor ? Especially, if you can't see DTV sats.

ADA News
ADA CE Online introduces Subscription 10
ADA CE Online, your one-stop shop for continuing education for dentists and members of the dental team, has launched Subscription 10—a new program that allows the dental community to select 10 courses for one simple payment of $279.
The offer is limited. Purchase by Dec. 31 to save more than $100 (based on the ADA member course fee of $38).
The key advantages of Subscription 10 are savings and flexibility. Purchasers receive a promotion code to add courses to their CE portfolio or gift the promotion codes to colleagues, referral sources and dental team members. Each code is valid until June 15, 2013, and you have up to one year to take the courses.
Give the gift of CE for the holidays this year, said Dr. Jeffrey Sameroff, editor and chief of ADA CE Online.
"If specialists want to buy Subscription 10 and share courses with their referrals, they can do that," said Dr. Sameroff. "If dentists want to buy Subscription 10 and share courses with dental team members or use them for staff meetings, that is fine, too."
There are more than 100 courses on ADA CE Online. Purchasers of Subscription 10 can select from any one-hour course such as:
•Properly Utilizing Glass Ionomers Restorative Materials in Your Practice.
•Class I Composite: Better, Faster and Easier.
•The Bare Bones Basic Emergency Drug Kit.
•Seven Signs and Symptoms of Occlusal Disease.
Courses are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. All you need is an Internet connection.
Dr. Ronald Venezie, ADA Council on Dental Education and Licensure chair, said that CDEL's Continuing Education Committee and the ADA CE Online Editorial Board "do a terrific job evaluating these courses on an ongoing basis for quality and continued professional relevance."
"At our recent meeting, the council unanimously affirmed the importance of ADA CE Online as a means to support ADA members' success throughout their careers, which is a key strategic goal of the Association," said Dr. Venezie.
Coming in 2014, CDEL is offering a budget proposal to support expanding the number of courses offered on ADA CE Online, Dr. Venezie added. "In the meantime, we are working diligently to build awareness and increase the use of this valuable service."
For more information about Subscription 10, go to www.adaceonline.org.

EPA report on impact of fracking on groundwater raises concerns
Billions in economic gains credited to fracking in South Texas
A federal agency's report that drinking water was contaminated by hydraulic fracturing operations in Wyoming has people living over the Eagle Ford Shale wondering about their water.
A report by the Environmental Protection Agency showed water wells were polluted in the town of Pavillion, Wy., and that the pollution was linked to chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing, or fracking.
In South Texas, fracking has brought traffic, jobs and billions of dollars of economic impact by helping to release valuable oil and gas from rock formations.
One aspect of the EPA report that is comforting to South Texas residents like Cindy Mercer is that it was noted that the Wyoming results were specific to that community.
Mercer is a Certified Professional Land Man, who was at Sely's Mexican Restaurant in Pleasanton on Monday. Pleasanton is in the midst of the Eagle Ford Shale boom.
At Sely's, few people were worried about the EPA report.
Mercer said precautions are taken to protect water during fracking.
"They have to set surface casing, they have to set all kinds of special plugs and everything as they go through the fresh water strata, so it's not contaminated," Mercer said.
She said fracking occurs thousands of feet deeper than the groundwater.
Melissa Bowen, another diner at Sely's, trusts scientists to keep fracking safe.
"You don't want the bad to happen and I think with the safety precautions that the EPA does have that it can be protected," Bowen said.
San Antonio does not get its water from the Eagle Ford Shale, but Anne Hayen, spokeswoman for the San Antonio Water System, said SAWS is watching what is happening.
"We're certainly keeping an eye on this," Hayden said. "At this point, it's not affecting any of our supplies."

I've had so many compliments and people who I had not seen in a while had asked if I had any procedures done. I'd never use anything else.

Though it's called "The Legend of Zelda," the video game series is actually about a hero named Link who saves a princess named Zelda. But webcomic artist Aaron Diaz ("Dresden Codak") flipped things around by making Zelda a warrior and Prince Link the one who has to be saved. Diaz's full treatment is impressive and contains lots of art for Zelda fans to drool over.

