WASHINGTON D.C. -- Josh Hutcherson will receive the "CinemaCon Breakthrough Performer of the Year Award," it was announced today by CinemaCon's managing director, Mitch Neuhauser. CinemaCon, the official convention of The National Association of Theatre Owners (NATO), the largest and most important gathering of cinema owners and operators from around the world, will be held April 23 - 26, 2012 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Hutcherson will be presented with this special honor at the "CinemaCon Big Screen Achievement Awards" ceremony to take place on Thursday evening, April 26, in The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. The Coca-Cola Company, the official presenting sponsor of CinemaCon, will host the final night gala awards program.
"With an already impressive resume of films under his belt, Hutcherson is one of the most accomplished young actors of his time," noted Neuhauser. "With the release of 'The Hunger Games,' Hutcherson is poised to take the movie world by storm, and we could not be more excited to present such a talented young actor with the 'CinemaCon Breakthrough Performer of the Year Award.'"
Hutcherson can currently be seen in what has been one of the most highly anticipated films of the year, "The Hunger Games," which took in an astounding $152.5 million opening weekend at the box office. Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the Capitol of the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Hutcherson stars as Peeta Mellark, who along with 16-year-old Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence), must represent District 12 as "tributes." Mentored by drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy (Woody Harrelson), they along with the other tributes must fight one another until one survivor remains. The film also stars Liam Hemsworth, Stanley Tucci and Elizabeth Banks.
Earlier this year, Hutcherson starred in "Journey 2: Mysterious Island," and he can be seen later this year in the upcoming "Red Dawn," "Detention" and "Seven Days in Havana." Additional film credits include "The Kids Are All Right," "The Vampire's Assistant," "Journey to the Center of the Earth," "Bridge to Terabithia" and "The Polar Express," among many others.
Los Angeles, CA -- IMAX Corporation (NYSE:IMAX; TSX:IMX) and Lionsgate (NYSE: LGF) today announced that the limited release of The Hunger Games: The IMAX Experience grossed $10.6 million in IMAX® theatres worldwide during its three-day opening weekend beginning March 23. Domestically, the film grossed $152.5 million, of which $10.2 million was generated in 268 IMAX theatres for a per-screen average of $38,000. The results mark an IMAX domestic box office opening weekend record for a digital-only release and for a non-sequel 2D release.
"The reaction to the The Hunger Games has been remarkable and we're thrilled that fans have sought out our format as an ideal way to experience this global phenomenon," said Greg Foster, Chairman and President of IMAX Filmed Entertainment. "Congratulations to Lionsgate, producer Nina Jacobson and director Gary Ross for this remarkable adaptation - what an amazing way to kick off our relationship."
"We believe the IMAX release of The Hunger Games helped broaden the audience beyond young females to include our core fanboy audience," said Richard L. Gelfond, CEO of IMAX. "With sellouts all weekend and IMAX fans coming out in record numbers, these results clearly show that IMAX is a powerful way to eventize a movie."
"We are absolutely thrilled that so many fans saw The Hunger Games in the IMAX format," said Lionsgate's EVP of Distribution and General Sales Manager David Spitz. "The total immersion that IMAX offers surely augmented the gripping story and provided fans with a special way to experience this movie."
The Hunger Games: The IMAX Experience has been digitally re-mastered into the image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience® with proprietary IMAX DMR® (Digital Re-mastering) technology. The crystal-clear images coupled with IMAX's customized theatre geometry and powerful digital audio create a unique environment that will make audiences feel as if they are in the movie.
LOS ANGELES, CA -- Fandango, the nation's leading moviegoer destination, announced today that it sold 22% of opening weekend ticket sales for "The Hunger Games"- marking the largest share of sales for any movie in Fandango's nearly 12-year history. During the weekend's peak ticket-selling periods, Fandango was selling 17 tickets per second, representing the company's top franchise opener, best-selling March release, top-selling mobile weekend and Fandango's top-selling single day (March 23, 2012) for a movie, besting "The Dark Knight" opening day (July 18, 2008).
Fandango's share of all domestic ticket sales for "The Hunger Games" - which took in a projected domestic box office of $155 million* - reshapes Fandango's list of top five shares of opening weekends. The new record-breaker list is as follows:
1. "The Hunger Games" (2012) - 22%
2. "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2" (2011) - 19%
3. "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" (2009) - 18%
4. "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1" (2010) - 17%
5. "Sex and the City" (2008) - 16%
Fandango also broke a record with "Hunger" as the movie with the most tickets ever sold on opening weekend via mobile on Fandango; the previous record-holder was "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2." Friday, March 23 was also the top day for mobile ticket sales in Fandango history.
"Fandango's record- breaking percentage of the film's opening weekend is a testament to the growing popularity of online and mobile ticketing as the way to go to the movies," says Fandango Executive Vice President and General Manager Rick Butler. "It's rare to see the first film in a franchise performing like an established sequel, but 'The Hunger Games' is a true phenomenon. Fans have given it our highest 'Must Go!" rating, with Web and mobile ticket sales still going strong on Monday."
According to a Fandango online survey of thousands of moviegoers, 62% of "Hunger Games" fans plan to see the movie more than once in the theater, indicating repeat viewings throughout the week. As of Monday, the film still accounts for 87% of all daily tickets sold on Fandango.

