Software picks out distinguishing features of cities
If you were an animator who was instructed to "Make a street that looks like it's in Paris," chances are you might not know what to do. Sure, you could occasionally put the Eiffel Tower in the background, but you couldn't do that for every shot. If you were using a new data-mining system developed by Carnegie Mellon University and INRIA/École Normale Superiéure in Paris, however, it would show you what you should include. The software automatically looks through photos taken in various cities, and identifies the recurring visual features unique to each place. Read More
A combined effort between researchers at the Carnegie Mellon University Robotics Institute, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and Google provides users with easy access to 13 years of NASA Landsat imagery of the Earth's surface. The new capability within Google Earth Engine lets users zoom in and out on any spot on the globe, moving back and forth in time between 1999 and 2011. Read More
Children generally love to create art and are fascinated by robots, so what if there was a way for them to turn their art projects into robots? Well, there is. Carnegie Mellon University spin-off company BirdBrain Technologies has introduced the Hummingbird kit, which contains everything kids (or adults) need to add powered movement and interactivity to their dragons, kitties or spaceships.

Driving at night in falling rain or snow can be treacherous, but not just because the asphalt is slippery – visibility is also greatly reduced, as the driver's view of the road ahead is obscured by brightly headlight-lit raindrops or snowflakes. In the future, however, that may not be so much of a problem. A team led by Carnegie Mellon University's Prof. Srinivasa Narasimhan has developed an experimental headlight system that renders most foreground precipitation virtually invisible, while still adequately illuminating the road beyond.

Touché technology detects how you touch
Touch sensitive displays have changed the way we interact with electronic devices everyday, evolving from single to multi-touch displays that can recognize multiple contacts. Now researchers at Disney Research, Pittsburgh, and Carnegie Mellon University have developed a touch sensitive technology called Touché that not only detects if and where someone is touching it, but how they are touching it.

Many drivers would be lost – quite literally – without their in-car navigation systems. When installed in vehicles that some people would say are already overcrowded with instrumentation, however, could such systems be just one visual distraction too many? Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University and AT&T Labs are addressing that concern, by experimenting with a system that conveys navigational cues through vibrations in the steering wheel. Read More
New "Super-Earth" discovered only 22 light years away
An international team of scientists led by Professors Guillem Anglada-Escudé and Paul Butler from the Carnegie Institution for Science in the U.S. has discovered a potentially habitable Super-Earth that's "just" 22 light years away. The new Super-Earth has a mass that is 4.5 times larger than that of our planet and it revolves around its parent star in 28 days - a star that is significantly smaller than ours. This remarkable new discovery suggests that habitable planets could exist in a wider variety of environments than previously believed. Read More
Brainlink adds new capabilities to store-bought robots
While "toy" robots such as WowWee's Robosapien already have some pretty impressive capabilities, they can now do even more ... if they have a Brainlink module installed. Brainlink is made by BirdBrain Technologies, which is a Carnegie Mellon University spin-off company. When attached to an existing infrared remote-controlled household robot, it will add a built-in light sensor and accelerometer to that device's quiver, along with the possibility of various other user-supplied sensors that can be plugged into its input ports. The Bluetooth-equipped Brainlink also allows robots to be controlled via the user's laptop or Android smartphone, which opens up all sorts of possibilities. Read More
CMU algorithm matches sketches, paintings to photographs
Alexei Efros and his team of cunning robotics researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have developed an image matching algorithm with which computers can identify similar images regardless of medium. Like humans, the system can match sketches and paintings with photographs of similar subjects, and so perform tasks that have traditionally posed problems to machines, such as pairing a simple sketch of a car with a photograph of the same.

New touchscreen tech recognizes different parts of the finger
Small touchscreen devices such smartphones certainly have their attractions, but they also have one drawback – there isn't much room on their little screens for touch-sensitive features. This means that users will sometimes instead have to go into sub-menus, or make do with jabbing their fingers at tiny controls. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University's Human-Computer Interaction Institute, however, are working on an alternative. Their prototype TapSense system can differentiate between screen taps from different parts of the finger, and will perform different tasks accordingly. Read More

It is a training, suffering is a training - because there is no possibility of becoming mature without suffering. It is like fire: the gold, to be pure, has to pass through it. If the gold says. "Why!" then the gold remains impure, worthless. Only by passing through the fire will all that is not gold be burned, and only the purest gold will remain. That's what liberation is all about: a maturity, a growth so ultimate that only the purity, only the innocence remains, and all that was useless has been burned.
There is no other way to realize it. There cannot be any other way to realize it. If you want to know what satiety is, you will have to know hunger. If you want to avoid hunger, you will avoid satiety also. If you want to know what deep quenching is, you will have to know thirst, deep thirst. If you say, "I don't want to be thirsty," then you will miss that beautiful moment of deep quenching of the thirst. If you want to know what light is, you will have to pass through a dark night; the dark night prepares you to realize what light is. If you want to know what life is, you will have to pass through death; death creates the sensitivity in you to know life. They are not opposites; they are complementary.
There is nothing which is opposite in the world; everything is complementary. "This" world exists so that you can know "that" world; "this" exists to know "that." The material exists to know the spiritual; the hell exists to come to heaven. This is the purpose. And if you want to avoid one you avoid both, because they are two aspects of the same thing. Once you understand, there is no suffering: you know this is training, a discipline. Discipline is to be hard. It has to be hard because only then will real maturity come out of it.
Yoga says this world exists as a training school, a learning school - don't avoid it and don't try to escape from it. Rather live it, and live it so totally that you need not be forced again to live it. That's the meaning when we say that an enlightened person never comes back - there is no need. He has passed all the examination that life provides. He need not come back. You have to be forced again and again to the same life pattern because you don't learn. You go on repeating the experience without learning. The same experience you repeat again and again - the same anger. How many, how many thousand times have you been angry? Count it. What have you learned out of it? Nothing. Whenever the situation arises, you will be angry again - the same, as if it is for the first time that you are getting into anger.
How many times has greed, lust possessed you? Again it will possess. And again you will react in the old way - as if you have decided not to learn. And to be ready to learn is to be ready to become a yogi. If you have decided not to learn, if you want to remain blindfolded, if you want to repeat the same nonsense again and again; then you will have to be thrown back: you will have to be sent back to the same class - unless you pass.

