Doane College in southeast Nebraska has announced it will begin offering a new three-year undergraduate degree in computer science, math and history.
Doane says it is the first private liberal arts and sciences college in Nebraska to offer a three-year undergraduate degree program that comes backed with a graduation guarantee. The program would save students and their parents on the cost of a college degree.
Students must apply for the program, and eligibility and acceptance are based on GPA, ACT/SAT scores and credits earned prior to enrollment.
The program is set to launch in the fall of 2014, with plans to expand to more areas of study in the future.

In Topic: Method Confusion
Posted 2 Dec 2012That is actually what I had initially but I thought it was wrong, because I tried to add coins to my purse using the addCoin() method in my tester class and I was getting an error. Unless I am doing it wrong.
public class PurseTester { public static void main(String[] args) { Purse[] purseOne = new Purse[5]; Coin dime = new Coin(10, "dime"); Coin dime2 = new Coin(10, "dime"); Coin quarter = new Coin(25, "quarter"); Coin quarter2 = new Coin(25, "quarter"); Coin nickel = new Coin(5, "nickel"); Coin penny = new Coin(1, "penny"); Purse.addCoin(dime); //Here is the error } }
It tells me I cannot make a static reference to a non-static method.

Dude, she getting so fat she has baboobs.

gigantic bouncy testicles on baboons that defy gravity and eventually land the baboons on pluto. The baboobs are the size of yoga balls and produce gigantic sperm used for transportation.
The baboobs on that baboon were huge!

Chloe Grace Moretz Confronts Her Own Mortality

East-West begins in 1946, as a French woman (Sandrine Bonnaire) accompanies her physician husband (Oleg Menchikov) back to his Russian homeland, in response to Stalin's campaign for repatriating those who fled the revolution. They immediately discover Stalin's overtures are simply a sadistic come-on. Nearly all the returnees are executed or thrown into camps, and only Alexei's valuable medical skills save him and Marie from such a fate. Still, the pressures of living in a bleak, repressive country quickly frays the fabric of their relationship. Director Regis Wargnier made a splash back in 1993 with Indochine, which won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. East-West, which was nominated this year but lost, is another drama about how political circumstances can dominate personal relations. Despite largely first-rate work from the cast (which includes Catherine Deneuve in a small supporting role) the film's portrayal of postwar Russia is so heavy-handed that it casts suspicions on its historical reliability. No one is going to suggest Stalinist Russia was truly a jolly worker's paradise, but Wargnier paints a picture that seems like something from a horror film. It would be nice if he had provided more historical evidence that the movie isn't just an overheated anticommunist fantasy, but his only cited sources are anecdotes by a few aging survivors of the repatriation.

