Long, Strange Trips
The last quarter-century in planetary exploration has stretched the limits of human imagination: the banner image of the Venera footpad on our sister planet, Venus, illustrates the challenges and rewards of reaching out in our solar neighborhood. The crusty surface just below that circularly-spiked footprint is hot enough to melt lead.
Even fewer may recognize that international teams have flown a balloon in the clouds on Venus, or touched down on an asteroid. Missions have intentionally crashed a spacecraft into the moon, in hopes of observing from Earth an ejected spray of lunar ice. In a spectacular planetary-scale catastrophe, orbiting telescopes have witnessed comets smash into Jupiter. A steady meteor stream has been found identifiably reaching Earth from Mars, Venus and the moon– many of which land on Antarctic fields with their interior temperatures never having exceeded one hundred degrees. Mars alone contributes fifteen annually.
More than four and half million home computers have been tied together, in hopes of detecting an intelligent radio signal from another planet. Their total computer processing units have combined what would take a single computer more than one and half million years to complete. A collosal asteroid strike on Earth has been proposed as what killed the dinosaurs. The moon itself has been modelled as originating from another terrestrial impact. In excess of one hundred planets have been found outside our solar system. Water-ice has been found on martian polar caps. A remote control rover has navigated safely between sharp martian boulders, while being driven from millions of miles away. Thick sheets of ice may cover an ocean on Jupiter's moon, Europa. The catalog of nearby habitable stars has tallied more than 17,000 candidates. Massive stars so dense that they represent a new kind of matter–so-called quark stars–populate the universe with exotic sub-atomic physics.
The quarter-century's timeline, by mission, year, and spacecraft, are highlighted in summary below with links to more information.
As this month begins an unprecedented blitz on Mars, including the first time that multiple landers will operate at the same time since 1977, the future of planetary exploration is also worth anticipating. Even more ambitious missions will attempt to land on a comet. A probe will try to land on Saturn's moon, Titan–the smoggy moon with a rich atmosphere almost as thick as Earth's. Many international returns to Mars are anticipated after the January 2004 landing assault, including intelligent rovers pre-programmed for hazard avoidance. The encyclopedic cataloguing of new planets will get help from new telescopes, ones specifically trying to image distant stars that dim as their comparatively dark and tiny planets transit and eclipse the light reaching us. Both fiery Mercury and frigid Pluto will become foci of new missions. Samples of solar wind and comet dust may be returned to Earth. New techniques for projectile sampling, where bullets are fired into the moon, Europa, and comets will complement the traditional land-and-scoop methods pioneered by Viking on Mars. New landing methods will extend the controlled collisions of airbag bounces in hopes of more accurate positioning and deployments. New solar-powered, ion engines will make the most of the least–charged particles provide fuel to go further at less cost than explosive chemical drives.
Astrobiology Magazine congratulates and commemorates those who have imagined what the surface of Venus might look like up-close, and wanted to drive a car on Mars.

When Kyle Williams ran on the field for the San Francisco 49ers' home opener against Green Bay, he wasn't just wearing his usual No. 10. He also had the No. 81 tattooed to his left arm.
The new tattoo is in memory of a former teammate of his at Arizona State University, Tyrice Thompson.
Thompson died on Feb. 2 from injuries suffered when he was stabbed a few days before while working as a bouncer at a Scottsdale nightclub.
Thompson's father, Richard Thompson, watched Williams and the 49ers beat the Packers Sunday afternoon.
"I was kind of nervous for him," Richard Thompson said of Williams. "I wanted to see him score a touchdown."
Williams didn't grab a touchdown but he did haul in three catches in his team's win, sporting the new "81" tattoo on his left forearm.
"Just the fact that he thought that much of [Tyrice] to make a tribute of that nature and to be well publicized, it's pretty much mind blowing," Richard Thompson said.
Williams tweeted about the tattoo earlier this month saying it's "for my brother," tagging Tyrice Thompson's Twitter handle in the message.
"He had that impact on [people] not just me but everyone and will truly be missed," Williams said.

