Need Dinner Recommendations for Bethesda Area
Four of us will be staying in Bethesda for a few days in mid-May & are looking for evening dining recommendations for what I guess you'd call semi-upscale to upscale food. Good food is most important, more so than price or the specific cuisine. We're from SF & Boston so we're used to a wide range of cuisines & preparations. Just want it to taste good, and not be 45 minutes from where we're staying (across from Westfield Montgomery Mall at 270 & Democracy).
I did a couple of searches on Bethesda & saw delis well-represented on the lists. That'll do for lunch, so I'm hoping you folks can get us squared away for din-din.
re: katecm
Absolutely! I suppose we'd like to have no more than around 25 minutes of driving each way. Not knowing the area, I hope that opens things up a bit.
not sure of any deli in Bethesda worth going to, Bethesda has over 100 restaurants, some which are very good. also a great range in prices
lunch: Cornacopia- a small italian gourmet grocery store that has a few small tables and makes fantastic sandwiches with fine cured meats and cheeses, expensive balsalmic reductions and arugula. Taylor Gourmet- fantastic subs named after streets in Philadelphia, I love the fried chicken cutlet with provolone, roasted red peppers and brocolli rabe. South street Steaks- authentic Philly cheese steaks.
Dinner- Blacks- upscale seafood, fine dining. business casual, Ruths Chris Steak, Green Papaya- upscale vietnamese, Tako Grill- Sushi and Japanese grill house, Jaleo- spanish tapas, Haven Pizza- upscale New Haven style thin crust pizza including a great white garlic fresh shucked clam pizza (can do this for lunch) , Bethesda Crab House- MD style steamed hardshell crabs and beer, Mussel Bar- Belgian mussel and beer bistro (also can do for lunch)
re: ktmoomau
Passage to India is my number one choice, and I had an outrageously good meal recently of the spinach with buttermilk, the baby gourds, and the black dal. Whatever you order, get the pickles and spices listed on the last page.
re: GraydonCarter
I do, actually, and did see it's just across from where we'll be. We're hoping for something a little more interesting than what's on offer there.
Depending on which part of Bethesda, you may find driving/parking a nightmare. There are two parts to Bethesda. The area north of the metro/Hyatt, bounded by Wisconsin (355) on the east, Old Georgetown Road on the west, and Rugby Avenue (actually a very small street) on the north is called "The Triangle." It has what little is left of the un-glam Bethesda, but it is mostly renovated now. There is street parking and a few garages.
The other part is below the Metro/Hyatt, bounded by Wisconsin (355) on the east, but there are quite a few restarurants on the east side of Wisconsin and a block or so east. It is bounded by Arlington on the west, Bradley on the south, but most restaurants are on Woodmont or north. The center of this area is Bethesda Row, which is centered on Woodmont and Bethesda Ave. This area is always a PITA because people double-park and the garages are always crazy. Now it is even worse because one of the largest garages has been closed for demolition. They have tried to improve things a bit by putting up a sign at the garage on Bethesda Ave reporting how many spaces are available. Nonetheless, it is really a hassle. I'm not sure this section has a name so I will just call it "downtown."
As for restaurants, both sections have plenty of great choices. Many have already been identified, but I am sorting them here into Triangle and downtown.
Green Papaya (Vietnamese)
Black's Kitchen and Grill
Jaleo (tapas) - note that this location is the weakest of the chain; I've never found it worthwhile
Mussel Bar - gets mixed reviews
RiRa - Irish pub
Newton's Table - healthy gourmet
Taylor Gourmet (deli)
Cosi (chain, but great for lunch - better than most delis)
Nando's - South African peri peri chicken - great for lunch
Redwood - gorgeous, opens right onto the pedestrian plaza, great vibe, good food
Mon Ami Gabi - chain, but one of the better chains
Grapeseed (always gets high marks)
Freddy's Lobster & Clams - right next to Grapeseed; same owners, great New England style seafood
Passage to India (always gets high marks)
Brasserie Monte Carlo
Bistro Provence - highly regarded chef but seems to be still finding its way...mixed reviews
Cesco Osteria
Tragara - top-end Italian, expensive but worth it
Sweet Basil - for my money, best Thai in Bethesda
At the fringes:
Persimmon (upscale for dinner, great food) - southern edge of downtown, on Wisconsin
Someone mentioned Bethesda Crab House. Don't. It isn't horrible but if you want hardshell crabs, this is NOT the place to go. The places to go are all far outside your driving distance. Also avoid Louisiana Kitchen. Formerly known as Louisiana Express, it was a Bethesda favorite. It closed and then re-opened in a new location and, I think with new owners. It is borderline dreadful now. Avoid: Les Vieux Logis. Once quite good traditional Alsatian & French, it is now very weak and frequented mostly by superannuated people who have been going there for decades.
Someone also mentioned Ruth's Chris. Well, it is a bit more of a drive, but if you want phenomenal steak (with some fish and chicken items), go to Ray's the Steaks in Clarendon, VA or Ray's in Silver Spring. Less expensive, less attitude. Just great food served straight up.
For full list, addresses, phone numbers, websites: http://www.bethesda.org/
re: Just Visiting
FYI -- Cesco moved from Triangle over to 7401 Woodmont -- old M&S site.
OK, now a couple of non-Bethesda choices that are still within your driving distance:
Praline - great French (mostly bistro) food in a shopping center in the Cabin John area of Bethesda. Not much to look at, but great food. Downstairs is a bakery (take some things back to the hotel! but note that they run out of the baguettes, croissants, and pastries by mid-day) and eating area; upstairs is more of a restaurant seating area and a big outdoor patio if the weather is nice.
Addie's - owned by the same people who own Black's Kitchen and Grill. It is in a funky little old house on Rockville Pike (six-lane hell) but it is set back off the road. Small, even with the large tent outside, so make res. They have another place about 5 minutes away, hidden in a residential neighborhood. Black Market Bistro. I personally do not like this place but most do.
In Rockville town center - several good choices, including La Canela (Peruvian, always great food) and Spice Xing - always gets high marks.
Clyde's Tower Oak Lodge. Part of a local chain, large, reliable but nothing fantastic. Quite close to where you are staying but on the other side of 270.
Also on Rockville Pike - Matchbox. I mention it only because local people who might be in your meeting are likely to recommend it because it is so popular. Don't. Just don't. It's just that - trendy and mediocre. Not a place for people who really enjoy good food. And if it is pizza you want, try Mia's or Haven in Bethesda. The latter is new and it is, as the name implies, New Haven style. On the east side of Wisconsin/355 in "downtown" Bethesda. Mia's is great wood-fired pizza with excellent toppings. In the Triangle. Has outdoor seating and usually has lines.
re: Just Visiting
From where you will be, you will be able to head north/NE just as easily as into Bethesda. Within a 20 min drive, you have some of the best food in the area- it's just not upscale.
Scichuan Pavillion
Joe's Noodle- (Szechuan not noodles. they didn't get new signage)
Mama's dumplings
Nava Thai
Ruan Thai
Also, many suggest the Ethiopian in DC is the best in the area. If you don't want the hassle of driving into the city. park in Bethesda, take the metro. Easy.
Second the Cleveland Park idea & Passage to India and Mia's and Green Papaya. Parking is a little tougher in Cleveland Park.
Spice Xing in Rockville Town Center (on the edge of the 25 min drive limit) is very good, and parking is easy.
Wow, way more than I'd hoped for when I posted. Thank all of you soooo much. This is going to make the trip so much more fun!
I wouldn't limit myself to Bethesda. Where you are is less than 20 minutes from downtown DC, and if you are willing to go the METRO route, drive over to the closest stop (Probably Grovsnor) and take the red line to a slew of much better restaurants than you will find in Bethesda. Besides, parking in Bethesda proper is a major pain.
If you must go to Bethesda, Black's Bar and Kitchen 7750 Woodmont Avenue is good (not inexpensive) and has a parking deck right next door.
re: dinwiddie
Sorry but it takes more than 20 minutes total even if you take Metro. You've got to get to a Metro (driving in rush hour traffic in Bethesda or Rockville), find parking, and then wait a few minutes for the train (unless you get lucky). And hope the train doesn't stop for no apparent reason, which is actually fairly frequent. When I have to go downtown for a meeting, I always allow a full hour. Yes, I am usually early, but better than the alternative, and the actual train part is 20 minutes at a minimum.
For those who recommended Cleveland Park, which is not downtown, Metro is the only realistic way to do it because parking is virtually non-existent, especially at rush hour when there is no street parking on Connecticut.
And if you are getting from Montgomery Mall to Wheaton in 20 minutes at rush hour, I am going to stay off those roads, because there's no way. That's at least 20 lights, and even if you don't hit all of them red, you still have long, slow lines of cars moving off the reds.
FYI for the Metro in Bethesda, there is a HUGE parking garage across Wisconsin from the Hyatt. It is a public garage and the meters run until 10 p.m. (as is true in most of Bethesda, and they ticket like mad so feed your meter!). There are always spaces. If you cross Wisconsin at Montgomery Lane (across from the police station), there is an elevator to the Metro. If you cross at Old Georgetown, there is a large plaza with escalators.
re: dinwiddie
for the few days they are going to be here there are plenty of choices available in downtown bethesda. no need to travel to wheaton, rockville,or ride to the metro and metro it anywhere in DC.

