Happy Hour: Luca Mano Freddo
Gabe and Katherine Thompson's intimate restaurants offer discerning New York City diners soulful Italian cuisine with a modern spin. For this week's Happy Hour column, we tapped their talented partner and beverage director, Joe Campanale, for one of his innovative cocktail recipes. This light, herbaceous libation shines with its bright notes from fresh mint, the refreshing flavor of muddled cucumbers, and the warm, slightly spicy complexity from Velvet Falernum, a sugarcane-derived syrup that contains hints of almond, ginger, cloves, and lime. The drink is featured in the trio's gorgeous new cookbook, Downtown Italian. But don't fret if you can't get your hands on a copy in time... Read more >
Happy Hour: Hot Spiced Wine
The holidays have come and gone, the streets are littered with discarded Christmas trees, and the temperatures have dropped to cruel lows in many parts of the country. With winter doldrums in full bloom, we could all use a little something to warm our hands and spirits. Hot spiced wine, also known as "mulled wine," goes by many names: glögg in Swedish, glühwein in German, vin chaud in French, and so on, and varies slightly from country to country. Simmer whatever red wine you have leftover from holiday reveling with cloves, oranges, lemon rinds, sugar, bay leaves, and your choice of dark spirit for James Beard's own spin on the classic winter libation. Get the recipe here for a decidedly cozy start to your weekend.

Happy Hour: PDT's Paddington
Start your weekend early with this whimsical riff on the Hemingway Daiquiri made with a spoonful of orange marmalade, the fictional Paddington Bear's treat of choice. Created by David Slape of New York City's famed PDT, which took home our inaugural Outstanding Bar Program award in 2012, the drink balances the punch of its absinthe and rum base with delicate, floral notes of Lillet Blanc and a bright twist from fresh lemon and grapefruit juices. Get the recipe here.

Happy Hour: Native Dancer
Feeling weary from the workweek? Brighten your Friday evening with a little tiki-inspired magic from the mixology masters at New York City's acclaimed Pouring Ribbons. The aptly named Native Dancer riffs on the ubiquitous daiquiri while adding welcome notes of citrus, cinnamon, and kaffir lime. According to owner/bartender Joaquín Simó, "Don the Beachcomber (the inventor of Tiki) famously stated that what one rum can't do, three rums can. I decided to one-up him and stretch that to four rums." We recommend making large batches of the cinnamon bark syrup and Don's mix, so you can keep the building blocks for this vibrant cocktail on hand and drift off to your imaginary island paradise as frequently as you like. Get the recipe.

Happy Hour: Le Père-Bis Hot Toddy
It's Halloween, the cool weather has set in, and there's a pumpkin-spiced something everywhere you turn. It's official: winter's coming. And for cocktail enthusiasts, that can only mean one thing: to warm our chilled hands and protect our weary immune systems, it's time to bust out the hot toddy. For this elegant version made with Scotch whisky and chamomile tea, acclaimed mixologist Jim Meehan of the JBF Award–winning PDT uses St-Germain to add delicate, floral undertones to this wintertime sipper. Get the recipe here for a decidedly cozy start to your weekend.

Happy Hour: The BACARDÍ Old Cuban
Our national epicurean tour, James Beard Foundation's Taste America®, has been making stops all across the country this fall for fantastic, food-filled weekends. One of our favorite sips at these events has been the world-renowned Old Cuban. Invented by famed bartender Audrey Saunders during her tenure at New York City's Bemelmans Bar, the drink was specifically crafted with BACARDÍ 8 Años rum as its base, and is now recognized as a modern classic. If you can't make it to one of our final JBF Taste America stops this weekend, don't despair: we've got the Old Cuban recipe right here.

Happy Hour: The Violet Hour's Hush and Wonder
The Violet Hour, an elegant Chicago watering hole and 2014 Outstanding Bar Program nominee, beckons discerning clientele with many luxuries: a romantic, serene space with floor-to-ceiling curtains, high-backed blue leather chairs, flickering candles and chandeliers; fine-tuned volume levels and elbow room; and an eclectic selection of artisanal cocktails made with painstaking precision. One shining example of partner/mixologist Toby Maloney's craft is the Hush and Wonder, a rum-based libation featuring a subtle Crème de Violette rinse. With an elegant, floral undertone and bright notes from fresh lime juice and grapefruit bitters, this drink is the perfect start to your weekend. Get the recipe here.

