A dining plan for Mid-Town Atlanta...Good? Bad?
- c
- Chuck May 30, 2005 07:35 PM
We have three dinners, two breakfasts and two lunches to enjoy in Atlanta. We want to stay in the Midtown area.. Not interested in driving around the city; I know there are lots of good places outside our area...Perhaps we'll hit them on another visit. We're staying on 14th at Peachtree.
Right now the plan is to try Tamarind Thai for one of the three dinners. We'll do that the night we arrive because it's so close.
For breakfast, we'd probably just want to hit the best bakeries in the Midtown area. Any comments on the Corner Bakery, The Celebrity Cafe and Bakery and Le Madeline(sp)would be welcomed. I believe all there are in the Midtown area?
Was thinking of choosing between 1 MidTown Kitchen and MidCity Cuisine for one of the other two dinners. The other night could be a choice between Baranda vs Sotto Sotto or Pasta Pulcinella. Comments appreciated.
For the two lunch opportunities, my list includes The Vortex Bar & Grill, South City Kitchen, Baranda (pizza) or Eno. If the Varsity is any place near where we are staying, I intend to go there as well. Just to see the operation.
Thanks for anyone's willingness to comment. So many choices and so little time. Hoping to get the very best possible dining experiences within the Midtown area at reasonable prices.
I think you've got some good choices. For breakfast you might also want to try The Flying Biscuit at 10th and Piedmont. It's a more local option, rather than the chains.
My husband and I disagree over MidCity cuisine. I love it.. especially their "milk and honey" cocktail. We both love One Midtown Kitchen, though. They have great, simply prepared food in a great environment. If the roasted veggies include cauliflower while you are there... get it!! I promise, this is not like any other cauliflower you've ever had!
Enjoy your visit, and when you go to the Varsity, don't forget to order a frozen orange drink.. tastes just like those push-up pops I used to eat as a kid.
re: Chucks
Good choices all. I especially love the sausage and green apple ravioli at Pasta da Pulcinella. In the same neighborhood as PdP, I'd also recommend Vinocity. Obviously, wine is their thing, but I had a wonderful lunch there last week including a salad with "Roaring 40s" blue cheese dressing -- my new passion.
You are close enough to visit the Varsity, and it is not to be missed. The classic meal at the "Greasy V" is 2 chili dogs, onion rings, and an "F.O." (that's the frosted orange drink). Not *quite* walking distance but pretty close to your hotel for breakfast is the Silver Skillet (14th Street on the other side of the highway), a bastion of southern country cooking. I personally prefer it over the Flying Biscuit. But you can't go by me on that one. Chowhounds don't hate me, but I actually think the biscuits at Flying Biscuit are a little dry.
re: Newcomb Girl
You've been given a couple of great choices for Midtown. I agree that One Midtown Kitchen is fun and delicious...it's a must. As far as I'm concerned, Baraonda is outstanding. The food is excellent and the service is stellar. Their wait staff is ultra professional. What about the American Roadhouse for breakfast? It's not far from Midtown in Virginia Highlands on Highland Ave. A lot of fun on Saturday or Sunday morning. Then there is Nan! Fine Thai dining at Spring St and the 17th St bridge. Maybe the best Thai restaurant I've ever encountered (and the price reflects this).
re: Michael
Thanks for the suggestions. I sincerely appreciate it. I have heard about Nan (Nam?) and the good places in the Highlands, too.
Just wondering...Do you know anything about Tamarind Thai having to close this summer for some sort of street renovation. That they have to relocate?
re: Chuck
Nan and Nam are two different restaurants--both are great.
Na*N* (Spring and 17th) is owned by the same people as Tamarind Thai, which is going to shut down due roadwork on 14th st.
Na*M* Monroe and 10th in the Midtown Mall) is a great upscale Vietnamese restaurant that my Vietnamese friend says is authentic. Try the shaken filet mignon and the lemongrass tofu along with all appetizers!
You have done excellent research and have chosen many of my favorite spots.
As Sara suggests, definitely go to the Flying Biscuit for breakfast.
You many want to do that twice.
For lunch, The Vortex and South City Kitchen are great choices.
For dinner, I LOVE Tamarind and Baraonda. Those are great spots. I would do MidCity Cuisine for your other dinner.
For after-dinner drinks, try Halo (inside the Biltmore hotel) and Bazzaar (next to the Fox Theater).
MidCity Cuisine remains a wonderful room, even as the kitchen has become reliably unsteady.
Strongly suggest Woodfire Grill in its place (many past posts), where what is lacking in flash is more than made up for by what's on the plate.
Come to think of it: You could do the best of both worlds--dinner at Woodfire, then after dinner drinks at Mid City Cuisine.
Corner Bakery good for breakfast, great view from the patio. Also good for lunch for that matter
Chef Richard Blais is now at One Midtown Kitchen, which in my book makes it a highly recommended stop. Ask which of the dishes are his new ones on the menu and enjoy.
we had an outstanding dinner at Mid City Cuisine last week! all four of us loved everything from the appetizers, entrees to dessert. Service was very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Thought the price to food ratio was a good deal. we'd go there again in a heartbeat!
we also did The Varsity for our last meal in ATL. As previously mentioned on the board, get the onion rings (yummy--wish I got 2 orders!) and the frosted orange drink. Small sized drinks are truly small sized (the way "small" used to mean)--8 oz of fluid. Burgers were good too!
re: daantaat
Blais is now in Florida working at another restaurant. The food is much less imaginative (no shocker) without him at the helm. It's a bit tiresome, now, for me. Reflects more bar food than haute cuisine.
re: kevinabeatty
Richard Blais has been back from Florida for some time - he was chef at Element and then went to Chicago to compete on Top Chef 4, which is now airing. He is back in Atlanta these days - he consulted on a menu for Elevation in Kennesaw...but is not chef there. Word is he will be cooking at a place called Flip somewhere intown.
re: runningwithtweezers
i think i read recently that he will be heading the restaurant, Home, where Haven used to be. I took a look at their menu and it didn't impress me too much. Too heavy.
re: kevinabeatty
Yes it is Home but it is where Posh used to be, Seeger's old place. Sounds like it was a great opening night last night. Everyone seemed very excited about his new place.
We did Sotto Sotto, Woodfire Grill and Atmosphere all last week, our fav was Atmosphere. I think my favorite place for the whole week was Muss & Turners, which I did twice for lunch. The duck comfit is awesome.

