28 year old man | Honolulu, HI, USA | Seeking women 18-28 within 40 miles
New to the area, new to Match.
I'm a country boy at heart, born and raised in Texas but I live here in Hawaii now. I'm very outgoing and I love meeting new people. I want to meet some awesome people to spend time with while in Hawaii and if something more happens, that'd be great too. I want to find someone I can spoil because I definitely have a romantic side. I like going out and having fun, so I want someone fun and quirky I can bring around my friends, but I also like having downtime at home watching movies, playing video games, whatever... so I'd love to find a girl that can have quiet nights too. I'm easy to get to know and have a good sense of humor. I'm loyal to my friends. I'm pretty close with my family. And I'm kinda at a place in life where I'm ready to settle down if I find the right girl. I'm just putting myself out there and seeing what the world has to offer me cause I know I got a lot to offer the world! hah.

Quiet, but head height is significant. By Jim on 12/27/2014Jim would recommend this product to a friendThis is a really nice quiet pump. Be sure to review the head height vs. flow chart carefully. This pump loses flow pretty rapidly compared to some others based on the height of your return.
Energy efficient, but not silent By Liz on 8/13/2014Liz would recommend this product to a friendThere's nothing "silent" about this pump, it emits a loud hum like all the others (though maybe quieter? I'd like to see decibel noise comparison readings on these products that claim to be quieter). I bought it for the energy efficiency/reduce heat in the aquarium. The flow adjust valve is easy to reach/turn. Provides ample flow for a 40 gallon aquarium with a 5' return from the sump.
Excellent pump By Corey on 12/28/2013Corey would recommend this product to a friendI ordered this pump about 3 months ago after some thorough research. This is an awesome pump for the price, very quiet! The included output adapter made it easy to connect 1" vinyl tubing. Overall, I'm very happy with this pump.

""My initial reaction to Through the Roots is that they're going to be the next big thing in the genre. They've got a pretty clean sound, it's really catchy reggae with a rock base," Carlsen said. "It's going to be a great show.""
"We don't really know why or what we have done wrong or right, but all I can say is that we are constantly working hard to make this band succeed to the fullest, working hard on writing quality music that the world can enjoy, meeting tons of awesome people along the way who believe in us and have helped us live our dreams. Big shout out to our manager Grant who is a HUGE part of our success and putting us where we need to be. We are on the rise because Through the Roots is here to stay and will not stop doing what we love - playing music!"
"This new surf-rock reggae hybrid has proven to fit in quite nicely in Southern California, where island beats and positive vibes are always welcome."
"Surprise guests Evan Hawkins from Through the Roots threw down some rhymes during the song "Vampire". RollinSD will be sitting down for an exclusive interview with Through the Roots before they open for SOJA at House of Blues on March 5th, 2011."

For the love of snacks, please be able to think for yourself. If I had to pick an animal to describe myself...definitely a Giraffe.
And...I'm back. Going to give this online thing another chance. My friends would say there is never a dull moment with me. I always have story that will make you laugh or smile. I do laugh when people trip. Some times it's a 'Wow...that sucks...' and other times it's a '*guffaw* Oh my damn! *running in the opposite direction cracking up*' I'm looking for someone who works hard and enjoys tomfoolery. Oh and I'm well versed in sarcasm...maybe even to the point of it being my 2nd language. If you don't understand sarcasm or your feelings get hurt easily...you may not want to get in the sandbox with me. Someone who enjoys going to the beach and/or hiking. I love being outside. Being surrounded by nature is church. Getting me to try new things is awesome as well. Speaking of which...I went to my 2nd Giants' game, in over 20yrs, this year. What a difference it makes to go as an adult. "So much space for activities!!" *Will Farrell voice* I hang out with different circles of people, so it would be helpful to be an individual who can transition with ease between different settings, but still remain themselves. I love to eat. Don't let the slender frame fool you. Mexican, Japanese, Italian, Indian, Seafood, etc. I am a Pescatarian(Not Episcopalian, as some people keep thinking I'm stating). Anything else? Just ask.

