Urban Lobster review - ugh
- Midtown Jimmi Oct 16, 2006 06:31 PM
Went to Urban Lobster on Houston for lunch today. Not impressed.
The interior is done-up like a second-rate wrap place in a mall -- uncomfortable rickety plastic top stools and all.
The staff was friendly, but the woman behind the register was reaching under her shirt and massaging her belly while I was eating. A lady, I assume one of the owners, was at a table being very rude and bossy to some guy who was redesigning the layout on her menu or something. When he asked her for a pen, she snapped "What am I, your slave?"
People kept coming in trying to figure out what the place was ("You have fish n' chips?" "no;" "You sell coffee?" "no.").
I ordered the lobster roll. It comes in a plastic take away container even if you're staying (at least mine did). It's made with celery, which I'm not partial to, so I picked it out. The bun was a gummy bready mess with a bit of butter and not well toasted. I understand this isn't Mary's Fish Camp, but come on, toast the damn roll right at least.
The lobster meat was okay. The mayoniase had a weird aftertaste. Together it tasted fishy, which was less than ideal.
$20 with tax. Not worth it. Not returning.
Yeah, I went over the weekend and had a very uninspired Manhattan Clam Chowder. My husband had the lobster bisque which had waaayy too much sherry in it, giving it a weird medicinal flavor. The place has a great concept, but the execution is definitely lacking. And prices are pretty high -- $6 for soup, $7 for salad, and most of the seafood dishes are pushing $20.
i can't wait to not go. thanks for the info. sounds awful and i do not like a bad Tides attitude as i'm a big fan of the place.
As per the usual, just because something seems simple it must be easy to do correctly.
I am a chef and to do this type of food you really have to know what you are doing.
How many times have you had a lobster either steamed ,baked or broiled that just was terrible??And cost an arm and a leg??
I STILL have not had a good clam chowder any where in NYC and I don't even bother to buy lobster rolls any more because they all are over loaded with filler and to make them at home and have a great one is way more satisfying.
To operate a place like this and have great food EVERYTHING has to be made fresh every day, with fresh ingredients and if most of the consumers knew what went on behind the scenes in most of the fish places in NYC they would NEVER go out and eat fish or seafood.
re: jonnyk
Well if you want really good fish just go to any place in Chinatown that has a tank and pick it yourself.Or spend big bucks at Le Bernadian
re: chameleonz
I go to this wholesale place outside of Chinatown. For just under $20, I can pick out an alive and kicking 2-lb lobster, steam it, and have some leftover to make a lobster roll. It's called the Lobster Farm.
I passed by this place on Sunday night and was intrigued. Thanks for saving me from a bad experience, hounds!
I just had it delivered at work for lunch. Awful. Took more than an hour to get here, which is par for the course, I suppose, but then the lobster roll bordered on inedible. In addition to being $19 before tax, it was tiny (which would have been fine if I were at a stand in the cape I suppose) and it was possibly the fishiest (and chewiest) lobster I've ever tasted. If I hadn't been starving, I would have thrown it into the trash, where its flavor would at least match its surroundings.
Pity I didn't check chowhound before ordering it.
i order from them on seamless for a quick din-din from time to time (never been in) - but after my recent experience - i will avoid.
01) rude phone service
02) $.50 EXTRA for butter for a baked potato??? not extra butter... just butter.
03) will only send utensils to a business???
04) i HATE it when people call you "my friend" when they are being rude to you.
- the lobster roll is fair to poor, shrimp roll is better, but the tuna roll is pretty damn good... weird because the the cheaper it gets, the better it is!?!?
- broccoli w/garlic: tastes micro-waved, not fresh, and has a dollop of what tastes like pre-cut jarred garlic

