Place was packed, but I couldn't expect anything else in the middle of a big city, great selection had a tap takeover by Avery and got to try some delicious stuff, great staff too, and I bought one of their shirts, which I really like and wear all the time

Nice open front room with a long bar, not surprisingly, saucers adorn the wall. Some decorative, others are commemorative of those complete the UFO tour (or what have you). If I was local, it would be my quest. Service was good for the most part, the "beer goddess" was pretty knowledgable, but toward the end of our visit, we felt slightly looked over and it to a while to get our last drink and dessert orders in. There's sh*t tons of taps and even more in bottles. I like they they are happy to pour samples, and building your own flight is a great feature. The menu wasn't completely up to date, but they keep a chalkboard to help fill in the blanks. Both the wife and my food was quite tasty (Rueben and the hummus pita sandwich). The food prices where cheap with the portions you got. There's typically a daily special offering great draft prices. I was there on Sunday, which is $3 Texas beers. Our 2 meals, 4 drinks, and 1 dessert didn't even break $40. That's a win.
Great place, and I'm sure I'll be back again during my stay.

The selection is undeniably the best in Texas, after that, the place has little to offer compared to smaller places like The Hay Merchant or The Petrol Station. Many downtown douches frequent this place keeping it from truly being a fun beer hangout, in my humble opine. Nevertheless, after moving to Seattle I can now say that I have experienced much better but this is towards the best Texas has to offer until laws change. Cool reward club allows frequent drinkers to chart their progress (?) and get points for drinking more. Works for everybody. The lady and I ate across from a guy taking his daughter on a date but his phone was his best friend, poor lil' gal. Waitress was being hit on by businessmen wishing and hoping, praying and preying. This bar as compared to the dive bars across the street highlight the lack of middle class in our country. What happened to middle class pubs? When in Texas, if in Texas again, I will stop by again to see if my views have changed or if my jaded self has been correct in its assesment. Are there 4 s's in that word? Anyhoo, give this place a shot and see what you think, it is truly a sight to be seen but consider if you want to become what the regulars here are.

A good atmosphere, has a big main room. Some don't like the big open bright bars and might prefer something more intimate. There are some booths in the back, but its all about the front room.
I was there on trivia night, which was fun to play. Make sure you bring some friends. You'll need help.
Huge selection of beer. I like the option to get a taster flight of any six beers on tap. A busy place, but the bartenders could be a little more engaging.
Did not try the food.
I visit Houston on a regular basis and will be back.

I feel I would have enjoyed the atmosphere more if it had been less crowded, also I was rather disheartened by their selection. I had heard how great their selection was, but I had already tried many of the unique beers on their menu and I went looking to try something new, granted they had some local stuff I had not tried. I know it was a busy night, so thats probably why the service was slow, but it certainly could have been better. The food was delicious and I was surprised the prices were extremely reasonable. Also, have a friend who got a plate for having 200 beers and I couldn't find it, so that was frustrating. If I find myself in Houston again, I would definitely go back, but its certainly not worth the hour drive if thats the sole destination.

Each night has something going. The atmosphere is great. They do a good job of getting local and regional breweries to come in to show case their beers. They do not always serve the beer in the correct glass but you can let them know and they'll fix it.
The beer selection changes seasonally so there is always something new to try.They have beer from all over. From local breweries to international beers.
The service is sometimes spotty. Some servers take a while to get your orders or disappear for a while, but the food and beer are worth the wait.
Check the website's calendar before you go to see what event they have going on that day.

Stopped by after an architecture tour downtown and grabbed a beer plus a create your own flight. They had a huge beer selection, pretty cool atmosphere. The appetizer I got was pretty good also. The organized list of brews they have is nice, its got which ones are on tap and which ones are in bottles cans etc. I was however disappointed that there were not very many pumpkin brews given the fact that its October. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the downtown area. I know I'll be back again.

I've made it out to the Flying Saucer on a few occasions, and must say that I have yet to leave truly dissatisfied.
The Flying Saucer generally always has something going on, so no matter what day of the week, or what time of the month, something is going down. Everyone there is having a good time, and its quite obviously that SEVERAL people have made SEVERAL repeat visits. They get the newest, freshest products in, and if you hit them at the right time, you'll get to try something quite nice. I was lucky enough to be around for a Utopias opening. They know how to serve the beer and to give you the right style glassware for the right style beer. Honestly, for the selection and views you see there, its really not unreasonable pricing for what you're getting.
I've recommended numerous people to this location, and am sure that I'll be making several more in the future.

Being that I am a member at this establishment I am a little biased. Love the saucer. We have a whole group that goes regularly on Wednesdays. The beer goddesses know most of us by name and take good care of us. The selection is excellent, it changes just enough to keep things interesting as the year goes on. And to be a part of history, having your name on a plate on the wall for all time saying that you drank 200+ beers is worth it in and of itself. I would recommend the Saucer for anyone who loves beer, a good time, good food and meeting new friends who love beer just as much.
...and remember: It doesn't have to make sense, It just has to be loud.

Finally was able to make it to the Flying Saucer. Been wanting to go for a while. A solid atmosphere. Decorated with plates and beer all over the bar. Everyone seems to have a great time, very crowded. Only guy not enjoying himself was the guy puking in the restroom. Service was good. As busy as it was at the bar a waitor checked on us every few minutes. The wait staff had a good idea of everything they had on tap and in bottles and what style they are. Selection is the bets in Texas. Period. Very reasonable price tag on all the beers, can't complain with that. Overall a great experience and look forward to going again.

|Can't you just smell the kamut?
First things first: both pies were delicious, with fresh toppings, a nicely balanced sauce and an admirable chewy-to-char ratio. And yet...we couldn't tell the differences between the crusts, even when sampled sans toppings. So either one of two things happened: the kitchen somehow goofed and didn't actually use the proper flour, or they've made the best low-gluten pizza ever. We're optimists, so we're gonna go with the latter, but gluten-averse folks should ask twice.

