Start Relief Projection Toy for Microsoft Excel
This should be self-explanatory. Anything that I think could be confusing to someone who is not familiar with the way I make spreadsheets (like people that aren't me), I made a little note inside the file. The file can be found here.

Braden Looper is estimated to go 11-9 with a 4.12 ERA.
Gagne '03 is estimated at 18-3 with 234 K's; was injury the only reason he became a reliever?
was injury the only reason he became a reliever?3. Dr. Vaux Posted: January 09, 2007 at 05:09 AM (#2276641)
The switch to relief wasn't due to injury.
He was coming off a disappointing season as a starter, was a bit homer-prone, and had trouble locating his offspeed stuff in the strike zone in the starts I saw (which is related to point 2), IIRC. Of course, he also picked up a fair bit of velocity from the switch.
Even a 4.50 ERA from Looper in any reasonable number of innings would be a godsend for the Cardinals. If they know what's good for them, they at least won't let Ryan Madson keep Wainwright out of the rotation.4. flournoy Posted: January 09, 2007 at 05:39 PM (#2276810)
2002 Chris Hammond would have gone 154-8 if he'd been allowed to throw 1964 innings. Damn, why didn't the Braves think of that.5. Kyle S Posted: January 09, 2007 at 08:14 PM (#2276915)
Dan, I have excel 2003 at work and it doesn't know what MROUND is. is that a function you have to install or something?6. AROM Posted: January 09, 2007 at 08:48 PM (#2276966)
That's cool. I'll give that I try. First time I saw the error I just changed it to a regular round function.7. Dan Szymborski Posted: January 09, 2007 at 09:13 PM (#2277011)
I am master of excel VB macros but I still haven't bothered to figure out VLookup. One of these days.
VLOOKUP is really cool - if you have my MLE spreadsheet, you'll see a lot of it. I love having park effects all listed on another sheet and having all the park factors looked up on other pages as I need them.8. Kyle S Posted: January 09, 2007 at 09:34 PM (#2277043)
AROM, vlookup takes about 15 minutes to figure out. The important thing to remember is the lookup list has to be sorted alphabetically - if you don't remember that, you'll spend hours scratching your head wondering at some of the results your functions give you.9. Jeff Miller Posted: January 09, 2007 at 10:14 PM (#2277100)
Not if you end the VLOOKUP function with (,FALSE). That should take care of the alphabetizing problem. You can also use INDEX(MATCH()) if you take a few minutes to figure it out. It's actually a lot more powerful than VLOOKUP.10. AROM Posted: January 09, 2007 at 10:22 PM (#2277114)
I've been using just the regular lookup function in excel, so I'm used to keeping my lookup lists rounded.11. AROM Posted: January 09, 2007 at 10:23 PM (#2277115)
Problem with regular lookup lists is if the value you're looking for isn't in the table, you'll get data from the next row.
doh. rounded = alphabetized.12. Jeff Miller Posted: January 09, 2007 at 11:13 PM (#2277162)
Just put ,FALSE at the end of the command and it will only take exact matches13. Kyle S Posted: January 09, 2007 at 11:44 PM (#2277192)
good to know. thanks jeff.14. AROM Posted: January 10, 2007 at 12:09 AM (#2277217)
I just printed out Vlookup from help and read it on the train home.15. CoastalFan Posted: January 10, 2007 at 08:24 AM (#2277466)
Thanks, guys, I can use this. I don't like getting the N/A value when I don't have an exact match, but I see this can be solved with an IF function.
Wow? Did anyone else hear that loud whooshing sound? I think it was the sound of that whole conversation going right over my head - lol....
I have to go brush up on my Excel skills now - great tool, Dan!

Originally I thought I wasn't going to be able to relate to the story, but I was wrong. I was completed transported while viewing. I liked the fact that it was a one woman show - Imagining the other characters gave your mind something to play with. The sound of the last song was impressive & mesmerizing - Very hard to believe it wasn't amplified. Joy did a great job on all fronts. I enjoyed it immensely.

