A word from La Mar Cebicheria Peruana
Inspired on the thousands of cebicherias found throughout Peru, La Mar Cebicheria Peruana, was created as an attempt to globalize and enshrine one of the best guarded treasures of Peruvian cuisine: cebiche, Peruvian seafood and the scenery created to enjoy them, the Peruvian style cebicheria.

Diner Reviews
Although La Mar is a bit pricey,
the food is innovative and interesting. The bar is small so get there early (happy hour starts at 3:30!). The pisco sour is the signature Peruvian (and Chilean) adult beverage and is very good; they also make a good caiparinha. Probably the most interesting aspect of this Peruvian restaurant is less the focus on Andean cuisine but on the influences that Chinese and Japanese immigrants have had on the food. Every time I have come here, the waitstaff has been friendly and professional but I found the person at the check-in area a little "too cool for school"; she wouldn't acknowledge us when we were waiting. Perhaps since we were older than the usual hipster crowd, she couldn't be bothered with us."

We had been to 4 of their sister
restaurants in Peru. You are a wonderful find considering that you are much closer. Wish you were in L.A."
Dined on 3/2/2014
Took my mother for some nice
Peruvian food and we hit it went here because a friend recommended. Service was okay not outstanding but our busser was very nice and more attentive. Amazing desserts and and crevices tootoo. We saw the manager walk in around the restaurant so that says a lot to me. Definitely coming back for more anticuchos wine list needs work!"
Dined on 3/2/2014
Fresh seafood with well blended
flavors. Extensive menu with several great options made it hard for us to make a selection and therefore we settled on several of the sample dishes which were outstanding! passion fruit Pisco Sour was really refreshing. Make sure to leave room for dessert!"
Dined on 3/1/2014
Perfect, in a word. Our guests
were from Peru and were full of praise. We shared several dishes. Service was a tad slow."
Dined on 3/1/2014
Food was good. Service was not.
Pretty sure I can find somewhere else with better service to spend $350 on lunch. Drinks ordered before meal, arrived at end of meal. Waiter nowhere to be found..very slow. Noted birthday celebration on reservation and confirmed at check in was ignored by waiter. When asked about it, he had an attitude and never did anything. My husband had to actually go up to the front to pay bill...waiter still missing in action. Manager made aware and did nothing. Have had dinner here 3 times in the past..thought lunch here for my sister to celebrate her birthday would be perfect...beyond disappointed. I will never recommend this place ever again."
Dined on 3/1/2014
Normally I like my coffee to
arrive with my dessert (not ten minutes after I finish eating). Drinks were slow. Food was good and the building is historic and right on the water."
Dined on 2/26/2014
Came here on a recommendation. Our
service was a bit spotty, the fellow was polite and helpful, but they forgot to bring chips (akin to bread in other restaurants) and neglected to bring the rice for our meals. They did offer desserts in lieu. Otherwise, the food was pretty good. We had the empanada sampler and the pulpo antichucho, both were quite good. My guest and I both really enjoyed our entrees, the snapper (pescado entero) and the salmon. The wine list could perhaps use a bit more description. Problems aside, the food alone was enough to bring me back."
Dined on 2/24/2014
I've been to this restaurant
several times and think the food is great. This time I was very disappointed with the service since I had to wait for my table 45 minutes past the reservation time."
Dined on 2/22/2014
I took my girlfriend here for
Valentine's Day dinner. Overall we had a good time, the food was just awesome both visually and taste wise. The atmosphere wasn't super romantic since their were a few tables that had families however I did like the open feeling right next to the water which made for a good laid/romantic Valentine's Day feeling. I would definitely recommend this place just not on V-Day. Also the value was awesome I was expecting the bill to be 40% higher then it actually was."
Dined on 2/14/2014
The ambiance on a Saturday night
was more like a cafeteria than fine dining. The music was pathetically monotonous and more suitable for a dance club. The lighting was uniformly mid-range without any highlights or focal points and so was the food. Better empanadas and ceviche can be had at numerous places throughout the Mission at a fraction of the price. Our entrée was a bunch of seafood drenched in a teriyaki type sauce broiled on an iron platter. It tasted more like the sauce and the platter than anything else. With wine, our dinner for two hit $178 including tip. My advice: stick to the Mission for a memorable south-of-border dining experience."
Dined on 2/22/2014
all fabulous. would pry just stick
with the classic cebiche tho some of the cebiche in the sampler was not wowing"
Dined on 2/21/2014
Wonderful place on the water!
Great food and service but noise level was eardrum-bursting."
Dined on 2/19/2014
We were there from out of town on
Valentine's day and they had a special menu that was probably smaller and more expensive, but everything we had including dessert was fantastic. Pisco sours were great too. And the setting and decor are stunning. I'd go back but be prepared to plop down some cash. Service was fine but not outstanding."
Dined on 2/14/2014
When we want good drinks and good
seafood, this is where we come. The cebiche is delicious."
Dined on 2/16/2014
Fabulous, flavorful food. Loved
every minute of our evening there."
Dined on 2/15/2014
Food was good, not great. Wine
list was limited. The service was not great at all and felt rushed or not paid attention to. Waiter was not helpful with the menu, spilled water on the table and did not offer to clean it up even as we pointed it out to him. Would maybe go back.....not particularly impressed."
Dined on 2/15/2014
Food was beautifully prepared and
had all the flavors one could wish for and more. We were well attended to by the servers and for our lunch group, the noise level was comfortable and made for easy discussions. My only comment is that the portions were about 2 mouthfuls short of satisfying...meaning they were a little small. I am not a big eater, but I ordered the Scallops on Quinoa and was surprised to get only 3 scallops..one or two more would have filled me, and the quinoa serving was minimal. My guests had the salmon with poached egg, and although they loved the flavors, their portions were just under filling. Other than that, the food is great!"
Dined on 2/15/2014
I loved the atmosphere and the
food was so flavorful and fresh!!!!! We all loved it."
Dined on 1/23/2014
Went for valentines day dinner
with my girlfriend who absolutely loves seafood which this restaurant did very well. All dishes were freshly prepared and the seafood seemed to be extremely fresh. The only issues I had with the dinner was the wine selection which seem non existent nor were there specialty cocktails any better. Also be ready as this is a very pricey place as well."