Mark Gottfried: Warren Should Be ACC Player Of The Year
NC State head basketball coach, Mark Gottfried, joined Mac and Jim to discuss his team's season, T.J. Warren for ACC Player of the Year, BeeJay Anya's heft, the bubble and the ACC tournament.
On T.J. Warren: He should be the player of the year. What I've liked about him is a couple of things. Number one, he leads the league in scoring, yet he also leads the league in field goal percentage. The only two guys ever to do that are Tim Duncan and Horace Grant and both those two guys are post players. T.J. has done it is a perimeter player. Last year, Erick Green (of Virginia Tech) won player of the year award on a team that finished last in the league. T.J has been box-and-one, triangle-and-two and he's played with three freshmen on the floor almost all of the time. He hasn't had the luxury of playing around a veteran team with other proven scorers. I don't think it's close. There's other good candiates, but T.J has pushed himself way out there in front.
On 'What If': We're the team of near misses this year. Look at the Wake Forest game when we were ahead with ten seconds to go and Cody Miller-McIntyre took the Manu Ginobli steps, the long ones, and scored. Then we go to Syracuse, we've got a chance with an And-1 with 10 seconds to go, to put us up four. We got a chance against Carolina. We've had chances and we have to look in the mirror, can't blame anybody. I don't blame people nor do I let our players. We also allowed some tough emotional losses to carry over and you just can't do that.
On BeeJay Anya: Great young guy. Very smart player, the only thing that has been really tough with BeeJay, is when we signed him he was about 275 pounds. He's a big guy anyway, but he was a lot more agile and nimble. He made too many trips to the Pizza House at midnight, after we got him, and he rolled in here at about 340. He's got to keep losing weight and become more dedicated to his body. When that happens, he's got a chance to become very special.

I have just joined my local council as an IT Technician Apprentice. At the moment we are logging our service disk space manually by this I mean logging on to each server separately and then logging the free space in a spreadsheet. We have about 30 servers that we log the space on so as you can guess this is fairly time consuming.
I know there are bits of software that will do this for you.
So my question to you guys is that is there a free piece of software that will meet the security, ect requirements of a council?
Thanks in advance

