Jfood needs help in MSP
- jfood Aug 20, 2008 06:15 AM
Jfood will be spending a bunch of time in Edina/Eden Prairie and is interested in understanding the food choices he will have. He will be camping out in hotels and working like a dog but will have time to explore a bit for some local chow.
Could jfood's midwest brethren help this old dog in his quest for some good food while he travels to this beautiful part of the US?
How far is jfood willing to drive and will he have a car? "Local" chow around the Edina/Eden Prairie border is more franchise or even franchise-like than it is local. If limiting yourself to that area, though, I'd recommend Campiello and Woody's. Nearby is Kincaid's, which always gets voted as one of the Top 5 restaurants, but wouldn't be one of my top 5 choices.
re: Brad Ballinger
Car - yes.
To be honest, jfood is not even sure how far these two towns are from downtown but he would like to keep the drives <20 minutes if possible..
Unless you're leaving right at 5pm, all of Minneapolis proper and the inner-ring suburbs are 20 min from Eden Prairie. St. Paul is only 30 minutes. Use the car and use Google maps and you'll have a good time. MSPD hit the best choices for EP and Edina.
OK...let's see if MSPD can match the stylistic acumen of jfood.
MSPD might not be so fast to whisk jfood out of Edina. When MSPD travels for work, MSPD often enjoys noshing in the hotel room instead of full-on dining out. MSPD likes some of the noshing opportunities presented by places in Edina, especially out of the "50th and France" area of Edina (at 50th and France Avenue). The Premier Cheese Shop is the most noteworthy stop. MSPD recommends some time to nibble on cheese and strolling around the area (especially if jfood is looking for a little trinket or something to bring back to Mrs. jfood if such a person exists). Also do a search for Broder's Pasta Bar which is roughly in that area.
MSPD also likes to send MSPD's friends over to Patrick's Bakery off of Penn Avenue. They not only have nice French bakery stuff, but also some delicious savory foods and frou-frou burgers that MSPD has been wanting to try for a long time and about which he has heard great things.
MSPD also recommends ignoring the haters and going to Punch Pizza if you're in that part of Eden Prairie and enjoy neapolitan pizza and/or nice salads. The pizzas are appropriately sized for solo consumption. MSPD also thinks the bar at Redstone (the first location of a very small, but expanding local chain) is a good place to have a meal. When not on an expense account MSPD thinks the prices are on the wrong side of the price-to-value ratio (e.g. $14 burgers and sandwiches, etc.) but ignoring the price, it's a safe place with good food, a handful of TVs to entertain the solo diner and lots of people far prettier than MSPD (good people watching).
MSPD likes the car so MSPD agrees that no visit to MSP is complete without enjoying our beautiful downtown. Do get down there and circle Lake Calhoun, take in the bustling Uptown (Lake/Hennepin Ave interection) and work your way up into downtown Mpls. MSPD would also encourage more specific inquiries...any specific things you enjoy and/or are looking for?
Welcome and I hope....er.....MSPD hopes you have a good visit.
If you like BBQ you might want to try an out of the way place in Eden Prairie - Baker's Ribs.
Want a good hamburger? The Lion's Tap would be the place in Eden Prairie.
re: Davydd
jfood went to both websites, thank you. does bakers ribs have a restaurant or is it just catering? how about to-go as well?
Jfood comes to MSP! what fun!!!
unfortunately edina/eden prairie are not really my stomping grounds. from what i know & understand, eden prairie is extremely chain-y, edina is quite a bit better, with some established chowish places. i would absolutely trust all of MSPD's recs, as he has yet to steer me wrong. i can second patrick's bakery, broder's deli, and punch-- i know you are quite fussy about your hometown pizza, Jfood, the neapolitan style will be a change of pace, but hopefully a delicious one.
i love lion's tap, it's a very unique and venerable, locally famous burger place, but it's kinda truck-stoppy, if you know what i mean. i don't know if i can picture the person i picture Jfood being, hanging out and having a burger in that kind of environment, but otoh it might be fun--they do have some good burgers if you are out that way, & have appropriate expectations, who knows. . .
i do know enough about the western suburbs' roadways to know that the newly completed 312 highway is an extremely quick route to get into minneapolis proper, and depending on where you are in edina, south minneapolis and uptown's offerings are all within reach. i strongly suggest coming further into the city for several evening meals, to where the true deliciousness is! depending on how long you will be staying, you can enjoy several very very good fine dining meals downtown/uptown. on the cheap eats/lunches front, vietnamese/se asian, mexican, & east african are cuisines MSP does very well. MSP is also very locovore-ish and i'd rec a visit to one of our restaurants that specializes in local game, veggies, cheese, and other fine local food products.
i don't know about your timeline, but two big events are about to happen in MSP-- the state fair, and the republican natl. convention in st. paul. the fair would be an absolute hoot to visit, particularly if you've never been to a midwestern state fair. scads of foods tending toward the deep-fried and silly, but it's possible to eat well and deliciously there, & your friends at home will be so jealous! LOL! on the flip side of the coin, & without trying to get political at all, it's safe to say the RNC will clog up traffic and finer restaurants on that side of the river, with overflow into mpls-- the further west you stay, the better your odds of a quiet dinner.
welcome! i await the specific questions you'll post, Jfood, & will help as much as i am able. :)
I concur with exploring the 50th and France area - also, in the Galleria in Edina there is a new restaurant called Crave that I can't vouch for but has gotten a bit of buzz. Also in the Galleria is Good Earth, which is generally reliable and good.
In the nearby SW Mpls neighborhood is Cafe Maude, which is talked about quite highly on Chowhound.
Cafe Maude
5411 Penn Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN 55419
Good Earth Restaurant
3460 Galleria, Edina, MN 55435
Crave Restaurant
3520 Galleria, Minneapolis, MN 55435
re: cheetobrain
I really enjoyed Cafe Maude ( http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/409178 ), Crave was pretty good (but I like Via across the street a bit better), but I have to disagree, respectfully, about Good Earth. I've been to it a couple of times trying to give it a chance, but I find the food quite dry and not very flavorful.
Broder's Pasta Bar is not far from Edina, and Blackbird and Heidi's are also neighborhood-y type chef-driven places which I think are one of the Twin Cities' strong points. If you're willing to drive into South Minneapolis, those are good choices, as are Corner Table and Cafe Levain, two of my favorites.
Hope you enjoy your time here, jfood. Please report back and tell us how you enjoyed our chow!
Corner Table
4257 Nicollet Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55409
Blackbird Cafe
3800 Nicollet Avenue, Minneapolis, MN 55409
2903 Lyndale Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN 55408
Broders' Southside Pasta Bar