This comprehensive bread cookbook brings gluten-free bread recipes to kitchens everywhere with unbelievably delicious recipes that make use of the convenient bread machine. Bread bakers will find tips and techniques for easy baking with bread machines and creating gluten-free breads everyone can enjoy.
About the Author
Donna Washburn and Heather Butt are best-selling authors, food stylists and recipe developers. There are 150,000 copies of their previous gluten-free cookbooks in print and more than 300,000 copies of their bread machine cookbooks in print.
Sample Recipe
Triple-Seed Brown Bread
A sandwich bread with a rich color and addedcrunch – what a treat!
Makes 15 slices
1-1/4 cups (300 mL) sorghum flour
2/3 cup (150 mL) whole bean flour
1/3 cup (75 mL ) tapioca starch
1/3 cup (75 mL ) rice bran
1/3 cup (75 mL) buttermilk powder
1 tablespoon (15 mL) xanthan gum
1-1/2 teaspoon (7 mL) bread machine or instant yeast
1-1/4 teaspoon (6 mL) salt
1/3 cup (75 mL) unsalted green pumpkin seeds, toasted
1/3 cup (75 mL) unsalted raw sunflower seeds, toasted
1/4 cup (60 mL) sesame seeds, toasted
1-1/4 cups (300 mL) water
2 tablespoons (30 mL) vegetable oil
2 tablespoons (30 mL) liquid honey
2 tablespoons (30 mL) light (fancy) molasses
1 teaspoon (5 mL) cider vinegar
3 eggs, lightly beaten
In a large bowl or plastic bag, combine sorghum flour, whole bean flour, tapioca starch, rice bran, buttermilk powder, xanthan gum, yeast, salt, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and sesame seeds; mix well and set aside.
Pour water, oil, honey, molasses and vinegar into the bread machine baking pan. Add eggs.
Select the Dough Cycle. As the bread machine is mixing, gradually add the dry ingredients, scraping bottom and sides of pan with a rubber spatula. Try to incorporate all the dry ingredients within 1 to 2 minutes. When the mixing and kneading are complete, remove the kneading blade, leaving the bread pan in the bread machine. Quickly smooth the top of the loaf. Allow the cycle to finish. Turn off the bread machine.
Select the Bake Cycle. Set time to 60 minutes and temperature to 350°F (180(C). Allow the cycle to finish. Do not turn machine off before taking the internal temperature of the loaf with an instant-read thermometer. It should be 200°F (100°C). If it's between 180°F (85°C) and 200°F (100°C), leave machine on the Keep Warm Cycle until baked. If it's below 180°F (85°C), turn on the Bake Cycle and check the internal temperature every 10 minutes. (Some bread machines are automatically set for 60 minutes; others need to be set by 10-minute intervals.)
Once the loaf has reached 200°F (100°C), remove it from the pan immediately and let cool completely on a rack.
You can purchase buttermilk powder in bulk stores and health food stores.
For a milder bread, substitute packed brown sugar for the molasses. Substitute brown rice flour, raw hemp powder or flaxseed meal for the rice bran. Replace the sesame seeds with cracked flaxseed, Hemp Hearts or poppy seeds

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

Ronda Rich's sweet tea column ("Sweet tea has always been the nectar of the South," Family & Spirit, Sept. 8) was a very refreshing read. As I have traveled over the country, I have found the same response when dining out: "We don't have sweet tea."In kindness, they proceed to tell you there is sugar on the table. Any true Southerner knows that you cannot sweeten cold tea. Once, while I was in Connecticut with my daughter, I asked for sweet tea just to see what kind of response I would receive. The answer was: "The cups and hot water are over by the wall." Of course this dear, deprived Southerner meant hot tea. So I have learned to ask for water if there is no sweet tea. Nectar of the South is a good name for sweet tea, but I love to refer to it as "house wine of the South."

The gas is on in Woodbridge this winter, and Governor Dannel Malloy was on hand at Amity High School Monday to press a case for natural gas -- and other forms of alternative energy -- in the rest of Connecticut. Malloy joined DEEP Commissioner Daniel Esty, Woodbridge First Selectman Edward Maum Sheehy, Amity Board of Education chairman William Blake and Principal Charles Britton to talk to students about natural gas -- the emerging alternative energy source that some, including state energy officials, say could prove a financial boon and environmentally preferable to oil and coal.
"Economically, if our state is to compete with 49 other states and the rest of the world, we have to access lower-cost energy," said Malloy. (See above for more from Malloy's statements.) After statements, he took questions from Amity students.
Parts of the town of Woodbridge -- including Amity High School, Town Hall and other government buildings -- converted to natural gas this year after partnering with Southern Connecticut Gas. The conversion could save the town hundreds of thousands of dollars without costing taxpayers, officials previously told Patch.
Sheehy said 30 houses also decided to go on the grid, with 50 others eligible, and potentially more in the future.
"A number of Woodbridge residents have contacted me and said, 'What about extending this line further?' The Southern Connecticut Gas Company's taking that under advisement, and I'm sure they're going to extend the line … How much further, when, those are things we're going to have to talk about."

Andrew Gonnella, Maryland's lone senior on the offensive line, left Saturday's game against Georiga Tech in the fourth quarter with a serious leg injury -- so serious, in fact, that he needed to leave the field in an ambulance. The game was stopped for about 14 minutes while Gonnella was being tended to on the field. From Jeff Barker of the Baltimore Sun:
Early speculation on Twitter is that Gonnella suffered a compound fracture in his leg, meaning the bone broke through his skin. This has not been officially confirmed, though, and is likely pure speculation considering the injury was so gruesome that ESPN decided against showing the replay. Either way, it's clearly a serious injury, and one that may cost him the rest of the season.
Before Gonnella's injury, Maryland looked like they had a chance to upset Georgia Tech, scoring two touchdowns in the fourth quarter. The Yellow Jackets held on, though, winning 21-16. The Terrapins fall to 2-3 on the season, while Georgia Tech preserved their perfect record, winning their sixth straight.

My abiding interest is in nineteenth-century American literature and culture. In my first book I examined the uses to which Ralph Waldo Emerson was put by cultural critics during the century following his death. My next book was a group biography of American writers during the Civil War. Currently I am at work on a study that examines the way Native American contact with settlers shaped Darwinian theory as it was understood and practiced by U.S. scientists.

Fiendish Feds Filched my Follicles
by benmasel, Tue Jul 22, 2008 at 09:48:13 AM EDT
I flew United, Milwaukee>Ohare>Austin for the Netroots Nation bloggers convention last week.
Landing, 2 bags out of 66 passengers were not on the carousel, mine and agnostic's, another raucous Dailykos poster. We were told they'd been mistakenly sent to Scranton, would be delivered to out hotel around midnight. Actually arrived 4:00 the next afternoon, with 2 pieces of tape, one from TSA, and another from Homeland Security. Missing, my hairbrush, and Ms. Agnostic's scarf.
As I connect the dots, when our dossiers were run, an alert HSA drone noticed empty datafields for our DNA. No longer empty.Agnostic originated in Chicago, my bag was to have been transferred. A true accident wouldn't have plucked them both from different streams.

