Food for People -- located at 307 W. 14th St. in Eureka -- is the food bank for Humboldt County. With a small but dedicated staff and a large group of volunteers, Food for People operates myriad programs designed to address the needs of those in the community who are experiencing hunger and food insecurity.
Food for People Executive Director Anne Holcomb walked DHHS Director Phillip R. Crandall, DHHS Assistant Directors Barbara LaHaie and Connie Beck and Supervisors Rex Bohn and Virginia Bass around the Food for People building and talked about its programs, including food pantries and free produce markets around the county, nutrition education classes, a gleaning program, three child nutrition programs, emergency food programs for seniors and the CalFresh Access Outreach Project, which is funded by DHHS.
"The department's relationship with Food for People has been a gratifying and effective one as we, as a county, work together to reduce the impacts of hunger on our children, families and elders," Crandall said.
"The efforts we saw at Food for People reinforce to me that the strategies of regionalized government and private-nonprofit partnerships, combined with the firepower of volunteers, is an effective way to reduce hunger in Humboldt while improving overall nutrition and health as well."
To further increase CalFresh awareness and enrollment, Food for People has received more than $1.06 million from DHHS as part of a yearlong contract that runs through September 2014. The funds are being used for a variety of purposes related to CalFresh, including outreach efforts, food purchases, Market Match incentive funds, staffing, operating expenses and more. Food for People staffers have pre-screened 1,609 individuals for CalFresh eligibility and processed more than 360 CalFresh applications since the beginning of the contract.
"Food for People's partnership with DHHS has provided a unique opportunity for us to work together on a variety of levels to address issues related to hunger, food insecurity and nutrition in Humboldt County," Holcomb said.
"The funding has played a critical role in helping us to expand outreach for CalFresh and provide direct application assistance for people who are struggling with food insecurity. We work closely with county staff and other community partners throughout that process to address questions about eligibility and enrollment."
DHHS funds also helped Food for People start a Mobile Produce Pantry, which travels to outlying communities, often setting up alongside DHHS' Mobile Outreach vehicle.
While Mobile Outreach brings DHHS services -- including CalFresh enrollment opportunities -- to residents in the county's more remote regions, the Mobile Produce Pantry runs a free produce stand, providing farm-fresh fruits and vegetables to households in need.
In the last year, 80,000 pounds of food were distributed through the Mobile Produce Pantry program.
"This helps connect folks with nutritious foods as they explore eligibility for CalFresh and other county services that might help stabilize their lives," Holcomb said.
In addition, DHHS funds were used in part to renovate Food for People's kitchen, where cooking classes are offered to young parents, seniors and other populations. These classes, Holcomb said, "reinforce the nutrition message that a healthy diet can be delicious and affordable."
Food for People provides food assistance for more than 12,000 people of all ages countywide each month.
Last year, the agency distributed more than 2.1 million pounds of food to low-income households.
Food for People does all this with 17 full-time and four part-time staffers and more than 400 volunteers, who last year donated 32,867 hours of their time.
Supervisor Bass noted that, "Food for People has been working to alleviate hunger and improve the well-being of our community for many years. This partnership with the county will help Food for People with its important mission and benefit the people of Humboldt County as a whole."
"I am so impressed by the efforts of Food for People and others who are doing similar work," Crandall said. "I'd like to thank the staff at Food for People for all of their hard work."

