Community microgrids raise questions about the role of the utility franchise, versus the free market.
Business Case Tradeoffs
Shaping long-term smart-grid strategy.
infrastructure can be leveraged to accomplish a number of objectives, the value proposition can become compelling. 2
Objective Focus
As the utility scans the horizon for the next steps in smart grid's evolution, it's easy to organize the thinking around technologies. Storage, wind, solar, micro-grids, smart thermostats, pre-pay, direct load control, smart appliances, electric vehicles, distribution automation and distributed generation all have a decidedly technology footprint if for nothing more than the fact that they often are aligned with vendors, trade shows, market studies, and industry consortiums and they have unique forces shaping their product maturity. From the utility's perspective, however, it's better to organize around programmatic themes such as: transmission-level optimization; distribution system optimization and automation; facilitating renewable energy sources; facilitating the introduction of distributed resources; and assisting consumer choice. The technology prescription goes only so far.
To give proper consideration to these ostensibly competing opportunities, the utility will align the business case work with core company objectives. It can't queue up the business-case efforts within silos and restrict the work to a discovery of narrow operational benefits—that won't highlight the important tradeoffs. Take reliability as an example. It's one completely non-fungible utility company objective—few utilities would want to trade off lower reliability with, say lower energy costs; it just isn't a viable direction. 3 By elevating reliability into the business case it becomes possible to compare competing technology alternatives and programs around a central and non-fungible business requirement (recognizing at the same time that further concreteness around specific reliability outcomes is useful).
Part of the challenge of elevating objectives ( e.g., reliability) is that doing so will require the use of tools like power flow studies, which often is technically challenging, time consuming and expensive work. It also might require lots of work to sort out which particular aspects of reliability need addressing and how best to measure them. What's the value, for example, of improved NERC reliability compliance, or what's the value of being able to integrate various new forms of generation? In short, it could be difficult to bring in a very wide set of expertise into the business-case effort and create a sustained dialogue with disparate disciplines.
Another problem is that objectives might have ambiguous links to specific actions and project capabilities, and so these benefits sometimes appear intangible or soft. As a result, too often utilities don't work hard enough to stretch the benefits case to include these benefits. Take the case of increasing commercial customer access to energy use and cost data. This is a high order priority for utilities. They also would agree that advanced metering is a concrete capability that facilitates, if not enables, energy management in commercial buildings by increasing the customer's access to energy use and cost data. The link is clear. As reported by DOE:
By adopting energy management best practices, businesses can reduce their energy use significantly, by up to 30 percent or more. These practices include assessing energy performance, setting energy savings goals, and regularly evaluating progress, all of which require on-going access to consistent data. Use

God, has it really been 10 years since Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back? Though that movie was, well, kind of terrible, it didn't detract from the comedy duo's legacy in pop culture. Jay and Silent Bob (Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith) are still as awesome as ever. This time, however, they embrace the sunset of their careers with "Jay and Silent Bob Get Old," a metal-fueled comedy performance 17 years in the making. No long, dark trench coats, no greasy blond extensions. Probably no weed slinging. Whatever antics this live show entails, whatever new angry rants Jay spews or the pearls of wisdom Silent Bob bestows—we'll always remember them as the two stoners hanging around outside the Quick Stop.

I've always thought that if there was some kind of world-wide liquification, there would have been signs of a massive extinction rate of some kind at the time. Animals and plants are strong, yes, but many, many species of plants, for example, would die off, I think? All at once?
Anyway, last time I saw something to do with Liquification, it was something to do with the ground shaking, which makes the ground liquify momentarily and then solidify again, a little like snow does in an avalanche, or the way wet sand sucks your feet down if you jump up and down on the beach. If this were true, wouldnt that require some kind of world-wide shake-up. A global earthquake. A meteor. A HUGE meteor. Quite possibly one that would have just as easily went straight through the planet, nevermind cause worldwide liquification. I, honestly, can't think of any physical force that would make a global earthquake of that calibre. Unless someone can think of something, I really cant think of any way that worldwide liquification would in any way be possible.
Not only that, but if I'm right about all of that, and Liquification is half of what its made out to be, it would have completely decimated areas it affects, and there would, surely, be noone left to tell the tale, or have seen it?
... And if anyone wants to get into the religious/spiritual side of things, I doubt an Ark would float on liquificated form. xD It'd wiggle like crazy, wouldnt it? I feel a lot of old tales of immense destruction on certain civilisations are either 'garnished' legends that pre-historical people told eachother, or were based from actual natural events that CAN be explained, but just, again, with a little bit of garnish added. Fire and brimstone. All that stuff. And~ I actually think, if you look back on the history of the entire world, the Earth floated through space dead for a heckuva long time, before life EVER came to appear on it. Which I thought a little weird.
Well as that... I was just thinking.. liquification.. I always thought that affected only materials that were in small granules that could be seperated. (Ie; mud, sand, snow, gravel.) I've never actually heard of solid rock liquidating. Solid rock being what most fossils are actually set in. Fossils having basically turned into solid rock for all intensive purposes. Wouldnt perhaps fossils break up, if at ALL the area around them liquidated?
I'm not a big expert on this area, but thought I'd just throw some stuff in.
Remember, people tended to believe in a lot of things that weren't particularly real back in the ancient times.

great lights, quiet, but no hinge! Review by Timothy
Product Rating:
would have given it a 5 star rating however no hinge on a small system like this makes access to the inside tank nearly impossible without having to move the entire light system off the top and place on the floor while working. very quiet though. nice lights. quality. recommend to those that like keeping easy to moderate corals that don't want to pay the high price of halides and chillers.

