Miramar Police Department
Vilet Patricia Torrez was last seen on Friday visiting a friend.
Police in Miramar, Fla., say they're "very much concerned" about the fate of a mother of three who was last seen visiting a friend Friday evening.
Vilet Torrez, 38, was reported missing on Monday afternoon by her family.
"It's premature to say (foul play) definitely was involved. However, we're looking at all possibilities," Miramar police spokeswoman Tania Rues told msnbc.com on Wednesday.
Torrez never showed up for work over the weekend or on Monday, police said.
On Tuesday afternoon, detectives were at her home talking to her husband, Cid Torrez, NBCMiami.com reported. The couple separated about two months ago. He told MBCMiami.com he last saw his wife Friday afternoon when he picked up the children for the weekend.
Read local coverage from NBCMiami.com
"Our relationship, as far as when it comes to the kids – she's a great mother. As for her and me we did have our little differences right at the end. But when it comes to our kids, everything was very, very close," Cid Torrez told NBCMiami.com. "My kids need their mother."
Torrez was last seen leaving a friend's house on Friday night, police said. She may have driven home, because her car was found at her own residence in a visitor parking spot, police said.
"We're still very much concerned. There's an active search looking at all possible leads and angles and we're searching in a variety of locations," Rues said.
The couple's three children, ages 12 and under, are staying with the father.
Torrez is described as 5 feet, 3 inches tall, 125 to 130 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to call Miramar police at 954-602-4000.

For such a little bug, Ledyba has a great movepool. Encore, dual screens, Baton Pass, and two boosting moves means Ledyba can be a great supporter. It also isn't too shabby on the offensive, even with its abysmal Attack and average Special Attack. Ledyba's Bug / Flying typing and average Speed are what really hurt it. However, if you can get by that, Ledyba is a fun choice in Little Cup and can certainly live up to the name of the Five Star Pokemon.
This set is very similar to Baton Pass Gligar. The only main difference is Ledyba can use Encore, which is a huge benefit. Come in on someone like Bronzor or Omanyte, and Encore Stealth Rock and Spikes respectively. Ledyba is also a good choice to come in on Paras, since it resists both of its STABs and Early Bird lets it absorb sleep. From there, you can either set up a Substitute, or you can immediately start using Agility or Swords Dance. Bug Buzz can be used as a way to make Wynaut much more wary about coming in and using Encore, although Ledyba can Baton Pass right out of there.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Ledyba is an excellent user of Light Screen and Reflect. Ledyba's main selling point as a dual screener is that it can use U-turn to escape from Wynaut's Shadow Tag. This alone gives Ledyba an edge over other dual screeners. Encore is useful against Pokemon like Bronzor and Omanyte using Stealth Rock, allowing Ledyba time to set up Light Screen and Reflect. Roost is helpful if you are running Light Clay, since it gives Ledyba a form of recovery. It is also great when you consider that Ledyba's 50% of its Hit Points upon each switch-in thanks to Stealth Rock.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Even with Ledyba's pathetic base 20 Attack, Ledyba can be a decent Swords Dance sweeper with a movepool that is slightly better than the average Bug-type's. Bug Bite is going to be your main form of STAB. In Little Cup, Bug Bite is a fantastic move, since it allows you to heal using your opponents' Oran Berries. Mach Punch provides Ledyba with good coverage and a form of priority. The last moveslot is pretty much your preference. Aerial Ace gets STAB, and combined with Bug Bite and Mach Punch, hits everything in Little Cup for at least neutral damage. Ice Punch is useful against Flying- and Ground-types, especially Gligar. ThunderPunch hits Mantyke for an OHKO, and hits Water- and Flying-types hard. Baton Pass also gets small mention, since it allows Ledyba to get out of there when something like Phanpy comes in while passing the Swords Dance.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
This is probably Ledyba's most famous set. It's a one-time use set, but Ledyba can rip holes through teams during that time. The magic of this set is Swarm, which raises Bug Buzz's Base Power to a fantastic 180 when Ledyba is at one-third of its HP.
The best thing to do is switch Ledyba in on a Choice-locked Ground- or Fighting-type move. Ledyba will take little damage, or no damage thanks to its immunity to Ground, from these moves. Use this as a chance to use Agility. From there, just keep using Substitute until you activate Petaya Berry. Then, proceed to sweep. Bug Buzz is going to be Ledyba's main form of doing damage. Hidden Power Flying hits Fighting-types for super effective damage and gains STAB. It also hits Levitating Ghost-types. Hidden Power Ground hits Fire-, Electric-, Steel-, and Poison-types super effectively. Baton Pass can be used as a last ditch effort to pass Ledyba's boosts when you think Ledyba's time is done.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Ledyba has a rather big movepool, so it has quite a few other options. Refresh can be used to remove status from Ledyba. Knock Off is useful if you want to remove an opponents item, but it's only mediocre in Little Cup. Protect can be used for scouting or if you are using Ledyba as a lead. Tailwind is like Agility for the whole team, but three turns is often too short to take full advantage of. Focus Punch can be used with Substitute and Swords Dance for a gimmicky SubPunch set. Brick Break can be used if you don't like Mach Punch's Base Power. Return and Double-Edge are always decent options. Drain Punch and Giga Drain are interesting choices, but usually not good enough to make it onto a set.
Checks and Counters
Countering Baton Pass Ledyba is very difficult if it has a Substitute up. If you have something faster with Encore, like Abra, you can try to Encore it, but if it has used Agility, it probably won't be staying in. Ledyba doesn't run any priority on the Baton Pass set, so hitting it with moves like Ice Shard and Aqua Jet is a safe bet. In fact, just attacking is probably your best option. The dual screens set is stopped by Brick Break, but Ledyba can easily Encore it. Taunt users, like Stunky, do very well against these sets. Also, anything initially faster with Ledyba that isn't using a Choice item can do a fair job of scaring Ledyba off.
Swords Dance Ledyba without Ice Punch is beaten by Phanpy easily. Chinchou also does well against it thanks to STAB Thunderbolt and its natural bulk. Slugma can threaten to burn Ledyba with Flame Body and hit it with a super effective Lava Plume. The Swarming Sweeper is very weak to priority, so anything with priority not named Mach Punch or Vacuum Wave can handle it. Munchlax and Mantyke can stop it thanks to their huge Special Defense.