Community comments lead city, police to tout decrease in crimePublished 9:50pm Wednesday, July 11, 2012
Crime statistics filed by the Selma Police Department for 2011 showed an 8.2 decrease in total incidents from those recorded in 2010.
Selma Mayor George Evans said he asked Selma Chief of Police William T. Riley to read the numbers at Tuesday's Selma City Council meeting in response to some media reports crime in the city had increased drastically under Evans' administration.
"Naturally, I've been very concerned about a lot of the language out there, the dialog and discussion of the city when it comes to crime and comparisons," Evans said. "Here is the data that reflects the status of the city based on data that's been reported and recorded on crime and murder in our city… I don't know where they're getting their data from, but it's not what our data shows."
Records indicate that a total of 1,765 incidents were recorded in 2011, a decrease from the 1,923 reported in 2010.
Of all the categories listed — arson, assault, auto theft, breaking and entering of a vehicle, burglary, forgery/fraud, murder, rape, robbery and theft — decreases occurred in breaking and entering of vehicles, burglary, forgery/fraud and murder.
Up-to-date numbers for this year, which revealed the city is on track to have significantly less incidents than in 2011, were also presented at the meeting.
"If we continue on the path that we on are now, we will continue to see a decrease in crime," Riley said. "Even though our numbers don't show it, the officers are working hard … and their efforts are being shown by this decrease in overall crime."
Figures in every category except murder are well below 50 percent of 2011's totals. According to the police statistics, the city is 20 percent below last year's total of murders.
Selma City Council President Cecil Williamson questioned Riley about a report he had heard on the radio earlier Tuesday that said crime had increased a significant amount under the current administration.
"As you can see, that is just not true," Riley said. "We do not have an increase in overall crime. We are doing what we need to do."
"It just amazes me, Chief, that all of these numbers are on the Alabama Criminal Justice information website," Williamson replied. "Anybody can go to that website and see what these numbers are. And people who tell these lies to the community think we're all stupid, that we're not going to look for ourselves and see that they are lying; it's just amazing to me."
Evans said the fact that people will go out and trick people during an election year and call that politics was unreal.

A high-ranking intelligence official says the U.S. government is considering taking equity stakes in American high technology companies to prevent proprietary information from falling into the wrong hands, reportsThe Washington Post's Walter Pincus.
During a speech at the annual symposium of the Association for Intelligence Officers, Donald Kerr, principal deputy director of national intelligence, called for "a fundamental rethinking of our government's traditional relationship with the private sector," noting that the majority of U.S. critical infrastructure is privately owned and needs help protecting themselves from cyberattacks and cybercriminals.
Kerr said he fears hackers that steal proprietary information, crash systems, and place false information onto Web sites. He also fears "supply chain attacks," during which a hacker plants "vulnerabilities in communications hardware and other high-tech equipment 'that can be used later to bring down systems or cripple our infrastructure.'"
During a speech at another symposium, Kerr spoke of three ideas to help companies protect their proprietary information, according to Pincus.
One approach would have the government take equity stakes in companies developing technical products, in effect expanding the practice of In-Q-Tel, the CIA entity that invests in companies.
Another proposal is to provide the same protective capabilities applied to government Web sites, ending in .gov and .mil, to the private industry's sites, ending in .com, which Kerr said have close to 98 percent of the nation's most important information.
He also suggested that the government ask insurers whether they cover "a failure to protect intellectual capital." That way, Kerr said, the insurers, through their premiums, "provide an incentive for companies, in fact, to pay attention to protecting their intellectual property."
As Kerr made clear, these proposals are aimed at keeping the United States as the most technologically advanced and economically dynamic country in the world.
"We have a responsibility," he said, "to help those companies that we take an equity stake in or those that are just out there in the U.S. economy, to protect the most valuable assets they have, their ideas and the people who create them."

