Welcome to NCD Canada!
NCD is a movement of practitioners using an evolving array of tools, resources and processes to apply God's organic growth principles to release the all-by-itself growth-potential in their midst. In other words, it's people being God's people and trying to draw closer to the three persons of the Triune God. There are underlying principles of growth that apply, we can understand them, we can apply them, and we can experience more of God as we do so. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your mind and all your will - and all three with all of your strength. And love one another as you love yourself.
The NCD paradigm and growth principles never change, but the tools and resources to help people, groups and congregations apply the principles are constantly evolving. Scroll down to hear about some of the most recent changes to NCD.

International projects
Vietnam students at Sydney Nursing School | Safe Children Vietnam | Critical care workforce in Timor Leste | Professorial exchange grant with China | Hoc Mai Australia Vietnam scholarship project | International Nursing PhD Collaboration
Vietnam students visit Sydney Nursing School
In September 2013, Sydney Nursing School welcomed the first two students to visit from Vietnam under the Hoc Mai Foundation Pham Thi Ha and Dao Thi Huyen. They gave a presentation to staff on their perceptions of nursing and experiences while in Australia.
The students are enrolled in the Advanced Program in Nursing at Hanoi Medical University and spent four weeks at Sydney attending lectures, tutorials and clinical simulations laboratory sessions. The final two weeks of their visit were on clinical placement at Royal North Shore Hospital.
Ha and Huen spoke of the differences in class sizes between the two cities. With large student numbers in Hanoi, sometimes it is necessary to view classes from outside through glass windows. Only five or so students could work with equipment at a time. In their studies in Hanoi, there were theoretical subjects but not the level of practical components that are available at Sydney Nursing School. They were impressed with the on-hand experiences available to them during their time here, with state-of-the-art equipment in the simulation laboratories, and the opportunity to learn clinical skills at RNSH.
Better welfare for Vietnamese children in adversity
The opportunity to provide health, education and protection for children in need, and to work with nurses and doctors in children's hospitals across Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam to research child injuries has become a reality, thanks to a project led by Associate Professor Jennifer Fraser, from Sydney Nursing School.
The "Safe Children Viet Nam" project has been made possible through the UBS Optimus Foundation which works to break down barriers that prevent children from reaching their potential by funding leading organisations to improve the health, education and protection of children in any countries where children face adversity. The foundation's overall goal is to protect children from abuse of all kinds.
The team travelled to Ho Chi Minh City in August 2013 to pave the way for the start of the 'Safe Children Viet Nam' project. Associate Professor Fraser brings her wealth of experience in leading research programs in maternal and child health, child development and paediatric nursing. Tara Flemington is coordinating this project. This study will be the focus of Tara's PhD, supervised by Jennifer Fraser.
Critical care workforce in Timor Leste
Timor Leste's Ministry of Health, the National Hospital of Guido Valadares and the Institute of Health Sciences in Dili have joined forces with the University of Sydney to improve the capacity of the critical care workforce in Timor Leste.
The University's team includes members from Sydney Nursing School and Sydney Medical School, as well as others from Northern Clinical School, ICU and Royal North Shore Hospital.
We continue to work with the Timorese health system to develop a systematic, practical and team-oriented critical care education program for health professionals, as part of an ongoing, evidence-based, practical and effective way of imparting knowledge and developing skills in the area of critical care nursing.
Professorial exchange grant with China
The International Project Development Fund and Sydney Nursing School have funded a project concerning "Capacity building for international Nursing and Midwifery research collaboration".
The aim of this program is to initiate an exchange visit between staff of Sydney Nursing School and nurses at the Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China. The Office for Global Health at the University of Sydney already has a significant research and teaching relationship with the medical and science faculties of Shanghai Jiao Tong. This program proposes to extend capacity for collaborative health research and professional development by initiating a research and teaching relationship with other members of the health team from Shanghai Jiao Tong, namely the nurses and/or midwives.
Partners: Shanghai Jiao Tong University
Sydney Nursing School staff: Professor Jill White, Associate Professor Donna Waters
Hoc Mai Australia Vietnam scholarship project
Matthew Ah Chow and Stephanie Compton were the first of several nursing students from the University to receive scholarships from the Hoc Mai Australia Vietnam Medical Foundation, which allowed them to undertake a one-month clinical placement in Vietnam.
Stephanie commented on her time in the theatres: "I have realised that whilst the surgery that occurs might be fairly universal, the nurses providing post-operative care do so withour the help of many things we take for granted at home."
Many nursing students are confident that a nursing qualification will give them the chance to make a difference in the world, and scholarships like this create a wonderful opportunity to follow that path.
International Nursing PhD Collaboration (InPhD), Palma de Mallorca
In winter 2009 a number of PhD students and academics from the Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery took part in a summer school hosted by the Nursing PhD Program at the Universitat de les Illes Balears in Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
The International Nursing PhD Collaboration (InPhD) was created in 2004 by academics from the University of Toronto, University of Ballearic Islands (Spain), University of Melbourne, and University of Nuevo Leon (Mexico) to offer nurses the opportunity to be educated on global health and nursing issues from a research perspective. In 2007 the University of Sydney joined the program and Sydney Nursing School's Professor Trudy Rudge has played a major role in the collaboration which she describes as providing "an excellent opportunity for early career researchers to make international links and engage in intensive discussion and debate with their international colleagues".
Our two PhD students were Jasmine Cheung and Christina Aggar. Jasmine undertook research into nurses' experiences of caring for outlier patients in an acute care setting while Christina undertook research into nurses' knowledge and attitudes of palliative care in residential aged care facilities. Associate Professor Maureen Boughton, then Director International Programs, also attended.

(Updates with comment from report in second paragraph.)
Jan. 9 (Bloomberg) -- Vietnam's government may weaken the dong this year as gold buying puts downward pressure on the currency, according to economists who advise the prime minister.
The country may adjust the dong-dollar reference rate by five percent to six percent in 2012, the National Financial Supervisory Commission wrote in a report released in Hanoi today. The currency is allowed to trade up to 1 percent on either side of the fixing. Fluctuations in gold prices can "increase pressure on the exchange rate, widen the trade deficit and negatively affect the overall balance of payments," the researchers, led by Chairman Vu Viet Ngoan, wrote.
The dong declined 7.4 percent last year, the most since 2008, as policy makers devalued the currency by about 7 percent on Feb. 11 to help narrow the gap between the official and black-market rates. The local gold price frequently exceeded the international price during the second half of 2011, resulting in increased demand for dollars as Vietnamese seek to import the precious metal. The dong was unchanged at 21,030 per dollar as of 4:06 p.m. in Hanoi, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
High inflation is also "putting depreciation pressure on the domestic currency," the report said. Consumer prices gained 18.1 percent in December from a year earlier, the fastest pace in Asia, official data show. Devaluing the dong won't significantly boost exports because many finished goods require imported raw materials, according to the report.
Vietnam had a balance-of-payments surplus of $2.5 billion last year, the report said. While that was an improvement on the previous year, this situation is not stable because of a dependence on short-term capital inflows, it said.

