Is a good extension, but you have to know a lot of programing to make a form...
sorry but I have difficulties to agree:
The QuickMode includes a lot of features where you don't need any programming skills. Even complex tasks are covered out-of-the-box (managed themes, conditional fields, record editing, CCK features through ContentBuilder, paypal payments, and many many more).
Of course, there are requirements that are so special where you need some adjustments. Therefore Breezingforms offers well defined places to extend its functionality. It even offers 3 different form creation modes:
1. QuickMode -- The quickest way of creating even complex form ever for Joomla!.
2. EasyMode -- For designers, offers HTML editing capabilities and much more.
3. ClassicMode -- For technicians/programmers, total freedom.
So you choose yourself the level of complexity -- BreezingForms it not forcing you to program a single line of code.
However, thank you the review!

Highway Patrolman
Presented by Harvard Film Archive at Harvard Film Archive
June 11, 2012
While making Walker, Cox hired a driver who regaled him with stories from his previous career as a member of Mexico's Federal Highway Patrol. From these reminiscences, Cox fashioned a restrained but exciting and even moving tale of a young policeman's existential struggle to remain honest in the face of crime, corruption and gringo contempt. The beautiful Mexican vistas and the unending roads are captured for the most part in long takes. Cox himself has said that the film was made under the spell of the great Mexican director Arturo Ripstein and has spoken movingly of the film as a tribute to the warmth of the Mexican people who retain their dignity in the face of poverty and violence.

Twitter API outrage: Break our rules and we'll break app kneecaps
Twitter is tightening the rules for building applications that use its messaging platform, sparking outrage from twits and developers. Director of consumer product Michael Sippey blogged about changes to version 1.1 of the Twitter software interface that gives the social networking site greater control over how and where tweets …
Basic rules
1. Create new service
2. Get picked up by VC
3.Engineer massive hype
4. Get programmers and users onbaord
5. Now that you have them by the short and curlies, milk them for everything they're worth, eventually leading to
6. Massive profits
Seriously, this has been the M.O. of every major software and services company over the past thirty years. I'm still amazed by people who think these services are built to service them. Once you become dependent on a system, it's game over.
On the meaning of end-points
"The new rules alter the number of API calls third-party apps can make from different "end points" – meaning a twit's devices or PCs running that application."
I took it to mean API endpoints - i.e. the different features exposed by the API. So you could have a different rate for reading mentions than posting photos, which currently isn't supported.
Pity if they're putting the squeeze on third party apps
It's not like Twitter themselves are offering any innovation in their own apps.
Re: Pity if they're putting the squeeze on third party apps
This is part of what I said elsewhere when I read about it. Over the years the website and mobile app have grown to become almost usable but only after Twitter took some of the best bits from third-party apps. For a very long time the website was rather bland and the mobile app was awful at best. During that time it was third-party apps adding things that people wanted (longer than 140 char. tweets etc) that helped it grow and become more popular. Now that the job has been done for them they suddenly move to screw every third-party developer, the very people that helped them get to where they are.
The whole idea of cutting it down to a more Twitter-like (official I apps) experience was bad enough but this goes further than that. Make your app to our guidelines, stick to our limits or you're out of the club. Their site may be nicer and more usable now but the mobile app is still a mess that doesn't always remember position, doesn't always notify me as it should, loads image previews in a tiny box with no zoom options and worst for me is making every link you tap go through their http://t.co/ service even if it's already shortened / didn't need to be shortened. The only reason I use the official app is that it has push notifications for mentions and direct messages.
I'd rather they just be honest
Even more than the content (if you could figure out what they were saying), the style that the Twitter post was written in was offensive - it was the worst sort of business school waffle, with bullshit 4-quadrant charts (to make it look as though 3rd party Twitter-posting clients are just an insignificant part of the software using the API, of course). I would have more respect for them if they just came out and said that in 6 months they were going to cancel the API keys of all 3rd party full clients. This is clearly what they want to do, but their plan seems to be to nickle-and-dime the 3rd party developers to death with fiddly API guidelines - presumably this is so, when the Tweetbot and everyone else finally give ups, Twitter doesn't look like the bad guy - "Hey, we gave them a chance, but their client was making 61 requests every 90 seconds instead of the 30 every 45 seconds that we said they could have..."
History repeats.
The sad thing is, the kind of cretins who rely on Twitter are exactly the kind of gullible morons who've been falling for this for those decades.
Not really a surprise...