6740 France Ave, Edina, MN 55435
Cafe Levain
4762 Chicago Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55407
Because I know jfood is discriminating, I would recommend Heartland for a great meal with all local ingredients, excellently executed. That's in St. Paul. As mnitchals says, nothing is that far away if you're not in rush hour. And if work is pressing, the wine bar there would be a good choice. Most of the same menu is available there in a relaxing but less formal setting.
I think jfood would also like Corner Table in south Minneapolis. A small place with excellent local food. Not that far for jfood from the Edina area.
This is an excellent time to come. All the local produce is at its peak and these places will be shining.
One caveat: if your two weeks falls during the Republican convention taking place in St. Paul in a couple weeks, things may be a little more crowded.
Have a wonderful visit here.
Your chow sister, karykat
If you're longing for sushi, the downtown location of Origami is one of my favorite sushi places anywhere. Fresh, inventive, and the bar is a great place to sit and have a good meal while traveling solo without being bothered or feeling awkward. Hell's Kitchen for breakfast is also a favorite...a bit touristy but man the food is so good who cares?
re: soupkitten
Was waiting for some more data point since last week was in and out in one day (a very long day from CT). Went to Campiello's for lunch and ordered the skirt/hanger steak. Very nicely prepared, a good piece of meat, only one slice was a little too grizzly. A nice salad on top with a tatsy dressing. Others ordered pizza and pasta. Both looked very good. Portions and prices reflected lunch menu.
Back again for 2 nights this week then skipping next week during RNC, then back the week after.
BTW - the cheesesteak at the airport ain;t so bad and the cheese and crackers in the Northwest lounge help pass the time as well.
re: jfood
They used to have string cheese in addition to the Tilamook cheddar. Not sure what happened to that.
If you check the fridge, you'll note little baggies of celery sticks and baby carrots.
I like the snickerdoodle cookies for no particularly good reason.
Also note that the NW World Club on the C concourse (near C15) has Summit EPA on tap - a local treat!
Also note that there are several nice local restos well-represented at the airport:
French Meadow - tasty baked goods and vegetarian breakfasts and lunches (top end of E concours, and across from F4)
Ike's Steak House - good old-fashioned steaks and fish (Crossings where E concourse starts)
Axel's Woodfire - steaks and pizza (Crossings)
D'Amico - tasty Italian food worth going out for (next to the food court around F8)
re: Loren3
Thanks L
No string cheese last week and jfood had to push the healthy junk to the side to get to the cheese for the butterfly butter crackers. The oatmeal raisin cookie was pretty good as well. Now if jfood can find some bottled water that would be nice.
re: Loren3
There's also surprisingly decent Chinese food at "Wok and Roll" (at least the location on concource C.
The key there is to order off their menu, and not from the steam table. Order off the menu, and they'll prepare your meal to order, and give you a HUGE portion for less money than the junk on the steam table. A flight attendant from Japan once suggested that I try their Singapore Rice Noodles - she was right on with that suggestion.
Is it a meal I'd go out of the way for? No. But, if you're in the airport and looking for something decent, it is a surprisingly good option.
For whatever reason, I've always been let down by the stuff that bears the name of local restaurants. None are actually operated by the restaurant - they're all operated by the same food service company. So, I've always found myself let down by the service, the quality, or both.
For fancy dining I would do the 50th and France area-Tejas if its still there-tapas food-expensive, Broder's-great pasta bar-see comments below, honestly the hot place is Cafe Maude which is alot closer to your area. If you like a lot more casual and local flavor in that area I would check out: http://www.mattsbar.com/ - Home of the juicy lucy burger! - http://www.pepitosrestaurant.com/ - Decent Mexican lots of fun high spirits. - http://twincities.citysearch.com/revi... - Fireside Pizza-Best Pizza in that Neighborhood.(I think the whole city, Pizza Luce-2nd).
My favorites are Modern Cafe in NE Minneapolis or those in the Uptown area-tons of good places there. Campaniello's. D'Amico & Sons, the Galleria has some nice restaurants in that area.
Its my hometown and when i go back thats all I do is eat out, and don't be put off by any attitude you get in the more refined neighborhoods-they can't live in NYC so they think their attitude is justified...they just need to get over the excitement that all the new gastropubs brought to the town, I mean hello its 2008! Been there done that...and SUVS are going out of style minnesotans...let's protect whats left of our uber-clean environment?
re: chrisinroch
Yes, Punch Pizza has a location in Eden Prairie.
re: Davydd
My list of chow worthy western suburb places:
Na's-Thai (Chanhassen)
Punch-Pizza (EP)
Pho 83-Vietnamese (Shakopee)
Baker's-Ribs (EP)
My Love-Mexican (Chaska)
Please note these are mostly ethnic but worth checking out.

