AGAMEMNON by Aeschylus, Part 10
HeraLD 'Tis fairly said: thus speaks a noble dame, Nor speaks amiss, when truth informs the boast. (CLYTEMNESTRA withdraws again into the palace.) LEADER So has she spoken-be it yours to learn By clear interpreters her specious word. Turn to me, HeraLD-tell me if anon The second well-loved lord of Argos comes? Hath Menelaus safely sped with you? HeraLD Alas-brief boon unto my friends it were, To flatter them, for truth, with falsehoods fair! LEADER Speak joy, if truth be joy, but truth, at worst- Too plainly, truth and joy are here divorced. HeraLD The hero and his bark were rapt away Far from the Grecian fleet; 'tis truth I say. LEADER Whether in all men's sight from Ilion borne, Or from the fleet by stress of weather torn? HeraLD Full on the mark thy shaft of speech doth light, And one short word hath told long woes aright. LEADER But say, what now of him each comrade saith? What their forebodings, of his life or death? HeraLD Ask me no more: the truth is known to none, Save the earth-fostering, all-surveying Sun. LEADER Say, by what doom the fleet of Greece was driven? How rose, how sank the storm, the wrath of heaven? HeraLD Nay, ill it were to mar with sorrow's tale The day of blissful news. The gods demand Thanksgiving sundered from solicitude. If one as HeraLD came with rueful face To say, The curse has fallen, and the host Gone down to death; and one wide wound has reached The city's heart, and out of many homes Many are cast and consecrate to death, Beneath the double scourge, that Ares loves, The bloody pair, the fire and sword of doom- If such sore burden weighed upon my tongue, 'Twere fit to speak such words as gladden fiends. But-coming as he comes who bringeth news Of safe return from toil, and issues fair, To men rejoicing in a weal restored- Dare I to dash good words with ill, and say For fire and sea, that erst held bitter feud, Now swore conspiracy and pledged their faith, Wasting the Argives worn with toil and war. Night and great horror of the rising wave Came o'er us, and the blasts that blow from Thrace Clashed ship with ship, and some with plunging prow Thro' scudding drifts of spray and raving storm Vanished, as strays by some ill shepherd driven. And when at length the sun rose bright, we saw Th' Aegaean sea-field flecked with flowers of death, Corpses of Grecian men and shattered hulls. For us indeed, some god, as well I deem, No human power, laid hand upon our helm, Snatched us or prayed us from the powers of air, And brought our bark thro'all, unharmed in hull: And saving Fortune sat and steered us fair, So that no surge should gulf us deep in brine, Nor grind our keel upon a rocky shore. So 'scaped we death that lurks beneath the sea, But, under day's white light, mistrustful all Of fortune's smile, we sat and brooded deep, Shepherds forlorn of thoughts that wandered wild O'er this new woe; for smitten was our host, And lost as ashes scattered from the pyre. Of whom if any draw his life-breath yet, Be well assured, he deems of us as dead, As we of him no other fate forebode. But heaven save all! If Menelaus live, He will not tarry, but will surely come: Therefore if anywhere the high sun's ray Descries him upon earth, preserved by Zeus, Who wills not yet to wipe his race away, Hope still there is that homeward he may wend. Enough-thou hast the truth unto THE END. (The HeraLD departs.)

- 1Apr 26, '13 by mooney3012Quote from aalewineI did talk to my advisor last week. I asked if there was anything I could be doing to benefit me before we actually started (immunizations, BLS cert., etc) and she said to hold off on that till after the meeting. She said they are a bit particular as to where/how to get those done, which they will tell all that at the mtg. She did say however, to go ahead and start on drug/dosage calculations. I found a website www.dosgehelp.com which kinda teaches a few formulas. So that's all I'm doing for now, that and brushing up on A&P. hope this helps!Anyone talked to an adviser about the meeting? I want to know everything now! Lol! I want to get this show on the road! Lol

