My child is very happy and loves going to school! Supportive and caring community. Excellent communication and academically challenging.
My daughter is receiving an excellent, well-rounded education at St. Johns. It is small enough that she receives individualized attention in a supportive, enthusiastic and caring environment but big enough to give her wonderful opportunities for growth. The academics are outstanding. She is performing well above grade level. Class sizes are small and teachers are well-prepared. Technology is utlized extensively throughout the school. The communication from the teachers is thorough and timely. We have been there 3 years and have experienced no turnover among teachers or administrators. An education of this caliber would cost thousands of dollars more elsewhere.
Our children have been enrolled at St Johns for two years now in the ELC and cannot say enough wonderful things about the school, its teachers and the entire community. If you're looking for a place where your children can feel safe, nurtured and challenged academically all in a loving environment then St. Johns is worth a look. There is no greater feeling for a parent than knowing that while you cannot be with them they are in the most trusted of hands. We love St. Johns!!!
Walk through the halls of St. John's during a school day and you will feel the nurturing, caring environment that exists there. Our children LOVE going to school! They are reading books well above grade level. They are filled with an excitement for life, love, friendship and learning. We've had our children in other schools prior to enrolling them in St. John's, so this is written with much school experience (private and public). In the 2012 Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS) St. John s tested in the 97th percentile nationally! But, St. John s goes beyond teaching subjects; this school, inside and out, is filled with love, compassion, generosity and integrity.
My daughter is in the first grade and we love it. The teachers are really caring and the curriculum while challenging is age appropriate. Sometimes it is difficult to get all the work in on time, but her teacher is really understanding and helpful. They do ask for a parents to be involved, but they understand that it has to work around your life so they give you lots of different ways to do it.
St. John's has been a great place for my kids in both the Early Leaning Center (18 months old-Pre-K) and elementary school (grade K-8). The Lutheran foundation coupled with the full breadth of academic subjects (including music, art, computers, spanish, reading, and others) has provided my kids with a well-rounded educational environment. We have appreciated the small classroom sizes as well! I always highly recommend St. John's Lutheran School to anyone with children from the age of 18 months to 8th grade.
The only weakness i can spot is lack of extra-curricular activities for the younger students. Otherwise, our experience has been fantastic! Truly a nurturing and loving environment based on a faith-focused education. Our daughter is reading at levels 3-4 grades above her current grade, wonderful! And the Iowa test scores for the entire school...can't get much better!!!
St. John's offers a fantastic educational experience, paying attention to all aspects of a student's development. Our child has not just excelled academically but she has acquired a strong sense of who she is and how to best relate to others. We are thrilled with the wonderful young woman St. John's is helping us develop. You cannot find a better Christian education in Denver!
Excellent academics, strong community, real attention to individual learning styles and developmental goals. The teachers provide regular feedback on student progress and are very available. The curriculum is excellent. The children receive strong values education and guidance in conflict resolution and leadership skills. St. John's is a caring place with strong leadership.
We were very sad to have left St. Johns but could not handle the disruptions. It is amazing how much happier our son is at his new school!
We recently pulled our child from the school...... too much disruption with teachers leaving. The difference in ambiance and energy at her new school struck us immediately and we now get daily reports about her activities, something we were not receiving at St John's. She also has connected with 2 other classmates from St John's!
Excellent School!!! I have been a public educator for the last 17 years and have a pretty good idea of what really goes on in both private and public education. I chose St. John's after looking into many other schools for my children. St. Johns puts a strong emphasis on academics, values, and moral teachings. Something I can't accomplish as a teacher in morally relativistic public setting. My kids love school, there is strong parent involvement and a very caring staff.
Excellent academics & a real passion for learning. The staff at St. John's expects excellence and works with the students and parents to ensure all children reach their fullest potential. Respect for elders & authority is not only taught, but required. St. John's offers a safe and stable learning environment for all. Solid values are modeled. A top notch primary education is offered at this institution.