After studying at Cass Tech High School and Wayne State University, I have enjoyed teaching privately, in groups, and at churches, Public and private schools. I try to expand my skills as well as the number of musical offerings I can teach. It is important to tailor each lesson to the student's individual needs and ability to ensure that their experience is as rewarding as possible!
*** Lesson Details ***
You will learn to play with ease and proficiency while learning the Music Theory that supports your plating. You will also receive ear training, which will make learning more rapid, and more thorough.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Open living room/dining room: piano and organ, couches and chairs, table and chairs, parents can sit in on lesson
*** Travel Equipment ***
I provide printed learning supplements. The student should have his/her own instrument, so they can practice.
*** Specialties ***
Gospel, Classical
Teacher / Musician / Producer
Playing by Ear
Pretty much everyone can play by ear. So I help you to explore your talent, reach your musical goals and to create and perform music as a real and beautiful part of your life. Making music should not be a boring job. Rather, it should be something you can't wait to do. A way to get in touch with the rest of the universe. You will also learn to read and write, but it won't get in the way of your music.
Your music. Instantly.
We use recording as a powerful tool to help you listen and improve.
Tired of crappy tabs? Struggling to capture your song? No worries.
Learn a process, instead of a lesson. Apply it anywhere.
Go from musical idea to music, fast.
Get to the groove in 2 minutes or less. In any software.
SONGLab Studio. The antidote to rote.
Special Needs?
Everyone's needs are special. If your child has been diagnosed ADHD or as a "Sensory kid", music can be a joyful and rewarding way to see real growth and make a wonderful experience for parent and child. We help with the Proprioceptive and Vestibular senses in a fun and therapeutic way.
Just Google "BrainVolts" for a tremendous study from Northwestern University on the amazing effects of music study!
Since a very young age I have loved to improvise and to create music. It is very satisfying to pass this on to others who are full of music inside but may not know how to get it out. If you wish that you or your child could get some help creating your own music as well as playing the great music already written, perhaps we should be talking.
I am from Canada, and I have been a professional musician since 1970. I studied music performance in school, piano with the Royal Conservatory of Toronto and Music Education at Queens University. I have toured with national acts, produced dozens of recordings of all kinds and played, arranged and conducted music on cruise ships all over the world.
Music is my life. Bringing other people's skills to a higher level is what I do best.
Tell me what you want to accomplish, either for yourself or your child. I look forward to speaking with you.
Warm regards,
A note about allergens:
I teach at my home and at my studio. At home we have a very friendly dog (Vinnie) and a cat (Julian) who sleeps all day. If you have allergies, we will study at my Troy studio which is allergen-free. Unless you love animals. In that case, you will get to meet Vinnie, the most kid-friendly, loves-everybody, most gentle little guy you will ever meet. I put his picture up so you can see him.
Teaching teachers
Several excellent teachers I know who have been teaching music for many years were frustrated by not being able to play without a sheet of music. They have found satisfying and positive results from this approach.
Wouldn't it be great to be gifted? In fact... It turns out that choices lead to habits.
Habits become talents. Talents are labeled gifts.
You're not born this way, you get this way.
~ Seth Godin
*** Lesson Details ***
Children don't learn to read before they can talk. So why should anyone have to try to read before they can play?
That is how music is taught, traditionally and why a huge percentage of students just quit or have a miserable time with piano lessons. Music should be fun. Period.
My only real job is to make sure you have fun and want to learn more. Then you will do the rest. you will astonish yourself and everyone around you!
In a traditional music education, reading the works of others is the focus, with no encouragement to improvise or to play by ear. In our community, there is a prestigious, private college prep school that charges just under $80 per hour for traditional private music lessons.
My method is every bit the equal of that school for those who are drawn to express themselves playing by ear. You will still learn all the core skills needed to be a well-rounded musician.
Music study helps people young and old to overcome shyness and build confidence. It empowers them as they refine their special talents.
We will always have a lot of fun, but there is a lot to do, so we need to be efficient and not waste time. My teaching method is a combination of the best methods I have found. It is backed up with the same solid principles that I received when I was a student myself. If you choose to continue and pursue a classical education at a high level, you will be well-prepared.
Though you'll receive serious critiques from me, I always uplift and encourage. Positive energy is the ticket.
My Method: Listen, Sing, Clap, Play, Read and Write. With these tools you can look deeper into the elements that make up music. Folk, jazz, pop, rock or classical; all Western music is derived from the same principles. We will study ear training from a wonderful ear training book by a famous guitarist. It'�s simple: you learn all the theory so you will be at the top of your game, but always have fun doing it. For notation, we will use The Semper Note Speller. For scales, we have the famous Brown Scale Book.
We use recording as a tool to help you hear how you sound and we always encourage you to express yourself with improvisation. In many cases, you will have tracks to practice with. We also use apps for your phone that really help. A guitar tuner to nail down vocal pitch, as well as a metronome app that is with you wherever you go. If you have a minute anywhere you can get in some good practice time. So we truly have the best of all worlds: playing from music and learning to play by ear! If you stick with it and do the work, the end result will be that you can always just sit down and play, whether or not you have any music in front of you!
On our first lesson we will do a duet jam session together and you will not believe how great you sound!
The Big Picture
Although a percentage of students may become a concert pianist, there are a multitude of other ways to become involved with music. Whether you are looking at music as a profession or as a hobby, we let parents know of the many choices available so that they can make good decisions, for themselves and for their children.
Having fun as you improve is a big priority. I also teach songwriting, singing, music recording and performance, as well as piano.
Remember, a piano should be an irresistible invitation, not an obstacle.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Troy studio: A digital keyboard in a professional recording control-room environment at our media production studio. The studio is near Big Beaver and Stephenson Hwy.
Home studio: An acoustic piano and recording studio environment at my home in Franklin/Beverly Hills.