Zachary Taylor: Terrific Cotton Bandanna. While "General Taylor" is the central figure on this 22" x 25" bandanna, his victories are extolled in each of the four corners. They depict the Battle of Palo Alto, the Battle of Buena Vista, the Storming of the Heights of Monterey, and the Battle of Estacado de la Palma and the Capture of Gen. La Reya. The colors are bright and bold. There are three minor tears in the outer border and a vertical line of discoloration in the middle. Given the rarity and graphics, these can easily be overlooked. It is in really great shape overall. This is the Hake book plate specimen.

Gear Review
Awesome hiking/approach shoes
Bought these for a trip up to mount Whitney via the north fork trail. ( mountaineers route). I wore them around the house for a few days. Super comfy, but get them outside on a rough trail, or 3-4th class terrain and they excel. They are very tough and stable. The size was true and fit how I expected. I'm considering buying another pair before they are discontinued, or changed in any way! The only thing I would warn people about, is that the toe sole area is climbing rubber, which does not grip when it's wet. If you are walking across wet rocks, use the vibram sole area..not the toe.

Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez has accepted a longstanding challenge to debate her main challenger, Assemblyman Van Tran, ending a will-she-or-won't-she plot line that Tran had tried to weave into the campaign.
The debate will air in two 30-minute segments next week on public television station KOCE. The host of the station's Real Orange news program, Ed Arnold, will moderate the debate, which will be filmed on Oct. 13 and will not be open to the public.
Tran, a Republican, challenged Sanchez, D-Santa Ana, nearly two months ago to a series of debates and kept up the political pressure when she didn't respond. At one point, he had a supporter dress as a duck to ridicule Sanchez for "ducking" debates.
"I look forward to having a spirited discussion about the important issues facing our community – our local residents deserve nothing less," Sanchez said in a prepared statement. "I'm more than ready to discuss my fight to create good-paying jobs, strengthen the middle class, and revitalize California's economy."
Tran's campaign put out its own statement: "We are happy to see Loretta Sanchez find time to respond to a 57-day-old debate request. We look forward to a spirited debate on Sanchez's ineffective tenure in Congress. ..."
For now, the KOCE debate is the only one on the schedule before Election Day on Nov. 2. The first segment will air on KOCE at 6:30 p.m. on Oct. 13; the second segment will air at the same time on Oct. 14.
A third candidate – Independent Cecilia Iglesias – is also in the race to represent central Orange County's 47th District, which includes Santa Ana and Garden Grove and parts of Anaheim and Fullerton. Her campaign said Tuesday that she had not yet been invited to participate in the KOCE debate.

Any improvement beyond that is personal experience through playing, but as far as game mechanics are involved, I've reached the best I can be.
sPvP has zero progression curve, you can make your ideal avatar with the best possible gear right away. Why does it matter that the other aspects of the gameplay have a much much sorter progression curve than competting mmorpgs?
Btw, build saver would need to account for the cost to change specs. Also the game badly needs a raid interface for WvW and some proper squad managing tools.

Now that is understood (hasn't this always been understood?) let's move on. Z3ro1 said the moment he's not having fun he unistalls. He's speaking in a macro sense. Boring games get unistalled. I'm speaking of a day to day thing, where you like the game. Everything gets boring at some point, or falls in the fun scale at some point in time. This doesn't mean you don't like the game. This just means you don't want to play right now for whatever reason. Having something to strive for (which is fun to a lot of people) ties you over until the fun kicks in again.
GW2 all though it my be fun for a period of time, during those down times there is nothing tie a lot of people over. They log out bored for whatever reason, but then have no reason to log back in to get the fun going again. It leaves GW2 in a strange place where the game can be fun here and there, but after you have ran your 15th DE, captured you 10th keep, or played you 15th spvp match your left asking yourself "what for?" having something to strive for answers that question.
There is no answer for this question in GW2.

People have to understand that games are supposed to be fun. If it is not fun, why would I play it? I think many peopl on this board play too much and invest too much into these games.
GW2 is trying to bring back fun into the game. I am not going to comment on eSport part of GW2 - I think it is silly really.

