Apple Pay is a tidy payday for Apple with 0.15% cut, sources say
15%!?!?!?!?! Are they out of their minds!!!
Holy Crap Batman!!!
That's the worst processing rate I've heard of until now. Discover cards was the highest at my place of business at 10%. Normal credit card (Visa, Master Card, etc) run at 7%, debit cards at 6%.
I know for sure when I tell my boss (the owner) this, he blow a gasket. Heck, he might even get rid of his iPhone (he was talking about getting the 6 the other day).
T-Mobile US cuts overage charges, dares rivals to follow suit
Re: Good or Bad?
I'm on the same plan. I have a bad feeling that they are going to force us up a plan to unlimited voice, text, limited data (throttling).
Microsoft lobs pre-release Windows Phone 8.1 at devs who dare
Rolling back
Actually you can roll back to get rid of the preview, with Nokia phones. Nokia has their Nokia Software Recovery Tool which will restore the phone back to the current supported versions of firmware and O/S via USB (been there, done that).
Personally, after having used iPhones, and Android I REALLY like Windows Phone. It's fast, fluid, and easy to use. Haven't had an issue yet. As for the "lack of apps" argument, I don't see it. The majority of popular apps are there from the originators, and if not, there are third party apps that fill the void. And those that are still missing, they are on the originators roadmap and are in development.
Actor who played Rogue Two in Star Wars dies aged 67
Rocky Horror Picture show?!?!?!?
I thought Barry Bostwick played Brad Majors in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show".
Julie Larson-Green: Yes, MICROSOFT is going to KILL WINDOWS
Full circle.
NT is slowly coming back to it's original design: Processor independent.
From what I've gathered, Cutler originally wanted NT to be processor independent, meaning only the kernel and some basic low level drivers to compiled for each processor. But everything else above would be compile once, run anywhere. Complete abstraction for programs/applications.
It was abandoned in the beginning because processors weren't fast enough to make it viable, but now things are different. I'm eagerly looking forward to the new "Windows", is it's going to be rather interesting how it works out.
Google's MYSTERY barges floating off US shores: The TRUTH
No one has really noticed that the barges are owned by a shell company named "Buy and Large, LLC", which happens to be the same name of the company that destroyed earth in the movie WALL-E.
Also there are FOUR barges in the works, named "BAL0001", "BAL0010", "BAL0011", "BAL0100" . Which if you notice the numbers are in binary for 1, 2, 3, 4.
Google rolls its eyes, gives Windows Phones five more months to sync
Bloddy carriers
"All of Microsoft's Windows Phone customers worldwide....so....about a few thousand then? I'd almost say that August 31 ought to be doable!"
It really isn't MSFT's fault for not meeting the original deadline. It's the carriers that screw things up. In the USA, users have to wait for the carriers to do their "testing" of any update before it gets rolled out to the devices.
Personally, I think MSFT really should change the update process with their phones. Currently it's:
MSFT --> Manufacturer --> Carrier --> Device
What it SHOULD be, IMHO:
MSFT (O/S updates) --> Device
Manufacturer (Firmware) --> Device
Carrier (Bloatware/Crapware) --> Device
The above mimics the PC world, which most of us are used to.
Ten... ADF-based inkjet all-in-one printers
Re: Does Such a Printer Exist
You would be looking at the following:
HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One
But it only has a single tray, but you can purchase the extra tray later (pricey)
HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Premium e-All-in-One
This one comes with the second tray by default.
I have the 8600Plus, and I LOVE it!
It has wired, USB AND wireless 802.11a/b/g/n so you aren't tied to it, and yes you can scan directly to computer, or a server share via wireless Also scan to PDF, email. You can also print to it remotely, by setting up an email address with HP. If you're out and about, you email your document to the HP address (you can restrict who can print this way), and it will printed to your printer.
You can configure the printer via a web browser if it's on the network (just point to it's IP address). You can also update the firmware via it's web interface, or have it automatically check and update.
The touch screen on the printer is nice. But I rarely use it except for scanning when I put in the source docs, and say Scan to my laptop.
You can print borderless on photo-paper, and up to 8.5"x11" paper.
It has several memory card slots for direct printing from them (I haven't used this yet).
Supposedly, these use a newer type of ink, that doesn't dry up or clog as easily as their other inks. The downside is no one refills the cartridges, yet. I haven't had the printer long enough to verify this claim.
Also, the full version of the print drivers/software is NOT bloated and naggy. It's just the drivers, and OCR. I believe this is because this is considered and Office product. To many times I have dealt with their Home printers that install mega bloatware (photo/document editing, sharing, etc). This one is simple and sweet.
The ONE thing I find it lacking, is a single sheet feed tray. I don't like having to remove the tray and swap out the paper for a single photo or envelop.
Also I found that it doesn't like just a single sheet of photo-paper or just one envelop in the tray. It has a hard time picking it up. So I have to put in a stack of what-ever. Once I figured this out, it's been acceptable.
IT staffers on ragged edge of burnout and cynicism
Again it's not just IT Security folks.
They need to widen the field a bit more. I'm currently ex-IT (systems administrator), total burn out. It's because of work stress I was forced to seek psychiatric care, but unfortunately only after I walked out 5 years ago.
The problem is I really do like working on computer systems, I find it very enjoyable, challenging, and rewarding. It's all the other crap that goes with it, PHB's, unrealistic time tables, on call 24x7 (yea they say it's only X days, but it's really 24x7), and all the other shit that goes with it.
I still remember chatting with an ER doctor one night (don't ask how or why), we were comparing work hour, work load, stress, etc. Seriously, we both concluded he had better working conditions than I did.
RIP: Peak Oil - we won't be running out any time soon
Dry wells refilling on their own?
They didn't even mention the weird phenomenon that has the oil industry and geologist baffled, of old "dry wells" refilling on their own.
I first heard about it 12 years ago, while hanging out with some geologists that work for the oil industry. They quietly mentioned that there are old US wells that were believed to have been pumped dry, but when they were required inspect them by EPA (or some other govt agency), they found the wells to be full, and under pressure.
The industry and the govt kept it quiet for a long time. But recently there have some published reports about the phenomenon. Some of the ideas as to why are; Oil has seeped in from deeper sources. Oil is not from "dinosaurs" but a natural byproduct of plate tectonics. Oil is a waste product of some undiscovered micro organism that lives deep in planets crust. (Yea, some ideas are far fetched in my opinion).
But the point is, we haven't even gotten close to exhausting the planets oil supply.
As to why they haven't used the oil in the old wells? Conspiracy theory to inflate oil prices for profit? Environmental regulations? (I don't know).
Fanboi's lament – falling out of love with the iPad
Uncomfortable - no - PAINFUL
"... holding the iPad for any amount of time gets uncomfortable." Nope, it's painful!
I don't have an iPad, but I have been picking it up and playing around with it at several retail locations in the USA. I have to say that holding the iPad in my left hand and taping around with my right hand, the back of my left hand starts to hurt after a few minutes, I do mean HURT!!
I am not sure why exactly, But I think it's because it's thinner at the edges than in the middle. One would think that design feature would eliminate any issues, I guess not, for me.
50 million user Scribd scraps Flash for HTML5
"The iPad is controlled by a Silicon Valley cult that has a pathological aversion to Flash"
Damn straight Skippy! But beware of the fanboi backlash.

