I've been trying to locate information on a George Sanders and his family... born about 1823 in England, died in April of 1866 in Flushing, Michigan. According to the death certificate of his daughter, Minnie (Mary) Belle Sanders Post, he was married to an Ann (and I can't make out the maiden name), also from England. Ann and some of her children appear to have run a hotel according to the 1880 census in Flushing. The first few children were born in Canada, also according to the census.
Any additional info anyone may have would be greatly appreciated.

The 10 Best Scenes of 2005
This is not a list of the Top 10 movies of the year.
That list would include ìThe Squid and the Whaleî and ìSyriana.î It wouldnít include ó as this list does ó ìLords of Dogtownî and ìThumbsucker.î
You could even argue that itís easier for good scenes to stand out in so-so movies, just as itís easier for a good ballplayer to stand out with the Royals than the Yankees. Wow, look at that guy. You remember him. Put him next to Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter and heís a little more forgettable.
Nevertheless, most of the scenes below are from good movies. A surprising number deal with men breaking down emotionally (No. 5, No. 2) or connecting emotionally (No. 9, No. 6, No. 1). There are few women in the scenes below. I donít know whether to blame Hollywood (and its chauvinism) or me (and my solipsism) for this. Probably some combination. I apologize in advance.
WARNING: SPOILER ALERT. Plot points in recently released movies will be revealed. If you donít want to know, stop reading. Everyone else, party on.
10. This ainít your fatherís anti-war movie
Jarheads cheer on Wagner in ìJarhead.î
Twenty-five years ago Siskel and Ebert deconstructed the ìRide of the Valkyrieî scene in ìApocalypse Now,î finding it both sickening and exhilarating, which they felt was Coppolaís point. This year Lawrence Weschler, in an excellent piece in Harperís Magazine, did the same, and wondered whether any war movie could be anti-war since theyíre all so exhilarating. But he concludes that ìJarheadî might be that beast ó the true anti-war movie ó because it teases and teases and doesnít give the soldiers what they (and presumably we) want. We train these guys for war but donít let them fight. We train them for war but ó if you extrapolate into the 21st century ó they become peacekeepers. The scene where the Marines all cheer the pointless ìApocalypse Nowî carnage is initially disturbing but ultimately sad. There is no ìRide of the Valkyrieî for these guys; they donít even get their own war song, as a jarhead later suggests. Itís a Hollywood movie reminding us that reality is rarely as exciting as a Hollywood movie.
9. A big man shows a big appetite and a bigger heart
Vince Vaughn eats breakfast in ìWedding Crashers.î
Vince Vaughn is a big bear of a man whose movie role is to encourage the leading man to do something crazy. He encourages Jon Favreau to go after women in ìSwingersî and Luke Wilson to start a middle-aged fraternity in ìOld School,î but he canít convince Owen Wilson to give up on love in ìWedding Crashers.î Maybe thatís why heís never been funnier. Critics focused on the glorious montage of wedding crashing that opens the film but Iím choosing the breakfast scene where Jeremy (Vaughn) is convinced by John (Wilson) to spend another day at the Cleary estate. Jeremy has just been violated twice by a brother-sister combo but he agrees to stay for his friend. Even so, he refuses to sit with him at the breakfast nook. He piles food on his plate and moves to the counter.
John (grateful): ìI love you, Jeremy.î
Jeremy (mouth full of food): ìI love you, too.î
Itís the second-best male love story of the year.
8. Taking over the table
Terrence Howard doesnít drift away in ìHustle & Flow.î
Despite the chasm of ethnic, cultural and legal differences between us, there are few 2005 film characters with whom I identified more than DJay, Terrence Howardís down-on-his-luck, desperate Memphis pimp. Itís part of the human condition, particularly when you reach middle age, to be dissatisfied with where you are. You look around. Is this it? How did I get here? And how can I get there before itís too late? Howard embodies this desperation; it sears in his eyes. In a movie full of great scenes, acting and dialogue (ìYou Mormons are some brave mother f----ersî), the turning point occurs when DJay finally gets to sit at the table of visiting hip-hop impresario Skinny Black (Ludacris). Initially celebrated for his weed, DJay is quickly dismissed and forgotten and you can feel him drift away. He could stand up and disappear and no one would notice, and you think thatís what heíll do because thatís what youíve done. Instead he takes over the table by calmly and respectfully telling truth to power. Michael Corleone would be proud.
7. Stacy? Stacy who?
Emile Hirsch makes his feelings known in ìLords of Dogtown.î
So youíre a young punk living in 1970s Venice, Calif., the ghetto by the ocean, and while youíre enjoying life with friends, surfing and skateboarding, and while the skateboarding thing seems to be taking off, your home life sucks. Your momís boyfriend split on her. Now she works nights at a sweatshop and it tears you up, and one morning you take a kitchen knife and stab the surfboard her ex left you. More and more, you donít give a crap. So when youíre hanging out on the front porch of a party and your friend Stacy leaves his girlfriend Kathy (Nikki Reed) unattended on the lawn, and Jimi Hendrixís ìFireî starts playing, you swoop down and dance around her, part-madman, part-Indian, part-air-guitar player. The dance is impromptu and goofy and sexual and it entices her away from the lawn, away from the party, away from Stacy. It encompasses the crazy, pent-up sexual energy of adolescence. If only more of the movie had been like it.
6. Father and son
Vincent DíOnofrio reminds us to embrace the everyday in ìThumbsucker.î