*** Travel Equipment ***
If you are taking any kind of music lesson, we recommend a tuned piano or digital keyboard, preferably with at least 76 full-sized keys.
If you like, I can suggest several different models of keyboard that I have researched and of which I approve. They range from an inexpensive but effective starter keyboard for ear training and just plain fun to an 88 note weighted keyboard for more expressive practice.
*** Specialties ***
I teach people of all ages first to play by ear and to have fun while they study. Then I back up ear training with solid theory so they can read and write music. In school I studied many traditional methods and I have distilled my own distinct method from them. Though I am classically trained, I specialize in improvisation.
Scott began his music career at Berklee College of Music in 1985 and continued his education at WMU and WSU as a Jazz Performance - Composition Major. He has studied privately with Ken Taft, Gene Butler, Mikhal Caldwell and Joe LoDuca.
As a performer Scott has been in a wide variety of bands and is a founding member of the Frank Zappa Tribute 'Ugly Radio Rebellion' and Stevie Ray Vaughan Tribute 'CrossFire'. With 28 years experience as a music educator Scott has done an estimated 20,000 private lessons as well as classes, clinics, College Prep courses and is a member of The American Guild of Music. He is a versatile teacher and motivated performer and is fluent in most every style of music.
"I can teach you everything you need to know to accomplish your musical goals!!! Music should be fun and my approach is to ensure a rewarding experience for every individual student"
*** Lesson Details ***
Lessons can be scheduled for once a week or every 2 weeks, 30 min - 45 min and 1 hr available.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Home Studio: a dedicated music room with a baby grand piano, electric guitars; acoustic guitars, bass, drums... full digital recording studio and rehearsal space!
*** Travel Equipment ***
I provide all teaching materials and personal equipment, the student needs to have their own instrument... guitar rental is available!
*** Specialties ***
I am open to any and all methods, genres and styles...
I have more availability than is shown here and try to be flexible with scheduling...
I am a singer with over 10 years of classical training and have been teaching voice for several years. I have performed in opera, oratorio, musical theater, jazz, folk and Irish ensembles. I can teach repertoire in French, German, Italian and Irish Gaelic. I can also teach beginning piano which is great for some of the younger students who aren't ready for full voice lessons and want to combine both.
I have years of experience singing professionally. I have been lucky enough to tour North America, Asia and Europe with different Irish groups form small bands to performing 8 shows a week in the touring company of the Broadway show Riverdance.
Singing is a huge part of who I am, I have been doing it since before I can remember and I love sharing what I have learned with my students.
*** Lesson Details ***
I will tailor my lessons to meet your individual goals. We will work on repertoire you are excited about while also working on pieces that challenge you. The lessons will be rooted in classical technique because I believe it will make you a better singer while maintaining a healthy voice no matter which style we are working on.
In addition to technique, we will work on performance skills, basic music theory, sight-singing and ear-training because I think that musicianship is an important factor in becoming a great singer.
I am a positive and supportive teacher and will try to put you at ease immediately because I know singing and performing can make people feel vulnerable.
Most importantly, I want my students to express themselves through their music.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Lessons in the living room, piano
*** Travel Equipment ***
I would need a piano or keyboard.
*** Specialties ***
I have studying classical voice extensively and taught it along with techniques for musical theater and pop. I have also instructed on traditional Irish singing. I can teach repertoire in French, German, Italian and Irish Gaelic.
I love teaching, simply love teaching! I teach students of all ages. I teach piano, voice, clarinet, and saxophone. I have taught for over 25 years. My students have lots of opportunities for performance, if they choose to. We perform at Nursing Homes, Retirements, Festival of Trees, and Seasonal Recitals. There are at least 2 recitals a year, 1 at Christmas and 1 in the Spring, if enough participation, we often have one in summer with a party afterward. We also participate in the Michigan Music Association competition. I have also had students perform in Disney World in Florida!!! I have been in many musicals such as Annie, Gypsy, Rock Around the Clock. I have put on solo recitals. I am a member of my church choir. My students and I have fun while we are learning music! It is the best job ever.
*** Lesson Details ***
I use a variety of curriculum, which includes classical, broadway, some pop, new age, and jazz. After 3 to 6 months you will have a basic understanding of your instrument and will be ready to take off! I do ask students to keep track of your practicing so you can see your progress.
For piano:
I use the Alfred Basic Books for beginners and then we move to the Keith Snell books along with other supplemental books. If a student already is using a book, generally we will finish that book up so they won't have to purchase another set of books.
For Saxophone and Clarinet:
I use the Rubank books along with other supplemental books
For Voice:
I use the 24 Italian Songs and Arias, The Young Singer, and various Broadway books. Any pop music must be purchased by student as there is just way too much to chose from for me to have a lot of it.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Home Studio: in living room with 2 pianos at entrance of house. Seating is available as well toys and a table for siblings.
*** Specialties ***
Voice - Classical & Broadway
Piano - classical
Clarinet - classical and pop
Saxophone - classical, pop, and some jazz
For 3 years, excellence has been the core value in my teaching. I give the courage and confidence to all my students that they can conquer and accomplish their goals in music if they remain focused, determined, and eager to learn. All of my music lessons are done in a fun, engaging environment that is very different from sitting in a classroom listening to lectures for hours on end. I make the student feel as if they are already in the drivers seat as the musician they desire to be. With my dynamic music training, students will walk away knowing that they are ready musicians, preparing to wow the crowd with excellence. Why would you want to go elsewhere when you have the best musical success system right in front of you?
*** Lesson Details ***
Each lesson, I tend to focus first on all theory behind what's being played, followed by incorporating that theory into a musical piece. Each exercise is done in a fun, hands-on matter.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Music theory books, manuscript paper, and adventures in singing book
*** Travel Equipment ***
Music Theory Worksheets, Voice lesson worksheets
*** Specialties ***
Piano, Voice, Music Theory
"Steven is very professional and extremely helpful. He always has a smile on and is serious about helping you phrase the music. I would highly recommend him to anyone."

