Evolis Printers
ID Wholesaler has been an excellent vendor to work with over the past few months. Our organization has had no negative interactions with the staff. The timeliness of quotes, orders, processing, and delivery is superb! Ryan, our account manager, needs to have a shout out in this review as he makes the experience excellent. From the beginning Ryan was upfront about cost, assisted us with everything we needed for our ID services, and ensures purchasing is quick and easy.

Evolis Pebble 4 Description
Related Blog Posts
The Evolis Pebble 4 ID card printer has been discontinued, and has been replaced with the next generation Evolis Zenius Expert ID card printer.
Please see the Supplies tab for Evolis Pebble 4-specific supplies and replacement parts. Additionally, if you are looking for user manuals, support, or downloads, please see the Support & Downloads tab for more information.
The Evolis Pebble 4 single-sided printer offers precise image definition and quality with the technology options you need - all combined into one compact solution.
Product Features
- Sleek and powerful design
The Evolis Pebble 4 single-sided printer's modern design and aesthetic curves hide an ultra-robust product. The Evolis Pebble printer has the ability to produce 150 full color cards/hour (1000 monochrome cards/hour) with precise image definition and quality. The state-of-the-art printhead and color profile driver tool help you fine tune your colors so that they look as crisp on your cards as they do on-screen.
- Intuitive user-interface
The intuitive driver interface makes the Evolis Pebble printer easy to install and user-friendly. The Print Manager driver tool along with the four-light LED display guide you swiftly through your print jobs via on-screen prompts and notifications. In addition, the Evolis Pebble4 features a clamshell opening that allows easy and fast access to all printer functions, including ribbon installation and routine cleaning.
- Cost effective supplies
The Evolis Pebble4 is equipped with ribbon saver technology for monochrome printing. With this system, you only use the ribbon length that corresponds to the length of the image to be printed. This feature is unique to the Pebble printer and it allows you to double or even triple the capacity of your monochrome ribbons, reducing the cost per card. A half panel color ribbon is also available, and when used properly, may be up to 42% less expensive than the standard color ribbon. It is the perfect solution to printing a color photograph or logo, and black text on a pre-printed card.
- Three year warranty
Evolis is highly committed to the reliability of their card printers. So much so that they have equipped the Evolis Pebble with a leading three year warranty. And, that includes the printhead!
- Optional additional feeder cartridges and manual card feeder
Additional Evolis Pebble4 card feeder cartridges allow you to stock different card backgrounds and/or thicknesses - according to your needs - or to reduce breaks in production by simply changing an empty feeder for a full one. A manual card feeder option is also available - providing the ability to insert cards one by one.
- Optional encoding
The Evolis Pebble is flexible in the way that it provides options for creating feature-rich cards with the use of magnetic stripe (only available with the Ocean Blue model).
- Optional Ethernet connectivity
Add Ethernet to operate your card printing program on multiple PC's through a shared network. (Add Ethernet to your printer: Evolis Pebble4 with Ethernet)
- Optional extended warranty and printer loaner plans
ID Wholesaler's extended warranty plans include toll-free technical support, live chat support, total parts and labor replacement, and fast turn-around on printer repairs. This satisfaction-guaranteed service is handled in-house by our knowledgeable, factory-trained technical support team. Our printer loaner coverage plans provide you with a loaner printer in the event your printer needs to be sent to ID Wholesaler for repair. Printer loaner plans help ensure you won't be without a printer and your card printing can continue uninterrupted. (Add a coverage plan to your printer within the Options tab.)

- Transit / ticketing cards
- Membership / loyalty cards

Animal Crossing New Leaf or Bravely Default?
Animal Crossing New Leaf is a great life simulator which I have played for over 200 hours, and there is still a lot more I can do in the game. It is a very relaxing game, and it is best that play a bit every day, rather than large periods of time in a day.
Bravely Default is also a great game, which I only have a few problems with. These are that some of the voice actors aren't the best choices and it can feel a bit repetitive in one particular part of the game. It has an excellent job system, and the options to brave and default make the game seem a lot different from other JRPGs. There is a lot of content in the game, and even completing the main story and mastering all the jobs will probably take you 80 hours +.
Overall I preferred Animal crossing slightly more, but I think the best way for you to decide is to get the game based on which genre appeals to you more. Whether you prefer life simulators or RPG's you won't be disappointed with either game.

