Maybe at some point after they're all finally out companies, agencies, colleges, etc. will finally realize that using SSN's as their unique identifiers of choice is dangerous.
Using SSN as an identifier isn't really the problem.
It's that they want it to be BOTH the public identifier AND the private password.
If it is just an identifier, you should be able to use it publicly - but the whole idea is that you need to guard it and keep it secret because they are treating your knowledge of it as proof that you actually belong to the account is where the problem arises. Either it is just a record number, in which case it shouldn't be a secret - or it is your password, in which case you should have a public record number that isn't secret.
it wouldn't be an issue if the SSN didn't have to be kept secret. there should be an easily changeable pin that goes with the SSN that you use when you need to apply for a loan or something.
or treat it more like credit card numbers and make it easier to get a new one if it becomes public.
another option issue one time use numbers like some credit card companies do.
there isn't necessarily anything wrong with having a unique identifier for people. the current implementation however is the problem.

The marriage of food and beer is synergistic. It opens the door to creativity on the chopping block. Multicourse dinners featuring a single brewery's curated selection of beers have been popular nationwide for years; locally, these half-liquid collaborations are taking place about once a month at Whole Foods Market in Mandarin. (Pre-sale tickets, ranging from $35-$40, include all of your food and beer.)
At the most recent dinner, Kristine Day from Sierra Nevada Brewing Company and Whole Foods' Rachel Deremer hosted a five-course pairing that included diverse beer selections: Sierra's robust Bigfoot Barleywine, slightly tart Brux ale, wheat Kellerweis, hoppy Ruthless Rye IPA and a collaboration ale, Ovila Abbey Quad, as well as a welcoming simple pale ale served upon arrival. All were hearty pours, and you got a logo-emblazoned keepsake pint glass.
After we were seated, Day gave an overview of Sierra Nevada and the company's history, and explained the brewing process and various components that comprise beer. For show-and-tell, a jar of Cascade finishing hops was passed from table to table.
With a warm welcome and pair of manchego cheese-stuffed prosciutto-wrapped medjool dates that were all things savory, salty and sweet, the evening took off with a pour of the deeply hued Bigfoot Barleywine. Strong, and boldly flavored, it clocked in at a hefty 9.6 percent alcohol content.
Selecting the right beer to complement a dish is like winning the food lottery. Generally speaking, beer's carbonation helps to rid the tongue of fat, readying it for the next forkful. Hop-forward beers work well with fattier foods, helping to counterbalance rich sauces and lessening the dense feeling in your mouth. Malt-forward beers are better for spicy foods, as the malt's subtle sweetness tames the heat.
Following a bouillabaisse swimming with shrimp and mussels — paired with a copper-colored American wild ale called Brux — came a simple palate cleanser, a light mix of … More
It's hard to top a great meal enjoyed in a modern space with a well-curated wine list in the center of bustling, historic San Marco Square. Taverna recently expanded after four years in the former Café Carmon spot. It's evident that Executive Chef Sam Efron and wine director/wife Kiley Wynne Efron are passionate about the new environment and wider-ranging menu.
So what's new? Taverna now boasts a quick-casual lunch service along with an option for lunch delivery, a classy private dining room and the addition of craft cocktails (they'd offered only beer and wine before) to the menu.
The menu remains European-inspired, drawing from both Spain and Italy. Start with the house-made caprese ($10) with prosciutto ($6), meatballs and peasant bread ($10), sautéed calamari ($12) or citrus-marinated beet salad ($9).
The caprese's house-made cheese is amazing in and of itself, but when paired with fresh basil, juicy tomato, balsamic and olive oil, it's a huge hit. (The upcharge to add prosciutto is worth every penny.) The meatballs were also good, and the calamari served with Israeli couscous, tomatoes, garlic, capers, niçoise olives and a touch of lemon zest was just the right amount of spicy.
Speaking of great cheese, Taverna's customizable cheese-and-charcuterie plates are another smart way to start your meal. And since the selections change frequently, be sure to partake in Sweet Grass Dairy's delightfully creamy Green Hill, from Thomasville, Ga. The meat selections include popular cured meats like jamon Serrano, prosciutto di parma, hot capocollo, soppressata, Genoa salami and chorizo.
Lately, it's been hard to pass up the Monday night special — any of Taverna's signature brick-oven pizzas paired with a pint of cold Intuition Ale Works beer for $12. The pizzas usually run up to $18, and another $5 for the beer. (That's 11 bucks you can put toward dessert.) I recommend the soppressata — topped with house-made mozzarella, juicy robust San Marzano … More
I love pizza. And you do, too. I mean, who doesn't? There's something intrinsically comforting and magical about the harmony of that scalding-hot gooey cheese, a proper smear of flavorful sauce, a mishmash of crazy toppings and the crisp, chewy crust.
