Instituto Mexicano del Sonido (IMS) is a one-man type of project, with lots of after-hour editions and additions at a home computer. During the day, Camilo Lara is the well-known industry man and savvy record label guy who works for major companies in Mexico City. By night, he finds magic in a huge record collection and dreams of creating the perfect background party music. As a result, an IMS album is an experimental journey to an imaginary Mexico where cumbia and cha-cha blend with down- and up-tempo beats and broken-hearted radio-soap-style quotes like this one: "That day he woke up to the news that his wife had left him/The intention of going after her didn't even cross his mind/He let her go without asking nothing at all, neither with whom, nor to where." That song is humorously called "Lovesong to My Future Girlfriend." It is, perhaps, a synthesis of the obsessive work of cutting and pasting that took Lara's nightlife away for the past few years, though he sounds like he had some fun too.

With a passion for boating the waters of Lake Minnetoka to take in views of the region's natural beauty and lush green landscapes, Wayzata Bay Charters' owners charter their 60-foot lake cruiser to make the experience accessible to all. The owners decked out their two-level cruiser—which can host up to 60 people—with a full bar, two satellite TVs, satellite radio, a 2,000-watt sound system, and enough helium balloons to keep both the boat and the party afloat. Believing a jaunt on the lake makes for an ideal event whatever the occasion, they've designed packages specifically for weddings and bachelorette parties, and they still offer public cruises to assure everyone has a chance to take to the water.
Every time Tiny Footprint Coffee uses a little bit of earth's resources, it also puts a little bit back. Since roasting coffee produces CO2, the staff have taken it upon themselves to donate a portion of the proceeds from every pound of coffee they sell to reforestation efforts in Ecuador. In this sense, they've established their business as a "carbon negative" one?the carbon they produce is eliminated by the trees that are eventually planted. And that's not even getting to the coffee itself. Workers dote on the artisanal beans every step of the way, from the family-owned farms where the coffee cherries are picked to the carefully trained baristas who eventually transform the roasted beans into the perfect cup.
A nonprofit Christian fundraising group for youth ministries in the Twin Cities, Fishing for Life hosts the Fish Fair each year to net assets for its cause while attendees snack on fried fish. Budding freshwater huntsmen can learn the fine points of lure making or fly tying and others can try their hands at archery or laser shooting. As young whippersnappers ricochet around the bounce houses and dance to live music, their mellower companions can listen to a tall tale at story time or create a brush-by-brush replica of Mona Lisa Eats a Burrito at the arts-and-crafts table. Boy Scouts in attendance can earn a fishing merit badge with their participation, as each amateur ichthyologist can attempt to catch his or her own dinner at the trout pond.

Successful restaurateur Supenn Harrison made her first foray into the restaurant business more than 30 years ago, when she bought a burger joint in the Twin Cities. For Supenn, slinging patties wasn't enough to satisfy her love of the culinary arts; the Thailand native and former teacher quickly traded deep fryers for woks and opened her first Thai restaurant.
She eventually launched the first Sawatdee in 1983 in an abandoned warehouse, transforming the unlikely setting into something you might see in the heart of Bangkok, with gold-leaf ceilings and traditional artwork. Now, Supenn owns seven Sawatdee restaurants throughout Minnesota and has expanded the menu to include sushi dishes. Besides sharing her culinary skills through hands-on cooking classes, Supenn has disseminated her authentic Thai fare by catering birthday celebrations, family reunions, and the Rolling Stones' anti-retirement party.
Though they've only been leading paddling tours for a few years, the certified guides of Stand Up MN have already helped thousands of people explore the Twin Cities' local waterways up close. After equipping their guests with standup paddleboards, personal flotation devices, and ample training, they embark on trips along the quiet stretch of the Mississippi River that cuts through their urban landscape.
From St. Paul, groups glide under bridges and pass idyllic natural areas—and from Minneapolis, they can take a break from paddling to high-five low-flying birds from a rope swing over the water. Stand Up MN also leads extended paddling tours to Taylors Falls, where state parks and tumbling waterfalls abound. These excursions are complemented by the company's special events, which include speed-dating events at which participants spend most of the time hanging out while paddleboarding.