Happy Hour: Cucumber Margarita
Forget kale juice or spirulina smoothies: our favorite way to drink our veggies is with this ultra-smooth and refreshing cucumber margarita from JBF Award winner Rick Bayless (the delightful cocktail is also one of the featured recipes in our brand new JBF Vegetables app). The tequila–cucumber base is blended and strained to achieve the perfect mix of health and hair of the dog. Sip this during your happy hour, and you might just end up with a bit of a virtuous buzz.
Happy Hour: James Beard's Standard Manhattan
Don Draper's brooding gaze and chiseled features aren't the only appeal of AMC's Mad Men—for serious cocktail enthusiasts, the hit television series also provided a weekly fix of timeless libations. One such example is the Manhattan, which is rumored to have originated at New York City's Manhattan Club is 1874, and is made from a strapping blend of Rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, and a dash of Angostura bitters. Classic, elegant, and strong, this cocktail is the liquid form of Don Draper himself. To start your weekend with unequivocal grace, get the recipe James Beard favored and start sipping.

Happy Hour: Chambord Margarita
If you're still clinging to the last days of summer, give this cocktail a spin. The bright raspberry punch of Chambord will take your mind off the changing leaves, and the tequila base will warm you from the inside out. Leave those sweaters in storage for now, and get the recipe here.

Start Here if Your New - Lily's Birth Story
Liam's Pregnancy - All The Links

Merry Christmas!
Our 2014 Christmas Card:

A Woodland Animal Birthday Party
Lydia's First Birthday (and party) was Saturday, November 1st.
We celebrated with a Woodland Animal themed party.
I made her birthday invite and then based everything else around it.
I got all the ideas for the food from pinterest {of course}
The day before the party I found hedgehog, owl and squirrel cookie cutters at World Market for $.99! It was meant to be!
These "Mushroom Caps" were made with cream cheese frosting I died pink and then I stuck white chocolate chips in them upside down.
The chocolate mushrooms are available for purchase at
World Market.
The acorns were made using Hershey Chocolate Kisses, Mini Vanilla Wafers and Mini Chocolate Chips, then I used melted Candy Quick to "glue" them together.
Hedgehogs were doughnut holes dipped in Candy Quick and then dipped in chocolate jimmies.
The cake was done by
The Gingerbread House
. They do amazing work, I just gave them her invitation and they recreated it on the cake. I cannot say enough good things about The Gingerbread House cakes, they are amazing looking and tasting.
Lydia's Smash Cake also by The Gingerbread House
For the "big kids" we had Sub Sandwiches and a Chili Bar.
Favor Bags were a S'more bag with: Teddy Grahams, Mini Marshmallows and Whoppers
I made this little banner to go on Lydia's highchair during her cake...and you know what? I forgot to move it to the highchair - oh well!
I made Lydia's scrap skirt, her shirt and her headband, her legwarmers are from
TheRitzBoutique Etsy seller
. {on a side note: she is starting to sell leggings now that are blowing my mind}
I also made matching shirts for Lily and Liam from extra fabric that was left over from Lydia's skirt. I made Lily's match bow and her leg warmers are from the same
Etsy seller.
During our picture with the cake, someone may have dipped their little toes in it!
Singing Happy Birthday!!
Time for cake!
She had a wonderful first birthday!!!
The next day we opened presents...she loved it and got a lot of amazing gifts!

November 5, 2013 BY Brendan Dunne / 1
You're going to be hearing a lot about Eminem this week thanks to the release of his latest opus, The Marshall Mathers LP 2. Complex is getting a good amount of mileage with their "Eminem Week", on that has effected their sneaker channel in the form of this compilation of some of his greatest sneaker moments. Missing are some of the most sought after sneakers connected to the man, as his on feet fare generally consists of much more pedestrian offerings like the Nike Air Max 90, a gathering of Jordans, and the strangely ubiquitous Air Max Wright. Continue reading for a selection from the group and then get the rest at Complex.