Pop Theory: How to Love
It's that time of the year again, my fellow AE'ers. That's right. Valentine's Day. And no one is immune or indifferent to this day of foules (or "fools," as Chaucer, in the poem first credited with associating St. Valentine as a lovers holiday, would have us believe).
While I am fascinated by studies that document the physiological aspects of love and of failing in love — a little over a year ago, a meta-analysis study conducted by a Syracuse University professor found that "failing in love only takes about a fifth of a second" and "failing in love can elicit not only the same euphoric feeling as using cocaine, but also affects intellectual areas of the brain" — I want to talk about how to love. Yes, Lil Wayne fans, the ethics of how to love.
In this column, then, I'm going to cull together some key components from various female thinkers about what I believe comprises an ethics of how to love. I'll toss in my own thoughts occasionally, as I myself am in the process of working through my own ethics of how to love, something I've begun to think about specifically after the relationship that I thought was going to last forever (well, until I died) abruptly ended Valentine's Day weekend two years ago. (Apparently, breakups are common during this time of the year — go figure.) After that debilitating breakup, I began to think more acutely about how I need to relate to myself before I relate to an other (in an intimate, sexual relationship kind of way). What I've come to discover is that this relation to my self must be grounded in self-love, compassion, and, as counter-intuitive as it sounds, a willingness to move beyond the survival instinct of self-preservation by embracing the gamut of emotions fluctuating between pain and pleasure.
"[W]e must realize that we can endure a lot of pain and pleasure for the sake of finding out who we are and what this world is…. " — Pema Chödrön, Buddhist nun (quote from The Pocket Pema Chödrön, Shambhala Pocket Classics 2008)
Ethics of how to love must consider how to establish a relationship between two people knitted together by the qualities and constituent factors of love (trust, sexual and intellectual attraction, compassion, among other factors of compatibility) without erasing the individual. The question is, how can we love someone in such as way that does not result in the subsuming of a person's individuality into some messy conglomerate of being, commonly referred to as the "we"? The ethics of love, then, must not only include an ethics of the self — of the willingness (and the ability) to make oneself open to love — but it also must take into consideration the position of the other. This consideration demands a respect for the absolute difference of that person from you. That is, an ethics of love must recognize the respective perspectives and temporalities of the "I" and "you" of the couple in an attempt to create a new entity, a new temporality, of the "we," which runs concomitant to the two individual temporalities. This is the delicate balance that must be created and maintained: how to love, how to open oneself up to another, to change, and to becoming (something new in that relation to another) without losing the self?
In other words, the ethics of how to love must overcome the desire—the persistent desire within our lesbian community (!)— to merge.
The mantra "you can't love someone else unless you love yourself first" encapsulates the key idea for not only positive self-love but also for the potential to love an other. But the ability to be in love with another not only requires self-love but the willingness for a type of destabilization of the self. The self must put aside the austere notion of self-preservation in order to be open to change. Self-preservation connotes a rigidity, a changelessness at odds with the human condition:
"When you open yourself to the continually changing, impermanent, dynamic nature of your own being and of reality, you increase your capacity to love and care about other people and your capacity to not be afraid. You're able to keep your eyes open, your heart open, and your mind open." — Pema Chödrön (The Pocket Pema Chödrön)
Accordingly, this openness will necessarily entail an amount of unavoidable pain that results from making oneself vulnerable (as even the process of making oneself vulnerable is painful because of the discomfort of revealing a part of oneself that is consciously hidden). An ethics of how to love, therefore, is motivated by desire to/for love, sustained by self-assurance and composure, and, in a way, delimited by the extent of the "risk" perceived to be taken. But this risk — not only of the process of overcoming our preserved state, but also of willing something (here, a relation with another) into the future and committing oneself to that relation ("the promise") — is essential to our capacity to be able to love. For Judith Butler, this risk, which is an element of any desired ethical relation, is what makes us human:
"ethics requires us to risk ourselves precisely at moments of unknowingness, when what forms us diverges from what lies before us, when our willingness to become undone in relation to others constitutes our chance of becoming human. To be undone by another is a primary necessity, an anguish, to be sure, but also a chance—to be addressed, claimed, bound to what is not me, but also to be moved, to be prompted to act, to address myself elsewhere, and so to vacate the self-sufficient 'I' as a kind of possession. If we speak and try to give an account from this place, we will not be irresponsible, or, if we are, we will surely be forgiven." (Giving an Account of Oneself, Fordham UP 2005)