Tell me which Concord Area restaurants a Camberville Foodie would like?
- i
- InmanSQ Girl Feb 22, 2010 01:37 PM
I am intentionally posting to the Boston board instead of the New England board, so please do not move my topic!
I want to know which restaurants in the Concord Area are recommended by those that have experienced Boston / Cambridge / Somerville dining.
After years of living in the Somerville / Cambridge area, I am moving to Concord and am dreading the loss of local great food. I am hoping others on this board can suggest to me some places that won't make me feel like I have to drive a 1/2 hr back to my old hood everytime I want a tasty dinner (that I didn't cook myself).
Please note that "good" doesn't have to mean "pricey". In fact, given how poor we will be after having bought our new house, tasty cheap eats will be just what the doctor ordered (but feel free to mention the pricey restaurants too, as an ocassional date night might still be in the budget)! I am paticularly hopeful for cheap ethnic restaurants, as these are some of my favorite in the Boston area. Finnally, please do not feel limited to just the town of Concord, the surounding 15 minute drive area counts as local in my book.
Thank you all sooo much!
In Bedford, there's Dalya's, which always has something interesting. From Concord Center, go east on 62 into Bedford, then left on 4/225, and Dalya's will be on the left. They have both continental and north-african style specialties in a very pleasant big-old-house space. Their menu is online.
Across from the Concord Depot is La Provence, eat in or take out, excellent French meals and patisserie. I believe they close fairly early, so it's lunch, or get there early for dinner take-out. They also have a website.
There are a couple of threads on the Concord area, so do a search.
I've never had any of their prepared meals, but the Concord Cheese Shop is an excellent place for picnic provisions.
I love Concord -- Allstonian and I were married at the Scout House on Walden Street -- but I'm afraid you may well find it way more sparse than your current surroundings when it comes to quality eats.
re: BarmyFotheringayPhipps
A good Indian restaurant, Paani, opened up in Sudbury, the next town over. You've got a mediocre Chinese place called Chang An near the train tracks (they've got serviceable Peking Duck and Chicken with Pine Nuts). In Maynard (west on route 2 and south on 27), there is Thai Avenue for decent thai and Little Pusan for suburban Korean. Papa Razzi has a concord location too. Overall though, it's Metro-West, so don't expect at the level of Cambridge/Boston.
re: keith
Some places we like in the general area:
Id recommend Woo Jung in Ayer for korean over Little pusan any day. In fact we like it better than the cambridge area korean restaurants we have been to.
Next to papa razzi is a chinese restaurant downstairs from Sushi House called Asian Gourmet with some very good dishes. We order only off the authentic menu http://www.asiangourmetma.com/
West Concord you can get very good/fresh fried seafood to go at Twin Seafood. They close fairly early though, seems its always too late when we think of going. http://www.twinseafood.com/welcome_in...
In Acton, be sure to visit Idylwildefarms http://www.idylwildefarm.com/ All sorts of fruits/veggies/gourmet foods. You can also get alot of prepared foods, sandwiches, baked goods....
In the summer you will want to visit Kimball's in westford for ice cream and they also do decent fried seafood. http://www.kimballfarm.com/
re: hargau
A much closer Kimball's minus the seafood is out on Monument Street just over the Carlisle line.
re: cassis
In the summer for ice cream, I'd give Bedford Farms a try. I think they still have an outpost in Concord. They make their own non chocolate flavors, which are really good, especially their vanilla, and their chocolate based flavors are Richardson's, which is fine.
by the way, welcome to the 'burbs ISG, I'll miss your Inman reviews!
re: justbeingpolite
When I worked in Concord we would go over to Kimball's in Carlisle in the summer for lunch. Yes, an ice cream lunch. It's that good and a small size is nearly a pint of ice cream so it really was a lunch for us!
They make some of the best ice cream in New England. We drive out from Boston on summer weekends because it's worth that trek!
re: crystallyn
I drive there from Lexington - it's programmed into my GPS with a heart icon. It's everything an ice cream stand should be - fresh, homemade ice cream, in a laid-back, pastoral setting.
Here are a couple to try. In Maynard there is a place called cast iron kitchen, very interesting menu that we have always enjoyed, I've sent others who said they had a bad time, service-wise but the food was still good.
In Acton, on 2A there is a strip mall, Nagog Park (just past the intersection of 2A & route 27. There are 3 restaurants in there: Crossroads, great drinks and although a full serivce restaurant that is always busy, we usually sit at the bar and have sandwiches or appys and those great drinks. Couple doors down, IL Forno, Italian food that is very filling with interesting combos, it is a BYOB place which is one of the reasons we love it, at lunch a friend and I can bring a bottle of Prosecco, have a great lunch and spend less than $10 each! We often have big group dinners there as well. Couple more doors down, Daniela's Cantina, mexican. They just moved to this new location from a tiny place on the other side of Acton, I must say things have not yet reached the standards of the old place. Try for lunch first that way you don;t lose too much $$$.
Lastly: Chelmsford on Route 110 (this is on the way to the Movie theater in Lowell)
Here's just a list that you can google and these are all great: Tango Cafe, Cafe Madrid,Moonstones and Feng Shui. You also might try the blog of "bistroBroad" who often talks about the greater lowell area. Lowell is also worth an adventure.
re: momoftwo
Daniellas??? uggh its like taco bell with drinks. Read some of the reviews here and on yelp about this place!
re: hargau
I've heard Sakura in Chelmsford is good sushi. In Bedford, the little place opposite the town green, Ginger, is quite good sushi. Farther through Bedford towards 128 is Firebox, new and improving BBQ which got a good write up on Pigtrip. Lester's BBQ in Billerica is also often good. If you're up to Billerica, don't miss Sichuan Gourmet, one of the best sichuan restaurants in the Boston area, and the Pongol, which gets good comments here for their buffet.
re: justbeingpolite
I've had sushi at Sakura and enjoyed it.
There's a Japanese steak house in Concord near the prison rotary that I like, but I'm probably just embarassing myself by mentioning it on Chowhound. Waiting for the reply that informs me that it's not even fit for dog food in 3, 2, 1....
re: scratchie
As long as you're there, why not go into the prison itself. Here's a link about the Fife and Drum, run by the Concord inmates:
re: justbeingpolite
We also enjoy Sichuan Palace which is in the same plaza as Sakura in Chelmsford. Larger menu and more spacious atmosphere than Sichuan Gourmet but we still love S.G. in Billerica.
If your heading that way there is also decent thai at Yoong Tong 2.
Head to Lowell/drum hill area for Pho 88 for Vietnamese (they also have bubble tea). Downtown Lowell has many options as well.
Many of these are getting beyond the 15min area i think though.
Atlantic Sea Grille on 2A isnt bad, i only have been once but it was decent, plain jane sit down seafood. Very much preferred over Scupper Jacks which im not a fan of at all.
re: hargau
Bubble tea is also available at Asiana Bistro in Bedford and the new Formosa Taipei in Lexington (former Denians) which serves (suprisingly, based on the name ;)) Taiwanese chinese food.
re: justbeingpolite
I like Asiana Bistro for Cantonese food. It is a fusion restaurant but I have had mostly Cantoneses food. Their Thai red curry is also pretty good. Last year my Chinese colleagues had a banquet for Chinese New Year's and it was all very good especially considering it is in the suburbs.
re: Alcachofa
I meant Concord, MA, but thanks for checking. Most people would tell you "Boston Area" only counts as within the Rt 95 loop, but some try to pretend that anything within Rt495 counts (usually those in the burbs still in denial) :), LOL!
re: Blumie
I have actually not been to Verrill, how does it compare to idylewilde?
re: hargau
Verrill's is the best of many of very, very good farmstands out here in Metrowest.
Idylwilde has a better selection as far as a grocery store goes, but Verrill's produce is better.
re: hargau
Verrill's is more "farmstand-like" even though it's expanded and has better to-go foods and baked goods. Idylwild is larger, has been more crowded when I've gone, and feels more like a store.
For sushi, you can head into Lexington to Daikanyama. Can'r really recommend anywhere else in Lexington Center. Also, yummy small plates at Blue Stove in Nordstrom at Burlington Mall.
Well, as a person living in Stow I would say your best bet is to drive East along route 2 until you hit Arlington. .....
Other options include "J's" at Nashoba Winery in Bolton. The dinners can be a bit pricey, but they have a very nice brunch. Oishi in Sudbury is nice for Sushi. I really like Sorrento's brick oven pizza in Acton, there is one in Concord. You can also get pizzas made and ready to cook at home. There is Nancy's Airfield Cafe at Stow Airport. They have nice fresh ingredients and they serve dinner on Fri/Sat. I've only been there for breakfast, but I've sworn off them because the service is so mediocre (I should really have a waitress come by to offer me coffee once in 20 min when I wait for food, with only 2 other tables). I've been eating at the Stow Cafe on route 117 for breakfast. Nice Brazillian lady owns it and if they have the coconut french toast on the menu get it. Cast Iron Skillet in Maynard is good if you are picky about which small plates you order. Monsoon Indian is half bad at the Acton location, but not too happy about the Maynard one anymore. Daniella's in Acton is no longer, Julia's the breakfast place has expanded into their space. (Bad food, cheep Margarita's) Chloe's in Hudson was a real gem, but the owners had to reallign their expectations of price after they opened. They do have 3 wine dinner's on Wednesday I've heard are good, but I haven't been there in years. (Their Mac&Cheese was excellent.) If you are on 117 near the Stow/Bolton line and happen to see a sign outside Applefield's Farm Stand that says "Peggy's Eggrolls Today" STOP, get out, get the eggrolls.
re: stupiddog
I have to second stupiddog's response (and no, we don't know each other). I live in Concord, and it's almost a complete food wasteland. The Concord Cheese Shop is fantastic...but not as a restaurant. La Provence is quite good...but not fantastic (their bakery is nummy but a meal usually is more than sugar and flour and butter).
