Success of walk in Boston puts photographers in focus
Posted: September 19, 2012|
A NEW photography group could be formed in Boston following the success of the latest walk around the town organised by The Alchemy Project.
Twenty-one people took part in a photographic urban ramble around Boston last Saturday, which was led by social artist and photographer Katie Smith – and they enjoyed it so much Katie was asked if she could carry on and set up a regular meeting for them.
"The photo-walk went really well and I was overwhelmed by the number of enthusiastic photographers that turned up," said Katie.
"The universal language of photography certainly cut through the generations as our group ranged from children to OAPs and every age group in between. It also cut through cultures, with British, Russian and Polish walkers sharing their interest in image making.
"The group was very friendly, with some of our previous photo-walkers not only making a return visit but bringing along their friends. Many of the walkers who are local to Boston discovered footpaths which they didn't know existed."
Katie said there was a lot of enthusiasm for setting up a group which could meet regularly for photographic walks around the town.
"Many of the walkers are keen to share their favourite routes," she said. "I've already had an email from one gentleman who suggested that next time we could round off our walk with a visit to a cafe to get to know each other better, which is what The Alchemy Project is all about."
And a local mystery was unravelled thanks to some of the walkers.
"I'd always wondered how the Gassy Pad footpath got its name," said Katie. "Someone said it is because it runs alongside land which used to be the gas works, so that explains it."
Work is now under way to try to set up the new group. Details will be posted on The Alchemy Project website www.alchemyproject.eu or call JUST Lincolnshire on 01522 836161.
The walks are the latest in a series of events organised by The Alchemy Project, which has been set up to help break down the barriers between the different communities living in Boston.
The Alchemy Project is attempting to unravel the myths, misunderstandings and prejudices associated with the changes and challenges that Boston and the surrounding area face.
The project will initially run until March 2013 and is an initiative conceived by JUST Lincolnshire, the county's equality and human rights organisation. It is being co-ordinated by Lincoln-based arts consultants cultural solutions UK.
It is funded by the Community Development Foundation and other partners are Boston College, Boston Borough Council, South Lincolnshire Council for Voluntary Service, the Aegis Trust, Victim Support, Stop Hate UK and the Boston Community Safety Partnership.

Updated: 03/26/2013 2:08 PM KSTP.com By: Chris Egert
The Minnesota Department of Health estimates that diabetes rates in our state have nearly doubled the last 20 years. And, that there are hundreds of thousands of people who have the disease, and don't even know it.
Tuesday, March 26 is Alert Day, when the American Diabetes Association asks you to log on to your computer or call their 800-number, and see if you are at risk.
Often, a diabetes diagnosis comes 7 to 10 years after the onset of the disease.
The American Diabetes Association is asking you to take one minute to fill out a simple on-line screening survey to see if you are a risk.
"It's hard. It is really hard," says Becky Barnett.
The Twin Cities woman has lived with the disease for 25 years.
Barnett suffers from type 1 diabetes, and estimates she's probably pricked her finger and tested her blood around 60-thousand times in her life so far.
But Barnett remains positive, "It was the hand you were dealt, and you can choose to be upset and depressed about it, but I try to be optimistic about it."
The MDH estimates that around 290,000 Minnesotans like Barnett have been diagnosed with diabetes. But that 80-thousand have it, and don't know it, mainly because symptoms of type 2 diabetes aren't so obvious.
MDH estimates 1.4 million Minnesotans have pre-diabetes and aren't aware of it.
Risk factors include: being overweight, being older, for women, having had gestational diabetes during pregnancy, people of color and American Indians also have a higher risk.
Chris Schaefer with American Diabetes Association Minnesota Area points out, "Complications of diabetes are blindness, heart disease and stroke, kidney disease, nerve disease, and amputations."
As to why diabetes rates in Minnesota have nearly doubled in the last 20 years.
The Department of Health says that's mainly due to obesity, and an aging population.