A 25-year-old St. Johns County man was sentenced Wednesday to six years in federal prison for distribution of child pornography, to be followed by a seven year term of supervised release.
Sean-Michael Smith, who was also ordered to register as a sex offender, pleaded guilty on Feb. 24.
According to court records, on July 3, 2013, a detective from the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office was actively investigating computer users who were distributing child pornography via a peer-to-peer file sharing network.
On that date, the detective was able to successfully download three videos depicting minors engaging in sexually explicit conduct from an IP address registered to Smith. Based on that information, the Federal Bureau of Investigation obtained a search warrant for Smith's home.
When the warrant was executed on Aug. 2, Smith admitted to previously downloading and viewing child pornography, including one of the videos downloaded by the detective. Smith said, among other things, that he had been viewing child pornography for 10 years, and admitted that whenever the file sharing program on his computer was active, any downloaded content in the shared folder would be available for other users on the file sharing network to download.

Brewers trounce Padres, 10-1Todd Rosiak, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
SAN DIEGO -- The opening game of the Milwaukee Brewers' final West Coast road swing was a rousing success.
Kyle Lohse returned to the rotation after a one-start hiatus to pitch six solid innings and the Brewers' offense teed off to the tune of 16 hits and two home runs in cavernous Petco Park en route to a 10-1 victory over the San Diego Padres on Monday night.
Lohse (12-7) allowed four hits, one run (earned) and four walks while striking out five to record his first victory since July 23, while Ryan Braun and Aramis Ramirez each homered as the Brewers maintained their 11/2-game lead in the National League Central Division.
The 10 runs were the most for the Brewers since July 13, when they beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 11-2, and the victory was the Brewers' fifth straight on the road.
Milwaukee used three singles in the opening inning to grab a 1-0 lead off San Diego left-hander Eric Stults, who entered the night ranked fourth in the National League with 13 losses.
Ramirez drove in Carlos Gomez, who singled, stole second and went to third on a Braun infield single.
The Padres got that run back in the second when, with one out, Cameron Maybin singled and Alexi Amarista tripled into the left-field corner to score him. Chris Nelson drew a walk -- the third in the first two innings issued by Lohse -- to bring up Stults, who dropped a bunt down to the first-base side of the mound.
Lohse got to it quickly and fired home to Martin Maldonado just in time for the out, only to have Padres manager Bud Black ask for a review to determine if Maldonado was illegally blocking the plate. After a review of 3 minutes, 53 seconds, home-plate umpire Paul Schreiber's call stood, and Lohse struck out Will Venable to emerge with no further damage.
The Brewers tacked a run onto their lead in the third when, with one out, Braun blasted a homer to left-center. It was Braun's fifth homer at Petco Park in the last three seasons, with his three-homer game there on April 30, 2012, setting a career high for him.
Ramirez added a solo homer of his own, this one to straightaway center, to open the fifth and stretch Milwaukee's lead to 4-1.
Lohse, meanwhile, settled in nicely from his early struggles and settled into a groove.
Beginning with the strikeout of Venable in the second, Lohse retired 10 straight to head into the sixth at 72 pitches. He also was helped by Ron Roenicke's successful challenge of a safe call by first-base umpire Mark Ripperger on an apparent infield single to the right side by Nelson that ended the fourth.
A big three-run sixth against Padres reliever Blaine Boyer gave Lohse some added breathing room.
With one out, Jonathan Lucroy walked and Braun singled. Ramirez followed with a ground-rule double to left to score Lucroy and send Braun to third. Khris Davis, next up, blooped a double to left that Seth Smith misplayed, allowing Braun to score and moving Ramirez to third.
Rickie Weeks followed with a fly ball to right that Ramirez tagged and scored on, and just like that Milwaukee had stretched its lead to 7-1.
Lohse's string of consecutive batters retired ended when Smith opened the bottom of the sixth with a single, and Yasmani Grandal then drew a walk to put two on with nobody out for the Padres.
Lohse responded by striking out Jake Goebbert and Maybin, with Maldonado throwing down to second with Amarista up to pick Smith off and end the frame -- and Lohse's night.
He threw 90 pitches, and save for his early control problems looked good in his return from a right-ankle injury.
Milwaukee scored another run in the seventh off Boyer when Gerardo Parra, playing in place of Braun, grounded out sharply to first with the bases loaded to drive in Lyle Overbay, who got the inning going with a one-out, pinch-hit single.
Braun was lifted with a left quadriceps contusion, believed to have been sustained in a collision with Goebbert at first base in the opening inning.