text: My husband is getting a job offer today. If he gets it money wont be a problem anymore and I should be able to just stay home with my kids. In the new year I will be taking care of just my son's best friend (3) and his brother (1), but its more of friendly favor thing. Not really running as a dayhome, but being more of like a drop in babysitter for friends. It will be awesome I think as I still will get paided, but will still do my running around like groceries and what not. I thought about not taking them in, but they are good people, never argue about anything and also WANT to spend as much time as possible with their kids dropping off at 8 and picking up at 4. And I know me and think that I have to do something involving some kind of work or I get bored. Next April we will be going to Hungary to visit my husbands family for the first time so extra money for thta would be awesome I think.

Transmission vs. Transformation
It has been said that training is a form of transmission. Sounds like a sneeze! Maybe it is a good analogy. Although, its distribution can go far and wide, and one never knows who will catch it. Transmission imparts or hands down information from one to the other. In most formats, training is a one-way transmission that (hopefully) reaches others.
Learning, on the other hand, has been called transformational. It involves inquiry and often results in a personal quest or exploration much like a search mission. More often than not, the journey involves many — including those who provide orienteering support. The transformation includes exploring the unknown with concentration, discipline, fitness, and the wise use of available support systems.
What is even more remarkable is the fact that the camp community is a learning place of transformation. Each counselor has the opportunity to be a transformational leader, offering orienteering by helping others to interpret the surroundings in order to capture teachable moments and opportunities for adaptation. We are so much more than a seasonable sneeze!

Invasive Weeds Awareness Week
Effective Date: Monday, June 16th, 2014
WHEREAS, Alaskas indigenous plants color the great Alaskan landscape and provide residents with bountiful, life-sustaining resources; and
WHEREAS, the introduction and spread of invasive and noxious weeds threaten our Alaska environment and economy by impacting the health and beauty of our valued agriculture, fishery, tourism, and subsistence resources; and
WHEREAS, invasive weeds and agricultural pests spread aggressively and are easily transported on equipment and recreational vehicles not properly cleaned, contaminated forage, and nursery stock. If not properly managed, weed infestations can result in agricultural crop loss, clogged waterways, degraded salmon spawning habitat, and displacing of migratory bird shelter and food sources; and
WHEREAS, Alaska is at the forefront of invasive weed prevention because of its geographic setting and restricted state entry points; and has the ability to eradicate invasive weeks found in our great state; and
WHEREAS, the Department of Natural Resources manages noxious weeds, invasive plants, and agricultural pests in order to protect Alaskas valuable resources.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Sean Parnell, Governor of the State of Alaska, do hereby proclaim
June 22-28, 2014 as:
Invasive Weeds Awareness Week
in Alaska, and ask all Alaskans to educate themselves and raise awareness on the impacts of invasive weeds and how to stop their introduction and spread in Alaska.
Dated: June 13, 2014

Nitish Kumar's BJP cushion is now a matter of past. After his JDU severed its 17-year-long ties with the NDA in the wake of Narendra Modi's appointment as BJP's Central Election Committee chairman, Kumar is a forlorn politician now.
Even as the Bihar Chief Minister managed to win a trust vote with the help of Congress and some sundry independents, his image as a politician has taken a severe beating.
By snapping ties with BJP on the issue of Narendra Modi, Kumar has made his intentions clear. There are no two opinions that Modi's new appointment is just one step away from him being declared as BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate. This didn't go down well with Nitish who is paranoid of Modi's rise. But why? With just 20 MPs in his kitty, Kumar sees himself as a contender for the Prime Minister. This is nothing but a joke.
Kumar always saw Modi as a hurdle between him and his perceived Muslim vote bank. This was precisely the reason the Bihar Chief Minister didn't let his Gujarat counterpart enter Bihar to campaign for the BJP. But Nitish who is obsessed about Godhra ad nauseam has failed to recognise the fact that minorities in Gujarat having had their much-needed political space and peace have clearly preferred Modi. Even it is unfair to expect this from someone like Nitish Kumar — who toured Pakistan to woo Muslim votes back home – realising the very fact.
JD (U)-BJP Split: Nitish betrayed people of Bihar, says Sushil Modi
[jwplayer mediaid="90703″]
Nitish now simply thrives on communal agenda. He is eying on the whopping 17 per cent Muslim votes in Bihar and for that he has embraced a calculated risk. But he should not forget that there are two other key players – RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav and LJP chief Ram Vilas Paswan – who have been nurturing the same vote bank since long. In addition, there is always a Congress which is an old player of minority vote bank.
Nitish Kumar's sudden exit from the NDA should be attributed to his political insecurity after the recent by-polls results. Remember, Kumar's JDU lost miserably in Maharajganj Lok Sabha by-election. In contrast, the BJP swept all six by-elections in Gujarat, thanks to Narendra Modi.
The Bihar Chief Minister will go down in history as one of the most opportunist politicians. Kumar who has secretly cultivated a Third Front option before leaving the NDA is now hobnobbing with Congress. This is not to forget that his long political career survives on anti-Congress movement.
Nitish Kumar has not just betrayed the BJP, but by continuing as a Chief Minister after winning a trust vote on the crutches of Congress, he insulted the mandate given to him in the 2010 Assembly election. Come election, the JDU must pay the price. On the otherhand, the BJP which has been liberated from an intimate enemy, stands rock solid. The party has made it clear that there is no rethink on Narendra Modi. Now, there is a feel-good factor amongst the BJP cadre in Bihar who have been long rallying behind their favourite leader.
The kind of support Modi is getting, it won't be a difficult task for the BJP to trounce its former ally JDU and sweep the Hindi heartland with the 'Nation First' slogan in the next poll.

