Diner Reviews
Laurenzo's is a wonderful little
neighborhood gem that reminisces of the great fancy dining experiences of the past with its decor. The service is always good and you even see the owners making table visits sometimes. Laurenzo's has many regulars that are greeted by name... A true definition of a neighborhood gem. Best of all though is the prime rib. Hands down, it is the best prime rib in Houston!"

This was our first time to eat at
Laurenzo's and it was incredible. They have an extensive menu but we chose to stick with the prime rib and steaks that they are famous for and we where not disappointed. The atmosphere and service were outstanding."
Dined on 3/1/2014
Honestly, one the best places I've
been to. Our server was phenomenal and the food was just as good. Too rich for my budget to enjoy consistently but will be back next time I'm ready to splurge."

My Wife and I absolutely love
Laurenzo's. The service and the food is always excellent. Be sure to make a reservation on the weekends though..."

I would equate this restaurant to
an expensive night at Houston's."
Dined on 2/16/2014
The food and service were great.
We had the calamari appetizer to start, which was yummy. For dinner, I had the prime rib and my friend had the Durango topping fish. She liked my prime rib better, and I liked her fish better.. but both were good! We also tried the brownie for dessert, but that was nothing special. The service was great. When we first arrived the place was empty, but pretty crowded by the time we left. We went on a week night around 5:30 PM. The decor is kind of off for a "steak house", but still pretty neat."
Dined on 1/9/2014
Everything from the food to the
service to the waitress was beyond my expectations. Absolutely adore this restaurant. They even surprised my friend with a birthday dessert that 2 people could eat. I didn't have to ask. :)"
Dined on 2/16/2014
Staff is always friendly and
always on their game when it comes to great service. Food is excellent. Has the vibe of a sports bar with all of the sports memorabilia but not in an obnoxious way for those of us who aren't huge sports fans."
Dined on 2/16/2014
This was my second visit to the
restaraunt and I think it was better than the first. Our reservation was for 5:30 and we were late due to traffic but we were seated immediately upon our arrival. I think it took less than 10 for the appetizer and salad to arrive at and my husband and I were visibly surprised; he even joking about how "slow" they were that evening. Our waiter was very knowledgable about the food and came back to check on us often. The filet mignot was cooked perfectly and my husband really enjoyed his prime rib; we had nothing but good things to say about our meal. We will definely be back!"
Dined on 2/15/2014
Very attentive and willing to do
what it takes to make a great experience."
Dined on 2/14/2014
Considering the prices I expected
an upscale steak restaurant and got a glorified Chili's. Crowd and atmosphere was very odd. Loud groups of people. A door on the east end of the restaurant that slammed every 3o seconds from wait staff going through it - Drove me crazy. Food was way overpriced for the quality. Even the prime rib was just so-so. Mac & cheese not good at all. Shrimp and grits had odd flavor. Wine was good. They gave my husband a brownie and ice cream for his b'day which was very nice but dry and boring and not worth the calories. Decor was old looking and again, very franchise-y. Bathrooms were unkempt and messy. Front reception was not cordial and seemed bothered. Won't be going back. ONLY redeeming quality was our waiter!"
Dined on 2/15/2014
Used a discount voucher, $121
worth of food for $59 plus taxes and alcohol. We had a shared appetizer (spinach artichoke dip) 2 entree's (both had the 16 oz prime rib) and a shared dessert (Italian cream cake). Appetizer was fine, salads came out a little quick, then our entree's came out quick after that. The prime rib was well worth the coupon value, we both ordered the 16 oz cut medium rare and I swear they gave us about a 20 or 22 oz cut, it was huge but cooked perfectly. Sides were disappointing, I had the garlic mash, they had flavor but were just ok, my wife had the mac-n-cheese, no flavor and not much of a cheese sauce. Italian cream cake looked great, but lacked flavor. Big hit on the prime rib, everything else lacked a little bit."
Dined on 2/15/2014
This place has wonderful
atmosphere that is only surpassed by its food. The wait staff put you at ease and make you feel welcomed. It is truly a high class establishment with a family feel."
Dined on 2/12/2014
Have never had a bad experience.
Staff is great and food is so good"
Dined on 2/14/2014
Macaroni and cheese was not
stupindous, but prime rib and wine list was great. Robert was a terrific server."
Dined on 2/7/2014
I had the beet salad and it was
the best! Beets, apples, walnuts and blue cheese with grilled shrimp were a good combination Had garlic buttermilk dressing. Yum. Gumbo, not so good. Seafood gumbo with 2 crab claws did not fit the mouthwatering description on the menu. ): But, fried oyster appetizer was very good. My husband had the fried shrimp. They were delicious."
Dined on 2/5/2014
The last time I dined at
Laurenzo's my meal was excellent as was the service. The problem I had this time was with the many hostesses that waited to greet me (or not greet me). Three of them talking among each other when I arrived. Never looked up. Never acknowledged me. Finally when I was acknowledged, I was asked a simple "Yes?" I said "Yes, what?" The response: "What can I do for you?" My response: "I have a reservations and would like to eat?" After the meal and as I was leaving and walking past the hostess stand I was wondering if I would get a "Thanks for dining with us", "Hope you enjoyed your meal". What I did get was two women checking out something on their cellphones. No "thank you", nothing."
Dined on 2/1/2014
I tried the fish with étouffée
topping. It tasted like crab in brown gravy. I guess they specialize in Ribeye so I ordered wrong. The service started good but ended really slow. I will not return to this restaurant. The menu offers a big variety of food but we didn't enjoy it."
Dined on 2/2/2014
We had another wonderful
experience at Laurenzo's. The food is always wonderful (this time my prime rib was slightly over-cooked -- sent it back and they replaced it immediately with no questions asked or making me feel guilty for sending it back). Michael waited on us this time and he was great. Even though the restaurant is clear across town from where we live, we get there as often as possible for the great food and service."
Dined on 1/31/2014
I am beginning to use this Houston
favorite as my go to place for out of town visitors. (Most of my friends already know of this Washington Avenue hot spot for great Prime Rib.) If you like beef, go here. One of the ladies in our party ordered Red Fish, an off menu item. It was beautifully prepared beautifully and showed this Gulf Coast star off in all of its fresh from the water grandeur. The atmosphere is a rustic sports memorabilia collection that is just a fascinating and charming display of the Houston Sports (and some of those others, like Michael Jordan, Vince Young and Johhny Manziel). The price is not outrageous, but don't expect chain store pricing either. It is very much worth its reasonable price."
Dined on 2/1/2014
We always enjoy an evening at