If we are committed to the possibility of love, we have an ethical obligation to be open to taking risks and to making ourselves vulnerable. We must cast aside self-preservation in order to live and to fall in love. The heart awakens when jolted.
What must also be overcome, then, is the fear of failure — the fear that a potential relationship will fail, that love will be betrayed, or that trust will be broken — through an acknowledgement and an acceptance that failure (in love) is a very real potential. The initial risk of making oneself open to love takes on a duration as that risk becomes a constitutive part of the ethics of love: if one is in love and wishes to sustain that love through time, then it is imperative that one continues to make herself vulnerable by never ceasing to explore the self and the self's relation to the other. Considering that we are products of time — simply put, people change — it's common sense to always take account of the fact that not only do the self and the other change but, subsequently, the dynamic between the two also changes.
There is no love without risk.
When I think about the ethics of how to love, the philosopher that immediately comes to mind is Luce Irigaray, whose humble little text, i love to you: Sketch of a Possible Felicity in History (1996), offers what I feel to be the most feminist, most insightful, ethics of inter-relationality.
Even though her focus is on heterosexual relationships (because in hetero-relations the objectification of women results in the erasure of their existence once they "unite" with men, especially in marriage), I believe her thoughts about how individuals should approach each other and how they should, if they so decide to, enter into a relationship speaks across sexual preference. In the excerpts cited below (I'm loathe to paraphrase her!), Irigaray describes the actions that enable both the recognition and the respect of the "other" (the other in the relationship) as a separate being — actions and behaviors that I feel bespeak a productive, positive ethics that all couples, new and old, should live by.
On Recognition
I recognize you, thus you are not the whole; otherwise you would be too great and I would be engulfed by your greatness. You are not the whole and I am not the whole.
I recognize you, thus I may not revolve around you, I cannot encircle you or introject you…. I cannot completely identify you, even less identify with you.
I recognize you means that I cannot know you in thought or in flesh…: you are irreducible to me, just as I am to you. We may not be substituted for one another.
I recognize you means or implies respecting you as other, accepting that I draw myself to a halt before you as before something insurmountable, a mystery, a freedom that will never be mine, a subjectivity that will never be mine, a mine that will never be mine."
How "to" Love
I love to you means I maintain a relation of indirection to you. I do not subjugate you or consume you. I respect you (as irreducible)….
The "to" is the guarantor of indirection. The 'to' prevents the relation of transitivity…. The "to" is the sign of…mediation between us….
I love to you thus means: I do not take you for a direct object, nor for an indirect object by revolving around you…..
It could be that what I love in you — "to you" &mdsah; is not consciously willed by you and escapes your intentions: a certain mannerism, a particular expression, a feature on your body, your sensibility. We have to see if we can build a we on the basis of what, of you, is thus compatible with my intentions but escapes your own….
The problem of we is that of a meeting which occurs through good fortune, good fortune, as it were, or partly that of a coincidence whose necessity escapes us, but it is also or especially that of constituting a temporality: together, with, between.
This — the understanding that individuals are subjects of time, with the implicit acknowledgement that change is inherent in, and, in fact, defines, all "life" — is the challenge presented to everyone who seeks to establish and sustain an "us": how to create a temporality of an "us" that essentially consists of two distinct temporalities (ie, two distinct bodies) that will a kind of harmonious co-existence. This is important: an ethics of how to love takes account of the forces of time and the change inherent in time, but it is an ethics (as all ethics are) that presupposes a duration. Love, in this regard, has a longevity; love changes overtime but it, in whatever its machination, is that which is willed by both individuals into the future. This is a major condition of an ethics of how to love.
The image that immediately comes to my mind when thinking about this type of co-existence is — scientifically accurate or not — the double helix.
To me, the two helices represent the two distinct bodies; the colored connections between them, in turn, represent the spirit of their coming together (sexually, even) at various points in time. Within the concept of the double helix, there are moments of connection, but the two helices remain identifiably separate. The two helices seem to dance together, while moving forward in time.
Wouldn't it be lovely to dance together with someone in this way?

