- Always Awesome ServiceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/23/2014Our family dined here for lunch and, as always, the service was awesome. The food is fresh and creative. This is one of our favorites!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/19/2014Must be kid-friendly because lunch was a mix of business people and the stroller pack. Room was large enough for the staff to seat everyone so that noise and bustle of children did not interrupt business conversations. Kudos to them for making the place welcoming to all.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, fantastic serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 11/16/2014This has become our new go-to place in the area. Great food and incredibly friendly and attentive service. They change the menu frequently which keeps things interesting. A bit noisy during busy times -- not a complaint, just a heads up.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Service attentive and nice.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 10/25/2014We went for drinks and Appetizers, it was great .. New sushi dishes , chicken wings, calamari always good !!! Our waitress Jordan was pleasant and helpful ..Special Features:
- pinkgolferVIPDined on 10/24/2014We have been here several times. We have never had a bad meal. We love the open, clean feeling of the restaurant. The servers are just wonderful. They are always so pleasant and helpful and extremely knowledgeable about the whole menu and wine list. We have come here with a large group and sometimes it's just two of us. It never disappoints. You can always order something healthy and delicious. The menu is not boring and the specials are always fabulous. They have the best spicy tuna sushi around. Our server also helped me pick a wonderful white wine to go with it. The overall experience has always been wonderful. It's so awesome to have such a great restaurant right in our own backyard.Special Features:
- On timeOntimeDined on 10/24/2014I was so happy when we found the restaurant very busy that our table was waiting for us. I really thought we would have a very long wait for a table. Pleasure eating here. Noise level is very high!! Hard to talk but food was so worth it..Special Features:
- An enjoyable eveningchefdobieDined on 10/19/2014it was my Wife's birthday and I noted on the reservation through open table. I was pleasantly surprised our waiter was aware of this when I asked which was great. I was impressed with the quality of food and portion sizes. The menu had a lot of variety. I had the buffalo popcorn shrimp, wife had salmon tartar and spicy tuna roll, all were delicious. She had the baked schrod which was very nice and a good portion. Hand cut fries were great too. The only food issue was the Seafood casserole was too dry. Not sure it needs cheese which absorbed all the moisture, flavor was great though. Overall I was very impressed and had a very nice dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Noise levelOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/18/2014The noise level is so loud that we couldn't hear one another speak. If they don't do something with the acoustics in this restaurant I'll never go back there.
- nice restaurant staple for usMuddyWatersVIPDined on 10/18/2014We go every week and it never disappoints. Food's already very good and service is also good. Decent wine and cocktail list.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- yelling requiredDinnergals9Dined on 10/17/2014First time there, requested a quiet table (lol) arrived at 7:30pm with reservation- noise volume was unbearable -had to talk extremely loud to be heard across the table. More of a sports bar venue-not for intimate dining. food was very good and waitress very attentive. she knew it was not the experience we wanted and brought free dessert. I should have called the restaurant before going about the scene.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always a great experienceFoodlover2VIPDined on 10/12/2014We went to celebrate my daughters birthday & the food and service were great. They brought out a desert with a candle and sang Happy Birthday which was very much appreciated!Special Features:
- PapaZDined on 10/10/2014I would not describe the noise level as energetic - just plain too loud/noisey. My ears actually felt like I just left a concert. numb ringing...Special Features:
- Oysters !!TerryDined on 10/4/2014great food, great service and amazing oysters on the half shell !Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 10/4/2014Food is always delicious. Clam chowder is the best! Service very good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great timeFriendsDined on 10/3/2014The service was great. Our Waiter knew the menu well and made great suggestions. The food was terrific and we liked the fall theme for some of the items. The only negative is it is very noisy.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- UnevenMaryfVIPDined on 10/3/2014You can count on Legal for doing things well, but prices are higher than elsewhere. The po boy sandwich featured as part of Oyster Fest contained only 3 fried oysters - not good value, and not a good proportion of oysters to bread. Go to New Orleans if you want a po boy. That said, the Faroe Island salmon was perfectly cooked and delicious, as always. The faro salad was bland. The roasted cauliflower was delicious.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/26/2014loved it and would go again and recommend it to friendsSpecial Features:
- Cold nightMaryVIPDined on 9/26/2014We were initially seated outside with a promise if a heated patio. Unfortunately the heater was out and it was cold. We moved inside to a small table near a large group. It was very noisy. Our waitress appeared new and had trouble getting to us. Service was slow. The food was very good and the menu has typical Legal choices with some additions of pizza and a decent sushi menu. An ok night but not great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great foodOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/26/2014Love this restaurant, food always fresh. I had the garden salad with crabmeat. It was awesome! There just seems to be a problem with making reservations through open table. This is the 2nd time I made a reservation and the Restaurant can't find the reservation even though I have a confirmation.Special Features:
- Excellent seafood, great serviceLarryVIPDined on 9/25/2014This is our 4th visit to a Legal C and we have always had great food and outstanding service. Took my boss from Alabama and a couple from work and all enjoyed the meal.Special Features:
- Wanted to give 4 stars but..PebblesDined on 9/21/2014No complaints with service. My wife has an allergy and their attention to it was great. The space was too cold. Nothing takes away from the dining experience more than having it uncomfortable. Seating at the windows are directly below the AC. We would have moved but our guest claimed they were comfortable so I got my wife a jacket out of the car. My Sushi was OK but did lack some flavor. This was the first time I had ordered it and would likely not do it next time. Our guest had the crab cake (I thought it was supposed to be cakes so more than one). I do not think she was totally thrilled with it. This location just does not meet with my expectations of a Legal's.
- FoodDCimmDined on 9/20/2014The food is excellent, it has never disappointed us. The kids love it too, and that a battle in it self!Special Features:
- Great staff great foodLisaDined on 9/19/2014Our server Samantha went above and beyond for us just because. Her great service made the experience all the more better. Food was terrific as usual.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- night out with a friendseafoodieDined on 9/9/2014Great food, great service! Way, way too loud for a dining room. We were yelling to hear one another, which is what we would expect at a bar. Otherwise, I will revisit soon........just will sit @ the bar next timeSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pleasantly surprisednorthshoredinerVIPDined on 9/7/2014Four of us had a fabulous dinner at Legal C Bar. My expectations were not high after my last few experience at a Legal Seafoods. However, this was different. Everything was great. My husband had the swordfish and it was thick and tender. I had sushi and a salad -- also delicious. My daughter and her boyfriend were also happy with their meals. The fried pickles to start were one of the best we've tried. As a matter of fact, we had to place another order since they were so good. Drinks were good as was the service. It was a nice touch having the manager stop by after the meal. I don't know why more places don't do that. We'll definitely be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best restaurant in the areaOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 9/6/2014Great food, great drinks, great looking restaurant and the only Legals you can get sushi!Special Features:
- First time visitLucie13Dined on 9/6/2014First time at Legal C Bar and we would definitely go back! Great dinner, service was excellent and all staff very friendly. Manager comped our apps because we booked said we were first time customers on our Open Table booking. It is noisy so if you are looking for a quiet place I would not recommend it on a Saturday nightSpecial Features:
- Couldn't even hear myself chewingFoodisLoveDined on 9/5/2014We decided to go to the Legal C Bar in Lynnfield this past Friday. We were thankful we made reservations because it was packed. We were able to sit quickly. The food was good, and my salmon was cooked perfectly. Really the primary problem with this restaurant is the noise level. I'm fine with loud bars, but if you're going out and paying a fair amount of money for your meal you would like to at least be able to talk with the person/people you are with. It really did not make for an enjoyable experience.Special Features:
- Very good dining experienceSherryVIPDined on 9/4/2014at Legal C Bar. Prompt seating upon arrival. Sat outside where it was very quiet. Service was very efficient.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice Addition to the North Shoreno27gloDined on 9/1/2014My husband and I have been to Legal C many times. In addition, we've given gift cards to our friends. We enjoy everything about the restaurant. It is casual and comfortable and the food is always excellent. The more formal Legal Seafood restaurant is good but the Legal C Bar seems to fit our lifestyle. The entire outdoor mall has been a wonderful addition to the Lynnfield/Saugus area. We plan to continue our trips to Legal C and recommend it highly to our friends.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great, as are all Legal restaurantsMuddyWatersVIPDined on 8/31/2014We love this place and go every week. All the Legal restaurants do a great job (fresh food, reasonable price, good service) and Legal C is no different. I recommend them all if you want great seafood, fresh salads, and good service, all at a pretty decent price point.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The BestJazzyDined on 8/30/2014The food was delicious, the ambiance was upscale, relaxing and pleasant, the people were friendly and professionally, the price of the meals and drinks was about 20-30% less than what we would have expected to pay elsewhere. Plenty of parking too and a broad menu.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 8/27/2014Love the food there. I requested an outside table for a party of six so it would be quiet and we could talk. When we arrived I was told that they do not honor request for outside seating through reservations and had to sit inside where it was extremely loud and difficult to have a conversation with a party of sixSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great LunchmeditatefoodDined on 8/24/2014We had a great lunch. The service was attentive and fun ! We really liked the crabmeat salad and the salmon reuben! Thanks!Special Features:

Skirt Steak - Against the grain versus pieces
- jfood Jun 24, 2007 05:47 AM
Jfood loves skirt steak and the jfoods love this "special" treat.
Every thread on the subject has many of you suggesting to slice across the grain. Now jfood understands the concept as he is the knife-monger for all carvings in jfood-land but jfood has found that the family and the steak itself seems to do better when jfood offers up chunks of skirt (usiallu in 4-6" sections) versus slices, but that's a personal preference thing.
Question jfood has how people sliceg the skirt against the grain. The skirt istelf has the "grain" in the following fashion,
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII (hey it's the best jfood could do with a qwerty keyboard)
so do you-all (see other threads about servers calling custos that) slice perpendicular (and jfood has somewhat of a brain cramp on that) or do you-all slice at a 45 or 60 degree angle?
re: MMRuth
What MMRuth said
Skirt steak is one of my favorites, and I never slice it perpendicular. (always slice it on the short side, not the long slide). I find it is more tender if you cook the entire piece, instead of curring it up into smaller pieces before cooking. That being said, if I have to cook it inside on a grill pan, I do cut it into whichever pieces fit on the grill pan.
I slice it all up into very thin slices, while it is still warm.
I've eaten skirt steak in restaurants where it was plated after being cut into small squares.
If I'm serving it as steak I slice in in 4-6 in pieces as you do. The diner can slice it either way as they choose. For sandwiches, fajitas, tacos, salads and so forth which are typically eaten without a knife I do slice it cross fiber to make it easier to bite.
We tend to eat skirt steak as only fajita meat, so on nachos, tacos or in a wrap or salad. I don't serve mine in strips or chunks, but instead I dice it in about a 1/2 to 1/4" dice. That's how it is served in our favorite "street food" settings.
Hi Y'all
As mschow said skirt steak is most tender if it is cooked whole. Try Marinating it in lime juice. Isn't that what grills are for - cooking nice big pieces of meat!
Get your self a nice long slicing knife - at least 12 inches. Keep it very sharp. Always slice the skirt steak across the grain, about a 45 degree angle as thin as you can - to get nice slices with short grain.
BTW Scrapironchef - do you really eat sandwiches, fajitas and tacos with a knife? You silly chef you!
re: cheftori
I said "typically eaten without a knife" but I have seen the idiotically fastidious eating them with knife and fork.
I don't understand what slicing "perpendicular" means.
If the steak is 12 inches long and 3 inches wide "|||||||||||" laid out in front of you with the 12 inches east to west as jfood describes above, are you supposed to slice it east to west, north to south, or some other compass angle?
re: bklyngirly
AGAINST the grain, which would be east to west