Laurenzo's, but the only challenge is deciding what to order amongst the many outstanding choices. The server mentioned that they had brocolini as a side that night, which we chose - it was the best ever. I wish they offered a plate of sides - choose 3 or 5 to make your own meal! An excellent meal had by all. The only disappointments were the Caesar salads - they had little taste that night."
Dined on 2/1/2014
food, service, atmosphere are all
great.......recommend it for any ocassion,,,,"
Dined on 1/3/2014
We have eaten at Laurenzo's many
times - with friends, family and by ourselves. We know we can always count on the dining experience to be perfect. We were celebrating our adult son's birthday - there were five of us and it was great as always! This was the first time for my 83 year old mother - she is still talking about it! We - of course - enjoyed the Prime Rib, the French Dip, fried oysters & shrimp, Queso, calamari, and of course their wonderful desserts. We will continue to be loyal diners and supporters."
Dined on 1/26/2014
We made a last minute reservation,
just spur of the moment . The food was great, they are extremely customer centric and it was a very enjoyable evening. The prime rib is amazing!"
Dined on 1/25/2014
If you've not tried this place
then I strongly suggest you stop by. The waiters are excellent and the food is always tasty."
Dined on 1/25/2014
i have been wanting to try
Laurenzos for awhile, and finally got my chance. My husband's daughter got the tuna steaks.. she said they were very good. I loved my filet mignon: tender, and cooked just right. My husband got the prime rib which he said was good. It was crowded, and I am glad we had a reservation. we were there early, but they seated us anyway which i thought was very nice. I'd go there again, but would like to sit at the bar and watch sports."
Dined on 1/25/2014
Though my husband and I frequent
Laurenzo's and admire many things on their menu, we nearly always end up ordering their perfect filets (charred outside, medium rare inside). An ample side of asparagus or sauteed spinach (sometimes baked sweet potato) completes the dish. Often, we have leftover steak and I bring it home to enjoy the next day...still fabulous!"
Dined on 1/12/2014
We kept hearing that Laurenzo's
was AMAZING so we decided to give it a try for my bday. This is not a "romantic" spot for a date night, but perfect place to take the kids. The service was "OK". They forgot to bring out my salad, they messed up our final bill, and they did not put horse radish on the French Dip plate. Minor issues but was a major hassle trying to get our orders right since it was so crowded. The food wasn't anything special either."
Dined on 1/17/2014
I have been to Laurenzo's several
times in the last few years, and this time was no different. The server was attentive, and the food was FANTASTIC, as usual. Laurenzo's is "famous" in Houston for their prime rib dishes, but they have many other options as well."
Dined on 1/19/2014
We wanted to meet some old friends
and visit over dinner on a Sat night. The noise level was a bit higher than we would have liked, but the food and cheerful ambience were very good. Our server Joy was excellent. She was attentive, but gave us time to visit. The prime rib was excellent. There was a good choice of beers and wines to complement the food. It is a little out of our way, but we will definitely be back."
Dined on 1/18/2014
Absolutely one of the best places
in Houston for Prime Rib if not the best."
Dined on 11/30/2013
What a great place! From the
moment we walked in. The hostess was friendly and genuinely happy to see us (that's how we felt, this was our first time there). Stood and watched the chefs preparing food - my husband decided on the prime rib just from watching. Joy, our server, was a joy - very pleasant & attentive. We ordered appetizers, flautas & chips & queso with guacamole - great start. The shrimp and grits were amazing, as were the prime rib, ribs and French dip. Deserts are fabulous - we had the brownie, a huge slice of italian creme cake and the key lime pie. They have sports memorabilia you can buy any of the pieces hanging on the walls and they will donate the proceeds to your favorite charity! A great experience!"
Dined on 1/18/2014
the varied menu offers something
for everyone and the wait staff on both visits has been exceptional-our table was not quite ready and the hostess really begged our forgiveness and the wait was less than 5 minutes-they seemed distressed-the menu is varied fresh and delicious. The weekend brunch menu is eye popping-two quibbles: extra large portions (to many not a quibble) and my mac and cheese needed more cheese-other than that I cannot say enough about this fabulous restaurant and how fresh and delicious it is. We went with friends and we all agreed it was a home run-we will go often-I have a large menu to taste through. It is full but again the staff is incredibly attentive and though energetic not noisy. A winner."
Dined on 1/17/2014
The food was delicious as usual,
but the service was outstanding!! It was a birthday dinner for myself and son in law and we both agreed this was our choice restaurant!! Great menu with food that people love!! Seafood and pulled pork are outstanding. Great place and great fun!!"
Dined on 1/17/2014
I loved the dining experience and
the steaks were A+++++. I had never heard or been to this restaurant. My son gave me a gift certificate for Mother's Day and we were finally able to use it. Our waitress was the bomb and was so very helpful in helping with our food selections too. Excellent food and central location. We will be going back to try other foods the restaurant has to offer!"
Dined on 1/12/2014
Very good place for prime rib,
steaks, and ribs. They also have seafood, but my wife and I had the ribs. Good restaurant for meat eaters, but not outstanding. Popular spot for local folks with friendly and helpful servers. Very noisy as the restaurant was completely packed with customers on Friday night."
Dined on 1/10/2014
The food was pretty good. We opted
for the spinach and artichoke dip appetizer. Laurenzo's version was solid. I had the full rack of ribs and French fries. The meat was literally falling off the bones. Delicious. The fries were cooked and served with a nice garlicky garnish that added to the flavor. My friend had the grilled chicken which was tasty. For dessert, we had the bread pudding. It was a little mushy from the ice cream, but the flavor was good (hints of cinnamon, pumpkin). I would try a different dessert next time. Although I probably wouldn't drive out of the way to eat here, I live fairly close by and if I was looking for a standard, solid American fare without lots of frills, I would consider Laurenzo's near the top of my list."
Dined on 1/8/2014
What a delightful restaurant. The
food was spectacular. If you are reading this review, I recommend you ask for Oscar. He is one of the best waiters I've ever encountered. Fantastic."
Dined on 1/9/2014
We went to Laurenzo's for our 13th
anniversary. I had purchase a voucher from TravelZoo, which they accepted without any difficulty. They have a good wine selection (Monday nights happened to be half price bottles, bonus!) The appetizer calamari was not overly breaded, cooked very well, with a good marinara to go with it. We both had the 12oz prime rib, and it was the medium rare that we ordered. The side dishes that accompanied it were delicious also. We finished with the brownie Sunday. Even without the voucher, the meal would have been very reasonable for the price. Our server was great. He was attentive without being too hovering, and we enjoyed our evening thoroughly. We will be back for sure."

