Design brief
Urban Ohm
We are a yoga studio, offering indoor and outdoor yoga and pilates to people who live in Dubai. Target audience is mostly ages 20 - 50 who are mid-high income. 75% are women but we want to appeal to men too. and in fact grow the men segment if possible.
We have been operating already, offering yoga outdoors and in private sessions (ie. without the studio) - you can check out the website to get a feel for the company. Keep in mind, that the site will be in for an overhaul once we open the studio.... http://www.urbanohm.com & facebook.com/urbanohmyoga
Physical Fitness
None specified
The basic idea behind the brand is about yoga being part of a hectic, urban life. I describe it as "An oasis of yogic thought and lifestyle in Dubai's chaotic urban world. At Urban Ohm, we help you maintain balance & focus in your life - to keep your "Ohm" - through yoga."
Some additional descriptors: Urban / downtown feel; Part of your everyday life; Inclusive - yoga for yogis, yoga for beginners, yoga as part of your overall fitness regime; Nothing too "out there" or spiritual. I don't want it to scare people off...
If doing a graphic, I'd ideally like a version with the company name, one without the name.
Logo needs to be original. It should look professional but not too corporate. A little funky/urban/modern, but not too much so.

It can be found here: http://www.ivillage.com/forums/node/119792023 and includes important information on the future of a lot of the threads on this (and other) iVillage boards.
Please, if you have a thread you follow which hasn't been posted to since 2011, and you want to keep it, post to it NOW. In February, the older threads will all be archived in an atttempt to make the new operating sytem work more effeiciently and we don't know if, or when, that archive will be avaialble again.
In the same vein, I noticed yesterday, when researching for Stocker2, thata lot of the older threads now have broken links (I don't know if this is because of them being older or because of the data transfer). If you run across a thread with a broken link, pease, let me know and if I can, I will try to recreate the link (not always possible, and I can't edit posts that are written by any screen name except "thatyank" so it will have to be in a new post. I am aware that a lot of our threads now start with what amounts to "empty" Original Posts. The transfer of data from Lithium to the new system seems to have selectively stripped some posts of their text. I'm sorry, but I cannot restore those... and I suspect neither can the tech team, but they have been made aware of the situation.
Here's hoping this archiving will solve some of the problems of slowness and the like that have plagued the boards since the stransfer from Lithium...
|Mon, 02-04-2013 - 2:11pm
Carol..I wanted this to be a new thread, but was afraid it would get buried way down the board and you might not see it.
I wanted you to know how much I appreciate coming here and looking around. You post some of the most interesting and helpful information and links. I really enjoy looking over so many of them. Sorry I seldom post unless it applies to something I am doing at the time, but your info and links do inspire me to do more.
Yesterday I looked over some links here to porches and entrances. That helped inspire me to finally get my two front porch wicker chairs painted!! Heading to Lowe's now for primer paint and then will begin the painting process.
Thank you for all of your hard work in researching information for all of us to enjoy reading and using to our advantage. You are a great CL!!

Written by Dagmar Fors Karppi, firstname.lastname@example.com Wednesday, 16 April 2014 00:00Snouder's Corner Drugstore is up for sale by Laffey Fine Homes. Patrick J. Valente, licensed associate broker said, "I just showed it yesterday morning to an interested buyer." He said the asking price is $995,000, "just short of a million" and added, "everything's negotiable today."
Valente said, "It's a great building, a town landmark and it does need work. It would be great for retail and maybe offices are a possibility. The heating plant is working and the taxes are a little under $40,000."
He said, "It is the first thing you see when you come into town. It would be nice to have someone there."
Valente said he has two potential buyers currently: "It depends on the price."
The first floor is 4,000 square feet, and would be good for retail; the second floor is 3,000 square feet, which could be offices; there is a third floor big loft area. Located at 108 South St., Laffey dates the building at 1863. Snouder's Corner Drugstore opened there in 1884.
It has housed two businesses on the West Main Street side. There is parking for two cars on the site.
The exterior has to be restored, Valente said, but everything has to remain the same, especially the paint color since it is a town landmark building. Town landmark law states that the area viewed by the residents from the streetscape must remain the same. Alterations out of view of passerbys are allowed with consideration.All In The Family
Marie Genovese is the other Licensed Real Estate salesperson selling Snouder's. Marie is married to Frank Genovese's son, Frank. The Genovese's son John worked in the store for some time, handling the medical equipment side of the business.
In 2011 after they closed the business, there was a hope of creating a Snouder's Corner Drugstore Foundation to raise $3 million to preserve and restore the building but no momentum from the community was ever achieved. The building is still owned by the two partners Eugene King and Frank Genovese.
Retired pharmacist and father-in-law Frank Genovese said they still have their collection of antique bottles from the building. He is looking forward to the sale of the property. When Smiros & Smiros did their version of the restoration of the building, they suggested stripping off the façade on the South Street side to reveal the original porch. Genovese said, "What happens depends on who buys it. We are not doing what was originally planned, to raise enough money to preserve it."
They had planned for retail on the first floor and offices upstairs. He said while the third floor ceiling is high enough for someone to stand up in, "You could use the third floor depending on how you develop the upstairs. It could be a mezzanine type thing, not as a complete floor, but you would need fire escapes."
He said, "We were trying to raise the money and to get someone interested, trying to get the funding, it didn't work out to well."
Forty-Year Anniversary
Valente said, "Our company, Laffey Fine Homes, is celebrating our 40th anniversary on April 30, in Huntington with a Paramount event." They are inviting 700 of their closest family and friends, with live music, and more information to become available as they get closer to the date.
Valente has been with Laffey from over a dozen years. "Education is the most important thing in real estate," he said.
"We are on the Internet at Laffey.com and have close to 17 offices on the north shore. The father started the company in Bellrose and his sons took over. I work out of the office next to P.C. Richard's on Route 25A, Northern Boulevard."
Valente said one of those interested in seeing the building was a young couple. He said, "They appreciated the old world charm," and he was able to share their interest since he had studied architecture himself.
In 2011, Isaac Kremer, Main Street Association executive director at the time, said, "There are substantial incentives for historic preservation including grants and tax credits that the building would qualify for - and the MSA has demonstrated through the Octagon Hotel and many other projects that it would be able to help get them."
Another perk of being a landmark building is that the town is unusual in terms of Landmark Preservation laws, as it allows about a 15 percent reduction of the town tax on landmark property.
Longtime residents fondly remember the soda fountain that was at the store in the 1940s and '50s. They had hamburgers too. The young teens like to sit on the steps to the second floor, on South Street. It was a favorite hangout. When the fountain was removed, Frank Genovese stored the marble counter in his barn for some time.

November 26, 2014
The vehicle being pursued struck a fire hydrant near Windward Drive and Buccaneer Boulevard in Buccaneer Bay and the driver was taken to the hospital.