- bon appetiteoutoftownerVIPDined on 11/26/2014food was great and in line with what you would expect from a SS restaurant. i don't love the noise level in these places for my personal taste, much like Parc in Philly it bounces all over. But the food is worth the trip. Had the Pork Milanese with the potatoes gratin. It was amazing but a lot of food. great late night snack for the doggie bag though. The neighborhood is hip and if you are from out of town there are a lot of things to take in surrounding the restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Should have been betterOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/25/2014Came on a Tuesday, table for 5. Ambience very nice, and decked out for Christmas. Service was extremely slow, and not attentive. I'd call it poor. At $80 per person for dinner, Le Diplomate should do better. Also, of the 5 main courses, three were good, the lobster risotto special was marginal and dry, and the Norwegian salmon was bad - old fishy taste, couldn't eat. I don't think I'll be coming back. Poor value. There are many nice restaurants in the area, with better food and much better service.
- luv2dineVIPDined on 11/25/2014excellent food with casual atmosphere.Large portions so don't over order. Will eat here again next time I am in DCSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing food and wineOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/24/2014I brought my out-of-town family here and they loved it! We ordered everything from the special, to the king crab leg, and the steak and frites...which are to die for. Our waiter picked out five cheeses for us to meet all of of different tastes and requests. I will definitely be going back ASAP!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Yummy Food, Nice SettingOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 11/23/2014The food here was delicious. We had the Beef Bourginon, french fries and creme brulee. Wait staff was friendly and attentive, and very nice setting. Would definately comeback again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food and service were outstanding!MikeDined on 11/23/2014We loved the food and the decor! It was difficult to find on-street parking but the $12 valet parking was easy and fast on the back end.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BrunchmariaDined on 11/23/2014We had a nice lunch at le diplomat. The food was good. It was as if you were in Belgium or France. The service was good. Very lively atmosphere, a lot to see. Nice public.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Another delightful mealpmjedwardsDined on 11/22/2014This was our fifth or sixth trip to Le Diplomate in the last year. As always, reserve and reserve early. We arrived promptly at 9 for our reservation. We were not seated till 930, for which the staff were very appologetic. Upon being seated complimentary glasses of sparkling wine and two starters were delivered to the table: good save! For appetisers you can't go wrong with salad Lyonaisse or the foie gras, while for the main course their presentation of duck breast was delicious. The wine list has something for every price range, and if you are not afraid of a Chinon or a Brouilly, you have some good options. Unfortunately no room for dessert this time!Special Features:
- Terrific food, excellent serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/22/2014Always the highest quality food and attentive - but not overbearing - service. This time I was pleasantly surprised when, having given up on making it through to a very crowded bar, I decided to wait outside at the tables (in late November, very cold, I was the only one sitting there) for my wife and our reservation. Someone came out to take my drink order! I didn't even have to fight the bar. I was very, very impressed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sleeping on its laurelsAdrianDined on 11/22/2014I ate at Le Diplomate shortly after it opened, some time ago, and the oufs en cocotte were stunning. On a recent visit, I therefore ordered the same. The dish was rather poorly made this time, with the cream coagulated and the eggs essentially sitting on top. One of our party even asked for the eggs to be made again, and out they came, almost browned and sitting on clearly separated cream. Big disappointment. Cheese plate was good, pate was OK, and wine selection is still fine. However, I don't need to put up with the long reservation list and the boisterous crowd for this level of cooking - I can get better performance buying cheese, pate and wine and having it at home.Special Features:
- Consistently goodMP1265Dined on 11/22/2014Enjoy this place as it is consistent and the food is pretty good. Just wish it was no so pricey.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- loud but goodbqq777Dined on 11/22/2014Knew it was crowded at brunch, but not so crowded they would run out of cappuccinos! The waitress offered to get us coffee on the house, but we waited about 5 minutes and the cappuccinos eventually arrived. Delicious and perfect otherwise, as usual. Le Diplomate is my favorite restaurant in DC.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Paris on 14th Street!OpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 11/21/2014Close your eyes and you can transport yourself to a bistro in Paris while dining on 14th Street at Le Diplomate, but with truly friendly, superb service! We grabbed dinner on a Saturday night before heading to a concert at the 9:30 club and had a truly great meal. The foie gras appetizer was a generous portion of deliciousness, melting in your mouth. The steak frites, served with hangar steak, was cooked to perfection, with crispy skinny fries. But the best part of the night was the service, lead by our waiter Rob who was charming and attentive, and even the manager came over to check that we were enjoying ourselves. The restaurant was packed but the food came out promptly and perfectly. Wished we lived closer to downtown so we could make it our neighborhood spot.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- FantasticSaydi82Dined on 11/21/2014The food was delicious. My husbands meal and mine were perfect. Highly recommend. And the ambience is spectacular.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing restaurant and waitOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 11/20/2014Had an amazing time but the wait even with a reservation was 30 minutes.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Love this place!ElleVIPDined on 11/20/2014First of all, the service here from start to finish was excellent. I had a larger group than I'd originally reserved a table for, but the hostesses were attentive and quick to find a suitable table. The menu is very French bistro, but varied enough that even the vegetarian at the table found something interesting. I love the potatoes au gratin and get them every time. They are a MUST.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2001VIPDined on 11/20/2014Decent menu and wine list, great ambiance, polite and attentive service. The food fell a little short of expectations. My companion and I had different fish entrees that were both beautifully cooked but distinctly oversalted.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fun on all countsOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 11/20/2014We had a reservation and were seated right away. Service was prompt, thoughtful, seamless. We were brought fun extras as gifts of the chef including tiny delicious popovers and a salmon butter spread that melted in the mouth. The server helped us to choose a great selection for the cheese board which came with perfect adds like nuts and fruit. Main courses were perfect in flavor and presentation. The place was packed, but not too loud for great conversation and added to the feel of relaxed fun. We will definitely go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ZolaDined on 11/20/2014We got oysters, French onion soup and split the steak and frittes and the waiter recommended excellent wine to pair with the meal! Was very happy with the whole experience! Excellent service and food! Yum! Can't wait to go back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Another great dinnerbthutchinsVIPDined on 11/19/2014We go to events frequently in the 14th Street area and we have eaten here a number of times, even though there are a number of great options in the area. The food is outstanding and the atmosphere is welcoming and calm. The menu is not huge, but we have tried most of it within our group and we have found everything wonderful. I had the half baked chicken and after my friends tried it and the sauce I had to fight to keep my part. The sauce is great and saving some bread for it was worth it. My friend had the steak au poivre and it was also super. Really like the place and will keep coming back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Duke1Dined on 11/18/2014Nice from the moment we walked into the place early, nobody there yet, divine. The minute I took a look at the joint, I knew I was in love with the place,I loved it; Everybody very friendly, starting with the totally excellent front desk lady,then the bar lady, excellent martini(s) at the bar. (2 each of us), then talk, talk. sit down to a gorgeous dinner, Lobster/veal/lobster, more wine. A totally upscale evening for me, thanks so much for a nice birthday for me. Thank you so much, Alan Edward WilsonSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent service!foodieVIPDined on 11/17/2014Staff including the manager came by several times to check on the table. I was delighted with the excellent service I received which added to the fantastic food! Definitely a hot spot and will go back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- not for wine-loverOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/17/2014Although the wine list covers all-round of wines, it doesn't look like wines were served for us to enjoy them (small glasses for red wine, rough way of pouring). Besides, we did not feel comfortable, when we were urged to order the next dishes repeatedly before finishing the wine that fits the dish.Special Features:
- Great food poor serviceJandRSVIPDined on 11/16/2014some of the best food we've ever had. Our server was horrid. Would love to have made this a five star and would have but the service just killed it. The people assisting the server were the only saving grace they were fantastic..if not for them we would have been in trouble. We will go back but just hope that we don't have the same server.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Expected moreNinaDined on 11/16/2014I expected much more from the restaurant based on write-ups and comments from friends. The food was good, but no wow factor. There was nothing really striking on the menu which made me feel somewhat disappointed. That being said my appetizer (frommage de tete) and dessert (chocolate Napolitaine) where excellent. Not so my husband's choices. The service was very good; the place is very popular so quite noisy; the price is reasonable for the type of fare.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great but Noisy PlaceGreatVIPDined on 11/16/2014We tried Le Diplomate to meet local friends mainly because of the great reviews and the availability pf their valet parking option. but we should have just picked it for its great food, great wines and great service (we had Meghan), It is quite noisy especially at the bar where we waited after arriving early, but once we were seated we had a splendid meal and despite the bar noise had good conversational ability. If we lived here, we would probably be a regular (but I am glad I don;t live here).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very tasty French food with excellent service.foodynoshoesDined on 11/16/2014I highly recommend the fluke ceviche. The flavor was fantastic. The ambiance is great for small groups or a date. Do not expect to get a table soon without a reservation.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BrunchOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/16/2014We came early, around 945 had prime seating options and the service was so fast I was very surprised. The crowd and noise level picked up quickly as brunchers came in. We sat on the outside terrace which got a little crowded fast but overall it was a great experience with very quick and prompt service. Not to mention the food was very fresh and tasty.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Noisy but greatKclaytonDined on 11/15/2014Brasserie classics done to perfection - it is crowded and loud, but the food and service are worth itSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- One of our best DC dining experiences!MarylandCrabDined on 11/15/2014We had high expectations going into dinner and they delivered on every note. Started with some tasty oysters, and moved right in the radishes with herb butter/ravioli's. Both incredible. For main we had the beef and skate. The BEEF BOURGUIGNON was probably one of the most delicious things I have ever put in my mouth. The skate was ok. Finish everything off with a nice dry Bordeaux. Incredible evening with incredible service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Slice of ParisOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/15/2014Craving duck? Steak frites? Crème brûlée made from scratch? Make a reservation—but do it well in advance of when you want to dine. The place is, understandably, very popular.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Enjoyed our visitHSMITHDined on 11/15/2014We were in DC last just before Le Diplomate opened and were anxious to try it on our return. It did not disappoint! The restaurant is beautiful and definitely imparts a French feel. We were seated immediately and service was efficient but not overbearing. The bread basket was delicious. Coffee and capuccino both very good. I had the poached eggs basquaise and husband had duck sarladaises. Both were excellent. I could've eaten a whole bowl of the polenta in my dish alone! The duck confit in my husband's dish was so good. We ended with profiteroles---we haven't been to Parc in Philly but have always heard folks at home there raving about them. They weren't kidding. The profiteroles were absolutely delicious and the perfect size to share and end the meal. We would definitely return on a future trip to DC!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Super BrunchSeaSaltDined on 11/15/2014Our third time at the restaurant and just keeps getting better. Even though the restaurant was extremely busy upon arrival for our Saturday Noon reservation, we were immediately whisked to our perfect table. Our two guests hadn't arrived yet however our waiter made it clear that there was no rush at all. Wonderful service and our waiter adapted well to one of our loved friends that is also a very finicky yet experienced cook and global diner! We had been for two dinners however Brunch was particularly fun with a menu perfectly balanced for customers that would like a mid day meal with a choice of breakfast, lunch, or dinner. for instance, My wife had a perfectly made omelette (an Omelette that we thought only the French know how to prepare), one of our guests had a super egg dish with polenta and prosciutto, and I had trout almandine! All washed down with an excellent yet well priced Chateauneuf du Pape recommended by our waiter. What an excellent Saturday it made for us!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Poor Service, Good Food, Great AmbianceOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 11/15/2014I made a reservation through Open Table to have brunch here with my mom. When we arrived, we checked in and were told that it would just be a minute. Five minutes later, after I'd seen the hostess seat at least three other parties (two of them also had two people), I approached to check what was going on. It turns out the hostess had forgotten about us. So, she told someone to take us to a certain table. I thought she might have been giving us a good table because of the oversight. But no, she was trying to seat us at a cramped table right in front of the monstrous coat rack. We asked if there might be another table, and we were told we could have the cramped table behind it. Mind you, the place was pretty empty. So, we decided to eat at the bar. I got eggs benedict that was just okay. However, my mom got the quiche Lorraine and we split the French Toast to try. The quiche and the French Toast were terrific. Also, while sitting at the bar, we both agreed that the ambience was great. So, there are some upsides. You just have to watch out for poor hostessing, which is a shame, since I normally receive great service as an Open Table customer.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- More than meets the eyeOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 11/14/2014The frenetic level of activity in this packed restaurant belied the level of service and dining quality that awaited us at Le Diplomate. Our server Karla did a great job guiding us through the menu after we informed her it was our first visit, and she paced our meal perfectly when she was informed we had time for a leisurely dinner. Since so many have commented on the food, I'll only add that every dish we had was well-prepared, delicious, and served at the appropriate temperature. Brief highlights included the radish crudite, the star of which was the butter. The butter had a beautiful aroma and a nicely sour taste (truffle salt?). The beef bourguignon was magnificent, featuring fork tender beef in a deeply flavored, perfectly seasoned sauce, as well as roasted root vegetables, lardons, and buttery potato puree. Finally, the creme brulee was perfect, and enough for two to three people. As a side note, I was thrilled and amazed to land a same-day reservation, so don't give up. The wait on a Friday evening looked long, and some people even chose to eat outside in the uncovered portion of the patio. Amazing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- anniversary dinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/13/2014We dined with another couple and for both of us it was our 45th wedding anniversary. Host was aware, made a fuss over us and seated us at a relatively quiet table next to the windows on 14th Street away from the bar. Complimentary champagne came to our table but I wish he had told us that before we ordered drinks. Green salad was a beautiful presentation, with small green beans and a light vinaigrette. Men had the mushroom soup which was very flavorful but we all thought was too salty. Dover sole was perfectly cooked, scallops were served with interesting mix of cauliflower and apples. Steak au poivre got high marks as did the beef bourguignon. all in all we had a great evening, but this is not an intimate restaurant, rather a riff on a classy French bistro with terrific food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food Excellent. Great cocktails. Too loudOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 11/12/2014The food was outstanding. Plus, we have finally found a place that mix a great cocktail. Many places can do an adequate job, but these were special. The service was excellent. The servers really know the food, the preparation and the proper wine paring. We found them extremely helpful in making our selections. One word of caution, it is very, very loud. It was difficult to have a conversation without raising our voices or repeating ourselves. Nevertheless, I would go back again and again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mixed vibes for dining experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/12/2014We had to take an early 5:15 reservation to get a table, and with an early seating comes an eager waiter paying far too much attention to our small table for two, rearranging the order of the silverware we were using on our plates, saying 'bon apetite' after every item placed on our table. We get it, you want to be a fancy French restaurant and charge $30/plate, but yet you have paper and salt and pepper shakers on each table. It was as though the restaurant couldn't make up it's mind as to what grade of restaurant it wanted to be. Go all the way, bite the bullet for linens on the tables, and your attentive service can supply the salt and pepper if it is needed. Although the menu was limited, the food was delicious (with the exception of the Au Gratin potatoes) and I would be happy to recommend it to friends.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- first tripOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 11/11/2014I made last minute reservations on Tuesday night. We were seated quickly, and our server came out immediately. He was warm, friendly, and attentive. We ordered cocktails and the beef tartar, both of which came out quickly. The tartar is the best I've ever had. We had the roast chicken and beef bourguignon, both of which were exquisite. Despite being totally full and not ordering desert, the waiter brought out some chewy chocolate bites with a candle having noticed my birthday when he checked my id. It was an amazing dinner and one I won't soon forget!Special Features:
- Special Occasion with a Surprise!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/11/2014My fiance and I celebrated his birthday and had a phenomenal experience. Both of us work in the service industry and are a bit nit-picky about service, but were blown away at how well-rounded the evening was. Our server was helpful and made himself readily available, which is difficult to do in a busy restaurant. The sommelier, Eric, stopped by to offer his suggestions in pairing my fiance's duck breast entree (which was superb, by the way) with my steak frites (perfect hanger cut, perfect medium-rare) and checked back in with us at the end of the meal. A simple candle in the dessert ended our evening, which worked well as my fiance does not enjoy being the center of attention. Bonus points- Joe Biden was in the restaurant that night!Special Features:

Bistro Nous - N.Dallas
James Rowland, most recently of the Dallas National Golf Club and Crescent Court before that, recently opened up a new restaurant in the old Urban Bistro / Modo Mio space at Frankford and the Tollway. Anyone tried it yet?
I finally tried Bistro Nous last night. What a wonderful place! They have a great bar/lounge area where we settled in for a few drinks before dinner. The bartender and the GM were very friendly, giving us insight into the menu and the plans for the restaurant. The menu was very impressive. EXTREMELY reasonable price points with interesting and unique chef created food items. There was even an ask James option which is basically a tasting menu with the customers input. All of the items we ordered were outstanding. I really think that this place has the potential to be the York Street/Lola of North Dallas. I will definitely return and I hope that others join me because North Dallas needs more restaurants like this one.
re: snatex
It sounds great. What are some examples of items on the menu and price points. How much was the tasting menu? Do they do a wine pairing with the tasting menu?
re: mjtx
Some of the smaller plates (although not so small) we had were:
potato tart with spinach, prosciutto and St. Andre.
pork ribs
quail legs with vegetable slaw
empanadas with an amazing sausage filling
egg noodles, mushrooms, and chicken, in a brown butter sauce
I think all these were around $10 each. Most were in the $8-12 range.
We also had a larger plate of lamb chops with polenta and broccolini in a red wine reduction. I think that was about $16. Most of the standard entrees were in the teens.
There are also some higher end entrees on the menu (Lobster cavier omelet) that were in the $20-60 range.
That is what I found refreshing about the restaurant. If you want to spend a lot of money you can or if you want to keep your bill within a budget you can do that too.
The "ask James" feature on the menu is currently a flexible price point. I believe you tell him how much you want to spend and he tailors the meal meet your needs. I was told they do have wine pairings.
Yes. We did the "ask James" option. We had:
Corn Taco and Chicken Soup.
Caesar Salad.
Crab Cakes with Remoullade Sauce. These could be the best crab cakes in Dallas!
Diver Scallops w. Crimson Lentils. Intriging spicing on the lentils.
Then we split.
I had asked for organ meat and got a plate of calves liver, heart, and gizzards with braised apples.
My dining companions came from the more conventional side of the human race. They had Chateaubriand. The tenderloin was melt in your mouth soft.
Finally, dessert was Valrhona Chocolate Cake and Romanoff Cake.
All this was expertly prepared and expertly served. When you do the 'ask James.." option chef James Rowland comes over to your table and you decide what you would like him to prepare and he tells you what the options are. It is a very personal, homely style of dining but the results stand up to the haut cuisine anywhere in town. After all, James Rowland used to be a senior chef for Rosewood Hotels.
The wine list is small but well chosen. The Argentinian Malbec was so good we ordered a second bottle.
Bistro Nous is doing a soft opening. The sign is a temporary plastic affair and the web site (www.BistroNous.com) is under construction. No reviews have appeared in the legacy media. We try lots of places on opening and find a mixed bag. This is the best new place I have come across in Dallas for a long time. When it gets known this may become a hard reservation to get. As another poster said here, it will become the 'York St' of North Dallas.
re: Worzel Gummidge
Sounds great..but I do hope it will not become the "York St" of North Dallas, because inevitably that will raise the prices!
re: jinet12
This is as good as what everyone says. Thanks Chowhounds for an excellent recommendation. Their simple spinach salad was really enjoyable. We also had crab cakes yum! Bouillabaise which was packed full of fresh seafood and filet. They were so sweet to my little toddler (UNLIKE YORK STREET) and even offered to make him a meal even though they didn't have a kiddie menu. However, our little toddler is somewhat a Chowpup and prefers filet mignon to mac and cheese so happily sat for an hour and half and ate what we had.
The wine list was also excellent. it was a really enjoyable experience.
re: Super90
last night I saw that they're offering prix fixe lunches for $10 - sounds like a bargain.
I've eaten there twice now, and was impressed both times with the quality of the food and the skill in preparation. In fact, we were so pleased that we decided to hire James to cater our group's holiday party - I'm really looking forward to it.
re: gavlist
I ate there with some business partners last week. We did the "Ask James" thing and it was incredible. The wine selection was tremendous, including a hard-to-find selection that was the favorite of one of my guests. It will definitely be a place to which I return.
re: gavlist
Found this online. We're definitely going!
re: kuidaore
We went for the lunch bargain today and weren't impressed. We expected taste, but found very little.
We liked the bread with bread spread very much and the mushroom soup was good, but both main dishes--chicken pillard (which was the waiter's favorite) and stir-fried Cajun pork--were disappointments. I only had two bites of the chicken and couldn't eat the rest. All I could taste was the pepper.
However, I liked the green beans with the fried potatoes a lot. The green beans were very crunchy and might be the best green beans I've ever had in my life.
Maybe dinner is different?
re: twinwillow
This place is consistently fantastic. We did "Ask James" last weekend. I love not having to order and the anticipation of what is going to come out of the kitchen next. Every dish we had was perfectly executed.
1. Potato leek soup
2. Angel Hair with lump crab
3. Caesar salad
4. Red Snapper with vegetables in parchment paper served with a mornay sauce
5. Pork tenderloin w/ dirty rice
6. Vanilla custard in a chocolate crust with berry sauce
I can't wait to go back!
re: snatex
Bistro Nous is everything you all said it is. Went there for lunch today. We were particularly impressed with the staff's friendliness. The food was good, the service and wellcomeness supurb. Is that a word?
re: Plano Rose
We are new to the area (and to chow) and decided to give Bistro Nous a try. My first impression was of the cheap plywood paneling on the front of the entry that is already buckling, and looks to be poorly constructed. First impressions are not always telling obviously, but they certainly can be. When I walked in I noticed the Spanish tile that seemed to be out of place when compared with the rest of the décor. It looked as if the tile was pre-existing and they just didn't want to bother with replacing the floors, but overall the ambience was fine. The only real highlight was the bar which had a comfortable lounge and dark wood floors that seemed much more appropriate.
We were seated immediately, and thought it was strange that there was only one other two top in the restaurant at 8 o'clock at night. The service was lackluster, and I had to keep myself from laughing when the waiter told us that his last gig was at "Buffalo Wild Wings". Granted that doesn't mean anything, but with his faux hawk in full effect, we weren't feeling especially confident about what we were about to experience. The waiter knew nothing about the wine list, and next to nothing about the menu (which incidentally didn't have adequate descriptions of the entrees). The menu seemed hastily thrown together with everything from stir fry, to pasta, to sandwiches. It's as if they are trying to be everything to everybody, and it just didn't work for us. The food was mediocre, the ribs were dry, the salad selections were unimpressive, and the Steak Au Poivre was more choice than prime (though at least it was cooked properly). Overall we weren't impressed and won't be returning anytime soon. Maybe it was a fluke, and maybe I'll come back around at a later date, but for right now there are too many other places to try...
re: simplesimon76
simplesimon, welcome to dallas. i bow to your refined palate, something that is valuable and desperately needed. so glad to get your clear-headed account of this place.
re: teegee
Wow Simplesimon. it's as if you went to a completely different restaurant. Our waiter was awesome and knew EVERYTHING abt the menu. they were absolutely attentive.
re: AussieGirl