Gov. Bob McDonnell has requested federal disaster assistance for the state and several localities hit hard by two winter storms last month.
McDonnell is asking the Federal Emergency Management Agency to pay for damage to public infrastructure, debris removal and related emergency services in 14 localities. He's seeking reimbursement for those items as well as snow removal for 26 additional localities.
McDonnell also is asking FEMA to consider the impact in an additional 43 localities that did not meet the snowfall threshold, but had significant snow removal costs.
Some parts of northern and northwestern Virginia got more than three feet of snow in early February, then an additional five to 15 inches days later. Other areas also got heavy snow.

The most popular torrent file for StarCraft II has been downloaded over 2.3 million times via BitTorrent clients. The amount of data transferred due to illegal downloads totals 15.77 petabytes. That's according to TorrentFreak, which recently reviewed some of the most memorable torrent files since BitTorrent was first released in 2001.
To put the mind boggling numbers into perspective, one petabyte (PB) is about 1,024 terabytes (TB) or 1,048,576 gigabytes (GB). That means the total amount of data transferred from pirated versions of StarCraft II accounts for over 16 million gigabytes. That's a lot of data!
Although the popular torrent file for StarCraft II may account for the most data transferred, the total file size of the torrent was 7.19GB. TorrentFreak cites a torrent file containing a collection of all the 2010 World Cup soccer matches as the single largest torrent file in history, which is a whopping 746.7GB.
Despite the rampant piracy, StarCraft II still sold well. Over 1.5 million units were sold within the first 48 hours after the game launched earlier this year. Blizzard Entertainment later reported that over 3 million copies of StarCraft II were sold worldwide during the first month of release.