Keep on truckin' down 2. I do that a lot around dinner time.
re: stupiddog
I agree on the Acton Sorrento's pizza. I've decided to avoid the subs hereafter though because they're not to the same standard.
Daniela's in Acton does still exist: it moved to the mall at Nagog Park. However, most here are agreed that it is very bad.
Also in that mall is Il Forno, which can do a good pizza too.
I'm not a fan of the Monsoon in Acton; last time I was at the one in Maynard, that was much better. Shame if that one has gone downhill.
re: stupiddog
Thanks for the eggroll tip! I live in the area and never heard of this. I'm going to have to keep an eye out now whenever I'm on 117.
I'll have to second the rec for Sorrento's in Acton and Concord. Respectible wood-fired pie. Also, in addition to Idylwilde Farm in Acton, check out Wilson Farm in Lexington.
Sweet Bites in Acton has decent breakfast and lunch sandwiches.
I don't get the local love for Julie's in Acton for breakfast. I thought it was pretty meh when I went with a friend, but he loved it.
re: bear
The love for Julies is that is a cheap place to get breakfast in the AM, which you think there would be more of in the area. I don't love the food, I just don't want to spend $9 on 2 scrambled eggs, toast and homefries if they are only so-so, which it can be easy to do at other places. (some mornings my breakfast needs just aren't that complicated.) There is a diner in Clinton behind the post-office that I like on the week days, but that is a little further west.
Sandwiches and scones from Sally Ann's bakery on Main in Concord. (Take out, bench outside if it's nice) Also Sandwiches and muffins from Country Kitchen (takeout) on Sudbury Rd right by the train tracks (Concord crossing).
Count me as a Concord resident who recommends the drive back towards Cambridge (although I *love* living here). But if you're out this ways...
About 15-20mins from Concord Center, in Sudbury, is Oishii Too. Great sushi joint. Expensive. Try the crispy sake maki in mango sauce.
I am a fan of Cast Iron Kitchen in Maynard, and also the Blue Coyote Grill. Neither is exquisite, but both do well.
Unless you just want alcohol, stay away from Sierra's on 117. Terrible food, but decent margarita.
In Concord, well, I like the sandwiches at Nashoba Brook Bakery. Both the cafe at the West Concord train station and Helen's in Concord Center do good, basic breakfast (with the train depot joint getting the #1 spot). Helen's is a former Brigham's, and the lunch and dinner aren't quite to Brigham's standards (laughing as I write that). You'll learn to accept Chang An for take-out. Serafina's can be pretty decent, but is a bit expensive for what it is. I've been to Papa Razzi a few times, and feel safe with the chicken caesar salad. I don't know your age, but The Concord Inn is terrific if you're 70+.
Again, I love living here, but as a former Cambridge and Belmont resident, you're in Kansas now when it comes to food.
Cast Iron Kitchen in Maynard; Bulfinch's & Luigi's in Sudbury; drinks & music @ Colonial Inn in Concord; Ixtapa Mexican in Lexington
Dalyas (excellent food, great atmosphere, excellent service)
Ginger (decent sushi)
Luigis (decent red-sauce Italian)
Flatbread Company (wood-fired clay oven flatbread pizzas)
Riverview (on the river on Route 4, great inexpensive breakfast and lunch with some Greek specialities thrown in)
Sichuan Gourmet
Oishii II (excellent sushi, but beware you can spend a lot)
La Provence (sandwiches, pates, take-out)
Walden Grille (has a nice bar, decent food)
Paparazzi (has an ok bar, decent, surprisingly authentic, Northern Italian, can be noisy)
Vincenzo's (has a small bar but fun to eat at, decent not too expensive Italian, can be very nosiy)
Serafina (has a very nice bar, attempt at fine Italian dining doesn't quite come off, service can be poor, can get nosiy).
Not restaurants:
Verrill Farms (don't miss the Tomato & Corn Festival, and if Guida Ponte is doing anything go along, she is a great chef)
Concord Cheese Shop
Concord Teacakes (try the Anise Drops)
Twins Seafood (the fishcakes are excellent and cheap)
Kimballs (was Bates Farm) Icecream (on Route 225 west of Bedford, make sure to go there in August when they have the peach icecream, fabulous)
La Riviera Gourmet (charcuterie/bakery on Route 4/225 between Lexington Centre and 128)
Nine Acre Wines
Vintage (wine merchant, West Concord)
re: cap
Re Billerica: Dissenting view of Riverview; worst breakfast I can remember - lord, the food was awful - and lousy service. I'd go to Belly Buster, on 3A in Billerica, instead; nothing special, but reliable, fairly cheap diner-style breakfast and good, fast service. Sichuan Gourmet is great great great sichuan, but has lousy generic-Chinese (not a dis, just a point to remember if, like me, you often dine with someone who dislikes spicy food and prefers generica).
If you're gonna be out this direction, explore north up route 3. Search the NE board for threads about Lowell, and especially look for lexpatti's posts - she's a great resource about restaurants in this area. Lowell has more interesting and better Asian restaurants than anything closer to Boston, and the dining scene there is much better than I, at least, ever expected when we moved out this way. We had an awesome breakfast this morning at Dream Diner in Tyngsboro, a minute or two off of route 3, and I know there are a few other places in the area we want to try.
Sichuan Gourmet
502 Boston Rd, Billerica, MA 01821
Dream Diner
384 Middlesex Rd, Tyngsboro, MA 01879
Every time we get to Oishii Too in Sudbury we wish we lived closer to it - it's far and away consistently the best sushi spot in the entire Boston area. Always worth even a long drive.
I can sooooo relate to you, Inman SQ girl! I just moved away from Cambridge too to Concord, MA, and I've been too paranoid to try the restaurants there, but I have been to Nashoba Brook Bakery, Oishii too, Woo Jung in Ayer, and takeout at Twin Seafood, and that's it I like them all and can wholeheartedly recommend all of them for various reasons.
For instance, I have only gone to Oishii too and am too scared to eat at Sushi House because I used to live across the street from New Deal Fishmarket.
And Woo Jung has reliable but simple Korean food, and the presentation and ingredients are basic, not as fancy as Koreana, or as fresh as the korean places at Super88...
And Nashoba Brook Bakery is nice because you can watch them make the bread while you eat it and take home a bread loaf souvenir that's at least $2-3 cheaper than buying it at whole foods. I eat at home A LOT more now, and drive into Cambervile for cheaper better food, during non rush hours, it only takes half an hour, right?
SO, instead of actually eating at local places, here's what I've been doing instead:
1. Buying in season produce at Idylwilde farms, carefully avoiding the chocolate and bakery aisles, but finding a lot of their nice cheeses. And juicing oranges.
2. Joining that Cape Ann Fresh Catch CSF, which had a pickup in Lincoln and Acton this winter. I used to buy pounds of Maine shrimp at new deal, with the head on, and this was my only way to get my hands on it this year.
3. Going to Carlson farms for apples or all of the other farms around Bolton/Harvard/Ayer to pick your own fruit! I'm still enjoying frozen and canned stuff from this summer.
4. I will probably start picking up farm eggs at Codman Farms or Pete and Jens Backyard birds soon...
5. And then Verril Farms. Thursday evenings they sell pulled pork sandwiches! Friday is chili night. If you can't cook, these evening takeouts are reasonably priced and as close to homemade as you can get, especially if you also pick up something from their brownie table...
In all, I've really enjoyed cooking at home living in Concord, and in the end, don't feel too guilty about occaisionally dropping by Oishii too and spending the big bucks.
Hi Inman Sq Girl. - Welcome to Concord.
I've lived here for a dozen or so years, and found that there's not a lot chow wise around.
As Mentioned in other posts, your best bet is to take a 15 or 20 minute drive east on 2, and hit Blue Ribbon, or any of the other Arlington Belmont or west Cambridge joints.
Locally: Thai Chili Maynard is very good, Um, what's next. Up for an adventure, head to Blood Farm in West Groton for great beef and pork and bacon. Heard good things about the Korean joint in Ayer, about 20 Minutes away.
Concord and Acton wise, it's sort of a wasteland.
Wish that weren't so, but welcome to quiet. Big time.
Chris Chung and Chris Touche (Clio,Uni) are opening a place in Lincoln..AKA Bistro?
That's something I'd be excited about coming to the area if I lived there.
One place that hasn't been mentioned in Concord is Farfalle Italian Market. It's one of those hidden places. it's across the tracks from la Provence, kind of behind Chang Ann. They make very good paninis and various fresh dishes. They are very picky about the quality of their ingredients. They have a few tables or it's takeout.
I also second the recommendations for Sally Ann, Concord Cheese Shop, La Provence and Twin Seafood (very good clam chowder!). For lunch you won't be hurting in Concord, but for dinner, good luck.
La Provence
105 Thoreau St, Concord, MA 01742
I know this thread has been inactive for a couple of weeks, but it's right up my alley. I'm a lover of all foods Boston/Cambridge/Brookline, and have been working at Clock Tower in Maynard for 3 years now. I've tried most of the places mentioned, and can't believe no one pointed out Debra's Market in West Concord for soup. It's a small gourmet / health store that has some average to good prepared foods, however their soup is excellent. Yesterday I had a great red lentil with ginger and carrots even though it was 80 degrees out. The Chicken Barley and Veggie Chili are always good choices, and they usually have one or two others as well.
Other off the grid spots:
- Slowpokes BBQ is hidden in a warehouse on Beharrel St. behind the train station in West Concord. It's a catering kitchen not a restaurant,. and half the square footage is taken by a giant smoker. It's legit BBQ, but only available as takeout lunch. (found on pigtip)
- Thai Chili in Maynard was mentioned, but not given it's proper due. This is not average suburban Thai. The veggies are fresh and crispy and everything tastes wonderful. They serve a delicious noodle soup with their meals that makes it worth the trip.
- Savoury Lane in Acton is my go-to for deli. The sandwiches always taste great - Not everyone knows how to build a proper sandwich. Don't expect perfection (the pickles served with sandwiches are terrible), but it's pretty good overall.
Concord Cheese Shop, La Provence, Nashoba Brook Bakery, Verrill Farms, and Oishii Too are all in my regular rotation as well. I'm never in the area for dinner, so I'll leave that to others.