Agreed, which is why I said that maybe it was a fluke, but judging by the number of crickets I heard chirping in the background, it is quite possible that they may have trouble holding on to good staff... Maybe the Chef took the night off, or is trying to save money in lieu of a lack of business... You can never tell when a new restaurant opens up. Anyway, I hope your experiences continue to be good ones.
re: simplesimon76
my impression is that they haven't had an "official" grand opening yet - probably they're trying to work out all of the bugs in the system before ramping up full-scale. On both of my visits, it was empty too - but that translated into top-quality service, from both the back and front of the house. And our waiter (I think he's also the maitre'd?) knew the wine list quite well. Perhaps they were training new staff on your visit.
too bad that you didn't have an enjoyable meal. In a competitive market like this, it can only take one lackluster visit to lose a customer for good.
We had dinner at theis new restaurant on Friday night. We found the atmosphere to be very cozy and it took us back to little quaint places we use to eat at when we were in Paris. we took our 7 year old daughter with us and I have to stay the staff was wonderful and very accommodating . They do not have a kids menu but the chef quickly made a wonderful pasta dish for her she was very happy with. My husband and I both had the house pinot noir we thought it was very nice and very reasonable. We started our meal with the crab cakes. They were good certainly not the best I have ever had but better than average. I had a caeser salad which was freash and crisp not made with pre-chopped romain but from a fresh head of romain. The presentation was nice, I think the dressing was not home made but very high quality for pre-packaged. for our entreeI had the special which was lamb chops they were cooked perfect and very good. They came with a creamy polenta which was also really good, my husband had the Steak Au Poivre and thought it was excellent. Over all our experience was terrific and we will be going back to Bistro Nous soon.
re: Analisas mom
I had dinner at this restaurant last night. When we got there, we found that it was very cozy. There was low lighting and it had nice Christmas music playing at just the right volume. With the cushioned bench seating against the wall and a cool wind blowing in, it reminded me of a cozy NY restaurant. I had ordered tea, but the mood was so nice, I ordered the wine list. Then the wheels fell off:
There was a party that had evidently booked the bar. They were at a low din in the beginning but , as the night wore on, they got louder and louder. They were playing some game where they yelled out numbers. (I must have been a drinking game). When we complained to the waiter, he was unapologetic and shrugged saying they were the staff from Tei Tei Robata and this was their Christmas party. The noise ruined the mood completely.
The waiter and service was slow. The waiter was perplexed by the wine menu. When i asked for his recommendation, he stared blankly at the list without ever saying anything. So I chose the house sauvignon blanc with no suggestion from him and he then took a good 10 minutes to bring the wine which I had to ask him to chill. There were only 4 other two top tables taken, so he wasn't busy with other patrons. Then, when we were done with our entree, he presented the check without ever asking if we wanted dessert or coffee. (To be fair, when I pointed this out, he brought us out a dessert we didn't touch). After signing the bill, then he came back later and said that he had given us the wrong bill, so we had to sign again. We sat next to a couple who said they had been there 7 or 8 times and they admitted that this was the worst service ever. We got there at 8 and left around 10 (dining should be an experience so that was fine by me except that 2 hours of the noise was too much).
The food was bland and uninspiring. In particular, we had the beef stir fried with egg noodles as an entree and a tart appetizer that supposedly had cheese and sausage (none seen). We also had the angel hair pasta with crabmeat, which actually had quite a lot of crabmeat, but still managed to be a little bland. The one exception was the warm endive salad. The only problem was that it got cold while I was waiting on the wine. The couple I mentioned above raved about their food though.
I left a note to the management explaining the problems and I've gotten a message this morning from them comping the meal altogether. So at least they're trying to do the right thing. Still, I don't think I'll be going back. You can blame much of the problems on the party that they refused to control, but not the food and that's too bad. We could certainly use more of these types of restaurants (i.e., non-Chili's) in the neighborhood.
re: Clem943
As a follow up, I did speak to the owner of Bistro Nous. He had been at the grill that night and was very apologetic. He explained that the crowd had gotten out of hand and they were going to reconsider whether to accept these parties in the future. He told me that the server was new there and had admitted fault. When I asked about the food, he told me that he had been "rushed" in his preparations because of the party. He was as gracious as he could have been, spoke knowledgably and maybe these things just happen sometimes, but still .....
Well we stopped in again last night after shopping all day. We were really ready for a good meal as we had not eaten all day. We were not dissappointed. We had great service and the food was outstanding Oyster's rockafella not on the menu but we requested and the chef made them then we split the spinach salad which was wonderful and we each had a steak cooked to perfection. The place was pretty busy last night I think word is getting out.
re: Analisas mom
I was there last night as well. To put my dining experience in a nutshell...very disappointing. The service was slow and almost apathetic. The food came out about an hour after ordering and some dishes were cold. Some of the food was uninspiring and boring and I don't see how some people can mention York St. and Bistro Nous in the same sentence. Completely different league. There are tons of variables to account for my lousy experience so I won't give this visit a formal review. I just hope they don't think they can get away with the service I received last night and hope the customer is aloof to it.
The irony is that I posted a comment defending the owner right after Clem943 posted a sour review. It was deleted promptly by the administrator. I love irony.
EDIT I have to mention some highlights: The scallops with lentils was a knockout. The Oysters were fresh and tasty. The bread person was a dilligent and cheerful worker. The interior is beautiful and inviting.
Last night was my second time going to bistro nous, and unfortunately I have to report that it was a disappointment and a borderline disaster. Our first experience there was excellent, which is why we went back, and why we will give it another chance.
Last night my wife ordered the crab cake appetizer and the scallops and I ordered the cerviche appetizer and the filet. My wife's crab cake was good, but not great, and while she ordered the scallops, she got the halibut, which turned out to be pretty good.
My meal was terrible, aside from the grilled bread and pepper ailoi. The cerviche was warmish as though it had been standing out on the counter all night, and the crackers it came with were stale. Basically it didn't seem exactly fresh, which is not good in a cerviche. I made a comment to our waiter (which I rarely do), and since the chef was talking to someone at a nearby table, had him come over and interrogate me as to what my problem was. I told him that it didn't seem fresh and that the crackers were and and he stormed off in a huff.
As you can imagine this made me slightly nervous about my main course. When our main courses came, both of them looked good and smelled good. I like my meat very rare, and this filet certainly was that, but when I tasted it, it was bitter and burnt, not overdone but actually burnt, as though it was cooked directly in a flame. Those of you who cook beef on a grill know that one actually has to try to attain the flavor of charcoal on a rare, prime piece of beef. No amount of demi-glace can cover the taste of such a disgrace.
We didn't complain about my wife getting halibut instead of scallops because there didn't seem to be any point after tasting the beef. We simply told our waiter, who was excellent and understanding. He took the cerviche and steak off of our check, which we appreciated. We will go back because of the service this time, but next time we hope it will be the food.