"The extension of Stoneridge Drive, long advocated by Dublin, Livermore, Alameda County and Caltrans puts Pleasanton back on the "good neighbor" list and likely to gain their needed support to press forward on widening Highway 84 over Pigeon Pass to connect commuters between I-580 and I-680. This, more than any other traffic plan, is expected to significantly decrease cut-through traffic on Pleasanton streets."
Misguided actions by several Councilors and Planning Commissioners will no doubt put the SR84 widening at risk. They don't have Pleasanton's best interest in mind.
on Feb 27, 2009 at 3:01 pm
Good editorial. I totally agree with it. Let us go ahead with something positive in these dark days for the country,state and Pleasanton.
on Feb 27, 2009 at 9:43 pm
Politicians get money. Politicians flip flop. They morph into becoming as our esteemed mayor has referred to "Haggerty's lapdog."
From Mayor Jen's blog in 2006 Web Link
"Second, Supervisor Haggerty endorsed Councilmember Brozosky. Am I worried? Not in the least. But, their relationship goes further - while I have gone to bat for the people of Pleasanton and fought the County on numerous issues - Staples Ranch, the Stoneridge Drive Extension, the ACE Train station, putting up a fence in Happy Valley, etc., Supervisor Haggerty, even though he was elected to represent the people of Pleasanton, has failed miserably to do so, and Councilmember Brozosky is apparently his new lapdog with regard to all of those issues."
Woof! Woof!
I can't wait until a mayor is elected again that represents the people of Pleasanton.

The Norman Transcript
Forward Kevin Durant scored a new career high 54 points in leading the Oklahoma City Thunder past the Golden State Warriors 127-118 Friday at the Chesapeake Energy Arena.
Durant took 39 points into the fourth quarter with his team leading by 10. He then put on a clinic of off balance 3-pointers and acrobatic mid range jumpers.
The Warriors tried several players on him and doubling him them moment he touched the ball. Nothing worked. Durant scored 16 points in the fourth quarter to put the game away.
It was Durant's sixth straight game of at least 30 points and third game of more than 40 in January.
Oklahoma City (30-10) Forward Serge Ibaka added 21 points and eight rebounds guard Reggie Jackson chipped in with 14 points and six assists.
The Warriors (25-16) got 37 points on 11-for-18 shooting from guard Seth Curry. Guard Klay Thompson posted 26 points. But only five came after halftime.
While both teams talked about playing defense coming into the contest, it was their offense that was on full display in the opening period. Durant and Curry went shot for shot in a high octane 12 minutes.
But it was the Thunder 's bench that allowed them to hold a 39-32 first quarter advantage. Guard Jeremy Lamb and center Steven Adams came in and made an immediate impact.
Fouls slowed the game down in the second quarter. Especially for the Thunder who racked up 16 in the first half.
But that didn't stop the scoring as Durant continued to light it up the Warriors from all over the court. He finished the first half with 29 points as Oklahoma City set a new season high for first half points with a 71-65 lead.
With Curry and Thompson both going cold in the third quarter, it was forward Marresse Speights that kept the Warriors competitive. He was able to get both Adams and Nick Collison in foul trouble with his physical style in the paint.
But it wasn't enough to offset the Durant onslaught that was to come in the final period.

"He Flirts with Other Women Because I've Lost My Looks"
Her Turn
"Ted used to dote on me," said Judy. "We had a great sex life. But now, after many years of marriage, we never make love anymore or do the fun stuff we used to enjoy together, like being a 'book club of two' or going to movies. All we do is fight about how he flirts with young women every chance he gets, even right in front of me.
"The flirting makes me furious, but I can't say I blame him. Whenever I look in the mirror, I think to myself, Who is that woman? I feel as young as ever, but I have so many wrinkles! Then there's my body. In high school I had a sexy figure and was the homecoming queen. But I never lost the weight I'd put on after my two sons were born -- and they're grown-ups now. I've gained even more weight lately. And I don't want to tell you what gravity has done to my D-cup breasts.
"I told Ted that I want to get a facelift and other cosmetic surgery, but he thinks it's an unnecessary expense. He says he doesn't care that I don't look the same as I did when we met. He also thinks I'm blowing his interest in other women way out of proportion -- that it's all in my head. Come on! You should have seen him holding court with the young women at a pool party recently. I won't say he actually starts anything, but he definitely doesn't discourage what goes on. And, by the way, he's still very attractive, with a full head of hair, six-pack abs, and great skin.
"Not only has Ted kept his looks, but he's a successful businessman, which is a guaranteed turn-on for women. He owns a chain of auto-body shops and women customers fawn all over him. He eats it up. I'd love to turn the tables to show him how it feels, but I'm just a part-time dental hygienist, which is not exactly glamorous. Young guys are more inclined to offer to help me cross the street than to flirt with me. Okay, I'm exaggerating, but not much.
"Whenever I challenge Ted about his flirting, he says he would never break up the family. To me, that says he's only sticking with me out of obligation. The other night we had a horrible fight. We were yelling at each other, and I was sobbing hysterically. Ted was so mad that he stormed out of the house. I don't know where he went or when he came back. I guess he slept on the couch.
"The only reason Ted agreed to see a counselor is that he hates how jealous I've become. I'll give him that one. I don't like who I am now any more than he does. In my opinion, plastic surgery would fix the situation. But he says I'm just being shallow, that I need to accept the way I'm aging and stop accusing him of straying when it's all just innocent. He also says our lack of a love life is normal at this point. Maybe so, but I miss the way we used to cuddle in bed. Now I just stay over on my side so he won't have to touch me. We can't go on like this. Maybe we'd both be better off if we just called it quits."

