Best Mexican food?
- a
- Anna Jun 29, 2005 08:53 PM
I am in search of an excellent Mexican restaurant in New Orleans and would greatly appreciate any recommendations.
Not Juan's Flying Burrito. Sorry, but this is the only mexican place I've been to in NOLA and I didn't like it.
Mexican food is one area where New Orleans is very weak.
For truly Mexican food, the only place I know that's any good at all is Taquero/Coyoacan on St. Charles. It is truly Mexican dining. Tacos and other less expensive dishes downstairs, and Mexican fine dining with an excellent chef upstairs.
For Southwestern food -- sorta New Mexico/Texas food,
Santa Fe on Frenchmen is very good. Neither place is cheap, but the plates of food at Santa Fe are very large.
I've never finished my plates there.
The rest of the "Mexican restaurants" are a real disappointment to anyone from the southwest, or who has traveled in Mexico extensively.
re: jayne
I agree, not much good mexican food.
More about Taquero's-- many people are very annoyed to find that this is not a place that serves fajitas with a big pile of rice and refried beans on the side. It is very authentic, quite expensive, and the chef does not take kindly to substitutions. Completely worth it in my opinion.
Many people find Taqueria Corona to be very good, it's more the American idea of a mexican restaurant,without being too gloppy. I've never been much of a fan of Santa Fe, but everyone else I know likes it. They do have fantastic margaritas.
You might have more luck with Central American or Cuban stuff-- Liborio's downtown is quite good (Cuban), and recently reviewed in the paper (and by a few other people I know) as being good is Fiesta Latina out on Airline Hwy.
I recently reviewed Vera Cruz on Maple St, which has been bad for a very long time, but recently acquired a new chef, and I've been very happy with my 3 meals there this spring. I'll link the review below. And I notice someone responded with another suggestion on that thread.
re: bwdirector
ah , the country flame, fueling the quarter's workers,scumbags, vagrants, and tourists for a long time now. i remember in the early 90ies they had a more expansive cuban menu... cheap but definitley hit and miss..broiled pork chops arnt bad for greasy ultilitarian fare.
tostones fried extra crisp with salt and lime... i miss new orleans.
also good hit and miss, with a decidedly more central-american flair is the plate lunch at the Union supermarket, next to thrift city and rock n bowl.
re: swampy
when did union supermarket reopen by rock n bowl? i know it's been open out in kenner for a while. as for best mexican/central american, i'd say the taco trucks. not all are the same but it's definitely fun to try them all out. taqueria is my favorite of the uptown offerings but you have to keep in mind that the owners aren't mexican, they're from central america (i think el salvador? i've forgotten by now).
re: missmable
Union Supermarket is still closed. They're tearing down and rebuilding everything but Rock 'n' Bowl.
re: Jess
If you want to go the Cuban, South/Central- American route, Maya's at 2027 Magazine is absolutely wonderful!! They do a slow roasted pork to die for that they serve over gallo pinto with pico de gallo, and they have the most delicious pan-fried plantains with this lovely cool creamy dipping sauce; also a truly killer chile relleno. My dad always calls the restaurant ahead of time to make sure they have them before we go in. Everything is thoughtfully seasoned and very well-executed and they always have a TON of yummy specials to choose from. Also they have very excellent cocktails...
re: batterdip
I agree. I enjoy both, particularly the chilaquiles at La Mexicana as well as the gorditas and chile relleno at Jalisco. I have found that, for those who say that there is no good Mexican food in N.O., they have generally not been to either of these places.
re: batterdip
anyone know the deal with the new restaurant called "The Kitchen" on Canal St? I heard it's "mexican food" but don't know if it's real mexican or just more nachos and quesadillas.
re: Adrienne
Give us about 6 months to a year and this place should be crawling with good true Mexican and Tex-Mex restaurants, thanks to Katrina. There are real good taco trucks all over town now.
re: Adrienne
While I have not been to La Mexicana since the storm, I hear it is open. I have been to Jalisco several times, and it is always packed, and the food is just as good as it was before. There is also a new Central American place on Stumph, about 1-2 blocks off of Terry. Also try Christy's PoBoys on Stumph for excellent Cuban food, particularly their oxtail stew and ropa vieja.
re: Adrienne
Vera Cruz is still open, but the new chef they had before the storm is not back, so I can't recommend going there.
Fiesta Bistro by Lebanon's on Carrollton is new this year, they have a little tapas menu that's pretty good. They also have tacos etc.
re: Adrienne
Just went to Coyocan on the corner of St. Charles and Martin Luther King Blvd. last night (3/16/07). Post-Katrina, they no longer have the two different restaurants as described above, and everything is located downstairs. A beautiful dininng room, with dim lighting, lots of room between tables, and our server was really great. They did a nice presentation of orders from their extensive (20+) tequila list and served me a nice Michelada, which isn't something I'd been able to order elsewhere in New Orleans.
Seems like they've combined the lower-end and higher end menu items from the two different restaurants. From the giant open kitchen came some steaks and high-end traditional mexican dishes (Chile Relleno con carne, Pollo con mole) in the $18-30 range, and burritos, enchiladas, etc. for $5-10. I had two double-fist-required bean and cheese burritos for $4 each. Simple, but good. I spent more on my drinks than my meal, which isn't a bad thing.
The waiter said they are trying to get enough staff to open up the upstairs, but until that happens, they'll just run the downstairs and serve off of both menus.
re: breakaway
I just went to El Gate Negro last night and it is one of the better Mexican restaurants I've been to. It has a much smaller menu than you usually find, but all the classics are there. The cooking staff is extemely friendly, and, as for taste, it is as good as anything else you will find if not better.
re: breakaway
Tomatillos is still great in a pinch. It still qualifies more as Tex-Mex, but the patio outside and the big-ass margaritas make up for it. I head there regularly for lunch and am generally satisfied with the nachos. The only negative is when I asked for hot salsa, the waiter put it in the microwave... Seriously...
I don't know about those, I'm sorry, but I thought I should update my above post, as I went to Felipe's (behind the shopping center at Calhoun and Claiborne) a few weeks ago. Everything was very fresh, there's a salsa bar, it hit the spot. Sort of the format of a Moe's. The tortillas were not homemade, unfortunately. But the price was right, and it will definitely do when I feel like Mexican.
A great new place:
Tacos San Miguel, at Claiborne and Elysian Fields. Next to the Family Dollar store.
It's a truly authentic Mexican hole in the wall.
Panama Hat above referred to Taco trucks. Do the trucks have consistent locations? Can you help me figure out how to find them? ANd what their hours might be?
They are all over town now, even out in Metairie. Most that I have seen are along Elysian Fields but I haven't driven around much lately. I don't know exact hours but it looks like mostly lunch. Mexican restaurnats are popping up all over; one appears to be opening next to Preservation Hall on St. Peter. Soon I don't think you will need to ask where they are, just which ones are good.
re: Panama Hat
true dat
re: Panama Hat
they're pretty consistent about their locations. not to sound like i'm stereotyping but you can find them wherever you find a lot of the hispanic workers: by lowe's, home depot, etc. the one at the gas station near claiborne and carrollton is pretty good.
re: missmable
Anywhere that is, except in Jefferson Paris. They banned the taco trucks this week.
If you are willing to drive a bit there is a wonderful Mexican Resturant on the North Shore.Don't remember the name, Take the causeway north and exit to the left towards Madisonville and Rt. 22. The resturant is just there on the left in a little shopping center before Mandeville High School. We used to eat there faithfully every Friday night.
re: Midcity Bmore Girl
Bmore girl:
The place you're referring to is--I think--called Casa Garcia, and while I haven't been to the Northshore location I'm very much familiar with the original Casa Garcia in Kenner (on Vets between Power and David). Even if I'm completely wrong about your Mandeville rec, I grew up on this restaurant and thereby it remains my favorite in the metro area for Mexican food.
And while we're talking about Kenner, there is a place I've driven out to a few times on West Metairie that serves killer Salvadoran food--not Mex, I know, but it's called La Pupuseria La Macarena and has proven fantastic every time--has anyone been?
re: redAir
Yep. V. good, though I always feel like the pricing is higher than I expected. I know the food is fresh, etc, but if you have a couple of courses, the total tab can creep up into the "nice restaurant" zone, and it's just a simple place.
re: Hungry Celeste
Have you tried Taqueria Sanchez on the West Bank?
At first they had a taco truck, then they moved in to a former snowball stand at 46 Westbank Expy.
The pupusas and barbecoa tacos are excellent. They also throw in a side of cilantro spiked hot sauce.
re: TulaneJeff
This is the little blue & white place, right? PDG (pretty darn good) all the way.
i agree that taqueros-coyoacan is very good, but too authentic for most people, with servings that are more delicate and not smothered in cheese and sour cream. i have never understood the fascination with santa fe - the food is just not that good. taqueria corona isnt my favorite, either, unless you are a BIG fan of cheese. juan's flying burrito is ok, but nothing to write home about. mexican is just not that great around here.
re: charve1
Santa Fe has closed.
re: oh_really_now
re: collegeconnoisseur
Isabel sells tamales at the Saturday CCFM in the Warehouse district, as well. Someone asked her once how many she makes before each market and she said 12 dozen!! The family also makes chorizo, their own tomatillo sauce, and a few other products.
Tomatillo is open on Esplanade and Frenchmen.