As far as epic fantasy music goes, the two-minute theme that opens each episode of "Game of Thrones" is our favorite. It can and should be played any time some epicness needs to be injected into a situation. And we like new versions of the song, including an acoustic guitar cover of the theme by YouTuber (and bedroom recording enthusiast) Blue Skies.

When we heard about the "Porn for Women" Instagram account, we balked. But it's not porn so much as gorgeous pictures of gorgeous men doing gorgeous things. And no, it's not a bunch of shirtless models (though it does occasionally feature them). Ladies (and the fellas, too) will enjoy photos of well-dressed guys, including the aforementioned models and old-school gentlemen (like Sean Connery and Marlon Brando), as well as of-the-moment men (like Ryan Gosling, Tom Hardy and Jon Hamm).

Calling the Curiosity Rover a "CSI laboratory on wheels," NASA scientist Michael Meyers led a press conference today reporting recent discoveries found by scientists/geologists working on the Curiosity Mars Rover project.
Rumors that a big discovery was going to be unveiled started a couple weeks ago when chief Curiosity scientist John Grotzinger was quoted by NPR as saying it would be something "for the history books."
At today's press conference, however, Grotzinger said organic compound discoveries could not be definitively attributed to Mars and added, "Curiosity is middle name is patience."
"I've learned you to be careful of what you say and even more careful about how you say it," Grotzinger said. "I think our enthusiasm was misunderstood."
He said the next step for the Rover will be to start drilling on the surface of Mars "sometime before the holidays."
Wheeler said the bigger discovery made was the ancient riverbed found by Rover.
NASA has been downplaying Grotzinger's statement and said today that "there is more work to do." It released the following statement today before the news conference at noon:
Rumors and speculation that there are major new findings from the mission at this early stage are incorrect. The news conference will be an update about first use of the rover's full array of analytical instruments to investigate a drift of sandy soil. One class of substances Curiosity is checking for is organic compounds -- carbon-containing chemicals that can be ingredients for life. At this point in the mission, the instruments on the rover have not detected any definitive evidence of Martian organics.
The Mars Science Laboratory Project and its Curiosity rover are less than four months into a two-year prime mission to investigate whether conditions in Mars' Gale Crater may have been favorable for microbial life. Curiosity is exceeding all expectations for a new mission with all of the instruments and measurement systems performing well. This is spectacular for such a complex system, and one that is operated so far away on Mars by people here on planet Earth. The mission already has found an ancient riverbed on the Red Planet, and there is every expectation for remarkable discoveries still to come.

Supporting the progress of its retailers
11 September 2013
Cervecería Hondureña launches the 4e programme, Camino al Progreso, which will benefit 1,350 retail owners in Honduras
Cervecería Hondureña announced the launching of its 4e Progamme, Camino al Progreso, which will benefit 1,350 retail owners nationwide.
The main goal of 4e, Camino al Progreso, is to improve the quality of life for entrepreneurial retailers and their families, as well as the well-being of their communities. The programme provides business training and takes into account family and personal transformation, and the projection of the retailer's community.
"With the programme 4e, Camino al Progreso, we want to recognise the daily efforts made by the retailers in order to advance, and the leadership roles they have in the well-being of their families and the development of their communities," stated Boyce Lloyd, President of Cervecería Hondureña S. A. "We are very proud of carrying out this initiative, which we believe will promote a major social change and will make a real difference in these communities," he pointed out.
The retailers will be provided with group training, and during the length of the programme they will have access to personal advice and follow ups in their retail stores. The training will be carried out in four stages.
Each stage will have follow ups and evaluations that will determine the progress of the participants. Also, the most outstanding retailers will have the opportunity to present an action plan that, with the help of Cervecería Hondureña, will allow them to develop a social entrepreneurship initiative in their communities.
The programme 4e, Camino al Progreso, is a SABMiller regional effort, with the goal of benefitting, within five years, 40,000 retail owners in Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, El Salvador and our own country, Honduras.
The scope and investment of the 4e Programme, Camino al Progreso, in Honduras will benefit 1,350 retail stores by 2018 (within five years) and the investment of Cervecería Hondureña will amount to 15,000,000 Lempiras, which will be used for training and technical support.
This SABMiller subsidiary news release has been translated from its local market language to English language for publication on www.sabmiller.com. We have attempted to provide an accurate translation of the original material but due to the difficulties of translation slight differences may exist.
Note, the news release was first published in its local market on September 10th, 2013.