Cass County Sheriff William C. Brueggemann advised that his office is investigating the accident that resulted after Plattsmouth Police officers pursued a red 1992 Chevrolet pickup. Police say the driver had been observed operating the vehicle recklessly in Plattsmouth. The incident began after 11pm Friday.
According to the Cassgram, Brueggemann says the driver of the pickup was identified as Jared Rye, age 24, of Plattsmouth. Rye was taken to Midlands Hospital for injuries and deputies went to Midlands to get a blood draw for possible driving while intoxicated charges as alcohol is suspected in the incident, says the report.
Reports from both the Plattsmouth Police Department and Cass County Sheriff's Office will be forwarded to the County Attorney's Office for possible charges.

To get your own customized tutorial showing you how to use any feature of OpenEars or its plugins in your app, just flip the switches for the features you want. Anywhere that you see the icon you can click it to have the code which follows it copied to your clipboard so you can paste it into your app. Remember, never test recognition on the Simulator since it doesn't use the real OpenEars audio driver.
Show me a 5-minute tutorial for an OpenEars-enabled app with the following features:
Preparing to use OpenEars
• Inside your downloaded OpenEars distribution there is a folder called "Framework". Drag that folder into your app project in Xcode. Make absolutely sure that in the add dialog "Create groups for any added folders" is selected and NOT "Create folder references for any added folders" because the wrong setting here will prevent your app from working. If you are using Xcode 5 with a build number of 5A1413 or later, it has a bug which results in frameworks linked by reference being changed to link at incorrect URL paths, so it is necessary for you to also check the box that says "Copy items into destination group's folder (if needed)", or you may receive errors that header files can't be found. If you receive this kind of error with Xcode 5, it means that your Framework Search Path for the added frameworks has been changed to an invalid URL, so you may have to open that Build Setting for your app target and change it back to a correct path.
• Optional: to save space in your app binary, go to the build settings for your app target and search for the setting "Deployment Postprocessing" and set it to "Yes".
• Add the iOS frameworks AudioToolbox and AVFoundation to your app.
Preparing to use Plugins
Then open up the Build Settings tab of the target app project and find the entry "Other Linker Flags" and add the linker flag "-ObjC":
And then drag your downloaded demo framework into your app project.
Using LanguageModelGenerator
#import <OpenEars/LanguageModelGenerator.h>Wherever you need to instantiate the language model generator, do it as follows:
LanguageModelGenerator *lmGenerator = [[LanguageModelGenerator alloc] init];
In the method where you want to create your language model (for instance your viewDidLoad method), add the following method call (replacing the placeholders like "WORD" and "A PHRASE" with actual words and phrases you want to be able to recognize):
NSArray *words = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"WORD", @"STATEMENT", @"OTHER WORD", @"A PHRASE", nil]; NSString *name = @"NameIWantForMyLanguageModelFiles"; NSError *err = [lmGenerator generateLanguageModelFromArray:words withFilesNamed:name forAcousticModelAtPath:[AcousticModel pathToModel:@"AcousticModelEnglish"]]; // Change "AcousticModelEnglish" to "AcousticModelSpanish" to create a Spanish language model instead of an English one. NSDictionary *languageGeneratorResults = nil; NSString *lmPath = nil; NSString *dicPath = nil; if([err code] == noErr) { languageGeneratorResults = [err userInfo]; lmPath = [languageGeneratorResults objectForKey:@"LMPath"]; dicPath = [languageGeneratorResults objectForKey:@"DictionaryPath"]; } else { NSLog(@"Error: %@",[err localizedDescription]); }If you are using the default English-language or Spanish-language model generation, it is a requirement to enter your words and phrases in all capital letters, since the model is generated against a dictionary in which the entries are capitalized (meaning that if the words in the array aren't capitalized, they will not match the dictionary and you will not have the widest variety of pronunciations understood for the word you are using). If you need to create a fixed language model ahead of time instead of creating it dynamically in your app, just use this method (or generateLanguageModelFromTextFile:withFilesNamed:) to submit your full language model using the Simulator and then use the Simulator documents folder script to get the language model and dictionary file out of the documents folder and add it to your app bundle, referencing it from there.
Using PocketsphinxController
To use PocketsphinxController, you need a language model and a phonetic dictionary for it. These files define which words PocketsphinxController is capable of recognizing. They are created above by using LanguageModelGenerator. You also need an acoustic model. OpenEars ships with an English and a Spanish acoustic model.
#import <OpenEars/PocketsphinxController.h> #import <OpenEars/AcousticModel.h>In the middle part where instance variables go:
PocketsphinxController *pocketsphinxController;In the bottom part where class properties go:
@property (strong, nonatomic) PocketsphinxController *pocketsphinxController;
@synthesize pocketsphinxController;Among the other methods of the class, add this lazy accessor method for confident memory management of the object:
- (PocketsphinxController *)pocketsphinxController { if (pocketsphinxController == nil) { pocketsphinxController = [[PocketsphinxController alloc] init]; } return pocketsphinxController; }
[self.pocketsphinxController startListeningWithLanguageModelAtPath:lmPath dictionaryAtPath:dicPath acousticModelAtPath:[AcousticModel pathToModel:@"AcousticModelEnglish"] languageModelIsJSGF:NO]; // Change "AcousticModelEnglish" to "AcousticModelSpanish" to perform Spanish recognition instead of English.