Half a century ago, the legendary journalist Edward R. Murrow came to this pancake-flat town in central New Jersey to document the plight of migrant farmworkers for a television special called "Harvest of Shame."
Today, many of Cranbury's potato fields have been built up with giant warehouses that form a distribution hub off Exit 8A of the Jersey Turnpike.
But amid this 21st century system of commerce, an old way of labor persists. Temporary workers make a daily migration on buses to this area, just as farmworkers did for every harvest in the 1960s. Temp workers today face many similar conditions in how they get hired, how they live and what they can afford to eat. Adjusted for inflation, many of today's temp workers earn roughly the same amount as those farmworkers did 50 years ago.
Across the country, farms full of migrant workers have been replaced with warehouses full of temp workers, as American consumers depend more on foreign products, online shopping and just-in-time delivery. It is a story that begins at the ports of Los Angeles and Newark, N.J., follows the railroads to Chicago and ends at your neighborhood box store, or your doorstep.
The temp industry now employs 2.8 million workers - the highest number and highest proportion of the American workforce in history. As the economy continues to recover from the Great Recession, temp work has grown nine times faster than private-sector employment as a whole. Overall, nearly one-sixth of the total job growth since the recession ended has been in the temp sector.
Many temps work for months or years packing and assembling products for some of the world's largest companies, including Walmart, Amazon and Nestle. They make our frozen pizzas, cut our vegetables and sort the recycling from our trash. They unload clothing and toys made overseas and pack them to fill our store shelves.

Citizens Help Apprehend Fleeing Drug Smuggler
Posted: 4/29/2013 12:00 AM
PINAL COUNTY, Ariz. – On April 16th, 2013 at 2:05 p.m., a Pinal County Sheriff's deputy traveling on Highway 84 observed two vehicles driving in tandem at a high rate of speed. The proximity of the vehicles traveling at highway speeds was dangerous and the deputy proceeded to initiate a traffic stop.
One of the vehicles, a blue Chevy Trailblazer, proceeded to flee. The deputy pursued the vehicle that accelerated to 80-miles-per-hour as he traveled onto Russell Road. The suspect attempted to pass a citizen on the dirt portion of Russell Road which caused him to lose control of his vehicle. The vehicle spun into a ditch which kicked up a cloud of dust that obstructed the view of the pursuing deputy. When the dust settled the deputy saw a male fleeing from the vehicle on foot. The deputy stopped his vehicle and began pursuing the suspect on foot in the direction of a cotton gin. Several workers inside the cotton gin had exited the business and witnessed the man fleeing from the deputy.
The employees of the cotton gin began chasing the approaching suspect and assisted in detaining the subject until the deputy was able to handcuff the man. After the deputy escorted the suspect back to the patrol car, he cleared the suspect's vehicle to make sure no one else was inside. The deputy observed a black towel covering large bundles of marijuana in the front passenger seat of the vehicle. The deputy continued to clear the vehicle and found additional bundles in the back of the vehicle. A total of 27 bundles were discovered in the vehicle with a weight of 567 pounds. The street value of the marijuana is estimated at $400,000.
The driver of the vehicle was identified as Juan Ricardo Hernandez Mendivil, 24-years-old, from Mexico. He was arrested and booked into the Pinal County Adult Detention Center on charges of Possession of Marijuana for Sale, Transportation of Marijuana and Unlawful Flight.
Sheriff Paul Babeu said, "
Mendivil showed he has no regard for the safety of other drivers on the roadway. This is another example of the types of incidents our Pinal County families are forced to live with as a result of an unsecured border. While this current administration says those who enter into the United States from Mexico are only coming for a better life, these cases are a constant reminder that is not true and why we need to secure our southern border