- Sedona FavoriteOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 11/21/2014The menu is a masterpiece, the wait staff very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Our evening was lovely throughout dinner until dessert when 2 tables away a young couple arrived with infant twins in a huge stroller. The twins were not happy and quickly let those in proximity know they were not happy. This is not a restaurant that is conducive to babies at 9P on a Saturday evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dinner at L'AubergeGlennDined on 11/21/2014We celebrated my wife's birthday at L'Auberge. Seated promptly, service was great, food was tremendous, ambiance perfect. They were out of the first wine I ordered but that was the only flaw.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best in the area by farBennyCPADined on 11/13/2014Dining Creekside was a great setting and use of table side propane heaters made it very comfortable even outside at night in November. The service was superb, wine list remarkable and food excellent. By far the best fine dining experience in the area.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Don't miss while in SedonaRonDVIPDined on 11/13/2014One of the most romantic and spectacular settings you will find anywhere. Definitely worth the price in Sedona. Quality of the food was very solid, although my filet mignon was nothing more than average in both size and quality... ordered medium rare but delivered medium well. (but the bernaise sauce was outstanding). Limited wine selection by the glass for a restaurant of this caliber, but managed to find a good one. Outstanding service from start to finish... the parking valet wouldn't even accept a tip!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nature's amazing setting and food to match itPvblueVIPDined on 11/11/2014The lovely creek, rustling trees, aroma of wood fires are spectacular, and the food and service are a perfect match. The flavors and presentation are skillful, delicious, impressive, we were so fortunate to have picked this place for our 25th anniversary! Our dishes: dungenness crab crepe, goat creme salad (amazing!!) sunchoke soup (those sweet morsels of lobster!!), red snapper, perfect creme brulee...and a bottle of Amaronne...A memorable night!.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- So lovely!OpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 11/8/2014We were pleasantly surprised by how serene and lovely the patio dining is. Feels very intimate and private and not at all noisy. The food was amazing. The service was very good and the pace of the meal was perfect.Special Features:
- SereneOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 11/7/2014Beautiful location right next to a lovely stream under cottonwoods and sycamore trees that were turning autumn colors.. Impeccable service, very attentative waiter, great food!Special Features:
- As Breathtaking as All SedonaeyedocmikeDined on 11/6/2014A tremendous splurge right at The Oak Creek of Sedona. Finding it at 'The Y' may be a bit challenging at first, but worth any effort. Fine, romantic ding at its best. AND, the wives LOVED IT! So, what's not to like? If it's a budget evening, pass this one, but for that special occasion (like just existing in Sedona!), please go here. Service & friendliness sincere. 5 stars.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- WonderfulJudieDined on 11/5/2014The setting was breathtaking beside that sparkling stream...the food and wine amazing...the service was great!Special Features:
- Perfect for special occasionJudyDined on 11/2/2014It was my 70th birthday and this was the perfect treat The food and ambiance couldn't be better The bisque was especially deliciousSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DeliciousKojakDined on 11/1/2014We wanted a nice quiet place to celebrate day 1 of me stopping smoking. My wife choose Tier 1 seating right next to the creek and we had a wonderful, delicious, 3 course meal. My steak was like butter and my wife says her Duck was excellent. It was a bit cool by the water but there were plenty of heaters so we were both very comfortable. Our service was impeccable. Everything was cleared off right away. This is an excellent outing for any occasion but so very romantic. A must if you are staying in Sedona.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- It is BLISS!gmfoodieDined on 11/1/2014Sedona is a beautiful destination place where I always enjoy bringing my out-of- town guests. Within this gorgeous place is another destination worthy of any occasion. My guests always gasp when they see how beautiful it is particularly out on the terrace. The way the sun filters through the trees and the creek provides background sound it is bliss. Just when you think you have arrived in heaven the food enhances all the senses. It never fails to delight. Add a glass of wine from the great choices provided and you'll never want to leave!!! Service is excellent and they never rush you out. Be sure you take photos so you and your guests can always bring themselves back to this wonderful and memorable gem. Don't wait for guests!Special Features:
- Great eveningAnneVIPDined on 10/30/2014Great food, great service, great venue (sitting next to the creek!), a great evening overall.Special Features:
- Disappointed and expensiveLindaDined on 10/29/2014Food was disappointing. Chef tried too hard and the flavors just did not work. The setting was lovely, the service excellent but overall, merely pretentious and overpriced.Special Features:
- L'Auberge11Dutch11Dined on 10/26/2014L'Auberge Champaigne Brunch is simply amazing and worth every penny. The food is top notch and the view is unbeatable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Limited menoOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 10/25/2014Please was awesome. However, due to a large wedding the menu was price fixed and very limited. I wish I knew this when I set up reservation. I would have made it for another time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- WonderfulsavadogDined on 10/25/2014Chose this restaurant because I thought it was related to the one in Napa and have had excellent experiences there. Although not related the food was as good, the service was as good, the ambiance creek side was better! Sedona is beautiful and L'Auberge made the experience even more wonderful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Beautiful!!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 10/23/2014A beautiful outdoor setting by a scenic creek and FANTASTIC food! What more could anyone want?? A++++++Special Features:
- AwesomegastromanVIPDined on 10/22/2014One of the best dining experiences ever. Ask for a table beside the creek. Food was exceptional.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- incrediblesyninlvDined on 10/20/2014This is a must if visiting Sedona. Incredibly smart, amazing, well thought out food. The service was superb and staff was extremely knowledgeable. Ambiance of being on the river is just a added bonus to dining here.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Real TreatMomOnTheGoDined on 10/19/2014Pricey but worth it. I took another reviewers advice and asked for a table by the stream. We had the perfect setting and a heater nearby so you weren't cold in the cooler Sedona evenings.Special Features:
- Get a table by the creekNYfoodieDined on 10/19/2014Simply amazing. A steep price for brunch, but you won't need to eat for the rest of the day.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Quiet sanctuaryRedRockOasisVIPDined on 10/19/2014After seeing red everywhere, sitting by the creek shaded by leafy trees are a welcomed visual break. The setting is absolutely serene - with the sound of the babbling creek and an occasional quack from the resident ducks, it is a nice relaxing way to have Sunday brunch. The service is absolutely fantastic - with your beverage glass never sitting empty for more than a few minutes. The brunch selection is more of less standard for a higher end brunch, but everything is tasty - from the raw bar to the cooked foods. Homemade sausage and maple-cured bacon is a must for those who love breakfast meats. Price for the brunch is a bit high but given the atmosphere and go-at-your-own-pace dining, well worth it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/19/2014I spent the morning of my 40th birthday at your restaurant and it was a lovely way to start the day! Lovely champagne brunch and thankfully the rain stopped in time for us to sit outside.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lovely BrunchSophieCocoDined on 10/19/2014We had another fabulous champagne brunch! It had rained the night before so we ate on the verandah, we have a second home in Sedona and try to visit this restaurant for Brunch each time we are here!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lovely dinner on the creek.WMeeVIPDined on 10/18/2014My wife and I booked an early table on the creek to see the water and the birds - not a good day for birds but still beautiful. We both had three courses. I had wine with mine. My only complaint was that the first course of Hudson Valley Foie was miniscule (actually a moose). The server said it was a new preparation. She credited the wine and tea we had with desert. (She said the credit was also because we were celebrating a deferred anniversary.) For second courses my wife had lamb loin and I had venison. Both perfectly cooked.Special Features:
- Dinner at l'aubergeDcljDined on 10/16/2014We had an excellent meal in a great environment. Creek side at L'Auberge in October was perfect. Food outstanding as well as the service. Pricey, but worth it!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best fine dining in SedonaoptikVIPDined on 10/16/2014L'Auberge is the best restaurant in Sedona for people who appreciate fine dining. The creek side dining is unique, the food is superb, the service is the way it should be in an upscale restaurant. If I had to come up with a mild critique that would be the desert; they were "only" very good (not outstanding, like everything else).Special Features:
- Terrific dining beautiful settingKMarkDined on 10/15/2014Wonderful setting; very professional staff; delicious food - well presented and well prepared. Great place for our special anniversary dinner. Despite running late the staff went out of their way to be accommodating. Carpaccio was a work of art with plenty of wonderful taste surprises.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 10/13/2014Lovely meal in a spectacular setting. Excellent service - they remembered and graciously celebrated my wife's birthday with a special dessert.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great DiningIntegrity36Dined on 10/13/2014We were seated right away within sound of the nearby stream and presented with the extensive wine list. We opted for the three course dinner and were soon served the first course, we both had the crab crepes. The second course was a salad and the third course for me was a salmon. The service was very attentive and efficient. The evening was cool, but the heat lamps were adequate and we were very comfortable. The food and its presentation were excellent. We had a surprise as we departed when our car was brought out and we attempted to give a tip. We were told that parking accommodations were included and they would accept no tip. If we are ever in the area, we will return for dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful dinner on Oak Creek!JAMaudeVIPDined on 10/12/2014Dinner at L'Auberge was one of the highlights of our long weekend in Sedona. A very unique and wonderful dining experience to eat under the stars on the banks of a rustling creek--with a fit for foodies meal! Recommend the goat cheese (fun presentation), bacon wrapped rabbit, sunchoke bisque, venison--everything was delicious!Special Features:
- Great views + amazing foodOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 10/11/2014Was planning a trip to Sedona, so decided to plan a nice dinner to wrap up the weekend. The views were amazing, I'd recommend getting maybe an earlier reservation and just taking your time to enjoy the scenery and enjoy the food/drinks. The only complaint, if it can even really be categorized as a complaint, the lobster bisque was nothing stunning. The crab crepe, however, was amazing. Service was prompt and extremely knowledgeable in their recommendations and their wine selection. In retrospect, the price point really isn't anything too outrageous. It was a great way to wrap up a fun weekend in Sedona.Special Features:
- Very Special Dining ExperienceedhcaDined on 10/11/2014This restaurant is situated on Oak Creek and our outdoor dining experience was beautiful, relaxing, and very special. The menu was interesting and ingredients were fresh and combined in exciting ways. The food was amazing and plated beautifully. Our server, Marla, provided outstanding service and was very knowledgable about every aspect of the restaurant, menu, and wine list. Everyone near Sedona area should give this gem a try -- you will not want to miss this experience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great romantic settingOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 10/10/2014We recommend a table by the creek. Great romantic setting.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- What a treatGingerBernDined on 10/10/2014We originally had reservation for dinner but had to change to lunch. Our last day in Sedona and what treat. Everything was perfect from the creek side table with the ducks to the food and service . The setting was superb as was the weather. We couldn't have wished for more to end our stay.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pristine ambiencemkodeDined on 10/10/2014You will feel like you've entered another realm of dining in nature. Top it off with the most find French food specialties and you've been transported to the French countryside...don't leave Sedona without visiting L'Auberge.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not a fine dining experience.TomSmithVIPDined on 10/8/2014We went to L'Auberge expecting a fine dining experience, but it was more like eating in a hotel restaurant. I was a little surprised that we completed a three course meal with wine door to door in just under one hour. We felt we were rushed to enjoy a fine meal in such a short amount of time. Food was good, but not outstanding. Certainly not a fine dining experience.