What Is a Skin Tag?
Skin tags are a common problem for many of us. They are a number of causes for skin tag formation but they are primarily caused by the continuous rubbing of skin which gets irritated by friction. Skin tags generally look like a small piece of hanging skin. Skin tags are often described as a part of skin or flesh-colored tissue that projects from the surrounding skin. Although skin tags may vary in appearance and their shape and size, they are generally smooth or slightly wrinkled and irregular, flesh-colored or slightly more brown and hang from the skin by a small stalk. New skin tags may be as small as a flattened pinpoint-sized bump around the neck but with passing time it can get bigger in size.
Who Are Susceptible To Skin Tags?
Almost any one can get skin tags from children to old age persons. However it is usually uncommon in children but more prominent in older persons. According to research, at some point in time almost half of the population has skin tags. Although skin tags are generally acquired (not present at birth) and may occur in anyone, but they are most common in adults and becomes prominent with increasing age as skin gets older. Skin tags are also more prominent in overweight people.
Clinical Method To Remove Skin Tags:
Clinical methods for removing skin tags include surgical methods of removal involving excision by a scalpel or scissor, Laser removal, Electro surgery, Cryotherapy etc, but all these methods to remove skin tags are evasive ways that means they require physical damage to be done to skin tags, it requires surgical tools and it can be painful to perform.
Certainly these clinical methods can offer relief to your skin tag problem but they are temporary solutions, they are not effective in preventing its recurrence in the future. In other words these treatments may not bring permanent and lasting results. These treatment methods are also not cheap as well.
These are some of the reasons why people are now exploring some other ways to remove skin tags by natural ways to prevent side effects and to get a permanent solution for their skin tags problem.
Natural Method To Remove Skin Tags:
All new DermaTend® is a revolutionary product. Now forget about skin tags, they are no tough job with DermaTend®.

Nasal Antibiotic Ointment Reduces Infection Risk after Surgery
In what may be the largest clinical trial to evaluate the effectiveness of antimicrobial agents in preventing surgical wound and hospital-based infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus, scientists at the University of Iowa and Johns Hopkins found that an antibiotic ointment, called mupirocin (moo-PIE-roe-sin), smeared inside the nose cut infection rates in half or better.
"Our results carry tremendous implications for reducing S. aureus surgical wound and other hospital-based infections, and for preventing illness and saving lives," says Trish Perl, M.D., associate professor of medicine, director of Hospital Epidemiology and Infection Control at Hopkins and an author of the study published in the June 13 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
Staphylococcus aureus is a widely distributed germ that normally resides in the nostrils of an estimated 25 to 30 percent of all hospitalized patients without causing harm. But it can contaminate surgical sites, causing severe and often deadly infections, especially in people with weakened immune systems, and contributing millions of dollars yearly to the costs of health care.
In the study, called MARS (for Mupirocin and the Risk of Staphyloccus aureus Infections), the researchers determined the rate of S. aureus surgical wound infections and other hospital-based infections in 4,030 adult patients who underwent various elective surgical procedures at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics and the Veteran's Affairs Medical Center in Iowa City. Mupirocin antibiotic ointment, or a placebo, was applied to the inside of the nostrils twice daily for up to five days before surgery. Patients were followed for 30 days after surgery to determine if they acquired S. aureus infections.
While mupirocin ointment, made by GlaxoSmithKline, is highly effective at reducing the rate of S. aureus infections in patients undergoing surgery, as with any antibiotic, there is the risk of widespread resistance.
"This is a terrific drug, but the downside is that resistance does develop with overuse," says Perl. "You don't want to bathe the hospital in mupirocin. It is incumbent upon us as clinicians to use this drug in high risk patients when studies support its use."
Perl and colleagues looked at both non-resistant and resistant strains of S. aureus and found that a short, carefully planed mupirocin treatment like that used in the study does not appear to contribute to antibiotic resistance. Perl cautions that mupirocin use should be selective.
Other authors of the study are Joseph Cullen, M.D., Richard Wenzel, M.D., M.Sc., M. Bridget Zimmerman, Ph.D., Michael Pfaller, M.D., Deborah Sheppard, Jennifer Twombley, R.N., Pamela French, M.D., M.P.H., and Loreen Herwaldt, M.D. The study was funded by a research grant from GlaxoSmithKline.

But hey, why stop there; '…The sounds are melodic yet raw, and very, very soul-oriented, with a lean and muscular edge to the playing and singing alike — overall, the music is reminiscent of The Band in its prime years, only smoother when they need to be, with some interesting touches, such as their brilliant covers of the Beatles' 'Let It Be' and Ray Charles' 'Yes Indeed'.' Yes folks, it really is that good.
For those only familiar with The Cate Brothers' big 1975 hit 'Union Man', this welcome reissue of the long unavailable 'Arkansas Soul Siblings' collection - now lovingly repackaged – will be akin to visiting a long lost friend.