Bishop's New Year's message
12:00pm Wednesday 1st January 2014 in News
THE Bishop of Worcester's New Year message calls on Nelson Mandela admirers to take inspiration in 2014 from the legendary former South African leader's "loving and forgiving spirit".
Dr John Inge, the Bishop of Worcester, praised extensive media coverage given to the passing of South Africa's first black president on December 5 and said: "It was generally agreed that this most remarkable man was a giant who towered above all other leaders in the 20th century."
The Bishop said one of the most moving accounts he had read was by one of the chaplains who ministered to Mandela while he was in prison.
He said: "On one occasion Mandela gently stopped him during a service and went over to the young warder who was supervising.'Brand,' he asked, 'are you a Christian?' 'Yes,' the warder, Christo Brand, responded. 'Well then, you must take off your cap, and join us round this table. You cannot sit apart. This is Holy Communion, and we must share and receive it together.'
Bishop John said the chaplain watched Brand remove his cap, join the circle and receive Holy Communion, adding that he had been 'deeply humbled' by the experience as he, as a priest, 'had not thought of doing that'.
The Bishop continued: "To appreciate the significance of this incredible act of inclusive love, one needs to be aware not only of its spiritual, but also of its political significance. The fact that Christo Brand was white, and that he had responded to an invitation from a black, and so naturally, was deeply moving. Brand had political power, but submitted to the power of the Holy Spirit working through Nelson, the prisoner.
"That's one small but highly significant action in the life of this wonderful man. Nelson Mandela, through his loving and forgiving spirit which saw in everyone the image of God, brought hope not only to those of the multi-faceted nation of South Africa, but also to millions throughout the world.
"I am one of the many millions who never knew Mandela but have been inspired by him. Someone said to me a week back: 'I wish all those who admire Nelson Mandela so much would seek to emulate him.'
"Wouldn't that be a good New Year's resolution for us all?"

Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez this week issued an apology on Thursday to an elderly woman who said she was forcibly removed from a Metrorail train last month.
The reason: Emma Anderson, 82, was singing religious hymns and making noise on-board the train on February 20th when she ignored request from a security guard to quiet down, according to her son.
Video from a fellow passenger's cell phone shows the Metrorail security guard removing her at the Brickell station. Anderson fell on the platform as she struggled with the guard for her rolling suitcase.
"We are sorry that this incident occurred and apologize to Mrs. Anderson," the mayor's statement read in part.
That might not be enough.
On Friday, the family plans to hold a news conference with their attorney.
"My mom is one that praises the Lord," Donald Anderson told Miami Herald newspartners CBS 4. "That's what she do around our house. She gives God the glory. She goes out and speaks the word of God to people and she gets on the train and sing praises."
Anderson said his mother was on the train last month when her singing caught a security guard's attention. It also piqued the interest of her fellow passengers. One person captured the incident on cell phone video.
In the clip provided to CBS4 News by Donald Anderson, the guard can be seen approaching Anderson and telling her multiple times to stop singing.
But she continued, and the guard moved to escort her off the train at the Brickell station, about seven miles from her intended stop in Brownsville.
"You have to get off here ma'am. Let's go," the guard is heard saying as he grabs the woman's suitcase.
The video shows the woman falling on the platform while wrestling with the guard for her belongings.
Donald Anderson said his mother injured her shoulder and her hip.
"I was very disgusted that somebody would handle an elderly person like that," the younger Anderson said.
Miami-Dade Transit issued a statement which said, in part, "county rules associated with transit use prohibit anyone from singing, dancing or playing a musical instrument unless a commercial permit is issued by MDT."
Transit spokeswoman Karla Damian said Anderson's singing was causing a disturbance and making it difficult for other passengers to hear important train announcements.
As Anderson was removed from the train, a witness is heard asking the guard his name.
"That was not appropriate," a person can be heard saying on the video.
Mayor Carlos Gimenez seemed to agree with the concerned witness.
"The situation should have been handled with more care and common sense," the mayor said in a statement issued Thursday. "We have made it clear to all County employees and contractors that our patrons must be treated with dignity and respect."
The mayor said policies and procedures will be reviewed to make sure special consideration is taken when dealing with the elderly and people with special needs.
When asked what he thought of the mayor's apology, Anderson said, "I think it's great. I think that's a step in the right direction."