Dined on 2/14/2014
Food was good, but very salty.
Maybe I just don't know what to expect from Peruvian Seafood. The service was perfect - personable and fast. The view over the water was perfect."
Dined on 2/14/2014
I had requested a table on the
patio if the weather was nice. They gave us the best table in the sun. The patio had been enclosed since our last visit and we had a table right on the edge of the enclosure with a view of the bay and the ferry boats and in the full sun from 12:15 to 2:30. It was a lovely afternoon in SF. Our service was a little slow and for some reason a glass of wine that one of us ordered never made it to the table. We asked about it and the server apologized and it still never made it. When the person was finished with his lunch the server said it would be just a few minutes....of course then he did not want the wine and said never mind."
Dined on 2/14/2014
I'm not a seafood person at all,
but chose this place because my boyfriend loves it and we were celebrating his birthday. We ordered the cebiche sampler, which had halibut, shrimp, and tuna and the beef empanadas. Each cebiche dish was amazing and didn't have that "fishy" taste that seafood usually has (I've had shrimp from 3 different places and halibut before and each experience was horrible). I asked the waiter if they could put a candle in the pie de limon we ordered for dessert and not only did he accept but he brought out a separate birthday treat for my boyfriend! It was perfect! Service was exquisite as was the food. Definitely worth the price!"
Dined on 2/11/2014
This was my second visit after
several years. The wait staff made themselves available, but they seemed undertrained in terms of polish and demeanor. The chips, plantains, dipping sauces and ceviche were the best; the causas were different and nicely presented; the empanadas were not well formed, but the filling was OK. The scallops and quinoa were also just OK; however, as we told the waiter the 4 of us were sharing everything, he did not think the situation through and presented the entree with only 3 scallops. We had to ask for another."
Dined on 2/11/2014
First time here and it was really
great. The food and presentations were so unique. We had a seat on the back patio overlooking the bay and it was lovely. Went for lunch but definitely want to go back for dinner. Would highly recommend if you are looking for something totally different."
Dined on 2/10/2014
Excellent, special service.
Unusual but not indistinguishable food. Pricey."
Dined on 2/10/2014
Great place for brunch. Dishes are
tasty and well presented albeit not abundant. I'd say it's more Peruvian inspired for than truly authentic but delicious regardless and a great introduction to Peruvian cuisine. A tad pricey and not for intimate dining experiences."
Dined on 2/9/2014
I had heard so much about La Mar
especially when I heard that Chef Kou was spearheading the kitchen and so I finally came around to trying it for the first time recently for a bday dinner. Everything that we ordered was solid, distinct, and flavorful! We had such a gracious server, Nick, who was so sweet and had a great attitude. I can't wait to go again, especially with front bay views! I look forward to trying La Mar for brunch when weather permits although the expansive patio is already heated and protected for year-round seating. I will be back that's for sure!"
Dined on 2/6/2014
Pricey, but everything is good. I
particularly enjoyed the "Corazon" dish, fairly rare beef heart on a skewer served with a mustardy sauce on some sliced potatoes. Most excellent. All the ceviches were excellent as well. Awesome sweet potato chips."
Dined on 2/2/2014
Went here for lunch on a beautiful
Saturday afternoon. If it is a nice day, be sure to request the Patio area for a nice view of the Bay. Be warned however, that the staff may not be very accommodating. Host was horrible. Server was great in the beginning, but declined as he got busier with other tables. Great fresh quality seafood, and ingredients. Enjoyed our meal immensely. The view helped as well. We only had the ceviche and seafood items, so not sure if the rest of the menu was good or authentic. Would definitely go back, and recommend to others. Just don't get turned off if the welcome is poor, or if you get major attitude when it comes to reservations or seating."
Dined on 2/1/2014
A chef friend of ours in the PNW
recommended La Mar because we mentioned that we love Peruvian food. This restaurant has an extensive menu and our waiter (being half Peruvian) was able to zero in on exactly the right number of dishes to order and each bite was perfect. The wine list is huge and so is the list of Peruvian cocktails. We found that we needed to return the next day for brunch so we could taste a couple more things... We'll be back."
Dined on 2/1/2014
We went during the SF Dine About
Town week, so we expected them to be busy, but after 30 minutes our server still hadn't even come to our table to take drink orders. We finally flagged down a manager to take our orders. The food was great and is definitely meant for sharing, so bring a group."
Dined on 1/25/2014
As soon as you enter La Mar you
feel right at home. Our waiter Jimmy was awesome and his recommendations on the food & the wine were a great way to introduce us to Peruvian food. The cebiches are a MUST!! We are going back soon."
Dined on 1/15/2014
Great place for lunch after the
Saturday farmers market. All the dishes we had were very good."
Dined on 9/28/2013
Came here with a group of 8, they
messed up our reservation - upon arriving, apparently some other party had checked us in for a diff party size. We ended up waiting another 20 minutes for our table. Due to the delayed dinner, we were all starving - the service was sub-par compared to the other times I had dined at La Mar (maybe because we were a large group). Food was delicious. The receipt showed a mandatory 18% tips for all groups 6+, but it was also later itemized as a Service Charge. We had to check on whether we were being double charged due to the different categorized names."
Dined on 2/1/2014
Overall good food. It is a dining
experience. Portions on the small size but good presentation of the dishes. Service is good."
Dined on 2/1/2014
Great dinner 5 of us from
Minneapolis food very good. We loved the atmosphere."
Dined on 2/1/2014
Food is good, very small portions
even for someone being carefull about what they eat."
Dined on 1/30/2014
I went with a friend and
discovered that they had a Dine about Town menu. Prix Fixe 4 course for $37. It gave me a sampling of all their popular dishes and was the perfect portions. Everything was delicious and the waitstaff was very attentive. Great location by the water."
Dined on 1/29/2014
Unique and delicious! Service was
amazing! I have never had Peruvian food before, and its my new love. I will definitely be back to La Mar!!!"