Visiting family from Colorado; had
a great birthday lunch on the way to the airport. Food was great, service was great - a dining experience that enhanced the celebration instead of trying to BE the celebration."

I Felt It Kick!: Mommy Tummy, The Most Realistic Pregnancy Simulater To Date
This is a vest and computer program called Mommy Tummy, a pregnancy simulator for men that cuts the the entire 'growing a baby' process down from nine months to two minutes. That...sounds like a minute and fifty seconds too long.
Developed by the Kanagawa Institute of Technology, the Mommy Tummy is a pregnancy simulator that goes beyond merely simulating baby weight, it actually allows the father to feel the baby kicking, rolling around in the womb, and gradually increases the size of the stomach and breast regions over time to mimic the body changes experienced over a nine month period.
There's a video explanation of how the system works after the jump, but I got morning sickness (then poured a jar of pickle juice over a bowl of Rocky Road ice cream!) just thinking about being pregnant. But apparently some guys just have to know what it feels like. And those men? Male chauvinists. GOD, AT LEAST LET THEM HAVE PREGNANCY!
Hit the jump for the freaky-deaky.
Mommy Tummy may be the most realistic pregnancy simulator ever [dvice]

It took 24 minutes, but New York was finally able to secure a first down, giving Mark Sanchez a chance to take matters into his own hands.
Did he ever.
The Jets quarterback drove his offense-deprived team 76 yards into the red zone across 10 plays. From there, the USC standout ran it five yards for a touchdown with an emphatic dive into the end zone.
Miami, who saw Dan Carpenter boot one between the uprights from 21 yards out, trail the Jets14-6 at halftime.
While Sanchez and Co. may have finally found their groove, Matt Moore and the winless fish continue to have problems finding the end zone, settling for field goals despite several opportunities to penetrate the New York defense.
The bottom line? Reggie Bush, who continues to rack up significant yardage, can't be the only Dolphin contributing with just 30 minutes left to play.
Miami needs a big second half — or a Jets meltdown.

As usual, Marietta's Carol Lazear Mitchell was quick to take the left-wing, anti-firearms view suggesting 300 well-sheltered college presidents and a few others - current president included - should have the right to push policy in the direction that ignores the very roots of our country's strength - our Constitution. Those who push for stronger restrictions on gun control are suggesting the entire document be set aside because it does not suit their view of the world today.
I submit the founders of our country were brilliant in their anticipation of society's changing ways and capricious moves when they made it very difficult to alter the Constitution. It has only been done 27 times in 236 years, but there is a legal and specific procedure for doing so. As long as no amendment is approved using the specified process, the second of those 27 amendments must stand unshaken and unstirred just as it is. That amendment, as it stands and has stood for over two centuries is very specific as well. "Infringed" is described in present-day dictionary as coming from the Latin "infringere," which is to break or weakened. Therefore my simple question to those who would require additional encumbrances to the possession and carry of firearms is this:
What part of "... shall not be infringed" do you not understand?
If you want to require that a government official make the decision about who can and cannot defend themselves through the ownership of firearms, then change the Constitution. Yes, it is difficult, but having done it 27 times, it is not impossible. But doing so is the only legal manner in which any restriction on the ownership of firearms can pass Constitutional muster. The founders saw it as the best way to ensure the Constitution could be defended if the need arose.
By the way, our Sheriff, Ken Merritt, by signing the recently publicized petition, has done what most political office holders will not do: he has honored his oath of office. This is something for which he should be applauded, not condemned.

