Diner Reviews
Food was not as great as I
thought. Good but not great. "
Dined on 4/19/2014
The 3 stars for service was
because although our waiter Roy was outstanding, he had no control of the kitchen wait time. Even with a reservation, we waited at our table for an hour & a half for the lunch entrees to be served. The food was excellent & the meal would have been so perfect if not for the wait. It was Cherry Blossom festival weekend, but we were one of the first diners to check in at the outdoor patio area. The coffee bar for mornings did have quick service & had very good fare as well. Loved the Willard overall!"

We visit DC pretty regularly now
because one of our kids is here in college. Saw this place 4 yrs. ago and finally got there for dinner. Of course, when I made the reservation I didn't expect as nice a night weatherwise as it was, it would have made it perfect to have eaten outside! Everything was just delicious! I would highly recommend Cafe du Parc to anyone visiting DC! Great meal! Everyone had something different and all were raving! I ordered the mussels...there weree 80! No kidding! The entire table could have fed off this dish as their dinners!"
Dined on 4/10/2014
That's about it -- food and
service are fine, but not memorable. The first time there was much better than the last two."

Convenient before going to
National Theatre. Great salad."

Six of us visited Cafe du Parc
last Saturday night. Our drink orders were taken straight away by a very pleasant waiter who was attentive and professional. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with the cooking. Attractively presented, the steak tartare, roast chicken, salmon and vegetables lacked basic seasoning (i.e., salt and pepper). Although the sauce served with the chicken was delicious, the bird was profoundly overcooked and dry. The salmon was likewise overcooked and entirely flavorless. The mussels and fries were the exception with a tasty basic parsley, garlic and white wine bath. It was a birthday dinner for two of us, but because of the experience with appetizers and main courses, we passed on desert."