Given the number of dizzy bird icons I see when I access twitter from a desktop browser (i.e. quite a lot, and I'm not even a heavy twitter user), I'd say they've been exceeding the capacity of their servers for quite some time.
It doesn't even seem to depend on time of day. I've even seen "dizzy bird" at 9am GMT, a time which is usually good for the internet as the Americans are asleep.
Maybe they should try to target the politician loving twitter-bot hoards a little better?
I bet Tim Berners-Lee feels a bit awkward about tweeting 'This is for Everyone' to a billion people now.
Windows Phone?
"Tweets that are grouped together into a timeline should not be rendered with non-Twitter content. e.g. comments, updates from other networks."
WP does exactly that. What do MS have to say about it?
Re: Windows Phone?
>WP does exactly that. What do MS have to say about it?
"Don't worry, we're knocking up an 'SMS' which is more convenient for users and doesn't need to generate revenue in its own right so our API can remain open. But please be patient, it's going to take at least a couple of weeks."
warned you this would happen.
I've said it before - if you're basing part of your business around a service provider's 'free' API, either sign a contract with the provider, or expect to get screwed.
I gave up on twitter when they bought and wrecked tweetdeck
It's probably better just to have your app impersonate a web browser and scrap twitter.com then.
web services can change at will - especially free ones
Jeff11 beat me to it. I love free services such as twitter and gmail (not facebook so much). But:
1) If you have not paid anything for a particular service, there isn't any contract and they have no obligations towards you. If you don't like changes they have made, you really don't have any say in the matter (individually). Collectively you may have a say, but that is up to whether the provider is worried about general public opinion and keeping non-paying users happy, or if they are decided to focus on paying customers. It doesn't matter one bit if you put a lot of effort into this service -- as a user, setting up a big wall or contact list or lots of photos or what have you; or as a developer putting in a lot of effort developing a nice app or service or meta-service or whatever. That's a lot of effort on your part but on it's own doesn't make the service provider a penny.
2) Web services really are not like desktop software; if you don't like a particular software upgrade, you can choose to keep using the older version of the software. Not so for web services (in general... of course as you move from gmail or yahoo to some php software sitting on you web server, you CAN keep using the older version.. just be careful you don't run software full of security holes!)
3) They may even go out of business, or discontinue your service! I don't see twitter or gmail going down the tubes any time soon, but I've seen several cases where someone is like 1) "That was the only copy of my website!" (after Geocities went down), 2) where someone made online backups but the backup company went tits up, 3) where someone bought rights restricted audio (from Major League Baseball!) and once MLB decided to end that experiment, they didn't even keep the rights restriction server up a single extra month, OR refund the money for the audio!

about blissology and blissologist eoin finn Blissology (blis-ol-uh-jee) â noun the art of consciously finding the balance between oneâs personal desires and our impact on the web of life. It is not just a brand but a way of being. [Origin: 1990 a.d. ; Various conversations with Eoin and his good friends over tasty merlot] Blissology is a time of reflection and dialogue with others. The tendency in life is to get pulled by the forces that lull us into a state of mediocrity or to drift aimlessly though our days. Time spent mastering the skills of blissology pay off hugely in the department of lasting happiness. All important aspects of being alive stem from this mission: Morality, Environmentalism, Social Change, and Healthy Relationships of all sorts. The blissology logo/symbol has a white dot inside to symbolize the still place inside. The next flame is the orange for the flame of love that it lights in our own body mind. The next level is for our personal/close relationships, then our relationships in our communities and lastly for the environment. May we all find this perfect balance of love and selfishness so our lives are as meaningful as possible.

NFL Week 2 picks: Our Bears-Saints winner might surprise you
MARK POTASH email@example.com September 15, 2011 9:24PM
Article Extras
Related Stories
Updated: May 9, 2012 9:48AM
Cam Newton, meet Dom Capers.
Newton, the Carolina Panthers' No. 1 overall draft pick, passed for 422 yards in the Panthers' 28-21 loss to the Arizona Cardinals — the most passing yards by a rookie in his debut in NFL history.
It's possible the highly touted Newton is a transcendent quarterback who will continue to strafe NFL secondaries in his rookie season.
But more than likely he's due to be brought back to Earth almost as quickly as he skyrocketed into the NFL record book last week.
The Green Bay Packers' defense has its vulnerabilities and tends to start slow and finish fast under Dom Capers. The Saints' Drew Brees strafed the Packers for 412 yards, three touchdowns and a 112.3 rating in Week 1.
But it usually eats up young quarterbacks at any time of the season.