A second World Conference on Disaster Reduction, following the first one held in Yokohama in 1994, is planned to be held in Kobe-Hyogo, Japan, in January 2005. Several thematic and regional consultations to review achievements and good practices, gaps and critical areas that need to be further addressed in relation to reducing risk to natural hazards will take place during 2003 and 2004.
As part of this preparatory process UN-ISDR has requested UN-HABITAT to take the lead in organizing an international consultation in the form of a meeting to review urban risk management practices and policies. The aim of the meeting will be to bring together international, regional and local initiatives and programmes in this area to draw lessons and discuss targets and needed action for the future.
The Expert Group Meeting on Risk and Human Settlements will take place in Madrid during the second week of September 2004, one week prior to the UN-HABITAT's second session of the World Urban Forum that takes place from 13-17 September in Barcelona. The EGM will, therefore, act also as a lead up towards the WUFII as it is anticipated that selected participants from the Madrid Conference will take part in the WUFII events.

We live in a time of information abundance, which far too many of us see as information overload. With the sum total of human knowledge, past and present, at our fingertips, we're faced with a crisis of attention: which ideas should we engage with, and why? Big Think is an evolving roadmap to the best thinking on the planet — the ideas that can help you think flexibly and act decisively in a multivariate world.
A word about Big Ideas and Themes — The architecture of Big Think
Big ideas are lenses for envisioning the future. Every article and video on bigthink.com and on our learning platforms is based on an emerging "big idea" that is significant, widely relevant, and actionable. We're sifting the noise for the questions and insights that have the power to change all of our lives, for decades to come. For example, reverse-engineering is a big idea in that the concept is increasingly useful across multiple disciplines, from education to nanotechnology.
Themes are the seven broad umbrellas under which we organize the hundreds of big ideas that populate Big Think. They include New World Order, Earth and Beyond, 21st Century Living, Going Mental, Extreme Biology, Power and Influence, and Inventing the Future.
Browse videos featuring experts across a wide range of disciplines, from personal health to business leadership to neuroscience.
Big Think's contributors offer expert analysis of the big ideas behind the news.

Also, iPad has been witnessing new approaches to convert the content of textbooks to iPad, and iPad textbooks are starting to be developed with initiatives such as State of Virginia Digital Curriculum, which provides schools with access to an interactive learning platform. Publishing firms have also started to adapt to this transition. Recently, Apple has announced an alliance with Pearson, McGraw-Hill, and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt to roll out K-12 e-books. Hence, with the increasing adoption of e-books, the Global e-Learning market is expected to sustain its growth in the coming years.''

Truth & Rumors > NBA
Should the Charlotte Bobcats be taken seriously?

05:38 PM ET 11.15 | In 66 total games last season, the Charlotte Bobcats set a new benchmark for futility in the NBA by winning just seven of those contests, which equaled out to a .106 winning percentage. Through the first seven games of the 2012/13 season, the Bobcats have a record of 4-3. They are just three victories away from tying their win total from all of last season. Am I missing something here? I'm not downplaying Charlotte's early success at all. I didn't see it coming. None of you did either.
They are gonna win the title.
......no they won't even make the playoff
If the Bobcats go from 7 wins to let's say 35, I think Mike Dunlap should get Coach of the Year.

The Cavs should be considered before the Bobcats.
Total Comments (3858)
I hate to say this, but I'm not giving up on the cats. Now I'm not saying there better than the heat, I mean, we killed them in our last season home games. But still, to see these newbies defeat the mavericks in OT plus the timberwolves and top division teams, I think the cats might for once have some spirit in themselves. As far as we know, they were one game away from knocking the heat off 1st, until we beat the nuggets. But still, it's early. Lets see what happens Saturday.
But before we make high or low assumptions, we should be reminded that the cats nevered played as bad as last year. From '08-'10, they averaged about maybe 35-40 wins. But '11, they acted like Indianapolis colts without Peyton playing. If they want to improve their game, they have to beat the grizzlies this Saturday. If they do, well, like I said before, it is too soon to tell. But as of now, if they want to at least be considered serious enough to be credited for their work, they have to continue strentghing and maintaining that division lead gap between the hawks and heat.
Their young players are putting up... That Biyombo kid is fun to watch play...

Latinos Believe Arizona Republican Secretary of State Ken Bennett Interfering With Latino Rights To Vote
For Immediate Release
Lead Co-Presidnet - Shirl Mora James: 402-890-2295
National Communications Contact: 480-200-3748
18 May 2012
Phoenix, AZ - The National Tequila Party believes the Arizona Republican Secretary of State -- Ken Bennett is interfering with our right to vote under the Voter Rights Act of 1965. Latinos believe this may be an attempt by Republican leaders to quash Latino voters who will more than likely vote for President Obama in our key swing State of Arizona due to the anti-immigrant rhetoric and sentiment produced by ousted and former Republican Senator Russell Pearce and the Republican Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
Bennett told a radio interviewer yesterday it was "possible" he would keep Obama off the ballot if the issue isn't resolved.
Currently there are about 500,000 registered Latino voters in Arizona; 47% are registered as Democrats, 15% as Republicans and 37% as independents
. More and more Latino Get Out the Vote efforts are underway in our State of Arizona and across our Nation, and we will begin raising money in preparation of litigation if our right to vote is interfered with by the Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett in the upcoming November 2012 Presidential elections. Ken Bennett's move is reminiscent to what they do in communist countries like Cuba.
The long form of Obama's birth certificate has already been shown
. Furthermore, in order to run for the President of the United States of America, presidential candidates go through tremendous screening, scrutiny and vetting.
About the
National Tequila Party Movement
The National Tequila Party Movement is a female-led political movement. More females vote in Presidential elections than men strong Latina matriarchs are emerging. It is our goal to communicate to females and Latina matriarchs across the nation with regard to the need for compassion towards undocumented immigrants and the need to fix the broken immigration system. The Tequila Party is currently organizing a national tour of concerts, events, dinners and college rallies that will encourage a massive Latino Get Out The Vote and political participation. This movement is a non-partisan movement. We don't care how people vote, we just want them to get on the early ballot system, become consistent primary and general election voters.