Medical Billing and Coding is the process of reporting the payment details of the patient to the insurance company for the service provided by the health center. There is a small difference between Medical Billing and Coding even if the person who does both is the same. It is the job of the coder to abstract and assign codes while the biller with the data obtained from Medical Coding claims for reimbursement.
The foremost step in the billing process is coding. A coder with good intellect on the anatomy and medical terminology, who is certified with sound knowledge, is preferred for this. The basic necessity of any coder is to know the acronyms used to help complete work effectively and efficiently. This information is then passed along to the Medical Billing, where the document is processed and sent to the insurance to claim the required reimbursement.
There are two must-know criteria in Medical Billing and Coding without which the whole process collapses. They are as follows:
- Filling a clean and error-free claim and
- Knowing the Billing and Coding Acronyms
A clean medical claim is the one which does not have any mistake from top to bottom and no additional information required from the third party. Each procedure code must have a diagnosis code and the basic necessary information regarding the patient. The International Classification of Diseases, ICD-9 which was used in the United States since 1979 is slowly disappearing with the introduction for ICD-10 which will provide more accurate data and aid the WHO. A number of payers have a standard contract which is given to the health care providers. An expert biller and coder knows the specifications of a standard contract and produces an error free perfect document to claim insurance from the insurance provider. The medical billing and coding training plays an important role in shaping the career of a medical biller and coder.