Just about everyone can enjoy exercising and activities in the great outdoors; even in the dead of winter. Here are a few health and safety tips that you should be aware of to keep you warm.
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)

Published in Blog
Keywords: Cold, weather, winter, snow, temperature, frost bite, saftey, warm
LOS ANGELES, CA (Rise Above Health Blog) - Always dress in layers, one of the biggest mistakes people make is
dressing too warmly for exercise in the winter. By dressing in layers,
you actually can remain warmer, here is why.
Exercise generates a lot of heat, enough heat that you feel like it is warmer than it really is. If you dress too warmly you start to sweat then as the sweat will cause you to get chilled and you can risk hypothermia. By dressing in layers you can prevent this as you can remove or add back layers as needed.
The Mayo Clinic recommends that the first layer should be a thin layer of a synthetic material like polypropylene which draws sweat away from your body. Avoid cotton, which is very absorbent and will stay wet next to your skin. The next layer should be fleece or wool for insulation, and finally top off with a waterproof breathable outer layer. If you are very lean, you may require more insulation than a heavier person.
Avoid wearing a heavy down jacket or vest as these may cause you to overheat if you are exercising hard.
If it is very cold, it is a good practice to wear a face mask or scarf to help warm the air before it enters your lungs.
Experiment to find the right combination of laying that works for you based on the temperature and your exercise intensity. Activities that are stop and go such as mixing walking and running will make you heat up then cool down and chill. This will make you more susceptible to hypothermia.
You may need to experiment before you find a combination of clothing that works well for you based on your exercise intensity. Keep in mind, too, that stop-and-go activities, such as mixing walking with running, can make you more vulnerable to the cold if you repeatedly work up a sweat and then get chilly.
Tobogganing is a great family activity in the winter.

A guest of Jody MacDonald's show on 950 AM, the Phillies GM gave listeners a taste of what they can expect this season. [Audio]
With the hot stove reaching an icy cool, this was a nice warm cup of cocoa. It's as if Jody Mac read our thoughts. I encourage readers to listen to the entire interview.
The points that resonated most dealt with two players barely on the radar. Things continue to look grim for Chris Coste. When asked about the catching situation, Gillick restated his confidence in Carlos Ruiz and Rod Barajas, indicating Ruiz is here to stay. Meanwhile, it seems Coste has dropped out of the catching mix entirely; Gillick even went so far as to restate Jayson Werth's ability to catch.
The kind of versatility Werth brings appears to be the top requirement to win a spot on the bench, and Gillick suggested that Coste will need to prove himself in the field. Jody Mac, in true Beerleaguer spirit, actually kicked off the interview with a Greg Dobbs question, and Gillick seemed excited that he can play all corners. Dobbs, Randall Simon and Karim Garcia were mentioned in the same breath as candidates for the left-handed bench spot, but it would seem that versatility is in Dobbs' favor.
The second mention of an unknown commodity focused on the bullpen. When asked which player had the best chance to emerge this spring, Gillick flatly said Joe Bisenius.
Bisenius, pronounced BYE-senius, had a breakout year in 2006 and impressed scouts this fall. The former 12th-round pick out of Oklahoma City University didn't generate much buzz before the season, but after a few Double-A appearances, the Phillies knew they were sitting on something hot. The right-hander's fastball tops 94-95 mph, but his bread-and-butter pitch is a nasty, late-breaking curve.
Additional points:
-- Gillick talked with manager Charlie Manuel earlier in the week about the lineup, including Pat Burrell's role in it. Once again, Gillick attempted to "dress up" Burrell's numbers, as Enrico from the 700 Level also noted (Thanks for the heads-up on this interview, Enrico).
-- Because of control problems, Fabio Castro does not project into a late inning reliever just yet, but has the ability to be there down the road.
-- The amount of time Wes Helms sees at third base will be determined in Clearwater. Jody Mac wondered if it would be something like 70 percent.
-- Gillick did not get into too many specifics regarding contract negotiations, but suggested that Ryan Howard's contract will be dealt with in February after the remaining arbitration candidates - Chase Utley, Brett Myers and Geoff Geary - are resolved. He also indicated that Ruben Amaro's talks with the arbitration players were progressing.
Winter league playoff heroics
Several players had big nights in the winter leagues, reports senior correspondent Martin Smith. Carlos Ruiz hit a grand slam for Licey in Dominican League, Karim Garcia hit two homers for the Tomato Growers' win in Mexico, and Chris Roberson has been hitting well and scoring runs in front of Vinny Castlla and Euribel Durazo, also in Mexico.

The U.S. Congress has been asked to expedite U.S. shipments of natural gas to Central Europe. Four Central European countries--Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia --have written Speaker John Boehner and are writing Senate Leader Harry Reid--asking for Congressional action to speed permits to export natural gas.
If the U.S. Government wants to do anything that will counter Vladimir Putin's invasion of the Crimea without using the military, this is a sound proposal. The Central Europeans whose countries once were under Soviet domination know that their ability to resist Putin's intimidation will be stronger if they have a new supply of gas.
Assertions that it would take until "the end of 2015" to get gas to European markets should not delay a decision by Congress. First, if the priority is high, normal processes can be speeded up--as they are in wartime. Second, just announcing the policy will be a clear encouragement to the Europeans.