This has been one of my DC go to
restaurants for years. Reliable, good French bistro."
Dined on 3/27/2014
I love this place because it is
casual dining but with flair and great food and service."
Dined on 3/22/2014
the menu is limited but the food
items are done well; decent wine list; accurate French cuisine versus fusion; like in a simple Paris bistro; excellent bread"
Dined on 3/15/2014
We reserves two for dinner on
advance to celebrate our anniversary while in D.C. We arrived a day before our reservations & in searching for a restaurant for lunch during the week, saw several reviews stating Cafe' du Parc was a disappointment in several areas. We became quite apprehensive and considered canceling our reservations. We decided to keep the reservations and take the risk. We are so glad we did. The food and wine were excellent and service was attentive but not intrusive. And The Willard Hotel is so overwhelming beautiful."
Dined on 3/17/2014
We come here often and as usual
the food was very carefully prepared. I had the seared halibut with the most delicious asparagus that I have had in memory. My friends enjoyed their entree as much as if did mine."
Dined on 3/15/2014
Had a friendly, attentive server
who helped make the dining experience a pleasure. Roast chicken with a nice bed of mixed mushrooms was moist with crisp skin. Mashed potatoes on the side were creamy. All around very nice lunch spot near the Ronald Reagan Building."
Dined on 3/12/2014
I was treated by my husband to my
birthday dinner at Café DuParc and show at the National. What a memorable evening. The food was excellent. I'll remember it for years. Quality ingredients, careful planning, and preparation were a delight. We were especially impressed with the charcturie appetizer. My husband, a meat-a-holic, said it was by far the best he's ever had. My advice is to split the appetizer, as the portions of all courses were generous. The service was friendly and there was a birthday card waiting for me at our table when we arrived signed by the kitchen staff, which was very sweet. After the show we had drinks at the Robins Nest, also in the Willard. For all you guys out there -- this is a easy to pull-off fancy date night."
Dined on 3/8/2014
Overall the food was good although
my steak was way overcooked which was surprising given how few people were in the restaurant. Our server was very quick, too quick. He asked for a drink order and immediately began pushing us to order. The restaurant wasn't full so there was no reason to try and flip the table. That being said our server was very nice and based on where the restaurant is located has to deal with a fair amount of tourists. I can't say I would go back given the price points."
Dined on 3/8/2014
Cafe du park is located at the
Willard Hotel and thus is strategically located in one of the most picturesque and historical neighborhoods in DC. Plenty to do and see both before and after a meal. Our dinner (for 6) was excellent, as was the service and the prices."
Dined on 3/8/2014
The decor is classic yellow and
white French with an open kitchen to the dining room which overlooks classical DC architecture, the White House and parks. Amazing atmosphere that reminds us of our favorite cafe in Paris. The manager stopped by noting that we had moved our reservation a number of times from the original Valentine's Day and had champagne served as if we were there on the right day. Very personal experience. The food was excellent if unimaginative although it completely and accurately fits the French Cafe in Paris theme. The dessert was exceptional, fresh and imaginative: pineapple carpaccio. Worth every dollar on a very nice evening out on the town."
Dined on 3/8/2014
Cafe Du Parc finds itself just off
the back of the exquisite Willard Hotel. Although the restaurant itself sits in the hotel it does not have the same grande feel, however, it still maintains ambiance and charm without a bank breaking budget."
Dined on 2/21/2014
I took my daughter (16) and a good
friend here for dinner. My friend was quite late and we waited for her to order. The waiter and staff were so sweet and never pressured us at all. The bread was delicious. We had plump muscles, pate and salad to start and everything was very good. The portions were large and we could have stopped there or shared a main. My daughter had the steak and fries (steak cooked well and yummy frites), I had onion soup and my friend had salmon. The only small complaint from my friend was that the salmon was salty for her taste. The restaurant is upstairs and we had a nice table with a pretty view of the lights outside the Willard. All in all, a very pleasant experience and I wouldn't hesitate to go back!"
Dined on 2/22/2014
We initially chose Cafe Du Parc
with the hope that we could practice french and enjoy french cuisine. Unfortunately, our waiter spoke no french. The food was okay. I ordered the salad with crab cakes and remoulade sauce. It was a nice sized portion and tasty. My husband ordered the halibut and the tiny serving size that rang in over 30$, left him coming home hungry. Good aspects-the parking. Park in the connecting hotel and receive free validation through the restaurant. The proximity to the theatre district-we walked two blocks away to enjoy our play that evening. think I'll return to Cafe du Parc in the spring when you can enjoy the outside tables and have a light lunch or coffee. I doubt we'll do dinner again."
Dined on 2/21/2014
The duck with multi vegetables was
very good but the sauce was intrusive. I would have like a small salad but the only salads were $15. I would have liked a fruity dessert but all but one of the choices were chocolate which were too rich after a rich entree. The chocolate desserts were for the Valentine's day weekend, but I would have preferred variety. It is a great service to be able to leave your car while you attend the theater, several which are close by."
Dined on 2/15/2014
Went here for Valentine's Day, got
a private booth just like I requested. It was very quiet and the restaurant had a great ambience. It was very romantically lit. The waiters were very on top of everything while still leaving us alone to enjoy each others company. Only wish it was warmer so I could have sat outside and enjoyed the view."
Dined on 2/14/2014
Celebrated Valentine's Day with my
girlfriend and enjoyed the food. The pre-fixed menu was enjoyable but not exceptional. My preference would be the ability to order off the full menu. I was happy to see that the ambience was much more romantic than pictures on the website display. The staff was very good with the correct balance of attentiveness and time away so that couples could enjoy their dinners and conversation."
Dined on 2/14/2014
Although we ate from a pre-set
menu, the selections were interesting and delicious. The ingredients for our salad and quail appetizers were obviously fresh, and the fois gras brulee and cauliflower mousse were a nice surprise. The entrees were nicely portioned and flavorful. We appreciated the nice dessert presentations as plated, and the kalamansi panna cotta was light and tasty. Our issue was that we had to wait a bit before our waiter came by the table to take our order or even give us water or bread, despite the fact the restaurant was far from full. Still, the staff overall was very friendly and the meal quality made our overall dining experience enjoyable. We would come again to try the regular menu."
Dined on 2/14/2014
I had a very nice dining
experience and would definitely recommend it. The mussels were wonderful!"
Dined on 2/10/2014
This is a beautiful restaurant,
offering wonderful food and service. The setting is beautiful and elegant...all which makes for an outstanding and overall dining experience and a memorable evening."
Dined on 2/4/2014
I picked Café du Parc because of
its location. As a rule, I avoid restaurants in hotels, but this is The Willard. We were not disappointed. This was a birthday celebration. Staff reserved a table in a quiet corner and placed a birthday card from the staff on the table. Our waiter, Salvador, was exceptional. Attentive but not hovering. The food was exquisite. The "Filet Mignon de Porc" melted on the tongue. Complimentary champagne completed the night. A wonderful experience. The dining room is understated but pleasant. Too bad the windows are not large enough to view Freedom Plaza across the street -- not possible as The Willard is an historic building. Still, making our own history within this piece of American heritage was wonderful."
Dined on 2/8/2014
My steak and frites was overcooked
but for me the problem is that the menu is just way too expensive for what you get. Very nice people, though."
Dined on 2/5/2014
Since it was DC Restaurant Week,
we didn't expect much from the limited menu. However, the service was excellent, the food delicious and plentiful. Two minor issues: It was very cold outside so the meager one coatrack for all their diners was overflowing with coats. We kept ours at our seats. No other option was offered. Also, my seat on the bench by the window was located under air flowing from the ceiling onto my neck, so I changed seats with my husband. Overall, it was a great dining experience, and I would recommend it to others."
Dined on 1/18/2014
Visited for Restaurant Week: the
prix fixe menu was diverse, the food impeccably presented and cooked, with delicately seasoned taste. Very French, very pretty, and remarkably (let's hope not sadly) uncrowded. Why is hotel dining looked down on?"
Dined on 1/16/2014
Yambi was my server but I only
knew that from her name tag. She didn't introduce herself, welcome us or go over the menu. She asked what we wanted to drink and perhaps since we didn't order alcohol she didn't feel the need to "serve" us. My guest was experiencing French cuisine for the first time and she had several questions. Yambi would answer one question then walk away; leaving us to flag her down to keep asking questions because once she answered a question she would instantly walk away. We had to ask to have our ginger ales and water glasses refilled. We ordered a side of steak frites and she gave us a bottle of ketchup with the plastic still on the bottle. She didn't check in on us. The food was amazing but not worth the service."
Dined on 1/17/2014
We had reservations elsewhere but
were faced with an awful, scant pre fixe menu upon arrival and had to find another option for the night for 3 of us. Café Du Parc had an opening, so we took it. The food was very very good. My filet was a bit tasteless, but the pork tenderloin and scallops of my companions were great. The haricot verts were very good. The onion soup was delicious (very large portion) and happily, they had chocolate soufflé which was incredible. Served with pistachio ice cream. Heaven. Service was friendly, but servers did tend to stand around talking to each other, when we needed attention. Made one of our party late for another engagement because we were constantly trying to get the server's attention."

Our lunch New Year's day was the
perfect start to a new year. We felt cosseted, relaxed and nurtured by sophisticated food delivered in a beautiful and serene environment. We wouldn't have changed a thing."