Best Things I Ate Last Month: May 2011 edition
- pane Jun 6, 2011 08:58 AM
Hamburger at Citizen's Band
Great meat (and not too thick) cooked medium rare, nice bun from Pinkie's, house-made pickles added as a layer under the patty deliver a crunchy, dill punch. Knock out.
Josey Baker walnut levain
Sick. I got two loaves for a party at my house, and served a couple just sliced up, others as a bruchette with homemade ricotta and blistered cherry tomatoes. I thought there would be leftovers to make tartines in the a.m.; I thought wrong.
Abalone with burdock root and salsify dish at Sons & Daughters
I didn't love much else that I tried here, but this was delicious and memorable. The texture of the abalone was lovely, and the castleveltrano olives pinged nicely against the other flavors on the plate.
B-A-N-A-N-A-S waffle at Starstream's Saturday-only waffle fest
A dense waffle with sparkly caramelized turbinado, house-made ganache, "torched" banana and creme fraiche. I look forward to eating this again very soon.

re: Ruth Lafler
That chocolate bar is out of this world, seriously. I had a chocolate bar like it that I got in Paris (that is like, only sold at one chocolate store in Paris and then in Normandy), and have been mourning that bar for a year. This TJ's one isn't quite as good, but it's up there.
re: JasmineG
Vosges makes a very similar bar -- I'd be interested to do a side-by-side comparison because they are very close (expect the Vosges is three-four times the price (depending on where you buy it) and not widely available). http://www.vosgeschocolate.com/produc...
Just in the baked goods realm: the Kouig Amans (couldn't eat just one) made by Starter Bakery; the asparagus foccaccia, made with salty cheese and a generous sprinking of red pepper flakes at Acme/Ferry Building; Della Fattoria's pan integrale, with a nearly burnt crust from the wood burning oven, a tender interior and just the right amount of salt in it.
Also been hooked on the pistachio/almond nougat sold at the kiosk across from Out the Door in the Ferry Building.

Five things come to mind this month:
multiple flavors from Mr. and Mrs. Miscelaneous especially Pink Squirrel and Candied Violet
Moylan's Imperial Stout @ The Public house-I've never tasted such an unusual and complex beer-Ever.
The Mac and Cheese in the press dining room of the SF Giants-just like mom used to make (if my mom was a mac and cheese maker) classic cheesey, melty gooey goodness.
nd finally two from the home front:
Grilled whole salmon bought from the Pillar Point docks
26 finally fresh caught abalone from the waters around Sea Ranch, dusted in seasoned flour, sauteed and then dressed with a squeeze of lemon. god bless my hunting, fishing, diving BIL.
re: artychokeasana
Is that #26 on your list or 26 abalone, possibly over limit.
re: 10foot5
Speaking of sandwiches, the fried fish sandwich that I had at Wood Tavern in May definitely goes on my list. The Wood Tavern/Southie crew sure know how to make great sandwiches.

Drivers cutting back into traffic could face fine
Published On: Sep 20 2013 11:15:00 PM EDT
It's a problem all of South Florida sees every single day, but now, instead of just being bugged, Local 10 Investigates has the official buzz on how to handle it.
South Floridians know what it's like to drive around, be backed up and to later have someone race around and cut back in.
But you probably didn't know it's highly illegal and the ticket is nearly $200.
The good news is, it's what's bugging police, too.
Police told Local 10 Investigates the legal way to stop all of this is to safely close the gap with the car in front of you, and not let anyone cut in.
Police said drivers have the right of way in this situation. Safely enforcing that right will stop you from being bugged.

Now that we're past the midyear of 2014, it's a great time to review your retirement savings plan to make sure you're on track. If you're not contributing enough or haven't rebalanced your portfolio since George W. Bush was in office, you have the remainder of the year to make some adjustments.

After years of debate, the Securities and Exchange Commission this week finally adopted new rules designed to shore up the stability of the $2.6 trillion money market industry. The question now is, will it help? While the changes largely affect institutional investors, one provision also applies to small investors by temporarily restricting their access to their money if a fund has liquidity problems. For decades money market funds were seen as reliably boring, investing in government securities or high-grade corporate debt. Though the funds' …

States have divided almost evenly on whether to expand Medicaid to millions more low-income Americans, many of them uninsured. Many Republican governors or state legislatures have rejected expansion, saying that although the federal government will pick up most of the tab now, states could be left on the hook in the future.

