Due to its greater head- and legroom, passengers in the extended cab will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Toyota Tundra than in the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD. The Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD will be a favorite with tall drivers and their passengers, since it has much greater head- and legroom than the Toyota Tundra.
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD is somewhat more expensive than the Toyota Tundra. Another consideration is the Destination Charge, which is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle to the dealer from where it's built. Both the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD and the Toyota Tundra have similar Destination Charges.
The Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD is about the same width as the Toyota Tundra. If you go with the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Toyota Tundra.
With somewhat higher torque, the engine of the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD transmits a bit more power to the wheels than the Toyota Tundra.
The Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD has a significantly larger turning radius than the Toyota Tundra, making it much more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.
When considering towing capacity, the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD is clearly the choice over the Toyota Tundra for pulling heavy loads. The Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD has a little more horsepower than the Toyota Tundra.
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit the same number of people in the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD as you will the Toyota Tundra.
The Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD comes with essentially the same basic warranty as the Toyota Tundra.

There's been a lot of interest around the Reading Royals ever since the team was put up for sale.
Officials said they've been contacted by more than a dozen potential buyers.
The Berks County Convention Center Authority and SMG announced plans last month to sell the team.

The nuclear renaissance requires safety as its central focus. Industry vigilance at all levels is key to accident prevention, but only favorable public opinion will allow the industry to realize...
Face-Off: The Nuclear Non-Starter
delay increases capital costs for existing facilities and creates disincentives to go forward with construction of new nuclear plants."
Preventing Disaster
To a certain degree, the waste-disposal issue represents a red herring that anti-nuclear groups have used as a rallying cry against the industry. The true safety issues involving transportation and storage of spent fuels are relatively minor, compared with more credible risks to public health: terrorism and weapons proliferation.
After the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, the nuclear industry undertook an exhaustive study of terrorism risks affecting nuclear plants. The details are classified, but EPRI concluded that the risks of a terrorist attack on a nuclear plant are "on the same realm of other low-probability sequences in the design basis today, and consequences are small," Vine says.
Independent researchers, however, are less sanguine about the issue.
In a February 2003 study, analysts from Princeton University, MIT, and three security-policy think tanks found a significant risk of "catastrophic radiation release" in the water-cooled tanks that store older spent-fuel rods. An attack that would drain the tanks could result in effects that exceed Chernobyl in terms of the magnitude of contamination, according to the study. Building new storage facilities to house spent fuel would cost the industry an estimated $3.5 billion to $7 billion.
"Is it worth spending a few billion dollars?" asks Frank von Hippel, a professor of public and international affairs in Princeton's program on science and global security, and one of the study's authors. "We can't calculate what the probability is, and it becomes a political question."
What is troubling about this issue is that the industry's regulators and research institutions don't seem interested in discussing it, according to von Hippel. "The industry seems to treat any problem as a PR problem, not a real problem," he says. "It would be to their benefit to say, 'You've raised an interesting question and we'll look into what can be done about it.' But instead they just say, 'There's no problem.'"
MIT's Macfarlane, who was also an author on the Princeton/MIT study, points out that in the 1970s the German nuclear industry conducted terrorism-risk analyses of its spent-fuel storage systems, and its response was to build interim dry-cask storage and to reinforce some containment structures.
"A lot of reactors will have to purchase dry-cask storage before Yucca Mountain begins taking waste," Macfarlane says. "But if the industry supports that, it would be admitting there is a security problem, so they don't want to support it."
While such security threats raise concerns, perhaps the more pressing nuclear-related problem involves proliferation of nuclear weapons. One needs to look no further than the daily newspaper to understand the nature of the threat, but tying that threat to the U.S. nuclear power industry requires connecting a few dots. In short, to the degree the industry expands in this country, other countries would likely follow suit, and that creates more proliferation risks.
"People who promote nuclear power as an answer to the greenhouse problem have the proliferation question before them," von Hippel says. "The public debate does not

National Transportation Safety Board
Office of Public Affairs
An experimental airplane of the same series that the National Transportation Safety Board urged the Federal Aviation Administration to ground seven months ago, until a flight control problem could be corrected, was involved in another fatal accident last week.
On November 6, 2009, a Zodiac CH-601XL, an experimental amateur-built airplane, was destroyed as a result of an in- flight breakup near Agnos, Arkansas, killing the pilot who was the sole occupant. The debris field was scattered over an area more than 600 feet long. Both wings had separated from the fuselage in-flight.
In April 2009, the NTSB called on the FAA to ground the Zodiac CH-601XL after the Safety Board linked six accidents involving that aircraft model to aerodynamic flutter, a phenomenon in which the control surfaces and wings of the airplane can suddenly oscillate and lead to catastrophic structural failure. Those accidents killed a total of ten people. Preliminary investigation of the November 6 accident in Arkansas reveals a failure mode similar to that seen in the earlier crashes.
The Safety Board's urgent recommendation to the FAA was to "prohibit further flight of the Zodiac CH-601XL, both special light sport aircraft and experimental, until such time that the FAA determines that the CH-601XL has adequate protection from flutter." The FAA replied in July that they lacked "adequate justification to take immediate certificate action to ground the entire fleet."