Diner Reviews
We have eaten at Stellar several
times, and it has been a real favorite for us. Wednesday was our 32nd anniversary, so we made reservations at Stellar for our special night. I ordered a $10 glass of wine, and the waiter came back to the table and said that they did not have that wine and suggested another. When we got the bill, there was a $14 charge for the wine. We ordered salads and they came AFTER our entrees were served. I had to ask where they were when the entrees came. No explanation, no apology. The food, usually outstanding, was mediocre at best. What a disappointment."

delicious! Impressed with the amount of food you get on the small plates."

I'm ways impressed every time I
dine at Stellar. There's always something new, the staff is always personable, and the food and wine pairings (no matter what you get) are impecable. The atmosphere is laid back while sophisticated, and the view is gorgeous no matter where you sit. Simply Stellar, everytime."
Dined on 7/20/2014
As always, the food, drinks &
service at Stellar were awesome. We had a group of girls & the small plates were perfect for all of us to share. This place never disappoints. They also have the most awesome filet for someone who wants more of a hearty meal."
Dined on 7/18/2014
Restaurant is on 2nd floor
overlooking Main Street. We went early - 7pm on a Thursday night. Nice bar. Comfortable seating. The bartender/waiter was helpful in selecting our dining choices. We went with a few small plates to share. Nice variety and well prepared. Inexpensive wine list as well."
Dined on 7/17/2014
We tried several dishes off the
menu plus the trout special. All were just so-so. But nothing makes up for the horrible service and long wait time on a sunday night when the restaurant was nearly empty. I had to ask 3 different times to have water glasses filled. No one ever came to check on us or ask if we needed anything throughout the long night. Stellar absolutely set the bar way too high for themselves when they chose their name. Hardly stellar, not close by a mile."
Dined on 6/29/2014
We spend the occasional weekend in
Greenville (visiting from Atlanta) and make sure to try one of the many wonderful restaurants that downtown Greenville has to offer. This past Saturday, it was Stellar! We loved the small plates; there are many options and each one we tried was fantastic! Everything we had was wonderful. In addition, our server, Matt, made the whole evening even more enjoyable. Matt was informative, knowledgeable and extremely pleasant. We would recommend Stellar to anyone wanting to enjoy a little of this and a little of that!"
Dined on 6/28/2014
We were only checked on four times
in the whole 2 hours we were there, and three of those times were me getting their attention."
Dined on 6/27/2014
We had dinner there with another
couple. We all had something different and everyone cleaned their plate. I had the duck tacos and they were delicious. The service was friendly and informative. We were the only people there."
Dined on 6/10/2014
We had a corner table, six of us,
and were very happy with the food, drinks, and service. It was a great place to get together, and not too noisy, so we could chat. The brie plate was delicious. Honestly don't remember the other dishes but it was all tasty and great. And we had a couple of cocktails, wine, and beer. The service was relaxed but attentive; we had everything we needed. Very happy with this experience and would definitely go there again."
Dined on 5/16/2014
This is one of our favorite spots.
Our first trip to stellar was when we got engaged. We have celebrated several special occassions since then. We most recently celebrated our 3rd anniversary. The food is always great,and the service excellent. They frequently do something special. For mother's day this year they gave out roses. "

Stellar chef, Jennifer Baron, is a
master of flavor and texture. Her Fried Tuna is out of this world. And the house Sangria is a must. We are in love! Ask for a table overlooking Main Street!"
Dined on 5/9/2014
Enjoyed great food and wine at
Stellar in downtown Greenville. Fantastic appetizers, entrees and salads. Excellent wine choices. Manager Matt chose a perfect wine for us!"
Dined on 4/27/2014
My expectations may have been too
high. This was our first time. We went up to the 2nd floor and there really wasn't much going on inside the place, and it was 7:45 PM on Friday. Tons of people on Main Street, but not inside this restaurant. We had a nice view of Main Street from our table. We were served a complimentary pour on the street level (before we walked upstairs). A pretty decent Petit Sirah, but it must have been served at about 75-80 degrees. Didn't fill me full of hope about the wine experience. We may go back, but only after we check out many other places we've not tried."
Dined on 4/25/2014
LOVED this restaurant!! Went for
the first time this week and couldn't be happier with our experience. We enjoyed almond crusted calamari as an appetizer and then goat cheese, asparagus, and mushroom gnocchi as our meals for dinner... all was to die for!! Gnocchi must have been homemade that day in the restaurant... it melted in your mouth. Definitely a place for foodies, not picky eaters, as the menu is quite refined. Our drinks were also fantastic and there was a great selection of wine. Great service from our waiter - we were able to enjoy a nice, slow meal while also being attended to when needed. We will definitely be back and would recommend this to anyone for a great date night or special occasion! "

