New York Casino Gambling Amendment, Proposal 1 (2013)
|Proposal 1
|Click here for the latest news on U.S. ballot measures
|Quick stats
|Constitutional amendment
|Article I, Section 9
|Referred by:
|New York Legislature
|On the ballot
The measure would allow casino gambling statewide. The measure would initially allow for four casinos in upstate New York, and another three in the New York City area after seven years.[1] Assemblyman J. Gary Pretlow sponsored the measure in the legislature as Assembly Bill 8068.
Text of measure
Ballot summary
The official ballot text reads as follows:[2]
|Authorizing Casino Gaming
The proposed amendment to section 9 of article 1 of the Constitution would allow the Legislature to authorize up to seven casinos in New York State for the legislated purposes of promoting job growth, increasing aid to schools, and permitting local governments to lower property taxes through revenues generated. Shall the amendment be approved? [3]
Constitutional changes
If approved, Proposal 1 would amend Article I, Section 9, subdivision 1 of the Constitution of New York to read:[4]
|No law shall be passed abridging the rights of the people peaceably to assemble and to petition the government, or any department thereof; nor shall any divorce be granted otherwise than by due judicial proceedings; except as hereinafter provided, no lottery or the sale of lottery tickets, pool-selling, book-making, or any other kind of gambling, except lotteries operated by the state and the sale of lottery tickets in connection therewith as may be authorized and prescribed by the legislature, the net proceeds of which shall be applied exclusively to or in aid or support of education in this state as the legislature may prescribe, and except pari-mutual betting on horse races as may be prescribed by the legislature and from which the state shall derive a reasonable revenue for the support of government, and except casino gambling at no more than seven facilities as authorized and prescribed by the legislature shall hereafter be authorized or allowed within this state; and the legislature shall pass appropriate laws to prevent offenses against any of the provisions of this section.
The measure was sponsored by Assemblyman Pretlow and was approved unanimously by the New York legislature in 2013.[4] Gov. Andrew Cuomo is also a major supporter of the measure and was key in the crafting of the amendment's language.[5]
Campaign controversy
Following the state's release of the measure's language, concerns have been raised over whether or not the amendment's phrasing encourages voters to approve it. Those critics include Blair Horner of the New York Public Interest Research Group, Gerald Benjamin, a political science professor at the State University of New York at New Paltz, and Stephen Quentin Shafer, chairman of the Coalition Against Gambling in New York. The New York Board of Elections has state that it merely approves language already worked out by the measure's authors, suggesting that responsibility lies elsewhere.[5]
Critics say the spin was instigated by leaders in the legislature and Governor Cuomo, Shafer said, "The deceptive wording of this amendment on the ballot and the advancement of this late entry to 'number one' position are obvious moves to misinform and bias voters," he said. "New Yorkers deserve better from our legislative leaders." Critics also point out that the property tax breaks and school aid mentioned in the ballot summary aren't actually in the amendment and sound more like advocacy. Benjamin said, "This one seems particularly heavily spun. I don't think there's anything illegal about it... it's OK, but I don't think it's good." Benjamin also added that it is possible that some group could sue over the wording, but it is unlikely. He said that an objective presentation of an issue to voters is not required by election law or the constitution.[5]
Media editorial positions
Other opinions
- The Poughkeepsie Journal published an editorial on September 16, 2013, criticizing the measure's ballot language. In reference to the positive tone of the ballot question, the editorial said, "Though such overtones are apparently legal, the state is making a mockery of fair and even government. Nowhere in this glowing assessment about casinos are concerns opponents might have about gambling addiction, about the impact on local roads, government services and schools, etc. In actuality, no one should expect to go into a voting booth and read reams of information on a referendum that cite the pros and cons of an issue. Voters should research the issue before heading into the booth. The language in this referendum is a stunning example why."[6]
Path to the ballot
- See also: Amending the New York Constitution
According to the New York Constitution, a majority vote is required in two successive sessions of the New York State Legislature in order to qualify a measure for the statewide ballot.
The New York State Senate passed the amendment on June 4, 2013, with a vote of 63 to 0.[7] The New York State Assembly passed the amendment on March 18, 2013, with a vote of 141 to 0.[4]

2 men arrested in fight over $10
Updated On: May 27 2013 03:16:31 PM EDT
Two St. Augustine men are facing charges after deputies say they got into a physical altercation with three other people over $10.
St. Johns County deputies went to a home on Avenue C near Dixie Highway about 10 p.m. Sunday to investigate a disturbance involving guns and a stick.
Deputies said 39-year-old Shawn Russell approached the home yelling he wanted his $10 and hit a 30-year-old woman in the head with a stick. They said he then hit a 25-year-old man with the stick, grabbed the third person's cellphone as that person was trying to call police for help, and ran off.
Another man, 33-year-old Marcus Russell entered the home and hit one of the victims again and then took off in his car, deputies said.
Deputies caught up with both men later and arrested them. They're facing a list of charges, including aggravated battery.

