Gracie was good for his time? The guy revolutionized the sport. He changed MMA and put BJJ on the map. To survive in MMA, you must know how to defend submissions. After Fedor is retired, what can you say he brought to the sport? Some good matches here and there and he was great in his time, but he didn't make any changes to MMA. You can sit there and talk all day about records but it doesn't matter. At the end of the day, it's what you brought to the sport. Even if you look at Gracie's record it's still stellar. Remember that this guy fought in tournaments and one loss was due to an injury in the previous fight. The next loss, was an unlimited round bout in which he fought for 90 minutes. 90 minutes man! And yeah he did lose to Matt Hughes and there's no excuse for that. For those of you who don't take any type of martial arts, you really can't appreciate what he has done. I thought the style I was taking was the best until Gracie put BJJ on the map. He shook up the world of martial arts and if you didn't take martial arts at the time, you wouldn't know what I'm talking about. The guy started a legacy and he will be talked about more than any other fighter in the history of MMA. Even now, a gracie trained fighter gets a lot of props and respect even before stepping into the ring and we have seen a lot of good gracie BJJ fighters.
Sorry guys, but your Fedor high is really clouding your minds or maybe we just think differently. Look, I like Fedor and I give respect when it's due but some of you guys are so high that you choose to turn the other cheek when something can hurt Fedor's reputation. Some of you are so biased that your judgement is off, at least in my opinion. I tell you that Gracie is the best fighter of all time because he took MMA to an all new level. And you come back with records. After Fedor retires, do you think everyone is gonna make it essential to defend against sambo or even fear sambo?
Maybe we just think differently. To me, Gracie will always be the best because of how he affected my life and changed my way of thinking in martial arts. For some of you, Fedor may have changed your life by winning everytime you cheered for him. Either way, you won't be able to change my mind.
It also annoys me that you guys are hardcore Fedor fans that you write off other Fedor fans like Tim and me. Tim has repeatedly posted that he is a Fedor fan but he's trying to point out some things that Hardcore Fedor fans choose not to see. So save everyone some headache and look things from an unbiased perspective. That doesn't mean that you can't show off your fanhood but don't look stupid doing it
daivd, garcie is a legend and a pioneer in the sport and was the best of his time but the best ever is fedor and its not fedor fans saying this its just about ever fighter and everyone involved in the sport watch the video, do you think all the experts are wrong?
From watching both Affliction and UFC fighters, as much as I think Fedor is the top right now, I do not believe he is unbeatable.
Don't get me wrong, the dude is sick in his calm demeanor in his fights and having come form years of full contact martial arts experience..that is half the game right there.
AA got over zealous and got KTFO for it. Did not keep his head and continue to pepper Fedor with punches. The kick did hurt Fedor but I don't think the punches did (as much anyways). The flying knee…come on Andrei..you deserved to get your head smashed for that mistake.
Fedor for me, is the top HW. The great thing about this sport is that strange things can happen in ANY fight. But keeping your head and mind calm during a fight helps reduce stupid mistakes.
I will not shout out Fedor will smash all, but I would like to see him take on the other UFC HWs whether to humble them or to finally show everyone, UFC / Fedor fans how things stack in the HW rankings finally would be cool.
Every fighter has a weakness, it is the true champion who knows how to take advantage of it to win.
everyone is beatable he is just the least beatable
Steve, Dude i am not against Fedor being the best HGHWT, obviously you didnt read my posts cause you would of read that i said many times that Fedor is the best Today….and i agree Gracie was the best of his time and is a legend.
Thanks David…
Roy i agree i couldnt have said it better myself…and David i understand where your coming from as the only thing Fedor has given to MMA is his unique ability to such a dominant force but ultimetly he hasnt truly given anything to the sport such as the likes of Gracie, Severn, Shamrock etc… the founding fathers of MMA…but than again its not far to compare them as they created the MMA faction and laid the basics for what it is today and fighters like Fedor are using that to their advantage and grwoing with the sport.
on another note i would like to see a rematch of Fedor and AA due to the fact that until that knee which was not in AA game plan per his own comments, he had a great chance of beating Fedor and if that knee was never thrown and Fedor was backed into the corner..what would of happend is the question and MMA fans like me are taking nothing away from Fedor has he beat AA convincingly but its intriguining to see what would of happend if AA stayed wiht his game plan…thats all i am saying in that regard….as its not like he beat AA in 36 seconds where as nobody would care to see that rematch…3mintutes or not AA was haning with him and made a mistake and got caught…there are question to remain and with questions come rematches….
than he should rematch cro cop , fujita ,arona,babalu because they all gave him a better fight than aa.i see what you are saying and i would like to see a rematch with aa as well but shcilt gave him a way harder fight than aa and so what if aa dominated him for 2 rounds and got knocked out. there is no what ifs only what happened what if aa was winning so fedor took him to the ground and killed him.theres not much question in this fight i have rewatched it numerus times and alot of those shots did not really land and the front push kick did no damage aa was winning the stand up but not by alot and did no real damage at all.
I think that shoney carter is the best pound for pound fighter in the world.
liten up guys. I'm a fedor fan but he will get beat one of these days.
Dude it was just a suggestion…i woudnt mind seeing AA vs Fedor 2 thats all. Fedor beat him bottom line, my point is i wouldnt mind seeing them fight again as i think AA was onto something…thats all.
no i get i would like to see it as well, but there all on to something intell they lose.
in fairness above when comparing gracie and fedor, when is the last time fedor faught more than once in one night? against anyone regardless or style or training wiht no prep time on your opponent. Well Gracie did all that, Im not saying fedors' not a great fighter, but its two different animals. Keep in mind the rules have changed quite a bit since gracie was in his prime as well. cage grabbing, kicking in the head was legal and werent the first few ufcs bare knuckle? been a while since ive seen them.
it is amazing what garcia did steveo, but half those guys he fought where not even athletes and they had more to fear not knowing his style than him not knowing theres.it is not even the same thing those where fights this is now a sport alot of fighters today would never even enter a tournement like that props to gracie but there is no point in comparing the two.
personally i would like to see the ufc go back and maybe do a tournament next time a belt opens up or something maybe the GP like pride used to do. their are plenty of good fighters out there that they could do it. I would love to see it.