Arena Net was never about "progression" per se. It was about doing fun stuff quickly, light leveling, and collecting cosmetic gear or special skills.

I haven't played FPS games in years, but I prefer that kind of combat over MMO combat. And so if you take out the progression from an MMO, you've taken out the biggest reason why I enjoy them so much.

First off NO. I dont feel this way. GW2 really is about fun and as such it is more suited to a more medium to casual type of player of which there has been very few MMO's dedicated to. In normal MMO's, if you dont play 14 hours a day and are in the bestest guilds, you never see content or are able to do the hardest progression.
GW2 is more like original MMO's in that the first rule of a persistent online world is to have fun. SOme of us dont need progression.

You should also be able to show off your better looking PVP gear in the world. I personally don't care about personal rankings in PVP, ala Arena rankings, but I'm sure hardcore PVPers do.

Because they find it fun.
Not everyone sticks with the game once they hit that point, because yeah theres nothing left to gain. But many stick with games long after hitting "end game" simply because they enjoy the game and find it fun. If not, lots of still running games would have been completely shut down years ago.

We get it, the game isnt to your liking so pelase kindly go away, your posts offer nothing constructive and when you do try to say something constructive it comes off wrong, like this post. You cant generalize for everyone because obviously if your post was correct (the green portion I underlined above) it would be different, but since GW2 is still selling very well, has queues still for WvW and is still highly popular in the general population then it makes no sense to generalize like that.

as you can see there is a very big gap in what players enjoy it seems but also in what people consider progression.. I consider the traits, runes, sigil, and utility skill system a great form of progression for your character as it adds a ton of flexability in how you play your character.. I much prefer this to many other MMOs where you basically are playing the exact same way just hitting harder or having a couple more abilities but still basically playing the exact same way all the way through. GW1 was about skill builds and mixing and matching skills to make builds.. GW2 uses a similar system alhough it limits the skills overall it still provides the flexability to completely change your gameplay with said class depending on how you set up the class.. for me this is much more fun and interesting when leveling than just getting a more powerful version of basically the same exact skill to cap.

The problem with censorship is ********
As MMO gamers I understand the need to always be progressing to something more than a title. PvP gamers outside the MMO genre don't really need much motivation to do some pvp. Look at FPS games, LoL, SC2 just to name a few. There is some progression, but its like the one in GW2 that doesn't really give you much more than a title or some records to keep track of. The point being they don't need this type of motivation, heck they don't need for it to be "meaningful" like you see folks in these forums talk about every other week. Its a matter of entertainment by getting better at the game and just enjoying the fact that you are fighting against humans not AI.

See the game is fun for you like that, which is one and only one aspect of that sort of progression. Myself, my favorite thing about GW2 is roaming around the zones doing Dynamic Events and jsut having a ball. Like tonight I spent the better portion of the nite in Lorner's Pass. A zone I had completed before on the way to level 80 but I go back and first off I am put at a level to where I can be semi challenged and secondly I came across new events I missed. Its like that for every zone. When I finished it, it might be another month before I go back there and I am certain I will run across new events and content I missed the first 2 times. To me this is the best part of GW2. I have over 200K Karma, 176 Trait Points, 24 gold and full exotic gear. I am not workign toward anything as far as gear is concerened, I already have the best of the best but yet I am having just as much today as I did way back in BWE1. To me that is the mark of an amazing game and soemthing no MMO's have done since Asherons Call.