Corsicana —
There has been discussion about the City Council's recently adopted grease trap ordinance. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality requires cities to implement regulations to control the discharge of fats, oils and grease into the sanitary sewer system. For many years there have been regulations prohibiting the discharge of grease and there is substantial evidence of grease in the sewer system. Also, businesses that have the potential to discharge grease have always been required to have a grease trap. The purpose of the recently adopted ordinance was to clarify what is required of establishments that may discharge fats, oils and grease. It summarizes what businesses that have the potential to discharge must do to comply with the City code and state law.
If a business or institution is required to have a Health Department food service permit in order to operate, it may be impacted by this ordinance. The goal is to reduce the amount of grease in the City sewer system; therefore, if a business is determined to be a potential discharge source and does not currently have a grease trap, the owner can request a 12 month assessment period. During this timeframe, the City will collect samples for analysis to determine if a grease trap is necessary. The owner may be asked to install a sample port if one is not present. At the same time the facility will be assessed to determine if installation of a grease trap is feasible. If installation is not feasible an alternative capture device may be proposed by the business. A solution may be as simple as an under the counter unit. Existing restaurants and businesses that are grease producers and have a grease trap in operation, will be allowed to demonstrate compliance without making modifications if possible. There have been no restaurants in town that have closed because of the grease trap ordinance.
The ordinance does not contain a 'one size fits all' solution nor is there one for every business. The Planning and Zoning Department and the Health Inspector will handle the evaluation of all businesses on a case by case basis to determine the need and what type of device will be required. The City will continue to work with each different situation to develop a plan for all businesses.

Some stories I've heard
Sometimes, stories come to me second- or third-hand, but they stick with me and I just need to share them.

Hello Helena (that'd be in Montana ;)…
August 22, 2012 by Dana Ticknor · 1 Comment
The Last Chance Tour Train takes you on an hour long tour through the historic residential district and tells a little about many of the homes in the area – homes that were built with gold money, or from the business wealth that the gold brought in. The tour takes you past the old governors mansion and tells a little about the free tours you can take of the mansion (take one – they are interesting – especially the hidden passage), and the tour drives you down our quaint little Walking Mall. The Walking Mall is 2 blocks of Last Chance Gulch that are closed to vehicle travel – but the tour train gets to drive down it, and you get a peek at the businesses along the mall. Make sure to note The Parrot (wonderful onsite-handmade chocolates) and it's nearby The Big Dipper (super yummy ice cream shop featuring huckleberry ice cream and root beer sherbet among other flavors, and unique sundaes) for future reference as must-stops. The LCTT is a great way to get a feel for the southern part of town, and to learn some fun and interesting facts about the area. It starts in front of our Historical Society museum, and takes you past our nearby state capital.

I am mulling over the idea of writing a program to check for "leaky abstractions" in Java. The one area that popped into mind right away is with exceptions:
public class X
// this one is fine, Readers throw IOExceptions so it is
// reasonable for the caller to handle it
public void parse(final Reader r)
throws IOException
// This one is bad. Nothing in the API indicate that JDBC
// is being used at all.
public void process()
throws SQLException
Note, I do not want an argument on relative merits of checked/unchecked exceptions. What I am looking for is other examples (doesn't have to be exception handling) that people have that could also be reasonably caught via examining the source code or class files.
I am aware of checkstyle, findbugs, and PMD, and AFAIK none of them deal with this (and I am not opposed to putting the checks into one of those tools rather than write my own).
Are there any other examples of leaky abstractions that you come to mind that could be statically check for?
The reason why the second one is bad is that the method throws an exception where the client has no way of knowing that JDBC (for example, it could be anything) is being used. So the "leaky abstraction" is that JDBC is being used. If the underlying mechanism changed to soemthing else (say JPA which is a different database abstraction library) then the exceptions would all need to change as well. So the underlying database library is being leaked out.