On the New York Mercantile Exchange, light sweet crude futures for delivery in December traded at USD87.27 a barrel during European morning trade, slipping 0.15%.
Trade volumes were expected to remain light on Friday, with NYMEX floor trading scheduled to be abbreviated for Thanksgiving weekend.
The U.S. is the world's biggest oil-consuming country, responsible for almost 22% of global oil demand.
Hamas and Israel are seeking to solidify the cease-fire which took effect at 9 p.m. local time November 21 and was announced by Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohamed Amr and U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
The conflict threatens further instability in the Middle East and North Africa after a wave of uprisings that started last year, including one that almost entirely halted crude exports from Libya.
Oil prices rose on Thursday after data showed that Germany's manufacturing purchasing managers' index rose to 46.8 in November, up from 46.0 in October and better than forecasts for a reading of 45.9.
Meanwhile, the euro zone's manufacturing PMI rose to 46.2 this month from 45.4 in October, above expectations for a reading of 45.6, while French factory data also improved more-than-expected.
Meanwhile, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said an agreement to unlock a delayed bailout installment for Greece was still possible when euro zone finance ministers resume talks on Monday.
Talks between finance ministers and the International Monetary Fund ended without a deal on Tuesday, amid disagreements on how best to reduce the country's debt to sustainable levels.
Oil prices were also supported after a report showed that China's preliminary HSBC manufacturing PMI rose to 50.4 in November, up from a final reading of 49.5 in October.
It was the first expansion in manufacturing activity since September 2011, easing concerns over the growth outlook for the world's second largest economy.
China is the world's second largest oil consumer after the U.S. and has been the engine of strengthening demand.
Elsewhere, on the ICE Futures Exchange, Brent oil futures for December delivery fell 0.10% to trade at USD110.43 a barrel, with the spread between the Brent and crude contracts standing at USD23.16 a barrel.

For those of you who want a work space but don't actually have a separate room to dedicate to this purpose; and for those of you who, like me, just love smart & beautiful ideas, I have found the perfect piece.
Have a look at this portable desk: the 'Fold-Out Convertible Desk" which when not in use folds to become a 6" deep wall cabinet for easy storage. The compact workstation, other than providing an instant workspace, also includes a number of shelves to store office supplies, slots for file folders and a corkboard for notes. Measuring 22"x32"x 6", the convertible desk is ideal for small family rooms, kitchens, bedrooms, small apartments or wherever you might need it.
Stay organized when paying bills and comfortable when using your laptop.
Made of MDF& veneer. In walnut or black finish.
A great way to make the most of a guest room space without cluttering it with extra furniture. Just tuck the desk back into the cabinet when visitors come!
All you need to do now is mount it on the wall and start working.
You can find this at Solutions — browse through their site for all kinds of great ideas.

Saint Mary's City
Visiting Saint Mary's city Oct. 19-21 for the Oyster Festival. First, does anyone know anything about the festival, like how good the food is, do they serve beer, and anything else. Second, any recommendations on places to eat. Of course seafood is a good option, but we like to try anything.
The festival is truly a local gem and gives you a real taste for the real Southern Maryland. My boyfriend and I went for the first time last year and had a blast eating a ton of oysters, so you really won't need to eat elsewhere. They have plenty of beer as well.

