2 New Yorkers in Boston in September...
- BrookBoy Aug 14, 2007 06:33 PM
...and we'd love to hear your thoughts on where we should look for the best seafood (and other dishes).
Some background: my wife and I love visiting Boston, try to do so at least once a year. We forgive Beantowners for rooting for rooting for that team (I think it's called the Red Sox, or something like that), us being longtime diehard Yankee fans.
But I digress...
We visited last year, posted a lengthy recap of our visit (http://www.chowhound.com/topics/322341) and got some good feedback, and some criticism that we hadn't posted earlier to ask for recommendations. We also got some criticism for having gone to chains and concentrating on Back Bay.
Fact is, we stay in Back Bay (this time at the Hilton), and we don't have a car, and we're ignorant NYers, so we use Zagat's and Open Table and things like that. We're also of an age, so long walks are, hmmm, not as enticing as they used to be. But we don't mind public transportation (if well explained) and/or using cabs.
So we're gonna be at the Hilton in Back Bay the weekend of 9/21, again with no car, but a lot of desire to try Boston's best.
We'd love to hear what Boston Chowhounders recommend for great seafood. Last year we went to B&G (actually we visit B&G every time we go to Boston), McCormick & Schmick, Legal, Atlantic, Skipjack's, Turner. We concentrated on lobster, and it's pretty amazing what differences we experienced (read the report).
We'd particularly like to hear about the Italian section in North End, don't know anything about it, love to try one or two places during our visit, especially places that serve up great Italian seafood.
If you read the other post you'll see that we were really disappointed in Union Oyster House on our last visit. Any current thoughts on it now?
We're open to any other suggestions as well, love to hear what you friendly Bostonites recommend.
Many thanks in advance...
Giaccomos in the North End does delicious Italian Seafood. I love their fried calamari and any of their seafood dishes over pasta has always been good. Some Chowhounders may disagree with me but I love Jasper White's Summer Shack. It's casual and the food is fun and wonderful. The Rhode Island Spicy Calamari is delish. I have had lobster there too and it is great especially the pan roasted lobster. The thing that is so great about Boston and the Surrounding area is that we all know how to cook lobster. Whether you are a chef or home cook we all know how to make lobster properly. It's in our blood. I guess what I am saying is that where ever you go and get lobster you can bet that it will be good! Regina pizza is even better than pizza in NYC and I Loove NYC. Great Bay is another lovely seafood restaurant that serves seafood very artfully prepared and it is very tasty. Even though Quincy Market can be touristy it is still nice and will give you a nice flavor of Boston. Cross the street and you will be on the Waterfront and you can also walk to the North End. Eat some raw oysters and clams while you are here. Legal does great raw bar and their sangria is good too.
re: hoplover
Hi Hop,
Thanks for the suggestions, Giacomo's sounds great.
We know of Jasper White (doesn't everyone?), so we'd be up for trying his place. He's been the acknowledged lobster master for quite some time...
We know Quincy Market quite well. Agree that it can be touristy (well, we are tourists, after all), but it does have a lot of variety and there are a lot of places to stop and have a libation, including those great Irish bars around the perimeter.
Thanks again...
re: BrookBoy
Guess I'll play the role of designated naysayer regarding Summer Shack. There have been a couple positive recent reports here about lobsters and lobster rolls, but my experience has universally been poor food-wise there, with sky-high prices and airplane hanger level noise to boot. I'd tread with caution if you go. Both B&G Oysters and Neptune Oyster run rings around this place, in my experience.
Thanks for being so thorough, it really helps.
I remember your post from last summer and thought that the Limo Liner sounded like a pretty cool experience.
Stick with your regular B&G outing but I might suggest that you also try Neptune Oyster in the North End as a foil. They don't take reservations and it does get very crowded, so if it is possible try to make it an early dinner option, go for that. This would fit the bill for seafood in the North End. They also have a great warm and cold version of a lobster roll, but again, get there early as they have been running out during peak dinner service. By the way forget about the Oyster House unless it is for raw bar only downstairs.
While I have not had a first hand experience I recently heard from a good friend that Mare, also in the North End is very nice (and pricey) seafood option. I would second Hop's suggestion of Giacamos, but again you are faced with no reservations an the possibility of a very long wait
Keeping within the back bay if you are willing to part with some cash for a fine dining experience there is Uni and Clio, both in the Elliot hotel.
For pizza Regina is great but I prefer Ernestos on Salem street, but I don't want to enter into that holy war conversation, especially w/ a New Yorker.
For good French Bistro fare there is Petit Robert Bistro, most entrees under 20 bucks (Takes reservations) and for a similarly good value but american fare there is Franklin Cafe in the south end (no reservations), entrees under 20.
One of my favorites is Eastern Standard for great meals and they feature a good amount of offal and charcuterie and reasonably priced. They also have good talent behind the bar.( Best to visit when the Sox are not playing home due to its proximity to the stadium).
We (Boston) have a very respectable China Town and if any asian cuisines pique your interest we can probably help there too.
Good Luck and Happy Eating