UPDATE: Fri 4:52 PM, Dec. 27, 2013
WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) -- A man accused of fatally stabbing his friend at an oil field crew camp in Tioga has waived extradition from Wisconsin.
Ryan Anderson, of Iron River, Mich., is charged with murder for the March slaying of Christopher King.
Anderson was out on bond when he was arrested Dec. 18 in Vilas County on a drunken driving charge.
The Williston Herald reports a judge revoked his bond because he was to avoid alcohol and not leave the state.
Anderson will be returned to North Dakota and is scheduled to stand trial starting Feb. 10 on the murder charge.

SLIFF celebrates its sweet sixteenth with a two-week party.
Dennis Brown and Paul Friswold suss out the local theater scene.
The Great Russian Nutcracker comes to town
Day of the Dead Beats
Beats the heart of St. Louis
Toshinori Mogi tattoos old-school
Rigoletto returns
Catch The Blue Bird
And spread local artistic cheer
Tartan Day comes early
Matthew Rush is all over Faces
It's more than a theme, it's the truth
Rising from the runway
And back in song
Kwanzaa celebrates the virtues of African-American culture
He's in
Rivane Neuenschwander's wish ribbons
Reduced Shakespeare Company crams it for you
A monkey gets its wings
It's Jamie Farr as George Burns
And the water's wonders?

Takashi Horisaki strips down
He's a fire-starter
Two running shoes, that is
It's the Big Show at the Commonspace
Building a bridge to a future meal
The spicy monarch
It's a bike thing
Someone's in the kitchen with Grandma
Urban Challenge demands intelligence
Mom and Dad are cool with it
Navajo weavings tell stories
The Arch moves us
Put some variety in your Lenten diet
Miller's crossings
The whole thing makes sound
But for a good cause
But Diane Rademacher found it
Beneath the skin of FURRY

Freedom Lyrics - Five Pointe O
portraits of heathens hang, while heroes die on our t.v. screen
not a soul in sight
just a coroner who can't sleep,
because of what he sees when he dreams at night
the corpses stare at him with open arms and wide open eyes
this is not a dream
just wake up and see what i mean
what a tale
we have failed
paradise lost in the midst of this freedumb
(you let me down!)
where world religion has had a suicidal theme
you'll find more demons in gods than you'll find on these corrupted streets
'bold statements from a liar'
your beliefs are broken so, danger, danger, hide or retreat
in god we will contradict
now let the truth be released
of untold tales and mistruths
bring forth the whole world to see
that your manmade faith and your contagious 'steepled casino' cult
is just a lie
keep your security
i don't need you
keep your stability
i don't need you
you keep your guarantee
i don't need you
keep your book of faith
can't see through false freedom's eyes
they told their tales
now shotgun shells
will send their souls
back to hell
all has failed
nothing's well
your secret lies
in this well...
too close to bottom...
impulse suffer, reflex beating from your mind
freedom, the word that means blind
hatred, swells up inside from this freedom
oh well
you suffer
no one lives to tell
oh well
it's over
no one lives to tell
too close
this well
too close...