The Anaheim Ducks have sent 19-year-old forward Rickard Rakell back to Plymouth Whalers of the Ontario Hockey League.
Rakell, has played in four games with the Ducks this season, posting no points.
The 30th selection of the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, had been a scratch for the Ducks' last seven games.
By sending Rakell down now, the Ducks won't burn the first year of his entry-level deal.
Last season, Rakell posted 28 goals and 34 assists in 60 games with the Whalers.
Martin St. Louis is a Ranger, Matt Moulson is a member of the Minnesota Wild and the Montreal Canadiens have Thomas Vanek. Look back at all the big name deals that went down.

NEHGS Database Newsby Sam Sturgis, Digital Collections Administrator, and Ryan Woods, Director of Internet Technology
The Essex Genealogist, Volumes 11–15 The leading publication for genealogical research in Essex County, Massachusetts, this quarterly journal has been published since 1981 by The Essex Society of Genealogists (founded in 1975).Within the pages of this journal are selections of cemetery transcriptions, Bible records, and vital and church records relating to Essex County families. Over the years, The Essex Genealogist also published numerous member ahnentafels (ancestor tables), as well as verbatim transcriptions of lectures. Currently, volumes 1 to 15 (publications years 1981–1995) are available. Additional volumes will be added through the year.The database is searchable by first and last name; volume and page; article title; and subject. There are now 116,890 records in this database.

A Note from the Editor: Genealogical "Clan" Characteristics by Lynn Betlock, EditorAn article on the website of the British newspaper The Mirror recently reported that British World War I soldiers with the names White, Walker, and Thomas were most likely to have won medals for gallantry. The data comes from ancestry.co.uk, which compiled a list of soldiers awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal. The article went on to report: "Despite research revealing only 4% of people know about their ancestors from the Napoleonic war era, 41% believe they have got at least one hero in their family tree and two million think there is a bravery gene that runs in families."Claims of a bravery gene reminded me of the introduction to The Grant Family: A Genealogical History of the Descendants of Matthew Grant of Windsor, Conn., 1601–1898 by Arthur Hastings Grant. (Published in 1898, the book is available on Archive.org.) I've never seen such sweeping claims for common family characteristics across hundreds of years and thousands of miles as in this book. Arthur Grant grouped the Grant family into a clan system — "each clan consists of the descendants of one of the great-grandsons of Matthew Grant in the male line" — and enumerated general family and specific clan characteristics in the introduction.
Certain other traits are found generally throughout the Family, among which may be noted absolute honesty in word and deed, unflinching tenacity of purpose, and a tendency to reticence and unobtrusiveness. . . . The Family has been characterized by a devoted loyalty to American institutions, not a royalist being found among them, and many who did not fight in the Revolution rendered services of equal value at home . . . There have of course been black sheep among us, although the compiler has not felt it necessary to uncloset the few skeletons that we have; but Dr. Patterson, whose opinion was based upon a wide knowledge of the history of New England families, said that ours was the cleanest he knew, and a corroboration of this is found in the fact that only seven illegitimate births have come to the knowledge of the compiler.There is, however, a marked difference in the characteristics of the various clans . . . This is especially noticeable in the matter of general education, one clan in particular being on the verge of illiteracy, while another (Z) is noted for its long continued interest in educational matters. Three clans suffered to an unusual degree from consumption and one from intemperance, but both these tendencies appear to have been largely overcome. Considered geographically, clans A, C, and Z are the most widely dispersed, while L and Q are the most concentrated, the former in southern New York and the later in two small districts in Connecticut and Ohio; it is quite probable that these two clans would be benefited by migration, as too close a nesting of families tends ultimately to impair vitality and check development. Clan B resides in the South; it has been noted throughout its history for its military achievements, and was at one time the wealthiest clan, but suffered severely through the Civil War. K is today unquestionably the wealthiest of the larger clans. A, K, L, and Q are noted for raising large families, while D and E have narrowly escaped extinction, and within a few years the name will have disappeared in clan H.
I have used the Grant genealogy myself (my husband and children being members of Clan B) and found it to be quite reliable. Arthur Grant was clearly a devoted and meticulous genealogist, but his opinions about family characteristics seem quaint and rather misguided from a modern perspective. Other nineteenth- and early twentieth-century genealogies also reveal quirky or outdated philosophies that I personally find fascinating, as part of the ongoing evolution of the field of genealogy.
Name Originsby Julie Helen Otto, Staff Genealogist
NAPHTALI/NAPHTHALI (m): One of the twelve sons of Jacob; his mother was Bilhah (maid of Jacob's favorite wife Rachel). (Genesis 30:8). One New England example is Naphtali Webb (1729–1804) of Scotland and Hanover, Conn., a son of Zebulon and Judith (Hayward/Howard) Webb of Windham and Canterbury, Conn.; he married Mary Mudge (Rev. John Adams Vinton, The Giles Memorial [Boston, 1864], pp. 511, 518).The name was popular in the Daggett family of Attleborough, Mass., as apparent from that town's VRs, where as many as seven appear (pp. 90, 659), including: Naphthali Daggett, "slain by a tree," 6 March 1717/8, no age; Naphthali Daggett, b. 6 Jan. 1724/5, son of Thomas and Sarah (Stanley) Daggett; and two sons of Thomas and Sibble (Stanley) Daggett, b. 18 March 1757 (d. Attleborough 13 July 1769 and 19 Aug. 1771).
This Week's Survey
Last week's survey asked if you make your genealogical information available online. The results are:48%, I do not have my genealogical information online.32%, I have my genealogical information online on a commercial genealogical website, available to anyone who can access the site.13%, I have my genealogical information online, on a website accessible by invitation only.7%, I have my genealogical information online on a personal genealogical website, available to anyone.Although this survey only allowed respondents to choose one answer, several readers wrote to let us know that they use more than one of these options. Richard Greenough commented: "I keep trees under all three online options. My three largest GEDCOMs are free on Rootsweb. Several smaller active research trees are on Ancestry.com. Two or three very small trees on Ancestry are kept private. I also have a personal domain with free PDF reports."Although many people have had positive experiences with posting genealogical information online, one reader shared his negative experience. Ronald Miller wrote: "This week's survey question about putting genealogy information online struck a nerve. I have done a lot of research since the early 1980s, by going to the places where my ancestors lived and exhausting the resources of the local courthouse, library, cemeteries, historians, genealogists, etc. In addition to U.S. destinations, my research has taken me to locations in England, France, Germany, and Switzerland, among them many places with records never microfilmed by the LDS. I did my best to write complete histories — not just family trees with names and dates. "To make a long story short, much of my research has been copied online word-for-word by other people without even a mention of who wrote it. One person even had the nerve to copy my footnotes, which included commentary such as 'I visited the cemetery on 10 June 1984 and found the headstones, but later learned at the library that they had been moved.' In another case, someone copied one of my histories but substituted an incorrect maiden name, and that erroneous maiden name is now shown on hundreds of Internet family trees. When I discovered it, I tried to correct the error but people responded by claiming "everybody else" says the name is correct. Given that I have spent thousands of hours, dollars, Euros, francs, pounds, etc., putting together histories and now maybe hundreds of people are taking credit for my writing, I doubt if I will ever put anything online. I believe that people should understand what could potentially happen to their information if they do."Mr. Miller's experience has prompted this week's survey question, which asks you to characterize your experience of sharing genealogical information online. Take the survey now!