re: Food4Thought
Hi Food,
Thanks for such a detailed and thoughtful reply. We'll definitely give at least some of your suggestions a shot. It'll be a challenge to get thru them all in our 3 days, but that's a challenge we like.
Too bad about the Union Oyster House. My wife and I have been going there for probably 25 years, each time we hit Boston. It had become a kind of ritual for us. We loved to get there in time for the homemade and free potato chips they bring out around 4 PM — one measly serving each, but it made you feel special. But the last two times we went, we were really disappointed, even in the oysters, which were served on a platter, no ice, not at all appealing. Well, you can only hope that management will come to their senses sooner rather than later...
And thanks for your suggestion about Chinatown. We go to the various Chinatowns in NYC a lot, also in SF when we're fortunate enough to travel there, but we never think of it in Boston. Maybe we'll try it this time...
And we're doing the Limo Liner again...
You might also try the Daily Catch in the north end for Italian seafood but keep in mind it's tiny with no bathroom. Those of us who like Sonsie are in the minority but it's a 5 min walk from your hotel and I think they do "new American" well for a pretty good price. The place can be too sceney but I just roll with it. On Boylston St. is Chili Duck if you want a quick Thai meal. Parish cafe on Boylston St. by the Public Garden is good for interesting sandwiches created by the chefs around town. If you take the #1 or CT1 bus over the bridge into Cambridge, you can try Central Kitchen, Salts, Rendezvous or Green St. in Central Sq. All have a few seafood choices on the menu and are very good in general.
And I'm sorry the Jets haven't won a Superbowl in hmm, how long?
re: Joanie
Hi Joanie,
Thanks for the suggestions, especially for the ones close by. I like the name Chili Duck enough that I'd want to try it, but I'm not sure about my wife.
Re the Jets, I had to laugh at your comment. But you gotta admit, when they did win their Super Bowl, it REALLY got everyone's attention...
Thanks again for the nifty suggestions...
re: BrookBoy
Chili Duck is a great place. It's bright and cheery, the staff is friendly and they are very accomodating. You can go with their authentic Thai menu and have more of a fiery experience or go with the milder every day menu.
I'm glad to hear that you hit B&G when you visit as it's one of my favorites! I agree with the Giacomo's recommendations but there is also one in the South End that actually does take reservations. For North End Italian, not necessarily seafood, my favorite is Prezza. They have a great bar, take reservations and actually serve desserts which many North End restaurants do not do. There are many Prezza posts on the board that you can check out.
24 Fleet St., Boston, MA 02113
Giacomo's Restaurant
431 Columbus Ave, Boston, MA 02116
re: lissy
Yep, I was gonna mention the Giacomo's in the South End. Easily walkable from your hotel in Back Bay and great if you have a night where you want something good, basic red sauce, cheap and casual. It's good --but nothing truly earth shattering so if you have a limited number of meals and want them all to be special, I probably wouldn't put this on your list. Just depends what you're looking for.
If you' ve been going to the Union Oyster House, for that old "Boston" atmosphere, you might want to try Durgin Park, at Quincy Market instead. While there's been a lot of chatter here about it recently, I'm personally a fan of the place. Especially for tourists, it's a great way to experience old fashioned Yankee cooking. They also have an excellent Prime Rib, and very good seafood as well. It's also one of the oldest restaurants in the country, probably having started just after Union Oyster House opened.
If you have an interested in seafood, and haven't been to East Coast Grill yet, you absolutely must do that on this trip. No more excuses.
You will need to get a cab, however.
You might want to try the better Chinatown seafood joints, like Peach Farm and Lucky House.
East Coast Grill and Raw Bar
1271 Cambridge St, Cambridge, MA 02139
re: Alcachofa
Agree completely w/East Coast Grill. If you haven't tried it yet you should. Great food, well made cocktails, all served in a relaxed, casual atmosphere. One of my favorite spots in Boston (actually, Cambridge.) An added bonus --Christina's ice cream right next door. We're known for our ice cream here in Boston and Christina's is one of the (if not THE) best. A must visit after ECG.
re: twentyoystahs
We're Boston visitors (staying in Cambridge this week), and tried ECG for the first time a couple of nights ago. This place is definitely cute and the food (seafood and bbq!) is quite good (not exceptional). Atmosophere is cheery, happy, busy... but we found the experienced lacked something. We like a meal where we can hang out and linger, but the bright and breeze-y vibe here had us in and out within an hour (not like us). Food was good, but not great. Maybe for lunch, if you're in Cambridge anyhow, but I would be disappointed if we'd made this a destination.
I would second Eastern Standard Kitchen... more "adult" scene and I think they do have a fairly good raw bar. I am curious to try Great Bay for seafood (also at the Hotel Commonwealth). Reports on CH sound good, but I can't give a first hand account as yet.
re: Rabbit
If memory serves, East Coast Grill is not open for lunch.
re: bachslunch
Only brunch on the weekend.
Rabbit, it is certainly not a sedate environment. But East Coast Grill is the first choice for seafood for many people in the Boston area. Tastes differ, but it would be a huge mistake to steer anyone away from there without trying, especially someone as into seafood as BrookBoy seems to be.
re: Alcachofa
For Chinatown Seafood joint, I'd also add New Jumbo (for fried stuff). Potluck Cafe is in the same league, but it's foochow cuisine and there's lots of that in Manhattan's Chinatown.
I'll second the suggestions you're getting on the North End: Prezza for upscale Northern Italian, Giacomo's and Daily Catch for Southern Italian seafood, and Pizzeria Regina for pizza (Ernesto's is quite good and will provide slices -- big ones -- but is a step below Regina's). Other good choices would be Antico Forno and Maurizio's for sit down Southern Italian, Galleria Umberto for super cheap and excellent So. It. comfort food (lunchtime only), and Mamma Maria for No. It. upscale.
If you really want to blow the bankroll on an upscale meal in your neighborhood, L'Espalier and Clio are great options, arguably the two best restaurants in the city.
For Chinatown options, check out this recent thread:
And yes, Union Oyster House is still lousy unless you stick to raw oysters and beer at the bar. I'll strongly second Durgin Park as an alternative.
If you are staying in Back Bay it would be a crime not to dine at Sorellina. Beautiful space, excellent service, delicious food. Not seafood-centric but have had several seafood preparations there which were delicious. Glad you liked Legal- love their oysters, sole sauteed with lemon and capers, crab cakes etc.
re: emilief
Sorellina is fantastic. It breaks the bank but well worth it. It's without a doubt the most sophisticated Italian food in Boston. I have been twice and I have felt well taken care of there. Even though it's a higher end restaurant I have not felt it to be pretentious. Last time I went I noticed that people were dressed in whatever somewhat nice clothes they had. It was not a fashion show but people who wanted a killer dinner. Giacomos has two locations. South End and the north End BTW. Have a wonderful time.