Using FliteController
To use FliteController, you need to have at least one Flite voice added to your project. When you added the "framework" folder of OpenEars to your app, you already imported a voice called Slt, so these instructions will use the Slt voice. You can get eight more free voices in OpenEarsExtras, available at https://bitbucket.org/Politepix/openearsextras
#import <Slt/Slt.h> #import <OpenEars/FliteController.h>In the middle part where instance variables go:
FliteController *fliteController; Slt *slt;In the bottom part where class properties go:
@property (strong, nonatomic) FliteController *fliteController; @property (strong, nonatomic) Slt *slt;
@synthesize fliteController; @synthesize slt;Among the other methods of the class, add these lazy accessor methods for confident memory management of the object:
- (FliteController *)fliteController { if (fliteController == nil) { fliteController = [[FliteController alloc] init]; } return fliteController; } - (Slt *)slt { if (slt == nil) { slt = [[Slt alloc] init]; } return slt; }
[self.fliteController say:@"A short statement" withVoice:self.slt];
Using OpenEarsEventsObserver
#import <OpenEars/OpenEarsEventsObserver.h>at the @interface declaration, add the OpenEarsEventsObserverDelegate inheritance. An example of this for a view controller called ViewController would look like this:
@interface ViewController : UIViewController <OpenEarsEventsObserverDelegate> {In the middle part where instance variables go:
OpenEarsEventsObserver *openEarsEventsObserver;In the bottom part where class properties go:
@property (strong, nonatomic) OpenEarsEventsObserver *openEarsEventsObserver;
@synthesize openEarsEventsObserver;Among the other methods of the class, add this lazy accessor method for confident memory management of the object:
- (OpenEarsEventsObserver *)openEarsEventsObserver { if (openEarsEventsObserver == nil) { openEarsEventsObserver = [[OpenEarsEventsObserver alloc] init]; } return openEarsEventsObserver; }and then right before you start your first OpenEars functionality (for instance, right before your first self.fliteController say:withVoice: message or right before your first self.pocketsphinxController startListeningWithLanguageModelAtPath:dictionaryAtPath:languageModelIsJSGF: message) send this message:
[self.openEarsEventsObserver setDelegate:self];
- (void) pocketsphinxDidReceiveHypothesis:(NSString *)hypothesis recognitionScore:(NSString *)recognitionScore utteranceID:(NSString *)utteranceID { NSLog(@"The received hypothesis is %@ with a score of %@ and an ID of %@", hypothesis, recognitionScore, utteranceID); } - (void) pocketsphinxDidStartCalibration { NSLog(@"Pocketsphinx calibration has started."); } - (void) pocketsphinxDidCompleteCalibration { NSLog(@"Pocketsphinx calibration is complete."); } - (void) pocketsphinxDidStartListening { NSLog(@"Pocketsphinx is now listening."); } - (void) pocketsphinxDidDetectSpeech { NSLog(@"Pocketsphinx has detected speech."); } - (void) pocketsphinxDidDetectFinishedSpeech { NSLog(@"Pocketsphinx has detected a period of silence, concluding an utterance."); } - (void) pocketsphinxDidStopListening { NSLog(@"Pocketsphinx has stopped listening."); } - (void) pocketsphinxDidSuspendRecognition { NSLog(@"Pocketsphinx has suspended recognition."); } - (void) pocketsphinxDidResumeRecognition { NSLog(@"Pocketsphinx has resumed recognition."); } - (void) pocketsphinxDidChangeLanguageModelToFile:(NSString *)newLanguageModelPathAsString andDictionary:(NSString *)newDictionaryPathAsString { NSLog(@"Pocketsphinx is now using the following language model: \n%@ and the following dictionary: %@",newLanguageModelPathAsString,newDictionaryPathAsString); } - (void) pocketSphinxContinuousSetupDidFail { // This can let you know that something went wrong with the recognition loop startup. Turn on OPENEARSLOGGING to learn why. NSLog(@"Setting up the continuous recognition loop has failed for some reason, please turn on OpenEarsLogging to learn more."); } - (void) testRecognitionCompleted { NSLog(@"A test file that was submitted for recognition is now complete."); }
Using LanguageModelGenerator+RuleORama
#import <OpenEars/LanguageModelGenerator.h>in your app and add the following line right underneath it:
#import <RuleORamaDemo/LanguageModelGenerator+RuleORama.h>Next, change this line where you create a language model:
NSError *err = [lmGenerator generateLanguageModelFromArray:words withFilesNamed:name forAcousticModelAtPath:[AcousticModel pathToModel:@"AcousticModelEnglish"]];to use this grammar and method instead:
NSDictionary *grammar = @{ ThisWillBeSaidOnce : @[ @{ OneOfTheseCanBeSaidOnce : @[@"HELLO COMPUTER", @"GREETINGS ROBOT"]}, @{ OneOfTheseWillBeSaidOnce : @[@"DO THE FOLLOWING", @"INSTRUCTION"]}, @{ OneOfTheseWillBeSaidOnce : @[@"GO", @"MOVE"]}, @{ThisWillBeSaidOnce : @[ @{ OneOfTheseWillBeSaidOnce : @[@"10", @"20",@"30"]}, @{ OneOfTheseWillBeSaidOnce : @[@"LEFT", @"RIGHT", @"FORWARD"]} ]}, @{ ThisCanBeSaidOnce : @[@"THANK YOU"]} ] }; NSError *err = [lmGenerator generateFastGrammarFromDictionary:grammar withFilesNamed:name forAcousticModelAtPath:[AcousticModel pathToModel:@"AcousticModelEnglish"]];This will allow you to recognize statements in accordance with this grammar, such as: HELLO COMPUTER DO THE FOLLOWING MOVE 10 LEFT THANK YOU or GREETINGS ROBOT INSTRUCTION MOVE 20 RIGHT but it will not recognize individual words or words in orders outside of the grammar. Please note that unlike the JSGF output type in stock OpenEars, RuleORama doesn't support the rule types with optional repetitions. Rules defined with repetitions will be compressed into a rule with a single repetition.
Using LanguageModelGenerator+Rejecto
#import <OpenEars/LanguageModelGenerator.h>in your app and add the following line right underneath it:
#import <RejectoDemo/LanguageModelGenerator+Rejecto.h>Next, change this line where you create a language model:
NSError *err = [lmGenerator generateLanguageModelFromArray:words withFilesNamed:name forAcousticModelAtPath:[AcousticModel pathToModel:@"AcousticModelEnglish"]];to use this method instead:
NSError *err = [lmGenerator generateRejectingLanguageModelFromArray:words withFilesNamed:name withOptionalExclusions:nil usingVowelsOnly:FALSE withWeight:nil forAcousticModelAtPath:[AcousticModel pathToModel:@"AcousticModelEnglish"]]; // Change "AcousticModelEnglish" to "AcousticModelSpanish" to create a Spanish Rejecto model.You will use the same array for languageModelArray (again, the words and phrases in your array must be in all-capital letters) and the same files name for fileName as you did with the old generateLanguageModelFromArray method, and to get started you can use the value "nil" for optionalExclusions, vowelsOnly, and weight, since they are there to help you refine your results and might not be needed. You can learn more about fine-tuning your results with those optional parameters in the Rejecto documentation.
Using PocketsphinxController+RapidEars
Like PocketsphinxController which it extends, we need a language model created with LanguageModelGenerator before using PocketsphinxController+RapidEars. We have already completed that step above.