Growing up on the Island in the late 1960's was a different time. Only 4 HS playing organized football at that time with Leone and Samoana consistenly the two best. Now AS has over 70K people and big time NFL players...way to go Samoa!

Oregon Ducks only need about 4 or 5 big-motor defensive lineman and their NCAA title dreams come true. Impressed with Utah Utes ability to recruit the islands, including Tonga. They have had success in converting rugby players into tackle football stars.

That rumor was started by loko leaga bitches in the 90s based of off an espn interivew. They were blasting him on all the samoan forums. Well back then if you missed it you were out of luck cuz there was no YouTube. Now there is YouTube and the interview has been posted. Nowhere has he ever denied his Samoan heritage. |

Samoans were among the tallest and most robust people. "... 1. Lapérouses conclusion about Samoan customs: the womens behaviour After his chapter describing daily events, Lapérouse wrote a concluding chapter describing his encounter with the Samoans. His summary of the contents, given on the first page of the chapter, says that his remarks will bear on the customs and practices of these people, their crafts and the countrys products. Basis of a belief that they do not all share the same origin ([Lapérouse] Dunmore ed. 1995: 415). Lapérouse speaks first of the names and position of the islands, and refers first of all to Bougainvilles comments.(We thus know that Lapérouse had carefully read the narrative of Bougainvilles circumnavigation of 1766-9). Then he summarises Roggeveens voyage from his reading of Behrenss narrative through the quotations that are in Président de Brossess work of 1756. This was the great compilation, used by all captains of the second half of the 18th century.2 Lapérouse then proceeds to describe the physical appearance of Samoan men,the tallest and most robustly built we have met, and how they are painted or tattooed in such a way that one could almost believe they are clothed(Dunmore ed. 1995: 419). Then he describes the women (we shall return to the passage in its entirety). His last lines about Samoan women concern the girls and contain the words highlighted by Côté via Williamson: Whatever navigators who preceded us might say, I am convinced that at least in the Navigators Islands girls are mistresses of their own favours before marriage, their complaisance casts no dishonour on them, and it is more likely that when they marry they are under no obligation to account for their past behaviour. But I have no doubt that they are required to show more restraint when they are married (ibid.: 420).3 ..." I don't know where you got this from. Of course there were short Samoans but Samoans in general were still one of the tallest and definitely the broadest people on the planet. "Lapérouse then proceeds to describe the physical appearance of Samoan men,the tallest and most robustly built we have met, and how they are painted or tattooed in such a way that one could almost believe they are clothed" |

Thank you for the information regarding that contentious subject. I certainly was taken aback by that, as I recall how an interview that Junior Seau had in Tutuila by KVZK local telvision, I think it was for Public Health(...regarding RHD Rheumatic Heart Disease, and I believe he was talking about that illness, which he stated that he found out that he had while he was young)....the importance of getting medical attention and proper diagnosis etc In that public health interview...he didn't seem at all to be snotty or anything of the sort. He just came across as low key and soft spoken and down to earth real. |

I posted a photo on my Instagram and Facebook when I first got this tattoo at the end of July but didn't really go into the thought behind my new tattoo – and I need to post to my blog more often since I don't really feel like a blogger anymore because I seem to only post on my anniversary and holidays. I like blogging, but Instagram is just soooo easy!
Anyway, this post is about my new tattoo and not my laziness ;o)
This year marks 10 years that I have been a part of the fiber community so I decided to get a new tattoo that will remind me of my love of all things wooly – there are a few people who also have been wool marked so I wanted to put my own spin on things. I went with Woolmark 'Gold':
I chose the location so I can see this tattoo and my wrist bee while I'm knitting ;o) I had a bit of angst regarding this tat, but I finally came to the realization that the only ink that I have that will ever be truly individual is my SbJL bee since that was designed for me (by my friend Heather – check out her new yarn and designs while you're over there!) and is my trademark so it can't be copied.
Anyway, I love my new addition to my tattoo collection and yes, I'm already thinking about what I want next!
Thank you all for all of your wonderful comments on my blogiversary post! Quite a few were from old blogging friends and quite a few were from new ones which helped me remember why I began blogging in the first place! There aren't any knitting groups near me (by 'near' I mean, within a 20 min drive) so when I began knitting, I reached out to the internet to create a virtual knitting group. I'm going to try to post and keep you in my loop – but please don't hate me if I blog about show prep a LOT during the months of April, May, September and October. Deal? ;o)
So! Winners! We have two! I used my handy-dandy number thingy on my phone (yes that's an official name, at least in my head), input how many comments were on the post (92!) and hit the go button:
Comment #49 is:
Cdnbull! Congrats!!
Now for winner #2:
oops it looks like I received email at the same time I took the screenshot! oh well, comment #8 is the winner:
Sara! Congrats!!
Congratulations to both winners, I've sent them both emails to let them know that they've won!
Thanks again to everyone who left a comment, I have more knitting to share and a field trip coming up this weekend to SPA so I'll be back soon!
Nine years ago, I jumped into the blogging world with this post. What followed has been an amazing journey of making new friends, learning new things and expanding my horizons to include a new craft-based business, better photography and being very picky about what kind of yarn and fiber I buy.
I wouldn't have traded a second of it for anything.
What I'd like to do is celebrate the past nine years with a giveaway – leave a comment and I'll draw a winner from them early next week for either a skein of my handspun yarn or $25 off a shop purchase. Tell your friends because if I get enough comments, I'll make that two (or more) winners!
ETA: Okay, we've hit 50 comments, there will be two prizes! Winners will choose between a skein of my handspun yarn or $25 off of a shop purchase!
What's in the photos, you ask? This is my newly-off-the-needles Brickless shawl!
I've wanted one for a while, I love the way it drapes! The pattern calls for worsted weight but I used DK and a slightly smaller needle
I love it.
Details can be found on my Ravelry Project Page
Don't forget to comment to be entered into the drawing – I'll be closing the comments on Sunday night (Feb. 23) then drawing for a winner (or winners) on Monday!
ETA: Comments are closed! I'll be drawing a winner today and posting tomorrow – thank you all for playing! :o)
Whoa time really got away from me this year! No posts from July to December is quite a gap – I'm sorry for the neglect! I've been super busy with Stitched by JessaLu, every year it seems I double my sales (which is awesome!) which means I double my workload (which is stressful but awesome!) which means something has to give and apparently this year it was the blog. and vacuuming. I'd promise to try to do better but we all know how that ends up. ;o)
So to move on to what this post is actually about, my boss (yep that's me) decided I was worthy of a new camera!
That's a shiny new Pentax K-30 – I am in some serious love with this camera. It's SO SHINY. The glass is not new, I only purchased the camera body, but I don't care, the whole thing has me all happy to take pictures again (my old Pentax started having focusing issues, it has gone to get looked at and possibly fixed and R may have a new camera). Wanna see pretty pictures? Okay!
*sigh* I love my new camera. I did no post-processing on those photos, they are posted as shot.
Happy ECF – I'm hoping to talk to you again before (or on) Christmas! ;o)