re: Foodie_BBQ
I will have to try Thai Chili, Im not a fan of the Thai place in Acton so would be good to find one around.
I went to Savoury Lane only once, years ago... no line, yet it took forever to make a simple corned beef with swiss sandwich to go. It was $7-8 and patheticly small. Like smaller than what i would expect HALF a $8 sandwich to be. Never went again. Maybe its changed? Maybe they were low on corned beef that day? I dunno..

re: Foodie_BBQ
Thanks for the Slowpokes tip! Will try it out for lunch.
I have been to Fishbones in Chelmsford center for lunch and dinner...very good I thought. The tuna steak was not only huge but was fantastic. A great beer selection as well.
I usually get pizza from Sorrento in Concord when I'm in the area, but the past two times I've gone to Walden Italian Kitchen in West Concord. Right now, at least, based on the cheese and the salami we got tonight, I think Walden has the edge in our house.
The first time at Walden, I got some slices that tasted really good and I thought maybe I was particularly hungry so I decided to give it another try to see if I still thought it was good. I did. The crust has some nice fermentation, although it could have been cooked a bit longer. Sauce was fine and the cheese had some flavor. Nice pie overall.
Haven't tried the subs or pasta yet. Salads peopel got while I was waiting looked decent, and the rolls looked house-made from their pizza dough.
I like the smoky char from the wood fire at Sorrento, but, at least right now, think we'll stick with Walden.

Sorrento's has gotten a bunch of mentions, but no love for New London Style?
Sorrentos for pizza, New London Style for everything else.
The buffalo chicken sub (no tomatoes) is great, as are the stromboli.
Classic New England Greek joint.
The only exception is steak and cheese sub, which I get at Sorrentos.
Also, someone mentioned the Colonial Inn, its very blue hair during the day, but go to the bar at night and it gets younger (30's and 40's, this is a rich suburb after all.) The chowder and the pot pie are excellent. Also try and come on a night John Fitzsimmons is playing guitar. He was my English teacher; local legend. Great guy to talk to.
re: CptBuck
Yea no love here for New London. I have not had the Stromboli but have had far too many poor subs both hot and cold there, that i wont ever go there again. For Steak and Cheese id suggest going to T.C. Landos not far from Sorrentos at all and far superior subs. Same owners as Carls in Waltham
re: hargau
I'm a partisan for their buffalo chicken sub. They also do chicken fingers and fries well. And again, the stromboli is worth checking out. Heart attack on a plate, but damn good.
And their prices are good.
But yeah, no doubt about TC Lando's, it's just that I live like 3 blocks from the depot, so I go with the ultra convenience.
re: CptBuck
I will have to try the stromboli some day.
The fries are straight out of the freezer bag off the sysco truck, how is that chowish? Not sure about the chicken fingers, but likely the same? Oh and the place across the street, de capri? I went there only once. Ordered buffalo chicken fingers, ate 1/2 of one in the car on the way home, seemed odd. Got home to look at them in the light (it was night) and saw they were raw chicken. Only the breading was slightly cooked... So that place is off the list!
re: hargau
"What we have here is failure to communicate."
I've been talking about the Concord New London Style, the Acton New London Style is a completely different restaurant owned by different people.
I really can't speak to the quality of the Acton NLS as a result, nor DiCapri's for that matter.
But, if this is any indication http://www.hiddenboston.com/NewLondon...
ISgirl, have you moved? haved you tried AKA bistro in lincoln? supposed to be great.
re: opinionatedchef
We have moved and have been very grateful for all the great advice on this board. We've only been in Concord 2 months, so here is an update on what we've tried, but it is far from exhaustive :)
1. Vincenzo's - Surprisingly good Italian. The strip mall location initially lowered my expectations, but I was wrong. I had some beautifully done fish (my measure of a good chef) with a flavorful but not overpowering wine sauce. I'll definitely go back.
2. Sorrento's - Again much better than I expected from the burbs. Not quite Pizzeria Regina from the North End, but still quite good. Great variety of creative toppings, excellent quality of ingredients, and a pretty good crust thanks to the brick oven.
3. Spicepepper Garden (Acton, MA) – Really good Chinese. Wonderfully fresh ingredients, not at all oily or greasy, and some really authentic and creative options. I especially loved the sichuan eggplant…extremely flavorful and just the right amount of kick. Duck mooshi was an another surprise hit…very fresh veggies, tender duck, all perfectly flavored with just enough sauce to make it tasty without being goopy. Can't wait to go back.
4. AKA Bisto – Was a bit of an unexpected disappointment. I am just hoping we miss ordered or came on the wrong night (we went on a Monday night). We stuck to the French side of the menu, I had the Cock au Vin, my husband the Duck Confit with potatoes cooked in duck fat. The Cock au Vin was eerily flavorless, like someone cooked all the flavor out of the wine and my husband's confit was dry of all things. I'll give them one more shot as the service was solid and the reputation contrary to our own, but I was definitely underwhelmed.
5. Concord Inn – Adorable and the food was actually quite tasty ( I know they have a rep as a tourist trap and blue hair magnet). I got the chicken pot pie, which was clearly made from scratch, great crust, big chunks of chicken, and a flavorful sauce. I don't know how they do on more challenging fair, but for old yankee comfort food, they seem to know their stuff.
6. The 99 – Yah I know. It's convenient, clean, staffed with very friendly waitresses, and the food isn't half bad if you choose carefully.
7. Helen's – Sweet little sandwich and ice cream type spot. Food wasn't stellar but is was certainly tasty enough. The ice cream was good and the atmosphere had just the right touch of kitsch. I got the fish taco, which was pretty tasty, but my husbands dish was more of a miss. Over all not bad though.
8. Walden Street Grill- Ugh. This restaurant wants to be good, but fails. Their menu reads beautifully, but execution was just terrible. My Walden chicken salad had ridiculously dry chicken even the dressing couldn't save and when my husband asked for anchovies with his Caesar salad, they gave him ones that were pickled!! Ruined the dish. Dark depressing atmosphere was the final nail in the coffin for us. Tell me if we hit I on a bad day because I wanted them not to suck.
9. Club Car Café – Another Ugh with caveats. I think we ordered the wrong meals. This is clearly a breakfast place and we came in not knowing this and ordered lunch. As we sat, people all around us got what looked like tasty breakfasts, but our lunches were meh at best. Limp and oily French fries, over mayoed tuna fish melts, and super bland coleslaw (like seriously, it was just watery mayo and cabbage). I'll give them another shot based on what I saw, but I'm not in a rush as my hubby doesn't like breakfast so I need breakfast places that can do lunch too.

