Most of the photos on this site were extracted from reference images (high-resolution tiffs, 20 to 200 megabytes in size) from the Library of Congress research archive. (To query the database click here.) Many were digitized by LOC contractors using a Sinar studio back. They are adjusted by your webmaster for contrast and color in Photoshop before being downsized and turned into the jpegs you see here.
Vintage photos of:
New York circa 1922. "Farraham worshiping." Five photos of this artsy looking lady bear a name that might also be transcribed as Farnham or Fanshaw. Who will be the first to identify her? George Grantham Bain Collection. View full size.
The faddish young lady is posing with a Chinese or Japanese shrine figure of an emaciated Buddha or monk meditating in a grotto. Small devotional sculptures of this type were mostly made of painted and gilded dry lacquer over carved wood. The figure's beard is a little strange in that context, and perhaps points to a Chinese Buddhist saint or Daoist sage rather than to a Buddha figure such as Sakyamuni.
The patterned paper panels behind her, by the way, are the back lining of a Japanese Export folding screen, as seen in one of the other photos Dave posted for label comparisons. And her rather naughty transparent dress appears to have been made from an Egyptian tribal woman's netted scarf spangled with small bands of silver foil, a popular tourist souvenir of the day and still used like this by American belly dancing hobbyists.
But the young lady is almost certainly posturing for the camera in a fashionable way rather than performing an actual religious meditation practice. Popular American curiosity about "exotic" foreign religions increased after World War I, but she might have posed as readily with an Eqyptian figure as an Asian one. A few years earlier, after all, there was Theda Bara posed "meditating" over a stage prop skeleton.
from the good folks at sallyjamesfarnham.org
[Obviously not the same person. - Dave]
My guess is that that would be a Buddhist or Daoist figure, in an early example of gratuitous Western orientalism.
From [who?] at sallyjamesfarnham.org:
I took a closer look at the other portraits of the woman seemingly labeled Farnham and do not believe these are of her daughter, Julia. I have an image somewhere from this period and would be happy to send it.
My mind kept drifting to your email and the script that may say "Farnham." I believe I may have seen a similar notation before and will check on it when I return. I also have some studio shots of Sally's studio/apartment. I will see if there may be similar objects to link these images to SJF.
In 1932 Julia Farnham, "New York heiress" and daughter of the sculptor Sally Farnham, secretly married a New York mounted police officer whom she had met on the Central Park bridle path while they were riding their respective horses. So it might be her. Although there's no mention of her in the New York Times prior to the wedding.
[From the NYT: "Captain Meehan is 49 years old; the former Miss Farnham is considerably younger than her husband." Now, who out there has a decent photo of Julia Farnham? - Dave]
Well, the name on the negative is "Farnham," for sure. I spend my days deciphering old documents and that is most definitely "Farnham."
And I can tell you that she most definitely isn't Zoroastrian, and quite apart from the fact that Zoroastrians don't worship idols, that is a Chinese or Japanese sculpture.
If she were Zoroastrian, she would look like this family.
I had been wondering if the photos might be of Irene Castle. On further reflection I don't think so but I am wondering if it might possibly be Sally Farnham's daughter. Farnham was married to George Paulding Farnham, designer for Tiffany's and from a very wealthy and well-established family.
King Viagra, long before his secrets were discovered.
She could be a Zoroastrian, and the idol represents Faravahar. This doesn't have anything to do with the other four photos, though, so there's still a mystery.
Hmm. The other photos you link to below show her as perhaps a musician or dancer. In any case definitely not the sculptor Sally Farnham.
is that thing she is venerating? I hope this turns out to be some sort of show person and not a weird cult.

House GOPer: "We Want to Make a Deal They Can't Refuse"
If House Republicans want to avoid the appearance that they're running an extortion racket, maybe it would it would be a good idea to refrain from talking like Mafiosi.
Rep. John Fleming (R-LA) told reporters Tuesday that part of the House Republican calculus in its plan to re-open the government and raise the debt limit was trying to leverage the Thursday default deadline to their advantage in their back-and-forth with the Senate.
"We want to make a deal that they can't refuse, and we're running out of time," Fleming said after a two-hour GOP conference meeting Tuesday morning. "Timing is very important here. They're going to be more motivated to take this up. Otherwise, they miss the Thursday deadline."

Who's The Greatest?
It's hard to turn on the TV nowadays and not hear Tom Brady, Eli Manning or Peyton Manning being compared to each other. Is Brady the greatest of all time? Has Eli moved into the elite quarterback status? Is this the end for Peyton, or does he have a few more years in the tank?

I take the designers on a field trip to the Armory Track and Field Training Center in Washington Heights in the upper reaches of Manhattan. It contains the largest indoor track in the world and is the center for Olympic training for track and field events. There, we meet U.S. Olympian Apolo Ohno who presents the designers with their challenge: Create a womenswear look for the opening ceremony of the Summer Olympics. An additional highlight of our field trip is our visit to the National Track and Field Museum, which contains a rich resource of materials to help inform their designs. (But did some of the designers interpret the museum's historical images a little too literally?) The designers have 30 minutes to sketch in the museum. Then, we're off to MOOD with a budget of $150. And the designers have until the end of the day to complete their design.
Appropriately, and still thrilling, Apolo is our guest judge!