We all have lists of our favorite pizza joints in town, but there's something to be said about a place around the corner that's good, cheap and easy. And sometimes I just like the laidback vibe, fun décor, wafting music and oversized comfortable booths at Moon River.
It's low frills: walk in, peruse the chalkboard menu, place your order, pay. You'll receive a framed postcard that's totally random (think Mr. Rogers or My Little Pony on roller skates), which will help your server know who ordered what. Grab a seat and they'll bring it to you.
Feeling healthy? Begin with a salad. I enjoy the Greek, because it's fresh and simple but not wimpy — leafy Romaine topped with sliced tomatoes, strips of green pepper, both green and black olives (olive lovers, rejoice!), fresh mushrooms, slices of onion and crumbles of feta cheese. And the accompanying creamy Caesar dressing is dreamy. (I dunk my pizza crust in it, too.)
If you're not counting calories (lucky you), start with the pesto stix ($4.75) or bread stix ($4.50), which are generously portioned and perfect for sharing.
Moon River's pizza is best when ordered as an entire pie rather than just a slice or two. My favorite is the white (large $16.50, slice $2), which is sauce-less and topped with a blend of mozzarella, feta and Parmesan, extra virgin olive oil, fresh garlic, oregano and a sprinkle of black pepper.
On other occasions, I'll grab a slice of the vegetarian just because it's so stacked with veggies. Like, there's literally a pile, and many of them are raw (tomatoes, onions, peppers). More cheese is then added on top and re-melted.
You can, of course, create your own pies from the list of two dozen toppings, and there's options for … More
Until recently, there was only one choice for Ethiopian cuisine in town. Now there are two. That means two excuses to eat with your hands, people!
Situated in a small strip center near ethnic shops and specialty stores off Baymeadows and Old Baymeadows roads, Ibex Ethiopian Kitchen is a spacious restaurant with an assortment of tables, booths and bar seats, and a straightforward menu.
If you've never experienced Ethiopian cuisine, you may be surprised to find your silverware missing. Instead, you'll use injera, a room-temperature, fermented spongy bread served in rolls. When the basket arrives, unroll, pinch off a piece and use it to pinch and pick up food.
If you have had Ethiopian fare, at Ibex you'll find traditional favorites like sambusas, kitfo, tibs, wots and much more.
We first ordered the savory lentil, cabbage, carrot, onion and jalapeno pepper sambusas ($3.95 for two), but our server politely informed us that the kitchen had run out. Next time for sure.
Eager to try a bit of everything, we then ordered the chef's special combination platter ($29.95). Ideal for two; with an appetizer, three people could easily share this. It arrived nicely plated in a rainbow-like assortment. There was a good bounty of mostly vegetarian items: cabbage, collard greens, lentils, green beans, split peas and kitfo (minced steak tartare with an herbed butter sauce and spiced chili powder). There were also three individual bowls of various meat-filled stews — chicken doro wat, beef alicha and key wot, a stew of beef cubes with onions, cooked in a bright red bebere (a spice mixture including chili peppers, garlic, ginger and fenugreek) butter sauce.
Our server helped us select a good Ethiopian beer to complement our selections. Even the chef came out to introduce herself and make sure everything was to our liking.
Prices for signature meat entrées, served with your choice of vegetarian sides, range from $11.95 … More
With nearly four dozen sushi rolls to choose from — classics to deep-fried treasures to vegetarian and vegan-friendly options — at Sushiko there's something for everyone.
On a recent lunch visit, I ordered a Bento Box ($9.25). You select two items — sushi rolls or three pieces of sashimi or an assortment of tempuras, teriyakis and starters — along with a choice of fried rice or pan-fried lo mein noodles. And there's more — miso or clear soup and a side salad with ginger dressing.
I picked the miso soup, which was loaded with seaweed and cubed tofu, a spicy white tuna and avocado roll, noodles, and the steamed-shrimp-filled shumai dumplings.
A new favorite is the Icy Veggie Roll ($6.25), which is rice-less and wrapped in rice paper instead of seaweed, then stuffed with seaweed salad, lettuce, avocado, cucumber, carrot and asparagus and served with a light ponzu sauce. It's both healthy and refreshing, but nonetheless packs a powerful textural crunch.
And I tried something new (to me) — uni ($3.25), aka sea urchin. It arrived over rice and had a burnt-orange hue. It was creamy and custard-like, and briney, which reminded me of the ocean.
The fried sweet potato roll ($4.25) proved to be simple yet satisfying. And for heat-seekers, the Diablo ($8.75), with tuna, salmon, yellowtail and krab, fried and then topped with scallions, shrimp sauce and hot sauce, was a hit.
The interior space offers natural light flooding in from large windows, soothing peach-colored walls and dark wood tables and chairs. Our server was friendly and attentive, always a winning combination in my book.
Open seven days a week for dine-in lunch and dinner or carry-out, Sushiko also serves beer, wine and sake if you're thirsty.