Found January 24, 2013 on Fox Sports:
PLAYERS: Trevor Bayne, Josh Wise, Blake Koch, Ricky Stenhouse, Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
Trevor Bayne certainly hasn't been idle in his hours out of the race car. In December, he showed that racers are indeed athletes. He trained with fellow NASCAR drivers Josh Wise and Blake Koch to run the Sprint Triathlon in Key West. Fla. The event included a 20-kilometer bike ride, 0.75-K swim and 5-K run. It all started as a simple way to exercise while hanging out with his friends. "Josh Wise, Blake Koch, Scott Speed, we all hop on our road bikes and go ride for two hours and you can talk and still breath and not be dying or anything like that, so the bike riding is what I enjoy," Bayne said. "And once we felt like we were getting strong at that, then we started running some and swimming some and just doing different training so you don't get bored. We're so competitive we wanted to be able to compete in something." That something turned into the sprint triathlon. Bayne said he thinks they started training for it in June -- and could turn into training for lengthier events if time permits. "Nothing too crazy, but it was enough to get your heart going," he said. "It was a start. This year we'd like to do -- I think Josh and Blake are doing a full Ironman, but I'm not doing that. No way, I don't have enough time to train for that, so maybe a half at the end of the year." Although he failed to mention it, according to the official results online, Bayne finished second in his age category with a time of 1 hour, 22 minutes, 41.96 seconds. As he considers more events of that nature this season, spare time will be more rare. He's racing full time in the Nationwide Series and running a limited schedule in the Cup ranks. Bayne will contend for the Nationwide title with Roush Fenway Racing, taking over the No. 6 entry recently driven by two-time series champion Ricky Stenhouse Jr. He'll also continue his role as driver of the Wood Brothers Racing Ford in the Cup series, the team with which he won the 2011 Daytona 500. Still, he's working to keep up his training when he can -- something that can only boost his on-track effort as he chases that Nationwide title. "I've still been trying to keep up with the training," he said. "It's hard when it's cold outside, it's hard to motivate yourself to go hop on the road bike or to go run but that's something you've kind of got to do for racing," he said.

