Palisades Parkway Police say a 49-year-old man was rescued after he fell down a cliff in Alpine, New Jersey Sunday evening.
Julio Beltran, of Fairview, NJ, had intentionally walked around the bridge wall when he then slipped and fell from the Greenbrook Falls overpass around 6:30 p.m., according to police.
Officers arrived to Henry Hudson Drive, south of the Alpine Boat Basin and saw Beltran and another man, 36-year-old Juan Martinez of Cliffside Park, NJ. Martinez had climbed down to attempt to help Beltran, according to police.
Closter EMS and Rescue and the East Bergen Rappel Team were able to reach Beltran shortly and he was taken by an Air Medevac to Hackensack University Medical Center, where he suffered from multiple injuries.
Rescuers also saved Martinez who was not injured and walked away from the scene.
One firefighter from the Fort Lee FD received minor injuries during the rescue after he fell several feet before his rope line captured him.

I learned yesterday afternoon, with the temperature hovering somewhere in the 30's, that a good ribeye steak tastes just as good on a cold January evening as it tastes on a blistery hot June afternoon. I want you all to think about that when you decide that you're about ready to wrap up and cover up the ol' family grill and put it away for the winter.
Nu-uh!! Instead, go dig out your warm Saints starter jacket and head on out to the patio with your Ove-Glove, your set of barbecue tools, a well-pre-seasoned and marinated ribeye, and a cold brewskie (yep, contrary to public opinion guys who barbecue in winter can also imbibe in a cold brewskie in winter while the meat is flaring up)!
Just keep one undisputable fact in mind, though. . .because the outside temp in January will sometimes have a great effect on chilling down the old barbie, you'll need to plan to cook hotter in winter than you would in, say, June or July. You should also know that to get the meat cooking right away you'll want to allow it to come to room temp before you toss it atop the grate.
Technique-wise, put the steaks on and immediately close down the lid (for you guys with one of those old rusty charcoal dinosaurs, you're gonna need either some heavy duty aluminum foil to make a makeshift cover or. . .you can use one of those disposable aluminum baking pans you buy at the discount store--they come in all sizes-- to retain the heat radiating from the briquettes). Just the simple use of a "barbecue cover" can make the difference between a succulent, juicy, steakhouse-prepared steak and a shriveled, dried out, chewy cut of beef. BBQ grill covers are mandated in winterime outdoor cooking, y'all!
But wait! I keep saying "steak!" What about wintertime grilling of other stuff? Like chicken--yep, same procedure. Like pork chops--yep, same procedure. Like veggies--yep, same procedure. Like whatever you like--yep, same procedure. All I'm saying is that the grill you have, whether it be gas or charcoal, can (and should) be a proficient and popular piece of cooking gear regardless of the time of year. All you gotta do is make a few--a scant few at that!--adjustments to counteract the effects of Old Man Winter before you put on your chef's toque.
Of course, given the history of cold weather in wintertime in New Orleans and all across Southeast Louisiana, this bit of culinary instruction (because winter in New Orleans and all across Southeast Louisiana) might be moot for most of the days between December 15, say, and late February. I mean, oft times we natives here see no difference in the climate between winter and summer. But that's good! We like it that way! For the most part we here in the Deep South usually have all four seasons. . .but we have 'em all in the same week!
So right now, with this said and with the temperature holding the mercury in my back porch thermometer seemingly frozen at right around 28 degrees, my first thought is to oil and wrap some white potatoes in a sheet of foil, haul out one of those on-sale ribeyes or filets or porterhouses you splurged on a month or so ago, and get outside. . .and play with your BBQ grill. As soon as I finish this script that's where I'm going and what I'm going to do!
Dangit! I can smell the aromas already!