This spring marks the 20th anniversary of the creation of Villanova's Art History major. Professor Emeritus George T. Radan was instrumental in the establishment of the major. There are now an average of 20 to 25 art history majors and minors in the program in any given year, and an average of 5 majors graduating from the program each year. Our majors have gone on to careers in teaching (at such schools as Kutztown University and Rutgers University), and in museum work (at such institutions as the Seattle Museum of Art). They have also found positions in auction houses both here and abroad (among them Sotheby's and Christie's).
The Pennsylvania Abolition Society awarded our graduate program $3000 to support our graduate students working on a history of the Institute for Colored Youth (ICY) during the Civil War. The premier school for black youth, the ICY opened in Philadelphia in 1837 and after moving out of the city was renamed Cheyney University in the early 20th century. The grant will support the research of Michael Johnson (and two other as yet unnamed graduate students) this summer and next year to plan and design an on-line exhibit celebrating the civil rights history of the school.
Eight Villanovans participated at this year's Phi Alpha Theta Pennsylvania East Regional conference at Bloomsburg University in April. Phi Alpha Theta is the national history honors society, and the annual conference provides history and art history students with an opportunity to present their own research and to hear what their peers at neighboring institutions are working on.
The Villanova students who presented papers included Matthew Albertson ('Cries in the Wilderness: Quaker Slavery and Abolition, 1688-1780'), Clara Candalor ('Anarchy, Revolution, and Bolshevism: the Evolution of the Russian Revolution According to American and British Newspapers, 1881-1918'), David DeLand ('Class, Stigma, and Survival: the Potato in Industrial Revolution London'), Abigail Gagis ('NOT a Hopeless Cause'), John Haffey ('A Matter Between Friends': Makarios, Eisenhower, and the Cyprus Question'), Alexander Kersten ('War and Peace: a Historiography of the Hague Peace Conference of 1899 and the Culture Surrounding It'), Re' Kleinbard (Matilda Jones: Seeking Freedom Amidst Strife and a Slave Family Separated in Virginia'), Doug MacGillivray ('Life After Little Round Top: What Happened to the 20th Maine Volunteer Regiment?').
Additionally, another of our students, Nina Friel, won a best paper prize for her work ('Mary Kingsley: Society, Gender, and the Spirit of Adventure').
Congradulations to all of our students!
On April 25, 2014, the Art History Program held its annual public presentation of the Art History majors' senior theses. Seniors Sarah Dunbar, Kathryn Fogarty, Rachel Godat, Gabe Molina, Elizabeth Morris, Thomas Morriss, Elisabeth Puglisi, and Jessica Zienkowski each made 20-minute presentations about their research and writing, and each answered questions from an audience of about 50 people that included friends, family, faculty, and fellow students.
The College of Liberal Arts and Science is pleased to offer to its students, faculty, and staff access to Mideastwire.com, an Internet-based news service that employs a team of translators from around the region to gather important stories from and about the Middle East. Its core product is a daily e-mail newsletter to English speaking subscribers that aggregates key English language stories about the Middle East. The majority of English speaking business-persons, students and journalists who have an interest in the affairs of this region are largely unaware of what the Middle East media is covering. Mideastwire.com aims to close this gap by offering a daily e-mail newsletter of concise, translated briefs covering some of the key political, cultural, economic, and opinion pieces appearing in the media of the 22 Arab countries, Iran, and the Arab Diaspora.

Comment posted Argyll and Bute Council: the empire strikes back with Argyll facing worst of all options by Bob Chicken.
One has to ask where the LibDems are in this piece. They say that they are a "progressive" party yet don't want to take part in a "progressive" alliance.
Surely after their experience with the previous "regressive" alliance they would jump at the chance of supporting the progressive alternative.
They are working with SNP and Scottish Labour led administrations (e.g.Highland Council) the length and breadth of Scotland yet don't seem to want to work with the SNP here. Surely compromise is in the nature of local politics – get the best deal for your constituents and fight their corner for them without compromising your core principles.
So, are they progressive or are they just Tories in sheep's clothing?
I haven't seen any statement from them or the Tories saying which core principles would be compromised by working with the Progressive Alliance.
Perhaps they and the Tories are concerned that the, no doubt, passionate and hard fought referendum debate over the next two and a bit years could sour working relationships. If so they should say so.
Perhaps it is the SNP or their partners that are uncompromising and getting in the way of a deal?
Surely it is better to either thrash out a deal with the largest group and rule out the uncertainty or make a clear statement as to why you can't achieve a deal so that we all understand why?

