David Rae had a number of hurricane Katrina-related photographs selected for the Acadiana Center for the Arts' recent Southern Open 2007 exhibit, and he asked me to pick up and hold onto a few of his photos when the exhibit ended. Can't make it to Lafayette to get the pictures right now, he said. He was going to be traveling and working in Mississippi, but he'd be back for the anniversary.
The anniversary.
His shorthand description has stayed with me. No need to mention the name or date of the event that killed 1,800 people, drove more than 200,000 people from their homes and irrevocably changed Louisiana forever. If you were affected, the anniversary is understood.
Unfortunately ' no, tragically ' it's a travesty how many people both outside and inside our state don't understand the real reasons why New Orleans was devastated on Aug. 29, and how their uninformed viewpoints have devolved into talking points that continue to chip away at Louisiana's recovery efforts.
It all started with former Republican Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert's ridiculous comment that it didn't make sense to him to spend billions of dollars rebuilding New Orleans since the city was below sea level. Hastert backtracked, of course, but the damage was done. That opinion still gets trotted out two years later on television talk shows and in letters to the editor across the country, often presented as a civil, measured, even logical argument. It's now a springboard for additional, equally insidious assertions: Why should U.S. taxpayers give money to a local and state government known for its corruption? After all, President George W. Bush has authorized $110 billion in recovery funds, and it's Louisiana's fault that the state doesn't have a recovery plan.
Pardon my French, but that's a load of merde.
A recent study by Tulane University notes that 51 percent of New Orleans is at or above sea level. And New Orleans was devastated because the levees designed and built by the federal government and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ' levees constructed so the rest of America could access the rich oil reserves that supply 30 percent of our nation's energy ' failed in the most horrific way possible. But instead of honoring his pledge to "do what it takes" and "stay as long as it takes" to help the Gulf Coast recover, the Bush administration still refuses to commit to Category 5 levee protection for the Crescent City, claiming it's too expensive.
Meanwhile, the price tag for the war in Iraq is now estimated at $1 trillion.
Yes, New Orleans has serious problems with its crime rate, leadership and education system. And New Orleans Councilman Oliver Thomas' recent guilty plea to corruption charges and Mayor Ray Nagin's beyond-idiotic statement that the high murder rate is a double-edged sword because it "keeps the New Orleans brand out there" are not helping the city's image or its recovery.
But that is no reason to let the callous, uninformed naysayers spout their nonsense about our state's recovery. Left unchecked, it spreads like a virus and inhibits the ability to see all the positive things ' especially the tireless activism and inspiring devotion to the rich cultural traditions of the Cresent City. Relentless negativity dishonors every honest, hard-working person, family and volunteer who spends their waking hours trying to rebuild one of America's greatest cities.
And what about Buras, Port Sulphur, Chalmette, Arabi, Meraux, Violet and every other community that was devastated by the storm? Like the victims of Hurricane Rita a month later, these towns and regions find themselves overshadowed by the lightning rod of New Orleans, but their struggle is no less painful, difficult or important.
As Louisiana faces continued challenges in our recovery, the anniversary is also a time to remember Acadiana's incredible response to Katrina. In the aftermath of the storm, countless volunteers' actions at the Cajundome and the relief and sheltering efforts from local nonprofits, churches, schools and businesses provided hope when it was in short supply. Despite immense hardships, our region sent a message that we can face this crisis together. Two years later, we cannot let that unity fade, and must stand together as one and continue to hold our leaders accountable as we rebuild our cities, homes and lives.
By now, the story of how longtime LSU coach Dale Brown discovered Shaquille O'Neal has been told many times: Brown happened upon a massive 13-year-old at an army base in Germany, stayed in touch with him and eventually became like a second father.
Fate simply wasn't ready to give the New Orleans Saints a break from longtime nemesis Steve Smith.