- A real findBruceADined on 10/8/2014I was expecting a great experience but was pleasantly surprised how good the service was, thank you Marlo!! The food was terrific, the scenery was great, although it rained a bit so we didn't go outside to sit, but will when we go back. My girlfriend had the crab crepes appetizer and it was wonderful. I had the aged beef carpaccio, which was very well done. The for the main my girlfriend had the duck, which was to die for and I the venison. Apparently the venison is their signature dish and it well should be. I highly recommend going to this restaurant if you want an extremely well crafted meal. It will be a little pricey to some, but well worth the investment. After all, you are in Sedona, Phoenix's playground!Special Features:
- Charming experienceAirPairDined on 10/6/2014We dined on 10/06/2014 at 7pm. Lovely setting creek side with a server who was very attentive, yet unobtrusive. Food arrived in a timely matter and the presentation was outstanding. Every course was a delight and never again will I look at mashed potatoes the same! We enjoyed the experience, and yes, it was not dinner out, but an experience and wouldn't hesitate to repeat during our next visit to Sedona.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

"Try Me," announces most of the product demonstrations at the new Tweeter concept store in Dedham, MA. OK, sounds good to me—after all, that's what experiencing electronics is all about, right?
Indeed. Demonstrations—and within those, self-guided demonstrations you can do without any intimidating sales presence—really allow customers to see the difference between TV sets and loudspeakers, or even figure out what the heck home control is if they've never seen it in action.
Tweeter, whose recent struggles include filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy a year ago, has done some restructuring since being acquired by Schultze Asset Management and getting a new CEO and president—George Granoff—also in 2007. The company had introduced its concept store, with experience nooks, in recent years in Burlington, MA, Las Vegas and outside of Chicago. The one in Dedham, near company headquarters in Canton, MA, adds the "Try Me" buttons and bulletproof demos—you shouldn't see any flummoxed Tweeter salespeople here.
I got to take a tour of the Dedham store this week, and after seeing it I hope Tweeter is able to roll it out to more stores. The "Try Me" button is a great addition and nice differentiator to other specialty retailers. It's always good to have a knowledgeable salesperson show you products, but the extra "Try Me" option is welcomed educational and personable class.
On my tour of the newly re-designed Tweeter, I found the biggest benefit of the one-button learning came in "The Video Challenge" room. There's a bank of information and buttons (see pic) with buttons to press for resolution, color, contrast, sports, nature and "flat-panel done right" that corresponds to the three LCDs and four plasmas in the room—including the Pioneer Kuro as the showcase display.
Pressing the resolution button, for example, gave me a recorded voice that told me what to look for in video clips of cars passing on the screen. With the clip on all screens in the room, I was told to pay attention to the license plates - surely enough, you could see the differences in clarity and smoothness on the different TVs. For customers who are bombarded by specs, this was a real-word example of how TVs differ in some areas.
Of course, the tour also features a rockin' home theater that highlights Tweeter's whole A/V, control, design and construction solution package, which was also a definite high point of the tour.
Nothing quite helps consumer education of electronics like the art of the demo. This Tweeter store gets that, and gets it right. What stores give you the best demos—tell us in comments below!Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

This is slightly embarrassing. The window treatments in my baby boys room verge on atrocious. Its not the actual curtains that offend. No, those are quite adorable: green and white mini-dotted cotton twill. But, you see, I put my baby to bed so early that it is often still light out when he goes down. So heres my confession: Ive had to pin up blankets over the curtains (that are, in fact, lined with blackout lining) to make it somewhat resemble nighttime when I put him to bed. This might not sound so shameful to you, but Im a decorator. This is an outright crime. Pinned-up-blankets-as-window-treatments is not really the style Im not known for nor want to be. If my house is my calling card, then my nursery is off limits.
I was lamenting this fact to a group of moms recently, and a few gasped with horror. At that moment, I couldnt blame them. Why did I turn my sons cute nursery into a huge design fail with patchwork, homemade window treatments?! I was horrified, too I am a decorator for goodness sake! But I soon realized they could care less about what was on the walls or covering the windows; they simply could not believe I put my baby down so early. Well, I just could never do that. Five p.m.?? I enjoy my baby way too much to have her spend most of the day in bed, one mom said. Do you even like spending time with your baby? asked another.