Jacksonville restaurateur Michael Thomas, of Sterling's and 24 Miramar, opened Terra in late February. Touted as "a deceptively simple, innovative dining experience," Terra's menu is intentionally limited out of the gate. Dishes are created with an emphasis on local, sustainable ingredients, resulting in frequent menu changes to feature the freshest of ingredients. Terra will soon add an organic vegetable and herb garden near its outdoor patio space.
While relatively small, the seating area is spacious with plenty of windows and a soon-to-be-completed patio area, just in time for spring. Formerly the Patio at Pastiche, Terra received a minor facelift — including an awning and new interior paint in an earthy terracotta color. The bar area seats about 15, where a few local brews are featured on draft.
We arrived in time for happy hour (3-6 p.m. weeknights) and scored half-priced glasses of wine. Our table of four started with three small plates: French fries with freshly grated parmesan, truffle oil and creamy garlicky aioli, a cheese plate and charcuterie. The fries were delightfully crisp — not one was burned or soggy. The hint of truffle oil was detectable, the parmesan and aioli finished the savory treat.
Our charcuterie (a plate with small mounds of prepared meats) featured toasted crostini, perfect for piling the thin slices of dry-cured Serrano ham, soppressata and Genoa salami. Tangy homemade pickled green beans and onions, along with a spicy French Maille whole grain mustard, rounded out the dish. Our cheese plate included an extremely pungent (but surprisingly delicious) bleu cheese, a slightly smoky, spicy chipotle cheddar and a spreadable brie. Colorful strawberries, thinly sliced apples, crisp crostini, sweet honey, pecans, figs and a fig jam share the plate — begging to be paired with the cheeses.
One star of the evening arrived next: the wilted frisée salad. Tossed with shallots, cubes of … More
Love enjoying your breakfast or lunch while peering into an open kitchen, using free Wi-Fi and leaving with a full stomach due to generous portions made with fresh ingredients? Then look no further than Uptown Market.
Brought to you by the same owners as downtown hot spot Burrito Gallery, Uptown Market has created a name for itself in historic Springfield by serving breakfast and lunch daily and brunch on the weekends — in a clean, fresh, modern space. And the best news of all: Dinner service should be starting in May.
Peek into the open kitchen and watch as Chef Eddy Escriba whips up clever lunch specials that are posted to Facebook every morning. Lunch is 11 a.m.-2 p.m., and the specials change daily based on what's fresh. One day you might find a bison burger with jalapeño havarti and bacon, while on another, you'll see anything from Cajun catfish and sweet corn grits with Creole tomato sauce to Puerto Rican-style picadillo with ground beef, peppers, raisins, capers, potatoes and onions over rice.
The menu is solid without being overly complicated. For breakfast, there's brioche French toast, buttermilk pancakes, omelets, frittatas, eggs, crêpes and traditional breakfast specials like huevos rancheros, lox and bagel, and eggs Benedict. Insider tip: You can order a single fluffy buttermilk pancake if you desire. Best idea ever. (Well, that and those vitamin-C-packed $10 bottomless mimosas on the weekends.) With butter and a side of maple syrup, these light, spongy pancakes are the stuff breakfast dreams are made of.
That one pancake comes in handy when ordering the big-as-your-head breakfast burrito — eggs, chorizo sausage, home fries, cheddar cheese and salsa stuffed in an oversized flour tortilla — because I can hardly finish the burrito <> an entire stack of pancakes. My pick is the "ranch eggs" or huevos rancheros. This traditional Latin American dish features crispy flour … More
A question I get asked regularly: "What are your three favorite restaurants in Jacksonville?" Without missing a beat, I rattle off my favorite, Avondale's very own Orsay. (The other two require a bit more thought.) I often take out-of-town guests, co-workers and friends for there drinks, dinner or special occasions.
From the moment I walk through the door, to the last morsel of homemade ice cream I devour, Orsay never fails to provide a fantastic experience. A tough day can quickly be forgotten upon entering Orsay, with its dim lights, flickering white candles, modern wallpaper, exposed rustic wood rafters and hip music wafting through the air. Creative cocktails and a ridiculously awesome happy hour don't hurt, either.
It's rare that I order an entrée (and I can't order lunch beacause the spot's only open for dinner and weekend brunch) because I crave so many of Orsay's appetizers. Evenings begin with a cheese plate and oysters. Sometimes I opt for raw oysters, other times I gravitate toward the roasted oysters with salty bacon, spinach and melted parmigiano-reggiano cheese — perfectly smooth and smoky.