WACO, Texas (AP) - Police in the town of West, Texas, say up to 15 people have been killed in a fertilizer plant explosion that also injured more than 160 and leveled homes and other buildings for blocks.
Rescue workers are still searching the rubble in the area for any more survivors. The town's mayor had said some firefighters battling a blaze at the plant before the explosion are missing.
A West Fire Department dispatcher says the explosion happened Wednesday night at a fertilizer plant. She says any casualties would be taken to hospitals in Waco. It was unclear how many were injured or if any fatalities occurred.
The Department of Public Safety says troopers have been transporting the injured to hospitals.

Cementation and Neomorphism: Incorporating the Basics of Diagenesis into Any Sedimentary Geology Course
Kathy Benison,
Central Michigan UniversityAuthor Profile
This activity was selected for the On the Cutting Edge Reviewed Teaching Collection

- Scientific Accuracy
- Alignment of Learning Goals, Activities, and Assessments
- Pedagogic Effectiveness
- Robustness (usability and dependability of all components)

This page first made public: Jun 5, 2006
Used this activity? Share your experiences and modifications
Diagenesis is an important sedimentary process and undergraduate students greatly benefit from learning how to recognize and interpret common diagenetic features. This can be accomplished with a two to three week unit that includes lectures and lab activities that focus on cementation and neomorphism, but also includes dissolution, compaction, and paragenetic sequences.
400-level undergraduate course in Sedimentology and Stratigraphy (3-credit course and only course in sedimentary geology that our deptartment offers; a requirement for geology major)
Skills and concepts that students must have mastered
1) Basic sedimentary petrology (both in hand sample and using basic microscope to examine thin sections; know how to describe major types of sediment grains and how to classify basic siliciclastic rock types and carbonate rock types), 2) Basics of relative dating (especially cross-cutting relationships)
How the activity is situated in the course
Either a two or three week long course unit that includes lectures and two to three lab assignments. It is done approximately 2/3 of the way thorugh the semester. Diagenesis is then considered background knowledge for the final two to four weeks of the course and incorporated into lab activities in which students must consider diagenetic history in solving larger problems such as for global change studies.
Content/concepts goals for this activity
Understanding, recognizing, and interpreting diagenetic processes and products.
Higher order thinking skills goals for this activity
Hand sample and thin section interpretation, establishing a paragenetic sequence, formulation of a hypothesis, critical evaluation of possible history of sedimentary rock.
Other skills goals for this activity
Using a microscope, making hand sample descriptions, communicating data and interpretations in written form.
Description of the activity/assignment
Two or three weeks of the course are dedicated to studying diagenesis. Lectures start with a general definition of diagenesis, the range of conditions under which it occurs, and examples of diverse diagenetic environments and features. I use rice crispy cereal and rice crispy treats to introduce cement (the marshmellow is the cement that "glues" the rice krispies together). I also incorporate basic hydrogeology to show how pores filled with (or partially filled with) groundwater provide both the space and the material for cementation. As part of this lecture, I show the students various rock samples and photomicrographs in which they can see cement examples. I outline the different cement minerals and shapes and how they can be used to interpret past diagenetic conditions (eg., gravitational "pendant" calcite cements indicate that the host sediment was once in a vadose zone with groundwater rich in calcium and carbonate). I also discuss types of pores during these lectures and the ways that pores form. We also discuss criteria for recognizing cements. After two one-hour lectures about cements, we have a lab exercise in which the students are given ~10 samples (including hand samples and thin sections) and asked to sketch and describe the cement types. The next one-hour lecture focuses on neomorphic processes and their products, including replacement, recrystallization, and polymorphic transition. As part of the lecture, we look at photomicrographs and hand samples that illstrate various neomorphic features, such as replacement dolomite and replacement chert. We establish criteria for distinguishing cements from neomorphic fabrics. This lecture is followed by a lab exercise that presents the students with ~10 rocks and thin sections and asks them to sketch and identify neomorphic fabrics. This lab is follwed by another one-hour lecture on compaction features, dissolution evidence, and determining paragentic sequences. If I am short on time, that is all I do for diagenesis. However, ideally, I continue with a lecture focused on the "dolomite problem" and some case studies of other types of diagenesis, as well as a third lab assignment that combines cementation, neomorphism, compaction, dissolution, and paragenetic sequences. As part of this section, I also try to incorporate examples of methods other than petrology (eg., fluid inclusion studies, stable isotope studies, dating) that are used for diagenetic studies. Later in the course, we take several field trips in which the students examine diagenetic features.
Determining whether students have met the goals
The two to three lab assignments (out of ~10-12 during the course) are evaluated by me in detail and graded. These grades used to determine the final lab grade (~35% of final course grade). In addition, the end of the course builds upon and incorporates knowledge about diagenesis.More information about assessment tools and techniques.

text: I'm looking for advice on connecting the water supply to a freestanding tub faucet. The risers terminate in 1/2" NPS (male) under the floor. Standard flex connectors are the obvious option but I'm not sure it's a good idea fully enclosing this type of hose under the floor. A secondary concern is that the restriction introduced by these hoses will impact the fill time. Tell me if I'm unduly concerned but is there a better, more robust, permanent way to transition from 1/2" copper to 1/2" NPS.