The Lions' Matthew Stafford threw four interceptions and had a 30.5 passer rating in his first game against Capers' defense in 2009. The Jets' Mark Sanchez threw two interceptions and had a 43.3 rating in his first game against the Packers last years.
Even the Bears' Jay Cutler, in his fourth year in the NFL, threw four interceptions in his first game against Capers' Packers defense in 2009.
Newton has more natural ability than any of those quarterbacks. But usually it takes more than that to succeed in the NFL — especially against the Packers.
Time: Noon. Line: Packers by 10. Total: 46
Records (overall/ATS): Packers 1-0/1-0; Panthers 0-1/0-0-1
Pick: Packers 31, Panthers 10.
Time: Noon, Fox-32.
Line: Saints by 7. Total: 47.
Records (overall/ATS): Bears 1-0/1-0; Saints 0-1/0-1.
Fast fact: Bears QB Jay Cutler threw 6 TDs, 0 INTs indoors last season (117.7 rating).
Outlook: If improving Bears offense takes a step forward — and Mike Martz offenses usually are better on turf than outdoors — they're going to be tough to beat. But if they cave in to the intensity of the Superdome crowd, look out.
Pick: Bears 26, Saints 23.
Time: Noon.
Line: Bills by 31/2. Total: 421/2.
Records (overall/ATS): Raiders 1-0/1-0; Bills 1-0/1-0.
Fast fact: Raiders RB Darren McFadden gained 150 yards on 22 carries vs. Broncos.
Outlook: After years of ineptitude, Raiders are becoming a pretty good team with strong offensive and defensive lines — five sacks vs. Broncos last week, with only 1 sack allowed. That makes a difference vs. teams like the Bills.
Pick: Raiders 23, Bills 10.
cowboys at 49ers
Time: 3:05 p.m.
Line: 'Boys by 3. Total: 421/2.
Records (overall/ATS): Cowboys 0-1/1-0; 49ers 1-0/1-0.
Fast fact: The 49ers, tied for 14th in sacks last year (36), had five vs. Seattle in Week 1.
Outlook: After winning in Jim Harbaugh's NFL debut with two clinching kick returns, 49ers due to fall flat against the Cowboys, who threw another win away last week vs. Jets.
Pick: Cowboys 30, 49ers 13.
Time: Noon.
Line: Lions by 8. Total: 45.
Records (overall/ATS): Chiefs 0-1/0-1; Lions 1-0/1-0.
Outlook: Disappointing Chiefs served up a reminder they only beat one winning team in '10.
Pick: Lions 27, Chiefs 17.
Time: Noon.
Line: Browns by 21/2. Total: 371/2.
Records (overall/ATS): Browns 0-1/0-1; Colts 0-1/0-1.
Outlook: Peyton Manning won seven or eight MVP awards retroactively last week.
Pick: Colts 20, Browns 17.
Time: Noon.
Line: Vikings by 3. Total: 401/2.
Records (overall/ATS): Bucs 0-1/0-1; Vikings 0-1/1-0.
Outlook: Vikes can only hope Donovan McNabb was shaking the rust off last week (7-15, 39 yards).
Pick: Vikings 17, Buccaneers 10.
Time: Noon.
Line: Jets by 91/2. Total: 381/2.
Records (overall/ATS): Jaguars 1-0/1-0; Jets 1-0/0-1.
Outlook: Jaguars' resiliency, Jets' inconsistency makes this one pretty simple: stay away.
Pick: Jets 24, Jaguars 17.
Time: Noon.
Line: Steelers by 141/2. Total: 40.
Records (overall/ATS): Seahawks 0-1/0-1; Steelers 0-1/0-1.
Outlook: Steelers won't have 7 giveaways this week. But Seattle won't allow 2 return TDs, either.
Pick: Steelers 24, Seahawks 13.
Time: Noon.
Line: Ravens by 6. Total: 371/2.
Records (overall/ATS): Ravens 1-0/1-0; Titans 0-1/0-1.
Outlook: Ravens unlikely to play as well as they did last week. But they won't have to.
Pick: Ravens 21, Titans 7.
Time: Noon.
Line: Redskins by 4. Total: 44.
Records (overall/ATS): Cardinals 1-0/0-0-1; Redskins 1-0/1-0.

EPIC Files Mandamus Petition to Compel Action on the Airport Body Scanner Program
EPIC has filed a mandamus petition with the Federal Court of Appeals in Washington, DC to require the beginning of a public comment process on the controversial airport body scanner program. One year has passed since the Court ordered the Department of Homeland Security to "act promptly" to undertake the action demanded by EPIC, but the agency has taken no action. In the petition, EPIC said that the agency's delay poses risks to travelers, defies the Court's authority, and is unlawful. EPIC asked the court to require that the federal agency receive public comments within 60 days or that it suspend the program. (Mandamus Appendix).