iPad Mini VS iPad 2 VS iPad 4 VS iPhone 5 – The iPad Mini was launched on 22nd November to much fanfare, but the lack of Retina display came as much disappointed. It was pre-predicted that the iPad Mini won't be following Apple's trend of releasing each device with a Retina display to keep the price down but still it came as a disappointment. It was clear that including a retina display would have increased the already hefty $329 price tag. So does that lack of pixels really results in a bad experience? iMore has just uploaded their display comparison of the iPad 2 (132 ppi), iPad mini (163 ppi), iPad 4(264 ppi), and iPhone 5 (326 ppi) below, (more…)
iPad 4th-Gen Twice As Fast As iPad 3rd-Gen
iPad 4th-Gen Twice as Fast As iPad 3rd-Gen – So you just bought a 3rd-Generation iPad this year and don't want to upgrade to a 4th-Gen one because there is not much difference in them? Well think again, because the benchmarks of the 4th-Generation iPad have proven that wrong and you may want to reconsider your decision of buying the latest iPad just for the sheer amount of horsepower it has. This time even Apple has outdone itself. (more…)
iPhone 5 VS. iPhone 4S, 4 and New iPad Performance Tests
iPhone 5 VS. iPhone 4S, 4 and New iPad Performance Tests – No doubt, iPhone 5 is the fastest Smartphone available in the market; it easily outscores the Android King, Samsung Galaxy S3 in benchmarks, durability and drop test. How it can be compared with other iPhones and new iPad. iPhone doesn't simple outscored other smartphones in benchmarks and speed test but it also provides real-life amazing speed which is pretty fast as compared to iPhone 4, 4S and even the new iPad.
The folks at iMore have posted a video of Comparison of iPhone 5 with iPhone 4, 4S and the new iPad. They have run different performance tests for all the devices. The main point is that how we can say a device is faster? There are certain things which show the performance of the device such as Boot Test, Startup speed test and Multitasking test. They have performed all of these tests to show the exact comparison of these devices.
The first test is the boot test, iPhone 5 clearly boots up faster, but iPad really disappoints because it has A5x Chip processor and still take much time to boot up. The next thing is Geekbench test in which iPhone 5 outscores all devices with a large margin. New iPad again couldn't score even the half of what iPhone 5 did. For more details, please watch the video embedded below and don't forget to share your thoughts about the latest iPhone 5 speed. (more…)

Lifestyle Changes That Lead to a Leaner, Healthier You
Ashley Chipps, BS, Wellness Coach with Deaconess Employee Wellness Program
I want to help anyone reading this today know more about how eating habits and activity levels can impact weight loss. The first point to make, which is what the rest of this conversation will be about, is that weight loss is a matter of taking in fewer calories than you use during the day. It's sort of like a bank account: In this case, you want to overdraw!
To lose one pound of fat, you need to have a deficit of 3,500 calories. (Or to gain a pound of fat, you have to consume 3,500 more than what you burn off.) So it's really about the math. However, this math is the math of daily living….small choices that can make a big difference.
Weight loss is best achieved by making specific, deliberate changes to how you eat and how much you move. To make these types of changes, you have to be (or become) a planner. In today's busy life, we all are juggling jobs, family needs and other activities. Honestly, that busyness is part of the reason many people struggle with their weight…. Eating too many convenience foods, and not fitting in exercise. So to lose weight, it has to be a decision you make, and then you have to prioritize around it in your life. For example, each weekend, you may need to spend some time planning your meals and making physical activity "appointments."
Meal Planning
For me, planning ahead looks a little like this:
For breakfast, it's a good idea to decide on a few regular "go-tos" that are healthy and balanced. For me, that can be a breakfast shake, Greek yogurt, protein bars, etc. that you can take and go.
If you work full-time, you can save yourself a lot of money and calories by packing your lunch as many days as possible. On the weekends, you can take a bag of baby carrots and portion them out into five little baggies and put them in a basket in the fridge. You can do the same with other advance prep, such as making a low-fat tuna salad and putting it in little containers, or hard boiling some eggs. Then each morning you just grab your individual portions and go out the door.
For dinner time, you can do the same planning on weekends. Make a menu, get your groceries, and if you have time, do some advance prep. Whether it's pre-chopping vegetables (although I admit I'm a fan of the steam bags for convenience), or going ahead and grilling/broiling several chicken breasts, you can be ready to cook when you get home in the evening, which often leads to better choices.
Planning is key. In the fast/convenient food world we live in, it can be the difference between eating healthy for weight loss, or grabbing what is available right then.
Physical Activity Planning
Planning also applies to physical activity. Exercise, in many ways, requires even more planning than healthy eating because there IS no "back-up." For example, if you fail to plan a healthy dinner, you can go to Subway and get a light sandwich, or even get a healthy salad somewhere. But there is no "pre-packaged" back-up plan for exercise. You have to do it.
First, consider your exercise options. Does your workplace have a gym (like we do here at Deaconess)? Where is the closest gym? Do you even need a gym? Or do you prefer to just tie on your sneakers and go for a vigorous walk or even a run? Figure out what kind of exercise you want to do, and where you need to do it.
Second, figure out what help you need from other people. In my case, I have to arrange with my husband and/or babysitter to be able to exercise, because I have a 1-year-old at home. Do you need to arrange a carpool with someone for your older kids' activity, so that you can work out right after work, but then you pick the kids up when their activity is over?
Third, you have to write it on your schedule. If you keep an agenda—daily, weekly, etc.—write in your exercise times. And don't just think of a blocked hour of alone time. If the weekend is scheduled to have pretty weather, then schedule a Saturday morning bike ride or walk on the Greenway or riverfront with your family.
That leads me to another point: make exercise as much of a family activity as possible. Everyone benefits, and you're setting a healthy example for your kids. It's a great way to spend quality time together, too.
In thinking through helpful tips, I want to touch on something that many of my past and present clients struggle with: cutting calories and eating healthy while not feeling hungry all the time. Hunger is the enemy of weight loss. You're far less likely to make a good eating choice if you're ravenous. So how can you help prevent feeling hungry all the time while still cutting calories?
Protein and fiber are your best go-tos for feeling full. You're much more likely to feel full after eating a hard-boiled egg and an apple than you are after eating the same number of calories worth of a donut.
Whole grain is always your best option over refined grains. But don't make the mistake of only eating grains alone with no protein—that's still a lot of carbohydrates, and protein is what helps you feel full longest and gives you ongoing stable blood sugar.
There's a theory called volumetrics, which is essentially that your stomach will tell your brain when you're full, so you need to fill it with low-calorie foods. So drink a full glass of water before you eat anything, and then make vegetables your largest portion of food. The vegetables are full of fiber, and take up space. (And by this, I mean colorful—usually green—vegetables, such as broccoli, red/green peppers, carrots, Brussels sprouts, summer squash, etc. Potatoes, corn, etc. are starchy and won't have the effect I'm talking about.)
Another good option is to eat small meals frequently. Eating protein, complete carbs and a little bit of healthy fat 5-6 times per day can keep you from feeling hungry. (And with the theory of volumetrics, your stomach will start to feel full with less food over time.)