No complaints except wish they fit a little cleaner due to the price and quote custom fit. But overall install and look was fast and good.

Take your time installing to get alignments just right. Fit is right on. Can't speak as to durability yet, but material seems tough enough. One thing I would have liked is for the entrance side of each seat bottom should have some sort of complete tuck in feature. There is a 3" piece on the front that works great, but it should be all along the edge. Issue is bottom cover, entrance side will move after awhile when getting in truck.

These covers are well made, easy to install (I did it without instructions), and are an exact match to the Crye Multicam pattern. These have to be custom made but I only had to wait a short three weeks for these to be delivered. The only shortfall (4 of 5 stars) is they aren't waterproof. That's a small detractor at most.

I'm pretty new to growing/gardening and this year I decided to create a little indoor cactus garden. I bought some plants at Lowe's and Home Depot. This plant didn't grow for the first several months, but then all of a sudden it has had quite the growth spurt! The new growth looks different than the shape of the original plant. I seem to remember reading somewhere that it was bad if it grew in an irregular shape. Possibly a fungus/disease of some sort? What do you think? Could someone let me know if you think it is healthy? If not, what should I do? Also, do you know what type this is? |

The condition is called etiolation, and is caused by insufficient lighting. Move it to a place with brighter light. I would also remove the etiolated segments, but that is up to you. Christopher |

Half of Americans Still Believe Sadaam Had WMDs
Despite the evidence to the contrary, a new poll finds that half of Americans still believe that Sadaam Hussein had WMDs.
In response to the poll, opinion analyst Steven Kull says that people have a tendency to become "independent of reality" in cases like this.
What's more, some experts believe that the reason some people continue to believe Sadaam had WMDs, can very well be attributed to "a drumbeat of voices from talk radio to die-hard bloggers to the Oval Office, a surprise headline here or there, a rallying around a partisan flag, and a growing need for people, in their own minds, to justify the war in Iraq."
Well, it's no wonder people are so out of touch with reality. We have an incumbent Administration that brags about creating their own reality. Author Ron Suskind wrote an article for the New York Times entitled Without a Doubt. In it, he said that a White House aide once told him that guys like him (Suskind) were in what the Bushies described as "the reality-based community." The aide described people in the reality-based community as those who ''believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality.'' And he went on to tell Suskind ''We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality -- judiciously, as you will -- we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.''
Half of U.S. still believes Iraq had WMD
Without a Doubt
And if you continue to wonder why so many Americans falsely believe Sadaam had WMDs, wonder no more:

Hmm, I'd say a no to both of those. Firstly everyone knows how to use Google

I do think there should be a more in depth flier perhaps outlining some core

adumbrating an example setup - piece for piece - against a (say) Windows

running with a Linux Audio system. If I was a musician or music tech looking
to move over to Linux I'd want to see a list of concrete reasons why I should
be moving and examples of how I can achieve this. To know it can be done is
enough - that's why Ron's (and others) setup is of so much interest to
Whatever though - I have already nailed my up my colours as a firm believer in
Linux Audio as a viable commercial platform (at some point or other, on some
scale or other) so I do tend to veer onto the hopelessly salesmanny pitch.
I think it's worth shouting about in a commercial sense mainly because that
is the language that people understand - if you say it's cool and it's free
people tend to mistrust it. "What's the catch? You must have to be a brain
surgeon to fly it."
An even more paranoid point along the same lines is that if our stand is
popular then other firms (who've paid full price for their stands) may be
keen to point out any flaw in our arguments to keep people wary of Linux
I'm mainly playing devil's advocate here of course.