My Plus-Size Target Picks Under $20
Posted by Katie Frost at 6:00 AM
12 comments:
- Katie Frost said...
I noticed that my Target had no plus sized clothes recently. I thought it was just my crummy store. I'm right at the border but lately the "straight size" clothes have been cut too narrow in the shoulders for me. This is sad. :(
- March 6, 2014 at 6:59 AM
- Katie Frost said...
Mine has signs up saying a new Plus Size section is coming. I hope it's decent stuff rather than the flowy teen stuff they had before.
- March 6, 2014 at 7:32 AM
- Katie Frost said...
What makes me mad about the lackluster selection in the stores is when they revamp the other sizes, the entire section does NOT disappear. Ridiculous. Online shopping is great but trying things on in the store is nice.
- March 6, 2014 at 7:55 AM
- Katie Frost said...
I'm happy to hear that they're going to do something about it. At our local store, the "Plus Section" is limited to 1 rack of shirts, 1 rack of pants and skirts and maybe - if you're lucky - a table of sweaters. It's awful.
- March 6, 2014 at 9:20 AM
- Katie Frost said...
Our target has a sign talking about the revamp. I'll have to go tonight and take a picture.
- March 6, 2014 at 10:33 AM
- Katie Frost said...
*clap clap clap* I love the posts you do when you lean into your niche. ;) I get quite a few requests for plus-sized content, and I always point them to you!
Great pieces!
- March 6, 2014 at 10:55 AM
- Katie Frost said...
I like the green dress and the blazers!
- March 6, 2014 at 10:59 AM
- Katie Frost said...
i love that faux leather embellished skirt...i could see that looking sexy on you!!
- March 6, 2014 at 3:08 PM
- Katie Frost said...
Target has always had a terrible plus sized selection. I'm not too optimistic about their upcoming "revamped" section. It will probably be overpriced, too. Thanks for always showing lots of options!
- March 6, 2014 at 8:44 PM
- Katie Frost said...
Sadly, my Target also has gone to one rack of clothing. I did the sign earlier this year about the revamped clothing coming. I'm hoping they stop putting the plus-size next to the maternity. That drives me crazy!
- March 7, 2014 at 6:16 AM
- Katie Frost said...
I have bought a few things in Target stores I've really loved, and that I paid $3 for...and some cute $10 things online. The great thing about Target is that they give you zero crap about returning online purchases...and there's always SOME reason to go there.

Pt. Reyes in mid-October
- steve h. Sep 8, 2010 03:54 PM
October 19 is my wife's birthday. I've rented Walt's Cottage on Tomales Bay for four nights. I used to know this area pretty well but that was a few years ago (just before Manka's Lodge burned down).
We'll have a car so reservations at Ad Hoc seemed reasonable. French Laundry reservations weren't available through Opentable. I would appreciate thoughts/comments on places to eat and wineries to visit.
Thanks in advance.

Ad Hoc

Pt. Reyes is a great place for eating. I'll second Pinecone Diner. Station House Cafe is very good. You'll be very near Hog Island Oyster. Bovine Bakery has good breads, pizza slices, and baked goods (a favorite for bicyclists). You can make your own picnic from the Tomales Bay Foods and Cowgirl Creamery. The Palace Market makes big sandwiches to go. Osteria Stellina is great.

ditto re Stellina. And last time we were there, BJ Novak sat at the next table. Although I imagine it is very gauche of me to mention that...
re: steve h.
A piece of Red Hawk from Cowgirl, some bread from Bovine,a few local tomatoes, a bottle of
good wine on Limantour beach. It doesn't get much better.
re: hilrock
Totally agree.
Deb and I used to be sailors. Life at 5 knots is very cool. Pt. Reyes gives us that "life at 5 knots" stuff without the hard work. You folk who live out there are mighty fortunate. we're envious.
Yountville to Pt Reyes in the evening (after a meal at Ad Hoc) can be tedious. You might consider staying in the Pt Reyes area.

re: OldTimer
I like driving. It was fun driving from SFO to Monterey/Pebble Beach for the Concours last month. Driving up Rt. 7 in Connecticut to Lime Rock Park for the Fall Vintage Festival last week was a hoot, too.
We'll be staying in the Pt. Reyes area for four days. Any winery recommendations? Mid-October should be prime tourist time.
re: steve h.
West Marin is a tough growing area for grapes, there are really only one or two wineries. I think McEvoy olive oil is produced in one of the passes between Pt Reyes and Petaluma--you might see if they have tastings--it's some of the best olive oil produced in California, though the price reflects that :(
Better bet to go inland and north--Russian River valley for Pinot, or Carneros. If you're willing to go further, Dry Creek Valley and Anderson Valley are favorites too. You can search the board by these region names once you see them on a map and evaluate your appetite for driving. I could envision your Hog Island oysters day starting with a stop for bread and other groceries in the gourmet food court at Cowgirl in Pt Reyes Station, driving north on 1 to hog island where you'll load your cooler with a few dozen oysters, then continue up 1 and inland to Sebastopol to Merry Edwards winery. Call ahead and ask if you could picnic there before you wine taste. It's a pretty 1 hour drive, not including stops to assemble your picnic, so easy to get done in time for lunch and wine tasting in the afternoon in the area around Merry Edwards.
There's a good hardware and housewares store right in Pt Reyes Station where you can buy a cheap cooler and any picnic supplies you're missing, such as cork screws.
re: SteveG
I'm not averse to driving (especially over the mountains) for good food and wine. I actually like it a lot.
Thanks for the insight.
I still have my corkscrew from Palace Market (mailed it home years ago) and my copy of Point Reyes Visions.
Pt. Reyes is mighty special.
Palace Market