Got Something to Add?
Truly horrible Stayin' Alive... if you don't have a great falsetto DONT TOUCH THAT SONG
I just started watching the Voice seriously this week and this Cody Belew really caught my eye and ear. There are a few impressive singers on the show, but this guy has the full package. His musicality is perfection; he is authentic, poised, self-possessed, connected and free-spirited. He feels familiar yet at the same fully original. He's good looking but not cookie cutter. He's sexy without trying. So glad he's safe and CeeLo is so behind him. Hopes he lasts as long as possible.
poor Michaela i reallt thought she had a chance of staying -.-, oh well, looks like the polls/itunes charts predictions were on point! that means that Cassade has a good shot!
I don't understand that Nicholas long-haired, creepy-looking guy. Go Cody! Go Dez. Whew! For a moment there, I thought Cody was a goner. Question Rickey (or to anyone who knows) - was the announcement in order of votes garnered? Or was it random? Okay guys - always vote for Cody!!
Why don't they leave 10 minutes at the end so they can announce the voting order? :D. And yes Cody!!!
OH NO! Adriana is GONE. Ok moving on... hahahaha!
UGH why couldn't it be Melanie and Adriana
get ready for negative comments by xtina for cody next week.........
WE were right! I-tunes does not lie. :)
Thank GOD!!!!!!!!! I was about to have a heart attack!!!!!!!!!
go cody!
HAHAH CHRISTINA's FACE THOUGH. Don't mess with Xtina
Cody went home : [
YES AMANDA! now Cody please please
FINALLY Amanda
those being called safe are in no particular order? i didnt hear them say anything bout that...
come on call cody as safe!
Ceelo is hilarious
If Amanda makes it through, she has got to stop singing the indie stuff. America loves songs they recognize and that's what they vote for; hold the indie till the competition is over. Yay Dez.
look Rickey Dez is safe
Yes!!! My 10 votes counted!
Dez singing country again....hahahah
I really don't understand country music
Lols I thought for a minute Carson was going to pull a Seacrest. :) Dez looked all serious, lols. Hey St. Nick's hair looks good tonight. :)
Please Adriana and Cassadee be voted off PLEASE
Cassadee was painful to listen to last night imo. But with her already established fan base, she will be the last woman standing. I don't have the answer but somehow they need to find a way to equalize the voting so that the more professional don't always beat out the lesser known.
Is that Terry's real hair or is it a wig?
@Mikhail XO It's always a SAUSAGE fest! lols
@Justine DeAngels NO he hasn't!!!!!!!!! Booooooooooo!!!!! Lies!!!!!! :(
@Forever504 I love Ceelo's personality! Now choose some good songs and I will be happy. LET CODY BE SAFE!!!!!!!!!! I threw him some votes too!
@LinBrand I wouldn't call Florence an indie singer
@Forever504 Rickey.org SAVED DEZ!!! DEZ is to hawt to lose right now, we need our eye candy for the next five weeks. :)
@Mikhail XO I'm sooooooo happy right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOW don't f-up his song next week Cee-Lo...
@Forever504 Cassadee is for sure safe. I wouldn't mind if she went, her voice is annoying. Adrianna is most likely a goner.
Ok it's real. lols
@ArchieSue @Justine DeAngels I know I loved him too. I'm sad to see Melanie go as well. She was adorable.
@ArchieSue @Forever504 Usher will not be able to fill ceelo's crazy shoes
@Forever504 @LinBrand Well you're right but to most of America, not sure they would recognize her songs. I said indie because that's what Amanda said she wanted to be. I miss De'borah.
@ArchieSue @Forever504 1 out of 2 wouldn't be bad lol
I love Melanie and Cody. Hurrrah! Thanks I'm sorry I had no idea! Didn't mean to scare you!
@Justine DeAngels @ArchieSue No anyone can go, the two with the lowest votes goes. Melanie is SAFE! So is Cody! SAFE!
@ArchieSue i had no idea! I thought one from each team went home!
@Forever504 @ArchieSue Nope, Cee Lo is special. :)
@Forever504 @LinBrand If you do an indie song, make it sound good and people will like it, but I know what you are saying. :)
@LinBrand @Forever504 we all miss De'Borah