Dave and Tim are both Fedor fans. He is not there favorite but they enjoy watching him fight. The one thing I think Fedor will be remembered for over time is how he combined his mma skills. He is the best "chain" fighter in mma. Gracie was an innovator only because he applied a style of fighting most of his competition had never seen before. Yes he did introduce bjj to the mma world but I was around when the Gracies were on the top. The refused to train americans in bjj. They kept as much of their knowledge hidden as possible to continue their dominance. They were not excactly the benevolent providers of bjj tactics that they are being credited with now. Royce had a great run. On his best day he could not hang with any of the top talent now. He had NO standup. Give him credit for helping to shape the sport at the very beginning but he is not the best fighter of all time. Fedor is a man before his time. Like Jack Johnson in boxing he was so much better at everything that he dominated. fedor's is very good at every aspect of mma. His power is top level. His speed is very fast for a heavy. His subs and sub defense are top level. his takedowns and takedown defense are elite. His conditioning is superior every time out. His training is old school tough and his mental control is computer like. He is the first guy to put ALL the great mma skills together with equal competence and win every fight he is put in over a very long period of time. No other heavy has his skills or his natural ability. That said he will lose one day. Until that day comes, I can't really give any credence to the folks who think he is overrated. After he loses we will see what happens in his following bouts. The Fedor haters give all the other contenders credit for losing and no credit fedor winning. Most of the top fighters out there consider him the best mma fighter regardless of division in the world. These are guys that actually fight for a living. I would love to see a heavyweight tournament involving the best 8 heavys in the world. Just ask Dana to make it happen.
I agree with what you are all saying. I don't have a problem with people feeling that Fedor is the best of all time. Like roy said, you can't compare the two because times were so different. But I wanted to remind everyone what some legends did before Fedor's time. People like Gracie that I truly respect and what he did to revolutionize the sport. In addition, you gotta give him even more creditability because he fought in no weight limit tournaments when he was a buck 70 and in addition you had hardly any rules. But then again, if you say it's not fair to compare the two because the times are so different, then you can't say that someone is the best of all time. Just the best in their time. Now for the title of this post, best HW of all time, Fedor is the best today because they didn't put in weight classes until later and that's a valid discussion.
But when someone says best of all time, you gotta include it when it dated back to when it all started. You can't just look past one of the legends who changed or pioneered the sport of MMA because one person looks unbeatable right now. When Fedor retires, I will re-evaluate everything and decide if Fedor takes that title (at least in my mind) But being the best of all time has to be about more than winning, and it has to be about more than records because records don't tell you everything.
And yes roy, I do think the experts are wrong because being the best of all time is just a matter of opinion. The experts just get paid to do it. If you've ever played any fantasy sports, you would know the experts are wrong 50% of the time, so just because they are experts, doesn't mean that they should decide for you. In the end you decide for yourself.
I'm not a firm believer in getting a rematch right after a loss. You need to earn another shot. In AA's case, I can see how it's valid discussion because Barnett wasn't impressive, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't deserve a title shot. IMO, give Barnett the shot, and if he loses, give AA another shot if theres not another contender in Affliction. However, if you got mmamania.com there's a post there that suggests Affliction hasn't been doing well as far as sales and may have to shut down but who knows. Hopefully it'll be able to pull through
Fedor24, I see what you are saying but you can't simply say that if you dropped Gracie into the sport today that he wouldn't hang, because times are different. The sport has evolved and surpassed the skills of any of the pioneers. I'm sure most fighters today watched these pioneers compete and implemented the ground game into their style at an early age. If Royce was put in that same position where he was still young, training, and saw that you needed stand up because fighters now had superb takedown defense, then who's to say that he wouldn't have learned the stand up game? It's not fair to say Royce wouldn't have any shot against the fighters today because times were different and the way you prepare for a fight is different.
But that's all I wanted to say about the best of all time discussion so thanks for listening
good post david i see what your saying, it is a matter of opinion just like p4p to me he is but there are other great fighters worth mentioning up there with him.
u guys bring up fighting in tournaments but do u realize that it is totally different these days. U cant just fight 3 fights now a days. It is much harder to win just one fight now a days. Back when gracie fought he used technique that others didnt know about. U cant do that these days. Take the old gracie and put him in a tournament with the top guys today in any weight class and he loses. Tim sorry if I jumped all over u but from what i got from ur coment was like fedor was losing and the next fight would be closer and I thought u were kinda putting Fedors performance down. b/c Anderson Silva has lost a couple of rounds and ppl still think he is unbeatable just about. But when fedor is even losing half of a round or even maybe losing 1 minute he wasnt doing good. I just think that the Fedor haters will look for anything to talk crap about him. Not saying ur a hater if u say ur not. I dont know what u think just explaining how I thought u came across to me. Gracie is the BEST pioneer of the sport not best fighter.
im not saying they would have to fight the tournament all in one day spread it out over a couple of events, have alternates, and do something a little different, imagine if they could have a tournament at lhw right now the names in there. Liddell, Wandi, Rashad, Rampage, Machiada, T Silva, Maybe da spider, forrest and throw in a few others and that would be awesome to watch, and that would draw rating like a mofo knowing you are going to get to watch fighst taht matter rather than watch 4 fights with guys i could care less about. i think it would be awesome
steveo what your describing is a good idea and thats what they are doing in DREAM. they fight tournament style with about 2-3 months in between events. it would be good if the ufc had Liddell/Rua and Rampage/Jardine in a 4 way tournament for a shot at the title. but you know dana, he'll probably give it to chuck or rampage right away if they win.