Postgame: Men Playing With Boys
Pat Steinberg
January 05 2011 10:56PM
We talked about Wednesday's game between Calgary and Vancouver being a real opportunity for the Flames to be honest with themselves. And after watching a 3-1 win for the Canucks, it's pretty clear how honest the Flames need to be. You can't knock the Flames effort necessarily but this was a Vancouver team toying with their opponent and coasting to a far-too-easy win.

Well, after that 7-2 preseason beating the Flames took to the Vancouver Canucks, Calgary gets set to take on the 'Nucks for the first time this season at Rogers Arena in Van City (8 pm, Sportsnet Flames and The FAN 960). Oh. That was a regular season game...okay then. So it's the second meeting between the teams this season.

January 05 2011 08:25AM
For Flames fans, this season has been terrible for two distinct reasons: one of them is obvious while the other is the fact that the Vancouver Canucks are currently the best team in the Western Conference. If not the league. On top of all that, Ryan Kesler is the main reason for their dominance.

Okay.... I have to give these extensions 3 lippies. On impulse I bought these for a family photo shoot the next day and should have done more research before buying. I also bought two packages of Ken Pave (the Jessica simpson HairDo brand). Immediately upon opening the HairDo, I could tell the EuroNext from Sally Beauty were much better quality. The EN were silkier, thicker, and seemed to tangle less. They have these great clips that are also better than the HD ones I bought. However, they are thin (the HD are even THINNER!) and when researching on the internet it seems had I went with a brand such as Bellami I would have gotten much thicker hair (100ish grams)! $135 for 70 grams of hair with EN? At the time of purchase I didn't know that was a lot to pay for such little hair. So, I'm happy with the quality of the hair but I'm thinking I could have gotten a better deal (thicker hair for only a little more) by shopping around a bit. Hopefully these will last at least 6 months with daily wear and then when it's time to buy new extensions I will try out a new brand! I will not repurchase unless I try out other brands and they don't work as well.

These hair extensions have actually lasted me longer than any other hair exrensions. I have had them about a year and a half and they're still pretty nice but it is time to replace them. They're soft, shiny, and don't have that horrible smell that a lot of other extensions do. The only thing I don't like is that I have to buy two packs, so there's a lot of clipping. But they're still my fave and go to extensions when I buy a different brand and find out it's just another bad extension and waste of money.

I've been using hair extensions as my hair has been growing out for a while. I really want to take the time out and say Euronext has lasted me a long time even with toning them and not exactly being gentle.
I use the lightest blonde shade and recently purchased Bellami's 22 inch ash blonde and 1st of all came in a weird strawberry color and 2nd after deciding to tone them to get to the color I ordered (very gently and carefully) almost all the hair fell out and they turned so stringy they were impossible to wear. A waste of $300.
That being said, through all the vigorous activity I put my Euronext into compared to the supposedly elite Bellami, I will be returning to Euronext. Although they should offer a lighter blonde.

Age: 36-43 Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium Hair: Blond Eyes: Green
I never take the time to write reviews but if I can stop even one person from making the same expensive mistake that I did this review will have served it's purpose.
First of all, I am a professional Stylist and I've been using the Euronext 18" extensions for about 5 years. My first set lasted aboiut 4 years with moderate wear (I take really good care of my extensions) and the second set I bought about a year ago. I have naturally dark brown hair and the extensions matched very, very well. However, I started high lighting my hair about 6 months ago and when my hair became too light for the extensions, I actually high lighted the extensions and they match perfectly. The company does not recommend lightening the extensions as I did and I am a professional, I would NOT recommend trying to highlight your own extensions, this is just my own experience, the extensions turned out beautiful and remain in just as good of condition as they were when I first purchased them.
Ok, so like I said, my hair has been getting blonder and blonder and I had a little extra money burning a hole in my pocket, so I decided to "treat" myself to a new set of blonde extensions, even though my Euronext were still in perfect shape, I wanted to "upgrade" to a better quality brand (or so I thought), so I researched some of the popular (and quite costly) brands and after a week of reading reviews and searching online, I decided to go with a "Halo" extension, which is the "clip-less" one piece with the wire to hold it in place.
I was so excited to get it but when it came I was VERY disappointed! It looked like Barbie hair or a costume wig, smelled like plastic and had a really weird pink hue to it, it didn't even come close to matching my hair! I put it in and it looked terrible! It didn't blend nearly as nicely as my Euronext's do and it felt itchy. Also, it didn't allow for me to wear a high pony tail or bun, it sits low on the back of the head and felt heavy. I played around with it for over an hour then ripped it out and put my Euronext's back in and instantly breathed a sigh of relief! This other hairpiece of crap cost me just under $200, which is a lot more than the Euronext extensions (which I believe run around $120 @ Sally's?).
I will only use Euronext in the future! They blend beautifully (and I have a lot of hair), the color selection is nice and the hair itself looks and feels like your own hair! The price is right,the quality is amazing, they can be curled and styled just llike your own hair and they will last years if you take good care of them!
The ONLY complaint I have is that I wish the clips were plastic like some of the other top brands I researched, these have metal clips, but other than that I LOVE these extensions! No one believes me when I tell them I have them in and I get compliments daily on my hair. You will not be disappointed with these extensions!

Due to chronic kidney failure, I've had to wear extensions since I was 18 (4 years). I've tried a ton of different brands, but I've come back to EuroNext! They blend in well with my natural hair and are easy to style. Yes, they are pricey but they are very durable! I will never buy another brand of extensions again!