Arrived at 7:45 for 8:00
reservation, couldn't be seated. No problem I understand we were early. Arrive back at 8:00. 10 minute wait at door where no one even bothered to look at us. Seated. Another 10 minutes to get our drink order. Another 15 minutes to be told they were out of mix-ins for cocktails. 10 more minutes to get sodas. 30 more minutes later we order appetizer. Arrives 20 minutes later. Order dinner after another 45 minutes. Arrives 30 minutes later. Did I mention when our server came back to us to check how things were? Oh right, he didn't, we got a drink refill from the hostess. Waiting happens, so acknowledge it and then do better in another area. At least check on your guests! Really!"
Dined on 2/15/2014
Food was a huge disappointment.
I'd been there for appetizers so was expecting some consistency but the entrees on a recent visit were expensive,small and tasteless. Won't be going back."
Dined on 2/15/2014
Decided to have late Valentine's
night out on Saturday, and wanted to try something new. Despite having reservations, we were seated in what can only be described as the foyer, right inside the entrance and next to hostess station, and next to a very loud group of 6. Asked for better seating but was told none was available. So much for reservations. Failed to cook my wife's steak well done even after being told to butterfly it, which they did not. Barely better after sending it back, wife ate the edges, center was still very pink. Ordered creme brulee, and had to ask for spoons. Waiter/bartender was very good and made very nice wine suggestions. Probably wouldn't go back."
Dined on 2/15/2014
We had a good time I guess.
Service was slow. And the food cost way much for the amount you receive."
Dined on 2/15/2014
I think Stella's
management/ownership may have changed over the past few years at some point. The first time my wife and I went we fell in love with the ambiance. The ceiling and fiber optic lights like stars makes it a really cool for a couple. The service is good and the wine list pretty stellar (har). The food in the past couple visits has been pretty good, almost superb but I think it depends on what you order. For Valentine's Day the music was too loud and it was too bright but maybe someone said something because at some point both lowered and it was much more comfortable. Anyway, it happens to be one our favorite places and we'll always enjoy the overall package."
Dined on 2/14/2014
I was fortunate to book a 9:15
Valentine's Day dinner at Stellar. We arrived just after 9 and were told it might be about a 15 minute wait, so we sat at the bar and enjoyed two recommendations from their exhaustive win list. Good thing the wine was terrific, because we weren't seated until more than an hour after our reservation time! A little miffed, we settled in for what turned out to be a fabulous meal, expertly prepared and served with tremendous attention to my wife's special dietary needs. Portions were modest -- apparently Stellar's "small plate" approach carries over to their entrees -- but the prices were reasonable and the food was delicious. We'll be back . . . just not on the busiest dining out night of the year."
Dined on 2/14/2014
Stellar used to be my favorite
tapas place in downtown Greenville. Friday night I ate there for the first time in over a year and I was very disappointed. While I know that tapas are small portions, this was ridiculous. The calamari used to be the best item on the menu. Not so anymore. There were like 6 pieces on the plate. The hummus had plenty of pita bread but not enough hummus. The wine selection is great, but don't go for the food. Our server was awesome!"
Dined on 2/14/2014
I've spent more time talking about
my experience in this restaurant in the last few days than I'd like to admit. It was a poor experience. We went on Valentine's Day and the restaurant was clearly not prepared for the busy night. Our server took about 10 minutes to greet us. They were out of 3 of the different by-the-glass wines that I asked for throughout the night. The server was absent throughout a large portion of the meal, obviously overwhelmed. The food was good. Hot food hot, cold food cold. Good portion sizes. Overall very satisfied with the meal in itself. The service and management was clearly lacking and that really affected our experience. I really liked this place for the ambiance and wine list but I probably will not be back."
Dined on 2/14/2014
Service was a little slow - but
not for lack of effort. They seemed a little understaffed, possibly because of the weather? Two servers for 15 tables was stretching them a little thin. But the folks were very friendly and did their level best. Food was outstanding!!! Atmosphere was great. We were seated exactly on time for our reservation, which was amazing given how busy they were."
Dined on 2/14/2014
The restaurant is crammed into a
second floor space on Main Street. Because our table was close to the door and the hostess table, we felt we were part of the staff. Maybe our reservation through Open Table is only for the worst tables. The server came around with the drink lists, and then it was so long before we saw him again, we had to review the lists again to recall what we wanted. The salad was good, but I forget what it was called. The tenderloin wrapped in bacon was excellent. I have had only one other steak in this area that was better. The desserts, cheesecake s'more and Apple/Maple creme brulee, were disappointing. It was disappointing to see that a restaurant in this price range had multiple TVs visible from every table."
Dined on 2/14/2014
This restaurant has really great
staff. They are attentive without being overbearing. The food was amazing except for the dessert. We had the cheesecake that was a special for Valentine's Day. It tasted very very salty (just a little too much for my taste). However, I know that some people like their cheesecake this way. Overall, great restaurant and definitely returning, especially to try the Brunch! Also, my wife got a beautiful rose at the end of the night."
Dined on 2/14/2014
Overall, food was very good, with
2 exceptions. The "cheese fondue" was bechamel sauce - 3 words: Gruyere, Kiersch, & nutmeg! Stick to The Melting Pot for this dish. The accoutrements were very good, fresh & great variety. Miss #2 was Valentines special S'mores Chocolate Cheesecake. The marshmallow top was wonderful as were the chocolate-covered cherries. Graham cracker crust was perfectly sweet & buttery. But the filling was horrible! To say perhaps the chef forgot the sugar is a huge understatement. I wasn't expecting a sugar-laden, overly-sweet dessert, but this was very sour - like soured milk. Otherwise, food was fantastic. Great wine list. Service was very slow. Sit in the front 1/2 of the place - better vibe. Back seems too casual."
Dined on 2/14/2014
I found the menu limited but good
appetizers. We had a wonderful waiter and he was great. We had to send our steak back, not cooked correctly, and he was very nice. Enjoyed the wine selection. I would not choose this restaurant often because of the lack of main menu items I found appealing."