Pakistan floods: Oxfam calls for debt cancellation to aid recovery
IMF announces debt relief and loan for Haiti

A lot of attention has been paid to the negative side of South Sudan's ethnic groups and diverse cultures. These are the voices of those who went the extra mile. Their bravery and strength in light of the situation they faced is a testament to the extraordinary power of compassion, hope and the will to survive.
Nearly 4 million people remain in urgent need in South Sudan following the conflict that broke out last year. Over one million people have fled their homes and are displaced within the country and over 450,000 have fled to neighboring countries. We have reached more than 340,000 people with life saving essentials, but we urgently need to reach more.
More than three years after the beginning of the conflict in Syria, the scale of the crisis continues to deepen both within and outside Syria, with massive numbers of refugees, who are often living in inadequate shelter, residing in neighboring countries.

Robert William Gary Moore (4 April 1952[1] – 6 February 2011), was a Northern Irish musician, most widely recognised as a singer and virtuoso guitarist.
In a career dating back to the 1960s, Moore played with artists including Phil Lynott and Brian Downey during his teens, leading him to memberships with the Irish bands Skid Row and Thin Lizzy. Moore shared the stage with such blues and rock musicians as B.B. King, Albert King, George Harrison, and Greg Lake, as well as having a successful solo career. He guested on a number of albums recorded by high-profile musicians.
Moore grew up on Castleview Road opposite Stormont Parliament Buildings, off the Upper Newtownards Road in east Belfast, as one of five children of a promoter named Bobby and housewife, Winnie. He left the city as a teenager, because of troubles in his family - his parents parted a year later - just as The Troubles were starting in Northern Ireland.[2]
Moore started performing at a young age, having picked up a battered acoustic guitar at the age of eight. He got his first quality guitar at the age of 14, learning to play the right-handed instrument in the standard way despite being left-handed.
Aiming to become a musician, he moved to Dublin at the age of 16. Moore's greatest influence in the early days was guitarist Peter Green of Fleetwood Mac who was a mentor to Moore when performing in Dublin. Green's continued influence on Moore was later repaid as a tribute to Green on his 1995 album Blues for Greeny, an album consisting entirely of Green compositions. On this tribute album, Moore played Green's 1959 Les Paul Standard guitar which Green had lent to Moore after leaving Fleetwood Mac. Moore ultimately purchased the guitar, at Green's request, so that "it would have a good home".[3] Other early musical influences were artists such as Albert King, Elvis Presley, The Shadows and The Beatles. Later, having seen Jimi Hendrix and John Mayall's Bluesbreakers in his home town of Belfast, his own style was developing into a blues-rock sound that would be the dominant form of his career in music.
In Dublin, Moore joined the group Skid Row with Noel Bridgeman and Brendan "Brush" Shiels. It was with this group that he earned a reputation in the music industry, and his association with Phil Lynott began.[4]
In 1970, Moore moved to England and remained there, apart from two short periods in the United States. In 1973, under the moniker "The Gary Moore Band" he released his first solo album in 1973, Grinding Stone . "Grinding Stone" was issued in North America on Neil Kempfer-Stocker's fledgling record label imprint Cosmos and received "Album of the Year" accolades on KTAC-FM/Seattle-Tacoma, Washington in 1974.
In 1974 he re-joined Lynott, when he first joined Thin Lizzy after the departure of founding member Eric Bell.
From 1975 to August 1978, he was a member of Colosseum II. With the band he also collaborated with Andrew Lloyd Webber on the composer's Variations album in 1978.
In 1977, Moore re-joined Thin Lizzy, first as a temporary replacement for Brian Robertson, and on a permanent basis a year later.
In July 1979, he left the band permanently to focus on his solo career, again with help from Phil Lynott. The combination of Moore's blues-based guitar and Lynott's voice produced "Parisienne Walkways", which reached the Top Ten in the UK Singles Chart in April 1979 and the Thin Lizzy album Black Rose: A Rock Legend which reached number two in the UK album chart. Moore appears in the videos for "Waiting for an Alibi" and "Do Anything You Want To".
He experimented with many musical genres, including rock, jazz, blues, country, electric blues, hard rock and heavy metal.[5]
In 1987, he performed a guitar solo for a cover of the Beatles' "Let It Be". which was released under the group-name of Ferry Aid. The record raised substantial funds for the survivors of the MS Herald of Free Enterprise disaster. In 1990, he played the lead guitar solo on "She's My Baby" from Traveling Wilburys Vol. 3.
After a series of rock records, Moore returned to blues music with Still Got the Blues (1990), with contributions from Albert King, Albert Collins and George Harrison. The album was well received by fans. He stayed with the blues format until 1997 when he returned to the harder rock, but with a softer, more pop and ballad-oriented sound on Dark Days in Paradise followed with another change of direction in 1999, when he decided to experiment with modern dance beats on A Different Beat; this left many fans, as well as the music press, confused. He also contributed guitar sections to Richard Blackwood's 2000 album, You'll Love to Hate This.
With Back to the Blues, Moore returned to his tried and tested blues format in 2001: he continued with this style on Power of the Blues (2004), Old New Ballads Blues (2006), Close As You Get (2007) and Bad For You Baby (2008).
In January 2005, Moore joined the One World Project, which recorded a song for the 2004 Asian Tsunami relief effort. The group featured Russell Watson, Boy George, Steve Winwood, Barry Gibb, Brian Wilson, Cliff Richard, Dewey Bunnell, Gerry Beckley and Robin Gibb on vocals (in their order of appearance), and featured a guitar solo by Moore. The song, entitled "Grief Never Grows Old", was released in February 2005, reaching No. 4 on the UK Singles Chart.[6]
He also took part in a comedy skit entitled "The Easy Guitar Book Sketch" with comedian Rowland Rivron and fellow musicians Mark Knopfler, Lemmy from Motörhead, Mark King from Level 42, and David Gilmour.[citation needed]
Other collaborations included a broad range of artists including Trilok Gurtu, Dr. Strangely Strange, Jimmy Nail, Mo Foster, Ginger Baker, Jack Bruce, Jim Capaldi, B.B. King, Vicki Brown, Cozy Powell, Rod Argent, the Beach Boys, Paul Rodgers, Keith Emerson, Roger Daltrey, and Otis Taylor (musician).
In 2002, he bought a five-bedroom detached Edwardian house in Hove, just west of Brighton, Sussex, to be near his sons, Jack and Gus, from his former marriage, which had lasted from 1985 to 1993. Since 1997, he was living with his partner, an artist named Jo, and their daughter Lily (b. 1999). His daughter Saoirse, was born from an earlier relationship while he was with Skid Row.[2] His residence was reported to be on Vallance Gardens in Hove, East Sussex.[7]
Gary Moore died of a heart attack in his sleep at the age of 58 during the early hours of February 6, 2011. At the time, he was on holiday with a girlfriend at the Kempinski Hotel in Estepona, Spain. After a quiet dinner, they went for a walk on the beach before going up to their room. His girlfriend raised the alarm at 4:00 am, and tried to give him a heart massage. His death was confirmed by Thin Lizzy's manager Adam Parsons.[4][8][9]
Moore was laid to rest in St Margaret's Churchyard, Rottingdean, East Sussex, England, in a private ceremony, with only the family and close friends in attendance.
While less successful in the US, Moore was popular in Europe.[10] Throughout his career, Moore was recognised as an influence by many notable guitarists including Vivian Campbell,[11] Patrick Rondat,[12] John Norum, Paul Gilbert,[13] Gus G, Slash, Orianthi, Joe Bonamassa, Adrian Smith, Doug Aldrich, Zakk Wylde,[14] Randy Rhoads, John Sykes and Kirk Hammett.[15]
Since his death, many fellow musicians have commented on Gary Moore's talents including Ozzy Osbourne,[16] Kirk Hammett,[17] Eric Singer,[18] Doug Aldrich,[19] Tony Iommi,[20] Bob Geldof,[21] Roger Taylor,[22] Brian May,[23] Brian Downey,[24][25] Andy DiGelsomina,[26] Ricky Warwick,[27] Glenn Hughes, Bryan Adams, Henry Rollins, Scott Gorham,[28] Ignacio Garay,[29] and Mikael Åkerfeldt.[30] On 18 April 2011, a number of musicians including Eric Bell and Brian Downey, Thunder rising, Silverbird and The Business blues band gathered for a tribute concert in Whelan's bar in Dublin, Ireland titled 'The Gig For Gary'.[31]
In March 2011 Guitarist produced a tribute special with unreleased footage from 2009. Twitter was flooded with tributes from fans for several days after his death.[32]
A large statue of Moore was erected on a small island outside Skånevik, following his many performances at the Skånevik Blues Festival. The statue still stands as of July 2013.

