This page lists the characters of the Fighting Game, Duel Savior Destiny, and the tropes associated with them. Beware spoilers.
open/close all folders
Taiga Touma
Taiga ToumaTaiga Touma is the protagonist of the story and quite an open lecher. Surprisingly he actually seems to be rather successful in his pursuits despite the story beginning with him messing up. While he begins as an ordinary student living in Japan, he and his little sister are soon dragged into an alternate world called Avatar where the pair quickly receive their own Aether Relics as they join the Savior Class training to save the world. His sister just wants to go home, but Taiga figures if he saves the world he'll get his own harem. Due to coming from an advanced scientific world, his mindset is rather opposed to the principles magic is built on and thus has no aptitude for it, rendering him a pure brawler. While his oversexed attitude gets on the nerves of his classmates, they do come to realize his sincerity. His Aether Relic is Traitor and it takes the form of a Shapeshifter Weapon with a default short sword form.
Berio Trope
Berio TropeBerio Trope is the healer and support unit of the group. She is very devout and is often found in the local church. While she is very nice to most people, she and Taiga start off on the wrong foot and he squabbles with her almost as much as he does Lily. That said, they do appear to reach an understanding quite early both in relation to how Taiga sees his duty and Berio's own skeletons in the closet: Her background as a quasi Mafia Princess and a kleptomaniac split personality known as Black Papillon.
Kaede Hiiragi
Kaede HiiragiKaede Hiiragi is the last Savior Candidate summoned. While she initially puts up a cold, businesslike front so that she'll be taken seriously as a ninja, she's actually fairly ditzy. On the other hand, she really is an amazing hand to hand fighter with a great deal of training, belying her incompetent seeming attitude. Unfortunately, due to seeing her parents killed in front of her, she has a strong fear of blood that holds her back as a fighter. Kaede comes from a world more like our own than one of magic, so like Taiga she has no aptitude for it. Instead, she's a Fragile Speedster who uses a tonfa as her primary weapon.
RicoRico is the summoner of the Savior Candidate class, though oddly enough she does not remember summoning Taiga. While those with the aptitude to become summoners are rare, this does not necessarily make them strong mages. She is in fact the member of the class with the lowest battle aptitude ratings and consistently loses against her opponents after the first match. In terms of abilities, she's quite fragile and tends to make more use of support skills than direct attacks, thought not to the extent that Berio does. She is extremely quiet, but she's the only member of the original class that has an even slightly favorable opinion of Taiga from the start.
NanashiNanashi is a bizarre girl that Taiga literally stumbled upon while exploring a tomb with Berio. Not noticing her, he followed the fleeing Berio outside and was followed by Nanashi, who showed up in his room that night. Charmed by the extremely cute girl who confessed her love to him, he was all ready to get some action going. Unfortunately, her arm fell and she cheerily announced her undead status. In terms of personality, Nanashi is quite the ditz, though she also shows some surprising skills. She has great knowledge of medicine and by means unknown is capable of matching the Savior Class candidates despite not having an Aether Relic of her own. Despite her rather open affections and cute appearance, Taiga finds her abhorrent and tries to stay away due to her corpse like body temperature, glompy behavior and tendency to fall apart.
Lily Sheerfield
Lily SheerfieldLily is the class ace and a top notch tsundere. She is very hard working and proficient in destructive magic, though her healing and support leave something to be desired. In contrast to Touma, she has always lived in magic influenced worlds and thus finds the studies of science to be as difficult as Taiga finds magic. However, due to her competitive nature and desire to be the best she begins studying it with renewed vigor when Taiga and Mia join the class. Lily is arrogant and dismissive, but her attitude is an obvious front to cope with the pain of having her entire world destroyed by Ruin when she was a child. Lily is the most openly hostile person to Taiga in the class in a manner of speaking. She is highly combat oriented and focuses on sharp, fast magical attacks.
Mia Touma
Mia ToumaMia is Taiga's little sister and was summoned to Avatar at the same time he was. Unlike Taiga, she just wants to go home, though she's unwilling to leave without her brother. Despite being more intelligent than Taiga or Kaede in general, she also shows no aptitude for magic due to the world she came from. She's also not as powerful as they are and tends to rely on her Aether Relic Justy, which is a very powerful bow. She is extremely possessive, does not care much about the world she has been summoned to and is often at loggerheads with resident tsundere Lily. However, despite her obvious and massive infatuation with her brother, she is willing to stay and fight alongside him despite his loudly declared goal of assembling a harem.
Princess Crea
Princess CreaWhen wandering around between classes one day, Taiga and some of his classmates stumble across an arrogant little pink haired girl, who demands that they show them about the academy and especially the facilities of the Savior Class. Eventually, she 'accidentally' gets them into a fight with some monsters and disappears while they are busy. Soon after, it is revealed that she is actually the reigning monarch of the nation and a clever strategist and diplomat despite genuinely being the age she appears. Despite her declaring her love for Taiga in several routes, she did not have a route until the release of Destiny. She has no combat ability.
Muriel Sheerfield
Muriel SheerfieldMuriel Sheerfield is the principal of Floria Academy and a natural guess for who ought to be a Savior Candidate. However, as explained early on, she is so powerful that nothing is enough of a threat to her for her to require her to call upon an Aether Relic in the first place. Thus, she is merely in charge of the academy. She is cold and practical in most matters, though she has a soft spot for adopted daughter Lily. True to her reputation, she is in fact an extremely powerful mage, though opportunities to see her in action are rare.
Dahlia Craford
Dahlia CrafordDahlia Craford is the other teacher seen on a regular basis. She's rather spacey, but in fact is another highly talented mage. Taiga is much more interested in her chest, however, which gets its own sound effect when she moves about. Despite her ability, she is never available as either a friendly or enemy unit.
Selbium Volt
Selbium VoltSelbium Volt is Taiga's best friend at the academy due to the way they see eye to eye on everything. Though he's quite the flirt, he is primarily infatuated with Taiga's sister who never takes him seriously. Despite his rather undignified role, he's actually fairly popular, thought not the same extent as Taiga. Sel is not proficient in magic nor does he have an Aether Relic, but he is in fact a highly trained soldier and fighter.
Downy Reed
Downy ReedDowny Reed is the final teacher of note at Floria academy and something of a sarcastic jerk. Taiga immediately starts to dislike him. Downy, for his part, is offended at Taiga's disrespectful attitude. Like the other two teachers shown, he is a highly capable mage and also a proficient swordsman.
ShezarShezar is a bloodthirsty killer with no interest in how the world will end up after the battles are all over. He began as the killer in a murder/theft pair but eventually killed his partner and father for unknown reasons. His only pleasure lays in spilling blood, but oddly enough he's the only member of the Lords of Ruin who seems to value his companions.
Mudou HachigyakuMudou is a giant of a man and a master swordsman. While not quite as interested in killing for its own sake as Shezar, he still places no value on human life and is a rather open rapist. Like Shezar, he seems to have little interest in what his side is actually doing and is mostly concerned with accumulating power and either killing or raping people.
ImnityImnity is a mysterious young girl who is in fact a spirit embodying the White Law, otherwise known as science, causality and the law of survival of the fittest. Unlike the others, she is mostly lacking in malice or grudges and seems to believe in the cause, though she can still be quite cruel at times.
LobeliaLobelia is the final member of the Lords of Ruin. A thousand years ago, she was a hero who eventually began to feel outcast and unwanted. She became the White apostle and turned upon her friends and allies when they refused to support her over Rubinas. She is a powerful necromancer and genuinely believes in the goals of the group, but she seems to be mostly driven by thoughts of spite and revenge for the perceived betrayal from her former allies.