I have been to both San Miguel and Felipe's in the past few weeks. They are so different.
Felipe's: The food was good but over priced. I think tacos run at about $4 for 2 tacos. You need several to get full. In the corner by the drink machine they have a salsa bar with four house made salsas, all of which are really good. There is a bar which makes great margaritas from fresh squeezed key limes. My only complaint is the "applebee's" like atmosphere.
San Miguel: The experience is totally different. Folding chairs and card tables are all that are in this place. They have a great selection of daily prepared taco fillings all of which are tasty. This place reminds me of the taco shops on the southside of Chicago.
re: ggordi1
You thought Felipe's was overpriced? My darling husband and I stuffed ourselves for a total bill of about $13. I had some sort of platter for around $6.
I posted this in response to a question about Marisol's, located where Tomatillo's is now.
The name is Tomatillo's. We gave it a try a couple of times, but were not impressed. They have overpriced Margaritas and their food is average at best. I was extremely put off by their mole sauce. If you like Marisol's food, Chef Pete, (the chef at Marisol's,) cooks in the outdoor seating area of Bacchanal on Sundays. Bacchanal was opened a few years ago by the then sommelier, Chris Rudge. It is an excellent wine shop/bar, and bargains abound. He and Chef Pete go way back, and Pete usually has an eclectic, large and diverse menu. Show up early to beat the line and ensure there is enough food Bacchanal is located at 600 Poland Ave., (Poland and Chatres, the last corner in the neighborhood.)
If your looking for a good Mexican restaurant, try El Gato Negro at 81 French Market Place, (right across from the French Market.) The food is authentic Mexican and well prepared. Prices are reasonable, and they just got their liquor license and now feature hand squeezed Margaritas. Try the carrot!
re: nolalover
I agree that El Gato Negro is very, very good. I went there for lunch last week and left stuffed for less than $10. I had two fish tacos that were absolutely amazing. They make their own fresh tortillas (I had flour tortillas) that were warm and amazingly delicious. Service was friendly and fast- of course I was the only one there as I was late for lunch but early for dinner. A good deal for a great meal off the beaten path- at least while the French Market is not up and running fully.
re: TulaneJeff
I like Superior Grill just fine.
I love Taqueria Sanchez - right near 9 Roses. The chicken tacos were so good that I haven't been able to steer away from them to try anything else... Very authentic stuff.
I found a jewel of a little Mexican Restaurant in Lakeview - I am from Texas and I found thier food to be remniscent of home! Truly Tex-Mex. I especially love their shredded beef tacos, but have not found anything on their menu that I've tried to be to my disliking... SALSAS POR EL LAGO is the name of the restaurant and it's located at 124 Lake Marina Drive in New Orleans - check it out!
re: yeehatexasfilly
Bless you for finding Tex-Mex!!! Do they have real queso there?? Or is it the awful glop served in all of the faux Mexican spots in NO?
re: serich
Serich's post made me laugh. I moved here from Houston a little over a year ago and totally agreed with him.....I had tried Carrettas, Taqueria Corona, Casa Garcia, Gato Negro, etc, etc, etc.and was sorely disappointed. Superior Grill was ok but still not even close to that which I had grown accustomed in Houston...although the margaritas were pretty decent. Just as I was about to give up, I discovered Taco San Miguel. It is just off Severn in Metairie...behind the WOW Wing place. The owners are from the Houston area and it reminds me alot of home. The only thing they are lacking is a tortilla lady to make fresh tortillas onsite as is common in Houston. :-) The restaurant is small and parking is a little tight but in addition to indoor seating, they have a small front patio, a drive through window and even serve breakfast tacos....something I never thought I would see here in New Orleans! In sum, it is the closest thing I've found to the real mccoy here in NOLA.
That being said, I eat Mexican food breakfast, lunch and dinner whenever I go back to Houston and other Texas locales. Then I come home to NOLA and have a po-boy. It kind of balances out I suppose.
Taco San Miguel
2120 N Claiborne Ave, New Orleans, LA 70116
re: txgirl
I like Taco San Miguel, but I've noticed that their meats can be a bit dry--okay, really dry. I know tacos don't usually have the moistest meat in the world, but this was pretty bad. I try not to eat too much meat anyway, so I've been ordering the rajas tacos--perfect. I called on a recent Sunday night to place an order, and when I arrived to pick it up, the woman behind the counter told me they didn't have rajas or nopales--knocking out the only two meatless taco fillings. I guess I could've asked for beans instead, but I just got some chicken and pork. They were dry and not what I wanted, and I also got the feeling that the woman hadn't told me over the phone that they were out of rajas because she figured that once I got there I would order something anyway, rather than leaving empty-handed. I was the only customer there, and I just felt like I was not treated honestly.
re: midcity
Please let the owners know, both about the dryness of the meat and the response you received from the employee. I have a feeling they will welcome the feedback and will not only make it right for you but take steps to avoid those problems in the future.
re: txgirl
Thanks--I will. I still have a positive perception of TSM and will go back, but I was just bummed out. It was there or Phil's Grill that night--should've gone to Phil's.
re: midcity
I need to check Phil's out. My stepson said they have some interesting burger choices.
Also, if you come across any new Mexican alternatives in the area, I would love to know.
One interesting food tip: I discovered that the grocery section of Walmart sells raw, ready-to-cook tortillas. I used to buy these in Texas and didn't think I could find them here. They are a good alternative to store bought. All you do is throw them into a hot skillet or a few mintues until they are cooked. They are in the refrigerated section. :-)
re: txgirl
Thanks for the tip! I will look for them. I have been wanting to buy a press, but I'm just too busy to make my own tortillas right now.
re: txgirl
TSM sounds like it's worth a go - thanks for sharing!
re: txgirl
Good to know about TSM - thanks for sharing!
Had Fiesta Latina in Mid City last night, less mexican more central /south america, AMAZING. I had menudo rojo, perfectly cooked tripe and it had a beef knuckle in it. The broth was spicy and viscose from proper attention to the stock used. I can't wait to go back. The portions are huge!!!! Also had chicken tamales done in banana leaves with potato and chic peas, I am craving that this morning.
re: cheesegrater
Across the street, Taqueria Guerrero is quite good as well. I went there when they first opened and was quite unimpressed, but a friend of mine urged me to go back. I'm glad I did. Chicken mole, enchiladas, and chimichangas are all excellent. They also serve up a very spicy sauce along with there free chips and salsa. They are also open on Sundays which is a plus.
re: germyw
I will check it out. Thanks for the tip.
re: cheesegrater
Fiesta Latina is on Airline out by the airport.
is there another in Mid-City?
re: edible complex
The one with Taqueria Guerrero across the street is near Carrollton and Canal. Its in a metal box looking building if I'm not mistaken
Some of the best Mexican food I have had in New Orleans is at a taco truck on the Jefferson Hwy/Claiborne at the corner of Eagle. Very cheap and delicious. Truly authentic Mexican food. Most of what has been reviewed here I would only call "Mexican Style" food ie. Superior Grill, Juans, Felipes...
They have tortas, burritos, sopes, and of course, tacos. They offer carne asada, sometimes they have al pastor, carnitas, chorizo. I am a transplant from Los Angeles where I was a frequent taco truck visitor. This one could hold it's own on the mean streets of L.A.
re: zebrasix
Agree to liking the taco trucks, but a lot were operated by folks from Honduras and El Salvador and offered their style of cooking.
This is not directed at you, but to compare New Orleans' Mexican restaurants to Texas or California is quite unfair as each region has its own style, which is how it is in Mexico itself. I always find it amusing to read people's complaints of Mexican cuisine who have never been to Mexico and base their comparisons on some version they grew up on in their local area. Not to say you can't get good cuisine of any heritage or culture anywhere, but understand the diversity of tastes and flavors of a nation before making gross generalizations of a style of cooking.
re: edible complex
EC has a good point - what most people consider Mexican is often Cali-Mex, Tex-Mex or even New Mexico - Mex.
Having spent a lot of my youth surfing in the Baja, the clean fresh coastal tastes are nothing like Tex-Mex. I went on to visit Veracruz and feast on their lovely shrimp. The Yucatan has lots of Caribbean influences. Hunting in the Sonoran desert brought lost of great beef dishes. A dental service project took me to Oaxaca where their dairy cows allow them to make the most terrific cheeses. I also know of the amazing moles from interior Mexico with the layers of chocolate, cinnamon, etc.
To that end, I have not found good Mexican food in New Orleans. What I have found is wonderful Central American food. Love Taqueria Guerrero though I haven't tried El Rinconcito or Fiesta Latina yet.
But hey, with all the amazing food here, who's complaining? Not me
I realize this is an old post, but I MUST write about La Fiesta on the Westbank. Perhaps my search functions are faulty, but I am amazed that I have not found mention of this place in all the chowhound Mexican food postings. This place is awesome. Great salsa, AMAZING refried beans, hot jalapenos, delicious chile rellenos, great cheese enchiladas, yummy, saucy tamales, and killer margaritas. Having spent the first 18 years of my life in south Texas, I do NOT say these things lightly. I think it's a testament to the restaurant's quality and consistency that it has been there for 37 years. And Maria, who has been there about half as long, is an absolute delight. It's worth the short drive over the CCC. Trust me.