Both awarded a four-star rating by Golf Digest, the Outlaw and Posse courses at Paradise Pointe Golf Complex hug the jagged waterline of Smithville Lake, jutting out onto peninsulas to incorporate picturesque coves. Sculpted into the landscape in 1982, the original Posse course leads golfers over rolling bluegrass fairways that present multiple opportunities for golfers to appreciate the lake's grandeur and make bets with willing waterfowl. The Outlaw course, characterized by zoysia fairways, large greens, and ample opportunities to bask in the maritime surroundings, was added 12 years later. Wind makes for a formidable foe on both courses, placing a premium on proper club selection and choice of ball flight.
Posse Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 72 course * Total length of 6,768 yards from the back tees * Course rating of 71.8 from the back tees * Course slopes of 125 from the back tees
Outlaw Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 72 course * Total length of 7,016 yards from the back tees * Course rating of 74.3 from the back tees * Course slope of 138 from the back tees
For more than 20 years, Carolyn and Buddy Raasch have been coaxing plump pumpkins out of the soil of their 80-acre working farm and sharing the harvest with guests. Visitors can hop aboard the hayride and meander through the 50 acres of pumpkin patch, seeking out the perfect gourd for jack-o'-lantern features or fitting atop a middle-school principal's head. Rabbits, goats, peacocks, and mules extend heads and paws for a good scratching at the petting farm, and speedy swine entertain onlookers during Uncle Lester's pig races. After skirting down giant slides and navigating a mind-bending bale maze, pintsize patrons can foster fall-time creativity by crafting scarecrows and enrolling them in art school. Families can celebrate fall weekends with the hard-rock anthems of Cousin Herald and his music show. To take a taste of the farm home with them, guests can swing by the country store to pick up fresh produce, cookbooks, and household items, or stop at the Red Barn Cafe to enjoy cider slush and homemade fudge or sample fine wines.
Amid 20 acres of pastures and trails, the three barns and century-old home of Linden Hill Stables perch in the shade of mature trees, granting an idyllic setting for horse-riding lessons, birthday parties, and children's day camps. Property owner Lisa Hillmer tends to the horses each day, calling upon a lifetime of experience in training and showing American saddlebred horses. Through individually tailored riding lessons, Lisa helps students achieve personal goals, such as riding comfortably for enjoyment or participating in competitions. Her helpful staff also assists in boarding horses and monitoring kids at day camp. Students are required to wear long pants and closed-toe shoes while atop one of Linden Hills' well-trained steeds, their own horse, or a 1,000-pound housecat.
The no-frills style of workouts adopted by the trainers at Combat CrossFit / Northland Strength and Conditioning perhaps stems from the fact that the business's founders first operated out of their garage. But even though the workouts are raw, they still have something for everyone. Today, in their expansive, unadorned, warehouse-style gym space, the coaches prepare first-timers with four 45-minute fundamentals classes that give students a grounding in the CrossFit philosophy while showing them proper exercise technique and how to avoid injury.
After students complete the fundamentals courses, they move on to the main CrossFit classes. Daily CrossFit routines involve a warm up and workout of the day, which the trainers constantly change to keep fresh, much like milk or opinions on whether pugs are cute.
As they enter the training circuit at Curves, female guests come face-to-face with the smiles of other women. And just as points on a circle share a common distance from the circle's center, workout participants share the experiences of those nearby by trading stations throughout the 30-minute training session. Thirty seconds is spent on a piece of strength-training equipment built for feminine frames and designed to work two opposing muscle groups with a single movement. Exercisers then move on to a recovery station, where they run, jog, or dance to maintain heart rates and keep platforms in place during momentary losses of gravity.
The B&B Windsor 10 entertains moviegoers with cinematic shrines to elegant art-deco-inspired design, modern cinematic technology, and cushy seating. Wall-to-wall screens flood the eyes with even the most minute plot points and DTS digital surround sound in select auditoriums ensures that every car chase, merchandise-friendly catchphrase, and doomed love affair set in space is clearly heard. Select theatres embrace viewers with high-back rocker seats, arranged in stadium-style seating for optimum screen-seeing abilities.

Thx to debono9 for the heads up. There is a fan translation going for Miles Edgeworth 2 at this location: [z11.invisionfree.com/court_records].
According to wikipedia article: "In January 2013, Svensson was again asked about.. Gyakuten Kenji 2 localization, and he responded… there were no news to report, and that all Ace Attorney resources, especially localization ones, were focused on Ace Attorney 5.[17] It was widely assumed that Gyakuten Kenji 2 wasn't localized due to poor sales but producer Motohide Eshiro stated "The main reason was just scheduling… Also, the staff for Ace Attorney Investigations 2—after they finished developing the game, they were disbanded and went to different teams, so they weren't in a position to localize."[18]"
It looks like the commercial localization was cancelled so now fans have taken it up upon themselves to do the localization, [see gbatemp.com].
Check out the Case 3 song + eng subbed:
Current progress.
Quoting Auryn from 22nd June 2013:
"In short then:
Case specific graphics: completed all but inserted only case 1 (and probably 2).
Common graphics: done
Voices (case specific): done but not inserted yet.
Common text: done and inserted
Case specific text: Case 1/2 complete and inserted, case 3 WIP.
Literal translation: continuing case 3 and big jump forward expected while/end of the summer
Localization/insertion: same as above
ASM work: throw back but or no affect on the progress or a big boost expected (no timeline for this)
Bug fixing: expected to be completed next month.
Release date: unknow
Release version: unknow
Cases covered by the patch on first release: The first release will be a partial patch for sure and will include Case 1 complete.
Release compatibility: emulator and real hardware targeted (if your flashcard can not play the AP patched japanese rom, you will probably not be able to play the translation either!)"
A partial patch containing Case 1 Completed will be appearing soon (probably end of summer?).
You can follow the progress of the translation here: [gbatemp.com]
there's an article on kotaku
"Why Ace Attorney Investigations 2 Never Made It To America"
also forgot to mention, the fan translators are going to make sure the game works on emulator as well.
i need the link download the game please
is this a DS game?
As if the box art didn't give that away.
Luk guis wee hav a genus heer
Jk, no one could be that illiterate.
MoeNovel has so much time to desecrate If My Heart Had Wings and even rewrote most of the story but they don't have time to actually translate a VN that is ALL-AGES and has a good story. Instead, they choose to butcher a 18+ VN into a All-ages VN, ignoring the All-age VN that was there for grabs.
Probably due to all sorts of licensing mumbo jumbo. (Capcom game)
I know I would have loved for them to localize this game, it would have given me something great to laugh at.
I'm currently watching the translation video by dowolf on youtube. this game is epic! shame that they cancel this.