Ruins of the Treadwell Mine site on Douglas Island, now possible to see on a zipline tour from Juneau. None of these do justice to the spectacular ravines and forest around the ruins, or the joy of flying over them all at 50mph. If you ever go to Juneau, check it out at Spirit of Alaska Tours.
These ruins are a quick walk on Sandy Beach (guess why we call it that) on Douglas Island and are really eerie at night.

David Maraniss' book, Barack Obama: The Story, describes Obama as a marijuana enthusiast:
"When a joint was making the rounds, he often elbowed his way in, out of turn, shouted 'Intercepted!' and took an extra hit."
Maraniss also describes Obama's technique of "roof hits" while hot-boxing cars.
"When the pot was gone, they tilted their heads back and sucked in the last bit of smoke from the ceiling."
Obama has been less than shy about his drug use in the past, writing about the topic himself in Dreams from My Father,
"Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it."
-Barack Obama
"The notion that pot has increased dramatically in potency is a DEA myth based on biased government data…samples of pot from the early '70s came from stale, low-potency Mexican "kilobricks" left in police lockers, whose potency had deteriorated to sub-smokable levels of less than 0.5%.
These were compared to later samples of decent-quality domestic marijuana, making it appear that potency had skyrocketed. A careful examination of the government's data show that average marijuana potency increased modestly by a factor of two or so during the seventies, and has been more or less constant ever since.
Contrary to popular myth, greater potency is not necessarily more dangerous, due to the fact that users tend to adjust (or "self-titrate") their dose according to potency. Thus, good quality sinsemilla is actually healthier for the lungs because it reduces the amount of smoke one needs to inhale to get high."
"Your tumor is here," his doctor told him while pointing at an x-ray of his head. "You're going to die."
Rodgers was given 18 months to live. Surgeons were able to remove about 80 percent of the tumor in 2007 and told him it probably would come back. They also put him on a chemotherapy regimen, which was when he "got involved in cannabis." He'd tried it a few times in his late teens and early 20s, but this experience was different.
"I took two puffs, and it was incredible," he says. "It made me feel well.""—
Marijuana Is Real Medicine For A Long List Of Ills
Marijuana keeps Craig Rodgers alive. With his muscular physique and energetic, fast-talking personality, the 36-year-old Las Vegas resident seems the epitome of health — except for the banana-size scar on the left side of his head.
"In just Oregon and Washington there are nearly 100,000 medical marijuana patients.
Now this once fringe culture has taken another step towards the mainstream – growers and grower cooperatives can now buy insurance policies to protect their crops and marijuana inventories against losses."
Cannabis Based Medicine Eases Pain & Suppresses Disease of Rheumatoid Arthritis:
Mouse studies have shown that THC and CBD have anti-inflammatory effects, and that CBD blocked progression of RA and produced improvements in symptoms.
In this study, low doses (25mg) of inhaled cannabis containing approximately 10% THC, smoked as a single inhalation using a pipe three times a daily over a period of 5 days, offered modest pain reduction in patients suffering from chronic neuropathic pain (pain associated with nerve injury) within the first few days.
The results also suggest that cannabis improved moods and helped patients sleep better. The effects were less pronounced in cannabis strains containing less than 10% THC.
Democratic congressional candidate Andy Caffrey has made a truly honorable campaign promise: If he wins his election this fall, he'll smoke a joint on the steps of the U.S. Capitol!
"Being pro-legalization in the Second District is not a hippie position. It's rooted in worrying about increasing violence connected with illegal grow operations, concerns about the environmental impact of pot farms and, most of all, the economy. " - Andy Caffrey for Congress 2012
WE BUD YOU ANDY!"—Democratic congressional candidate Andy Caffrey has made a truly honorable campaign promise: If he wins his election this fall, he'll smoke a joint on the steps of the U.S. Capitol!

I had lived with Renee and her mother since she was 12. She loved to hear about my vagabonding and when she was 16, she asked her mother if she could go hitchhiking with me. After traveling all over the country with me, she was happy to see her boyfriend again and - having lived so intimately with me on the trip - she seemed totally oblivious to my photographic presence. She was not religious at the time, but today she has turned to the Bible - living in deep poverty in Philadelphia

In Daredevil #9, storytellers Waid and Samnee skillfully add a new layer to the Purple Man's mythos by setting up his children as a new and different threat to Daredevil. As anyone familiar with Matt's history with Killgrave will know, the former's blindness makes him partially immune to the latter's powers of persuasion. Not completely immune, mind you, but able to resist by sheer force of will. At least part of Purple Man's power depends on his puppets being visually exposed to his purple … [Read More]
Review of Daredevil #8
I was born in 1977, when muted shades of brown and orange still reigned supreme in fashion and home decor. From the time I was old enough to have my own opinion, however, I loved purple. I was not yet two and still in a stroller when I grasped a pair of purple winter overalls and refused to let go. My mom obviously had to buy them. When I was a … [Read More]
Review of Daredevil #7
As you may have sensed from my review of Daredevil #6, I felt pretty much done with this two-part Original Sin tie-in after last issue, and was already mentally moving on to next month's Daredevil #8. I hadn't expected Daredevil #7 to pull me back in the way it did, and I definitely hadn't expected anything so clever, moving and well-crafted. Yes, … [Read More]

Nope, this is not a review. I don't have an advance copy of Daredevil #9 and this issue won't show up in Marvel's digital store for almost another hour as I'm sitting down to write this.