If you are a fan of fine steak,
this is the place you want to go"
Dined on 12/31/2013
The food was fair, nothing
special. Tables were very tight. Restaurant staff was constantly knocking into my table and me. Twice my foot was steeped on. This was the second time that I had visited the restaurant. Also, the last."
Dined on 12/31/2013
This beautiful little french gem
is located in a gorgeous historic hotel. The resturant looks exactly like something you would imagine seeing in Paris. Lovely clean, bright. The service was very good, nothing to complain about. The menu was fantastic and diverse, though I was disappointed to see a lack of escargot (not soul crushed as other appetizers we fantastic). I would love to take someone there for a romantic evening or meet friends for lunch. Overall very enjoyable."
Dined on 12/31/2013
Everything was fine, but little
really stood out. The beef Wellington was far and away the best dish of the night and we are not big beef eaters. The lobster bisque was salty, the crab cakes were tasty, but would have been so much better with more lump crab meat along with the back fin. The Bouche Noel was dried out. For a $75 prixe fixe, we expected more."
Dined on 12/25/2013
We had a pre theater dinner on
Christmas day and the service was perfect, the ambiance lively and the food very good. The only thing I'd change is portion size - servings were far too large."
Dined on 12/25/2013
Truly a special evening. All was
great except the good was good not great. I think I expected more with regards to the excellent reviews about the good."
Dined on 12/24/2013
I made this reservation way in
advance,and we were staying in the hotel (Willard)...but for some reason we were seated close to the kitchen double doors, in an almost empty restaurant...however, after requesting to be moved, they obliged, (after the second request). We did not let this deter us from having what turned out to be a very nice meal. My wife had the scallops which were cooked superbly and I had the duck which was also cooked to perfection. The wait staff at the Cafe du Parc is really great, they know how to make a meal special. Bon Appetite!"
Dined on 12/21/2013
An excellent location for a
Christmastime evening. After a performance at the Willard, we entered Café du Parc from the lobby and enjoyed excellent service and food. The mussels are not to be missed -- and easily can be shared. The gnocchi first course is incredible -- and also a generous portion. The waiter and kitchen are willing to make substitutions. Wine was good and there is a wide variety of price and type. All in all an excellent place for an evening out."

Traumatic Memory Discourses in Israel: Holocaust History, Territory and Self-Critique
A lecture by Joseph Rosen, Department of History and Centre for Ethnographic Research and Exhibition in the Aftermath of Violence, Concordia University, Montreal
Published: Friday, January 28, 2011
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict, while often seen as a battle over territory, is simultaneously a struggle over history and contested memories. In this context I investigate the political functions of traumatic memory discourses in Israel. I begin by analyzing a series of events in 2004-2005 when Israeli settlers wore Holocaust-era armbands in order to create a media spectacle and protest the government-ordered withdrawal of certain settlements from the Occupied Territories. I situate these events in the larger context of the historical development of Holocaust awareness in Israel in order to argue that the territorialization of Holocaust memory is not simply a cynical political rhetoric, but must be viewed as a traumatic form of memory discourse that reproduces historical violence. In the second half of my talk I analyze oppositional mobilizations of traumatic memory: in the testimonial practices of Israeli army veterans and 'refuseniks' who publicize their own memories of violence—as soldiers and perpetrators—in order to contest the actions and presence of the state of Israel in the Occupied Territories. Here I show how traumatic memory discourses are constructed in order to enable an ethical form of self-critique. The goal of my analysis is to highlight both the political dilemmas and ethical possibilities of traumatic memory discourses and to argue that any attempt to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian territorial conflict requires addressing the traumatic dimensions of memory discourses.
Joseph Rosen is a postdoctoral fellow in Montreal at Concordia University's Department of History & Centre for Ethnographic Research and Exhibition in the Aftermath of Violence. His work investigates the cultural production of memories of violence in relation to contemporary sites of suffering and oppression. Rosen's dissertation developed an ethical theory of working-through traumatic memory discourses and addressed mobilizations of Holocaust memory in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He has published articles addressing: the ethics of memory in Emmanuel Levinas; the ethics of suffering in Jean Améry; counter-monuments and non-memorials in Berlin; and Holocaust comedy. He has also performed and published Jewish-Palestinian dialogues (with Hanadi Loubani) that address questions of memory and Diaspora in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Ongoing research investigates the relation between cultural memory, identity and resistance in the Israel, and develops curatorial strategies for creating public dialogues about the relations between historical trauma and present injustice.

Homeopathy - Attention Deficit Disorder Treatment
Attention deficit disorder seems to be one of the conditions that seem to be affecting our children a lot these days. The reasons behind this have yet not been established unequivocally but experts say that it could b due to pollution, inadequate nutrition, allergies or genetic predisposition.
An even more alarming fact is that parents and medical practitioners are too eager to medicate and feel that the problem will just go away. In fact it is known that allopathic treatments only reduce or cure symptoms and not the core issue. This means that irrespective of the ADD treatment that one is being administered the same or similar symptoms are bound to reoccur. Moreover, allopathic medication is known to have abundant side effects and these side effects are numerous when it comes to the stimulants and other medications that are generally prescribed for child ADHD treatment. Peter R. Breggin, M.D. Director, International Center for the Study of Psychiatry and Psychology says "The drugging of children has gotten so out of hand that America is waking up to this. This is a national catastrophe. I'm seeing children who are normal who are on five psychiatric drugs".
Due to some of these statements and the side effects that parents can see in their children there is a movement towards evaluating and trying out alternate treatments for all conditions including attention deficit disorder. While some people opt for an herbal remedy for ADD, there are others that look for a solution in homeopathy.
Specifically speaking, homeopathy is fast increasing in popularity and for once the traditionalists are also accepting the successes that the stream of medicine is achieving. The homeopathic practitioners have also woken up and are conducting many clinical trials to prove the efficacy of their medication and approach.
When a case of ADD is referred to a homeopath, he does not only treat the condition but the individual who had the problem. He tries to bring the individual to a balanced state by studying the pattern of symptoms of the person. Though there are many medicines in homeopathy that can be used to treat ADD there is only that will match the unique set of symptoms for a particular person.
The approach that homeopathy takes is a holistic one in which various other behaviors and preferences are also taken into account. The doctor will study multiple aspects like whether the patient prefers cold beverages or hot, the kind of dreams he has, various fears and phobias and also whether there has been a history of any specific health condition that may or may not be linked to ADD.
That is why there are various medicines that can actually be used for ADD and the right one can only be decided by the homeopathy practitioner after studying the specific characteristics and symptoms of the individual. Homeopaths may prescribe Adrenocorticotropin Hormone as an anti allergy, L Dopa Phenolic for chronic anxiety and depression, Gamma Aminobutyric Acid Phenolic to reduce bouts of anger and hostility or Calcarea Carbonica for apprehensions and worries.