Americans are way short in their retirement savings, and President Obama's MyRA plan, which he unveiled last week, isn't the only new proposal that aims to help with that problem. Sens. Susan Collins, R-Maine, and Bill Nelson, D-Fla., also offered a savings plan. Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, has one of his own, which follows a report he released last summer. Of these three proposals, Harkin's is the most ambitious. His Universal, Secure and Adaptable (USA) Retirement Funds would create a …

A day after President Barack Obama gave the go-ahead for the Treasury Department to create a "starter" savings account, experts are weighing whether it will be worthwhile or just another ignored investment tool. Critics note, for instance, that the so-called myRA will do little to overcome the huge shortfall in retirement savings among so many workers. The conservatively invested accounts, though they won't lose money, won't make much of a return, either. And the myRA is voluntary, so it's unclear …

In New Eden My Heart Goes "Boum!" July 29, 2012Posted by Wilhelm Arcturus in entertainment, EVE Online, YouTube.
Tags: Boum!, Charles Trenet, Television, The 1970s, World at War
Another video experiment.
Direct link here. Probably best viewed on the YouTube site in a larger format.
When I found the song, "Boum!" by Charles Trenet on on iTunes, I knew I had to try to recreate the scene from the "France Falls" episode of World at War which features the song. (On come now, somebody must know what I am talking about.)
I actually bought the whole World at War 30th Anniversary sound track. I wonder if there is something else I can make out of it.
This little project was helped along immensely by the fact that I have been trying to grind some rep with an alt recently. But more on that later.
- 1. bhagpuss - July 29, 2012
That was wonderful! Brilliantly edited and I always loved that song. First Eve video I have ever watched that made me think "Hmmm – maybe…"
- 2. Crash69 - July 30, 2012
Very nice! Would never have imagined that particular song as background music for a video like this. Well done!

Well done sir!

Pingback: Tweets that mention John Cole Cartoons » Boom, or a "pop?" -- Topsy.com
Charles Orloski, Taylor, Pa
How routine is this 'Toon.
A question: How often does LOCAL employment, tax revenue, & environmental protection really ever win the day when big-time revenue opportunities are at stake?
Paul Chrastina
You know, I continually hear liberals use the phrase, "You've got to look at the bigger picture".
Applying that advice to John Cole and many others (Charles?), should we not do all that is necessary to reduce our dependence on foreign energy sources ? Drill, baby, DRILL !
It's really unfortunate that many farmers and their families will benefit financially from the leasing of their land because we all know that farmers and their families are ALL extremely wealthy capitalists who have more than enough material possessions. Right ??
Yes, the Drilling Companies should be required to do the job in a responsible manner–no question–, but to pillory them for providing a much needed service is a bit silly.
Charles Orloski, Taylor, Pa
Since the dawn of the Global Economy, the argument for reducing OUR dependence on foreign energy sources is being smothered by reality.
Q: Where does the majority of Alaskan oil go?
The big oil & gas companies reign supreme and they will get their product (a.k.a., The Big Prize) from anywhere and on their terms, and in some cases with the backing of U.S. military might. I doubt we will ever see the day we invade a nation (Tahiti?) for it's solar energy production capabilities.
Your third paragraph referencing jealousy for people cashing in on leasing land for gas & oil is petty. People are jealous if a neighbor puts on a house addition, buys an expensive dog. You know better, Paul.
The gas & oil (drilling) companies ARE indeed being tasked to do their job in a regulated, responsible manner. This is of course in contrast to similar activity being conducted elsewhere in the world, where there is no E.P.A., no OSHA laws. Eventually, local workers will gain employment, and finally, there are honest Americans sharing an environmental conscience who are in opposition to the drilling activity. I feel ALMOST all the gas & oil companies respect such human concerns about water & quality of life, but many know the flip-side of what happens to public opinion, drinking water concerns in places like Central Asia — Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan.
The only real battle now is how much tax revenue shall enter the State cash register. There are strong lobbies, pro & con. Tax revenues should not be the key working toward opening the door to the regeneration of Pennsylvania. I realize we are talking natural ga$ extraction & delivery, but taxation is one of the practices that drives business elsewhere. I support giving citizens financial breaks, cuts of the pie.
Paul Chrastina
Charles, what am I to do with you ?
Third Paragraph ?
My one and only love was raised on a dairy farm in South Canaan.
Though they always had enough food on the table, it wasn't until my wife, after getting a job, was able to provide them with INDOOR PLUMBING ! Hardly the wealthy capitalists, but no finer people ever to grace our planet !
We're agreed on the Companies trying to make the best decisions for their shareholders and also on the taxation issue.
You may laugh, but I heard a rumor that there is an invasion, planned by this administration, to plunder and pillage Holland, in order to capture the wind-mills and to help us with our energy problems ?
This was from a guy with a sobriquet of Peanuthead, or some such silly alias. Claims it came straight from the horse's, uh,__ whatever
Charles Orloski, Taylor, Pa
I admire your wife's effort & getting a job leading to indoor plumbing for the family. Should make all of us pause, reflect.
In addition — that is truly a funny-one about about wind-power & Holland invasion. People might consider this joke in contrast to current oil-field wars. Thank you.