Jimmy Bryant and Marni Nixon are the unsung heroes of this 1961 favourite; it's their voices that emerge from Richard Beymer and Natalie Wood's mouths whenever they warble Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim's timeless tunes.
They were in good company: Shakespeare went equally uncredited for the plot to this Romeo And Juliet tale, set in a New York where gang tensions boil over in dance battles and knife scraps.
Thrillingly shot, Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise's volatile collaboration won 10 Oscars, more than any musical before or since. Not seen it? Time you did.

From out special corrispondent, code name "Puff Head"
Horses are trying to kill Madonna!!!
First on her 47th b-day:http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8973621/http://tinyurl.com/dkf59p
http://i.ivillage.com/E/090605/Madonna_300.jpgAgain, just a couple weeks ago:http://www.tmz.com/2009/04/18/madonna-injured-horseback-riding/Some pics Madonna and Steven Klein did together with horses:http://www.madonna-online.ch/m-online/galleries/2006/06-06-00_w-magazine/06-06-00_w-magazine-steven-klein.htmAlso, you should check out Madonna's Confessions Tour, if you have it in you. A lot of horse stuff going on like humans dressed and acting like horses (I wonder if they are of the "whorse" species you speak of on your website?), images of people falling off horses, and x-rays of Madge's broken bones in the background..I also attached a pic I just found of Madonna on a horse. It looks likes this horse has kidnapped her and is going to rape her!
This horse just fucking pisses me off. Fuck him. He is a fucking looser horse and I fucking hate him. Stupid horse.
Ok horse, fine, you win this round. You go ahead and you fuck Harry Potter. You better not hurt him though. Don't you fucking dare hurt Harry Potter. If any part of him is any more stretched out or smooshed then when you took him, I will come after you. Just give me one reason horse. Give me a reason to come over there and slap the shit out of your fucking Mr. Ed looking face.
Quick note, I fucking hate Sarah Jessica Parker because she fucking resembles a horse. She is, what I call, a WHORE-se. That is completely different from what the horses are trying to create with human woman, the Whorse.
Obviously this is one of those fucking friends of a horse cats riding a horse into battle. Well fuck them. Cats aren't better than people either. Cats are fucking lazier than horses. Cats lick themselves all day. That proves that cats are even more perverted than horses. I say, any animal seen being friends with a horse can fuck themselves in their fucking horse fucking ass.
This fucking horse shit gets worse every fucking day. The horses have an accomplice. CATS. Fucking horses an cats are fucking best god damn friends now. I cannot fucking believe this fucking shit. Cute and cuddly meets smelly and horrifying. Fuck you horse, and fuck you cats for being friends with them.
Obviously this is a horse coming in for a landing after it flew over a house. Why was it flying over the house, you ask? Because it was shitting on the house. Horses, because they can fly, enjoy shitting on the roofs of houses. Horses are fucking assholes, dude.
I don't drink Budweiser for this very reason. They promote horses. Not only that, they pay the horses to pull that wagon. So fuck you, horse, and fuck you, Budweiser. It's a shitty beer anyway that tastes like urine. It prolly is horse urine. You should be ashamed.
This is a picture of a horse trying to eat an old person. Moments after this photograph was taken, the horse was arrested. It was very quickly found that the horse was guilty of trying to eat an old person, and the horse was sent to a prison island in the pacific. On that island horses are left to kill each other. It is humane, as there is enough food to feed anyone that survives. That and who the fuck cares about fucking horses anyway, am I right?
So, this horse thinks he can make himself look like a cuddly panda, and maybe we wont notice that he is a VILE FUCKING CREATURE THAT NEEDS TO FUCKING DIE.

Mukwonago stages another Level 2 surprise
One year ago, the Mukwonago football team delivered perhaps the upset of the WIAA postseason, stunning No. 1-ranked Sun Prairie in Level 2 of the playoffs en route to the state semifinals.
This year's Level 2 showing was no less shocking, and no less convincing.
Holding down one of the most high-powered offenses in the state to a season-low scoring output, Mukwonago completely flipped the script from a 38-6 loss on the same field two weeks earlier and upset Muskego on Oct. 31, 22-7. The win earned the Indians a whale of a Level 3 opportunity against longtime rival Arrowhead.
"The first time we played them, they took it to us," Mukwonago coach Clay Iverson said of Muskego. "That was a good game for a conference title. We definitely did not save anything (knowing we could meet again in the playoffs), they just beat us. You come through this league and come one game away from first place, you don't want to get into a situation where you're throwing stuff out that works just because of one bad game. ... Our kids kept the faith even though the first time, frankly, we didn't coach very well or play very well. This time was different."
In the first go-round, Muskego took a 35-0 lead at halftime and spent the majority of the second half with a running clock. This time, Mukwonago had a 22-0 lead at the break.» Read Full Article

Local dentist takes stand against sweets this Halloween
One area dentist is redefining the phrase "put your money where your mouth is." This Halloween, trick-or-treaters can bring up to 10 pounds of candy to Pewaukee Dental and receive $1 per pound. Dr. Mike Schneidler is leading this anti-decay movement by giving away dollars and goodie bags with toothbrushes and items donated by area businesses.
The candy and other donated goodies are sent to military men and women deployed in harm's way. The dentist's office has heard from many service members that they give the candy and other items to local children, who, in turn, provide information about where improvised explosive devices (IEDs) are hidden. Visit www.opgratitude for a list of items to donate.
In the past, many children have just given their candy for the soldiers and told the dentist's office to keep the money for shipping.
Candy and other donations from the list will be collected from 4 to 6 p.m. Monday, Nov. 3, at Pewaukee Dental, 1231 George Towne Drive, Pewaukee. The candy must be unopened and unbitten.
For more information, call (262) 691-9832, or visit www.pewaukeedental.com.