Spring Rabbit
Binds when used
Use: Teaches you how to summon this companion.
Grooms face and scratches ear and mates with other Spring Rabbits to produce baby bunnies.
» Video
Pit-pattering footsteps; vocalizations (on-click)
Mates with other Spring Rabbits, producing eggs (offspring).
This pet's drop rate from a [Brightly Colored Egg] is estimated at about 1 in 100, although it may be lower. The 100 [Noblegarden Chocolate] required to purchase the pet may be obtained by looting Brightly Colored Eggs found during the event throughout all level 5 starter towns. This pet's special animation enables it to fall in love with any nearby Spring Rabbit it sees. The two will prance around, shooting out small eggs, which spawn patches of flowers and baby bunnies. Additionally, this pet will leap great distances to the player's feet.
Credit for the "Breanni Says" below goes to Ravedruid at WoWhead.
I was really hoping this would be the purple bunny with blue spots like Lindsay has :(
I got my spring rabbit while I was hunting for the eggs. When I was looking through my bags I saw tis odd looking icon and paned over it and it says "Click to learn and summon this companion. I was so thrilled because these things never ussaly get things like this LOL. Happy Hunting :D
Also, this little guy will run off a ways, or get left behind while you're mounted, and then take an enormous LEAP to get back right on top of you! Very cute.
With this pet x2, Spring is most definitely in the air.
Edit: This pet now also mates with the Turkey and makes baby bunnies which hatch from eggs... I think in a wierd way that makes sence.

Plumstead headmistress charged with assault on 10-year-old pupil
Updated 11:07am Wednesday 30th January 2013 in News By Mark Chandler, deputy news editor
A PLUMSTEAD headmistress at an independent Christian primary school has been charged with assaulting a 10-year-old pupil.
Rally Ikiebe, aged 49, of Wrottesley Road, was charged yesterday (January 29) with an offence of actual bodily harm alleged to have taken place on January 17 last year.
Ikiebe runs and set up the Chrysolyte Independent Christian School in Southwark.
The school's website describes its mission statement as providing a service for parents "who wish their child to be educated not only academically but also spiritually according to God's word".
She will appear on bail at Camberwell Green Magistrates' Court on February 12.

An elderly Lehigh Acres man heard all the warning signs, and he actually stopped scammers from getting his personal information. As soon as he realized what was happening, he called us to warn others.
Carl Appelberg said it all started with a caller claiming to be from the government in Washington, D.C.
"We're calling from the health welfare-health department. We are issuing some new tickets that are going to be sent out--new cards," Appelberg said the caller told him.
Appelberg said he was told he would get discounts on medical-related purchases and money would be automatically sent to his bank account, but the caller wanted his bank account number. Appelberg said that's when he started asking questions.
"I said, 'What building are you in?' They said, 'We're in the health department that's enough. We don't have time for all of that,'" Appelberg said.
Then, Appelberg told them, "I'm not going to give you my checking account because all your going to do is cash money on it and not pay me on it…. Then, after that, he hung up."
The phone number on Appelberg's caller ID was blocked with a bunch of zeros. Stacey Payne with the Lee County Sheriff's Office said that's a sign it's the work of a scammer.
Payne said the fraud line has already received a handful of calls about this scam and all of the victims locally are seniors and that these kinds of scams come in cycles.
"This time if the year, when we start looking at changes taking place in Medicare and taxes going on, all the different things dealing with the government... we start seeing this scam come up," Payne said.
Payne also added that no federal entity will call you asking for that kind of information.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services states on its website that you should not give your information out over the Internet, or to anyone who comes to your home or calls you uninvited. Give personal information only to doctors or other Medicare approved providers.

Improved home values and looser credit guidelines widen the pool of potential borrowers
CHARLOTTE, N.C., June 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The financial health of prospective borrowers dipped slightly in the first quarter, according to LendingTree's Borrower Health Report, released today. The minor decrease in the Borrower Health Score suggests that there is now a wider pool of mortgage seekers as home prices improve and credit guidelines ease. The report analyzes the financial health of mortgage-seekers and assigns a Borrower Health Score used in the ranking of each state.
During the first quarter, the average loan-to-value [LTV] ratio of potential borrowers increased slightly from 88.6% to 88.75%. Because LTVs are a key qualifying factor, the increase in LTVs likely resulted in a decline of the Borrower Health Score, which fell 4.5 points to 77.7 in the first quarter. Additionally, the average credit score of prospective borrowers remained flat at 635.
Although borrowers may not be in top financial condition in all markets, the Borrower Health Score is 1.3 points above where it was just a year earlier. This year-over-year improvement implies that mortgage-seekers are in relatively good health and that there is broader trend of improving borrower qualification levels. A few areas have seen a marked improvement, suggesting a more competitive buyer's market.
"As home prices improve and lenders loosen restrictive lending guidelines, there is a wider pool of borrowers that are able to qualify for a loan," said Doug Lebda, founder and CEO of LendingTree. "Potential borrowers with a solid financial portfolio who may not have qualified for a mortgage two years ago may find it easier to qualify today. And with rates still historically low, we could see an active home-buying season."
Washington D.C., New Jersey, California, Hawaii and Massachusetts continue to lead the nation with the healthiest prospective borrowers, all with scores above 90. The average LTV ratios and credit scores for the top five states are below.

