Learn more and register here.
The American Rainwater Catchment Systems Association has set up a "We the People" petition to formally request President Obama to stimulate the emerging rainwater-harvesting industry through legislation or executive order, creating new jobs in design, installation, education, R&D, sales, plumbing, landscaping, roofing, monitoring and maintenance, which could propel the U.S. to international leadership, with compounding fiscal benefits. 100,000 signature are needed by December 16. Learn more and sign on here.
Water withdrawals in the United States in 2010 were estimated to be about 355 billion gallons per day (Bgal/d), which was 13 percent less than in 2005 according the United States Geological Survey (USGS). The report from USGS, Estimated Use of Water in the United States in 2010, released in November 2014, found that total withdrawals are at the lowest level since before 1970. Learn more here.

The Alliance for Water Efficiency has launched Financing Sustainable Water, an initiative created to help water managers build better rate structures that improve revenue stability, yet encourage resource efficiency. Aimed at combatting the common misperception that conservation makes rates rise, the Financing Sustainable Water initiative was designed to provide helpful tools and data to water managers, elected officials, and consumers. Learn more here.
The International Water Association has announced that the global Efficient2015 conference will be held for the first time in North America.

To cope with its deepening drought, the State of California adopted on July 15, 2014 an emergency resolution and regulation which mandates minimum actions by water providers to curb water waste and conserve water. Contained within the State regulation is a reference to the rates work being compiled by AWE to assist water utilities in the recovery of revenue which may be declining as a result of drought restrictions. Download a copy of the regulations here.
On June 25, AWE President and CEO Mary Ann Dickinson testified before the U.S. Senate Committee on Energy & Natural Resources.

This makes Colorado the fourth state to adopt WaterSense specifications, following California, Georgia, and Texas. Congratulations to all those who worked so hard on this important legislative victory in Colorado! Click here to see the enacted bill.
The Alliance for Water Efficiency has won the 2014 U.S. Water Prize in the non-profit category.

The prize was presented to AWE on April 7 at the National Geographic Society Headquarters in Washington, D.C. Learn more here.
The Alliance for Water Efficiency is celebrating World Water Day 2014 by highlighting the power of plumbing and policy to help ensure sustainable water supplies.

Vimto partners with Vevo to target teens
Vimto, the Nichols-owned soft-drinks brand, has struck a strategic partnership with music video provider Vevo in a move to target teens by shifting its marketing efforts to digital platforms.
Vimto: Lowrider ad created by Driven
The tie-up will be promoted through a campaign that builds on the brand's 'Seriously Mixed Up Fruit' messaging.
The work comes after Vimto revealed it would be moving its marketing spend from TV to digital, seeking to capitalise on its growing online fanbase.
Vimto will run a heavyweight digital campaign from next month across music sites Spotify and we7, and teenage online network MTV, until September.
The tie-up marks the first time that Vimto has partnered with Vevo.
Vimto will also become the main sponsor of an exclusive music release, claiming the deal will give the brand "access to the 12 million unique visitors that stream around 180 million videos each month". However, the music artist involved has not yet been named.
The campaign will drive consumers to the Vimto Facebook page, where they can access new content and a new branded game.
Vimto will also renew its partnership with online advertiser InSkin Media to create a further wave of branded online games in a multimedia promotion.
Clare Pritchard, brand manager, Vimto said: "This campaign builds on major investment in digital marketing for Vimto over the last year, to engage with teens in a relevant environment using platforms that will excite them."
According to Nielsen, Vimto reported sales of £23.5m in 2011, up 1.8% on the year.
Compared to other carbonated drinks, sales of Vimto are relatively small.
Market leader Coca-Cola registered sales of £1.13bn in 2011, ahead of Pepsi with sales of £312.8m, and third-placed Fanta with sales of £119.8m.