Waiting for Obama Administration to deliver on new worker safety regulations, probably shouldn't hold my breath
Spring 2013 looked like it would be a banner season for progress by the Obama Administration on new worker safety regulations; not so much anymore.
In many cities, traffic control officers will "boot" are vehicle if it's racked up too many unpaid parking tickets. It's time for an equivalent sanction for employers who violate labor laws and refuse to pay the penalties.
Greg Byers, 43, worked underground at Arch Coal/ICG's Pocahontas Coal Mine in Beckley, WV. He suffered a serious injury in July 2012 that led to his death. An investigation report explains how common sense–not rocket science–could have prevented his work-related death.
HuffPo's Dave Jamieson writes this week about a Kentucky worker who raised concerns about safety problems at Armstrong Coal, was fired for doing so and complained about it to the Labor Department, and is now being sued by his former employer for making his claim.
The Labor Department's MSHA issued a new regulation this week targeting employers that have an egregious pattern of violating mine safety and health standards.
With five days left in calendar year 2012, the Obama Administration released its current regulatory plan and agenda, including new rules addressing health and safety hazards in workplaces. Neither OSHA nor MSHA have a good track record predicting when such rules will actually be completed.
Seven new worker safety regulations–both proposed and final rules—are stuck in the Obama White House. One proposed rule has been "under review" for 645 days.
Now that the Presidential election is over, it's time for the Labor Department to kick into high gear expand workers' rights and ensuring workers' lives and health are protected. Here's my wish list of tasks for the Labor Department to accomplish in the next 6 months:
In our new report "The Year in U.S. Occupational Health & Safety," we devote one section to key activities by the Obama Administration and the U.S. Congress.