Product Description
2 Reales coin from the El Cazador Shipwreck!
Found on August 2, 1993, 50 miles off the shore of Louisiana, a humble fishing trawler, named THE MISTAKE, snagged some debris on the ocean floor, only to discover coins among the objects caught in its net. At a depth of 300 feet, the crew had discovered the final resting place of the long lost Spanish Brig, El Cazador, and its treasure of Spanish silver coins. How did these coins change the world? In 1783, The American Revolutionary War was won against the British with the help of similar coins. Spain provided cash in the form of these very same silver coins to the American patriots to support the war effort. January 11, 1784, El Cazador, "The Hunter," a Spanish Brig of War, set sail from Vera Cruz, Mexico for the port of New Orleans. Along with its load of silver coins, the ship and crew disappeared without a trace.

denon 3313ci
Pros: its size and the features that its supposed to have...
Cons: the most unreliable "TURD" i've ever owned in the A/V world
go on any website and read the reviews of this Denon unit and everywhere you go you hear the same thing - "NEW UNPERFECTED TECHNOLOGY". I don't know if its just a DENON issue, or if all the new A/V NETWORK RECEIVERS are having the same issues. the HDMI switching absolutely sucks!!!
to be fair to DENON I have to admit that i'm probably not the average consumer as I am in fact maxing out the use of this little receiver. I'm doing a lot more than just hooking up some speakers, a blue ray player, and a tv to this receiver. this receiver was designed to do a lot more than that and i'm challenging this unit and DENON to deliver on its word. My DENON 3313ci is the center of my entire house. I have the following setup...
(main zone - garage)
KLIPSCH 5800 wall (2) and ceiling (2) speakers for front and rear channels
KLIPSCH RC 52 center channel speaker
KLIPSCH RW 10 subwoofer
(zone 2 - back yard patio)
KLIPSCH AW 650 outdoor speakers(
(zone 3 - nothing built yet, but planning zone 3 audio only in the front yard)
home network internet connection - hardwired CAT 6A gigabit service
play station 3 hardwired internet cat 6
computer work station hardwired cat 6
if familiar with my equipment the reader of this review will know that I had to work out a lot of issues to get all of this to actually work together which it does. everything works perfect except the receiver. the receiver it seems gets confused too often. just this morning I was ready to unplug it and take it in for repairs because last night it wouldn't work at all. given the vast amount of connectivity involved I decided to try again to trouble shoot the problem and was actually successful. if you download the owner's manual you can find at the very end of the manual under "trouble shooting" where you can reset the micro processor and start over from the receiver's default settings. from here I was able to get it to work again. I had lost the front display screen and couldn't get it to send a signal to the tv. NOTHING! after resetting the microprocessor I had to recalibrate the speakers and then program the sources and update the firmware again. now it works like a champ. so like a computer I guess this thing you have to reset ever so often. seems like a lot of work for something that should just work on its own. its almost as if the owner of this device needs to be a technician or something. how the average consumer will be able to navigate something like this is beyond me. this NETWORK receiver is not for the beginner level A/V enthusiast. it has too many issues and way too many quirks.
my biggest grievance with this receiver is that it has problems that occur too often. given the complexity of my entire system its sometimes hard to know if its my wiring, a source device, a power cable, my internet service.... with all that I have going on problems can be very difficult to troubleshoot. one would hope that the receiver itself is not the weak link in the chain and yet most of the time it is in fact the receiver. the problem I believe is with the HDMI switching. after doing hours of research trying to figure out what the story is with HDMI issues I found that its all the encryption junk that's built into it now. the equipment just can't keep up with it I guess. i'm speculating, but I think that's the problem. this technology is not perfected yet and the typical consumer isn't going to have the patience to work through all the issues. this DENON unit, while impressive in its capabilities, is not a unit I would recommend to anyone unless they are really into tinkering with things. you almost have to be a tech to own one of these things.
I have built an amazing home theater and zone 2 system. something i'm hopeful to sell to others as far as building sytems similar to what I have for other people. this receiver I would not install in someone's house, because I already know the customer will be calling me back every other day because there's an issue. that's how unreliable this thing is. when it works its awesome, but you never know when its going to mess up and start having problems. you want so much to believe that its a wire or a connection somewhere, but no - its something wrong inside the actual receiver which is the brain of the whole system. too unreliable to sell to a customer from an installer point of view.
one big thorn in my side about the limitations of the 3313CI is the fact that it won't send and audio signal out the zone 2 preouts from a digital source (HDMI or TOSLINK OPTICAL). to use the zone 2 preouts you have to have an analog source. I've read a lot of complaints about this from other forums and I did find a solution. HDMI AUDIO EXTRACTOR is the device you need. I'm using this for my PS3. HDMI A/V passes through it and also extracts 2.0 analog audio. so the connectivity going to the receiver is actually both HDMI and RCA STEREO. the RCA STEREO connection is for the zone 2 system. I have a similar setup with my computer work station. HDMI for A/V coming from my computer for the main zone and then for audio i'm also pushing a stereo 1/8 connection to a toslink conversion that's running the long distance to the audio rack of the receiver and then converting from TOSLINK OPTICAL to RCA STEREO for my zone 2 audio. believe it or not this all actually works and it works well. its the only way to get the receiver to do what I want it to do. sometimes the receiver automatically chooses the correct audio signal and sometimes I have to manually switch it from the setting menu on the tv. its still something i'm toying with.
another issue I had problems with was that of getting the projectors to work. this is not a DENON issue since the HDMI outputs on the denon unit are designed to send an HDMI signal to an HDMI display device. my projectors are analog projectors. to get them to work I had to intercept the HDMI signal going to the projectors and use HDMI TO COMPONENT VIDEO CONVERTERS. this solved the problem and the projectors work great. still, there are times when the HDMI switching has issues and a lot of the issues i'm still trying to figure out. the ZONE 2 system doesn't always want to work independent of the main zone like its supposed to. often times it seems the zone 2 system won't work unless the main zone is using the same source which is not supposed to happen.
all of my equipment is HDCP compliant so I don't know what the problem is. my cabling is all very high quality. CABLE SOLUTIONS is the maker of most of my cabling. I've done some extensive work on my system and like I said this has become a real hobby. this DENON 3313CI NETWORK RECEIVER is not for the faint of heart. you will pull some hair out trying to make sense of it and possibly even invest in a good sledgehammer after a while. I will say this much. the sound quality of my entire system is absolutely amazing and i'll challenge anyone to test it. the denon receiver is responsible for part of that. the cabling, speaker quality, and installation method certainly played a role too.
I don't have money for a new unit since I just got this 3313 a few months ago. I do plan to upgrade within the next 2 years if I can get this thing to last that long. hopefully the technology will be a little more perfected by that time. next time i'm going YAMAHA. never had problems with a Yamaha before.