#import <RapidEarsDemo/PocketsphinxController+RapidEars.h>Next, comment out all calls in your app to the method
startListeningWithLanguageModelAtPath:dictionaryAtPath:languageModelIsJSGF:and in the same part of your app where you were formerly using this method, place the following:
[self.pocketsphinxController setRapidEarsToVerbose:FALSE]; // This defaults to FALSE but will give a lot of debug readout if set TRUE [self.pocketsphinxController setRapidEarsAccuracy:10]; // This defaults to 20, maximum accuracy, but can be set as low as 1 to save CPU [self.pocketsphinxController setFinalizeHypothesis:TRUE]; // This defaults to TRUE and will return a final hypothesis, but can be turned off to save a little CPU and will then return no final hypothesis; only partial "live" hypotheses. [self.pocketsphinxController setFasterPartials:TRUE]; // This will give faster rapid recognition with less accuracy. This is what you want in most cases since more accuracy for partial hypotheses will have a delay. [self.pocketsphinxController setFasterFinals:FALSE]; // This will give an accurate final recognition. You can have earlier final recognitions with less accuracy as well by setting this to TRUE. [self.pocketsphinxController startRealtimeListeningWithLanguageModelAtPath:lmPath dictionaryAtPath:dicPath acousticModelAtPath:[AcousticModel pathToModel:@"AcousticModelEnglish"]]; // Starts the rapid recognition loop. Change "AcousticModelEnglish" to "AcousticModelSpanish" in order to perform Spanish language recognition.If you find that sometimes you are getting live recognition and other times not, make sure that you have definitely replaced all instances of startListeningWithLanguageModelAtPath: with startRealtimeListeningWithLanguageModelAtPath:.
Using OpenEarsEventsObserver+RapidEars
#import <OpenEars/OpenEarsEventsObserver.h>Add the line
#import <RapidEarsDemo/OpenEarsEventsObserver+RapidEars.h>And after this OpenEarsEventsObserver delegate method you added when setting up your OpenEars app:
- (void) pocketSphinxContinuousSetupDidFail { }Just add the following extended delegate methods:
- (void) rapidEarsDidReceiveLiveSpeechHypothesis:(NSString *)hypothesis recognitionScore:(NSString *)recognitionScore { NSLog(@"rapidEarsDidReceiveLiveSpeechHypothesis: %@",hypothesis); } - (void) rapidEarsDidReceiveFinishedSpeechHypothesis:(NSString *)hypothesis recognitionScore:(NSString *)recognitionScore { NSLog(@"rapidEarsDidReceiveFinishedSpeechHypothesis: %@",hypothesis); } - (void) rapidEarsDidDetectBeginningOfSpeech { NSLog(@"rapidEarsDidDetectBeginningOfSpeech"); } - (void) rapidEarsDidDetectEndOfSpeech { NSLog(@"rapidEarsDidDetectEndOfSpeech"); }
Using FliteController+NeatSpeech
FliteController+NeatSpeech preconditionsIn order to use NeatSpeech, as well as importing the framework into your OpenEars-enabled project, it is also necessary to import the voices and voice data files by dragging the "Voice" folder in the disk image into your app project (once your app is working you can read more here about how to remove the elements you don't need in order to have a small app binary size). Very important: when you drag in the voices and framework folders, make sure that in Xcode's "Add" dialog, "Create groups for any added folders" is selected. Make sure that "Create folder references for any added folders" is not selected or your app will not work. For the last step, change the name of the implementation source file in which you are going to call NeatSpeech methods from .m to .mm (for instance, if the implementation is named ViewController.m, change its name to ViewController.mm and verify in the Finder that the name of the file has changed) and then make sure that in your target Build Settings, under the section "C++ Standard Library", the setting "libstdc++ (Gnu C++ standard library)" is selected. If you receive errors like "Undefined symbols for architecture i386: std::basic_ios
FliteController+NeatSpeech implementationFliteController+Neatspeech just replaces FliteController's voice type with the advanced NeatSpeech voice type and it replaces FliteController's say:withVoice: method with NeatSpeech's sayWithNeatSpeech:withVoice: method. Before adding NeatSpeech, make sure that you either change the name of the View Controller that is hosting NeatSpeech from .m to .mm (so if it is called ViewController.m you should change it to ViewController.mm) or as an alternative to that you can add the linker flag -lstdc++ to "Other Linker Flags" under "Build Settings". Then, in order to use NeatSpeech in a project that has FliteController enabled, you will only have to do the following: In your header replace this:
#import <Slt/Slt.h> #import <OpenEars/FliteController.h>with this:
#import <Emma/Emma.h> #import <OpenEars/FliteController.h> #import <NeatSpeechDemo/FliteController+NeatSpeech.h>and replace this:
Slt *slt;with this:
Emma *emma;and replace this:
@property (strong, nonatomic) Slt *slt;with this:
@property (strong, nonatomic) Emma *emma;in your implementation, replace this:
@synthesize slt;with this:
@synthesize emma;and replace this:
- (Slt *)slt { if (slt == nil) { slt = [[Slt alloc] init]; } return slt; }with this:
- (Emma *)emma { if (emma == nil) { emma = [[Emma alloc]initWithPitch:0.0 speed:0.0 transform:0.0]; } return emma; }and replace this:
[self.fliteController say:@"A short statement" withVoice:self.slt];with this:
[self.fliteController sayWithNeatSpeech:@"Alice was getting very tired of sitting beside her sister on the bank, and having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, and what is the use of a book, thought Alice, without pictures or conversations?" withVoice:self.emma];And replace any other calls to say:withVoice with sayWithNeatSpeech:withVoice: Once this is definitely working you can remove the Slt or other Flite voice frameworks from your app to reduce app size. You can replace references to the Emma framework and object with any of the other voices to try them out. The available voice frameworks you'll find in the Voices folder in the distribution are as follows: Emma (US English, female) EmmaAlternate (US English, female) William (US English, male) WilliamAlternate (US English, male) Beatrice (UK English, female) Elliott (UK English, make) Daniel (Castilian Spanish, male) Martina (Castilian Spanish, female) Mateo (Latin American Spanish, male) Valeria (Latin American Spanish, female) You can also change the speaking speed, pitch of the voice, and inflection of each voice using the voice's initializer arguments speed, pitch and transform respectively. As an example, to initialize the Emma voice with a higher pitch you could use the following initialization: Emma *emma = [[Emma alloc]initWithPitch:0.2 speed:0.0 transform:0.0]; Once you know how your project is to be configured you can remove the unused voices following these instructions in order to make your app binary size as small as possible. You can pass the sayWithNeatSpeech:withVoice: method as much data as you want at a time. It will process the speech in phases in the background and return it for playback once it is ready. This means that you should rarely experience long pauses while waiting for synthesis, even for very long paragraphs. Very long statements need to include pause indicators such as periods, exclamation points, question marks, commas, colons, semicolons, etc. To interrupt ongoing speech while it is in progress, send the message [self.fliteController stopSpeaking];. This will not interrupt speech instantaneously but halt it at the next available opportunity.