Solid for the price
By Ride the Moon
from New York, NY
Generally a good Burton Jacket with all the essentials. Have not tested it out on the mountain yet, but the jacket is warm. Seems to be waterproof, but if there's heavy deluge, then it may not hold out completely. Stylish with its minimalist look, heather grey was a good color for me.
Great jacket

Today's Poison Cosplay Of The Day comes from Spanish Cosplayer Nadya Sonika in her interpretation of Final Fight and Street Fighter character Poison.
The character originated from the Final Fight video game series, created by Akira Yasuda for Capcom and is one of the few characters from the series to move on to a minor role in the main Street Fighter series. Her origin denotes that: She is the friend and manager of Hugo and before her career as a manager kicked off, she was well known as one of the more recognizable members of the group called Mad Gear. Poison's name may also be derived from a glam-metal band, also named Poison, that was popular in the late 1980′s, and were known for their effeminite dress sense and use of make up – Street Fighter Wiki
Realistically though, all you need to know is that Poison is one of the most smoking hot characters in games currently, and Nadya does a bang up job bringing that to life in these shots below.

|Texans Players Finding New Homes
Connor Barwin, USAT Sports)
The Houston Texans made it to the playoffs in 2012 with a solid roster. They are going to have some rebuilding in 2013 if they want to return. The team has already lost some top talent at the start of free agency.
Houston (AP) — The Houston Texans released receiver Kevin Walter, then lost tight end James Casey as free agency opened Tuesday.
The 31-year-old Walter signed with the Texans in March 2006 after playing his first three NFL seasons in Cincinnati. He caught 326 passes for 4,093 yards in his seven seasons with the Texans. Walter made 41 catches for 518 yards and two touchdowns and was the Texans' third-leading receiver in 2012.
Walter was due to make $2 million in base salary in 2013 and he never became the deep threat the Texans wanted to complement Andre Johnson. The move leaves the Texans with three much younger receivers on the roster to fill out the depth chart behind Johnson — Keshawn Martin, Lestar Jean and DeVier Posey.
Later Tuesday, Philadelphia signed the versatile Casey, one of the Texans' unrestricted free agents.
Several teams reportedly lined up to court Casey, who had his best statistical season in 2012, setting career highs in receptions (34) and yards receiving (330). A fifth-round pick out of Rice in 2009, Casey began his career at tight end, then moved to fullback in 2011, after Vonta Leach signed with Baltimore.
Safety Glover Quin, outside linebacker Connor Barwin, cornerback Brice McCain, nose tackle Shaun Cody and linebacker Tim Dobbins were among Houston's other unrestricted free agents.
Quin was a fourth-round pick in 2009 and played cornerback for two seasons before moving to safety in 2011. He made 107 tackles, including his first career sack, and intercepted two passes in 2012. He's started 60 consecutive games and intercepted five passes for the Texans.
Barwin's numbers dipped after he led the Texans with 11 1/2 sacks in 2011. He had only three sacks, but deflected five passes in 16 starts in 2012. Barwin moved to outside linebacker in 2011 after missing most of the 2010 season with a broken right ankle.
McCain, 26, missed the final four regular-season games and the playoffs with a broken left foot. He had surgery on Dec. 3 and the recovery was expected to take about eight weeks. McCain was a sixth-round pick by Houston in 2009. He broke up 26 passes and had four interceptions in his four seasons.
Cody missed three games last season with back soreness, and he had surgery to fix a herniated disk in February. Cody who played at Southern Cal, was drafted in the second round in 2005 by Detroit and signed with the Texans as a free agent in 2009.
Earl Mitchell proved to be a capable backup to Cody, making 51 tackles, deflecting three passes and forcing a fumble in 2012.
Dobbins signed with the Texans as a free agent in August 2011. He stepped into a starting role in 2012 after Brian Cushing tore his left anterior cruciate ligament against the New York Jets on Oct. 8. Dobbins made 43 tackles and recovered four fumbles in 14 games last season. He was also Houston's special-teams captain.

After Nokia filed suit against Apple about a month ago, Apple decided to sue them right back!

An Apple spokesperson said in a statement, "Other companies must compete with us by inventing their own technologies, not just by stealing ours." While we can't be sure whether that's a fair statement to make concerning Nokia, it might be warranted against Mac clone-maker, Psystar.

Although Moffat admits he was in talks with Sun during the IBM acquisition meetings , he says he didn't have enough information from Sun to beat the street. However, the wiretaps of Chiesi's phone tell a different story. Moffat lost his job and his chances to become CEO of IBM when he was arrested in October.