Coetzee's Slow Man and Amy T. Matthews's End of the Night Girl Authors: Dooley, Gillian Abstract: Since Salman Rushdie's comments about Adelaide at Writers' Week in 1984, the city has become notorious for being a place of bizarre murders and unexplained disappearances, and this impression has been encouraged by a number of books and films set in the city. Two recent novels, however, portray Adelaide in a different light. In J.M. Coetzee's Slow Man, Adelaide is a slightly boring city with good medical facilities – a setting that I argue allows Coetzee to explore the questions that preoccupy him in his later novels, themes of ageing and mortality, away from the urgent political issues which cannot be ignored in novels set in such places as South Africa. Amy T. Matthews' End of the Night Girl more explicitly contrasts the ordinary daily travails of an Adelaide woman with the horrific ordeals of a Holocaust victim. In this paper, I explore the use of Adelaide in these novels as a relatively safe and benign location where the problems experienced by characters are not those caused by political oppression, war or disaster, but are those common to all civilised societies, like ageing, relationship woes and social alienation 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z Every Reader is a Stranger: The Novels of Tabish Khair Dooley, Gillian Mary http://hdl.handle.net/2328/27084 2013-11-03T16:30:31Z 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z Title: Every Reader is a Stranger: The Novels of Tabish Khair Authors: Dooley, Gillian Mary Abstract: A study of Tabish Khair's first two novels, 'The Bus Stopped' and 'Filming' 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z

Rusty AC Jesus
Christopher Goldsberry of Jackson County, MS said that when he saw the rust pattern on this old AC unit, he "knew who that was immediately." Of course, it was Jesus. Who else?
But Goldsberry added, "The gentleman I purchased it from didn't see any of it. Think about it. They don't recognize what it is. Some people see it, some people don't. Think about that."

"I ordered these cards with a photograph on the front and one on the back. The quality of the print was great and the invitations looked beautiful! I also ordered the RSVP cards and directions insert which are part of the suite. I was thrilled with the finished product and I highly recommend these invitations! Thank you!"
"I uploaded my design and they helped fit it within the paper without making it feel cramped. The quality was very good. The bride that I designed it for loved them and was very satisfied. Shipping was very quick."
"The paper quality was great & the colors look exactly as online. I did not do any upgrades & was very happy with my final outcome. Simple, yet adds a pop of color!"
"Very happy with the final product. The site is easy to use and the process was quick to complete. The colors and font choices were good. I would have liked little more flexibility in placing my text, but speaking with a designer helped me get what I wanted with no problem."
"These invitations are wonderful! just what I was looking for for our beach wedding. Still has a beach element but still elegant and classy. Customer service was great. They accommodated my changes and even added recommended adjustments. Delivery was fast as well. Thanks!"

More revenues? What about the spending cuts?
"There is no doubt we need additional revenue, coupled with smart spending reductions in order to bring down our deficit," he said during a CBS News interview aired right before the Super Bowl.
That raises a few questions.
1. If he really wants to reduce the deficit, why did he produce four straight budgets with deficits of more than $1 trillion?
2. Does anyone really believe that his new budget (which was due on Monday, by the way) will contain no new spending and instead devote all new revenues to deficit reduction?
3. If revenues are to be "coupled with smart spending reductions," then shouldn't both come at the same time? Why is it always revenues first, spending reductions later?
Republicans in the U.S. House need to insist that the President present real spending reductions before or in conjunction with his plan to raise revenue. Then they should insist that the spending cuts be passed and signed into law before any vote on revenue is taken. Let's not fall again for the "I'll cut spending after you raise taxes" trick.

"Very happy with how my sons birth announcement came out! The template made it so easy. I just added the info and picture."
"We have ordered from TP many times in the past and this card did not disappoint. We wanted a card we could use as a birth announcement and holiday card in one as our son was born in mid-November. This card fit the bill perfectly. I have received a ton of compliments."
"It was extremely easy to create a personal message!!! The quality of the standard card is just gorgeous! We are happy with the purchase and proud to introduce our new little one with this card. Thank you Tiny Prints!"
"We chose a black and white photo and rounded corners for this and it came out very nicely. The blue label popped out against the photo-which we chose an opposite orientation on than is in the example. We also added a casual photo on the back of the whole family with a short note and had enough room left over to write personal messages or funny thought bubbles to those we are close to. We got the matte finish which came out nicely-the paper is a good weight. We got many compliments on them!"
"LOVE this announcement. It's adorable, & the printing & paper quality are excellent. Had some issues ordering & customer service was very attentive & helpful. Would definitely recommend tinyprints!"