Army SSG. Matt Frederick, of Fort Leonard Wood, MO, plays Taps on a trumpet during the graveside service for Army Spc. Jared Stanker at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery in Worth Saturday, November 7, 2009.
Updated: December 10, 2013 6:04AM
Ask adults about the most moving musical experience they've ever had, and while it may take a few seconds to reflect, nearly all will recall a concert, a hymn, a song on the radio. Or they may name several.
Tom Petty playing "I Won't Back Down" at a televised concert soon after 9/11 is a memorable example. He sang and played the guitar, his eyes steady and resolute on the TV camera, while his music filled me and millions of others with waves of grief, resolution and pride.
As equally transformational was Natalie Maines' performance of "Not Ready to Make Nice" at the 2007 Grammy Awards. The passionate vocalization by the lead singer of the Dixie Chicks, with lyrics about standing up for freedom of speech, despite the public persecution her musical trio endured for criticizing the Iraq war, resonated with courage, resolve and artistic inspiration.
But the most stirring music that I have ever experienced is a euphonically simple and elegant tune that millions of Americans will listen to on Veterans Day.
While the "Star Spangled Banner," "God Bless America" and various other patriotic songs are associated with Nov. 11, the melody that never fails to move me is taps.
The first time I heard it, I was a kid attending the funeral of a great uncle who had fought in World War I, and about whom I knew little else. So the rites and ceremonies leading up to the burial were partly interesting, partly boring and mostly ignored while I became re-acquainted with cousins during bouts of horseplay.
But when our parents were able to hush us at the graveside, and a bugler began to blow those mournful notes into the cold, bright sky, I broke into tears and sobs, my relatives' startled looks notwithstanding.
Uncertainties abound concerning the origin of taps. However, many historians believe that it was adapted from a French melody and first played in the U.S. as a dirge for a soldier's funeral in the early years of the American Civil War.
For obvious reasons, it caught on, and was thereafter played by buglers at every funeral on both the Union and Confederate side, and at funeral services for American veterans of World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan.
Taps is a phenomenon that acts like a miracle drug, insofar as it is mind changing and mood altering.
How any music is able to affect human emotions is still a mystery to scientists. But most are in agreement that it has the power to cause physical changes in the brain, a power that can be enhanced or modified with the addition of lyrics, or with an associated memory or time segment in an individual's life.
A specific melody, or a carefully constructed combination of notes that has never even been heard before, is capable of making the stomach flutter, or of flooding a listener with an overwhelming sense of longing.
A creative musical artist has the power to produce feelings of happiness, nostalgia, love; or in the case of taps, a sense of loss and sorrow.
I will leave it to music experts to expound on why the nature of the musical notes in taps, along with their length, and the tempo, and half steps and wholes steps, all executed by a trumpet or bugle, has such a heart rending impact on the listener.
When I last heard it, it was played by a member of the military at the funeral of my brother-in-law, Army veteran Don Teutsch, using a bugle with an electronic insert that plays a pre-programed rendition with the press of a button. While experts might detect the differences in the digital version, it was as hauntingly beautiful as ever.
To me, who spends summers in northwest Wisconsin, the effect of taps is comparable to the plaintive wail of the loon.
In the half light and mist over northern freshwater lakes, the loon's sorrowful song for its absent mate makes you feel its longing, loneliness and fear.
But you also feel its love, and you are edified by its declaration, and by nature's confirmation that love never dies.
So, too, when we bow our heads during taps on Veterans Day: It helps us commemorate the suffering, the sacrifice, and the tragic loss of American veterans of every conflict, from the Revolutionary War to Afghanistan, who sacrificed their lives for freedom.
Taps gives us good grieving, enabling us to feel the soldiers' love and their longing, as well as the pride in their country, in their families, and in their lives.