The reason behind this blog can be found here: [1].
This blog is not about writing a WDJ application for uploading a file, as there is more than enough information on SCN available explaining how to do this. It is about how to configure ICM to allow large file uploads (>100 MB) and what this implies. The configuration is valid for NetWeaver Java >= 7.10 as these releases use ICM.
A limitation of the maximum file size accepted by ICM is given by standard configuration. By default, ICM only accepts files not larger than 100 MB. As always, the documentation is not explaining why this is, it is just given by almighty SAP [2]:
"The default setting for the size of HTTP requests is a maximum of 100 megabytes"
The parameter: icm/<PROT>/max_request_size_KB
The see the current configuration of this parameter, you can use SAP MMC (you secured port 50013 to ensure not everyone can see anything of your portal, including the logs, right?).
This parameter needs to be changed in the ICM configuration file located on the server. As it is a default parameter, you`ll have to create the parameter first to overwrite the default value. After a restart of ICM, the change is effective and you can upload GB large files. Now, this parameter configured ICM and therefore generally valid. In case your portal is accessible by external users, you should use a reverse proxy to make sure people from outside try to crash your server by sending automatically large files to crash your server.
It would be nice to not find out the possible parameters using SAP Help when editing a configuration file. This is just counterproductive. Why not put all the parameters there, including a description? That's how most (ex: open source software) configuration files are done. The file serves as documentation.
Example application to try it out
The limitation is valid for every HTTP request send to AS Java, so if you want you can try it out with a portal application, servlet, KM file upload or a WDJ application. The example here is a WDJ application. You can write your own application using the examples provided by SAP here on SCN. In case you do not want to search, here is a short description on how to code the application.
1. Create a view named FileUpload
2. Node element uploadFile
3. Uploading the file is triggered by the action UploadFile
public void onActionUploadFile(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
IPrivateFileUploadView.IContextElement element = wdContext.currentContextElement();
IWDResource resource = element.getUploadFile();
if (element.getUploadFile() != null) {
// do something
} else {}
This is all it needs to have a WDJ application that allows to upload a file. Note that the node element handling the file is of type Resource. During the upload, WDJ creates a temporary file on the server that will be stored there until the resource is not any longer used.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) - Caleb Bushyhead homered and drove in the winning run, and Jeremy Erben and Ryan Duke worked out of bases-loaded situations in the eighth inning to lead Oklahoma to a 4-3 victory over South Carolina in the rain-plagued College World Series on Sunday night.
The start of the game was delayed 4 hours, 15 minutes, and play was halted for an additional 2:01 by rain and lightning in the middle of the sixth inning.
The Clemson-Arizona State game was postponed until Monday morning.
Bushyhead homered to break a 1-1 tie in the second, and he singled into the right-field corner to make it 3-2 in the fourth.
South Carolina was within a run after Duke walked Jackie Bradley on four pitches with the bases loaded in the ninth, but Duke got Adrian Morales to fly out to end the game.

After riding the freight elevator to the third floor, Streeter hits the record button and asks the artist to talk about the largely vacant mall his installment's going up in.
"It was the epitome of the '80s," responds Wollaeger, occupying his hands by whitening Chris Farley's face with an aerosol can. "At the grand opening, they had Tootie from The Facts of Life and Ricky Schroder there in his white cardigan. Then this mall got pretty rough.
"It's an empty mall what better place for art?"
Wollaeger poses a question to Bowls: "Do you ever find yourself going to a mall?"
"Never," Bowls responds. "I'm a grown man."
When the makeshift gallery erupts in laughter, Streeter stops filming, compelling Wollaeger to second-guess his commentary.
"That was all pretty wack, wasn't it?" the artist wonders aloud.
"Nah," Streeter comforts. "I'll cut it all together to make you sound smart."
This might as well serve as Lo-Fi's mission statement.
"I don't think the rest of the world looks down their noses at St. Louis like a lot of people here seem to think," Streeter reflects. "I don't think the rest of the world has much of an opinion either way. It's really a great place to be and compares well with a lot of other cities, in my opinion. Lo-Fi makes St. Louis look cool because St. Louis is cool."
"There is a lot of interesting stuff going on here, but nobody knows about it," seconds fellow transplant Art Chantry. "San Francisco, in the old days, was just a bunch of small drops that became puddles, which eventually became a pond. We're still building puddles in this town."

The 101st rated quarterback in the nation according to Scout.com outplayed Clovis (Calif.) West and future Cal Bear QB Beau Sweeney twice in 2007. Nonetheless, Davis did not get his first offer until taking his official visit to Buffalo this past weekend.
"Jerry committed to Buffalo," said Edison Assistant Coach Tony Perry. "He tripped there last weekend and got offered."
1550/96.1 Sporting News Radio Personality Marcus Grant also spoke to Davis on Tuesday and confirmed the two-star prospect is headed to play for Coach Turner Gill.
Davis is the third quarterback from the Central Section to earn a FBS offer. He joins Sweeney, and Fresno State bound Ebahn Feathers from Fresno Washington Union.

When I'm ill, I drink whiskey. More specifically, a hot toddy, otherwise known as "Irish Nyquil." My beloved local bartender from North Ireland taught me her old family recipe — just hot water, a couple jiggers of whiskey, and lemon wedges studded with cloves. One of those, spicy Kung Pao chicken, and bed. I behave like a dying animal when I'm sick. I like to suffer alone, in the dark. I hate to be fussed over. Can't you see I'm in mortal combat with the sniffles?!
This frustrates my girlfriend because she sees it as unfair. Well, life is unfair, Toots. When I fall ill, she wants to rush to my apartment and dote on me. Nurture me back to health. And I refuse to let her. I can't stand being pampered. It drives me crazy. I am a man. Like Batman. And if Batman can sew his own wounds shut in his crime-fighting bunker, I can blow my nose in bed without help from anyone. For the record: I blow my nose with toilet paper, not "Kleenex," the way the cavemen did. I appreciate her attentions, of course. But it's my fight. Keep reading »