Pork time! £350m in Health Service mail-etcetera cloud deals up for grabs
The contract for a massive NHS email system is up for grabs under a £350m government IT pitch. The Crown Commercial Service has published a tender calling on providers of cloud-based email services to submit their bids for a two-year contract to run the next version of NHSMail. NHSMail is the national email and director service …
Wouldn't it be cheaper, easier and more secure to just sign up all the users with a gmail account?
You could use Yahoo then GCHQ would archive all your x-ray images for you aswell
Re: Gmail
Oh dear you have just opened a can of worms.
Duck and Cover!
Re: Gmail
Yep, then the NSA wouldn't even need to compromise the NHS network to get intimately private medical material about people, they could just demand it all from the service provider.
Great idea.
Re: Gmail
Well it saves GCHQ having to copy it to a USB stick for them and then leave it on a train
Any of those "clouds" in the UK?
Or will US companies play the "safe harbor" provision?
Re: Any of those "clouds" in the UK?
As an IT Security Officer in the NHS all I can say is.. they'll have put that in the contract surely.
Then head back to my corner and cry.
The wonders of tenders
The contract is to run for 2 years, can you imagine all the setup costs that have to be included in a 2 year contract to support 1/2m accounts and that's not including the capital cost of systems if the system can't just be deployed to current cloud services.
The only real winner is going to be Microsoft yet again via all the licence fees they will be charging.
Re: The wonders of tenders
Actually, I don't understand the "20 suppliers" part. They want to split the mail service up over 20 different providers? With different mail systems? Calendar interoperability and directory services would become a nightmare. Or are they splitting the platform into different bits? Mail, directory, etc, going to different vendors? If so, who gets to host it all?
Re: The wonders of tenders
It's not NHSmail that's being tendered. It's the framework agreement. After that NHSmail gets tendered through the framework.
A vision
I see Office 365 in their future....
I'm not even related to Septic Peg either.
So does it just prove
Crown Commercial Service doesn't understand "The Cloud" ?
I dread to think about the unencrypted personal medical data being emailed in a public cloud somewhere in cyberspace.
Re: So does it just prove
Not true, I'm afraid. The tender is for a framework for secure email.
The previous version was better and still runs
I think.
It was built on Exim...
Not Quite Right
As I understand it the framework is for the entirety of the public sector, not just NHSmail. The data will be housed in the UK in accordance with Government policies. There's a better description on the EHI site:

PARKER, Colo. (AP) - A Parker, Colo., woman was devastated when her dog was hit by a minivan last week and the driver's insurance company told her they'd pay for one or two trips to the vet and would then "total out" her dog.
Farmers' Insurance sent Marcia Pinkstaff a letter stating it would reimburse her for the initial trip to the veterinarian and would consider paying for a follow-up exam but nothing more.
According to KMGH-TV (http://bit.ly/mYGv1u), a spokesman for Farmers said the phrase "totaling out" is industry jargon and refers to the property damage part of a policy.
Farmers' vice president Jerry Davies says he's sorry about the circumstances because he also has a dog.

Infrastructure & Operations (I&O) professionals, in the age of Bring-Your-Own (BYO) technology, are keeping closer tabs on the comings and goings of the consumer market. Most of the devices they find their companies' employees using come from consumer retail, whether from physical retail locations like the Apple Store or Best Buy, or online venues like Amazon or Dell.com.
Samsung announced yesterday that it will be opening "Samsung Experience Shops" -- based on a store-within-a-store concept -- in 1,400+ Best Buy locations in the US in coming weeks and months. By the second half of the year, Samsung will possess a significant retail presence tailored to its own devices and staffed with sales associates with greater knowledge of its products. CNET reports: "The shops in large-format Best Buy stores will include blue-shirted consultants who are employed and trained by Samsung, as well as Best Buy staffers who receive special instruction."
Apple, of course, has enjoyed incredible success with its Apple Stores since they opened in North America in 2001. The Apple Store has been a powerful pillar of Apple's overall consumer strategy because of:

Today the European Commission fined Microsoft €561 million ($732 million) for failing to live up to a previous legal agreement. As the New York Times reported it, "the penalty Wednesday stemmed from an antitrust settlement in 2009 that called on Microsoft to give Windows users in Europe a choice of Web browsers, instead of pushing them to Microsoft's Internet Explorer." The original agreement stipulated that Microsoft would provide PC users a Browser Choice Screen (BCS) that would easily allow them to choose from a multitude of browsers.
Without commenting on the legalities involved (I'm not a lawyer), I think there are at least two interesting dimensions to this case. First, the transgression itself could have been avoided. Microsoft admitted this itself in a statement issued on July 17, 2012: "Due to a technical error, we missed delivering the BCS software to PCs that came with the service pack 1 update to Windows 7." The company's statement went on to say that "while we believed when we filed our most recent compliance report in December 2011 that we were distributing the BCS software to all relevant PCs as required, we learned recently that we've missed serving the BCS software to the roughly 28 million PCs running Windows 7 SP1." Subsequently, today Microsoft took responsibility for the error. Clearly some execution issues around SP1 created a needless violation.