A short walk (approx 10/15 mins) takes you to the neighbouring village of Hisaronu where you will find a wide range of shops, restaurants, bars, clubs and hotels. From Hisaronu you can take a short dolmus ride to Kaya Village (which is also know as the Ghost Town) and is increasingly becoming a popular tourist attraction with it's many restaurants and bars. Olu Deniz is also a short dolmus ride away, here you will find one of the most photographed beaches in Turkey. It boasts a long blue lagoon which is suitable for all ages, there is also a private beach. Olu Deniz is a bit like Hisaronu, in that there are an abundance of restaurants, bars and shops. Fethiye is a 15 minute dolmus ride away and this is a bustling market town with a harbour and lots bars, restaurants, and shops (where you can shop till you drop). There is a Market here every Tuesday where you can gets lots of lovely presents to take back home. From the harbour you can also arrange many numerous boat trips (which is a must). The average temperature in the summer is 30 - 40 c.
Ovacik is quiet and peaceful during the day. It sits up the mountain 1000ft above sea level. Because of this there is normally a cooling breeze which can sometimes give you the impression that is is not as warm as it really is, but can be very welcoming in the hot summer temperatures.There are several small shops nearby for all your food essentials and also several hotels, restaurants and bars where you can get a three course meal at a very reasonable price. The Market is here every Monday. A 10 minute walk will take you to a new water park with 5 slides.

Here you will find every kind of food you could possibly imagine, and the cost again is so economical. There is something for everyone here and you can only feel relaxed and content. From Hisaronu you can book a number of excursions, all which are available at very reasonable prices and most of these include lunch in the price.

"Lovely, comfortable villa"
Lovely apartment on two floors. Ground floor of the villa is owned by someone else but they were very friendly and quiet. We might not have been quiet! The apartment has three great balconies which are nice to have a drink on before you go out and about! Kitchen adequate and has facilities to make food if you would like to and has pots/ pans/ plates and lots of glasses etc. On arrival there was bread/ milk/ water/ butter/ honey and biscuits waiting for us- which was great as we were on a late flight. There are three good sized bedrooms, the top floor bedroom was gorgeous it covers the whole top floor- has its own large bathroom with lovely shower and private balcony. We didn't eat in the villa for evening meals as the area is so reasonibly priced for eating out.
Pool area was very clean and was maintained daily. We stayed late September and a couple of days we had the pool to ourselves- but when other people were around the pool they were very friendly and mainly owned villas on the complex so could give us good tips on places to go. Never struggled to get a sunbed! And you are provided with very comfortable sunlounger covers. Garden area around the pool/ villas is also very pretty. Overall the villa was very clean and had all the facilities we needed.
Hasan's bar on the complex is a good place to get a drink for lounging around the pool and Hasan was also good at giving advice on places to go. He has many contacts for booking resturants/ Turkish Bath etc.
The area of Ovacik is a two minute walk from the apartment. It is fairly small and quiet but has plenty of bars and restaurants. Good place for a cheap breakfast is the Mirage just on the corner. We had a beautiful Turkish meal on our last night just before leaving for the airport at the 'Three Cheers' restaurant a short walk from the apartment on the same road as the Mirage. We wished we had found it earlier as we would have returned. The owner was very friendly, food lovely and very reasonably priced- they give you a huge Turkish bread and dips on arrival- we struggled to eat it between six.
Other great places to go are the Sundial restaurant which is on the hillside overlooking Fethiye where you can watch the sunset in beautiful surroundings. Ask Hasan to book this for you- free return taxi is included. Yengtze restuarant is on the back route walk to Hisaranou- it is owned by an English family and the food was gorgeous- you will need to book a table here as they are often booked up. We would definately recommend having a Turkish bath at the beginning of your holiday- very relaxing and apparently good to prepare your skin for tanning! Not for the shy and retiring type! ha.
Hisaranou is a ten minute walk from the apartment- lots of lively bars and nice restaurants here all reasonably priced. Good shops to buy 'designer' goods. The market isn't great here- people recommended Fethiye market which is on a Tuesday.
Olu Deniz is beautiful and definately worth spending a day by the blue lagoon- also lovely for a meal here if you fancy a change of scenery- a little bit more expensive than Hisaranou/ Ovacik but not overly priced.
Lovely trip is Dalaman/ Turtle Beach includes a boat trip and stop of at Turtle Beach which is a lovely sandy beach/ clear water and was very peaceful at this time of year. Would not recommend the Jeep safari as it was not what it said on the tin- not sure if this was because it was near the end of season as people had recommended it to us and said it was great fun. Be warned most trips include a trip to a carpet or jewellery factory! Carol and Tayfun's sunset boat trip was fab! Watched the sunset, had a lovely meal and then a dance to a variety of music which catered for all of us aged 24- 50 years old.
Only one recommendation to the owners- we only had one key to the apartment and there were six of us/ 3 couples so we had to meet up at a set time to make sure we could get in to the apartment.
This area of Turkey is beautiful and we all had a brilliant holiday and would return to the area and stay in this apartment again! Jackie arranged our transfers from and to the airport which was great- no hassle and a comfortable journey.