The most famous Dutch cheese, Edam, is made with partially-skimmed cow's milk, and is meant to be eaten within weeks of its creation, while it's still smooth. Pasteurized milk is heated and bacteria is added to increase the acidity level. Liquid rennet is added to create curd, and the curd is cut into tiny pieces, then heated, drained, molded and pressed. After the cheese is salted, it ripens and is exported wrapped in red wax. Read More- Country: Netherlands

- Cheese Milk Type: Cow
- Cheese Age: 2-3 months
Smoked Gouda
Originally a Dutch cheese, versions of Gouda are now made by artisan cheesemakers throughout the world, like Michigan's Old Europe Cheese. Old Europe's Smoked Gouda is unique in that it's smoked using a "cold smoke" process, which preserves the cheese's inherent flavor and moisture. Read More- Country: United States

Beehive Promontory
This 1st Place winner in 2011 at the American Cheese Society is known for its buttery, full-bodied, semi-firm texture and snappy, citrus-like fruity notes. As the patriarch of Utah's Beehive Cheese Company's family of cheeses, Promontory is equally great on its own on a cheese board with some dates and honey, or with anything you would pair a cheddar-style cheese with, like a Panini or grated on a salad.

Seafood near the Ritz on Peachtree?
- 7
- Follow
Any suggestions for the best seafood in this area or near the Merchandise Mart?
re: Alica
Actually yes.
The Oceanaire Seafood Room & there's Atlanta Fish Market over in Buckhead. We've eaten at both.....very good.
Also, if you're willing to go to Buckhead, Chops is a great restaurant as well.
Chops & Atlanta Fish Market are in the same group. Their whole Buckhead Life Group has fantastic restaurants. If you like Greek, Kyma is awesome.
If you're looking for walking options, Ray's in the City is your closest bet. Traditional steakhouse/seafood restaurant, and it's just 1 block away. A longer walk gets you to Legal Seafoods or McCormick & Schmick.

i like McCormick and Schmicks in the omni--- usually very good seafood maybe 1o minute walk..also Dantannas is there too, but youd have to limit your choices, but they have had salmon--its not really a seafood spot

I found a work around for when I was screwing around with 3D Vision since the FX seem to be layered in STO where I add the STO client exe (live/GameClient.exe) and then force/enhance AA and AF and a lot of FX not in game. The only problem with this is that the game must run in full screen and its sorta buggy. The drivers don't seem to like STO and mobile graphics card (own a Lenovo Y570 with a GT555), its almost like the acceleration doesn't want to kick in and I get the same performance as with the Intel graphics.

Reinstate Zurick!
Hello ladies and gentlemen. I come to you today as I never have before. Today I come to you as a concerned member of this forum we all visit in our free time. There has been quite a bit of hearsay about why Zurick was banned. The truth is...it isn't important. I don't remember why it was, you don't remember why it was and if you are anything like the majority of us you weren't bothered by it. This has got on for too long. The powers that be at CAWs.ws don't think you care. That's bsuiness as usual. As with any system of government not in the hands of the people decisions are made based on nothing more favouritism, egotism and apathy. But what the decision makers have not counted on is the voice of you and I. we are the opposition to those that want to control the content made available to you. These keystrokes will not be muffled by the drones content with substandard product. We want quality, we want care, we want Zurick. Before you answer this poll ladies and gentlemen you must ask youself this question. You must ask yourself, did I want Zurick gone Did I ask for him to be banned from this forum Who made that decision and why do they refuse to remove the ban Take back your message board today! Make your voice count and with your new found vocal chords tell the powers that be you're mad as hell and you're not going to take it anymore~! I want you to scroll back to the top of this message and I want you to remember what it means to be an individual, you're all you have left. If Zurick has done anything wrong it has been working for far too long to providing the wrestling game community with content unmatched by many of the seasoned members of the fold. He is a household name and to this day strives to give you what you want and never fails to please. It makes no sense to continue on this way, you know it, I know it and if they don't already, let the self-righteous moderators you never elected know damn well what it means to be free. I'm Walks With The Wind and I approve this message.