Using OpenEarsEventsObserver+SaveThatWave
#import <OpenEars/OpenEarsEventsObserver.h>Add the line
#import <SaveThatWaveDemo/OpenEarsEventsObserver+SaveThatWave.h>And after this OpenEarsEventsObserver delegate method you added when setting up your OpenEars app:
- (void) pocketSphinxContinuousSetupDidFail { }Just add the following extended delegate method:
- (void) wavWasSavedAtLocation:(NSString *)location { NSLog(@"WAV was saved at the path %@", location); }
Using SaveThatWaveController
#import <SaveThatWaveDemo/SaveThatWaveController.h>In the middle part where instance variables go:
SaveThatWaveController *saveThatWaveController;In the bottom part where class properties go:
@property (strong, nonatomic) SaveThatWaveController *saveThatWaveController;
@synthesize saveThatWaveController;Among the other methods of the class, add this lazy accessor method for confident memory management of the object:
- (SaveThatWaveController *)saveThatWaveController { if (saveThatWaveController == nil) { saveThatWaveController = [[SaveThatWaveController alloc] init]; } return saveThatWaveController; }and change this block of code:
- (PocketsphinxController *)pocketsphinxController { if (pocketsphinxController == nil) { pocketsphinxController = [[PocketsphinxController alloc] init]; } return pocketsphinxController; }to this:
- (PocketsphinxController *)pocketsphinxController { if (pocketsphinxController == nil) { pocketsphinxController = [[PocketsphinxController alloc] init]; pocketsphinxController.outputAudio = TRUE; // This setting is not necessary if you are only using SaveThatWave with RapidEars } return pocketsphinxController; }Alternately, if you only want to record speech and you don't want to perform local speech recognition on it, use the following settings instead:
- (PocketsphinxController *)pocketsphinxController { if (pocketsphinxController == nil) { pocketsphinxController = [[PocketsphinxController alloc] init]; pocketsphinxController.outputAudio = TRUE; // This setting is not necessary if you are only using SaveThatWave with RapidEars pocketsphinxController.processSpeechLocally = FALSE; // This shuts off offline speech recognition. } return pocketsphinxController; }Then, after this line for OpenEars:
[self.pocketsphinxController startListeningWithLanguageModelAtPath:lmPath dictionaryAtPath:dicPath acousticModelAtPath:[AcousticModel pathToModel:@"AcousticModelEnglish"] languageModelIsJSGF:NO];or this line for RapidEars:
[self.pocketsphinxController startRealtimeListeningWithLanguageModelAtPath:lmPath dictionaryAtPath:dicPath acousticModelAtPath:[AcousticModel pathToModel:@"AcousticModelEnglish"];You can add the line:
[self.saveThatWaveController start]; // For saving WAVs from OpenEarsor
[self.saveThatWaveController startForRapidEars]; // For saving WAVs from RapidEars

Brian Presley, Married Actor, Hits on Model; Melissa Stetten Live Tweets Adultery Attemptby Free Britney at . Comments
Tip for idiots looking to cheat on your wives: Make sure the model you hit on isn't posting every one of your douchebag comments LIVE for the world to read.
Actor Brian Presley, the star of Touchback, was humiliated on Twitter courtesy of model Melissa Stetten, who live Tweeted his attempt at adultery.
Apparently, Presley attempted to hit on Stetten during a red eye flight Wednesday, and she documented the whole thing, humiliating the actor.
It's both hilarious and sad on so many levels, considering that Brian Presley is a devout Christian married for 10 years with a kid, and is supposedly sober.
Stetten tweeted that he drank three Heinekens during the flight, of course, among many other choice details that don't exactly help Brian's reputation.
Considering Presley plays a star QB in Touchback (with Kurt Russell) the botched football reference is as appropriate as it is moronic. Brian? Not smart.
Some of Stetten's more choice tweets appear below ...
- "No thanks, Brian, the actor sitting next to me on this flight talking about his role with Kurt Russell and his spiritual beliefs."
- "Brian has a wedding ring. I ask how his wife is, and he says he just wears the ring because he likes it. Right, Brian."
- "Brian hates closed-minded people but loves artists in the industry, and just called this one-sided conversation a 'collabo.'"
- "Holy SHIT! Brian just came back from the bathroom without his wedding ring on! Watch out Virgin America, real charmer on board!"
- "Brian just said 'like us sitting here right now, talking about where we're from, it's like divine interception.' right, interception."
- "Did I just ruin Brian Presley's life via twitter?"
Yes, Melissa, we're afraid you did. But we'd say it was worth it. Effing Brian ...
UPDATE, 6/8: Brian has responded and denies this happened, claiming they met and talked but that's it. Follow the link for his side of the story.
As people have already mentioned, Stetten didn't even know who he was until someone sent her a link to his details, so it's likely that she's telling the truth (or at least the partial truth, if she's playing it up a little bit). It's unlikely that she'd straight out lie about something like this happening.
I've seen a couple of cases recently of women outing men in relationships that hit on other women or openly brag about sleeping with other women and chances are we won't ever know the full story but I think it's really sad that the women in this case are getting labelled as attention whores and bitches.
Don't be naive. If he took his ring off he's a dirtbag & I'm glad he was outed for all he world to see(especially his wife)
I believe her. See how society is so fucked up ? She's telling the truth but she's the attention whore. And we think he's telling the truth because... Wait for it... He's a man... Lol you guys are funny... Listen we will never know the whole story. But I'm pretty sure his wife knows EXACTLY who she married... Let's see if she's smart and makes him pay. I'm sorry but if more women stuck together like this, guess who wouldn't be cheating because the pleasure wouldn't be worth the risk??
Wow. Man slut hits on attention whore. Sounds like issues on both sides here!
Just remember...there is her side, his side...then more often than not, the truth is somewhere in the middle. I personally have complimented women on their looks, appearance, maybe the scent of their perfume, and that was all it was...a compliment. But there are those women out there that are so full of themselves, that they think every compliment is a "come on"...
How can we support other women we we don't know the truth.This guy is innocent until proven guilty. I've had married men hit on me.Yet her motives are questionable.
i agree with fred when did they start letting people tweet on airplanes?
Yes, it is sad for his wife to find out in this way but I think it's about time that we women stick together when husbands so willingly offer themselves to other women. Wives need to know for sure when their husbands are cheating. Then they can make an informed decision as to whether to stay with the loser.
She's not all that. He's hot! Lucky wife! I bet she was offended cause she didn't hit on. Now she"s getting all this media attention!
Who cares about him being Christian? Oh,I forgot the men and women of other belief systems are perfect. They don't have to cheat! The men can have as many wives as they can afford and treat them All like crap or with other religions you can do what you want. It's OK. How about the women? They can only have ONE husband and be on rotation for sex. As a woman you can forget that! Most true Christian believers don't cheat. Jesus was perfect One! the rest of us need His love and guidence.

November 27, 2014
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) -- The arguments over a state budget are escalating again, with Governor Rod Blagojevich suing the speaker of the Illinois House.
Blagojevich is angry that Speaker Michael Madigan has defied his proclamations requiring the Legislature to meet in special session.
In some cases, Madigan has told lawmakers not to bother showing up. He has also convened sessions at different times of day than Blagojevich had ordered.