UFC tournaments. It's impossible to do stateside. No athletic commission would sanction it. Maybe in Japan?? Pride did several grandprixs and K1 has tournaments regularly. Losing the tournament format made the UFC palatable to the powers that be in the states. They wanted rules as close to boxing as possible. It would be awesome to see though.
All you guys are debating and not realizing the common sense herte.
1. Fedor has to be consired the best of all time (for now) and has to be considered the best p4p. While he may have been in danger or a fight may have gone the distance, that doesn't matter. he is human and is not going to knock everyone out in the first minute. But the fact is that he has only 1 loss versus 30 wins. And the one loss should not have been a loss, it should have been a no-contest due to an accidental elbow. I am a fan of AA and was rooting for him but how could anyone say he was winning upt to the point he got knockout???It is not like he took him down, attempted a submission, or stuck him with a punch or kick hard. All he did was he was more active…does that mean that he was winning? What exaxtly did he do that had him winning at that point? As far as him getting some tomato cans, everyone does here and there. Are you gonna tell me that even during Chuck's great run or Hughes great run, that evry guy they fought was a top notch guy? I do recall Chuch fighting opponents like Vernon White and Jeremy Horn (Jeremy is good and he has a lot of fights but he has never been an MMA champ. he was much better at submission grappling). Hughes fought twinkletoes twice and Joe Riggs??? So even those two great runs where they each defended their titles time and time again, they got some matches with guys that should not be there. In regards to the p4p argument, how many fighters, with at least 25 fights have 1 or no losses…not many. GSP has lost more, BJ Penn has lost more, Da Spider has lost more…He is the man!
2. Lesnar has only 4 or 5 fights under his belt. he is dangerous and incredibly gifted but he needs to win his next 25 fights before he matched Fedor's record. One thing is to go 4 and 1 in 5 fights…thry going 30 and 1 in 31. That is not easy. And as far as saying that Lesnar or anyone else posses a threat, any fighter poses a threat. Any fighter that steps in the octagon or ring poses a threat. So that is stupid to say that lesnar would pose a threat to Fedor because anyone that steps in the ring does. There have been some major upsets and there will always be.
3. Royce was not the best fighter of all time but he was truly a pioneer in the sport and the face of BJJ that brought it to the world. He was great then because very few people knew of submissions but he would not be that good today. His ground game was not great. it was just that the others knew nothing about it. He never won any BJJ titles and he got put to sleep in a BJJ match against Carlson Gracie fighter Wallid. Pioneer yes, but greatest of all time, absolutely not. I do acknowledge that he also fought at a time when you fought more than once per night if you won but again, for the most part he fought total nobodys. other ken and maybe but I do hesitate to say the second name Dan Severn , who did he fight in the early UFC, which was most of his fights, that made a career of MMA? No-one. he beat nobodys.
businessman well said
case closed
that was nice
Businessman, very good post and I see what you are saying. But you got to give more credit than that. The fight game is very different from what it is now. You say Royce fought nobodies, but that's because Royce beat them all. You can say that no one knew how to defend it before the first tournament, but he won 2 more on top of that and had to withdraw on the other due to injury. After the first tournament, the secret was out but yet he still won 2 more. In addition, fighters aren't hyped up and marketed the way they are now, it's two different time eras. Fighters now will fight a match every 6 months and have time to train and prepare for each fighter. IMO, it was harder for Royce to win those tournaments because after the first, everyone knew him but he didn't know anyone else, . Everyone knew what he was gonna go in there and do, but yet they still couldn't stop the guy. It doesn't matter if he won or didn't win any BJJ titles, we are talking about MMA. If they thought they were superior, why didn't they enter the octagon? For example, Fedor has been the Sambo champ many times except for his loss last year but that doesn't blemish his MMA record. Not to mention he was in a no weight limit tournament in one night. That means nothing to someone like Fedor but for a welterweight?
Look, I understand what you are saying, that he is a great pioneer but absolutely not the best of all time. I'm saying give him more credit than that. You keep going back and telling me that if you were to to drop him in there now, he would lose. Of course, because the game has evolved and Gracie had a lot to do with that. No one will ever do what he did by winning those tournaments in one night more than one time in his career. To win 3 of 4 MMA tournaments where you can punch each other in the stones is just insane. And he lost the other tournament due to an injury in a previous fight. I'm not saying that it's not impossible to do that today. If anyone has a good chance, it's Fedor because he won the Pride tournament and the rules were different and he didn't have to fight it all in one night. Big props to him tho for winning. But that all ends up in the what if category and I don't deal with what if's.
Like I said, it's a matter of your own opinion. But in my mind, what Gracie brought to the world of MMA can never be matched. But to win those tournaments in that fashion, with a big target on your back, with those rules and lack of weight limits, is truly rare and we may never see it happen again.
lesnar is green but he isnt fighting a japanese speed bump every other fight either. He has been in the ring with Mir, Herring, and Couture. Two ex heavyweight champs and one guy that will fight anyone without hesitation, the only way to solve it is for fedor to come to the ufc and test the waters against the current crop of guys. they will all lose eventually, Sliva, Fedor, Lesnar, Penn, GSP, you cant be champ forever there is always a forrest griffin or matt serra out there waiting to do the unthinkable and with the new generation of fighters being mostly well rounded the divisions will only get tougher. Soon I think the days of long tenured champs will be behind us.
I forgot to respond to your portion of the Fedor and AA fight. You say that you didn't know how AA was winning the fight before the knockout? The scoring is different for every judge but up until the knockout, AA was winning the round. He landed more punches, cleaner strikes, and was the aggressor. He doesn't have to score takedowns or attempt submissions to be winning the fight. Some judges will score on total damage, and AA never once got caught with a clean hit to where it set him back but Fedor did back up after a few of AA's shots. And yes, he did strike him in the head a few times to push Fedor back and although Fedor did get some hits in before the knockout, it was easy to see that AA was winning the fight. What i'm saying is, if the bell had rung before the knockout, you couldn't say that you would give that round to Fedor.
the first couple of ufc there where bums fighting for the most part, david you say after the first one they new what he was doing?how by watching one show they would know bjj?even if the went and trained in bjj after that they would not now enough to beat him and there where alot of fighters out there already japan already had pancrase and vale tudo fights in brazil.there where some tough guys and a few real fighters in those events but more like a tough man comp.