- Very Good!CorkedVIPDined on 10/31/2014Went two nights in a row. Foods great! Tried multiple dishes from all sides of the menu. Best dinning option in LanaiSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ExcellentYumyumVIPDined on 8/23/2014The best restaurant my wife and I have been to. Unequaled food, service, and attention to detail. The food is also unique and it is an extremely enjoyable experience. A must go when in the area. We went three times in four nights. Different wait staff each time but equally great.Special Features:
- The following 18 reviews are from the Nobu Lanai - Four Seasons Lanai reviews archive.
- Not enough bang for my buckkentuckyveganDined on 7/6/2014During my stay on Lana'i, I knew I would love to splurge for just one night at a fancy restaurant. From all that I had seen and heard, Nobu's seemed like a good place to go, but I left feeling rather disappointed. While the atmosphere and scenery was great, I wish that they would not rely on that so much, because I felt that I paid way too much for food that I know I could find cheaper somewhere else, or better yet, make myself. I also felt cheated because my server failed to mention that the bottle of Voss water I asked for would cost me $9; I know I should have asked for the price myself but wow, what a rip off. I basically felt this place was an almost $100 mistake, and I really expected better from such a high-end place.Special Features:
- Amazing. Not much else can be said.theillienDined on 7/5/2014Understandably, when dining here, you're likely to be staying at one of the two Four Seasons resorts. You should already have high expectations. They are met. A lot of five-star dining establishments are likely to be given that rating based on the quality of the food, the atmosphere, and the attention to detail. This restaurant is no different in that regard. However, it has one thing many five-stars won't: An amazing view. Perhaps that falls under atmosphere, but how many five-stars in Manhattan can claim the same? As can be expected the table staff are knowledgeable. They share duties with enthusiasm. They are gracious and grateful. If the other Nobu restaurants are anything like this one it will be well worth the treat to yourself.Special Features:
- Always fabulous!XavierVIPDined on 7/3/2014We are never disappointed when dining at Nobu. Always fresh, in fact the majority of the greens came from local farms. Creative entrees.Special Features:
- Nobu - LanaiFoodieloverVIPDined on 5/24/2014Apparently, the restaurant was in renov'? We were sat outside in the main terrace area-althoug we had an awesome view. Our service by "Blake" was excellent, he was very thorough and informative but not in your face. Our favorite and a must to try is the Hamachi Tiradito style sashimi ...excellent! Blake also made our "birthday celebration" noted on our dessert ( Banana/ caramel with croutons)very courtious of him. Overall, a must place to dine for foodies who appreciates fresh raw fish, Japanese Peruvian fusion style.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- wish i could dine here more oftenluluDined on 4/1/2014love nobu! wish i could dine here more often. nobu on lanai is very special. waikiki nobu is nice but nothing compares to what lanai nobu has to offer. nothing like what we expected. menu selections and server descriptions turned out heavenly oral sensations. service outstanding as it should be but not intrusive. selections out of this world. flavors to die for. unexpected combinations. a very pleasant surprise in one of my favorite places, the island of lanai.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- NobusAdaeDined on 2/26/2014I felt like I was eating in the hotel lobby. When I asked to me moved to the outdoor space, the host stated we could not and she would move us once a table was open. However, we were there for over three hours and she never moved us. The food was great, but it would have been much better to have a more pleasant environment. We went to the restaurant for my birthday and it was good food and we loved our waiter, but the hostess and the table in the lobby spoiled things.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food was good, but the valueOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 2/22/2014Food was good, but the value is horrible. Next time I'd rather support local places than a celebrity chef.
- Delicious Food & Many ChoicesLanaiFansDined on 11/26/2013Loved the spinach salad and this place has so many interesting dishes and dining options! Of course the view of Manele Bay and the Pacific doesn't hurt either!
- ExcellentHeiferDined on 11/16/2013Ambiance, staff, food, everything was wonderful. Normally, the restaurant would be in the leeward side of the building, so not windy. It was "Kona" winds (from the opposite direction from normal), so a bit windy, but still a beautiful spot. They could have turned off the fans to help with the wind since was not needed. The food was excellent, however, the ceviche was a bit lean on the fish (only 3 pieces of octopus...that was it, no fish as represented)...but it was still delicious. Would definitely recommend to all who visit Lanai!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great evening at NobuHawaii50Dined on 11/9/2013The food preparation and presentation at Nobu is always wonderful. And at this Nobu, there are great views of the ocean in an open air setting of Manele Bay at Lanai. The only thing That was a minor problem is the "over-attentiveness" of the wait staff. They seem to be there constantly picking up plates, filling water, etc. It sounds like a weird thing to complain about, but you can feel them hovering waiting for some way to clean the table. You can hardly have a conversation w/out stopping as arms come by to pick up plates, bowls, and utensils. A small problem, but bothersome. Otherwise the dining and food at Nobu was terrific as usual.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Really good.FoodloverVIPDined on 10/5/2013Very good sushi very good food. The price seems a little high for what you get, but this is Nobu.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- UnderwhelmedStevennchbVIPDined on 9/21/2013Having had incredible experiences at other Nobu locations, where you can't wait for the next dish to come out, we were seriously disappointed with our meal. Our first two dishes were very good, including a black cod in Miso and another sashimi dish that had incredible spices, but were followed by just so-so sushi (one the specialty of the house!) and even the local poke trio (unique to Lanai) was just okay. We really expected this to be a highlight of our stay, and other guests we spoke with shared our disappointment. Cannot recommend at the prices charged.Special Features:
- Best Dinner in LanaiJuanVVIPDined on 9/6/2013Although pricey the food was outstanding. However most food in the island is so really a good value for the money. The yellowtail with jalapeño sashimi was out of this world as was the salmon roll and the fish and chipsSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nobu Lanai exceeds expectations!Hawaii50Dined on 8/17/2013Nobu in Lanai was spectacular! The food was great as was the service staff and the ambience of the place. We had a table on the veranda area with a spectacular view of the pool and ocean while eating. The presentation of the meal was wonderful and the wait staff were extremely knowledgable. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants a special night out in Lanai.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Unbelievable SpotrtadpDined on 8/13/2013I could not say enough about Nobu. The food and service were impeccable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always a nice time.FoodloverVIPDined on 7/14/2013Always a great place to have sushi and wonderful food. We will definitely go again.Special Features:
- Great food. After a plannedOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 6/18/2013Great food. After a planned renovation later, it'll look like a proper Nobu's.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Estimate made by Brazilian researchers in collaboration with colleagues from France and USA was published in the journal Nature Climate Change
The reduction of soil carbon stock caused by the conversion of pasture areas into sugarcane plantations – a very common change in Brazil in recent years – may be offset within two or three years of cultivation.
The calculation appears in a study conducted by researchers at the Center for Nuclear Energy in Agriculture (CENA) of the University of São Paulo (USP) in collaboration with colleagues from the Luiz de Queiroz College of Agriculture (Esalq), also at USP.
The study also included researchers from the Federal Institute of Alagoas (IFAL), the Brazilian Bioethanol Science and Technology Laboratory, the Institut de Recherche pour le Développement in France and Harvard University, Colorado State University and the Shell Technology Center Houston in the United States.
Findings from the project "Soil carbon stocks on land-use change process to sugarcane production in South-Central Brazil," carried out with funding from FAPESP, were described in an article published in the online version of the journal Nature Climate Change.
"The study indicates that the soil carbon balance of pasture areas converted for the cultivation of sugarcane designed for ethanol production is not as negative as originally estimated," said Carlos Clemente Cerri, project coordinator and researcher at CENA.
According to Cerri, soil from pasture areas has a carbon stock whose volume varies only slightly over the years. However, the process of preparing this type of soil for conversion to sugarcane plantations causes part of the carbon stock to be emitted into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide (CO2).
In contrast, depending on the type of management, the introduction of sugarcane to pasture areas could compensate for, or even add to, the initial soil carbon stock when the organic matter and plant residue penetrate the ground.
Moreover, the ethanol produced from sugarcane grown in these areas over time ultimately offsets the CO2 emissions that occur during the conversion process because biofuel contributes toward reducing the burning of fossil fuel, explained the researcher.
The researchers conducted measurements and collected 6,000 soil samples from 135 regions in south-central Brazil, which is responsible for more than 90% of Brazil's sugarcane production.
At each of the sites, soil samples were collected from areas of sugarcane cultivation and from other areas to be used as reference. These reference areas included pastures, annual cropland (soybean, sorghum and corn) and Cerrado native vegetation.
According to the researchers, the study findings could contribute toward guiding expansion policies for sugarcane production aimed at producing ethanol to ensure the biofuel's sustainability - Ethanol demand in Brazil is expected to jump from an annual total of 25 million liters to 61.6 billion liters by 2021.
The professor indicated that to reach this number, the area of sugarcane production in Brazil would need to expand from the current 9.7 million hectares to 17 million hectares.
Cerri notes that among the options for reaching the target area, the priority for expansion of production is expected to be the conversion of degraded lands, principally those used as pastures, into sugarcane plantations.
Between 2000 and 2010, three million Brazilian hectares were converted to sugarcane cultivation areas. More than 70% of this land consisted of pastures, and 25% had been used for growing grains, said the study's researchers.