Please my love, don't go away
I need you so much by my side.
Forgive me if I haven't pleased you;
But believe me, I have tried.
Call me coy or apprehensive,
Inexperienced, ignorant, too,
Maybe even somewhat timid,
All these things I know are true.
If you knew the reason for it
And the fear that binds my heart
You'd understand and try to help me,
Then you'd know just where to start.
Oh the pain, how to describe it;
No words could in any language.
Oh, please come and break these chains
And free my laden heart from anguish!
Please be patient, understanding,
If you'll teach me I will learn.
I can promise I will trust you,
Please don't be so cold and stern.
You are someone I can be with
This I know deep in my heart.
I know your love can help to heal me
And can make my fears depart.
Please my love, don't go away,
We've come too far to give up now.
If you will show me how to love you
I will please you, this I vow.
You see, I've learned that pent up hurts
Can cripple and destroy a heart,
Like prison walls and heavy chains,
They keep love out right from the start.
I've learned this lesson very well,
And I'm ready to be free.
Please my love, if you will help me
We'll be happy, this you'll see.
Teach me how to love you better,
Teach me love is kind and true.
Teach me how to love completely
And let me give my love to you.

Brandon Waddell threw a complete game and the Virginia baseball team beat Vanderbilt 7-2 on Tuesday night in Omaha. With the win, UVa forces a decisive game three in the best-of-three College World Series finals.
The Cavaliers and Commodores will meet at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, with the winner taking home the national title.
"We have a lot of emotion now," head coach Brian O'Connor said after the game. "It's the last game of the year. You're playing for everything. You're playing for the opportunity to hoist that trophy and win a national championship. But I'll be surprised if our team doesn't come out with the same kind of attitude tomorrow night."
UVa out-hit Vanderbilt 13-5 in the win on Tuesday night. Kenny Towns went 3-for-5 at the plate and drove in two runs, while Joe McCarthy finished 3-for-5 in the game as well. Brandon Downes and Branden Cogswell each added two hits in the win.
Brandon Waddell pitched a complete game on the mound for UVa, striking out five while giving up five hits and two runs.
"Waddell was phenomenal tonight," said junior first baseman Mike Papi. "He mixed and matched his pitches. He hit the corners. It was awesome. And right after it was finished, I caught the last out and he was like, 'Give me that ball.' And I was extremely proud to give it to him. He did a great job for us tonight, and we're looking forward to tomorrow."
"It's awesome," added Waddell. "Not even from the standpoint of it gets the job done. But just for these guys who are with me, my teammates. We've been through so much. Through the fall, through the spring, all the hard work put in. It's really cool to come out here and execute for those guys."
Vanderbilt broke a 1-1 tie in the bottom of the fourth when John Norwood hit an RBI double to score Zander Wiel, giving Vanderbilt a 2-1 lead.
The Commodores led until the top of the sixth, when UVa struck for three runs on four hits. Derek Fisher scored Papi on a groundout to second base to tie the game, 2-2. After Towns singled to left to load the bases, junior designated hitter John La Prise grounded out to bring home Fisher. Downes then sent a triple to center, scoring Towns for a 4-2 lead.
With the bases loaded and two outs in the seventh inning, Towns singled through the left side of the infield to drive in two more runs, giving Virginia a 6-2 lead at the stretch. The 'Hoos added an insurance run in the top of the ninth on a pair of hits, with McCarthy crossing the plate on a two-out RBI single up the middle by La Prise.
The Cavaliers are now 3-0 in elimination games in the 2014 NCAA Tournament.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Courtroom cameras captured a 28-year-old waiter extending his middle finger toward a prosecutor during the Casey Anthony murder trial, and the man was promptly sentenced to six days in jail.
Matthew Bartlett also was ordered to pay a $400 fine after he was photographed making the obscene gesture toward prosecutor Jeff Ashton on Thursday.
Bartlett, who had been watching the trial from the courtroom gallery, was immediately escorted out by deputies and was brought back inside to face Judge Belvin Perry once the jury was sent home for the day. He was assigned a public defender.
Bartlett apologized for his actions during a brief hearing and was then sentenced by Perry. He was taken to jail by deputies.
Perry says Bartlett will have six months to pay his fine.

A former Mullan, Idaho, woman now living in Oregon is required to pay nearly $50,000 in restitution for concealing property during a bankruptcy filing.
The $47,927.95 restitution is the amount Vicki Jean Fehrs, 56, earned from the sale of a property in Mullan she'd transferred to her son before filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Idaho in 2006, the U.S. Attorney's Office said today.
After settling the case in 2006, Fehrs sold the property and used some of the money to buy a home in Washington state.
Fehrs failed to disclose the sale proceeds to the trustee or creditors in her bankruptcy case and was charged in U.S. District Court with contempt, a misdemeanor, for disobeying a lawful order of a bankruptcy court.
She pleaded guilty in March and was sentenced Tuesday. She'll be on probation for five years.

We'll soon need Florida's State Supreme Court to step in and decide this one, as Automotive News is reversing on its report yesterday that General Motors had outsold Toyota globally in 2007 to declare Toyota the winner today. To be fair, yesterday's report that GM had outsold Toyota was based on a Reuters source who claimed the Japanese automaker had sold 9.366 million vehicles in 2007 to GM's 9,369,524 vehicles. Toyota, however, is not scheduled to reveal the exact number of vehicles it sold worldwide in 2007 until later this month.
Regardless of the exact number of vehicles Toyota says it sold last year, Automotive News is declaring it the World's Largest Automaker in 2007 based on the fact that GM included some 516,435 sales from the Chinese Wuling brand. GM only owns 34 percent of Wuling, the majority of which is owned by SAIC. Normally automakers don't report sales for brands in which they don't own a majority interest (that's why Mazda sales are not reported by Ford), and in this case Automotive News is subtracting Wuling sales from GM's total, which drops it down to 8,885,599 units. Toyota's easily got that beat regardless of the exact figure it eventually reports.
From the cheap seats, we can't tell you how much either automaker really cares if it's crowned the World's Largest Automaker in 2007. Nor can we say whether GM including sales figures for a brand that it technically doesn't own is a deliberate play on their part or something completely innocuous and not worth reading into. We'll leave that up to you.