Mukwonago pulls away from Arrowhead in volleyball sectional
Alissa Swirth volunteered for the reassignment.
The Mukwonago right-side hitter told coach Mary Pocius that she knew she could handle the attacks of Arrowhead junior Jenna Stefan, balls that were finding the line and giving the MHS girls volleyball team fits in the WIAA Division 1 sectional semifinal Oct. 30 in Watertown.
"We changed our rotation pattern," Pocius said. "(Swirth) came over and said, 'I can block that line girl, coach,' and I said, 'OK, you've got it.' She had two blocks immediately in that game."
The moment was the beginning of the third set, shortly after Arrowhead had held on for a 30-28 win in set No. 2 to even the match. For the first time all night, Mukwonago was the squad that came out fast, taking a 6-1 lead en route to a 25-18 win in set three.
The tweak ultimately helped the top-seeded Indians to victory, when Mukwonago recorded a 25-23, 28-30, 25-18, 25-20 win and moved on to meet sixth-seeded Germantown in Saturday's sectional final at Waukesha West.» Read Full Article
Private money paves way for Christian school in Pewaukee
What if you could build a school from scratch, incorporate everything you thought necessary to launch children on a path to highly productive adulthood, and not worry about the price tag?
That never happens in education.

Chinese engineer to plead guilty in theft of GE Healthcare trade secrets
A Chinese engineer charged with stealing trade secrets and confidential information from a GE Healthcare subsidiary in Waukesha has reached a plea agreement with federal prosecutors.
Jun Xie, 41, will plead guilty to one count of stealing trade secrets, according to federal court records. He faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a fine of $250,000.
Xie could also face immediate deportation. No date has been set for Xie to formally enter his plea.
According to the plea agreement, the estimated loss incurred by GE, based on the cost of developing the stolen information, was between $100 million and $200 million. The restitution payment specified in the agreement, however, is just $130,000.
Xie has been free on personal recognizance bond since his arrest, though prosecutors kept his passport.» Read Full Article
Delafield to review controversial agreement
City of Delafield - The Common Council may be asked to review at its Monday, Nov. 3,meeting a controversial out of court settlement agreement between the city and previous owners of the Village Square shopping center.
Mayor Michele DeYoe said tonight she may ask the council to review the agreement which includes restrictions on the size of shopping center, individual buildings wihin the complex, and the kinds of retail and service businesses that may be located in the shopping center.
Earlier this evening, the Plan Commission voted 6 to 1 to reject a proposal to build three apartment buildings on the west side of the shopping center partly because the proposed development violated a number of provisions of the agreement.
After the vote, DeYoe said she might bring up the settlement agreement at the council meeting because "it is poiicy question the council might want to address before we receive some other proposal."
The settlement agreement was reached in 2004 between the city and then shopping center owners Jon Spheeris and Mike Schutte to resolve lawsuits they filed after the city rejected their plans for the shopping center.» Read Full Article
Delafield's Village Square Apartments Rejected
City of Delafield - The Plan Commission voted 6 to 1 tonight to recommend the city reject a proposal to build 90 high end apartment units on about 8 acres of land on the west side of the Village Square shopping center.
Alderman Tim Aicher, who cast the dissenting vote on the commission, predicted the Common Council Monday night will vote to go along with the recommendation.
The vote came after an hour long public hearing and a nearly as long presentation by United Properties Inc of Minneapolis, the owner;s of the shopping center, and Madison developer Jim McCormick who United Properties asked to built the apartments.
More than a half dozen neighbors who live on nearby Vettelson Road, including Alderman Jeff Krickhahn, spoke against the proposal.
They asserted that the three story high 30 unit apartment buildings were not compatible with the rural residential neighborhood with one home per acre lot.» Read Full Article
Complaint: Sussex man driving drunk injures four in two-car crash
A 41-year-old Sussex man crashed his car into another vehicle while he had a blood alcohol content nearly four times the legal limit, but repeatedly denied alcohol had anything to do with the accident, a criminal complaint says.
Michael Day, Jr., N65 W22201 Silver Leaf Drive, was charged Monday, Oct. 27, in Waukesha County Circuit Court with four counts of operating while intoxicated, causing injury — all repeat offenses; his fourth operating while intoxicated offense; and driving with a revoked license. Day has three prior OWI convictions on his record.
According to the complaint, police responded around 10 p.m. Friday, Oct. 24, to the scene of a two-car accident at the intersection of Appleton and Menomonee avenues in the village of Menmomonee Falls.
Susan Hanson, one of four passengers in the car struck by Day, was the first to speak to the officer, and she told him one of her daughters — identified only by her initials in the complaint — needed to be transported to the hospital for hip and neck injuries.
Police then spoke to Day who was allegedly casually eating a hamburger on the side of the road and appeared "extremely calm," according to the complaint.» Read Full Article