It isn't often anymore in the auto industry that there is an opening for a new marketing campaign big enough to drive a Ram 3500 through, four-wheels-across and all. But the accruing major blows to the safety reputation and corporate integrity of the two biggest players may have created new marketing possibilities that competitors can't resist.
So here's a prediction: It won't be long before an auto brand or two comes out with ads, maybe on TV or just in print and online, that play up their safety bona fides.
It's also probably a good idea to anticipate a new advertising campaign by GM sometime soon offering a mea culpa on safety and corporate integrity, a vow to do better — or both.
When it comes to competitors' efforts to capitalize, their messages may be new or recycled. But either way, this opening seems to be a no-brainer in a U.S. car market where it has gotten difficult for brands to differentiate from one another based on once-effective criteria such as fuel efficiency and manufacturing quality.
Maybe it'll be Hyundai that steps up. Its spot during the Super Bowl in February used the slapstick treatment to drive home the point that its 2015 Genesis features an automatic emergency-braking system that can be a lifesaver.
Or Honda. The icon of safety scored a hit with its own Big Game ad that personified the safety of its cars in the figure of tough guy Bruce Willis in a "hugfest" approach. And while Honda has launched a couple of its own safety recalls lately, they were careful and preemptive rather than uncaring and even duplicitous, which is what car buyers may be coming to think of both GM and Toyota.
Perhaps a new campaign will come out of nowhere from Volvo. While showing signs of revival with new models and financial stability, it's going to take some doing from the now-Chinese-owned, Swedish-made brand to reclaim a place in the hearts of American consumers. What better way to attempt this feat than a marketing campaign highlighting the brand's iconic attribute, crash safety, at a time when car buyers are on heightened alert over the issue?
It's even possible that GM will pull a bit of marketing jujitsu with its own safety woes and actually take the opportunity to emphasize a positive safety story with its vehicles where it can.
For example, the Chevrolet Spark was the only tiny-car model to get an overall acceptable rating in a recent test by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety of several entrants in the segment. Chevrolet CMO Tim Mahoney told me a few weeks ago he planned to highlight the Spark's success in that regard but would only be doing so through social media and maybe print.
"Spark is in a very small segment compared with Cruze or Malibu, so we won't give it heavy above-the-line [advertising] weight," he said. "We'll do more through social. Our intention there wouldn't be to have big TV commercials but definitely to deliver that information through other media."
It's now possible that GM, looking for something good to say about the integrity of its cars (and its culture), might choose to highlight Spark's showing just a bit more now.

DALLAS (AP) - The State Fair of Texas - marked this year by the loss of the towering, cowboy-hat-wearing Big Tex in a fire - may surpass the all-time high spent in previous years on food and amusement rides.
The fair ended Sunday. The current record was set in 2010 at $37.3 million.
State Fair president Errol McKoy says this year's fair could be close to that. He says, "It's just too close to call at this point."
The fair this year included a Chinese Lantern Festival and an exhibit celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Girl Scouts.
On Friday, the 52-foot-tall Big Tex was destroyed by fire due to an electrical malfunction. But officials say Big Tex will be restored and will be back for next year's fair.

Salvatore's Italian Grill sounds more like a restaurant, but inside, it quickly becomes clear: The bar is where it's happening. Located on the outer road of Highway 94 near Jungerman in St. Charles, the front entrance of Salvatore's opens into a non-smoking restaurant setting, with murals of the Italian countryside painted on the walls. But after that it opens up into a much bigger bar area where smoking is allowed, the TVs are on and, sometimes, there's even live music. Good news: The full menu of pizza, sandwiches, steak, pasta and salad are offered right at the bar. There are also beer specials during late-night happy hour Monday through Friday from 9 p.m. to midnight and all day Sunday.

It's hard to believe that we launched Picplum almost exactly a year ago. We have been focusing on making the best possible user experience for effortlessly sharing high-quality photo prints with loved ones. Along the way many developers have asked when they would be able to offer Picplum printing directly in their own apps. We're happy to announce our first Picplum API today!
Today we're releasing our API for developers to integrate into their own apps and services — whether they're for editing photos, sharing them, or collecting photos around events, gifting etc.
The Picplum API makes it easy to integrate photo printing into web or mobile apps: your users can upload photos from your app to Picplum and buy photo prints for themselves or for friends and family. We'll handle the printing and shipping, as well as a few other things (asking recipients for their addresses if the user doesn't have it and emailing photos and sending shipping notifications) to make your life easier.
Why Picplum?
We've found Picplum to be great for sending family photos and sharing memories from weddings and other life events, and photography enthusiasts can print their Instagrams or large photos to display on a wall. Picplum users have shared stories about how timely and appreciated a photo package is and we're confident the quality will keep your users coming back for more.
How the API works
The Picplum API uses an OAuth 2.0 flow and all API requests are done through POST or GET over HTTPS:
- Register your application to receive your OAuth client credentials
- Authorize users through your application to upload photos, add mail or email recipients, and send out a batch of photos
Take a look at the API documentation to get started and then register your application (you'll need a Picplum account to register an app).
Print Products
Our photos are printed on archival-quality lustre paper for accurate color reproduction without glare and fingerprint marks. Picplum has several sizes available from square 4"x4" prints to 8"x10" with more products and sizes being added regularly.
We do have the ability to print and personalize other print products such as postcards, greeting cards, panoromic prints, large format prints, calendars and more. If you have needs to integrate other products in your app or service please reach out to us.
Monetization and Revenue sharing
We are still in the process of integrating revenue sharing into the API.
We want to hear from you!
This is our first version of an API for Picplum and there are definitely some things left to add but we want to hear from you on what you would like to see! Send us an email if you have any thoughts or questions.