Lafayette Police have had a busy day.
Gov. Bobby Jindal's administration will use $130 million in patchwork financing from a tax amnesty program, insurance settlement, uninsured motorist penalties and other excess funds to close most of the state's midyear budget deficit.
Democratic U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu said she disagrees with President Barack Obama's actions on immigration, hoping the latest controversy doesn't worsen her campaign difficulties.
Gay-rights advocates challenging Louisiana's same-sex marriage ban announced Thursday that they have asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review their case before it is heard by a federal appeals court.
Thinking himself the "son of God," the man charged with the 2013 killing of an officer of the Chitimacha Tribal Police will not stand trial following a ruling Thursday on his mental competency.
Either Saints coach Sean Payton doesn't want to tip Baltimore off as to who'll start in New Orleans' secondary on Monday night, or he really doesn't know yet.
The Ethics Board gives the lame duck Youngsville mayor permission to offer a sweet parting gift to the community he's presided over for three terms.
The money came through a general obligation bond sale Thursday.
A legend in the Acadiana Oil Patch, Comeaux died Monday, Nov. 17.
With a growing number of alleged sexual assault victims coming out against Bill Cosby in recent weeks, upcoming projects have been canned by NBC and Netflix, but that won't affect the once-loved comedian and actor's scheduled performance in Lafayette.
The Baltimore Ravens' retooled secondary had no trouble against a rookie quarterback at home. This week, however, their task is far more challenging: stopping Drew Brees on the road in New Orleans.
Add Texas Gov. Rick Perry's name to the list of possible Republican presidential candidates flooding the campaign trail for GOP Senate candidate Bill Cassidy.
Gov. Bobby Jindal is in Florida this week with his fellow Republican governors for another gripe session aimed at their favorite target, the president, this time taking aim at his immigration plans.
Early voting for the runoff is shortened by two days because of the Thanksgiving holiday.
"Coach Don" Gagnard is running for school board. Today he offers his critique of the socioeconomic relationship between government subsidies and obesity.
Former Le Rosier chef who cooked at the James Beard House and was named one of the "Best New Chefs in America" by Food & Wine magazine in 1995 was 48.

Incoming Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is promising the new Republican majority will quickly resurrect Keystone XL pipeline legislation killed by Democrats, potentially setting up an early 2015 veto confrontation with President Barack Obama.
A national animal rights group has been rebuffed by a Baton Rouge district court judge, although the group might still get its day in court.
The administration says public college campuses won't be on the chopping block.
NOV 24 Because of a town ordinance, the police will come to a disabled girl's home this week to take away her service dog and kill him. Sound like a bad Lifetime movie? Nope - it's real life in Moreauville, blogger Lamar White Jr. tells us in this post. The dog's crime? Being born a pit bull. What's the reason for this ordinance? Well, the town fathers are a little vague on that one. Maybe Obama?
NOV 24 Columnist Stephanie Grace is writing about Bobby Jindal's continuing refusal to accept federal funding for the expansion of Medicaid. It's purely an attempt to benefit him politically, meaning the decision is "cruel, short-sighted and remarkably self-centered." Well, yeah. Have you met him?
NOV 24 The New York Times editorial board is writing about the 40 years that Albert Woodfox has spent in solitary confinement in this post, calling it "barbaric beyond measure." Since Richard Nixon was president, the man has been in solitary in Angola Plantation Penitentiary. How is that OK with us?
NOV 24 The GOP has a boogie-man for anybody thinking about voting for Mary Landrieu: President Obama. But the Dems have one for Bill Cassidy, too, Melinda Deslatte writes in this AP post on The Reading Eagle -- and his name is Governor Jindal.
NOV 24 Blogger Bob Mann is blogging about race and the Senate campaign in this post. Sure, everybody knows that Mary Landrieu doesn't do too well with white folks, but how come the GOP can't get arrested in the black community? Bob is asking.
NOV 24 Early voting for the December election began Saturday, and this post on NOLA Defender tells us what Mary and Bill were up to. The polls and the pundits have their opinions, but none of that can replace actual voting, NODEF says.
NOV 24 Blogger Tom Aswell tells us about Bruce Greenstein's grand jury testimony in this post. The former state health secretary testified in an investigation into the lucrative contract Louisiana awarded to his former employer. Apparently, Mr. Greenstein has a bit of the C.R.S. disease.
NOV 24 Last week, an SUV carrying a blended Texas family overturned on the Interstate near Shreveport, killing the parents and three of their kids, and seriously injuring two other kids. According to this story in the Dallas Morning News, the DA has exercised some compassion and dismissed the ticket given to the teen who was driving.
NOV 21 One (possible) positive from Hurricane Katrina is a comprehensive zoning ordinance for New Orleans. Nine years later, we're getting closer to that being finalized, but the current version has some problems. Here's the latest in a series of posts on The Lens in which residents give their views of the draft; this one is more amusing than most.
NOV 21 The end of the term has come for the grand jury investigating a lucrative Medicaid contract and a former state health official's ties to the company that won it, the Advocate reports here, but that doesn't mean the investigation into this stinkiness is over. There are still some things to look into, the lead prosecutor says.
NOV 21 Bobby Jindal is headed to Iowa again, the Des Moines Register reports here. The paper outlines what's going on with Bobby's non-campaign for president, and there's a lot of stuff here -- too bad none of it sounds like somebody running Louisiana. Hey, wasn't that the job he wanted?