428 Jefferson Hwy, Jefferson, LA | Directions 7012129.964834 -90.135561
Monday To Friday From 10:00 AM To 05:00 PM Saturday From 11:00 AM To 04:00 PM
The worst shimp po-boy ever – Although the shrimp were pentiful, they were under cooked and soggy. The french bread, should not even be called french bread, again soggy and fell apart. I'm a native New Orleanean and know good po-boys, this was by far the worst shrimp po-boy I've ever gotten. Won't be back.
Great Fried Seafood Plater – I go to Oschners Medical foundation every 60 days or so, We stay at the Hotel St. Marie in the Quarted and Crabby Jacks on the route to Oscners. First time we stoped and ate the seafood plater we knew we had found one of the local jewels. Their platter is far better than any of the food in the French Quarter and less than half price. We eat there every time we go down now. The platter also is very LARGE, with generous portions of all the seafood they serve
Smoky, Atrocious, Cattle Call – Thought I'd try this place, so I stopped by and picked up a hot sausage po-boy, an order of fries and some onion rings. The ordering process went well. The service was fine. Although, the place was SO smoky. I left there smelling like grease. The whole place is a major cluster. Junk everywhere. Fountain drink machine was" out of order". There was a regular menu board and another hand written dry erase board with specials. Then they had another little station where they do tossed salads - which was kind of random for a po-boy joint. The salad station also had a menu board that was kind of confusing with lots of things crossed out. The kitchen was horrendous.
The french bread was soft and chewy; not crispy like a real po-boy should be. I know. I'm from New Orleans. They put thinly shredded romaine lettuce on their sandwiches??? What the heck is that all about? And they only put like a few shreds. They also use sliced roma tomatoes (or very small tomato slices???) The hot sausage patties were undercooked and mushy. The shredded cheese was the pre-packaged kind that doesn't really melt well. The fries were absolutely awful. They were tasteless, majorly undercooked and soggy. The onion rings (frozen). Most of their products are the "Sysco Special". Won't be back and won't recommend. There are way too many other better places around town. Sorry to be so crabby!
Oh, and get a web-site for crying out loud!
Worth a visit – The gulf fish platter was very tasty and great prices. But the salad bar had alreay been closed by 2pm and they were also out of sweet ice tea. The place is also only open till 4pm
Wonderful po boys! – We decided to try this place for lunch and arrived right at noon which is peak time. The line was out the door, but moved reasonably quickly. You could really tell the staff was working as quickly as possible to make their customers happy, which was a pleasant change from other NOLA restaurants lately. Every free second they had they were cleaning tables, tidying, and bussing meals to the customers. I was so impressed with their work ethic and hospitality. Sounds so simple, but lately our dining experiences in New Orleans have been met with arrogant waitstaff who think they're too good for their jobs.
My friend had the paneed rabbit po boy and I had the slow roasted duck po boy - both were very, very good. The onion rings were excellent as well, perfectly seasoned and fresh. Jacque himself brought out our order and apologized for the craziness, which we didn't mind since we frequent Jacque Imo's often and are used to the hustle and bustle. He also went around the restaurant making sure everyone was happy - what a wonderful owner and chef! By 12:45pm, there was absolutely no line. So don't be hesitant about going just because of a long line, it moves fast or if you arrive a little later you won't have to wait at all. It's completely worth the trip and absolutely delicious!
Best fried seafood po-boys in new orleans – I'm a local and submit that Crabby Jack's has the best fried shrimp and/or fried oyster po-boys in the city...i've been working my way through the menu and there ain't a flaw yet....duck po boy is excellent....fish tacos are amazing....their onion rings are wonderful....you can't go wrong, impossible, it is heaven
This informal Jacques-Imo's spinoff packs in crowds with creative seafood and lunch-counter standbys. – The Scene
Down-market and informal, Jack's is everything you'd expect from a restaurant grafted onto a wholesale-fish distributor. Stuffed fish and deer heads stare down from white-paneled walls; a few utilitarian Formica tables and a storefront-length bar provide quick seating for a mixed blue/white-collar crowd. Counter service is prompt and flirtatious.
The Food
The menu features local lunch-counter classics with modern, updated flavors: peppery mixed greens replace iceberg in salads and "dressed" sandwiches; perfectly fried calamari provide a solid alternative to the usual shrimp/oyster/catfish trifecta. The kitchen's best work is highlighted on the specials board, like tender, stuffed mirliton topped with sautéed shrimp and chili cream sauce; blackened drum; fried green tomatoes with tangy shrimp remoulade. Some specials have become year-round classics, including messy 12-napkin po'-boys with smothered duck or pan-fried rabbit tenderloin. Light eaters can make a meal out of the sizeable red beans or meaty rice dressing side dishes.
Nice casual place – Though it has only one front room, with limited space, Crabbys makes the best of it. The Po boys are way above average, and the Shrimp Mirliton with Seafood Sauce is very good..... infact borderline excellant. And the staff is very courteous, as well. I went around 11:15am on a Saturday, so there wasn't much of a wait. The best way to describe Crabby Jacks is, "It's Naturally New Orleans."
Best Po Boys in NOLA – Hands down, the best po boys in NOLA. Get it dressed and sized large if you are hungry. Add a bag of chips and a Barqs and you are set.
Their lunch meals are also top notch and substantial and better than most places that charge 4 times as much for the same thing.
This is probably the best deal value wise in the entire city. The only catch is they are lunch only.

Study Abroad Courses
Study Abroad Opportunities | Faculty | Questions
|Saint Louis University offers special courses for students preparing to study abroad as well as students returning from a study abroad program.
You can meet the 3 hrs A&S Core Curriculum Requirement for Cultural Diversity by taking all three cross-cultural courses (each 1 credit). These courses are cross-listed in Modern and Classical Languages and the Honors Program and are International Studies attributes. Courses can also be taken individually. They are not required for study abroad programs.
|Professor Norma Vogelweid speaks about the courses in the above video.
CROSS-CULTURAL PREPARATION FOR STUDY ABROAD and
|If you intend to study abroad, you will board the plane with greater confidence having taken the 1-credit course Cross-Cultural Preparation for Study Abroad (MLNG 200 / HR 280 01) before going. Through films, literature, current events, and the treasure-trove of personal stories of foreign-born guest speakers, international students, past study abroad participants, and the instructor's own twenty-five years of living and working overseas, the pre-departure course opens your eyes to see the world as a cultural explorer.
|Professor Norma Vogelweid speaks about the pre-departure course.
This course is designed for students majoring in any field who aspire to develop greater cross-cultural competence through their experience living outside the United States. The course begins in the third week of the semester, running for 9 weeks with weekly 75-minute class meetings on Thursday afternoon from 3:45 to 5:00 pm. By simultaneously registering for the Cross-Cultural Inquiry course (MLNG 201 / HR 280 03), which adds an independent study component to the first pre-departure course, you can earn another 1 credit and further explore the complexity of cultural influences and your host country. Syllabi for the two pre-departure courses available from the instructor.