Alabama - About 70 people braved the frigid weather Saturday afternoon to rally in a Birmingham park against Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley's adamant refusal to expand Medicaid in the state. During the demonstration at Kelly Ingram Park, several speakers - progressive activists, aspiring politicians and concerned Alabamians - railed against the governor's decisions.
CWA devised a simple plan for which they were uniquely suited: drag TPP out of the shadows and into the light - one city at a time - using a medium they understand intimately: Daily Newspapers!
Two CWA members - Dave Felice in Denver, CO and Madelyn Elder in Portland, OR have started the ball rolling. We just need to keep up the momentum leading up to a big day of petition deliveries.
Step 1 is to send an Op-Ed to your Daily Newspaper.
Congress has a solution for creating jobs and job training programs but the newspapers never talk about that. Government isn't broken and government can create jobs. Make sure that people in your community know that this is possible.
If your Representative is not currently a cosponsor of HR 1000 they may not completely understand how important full employment is to your community; click on your state at the bottom of this page to see all the cosponsors in your state. Nothing sends a stronger message to a Congressional member than a personal visit to a district office by a voter with a written request. Phone calls and emails are incredibly important but nothing gets attention like a personal visit. Our Educate Congress page has information and a sample letter. Print the letter, sign it, deliver it.

The 2012 Final Four schedule was set on Sunday afternoon following the conclusion of the Elite Eight portion of the NCAA Tournament bracket. There isn't a lot of chalk involved, either, as only the overall top seed was able to advance all the way to the semifinals of the March Madness bracket.
The Final Four games will take place in New Orleans on Saturday evening, starting at the peculiar time of 6:09 p.m., with a "Battle for the Bluegrass" postseason rematch starting off the festivities. The second game doesn't have a catchy nickname, but should represent good basketball as well when it tips off at 8:49 if the first game ends on time.
The Kentucky Wildcats will once again meet their intrastate rivals when the top-seeded team plays Rick Pitino and the Louisville Cardinals for the second time this season. John Calipari's Wildcats are current riding a three-game winning streak over the Cardinals, increasing their series lead to 29-14 since the two teams played each other first way back in 1913. The two teams are tied at two games apiece in the NCAA Tournament with their last meeting coming in 1984's Sweet 16.
The nightcap will feature a couple of other storied programs with a bit of history as the Ohio St. Buckeyes face the Kansas Jayhawks for the right to play for the National Championship. The Jayhawks picked up a 78-67 victory over the Buckeyes in December, but Saturday's game will likely be played a bit differently considering Buckeyes' star Jared Sullinger missed their earlier meeting due to injury.

"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."

Even More Food For Thought
"Men by their constitutions are naturally divided into two parties: 1. Those who fear and distrust the people, and wish to draw all powers from them into the hands of the higher classes. 2. Those who identify themselves with the people, have confidence in them, cherish and consider them as the most honest and safe, although not the most wise depositary of the public interests."