- Always incredibleFlavorsavant81Dined on 11/20/2014Went to Marisol's last week and could not have been happier. The waitstaff was attentive and professional and knew the menu inside and out. We received excellent wine and food recommendations from Scott based on our personal preferences. There were so many incredible verbal specials in addition to the already mouth-watering written menu, the hardest part was deciding. And not once did we feel rushed, even when trying to decide on which incredible dishes to order. The table was ours for the night to enjoy good food, good wine, and good company. Be sure to bring your appetite to have room to savor enjoy as many foods as possible. Everything is delicious and intricately constructed to make for an amazing dining experience each and every time!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- We love this fine dining local treat!DaveDined on 11/15/2014The food here can compete with the better restaurants of San Francisco and New York. The NY Strip and Lamb Chops were amazing. The service was exceptional with great attention to detail. It is a bit pricy for the area but well worth it. The only negative comment is that the construction in the area makes it difficult to locate and access this fine restaurant. We will return again soon.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Anniversary DinnerMadeDined on 11/14/2014Marisol is everything people rave about and more! The chef does not disappoint! You will be amazed by how well the servers memorize the creative specialties down to the reduction sauces. They have a printed menu in the restaurant but then they add several specialties to tease your taste buds. They have an extensive wine list and their recommendations for your dinner pairings are exemplary. My husband and I had soup, salad, entrees and were stuffed! Portions do not disappoint! It is $$$$$ but worth every penny! Definitely put this on your special list :)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/8/2014Expensive, but great food, and service. Will recommend to others, but will make sure they bring thier wallets.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Our waitress was outstandingChipDined on 11/8/2014Our waitress delineated the meal options with a memory that equalled a brain surgeon. Incredible professionalism, attentiveness and warmth.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Marisol reviewzcakesDined on 11/4/2014One of the better fine dining establishments in the Triad. We had steelhead and it was cooked perfectly. This is high praise considering we have lived previously in the Pacific Northwest and are somewhat picky about seafood preparations. The food at Marisol is always consistently good but count on spending at least $100 per person; more if you like expensive wine.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- datenightsDined on 11/1/2014Food wine wait staff and chef the best in the triad.Special Features:
- OverratedUnfortunate2VIPDined on 10/11/2014If you like eating average food, a wait staff that runs around, a small mall-front ambiance, a bread table at the front door and shallow drinks, you'll love this place.
- Not very impressed.OpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 10/10/2014The main course was great. However the starter salad was disappointing. Nothing specials there. Additionally, one of the waitresses (who served our bread) did not deliver the outstanding service we were expecting of this fine dining experience. The piano bar was outstanding.Special Features:
- Amazing!Calipe01Dined on 10/4/2014This was our second time here and it was just as amazing as the first time. The food is some of the best that we have had and the service is excellent. It is somewhat expensive, but completely worth it for the quality! Will definitely be going back.Special Features:
- datenightsDined on 9/12/2014Has quickly become a favorite of ours! Last week our two top table near the restrooms has been our only dislike. Food, wine, service is absolutely one of the BEST in the triad!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointingRonaldVIPDined on 9/12/2014Have head lots about this "fine" dining place. Extremely disappointing and way too expensive. I will not be returning.Special Features:
- OUTSTANDINGOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 9/5/2014This was my first visit back in approximately 5 years. This place truly is remarkable for the quality of food and service. It is quite simply the best restaurant in Greensboro and quite possibly on some days - probably in the State. Thank goodness this little gem has yet to be discovered by all those not in the know around Sedgefield.Special Features:
- Best restaurant in Greensboro!Love2EatDined on 8/23/2014Marisol never disappoints. We have been coming here for over 10 years and it's always outstanding. Scott and Heather bring service to a new level of excellence and Trina is the best bartender around. Last year we brought some friends from Cleveland here and they loved it. When they came into town last week they specifically asked that we go to Marisol again for dinner. The only downside is that its very pricey. Plan on about $100 per person.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Superb cuisine in an odd locationNYCtravVIPDined on 8/21/2014Despite the road construction and odd location, the meal was truly outstanding! Friendly and accomodating service and a true desire to provide a great experience. I'll be back the next time I'm in Greensboro!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The following 72 reviews are from the The Marisol reviews archive.
- Impeccable quisine and serviceRosebudDined on 7/22/2014Even though the furniture and decor is outdated, the exquisite food and attentive service makes up for it. And even though most of us don't eat bread anymore, do not skip the sour dough bread. It's worth the carbs.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MarisolJimmyDined on 7/12/2014While the food was quite good the setting is mediocre to poor. Too loud, too cramped and somewhat dated.