re: InmanSQ Girl
Did you have the Sorrento's pizza there? I just realized that I've only had take-out, and that could explain why I've only had below-mediocre pizza.
re: Alcachofa
We bought takeout at Sorrento's, but we live close enough that my husband was able to pick them up just as they came out of the oven and have them out on our dining room table for our friends to devour in 10 minutes, so they were still quite hot and crusty. I am guessing they'd loose some spark if they sat, self steaming in the take out box for too long.
re: InmanSQ Girl
If you're at the Club Car Cafe at lunchtime, head away from Concord Teacakes and on your left, across the tracks, walk to Walden Pizza or some such name. They are before Deborah's Natural Gourmet and usually have a plastic Pizza Guy holding a menu of the day's specials. They make a great marinated green bean salad with chicken and the calzones are pretty good.

re: Alcachofa
If you heat up a pizza stone and put the pizza on it for a couple of minutes when you get home, the pizza is as good as fresh out of the pizza oven.
re: InmanSQ Girl
Walden Grille has its ups and downs. The owners will hire a chef every couple years to mix up the menu but then fire him soon after and replace him with the cheapest line cook they can find. If you go when they have the chef on board its worth it. Otherwise its just another dive bar. Main St. Cafe (Which also does dinner) has stolen a lot of their thunder ever since they got a liquor license. Better food, better crowd, although their live music nights are sometimes insufferably bad.
At sorrento's if you're into "crazy toppings" their "Spicy Fingers" pizza and their Tortelini pizza are both awesome (i'm especially partial to spicy fingers, if you want a buffalo chicken pizza get this, and not their actual "buffalo chicken pizza" which is good but not really what you'd expect.)
Both are made up as slices at lunch.
Helen's has too many menu options, its not a place to be adventurous in. The frappes are fantastic as are the burgers (including patty melts) and almost all of the sandwiches. Same with breakfast. Otherwise beware. Its the same waitstaff almost every day though, so its very easy to set up "The Regular" order.

re: CptBuck
Yeah, the tortellini pizza is good. Sorrento's (at least in Acton) is one of those massive-slice places too; odd considering the quality. Order "a slice" and they give you two. The hot subs are pretty poor for some reason.
re: chickendhansak
Yeah the only sub I ever order there is the Steak and Cheese, which is usually good. I feel like the bread is sometimes a little off (because they use french bread over italian bread? as best as I can tell?) and they don't use enough cheese.
I get subs at New London Style in Concord (not ActonNLS, different restaurants.)
re: CptBuck
I will have to try the concord one. Im suprised they are different places given the identical menu and name.
I have had really bad luck at sorrentos with any meat products. Got a hamburger pizza once with rancid burger. (Harvard location). So are you saying the Concord location does something special with their fries other than opening the Sysco bag?
For subs the best around here i think is tc landos in Acton. They are famous for the steak subs but i have had man others that are good too.
re: hargau
I don't think the Sorrento's fries are very good. But their pizza's are excellent. Go with what they do well. I've never seen someone order a hamburger pizza there. Spicy Fingers, Pepperoni, Sausage, Mushrooms, Tortellini, chicken pesto, and the Acton, are my go-to choices and they've never failed me.
But I can vouch for Concord New London Style's fries being good. And again, I'm not sure that frozen fries are such a bad thing so long as they come out salty and are fried up crispy. And the menu's are similar, but not identical. Check out how many more stromboli the Concord NLS has over Acton NLS. They're both New England Greek places, there's going to be menu overlap.
re: CptBuck
Sorrento's spicy fingers i find disgusting too, Frozen, straight from a bag chicken fingers with a side of hot sauce in a plastic thing. Their basic pizza's are ok but after the meat incident i stick with plain cheese. Anything else i have had on their menu has been really bad. The entrees, subs, apps...
The new london websites say they both are owned by the "Botto" family.. I guess they are brothers or something..
I guess we just have different tastes. Im sure any of these places are ok in a pinch but certainly not a destination or any place id recommend to a "foodie".
re: InmanSQ Girl
so happy you reported back!! so many people fail to do that! gee i hope aka was a fluke; we're wanting to go there, but it won't be on a monday anyway because mondays are bad for fish and sushi. will also try your recs. Thanks again; beautiful country out there, congrats!
re: InmanSQ Girl
Thanks for the report on Spicepepper garden - will definitely try it, as options in Concord for Chinese are lacking to say the least. We made our way out to Concord 17 years ago now and I thank god I still work in Cambridge so I can more easily get a fix of old/new favorites. And still, for any sort of date night - we head into Boston/Cambridge or at least as far as Waltham. I feel your pain.
re: InmanSQ Girl
Moved from Medford/Somerville line a little over a year ago... I agree with many of the other posts, but am also, like you, a fan of the Colonial Inn. I especially liked their "comfort food" menu over the winter ! I also dig the historical decor; the tiny little tavern is a fun place to get a pint and a bite to eat. Besides a decent breakfast, The Club Car Cafe has great burgers -- not frozen like what they serve across the street at the 99! The Spicepepper Garden had delicious sushi the night I went... And I like the pizza at Walden Kitchen but also think it could be cooked longer. For a cheap treat, go to Twin Seafood for lunch or an early dinner and get a grilled fish sandwich -- I had the salmon and it was delish! -- and it comes with yummy fries or they will serve as a salad if you ask.

Santa Claus, Big Ben and vulnerable children: Our Christmas messages, 1907-1952
Santa Claus, Big Ben and vulnerable children: Our Christmas messages, 1907-1952
As we approach Christmas, this seems like an appropriate time to look back at our history. After all, we have been around since 1881 and although our name has changed during that time (we were originally the Waifs and Strays Society), we have celebrated Christmas each year and always aimed to make it a special time for children and young people.
Over the next several days we'll share some heartwarming Christmastime photographs and images from our archives. Today please enjoy these cards and adverts that we used when communicating to our supporters.
These images and photos date from 1907 through 1952. While they address areas of work (such as children's homes) that we no longer operate, their message of the need to support vulnerable children is just as vital today as it was when Edward Rudolf founded our organisation in 1881.
Please enjoy these images and continue to check back for updates between now and Christmas.

For related articles and information, please visit OCA's Genetic Engineering page, Millions Against Monsanto page and our Oregon News page.
A group called the
Organic Consumers Fund has made a second
$100,000 contribution to Oregon GMO Right to Know, the political action committee behind a proposed November ballot measure seeking to label genetically modified organisms.
That contribution brings
GMO Right to Know's total raised this year to $1.3 million.
Meanwhile the current issue of
Bloomberg Businessweek takes a deep dive into the company that is likely to lead the opposition to GMO labeling:
Monsanto. In an article tilted "Inside Monsanto, America's Third-Most-Hated Company," reporter Drake Bennett examines the agribusiness giant's operation and notes the political threat to the company's enormous investment in genetically modified foods:
Widespread public suspicion of GM crops has not stopped their spread: According to the Department of Agriculture, 90 percent of the corn and cotton and 93 percent of the soybeans planted in the U.S. last year were genetically modified. These are commodity crops used mostly for animal feed and fuel ethanol, but they also provide the corn syrup in bottled beverages and the soy lecithin in chocolate bars. And with the public still leery of the technology, it was perhaps inevitable that after a stretch of relative quiet the GMO wars would heat up again. The latest front is over food labeling: In the past two years, ballot initiatives that would have mandated labeling narrowly lost in Washington State and California; in May, Vermont's governor signed a bill into law.
In California and Washington, labeling opponents defeated labeling ballot measures by two percentage points in 2012 and 2013. Earlier this year, voters in Jackson County, Ore. approved a
ban on the use of GMO seeds in that county, a move which goes far beyond labeling.

Our program gives student interns intense training and mentorship by our professional staff. The internship is ideal for a rising sophomore or junior who is interested in politics, social change, and/or political reform.