We found this place Googling B&B's. It is listed as a B&B alternative. Beware of what that means. It is more like a luxury apt.Our room was spacious, ultra clean, private and cozy. But there are no common areas for guests, inside or out. You must walk through a retail store to get to your room. The balcony had a view of a neighbors' window, not a mountain view. And an electric fireplace (non-heat producing) is not a fireplace. We also did not get the room we asked for. There is no communal dining, rather home-baked goods left in your room. And the owner is NOT on premise. Perfect place if you want to be left alone. 5 stars as a home-stay or apt. 2 stars as a B&B

No complaints! Spent two nights here with my boyfriend during October (which is a beautiful time to visit Jim Thorpe) and we we didn't want to leave Suites on Broadway so soon! The rooms are clean and new and the decor makes for a cozy and aesthetically pleasing place to stay! The owner is a doll and she was very welcoming, made us feel right at home. She does not live on premise, the rooms are above her boutique, but she makes herself available via her personal cell phone in the event that you need anything after she leaves the shop at night. She leaves baked goods out for you each night for the next morning. The kitchenette (mini fridge, toaster, microwave, coffee maker) was fully stocked with dishes and silverware, milk, juice, jelly, coffee, tea, etc. There is also a cute little balcony that had it been a few degrees warmer, we would have enjoyed thoroughly! Also has a king size mattress and flat screen TV. Ideal, central location in town- It was easy enough for us to stop in our room to use the bathroom or freshen up while we were walking around town.

The support on the Metamodpro website is also excellent and speedy, unlike a lot of other developers I've tried to contact with regards to Joomla extensions!! The guy who assisted me guided me through the whole process of getting it solved and gave me the results I needed - and which I struggled with for some time before asking for help.
Thanks for making such an excellent tool available to us and thank you for giving such good support when needed.
byrhapsidee, August 8, 2012
It was easy to install and instructions are clear on how to use it.
Also, a BIG thanks to the developer who not only gave a reply VERY quickly compared to other developers - some don't answer at all! He was also kind enough to assist me with editing the files when I got stuck wanting to change something.
So excellent product + excellent service!!

When it comes to lighting, I'm a bit of a snob. Sorry, I just am. I certainly have made mistakes with light fixtures, and I still marvel at lighting done right and think, "I would have never thought of that!" However, light fixtures need to be addressed when you are doing any sort of fixing up, renovating, building, or apartment hunting. It's such an easy thing to do when you are trying to make your space unique and inviting, especially if you are renting. If you are someone handy, or know someone that is, then changing out fixtures should be no problem. If you are renting you should save the original fixture, then switch back before you move. A couple things to do when looking for fixtures: stay away from super contemporary fixtures (they just look...
favorite books
I really love big beautiful books that are about interior design or fashion. I can't get enough. It's difficult to narrow down a favorite, but these are a few that are great for different reasons. 1: a perfectly kept house is a sign of a misspent life by Mary Randolph Carter-this is a great book for anyone who struggles with keeping it all together amongst the kids, dogs, and everyday life. 2: Lifting the Curtain on Design by Vincent Wolf-he's a super talented designer and is very generous with his secrets and tricks of the trade. He has a great blog too at www.vincentwolfblog.com 3. The Joy of Decorating by Phoebe Howard- just a gorgeous book. She's a wonderful designer, works with her husband who is a designer as well, and they have a new furniture...

Organizing can be something one can put off until stuff is piled everywhere and it becomes too overwhelming to think about. If you take on the task, however, it makes a world of difference in your life. I'm constantly finding new ways to organize clutter that piles up after a busy week. I've found that it's easiest to focus on one area of the house, and once that area is tidied up, move on to the next. Another tip I've found useful is to do all of the cleaning out, tossing, and donating first, then find your containers, bins, and baskets to store the remaining items. Make it look pretty by using labels and tags, keep things uniform in color, make use of pretty china cups and trays, and neatly line up objects that you can't hide away. Lastly, get yourself...

Can you HEAR us now? YES!
Please help us celebrate!
Learn the truth about David and Bathsheba.
Hear It Now From
Guest Speaker, Michael Loudermilk is a sit-up-and-take-notice, unusually appealing speaker who is now on staff at the church where Russell Kelfer taught for more than 20 years. His special gift is shepherding college and career age singles, the same age group from which the fledgling home Bible study led by Russell launched DTM.
While in high school, Michael attended a Young Life camp called Frontier Ranch, and it was there in the mountains of Colorado that he became a Christian. He still holds a very special place in his heart for ministries such as Young Life, Kanakuk, Pine Cove, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, etc. On scholarship to play ball at St. Mary's University, he was a part of the 2001 NCAA Division II National Championship Baseball Team. After 2 years at St. Mary's, Michael went on to earn his B.A. in history from Texas A&M University and then coached and taught for 8 years in the public school system.
In addition to playing and watching sports, he enjoys reading, traveling, going on mission trips, and going to U2 concerts. (He's seen them live 12 times). Most of all, though, Michael loves spending time with the girl her grew up across the street from – his wife, Victoria. They met in elementary school on Bus 84, and they were married in June of 2009. They have 2 sons, Elijah and Luke.