The Zodiac is available as a ready-to-purchase airplane (classified as a special light sport aircraft), which is manufactured by Aircraft Manufacturing and Design, LLC, and as an amateur-built plane from a kit (classified as an experimental aircraft) available from the designer, Zenith Aircraft Company.
On November 7, one day after the accident in Arkansas, the FAA issued a Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin strongly recommending that all owners and operators of Zodiac CH-601XL/CH650 airplanes comply with a Safety Alert/Safety Directive issued by the manufacturer, Aircraft Manufacturing and Design, LLC. The Safety Alert/Safety Directive requires all owners of special light sport aircraft models to make structural modifications to the airplane and add aileron counter-balances before further flight. Since the directives of the manufacturers of special light sport aircraft must be complied with, those aircraft not in compliance are effectively prohibited from further flight.
The designer, Zenith Aircraft Company, has asked the owners of the kit-built experimental airplanes to make the same modifications, but there is no requirement that the modifications be completed before further flight is attempted.
"We are pleased that the FAA and the manufacturer have acted on the safety-of-flight issues that we identified with the Zodiac special light sport airplane. We are troubled, however, that no modifications are required on the amateur-built planes," said NTSB Chairman Deborah A.P. Hersman. "We are very concerned that a lack of required compliance may lead to more accidents like the one in Arkansas, and others we've already seen," she said.
The Safety Board's investigation of the November 6 accident is on-going.
NTSB Office of Public Affairs: (202) 314-6100
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is an independent federal agency charged with determining the probable cause
of transportation accidents, promoting transportation safety, and assisting victims of transportation accidents and their families.

Dentures .....will he freak when he finds out ?
I am 33 and have dentures. I was in an abusive relationship is why. He knocked my teeth out. my dentures are pretty, and look real, they were sculpted from my dental records and pictures of me before I lost my teeth. They do not look like old people teeth. I put a lot of money into making them look as real as possible. I am built pretty good, I have nice hair and skin, I stay tanned and stay in shape. The only thing about me that I hate is my teeth being fake. I haven't kissed anyone since I got them, and I am so scared that when I tell the one I am dating, that I have fake teeth, that he will freak. But I'm afraid if I don't tell him, then he might feel it when we kiss and really freak. What do I do ? And....GUYS : If you had a good looking gal who was fun to be with , had a good personality, and a good head on her shoulders, and adored you and then you found out her teeth was fake, what would you do ?
What's Your Opinion?
Most Helpful Opinion
Anonymous,First of all, congratulations on getting out of that relationship. I can't imagine how hard that was (is), and the fact that you moved on, and are where you are today, should give you constant courage to keep moving forward with whatever life throws your way.As far as your guy is concerned, I can't imagine a guy that is really into you letting that mess things up. I mean, really, that is such a minor thing in my mind, I probably wouldn't even think twice about it. Trust me, when a guy cares for you he will not let stuff like crazy family (if your reading baby, I'm sorry), or personal afflictions, history, or awkward bedtime preferences (... sorry baby) ruin a good thing with you.I would tell him, and also just explain everything. Also, if it knocks him back a little bit, don't freak, sometime shocking news, well, shocks us. But I am sure that everything will work out fine. Just don't let him find out by accident, because then there would be a very awkward tension that would be difficult to settle and that would really just cause undue stress.Again,... I know your worried, but I don't think you should. You've made it to where you are now, and you will keep taking each step after this as well.Best wishes.
Thank you so much. I think the day before I tell him, that I will come back and read these responses to give me more courage. I really appreciate it.
What Guys Said 3
The situation, though it may seem complicated, I think is rather easy to deal with. A good person, a good guy, hearing ahead of time you have dentures would probably be shocked, but after talking about it and hearing the story get over it. Perfect person or not, everyone is going to be initially shocked, the real question is whether or not that person will still care about you despite that, and if he does, he's a keeper. I'd tell him before hand, but only after a few dates and you're positive he likes you. Hold off on kissing, that way he becomes interested in why you aren't, and then you tell him. If he's okay with it, then you've found yourself a good guy.Use this to your advantage! Weed out bad men from good ones :)I'm so sorry for what happened, and for how well you've pushed forward, truly inspires me, thank you, and best of luck.
Thank you so much for your answer and especially for the last part, that encourages me a little more. It's funny how guys are ok with girls having fake boobs, fake hair, fake fingernails, fake tans, etc. MOST girls DO have SOMETHING fake about them, it just seems I have the worst one.
- Show Older Hide Older
Whats wrong with fake hair...as long as it looks nice and not overly done, what's wrong with that?!
It ain't that there's something wrong with it, its just a preference of certain peoples. Some people like it, some people don't, some people don't care.
What Girls Said 4
Ok, first off I just want to say.....WHAT A EFFING BASTARD! I hope he's rotting in jail for that. I'm surprised you didn't go for implants though. I'm sure it's painful but they are the best bet. Second of all, I really don't have any advice for it but I hope you get the answers you need. Good luck. And look out for more a-holes like the ex.
LOL, thanks. yeah I learned a lesson, I will never let a man do me that way again. It was one of those hard to get out of things. But the reason I have not gotten implants is, 1). I have heard too many horror stories when a person has to have ALL teeth implanted...and 2.) I have 2 small kids and I cannot be laid up for the 9 months they say that it takes to heal. Maybe later on, but right now, I'm stuck with this. Thanks for your reply. Wish me luck, if I get rejected it will destroy me.