Long Forgotten Lyrics - Oceansize
These are the secrets you will share
These are the words you cannot bear
This is the sight you'll never see
And that you have forgotten me
The voice that tempted you away
The deepest hole in which I stay
I miss you most my darkest hour
I'm wondering where the hell you are
Too late to tell you you were wrong
Another word to dwell upon
You could have waited for me
Like I was waiting just for you
The fuse is flickering inside
Her touch to blow me open wide
I could have run a million times
But I was waiting for you
And did you ever stop to think
About how low that you could sink
And down the low, our deepest sigh
Within yourself you cannot hide
Do photographs and faces lie?
Why did I never wonder why?
Why I was waiting for you (x2)

26 Tasting Notes
"Lights flicker from the opposite loft
In this room the heat pipes just cough
The country music station plays soft
But there's nothing, really nothing to turn off" Visions of Johanna, Bob Dylan
I appreciate everyone's enthusiasm for this tea. For me the joy of this tea is in its understatement. It is not a bombardment on the taste buds, but so well balanced; a tea that has been built, not blended. Each of the pieces critical, there, but not there. A handful of rain, if you will, tempting you to defy it.

Really great course full of tips and ideas for Tunisian crochet in the round!
Also suitable for beginners. Lily explains how to do the basic Tunisian stitches worked flat as well as in the round on double ended hook.