Learn to Play Guitar Note
When playing any drum, you'll need to learn just how to play the notes. You've to have one, if you want to play any instrument and if you want to play a guitar this is particularly true. Be taught more about major guitar scales by going to our cogent use with. The records are played on the guitars fret board. To learn additional information, please take a look at: guitar software. Learn to play guitar records now and you too can beat the guitars fret board.
You dont have to be afraid of the fret board. Even if it appears that its hard to learn the notes, if you actually want to learn just how to play your guitar, this would not discourage you.
Playing the first songs on your guitar is likely to be easier if you know the notes on the first guitar string. On this string, you will find three notes Elizabeth, F (first fret), and G (third fret). The next chain is B, C (first fret), and D (third fret). Since you know the records, you have to conduct some exercises. Slowly play these notes and make sure that you concentrate to master notes well.
You dont have to say most of the records out loud when youre practicing. You can then slowly play them and do this within your mind. You have to know the records along with their names, and most especially their sounds. Know them by heart. You can begin by playing simply tunes like that of nursery rhymes.
After learning the notes on the very first two strings, you've to continue on the 3rd sequence. G could be the open line and one other note is Really A (second worry). Start playing them together with the other notes youve learned previously, whenever you know these notes already. Again, you need to stick with simple songs. You dont have to work on all the records at once. Make an effort to master all the records and learn them consciously. Even small children can understand guitar records quickly. Follow these steps and in no time, you are able to play the notes on practicing the guitar.
Learning to play guitar notes is going to be quite difficult in the event that you dont have your personal guitar. You cant depend solely on the music sheets that you've. You have to hear the notes being played on the instruments fret board. Many beginners fail to understand since they dont have guitars on the hands. When the notes are learnt by you, advanced music guitar sheets can be now read by you. To get more information, consider checking out: lead guitar.
Nursery rhymes are known by everyone and you still know these songs, even if youre all developed. It will be a lot better to understand the notes by using these simple songs. When you memorize and master the notes, you is now able to play the songs that you like.
Guitar records are not very hard to master as long as guess what happens to do. You dont need a specialist teacher to be able to learn these things. You are able to teach yourself these note classes through the use of DVD programs or internet guitar programs. You may also use an instruction book. However, if the expensive guitar teachers can be afforded by you, you can always employ them. But let as an indication this serve, regardless of how great your instructor is, if you dont have the best perspective in understanding, you will perhaps not learn such a thing.
You see, guitar playing is similar to the instructions that you learn in school. You must know the notes by heart, you've to be motivated and you must be persistent.

another visual treat from Jason Borger assembled from the fantastic and sorely missed Drawing Fish 52 project.
its so good to see it come back to life. enjoy !
click here to access Jason's great blog Fish, Flies & Water
a delightful blast from the not-so-far past from Jeff Kennedy and the much missed Drawing Flies 52 project.
i'm not the nostalgic type but Jeff's and Jason Borger's fly and fish art collaboration where very special. their art is still out there, easily viewable for anyone willing to do a little research. i guess its the "what'll they come with next week ?" i miss most.
(that's Jason as in Borger and Brad as in Dork)
often branded as a heretic when i mention that i find the 'River runs through it' movie quite boring, this little gif makes up for all the mushy-sobby right vs wrong scenario, down-your-throat mysticism, alleviates us from the deep angst always brought on by seeing Pitt's goofy face and shows us over and over a finer-than-fine display of fly casting excellence.
coming from Jason that's of course no surprise: there's impeccable wrist control, the whole arm contributes to the cast to create a straight line path of the rod tip, demonstrates acceleration to a stop/translation followed by rotation as well as any video i've seen before and it's all crowned with a beautiful pointy loop despite the mushy-action vintage bamboo rod*. just beautiful.
* this last point was included only to point out that the current trend of 'you need a fast rod to produce tight-pointy loops' is nothing more than marketing hype.
the pic should say it all but there needs to be a big woW ! to make it complete.
having The Limp Cobra and myself mentioned in Jason's upcoming book 'SINGLE-HANDED FLY CASTING – A Modular Approach' is about the coolest thing that can happen to a casting instructor. to say it's an honor doesn't really my feelings justice but i'm sure you get the point.
in the making now for what seems like an eternity the last several years, a completely reworked edition of NATURE OF FLY CASTING – A Modular Approach seems to be close to completion.
" I am continuing to flail away on SHFC, grabbing writing time as I can. Everything that I plan on including in the book is in the book, but not fully fleshed out. Some chapters are about 97-percent, others are more like 67-percent. It's the 67-pecenters that I am focusing on right now, including the D-Loop chapter (Rolls and Speys).
I am still optimistic for an end-of-2013 finish, with the print run soon after that (figure that I'll let the book sit for two extra weeks so I can check it over again, then six weeks for the press)."
bring on 2014 !
as a lot of us casting geeks know, Jason Borger's been working on his soon to be out (and looooong-awaited !) 'Single-Handed Fly Casting – A Modular Approach' book so we'll half-pardon him for not keeping up with Jeff Kennedy and their Drawing Fish and Flies 52 weekly challenge but once again, the wait was worth it !
here's a Popsicle splash
and here a Royal Wulff
one for every flavor, both gorgeous.
enjoy !
have you ever wondered how this happened ?
taken from the oh-so-famous 'A River Runs Through It' movie poster, here's a very good example of three-dimensional casting.
devised by Jason Borger as a visual rendition of Norman Maclean's description "…cast hard and low upstream, skimming the water with the fly but never letting it touch. Then he would pivot, reverse his line in a great oval above his head, and drive his line low and hard downstream, again, skimming the water with his fly " therefore creating the illusion of a bug hatch to a more than gullible fish !
(i personally believe this cast and it's incessant 'Shadowing' of the poor unexpecting fishes put them in hypnoïdal-halucinogetic fit and the only reason they ever got hooked was their mouths where slack-jawed, drooling with bliss and the fly managed to snag them on it's merry 'low and hard driving' way, but then again, it's just a personal theory).
thing is, in the movie itself, us casting geeks are left with a yuk aftertaste because we can't even properly see the whole cast and as far as i'm concerned, sitting through an hour and a half of shmultz (yeah, shmultz. sorry) to see and try to analyze this cast in just a few brief, very edited micro-flashes just doesn't do it.
now, thanks to this groovy gif we get to see the mechanical motion sequence over and over (me jaw's slackin' from staring at it !…. :cool: ) finally putting Norm's poetic description to good use !
the word sequence is off or at least confusing, the 'Galway' part starts after the initial over-head cast, it's the reversal of the grip that goes throughout the whole back-cast, but the motions are correct. ( i think)
sure, the Shadow Cast is more of an exercise in style and aesthetics than one of hard-core use on the water and that's just fine because fly casting should be pretty and sexy. after all, Jason in his seminal book 'Nature of Fly Casting' describes it as: " It is not how many fish you catch, it is how good you look doing it. Well, maybe for the movies. "
as i reread this i have to be honest. the more i think about it the more i believe the whole Shadow Cast thing is a retouched or special effects hyped-up hoax that never existed anywhere outside of the book. ever wondered why no one else does this cast at shows or among like-minded casting geeks or even display it on youtube ? i do but then i like make believe and this make believe sure beats the heck out of this…