I have a bad low back (L5 & S1) problem. Been to a doctor, probably need surgery at some point to repair. I get sevear pain down left leg with very little walking time (like 2 blocks). So does one loose weight other than changing your eating habits? Doing that now..the eating part.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The Senate sponsor of a proposal to remove limits on how many toll roads or bridges could be built in Tennessee has withdrawn the bill from consideration for the year.
Sen. Tommy Kilby, a Wartburg Democrat, did not explain to the Senate Transportation Committee why he was withdrawing the bill on Wednesday.
A pilot program passed last year calls for one toll road and one toll bridge project.
Last month the House approved the companion measure, with supporters saying it's needed to jump-start infrastructure projects amid dwindling federal road money.
A week before that, state transportation officials were notified that they are not getting $66 million from promised federal money for road work. The federal government has cut nearly a quarter-billion dollars from Tennessee's expected road money since 2005.

We had an afternoon in Woodstock, so we stopped in to the store. The owner was helpful, the variety of yarns available was very good. The owner even had a great suggestion where we could take the dog for a walk nearby (her dog sometimes accompanies her to the store, which I think is great).
"Spinning supplies" is not checked on the store profile, but the store did have a bit of spinning fiber.

Very nice yarn store in an extremely pretty town. Nice owners, good selection.

We visited this store while traveling through Vermont on vacation. It was pouring rain outside, but dry and cozy inside. There was a good selection of yarns, various fibers and weights, and the prices seemed reasonable. There was a table and chairs for knitters to work at in the center of the store.

A TV report about eating on a Food Stamp budget compelled UC Cooperative Extension nutrition program manager Kathleen Nolan into action.
"The reporter was reaching for a processed meal in a box, and I was yelling at the television, 'You can't buy anything in a box!'" Nolan said. "The reporter couldn't survive on the budget, but I know that I can."
To prove her point, Nolan decided to take her own Food Stamp challenge. For the month of January, she is eating healthy on a Food Stamp budget and blogging about her diet on Facebook. Nolan writes about menus, shopping lists, recipes,...

Have you resolved to lose 5 pounds in 2011?
Join the club.
Losing a little weight is a perennial goal on many people's New Year's resolution list … and failure to achieve that goal is the primary reason why we keep resolving to lose that 5 pounds year after year.
Judith S. Stern, UC Davis nutrition professor and author of hundreds of articles on obesity and nutrition, says that setting a weight-loss goal is a good thing. "If you don't make a resolution, you don't have something to reach for. Resolutions are about hope."
But no one said it was going to be easy. "Losing weight is even harder than quitting smoking. You can always not smoke,...

A wonderful example of community coming together in partnership to grow good food has taken root in Oxnard, Calif.
Last year, in an effort to reduce costs while improving the taste and nutrition of meals, the Senior Nutrition Program began growing their own tomatoes. They set up their garden with the help of UC Master Gardeners on a quarter-acre behind the Juvenile Justice Center.
The program began when the County of Ventura Area Agency on Aging, which serves over 200,000 meals annually through senior nutrition programs, collaborated with the Probation Agency Juvenile Justice Facility staff to create this positive program. As word of the project has spread many business and organizations have come forward to donate...