Three of the most-overlooked movies of the year (ìJarhead,î ìKiss Kiss Bang Bangî and ìThumbsuckerî) work within well-established formulas (war, noir, coming-of-age), but go in unexpected directions. Here, high schooler Justin Cobb isnít concentrating in class. Ritalin is suggested and you think the boy will balk. No. He wants to take it; he wants to be someone other than he is. Who doesnít? Adventures and misadventures follow. Heís estranged from his dad in an ordinary way. Mike Cobb (Vincent DíOnofrio) probably sees in his thumbsucking son someone he didnít expect or want, while Justin (Lou Taylor Pucci) probably sees in his father ó a sporting-goods store manager ó someone he doesnít want to be. But near the end of the film, in the fatherís office, as the boy is getting ready for college, they connect a little. The connection is mostly in looks and pauses and things unsaid. Then the father says, ìI was just getting used to you.î Itís a beautiful, bittersweet line that goes beyond fathers and sons. It encourages us to embrace the everyday because the everyday always goes.
5. ìHi, Daddy.î
Eric Bana talks to his daughter in ìMunich.î
Along with the main story ó five Mossad agents hunting down the 11 Palestinians responsible for killing Israeli athletes in the 1972 Olympics ó we get glimpses into the relationship of Mossad agent Avner (Eric Bana) and his wife, Daphna (the beautiful Israeli actress Ayelet Zurer). After the birth of their daughter, his romanticism and her cynicism clash:
Daphna: Israelís our home.
Avner: Youíre the only home I know.
Daphna (laughs): Thatís so corny.
Avner (sincere): What ó itís not easy for me to say.
But he goes on his mission and we see what he does and how it changes him. Later he speaks to his wife by phone and she puts their daughter on the line. She speaks. You expect him to talk baby-talk back. Instead his face crumples in anguish, and in that moment you realize all that heís missed and the toll that is being exacted. Forget the quibbling; ìMunichî is the best movie of the year.
4. All employees must wash their hands
Timothy Treadwell touches what he will become in ìGrizzly Manî
Iíd seen pictures of Timothy Treadwell, the titular ìGrizzly Manî in Werner Herzogís disturbing documentary, and he certainly looked the part: rugged, blonde hair tied in a bandana. But when he first speaks youíre taken aback. His voice is high and babyish. You would expect someone who treats nature with caution and respect but this guy treats it like kitsch. At one point he even films a bear going to the bathroom, and then, as your mind is shouting ìNo!î he reaches out and pats the gigantic stool. ìThis came from inside her,î he says in his lovey-dovey voice. And thatís when you know. What Treadwell feels is beyond kitsch. Itís beyond love. Itís a step into insanity. I love you so much that I love your crap because it came from inside you. When you're this consumed by love, you want to be consumed by your love. Horrifically, Treadwell got his wish.
3. The Axe Gang cometh
Stephen Chow introduces us to his crazy world in ìKung Fu Hustle.î
Picking one scene from this film is like picking a chocolate from a box of Godivas ó you canít go wrong ó so Iíll just choose the scene that made me realize what a dream-like, stylized treat I was in for. The film opens as the notorious Crocodile Gang of 1930s Shanghai beats the chief of police; then they waltz out of the station. Itís twilight and the streets are empty. They wonder where the car is. Silence. The gang leader gets a whiff of something bad and tries to go back, but the station doors and windows close, one by one, and when he turns his head again, as in a nightmare, here comes the rival Axe Gang down the street, dressed in ìReservoir Dogî suits and holding, yes, axes. Before the Axe Gang leader dispatches the Crocodile Gang leader, he does a little dance, like Michael Madsen in ìReservoir Dogs.î People who accuse Quentin Tarantino of stealing from Hong Kong cinema donít get it. Thereís no stealing in movies, only borrowing. In ìKung Fu Hustle,î Stephen Chows borrows from ìReservoir Dogs,î ìThe Godfather,î ìThe Shining,î ìSilence of the Lambs,î Looney Tunes cartoons and countless martial arts flicks, and itís still the most original movie of the year.
2. Love stinks
Heath Ledger canít punch his way out in ìBrokeback Mountainî
In typical Hollywood love stories, violence often turns to passion. Here, because the passion is forbidden and unnamed, it often turns to violence ó both externally and internally. After their affair on Brokeback Mountain, Jack (Jake Gyllenhaal) and Ennis (Heath Ledger) bid farewell to each other. Life is already dragging them in different directions and they donít resist the pull, although Jack looks forlorn as he drives away, watching in his rearview mirror as Ennis walks down the road and seemingly out of his life. And Ennis? Heís the quintessential cowboy: taciturn, emotionless. Until he ducks into an alleyway to... Vomit? Cry? Scream? All three? He punches a brick wall. This awful thing is inside him and he wants it out. Anyone whoís been torn away from their love can identify. Itís the most powerful, universal moment in the yearís most perfect movie.
1. Tap tap... Tap tap...
Mark Zupan gives a fellow quadriplegic a reason to live in ìMurderball.î
Besides filming the characters and stories that grow out of the sport of full-contact wheelchair rugby ó notably American champ Joe Soares defecting to coach the Canadian team ó filmmakers Henry Alex Rubin and Dana Adam Shapiro also follow Keith Cavill, recently injured in a daredevil motorcycle accident, as he recovers in a hospital and returns home. In his bedroom and newly modified bathroom, the permanence of his condition sinks in, and he sinks into depression. Until, that is, he meets Mark Zupan, the poster-boy for ìMurderballî and one tough little S.O.B. (heís got something about James Cagneyís energy about him). Between international competitions, Zupan gives a talk to interested quadriplegics and brings along a rugby wheelchair ó designed for action and contact and mayhem. Cavill gets into it. They only have one such wheelchair so he canít slam into anyone else, but the desire is there; you can tell heís itching to do it. Instead he merely bumps into another wheelchair. Tap tap. Tap tap. In that moment, as Zupan watches with pride in the background, you see a life being reborn.