The escargots (yes, that's French for snails), served in the shell, with a garlicky butter and thick, sautéed portobello mushroom slices, are a savory delicacy. They're served with crusty bread, perfect for sopping up the extra garlic butter.
The crunchy haricots vert (pronounced "airicovair," not "hair-ih-cots verts") are thin French green beans. Together with roasted hazelnuts, ripe halved grape tomatoes and a tangy crème fraiche vinaigrette, they make for a light salad too good to pass up.
In my opinion, the combo of chefs Jonathan Insetta (also of Black Sheep Restaurant) and Brian Siebenschuh creates "Top Chef" quality.
The steak frites — a perfectly cooked hangar steak with a salty, seared crust, served with a tower of thinly cut crisp frites fried in duck fat for extra flavor — are an Orsay dinner … More
It's 2013, and times are changing. To some, meat is out and vegetables are in. Hoping to cater to this growing demographic, Dig Foods opened its doors Downtown in mid-April.
Dig Food's first permanent spot is inside music venue Underbelly. Previously, Chef Sean Sigmon crafted his popular vegan fare on-the-go at already established venues like Intuition Ale Works, Bold Bean Coffee Roasters, CoRK Arts District and Downtown's First Wednesday Art Walk. For a while, it was rumored that Sigmon might start a food truck featuring his vegan offerings.
Sigmon's ever-changing menu focuses on organic and local ingredients. Even the bread is made locally by Community Loaves, and since everything is vegan, that means no meat, dairy or animal products are used.
At a noon Tuesday lunch, almost all of the tables were filled. You place your order, pay and seat yourself. Your food is brought out to you by a server, but it may not arrive at the same time as your companions' orders, as it's all made-to-order.
My lunch was surprisingly filling, despite being meatless. And for $13, I was able to try three different menu items. The first was a grilled kale and roasted carrot salad atop protein-packed fluffy quinoa and drizzled with a light parsley vinaigrette. I'd never had grilled kale and found it interesting in both texture and flavor. My second item was a generous portion of roasted balsamic cauliflower, which had a slight tanginess that I enjoyed. My third choice was the half-sized portion of potato gnocchi with a flavorful tomato sauce and strips of roasted butternut squash. It seemed more like a fall item than spring, but it worked.
I had a few bites of the colorful beet, grapefruit and basil side salad topped with a divine dollop of cashew cream that looked just like crème fraîche. The grapefruit segments were tart and complemented the earthy flavors of perfectly cooked red beets. Thin ribbons of fresh basil completed the dish that was simple but packed … More
For the past two months, Simply Sara's has settled into its new digs in a historic Colonial Revival building in Ortega, once home to The Village Store restaurant. After relocating from an unassuming Murray Hill strip center with no seating, the new spot offers seating for about 100 inside and outside.
Celebrating two years in business, Simply Sara's is family-owned-and-operated, and emphasizes simple Southern comfort food in a laid-back family-friendly atmosphere. Many neighborhood residents frequent the spot with kids in tow.
"We want to remember everyone's names," co-owner James Mangham said.
While you will find families, you won't find processed foods, anything dumped out of a can or anything that needs microwaving. Everything's created fresh, using Mangham's tried-and-true family recipes, like his great-aunt's barbecue sauce and his mother's pimento cheese spread. All of the salad dressings are made in-house. His wife, Sally, specializes in desserts like cookies, cakes and pies.
Intrigued by the eggplant "fries" with homemade ranch, I ordered a basket and received a heaping portion of thin, seasoned, cornmeal-dusted eggplant strips — I gobbled them in record time.
Pimento cheese sandwiches aren't an everyday menu item, so I had to have one. It was thick and flavorful, with noticeable shreds of sharp cheddar on toasted multigrain. I chose a side salad of chunks of cucumbers and tomatoes marinated in a slightly tangy yet sweet balsamic vinaigrette with honey.
The fried chicken sandwich with tomato, lettuce and mayonnaise featured a generously sized chicken breast, so juicy and tender, perched between a not-too-dense toasted Kaiser roll. For sides, we ordered crinkle-cut fries and knife-cut corn, though the fried corn on the cob and fresh pole beans were also tempting. (Note to self: Try on next visit.)
Dinner entrée offerings (complete with your choice of two side items) rotate each evening. The few bites I had of the barbecue … More