What is the big deal with the Java U Cafes
Everyone is always bragging about them, but I think they suck.
I have been to the one on Queen Mary, Guy and today in Old Montreal.
While the places are stylish, the coffee and food is horrible.
Today they served me the worst Cappuccino coffee and the waiter had the nerve to tell me "Look how beautiful the foam is" "I am a artist" "I hope you appreciate it it took me 15 mins to make"
I wanted to tell him look is good, but nothing if it doesn't taste good.
Then I went to the bathroom and they had the storage door open and boxes of glasses laying all on the floor next to the urinals.
Very weird.
Anyone else ever had such experiences and in your view where are the best places for a great Capp or Espresso?
These days, debate as to the best espresso-based drinks usually centres on Caffè ArtJava (www.caffeartjava.com), Caffè Italia (6840 St-Laurent in Little Italy) and Café Olympico aka Open Da Night (124 St-Viateur West). All three pull excellent shots, though ArtJava excels in milk-based drinks.
re: carswell
I have had good experiences with Java U in the past, but stopped in at Art Java a few weeks ago (without having heard the hype - so no expectations) and had an absolutley fantastic coffee. Will return soon to sample the menu - any suggestions?
re: Sam
ummm.... sam, requesting menu ref for a cafe sounds a bit..over the top even for a mvd like artjava. good cupajava but definitely not a destination for delectable food self serve only take a number wait and (depending on time of day) wait (people front of me perusing menu and yes single cash only)and wait but patient me holding plastified number this is important as found out later cause they then bring food to your numbered table (yes that number). what i did end up with looked and tasted remarkably identical to javau sandwiches..hmmm would this be an irony or coincidence if same caterer serviced both locations. and yes the little appleshapedfoam thingy drawn on top of my latte made the 40min(17min wait 13min eat) elapsed lunch entirely worthwhile.(i think..
java u is the perfect example hampsted/CSL/the West Island's complete lack of taste and refinement despite their pretentious tastes for upscale prefab garbage
It's so funny you should mention this because I'm a student at Concordia University, where we have a Java U in the main building. The atmosphere is pretty much created by laid back students, which is okay. But I always wonder how anyone, especially poor students,can afford the waaaay overpriced food!
Also, has anyone been to the Westmount Java U, where at night it becomes a fancy restaurant? So you can't go in to sit for coffee past like 5pm. It's ridiculous!
re: Kristin
Which tells me you like it.....which is perfectly fine. Old Montreal JU turned into a nightclub at night but I was too busy elsewhere to ever go back and see it. As frustrated said, he/she likes it too just has some gripes. For me, being in Montreal is like stepping out of the desert and into an oasis, so maybe I'm less critical of things because of that. Except pizza, Monteal has awful pizza, but most pizza anywhere is awful until you find the few local good ones.
sure they are nice im mean i've been going to the one queen mary since it opened but if u want my opinion its the management that is bringing it down. I find that the people they hire are unacceptable. i had a server tell me "that im gonna take my time to do it just because you are rushed" how more obnoxious can a person be. Management should take care of their clients and treat them right if they dont want to lose customers. Apart from that the atmosphere is great but the food is overpriced so go there if u wanna treat yourself
Java U may not be good for anything but atmosphere, but that is good enough for me. The sandwich I had wasn't great either, but i enjoyed the stone and the atmosphere at the one in Old Montreal, didn't get to see the others, I was too busy on my weekend trips checking everything else out. Been years (2005) since I was last in town. Historical stone/cement has personality, whereas modern buildings are ok if constructed well, but lacking that beautiful feeling of history and grandeur you experience in a wonderful old relic.
Terrible chain. Makes you wonder how they survive competing against the likes of Second Cup and Starbucks on the one hand, and against all the third wave indie cafes on the other.
Best places for a good espresso/capuccino IMO:
For traditional italian cap: Olimpico, Caffe Italia, Cafe Prague and Lili&Oli.
For third wave: Myriade, Caffe in Gamba, Flocon, Tunnel.
re: Siumaieater
it survives simply b ecause it's there
if any should close first its cafe depot
re: frogsteak
... or Café Suprême, Presse Café and the ever dusty Van Houtte for that matter
re: Siumaieater
they all utter shit but, in my opinion, java u is a cut above those chains. not by much, but they are.
I never thought there were a great deal to do with Java U before you mentionned it to be honest.
Obs mentions that it might be a west island thing and it might make sense because I'm very far from the anglophone mcgil/concordia crowd (being a 30ish year old UQAM alumni).
For me, Java U is a pretty generic 2nd wave coffee shop. I put them together with Starbucks, Café Suprème, Presse Café, Toi & Moi Café and Van Houtte, one rung below Second Cup and two rung below Aux Deux Maries and Brulerie St-Denis.
Now its a very personnal classification based on the fact that I prefer a brown south american blend over a dark african blend and I like my coffees very fruity and acid so I can have a hard time when the standard offerings seem to be targetted to a very specific palette that is the complete opposite of my perfect coffee (I can make due with the Paradiso Brun at Second Cup but my perfect cup will probably be found at the brulerie).
If you are looking for a Cappucino I recommend you look at the third wave offerings.If you are confused about that damned "wave thing" you can look at that article:
Basically, for me:
The first wave is the prototypical "good ol cup of joe" at your average diner and is probably best represented by our Tim Hortons and Dunkin Donuts. At best you'll be asked if you like your coffee "bold" or "mild"
The second wave came in with Starbucks in the states and Second Cup in Canada with Montréal having some local variants like Aux Deux Maries and La Brulerie St-Denis. You'll usually have two information in hand when you order your coffee: the blend [usually the provenance of the bean but it could be a mix] and the roast [brown to black]. I learned most about coffee at one of these places because they used to change the "coffee of the day" every day so I would take note on the "wow moments". Plus the waitresses were very, very cute.
Third wave coffee appeared 5-10 years ago and is focused on european variants, optimal preparations techniques, specific blending and alternative "drip" methods (you'll see your drip coffee replace by a "Chemex" preparation for example), If second wave roasters were the coffee answer to sommeliers, the third wave specialist are a hipster version of mixologists.
Good third wave places: Café Saint-Henri, Myriade, Flocon, Le couteau, Névé.These will probably produce your best cappucino. I am a drip coffee drinker but when I want a great expresso I go to these places (and then I regret not taking another double expresso and I have to contain myself because I know drinking expressos at the rate I would enjoy would lead to a very pleasant but very early death.)
re: CaptCrunch
Those "waves" omit the cafés of specific waves of immigration. Here, of course Italian and later Portuguese, but also the Hungarian and other Central European cafés in the western part of the city centre. Where there were also divine cakes...
I like Brûlerie St-Denis, and am very glad to have that at the airport, but still I'm fonder of some of the Italian cafés just down the street. But you have to like their house blend (my favourite in the neighbourhood is Caffè San-Simeon).
Actually espresso contains less caffeine than drip coffee (I hate drip coffee, but would be open to new ways of preparing it that don't make it either dishwatery or horribly bitter).
re: lagatta
No, I agree its not a perfect classification but the coffee map changes geographically (the first time I went to london there was little to no presence of drip coffee apart from Starbucks).
The three "wave" classification reflects my reality although it tends to forget that we already had good expresso shops in our market (from the italian community among other things).
That being said, I prefer 3rd wave expresso to Italian espressos by a loong shot (but that's just me... :))
re: CaptCrunch
it's eSpresso. just sayin'.
re: C70
Ha! I guess expresso is the french way of saying it.
Also forgot to answer lagatta on his last comment:
I'm pretty sure its not less caffeine per volume. I would actually be one of the rare individual to potentially enjoy a 20 ounce jug of espresso. I'm a high volume consumer and would rather always have the flavor of coffee available in a reduced fashion than have this intense experience and have a *really* bad day afterwards :D
re: Maximilien
it's true. they had good fries and pretty good salads as well. but the quality has gone down while the prices have gone up. now it is absurdly expensive.
re: frogsteak
I understand the Java U in the Hall building at Concordia is going to be replaced in the next year when their lease is up.
There is a time when it was a step above other chains. Java U had quality sandwiches & snacks, a nice vibe and good coffee. Some years ago, not sure exactly when or why why, but they changed the quality of their products. and it hasn't been the same ever since. I remember when I noticed, I was at the old Montreal St-Paul street location (the one that has closed, so a few years ago), and ordered one of my regular sandwich, but they had changed the recipe. I let them know the new version was nowhere near as good, but they haven't changed it yet.
It's a shame but that's it. Now, it's on the level of the lowest of the coffee chains, when it used to be a cut above.
re: sweettoothMTL
When I studied at Concordia, I was a heavy purchaser (no pun intended) of brownies at the Guy St. location. They used to be amazing -- super moist.
Now, I look at the brownies there (or at any other branch) and they look pathetic, not appealing. The last time I bought one, it was quite dry. I thought "I can make better brownies at home." :(
re: rwarren
I also used to make a detour to get their brownie at Concordia, they were not wrapped, just piled up in a tower, then they started to wrap them individually in saran and they are just too wet.