Food was very good. Wouldn't go so
far as to say excellent but very good. We both got the filet mignon which was tender and cooked as ordered. Meat was tasty but the horse radish sauce made it much better. We also had the regular sized chocolate fondue for desert. Portion was pretty small (~2 melted dark chocolate bars) and some fruit and bread for dipping (mostly grapes). Luckily, my daughter and I were not very hungry so the size of the meal was fine for us. The one gripe I have is that we made it a point to tell our waitress that my daughter was very allergic to any type of tree nuts. This was actually stated on the menu to do this. Well, the bread that came with the chocolate fondue had walnuts in it. Glad we had benedry!"

The restaurant is pretty
consistent over the times that I have eaten there. Wonderful wine specials, decent selection of cheeses on the cheese plate ( though the cheese portions are a bit small if sharing with parties larger than 2). Overall a nice night."

The staff is very welcoming,
knowledgeable about the food and wine and are always there right when you need them. We ate at our own pace, enjoyed our friends company and of course the food and wine. Will definitely return."

I love to bring my wife to Stellar
for date nights. We often have dessert and wine and enjoy the atmosphere. Ownership is great and we will surely be back!"

Stellar has a great feel and look.
The food was delish and the wine we were suggested fit our tastes perfectly. I am definitely going back."

One of my favorite places to eat
and take new friends! Never disappointed! The service is always 5 stars and the servers know their wines! Don't miss this great little hot spot!"

Really enjoyed being able to try a
few different plates and share amongst the three of us. Service was great as well. Hard to find both good food and service sometimes."

I brought my girlfriend and our
son, less than two years old, there last night, we asked for non-alcoholic drinks and we were told a list of the drinks and the bartender didn't get offended we didn't want alcohol like other places I've been to. The food was amazing. The ceiling looked like I was looking at the night sky. I proposed to my girlfriend and no one paid attention to my son and I on our knees asking. It is one of the hidden gems of downtown Greenville. And the view from the window was breath taking."

Norwegian paramedic shadows Dudley team
4:47pm Friday 28th December 2012 in Local
A PARAMEDIC from Norway recently spent a shift on a borough ambulance to find out about saving lives across the pond.
Hans Sigvart Hansen joined Dudley Advanced Paramedic, Lee Farley for a 10 hour shift in his rapid response car.
Hans, who was visiting the UK for a third time, works for Vinjes Ambulance Service based in the quiet mountainous region of Hommelvik, Sor-Trondelag, where the nearest hospital is two hours away.
Lee said: "It was really interesting to find out about the differences between the two services. It was clear that the main difference was the shift work; in Norway they do 24 hour shifts and every few weeks of their rota they start on Friday and finish on Monday!
"Hans said they're trained to use a lot more drugs than our paramedics as they are so remote and miles away from the nearest hospital. With mountains in the area they cover, they're obviously equipped with snow mobiles and six wheeled ambulances which contain three day survival packs for prolonged rescues and in case adverse weather hampers their journey."

Select Route:
Chrysler Crack is a classic off-width romp located high over the Sandstone Quarry with a beautiful splitter crack in a dihedral and two featureless faces. In the first half of the climb you can choose to lieback the crack or employ off-width jamming and in the second half the crack is wide enough to chimney. Walk off left.
Approach from Sandstone Quarry as per Sandy Corridor description. Hike the Corridor a couple hundred yards until you're about 30 yards from the end of the canyon. You'll see a (mostly dead) left-leaning pine tree. Go right here to a robbers den that pinches off into a narrow slot. Break right and up to ledges, past occasional easy fifth-class moves for about 150 feet until you arrive at the base of the climb.
There is no fixed protection on this route. Bring armloads of big cams and big bros - Camalot C4 #5 and Big Bro #3 didn't cut the mustard.

OAK HILL (WVVA) -- A new sewage project could be forcing residents to dig a little deeper into their pockets to pay their water bill.
The $14.5 million project is underway in Oak Hill. It's said to decrease pollution from an overflow in storm water run off.
This will cause a 6% increase in sewer rates for residents.
City Manager, Bill Hannabass, says right now sewer rates are about $36 monthly for residents, which is below the West Virginia state average.
"This rate increase in real dollars to the average person is going to amount to about two dollars," says Hannabass. "Most people's sewer bills fluctuate depending on how they're using water that particular month to the point where you're not going to notice. It's just going to look like your normal fluctuation."
This increase would take Oak Hill's rates to exactly average of the rates statewide. Hannabass says this would be one of three hikes needed to fund the sewage project.