III. Withdrawal of Recognition
A. Termination
Upon termination of recognition, all chapter operations must cease. All campus privileges and college permission for the chapter to function are revoked. Upon withdrawal of recognition, the chapter shall be ineligible to reapply for recognition for five years unless this requirement is waived by the Vice President for Student Affairs.
Current individual members registered at the College could face campus disciplinary action for failure to comply with termination of recognition.
Should recognition be restored after Termination of Recognition, the chapter will initially be granted Provisional Recognition for one year.
B. Allegations of Violations
Any allegations regarding violation of these guidelines shall be presented to the Greek Liaison, who will request a hearing by the IGA judicial board. The IGA judicial board shall designate appropriate sanctions for organizations found responsible for violating the guidelines. If a member on the IGA judicial board is also a member of the organization having allegations against it, that member will be replaced by a member of the IGA executive board.
Allegations of hazing will be referred to the Director of Judicial Affairs for prosecution under the Code of Student Rights, Freedoms and Responsibilities and to University Police for investigation of violation of New York State laws.
C. Suspension
Suspension is imposed for a set period of time during which all activities of the chapter are suspended and chapter privileges are revoked. This action may be taken immediately following allegations of hazing or pending investigations of incidents involving physical injury, pending an investigation.
Failure to comply with a suspension order may result in disciplinary action against individual members who are registered students.
If recognition is restored after Suspension, the chapter will be given Provisional Recognition for one year.
D. Appeals
College decisions regarding probationary recognition, denial of full recognition and suspension/termination of recognition may be appealed.
All appeals of college imposed sanctions must be in writing and received by the Dean of Students within five (5) business days of notification of probationary recognition, denial of full recognition or suspension/termination.
Sanctions imposed as a result of action by campus Greek governing bodies, national or the College Judicial System must be appealed through the sanctioning organization's appeals process, if any.

More than 650 personnel focused on holding fire lines on Friday, after containing 30% of the fire Thursday night. They said they're on alert for erratic fire behavior as thunderstorms are expected to roll in from the southwest. Residents are able to return home by permit between 9 a.m. and noon., but Highway 12 remains closed, and evacuations are in still place from Sleeman Gulch to Graves Creek Road.

At Home on the Rock assigned me the letter S: what are Mama Squirrel's ten favourite things starting with S?
Well, not shovelling snow, that's for sure.
1. Secondhand sales.
2. Snoopy--I'm very fond of old Peanuts cartoons.
The sidebar's in the way there--if you want to see the last panel, you'll have to click on the comic strip.
3. Stump the Bookseller. I won a free "stumper" for helping solve other peoples' lost book questions; if you want to help me out, it's #B661 on the New Stumpers page. (Doesn't anyone out there remember Pat and Eunice?)
4. Spinach-stuffed shells.
5. Stories.
6. Sitting on the sand in the sunshine at the seashore in the summer.
8. School supplies in September
9. Sherlock Holmes--the series with Jeremy Brett.
10. Squirrels! (But not in the house, except for Dewey.)
If any you want to amuse yourselves with this adventure--I'm abitrarily assigning you the letter A. Ponytails? Apprentice?

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) – A number of university residence halls will remain open following the discovery of mold.
According to the University of Louisville, all 270 Miller Hall residents have moved to other housing complexes.
Miller Hall closed on October 14 so crews could thoroughly clean the building.
A few mold samples were discovered in Threlkeld, Wellness and West Halls in addition to Miller Hall, but the school said the mold can be treated without relocating residents.
Rooms with visible mold will be cleaned over the next few days by specifically trained crews.
Miller Hall is expected to remain closed for the remainder of the semester.

It's an empty field right now, but historic War Memorial Stadium will feature some of the finest baseball talent in the Southwest in just a few months.
The newly formed American West Baseball League -- which is the equivalent to Single A to Double A minor league competition -- features a brand new team from Nogales, the Nogales Desert Ghosts.
"Nogales has always been known for baseball from since I can remember," says Nogales Mayor Arturo Garino.
"We have a half million people on both sides of the border," Garino says. "I mean the market is there for baseball."
Before it was official, several youth baseball teams from Nogales voiced their opposition to the idea fearing they'd lose access to War Memorial Stadium.
But it's being worked out so that all of Nogales' teams will still be able to play here. Each team has even written letters of support to the city expressing their endorsement of the Desert Ghosts.
Good news to businesses like Las Vigas Steakhouse located just down the street from the stadium.
"It's gonna bring jobs ... and very good for the town."
Las Vigas owner Hector Martinez has been in business in since 1989.
Just looking at the walls here it's obvious he's a sports fan, with framed pictures of Babe Ruth and Fernando Valenzuela.
But even more important than that he's a business man.
His restaurant is coming off its two worst years ever in sales.
A new baseball team might just be the shot in the arm his business needs.
"Do you see yourself staying open a little later on game nights with people coming out?" KOLD asks Martinez.
"Yes," he says, smiling. "We're definitely thinking about it."
Desert Ghosts' games are set to begin in June.
The American West Baseball League was formed in 2012. Other teams expected to be included in the league include the Fullerton Flyers, Long Beach Splash, Yuma Panthers and a yet to be named team from Las Cruces, New Mexico.