You have done it again Lily--this dvd is so easy to follow. I was so skeptical at first-but since I already knew how to do this stitch-I sailed thru it with no trouble at all. If you are a new-comer to this stitch-you still will love this video-just slow it down, maybe do some repeats and enjoy--I loved it!-thanks for making this dvd-lily

Three excellent pieces, today, all making the very excellent and true argument that Catholics cannot really be labeled and pigeonholed into political and ideological caricatures, no matter how desperately the media (and too often Catholics themselves, of each other) try to do it.
First up, Father Robert Barron looks at Paul Ryan and says, he's neither the social menace or the knight in shining armor that partisans want you to believe:
In its social teaching, this same sort of "bi-polar extremism" is on display. Solidarity? The Church is all for it. Subsidiarity? The Church couldn't be more enthusiastic about it. Not one or the other, nor some bland compromise between the two, but both, advocated with equal vigor. I think it would be wise for everyone to keep this peculiarly Catholic balance in mind as the debate over Paul Ryan's policies unfolds.
Right behind him comes Joanne McPortland who picks up Barron's thread and then strangles NPR with it:
…it was the arrogance of pundits determining "what kind of Catholicism is really the appropriate one for American life" that riled me. Excuse me, Professor, but even if there were different kinds of Catholicism (red Catholics and blue Catholics, identified at parish registration?), determining which one is "most appropriate for American life" is not up for a vote. FirstAmendment FirstAmendment FirstAmendment. (Not that anybody pays much attention to that old chestnut.)
The more I stewed in my rile, though, the more I recognized what really made me angry is the ease by which we Catholics have allowed ourselves to be reduced to this kind of stereotyping—and then played against one another as a consequence. "Social justice Catholic" ("the side of Catholicism that says take care of the poor and the oppressed"). "Family values Catholic" ("the side of Catholicism that says no to abortion"). These are not just handy MSM memes. They are, increasingly and frighteningly, the labels we ourselves pick up and apply to our lapels, our bumper stickers, and our minds.
I read the piece cheering, and wishing I'd have written it, and you'll want to read it all.
Then came this Sarah Babbs:
I do try to represent the truth of all Church social teachings in my writing. I am equally opposed to abortion, euthanasia, capital punishment, war (both nuclear and otherwise), human trafficking, and unjust conditions for workers and immigrants. I know that some issues are more important than others, but none are unimportant or can justly be ignored.
What seems shocking to me is just how few Catholics I've encountered who share this view. What seems shocking to me is that anyone wouldn't want to be a "Dorothy Day Catholic". This servant of God devoted her life to prayer, attending Mass daily, saying the rosary daily, and frequently spending time before the Blessed Sacrament. She devoted her life to doing the works of mercy, the very things which Our Lord himself says will determine if we are sheep or goats before Him. Who among us would not want to imitate her example?
There was a time in my life when people would ask me my political affiliation, and I said, "Democrat." Then, later, they asked, and I said, "Republican." Next time they asked, I said, "I'm not registered with either party. Now, when they ask, I say, "Catholic." I don't live up to it as well as I'd like to, but I do notice that each year, I feel more and more compelled away from the partisan stuff, and finding it more repellent. Considering my extremely liberal beginnings and my conservative overcorrection, clearly my pendulum is still settling down.
I like this from Sarah:
God led me though. From a contraception using, Planned Parenthood supporting, "progressive" Catholic, to an NFP practicing, Crisis Pregnancy Center supporting, "Dorothy Day" Catholic. The Holy Spirit blew my heart wide open, because I was humble enough to admit that maybe, just possibly, I did not know more than 2,000 years of consistent teaching from the Church. All it took was that small concession, and a grudging acceptance that perhaps I should be more familiar with what it was I was rejecting, which the Spirit used to show me that even though there are things I can disagree with the Church about, I trust Her enough to not want to.
Maybe if we all trusted the church a little more, we'd trust each other a bit more, too.
UPDATE: Hmmm, this does seem to be the topic of the day. Read William McGurn in the WSJ

Inaugurated in 1939, The Champion is frequently recognized as the beginning of dieselization on the Florida East Coast. FEC's founder, Henry Flagler would have been proud of this beautiful locomotive. Henry Flagler's strategy for FEC was to move freight by rail utilizing Florida's deep water ports in conjunction with a vision for growth generated by the opening of the Panama Canal. Today's FEC continues Mr. Flagler's vision as it expands its infrastructure to meet the demands created by the new Panama Canal opening in 2015. 'FEC is currently building an even stronger infrastructure', said Fran Chinnici, SVP Engineering and Purchasing. 'We have major construction projects underway to expand rail operations at Port Miami, Port Everglades, West Palm and the Bowden Terminal in Jacksonville to handle the increased demand. The refurbished locomotives are just one example of FEC's investment in handling future growth.'
The FEC 714, completed in 2011, was the first locomotive to highlight the Heritage paint scheme. The recently delivered FEC 703 is the first of 3 locomotives refurbished in 2013 to come out of the Progress Rail (a division of Caterpillar, Inc.) rebuild facility in Patterson, GA with the matching Heritage paint scheme. 'Today, the paint scheme signifies the continued growth that FEC aspires to attain as a premier regional rail network serving the east coast', says Jim Hertwig, President and CEO at Florida East Coast Railway, 'and I am proud to incorporate our rich heritage into our future plans.'

Invoking a Southern gentleman-turned-cowboy that's been untimely transplanted to Queensland, Many Things are set apart from the clatter of emerging bands with the distinctive drawl of Brisbane's Michael Tomlinson (formerly of indie favourites Yves Klein Blue), new EP "What We Are" is out now.
Acclaimed director and producer Kris Moyes (Beck, Grizzly Bear, Franz Ferdinand, Sia, The Presets) takes you on a hypnotic visual journey in the animated video for Mosman Alder's latest single 'Germland (of Julien Charbonneau)'.
Perhaps it's the delicate string arrangements and darkened spin on folk music that has captured homegrown local and far-flung international fans of Little May, or perhaps it's their ability to create tender songs that shimmer with vulnerability, honesty, and fearless lyricism.
The John Steel Singer's latest album, the softly synth-layered and sun-kissed-sounding "Everything's a Thread" has been chasing the sun across the globe since it's release last summer in their native Australia - most recently rousing audiences in the UK with their brand of psychedelic-pop-meets-surf-rock that has a unique sound all it's own.
Bluejuice, usually so quick to yell obscenities at anyone in earshot, have been dumbstruck and humbled at the response to their Farewell Tour announcement. With many shows selling out, the band have added extra dates!
Fresh from slaying the stage at Splendour in the Grass Tkay Maidza's returns with her debut video, for her latest single U-Huh, which is enjoying love on radio waves around the country. Made by the legendary Josh Logue from Mathematics,

After 13 years of broken bones, broken hearts, sore heads, passive aggression, regular aggression, several arrests, questionable skin infections, and a busload of infuriated tour managers, Bluejuice are announcing they are calling it quits at the end of 2014.
Many Things have revealed another new track 'Chains' ahead of the release of their new EP, 'What We Are', August 22nd via Dew Process.

I enjoy this tour. The tour guide was great and really knew a lot about the city.

Lo Jolla is great! The views you see traveling down route 5 are totally amazing, truly awesome. You will love the Torrey Pines and our tour guide was excellent.