re: SmrtBloned
This is one of those oh what would I do without chowhound moments! Thanks for bringing this festival up! I am soooooooooooooooooooooo there!
My long-standing rec for that general area is Clarke's Landing. Incredible crab cake, but a fairly full menu otherwise. Of course, CD Cafe and Dry Dock across that bridge to Solomon's.
Here's a thread that might give you other ideas: http://www.chowhound.com/topics/420142
The Oyster Festival is da bomb. Oyster shooters; raw, steamed, fried oysters; oyster stew; crab soup; clam strips; stuffed ham sandwiches. Truly a food lover's paradise with lots of local color. Beer is plentiful.
But if they have the local wine stand again, stay away. Stay very far away. Blech.
On the way there (or back, depending) is Randy's Ribs in Hughesville. Definitely worth a stop.
re: debit
for good "fine dining" type fare (but no "dress code")
Cafe des Artistes in Leonardtown - best bet is the earlybird (before 6:00) three course prix fixe
Brome Howard Inn, just south of the college
For seafood,
Courtney's or Schneibles (I may have the latter name wrong) - go down Route 5 toward Point Lookout, and follow the signs - the two places are about 100 yards apart, so the signs for Schneible's will get you to both. as you get to the end of the road, turn right into Schneible's or go straight to get to Courtney's
I also like Clarke's Landing, but sometimes the "boater chic" crowd is in residence, and it gets to me
For BBQ - Bear Creek - pretty close to the fairground (towrd Port Lookout) on 5. Open pit BBQ chicken, ribs, sausage, etc.
There have been some other St. Mary's City or Southern MD threads recently, so it would be worth doing a board search for more.
re: Warthog
It's Scheibles (no n) if your looking for directions. Both are great choices.
re: Warthog
I definitely second the Brome Howard Inn - historic 19th c. B&B with a restaurant on the ground floor. My husband and I stay there every year, the food is delicious (lots of local produce) and the family that runs the inn so lovely and accomodating.
re: shellymck
uh...more like 15-20 mins.
Thanks everyone for all the great info. Sounds like we made a good choice on this one. I love oysters, so it should be awesome. One quick question, I also like good beers, do they serve any craft beer at the festival or just typical coors light, bud, etc. I can always focus on the oyster shooters!
re: dfishhead
Hmm...you know what, I don't remember what kind of beer I had, but I don't remember caring too much as the oysters and ambiance was awesome. I'm pretty picky about beer as well.
re: dfishhead
They usually have a Sam Adams seasonal or Redhook on draft, but that's about it for beer that's a cut above the usual suspects.
I've been going to this festival annually for just about the last 15 years. It's always fun, but I have to say that the prices for oysters have crept up to the point that they're now on par with suburban DC prices. I think last year it was running $16.00 for a dozen on the half shell or scalded.
re: MDBBQFiend
Just hang around the shucking contest for awhile, especially the amateurs. You can't beat free!
Had a great time in Southern MD this past weekend. Had reservations for Friday night at Cafe Des Artistes, unfortunately, our camper blew a tire and we missed reservation. Plan B was late light dinner at Clarkes Landing. Crabcake and soup. Very good. Oyster Festival was lots of fun. Really enjoyed watching the Shucking competition. I think the highlight of the weekend foodwise, was dinner at Courtneys. Fresh rockfish was truly awesome, and the experience of the fisherman owner is not to be missed. As a side note Schiebles is closed. Thanks to everyone for the good advice.
re: dfishhead
When you say Schiebles is closed, I'm assuming you saw a sing or there were no signs of life there when you went to Courtney's. If there was a sign, I'd be curious if they are closed for good, or just closed for vacation or on "reduced hours" now that the summer boating season is ended? Either of the latter two would not surprise me - I would guess that fall and winter are slow for them.

Banished from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch a decade ago, Joseph Pulitzer IV lives in self-imposed exile in Wyoming. What went wrong?
Emily Pulitzer's gift to St. Louis has arrived in a concrete box. Hidden inside: the portrait of a woman who changed the city.
Editor Cole Campbell has left in his dinghy, and the mutineers at the Post-Dispatch are jubilant. Now, the flagship is listing and the crew has no idea where it's headed.
Getting to the bottom of Post-Dispatch editor Cole Campbell's abrupt departure

"We were singing, and the whole cast and crew were sitting there in silence just waiting for us to finish," recalls Evans, best known as living doll Timmy on NBC's offbeat soap Passions. "I realized the silence and said, 'Ron, I think maybe they want to go back to work.'"
Being a part of The Grinch which is fast approaching the $150 million mark at the box office after less than two weeks in release also gave Evans the chance to spend a few days mugging backstage with the king of funny faces, Jim Carrey, who plays the elder Grinch. "I had to learn how to copy his mannerisms and vice-versa," says Evans. "He's very serious about his work. He would spontaneously combust if he had to for a director and not think about the consequences."
The busy Evans has been a regular fixture on the game show circuit of late, recently appearing on both Hollywood Squares and Family Feud (along with his Passions co-stars). "Hollywood Squares is a lot less thinking," he admits. "With Family Feud, not only do you have to think about your own answers, you have to think about what other people would say."
On the Passions front, Evans is encouraging fans to stick with the show's sometimes wacky storylines. "Just stay tuned, no matter what you think of the show," he says. "At times, you're going to get real upset with it because they're going to do things that you don't like. But it gets better at the end. It's all meant for a reason."

Posted Sunday, May 25, 2014 --- 2:06 p.m.
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Scientists in Wisconsin and Minnesota are studying a little-known fish whose disappearance could mean smaller musky, pike and walleye in the states' inland lakes.
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources is three years into a long-term study of the cisco, or lake herring. Cisco are slender white fish that need cold, clean water to survive.
Wisconsin is studying about 200 lakes that at one time had the fish. They say cisco are an important food for other fish and may serve as an early warning of problems in fisheries.
Pete Jacobson, a fisheries research supervisor with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, says Minnesota scientists have found cisco may live in about 650 lakes there, but populations have rapidly declined since 1975.