Blagojevich announced Monday that he filed suit against his fellow Democrat last week in Sangamon County court.
He wants Madigan to hold sessions at specific times and require members to attend. A state budget has passed, but Blagojevich says other related issues still require attention.
Legislators argue the special sessions are just for show. They note the governor usually doesn't submit proposals for lawmakers to consider.

How to make my chocolate chip cookie recipe more healthy
- n
- nomnomTX85 Sep 8, 2009 02:17 PM
Hello All,
This is my go to recipe for classic chocolate chip cookies. Its the Nestle Toll House recipe with some modifications (I use margarine instead of butter because the cookies stay soft afterward). Does anyone have any advice on how to make this more healthy (maybe whole wheat flour?) without changing the taste too much? Or maybe have a better chocolate chip cookie recipe? The only thing I won't do is sugar substitutes...
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 sticks margarine
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3/4 a bag of semi sweet chocolate chips
Swap out the margarine for either apple sauce and/or sour cream.
Instead of using whole eggs substitute with egg whites (2:1 ratio)
You can reduce the amount of chocolate chips that you use by adding some cocoa powder into the cookie dough
Whole wheat flour does not make for good cookies ...
re: ipsedixit
ips I love using applesauce as a substitute; often keeps things moist and chewy!
However, I did use 1 cup whole wheat flour and 1 cup white for these and it turned out really well. I have also used whole wheat in oatmeal raisin cookies and it was great! I think it depends on the type of cookie you're trying to make-and often mixing it with white works well.
Use all "white whole wheat" flour, or half AP and half regular whole wheat. The former (sold by King Arthur and in most supermarkets) does not have the strong taste of regular whole wheat. Many people think butter is healthier than margarine or shortening. Using all brown sugar will keep the cookies softer than in the original recipe. Baking powder instead of baking soda will also keep them puffier. 2 to 2-1/4 tsp should do it.
- lose the margarine. use butter instead, and replace half of it with mashed banana, applesauce, or fat free yogurt.
- as ipse said, substitute egg whites for the whole eggs (or use one whole egg and replace the other with 2 whites).
- as greygarious said, use all brown sugar. and i'll add that you should cut back on the sugar - most cookie recipes contain much more than necessary. use about 1 cup of brown sugar and omit the white.
- at least half of the flour should be whole grain. as greygarious said, white whole wheat is a good option. you can also try substituting barley or buckwheat flour for half the AP flour.
- use mini chocolate chips instead of the large ones, and cut down the amount by at least one-third (i'd be inclined to do half). you'll still get plenty of chocolate in the cookies, just in smaller bits.
Use ground flax seed and water instead of the eggs. 1 Tbsp ground flax seed & 3 Tbsp warm water = 1 egg. Consider substituting freshly ground quinoa (and/or millet or brown rice or buckwheat) flour for some or all of the all-purpose flour. If you replace all the flour you'll need to add 1 tsp of xanthan gum as well.
Thanks very much for asking about this, I use the same recipe and had the same question! I actually did as the folks here recommended-except I used 1/2 stick butter, 1/2 of one ripe banana, 1/2 teaspoon salt, one flax egg and one real egg, one cup of brown sugar, and one cup of wheat flour with one cup white flour (no more flour than that). I kept all other ingredients the same--but I put one Hershey's Special Dark kiss on top of each instead of regular chocolate chips. They took less time to bake, but had a similar consistency and were really flavorful! It's still more sugar than I'd like, but it's definitely better than the alternative. :)
I'm not so sure swapping sugars or grains does anything concrete for the healthfulness of the cookie and it probably ruins a good cookie. Unless eaten by the pound how much difference can it make?
And who is to say what's more healthful? Sour cream is better than margarine? How does one determine that?
re: sal_acid
I'm with you. There are curtains foods/recipes that I love which were not improved by me trying to make reductions in fat, salt, sugar or whatever is deemed "unhealthy" or improved with increases in fiber, whole grains, agave, or what is currently deemed "healthy". In thoses cases I prefer eat the real thing.
Different cookie, but this is a very popular CC cookie made with whole wheat flour from Kim Boyce:
re: emily
I second this recommendation. Very good recipe, though it is not as good on subsequent days in my experience. Make and eat fresh.
My other thought would be that margarine is actually *less* healthy than butter due to unnatural fats, but I guess that depends on what's in your margarine.
I also use the same recipe, BUT I use the real butter, and I use just one stick of it. Also I Completely Melt it, and it's perfect!! And not greasy. Sometimes I use a little water to make the dough fully come together. Also sometimes I add ground flax to the dough.
If the margarine is not creamed there's no reason to use that rather than oil. If it is creamed (the step of creaming crystal things into solid fats is done to introduce air bubbles into the batter which aid the rising and result in a lighter baked good) I would probably still replace it with oil because I avoid margarine but you could experiment with replacing it with some combination of butter and oil to get the benefit of the better rise and the softness.
There's no significant nutritional benefit to swapping out the white sugar for brown http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/12/hea...
If you want to reduce the sugar content be aware that sugar has more of a purpose than just making the cookies sweet http://joyofbaking.com/sugar.html
I made some cookies recently where I halved the sugar without replacing it with anything and I found the result acceptable (in terms of moistness and shelf life etc.), so I wouldn't worry too much about ruining the cookies, just be aware of the the functions of the ingredients so that you can figure out why something may have turned out the way it did and how you might correct problems.
re: ecclescake
I usually eat Chocolate Chip cookies dipped in low fat milk-maybe it isn't any healthier but then again maybe it is!

I'm looking for an after market barrel for a Glock 29 that's longer then a standard barrel but not ported. I know KKM used to sell them but its been a while and their web-site says nothing about it. Anyone know of a barrel maker who can produce one?

Thanks canebrake. I do love Bar-Sto barrels and have a couple in 1911s but by the time you pay the price and have them fitted you almost double the price of the Mod 29. I'm hoping someone knows of a quality drop-in.

T-Mobile announces 7 inch SpringBoard and Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1
Summary: T-Mobile USA announced two new Android Honeycomb tablets with the SpringBoard and Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. I think they will continue to fill a niche market, unless the SpringBoard is priced to sell.
Even though the Apple iPad continues to rule the tablet market, manufacturers and carriers continue to release Android Honeycomb tablets. Tonight T-Mobile USA announced the 7 inch SpringBoard from Huawei and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, both with HSPA+ radios. There is no pricing information available yet and the only availability information given is that they will be available in time for the holidays.
T-Mobile has sold the 7 inch Samsung Galaxy Tab, the G-Slate, and the lame Dell Streak in the past. These two new tablets come preloaded with Honeycomb and after using a WiFi Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 for the past week I am still not sold on this tablet operating system that I still believe has several areas for improvement and lots of room for application growth.