- About Deakin
14 April 2010
Australia is in a unique position to take a leadership role in human development strategies if it can unpack how it has managed to achieve high standards of wellbeing with its income base, Deakin University's new Chair in International Development Professor Mark McGillivray said.
Australia is currently ranked second in the world in the 2009 Human Development Index (HDI), its best ranking ever.
The HDI ranks countries based on achievements in income, health and education. The index combines measures of life expectancy, literacy, school enrolment and GDP per capita and is calculated for 182 countries and territories.
Professor McGillivray's comments came as the University's Alfred Deakin Research Institute (ADRI) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) held the Australian launch of UNDP's Human Development Report 2009, the theme of which is Overcoming barriers: Human mobility and development (Wednesday 14 April). Dr Jeni Klugman, lead author of the Human Development Report, led the discussion.
"In an unequal world, the 2009 Human Development Report explores how policies on mobility and migration impact improvements in human development, finding that movement has the potential to improve people's lives, especially for the poorest," Dr Klugman said.
"Migrants and their families as well as source and destination communities can all benefit, yet there are many obstacles and challenges that must be overcome."
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Human Development Report. A key part of the day will be the Australian consultations on the UNDP Human Development Report 2010. The theme of this report is 20 Years on: Pushing the Frontiers of Human Development.
The 2010 report will look systematically at trends in human development over the past several decades, measure progress and examine how to take the richness of the human development approach forward.
"By looking at the trends of the past in human development, the 2010 Human Development Report will start connecting the reasons why human development progresses farther in some countries and not in others to provide a base for how to improve human development and its measurement around the world," Dr Klugman said.
Professor McGillivray said the 2009 launch and the 2010 consultations were among the most important international development events in Australia in 2010.
Australia's Parliamentary Secretary for International Development Assistance Hon Bob McMullan will speak at the launch. A second consultation, jointly hosted by ADRI and the Australian Council for International Development (ACFID), was held in Canberra on 13 April.
Professor Mark McGillivray, who recently commenced at Deakin, said Australia ranked 22nd in the index in terms of its income, fifth in terms of the life expectancy of its population and equal first in terms of educating its population.
"There are potential lessons there from Australia for the rest of the world at converting income into higher health and education levels.
"There is a lot of potential here, if we can understand this ourselves and explain it to the rest of the world."
Professor McGillivray said he was looking forward to his new role with ADRI which would involve building the Institute's research and policy strengths in international development.
"There are few things that are more important than improving the quality of life for the poorest people in the poorest countries when 1.5billion people live in extreme poverty," he said.

Wetlands and Climate Change
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), made of some of the world's best climate scientists, concluded in 1995 that there is human influence on the global climate. Based on this, 160 countries negotiated the Kyoto Protocol to address the issue of human impacts on climate change.¹ The consequences of climate change are not clear, but climate models are predicting serious problems in many areas of the world.
Agricultural and prairie regions are particularly sensitive and therefore vulnerable to climate change. Much of the economy is dependent on the quantity and quality of water and soil, both of which have been significantly affected by past climate change. Wetlands in these regions, which are ecologically situated at the land-water interface, are particularly vulnerable to the potential impacts of climate change.
Wetlands are among the world's most productive environments and provide a wide variety of benefits (Ramsar, 1998)² . They are cradles of biological diversity, providing the water and primary productivity upon which countless species of plants and animals depend for survival. The interactions of physical, biological and chemical components of a wetland, such as soils, water, plants and animals, enable the wetland to perform many vital functions, for example: water storage; storm protection and flood mitigation; shoreline stabilization and erosion control; groundwater recharge; groundwater discharge; water purification through retention of nutrients, sediments, and pollutants; and stabilization of local climate conditions, particularly rainfall and temperature (Ramsar, 1998).
Ducks Unlimited (DU), the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD), and Wetlands International-Americas (WI-A) have been working together to explore the feasibility of crediting carbon sequestration through conservation activities in wetlands as part of Canada's commitment to cut greenhouse gas emissions. Clearly, this feasibility must be based on sound science.
This website was developed to explore the state of knowledge and challenges on wetlands and carbon sequestration. Within this site, information has been gathered from papers, workshops and presentations and is available to the reader.
Funding for the partnership work comes from the workshop members (DU, IISD and WI-A) as well as from Industry Canada, Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration (PFRA), and Manitoba Habitat Heritage Corporation (MHHC).