umm what is this all about?
Anybody who can recruit me for the OM position? PM me, I can email my resume asap.
hindi naman 1day process ang recruitment.... ten yrs eh and you have to follow-up the status of ur application kapag sinabing tatawagan ka bukas ng morning keep ur line open. wag ka maniwala kc hndi sila nagsasabi ng totoo. Iibig sabihin ikaw ang tatawag hehe.... tapos wait kapa for their promised call hulaan mo kung kelan hehe... parang mamakaawa kapa tawagan ka kahit nakapasa ka.... hassle.
magkano ang offer or sahod nila for the incident controller post? ilang percent po ang night differential nila at magkano ang allowance po? may hmo at life insurance din ba sila? will they actually call if they told you to keep your lines open or is this another way of saying that you haven't passed the screening process?
nakakatawa dito yung nagiinterview na ****** sa alphaland mall, pati pag banggit ng surname ng pinoy naka'slang' pa hahaha ang pangit ng tunog mo unggoy na ******. trying hard ang mga empleyado dito mag english..wag kayo dito ang baba ng sweldo!!!
I applied last saturday here. I passed the initial interview and exam but sabi ng HR expect a call from them pero yung mga naunang nakapasa they already have schedule for final interview. Bakit ganon? So yung mga hapon nakapasa, hindi priority? ganon ba yun?
If you love your career and want a high aim for it, please dont even try nor intent to get-in in this company. Some people say, it doesnt matter about the big pay as long as you are happy with the environment you are in. But not here, not in this company.
Once you get in, you'll be in shackled in a "ball and chain" situation. Which means there's no turning back. Why?
Non-Compete Agreement
Which means you cannot work within any line of business (in this case BPO) that this company have for 1 year after your cessation (discontinue) of employment in this company.
Cash Bond
It varies per contract or per program that you will be in for the company. They may give a gravity of 50,000php - 75,000php for the employee's cash bond during the duration of 1 complete working year.
Now think twice...
I already signed their employment offer. And then wait for their call/sms na naman daw. Prolly mga gano katagal kaya ako mag aantay? wala kasi silang specific date kung kelan ako babalik dun. Serry, im sooo ignorant regarding this matter. Its going to be my first job kasi. Mahirap ba training???
Thanks sa mga magrereply.
anyone working on this company??
any feedback po?
dude please read
ok naman dyan..hr are nice,i love them.the people in alphaland are nice people and if you'll be recruited on that site good for you,it's one of the most prominent accts pero bad pa din kasi headache but then san ba hindi?
salary?depende sa experience yan at kung gaano ka kagaling makipagbargain o makipag-usap sa interviewer usually 12k-15k lang though.
ambilis nga mahire sa company na 'to ee. kadalasan kase basta pag sinabe ng HR na tatawagan kana lang nila eventhough 2nd interview na, meaning di kana pasa based on experience lang naman po
sigh... nag-aantay pa din ako ng balita from them regarding the post that i've applied for. all i got from them is they're still waiting for the client's confirmation regarding the start dates, etc... i got a feeling that they could just be wasting our time...
saan ba operations nito sa alphaland sa magallanes? or sa bpi building??? -ayoko sa bpi building (panget food, panget ambiance, creepy comfort rooms) -ex-epmax employee here (way..way back).