Finnish investor eyes railway stake, Ansip reiterates state's interest
Feb 15, 2006
Staff and wire reports
TALLINN - VR, Finland's national railway company, has expressed an interest in buying the controlling stake in Estonian Railway from current shareholders, Finnish media reported.
Prime Minister Andrus Ansip, meanwhile, said the state was still interested in acquiring the asset 's a 66 percent stake in the Estonian Railway 's if the price was reasonable. Economy Ministry officials have reportedly claimed a fair price would be 2.2 billion kroons (141 million euros).
The Taloussanomat newspaper in Finland reported last week that Henri Kuitunen, VR Group president, said that planning of the deal was still in the early stages.
Kuitunen has met with Economy and Communications Minister Edgar Savisaar but not with executives of Baltic Rail Service, the company that owns the 66 percent stake and, after five years of managing the company, has opted to bail out over dissatisfaction with government policies. "Negotiations are still in such an early stage that we haven't contacted the shareholders yet," he said.
The main issue for VR was what would become of the infrastructure, Kuitunen explained. "In Finland we don't own the infrastructure," he said, adding that VR was not interested in owning infrastructure in Estonia either.
Government officials who favor the sale, including all three coalition parties, have also stressed that the government should not be involved in cargo transit but should own the rails.
Baltic Rail Service reportedly wants to receive 2.5 's 3.0 billion kroons for its stake. Kuitunen, however, would neither comment on the price nor on whether the government's 34 percent interest made VR less enthusiastic about the investment.
Although other investors have reportedly met with BRS, only VR has visited the Economy Ministry, a ministry official said.
As Heido Vitsur, adviser to the minister of economy and communications, told the Baltic News Service, "But there have been hints through various channels that the wish exists to meet and speak about the railway too."
For now, the state remains the only investor with a concrete offer on the table.
Prime Minister Ansip, speaking to Estonian Radio on Feb. 10, said, "In making the decision about buying the shares the main argument will be the price. If the price is favorable we will buy, but if it's not economically favorable, we won't buy."
He stressed that the "goal is not to start paying extra on Russian transit at any cost 's that is not in the interest of the Estonian people and the government."
Ansip would not reveal how much the government is prepared to pay for the majority stake, but admitted that the sum was to the tune of 2.2 billion kroons.
The prime minister said that while BRS has in every way tried to suggest it was the government that showed the initiative to buy back the majority shares, actually the opposite was true. "It's BRS that is interested in selling the shareholding," Ansip said.
The government is expected to decide about buying back the shares in Eesti Raudtee next week.
Juri Kao, a member of BRS' supervisory board, has expressed doubts as to whether the state is able to make an offer for the 66 percent shareholding in Eesti Raudtee.
Meanwhile, it was reported last week that Edward Burkhardt, an owner of BRS and chairman of the supervisory board of Estonian Railway, is bidding for 100 percent of Cargo Slovakia, a Slovakian rail operator, via his holding Rail World Inc.
Rail World holds 27.88 percent of the shares in Baltic Rail Service.
A report published in the Slovak Spectator said Rail World had placed a bid in the Cargo Slovakia privatization tender as part of a consortium with MID Europa Parntners and Penta. The consortium offered 330 million euros for 100 percent of the rail company.
The bid was the second highest after a 340 million euro joint bid by Rail Cargo Austria and J&T.
However, the size of the bids did not meet the Slovakian government's expectations. The newspaper wrote that uncertainty about the fees for using rail infrastructure was one of the reasons for the low offers.
Slovakia's transport minister originally estimated that the state could get 390 's 530 million euros for the shares

A Perfect Mess Lyrics - Sahara Hotnights
You haven't slept
You've been out all night
You've seen it getting lighter
You're a perfect mess
You have no regrets
Though you look like the animal bit you
Take one more step
Did you just forget
He's at home, in bed awake now
And you're still undressed
But you're warm and blessed
Only waiting for the final breakdown
You've had your fun
You can't dance no more
You've seen it getting colder
Ms. All Alone can't put her smile back on
Now the glory days are over
Face one more fact
There's no turning back
And you can't be under cover
The lights are out
But you're wide awake
Can't take it any higher
What have you done?
You're so completely lost in this lonely town
Where have you gone?
Can you find you're way out of it on your own
Now that you've blown away every chance
You ever got
Tell me, are you proud now
You're gonna reap just what you saw

Product Description
Scivias, her major religious work, consists of twenty-six visions, which are set down literally as she saw them, and are then explained exegetically. A few of the topics covered in the visions are the charity of Christ, the nature of the universe, the kingdom of God, the fall of man, sanctification, and the end of the world. Special emphasis is given to the sacraments of marriage and the Eucharist, in response to the Cathar doctrine. As a group the visions form a theological summa of Christian doctrine.
At the end of the Scivias are hymns of praise and a short play, probably an early draft of Ordo virtutum, the first known morality play. Hildegard is remarkable for being able to unite "vision with doctrine religion with science, charismatic jubilation with prophetic indignation, and longing for social order with the quest for social justice." This volume is especially significant for feminist historians and theologians. It elucidates the life of medieval women, and is a striking example of a special form of Christian spirituality.

Planets cover our galaxy - we are not alone
Summary: Recent discoveries of exoplanets by NASA's Kepler project and other research indicates that we may soon find habitable planets orbiting nearby stars.

Astronomers have found at least 10 planets to be homeless - floating freely without a parent star. It's theorized that these Jupiter-sized planets were booted from emerging star systems.

NASA announced the incredible results for its Kepler program in 2011. It started out with the discovery of the first rocky planet, then moved on to other discoveries such as a six-planet solar system and a planet orbiting one star of a binary star system. Kepler claims over 1,000 planet discoveries and 170 multiple planet solar systems.

