Sep 10, 2013Wonderful work by the duo. Another dramatic turn of sound, taking them away from the 80's synthpop of Head First to this new sounds. Some say it is like a fusion of Felt Mountain and Seventh Tree, but I am not comfortable with that comparison. The song's are not as disjointed as Felt Mountain, nor as lush as Seventh Tree. They are menacingly sung haunting listens filled with character, haunting and beautiful.… Collapse
Jun 3, 2014this is by far the most beautiful piece of music i've ever heard.
breathtaking from the first time, evolving and maturing from spin to spin.
this album is, ladies and gentlemen, as fine as music can get.
Sep 10, 2013The formula for the new Goldfrapp Album is the following: FELT MOUNTAIN and SEVENTH TREE had a child who is a fan of Coldplay's PARACHUTES, and while the womb, Orchestral Music was playing. The Results are simply Magnificent. After their 80 's influenced HEADS FIRST, it is good to hear the duo has returned to what they do best: Hypnotic Electronic Ambient Music.
Oct 10, 2013Goldfrapp's latest album is a flash back to the past. Gone are the catchy, dance-infused choruses of old classics such as "Ooh La La", "Strict Machine" and "Rocket, the stripped-down, simplistic feel of the songs being reminiscent of their debut album Felt Mountain; and in my opinion, it's the best album they've released since then.
'Jo' starts the album off well, with it's pleasantly repetitive refrains sticking in the mind long after listening. 'Annabel,' like most of the tracks presented here, is infused throughout by a haunting sense of melancholy and sadness. Then there's 'Drew'. Radio stations seem to think of 'Drew' as the first single from the album, but I'm not so sure it is there's been no separate release other than the music video which was put on the internet. Still, it's one of the most striking songs on the album, classic Goldfrapp and just a little bit brilliant. 'Ulla' and 'Alvar' then follow, both nice enough songs in their own right but neither stand out enough at me that I can yet tell them apart. Track 6, 'Thea', is one of my favourites on the album, the only one with an audible beat and synth, a hark back to their previous album. I imagine that had they had more time on 'Head First', as they have openly admitted they needed, we would have had more songs like this. 'Simone' is next, which again is a nice enough song but it just feels a little bit too much like more of the same. 'Stranger' (the only song on the album which isn't a name) is proper, Felt Mountain era Goldfrapp. It's a great song. There's even some whistling. What more could you want? Then follows 'Laurel' which, like many of the other songs, has a haunting melody, and shows that Alison is still at her peak vocally remarkably for a woman of 47.
The album ends with 'Clay', a song so incredibly moving that it doesn't just make up for the sameyness of some of the other songs, it positively negates it. Astonishingly beautiful, particularly when you learn what the inspiration for the song was. I am being honest here when I say that this is possibly the best song ever to come from Alison and Will.
As a whole, whilst the album may at first to some appear to be a collection of similar sounding tunes, each one holds its own, and I can imagine that each will be the favourite of someone out there; which is something I have never said about a Goldfrapp album in the past. Unlike their previous releases, there's no weak link here perhaps it's just that some of the songs seem less impressive because of the incredible passion and heart of the ones surrounding them.
Despite this, it's their best album since Felt Mountain, and possibly even their best ever. A minor masterpiece.… Expand
Sep 14, 2013Ever since their 2000 debut album Felt Mountain fans have been yearning for a return to the creepy, melancholic sound that it presented. Not to say any of the albums that followed were a disappointment. Time and time again Goldfrapp prove their artistic merit and relevance through experimentation, reinvention, versatility, and overall quality music making. Whether it's the dark and gloomy trip hop and electronic cabaret of Felt Mountain, the electro glam of Black Cherry, the dance floor romp Supernature, the folktronic and ocassionally psychedelic Seventh Tree, or the shimmery 80's synthpop of Headfirst. This album is easily the closest thing to Felt Mountain, but is never just a rehash of old ideas. Tales of Us successfully marries the chilly strings and overall tone of Felt Mountain with the plucked acoustic guitars of Seventh Tree. While borrowing these sounds from those previous efforts, Tales of Us undeniably stands apart and on its own feet.