Breakfast and Lunch
Tomorrow breakfast and lunch. I'll heat the frozen buckwheat pancakes and blueberries. Top with cottage cheese and 2 hard boiled eggs on the side. Lunch will be reheated frozen meatloaf and toasted homemade bread. I pre-toast my bread and put in a sandwich bag the night before. I don't seal in fully until the next morning so the steam escapes.
I pre-cook big batches of buckwheat pancakes. Pre-package my lunch the night before. Breakfast is usually pancakes and cottage cheese or egg sandwiches, sometimes with some dubliner. Lunch is something I made the night before, or something I had extra and froze. I've been having sliced cucumbers with my lunch this week but I'm out for tomorrow and I'm tired. It's Thursday. I have zucchini in the fridge but just can't do it. :-). Cheers!

Dehydrator Buckwheat Flakes
Diane on FB shared this with me. http://mitochondrialdepletionsyndrome.blogspot.com/2013/02/cold-cereal-flakes-buckwheatcoconut-and.html?m=1
Of course I had to alter the recipe for myself.
3/4 cup buckwheat flour
3/4 cup King Arthur unbleached white wheat flour
1/4 cup ground flax seed
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup apple sauce
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup Lakewood organic apple juice
Diane said the thinner you spread the better
the flake so I thinned the batter a bit more
with the apple juice. Spread in 5 fruit leather
trays. Cooking on highest heat. I'll post the
results later.