Posted By lowwater on 03 May 2011 09:36 PM Yes Captain, you are right on the Rooster tail not spinning. I use them some and when I do I give a little jurk after it hits the water and start reeling right as I jurk and that gets it going. Try it and see if it works for you. lowwater
Posted By benwah on 04 May 2011 02:33 AM I think the blue fox spinners have the best action, but I like the Panther Martins for the variety of sizes and patterns they come in. Same problem with the Rooster Tails. What river are you talking about Quantum? Just in case I find myself there one day, I'll know not to keep ANYTHING out of it.

Overall Experience: I have just started attending the school, but I have received more training in career services.
Online Courses: I like the fact that all homework will be submitted online. I am taking the courses on the campus right now. I learn more interacting with peer and professor. Working in teams we can learn from each other.
Academic Flexibility: I had no problems getting into school, since I had a good GPA. I like the time we meet for classes. All homework is due before class. You can only miss one class otherwise you can be dropped from school.
Career Services: I have only looked at the career center and it has helped me see what I should know once I go job searching. I have not looked for any jobs yet, as I want to spend my time studying. Getting the best grade possible.
Tuition & Financial Aid: The school's tuition is about the same for all the universities in Arizona. I am saving a lot of money in transportation and time. I think the fees are worth the money.
Academic Experience: I am in the MBA program and to be accepted I had to have a grade point average of 3.0. I received two other degrees at ASU. I like the fact that University of Phoenix is closer to where I live. I am told their is a lot of networking done to obtain jobs and I plan to start when I get more classes completed. I am going to specialize in Health Care Management and I will try to network when I am taking the classes. I have looked into the classes they teach and they are all the same topics as other universities in the state of AZ. I like that fact we have some assignment work as a team to complete. In the real world businesses have people working in teams to complete the goals of the company. I like the fact they had us do a career project that we looked into the type of jobs that are out in the field we are studying. I never got that at ASU, as I only had brief counseling, which I had to wait over one hour past the time I had scheduled. Afterwards they told me I would have to pay money for any additional information on careers. I am thinking University of Phoenix will be their to help me succeed. As I have been told, they give services even after graduation. I believe University of Phoenix will help me change my career.
Academic Experience: All my scheduling for classes was done for me once I got accepted. Now I know all the classes I will take up to the end. Most of the registration process was done over the phone. I had to email a scan document that I give them permission to get a copy of my transcripts from ASU.
Facilities: I like the fact the teacher all have experience in the field they teach. My teacher for Management has been a project manager he has over 20 years experience. He informed us that right now he is working for American Express as a project manager in IT.
Campus Resources: You are able to print out 100 pages a week on campus, so it is great for people who do not have printers. Their IT people are willing to help you 24 hours a day. They have an place were you can use computers and rooms to study. You can also use their equipment to practice presentations. They have an online library, which you have tons of information you can read to cite you papers. They have some training classes that are free to help you study. An example is MS Word, MS Excel, Statics, etc These are training classes that can be done on a weekend and all in one day. That way once you have sharpen your skill and take a class for credit - you can get a good grade.
Campus Resources: I am new to the school, but I have learned about the library. The library is on the internet and you can search by specific topic, general topic, journals, etc. The librarian came to our class to inform us how to search information within the library. The school has a librarian on campus and they will answer questions 24 hours a day. If you are having problem looking for something at 2am they will respond back to you.
Student Body: I see all different types of ethnic groups within the university. The people that are in my class are older and they are looking for advancement within the companies. I believe once we all obtain a MBA we will be all working in management. I have not asked about political and religious discussions, as it is best never to discuss it with people. I do have one person in my class that is a muslin. He has stated in class he has just moved to Phoenix and never plans to go back to Iran. He informed us that one of his relatives were killed because of the religion. He stated before all the trouble they had some Christians, and Jews living in their country with no problems. Thinks have changed now and He is glad to be gone from Iran. I do not like to discuss with people regarding their sexuality. I believe that is a private matter. All the guys in my class have stated they are married and have children. I am the only single person in the classroom. It does not matter to me what sexuality a person is or not. I have noticed that the students in my class, are helpful.