- If there was no HIV/AIDS, South Africa would have 4.4 million more people than today, the size of a major city. This significant slow-down in population growth is causing a slow down in economic growth and resulting in social ills, researchers warn.
New data by research organisation South African Institute for Race Relations (SAIRR) show that South Africa should theoretically count 55 million citizens this year. But it only has a population of 50.6 million.
By 2040, the country's population would have been 77.5 million without AIDS – 24.1 million more people than is projected for that year.
"The decrease of population growth has a negative impact on South Africa, because the group most affected by HIV and AIDS is aged between 15 and 49 years, which is the most productive part of the population," explains SAIRR researcher Thuthukani Ndebele of the date published on Jan. 23.
"If this age group continues to die early, we will see an acute social and economic impact throughout the country," he warns. South Africa was quickly losing large chunks of its workforce and skills, which led to loss of productivity.
Economic experts have no doubt that this will slow down economic growth. "An epidemic like this one, that effects a large proportion of the population, has undeniably a negative economic impact," confirms David Hornsby, a researcher of the Department of International Relations at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg. "It limits the amount of educated and skilled people who participate in production, entrepreneurism, innovation and development."
SAIRR further predicts that the total number of people living with HIV/AIDS will reach six million in 2015, which is double the number recorded in 2000. "This should be a serious wake-up call for South Africa. It would be a serious crisis for the country's economic and social development to reach such a high number of HIV infections and related deaths," says Hornsby.
Not only does HIV/AIDS reduce life expectancy and increase mortality, but it is largely responsible for wider social ills such as orphanhood and child-headed households. In 2009, about two million South African children had lost one or both parents, according to United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF).
"Almost a third of South Africa's population, or 31 percent, is under the age of 15 today," highlights UNICEF chief of child survival and development Dr. Siobhan Crowley. "This signifies a serious population imbalance. And the South African government is struggling to provide the support those young people need, in terms of education, social welfare and health services."
The large number of orphans in this age group as well as households led by grandparents have started to create an increased level of dependency on the social welfare system, which demands an ever bigger growing slice of the country's national budget.
South African social welfare organisations confirm persistently increasing levels of destitution due to HIV/AIDS. "The numbers of families in need, people who are unable to meet their most basic needs, are growing continously," cautions Bernice Roeland, director of Cape Town-based non-governmental organisation AIDS Response.
She worries that without a concerted effort to prevent new HIV infections and handle existing infections more effectively, the future burden on South Africa's social welfare system will soon become unbearable.
"Issues like social welfare, health, food security, poverty and housing are all tightly interlinked," says Roeland. "If the long-term investments in our people, especially in our children, are not thorough enough, the social system might eventually collapse."
SAIRR researchers say they are particularly concerned about the increased burden HIV/AIDS will have on the public health system. According to the World Bank, South African spent almost nine percent of its GDP on health in 2009 – almost double the amount than most developed nations. This percentage might increase in the near future even further.
"Nine percent a significant amount. Health budgets might have to increase even further, if governments wants to prevent HIV/AIDS having an even more negative impact on the economy than it already has," says Ndebele, pointing out that because HIV-positive people live longer due to live-saving treatment with antiretroviral (ARV) medication, they also incur large amounts of health care expenditure before their deaths. "AIDS deaths therefore cost government a lot of money. It's not like dying in a car accident," says Ndebele.
But there is also an upside: increased access to ARV treatment does help HIV-positive adults to stay economically active for longer, thus alleviating other costs to the social system.
Experts from research, economic and social sectors therefore all stressed the urgent need to make a bigger effort to prevent new HIV infections – as the only way to effectively reduce the costs of the illness places on society.
Says Ndebele: "South Africa has 0.7 percent of the world population but accounts for about 17 percent of all HIV cases globally. That correlation is worrying and needs to change."

8-8-06 Two Ardmore men have been hospitalized with symptoms of the West Nile Virus. Tests have confirmed that one of the victims has the virus.
Both men are in their 70s. They were hospitalized this week with what doctors call classic symptoms of the West Nile Virus.
Cecil Schroder is in intensive care at mercy memorial hospital. Bill Manner is in ICU in Oklahoma City. Both are showing signs of West Nile, a high fever, intense headache, extreme tiredness, muscle weakness and dizziness.
Both were tested. Cecil's results came back negative, but Bill's were positive.
Because there's no cure, doctors can only treat the symptoms and without the proper care, it could result in death.
But some don't even know they have it. 80 percent of patients show no symptoms. That's why officials urge you to protect yourself by wearing repellent containing DEET and draining items around your home that collect standing water.
Manner is listed in fair condition at mercy hospital in Oklahoma City. Schroder is in stable condition. However, doctors have not determined what's causing his symptoms.