Doing the same zone in most MMOs is basically the same exact thing every single time just in how the questing is setup it just doesn't change.. But in this I can see how people who do not enjoy the zones or the DE system they will not see much longevity in this game at least in PVE. But for people who actually enjoy exploring each zone especially with multiple characters you will get a ton of mileage in the game.. i haven't even seen half the zones in this game and have over 250 hours /age

The difference is that there is no verticle progression in GW2 or at best limited by design, number one. Number two, like you said the verticle progression takes much longer in WoW, atleast for the higher levels, that means something to strive for longer. For those that don't want to reach, they don't have too. For those who do though, it's there.
I don't like roller coasters. I'll never ride those 300ft 150 mph coasters. They are there for people who do though. What's a theme park with all little rides? In other games there are different more intense rides. You even get gear when you get off.
edit - I agree with everything you said, I just took all this space answering you question :)

progression i take it you mean make it easier for you
cause if they give you better armor or weapons then either the game becomes easier or they need to add harder mobs
the concept of giving better players better armor or weapons is a bit crazy im all for giving them better armour and weapons in looks alone but why not give them worse stats to level the playing field maybe even incorpreate a handicap system which will affect the esports
why should some super amazing dude at pvp be given better armor and weapons are they the one's who should acctualy get the worse armour and weapons so they can show off there skills
now that kinda progression im all for and you would really see who is top pvper and not who was lucky with drops or had a bigger wallet than you

I've been reading the Aubrey/Maturin Series by Patrick O'Brian so nautical metaphors are making a lot of sense. In the second of twenty one novels 'Post Captain' Jack Aubrey is posted into the HMS Polychrest (Also known as the "Carpenter's Mistake") a poorly designed and poorly built ship. In the HMS Polychrest I see an apt match for the New York Mets, which probably doesn't make the bibliophiles too happy. In the book, aside from the ship being designed to fire Congreve rockets, the boat was made by a disreputable shipyard who did not properly bolt the ship together. Should the ship get into any real fighting… it would simply shake itself apart. Also, the slow sailing vessel was armed with very heavy carronades which could do serious damage to an enemy vessel but the slow sailing Polychrest could never get close enough to use them. Perhaps we could see the reality of the Mets lack of depth or that the offense wasn't strong enough to take advantage of the Met's fine starting pi

"Contrary to what was believed, our work shows that even in the human genome, codons are positioned to minimize errors," says Wilke, assistant professor of integrative biology at Texas. "Just like a mistake on your taxes is more costly than a mistake on your grocery list -- so you concentrate more on your taxes -- cells seem to concentrate on preventing mistakes that might result in costly misfolded proteins."
Drummond and Wilke analyzed humans, mice, fruit flies, worms, yeast and E. coli bacteria and discovered that all of these organisms have evolved ways to prevent the production of costly aberrant proteins.
"Finding such sweeping effects from a single, simple cost has the potential to reshape the way evolution is studied at the molecular level," Drummond says. "While much work has focused on how evolution makes creatures different, our work emphasizes fundamental ways in which all life is the same."
While evolutionary studies are often retrospective, Drummond and Wilke also developed a molecular-level evolutionary simulation, allowing them to track the evolution of genomes encoding many simple proteins over millions of generations. In some simulations, they added evolutionary costs for misfolded proteins, while in others this cost was not factored in. They found that genomes evolving with misfolding costs developed all the genome-wide patterns seen in real organisms, while those evolving without costs did not.
The work could have long-term implications for our understanding of neurodegenerative diseases. Misfolded proteins are known to accumulate in neurons and are central players in fatal disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, better known as Lou Gehrig's disease. Drummond and Wilke suggest that mistranslation may contribute to long-studied forms of ALS and other similar diseases.
Wilke says the current study may lead to better ways to detect genes