Hey, what about the translation state? How is it going? :)

Political chatter from DC and NYC, the amNewYork way
Use Bush???
Hillary admitted to the need for careful thought on how she would possibly use GW Bush during her administration.
And Obama gave a thoughtful reply. He would prefer to use Bush Sr because he implemented wise foreign policy during his administration.
They both answered better than I wouldve, i.e., Hell-to-the-NAW! I would send him on a foreign mission to a disserted island for a four-year assignment. Psst! Its Top Secret Mr. Bush. You cant tell anyone! He would buy it.

The bathrooms are clean and adequate. I liked have a fridge in the room, as well as an ironing board and iron. The hotel provided good information about the area and places of interest. The breakfast was quite well done, compared to others. I thought it was priced a bit too high.

As someone who hasn't yet tired of the Flaming Lips' big-hearted grown-up whimsy, I keep trying to find ways to excuse the half-assedness of the band's new Flight Test EP: "They've been busy on the road becoming the aw-shucks Gallaghers of major-label art-rock"; "You can't expect full-blown brilliance from a hunk of stopgap product only really intended for fans"; "They're working on that Christmas on Mars movie that'll probably hit theaters the same weekend as The Matrix Remembered." But the thing is just tired: humdrum covers of Kylie Minogue, Beck and Radiohead tunes whose potential seems limitless but whose value is limited, two new songs whose titles (including "Thank You Jack White [For the Fiber-Optic Jesus That You Gave Me]") promise genius but whose music delivers modest charm, and a Scott Hardkiss remix of Yoshimi's "Do You Realize??" that actually is pretty fun. Still, show up at the Granada with high hopes and you won't likely be disappointed; after a spell backing the relatively subdued Beck, Wayne Coyne's probably just dying to douse your ass with fruit juice and confetti. And don't miss openers the Starlight Mints, who also hail from the Lips' demented corner of Oklahoma; Built on Squares, their nifty new album, is a bright blast of strings-laden psych-pop that doesn't sound as much like the Lips as the circumstantial evidence would suggest.

King George County-and game officials-encourage residents to shoot any coyotes they see
Coyotes are growing in population and pose a threat to other animals, including pets and livestock.
Visit the Photo Place
By CATHY DYSON
King George County officials have made it clear that it's fine to shoot coyotes, even with high-powered rifles that aren't allowed during hunting season.
State game officials also encourage residents to shoot any coyote that wanders into their gun sights. The wild canines aren't native to Virginia, and they can pose a threat to smaller game animals such as rabbits, squirrels and wild turkeys, as well as livestock and even pets.
"If you can shoot a coyote, by all means, do it, as long as it's a safe and ethical shot," said Mike Dye, a district wildlife biologist with the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries.
"We have no problems with it, absolutely not."
The growing population--or colonization, as Dye puts it--of coyotes in the Fredericksburg region has been discussed numerous times in recent years. The animals are native to the West, but started showing up in Virginia counties in the 1980s and seem to have spread throughout the state.
With no natural predators, they adapt quickly in varied environments, from the sheep-filled hills of the Shenandoah Valley to the urbanized area of Rock Creek Park, Md., where they were first spotted seven years ago.
"If a fox is a dog with a bachelor's degree, then a coyote is a dog with a master's degree," said Ken Perrotte, a King George resident who writes an outdoors column for The Free Lance-Star. "They're very intelligent, very efficient hunters."
Perrotte recently asked King George supervisors to clarify the county's ordinance on shooting coyotes, which are considered a nuisance species in Virginia.
County Attorney Matt Britton gave his interpretation of state and local ordinances Tuesday night.
"Bottom line is you can shoot coyotes any time, except on Sundays, if you want to, and you can use a high-powered rifle to do it," Britton said.
Supervisors were satisfied with his opinion and decided not to change any wording in a local ordinance. They had considered putting coyotes into the same category as groundhogs.
The state also has declared them nuisances, and residents can use high-powered rifles to shoot them any time of the year except during deer season.
The reasoning behind that, Britton said, is that someone will climb into a tree stand and claim he's shooting groundhogs when he's actually hunting deer.
The Code of Virginia considers these animals and birds to be nuisance species. No hunting license is required to shoot them.
house mouse
Norway rat
black rat
feral hog
European starling
English (house) sparrow
Under state law, these species can be killed at any time and in any manner that is legal under state and local laws. It is not legal
Coyotes typically are more of a threat to livestock and wild animals than to pets because they usually avoid human contact, said Mike Dye with the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries.
He suggests that farmers use strong fencing and guard animals, such as Great Pyrenees dogs or donkeys, to ward off coyotes.
In more urban areas, homeowners should keep all trash in tightly closed garbage cans, avoid leaving pet food outside and not let their pets run loose to avoid contact with coyotes, according to the National Park Service.
In 2008, the Virginia Citizens Defense League reported that 17 Virginia counties had bounties on coyotes. Localities from the Shenandoah Valley to the southwestern portion of the state paid $25 to $75 for each coyote killed.
Tough budget times may have caused some counties to drop the program. Closer to Fredericksburg, two hunt clubs in Fauquier County still pay bounties.
The Casanova Hunt and Old Dominion Hounds, which merged with the Rappahannock Hunt last year, pay $150 for each coyote killed on land the members hunt. They don't want people from outside their hunting areas bringing them coyotes, and they accept the animals only from hunters they know, said a spokesman at Clark Brothers, a gun shop near Warrenton.