Former Cash Money Records associate Tristan "T Mix" Jones has sued the label for over $2 million in damages for an alleged breach of contract.
The lawsuit was reportedly filed in Louisiana last week.
In a federal lawsuit, Jones claims he signed an exclusive production contract with Cash Money Records in November 2005. In exchange for Jones' exclusive production services, Jones says Cash Money promised to pay production royalties on the suggested retail list price. Jones says Cash Money owes him at least $2.25 million, but has paid him only about $187,000. Jones seeks damages for breach of contract in Federal Court. (Courthouse News Service)
The producer has nearly two years of work found on various Cash Money album releases.
He states his work with the label between 2005 and 2007 yielded more than 40 master recordings included on at least four Cash Money records including Tha Carter 2, Birdman's 2005 solo album Fast Money, and the Wayne/Birdman joint album Like Father Like Son. Among T Mix's production credits is "I Run This," the Lil' Wayne-assisted third single from the 2007 Birdman album 5 * Stunna. (All Hip Hop)
Cash Money Records founders Baby and Slim were recently featured on CNBC's "NEWBOs: The Rise of America's New Black Overclass" documentary.
"You know having money brings on a lot of greed a lot of different type[s] of people but [as] far as the family and us being able to get out the project buy houses for our moms and cars and put money up for our kids," Baby said in a statement. "That was the American Dream. That made me appreciate it more than anything, that I could set a new tone for my children. They don't have to grow up how I grew up." (NPR)
The duo founded Cash Money Records in 1991.
Baby is the co-founder, CEO and a recording artist on the Cash Money label. He is frequently referred to as Lil Wayne's father, but he is more of a surrogate father, having taken the young rapper under his wing and signing him to his label when Wayne was 12. (MTV)

text: 10 Secrets to Seduce a Politician? Et tu, Jane Pratt? by Lisa De Pasquale 6 Aug 2013 View Discussion Share This: When I was in middle school and high school I adored Sassy magazine. It was (ok, slightly) less vapid than Seventeen and other teen magazines. It's founding editor, Jane Pratt, was a hero to a girl like me who wanted to be a writer one day. In addition to the usual dating and fashion spreads, there were career advice columns and features on real issues. Instead of the "101 Tips to Drive Him Wild," one cover story was "Make Colleges Want You Bad." I was too young to know if they had a political bent (I'm sure they did given Pratt's politics). Either way, I didn't care. I loved it and wanted to write for a magazine one day. After Sassy went under (after becoming more like Seventeen, incidentally), Pratt started a new magazine called Jane. If I recall it was billed as Sassy's older, cooler sister. I immediately got a subscription to that one, too. There were the standard "How to Make Him Notice You" articles, but it always struck me as more substantive than magazines like Cosmo or Glamour. Eventually, Jane went under, too. Now Pratt has a website called xoJane. Admittedly, I haven't visited it until today. Via Mediaite I shamelessly clicked on Weiner sexting partner Sydney Leathers' silly new article, "10 Secrets for Seducing a Politician." Before I even read it I felt like my childhood dreams were shattered upon seeing that it was posted on Pratt's website. She was my role model for being an independent, opinionated writer. Now she's giving a forum to a woman gleefully admits to seducing a married man. I won't even get into the contents of the article because the title is enough evidence of its ridiculousness. I wasn't the only reader surprised to see Leathers on the website. Among the comments: But all of this being dragged up on one of my fav sites makes me feel cheap and dirty as a reader. -- I can't decide who I'm more embarrassed for- Sydney Leathers, Anthony Weiner or XOJane? -- UGH. attention Jane pratt....how much did you pay this idiot for this "article". -- Wow. Disappointed this was published here... I should clarify that my main opposition to this article being published is because I feel it is insensitive to Huma. -- I had such high hopes for xojane.com when it started. I feel the same way I did when Sassy became just another teen magazine. Glancing over xoJane's recent article titles like "The 6 Standards I Have for All Porn I View" and "My F*ck Buddy Wants to Pay Me" I don't think I'm the intended audience anymore. I've become the independent, opinionated writer I longed to be while reading Sassy. I'm disappointed that Pratt sees more value in publishing Sydney Leathers' secrets for seducing a married politician than in keeping the readers she used to inspire.