Celeb BFF Breakups & Makeups
Every friendship has its ups and downs but these celebs got through the drama and stayed strong!
By Emily Laurence
Ashley Tisdale & Vanessa Hudgens
Ashley, Vanessa, and Zac Efron all became super-close during their High School Musical days, and Zac and Vanessa became a Hollywood It couple soon after. But when flirty pics of Zac and Ashley surfaced, fans wondered if the leading man was over one co-star and into another. Drama? Not so much. Instead, Vanessa kept quiet about the whole thing, taking time to figure things out for herself. In the end, the two remained friends, even after Vanessa and Zac broke up!

Man shot, killed in East Palo Alto Saturday

A pedestrian killed crossing the street in Palo Alto, over 40 comments. A man shot and killed in East Palo Alto, not one comment. My only comment is how sad and telling is that.
on Jan 27, 2013 at 2:36 pm
Lyle - it's hard to know what to say that hasn't already been said. I understand & respect your comments, however.
There is a gang war right now & that may have a role in this recent death. A young man, once again, now dead, certainly w/loved ones in mourning.
For those of us who live here, who are law-abiding & don't relate to young violent thugs, or those who are their victims, because frankly, we don't interact w/other thugs, it's hard to know what to say. I've taken action in many ways through the years, as have thousands here. It's a deep-rooted set of social problems that we're all part of, that's been in place for decades.
What I see that's less dramatic but just as worrisome is hard, grinding labor just to keep heads above water, an unnecessary macho harshness that even affects the girls, a total *lack of privilege* - based on race, socio-econimic forces, education, family, & more - that is staggering. That's not everyone by any means, but it carries far & it's breathed, bred & a constant reality. So many good people here work tirelessly to combat this lack of privilege, to mixed results.

I have lived both in Palo Alto and East Palo Alto, and what a difference. In Palo Alto we worry about people coming from E. Palo Alto (this is what a police officer told me in Palo alto when he stopped me, thinking that I had come from E.PA.), to burglar the homes, but in Palo Alto, we worry about something more serious, we worry about the shotings that go on and on, at least 3 times a week you hear multiple shots, later we hear on the news that some one resulted dead or hurt. We just pray that the shots will not go into our homes and hurt our loved ones. I am wonder if this is ever going to get better. Things are the same than in 1986 when I first moved to EPA if not worst. We do pay higher tax than in 1986, but in regards to crime I do not notice improvements. I sometimes feel like demanding the city officials to get serious on this, but then I could get killed too (of course not by city officials).

The memories of a 41-point loss last year at St. Bernard didn't fade away quickly for the returning members of the Canyon girls basketball team.
The Cowboys used that setback as motivation Thursday to knock off host St. Bernard 67-64 in a West Coast Holiday Festival Invitational Division pool-play game.