More truth about David and Bathsheba
SAFELY HOME. Author, Teacher, Counselor, Friend -- Russell Kelfer graduated to heaven in 2000, but all of these years later, his teaching is still alive and well.
Psalm 71, verse 8 comes to mind: "Now that I am old and gray, do not abandon me, O God. Let me proclaim, your power to this new generation, your mighty miracles to all who come after me."
As our first adventure in bringing you "Listen" on line, we combine the young and the old as Michael Loudermilk and Russell both address one of the best known stories in the Old Testament. Both men will leave you with great hope. David, king of Israel, was not only an adulterer, he was a murderer, but his enduring reputation is as "a man after God's own heart."
How Could David Have Done That ?!
See how that was possible,and what it means to you, as these two men take you behind the scenes of David's life.

Easy-to-follow video tutorials help you learn software, creative, and business skills.Become a member
In this movie, we're going to take a look at the request-response cycle in PHP. This cycle describes the way that a browser and a web server communicate to process user requests. Especially if you haven't done web development before, it can be useful to see this cycle laid out for you. To start with, we have our browser, and then we have the web server. Our browser makes a request to the web server. That's when you type in the domain of the site. So let's say that you type lynda.com, it sends a request to the lynda.com web server. In our case, that's going to be local host though.
And on that web server software needs to be there to intercept that request, and we have a HTTP Daemon called Apache that's there. And Apache see's the request and says oh, okay, I'm going to see if I have a file that will help me to respond to that request. It then goes to the file system and looks for a file. Let's call that file hello.php. Apache grabs that file and then says, okay, I see that it has .php at the end. There may be PHP here that needs processing. No problem. I will do that.
So it goes to process the PHP. In the course of doing that, it may need to go back and forth to the database a couple of times. It may need to request some information from the database, store information in the database. All sorts of things can happen as it goes back and forth between them. But, once it's done processing the PHP, there's one final step where it assembles the HTML that's going to be returned and then ships that back to the browser. And that's the response that the user seeks. So it's very important that you see this cyclical process from the browser to the web server where goes to the file system, processes the file, goes to the database as many times it needs during that process.
And then, finally, generates HTML that's sent back to the browser. There's no chance to process PHP after the HTML has been completely generated. There's no chance to do it once it's gotten to the user's browser or anything like that. It happens, only in this one spot. Where we process the PHP, after Apache goes and finds the file. This is often also referred to as the request-response cycle because we're making a request to the server and it's responding with something back to us. So, it's a request-response cycle. Now, while this may seem simple, I think it's very important for you to keep this in your head as a mental picture as we continue developing PHP. Because a lot of things we're going to learn, like header redirection, alpha buffering, setting cookies, all those kinds of things, are really going to be affected by this cycle.
So it's important to have a good firm understanding of this, right from the start.

Mourners carry the body of a soldier in a coffin during a funeral as they proceed to a cemetery in Gammarth in Tunis May 24, 2014. A Tunisian soldier was killed and five wounded on Friday in a landmine explosion near the Algerian border where security forces have been hunting Islamist militants, the army said. REUTERS/Stringer
TUNIS: Tunisia's Interior Ministry says gunmen attacked the home of the country's top security official, killing four of the police guarding it.
The statement said the attack on Interior Minister Lotfi Ben Jeddou's home in the southern city of Kasserine took place just before midnight Tuesday.
Kasserine, in Tunisia's impoverished interior, is not far from Mount Chaambi, where soldiers have been battling al-Qaida-linked extremists near the Algerian border. Two soldiers were killed Friday when their vehicle hit a mine on the mountain.
Tunisia recently announced a string of successful security operations against the Islamist radicals.