Last week I got a call saying that my financial aid for my studies have temporarily been suspended (I didn't do too well in a class & due to some new rules in the scholarship program I participate in regarding "academic performances"...I'm not eligible for aid until mid April/May). I ended up using the money I had been saving on my paypal to pay for the rent of my current apartment & some food items (P.S. Thank you to those who donated last time, it was really unexpected).This aid mess also caused yet another issue: I can't pay for my grad school admission fee or my graduation fee & I've got til the end of the month to pay for them (can't ask for help from my parents since they're covering their own medical expenses right now) & the chance of landing a job is still lo

I pray that no student has to experience what I did at Mobile Christian. Over the course of several years I was repeatedly sexually harassed and bullied. The administration knew what was going on but did nothing to prevent or curb the behavior. I cannot even begin to explain what this environment did to my self esteem and my connection with God. I feel I must also add that many of the teachers use the Word of God to belittle students and push their own warped agendas. Once I said that God loves us all equally and the teacher point me out in front of the whole class and exclaimed No, the Bible teaches us that God thinks you are worthless. Another teacher told me that they didn't think dinosaurs existed that they were just a conspiracy of atheist scientists. I truly hope that things have changed since I attended school here. However, I felt that parents should know about my experience before sending their children here.
To the 2/11/14 review....not sure what school you are referring to but they sing in chapel every day at MCS. The website clearly states how the school started with the Church of Christ so what did you expect? And the administration will tell you that if you ask them. No big secret there. We love the environment of this school. We have not experienced any bullying or other common issues in schools. Our daughter has excelled in all her classes and is now a member of the National Elem Honor Society. I can't imagine ever going to another school after being here. We love MCS!!! It is like one big family.
This school is a Church of Christ school. There is no singing in chapel. All of the teachers are Church of Christ. The Bible classes are taught from a Church of Christ perspective. The school administration will not tell you this, for whatever reason.
Was not a good fit for my children. Kids there have been in school together a long time.
My son, transfered from ST Marks, to Mobile Christian, from the third grade, til graduation, I was well pleased with the quaility of his education, I would also like to add, I believe this was the best investment I ever made.
Without a doubt, Mobile Christian offers the best well rounded education in the Mobile area. Being an educator myself and a MCS graduate I know firsthand the value in this honey hole of a school. It fills my heart with gladness seeing my child sing in chapel performances and watching the building lifelong friendships with other children who share common values and beliefs. I feel the preparation on each grade level is above and beyond what is taking place in other sister educational facilities while creating a challenging curriculum with the hope of developing lifelong learners with a desire to achieve.
We have been at MCS for 7 years. I could not imagine sending my two kids to any other school. My son and daughter are on the A Honor Roll every quarter. MCS and the teachers have become family to us. They definately make parents feel welcome at all times.
Our family has been with Mobile Christian for five years now. My son graduated last year, and my daughter is currently in middle school. If either of them has said it once, they have a thousand times over: the teachers here give this school its undeniable heart of gold. Nowhere may there be found a school composed of teachers who have a finer passion for their subject, who are more devoted to their students' learning and success today and years from now, and who have a greater depth of caring for the well-being of each and every last student to have ever passed through their classrooms. To teach, and to teach well and meaningfully and in a way that indelibly touches lives, is surely a blessing of God. The teachers here demonstrate the truth of this every day, and Mobile Christian School is a very, very special place because of it.
My three boys attended Mobile Christian School from K4-12th grade. Our elementary experience was simply fantastic! I felt that my children were in a safe environment and were taught by intelligent, caring teachers. I frequently recommend Mobile Christian to other parents. In high school, our boys played several sports and had many extracurricular activities from which to choose. One even got selected to serve on the Student Government Association. We love MCS!
My two sons have been at MCS for 5 years now and we love it! They have thrived academically, spiritually and socially. I love that the faculty and administration genuinely care about my son's present circumstances as well as their future goals. My oldest son is already receiving college credit and he is only a Sophomore in high school. I highly recommend MCS!
My daughter transferred to this school in the 6th grade, following the recommendation of her public school teachers that we look into private school for the middle school years. She received an excellent education with teachers that offered emotional support in dealing with the social stresses associated with middle and high school years. She graduated from Mobile Christian and was well prepared for college at a large state university. I would highly recommend this school to families looking for scholastic excellence in an environment where the individual's personal needs are considered as important as the academic.
I am a public school teacher, and had my daughter in Gifted classes and advanced classes in public school. I thought I'd never change to a private school. When my daughter entered middle school, the behavior of the students, lack of discipline, and hands-off approach of administration changed my mind. We moved my daughter to MCS in 7th grade, and it is a decision I've never regretted. She was met with a caring and hands-on administration, and supportive teachers. I was not afraid if I had to be a few minutes late picking her up. I knew she was safe. She received mutliple full-tuition scholarships to college, and chose one that included room and board as well. There is no part of her experience that I regret. In fact, it was the best decision we made for her all-around life experience AND her academic support. I'd do it again in a heart beat! Thanks, MCS!!!
In 2006 we made the decision to move our daughter from another private school to MCS. One of the determining factors was that this school went thru the 12th grade, which was important to us. Over the past six years, we have thought of MCS as our extended family. For what they have taught our daughter, both from an academic and a social aspect, MCS can not be beat! We look forward to the next six years!!!!!
The best decision my family ever made was to take our kids out of public school and put them in Mobile Christian School. MCS teachers are professional,caring and push my girls to do their best at all times.
i absolutely do not like this school.... the bullying is horrible and if you are having trouble with something they act like they dont even care! and if youare getting bullied the teachers just say to stop, they dont even discipline.
This is our 1st yr at MCS and we love it. My daughter is excited about what she is learning and loves her teachers. It is a very warm, christian and caring environment. We are very pleased with the academics. I highly recommned MCS.
Moved here from Tennessee and found Mobile Christian to be warm and caring. The Administrators spent several hours with my family answering questions and introducing us to teachers. Student/teacher ratio is best in Mobile area.
This school is one of the best experiences we have had in our entire lives. The teachers, staff and faculty are truly concerned and caring about your child and his academic experience. From music to athletics, this school exceeded our expectations and we will forever be indebted to the staff of MCS. It's like a small town/community of caring people.
I noticed that Andy Nassar, way back in April of 04 said that MCS lacks discipline...please...i went there from K5 - 12, and i know first hand the paddling, detention, Saturday School, Lunch Duty...I mean I am sure there is more, but that is all that I received from there, so lack of discipline is not their problem...As for teachers just there for the money, every teacher I ever had called my parents when I had a 'C' or below in any class I ever took, and were always willing to help pull the grade up, by staying after school if need be.
Our children have been in Christian Schools from 5 weeks to 7th grade. Our two years at Mobile Christian have been the best. It is an advanced curriculum and our children had to be tutored to catch up with the others (after a two year stent in public school). Be prepared for the cookie cutter model though. It happens to the best of us.