Lexmark T650DN mono workgroup laser printer
The more people using a printer, the bigger it has to be, if only to hold extra paper. In fact, workgroup printers seem to have to be big simply to impress more people. Lexmark's T650DN starts large and is eminently expandable, so will only get larger. Lexmark T650DN Lexmark's T650DN: a big printer, but quick and cheap to run …
Regarding being big, it was erroneously suggested that is bad.
Bigger size, even if all else were equal which it seldom is, is a very desirable thing.
Bigger means lesser size limitations for gears, springs, plastic tabs, fuser heat dissipation, drum and cartridge size, etc, etc. Smaller means higher heat density, tighter paper path,
In other words, only a stupid fool thinks smaller is better unless it's on an airplane or in some economized oriental hotel slat. This printer was not designed to fit within your back pocket wearing spandex jeans, it was designed to do well as a printer.
Do realize I am not shilling Lexmark, I would rather buy from most other manufacturers than those toner and ink whoring bassturds, but at the same time we need to stop perpetuating the idiotic idea that smaller is better unless you live in a shoebox.
Smaller is never better when it comes to anything mechanical, if all else is equal then smaller is always, always, a negative thing. Especially so when talking about a 2nd element, how much paper will bend in the printer before it remains permanently more curled that you wanted a flat piece of paper to be.
If you want some small cheap junk printer by all means buy one. If you want something not so problematic, you want the largest size per dollar you can find. Per page printing cost is another story, subject to more than one variable like toner capacity, cost whether the drum is integral or not, whether a cartridge is user-refillable, etc.
These things weren't mentioned though, my comment is only addressing detrimental ideal that we are supposed to want smaller as if it is good when it is exactly the problem and thing to avoid.
Paris, because even if you don't live in Texas, smaller is less of a good thing more often than not.
@JC Small is Beautiful
So, we should all drive buses 'cos there's more room for the engines, should we? Every office has space constraints and, particularly if a printer is to be positioned on a desk, the space it takes up is an important consideration.
Engineering something small may put more contraint on the designer, but there's no intrinsic reason why a smaller printer should be less reliable. The reliability indexes for all the major laser manufacturers are very similar, so companies that are building smaller machines aren't suffering from service-life issues.
As for a bigger printer keeping the paper flatter, that's hogwash. The designed temperature and pressure used in the fuser is by far the biggest factor in paper curl. Whether a machine uses a 'U'-shaped or 'S'-shaped paper path governs the tighness of turns in the paper path much more than the size of the case.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Nominations sought for 2012 6th District Difference Makers AwardJanuary 4, 2013 // 0 Comments
Alderwoman Milele A. Coggs established the 6th District Difference Maker Award to recognize those residents who work diligently to improve and strengthen the quality of life for themselves, their neighborhood and the City of Milwaukee.
She is now seeking nominations for the 2012 6th District Difference Makers Award.
Nominees should be residents of the 6th Aldermanic District who have contributed to making their neighborhood a better place. Nomination forms are available online at Alderwoman Coggs's website (milwaukee.gov/district6), or by calling the Alderwoman's office at 286-2994 to receive a hard copy of the form by mail. "The 6th District is composed of some of Milwaukee's best and most unique neighborhoods," Alderwoman Coggs said. "It is residents who strengthen the fabric of a neighborhood, and each resident has an opportunity to contribute. But there are those who go above and beyond in their works and deeds to help others and the community in which they live, they are the Difference Makers."
Nominations for the 6th District Difference Maker Award will be accepted from now until January 24th. Alderwoman Coggs will be selecting six honorees, the names of which will be announced at the January 2013 6th District Town Hall meeting on Wednesday, January 30 at 5:30 p.m. in the Martin Luther King Library, 310 W. Locust St.

A little off the beaten track at the end of the Blackrock Market, Fish Shop provides beautifully fresh fish and chips to the people of South Dublin. The whole operation is contained in a little wooden chalet, where Peter and Jumoke make everything from scratch each morning, using the skills they picked up on the London street food circuit.
The menu varies according to what fish has been caught that morning, with specials announced each day on their Facebook page. Mussels al ajillo feature regularly, along with different beer battered white fish like hake, haddock and plaice. My personal favourite is the filet o'fish shop burger. They also serve gluten free fish and chips (a big plus given Ireland's huge rate of coaliac disease).
The fish is served up along with lovely traditional Irish chipper style chips, and homemade tartare sauce. Everything is fresh, reasonably priced and tasty, without leaving the customary greasy feel that a lot of fish and chips can leave you with. You can eat on the gorgeous mini deck outside the chalet, or take it away for a picnic on the seafront. Perfect for a sunny day. They are due to open a second branch in Smithfield in early 2015.