• flashing speed signs
• road widening
• improved pavements
• traffic control measures on Barmore Road
It would seem that the Scottish Government, our constituency MSP and Argyll & Bute Council are fixated on events around the Rest and Be Thankful and very little else!
Surely it's high time for Transport Scotland to recall the A83 stakeholder group and hear a few home truths about their abysmal failure.
Our communities really do deserve better!

I am still reading my way through the white paper
One of the first impressions that I got was that the timetable is unworkably tight and badly thought through.
In the unlikely event of a Yes victory there would be 18 months to complete the most complex negotiations to untangle the legal, financial, military and political relationships that currently bind us together. Then, there would have to be the horse trading over the costs and financing of it all. Finally there would have to be the drawing up of new treaties, arrangements & agreements with the UK, EU, NATO, UN and many others.
In the middle of all of this falls a general election and a probable change of government & at the end of it a further election to the Scottish Parliament.
All of this was known when the timetable was drawn up.

text: Iron Man falls back before terrorist horde by John Hayward 14 Apr 2013 Share This: The U.K. premiere of "Iron Man 3" is going to be pushed back a day, from April 17 to April 18. Why? Because April 17 is Margaret Thatcher's funeral, and the authorities are worried about widespread "civic unrest." In other words, the useless spoiled-brat hordes of the Left are going to turn out en masse and prove Lady Thatcher was absolutely correct about them, and about the importance of defeating them. Ironically, "Iron Man 3" is about the high-tech capitalist hero's battle with a global terrorist... who is supposed to be Chinese, but we can't have that, because it would hurt box office in the Chinese market, so now he's Ben Kingsley. And now the film's premiere will be meekly pushed back a day, without a peep of protest from all the bold free-thinking free-speaking heroes of Hollywood. Try to imagine what would be said if a major summer blockbuster release was rescheduled due to the kind of massive Tea Party riot that never actually happened, ever, but the media is constantly wringing its hands about. I have an alternative suggestion for the Brits. You guys have cameras and facial-recognition software all over the place, right? How about announcing that anyone who behaves in an unruly fashion on the day of Lady Thatcher's funeral will be immediately and irrevocably denied welfare benefits for life?

I proposed to my fiance in Seville and spent that night at the Alfonso XIII. The conceirge was incredible. The night before the proposal, he helped arrange for flowers and cava in the room, reserved seats at a Flamenco show (and then called the theater when we were running late to hold our seats), and also helped get our bags in the room without my fiancee knowing. He was absolutely great. - Anonymous

Wonderful hotel in a great locationPosted Oct 26, 2014
Pros: It is a beautiful hotel with amazing ceilings and artwork.
Location: The location is great, literally next to Central Park and on 5th Avenue near the shops.
Booked this hotel through Expedia and had the best experience. The hotel is beautiful very art deco and you feel like you are in The Great Gatsby. The room was huge, plush and comfortable. Did not want to leave the sumptuous bed, but its great location next to Central Park was key to visit this beautiful area, near the Museums and fantastic restaurants. On 5th Avenue so easy to walk to the shops. The staff were very helpful, always cheerful and happy to accommodate any request.

Nice hotel at the best location in New YorkPosted Apr 7, 2014
Pros: The location of this hotel is excellent. We walked through Central Park to the museums and took subways to explore the city.
Cons: Air conditioning system is making too much noise.
Location: We spent a lot of time in Central Park. My daughter loved the playgrounds there. Unfortunately the carousel was not open to public during our stay
We stayed in the hotel for a week for my daughter's spring break. The hotel is located right off the central park in a very old building. The room itself is fine. The staff is very polite and efficient. Every time we made a request, they showed up at our door in a minute. The murals on the ceiling were just restored the day after we arrived and they added a lot of elegance to the hotel lobby. The food at the hotel restaurant was very good too. The only thing that makes me think about twice about returning to this hotel is the air conditioning system. It makes a lot of noise. The heater works independently from the air conditioning system so we could not turn off the heater. I could not sleep the first night with the air conditioning on so we turned it off the next day and the room was too hot then. Finally we requested blankets and keep the air conditioning off the whole night. In summer time, it may cause troubles to people who have sleep problems.

Perfect location: park, shopping and museums!Posted Mar 21, 2014 on Hotels.com
Excellent. Our only problems were they were doing some renovations and had some scaffolding in the lobby, they had a problem with their television service, and the heat/air was rather noisy. But the room was large, comfortable and clean and the staff friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay there again!

EL PASO, Texas (AP) -- The American Legion is hosting crisis centers to help veterans get doctor's appointments and benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs.
More than 1,800 people in Arizona, North Carolina and Texas have been helped so far. The Legion will set up the temporary centers in seven more cities that also saw the longest waiting times.
The centers come in the wake of the VA scandal that brought to light long wait times and false record-keeping.
The American Legion also holds a town-hall meeting, where veterans can air their grievances.
Verna Jones, who is the director of the Legion's Veterans affairs, says the centers provide experts who hear the veterans' cases and help them present their issue to VA employees.
The crisis centers are staffed with VA doctors, nurses and schedulers.