By Gary Hawkins email@example.com
Staff Writer
A few thoughts while making my list and checking it twice.
• The discussion of the nominees for this year's Fitzpatrick Trophy had run its course and I was more than willing to let it go until committee chairman Jack Dawson spoke this week in an interview with WCSH-TV sportscaster Lee Goldberg.
Dawson was questioned about the award's criteria, validity, possible provincialism and the makeup of the selection committee. Dawson said the award is based on 40 percent grades, 40 percent football ability and 20 percent character. The cover letter sent to coaches this year, and presumably in the past, states otherwise. The criteria is listed as 70 percent football ability, 30 percent grades and 10 percent character.
When the apparent snub of Mt. Blue quarterback Jordan Whitney was raised, Dawson intimated his grades weren't good enough to make the list of 12 finalists. Dawson said there were a couple of players who didn't make the list -- there were only two and Whitney was one of them -- who were great football players "but the transcripts would be conspicuous in comparison to the other candidates."
Sorry, Mr. Dawson, but suggesting a particular high school kid didn't make the list because of poor grades is way out of bounds. For the record, Whitney has made high honors and honors at Mt. Blue in the past and his overall grade point average is 82, according to his coach Gary Parlin.
Dawson also said "the first eliminator is the transcript of grades." Then why does it only count 30 percent? Sounds to me like you and the committee are just covering your butts after making a mistake. I know you're better than that.
• When the 12 semifinalists for the Fitzpatrick Award were announced, Dawson trumpeted the fact that three linemen were nominated. I wish them well but only one lineman, Lewiston's Jerry Raymond in 1978, has won in the 42 year history of the award. That's why the Frank J. Graziano Award was established a couple of years ago in Maine, to honor the top offensive and defensive linemen in the state. Maybe establishing one's own award is what it takes to avoid getting snubbed.
• Look, Bob Costas can be a little grating at times. He talks too much and comes off as the smartest man in the room. But I've got a problem with those who objected to his editorial comments about the Jovan Belcher murder/suicide at halftime of Sunday night's NFL game.
I won't debate the merits of his arguments for gun control, just his ability to state them. Nearly every single opinion I've read or person I've spoken with has been on the other side of the argument. Yet all of them swear this wasn't the right forum. Wonder what they would have said if Costas had come out in favor of their side.
Let's face it, Costas isn't an idiot for speaking out, he's an idiot for not agreeing with you.
• The Jovan Belcher incident presents a good opportunity for the NFL to address its domestic violence problem, not only for the good of the league and its players and potential victims but to set a proper example. Right now the example is very negative.
• I would love to be watching NHL hockey right now, but I can live without it. These folks are shooting themselves in the skates. Wake me when the lockout is over.
• If the Celtics need an enforcer, they should go out and get one, if for no other reason than to keep Rajon Rondo on the floor and off the suspended list.
• I like a lot of the moves the Red Sox have made so far, the best being John Farrell as manager and Mike Napoli at first base. But none of them -- Jonny Gomes, Shane Victorino, David Ross -- have brought me out of my chair. Are we headed for another bridge year? So far it looks that way. Still waiting for that big deal, that pitcher(s) that will put them back into contention.

Sexy Latin bottom, Ray Diaz, and Connor Maguire are making out, making sexual mischief. Ray plays hide and seek with it; 'It' being Connor's cock, which is too big and hard not to spot. Ray sucks it, running his hands through the hair on Connor's chest. Ray's hairy hole makes Connor harder, and the need to taste it wins out over the need to let Ray keep sucking him. Connor gives oral attention to Ray's balls, too, before sidling up to him from behind, ready to fuck. Ray emits a spontaneous, jaw-dropping gasp when Connor slides it into him. By the time Ray flips onto his back they have attracted an audience. Ryan Rose, dressed in a towel and visibly eager for action, is watching and waiting around the corner. Ryan gets a step closer to being invited to join them when he drops the towel, showing a hard cock ready to rock and roll. Connor gives him the nod. Ray looks spectacular with a cock in his ass, and he welcomes having a cock in his mouth at the same time. Ryan provides the meat in his mouth while Connor continues plowing Ray's ass. As they approach climax, Ryan invites everyone to cum on him, kneeling on the floor so that Ray and Connor can direct their loads onto his neck, chest and handsome face.