I agree, steve sorry if you took the comment the wrong way but i was implying that AA before he lost might have been on to something….but we will never know but yes Fedor beat him convingly. There were some great posts after mine that i honestly agree with to an extent.
i would like to see AA get a rematch i dont know if he would win cuz his chin sucks and its a long fight but i think he could put on a better showing and seeing as the only other legit person they ahve for fedor is barnette i think i just might get my wish.
Thats my point…exactly…thats why i said a rematch….
if they offered aa a rematch right now i bet he would not take it, he is going to box and if he does good there you might not see him in mma for awhile.i think fedor should fight barnett and aa really should fight gilbert or paul get another win under his belt before trying to face fedor again but i see him trying boxing first and in a rematch maybe lasting longer but end up losing again.
Sounds good i agree no rematch off the bat..is he really pursuing boxing now? that would be great but kinda hard for an MMA guy to adapt and not want to take it to the ground per say but than again AA never did like going to the ground.
did u even see AA's latest interview? he says he wants a rematch as soon as possible. i doubt they will give it to him anytime soon tho since they only put on a paperview once every 5 months and they have said a million times barnette is next in line. maybe sometime next year there will be a rematch. in the interim AA will have plenty of time to box all he wants.
No i never saw that, i think AA knows he could beat Fedor but as well as we all saw AA knows he got caught and Fedor capitilizes. You know who reminds me of Fedor, urijah Faber…i was watching his fight with Jens pulver on WEC last night and damn he comes right at you hits you hard and sneaks in the submission….
yeah he says he wants the rematch and maybe he does, but his next fight from everything i have heard will be in the boxing ring.
the only reason he fought nobodies in japan was because he beat every single decent heavyweight outside of the ufc. Herring, schilt, coleman, randleman, cro cop, Nog, hunt. In pride he never lost a single round and ppl can call Hong Man Choi a can or whatever but he put up one of the best fights against the last emperor and looked far more competetive than Tim Sylvia. Anyone who says the arlovski fight was a lucky punch should take a look at chuck liddells career. Sometimes the counter punch strategy is the most effective and everyone knew that arlovski was the more technical striker. Oh and Fedor would destroy Randy in a matter of minutes wherever the fight took place. WAR FEDOR
I don't think A. silva is the p4p greatest….he keeps on fighting fighters way more smaller and lighter than him. He should be fighting in the light heavyweight division. But fedor is fighting in his natural weight and even fighting fighters heavier than him….i think fedor can fight in the light heavyweight division considering his size and weight.

Eating here was one of the best gf dinning experiences I've ever had. It was amazing!! I haven't had fried anything since being diagnosed with celiacs. To have fried seafood was a dream! Gf dinner rolls too!!!!!!! I almost cried. So good! No stomachs problems or rashes. The staff was super nice and knowledgeable too! I will for sure be going back whenever I'm near one again! Thanks Legal Seafood!
Always knowledgable. Always delicious. And I could eat fried seafood, French fries, and even had dessert options! Favorite!
Gluten free menu with great selection. Knowledgable staff. Excellent dinner rolls; I ordered more because they were so good. Ordered a tuna steak for the entree. Good experience.
My family's favorite option for GF food on the north shore.
I have updated my review and rating. Legal Seafoods has made some changes to their menus. There are some more interesting options on the gluten free menu. Worth a trip back if it has been a while.
1 Harborside Drive, Boston, MA 02128
Best GF Jasmine Special I've had at any Legal Seafoods. Great GF experience. I wish they had the old GF rolls, new ones are good, but I like the old ones better.
20 University Road, Cambridge, MA 02138
Amazing! Tons of gf fried fish, gf dinner rolls (which they warm up for you), and a gf dessert option. They assured me everything was completely gf when they brought it out so I knew they were paying attention when I told them about the allergy. Everything was delicious! Felt great afterword too.
75 Middlesex Turnpike, Burlington, MA 01803
I have been here many times and never got sick. I even went here for my birthday and loved it!
2099 Post Road, Warwick, RI 02886
Good food and excellent gf bread for the table. I had the surf and turf which was good but somewhat plain. The surf was shrimps and scallops which were very high quality but didn't have a sauce... so again it was very plain. maybe the sauces had gluten in them and that's why? Otherwise good place that was very considerate of gluten free food which I appreciate greatly.
2099 Post Road, Warwick, RI 02886
Hands down the best gluten free menu ever. The staff is so knowledgable. They have switched to all gluten free fryers except for 1 for a specialty item. I travel almost every week and if I could et at legal every week I would never get glutened! Food is delicious!
301 Great River Rd, Somerville, MA 02145
All fried food here is gluten free. All. For everyone.
50-60 Worcester Road, Framingham, MA 01702
BEST PLACE EVER!!! It's expensive but so worth it! I had French fries, onion rings, and fried fish for the first time since my diagnosis 3 years ago. I literally almost cried eating because I was so happy. Their rolls are incredible. I made the server check 3 times that they were the gluten-free ones and actually had a manager come over and assure me. Never had such good gluten-free bread in my life!
301 Great River Rd, Somerville, MA 02145
Awesome menu! Never had a reaction here and almost anything can be made gluten free
43 Boylston Street, Chestnut Hill, MA 02467
Great selection. Great food. Best options for a 2 year old with celiac in the area. Our go to spot!
704 7th Street. N.W., Washington, DC 20001
Very celiac-friendly! Huge GF selection (marked on the menu) with GF rolls and even a dedicated GF fryer. We were very impressed!