I am with a guy who has dentures and he is only 37. He told me over the phone before we even met. I thought it was a little weird but I love him and I over look it. We kiss and we French kiss and I see no difference. Good luck and I hope the bastard ex got what he deserved!
Honestly ! You can't tell when you french kiss ? That helps me so much. Do you think you would have known if he hadn't told you ? Or are you glad he told you first or what ?
No, can't tell when french kissing and I don't think I would of known had he not tell me. I am very glad he told me because we are now serious and I am sure I would of found out sooner or later and I'd rather know than being surprised by it. I think that would be more upsetting to me. He treats me better than any guy with teeth! It doesn't matter to me. good luck!
Thanks again, that's exactly what I needed, was to know from somebody with experience. That really helps me to think maybe it's not as big of a deal as I feel like it is.

Valerie Trierweiler, the partner of French President François Hollande, began her official duties as she met her US counterpart Michelle Obama at the weekend.
Being in the spotlight is a new experience for the mother of four and she will clearly have to get used to all the attention.
France's new first lady seemed less than comfortable as the mom-in-chief enveloped her in a big hug and kissed her cheek.
The ladies were visiting a youth centre with other spouses of world leaders who are all on the Camp David G8 summit.

Answer Manitou 700c 29er Fork with Upgrades and Extras - Buy and Sell and Review Mountain Bikes and Accessories
Answer Manitou 700c 29er Fork with Upgrades and Extras.
This fork was used for one year on my bike pictured above. The elastomers are in great shape and show no signs of wear.
The arch that is currently installed has the brake stop removed so it only works with V-brakes and Maguras. I'm including the original arch if you want to run cantilever brakes.
The steerer has been upgrade to an aluminum version and is much lighter. It's 7.25" long. I'm including a new steel steerer that is 10.75" long if you need a longer steerer.
The top caps have been upgraded to the aluminum version and the original plastic ones are included.
Also included are some extra elastomers.
This is a great fork and is very hard to find. It will accept a 29er tire.

Joe Wilson Is Your Pre-Existing Condition (Dot Com)
The Internet works fast. So fast that this website appeared 7 minutes and 13 seconds before Rep. Joe Wilson had his unfortunate outburst last night. (It's those 4 Chan guys. I think they're mystics. Have you ever seen them? Neither have I, but I hear they have translucent skin.)
Do you know who else works fast? Democratic campaign contributors. According to Boing Boing's Cory Doctorow at 10:38 last night…
Simon sez, "I managed to track down a spokesman for ActBlue, the online fundraising tool for Democratic politicians, and found out that within two hours after Joe Wilson yelled out 'You lie' to the president, his opponent Rob Miller raised $25,000 from people who linked to his page on Twitter and blogs."
And that was as of two hours after his outburst. Apparently, that figure's risen up to at least $69,000 by this morning.
Wow! For the first time in history, yelling out obnoxious dogmatic negatives in the middle of a serious explanation of facts actually isn't paying off. Go figure.

Electricity Supply:
Efforts Under Way to Develop Solar and Wind Energy
RCED-93-118: Published: Apr 16, 1993. Publicly Released: May 18, 1993.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-6082
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on governmental and private industry's efforts to develop renewable energy technologies, focusing on: (1) barriers that discourage electric utilities from using wind and solar technologies; (2) public and private efforts to foster wind and solar energy use; and (3) ways the Department of Energy's (DOE) programs could assist in further development of wind and solar technologies.
GAO found that: (1) the major barriers that discourage wind, photovoltaic, and solar thermal technology development and use include the restricted availability of wind and solar technology in certain geographic regions due to weather conditions, its high cost in comparison with fossil fuels, and the utility companies' view that wind and solar technologies are risky investments; (2) wind energy developers have taken the lead in promoting and creating new markets for wind energy by addressing cost and technological questions and benefitting from federal and state financial assistance and environmental incentives; (3) DOE and photovoltaic industry groups have several efforts underway to lower its costs by advancing photovoltaic technology, expanding markets, and addressing regulatory barriers; (4) DOE has assumed leadership in developing solar thermal technology and has entered into joint ventures to develop central receivers and dish stirling technologies; and (5) DOE actions which could foster greater advancements in wind, photovoltaic, and solar thermal technologies include expanding DOE research and development funding for renewable energy technologies, developing methods to better evaluate cost and resource alternatives, and encouraging greater use of renewable energy by federal agencies.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: DOE commented that upon arrival of the new administration's management team it reassessed the wind and solar programs. This resulted in a 26-percent increase in the fiscal year 1994 budget request for wind and solar programs, to $141 million over fiscal year 1993 appropriations of $112 million. DOE also stated that it will continue to give these programs priority consideration in future budget planning cycles.
Recommendation: To help ensure effective use of DOE programs for encouraging wind and solar energy use, the Secretary of Energy should reassess DOE energy technology research and development funding for wind and solar energy technologies to ensure that it is commensurate with their potential to meet National Energy Strategy goals.
Agency Affected: Department of Energy
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: DOE stated that it has increased the emphasis on its Integrated Resource Planning program, which is the principal program area aimed at the development of analytical tools that utilities use to consider energy from all sources in their planning processes. DOE's fiscal year 1994 budget request of $6.8 million for Integrated Resource Planning is a 38-percent increase over the fiscal year 1993 appropriation. DOE also stated that it will continue to emphasize this activity in future budget cycles.