Angel Pagan went 3 for 5 including a two-run triple as the Cubs rallied to defeat the White Sox, 6-3 on Friday to open inter-league play. The Sox held a 3-1 lead but Pagan's hit tied the game. He scored later on a wild pitch. The Cubs added a pair of insurance runs in the 8th.
Ryan Dempster was right back at it to close the game. He was clobbered on Thursday at Shea Stadium by the Mets but had no trouble in getting the save on Friday.

Autopsy: Driver who killed himself, 4 others was drunk
The autopsy results for a Tampa driver who killed himself and four University of South Florida students in a crash reveal he was drunk.
The results, released by the Hillsborough County medical examiner's office, show the blood alcohol level of Daniel Morris, 28, was more than double the legal limit.
His blood alcohol level was 0.20. The legal limit for the state of Florida is 0.08.
There was a trace of marijuana also found in his system.
On the morning of February 9, Morris was driving a SUV the wrong way on Interstate 295 when he hit a Hyundai Sonata carrying four students. The four men were members of the Sigma Beta Rho fraternity.
According to investigators Morris left a party the night before, got into his roommate's SUV and took off.
Investigators are looking into exactly where he began to travel the wrong way on the interstate.
The four USF students have been identified as 21-year-old Dammie Yesudhas, 21-year-old Jobin Joy Kuriakose, 20-year-old Imtiyaz "Jim" Ilias and 22-year-old Ankeet Harshad Patel.

"Think Fast, Father Ted" is the second episode of the second series of the Channel 4 sitcom Father Ted. The title is a play on the novel Think Fast, Mr. Moto by John P. Marquand, and the film of the same title starring Peter Lorre.
The parochial house has a leak, which happens to be over Jack's head. Ted and Dougal move him, only to have another leak start over Jack's new position. Ted decides to hold a raffle to raise money for the roof. He calls Bishop Brennan and secures permission to raffle a blue Rover 213. Ted and Dougal leave to retrieve the Rover. Upon their return, Dougal spots a small dent on the bonnet. Ted is dismayed and tries to "tap it away" with a hammer from the tool kit. However, after much time has passed, Ted has only succeeded in destroying the car's exterior.
Realising that they are in dire straits if Bishop Brennan should learn what was done to the Rover, Ted decides to procure another. The priests remember that Father Finnegan, the so-called "dancing priest", has a Rover identical to the ruined original. They travel to Finnegan's home to "borrow" the Rover. Ted gets permission and the keys. As soon as Ted leaves his sight, Father Finnegan drops dead of a heart attack.
Realising that they can't give the borrowed Rover away, Ted and Dougal rig the raffle in order for them to win and return the car. The plan involves Ted, as the Master of Ceremonies, calling the number 11. This number will be Dougal's. On the day of the event, Ted and Dougal work feverishly to sell tickets. They also secure Father Billy O'Dwyer, a.k.a. "Spinmaster", to provide music. However, he only has one record and a major gambling problem, which results in his purchase of 2000 raffle tickets. Later, the announcement that the organizers have won the raffle manages to suck the life out of the event.
Back at the parochial house, Mrs. Doyle reveals that Father Finnegan has died. Ted is relieved, realizing he will be able to keep the car. However, things turn to the worse quickly. Ted discovers that an inebriated Father Jack has stolen the car in an effort to acquire more to drink. He asks Father Jack what he has done with the car. Jack explains curtly that he ran into two trucks. When Ted and Dougal inspect the damage, they discover that the rear half has been smashed beyond repair. While they are out, Father O'Dwyer steals the raffle money to pay off his debts, leaving Ted and Dougal with nothing. With the weathermen predicting rain until August, and the leak getting worse and worse, Ted, Jack, Dougal and Mrs Doyle are forced to spend the rest of the year in anoraks.
- The record that the SpinMaster plays (repeatedly) is "Ghost Town" by The Specials. It is also played when Father Ted asks for the Irish national anthem to be played.
- The record that the Dancing Priest is seen dancing to is a pastiche of Beatnik Fly by Johnny and the Hurricanes. However, it could probably be a version recorded by The Divine Comedy (and he encourages Ted to join him in his dancing, saying prayer isn't the only way to praise God, and it keeps you fit too).

Thousands of Gnostics have been literally burned at the stake by the church for knowing something that the church doesn't want you to know. Find out what it is below!
Bill encourages people to meditate, starting from the solar plexus and ending in the pineal gland and the right hemisphere of the brain where Sophia is. Sophia represents wisdom and knowledge and is the feminine principle of God, which is the Spirit.
"Religions which have been degrading women are the same that degrade the spirit. They're scared to death of it," stated Donahue. "So when they came against women, they simply come against the spirit and that which is the feminine principle of God which is Sophia which dwells inside of you waiting for you to touch it and to bring you into oneness with nature."
Donahue spoke about the greatest secret kept by the Gnostics in which world religions killed people if they knew this secret. The ones who profit from the established positions in society could not allow people to hear this secret. It was too dangerous to them, so they oppressed and they killed them.
Donahue stated, "There is only one thing and that is your knowledge of the cosmos, your knowledge of cosmology, your knowledge of nature and your willingness to subject yourself to flow in that beautiful place in the higher realms of consciousness where nature flows to carry you up into the arms of that which is Nirvana, and she will embrace you and then you become one in consciousness. Then you become one in Spirit."
"First of all, before you do anything else, seek for the Kingdom of God which is within you. That's the pineal gland and when you touch that pineal gland and it'll have the energy and electricity to move it, it'll open the right hemisphere of the brain and there you will sit and the right hand of the Father. That's what you have to know and nothing else. You don't have to go on any trips, you don't have to go to any churches, you just have to understand nature. You have to understand the electricity of nature. This is all (about) electricity."
"Gnostics recognize not the world as a place of following politicians but as simply as a predicament from which we have got to free ourselves. In Gnosticism, the do not aim at the transformation of the world, they aim at the transformation of the mind. You cannot solve the problems on the outside until you solve the problem on the inside."
Direct, personal and absolute knowledge of authentic truth is accessible to human beings and attainment of such knowledge must constitute the supreme achievement of human life.
Salvation is an inner psychological change of your mind. You are saved when you have psychologically had an inner transformation of the mind.