Let's be honest: Student life is really what you make it. Active organizations, competitive sports, and compelling events don't mean anything if you don't take advantage of them. So, we have all of those things, but it's up to you to find and enjoy those that fit you.
If you're the type of person who likes to be involved, Indiana Tech is the place for you. We have a wide variety of student clubs and organizations including student chapters of professional organizations, fraternities, and clubs built around common interests or hobbies. Join the one (or two or three) that interests you or start your own.
Whether you're an athlete or a spectator, there's really nothing like college sports. We have 19 varsity teams, and a popular intramural program as well.
The Wellness Center is working with Student Health 101, an interactive health resource magazine. You can check out the magazine here.
Our classes are great, but you probably want to do more than just go to class while you're in college. That's why we schedule a variety of events throughout the year. Some are intended to expand your mind, some are just meant to be fun.
For the 2013-14 academic year, Indiana Tech will offer a Student Health Insurance Plan. The changes are in response to the new federal mandate for student health insurance by the Department of Health and Human Services addressing the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). The Indiana Tech 2013-14 Student Health Insurance Plan is compliant with the new federal regulations.

The International Journal for Research in Inorganic Chemistry.
Polyhedron publishes original, fundamental, experimental and theoretical work of the highest quality in all the major areas of inorganic chemistry. This includes synthetic chemistry, coordination chemistry, organometallic chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, and solid-state and materials chemistry. Papers should be significant pieces of work, and all new compounds must be appropriately characterized. The inclusion of single-crystal X-ray structural data is strongly encouraged, but papers reporting only the X-ray structure determination of a single compound will usually not be considered. Papers on solid-state or materials chemistry will be expected to have a significant molecular chemistry component, such as the synthesis and characterization of the molecular precursors and/or a systematic study of the use of different precursors or reaction conditions.Polyhedron publishes full papers, specially commissioned review articles (Polyhedron Reports) and themed issues of the journal (Polyhedron Symposia-in-Print). Polyhedron does not publish communications or notes.

I have to admit I was a little intimidated by Michelle Obama when I first saw her. She was standing on the far side of a hotel conference room, and I got the impression of a regal woman who has a model's height (she's 5'11") and a classic, understated chic. But then she came forward, extended an endless arm and broke out her famous million-watt smile. She gave me a big hug—as if we were old girlfriends—and I felt as though I'd known her forever. I guess part of my comfort came from the similarities in our lives. Michelle and I are both lawyers; we both have two children (I have a daughter, Satchel, 12, and a son, Jackson, 10; her girls are Malia, 9, and Sasha, 6); and we're both married to very public men. My husband is director Spike Lee; hers is Barack Obama, the third black United States senator since Reconstruction and our would-be next president.
First I saw Michelle's friendliness, then I saw her focus. This was business; she had a job to do and a message to get across. She answered each question with enthusiasm, leaning in to me and gesturing with her expressive hands.
Being First Lady was probably not on her mind in 1988, when she met Barack. A product of Chicago's South Side (her father was a city pump operator, and her mother a secretary) and a graduate of Princeton University and Harvard Law School, she was an attorney at the Sidley Austin firm in Chicago when she was assigned to mentor a new summer intern, Barack. Four years later they married. Now, while her husband runs for the presidency, Michelle, 43, does the lion's share of raising their girls and works as vice president of community and external affairs for the University of Chicago Hospitals. She's on the road several days a week for the Obama campaign, shaking hands, charming the media, making speeches…and history.
TONYA LEWIS LEE: People seem to think that you are the secret weapon of your husband's campaign.
MICHELLE OBAMA: I feel so much passion for this candidacy. When we made the decision to get in this race, there was a side of me that said, "Oh, no. This is going to be so personally disruptive—why put yourself through that?" But then I let myself dream about what his presidency would mean [to the nation and the world] and I get goose bumps.
TLL: You once said, "Politics is a waste of time."
MO: That statement reflects my cynicism about politics, not about Barack. My thought has always been that he has something special to offer the political process, which can be a mean-spirited game. Over the years I've become more confident in people's ability to recognize a good thing.

Downloadable content loses steam on consoles
Gamasutra has posted an article on a startling trend when it comes to downloadable content for the the Wii, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Apparently, the gush of DLC titles is slowing down. It's definitely not a trickle, but there is a noticeable drop in downloadable content.
Comparing the second half of 2007 to the first half of this year, there isn't as much original content out there, according to Gamaustra's Matt Matthews. It seems that Sony is relying on PlayStation Portable titles at its PlayStation Store to fill out its release schedule. Meanwhile, Microsoft is doing the same with Xbox Originals. Meanwhile, the Wii Virtual Console offerings have been going down, but it seems as if WiiWare will possibly help Nintendo buck this trend.
It's a great analysis and definitely worth the read if you're into downloadable content and hard drives …

Tried various combinations of view & mode. I think I am going to set it on topic/linear and just go with it for a few days. It's different not seeing the subject line of every post in a thread right away, but I don't necessarily think it's better or worse yet, just different. I figure that's the vBulletin default format for a reason, and it might "grow on me" as they say.
I like the hybrid mode within a thread, but I ran into a weird thing with that. I'm a Mac laptop user (Safari browser) and Safari plays fine with the new board, but navigating with the trackpad is funky in hybrid view. You scroll up & down with the two-fingers move and once you get to the edge of the window that shows the whole thread, the entire page starts to move and that disrupts my smooth, easygoing message board reading experience. Mac people will know what I mean.
New train of thought: as for traffic & subscriptions being down, what I think TSL is running into here is a "perfect storm" of several factors: football season ending with 2 losses, basketball having a down year, the economy forcing people to try & save money wherever they can, more people using social media to follow sports, and on top of that the format change. In my line of work I deal with a lot of small businesses and I see plenty of them trying to cope with necessary changes in the current/post-recession economy and it ain't pretty sometimes. There was just a big street reconstruction project in my market that almost killed a couple of restaurants & retailers. It had to be done as the infrastructure under the street (water/sewer) was ancient & falling apart, and there was plenty of advance warning, but most of the businesses affected said they didn't anticipate how dramatic the effect would be. People just avoided the whole area, so things like making sure your parking was accessible turned out to be little help. A couple of my retail clients have moved recently too, and no matter how much you publicize your move there are going to be folks who have no idea & think you've closed, or don't want to go to the new location for whatever reason, etc. Most of my people are happy with their move, but they all said it got worse before it got better. But it did get better. Maybe some of that makes sense. Sometimes you must tear down in order to rebuild. You might run off some of your casual customers, but your core base stays, and if you have a consistently good product you pick up new people and eventually the casual customers return.