This is our second stay at Villa Adeste & we just love it! When we arrived yesterday it felt like we were coming back to our own home away from home. If we could afford a house of our own on St John this would be it. First, the view is absolutely spectacular! The house & the wrap around porches were definitely constructed to maximize the view. Second the house is extremely casual & comfortable with just the perfect amount of elegant touches, like the absolutely huge marble shower in the master bath. The kitchen and inside living area face the gorgeous view so whether inside or outside you can enjoy the panorama. One particular note about renting on St John is that in many cases to get a view like this you have to take a hair raising drive up very hills & driveways that are in a number of cases unpaved. Adeste is on a paved road that is very drivable & once you reach it the driveway itself is flat, definitely something to consider when choosing a rental. The house is two story with a master up & two additional en suite masters down. The first time we came we were with another couple so we stayed up & they stayed down, which offered great privacy as well as similar master suite conveniences. We are by ourselves this time so we've only needed the top floor. It has been very windy on St. John since we got here & it has been delightful to be able to sleep without air conditioning enjoying the sounds of the island & the magnificent breeze. The bed is extremely comfortable & we just love the porch furniture, new since we were last here. We highly recommend St John. It is our favorite beach vacation spot. Villa Adeste is a short drive from the many spectacular beaches here. We'll come back to Adeste again and again. On our last trip to st John we waited too late to book & Adeste was not available. While we rented another nice house a short drive away we really missed being at Adeste. The owners Chris & Charlie are just great to work with. When we contacted them about renting again we felt like they were old friends welcoming us back.
Just Perfect!
My husband and I stayed here for a week in October and couldn't have been happier. We were looking for a romantic getaway to celebrate our 25th Anniversary and Into the Mystic was just perfect! The villa has everything you need and the view is spectacular. We truly enjoyed having the pool, hot tub, and outdoor shower. The bed is so comfortable, too. We definitely recommend renting Into the Mystic - you won't be disappointed. We didn't want to leave.... Thanks so much Sharon!
Villa Solemare is not something one can simply describe in words! We climbed a steep terrane, the gates opened and we walked down a set of sculpted stairs to a view that was unreal. My husband and I actually had tears in our eyes as we stood in utter awe of the Villa. Beautifully maintained and meticulously clean, Bob our caretaker gave us the tour and was there to answer every question and fulfill any possible need. The villa has a beautiful flow, that is both cozy and inviting while capitalizing on the views of the British Virgin Islands in the distance. The kitchen features a six burner stove and for those who love to cook, as I do, found it to be a conversational area while being efficient. The cacophony of island/jungle noises at night were an absolute delight! The description of the villa is however, inaccurate, it is beyond what pictures and verbiage can communicate--it is something that one has to see for themselves! We look forward to visiting again and again....Villa Solemare is truly paradise on earth!

Sunrise Chef: Tracey Mathews
Updated On: Nov 08 2013 10:56:07 AM CST
Tracey Mathews is the owner of Trixie's Treats truck, a mobile bake shop driving the streets of the Lehigh Valley. The treats are all baked in the morning and then driven around Allentown.
Pumpkin Mousse topped with Mascarpone Whipped Cream
Pumpkin Mousse
1 15 oz can pumpkin
3 cups heavy cream
3/4 sugar
1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie Spice
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
Combine pumpkin, 1 cup cream and sugar in a medium saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes. Cool fully.
Whip the remaining cream and vanilla into soft peaks and fold into cooled pumpkin mixture. Refrigerate until the topping is ready.
Mascarpone Whipped Cream
1 cup heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla
8 oz mascarpone cheese, room temperature
1/2 confectioner's sugar, sifted
Beat heavy cream and vanilla on medium speed until stiff peaks form. (Do not over beat or it will be grainy)
In another bowl, whisk together mascarpone and confectioner's sugar until smooth.
Gently fold whipped cream into mascarpone mixture until completely incorporated. Use immediately.
Mousse can be served in dishes (yielding 8-10 servings) or phyllo cups (yielding several dozen bite size treats).
Top each serving of mousse with a dollop of the mascarpone whipped cream.
Toppings can include candied pecans or crumbled up ginger snaps!
Caramel Apple Dip
1 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup confectioner's sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1/2-2/3 cup Heath or Skor bits
Combine all ingredients with mixer until just combined. Serve with apple wedges!
White Chocolate Peppermint Bark Cheesecake
2 cups cookie crumbs (about 24 Oreos crushed)
3 Tbsp melted butter
3- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
1 cup sugar
4 oz white chocolate (melted)
1 1/2 Tbsp flour
1 1/2 Tbsp heavy cream
2 tsp peppermint extract
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups peppermint bark diced up**
2 cups Cool Whip
Peppermint pieces
Spread crust mixture in bottom of springform pan using a spoon to press firmly into pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes, then set aside.
Reduce temperature to 325.
Melt the white chocolate.
Beat the cream cheese and sugar. Add the melted chocolate, flour, whipping cream, and peppermint extract. Be sure to scrape the sides of the bowl after you add each ingredient. Add eggs one at a time, again scraping bowl after each. Add peppermint bark pieces and stir by hand.
Place baked cookie crust into a larger pan. Pour filling into crust. Add enough hot water to fill halfway up the sides of your springform pan. Carefully place in the center of the oven and bake at 325 for 1 hour. Turn off the oven. Keeping the door shut, continue to bake another 45 minutes. Remove from oven and let it sit for at least one hour before refrigerating.
Chill 4-6 hours or preferably, overnight.
Before serving, spread Cool Whip evenly on top of cheesecake and sprinkle with peppermint pieces. Store covered in fridge.
**If opting to make the peppermint bark from scratch, melt 4 oz dark chocolate and spread on wax papered cookie sheet. Refrigerate. Melt 4 oz white chocolate and spread over top cooled dark layer. Top immediately with crushed peppermint candy. Refrigerate. When cooled. Break into chunks. Store in airtight container and the peppermint flavor will absorb into the chocolate.