re: steve h.
Sure, but I bet you weren't sleeping in SFO and driving to and from Pebble every day. Driving back to Point Reyes after dinner in Yountville sounds grim to me, and I'm a very high mileage driver. For wine touring, driving back and forth from San Francisco would be faster than from Point Reyes. Since you're out here quite often, give some thought to what makes sense timewise from your unique lodgings vs. what can be saved for another visit. It would be a shame to not take advantage of what's nearby in West Marin and the Sonoma Coast once you've made the trek to those parts. Take the road less traveled on the byways west of Hwy 101 . . . it's a world apart.
I'd love to hear from anyone who has visited the new-ish wineries that are springing up in the Petaluma Gap area, such as Keller Estate Winery I keep meaning to tour, but haven't gotten around to it since they're far from my base. Here's a link to the association's website, http://www.petalumagap.com/
If you're still intent on driving a distance, make an appointment with Flowers Vineyard & Winery in Cazadero. http://www.flowerswinery.com/ This is a vineyard that I've been meaning to visit for 10+ years now, but because it's remote, I haven't made it yet. That would be a beautiful drive up Hwy 1 and then up the mountain, about 60 miles from Pt. Reyes. There's a sweet little bakery in town called Raymond's. Here's a recent thread that mentions Raymond's Bakery and wineries in the Sonoma Coast, http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/690974
Here's my post on the 1989 Cabernet Sauvignon from Point Reyes winery. I understand that nothing from that producer has come close to it since, unfortunately.
Note that Anderson Valley that SteveG recommends below is about 4 hrs each way from Point Reyes. Yes, a lovely spot, but hardly a day trip from where you're staying. You'll find more info about Anderson Valley and Mendocino County on the California board, as it's considered outside the SF Bay Area.

re: Melanie Wong
Thanks, Melanie.
re: Melanie Wong
I second what you say about driving after dinner. It just isn't that interesting in the dark, and it is a long and involved drive from Yountville to Pt Reyes Station.
I had a pretty great meal at Farmhouse Inn in west Sonoma County, probably just under an hour from Pt Reyes Station. It was particularly memorable because the sommelier was able to recommend a low alcohol high acid Riesling to go with our meal, after we complained of zinfandel-induced palate fatigue from wine tasting all day. The excellent foie gras, pork medalions, and fantastically fresh soft-shell crab helped too! Logistically, it fits well with a day of wine tasting, as you would nearly pass it to get back home to Pt Reyes Station.
I've eaten at all of Thomas Keller's California restaurants, and while I think The French Laundry probably lives up to its reputation, I don't think Ad Hoc is worth a trip, or even a visit if I'm within a few miles. Bouchon is similar for me--even dining there with a master sommelier who knew the menu and several staff members, we couldn't scrape together a consistently good meal. Both fine restaurants, but you can have better meals in Sonoma county. For that matter, Cyrus is right up there with the French Laundry, easier to get into, and 1.5 hours away.

re: SteveG
Thanks, Steve.
I'm a fan of per se. I'll give ad hoc a shot. I'll report back, warts and all.
Farmhouse sounds interesting.
re: Melanie Wong
Keller does a good job. Their 04 La Cruz Syrah is excellent.
Re local wines, there are only a few Marin tasting rooms, though a fair amount of stunning wine being produced.
Keller Estate has a tasting room (near Petaluma) open Thurs-Sundays. There are two other tasting rooms I know of (Pt. Reyes Vineyard and Ross Valley Winery) though no one I know has been there are their wines are not on my radar so I can't comment as to quality.
However, I can say that there are many excellent wines from west Marin and many local restaurants supporting them. Look for Marin County bottlings from Pey-Marin (they have a relationship with the Olema Inn so that you can taste them in flights, look for their 07 Riesling in particular), Sean Thackrey, Peay Vineyards, Kendric Vineyards and Dutton-Goldfield (they make a super Pinot from Marin's Devil's Gulch Ranch).
Farther north and west, the world is your oyster when it comes to wine. Lots on the boards about Sonoma and Napa options obviously....Feel free to ask if you have specific questions, I'm happy to comment on what I know....
Have fun!
Olema Inn