Parent involvement
Excellent School,Owners are Truly dedicated to the children,The best Montessori School by far in the area.
I am a former\ Montessori Teacher. This school provides a solid Montessori education. the parents have been very pleased with the teachers, the Director and the administration. The children learn a lot and participate in a wide variety of activities/projects inspire creativity. Being a part of this school provides a sense of community like we are one family. The mission of Little Flower Montessori School is to prepare each child, pre kindergarten through elementary to achieve his or her full moral, spiritual and intellectual potential in a safe and nurturing Montessori environment.. The large classrooms are not cramped and all the classrooms are well montessori equipped, there is a large play ground well secured and ample parking,close to the train station. there will be Little Flower Montessori 2 in near future. Please go and take a tour here, you will see what sets us apart from all of the rest!
We accepted enrollment on the pretense that construction would be completed in the time frame provided. We took all the steps required to make sure we can open on time but there were circumstances beyond our control which delayed all inspections. Also note that with the government shut down that occurred further delayed our progress. By a parent request we opened up a later session that ran from 3-5:45pm to help accommodate the parents. Early on in October, we suggested to parents that it might be time to look elsewhere for care and would have no problems returning their deposit and registration. If they still had faith in us, we would love to have them back once we have finally opened our doors in the new school. We tried to accommodate as many parents and their children the best that we could in the current building without jeopardizing the ratio which we strictly enforce. Unfortunately not everyone can be accommodated for the time slot requested. The school is strictly following the code mandated by the state which is determined by the age of the children in the classroom. It is not right to falsely state the wrong information that could damage the reputation of our school.
Very bad school - enrolled my son after checking few reviews..but the management is very bad. Over crowded - has been audited and they are opening a school next door for the past 3 months and it hasn't opened yet. Great Planning guys
Montessori means 30 students 1 primary teacher and 1 secondary teacher?? New definition?? This is the root cause for lack of child care and cleanliness. My child clothes explains how clean the classes and premises. This is not the first school for my child and I advice school to keep premises clean, keep student and teacher ration reasonable. Now academics, poor learning system, worst than my child's previous school. Teacher do not pay any attention what the kid is doing. Teacher cannot answer any questions related to child welfare in her presence. The greatest answer by teacher was that she cannot pay attention to each individual all the time. Parents are not allowed inside the school premises during school hours, is it a correction center/jail or school? School also offers before and after care, it would suit better if they use the word warehouse or dump yard. No teachers available during before and after care(warehouse) and kids are left by themselves. It more or less staff watching them like a live stock. If this school is over rated and a child is out performed then the reason is because of the child not by the school staff. I never recommend this school to any age of child.
Worst school ever...they started a new batch from 3.00pm to 5.45pm.which is neither morning nor afternoon. This is how they run a school.
WORST SCHOOL they gave admission and school has not yet started they said sept 23 now saying oct 28 2013 and that also not sure weather school will open
The school is overcrowded. 45 kids in one small class!!! Also, only two toilets for the 300 + students there. Focus is only on academics nothing else. Also, since the class has so many students, kids are threatened to keep quiet, otherwise they would not be able to teach anything. This really brings down the morale and creative thinking of the student. The child has to have "bubbles in your mouth", criss-cross apple sauce and hand on your knees. The child is not even allowed to touch some of the Montessori materials (there are sooo many kids there...) Please find some other good school for your child..
My son joined little flower Montessori school when he was 4.5 years old (Pre-K). My son came out with flying colors and graduated from 2nd Grade few weeks ago. Had there been 3rd grade in the school, I would have continued without any hesitation. School has a great number of truly dedicated, passionate teachers who inspire their students to excel.They are willing to help and encourage the child. As a matter of fact, they have a huge potential to expand and accommodate more students by opening news sections.
Go here, only if you like unpredictable schedule and blindly follow reviews. After recent AUDIT, they ordered full-day student to come for half-day. The half day students' schedules were sent notice to come only 2 or 3 times a week. If you are working parent, you and your kid cannot accommodate such drastic schedule changes. TALK to real Parents who were given such notices. Don't get fooled by the "Reputation Clean-up" i.e high-rated reviews posted by so-called Parents or Ex-employees. No doubt that the Teacher are good. However to know the real face of Management, ask the Principal about recent AUDIT!