I have been tanking since level 65. My gs has gotten to 5422 in tanking gear. Now I have a ton of triumph badges lying around waiting to be used. I'm debating about getting into dps for giggles. With the gear I currently have on a single target I'm doing about 1k dps as fury and I get about 1500 as arms. Probley because I just don't understand how fury works.
If I move into pvp and buy the triumph badge gear for pvp will I be sitting at enough resilance to not get my self face rolled? What arms spec works best for a pvp setup? Should I be gemming for resilance,arp or stamina? Or is strength crit a big thing to use. I have pvp'd but never on a dps class. I would most likely be playing with a ret pally. I know that's not ideal but it's who I have.

- he forgot my life entrebeentheredonethatDined on 10/24/2014Ambiance was nice roasted garlic was delicious but our server forgot to order my entre. After he brought it he left an enormous pepper mill and cheese grater next to my plate. He never checked back to see how the risotto was or to remove the pepper mill or cheese grater I ended up taking my food to go. It seems that poor service really can spoil what should have been a great experience. I would like a different server if I ever went back.Special Features:

- Romatic DinnergillergeeDined on 10/4/2014When I reservced via "Open Table" I asked for a quiet romantic table. The owner gave us two choices with one being a table for two away from the main seating area at the windows overlooking the bay. I was perfect!Special Features:
- A little disappointed...moso18Dined on 10/3/2014We made reservations for a romantic dinner. Upon arrival our table was not ready. We had to stand & wait for over 10 mins. The atmosphere would have been perfect if there hadn't been a large, loud party in the dining room. When our table was finally ready, they seated us away from the main area in a spot overlooking the bay, but it was a very cool, rainy night & the a/c vent was right above us & blew cold air at us the whole time. We were freezing. On a positive note, our waiter Russell, was very efficient and friendly. He never left us for too long. Yet knowing that we were trying to have a romantic dinner, he left us alone at the right times. The food was average. Portions were small for the price. I expected it would have been tastier.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- NOT Fine DiningsanddcDined on 8/24/2014Disappointing. Calamari and shrimp putanesca was not available so ordered the famous roasted garlic appetizer, which was too large, visually unappealing, bread was soggy. Tomato bocconcini salad was bland. Tomatoes were woody. I had the Veal Contadina, and my husband the Veal Mare e Monti. These were essentially the same dish, same veggies, with minor variations with shrimp and cream in the Mare e Monti. Totally uninspired creations. Flavours were okay, but wore thin after a few bites. Portions were large, veal very tender, but boring food. There was a definite disconnect with our server. He seemed distracted and quite bored with the whole service; so were we. Outdoor evening setting was nice. We made the best of it, but won't go back again

HOwever after finishing our appetizers our main meal took about 35 minutes to come out. Our server just avoided us like a plague until he brought our dinners which he said sorry after WE ASKED what took so long he explained it usually only takes 8 minutes however they forgot your order. Then my friends pasta was suppose to be pesto rose sauce there was one scoop of pesto under one piece of ravioli. My meal was good and the other servers looked quite attentive to their tables however ours again was terrible, and then he didn't even offer to take anything off the bill for the long wait.
- Undiscovered deliciousnessBubbaDined on 8/22/2014Despite the small street front presence, the restaurant is surprisingly large, well-decorated, and most importantly, adept at serving up great flavours in correct proportions.

By Jenn Pelly on December 2, 2011 at 1:40 p.m. EST
The Chemical Brothers' dazzling live spectacle is coming to the big screen. Directed by the band's longtime visual collaborator Adam Smith, the film Don't Think captures the Chems' performance at Japan's Fujirock Festival in July 2011. (It takes its title from the Chemical Brothers' 2010 song of the same name.) It opens February 3 in the UK, and elsewhere on February 1, with advance screenings taking place on January 26.

The movie arrives April 8, via Focus Features. And on March 15, Back Lot Music will release the Chems' score.