The album uniquely provides character sketches of 10 individuals starting darkly with "Jo". Circling vocals of "Run, you better run" swirl overtop a paired piano and bass subtly rocking back and forth. "Annabel" which is happily reminiscent of Felt Mountain's "Deer Stop" starts with a plucked acoustic guitar, but unlike Seventh Tree the acoustic instruments don't add warmth, and in fact the cold lullaby of "Annabel" builds by the end as the stings grow dark and loud. "Drew" also begins with cascading plucky Guitar strings, but sounds brighter and warmer than it's predecessor. Occasionally being interrupted by booms from a cello and an undercurrent of lush strings that build as the song progresses. "Ulla" and "Alvar" sound more like Seventh Tree. The former taking cues from the more ambient middle of Seventh Tree ("Road to Somewhere", "Some People"), and "Alvar" with light droning and skittish electric guitars is more reminiscent of Seventh Tree's slight psychedelia ("Little Bird", "Cologne Cerrone Houdini"). On "Thea" scattered frantic strings pop in and out of crunching footsteps, and eventually pulsating drum and bass, and a smashing snare. This is the danciest the album gets, providing the perfect synthesis of the dark forest aesthetic of the album with the bright dance floor lights of their past music. "Simone" is a dark lamenting song that drifts through a haunting atmospheric melody and builds with some slight percussion and strings. Amazingly mysterious and beautiful, the film noir "Stanger" sounds like the beautiful child of Felt Mountain's "Lovely Head" and "Pilots" complete with a lonesome whistling refrain and cinematic strings. "Laurel" mixes the melancholic harpsichord and dark strings of Felt Mountain with the contemplative piano of mid section Seventh Tree beautifully, with brooding, lamenting vocals. "Clay" ends the album on a hopeful more uplifting note. Soaring vocals rise over fast, bright, fluttering strings with a slight synth undercurrent.
This album is definitely harkens back to the sound of Felt Mountain, but stands separately as its own body of work worthy of being recognized for its own accomplishments. Despite their changes in style there's always something about their music that always feels Goldfrapp. Their evocative lyrics, and the cinematic quality of their music, are forever present on all their albums to date. This album is a masterpiece, and anyone interested in beautifully crafted, lush, and eerie music should definitely pick up this album… Expand
Sep 21, 2013Goldfrapp return with their most breathtaking and mature album to date. You won't be disappointed by these inspiring and haunting songs. Having transformed once again into an entirely new beast, Goldfrapp dominate our senses with luscious melodies and sweeping strings. "Jo", "Thea" and "Clay" are the highlights of a very strong album which will surely be shortlisted for the Mercury Prize come next year.… Expand
Jun 29, 2014I have been waiting for the next Goldfrapp album what seems like forever and I am certainly not disappointed, in fact, that would be a huge understatement. This is a highly polished mix of Felt Mountain and Supernature and it seems the two have met in perfect harmony to create Tales of Us. Alison's vocals are haunting, yet as sweet and soft as honey, mixed with the relaxing sensuous melodies throughout this will leave you feeling like you have entered a parallel universe after falling down a musical rabbit hole. Intoxicating, Indulgent and magical, Goldfrapp have captured their very essence so perfectly here - This is an album to treasure.… Expand
Jun 16, 2014Not the strongest Goldfrapp album, but still wonderfully composed and created. Though each song on the album is themed around a different person they suffer from not having enough character or individuality.
Sep 24, 2013I think this album is pretty unremarkable. As subtle as the sound is, I think it's pretty forgettable- as such I describe it as 'A Dream You're Likely to Forget' in my blog review.
Have a read (it's short), any feedback is welcome. Thanks
Sep 19, 2013This seems to be the exact opposite of 'Head First'. That is, a morose collections of vaguely pretty tracks that sound as if they're all rejects for the next Bond movie. I much prefer her when she's all soaring synthesizers. Only highlight on the whole album was 'Thea', and even that was dull. Come on Goldfrapp. Life's not that bad!
Sep 26, 2013This record made me want to kill myself. It is SO BORING. Goldfrapp can do so much better than this. Can only imagine how bad the film is gonna be. Yuck.
Jan 27, 2014This restless duo have never sounded so much like themselves, and the result is spellbinding. [Oct 2013, p.107]
Sep 30, 2013Although some of the arrangements and electronic embellishments are lavish, there are few obvious peaks and troughs apart from the epic throb of 'Thea'.
Sep 19, 2013Musically, it's their most ambitious release, with full orchestras and mysterious meditations of reality and fantasy. [No. 102, p.56]

Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it. We're not sure how that applies to the GM EV1, but we'd still like to share something from Autoline Daily, an online automotive new show with our friend John McElroy. He's been covering the business for decades now and recently found something interesting: pictures of the 1984 Chevrolet Citation IV concept, seen above.
Displayed half a decade before the first electric concept that would become the EV1 (inset), McElroy says it's now clear that the elegant, aerodynamic EV1 took a lot of styling cues from the Citation IV, which was developed in part thanks to GM's new-at-the-time Aerodynamics Laboratory. We agree with him that the spats over the rear wheels, the flush glass, and the covered headlights all bear a certain kind of similarity between the two cars. That the colors almost match is a nice coincidence. The Impact (the concept version of the EV1) looked "frumpier," McElroy says, because it wasn't as long as the Citation.
You can read a lot more about the Citation IV here and check out McElroy's thoughts in the video below. Find the Citation starting at around 3:45.

AU President Emeritus and former Dean of the Graduate School of Education Dr. David Nunan teaching a live webcam class
The Anaheim University Graduate School of Education offers a cutting-edge online Doctor of Education in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (Ed.D. in TESOL) degree program. Experience the following AU advantages:
One of the primary deciding factors for students who choose the Anaheim University Doctor of Education in TESOL is the quality of the highly esteemed faculty who teach AU students in weekly live webcam classes.
This area is broad-based. It aims to provide students with the disciplinary knowledge that forms TESOL. It addresses the linguistic, psycholinguistic, psychological and sociolinguistic foundations of language teaching. On completing the courses in this area, students will have developed a clear understanding of theories of language learning, and of the theoretical and empirical underpinnings of different language teaching approaches, instructional materials, and language testing.
This area is more practice-oriented. It examines the principles that inform the design and evaluation of courses in language teaching. It provides students with an opportunity to engage in projects directly related to TESOL and thereby to develop the skills required of leaders in the field.
This area seeks to lay the ground for students' ongoing professional development. It focuses narrowly on two key domains of professional activity in TESOL - ELT management and teacher education.
While students will have been introduced to a range of research relevant to TESOL in the other areas of the Ed.D, this area seeks to develop the knowledge and skills needed to design research studies and to collect and analyze data. It provides a platform for the students' work on their dissertation.
In addition, students will complete a dissertation (EDU 733 Dissertation) worth 12 credits
Students must pass a qualifying exam after the first year of course work (at least five courses) in order to continue in the program. A comprehensive exam must be successfully completed after all course work is done before the student may advance to the dissertation stage of the program.
The Anaheim University Graduate School of Education prides itself on pioneering the field of TESOL in the mid-1990s with the world's first Masters in TESOL program to be taught online in real time.
The AU Ed.D. in TESOL degree program allows you to study online while working full time and fulfilling your personal responsibilities. This provides you with the opportunity to apply what you learn today in the classroom tomorrow. The courses are taught 100% online, and you also have the opportunity to meet your renowned faculty and classmates from around the world at two x four-day residential sessions that are held annually in California as well as at other select locations. The residential sessions are typically held from a Thursday to a Sunday or a Saturday to Tuesday, allowing you to minimize the time you will need to be away from work.

Hello All,
I am brewing a Cooper's Real Ale extract kit (using Light and Amber DME for fermentables) tomorrow, and have a couple questions.
First, I am think about just covering my primary (6.5 gallon ale pail) with a clean towel versus the lid. I have done this with wine and got fine results, but I'm brand new to beer so I wanted to make sure. Will the krausen coming into contact with the towel be an issue? Alternatively, I could just do a blow off tube.
Second, does anyone think doing a 6 gallon kit in a 6.5 gallon primary would be an issue? I have read Cooper's yeast tends to be violent, so I was thinking about dropping the volume down to 5 gallons.
Thanks, and I appreciate any help!
go with 5 gallons, use the lid, use the blow off tube if needed.
Sounds good, thank you!
I would think even a laundered towel will have some bacteria that's harbored in the cotton fibers. Something a sanitized plastic lid ( w/ no scratches) simply wouldn't have.
But- hey the contact would be minimal - and since you've done this with wine already - it still might work for beer.
I'm new to all this beer fermentation / home brew hoo-haa myself - and I'm interested in minimizing the risk of contamination as much as possible.
Your mileage may vary!
When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. HST
I ended up going the 5 gallon, loose lid route. Beginning temps were a little cool, but it's starting to get going now I believe. I will be taking a reading tomorrow to make sure. Thanks again!
Brewing steady, but the krausen is crazy! Is it ok to punch down every so often? Never brewing beer before, I'm not sure if this will settle or if I will have to stir occasionally.
I've never bothered it once it gets going. The krausen will drop back in on its own. Just enjoy the show!
Will do, thanks!
I just bottled this last night. Wort tastes pretty good (for being wort), and as such I think I might give this a try earlier than I anticipated, maybe a month.
Chill and pop one after a week and half. Should be decently carbonated by then. No need to wait an entire month for a sample!

Shishka Leabanese Grill was established by two brothers Walid and Gus Zabib in 2011 . The Zabib family is originally from the city of Beirut in Lebanon. When they came to the United States, they found that there were only a few Middle Eastern restaurants around, but hardly any of them were really that good. Zabib's family decided to open a restaurant where you could get a good home-cooked Lebanese meal the way Mom used to make. With our complete menu, you can feast on all the old favorites. Enjoy hummus that is light, smooth, and rich with flavors of garlic and premium olive oil. A baba ghanouj that takes on a smoky flavor, labneh, and lamb prepared every which way, as well as more provocative dishes, such as lamb sausage, stuffed grape leaves, and elaborate hot vegetable combinations, prepared by an attentive kitchen.