I think the "steam coming out of his ears" comment pretty much tells me they might need to brace themselves for some big penalties.
I think Williams has been told in no uncertain terms, that if he ever wants to coach in the NFL again, he needs to come clean.
In the meantime, via Peter King's twitter:
Still don't think the Saints are screwed?
Saints are about to be on the wrong end of the biggest sanctions in the history of the NFL. I think we all may be underestimating the punishment that's coming...
You'll note that Payton and Loomis are greatly emphasizing the whole "Tom Benson didn't know" line.
Suuuuuuure he didn't :sosp:
I'm really starting to believe he did.

Swindon Hotels - Swindon was once a small, traditional market town, and its history can still be felt in the Old Town area – a pleasingly quaint neighborhood with little courtyards and narrow Victorian lanes, with galleries, restaurants, and bars to explore. It's a side of Swindon that first time visitors might not expect, and on a sunny day the Town Gardens is a place you have to visit, with its glowing green lawns, rippling ponds, old-fashioned bandstand, and the Old Town Bowl, a popular setting for concerts since as far back as the 1930s. Things to see Swindon makes an ideal base for visiting Cotswold Country Park. It's the most popular part of the vast Cotswold Water Park area, featuring two lakes that were created several decades ago and now make a delightful if unlikely place to bask in the sun and enjoy the great outdoors There's an inland beach, opportunities for boating and kayaking. And if you're feeling adventurous you can even have a go at paddle boarding and water zorbing. You can also go for relaxing woodland walks, and if you want more rustic serenity you can also visit the nearby village of Hook. For yet more outdoorsy recreation, Stanton Park stretches for over 74 hectares and features lush woodland and a lake. Back in Swindon itself, you can shop in style at the Swindon Designer Outlet. Based within the lovingly restored Great Western Railway works, it's a triumphant mix of the old and new, featuring all the biggest high street names as well as designer boutiques, selling their wares at massively discounted prices. Hotels in Swindon While there are some grand hotels located in the Wiltshire countryside around Swindon, set within Cotswold manor houses and boasting antique fittings and acres of breathtaking land, the hotels in Swindon itself tend to be of a rather more conventional variety. Swindon hotels encompass the usual chains, some of which do offer prime facilities such as swimming pools and on-site spas, not to mention flat-screen televisions and free WiFi. There is also a good range of humble bed and breakfasts that are ideal for business travelers on a tight budget. Where to stay The town center is largely pedestrianized, meaning that getting around is very quick and easy. And it also makes it well worth booking a Swindon hotel that's centrally located, so don't have to bother with taxis or buses during your stay here. You'll have good access to shops, bars, and restaurants, as well as Swindon Art Gallery, which is renowned for its collection of paintings and sculptures by modern British masters including Henry Moore, Graham Sutherland, LS Lowry, and Paul Nash. In short, there's plenty in Swindon city center to keep any visitor amused over an afternoon and evening. How to get to Swindon enjoys good links with the rest of the country – Swindon Station itself is on the main line that connects Wales with London, so you can get good, frequent connections to the Big Smoke, Bristol, Cardiff, and Swansea. If you're getting here by car, that's easy enough as well, with the M4 the route you need to go along.