The chef twirls and spins his carving fork and spatula in a percussive rhythm atop the grill. He continues the show, slicing and seasoning meats and vegetables as part of a choreographed spectacle for guests lined around the perimeter of a hibachi grill. In addition to freshly seared dishes, the chefs also man a sushi bar, where they work with ingredients such as fresh salmon and deep-fried sweet potato. They prepare plenty of vegetarian items as well as a selection of Chinese dishes. Every dish is available for delivery within a 5-mile radius, which Kyoto's staff demarcates by drawing a large chalk circle around the restaurant.
Echoed by the Japanese lucky-cat statues and Chinese mountain wall art, Kashin Garden's pan-Asian specialties range from pad thai and tempura to fresh sushi. Chefs wok-toss morsels of meats, tofu, or shrimp and whip up specialties including rich duck and trios of chicken, shrimp, and beef, or scallop, shrimp, and calamari in crispy golden veggie nests. The sushi chefs craft rolls that encapsulate fresh yellowtail or spicy tuna more snuggly than the cold-blooded embrace of their mothers when they were wee roes. Characterized by soft lighting glowing from golden lamps and splashes of mosaic tiles, the lounge bar beckons patrons to kick back with a cocktail.
At The Ginger Pad, a casual atmosphere blends with the rich aromas of garlic, thai basil, and chili sauce hanging in the air to help guests forget the world outside. Like a suspension bridge made out of udon noodles, the menu connects distant lands through food, laying out delicious examples of Malaysian, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese cuisine. Spring rolls or edamame preempt dives into salty-sweet pad thai or korean beef barbecue. Chopsticks can also lift spicy sichuan shrimp to mouths or gently cradle sushi rolls that combine colorful mango and avocado with fresh tobiko, tuna, salmon, and scallops.
Feng Shui embraces the culinary traditions of both China and Japan while updating its menu seasonally, garnering praise from the Boston Business Journal and New England Cable News for its extensive selection. Stir-fried orders of chicken, beef, and seafood arrive laden with ginger or signature sauces, and sushi chefs roll maki with traditional tuna and salmon or such innovative combinations as strawberry and wasabi aioli. Other menu items includes creamy crispy deep-fried jumbo shrimp with coconut sauce and spicy orders of Mala chicken, as well as signature sushi rolls like red sox maki and tempura lobster.
It's easy to see which of Sugar Cane's entrées are Chinese and which are Vietnamese, but making a choice among them may be slightly more difficult. The menu—split halfway down the middle according to nationality—pits such Vietnamese entrees as mango shrimp and lemongrass chicken against such Chinese staples as clams in a black bean sauce and Peking duck with flour pancakes. Diners can split the difference with a create-your-own stir fry, where a choice of meat and vegetables bathes in one of five pan-Asian sauces. Despite this dual approach, the menu is single-minded when it comes to drinks. The restaurant features an extensive collection of creative cocktails, frozen drinks, and other alcoholic libations that range from a lychee martini to a 33 beer imported from Vietnam. Intimate pairs or scientists researching a new straw technique can share a scorpion bowl, a juice-filled concoction made with rum, gin, vodka, and Bacardi. The restaurant also features non-alcoholic smoothies, Shirley Temples, and Vietnamese-style coffee.
Crimson and jade hues welcome visitors to Jade's Restaurant, where tall palms stretch up from pots and servers bring plates of steamy Chinese food to booths and tables. Etched glass screens, depicting pandas, tigers, and flowers, separate sections of the restaurant. Within those areas, the staff serves ginger beef, orange shrimp, or salt and pepper calamari. Classic favorites such as spicy Hunan pork and sesame chicken intermingle with creative preparations like pineapple-flecked Hawaiian chicken with crispy Chinese greens and fried scallops stir-fried with hot peppers. On certain nights, Jade serenades patrons with the sounds of live music, karaoke, or wok vegetables sizzling to the tune of any requested top 40 hit.