David's Dish: Foraging and Edible PlantsSubmitted by Fun at Foster on January 22, 2015 - 2:43pm
The "Dish" delves into a new area of study in the food world: foraging (new to me, at least). No, I don't mean dumpster diving. I mean foraging for wild food edibles. I'll admit as a child I was known to chomp on a bit of sour grass, but didn't venture much further into the wild edible kingdom.
To instruct me in this new interest of mine I looked at a terrific new book from our collection, Foraging California: Finding, Identifying, and Preparing Edible Wild Foods in California, by Christopher Nyerges. The book is an informative guide to accessing our wonderful wild food bounty here in California. The photographs are very clear and the descriptions for the identification of the edible plants are concise. Also, there are some very interesting recipes for your foraged morsels. The Stinging Nettles Hot Sauce recipe caught my attention; it seemed edgy. Careful, though: latex gloves are recommended for this recipe.
|Page 178 became of special interest to me, for upon this page was one of my favorite plants, Nasturtium, and it happens to be edible. The book suggested it could be used in a "survival garden" and that the plant can be left to reseed year after year, providing an endless supply of edible plants. This sounded like a wonderful idea. I did feel slightly guilty taking the wild out of the Nasturtium, but I suppose the wildness is taken out of most everything—the "Dish" being an exception to that rule of course! I found some Nasturtium seeds at the local market, planted them, and will prepare a delicious meal with them this spring.
In addition to Foraging California I'd also recommend Hen of the Woods & Other Wild Foods and Medicines, by "Wildman" Steve Brill. It is an outstanding audiobook available through Hoopla Digital, which you can access from our eLibrary.
Check out the book at Foster Library, or put it on hold—we will send it to you. If there are any cookbooks in Foster Library's collection that you would like me to try out, please leave the title on our Facebook page and I'll get cooking!

Novelties: "The Paying Guests," by Sarah WatersSubmitted by Fun at Foster on January 16, 2015 - 10:16am
For writers of fiction inspiration can come from anywhere, but we've seen in past editions of Novelties that history itself is ripe with settings to be revisited, events to be reinterpreted, and characters to be reimagined. What one often finds is that our predecessors dealt with many of the same issues that confront us today, sometimes in a strikingly similar context. A talented author of historical fiction allows us to see how society handled questions that we still struggle with, giving us insight not only into how we have changed but how we have stayed the same.
|Sarah Waters' 2014 novel The Paying Guests tells the story of Frances Wray, who shares a large London home with her mother. The two are isolated and under the heavy strain of debt, having lost Frances' brothers to World War I and her father shortly after. As a result of these hardships the two find themselves in the awkward position of needing to seek lodgers to cover their expenses, a scenario which offers Waters the chance to deconstruct the evolving social climate of 1920s England. We are shown the ways in which the country changed during the war, causing a shift in gender dynamics that many of the men returning from combat resented. The titular guests are Lilian Barber and her husband Leonard, and their presence is both disruptive and liberating for Frances, who soon develops a relationship with Lilian that is intensely passionate and ultimately forces the two onto a dangerous path. A terrible event causes the novel to shift into a suspenseful psychological study, revealing more and more about Waters' complex characters as circumstances arise that test their loyalties to their principles and each other. Even considering the high bar set by her early novels, The Paying Guests has been seen as an impressive addition to Waters' body of work.
|We leave London behind and head to Paris for our next title, Lovers at the Chameleon Club, Paris 1932 (2014), by Francine Prose. Advancing through history to cover the period from the 1920s to World War II, this novel follows Louisianne ("Lou") Villars through her journey from coat check girl at the Chameleon Club to famous racecar driver and eventual Nazi collaborator. Villars, a stylish, athletic, cross-dressing young woman (whose character is based on real-life figure Violette Morris) finds the club's atmosphere comforting, as it is a haven for other members of Parisian society who, like her, don't fit into the narrowly-defined scope of normalcy. The novel is told from several points of view, giving Prose a chance to explore the unreliability of various narrators who are all seeing Villars' story gradually unfold. The result is a bleak but compelling character study in which multiple perspectives meld together to form a composite picture of a complex woman facing difficult questions about her own identity and the nature of good and evil. Inspired by an actual photograph of Morris (Brassaï's Lesbian Couple at Le Monocle), Lovers at the Chameleon Club, Paris 1932 draws inspiration from her life story as well as those of her peers.
|Finally, we return to England for Emma Donoghue's Life Mask (2004), another title that delivers a fictionalized account of the lives of real historical figures. Set in London during the late 18th century, Life Mask likewise tackles the subject of class while also exploring themes of homosexuality. Donoghue's main characters are Lord Derby, a fabulously wealthy but rather homely member of the House of Lords; Eliza Farren, a young actress pursued by Derby whom he introduces to high-society; and Anne Damer, a widow and sculptor whose budding friendship with Eliza is dogged by rumors that the two are lesbian lovers. Donoghue is credited with being a consummate world-builder whose attention to detail succeeds in capturing the essence of the period's social and political struggles. It is this world, in which the effects of the French Revolution are felt rocking traditional power structures, where Eliza comes into her own amidst relationships that must be navigated delicately and rumors that could derail her career. The characters are expanded upon greatly from their historical personalities, as is the plot surrounding the scandal that enveloped them, and while some readers found Donoghue's intricate use of detail and the novel's slow start cumbersome, many more regard it as a slow burn that is worth the payoff.
You can borrow The Paying Guests and Lovers at the Chameleon Club, Paris 1932 from E.P. Foster Library. Life Mask is also available through the Ventura County Library system and can be requested through our online catalog. If you can't find the title you're looking for on the shelf at your branch, call or go online to place a hold and have it sent over.