Mike Knox
Real Name
Michael Hettinga
Date of Birth
July 17, 1978
Place of Birth

A picture of the Menagerie, a stable created by TNA to give Mike Knox a push upon his return to Impact Wrestling.
May 8, 2014
As some of you already know, former WWE and TNA star Luke Gallows recently got married. CM Punk, AJ Lee, Zack Ryder, Curt Hawkins, Mike Knox, Bully Ray, Angelina Love, Samoa Joe, Mickie James, Matt Hardy, Reby Sky, Velvet Sky and Colt Cabana were among those in attendance at the wedding.
May 20, 2014
In order to bring a new infusion of blood to their talent roster, TNA has signed Crazy Steve, a professional wrestler who made a name for himself on the independent wrestling circuit in Canada. He will be a member of the new Menagerie stable with Mike Knox, Rebel and Rob Terry, who will be working underneath a mask for this role.
May 2, 2014
Rumors have been floating around for the last couple of months that Rob Terry was going to be brought back to TNA after gaining experience in OVW and Japan, where he worked with the Great Muta in Wrestle-1. Now, the news is official. Terry will be working underneath a mask as a member of the stable featuring Mike Knox and Rebel.
May 2, 2014
Since TNA wants to see him doing well, management has decided to give Mike Knox a stable to lead when he makes his official return to the company. Vignettes have been aired on the past couple episodes of Impact Wrestling to tease the return. Knox will be leading a stable consisting of his sister Rebel, Crazzy Steve and a guy named the Freak.
April 29, 2014
A video from Impact Wrestling that teases the imminent return of Mike Knox, who looks to be bringing a lovely new Knockout with him, to TNA.
April 26, 2014
Now that it has been revealed on Impact Wrestling that Mike Knox will be making his return to television soon, rumors have surfaced that Taz is actually one of the people backstage who has been pushing TNA to keep the performer around. Throughout the last year, Taz and Bully Ray have seen their backstage powers increase within the company.
March 23, 2014
Since the end of the Aces and Eights story line, a lot of fans have been wondering about the status of the supporting cast and whether they would still remain with the company, but those that watched Impact Wrestling tonight, they now know that Mike Knox is returning to TNA television. A segment was aired, where he explains his absence over the last several weeks.
March 20, 2014
While he was expected to be a casualty of the cost cutting movement within the company, it appears that Mike Knox is still under contract to TNA. He has not been used on Impact Wrestling in quite some time now, and he also has not been booked for the various live events every weekend either. Knox is still on the official roster page as well.
February 24, 2014
Mike Knox could be the next person headed out the door in TNA. While the company likes him, they simply do not have anything planned for him since the split of Aces and Eights. There is a possibility of him being brought back into the fold at a later time.
January 16, 2014
Back when both of them were working for UPW in 2000, Mike Knox and Samoa Joe were tag team partners.

Landscape designers, like Discovery Home Channel's Rebecca Cole from Surprise by Design, are artists in the same way that sculptors and painters are, but the landscape designers have to deal with the fact that their media are constantly changing, living plants. And many of them (the plants, not the artists) take the winter off. Which is why the timing couldn't be better for the Saint Louis Art Museum's four-day Art in Bloom celebration (especially since you've got to feel bad for the St. Louis flowers this year, what with all the unseasonably warm-winter-weather confusion). Fortunately, at this festival which begins with a 6:30 p.m. preview party ($50) on Thursday and runs through Sunday (February 23 through 26) the buds aren't confused at all; they have confidently exploded, bright as ever, and are ready to be celebrated. So this year, Art in Bloom offers free docent-led tours of the floral arrangements (Friday through Sunday), lectures from experts like Cole (twice on Friday; $10) and St. Louis native Renny Reynolds (Saturday at 2 p.m.; $6), music, dance performances (three times on Sunday; $6) and more. Visit www.slam.org or call 314-721-0072 for more information on the events, times and other prices; call 314-655-5299 to reserve a spot for one of the lectures, the preview party and/or a dance performance.