November 23, 2014
MANAGUA, Nicaragua (AP) - Former boxing champion Alexis Arguello, considered one of the best lightweights to step in the ring, has been found dead.
Presidential spokeswoman Rosario Murillo confirmed Arguello's
death early Wednesday.
The 57-year-old Arguello was elected mayor of Managua last year. He turned pro in 1968 and won his first title by knocking out Ruben Olivares for the featherweight crown. He later captured the super featherweight and lightweight belts, becoming the sixth boxer to win titles in three weight classes.
He retired in 1995 with a record of 82-8 with 65 knockouts, and
was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 1992.
His Sandinista party's Radio Ya said coroners are conducting an
autopsy to determine the cause of death.

IBM takes quantum computing to the next level
Summary: IBM takes advantage of qubits which can potentially work on millions of computations at once - far outperforming a PC.
5 of 6Image
Here's a wider view of the Silicon chip housing a total of three qubits. The chip is back-mounted on a PC board and connects to I/O coaxial lines via wire bonds (scale: 8mm x 4mm). A larger assembly of such qubits and resonators are envisioned to be used for a scalable architecture.

Here's a magnified qubit.

IBM needs a dilution refrigerator to keep the temperature down to 15 to 20 millikelvin so that the quantum states stay very pure and helps put them into their ground states before any experiments are done. IBM keeps the qubits this cold to cut down on "thermal noise."

UN Joint Programme YEM study visit to the Netherlands
A study visit to the Netherlands has been organized in May within the scope of the "UN Joint Programme Growth with Decent Work for All: National Youth Employment Program and Pilot Implementation in Antalya."
New Horizons - 24 members of the Provincial Employment and Vocational Training Board (PEVTB) in Antalya along with 5 UN Joint Programme team members visited Amsterdam, Eindhoven and the Hague in order to enhance the capacity of the PEVTB.
As part of the study tour, first visit was paid to the General Directorate of Uitkeringsgerechtigde Volledig Werklozen (UVW), the Dutch equivalent of İŞKUR.
There, the study tour participants received information about the organisation of (regional) labour market policy in the Netherlands, structure of UWV (Werkbedrijf) and political mandates.
The representatives of institutions presented strategy, structure and character of the region. They also introduced the redesign of UVW Werkbedrijf and e-services Approach to young job seekers, and their approach disabled job seekers.
Eindhoven experience
In Eindhoven, the board members had reception with Deputy Mayor of the city of Waalre. The services, service point education and working, the employment cooperation Philips model were introduced.
The board also visited UVW Work square in Eindhoven. There, it was decided that Industrial cluster VDL Group Eindhoven would give migration management training and statistical evaluation presentations to İŞKUR in the following months.
The UN Joint Programme aims at reducing youth unemployment and increasing the participation of young women in the labour force. The target is to increase the percentage in placements of young unemployed people into decent jobs.
The UN Joint Programme started at the end of 2009 and will end at the end of 2012. It is funded by the MDG Achievement Fund entrusted to United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) by the Government of Spain, in cooperation with İŞKUR (National Employment Agency) and United Nations Organisations ILO (International Labour Organization), IOM (International Organization for Migration), FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of United Nations) and UNDP.

I lost almost 10 pounds and for the first time ever I felt like I had the appetite of a normal person. Unfortunately I also became extremely depressed! Could've just been a coincidense, but I am also very med sensitive. I had to stop it. The depression has lifted slightly but I am still in a way worse place than before I began taking it.

April 21, 2014 – Matthew Stephenson
Dear LIDS Members:
I'm writing to encourage those of you who are interested in applying to participate in the Global Anticorruption Lab that I will be running this coming academic year. There is a description in the course catalogue, but I wanted to reach out to LIDS because this class might be of particular interest to students with interests in law & development, particularly anticorruption and good governance.
The Lab course is an opportunity to do independent research on a topic or topics of your choice, in a collaborative setting that provides opportunities for feedback not only from me, but from your classmates as well. Through the Lab course, you will contribute to the Global Anticorruption Blog (www.globalanticorruptionblog.com), reaching an audience that includes leading figures at the World Bank, Transparency International, UNDP, and other leading anticorruption organizations.
This year's Lab had great representation from LIDS members, and I would love to get more LIDS members involved if possible. If you would like to learn more about this year's Lab please feel free to email current Lab member and outgoing LIDS co-President Raj Banerjee at firstname.lastname@example.com. Raj would be delighted to chat about his experience!