The 5 Funniest Lines From The Lonely Island's "YOLO" Skit
Over the weekend, Kendrick Lamar got his wish and made an appearance at the legendary Studio 8H inside New York City's 30 Rock. The Compton, California rapper joined forces with Adam Levine and comedy trio The Lonely Island for another hilarious digital short. Nowadays, the only parts of NBC's Saturday Night Live worth watching are the digital shorts. If it doesn't star Andy Samberg and it's not pre-recorded then no thanks.
Kiv, Jorm and Samberg returned to SNL to debut their new song, "YOLO," a cautionary ditty that featured Maroon 5's Adam Levine on the hook. With the guys not wanting to cut your time short since their epic 100th digital short aired, we decided to break down the 5 Funniest Lines From The Lonely Island's "YOLO" Skit.

Lil Wayne on Seizures: I Just Go to Sleep and Wake Up in the Hospitalby Free Britney at . Comments
Lil Wayne, who has battled a serious health condition in recent months, says he can't feel seizures come on and doesn't feel anything when they do.
The rap star was hospitalized after an epileptic seizure episode that nearly killed him for a week this March, and then again for a day in late April.
How does it keep happening? For one thing, he doesn't see it coming at all.
Weezy opened up to MTV's RapFix Live on Wednesday about it, saying:
"I go to sleep and wake up in the hospital. I don't feel anything."
The 30-year-old star added that he has no recollection, either.
"[There's] no warning, no nothing. I don't feel sick," he said, though he acknowledges he gets headaches "real bad ... I just hope it stops happening."
He also says this has been more common than y'all may realize.
"The bad news is I'm an epileptic, I'm prone to seizures," he said. "Like, this isn't my first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, or seventh seizure."
"I've had a bunch of seizures, y'all just never hear about them."
"But this time it got real bad 'cause I had like three of them in a row, and on the third one, my heart rate went down to like 30 percent," he continued.
"Basically, I could've died, so that is why it was so serious. But the reason being for the seizures is just plain stress, no rest, overworking myself."
And no more sizzurp, hoepfully.
@Rose how do you know he hasn't given his life to The Lord? The Bible says judge not! How many pastors do we have who have constantly deceived us by portraying a cute picture while things are pretty ugly on the other side? Lets wait for the judgement day! Preachers don't feel the need to be on their knees asking for forgiveness while people like lil tune are constantly asking for forgiveness, it's a tricky situation
Also tell The Lord Jesus you love him. The Lord walked on the earth for 33 1/2 years and he is a God-Man. He can heal you And he will take care of you. As long as you are above ground, The Lord Jesus can help you, but once you die then the judgement. So open to The Lord Jesus now. He loves us all the same.
Everything happens for a reason. The is trying get your attention. "Call on him and say "Oh Lord Jesus" Call at least 5-10 times. Tell him to save you. Tell him you know he die on the cross for you. Let him in. He loves us all. All we have to do is believe.
Lilwayne i hate that u have seizures
Mehn is not Easy.!!! You have to be watch ful man...
well, those beds are fine too.
I,am praying every& everyone & I know that God is our savior in Jesus name,can do all things besides fail,so I am pleading the blood of Jesus over Lil.Wayne& to the rest of the ppl of the world going through something we all standing in the need of prayer& faith& knowing the blood of Jesus never loose it's power so lets,not judge but let's, Love,Live,Laugh because God's Got it in the name of Jesus Christ!Amen........