How can you enjoy holiday eating without going overboard? Linda Gigliotti, director of UC Irvine's Weight Management Program, offers 10 tips to prevent packing on extra pounds:
- Make yourself a "health calendar." Map out your food choices each week and schedule regular exercise. The calendar can help you prepare for a proliferation of parties and survive the Halloween-to-Super Bowl "national eating season," said Gigliotti, a registered dietitian. "The best four-letter word to use is plan. Stop, take a deep breath and anticipate the situation."

December is a very festive time of year. For most of us, it's an entire month filled with holiday parties, family gatherings and other social events, typically centered around one thing - food. It's easy to get caught up in the excitement of the holiday season. This is the time of year when tempting holiday treats trump our usual sensible meals, healthy habits and workout regimens. Stress can also play a prominent role during the holidays as many of us get overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of the season and forgo our normal routines. We often justify an entire month of overindulging our sweet tooth and allowing ourselves second (and third!) helpings by vowing to eat healthy and exercise it off in the New Year. What can be...

Fox TV's Bill O'Reilly to chronicle crucifixion of Jesus in book
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Television host and author Bill O'Reilly, whose previous books were about the assassinations of two U.S. presidents, will tackle another famous death in his upcoming work, "Killing Jesus: A History," his publisher said on Thursday.
The Fox News television network anchor will write the book, which will be published on September 24, with Martin Dugard, the co-author of "Killing Kennedy: The End of Camelot" and "Killing Lincoln: The Shocking Assassination That Changed America Forever."
The book will chronicle the political and historical events leading up to the crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth and the impact of his death, according to the publisher Henry Holt and Company.
"It is inarguable that Jesus was the most influential man to have ever lived," Stephen Rubin, Henry Holt's president and publisher, said in a statement. "I can think of no one better than Bill O'Reilly to write this story in a way that has never been told before."
O'Reilly revealed some hints about the book during his television show on Wednesday.
"My co-author, Martin Dugard, and I have uncovered some amazing things about the execution of Jesus of Nazareth and how it all tied into Roman power," he said.
O'Reilly was accused of including factual inaccuracies in "Killing Lincoln." The author said the book contained only minor errors that were corrected.

Gonzalez and Vega died at the scene. Villa was flown to Delray Medical Center. She was listed in fair condition.
A motive for the shooting still hasn't been released.

Grand Alliance's new service in full operation
NYK Procyon begins calling Ceres Paragon TerminalOn August 6, the 63,179-gross-ton NYK Procyon, assigned by NYK to the Grand Alliance's newly inaugurated Loop F service to Europe, paid her first visit to a terminal of the Ceres Paragon Terminals B.V., an affiliate of NYK, in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. This marked the first regular call by a large-sized containership not only for the Ceres Paragon Terminal, but also for Amsterdam Port.
To celebrate NYK Procyon's visit, a welcome ceremony was held by the quarters concerned of Amsterdam City. At the ceremony, Mr. Marin Marohnic, captain of the vessel, was presented with a plaque commemorating her first call at the port by Director Hans Gerson of the city's Port and Harbor Bureau.
The Grand Alliance plans to have its Loop A service to Europe also pay a regular visit to the Ceres Paragon Terminal from September in addition to Loop F. This terminal is counted upon to contribute to making up for a shortage of terminal capacity due to fast-increasing European cargoes and alleviating the resulting port congestion and ship delays in the European region.
Details of Ceres Paragon Terminals B.V.
Number of berths: 3
Quay length: 400'57m (Indented Berth) 615m (Marginal Berth)

Bowflex SelectTech 552 Review
Bowflex have been among the business leaders in regards to manufacturing top quality home gym gear.
The Bowflex SelectTech 552 flexible dumbbells are an excellent little bit of kit.
These weights really are unbelievably easy to use. Each dumbbell in the set joins 15 differing weights, from 5 pounds up to 52.2 pounds, and fixes in practical 2.5 pound increments.
Furthermore, Bowflex chuck in a free workout DVD and free guarantee with package!
The downside is there is no stand, and the weights probably aren't suited to those wanting to lift heavy weights.
The BowFlex SelectTech 552 is available from $299 on Amazon.
Static Contraction
Static Contraction is where you hold a weight in a specific position for a few seconds. The idea behind the exercise is that the muscle is forced to work when fully contracted and holding as much weight as possible.
Essentially static contraction means less movement, more weight. Some will even remove movement altogether and hold weight in specific positions.
Static Contraction exercises work well with isolation and machine exercises.
Leg Press
A leg press is an exercise through which one pushses a weight away from themselves with their legs. A leg press is also a piece of equipment used to perform the exercise.
The leg press exercise is a brilliant way to gain muscle mass and is useful as it allows you to lift more weight than other exercises.
Static Contraction can be used to create a fantastic leg press exercise which can really help build muscle fast.

For the following part of his Book of Common Prayer, Cranmer drew on a number of medieval sources and yet composed something greater than their sum.
The introduction was said by the (vocational priest rather than the congregation of all believers as priests) priest, the prayer by the "whole congregation kneeling..."
"Dearly beloved brethren, the Scripture moveth us in sundry places to acknowledge and confess our manifold sins and wickedness, and that we should not dissemble nor cloke them before the face of Almighty God our heavenly Father, but confess them with an humble, lowly, penitent, and obedient heart--to the end that we may obtain forgiveness of the same by his infinite goodness and mercy. And although we ought at all times humbly to knowledge our sins before God, yet ought we most chiefly so to do when we assemble and meet together, to render thanks for the great benefits that we have received at his hands, to set forth his most worthy praise, to hear his most holy Word, and to ask those things which be requisite and necessary, as well for the body as the soul. Wherefore I pray and beseech you, as many as be here present, to accompany me with a pure heart and humble voice unto the throne of the heavenly grace, saying after me:"
Congregation, on knees, together:
"Almighty and most merciful Father, we have erred and strayed from thy ways, like lost sheep. We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts. We have offended against thy holy laws. We have left undone those things which we ought to have done, and we have done those things which we ought not to have done, and there is no health in us. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us miserable offenders. Spare thou them, O God, which confess their faults. Restore thou them that be penitent, according to thy promises declared unto mankind, in Christ Jesus our Lord. And grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake, that we may hereafter live a godly, righteous, and sober life, to the glory of thy holy name. Amen.