"This is not the book I thought I was going to write," Coontz admits. She intended to show that marriage was not in crisis; merely changing in expected ways. But her exhaustive research suggested the opposite was true. Tracing matrimonys path from ancient times (when some cultures lacked a word for "love" and the majority of pairings were attempts to seize land or family names) through present day, she closely examines the many external forces at play in shaping modern marriage. Coontz details how societys attempts to toughen this institution, have actually made it more fragile. Her rich talent for analyzing events, statistics, and theories from a myriad of sourcesand enabling the reader to put them all in perspectivemake this provocative history book an essential resource.--Liane Thomas --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
This is a well researched book and readable to boot.
Historian Stephanie Coontz has widely researched the historical and anthropological record to create a picture of past marriages as they compare to the modern variety.
The marriage partnership is viewed as the single most important relationship a modern individual can experience.

November 28, 2014
LAS VEGAS (AP) - A fugitive in the slaying of his ex-girlfriend in Northern California told a Las Vegas judge he fears for his safety, but won't contest his transfer in custody to face murder and probation violation charges.
William Carl Gardner III told Justice of the Peace Joe M. Bonaventure that unspecified people threatened to kill him in California.
The judge responded that Gardner needed to lodge his concerns with jailers.
The 30-year-old Gardner surrendered to police and U.S. marshals early Tuesday after an hours-long standoff at a Las Vegas apartment.
He had been sought in the Nov. 18 shooting death of 32-year-old Leslie Pinkston in a vehicle in downtown Winters, Calif.
Pinkston was the mother of a 6-year-old girl. Police said she obtained a protection order against Gardner after previous confrontations.

Kathmandu is a dusty, polluted, frenetic town-village .First look -and its just a mess of hodge-podge roads awash with India's discarded ,decrepit,diesel spewing Tata Sumos , Boleros and Maruti 800s .Bisected by a terribly polluted Bagmati river ,it has humongous power cuts.Its otherwise stunning location - as the base of a vast bowl surrounded on all sides by snow peaked mountains,can be seldom appreciated as dust haze obscures everything.In Maurice Herzog's 1950's,it was car-less and tree dense.Not any more.
All the pollution now gets trapped at the cooler valley bottom, making it a bad place for those with eye, nose, chest problems.
Yet,there will be a point when,after the rains,a rainbow will hang from one distant snow peak to the other and the western peaks will be awash with streaks of melting gold - peach-orange-crimson-marmalade .And you would understand why it is so intensely romanced in song and word.
This dysfunctional , falling apart town,is one of the most charming and fascinating places I have been to. Not just because its highways lead on to the enchanting Pokhra .You can not ignore the traffic and pollution in the dozen odd main streets;but just wear a Rs 50 pollution mask and take a walk in the backlanes. And find timelessness, even peace and quiet .
Yes, you can still walk down in the bylanes of the charming old districts of Patan or Hanuman Dhoka in Kathmandu or a little way out in Bhaktapur; and find yourself face to face with timeless moments. So much of colour , life and energy suffuses these old corners ! These places hold your hand with a sweet little smile and beckon you to explore more.
The air is damp and cool here and architecture of old quarters is stunning.Life bustles regardless of both the beauty and the decay.The old and timeless stands casually and un-selfconsciously next to the garish and the transitory.An immense good-natured graciousness animates everyday life here - of a kind hard to imagine if you live in Delhi .Armed with a camera, I often felt, I was intruding in the lives of these people - as in these close knitted courtyards much of everyday life is carried on in the streets .But never once did I feel less than welcome .
And yes ! women dominate the public spaces here - running tea shops, selling incredibly fresh vegetables and fruits grown in their backyards, doing crafts ,gossiping , tending kids and livestock , smiling , offering water to strangers ,helping them out with directions and teaching them how to make the Nepalese sweet Lakhamari in their sweet shops ! Never felt unsafe here, nor was ever hustled . People may come and offer to be your guides but if you refuse they smile and say bye -unimaginable in Agra or Jaipur!
And what beautiful women ! with proud gaits , high foreheads and shining black tresses . I forget how many Manisha Koirala equivalents I saw in humble tea shops doing the washing, or in busy markets and temples .But they get married too young - most above the age fifteen sport sindoor !
I am drawn in by the clouds of incense wafting from the stupendously carved pagoda-ed wood and stone Hindu-Buddhist temples where serpents , dragons , Hindu deities - all sit convivially coiled over Buddha eyes; daubs of kum-kum decorate the ancient carved wood and prayer flags flutter in merry festoons.Busy squares have ancient statues draped with marigold .Roosters and dogs snooze by a massive temple bell strung on poles.Old men feed their goats juicy green grass by hand and ruddy faced school-kids slide down the backs of massive lions and griffins guarding the temples and palaces.
Quaint shops operate out of ancient doorways .Impossibly cute wicker baskets,mats, brooms,stone-ware being carved and polished ; shiny brass and copper vessels of delightful shapes ; all latch on to my hungry eyes .If I could , I would have bought them all.You feel somewhat rich as the rupee goes a little way longer here .But only in a crude commercial sense.
A little girl,grubby faced and pig tailed peers out of an impossibly cute wooden jharokha , a hill dog all black and brown , delirious with joy, joins her .The girl sees me looking and waves out - the dog licks her face .Granny picks the girl up but the dog continues the street vigil from the balcony .I have many such moments that stay fresh in my heart if not on camera.
Actually these people are rich for all their dismal HDI ranking.I did not see any starving or abandoned kids or ill-treated animals throughout my trip.Yes! they sacrifice goats at the temple and eat meat but they also really love their livestock and live in happy co-existence with the dogs, roosters, cows et al.They like to do a little vegetable gardening and this probably accounts for the food self -sufficiency (as well as good health) of the house-holds.
I am appalled to find that a similarly placed official in Nepalese bureaucracy earns a paltry 30000 rupees as salary and no perks like medical facilities and vehicle allowance .In offices , tells my husband, things move haltingly if at all .Even highest officials of land preside from decaying buildings where urine pong and a sense of despair as well as resignation pervades.The decision to offer a cup of tea to a visiting team is a big one - because no one can decide who will fund it .Worse is the indecision regarding who will reply and what will be the reply to the queries ? All communications are in hindi-scripted Nepalese -English proficiency is plain Bad.India for most,is a place of glittering modern dreams where money can be made and where all kinds of hospitals can be relied to treat all kinds of diseases which Nepal's crumbling state Hospitals can not.
If there is beauty in Kathmandu, despite non-existent Governance and hibernating administration ,its because of the natural good nature and hard work ethic of the common people who smile a lot .Maybe its the proximity to the Himalayas , maybe its a sense of making do with whatever they have, instead of noisily clamouring for more and more entitlements.
I would take Pokhra anyday or nurture Annapurna dreams,but still Kathmandu is an intriguing place which will exceed your expectations and belie your apprehensions. I have spent boring times in people-free ;desolate towns of middle east and Europe and in that dull diplomatic haven Geneva : which have all possible offerings of man-made and commercial nature,but where people move around with shuttered faces in monochrome unvarying environments .
Give me Kathmandu's rustic colour and life anyday.