More on the Louisiana end of the soul food spectrum, this Oak Hill joint does cajun right: Order a heaping helping of atchafalaya catfish, or spicy, warm-you-up-inside jambalaya with chicken and andoullie sausage.
Great place except for Breakfast – We love this place for lunch and dinner. Food seems to be a little inconsistent but overall good value except for breakfast. We usually go to Kerby but it was crowded and remembered they serve breakfast. It was awful - sausage was fatty and poor quality just like the eggs. I think my breakfast was $6.99 but I think it was worth $2.00! Toast was normal bread from the super market nothing real special. Its a shame b/c I think they can do much better.
Watch out for "6 or more will include 20% gratuity added" – We have been dining at the Cypress Grill several times a month since the restaurant first opened. Usually great food, and great service - sometimes there are small problems but these are usually taken care of quickly and efficiently.
Today, however a new wrinkle hit us - one that usually means that I will NEVER frequent an establishment in the future. ALTHOUGH NOT LISTED ON THE BREAKFAST MENU we had a 20% gratuity added to our bill for having 6 people at our table. There were 4 adults and a 3 year old and 1 year old at the table. The 1 year old did not have any food ordered but we did ask for an extra plate to let her have some of her sibling's food. When the order arrived, one of the orders was wrong - so wrong it must have been entered incorrectly. We asked and did have this order corrected - but some time passed for this diner while waiting. Another order (eggs) was served cold although the sauce that was on top was hot so it appeared to be hot when it reached the table. Because of the delay on the first order this was not asked to be replaced as this would have added additional time with the two small children at the table.
When the bill arrived the gratuity of 20% was included in the total. When questioned this was answered that we had 6 people at the table. Although I think this practice of adding gratuity is wrong, I understand what happens to servers when they have large groups who do not leave enough money when paying the bill because they are "splitting" the check when it arrives at the table. But to do this only for a family of 6 and especially when the total of 6 people include a 3 year old and a 1 year old who did not have ANYTHING off the menu is grossly incorrect.
Spoke with the Manager on duty - Jay whose main comment was that the gratuity goes straight to the server and they should not be held responsible for kitchen mistakes. I stated that I understood that servers should not be held for kitchen mistakes but GRATUITIES are given by the customer for service and the entire dinning experience. Sometimes the server's service enhances the amount left, sometimes the kitchen can help a less than adequate server off the hook for poor service. BUT ADDING A 20% GRATUITY TO A FAMILY DINNING EXPERIENCE IS WRONG. Jay stated this was the owner's, John, policy to protect the employees.
So everyone while I have enjoyed dinning at this restaurant and enjoy the meals they serve be aware if you have 6 or more people seated at your table, regardless of the number of orders placed there will be a 20% gratuity added to your final bill and it will not be removed in any circumstance as we were told.
John - I hope that you will come to this site and tell us that my experience was unfortunately unique in this situation and YOU did mean that this type of gratuity would be included in this manner. If you do want this included JUST RAISE YOUR PRICES 20% and give this amount to your servers and let everyone know that there is NO GRATUITY REQUIRED.
Yum! A lot of variety and not a chain!! – They have a wonderful variety - great cajun food, excellent catfish and a great weekend breakfast - and good desserts. Also a nice reward program, wonderful art, and most of the staff are pleasant and helpful!
Best Pancakes and Breakfasts – Visiting my family in Austin, my grandaughter told me that there was a restaurant with, " the best pancakes in the world." Five of us went for breakfast and she was right. The breakfast was delicious, the pancakes were great and the service was excellent.
Wonderful Surprise – So impressed with this place that I have finally been inspired to write a review. We've lived in this part of town for a couple of years and had pretty much accepted that there were no good restaurants unless we were in the mood for deep-fried lard. Stopped in to the Cypress Grill Sunday for brunch and were very, very pleasantly surprised.
I had their version of Eggs Benedict - with creole hollandaise sauce. Amazing! Nearly ordered more. Also had some pancakes. Shocking. Just some simple pancakes, but they were great - perfect texture.
Really good food. Good service. We will be back. Hopefully this is the direction the neighborhood is moving in.
The Crawfish Linguine is excellant – The rest of the menu is diverse and good. Great neighborhood hangout. Not a chain restaurant, great desserts.
The best!!! – I love to call and order the catfish atchafalaya to go - it's ready when I arrive, and it's the best take-out dinner that I have had in Austin. So good!!!
One of our favorite places to eat – We have been eating here for 5 years, since we moved to the area. It's one of our favorite places to go! The food is really really good. The service is always attentive. And the prices are reasonable. I highly recommend this place if you're craving cajun!
One of my neighborhood favorites! – Everything you'd expect from a slightly hole-in-the-wall-ish type cajun/creole restaurant. Oysters and shrimp taste fresh, whether served in an entree or fried for a poboy. Salads are refreshingly green - no boring iceberg here! The fried catfish is perfect - light, crispy batter and flaky fillet. One entree offers the catfish topped with crawfish etouffee.... indulgently delicious. My husband can't stop ordering the Troy's Favorite Lunch, which is a muffaletta with a side of gumbo. Tasty appetizers and desserts, too - try the spinach dip and whatever pies are fresh that day. Service can be a little slow when things are busy, but the staff are always friendly and helpful. If you're looking for a refreshing non-alcoholic beverage, try the "mojito" soda.