The T-Mobile SpringBoard is advertised as an affordable tablet so I imagine it will come in at less than $199.99, but we don't have any information on pricing yet. It has a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, 7 inch display, SD card slot, 5 megapixel rear camera and 1.3 megapixel front facing camera. The SpringBoard comes with BlockBuster on Demand, T-Mobile TV, Netflix, and even TeleNav GPS Navigator software so it can be your media consumption device and large screen GPS navigation device.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is a large tablet that is also very thin and light. It is much more of a home tablet than something you want to be out and about with due to the large size. The Galaxy Tab 10.1 comes preinstalled with T-Mobile TV, Samsung Media Hub, games, and media reading applications and it is definitely targeted as a super web browsing and media consumption device.

- Excellent on all frontskjsssabDined on 11/9/2014This was my first time to Aristo's as I was told about it through a friend. Very clean and fresh. Nice and quiet. Service was very good. The food was off the chart! I will recommend this place to all my friends.Special Features:
- Greek TreasureFoodJunkie59Dined on 11/7/2014The food was traditional Greek fare with a modern spin. The menu hits all the right spots at a very good price point. The portions were perfect and the staff were brilliant. Highly recommended.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- As good as usualsheff511Dined on 10/28/2014We received typically quick, attentive service and the food was up to its usual high standards. We will go again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- TapasSkifanDined on 10/27/2014Great selection of tapas. Easy to make a whole meal of tapas hereSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Aristos Oct 27 2014Oct272014Dined on 10/27/2014Server explained menu extremely well. Unusual, for Salt Lake City, items on the menu. Excellent octopus dish. This is definitely a Salt Lake City gem.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great SelectionscazdrawDined on 10/25/2014Everyone at our table ordered something different. We were all wowed by the by the quality and presentation of our dinners. We all thought this was a great place for dinner and plan to return soon.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved the lunch service!MsNatsDined on 10/21/2014A small group met for our 14th wedding anniversary. The service was exemplary.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ENjoyed the varietyOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/18/2014Options, options and more options on dishes and combining choices. Great approach to introducing dishes.Special Features:
- Excellent GreekLVRobVIPDined on 10/9/2014Aristo's is a real neighborhood gem. We had some of the best and unique and contemporary Greek food. Sure there are the traditional favorites, too. Aristo's is definitely worth going out of the way to dine. It's near the University of Utah and I highly recommend it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious restaurantOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 9/29/2014Our meal there was very good especially the lamb ribs. We had many of the small plates and enjoyed everything.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dependable deliciousnessCarolVIPDined on 9/22/2014I dined outside with two girlfriends the other night at Aristo's. We were taking advantage of the lovely fall weather. We shared a number of small plates- Greek salad, trio of spreads, zucchini chips, moussaka and meat skewers. Everything was so good- and plenty of food for the 3 of us! We've been there several time and always enjoy it, but it was extra-special this time because our waiter was so great. He was very knowledgeable about all the offerings, attentive without being annoying, and just generally very friendly and interested in our having a great experience-- which we did! I'm not 100% sure of his name, but think I recall "Taylor" on his name tag.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The Food Could Be BetterSLCFoodie1Dined on 9/19/2014Aristo's sets high expectations, but the food is just so-so. We ordered a number of dishes recommended by our server and found most of them to be overcooked (and mushy) or undercooked (our potatoes were raw in the middle). Flavors were not as vibrant as I would have expected. The server was nice and apologetic and was kind enough to remove the potatoes from our bill. He said the kitchen was "slammed" but the restaurant was not full. Aristo's has a great outdoor patio and the staff is friendly. For a restaurant that claims to be in the "Top 100 Greek Restaurants" in the country, the food simply doesn't live up to the expectation.Special Features:
- Came 4 anniversary, will come againTheEssenceOfEtropyDined on 9/13/2014The servers here were very considerate of my date and I. We were able to be seated promptly and was given a great spot. Our waiter kept my water filled which in itself is quite a task given how fast I drink. The food was absolutely delicious and every item we had we never had before; it was a great experience to try something new. My date especially loved the lamb, and the kafteri is hands-down my favorite pita dip. The meze plates were small but the meal was still quite satiating; quality over quantity. We got to enjoy the taste of the food rather than just horking down loads of semi-flavored eatings. I loved how desserts were presented, absolutely ingenious! Not on the menu, but at the end we got to see and select them from a small plateSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Forgot Birthday...lovetodine3Dined on 9/10/2014Went to Aristo's, party of four for lunch. My chicken kabob was a little dry and they forgot it was my friend's Birthday, that was a big disappointment. I wrote on the reservation it was Lizzy's Birthday.......how can they forget that?Special Features:
- MediocrelishDined on 9/2/2014When we got there we had to wait to be seated. The staff wasn't friendly. We had to wait 5 min for our server to even greet us. We ordered our food as soon as she came. We once again found ourselves waiting for our water. The ONLY thing that made up for the lack of service was the fact that the food was delicious and came out quickly. I am a waitress myself and I know if can be busy at times, but we weren't the only table with an issue. All of the tables in our section had to hunt down or wait for the waitress to bring silverware. The waitress brought our check and we never saw her again. Luckily I paid with cash so we could leave. Hopefully the staff doesn't ruin it for this yummy little restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great service and quality foodBestGreekeverDined on 9/1/2014The food is always amazing. My favorite is the lamb shank and the kotopoulo. Every person that I have brought to this restaurant has always been amazed. Out sever, Hannah, was friendly, on point, and she didn't rush us.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Greek GemJim1VIPDined on 8/29/2014This dining experience is probably one of the best ones we've had in Salt Lake City. The Greek food was authentic, creative and outstanding. Aristo, the owner visits just about all of the diners with welcoming and authentic conversation. There's nothing phony.Special Features:
- In a word, Excellent!dinerdevoDined on 8/28/2014My family and guests had an enjoyable time visiting over dinner. The food was very good and the surroundings very nice and clean. All of which added to a wonderful time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Disappointing dinner at Aristo'sWillieDined on 8/27/2014Server was nice, but had very little knowledge about the wines. Overall the food was mediocre. The best dish was the Taramosalata, very good. The Roka salad was also very good. The server overestimated how much we could eat and as a result to over ordered. The Gyro meats, lamb and chicken were dry. The lemon rice had very little flavor and the octopus was like eating rubber. Aristo's has received very high marks and that is why we chose to dine there. Perhaps it was an off night in the kitchen. They need to do a much better job of training their servers. This is a management issue and the server cannot take the full blame for lack of knowledge. Next time in Salt Lake City we will skip Aristo's.