As a teacher in the New York City public school system, Tim O'Mara may have learned a thing or two about navigating a crowd. That will be a good skill to have during his book signing at Murder by the Book, since this popular author will be on hand to speak and sign books for avid fans. His latest work, Crooked Numbers, is a compelling read about finding the truth to a horrendous crime committed on two very sheltered, very dead kids in Manhattan. He's a true wordsmith, and it would be poor judgment — much like what the characters in his new novel show — to miss an event like this.

Wed 30 Jan 2013 The item I bought arrived quickly with updates from the seller so we knew the order was being processed. The rattle was beautifully presented and it was just as I hoped it would be, it was of good quality and had a 'weight' to it that meant it was a nice item to hold, even though it's just for decorative purposes.

Short and sweet.
Arrogant owner, poor quality Quads with many faults.
Only reason used was for unlimited Kms.
Big mistake.
Quads issues were:
Faulty Ignition, Pulling to left of the steering, swapped Quad after much argument and "its up to you" attitude.
Next quad rode better but no lights and next to no brake fluid in either front or back breaks and park brake was useless on both.
Avoid at all costs

Why David & Anita chose Whitefish
This property is very special to us. We lived in the home when we were first married years ago - at which time we gutted and remodeled the inside. It was home during the birth of our first child and possesses many wonderful & fond memories. We later moved away and rented the house out, only to miss it so much that we returned ten years later and lived in the house again with our now large family. But it was worth watching the joy in the children's eyes being on the farm with all the adventures it has to offer. It was during this second move back into the home that the additional living room and bathroom were constructed to accomodate all of us. We truly hope you enjoy your stay in the home as much as we have loved it all these years, and as much as we enjoy our life on our farm!
Guestbook comments from the owner
Enjoyed our stay very much! Great location for all the things we wanted to do. Would love to visit again!
The location here was great to take in some of the fun and festivities around July 4th celebrations. Very comfortable and all the little "extras" provided was a nice touch! Thanks!

Daniel Blumen wants to welcome you to Atlanta. The soon to be 13 year old and his family have put together a charming rap video to say as much.
Daniel's Bar Mitzvah is set for this coming May and instead of making up a slew of cards to mail out, the family decided to do something a little more creative. Their Save the Date video is a lovable remake of 2002′s popular "Welcome to Atlanta" music video by Jermaine Dupri and Ludacris.
Rapping lines like, "Now I get top billing and I'm just chilling. Just wish I weren't allergic to Penicillin," Daniel is definitely the star of the video, but staying true to the original, there are plenty of big name cameos. Throughout, Daniel is shown hanging with Mayor Kasim Reed, "talking much smack with Shaq and Barkley," DJing with Frank Ski, and even Ne-Yo makes an appearance.
The video features shots from all the Atlanta hot spots like Turner Field, World of Coca-Cola, the TNT studios, and Fernbank Museum of Natural History. Most of Daniel's (or D Mazel Tov's) lyrics are Bar Mitzvah themed – "Just read from the Torah…and when it's finished, you know I'm not a kid anymore-ah."
"We wanted to do something kind of fun to get people excited [about the Bar Mitzvah]," Liz Price, Daniel's mother, told ABC News. Price said the inspiration came from seeing a New York friend's own Save the Date video fashioned as a remake of Jay-Z's "Empire State of Mind."
"We wanted to make it about Atlanta," Price said while talking about the choice of "Welcome to Atlanta."
Price said Daniel familiarized himself with the song (the clean version) and began writing the lyrics with a little help from the family's Bar Mitzvah DJ, DJ Keith. Most of the footage around town was shot all in one day and all the production was handled by Gabi Chennisi, Brenden Duncombe-Smith, and DJ Keith.
When asked how the family managed to pull together the impressive cast of celebrities they got for the video, Price said that it "all happened through friends of friends."
Daniel will turn 13 on Friday, May 10, but he's hoping friends and family can make his Saturday "Bar Mitzvah day" where the "party won't stop till Sunday mornin'."