Structural modelling and analysis using BIM tools Master of Science in Civil Engineering The School of Civil Engineering, Aalborg University Anne Kathrine Nielsen & Søren Madsen Faculties of Engineering, Science and Medicine The School of Civil Engineering Aalborg University Sohngaardsholmsvej 57 DK-9000 Aalborg Phone +45 9940 8530 http://bsn.aau.dk Title: Structural modelling and analysis using BIM tools Theme: Master's Thesis Project period: 1st of February to the 9th of June 2010 Synopsis: This study will focus on the structural engineering part in the detail design phase of the building process. Different S-BIM tools are evaluated through analyses of five structures with varying complexity, different section properties, geometry, material properties and so on. The S-BIM tools evaluated are: Made by: Anne Kathrine Nielsen Søren Madsen Supervisor: Poul Henning Kirkegaard Editions: 3 Number of pages: 81 Appendices: 7 • Add-on tool for Revit Structure • Direct link between Revit and Robot • Direct link between Revit and StaadPro • Indirect link between Revit and Robot via IFC The Revit add-on tool tested can be rather useful for calculating section forces and deflection in feasibility studies if a 'load-takedown' feature is introduced. It is found that the direct links in general are best. Regarding timber structures, the link between Revit and Robot works better than the link between Revit and StaadPro. The tested IFC exchange file format, IFC Coordination View, was not found suitable for the tests performed in this study. Completed: 9th of June 2010 The content of the report is freely available, but publication (with source reference) is only allowed with agreement by the author. Preface This study is conducted at the 4th semester of the Master of Science Programme in Civil Engineering at Aalborg University.

Imagine examining hundreds of rows of raw data in Excel in an attempt to find a pattern or trend. Thankfully one of the tools we can use in Excel to make this task simpler is Conditional Formatting. Just another way Excel makes your data display, other than a chart. The Conditional Formatting features are color scales, icon sets and data bars to name a few. When to Use Excel's Conditional Formatting: If you want to be informed in real time Answer questions visually Analyze data: find exceptions, find relationships, find trends, etc Enhance data presentations You can choose from inbuilt Conditional Formatting rules like: Top 10 or Bottom 10 using percentages, average or item Greater than, less than or equal to Text that contains a specific word or phrase A date occurring And even identify duplicate values Or you can insert a formula and create a custom conditional format. Color coding can be simple like font color, font style and cell fill, or more elaborate with icons, color scales or data bars. 1 Conditional Formatting Examples How to Apply Conditional Formatting: Select the range of cells you want formatted. From the Home tab go to the Styles group and select Conditional Formatting. The menu will appear with your formatting options. When you choose one of the options a cascading menu will appear. 2 Depending on which option you choose you will be prompted to make more selections. Note: You can specify a custom format or use one of the default formats. You can choose to format the cell fill, font style, color, size, bold, italic, underline and more. Remove Conditional Formatting Rules: Click the Conditional Formatting command. Select Clear Rules. A cascading menu appears. Choose to clear rules from the entire worksheet or the selected cells.