re: steve h.
and a car gut too, maybe you should come to our house for dinner! I was in monterey also. But seriously, hit Pine Cone and make sure you get the Red Hawk cheese with a baguette from Brick maiden bakery, outstanding. If you wanna drive up the coast a bit and will be there on a friday night, hit the Occidental Farmers market and get in line for Gerard's paella (even if he is our competition in the paella world).
Pine Cone
162 N Main St, Sebastopol, CA 95472
re: Ptowner
and being a car guy i forgot one place. If you are in Petaluma, make a trip to Keller winery on Lakeville hwy. Arturo Keller has what is believed to be the largest collection on Mercedes in the US. But the best part is the sculpture of Juan Fangio driving a 196 (?) mercedes on the patio of the tasting room.
re: Ptowner
How are Keller's wines?
Keller Estate Winery
5875 Lakeville Hwy, Petaluma, CA
re: Melanie Wong
Keller's wines are very good, as you'd hope when your paying $40-50 a bottle. It's worth a visit, they have done a nice job there. Very spread out in the rolling hills.
re: Ptowner
Thanks, Ptowner.
Always looking to expand the horizons.
Already made hotel reservations for next year's concours. I suspect we'll be spending serious time at Laguna Seca.
re: vulber
A lot of folk on this thread agree with you. I've never been. What are the highlights?
re: steve h.
as it's so seasonal, it could be hard to recommend a specific dish, but i believe the oyster pizza is on the menu year-round, and perhaps the braised octopus.
desserts are also fantastic.
in general, some of the best meats and produce come from the pt. reyes area, yet osteria stellina is really the first restaurant in the area to truly take advantage of it
re: vulber
Thanks, vulber.
You/others have pushed Stellina to the top of the stack. Octopus is a huge family favorite.
I would suggest a visit to the Marin French Cheese Company, primarily because it is said to be the oldest continously operating (since 1852) cheese factory in the U.S. It is roughly halfway between Pt. Reyes Station and Petaluma. I really like their Schloss cheese.
re: Tripeler
Yes, I like the Schloss cheese very much as well. The nice thing about going to the company store is that sometimes batches with different maturities are available, so you can dial in on the age your prefer. And a couple times I've been there, something's been marked down because it's getting very ripe . . . just the way I like 'em.

re: Tripeler
re: Tripeler
My favorite part of the Marin French Cheese Company tour was finally learning the difference between their "Brie" and their "Camembert": the box.
Marin French Cheese
7500 Red Hill Rd, Petaluma, CA 94952
re: Robert Lauriston
The historic aspect of MFCC is the most notable, after their Schloss cheese. Also, I believe all their cheeses are made with pasteurized milk...
re: Tripeler
Last time I went there it was a weekend. I suggest you avoid weekends.
re: Tripeler
Just had a brie with a date of Oct 3 which according to their chart is peak ripening. It was very well received at my work cheese tasting.
For a local winery around Pt. Reyes, check out the Pt. Reyes Vineyards. They have a little tasting room up on the hill just outside of town.
Marin Sun Farms is serving food at their store in Pt. Reyes Station now. I haven't eaten there but have heard some good things and their meat is top notch. They turned the front of the store into a sit down cafe.
Old Timer, Melanie:
Thanks for your insight. A man who asks bright people for advice and doesn't take it is maybe not so bright.
There will be a change of plans.
re: c oliver
Google is your friend for questions like that. More important than "how far" would be "how many minutes" over the winding roads and mountain passes, if you care to check for driving times when you research your question.
re: Melanie Wong
Hi Melanie,
The twisties are the best part.
Dark, however, can be an issue. I may move my reservation to lunch. We'll see.
re: steve h.
No argument from me and my quattro. But unfortunately, my after-dinner drive experience back to home base is more often than not marred by the frightened, not quite sober, tourists plugging along after dark at 20 mph, white-knuckled and scared out of their minds by the curvy roads, slick roadway, and/or fog on unfamiliar routes. While you might not be that frightened driver, you will be stuck behind one and should factor that into your post-dinner plans.
re: Melanie Wong
I'm not that frightened driver.
re: Melanie Wong
Mea culpa. I was being lazy. Hour and a half. Definitely too far for a dinner but,steve, if your interested in lunch, I can recommend a couple of spots.
re: c oliver
Hi, c.
Lunch is good. Fire away.
re: steve h.
Here's my review of La Salette, a Portuguese (and other things) restaurant, on the square in Sonoma:
I've been remiss in not writing up our visit to El Dorado Kitchen (life interfered right after this trip). Here's their link:
It's on the opposite/west side of the square from La Salette and I can't say enough good things about it. Before you even get to the food and wine, the ambiance is just lovely. They have several dining areas plus a lovely terrace. A really nice wine list and knowledgeable servers who also don't mind getting advice from others. I've attached pix of what we had. It was a crazy amount of food for two people but we forced ourselves.
We house exchange with a family who live near the square in Sonoma and we rarely leave the area because we get such good things there.
re: steve h.
Here's more. For divey and very good Mexican, Juanita Juanita
We've only had breakfast at Schellville Grill but if their lunches are half as good....
Also Fremont Diner:
It's breakfast time here in Rio and thinking about these meals has gotten me quite hungry.