Food recommendations for a first time visitor
Going to NOLA in a little over a week. I searched for a few of these topics but wasn't finding what I was looking for.
We'll be staying in the French Quarter, looking to venture out some, but it's our first trip so not looking to go too far afield
I love seafood...and when I get it fresh I'm a pig. I don't like anything fancy...just simple preparations where the meat stands on it's own.
Wanted to get your opinions on the following:
1) Good places for plain ole, cheap shellfish - crawfish, shrimp, oysters, maybe some lobster or crab etc. Could be boiled, could be fried could be fresh...but I'm talking quick serve, simple, maybe even hole in the wall place.
2) Jambalaya...
3) For a non-seafood option - Crepes?
4) Nicer sit down place $20-$30 per plate before tax/tip/drinks...again classic seafood simple preparations with high quality ingredients
5) Cajun/Seafood buffets???
6) how is dining in the casino?
7) Place to buy fresh shellfish to take home...looking for good price/quality ratio
Um, no buffets.
Avoid casino dining at all costs.
Try Casamento's, Acme, Big Fisherman...you won't find lobster here as a rule....need to go North for that.
Go to Central Grocery for a muffaletta.
Try Fiorella's for good fried chicken.
There are a lot of wonderful seafood places in the 20-30$ range...look back at some of the threads and you will have a ton of options...personally I love Mr. B's BBQ shrimp.
Crepes: Muriel's shrimp and goat cheese crepes are a must. Other crepe options at Crepe Nanou, but get there early as it gets very crowded.
Jambalaya: Coops; most people cook this at home, so it is not often found on menus.
Seafood: Galley Seafood, Perino's Boiling Pot, Big Fisherman for take out and go across street to Bulldog for some beers, Mandina's
Nicer options for seafood dishes: Brigtsen's, Galatoire's, GW Fins, Mr.B's, Bourbon House, Redfish Grill
re: edible complex
I agree with your comment on jambalaya 100% (cannot comment on Coops b/c I have not had it). If anyone does have a retaurant jambalaya that I can refer friends to I would be glad to hear of it but you are dead-on in that it is mostly homemade..ceertainly when it is worth shooting it is. I've had dreadful piles of needle-gauge rice with dessicated sausage and God-Knows-What served in Respectable Places.
For boiled seafood, check out the Big Fisherman. You won't go wrong. Or try Frankie and Johnny's. It is a bit of a dive but wonderful just the same. I love the jambalaya at Coop's Place and IMHO is one of their best dishes. Any mid-range to upscale Nola restaurant will have a plethora of seafood dishes. I would try Galatoire's, Brigtsen's, Commander's Palace or Bayona. Perrino's Seafood Market is just a short drive away and has great prices on take home seafood. They will pack with dry ice for the drive/flight home in a shipping container. I get medium sized shrimp for 2.99 a lb there which is a great deal for head on shrimp of this size. The casino dining is passable, but only barely. John Besh's has pretty good steak, but unless you are highly intoxicated and it is 3 a.m., steer away from the buffet. If you can get it for free-fine. If not, would try to stay away. Ruth's Chris at the casino/hotel is not my favorite either, but will work in a pinch. The other location is much better. The Asian restaurant inside the casino is pretty good and we have had a huge meal there for a reasonable price. Some dishes were great, others entirely too seasoned and salty. Best of luck!
There are so many options - how many days are you in; are you renting a car; do you mind walking & are you street savvy; are you a couple - any kids; how are you traveling with the take home Cfood; are you a cocktail person; what truly is your budget.
Seriously you cannot think buffet and a New Orleans meal IMO.
re: savory south
the only buffet I've eaten at is Jazz Fest!
so if there is a fest of interest when you're in town, that can be a great way to try much local fare.
Thanks for the GREAT recommendations....I'll do some more research and narrow it down.
Casino is out...I kind of figured that. Never really done the casino thing and figured it would either be great or completely horrible.
Buffets are out too..I just remember as a kid always travelling to the seaside and finding great seafood buffets. For some reason, I thought if there was a good seafood buffet it'd be in a city like NOLA...but mybe I just need to resign myself to the fact that as a kid all you can eat is good, but here really are no good buffets :-)
A bit more about our travel...going with a couple 30 something friends going for 3-4 days. It's our first time and we're planning to leave the FQ, but not looking to run all over the city...probably a couple focused jaunts outside the FQ area. We're all very street savvy being Chicago natives. All of us are drinkers... True budget is really open, but looking for good values.
re: cpfoutz
you could take the ferry across the river to the Dry Dock for seafood.
not sure if they still do bucket night, which is a huge bucket of boiled/steamed seafood.
call first to be sure.
re: cpfoutz
You will have a great time exploring the Quarter, but also try going Uptown. It's easy to get "stuck" in and around the Quarter if yo are a first time visitor. Taking the St. Charles Streetcar is a fun, cheap, beautiful way to see a different part of the city. There are tons of great restaurants out that way...
Pascal's Manale
Dick and Jenny's
Jacques Imo's
and many more
Thanks to everyone who responded...while we didn't do many of the recommendations on here, it gave me great ideas to start doing searches and narrowing down what I want. Here's a report of what we did....
Thanks to all of you for your advice....
Here's what I did and our thoughts for future travellers:
- Wed night - started on Bourbon Street then went to dinner with a buddy in the Garden District. We were a bit too drunk to remember how good the food was or the name of the place. Then went to Bulldog, which we enjoyed IMMENSELY!!!
Thurs lunch - Cooter Browns - Best. Shrimp. Ever. cheap oysters, great seafood sandwich and a huge beer list to boot. The only bad part of our experiance was an entitled cashier who yelled at us for not leaving a tip in his tip jar. Do we now have to tip cashier's at McDonalds????? What he does is no different.
Thurs. Dinner - Coops - Jambalaya was perfectly spiced but a little overcooked. I'd believe this is the best Jambalaya you can get in a restauraunt and it was good. Just don't think Jambalaya is my thing.
Fri. lunch - Mr. B's - BBQ Shrimp was one of the best meals I've had in my life and those 1.50 drinks helped us nurse our hangover from the night before. I dind't do enough looking into this one so I'll let you learn from our mistake...Mr. Bs is not a casual dining place...dress appropriately. The staff was very gracious despite our not-so-up-to-par dress.
Fri. dinner - Deanies - Portion sizes are HUGE!!!! We were disappointed by the lack of in season seafood and were disappointed it wasn't worthwhile to do the seafood boil...I knew crawfish were out of season but expected crab, the server said we are in the middle of a lull and the bodies are undeveloped. Potatoes were great. Got fried shrimp and oysters...good but certainly not memorable. Cooter Brown beat them hands down.
Thanks to all on this board who provided their insights...I won big points with my buddies for making sure we were fed well!!!
re: cpfoutz
The guys at Cooters have been doing that for years. As I know most of them, their bark is worse than their bite. But they do more than someone at McDonalds, those tips are split with the kitchen staff and they bust ass compared to anyone at a fast food place, and I am willing to bet they don't have any insurance plans like they do at McDonald's.
I just got back from New Orleans on Sunday - hot and humid but the weather is changing, suppose to be cooler and less humid - more fall-like so the weather should really be nice for your visit. This was my first trip back since Katrina. For first time visitors (this may sound like a broken record) I would definitely have a muffalleta from Central Grocery - whole one is ~ 8" diameter so 1/2 a muff is plenty for one person (already cut in half, whole muffs come cut in 1/4) and head to Cafe du Monde for beignets and cafe au lait. Forget about the casino for food - too many great choices out there. Deannie's , Acme and Felix's can have long lines at peak lunch and dinner on Fri. & Sat. so you may want to plan accordingly. All 3 streetcar lines are running (St. Charles, Canal St. & Riverfront) some can be a little crowded with us tourists but at least they run frequently vs. the buses (check http://www.norta.com/ for schedules) For a po'boy I took the Canal St. streetcar up to Parkway Bakery and Tavern, it's on Hagen about 4 blocks from Canal and Jefferson Davis Parkway trolley stop - safe walk, great po'boys and really friendly service (can get crowded at noon time). If you feel like taking a trip up St. Charles to the Riverbend (~40 minutes on the streetcar) I would recommend either Brightsen's or Dante's Kitchen on Dante (across the street from each other) You can have a great dinner at either restaurant and ride the streetcar back to the Quarter - the Garden District will be all lit-up - very pretty view. I had a very good lunch at Lil Dizzy's on Poydras (Camp St.) in the Whitney Hotel - great gumbo and fried chicken. Would also recommend the BBQ shrimp at Mr. B's ( can be messy but worth the "work") and crawfish ettoufe at the Gumbo Shop. Also soft shell crabs have "arrived" so keep a look out on the daily specials for them. Many of the restaurants have websites with menus listed and you can always count on the New Orleans Chowhounds for great tips. Enjoy your visit!