It makes me wonder why we cant all just be on each others sides. Being a new mom is hard. There is so much to figure out, and you are doing it as you go. Cant we just help each other get through it? Yes, of course, I like spending time with my baby I love it! But, I work from home, and to be honest, I usually end up spending a lot more time with my baby than working. If my little one doesnt go to bed as early as he does usually around six, but at times earlier then I would never get anything done ever.
This is what works for me, and this is how Im able to find work-life balance. This is the only way Im able to fit in all in. And you know what? My baby boy sleeps straight on through till about seven every morning and is as happy as he can be. Its a win-win situation. What we moms need is to support each other in our decisions even if another moms differ dramatically from our own. I wont judge you for putting your child to bed at 9 p.m. if you wont judge me for putting mine down well before the sun sets. But, please, ignore my curtains, will you?

Stanley Kubrick & his long lost LUNATIC AT LARGE, Starring Scar Jo
A "lost" Stanley Kubrick treatment, LUNATIC AT LARGE, was discarded in
the sixties but will now make it to the big screen, with Scarlett
Johansson and Sam Rockwell on board to star in the film. The story, set
in 1956, revolves around a former carnival worker living in New York,
who befriends an attractive barfly. According to The Guardian, the
audience "must try to work out which of the characters is an axe
murderer escaped from an asylum" (more). YES!
Kubrick's son in law, Philip Hobbs, rediscovered the lost treatment
over a decade ago while cleaning out Kubrick's estate. "I knew what it
was right away," Hobbs said in an interview with THE NEW YORK TIMES.
"Because I remember Stanley talking about Lunatic. He was always saying
he wished he knew where it was, because it was such a great idea" (more). Apparently,
Kubrick was a packrat who didn't like to discard anything, but he was
also disorganized and failed to maintain an effective filing system. As
he moved from Hollywood to London in 1962, a number of his projects
went astray, including LUNATIC AT LARGE. Luckily, Kubrick's story will become known to his fans soon
Kubrick is widely recognized as one of the most
influential and progressive filmmakers in history. He was, as his
anyone who knew him describes, a stubborn and obsessive perfectionist.
As such, his surrealistic and provocative films reflect Kubrick's
meticulous attention to detail. If you haven't seen ALL of the titles
below, you are surely missing out on a crucial chunk of film history.
Be sure to visit (or revisit) them!
You'll never be able to get these twins out of your head! Never!
a script he co-adapted from the Stephen King novel, Kubrick melds vivid
performances, menacing settings, dreamlike tracking shots and shock
after shock into a milestone of the macabre. In a signature role, Jack
Nicholson ("Heeeere's Johnny!") plays Jack Torrance, who's come to the
elegant, isolated Overlook Hotel as off-season caretaker with his wife
and son. Torrance has never been there before - or has he? The answer
lies in a ghostly time warp of madness and murder. Roger Ebert wrote on
the film in 2006, "In a snowbound hotel, three people descend into
versions of madness or psychic terror and we cannot depend on any of
them for an objective view of what happens. It is this elusive
open-endedness that makes Kubrick's film so strangely disturbing."
calls this important 1970's film "a brilliant nightmare". Derby-topped
teddy-boy hooligan Alex has his own way of having a good time - at the
tragic expense of others. His journey from amoral punk to brainwashed
proper citizen and back again forms the dynamic arc of Kubrick's
future-shock vision of Anthony Burgess' novel. Controversial when first
released, A CLOCKWORK ORANGE won New York Film Critics Best Picture and
Director awards and earned four Oscar nominations, including best
picture. Its power still entices, shocks and holds us in its grasp.
many consider to be one of the greatest films ever made, 2001 needs no
introduction, but here goes: A mysterious black monolith appears at the
dawn of man to educate a group of apes. In modern times, the monolith
is found again, unearthed on the moon. It sends a strange signal to
Jupiter, and a group of astronauts travel to that planet to learn more.
Unfortunately, their on-board computer goes...a little crazy. Human
evolution and artificial intelligence mixed with a little bit of
surrealism? Yes please.
black comedy classic about an "accidental" nuclear attack received four
Oscar nominations (including Best Picture, 1964). Convinced the Commies
want to pollute America's "precious bodily fluids," a crazed general
orders a nuclear air strike on the U.S.S.R. As his aide, Captain
Mandrake, scrambles to unlock a recall code to prevent the bombing, the
U.S. President calls a drunken Soviet Premier on the hotline claiming
the proposed attack is all a silly mistake, while the President's
advisor (an ex-Nazi scientist) Dr. Strangelove verifies the existence
of a dreaded Doomsday Machine -- a retaliatory device designed by the
Soviets to end the human race once and for all! The film has been
selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry.

Editor's note: check out excerpt of Mike's book in the Dinner Guest Blog with Culinate.