Microsoft details Dynamics Live CRM
Two companies are driving coverage of on demand business applications this year. Unfortunately for Salesforce.com, it isn't one of them. Microsoft and SAP, with their planned Dynamics Live CRM and A1S respectively, are getting attention because they represent a move by the software old guard into a market popularized by …
Equalism..... What you Give is what you Get ....
Newton's third law: law of reciprocal actions, also stated "All forces occur in pairs, and these two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction."
"This time, while Microsoft is clearly relying on partners to tailor Dynamics Live CRM, it's not clear how far Microsoft will require customers to go through partners."
Actually, given what is happening in Dynamics Live CRM, no wonder even Microsoft is treading carefully, for it's not clear how far Microsoft partners will require Microsoft as a customer to go through partners.
However, some customers have a very clear NEUKlearer view of the value of Microsoft partners, with them recognising in Dynamics Live CRM, the paradigm change from them being a paying customer to a Leading Service and Microsoft Driver. ..... and an AIDriver Platform/Program for Global Vistas/New World Order Programs.
There has been a Paradigm change, caused by the empowerment of communications technology, and whereas in the first phase, wealth has been created in ITs technology companies [and how very nice for just one of them to have $29bn in the bank], the second phase which uses the technology created to Server to Hardware/Software needs,[Human needs] will require repayment/reinvestment of that wealth into Partner programs..... to retain Partner Loyalty as they Drive the Future Model Forward. But that is a Win Win situation is IT not?
And that must make the Banks jittery, for IT is then entering their Marketplace ....... with a possible Vengeance. But IT is not something to worry about or fear, for IT Heralds an Age of Untold Opportunity which cannot be Denied.

text: Teaching Fellows Graduate from SF State By abhatPosted May 31, 2013 7:38 pm Maya Cook Norma Hernandez Courtesy of SFSU Communications A year after the launch of the Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program at SF State, its first set of graduates say the program has prepared them to be more informed, compassionate and powerful educators. The Noyce program provides financial support, special seminars on science and math teaching and learning, and hands-on opportunities in research and teaching for those who receive the scholarship. Funded by the National Science Foundation, the program is open to undergraduates with science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) majors, as well as STEM graduates enrolled in the University's teaching credential program. The students' experiences in the program equip them to teach at some of California's high-poverty, urban schools where a shortage of STEM educators is expected within the next decade. The 12 graduating Noyce Scholars are "teacher-inquirers" who conduct research within a classroom and bring their findings to bear in their teaching practices. "I am incredibly proud of all our current and graduated Noyce Scholars," said Larry Horvath, assistant professor of secondary education and principal investigator on the Noyce grant to SF State. "Their commitment to provide high quality math or science instruction for all students is inspirational and a valuable asset for our local school districts." The graduates include Maya Cook, a math major with an emphasis in teaching, who plans to enroll in SF State's teaching credential program. "I come from a close, big family where I was influenced to be passionate about education, cultural heritage and social justice," she said. "My ability to teach might come from my family but my desire definitely comes from the youth I've had the privilege of learning from." Cook conducted her Noyce research at June Jordan School for Equity, observing an algebra class to learn more about what high school students need to succeed in math class. The answers, she said, sometimes went beyond the classroom. One of her students, who had trouble with the materials, began to ask Cook personal questions about her family and upbringing. "When I told her my son has autism, she told me that her younger brother had speech problems as well, as a child," she said. "This experience taught me that students want to know a teacher's heart. She wanted to know who I was and why I was really there." "The improvement I saw from spending a few minutes talking blew me away," Cook said. "I hope to be able to find a respectful connection with every single one of my future students." Another of the graduates is Norma Hernandez, who discovered she wanted to be a math teacher after realizing in college "that I enjoyed doing my math homework a lot more than anything else and was willing to help out my fellow classmates with their math homework." Hernandez graduates this spring from SF State's teaching credential program after attending the University as an undergraduate. The single mother is now a student teacher at Philip & Sala Burton Academic High School for 9th grade geometry and pre-calculus. "Many of the students that I serve come from diverse cultural backgrounds and from a mixed socio economic status," Hernandez said. "They all require different needs and as a teacher I have to make the material more interactive for those special needs. I have found that staying conscious of how students are learning has enabled me to diversify my teaching style."Share this:ShareFacebook Filed under: Articles