Watch: New Chemical Brothers Video
By Larry Fitzmaurice on July 28, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. EDT
If you've spent some time with the Chemical Brothers' latest album, the go-ahead-and-call-it-a-comeback Further, you know that it's filled with endlessly heady jawns perfect for iTunes visualizers everywhere. Well, this totally techy video for Further cut "Another World" renders that program pretty much obsolete.
Put together by directors Adam Smith and Marcus Lyall and the design team Flat Nose George, the clip features digitized green blobs that form sound waves, a person's face singing along with the song's vocals, and, uh, bigger green blobs. Kind of like that video for Radiohead's "House of Cards", only with a lot less Thom Yorke and a lot more green blobs. Just watch, below:
Listen: Lindstrøm and Prins Thomas Remix Chemical Brothers' "Swoon"
By Tom Breihan on July 8, 2010 at 3:15 p.m. EDT
As the Smalltown Supersound Twitter points out, Scandinavian space disco masters Lindstrøm and Prins Thomas have remixed the everliving hell out of "Swoon", a hazy track from the Chemical Brothers' very good new album Further. In these guys' hands, "Swoon" becomes an old school stretched-out disco odyssey, complete with bass slaps and organ squelches. Click on over to the Hype Machine to hear it.

Parent company Greenfield Farms Food Inc. announced that it has completed financing arrangements for the first phase of its franchising program for its Carmela's Pizzeria concept. The financing is scheduled to close Feb. 15 and is being provided by a Minneapolis-based private equity fund, according to a news release.
The initial phase of the program is development of the Franchise Disclosure Document, a legal document presented to prospective franchise buyers in the presale process. Additionally, the company is in the candidate review and screening process for selection of a national franchising director. The candidate review and screening process has been narrowed down, and the company expects to have an announcement in the short term. The company also is developing the franchising operating system, collateral marketing materials and supporting legal documentation.
There currently are four Carmela's Pizzeria units in operation, and there are plans to add additional company-owned operating units during this year's term and into the next. Plans are also underway to develop a prototype Carmela's Pizzeria unit in the southern U.S., with a focus on Florida.
"We are more than excited about our national franchising program, as this is the area where more rapid company growth will be evidenced through the addition of nationwide franchised units," CEO Rob Heineman said in the release. "Carmela's Pizzeria restaurants in every state of the country — this is a vision we are committed to and have every intention to implement."