43 Boylston Street, Chestnut Hill, MA 02467
My experience here was phenomenal! GF dinner rolls to start (also dairy-free) courtesy of 'Something Sweet without Wheat' bakery in Woburn (an awesome bakery if you haven't checked it out!) I love that Legal branches out in the community to bring in fresh GF products versus frozen breads! Staff is knowledgable and overall would recommend!
275 Baker Street NW, Atlanta, GA 30313
This restaurant understands Celiac. There are many GF options and they even had GF rolls. They have fries that they make in a separate pan. Jeff, our waiter, was well educated on proper GF preparation and was very happy to accommodate us! It was a pleasure to dine here. Food was absolutely delicious!
301 Great River Rd, Somerville, MA 02145
Great new place! Most of their menu items can be made GF. The fried seafood was delicious. They even brought out GF rolls. I really felt like the waiter and manager cared about my allergy. I will be back!
270 Northern Ave, Boston, MA 02210
I was in gluten free heaven! When they brought me gluten free rolls, I knew it was going to be a great meal. I also had the buffalo shrimp appetizer and I had the lobster roll. Such a treat! I wish I lived here!
1200 Morris Turnpike, Short Hills, NJ 07078
I have always had a great dining experience at Legal Seafood. Their GF rolls are fantastic! The servers are knowledge about the GF choices on the menu and the manager brings the GF meal separately. They now have the GF items identified on the regular menu, so no need to ask for a separate menu anymore.
75 Middlesex Turnpike, Burlington, MA 01803
Every dish was brought out by the manager. They're very through & take good care. The rolls were a little dry & I prefer Woodman's for fried seafood, but this was convenient and fit the bill.
75 Middlesex Turnpike, Burlington, MA 01803
The best!!! Where else can you get fried sea food??
2001 International Drive, McLean, VA 22102
Server extremely knowledgeable about food allergies and celiac disease. She even checked to make sure soy was okay. The gluten-free bread and gfree fried calamari were tasty. Warning: the chocolate cake is more like chocolate fudge and super rich.
2301 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202
Great gluten free spot. GF menu; GF bread; GF-trained staff.
704 7th Street. N.W., Washington, DC 20001
Excellent waiters!! Very sensitive! Most of menu is marked gluten free and they brought me gluten free bread! They also have separate fryer! The food is wonderful and atmosphere is great!! A must go to if you are gluten free in DC!!
800 Boylston Street, Boston, MA 02199
They are knowledgeable and friendly about allergy issues, and I can't believe how good their fried food is! This is the first place I've found that had GF fried (and battered) stuff, and you'd never know it -it's amazing. Separate frier also.
301 Great River Rd, Somerville, MA 02145
New place of the Legal Seafood Chain .located the new assembly Square mall area! Staff manager very knowledge all the gluten-free menu. This restaurant I was told by the manager all the flower is gluten-free. Best seafood . Beer Vodka
75 Middlesex Turnpike, Burlington, MA 01803
Legal seafood is so good . There staff managers are right on top of celiac . Most fired food is cooked with corn flour Gluten free options plentifully . Beer vodka gluten free! New Restaurant legal on the mystic in somerville ma .
270 Northern Ave, Boston, MA 02210
This restaurant is amazing! I went with a group of friends and we got a table on the rooftop. I told the manager that I have celiac and everything I was served was handled in such a special way. Its all a raw bar on the rooftop, but the sushi was amazing. They did bring one dish for our group to share that wasn't gluten free and were very clear to warn me about it, but also brought me a small plate of my own food so I could eat with my friends. Service like that is rare. I would definitely eat there again!
2301 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202
Wow!!! I cleaned my plate for the first time in years while out to eat!!!! GF fried scallops, jasmine rice, garlic/onion cauliflower..... Delicious! Also had a "lite clam chowder" that is gf; it was good as well but scallops come first! :) GF beer as well as cider. Highly recommend. Was worth the extra $$
75 Middlesex Turnpike, Burlington, MA 01803
One of the best gluten free meals. They offered me gluten free rolls which were amazing and the fried shrimp was fabulous. Thank you Legal Seafood.
270 Northern Ave, Boston, MA 02210
The BEST gluten free meal I have ever had! They can modify most of their dishes to be GF. They use chick pea breading to make any of the fried or breaded items. They have dedicated fryers for GF meals. I had the buffalo shrimp appetizer. Absolutely delicious! For dinner I had breaded sea scallops and French fries. Also very delicious. The scallops were so tender and the breading very light. They also have the most delicious, soft, GF rolls they buy from a local bakery. My husband who is not GF liked my rolls better than the regular rolls. If you're celiac and in Boston DO NOT miss this restaurant!
43 Boylston Street, Chestnut Hill, MA 02467
Wonder GF warm rolls to start. Among the best GF menus anywhere. The food is outstanding and reasonably priced given the large portions. When in Boston I always stop here to eat.
160 Walt Whitman Road, Huntington Station, NY 11746
My favorite gf resturant. Wide selection, dedicated menu, even has gf dinner rolls
5 Cambridge Center, Cambridge, MA 02142
Good selection and the restaurant really seems to get it.
225 Northern Avenue, Boston, MA 02210
Yep, made the mistake of coming here with my boss thinking it was just like all the other Legal Seafood restaurants. If you are used to Legal's Celiac friendly service in their regular restaurants, then do not come here. I wish they had just posted something on the door to alert people with Celiac and direct us to go elsewhere. Not a good experience at all.
704 7th Street. N.W., Washington, DC 20001
While they were very accommodating of both our dairy and gluten intolerances, the food was overpriced for what we got and the taste was average. It was really great to have fried calamari and fried shrimp since I never get those, but the taste was pretty dry. They also did not mention the dinner rolls-- that would have really made my hubby happy to have. All in all, safe eating but I won't be returning.