"Unfortunately, there are precious few people on campus that will, or even can, begin to understand the frustration of a returning study abroad student." - Previous SLU Study Abroad Student
The other world you lived in, the other person you felt like, the other rhythm you moved to while living abroad can shadow you after returning to the States. If you don't want your life in another country to be exiled forever, take the 1-credit course Cross-Cultural Re-Entry from Study Abroad (MLNG 202 / HR 280 02).
Class themes (i.e. kaleidoscopic identity, cultural prisms - yours and theirs, transience, leaving and arriving, human connections and chasms, cultural flows and contamination, stories of taking off) give you a framework for reliving aspects of life abroad in order to extract lasting insights from what happened to you. The course begins in the third week of the semester, running for 9 weeks with weekly 75-minute class meetings on Tuesday afternoons from 3:45 to 5:00 pm. Syllabus available from the instructor.

Stuxnet, a computer virus designed to attack servers isolated from the Internet, such as at power plants, has been confirmed on 63 personal computers in Japan since July, according to major security firm Symantec Corp.
The virus does not cause any damage online, but once it enters an industrial system, it can send a certain program out of control.
Symantec says the virus reaches the servers via USB memory sticks, and warns against the careless use of such devices.
Systems at power plants, gas stations and water facilities are not connected to the Internet to protect them from cyber-attacks.
A Symantec engineer who has analyzed the virus said it was made using advanced technology, and it is highly likely a well-funded organization, not an individual, produced it. The virus has spread throughout the globe via the Internet.
After Stuxnet finds its way onto an ordinary computer via the Internet, it hides there, waiting for a USB memory stick to be connected to the computer, when it transfers itself to the memory stick. When the USB device is then connected to a computer linked to an isolated server, it can enter the system and take control of it.
As computers that harbor Stuxnet do not operate strangely, the virus can be transferred to a memory stick inadvertently.
According to the security company, the virus is designed to target a German-made program often used in systems managing water, gas and oil pipelines. The program is used at public utilities around the world, including in Japan.
The virus could cause such systems to act erratically, and it could take months to restore them to normal.
The 63 infected computers found in Japan were likely infected sometime after June.
Article is from: (Oct. 5, 2010)
According to the company, about 60 percent of the computers that have been infected with the virus were discovered in Iran. Since September, about 30,000 computers there have been found to be infected with the virus. The country's Industry and Mines Ministry has called the virus an electronic act of war.
Some computers at the Iranian Bushehr nuclear power plant, which is scheduled to begin operation in October, have been infected with the virus.
A supervisor at the plant said the virus has not damaged the facility's main computer system and would not affect its planned opening.
In Japan, no public utilities have been affected by the virus. Nevertheless, the Cabinet Office's National Information Security Center has urged electric power companies to exercise extreme care when using USB devices, and to scan any programs that may have been tampered with.

Eli-mania has to stop.
Eli Manning led one of the most memorable drives in Super Bowl history, but that doesn't mean he's a top-five quarterback. As counter-intuitive as it may seem, calling the signals for a Super Bowl team is not necessarily a litmus test for greatness.
Several quarterbacks have led their teams to championshps in recent years and quickly had career downturns. Ben Roethlisberger fell off his motorcycle and his pedestal in a matter of months after leading the Steelers to a title. Brad Johnson faded quickly in Tampa Bay. And Trent Dilfer wasn't even asked back after leading the Ravens to a championship and being undefeated as a starter. Even Kurt Warner's brilliant career did a 180 a few years after the Rams won their only Super Bowl.
Like Roethlisberger, Johnson and Dilfer, Manning has a Super Bowl ring because of his defense. Before the playoffs started, you couldn't realistically rank Manning among the NFL's top 15 quarterbacks. As impressive as Eli was in the postseason, jumping him up to the top five is ludicrous.
Manning ranked 29th in the NFL in completion percentage and tied for the league lead in interceptions (20) this season. He does have good excuses. His receivers dropped a lot of balls, his line took time to jell and the Giants didn't unveil secret weapon Ahmad Bradshaw until the final weeks of the season.
But Manning is the first one to admit he has to become more consistent. There's no guarantee that because of this Super Bowl he'll continue to play mistake-free football in 2008. Where does Eli rank among NFL QBs? I'd take these 10 guys over him for 2008:
- Tom Brady
- Peyton Manning
- Tony Romo
- Ben Roethlisberger
- Drew Brees
- David Garrard
- Carson Palmer
- Brett Favre
- Derek Anderson
- Matt Hasselbeck
If his health wasn't always in question, I'd be tempted to take Donovan McNabb over Eli as well. McNabb's numbers skyrocketed in '07 when his knee got healthy, and remember, the Eagles' receivers are terrible.
The Giants are listed as 25:1 odds to repeat as champion - behind the Pats, Colts, Chargers, Cowboys and Steelers. That strikes me as jut a bit optimistic. Key veterans are getting old, several offensive stars have been injury-prone, Jeremy Shockey has to come back next season and mess with Eli's confidence, and they'll play with a target on their backs next year. Manning will have his great games -- like his regular-season performances against New England and Dallas. But I don't think we've seen the end of Eli's multiple-interception games, like his meltdown against the Vikings.
Let me know where you think Eli belongs in the list of top NFL quarterbacks ...