Wow! No comments, what if the victims were white? Would anyone care then?
Like I said, less racism, less crime!
I think there should be a "no-racism" day, I wonder if the world would be a better place? Of course it would, but too many people want to hold onto the "we're better than everyone else" to see what happens!

Very good food, the usual breakfast fare. Service was good, hard to know what to do the first time you visit. A lot of regular customers. Limited seating.
I've been for a quick lunch several times....but it's nothing special. They really aren't very friendly but it's the only place to get a sandwich around...unless you want sit down.
I dropped in for breakfast because the Trip Advisor review is a 5
I had scrambled eggs, sausage, hash browns, and an english muffin.
The eggs had whites in several places, the hash browns were greasy, the muffin whimpy but the lone piece of sausage tasty.
I LOVE this place! It is a funky little old a-frame building with the bathrooms around back! But the food and service is amazing! It is often hard to get a seat in the little dining room, because so many people know about it! This place reminds me of an old drug-store counter where you order something just the way...
Always great food and service for a hole in the wall. Dependable and good. Great place for a lunch on a weekend when out shopping. Or to take home for later.
A great small local restaurant with a great breakfast and they make wonderful hamburgers. Speaking as a Dairy allergy person, they can provide for me because they cook fresh on the spot.

"Twilight Saga's" Chaske Spencer – who plays wolf pack leader Sam Ulrey – is opening up about his past struggles with drugs and alcohol – something the actor says he blew millions on and which almost cost him his life.
"I tasted my first drink at 15," Chaske, who grew up on numerous Native American reservations around the country, recently told People. "It took about three cans of beer to get drunk, and that was it. I was sold. I thought, 'This is the best thing ever.' My Parents were starting to separate at the time, so I was very angry."
At 21, the he moved to New York to study acting, where he was first exposed to cocaine.
"Next thing I know, my heart's pounding, and I'm up all night. I think I'm gonna die, but I still did it again and again," he recalled to People, explaining that he was then introduced to heroin through a girlfriend. "I started smoking it, then snorting it. Three months in, I was doing it every day. I'd never memorize my lines; I couldn't function to audition. My work ethic went out the door."
After multiple attempts to stop, Chaske was arrested after attempting to buy marijuana from two undercover cops and he landed behind bars. After getting out of jail, he sought help at a rehab center in Washington state that specialized in treating Native Americans.
"It was appealing to me because I came from the same experiences and I could relate to a lot [of the other people seeking treatment].They had us make a list of how much you'd spent on drugs. I'd blow $2 million," the 35-year-old actor told the mag.
After just one year of staying clean, Chaske landed his role in "New Moon."
"I got pretty tight with the wolf guys. I took each of them aside and told them I'm an addict and an alcoholic and that's why I don't drink," he explained.

Plans for new Vestas headquarters on hold
Send this to a friend
Wind turbine giant Vestas Wind Systems A/S on Tuesday said it has slowed its plans to build a new 600,000-square-foot North American headquarters in Portland.
A dearth of activity in capital markets has pushed back ambitious plans to break ground this year, said Roby Roberts, senior vice president of external relations for Vestas Americas, the Danish company's North American arm.
"We were going to break ground some time this year, but I don't think we're going to get that done," Roberts said. "We're still committed to (the project), we're still moving forward. We're not going at the same pace as before and most of that is the way the capital markets are performing. There's not much money you can stick into real estate."
In December, the company, which already hosts a North American headquarters in Portland spread across several buildings, announced plans to consolidate its local operations in a yet-to-be-built headquarters facility, likely in the South Waterfront.
The city and state offered an incentive package totaling about $31.5 million for the project.
Roberts said the company is still considering several properties, with much of its focus on the South Waterfront, and remains in talks with several players, from architects to state and city officials.
Vestas CEO Ditlev Engel in late February told the Portland Business Journal that the company's first-quarter results would determine the company's future capital expenses, including the Portland project.
The results came in Tuesday: Revenue jumped 58 percent to $1.4 billion with after-tax profits climbing 70 percent to $73 million. Shipments of wind turbines are up 21 percent.