I just got the Garumba. Mainly because the only thing I've wanted more than a Nausicaan ship in this game was Pakleds as a playable race.
I fly it like I fly my raptor. Sort of. But that's only because I didn't change a single thing about my weapons, bridge officers or spec yet.
The special ability is ... I guess ... the Klingon version of the phaser lance?
Not that thrilling. But it looks pretty.
And these days that's all I really care about anymore.

Posts from Beans & Lentils
Going Beyond Soup: 10 Satisfying Recipes Made with Lentils
Recipe Roundup
Dried lentils are a pantry essential in most of our kitchens, and come cooler months they're a go-to ingredient for a quick weeknight meal. Lentil soup may be a favorite, but don't forget all the other things you can make with lentils. From spicy lentil wraps to wild mushroom lentil burgers, here are 10 non-soup lentil recipes we're craving this winter:
How To Cook Beans on the Stove
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
If you've avoided cooking beans at home because you've heard that they are troublesome, finicky, or complicated, it's time to leave that behind. Cooking beans is no more bother than filling a pot of water and letting it simmer happily on the back burner all afternoon. In fact, that's basically all it is. Ignore the naysayers; it's time to cook some tasty, creamy, totally tender beans at home.
My New Favorite Ingredient: Special Tiny Lentils from Umbria
This past holiday I gave a good friend a package of Umbrian lentils as a part of our gift exchange. When she opened her package, she burst out laughing and soon I discovered why: she had included the exact same package of lentils in her box to me. Lentils for Christmas? you may ask — isn't that a form of punishment, like coal in your stocking? Not with this particular kind of lentil, which is a cut or two above what you find in the bulk bin at your local heath food store. Read on for my reasons why I consider them a gift equal to gold.

Recipe: Quinoa and Black Bean Salad with Orange-Coriander Dressing
Recipes from The Kitchn
Quinoa and black beans are pillars of our pantry. In summer we toss them into a satisfying, protein-packed salad with ripe tomatoes. In winter, however, we replace the tomatoes with something just as refreshing yet more seasonally appropriate: vibrant, juicy oranges.
Can You Help Me Learn to Love Beans?
Good Questions
Q: I hate all beans except green beans and edamame. My problem is the texture: the skin and chalky interior. I can do pureed beans in hummus, white bean dip, and black bean soup. But I would love to try all the wonderful bean dishes I see on Kitchn. I'd like the Kitchn readers to help me learn to love beans!
Flavor Punch: Black Bean Garlic Sauce
Ingredient Spotlight
When you're not ready for it, the robust garlic-spiked flavor of a dish with black bean garlic sauce can feel like a punch to the mouth. The first time I cooked with it, a dish of stir-fried eggplant, I kept sneaking spoonfuls from the pan and feeling my eyes pop with every umami-packed bite. If you need something that will wake up your tastebuds in these dog days of winter, just find yourself a jar of this sauce and let it work its magic.
White Beans: 5 Simple Vegetarian Suppers
Eating less meat, eating more greens, spending less money, cooking more dinners at home ... whatever your New Year's resolution is, chances are it can be helped along with a pot of beans. Soak, cook, and freeze a big batch of beans on the weekend and you'll be ready for simple, nourishing, and budget-friendly meals throughout the week. We love all types of beans, but these days we're especially partial to creamy white varieties, which star in these five delicious vegetarian suppers.
Simple Supper Recipe: Savory Stuffed Sweet Potatoes with White Beans and Kale
Recipes from The Kitchn
Parties to attend, gifts to wrap, flights to catch ... with all the busyness of the holidays, finding the time and energy to cook a proper, nourishing meal can be a challenge. But unless you intend to eat cookies for dinner (it's okay, we won't tell!), it can make all the difference to plan for a few simple and healthy dishes. Here's one of our go-tos: savory stuffed sweet potatoes with beans and greens. It can be a complete meal by itself, and is adaptable to what you have on hand.
Cold Weather Recipe: White Chicken Chili
Recipes from The Kitchn
My kitchen has been churning out brownies, baked goods, and layer cakes in mass quantity over the past two weeks, and boy have I been hankering for a savory reprieve. (You know it's bad when one more finger-lick of chocolate, even in the name of hot fudge sauce perfection, just might end in a sugar-induced coma.) Thank goodness white chicken chili seems to be the perfect baking overdose cure.