Structural basis for chitin recognition by defense proteins: GlcNAc residues are bound in a multivalent fashion by extended binding sites in hevein domains
Chemistry & Biology, Volume 7, Issue 7, 1 July 2000, Pages 529-543
Juan L Asensio, Francisco J Cañada, Hans-Christian Siebert, José Laynez, Ana Poveda, Pedro M Nieto, UM Soedjanaamadja, Hans-Joachim Gabius and Jesús Jiménez-Barbero
SummaryBackground: Many plants respond to pathogenic attack by producing defense proteins that are capable of reversible binding to chitin, a polysaccharide present in the cell wall of fungi and the exoskeleton of insects. Most of these chitin-binding proteins include a common structural motif of 30 to 43 residues organized around a conserved four-disulfide core, known as the 'hevein domain' or 'chitin-binding' motif. Although a number of structural and thermodynamic studies on hevein-type domains have been reported, these studies do not clarify how chitin recognition is achieved.Results: The specific interaction of hevein with several (GlcNAc)n oligomers has been studied using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), analytical ultracentrifugation and isothermal titration microcalorimetry (ITC). The data demonstrate that hevein binds (GlcNAc)2–4 in 1:1 stoichiometry with millimolar affinity. In contrast, for (GlcNAc)5, a significant increase in binding affinity is observed. Analytical ultracentrifugation studies on the hevein–(GlcNAc)5,8 interaction allowed detection of protein–carbohydrate complexes with a ratio of 2:1 in solution. NMR structural studies on the hevein–(GlcNAc)5 complex showed the existence of an extended binding site with at least five GlcNAc units directly involved in protein–sugar contacts.Conclusions: The first detailed structural model for the hevein–chitin complex is presented on the basis of the analysis of NMR data. The resulting model, in combination with ITC and analytical ultracentrifugation data, conclusively shows that recognition of chitin by hevein domains is a dynamic process, which is not exclusively restricted to the binding of the nonreducing end of the polymer as previously thought. This allows chitin to bind with high affinity to a variable number of protein molecules, depending on the polysaccharide chain length. The biological process is multivalent.

Heparan sulfate: decoding a dynamic multifunctional cell regulator
Trends in Cell Biology, Volume 11, Issue 2, 1 February 2001, Pages 75-82
Jeremy Turnbull, Andrew Powell and Scott Guimond
AbstractThe heparan sulfates are a family of cell-surface and matrix polysaccharides with an incredible degree of structural diversity that are distributed widely in virtually all metazoan organisms. Recent genetic, biochemical and cell-biological studies have led to increased understanding of the biosynthetic mechanisms that produce these complex molecules, as well as their functional versatility in regulating protein activities. The dynamic expression of heparan sulfates with differing sugar sequences suggests a new concept in which the repertoire of sequences produced by a particular cell or tissue is designated its 'heparanome'. This review discusses recent developments and surveys emerging experimental strategies that hold promise for revealing the functional specificity and mechanisms of action of heparan sulfates as multifunctional cell regulators.

Chemical Approaches to Define the Structure-Activity Relationship of Heparin-like Glycosaminoglycans
Chemistry & Biology, Volume 12, Issue 7, 1 July 2005, Pages 731-756
Christian Noti and Peter H. Seeberger
SummaryHeparin, the drug of choice for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disorders, has been shown to interact with many proteins. Despite its widespread medical use, little is known about the precise sequences that interact with specific proteins. The minimum heparin binding sequence for FGF1 and FGF2 necessary to promote signaling was investigated. A characteristic pentasaccharide sequence, DEFGH, is required to accelerate the inhibition of thrombin and factor Xa in the blood-coagulation cascade. The first synthetic heparin pentasaccharide drug has been approved in Europe and the US and is sold under the trade name Arixtra. Other oligosaccharides with different composition are under clinical investigation. The enormous interest in the assembly of heparin oligosaccharides will stimulate the development of new synthetic approaches. Heparin-oligosaccharide-synthesis automation similar to that of DNA or peptide synthesis will play an important role.

Crystal structure of Urtica dioica agglutinin, a superantigen presented by MHC molecules of class I and class II

- Background:Urtica dioica agglutinin (UDA), a monomeric lectin extracted from stinging nettle rhizomes, is specific for saccharides containing N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc). The lectin behaves as a superantigen for murine T cells, inducing the exclusive proliferation of Vβ8.3+ lymphocytes. UDA is unique among known T cell superantigens because it can be presented by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules of both class I and II.Results: The crystal structure of UDA has been determined in the ligand-free state, and in complex with tri-acetylchitotriose and tetra-acetylchitotetraose at 1.66 Å, 1.90 Å and 1.40 Å resolution, respectively. UDA comprises two hevein-like domains, each with a saccharide-binding site. A serine and three aromatic residues at each site form the principal contacts with the ligand. The N-terminal domain binding site can centre on any residue of a chito-oligosaccharide, whereas that of the C-terminal domain is specific for residues at the nonreducing terminus of the ligand. We have shown previously that oligomers of GlcNAc inhibit the superantigenic activity of UDA and that the lectin binds to glycans on the MHC molecule. We show that UDA also binds to glycans on the T cell receptor (TCR).Conclusions: The presence of two saccharide-binding sites observed in the structure of UDA suggests that its superantigenic properties arise from the simultaneous fixation of glycans on the TCR and MHC molecules of the T cell and antigen-presenting cell, respectively. The well defined spacing between the two binding sites of UDA is probably a key factor in determining the specificity for Vβ8.3+ lymphocytes.