The driver was very friendly and knowledgeable. The crew of the boat were also very knowledgeable about the bay.
We had an excellent guide!
This tour was amazing!
Frank was an excellent tour guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. It was a fun relaxing tour. Thanks!
the tour was very good especially our tour guide who i do not remember her name she was a short hispanic woman who knew what she was doing and where she was going kodos to her .we just wish we had a little more time at the stops we went to .overall a good tour
It was a very intresting tour of the area. I especially enjoyed seeing La Jolla. I enjoyed the driver's information and suggestions.
Very interesting. Nice city to visit. Our guide was very good. We recommand Viator.
This was a good city tour

Excellent city tour, good guide and a variety of places visited in a short time, we also did the add on cruise which took us around the bay. As we had spent some time near the harbour we didn't learn anything new. Generally very enjoyable tour.
A great day-trip!
Its was a good long trip with no lunch break which was a little disappointing. We had a lot of stop. I would have like to had less 10 -15 minutes stop and had 1 hour lunch somewhere.
Tour was very informative and driver was quite knowledgeable on his narrating during tour.
The tour itself was reslly nice and educational. We loved the Harbor Cruise in which was very relaxing. We actually saw about 6 dolphins racing the ship! That was cool! The only thing we did not enjoy was having to get up at 630am to walk 3 blocks to another hotel for pick up for the tour. The pick up instructions were misleading. So it is a must that all those interested in this tour make sure that they pick up at the hotel you are stating at and not one that they consider is close by; because they actually told us that our hotel was a pick up site and then a personnel later informed us the day before the tour that we had tp walk to another location for pick up. Oh and then they were late!

US BMW dealers have received the official 1 series M coupe product bulletin, signaling the start of communications regarding the 1m coupe. The bulletin summarizes general facts of the 1M coupe as well as laying out specific US production and pricing info.
The 1M will be limited production after all and production begins in 2011. BMW's Order Bank will be open as of December 20th, meaning the official option and package lists will be listed (and orders possibly being submitted on this date).
Skiddmark has shared this great in studio video of the 1M coupe, featuring a live rotating view of the 1M as well as some motor revving action! Video inside – listen to the 1M being revved at 1:52 and 4:12 marks of the video.
The 1M Coupe Visualizer is now available on BMW.com, including a virtual look at the 1M in black and white. In addition to the 360 degree visualizer, there is a complete set of 1M design and technology highlights for you to explore.
It's finally here (officially)!! BMW has unveiled the 1-series M Coupe along with official specs, press release, and photos. Full details INSIDE. 335HP, Widebody, find out all the details!
The 1-series M Coupe's full release and specs will come at approximately 6PM EST, but basic specs have been posted by BMW insider Scott26. The 1M Coupe will feature 335hp, 0-100km/h in 4.9 seconds, 332 lb-ft torque (+37 overboost), and 1570kg (EU) weight. Pricing will come in at approximately 50,500 Euros.
The BMW 1-series M Coupe has just been fully unveiled in this official video! Check inside for the full look. The press release and official photos will come tomorrow (Thursday) at 6PM EST so stay tuned! This also provides the first official look at the 1-series LCI facelift, with its revised headlights (with eyebrows) and light bar tail lights.
It appears that the 1M coupe's official internet reveal date has been moved up – to this Thursday, December 9 @ 6PM EST! Mark your calendars to tune in at that time to witness the 1M fully revealed for the first time.
The M-power.com closed room has now been updated with the video of the newest partial unveiling of the 1M coupe, with a clearer look of the body side crease than the photos from earlier today.
Andy Priaulx and Dr. Segler pushed the ball forward another step this past Sunday December 5, with an additional piece of the BMW 1 Series M Coupé unveiled to the public at the Autosport Awards in The Grosvenor House Hotel, Park Lane, London UK.
A 1addicts member reports that the official release/reveal date of the hotly anticipated production 1 Series M Coupe will be December 12, 2010! This date was later corroborated by BMW insider Scott. Be sure to tune 12/12/10 for the reveal.
The next partial reveal of the 1M coupe is imminent and its full unveil is next month, but it continues being evaluated. Just spotted in Munich is this black 1M coupe prototype showing covered M3 mirrors and new LCI headlights/tail lights. The wheels (Style 270M M3 winter wheels) have likely been fitted for some better cold weather traction. These photos also highlight the aggressively flared fenders of the 1 series M coupe.
Contrary to earlier reports of a 2,700 unit limit on the 1-series M Coupe, based on new info from insider Scott26, it now appears that BMW will build as many 1M coupes as demand dictates during its production run, which will end in the first quarter of 2012. Yesterday's engine specs image shows a 3/11 date after the 1M coupe engine, which we believe may indicate the start of production as March 2011. If this is the case, the entire 1M coupe production run will span … CONTINUED

The Ostrich
Librul- Your reply makes me sad as much as anything as it speaks directly to the death of rational thought and debate. I put forth a very simple question. All I was interested in was a brief outline of an energy policy that would be something you could get behind. I asked you to convince me that your position is correct. To this you respond with three paragraphs of personal attack. I don't know you. You may be a wonderful person, and we simply disagree on an issue. It speaks volumes that you would rather make a personal attack then simply state your position clearly. The fact that you would like to relegate those that may differ from you to the camp of idiocy does not in any way speak to the validity of your truth claims.
Wallyworld- Another fantastic example of the template applied. You totally nailed number 1. You took a little creative license with number 2. You really dropped the ball on number 3. I don't watch porn or Nascar. You should be careful here and simply stick to the script you've been given. Number 3 is the self-righteous statement.
The Ostrich
Librul- You have an uncanny knack for making your opponent's arguments for them, but ok. I'll play.
Let's pretend I'm from another planet or just a newbie to this issue. Convince me of your position.
The Ostrich
It's easy to see the liberal attack template in action here. First, an ad hominem attack is launched. Second, some general emoting is offered, or just another attack on the opponent. Third, toss out a self-righteous comment to jump start the process of feeling good about yourself the rest of the day.
People often change their tunes when they have some skin in the game; something to lose. I often hear the arguement that it is better to be known for what we are for than for what we are against. I would ask the true believers in man made global warming leading to catastrophe to put forth some ideas that would solve this.