Recommendation: To help ensure effective use of DOE programs for encouraging wind and solar energy use, the Secretary of Energy should accelerate the development of analytical tools to help utilities and regulators incorporate the costs and benefits, including environmental, of developing and using each energy resource into the utility planning process.
Agency Affected: Department of Energy
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: DOE increased the fiscal year 1994 budget request for the photovoltaics by 24 percent, to $78 million. Included in this request are programs to identify opportunities for use of photovoltaics in both the commercial and federal sectors. The 1994 budget request also includes a 330-percent increase in the Federal Energy Management Program to $19.6 million which, according to DOE, will permit a commensurate increase in activities that could increase the utilization of photovoltaics by federal agencies. In addition, DOE stated that both the Bonneville and Western power marketing administrations initiated programs to encourage customer utilities to consider all options, including renewables, when meeting new demand. Increased funding was also requested for fiscal year 1994 for the integrated resources planning program, which promotes consideration of these options.
Recommendation: To help ensure effective use of DOE programs for encouraging wind and solar energy use, the Secretary of Energy should consider assigning a higher priority to: (1) identifying cost-effective applications of photovoltaics by federal agencies; and (2) efforts by the Bonneville and Western Area Power Marketing Administrations to assist customer utilities in identifying and installing renewable energy technologies where appropriate to help meet future energy needs.

International Expert in the field of ICTs and Economic Empowerment of Women and author of "Asian Women in the Digital Economy"
Wednesday, June 2.
Dr. Swasti Mitter explored the impact of transnational relocation of information processing work on the quantity and quality of women's employment in the developing world. Her talk focused on IT Enabled Services, such as data entry, medical transcription, or customer care services processed in call centers. It was placed in the context of accelerating trends in the transference of service sector jobs by global companies from high waged countries to low waged ones.
She assessed the challenges and opportunities that these relocated jobs, now running into millions, have brought to women and men in countries such as in India, Ghana or the Philippines. She suggested areas of intervention, for policymakers and donor agencies, to make such windows of opportunities in the Internet economy, sustainable and equitably distributed across gender. With the role of interventions in mind, she highlighted areas of activities and occupations where skills were proving scarce, yet the training for acquiring such skills is relatively inexpensive and hence could be made accessible, with support from national governments and international agencies, to underprivileged women. She explained the rationale of encouraging the private sector to be part of this strategic intervention.
India has been the prime mover, and so far, the most successful country, in receiving information processing jobs, outsourced from developed countries to developing ones. It is in this context that Dr. Mitter presented the findings of her recent survey in India of the role of women in local companies that provide such services to overseas clients. The new employment opportunities, as she narrated, have led to economic and social empowerment, on an unprecedented scale, of a vast number of young women who would have remained unemployed or have settled for less lucrative a profession. In the light of her observation and documentation, she in conclusion discussed the potentials of replicating the success of India elsewhere in Asia or Africa.
Dr. Swasti Mitter is currently an independent scholar and an international consultant in the field of ICTs and Economic Empowerment of Women. She was previously Professor of Gender and Technology at the University of Brighton, UK. She also held Visiting Fellowships at the Center for the Study of Women, UCLA, USA, and at the Science and Technology Policy Research Unit of the University of Sussex, UK. Between 1994 and 2000, as Deputy Director of the United Nations University Institute of New Technologies she initiated a series of research projects on the impact of new technologies on women's employment funded by UNDP, UNIFEM, IDRC and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands. Since 2001, she has been contributing, as an expert or as a consultant, to a wide range of UN agencies and academic institutions, to research and publications relating to ICTs and economic empowerment of women. Her most recent research, in collaboration with the Institute of Social Studies Trust, Delhi, entails a preliminary investigation of the impact of offshore outsourcing of IT Enabled Services on the quality and quantity of women's employment in India. Professor Mitter has numerous publications in the field of globalisation, gender and new technology, which include "Asian Women in the Digital Economy (UNDP, Malayasia, 2000)."

ASPEN(AP) - The owner of an Aspen dog-sledding operation has pleaded not guilty to animal cruelty charges, and a judge scheduled a trial for October.
Dan MacEachen entered his plea Tuesday after negotiations with prosecutors failed to produce a plea agreement.
MacEachen faces eight counts of animal cruelty. Prosecutors allege he didn't provide proper nutrition and veterinary care for eight of the approximately 250 dogs under his care. The eight animals were seized from MacEachen in December.
MacEachen has denied the allegations. He says his dogs are well-cared for and receive regular check-ups and proper nutrition.
The trial is set for Oct. 8-10.
Prosecutors and MacEachen's attorney said they expect plea agreement talks to continue.

June 17, 2009
On June 17, 2009, McDermott Will & Emery ("MWE") and the National Association of Chain Drug Stores co-hosted a first-ever luncheon program, entitled Impact of First DataBank AWP Settlement at MWE's Manhattan office.