- Starring: Bonnie Hunt, Kirsten Dunst, Robin Williams
- Summary: When young Alan Parrish discovers a mysterious board game, he doesn't realize its unimaginable powers, until he is magically transported before the startled eyes of his friend, Sarah, into the untamed jungles of Jumanji. There he remains for 26 years until he is freed from the game's spell by two unsuspecting children. (Sony)… Expand

Score distribution:
Positive: 3 out of 18
Mixed: 9 out of 18
Negative: 6 out of 18
The result is a thrill ride with enough plunges and turns and loop-the-loops to make it worth a spin. What the picture lacks is the magic and resonance you feel in the best of popular entertainments.
Based on a popular children's book by Chris Van Allsburg and directed by that "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" guy Joe Johnston, Jumanji is a calculated but very entertaining special effects extravaganza. [15Dec1995 Pg. 01.D]
Eschewing warm, cuddly imagery just as Mr. Van Allsburg's book does, the film affects a strange, artificial style that has the invasive weirdness of "Gremlins" but none of the charm.
The screenplay, however, denies the film a solid foundation. Jumanji is diverting in a splashy , eye-catching manner, but is about as substantive and durable as filigree.
Williams is hardly at his comically inventive best. And the script (adapted by Chris Van Allsburg, and a string of others, from his book) pursues the least exciting avenues possible.
Something bad happened on the way from the book to the movie. [15Dec1995 Pg. F.01]
Director Joe Johnston's elaborately dressed kids' movie--about a board game that sucks its players into a perilous jungle overrun by lions, rhinos, monkeys, crocodiles and spiders--spends so much time on the how of special effects that it neglects the why of characterization.
Score distribution:
Positive: 18 out of 20
Mixed: 2 out of 20
Negative: 0 out of 20
Sep 29, 2011This review contains spoilers. I consider this movie as one of my all time favourite movies, and also Robin Williams as one of my favourite actors.
This is the story of Alan Parish who finds a board game, which unknown to him releases the inhabititants of the game, depending on the role of the dice.
While playing the game with a girl called Sarah from his street, they both decide to stop playing the game, but Alan un-wittingly throws the dice, and the game punishes him, by sucking him into the game with the message ' In the jungle you must wait, till the dice reads five or eight'.
Many years later Judy & Peter who have moved into Alans house, find the game, and begin playing it, and Peter eventually throws an eight, thus releasing alan from the game.
What follows in an action paced film, with great special effects.

Jul 5, 2014I saw this movie when it first came out and I loved it! Saw it many times over on TV, always entertaining! It's 2014, just saw it again with my 11 years old child and she loves it, too! Great entertaining movie that doesn't age! Fun, entertaining, and everything else!… Expand
ShlumGuyJul 10, 2006Metacritic got this one WRONG, this was a great movie. Too many people compare the book to the movie directly which is horribly bias, and unfair. Judge this movie without the book in mind, it is unfair to do otherwise. If you do, which you should since every other movie should be judged that way, this way a great movie!… Expand
patrickd.Nov 12, 2005It was good! I used to love this movie!
Sep 5, 2011It's amazing that most fantasy movies (aside from the ones with British actors) have American protagonists and British antagonists as well and that's the reason why we get Joe Johnton's fantasy comedy adventure Jumanji, loosely based on a children's literature book of the same name by Chris Van Allsburg.
It revolves around two children named Judy and Peter Shepard as they discover an ancient board game known as Jumanji. Once they started playing it, mystical jungle animals started to appear and cause trouble to their home and the town of Brantsford. Then, they realize that they released a grown man named Alan Parrish, who has been stuck inside the game for 26 years and needs the children's help along with an old friend of his named Sarah Whittle to survive the dangers that lie within the game's magical power.
The reason that I'm reviewing this is because it has been my childhood favorite next to Disney's The Lion King ever since from the classic 1990s. If you understand this, then I'll make my opinion about it just to make it easier for you.
The only problem that I had with this movie was the slow pacing. It was very tiresome when it comes to other movies from the eighties and nineties until the climax of the movie, it started to become faster than before it gives the characters some development.
As for the rest of the movie, everything about this film blew me away with a lot of good things. The fantasy elements of the CGI animals from Industrial Light and Magic was very damn cool they just looked exactly like the book (except the snake for some reason). The actors like Robin Williams, Bonnie Hunt, Kirsten Dunst, Bradley Pierce, and the rest have done a great job at their performances and the comedy in this movie was very clever in my opinion though it didn't give me any laughs, but I think it might as well when I watch it again someday.
The action sequences were very good when it comes to other fantasy movies with fantastic action sequences. The scenes with the animals were given some screen time and they were very good, but when it comes to very frightening scenes in fantasy movies, the most scary scene of all was the lion because it was scary and too dark for the kids, but I've enjoyed it though. The script, in my opinion, was pretty decent. Not outstanding, but not that bad either. The music score from from the brilliant James Horner was thrilling, epic, and very emotional.
It told a very good story and the climax near the end of the movie was amazing. Even though it's not completely faithful to the book (unless you could check it out if you like), I've found this movie to be Joe Johnston's greatest work ever made and it's in no doubt one of the best movies, in my opinion, from the classic 1990s. A big thumbs up from me.