Lufkin comedian to perform on "Tonight Show" tonight
POSTED: Tuesday, May 17, 2011 - 11:52am
UPDATED: Tuesday, May 17, 2011 - 7:22pm
Lufkin, TX — A Lufkin stand-up comedian will perform for a nationwide audience tonight on the "Tonight Show" with Jay Leno.
Producers at the show discovered Tim Banfield, also known as Funny Guy Timmy on his Youtube account, and flew him out to Los Angeles on Monday for the performance, according to his friend Lance Moore.
Banfield's Youtube account includes videos of his multiple impersonations including former President George W. Bush, John Wayne, singer Aaron Neville and Jay Leno.
It's been a whirlwind week for the young performer. He said he received the call from the show on Thursday..
You can see more on the story at The Lufkin Daily News Website.
You can also see some of his work here on YouTube.
Comments News Comments
After reviewing the link posted to you tube and a couple other of his video's I can see what Jay Leno's producers liked so much about this young man. In Hollwood it's more important to be liberal than to have talent, this guy is awful !

The Electoral-Industrial Complex: Fortunes Made by Consultants on Campaign Spending
|By: David Dayen Monday November 12, 2012 10:50 am
It's been amusing to see the Republican base recognize that they've been had in this election, their money stolen by big-talking operatives. I think Rick Perlstein put it best in his story in The Baffler that conservatism has become an elaborate mail-order scam, directed at the target demographic for such scams, gullible seniors. When the [...]

Election Day Thoughts About the Debate We Never Had
|By: David Dayen Tuesday November 6, 2012 7:09 am
To those of us who follow policy on a daily basis rather than following POLITICS when peer pressure demands it of us, watching the spectacle of the last week before an election has become like the period where frat boys started coming to Nirvana concerts. It's the same, but also completely corrupted and sad. And those of us with that awareness know that the major result of this election will be maneuvering on fiscal policy, the content of which was virtually non-existent in the campaign.
Republicans Attempt "Vote for Us or We'll Tear the Mother Down" Closing Argument

Implicit in Mitt Romney's closing argument for the election is the idea that only he can stop House Republicans from destroying the economy: "Unless we change course, we may well be looking at another recession," Romney told a crowd in West Allis, Wisconsin. Romney said that Obama "promised to be a post-partisan president, but he [...]

Mitt Romney's latest play for Ohio – which remains the touchstone of the entire election, desperate plays for Minnesota and Pennsylvania aside – apparently involves straight-up lying about the intentions of Chrysler to "build Jeeps in China," to the extent that Jeep factory employees are calling their managers wondering if they still have a job.

Emergency Management Makes the Case for Government
|By: David Dayen Tuesday October 30, 2012 9:15 am
Whatever the failings of political leadership on both sides of the aisle, there's still a residual belief in the validity of government on the Democratic side that simply does not exist on the Republican side. In times like this, where the effects of FIRE sector lobbying doesn't come into play, you see that difference in the proper role of government shine through. In order for this to become definitive, however, all government programs have to show the same diligence and dedication. One program like HAMP can wipe out years of proper actions in organizations like FEMA.

Just as a reminder of how captured our government has become, President Obama has embarrassingly floated the prospect of a Secretary of Business for his second term. First of all, we already have a Secretary of Commerce, which is pretty much an irrelevant federal agency. So much so, in fact, that the President has proposed [...]

About the Designer
Sandy Chilewich
Sandy Chilewich is the founder and creative director of Chilewich / Sultan LLC in the United States. Chilewich has reinterpreted underutilized and overlooked manufacturing practices, producing designs marked by ingenuity and elegance for the last three decades with two distinct businesses. In 1978, Chilewich co-founded the hosiery company HUE with Kathy Moska; by 1997 the company was credited with revolutionizing the leg wear market with its innovations in design, packaging and merchandising. In years after the sale of the still-thriving HUE, Chilewich continued to explore her fascination with materials and textiles. In 1997, she introduced the highly successful Ray Bowl, which was acclaimed with utility patents and numerous awards. In a quest for other fabrics to incorporate into the Ray Bowl, she stumbled upon woven vinyl and fell in love with what she believed was a completely underutilized textile. Hence the launch, in 2000, of Chilewich's current distinctive product line of vinyl textiles. Chilewich went on to design and manufacture a number of successful applications for her growing collection of textiles. Her tablemats and floor mats can be seen in homes and better restaurants around the world. Chilewich bags, totes and cosmetic bags are modern and functional, perfect for travel and everyday use. In 2001 Chilewich, together with her architect husband, Joe Sultan, launched their first product for contract use. The two have changed the firm's corporate name to Chilewich / Sultan LLC to reflect their emergent business partnership. The award-winning Chilewich / Sultan LLC products are sold around the world.
About the ManufacturerUsing both traditional and modern manufacturing techniques, Sandy Chilewich's use of yarn fuses style and sophistication to create innovative textiles and original designs for modern use. Since 1997, Sandy has worked from her New York based studio applying her interest in color and experimentation with fibers to create the company's signature vinyl textiles. The durability of the yarn, its tremendous design versatility and the fact that it is stain resistant and truly washable continues to inspire her. Plynyl, the commercial grade wall-to-wall and tile application, was developed by Sandy's architect husband, Joe Sultan. They are now partners, with a corporate name change to Chilewich Sultan, and manage all aspects of the business together.