Comet Hartley 2 is currently sweeping past the Double Cluster in Perseus. This is from early in the morning on 10/10/10 from NW Cedar Rapids. This is a stack of photo's combined to improve the image. It may be visible to the naked eye depending on light conditions. The light pollution is pretty bad where this was taken. It isn't as interesting as some of the Comets in the past, but it was fun trying to capture it.

3349 23rd St, San Francisco, CA | Directions 9411037.753701 -122.419483
Sunday To Thursday From 05:30 PM To 10:30 PM Friday To Saturday From 05:30 PM To 11:00 PM
Neighborhoods: Central East, Mission
The food here will help absorb the alcohol, there's an excellent selection of margaritas and tequila.
If you love Valentina hot sauce as much as I do, you can never have enough. Get yourself to Velvet Cantina for their Valentina-marinated chicken tacos, then die happy. While you wait for your food, munch on some chips and above average queso or sip on a very decent margarita. And if you really like to geek out on Mexican food, you'll love the "repollo" that comes with almost every dish: it's their answer to Mexico's answer to kim-chee.
Best Margarita's – The foods a little over powered by the heat but not bad. The margarita's are the best I've had in the city.
Now my favorite place for dining – Amazing food and staff is more then nice. Margaritas are highly recommended (started doing the pitcher, bit much for 2 but really tasty) and the times we've been there the music has been pretty decent as well. Love the booths for a private date feel and again... great food. Expect to have a small wait for a table (you can hang out at their bar) if it's prime dinner time...
Freakin Awesome Mexican Food--Cool Place! – Best chips and salsa ever, seriously! I went there because of the good reviews I read here. Small but cozy, casual. Steak tacos were great and the chicken-avocado enchiladas were even better. AND..the BEANS! I never even care about the beans but both the refried and the pintos were out of this world. The rice was pretty basic and not noteworthy unless you spiced it up with salsa. Get a pitcher of house margaritas with salt and you're all set. Great bookstore on 23rd nearby too!
Down to earth Cantina...... – My best friend and I went to the Velvet Cantina for the first time recently - at first, when we entered the restaurant -we weren't quite sure if we were at the right place, or if it was open as of yet (we went early around 5pm). We came to find out there are two entrances to the restaurant - for the record, don't enter the door on the corner of 23rd/Bartlett - you may get the wrong impression. Once we looped around to the front entrance (on 23rd) where the bar resides - our experience began to blossom. The staff was down to earth - social - and accommodating (cute too!). Before we knew it, we knew everyone by name - and had enjoyable conversations. The environment was warm, cozy and inviting. The food most importantly was good overall. We enjoyed the flavors and textures. You must get the sopas dish - it's delightful! I would also highly recommend the tortilla soup. As far as the margaritas - they were OK - I would suggest you ask for grand marinier as a topper. To conclude - my best friend and I walked away thinking we had such a great experience, felt we made new friends - and will definitely come back to introduce more of our friends and family to this super chill cantina. Great local / neighborhood spot.
average food. nothing special – If you are 22 or on a budget this may be ok, but the food is avareage at best and the margaritas were inconsistent, service slow. Our bartender didn't know that a cabernet was a red wine and for a table of 12 they only came back enough to serve 2 pitchers of margartas...if they had been ablet o come back we would have easily ordered 5 or 6. I won't go back.
Good Margaritas – I ate here a few nights ago and I wasnt really blown away. The food and the service were fine. I'd go back for margaritas with friends.
Great food, Great Drinks, and an Even Better Atmosphere! – Put this spot on your "to do list". The atmosphere is great, the bartenders are fun, and the food is tasty. I recently visited the Cantina on a Friday, just to get a quick meal and a Margarita. Well, let me tell you it turned in to great night of mingling, shots of Tequila, and a bunch a laughs. The Bar scene is ideal, it's small enough to chat with people around you but not to small where you feel crowded. If you're in the mood for a quite dinner or you're on a date there is also a dinning room away from the bar in a seperate room. The staff is quite accomadating and the drinks are stiff. Another huge plus is the music, I don't know who created the playlist on their IPod but it rocks. Don't miss out on the best new Mexican Restaurant in the City.
Avoid at all costs – This was the worst experience I've had at a restaurant in a very long time! Service was very slow at the bar, it really wasn't that busy and there were 2 bartenders. Do not order the "Perfect Margarita" it was anything but Perfect. It was very, very sour; nothing special and definitely not worth the price. We had to ask for chips and salsa while waiting for our table, it wasn't offered. We were finally seated and the experience kept going downhill. Service was very, very slow. Food was over salted, cold and the rice on all of our plates were cold, as if it just came out of the refrigerator. We were at the end of dinner when the waitress realized a beer didn't come to the table.
I don't know what clientele they're trying to attract but its definitely not people from the neighborhood. No warm welcomes or goodbyes. Kind of stuck up attitude for a place that's trying to be Divey/Mission trendy. I've been to upscale places in the Mission that were a lot more appealing with a very gracious staff. There's a lot of potential with the location and the concept but it needs a lot of TWEEKING!!! You can get the same food at a tacqueria, better tasting, better quality, hot and CHEAP.
Hip spot, decent food – I live a block away from Velvet Cantina, and I stumble in there from time to time. Usually, it's to get a drink and eat some pub-quality fare with pub-quality service. I'm not saying that the food is terrible, it's just not very elegant. I enjoy their imaginative dishes, but I'm not really sure they pull them off all of the time. To prove my point, I'll give two examples. First, the tortilla crusted chicken strips. I loved the idea, using tortilla instead of bread crumbs. When I got them, they were over-cooked, under-seasoned, and I'm not sure tortilla chips can take the extra frying. Then, I got this mental image of the cook taking all of the uneaten tortilla chips from and grinding them up...not appealing. Another example of a lack of execution was the peanut butter tamale dessert. This was served with a mexican chocolate sauce, vanilla sour cream, and chocolate sour cream. Basically, this tasted like the inside of a reces, and let me just tell you, a whole family shouldn't eat that much peanut butter, chocolate, and sour cream. Great idea, but it was just over the top.
This place is a great spot for mingling with the off-the-beaten-path mission night-lifers. At night they have a happy hour from like 10-11 or 11-12, and it gets real busy there, but this certainly effects the service.
We liked it – I went here recently with two picky people who eat out a lot in SF, and we all liked the Velvet Cantina. It feels like a group of friends who love food & fun opened up the place. The waitstaff was friendly, and the service was great. Best of all... the food was very good. Refined & fresh flavors. I had tri-tip that was nicely marinated - the creme fraiche was a great addition. The sides were a little boring & a little bland. We had the S'mores Nachos for dessert & the server toasted the marshmellows at the table with a torch. A very fun place!