- Exceptional foodDrJohn1943Dined on 7/11/2014My food was expertly prepared, nicely served, and most enjoyable. The rack of lamb I had was the very best I've ever had and I just got back from New Zealand where that's all they eat. The meat was ordered and came medium rare; could be cut with a fork and was served with a balsamic reduction sauce that was far better that a mint jelly-syled condiment. Everything was thoroughly enjoyable. The restaurant was small and intimate, quiet and just perfect for a dinner for two. It is on the pricery side, but worth it. I'll go back again.Special Features:
- bjosVIPDined on 6/17/2014We were in Greensboro for a business meeting and happened upon Marisol through Opentable.com. The entire experience was fabulous. The food was incredible and the service provided by Heather was second to none. We also enjoyed a bottle of very nice red wine with our meal. Totally gourmet, fresh, not the least bit stuffy or intimidating. A really perfect dining experience.Special Features:
- Not even close - Best in TriadPCHFamilyDined on 5/24/2014Returning to Marisol for our anniversary had me a little nervous thinking there was no way they could live up to our expectations after our last experience. However, it was even better! I would have never guessed that I would have one of the best, if not THE best, meals of my life in Greensboro, NC. My wife and I will be back again and again and again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistent ExcellenceMario2BDined on 5/23/2014My wife and I dine at Marisol each year on our anniversary, as it is our favorite restaurant in the Piedmont Triad. The service is always spectacular and Scott usually takes care of us, and is one of the most accomplished waiters we have ever experienced. Friendly, helpful and unobtrusive. A true gentleman. And he knows his wine. The food at Marisol is always perfectly seasoned, perfectly prepared, and creative. The sauces for each dish, whether seafood or meat, are always wonderful. Dessert never disappoints, it is always a nice compliment to the meal. We have been there for at least the last 5 years, probably longer, and it will remain our special occasion dining choice. Always 5 stars at the Marisol.Special Features:
- Best in the TriadPGtheRealtorDined on 5/17/2014We enjoyed a fabulous evening at Marisol recently with two other couples. The food was absolutely wonderful and the service was first rate. Could not have had a finer meal at any price. My guests were very impressed and say they will definitely return with their other friends. Only problem is trying to get a taxi back from Marisol late night but well worth the hassle.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- lived up to it's reputationxcjohnnyDined on 5/7/2014I have heard this was a great restaurant, and I was not disappointed. The swordfish and striped bass were very fresh and perfectly prepared. The crab soup was perfection. Can't wait to check out the piano bar (and another bowl of soup).Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 5/3/2014Pleasantly surprised by this wonderful place. Food was top notch, among the best in this area. I've been fortunate enough to dine in great restaurants in major cities in New York, DC, California and Florida over many years. The Marisol ranks right up there. Expensive, especially for this area, but you do get what you pay for. Don't let the small strip mall location scare you off. Highly recommended and will be my new first choice for special occasion dinners.Special Features:

The banana dessert was rich and delicious. Definitely a 5 star dining experience and we can't wait to return!Special Features:

I highly recommend The Marisol.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- High ExpectaionsRoadtriprobDined on 2/22/2014I have high expectaions when going to a noteable fine dining eatery. Marisol not only met but exceeded those expectaions of professioonalism, quality in food. and great service. Scott was very knowledgable, I was impressed he knew ALL the "secret" menu items and how there were prepared as well as items that have been a signature dish. I have visited the Marisol before and decided to return- both experiences were equal in satisfaction. Well worth repeated visits, especially for a romantic dinner out or special occassion. But hey, you can go just because too.Special Features:

Somewhat pricey but most definitely worth it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent meal...will come backBillDined on 2/15/2014This was our first visit. We were visiting the triad area and discovered Marisol reviewing Open Table reviews. The reviews were both positive, and accurate. My wife had a delicious salmon and I had the rabbit special, and both we're very tasty. Excellent salads and good desert topped off an exceptional dinner. I would expect marisol to always be above average and occasionally great! Plan to find out!Special Features:
- A High End RestaurantCarolDined on 2/1/2014Excellent food and service. The food is very fresh and the menu changes daily. The menu was given orally, but, except for the daily appetizer specials, a written menu was available. I thought the prices were high but they were reasonable for the quality of the food. Alcoholic beverages and wine were good but over-priced. The waiter was knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. He was there when we needed him, but not intrusive. I highly recommend this restaurant for a special occasion or the occasional treat. Be prepared for the cost and then just enjoy the meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pricey but worth it!carrie61Dined on 1/31/2014I was visiting from out of town, but was told of this restaurant by a local. Everything was delicious, from the escargot appetizer, to the organic salad, and the trout was in a wonderful garlic butter sauce. Yum. We were too full for dessert. The prices are very high for this area, but I think reflect the quality of the food here. I would definitely go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fantastic Food!THolderDined on 1/3/2014I had not had the pleasure of dining at Marisol in a number of years so was delighted to find it was the same outstanding experience as before.

He had the filet and I had the rabbit and both were excellent as was the wine which was recommended by our server. Our server was amazing! She was friendly and knowledgable. She had great suggestions for each course and like I said the wine was her suggestion as well. The place doesn't look super fancy but I didn't mind and frankly with food (and service) like that I don't really care what the place looks like. The only bad thing I can say is that my stomach is too small. Everything sounded so good I wanted a little bit of everything! Will definitely be going back.Special Features:

It is the exact solution I had been looking for and ticked all the boxes. Support has been amazingly helpful in assisting me to integrate EasyBlog into my site. They have definitely stepped outside of their support scope in delivering minor hacks to my code in order to achieve customisations that I required. I have purchased many Joomla extensions in the past and Stackideas support has exceeded my expectations in every way, with sometimes receiving answers within 5 minutes. Their unreal support also led me to purchase their product 'EasyDiscuss' over another Component I was looking at. Special thanks to Mark, Terence and Sam for their assistance and prompt response time.