Where Things Come Back (original 2011; edition 2011)
by John Corey Whaley
Work details
Where Things Come Back by John Corey Whaley (2011)
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Cullen Witter's summer before his Senior year promises to be as boring as ever in small Arkansas. He works in a convenience store, has pretty normal parents, and a younger brother, Gabriel, who's so close to him, that people think they're twins.
Everything changes when a visiting ornithologist spots the long-extinct Lazarus Woodpecker, Cullen's cousin overdoses and, worst of all, his beloved brother disappears.
Cullen's story is cross-cut with the story of Benton Sage, a troubled missionary. Although totally dissimilar, the two stories eventually come together with satisfactory twists and turns.
The voice in this book is incredible: at turns, funny, sad, insightful. It is such a beautifully-wrought look at grief (Cullen for his brother) that it made this reader cry.
Teens may have trouble bringing the two stories together (Cullen's is more compelling than Benton's) but those who persevere will be rewarded with a great Coming of Age tale.
I loved John Corey Whaley's new book, _Noggin_, and after I finished it, I realized I needed to go back and read _Where Things Come Back_, his first novel, which had been on my "to read" list for several years.
As the novel opens, Cullen Witter is in the local morgue, identifying the body of his older cousin, Oslo, who's died of an overdose. To Cullen, Oslo's death is more evidence of the dead-end nature of his small Arkansas town, which no one seems capable of leaving or transcending.
Then two things happen that shake up both Cullen's family and Lily, Arkansas, that summer: first, Cullen's younger brother Gabriel vanishes without a trace, and then an ornithological zealot named John Barling shows up, saying he's had a vision that the long-extinct Lord God bird--the ivory-billed woodpecker--has come back to life and is living on the river near Lily. News media and birdwatchers pour into town, searching for a bird that probably doesn't exist, while the search for the very real Gabriel leads nowhere.
Whaley's novel is incredibly well structured, and the many plot lines and characters that seem so disparate at the outset eventually come together in a convincing and unexpected way. While I didn't find this book as humorous or as touching, ultimately, as _Noggin_, I really enjoyed it. Whaley has a gift for portraying the interior life of his teenage-boy characters, and especially their oddball friendships; in _Where Things Come Back_, we see how such friendships can go horribly wrong, in one scenario, and also how they can be a lifeline, in the case of the friendship between Cullen and his friend Lucas.
I had some trouble with the pacing in certain parts of this book, but I thought it had a great plot. I gasped at least ten times while reading it; everything fit together surprisingly well while still conveying emotion and using realistic characters.
I don't use star ratings, so please read my review!
(Description nicked from B&N.com.)
"In the remarkable, bizarre, and heart-wrenching summer before Cullen Witter's senior year of high school, he is forced to examine everything he thinks he understands about his small and painfully dull Arkansas town. His cousin overdoses; his town becomes absurdly obsessed with the alleged reappearance of an extinct woodpecker; and most troubling of all, his sensitive, gifted fifteen-year-old brother, Gabriel, suddenly and inexplicably disappears.
Meanwhile, the crisis of faith spawned by a young missionary's disillusion in Africa prompts a frantic search for meaning that has far-reaching consequences. As distant as the two stories initially seem, they are woven together through masterful plotting and merge in a surprising and harrowing climax."
Okay, first of all, you should know that this review has spoilers. I can't think of any way to talk about the book in any depth without talking about certain twists that take place, so you have been warned. HERE BE SPOILERS.
To those of you still with us after that dire warning, you should know that I'm not entirely sure if I liked this book or not. I think I get what Whaley was trying to accomplish with this narrative, and I applaud him for working in as many layers of story as he did. However, I also think there were some flaws in his execution that kept me from really enjoying the book.
One of the things that I think worked well was the inclusion of the different points of view for different characters. The chapters alternate between Cullen, who gives us the first-person view of the plot, and Benton and Cabot, whose stories are narrated in third person. Even in Cullen's chapters, though, there are moments of third-person point of view, which I eventually came to think of as dissociative episodes. More on that later.
The Lazarus woodpecker, the bird that everyone is so excited about, seems to be both a symbol of hope and a symbol of delusion. Initially, the town embraces the idea that this supposedly extinct bird has been found alive, and they look forward to the benefits that the town will reap in tourism and national attention. By the end of the book, it has been proven that the woodpecker is not, after all, still around, and the town is now in the grip of crushing disappointment. In fact, Cullen characterizes the Lazarus woodpecker as a false hope in the final chapter.
Unfortunately, being so firm in stating that the woodpecker never was real kind of ruins what Whaley tries to do on the last page, which is to introduce ambiguity as to whether or not Cullen's brother Gabriel comes back home. I say this because I think the author was trying to have his readers cling to that little bit of hope—and indeed, in reading other reviews of this book, many readers did assume that Gabriel made it home safely. The thing is that there are many clues to point to the fact that he doesn't, and that detracts from the ending. The entire book seems to run on the theme of second chances—the woodpecker popping up and Gabriel coming home being the two big ones—but then the author blatantly says that there are none.
On top of this, there is a dangling plotline—or, if not dangling, one that really doesn't fit into the rest of the story. Cullen's cousin Oslo dies of an overdose at the start of the book, and there really doesn't seem to be any reason for him to be there, or to have died, or to even be mentioned. It does cause Oslo's mother, Cullen's aunt, to descend into terrible grieving; however, she doesn't factor into the plot much either. In fact, given that the novel is supposed to feature the mystery around Gabriel's disappearance, throwing another family tragedy into the mix seems clunky.
Finally, readers are going to get more than eighty percent of the way through this book before they find out that the two timelines being followed are not concurrent at all. The Benton/Cabot timeline begins a full year before Cullen's, and it was really jarring to see the point where the stories intersect, because it is completely different from what you've been led to believe. I'm all for twists in stories, but they need to be set up properly so that when they're brought to light, the reader doesn't have a "WTF?" moment and go searching back through the book to see if they missed something important. That's pretty much what I did, and I was annoyed to realize that the moment of intersection came out of the clear blue sky.
So, here's what I think the author was doing: he was writing a book in which the first person narrator (Cullen) is a man who is looking back at a particular summer in his childhood. This older Cullen is in therapy, as borne out by his frequent mentions of a Dr. Webb whom he speaks with about things. Cullen is chronicling not just the summer that his brother vanished, but also the summer when he himself had a psychotic break. Cullen often speaks in third person during his chapters, sometimes spinning out elaborate fantasy sequences, and sometimes describing "real life" events that he's part of. His final episode is on the final page, and it consists of him fantasizing that his brother has returned, and doing so in such a powerful way that he reacts to the phantoms he sees in his head.
Is this a lot to read into a short young adult novel? Maybe. But the other choice is to say that Whaley put in mentions of a doctor and dissociative episodes that have no bearing on the story. This is possible as well. Personally, my brain tries to make sense of things, and this is the supplemental tale that I told myself after finishing the book. I have no clue if I'm correct or not. I'm not entirely sure that it matters.
Did I like this book? I'm not sure. Did I appreciate the attempt at this particular brand of storytelling? Yes. Do I think that the author knocked it out of the park? No. Do I think that it was worth the read? Yes. Make of all of that what you will. I suspect this one will simmer in my thoughts for a while, regardless of any opinion I might have on the matter.
This review originally appeared on Owlcat Mountain on June 2, 2014.
I was not as blown away as everyone else by this book, but I did appreciate it's literary merit. Loved the ending, which redeemed the whole thing for me though.