Wizards Training Camp Day 5: Watch Out For That Sam Cassell
At the conclusion of an afternoon session on day five of training camp, Washington Wizards assistant coach Sam Cassell cracked smiles while rebounding for John Wall, Jordan Crawford and Shelvin Mack as they performed a shooting drill. Cassell is about to begin his third season on the bench for the Wizards. Forever known for his personality, he doled out positive instruction to the young guards, sharing stories with Wall about a certain game in his playing career where he "killed it" and got the win. Cassell also proclaimed Crawford as the funniest dude he knew, the camaraderie among the trio being rather overt.
The three-time world champion with 15 NBA seasons under his belt is essential to the development of both guards. He's constantly teaching the young Wizards moves and positioning. Even though Flip Saunders had this to say after practice,:
"Sam does a good job because he has good knowledge as far as played the position. One thing that's a little bit different is that Sam played a lot different than these guys. And sometimes you have to talk to Sam because the things he wants them to do, as far as shoot mid-range shots and those type of things, that's not what their game is. Sam's speed has definitely never been close to those guys. So that's one thing we gotta watch out a little bit. But he's got a good knowledge of what to look for."
Either way, certainly the athletic can learn something from the tactics of the non-athletic. Cassell has also enjoyed past friendly battles of one-on-one with the likes of John Wall, Nick Young and JaVale McGee. Something left in the tank is sometimes best spent on education.
Cassell's strengths are his bubbly personality, ability to relate to young players and cerebral understanding of what it takes to succeed in the NBA. And that's not just from 136 playoff games and numerous big shots, but he's also played under accomplished coaches such as Rudy Tomjanovich, George Karl, Cotton Fitzsimmons, Doc Rivers and Flip Saunders. For those participating in a 'NBA Coaches Sam Cassell Played For' Jeopardy category at home: Jim Cleamons, John Calipari, Don Casey, Kevin McHale, and Mike Dunleavy.
One of my favorite recurring moments watching the Wizards from up close is when Cassell greets a player or a coach from the opposing team at half court during pre-game shoot-around. Cassell's trademark shiny bald head and demonstrative facial reactions can be seen from afar. He appears to be engaged in the funniest conversation ever. The most memorable of these encounters was him trash talking current Magic assistant coach Patrick Ewing about a game winning shot he hit on the former New York Knicks star. Cassell started recreating the shot and would not let up on the vocal reminders, even after the two had parted ways from center court.
Another memorable is Cassell's interactions with Goodman League president Miles Rawls during Wizards games. Rawls, a season ticket holder, sits directly across from the home team's bench, and his funny one liners are hard to ignore in a quiet Verizon Center, especially during dead balls. Rawls will sometimes call out Cassell by name to make a request, such "Put in Cartier [Martin], Sam!" Cassell usually responds with a big grin, which is much more amusing than grown adults wrestling over flying burritos and T-shirts.
Considering the tumultuous incidents and roster upheaval in Washington over the past two seasons, the current coaching staff has, for the most part, been given an incomplete grade. I believe this to be fair and a conventional wisdom assessment. However, this season will be key to truly evaluating the performance of Flip Saunders' staff from start to finish.
The Wizards exceeding any expectations and showing signs of real progress could coincide with increased NBA coaching opportunities for Cassell down the road. He interviewed for Houston Rockets top job last spring, but is still seen by some as too green for his own team.
Wall becoming an All Star/MVP candidate and Crawford turning into a super sub 6th man or reliable starter, along with team success, are potential scenarios that would produce strong pro-Cassell arguments for NBA GMs. He could also take some credit for Nick Young's evolution into a more dependable contributor.
Due to the unavailability of Wizards assistant coaches for interviews, I could not get comment from Cassell on his coaching methods, but I asked Wall, Crawford, and Mack, and Saunders about his influence on the program, as seen in the video above. (Honestly, I have just been dying to know more about the Cassell dance and have him hook me up with some golf tips.)

- SurprisedElizDined on 10/11/2014I have been to this restaurant several times, the only problem I ever had was some of the wait staff was not the best, but the food has always been good. Well our waiter on Saturday was a bit arrogant, but good until he took the check from us & we said thank you, it was over 20%, he disregarded us. My friend & I had left over food, when I got home the next day I realized that two shrimp were missing from my Shrimp Sol. The menu said Jumbo shrimp, they were large at best for $24.50. I called the rest. to let them know, the manager Peter said to let him know when I dine there again. At $75. for the meal we had, maybe take out but I would definitely think twice about dine in. He should have offered me something to keep my bus.Special Features:

The greeter was less than friendly when I told him we had made a reservation online requesting a window table. He seemed annoyed and led us to a non-window table. We noticed the two two-place window tables were occupied. No problem; some you win, some you lose. The greeter was either distracted or didn't want to listen. Either way, if you're going to greet your customers at least try to be a little friendly. Getting the brush off like we did left a sour feeling and made us wonder why we'd want to go back. The young waiter did help make up for the initial frost with his friendly, helpful, cheerful attitude.Special Features:

- Great restaurant, but.....BubblesVIPDined on 8/1/2014Really enjoyed eating here, but it was not what I would call leisurely dining. The meal was way too rushed and when we mentioned it to the waiter he argued with us instead of just apologizing. If he had kept his just kept his mouth shut the whole incident would have been forgotten.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The following 71 reviews are from the Greek Taverna - Edgewater reviews archive.
- Amazing Grilled SeafoodaldodefrancoDined on 7/13/2014I never had in US a grilled fish that taste like fish... Usually fish in America taste like chicken ... Or worst like nothing. Finally I found a place where I can eat great fish feeling like in Greece or in Italy .... Amazing food, amazing appertisers, octopus was amazing as we'll the grilled squid.... The king/queen was the Dorada that my wife ordered was perfect grilled whole fish. Keep going like this. Service was ok the waitress was "tired" or not well trained... But with this food I did not care at all.Special Features:

- thoughtsfoodieVIPDined on 4/26/2014food and service were great. i appreciate how accommodating you were in adding an extra seat at our table and then adding a table. excellent customer service on that piece. we were charged for refills on iced teas-not told that would happen-and wasn't expected until I saw the bill. I have eaten here 4 times in the past 3 weeks and not one time was I charged for refills. as a matter of fact, one time the waiter brought out a pitcher to refill the glasses - no charge. so when I asked this time as to why the charge, I was told it was the policy. I should have been told that was the practice when I asked for a refill. when i questioned it on the bill, I was told that was the policy. Unfortunately, it was not my previous experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- pmccroskpmccroskVIPDined on 4/25/2014large Greek restaurant in upscale setting over Hudson River. Food is authentic and well prepared but not innovative. Service is efficient but indifferent. Overall impression, was of a large Greek cafeteria.

- Take Me To The River - Greek StyleHMJFINEDINEDined on 3/29/2014This great Greek restaurant adjacent to the Hudson River serves up outstanding dishes, great service, and a lively atmosphere. We were a party of six that ordered the octopus salad, seafood salad, mussels, and the grilled shrimp. The four dishes were plenty for six people. The fish entrees were also great. We ordered Lavraki and Dorado and both were outstanding. Some of the others ordered the same. We brought our own wine to round out the evening. We will certainly go back and will certainly recommend this restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- We had a great dinner withBinkieDined on 3/15/2014We had a great dinner with friends the other evening. Service was friendly and prompt. We shared a delicious appetizer of middle eastern dishes which were appealing. The fish is always a good dish with many choices and preparations. The salmon wrapped in grape leaves was one of our favorites. There are many choices for those who wish to have steak. and lamb. the greek custard dessert was outstanding.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Graet food priced reasonably!RaphyDined on 3/8/2014We've been coming to this place many times over the past 5 years. The food is tasty, fresh and the service is great! I definitely recommend the salmon wrapped in vine leaves. Too bad they don't have the Greek Yogurt...Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Greek diningSharonDined on 2/22/2014Food fresh & delicious. Wine selection small but inexpensive. Staff couldn't be friendlier or more knowledgeable about the dishes. Come here regularly.I would recommend this to a friend.
- As many times as we eat here,ihatenicknamesVIPDined on 2/22/2014As many times as we eat here, you'd think we might get bored--but not so. They are always surprising us with new things to try. Tonight it was a crab-cakes special. They were fabulous. Added to our regular favorites: tsatiki, horiatiki salad, lamb chops, and many others, we always have a fabulous meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- One of our FAVES!WWCitizenVIPDined on 2/19/2014This is one of our favorite places to go for dinner and we order deliver from them as well. Great food, fantastic service, feels like home. Anna is typically our server and she's wonderfully attentive, welcoming, and helpful. She makes the experience of eating there all that more special. The grill is fantastic. The fish selections are always very good (bronzinos, bass, lavraki, etc.). The dolmadakias are magic as are all the spreads - beyond just hummus. You simply must try the grilled seafood appetizer platter for two. It's divine. Great place and highly recommended! (DO.NOT.FORGET to try the cheesecake baklava - amazing!).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great FoodbartlovesmusselsDined on 2/14/2014Restaurant had really good food. Kitchen is open which was a nice touch. It is the type of place to bring family and friends, setting isn't romantic. Some things I didn't like about the place are the small amount of distance between tables and noise. If there are people sitting at the table right next to you you can hear their conversation easily. I give the restaurant a 9/10 because the food was really great and service was good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I've said it before and I'llihatenicknamesVIPDined on 1/26/2014I've said it before and I'll say it again: Greek Taverna is our go-to restaurant in Edgewater This time we shared the lamb shank special with orzo and feta which was FABULOUS! The salads are the freshest--our favorite is horiatiki. And on a cold day, Greek-style chicken soup cannot be beat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- FANTASTIC as Always!vjdantoneVIPDined on 1/19/2014Was in NJ visiting daughter and we always make it a point to stop at the Greek Taverna before leaving - the food is SO good and wonderfully prepared! Get the mussels appetizer - it could easily be a meal and more than enough for 3 people to share - BUT who would WANT to! You can't go wrong with any of their home made desserts - and a word of advice - eat slowly so you'll have room. Yes, the Greek Taverna is that great and I can't wait to get back there.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