Chinese food cooking question...what kind of oil?
Not sure if I should post here or on the China Board but what the heck.
The question is what type of oil? In my home cooking, I generally use peanut oil which I buy in large containers from the 99 ranch. But is that really what is authentically used in China or are they using something less expensive?
inquiring minds want to know!
I don't know about China, but in the Chinese restaurant kitchens I've been in (one I worked in, and two belonging to uncles), peanut was the oil of choice.
Definitely peanut oil. It has a high smoking point, which is a must for commercial Chinese cooking.
At home, I'm not sure most stoves get hot enough to even really take advantage of peanut's high smoke point. I found it to be a little too peanuty tasting for me. I use grapeseed oil, which has a pleasant but neutral (does that make sense?) flavor and also a high smoke point.
I love using peanut oil, but my step-son has a nut allgery (I know that the peanut isn't a nut, but like most people with nut allergies, he is also allergic to peanuts) so I can't often use it.
However, one thing you shouldn't get cheap about is oil. You use a relatively small amount and it makes a huge difference in cooking in every way. However, if you're going to buy it in big amounts, make sure you use a lot of it because oil does go rancid.
re: bdumes
Because peanut allergy and the cost, very few chinese restaurants use peanut oil. Most of them use soy oil or some sort of vegetable oil. It is cheap, flavorless and has a high smoking point.
re: cheryl_h
some cheaper, highly refined peanut oils don't have much peanut flavor...if any. On the other hand, the most expensive ones have too much peanut flavor, imo. It takes some trail and error find a the right balance of flavor/price...or dilute some of the powerful stuff with a neutral oil.
Anyway, if you're doing it right, standard veg oil can give you plenty of flavor (see my above post).
Not sure on the exact spelling and it's not authentic, but we like to use Wokin' N' Tossin' Oil... it's got a little bit of a chili kick, garlic, a little sesame oil, but I think it's mostly peanut oil.
chinese peanut oil is usually used in traditional cooking, but it can be expensive here in the united states, so i don't know many people who use peanut oil. chinese peanut oil is different from american peanut oil.
sesame oil is far too expensive and too flavorful to cook with. its usually flavoring, and only a dot or two is necessary
my family (huge on traditional cantonese food) uses corn oil, mazola brand only. this is the type of oil i see in other family members kitchen, sometimes not necessarily mazola brand, but majority is. my mother said corn oil is more flavorful than many of the other oils, it doesn't make your house smell as much (like peanut oil), the oil aromas/smoke don't drift through your house as much, and doesn't coat the walls as much (stoves here are against a painted wall usually, and we cook so much chinese food, that our entire wall and cabinets are saran wraped because the sheen of oil is absolutely disgusting and then we put cardboard up when we cook so that it doesn't stick as much, but we still have a huge layer of oil on our stove wall. she also said peanut oil sticks to your exhaust vents and wears them down quicker.
I use peanut oil, which I buy in large containers at the Super 88 (Boston 99 Ranch equivalent). It's not really expensive if you buy in quantity, and I kind of like the peanutty taste. It is true that it can go rancid if you're not using a lot, but I keep the can in the fridge and decant small amounts into a cruet, and haven't had any trouble. And one of these times, dangit, I'm going to get around to deep-frying.
I purchased a Big Kahuna burner to do wok cooking on so
I decided to buy some peanut oil in bulk. I bought a 4.6
gallon container of peanut oil from Sam's club. Worked
out to be $ 6.30 a gallon. Peanut oil at the grocery was
$ 4.55 for a pint and a half.
I find peanut oil gives me gas. I like to use canola oil. I don't believe in using olive oil because it ruins the taste of chinese food. You want something neutral.
re: phan1
I try not to use sesame oil because, it's so strong, it has a tendency to make every dish taste similar...it can become a bit of a crutch.
I'd never use it in, lets say, a dish in which I have black bean paste because it's just not necessary and would "muddy up" the dish.
Lately, I've only been using sesame oil in chow mein.
For nearly 35 years, the only oil I've seen in my (Chinese) parents' kitchen was Mazola Corn Oil. And the results were always heaven.
re: gloriousfood
Yeah, there's no need to overthink this. My mom always used whatever neutral oil was on sale at the store. I use grapeseed oil now but it hasn't made my Chinese cooking any better.
i really don't like peanut oil, for anything. To me there is definitely a strong peanut odor that interferes with the flavor of the dish.
re: Caesar9
Don't know about most of Asia. It's popular in Japan, especially for deep-frying.
Take this with a grain of salt but a few years ago, I did some reading on the positive associations between risk of lung cancer among Chinese home and professional cooks and exposure to volatile emissions from the heated cooking oils used in stir-frying. As I recall, the oils most often discussed were peanut, safflower, soya and rapeseed, with unrefined Chinese rapeseed oil being considered the most potentially dangerous if used in an insufficiently ventilated kitchen. I don't recall reading any references to rice bran oil, which would imply that it's not -- or wasn't -- widely used, at least among the groups studied.
Peanut oil is my choice for all chinese cooking. Sesame oil is very strong and only used for flavouring, not for actual cooking/frying. I am part Chinese on my mum's side, my mum uses either peanut or vegetable oil (and a lot less than I do, I think when you get old you get really health conscious!)
re: carswell
I bought some of that Lion Globe and, although an excellent product, I thought it was way too peanuty tasting to be used straight as cooking oil...the intense flavor needs to be diluted with a neutral flavored oil. In fact, it's so strong, it could be used as a seasoning after cooking (like sesame oil).
re: jahogna
I use Lion & Globe exclusively for stir frying. The peanut smell/flavor does not come through in the food.
re: jahogna
I just bought some more Lion Globe peanut oil and it's not nearly a strong a peanut flavor as my last bottle. Don't know if they are refining it more now or the flavor consistency just varies...all I know is I made some 5 spice shrimp with it tonight and it turned out absolutely delicious.
Anyway, keep it in the fridge and it'll keep from going rancid (or, rather, you'll use it up before that).
Groundnut oil - Peanut Oil
grapeseed oil
mazola corn oil
Sesame Oil ( not for stir fry)
Vegetable Oil
Canola oil
We have one excellent chinese (szechuan) restaurant nearby...and many very bad ones. By their trash, I saw they use standard vegetable oil...which makes sense, considering peanut oil is relatively expensive.
For a home cook, quality peanut oil is an option for flavor development (although the "extra virgin" stuff is so strong, it needs diluting...or, like sesame oil, used as seasoning). However, restaurants don't need it because they deal in such volume, their re-used vegetable fry oil is saturated with it's own wonderfully unique flavor.
Try deep-frying meat or fish and asian spices in about 2 cups regular vegetable oil and re-use it in all your stir frys. Remember, this oil should be well strained/filtered and refrigerated to not spoil.
Lots of folks there use peanut oil. It's even given as a gift at Chinese New Year. Having lived and worked there for several years, no kitchen was "complete" without a big thing of peanut oil.
Here in the states, however, I grew up using Corn oil.