What is in this article?:
When you think of the American Red Cross, what likely comes to mind is boots on the ground when hurricanes, earthquakes, and other natural disasters hit; international humanitarian relief efforts; blood drives; and CPR training courses. But a core part of its mission also is to support U.S. military personnel and their families. As such, the organization founded by Clara Barton more than 125 years ago has been a state-of-the-art partner in developing continuing medical education activities aimed at improving care for today's military, National Guard, and Reserves as they return from active duty in Afghanistan and Iraq.
That's what Bonnie Bixler, MEd, assistant director, continuing education, Penn State College of Medicine, in Hershey, Pa., discovered when she picked up the phone last year and found the American Red Cross' Armed Forces Pennsylvania State Manager Margaret Pepe, PhD, JD, on the line with a unique proposition. Pepe wanted to develop an educational activity that would improve the screening and referral skills of the state's primary care and mental health professionals so that they could better meet the needs of returning military service members who might be suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder or traumatic brain injury.
The two soon discovered it would take expanding the partnership to include a managed care company and Department of Defense health affiliates to pull off the activity they had envisioned. Here's how they did it.

I bore your child – that son who gave this deadly wound -
but was not good enough to be your wife.
Now you are here with me again,

Open heart surgery is a surgical procedure that involves opening the chest wall to work on the heart.
Types of Open Heart Surgery
The most common types of open heart surgery include:
During Open Heart Surgery
Open heart surgery is done under general anesthesia, which means you'll be asleep during the procedure. You'll probably be connected to a heart-lung bypass machine, which will pump your blood for you while the surgeon is working on your heart.
During your open heart surgery, the heart surgeon will make an incision in your chest. Your breastbone will also need to be separated so the surgeon can work on your heart.
Robotic Open Heart Surgery
A new technique that's being developed for use in heart surgery is robotic-assisted surgery. During robotic-assisted surgery, the surgeon uses thin robotic arms and a computer to control the surgical tools, which allows for more highly complex and precise movements. This type of surgery is generally done for minimally invasive types of heart surgery.
Open Heart Surgery Recovery
You'll probably be in the hospital for several days after open heart surgery, including a short stay in the ICU. You might have tubes in your chest to drain fluid from your heart and in your bladder to drain urine. The tubes will be removed 1-3 days after your surgery.
After surgery, you'll also have an IV line for fluids and pain medication. Make sure you tell your nurse if you're experiencing pain.
Open heart surgery recovery time will vary depending on the type of surgery you have and your overall health.
At Wake Forest Baptist Health, you'll have access to a team of health care professionals who can help you with your recovery from open heart surgery. Your team may include heart doctors (cardiologists), nurse specialists and others.
Open Heart Surgery Risks
As with any type of surgery, open heart surgery does have some risks. Some of the risks are associated with anesthesia; others are related to the procedure. Risks associated with open heart surgery may include:
You may request an appointment with a Heart Center doctor by filling out our online form.

For whatever reason these patches last much longer than the cheap chinese ones you can get worldwide. Fluid still doesn't last forever, but I haven't found a fluid that does.
I've used two patches.

In the picture I have two less patches that I used. Great to have in your pack when on the trail. Small enough to fit in a small pocket.

These are great patches that bond extremely well to your tube. No need to toss your tube after a puncture, just patch it and get back out there.