Five Guys Westport
- w
- whatmeworry4 Dec 23, 2009 05:46 AM
Good burgers creeping closer to Stamford.
re: Scott_R
Five Guys is like In 'N Out in California. A pleasant diversion from BK and McD every so often. If you ever fly through Washington - Dulles (IAD) airport, you can sample their food at the dreaded - A - gates. FYI, they also do a decent breakfast. Their 'gimmick'? Everything is fresh. Wouldn't it be nice if the others guys used the same gimmick?
re: dhammer53
Funny gimmick, using fresh meat and then charring it into a hockey puck.
re: dhammer53
I beg to differ.....Five Guys does NOT compare in any way to In 'n Out. It is much more expensive, less tasty and greasier. It may be an In 'n Out wannabe but does not hold a candle to the real thing. I would rather go to a locally operated burger place in CT than to Five Guys.
5 guys is pretty damn good, however i prefer the fries/onion rings from cheeburber... unfortunately cheeburger does not hotdogs...
re: menton1
I can't stand the policy for well done burgers, but 5 Guys are still pretty good. As to why, it's no secret. Same reason you can't get a medium-rare burger at Wendy's, McDonalds, BK, Outback, Chili's, and on and on and on.
Risk of e-coli, and the chains are not willing to pay to insure against it (which is probably bad P.R. for them anyway -- like buying off a death or 2) or take their chances with careful meat handling.
Since thisplace is not open yet, why doesn't everyone wait to see if it is any good. Jfood understands that the franchisees for this one are some ex-hedge fund guys who may be in it for the money versus the food.
Jfood will give it a try when it opens. But from New Canaan and twenty minutes in his pocket he is not going west but driving east for a great burger.
Since this is a chain with strict rules, no "waiting for it to open" will be necessary to know what the food will be like. 5 Guys burgers are ONLY served well done. And they have no good explanation for this peculiar rule. Shoe leather, anyone?
re: menton1
We tried it once (the one in Newtown or Monroe)...we all are medium rare burger eaters. While I didn't find it to be dried out, hockey puck, shoe leather, I did find it to be extremely tasteless. The kind of food you keep taking bites of looking for the flavor, only to realize it just isn't there.
The fries on top were good and crispy...ones that were underneath were pretty soggy. This was a while ago and to be fair, we did drive at least 15 minutes home before eating. Perhaps they are better right off the griddle? I'll give it another try once the Westport one opens since it's close by...
re: sibeats
That's what I found, by and large--that it had the taste of cardboard if not exactly the texture. Perhaps "hockey puck" was, while glib, not the most precise description--not that it mattered exactly WHAT KIND of bad it was.
re: Scott_R
Because it was so well done, it is hard to tell if it is beef or beef with a soy mixture and some added grease. It has minimal taste other than char.
re: Fred19
I am probably the biggest food skeptic at-large today; I won't eat at 95 percent-plus places due to cleanliness, food issues, etc but what you guys are saying about Cinco Hombres is just not right.
What are you guys, the grandkids of Ray Kroc? Cinco Hombres makes FAST FOOD (so no cooking to order, no rare-medium-rare) in the tradition of the "great" hamburger chains but with a critical difference......
The food is much better and the prices are much higher. For me, that's heading in the right direction market-wise. And if a place opened up where they sold hamburgers that cost 15 bucks but were like grass-fed or organic or whatever, with no european-style waiters acting like they own the table, I'd go there also.
BTW when the HECK was it determined that the major chans would sell double cheeseburgers for one dollar? Talk about hideous hockey pucks...Talk about turd burgers.....You guys need to aim your vitriol at Wendy's and Burger King. Cinco Hombres is not the problem here. Sorry.
re: shark_attack
Just because McD's and BK have food that is basically inedible doesn't mean that one can't criticize 5 Guys. Firstly, 5 guys has about 100 stores (and expanding apparently) compared to upwards of 10K stores each for the other 2. And if anyone has glanced at the book FAST FOOD NATION and frequents CH as a foodie they realize that these Giant chains are not only providing inedible food but have all sorts of issues including cleanliness and environmental.
My main "beef" (pun intended) with 5G is their insistence on cooking Well done. They don't explain, and if their highly self-touted meat quality and handling is so superior why the heck do they have to do this? When I can get a MR burger at 5Guys, I will sing their praise.
re: menton1
They have a bit in their FAQ about cooking well done, though I think it rather sidesteps the issue:
re: Scott_R
Yes, they side step and don't explain, but they don't have to. This is an insurance issue, plain and simple. Their insurance underwriters have undoubtedly told them - "we don't care how clean and safe your meat-handling, if you want coverage, you need to cook well done." It's no different than an underwriter insisting the warehouse have a fire alarm and sprinkler system installed.
re: menton1
I can't get a rare burger at Applebee's in NY. And no, I don't have first hand knowledge of this precise issue, but I do have firsthand knowledge of the underwriting practices of some rather large insurance companies. This is the kind of thing that is an issue. And where a mom and pop restaurant may get insured for a few million dollars, a chain most likely has hundreds of millions in liability insurance, and has to get directly involved in excess insurance, umbrella coverage, even reinsurance in order to get a package that fully protects them. And because of the large numbers involved, you see more conditions with respect to practices. It may not mean the difference between coverage or no coverages, but it could have a huge impact on premiums.
re: sbp
Well, sure. I emailed asking them about precisely this and received a nasty reply in return.
menton1: I'm not sure about what you mean about first-hand knowledge. There have been lawsuits from people who've been sickened by ground meat, the biggest one being:
A company might prefer to take the lowest-risk route over customer choice.
re: Scott_R
I went back to 5 Guys today at 11:30 am. I was fairly shocked to find their operation in full swing, with 50 customers either eating, ordering, or mostly, waiting for food.
They had a new guy there today, a guy for him this was NOT his 2nd day in the burger business. For he was an expert expediter, ordering around everyone in the "kitchen" and acting with an efficiency and certainty bespeaking years, not days, in the burger business.
Today it only took 15 minutes to get my food, 2 "little" cheeseburgers to go.
The burgers are what I would call very ok, or pretty darned reasonably decent, with a positive bias:)
And their operation is a model of capitalist burger efficiency. As I stood watching, I felt a Henry-Fordish pride in the benefits of assembly-line style burger production and task specialization welling up within me.
And I live 30 seconds away......That's what I'd call a winning burger formula:)
re: shark_attack
Have you still not tried the fries? A small can easily serve 2-3.
re: shark_attack
This place is polarizing, just like all other 5G locations. For example, the burgers I've eaten in their DC locations were cooked through but in no way were they "dry, flavorless hockey pucks". They were juicy and nicely flavored and extremely edible. On the other hand, the burger I had in their NYC g village location was dry and flavorless and inedible. Location, location location as they say...
But, it would also be complete hogwash to say that all burgers cooked well done means they are dry and devoid of any "juicy" element. All down to the meat composition and the skill of the burger man.
I look forward to trying the westport location but I'm not champing at the bit to get there. It is what it is. Now, what we need is for shake shack to open up out here. Then I will be happy...
5 guys is a step up from mcdonalds, BK, wendy's and even places in fairfield county like swanky franks.
It'll just be a place to get a quick burger when you're hungry. plus the new one in westport is less than 5 min from my house. other than that I don't see myself going there all that often
re: wreckers00
Opens today.
re: shark_attack
Make mine well done!
re: menton1
Ok, I just ate at 5 guys...
I walked in and found the place half full of teenagers by 11:30 am on both sides of the counter. There were 16 employees working hard, none over the age of 20 save the manager, and from the look of things, it was everybody's very first day in the burger business.
The line to order was short; the line for food was long. I waited over 15 minutes for a Cheesburger, as pimply-faced teenagers scrambled to create menu items as music blasted on the stereo. The place has a high energy feel, which is nice. So how was the burger, you're wondering...?
The short answer is, pretty darn ok. I order a single and got a double, no problem, at least it had catsup and pickles, as I had ordered it. And it was....Kind of reminiscent of when one grinds up some pretty good chuck at home, steams the bun, and throws lots of American cheese on top. You kind of can't go wrong.
If you've ever found yourself wondering why the major burger chains don't just raise their prices and start offering good tasting food for a change, this place is for you. It's not cheap. My burger, whatever it was and a regular drink was over 11 bucks. I guess they did charge me for a double. Anyway, like the other fellow said, I live a hop/skip /jump from Cinco Hombres, So I will be going there.