Risky Business: Corruption, Fraud, Terrorism, and Other Threats to Global Business. By Stuart Poole-Robb and Alan Bailey; published by Kogan Page, 44(0) 1903 828 503 (phone), www.kogan-page.co.uk (Web); 320 pages; £16.99.
Current headlines are largely devoted to the war on terrorism, but there has been another war going on for much longer: the commercial war. That war involves the multiple security risks associated with doing business.
In Risky Business, Stuart Poole-Robb and Alan Bailey explain how the risks associated with this war are identified and evaluated. Their skillful use of case studies, scenarios, and charts and graphs helps put into perspective the risks of doing business in nondomestic markets.
Their book is essentially an overview of how the Merchant International Group, Poole-Robb's corporate intelligence firm, assigns risk to nondomestic markets. It uses a method called Gray Area Dynamics, which the authors describe as a collection of passive and nonpassive, legal and illegal risk factors not generally evaluated in conventional due diligence investigations and risk assessments.
Of particular interest to corporate security managers with businesses in hotspots overseas are chapters 15 through 19. This section examines the major areas of instability in the world--the Middle East, Latin America, and Asia Pacific--forecasts likely scenarios in those regions and assigns a probability level to each scenario. The authors then predict what the likely outcome of each scenario will be. Readers should keep in mind that this book is a reprint of a revised 2003 edition, so some of its information is almost two years old.
Risky Business makes the case that security directors must fully explain the risk picture to corporate decision makers. Many examples in the book show how companies leaped into what appeared to be lucrative business deals before adequately assessing the risks. These lively case studies highlight the importance of due diligence.
One negative note: On a few occasions, the book reads like an advertisement for the Merchant International Group. To their credit, however, the authors completely describe their Gray Area Dynamics method, which makes it possible for security executives to incorporate elements of that well-developed tool into their own assessments.
Reviewer: John A. Cote, CPP, is principal consultant with Security Solutions, Kladno, in the Czech Republic. He recently received his masters in strategic intelligence with an emphasis in terrorism studies. He is the Czech Republic chapter director for the International Association for Counterterrorism and Security Professionals and a member of ASIS International.

Ukraine names Yatsenyuk prime minister
Thursday, February 27, 2014
KIEV, Ukraine - The Verkhovna Rada - Ukraine's parliament - has approved opposition leader Arseniy Yatsenyuk as prime minister.
Earlier in the day, Yatsenyuk challenged Yanukovych's claim that he remained the country's legitimate president. Yatsenyuk told reporters Yanukovych is a criminal, wanted on charges of murder and crimes against humanity, referring to the dozens of protesters killed during three-months of protests.
European diplomats are headed to Ukraine for meetings with the new government and acting President Oleksandr Turchynov.
Meanwhile, up to one thousand pro-Russian demonstrators in the Crimean capital of Simferopol pushed their way past a police barricade to hold a demonstration in front of the Crimean parliament.
Other pro-Russian demonstrators were seen arriving in the city from Sevastopol to join the protests. The groups demand a referendum to decide Crimea's future.
Crimean MPs have re-entered the parliament building after it was occupied on Thursday.
The political situation in Crimea has been tense since Ukraine was hit by large-scale protests that forced Yanukovych to flee Kiev after dozens were killed in street protests.
Yanukovych's policy to align the country with Russia was met with widespread opposition in November 2013 after he scrapped a major trade and association deal with the European Union.

News and Notes
By George Kane
I never expected God to be an issue at the Democratic National Convention. Christian conservatives are obviously a core constituency of the Republicans, and their stamp was unmistakable on everything that transpired at the Republican National Convention a week earlier. I expected the Democrats to make routine obeisance to religion that should infuriate everyone who values the separation of church and state, which would, however, attract no particular notice.
To my surprise, on Wednesday morning the networks reported that the platform had been released with no reference to God or to Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. This became the exclusive focus of the Jay Sekulow Live radio program that morning, and Republicans were quick to spin it as proof that Democrats were out of touch with the America's religious core. It was a tempest in a tea pot, as party platforms are nothing more than appeals to special interest groups. That no platform ever mentions the separation of church and state, or expresses respect for atheists, only proves our political insignificance.Add a comment

USA, 2008 (MIFF 2009, Arts and Minds)
Director: Tom Donahue, Paul Hasegawa-Overacker
"Far too outlandish to be believable - except it's all true." - Wired
What happens when the sceptical outsider becomes romantically involved with the ultimate insider? For Paul H-O, the fly in the ointment of the New York art scene of the 80s and 90s, his entanglement with the much lauded and press-shy artist Cindy Sherman led to a severe case of 'famous-girlfriend syndrome'.
H-O gives a fascinating insight into what it's like living in the shadow of a well-known partner in this bittersweet, behind-the-scenes glimpse of a blossoming relationship cracking under the weight of a brittle male ego.