text: Chris Christie Refuses to Give Opinion on Hobby Lobby Decision after Saying Politicians Shouldn't Dodge Questions Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 2 Jul 2014 post a comment On Tuesday, moments after Republican New Jersey Governor Chris Christie said politicians should not dodge questions, especially on social issues, he promptly refused to give his opinion on the Supreme Court's momentous 5-4 ruling in the Hobby Lobby case. The Supreme Court ruled on Monday that the federal government cannot, under Obamacare, force closely-held companies to pay for abortion-inducing pills--like Plan B--that go against the religious beliefs of the employers. Hobby Lobby did not object to paying for regular birth control pills or other types of contraception. On Squawk Box, after Christie mentioned that he was a pro-life governor of a blue state, he was asked what he thought of the ruling. "Who knows? Is the Supreme Court right?" Christie said, as NJ.com reported. "The fact is, when you're an executive, your Supreme Court makes a ruling, and you've got to live with it unless you can get the legislative body to change the law or change the Constitution." "The point is, why should I give an opinion as to whether they were right or wrong?" he continued. "At the end of the day, they did what they did. That's now the law of the land." As NJ.com also noted, Christie had said previously in the interview that "the Republican candidate should tell people what they feel on issues that people ask you about." "If you get asked a question, answer it," Christie asserted.