Euronext are okay.I would say they are middle of the road in terms of quality an thickness. I think they are kind of expensive for what you get. I have been wearing clip in hair extensions for six years and this is what I have experiences.
EuroNext: They have a good assortment of colors especially if you're blonde. The clips are good -- but they are also silver and I prefer when they match the hair. I wish they were thicker for the price you pay.
HeadKandy: The best quality and selection of colors (especially if you're blonde). I wear them everyday -- and I usually have to replace every 4 months or so. However they don't curl as well as I would like - the curls don't stay like they used to. Not sure if this has to do with the takeover by DirtyLooks? I still order the HeadKandy 10 piece set.
Luxy: My second favorite. Hair is good quality, shipping is super fast, I love their customer service - professional and nice. Wish they had more blonde shades though - because I am in between colors. Hair from Luxy seems to last a long time too. doesn't matt or frizz as easily as others.
My Fantasy Hair: Sadly, the worst. Hair was stringy, not Remy hair, really thin at the ends and wouldn't hold a curl. The hair was also strangely dry -- was almost like wispy. I would not buy these again. I attempted to contact customer service and they were very unprofessional - told me to remove my review from Makeup Ally or they would sue me etc. I will not deal with them again.

I own the Euronext Remy 100% 14" Human Hair extensions in Jet Black. I love this hair and wear it every day. I received these extensions as a present and their original shade, which was truly jet black, was way too dark for my dark brown warm-toned hair, so I soaked them in bleach overnight and the next morning when I washed them out I saw that they matched my natural hair color perfectly. The color hadn't really lifted but it was a lot softer and contained highlights. The extensions are easy to style, and though they are a tad bit thin for my medium-thick hair, I can work with them quite well and they end up looking natural. They don't tangle much and smell alright. I can also sleep in them as long as I put my hair in two braids, the clips don't pull on my scalp too much and it is pretty comfortable. :) Recommend these hair extensions, they are great quality!

I have tried a few different brands of extensions and I have came back to EuroNext, because they are the best I have tried. The only reason I gave 4 lippies in stead of 5 is because they are thin and you might have to buy to sets to get the thickness that you need. Also they don't come in any length longer than 18 inch. The clips aren't the most comfortable that I have tried, but they are alright. Ok enough with the negative points... There is nothing worse than a set of extensions that tangle at the nap of your neck!!!!! Not cute at all!!! These have minimal tangling and my first set lasted me almost a year with everyday wear. My current set I've only had for two months, but very little sign of wear yet. I love how convent it is to go to the store and pick up a set when you need them and not have to wait for them to come in the mail and hope they are the right color. Also I have not noticed much shedding at all with these extensions. I would defiantly recommend them to a friend and will probably never buy an other brand again.

These extensions are really thin and hard to blend, they almost come out stringy looking. They are only 70-80 grams. The price is really high for such thin hair extensions, I wouldn't buy them again. The extensions don't give you that "full" look of hair. I would suggest buying something online.

This box newel comes with a recessed panel design and measures 6-1/4" wide. It is made out of solid wood.
All posts come with 2 top caps. All box newels in Red Oak are made Solid. All other species are a hollow design and come with a mounting block for installation.
Posted by Unknown on 8th Jul 2014
the top trim on one of the posts was loose. other than that good craftsmanship.
Posted by Acbar Home Improvement on 2nd May 2014
I obtained a 19th century 8" oak newel post from an architectural salvage yard that was exactly what I wanted for the terminal post, and looked far and wide for a quality match for the secondary posts. Every post and baluster from Cheap Stair Parts was exceptional quality throughout, and delivered properly packaged and on time. Let's be clear: the name of this company does not reflect corners cut, but simply the efficiency of a limited, high volume, high quality production run; the product appears, and is, exactly as you'd hope from the description.
Posted by Wayne Martin on 10th Feb 2014
I've used the newels and also balusters from Cheap Stair Parts, and the workmanship is definitely first in quality.
Thank you!

It's not easy to make a coming-of-age movie that feels as if it's showing you real people, not movie characters
In preparation for the Friday debut of "The Spectacular Now," Landmark Theaters around the country curated a selection of notable coming-of-age movies: Cameron Crowe's "Say Anything" and "Almost Famous," John Hughes' "The Breakfast Club," and Richard Linklater's "Dazed and Confused."
The message was simple: "The Spectacular Now" is not just another teen movie. And the message was also accurate: With quiet, natural performances, Miles Teller ("Rabbit Hole") and Shailene Woodley ("The Descendants") anchor a movie that gives viewers the sense that they're watching real teens.
In a way, "The Spectacular Now," based on the novel by Tim Tharp with a screenplay by "(500) Days of Summer" writers Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber, has given a maligned genre a shot of freshness and emotion. TheWrap spoke to director James Ponsoldt, and to Woodley and Teller, to see how they did it.
1. Aim high.
JAMES PONSOLDT: A lot of people will get to that one-line description in TV Guide and see "teen movie." And for better or worse – I would say worse – "teen movie" has come to connote in America a marginalized film ghetto where it's about adolescence, and the approach and the filmmaking is adolescent, immature, obsessed with T&A, fart jokes, whatever.
It wasn't always that way. "Splendor in the Grass" wasn't that way, "The Last Picture Show" wasn't that way, "Rebel Without a Cause" wasn't that way. To me, there's a very cynical attitude of, "Oh, it's about young people, so we'll do it hand-held on a 5D, or make it like a found-footage movie." I wanted to create something that could exist outside of time, that could be on a shelf in 1993 or '83 or '75 next to "Breaking Away" or "Over the Edge."
2. Pick the right material.
PONSOLDT: I was approached after Sundance, because the producers had seen "Smashed" and liked it. I wasn't interested in directing someone else's script, but I was curious, so I read it. And for the first five or 10 pages, I was like, "I don't know if I like this main character. I don't want to glorify this guy." He was kind of a petulant, bratty alpha-male guy. And then he literally fell on his face, met Aimee, and then the story proceeded to take slightly left-of-center choices throughout. And ultimately, I was Sutter in high school. That was me. I'd always been interested in writing a story about late adolescence, but I didn't want to be too autobiographical, but these guys had written the thing.
3. Get the people right.
SHAILENE WOODLEY: It was one of the best screenplays I'd ever read. We fought for three years to get it made. I think Saoirse Ronan was attached at one point, and she fell out. I auditioned twice, and they were not good, but after "The Descendants" they were sort of interested in me, and I was interested in the movie. And then [director] Lee [Toland Krieger] fell out.
PONSOLDT: I had heard that Shailene was interested in it, and her being involved got was part of what got me excited about doing it.
MILES TELLER: It rang very true to me, and I knew that I'd be able to play him. I've played that kind of party dude before, but this, you actually got to see some stuff underneath it, which is always my favorite stuff. I auditioned twice for the other director, but they weren't good. But when it came around again, I just met James at a bar and we had some drinks and then he said he wanted to do the movie with me. Yay alcohol!
4. Make sure you're on the same page.
PONSOLDT: When I met the producers after reading the script, I still was like, "I'm going to give them every reason to think I'm not the guy, even though I do really like this script." So I put my nervous energy into work, and put together a 60-page look book of exactly what I wanted it to look and feel like. I told them, "These frames and references are probably not yours, but I only want to do it if I can shoot in anamorphic 35mm, in Athens, Georgia, where I'm from, and with these actors" … and they embraced all of it.
5. Know the stakes.
PONSOLDT: When you're 18 and you've had your heart broken, you're gonna die. The world's gonna crush you. Or when you first connect with someone and have sex for the first time, it's so Proustian and salient that you will never forget it – that smell, the feel of that shoulder, whatever it is. And I think the texture and feel and emotionality of film, and of anamorphic 35mm, was part and parcel of how I wanted to do it. I wanted a real elegance, not a cheapness.
6. Embrace the mess.
PONSOLDT: You imagine something so many times in your mind that on the day you shoot, if it's actually raining, or the actor has a really bad zit, there's a feeling at first of, "Oh my God, this is different!" But different's not bad. Different's just different. You should say, "OK, in real life people get zits, and it rains."
WOODLEY: We just got to play, and in every scene there was something different. A bug would fly by, and we could react off of that. We just tried to be so present in every moment.
7. Go with the flow.
TELLER: I didn't know that some of the takes were going to be one long shot. James could have given us any kind of idea and I think we would have done it, just because of how he was approaching the material.
WOODLEY: And he was so respectful of our instincts, and how we saw the characters. We just had an open dialogue with him, which is so rare. He's an actor's director, for sure.
TELLER: And I'm a director's actor, so that works.
WOODLEY: And I'm an actor's actor. [laughs] It was very fun, and a different way to film. A lot of one-ers [single shots, without coverage]. I prefer that now.
TELLER: And I just prefer what Shailene prefers.
WOODLEY: Because he's my little pet.