(RNN) - When most people talk about Title IX, it's the athletic opportunities afforded women that gets the most attention. However, the law also prohibits gender discrimination in any educational institution funded by the federal government.
The law opened up opportunities for women in science technology, engineering and math (or STEM) jobs, something former astronaut and first woman of color in space Mae Jemison learned firsthand.
Jemison began pursuing a career in science at a young age. She told the Senate Tuesday she was the first and only girl to take a drafting class at her high school. She was met often with skepticism, but at 16 years old, attended Stanford to pursue a degree in engineering.
"Professors outside the sciences seemed far more welcoming to me and this enabled me to emotionally recharge and surmount the challenges posed by the poor reception I received from my professors in STEM courses - hurdles the male students did not encounter," she said. "I regret to say that I may have earned that engineering degree in spite of, rather than because of, some of my professors."
Since the passage of Title IX, schools have been barred from making girls take a class considered to be more feminine, such as home economics, over one considered more masculine, like auto mechanics. It allows for gender-segregated classes only in very specific circumstances, such as while learning about puberty.
However, work still needs to be done.
According to a recent study from the Girl Scout Research Institution, 57 percent of girls between 14 and 17 years old believe they would have to work harder than men to be taken seriously in STEM careers.
A 2010 study backed up the girls' perceptions. It found that female post-doctoral candidates had to publish as many as 20 more papers than their male counterparts to be considered good in their field.
In the 2003-2004 academic year, more than three-quarters of the students enrolled in computer sciences, engineering and technology programs were men, according to government data.

International Theatre Programs
We are global citizens and theatre artists of the world. In your career you will work with artists from abroad, and you will travel to other countries to share your work. In order to prepare you for this eventuality we have created partnerships with international theatre programs so that you can expand your theatre knowledge and training, and receive academic credit while experiencing a different culture and a new perspective on the world.
The department offers two different types of international programming for you to choose from:
- Short Term Immersion Courses (J-Term and Summer)
- Semester-long Study Abroad programs (fall or spring semester)
1. Short Term Immersion Programs (J-Term and Summer)
These are typically one to two week programs that concentrate on training in a specific theatre skill at a specialist international theatre program. Currently we offer a one-week J-Term immersion course in Physical Theatre (Lecoq Technique) run by the London International School of Performing Arts (see below).
International Immersion Programs are open to every student in the department.
2. Semester-long Study Abroad programs (fall or spring semester)
A Semester Abroad program gives you the opportunity to study a full semester of theatre in-depth, really absorb a different culture, and allows ample time for travel.
Study Abroad programs are designed to be within your financial reach. You continue to pay tuition to Columbia (the host institution waives its tuition and fees); therefore the total cost – excluding airfare – is comparable to the costs incurred by a full-time Columbia student living on campus.
Study Abroad is geared for students who are more advanced in their course work (third year students, Juniors)
Currently we offer Study Abroad programs with the following theatre programs:
Rose Bruford College of Theatre and Performance, London
Lamorbey Park Campus, Burnt Oak Lane, Sidcup, Kent. DA15 9DF. UK
t +44(0)20 8308 2600 f +44(0)20 8308 0542 ddi +44(0)20 8308 2668 mobile 07813 322 143
University of East London
Dublin Institute of Technology, Ireland
Steps to Studying Abroad
To discuss the program contact Chris Greiner firstname.lastname@example.com in the International Office to fill out the required paperwork.
- Download information on the International program that interests you.
- Contact John Green email@example.com or Brian Shaw firstname.lastname@example.com
Columbia College Chicago Theatre students travel to the London International School of Performing Arts (LISPA) each January for a week of study and performances. Students learn the physical theatre techniques of the French teacher and theater artist Jacques LeCoq, and attend nightly performances at the annual London International Festival of Mime.
The course focuses on movement improvisation, movement analysis and work with masks, three cornerstones of LeCoq's training. Students learn techniques for training the body, exploring improvisations as a basis for choreography. There is also a strong emphasis on presence, energy and transformation, which come from the Japanese influence of Butoh dance.
Student Comments from the January 2011 London Visit
"Thank you so much for this opportunity and an amazing trip. I got way more out of this trip then I ever could have imagined and am so lucky to have been able to join. Thank you."
- Addison Duffy
"Thank you for giving me this opportunity! I have learned so much on this trip. It has helped me gain insight on other cultures and things I've never dreamed of seeing. I cannot wait to apply everything I've learned to my acting. Thanks again."
- Serina Breezer
"Thank you for opening my eyes"