Addendum: I found the burger fully cooked but not dry or hockey puck-ish at all, just cooked. And of course, it isn't on the same level taste-wise as some of the premium joints we discuss on here a lot, Cherrystreet, Black Duck, those would still be the go-to places that I know of. But on the other side of the great divide, places that don't serve drinks, This is about as good as it gets. Around here, at least.
Next time....The French Fries!
re: shark_attack
FYI, a regular hamburger comes with two patties, you have to order the little burger or specify that you only want one pattie
re: shark_attack
Your 11 bucks did include fries, right? Because the double patty burger is about $6, drink about $2, if I recall correctly.
re: shark_attack
So I returned to 5 Guys today at 11:30 am in order to beat the crowds. I shouldn't have worried so much.
When I got there the place empty, no line to order, 5 workers down from 16 and they had their operation, such as it is, down to a science.
Now understand....It still took at least 15 minutes to get my food, but I felt better about things in general (being in a room with any more than about 3 people under the age of 20 makes me slightly nervous) and the woman who essentially prepared my food was really nice, smiled a lot and the burger was a 5 guys burger, but good.....The bun had a more fluffy consistency this time, and the beef was quite juicy and tasted "alright -to- pretty good", as these things do. I didn't like the pickles too much but the bacon burger w/catsup is essentially a winner for 5 bucks and change, no tipping, and no one with scary tats looming over you ruefully wishing you'd get soused before noon:)...Just kidding, I love the Duck.
When I left 5 Guys there were fewer than 20 customers and the average order size seemed smaller while I was there (purely anecdotal observation).
re: shark_attack
Thanks for the update SA and welcome back, we missed ya. Seems like water finding its natural level. Next stop for you when the weather gets better is the ho-down grill at Stews. :-)
re: jfood
The gloves are coming off and I'm ready to speak freely about the Five Guys experience.
For anyone who'se ever experienced true burger greatness, Five Guys sucks.
And it's expensive. A small burger is 5 bucks. A small fries is 3 bucks. And I have to say, that price point on the fries is just ridiculous, considering that they bestow enough of those greasy little calorie monsters upon you at that price to feed a family of four. It's only if you are alone that ordering them makes no sense. And then, should you dain to not order fries, when they present you with the "burger" they shout your order number as well as "No Fries!" as though you'd just grabbed the cash register and were making for the door, which, in a way, I suppose you are.
More later.
re: shark_attack
"For anyone who'se ever experienced true burger greatness, Five Guys sucks. "
Agreed. Burgers are OK, if you dig well done with no juice at all. And their hot dog buns are terrible. My kids wouldn't even touch them when we visited the Woodbridge/NH spot last week. They did like the fries though...even though we took home enough to feed another family. I thought the fries were OK. Now if they could only serve them with skins on every one.
Won't rush back...but I would say 5G works in a pinch over "Fast" burger options.
re: LorenV
I'm all on board for the notion that, "Five Guys Sucks." I went there on a recommendation of a friend from Darien, when I asked when the local Burgers Shakes and Fries would open (I'm now told mid-October as they are re-doing the floors). The burger was well done, EXTREMELY greasy, and tasteless. All the free toppings in the world could not remedy this. Nor could the lousy bun, which became soggy FAST with all the grease. I'll wait for BSF in Darien to open if I get a burger craving.
re: Jadelise
Yes, yes, I know it's cool to hate Five Guys. Like it or not, they make a great fast food burger - way better than the competition, and the fries are light years beyond as well.
re: ratbuddy
it is not cool to like or dislike 5Gs, it is an opinion. if you enjoy this place, great, but many of us do not like it at all, and cool has nothing to do with the dislike, no more than wanting to be a member of a large crowd has anything to do with liking it.
When I saw the person manning the grill put the spatula down on each "burger" and press hard making a hockey puck I was appalled! I complained to the management [Orange CT - that's OK because the franchise has regions - so you get the same management] & they said they would take care of it. NoFWay! Repeated visits resulted in a hockey puck - eat a hot dog or grilled cheese.
A bargain!
What Mac Donald's and Wetson's were in the 1960's before frozen pre-blanched spuds were endemic in the U S of A.
Otherwise in the parlance of my grandmother ---- FEH!
re: ratbuddy
I think the objection needs to be clarified. Mashing when you put the meat down on the griddle flattens the burger, assuming it's not already a formed patty. Mashing WHILE IT'S COOKING (especially after flipping) pushes out the juices.
re: Scott_R
Yes - while it was cooking - AKA making a hockey puck without being charred on the outside.
Real well done is OK by me, but not ersatz [chopped] beef jerky.
re: algct
I always think when there that if these five guys would merely upgrade the quality of the beef they would literally RAKE in money. Key thing....That's the franchisees who would make more money.
The owners are busy making money hand over fist selling franchises with little incentive to change anything at present.
Then, if they would pull out the flattops and put in flame grilling, they would do that much better.
re: ratbuddy
jfood thinks that giving feedback to management is an important aspect of serving the customer. Could you imagine if sales started sliding and the manager has no idea why? The customer feedback is one of the MOST valuable business insights a company can receive.
Granted that in the Fast Food world of Mickey D, BK, Wendy's, etc. 5 Guys is top of the heap, the East Coast In 'n Out.
But 5G isn't even FAST food. and hardly a bargain. The two times I was there, the order took 15 minutes and cost twice as much as MD with twice the grease (esp. fries) and calories......
I will give them credit. Their PR is superb -- they don't advertise and through a skillful manipulation of the media (Obama on NBC nightly), have created a real following. The Emporer's New Hamburger IMO.
re: louuuuu
nicely put L. $10 for burger fries and a soda is a gimmee putt from real burgers in the area. unbelievable word of mouth and targetted PR, a business model where the customer can "Make it My Way" (what a novel idea) and then cook and serve.
re: BiscuitBoy
Okeedokee, jfood will bite and calculator seems to work well for a single but not for the situation where kids are involved.
Black Duck Cheeseburger 7; fries 1 (if ordered with a burger); soda 2; Child that includes all plus ice cream 6; tip 3 = $19
So math states if you go by yourself it is $10 at 5Gs and $12 at BG (delta is the tip you leave at BG); If you take one child it is a push and 2 children it is less expensive at BG plus the kids get ice cream. Which is a better location for lunch with kids is a personal thing.
So to compare to BG is a losing proposition, same prices and real burgers versus hockey pucks. You should compare to Wendy's, McDs or BK since, as you state, "for what it is" and those are the comps, not BG, or Cherry Street or the Burger place in SONO. IMHO
Black Duck Cafe
605 Riverside Ave, Westport, CT 06880
re: BiscuitBoy
Ok,BB for argument's sake, let's forget this nonsense about bar rooms (a total red herring,) and pit 5 Guys against its own genre: an order-wait- pickup-and seat yourself hamburger emporium. One that serves thousands of hamburgers a week..
I happened to be in the City last night and stopped in at the UWS Shake Shack. Here are their prices:
Double Hamburger 5.75
Fries 2.75
Soda 2.00
Tip -
Total 10.50
That's more or less in the same $ ballpark as 5G ... but the taste, texture, and quality of Shake Shack are in another league. (admittedly 5G would be the clear champ in a hockey rink.)
btw, waiting time was 8 minutes 21 seconds -- not the 15 minutes that ticked away my last two experiences at 5G (one in Westport, the other in the City)
And more families there than I've ever seen at 5G.
re: louuuuu
Absolutely louuuuu
Jfood wonders if people have the same non-alcohol standards in their own homes.
re: BiscuitBoy
I've never had to wait at Five Guys - they take phone orders.
re: ratbuddy
yep...Biscuitboy doesn't think it's rocket science either
re: BiscuitBoy
You never have to wait at 5G because there is honestly "never" anyone waiting on line, and to me, that says it all.
Oh once you're there you do have to wait, while they cook your totally nondescript fast food quality burger to order, making a show out of what otherwise would hold very little interest. Once, the very last time I was there, I didn't have to wait; they had many burgers going in advance of lunch or soemthing. On that occasion my burger was assembled ass-backwards, with the bottom bun on top, the top one on the bottom, and curiously, the bacon ABOVE the meat, so you couldn't even flip it over and pretend it was right side up.
I still think the prices are OUTRAGEOUS, I'm sorry.
5 bucks for a small puck? Cmon. 3 bucks for a "small" fries?
I'd much rather pay 2 bucks for half as many fries, but if you know the fry biz you know they are cleaning up on the fries, and then, literally cleaning up as many of those fries find their way into the circular file cab:)
Forget 5 Guys......Except for the smart sons of the founder, who decided, probably after reading Fast Food Nation about a decade ago, to begin selling franchises, which, if you know anything about it, are a complete cash cow. Those boys brought in something like 80 million in franchise fees, and yes, that sure do beat flippin' flippin' pucks, don't it baby?