2301 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202
Really enjoy all the gluten free options and love the fact they bring out gf bread!
255 State Street, Boston, MA 02109
very serious about food allergies and cross contamination. Did not get sick at all! A must try!
1200 Morris Turnpike, Short Hills, NJ 07078
I always feel safe here. GF dinner rolls are too delicious, though. Nice to eat chowder and calamari. GF dishes are always delivered by the manager, too. They do it right!
Terminal B/C, 8500 Essington Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19153
It was so good to eat out at a restaurant where they care about their seafood AND patrons with allergies! I had the first fried seafood since being diagnosed celiac. And it was excellent! The wait staff was exceptional and they sympathetically understood celiac disease! We WILL find a way to eat there again!
50-60 Worcester Road, Framingham, MA 01702
GLUTENFREE FRIED EVERYTHING!!! Amazing. I'm a very sensitive celiac never got sick. Waiters are great place is beautiful. Soon they said all their fried food will be glutenfree by default 👌👍
704 7th Street. N.W., Washington, DC 20001
We enjoyed several appetizers, freshly baked gf dinner rolls, a delicious meal, and even dessert. The rolls and desserts weren't listed on their celiac menu, so I'm glad our server mentioned them.... can't remember the last time I got dinner rolls out! The food was delicious and service was great. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip.
255 State Street, Boston, MA 02109
It was really nice to be able to have gluten free fish and chips in a restaurant. And it was good! Their gluten free menu has quite a number of items that I didn't expect.
690 West Dekalb Pike, King of Prussia, PA 19406
Fantastic find! The first person we encountered was the hostess followed by our waitress.Extremely gluten aware. Waitress even knowledgeable about condiment safety. Dedicated fryer. Dedicated gluten free menu.
100 Huntington Avenue, Boston, MA 02116
Great order: blackened sashimi tuna appetizer hold cucumber sauce on side. Gluten free rolls. Very attentive waiters once you declare gluten/dairy allergy. Tuna everywhere hold some if the sauces also great choice.
255 State Street, Boston, MA 02109
I've never been so excited about rolls! And fish & chips, what a treat!
160 Walt Whitman Road, Huntington Station, NY 11746
They take great pains to keep GF food segregated and avoid cross contamination. I got engaged here, staff very helpful in making arrangements.
26 Park Plaza, Boston, MA 02116
great food! staff very helpful and fairly knowledgeable of GF concerns. dedicated GF menu. manager specifically brought out my wife's GF meal, as noted in other reviews. they did have a GF flourless chocolate cake, more like an oversized truffle, that was pretty tasty! we definitely did not go away hungry. loved it! went to am overpriced Italian joint in the north side, and would go back to LSF way before the Italian joint!
50-60 Worcester Road, Framingham, MA 01702
Excellent gluten- free options! Freshly baked rolls, delicious fried clams, gluten- free breadcrumbs on my seafood casserole... Yumm!! Very impressed with the food, and very impressed with service! Never had a bad meal ever!
26 Park Plaza, Boston, MA 02116
Loved getting gf fried food! The shrimp and scallops were exceptional on the fisherman's trio.
704 7th Street. N.W., Washington, DC 20001
My family was so excited to eat fried seafood out. They also served fresh from the oven gf dinner rolls that were a hit. I have additional food intolerances and they were accommodating of those as well. We tried many places in DC this week on vacation and this was the best place for me!

The Perryman Group did, in fact, estimate the "spin-off" jobs that result from "the permanent increase in stable oil supplies associated with the implementation of the Keystone XL Pipeline": 250,348 under a "normal oil price scenario" and 553,235 under a "high oil price scenario." And these figures formed the basis for countless media assertions that the pipeline would create hundreds of thousands of jobs, but they are highly suspect. A report to Congress submitted by the State Department took issue with the numbers, stating:
The economic analysis conducted for the EIS under contract to the Department of Energy, however, indicates that Keystone XL is unlikely to have any impact on the amount of crude oil imported into, or refined in, the United States. Therefore, it would not be reasonable to suggest the pipeline would cause an increase in employment or other economic activity by increasing crude oil imported into the United States.
"Regarding employment, the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline would likely create several thousand temporary jobs associated with construction; however, the project would not have a significant impact on long-term employment in the United States," the State Department concluded.
That's the bottom-line best guess for reporters: a few thousand temporary construction jobs over the course of a couple of years. Permanent jobs operating and maintaining the pipeline once it's built probably wouldn't add up to more than a few hundred. Everything else is unsubstantiated spin.
But estimates in the press have ranged wildly. A Media Matters video released last week—amusingly titled "To Infinity and Beyond"—presented a montage of various reports from conservative media over the last few months, led by Fox News, which placed job-creation everywhere from thousands, to tens of thousands, to hundreds of thousands, to a million. The dissonance is maddening.
The print media haven't been quite as bad. In recent months, outlets like The New York Times, The Washington Post, USA Today, Politico, and the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette have done a good job challenging industry estimates. NPR, too, has been good on this. But others, including The Wall Street Journal, The Christian Science Monitor, and many smaller papers have uncritically repeated the 20,000 jobs figure since Obama rejected Keystone XL, despite plenty of evidence that it is misleading.
With arguments over the pipeline—and energy in general—expected to play a significant role in the presidential election going forward, reporters need to get their numbers straight so that Americans can start having a more informed debate about environmental regulations and jobs.

You could be writing, right now. I remember spending a strange evening in a hotel room with a somewhat famous poet. She read me Gertrude Stein and made me want to write. I guess people don't usually take you up to their hotel rooms because they want to make you want to write. She wasn't inspired to write with me, and I ended up leaving shortly thereafter to drive the long, dark highways of upstate New York to my own apartment with no television in a town with no bookstores.
What makes you want to write? Is it the same thing as what makes you actually write?