A television-manufacturing joint venture between France's Thomson SA and China's TCL International Holdings Ltd. and will produce 20 million TVs by year-end, resulting in U.S. $4 billion in revenue, a top executive said.
Charls Zhao, CEO of the venture, TTE Corp., made the forecast at a ceremony on July 29 formally establishing the venture.
The Chinese company agreed last year to buy most of Thomson's loss-making television operations as well as its DVD player business. TCL owns 67 percent of the joint venture and Thomson the other 33 percent.
Based on 2003 operational figures of TCL and Thomson, TTE would have combined TV sales of 18.5 million units and revenue of about EUR 3 billion (approx. U.S.$ ). Its market share in Europe, the U.S., and China would be 8 percent, 12 percent, and 19 percent, respectively.
Thomson Li, chairman of TCL International and TTE, said the joint venture will aim to maintain its market share in China of around 20 percent in the coming years, with expectations of expanding market share in Europe and the U.S. to around 15 percent to 20 percent. He didn't give a time frame for achieving such targets.
TTE will begin operations in August. The two joint venture partners aim to break even within the next 18 months in North America and Europe. (Dow Jones)

Squidz, the way the IR slot works is a player has to be on IR in the actual NFL to use it. See all those players who have "IR" as their status? Those are the players we could use on our IR slots.
It's not like we could put someone like Pierre Garcon, who has merely been out consistently, on IR, because he is not actually on IR.
So I think 5 bench + IR is easily a reasonable way to do the roster next year if we go with 1 16 team league.
Also if we do two 10 team leagues, I would say: QB, WR1, WR2, WR3, RB1, RB2, TE, W/R/T Flex, K, Def, 6 bench, IR.
And I think if were leaving the door open to possibly do two leagues next year, we should probably disallow any draft pick trades at this point, because how the hell would that work if someone who makes it to the A league trades a pick to someone who ends up in the B league?

Baby born in parking lot after bomb threat
Updated On: Jul 09 2013 09:23:12 AM CDT
An Alabama woman gave birth in a hospital's parking lot after a bomb threat forced an evacuation.
Tessa Kilgore was in active labor at Walker Baptist Medical Center in Jasper when the threat was called in to 911 on Friday, according to the Daily Mountain Eagle.
Hospital staff covered her in blankets and took her outside, where she gave birth to a baby girl, Kylie, 30 minutes later.
"It was just crazy," the 21-year-old Kilgore told the Daily Mountain Eagle. "By the time she was born, I?didn't care who was around and watching."
An ambulance whisked Kilgore and her baby to a nearby medical facility, where both are doing fine.
"Certain things can't be planned all the time. Birth is one of them,"? Dr. LoRissia Autery told the Daily Mountain Eagle.
Kilgore gave birth underneath an oak tree in the parking lot.
A pink ribbon now decorates the tree with a tag attached that reads "Tree of Life," Birmingham TV station WIAT reported.
It also has the baby's name and the day she was born written on it. Family members hope to have Kylie's first birthday party there.

Sponsored Video: Motorola RAZR i with Intel Inside UK Commercial (video/sponsored)
Wouldn't it be nice to have a phone built-in to your hand? If you've seen the newest "Total Recall" movie, then you know what we're talking about. Unfortunately, we're about 50 years out from embedding smart devices into our body, at least ones with that level of functionality. However, there is an option that is arguably comparable.
The Motorola RAZR i sports a remarkably awesome edge-to-edge 4.3-inch SUPER AMOLED display, which when held in your hand, is something analogous to having it embedded directly into your palm. A stretching of the truth, yes, but you get our point. Nevertheless, your viewing experience won't be impeded upon by a set of thick, black bars, as seen in some other phones.
But this isn't the only redeeming feature of the RAZR i. Under the hood is a snappy Intel Atom Z2460 processor clocked at 2GHz, which should keep things humming along smoothly. Other features include 8GB of storage (expandable via a microSD card slot), 1GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel camera capable of capturing full HD video, and a 2,000 mAh battery all stuffed inside a Kevlar coated (for added durability) 8.3mm thin body.
The RAZR i should start shipping (with Android 4.04) in the UK on October 1st.