Lighter dirty ShirleyPosted: August 22, 2014 Filed under: Beverages, Holiday Recipe, Light and healthy, Quick Leave a comment
I love a good cocktail on a Friday night. But I hate drinking so many calories. Recently, my sister shared the Dirty Shirley with me. I lightened it up by using either diet sprite or my preferred method club soda!
1 ounce good vodka
5-6 ounces club soda or diet sprite
Dash/splash of grenadine
Pour vodka over ice cubes in a highball glass. Fill the rest with your soda of choice. Add in grenadine and garnish with cherries or lemons and serve immediately!
Waffles of insane greatnessPosted: July 18, 2014 Filed under: Breakfast, Brunch, Holiday Recipe Leave a comment
I've made these awesome waffles before, yet decided to update and repost. These are my husbands favorite. They are crunchy on the outside, nice and soft inside, and have fantastic flavor. So for his recent birthday, I decided to revamp the recipe. I did use most of the ingredients, but had to up the flour a bit and used vanilla bean paste instead to up the vanilla flavor. They were perfect!
3/4 cup all-purpose flour (I used a full cup)
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup whole milk or buttermilk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (I used vanilla bean paste)
Butter and syrup, for serving
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; mix well. Add the milk, vegetable oil, egg, sugar and vanilla and mix well. Let the batter sit for 30 minutes.
Preheat a waffle iron. Do not use non-stick spray on the waffle iron; the oil in the batter will allow the waffle to release easily. Follow the directions on your waffle iron to cook the waffles. Serve immediately with butter and syrup.
Lemon cream cake with vanilla bean frostingPosted: May 9, 2012 Filed under: Cakes/Cupcakes, Dessert, Holiday Recipe Leave a comment
We were invited to my aunt and uncle's Derby party and needed a dessert. I thought a lemon dessert would be nice and refreshing. I had recently seen this recipe and thought it would be perfect for the party! It was a hit. The cake is quite moist, the filling is to die for and the frosting is perfect. Definitely make this for your next get together. It's impressive and delicious!
For the cake:
3 cups cake flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
½ tsp. salt
16 tbsp. unsalted butter, at room temperature
Zest of ½ a lemon
2 cups sugar
5 large eggs, at room temperature
1¼ cups buttermilk, at room temperature
1 tbsp. lemon extract
1 tsp. vanilla extract
For the filling:
4 oz. mascarpone or cream cheese, cold
2½ tbsp. unsalted butter, at room temperature
1¼ cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 tsp. lemon extract
Zest of ½ a lemon
1 cup heavy cream, chilled
For the frosting:
1½ cups plus 2 tbsp. (3 sticks plus 2 tbsp.) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
Pinch of salt
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 tbsp. heavy cream
For the candied lemon slices: I omitted this
1-2 whole lemons, preferably organic
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
To make the cake, preheat the oven to 350° F. Butter and flour the edges of 3 8-inch round cake pans and shake out the excess. Set aside. Line the bottoms of the pans with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cake flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk together and set aside. Add the butter to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the lemon zest to the bowl of the mixer with the butter. Beat on medium-high speed for 3 minutes, until light and creamy in color. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat for one more minute.
Add the sugar to the butter mixture, ¼ cup at a time, beating 1 minute after each addition. Mix in the eggs one at a time until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl after each addition. Combine the buttermilk and the lemon and vanilla extract in a liquid measuring cup. With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients alternately with the wet ingredients, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients and mixing just until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix for 15 seconds longer.
Divide the batter between the prepared baking pans. Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20-22 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through baking. Let cool in the pans about 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack and let cool completely.
To make the filling, combine the mascarpone and butter in the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on medium-high speed until smooth and well combined. Mix in the confectioners' sugar and beat on low speed until incorporated. Blend in the lemon extract and lemon zest. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl and set aside. Wipe out the mixer bowl and fit with the whisk attachment. Add the heavy cream to the bowl and whip on high speed until stiff peaks form, being careful not to overbeat. Mix about a third of the whipped cream into the lemon-mascarpone mixture to lighten. Gently fold in the remaining whipped cream until no streaks remain and the mixture is evenly blended.
To make the frosting, add the butter to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the confectioners' sugar to the bowl and mix on medium-low speed just until incorporated. Scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean pod into the bowl and add in the salt. Continue to beat on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1-2 minutes. Mix in the vanilla extract and heavy cream on low speed just until incorporated. Increase the mixer speed and whip on high speed until light and fluffy, scraping down the bowl as needed, about 4 minutes.
To make the candied lemon slices, wash and dry the lemons thoroughly. Use a sharp serrated knife to make very thin slices of lemon. Poke out any seeds in the slices with a toothpick. Combine the sugar and water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Heat the mixture until the sugar dissolves. Add the lemon slices to the mixture so that they are in a single layer (none overlapping), reduce the heat to medium-low and let simmer about 20 minutes, turning the slices at least once so both sides are candied. Remove from the heat. Store in a container with the syrup until ready to use.
(Level cake layers if necessary.) To assemble the cake, place one of the layers on a serving platter. Top with half of the lemon-mascarpone mixture and smooth in an even layer. Place a second cake layer on top of the filling and top with the remaining filling. Place the final cake layer on top. Frost the top and sides of the assembled cake with the vanilla bean frosting. Use a pastry bag with a decorative tip to pipe accents on the cake. Garnish with the candied lemon slices.
Funfetti cheesecake cupcakes with cake batter cream cheese frostingPosted: April 9, 2012 Filed under: Cakes/Cupcakes, Dessert, Frosting, Holiday Recipe 3 Comments
The title says it all. This dessert has cheesecake, cream cheese icing, cake batter and cake all in one. It's awesome! I needed some desserts for our Easter celebrations and knew there'd probably be a lot of fruit flavored ones as spring always brings, so I'd thought I'd go in the other direction. Glad I did! These are incredible.
Confetti (or Funfetti) cake batter, use your favorite homemade or boxed version)-I used homemade
8 oz package cream cheese, softened
1 egg
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 and line 24 muffin tins with liners.
Spoon cake batter into each tin until it is about 1/2 full. In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, egg, sugar and vanilla on medium speed until smooth. Spoon one spoonful over the top of each cupcake. Bake for about 15 minutes or until set.
Cake Batter Cream Cheese Frosting:
1 stick salted butter, softened
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon Baker's Mystery Flavor (you could omit this, I omitted as my bottle I ordered didn't arrive in time. Darn you smart post!!)
3 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup white cake mix (MIX–NOT BATTER)
In the bowl of a mixer, beat butter, cream cheese and extract(s) on medium speed until smooth. Add powdered sugar and cake mix and beat on low until just combined. Increase speed to medium-high and beat for 2 minutes. If frosting is too thick, mix in a bit of heavy cream or milk until desired consistency is reached.
Once cupcakes are cool, frost generously. And decorate as you wish!
Chocolate orange pound cakePosted: April 4, 2012 Filed under: Breakfast, Brunch, Chocolate, Dessert, Holiday Recipe Leave a comment
Yum yum yum! This pound cake is crazy good. I tried a bit of it to make sure it was ok for guests and omg so good. This was easy to make and was perfect for a breakfast treat or snack for our guests visiting! Definitely a hit!
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 tablespoons orange zest
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup dark chocolate pieces
Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F. Grease a 9×5-inch baking pan and dust with flour. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
On a clean cutting board or counter, place the granulated sugar. Add the orange zest. With a bench scraper or the back of the spoon, work the zest into the granulated sugar, creating a fragrant and orange flavored sugar. Set aside.
In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together softened butter and cream cheese. Stop the mixer occasionally to scrape down the bowl and make sure that the butter and cream cheese are evenly mixed. Add the citrus zest to the butter and cream cheese mixture, and beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes.
Stop the mixer. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. On medium speed, beat in one egg at a time, beating for one minute after each addition. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Beat in vanilla extract.
Add dry ingredients all at once. Beat on low speed until dry ingredients are completely incorporated. Fold in the chocolate pieces.
Spoon batter into prepared pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes, rotating once or twice during baking. Bake until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean, or with just a few crumbs.
Cake will last, well wrapped at room temperature, for up to four days.
Glazed donutsPosted: February 19, 2012 Filed under: Breakfast, Donuts, Holiday Recipe, Quick Leave a comment
I am so in love with my donut pan. It is so incredibly easy to whip up a pan of donuts for breakfast. I prefer, and have to, the healthier donuts I made, but H wanted some "real" donuts, so I searched online for a perfect donut recipe. Sure enough, Nicole's blog came up with a fantastic donut. I did use my own glaze of powdered sugar, heavy cream and vanilla but top as you like!
2 cups all-flour flour
1 cup sugar
2 Tbsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs
1 cup skim milk
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup canola oil
Preheat the oven to 450 F.
Stir the dry ingredients together. Add the egg, vanilla, and milk then whisk together for 1 minute. Add the oil and continue to whisk until well combined.
Grease the muffin tins. Fill each 2/3 of the way. Bake for 7-9 minutes. Cool completely before icing. Yield: 30 doughnuts.
Top or glaze to your liking!
Secret heart cupcakesPosted: February 1, 2012 Filed under: Cakes/Cupcakes, Holiday Recipe Leave a comment
As soon as I saw these cupcakes, I knew I had to try them! And omg are they ever cute! Definitely make for your Valentines Day celebration!
Keep close eye on the direction of your cupcake so when you bite in the heart is facing you. If not, when you bite in all it will look like is a rectangle. I put a heart in the front to indicate it.
The cupcake recipe below is from where I found the cupcakes but I chose to top them with my favorite marshmallow frosting. Top however you'd like!
Happy Valentine's Day! 💘💗💘
Cupcakes and the hearts:
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
1 1/2 c. granulated sugar
3 eggs
2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. baking soda
the seeds from half a vanilla bean
1/4 t. salt
2 1/2 c. flour
1 1/3 c. whole milk
red food coloring
Buttercream below cupcake recipe
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees (F).
Mix the butter and sugar together at medium speed for about 90 seconds, until fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing until creamy. Be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl so everything gets well combined. Add the baking soda, baking powder, salt, and vanilla and mix until the batter is smooth. Finally, alternate between the flour and milk, beating on med-high speed until the batter is light and creamy.
Pour a little more than 1/3 of the batter (about a cup and a half) into a smaller bowl. Add red food coloring until you get your desired pink or red color. Pour the batter into a non-stick (or lightly greased) 8×8 baking pan and bake for about 20 minutes (mine only took 10 mins)until the edges of the cake start to turn golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow to cool completely. Once the sheet cake is cool, loosen the edges away from the pan with a knife and then invert the pan onto a cutting board. Use a small heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out a dozen cake hearts that are small enough to fit into an average-sized cupcake pan.
Spoon two heaping tablespoons of the remaining batter into paper-lined cupcake tins, so they're about half-full. Put one heart into each tin and press it point down into the batter. Keep all the hearts facing forward in the pan. Cover with another teaspoon of batter and bake for 24 minutes. Allow the cupcakes to cool before frosting.
Here's where it gets a bit tricky. Keep the cupcakes facing forward so you get the right cross-section of the heart when you cut or bite into the cupcake (to get the full heart effect). So keep all the cupcakes facing forward as you move them from the cupcake tin to a cookie sheet for cooling/frosting. After frosting, put heart candy on them (or some other decoration) that can also face forward so you know which way to cut the cupcake in order to see the heart shape inside (if you cut the heart in the wrong direction you just get a rectangle shape—not very romantic!).
Marshmallow frosting:
2 sticks of butter ( at room temp.)
1 cup of confectioners sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 – 7 ounce tub of marshmallow cream
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter until creamy.
Beat in one fourth of the sugar until fluffy, then repeat with the remaining sugar.
Beat in vanilla, then stir in the marshmallow cream until well blended.