Rapid reviews
To browse other articles on a range of HSL topics, see the A-Z index.
Last Update
See also Evidence-based health care | Question scans | Horizon scans | Scoping reviews | Snowballing | Systematic narrative review methods
Rapid reviews (also rapid evidence reviews or rapid evidence assessments) are a type of accelerated systematic review that can be viewed, according to Khangura S et al, 2014, as part of a continuum of methodologies in assessing the evidence. In rapid reviews, you find common elements such as expert searching and the use of extended search techniques such as locating the grey literature. Rapid reviews are generally undertaken as evidence producers look at urgent (or emerging) needs (i.e., clinical urgency), new medical technologies and public policy. The RR is also critical in decision-making processes for politicians, public health policy experts and medical officials, who must use inclusive summaries of the evidence before they make their decisions.
The rapid review is a research methodology that uses shorter timeframes than for other evidence-based summaries. It provides a timely and valid view of evidence but sacrifices rigour. As such, RRs are both review and assessment, and respond to urgent clinical and public health-related questions. They aim to provide robust analyses of easily-retrievable evidence in less than six weeks (sometimes four weeks), typically requiring fewer resources and funding. Due to their rapid nature, the grey literature might not always be sought and preference may be given to the more readily available research published and written in English (introducing bias). In terms of methodology, rapid reviews follow most of the same principles of the systematic review but within a shorter time frame and in less detail. Some concessions are made in terms of methodological rigour in the rapid review. That said, RRs have their place in the field, and have gained favour in Canada, the United States and UK within the educational, government and policy sectors.
What is their value ?
According to the research, RRs are (re)appraisals of evidence that fall between health technology assessments (HTAs) and fully-developed systematic reviews. They are, in that sense, similar to scoping studies and question scans in the educational sector. RRs order the research similar to systematic reviews but meet shorter and urgent timelines, usually in two months or less. The prominence of evidence-based medicine and its principles have led some health organizations to develop more rapid methods for accessing, appraising and synthesizing evidence in health care. Typically this can be a slow and expensive process and should never be undertaken for issues that have been extensively written about or where the opposite is true: lack of convincing evidence. In any case, RRs may offer a suitable alternative to more systematic methods. One of the first steps is to find out what has been written and what is already known. Rigorous systematic review searching is needed for a range of academic and scientific disciplines. Health librarians and biomedical researchers should consider REA-type reviews to address the need to apply the evidence more quickly without the need to conduct a full systematic review.
Rapid 'cumulation' is critical
The knowledge economy has developed considerably in recent decades. However, the number of publishing outlets and ease of publishing in the digital era is responsible for information overload. The sheer amount of evidence available, coupled with the rapid growth of scholarly publishing and communication tools, makes it difficult and time-consuming to cumulate the literature. The problem of locating many separate and similar clinical studies has led to the creation of newer forms of knowledge management such as the rapid review. Despite the concerns expressed about its methodological shortcomings, the REA is widely-used in public policy and health technology assessment.
Health librarians' role in RRs
Reviewing evidence takes time and health librarians can use various techniques to help their clients. One of the key questions for health librarians is how to assist researchers in the process of planning and carrying out research, and whether rapid assessments meet their needs. This requires a range of skills, knowledge and abilities on the part of the attending health librarian, and includes topics as diverse as understanding the challenges of information retrieval in a fragmented literature and the trends associated with finding the grey literature.
See CADTH's suggested timelines for rapid reviews
RR components
To enhance an RR's transparency, documents can be designed and used to guide the process, such as:
Search strategies must be documented and used to guide searching in order to:
Search strategies identify the range of search approaches, terms and resources that were used. Searching generates a list of potentially relevant sources, from which researchers are able to focus on their own ideas and questions.
Elements of RRs
Usually a review of the academic, grey and practitioner literature includes the following five steps:
In addition, search the online and print literature as comprehensively as possible and do the following;