Columbia man accused in baby death waives right to appear
Updated On: May 14 2014 02:20:49 PM CDT
A Columbia man charged with second degree murder in the death of an 8-month-old baby girl waived his right to appear in court Wednesday.
Cody Baker was arrested on February 28th after his girlfriend's baby daughter was found unresponsive and later died at the hospital.
Baker's girlfriend, Anna Steele, is charged with second degree murder in her daughter's death.
According to court documents, her bond was lowered from $1 million to $250,000 on Monday. Steele only had to pay 10 percent of that to bond out in April.
She was released on house arrest, with documents showing she is not allowed to leave without permission, must wear a GPS tracking bracelet, cannot consume or possess intoxicants, and cannot come into contact with anyone under 17.
Columbia Police found items soaked with fresh blood, and an autopsy revealed the baby suffered a massive blunt trauma to the head as well as showed signs of being shaken.
Steele allegedly told police she thought Baker was a threat to the baby after the baby was found with a bruise on the cheek two weeks before the death.
Baker is scheduled to be back in court on May 19th.

A diverting mix of insight and spectacle, human and superhuman. This machine is built for kids, but rarely do words like "noble," "Hollywood" and "rawkin'" all apply to one movie.
The fantastic and at times deliciously nihilistic world of X2 is fully, believably three-dimensional.
An altogether more viscerally engaging film, from its relentless pacing and slam-bang effects work to the fine, appropriately heroic score by John Ottman. That the movie has an obvious gay subtext neither adds nor detracts from the films smashing popcorn appeal.
One of the things that makes this movie such a great rush is that while youre watching it, it seems a good deal more subversive than it really is.
Captures the feel of a first-rate comic book. It puts the pop back into Pop Art: It blows viewers away with a blast of kinetic energy.
A follow-up with as much artistic integrity, complexity, humor and well-designed action as the original.
It also boosts the punch of the movie that so many of its action scenes evoke the Iraqi War news footage of the past month, and the "X-Men" premise -- people persecuted because their difference makes them seem threatening -- carries even more relevancy and weight than it did three years ago.
Directed with depth, efficiency, and wit by Bryan Singer, the film suffered only from a tendency to seem like a setup for an even bigger movie...Fortunately, bigger usually equals better here, and when it doesn't, it equals just as good.
Brisk and involving with a streamlined forward propulsion, it's the kind of superhero movie we want if we have to have superhero movies at all.
My chief complaint is that these mutants are a little--well, vanilla. I wish the X-Men had a touch of kinkiness to go with their weird abilities.
About twice as good as the original...bigger and more ambitious in every respect, from its action and visceral qualities to its themes.
A summer firecracker. It's also a tribute to outcasts -- teens, gays, minorities, even Dixie Chicks. It's not without thought or feeling, except when its mind gets bent by the gods of box office. Then it's craven and empty.
Perhaps in the next generation a mutant will appear named Scribbler, who can write a better screenplay for them.
This movie lets the characters and tropes borrowed from the original Stan Lee comic live and breathe.
A sleek, rousing contraption, a comic-book movie with a sense of playfulness, a welcome streak of humor and just the right touch of gravity.
As irresistible as movie-theater popcorn - a lavish, reasonably intelligent, well-acted sequel with kick-butt effects that outdoes its predecessor, 2000's "X-Men," in almost every department.
As it is, most of X2's action is restricted to the Northeast Corridor, with a climactic face-off in the western Rockies, where, in typical blockbuster fashion, everything goes kablooey and ka-bam.
Visually, X2 is a sight to behold, with impressive special effects and a dynamic sense of place.
In some ways, X2 is an obvious improvement on its predecessor: It looks more expensive, and its special effects seem to swoop out of nowhere...But "X-Men" was undoubtedly the most elegiac comic-book adaptation of the past few years.
Mr. Singer and his collaborators grasp that comic books, for all their obligatory fights and explosions, are at bottom about their brave, troubled, impossibly muscled characters.
Wants to contain multitudes -- high ideals and high tech, the poignant and the silly. Doing so, it becomes a lexicon of modern filmmaking. It could be its own creature: Super-Generico. That's not the worst thing for a movie to be, but it's not quite Marvel-ous either.
As in the first movie, Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart are trotted out periodically to add a little gravitas.
An engaging spectacle of energy and special effects built around a doomy mood and an ensemble cast vigorously pursuing a story line that isn't nearly as snazzy as the dressing.
A substantial improvement over "X-Men," in many ways, especially in visual and specialeffects departments.
The longer the movie goes, the more its 133 minutes prove wearing. The story tries to develop a love angle between Jackman and Janssen, but it doesn't begin to take. And the finale is particularly weak.
It's scenic, confidently directed and performed, dutiful, faithful, revelatory, informative, and largely involving. Rarely, however, is it any fun.
There's a continuing delicacy to [Singer's] direction that gives the audience room to breathe and reason to linger. This may not be a grownup movie but -- unlike the Star Wars franchise or the Batman sequels -- it is a movie that grownups can watch minus the requisite bottle of Excedrin.