The IPCC was established by the World Meteorological Organization
(WMO) and the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) in 1988. Its role is to
provide comprehensive, objective, open, and transparent scientific and technical assessments of knowledge related to climate change, its potential
impacts, and options for adaptation and mitigation.
The United States participates in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, an intergovernmental body
that oversees the development of assessments of the state of knowledge of climate change. The role of the
IPCC is to assess on a comprehensive, objective, open and transparent basis, the scientific, technical, and
socioeconomic information relevant to understanding the scientific basis of risk of human-induced climate
change, its potential impacts, and options for adaptation and mitigation.
IPCC assessments are commissioned by member governments and produced by scientists and technical experts.
The reports undergo expert and government review and are accepted by IPCC member governments prior to their release.
Every six to seven years, the IPCC produces a comprehensive three-volume assessment of the state of knowledge
of climate change. Volumes in this comprehensive assessment cover climate change science; impacts, vulnerability
and adaptation; and mitigation. The
4th Assessment Report,
the most recent, was finalized in 2008; the next comprehensive assessment will be released in 2014.
In addition to this comprehensive assessment, the IPCC periodically produces "special reports" that address specific topics on climate change.

The big news that former PayPal head Scott Thompson is leaving the payments company to become the CEO of Yahoo could have ramifications well beyond search engine marketing and online advertising.
PayPal has grown from its humble roots as a mere facilitator of eBay transactions to become a giant in the payments space. Last year, PayPal announced several new payments initiatives, including ramping up its presence in the P2P and mobile space.
[Click here for more on PayPal's involvement in the digital payments space.]
Already, some are speculating whether this moves means Yahoo will look to step up its payment activities. It remains to be seen whether Thompson will seek to position Yahoo to eat into PayPal's marketshare in the online payments space. Remember, Yahoo did try its hand at the payments game once before, with its now defunct PayDirect P2P money transfer service.
This bears watching for banks, as Yahoo could become another player in payments.

Amazing hair color! – I recently decided to cut off my shoulder length hair and add some highlights. Martha does a terrific job of finding the right cut to emphasize your best features and to allow for ease of maintenance and styling. Randy is an absolute master at blending color and highlights. He found a great shade to match my skin tone and highlight the new cut. He listened, made suggestions and showed photos to explain what he was going to do. I received compliments for weeks. Such natural talent in Tampa Bay!

Austin >Food & Dining > Garrido's
360 Nueces St, Austin, TX | Directions 7870130.267650 -97.749208
Mon-Thu 11am-10pm; Fri-Sat: 11am-11pm; Sun 10am-11pm
Happy Hour Monday - Fri. 4pm to 7pm, Sat. & Sun.10am to 7pm
Neighborhoods: Downtown
One of the best patios in town, just across the street from Austin Music Hall.
Delish Upscale Mexican – I eat at Garrido's almost weekly. Sunday brunch is my favorite- $2.00 mimosas and $2.00 off appetizers? Yes, please. Service is always great there. One Sunday in particular, was just perfection. I'm sensitive to spicy food, and our waiter brought out a sampling of all the salsas/sauces they use, so that I could try them. Their habanero aioli is wonderful- more flavorful than spicy. I'm not limited to the lamb sausage omelette anymore! (which, btw, is amazing). We had a party of 7, plus a dog, and the staff brought out extra tables, chairs, and umbrellas so we'd all be comfortable. Really nice folks.
New Downtown Food Find – I went to Garrido's on Friday night with a group of friends to celebrate my birthday. We sat indoors - although the outdoor patio area looked beautiful so I can't wait to go back and eat outside. The restaurant had a good energy and buzz. Lots of 20 & 30somethings out for date night and large groups like ours. I would describe the food and atmosphere as upscale, trendy Mexican/Latin cuisine. While they charge you for chips and salsa, the chips were delicious - not those flimsy ones that taste out of a bag. Plus, they serve warm salsa which I love. I split the shrimp tacos with mango salsa and was very happy with my choice. What really sealed the deal for me were the frozen margaritas. Garrido's were perfect - not too limey, not too sweet, and just the right amount of tequila. Two thumbs way up!
Thank you so much for the wondeful review! We are so glad you had a memorable time here! We look forward to seeing you again and yes, the patio is a must!
-Nicole Maddocks, Manager
The very best food with good service!!! – Chef Garrido has done it again! This jewel has superior food that is reasonably priced--think I'll go tonight!!
Citysearch Editorial Review – One may recall what Chef David Garrido had done for sophisticated tastebuds at award-winning Jeffrey's. Now neatly tucked away where the base of the 360 condos meets the cul-de-sac of the Austin Music Hall is his latest culinary endeavor and namesake, Garrido's. Blending the definitive lines between unpretentious casual dining and Downtown chic cuisine, this stylized Mexican- restaurant offers up many opportunities to experience flavors that Garrido saw fit and necessary for his dishes, yet are unexpected but greatly appreciated by patrons. The elongated outdoor dining porch overlooking Shoal Creek complements pleasant weather tremendously, so opt for al fresco whenever possible. Crack open the menu to find a divine arrangement of familiar foods with added twists, such as gulf crab guacamole, lamb pops with plantain chips, coffee-marinated rib-eye steak, and oyster tostadas served on yucca root chips. And as if that wasn't enough to ensure repeated visits, Garrido's offers irresistible happy hour and brunch specials that are worth the hassle of finding parking in the area,

Daily Joke
There were two evil brothers. They were rich and used their money to keep their ways from the public eye. They even attended the same church and looked to be perfect Christians.
Then, their pastor retired and a new one was hired. Not only could he see right through the brothers' deception, but he also spoke well and true, and the church started to swell in numbers.
A fundraising campaign was started to build a new assembly.
All of a sudden, one of the brothers died. The remaining brother sought out the new pastor the day before the funeral and handed him a check for the amount needed to finish paying for the new building.
"I have only one condition," he said. "At his funeral, you must say my brother was a saint."
The pastor gave his word and deposited the check.
The next day at the funeral, the pastor did not hold back. "He was an evil man," he said. "He cheated on his wife and abused his family." After going on in this vein for a small time, he concluded with, "But, compared to his brother, he was a saint."