Aug 28, 2014Jumanji is an unique and exceptional story told marvelously by Robin Williams. Critics were hard on this audience-favorite, and for no good reason. It relies on visual effects--but it also relies on a captivating plot line.… Expand
Mar 14, 2014No logic to be found. This movie has a terrible script to go along with a story that is very poor. It is action packed but it has many problems. For instance it is raining and flooding inside the house. Here's an idea, go outside. This type of thing happens often in this movie and creates some humor that the movie has no intention of creating. It is a fun watch but has many flaws -- 46.8 out of 100… Expand

Montreal-based Chamtech Systems has expanded its selection of retractable enclosures to include flexible workspace for paint and sandblast applications.
The new line of retractable paint booths and sandblast enclosures is designed to meet increasing demands by industrial manufacturers in many sectors to save workspace while complying with air quality safety standards.
The retractable paint booths provide a safe, cost-effective, clean work area that is designed to work with various air filtrations systems currently on the market, according to Chamtech.
The enclosures simplify painting of large, hard-to-maneuver pieces in manufacturing facilities by offering 360-degree access when painting or abrasive blasting, and then using that floor space for other operations at other times. Large work pieces can be positioned with an overhead crane or forklift while the booth is retracted.
Features and Design
Composed of a translucent, fire-retardant shell (NFPA 701) mounted to a lightweight rolling aluminum structure, the paint booths retract to a fraction of their extended length. The shell allows exterior lighting to shine through, eliminating the need for specialized explosion-proof lighting.
Booths are available in an economical standard size (24 feet long x 14 feet wide x 9 feet high without rails) or can be customized up to 30 feet wide, 15 feet high and unlimited length.

Chef's table in Pittsburgh?
Looking for recommendations on a good, interesting meal in Pittsburgh. Good wine line key, cost not a primary objective. My main client was recently married, and want to take her and her wine-loving husband out to dinner. I'm probably more of a foodie than they are, but they'll go along with me, I'm convinced.
I haven't done much fine dining in PIT, so not quite sure what I'm looking for. I read the review of Eleven's chef's table, but it didn't terribly excite me. I've eaten there 4-5 times and found it good, but not wow. I've eaten at quite a few places downtown, with the probable exception of Nine on Nine (although I walk by
For a point of reference, the new husband loves Lidia's, and is a regular there. Her favorite is Capital Grill. I want to mix them up more than a little bit.
I'm thinking maybe Salt of the Earth, but beyond that really have no clue. Thanks!
Go with your first instinct...You won't go wrong with Salt! That said, my next favorite is Nine on Nine. Another idea might be Montery Bay on Mt. Washington. The food is not quite as inventive as Salt, but the view really makes for a memorable evening.
re: Burghfeeder
I totally agree with Burghfeeder regarding Salt. It is always my suggestion for the type of event described in the OP.
Salt doesn't do tastings AFAIK, though it would be easy enough to sort of make your own.
Spoon has a 5 course tasting hat would likely appeal to everyone's tastes. Tamari also offers a Chef's tasting menu.
Given your preferences, I would lean towards Spoon.
re: vacationmomma
Cure offers a family style tasting that's very, very reasonably priced, and Severino is a hell of a chef. That said, it's a bit more casual than Spoon, which also has an extensive wine list (saving the host the trouble of pairing when he's not sure what they'll be having)
re: wizzy99
looking forward to your report! Just saw this on the site "Chef's Tasting menus available Mon-Wed evenings with one week's advance reservation."
I've only been there once, but was amazed at the wine selection at Bar Marco in the Strip. Coupled with a very tasty appetizer and entree list, I really enjoyed my evening there.
As promised, reporting back. We had a WONDERFUL meal at Salt. They offer a tasting menu Mon-Wed, with seating at the kitchen bar. We were a party of four, and it was tough having a conversation across all of us due to the straight nature of our seating, but we all agreed that we truly enjoyed ourselves.
We went with the 8 course tasting, with drink pairings. I can't say wine pairing as it wasn't solely wine, but everything was a wonderful match. We arrived for dinner a few minutes after 6pm, and left 3 hours later, just after 9pm. Pricing for the tasting was $100, plus $55 for the pairings. Alternately we could have gone for a 5 course tasting for $75, with a $35 pairing. In talking with the chef, only one course, the dessert, was directly off the menu. We noticed that several of the wines, particularly the pinot noir that paired marvelously with the lamb, was not on the menu; our hostess mentioned that she had picked it up especially for us.
Amuse: scallop, radish, chie, olive oil, lemon
Soup: canteloupe broth, melon, mint, oregano, jalapeno
nectarine, lardo, cress, correl, cucumber
foie gras, fig, fried garlic, pink peppercorn, balsamic vinegar
Fish: black bass, uni, potato, carrot, basil
meat: lamb, beet, musroom, beets, black garlic
cheese: blue cheese, plum, honey, cocoa, celery
dessert: peach, chocolate, hazelnut, pound cake
My favorites:
1) the lamb, by far. simply amazing, especially with the wine pairing
2) sea bass. I like fish, but this was sublime.
3) foie gras. I can't believe that foie only made it to number 3, but numbers 1 and 2 were that good
Overall summary: I'd go back in a heartbeat. The tasting menu was pricey, but I thought delivered value as well. I wouldn't recommend this for a serious business discussion due to the 4-across seating (picture sitting next to each other at a bar), but with some flexibility in how you position your chairs you can manage.
I couldn't figure out how to post directly at the appropriately place in the post, so I decided to just use flickr for photos of the meal. Photos were with my phone, so not my finest work.
re: wizzy99
So happy to hear you had a great time and thanks so much for the report! Salt wasn't offering regular tastings when I was still in Pitt, but Sousa and his team have created my favorite dishes to date.
The price is on the higher side, but seems fair given that it was the equivalent of a chefs table..but I don't think they should count the amuse as a course. Was Sousa cooking himself?
re: Rodzilla
No, our chef (forget his name) has only been there a little over a year, but did a fantastic job. I also mentally questioned the amuse as a course, but I was pretty full at the end, and really didn't need anything else!
re: wizzy99
I just saw on twitter that it was Chad Townsend, I've never had the pleasure - only Sousa and Rubis, but the entire team is very talented.
re: Rodzilla
I got some clarification: Chad Townsend, our Chef de Cuisine, Maggie Meskey, our bar manager, and Tim, your server.