Clare Hadi ,
The Spanish Empire was one of the first modern global empires. It was also one of the largest empires in world history. In the 16th century Spain and Portugal were in the vanguard of European global exploration and colonial expansion and the opening of trade routes across the oceans, with trade flourishing across the Atlantic between Spain and the Americas and across the Pacific between East Asia and Mexico via the Philippines. Conquistadors deposed the Aztec, Inca and Maya governments with extensive help from local factions and laid claim to vast stretches of land in North and South America. For a time, the Spanish Empire dominated the oceans with its experienced navy and ruled the European battlefield with its fearsome and well trained infantry, the famous tercios: in the words of the prominent French historian Pierre Vilar, "enacting the most extraordinary epic in human history". Spain enjoyed a cultural golden age in the 16th and 17th centuries.This American empire was at first a disappointment, as the natives had little to trade, though settlement did encourage trade. The diseases such as smallpox and measles that arrived with the colonizers devastated the native populations, especially in the densely populated regions of the Aztec, Maya and Inca civilizations, and this reduced economic potential of conquered areas.In the 1520s large scale extraction of silver from the rich deposits of Mexico's Guanajuato began, to be greatly augmented by the silver mines in Mexico's Zacatecas and Bolivia's Potosí from 1546. These silver shipments re-oriented the Spanish economy, leading to the importation of luxuries and grain. They also became indispensable in financing the military capability of Habsburg Spain in its long series of European and North African wars, though, with the exception of a few years in the 17th century, Spain itself (Castile in particular) was by far the most important source of revenue. The financial burden within the peninsula was on the backs of the peasant class while the nobility enjoyed an increasingly lavish lifestyle. From the time beginning with the incorporation of the Portuguese empire in 1580 (lost in 1640) until the loss of its American colonies in the 19th century, Spain maintained the largest empire in the world even though it suffered fluctuating military and economic fortunes from the 1640s. Confronted by the new experiences, difficulties and suffering created by empire-building, Spanish thinkers formulated some of the first modern thoughts on natural law, sovereignty, international law, war, and economics; there were even questions about the legitimacy of imperialism in related schools of thought referred to collectively as the School of Salamanca. Despite these innovations many motives for the empire were rooted in the Middle Ages. Religion played a very strong role in the spread of the Spanish empire. The thought that Spain could bring Christianity to the new world certainly played a strong role in the expansion of Spain's empire.

