- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/16/2014Always a treat to have a meal at Besito! Awesome guacomole, fun drinks and delicious entrees. I had a fish entree which was perfect!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Anniversary DinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2002Dined on 11/16/2014I was really looking forward to a great margarita and some tasty Mexican food. The $13 partida-only tequila, agave and lime had not the slightest taste of tequila, also no salted rim, they only do that upon request, when you request, they forget. I then tried the patron margarita, same story. The tacos pastor were tasteless and very fatty. The chicken mole enchiladas were not good.The restaurant is so dimly lit you cannot see what you are eating. The guacamole and Mexican chocolate pudding were good.
- Chic Mexican on Long IslandClassyMexicanDined on 11/15/2014A Chic Mexican restaurant on Long Island with multiple locations. Table side guacamole and an excellent tequila selection.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very deliciousjandb11361Dined on 11/10/2014First time at Besito and was very happy. They sat us by the wall of candles which added to our dining experience. Very romantic.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Besito is Amazing!!SThomasDined on 11/10/2014I had a great time at Besito, i would highly recommend for everybody to go there!Special Features:
- Not satisfiedAbcdDined on 11/9/2014I am not sure if we ordered wrong menu or it just a bad restaurant. We went for Restaurant week and I didn't like anything from starters to entree. The desert was good but too pricey for just berries with mango leche. I ordered crab cake and something with chuhuwawa queso for starters and wasn't impressed with either one. Sofias for entree and only ate half and wasted the rest. My husband got steak which was $5 extra but he said it was decent. We spent abt $75 (2 rest. Wk special, 1 glass of wine, and $5 extra for steak) and I felt like I wasted my money.
- Great Food & Margarita'sDan6Dined on 11/9/2014Great food and excellent value for "Restaruant Week". Our server was pleasant and very helpful with explaining the items on the menu. Appetizers came out to soon while we were enjoying the Guacamole. Ordered "Taquitos de Camarones" (shrimp) appetizer but was served the "Flautas de Pollo" (Chicken Taco) appetizer in error. Did not send it back since the others in our party had started to dine. It was not crowded so I can't understand how this happened. Classic Margarita's are the best. Had the Carnitas for dinner which was very good. We are repeat patrons and love Besito..Special Features:
- Not what I rememberMichBri131Dined on 11/8/2014I've been to Besito a few times but it has been at least 2 years since my last visit. I decided to check it out for Restaurant Week on Saturday night only to be told at the table that it had ended at 6PM. The food was loaded with the same melted cheeses that were very oily and not very flavorful. The empinadas were nothing special and really didn't stand out. I ordered the Enchiladas which honestly, had to be sent back because both myself and girlfriend felt the sauce tasted like ketchup and the tortillas they were wrapped in were slimy. We changed it for something else which was better but once again nothing special. Service was excellent and the waiter was very accommodating to our needs. Probably won't return anytime soon.
- Date nightDatenight15Dined on 11/7/2014Besito is incredible. Perfect for date night or special occasions.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- New FindJUanDined on 11/7/2014We were celebrating our anniversary and my wife had selected Besito based on a review she had read. We were very pleased with our dining experience. Waiter was great and the house even gave us each a flute of champagne to help us celebrate. Nice touch. By the way, the pumpkin flan was to die for!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Well worth restaurant week dealStephVIPDined on 11/5/2014The foods included on the fix prix menu were extensive. The only things not included was the guacamole and the filet mignon.... Fair enough...mojitos came with fresh sugar canes.... Simply deelicious!Special Features:
- Excellent Mexican restaurantMookaDined on 11/5/2014I have been wanting to try Besito for a long time. When I saw it on the Restaurant Week list, I knew we had to go. We did have a little trouble finding it. Mapquest sent us to the wrong side of Old Northern Blvd. The one thing we did not like was how dark it was. My husband was using the candle to read the menu until the waiter gave him a flashlight. The nachos are nice and light and the salsa was perfectly seasoned, not too hot and not too mild. I ordered a white sangria. For my appetizer I had the crab cake. I could have licked that plate clean! My entree was the pistachio crusted salmon. For dessert I had the chocolate cake. I absolutely loved my dinner. It was perfect!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ShauVIPDined on 11/5/2014Went for LI restaurant week. The whole menu is available except for the guacamole appetizer and one steakk dish which has a surcharge. Great deal for the price. Food was very tasty and nicely presented. Margharita was excellent and had a variety of specialty drinks. Restaurant is dark so each person gets a small flashlight which they get to take home. Would go back again to try some other dishes since I had avery hard time deciding. Parking lot available.Special Features:
- A Great Dining Spot !!!Snoopy500Dined on 11/2/2014We have dined at Besito many times and always have a wonderful time. The service is consistently warm, caring and professional; the servers are very knowledgable. The food is exceptional. They have a wide variety of dishes with interesting, wonderful flavors. The portions are more than ample, You are treated as if you are a guest in someone's home. A place to return to over and over again !!! A real winner !!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fun fiestaGolfgalDined on 11/2/2014Food is complex and not overly reliant on salt. Fabulous crab cake app and the best grow up chocolate pudding! Service was prompt, courteous and helpful with dairy restriction for one diner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- hungrymomVIPDined on 11/2/2014My favorite restaurant in long island. everything they make is delicious. My only complaint is how dark the restaurant is, but they do hand out pocket flashlites.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- KHKHkhDined on 11/2/2014I would normally recommend this place as I love the food but when we went this past week the power went out after being there for 10 minutes. We still got drinks and guacamole in hopes it would go back on but after an hour with little guidance from management, we decided to leave. They brought us our hand written bill with every single item on it. Just my opinion but if I was management I would have at least apologized and said that a drink or guacamole was on the house. They even charged us for soft drinks. Poor management so I won't be heading back here.Special Features:
- Great real Mexican!LaurpopsDined on 10/31/2014Love coming here. Great food. Amazing drinks. Wish it was a little bigger. Make rsvp!!!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- lavasthiDined on 10/25/2014The main course was very good, but their guacamole was tasteless because the avocados were not riped enough. dissapointedSpecial Features:
- DeliciousJoanna319Dined on 10/24/2014Wonderful experience. We have lived in the area for 6 years and this was our first (but not our last) meal here. They observed our reservation which was wonderful because there appeared to be a wait at the bar. We were seated right away and started off with warm homemade chips and table side guacamole. The meal was amazing and we took enough home for lunch the next day. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A big 'gracias'AnonymousDined on 10/24/2014In mentioning that I was celebrating my first year anniversary, the waitress wasted no time in bringing us complimentary champagne to toast our special occasion. Food and service was excellent as always. Thank you...Special Features:
- less than expectedAfoodcriticDined on 10/23/2014I chose this place because I saw it in Pulse magazine and also read some reviews. Decor was very nice, lighting was a bit dark as many patrons were using their cell phones to see the menu. Taco soup was just ok. We ordered the guacamole made at table side, not bad. I had a good house margarita and my wife tried a tamarind flavored one which was very good. I had the braised short rib (no bone) no flavor at all. My wife's salmon with a mole type sauce was better. Overall, as a first time place, I wasn't impressed. However, the tequila bar seems more promising for dinner. I did mention that it was my birthday on Open table request and waiter wasn't notified.(cake minus candle) Would it hurt to sing a small happy birthday song?I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful dining experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/23/2014The restaurant is decorated beautifully, candle lit and cozy. Food is delicious. Everyone enjoyed their meal. I have had both lunch and dinner at Besito and have never been disappointed. Wait staff is courteous and attentive.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Where to beginWenchVIPDined on 10/19/2014Besit has nice ambiance. I don't 100% agree with the name though; this is more or a Latin restaurant than a Mexican restaurant. I had a classic margarita that was excellent. The queso fundido appetizer was also delicious. The entrees were both a let down. The carne asada tacos had no seasoning AT ALL and were served with one corn tortilla that tore. They could fix this by doubling up on the tortillas. The carnitas were delicious, but not properly prepared. Carnitas are deep fried to make them crisp on the outside and these were just basically roasted pork. They were served smothered in an extremely salty black bean sauce. For the price, have drinks and appetizers here, but save your entree money for another Mexican restaurant.Special Features:
- Very enjoyable dinnerScubyDined on 10/1/2014On a girls' night out we shared 3 dishes, sangria and quac. prepared at the table. All were pleased with the food, service and atmosphere. They even lowered the AC when we asked. Will return and recommend to othersSpecial Features:
- Tequila knowledgableParksDined on 9/28/2014The eats are fantastic. And when paired with a great tequilla it's out of this world. We love our tequela and Eric knows his stuff. It's a great place to taste and talk tequela.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing!!!JenniferDined on 9/27/2014This is my favorite restaurant on long island! Best mexican food I've ever had. Try EVERYTHING! I've never been disappointed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- all hypeOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/24/2014had good Mexican food before & besito's was highly recommended. all hype except for the looks. on a good note we were seated right away but had reservations. night started with mojito's & fresh guacamole. guacamole is nothing special but it's fresh & made table side. wife got the res & told me the sauce was similar to tomato paste in the can. no real flavor & pretty bland, steak was of course very pink inside & we ordered it well done. would have sent it back but didn't like the taste. I got the special which was a fish dish drowned in cheese not much of any flavor. waitress asked if we wanted bottled water/regular, we said regular but got no water at all. waste of gas, time, money, & bad way to end date night after an amazing night out.
- Nice Mexican FlavorfunfordinnerDined on 9/20/2014Love This place. Great place, Great Food, and a great signature cocktail!!!
- Besito is mucho bueno!greatplace2bDined on 9/20/2014The food,service,drinks, and over ambiance was outstanding. Great place to go to for any occasion.Special Features:
- Service done rightLuv2dineDined on 9/20/2014Service was excellent ! Water glasses were always filled, warm chips & salsa were also replenished until food came. Friendly staff. Their cocktails were delish & the side table gaucamole is a MUST. 4 ppl shared 1 appetizer, Queso Fundido, great for cheese lovers. For entree, I highly recommend their fish dishes, Pescado con Pipian y Atole & pescado Veracruzana. The Costillas al Piquin is a nice portion & quite tender. All was great except their mole poblano , dry bland chicken, wrapped in dry corn tortilla with not so great tasting mole sauce, very disappointing. Shared the Flan for dessert, also disappointing, was not smooth & creamy & the tart orange sauce although tasty, does not make sense with it. Despite this, we'd come again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Saturday nightsusheeDined on 9/20/2014We called on the last. minute but were able to get a 5:30 reservation. Lovely evening for eating outside. Frozen margaritas were great as well as the guac.! Suiza and stuffed organic peppers were perfect. Really liked the restaurant!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The Best Mexican Food!LastMateVIPDined on 9/18/2014Arrived to celebrate my birthday with friends at this very special restaurant. Food, service, ambiance are all wonderful, and have remained so over the years. Special thanks to my favorite server, Lothel. His discreet yet watchful presence makes for such a pleasant, carefully served yet uninterrupted dinner.Special Features:
- DisappointedNewyorker16VIPDined on 9/16/2014Besito's decor and Patron display is always nice. Dined at least 5 times and last two times disappointed ordered the Tamale and served luke warm and a little dry. Tortilla Soup was too thick and tasted too much like a black bean soup. Several times the waiter reached over to get plates instead of walking around which resulted in his sleeve touching food. Finally told the manager good response as he apologized and said he appreciates feedback to make things better. Gave us Tres leche dessert on the house nice gesture but it may be the end of my dining thereSpecial Features:
- Love it!kurtzieDined on 9/12/2014I love love love eating at Besito Roslyn! Every time I go there, it is a great experience. They really know how to set the mood and cook delicious, authentic Mexican food. The best on Long Island. Great for parties and special occasions or a romantic night out.Special Features:
- A good stable restaurantPrdkDined on 9/12/2014Great bar, excellent ambiance, good service, excellent guacamole and good food. What's not to like if you like Mexican food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fine PlaceFoodieVIPDined on 9/12/2014Was not wowed by the place since my expectations were high as a result of recommendations. The guacamole was excellent, the special drink of the night tasty, but the food was just ok. I've had better Mexican food at franchise restaurants. I'm surprised at the difficulty in getting a reservation here. I don't think it's worth the wait.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing foodTheVoiceDined on 9/12/2014The food was so great. My mother loved it so much that she wants to go back, even though she normally likes a lot of variety. She also fell in love with the decor/ambiance. The only issue is the tables are too close to other guests.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Besito means kiss...JfoodDined on 9/11/2014And the meal was made with a sweet kiss of perfection! Delicious food, great service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- second time was not the charmOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 9/9/2014This was the second time dining at Besito Roslyn and the first time we had such a great time we decided to come back. We had a horrible experience we waited 20 minute for a waiter to acknowledge us then we had to constantly ask for water the service was unacceptableSpecial Features:

Unfortunately Eric Holder has spawned a few disciples of his lawlessness. We in VA found that out after the Dems won the AG position last fall. He is a clone of Holder and a nightmare for VA. It seems like NC may have another clone, very scary to think there are so many despots out there.

Bill Glass, current Princeton city councilman, serving in place two, has filed for re-election. As of press time, no opponents have filed against Glass.
"I hope to continue the progress we have started the last couple of years with regards to street repairs along with retail and commercial growth," he said. "We have established the beginning of a street maintenance program and have begun to see some of the results of this work. For example, the Hazelwood project, the upcoming Willow Lane repairs as well as the start of repairs last year on Greenfield Acre that will have the second phase done this coming year.
On a commercial and retail front, I would like for the city to continue to provide the environment and incentives to continue to grow our commercial and retail business so we can begin to take some of the burden off the property owners of Princeton. I would also like to see the city work closer with our local business and Chamber of Commerce to help promote their businesses and to promote the city."

Winner of 11 Academy Awards including "Best Picture" and "Best Director," "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy came to a stunning conclusion with the theatrical release of "The Return of the King."
The final battle for Middle-earth begins as Frodo and Sam, led by Gollum, continue their dangerous mission toward the fires of Mount Doom in order to destroy the One Ring. Aragorn struggles to fulfill his legacy as he leads his outnumbered followers against the growing power of the Dark Lord Sauron, so that the Ring-bearer Frodo may complete his quest.
Based on J.R.R. Tolkien's epic adventure of good versus evil, "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" is the ultimate achievement by director Peter Jackson in his acclaimed film trilogy.

Non-cyclical sectors slightly out performed cyclical sectors during the quarter. In technology, the U.S. is improving, Europe is still not strong and developing markets lag. The healthcare sector improved, but it is still a question mark for the second half of the year. As the economic recovery matures, we have seen a fairly consistent pattern
Broad measures of cost inflation (PPI and CPI) growth rates have remained near 2% for the past three years. Sharp increases have occurred in isolated areas like trucking, but the effect is far-reaching.

While most equity markets had positive first half performance, we still expect modest acceleration in growth ahead for the global economy.

Writing is a hobby of mine; one the many delightful pastimes that has been put on the back burner. It's a way for my brain to defrag, comparable to how the computer gets overloaded and needs reorganizing, so do my thoughts. Almost nightly, insomnia steals my precious sleep, plaguing me with nonsensical scenarios, worries, what-ifs and if-onlys. I toss and turn, only to become more frustrated and upset that my overactive mind won't let me rest. The cycle only gets worse, as the morning shortly arrives and my alarm screams at me to wake up. 'Grrr... I am awake, alarm!' Begrudgingly, I roll...

Runner Up Best NZ Beer Venue - Beer and Brewer Mag People's Choice Awards 2013
The Sprig and Fern Tinakori Road Tavern is serving Nelson sunshine in a
glass right in the heart of Wellington. This beautiful old building has
been lovingly renovated and now is the favourite watering hole for
hundreds of locals.
The Sprig and Fern Tinakori Rd Tavern in Thorndon, Wellington is simply the best place to relax, have fun and drink superbly good, naturally brewed, craft beer, ale or cider. The tavern has 19 taps with a wide range of craft beers from Blonde to Porter and also seasonal brews and ciders. The beer you drink in the tavern is brewed in the same way as the beer that won 10 medals at the BrewNZ International Beer Awards in 2011 in Wellington and 4 medals at the Australian International Beer Awards in 2012.
Sprig and Fern taverns do not have TVs or pokies. We won't allow unwanted distractions to get in the way of good beer and a good yarn.
The tavern has an off-license and 2l flagons are available to fill or you can bring your own vessel. We will fill them up for you to take away and enjoy.
If you need a bite to eat the tavern serves simple bar snacks (incl. the very popular curly fries). Cosa Nostra deliver pizzas and Indus do a curry night on Thursdays.
We hope you liked the photos from a Friday evening at the Tinakori Rd Sprig and Fern Tavern. Pop in when you are next in Thorndon, say hello and try a few beers. You might find you become a regular rather quickly :-)
The building work has all but been completed, beer is on it's way to Wellington from Nelson and the taps will be tested this week. Just the final Council paperwork then doors open... Like the Tinakori Rd facebook page for the very latest info and news from the new Wellington Sprig.
Can you imagine sitting here with a beer or 3 berry cider watching the Wellington world go by?
The weatherboard exterior has been totally repainted.
Beautifully bright, airy interior with the old stove to add character.
You can just imagine seeing you mates outside through the window and saying "nah, stop for a minute, come in and have a pint"
We will keep you up to date with the renovation work. Also visit and like the Tinakori Rd faceboook page.
As most people are used to seeing the former Botanic Cafe and Restaurant from the road.
Looking out onto the street from the bright interior.
The former cafe fittings before removal.
A hive of activity as the building gets remodelled to create the "Sprig and Fern" feel - no TVs, no pokies and no pool table. Just expertly brewed craft beers and good conversation.
GIB Board going up.
The old stove is a real piece of history and looks great with the brick surround.
The name of the old cafe is removed in readiness for the Sprig and Fern name to go up.