Praise be to Treesus
The Orlando Sentinel is withholding the name and address of "Kim," the "not particularly religious" woman who discovered this tree stump on her Central Florida property last week that bears the image of Jesus Christ. Kim doesn't want her yard to turn into some kind of mecca, but come on. If Treesus calls to us, we will find him, GPS be damned.
Praise be to Treesus and all his barkly offerings.

Politicians in Congress should serve you, not rich contributors
'Fair Elections' reform would allow public servants like those in Congress to focus on policy, not fundraising.
Concord, N.H.; and Washington
Call us old-fashioned sentimentalists.
We used to think of the United States Senate as a place where sober-minded men and women with a hankering for public service came together to listen to different points of view and forge common solutions to the nation's tough problems.
The fact that each of us represented a different political party did not diminish our mutual respect and readiness to work together. On the campaign trail, we tried to help our parties win, but in the Congress, we and many others sought to reach bipartisan legislative outcomes in the national interest.
But nowadays in Washington, the bridge-builders are heading for the hills.
The recent announcement by Sen. Evan Bayh (D) of Indiana that he would leave the Senate in 2010 was just the latest in a stream of moderate senators who are too fed up to seek another term. His fellow Midwesterner, Sen. George Voinovich (R) of Ohio, paved the way a year ago. Unless the ways of Washington change, we doubt these two senators will be the last to quit.

I'm a bit skeptical about this one.
H/T Gizmodo
Subjects in the lab wear markers and are tracked down to the nearest millimeter using infra-red cameras and markers with the same technology used in cinema for motion capture. The system knows exactly where they are, where they are headed and where they are looking. This takes it well beyond the capabilities of the current Oculus Rift.
The key to the immersive experience is that there are no cables attached to the person, who can wander freely through the room.
There is a video too.
In theory this can work. Our brains control our bodies based on electrical impulses generated by our eyes. If you can generate a perfect virtual world, then our brains can be fooled. The problem with the system in the video is it is far from perfect fidelity. I know this is just a prototype but you will have problems with people falling over. The headset doesn't provide a wide field of view. Our balance is based in part on our eyes peripheral vision.
Even so, in controlled situations this can be an interesting tool. I would be very interested in seeing a multi player version. You can imagine a class of students using this to explore a virtual model of a car or other vehicle.
It's a cool experiment but it will be very hard to get it to work effectively.

Heh I love stuff like this.
Thanks to my friend Amy Barnabi!
H/T Makezine
When Clay Haight was 8 years old, his grandfather bought him a book that explained how things were made and how to repair everyday appliances. He caught the bug and has been fascinated with making ever since. He's tried his hand at electronics, robotics, and other DIY projects, many of which he found in Make: magazine.
Clay's DIY "Google Glass" uses the sensors on the Arduino Esplora along with the Arduino LCD screen and a 3D printed frame. He can use voice commands to bring up a calendar with his schedule, local maps, and temperature and weather info. A headband on the back keeps it from tilting to one side.
What is happening here is the components are becoming very cheap to make and they can interface with each other via software. The result is what I have been saying for a few years. The Internet is going to empower the creative. This kid can make a difference because not only can he build this, but he can also send the instructions around the world for free.
(so how do you keep this child interested in school when he is forced to learn about things that are on the test?)

I am convinced that any future learning system will have to work on a global scale. It will also have to be personalized for each student. In order for this to happen, most of the content will have to be created by machines. Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and others are all working on machine vision and various related systems. Amazon's new Fire phone has a feature where you can take a picture of an object and it will tell you what it is (and how to buy it). Microsoft has announced that they have a system that can interpret what it looks at pretty well.
H/T Gizmodo
This morning at the annual Research Faculty Summit, Microsoft showed off a pretty impressive advancement in its AI tech. An app, entitled Project Adam, is poised to identify all of its surroundings just like a Fire Phone without the merch hooks. The app is still in development but shows promising results.
Here's the demo video.
I cannot overstate how much of a disruptive innovation this can be. When computers can see as well (and then better) than human, vast amounts of jobs will be able to be replaced. It will be the merging of the digital world and the real world.
So how long will it take for an app to come along where you point your phone at an object and say, "teach me about this"?
Technology is moving forward in a thousand tiny ways, getting ready to be combined into new products and ways to enhance the human experience.

Cameras are a godsend to teachers. Let's face it, we can lecture about something and have students read textbooks about it but a picture speaks a thousand words.
With the rise of miniature cameras you can pretty much capture anything you want. With the advent of cell phones, you can live stream this to the world. I predicted we would see this in sporting events pretty soon.
Well, sure enough…
H/T New York Times
While it is still early in the experiment, it appears many professional riders, who generally are particular about adding anything to their bikes, are enthusiastic about doubling up as camera operators.
It would seem to make sense to live stream this but experiments with that seem to indicate at least for a long event like this people would rather watch an edited video.
Julien Goupil, the media director for the Tour, said that the organization experimented with live transmissions from a bike using a dedicated motorcycle to capture the signal at a small race in the Netherlands last year. On the whole, Goupil said, the result wasn't as good as the edited product.
"If nothing is happening, the picture is nothing," he said. "We need to make something sexy."
Fascinating stuff. I still think streaming video could work for some sports. Now what will really be cool is a set of cameras capturing a full 360 degrees, coupled with a VR headset like Oculus Rift. It would seem like you are really on the bike. That however is a few more years off.
Here's a video explaining how the cameras are setup and some actual footage.