Canada's Economic Action Plan- Improving Community Infrastructure
Grant Project UPDATE:
In 2012, the District was successful in receiving a Community Infrastructure Improvement Grant. This federal funding is helping the District to initiate new projects at Maplewood Farm. With matching funding from the District of North Vancouver, the funds will be targeted to the following areas:
- Addition of a multi-purpose room to the existing Visitor's Centre Building for workshops and display space
- New washroom facility to replace old washroom structure
- Addition of six new covered viewing shelters with interpretive signage
- Addition of new Goat Playground area for the goats
Construction started on Monday October 21, 2013 with completion anticipated for mid-March, 2014. Maplewood Farm will remain open through the process. It is expected that there will be some disruption to our operation in regard to public safety. There may be times when normally accessible areas are cordoned off. We are excited about the coming improvements and hope to minimize any inconvenience to you, our valued customers and members. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions and concerns.
Current areas of the farm affected:
Visitor Centre: Limited Merchandise out on display due to upgrade and expansion of building to include a new multi-purpose, heated, community use room.
Washrooms: Old building is being completely replaced and rebuilt. Temporary facilities, including wheelchair accessible washrooms, are located on the Southern edge of the white Storage Barn, near our hand-washing station.
Other areas of the farm may be temporarily blocked off for both animal and visitor safety as construction takes place. Please check the website for details.

Reverse SSH – Defeating NAT and firewalls not under your control
October 10, 2009
I have a good friend learning Linux, and I'm trying to help him along as best as I can. Normally, I'd ask him to open up port 22 and start SSH, giving me a user account to log in. However, his connection is via satellite internet, and there's some funky routing and NAT going on from the provider's side. He doesn't have a true external IP, and hence, can't forward that port.
Enter reverse SSH. With reverse SSH, I had my friend use SSH to forward one of my local machine's ports back to his own machine's port 22. Then, I connect to my own machine via that tunnel which allows me to connect to his. It sounds more complicated than it is.
From the firewalled machine, connect to another host. This can be any machine that both parties have access to with an SSH account.
$ ssh -R 2022:localhost:22 firstname.lastname@example.com
Once the user has connected, from the remote.example.com machine, you can SSH back to the firewalled host, like this:
$ ssh username@localhost -p2022
You're connecting to port 2022 on your localhost, which is a tunnel back to the firewalled client's SSH server on port 22.
That's all there is to it.

About Beneish M Score
The Beneish M Score helps to uncover companies who are likely to be manipulating their reported earnings. Companies with a higher score are more likely to be manipulators. This is a probabilistic model, so it will not detect manipulators with 100% accuracy.
The best cut-off point depends on the costs mistakenly classifying in one of two ways:
1) Classifying firm that is manipulating earnings as a non-manipulator (Type I error), and
2) Classifying a firm as a manipulator when it actually was not manipulating (Type II Error).
Here are optimal cut-offs according to Beneish, presented as the score followed by the cost of Type I error relative to cost of Type II error):
M Score HTML Table:
|Relative Error Costs
(Type I:Type II)
|M Score > -1.49
|M Score > -1.78
|M Score > -1.89
Beneish excluded financial institutions from his sample when calculating the M-Score, so extreme care should be taken when looking at M-Scores of financial firms - their business models are different from the manufacturing and other service firms that Beneish used in his study.

I have lived in the mid-west all my life and have been an x-ray technologist for over 35 years. I found the Find A Grave website back in 2000 while helping my daughter research a school project. At the time, the more I explored Find A Grave the more disappointed I became that some of the famous individuals that were posted did not have a personal photograph in addition to their gravesite displayed. In the process of trying to locate photos for Find A Grave I have learned a lot about many of the individuals that it has been my pleasure to honor. History has always been a passion for me and Find A Grave has helped satisfy my curiosity tremendously.

Do you know why Find-A-Grave has never added a "Star" for Dick Haymes? I wrote a Memorial for the actor-dancer Gene Nelson, and so far they haven't added a "Star" for him either. Please feel free to visit his site and leave a message. Thanks! Cheers~~ Lon +

With regards to the cause of death on Mr. Wertz's page, he died during heart surgery at Detroit's Harper Hospital on the morning of July 7, 1983. Surgeons were performing a coronary bypass and replacing a valve in his heart after he had suffered a heart attack the previous day.

Dear Mr. Moody,
I know that you don't managed this memorial anymore but if you could pass this information along to Find a Grave about John George Agar Jr.
According to Wikipedia on John Agar-he remarried in 1951 to Loretta Barnett Combs and they had two sons, Martin Agar and John G. Agar III. The photo I keep trying to add to his memorial is a photo of his engagement in 1945 to Shirley Temple. I really don't understand why it should not be added to his memorial, but if you can find out the reason the admin. keeps deleting it I would be grateful Thanks.

Herbert Lom.
He was born on September 11th. My younger Brother went to Mary Abbot School in Kensington with his son Alec. In the 1960's he had a television serial called The Human Jungle. He was my hero in the 60's and I often saw him and spoke to him. He had a farm in Bethersden in Kent. I once did a scrapbook on him in my teens which he loved. I wasn't aware he had made any pictures in Prague but I do know a Lady that lived in Dorset House, Marylebone took him under her wing when he came to this Country and helped him in her career. He was a lovely person.