Great indoor/outdoor mats!
Jack from Orange, CA– Verified Buyer
These mats are wonderful!! We first saw them in a luxury home furnishings store in Palm Springs, CA. We've wanted to buy these for all our sliding glass doors, but they were always a little pricey. Especially since we have 6 sliding glass doors in our house!
Everyone loves it!
Christine from Honolulu, HI– Verified Buyer
We live in Hawaii so having this outside our door is really beneficial: it gets rained on a lot and takes sand off bare feet pretty well. My 8-yr old tenderfoot complained about it being pokey, but she got used to it. I have the multi-color mini stripe, which everyone loves when they see it, and the birch, which is a really nice blend of cool and warm grays - PERFECT blend with our bland house exterior. The mushroom color is very... brown and, well... mushroomy.
Extremely chic mat
Meryl from Tarzana, CA– Verified Buyer
I own a Mid-Century Modern house and wanted a mat for my kitchen. This is expensive but really worth it. It looks "current" and "modern." It also washes up really well if anything spills, unlike a normal mat / runner.
Perfect mat
Zojo from San Francisco, CA– Verified Buyer
I have had several Chilewich mats over the years and they last forever and are so well made. They have a nice clean modern aesthetic that fits any space.
Nurse mom and wife
Jen from Wayne, PA– Verified Buyer
Typical quality chilewhich product. Extremely versatile can be used indoors or outdoors we have one we use outdoors however this is used in our newly finished bathroom and it looks great

Judy from Venice, CA– Verified Buyer

beautiful in froont of door
Shirley from Pahrump, NV– Verified Buyer
Functional, durable, nice looking, excellent design, has the look and feel of quality.
Chilewich is a modern classic
Michele from Harrisburg, PA– Verified Buyer
Can't say enough about these mats and what a bright funky way to liven up your floors.
Fantastic Mat!
Kristin from Los Angeles, CA– Verified Buyer
Very durable mat! Love the colors and pattern, look great!

Alain (Japanese: アラン Alain) is the main protagonist of the side story Mega Evolution series. Alain is a Pokémon Trainer seeking to defeat all Mega Evolved Pokémon using his Mega Charizard X.
In the past he was Professor Sycamore's assistant, and it was Sycamore who initially inspired him to begin seeking Mega Stones in order to solve the mysteries of Mega Evolution. At this time Alain already owned a Charmander. Some time after leaving Professor Sycamore's laboratory, Charmander evolved. After reporting to Professor Sycamore, he came to a nearby ruin in search of Ampharosite, but discovered that the raw Mega Stone had been taken by Lysandre. Alain battled Lysandre for ownership of the stone, but his Charmeleon was soundly defeated by Lysandre's Pyroar.
Alain was then invited to Lysandre Labs, where Lysandre revealed his intention to harness the energy Pokémon produce when they Mega Evolve for peaceful purposes. He also claimed that if Professor Sycamore were to publish the secrets of Mega Evolution, mankind would find a way to use those secrets to nefarious ends, and said he would not allow the Professor's name to be tarnished. Asking if Alain would assist him, Lysandre revealed a metal attaché case with a Mega Ring and Charizardite X. Believing he could protect the Professor this way, Alain accepted Lysandre's proposal.
Sometime later, after Charmeleon evolved into a Charizard, Alain battled a Trainer named Astrid, and defeated her Mega Absol. The battle was secretly watched by Mairin, a beginning Trainer who was sent out on a journey by Professor Sycamore. Mairin was so impressed with his strength that she began following him. From Mairin, Alain learned of a Trainer who leaped off of Prism Tower to save a Pokémon. Next, Alain received a call on his Holo Caster from a mysterious person (later revealed to be Lysandre), who directed him to a location with ruins to retrieve a Mega Stone. After getting the Mega Stone, Alain was confronted by a Trainer named Remo who was also looking for the Mega Stone. Remo challenged him with a Mega Garchomp. Alain easily won the battle, and kept the Mega Stone.