I had the shrimp on skewers which we're flavored well. My husband thought his chicken on skewers could have been more flavorful. All in all, the food was good & we would go there again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

For our table of 7 we had lamb chops, pork chops, a cowboy steak and lavraki(grilled fish). And of course the fabulous Greek fries. It was all delicious as it always is. The service is always friendly; we feel very at-home here. It is our go-to restaurant.Special Features:

- Spontaneous MondayWWCitizenVIPDined on 8/12/2013We rarely go here on a Monday, but we had the place to ourselves! (No one goes out to dinner on Monday night in this area much). Great service, but we didn't have our regular server, Anna, who is amazing. The seafood platter was superb as usual and the whole grilled snapper was HUGE and very tasty! It was my birthday dinner and the waiter served me a surprise Baklava - delicious! HIGHLY recommend this place.Special Features:
- As always, the food and serviceihatenicknamesVIPDined on 8/10/2013As always, the food and service at this restaurant are great. The salads are always fresh. We are always given clean plates after each course which is nice so that you don't have to mix your tsatsiki with your cowboy steak! The menu is diverse enough that we are still trying new things after these many years. This time it was the grilled calamari--grilled to perfection and plentiful. I look forward to next time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- service faultdavidVIPDined on 8/4/2013how is that prepared?, I asked. the very pleasant young server did not know what the question meant. after explanation, she responded, "I think it's grilled." I informed her that lamb shanks cannot be grilled and asked her to find out more information on the dish. she returned and shared that they were, in fact, "stewed" and served with oysters. incredulous, I pressed her to discover that oysters, not orzo, was the word for the little Greek pasta. live and learn... our friend wanted to order what I had eaten on our last visit, so I asked whether a certain lamb dish was served in a crock. "I don't know, " the server responded.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Simply Perfect!RaphyDined on 7/29/2013We've been visiting this restaurant quite frequently over the past 2 years as we love Greek food... The food is consistently good- Fresh and tasty! The place is not fancy but definitely nice atmosphere and young crowd... It's Bring Your Own wine...- which is great... Portions are large so I definitely recommend having 1 starter and 1 main course for... I recommend the salmon wrapped in grape leaves...Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Coldplay finished up their gig at the Enmore Theatre in Sydney tonight with a special treat, sharing the Sky Full Of Stars video which was shot with the help of fans a few hundred metres from the venue just a couple of days ago.
Locals will recognise several familiar locations as frontman Chris Martin marches down the busy Newtown thoroughfare in his one-man band get-up. He attracts more and more followers as he continues down the strip, like an indie pop Pied Piper leading his pseudo boho rats.
He eventually meets up with his band mates at the Martin Luther King "I have a dream" mural and leads the whole mob off the main drag, up past the cop shop and lands at iconic local building the Hub for a crowd singalong and, presumably, a few cold ones.
Coldplay caused quite a stir on Tuesday as news of the impending shoot spread, and the band put the call out for fans to participate.
It certainly seems like they got a healthy turn-out in the end and, if social media is anything to go by, tonight's show at the Enmore attracted more than a few familiar faces.
One of those was none other than Kylie Minogue, who jumped on stage to perform her hit Can't Get You Out Of My Head with the band, as well as a rendition of her Nick Cave duet Where The Wild Roses Grow. And I'm stuck at home writing about it.
The Enmore Theatre gig was the one and only show available to the public on Coldplay's Australian promotional tour. They're here plugging latest record Ghost Stories. Check out the new clip below.
Watch: Coldplay – A Sky Full Of Stars
So @kylieminogue just got up with @coldplay at the Enmore and did Where the Wild Roses Grow and Can't Get You Out of My Head

This week on LeAnn & Eddie, we learn why LeAnn was a star in the first place, because frankly most people may not even remember that she is one.
Straight out of Nashville, Tennessee, LeAnn was catapulted to country fame as a teenager. Superstardom is more like it. She is a huge, huge name.
On this episode of the worst show in the history of the world, LeAnn is in town to promote her new album and spend some time with her estranged dad.
Eddie, meanwhile, struggles to find ways to justify his name in the title.
LeAnn and her father, Wilbur, have made progress in their relationship, but there's work to be done. They still can't talk about certain things, she admits.
This is a man she once accused of stealing money from her, so there's a lot of history there. History and genuine tension that permeates this episode.
When LeAnn voices nervousness over her dad watching her Grand Ole Opry performance, the mixed feelings she harbors become all the more clear.