Don Bell, Esq., General Counsel of the National Association of Chain Drug Stores, and T. Reed Stephens, Esq., partner in the Health Law and Trial Departments of MWE's Washington, D.C. office, discussed the background of the Prescription Access Litigation, including the New England Carpenters v. First DataBank, Inc., McKesson Corp., et al. matter (D. Mass.); the recent court-approved settlement of the litigation; and the likely after-effects of the settlement's terms on prescription drug reimbursement by both government and private third party payers. [First DataBank is one of a small number of companies that publish prices for FDA-approved drugs that are, in turn, used by many of these third party payers to determine what pharmacies will be paid for dispensing these drugs.] Mr. Stephens focused his presentation on familiarizing luncheon attendees with the specifics of the Average Wholesale Price ("AWP") litigation which has been raging for many years between plaintiffs and pharmaceutical manufacturers in various state and federal venues. Mr. Bell followed up with an overview of the important policy issues raised by the settlement and the resulting appellate challenges mounted by the retail pharmacy sector in response to the non-monetary terms of the settlement. Both of the speakers also discussed the recent filing of a new class action lawsuit by self-insured employers against several major retail pharmacy chains alleging that the pharmacies had used inflated drug AWPs to overcharge these employers for their employees' prescription drug coverage. Section members asked a number of probing questions regarding the possibility of pharmacies having to cope with reduced drug reimbursement from insurers as a result of First DataBank's settlement pledge to reduce by 5% the published AWP of thousands of prescription drugs beginning in September of this year.

Searching for the Seattle equivalent of L.A.'s Mexican food...
Seriously folks. Is La Carta de Oaxaca the best we can do?
Does anyone know ANYWHERE (that's a sit down restaurant, not a taco truck) that has delicious, authentic Mexican food?
Or do I have to head to Los Angeles when I've got a serious jones for it?
Spudsocks, You will have to drive South to Tacoma. There, at 40th & McKinley (an area Tacoma police refer to as "Sector 4") you will find El Compadre`. Walk past the bars on the doors & windows and through the grocery store to the restaurant in back. There you will find truly great Mexican food. Brush up on your Spanish though, English is not spoken at El Compadre`.
(Saturday morning, Menudo is served from 9:00 on. It's terrific.)
G.F.L., in Seattle proper. The closest you are going to find in Seattle is El Puerco Lloron on the Hillclimb in the Market, but even it -- though delicious -- is not the authentic place that I know you are describing. DK the Tacoma place mentioned, but it surely sounds plausible.
Oh, BTW, just so you can really, really know what you're missing:
The only places I have found that are a step above edible are:
El Purco Lloron on the stair climb of Pike Place Market
and El Gallito in the Central Distric at 1700 20TH Ave. Be warned that El Gallito's margaritas dont taste strong but come with a double shot of tequila.
For breakfeast I've liked Senor Moose Cafe on Leary in Ballard. The sauces are good and they use Cojito cheese.
Im not very fond of Guaymas or Malenas.
Otherwise you have to go to Eastern Washington.
I've only been once, but El Quetzal in Beacon Hill knocked my socks off.
Here's a mini-review I wrote:
re: creepygirl
I just went to El Quetzal today and loved it. It's definitely not L.A.-style west coast Mexican - it's totally D.F. (Mexico City) style. I don't think I ever had pambazos in L.A. Still worth a trip.
I need to go back sometime when they have lengua - they were out today.
re: creepygirl
We were at El Quetzal Friday night-- be cautioned, it closes promptly at 8. I had the chorizo and cactus huarache. It was delicious.
re: hertzdonut
I have--in fact, I even recommended it earlier in this thread. Muy Macho is the best in Seattle, I think, and I love it...but La Tarasca is even better. I have dreams about the texture of those tortillas.
Not Mexican, but delicious nice Southwestern food can be had at Cactus in Madison Park. I also like El Camino in Fremont which is Mexican, just not the kind most Americans are used to. Fabulous handmade tamales.
I've heard good things from picky Mexican food eaters about Taquerio del Rio, in White Center, and Juan Colorado and Muy Macho, both in South Park. I also like El Puerco Lloron, and La Cocina del Puerco in Bellevue which is practically identical though the staff says the restaurants aren't related, and these places are actually the only two that really remind me of places I've been in Mexico.
I like Burrito Loco on Holman Road, too, but it doesn't really remind me of the kind of LA taqueria it sounds like you're after. But, neither does La Carte de Oaxaca, so I guess I'm not exactly sure what you want.
re: TheDexter
Tacqueria Maestro on Pac. Hwy. S. in Sea-Tac just n. of 518. Totally dumpy surroundings but very clean truck and (outdoor) dining area. They have GOAT on the regular menu!! This place rocks and is the least gringo TT in the Sea. area. If you are on the s. end and eating at the Valley trucks (and there ARE a bunch of good ones), you owe it to yourself to check out Maestro
Upon the recommendation of this list, I stopped at La Tarasca in Centralia on a return trip from Portland to Seattle yesterday. I sampled the chile relleno (pretty good), pork taco (excellent) and finished with 3 tortillas, which were the best I have ever eaten. They are made in house and the owner has refined the process of how to make these all-white-corn cirles of joy so delightfully soft, almost pillow-like. I would travel the distance from Seattle to Centralia alone for those tortillas. A fabulous (and hot) green tomatillo sauce paired with them beautifully.