I am a parent and a former employee of Little Flower Montessori School. My child attended the school at age three, today I'm very happy and proud to say she is doing extremely well in public school, thanks to the strong educational foundation she received from this school. As an ex-employee i know for a fact that they are licensed from age 2 1/2 to 13 years old. As a teacher we were asked to keep the environment clean at all times, materials and shelves cleaned and disinfected once a week, we cleaned the tables and floors during the day even though a cleaning service cleaned every evening. The school never had any issues with the health department. As for fire exit, every classroom has one, no school will be given a license to operate if they dont have enough fire exits. The playgrounds is a large playground and there is a schedule classrooms are given in which can easily fit two classes. It is so disappointing to see the negative that is writen without any facts given. I am sure a parent who had their child educated in this school would not write such nonsense. Obviously this is an unhappy employee who left the school on not so good terms and is spredding false statements.
The school is tucked in a small lane close to warehouses and such facilities. We lived less than a mile from the school and had never noticed it till our son was old enough to start school. He started there and it took him a while to settle down. The teachers were very helpful in making him feel comfortable. He now loves them dearly. The focus is very much upon learning or I did say cramming ABCs, 123s,geography,science etc. It did make me feel proud that my three year old could say the names of all the continents. But the buck stops there. The school is overcrowded. There were 28 kids in my son's class with just two teachers. I realized that only when I was assembling the goodie bag for my son's birthday. That, I felt was way too much. Also the classrooms are sort of small and I cannot imagine how so many kids were indeed accommodated. Apart from that they have absolutely no indoor play area. Every available inch is used to accommodate a child! The bottom line therefore is the teachers are sweet, the curriculum is fine. But the school is overcrowded and after the recent incident I believe the management is greedy and does not deserve to be trusted with our children.
Little Flower is a very good school. My two daughter studied there. The teachers (Principal) there are excellent and very helpful. The quality and standard of education provided is high. I recommend Little Flower to all my friends
This school is excellent in academics.. And I am still putting my kid in this school next year also.. The only reason I am doing this is because I believe In this school and I think that's what is more important..
I am a parent and I totally support this school for everything.I am aware of the problem that occurred but I appreciate the quick action taken . I would always want my child to go there and I feel this place is very safe for my child. Talking about academics ,it is brilliant and that is what I expect for my child. I am confident that everything will be resolved very soon . I would always recommend this school .
This school is very good academic wise...its really brilliant. Every parent who reads a review...actually see how the school atmosphere is and how the school is education wise....and its tidiness.... I agree with the above...good at academics...neat and tidy in school.they teach kids to be independent.Just because something happened in school doesnt mean that school in a bad position.They bought a solution immediately. Its a safe place to enroll your kid....my son is doing great in there...keep it going Little flower...
My kid is studying in Little Flower Montessori School for 3+ years now. The school provides excellent academic curriculum and gives an opportunity for every child to shine well. The teachers are highly talented, very supportive and provides constant feedback. The school provides a very good atmosphere for kids to work together on various projects and gives a strong background for their overall development. I am proud that my child is studying in this school and highly recommend this school for every parent.
I have been ardent fan of Little Flower Montessori School since I moved to NJ almost seven years back. This school is one of the very few schools that believe in real values of "over all development of a child." Versatility makes one valuable is all walks of life. I do not believe in kids becoming book warms as they are free to choose their own passion and excel within it. I would highly recommend this school as I value in giving every kid a fair chance to exhibit their true self.
i agree to the latest post. they send out from the school in the february n very short period notice. only 3 days. how can i find the other school for those 3 days... this is too much.. we have to file the case for these
Worst thing to get from the school is notice for not to send the kind anymore. That too in the month of February, for 45 Students in the class. There is a limit for greediness, not overthrowing the security of the kids. There is only one door into school and if there is any untoward incident happens, it will be a several tragedy. I did asked the Principal and she said she is taking measures,. Don't know what they are . I don't recommend and just think if your kid has to find new school in Feb/Mar, what you will do?

HELP!! SUSHI with friends WEST LA/SM/Westwood
Please help. I am having friends in from OC. They want moderate priced sushi with great rools, especially spicy tuna. HAS to be on the west side. Ambience not so important, but wouldn't hurt. Most important is yummy and under 100 dollars for 3 people. I don't want Hide or Musha. Can anyone help me out? Is there anywhere ok in Westwood? Anywhere between Westwood and the Marina. Thanks so much, and would love reponses ASAP!!