The hope of life in Christ's death
The memorable Passover (or the Feast of Unleavened Bread) was was some hours few hours before the arrest Of Jesus and eventual crucifixion on the Cross of Calvary. During the feast (also known as the Last Supper), Christ broke a bread into pieces after blessing it and shared it with his disciples and later shared a cup of wine after giving thanks to his Heavenly Father – both the bread and the wine respectively symbolising his body and blood that would be wasted on the cross on behalf of humanity in order to atone for the Adamic sin and its consequences of imperfection, suffering and death. Some hours later, Christ was betrayed with thirty silver pieces by one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot. He was sentenced to death under trumped-charges.
In any case, the hopes in Christ's sacrificial death cannot be underestimated. For one, through his priceless bloodshed on the Cross of Calvary, every true believer, by divine grace, has been made anew, spiritually and humanly wise. Certainly, this has buoyed hopes for true believers about everlasting life after this earthly sojourn that is replete with uncertainties, pains and sufferings.
As we commemorated the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ last week, there is no gainsaying that this Easter of divine grace is a clarion call to us to lead a life of spirituality, piety, chastity, humility, selfless service and self-abnegation. This is especially paramount in our modern society where narcissistic individualism, greed, hubris and self –aggrandisement and the attendant evils are on the ascendancy. Embodying these unsavoury developments is what could be termed "me-first syndrome", which is unfolding and threatening to tear apart the basic fabric of our society. On this note, think of the ravaging effects of greed driven acts of impropriety like corruption and mismanagement of public funds in our country today. Rather than emulating the exemplary life of honesty, accountability, altruism and self-sacrifice of Jesus, the interest of many of us today is aroused and propelled by selfishness, greed, avarice, hedonism and self-aggrandisement. Many people today have shunned the ennobling life of self-denial, which is comparable to bearing the cross of others, as exemplified in Christ's death. Rather, they have shown a predilection for acquiring material things for themselves like millions or billions of naira worth of mansions that look like the legendary Taj Mahal in India and state of the art cars whose costs can help lift millions of people out of poverty and misery. Disturbingly, some of those in desperate pursuit of material things in our midst are hell-bent on grabbing more forgetting that they would not take such acquisitions to the great beyond, because empty-handed we came into this world and in the same manner we are leaving it one day.
Today, the human system is at a crossroads. This is coupled with the high hopes about unfolding of Universalist dreams of globalisation and globalised economy. On the other side of the world situations are heartrending developments like ghastly intra and inter-state armed conflicts virulent ethnic nationalism, religious fundamentalism, threats of nuclear armament, upsurge of crime and violence (including trans-border crimes), terrorism, oppression and injustice.
However, as beneficiaries of Christ's death, Easter festivity should be a great opportunity for us to recourse to deeper spiritual rumination and self-introspection on our individual lifestyle in order to make it being in conformity with God's purpose. This should be done in earnest because an unexamined life is not worth living.
May the good Lord, through the inestimable value of the blood of Jesus help us cleanse and heal our deeply troubled land.