Be sure to listen to this interview if you take DHA/Omega 3 supplements or are considering doing so. Also read Dr. Fuhrman's description below of the dangerous trial-and-error method of discovering supplements thought to be helpful can turn out to be quite harmful.
The talk is below is a link to a recent 11-minute interview with the lead researcher on the new DHA study that showed those with higher blood levels of DHA had a whopping 70% higher risk of aggressive prostate cancer.
This fellow has been at this research for 25 years. If you are taking or considering DHA supplements, from fish oil or the vegan kind, you should definitely take note. It appears that excess DHA above what you consume may crowd out other nutrients and set the stage for serious, lethal disease. Here is the interview:
The interview has some bad news not only for taking Omega 3 pills, but for a variety of other supplements. Bottom line: supplement at your own risk, and the risk is considerable.
You should also check out this letter from some of the biggest hitters in Cancer Prevention, published in the British Journal of Nutrition, late last year. In it, the researchers very seriously call into question the idea of supplementing with these DHA/EPA fish oil type supplements, and that increasing food or supplements that raise blood levels of DHA can not be seen as uniformly safe -- there are risks to trying to raise your DHA levels. See:
I also want to bring attention to an interesting piece by Dr. Joel Fuhrman about the hazards of supplements and how theories about supplements may sound reasonable at first -- but often they turn out to be wrong and have deadly consequences for those who took the supplements.
Disclaimer: As a vegan for 18 years and veg for 23, I personally only take B-12 and otherwise stay away from the supplement aisle.
In the excerpt below from his site, Dr. Fhurman talks about beta-cartone (Vitamin A). The story he tells is a story which is increasingly showing up for a number of other vitamins and supplements. Something that may be found to be low in the blood of unhealthy people -- when you try to raise that level in a healthy person with a pill, generally it doesn't promote health but in more and more cases it can actually promote cancer the subject would not otherwise have gotten if they hadn't taken the pills.
Quoting from Dr. Fuhrman:
"Why did researchers think that beta-carotene (Vitamin A) had such a powerful anti-cancer effect? They had found that populations with high levels of beta-carotene in their bloodstream had exceedingly low rates of cancer. Recently, it was discovered that the reason these people were protected against cancer was because of hundreds of carotenoids and phytochemicals in the fruits and vegetables they were consuming. It wasn't that beta-carotene alone was responsible for the benefit; it was merely that it had served as a flag or marker for those populations with a high fruit and vegetable intake. Unfortunately, many scientists confused the flag for the ship.
"In Finnish trials, those using beta-carotene supplements failed to prevent lung cancer, and there was actually an increase in cancer in those who took the supplement. 2 This study was halted when the physician researchers discovered the death rate from lung cancer was 28 percent higher among participants who had taken the high amounts of beta-carotene and vitamin A. Furthermore, the death rate from heart disease was 17 percent higher in those who had taken the supplements compared to those just given a placebo. 3 Another recent study showed similar results, correlating beta-carotene supplementation with an increased occurrence of prostate cancer.
"As a result of these European studies, as well as similar studies conducted here in the United States, 4 articles in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 5 the Lancet, 6 and the New England Journal of Medicine all advise people to stop taking beta-carotene supplements.
"How have supplement manufacturers responded? As a result of these studies, I expected many manufacturers to drop beta-carotene from their vitamins and substitute plant-derived carotenoids, but it never happened."
- - - end of excerpt from http://www.diseaseproof.com/archives/supplements-dr-fuhrman-discusses-vitamins-and-supplements.html
This is the same progression for recent studies on DHA/omega 3. The most common form is from fish oil, which experts are now advising people to avoid or minimize. But just like Vitamin A, sellers of DHA pills show no signs of slowing down or dropping a potentially problematic substance. Some vegan supplement sellers say it is probably the fish origin, and not the higher DHA levels, that is causing the cancer. But there is currently no research to back that up, so you have to take it on faith.
If you are vegan and believe you have "low" DHA/omega 3 levels, are you actually at any increased risk of disease? Studies of people eating the SAD with low DHA levels may have increased risks of some chronic illnesses if they have low DHA. But what about people who have switched to a plant-based diet?
Well actually this question was looked at in a study in 2009:
A review of "DHA status in vegetarians" noted that "Dietary analyses show that vegan diets are devoid of DHA and vegetarian diets that included dairy food and eggs only provide about 0.02 g DHA/d." It went through all of the presumptive problems in bioconversion, and the resulting low levels of DHA observed in body fluids of average veg(etari)ans, but still concluded that: "There is no evidence of adverse effects on health or cognitive function with lower DHA intake in vegetarians. " It also stated, "In the absence of convincing evidence for the deleterious effects resulting from the lack of DHA from the diet of vegetarians, it must be concluded that needs for omega-3 fatty acids can be met by dietary ALA. "
Sanders TA. DHA status of vegetarians. Prostaglandins Leukot Essent Fatty Acids. 2009 Aug-Sep;81(2-3):137-41. Epub 2009 Jun 4. Review. PubMed PMID: 19500961.
Most important, there have been zero studies showing that supplementing with DHA -- whether from fish oil or vegan sources -- confers any actual health benefit, or that raising your blood levels of DHA through supplementation does anything actually health-promoting. Again, I am talking about research, not hyperbole, puffery or conjecture.
So if there's no proven benefit, but it is shown an elevated DHA may seriously increase your cancer risk, why would anyone do it?
Perhaps a low DHA level in people eating a SAD is simply a flag for something bigger, as Dr. Fuhrman noted a low beta-cartone level turned out to be. More likely, if you are eating a healthy diet like Fuhrman and McDougall teach, you simply don't need to obsess about your omega-3's to the point of taking expensive supplements. To repeat: the study above notes that expected low levels of omega-3's in the blood of vegetarians and vegans didn't actually translate to any health problems in the real world.
In any event, all of this is probably why experts like Neal Barnard MD (expert on Alzheimer's), John McDougall MD, Caldwell Esselstyn MD, Jeff Novick MS RD and others are opposed to DHA pills and many other supplements. Don't be scaremongered into doing something potentially risky, without at least some research to back up potential benefits against known risks of any pills you may take.

Thanks for sharing this, makes me worried when people pour pills down their throat & think all will be well. Not only can they hurt them, they are wasting alot of money, that could be better spend on fresh organic produce.
You quote Dr. Fuhrman, but he not only sells vitamin pills, he also sells DHA.
I sometimes are so amused how unaware (or don't care) people are about these conflicts.
I can't see how to delete my comment. On reflection I think it may be mean spirited.
Though studies may be inconsistent, the weight of the evidence still supports that DHA/EPA supplements are safe and can be helpful for some people. There have a number of articles written in response to this study and they are highly critical and disagree with its conclusion. I list a few of these articles at the end of this post. A few points;
• No subjects in the study were taking DHA/EPA supplements. It is irresponsible to draw a conclusion that taking DHA/EPA supplements increases the risk of prostate cancer by 70%.
• Correlation is not causation. People with infections have elevated white blood cell counts, that does not mean white blood cells cause infection. Researchers do not know why DHA levels were higher.
• Some feel the higher DHA level was not significant, 3.01% for those with cancer versus 2.91% in cancer free subjects. Vegan diets typically do not have any DHA and vegans tend to have DHA levels at about 1%.
• Plant-based omega-3's are ALA, which can be converted to DHA. The efficiency of the conversion can vary from person to person. McDougall feels tough inefficient, the conversion is adequate and that no ill effects have been noted from low DHA. However, Dr. Furhman disagrees. He has observed cases (Herbert Shelton for one) where people with a predisposition can develop Parkinson's in later years due to low DHA. http://www.drfuhrman.com/library/lack_of_DHA_linked_to_Parkinsons.aspx
• According to Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docosahexaenoic_acid DHA deficiency likely plays a role in decline of mental function in healthy adults, which is indicated in a study from 2010 conducted at 19 U.S. clinical sites on 485 subjects aged 55 and older who met criteria for age-associated memory impairment. The study found algal DHA taken for six months decreased heart rate and improved memory and learning in healthy, older adults with mild memory complaints.
• Vegetarians would be well advised to insure their DHA blood levels are adequate. DHA, available in algae-derived oils or capsules, has been shown to increase DHA levels.
• This vegsource article uses a photo of the Spectrum algae-derived DHA supplements which is totally misleading. The study has nothing to do with DHA supplements!
• A few of the many rebuttals to this study;
http://www.care2.com/greenliving/does-fish-oil-really-boost-prostate-cancer.html https://www.drfuhrman.com/library/omega3_cancer_risk.aspx
Read down to the part about DHA, Parkinsons, Shelton and so forth, then try to use more credible sources:

- Stick to lunchChrisVIPDined on 11/22/2014I had been there for lunch a few weeks before and was very impressed. Dinner was less impressive. Our cocktails took a long time to come. My fish tacos were tepid. I probably will not be back for dinner, but I'll come back for lunch.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I've been missing out...OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 11/21/2014Lived in Baltimore city almost ten years and made the mistake of not coming here sooner. "Great" is the only way to describe it... food, service, ambience, setup. Sasha's put them all together and I looked forward to coming back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- No meat neededcrutchfieldnefferdorfVIPDined on 11/15/2014I found it quite maddening as a person who does not eat red meat or pork, that two dishes, Shrimp and Grits and a chicken dish added either meat or pork to it. I requested the grits without the sausage and was told it was part of tge dish, and could not order it without it? Why add pork to a seafood dish? I decided on the crabcake sliders, of course after checking the menu to make sure there was no secret pork chop center.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great date nightOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/14/2014We enjoyed a lovely date night here over the weekend. Have been here 4-5 times before and this time delivered just as all others. Service was excellent, nice beer and wine selection. The atmosphere and delicious food is why we continue to go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Quiet nightBabaVIPDined on 11/12/2014Since there weren't a lot of people there, our waitress was serving double duty as maitred' and seemed a little put out either because of this or something else. Didn't make our experience very pleasant.
- Friday nightDaveVIPDined on 11/7/2014Nothing to write home about, food was just okay, cheese board was basic, duck dumplings were cold and fish tacos were bland. Expected more based on other reviews, we won't be back.
- Happy Beets/Sad RockfishHASEaterVIPDined on 11/4/2014Stopped by for a late night meal and started off on the right foot with a delicious roasted beet salad with delicious goat cheese and tasty blueberry dressing. The rock fish entrée however was fairly tasteless, and the accompanying carrots and fennel did little to enhance the dish. And if you are going to serve the fish skin side up, make sure the skin is crispy! Still, it was an enjoyable dinner, and the service was fine.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Really liked itOtterVIPDined on 10/28/2014Despite some slow service with one waitress covering the floor on a relatively slow Tuesday night, we really liked this place on our first visit. Comfortable, interesting décor, creative cocktails, good food. Just had a good vibe and we will definitely go back.Special Features:
- JustMaryDined on 10/28/2014Service was very good considering there were three total staff to serve all guests and one of them was also bartender and chef! The crab cake sliders were excellent, however the lamb sliders were tough and dry. The grilled romaine salad was delicious and perfectly dressed. The squash bisque was rich and tasty but overburdened with goat cheese (hard to believe I'm saying that as I am a fan of goat cheese). The restaurant is very comfortable and unique without pretense. I will definitely return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- We'll be backTheWizDined on 10/22/2014We had a very nice Wednesday evening dinner at Sascha's recently. The lone waitress handled all in the dining room well (although she might have been pressed if it had been crowded). Nice wine selection, interesting menu, and very pleasant ambiance. Started with the Mental Salad, which was delicious. We enjoyed the non-traditional steak frites as well as the eggplant lasagna (although the curried tomato sauce was a little odd). There was no chocolate bread pudding, so we tried their traditional version, which was good, not too sweet, and served with very good vanilla ice cream.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Highly RecommendedOperamomDined on 10/18/2014This was a great place. Lots of interesting menu choices, everything we tried was delicious. Service was efficient and attentive without being intrusive. Great atmosphere and location. Definitely will return!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Chandelier ceiling charm clubMediatorMichaelDined on 10/17/2014James, a member of First Unitarian, recommended Sascha's as a nearby dinner spot, sent us the link, and recommended making reservations for a Friday night. We both chose seafood selections. Served to allow us time to walk back for opening of our concert, the food was delicious. Though we were older than many, there were lots of couples and the energy level was toward the happy and excited end of the range.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- deeelishDined on 10/15/2014We love Sacha's, esp. the shrimp and grits with succotash and the pastrami sliders on caraway biscuits.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pre-theatre dinnerdiner101Dined on 10/14/2014I have met friends here for dinner twice in the last month and the two experiences varied widely from one another. The first we sat at the bar and had the most attentive and informative bartender. We shared a few plates and found the fried green tomatoes and crab cakes especially satisfying. Based on the good experience, we returned for dinner in the dining room. The waitress was fine, but bordered on inattentive. She didn't offer any information on the menu or specials, and were then told the the kitchen was out of fried green tomatoes when we ordered them. If we return, we definitely will head to the bar.
- Always funJonesesDined on 10/11/2014We came here with another couple before going to the Chesapeake Shakespeare Theater at it was perfect. We've been before and as usual the food was great!Special Features:
- FoodOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/2/2014Been here twice before and food + service was great. Went back again expecting the same. Service was great and prices are fair, but food wasn't anything to brag about. Not a terrible dining experience. But there are too many better restaurants to choose from in BaltimoreSpecial Features:
- GREAT fried chickenTeMeDined on 9/30/2014I'm from the Midwest, and I was pleasantly surprised at how great their fried chicken special was when we went on a Tuesday night. We found out that they do this special on a Monday or Tuesday evening....but get there before 7:00 p.m. or they may already have run out. Nice atmosphere and great service. The desserts are super too! Hope we get back to Baltimore to eat here again.Special Features:
- Nice date nightsAutGioDined on 9/26/2014The food is delicious and the atmosphere is nice. We come here for date nights and enjoy ourselves. Also, it doesn't get loud in there like other restaurants tend to, which we like.Special Features:
- DarkMaureenVIPDined on 9/26/2014I think the owners need to pay their electric bill. :) It was too dark in the restaurant (and it was still light outside) to read the menu and I had a great deal of difficulty. We noticed that folks at other tables had mini flashlights that they were using to see the menu....wish I had known. I ordered the crabcake sliders and a house salad. I ordered the house salad because I didn't see that the sliders came with a salad (and the waitress saw no reason to let me know!) and I ened up with massive amounts of greens. Our meals were good but I will be looking to find a pocket flashlight before heading back to Sasha's again!Special Features:
- Quiet Mt. Vernon CharmMrBigVIPDined on 9/20/2014This place was a nice outting on a Saturday night, very appropriate for casual dates. Wine was good and portions were tasty and appropriate. I recommend the flank steak. Not sure how crowded this place can get during it's busy time, but "busy time" is a moving target of the Mt. Vernon area. Very quiet and peaceful when I went, which was enjoyable for the space.Special Features:
- SaschasSkerinDined on 9/11/2014Food wasnt too bad but not my favorite. Had the branzino and my girlfriend had the lamb two ways but wasnt extra ordinary.Special Features:
- It was ok!OpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 9/6/2014We had a very professional, very nice server for our dinner at Sascha's. My salad was VERY salty (not sure why? too much cheese?) and I came home actually feeling sort-of unwell! My husband felt similarly over-salted that night and the next morning. It's a nice spot and an interesting menu.
- Pleasantly surprisedRoseDined on 8/30/2014We went to Sascha's with a Groupon. After finishing our meal, we said that we would have been more than happy to pay full price! We split the fried pickles which were perfectly crisp and very tasty. My husband got the tea chicken and loved it. I got the curried eggplant "lasagna" per the waitress' recommendation which was delicious! As a vegetarian, it is a special treat to have a composed entree as opposed to a plate of vegetables and pasta/grain. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area.Special Features:
- everything on the rest week menujlhpartyof2Dined on 8/16/2014Was tasty. We had a party of three so it was a chance to try everything. Nothing disappointed. Restaurant seemed to close a bit early but aside from that there were no issues. Very good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food and service very disappointingKAGilroyDined on 8/16/2014I expected an experience fit for foodies, but was very disappointed in the quality of the food. Specifically - Shrimp and Grits: Shrimp was great, grits were bland; salmon tatake: salmon didn't taste fresh and the peanut sauce was a terrible combination with this fish. There were pink round tings on the plate that tasted rotten. The tomato feta dish was okay - just very plain in the presentation and taste - and very over priced for what you got. Overall, I expected a great meal (considering Sascha's reputation as one of the top local restauranteurs), but the taste, presentation and price of the food were all very disappointing. And, there was only one server for the entire restaurant on a Saturday night, so the service was slow.Special Features:
- Good food, better serviceEllieBDined on 8/15/2014I like Sasha's food a lot and the service is fantastic. It's pretty expensive and the portions are slightly smaller than some similar restaurants near by in the same price range. So for us, Sasha's is a once every few years place (maybe during restaurant week) but not a favorite in a city with so much great dining.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Each time is greatADECatonsvilleMDDined on 8/10/2014We live in Catonsville, in Baltimore County, and have been coming to Sascha's for many years. The menu has changed (in good ways) over the years, and each time we thoroughly enjoy ourselves.Special Features:
- Sascha's is always a hot pickOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/9/2014My friends and I look for this restaurant every Restaurant Week. It has gained popularity since we first visited them, so we try to book early. I'm love that the chef tries new things on a regualar basis, but they do keep some tried and true favs on the list. The bartender is EXCELLENT! The orange sangria was to die for! I had to recommend it to a table of other guests who were trying to decide which cocktail to try. Delish!Special Features:
- Restaurant WeekOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/8/2014My daughters and I had a girls night out for Restaurant week and wanted to try some place new to us. We all had a different choice of the menu and all the dinners where wonderful.Special Features:
- Loved this place!OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/3/2014Great food, wine, and service! First time here was for restaurant week and decided to do the wine pairing add-on. Totally worth it. The wines were spot on and the food was amazing. Recommend the shrimp and grits appetizer and steak entree. All the desserts were delicious too. Beautiful restaurant as well. Would definitely return here.Special Features:
- LindaDined on 8/2/2014Restaurant week was fab. Don't usually participate, but glad we did. Thanks so muchSpecial Features:
- If this is their best, don't botherPickyDinerVIPDined on 8/1/2014We went during "restaurant week"; they only served the prix fixe menu. Dishes ordered (4 people) were: Polenta (really salad w/polenta cubes for croutons), shrimp w/grits, short ribs, filet mignon, cioppino w/tagliatelle, salted caramel budino, carrot cupcake, chocolate 3 ways, fruit tart (called "fresh" but made with lemon curd). No bad dish, but none anything to write home about, either. 1 steak sent back (ordered medium rare, arrived quite cold inside). Cioppino full of seafood but not very flavorful. Nobody liked the potato hash served w/the steaks. Desserts ranged ok to good. Service intrusive (how many times can the waitress say "I hate to interrupt you" w/o figuring out that she should NOT be interrupting?) Room quite noisy.
- Great Find!jka1104Dined on 8/1/2014I booked a reservation because of their awesome restaurant week menu. They had so many options that I was sure everyone would be satisfied. The food, ambiance, and service were just as wonderful as I had hoped. The shrimp and grits appetizer was amazing, as were the salmon and filet entrees. I highly recommend the carrot cake for dessert. We will definitely be back!!Special Features:
- The following 651 reviews are from the Sascha's reviews archive.
- Excellent Food & ServiceSedsoDined on 6/14/2014We really enjoyed the variety and quality of the small plates. Our server did an amazing job despite some very large parties in the restaurant around the same time. The only negative was the high noise level. It's a pretty dining room but there really isn't much to absorb sound.Special Features:
- Very SurprisedLisaS186Dined on 6/7/2014My date and I were looking for something different and we decided on Sascha's. The food was very good (I wasn't a fan of my short rib sliders) and the service was outstanding. The waitress at one point came over and told me that they overcooked my chicken and without skipping a beat she said they were cooking a new one and the meal was on the house. All I can say is that is was worth the wait. We would definitely go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful ExperienceMaureenVIPDined on 6/6/2014We had a 6:00 reservation proceeding tickets to the BSO. Due to horrific traffic on the Beltway and JFX, we were 40 minutes late. The restaurant held our reservation (although they weren't busy that evening). We told our waitress we had BSO tickets and she was amazing about getting our dinners out in time. She was the consumate waitress. She was friendly, courteous, attended to ur needs but did not hover. Our food was absolutely delicious. The only negative is the grilled Caesar salad is a bit difficult to cut up, but it was dressed beautifully and was fabulous otherwise.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Wed. evening filet special!ATownDined on 6/4/2014Great filet and martini special for $18! Delicious!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Big ChangesOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 5/29/2014The menu that listed the wonderful food choices was different that advertised on opentable. There entertainment was none existence compared to what was advertised and there service was mediocre.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 5/24/2014Fied zuchini appetizer. It was a little greasy but overall it had good flavor. Burger entree. It seems challenging for most restaurants so once again i asked for medium well, and i received it well, but it was flavorful. My wife had a shrimp/mussel on linguini dish. It had good flavor but many of the noodles were not done. The carrot cake desert was pretty dry. I had my sights set on a burger that i saw on their website, however, when i got to the restaurant the menu was not the same. The server said that they had just made the menu change but didn't update their website yet. I find that to be very unprofessional. Our server and other staff was excellent. Very attentive. Overall the food was ok, but i probably won't go back.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/22/2014Delicious food and great decor. Our server was nice but didn't seem to really engage our group.Special Features:

Principles of Logic and Logic Programming
With the use and the development of computers in the beginning of the 1950's, it soon became clear that computers could be used, not only for arithmetical computation, but also for symbolic computation. Hence, the first arithmetical computation programs, and the first programs created to answer elementary questions and prove simple theorems, were written simultaneously. The basic steps towards a general method based on Logic, were accomplished in 1965 by Robinson and later by Kowalski and Colmerauer who made use of Logic directly as a Logic Programming language.
Each chapter includes solved as well as unsolved exercises provided to help the reader assimilate the corresponding topics. The solved exercises demonstrate how to work methodically, whereas the unsolved exercises aim to stimulate the reader's personal initiative. The contents of the book are self-contained; only an elementary knowledge of analysis is required. Thus, it can be used by students in every academic year, as simply reading material, or in the context of a course. It can also be used by those who utilize Logic Programming without having any particular theoretical background knowledge of Logic, or by those simply interested in Logic and its applications in Logic Programming.less

I do love the idea of traveling to Spain. There's so much color there, and vibrance and life. The food is delicious and interesting. The people offer a delightful mix of backgrounds, culture and history. There's so much to see and experience. So I do hope that I will be able to return there soon. I'd also like to see how much or how little things have changed there, ever since my last visit. After all, things are changing throughout the world. Some things are better, while others are worse. So I'd like to see how the people in that country are taking advantage of the good developments, while bracing themselves against the problematic ones.
The thing that is on my mind now though is the question of money. That's always going to be one of the important considerations for any bit of travel. You see, if I were to head back to Spain, I wouldn't want to just head back there for a few days, and more or less pop in and pop back out. In order to even get a slight sense of how that destination is coming along, I'll ideally get to stay there for more than a few days. So that takes me to the question of how to sustain a longer than usual amount of travel.
Some people suggest that I could do what some backpackers do, and look for inexpensive places to stay. That's something that I'm definitely going to research. After all, I want to be spending my money on the different experiences in that country, and not necessarily on a fancy room or comfortable bed. I think I can make do with a little bit of roughing it, if need be. I'm also trying to figure out how to make transfers of money to and from the country, as a form of safety net in case I need additional funds. I'm looking for information, for example, on the OrbitRemit Finance blog, as well as other information type blogs on the subject. The hope is that I will have the information I need, so that I can make some more realistic plans and itineraries.

The Holywood man blazed a trail to the top of the leaderboard as he took advantage of the warm conditions and mild wind at a receptive Hoylake links on Thursday.
McIlroy, who began as one of the favourites, lived up to his billing with some fantastic approach play giving him plenty of opportunities for low-scoring.
The 25-year-old former world number one carded a birdie on the second hole before picking up a further two shots at five and six to reach the turn at three under.
More birdies were to follow at two of the par fives - the 10th and 16th - and the 447-yard 12th, as McIlroy edged one stroke ahead of Italian Matteo Manassero.
He finished with pars on the final two holes to complete his round without any dropped shots, putting him out in front on six under and very much in contention for a first Open title.
However all eyes will be on how McIlroy follows up on Friday as he seeks to cure a second-day syndrome which has seen his PGA Tour-leading first-round scoring average of just under 68 consumed by a second-round average almost five shots worse.
It's another great start and I'm looking forward to getting back out there tomorrow.Rory McIlroy
It's another great start and I'm looking forward to getting back out there tomorrow.
Rory McIlroy
The Co Down golfer said he's looking forward to following up a strong round but may well find himself having to cope with a change in the weather as an afternoon starter.
McIlroy said: "Any time you shoot 66 at the Open Championship, you're going to be pleased.
"We had perfect scoring conditions out there this morning. There wasn't much wind early on and there were plenty of opportunities to make birdies and I was able to take a few of them.
"Whenever I go out and play on Thursdays there's not really many expectations. You're going out there and you're trying to find a rhythm and you're just trying to play your way into the round.
"When you go back out on Friday after a good score you know what you can do, so you're going out with some expectations compared to Thursday. I think I've just got to approach it like that, and start off trying to hit solid shots the first few holes and play my way into the round, just like I did today."
Shane Lowry is also in contention after he came in with a four under 68.
Meanwhile a rusty Tiger Woods recovered well after dropping two shots on the first two holes as he put in a brilliant back nine, in what is only his second event since a back operation in March.
The 14-time major winner closed with five birdies and one bogey for a -3 round of 69.
Woods said: "I'm getting stronger, I'm getting faster, I'm getting more explosive. The ball is starting to travel again and those are all positive things."
Northern Ireland golfers Graeme McDowell and Darren Clark were on two under and par respectively, while Michael Hoey was three over.

Hallelujah Moment from Bok Chitto: A Family
by Rev. Jon Walters and Jodi L. Cataldo
April 17, 2009
"Would you be able to help us with some gas?" asked a young Choctaw woman. "My mother has terminal cancer and we need gasoline so we can make several medical appointments over the next week." She and her family had arrived for her mother's appointment at Choctaw Health Services (next door to our complex) and decided to seek help. The mother had been referred to the university medical complex in Jackson, 75 miles away.
Thank God for the Choctaw Mission here in Mississippi. It is a constant reminder of the ministry of The United Methodist Church with Native American people who continue to be marginalized in their own land. The UMC invites attention to this reality and provides the opportunity to respond to the particular needs of the Native American community.
When I asked the young woman if they needed anything else, she began to cry. Finally through her tears she softly responded, "No one else has offered to help us at all, and we were afraid to ask for anything else. We are very hungry."
My wife and I went to Wendy's for some sandwiches for the woman and her children as they waited for her mother to complete a medical examination. When we returned with a big bag of "dollar menu" items, it seemed obvious they didn't think we would return with food. The young woman was overwhelmed and speechless. We all began to weep in appreciation for the food provided, and in anticipation of the deep sadness of the days to come for this family. Joined together in this surprising moment, we knew that we were all little children of God, a family--truly a hallelujah moment--for Native Americans who are often overlooked.
During the 1800s, most of the Choctaw people were forced to leave their land and relocate to Oklahoma. Some remained, however. Methodists have been in ministry with this band of Choctaws since 1827. The Mississippi United Methodist Choctaw Mission in Bok Chitto serves three Native American congregations and operates a community center. Rev. Jon Walters serves as the executive director of the mission.
Ways to Support this Ministry
You can support the ministry of the Mississippi Choctaw United Methodist Mission by sharing your gifts through The Advance or by designated giving through your local church:

Auto Restoration Rotisseries
If you are like most people, doing an actual frame off restoration of your car is just not possible without moving to a house with a larger garage. Luckily, these days you can mount your project to a rotisserie and work on all sides on it in little more than the space of a 1 car garage.
Eastwood carries a rotisserie for just about any car you are likely to be working on. Plus we have dedicated stands on wheels to easily move around bodies, body parts and other large sub-assemblies. And all the accessories you may ever need too.