Across America, people are escaping fluorescent-lit grocery-store aisles to rediscover the fresh, seasonal offerings of the farmers' market. A new and thriving culture has sprung up as thousands gather each weekend to pinch, poke, smell, and probe the produce — and at times each other. Who knew that buying peaches and eggplants could be such fun?
Mike Madison, who raises organic flowers, melons, olives, and apricots, has been setting up at these markets for over 20 years. With keen observations and sly wit, Madison presents a series of essays and vignettes that introduce us to the characters who make our food, the economy that produces it, and the spirit that has placed farmers' markets among the fastest-growing movements in the country.

NEW to our website is the paper produced by Graeme Young and John Temple Lang further to our event held in March 2014. Their paper entitled "Competition Law and Enforcement in an Independent Scotland" can be downloaded below.
Competition Law and Enforcement in an Independent Scotland
Online sales & competition law – 11 September 2014
With online sales ever on the increase, it is no surprise that competition authorities have turned their attention to the novel competition issues raised. Whilst the internet vastly increases consumers' ability to shop around, competition law is just beginning to scrutinise arrangements at wholesale level which might be problematic. Cases have been brought by regulators in the UK, EU and US and the principles and law that apply are beginning to become clearer.
We will consider key questions including:
- How do the issues raised by online selling differ from "bricks and mortar" selling?
- How have Competition and Markets Authority (formerly the Office of Fair Trading) and European Commission approached these issues?
- Should Most Favoured Customer clauses be a concern for competition authorities?
The event will be chaired by Catriona Munro. Speakers will include:
Carolyn Jameson, Director, General Counsel, Skyscanner
Carolyn is responsible for all legal and public and regulatory affairs of the company globally. Before joining Skyscanner, she spent a number of years in a variety of legal and commercial roles within the proprietary and open-source software industry. She joined Skyscanner in 2013 from Wolfson Microelectronics plc, where she had held the role of Head of Legal for the previous 5 years.
Antonia Horrocks, Project Director, CMA
Antonia Horrocks is a Project Director in the Enforcement Directorate of the Competition and Markets Authority, managing Competition Act cases. She has over 15 years of antitrust experience working in regulators and private practice.

Before joining the CC in 2012, Antonia was a Counsel in the antitrust team at Shearman & Sterling, where she advised companies in a variety of sectors including technology, pharmaceutical, chemicals, financial services and food on all aspects of EC and UK competition law, with a particular focus on managing global mergers and cartel cases.
Ben Rayment, Barrister, Monckton Chambers
Ben is a former Legal Secretary to the UK Competition Commission/Competition Appeal Tribunal. Ben has experience of a wide variety of heavy and complex litigation and advisory work in the CAT, Chancery Division, Commercial Court, and Administrative Court as well as guiding clients through OFT and Competition Commission (now CMA) investigations. According to clients Ben "brings clarity to very complex issues". He is "noted for his strong advocacy skills", "intricate knowledge of competition law institutions" and the fact that he is "user friendly" and "will work extremely hard to get the right result". Recent cases include a significant number of standalone (e.g. Arriva v Luton Airport and follow on damages claims (e.g. Pinewood v Reckitt Benckeiser ('Gaviscon') as well as significant administrative appeals in the Lundbeck 'pay for delay' cases before the EU General Court and Eurotunnel v CMA in the CAT. He has also advised in relation to the OFT's investigation into Children's Online Games and other online distribution issues.
Matthew Johnson, Economist, Oxera
Matthew is a Partner in Oxera's competition practice. His areas of expertise include merger analysis, abuse of dominance, and the effects of vertical and horizontal agreements between firms.

Firefighters battled a pair of suspicious fires near downtown Niles, involving two houses next to each other.
Crews were called to the 400-block of fourth street this morning for one house on fire.
When they arrived, they discovered smoke and flames coming from the house next to it as well, and called in extra help.
Both homes were vacant, and there were no injuries.
The first home sustained extensive damage, but flames at the second house were put out quickly and there was only minor damage.
"The biggest challenge on any fire is communication, and so when I say take an interior line to the second floor, does that mean to this building or the other building," said Niles fire chief Larry Lamb. "So, we actually midway through the fire changed and separated onto two separate channels, so there is not confusion on what building we are talking about."
Investigators say they don't believe the fire spread from one house to the other.. Since the burning sections were not next to each other.
Bystanders told NewsCenter 16 they saw someone walking away from home before they saw the smoke start.
Police are working to obtain a search warrant to further investigate.
NewsCenter 16 will keep you updated as more information becomes available.

BBC: Monster cargo ship delivers '863 million tins of baked beans'
The BBC has sensationally quantified the cargo capacity of a new behemoth container ship as "863 million tins of baked beans". Auntie's penchant for describing very big, heavy, strong or long things in terms mere mortals can get their heads round is well known to Reg regulars. Last year, it described the constricting force of a …
American Broadcasting Corporation?