Jared Polis on Technology
Proponent's Argument for voting Yes:
Opponent's Argument for voting No:
[Rep. Waxman, D-CA]: This bill will cripple National Public Radio, public radio stations, and programming that is vital to over 27 million Americans. We are now voting to deny the public access to one of our Nation's most credible sources of news coverage. This bill does not save a penny. This legislation does not serve any fiscal purpose, but it does serve an ugly ideological one. This legislation is not about reforming NPR. It is about punishing NPR. It is vindictive, it is mean-spirited, it is going to hit the smallest stations in rural areas particularly hard. Public radio is indispensable for access to news that's hard to get, especially where broadband service is limited.
Proponent's argument to vote Yes:Rep. RICK BOUCHER (D, VA-9): Fully 6.5 million households are totally unprepared for the transition on February 17; these 6.5 million households will lose all of their television service, and that number represents about 5.7% of the total American television viewing public. If almost 6%of the nation's households lose all of their television service, I think that most people would declare that the digital television transition has been a failure. In recognition of that reality, this legislation would delay the transition until June 12.
Opponent's argument to vote No:Rep. JOE LINUS BARTON (R, TX-6): The majority is trying to fix a problem that I do not think really exists. We have sent out 33 million coupons: 22 million of those coupons have been redeemed, and 11 million coupons are outstanding. The outstanding coupons are being redeemed, I think, by about 500,000 a week, something like that. In my opinion, you could keep the hard date and not have a problem, but if you think there is a problem, it is not from lack of money. We have appropriated $1.3 billion. About half of that is still in the Treasury, so the redemption rate is only about 52%. Even though we are delaying this until June 12 if this bill becomes law, according to the acting chairman of the FCC, 61% of the television stations in America are going to go ahead and convert to digital. 143 television stations already have converted, and in those areas where they have converted, I am not aware that there has been a huge problem.
Congressional Summary:The Online Protection and Enforcement of Digital Trade Act (or OPEN Act) addresses unfair trade practices relating to infringement of copyrights and trademarks by certain Internet sites. Defines an 'Internet site dedicated to infringing activity' as a website that:
OnTheIssues Notes:This bill is intended as a replacement for SOPA and PIPA, the two bills which sparked an Internet protest in January 2012 and a shutdown of Wikipedia.com and google.com. Google and Facebook prefer the OPEN Act; the music and movie industries prefer SOPA and PIPA. Independent content creators, which include OnTheIssues.org and the Copyright Alliance, oppose all three bills on free speech grounds, and because large corporate website have resources to fight legal battles while small independent websites do not.
A bill to prevent the Federal Communications Commission from repromulgating the fairness doctrine. Amends the Communications Act of 1934 to prohibit the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), notwithstanding any other provision of any Act, from having the authority to require broadcasters to present opposing viewpoints on controversial issues of public importance, commonly referred to as the Fairness Doctrine.

Diner Reviews
Service was ok. Waiter was very
attenttive at the begining but when he brought out our food 3 out of 4 orders were wrong. He left tofu out of my food in partciular and when i mentioned that my food was missing tofu, he simply brought out a plate of uncooked tofu and asked me to mix it in my food. i then asked him to take it back to the kitchen and mix the tofu and my food together on a hot skillet in the back so the tofu would be cooked and prepared withthe sauce and seasoning of my food. Also the water tasted like chlorine water and everyone at the table had to keep buying bottles of water throughout the course of dinner. I have been here several times before and I dont recall having such a bad experience with food or service."

The food was very good, and if we
lived closer, it would be our local Thai."

Always consistently very good
which is why it is a favorite. The spring rolls and seafood Pad Thai divine!"

We made a New Years Eve dinner and
enjoyed excellent Thai food with lots of spice and variety. Lots of people and close quarters, but had a great time, good food and good service. Price was reasonable for the area."

amazing! I come here all the time for delicious Asian fusion food."

Great place to run in and order
sushi to go, or stay for the incredible selection of sushi and other yummies."
Dined on 12/3/2013
This place impressed me. I'd seen
reviews on various other renowned sites, from the jaded foodies to the enthusiastic regulars. Honestly, the recommendation for quality tofu is what brought me in. I had the red curry with beef, my date had one of the house vegetable specials with the tofu, and we had a lovely dinner. The waitstaff was very attentive, the atmosphere was fun and positive, and the food was delicious. We received table settings with good, clean cloth napkins, and chopsticks. While it wasn't a quiet spot, the crowd had a lot of verve, and a good vibe. Portion size matched the prices and the quality. I feel I could recommend this place for take-out, anyday. The kitchen was fast, so an office luncheon would be a breeze here."
Dined on 9/18/2013
Love this place! One of our
favorite Asian restaurants in the DFW area. Always great!"