Leighton Meester: Sex Tape is Not Realby Free Britney at . Comments
Leighton Meester understands that being on a buzzed-about show like Gossip Girl automatically puts her in the spotlight – but she doesn't have to like it.
"I don't want most of what comes along with all of this," says the star in the September issue of Harper's Bazaar, likely referring to one thing in particular.
One downside of fame? The rumored Leighton Meester sex tape.
"[The tape] is not real, so it makes me sort of sad," says the 23-year-old Gossip Girl starlet. "It's unfortunate that it got carried as far as it did."
Meester says the rumor taught her some lessons about life.
"I definitely understand the nature of people better now and that the mere allegation of something like that could be headline news," she laments.
"People think it's real because somebody says it is."
Fortunately, Leighton Meester star has friends who watch out for her.
"I feel like my friends are in a cult because we're like, 'No outsiders!'" Meester says. "I've never been crazy. I'm a very good girl, to be honest. I don't do anything that would hurt anybody. Honestly, all I ever do is work."
And she's not talking about any sort of fancy footwork, either. The racy pictures from the alleged Leighton Meester sex tape sure looked like her to us.
Follow the jump for a look at some of the images being circulated ...
Leighton Meester Sex Tape is known to be a hard to find one.
Check it out here: Leighton Meester Sex Tape (full version)
Seems homemade to me
Have fun
I'm Tori Black and I shoot a lot of sex tapes(OBVIOUSLY) but that one's not meeee!! lol From a pro's point of view, that's her.
http://woodenspears.com/wp-con... http://media.photobucket.com/i... It actually KINDA looks like Leighton Meester.
Some editing won't hurt would it? Hmmm...just saying
I've said all along that it's actually a porn star named Tori Black.

Although Il Buco no longer sells antiques in its Bond Street space, one of the restaurants chandeliers is now in Mad Men star Christina Hendrickss L.A. home. She loved the fixture and yearned for it for years, so her fianc, Geoffrey Arend, decided she would have it, and that he would propose marriage underneath it. Despite his lovelorn pleas, Il Buco owner Donna Lennard was reluctant to part with it, however, so Arend appealed to renowned lighting designer Warren Muller, who created the piece. I told him the story, and he was really touched by it. And I said, I have one more idea. Ill send you a check, you make a new chandelier, you bless her restaurant with love from us, and then you bring that chandelier back to me, and you bless my marriage with love, Arend told us last night at the Cinema Society screening of his new movie (500) Days of Summer. Muller made a new, different chandelier for Il Buco and sent the original out to L.A. I went through this whole ordeal; it was like my own slaying of a dragon, Arend said. And I finally got it and I hung it in her house, and I proposed underneath it, and it was incredible. Fortunately, Hendricks said yes, and the two are planning to marry in October. We hear unconfirmed rumors that their wedding reception will be at you guessed it Il Buco.
Il Buco Chandelier Saves MarriageBy Bennett Marcus

BERLIN (AP) -- The Federal Statistical Office says German exports dropped more than expected in September amid lower demand from the country's euro partners, many of which are mired in recession.
September exports were down a monthly 2.5 percent at EUR91.7 billion ($117 billion), when adjusted for seasonal and calendar factors. Economists had predicted a 1.5 percent decline.
The decline more than wiped out the 2.3 percent increase reported in August.
Imports fell alongside exports, dropping 1.6 percent to EUR74.9 billion
As a result, Germany still has a healthy trade surplus.
Compared to September 2011 exports fell 3.4 percent while imports dropped 3.6 percent.