Save to My Recipes
Christmas Cutouts with Vanilla Icing
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Additional sugar
- 4 cups (or more) sifted powdered sugar (sifted, then measured)
- 3 tablespoons (or more) whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Colored sugar crystals, sprinkles, and/or decors
- Food-safe colored markers (such as FooDoodler pens; see note*)
PREPARATIONView Step-by-Step Directions
For cookies:
Sift first 3 ingredients into medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat butter and 1 cup sugar in large bowl to blend well. Add egg, sour cream, and vanilla; beat 1 minute. Beat in dry ingredients in 2 additions until just blended. Gather dough together; divide in half. Flatten each half into disk; wrap in plastic and chill 1 hour. DO AHEAD Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled. Soften dough slightly at room temperature before rolling out.
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Sprinkle work surface and top of dough disks with additional sugar. Working with 1 disk at a time, roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness (dough will be very soft). Using assorted 2- to 3-inch cookie cutters, cut out cookies. Transfer to prepared sheets, spacing 1 inch apart. Gather scraps and roll out on sugared surface; cut out more cookies. Repeat until all dough is used. Chill all cookies on baking sheets at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake cookies, 1 sheet at a time, until light golden at edges, about 12 minutes. Transfer cookies to racks and cool completely.
For icing:
Combine 4 cups powdered sugar, 3 tablespoons milk, and vanilla in medium bowl. Stir until icing is well blended, smooth, and spreadable, adding more milk by teaspoonfuls if too thick or more sugar by tablespoonfuls if too thin. Using small icing spatula or table knife, spread thin layer of icing atop each cookie. If using colored sugar crystals, sprinkle over cookies before icing sets. If using food-safe colored markers, let icing dry about 30 minutes; decorate cookies as desired. DO AHEAD Can be made 3 days ahead. Store airtight between sheets of waxed paper at room temperature.
*The Bon Appetit test-kitchen staff used food-safe colored markers, called FooDoodler pens, to decorate these cookies. The markers are available at Sur La Table stores or can be ordered from King Arthur Flour (800-827-6836) or bakerscatalogue.com.