Charlie Brown's Steakhouse closes 13 N.J. restaurants
It seems more and more restaurants are closing. Business must be bad all over.I was never a fan of these restaurants but I fell badly for all of the employees who are losing their jobs.
re: eleeper
Only 1 diner in my area has a salad "bar" if you could call it that.
There's still Ruby Tuesdays. :)
re: equal_Mark
Oh good. Not the Hamilton one:) I actually like Charlie Brown's quite a bit, despite its reputation as a senior citizen mecca and it being a chain restaurant. When I'm watching what I'm eating, between the salad bar and the grilled steak/chicken choices, I can pretty much tailor my meal to what I need while my dining companions indulge. It's probably my favorite chain restaurant (out of the very few that I enjoy), now that I think about it.
re: equal_Mark
I thought the Matawan location is quite crowded the few times I had been there.
Sad sad sad. Yeah it's a chain and the food is nothing to rave about, but it was the only decent place in Highland Park to grab a drink, hang out at the bar and then walk home. Also (and I can't believe I'm admitting this) they serve a slice of the best non-frou-frou chocolate cake ever. The cake to frosting ratio is perfect and the entire outside is covered in mini chocolate chips. I wish I knew where they get it from.
re: sleuthy
My husband and I went to the Matawan charlie brown's on our first date almost 15 years ago! We'll have to revisit it before it closes. I still love the salad bar, and completely agree with Heatherb about their healthier choices.
The Asbury Park Press has reported that the Lacey and Tinton Falls locations have closed as well.
re: jfedorko
They closed 9 more today, five of which are in NJ:
The company that owns Charlie Brown's Steakhouses quietly closed at least nine more restaurants in the tri-state area today, adding to the 20 eateries it abruptly shuttered earlier this week and stirring anger among workers and customers who say they received little or no warning.
In the second wave of closings to hit the 40-year-old chain this week, five New Jersey restaurants were closed today in East Windsor, Eatontown, Fairfield, Forked River and Woodbridge, in addition to four locations in New York and Pennsylvania.
The closings shrink the popular family chain to 29 locations, nearly half of what it had at the start of the week. Unlike Monday, when the company announced the first wave of closures, there was no official announcement today. However, employees who answered the phone at each of the five New Jersey locations confirmed they had closed.

re: goodhealthgourmet
The Lakewood location on Rt 70 is always packed with people waiting outside....Hmmmmm? wonder if this will be a chain reaction affecting many of the other chain restaurants that have popped up all over?
re: Tapas52
Why oh WHY couldn't it be Applebees? If ever a chain deserved a rash of unexpected closings ...
re: Heatherb
Exactly, East Windsor location is always packed when I go there also. If CB is actually closing even with decent amount of business, how will other restaurant (chain or not) survive...This is almost unbelievable.
Wonder if the problems is caused by the parent company mismanaging their finances.
re: wereboar
Steak and Ale was exceptional!
re: tommy
sis & I went to the Route 35 Steak & Ale location a few years (or so?) ago, and it was a nice throwback to earlier times.... the place had character !!
That might have been the last NJ location to close??? (it was around Middletown, NJ)
I also remember the one in Union, (now a Famous Dave's) ....
and Ramsey area....
re: ellen4441
All the S&As closed when Bennigan's (the parent) went belly up a few years ago. One day they were thriving, the next (literally) they were all closed.
re: cantkick
interesting, tnx , cantkick !
re: ellen4441
Actually, S & A Restaurant Corporation originally owned and operated both Steak & Ale and Bennigan's until the 90's, when S & A Restaurant Corp, .... with both Steak & Ale and Bennigan's, were sold to Metromedia...and S & A Restaurant Corp became a subsidiary.

11 Kettle Creek Rd, Toms River, NJ 08753
This morning I saw a sign on the Charlie Brown's building in Highland Park that said "New Restaurant Coming Soon".
re: menton1
I had such a mediocre burger at the Waretown/Forked River NJ location a few years back....
...then , like an idiot , I went back and ended up with a too small piece of prime rib, (like they were measuring it exactly to the ounce), and not all that gr8, anyway...
And , then I realized that all the old timers sitting near me had coupons for a "complete prime rib dinner"....(guess I also got grouped into that category, and received the "coupon" sized portion, lol ).....
It sure seemed like they had to ADVERTISE real heavy, with all those COUPONS in the Sunday paper circulars ...(reminded me of a "Stuart Anderson's Black Angus", which is a chain in Southern Cal...)
Yes, past it's prime !!
nice atmosphere , tho !
nice salad bar, except the bread often was stale, cuz it was exposed to the "elements"....
yes, a "glorified diner", good choice of words, menton1....
re: ellen4441
Here's another facet of the overall operation:
re: equal_Mark
The Lakewood location is still do well ,but you can signs that the $ is not there ,no fish in the big fish tank ,limited # of booze bottles @ the bar and now some old brands not being replaced.. The intirior is dingy and needs a new rug or at least a good cleaning !
Is the end near ??
re: equal_Mark
It's not EZ finding a tomato that UGLY !! How did they manage to do that, lol ???
(espescially during prime time NJ tomato season ...)
re: ellen4441
That's the norm at restaurants and delis rather than the exception, unfortunately.
re: Foody4life
And thanks to supermarkets or small markets.
re: Foody4life
wow, what a shame ....
The Charlie Browns Scotch Plains is still going strong, completely renovated a few years ago, the place is packed on Friday and Saturday nights and the other nights are busy also.....I stopped in for a drink recently on a Tuesday, and the rooms were almost full.