re: pcdarnell
I like picnics. The backyard of our tiny rental cottage overlooks wetlands, water and the golden hills where cattle graze across the bay. Deb and I have rented this place before. The difficulty is deciding where to picnic since the options are staggering (don't start me on the horse trails).
I totally agree with Hilrock - we go to Pt. Reyes at least once a year and I think I've eaten my own weight in Cowgirl Creamery cheese there. I've also had a couple of very good meals at The Olema Inn - definitely not on par with the great restaurants of Napa, but much more convenient, and it's a lovely room.
Does anyone know the latest on Manka's? We were married there in 2008 but haven't been back since. The food is so so amazing - it would be a shame if the restaurant didn't reopen...

re: aching
Alas, the Lodge has not yet been rebuilt. Breakfast is still available at the rooms. This is all second-hand. I'll know much more next month.
One more endorsement of Stellina - we had dinner there a few weeks ago and the food is everything everybody says it is. I had a buttermilk blackberry ice cream for dessert that was (I don't use this word lightly) a revelation. Downside? Tables are crowded together, it was very warm inside and our server was oddly distracted and abrupt until I started asking her about the ice cream which she adored. Dress ranged from casual (we were in our hiking jeans) to fancy. They also do weekend brunch.
Drive a few miles north to the tiny town of Marshall and stop at The Marshall Store for the best grilled oysters anywhere. Fresh out of Tomales Bay, opened to order and put on the grill for a few minutes with just a drop of garlic butter and q sauce. Really, the best I have ever had (way better and cheaper than Nick's Cove.) Their little deck sits right on Tomales Bay. Enjoy.

Northern California is pretty special.
Deb and I touched down at SFO very early last Tuesday, rented an econo-box and headed north up 101 to Pt. Reyes Station. Once there, we pulled into a space near Pine Cone Diner and slowly exhaled, clearing both lungs and minds of the strip-zone travesty that makes up part of the Sir Francis Drake Highway. Enough said.
I'm pleased to report that the cheeseburgers at Pine Cone are still outstanding. The skin-on fries and the house-made potato salad are decent sides. OK wines/decent beers are a given in this tiny, unassuming joint. Cash only. Pine Cone is ground zero for comfort food. We were staying at a small cottage in Inverness so we provisioned at nearby Palace Market (Lagunitas beers and plenty of wine). Cowgirls (Cowgirl Creamery) are off on Tuesday. Bummer. Dinner was a few snacks, some beer and wine and looking out our backyard to Tomales Bay and the mountains on the far shore. We had a fire going on. Sweet.
Wednesday was sunny, almost Alpine in its beauty. Driving over the mountains to Yountville was a privilege. Lunch at Bouchon was my reward: lobster bisque to start and sweetbreads to finish. The bisque was both rich and creamy yet light on the tongue. Very impressive. The sweetbreads were over the top: seared crisp on the outside yet creamy in the center. The accompanying risotto was luxurious, the pearl onions well able to stand shoulder-high with the rest of the plate, the baby carrots actually had flavor. I liked this dish. Be advised that I've never encountered an entree-sized portion of sweetbreads before. It was an adult portion. Wines at Bouchon are quite good, espresso, too. Lots of global tourists pile in here. I think that's kind of cool.
Nick's Cove gets a lot of knocks on this board. I pulled in on a wet afternoon wearing a foul-weather jacket, cap and boat shoes. We were warmly greeted at the door and asked if we wanted to sit in the dining room (kind of formal) or the enclosed porch area where, as it turned out, boat folk hang out. It was a no-brainer for us yet it showed the Jekyll and Hyde nature of this shop. BBQ oysters and a vodka gimlet were pretty good. The Dungeness crab cake had no filler and was delicately (pan?) fried. The fried oysters (panko coated?) were noteworthy. Service was very good. Nick's, in my opinion, is an out-sized fish shack and should be treated as such. We will return.
One of life's great pleasures is asking smart people for advice and then listening to them. Yes, I cancelled my evening Ad Hoc reservation and made other plans. Those plans included a private tour at Keller Estate Winery. Deb called, got the reservation and I got to drive over the mountains again (cool). Keller winery concentrates on pinot noir. Their high-end offerings are very good. The architecture on the estate is superb. I urge wine buffs and architecture buffs to visit this extraordinary estate. A private tour is, well, pretty special. I recommend the 2006 precioso.
Before there was wine, there was beer. Lagunitas Brewery (in Petaluma, of course) makes beer. I don't know what it is about brewers and distillers. Seems they are the dark side when compared to wine makers. Whatever, the brewers at Lagunitas are all pirates and miscreants. Deb and I ran into Sammy Hagar there. Lagunitas has one fine brewery tour.
Stellina is a restaurant in Pt. Reyes Station. They have good pastas, a killer slow-cooked octopus and decent pizzas. Stellina has had a lot of press lately. It's a very decent shop for Pt. Reyes Station, nothing more. Go there if you hang out in the 'hood. I like it.
Marin French Cheese Company was a bit of a let down. The tour consisted of a young woman whose language skills were even less than her cheese-making skills explaining that cheese was made from milk and an enzyme. We left after ten minutes.
I reluctantly left our little cottage in Inverness Saturday morning. We dropped off the car at our usual San Francisco hotel around 10 a.m. and browsed the ferry plaza market. Dim Sum at Yank Sing (Rincon Center) at 11 a.m.. We like the soup dumplings there and a whole bunch more. We've been many times and insist on stretching our meals there to nearly two hours. Time well spent.
Supper, especially after a wonderful lunch, is always difficult to gauge. We chose a return to Barbacco so we could dial-in as much or as little food as we wanted. Prosecco to start because it just seems right. Arancini are good here if that's your thing. I like the lardo bruschette and the duck pate bruschette. The fish crudo is pretty good. The fried Brussels sprouts are very good. So, too deserts. My only cavil is no grappa. What's up with that?
Thank you for all your thoughtful suggestions. I'll do better next time.