text: What starts seemingly as children's dress-up soon turns to S/M, erotically charged incest, murder, and an indictment of class and servitude. In Martin Crimp's new translation, the inherently debauched text from celebrated criminal Jean Genet becomes performance poetry, as two young maids (Linnea Wilson and Jennifer Stuckert) perform ritual status games while plotting to kill their mistress (Sigrid Sutter). Wilson and Stuckert are young actors, and at times have difficulty handling the sophisticated language believably, but as the plot deepens, their innocence makes their angst, hatred, and rage all the more understandable. The tight confines of the Exit's Stage Left studio theater are well used in Eric Flatmo's set design, giving us the uncomfortable yet thrilling voyeuristic feeling of witnessing something private and dangerous. Genet, a habitual liar and the illegitimate son of a Parisian prostitute, is said to have lived his life as an "intentional pilgrimage to reach the lowest state of evil," but with The Maids, likely based on a high-profile murder case in 1930s France, he thoughtfully and lyrically illuminates class resentment and subjugation. Director Adriana Baer packages the tale adeptly in this sexy and provoking production.

B.B. King – Stand By Me lyrics
When the night has come,
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only
Light we'll see
No I won't be afraid,
No I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand,
Stand by me
So darlin', darlin',
Stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand,
Stand by me,
Stand by me
If the sky we look upon,
Should trumble and fall
Or the mountain should crumble
To the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No I won't she'd a tear
Just as long as you stand,
Stand by me.
Refrain (2x)

The Russian Defense Ministry denied on Monday media reports that it had bought thousands of badminton rackets and tens of thousands of shuttlecocks for military units.
The Russian daily newspaper Izvestia reported earlier on Monday that the Defense Ministry planned to provide Russian army, including snipers, with badminton equipment in 2012 since "watching a birdie trains the eye muscles, strengthens the cardiovascular system and develops reaction speeds."
"The Defense Ministry was surprised by the Izvestia report," the ministry said in a statement.
"Badminton is not an applied sports in the Armed Forces," the statement read.
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev recently attracted international and domestic media attention with a clip on his official blog where he spoke about his love for badminton, which he said "develops your physical form, eye coordination, accuracy and reactions." The clip was designed to foster interest in the sport among Russian schoolchildren. The video shows Medvedev playing badminton with Prime Minister Vladimir Putin.

The McCollough effect reveals orientation discrimination in a case of cortical blindness

Corresponding author.
Background: The McCollough effect is a colour aftereffect that is contingent on the orientation of the patterns used to induce it. To produce the effect, two differently oriented grating patterns — such as a red-and-black vertical grating and a green-and-black horizontal grating — are viewed alternately for a few minutes. After this period of adaptation, if the black-and-white test gratings are viewed in the same orientation as the adaptation patterns, the white sections of the vertical grating will appear pale green and the white sections of the horizontal grating will appear pink. The McCollough effect indicates that colour- and orientation-coding mechanisms interact at some point during visual processing; but the question remains as to whether this interaction occurs at an early or later stage in the cortical visual pathways. In an attempt to answer this question, we studied a patient who had suffered extensive damage to extrastriate visual areas of the brain, which had left him able to see colour but little else.
Results Neuropsychological and perceptual tests demonstrated that the patient, P.B., has a profound impairment in form perception and is even unable to discriminate between 90° differences in the orientation of grating stimuli. He is also unable to use orientation information to control his reaching or grasping. Nevertheless, P.B. can name and discriminate different colours reliably, including those used to induce the McCollough effect. After adaptation with red-and-green gratings, P.B. appropriately reported the orientation-contingent aftereffect colours, even though he continued to be unable to discriminate the orientations of the test patterns.
Conclusion These results indicate that at some level in P.B.'s visual system orientation is being coded, but it is at a level that he is unable to use in making orientation judgements or in visuomotor control. Given the massive insult to the extrastriate cortex in P.B., it is likely that the anatomical locus of the mechanisms underlying the McCollough effect is within primary visual cortex or even earlier in the visual pathway.