Afterwards he helped Mairin capture a Flabébé. He then traveled with her to a restaurant where Elite Four member Siebold was working as a chef and challenged him to a battle, seemingly unaware that at the same time his Charizard's energy levels were being monitored by Lysandre. Charizard put up a good fight against Siebold's Blastoise, but when Blastoise Mega Evolved, it overwhelmed Charizard using a Mega Launcher-boosted Dragon Pulse. Accepting his defeat, Alain continued his journey to battle more Mega Evolved Pokémon and complete more assignments from the Lysandre, now with Mairin as a traveling partner.
He traveled to Hoenn with Mairin in Mega Evolution Special II, where he met Steven. Noticing each other's Key Stones, the two Trainers recognized each other as Trainers with Mega Pokémon. Accepting Alain's challenge, Steven and his Steven's Shiny Mega Metagross fought a fierce battle with Charizard before the battle was interrupted by Lysandre.
Deciding to cooperate with the Hoenn Champion, Alain and company traveled to their destination, a small temple with two pillars in the center. When Alain and Steven held their Key Stones to the monument, a staircase of light appeared to lead them further within the ancient ruin. There, they discovered a similar mechanism that summoned a glowing megalith from underneath the ruin. After Lysandre and his research team began analyzing the giant stone, a Rayquaza appeared from the sky, Mega Evolved into Mega Rayquaza, and started wreaking havoc on the surrounding area. Alain, Steven, and their Mega Pokémon partners tried to fend off the Legendary Pokémon, but were overwhelmed. As Rayquaza continued to destroy the megalith, its Draco Meteors landed near Mairin, sending her and Chespie flying. Alain dove to save her, but in the process, the two are buried in debris. Mairin is safe, but Alain injures his shoulder. Despite Mairin and Lysandre's concern, Alain insists he's fine, and proceeds to Rustboro City on Lysandre's orders as he believes the megalith can be recovered, secretly he told Alain to keep a watch on Steven Stone, as he possessed great knowledge on Mega Evolution.
He reappeared in SS032.
Alain made a cameo appearance in Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction. He will make his first appearance in the main series during a flashback in XY068.
Alain is shown to usually be focused on his goals, yet often exhibits aloof behavior and can wander off in thought. He at first seems to push others away from him, but he helped Mairin capture Flabébé with hints on strategy. He does, however, have a close bond with his Charizard, and has become accustomed to Mairin's companionship as shown in Mega Evolution Special II.
During his time working at Professor Sycamore's lab, Alain was much more cheerful than he is in the present. While he has distanced himself from Professor Sycamore, it is clear he is still concerned about him.
This listing is of Alain's known Pokémon in the anime:
| Charizard is Alain's only known Pokémon, which he has owned since it was a Charmander, when Alain was still one of Professor Sycamore's assistants. Thanks to Alain's Mega Ring and its Charizardite X, it can Mega Evolve into Mega Charizard X.
Charizard battled Astrid and her Mega Absol. As Mega Charizard X it managed to defeat Mega Absol with Blast Burn after a hard fight. It later battled Remo and his Mega Garchomp, but this also proved to be no match for Mega Charizard X. When Alain later battled Siebold of the Kalos Elite Four however, Mega Charizard X was overwhelmed by Siebold's Mega Blastoise and was defeated.
Charizard was called upon in Mega Evolution Special II to battle Steven's Shiny Mega Metagross. While Charizard was able to hold its own against the Champion's Pokémon, the battle was interrupted by Lysandre. It later cooperated with Metagross to battle Mega Rayquaza, but it was no match for the Legendary Pokémon.
It reappeared in SS032, when it was sent out to stop the rampage of Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre. It battled Primal Groudon, but was defeated by it and seriously injured. Alain was forced to return it before its flame could die out. It was later seen battling a Mega Tyranitar for training.
Charizard's known moves are Flamethrower, Steel Wing, Dragon Claw, and Blast Burn.