Firefly Restaurant Review: The front of Firefly is a sexy library lounge with comfortable sofas, deep red walls and gilt-framed mirrors. The dining area is a covered patio with a central fireplace, some cozy tables separated by curtains, and scores of candles. It's a truly alluring place to hang out and the food is better than many lounges around town. Executive chef Paul Shoemaker (Savory, Bastide, etc.) is now overseeing the menu. Expect seasonal creations like "Chilled Maine Lobster Bloody Mary Salad" with heirloom tomatoes, celery sorbet and caviar. Late at night, a hip crowd tucks into burgers topped with blue cheese. An eclectic selection of wines is offered, and there are many reasonably priced pours by the glass, while cocktails include modern takes on old classics. |

What does it mean to 'empower' kids or to 'invest' in kids? Those are vague phrases that can be used to justify almost anything. Specifics would be nice as to how you might think things could be done differently to benefit ALL Minnesota students. I suspect you have some of your own special interest groups in mind.
it's just a snarky way to deflect the point of my comment. So, I'll ask again, what does investing in the kids mean to this particular commenter. General dislike for teachers unions is not an example of investing in kids.
Can't say that I find myself agreeing with Mr. Tester often, but I can't fault him here. I grew up on a poor reservation in northern MN. I'm not native American myself. Tt would be hard not to feel that personal choices, at least to some extent, have caused harm to many of the friends with whom I grew up. Strong families, however, can overcome some immense obstacles. I've seen that side of it, too.
Not known for their upbeat countenance. Quit is a strong word. I hope you're overstating it. He was in a foreign country in the biggest league in the world. Lots to adjust for.
I love Kirilenko, too, and hope, somehow, they can do a S&T to free up money to have him return. But he's pretty much guaranteed to miss his usual amount of games, whether we get hit with the injury bug again or not. He may want to play with a contender at this point in his career. He certainly...
without attacking Minnesota's teachers. They are among the best in the nation (& world) statistically. Stop judging the whole state by the shortcomings (real or imagined) of Minneapolis schools. As has been pointed out, it is hypocritical to call for such short alternative programs as TFA and then turn around and demand more testing/qualifications etc for existing teachers and students. The state of MN is hardly at the back of the pack for innovating in education. We were at the...
But unsure what direction to go now. Money will be tight. Injuries so colored everything and every strategy this team hoped to employ. Certainly players (Ridnour, Steimsma) were overplayed and overmatched, but the team seemed to always play hard. They a good, dependable SG (I was never a fan of the Roy gambit) and a BIG, strong defensive big behind starter Pek (neither Steimsma, Cunningham, nor Johnson are it). But where are these people? The 2013 draft seems suspect. Next year's draft...
So Ridnour fed you a tired sports bromide and you viscerated him for it. Luke is continually picked on for not being adequate, yet he continues to start and to fight each night. Why? Because he is better than the alternative and because (as he indicates) it's his job.
I fail to see the point of listing his inadequacies. No one says he is the equal or Russell Westbrook. He's out there competing due to fate and the front office. It sounds like you would feel better if the Wolves...
I never met Larry, although we do have some things in common. We both grew up in the same hometown and graduated from the same high school, though I preceded him by a few years. I have met his like-named father. I greatly appreciated the depth and sensitivity he brought to stories about outstate MN, particularly his series on Leech Lake. Our home area is often neglected and misunderstood. Only someone with Larry's background and great skill could have done such a fine job. I wrote to him...
Let me assure you there was/is white privilege. Also, don't dismiss the inequities of opportunity that exist all across the rural portions of our state.
Plus, here is a shout out to my good friend, Gary Fraser.
the government needs to remove itself from the word 'marriage' altogether. We need to end all government sanctioned 'marriages' and allow marriage to be something defined by differing belief systems (different religions, churches, etc). Every union, hetero or same-sex, would be merely a civil union. Those opposing same-sex unions can stop whining and same-sex couples would, no doubt, still be able to find a church to marry them.
Of course, that's not likely to happen. It's not...