"The Pieced Drawing book is great and the Appliqué Drawing book is exceptional. I'll be recommending both in classes."
- Barb Gorges, Cheyenne, WY -
"There is so much information just in the first chapter. Patti explains how to draft a block then gives many examples of blocks to create and add to a library. There are 6 parts to the first chapter and so far I only have the rectangle patchdraw library complete. I am still working on the circle patchdraw blocks which include Mariners' Compass blocks, the arc grid patchwork blocks which allow you to create blocks for a NY Beauty type quilt and 8 pointed star blocks. So I have a long ways to go to finish just the first chapter. And I have learned a lot so far. It is quite a challenge and I hope that many of you will buy Patti's book as you will learn a lot more about how to use EQ6."

Pierce making sure Giants focus on what really matters
A respected leader who craves winning more than the limelight, veteran LB Antonio Pierce is arguably the most essential player on the Giants' defense, writes Jeffri Chadiha.
PHOENIX -- New York Giants middle linebacker Antonio Pierce ducked and dodged the question like a polished politician Monday night.
He had been asked, rather simply, if he really was responsible for several teammates' wearing monotone black suits on their flight to Phoenix for Super Bowl XLII, and he wouldn't take credit.
"You have to wear a suit anyway, so we all decided it would be great for team unity," Pierce said, adding that at least 38 players on the Giants' 53-man roster followed through on the idea. "We had a couple of guys who didn't get the memo, but these things happen."
It's actually not surprising that Pierce wasn't eager to rush into the spotlight on this occasion. Sure, he's an outspoken leader on the Giants' defense, a brash seventh-year veteran with a flair for the well-timed quote. But he's also not overly concerned with how much recognition is coming his way. He'd rather keep his teammates focused on winning a championship and his defense sturdy enough to make that goal happen.
This, by the way, is what makes Pierce so important to the Giants' defense. It's also why his teammates are happy that he'll be the man making the defensive calls when they face the high-powered New England Patriots offense Sunday.
"Antonio has all the intangibles you want in a leader," Giants defensive end Michael Strahan said. "I might be the guy who's making the locker room speeches and yelling on the sidelines, but he's the one who people really listen to when he speaks. He has a calming effect on this defense when he's on the field. I always feel more comfortable knowing he's out there."
That impact has plenty to do with the expectations that Pierce has to live up to every time he takes the field. When he signed a free-agent deal with the Giants in 2005 -- he spent the first four years of his career in Washington after entering the league as an undrafted free agent -- he knew all about the Giants' heritage at linebacker. The dominance of Sam Huff. The versatility of Carl Banks. Heck, he walked past shrines to Hall of Famers Harry Carson and Lawrence Taylor every time he entered the Giants' locker room.
So far, Pierce has given those former New York stars plenty of reasons to believe he's continuing their proud tradition. Pierce led the Giants in tackles this season (103) and he had 137 stops in 2006. When he missed three games in 2005, teammates say, the Giants' defense suffered so much that opposing runners had no problems finding wide-open running lanes. And though Pierce isn't perfect -- he created a controversy when he blared a bullhorn during an interview session following the Giants' 0-2 start this season -- he did help revitalize a defense that has allowed more than 20 points to just two opponents since that time.
Pierce takes great pride in those numbers, along with the relationships he's built with former Giants greats. He talks with Carson every week and has had several conversations with other former New York linebackers, including his good friend and former Redskins teammate Jessie Armstead.
"I've had a chance to meet guys like Carson, Brad Van Pelt and a whole bunch of other guys who are always on the sidelines for games," Pierce said. "When I came here, I knew what it was going to be like. I wear Carl Banks' old number [58]. You can't wear a number like that on this team unless you expect to do great things."
The Giants all believe Pierce filled an important void on their defense when he arrived three seasons ago. When Armstead left the team following the 2001 season, the Giants lost one of their most respected leaders on defense. Then linebacker Mike Barrow signed with Washington in 2004, and another strong voice had vanished from the defense that led New York to Super Bowl XXXV.
Now that the Giants are playing for the title again, Pierce is stressing the same sense of urgency among his teammates that those other players emphasized seven years ago.
What he also understands is that the Giants' defensive success will hinge largely on the moves he makes as the quarterback of the defense.
"[New England quarterback] Tom Brady is very poised when he leaves the huddle and comes to the line of scrimmage," Pierce said. "He doesn't show you a lot, so it's my job to make sure the defense gets into the right positions. It's like a chess game out there."
It's also a chess game the Giants didn't handle well in the second half of their first meeting with New England. What irritates Pierce the most about the 38-35 loss to the Patriots on Dec. 29 is the 12-point lead the Giants blew. New York had a perfect opportunity to ruin New England's hopes for an undefeated season. Instead, the Giants let that moment slip away as Brady and Randy Moss proved why the Patriots are so tough to beat in the first place.
This time around, Pierce is seeking a much different outcome. As he said, "We're not trying to be a feel-good story here. We're trying to take the [Lombardi Trophy] back to New York with us."
Right now, it's hard to know whether the Giants really are good enough to pull one of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl history. What is clear, however, is that Pierce will be a major factor in any success they have on Sunday.