I'm taking my 2.5 year old son to the game this weekend for his first Cyclone Football game. Any words of wisdom for those who have taken small kids to the football games?
Sit on the hill. That will keep him occuppied.
My 20 month old loved it. Get there in time for pre-game as it wont be as difficult to get to your seat, and he can see the band and hear the music. Also, bring a blanket for them to sit on the concrete floor between your legs if you get tired of holding him up to see, or he gets tired of standing and watching.
Definitely bring a blanket...& treats!
First of all I was mislead by the title of this thread as I thought it was about Hawk fans :wink:-just kidding, gotta have fun.
Secondly, I would plan on having an out for your son meaning you need to plan on an early departure, or have your spouse/signifigant other ready to take him out if things go bad for him. We have taken my older boy to several games and have some awesome pics, that would be last piece of advice: camera!
Yeah his favorite parts will be the band, the hill to role down, Cy the Mascot and many other things. None of wich include the game of football. So don't be mad because he could care less about the game.
It will be a father-son outing...the wife has the other two. Oldest daughter was invited to a birthday party in the afternoon, otherwise it would be a parent's day out.
He's been to basketball games and an I-Cubs game...so hopefully he does as good as he did at those.
Take him down to the NE hill at the end of halftime and stand by the fence to watch the players come out.
If it's not to cold they sell Ice Cream on the East side!!
I had a toddler next to me during the Iowa game. My advice, get them their own seat. If that doesn't work, watch their feet. I got kicked more times than I could count because the father wasn't paying attention to where the kid's feet were flying. Works great when you have a broken jaw!
Call me overprotective, but I never let my little dude roll down the hills, unless it was in a totally empty space away from other kids. It always looks like someone is going to break something doing that. Also, dress him warm and bring blankets. As soon as the atmosphere and fun wear off, being cold will end your day early.
Two-minute warning is in effect.
Head for the restrooms with two minutes left in the half and hope you don't miss anything. Since they're at a Football game they might get a drink in a "big cup".
We took our 4 year old daughter to 2 games last year and one game this year. We had a sticker activity book last year that worked well. We brought crayons and a coloring book this year. We actually ate at the game which worked well because it gave her something to do. It is amazing how long a hot dog can take at a game. The other thing I would suggest is to be prepared to leave early. Last year in her first game, she made it to the start of the 3rd quarter. The second game we only made it to half. This year we made it to the 4th quarter. We probably would have stayed the whole game but it was a night game.
Funny story about her first game. She saw Stevie playing with his long hair hanging out of his helmet. She said something to the effect that they let girls play football to. We explained that Stevie is a boy with long hair. Now, whenever we are watching football and she sees somone with long hair she asks if it is Stevie.
When I started going to games around age 4 I remember that my dad just took me up to the top of Section G and I stood up by the wall. Great memories from watching the band, etc.

Local 123 coffee maker
I love how Local 123 in Berkeley brews each cup individually in that ceramic thing that makes 4 cups at a time. Our coffee maker just broke and I am so sick what terrible coffee comes out of all the plastic makers I have had, I would like a change. Are those sold retail? Will it be a pain to make my coffee every morning? Any other recommendations?
And by the way Local 123 brews some amazing coffee and one of the best cappuccinos I have ever had, I'll try to post a proper review at some point
Local 123
2049 San Pablo Avenue, Berkeley, CA 94702
I've only get over to Local 123 about once every few weeks, and have been mesmerized by the coffee.
However the last 2 visits were disappointing. Coffee didn't have that rich flavor.
I'm wondering if it was just bad luck and 2 off days, or if anyone else has noticed the same?-
re: escargot3
Did you order the same thing you always order? For the drips, there are definitely some of their beans I like better than others.
Otherwise, I do notice that there's a lot of variation with the espresso drinks--even the cappuccino, which I love, is a bit different each time, depending on what the single origin is (if I go that route), which particular barista is making it, even the time of day.
I've never had a bad (or even mediocre) drink from them, but it definitely isn't the exact same drink every time. I'm OK with that, though.
Sorry I am the worst at replying... I did end up with the Chemex from Cafe Trieste although it turned out my local Petes carried it, oh well I was in that area anyways. I can say the Chemex has truly changed my life, I could never go back to a regular plastic maker now. It is amazing to wake up and have an amazing cup of coffee that you don't have to drown in creamer to make it taste decent. The one down side is that I'm the only one that makes it, husband warned me when I bought it that it would be my thing, but it is so worth it. Thanks chowhounds!
Sounds like you changed your focus, but here's a porcelain Hario Ceramic Dripper with the all important swirling ridges, ribbed for your coffee grinds pleasure. I'm sure there are local retailers for Hario, but here's a mail order option.
If you want to really improve the taste of your coffee and save time, buy a variable temperature electric kettle and use water that is 180-190 versus 212.
Boils water in much less time than on the stovetop and stays warm for a while. Higher end tea shops carry them, although less expensive vacuum pots sold at Asian groceries often have a lower temperature setting.
Mine's a tfal. I use an Aeropress on the rare occasions I make coffee. http://www.amazon.com/T-Fal-BF6520004...
For daily coffee you can not go wrong with the Keurig single cup brewer. It won't replace your french press but it is darn good and no mess, or clean up and ready in about 30 seconds. Each cup is brewed fresh. You can get Tullys or Green Mountain and all roast styles. Peets just announced they will also be making pods for the Keurig brewer. I lOVE it.
re: The Frog
If you like good coffee, there is plenty to go wrong with the Keurig Coffee brewer.The pods are expensive, but most of all the pre-ground coffee in the pods is stale when you buy it. I will give you, it is easy and fast.
The recommendation for the Chemex or the pour-over is right on the money. It is a little more labor intensive, but if you like good coffee it should be worth the effort. Save some money for a grinder though. Freshly ground beans have more to do with the quality in the cup than any brewing device.
re: chipman
Check the date on the kcup. If you buy from Keurig or Green Mountain online it is great. According to website the kcups on nitrogen flushed just after roasting so they really are fresher than whole bean. I know some of discount web sites sell old coffee so you need to buy from the company
re: The Frog
You miss understand. The ground beans inside the pod are stale.They go stale within minutes of being ground. We are getting away from the original point. The OP wants good coffee. Pods, cups, capsules, are all by design, stale. Convenient, clean, easy, but stale non the less.They do not make good coffee.
although I usually make espresso and caps, I like using a French press when it comes to making regular coffee, though I know it's a bit of a pain compared to some other methods. For me, it's worth the extra effort, but I understand that might not be true for everyone.
I've become somewhat dogmatic about brewing drip coffee with no components that are metal or plastic, and using high quality paper filters (Chemex).
Either a ceramic cone that sits on top of your mug, or the hourglass-shaped pyrex pitcher (typically Chemex) will get the job done with coffee that's as clean as is possible, with a low up front cost.
That said, you will have to go through the extra steps of boiling the water and pouring it over the coffee; some will find that too much work, but I don't mind the routine.
I'd rather have a self-contained chemex than a sit-on-mug cone, because it's easier to avoid spills in a typical under-caffeinated morning.
In San Francisco, you can buy Chemex coffee makers at Haig's Delicatessen on Clement St., Cliff's Variety on Castro, or Rainbow Grocery on Division. In the east bay, Sweet Maria's carries them, and surely other locations, but I'm rarely over there.