Lobster and vegan options North Jersey area
We are celebrating Mothers Day on Saturday night instead of Sunday. I would love to have real Maine lobster for Mothers Day. However, one daughter is vegan. We are willing to travel but do not want to go into the city. Any suggestions for a restaurant that has lobster, or other good seafood, and vegan options? We are near Paramus in Northern New Jersey.
I know friends who are vegan, hate the fact that often times all they are offered is a plate full of side dishes. With that being said, if Mom wants lobster, than maybe darling daughter should just take the high road, and make Mom feel extra special. Settle for the salad, and sorbet for dessert.
re: oceans
The only other thought I had is possibly an Asian restaurant. Many have live lobster tanks, and vegetarian menu items.
re: oceans
It probably goes without saying, but vegetable dishes at Asian restaurants aren't necessarily vegan. Add the (possible) language barrier, and your vegan guest may not be very pleased.
re: fourunder
This is a very good point and one to consider! Not very exciting vegan dishes though.
McLoones Boathouse in West Orange. Its very nice and they have lobster, check the menu.
Have you looked at places like Bonefish Grill, Legal Seafood, Charthouse in Weehawken, Caldwell Seafood is small but nice. Would you consider going to Newark to the Market St area? A lot of places in Newark like Sol Mar https://www.solmar-restaurant.com/
Don Pepe's ?
Just throwing places out there for you.
Meson Madrid in Palisades Park (on the border of Ft Lee & Cliffside) might be an option. you can have your lobster, and they've got veggie paella, several pastas, and a number of vegetable options for your daughter.
re: fourunder
Thank you all for your suggestions. However, most of these restaurants do not have anything for our vegan. We would have to special order something which can be difficult on a Saturday night. But goodhealthgourmet, thank you, thank you, thank you. Meson Madrid looks perfect. I have never been there, but it looks like there is something for everyone. I just have to make sure they do not use butter in the vegetarian paella but I am going to guess that they do not.
re: oceans
i've had good experiences there in the past, but to be honest i haven't been there in quite some time so i hope i'm not steering you wrong. but the old-world Spanish decor is kinda cute & kitschy, and i figured the menu would accommodate everyone's preferences - i know how challenging it can be ;) have a great meal and a Happy Mother's Day!
re: jamesgelman
Thanks. We all enjoy eating at Park and Orchard. However, I would really like lobster for Mothers Day.
We went to Meson Madrid last night. Thank you so much for the suggestion. The three of us who are not vegan enjoyed our food very much. The lobster was excellent, and I am very picky about my lobsters. Others at the table got paella valenciana and chicken creole and enjoyed their choices very much. The food was excellent. However, the service was not.
They brought our lobster, paella, and chicken to the table and served it. They did not bring the vegan's vegetarian paella. We waited and nothing happened. Finally the waiter came to tell us that there was an accident in the kitchen and the paella had been dropped; they were remaking it. We asked if there was anything else our vegan could have while waiting and apparently there was not. She would have been happy with a plate of vegetables at that point. I am not sure why the waiter did not suggest it. We started eating our meals so they would not get cold. Approximately 25 minutes or so after we got our food and were just about done eating, our vegan received her paella. She hates broccoli. She very clearly specified that she did not want broccoli in the paella. Guess what the dominant vegetable in the paella was. Broccoli. They offered to take it back and make her another one, but at this point, she just wanted something to eat. Needless to say, she did not enjoy her vegan paella very much.
There were several other service issues that we were mostly able to take in stride. I will not enumerate them all here. However, what made the day for our vegan was when the waiter was pouring ice water for us towards the end of the meal, he managed to spill ice water on our vegan's arm. It was like anything that could go wrong for her did.
So, the food was very good. The service was not. I would probably go back for the excellent lobster and other traditional dishes at fair prices. However, our vegan will never go there again. Maybe next year for Mothers Day I will have lobster either a week earlier or later, without her, and go somewhere else for Mothers Day. I do appreciate receiving all the suggestions.
re: oceans
ugh, i'm so sorry to hear about the service issues and the problems you encountered with your daughter's meal. but i'm glad you enjoyed your lobster!
(i actually had lobster tail myself for dinner last night at the River Palm in Edgewater - where we took Mom for pre-Mother's Day dinner - and it was delicious.)
re: goodhealthgourmet
So happy you suggested it though. It would have been perfect had the service been better.
re: goodhealthgourmet
speaking of troubled service......how was it in Edgewater - haven't been to that one in years and remember the service being kind of cold and spotty - with long waits.
re: smilingal
actually, we've always had great service at Edgewater. Mahwah, OTOH, has been a problem (service- *and* food-wise) the few times we've been there.
re: the long waits at Edgewater, it depends who's managing the schedule. they do sometimes over-book on the weekends, so we typically (Mother's Day notwithstanding) go during the week and don't have a problem.
re: smilingal
I have gone to River Palm in Fair Lawn and enjoyed their filet mignon very much. Service was also fantastic. However, I do not think I have ever ordered lobster tail. My history with lobster started in Maine and I enjoy tackling the whole thing. I usually do not order lobster in a fancy restaurant for obvious reasons.
re: oceans
I could be wrong, but I believe RPT only offers live lobsters....no frozen tails.
re: fourunder
The Mahwah location also has frozen tails.
re: oceans
i actually typically enjoy their grilled octopus but i had just eaten octopus the day before so i went for the lobster tail (the only beef i eat is grass-fed, so i don't order steak at RPT). and FWIW, my sister loves their chicken parm - it's not on the menu but they'll make it if you ask ;)