After moving here from southern California, I was getting desperate for some really good Mexican food. People kept sending me to Mama's in Belltown, which truly sucks--greasy, flavorless, cheese-smothered glop. But nowhere else I tried was a whole lot better, and I had just about given up hope when I found La Costa on SW 152nd Street in Burien. The place has a nice, homey feel, and there are lots of regulars. The crowd is always a mixture of Latino families and locals who appreciate really good Mexican food that isn't tarted up for the gringos. The service is great, and many of the servers have been there for years. The margaritas are potent and the jukebox in the bar is full of Mexican pop tunes. But go on Friday nights before 8 pm and you'll catch a fabulous live Mariachi band (and you'll probably see me and my husband there!)
re: MsMaryMc
I can't believe people sent you to Mama's! Even people I know who love it recognize that it's like junk food, not authentic by a long shot.
re: christy319
I had so many people recommend Mama's, I went back three times!! I kept thinking, maybe they were just having a bad day... I finally figured out that bad days were the rule there, and haven't gone since. But every time I see a poll done by somebody like the Weekly, they get picked as "best Mexican food in Seattle." No accounting for tastes!
re: MsMaryMc
Populist "Best of"s tend to be less than discerning. And honestly, thank goodness--most of the best places don't operate at a scale that would enable them to serve the large number of people whose votes are needed to win one of these votes. The result would likely be either (1) huge waits, or (2) expansion at a rate that is uncomfortable for the proprietor, and ultimately unable to sustain their high quality and service standards.
re: MsMaryMc
How's their menudo?
I had lunch at El Puerco Lloron today. Always delicious. FYI, especially for vegetarians and guacamole addicts, they will make you guacamole tacos if you ask for them (not on the menu). Three amazing tortillas filled with scoops of their wonderful guac. I get it with a side of rice and black beans (their default is pinto beans) and it's perfect.
La Carta de Oaxaca- its in Ballard and great. No reservations so show up early if you don't want to wait. The women cook and the men are the waiters.
The White Center / South Park neighborhoods have a number of LA style (at least in ambience) restaurants, but it's a long drive for me and I haven't been down that way recently enough to offer any specific suggestions.
In North Seattle, I favor La Botana (8552 Greenwood Ave N.). Central Mexico style cooking. Their chile braised goat (birria de chivo) is excellent and they do a unique style of menudo - a rich, but not intensely chile red broth, both, btw, available 7-days a week (none of this weekends only stuff). Spanish is helpful, but not essential (unless you need to ask questions about menu items or details of preparation). Good horchata, with free refills.
re: WesN
Tried tacos at Juan Colorado in South Park recently. It was good, better than the taco truck average at truck prices, but nothing outstanding. A big space with a bar-type atmosphere. In this 'hood I would probably go back to Muy Macho first, because it has a better selection of salsas and its meats are of comparable quality. But I am intrigued because Juan C has "michocan" style carnitas on the menu, possibly (hopefully!) something like those from La Tarasca.
Went to Alcatraz on Rainier Ave. S. also. They do tortillas hecha a mano for a modest extra cost, which is great, and their fish and nopales tacos are tasty (the asada was less successful). They offer no pork, which may make sense in neighborhood with a significant muslim population (I presume), but for Mexican fare this seems unnaturally limited. Probably will return when the time is right.
re: equinoise
I drove by Alcatraz last night and it appears to have closed. It was dark and a "for rent" sign was out.
First off, before taking a Mexican food recommendation from someone in Seattle, pleeeeeez ask where they are from... Seattlites don't know jack about Mexican food (outside of taco trucks).
I miss being surrounded by amazing Mexican food, El Puerco Lloron helps, but isn't quite there. El Gallitio the same, a little too American. La Costa in Burien is a fav and Taqueria del Rio is yum, but sorry: my taco truck is still the tops. People who like Mama's must smoke 2 packs a day--it's disgusting and unsanitary.
re: Goofyhoundog
Santa Fe Cafe (Phinney Ridge) has very good red chile sauces, pork adobo, posole, black bean soup, flour tortillas...have not tried the Rellenos but they have an intelligent way with Southwestern & Mexican.
re: staffstuff
I think the S.F.C. considers their cuisine "New Mexican".
re: Goofyhoundog
I loved Gay and Larry's. I grew up in Riverside and we went at least once a month. Horrible service and great (unauthentic) Mexican food. We always got a plate of chips and cheese (came out on a large oval hot metal plate) and I ordered a 1A -- 1 taco and 1 chile relleno. When the restaurant closed, the owner said she was planning to write a cookbook, but I haven't seen one out.
re: Goofyhoundog
I just found this article online...
Gay and Larry's Chile Rellenos
Enough oil to fill your deep fryer (they need to bob free in oil)
1 27-ounce can Ortega Whole Green Chiles (12-14 chiles per can)
3 cups Krusteaz Complete Buttermilk Pancake Mix
2 cups water
12-14 ½-inch-square by 2 ¼-inch-long pieces of Velveeta Cheese
½cup corn starch (for dredging)
Fill deep fryer to manufacturer's recommended amount and heat to 375
degrees. Remove chiles from can, drain and lay on paper towels. Dry
them thoroughly (pat dry if necessary). Mix pancake mix and water to
form thick batter. Place Velveeta piece inside chile and dredge in
corn starch. Dip chile into batter covering entire chile (batter will
be thick). Drop carefully into hot oil. Cook for about 2 minutes,
turning to ensure even browning. Remove when golden brown. Enjoy.
re: dshannon1042
Wow! That sounds disgusting!
re: Lauren
Yet surprisingly good
re: dshannon1042
...And this is what Angelinos consider Mexican food? Being from SoCal is apparently the culinary equivalent of being able to see Russia from Alaska.
re: dawsonct
Oh, you wanted AUTHENTIC Mexican food... actually, Angelinos recognize that this is no more authentic Mexican food than say Taco Bell. We just don't get snooty about it.