Overall Experience: I am very pleased to have taken this step to enroll in the University of Phoenix. The staff has been very friendly and supportive. All questions have been answered and staff is always available as any other questions may come up during the course work. Every staff member is available and the instructors are always ready to help as well as classmates. This is a very friendly and helpful campus and I feel I have made a great decision.
Tuition & Financial Aid: I feel more comfortable with the way that the financial aid is explained for students. There is so much information to take in when it comes to financial aid, however the financial aid staff does a very good job to make this process so much easier to manage and to make the right decisions when it comes to paying for education.
Academic Experience: The Healthcare Administration program is highly involved with the medical field and the classes are set up accordingly to be able to prepare for the position in the work setting. There is so much that is thought and can be learned if the program is taken seriously.
Academic Experience: The registration process is so easy and makes the process of beginning so much smoother. Once classes have started all the instructors are very helpful and informative of everything that is available for students. The outline of the classes is easy to read and self explanatory. There is usually not much that is needed to ask from the instructors. The online programs are very well set up.
Campus Resources: The online resources are user friendly and easy to navigate at any level of computer knowledge. There is so much to learn and everything is updated on a regular basis. The campus offer their computers for students that are not able to print from home or that may not have access to a computer to complete their course work.

An investigation is under way after an elderly Bronx woman was found dead in her Williamsbridge Road home Saturday morning in a case that police are treating as a homicide.
Police said a relative called police after finding Evelyn Shapiro, 88, unconscious and unresponsive shortly before 10 a.m. Saturday inside an apartment at the Pelham Parkway Houses on Williamsbridge Road in Allerton.
Police said they found the door unlocked and groceries scattered all over the apartment when they arrived.
Shapiro suffered blunt force trauma to the head, according to police.
Police said EMS pronounced her dead at the scene.
Neighbors who spoke with NY1 say Shapiro was a caring woman who was quite active.
"The apartment was ransacked. And there was maybe some jewelry and stuff missing. But until they speak back with her family, I don't think they'll know for sure," said one neighbor.
"Sick to my stomach. It's making me think, maybe I should leave now. Things are getting this bad around here," said another.
Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. released a statement Saturday afternoon praising Shapiro as "a well-known pillar of her community" and vowed to find "her murderer."
"I call on anyone with information about this murder to come forward so that we can put this savage behind bars," he said. "Anyone who could so brutally take the life of an 88-year-old woman is a monster, has no place in our society and the sooner they are off of our streets the better."
Anyone with information about the case is being asked to contact Crime Stoppers by calling 1-800-577-TIPS, by texting TIP577 to CRIMES, or by going to NYPDCrimeStoppers.com.

Smith, Thompson face off to be Adair County Commissioner
Adair County residents will vote for a Second District County Commissioner Tuesday.
Larry Lee Smith is challenging the incumbent Mark Thompson in the election for Adair County Second District Commissioner.
Smith, who's a farmer, said he decided to run for the position because he is concerned with road and bridge maintenance in Adair County.
"I don't like to hear cutbacks on our road and bridge employees and on an hourly basis and so I don't know what happened to their budget, how they failed to get something in?" Smith said. "I just want to scan that budget."
Smith served as Adair County Commissioner from 1978 to 1979.
Incumbent commissioner Mark Thompson said the position means being faced with more business decisions.
"In Adair County, unfortunately, we have a lot of needs and we don't have very much money to take care of those needs," Thompson said. "So, we do the best we can with what we have to do with it."
In addition to overseeing the county's roads and bridges, the commission approves its annual budget and establishes policy,

Horse show diary
Horse Rider Memories is a comprehensive database for your horse show experiences. With a layout that children can master, this is a great program for storing your history with horses.
We immediately felt comfortable with the program's simple, cartoonish layout and are confident that any child old enough to type and work a computer would also get the hang of it. The program did an excellent job of capturing every aspect of our horse shows with practically no snags. From logging in each show's performance in a journal entry to adding photos of the horse, we were able … Read more