Beretta DL Tactical Holster LIII for 92 Series Full Size (Thigh Rig module)
Particular attention has been given to the safety systems and to the choice of first quality materials to warrant a long-lasting product and the highest reliability with the utmost comfort.
Modularity (Patented)
The fixing of the holster group to different modules allows the operator to have always the same pistol's hold and the same safety systems with very limited costs.
The fixing system of the body holster to different modules is also very practical and sure.
I am totally satisfied with my Beretta DL Tactical Holster. It fits my 96 .40 cal. perfectly and is extremely rugged and well made. The gun is held securely until the release lever is pushed. I am a big man (315#) so I was afraid it might not fit my fat legs. But the thigh straps allowed planty of room. Having the option of thigh or belt carry is a nice feature. If you are looking for a "This Dude means business" holster, this is it!

A-League move up in the air for Becks
David Beckham's reported move to the A-League remains very much up in the air after several clubs distanced themselves from the former England skipper.
By ESPNSTAR.com staff
It had earlier been reported that moves were underway to bring the Manchester United icon to play in the A-League for a 10-game stint.
The 37-year-old's contract with Major League Soccer (MLS) club LA Galaxy ends next month.
Beckham joined the Galaxy in 2007 for a reported fee of US$6.5 million per season and continues to be a key player for the MLS champions, who lead the Seattle Sounders 3-1 heading into Western Conference final second leg on Monday.
It is thought that any deal for Beckham to play in the A-League would require the financial backing from the Football Federation Australia - reports have also suggested Beckham would be open to taking a pay cut to help make it happen.
If Beckham were to swap America for Australia, he would be the biggest name to ply his trade in the A-League following Italy legend Alessandro Del Piero's arrival earlier in the season.
Beckham's representatives, meanwhile, insist the Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder has "absolutely no plans to play in Australia" despite an insistence from Down Under that the former England captain has been in preliminary talks with A-League clubs.
Beckham signed a new two-year contract with the Galaxy in January but has previously had two loan spells with AC Milan in Major League Soccer off-seasons.
And Football Federation Australia (FFA) released a statement early on Friday morning in which it said it had been approached by the Beckham camp with a view to the player spending a short stint in the A-League.
A Beckham spokesman was quick to refute the claim, however, describing it as "rubbish" before adding in a statement: ""There is always enormous interest from clubs across the world in signing David as a player.
"There are absolutely no plans to play in Australia, David is completely focused on the MLS play offs and winning another Championship with the Galaxy."
That stance contradicts the signals emanating from Australia.
The FFA statement read: "The approach from David Beckham's people is another sign of how much the Hyundai A-League has grown in stature on a global basis.
"Beckham is a superstar on the world stage and he would be another massive signing for the Hyundai A-League after the arrivals of Alessandro Del Piero, Emile Heskey and Shinji Ono.
"But this approach remains at a very preliminary stage."
FFA chief executive David Gallop also told reporters in Australia: "It's wonderful that David Beckham is thinking about the A-League as a potential destination.
"Beckham is a superstar on the world stage and Australian audiences have loved his visits here with the LA Galaxy.
"He would be another massive signing for the A-League after the arrivals of Alessandro Del Piero, Emile Heskey and Shinji Ono.
"There are many hoops to jump through and I must stress this approach remains at a very preliminary stage."
Perth Glory have already stated an interest in Beckham and Lyall Gormal, executive chairman of new A-League franchise Western Sydney Wanderers, said the former Manchester United and Real Madrid would have obvious commercial appeal.
He told Sky Sports News: "We haven't had formal or informal contact over this, but clearly we are aware of the iconic vale of David Beckham.
"Beckham is outstanding. We've seen him here before on a couple of occasions. There was an 80,000 sell-out at the Olympic Stadium and he was here with the Galaxy the year before last for a game against the Newcastle Jets.
"He would be a fantastic commodity to bring to Australia."
On the contradictory statements from the FFA and the Beckham camp, Gormal added: "It is puzzling isn't it?
"My understanding is there have been informal approaches to other clubs. One or two have already come out and talked about their interest.
"Clearly there has been some informal discussions so it is a bit puzzling."
Galaxy meet the Seattle Sounders in the second leg of their Western Conference Championship play-off this weekend.
The Galaxy hold a 3-0 advantage after Republic of Ireland striker Robbie Keane scored twice in the first leg.
Should Beckham make the move he would join the likes of former Juventus and Italy star Del Piero and Heskey, who joined the A-League in the summer.
Any move for Beckham would need to be part-funded by the FFA with the A-League clubs, who work under a salary cap, unlikely to be able to afford his demands.
Most of the Australian clubs have also already secured their marquee player - whose wages are not registered under the salary cap - for the new season, which began early last month.
The Glory, last season's beaten grand finalists, are yet to fill that position, however, and their chief executive Paul Kelly immediately indicated they would be keen should Beckham be available.
"We are always happy to speak to players of the calibre of David Beckham, who would be great for the Hyundai A-League as illustrated by the effect of Alessandro Del Piero, Emile Heskey and Shinji Ono," he said.
"At the end of the day it's the coach, Ian Ferguson who makes these decisions and we as a club, have a process that we follow when recruiting players.
"But we would be mad not to seriously consider David Beckham."
Melbourne Victory coach Ange Postecoglou has already ruled out making an approach for Beckham.