Rhino Linings Corp. has introduced a spray-applied elastomeric coating that can be applied in a wide range of weather conditions.
Rhino Hybrid 11-50 is a polyurea/polyurethane hybrid elastomeric designed to provide both high tensile strength and good resistance to humidity and substrate moisture during application.
The coating's mix of polyurea and polyurethane chemistries makes it suitable for a wide variety of industrial and commercial applications on structural steel, geotextile, concrete, and wooden structures, the manufacturer says.
Formulation and Features
Rhino Hybrid 11-50 is a 100% solids (zero VOC), high-pressure, spray-applied coating that can be applied in a variety of weather conditions, from hot and dry climates to moderate humidity (up to 85 percent in most instances).
Rhino Hybrid 11-50 can be applied in hot, dry climates and in climates up to 85 percent humidity.
The coating's dense chemisty allows it to resist the effects of wind-driven rain, salts and most chemicals, according to Rhino.
Rhino Hybrid 11-50 sets within three to five seconds, with 55 shore D hardness, 100 percent elongation, and 2200 psi tensile strength. When used with a Rhino primer, the company says, Hybrid 11-50 will protect steel and concrete from rust, corrosion and degradation.
The coating is a 1:1 mix ratio, but is also available in a 2:1 mix ratio. Applicators may apply a minimum thickness of 1/16" (62.5 mils/1.5 mm) in a single coat multi-pass application up to 500 ml thick.
Founded in 1988, San Diego-based Rhino supplies polyurethane, polyaspartic and epoxy coatings and linings for industrial, municipal and residential applications.

Elizabeth stopped by Siobhan + Nate's wedding just as Laura finished putting the final touches on their papel picado banners and clusters of flowers in milk glass vases. Rain moved the ceremony indoors at the last minute, but the happy decorations kept things bright and cheerful!
Katie + Ryan were married in March 2014 at St. John Ultimate Villas. They belong in a magazine, no? (Don't worry I'm working on that.) Katie, Ryan and about 50 of their friends and families hopped a plane in the middle of the Polar Vortex and then caught the ferry to St. John. Twist my dang arm.
Katie and Ryan got married at the Annaberg Ruins, a sugar plantation named by the Dutchman who acquired it in 1758. For the reception, they rented a house called Villa Kalorama which means "Beautiful View" and it was the perfect setting for their modern beach shindig.
The truth is, I adore this gal. Way back in the day when I planned events at Shedd Aquarium Katie was the first person I ever managed. I must have been 24 years old, and Katie right out of college when we stole her away to the events department. She and Ryan were dating when I met her so it was only a matter of time before this day arrived.
When I left Shedd to travel and then started Anticipation Events, Katie was the first person I called when I realized I had enough clients to bring on a coordinator. She is responsible for introducing me to at least three of the people who coordinate on our team now and at she sends more clients my way than anyone.
As any good planner would, Katie realized her want to take over and direct all weekend long so she brought me on to do that for her. Katie's a modern gal and she absolutely did not want a seashell and sand themed wedding so I brought the hammer and made sure she had an elegant, cohesive look to the day without going overboard. I mean look at these surroundings.
A million years of happiness, vacations to the island, and frozen painkillers at Beach Bar for the two of you!

With each wedding we see things the guests and couple might not – here's what was happening while you were getting married!
Anissa's mom was instrumental in planning this red-white-and-blue Independence Day celebration. She arrived for a walkthrough carrying her notes, her car full of fun things. We toured the event spaces at the Newberry Library together, catching a peek at the reception hall being set up for that day's wedding.
Wedding day brought the nicest weather in weeks, but the wedding prep was just getting started! We picked up various things from the ceremony site in Washington Park: newspapers, clothing, plastic bags. That cleanup is just a fact of ceremonies in public spaces, especially in nice weather.
One of the fun things about a Newberry/Washington Square wedding is that your processional will stop traffic. Even buses and cabs will wait for a chuppah and some gorgeous bouquets.
The guests stopped for a group photo on the steps while the catering staff waited inside with drinks and appetizers at the ready.
Meanwhile, Anissa was more and more uncomfortable in her dress. We shifted the lacing, pinned the bustle to shorten the back, and after some serious talk we (gasp) took scissors to the hem.
That helped, but not enough to get this bride comfortable enough to rock her reception. So we jetted over to her hotel and scooped up a party dress for a quick change. After that she danced and danced, right up to the sparkler send-off in the park.
Congrats Anissa and Graham! We were thrilled to be part of your day and can't wait to post the professional pictures!
Dannalynn + Pablo were married in January 2014 at the Prairie Production. I absolutely love these two and have been so lucky to get to see them a ton post-wedding day. They went for a chic and glamorous wedding and they knocked it out of the park.
The snow fell just the right amount to be the most beautiful backdrop to the ceremony and the whole wedding party was dressed to impress. After some photos around the city we sent them down the aisle to begin the next chapter of their love story!
LACE BRIDAL GLOVES! SEQUIN LINENS! SAMBA DANCERS! KEGS OF PUNCH! I don't really think anything else needs to be said about how wonderfully unique and FUN this wedding was. I think the only thing better is knowing that these two are expecting a baby girl in just a few short months. I lost my mind a little bit when they told me and we couldn't have been happier to be a small part of their wedding day magic.