re: steve h.
What a fantastic report! Everything you ate I wanted to say "take me, take me." But the lobster bisque, sweetbreads and risotto would have sent me into a heavenly state. We're going to be back in Sonoma at Christmas. We'll have to check out some of these spots. Thanks for taking the time, steve.
re: c oliver
Northern California is pretty special. Keep us posted on your Christmas adventure. I'm hoping by then that i'll learn how to spell "dessert" (every man needs an editor).
Edited to add: The Giants/Phillies game was on the flat-panel screen over the bar near our seats at Barbacco. The place went wild when Wilson struck out Howard to end the game and propel the Giants into the World Series. High-fives all around. Nice.
re: steve h.
Great report. Next time you head out Sir Francis Drake, soothe your frazzled nerves by stopping at Fairfax Scoop. It's a whole reason to drive that road.

Gone Fishin'
Written by Andrew Parsons on November 24, 2012
Much of the early discussion about Offensive Tackles in the 2013 Draft has centered on Texas A&M's fantastic junior duo of Luke Joeckel and Jake Matthews, and all of their acclaim is well deserved. In addition to that pair, Michigan Junior OT Taylor Lewan has also received high praise. Lewan is someone I hyped frequently before the season, but in reviewing play from this year, I no longer believe he is the best OT in Michigan. Now, this isn't so much a knock on Lewan, as it is praise for Central Michigan Senior OT Eric Fisher.
While I'd still place the 6'8 305 pound Senior behind the Texas A&M tackles, I've begun to think that Fisher is worthy of a Top 15 selection, and I think NFL teams will too as they dive into more film of him. Due to the school he plays at, I expect him to see (read more…)

Siding with crackpotsYou'd think that a majority of the U.S. Senate, mostly Republicans, wouldn't side with Iran, Syria and North Korea on anything.But now they are, siding with those countries and their crackpot leaders in opposing an international arms-trafficking treaty agreed to by 153 nations, including the United States.Sixty-seven senators — a two-thirds majority — are required to ratify the treaty, but because these senators are siding with Iran, Syria and North Korea, it won't pass. — Richard LaChance, Fort Worth

The Detroit News reports presidential hopeful Mitt Romney believes he deserves credit for the auto industry's recovery, despite the fact that he adamantly opposes the bailout. While speaking with a Cleveland, Ohio television station, Romney said he deserves "a lot of credit" because he supported the idea of managed bankruptcy. But both President George W. Bush and President Barack Obama believed General Motors and Chrysler couldn't survive the process without backing from the United States Treasury.
Meanwhile, in a 2008 opinion article for The New York Times, Romney warned the bailout would mean the end of the American automotive industry, saying "It won't go overnight, but its demise will be virtually guaranteed."
Through the lens of hindsight, we know that statement was a bit exaggerated. Both Chrysler and GM are on the right path, with the companies posting profits in North America. The Detroit News reports the auto bailout is an important topic in two crucial swing states: Ohio and Michigan.

Not quite sure I understand, all you need to do is link the Policy to an OU.
Yes, and add the groups you do want to have read access.
(note to others: I believe @X-13 is referring to Security Filtering as found on the Scope tab of a GPO)
Though I should say, if all the users you want it to apply to are in a single OU, it's more efficient to just add it there. Only do security filtering when the users/machines are dotted all over the place.

just to double check the gpo is a user GPO and your using a user security filter, in an ou for users?
I rolled out the latest Chrome MSI I downloaded fine with GPO.
I was surprised how well it actually worked! Where did you download it from?
From here: Chrome for Business

Hopefully, I've just set it to delete it via GPO [I <3 GPO] and in a bit, possibly tomorrow, I'm having another crack at getting it installed.
All the settings are applying, but I can't change anything settings wise on my admin account. It's still forced by administrator.