Cheeky Monkey [MSP] now open!
I noted on the earlier thread that Cheeky Monkey, the new deli next to Solo Vino on Selby Avenue, was set to open today.
They did!
Posters had all kinds of speculation about whether they'd be able to fill a deli niche better (or differently) than Jimmy John's and D'Amico Brothers over on Grand Avenue.
They can!
The menu is divided into items that are available whenever they're open, and those that can be ordered after 3:00pm. All-day items are $5-$7 and include sandwiches (presumably cold), hot sandwiches, pressed sandwiches and salads. Accompaniments include a soup of the day ($3.50/$5.00) and accompanying sides ($1.25-$3.50). Dinner-only items include hot pots & plates ($8), cheese and meat boards ($10), and various sides ($3). There is a dessert case, bottled & tap beers, wines by the glass or bottle, and coffee or tea.
The good thing about having my own schedule is that I can try new places on a whim. The down side is that I can only try so many things. Tonight's choices were the cumin pork shoulder with lime & cilantro, the soft grits with bacon & cheddar, and the roasted vegetables with Moroccan spice. I ordered at the counter, scooped up my Farm Saison tap beer and some silverware & napkins, and found a table within view of the fireplace.
You read that right – the fireplace. The Cheeky Monkey has a bit of a British vibe. In addition to a couple of half-booths and more conventional seating, the main dining area features some deep leather sofas and armchairs. Some provide a conversation area around a large low table, and the rest gather in front of a cheery fireplace. They look like they'd be nice for catching up over a bottle of wine.
About that warming meal: pretty darn good. The pork was served in a cast iron Staub dish. It had been prepared low & slow, tender but not mushy. A squeeze of the lime chunk offset the cumin flavors and the sweet, long-cooked onions. The single bread slice wasn't quite enough to soak up the broth, which was quite tasty. The grits were truly truly cheesy, with a nubby texture and generous pieces of bacon piled on top. The vegetables were zucchini, asparagus, red peppers, onions & more. During or after the roasting, they were tossed in oil with a heavy spice mix. The mix was more vibrant spicy than fiery-chili hot. I could perhaps have had a little less of that – grind enough spices together and they'll lend a gritty texture after a while – but the flavor was a good contrast to the other dishes.
Dessert had to be taken home for later. While one of them is ostensibly breakfast, it's worth admitting that individual ricotta cheesecakes at Cheeky Monkey are nothing like the dense poundage of other cheesecake formulations. They're lighter – creamy but still toothsome – and the crust does not overwhelm. They can be served with whipped cream and/or lemon curd. I chose a bright sauce of raspberries, blueberries and strawberries.
On those nights when I just don't have what it takes for a home-cooked meal, I'd go for a scone pot pie or a shrimp salad with chickpeas & cucumbers. A bottle of wine from the delightful & opinionated folks next door, and that'd be that.
Friendly, attentive staff are admittedly still working out the kinks in the routine, but it so far it looks like they're getting it right.
re: KTFoley
I'll be curious on future trips to see if customers are comfortable sitting and reading or bringing their computers (a la Coffee News), or if the feel of the place remains closer to a dining experience.
In all, I think this is an exciting addition to St. Paul. I'm eager to return and try some of the hot food choices and sides.
re: sftomn
I apologize to all; I wrote a much longer and more detailed review last night, that I somehow managed to lose between completion and posting.
Here's what I remember -
I had a mixed experience with the food last night. I got a cold sandwich with turkey, herbed mayo, asiago, avocado, and bacon on flaxseed bread. I ordered it without bacon, which may have been a mistake. The resulting sandwich was somewhat disappointing, tasting overwhelmingly of turkey and little else. The herbed mayo added a touch of texture, and I tasted the avocado in two or three bites, but neither was present enough to add much to the sandwich's flavor.
I also had a cup of turkey lentil soup, one of the soups of the day, which I very much enjoyed. The soup was simple and hearty - a nice texture, with a very rich taste, balanced nicely with tasted like a dose of olive oil.
My fellow guest had a nutella and a banana sandwich (really!) which was grilled and appropriately rich.
On future trips, I think I'd very much like to explore the hot sandwiches, as they seem to include more flavorful components than the cold ones.
I very much like the concept of the menu and service structure - somewhere between Cafe Latte and Coffee News. Sandwiches are served as just that - sandwiches in a basket - unless you specifically choose to add a side (I didn't). This keeps the price point low (no sandwich is over $7, nothing on the menu over $10), and the number of potential meal combinations very high.
I was slightly taken aback the decor/ambiance of the place. For a restaurant featuring such traditionally comfort food, the feel of the seating area seems a touch too stark and modern. This was accented by the rather overwhelming techno that was playing last night, which must've sounded odd to the couple relaxing on leather couches in front of the fireplace.
I'll be curious to see what kind of clientele the Cheeky Monkey attracts in the future - whether it will be a destination for a full meal, or the kind of place where you might go with a book or a laptop to enjoy a cup of coffee and a snack. The menu suggests the latter, but the ambiance suggests the former.
I'll be returning for lunch today, and will post more thoughts then!
Drat. Places link is below, but I can't edit the entry with my version of Internet Explorer so here are the details:

Cheeky Monkey Deli
525 Selby Ave, St Paul, MN 55102
I went with some co-workers for lunch. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Mostly hot sandwiches and chips. I believe the chips are hand made, they have containers behind full of chips. They were quite good and crisp but I prefer my chips to be a bit thicker.
My sandwich was roast beef, bacon cheddar and giardiniera. I enjoyed it but probably wouldn't get it again. There were many items on the menu that looked interesting.
re: babaoriley7
So excited to read the good reviews! I live in the neighborhood and will check this place out very soon.
Went there for lunch today. Had the hot pot roast sandwich. YUM!! Great atmosphere...spectacular food! I can't wait to go back and try some more!
Hey gang. Long time lurker, first time poster. Saw this thread and thought I'd chime in on my visit to the Cheeky Monkey Deli Saturday afternoon.
The atmosphere inside the Cheeky Monkey was killer. I loved the layout, the fireplace, the knowledgeable and accommodating staff, the music, the quick service. Very impressive for such a fresh eatery.
I had a cup of the lentil turkey soup which was extremely flavorful and had a really nice texture. The bread that came with it was pretty "meh". Next I had the Cubano sandwich...which was an enormous mallet on the flavor palette. The sandwich was piping hot, well layered and very generous with the cumin pork shoulder and ham...and pickles...gotta love pickles.
On a dessert note, their chocolate chip cookie is pretty much a full on mouthgasm. Perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy and melted chocolate on the inside. I'm already planning my attack for my venture back to Cheeky Monkey later today.
re: NugarifiK
I had a fantastic experience at Cheeky Monkey on Friday night, and when I walked past on Saturday afternoon, I smiled to see that it was packed full of people. I wrote a full review with pictures at my blog: www.ediblecities.com. I think it will be a well-loved addition to the neighborhood.
Also, given that the deli has free Wi-Fi, I think it will grow to be a versatile spot, kind of like Gigi's in Minneapolis. Laptoppers will probably feel comfortable hanging out, especially during the day over lunch, and at night, it can easily transform into a great dinner spot, even atmospheric enough for a date. But then the question becomes, do they serve good coffee for those people who come to get some work done? I didn't look into that one. In any case, kudos to these folks. I'm thrilled to have a unique destination for casual food. It warms my little indie heart.
re: carrieobry
Talking to the owners on Wednesday, they acknowledged that there was wi-fi and also that they did not want to make a big deal of it. I get the sense that they have mixed feelings about the plop-down-at-a-table-for-the-day behavior that is so prevalent at places like Nina's.
I see password access as a distinct possibility.
Picked up dinner from Cheeky Monkey tonight and it was delicious! I had the vegan potato and kale soup and the shrimp, chickpea, mixed greens salad with a citrus cilantro vinaigrette (the fresh tarragon was the perfect touch). My husband had the hot pot roast sandwich - I tried a couple bites and it was fantastic. I'm already plotting our return back!
Tried it for lunch today and had a mostly positive experience. I had the Cuban hot sandwich and liked it quite a lot. My wife had the Pot Roast Sandwich (she wanted the Pot Roast Pot but couldn't get it because it was 2:45 and they don't serve it 'til 3. Odd that all the ingredients for the sandwich, sans bread, are in the hot pot...
We also split a bowl of the lentil/turkey soup and definitely would not do that again. Bland, flat, tasteless, pasty. The garlic parmesan bread was a real nice value at $2.50 and made a nice side where the soup didn't.
I, too, don't get the layout, but that's no big deal. The techno reported earlier was nowhere to be heard today, thank God. Everyone there was friendly and helpful and sporting their Cordon Bleu jackets. ;->
I'll go back to try more things eventually. Nothing made me want to change my plans for Monday though.
A side note... they're already changing their prices so watch your ticket carefully. The Cuban sandwich, advertised at $6 on the chalk board is being rung up at $7 with the proviso "we just haven't changed the menu yet." Pickle Pots are $.75 and very tasty, but for the three teeny tiny pieces you get, they could probably be comp'd, ala Crossroads and other delis with provide a small portion gratis.
A nice place with decent food that will probably do well in the neighborhood.
Went back to Cheeky Monkey on Sunday afternoon to try another soup and sandwich combination. Despite reading that it was bland in an earlier review I ordered the panini'd chicken breast sandwich with avocado, mayo, a cheese...I'm having trouble even remembering what was in it...needless to say I probably won't have it again.
Oh yes! It had bacon on it as well..unfortunately all the bacon was fatty and not in realm of crispy. Ended up taking it off the sandwich, could not taste the avocado and the mayo needs some sort strong seasoning to bring some flavor to the sandwich.
On the bright side ot the meal. The tomato & roasted red pepper soup was amazing. This fantastic soup has two distinct stages and flavors. As soon as the soup hits your tongue you taste a fresh, delicious tomato soup and as the soup moves to the back of the mouth the red pepper and spice bursts like a million flavor crystals. I think I may go back once again tomorrow to try their grilled cheese paired with this soup (if available).
Cliffnotes: - Second visit to Cheeky
- Ordered chicken, bacon, avocado, mayo, something panini & tomato and roasted red pepper soup
- Sandwich is lacking flavor. Couldn't taste avocado, bacon was fatty and not crispy
- Soup was outstanding. A combo of grilled cheese and this soup could make anyone's day.