BROADWAY,Va. (WHSV) -- A woman in the valley received a royal letter from across the pond from the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
Arletta Clutteur wrote a letter to the couple in early August congratulating them on their union and the arrival of their son Prince George.
Yesterday, she received a post card featuring a photo capturing one of Prince George's first introductions to the world.
Behind it, the couple thanked Aletta for her kind words and her gift.
"I thought this was really neat because I never thought in my mind when I sent this letter that I would actually get a picture," said Clutteur.
She also sent the couple a gift for the new baby, a bible for the new prince

The world's lowest-yielding bonds and a weakening currency are encouraging Japanese insurers to look abroad, adding to the exodus of funds from the nation.
South Korean bonds are attracting five times more foreign inflows than Japan, where stimulus measures have pushed yields to record lows and devalued the yen.
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe looks set to drive an indicator of economic hardship to a 33- year high by increasing taxes and prices amid stagnant wages.
Japanese stocks fell, sending the Nikkei 225 Stock Average to its first drop in three days, after the Bank of Japan refrained from adding more monetary stimulus, and as concerns mounted that Greece may exit the euro zone.
Japanese stocks rose for a third day, with the Nikkei 225 Stock Average headed for its biggest gain in two weeks, after German and French leaders pledged to support European banks and stem the region's debt crisis.

Japanese stocks fell the most since February after U.S. securities regulators accused Goldman Sachs Group Inc. of fraud, commodity prices slid and the yen climbed.
Olympus Corp. jumped for a fourth day, set for the longest streak of advances since an accounting scandal erupted in October, as investors cover bearish wagers and bet its Tokyo Stock Exchange listing will be retained.
Japan's 10-year government bonds declined, trimming this week's advance, after stocks gained and the Group of Seven said their central banks will jointly intervene in the currency market to weaken the yen.
Japanese stocks gained for a third day as rising sentiment among U.S. consumers and an improved outlook for capital spending stoked expectations earnings will increase.
"Life insurers' plans show they are convinced that yield differentials will widen and the yen will weaken."

First things first. If Gordon Brown wants to have an election in October, then he will have to start moving this week as he has to recall Parliament in order to dissolve it. This blog still thinks that it will not happen but, of course, a week is a long time in politics, as we so well know. It is not, however, long enough to decide on an election, dissolve Parliament, run a campaign, hold the election and go to the Queen as victorious party leader.
On the other hand, either Prime Minister Brown or his advisers have worked out that endlessly going on about an early election keeps the Conservatives on the hop. His latest wheeze is to get John Bercow, about whom rumours have been flying for some time that he might cross the floor, and the egregious Patrick Mercer about whom my colleague has written before, to "advise the government" on matters of security in the case of the latter and children with learning difficulties in the case of the former.
Let's get a few details out of the way first. Neither of these gentlemen is an expert in the chosen advisory field. Bercow possibly knows less than Mercer, the latter having served in Her Majesty's forces and risen to Lieutenant-Colonel but even that is not a recommendation for overall ability to understand security problems.
After all, we do not think that everyone who has risen to Lieutenant-Colonel is suitable for being Secretary or Shadow Secretary for Defence, much less decide on the country's security.
The image being created and swallowed by a few Conservatives, notably Chairperson Caroline Spelman and the odd commenter on Toryboy Blog, that a new all inclusive government is being formed. La patrie est en danger and we cannot mess around with oppositions. All must come to the aid of the government as is their patriotic duty.
The polite response to that is "tosh". There are other, less polite words one could use. This is not the Second World War and the country is not in danger; there is no total economic collapse and although things are likely to go even more wrong under Brown the Premier than they did under Brown the Chancellor, the crisis is not big enough to abandon normal democratic, constitutional, adversarial politics.
We have, of course, been here before and not that long ago. Tony Blair also tried to create a "big tent" politics and entice in Conservatives who were either in basic disagreement with their party or were so incensed at the way they had been treated by the party that they agreed to enter that tent. It did not work then and it will not work now though this whole saga does prove yet again that the difference between Blair and Brown is miniscule.
There is a good deal of wailing and gnashing of teeth in Conservative circles as represented by Toryboy blog commenters, in particular about Patrick Mercer, who has been something of a blue-eyed boy for them. (Bercow everyone has written off some time ago.)
While there are a number of suggestions about
GCHQ CCHQ and local associations having words with the gentlemen in question (though we know what GCHQ CCHQ thinks as explained by Caroline Spelman) others, who defended Mercer and demanded that he be made leader or, at the very least, defence spokesman immediately, are now scrabbling round.
Patrick Mercer, we are told, is not really a politician but a simple soldier and he is doing his patriotic duty as he sees right. If he is not a politician but a simple soldier, he should get out of politics and carry on writing about the Battle of Inkerman, his favoured subject.
Unless there is a huge emergency such as a possible immediate attack by the Wehrmacht and the Luftwaffe, the patriotic duty of every MP is to hold the government to account. Furthermore, the patriotic duty of every opposition MP is to OPPOSE the government. That is what they were elected to do.
We have an adversarial system in politics and the law and this is the opposite of the Continental consensual system that our politicians are eager to impose on us. The great advantage of the adversarial system is that it is considerably more transparent and we know what those …. ahem ... people are up to.
The debates are out in the open (mostly) and when you vote for one party you do not expect it to get into bed (so to speak) with another party you have not actually voted for. It is, indeed, the patriotic duty of every politician and all non-politicians as well, to uphold that system unless you actually do think the alternative would be much better for the country. If you do, please provide facts and figures in support of your argument.
Neither Mr Bercow nor Mr Mercer appear to think that a consensual system of politics is better for the country – in fact, I can still recall Mr Bercow as a eurosceptic – but they clearly think that in order to achieve some semblance of power they can, personally, abandon what is a true and tried political system.
All of which reminds me of a comment made to me by a politically savvy journalist friend. The trouble with the Conservatives, he said, is that they are not hungry enough for power. They do not want to win badly enough and the voters know this.
Caroline Spelman's idiotic response to the less than honest or, for that matter, patriotic behaviour by Messrs Bercow and Mercer proves that point.