I wish I could help, but all I have is Katsuya--in Brentwood, and spendier than I think you want--but a good spicy tuna. Well, at least this will knock you back to the top of the list.
re: woofer
If you want to be right in Westwood, I like Asuka, also. I have a friend who loves Tengu. Ambiance is nice there.
Sushi Sushi on Beverly Dr near Olympic (326 1/2 Beverly Dr, Beverly Hills, CA 90212). The a la carte menu is reasonable and you can't go wrong with the Chef's Choice 8pc or 10pc. I treated friends who came into town earlier this week from Berkeley and they reported it was the best sushi they've ever had. I don't know if it betrays the kind of sushi they've had in the past but I do agree that this traditional sushi restaurant is quite the experience. :)
re: amoretignis
to meet your budget at sush sushi, you will need to be careful when ordering.
same at irori.
re: umeakai
Asakuma in MDR is a takeout joint.
re: New Trial
I haven't been to Asuka in years. What are the prices like now?
re: cupcake
We like Asuka as well. Prices are moderate and sushi tastes fresh. Also like Asakuma as umeakai mentioned.
re: Kevin B
Does Noma have good rolls?
re: Kevin B
I had been going to Noma since they opened in the early 80s. Over the past few years I noticed the quality has steadily dropped. On my last visit the toro was so stringy that I actually couldn't bite it without the sushi shredding. When I told Hank (the owner) that it didn't seem up to par he seemed more angry that I had complained than with the chef who served it.
re: whatsfordinner
That's a shame. I haven't yet noticed any drop-off.
re: umeakai
ya ... i gotta tell you, used to be a fan of tengu a few years ago - it was fun and the fish was much better. last time i was there, we had some sushi that was warm! thats just wrong. and esp when you walk out of there unsatisfied and just spent a fortune.
re: dkrocks
Thank you so much everyone!! I have made a reservation at ASUKA for tonight. I really aooreciate your help. : )
re: cupcake
I had lunch recently at Asuka after reading about the "new improved" Asuka on this website. I thought it was awful and it wasn't particularly cheap. I would go to Hide any day over this place. Hide has gone downhill lately, but it is still 10 times better than Asuka. Hope you have a better experience.
WOW, I can't believe all these people replied and no one mentioned by far the best and most moderately priced of all the westwood spots, Sushi Masa. By far the best quality of the bunch, the spicy masa roll is my favorite, and it is excellently priced, my fianancee and I ate for 66 bucks there and were stuffed last tuesday. great spanish mackeral too.
re: Centerline24
Where is Sushi Masa? I can't find it, and am very curious now!!
re: cupcake
They may have meant Sushi Masu.
Sushi Masu
1911 Westwood Blvd
Los Angeles, CA
(310) 446-4368
re: cupcake
that is what I meant, my bad, i call it sushi masa and my fiancee who goes there at least twice a week and loves Masu, always corrects me...sorry
re: Centerline24
I went to Sushi Masu for the first time a few weeks ago and really enjoyed it. The yellowtail and uni were surprisingly good. Should get you in under $100, and we looked online and actually found a 10% off coupon that you can use there. Enough for an extra roll!
I'm assuming that you already had your dinner but... if you ever need another sushi place on the cheaper side, I would say Daichan Kaiten Sushi on Sawtelle.
Its revolving sushi so its a little different and not like super gourmet or anything.. but sometimes you just want some laid-back, not expensive sushi =)
Most of their plates range from like 1.50 to 3.00 I think.. I LOVE their little crunchy rolls and every time I've been there, their fish has been pretty good.
re: rameniac
Agreed on California Roll Factory - good and BIG rolls. You get a lot for the money.
re: rameniac
Yes... CA Roll Factory is a cool, casual, go-to spot for a quick sushi fix in that area. I like the Harvey roll (the sauce is sinfully good) and order that with something a bit lighter to balance it with.
re: snooze button
i'm all about the "Scott's roll" - a no-frills roll with a bunch of fleshy fish and some shrimp tempura. whoever Scott is/was, he's a dude after my own heart! Thanks, guy!
re: rameniac
I have experimented with so many rolls at this place and have been shot down with disappointment. The Harvey is the first one I feel I struck a homerun with. So that does it. I'm having a Harvey and Scott tomorrow night and see if I can add a second roll to my repertoir. Thanks man!
re: snooze button
does anyone know how to personalize/invent their own sushi roll and get it up on the wall at california roll factory? or have they retired this practice over the years?
re: rameniac
Update: ended up going twice last week for rolls. The combo Scott/Harvey was excellent, though ordered an eel roll for the sweetness factor. 4 rolls, 1 Asahi, 1 hot green tea for $44 out the door. Realized the last time I was there that the tasty sauce that accompanies the Harvey has mayo in it... I had thought it was a cool secret ingredient.
re: snooze button
FYI, they have a "B" grade. Although I love it there, it makes me nervous.