Bond helping SAISD improve security
District revisiting security plans, procedures in wake of Connecticut shooting
The shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, has school districts across the nation analyzing their security plans and procedures.
Well before last week's shooting, the San Antonio Independent School District began improving security at its campuses using bond money approved by voters in 2010.
Three new police officers were sworn in Monday night to fill vacancies in the district's police department.
According to spokeswoman Leslie Price, every high school has two dedicated officers on campus while every middle school has one officer stationed there.
Right now SAISD's elementary schools don't have their own officers but they get frequent visits from district police officers on patrol.
Even so, the district's interim superintendent, Dr. Sylvester Perez, knows adding more police isn't the answer to ending violence in our schools.
"At the end of the day we need to have a culture where our students feel very free to share any concerns they may have," Perez said.
Perez said he believes in building a culture where students aren't afraid to speak up and share potentially lifesaving information and creating a culture where teachers take all threats seriously.
The district is also using its 2010 bond to address safety issues. Price said money is being spent to install more cameras on busses and at schools. Door locks in schools are being switched out to allow teachers to lock them from inside of the classroom and campuses are moving to key card systems that require all visitors to be buzzed in to gain access during school hours.
"Another big piece is of course to have our community and our parents very much engaged and be very welcoming at school," Perez said. "However, also understanding that we must be able to screen who comes in and who comes out of our neighborhood schools."

My 7 month old son has started spitting food everywhere and blowing "raspberries" every time I try to feed him. It has gotten to the point where I dread feeding him because I get more on me than I do in him. How can I get him to realize that dinnertime is NOT a game? -- Bonnie, Strongmoms Facilitator
This is a tough task at 7 months. All you can do is negative reinforcement, but that doesn't always work at that age. For now, you may need a bib as much as the baby!
For that first year of life table foods are really just for learning, socialization and fun, so you don't have to worry to much about actual intake as long as he is getting good nutrition through either breast feeding, formula or a combo of the two. So, I'd have to agree with Answerdad, cover up-and maybe a face and eye shield too?! Just kidding, but seriously good luck and keep us posted. -Jess
Yikes! :-p I guess just maybe give him something that is safe to kind of gum on and chew a little bit till he gets out of this stage. :-p
Well when he started really blowing raspberries, I would say "okay, dinner is done" and then stop feeding him. Luckily, he got the picture and within a few weeks he was no longer "showering" us with his dinner!!! LOL!
Great news! That negative reinforcement really does work at that age!