President Obama talks with staff during a meeting in the Oval Office, Aug. 28, 2014 (Photo by Pete Souza)
For good or ill, President Obama sometimes offers candid, shorthand assessments without much regard for how they'll be perceived by the political world – or how easily the comments might be taken out of context. From a distance, I get the sense he just doesn't care what offhand phrase might send the Beltway into a tizzy and generate a half-dozen Politico items. After nearly six years on the job, Obama just seems to have bigger things on his mind.
But those of us who regularly swim in these waters – and who've internalized Republican talking points to the point at which we can visualize Fox News segments before they even air – tend to see the pointless uproars coming.

Alarm is growing in Kiev and the West over Russia's role in eastern Ukraine. But what is Russian President Vladimir Putin trying to achieve?
The indications are clear that Russia is being more confident and less discreet about the presence of its troops and equipment in eastern Ukraine.
As well as sightings of Russian tanks, and reports of Russian paratroopers not only captured by Ukraine but also killed "while carrying out their duties", statements by separatist leaders have changed too.
After months of calling for assistance from Russia, separatist leaders now say that they can "do without outside help". All this could indicate that Russian planners felt the military situation of Russian-backed separatists was severe enough to need more direct assistance.
Equally, it could be that Russia is simply less concerned at this stage about discretion and deniability.

Was I the last person on planet earth to see this splendiferous suit? I was? Okay. And am I the last person on earth to learn that the media didn't listen to a single word he said, they were too busy commenting on the suit? I am? Okay……
This weekend marks the unofficial end of summer as well as a chance for us to reflect on the achievements of American workers. This year, workers across the country have a lot to celebrate, thanks in part to a series of executive orders signed by President Obama, including the Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces Executive Order, which cracks down on federal contractors who violate labor laws.
In a significant step towards greater accountability for private contractors, corporations will be required to report their labor violations in updates to government agencies every six months, and contractors will also be responsible for making sure any subcontractors are playing by the rules as well. Additionally, the report directs contractors not to require employees to enter into pre-dispute arbitration agreements for sexual assault and harassment crimes, as well as violations of the Civil Rights Act.
Most importantly, any contractor that's found to violate labor laws will be restricted from competing for certain contracts, and government agencies will have additional guidance on how to take labor violations into account in their process of awarding contacts.

Two police officers are no longer working at their departments due to their actions during the protests in Ferguson.
A Glendale police officer suspended last Friday after commenting on Facebook that he thought Ferguson protesters should be "put down like rabid dogs," has been fired, officials say.
Meanwhile, a St. Ann police lieutenant resigned Thursday after he pointed an assault rifle at protesters and cursed at them, officials said. Lt. Ray Albers had worked for the department for 20 years.

I went out yesterday for a minute for a worky thing and didn't get home until after one in the morning – does this phenomenon happen anyone else on a regular basis?
Any way, wasn't ready for sleep, so began watching PBS's Emmett Till documentary that I'd recorded a while ago. There were so many details about the case that I'd forgotten, and I'd forgotten too what an extraordinary woman Mamie Till was.
The Emmett Till and Michael Brown cases were, of course, hugely different, but they had the same outcome: ie murdered black boys. And, I fear, Michael Brown's family will receive as much justice: none.
What struck me last night, though, was the part about the locals raising money – a lot of money – for Emmett's murderers, and I thought of the people donating huge money to Darren Wilson.
Not content with cheerleading the killers of black boys, they are intent on helping them profit from their crimes too. For reasons of pure, unadulterated hate.
So, I went to sleep thinking, some things just never ***ing change.