Columbus >Food & Dining > Fortune Chinese Restaurant
2869 Olentangy River Rd, Columbus, OH | Directions 4320240.018736 -83.024056
Mon. - Sun. 11am - 11pm
Neighborhoods: Riverview
Been going the wrong direction – Well, this restaurant has been a staple in the city of Columbus since the early 90's. My family used to come here for Dim Sum. Well, you can forget that idea. Since its new ownership the food is so-so. Hopefully it will survive. But if you like spicy, they have the meals for you.
Editorial Review by Christy Buena – Restaurant known for its rainbow chicken and egg rolls, the quiet restaurant offers friendly service and affordable prices.
Excellent Service..Great food – I always enjoy the food here..nothing fancy but good old chinese food. The waitress, Kim is one of the best servers i have ever dealt with,very pleasant and always friendly. Dim Sum is not bad and served everyday and the hong sui fish is really good....aboslutely recommended!!!
Love Chinese Food... Hated it – Wow was that just the most disappointing meal I think I'ver ever had. We found it on this site and it had a great rating, tried it out and found the food bland and the quality of ingreadients sub par. I'm not looking for gourmet but no chicken bones would be good. We had Seazuane Chicken and Hunnan Chicken and 2 egg roles (the egg roles weren't that bad)
Good Food with Bad Service – You will enjoy Columbus' best carry-out Chinese food if you: (1) Always ask the person who takes your order to repeat your order, witherwise, be prepared to get Beef noodle instead of Seafood noodle. Either one is delicious; it just may NOT be the right one for your taste today. (2) Always open all the boxes and check your food before leaving the restaurant. By doing so may save you another 20 min driving back to exchange the Tofu you get for the Fish that you really ordered. (3) Always check if your order went through 20 min before you want to pick them up. There is about 10% of chance that it won't go through properly. (4) Have something to do (play a PSP or NDS game) while waiting at the checkout counter. It take about 5 min to have somebody finally show up there.
Its true its the best!!! – I have been going to Fortune since I was a little girl. I am sure to take all of my friends there for real Chinese food and experience. Susan is the best as is the Eight Treasure Fun Sea Soup!!! Cant say enough good things about it!
LARA B – This is truly, overall the best Chinese food in all of Columbus. My dad and his friend both work at the College of Pharmacy @ OSU and have been going there every Friday for lunch for years. My financee and I now eat there as well. Kim always brings out the award winning Hot and Sour Soup for me, my dad and my finacee before we even order. She knows it is our fav. I highly reccommend to everyone to eat there at least once and try the Hot and Sour Soup; that alone will keep you coming back for more. Also, they have a Dim Sum menu and it is the best this side of NYC's China Town I have ever had. Thanks to Kim the best waitress there and to the cooks at Fortune for making each time a delight and pleasure.
Best Chinese In Town... Get Soup!!! – By far my favorite in town! Kim, the best waitress I have ever met, knows exactly what I want to order, and makes sure everything is perfect each time I visit Fortune. The best thing there is the 'Eight-Treasure Fun Sea Soup"... Get the small, as it feeds two more than enough! Great Hunan Deluxe, Happy Family, and Moo Goo Gai Pan.
Best eggrolls in town – This place has the best eggrolls in town. When we go, the waitress recognizes us and puts in our eggroll order before she even comes to our table, now this is what i call service. Kim is an excellent waitress and will tend to all your needs.