WASHINGTON, May 2, 2001 Visit the DoD "Public Service Recognition Week" web site at www.defenselink.mil/specials/publicservice/.
Turn on CNN when U.S. troops deploy to some hotspot and you'll see soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines getting off aircraft or coming across the beach.
Lost in that mass of BDU-clothed individuals are the DoD civilians who deploy along with service members.
Thousands of DoD civilians provide on-the-spot support to service members deployed to trouble spots around the world. They wear BDUs just as the service members they support, but they do not carry weapons or there's no service name stitched above their left pockets.
Most of the civilians who deploy are experts in logistics, maintenance, communications or information technologies. Others are specialists in the areas where U.S. troops are deploying or are experts in law enforcement.
Sue Ward Moynihan is one of those civilians. Based at Rock Island National Inventory Control Point in Illinois, she deployed to Kosovo to support the U.S. peacekeeping effort there. The supply management specialist works with the Army's Tank Automotive and Armament Command. She, however, is assigned to the Army Materiel Command in Alexandria, Va.
"My job was to help ensure the readiness of the task force," Moynihan said. "I made sure that supply requests got personal attention. I really enjoyed working with soldiers.
"I went to Kosovo in December 1999," she said. "We did all the things service members did to ready for a deployment."
That meant traveling to Fort Benning, Ga., for preparation for overseas movement training. There she learned about mines and minefields, how to react to sniper fire and enemy artillery, and what she could or could not say to the media. Soldiers and civilians went through weapons familiarization and received overseas driving licenses. "Then we got on a plane at Atlanta and flew to Frankfurt, Germany," she said.
Some of the people deployed to Bosnia, others to the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and others to Kosovo. She arrived at Camp Able Sentry in Macedonia and had to hook a ride to Camp Bondsteel in Kosovo.
"It was so snowy, there was no way to get there by land," she said. "I arrived with a country-western band going to the camp to entertain the troops."
Moynihan, a former Army officer, said she was used to austere conditions. "It wasn't as bad as the first people who set up the camp in a wheat field," she said. "We had water on in C-huts -- it wasn't potable, but it allowed us to take showers and use flush toilets. You don't want to use port-o-johns when it's cold. You stick."
And very cold it was, Moynihan noted. "My computer was set up in the back of a truck," she said. "You had to start the truck periodically to warm it up. Even then, frost formed on the floor, so I finally got a rug to take care of that."
About the only excitement came one night when a trio of accused war criminals escaped from detention and the base went on alert, she said. "But I never felt unsafe while I was there," she said.
The hours were long and every day was just like the one before. "We called it 'Groundhog Day' after that movie where Bill Murray repeats the same day over and over," she said.
In their "spare time," Moynihan and the soldiers at Bondsteel helped local children.
"We were always busy and everyone was really motivated," she said. "It's a real mission and everyone realized their part was vital. We all wanted to ensure the equipment was in the highest state of readiness possible."
Moynihan, who left in May 2000, said her friend Mabel Hilton is in Kosovo now. "I can't wait to see her to hear how things have changed," she said.
Moynihan may be called on to deploy again. "It's part of the job," she said. "And while there may be hardships, it's rewarding to help."

Balboa Theatre
3630 Balboa Street,
San Francisco,
25 people favorited this theater
The Balboa Theatre is one of the very last neighborhood theatres still operating in the city. It was built by Samuel H. Levin as part of his chain of neighborhood theatres known as San Francisco Theatres Inc. Opened as the New Balboa Theatre on February 7, 1926 with a seating capacity for 800. It was designed by brothers James & Merritt Reid, renowned architects who also designed the Cliff Hose, Fairmont Hotel, Spreckels Temple of Music in Golden Gate Park and many other theatres in the Bay area. The Balboa Theatre was remodeled after a 1940's fire.
By the 1960's, the Balboa Theatre had very long runs of blockbuster films, at popular prices, includiing 92 weeks in 1966 and 1967 for "The Sound of Music", which followed the roadshow engagement at the United Artists Theatre on Market Street. After a another fire in in 1978, the theatre was twinned.
The theatre was run by the Levin family for almost 60 years until February 2001. At that time the Balboa Theatre, which was showing second-run films, underwent a renaissance thanks to the efforts by the co-owner of Landmark Theatres chain, Gary Meyer, who leased it from the Levin family. Meyer showed quality second-run films at very reasonable prices and his efforts built a buzz around town. He renovated the theatre and included revival and film festival screenings. He later switched to first-run films.
Meyer ran the theatre as a labor of love, but after a decade felt it was time for a change. The master lease was turned over to the San Francisco Neighborhood Theatre Foundation in late-2011 under a lease lasting through 2024. In February 2012 Meyer stepped down from being in charge. Both the Balboa Theatre and the Vogue Theatre are now part of the new CinemaSF organization, as the Vogue Theatre had already been rescued by the San Francisco Neighborhood Theatre Foundation.
The Balboa Theatre has 307 seats in auditorium 1 and 226 seats in auditorium 2.

I worked at the Balboa during the '70s. I was working there when Star Wars opened; in fact I remember the black and silver poster being hung up in the lobby. I didn't like sci-fi so I was
Gary Meyer has run the Balboa for 10 years and finally decided that he either had to sell it or take in a partner. It's been known for years that he hadn't made a dime off it but was operating it as a hobby, given his fulltime career as director of the Telluride film festival.
That partner is the San Francisco Neighborhood Theater Foundation, which also had taken over operating the Vogue Theater. Website: http://sfntf.org/
So, as of January 6, 2012, not only is the Balboa getting a new lease on life but a new outdoor paint job as well. Looks like the Balboa is saved for now.
The Balboa was taken over by Adam Bergeron and Jaimi Holker on Jan. 13, 2012. The master lease was turned over to the San Francisco Neighborhood Theater Foundation in late 2011. The enthusiastic new operators, Cinema SF, also are running the sister theater, the Vogue. I had obtained a city grant to redo the facade and we are proud of the results…need to get a photo up here soon. New heaters were installed and there are many other projects planed for both theaters. I will still consult on special events and whatever they need help on but the plans are going to really bring back the theaters with contiued special events too.