President Barack Obama's lawyers are finishing months of work on a legal rationale for unilateral action on immigration that will have to withstand Republican assaults in the courts and during the congressional election campaign.
With a self-imposed deadline three weeks away, Obama has kept his deliberations closely held, even among White House advisers, while requesting information from staff, according to an administration official. The legal review of his authority hasn't been presented to Obama yet, the official said.
No announcement is likely until after Obama returns from a trip next week to Estonia and Wales, according to the official…

I'm seriously late posting this after a crazy week or two – apologies Tally, and thank you!
The US is the only country on Earth where it's legal to make a profit on someone's illness. I understand why; it's a giant conflict of interest. But because of that profit, the system is still out of reach for many, especially in red states with asshole GOP governors who refused the Federal Medicaid expansion funds.
So…… what if something like the West Africa Ebola outbreak happens here?
If EVERYONE doesn't have affordable access to healthcare, how do you contain such an outbreak?
As awesome as the ACA is, Obamacare doesn't cover all our citizens yet, and we must clear the way for everyone in this country to have access to healthcare, yes, even illegal aliens and people visiting here from other countries.
Viruses don't care where you were born, how much money you make, what color your skin is, what sex you are, what religion (if any) you practice, what your sexual orientation is, who you voted for, what flavor of ice cream you prefer, or where you live.
They're equal opportunity killers, and you aren't magically protected from getting a virus from someone who is uninsured, even if you are.
The US is a sitting duck when it comes to this, and healthcare access should be a National Security issue. We're the country who's population never take vacation, and suck it up when we're sick by going to work anyway, less we appear weak. By doing so, we're spreading our germs everywhere, allowing the virus to spread far and wide, mutating in the process.
It would be easy to lay us low between our work-at-all-costs attitude, and lack of access to affordable care.
There's a reason other countries have Nationalized health care systems, and don't drive their citizens into financial ruin if they get sick. It's better, and healthier when people just go to the doctor when they're sick, then go home and get better.
It's only in the US where working yourself to death is a badge of honor, and denying citizens health care is acceptable to some.

CBC NEWS: While Stephen Harper is still receptive to the tweets of Homer Simpson, he has stopped following the Russian prime minister on Twitter. Earlier this month, CBC News pointed out that the Simpson family's patriarch and Dmitri Medvedev were among the noteworthy people and organizations that Harper followed on his Twitter account @pmharper. What made Medvedev's inclusion particularly noteworthy was that he was the only foreign leader followed by Harper and that Medvedev's tweets continued to be followed by Harper despite the tough criticism coming from the Conservative government about Moscow's actions in Ukraine. Asked about the sudden unfollowing, Carl Vallée, a spokesman for the Prime Minister's Office, said in an email: "The Putin regime's aggressive behaviour in illegally occupying Ukraine speaks for itself. We have no interest in following Russian propaganda."

MASHABLE: DONETSK, Ukraine – Strelkov is out. The military commander of Russian-backed rebels in eastern Ukraine, who ordered the executions of at least three men by firing squad and boasted on social media about shooting Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 out of the sky, resigned on Thursday, according to the news agency of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's republic (DNR). Igor Girkin, a Russian nationalist and former security service agent better known by his nom de guerre "Strelkov," or "Shooter," stepped down after conflicting reports on Thursday that he had been severely wounded in battle near the city of Torez, Donetsk region..continued

Foreign Policy: Since the White House announced plans to bomb Iraq on Aug. 7, a predictable set of Washington players has taken the opportunity to blame the Obama administration's missteps for the capture of broad swaths of Iraq by radical jihadists. But while U.S. jets pound the Islamic State's positions in northern Iraq, President Barack Obama has been firing back at critics at home. When a reporter asked Obama last Saturday if withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq had caused the current situation there, the president pointed the finger back at the Bush administration and its supporters. "So that entire analysis is bogus and is wrong. But it is frequently peddled around here by folks who oftentimes are trying to defend previous policies that they themselves made," the president said. Meanwhile, the president's critics, including notably Sen. John McCain, have accused Obama of not just doing too little in Syria or Iraq, but having "lost" a war in Iraq that George W. Bush had "won."…
The task for anyone concerned about the parlous developments in the Middle East is to persuade Americans that the previous administration's blunders over Saddam Hussein's illusory weapons of mass destruction should not prejudice the current administration's efforts to deal with the very real threat of a brutal, highly capable extremist group attempting to take over the heart of the Middle East. That change in American public opinion won't happen as long as proponents of greater U.S. intervention in Iraq run away from the reality of the Bush intervention. Indeed, the charge of having "lost" the Iraq War only prompts critics of that war, like Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, to issue pointed reminders of the litany of Bush-era Iraq mistakes. "We're stuck listening to the very same neocons who pushed us into the Iraq War in the first place, as they try to plunge our military into another foreign misadventure," Reid said on the Senate floor…..