Hallo, Mr. Moody,
I'm a big fan of actor Herbert Lom. Therefore, it is important to me that the date of birth is correct. Unfortunately, the date of birth is not right there. Herbert Lom was born on September 11, 1917. Can you fix it? Thank you. Robert.

Warewulf is an operating system management toolkit designed to facilitate large scale deployments of homogeneous and heterogeneous systems on physical, virtual and cloud based infrastructures. Originally, the Warewulf project pioneered the concept of stateless computing in HPC, setting the standard for large-scale cluster provisioning. It provided two functions, provisioning and monitoring but the two functions did not communicate within Warewulf itself, nor was it possible to hook other functions directly into Warewulf itself. Today, Warewulf is more than just a basic provisioning and monitoring solution as it now implements an abstract, object-oriented data store and a modular interface that facilitates a highly extensible, customizable feature set.

All-Star Give And Go: Durant chases Wilt, Slam Dunk Contest predictions and more
Give And Go is a recurring feature in which The Point Forward's Ben Golliver and Rob Mahoney bat an NBA topic du jour back and forth. This week: A look ahead at All-Star Weekend in New Orleans.
1. Will Kevin Durant break Wilt Chamberlain's single-game scoring record (42 points) at the 2014 All-Star Game?
Ben Golliver: No. The safe/conservative money is obviously on "no" here because this is such a high standard and it pains me a little bit not to go out on the limb. After all, just last week, I constructed my entire "All-Star Game Re-Draft Roster" around the idea of force-feeding Durant in an attempt to make history.
There are plenty of conditions working in his favor in real life. Durant is averaging 31.2 points on the season — not that far from the 42-point mark — and he's shooting at career-high clips from the field and from three-point range. The timing couldn't be better, as he's averaging 34.7 points since Jan. 1. He's a proven All-Star commodity, as he's hit for at least 30 points in his last three appearances. The Thunder's Scott Brooks will be coaching him, a nice advantage when it comes to ensuring big minutes and plenty of shots. He will be playing alongside Clippers point guard Chris Paul, the league's premier set-up guy, who won the All-Star Game MVP last year and is likely to be in a giving mood. He will not be playing alongside Kobe Bryant, which is big because the Lakers' guard has averaged 19.8 shots over his last five All-Star appearances, meaning more opportunities for Durant.
2014 NBA All-Star hub: Schedule, preview, coverage and more
The ongoing "LeBron or Durant?" MVP debate could even help Durant's cause; a mano-a-mano showdown between the two players, like the one we saw when the Thunder beat the Heat in January, would provide a little cover for some shameless ball-hogging. There's no question that Durant has approached this season, from the moment he challenged Dwyane Wade in September, with a chip on his shoulder and statements to make.
Even with all of those favorable factors, I'll play it safe and guess he comes up a bit short. He will need to contend with both James and Pacers forward Paul George when it comes to matchups, and the loaded West squad has no shortage of weapons (Stephen Curry, Blake Griffin, Kevin Love, LaMarcus Aldridge, Dwight Howard) to compete with Durant for Paul's attention. That said, my top All-Star Game hope is that Durant sets his mind to gunning for Chamberlain's mark and we all get to enjoy the ride.
Rob Mahoney: Yes. The odds might be against KD, but I actually think he might really want this one. Durant came pretty close to breaking the record with his 36 points in 2012, and last year he went for 30. Between those two games Durant averaged 24.5 field goal attempts, a number he'll likely have to top if he's to surpass Chamberlain. That shouldn't be a problem. Durant's torrential scoring season — atop the fact that he's the headlining star of the Western Conference — should give him all the opportunity he needs to put up shots. That Durant's high-scoring tear was so public and so widely admired only helps matters as well; by making a pronounced run at this season's MVP award, Durant has only further established himself as a star among stars, as well as the game's natural foil for LeBron.
2. Blazers guard Damian Lillard is participating in a record five All-Star events. How many will he win?
Mahoney: Just two, I'll guess, though Lillard has an honest shot at four. I'm essentially ruling out a dunk contest win. While Lillard already has some impressive in-game throwdowns on his résumé, I just think he's a bit out of his depth with this field. Paul George and Terrence Ross will be tough acts to follow, and even among the point guards competing it's hard to favor Lillard over a lanky leaper like John Wall.
The Three-Point Contest is more in line with Lillard's talents, though the quality of competition could easily get the better of him. It's hard to pick against a player like Curry, not to mention Kevin Love, Arron Afflalo or defending champion Kyrie Irving. I'd say this is Lillard's best shot at adding a third win to his All-Star weekend, but I'll still take the field.
RELATED: Pros, cons of new Slam Dunk Contest format
All-Star Friday might also be a tough win for Lillard, as he was the first player picked in the Rising Stars Challenge but figures to play little due to his weekend workload. It's common practice for those rookies or sophomores also selected as All-Stars to pull light duty on Friday. When Blake Griffin competed in both games in 2012, for example, he logged just 11 minutes in the Rising Stars Challenge. That puts Lillard's team in a bind right off the bat, as the next ball handlers in line are Dion Waiters and Bradley Beal. How can Team Hill expect to run away victorious without a designated fast break leader/lob thrower?
That leaves only the main event and the Skills Challenge, both of which Lillard has a solid chance of winning. A victory in the former would be largely by proxy; Lillard isn't likely to play a ton for a guard-heavy Western Conference team, though the depth of that roster should be enough to beat the top-heavy East and earn him a victory in some sense. The Skills Challenge, though, looks like an easy take for Lillard. He's paired with Utah's Trey Burke to compete in the new relay format, and the two will face their stiffest competition from the tandem of Phoenix's Goran Dragic and Oklahoma City's Reggie Jackson. I like Lillard's chances to repeat given his balanced game and Burke's quickness.
Golliver: Three. This is a tough one because so many of the competitions have new formats and because Lillard is so busy that it's hard to keep track. Let's go one-by-one: I see Lillard taking it fairly easy in Friday night's Rising Stars Challenge, which is potentially a big problem because he's the only point guard on Team Hill. Guards always dominate this event, and Team Webber has the three Rookie of the Year candidates — Michael Carter-Williams, Trey Burke and Victor Oladipo — who will all be looking to impress. That's enough for me to pick against Team Hill, even if they are the more experienced and physically imposing bunch.
RELATED: Examining Dunk Contest field: Breaking down each participants
I see Lillard kicking off All-Star Saturday with a win in the Skills Challenge. He took home the title last year, and the new format — which includes two teams of two players from each conference — definitely favors the West, which is loaded with four point guards.
Next, I like Lillard's chances in the Three-Point Contest far more than the oddsmakers, who put him at 6/1, behind Stephen Curry, Kevin Love, Arron Afflalo and Kyrie Irving. My top three, in some order, are Curry, Lillard and Spurs guard Marco Belinelli, who will eat each other alive in the opening round. Whoever emerges from the West — I'll go with Lillard because he's an excellent shooter, he has a quick shooting motion and he's unlikely to be fazed by any misses — should be able to handle the East's best (my guess is Arron Afflalo) in the final.
Conversely, I see the East running away with the Dunk Contest, with Lillard as possibly the weakest link on the West's squad. Although he is likely to be a fan favorite because of his ubiquity across these events and because he will be the shortest competitor at 6-foot-3, his dunk repertoire just isn't that deep (he has eight slams this season) and he doesn't have the super-duper crazy vertical leap of guys like Steve Francis, Nate Robinson or Robert Pack. The new "Battle" format of the Dunk Contest — which will pit Lillard against Paul George, Terrence Ross or John Wall — looks pretty daunting, especially at the end of what will be a long night.
Finally, I like the West's depth and quality to prevail during Sunday's All-Star Game, with Durant leading the way. As the second-youngest player on the roster, Lillard isn't likely receive major minutes, but that surely won't spoil what will be a whirlwind 72 hours.