Food was very good - we had sushi
as a starter and it was fresh and flavorful. Pad Thai for entree was well flavored, not greasy, very nice. Excellent service. Very lively - packed house."
Dined on 4/8/2013
We enjoyed our Valentine Day meal
very much. Traffic was very bad this evening and we ran late. A call to the hostess, however, put us at ease - she seated us as quickly as possible when we arrived. Food was excellent, service not as good. But, the hostess returned time and again to keep everything lively and on track. So, overall, a very good experience - we look forward to our next meal at Asian Mint."

Excellent gluten free tasty

Dined on 8/5/2012
Not a fan. Service was not bad but
the food was terrible - also did not bring the right order out."
Dined on 7/9/2012
This was out first experience at
Asian Mint. We had a 7:30 dinner reservation on a Sunday night but weren't seated until close to 8 PM although the entire party arrived by 7:35. There was a party of 20 sitting near us which seemed to slow things down, and the wait staff seemed disorganized. We didn't eat until about 8:45. It's small and crowded - to the point where glasses and dishes were being knocked off other tables by accident and breaking. The food was very good except for their signature dessert (green tea cake) which was bland and tasteless. Half-off wine night was a bonus and the wine was very good. Recommended but not enthusiastically."

I love going to Asian Mint. :)
Sometimes it can be a bit crowded, which is why I decided to try Open Table, but the food is always delicious. Even if you just want a drink or a dessert, this place is a wonderful little spot to dine at."

We always enjoy Asian Mint for a
quick dinner. And the Sunday 1/2 price wine was an added bonus!"

We were there on a week night so
the food was served pretty quickly. We liked everything but the dollar sushi. I always fall for the dollar sushi knowing I always get disappointed. I was not impressed at all with the dollar sushi. They were very small and the fish didn't look that great. They remind me of the pieces left over from the trimmings. They have a great selection on the menu already and should stick to that and not try to lower themselves to be like other average Japanese places. Personally I prefer quality over quantity. I forgot how small the tables are. It is hard to order variety of dishes due to the space. I feel like we have to rush through our meal because of it."

Asian Mint stays consistently
crowded because you can count on delicious food served in a lively atmosphere. It's our favorite Asian restaurant. And if you're a dessert person, their sticky rice is the best!!!"

Nice decor...very busy, which
would seem to indicate it's very popular. Food was good, but not exceptional. Service was very fast and friendly. I would recommend trying Asian Mint and you may find dish you love. "2 peppers" hot dish was very hot, but not especially tasty."

Usually, I like the food, and the
service A LOT. Maybe they had a different chef this weekday night because the food was definitely not up to par. The Mint sampler appetizers were really off, especially the Satay chicken which was overcooked yet cold when it came. One "pad kee mow" was ordered "mild" and came really "hot", and it was heavy not light on the sauce. Other dishes seemed a bit off as well. Service was slow yet it was too early to be really crowded. Would have to think twice about going back again to what has been one of my favorite restaurants as it was really off."

I have dined at the Asian Mint on
several occasions. The waitstaff is very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. They have a wonderful gluten free menu. Lunch is usually very fast. Dinner can take a while to come out so plan on a leisurely evening. The atmosphere is so fun and energetic you won't notice the wait and will want to linger over drinks, dinner, and dessert anyway."

Made reservation and had to wAit
while they sat others."

The food is great, especially the
Pad Ke Mow and the appetizers (try the sampler dumplings). Prices are very reasonable. Really glad they now take reservations as there has always been a considerable wait if you are a walk-in as it's a small but popular neighborhood restaurant."

Shattered glass marks the spot where Abington Police say a
masked man shot his way into the TD Bank at 2900 West Moreland.
Investigators say he opened fire after trying to follow an
employee arriving for work inside.
"They attempted to lock the door to prevent him from getting
in, explained Deputy Chief John Livingood. "He shot his way into the bank
shattering the door."
Investigators say the robber's reign of terror on the bank
employees continued once he strong armed his way inside.
"He forced employees into the back and actually
drug one employee and at least one more shot fired inside the bank."
Police say fortunately no one was seriously hurt and no money was
taken after they say the crook escaped through the back door.
Throughout part of the day the bank remained closed as
investigators marked off clues and talked to witnesses.
Police say the robber made his escape with the help of a
getaway driver in a mid-size, black S-U-V with chrome wheels with a license plate that may start with the letters E-R-C.