Q. The legacy plate count is now more than 7,700. Does this mean DMV is going to start issuing the legacy plates? If so, when?
A: No. According to the statute, one of the plates must achieve a minimum of 7,500 orders before January 1, 2015. The combined total is not relevant to determining if a sufficient number of plates have been ordered. Legislation introduced the California Legacy License Plate program offering vehicle owners the opportunity to purchase replicas of California license plates similar to those issued in the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. Customers can visit the Legacy Plate webpage for updates and information: www.dmv.ca.gov/legacyplates/index.htm
Q. I want to order a personalized license plate for my sister. How do I know if the sequence of letters and words that I want is available?
A. The California Department of Motor Vehicles Web site makes this easier than ever! By visiting www.dmv.ca.
Don't Stand In Line, Go Online! Doing business with the DMV has never been easier. The DMV offers an array of services to customers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week through its Website including online advance appointments for written and drive tests; vehicle registration and driver license renewals, selection of personalized license plates, changes of address and payment of fees via secure debit transactions. Customers can also effect transactions by calling DMV customer service at 1-800-777-0133. DMV is a department under the California State Transportation Agency (CalSTA).

SportsCenter is big on the highlights reel. Sadly, we don't have the same thing when it comes to movies. Well, most people don't have the same thing.
If you have a Kaleidescape System, you now have Kaleidescape Scenes. This new feature puts memorable moments of your movie collection at your fingertips. In other words, it's like your own highlights reel.
"I rediscovered Indiana Jones running from the boulder in Raiders of the Lost Ark, and then jumped immediately to Casablanca's 'Here's Looking at You Kid'," said Greg Young, a Kaleidescape owner from Clovis, Calif. "My Kaleidescape System reconnected me with these movies and many more."

text: Lungs Found on LA Sidewalk Not Human Print article Send a Tip by Dan Riehl 13 Jun 2012 post a comment Lungs found on a Compton sidewalk this weekend have been determined to not be those of a human, according to coroner's Assistant Chief Ed Winter. The are thought to be of animal origin, though nothing in the article rules out zombie lungs. At least we know they didn't result from some Hollywood production meeting gone wrong. The discovery was made by a woman walking in the 13100 block of Avalon Boulevard on Sunday. She snapped a photo before contacting the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department that evening. Blood and tissue samples were used to determine that the lungs weren't human; however, no specific species of animal has been determined at this time.