re: LEOFONT
"The Charlie Browns Scotch Plains is still going strong"
I'm glad to read your post. I think low cost chains meet a real need for affordable dining. Those of us still fortunate to be able to dine in pricier establishments should be sensitive to the many who have suffered a drastic downward change of lifestyle. I think it's great that people, espicially the senior population, can still enjoy the pleasure of an affordable meal out, be it an Olive Garden, Ruby Tuesdays, or any other value priced restaurant. I'm sure Charlie Browns will be missed more for it's affordability than for it's food.

re: Tay
Well, an add-on to that is that, unlike with many other low-cost chains, it is very easy to eat healthy at Charlie Brown's. Whenever I have been on a diet, that has been my go-to restaurant when people want to go out to dinner on the cheap. It's one of the few places where my diabetic mother knows she will be able to choose from an array of reasonably healthy foods. Yes, they have their greasy bomb dishes, but it's just as easy to eat healthy there.
re: menton1
A low-cost owner-operated steakhouse??? Please, do tell!!
re: jfedorko
ok, here we go !! I'm telling ! Well, it IS owner operated, even tho it's a franchise..
It IS the GOLDEN CORRAL ! (buffet)
REAL GOOD charbroiled steaks right off the charbroiler grill ...!
$10.79 for dinner, plus $1.99 for beverage...
new location just opened 3 weeks ago in my Atlantic City area...
1 mile away from my condo...Egg Harbor Township, NJ
hectic atmosphere, but real decent..
re: jfedorko
Sure, a great steakhouse serving aged steak isn't cheap. But a steak comparable to the crap they use at CB's is easy to find at a family-run joint.
re: menton1
one sever @ CB Lakewood has the brass to say that there filet mignon is the same served @ Ruth's Chris . are they kidding ... There are NO good steakhouses in Ocean county and Long Horn is the only hope for a good piece of meat ..!
re: big1515
What makes you think it wasn't the same grade and even from the same supplier?
re: big1515
How was the taste different? If it's a matter of seasoning and cooking process, which I can totally see, I don't think one can make any determinations as to the beef's source.
Price wouldn't be an indicator, either.
re: big1515
I'm not sure I follow. Can you explain?
re: big1515
Luger is # one because it is expensive? LOL. Sounds like you're conflating price with "quality," which I'm sure plenty of restaurants would appreciate.
But this is all a red herring, since we were discussing tenderloin, which of course is different than porterhouse.
re: menton1
Well if Capital Grille is more expensive than Luger, it has to be better.
And since it spells "grill" with an "e" it must be fancy.
re: jfedorko
I dine at CBs a few times a year & I can't remember the last time I've had a bad meal there. For dinner, I always have the prime rib which is tender and tasty without fail. I prepare rib roast several times a year and take the trouble to age the roast so I'm particular when it comes to rib roast. My only carp is that their "rare" is closer to medium-rare which is quite common in restaurants. When Ellen4441 complains about the rib roast, I'm thinking she must have the worst luck in the world. And if she got the small cut, perhaps she didn't specify the queen or cowboy cut when she ordered.
The salad is bar has great variety & good quality. Last summer, they served lobster rolls & lobster melt sandwiches at lunch which were very good at more than reasonable prices.
I haven't been there since the bankruptcy filing so maybe food quality has changed. And maybe I've just ordered the right things - all restaurants do some things better than others. If an older crowd bothers you, don't go.
And Tommy is probably right - the filet mignon at Ruth Chris is not prime. Check their menu on-line if you don't believe. Doesn't say prime like all the other cuts so most likely choice - same as CB.
As for chains vs local - I generally prefer local (CB is pretty much an exception) but don't forget that locals work at chains.
re: Zestme
I hear ya, Zestme, my luck was probably bad that night, regarding that small cut of prime rib ..(and normally, I don't order the smallest cut on the menu; guess I should've kept up with my policy, lol )
Did'nt mean to sound harsh about the older crowd ; guess I got resentful they were so heavily "couponed", lol, getting everything from soup to nuts for the same price I paid for just my meat & salad bar...
and meanwhile, I was'nt prepared ....(no coupons)...
And , yes, you're right, Ruth Chris's FILET is NOT prime ...
I've been to there a good amount of times over the years, & seem to enjoy it less about every time....
My fav. high end steak house lately is Flemings, but my nearest one is in Marlton, out by Cherry Hill ... loved the charbroiled flavor, & their onion soup was
fantastic, too ...
re: ellen4441
The ONLY good/real steakhouse in Mon/ ocean is Brennen's in Nepune City .
re: big1515
wow, I'm gonna try BRENNAN'S! never been...
are the steaks CHARBROILED ???? I like deep charbroiled, lots of grill lines, and good crust, thanks !!
I am heading up to central Jersey tomorrow, and may just make a pit stop there!
re: ellen4441
Their website makes no mention of the grade or aging process. I suspect these are supermarket quality steaks.
And since the prices are so low it's probably not a notable steak experience.
re: tommy
good points, tommy, I'm not going to rush there so quick now, lol ..
Actually, I tried making a pit stop today for an Italian Hot Dog on my way from AC area to my sis's near Freehold..
(well , I overshot Freehold, and got off at exit 117 to go to Jersey Joe's Italian Hot Dogs in Fort Monmouth ....
was there once before, and I liked it a lot, and the place, and the owner had character) ..(but no dice this time, as the "closed" sign was already up at 320 pm.... ) (supposed to be open till 4 pm today, monday, but I guess biz was slow, and he had no idea a renowned Chowhounder/Roadfood/Yelp gal was coming in , lol .....
Tomorrow, I will go to JOSE TEJAS, Woodbridge, for some real good STEAK FAJITAS... (their filet mignon version ones are amazing !!!! the "cadillac fajitas",as they call them..) (the regular steak ones are real good too ..
Well, we could almost count this as a steakhouse, lol !!!
Jersey Joe's
712 Port Monmouth Rd, Port Monmouth, NJ 07758
re: ellen4441
Try Bennen's .The prices are right and you get what you pay for .. I know of no better In monmouth or Ocean Co..The Manhattan Steakhouse (Ocean Twp )was the best but it is gone !
Manhattan Steakhouse
2105 State Route 35 Ste A, Oakhurst, NJ 07755
re: big1515
It seems to me that the Shipwreck in Point Pleasant Beach is serving better quality beef than Brennen's.