Antonio C
Maybe because of the driver skills but also due to the quality of the car this was a very good transfer
Great. The driver, John, was there with a name board to meet us. He was most friendly and courteous and virtually acted as tour guide for the trip to our hotel giving us an almost complete history of Penang and it's highlights. Filling us in on which buses to catch during our stay, where to eat and where to shop. Fantastic and thanks again John.
i was travelling with 2 other ladies and the pick-up at penang airport was excellent , we were met by a very pleasent chap who handled our luggage and drove in a nice car to our hotel , i have great pleasure in recommending your company to friends and will post on other review websites, thankyou
Garland B
The driver was there to greet us and he was very helpful. Had a wonderful and comfortable ride to hotel, and driver also pointed out points of interest along the way. He was very knowledgeable.
on time and hassle free
Alessandra C
We had a wonderful driver who was like our own private tour guide on the way to the hotel! Pointed out many points of interest in Penang, shopping malls, etc. Wonderful!
Sharon P
Wonderful experience service couldn't have been better the Driver was waiting when we arrived with a very professional sign and gave us lots of information on the way to our accommodation
Transfer worked well for us as three adults with a reasonable amount of luggage.
excellent and prompt
Driver was very helpful.
You were expensive
Mark C
There was nothing wrong with the transfer but it would have been just as easy to get a taxi and almost half the price.
The driver was very unhelpful, and we had difficulty dragging our suitcases out to where he had parked the vehicle on the side of a busy road. He did not help us with the cases even though we are elderly, and had 2 suitcases each to manage.
The driver had at least 2 conversations on the phone whilst driving and we feel that this is a very dangerous practice and against the law in
The van was tatty, smelt strongly of cigarette smoke and had no seat belts.
I would not use your company again.