Have mercy!
John Stamos is reuniting with his old band from his "Full House" days, but it won't be at The Smash Club. Instead, the fictional -- but undeniably awesome -- Jesse and the Rippers will perform on "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" this Friday, according to People.
Stamos even posted an Instagram video of his boy band singing the "Full House" theme with the teaser: "Never thought I'd be singing THIS song."
The "Necessary Roughness" star has never dissed his sitcom start, and he's also never been one to shy away from a fun, fun, fun musical number. As we await the reunion of Jesse and the Rippers, here's a look back at John Stamos's greatest hits.
Blackie's band
Before Jesse and the Rippers, there was Blackie and the Riff Raff. Yep, Stamos's first big break was on the ABC soap "General Hospital," where his character, Blackie Parrish, performed gigs all over Port Charles. Stamos credited the late, great Sammy Davis Jr. for his character's musical start after Davis made a cameo on the show
In an interview earlier this year with Jeff Probst, Stamos revealed, "I always wanted to play drums on the show and they wouldn't let me. And then Sammy came on and there was a drum set, and he adlibbed and said 'Hey Blackie, can you play drums?' It was completely adlibbed … and from then on I started playing music on the show." Fun fact: Jack Wagner was also a member of the Riff Raff.
Who can forget Jesse and the Rippers' biggest hit? The old Beach Boys song "Forever" was featured on "Full House" several times, most notably when Jesse (Stamos) sang it during his wedding to Becky (Lori Loughlin.) A Beach Boy or two may have even turned up to sing the cover of their song with him. Check out the official video here.
Endless summer
Speaking of the Beach Boys, they've jammed with Stamos several times on "Full House" and he even appeared in the 1988 video for their song "Kokomo." Not only that, but the actor was surfin' across the USA with the group invited him to join them for their 50th reunion tour last year. Stamos told TMZ, "[The Beach Boys] asked me to be a part of the show ... I feel very honored."
Rocky horrifying
Stamos went all "Rocky Horror Picture Show" on us when he performed "Hot Patootie -- Bless My Soul" on a 2010 episode of "Glee," but it could have been truly horrifying. The actor told Entertainment Weekly the original script had him singing a very different tune. "I was supposed to be doing 'Sweet Transvestite,'" he said, "But I think the network saw the script and was like, 'Stamos in fish nets? It's too soon!' So they switched it up. I was bummed, because I wanted to play that part."