MANCHESTER, Tenn. - Ornette Coleman was treated for heat-related dehydration after he collapsed during his performance at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival this weekend.
The 77-year-old saxophonist, who is considered a pioneer of "free jazz," was taken to a local hospital Sunday and released later that night, said publicist Ken Weinstein.
Coleman won the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for music for his 2006 album, "Sound Grammar," his first live recording in 20 years. The album features six new compositions and remakes of classics "Song X" and "Turnaround."
He received a lifetime achievement award at this year's Grammy Awards.
Conditions at the Bonnaroo festival, about 60 miles southeast of Nashville, were hot and dusty. One fan died and officials were investigating whether drugs or heat played a role.

Appropriate Christmas Gift Ideas for a 2 Month Old?
My daughter is two months old and I am attempting to figure out what to get or suggest as gift ideas to like the grandparents and such. We got EVERYTHING that we could ever possibly want and much more at the baby shower (it was ridiculous in size, something that just kept growing exponentially and I lost control over), so we do not need anything really. I was trying to think of something unique that she would appriciate when she got older, but am at a loss. PLEASE help because I am being hounded by family for ideas.

Honestly Virgina,
At this age its the gifts are more for the parents. Get gifts that keep on giving IE DIAPERS (for any stage) always a need, DREFT or whatever baby detergent (can never have too much), BATH PRODUCTS, DIAPER ESSENTIALS wipes etc). When I had my daughter my I was given a babyshower where I got everything from the rooter to the tooter but what I appreciated the most not having to buy diapers for 3 months!!! (*_*) Clothes and toys are for bigger kids plus at this age they grow out of everything so daggone fast!!! Hope this helps!

My daughter was almost two months old her first Christmas and we were in the same predicament. I suggested to family and friends to get her savings bonds, etc. If you are not in need of anything, anything they spend money on will just be disposable in a short time while she will certainly appreciate the savings she will have when she is older.
Good Luck!
T.R. answers from Portland on December 13, 2006
Buy her some stocks or bonds. I mean even if you can only afford to get her one share of something it's still really cool. And it's something that when she's older she can keep track of. I'd recomend something that's been around for a while that you know won't fail. Or you can always buy her a star. That's always really unique. And then when she's older buy the telescope so you can show her the star.
Good luck with it.

Hi V.!
My son is 13 months old and I too have plenty of toys and clothes for him. So I ask for money for his savings account (which I opened when he was 2 months old and I plan to turn over to him at an appropiate age - maybe 18 or 21) or one set of grandparents gets him savings bonds. Or it's often helpful to get clothes for the future months or years to stow away until needed. Take care!
L.W. answers from Las Vegas on December 12, 2006
My son is almost 22 months old. When a family memeber asks what to get him for B-days or Holidays I just tell them he has enough toys and clothes. I also tell them that if they want to contribute what they would spend to his Education Savings Account they can. I started doing this about a year and a half ago instead of spending the money on stuff he really doesn't need. Sometimes I will go get him a few little things with the money so he has something to open from his grandparents and then the rest goes to the bank.
A.E. answers from Las Vegas on December 12, 2006
You can always ask that they get her teething toys, or just toys in general, so that she has something to play with when she gets bigger. Time is going to fly and before you know it she will be on the floor playing. Or you can ask for pretty picture frames so that you can put pictures of her in her room and all around your house. Good Luck and Merry Christmas

LAFF 2012 Review: More Than Just Fun and Fantasy, 'Magic Mike' Delivers Surprising Moments of Heart and Honesty
Film Festivals By Allison Loring on June 25, 2012 | Comments (3)Film has certainly explored the female side of the world of stripping, but rarely has the glittered curtain been pulled back on the male side of this risqué form of entertainment. Director Steven Soderbergh paints this picture with his signature style and does so in a way that shows us the highs and lows of living a cash-only lifestyle, the sort that can seem like one big party, but one that leaves you questioning your future when the sun comes up, the high from the night before wears off, and you realize you have nothing more than a stack of ones to show for your "day at the office." Magic Mike focuses on Mike (Channing Tatum), a man with a plan who is a natural hustler, bouncing from odd job to odd job, saving his cash, and working on his plan to start his own custom furniture business. Mike is a charmer, not just with the ladies, but with anyone he meets thanks to an unflappable, positive outlook on life as he good-humoredly chuckles in the face of even the most outlandish of situations he finds himself in. But Mike is not some good-looking blockhead, he knows where his strengths lie and has parlayed that into a successful run at a male revue, Xquisite, where he is "second in command" to the club's owner, Dallas (Matthew McConaughey.) Mike is constantly watching the bottom line and while he is certainly having a good time, he considers it all a temporary stop […]

For those of you living in or visiting San Diego, I wanted to let you know the San Diego Zoo offers a botanical bus tour on the third Friday each month; they call the third Friday "Plant Day". The next one is Friday 21 February; perhaps I'll see some of you there! Here are details: About the plants and gardens at the San Diego Zoo: http://www.sandiegozoo.org/CF/plants/gardens_zoo.html The Gardens: About Plant Day, a blog post from 2008: About the Orchid collection: And, as an interesting side note, the San Diego Zoo has what looks like an interesting micropropagation program: http://www.sandiegozoo.org/CF/plants/micropropagation.html Enjoy! |