Franklin Crate Ceases Operations
Published July 19th, 2012
MICANOPY-One of North Central Florida's oldest and most venerable companies has closed its doors.
Franklin Crate, which has manaufactured produce containers for farmers since 1916, ended operations on Thursday, July 12th, according to company owner Ben Franklin III.
John Thrasher with the Micanopy Historical Society told TV20 that through the years Franklin Crate was the biggest employer in the region. He said the company had a close relationship with the people of Micanopy.
Franklin would not say how many people worked at the company, or why it shut down. But he said his family would keep the facility, and possibly rent it out.

A hammer is a tool meant to deliver an impact to an object. The most common uses are for driving nails, fitting parts, forging metal and breaking up objects. Hammers are often designed for a specific more... ...less
purpose, and vary widely in their shape and structure. The usual features are a handle and a head, with most of the weight in the head. The basic design is hand-operated, but there are also many mechanically operated models for heavier uses, such as steam hammers.The hammer may be the oldest tool for which definite evidence exists. Stone hammers are known which are dated to 2,600,000 BC. The hammer is a basic tool of many professions. By analogy, the name hammer has also been used for devices that are designed to deliver blows, e.g.The essential part of a hammer is the head, a compact solid mass that is able to deliver the blow to the intended target without itself deforming.The opposite side may have a ball, as in the ball-peen hammer and the cow hammer. Some upholstery hammers have a magnetized appendage, to pick up tacks. In the hatchet the hammer head is secondary to the cutting edge of the tool.As the impact between steel hammer heads and the objects being hit can, and does, create sparks, which in some industries can be dangerous and risk igniting any inflammable gases. In these environments, a variety of non-sparking metal tools are used, being principally, aluminium or beryllium copper-headed hammers.In recent years the handles have been made of durable plastic or rubber. The hammer varies at the top; some are larger than others giving a larger surface area to hit different sized nails and such.Popular hand-powered variations include:Ball-peen hammer, or mechanic's hammerCarpenter's hammers (used for nailing), such as the framing hammer and the claw hammerConstruction hammers, including the sledgehammerCross-peen hammer, or Warrington hammerDrilling hammer - a lightweight, short handled sledgehammerGeologist's hammer or rock pickKnife-edged hammer, its properties developed to aid a hammerer the act of slicing whilst bludgeoningLump hammer, or club hammerMallets, including the rubber hammer and dead blow hammerSoft-faced hammerSplitting maulStonemason's hammerUpholstery hammerFor the full range of hammers to suit any budget cheaphammers.co.uk is the place to be.