UEFI Boot Fix
A new universal workaround will keep Linux booting on the next generation of UEFI-enabled personal computers.
The long saga of the UEFI boot debacle moved a step closer to resolution as the Linux Foundation announced that a solution is now in place to boot Linux from a system that uses UEFI boot security. The UEFI boot scandal emerged several months ago, when it was discovered that the new UEFI secure boot system championed my Microsoft and used with many new PCs entry the market today included a devilish detail that prevented the user from booting an installation disc for an alternative operating system such as Linux. Unless the new system is configured with a verifiable digital security key that is available to the UEFI system at boot, the new system won't install. Of course, the complexity of securing a key for every version of every possible Linux made the UEFI boot system extremely unfriendly to Linux -- and all other non-Windows systems.
Although some major distributions, such as Red Hat and Ubuntu, initially announced plans to make their own arrangements for secure boot security keys, the Linux Foundation wanted a solution that would work for all Linux variants. Linux kernel developer (and Linux Foundation board member) James Bottomley led the effort to find a solution. Bottomley announced in his blog that the fix is now available. At this stage, however, the solution is not recommended for everyday users. Bottomley's blog links to a pair of signed files <C>preloader.efi<C> and hashtool.efi, that must be integrated programmatically with the boot software on the disc. Bottomly also announced that he has put together a mini-USB boot image as a proof of concept that "...has an EFI shell where the kernel should be."
This universal UEFI fix will now begin its trek out into future Linux releases and will eventually become part of the Linux installation process.

Garden City Middle School's boys volleyball team swept Friends Academy, 5-0, in a decidedly lopsided matchup. Despite a near-rally that had them ahead in part of the third game, the Locust Valley players could not overcome Garden City's skills and preparation. The team and its coach were all smiles after the game. Players include: Jack Dignam, Ryan Ferro, Ryan George, Jack Kenney, Ryan Murasca, Chris Mercadante, Steven Morales, Colby Nolan, John O'Hare, Tommy Pallai, Kyle Pletchr, Luca Saponieri, Matt Sauchelli, Paul Sekas and Ryan Trabold.
Middle School Recreation Nights Announced
The Garden City Recreation Department is sponsoring Middle School Recreation Nights on the following dates at St. Paul's Field House: Friday, Feb. 28, 6th grade and Friday, March 7, All grades
These parties will be chaperoned by the Recreation staff and will run from 7 to 9 p.m. Admission is $5. A DJ will provide music and refreshments will be available for a nominal charge. The gym will be open for basketball, volleyball, dancing and other games.
Things are looking up if you were a captain for a top youth soccer team, Albertson Fury '91.
Fury captain Crystal Dunn, the 2012 Hermann Award recipient, was picked first overall by the Washington Spirit in the 2014 National Women's Soccer League Draft. The other captain on the Fury, Garden City's Emily Menges, was selected in the third round by the defending champion Portland Thorns, led by their former youth soccer coach, Paul Riley.
The Trojans of Garden City are still holding onto control of their own playoff destiny, even after a tough loss to Westbury 62-45.
"We got some good shots, we just didn't finish," said Garden City Head Coach Larry Steiner. "Westbury did a job on defense," he added. Westbury chose to play a 1-3-1 half court trap to limit the effectiveness of Garden City's strength, which is its outside shooting. The Trojans struggled to get through the trap.
The Garden City Centennial Soccer Club is looking for qualified coaches to head its new U10 teams that will tryout in June 2014. The birthdates for the children on these teams will fall between Aug. 1, 2004 and Dec. 31, 2005.
League play for these teams will begin in September 2014. Anyone interested in these positions would need to be available to run practices in the summer, begin with tournaments in August, be able to attend practices/games at least two times a week during the school year and be able to commit themselves and their teams for several tournaments during the year. A good candidate for this position will have good knowledge of all aspects of soccer and must be able to share the love of the game with elementary school-aged children. The commitment is great but the rewards are greater.
The Garden City Bombers 10U travel baseball team recently announced tryouts for 2014 Baseball Season. The Bombers play a high level of play versus other competitive travel teams from throughout the New York and Long Island metro area. All homes games are in Garden City; while preference is given to Garden City residents, boys from surrounding communities, such as Hempstead and Roosevelt are also welcome, and this diversity supports a very good team.
The spring season includes games every weekend, and tournaments during the weekends of Memorial Day, Father's Day, and Independence Day. The summer season, which runs until mid-August, generally includes weekend and weeknight play. There are also special games planned at the original Yankee Stadium, and on the new baseball field at Governors Island. The team also plays a fall season, and has extensive indoor training during winter months.
To be eligible, a player should be 10 years old by April 30, 2014.
Interested parents can inquire at 516-637-8644.
Family Fun Time On Sundays
On Sunday afternoons beginning Jan. 12, St. Paul's Field House will be open for Family Fun Time for village families. This open time provides the opportunity for families to enjoy various gym activities in an indoor environment. The gym will be available for use from 3 to 5:45 p.m. each Sunday until March 9.
This time is designated for family time only. No organized practices or workouts will be allowed. Although there will be staff to monitor activity, this is not a drop off program. Elementary-aged children are asked to be accompanied by an adult. For the safety of users, no lacrosse or baseball will be allowed.
On Monday, Jan. 13, the Garden City Middle School 8th grade team completed its undefeated 11-0 season with a 61-40 victory against Thompson. Many of the same hoopsters played on last year's 7th grade team that went undefeated as well. One of the major highlights of the campaign was playing on the high school court Friday, Jan. 10 in a 57-22 victory versus South Woods.
On Wednesday, Jan. 15, Harlem Wizard, James "Roadrunner" Tyndal, visited Garden City primary and elementary schools to promote the upcoming Feb. 1 rematch between the Harlem Wizards and the Garden City teachers. The game, sponsored by the Garden City Student Aid and Scholarship Fund, tips off at 1 p.m. at Garden City High School. Ticket order forms have been distributed through the schools and tickets are also available on-line at www.harlemwizards.com/schedules Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door (if available on game day).
In this Sportscenter Era in which every athlete wants to become the next LeBron James or Kobe Bryant, it is refreshing to hear a player attempt to carve her own path. The leading scorer on No. 13-ranked Adelphi Panthers basketball is content being the best Jessica Kitrys she can be.
"I never really had a favorite athlete growing up," said the senior from Parlin, NJ. "I just have a favorite team," she added. That team-first mentality has enabled her to lead the Adelphi Panthers to a 12-1 start to the season which garnered national recognition in the latest coaches poll. They peaked at No. 13 with only one team in the NE-10 ranked higher, and that is Bentley University which also began 12-0.

"Lancia Stratos." Say the words, and anyone with an enthusiast bone in their body will proceed to go googly-eyed and giddy at the hearing. The cars were built during the golden age of the World Rally Championship to do precisely one thing: win. In order to do that, Lancia had to build a handful of "street" cars to meet homologation rules at the time. Automotive history would never quite be the same.
Petrolicious recently spent some time with Phillip Toledano and his beautiful blue Stratos to find out what it's like to own a car expressly designed to kill you. Toledano uses phrases like "weapons grade," "invasive surgery," and "barking mad." We wouldn't expect anything less. As usual, the video is drop dead gorgeous, and watching the car bolt through the New York countryside is the stuff of day dreams. Duck below, press play and take a deep breath.