50th and Lex./Selling NYC to Wife
- s
- Sweet One Feb 6, 2001 06:13 AM
I'll be taking my wife on a business trip to NYC the end of this week and we will be staying near Lex and 50th. We are just graduating from grad school and so are on a budget, but if I can show her some good food maybe she will agree to let us move to NYC. Are there any really good (any type) reasonably priced restraunts in this very commercial section of Manhattan? If you were trying to convince someone that NYC was wonderful where would you take them?
Walk her into Grand Central - if she's not at least majorly impressed your destined to live in Kansas!
Also, hike across 9th ave to 50th for Grand Sichuan Int'l.
I'd take them to New Jersey ;-)
Seriously, though, New York City is one of the great cities of our time and probably of any time. From all the ethnic neighborhoods around the boroughs to all the great restaurants, from the cultural institutions (museums, art galleries, music halls, etc.) to the diverse architecture, from the amenities like Central Park, Prospect Park, the libraries to the bustling streets, New York City can't possibly be sampled in one visit.
My suggestion is to walk, walk, walk. Take the subway to Montague Street in Brooklyn, walk over to the Promenade, check the breathtaking view of lower Manhattan. Then walk back into Manhattan across the Brooklyn Bridge, find your way to Chinatown, walk up the Bowery until it turns into Third Avenue and continue walking until you get tired. That'll take the better part of a day and won't cost you anything more than the subway rides and what you choose to eat and drink along the way.
For reasonably priced eats, try Chinatown (and see the Manhattan Board for LOTS of opinions on C-Town restaurants), have a burger and a beer in an Irish pub, try some Indian in the East Village, have one pastrami sandwich at the 2nd Ave Deli in the East Village and ask for two extra slices of bread - you'll have enough pastrami for two good-sized sandwiches. Try some pizza.
For finer dining, I would suggest La Mangeoire on 2nd Avenue near 53rd. Very nice ambience, good food, reasonable prices (by NYC standards). Another place we like is Chianti, on 2nd Avenue and 55th. You can hold the prices down in both these places by skipping the wine, or limiting your wine consumption to a glass of the house wine.
Anyway, welcome to our fair city. I surely hope you enjoy your stay.
re: George Lynch
Hi George, your suggestions are nice and it's great to know of others who enjoy New York. Just wanted to point out that two weeks ago I wanted to show the Promenade to a visiting European and found it was all boarded up. A big official New York City sign at one of the main entrances stated it was being renovated until, I think, the Spring. Let's hope it reopens on schedule.
re: George Lynch
I couldn't see if the entire promenade was closed off but it looked like that from my bird's eye view. Just the teeny end part where I stood was open and that's not worth making a special trek there now--though Brooklyn Heights is beautiful anyway.
re: George Lynch
One address correction - Mitchell Place is 49th Street & 1st Avenue. 49th & Third is Smith & Wollensky Steak House.
Otherwise, the best way to sell someone on NYC is to walk & let them choose a place to try.
Have fun, it's a great city.
Walk down Lex to 27th St. and take her to Kalustyans. Walk around, inhale deeply and admire the wonderful mix of merchandise. Then advance to the deli counter and order a mujadarah in a pita, or felafel with baba ganoush, either of which constitutes one of the truly great yet cheap lunches in New York.
Go to the TKTS booth at 47 St. and 7th Ave. and get half price theater tickets. Eat dinner at Topaz Thai at 127 West 56 Street between 6th and 7th Ave. During the day visit the Cloisters which is the medieval branch of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.The Cloisters is beautiful and serene,it gives you the feeling of being at another place and time.For inexpensive good food go to Chinatown.A bistro that I like in the West Village,Chez Michallet has a early dinner Prix Fixe,for about $28.
Welcome to New York! I second the suggestions that you go to Little India on Lexington between 26th and 29th Sts., and to 9th Av. in the lower 50s and 40s. Those are at least somewhat walkable. Chinatown and the East Village are probably not walkable, but easily reachable by bus or subway. Those are probably the neighborhoods in Manhattan south of 96th St. that have the best values in food, but there are also good restaurants north of you on the Upper East Side in the 70s-90s that won't kill your wallet (sorry, I can't name names there).
Specific suggestions of good, reasonably priced restaurants? On 9th Av.: Ariana Afghan Kebab House, but get the salad without dressing and use the hot sauces on the table in lieu of the mayonnaise they would put on; the dough (yogurt drink) may or may not be to your liking (I like it). This restaurant is good and a good value, though I wouldn't call it great. I haven't been to the Hell's Kitchen branch of Grand Sichuan yet.
I'm not current on Indian restaurants in Little India, though Madras Mahal has been highly recommended on the Manhattan boards lately. But further east and south, on 2nd Av. between 20th and 21st St., there is an excellent Turkish restaurant called Gyroland, which I recommend, and it is cheap.
In the East Village, I have had generally good luck with Madras Cafe (2nd Av. between 4th and 5th) Siam Lemon Leaf (2nd Av. between 11th and 12th) and Dok Suni's (1st just north of 7th. I like the squid dishes there best. It's not the most authentic Korean, though; for that, go to Little Korea on W. 32nd St., but those restaurants can be a bit pricey). I also like Katz's Deli, Houston and Ludlow, though it's not exceptionally cheap by any means (very big pastrami sandwiches for around $9).
In/near Chinatown: I really like Congee Village, Allen St. just south of Delancey (Congee House, its sister restaurant, is on 2nd Av. between 96th and 95th). Soothing congee, and other dishes are spectacular. Not dirt cheap, but not expensive (dishes range from about $5-16 or so). I also like the much-debated New York Noodletown, Bowery and Bayard. For Malaysian food, Baba (Bayard near Elizabeth) and Nyonya (Grand between Mott and Mulberry) can be great. For Vietnamese pho, I like the restaurant on Grand St. between Christie and Bowery. If you want to go for dim sum, go for the full treatment at Jing Fong, an eating hall the size of a football field on the 2nd floor of a building on Elizabeth St. between Canal and Bayard (get your number downstairs first). Get the egg cakes from Mrs. Han's stall on Mott St. and Mosco. And get bubble tea, e.g. at St's Alp on Mott(I haven't tried the one a few doors south yet). There's another branch of St's Alp on 3rd Av. between 9th and 10th, which serves the same stuff.
You must wander around the West Village, which is very pleasant with all its winding streets, but I don't eat there much. Just look for a pleasant cafe with an interesting and reasonably-priced menu. Lots of live music there, too.
Good luck and bon appetit! And do check the Manhattan boards.
If you have any possibility of a little splurge, I really liked my dinner at I Coppi a couple of months ago (~$40/person, 9th St. near Av. A), and my birthday dinner last February at Savoy (~$40-45/person, Prince and Crosby - get the venison if they're serving it), which has also gotten raves on the Manhattan board within the last couple of months (do a search on the name of the restaurant using the search feature). Consider having lunch at these restaurants if dinner is too expensive. I know that I Coppi serves lunch, but I don't know for sure whether Savoy does.
Take her to Essa Bagel on 3rd between 50th - 51st, and to Wine & Roses Desserts cafe on 55th between 1st & 2nd, and if she's into kitchen paraphernalia, Bridge Kitchenware on 52nd between 2nd & 3rd. Also walk around Sutton Place! And then take her for a drink at the top of the Beekman Tower Hotel, on "Mitchell Place" (don't even ask) which is 49th & 3rd on a dark and starry night.
One of the best things about NY are all the unique places that can't be found in any old mall. This is getting harder and harder to find as all those mall-type places have descended upon NY.
But with respect to where you're staying I might take her to Lyn's Cafe at 12 W. 55th betw. 5th and 6th for a muffin and coffee (quaint hole-in-the-wall caterer/cafe) then stroll up 5th Ave., passed Tiffany's, Bergdorf's etc. At 59th st. you'll be at the Plaza Hotel with horses and carriages lined up, FAO Schwarz, on one side, Central park on another. Wander into Central Park and take her ice skating at Wollmans rink, outside in the park with the trees and a view of Central Park South--if this doesn't melt her heart for the city I don't know what will! Afterwards catch a film at the Paris Theatre, kitty-corner to the Plaza. Stroll back down Madison for a change of pace and buy her a chocolate from one of the many chocolatiers in that area (Godiva, Lindt, Perugina). I'm swooning already :-)
Good luck!