The U.S. economy could be headed toward a fiscal cliff if a few underlying issues go unaddressed, former Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Alan Blinder said Monday.
Federal government spending cuts set to go into effect January 2013 — half of them directed toward the Pentagon — would cause GDP to contract by as much as 3.5 percent.
"Across-the-board is a blunt instrument," Blinder said on "The Kudlow Report."
Blinder said that he expected Congress to reprioritize the targets of those spending cuts, but he saw another challenge ahead.
"How are you going to get members of Congress to agree on a list?" he said.
Blinder authored a Wall Street Journal op-ed piece, titled "The U.S. Cruises Toward a 2013 Fiscal Cliff," in which he argued: "It is next to certain that nothing will be done about the fiscal cliff during the election season. In fact, some Republicans are now threatening to renege on the spending cap for fiscal year 2013 that they agreed to last summer. In the absence of progress between now and Election Day, Congress will have about eight weeks left — including Sundays, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Eve — to either (a) find a solution to the long-running fiscal battle or (b) kick the can down the road again."
Blinder, who is an economics professor at Princeton University, said he didn't actually believe the Pentagon would actually take such a hit, but said the budgetary decisions needed to be tackled sooner rather than later.
Blinder also said that it would be tough to cut off unemployment benefits entirely in one fell swoop, even after two years of assistance.
"You have a huge need to prop up demand, you have huge humanitarian needs," he said. "You alleviate a whole lot of hardship."
But just dropping programs on the federal level wasn't necessarily the answer.
But just dropping programs on the federal level wasn't necessarily the answer.
"I think shifting it to the states is a terrible, terrible idea," he said.
Tax reform was necessary, Blinder said, ideally with a nonpartisan, practical approach to increase revenues. But even this was not a cure-all.
"If you look at the whole budget picture and think you'd be able to solve it with nothing but tax increases, the answer is no," he said.

Had a recurring top bulge problem behind the bridge on an extremely lightly built single O. Tried several heat/steam fixes but the problem kept coming back. The Bridge Doctor solved the problem brilliantly and improved the tone of the guitar noticeably. Fitting the drilled hole behind the bridge pins was a bit tight with the traditional pyramid bridge, but I put in an abalone plug instead of the plastic one provided and it looks great. Had to grind down the bridge pins nearest the mounting screw to fit them around the wood block, but I probably could have taken it out and knocked off the corners of the unit instead. Highly recommended. Don't be afraid of this fix.
Ordered this after doing a lot of research and the verdict seemed that it helped guitars with 'pulled forward' bridges. I bought it to rejuvenate a 30 year old Eko 12-string belonging to a friend. I was nervous fitting it (I had to drill out one of 3 rivets securing the Eko bridge in place) but it worked out fine. TIP: Draw your guitar bridge out first on paper using accurate measurements to 'test run' this thing before you go ahead and fit - and so you can get an idea of how it works. I did and it helped a lot to reassure me what was going on. Result? I *think* it has stopped the buckling on the 12 string; I've lowered the action (made a fresh bridge saddle piece) and it's playable once again. Did it fix the buckling? It's hard to tell... I think it did a little bit. I believe it has certainly stopped it going any further under the massive load of the 12 strings. Time will tell: I've asked my friend to bring the guitar back to me in 3 months time to take another look. Overall, I think it's well worth doing.
Much has been said in favor of the Bridge Doctor but I wanted to put some emphasis on how easy the thing is to use! I installed a "screw mount" on my "late '67-ish" Yamaha 12 string and found that working slowly/carefully rendered superior results. The one instance where I varied from the written instructions was in the use of a variable speed screwdriver, a hardened steel drill bushing/guide and a stop collar to drill the relief for the "button".
I have an inexpensive Oscar Schmidt 12-string that always played well and had good action, but the action was starting to get too high. Bridge Doctor was the solution. I used the single screw, which worked fine with my bridge. It had enough adjusting options to position it correctly under the saddle and still allow room for the original pins (see photo). Easy to install. Great product.
I ordered the brass pin mount and put it in my Grandfather's 12-string... This guitar was badly warped with about 1 to 1 1/2" (maybe even 2"... I didn't measure.) gap between the neck and strings @ the 12 fret. It is tightened as far as it can with no movement of the top. There is only 2 stars for the fact that it was complete and i had no issues installing.
I could go on about this thing but it's all been said. Installed the screw mount in my 40 year old Hummingbird copy. I R & R'd the bridge as well. Only one problem .. had to shave 3mm off the bottom to make it fit but what an awesome response to all issues. Great product.
It saved my old Epiphone flat top. Before this, the bridge would pull up and the action got quite high. No problem now
I took a lot of time considering and consulting 'reviews' and principles of this thing, and have a fair bit of experience with guitars, knowhow and tools to do it. The guitar is a Seagull Maritime mini jumbo and only a year old, but was slightly bellying. Mainly I wanted to prevent any further movement (and take the slight bit out) and stabalise the top. I also noted the great sound that Breedlove guitars achieve with this as standard and figured that, as a truss for the top, it would provide long term structural integrety and more stable tuning. It did all this and more, a little more sustain and 'bass' response and evenness of tone and tuning stability is great for altered tunings as the top remains constant, even with the altering of the string tensions, the others stay true to pitch. I'm confident that this top 'truss rod' will keep the top stable and strong for the life of the guitar. I'd recommend it, but be sure you have the skills and room inside for this device. Don't force the top (Mine was bearly lifting). I used and recomended the cheaper permanent install, but again, make sure there is enough room in the bridge and the underside and no pickups in the way. I used a hole punch of tortoiseshell pickguard material over a black dot and unless looking closely, the installation is invisible...see pic
yes it sorted out the bulge in my Martin's plastic sheet top , it sounded tighter and seemed to fit the bill. But - the brass pins don't put much down pressure on the saddle, although the solid brass anchors maintain the sustain. After 3 months of installation and 3 weeks of being away on business, I picked up this guitar to find it had settled with two strings buzzing on the saddle. So I need to do some messing about with the truss rod or might have to shim the saddle up a tad. There goes my nice low action.
Just installed one of these on an old Yasuma that had a slight belly, and was sounding quite flat. It took 1/2 hour to install. The Bridge Doctor reduced the bellying, and greatly improved tone and sustain. As others have said, go slow with the adjustment on the post. Try humidifying the guitar and tensioning the rod slowly over a period of a few weeks.