We've been watching south of the border in google.com land their rollout of just a couple of days ago of the new Google local carousel display for web search results.

On Responsive Design: A Idea has Legs
Filed under: SEO
Okay, I'm one of the first to admit that I like tables. I do not like CSS. The reason for same is that at my age the old adage about "old dog and new tricks" may have some bearing but for the most part, I believe that when you find something that works perfectly, you use it. In other words, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Hence, my reliance on tables for site page layouts and CSS only for formatting fo fonts etc…. A few years back I was hired to be a part of the team that did the canada.com website re-design and development – a set of tasks that I totally hated due to the HUGE CSS dependencies!
That said, I'm wrong! Or at least, I'm admitting that CSS may have a place in my new site layouts and designs and that comes from it's ability to react to the "responsive design" principles….which I define here from Wikipedia -

A Social Media Metronome…
Filed under: SEO
It's a fabulous Friday once again, and there have been some real "timely" infographics that have recently sprung up and I thought that I'd bring some of same up to our readers.
First, the word metronome - it's a word that means a device that produces regular, metrical ticks and in this case…what I mean by same, is that when it comes to social media, that time is important to try to understand just how "quick" the social media world is growing.

Why Most SEO Leads Just Can't be Closed!
Filed under: SEO
Thought it might be time to talk about the simple fact that, for the most part, when we SEO practitioners get a "lead" it generally is not worth much effort when it comes to closing same.
Huh – you think? Is this guy for real? Any lead should be followed, nurtured and then you go for the close…that's the way business grows. Isn't it?
Well, yes….usually that's how things work….but let me explain…

Coastal Trident 2012 Exercise
Updated On: Jan 16 2013 09:40:54 PM CST
A Regional Maritime Security Exercise wrapped up today. The Navy, the Port of Hueneme, the US Coast Guard, law enforcement and first responders took part. The three day drill put response teams to the test. Organizers revealed a real time made-up scenario involving terrorists, drug cartels and gang members trying to smuggle chemical weapons into the U.S. Guest Speakers called the operation timely and relevant in the wake of recent drug busts. Just this week the Coast Guard and the National Guard intercepted marijuana smuggling boats near the Channel Islands Harbor and South of Mugu Rock. One boat was a cabin cruiser that some people referred to as a pot yacht, the other was a open vessel known as a panga. In both cases arrests were made and marijuana was confiscated, but the search continues for the criminals in charge.

Scorpio Monthly Horoscope For September, 2011
Friends and Lovers
September is often the most romantic month of the year for passionate Scorpio, and this month's Full Moon on September 12th is no exception. Use your considerable creativity to let that special person in your life know how much they mean to you. Scorps with children should pay special attention to them during the time of the Full Moon in sensitive Pisces, as they may feel more emotional or vulnerable to outside influences. You'll be ready to spend more time at home recharging your spiritual batteries after the Sun enters Libra on September 23rd. The New Moon behind the scenes in your twelfth house on September 27th may find you feeling especially reflective.
Make Your Play
During the first 10 days of September, Mercury gives energy to your career goals and public interests. Once you've made a great case for yourself, you can look for support from your friends after Mercury enters your 11th house of associates on September 10th. You'll be exceptionally persuasive during this time, so if you are working on a campaign or other community minded project, you can expect to see progress. After Sept. 26th, Mercury joins the cosmic pile-up in your 12th house of 'everything that has gone before'. This is a good time to meditate on where you've been and where you'd like to go, as well as a great time to conduct research.
Need Some Down Time
During the first half of the month, you will have more social invitations than you know what to do with. Make the most of it even if you are feeling anti-social, because this is a great way to network and make connections that can help you achieve your goals. The groundwork you set now will help you later, when the Sun enters your sign in October. After Sept. 19th, Venus leaves your 11th house of friends and associates for a retreat into your 12th house of hidden and subconscious matters. Traditionally, this is a time of unrequited love and clandestine affairs. Why not make it your own personal down time? Make an appointment for a massage and read a good book or two. Even the mighty Eagle needs a period of rest and reflection.
Career in High Gear
Until September 19th, heated Mars stokes the fires of religious and political conversations... this may bring out hidden feelings even you didn't know you had! Be conscious of who your audience is at month's end, when a business partner or close work associate may disagree with your philosophy. After the 19th, energetic Mars fires up your 10th house of career and public standing. You may have to work more than you'd like to as the month comes to an end. Try to find a balance between your work and your personal life.

Mmmm, all discussion of its feasibility aside, once your gear has passed the level where you are uncrittable, there's no good reason to dual wield. It's possible, doable, but let's face it, the only significant improvement it offers is more threat per second and maybe a bit more defense. I sure don't need more threat, and the stat difference with dual wielding isn't appreciable enough.
I just like shooting down the "zomg you're a moron for thinking dual wielding isn't the worth thing in a world."

Soldier Pass Trail is a 2.0 mile point-to-point trail located near Sedona, Arizona that treks through a cypress-pinon-juniper forest and offers the chance to see wildlife. Good for all skill levels. Accessible year-round. Dogs are able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.

Nice trail! The most difficult obstacle is the rocks piled up at the start. We started early, and didn't see another 4X4 until we start back out.

IPHONE USERS! The direction send you to Soldiers Pass road... Turn down Soldiers pass for 1.5 miles and then turn right on Rim Shadows, parking is just down the road to the left.
Great trail! I did it on my unicycle and it was a great downhill at the end with lots of views :)

Very nice trail. If one wants to go to the Arches you need to watch out for a blocked trail to the right, before you hike another 2 miles like we did!

Looped this trail with Brins Mesa. Beautiful trail, generally easily followed although a little confusing lower down. Great sink hole, red rock views, and "sacred pools". The off-road activity lower down also distracting at times but a nice hike never the less.

Excellent off-road trail, not very long. Have a stock FJ Cruiser 2013 trail team edition. No problem in 4L and atrac. I was nervous going up to sinkhole climbing the stairs but FJ did great. Watch out for all the Jeep tours. Some nice hiking trails too!!!!

We hiked Soldier Pass as part of a Loop which included Jordan and a section of Brins Mesa. For me, Soldier Pass was the more scenic and prettier trail of the three.There is an amazing sinkhole on this trail. The waterways that run along this trail were dry and made me wonder what this trail is like when there is water running. It must look amazing. We found a very large paw print in the dried mud that was as big as my palm. My print guide led me to believe it to be that of a mountain lion/puma. A portion of this trail is near an off road vehicle path. I would go on this trail again and again.

Wildlife, breathtaking views, and a decent length and elevation hike make for a great visceral and physical experience.

Slightly challenging off-road experience for a new driver. Scared all my passangers out of the vehicle on the last obstacle before the sinkhole. The short length and time commitment with excellent sites make this a must do off road trip.

FLORIDA, An unemployment nightmare in Florida. Laid-off Americans here may not see any immediate relief. Right now, the state can't do anything with extended benefits until congress passes it.
Wednesday, the Senate passed a bill restoring benefits to those who have been out of work for six months or more. President Barack Obama is poised to sign the measure tomorrow.
So, how soon will Florida get the ball rolling and make their decision? September the earliest, unless there's a special session. It's up to the governor, or the senate president and the house speaker to make that decision.