LeapFrog is a company that makes educational type devices for little children. They just unveiled a new game console that is designed to let little kids have a fun educational experience on their TVs.
H/T Gizmodo
LeapFrog says LeapTV will offer a library of over 100 proprietary games and videos available via game cartridge or download. Each game is curated by LeapFrog to offer age-appropriate educational fun. Assumedly, the killshot is a developmental target that lands somewhere after eight years old.
LeapTV will hit shelves in time for the 2014 holiday season at $150 for the system, $30 for each game cartridge, with downloadable games and apps starting at $5. With a wireless Wii-like remote and body-tracking camera, it tries to give younger kids the same sort of gaming capabilities that their older siblings likely enjoy.
So what can we learn from this? Well, it's clear the cost of entry to the video game console market has significantly dropped. The potential market for this system is fairly niche so that means the business model can work even that that limited level. That makes sense though because even a midrange smartphone can power something like this.
Longer term this means that kids entering K-12 will have a different idea as to what it means to learn. Learning to them will be fun. How excited to you suppose they will be while cramming for their first standardized test?

Here is a video of MIT Media Lab founder Nicholas Negroponte reviewing his past 30 years of predictions about the future. (Spoiler alert: he was mostly right)
The money moment for me come right at the very end where he is asked to make a new prediction. He said that in 30 years we will learn things by swallowing a pill with the information which then becomes available in our brains.
So… what happens to schools then?
These are the sorts of things that interest me. Massive disruptive forces. Enjoy.

I had heard about MOSS Robotics about a year ago but they are finally shipping.
H/T Gizmodo
MOSS is a modular building toy that allows anyone to easily build semi-intelligent robotic creations without the need for a computer, programming know-how, or any prior experience with building bots.
It may sound similar to existing robotic building sets, but the components that make up the MOSS sets connect to each other using metal ball bearings and magnets, instead of the traditional plastic interlocking studs. MOSS introduces a radically new way to build where the connectors not only hold components together, but also allow them to bend, move, and pivot, all depending on how they've been attached to each other.
What's that mean in practice? Since all of the 'programming' is dependent on how you've connected the various MOSS components, experimentation and trial and error is made easier and more enjoyable. The process is part of the fun.
Note that last paragraph? Experimentation, trial and error and process? That is how we learn most effectively. I'm going to get a set of these in a few years for my son. I can only imagine what kind of pieces you will be able to get then!
Here's a good overview of the technology.
Posted in Education, Education Tech, Learning 2.0, Technology, video | Tags: Education, electronic device, Learning 2.0, Technology, video
There are two possible ways to predict the future.
1. Take what currently exists and imagine improvements.
2. Take what currently exists and imagine replacements.
This is the difference between refinement and revolution. Take a device like smartphones. Are they are an improvement? Well you could argue they are just improved phones but actually they replaced land line phones so that makes them a revolution.
Each revolution in technology tends to unlock other advances. This used to take a long time but now it happens more rapidly because our science instruments are being improved and also because knowledge gets around much faster than it used to.
All of this leads to the Law of Accelerating Returns as defined by Ray Kurzweil. This means that technological progress tends to accelerate over time. As I like to put it, we are linear minds in an exponential time.
Ray Kurzweil tends to look at the future in revolutionary ways.
Imagine if we can use the cloud as an extension of our brain capacity! All of this is why I think that mass education in it's current form is going to be replaced, not just improved. Back in 2011 I asked if mass education as reached the point of diminishing returns. It is becoming more clear to me that it has. We spend more money on mass education for essentially no improvement. Technology like Ray talks about may go around the problem.

I was sent this great article by my friend on Twitter @dgburris.
In it author Martin Smith talks about how higher education is similar to the music industry. This isn't a new idea to these pages but it is laid out in the article in a good and clear way. Consider this a primer on what I think is going to happen to higher education.
H/T QZ.com
This last decade of the music industry presages the coming decade of education. Choice is expanding at every level, from pre-k to graduate school. The individual course, rather than the degree, is becoming the unit of content. And universities, the record labels of education, are facing increased pressure to unbundle their services. So what will the future of education look like?
The price of content will freefall over the next seven years. We heard the first rumblings last year when the Supreme Court ruled that U.S. copyright owners may not stop imports and re-selling of copyrighted content legally sold abroad, paving the way for a global market for textbooks.
The supply of learning content will swell. This might sound counterintuitive, but as we move toward a global market for content, creators will be price takers, unable to command much negotiating power given the sheer scale of distribution platforms (think iTunes). While it may make less sense for a professor in New York City to write a book, it makes a whole lot of sense for one in Mumbai.
Education will be personalized. With learning content available on demand, students will increasingly be able to build degree programs from a wide variety of institutions offering particular courses.
Universities will be masters of curation, working as talent agencies. They'll draw royalties and license fees from the content professors create and curate. In many ways, the role of the best universities will become even more focused on identifying, investing in, and harvesting the returns from great talent.
Yes yes exactly right. The author goes on to say that this will cause great upheaval in the industry. Again, I agree completely. Of course the scenario laid out above is what I think will happen without outside intervention (meaning government). The government is now such a large player in society that it throws off economics trends. For example, the ride sharing service Uber is banned in some cities with taxi companies. There aren't really any good reasons for this except it will hurt the taxi companies. This is the government picking winners and losers.
The other thing I think the author doesn't address is the rise of machine generated content. Once computers can generate lessons for students the price will hit the floor.
Barring outside meddling, higher education in 20 years will be marked by a few large learning providers using mostly automated systems with notable brand names (MIT, Stanford, Harvard), plus many many independent providers who will cater to niche markets.
This is the Stormfront of change I have been talking about. Like most transformations it is scary, but in this case it is inevitable.