No one has mentioned Agua Verde (that's with a G not a Q) if you should look it up. Honestly I do not know what LA Mex is, AV is a multi-roomed old house on the canal. Lots of odd corners and sunshine streaming in, esp. in the back room - like a sun room. And the food is a bit different from anything else I've seen in Seattle.
re: vicsailgarden
Yes, I do enjoy Agua Verde on a lovely summer day. Don't make it over there much.
We tried El Compadre in Tacoma the weekend before last. Saturday afternoon. The place was practically empty when we arrived. I ordered the ceviche -- got shrimp on a tortilla. I also ordered the mole con pollo. Both were extremely bland. Only if I lived around the corner would I ever eat at El Compadre.
This was an unfair question to begin with. L.A. has a Mexican population greater than Guadalajara and one of the most vital and competative restaurant scenes in the country. To compare L.A. to our humble area so far from Azatlan is a losing proposition. We, in Washington grew up eating mediocre Mexican in restaurants, and as much as we have our favorites, they can't match-up to L.A.'s.
That said, there are good signs around. More restaurants are using fresh chile to make relleno rather than canned. Small restaurants are springing up in Mexican enclaves that cater almost exclusively to Mexicans. One of these is Pollo Rico in Everett. Their grilled chicken is as good as those found anywhere.
re: kirkj
You hit the bullseye. I'd add that there is no "L.A. style" Mexican restaurant. Because of the huge Mexican population there, you have lots of genuinely authentic restaurants serving food from virtually every Mexican state -- e.g., Durango, Jalisco, Sinaloa, Verzcruz, Oaxaca, each of which has its own "style.". It is likewise unfair to compare other types of ethnic food available in Seattle to its counterpart in Los Angeles. Nothing in Seattle compares to the variety and authenticity of the Thai restaurants in Thai Town or the Chinese restaurants in Monterey Park and the San Gabriel Valley.. Even though the ethnic populations in Seattle can't match those in Los Angeles, however, it only takes one restaurant with one talented cook at the stove to produce remarkable authentic ethnic cuisine. And that can happen in Seattle, as well as anywhere. A leading example of this is the amazingly wonderful Lotus of Siam in Las Vegas, which serves exquite and authentic Northern and Northeastern Thai food.
I am a seattlite, so take my answer with a grain of salt. But oh, wait, I did live in Mexico, so I think I know a little bit about what I'm talking about.
Mr. Villas on Lake City. Not everything is good (I reccomend against the fajitas), but they have tortas like what we always got for lunch at work and the carne asada was perfect...
The stuff that I ordered that I actually had in Mexico (like the tortas) was with out fail very good. When I tried the americanized stuff (I certainly never had a fajita while I was there) that is when I ran into trouble there...
re: dagoose
I agree-- but I am also a Seattleite. The place used to be called Pancho Villa's but the owners changed the name a few years ago to attract a bigger crowd--if I remember correctly we were told that Americanizing the name made it less intimidating for non-Mexicanos. I thought it was an interesting story.
Anyway. I like their food mostly. I haven't been back for a while because it's a ways off for us and the last time we were there they were cleaning the bathroom and all you could smell was bleach and assorted sanitary chemicals. Did not appreciate that.
re: sophie.
Okay, I am from Texas and definitely know what good Tex-Mex is and I dont really know anything about LA mexican food but I imagine you would like places like this:
Malenas on the top of Queen Anne Hill
The Taco Bus on Rainier Ave S (past Chubby Tubby's)
The Taco Truck at Northgate (exit towards Target and then turn left into the gas station parking lot, so worth the drive, their salsa is the shit)
re: sweetwankle
It seemed that the original poster (a year ago) was not looking for a taco truck. However I feel that the best I've had has been at Tacos el Asadero or the Taco Bus. Love love love it. I was there this weekend.
My praise is in this taco truck thread:
re: mrnelso
Have not tried Senor Moose for dinner (the lines are gigantic), but have for breakfast and it seems a lot like what I used to get in Mexico for breakfast. The dinner menu seems quite regional, which is a good sign. The kitchen is filled with Mexicans, so that's a good sign too, I expect. Love the lamb birria and the albondigas at La Carta de Oaxaca. Agua Verde is tasty and fun but not really authentic per se--kind of nuevo healthy Mexican. Santa Fe is out of the question. First, to be fair to it,, it purports to be New Mexican, not Mexican, and they're two completely different things. Second, I find it way too heavy. Haven't been to El Puerco Lloron for a long time, but was never very impressed, although I realize it is very popular. The poster who pointed out it's unfair to compare Seattle to LA Mexican is correct. Don't expect to get here what you get there. Just as it's unfair to compare Vancouver Chinese with Seattle Chinese. No comparison. .. .
re: PAO
The proprietors are not Mexican, but I believe have some long experience there. Their menu selections are eclectic, but mostly very good. One evening I ordered taquitos de papas, I think, and was a little uncertain when I recognized that the owner/chefs were not there, but the hispanic cook did an absolutely fabulous job with the dish.