Knowing what makes you work–and not the fantasy you have about what makes you work–is very useful for a writer. Supporting the habits you have–and not the habits you wish you had–takes a lot less energy and provides a lot more creative productivity. In other words, spend your time writing, not changing the way you write.
If it helps to fool yourself, you could pick up a pen right now. Really, you are reading this blog, surfing the net, waiting to refresh the status list of your Facebook friends to see who else has posted. But at the same time, let's say you were holding a pen or opening a blank document on your computer and carelessly, haphazardly throwing down some words, right there on a page or screen. Here are ten more places you might begin. But you can begin anywhere. Any time. You can begin now.
The Fine Art and Grunt Work of Inspiration
Exercises invented or collected by Elizabeth Stark (with thanks to my teachers, in person and in books: Gil Dennis, Natalie Goldberg, John Gardner, Joyce Johnson, Stephanie Moore, Eileen Myles, A.M. Holmes, Gloria Anzaldua, Ken Atchity, Buchi Emecheta, Angie Powers and probably some others on the way . . .)
21. Interview people about their lives. People actually love to talk about themselves. Ask about sensate details, about motivations and desires, about changes and turning points, about extreme emotions and challenges. Learn about the details of a place or profession or time that you don't know about. Then write fiction and feel free to invent beyond what you've been told (so long as you aren't passing it off as fact).
22. Go to the library. Wander the stacks with your notebook or index cards. Research a subject you know nothing about. Let the research seep into you, then emerge in your writing.
23. Use horoscopes from the newspaper or online to create characters and stories.
24. Create a deck of writing cards: ten brief character sketches, ten locations, and ten objects–one each on index cards. Shuffle each pile of index cards, and then draw two characters, a location and an object. Make both your characters compete for the object in the location.
25. Play, "what if?" Imagine roads not taken, for yourself or for other people you know. Imagine yourself or others to have different characteristics or circumstances. What if you won the lottery? What if your greatest dream came true and it didn't make you happy? What if your deepest fear manifested? What if you had never . . . met a certain person, moved to a certain place, had a certain opportunity or loss? You can ask these and other "what if?" questions of any number of characters.
26. Take an ordinary object: a dollar bill from your wallet, a pair of socks, an antique desk. Imagine its history, the people who've handled or used or made it, their desires and hopes, their lives.
27. Write nonsense. Use real words and sentence structure, but let go of meaning altogether. Or look at a text in a foreign language you don't understand and "translate" it. What might it mean?
28. Think of two irreconcilable goods or two irreconcilable evils. Now put a character in the situation of having to choose between them.
29. Listen to a song or even a piece of music with no lyrics and write the story you hear there.
30. Make up your own exercises. Writing will teach you to write and will show you what you think.
Tomorrow (Sunday, Dec. 21, 2008) is the end of my early enrollment discount for Building Your Book, an online revision and editing course. Come join this wonderful, warm, smart community of people writing books, and finish your book in 2009!

Mumford and Sons Play the Secret Policeman's Ball Mumford and Sons will be performing at the Secret Policemen's Ball in New York City to benefit Amnesty International, along with Coldplay and some of the biggest names in comedy.

If you buy tickets for the NY Secret Policeman's Ball, you'll not only see Mumford and Sons perform live, along with a kickass Coldplay concert, but you'll also get to laugh like crazy and see the likes of John Stewart and Stephen Colbert perform live as well, plus all proceeds go to Amnesty International. So if you're gonna be in the New York Area on March 4, check out Mumford and Sons perform at the Secret Policeman's Ball and get your tickets right away! About Mumford and SonsWest London folk rockers Mumford and Sons appeared on the scene in 2007 with their EP Love Your Ground and made their name the old fashioned way, touring and playing intimate gigs in support of their music. The proverbial "Mumford Sons" of the band's name allude to the intimacy of an old time family business and Mumford and Sons lyrics talk about love and loss in less comopicated times. Lead singer Marcus Mumford, keyboardist Ben Lovett, banjo player "Country" Winston Marshall, and bassist Ted Dwane are all talented, multi-instrumental vocalists who financed their debut EP Sigh No More out of pocket to avoid having to compromise with label execs. BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Low practically flipped over Mumford and Sons Little Lion Man calling it the hottest record in the world one evening on his show. Apparently he wasn't alone. Mumford and Sons were nominated for two Grammys and played their song The Cave during the proceedings. Mumford and Sons tickets haven't stopped flying out of the box office since. At the same ceremony they also played backing band to Bob Dylan and have had the good fortune of working with Arcade Fire producer Marcus Dravs. In a recent interview, rapper Wiz Khalifa name dropped Mumford and Sons saying that he wanted rap over one of their tracks. During their North American tour in 2011 the band passed through Nashville which they credited with influencing songs on their next album. Get your Mumford and Sons tickets to this hot new band before it's too late at TicketLiquidator! |

I am a self taught decorator having started when my daughter was about 1 year old. It was a disaster of a cake and looked awful, but I have persevered for the last forty years and read everything I possibly could on cake decorating. Once the Internet became available to anyone, (yes, I'm that old where it wasn't just like any other electronic gadget that everyone had. I actually lived in the dark ages when there was no Internet) then I started watching tutorials and searching anywhere and everywhere to keep improving the skills I had. Now I consider myself a cake decorating addict! I've had my fair share of horrible cakes, and I have also had a few pretty good ones too. I can only attribute that to never giving up, and practice, practice, practice. My deepest desire is to take a class on Lambeth. It is one field I have longed to learn since I was young, and now so few classes are even offered. I would hate to see this magnificent art form completely die out.
I've just started learning to work in fondant and gum paste in the last 3 years. For most of my life, I have only used butter cream and royal icing. I am also a stay at home baker and because of my age, I like to do this as more of a hobby now rather than a business.

I was in and out of the hopstial within three hours of the persantinine stress test and we found out I had a narrowing of one of my arteries. It was no big deal at all and I was so glad to have the test done. The worst part of it was getting the IV. I've been a diabetic for 40 years and I still hate IV's. If you need to have this test done, the sooner the better and there is nothing to be afraid of.