Acute Cerebellar Ataxia
(Cerebellitis)En Español (Spanish Version)
Acute cerebellar ataxia is a disorder of the nervous system marked by the sudden onset of a disturbance in muscle coordination, especially in the trunk, arms, and legs.
The cerebellum is the part of the brain that controls balance and coordination. It does not function properly in the case of cerebellar ataxia. Although the abnormality of the limbs is most often noticed, it can also cause abnormal eye movements. Nausea and vomiting may also occur as part of the disorder.
While it can occur at any age, acute cerebellar ataxia is most common in young children. It can occur several weeks after a viral infection, such as chickenpox . Most cases go away without treatment in a matter of months. However, recurrent or chronic progressive cerebellar ataxia does occur.
If you suspect you or your child has this condition, contact your doctor immediately.
Cerebellum (Darker Pink Section)
© 2008 Nucleus Medical Art, Inc.
Causes of acute cerebellar ataxia include:
Viral infections, including:
- Chickenpox
- Coxsackie disease
- Epstein-Barr virus
- Mycoplasma pneumonia
- HIV infection
- Exposure to older insecticides called organophosphates
- Exposure to certain toxins, such as lead , mercury , thallium, and alcohol
- Cerebellar hemorrhage, abscess, blood clot, or obstruction of an artery
Causes of recurrent or chronic acute ataxia include:
- Stroke
- Malformation of the cerebellum
- Multiple sclerosis
- Migraine or vertigo
- Genetic or metabolic disorders
- Brain tumor
- Alcoholism
- Seizures
Plaque Build-up From Multiple Sclerosis

Risk Factors
A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition. The following factors increase your chance of developing acute cerebellar ataxia:
- Childhood, especially three years of age or younger
- Viral infections
- Exposure to certain insecticides, drugs, or toxins
If you experience any of the following symptoms, do not assume it is due to acute cerebellar ataxia. These symptoms may be caused by other health conditions, as well. If you experience any one of them, see your physician.
- Uncoordinated movements of the limbs or trunk
- Clumsiness with daily activities
- Difficulty walking (unsteadiness)
- Speech disturbances with slurred speech and changes in tone, pitch, and volume
- Visual complaints
Accompanying symptoms may include:
- Headache
- Dizziness
- Changes in mental state (such as personality or behavioral changes)
- Chaotic eye movements
- Clumsy speech pattern
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms, medical and family history, and perform a physical exam. He or she will observe your limb coordination to assess the degree and nature of the ataxia.
Further tests may include the following:
- Examination of cerebrospinal fluid
- MRI or CT scan—x-rays that use magnetic waves or computers to make pictures of structures inside the head
- Metabolic blood tests
- Ultrasound—a test that uses sound waves to examine the head
- Urine analysis
There is no treatment for acute cerebellar ataxia. Ataxia usually goes away without any treatment. In cases where an underlying cause is identified, your doctor will treat the underlying cause.
In extremely rare cases, you may have continuing and disabling symptoms. Treatment includes corticosteroids, intravenous immune globulin , or plasma exchange therapy.
Drug treatment to improve muscle coordination has a low success rate. However, the following drugs may be prescribed: clonazepam, amantadine, gabapentin, or buspirone. Occupational or physical therapy may also alleviate lack of coordination. Changes to diet and nutritional supplements may also help.

Jo Jo Potatoes?
- e_bone Jul 1, 2013 03:28 PM
So Holy Mary Mother of Junk Food Yumminess. Are these things an MSP invention? I see them referenced in other parts of the country so I'm guessing not. However, prior to my outing to the 5-8 Club, I had never had or heard of them before. The Juicy Lucy investigation was good but the Potatoes at 5-8 Club were life-altering! Crispy and crusty on the outside, strongly seasoned, steamy light pillows inside.
I'd love to know what type of fat they fry in.. do they batter these things and if so.. with what??
Hmm. Hickory Hut in St. Paul offers Jo Jo potatoes as one of their sides, and they are not battered or even all that crusty unless you get an end piece. They most closely resemble sliced unpeeled potatoes, probably parcooked and then quickly fried, with a very (un?)healthy dose of seasoned salt.
I like them a lot, but even with the same name, they don't sound like the same potatoes 5-8 is calling Jo Jos.
re: steve_in_stpaul
John Hardy's in Rochester is my go to place for the sliced potato style jojo. Throw some of the spicy sauce on those and you've got a meal right there.
Ted Cook's also has Jo Jo fries. They are similar to what Steve describes. The version e_bone describes might be what Wikipedia mentions here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jojos
re: ChancesR
Did Ted Cook change their potatoes? The used to be sliced but they called them Jo Jo potatoes.
I haven't had them at 5-8, but your description reminds me of the jojo's I've had at places with "Broaster Chicken" (which is great by the way. For locations or info about what the heck "broasted" means: http://www.broaster.com/). Thick, crusty, highly seasoned, dangerously hot, pillowy wedges of potatoes. I don't think those are battered. They happen by way of pressure-frying, which unfortunately, is probably not a good thing to experiment with at home . . .
I don't know if this place is any good, but there are a couple in the bottom-right of the picture for comparison:
Anyone else have better info, intel or ideas?
re: thefunkytrout
you are dead on I think Trout. Pressure frying scares the heck out of me so I think it's something I'll go out for.. not try at home :-)
The crust is salivation-making
jojo seems to have two (at least) different meanings. some mean potato wedges and others (like ted cooks) mean deep fried potato slices.
ted cooks jojo's covered with bbq sauce are great.
often potato wedges are roasted rather than fried. so maybe jojo's for some mean fried potato wedges.
Greasy food....my specialty.
Jo-Jos certainly are not a Minnesota-inspired phenomenon. In fact, after a quick web search it seems that there is no agreement where they originated - either Ohio or Oregon but I saw more references to the Midwest.
In any case, jo-jos are just potato wedges that were typically fried in the same vat and with the same materials as fried chicken at a lot of joints. They are usually discernible due to a breaded topping, but as we all know, the beauty of cooking is messing with the recipe. I tend to stick with the notion that jo-jos are breaded and potato wedges are not, but there is no rule and no food police to enforce it.
All we can do is enjoy them. Thanks for the 5-8 report. I'll have to check out their version
Q Fanatic does a version that are mighty fine. I think they are red potatoes, though, because the wedge is much smaller. Get 'em spicy with some of their dipping sauce...good stuff.

CPU Frequency Drops > Issue with amdppm.sys
Good Day,
I hope someone can assist me.
I have been having a problem whilst gaming (although this also runs over onto net use when playing flash games ie. pokemon global link), I've noticed that my pc/game would stutter immensely for a while and then would run fine again.
I've found that in resource manager when this happens that my frequency rate drops from 100% to 25% and then after a time goes back to a 100% (stuttering then stops)
At first I thought it was with NT Kernal & System and through that and following a guide on how to locate the problem, I've established that it is the driver amdppm.sys
I'm not a terribly technical person, so thanks to all the tutorial makers out there.
I've then tried replacing the amdppm.sys with a different version of the same file, the stuttering stops, however after a period of time, my laptop would shut itself down completely.... so I replaced the previous file that I had thankfully made a copy of.
As helpful as google, this site and various others have been. I've yet to find a way to rectify the problem... without causing anymore and as I've said, I'm not terribly technical and fear that I might worsen the problem more before ever being able to fix it.
Please if anyone knows of a way to fix this, it would be greatly appreciated.

It is normal for a mobile processor, in say a laptop, to reduce its clock frequency during inactivity. It will do this to save power, reduce heat, prolong battery life etc. There is no need for the processor to be running full tilt if it isn't doing much of anything. when needed it will go back to full speed. If you are running on battery when this happens try plugging in the power pack/charger and see if the problem goes away. Why its down clocking when you are actually using it I don't know? I don't have a laptop of my own at the moment.

Last night we did a couple of tries on the normal LK, in the best try we had him at 10,6% (so quite close)
The problem is I am not satisfied with the performance of :
link the demo lock: i was surprised he only used basically 3 spells: shadowbolt emulate and curse of the elements.
Here the Hpriest: link he was only at 2,3k hps, so I think that was a little low.
The demolock was on spheres duty so I understand that sometimes his damage went down, but still overall it was quite low.
So I was wondering what could be done to help them to improve their performance:
Here the armory links:
Demolock: link
Hpriest: link
P.s.: only 3 attemps on the logs due to computer trouble.
Thanks in advance