Arlington, VA (Sports Network) - The Washington Capitals have signed center Mikhail Grabovski to a one-year, $3 million contract.
Grabovski spent the past five seasons with Toronto, but became a free agent in July when the Maple Leafs used a buyout on the final four seasons of a five- year deal he signed in March 2012.
The 29-year-old veteran notched just nine goals and 16 points in 48 games during the truncated 2013 season. He had 52 goals and 109 points over 155 games the previous two years.
"Mikhail adds speed and offense to our lineup, and we are very pleased to have him sign with the Capitals," said Washington general manager George McPhee in a statement Friday. "We believe he will be an excellent addition to our club."
Originally selected by the Canadiens in the fifth round of the 2004 draft, Grabovski has racked up 94 goals and 217 points in 367 career games with Montreal and Toronto.

New Alert – Two Questions to Ask Every Candidate
Candidate Questionnaire: Will you promise to protect American workers?
The FAIR Congressional Task Force invites all candidates across the country to put their position on immigration reform on the record.
American workers are facing desperate economic conditions. Wages have plummeted while millions of Americans have been pushed out of the labor force entirely. Youth unemployment is sky-high. Decades of record immigration have placed enormous stress on American jobseekers, taxpayers and communities. Yet politicians in Washington who claim to oppose "comprehensive immigration reform" are pushing legislation that would not only legalize millions of illegal workers but give mega-corporations millions of new foreign workers — depressing wages and reducing jobs for American workers.
It is therefore essential that we know if candidates support TRUE immigration reform policies.
The FAIR Task Force Questionnaire is simple, consisting of only three questions. It asks candidates to declare whether they support or oppose: (1) amnesty; (2) increasing the number of guest workers; and (3) increasing the overall level of immigration. When candidates declare their opposition on all three questions, voters know their candidate supports TRUE immigration reform. Download the PDF of the Questionnaire or click here to take the survey online.

TechnoServe and FrontlineSMS Use Mobile Technology to Help Train Farmers
September 01, 2011
In Tanzania, TechnoServe is partnering with FrontlineSMS, an organization that uses mobile messaging technology to help non-governmental organizations communicate with groups of people in developing countries.
In Tanzania, TechnoServe is partnering with FrontlineSMS, an organization that uses mobile messaging technology to help non-governmental organizations communicate with groups of people in developing countries. FrontlineSMS is helping to facilitate farmer training for TechnoServe's Coffee Initiative in Tanzania. Below, FrontlineSMS Community Support Coordinator Florence Scialom speaks with James Hangaya, Monitoring and Evaluation Analyst at Technoserve, about how he is using FrontlineSMS to help collect the data he needs. This post originally appeared on the FrontlineSMS blog and is reposted with permission.
Training for farmers is a key to TechnoServe's strategy in Tanzania, and forms a large part of their Coffee Initiative project. Training sessions help small-scale coffee farmers produce better quality coffee, thus helping them to secure higher prices in the international marketplace. "Sessions are based on different topics, and include practical lessons on, for example, how much fertilizer should be used to produce the best yield," explains James. The farmer trainers hold multiple sessions on agricultural best practices, helping farmers to use their equipment and run their farming practice more efficiently.
One of the key steps in monitoring and evaluating the success of training is to measure the changes in farmers' behavior. "We train approximately 12,000 farmers every year" James tells me, "and there are nearly 60 farmer trainers across the country at the moment, running courses for groups of 15 to 20 farmers at a time." There is certainly a lot of data to keep track of, and this is where FrontlineSMS proves very helpful in TechnoServe's work.
After experiencing the challenges of monitoring and evaluating their training programs using extensive paper surveys, James and the TechnoServe team decided that there must be a more efficient way. This is when they came across FrontlineSMS data collection tool, FrontlineForms. Using this tool TechnoServe farmer trainers are now able to conduct all post-training evaluation via SMS.
James explains how they manage this process: "Each farmer that attends a training session is allocated an individual ID. When filling out FrontlineForms, the farmer trainers use this ID to identify which individual farmer they are collecting data on. They answer set survey questions about farmer behavior, using a pre-defined scale of 1-10 to indicate responses. They then send them back to me in the office to analyze the data." This gives TechnoServe the data they need, to indicate whether the training has had an impact on the way the farmers manage their crops.
In addition, farmer trainers are provided with scales to measure a sample number of farmer's harvest weights. These weights are compared with the farmer's previous yield, and show how much farmers are able to produce before and after TechnoServe training courses. Collecting these kind of direct indicators of impact is key to monitoring the success of the Coffee Initiative training sessions, and FrontlineForms is allowing this data collection process to be done much more quickly, and at a lower cost to TechnoServe.
The transition from paper to SMS has made a great difference to work flows, as James explains; "it saves us so much time and money, because our field staff no longer have to travel from the field to deliver paper survey results to our office, which can be a journey of more than 1,000 kilometers."
This use of SMS technology makes the data collection process more efficient in error detection, too. As James says, "If I had picked up a potential error or if there was any data missing in a paper report then I would have to send it all the way back to the field to check whether the data needed to be edited; now I am able to this much more quickly and simply, via SMS." These efficiency savings help to demonstrate the value of using FrontlineForms as a data collection tool.
TechnoServe plans to continue using FrontlineSMS for monitoring and evaluation, and are looking at ways to optimize and extend the ways they use the software, too. "In future we are looking to use FrontlineSMS to register farmers for training sessions and track their attendance. This will allow us to provide real-time reporting from the field," explains James.