text: So it's ok for companies to invest millions of dollars of shareholders money into developing games that may fail, suck or even not make it to release. I have donated $350 of my money towards SC, as an avid gamer it just ment not buying 3-4 releases of the repetative franchise drool. The development team from SC are actively listening to and embracing both suggestions and issues raised by the gaming community durring development. I think everyone that has supported SC understands that the final game will not meet every idealogical expectation but at least they are actively trying to make the best game possible. I did not support this game because someone told me to do it, it was because there have been no great space sims recently and if anyone is capable of changing that it is Chris Roberts. Space Sims seem to be a bit of a niche market so large game manufactures seem to avoid substantial funding towards them, I also know that the money I donate to SC will largely go towards the game development rather than large advertising campaigns. I'm sick of being told what I want by game distributors, this is my way of telling them where they need to go.

JOIN THE FREE QUIT YOUR JOB 90-DAY CHALLENGE – STARTS JUNE 1ST (click here)
I'm so often asked for my top trick for moving forward. Although there is no magic pill (everyone's hot button is different), being broke is a MAJOR motivator. My go to recipe for always moving forward is a good one — breadcrumbs and bananas.
Today, I recalled a time when my honey and I had a spat over how much time I was spending on my business and away from the family. The morning after, I was feeling particularly vulnerable and teetering between a "screw-that" stance and a victim mentality, "no one understands what I do".
I decided that I wanted my honey on my side and so I planned a special dinner of his favorite meatloaf and corn casserole (my corn casserole recipe is better than makeup sex). I felt empowered to continue moving forward and focus on the positive things he pointed out the night before rather than the ones that stung.
After dropping my daughter off at school, I went for my daily coffee run and stopped at the supermarket to pick up one last ingredient I needed to make his favorite meatloaf (dad's recipe calls for 1 cup of breadcrumbs). While I was there I would also pick-up some bananas for my daughter to snack on over the weekend.
In my mind, I was thinking of all the things I wanted to do today to be productive and keep my thoughts away from last night's spat. I zoomed around the market, basket in hand, of course picking up a little something for dessert. I get to the self-check out with breadcrumbs, bananas and tres leche cake….$9.45. I swiped my card and the bright red light above me starts flashing. I paused…had I won the Supermarket Sweaps?!?!
The automated voice comes on and says ever so politely, "your payment method has been declined." My heart sank. My eyes immediately welled up with tears and out I walked as quickly as I could without my breadcrumbs or bananas.
Now, it could have been the universe telling me to go on a diet – but more likely it was the push I needed to keep charging forward.
As I sat in my car in the parking lot, I wept. $9.45. I didn't have $9.45. I can still recall the man collecting the carts from the parking lot looking at me through the windshield.
When I caught him looking at me I wondered what he might be thinking, "this poor lady is down and out". That picture rattled me more than not having the 9 bucks in my bank account. I had never considered myself down or out and I wasn't now either.
You see although I had a momentary break-down it was those tears that were the primal instinct I needed to fuel my fire. I never wanted to be without breadcrumbs and bananas ever again. I never wanted a stranger to witness my tears of frustration and anger again. I never wanted to be without $9.45 ever again. So, I wiped my eyes, fixed my mascara in the mirror, took a deep breath and backed out of the parking space.
On the way home, I thought of all of the things my daughter had aside from her bananas. She had me to come home to, a loving and active mother, a safe home and teachers and friends she loved. That afternoon when she came home we made cupcakes together – she was never the wiser that her bananas never made it home.
So, yes, being broke sucked, big time. But there were endless reasons to be happy and to feel loved. And it was because those breadcrumbs and bananas didn't make it home I charged forward with my purpose in life and have begun living a life I am passionate about.
Being broke is temporary IF you keep your eye on the goal, keep your faith and keep your intentions pure. Remember that your parents and grandparents probably gave you a spectacular childhood and upbringing with less than you have now. You are a product of hardworking people and your family depends on you to wipe your eyes and back out of that parking space with an undying desire to make it!
Tonight, in honor of every entrepreneur's bank account that sits in the red – I am offering you a morsel of my meatloaf. If you can't order out tonight because your bank account doesn't allow for it – make something special and share it with the people that love you – it really is more important than $9.45.
With love and breadcrumbs,

"one for jack" by byron coley
"one for jack" jack rose was one of those guys with whom one feels an immediate bond he wasn't a physical giant or anything but he had an immense presence something, perhaps, more spectral than tangible which filled a room easily enveloping you in a kind of bear hug that could seem either threatening or comforting depending on the look in jack's eyes and on [...]