Brunch, Bonjour Brioche and Bad Service
- pescatarian Aug 21, 2006 06:42 PM
I finally tried Bonjour Brioche yesterday. I had been looking forward to it after hearing good things about it. I thought the food was pretty good (although it didn't blow me away). The best thing I had out of everything was the chai latte. I think the service was terrible though, and for that I would not rush back. They were indifferent. I know it's busy, etc. on the weekend and you're not paying a lot of money, but service is really important to me. And on top of indifferent service, they only take cash. I think that's really silly in 2006. I went after my run and I only had plastic on me, so I had to borrow from my friend. Not a big deal, but adding to the bad service, I would rather go down the street to Pulp Kitchen, where I always have great food and great service.
From my recollection - they have 1 or 2 server(s) for the entire place (apprx 25 tables) in that tiny space. It's incredible you get any service at all. To be honest, I've been there a few times where my silverware were actually dirty!
BUT, having said that - I still go back because nothing warms the heart like the smell of fresh baked bread and the buzz and energy on Sunday morning of a packed house.
yes we went there on Friday morning for breakfast - ahhh summer hours - anyway they never acknowledged us when we arrived - they were all busy and milling around behind the counter so we just took a seat - there were tons of empty seats - not like the weekend. After we'd eaten no one came by with our bill and we figured it was more relaxed than on the weekends when they are busy, by this time we were one of the only tables so went up to the counter. She greeted us with a smile and rang us up. I handed her $30 and she handed me a takeout bag. I was like I'm sorry this isn't mine I'm just paying my bill. And she acted all irritated and was like well who's bill is this? I said I don't know no one brought us ours we were sitting right here. Then we had to watch her bicker with staff to figure out what our bill is and then she looked at me like where is your money? I pointed to the $30 on the counter and said there it is. And she looked like we were trying to rip her off.
Finally she believed that was my money that I'd just handed it to her 2 mins earlier and then we left.
Upon leaving I asked my SO why do we go there? The food is amazing but the service........yikes. I'd posted on the board back in January about my experience buying a dozen pastries one morning to take to the office when I was chastized by I think the same woman (owner maybe?) about calling ahead next time I wanted such a big order. 12 croissants! A big order. Wow.
I don't care how great the food is in a restaurant if their service is bad!
I second the comment about "Pulp Kitchen," that place is great and has time for their customers!
I agree. Service is part of the experience. The staff at Pulp Kitchen always make you feel welcome in a very low key, casual way.
At Bonjour Brioche, we had to ask for a glass of water twice (they remembered the coffees, I guess they only care about the items you pay for). Due to the busyness, 3 of us were squeezed into a table for 3 on the patio. I ordered the scrambled eggs with smoked salmon. I asked that they not include the caviar. There was a half scooped off blob of caviar on it. I guess they remembered after they added it that I didn't want it. Would have preferred not to see the sloppy leftovers on the eggs. The potato rosti on the bottom was greasy and a bit soggy, not crisp. I would say that the scrambled eggs were nice. He looked at me like I was a heathen when I requested ketchup. The baguette was ok. I've had better. I am the type of person that "mmms" a lot when really enjoying a meal and I don't remember being inspired to do that. As a said before the chai latte was good.
All and all, and especially because of the service, I am not running back. Unfortunately, they are probably too busy to care.
re: josamania
Queen and Logan - it's a simple place, nothing fancy and it's vegetarian, so if you are looking for bacon and sausage, not the place, but I've been with meat lovers who enjoy it there as well - they do have a "bangers and beans" dish that is yum.
re: Aardvark
yes, it's a vegetarian restaurant - the bangers are made from a soy product
re: AmandaEd
Pulp Kitchen rocks. The menu is amazing. The service is gracious and attentive, but not overwhelming. www.pulpkitchen.ca
I still enjoy Bonjour Brioche every other week or so (its at the top of my street), but strictly for takeout only. I love their croissants, brioche, foccacia, sandwiches, tarts, etc... agree that the service is pretty crap though, hence it being a takeout only spot for us these days.
re: mummy2Luna
I third that. I always only do take out and it has never been a hassle.
Haven't been to Bonjour Brioche in quite a few years. The cafe looks quaint and the smell of fresh baking is always a bonus. However the last time I was there we purchased some croissants to take home after our brunch. The brown bag was handed over. When I looked inside they had given me all overcooked croissants. Dark past the point of being acceptible, i.e. kinda burnt. I told the waiter, and they gave me a new batch. Just felt like they were trying to pull a fast one, handing over a rolled up bag, that they had filled while I was eating my brunch, with overcooked goods.
As a result I don't think we will ever be back.
It's really too bad. I wonder if industry people read these forums? I mean things like service and logistics should be an easy fix - no additional $ investment is required. If only they knew about everyone's negative experiences - it would make it such a more pleasurable to place to go on Sunday morning!
I don't know... I might be a bit twisted but I think that the poor service, surly staff, and cash only policy adds to the charm of the place. :-)
Call me crazy but they have sort of a Soup Nazi thing going on... the table service is pretty bad and you can definitely get some attitude from the staff, but if you're grabbing some of their great baked goods for takeout I think the overall experience makes it a unique spot in a world full of bland chains and same old same old. I wouldn't expect a small bakery/cafe to equal the service at Splendido and it certainly does not... but whatever they are doing must be working because its packed almost all day every weekend.
End Random Musing...
re: Vise
I might lean towards "I might be a bit twisted but I think that the poor service, surly staff, and cash only policy adds to the charm of the place" in certain cases if I was blown away by the food, but I wasn't, and anyways, I think good service is much more charming.
I'm not expecting Splendido service either - I think there's a happy medium between a bland chain and a fine restaurant. Most of my enjoyable eating experiences take place in family run places with good reliable food and pleasant service.
re: Vise
Adding to the charm? Interesting way of looking at it! I just read through this whole thread and I've seen two recurring themes: 1) bad and rude service, and 2) food variously described as rancid, burned, soggy, and greasy.
I've never been myself, but I gotta say I'm really not being sold on this one...
re: Gary
Couldn't agree with you more Gary. And I can't understand why people continue to frequent places that offer bad service. There's a reason it's called the HOSPITALITY business. But if people continue to return to such places (and this one is very busy) they'll never get the message.
Our one experience there was awful. Do try Pulp Kitchen. The food and service there is a breath of fresh air compared to Brioche.
Voice of dissent over here. We actually like Bonjour Brioche. It's one of the things we look forward to doing on our rare weekdays off - breakfast at Brioche.
The food is always delicious. The eggs are light and fluffy, the quiches and flans offer a range of taste combinations and sensations, and where else can you have pizza with sardines and call it breakfast?
Plus the smell of fresh baked goods - intoxicating, to say the least.
I would agree that it's not the most attentive service in the world. But - as a previous poster pointed out - more annoying is the cash-only policy. Get into at least the 20th century, please.