President Obama Talks to Thomas L. Friedman About Iraq, Putin and Israel
President Obama's hair is definitely grayer these days, and no doubt trying to manage foreign policy in a world of increasing disorder accounts for at least half of those gray hairs. (The Tea Party can claim the other half.) But having had a chance to spend an hour touring the horizon with him in the White House Map Room late Friday afternoon, it's clear that the president has a take on the world, born of many lessons over the last six years, and he has feisty answers for all his foreign policy critics.
Obama made clear that he is only going to involve America more deeply in places like the Middle East to the extent that the different communities there agree to an inclusive politics of no victor/no vanquished. The United States is not going to be the air force of Iraqi Shiites or any other faction. Despite Western sanctions, he cautioned, President Vladimir Putin of Russia "could invade" Ukraine at any time, and, if he does, "trying to find our way back to a cooperative functioning relationship with Russia during the remainder of my term will be much more difficult." Intervening in Libya to prevent a massacre was the right thing to do, Obama argued, but doing it without sufficient follow-up on the ground to manage Libya's transition to more democratic politics is probably his biggest foreign policy regret.

Most of the platforming is top-shelf stuff, and the few issues with the controls notwithstanding, I had a great time with the game. Fifteen dollars is a bit high, though, for the amount of pleasure most folks will likely mine from the experience.
Old school playability, sweet graphics on one hand, and a way too short lifespan on the other. Retro is maybe on, but there are a lot of better titles to try. [Issue#192]
Rocket Knight requires perseverance and perfectionism, but offers nothing in return.

May 1, 2011Of all the retro 2.5D platformers out there, Rocket Knight is one of the best by far. It is the sequel to a sleeper-hit Genesis game, and it *feels* like a Genesis game in the very best of ways. The controls are excellent; Sparkster is one agile little guy and zipping around is a joy. The graphics are everything you'd expect from a newer 2D title, with excellent animation and nice layers of 3D detail in the background. The game is charming, and all of the characters have a lot of personality. The completion time is only 5-6 hours, but that's perfectly normal for a 2D title like this. Like many 2D platformers, though, there are goodies to collect and many other reasons to revisit past levels, so if you want more from the game it is certainly there. Overall, I felt it was easily worth the $15 asking price- it may be short, but it's sweet, and the kind of game I'll be going back to replay again and again. Also, I would use a 360 controller- it has native support for them and the controls are excellent. There is a demo on the game's Steam page, so check it out!… Expand

ps, beer recs invited, too.

I've always had an entree salad, but warning, get the dressing on the side, otherwise it's drowned. And they are very fresh.

I just went to pull up the menu to refresh my memory and I don't see my favorite goat cheese ravioli or Reuben sandwich listed. Those two dishes were my go-to's - the ravioli was served with pine nuts and spinach in a brown butter sauce, and the Reuben was huge, stacked thick with corned beef or turkey (they offered both versions). How disappointing....I hope those items haven't really been discontinued....
Of what is still on the menu, I think their version of southwest egg rolls is one of the best I've had in a restaurant. And I agree with ipsedixit - they do a very solid hamburger. I haven't been there for brunch.

Horny hairy man
Posted on December 20, 2012. Filed under Bears.
What you see here is fucking unreal. This is exactly what you have been wanting to see. You know it is. There is no other way to say it. You can slice and dice it any way you want. This is why you surf the internet. You can't get enough hairy men. You're going to see more hairy dudes than your penis can handle. This guy, he's just one of many. He's a guy that loves to show off his body. A body that you'd love to lick from head to toe. You haven't seen anything yet. Just wait until that big fat cock flops out of his underwear. When you see that you'll be cooking with gas then!