Who will be the next American Idol? More than 4,000 hopefuls came to CenturyLink Center Omaha on Sunday to audition for the television show.
Host Ryan Seacrest made an appearance in the morning as auditions continued through the afternoon. Cameras weren't allowed inside, but you could see many people warming up their vocal cords outside.
Lianna Prill of Kearney learned she made it to the next round next week. "I'm really excited because I actually auditioned a couple years ago and didn't get through, so this is really exciting for me and I'm really pumped for what's to come."

Pate-keetongu doesn't actually play computer games, which is an odd statement for a man so adept at sculpting characters from them out of bits of Lego. His latest is hit game BioShock's Big Daddy, which despite Pate's coming down hard on his own creation for being a bit off, is all kinds of awesome sauce.
Sadly Lego haven't got the goulies to actually patent one for us, just in case their target demographic 'kids' get the wrong idea and find it a bit inaccessible…. in between watching snuff movies and drinking on street corners……
Anyway, you can read more of Pate's self deprecating patter here, but before that I recommend you check out his cracking work on Bio Shock's Sub Hulk and also Metroid's Samus Aran courtesy of Geekologie

More than 260 state corrections officers graduated Friday afternoon, after two months of intense classroom training.
They will start their on-the-job training at one of the 31 facilities around the state on Monday.
A department spokesperson tells News 10 about 50 corrections officers retire each month, so they are in constant need of new team members.
"These careers can be very trying on people's families, since our officers have to work 24 hours a day, seven days a week in our correctional facilities," said Russ Marlan of the Dept. of Corrections. "It's great that their families can come and watch these folks graduate and that's probably the best part."
Corrections officers can make up to $50,000 a year. They have to meet certain qualifications to apply, including a background check and drug test, and must complete more than 320 hours of training.

Senator Menendez is under serious scrutiny over allegations that he paid for underage hookers while on vacation in the Dominican Republican. But how far could this investigation go? If Menendez really had 'relations' with these 'ladies of the night,' was he alone? Did Menendez bring along other friends on these trips to the Carribbean? If he did, do any of them wear the same nifty lapel pin that he does?

Sleepwalker Lyrics - Parkway Drive
I feel the rage growing inside me,
A fear i cannot contain,
At war with an enemy that does not rest who will never relent.
This city, these lifeless catacombs, our tombs they have become.
Buried alive at birth never to return.
Chained the masses, trapped and trained by vicious minds,
I let them tear away everything inside,
Strip away my humanity,
Fracture my identity,
Sacrifice my integrity,
Just bodies through the teeth of the combine,
At war with an enemy that does not rest who will never relent,
Sleepwalk our lives away,
In search for shallow graves,
Sleepwalk our lives away.
Lost souls, lost.
Just bodies through the teeth of the combine,
Just bodies through the teeth.
I feel the rage growing inside me,
I will not contain.
I have come to question every truth i know.
Not one more step in the name of progress,
In the name of blind ambition,
How the fuck am i supposed to feel when everything i know lies broken at my feet

sigh, i wish the mandreds proc carried its damage through, afterall, it isn't a bonus hit, it adds straight 500 damage to your swing.
then again, i can't even fathom trying to lane against that.