Applying the Concept of Operational Conservation Theory to Problems of Audio Restoration and Archiving Practice
In the present context, Operational Conservation Theory regards a sound recording as a provider of input (information or stimulus) for present and future human use. It is proven how any restoration or archiving activity is a selection from the total amount of information or stimulus that a recording may give a present-day user. Only those features which have been consciously selected according to the purpose can consistently be made available to future users. For every proposed preservation policy the consequences may be objectively evaluated before adopting or rejecting it. By lifting the responsibility of choice, the archive actually enables a greater chance of preservation. Operational Conservation Theory merges a positivist approach with the behaviorist concept of Stimulus-Response (SR) and fundamental information science. This is a reasonable approach when we are confronted with the transfer of signals representing real or constructed events.

NEW ORLEANS, La. (AP) - The Interior Department is selling a new duck stamp envelope to raise money for conservation in the aftermath of the Gulf oil spill.
Duck stamps are more formally known as the Federal Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation stamp. They are pictorial stamps that can be bought in order to help with wetland conservation. 98 cents of every dollar made goes to the purchase or lease of wetland habitat in protection for the National Wildlife Refuge System.
All migratory bird hunters must buy a duck stamp along with state licenses and permits.
The new duck stamp envelopes were unveiled Tuesday. They feature a silk rendering of a photograph of St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge on the Gulf Coast of Florida, as well as the 2010-2011 federal duck stamp.
They sell for $25, ten dollars more than a regular duck stamp. The extra ten dollars will be used to buy land for national wildlife refuges on the Gulf Coast.

Assuming that I ended up with 1/2 lb of apple mush, I was using a much lower ratio of flour and sugar to apple than Euriol did. >>> Thanks for your input, but how much sugar? I'm afraid it didn't come through on this end. Did you use a white sugar? Or a brownish/turbinado type? This is a case where I think the latter might be preferred but no evidence for this other than taste. <<< It came out too much like applesauce with a cooked crust for my taste--not as good as my usual Lente Frytoures. At the end I added more flour, which made it a bit better. >>> So you think it should have less moisture? Or more crust/bread compared to the fruit portion? Looking though most of the apple fritters saved in the Florilegium they seem to be done with apple chunks or slices and not with apple mush or apple sauce. This is the only one that seems to be from those. Hardly a comprehensive survey, though. Stefan -------- THLord Stefan li Rous Barony of Bryn Gwlad Kingdom of Ansteorra Mark S.

text: Shame is the difference between charity and entitlement by John Hayward 13 Jul 2013 View Discussion Share This: In response to Whatever Happened To The Concept Of Shame? : I've long been fascinated by the way our society has lost its appreciation for both humility and shame. We don't even really understand the meaning of the terms any more. Try asking a young person, particularly around high-school age, what they think either of those words mean. Humility is a virtue, and shame is a vital force for cultivating that virtue. Shame is a vital component of responsibility. As in the case of "Cinderella Man," where Braddock felt shame because he couldn't attend to the vital responsibility of caring for his family. The modern viewer wants to give the man a hug and tell him it's foolish to feel ashamed, because it's not his fault, and he's doing the best he can. But so great was his sense of honor and responsibility that he still felt shame over his predicament... which he not only overcame, but gloriously triumphed over. I wonder what the average modern welfare dependent thinks about the notion of repaying the people for their generosity, and not just by contenting themselves that later prosperity means they'll pay plenty in taxes. Shame is the vital difference between charity and entitlement. It's also the most powerful force for keeping dependency temporary. The Left embarked on a century-long crusade to remove all sense of shame from government handouts, and spread those subsidies far into what used to be known as the "middle class." It won't just be poor people receiving those ObamaCare subsidies, even after the Administration gets its act together and stops running the program on the honor system. The result is permanent dependency, which the many of the recipients view as their personal property. And we're not just talking about impoverished people who would have trouble feeding their kids without government assistance. When the Makers have also become hooked on direct government subsidies, who are they to lecture the Takers about turning the social safety net into a hammock? In contrast, the sense of shame remains a healthy component of private charity, especially religious charities. That doesn't mean the people providing the charity want the beneficiaries to feel bad about themselves - quite the contrary. I've worked with such charities, and found nothing but love and respect for the people they were trying to help. It means the beneficiaries are expected to take responsibility for themselves. The charitable are not interested in subsidizing a lifetime of sloth or alcoholism. Sometimes I contemplate the far greater efficiency and life-affirming results of the best private charities, and wonder if we should divert our public welfare money to them, instead of pouring it down the State-managed sinkholes of fraud and bureaucratic waste... but then I think about what happens to noble private endeavors when the government begins to subsidize them. Shame is the gateway to honor. The good people of a healthy society should be able to feel it on their own, without any hectoring scolds telling them to be ashamed of themselves.