Generic Credentials?
Hello guys recently I had an issue remoting into a win 7 pro laptop that I couldn't figure out so I ended up reinstalling the OS because I had gotten this laptop from a friend who used it for school but bought a new laptop. Anyway it was acting up so I decided I'd start from scratch because he used for earning his certs he cluttered it up with a lot of labs and other software that was not needed by me. But when I was troubleshooting the remote desktop I would keep getting a warning "The certificate is not from a trusted certifiying authority". And after reinstalling the os on the laptop I am able to remote in, but I still keep getting the untrusted warning. How do I remedy this? Also while looking in the Credential Manager I noticed the Generic Credentials has a account that keeps repopulating despite removing it from the vault. The username always starts with "02avqhbjpfnh" with a blocked out password. When I researched this people were saying this had something to do with Windows Live Mail. Has anyone here seen this? Can anyone verify that this is some windows live mail credential?
|My System Specs
|11 Sep 2011
Windows 8.1 Pro (x64)
The warning is notifying you that the certificate is not from a trusted vendor like Verisign. In this case, a self-signed certificate that does not confirm the identity of the one who possesses it. The Generic Credentials you are seeing is most likely Remote Desktop if you are saving the authentication details of the remote system.

"not the best Martin Cruz Smith novel"
I found the story hard to follow and most of the characters not very interesting. I have read or listen to most of his novels and this one just didn't hold my interest.
"You're Next"
This is one the most disappointing books I've read/listen to. Scott brick could not even save this book. Storyline is not even plausible and and even if you're huge environmentalists you cannot believe the plot. These books need to be marked the same way as Christian novels.I enjoy Christian novels but I like to know that's what I'm buying. If a book is this political about environmental views it needs to be marked that way.

Coming soon ... Envy (an Empty Coffin novel) by Gregg Olsen: Fifteen-year-old twins Hayley and Taylor Ryan of Port Gamble, WA, known as "Empty Coffin" because of a local legend, investigate a former friend's Christmas suicide and, along the way, discover a secret from their own past.
Place your hold now!
It's hard not to notice Terra Cooper. She's tall, blond, and has an enviable body. But with one turn of her cheek, all people notice is her unmistakably "flawed" face. In Justina Chen Headley's North of Beautiful, Terra secretly plans to leave her stifling small town in the Northwest and escape to an East Coast college but she gets pushed off course by her controlling father. When a handsome, quirky Goth boy sees her for who she really is Terra is forced in yet another direction.
The red-stained birthmark on Terra's right cheek isn't the only challenge she has to overcome. She's with her insensitive boyfriend for all the wrong reasons. Her malicious father, a mapmaker with a humiliating secret, is critical to the point of verbal abuse. And her family is falling apart. But Terra is a likable girl, who desperately wants to be accepted for who she is – flaws and all. A cast of well-developed characters also make this a fun and touching story.
When seventeen-year-old Bella leaves Phoenix to live with her father in Forks, Washington, she meets an exquisitely handsome boy at school for whom she feels an overwhelming attraction and who she comes to realize is not wholly human.
Life in a Finnish-American logging community at the turn of the last century in remote Washington state is not easy for a girl with seven brothers, but our only May Amelia has learned that survival requires humor as well as determination.

Former Lt. Governor Carroll moving forward after scandal
Updated On: Apr 26 2013 01:16:09 AM EDT
Suddenly out of office in Tallahassee, Clay County's Jennifer Carroll says she's moving forward in life.
The former Lt. Governor spoke with Kent Justice on Thursday and shared her passion for her new job and her view on what she wants to see in the person who replaces her.
It's been since the middle of March that Florida has gone without a Lt. Governor. Carroll said Gov. Rick Scott asked her to resign, and she did.
Carroll also said lots of people have asked her to work for them, and she decided to say yes. She's excited about the future.
"I am embracing this opportunity to, number one, make some money!" said Carroll. "And number two, make a difference."
Carroll sounded passionate about the role she'll take on with a company called Global Digital Solutions. When the company merges with Airtronic USA, she'll take over as Chief Operating Officer.
The company manufacturers small arms for military, things like rocket propelled grenades and machine guns.
"Also, where the U.S. typically gets these type of munitions, is from China and Russia," said Carroll. "So here's an opportunity to improve and enhance a U.S. grown business, and also bring those jobs to Florida for manufacturing."
Carroll said she's hopeful her replacement as Lt. Governor will be as passionate as she is, about defense jobs, space, and keeping Florida bases off the list, if the federal government returns to a base realignment and closure committee.
Carroll also said she's getting over the disappointment of leaving Tallahassee so abruptly.
"In retrospect, if I had a crystal ball to see how it played out, I would have done it differently," said Carroll. "I would have asked to see the Governor and talked to him face to face. But you can't bring back the past. But when one door closes, multiple opens, and that's what has happened to me."
Carroll left office moments after state investigators questioned her regarding the Allied Veterans of the World scandal. She was never accused of any wrongdoing.
When Channel 4's Kent Justice asked her Thursday, Carroll said she has not heard from the FDLE, since she resigned.