- Always enjoyablesmpjrkVIPDined on 8/15/2014Aristo's never disappoints. Great Greek food combined with Mediterranean hospitalitySpecial Features:
- Aristo's went down hillserenaDined on 8/9/2014The food had no flavor and my chicken was raw. The server didn't apologize, but after waiting 25 minutes for my cooked bland chicken I was given a complimentary baklava, which I can't eat due to celiacs. The server was sparse and barely talked. There were flies swarming around and it was pretty distracting. The Greek salad with chicken that I usually get had huge clunky pieces of cucumber and was swimming in dressing. The past two times I've been it was amazing. Very disappointing and I won't be back any time soon. I noticed a lot of other people waiting to order and swatting flies as well.
- serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 8/9/2014The service was poor. Our waitress was not very attentive and gave us attitude. The service was also very slow. The food was good but based on service alone I will not be back.
- When going to an event...IMtheBWDDined on 8/9/2014Just a fabulous place to dine, especially when going to going to an event at Kingsbury Hall. Food was excellent, service superb.Special Features:
- The following 339 reviews are from the Aristo's reviews archive.
- Great food, service not so great.irisheyesDined on 7/26/2014my friend tonight arrived on time for our reservation, but after we were seated no 1 came to say hello or take a drink order for 25 minutes. We finally had to flag down someone to get some help. The food was amazingly good but 12 dollars For one octopus tentacle was beyond pricey, even though it was prepared to perfection. The spanakopita was delicious and the lemon phyllo dessert was outstanding.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Portion controlJojoDined on 7/26/2014On one hand the presentation is above average; if you're hungry you may find the portions wanting. Little aside: not a fan of restaurants with one bathroom. Code may say it's ok, but this place is too large for it and I finally gave up when whomever was in there decided to make a nestSpecial Features:
- very balancedOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 7/25/2014Aristo's is a wonderful place for a summer evening dinner. Great food and a relaxed pace makes it a go to place in SLC.Special Features:
- Best Greek and one of the bestJimKVIPDined on 7/23/2014We have eaten in restaurants around the world and many throughout the US including 5-6 Five Star and several Michelin 3 Star...this is the best Greek restaurant we have enjoyed and one of the best of all restaurants. Fun menu with lots of options (besides lamb) in all areas. Fine dinning but fun options. Excellent service and very nice facility. Sidewalk tables.Special Features:
- Great Greek in Salt LakeJbyrne37Dined on 7/6/2014We were in town for one night and wanted a nice sit down dinner with outdoor dining. I found Aristos online and noticed they had been on Food Network. We drove up and liked the look of the place so we decided to try it. Very happy we did, the waitress was attentive, helpful and very nice. The front patio provided a great place to eat in the shade and people watch while we ate. The food was amazing. We started with three different dips and the Kafteri was crazy good. I had the Myzithra Pasta, although I would have liked more Myzithra the past was flavorful and fresh. My wife had the greek salad and my kids had the lamb chops and the "gyro flight", which was three small gyros. We all shared and everybody was very happy with their food.Special Features:
- Good food poor service poor layoutMoboDined on 6/27/2014Good reviews online but they were deceptive. Food was very good but the service was horrible. Low spots include: table with air con vent blowing right on us. Asked 4 times to have it turned off. Order handled by 2 different waitpersons and of course it got messed up. Appetizers arrived missing one. Main course food arrived cold and with no plates and no clean silver. Double charged item on bill (the appetizer that we had to request twice). Servers seemed inexperienced and overworked. Not coming back.
- Fantastic food, but pricey.SboogieDined on 6/18/2014My husband and I were in town for a visit and so we did some research on local food spots. Aristo came up as an option, and since we love Greek food, we thought we'd give it a shot. Overall, we loved our dining experience! Our waiter was attentive and very friendly. The food was superb! From the calamari and dolmathes as starters to the Greek salad and lamb tacos as mains. The *only* negative thing about our experience was that for the price you are paying (which is above average), the quantity of food is quite small. And I'm not sure id say Aristo is fine dining either (this would make more sense) given how casually the patrons were dressed. Nonetheless, if you don't mind splurging a little, it's worth checking out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A taste of Greece in Salt Lake CityHauteCuisineVIPDined on 6/18/2014Aristo doesn't incredible job of making each guest feel like a VIP. The variety of small plates, Mezethes, allow the guest to sample a variety of excellent Greek dishes. Live Greek music and outdoor dining on Thursday nights during the summer should not be missed. As a native-born Greek, I highly recommend this restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Real Greek FoodlimarantoDined on 6/10/2014This is probably the only restaurant in UT that serves authentic Greek food. The menu was delightful and the service was great. Guests can enjoy Tapas (small plates) or entree size plates. The atmosphere is vibrant, clean, and bright. This restaurant is a top choice and great find!Special Features:
- Love aristo's!AndiVIPDined on 5/30/2014It can get a bit loud inside, but this is probably the best Greek food you will find in Salt Lake. And dining out on the patio is lovely on a summer eveningSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Maria GustafsonMiagusDined on 5/25/2014Simply put it is the best Greek food I have ever had.Special Features:
- Good Greek!ChantelBrennaDined on 5/22/2014I love Greek food, but have yet to find a really great sit-down Greek place in Salt Lake. Aristo's is just that. Really great food, a beautiful porch to sit and eat on, and just generally really nice. They have a lot of different price points for menu items, which was nice, but everything on the menu that my groups got was delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- LOVED THE FOODFOODIE4EVERDined on 5/21/2014This was our first time to Aristos and we will go back. The 4 of us ordered appetizers and small plates to share. All of the food was very good. If you like trying new things, this is the way to go. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable, but it took us 20 minutes to get our drinks and close to an hour for the food to arrive. It was hot, so it had not been sitting. We also had quite a wait for dessert and paying the check. We were nearly 2 hours from seating to signing the ticket. We will try it again, but will have to make sure we have enough time to allow for the slow service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- First time eaterOctoDined on 5/9/2014We wanted to try something new, that usually ends up in a disappointing experience but not this time. The food was fantastic, the service was great and the drinks were plenty. The octopus was the best but everything else I would have again. There was so much to choose from and everything sounded good. I will definitely be going back.Special Features:

- Aristo'sMissTDined on 4/26/2014Nice ambiance. Fantastic service. We ordered the dip sampler (hummus, tzaziki, and melizanosalata) which also came with olives and pita, for the small plates, we ordered Moussaka (eggplant), Oxtapodi (octopus), Mithia Ouzo (mussels), and the Kolokithakia (zucchini). They were all good, but by far the best of these was the Mithia Ouzo - the mussels are tender and sweet and the sauce is outstanding. And the Moussaka is amazing. I will order both of these again. Had the Kokkinisto (lamb shank) for the entree; not what I expected. Flavor was on but I expect 'fall off the bone' tenderness from a shank. Somewhat disappointed in the entree. Overall, a nice place, I look forward to returning to sample some more dishes.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