By Walid Phares
As reports are confirming the elimination of Pakistan Taliban leader Baitullah Mehsud, including Pakistani sources to al-Jazeera, a growing debate is widening in the international media about the "value" of that event.
Some analyses are using terms such as "turning point," while others are describing it as "lethal hit against Pakistan's Taliban." Evidently, authorities in Pakistan and the United States are logically rejoicing for the fact that a tough foe is gone. Intelligence estimates will soon tell how important what that successful drone and what would the field consequences be in the next weeks, months, and maybe a year or two.
But it is important that the expert community help the public and decision makers in making a fair and accurate assessment of the event by understanding of the value of the tactics employed on Pakistan's front with the Taliban. But no excesses should be projected in overestimating the impact on the "war." As the discussion is ongoing in the media and inside government circles, here are eight points to consider:
However, on the other hand:

I'm under the assumption that Dante ate Gluttony. LOL, It was either eat or be eaten, so she clapped her hands and turned Gluttony into a salisbury steak, whereupon she ate him quickly and jumped through the hole in the elevator for no apparently reason.
In short for everything you have wondered until now, I honestly think our answer will come in the movie. And since it's very evident that Gluttony does NOT show up in the movie, I'm under the grand assumption that he is, indeed, very much dead.

Wild grapes growing in my backyard, are they edible?
Hi All,
I would be super happy to know if I can/should eat these wild grapes growing wildly in my backyard. I don't know if someone else planted before I moved in or not, but it's a very aggressive plant. In fact, before I moved in, the landlord had thought he had destroyed it all, but shoots from the tree took off at the onset of summer and the plant has reached from one side of the yard to the other in the course of a few months. The grapes start green and have just recently started turning dark purple in the last few weeks. When I open the grapes, they smell like grape juice and I really want to eat them, but am afraid they might be poisonous. Your help identifying is greatly appreciated!
Image link:
Looks like wild grapes to me. Just so you know, if you check edible wild plant and forager info, the poisonous wild grape look alike is Canadian Moonseed, Menispermum canadense. That is the plant you need to make sure it isn't.
Yes, I agree not moonseed, looks like wild grapes. But since we are talking about eating wild plants, I just wanted to mention the look alike so the OP and anyone reading this post (and we both know there are plenty of those!) would know that not everything that looks like a wild grape might be a wild grape.
I personally have never seen moonseed. Grapes, on the other hand... I live in a part of the US known for grapes and wine. Wild grapes grow every place. They are a common "weed" for me to deal with in gardens. Old vines in forests here get as thick as young tree trunks - you could swing on the vines like Tarzan! I would think nothing of using anything that looked like wild grapes. But I'm sure not everyone has the same situation, hence the word of caution. :)
Those are wild grapes. I ate many pounds of those as a kid, right off the vine, after climbing halfway up the tree they were on. Never liked the skins much, so I would crack the skin with my teeth, and then suck out the greenish insides. And the spit out the seeds.
The grapevines themselves may be a menace, but the fruit is edible. The flavor doesn't compare to modern varieties. But they won't hurt you.

Staff was very friendly. Very clean but online pics make it look alot nicer/newer than it really is. Showed pictures of outside and inside pool but only had inside pool functioning.

Very nice staff. Hotel was very clean, including the pool area. Was able
to get 20% off the already low price of the room by going to bloomington-

Ate here once before, totally forgettable experience. But today I can't even comment on the food because out of principle I will never come here again.

This is a great spot near the studios and just around the hill from the valley. Service is not rushed... and may feel slow for those who are used to quick meals. The ambience is great, so sit back and relax and enjoy the experience. The baked salmon with lemon sauce is fantastic and highly recommended. It's a bit hidden so watch for the sign, valet parking is the way to go as street parking is limited.Like this review?Yes|Flag Abuse
Believe it or not, this is actually a french restaurant highlighting food from southern france and the basque region of spain. I would probably say the food is 3.5 stars but i will round up since the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. looks can be deceiving as it looks to me like something of a dive bar from the outside.

The sangria here is great. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The ambiance is really cool. Very relaxed, but nice. The food was passable, but 2 of our dishes came with hair in it. Not acceptable for a highly rated restaurant. They were very nice and gave our table an extra dessert, but I would have rather enjoyed my ordered food minus the hair.Like this review?Yes|Flag AbuseProvided by Citysearch
I have been twice now, one on a weekend night and once on a weekday afternoon. The food is good, and recommendable, but not really anything special with so much else to choose from. I would go back again except that the service, both times, was TERRIBLE.

NASA Wants To Bring Back Hunks of Mars In Future Unmanned Mission 82

Bringing back material from Mars's moons may be an easier first step.
There is still risk of Martian microbes that Earth life has no immunity too. Sure, it's a very small chance, but one that has potentially apocalyptic consequences if it happens.
Perhaps the samples should be baked at an intermediate station.

Testing batches of solar panels in lot purchase - help please
If I should find a deal on Solar panels how must I go about testing them to ensure I have good value?
I've recently come into enough money to be independent of working for a living daily. It still means I have goals
and one of those goals is to purchase at value green energy products. Our economy offers many opportunities
but we also balance that against the natural progression of new products. That is perceived values may not be as
attractive when compared to the natural progression of technology.
I'm a materials scientist in chemistry, electronics, optics. But I lack some experience in mechanical assembly.
Let's begin with the basics. Are there any 'gotchas' with regard to the electrical characteristics of solar cell assemblies?
Most semiconductors work well if they work at all. Once in place they age less as time goes on. Solarization of the
glass and maybe the silicon could be the only problem I forsee. What else can go wrong that would cause financial
problems for a 5 KW system?
What comes next when I install a system:
I firmly believe that we lack initiative in using focussing mirrors to increase light energy to cells. I realize that 10x
the energy would destroy the cells. But 2x or 3x , or more with cooling, should be OK. Do you agree?
Why don't we see more auxillary focussing mirrors causing light to be put upon solar cells? The newest technologies
are doing it.
Solar balloon is key for doing this.
New Solar Balloon Creates 400 Times More Energy Than The Average ...
Why not standard roof mounted collectors and use the waste heat from cooling for home water heating?
Ok so the Q I had was about checking a lot of panels for quality. I can do it myself but need to know the things
that can go wrong.
I will share my time with you if you have any interest in solar, battery power, or optics. My degrees are in electronics,
optics, chemistry and lately sociology.

These should be illegal. If they were, I'd still take the chance and make them. S'more Bars... These taste about 10,000 times better than actual s'mores.
A fireside favorite becomes party-worthy with this gourmet s'mores bar. Artisinal chocolates, hand-crafted peppermint marshmallows and nutella are a nod to the classic combos while appealing to more sophisticated palates.