Felicity Dale recently wrote an excellent post in her blog Simply Church: A House Church Perspective in which she responded to an important question, "should we increase community at the expense of being missional?" You can see her post by clicking on the picture to the left.
One of the issues she dealt with was the idea of sequentialism; that is, doing things in a specific planned order. This is not a particularly good ministry practice (though very common). In fact, it can retard the spiritual growth of disciples. I'm not going to rewrite Felicity's blog for her; she did a better job than I can. You should read it yourself and don't miss the interaction in the comments. What I would like to do is give a fresh example of non-sequential discipleship from my own ministry. When I say fresh, I'm talking about this happening less than two hours ago as I write.
Discipling Vitorio in the Harvest
My buddy Toño and I led a guy name Vitorio to the Lord awhile back. You can read that story in Burgers and Jesus. You can read about how Vitorio and Toño´s stories fit in a bigger story in: Best 5 Story Posts of 2010. Toño is a guy I helped lead to the Lord a couple of years ago. I did that with my buddy Ryan and some teachers in our language class. Vitorio has become a part of a church that meets at Cesar's apartment (again part of the bigger story in Best 5 Story Posts of 2010 particularly in Another Story from the Harvest). Vitorio has been accompanying me as I pass out lunches every Friday morning to Hispanic day workers waiting for work. This is an extension of the work Ryan and I originally started over a year ago and how Ryan and I met Cesar in the post Cesar, Man of Peace.
In essence, Vitorio has taken Ryan's place in the ministry. Ryan is still a vital part of the ministry, but he is doing other things. However, part of Ryan's ministry has been reproduced in Vitorio. The Kingdom is growing organically.
Non-Sequential Discipleship
Typically we would think about this sequentially. Toño and I have led Vitorio to Jesus. Now we disciple him until he is "mature enough" to be taught to take a mature person like Ryan's place. We train him in evangelism and then he starts to do evangelism and ministry. Yeah right! It doesn't look anything like that. To give you an example, let me tell you what this morning was like.
At 7:15 AM I went to Cesar's house. Brenda, Cesar's wife, makes over 70 sack lunches per week to pass out to day workers. Then I picked up Vitorio at his apartment. We went to a local restaurant to have breakfast together. While at the restaurant, I asked a simple question, "What is Jesus doing in your life?" An hour long conversation ensued; partly over breakfast and partly while passing out lunches and flyers for our language class.
Here are just a few of the topics we discussed: what is prayer, how do we pray, being a temple of the Holy Spirit, the new covenant, listening to God, responding to God in obedience, reading the Bible as a conversation with Jesus, what is the role of a spiritual community, discernment of other voices (world, flesh, the devil), the Kingdom, Jesus' lordship, how we spread the Kingdom…I could go on. In the process we prayed together, spread the Kingdom through lunches and comments, started to discern God's design for Vitorio's life, gave sacrificially (Vitorio spontaneously gave his lunch to someone else), and listened to God. Those are just some of the things I can remember talking about and doing together. Who knows what else Jesus was doing that I wasn't even aware of?
Let's put all of this another way. Jesus, Vitorio and I shared life together. In the process Jesus was glorified, the Kingdom was announced and both Vitorio and I grew in our faiths. None of it was planned beyond passing out lunches together. Vitorio is just now learning the basics of prayer and reading the Bible, yet he is already involved in intentional Kingdom extention. He doesn't need to reach a certain maturity level to do such a thing. He doesn't need an evangelism class. He needs to be and do with Jesus…and a more experienced friend. Jesus can lead the discipleship process. It will come out of Vitorio and my friendship together.
Am I being intentional? Absolutely. But my intentionality doesn't look like a sequential curriculum; it looks like a few foundational spiritual skills that I train all new disciples in. You can read more about that in Organic Discipleship. My job, as a more experienced brother, is to make disciples of Jesus (Matt. 28:18-20). I point people to Jesus; that's making his disciples. Jesus himself can use Vitorio and my friendship to weave together the curriculum he wants for Vitorio's life. I just need to pay attention to what Jesus is up to and keep pointing Vitorio back to Jesus.
- Did you notice that Vitorio came to Christ partially through Toño´s ministry while I was discipling Toño? Did you note that Toño came to Christ because of Jesus using Ryan and me? Did you note that Ryan and I met Cesar (whose wife makes sandwiches to help us meet more people) and that a church meets at their house? Toño, Vidal and others are a part of that church. How could we plan such a thing sequentially?
- Did you note that a ministry of helping people in need (language, donuts, lunches) is woven together seamlessly with evangelism, discipleship and church planting?
- Can you see how human sequential planning could get in the way of what Jesus is up to?
- What part does human planning take in this kind of ministry? Where does our role leave off and Jesus' role begin? Is that even a good way to ask the question?