Report names LG's phones as least reliable
LG . . . what the hell! As Elrond said the SE devices are true bits of engineering, specifically the K800i is rock solid. Although pretty much any SE in vanilla stylee (minus operator bloatwear) are usually damm good. Weather or not the Ericsson - SE chip sourcing shift will change this we'll have to wait and see (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/08/21/ericsson_st_merge/).
But LG come the fuck on. I can't name many people who know the remotest bit about mobile technology who would use a LG handset and the only people who do have bought an LG for its aesthetics sacrificing actual functionality (every tried sync'ing an LG?). The spec often looks good on paper but take an LG out the box and you'll be sending it back swiftly if you've any sense.
Of course this research is kind of defunct as the majority of handsets will be 'smart phones' in the coming 24 months. So Symbian S60/80, WM 6.5 and 7 when it arrives. Not forgetting Android lots of Android. Mine's the one with a SE in the pocket . . .
How you pay for tomorrow's scares, today
Nice article
@ Bassey: Exactly. How can you define increased losses in such a generic overview, they are insurers surely their job is to look into the complex analysis of this. Make's you wanna cry that people are brazenly going about acting like this.
@ Matthew Glubb: Spot on at the issue at heart here, insurance firms just like everyone else cashing in on scaremongering. Not a new idea but one this society and culture hasn't come to loath as quickly as the powers that be (inc. business) can adapt it.
T-Mobile leaves 300,000 disconnected

As my number is ONO (originating network operator) from T-Mobile I was also impacted by this issue. . . sigh should really think about getting a new number just too damm lazy to learn another.
3 pledges 14.4Mb/s HSDPA in 2010
marketing vs. tech
The key issue here is that UK mobile operators are fighting in a saturated voice market but are being driven to continue acquiring new connections for data.
So everyone and your dog want's to flog you a netbook or USB modem. Meanwhile the 'clever' marketing bod's figure slapping 3.6Mbps or 7.2Mbps on the front of the box will fool people into thinking the service will be similar to a 2MBps or 8MBps ADSL connection.
Marketing people are thick as pig shit, and judging from most people moaning so are most consumers. Wake the hell up and remember the different between b and B. Bit and Byte people. Jesus
So just to confirm for you all: a HSDPA device capable of 7.2Mbps will achieve (in ideal RAN conditions) download speed of about 900kB/s. Similarly a 3.6Mb/s will get around 450kB/s.
Orange ditches Phorm
where did this go?
Is it just me or doesn't ICAP give operators a way of implementing these kind of value added services?
Why bother with someone like Phorm!
Police drop BT-Phorm probe
Not suprised . . .
. . . but very disappointed this has been swept under the rug, unless the right volume of complaints from public to UK/EC authorities hit at the right time I fear that no action will be taken at all.
As for the EC agreeing that BT's customers would be unable to understand the intent and workings of Phorm's system, it doesn't matter! If it contravenes RIPA or any other statute surely the UK government and the EC have the objective to step in to protect the average citizens interests!
Disgusted at this decision.
Pure Digital Evoke Flow internet radio
Check the pure site and click specs:
"Future upgrade supported for DAB+.
Wireless: 802.11b and 802.11g supported with WEP and WPA/WPA2 encryption.