Sivir's recommended items are fine, save for chalice. Just add a banshees or frozen mallet in and you're ready to roll. As Phreak said as well, Ghost Blade is effective.
Little known to the community at large, Sivir sometimes moonlights in the role of "singing telegram" and "birthday cake center".
Amazing MuhKuh
about armor pen.. i always thought ricchochet dealt magic damage.. was that changed?
Sivirs place is at the bottom of the trash can. Garbage damage, garbage spell shield on a 20 second cooldown "lulz black shield anyone" Skill shot thats too slow and doesent scale with physical DPS like it should. Her ult and richochet are great, thats about it.

Charles Saatchi to Divorce Nigella Lawson; Cites "Disappointment" With Wifeby Free Britney at . Updated at . Comments
Charles Saatchi, Nigella Lawson's husband, has announced he's divorcing the celebrity chef, expressing disappointment she failed to publicly defend him.
The fallout from their disturbing public fight - he allegedly choked Nigella Lawson in a restaurant June 9 - culminated in the demise of their marriage.
Saatchi, 70, an art collector and global ad agency co-founder, told The Mail (UK), "I am sorry to announce that Nigella Lawson and I are getting divorced."
"I am disappointed that she was advised to make no public comment to explain that I abhor violence of any kind against women, and have never abused her physically in any way."
Saatchi was interviewed by British police for five hours and received a formal police citation, called a caution, which means he admitted his actions.
The formal police caution formally ended the matter with police.
In his statement, Saatchi acknowledged, "I feel I have clearly been a disappointment to Nigella," but also sought to once again downplay the fight.
"This is heartbreaking for both of us as our love was very deep, but in the last year we have become estranged and drifted apart," the statement said.
"The row photographed at Scott's restaurant could equally have been Nigella grasping my neck to hold my attention - as indeed she has done in the past."
He had been married to Lawson, 53, for more than 10 years.

Benny Hester is a music artist and songwriter. He is best known for his chart-topping songs, "When God Ran" and top 40 crossover hit "Nobody Knows Me Like You". Benny has written and recorded more than twenty-five number one and top ten songs.
Benny?s first single, ?Jesus Came Into My Life?, was a breakthrough recording, becoming the first contemporary rock song to be universally accepted and widely played across all Christian Radio formats. The title track from his second album, ?Nobody Knows Me Like You?, reached number one on the Christian Music Charts and became the first CCM song to break the Billboard Top 40 AC Charts.
Born in Waco, Texas, Benny began studying classical music at age four and continued his studies through high school with European teachers and musical innovators John and Martha Reuther. He was among the first to master John Reuther?s futuristic chromatic ?checkerboard? designed keyboard and one of a handful of musicians to become expert on the instrument, playing public performances to demonstrate its attributes over the standard keyboard.
Benny auditioned and was chosen to sing with ?The Texas Boys Choir?.
He became the youngest member of the Texas Swing Band ?Sam Weaver and The Texas Playboys?, and appeared on the band?s weekly television show playing alongside guest music legends including Johnny Gimble and Ernest Tubb.
While in high school, Benny was one of the founding members of the popular pop-rock band ?The Morticians?. He wrote songs for the group and included them in sets for the band?s sizable revved up audiences. Headed now by original band member Joe Hall, ?The Morticians? continue to play concerts regularly - www.themorticians.com
Benny was hired to play in the live stage band and orchestra for the long running musical ?Texas? and continued with the show for two years. While performing in ?Texas? he founded the singing duo ?Hester & Hilton? with partner Steve Hilton. ?Hester & Hilton? performed their own songs along with stylized takes on songs by their favorite artists. While playing El Paso, Benny was asked to write two songs for a recording session by the group ?The Sojourners?. It turned out to be his first professional recording session as a songwriter. The two songs were produced and engineered by Norman Petty and recorded at Norman Petty Studios in Clovis, New Mexico, where Benny had the opportunity to work with the legendary Petty and record in his hit studio. Benny and his older brother, a music fan with a ten-year head start on him, grew up singing and listening to Buddy Holly songs. Norman Petty produced and recorded those songs. Benny coincidentally attended Texas Tech in Lubbock, TX, home to Petty and birthplace of Holly.
Hester moved to Las Vegas, Nevada where he met music producer and recording engineer Brent Maher. He taught music at a private music school, recorded ?Hester & Hilton? demos at Bill Porter?s United Recording Studios, and later formed a successful jingle advertising company, MusAd, which dominated the Las Vegas radio and television market for ten years. He penned the song for Hickory Farms Of Ohio and Nevada?s largest newspaper, The Las Vegas Review Journal, with the slogan ?The RJ is Las Vegas? appearing on billboards and ads still. Together Benny and Brent wrote and produced commercial songs for many Las Vegas hotels and banks, Nevada's largest home builders, trendy clothing manufacturers and outlets and notably, at the request of coach Jerry Tarkanian, the original University Of Nevada Las Vegas fight song and school song for the UNLV ?Runnin? Rebels? basketball team. Maher went on to produce Hester's first two albums, the self titled, Benny..., and his first CCM album for Billy Ray Hearn's Sparrow Records.
Maher and Bill Porter, Elvis Presley?s recording and sound engineer, brought Elvis?s band to record with Benny for his first album. The band included Ronnie Tutt, James Burton, Glenn Hardin and Jerry Scheff, as well as Larry Mahoberac and Joe Osborn.
The finished masters and packaged albums, ready for record company distribution, were lost in the studio-warehouse fire that destroyed United Recording. Benny?s first album was never released. Only a few albums survived the fire, ending up in the hands of collectors.
Hester has since released a string of hit albums and chart topping songs, and has performed thousands of concerts. His recording of ?When God Ran? is the longest running number one song in Contemporary Christian Music history, number one for thirteen weeks, at which time the song held the number one spot on the AC and CHR Charts. Simultaneously Benny?s recording of ?Secret Thoughts? made its way to the number one slot on the ROCK Charts, causing him to sweep the top spot on all three. ?When God Ran? continues to be rerecorded by many groups and in many musical genres, making it to the top of the charts repeatedly. The latest version by ?The Kingsmen? took the number one spot on the Southern Gospel Charts in February 2009. Also, for the 2009 Fan Awards Nominations... Favorite Song - "When God Ran"... Favorite Album - "When God Ran".
From 1991 to 1996 Hester was the Music Producer/Musical Director, Songwriter and Co-Executive producer of the award winning MTV/Nickelodeon television series Roundhouse. He was nominated for seven songwriting and music producer awards, winning for ?I Can Dream? and ?Can?t Let Go? in the best ?Original Song? for television category, and three times as Co-Executive Producer for best ?Variety Special Or Series?.
Hester was the recipient of the prestigious ?Ollie Award? for ?Excellence In Television Programming For America?s Children?.
Benny lives in Southern California and continues to schedule appearances and concerts. A new album is in the works, and a sample of the latest studio tracks can be heard at www.bennyhester.com