Dear Potential Felon,
Brad and Monica Culpepper invite you to participate in a fun, interactive fundraiser benefitting Wheelchairs 4 Kids, a 501 (c) (3) charity dedicated to improving the lives of children with physical disabilities by providing wheelchairs, ramps, and other assistive devices. Brad and Monica have graciously agreed to serve as the honorary chairpersons of our Jail and Bail Fundraiser to be held on April 27th at the Taverna Opa in Channelside from 1 to 5 PM. We are currently in the process of recruiting high profile Tampa Bay executives and personalities to participate in the event. Please accept this invitation from Brad and Monica to play a part in the benefit as one of our VIP "felons". If you are not able to attend, we would appreciate it if you would suggest an alternate person to "do your time". Please RSVP at your earliest convenience to 727-946-0963.
Brad Culpepper was a starting defensive tackle for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 1994 to 1999, the Dungy years. He was a media favorite with a great sense of humor and still often appears on local sports shows to share his expertise. He is also recognized as one of Tampa Bay's preeminent attorneys along with his partner, Brett Kurland. You may have seen them on the popular Culpepper Kurland commercials. Monica is Brad's wife of 20 years and is a graduate of The University of Florida. She has a degree in Physical Therapy and is a contestant on the current season of Survivor. You can learn more about Monica on her Survivor Fan page.
The Jail and Bail will consist of us "arresting" prominent citizens in the Tampa Bay area for various charges such as insider trading (retired NFL players using connections to get ahead in Fantasy Football) to impersonating an actor (local business owners/lawyers appearing in commercials). The sillier the crime, the better. Of course, your charges and bail are negotiable!
As a jailbird, you will receive several copies of your "Wanted" poster as well as have a page on our website with your mug shot and charges. You may send your friends to the webpage, where they can make a secure, online donation toward your bail in advance. On April 27th, you will be picked up by the "police" and brought to the Taverna Opa in Channelside where you will appear before "Judge" Culpepper to answer to your charges. Monica Culpepper will be our courtroom correspondent. Bail will be set and you will be locked up in our "jail" wearing our "designer" prison garb for one hour. During that time, you may raise your bail by calling on friends and colleagues. I understand that the prison guards are notorious for sneaking in food and beverages! Upon meeting your bail, you will be released with great fanfare complete with flying napkins and Greek dancing! The event will be filmed for a web telecast on UNation.
Each jailbird will be furnished with an information packet which will include pledge sheets, hints and their "Wanted" posters. They will also receive a link to their own webpage that they can share with their friends.
Many children in the United States faced with living with physical disabilities are in wheelchairs that are too small, in disrepair, or do not fit the needs of the child. In addition, families are faced with trying to care for their special needs children in homes that have not been modified to meet their specific circumstances. Children outgrow their wheelchairs before government or insurance programs will allow for a replacement. Not only is it unsafe for a child to be in a chair that is inadequate for their needs, but it can impact their health in numerous ways including scoliosis, respiratory problems and pressure sores. Wheelchairs 4 Kids is working hard to address this much neglected need.
You can learn more about our organization by visiting our website at www.wheelchairs4kids.org. We also hope that you will become a fan of ourfacebook page.
Thank you so much for your consideration. We do hope that you will consider our mission worthy of your support and our kids' needs deserving of your participation. If you have any questions, suggestions or comments, please don't hesitate to contact us at 727-946-0963. Please let us know of any other potential felons to contact! Thanks and have a wonderful day!
Sincerely,Madeline Robinson Executive Director Wheelchairs 4 Kids 1406 Stonehaven Way Tarpon Springs, FL 34689 (727) 946-0963 www.Wheelchairs4Kids.org firstname.lastname@example.com

Chester Alan Arthur
Oct. 5, 1830
Franklin County
Vermont, USA
Nov. 18, 1886
New York
New York County (Manhattan)
New York, USA
21st United States President. He was born in Fairfield, Vermont the fifth of eight children to a abolitionist Baptist minister. He was tutored at home until age nine then enrolled at a primary school in then Union Village, now Greenwich, New York. He graduated from Union College then taught school, studied law, admitted to the bar, and while practicing law in New York City met
Ellen Herndon
. After a brief courtship, they were married the day before the Civil War began and he spent the duration as the appointed Quartermaster General of the State of New York. He became a power broker in the Republic Party which led to a failed Presidential nomination at the 1880 Republican Convention but he reluctantly accepted the nomination of Vice President under President Garfield. Ellen passed away prior to his becoming Vice President leaving Arthur in deep mourning which sorrowed him the rest of his life. With almost a blink of the eye, he ascended to the Presidency after the assassination of Garfield. His first order of business was to remove and discard twenty-four wagon loads of White House furnishings. Public outrage led to declaring the White House a National Museum thus safeguarding its possessions for all times. The Arthur term was literally endured as a four year period of mourning. The president placed a portrait of his deceased wife in the hallway and arranged for fresh flowers to be put under her portrait each morning. Social functions were reduced to a minimum. His administration produced little of substance. He was a champion of civil service reform and tried to reduce tariffs rates to avoid annual surpluses of revenue but the Congress raised more rates then he trimmed. He denied reports of ill health but knew he was suffering from a fatal kidney disease during the second year of tenure. He kept himself in the running for a second term but was not renominated. Returning to New York, he tried to resume the practice of law but ill health prevented work as well as indulging in his favorite passion of simple fishing. He became frail and was unable to leave his bed. Death came at his New York City mansion in the same room where his wife Ellen passed away six years before. He was taken home to Albany by train and with President Grover Cleveland in attendance, a state funeral was conducted with interment beside his wife and son in the family plot at the Rural Cemetery in Albany. A bronze ornate sarcophagus was erected on the grave years later but the President was not placed inside but remained buried underneath. His physical legacy matches the accomplishments of his term in office and little remains today: The President Arthur State Historic Site in Fairfield, Vermont has a granite monument heralding a disputed site supposedly his birthplace and nearby is a facsimile, embellished house constructed to represent the second family home which was constructed by his father's Baptist Congregation to replace the original which was a hastily constructed primitive cabin. Albany Rural Cemetery is a beautiful historic cemetery in upstate New York. The grave of President Arthur is located on cemetery property purchased by his father, the Reverend William Arthur. The memorial was designed by Ephriam Keyser with friends contributing into a fund for its construction as well as a bronze statue erected in New York City's Madison Square Park not far from the Chester Arthur House. In residence when Garfield was assassinated, he then took the oath of office on the front steps. This 5-story brownstone row house is currently owned by a slum landlord and is generally deteriorated and rundown.