Really cool to see administrators allowing Chrome these days.
Its been a big success in our school since we installed it.
But yeah, Chrome has certainly made my life easier. Thank God someone out there knows what they're doing.
Our users have 100mb file space [no problems so far] and I'm looking at an 80mb userdata folder on my account.
It's supposed to cap at 230mb, but people are talking about it getting into multiple GB.

Congresswoman reintroduces spyware bill
Spyware legislation that would allow fines of up to $3 million for makers of software that steals personal information from a user's computer or highjacks its browser will get a second look after the U.S. Congress failed to pass the legislation in 2004.
On Tuesday, Representative Mary Bono reintroduced an antispyware bill that passed the House of Representatives in 2004, but failed pass in the Senate. The Securely Protect Yourself Against Cyber Trespass Act, or SPY ACT, defines most functions performed by so-called spyware as unfair business practices subject to U.S. Federal Trade Commission fines.

Although we appreciate that this is a convenient way to order it has actually been an area of concern for some time within the practice. Our main concern is with regard to clinical safety and the need to ensure that orders are 100% correct. In addition, there are times during the day when other patients cannot get through because the lines are engaged and the receptionist is busy. The receptionists spend a great deal of time trying to work out which medication the order is for, while other patients are waiting.
In order to provide a clinically safe prescription service and also ensure that all of our patients receive efficient and prompt attention, we feel it is appropriate to ask for all repeat medication orders to be made by other means.

I have a crush on someone I shouldn't have a crush on.
Would you tolerate your friends if they behaved like your cat or dog?
We all love and, well, hate the way our pets behave. Either way, we tolerate it. (Usually.)
But this little video by Fat Awesome helps to put things in perspective.
Would we be as willing to put up with such behaviour if our friends did the same things?
(A warning to cat lovers: cats don't come off looking very good in this video. And to cat haters: not all cats behave like this. My cat behaved more like a dog; the key is giving them lots of attention.)
Cat or dog owners, can you relate?
(Apologies to people who actually do have friends who behave like this. Personally, I'm still waiting for the guinea pig-friend video.)

Best word processing app for kids school work?
Friday 22nd of June 2012
I offered to buy my 9yr old son a laptop, but he was pretty firm he wanted a samsung galaxy 2 tab 10" w/ bluetooth keyboard.....OK. Now, for the essays he's going to have to eventually write in future school years -- is there a solid word processor reasonable for child academics available on the tab? I looked through most of the office suite options and they were either way too simple or too complicated....main requirements being a complete but simple user interface, spell and grammer check, integration w/ google docs/drive, able to use network printer directly, and export to non ms-office formats. I found Kingsoft office which I'm tentatively having my son use. The builtin polaris office suite was not usable due to "hard to figure out how to use properly, minimal integration, and couldn't find spell or grammer check functionality." Anyone already solved this?

KeyCase Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Keyboard Case review
Wednesday 13th of June 2012
Looking to add a bit of functionality and protection to your Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1? Take a peek at KeyCase's Keyboard Case which features a faux leather cover and integrated Bluetooth keyboard. Why bother putting your tablet in a case and carrying around a wireless keyboard when you can have both in one accessory?The silicone keys, which are soft and responsive, are about the same size you'd find on a standard netbook. And, unlike a traditional Bluetooth keyboard, the dedicated Android keys put your most oft-used functions a tap away. You'll find buttons for HOME, LOCK, SEARCH, VOICE, VOLUME, BACK, and more.The keyboard charges via microUSB and promises to hold 100 hours of standby time, however I've not paid that close of attention. I simply charge it up whenever I am charging the tablet and don't think twice. In terms of use, KeyCase indicates up to 90 hours of typing but, again, I don't count how much time I spend in front of the tablet. To save battery juice, the keyboard will automatically turn off after 10 minutes of inactivi

Galaxy Tab 10.1 + Bluetooth keyboard

I've tried 2 bluetooth keyboards with the 10.1 tab. Both of them works. However, the onscreen soft keyboard won't go away when the Bluetooth keyboard is connected. Before, when I use the bluetooth keyboard with the Xoom, it has an option to disable on-screen ketyboard. Does anybody know how can I do that with the Tab 10.1 ? It's annoying to show tot on-screen keybaord occupy half the screen real estate while using an external keyboard.

Saturday 29th of June 2013
Hello,I use a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5113. I also use a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard with it.On some forums (not this one), when I try to type something into a window (field), after the first letter, the screen goes gray, except for the window I typed into. I haven't figured out a way to recover what's on the screen once that happens. So, effectively, I cannot interact with some forums.Does anyone have any thoughts on why this happens? And how to fix it?Bill