Three more pages (through 29). These three covered the supply system. It's VERY complex compared to F&E, an extraordinary amount of fuss and bother for something that (to my mind) the staff weenies take care of without bothering us command-grade combat officers. I know enough not to outrun my supplies, so why should I have to do all of this work? The system is seriously different from F&E, which concerns me. It also concerns me that the system Jay is coming up with is going to generate zillions of "new planets" not on the F&E map, and I am not sure that I want them in the gazetteer. I certainly have no time to vette them. There is also the point that a "marked on the map planet" in F&E generates more money than six blank hexes, each with 50 colony planets, and yet Jay's system is drawing supply from those newly named and generated colony planets. This leads to a mountain of concern. His system won't work without an entire book of new maps with zillions of new colony worlds, and I'm simply NOT going to make those maps and colony worlds an official part of the SFU knowledgebase.

I got two pages (and change) done today, but ran into a roadblock. Jay's next section is his command rating thing. He made up a whole new system which is radically different from the one used by SFB and F&E, and needs to do it over using the SFB-F&E system. (His system produces totally different fleets, and won't work. Licensign requires a degree of consistency between all of the games of the universe, and if he's going to have a command system, it has to produce the same results.) Also, his scenario set up system needs to cover SFB, FC, and Starmada (not just FC) which simply means whenever he says "FC" he needs to replace that with "FC, SFB, or Starmada" but I will let him do that rather than taking a whole day to do it for him.

24 Aug: I completed the next step in fixing the Fed Admiral technology rules.
3 Sept; I sent Jay W another eleven pages of Fed Admiral.
9 Sept: Worked on Fed admiral.
12 Sept: I did Jay's updates to 12 pages of Fed Admiral.
24 Sept: I spent most of the day doing four pages for Fed Admiral. While Jay got better on his formatting (he's still far from perfect) his scenario generator rules needed some work to clarify issues. I am sure that Jay knows exactly what they mean and do, but I am also sure that nobody else can be sure. So, they got some work, some rewording and reworking. All of this is done on the basis of sending the changes back to Jay for his review and approval; nothing is done over his objection of behind his back.
25 Sept: I had decided to work on Fed Admiral all day, and that's what I did, but 4 pages of it went well and then I ran into Jay's FASCRs combat system, which is a mess. (The system is missing some key rules like what a squadron is, and contradicts SFU knowledgebase in many places, enough that it cannot be done under the requirement for consistency in the Paramount contract. )I sent it back to him to be done over.

This is definitely now a 2012 product.
I have four major things for the fall of 2011.
CL44, the highest priority.
Anything Mongoose wants me to look at, do for them, find for them, advise them on, etc. which is taking about 5 times as many hours as planned. (I'll wimp out on that one and say nobody could have predicted how much work this would take but maybe somebody should have been able to tell.)
Star Fleet Marines (which may also have to be delayed, no word yet). This one is my @#$% fault in that I did a design years ago, some playtesters dabbled at it for a while and said it was fine, so I put it on the schedule, then when the counters came in I sat down to enjoy playing it and it was NOT fine and basically had to be trashed and done over. I am about halfway through with that. The infantry works, but I have yet to redo the armor and the shuttles/gunboats.
Fed Admiral: My fault here, in that my enthusiasm for the project (Jay is downright infectious! I love the guy's passion) got me to put it on the schedule without seriously checking the workload required. Some of that is normal editing stuff. (I'd rather have a well-designed game full of typos that a perfectly proofread game that you cannot play.) Some of that is missing rules (which I just have to identify and tell Jay to go write, something editors have been doing for game designers for decades). Some if it is SFU compliance, which, again, is just point it out to Jay and let him go fix it. (If a DN can command 10 ships in SFU, it cannot command 40 in FA.) One can argue that Jay should have done a better manuscript but then I didn't get FC right the first time. (It's now on revision six with a half a page of corrections to even that.) It's a huge book (something over 200 pages) and it's slow progress (every few pages I have to send them back to Jay for fixes to the previous section and the next section before I can move forward.) I sent the last 12 pages to Jean, Leanna, and Petrick, and they came to me with a "please admit that you do not have time this year to finish this" plea and "please let Jay do it right and not force him to do it wrong" plea and, well, ADB has standards (we TRY anyway) and we just did not have time for this project to get there. Maybe if Mongoose had not taken so much of my time this might still have happened (at the expense of Marines) but right now I don't know if either will happen.

This project has been dragging, and that's just the nature of the beast. Things get put on the schedule based on how much work we think they'll take (vs how good we think sales will be) and when something turns into a lot more work, it not only takes longer, it drops in priority like a rock and gets fewer hours.
Anyway, Jay nudged me a couple of weeks ago and I promised to give the project some SVC time. Six hours of SVC time turned into the four pages I'm going to show you in a second.
If Jay wasn't such a brilliant designer I would not do this much work, but his creativity is worth the effort. Unfortunately, my time is limited in general and my time for projects that cannot be finished quickly very much more so. I think you can tell how much editing, rewriting, and improving the original text did from the color-coded changes (red is stuff replaced, blue is stuff added.) You all know that I don't rewrite stuff just to rewrite it, but only when the original text is unusuable, wrong, imponderable, incomplete, or confusing.