I feel great! It was a wonderful experience!
Cindy & Rick, with your breakfast you spoiled us, with your helpful directions, you showed us places we may otherwise not have discovered. The peace in the house gave us rest. The little frogs in the forest sang our good night song and the wonderful song of the birds was there when we woke up. The exotic fruits on the table showed us that we were far away from home, still we felt at home. We will definitley stay with you again, if we can make it to your area again in future! Thank you very much!
Excellent Stay! Stayed in Ohia B&B for our honeymoon for 4 nights in March 2014. The place was fabulous! Nice and comfortable room with amenities provided conveniently by Cindy & Rick. Fantastic breakfast prepared daily. Enjoyed the morning birds chirping everyday.
Amazing experience at Ohia House! Our time at Ohia House was excellent- the breakfasts were amazing and delicious, the room was comfortable and spacious, the location was beautiful, and the company was fantastic!!!
Lovely stopover in southeast end of Big Island Convenient to volcanoes, restaurants and touring this end of island. Relaxing stay in quiet, private house. It felt separate from main living quarters. We loved the huge porch where we were served a generous, scrumptious breakfast. Thanks!
We've found that customer reviews are very helpful in keeping our business thriving. We would truly appreciate a review from you!

Hong Kong, 1988 (MIFF 1988, Asian Cinema Showcase)
Director: Stanley Kwan
It's 1934, downtown Hong Kong and Fleur, (Anita Mui) an aspiring opera singer turned prostitute is entertaining her special friend" Chan (Leslie Cheung), the languid, pampered, opium-puffing son of a good family. This affair blossoms until the couple's desire to wed meets with stern opposition from his right-minded parents and the impossibility of the situation leads the thwarted lovers to stage a double suicide pact. This fatal act turns out to be a ceremony which she bravely honours but which he shirks, losing nerve at the last moment.
Having agreed to meet up with her cherished partner m the underworld, ever-faithful Fleur waits in spiritual limbo for years and years. It's now 1987 and the long dead Fleur reappears back on her home turf as a ghost, confronting a pair of rather naive yuppie journalists, spoiled urbanites, who in effect represent' typical',' modern" Hong Kong movie characters.
Thus the movie's point of view is fairly complex and about certain kinds of cultural conflict. The young late 80s moderns are comparatively green, deprived of specific social identity whilst the thirties characters can be regarded in a sense, as victims of their own rich(er) traditions, especially as these are characterised in the observation of particular types of coded ritual and behaviour.
"Rouge is a richly textured, almost contemplative ghost story/romance that offers an authentic whiff of the uncanny. It's really a movie about the ways in which the past haunts the present in a city like Hong Kong. As the storyline shifts back and forth between the decades, associations and implications pile up. A pop fantasy that pales before the ghostliness of real life " -David Chute 'Film Comment' June 1988

- Innovative and interesting menuOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 10/18/2014Fantastic foods and flavors. A wonderful menu. Everything we tried was exquisite.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food but not the wineHariJVIPDined on 10/18/2014The food and service at All Spice has always been fabulous and deserves their Michelin star. Our only disappointment was the Bordeaux blend from "Austria" we had which was quite unappetizing and not what I would have expected from a Michelin star restaurant.Special Features:
- Unique experience - kudosNeverAgainDined on 10/14/2014This was a delightful experience. Quiet - so good for either romance or business conversation. We stayed for hours. My only concern was our waiter was so eager for us to order, including not letting us order appetizers prior to ordering dinner - said the kitchen liked to see the entire order at once. SO that didn't feel like high end service. Also he kept coming back for drink orders, and "are you ready to order yet"...so I felt rushed, and finally at the end asked if he needed our table. He said he would check. When he did not, we just relaxed a bit more, but we did not feel welcomed to sit, relax, enjoy a drink and appetizer, then settle on the main course, etc. BUT...the food and atmosphere is SO creative, I would recommend.Special Features:
- Best local restauantJudyVIPDined on 10/7/2014Allspice never fails to wow my family and friends when I can get in to introduce them to this wonderful, delicious innovative food. From Shoshanna's welcoming smile thRough dessert, it just gets better and better. Take your time to savor each dish (Imrecommend sharing),Special Features:
- my new favorite placetuttoatavolaDined on 10/4/2014Such a warm welcome, thoughtful nuanced preparation and presentation of the food, and spot on attentive service. Fancy and relaxed. It's so easy to slow down and savor each bite, while enjoying the moment with your companion(s). I lived the thinking behind the combinations of flavors in the dishes.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- TerrificShroomieDined on 9/27/2014Top notch from start to finish. Great service, cuisine and ambiance.Special Features:
- Good Not GreatJRo150VIPDined on 9/24/2014I applaud All Spice for what it is trying to be - a restaurant in an area somewhat devoid of fine dining. But the menu is reads more like what you'd expect to find in a spice pantry - every dish was laden with excessive ingredients and flavors, with no real focus to the final preparation. So while it is clear that the chef can cook and is creative, the execution didn't work. For the prices being charged, there are simply better options.
- Best resto aroundOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 9/23/2014The food keeps me coming here for a special treat. Great preparation, complex favors with Indian influence. This is not Indian American, it's gourmet food. Love the atmosphere, and service was great.Special Features:
- 3rd time, can't wait for 4th.SalesScottVIPDined on 9/19/2014I have eaten at All Spice three times, and every meal has been excellent. While small, the wine list is reasonably priced and has an selection of quality low profile wines. It is well worth any effort it takes to eat here.Special Features:
- Second time was a charm.KUISHINBODined on 9/12/2014My wife and I have started a tradition of coming here for our anniversary last year but honestly, we should come here more often. Considering the fact that this is a Michelin Star rated establishment, pricing is quite reasonable compared to the "high profile competition". This time for appetizers, we had slow cooked pork belly and scallops presented so artistically it was a shame to disassemble it. For main course, we had the sea bass and lamb loin. All of them were very satisfying except for the fact that the scallops were a bit dry. Now for the sweet tooth in all of us, their signature dessert Kulfi is to die for and their home made ice creams and caramel custard will whet your sweet appetite no doubt. Foodie Heaven!Special Features:
- MarkSDined on 9/5/2014Wife, son, and myself came here for my birthday. We brought some wine and corkage was priced moderately. We shared 4 appetisers, each had our own entree and dessert. Everything was delicious. Of special note were the seafood appetisers. My wife had the fish dish which she loved. I had lamb and my son had venison. Both were very good. Desserts were also very good. My complements to the chef and staff at the restaurant.Special Features:
- Uniquely delicious..JennyBeeAyVIPDined on 9/5/2014This is my second visit to All Spice in one week. My first meal here was so unique & delicious that I had to find a way to come back again. My second time around did not disappoint either. The Chef uses ingredients that are top quality and are combined in ways that are creative and so flavorful. The service was excellent both times as well..professional & friendly at the same time. This is not my last visit.Special Features:

You'll have a cozy dinner with just a few other tables.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful hidden gemGrillguyVIPDined on 8/14/2014Very interesting menu. Wagyu beef was wonderful and so was the sea bass. What really made both dishes was the sauce and how they brought out the best of both entrees and just worked well. You must also try snow globe for dessert. Very creative and delicious!Special Features:

- You need to go here...RossbossDined on 7/31/2014This place exceeded my expectations - it's haute cuisine in a part of San Mateo you don't expect, a victorian home set back from the street amidst strip malls and the busy stretch of El Camino between 92 and downtown. The food is world class, the indian flavors are familiar but this is not indian food - artfully giving us a blend with local, California grown produce and butchery. If there's anything at all to point out, it's that they need to step up the wine list - it's small and uninteresting. The place is very classy - with 231 Ellsworth now closed, is this now the finest dining for San Mateo?Special Features:
- Cute, cozy spot in San MateoCheriDined on 7/30/2014A unique dining spot, tucked away off El Camino in San Mateo, that serves a "New American exotic" menu inspired by French and Californian cuisine. Try a carafe of their own wine, and don't skip dessert. Excellent service in an intimate and cozy ambience in a small house. I'll be returning, again and again.Special Features:

We each were pleased with our choices. I could have made a meal with the wonderful appetizers and delicious desserts.Special Features:
- Still the bestHybridDined on 7/26/2014All Spice continues to be my wife and I's go-to spot and why not? They never disappoint while keeping it fresh & interesting. As always, everything was tasty, but the dish that stood out this time was the dessert...a flan-like custard with a piece of peanut-bacon-brittle laid atop. Words alone cannot describe its mouthgasmic deliciousness.Special Features:

- Quaint ambiance, superb foodjar2Dined on 7/2/2014Upon arrival at All Spice for our mommy-daughter date, my mom & I were greeted by a hostess who opened the front door with a smile & a "welcome." We were ushered to a window table & offered menus. Even though my mom does not eat red meat & most seafood, there were plenty of tasty-looking options for her to choose from. As for me, who eats almost everything, I had trouble choosing. Eventually, my mom selected the makhani vegetable pot pie, & I, after consulting with our phenomenal server, Johnny, chose the veal cheeks. We also ordered the Ma Mere Indian bread fritter. With every bite we each fell into a state of euphoria. The food was outstanding, & the service matched! Reservations must be made in advance, though the wait is well worth it!Special Features:
- sanmateojoeDined on 7/1/2014We loved the unusual salad special (endive-based with blue cheese, nectarines, several distinct sauces, etc.) and especially the appetizer, a chaat with various beans and goat cheese, unlike anything we'd had before; the salted rosemary crème caramel and dark chocolate kulfi for dessert were also outstanding. Our entrees, the lamb loin and seabass, while reasonably tasty, were much less distinctive and thus a touch disappointing in the context of the wonderful starters and desserts. One of the better restaurants in town.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great foodsendokgarpuDined on 6/27/2014The food was great. Nice ambiance. Very romantic. Really good place for a date.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- excellentbruceVIPDined on 6/21/2014The food was inventive and excellent even when there was a kitchen mishap and one entree was not ordered, they went out of their way to remedy the situation- above and beyond. This indicates a well run restaurant which treats the customers well. Will definitely return.Special Features:
- Well Deserved Michelin StarReviewerVIPDined on 6/21/2014One of the best Michelin rated restaurants we've been to in a while, although more contemporary American fusion than Indian. Food was absolutely delicious, with one Indian entree on the menu (gosht aka "curry") and one appetizer with Indian inspired spices. Consistent excellence from dish to dish. The restaurant is located in an old house, left standing alone in an parking lot after 100 years of development. It's quaint and the perfect setting. This is what Michelin is all about. Blew away Atelier Crenn, La Folie, Aziza, Gary Danko, Boulevard, SPQR, Spruce, and even State Bird (close), although I like those restaurants. I'm VERY picky about food, and I could eat here again, and again, and again.Special Features:
- family friendly fun placeNYSFConnDined on 6/14/2014Very professional staff as we were seated right away and no wait, staff very open to questions (as MIchelin rated)--wait staff is unmatched. Family friendly (no ostentatious looks)=neighbouring table had stroller and "3 kids"= very tolerable and not at all looked down upon by staff. Food excellent--best described as "Indian/French (mostly)/American fusion with incredible French sauces-definitely classically trained chef (i.e. New York, Paris, etc.) Definitely check this hidden gem out! BTW Book way ahead-very intimate place, seats fill quickly.Special Features:

Said Iraqi Finance Minister Rafie al-Issawi said Iraq has asked the participating countries at the top of Baghdad on Tuesday to exempt Baghdad
Of the debt owed them before the invasion led by the United States, and the consequent occupation in 2003.
He appealed to other countries Issawi creditor to follow the example of the UAE and Algeria, which agreed to drop their debts owed by Iraq.
He said al-Issawi, the first day of the summit, which is sponsored by the Arab League, and the first held in Iraq for several years: "We have asked Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Libya, Jordan, Sudan, Egypt and Morocco to help Iraq to shut down file his debts."
The member states of the Paris Club, composed of 19 rich nations, had agreed in 2004 to drop 80 percent of its debt to Iraq, estimated at up to $40 billion to help him to recover after the invasion and occupation, which shot down the regime of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, and the subsequent years of sectarian war and bloody violence.
Issawi said: "It needs more cooperation from Arab countries on the subject of debt forgiveness," and expressed his thanks to the UAE and Algeria, for agreeing to drop all of their debts owed by Iraq.
And began to Baghdad summit, which takes three days and the first in Iraq for nearly two decades, and the first hosted by the Shi'ite leader in Iraq's modern history is the Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, a meeting of finance ministers.
The Iraqi government has tightened security measures in Baghdad, even seemed to be strangled.
The government declared a public holiday for five days, and spread hundreds of patrols and detachments of police and army, and put dozens of checkpoints and control.
Is scheduled to meet in Baghdad 22 leaders or their representatives at the summit which is expected to dominate the Syrian crisis and developments.
The Iraq's foreign debt in 2003 amounted to between 130 and 140 billion dollars, dropped the most in the 2004 Paris Club agreement.
The Paris Club agreement required Iraq to reach similar agreements with its other creditors, but some trade creditors have obtained court order to obtain the debt, and refuse to join the agreement.
The debts owed by Iraq, Saudi Arabia last year, up to $30 billion, and Kuwait up to $22 billion represents compensation for the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990.

First thing I would like to thank you for this excellent podcasts which is my favorite technical cast ever.
I only have one question about what you said about MVC and and the replacement on classical ASP.NET web forms,
Is MVC applicable to build web forms on sharepoint on not?
Great PodCast, I have been beating myself up wondering the best use of my custom ModelBinder to bind to a fairly complex view. I can now see that having a ViewModel that uses the default ModelBinder for this sort of thing, is a much better idea.
David R
Excellent discussion on 'M' in MVC, it has given me a better view of creating ViewModels vs using the Domain Models. And if I heard it correctly you can use WebForms in MVC, never knew that before and will be looking at that.

"My Cousin Vinny" is a movie that meanders along going nowhere in particular, and then lightning strikes. I didn't get much involved in it, and yet individual moments and some of the performances were very funny. It's the kind of movie home video was invented for: Not worth the trip to the theater, but slam it into the VCR and you get your rental's worth.
The film stars Joe Pesci as a New Yorker who thinks a black knit shirt under a black leather jacket, if set off by a gold chain around the neck, is elegant courtroom attire. He might be right if he were a defendant in the Bronx, but the movie takes place in Alabama, and he's the defense attorney. His cousin (Ralph Macchio) and a friend (Mitchell Whitfield), two innocent college students on their way to school, have been charged with the murder of a convenience store owner. The circumstantial evidence looks damning, but the worst thing they have going against them is Pesci's sweeping lack of legal experience.
Although the film is set in the South and has an early shot of a sign that says "Free Horse Manure," this is not another one of your Dixie-bashing movies. The judge (Fred Gwynne, his face longer than ever) and prosecutor (Lane Smith) are civilized men who aren't trying to railroad anybody. It's just that after gunshots were heard, three different witnesses made a positive identification on the two suspects, fleeing the store in a distinctive late-1960s Buick convertible.
Pesci, who is the Macchio character's cousin Vinny, has finally passed the bar on his sixth attempt. He has no courtroom experience, and indeed no experience at all except with a few personal injury cases. He arrives in town with his girlfriend, named Mona Lisa Vito and played by Marisa Tomei as a woman who has a certain legal potential trapped inside a street-smart personality.
Pesci is so inexperienced he doesn't even know enough to stand when the judge enters the courtroom, and Whitfield, in desperation, hires another lawyer (Austin Pendleton) who thinks it a triumph if he can successfully complete a sentence.
The movie saves most of its best laughs for the long concluding courtroom sequence, in which one witness after another hammers together the prosecution case, and the innocent youths clearly seem headed for the electric chair. Gwynne's dour work in the courtroom scenes is especially good; in the annals of Judge Reaction Shots, which are a performance genre all their own, his work ranks high.
But we never feel much for, or about, the two accused prisoners. Macchio, who has been effective in "The Karate Kid" (1984) and "Crossroads," is used here essentially as a foil. He and Whitfield sit at the defense table and look worried, and that's about that.
Pesci and Tomei, on the other hand, create a quirky relationship that I liked. Neither one is played as a dummy. They're smart, in their own ways, but involved in a legal enterprise they are completely unprepared for. Tomei's surprise appearance as an expert witness is a high point, and left me feeling I would like to see this couple again. Maybe in a screenplay that was more focused.
This message came to me from a reader named Peter Svensland. He and a fr...