Berry Fresh Café just as delicious as the original
After the runaway success of his father Tim's Berry Fresh Café in St. Lucie West, Mitch Timoteo decided to try his hand recreating the gastronomic magic in Northern Palm Beach County.
His café may be new, but Timoteo has plenty of experience in the restaurant business.
In 1986, his father founded the once-popular, Jupiter-headquartered R.J. Gators chain.
"We built it to 30 restaurants all over the country," Mitch Timoteo said. But in 2007, R.J. Gators went bankrupt, a victim of the economic downturn.
Mitch bounced back, taking on a leadership role with Florida Atlantic University Dining Services, but Tim couldn't find work. In 2009, Tim decided to try the business again, opening Berry Fresh Café in St. Lucie West.
Just a few weeks ago, on December 14, Mitch decided to follow suit in Jupiter, partnering with his father to open a second Berry Fresh Café.
The 104-seat Jupiter outpost is just as delicious as the original, armed with the same friendly service and "Recipe for Success" that guides its sister to the north. Wherever possible, the restaurant uses locally grown ingredients.
Grits are made with heavy cream; oatmeal is made with milk; French toast is made with challah bread. Biscuits, muffins, cornbread, cobblers, and ice cream are made fresh each day.
Berry Fresh Café is known for its homemade hashes, fresh quiche, varieties of eggs Benedict, and other delectable dishes like the paper sack of blueberry fritters and the "OMG Shrimp-N-Grits."
But the eatery's menu is expansive, with new favorites to find with each return trip. Fresh salads, soups, "Berry Fresh burgers," paninis and other sandwiches have won rave reviews, as have the specialty coffee drinks and organic loose leaf hot teas brewed tableside.
The Bananas and Blueberries Foster French Toast, the favorite dish of both Timoteo and server Kathy Stone, is a particular hit at the café.
It's no wonder the restaurant runs a healthy catering business, in addition to handling its daily crowds.
Timoteo looks forward to welcoming more customers to Berry Fresh Café and giving back to Jupiter, his longtime home. "Part of our philosophy is to be part of the community," Timoteo said.
Berry Fresh Café, located at 3755 Military Trail, Suite B16, is open Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Friday through Sunday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. For more information, visit www.berryfreshcafe.biz, www.facebook.com/berryfreshcafejupiter, or call 561-401-5693.

Chef Philippe Delacourcelle knows his cassia bark from his cinnamon thanks to a long stint in Asia. He opened this lively bistro with its purple-gray walls and photos of jazz musicians to showcase his culinary style, rejuvenating archetypal French dishes with Asian and Mediterranean spices. His bargain prix-fixe menus (€13.90 at lunch, €30.50 at dinner) change constantly, but his trademark spiced suckling pig with crisp cabbage is always a winner, as is his rhubarb compote with gingered white-chocolate mousse. Ask for advice in selecting wine from a list that highlights small producers.

We had a pleasant dinner here with new acquaintances. My french not being the best I ordered rognon de veau. It was served in a delicious sauce with very tasty rice cakes, however it was kidney of veal and it brought me back to the dinners my mother made us eat called a "mixed grill"; kidney, liver, and bacon. I would recommend the restaurant for the quality of food, service, and atmosphere.

I don't where the last reviewer ate, but the food at Le Pre Verre was DELICIOUS! The place appears to be a popular spot for locals and is also tourist friendly, with menus in English and French. They offer a pre-fixe menu with a selection of creative entrees. On the two nights we ate there, we truly enjoyed everything. Particularly good was the cod with smoked mashed potatoes and the leg of lamb with polenta. They also have an extensive wine
list. I strongly recommend this restaurant for anyone who wishes to eat good, modern French food. This place is far far better than any corner bistro or brasserie. ENJOY!

This bistro used to be a real gem. Unfortunately, it has now been taken over by crude thugs. The kitchen used be simply amazing. Now, the only amazing thing is that anyone will put up with the sort of abuse this place seems eager to dish out. On my last visit, my food was burnt, they tried to pawn off TWO corked bottles of wine on me, and I was subjected to the kind of verbal abuse one might expect from Seinfeld's Soup Nazi. I wouldn't
eat at this place again if it were the last restaurant in Paris!
No Thanks