Why does the Beeb like to use units of measurement which are totally meaningless to its audience when trying to make things meaningful? Containers filling a public square in somewhere in North America? How big is a Times Square? is it as big as Trafalgar Square? Or as big as Machynlleth Town Square? And is a Brooklyn Bridge as heavy as Trefechan Bridge in Aberystwyth (pretty heavy, believe me, it's made of stone) or heavier than the new Severn Bridge? Please, please, please use comparisons we understand.
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
This should not be a cause for complaint. Rather, look at it as an opportunity to unite both sides of the Atlantic through the Register Units of Measurement Program (RUMP). From now on, large weights should be expressed in terms of Brooklyn Bridges (bb) while masses of industrial building materials should instead be expressed in terms of Eiffel Towers (et). This is similar in concept to avoirdupois and troy measurements of weight. While it does nothing whatsoever to simplify the scales used to measure these things (especially as there are already official Reg UOMs for weight), there is nothing so unifying as confusion.
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
My guess is that the BBC knows it has a large Amercian readership. The average UK citizen will have heard of Times Square and the Brooklyn Bridge whereas the average American won't have a clue about Trafalgar Square, etc.* After all, all American TV shows and films have to inform the viewer that London is in England and Paris, France, etc.
I agree though, it is slightly annoying.
* A sweeping generalisation, I know!
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
All part of the great Americanization program. Have you noticed what they've done to "BBC English"? The strange moratorium on the word aeroplane? I wonder how much longer they'll wait before feeling it's safe to start slipping in "airplane".
Y'all have a nice day.
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
Do get it right!
It's "Y'all have a good one".
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
"Paris, France, etc."
I thought Paris was in Texas. Oh well.
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
That's staggering! Americans can read English?
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
Perhaps the same way that whenever US dollars are quoted the conversion to Pounds is omitted unlike with every other currency.
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
"How big is a Times Square? is it as big as Trafalgar Square?"
Not everyone in the UK knows how big Trafalgar Square is either (other than on a Monopoly board).
I'm not sure and I've stood in it. Though that was pre-Olympics and I couldn't see a thing for the high fences.
How about George's Square? Or if piled outside Stirling Library, does it reach the cone on the statue?
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
"Why does the Beeb like to use units of measurement which are totally meaningless to its audience when trying to make things meaningful?"
I know there is a growing trend amongst hard of reading wing commentardship to prevent facts getting in the way of a decent rant but the BBC didn't make that comparison, that image was from Maersk
As the text under the image states
"This image from Maersk shows what 18,000 shipping containers look like in the wrong place"
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
Alternatively, the BBC was just indulging in some lazy churnalism from the Maersk press release. Check the second photo on the page - it's Times Square:
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
You're right, people don't take the time to comprehend things before they respond.
BTW I don't think Pen-y-gors was being serious. Take it easy Ace.
@Z80 Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
I'm thinking about removing the "Ace" and fully embracing my inner Rimmer
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
To be (slightly) fair, I've seen and heard American sources compare large objects (typically the bigger asteroids, or ice shelves that have calved from Antarctica/Greenland) to various smaller US states, several of which I'd struggle to place on a map beyond generally north-eastern USA, let alone have an idea of their general size (though I believe there is one that's the size of Wales, give or take a few sheep).
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
I thought Paris was wherever she wanted to be..
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
Speaking as an American, I can honestly say I haven't a clue how big Times Square is. Judging from the pictures, it's a lot like being in an overfull elevator only outside, unless you're unusually tall of course then it's more like a large overfull open air elevator. They might as well make comparisons to Bowditch crater. As for the Brooklyn Bridge, I've seen it from afar but never picked it up. While we're on the subject I've actually been in the Eiffel Tower but didn't take the time to estimate its mass.
Now then, how big is a tin of beans? In sardines preferably, but I can convert from linguine and jubs.
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
They already have us covered. El Reg has a "Vulture Central units" converter
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
Probably quoting a press release & they couldn't be bothered converting to El Reg units
@Eddy Ito (Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?)
I believe the correct unit of measurement for beans is "hill". (That is, according to my extensive research into bean measurement metrics, which consisted of watching Casablanca.)
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
The Chaser - English to American translator
The Chaser boys have a go at American tourists.
Bill Maher, makes his point how dumb,ignorant and uneducated the majority of Americans are.And backs it up with facts. The ones who dislike and hate Bill Maher, are the same people who belong to that category of ignorant, embarrassing dummies. Thank You for watching!
Julian Morrow (Chasers War on Everything) interviews (very stupid, normal) Americans and asks questions about the world. The answers are hilarious, enjoy! Very funny.
For the smarter yanquies... and those in Queens Land, we suffer the Dumb Fuck Syndrome quite badly in Australia too.......
Re: American Broadcasting Corporation?