Help Lyrics - Carpenters
Review The Song (1)
When I was younger, so much
Younger than today
I never needed anybody's help
In any way
But now these days are gone
I'm not so self assure
Now I find I've changed my mind
I've opened up the door
(*) Help me if you can I'm feeling down
And if you do appreciate you being round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me
Please help me
And now my life has changed in
Oh! so many ways
My independence seems to vanish
In the haze
And every now and then
I feel so insecure
I know that I need you like
I've never done before
Repeat (*)
Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
Repeat (*)

"Help" critique | Reviewer: Michael Re | 11/9/2008
Awesome rendition of a great Beatles song. The carpenters really rock in this song. I love the synthesizer effect. I've played it in my car and some of the younger generation cannot believe it's the Carpenters performing this song. It should have been a hit single. I think it would have hit the top ten. In fact, the album "Close To You" (which is where this song is from), is an exceptional album. It's a keepsake album for one's music collection.

It does dump the problem squarely into the laps of Reid and Obama. Nothing will come of the House bill. Now Reid looks like a fool for letting the Senate go. He´s the one who doesn´t care about the crisis.

This bill has zero chance of improving security along the borderline unless Obama changes his immigration policies from championing this flood of illegal aliens into the USA, to arresting and deporting them back to their home countries. Obama is not going to do that, because there are too many new socialist oriented foreign born prospective Democrat voters out there in the massive illegal alien population group. That´s what this is all about.

Border security bill passes House vote. Take the money and buy ammo and .308 rifles for the Texas Rangers and the National Guard. Certainly this makes more sense than Homeland Security gunning up.At least this ammo will be used to protect US Citizens and not used against them.Then set up sniper towers every 1000 yards along the Texas/Mexico border. This would require 2,200 towers and 4,400 snipers working 12 hour shifts.Bonuses could be in order for the most proficient snipers. Coyotes and large and small javalinas would be fair game.Javalinas travel in packs, shoot the last one in line and the others will continue on with out noticing...Sgt. York developed this technique in WWII.

text: Greetings all, Ok, here goes, my two cents worth. I am pro Principality and pro Ansteorra, no seperate kingdom. I agree with Mykaru in that I don't think we have the population base in Okla or the economic base to support a seperate Kingdom. I agree with Ulf, I like Nordsteorra as a name because of the tie to Ansteorra. I would not be opposed to discussing other options but I would fight hard to keep that tie. Maybe another language root? Principality arms, NOOOOOOO RED!!!!!!! As a seamstress and ceramacist I have had bad results with red. In costuming red fabric fades quickly and very soon looks old and cheap. Think of all the banners and etc that will be hanging and so very soon need to be replaced due to fading. As for ceramics, red is a SCREAMING BITCH to work with. It never turns out the same way twice and may not turn out at all and nothing works to guarantee outcome. So I reiterate, NOOOOOOOOOO RED, except maybe in small patches such as the sun on the Ansteorran banner (and I'd still prefer another color). Blue sounds great to me. I see this region heading in this direction slowly but surely anyway. Northern Regional has helped firm up our regional identity. Where even 2 years ago people were running screaming at the thought it is now being discussed calmly on a regular basis by people all over the region. Ok, let's do it, let's start the polling and formal discussions. When we know how the majority stands then we'll know where to go from there. I will be at NR Warlord and participate in the roundtable cheerfully. Not everyone will be pro, very rarely does a unanimous opinion exist on any issue but we are all adults and learned our manners. How boring life would be if we all thought alike. I think the pros outweigh the large amount of extra work that will be involved because as so many people have mentioned, deserving people who have long been overlooked will receive the acclaim they are due. Remember Annais if you give them bricks some people will not be able to resist the urge to throw them at you (or me or their neighbor or.....). No bricks, how about something with wings????????