Aurora theater shooting case could end Monday with reporter's testimony, Holmes' plea deal offer
If case goes to trial, defense will plead insanity
DENVER - The Aurora theater shooter's case could be resolved as early as Monday if prosecutors allow James Holmes to plead guilty in exchange for avoiding the death penalty. A Fox News reporter will also be asked testify about her anonymous sources Monday, which could influence the outcome of the hearing
Holmes, a 25-year-old former University of Colorado graduate student in neuroscience, is charged with 166 counts in the July 20 massacre. The shooting, which occurred during a midnight showing of the "The Dark Knight Rises," left 12 moviegoers dead and injured 70 people.
The outcome of Monday's hearing hinges on two developments from Wednesday:
Fox News reporter Jana Winter will appear at the hearing and be asked to identify the anonymous sources that allegedly gave her information about the contents of a notebook James Holmes sent to his CU psychiatrist.
In addition, documents released Wednesday indicate that James Holmes' defense made an offer to plead guilty if prosecutors agree not to pursue the death penalty.
If the prosecution agrees, the deal could resolve the case with Holmes accepting life in prison without the possibility of parole.
-- Jana Winter's anonymous sources --
Winter invoked the Colorado Shield Law, which could allow her to keep her sources confidential, when she asked the judge to quash the defense subpoena requiring her to appear in court Monday to reveal her anonymous sources and produce notes or other documents related to the story.
The New York-based reporter cited unnamed law-enforcement officials in a FoxNews.com report where she wrote that Holmes had sent his psychiatrist, Dr. Lynne Fenton, a notebook with drawings that foreshadowed the July 20 theater attack, which killed 12 and injured 70.
Holmes' lawyers contend that law enforcement officials violated a judge's gag order by speaking to Winter. The defense wants Winter to identify her sources for the story and is requesting sanctions against any officials involved in the leak.
The prosecution said the judge should cancel the Monday hearing where Winter would be compelled to reveal her sources. Prosecutors also asked the judge to throw out the defense motion seeking sanctions against whoever leaked the information to the reporter because the defense also violated the gag order by publicizing Holmes' offer to plead guilty.
On Wednesday, a judge granted Winter's lawyers' request for oral arguments in court, but denied their request that she skip Monday's hearing.
-- Possible guilty plea deal --
The accused movie theater shooter's defense offered to enter a guilty plea Wednesday in exchange for avoiding the death penalty in a two-page filing. The document says the offer was also made prior to Holmes' arraignment, but the prosecution has not accepted because they may decide to seek the death penalty.
The offer would resolve the case with Holmes accepting life in prison without any opportunity for parole.
Holmes' lawyers told the court they were not ready to enter a plea during a hearing on March 12, but Judge William Sylvester refused to wait and entered what he called the "standard" not guilty plea. That day, Sylvester told attorneys they could change the plea at a later date.
With the judge's entry of that plea on Holmes' behalf, a 60 day countdown began to the deadline for prosecutors to decide if they'll seek the death penalty.
"The only impediment to a resolution of this case would be if the prosecution chooses to seek the death penalty," the document says.
The recent defense filing suggests the case could be resolved as soon as Monday if the prosecution agrees not to pursue the death penalty.
"Mr. Holmes is currently willing to resolve the case to bring the proceedings to a speedy and definite conclusion for all involved," the document says.
In court papers filed Thursday, prosecutors blasted the request as a publicity stunt.
Prosecutors suggested the defense publicly dangling an offer of a guilty plea was a ploy, "filed for the intended purpose of generating the predictable pretrial publicity."
The prosecution also said the defense had violated the gag order barring attorneys and law enforcement agencies from publicly discussing the case outside court.
Prosecutors compared the defense attorney's act of "improperly" publicizing the plea offer to the leak that prompted the Fox News reporter's article.
The recent defense filing suggests the case could be resolved as soon as Monday if the prosecution agrees not to pursue the death penalty.
The document also indicates that the defense is continuing to explore a mental health defense and would use that if the case goes to trial.
A not guilty by reason of insanity plea carries risk for the defense. Prosecutors would gain access to Holmes' mental health records, which could help their case if the evidence of insanity is weak.
If Holmes does plead insanity, the proceedings would be prolonged further while he is evaluated by state mental health officials. With the judge entering the plea, prosecutors still don't have access to Holmes' health records.
If a jury were to agree he was insane at the time of the shooting, Holmes would be committed indefinitely to a state mental hospital. There would be a remote and unlikely chance he could be freed one day, if doctors find his sanity has been restored.
"The only reason for a DA not to accept this plea, is if they want to seek the death penalty and have the death penalty imposed and have Mr. Holmes executed," legal analyst Dan Recht told 7NEWS. "If this kind of plea bargain went through, you probably wouldn't hear much more evidence."
-- Families react to the plea offer --
Tom Sullivan, whose son Alex was celebrating his birthday the night he was killed, said he would ultimately like to see the Holmes suffer the death penalty. Sullivan acknowledged his family's opinion is one of many but they are prepared for this to be a lengthy process.
"They have the guy who murdered my son and when they asked me, I said 'Yeah, I would like to see him put to death,' " Sullivan said. "But knowing that this is a long process, I'm prepared. We began to fortify ourselves for the lengthy process for however it ends up shaking out."
Meanwhile, Chantel Blunk, the wife of Jonathan Blunk, said she feels a plea may help her family gain some closure.
"I'm happy to hear he's [Holmes] taking responsibility and wanting to plead guilty," Blunk said. "Justice is really important to me, and no matter what happens to him, it will never bring my husband back."
The district attorney's staff has talked with each family member and the survivors of the shooting to get their opinions on what they would like to see happen. Those discussions will happen again Monday once the prosecution hears the entire plea deal.