Uniting via the RUMP?!
...terms mere mortals can get their heads round...
Sorry, no. I cannot visualize "863 million tins of baked beans" any more than I can imagine lots of double decker buses balanced on top of a brace of stegosauruses (which according to the BBC were the size of a single decker bus).
Re: ...terms mere mortals can get their heads round...
All I know is that that many beans would produce one mighty fart....
Icon, because need need to was it down properly.
Re: ...terms mere mortals can get their heads round...
How about 10 x 863 million student meals? Any easier?
Re: ...terms mere mortals can get their heads round...
Has the Beeb now officially dropped Olympic Size Swimming Pools from it's official units of measurement?
Re: ...terms mere mortals can get their heads round...
863 million tins of baked beans
So how many Ann-Margret's could swin in that amount of baked beans?
earth to moon is a bit further that reported ...
closest around 350,000km, not 350km
Re: earth to moon is a bit further that reported ...
ISS not moon
Re: earth to moon is a bit further that reported ...
That's not a moon!
too complex for us mere mortals to understand
All I need to know is, is it bigger than Wales?
Re: too complex for us mere mortals to understand
According to my reckoning, it would require ~260000 million cans to cover Wales one bean deep, so 863m tins really isn't all that much. It would cover the City of London to about 4½ inches deep.
Re: too complex for us mere mortals to understand
It would cover the City of London to about 4½ inches deep.
Now that I'd like to see. Kickstarter?
Re: too complex for us mere mortals to understand
But how much toast would that require ?
Re: too complex for us mere mortals to understand
More importantly, how many of these ships would be required to drown the financial industry in their own waste products?
Proper units
Area vs area of Wales, and volume expressed as a number of whales, please.
At a shade over 46km, that tower of containers would have been about the right height to get clipped by Fridays meteor in Russia.
Cosmic Jengo
Good job nobody had tried to stack them then, would've made quite a din when they tumbled
And the name of this ship is...?
<-- his skills are required, apparently...is the Triple E the class, or the name?
"is the Triple E the class, or the name?"
It's the class, obviously. You see it, and you go "Eee, that's a big ship!"
Re: "is the Triple E the class, or the name?"
Could we please have a suitable photo to illustrate how young ladies on the beach compare in size to an Eee
A billion tins of beans
Not any easier to get one's mind around... a billion is too many to conceptualise.
Re: A billion tins of beans
I'd have been more impressed if they'd quoted the volume in the number of actual beans. Utterly irrelevant, but impressive all the same.
bit dubious about 18,000
I work in shipping and that may be a little on the high side. Largest extant per wiki (don't have official figures to hand) is currently about 15,000 and teu figures are fudgable. Weight is significant.
Perhaps more imporatantly, the shipping industry is run mainly by morons who sell at lows and buy, and commission massive newbuilds, at the peak of the market (from wiki, "In February and June 2011, Maersk awarded Daewoo Shipbuilding two US$1.9 billion contracts ($3.8bn total) to build twenty of the ships").
Going by that, the current bubble is about to burst. Caveat emptor.
Re: bit dubious about 18,000
I'm going to guess they've gone with the total ship volume which is naturally not the entire cargo area (small things like engines, crew accomodation, the tower, etc tend to get in the way...
18,000 total size, 15,000 actual cargo carry ability. Sounds about right to me...
Re: bit dubious about 18,000
18,000 teu is how many they could stack and be within the height and sight line limits
15,000 teu is how many they could hold at typical average container weights
If next years christmas popular present is made of lead it will be lower, if there is a big craze for bubble wrap it will be higher
And if you...
... lay the containers out flat they would cover an area the size of Felixstowe (or thereabouts).
Re: And if you...
I thought Felixstowe was already covered by containers.....
How many olympic-sized swimming pools...
would you need to hold all those baked beans
Re: How many olympic-sized swimming pools...
...and how many Roger Daltrey dolls would you need to sit in them with their loofah's?
Mine's the one with meaty, bouncy things in the pockets, and no they're not made of horse!
When I read that article I just new El Reg was going to have a go.
I'll admit they did labour the point a bit.

text: Hi Barn! Rhiain here. While Gunnora and other have mentioned several natural dyes for the color red, I must warn you of something. Linen does not take or keep color very well. Even if you are able to get a shade deeper than pink, you're chances of keeping it are slim. In period, most linen was kept white, or natural. I think I've seen references to pale colors a few times, but that's about all I've been able to get on Linen unless it's a cotton blend, and then only with quite abit of cotten. Let me know if you need any books or references, I've got a pretty good size library on natural dyes and I'd be happy to copy anything you need or give you the ISBN if you'd like to get your own. In service, HL Rhiain ferch Muirgheal ============================================================================ To be removed from the Ansteorra mailing list, please send a message to Majordomo at Ansteorra.ORG with the message body of "unsubscribe ansteorra".