A mattress can be one of the toughest purchases to make. So many choices. So many prices. And there always seems to be a blowout sale going on somewhere.
Consumer Reports put two dozen mattresses through rigorous tests to help you find the right one.
Consumer Reports' lab is stacked high with mattresses. Chris Regan can tell you just how they measure up.
He put 24 queen-size mattresses through tough tests.
Some have innersprings.
Others are made of foam.
Chris Reagan of Consumer Reports says, "Ultimately it's a matter of personal preference. So whether it's foam or innerspring, make sure you're comfortable."
An important key is how well the mattress supports you. This test records the natural curves in the back.
And then checks if the mattress adequately supports those curves when you sleep on your back.
And this test checks for support when you sleep on your side. Your spine should be in a straight line.
Reagan says, "Most people sleep either on their side or on their back. We want to make sure that mattress is going to support your body in the position in which you sleep."
Other tests check how firm the mattress is …
… and whether it is overly bouncy.
In the end, Consumer Reports
top-rated this foam mattress from Sleep Number. It's the i8 Dual Air in the Innovation Series. But it's expensive — three-thousand dollars.
This 650-dollar mattress-in-a-box from Costco is almost as good. It's the Novaform Serafina Gel Memory Foam.
And if you prefer an innerspring mattress, Consumer Reports
top-rated this one in Serta's iSeries sold at Sears. It's the Serta Perfect Day iSeries Applause for
one-thousand dollars.
Whichever mattress you're considering, it's a good idea to try it out before you buy.
It's also important to check the return policy before you buy a mattress. Some retailers give you several weeks to return or exchange a mattress or box spring you don't like. But the rules vary, and a return usually costs you something. For example, at Sears you'll have to pay return shipping plus a 15 percent restocking fee.

We have been supplying wooden climbing frames for many years. We specialising in climbing frames for children, and domestic garden use. Our products enable families to have play equipment in their gardens, so their children can play in safety and with no need to travel.
Originally founded in Suffolk, England, we now distribute our fantastic climbing frames throughout the world via local retailers and distributors, including representatives in locations as far afield as North America, Russia and Australia, in addition to our resellers and retailers established within Europe. If you're looking to invest in play equipment for your children then feel free to browse our range, or view our regions page to find a retailer near you.
Wooden Climbing Frames
A wooden climbing frame is fun for your children, plus it's natural so looks great in your garden. Our wood is fantastic too, called cunninghamia lanceolata, it's a close relative to the cedar family of trees. This gives it some amazing qualities, making it perfect for use in children's outdoor play equipment. These benefits include:
- Durable – Resistant to Insects, Rot & Decay
- Safe – Light & Strong
- Soft – Minimal Cracks & Splinters
Play Equipment
Many local playgrounds may have children playing there during the day, but teenagers take over at night and often trash the play equipment and leave litter etc when they go. This can be a danger to smaller children, especially toddlers who will explore and pick anything up.
Sadly council funding seems to get more and more restricted, and places like parks and playgrounds seem to suffer the most. Badly maintained play equipment, swings and slides are a danager to children. This is why many families are opting to include a playset in their own garden at home.
A home playground at home is fun, safe and convenient [Read More]
Climbing Frame Safety
We believe in not only offering our customers fun and exciting playsets to keep your children excited day-after-day, but also to offer safe and durable products to ensure you are also satisfied with the excellent value our products offer. All of our wooden climbing frames are designed and manufactured to conform to EN-71 and ASTM testing standards, and we ensure our products are sustainably sourced to ensure our environment is sustained for future generations.
Home-Build Climbing Frames
Our playsets lead the industry, not only with regard to our stringent safety and testing standards, but also due to the quality of wood, and our reputation for designing and manufacturing climbing frames that are simple to build. Our playsets all come pre-boxed, making delivery easier and faster. This saves you time because your play equipment will normally be delivered within 5-15 days, and when it arrives the wood inside the cardboard packaging will be protected and in good condition, meaning less chance of damaged/missing parts. Our play equipment also comes ready to build with pre-cut, pre-drilled and pre-stained wood, all necessary hardware (nuts, blots & screws) and a great range of accessories, in addition to providing your children many years of fun play and exercise with the friends and siblings.Read more about Selwood Climbing Frames