We're trying to get a better content management system in place by the start of Worlds in 2.5+ weeks.
Currently we use Wordpress to host our articles, but we haven't even taken advantage of the categories, tags, etc.
The goal is to have something up using Wordpress as a CMS to help us better cover Worlds. After
So we'd like to be able to send people to our Worlds pages and they can have the latest info there organized much better. Right now if something isn't on the homepage, it's completely lost.
I'm going to post this on some freelance sites, but it would be ideal if an LRCer wanted to do this as I think it would be beneficial if you're a runner and could understand what we're trying to accomlish.
After Worlds, we'd like to extend the CMS to better present subcategories of content on Letsrun: say sprints, college, high school,etc. The last part will be tackling the homepage.
For now, the only priority is beingable to better cover Worlds (and also say any other meet like a Diamond Leageu meet) and organize our content related to meets.
Instead of posting a bunch of requirements, I'm going to leave this open ended as if you're a runner and a designer/developer, you might know better than me the direction this goes. Experience with Wordpress as a customized CMS is best. We'll want to distinguish letsrun from non-letsrun content and organize some things by importance not chronologically.
So email me ASAP if you're interested at email@example.com. Let me know the availability you have the next 2 weeks and your past experience and what you'd charge. If you want to go ahead and outline what you see being done the next 2 weeks feel free.
|Knows the scene
Not a be so called buzzkill - but if you want this done in 2.5wks you're gonna either need: an idiot who will royally F*** everything up, or some fat stacks of cash money to throw down, like serious dough.
|marathon improving goat
I once bought a new car. Well, it wasn't new, but I just bought it, so it felt new. One door panel had been replaced, so my white car had a red door. It looked like a giant Tylenol.
As I pulled into my driveway, I saw a giant goat in the garage. I thought, "Good Grannies alive, what's that goat doing in here?" It was then that my wife stepped out of the front door and asked what was going on. I said, "There's a goat in the garage!" "A goat in the garage?" "Yeah, a goat in the garage."
Wouldn't you know it, our cat came out of the kitty door. He started going, "Meow, meow, meow!" All crazy like. Then the goat turned its attention to the cat food dish and started chowing down like a horse (well, more like a goat, really). "Meow!" Cat's still going crazy.
I thought about the situation, and decided then and there that if I ever want to PR in the marathon again, I've GOT to increase my mileage!
Hey in all seriousness can you please see about getting someone to develop the LRC iPhone app while you're at it?!?!

If I were interested I'd quote $4000 to do things the right way. That's basically $50 per hour to drop everything I am doing and help keep things in perspective for the rest of the LRC bunch. However, I am not interested in dropping everything I am doing.
I am posting to inform the minimum project worth while also grounding the overly excited user who makes contact with Wejo the first time and ends up with a verbal agreement.
Take a few deep breaths. Have the brothers put things in writing and request a down payment.

You do know the Brojos are extremely wealthy, right? Like $100 millions type wealth. Not because of this site, obviously. But they were fortunate enough to be born into the type of wealth that allowed them to do whatever they want after college--like start a running website.
|Knows the scene
Thank you, this is what I am talking about. If you want it done well, you have to pay well - people have such crazy expectations of developers.
|Carl Spackler
You might minimize the troll postings, etc., by writing up a job description with minimum and desired qualifications and ask any serious candidate to trace/map how their experience matches against these qualifications. Another idea is to have any candidate describe a Wordpress/CMS project that they were involved with that is similar to what you have in mind. I'm sure there are some professional web site developers who frequent LRC who would be interested to do this freelance.
|price floor
If you are a professional web developer working full-time how do you come up with 80 freelance hours in less than 18 days? Beyond the time constraint, wejo would prefer a community member who has already observed this place. There are people here who can "echo" a few lines of PHP that consider themselves "experienced developers" but then there are those who have at one time or another been specifically conditioned for wordpress development that know the API inside and out. Last post in thread, good luck LR.
This is laughably dumb.
|Brent W
I write software for a living. A good designer/developer will not take a task like this on such a short timeline. Keep in mind people who are good at this stuff can't work full time for 2 weeks immediately because they are already gainfully employed.
He's not trying to redesign the whole site before worlds, just get a few of the CMS features of Wordpress going.
How are the Brojos that rich? What did their parents do?
|project overview
Chicken running around with head cut off asks blind monkey for directions.
I don't think this is 2 weeks of full-time work.
Plus, developers could be between jobs, have some free time, want to take this on because they are into running, etc.
We've received quite a few good responses some from firms, some from free lancers.
Tyson Gay's in between jobs and available.
This is the problem with the damn country right now. There is no way you're going to tell me that some kid just didn't graduate from college, hasn't landed a gig in the "horrible economy" who wouldn't like to make a contribution for Letsrun and make a few bucks while he/she was doing it.
C'mon, some of you 20-somethings who have crawled back to your parents house, aren't paying back the ridiculous debt your accumulated for school, spend hours a day on this site and are whining about not finding a job that you find personally fulfilling ... jump right on in! You can dooo it mahn!
Any kid with mild technical experience probably has a job if he applied. If he hasn't, then he lacks any determination anyway. The people sitting at home found a wonderfully irrelevant major to compete in today's job market.