Kyo watched as the man held Trixy and moved over to her, attempting to take her from hin. Her worry for the girl was clearly written on her face. Why? Why had they brought her here? How stupid of an idea was that? She was just a young girl, they shouldn't have included her in this. She tried her best to hide her concern and keep herself emotionally distant and cold, but was failing obviously. It seemed the true reality of her job was starting to reach her. ((EDITs cause I'm stupid and other stuff))
((Bumpzorz. This is Cupcake. My account haz technical difficulties.))
A dark figure stood in the darkness nearby the ship. He was not one of the people hired to kill or to spy. He was here to watch and protect someone, but did not want to show his presence yet because it would lead to more difficulties or so he thought. His red visor glowed as he watches the commotion on the dock. He knew two of these people, The little magician and the more boyish one.
((Shadow wait, did you ask about this?))
((Yes....as long as I don't advance the plot))
((Don't worry, it was confirmed in client.))
((Alright, I was just curious >.>))
Kiang Li
((By advance the plot, I meant not to make large events without my express permission. This thread will give you a clue.)) Li was pointing at Louis, enraged that he was brought here with little reason. His mask had fallen on the ground, stomped under his feet, and his entire face was frowning. The argument settled just at the sight of the little girl slinged over a man's shoulder. He looked, just as the frown almost did not fade. Everyone else's heads followed. "What is this?!" He demanded, enraged. "You're welcome." Lucas mumbled, sighing, looking down, feeling dishonoured. He dropped the body down on the floor, yet cushioning it with a slight tension of his arm just before it would have slammed. "She was in danger of being taken by others, and was being formidable. I had no choice." "A little girl? Formidable?" he asked as his arm descended back to his body. He stood properly again. "How?" he asked as his voice seemed to be calmer. Lucas did not reply, but rather he rushed towards his leader and whispered into his ears; "The Hex-Nuclear Area is deserted." Louis frowned from what he heard. Despite celebrations, the Hex-Nuclear Area had countless numbers of people, working to ensure that there was light in this city of browned darkness. He shook his head, finding that the words of Lucas may have been right: the girl was formidable, even for her age. "Who is she, and why was she brought here?!" he demanded. "She is with us. Her name is Trixy and she is also here to share the bounty from the job given." "And providing the bounty?" "...is I. I will provide the bounty. I was told that you had information of where Ruby Kiang was. Her name, as I said it, is in Common Order, not Ionian." "Hmm." Lucas stepped back from the snake-bound man, expecting to hear words. "Wake her up. Lil' girl's ain't gon' survive with someone carryin' 'er." The slender man took out his flask. Despite the fact that it was alcoholic, he did not question his leader's orders. He poured down the flash full of Graggy Ice unto Trixy's face.
Mort looked on as the three men argued, unsure of what to do. When Trixy was set down on the floor, he knelt down beside her to look her over but had to back off as the drink was poured onto her face. Graggy Ice, he couldn't complain except when some splashed onto his trousers, that was going to stain.
Kyo knelt beside Trixy, worry once again painted across her face. She looked up angrily at the man when he poured Graggy Ice on Trixy's face, clearly angry at his actions. Kyo took her vest off, attempting to use it to dry Trixy's face. "Hey, are you alright?"