No mention of ethernet, though it does list mini USB for product upgrades and you would need a 3.5 to RCA cable for hi-fi.
Indian gov denied BlackBerry snoop
please, please, please rtfm
@ Anonymous Coward
Posted Tuesday 27th May 2008 13:31 GMT
"The BlackBerry security architecture for enterprise customers is purposefully designed to exclude the capability for RIM or any third party to read encrypted information under any circumstances"
So how do they process spam!."
BlackBerry's infrastructure for enterprise customers doesn't filter spam. Your getting confused between enterprise and RIM's other offerings. With enterprise the encryption secures traffic from the handset to the customers server not just to the relay (see: http://na.blackberry.com/eng/ataglance/security/bes_diag_large.jpg). The encryption for prosumer (internet customers) works from handset to relay. Beyond this security is specified by the integrated account (POP, IMAP or OWA).
This doesn't mean the RIM relay can't store enterprise encrypted messages it routes for later cracking although as stated you'd need some serious computing power (NSA style) and if these kind of boys are after you I'd probably be inclined to not send e-mail at all for sensitive communication.
Or for the paranoid what's to say the BES software doesn't automatically send a copy of users keys back to the relay so copies of encrypted messages can be decrypted stored and forwarded to your black helicopter agency of choice.
I refer all interested parties to:
WiMAX gets EU harmonisation at 2.6GHz
4G is a very broad term for pretty much all next gen wireless technologies. Most traditional network providers are using the buzzword LTE (Long Term Evolution) as 3G was more of a rip and refit. LTE will be a gradual increase using more flexible time slot's and lighter protocol stacks (radio end) all coupled with IP core, transmission & signalling. I think most providers are either all IP for these planes or half way there. But if there not I'd be worried.
On another note I think the 2.6GHz UK auction will be very interesting the first real breakdown of the LTE projects from major UK players.
Should I buy a USB HSDPA modem?
USB modem's are an excellent next generation move from classic PCMCIA or ExpressCard datacard's however:
Ensure any specific locations you require coverage are checked before taking out a contract, providers do not guarantee coverage
Just because the area has coverage does not guarantee service... 3G coverage is susceptible to shrinkage additionally busy hours can result in loss of service or degradation due to congestion. 3G is not an always on technology!
USB devices that control or initiate network connections can be very hard to configure in rare cases, anti-virus or specific hardware issue can be a bugger... these things are not fault free!
3G is fine and so is HSDPA. However try and acquire a HSUPA device to achieve increased upload speeds when released (1.8Mbps HSUPA will be arriving soon on Vodafone UK). Wikipedia or similar has info on HSDPA/HSUPA
Your reported speeds of 4.2Mbps down and 40Kbps up sounds like a 7.2Mbps device. Most 7.2Mbps sites generally peak down speeds about 5Mb and the 40K up will just be 3G as HSDPA only provides downlink. Although I'm not sure if Three are using 3.2Mbps or higher currently so can't confirm.
O2's Companion halted
I think this is quite a naive view, depending on how this billing system's incorporates into the GSM/UMTS network and how bad the billing system fault is people could add the APN/service again and again but the billing system may push it back off each time.
Not to mention that the tariff and billing admin is generally done by customer service. . . need I say more
Mobile networks: the state's new bloodhounds?
@ Christian Berger
This really depends on what kind of RAN deployment the operator is using, I think you'll find GSM Phase 2 and above is rather more secure than you suggest. The IMSI isn't the real bad boy anyway and will be saved from radio transmission for security purposes wherever possible.
But be it MSISDN, IMSI or IMEI as above you can't prove this link's someone to any crimes as per Andre Carneiro.
O2 starts charging for calls to non-places
Couple o'bit's
@ Rip-Off
By Rich
"Does it actually cost the operator more to connect to these numbers? I don't think so."
Generally most modern UK mobile operators pay 'per hop' to connect across PSTN. Obviously routing will try and terminate out of the mobile network and onto the PSTN at the closest available switch to the B number. So if a PSTN routed number can only be passed onto the network at x point which result's in more internal routing, or more hops across the PSTN for the mobile operator than a local number would then perhaps justification is there.
@ I already overpay
By John
"But seriously, what's the difference between a geographic number and a non-geographic number for a cellular service operator?"
Mobile service operators don't have one big pipe into PSTN network's and the rest of the telecommunication world, so there is lot's of differences. Especially if the operator pays 'per hop' as some call's could be passed and established onto a geographic number a lot easier than other say none geographic numbers who's routing defines they must enter via a specific location which is higher cost link (or more hops across the PSTN). Basically both parties are involved in these interconnectivity solutions and agreements and I'm sure cost and profit are a weighty argument when deciding how to deploy; of course how they then decide to price structure for the call after working minimal cost to themselves is a different matter (ref: Gareth Davies).
@ 0845 numbers
By Kev K
As above the owner of the number can essentially decide how it routes and how it's charged. It just depends on who 'hosts' and how they achieve routing really, as long it complies to Ofcom reg's businesses are free to choose (correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not 100% on this one.)
Vodafone calls C&W for IP migration
Interesting stuff
From the network that brought you the first 2G to 3G VoIP core call (woot to BICC and MPLS), it'll be interesting to see where C&W, Cisco and Ericsson go with this network. . .