re: NugarifiK
I live about a block from the place so had anxiously been awaiting their opening to try it- I like the general layout, didn't notice anything disturbing about the music. I spent quite a
while chatting with a couple of people behind the counter, asking details about the menu.
I was hoping they would be using local/free-range type stuff- they said they would be but that since they had just opened they hadn't had a chance to establish those relationships yet with farmers etc.
I had the griddled potatoes side and the coleslaw and the cheesecake. The potatoes
were very good but a very small portion, maybe 3-4 slices. They came with a nice curry
mustard aioli- I was told they make all their mayonnaise and sauces. The coleslaw was
quite good, included some fennel, creamy but not overly so, nice balance of sweet and sour. Good coleslaw is hard to find imho, often too sweet or salty for me.
The cheesecake was good- I had it with the berry topping AND a little whipped cream.
I really like ricotta cheesecake- these were not very obvious in the ricotta- more like a
part creamcheese, part ricotta thing, so they seemed pretty similar to normal cheesecake, a good one though. The berry topping was great. The whipped cream, although they told me they made it there and showed me the device that whips it, ended
up tasting exactly like cheap canned rediwhip, kind of bland and watery...go figure.
I like the creativity in the menu- this place deserves some business, and quite possibly
the food will become more consistent once they have been open for a while. Oh , I did
get a sample of that turkey/lentil soup mentioned above, and it seemed too salty to me,
and not very interesting-the turkey is smoked, and the soup basically tasted a lot like split pea with ham. To his credit, the chef added more water to the soup pot after I told him the soup was too salty....Very friendly people there..........
re: NugarifiK
I too was disappointed by the chicken sandwich I had Saturday. The bacon was soggy and fatty; I took it off. Even so, I felt like the sandwich was overwhelmed by the chicken seasoning and crying out for some acid. If I had stayed to eat, I would have probably asked for a lime, but I was eating in the car, so no such luck...
It's too bad, everything else I have had there has been wonderful. I'll definitely go back, just steer clear of the chicken sandwich.
re: normativestructures
Huh. The friend I went there with last week says that's her favorite sandwich. But I have noticed that she doesn't appreciate contrasting flavors in single dishes.
That night I had the cumin pork roast, served with a couple of wedges of lime and a few sprigs of cilantro in one of those little cast iron pots, along with a small slice of bread. I did squeeze both lime wedges to jazz things up and then It was exactly what I'd hoped it would be--tasty, succulent, mostly lean with just a little fattiness for flavor. Not overpowered by the cumin.
I also had a share of my friend's pickles (there were many more than the 3 reported earlier there), and my own basic but good sidedish of fresh, lightly sauteed kale, sprinkled with a few sesame seeds.
I made it to Cheeky Monkey on Friday...got the Cuban with chips.
Really good meal overall. All the flavors in the sandwich worked great together, great bread too. I agree with babaoreilly about the chips. They are quite good, but a bit on the thin side. And yes, they are all hand cut.
re: BigE
Been there twice so far, once to eat and once for takeout. Very friendly staff ,and overall a positive experience. Vegan potato kale soup was great, even my 12 mo old ate the kale! Also had a good Cuban and pot roast sandwich, and the braised pork plate which was just the pork in a cast iron staub pan. Cheddar grits were nice, and served with bacon on top, too! Love the vibe and am very happy its in the neighborhood.
re: dahlsk
Their website's not functional yet: besides the soups, which appear to be hit or miss, what is there for someone who doesn't eat wheat?
re: Enso
the chalk (but seemingly not regularly re-written) menu suggests that all sandwiches can be made into salads. there are also several salads on the menu, and cheese and meat plates which, while they seem rather self explanatory, are not described in further detail (and we didnt ask since we were getting sandwiches).
a separate board listed the cheese and meat options, many of the meat options were house cured/smoked.
I have tried the pot roast sandwich, the Cuban sandwich, the shrimp roll, the coleslaw and the pickles.
The pickles are delicious, highly recommended.
The pot roast sandwich was delicious but definitely needed at least double the horseradish sauce, couldn't taste it really.
The Cuban was just ok.
The Shrimp Roll was delicious and my favorite so far.
The coleslaw desperately needed salt... probably wouldn't order it again for $2.50.
I saw them making the chips and would like to try them.
Great beer selection, ok wine selection, and soda is only $1.25. I love the complimentary cucumber water (lemon water also available).
Love the decor and the service. I'll be back often!
re: LizzieB_MSP
I recently tried the homemade chips (along with another shrimp roll) and the chips were just ok. I don't eat a lot of potato chips but I think I like thick cut kettle chips a little better.
Next I will try the hummus-- the table next to me had it, and it looked great.
Friends raved about the Carrot and Ginger soup, but they were not offering it the last time I visited.
Since i just noticed the newer input on the chicken salad, i thought i would add that i didnt really think the shrimp roll was bad, but it wasnt great either. when it comes to a cold seafood sandwich, the quality of the protein is really really important, and while these werent totally flavorless rubbery shrimp as one might expect at a crappy salad bar, they werent really ready to star.
I think ill be sticking to the pork sandwich or pot roast from now on - though the turkey with bacon and avocado is really good also (they inexplicably toasted the bread once on a to go order and it was less than ideal as cold toast isnt a taste i love.
I have been a few different times and each time I haved tried something new. My favorites so far are the Meatloaf Sandwich,Roast Beef/Blue Cheese (And I'm not even a big fan of blue cheese), and the Egg/Bacon sandwich. The Meatloaf had great flavor and spice with the chilies and the spicy mustard.
For sides I enjoy the grits with bacon and mascarpone cheese or the chips... which I do enjoy being thinly sliced.
I went a couple of weeks ago, on a Saturday. The entryway was clogged with people waiting for to-go orders, which made examining the menu and ordering stressful, even though there wasn't a line.
I found the decor to be utterly bizarre. Upscale contemporary meets design on a dime (esp. magazine covers in faux-frames. A merlot interior for a sandwich shop? Again, bizarre.
I had the pot roast sandwich, and the wife had the Muffuletta. The meat was great on both sandwiches, and my wife loved hers all around. Mine was lacking in balance. The ciabatta was a bit overwhelming, and the pickled onions and spread didn't add enough kick. I would have preferred a softer bread.
The chips were good, especially with a dash of tabasco. I wanted to try the grits, but they weren't available until 3p, which is a bit curious on a weekend.
Put me in the not impressed camp. My wife and I went the CM on a Friday night. Our first stop was Blue Door Pub (ridiculoulsy jam-packed and I'm no longer 20-something, so standing around drinking beer while waiting held little appeal). So we went to the opposite end of Selby to Cheeky Monkey.
I ordered the cumin pork entree and a side of roasted vegetables. My wife got the meatloaf sandwich. The pork was lacking in flavor. No discernable cumin, no discernable lime. Served in a small crock that had about 1/3 cup of liquid in the bottom. Needed better seasoning overall, and not just cumin and lime. Someone posted above receiving two lime wedges to squeeze. I got one lime disc that had no juice in it. The dish also came with two slivers of baguette (and I do mean slivers).
Roasted veggies consisted of onions, zucchini, summer squash, eggplant, and red peppers. All cut too small, swimming in olive oil, and not seasoned well (if at all).
My wife's meatloaf sandwhich was victim of a careless, sloppy assembly, and was overpowered by horseradish.
Loved the setting and the seating. I really wanted a better experience. Not much business going on on a Friday evening. I'll give it another chance, maybe for lunch.
This spot is much better than one would expect from a "Deli". The space itself is beautiful with a fireplace and bistro type tables. Large front windows let in a lot of light.
The menu (decorative chalkboard) has sandwiches, Panini, soup salads and some other larger meals.
We ordered at the counter and then sat at a table to talk and enjoy the fire on a recent fall day. I had a cup (actually more bowl sized) of lentil soup that was one of the best I have eaten. A nice touch was a sprinkling of cilantro, onion and toasted coconut on top. My friend liked the chili and we thought the cubano we split was great. There are many dessert choices. We split a giant macaroon. I am going back today.

Recent update: Cheeky Monkey now switches over to table service for dinner. It's still counter service at lunch/brunch.
We went to Cheeky Monkey for the first time last night. I love the space. Very inviting and great for a foursome sharing a meal. I too liked the beer selection. Our server though knew almost nothing about the beer and wine offerings. Very nice and cheery though. My chicken pressed sandwich was ok. It was supposed to have the bacon (house cured I believe) but I did not detect much. I had asked for the herb mayo not the spice mayo but think I got the latter.
One of my companions had the muffaletta and the meats in them were very good. Two kinds of house cured hams and salami and other things. The meats were excellent.
I will go back and try other things.
Cheeky Monkey has been a staple since it opened as I'm a few blocks away - however I have to say I'm not a fan of the switch to a full service operation at dinner time.
It lost a bit of it's charm with that. I still go often enough for lunch but I loved just popping in for a quick dinner bite and having it feel like a cafe as opposed to a regular restaurant.
Back again for lunch today at the suggestion of a friend. Meh.
I think I like the idea of Cheeky Monkey more than the execution. I ordered the mushroom and brie pressed sandwich. I did see an herb leaf in there, but it was pretty bland. A little red pepper, even black pepper, more herbs, anything to give it some depth and complexity of flavor would be welcome. If I'm in the area for lunch again, I think I'll walk across the street to Bon Vie.

re: Brad Ballinger
I actually really like the simplicity of the mushroom and brie toasted sandwich. Just a hint of thyme, not overly salty, not overly greasy (usually). It's my favorite thing on the menu, and maybe even my favorite sandwich in the area.