Here are my scavenger hunt items thus far:
After waiting for a month for the Whole30 book (It Starts With Food) to come in to the library, I finally picked it up yesterday and began to read it. At the very beginning of the book one of the authors, Dallas Hartwig, talks about his first attempt to test this method of eating and how prior to that attempt, he had been suffering from tendonitis for several years. After a month on this plan, his tendonitis was gone.
Reading that, triggered in me the fact that I somehow injured my upper right arm in early February. At the end of February, I finally went to see an orthopedic surgeon who examined me and took xrays. She was uncertain what was wrong and said it could be anything from a muscle strain to a muscle tear and wanted me to see a physical therapist. I passed on PT because on March 1, I entered my health insurance plan year and had a large deductible. I knew that I would be paying out of pocket for every cent of that PT and just couldn't spend that kind of money. I have babied the arm ever since. When I must use it for something (like when I painted the closet just last week) it aches afterward and the one thing that I absolutely couldn't do was lie on it. In fact, that is how I first knew that something was wrong with it. I always slept on my right side, but when I would lie that way even for a few minutes, my arm would ache terribly.
When I read about Dallas's tendonitis, I thought about my arm. I realized that the last time it had bothered me was about a week ago and then it didn't bother me too much. I turned out the light and rolled onto my right side, where I slept soundly for much of the night. This morning my arm feels fine!
I just completed my 30 days of WHOLE30 and thought I would share what I discovered I learned about myself during this month.
1. I learned that the scale is too much of a force in my life. Without it, I tuned in to the fact that I was overeating in the first weeks on the program just by the way my body felt. I was able to make the necessary changes without stressing over a number and feeling a lot of guilt or self-deprecation.
2. I learned that I could feel completely nourished and satisfied without grains and dairy in my life. I never deprived without them. There were several times when I would encounter some food that I was giving up and feel a pang of desire, but it quickly passed. Also, there were so many foods that I love and usually deprive myself of, such as nuts, dried fruits, almond butter, etc. that I was permitted to have on this plan that I could always find a treat if I wanted one.
3. I learned that I do not need wine or beer at the end of the day in order to relax or to treat myself (though I do still enjoy it and will drink it occasionally).
4. I learned that I can control the amount of food that I eat based upon how my body feels rather than by counting calories or limiting myself in some other way (even though it took awhile for me to get it). I feel more in touch with my body and its needs than ever before.
I am not yet certain how this has affected my arthritis. I am still aware of pain, especially in my knees on stairs or inclines, though I think the pain is decreasing. I don't really expect 57 years of damage to be repaired in 30 of eating differently.
It was vital for me to stay off of the scale during this experience. I realized that I was overeating at first (I think it was in response to my feelingemotionally deprived initially because of all that I was giving up.) and I definitely gained weight because I felt larger and my clothes were tight. Because I didn't focus on a number, I was able to focus on how I felt and adjust my eating accordingly. That only happened in the last 7 - 10 days of the month, so it definitely took me awhile to adjust. Despite the initial gain, I ended the month down 4.2 pounds without ever counting a calorie or feeling deprived.
My mood is great. I feel very upbeat and motivated -- more so than I have in a long time.
I also think that my allergies are milder than they have been in months.
Overall, I think this has been a great experience for me and I am not ending a program, but beginning a new phase of my life.
I returned late yesterday afternoon from a 3-day hiking escape. It was incredible, energizing and relaxing all at once. We got in over 12 miles of hiking on each day, Monday and Tuesday. I came home ready to make a change in my eating habits. Of course, real life is often very different than the reality we imagine when we are away from home.
Prior to leaving for my trip I determined to take on the Whole30 eating challenge upon my return. I am still committed to that, however, I walked into my house upbeat and ready to make this big change and found real life waiting sullenly for me. I was quickly reminded of what my real day-to-day existence is like.
There were moments lying in bed last night, unable to sleep, that I wished I had never left. Somehow being here day-in and day-out, I have adjusted to this. Going away for more than a day, freed me of what has become normal in my household. It made my reality so obvious that it felt like I was hit in the face with it when I came back.