Probably my fault for not reading more about the card, but it looks like it can only be used for downloading designs and not for general merchandise from Silhouette.
Very easy to redeem. Scratch off the code and type it in on silhouette's website. Bada Bing, bada boom, done. Great value too!
How could you not give a good review when you can get a $25 dollar card for $18. I haven't purchased anything with it yet. Just got my Silhouette for Christmas and haven't had time to play with it.
What a great deal overstock.com gave on the silhoutte gift cards. I got a $25.00 gift card for $16.00. Look for the deals when they have them on overstock.com. You can use these gift cards on the silhoutte web site to buy images to cut on your silhouette machine.
The Silhouette download card is a great value. I keep a card on my account with Silhouette at all times to avoid having a credit card on the account. This was an even better price than the deals Silhouette offers occassionally. I bought 2!
Purchased this $25 download card when offered at a discount for $19, and then used a 7% off email discount to get a greater deal. Easy to register the new card and shipping was fast.

Here you'll find a list of our favorite Blu-ray players, with a heavy emphasize on value.
The Sony BDP-S3200 will play your Blu-rays just fine but it doesn't do enough to embrace streaming media like its competitors.
The LG BP530 has built-in Wi-Fi and a good selection of apps, but there are just enough quirks to keep it from being a top Blu-ray player pick.
The Samsung BD-F5900 is an excellent Blu-ray player with the right mix of usability, performance, and speed.
The Panasonic DMP-BDT230 is a mostly solid Blu-ray player, except it serves up obnoxious ads in its onscreen interface.
The Sony BDP-S5100 Blu-ray player offers a wealth of services and very good image quality for the money.
Samsung revealed its new flagship Blu-ray player at CES 2013, capable of upconverting content to 4K and a nifty reverse-AirPlay streaming-video feature.
The Backup Plus Fast is an excellent choice for anyone, especially those for those needing lots of storage space or the ability to edit videos on the go.
The Vizio VBR200W Blu-ray player is rough around the edges and a little slow, but you do get a lot of bang for your buck.

The Sony BDP-S3200 will play your Blu-rays just fine but it's not quite as up-to-date as competitors especially when it comes to streaming media.

Will have a new deep water well installed for a lakefront cottage that I recently purchased in Northern Michigan. This cottage was originally part of a resort and is on a shared well at present. I would like some ideas to present to the well digger when getting the job quoted.
I have been on city water my whole life and new to the water well, septic systems arrangenments.
This is a small 650 square foot SEASONAL COTTAGE built on a pier and post foundation (open at bottom with 2' crawl space). I will need to winterize it late fall and drain the lines replacing the traps with RV antifreeze. BUT, I want to extend the season into early winter and start back up early in the Spring when the chance of sporadic below freezing temperatures exist.
So I will need advice on the best way to insulate the water supply line from the well (about 100" from the cottage) vertically into the cottage so that when rising above the frost level it does not freeze. Have heard some suggestions like placing the supply line inside a 4" pvc pipe, wrapped in heat tape, the light bulb heater idea, etc. Will run chases inside the heated cottage to prevent freeze ups once the water enters the dwelling.
Is there also some kind of piping arrangment that will allow the water in the well line to the cottage to "drain". How would you remove the water where the vertical 1" black plastic supply line meets up with the 3/4" copper inside lines. I am making an educated guess that these are the pipe diameters and material that will be used.
In general as well, looking for suggestions on a new well. Understand that a 110v or 220v pump can be used. What are the pros and cons of each choice. Installing a new electrical panel with plenty of room for more breakers in its 200-amp service. Any other thoughts?
Also is it a good idea/practical to have this water well circuit "backed up" on a transfer switch box so that when power outages hit a portable generator can power the well pump?
How deep do they usually bury the water line to the cottage, e.g. below the frost line?
Thanks for the advice. Guessing I am looking at $4-5,000 for about a 100' deep well and want to do this right the first time. Thanks guys.

"There is essentially this concern that people have about whether hydraulic fracturing is 'safe,'" Salazar said at the MIT Energy Conference in Boston, underscoring his disagreement with that concern by making scare quotes with his hands."