I requested a car as my wife is disabled. but they sent a mono which she had great difficulty in getting in and out ofm requiring considerable assistance.

Make sure to include the children in the emergency preparedness process.

Renfrow Hardware
188 N. Trade St.
Matthews, NC 28105
(704) 847-4088
Renfrow Hardware is located in Matthews, a suburb of Charlotte. Thomas Renfrow set up shop shortly after the Civil War, when Matthews claimed 200 residents. Today, the hardware, farming and garden supply store services some 30,000 people. Owner David Blackley says residents are woefully unprepared for emergencies. In the event of a power outage, this is the place to be. Attached to every electrical lighting fixture in the store is a fuel lamp. Carbon paper is used for customer receipts when the cash registers have no electricity. The store motto is being prepared, whether it's a flat tire, a back-up heat source for a well house or having a manual can opener in the kitchen drawer. Blackley offers more tips on being prepared for emergencies:
- Keep a bicycle pump in the car trunk to inflate a flat tire
- Learn how to use chain saws and generators before an emergency
- Turn the power off for a day to test back-up plans
- Keep emergency phone numbers written down and available
- Keep matches and a lighter in the emergency kit

A chicken house is a kind of enclosure where the birds are maintained. The inside of the housing have nest boxes for your chickens to put eggs, along with has perches for your chickens to sleep on.
The interior and outside a chicken houses is generally included with content including straw or wood chips. These collect the poultry waste rendering it better to clear. A chicken house would usually have enough ventilation for ventilation helping airing out any smells which will happen. You can visit http://www.e-chickencoopplans.com/ for chicken coop designs.
How to make a chicken coop:
The look: Before you'll get to create a birds house, draw out the design of the kind of coop you will need. It is not just the building that you need to chalk out, but also the colors that you are likely to use on the top and walls of the chicken coop.
The coop shouldn't act as a disruption for your neighborhood if it's clearly visible to your neighbors, or be described as a defacement of the surroundings where you live. Therefore, your chicken house should have an artistic style and have no claims from your neighbors.
Use sound judgment: you must always use your sound judgment when designing a chicken coop. You would be better off in using building materials which will allow you to clean the coop quickly. The entrance-way of your house should open inwards, and it is also often simpler to have sliding doors to make sure that chickens can't turn out to roost in your windows. You need to think of making a ground of your chicken house with item as possible easily hose without many puddles. You can also browse www.chickencoopandruns.com for chicken coop.
Security from Hazardous Elements: Your chicken house needs to be built in such a means that it might protect your chickens from dangerous components including heavy-water, wind, hale, excellent, great situations, etc., and from being eaten or killed by hungry predators.
Your chicken coops must have an adequate drainage system where rain may move out maintaining your house dry. You need to place your chicken house because area where it gets adequate amount of Daylight which will keep the birds warm and dry.

18th Nov: We've switched servers and will be updating the old code over the next couple months, meaning that several things might break. Please report issues here.
main index
My mother is a fish.Chapters probably began during the beginning of story-telling, with one chapter being what the story teller had lined up for the night. A One-Paragraph Chapter is probably what happened when the Story-Teller said, "No, I'm too tired tonight. Maybe tomorrow." but the listeners kept begging him. Sometimes used to separate parts of the plot, sometimes used to give a feeling of in-and-out consciousness (See: Misery), and sometimes used by inexperienced writers who fail to deliver a better-fleshed out story and only have one plot point occur. Experienced writers will usually avoid this, working in the important, if not unrelated, subject into a new chapter that progresses the story at a good pace. Legendary writers (like Stephen King) can use the one paragraph chapter to a good use to better give a certain disconnected feeling in the story. (Or can use it because who cares if you don't like it, it'll be on the best-sellers list just from his name alone.) It's interesting to note that not all one paragraph chapters are short. (Especially in Fan Fic where an entire story can be in one paragraph, if not one sentence.) A paragraph can last as long as it's talking about one subject, technically speaking. Sometimes, a One-Paragraph Chapter can be used to describe a chapter that has more than one paragraph, but only had content enough to fill one paragraph. Filler descriptions, useless dialogue, and off-topic ranting might bloat the chapter, but all in all, plot-related things would fit in one paragraph. The one-paragraph chapter usually leads to a sour taste in the mouth of a reader if they're going for the "One More Chapter Syndrome". Imagine knowing that your favorite book has 26 chapters (thanks to the table of contents), being at chapter 23, and then seeing all of chapter 24 (and even 25) in their entirety on the next two pages.