It is clear to me that whatever I do, will be a real struggle. It is hard to remain motivated and determined in the face of what seems hopeless on many fronts. This process may well be taken on one hour at a time. Here I go ... trying to make a change in myself in the midst of a life that feels like it is lived in quicksand.
Recently I have been surprised, pleased and humbled to be contacted by several new members asking for advice on how I have been successful in my journey. Something about my page inspired them enough to reach out to me. I have to tell you how incredibly satisfying it is to feel that I have touched someone in that way, especially when I have all the ups and downs of everyone else and sometimes feel that I am falling far short of the expectations I have for myself.
When they asked me for advice, this is what I said. I thought I would share it here for anyone who might need something like this right now and for myself to be reminded of this the next time one of the "downs" comes around.
The best advice I can give you is first of all to BELIEVE that this is possible. I was over 50 years old and 295 pounds at my highest weight before I began my journey to health and fitness. I hated everything about exercise and didn't even like taking walks.
Remind yourself regularly that you didn't get this way overnight and you aren't going to be thin and fit overnight, either. That knowledge and understanding will go a long way to keeping you on track even when you feel discouraged because the scale isn't cooperating.
Third, I would say, is to learn to forgive yourself and move on. You will slip. You will slide. It isn't how many times you fall down that matters. It is how many times you get back up. I have fallen off track many times, but I am still here and still plugging along toward my goals.
Last, but not least, I would say, follow the basics -- exercise regularly, eat high quality foods, count your calories, drink your water, get enough sleep. I can't tell you how many "lose weight fast" schemes I have tried in my life, and while I lost weight on many of them, I never could keep it off. Do you know why? Because I never developed any new habits. I simply dieted and then I didn't. When I dieted, I lost weight and when I stopped, I gained it back.
What SparkPeople teaches works. Over the months and years that it has taken me to reach this point, I have developed new habits that make me FEEL GREAT! I feel physically better, I have more energy and I am happier. Because of these changes, when I slip, slide or fall, I get back on track with those healthy habits not just to lose weight, but to regain those great feelings.
My journey has not been one of perfection, but one of improvement. I am moving fairly consistently toward a better version of me and you can do it, too!

More details about Mercedes-Benz's forthcoming Mercedes-AMG GT continue to drip out. As opposed to launching the new sports coupe all at once, the brand has been slowly divulging information like its interior and some shadowy peeks on video. Even in testing, Mercedes is being cheeky by dressing it in bright green, tiger-striped camouflage that's hard to miss, but shows little. The latest trio of videos gives us a great idea of just how the GT sounds, though.
The engine for the GT isn't officially confirmed yet, but it's rumored to be Mercedes' new 4.0-liter, twin-turbo V8 that is also going into the next C63 AMG. It's hard to make out any typical turbo whistle in the videos, but the engine definitely has a growl, whatever its layout is. It's just the kind of aggressive, angry sound a sports coupe like this should have.
The GT is confirmed to debut sometime this fall, but at the consistent rate of the released details, we should know a lot more about it by then. Scroll down to give a listen to the future Mercedes halo model throwing some revs and starting up.

Guestbook comments from the owner
We really like the dock that is now in place. It really helps in getting the canoe and kayaks in and out of the Kennebunk River. As with prior visits to Maine, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the house's location with its proximity to Kennebunkport. If offers a short walk to the Clam Shack for a lobster roll and the shops to the village. The beach is close by as well.
Having Capt. Hooks for seafood and Big Daddy's for ice cream a short drive away in Wells is another big advantage of staying at your property. Being a golfer, having ready access to great golf courses like Cape Arundel and Webhannet is another great feature.
Needless to say, our Maine vacations have been a wonderful life experience for us, our children and their spouses and especially the grand kids.

Time To Jump? - Manitoba's Burning Policy Platform
Time To Jump? - Manitoba's Burning Policy Platform
Speech by Frontier Centre President, Peter Holle, to the Transcona Rotary Club
The recent Manitoba budget saw the Selinger Government plunging in the polls thanks to its sales tax increase made possible by its gutting of the province's balanced budget law.
Meanwhile, it is embarking on a massive expansion of Manitoba Hydro in the face of dramatically changed market conditions that likely have made planned production uneconomic.
This will expose taxpayers to huge debt liabilities while dramatically raising power prices for citizens and industry.
All this will further exacerbate Manitoba's high tax/high debt/high subsidy policy model – a clear recipe for continued relative decline.
What to do?
Frontier Centre President, Peter Holle, will map out some productive policy alternatives going forward.