Sounds great. What is the admission fee? |
Couldn't make it today but put it on my calendar as a recurring appointment. Thanks for the reminder. I went a few years ago and it was very interesting. |
- Posted by Oscarmatic CA z10/24 (My Page) on Mon, Feb 24, 14 at 11:09
Evelyn, you can find admission details on the San Diego Zoo web site: http://zoo.sandiegozoo.org/tickets. Admission is pricey if you're going just for the bus tour, so I recommend making a day of it or getting the annual pass. The Zoo staff and web site are strangely reticent with information about plant day. Neither the Orchid House nor the tour bus pickup spot are marked on the map or web site, and some of the volunteers are unsure of the location of either. Attached is an image showing the (current) location of both. I hope this makes it easier for first-time visitors. The left yellow arrow points to the Bus Unloading area, which is where the Botanical Bus Tour loads. The right yellow arrow points to the Orchid House, behind the meerkat habitat. |

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Thursday, May 1, 2014
Secretary Husted Marks Six Months of Online Business Filing in Ohio More than 13,000 online filings received, one in five new businesses started online.
COLUMBUS – Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted today announced that since allowing Ohioans to create a business and submit other filings online, 13,190 customers have taken advantage of the convenience. In six short months, one in five of all new businesses formed in Ohio were done online.
"We've made it easier to start a business in Ohio and as a result, more people are taking advantage of it," Secretary Husted said. "We have effectively cut the red tape and rolled out the red carpet, which results in more companies choosing Ohio as the place to do business and create jobs."
In October 2013, as part of an ongoing effort to improve and modernize the way the Secretary of State's office handles business, Secretary Husted launched Ohio Business Central. Enabling business owners to file online is a benefit to customers and taxpayers alike, reducing paper and streamlining the process. That means customer service is up and processing times are down from as many as four days to one and half days on average.
Forms currently available for online filing include those for forming a limited liability company in Ohio, renewals for trade or fictitious names, biennial reports for professional associations or limited liability partnerships, statements of continued existence for nonprofit corporations, reinstatement and appointment of agents, as well as certificates of limited partnership. Collectively, these forms represent approximately half of all filings received by the Secretary of State's office in 2012. Based on the success of Ohio Business Central so far, Secretary Husted plans to roll out additional opportunities to start a business online by the end of the year.
"Business filings can now be done 24 hours a day, seven days a week in Ohio – it couldn't be more convenient," Secretary Husted said. "We are hearing from customers who instead of filing in states like Delaware, say they are now choosing Ohio where it's not only faster than before, but less costly."
Secretary Husted noted that with lower taxes and an overall better business climate, more companies are choosing the Buckeye State. Ohio saw a record number of new business filings in 2012 with 88,068, and again in 2013 when 89,735 companies were filed in Ohio. In the first few months of 2014, new business filings are trending toward another record year.
Additional information on the Ohio Business Central, including testimonials from Ohio business owners, is available online here.

Some Quick Thoughts on the Jets Texans Game
Posted by Erik Manassy on Aug 16, 2011 in News, Opinion | 1 comment
The Jets lose to the Houston Texans 20-16. Here is a quick post on some of my thoughts about tonight's game. I'll have more tomorrow. Greg McElroy played a good game considering his O-line was allowing him to get hammered. The kid is a gritty player who is a winner. If Campbell catches that ball in the end zone, the game is over and the Jets leave Houston with a win.
TheJetsStream #Jets rookie WR Michael Campbell with a terrific sluggo route, but drops what would have been a 32-yard TD pass from McElroy. #nyj 8/15/11 11:19 PM |
TheJetsStream Greg McElroy's 35 pass attempts are the most by a #Jets QB in preseason since Ray Lucas in 1999. #nyj 8/15/11 11:16 PM |
Notables: Kenrick Ellis had a nice tip of the ball which caused an interception. The guy is strong and showed he will be a beast. Kyle Wilson looked a lot better than his rookie season. He didn't play much, but there was a play where he was tight on coverage and he turned his head around and showed better ball awareness. Jeremy Kerley showed his explosiveness on kick and punt returns. He's going to be a factor on special teams. Jeff Cumberland looked VERY good snagging 6 balls and had the longest catch for the Jets. He has a great chance to be that second TE the Jets were looking to do when they were talking about adding another receiving threat. Josh Mauga was a beast considering it was pre-season. He really helped his chances with a solid game. He showed speed, had a sack and picked that ball off the Ellis tip.
The ugly: Vlad Ducasse. Wow. He looks the same as he did last year and the thing I worry about the most is the fact that he's going to get his QB killed.
Second-year OL Vlad Ducasse continued to struggle. When the second-team line came in, Ducasse switched to right tackle — and he promptly surrendered another sack, this one to Jesse Nading, who blew past him with an outside rush. At least Ducasse didn't get any of his teammates hurt on this play, as he did in the first quarter with C Rob Turner. With the Turner injury and Ducasse's struggles, the lack of line depth is a bigger issue than before. – Cimini
Rob Turner's injury weakens the depth at O-line. Let's hope it's not serious but we'll know more tomorrow.
TheJetsStream Rex Ryan says that #Jets o-lineman Rob Turner (ankle) will have an MRI tomorrow. #nyj 8/15/11 11:37 PM |
I know I'm missing some other players but Vlad takes the cake. I'll be posting more in the morning about the game.
I am afraid Vlad is the new Vernon Gholston. Let's get rid of him,or at least not play him,before he gets our QB killed.This joker was a stretch to begin with…