- Cooking Time:
- Servings:
- Preparation Time:
- 1 lb. of ground turkey (or ground beef)
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 pkg. of Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix
- 1 pkg. taco seasoning mix
- 1 can pinto beans
- 1 can chile hot beans
- 1 can whole kernel corn
- 1 can stewed tomatoes (mexican flavoring)
- Brown meat and onion; drain. Mix everything (without draining) together in pot for simmering or a crockpot. Simmer for one hour or longer if using crockpot. I cook on low for 3-4 hours. Delicious served with baked tortilla chips, fat free sour cream, and taco cheese. Makes 12 1-cup servings.
I take this to work alot for carry-ins. It is always a hit. Can be a little spicy for some, I sometimes get mild beans and tomatoes.

The Washington Nationals will keep first baseman-outfielder Chris Marrero on their major league roster after recalling him from Triple-A Syracuse for the day-night doubleheader against the Minnesota Twins.
Manager Davey Johnson said the Nationals will send down outfielder Tyler Moore, who is hitting .149 this season.
Marrero was batting .306 with 10 home runs and 44 RBIs with Syracuse. He was 0 for 1 as a pinch hitter in the first game of Sunday's doubleheader.
Marrero last played with the Nationals in 2011, appearing in 31 games and hitting .248 with 10 RBIs.
He was Washington's first-round selection at No. 15 overall in the 2006 draft.

An email I received today read as follows:
Dear Blogger
[Removed] is having a tie up promotion with the bloggers to reward your loyal followers with an attractive discounts on any travel insurance that they buy through your website. We will provide a hyperlink for your website. It will also spike more traffic into your website. Please kindly revert if you are interested and I will be glad to follow you through this process.
Thank you and have a great day ahead.
Warmest Regards,
[Name and email address removed]
So let's count the problems with this email.
- Dear Blogger? Do a mail merge and use my name at least.
- '… a tie up promotion with the bloggers' is a seriously awkward phrase. Sounds a bit kinky, even.
- '… an attractive discounts'? Really? How did you get this job without a basic grasp of grammar?
- How exactly will my linking to your website 'spike more traffic into' mine? I foresee the main beneficiary of a bunch of blogs linking to your site being your company.
- What will I 'revert' to if I'm interested? A younger, more gullible self?
- I'm honestly not sure how you can run this promotion if you intend to follow — not guide — me through the process of being a sucker and giving you an inbound link.
I'm too sleep deprived to even pretend to suffer fools gladly, so please come up with something more thought-out and I won't make fun of you next time.

This Thursday, Apple is poised to do something its never done before --- give a formal presentation at the Black Hat security conference. According to Bloomberg, Dallas De Atley of Apple's platform security team will give a presentation on iOS security to the hackers in attendance.
This isn't the first scheduled showing by an Apple representative. A panel presentation by Apple employees was slated for Black Hat 2008, but the event was abruptly canceled when the marketing department found out about it. This bit of trivia comes from Black Hat general manager Trey Ford who discussed the matter with Bloomberg.
Black Hat 2012 is significant as the security conference is celebrating its 15th anniversary. Five of the speakers from the first Black Hat event are returning and will present their vision of security for the next 15 years. You can follow the events via Black Hat's twitter account or its Facebook account. Images will be posted on its Flickr account as well.

Simple to use node.js FTP client for downloading remote files
Simple FTP client for node.js implemented in pure JavaScript. Useful for downloading files from a remote location, therefore it implements just a small subset of the FTP protocol. Includes a method, modeled after HTTP's HEAD in order to check the existence of a remote resource without downloading its contents. The ftp.head() method uses the FTP SIZE command which a RFC 3659 extension to the protocol, since 2007. However, in practice most FTP servers implement the SIZE extension before the RFC publishing date.
Either manually clone this repository into your node_modules directory, or the recommended method:
npm install ftp-get
Usage mode
- The ftp.get method
- The ftp.head method
Bug reporting
Unlike 0.2 and before, the 0.3 version of ftp-get went through extensive testing with real world FTP servers. However, some edge cases may still fail. Therefore, in order to have a proper bug repot I'm kindly asking you to provide the troublesome FTP URL (if possible).
I'd appreciate the output of this script as well:
NODE_ENV=development node client.js ftp://example.com/ftp/url.foo
// client.js var ftp = require'ftp-get' var url = processargv2 ftpgeturl 'dl.bin' console.logerr res