University College Dublin scientists have sequenced the complete genetic code of an Irish person for the first time ever.
The 3.1 billion sub-units of DNA were mapped by the team from the Conway Institute at the university led by Professor Brendan Loftus.
The Loftus team used DNA from an anonymous Irish male who had a confirmed sole Irish ancestry of three generations.
Prof Loftus said the individual chosen was considered a good example of Irish DNA and "showed variation typical of the island".
"We have a better chance of understanding disease biology and susceptibility if we can stratify different populations on the basis of their genes," he told the Irish Times.
The study provides the first ever complete genetic picture of the Irish branch of the European ancestral tree.
irish are knwn to be mroe susceptible to several diseases including cystic fibrosis. Differences between the DNA of Irish and others may provide a clue why that is so.
An "Irish genetic signature" will eventually be developed said Professor Loftus.

Recette review
- skigirl Aug 12, 2010 10:18 PM
I had a really nice dinner at Recette last night. Did the 5 course tasting with wine pairing ($50 addt'l). There was an amuse of hamachi with uni and harissa (wonderful flavor combo), a tomato with burrata (served with a bit of broccolli - fresh and bright and summery), the single best bowl of corn soup I've ever had (served with foie gras - what's NOT to love?), two perfectly cooked scallops,and some pork belly that thankfully was a bit too sweet for my taste -- I was too full. Dessert included a nicely made raspberry sorbet with peach, and "smores". The wine pairing was really nice and interesting, including a Ramsay Pinot and an Austrian Gewurztraminer, among others. I wish I paid better attention (and had not drunk as much...)
I have only two minor criticisms, other than the somewhat too sweet pork belly.....First, there are a couple of too many tables in the place. My companion was constantly bumped and jostled. Second, the room is loud that the runners serving some of the dishes had thick accents, making it really difficult to hear descriptions of the dishes.
Other than these two things, it's definitely a "go again." It was significantly better than my dinner at Nougatine last week (see my earlier review).
328 West 12th Street, New York, NY 10014
Yes, another agreement of your assessment of Recette. We've enjoyed both our meals there and been lucky enough to get a table by the window on the side each time, so the bumping factor was not an issue. The small portions are a nice change and we like ordering different courses so we get a taste of everything.
328 West 12th Street, New York, NY 10014
I had the corn soup recently too and it was the best! My favorite dish of the night though were the Buffalo Sweetbreads - totally blew any buffalo chicken wings I've had out of the water!
Unfortunately, due to the treatment we received we were unable to try the food. Last night I called and made a reservation for 7:30. We are in town with our daughter who is returning to college and were going to have a last night dinner together. When we arrived we were told we would be seated shortly. Within minutes a woman came and told us that, because a party with a 7:00 reservation had arrived 35 minutes late, we could not be seated. She offered to let us sit at the (cramped) bar to eat. So we left and told some prospective diners outside why. And they did as well.
I would understand if we did not have reservations, but I think it is rude and bad business to basically rescind our reservation in favor of someone who was 35 minutes late. If their policy is to hold reservations that long they should not have made a reservation for us and caused us to take a 35 minute trip.
re: ZaZa
If I had a 7:30pm reservation, I would expect the restaurant to keep a table empty for me making sure that any parties at MY table would have ordered, eaten, and paid well before I got there.
Hence a party who was late for a 7pm reservation should have no effect on me. It is unlikely that a party arriving at 7pm would been sat at the table meant for MY party, then have ordered, eaten, and paid in the 30 min. time frame.
I assume the restaurant must have filled the table meant for the 7pm party with walk-in customers when the host assumed the 7pm party were no-shows, and then when the 7pm party arrived, extremely tardy, seated them at the table meant for the 7:30pm, therefore squeezing the 7:30pm party out completely even though the 7:30pm party were on time.
re: rrems
I had dinner the other night at Recette. I can't say anything bad about the food. The roasted corn soup and scallops were good. The deserts were great. But the service and attitude -- ugh! Our friends got there a little earlier than we did. The place was empty, but they insisted that "policy" dictated they could not be seated (presumably until we arrived -- why is that?). And when they did sit, the hostess insisted they push the table virtually up against the wall giving them barely enough room to breath. Bread came only after a couple requests. The waitress kept pushing us to order three plates -- even though two were fine and I have a healthy appetite. A request to substitute lentils from a dish was flatly refused. The waitress' suggestion was "just order something else". I can respect a chef's desire to deliver the taste and texture that was intended, but on a small menu, there ought to be Plan B for each dish. The bigger problem is the menu itself. The food just didn't sound exciting. Everything felt like I "had that before" -- even though the execution was perfectly good. Oh, and the place was "I can't hear you even though you are next to me" noisy. I had really high hopes for Recette, but don't need to go back.