Water factors into all national green building certification programs, and while it may account for only a small piece of the overall sustainability pie, there are points to be earned by targeting water use reduction and increasing water efficiency. This chapter looks at how and where water factors into commercial and residential green building certification programs.
Water factors into all national green building certification programs, and while it may account for only a small piece of the overall sustainability pie, there are points to be earned by targeting water use reduction and increasing water efficiency. This chapter looks at how and where water factors into commercial and residential green building certification programs.
In 2006, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, in partnership with manufacturers, retailers, distributors, and utility companies, established the WaterSense program. The program adds labels to such products as faucets, toilets, and showerheads that meet EPA water-efficiency and performance standards—typically 20-30% more efficient than standard products.
The EPA's goal for the WaterSense label is to have it achieve the same level of recognition among consumers as its Energy Star label, which rates the energy efficiency of products and buildings. The signs are encouraging. "WaterSense has had a big leap in market share," says Stephanie Tanner, lead engineer for WaterSense. "In 2007, our rated toilets had only 2% of the market, and in 2008 we had 8.8%. We also had 11.7% of the faucet market and 24.6% of all faucet aerators." Tanner says there are 300 different toilets and 800 faucets and aerators available with the WaterSense label.
The WaterSense Commercial and Institutional Certification Program is still in the planning and comment stage, but the broad outlines of the program are beginning to take shape.
The EPA is defining the CI sector as including any building with a use other than residential, and figures these building types to account for 17% of water drawn from public supplies.
The EPA homed in on six commercial property types that it determined accounted for the largest consumption of water. The WaterSense CI program stipulates a potential 40% reduction in water use: office buildings, 43,338,240 gal/yr; schools, 37,798,766 gal/yr; restaurants, 15,640,869 gal/yr; laundries, 4,887,771 gal/yr; healthcare facilities, 4,877,771 gal/yr; hospitality, 3,258,514 gal/yr.
WaterSense targets include:
Indoor domestic water use (restrooms, washing machines, dishwashers)
Cooling and heating (cooling towers, single-pass cooling)
Outdoor water use (irrigation, native plantings)
Implementing a WaterSense CI program will present the EPA with several challenges, among them whether to roll out a broad program that includes all commercial and institutional sectors or to focus on one sector at a time. The large-scale rollout allows WaterSense to capture economies of scale. However, the-one-size-fits-all program might not work because different types of commercial and institutional buildings have technology and operating procedures specific to their needs.
Choosing the single building type option would enable WaterSense to target those commercial sectors with the greatest potential for improvement in water efficiency first. However, such an approach might mean that the EPA would miss out on water savings opportunities for non-targeted sectors.
The EPA is still accepting comments on its proposed WaterSense program for the commercial and institutional sector. Review the proposal at: http://www.epa.gov/watersense/docs/ci_whitepaper.pdf [2]
LEED has several green building rating "products," as the USGBC calls its rating programs, all with a Water Efficiency (WE) component. LEED for New Construction, Commercial Interiors, Core & Shell, Neighborhood Development, and Schools all have a prerequisite of a minimum 20% water use reduction compared to a baseline building. LEED-NC, LEED-CI, LEED-CS, LEED-ND, and LEED for Schools water use reduction excludes commercial steam cookers, commercial dishwashers, automatic ice makers, commercial and residential clothes washers, and residential dishwashers.
LEED for New Construction addresses design and construction for both new buildings and major renovations of existing buildings.
In addition to the 20% prerequisite, additional credits are: water-efficient landscaping, 2-4 credits; innovative wastewater technologies, 2 credits; water use reduction, 2-4 credits.
LEED for Commercial Interiors addresses tenant spaces in office, retail, and institutional buildings. In addition to the 20% prerequisite, additional reductions in water use can yield the following: 30% reduction, 6 credits; 35%, 8 credits; 40%, 11 credits.
LEED for Core & Shell is used for projects where developers control design and construction of the core and shell base building but have no control over tenant fit-out. Additional credits beyond the 20% prerequisite: water efficient landscaping, 2-4 credits; innovative wastewater technologies, 2 credits; additional water use reduction, 2-4.
LEED-EBOM certifies sustainability of ongoing operations within existing commercial and institutional buildings.
The prerequisite here is for a minimum 20% water use reduction compared with a building with plumbing systems substantially completed after 1992, and a 60% water use reduction compared with a baseline calculated for a building with plumbing system substantially completed before 1993. Additional credits include: water performance measurement, 1-2 credits; additional indoor plumbing fixture and fitting efficiency, 1-5 credits; water-efficient landscaping, 1-5 credits; cooling tower water management, 1-5 credits.
LEED for Schools addresses new schools and major renovations to existing schools. Beyond the 20% prerequisite, additional credits include: water-efficient landscaping, 2-4 credits; innovative wastewater technologies, 2 credits; water use reduction, 2-4 credits; process water use reduction, 1 credit.
LEED for Neighborhood Development integrates smart growth, urbanism, and green building into the first national system for neighborhood design.
In addition to the 20% prerequisite, additional credits include: building water efficiency, 1 credit; water-efficient landscaping, 1 credit; stormwater management, 1-4 credits; wastewater management, 1-2 credits.
The LEED for Retail pilot has two ratings systems: LEED for Retail New Construction and LEED for Retail Commercial Interiors.
Both LEED for Retail programs require the 20% minimum reduction for the tenant space (for the CI program) and the building (for the NC program). LEED for Retail CI adds a second prerequisite: 20% water use reduction for commercial equipment performance.
Additional CI credits include: water use reduction of 30%, 6 credits; 35%, 8 credits; 40%, 11 credits. Additional NC credits: water-efficient landscaping, 2-4 credits; innovative wastewater technologies, 2 credits; water use reduction, 2-4 credits.
The Green Building Initiative's proposed American National Standard 01-200XP: Green Building Assessment Protocol for Commercial Buildings is aimed at new commercial construction, major commercial renovations, and multifamily buildings taller than three stories. The program is currently in draft form.
The standard proposes four levels of achievement and a possible total 1,000 points: Level 1, 35-45% of points; Level 2, 55-69%; Level 3, 70-84%; Level 4, 85-100%. Water assessment accounts for 130 possible points (13%).
Water assessment includes 10 categories:
Plumbing fixtures, fittings, appliances, and equipment, 46 points
Cooling towers, 18 points
Boilers and water heaters, 3 points
Commercial food service operations, 12 points
Medical, dental, and laboratory facilities, 11 points
Commercial/institutional laundries, 10 points
Special water features. 4 points
Water treatment, 5 points
Alternate sources of water, 15 points
Metering, 6 points
The Collaborative for High Performance Schools was founded in 1999 to improve energy efficiency in schools. Eleven states have developed CHPS high-performance criteria, and there are 46 completed CHPS schools across the country. Recognition is either by third-party verification or self-certification.
Water efficiency, one of seven categories, maxes out at nine points—less than 8% of total possible points, although there is a prerequisite for a water use budget. The nine available points: reduce potable water for non-recreational landscaping areas (2), reduce potable water for recreational area landscaping (1), irrigation system testing and training (1), reduce sewage conveyance from toilets (2), and reduce indoor potable water use (2), and water management systems (1).
http://www.chps.net [3].
The Green Guide for Health Care gives healthcare designers, owners, and operators a voluntary, self-certifying program they can use to evaluate green design, construction, and operating practices. The Green Guide offers two programs, Construction and Operations, in a single document.
1. Construction: 97 points, with a prerequisite for eliminating potable water use for medical equipment cooling. Water efficiency accounts for six points (6%).
2. Operations (for existing buildings): 72 points, with a prerequisite for a minimum 20% water use reduction compared with a baseline building. Water conservation accounts for eight points (11%).
http://www.gghc.org [4].
The National Association of Home Builders offers two green homes programs whose water-efficiency guidelines can be incorporated into new home construction or significant remodeling projects.
The Model Green Home Building Guidelines program (launched 2005) applies to new single-family homes and detached multifamily dwellings. The program offers three levels of green building certification: Bronze (minimum 6 WE points of 237 possible), Silver (minimum 13 WE of 311), and Gold (minimum 19 WE of 395).
The National Green Building Standard, launched in 2007, developed in partnership with the International Code Council (ICC), is the first residential green building rating system to receive full ANSI approval. Four certification levels are offered: Bronze (minimum 14 WE points of 222 possible), Silver (minimum 26 WE of 406), Gold (minimum 41 WE of 558), and Emerald (minimum 60 WE of 697). As of October 2009, 500 homes have earned certification.
Both programs exclude additions of any size to existing multifamily buildings, additions greater than 75% of the original conditioned area of an existing single-family home that do not involve renovation of the original building, and developments that do not contain any residential uses.
Masco's Environments for Living and Environments for Living Certified Green are national turn-key programs designed to help builders construct green homes. More than 130,000 homes have been certified under the programs.
Environments for Living Certified Green's water-efficiency features are designed to provide a minimum 20% indoor water savings.
http://www.environmentsforliving.com [6]
LEED for Homes targets the top 25% of new homes. Of 15 possible Water Efficiency credits, a minimum of three must be achieved in the water efficiency category. Credits include: water reuse (3-5 possible); irrigation system (1-4), and indoor water use (1-6). A total 3,050 homes are LEED certified, and more than 19,000 are registered.
The WaterSense New Home Certification program, which is expected to go into effect by the end of the year, will apply to new single-family homes and townhouses up to three stories.
To comply, builders must construct homes where water usage is at least 20% less than that of standard homes. Their homes must then be examined by EPA-approved, third-party certification providers and inspectors who will evaluate individual properties.