A Super Trope to Alternate Universe and Elseworld, "What If?" stories do to fictional Continuity what Alternate History does to Real Life history. The purpose of a what-if is to consider what effects might be caused if some event or invention had come about. For Want of a Nail is a what-if where the difference is a single, tiny change, usually with an effect all out of proportion to the cause. In Spite of a Nail is the opposite; a what-if where a change results in a world almost identical to the original, albeit with a 'hole' in it where the missing or changed element should have been.

Rx drug information, pharmaceutical research, clinical trials, news, and more
Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with antipsychotic drugs are at an increased risk of death. Analyses of seventeen placebo-controlled trials (modal duration of 10 weeks), largely in patients taking atypical antipsychotic drugs, revealed a risk of death in drug-treated patients of between 1.6 to 1.7 times the risk of death in placebo-treated patients. Over the course of a typical 10-week controlled trial, the rate of death in drug-treated patients was about 4.5%, compared to a rate of about 2.6% in the placebo group. Although the causes of death were varied, most of the deaths appeared to be either cardiovascular (e.g., heart failure, sudden death) or infectious (e.g., pneumonia) in nature. Observational studies suggest that, similar to atypical antipsychotic drugs, treatment with conventional antipsychotic drugs may increase mortality. The extent to which the findings of increased mortality in observational studies may be attributed to the antipsychotic drug as opposed to some characteristic(s) of the patients is not clear. Geodon (ziprasidone) is not approved for the treatment of patients with Dementia-Related Psychosis (see WARNINGS).
GEODON® (ziprasidone HCl) CapsulesGEODON® (ziprasidone mesylate) for Injection
GEODON® is available as GEODON Capsules (ziprasidone hydrochloride) for oral administration and as GEODON for Injection (ziprasidone mesylate) for intramuscular injection. Ziprasidone is an antipsychotic agent that is chemically unrelated to phenothiazine or butyrophenone antipsychotic agents.
Ziprasidone is indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia. When deciding among the alternative treatments available for this condition, the prescriber should consider the finding of ziprasidone's greater capacity to prolong the QT/QTc interval compared to several other antipsychotic drugs (see WARNINGS). Prolongation of the QTc interval is associated in some other drugs with the ability to cause torsade de pointes-type arrhythmia, a potentially fatal polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, and sudden death. In many cases this would lead to the conclusion that other drugs should be tried first. Whether ziprasidone will cause torsade de pointes or increase the rate of sudden death is not yet known (see WARNINGS).
Ziprasidone intramuscular is indicated for the treatment of acute agitation in schizophrenic patients for whom treatment with ziprasidone is appropriate and who need intramuscular antipsychotic medication for rapid control of the agitation. "Psychomotor agitation" is defined in DSM-IV as "excessive motor activity associated with a feeling of inner tension." Schizophrenic patients experiencing agitation often manifest behaviors that interfere with their diagnosis and care, e.g., threatening behaviors, escalating or urgently distressing behavior, or self-exhausting behavior, leading clinicians to the use of intramuscular antipsychotic medications to achieve immediate control of the agitation. The efficacy of intramuscular ziprasidone for acute agitation in schizophrenia was established in single-day controlled trials of schizophrenic inpatients (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY). Since there is no experience regarding the safety of administering ziprasidone intramuscular to schizophrenic patients already taking oral ziprasidone, the practice of co-administration is not recommended.

However, few data are available regarding whether interview-based measures are sensitive to treatment-related changes... CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that interview-based cognitive measures such as the SCoRS may be sensitive to changes after 3weeks of treatment in patients with schizophrenia.