re: jcooper
I was there this week too. It was crowded and our table was a bit uncomfortable. I thought about asking to be moved as a more spacious table by a window became available shortly after we were seated, but my partner did not care to move. I loved the food, as I have in the past. My only complaint is that the waitress told us they had a special of fried oysters, and we ordered it a few minutes later, only to be told 15 minutes later that they were out of it. How many dishes you order really depends on which ones you order, as the portion sizes vary and are roughly related to price. We get 4 to 6 dishes for the 2 of us.
loud, pretentious and overpriced...not a "recipe" for success...
this is just another bad trendy restaurant in the west village.
the size of most of the dishes were like an amuse bouche...
but there's nothing amusing here...some of the dishes were truly
they took what was a lovely dining room and made it
noisy and uncomfortable...
my "prescription" for hunger - visit another place!
re: mla19
That is too bad, mla. We've been a few times and have never had bad service. If anything, our waiter on this last visit was slightly too friendly and maybe not pushy enough, since I probably would've ordered another bottle of wine and a few more dishes with some encouragement. (I was with my parents and they're horribly polite.) I definitely understand about the issue with price, though. Probably, $30 or so for a "small plate" of steak is a bit excessive.
Recette has, if anything, gotten better since opening. They've expanded the menu a lot, though many dishes include similar ingredients, so if you order a lot of items, make sure the dishes don't sound too similar or flavors will begin to run together. I understand complaints about prices. They do seem rather high for the quantity of food -- but you can't argue with the quality of the ingredients. It's very high.
(1) Roasted sunchoke soup with Nantucket Bay scallops, pear and smoked bacon; (2) grilled pulpo with black garlic purée, fennel, preserved lemon and rosemary; and (3) bacon wrapped venison with parsnip, cabbage, apple, mustard beurre rouge were standout dishes on our recent visit.
328 West 12th Street, New York, NY 10014
Had the same 5 course meal you did a few weeks later. I thought it was as good a meal as over the top Cyrus (28 Food Zagat and 2 Michelin stars), in Healdburg, Sonoma County, CA. which is similar to French Laundry, I am told. Very impressive. Wish they could handle my party of 6 two weeks from now but it's a small place.
re: atievsky
I don't think Cyrus is anywhere near the caliber of French Laundry in Yountville. Nowhere near, imho.
re: RCC
Very few restaurants in the world are on the caliber of the French Laundry.
That being said, Recette aside from the cramped tables , it is a great find in a great location.
There is not many if any better places in the neighborhood. It is way better than Pastis, or Morimoto, or Paradou, etc etc. Wallse is better perhaps, but different type of food.
re: foodwhisperer
I've never been to Racette and was not commenting on Racette. My comment was clearly about Cyrus in Healdsburg and TFL in Yountville.
re: RCC
I know what your comment was. I was commenting on the French Laundry and shared your opinion as to the high caliber of the French Laundry. The Original Post here was about Recette. I felt I could respond to that also in the same reply.
The topic is Recette, regardless of the mention of Cyrus, where i have never been to. But no place compares to the French Laundry
I went back to Racette and had the 7 course tasting and my friend had the same but mostly different dishes , so we could taste more things. The hamachi amuse was very good. The bone marrow on little toasts were excellent. The codfish fritters on a bed of ground lamb tasted better than the combinations sounds. The roasted foie gras is perfect, however, there is a huge surcharge for it. You are better off not ordering it in the tasting menu and just order it extra ala carte. That way you get an extra course . It is $18 surcharge.
The scallop dish is very good , but the center of my scallop was cold. The dishes are meant to come coldest, then room temp, then warm then the hot dishes according to the waiter. The scallop should have been warm througout. The duck was exceptional. The sweetbreads were very good but I found them a bit dry. There was a little bit of sauce with it but not enough. The pork belly was very good, i didnt find it sweet at all. The Onion foam soup with oxtail was very good. The homade spaghetti with shrimp , uni and tomato sauce was very good. The pasta was excellent but the tomatoes were a bit too tangy. The shrimp were perfect. Dessert and the pre dessert were very good. The service was as good as it gets. My waiter was one of the best Ive had anywhere. The place was packed. The noise level was high but c'est la vie. The location is great and parking is easy.
328 West 12th Street, New York, NY 10014
This is not a "small plate" restaurant -- it's a micro-plate one, suitable for the wealthy who've had gastric bypasses and can consume only thimblefuls.
Our group of three ordered two plates each and two "sides." The waitress refused to say which of the plates were most substantial. "It's a progression," she said, meaning that the chef would decide the order the food came in, starting with the lightest (whether or not we wanted our wild arugula salad first or last ($12 for a handful of leaves overdressed with lemon and decorated with invisible kumquat, symbolic mint, plenty of hazelnuts, and a couple of matchbook-cover-sized shaves of ricotta salata.) The restaurant was out of both the duck and the lobster by 10 p.m., or we would have tried those.
We very much liked the large-tater-tot size salt cod fritters (three, for $12), with lamb ragu, though the curry aioli came off as harsh and uninflected. The Calamari, kale, cucumber, red chili, and white anchovy plate ($17) was a toss of shredded kale the size of a baby's hand, and six or seven vanishingly small calamari rings. No discernible cucumber, and only what appeared to be a sheer strip of anchovy. Orzo with peekytoe crab, spring peas, mint, lemon, parmesan" (at an insane $32) was maybe a cup and a half of orzo? with a few slender bits of what we assumed must be crab.
"Roasted scallops, local beets, asparagus, caviar beurre blanc" ($25 for four scallops) came with exactly two pinky-finger-length shaves of hard asparagus, but the scallops and bits of beet were delicious. Roasted cauliflower raviolo with sepia, guanciale, mascarpone, ocean broth ($19), the best dish of the night, was three or four ravioli. A palm-sized piece of Sea Bream ($25), with five or six tiny Manila clams and pieces of artichoke and potato, was also good, though nothing special. Had it not been for the very ordinary spring vegetables ($10) and under-seasoned duck fat fingerlings ($8), we would have gone away still hungry.