Review this game
Dec 4, 2013Huge monsters and aliens, destructible levels tons of variant of weapons to unlock. Also the poor graphics and repetitive simple game play does not detract from the fact this is still however tons of fun with a massive 60+ levels to beat, SP or CO-OP
Aug 23, 2013An early 360 game, it looks more like a dreamcast game and some of the control choices make me wonder if it was originally intended for that platform. The voice acting is catastrophically bad and the story makes little sense. The controls are a baffling when it comes to the vehicles and the weapons and unlocks are just on this side of random.
And the amount of belief you need to suspend? Let's just say that there are points where your single guy in body armor is being hit by a hail of shots from a dozen 50 foot robots with plasma cannons while you are shooting at them with a shotgun.
The maps are bland and reused repeatedly, the creatures and enemies have an AI that belongs in Galaga...
....And the game is entirely more fun than it deserves to be. There is a reason why this game can be found used for $60 in some areas. It is seriously fun, in every way. Some of the best moments are having to sprint backwards while you are throwing nuclear hand grenades that will kill you if you weren't sprinting backwards.… Expand
Mar 23, 2012Ok, ok, ok, Earth Force Defense can be repetitive, but is funny and entertaining, is an amazing game, with the sequel (Insect Armageddon) can be better. But this game is good.
May 18, 2011One of the best budget titles you're likely to find. This, together with its predecessor (Ps2) are some of the most fun co-op third-person shooting action you'll experience anywhere.
Do not be fooled by the game's [seemingly] low production values; it has it where it counts -- massive, ten story high monsters, screen so packed with enemies the 360 chungs, scores of weapons to mix and match, lol-worthy dialogue and set pieces, almost limitless replay value due to the the 'farming' mechanic the game engenders and the ridiculous difficulty the game can be set to... This game arguably yields more bang for your buck than any other game relative to price out there.
Unless you're outright not into third-person shooters or Japanese style Godzilla battles / Mars Attacks type alien invasion themes or immeasurably fun couch co-op play (*split screen only; no online mutiplayer), then EDF for the 360 is a must have.
E.D.F. 2017 is one of the few games of this generation that will be worth coming back for in years to come... and that's saying something given how throw-away most of the titles are in this era of 'junk food gaming'.
(NB: The game would get a perfect score from me other than the fact the 'Pale Wing' class from the Ps2 predecessor was strangely omitted for this iteration. So 9 it is).… Expand
It's a unique, well-realized action game that's like nothing else on the 360. If "EDF2" didn't exist, we'd like it even more.
A corny, geeky dream come true that's destined to be an underground classic.
It doesn't hold a candle to some of the more technically savvy games on Xbox 360 and that may be more than ample reason to give this one a pass depending upon your tastes. For good mindless shooting, this game delivers.

Fed 100 winner Noel Dickover has joined the U.S. Institute of Peace.
Noel Dickover, the State Department's Office of eDiplomacy guru for the past three years and one of the coordinators largely responsible for its successful TechCamps program, left last week to begin a new position with the U.S. Institute of Peace (USIP). He started in the new position on July 29.
Dickover announced the move on Twitter, saying he had a "terrific 3 years" at State and that he was looking forward to working on USIP's Peace-Tech Lab. He started at the State Department on July 1, 2010.
Dickover told FCW his work at USIP will focus on using low-cost technology like crowdsourcing to build peace and help stabilize social culture, particularly in developing countries.
"It gives me an opportunity to build technology for social good ecosystems in developing countries," Dickover said.
USIP is an independent, federally funded nonpartisan institution established by Congress to help manage international conflicts without violence.
Dickover is highly respected for his work at the Office of eDiplomacy, earning a Fed 100 award in 2012 for his efforts training grassroots organizations all over the world and increasing their digital capacity through interactive TechCamp meetings.
His efforts in organizing and executing TechCamps in places including Thailand, Israel, India, the Ukraine, Moldova and Zanzibar empowered nongovernmental organizations to adopt tech-savvy approaches to issues pertaining to disaster response, economy opportunity, empowering women and in some cases, democracy.
"Technologists love to be Superman," Dickover told FCW in a 2012 interview. "The TechCamp format gives them that opportunity."
State offered no insight on who might replace Dickover.

Runoffs set in race for coastal Georgia House seat
Updated On: May 21 2014 07:45:02 AM EDT
Both Republicans and Democrats will return to the polls in July 21 to decide which candidates will advance to the General Election to fill the southeast Georgia congressional seat being vacated by GOP Rep. Jack Kingston of Savannah.
State Rep. Buddy Carter of Pooler drew 36 percent of the vote and Savannah physician Bob Johnson earned 23 percent in the six-way Republican primary.
On the Democratic ballot, Realtor Amy Tavio has just under 34 percent of the vote, with retired police officer Brian Reese only 21 votes behind in the three-way contest.
The district covers southeast Georgia from the Florida line to the Savannah River. Kingston stepped aside to seek Georgia's open Senate seat.