I'm not sure of what LA Style Mexican food is like... but I often go to Tenoch (just outside of Pioneer Square). I've only had their burritos... but they're very good. YMMV.
Taqueria La Estacion, in Burien, is pretty legit. As good as anything I've had in the PNW.
Hilariously, it appears to occupy a former Taco Bell. It's been jam-packed every time I've been, and nobody speaks much English. Worth checking out - I can't believe it took me so long to get down there myself.
re: terrier
I finally tried Taqueria La Estacion a few days ago, and I'll second that recommendation--the tacos were outstanding! I was the only gringo in the place, but the staff and my fellow diners were a remarkably friendly bunch. I'll be back, for sure!
Cocina Esparanza in the Crown Hill neighborhood N. of Ballard has always been good when I've been there. Very good food from a CHEF driven menu. Nice to taste competent interpretations using the ingredients and techniques without slavish devotion to tradition. Reading some of the reviews, however, it seems as though one negative theme that seemed to constantly be revisited was slow and sometimes surly service. Be forewarned, it is a small room and seems to be a popular alternative to La Carta, and the service can get a bit harried and forgetful when the place fills up, as it does quickly since it is open only Tues. - Sat. for dinner. Get there early, be patient, be hungry, order more than you want to eat, take the extras home and guard them until you are hungry again.
re: coney with everything
Such as?
re: christy319
We ate at La Casita last time I was in MV and it was very good. Small place--"little house" as the name says, and in a residential area near the Catholic church. My dad likes El Gitano, which is OK but I liked Casita better. Unless you are into quantity of food over quality, I'd avoid Mexico Cafe.
I don't get to MV very often, others will have deeper knowledge that me, I'm sure. There are a couple of other restaurants that my sisters like but I haven't been, can't recall the names.
My favorite local place (Greenwood) for carnitas tacos is Taqueria Tequila, 301 NW 85th St. I don't know that I'd send people there from all over town - but if you're in the neighborhood, it's the best Mexican I've found.

Mobile phones are key to Stockholm's innovative system for saving cardiac arrest victims by adding ordinary citizens to the emergency-response mix.
While spending time in Stockholm recently, I read an amazing, inspiring article in Sweden's leading newspaper, Dagens Nyheter, about an app that teams the public with health professionals to save the lives of people who fall victim to sudden cardiac arrest.
When a person goes into cardiac arrest, the survival rate decreases by 10 percent for each minute the person is not treated. Statistically, most cases of arrest occur in crowded places.
The cardiac arrest team at Sodersjukhuset, one of Stockholm's largest hospitals, decided to get the public involved in treating these cases. Volunteers can get trained in quick interventions for cardiac arrest (they sign up for training online). Once trained, volunteers are tied into the city's GIS-based system that alerts police, fire and ambulance units about the presence of any nearby cardiac arrest patient.
What this system does is include the real-time locations of all volunteers, based on information from their smart phones, so that the volunteer nearest to where the cardiac arrest occurs is also informed, by text message, of the victim's location. Because help can come from nearby volunteers as well as from police or emergency responders who might be farther away, it becomes more likely that the victim will be reached in time.
Ten years ago, Stockholm's survival rate for cardiac arrest patients was 3 percent. Last year, it was up to 10.9 percent.
The system is an example of the public/private cooperation of the future. A government-run alarm system is at the core, along with government police and firefighters, but individual members of the public have the opportunity -- in a very dramatic way -- to participate directly in a public purpose.
The idea came from doctors at the government-run hospital, and developing the system (and training volunteers) is supported by the Stockholm County Council (which runs the health care system), the Swedish Heart-Lung Foundation (a private charity) and companies that manufacture heart-restarter machines.
A huge-hats off to Dr. Marten Rosenqvist of Sodersjukhuset, one of the leaders who developed this idea. He will never need to wonder what he accomplished in his life.
And for the rest of us, the challenge is to develop more approaches that use government resources in combination with individual or private-organization initiatives. I will be writing about both the potentials and the pitfalls of public/private partnerships in some upcoming posts.

Goodness, these Oreo-stuffed chocolate chip cookies (photographed and shared by VeryCulinary, created by Picky Palate) certainly do look like cookie perfection, don't they? Expert multi-taskers, they've streamlined dessert by combining two cookies into one, neat, organized little tidy package.
Actually, when I think about it that way, these cookies sort of make me feel like a slacker. I mean, they're just cookies, and yet they're already being more productive than I am just by sitting there on a plate.
I sort of prefer this deflated double cookie, or better yet, this entire TRAY of melted, mushed-up chocolatey non-perfection sent in by reader Alissa:
Now THAT is a cookie I can sink my teeth into. It isn't intimidating, and it isn't making me feel inferior just because I'm eating a whole tray of cookies while (still) wearing my PJs at 4 PM. In fact, Alissa'a cookies look exactly how I feel when I sink into the couch to watch some TV for eight or twelve hours. Laid back little lumps – just like me.