Video warning: The report contains some distressing images.
Carcasses will be collected by firms approved by the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (DARD) until Monday 15 April.
The collection deadline may be extended depending on the speed of the thaw, the department has advised.
Counties Antrim and Down were worst affected with snow drifts of up to 18ft in some areas after gale force winds and heavy snow fell almost two weeks ago.
Sam Abbott was in Castlewellan in Co Down working to collect animals that had perished in the freezing conditions.
He said it was heartbreaking to see so many dead lambs and ewes.
"The farmers in the mountains have got a raw deal," he said.
"Today has been a very hectic day for the first day the collection, the phone hasn't stopped ringing today, (we've) been inundated and we're just trying our best to get the stock off the mountain for the farmers.
"It's out of sight, out of mind."
Terry White is a farmer in the area who lost around 40 lambs in the adverse weather.
"We couldn't get near our hill sheep for four days because the road was blocked, we had trouble getting them home, whenever we got to the mountain, the ewes had lambed early, walked off and left their lambs, it was just a disaster," he explained.
He said his fields had only thawed slightly, and were still covered in snow over a week after the blizzards hit.
It's not easy, when you see your year's work going away in a lorry when it should be going to a meat plant or market, it's soul-destroying.Terry White, Co Down farmer
It's not easy, when you see your year's work going away in a lorry when it should be going to a meat plant or market, it's soul-destroying.
Terry White, Co Down farmer
Farmers in areas eligible for the collection service are to contact the Rendering Plants 'Linergy Dungannon' on 028 8775 0050 or 'Foyle Proteins' on 028 7186 1120 to arrange removal of the carcasses.
At present, the following postcode areas are eligible for collection - BT25, BT31, BT33, BT34, BT35, BT36, BT40, BT43, BT44, BT54. However, the list is subject to change and farmers should check DARD's website.
"Farmers should NOT contact DARD to arrange collection of fallen stock," a statement from the department said.
"Farmers should move fallen stock to a point on the farm which has hard standing (concrete or tarmac) and which the collecting vehicle will be able to access (central yard, end of farm lane, etc)," the department advised.
A number of carcasses may be moved to this point, and all carcasses must be covered with a tarpaulin or similar so that it is not possible for dogs / foxes / birds to access them until they are collected, the statement continued.
Carcasses must be held securely in this way until removal.
"DARD will verify the losses of animals by supervising collections of animals. Animals collected without verification by DARD staff will not be eligible," the statement continued.
Meanwhile, the public is being advised not to approach or touch the dead animals.
"Do not allow other animals (ie pet dogs) to approach or touch the dead animals," it was also advised.
Anyone who finds a dead animal should contact the DARD helpline on 0300 200 7852 with details of the dead animal - the species, number of animals and location.