Even Kristen Wiig grates in 'Girl Most Likely'
BY RICHARD ROEPER Sun-Times Columnist July 18, 2013 9:00PM
Imogene (Kristen Wiig) inexplicably bonds with her mother's boarder (Darren Criss) in "Girl Most Likely."
Imogene Kristen Wiig
Zelda Annette Bening
George Matt Dillon
Lee Darren Criss
Ralph Christopher
Roadside Attractions presents a film directed by Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini. Written by Michelle Morgan. Running time: 103 minutes. Rated PG-13 (for language and sexual content). Opening Friday at local theaters.
Updated: August 20, 2013 6:11AM
We're still going to do this?
We're still going to get movies about the smart and lovable but insanely insecure single gal in New York City whose life falls completely apart because her narcissistic idiot of a boyfriend dumps her?
We're going to endure another movie in which the single gal's cartoonishly snooty girlfriends drop her like a fake Fendi bag because she's going through some tough times?
Oh, yes. And we're only about 5 percent of the way through our slog through the swamp of clichés that is "Girl Most Likely," a forgettable movie with a forgettable title about forgettable characters I'd just as soon as forget.
This feels like something a "Miss Congeniality"-era Sandra Bullock would have considered and then said, "Nah, too obvious and broad and tries too hard even for me, and I'm 'Miss Congeniality'-era Sandra Bullock!"
You know you're in your trouble when the prologue kid-version of your main character is a precocious, thoroughly unlikable diva. Why do we want to see a story about the grown-up version of THIS person?
The usually irresistible Kristen Wiig plays Imogene, who lives with the aforementioned pretty-boy jerk and works as a blurb writer for a magazine.
Imogene's job, we're told, is to write five-sentence descriptions of plays. Indeed such assignments exist, but if that's the entirety of your job, you have a really good job.
That Imogene concocts a fake suicide attempt, complete with pills by her side and a carefully crafted note, just to get the ex-boyfriend's attention does not endear her to us. The botched hoax leads to a trip to the hospital, where Imogene is remanded to the care of her estranged mother Zelda — and look out, here comes Annette Bening, working the garish outfits and the "Joisy" accent like nobody's business.
Oh, boy.
The broke and broken Imogene has no choice but to move back home to Ocean City, where Zelda lives with her boyfriend (Matt Dillon), a lout who claims to be CIA and says his name is "George Boosh"; Imogene's seemingly mentally challenged brother Ralph (Christopher Fitzgerald), who is obsessed with crustaceans, and a boarder named Lee (Darren Criss), who sings in a Backstreet Boys cover band.
And oh, yeah, there's a whole thing about Imogene's dead dad, whom she always idolized.
Let the wacky hijinks begin!
As directed by Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini (who gave us the great "American Splendor"), "Girl Most Likely" at times has as an indie feel, as if the writers and directors were going for a "Little Miss Sunshine" vibe. The problem is a script that never leaves an obvious joke unturned or a predictable plot point unexplored, and a talented group of actors who seem to be missing the mark as a team.
Nobody in this cast — and I mean nobody with more than one or two speaking lines — should feel great about their work in this film. Even Wiig, who is as appealing an actress as there is in movies today, seems lost in trying to play a character who just doesn't seem particularly smart or kind or sympathetic, even though of course we have to believe she's smart and kind and sympathetic or what's the point in a film such as this?
Weird things happen in this movie. The brother has created a protective suit inspired by the shell of a mollusk. Imogene and the hunky Backstreet Boy impersonator develop a bond that never, ever feels real. We get one of the stranger and least effective end-of-movie cameos I've ever seen. The mystery of Imogene's missing father is played out in clunky fashion with no payoff.
Nothing to see here. It's supposed to be light comedy, but this is grim stuff.