Oksana Grigorieva to Bash Mel Gibson on Oprahby Free Britney at . Comments
Oksana Grigorieva wasn't kidding about a PR offensive.
Oprah Winfrey has landed a coveted TV interview with Mel Gibson's estranged source of baby mama drama and domestic abuse allegations, edging out 60 Minutes.
Winfrey's production company, Harpo, apparently struck a deal with Team Oksana on Tuesday. There's no telling what the nut job will say on the popular program.
"Oksana has a very powerful story to share, from emigrating to the United States from Russia, her marriage with Timothy Dalton, her music career and a volatile relationship with Mel Gibson," an insider says, regarding the upcoming Oprah interview.
Let's be honest with ourselves here. Yes, Mel Gibson is a jackass and bona fide lunatic who should be locked up if he really did any of the things Oksana alleges.
But this woman is no saint herself. Quite the contrary, in fact.
In addition to the domestic violence investigation of Gibson, police are also probing Oksana to determine if she's guilty of extortion. Criminal or not, she is shady.Asked by paparazzi about the Oprah sit-down, Grigorieva said she couldn't talk about it, adding "the truth will come out" regarding her relationship with Gibson.
The Mel Gibson rants have already come out, though, and while they are vile and deeply disturbing, they don't mean she's not trumping up the violence claims.
Nor do they mean she's a victim, or at least the only one. It's clear she was on the cusp of securing millions to destroy the tapes ... which she may have leaked.
She adds that she's "never been afraid of extortion charges, because there are none." Not yet anyway. Give it a couple of weeks and then check with the cops.
What is left for her to tell on the Oprah show considering the fact that we have been getting daily tidbits for weeks about their mix-match love.
Ergo, I do appreciate your reply. I think that as we are not in the the middle of the cross-fire we really don't know what the truth is. I only know that women are murdered every day by abusive partners and overall society doesn't really seem to care and then make the women seem responsible for her own murder. Whatever we might think of Oksana, I can't condemn or judge her if she is trying to save her life.
Mel Gibson is great in movies though! Thats all that matters right? or wait...
All I can think about in this scenario, is when Nicole Simpson's 911 calls and begging for help really didn't do her any good regarding the raging OJ. Oksana may have saved her own life by this being public, even if most people don't seem to like her.
It's her life, not ours.
Its funny you say that Kayle. My friends and I believe what you are saying in unfortunately true most of the time, we have never known a hottie young russian girl who wasn't a gold digger. I in fact have a wealthy friend who is right now enamored with his new "girlfriend" from Russia, and no matter what anybody tells him about her, he cant see the obvious light
enough with this russian bride/slut!!! i have yet to meet a russian woman that is not into money or marrying someone with money. they are all so eager to come into the us, that is why they look like this ... cheap and tacky! the less clothes, the more tightfiiting, the better. spreading their legs even wider, doesn't hurt. that's how they lure stupid american men into giving them anything they want. poor mel, fell for it too!
She is such a pig
woah i thought that was octomum

Zoller, an administrative support specialist for NorthBay Healthcare's Med/Surg unit, was one of several NorthBay employees who had volunteered to take turns sitting at the gentleman's side, as part of a new NorthBay program called "No One Dies Alone." The program places trained volunteers at the bedside of patients who are dying and need companionship and support in their final days.
Training for the brand-new volunteer program had only just concluded, according to Patty Kramer, NorthBay's director of Supportive Care Services, when she learned there was an ICU patient who was dying and had no family members present. This would mean the first deployment of NorthBay's NODA team, and with the help of Odessa Lopez, administration support specialist, an email alert went out to the volunteer list. Four who were available stepped up to help when the patient was transferred from NorthBay Medical Center's ICU to the Med-Surg unit about a month ago.
Kramer, along with Shelley Johnson, R.N., NorthBay director of Med/Surg Services, decided to organize the NODA program after witnessing a heartbreaking case some time back.
NorthBay's NODA program is modeled after a national one Kramer learned of while attending a case management conference. "The idea is to be a 'compassionate presence,'" she said, and that is what Zoller knew her physical presence and soft humming were providing the patient. "When I walked in the room and saw him, I saw my brother, my father, my best friend. I knew it was important to sit with this person because I would want someone to sit with my family."
There are about a dozen NorthBay employees who have completed the two-hour NODA training, and by doing so they have agreed to be "on call" -- and on their own time -- to simply sit with patients, or to read from a book or poetry, to play music, or hold their hand, to offer comfort and companionship in an hour of need.
"Our group of volunteers represents the spectrum of employees at NorthBay," Kramer noted. "Some work with patients all the time, and others have very little patient contact as part of their primary job."
While the charter group of volunteers is not large enough to provide 24/7 support, if all goes well, Kramer plans to open the program up for public volunteers next year.
"I encourage people to look into their heart and see if this is something they can do," says Koller. "Our lives are busy with work and children, but what's an hour? Whatever you can give to be at someone's side when they are alone and dying will mean so much."

IRVING, Texas (AP) - Cowboys left tackle Flozell Adams has been fined $12,500 for kicking two New York Giants on Sunday, making it two straight games he's been fined.
Adams was punished not only for the second-quarter play that left Justin Tuck with a shoulder injury, but also for doing it to Osi Umenyiora in the fourth quarter.
Adams was flagged for kicking Tuck, but not for the swipe at Umenyiora. After the game, Tuck called it a "bush league play," and Adams shot back Monday, saying he didn't know Tuck was hurt, adding, "From a supposed kick? Tell him to stay up. It ain't my fault."
Adams also was fined $5,000 for an unnecessary roughness penalty
against Tampa Bay in the opener, which Adams said he wants to

text: Here's How Will Smith Can Raise His Own Taxes Today Print article Send a Tip from AP 8 May 2012 post a comment The AP story below is yet another example of a hypocritical gajillionaire shilling for Obama with the false claim that his taxes are too low. There is nothing stopping the rich (or anyone) from refusing to take tax write offs, and there is nothing stopping Will Smith from raising his own taxes by voluntarily contributing 30% of his income to the government. You made $20 million for "Men In Black 3," Will Smith. Show me the $6 million check you wrote to Uncle Sam, or shut up. ----- (AP) Will Smith supports Obama's call for higher taxes By RYAN PEARSON AP Entertainment Writer LOS ANGELES One of Hollywood's biggest and best-paid stars is supporting President Barack Obama's call for higher taxes on the country's top earners. Will Smith said while promoting "Men In Black III" last week that he supports the move. "I'm very supportive of that idea," Smith told The Associated Press in an interview. "America has been fantastic to me. I have no problem paying whatever I need to pay to keep my country growing." Obama has proposed that everyone earning $1 million a year or more should pay at least 30 percent of their income in taxes. One research group said the change would affect around 210,000 taxpayers. Vanity Fair has reported that Smith was paid an estimated $20 million for "Men In Black III."