Hello, I am new to the forum and thought I'd give it a try. Here goes.
Why do some Model 94s have flat barrel bands and others have rounded barrel bands. I have heard the flat band rifles are more valuable. Is this correct or just talk. Thanks.

Poverty In America: How Do Americans Survive On Minimum Wage?
(CBS Charlotte) — In the United States, minimum wage can pay anywhere from $4 to $9 per hour. Have you ever wondered, how can people afford to live a normal life working a minimum wage job? The answer: they can't.
Americans who have well paying jobs take a lot of things in life for granted, such as owning their own home or renting a nice apartment, and being able to spend money without worrying about the consequences, etc.
As the economy slowly recovers, even people who "did everything right," may have no other employment opportunities than to work for minimum wage.
In North Carolina, the minimum wage is $7.25 per hour. At that rate, we calculated what a minimum wage worker could and couldn't afford. Read more:
- After taxes, a minimum wage worker who works 40 hours a week, will take home a little over $1000 per month.
- At $1000 per month, a person cannot afford to pay more than $500 a month in rent.
- At $500 a month in rent, a person can expect to live in an undesirable apartment complex which will more than likely be in an unsafe part of town. The only real exception to this rule is if the minimum wage worker has a roommate or partner that they reside with.
- If renting their own apartment, the minimum wage worker can expect to pay around $200 a month in utilities. Again, the cost of utilities may be reduced if they share a residence with someone.
- After paying for rent and utilities, the minimum wage worker will have to purchase other necessities, such as food and gasoline (assuming they have a car.) The average person spends more than $300 per month for food and gasoline … but this is all the minimum wage worker has left to spend.
- After paying for rent, utilities, groceries and gasoline, you can imagine that the minimum wage worker is probably in the red for the month, however, what about additional costs, such as credit card bills, health care costs/bills, an emergency situation, or other bills that they might have? You guessed it … the minimum wage worker rarely makes enough money to support themselves on a routine, monthly basis.
(Related Article: Poverty In America: Myths About Welfare Recipients)
Luckily, the minimum wage worker does have a few options. Most minimum wage workers qualify for food stamps. Not having to pay for food can definitely enable them to spend that money on other expenses.
Many states also offer utility assistance for low-income people. Having financial assistance with utilities can mean the difference between a warm winter versus a cold winter.
The reality is, even if a low-income person has assistance with food and utilities, it is still very hard to get ahead or to live in financial comfort.

Orthochromatic World - First test film ADOX Ortho 25
My first experiments, using a super low speed orthochromatic B/W film. Photographic materials have been orthochromatic in the 19th and at the beginning of the 20th century. This kind of films provide an extremely high contrast at very fine grain, because it is not capturing red light. That gives a very vintage look ( exactly like photographs have been taken 100-150 years ago ). Interesting film. I will certainly use it again.This photo was shot on film. Taken by berndtotto with a Fujica Compact 35 loaded with ADOX Ortho 25 film in Tokyo, Japan. These tags describe this photo: adox, ortho, 25, orthochromatic, film, orthochromatisch, vintage, black, white, fujica, 35, compact, odaiba, tokyo, bay, and japan.

Commodity Futures Trading:
Preliminary Information on the Viability of the Cattle Futures Markets
RCED-87-83: Published: Jan 16, 1987. Publicly Released: Jan 16, 1987.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
In response to a congressional request, GAO provided preliminary information on its study of the cattle futures markets.
GAO found that: (1) the cattle industry has suffered serious financial stress in recent years because of high interest rates, low cattle prices, and declining land values; (2) although the price of cattle today is twice what it was 20 to 30 years ago, the decline in the dollar's purchasing power has more than offset this price increase; (3) the Chicago Mercantile Exchange created the live cattle futures market in 1964, as a response to unstable prices and narrow profit margins; and (4) many within the cattle industry are uncertain of how to use the market or what its impact is on prices. GAO also found that: (1) the structure of the cattle industry has changed dramatically over the years; (2) 75 percent of the nation's beef cows live in herds of less than 200; (3) agricultural futures market mechanisms evolved primarily in response to unstable cash markets with wide price swings resulting from a glut of low-priced commodities at harvest time and high-priced commodities after harvest; and (4) there have been charges within the cattle industry that the cattle futures markets exert downward pressure on cattle prices.

I know many Jacintas and Irenes.
I've known a Flavia who was soooo pretty.
My family isn't Catholic and never has been, but it had several Idas born in the 19th C. Do you think Ida could come back? And one of my own names is Josefa/Yosefa (no hard J)
Iphigenia is kind of awesome. Dunno if I'd be brave enough to use it though.

I think that with things like Ava and Eva becoming more popular, Ida might be able to make a comeback, at least in a small way. I've seen Ada and Elsa around quite a few times over the past few years, I don't see why Ida couldn't come back.....not to mention it's similar sound to Isla, that's points in it's favor, too.
February 2nd, 2013 10:30 PM #17
Glad y'all enjoyed it. And you're right, a few of these like Ingrid and Lea don't really belong. Mea culpa!
I think Ida could come back.
Funny story re: Ida. When I was born my paternal grandmother, whose name is Ida, arrived at the hospital, and my maternal grandmother, Marge, played a little joke on her. "Did you hear?" Marge said to Ida. "They've named the baby after us: Ida Marge!" Whereupon Ida promptly... fainted. :-) When she came to they told her my name was actually Marla Kristen. That story still gets told at every holiday and gathering. And she still recalls the horror at thinking her poor granddaughter was named Ida.
Funny how times change. Today it is perfectly plausible for a baby girl, and Marla Kristen sounds dated.Mrs. H.