Aebleskiver or Ebleskiver recipe needed...
- Moimoi Dec 14, 2008 08:40 AM
First, is it Aebleskiver or Ebleskiver?
I just bought my first cast-iron abelskiver pan at Tap Phong and tried it out.
I'm excited about the concept, but one site suggested using pancake mix. I made a really nice, homemade apple sauce and put a small dallop or dulce de leche in the middle, but they sucked. I'm sure it's because of the pancake mix.
Does anyone have any tried and true recipes for Ebleskiver?
p.s. also looking for a good recipe for blini if anyone has one of those as well.
re: MacGuffin
Amazing timing. Just unpacked them a couple of days ago. I'm going to keep repeating this til it's engrained. Thanks MG.
re: c oliver
My pleasure! I also had to know and lucked out. :)
re: likescrab
I know there are lots of recipes out there, but I'm looking for one that someone has tried. Here is a link - in response to your question if it hasn't already been answered. http://www.aldenteblog.com/2008/06/pr... I'm not sure if I like the article, or just the photo.
re: Moimoi
Thanks for the pronunciation :) My MIL pronounced them 'able-skeever' and I pretty much knew THAT wasn't right.
Here is a recipe for Aebleskiver. Pancake batter just doesn't seem to work right. You can also buy a mix at www.solvangrestaurant.com that is great. They also have an instructional video on YouTube. Our family has enjoyed these for years and years.
Traditional Aebleskiver Recipe:
2 cups buttermilk 2 cups flour
2 eggs 2 t baking powder
1/2 t salt 1/2 t soda
2 T sugar 4 T melted butter
Separate the eggs. Mix egg yolks and all the other ingredients together at one time and beat until smooth.
Beat the whites stiff and fold in last.
Allow batter to set for 20 minutes to let baking powder work.
re: momo2bj
Have you tried this recipe?
It might be just as easy for you to do a Google search for the variations in spelling for Aebelskiver, Ableskiver, Aveleskiver, Ebleskiver, etc. to see all the recipes that are out there; there's a million of 'em. You'll find them with and without yeast. To get started with your new pan, try using a simple pancake mix and reduce the liquid by about two tablespoons.
Usually the box that the Aebleskiver is when you purchase it has a fairly good recipe to give you an idea on basic ingredients. You'll need something to turn them with - I use an aluminum knitting needle and a "three turn" method.
Here's a good video:
The W-S website has a bunch of recipes for them (since they sell the pan). I've made the cinnamon roll-filled ones and they are yummy.
When you settle on a recipe (Our traditional one uses buttermilk prettty much like the one provided by momo2bj), it's a trick to turn the aebleskiver in the pan. We tried spatulas, forks, etc., and all were difficult. What turned out, for us, to be the best was a simple chopstick; worked like a charm.
Here's our favorite recipe, which we've been making for many years:
2 eggs
2 cups buttermilk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. vanilla
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup melted unsalted butter
1 T melted or softened butter (for pan)
Separate the eggs and beat whites until stiff but not dry, and set aside. In another bowl, combine egg yolks, buttermilk, vanilla, flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, sugar, and butter. Beat until smooth, and then fold in the egg whites.
Heat an aebleskiver pan over medium heat and brush each depression with melted butter. Pour about 2 tablespoons of the batter into each cup, and, when bubbly around the edges, turn quickly with a long wooden skewer, chopstick, or toothpick, trying not to puncture the balls. Continue cooking, turning the ball to keep it from burning.
You can also add half the batter to the pan, add a teaspoon of jam or fruit, then cover with remaining batter. Great with maple syrup. Enjoy!
This is exactly what I've been looking for. My pan is made of cast iron and I've seasoned it and is ready for cooking. Several days ago I dropped at Williams Sonoma store and they have a book of recipes for Aebleskiver. I just want to use it once in a while and need 2 or 3 different recipes. I'll try the ones here.
re: serbianbelle
I'm thinking of getting a pan as well (this place seems to have every pan made: http://www.aebleskiver.com/index.html and there's also a nice video showing how to bake them) but discovered that aebleskiver in Denmark aren't filled so if you want to be traditional, don't bother with the book.
re: serbianbelle
The ones I just unpacked of MIL's aren't cast iron. I tested them with a magnet. They're a silver tone so I'm thinking some knda of heavy duty aluminum. So I'm wondering if I CAN season them and, if so, how.. Any thoughts?
re: c oliver
Interesting that you should ask. I just bought an aluminum omelette pan (awaiting delivery) that's going to require seasoning and the instructions are on their Web page: http://www.potshopofboston.com/Omelet... (scroll down a bit, left side); I bought some rice bran oil to use specifically because of its high smoke point. I'll bet you could use the same procedure on your pan.
re: MacGuffin
That looks like just the thing. I've saved it and I thank you. Rice bran oil? Natural foods grocery or WF perhaps?
re: c oliver
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find it at Whole Foods or at a health food store. I wanted an American brand but wasn't able to find any in a brick-and-mortar store here in NYC but I did find a brand from Thailand (Companion) that's made from jasmine rice and thought that sounded kinda cool. Where are you? There are two American brands, Tophé and California Rice Bran Oil, that are very reasonable and if you live near a vendor, it would be worth your while to pick up some.
Instructions for another pan that I need to season call for 1 cm of oil so don't buy anything too expensive. Roland has some from Italy but it was quite expensive for a little tin.
I bought my pan in Thornhill at the Finish Shop on Yonge and John Street. It's made of cast iron but I think it was overpriced. Looking at Lodge cast iron in U.S. you can get it for less and even with postage the cost would be lower. There are probably stores around Toronto selling cast iron pots and pans and one can order an Aebleskiver pan.
re: serbianbelle
This works well. http://www.williams-sonoma.com/produc...
re: DAVESGIRL
I think it got some good reviews, too, didn't it?
That vendor I mentioned carries his own mix which is probably pretty good. I usually like to make things from scratch but the problem is getting a good recipe--a mix kinda eliminates that problem.
re: MacGuffin
Exactly! I love to make things from scratch but....sometimes a mix works just as well.
Not sure how good they are but thanks to Hank's web search service, here are 4 recipes. I don't think they have been mentioned yet.
I got an ebleskiver pan for Christmas and this is the recipe I used:
I used the same batter to fill with either blueberries, mulberry jam or Nutella.
Today was the day I finally made Aebleskiver and it appears it's not so easy to make those little round balls as they appear in illustrations. One of seven in the pan came out nice and round. There are7 depressions in the pan. I think it may need more fat then what I initially put in. I still have a lot of batter left to practice. The recipe is from one posted here.
re: serbianbelle
I think I've read chopsticks are sometimes used. Congrats.