Pin a label on Rosie Thomas at your peril. Her pop-laced folk albums were breathy outliers on Sub Pop's roster during the mid-'00s, both timeless and charmingly out of step with current trends. Friendships with Sufjan Stevens, Damien Jurado and Denison Witmer offered Thomas the opportunity to prove herself as a backup singer, and her 2008 holiday release A Very Rosie Christmas remains a bright-eyed addition to the canon. But with this year's With Love, Thomas has released her first LP of original material in seven years. The time has strengthened her chops and honed her emotionally honest and knowingly intuitive songwriting.

Recruiting Medical Executives in China
September 3, 2014
Finding the right Chinese medical executives can be a challenging proposition. Certain positions, like regulatory executives, general managers, and excellent business development executives are currently in short supply. Over the last five years, the salaries of Chinese medical executives have also skyrocketed. Today, a good business development executive with fifteen years of medical experience in China is getting about $250,000 per year. Senior Chinese regulatory executives, who are in very short supply, are sometimes making over $150,000 per year at Western medical companies in China.

We made sure to ask them to film us doing actual work, not just goofing off with post-its.
The story was also picked up online by Geek Wire. Here's a link:
And here's the video clip from KING 5 News in Seattle.

It was a fun few weeks, but I think we'll get back to work now… maybe.

Who knew there were so many colors of Post-Its? i think that the 3M company should provide both companies involved in this with free post-its for a good year for the free advertisement. LOL
I did get to see this on the news and saw our own Tif, Flapper's mom, talking to King 5.