- Does not disappointCM77VIPDined on 11/22/2014Great food & service. Interesting menu & great wine list!Special Features:
- Good, but...GregWDined on 11/21/2014Maybe I'm getting jaded by all the great restaurants in Portland. I had dinner here a couple nights ago solo. This was my first time back to Woodsman in a while after two previous visits. I found the food good, but not memorable (I had the seafood cocktail, which was quite good; but the braised brisket was just okay IMO). Several things bugged me, not at all unique to this establishment. Could there be enough light on the table to actually read the menus without holding up a candle or smartphone? And the lack of any acoustical absorption makes the noise level uncomfortable. And, how about those very uncomfortable chairs? I'll probably come back here at some point, but I'm more enamored with the sister restaurant, Ava Gene's, down the street, and others.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- interesting findOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/21/2014We heard about this restutant through TV interview with Grim cast noting it one of their favorites in Pdx. The menu had good and Interesting options I took my husband here for his birthday dinner and found it a fun dinner good wine, disappointed with so few local wines and the noise level so loud made it difficult to hear each other talk.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Over-salted, uninspiringMilesDined on 11/20/2014Good tasting, memorable food requires a thoughtful approach when building up the recipe. Unfortunately, the brisket and other items we had here don't have that. The Woodsman's 'cover-up' for bland food is salt, and plenty of it. True, the carrot cake was divine, and many of us enjoyed the pork, but there were too many dishes which were disappointing. I would resort to Ava Gene's (having the same owner) as a celebratory getaway.
- slowOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 11/19/2014Five for dinner with reservations on a Wednesday evening. Arriving around 6:20 we were seated promptly and our drink and appetizer order was taken. Drinks and appetizers came quickly, and that is the last time that I can use that particular adverb in this review. Long story short, we sat talking until around 8:30 when our waiter came by offering some bread, asking if he could refresh our drinks, and acknowledging that things were running slowly--because the steak one of us had ordered had a long fire time (it had been ordered blood rare; I suspect we'd be there still if it had been ordered it medium). When it finally arrived, the food was fine. The cocktails were fine as well. The wait staff was fine. There are, however, a lot of restaurants in Portland that are happy to see a group willing to drop $300 for dinner for 5, and many of them do not require one to sit patiently waiting a couple of hours for burgers and a steak. We'll be found at one of them the next time.
- Highs and lowsRavenousDined on 11/16/2014The food was either really good or really off. Oysters were phenomenal. Burgers, Brussels sprouts, and hush puppies were divine takes on classics. But the beet salad w olives and feta and the rice puff dessert, in all their uniqueness, were bland. Nice ambience and lovely staff and service. I'd go back but would be more selective about menu items.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food across the board, very good serviceLive2eatVIPDined on 11/16/20145 of us had dinner. Between us we had beer, wine and cocktails, all of which were great. The cocktails are inventive and delicious. A dozen oysters started us off - perfect. The shrimp hush puppies were so-so. The pot of chicken liver/foie gras, however, was fantastic. Hamburger, trout, and pork were great and plentiful. Only negative: lighting is too low for our 50+ year old eyes. We had to pull out the trusty phone flash light. It was a super fun place and a special night.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious FoodShermcindyDined on 11/16/2014Six of us headed to the Woodsman for dinner the other night. A few of us had never been before. The ambiance was very warm and inviting for a cold winter night. Our server was extremely knowledgable about the menu and recommended wonderful dishes. Everyone loved everything from the Crab Rolls to the smoked Trout and the Ham Plates to the Pork Cutlet. The food was served in the perfect amount of time and our server made sure that we had everything we needed throughout the night. Would highly recommend going here if you haven't already and even if you have!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Super Impressed with The Woodsman TavernOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 11/16/2014In a city full of pretentious restaurants, The Woodsman Tavern stands wonderfully apart. The location, the decor, the staff and of course the food and drinks all combine to give patrons a warm and glowing feeling as they take it all in. Bravo Woodsman!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Terribly dissapointing. My first and last time.LovediningDined on 11/15/2014When we arrived they sat us in wooden school desk chairs, so uncomfortable! I ordered the steak and it was the smallest piece of beef I have ever had at a restaurant. Skirt steak is an inexpensive cut of beef. For the price I paid I would have expected a larger portion, and the sides need to be purchased separately. I had a baked potato, the price was outrageous. It tasted fine not incredible. My husband's trout though boneless, had scales! Big no-no. The service was good but not remarkable. I heard so many great things, maybe that is why my dissapointment was so great. I was going to bring my mother the week of Thanksgiving, when she came to visit, however Portland has many more choices.
- Never disappointed.salient777Dined on 11/8/2014We have been here several times and have never been disappointed . We love their creativity with the vegetable dishes.Special Features:
- Onthetown2Dined on 11/8/2014Our party shared a sampling of dishes and found the food tasty, interesting and well prepared. The service was superb and we had a very good table. Half the restaurant is a bar, so as the night progressed the noise got very loud. We recommend the fries, beet salad, hush puppies, brussell sprouts (although a little sweet), radicchio salad and the ham and biscuits. I would have preferred the trout not swimming in broth. The menu could be expanded. Thank you for a delightful evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- ExcellentSeafoodLoverDined on 10/30/2014Wonderful dinner. Seafood was the highlight, especially the smoked muscles. Our server answered all our questions regarding wine list and menu, plus was very nice. Our daughter now lives on the east coast and was shocked how extensive the wine list was for a Portland restaurant. Will definitely go back so we can order the seafood tower. Would recommend a booth.Special Features:
- JamesDined on 10/26/2014Had a fantastic meal with friends here. The best part is that we didn't feel pressured to clear our table since it was a busy Saturday morning. Much appreciated!Special Features:
- Always CharmingKatzDined on 10/26/2014I love brunching at the Woodsman! My last visit I ordered a side of bacon and it was dripping with hot bacon fat. I prefer it gets drained and maybe patted dry, but the food overall is always fantastic!Special Features:
- Great staplemlb123Dined on 10/25/2014I have enjoyed each visit. My only suggestion is they remove the two top next to the wait station. It's kind of floating in the middle of the room and for the ambiance and price point, that would be a horrible table. LUCKILY, the hostess redirected us to a wall table. Whew! My steak was excellent. The pork seemed a little fatty, yet perhaps it was the breading... Regardless, I think of the Woodsman has a great staple. My experience was positive.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not impressed with the serviceebbyDined on 10/25/2014Let the restaurant hostess know that I would be at my reservation the day before when she called. Due to an accident and traffic, we ended up 15 minutes late for our reservation. The hostess called at the 8 min late mark and I let her know about the traffic and accident. She called again 5 mintues after that to let me know there was another reservation for our table in an hour and 45 minutes. We arrived 2 minutes after the second call, hurried to table to eat and release the table. The restaurant made no adjustment. We waited for 15 minutes before anyone came to our table to take our drink order. From there service was a slow crawl. During dessert they asked to move us to the bar to make way for their next reservation. I won't ever return.
- Enjoyable brunchlefty3382Dined on 10/19/2014Had brunch on a Sunday with 2 others. The wait staff was very pleasant. The food and drinks were good. Both my dining partners had bloody mary's which they loved and the smoked salmon with pickled veggies, cream cheese and bread. Both were very satisfied. I had the biscuits and gravy with a friend egg on top. I thought the portioning for my dish was a bit small, but after a couple brunch cocktails to go with it I was pleasantly satisfied. The noise level was a bit higher than ideal, but we were sitting next to a large table of boisterous women who were quite loud. Overall a very pleasant dining experience. I've never had dinner there, but I would definitely recommend for brunch.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Delicious, design-yPendletorDined on 10/17/2014Great meal with my ladyfriend. Our waitress was helpful and attentive, the drinks were amazing, and the food was out of this world. Trout with crazy water. It's a bit pricey, but I suppose I should have expected that.Special Features:

- Guests Want SodaOban1VIPDined on 10/16/2014The Woodsman is a very nice neighborhood restaurant, This is the second time I have been to the restaurant and again it was very awkward at the table when someone in our party wanted to order a soda, I would think serving their guests and making them feel comfortable would be the goal of the restaurant, Instead of this pretentious notion that they and their restaurant are just to good to serve beverages many guests would like to consume,Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing Brussel Sprout saladwednesdaynightdinnersDined on 10/15/2014we were very excited to go to the woodsmen and unfortunately the only thing that was amazing was the Brussels sprout salad, it was incredible. The seating was uncomfortable, our server didn't even greet us before asking us for a drink order, the food was good but not great and way over priced for the quality. we felt rushed by our server and had to ask for things multiple times. We did find the bar tender to be charming, she was friendly and welcoming. we probably will not eat there againSpecial Features:
- Good because of good companyOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 10/14/2014Went there on a Wednesday night fairly early in the evening. The food was very good - skirt steak eas cooked to perfection. The ham left a little to be desired. You would think that it would be hard to get a ham and potato dinner underwhelming. But, the ham was thinly sliced, quite salty and served over a small amount of vegetable. It was like they went down to the local delecatesin and bought some sandwich meat and put it on the veggies. Oh, but they twirled it uo a little do it looked like a bigger portion. We ordered some of the oysters, but our server forgot to bring them to the table. Since the oysters didn't come it allowed for a lot of down time enjoying our drinks that did come.Special Features:
- Not as good as it was.SwsermenoVIPDined on 10/12/2014Hadn't been here in awhile. The dining room was pretty much empty on a Sunday night. We were not given a drink menu and had to request one. The waitress spilled water all over our table and never came back to clean it up, even though she acknowledged that she made a mess. There were no specials that night and the menu was pretty small. The brussels,sprouts appetizer was great, the burger and pork cutlet wer just okay.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Woodsman Tavern = heavenBreakfastClubDined on 10/5/2014This is a great location on the east side. If you live in the neighborhood I am completely jealous. On the upside it has kept my weight down. Our breakfast crew adore this location, the food and the staff. And not necessarily in the order. Get the scrapple, you will not be disappointed. The cold brew salmon was amazing. Silky smooth and not the salty stuff you get used to having from the grocery store. The staff handled our large group (8) with ease. Cannot say enough good things about them and their food. Go there. Now.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Woodsman continues to deliverPDXLoverDined on 10/4/2014Had a nice romantic dinner with my girl last week. We were seated before asking to be moved to an open booth and the request was met with a smile. Sommelier recommended a great Beaujolais and we had a delicious sampling of oysters, salads and starters, finishing with the trout in crazywater, which we shared. Service was great but casual (as it should be in a spot like this) and we lingered for a while over that last glass of wine. The Woodsman is still worth a visit, especially since the quality of food is exceptional and it's a much easier last-minute reservation to get compared to Sorenson's newer spot down the street. I'll be back again and again.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 10/4/2014Nice outdoor seating, great cocktails and food, and friendly and helpful service. I especially liked the ham plate, plum and smoked beet salad, and peach cobbler with gouda and mascarpone. I didn't really care for the grilled cauliflower. The steak and chicken were also quite good. I will definitely be back!Special Features:
- Classic NorthwestJenniferDined on 9/28/2014Woodsman is the classic NW experience. The food is totally unique with unusual combinations of fresh and local ingredients. I love the smokey flavor imparted to most their dishes. I also manage to try new dishes because their menu is always changing and interesting. It is the perfect place to bring out of towners so they can experience the more unique and quirky side of Portland. Woodsman has excellent cocktails, that if you are not careful you will spend more on drinks than you will on dinner. Love the ambiance but not a good place for large groups or older people with hearing impairment because it is super loud. However, when you desire loud and energetic this is a fun place.Special Features:
- Excellent Vibe & FoodOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 9/27/2014Last minute decision to come here for dinner. Were able to secure a reservation and we were not disappointed. The ham and cheese fritters were outstanding! Loved the vibe!Special Features:

- Love this placeFineDinahDined on 9/20/2014We have had brunch many times here. The menu of items is always interesting and everything ordered to date has been quite delicious. Oyster offerings are first rate. The baked pancake is a great dessert for sharing! Presentation is high quality and the staff know their food and beverage offerings well. The cocktails are unique and taste wonderful - instead of "weird" as some establishments' cocktails that try too hard to be different. The noise level can be distracting when the restaurant is full which does make conversation more challenging. Other than that, this is a Saturday morning favorite!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Happy happy hourHerpibnessDined on 9/16/2014This was our first trip to the Woodsman. We were looking for a special place for dinner for our anniversary, and we had heard good things, so we gave it a try. Let me say first that I was rather put off by the prices listed, $3.50 for a single oyster on the half shell? But I ignored my hesitations & dug in. Happy hour has a lovely feature, wherein there are some oysters priced at a mere (!) $2 each. The oysters were quite delicious, served with a light mignonette. Next we tried a ham plate, and as ham goes, this might have been the best either of us had ever had. Served shaved, with a freshly grilled biscuit (also splendid) and some perfectly ordinary but still yummy collards. Tuesday is fried chicken night, don't miss it!Special Features:
- Great BrunchMikeDined on 9/14/2014Wonderful oysters, creative brunch items and personalized service.Special Features:
- Good food but noisyFromthehoodDined on 9/13/2014I like the Woodsman Tavern very much. The food is very good. As a matter of fact, it is the best restaurant close to my house. I have been there more a dozen times but the noise levels are absurd. I took my mother who is 83 and the sounds in the tavern gave her a headache and it gave me a headache too and I am relatively young. I asked the staff to turn the music down because between the kitchen sounds, bar sounds, the talking of the patrons - I am sure the noise levels exceeded OSHA standards for noise exposure (I am not kidding).....and we were there at 5:30.....Special Features:

That's a crazy argument.
It's not the actual time itself that reforms you, in my opinion it's more likely to be the fact that you have been sentenced to xx years in prison that does the reforming.
Once you actually go to prison, my understanding of the stats is that you are more likely to come out a hardened, repeat offender, than you are to come out as a reformed person.

Companies burying themselves in IT gear
I agree with @Joey
Virtualisation is way overrated. And often costs significantly more than discrete hardware with a decrease in reliability.
Take my environment for example.
I work for a (non-UK) government department.
Our Sun servers are outsourced.
Our maintenance costs for a T5220 is something like 3k/month for the server, plus 2k/month for each solaris zone (virtual server). Therefore for a piece of kit with 3 VMs on it costs 9k/month, which is made up of 3k/month for the 'global zone' (the administration zone that only our outsourcers have access to) plus 2k/month for each of the VMs.
Previous to using VMs, it cost a flat 3k/month for each server. Therefore having 3 physical servers cost 9k/month.
Now of course, if we have physical hardware failure we have lost 3 zones, what was once 3 physical servers, for the same cost.
Whie you might say that there is more flexibility, in that there is the ability to assign unused resources from one zone to another, while in theory there is, it costs $$ to get the resources assigned. First, someone has to prove we need resources moved from zone A to zone B (say 20 man-hours), then they've got to convince their management to send a request to the outsourcer to move the resources. Then it's got to go through change control (another 5-10 man-hours of various people's time), then the outsourcer, 4 weeks later, charges 4k+ to type a few commands on the command line to move the resources...
From an administrators point of view, manageing 10 VMs is exactly the same as managing 10 physical servers that aren't VMed. It still takes the same amount of time to ssh to a VM, check logs/restart an app server/truss processes/configure something/deploy something as it does to ssh to a physical server. I can definitely tell you that labour costs of system admins managing a server, whether it is physical or virtual, are far greater than labour costs in asset management or data centre costs. And with the virtualisatoin hype, management (on advice of the outsourcers of course) are going to create shedloads of VMs, costing more $$$ than having a few physical servers.
Using VMs also increases complexity and other maintenance costs. Does this new patch work in a VM? Do we have to keep VMs patched? How much does it cost to verify the software/patch that works fine on a bare-metal server also works within a VM on the same hardware?
What about tracking down problems? What is the real physical interface traffic is coming into/out of because in the VM we only have visibility to the virtual interface? How does it complicate our routing tables on the server to ensure that data leaving VM A has a source IP address of A while traffic leaving VM B has source of B, rather than each one randomly picking a physical interface to transmit out from?
Virtualisation just increases costs and decreases reliability.

"It's kind of like the French legal code, "You ARE Guilty Until YOU Prove You Are Innocent"."
No offense, but that is NOT the French Legal Code. It is from the Napoleonic code, which while the basis of the French civil law system, is not THE system.
From wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presumption_of_innocence#Differences_between_legal_systems (I know I know, wikipedia is not particularly accurate, but it was convienient to use as a source for something I alreay believe to be correct):
"In France, article 9 of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, of constitutional value, says "Everyone is supposed innocent until having been declared guilty." and the preliminary article of the code of criminal procedure says "any suspected or prosecuted person is presumed to be innocent until their guilt has been established". The jurors' oath reiterates this assertion."

If you are a finance website, say Forbes or similiar, do you want a competitor having access to your propriety data, say Google (finance.google.com) or Yahoo (finance.yahoo.com) to have your data hosted on their servers where they can mine it for themselves? Or even inject bogus data in to ruin your forecasts etc?
Do you want your internal emails being available for an external organisation to search for 'juicy' tidbits to sell off to competitors or even the media?
Even if the external SaaS providers do not use the data directly to sell on, maybe they use it for gathering statistical analysis. Perhaps Nielsen starts providing SaaS services and using the data stored to provide its statistical analysis, which it sells for a profit, thus earning money from you twice. Once from the subscription model, then again by selling results of mining your data.
It just makes no commercial sense to me to hand over your core business data to another organisation.