2620 Franklin Pike, Nashville, TN | Directions 3720436.120222 -86.774497
Sun 10am-9pm, Mon 11am-10pm, Tue-Sat 10am-11pm
The sandwiches they serve are the best around town. The service crew is always alert and eager to please you. This place is great for breakfasts too.
Weird spices... – Frankly, I don?t see what all the hype is about. The burgers are huge, no doubt about that, but they?re dry as a popcorn flatulation and the fries are limp. And at Fat Mo?s, they use some kind of spice I can?t identify that?s really weird and makes everything taste funky. I?ve tried to place it and all I can come up with is a mixture of paprika and somebody?s feet. And it?s on everything, too.
Terrible burger – Burger was over cooked, dry and mealy seemed to be totally devoid of any seasoning. I might have just been on a bad night, but the burger was so bad I doubt I will give them another chance
No Mo'...Fat Mo's for me !! – I used to love Fat Mo's on Murfreesboro Rd., but I guess 5 yrs ago it changed ownership and like many of the Fat Mo's locations, Mo don't own them anymore. The food taste basically the same, but the service has gone way down. The girl that ordered in front of me had a big hair on the top of her fries. I ordered regular fries, but instead of regular fries I got a cold order of seasoned fries, probably belonged to the girl that brought her's back with a hair on them. The family behind us had their order wrong as well. Service was slow and they were not too concerned about it. If their quality of service has gone down that much, then it just makes you wonder about how well they are handling the food in the back.
Also....never order the bacon cheeseburger, if you choose to go there. Fat Mo's is owned by muslim's and they only service rubbery slices of turkey bacon. Nothing wrong with them being muslims...it's just that they don't use pork.
This place just isn't too special anymore.
This place TOTALLY ROCKS!!! YUMO!
Their burger and fries are all that I've had there so far, and they are AWESOME!!!!
Their Fries and burgers are seasoned perfectly--
Definitely one of the best burgers and fries I've had in Nashville so far!!
You have to eat in your car or on their picnic table, but it's no compromise really at all for the food!
I will definitely bring out of towners to eat here!
BEST burger!!! – This place is great. I used to go to the one on Murf. road all the time. The only thing that would be better is if you could get a cold beer with the burger. Great owners! It's nice to have a burger that is actually seasoned for a change. I moved from Nashville years ago and still miss Mo's.
The ONLY place to get the best burger in Nashville – After you've had a Fat Mo's burger...and I mean any of their burgers...you will feel ashamed for McDonalds, Burger King, etc! I'm not a huge burger fan, but when I get the craving, I have to go to Fat Mo's. Plus, their seasoned fries are the perfect compliment.
An immigrant cooks up a bit of Americana at a burger joint known for its gargantuan patties. – The Scene
A meaty reminder that the American dream is alive and well, Fat Mo's two locations epitomize value and service. The Mo is short for Mohammad Karimy, an Iranian immigrant who fled his homeland in the '70s. In '91, he added his truncated name to a storefront on Murfreesboro Road and started making burgers the old-fashioned way. Customers don't mind the wait once they sink their chops into his monolithic all-American sandwiches.
The Food
Some of Mo's burgers are so big, they can be measured in pounds, not ounces. If you're hungry enough to eat something the size of your steering wheel, they're willing to accommodate. Add a bounty of spicy, curly cut fries and a barrel of soda, and you can live out of your car for days. There are also smaller burgers for those with more modest appetites.
Great Burgers! – I love Fat MO's Burgers! They are wonderfullt flavored and all peppery! Real hamburgers you would make at home! just wonderful and good size too for the price-- and always get the spicey fries!!!!
Delicious – Why do I miss living in Nashville? Fat Mo's!!! Great food for a great price. Anytime I hear that someone is going to visit Nashville, I tell them that they MUST have a Fat Mo, fries and a shake!!!

As we're into another busy season for air travel in Canada, it's a good idea to get ready before you head to the airport, especially if you haven't flown for a while.
One organization that can help make your air travel a little less confusing is the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA), the Canadian crown corporation responsible for screening air passengers and their baggage in Canada.
Their Web site includes a What to Pack section with information on which items are permitted and which aren't. It also tells you how to speed up security screening of both people and baggage, including international regulations, and tips for different types of passengers, like seniors, small children and those with special needs. You can even check the current security wait times by airport in Canada.
It's a good idea to check the Web sites for the airlines you'll be using too.
Knowing what to expect at the airport and preparing before you get there could save you time and make your trip a lot less stressful.

No Fix in Sight for Metroid Bug
Nintendo aware of the issue.
A new game-breaking bug recently discovered in Metroid: Other M is forcing some players to have to restart their game.
As IGN writer Samuel Claiborn noted in his guide, if the door on the far side of the lava pit (picture below) in Sector 3 after you leave the desert refinery via the elevator is red, you're stuck.
As of now, it's unclear what can trigger the bug. Some users have suggest copying the save file, however, that doesn't appear to solve the issue. A Nintendo Customer Support representative said the company is aware of the issue and that loading an older save, if available, or starting over is the only current solution available.
Nintendo isn't known for releasing individual patches for games, but it could sneak a fix into an upcoming firmware update for the Wii.
It's currently unknown how widespread this is. IGN has received several e-mails from readers and numerous message boards are buzzing about the bug. If you've experienced this problem, let us know in the comments below and we'll post a workaround as soon as one is found.