SF Tidbits for 7/27/07
- At SciFi Wire, John Joseph Adams profiles Chris Roberson, author of Set the Seas on Fire.
- Matthew Jarpe is a hack. "One of the common epithets people throw at a writer they don't like is 'hack.' That's 'a writer who exploits his or her ability primarily for money.' As if producing a product of art with commercial potential is wrong. Well, here's the thing, I'm a hack."
- Jeff VanderMeer has posted mystery excerpts from his New Weird Anthology. The first person to correctly guess the author who wrote them wins a copy of the book.
- Over at Amazon's blog, VanderMeer lists 13 Reasons to Read Richard Morgan's Thirteen. See also the SF Signal review.
- The Wall Street Journal profiles Robert A. Heinlein. [via Cynical-C]
- JK Rowling says she will publish a Harry Potter Encyclopedia. [via No Blasters]
- Pat's Fantasy Hotlist interviews Peter F. Hamilton (The Dreaming Void). "As a species we're just not psychologically adjusted to living for more than a century, yet billions are being poured into research that leads to increased life expectancy. Suppose it works out, and we can live for three of ten times longer than today. That's the kind of question which SF exists for."
- Over at his AOL gig, John Scazli looks at overrated books and cited Catcher in the Rye as his pick. "Tell us of one piece of culture — book, movie, album, painting, play, architectural "masterpiece," whatever — that you think is wildly overrated."
- Lou Anders responds to Discover magazine's "Blinded by Science: Fictional Reality" article.
- Borders bookstores has cut back their soft seating by 30%. Ed Champion comes to the defense of sitting in bookstores.
- It's official: J.J. Abrams, director the upcoming Star Trek movie, confirmed the casting of Heroes star Zachary Quinto as a young Spock and surprised the audience with the announcement that original Spock actor Leonard Nimoy would also appear in the film.
- The Avalanche Software Art Blog is still going strong with nearly very post offering up some cool, artsy goodness by their very talented staff. Their latest entry is is a caricature of Qui-Gon Jinn.