re: SteveG
What does "as clean as possible" mean with regard to coffee? Does that translate into buying beans at a particular place?
I find that my vacuum-carafe electric filtercone coffeemaker makes better-tasting coffee than when I pour by hand. Coffee from flat-bottomed filter coffeemakers like Mr. Coffee tastes awful, and cone filter coffeemakers with heating pads quickly ruin the coffee.
re: Robert Lauriston
Clean from rancid coffee oil, which is hard to clean out of parts with corners, permanent filters, etc. With smooth ceramic or glass, a quick scrub removes all residue. I haven't tried a Technivorm, but I'm so happy with my $30 chemex that I'm not in a hurry to try one, either.
re: SteveG
Thanks for all the replies, the Chemex seems even better then what I was thinking of. Could you tell me a little bit more about your experience with it? Which size do you have? I read that it cools off very quickly, so if you want two cups if coffee, do you brew two separate cups? Thanks!
re: elliora
I still have the Chemex that I bought at Peet's in 1972. Once I found out about Chemex and Peet's Kenyan coffee, I was spoiled.
Everything you've read in this thread about Chemex coffee making is correct: you do need to boil water, and pour it slowly over the grounds in the filter; and "clean" is the word that comes to mind when you first drink coffee from the Chemex. At least with the coffee blends I was using at the time, the coffee had a very pure, clean taste and mouth feel--which is not to say weak.
As to your question about temperature loss, I used to sit the pot in a shallow, hot water bath to hold the heat. Worked out fine.
re: elliora
Here are some thoroughly anal instructions for brewing with the Chemex:
I disagree with one thing there: I use paper filters and my burr grinder makes much better-tasting coffee than the blade chopper I used to use.
re: Robert Lauriston
I concur on burr grinders. Blade grinders give an inconsistent grind, which I prefer for french press, but for anything with a filter, the consistency of burr grinding is greatly superior.
Blade grinders are hugely cheap, but a good burr grinder (such as at Peet's) will set you back around $100 and last for years. Blade grinders are to be preferred only when cost is a serious issue - I've seen them as low as $15.
Myself, I'm a AeroPress partisan. The few, the proud.
re: Rapini
Unfortunately I'm going to have to wait on the good grinder, we just moved into a new house and I have a mile long sheet of things to buy, but the grinder is on there! Does anyone have the newer style Chemex with handle, is that better then the old model? Anywhere else that carries the Chemex besides Sweet Maria's? I just noticed that Sweet Maria's only has the 8cup chemex in the new style and I want the 10. I'm in Lafayette but will travel if need be.
re: elliora
The classic Chemex is blown glass with a two-piece wooden collar that is tied on with a leather thong; the alternative is/was an insulated cloth collar (something like a small hotpad)...a handle seems so un-Chemex.
I haven't checked, but I'm pretty sure that Peet's still sells the Chemex.
Sweet Maria's has some ceramic filtercones:
They also sell Technivorm brewers, which are the Lexus of drip coffee appliances:
I've experimented with just about every aspect of brewing and concluded that roasting (too much trouble) and grinding just before bewing and using a coffeemaker with a vacuum carafe make the biggest differences. I don't think plastic filter cones are an issue. Goldfilters are worse than paper.
Sweet Maria's Coffee
1115 21st Street, Oakland, CA -
Blue Bottle sells an array of things that make coffee--all non plastic. If I'm reading correctly you're talking about the cone-shaped manual drip that sits on top of a mug; I know they use those but you'll have to ask if they sell them.
Blue Bottle
151 Third St, San Francisco, CA -
I would check out Sweet Maria's. They sell just about everything coffee related.