Think about Intel, hon...it's a blast.
With our current commander and chief and the rules of engagement he has in place, I could not in good conscious suggest to anyone to go into the military for any reason.
Actually, the woman in question was in Air Force Security Forces, which is open to women. Security Forces have a sniper force, culled from their ranks. She was deployed to the FOB where I spent last summer, in Kirkuk. Her exploits were well known out there. I believe she went on to be chosen as one of the 12 outstanding airmen of the year. From her pictures, she looks like a petite young gal, but I heard from other SF, that she was a badass.
Looks like you may have found your calling, Sweetheart. My daughter was an Army Medic and served most of a tour in Iraq. She was in an MP unit and though women are not supposed to serve in combat, she was involved several firefights, ambushes, IED attacks and was wounded in a grenade attack.
Remember that the recruiters are going to try their best to put you in a field where the Air Force is short. Be firm and hold out for something you're pretty sure you'd be interested in. With your scores, you should qualify for most fields. They will probably try to persuade you that if you go into something they recommend, you can go in quickly. They'll tell you if you hold out for what you want, it could take a long time to get in. I won't say they're lying, but maybe exaggerating. Be firm, and you might find an opening in your choice suddenly come up.
The Air Force? Don't they get a medal just for finishing boot camp?
Just kidding. If I couldn't have gone Navy, I would have gone Air Force.
Best of luck to you.

former new jersey resident admits role in real estate scam
that defrauded family friends
July 10, 2012 |
TRENTON, N.J. – An Oklahoma woman who formerly lived in Ridgewood, N.J., pleaded guilty today a scheme to defraud two New Jersey families relating to the purchase, financing and improvement of real estate in Oklahoma, U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman announced.
Taya Romano, (a/k/a "Taya Waldon"), 36, pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Peter G. Sheridan in Trenton federal court to an Information charging her with conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
According to documents filed in this and a related case and statements made in court:
In 2008 and 2009, Taya Romano conspired with her then-husband to solicit and obtain money from two sets of family friends in New Jersey for investments in what Romano represented to be purchases of apartment complexes and undeveloped land in Oklahoma. Romano solicited a series of investments from each of the two sets of family friends, obtaining a total of $1,032,750 from one couple and $890,000 from the other couple. Romano and her husband did not use these funds for the purposes for which they had represented.
The charge to which Romano pleaded guilty is punishable by a maximum potential penalty of five years in prison and a fine of $250,000, or twice the amount of pecuniary loss suffered by the victims of the conspiracy. Sentencing is scheduled for Nov. 25, 2012.
U.S. Attorney Fishman credited special agents of the FBI, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Michael B. Ward, with the investigation leading to today's guilty plea.
The government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorney Bohdan Vitvitsky of the U.S. Attorney's Economic Crimes Unit.
Defense counsel: Brian J. Neary Esq., Hackensack, N.J.
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) announced that federal disaster aid has been made available to the State of New Jersey.

After a full day of classes during my first semester at Imperial Valley College, an unexpected telephone call came in from a person that would have a profound impact on my course in life. "This is Dr. Richard Barsan. Is Jackie available?" he asked. I inquisitively answered, "Yes, this is Jackie." That was our introduction.
Our partnership began with the recommendation from my dentist, Dr. Ronald Stillman, who recently retired from dental practiced in Brawley. During an appointment Dr. Stillman and I had discussed my interest in pursuing a career as a registered dental hygienist. He offered advice and encouragement; most importantly he listened and took interest.
"Would you be interested in coming in for an interview for a part-time dental assistant?" Dr. Barsan asked. As a recent high school graduate with no previous experience working in a dental office, I nervously answered, "Yes." Shortly after our meeting, I began training in his oral surgery practice in El Centro. He willingly accommodated my college course schedule, knowing my long-term career goal. He knew that his investment of knowledge, resources and time would eventually leave his practice. However, he never held back in providing learning opportunities, such as paying for my training to become certified in dental X-ray and oral and maxillofacial surgery assisting.
During my time at Dr. Barsan's office, he would often share stories of his oral surgery residency at Charity Hospital I New Orleans, which is now closed due to damage from Hurricane Katrina. The stories centered on the precise skills of surgery, commitment to patient care and compassion to serve those in need. His stories reinforced the qualities required of healthcare workers and the reason I had chosen to enter the profession.
His commitment to my professional growth inspired me to work hard, persevere and display professionalism. After leaving his practice to pursue my degree in dental hygiene, we would routinely talk on the phone or meet for lunch when I was in town. Our conversations were centered on my professional development. Yet they also became personal. He was now more than a colleague; he was my friend. We would share stories about our families, his children, my wedding and politics.
When I returned to the Imperial Valley, our meetings were often monthly, as he was president of the Imperial Valley Dental Society for numerous years, organizing continuing education opportunities for the dental professionals of our community and as an active advisory board member for the Imperial Valley Regional Occupational Program, dental assistant course.
He continued to provide his knowledge and expertise to further develop others.
As noted motivational speaker, Zig Ziglar stated, "A lot of people have gone further than they thought they could because someone else thought they could." As a close-knit community, the Imperial Valley is a prime place to begin and develop your role in mentoring.
Opportunities exist as demonstrated by the abundance of youth sports programs, afterschool support services provided by the Boys and Girls Club of Imperial Valley, Heber Chess Club, PADRES program at IVROP, and the career Pathway Program at ECRMC to name a few. Developing our youths is an investment for our community; by taking an interest and active role in the personal and professional development of others, you have the potential to forever impact one life — or many.
After an afternoon teaching the IVROP dental assistant course at Southwest High School, a cell phone call with Dr. Barsan's name on the screen appeared.
"Well Jackie, I've officially sold my practice," I reluctantly heard him say. With a bittersweet heart, knowing this day would eventually come, I said, "Congratulations on your retirement, Dr. Barsan."
Jackie Valadez lives in Brawley.