Lounges >Marfreless Ventures
2006 Peden St, Houston, TX | Directions 7701929.752318 -95.408538
Sat-Sun: 6pm-2am, Mon-Fri: 5pm-2am
Neighborhoods: Central, Neartown/ Montrose
decent place for quiet time – one of the few places in houston scenes that you can actually carry on a coversation, so that's a plus. Place is dark, you wonder if the sofa will have bugs jumping out at you. but overall it's all good
Overblown legendary bar – Valentine's night was crowded at Marfreless -- nothing untoward happening, but the night was young. Can we talk? The place is dingy, very worn carpeting, and could use a major "freshening up." The parking situation is atrocious. The upside is it's a place where an "older" crowd can talk, without deafening noise, and feel comfortable -- not the oldest person in the room. Other than that, I've always had a hard time figuring out the allure of Marfreless, and I've been coming off and on for 25 years, as a single and as a married!
great lounge – hidden away...marfreless is a legendary wateringhole. enter through the unmarked 'service door', but watch that step down...it will surely catch you again on the way out after a few of the strong drinks they serve up. now i'm not going to say too much about the upstairs, aka 'makeout', lounge. except to say i think that the (mostly) attractive young female hostesses enjoy stepping in on their customers whilest in the throngs (or thongs) of passion. having said that, this bar is mostly for couples. if a woman in the know agrees to go there after another bar or club, well, anyway. at one time it had (does it still?) the reputation as a place where marrieds secretly align with other marrieds. the service is very good. the drinks are on the pricey side but the overall experience - and strength of the concoction offered - warrant the expense. i've never seen it very 'crowded'. the patrons tend to be 30-ish and up. it's also a pretty good place to step in alone for a late night drink. in spite of all this, it is not a place to go to meet (polite for 'pick-up') people, and if you try this you will really stick out as the biggest looser on the block. it has a legendary 'sinful' reputation and is a great place to lounge with a fav girl or boyfriend...
Fun for couples – We went to Marfreless after a show on Saturday night. I was a bit worried that the place would be dead since there hadn't been too many reviews in 2008. It was just right! The place was full but not crowded - it seemed like there was always just one or two spots available. The downstairs consists of the bar and seems like a typical if unremarkable bar. The upstairs is a loft filled with leather couches. And couples. Kissing. We had a lot of fun - we weren't sure what to expect but it was exactly as people described. There were some couples just sitting and talking and some giving little kisses now and then. There were a few couples that were making out pretty thoroughly and were definitely copping a feel now and then! The service was pretty attentive and the martinis were tasty. We ordered some edamame and it was still very cold - some pieces frozen. But we really didn't come for the food - HA! My date and I have been together for 2 years and it was fun to do something a little different romantically. If you are a bit of a voyeur or have a touch of the exhibitionist this is a PG-13 way to get your heart pumping. We did see a few couples that looked uncomfortable - these mainly looked like first dates where the guy was hoping for some action and the girl was NOT INTERESTED. So take someone who wants to kiss you. LOL.
Love this place! – I recently went here with my boyfriend for the first time and I really enjoyed it. It's a great place for some one-on-one time with your boyfriend/girlfriend. But, I do agree with the others...let's not tell too many people about this place!! It's a great secret and it wasn't over crowded or have really young people in there (which is really nice). I didn't think i'd be one to start making out with my boyfriend, but it just kinda happens without thought!! :) And, before I knew it we were doing what everyone else was doing....making out!! It was a lot of fun and I'm sure we will be going back in the future!!
I don't get it – I went there twice and it was years ago. It sounds like they got newer furniture, but it still doesn't sound good. I didn't especially care to sit on the ugly used sofas I could see (and smell) in the lighted rooms, much less go into the dark rooms. And why any grown up would want to make out here with all those other people, I really don't get. The only reason I can think of is everyone there must be cheating on someone so they can't go home and do it.
went for a kiss - got a crotch! – As the self-proclaimed "hideaway for amorous couples" Fionna and I were excited to check out Marfreless. Granted, it was a Wednesday night - but the place was about empty. I've seen more action in my swamp after having waffles with Donkey on a Sunday morning! No problem, though. We didn't go for a crowd or any paticular action anyway; we wanted some alone-time, and got it!
Spent the evening upstairs on one of the many couches. For what it's worth, the place smelled a little musty - but I got over it. My game of "tonsil broomball" with Fionna kept my mind where it should be, on her! Thanks to a misdirected light above, Fionna stood on couch above me to adjust and I got to know her a little better!
Anyway - it's an ok place (for a couple of ogre's in-lust), but I'm not sure I'd bring Snowwhite there...
really cozy...intimate... – I would have to say I completely agree with paunch17...he took the words right out of my mouth.....
make sure if you do come and forget where your at...please be sure to open the menu and read the first page...."ATTENTION"...it will get you right on together.
Totally agree with – Please lets not ruin this bar. Marfreless is Marvulous! The atmosphere is great! It's defintiely a bar you want to keep low key to keep the high end people. It's cozy and classy. I made the mistake of taking some people there and was so embarassed.This is not Bakers or Sams Boat! I go there to get away from people like that. But I really do enjoy this bar. So please people don't ruin it. Go where you know, NOT where you think you could be a part of the" marvulous marfreless crowd!"
Speechless. – Perfection at its finest.
Great 'secret' location.
Great music.
Great scene.
There's not much more to say about it.