Is this just supposed to be an adaptation of the VBAM rules for SFB?
Because I *loved* the VBAM combat system (which was very similar to F&E), and the campaign worked very well and had lots of great options. They were a great series of books I know many including myself are waiting for the 2E of.
Lots of people ask for an F&E Lite style game. I wouldn't think VBAM would need too much work to convert it, in fact, I tinkered with it a few years back to make it work with the SFU and had great success.
Feel free to delegate this to somebody else so it could see the light of day

1-year-old girl hospitalized after near-drowning in Lauderhill
Updated On: May 04 2014 05:57:00 PM EDT
The grandmother of a 1-year-old girl who was found floating in a pool at a home on NW 35th Court in Lauderhill rushed to be by her side Sunday afternoon.
"She's doing okay. She's breathing on her own. They just said that she's crying so I'm on my way to the hospital now," said the child's grandmother, who did not give Local 10 her name.
Lauderhill police said the child's mother was home at the time the child fell into the pool.
"Our preliminary investigation is indicating that the child may have been left unattended for a very short period of time when the mother went to another part of the house to use the restroom," said Lt. Greg Solowsky.
Solowsky said it was less than five minutes later when the mother walked outside and discovered her child in the pool.
"She quickly took the child from the pool, began CPR instantly, then she called 911," said Solowsky.
"She was crying. She was a mess. She was hanging on to one of the police officers because she was ready to sink down. She was really, really sad," said neighbor Kayla Badallo.
The good news, police said, is the child was breathing.
"When the child left this location the child was breathing very shallow, but still was breathing and showing positive signs of life," said Solowsky.

SMTP Port 587 Settings For Outgoing Email
In an effort to increase email security, Netrepid/PA Online will be making a change to the way that all of our customers send email.
Currently, it is possible to send out an email without authenticating to the mail server. With this configuration, it is possible for a spammer to log into the mail server and send out mass emailings which can slow down the sever and cause delays in the delivery of mail.
Starting on November 4th, 2012, we will be setting the server so that all customers will need to authenticate whenever sending an email message. The change that you will need to make to your mail program should only take about 5 minutes, and will only need to be done once. After the change, the process will be automatic.
If you currently use our webmail service to send and receive email, you do not need to make any changes. If you use a smartphone such as an iPhone or Android, you will not need to make any changes. If your internet connction is through another company such as Comcast or Verizon, you are already configured properly and will not need to make these changes. If you have any issues making these changes, please contact technical support and we will be happy to walk you through. We do strongly advise making these changes before November 4th, 2012.
Outlook Express / Windows Mail SMTP Port 587 Setup
- In the mail program click the Tools menu at the top of the window and then click Accounts.
- When the Internet Accounts window opens click on the Mail tab at the top of the window. You should see your email account listed in the box below. Click on its name to highlight it and then click the .Properties. button on the right side of the window
- When the email Properties windows opens, click on the servers tab at the top. At the bottom of that window put the check in the box that says My server requires authentication. Then click the settings button to the right.

Country club's male server gets wrong kind of gratuity
By Abigail Van Buren November 21, 2012 7:32AM
Updated: December 22, 2012 6:03AM
Dear Abby: My 24-year-old daughter and 21-year-old son work as banquet servers at a local country club. Many of the receptions at which they serve include guests consuming large amounts of alcohol.
If an intoxicated male guest made suggestive comments to my daughter or touched her, he would be asked to leave the facility. But what is my son supposed to do when an intoxicated woman, usually much older than he, pinches his backside and makes inappropriate comments or "invitations"?
My son isn't a prude. His sense of humor allows him to "laugh it off," but it happens often and he is becoming annoyed. What should he do to promote self-respect but not cause an uncomfortable atmosphere for himself and the guests?
Curious Mom in New Jersey
Dear Mom: The employee protection rules are no different for males than they are for females. Your son should document the incidents with dates, times and the women involved. He should then report their behavior to the banquet supervisor at the country club. I'm sure the person in charge will want to know, because if the sexual harassment isn't stopped, it could result in a very embarrassing — and possibly costly — lawsuit against the club.
Dear Abby: I recently began dating a widowed co-worker. We are both private people and we have kept our personal lives out of the workplace. Only our close friends at work know we are dating.
The issue we now face is the office gossip queen has spotted us out and about, and is asking all our friends about whether or not we're dating. How do I politely respond when people start asking me about my boyfriend?
I'm concerned that if I tell them we're seeing each other, I'll be treated differently because he had been widowed only a short time.
Drama-Free Mouse
Dear Mouse: Face it, your secret is out. If you prefer not to discuss your private life, all you have to do is say so to those who question you out of curiosity.
But why are you afraid that you'll be treated differently? Whether your co-worker's wife died two weeks or two months ago, he is available. Widowers have told me that women have approached them within days of their wives' funerals. You're acting like you feel guilty for being happy. For both of your sakes, please stop feeling like you're doing something wrong.
Dear Readers: I am pleased to offer the traditional Thanksgiving Prayer that was penned by my dear mother, Pauline Phillips.
Oh, Heavenly Father,
We thank Thee for food and remember the hungry.
We thank Thee for health and remember the sick.
We thank Thee for freedom and remember the enslaved.
May these remembrances stir us to service,
That Thy gifts to us may be used for others. Amen.