"If you have placed an order through the website - you can pick up Monday through Friday 11 am to 5 pm. Walk up orders are welcome Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 11am to 5pm. Closed for walk ins Monday and Friday. We are not set up as a retail space so you can see merchandise a lot easier on the web pages than in the warehouse - believe me! So it is really best to order ahead of time since that guarantees the fastest turn-around time. We close for lunch daily from 1:30pm to 2 pm."

Constance Briscoe
Constance Briscoe | |
Born | 18 May 1957 |
Occupation | Barrister/ Recorder of the Crown Court |
Nationality | English |
Citizenship | United Kingdom |
Alma mater | University of Newcastle upon Tyne University of Warwick |
Notable work(s) | Ugly Beyond Ugly |
Constance Briscoe LL.B, M.A, LL.D. (born 18 May 1957) is a barrister and one of England's earliest black female Recorders; she is currently suspended from sitting in that office.
Legal career[edit]
Briscoe studied Law at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne, financing her studies by having several jobs at weekends and during the holidays, including working with the terminally ill in a hospice. She took an MA at the University of Warwick and holds a Honorary Degree of Doctor of Laws from the University of Wolverhampton.[1]
She was called to the Bar in 1983, and in 1996 became a Recorder, a part time judge - one of the first black women to sit as a judge in the UK. Briscoe's legal practice focuses on criminal law and fraud, principally defending. She also undertakes tribunal work, public inquiries, inquests and acts as President of Mental Health Tribunals.[2] A room is now named after her in the Newcastle University Students' Union building.
In 2007 she applied to be made a QC but was turned down.[3]
In October 2012 Briscoe was suspended from the judiciary after having been arrested and questioned by police.[4]
Personal life[edit]
Born to two immigrants from Jamaica who settled in the United Kingdom in the 1950s, she was one of eleven children.[2] Constance's mother Carmen had seven children, including Constance, by her husband George Briscoe. She then had another four children by Garfield Eastman.[3]
Briscoe is known for her books Ugly and Beyond Ugly in which she claims she was abused as a child, which her mother denied. She often talks publicly about her experiences. Her mother, Carmen Briscoe-Mitchell, sued her daughter and her publishers Hodder & Stoughton for libel.[5] The case was concluded in Briscoe's favour, when a jury in the High Court unanimously accepted Constance's argument that her allegations were substantially true.[6]
Briscoe lives in Clapham, with her two children from her earlier relationship, with lawyer Adam Wilson.[3] A long relationship with barrister Anthony Arlidge ended in 2010.[7]
She underwent facial and other cosmetic surgery because she perceived herself to be ugly.[3]
On 6 October 2012, Briscoe was arrested in Clapham and subsequently bailed pending further enquiries, as a result of a police investigation. No announcement was made at that time as to the nature of any allegations against her.[4][8]
The Lord Chief Justice and Lord Chancellor have suspended Briscoe from the judiciary pending the outcome of the police investigation.[4][8]
In February 2013, at the trial of Vicky Pryce police stated that Briscoe's arrest related to the release of information to the press on behalf of Vicky Pryce contrary to statements Briscoe had made, and the police could not rely upon Briscoe as a "witness of truth". Pryce was a friend and neighbour of Briscoe. Briscoe had not been charged but remained on police bail.[9][10][11]
On 12 June 2013 it was announced she would be charged with two counts of intending to pervert the course of justice and will attend court on 24 June 2013. The first count alleges she provided police with two inaccurate statements, and the second alleges that she produced a copy of her witness statement that had been altered.[12]

Message Category: Women's Running Topic: Long Runs and No Bathroom?
All you need is a kleenex and a bush. I carry kleenex with me in a plastic baggie - you can always find a place to go if it's an emergency. I have gone in all kinds of weeds, golf courses, even urban alleyways. Get a buddy to serve as "lookout". Once you get over stressing about it you will feel much better. What's the worse that could happen? Maybe an indecent exposure ticket... I have done this for both kinds of "potty". Good luck, try not to stress about it - if you gotta go you gotta go.

Photo of the Day (03.18.08)
In my travels, I've discovered something about small towns -- they each have something that is uniquely theirs, something they're know for, a claim to fame if you will. In the town of Vegreville, Alberta, for instance, it's the giant easter egg in the center of town that commemorates the Ukranian heritage. In the town of Hoi An, Vietnam, it's the abundance of tailor shops, each ready to make you a custom suit at a bargain rate. And in Borsang, Thailand, it's the handmade umbrellas that are their claim to fame. In fact, the town even holds an annual umbrella festival each year in January. Gadling reader Lady Expat was there, and luckily for us, she took this excellent photo.

Chapter 62 | |
1 | For Zion's sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp that burneth. |
2 | And the Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name. |
3 | Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God. |
4 | Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzibah, and thy land Beulah: for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married. |
5 | For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee. |
6 | I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence, |
7 | And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth. |
8 | The LORD hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Surely I will no more give thy corn to be meat for thine enemies; and the sons of the stranger shall not drink thy wine, for the which thou hast laboured: |
9 | But they that have gathered it shall eat it, and praise the LORD; and they that have brought it together shall drink it in the courts of my holiness. |
10 | Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the people. |
11 | Behold, the LORD hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him. |
12 | And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and thou shalt be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken. |