A little heartbroken over here these days. Our beloved #Sabrintern packed up her downtown abode and headed back to Ohio for her senior year of college. It physically pained me to write that, how absolutely amazing does that sound? One more senior year for me would be a dream come true. I went all "it goes by so fast" and "cherish every moment" and "seriously, never leave" on her at our last meeting, maybe sounding a little desperate after a 17 day stint with no days off and 14 hour work days. It's all good Sabrina, just like you. As my last demand (nope just kidding, she's still finishing a few things for me before school starts next week) I asked her to write a blog post on being our first ever intern.
The one question every single 21 year-old college senior dreads to hear is, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" As always my response is, "I'm actually not sure yet." Which usually is conveniently followed by, "Well what do you truly enjoy doing?" No matter who you are or what profession you are currently in, you have had the same conversation at least once in your lifetime.
Before this summer in Chicago I'd always jokingly told people, "I want to find a profession that involves attending parties and being surrounded by enormous groups of people I've never met." This "joke response" actually became a reality when I was given the opportunity to intern at a wonderful event planning company known as, Anticipation Events. [Editor's note: it was an unpaid internship, I didn't pay her to say that.] I know what you are thinking, how glamorous it must be to be an event planner! Event planning definitely does have its glamorous moments, but those usually come after hard work and very long days.
One month in and five events down, I already knew I had found something I truly enjoyed doing. Yes, I did have to put beautifully packaged chocolates in front of each place setting (I mean someone's got to do it), but I was also able to see how to interact with a client, and ultimately how to produce a smooth run of show.
After the first few weeks, I was able to not only observe every aspect of event coordination, but also participate in it. Every single day as an intern consisted of something new. I was given the major task of reconstructing and organizing the company website, as well as updating social media sites, such as Facebook and Twitter. Within the fast-paced world of the event planning industry, I've learned how to manage multiple projects at once, which has taught me to always be raring and ready to go! Being able to gallivant throughout the wonderful city of Chicago to various venues has definitely been the most rewarding part. It's very rare to see how all of your hard work pays off in the end, and attending events is the most fulfilling feeling. Above all, I was able to grasp the wide range of skills you have to possess in order to succeed in this industry.
As you sit and read this post, maybe you're wondering why I took the time to write this? I wrote all of this to say one simple thing: If you live in Chicago (or actually, even if you don't…I'm from Michigan) and you want an incredible internship experience working under people who, not only hold their company's integrity as a high priority, but are deeply interested in your own success, then Anticipation Events is THE place to go!
-Sabrina (AKA Sabrintern)
COME BACK! We miss you already! And we realized we can't live without a #sabrintern. If you're looking for a fall event planning internship, give us a shout. We can't replace her and there are some big shoes to fill, but we're looking for another perfect match. Send your resume, favorite candy and a little about yourself to elizabeth (at) anticipationevents (dot) com. We pay in Nutella coffee from Ipsento, lots of real life event experience and hugs.

it still bothers me that they switched after the last lockout
plus I think the red sweaters are more intimidating on the road
I wonder if the players have a preference?
Posted 26 September 2012 - 08:58 PM
Yeah, I have noticed some of the white outs in the league have seemed kind of silly after the switch. The home team is wearing dark now and the all the fans and the away team are wearing white. See Phoenix's playoff run last year.
I think it'd be cool to see a whiteout at the Joe again. Red-out doesn't seem as intimidating.
To be honest, it doesn't matter much to me when the team wears each color. I have always thought our white jersey looked a bit cooler than the red, so I guess it would be nice to see those at home. For those of you who own both jersey colors, do you have a tradition when it comes to wearing them at games or when watching at home? In the playoffs, I usually match up with the team but if we fall into a bad streak, I'll blame the jersey color and switch to the opposite until we're back on track. That's just my superstition.

What about Red EVERY game? Canadiens, Coyotes, and Panthers are only teams with color scheme issues. So Wings wear whites 2 or 3 games a year. Ever think of that?
i think nhl rules state that each team must have a home and road jersey

Everyone wears white sometimes. Not everyone has the privilege of wearing RED.
*yes, I realize that we don't have a monopoly on red, but you get the idea.