It will be accompanied with an original score by pianist extraordinaire Frederick Hodges www.frederickhodges.com , preceded by a program of short subjects including films by George Melies http://www.sensesofcinema.com/2004/great-directors/melies/ (HUGO again).

Wonder if Rocky Balboa played at this theater (the original 1976 version)? LOL
Scroll down before you leave stupid comments, you nitwit.
Look at Feb 24, 2010.
It wasn't funny then and it's not funny now.
Stick to your little toss fest in North Jersey.
yup, and I apologize to those who actually bring something creative to this site instead of the self important nonsense I've been complaining about for 4 years.
Actually I should have said scroll up. Doesn't matter though the concept of thought is lost on some.
I on the other hand have had enough and since the powers that be here seem to be asleep at the switch, keeping people on topic and keeping the inane drivel off the board, I've taken the law into my own hands.
I only noticed this comment since I am in the process of removing all my photos and any evidence of my presence here
exactly, I tried to contribute something that some basis and merit to this site.
Not posting comments for comments sake, not posting up something that can be found in a common spot like Fandango or MovieTickets.com.
I've complained about this waste of resources and it continues, even to today.
So I'm taking my insightful thoughtful comments and photographs never to be seen again. You folks want to leave up stupidity about such and such movie being shown in a particular format and other inane drivel, you go right ahead.
My photos are gone, favourites removed. I'm in the process of removing my comments. Since this can't be done in a mass way, I need to do it one by one, so that will take me a few weeks.
Once they are gone, they're gone. You've had your chances to stop this stupidity.
A 2011 photo can be seen here.
HDTV, Very sad that you would remove all your photos so that even after you've decide to up and leave, others can't enjoy
Does anyone know if the Balboa has Dolby Digital or a reguler stereo set up with surrounds? Last time I went it was mono sound. If they are now showing first run films please put in a better sound system. Most people now have Dolby Digital at home. Some day I hope they take out the wall down the middle and turn it back to single screen. I don't like the narrow long look it is in know. (terrywade, August 11, 2007)
I'm fairly certain that they still don't have Dolby, and I'm not even sure if they have stereo sound. I've seen a hundred movies there (probably) and I don't even remember what they sounded like.
They were recently able to convert to digital projection, with a little help from a kickstarter, but I'm not sure about the sound. I just started working at Dolby this week, I should probably start paying attention to these things. Ha ha.

- people in the U.S. have this name View Valerie Wick on Whitepages
Meaning & Origins
From the French form of the Latin name Valeria, feminine of Valerius, an old Roman family name apparently derived from valere 'to be healthy, strong'. The name owes its popularity as a male name in France to the cult of a 3rd-century saint who was converted to Christianity by Martial of Limoges. The masculine form Valery is found occasionally in England in the 16th century, but by the 17th century had fallen into disuse.
|231st in the U.S.
English: topographic name for someone who lived in an outlying settlement dependent on a larger village, Old English wīc (Latin vicus), or a habitational name from a place named with this word, of which there are examples in Berkshire, Gloucestershire, Somerset, and Worcestershire. The term seems to have been used in particular to denote an outlying dairy farm or a salt works.

The loss of the ship was probably the intent.
+1 -- it was probably insured well. easier to sink the mofo, than to sell.
Pretty sad state for the Bounty. I figure they'll take it "off line" soon, but the Bounty's Facebook page tells the story of their departure and "plan" to avoid, and situation as it unfolded rapidly.
My thoughts are certainly for the lost, and I hope their survival suits they apparently had on will keep them safe and get them found.
Bounty Facebook page
I pray they are found but know it is not going to happen.
Even I know I should have gone for a ride today with this great weather we are having.
Well I went for a ride today!
I rode both days of this past weekend!
Nanner nanner!
I ran errands on my bike and voted early...so at least I got to ride. On another note the buyers bank had our our house inspected only found three minor problems that we need to fix prior to the sale. Things are going too good to be true. Knock wood.
W00t !!!
Here is crossing body parts for your sale.
::: shut up Doc ::::
Was up in Bentonville today and saw an ARCH BK-117 landing at Mercy so went over and it was the bird from Joplin where I used to fly (not the same bird as it was destroyed in Tornado, but another ARCH bird). Pilot was one of the guys I worked with. He told me they are indeed putting Med Flight 3 at Mercy. I am torn, as it would be great to work at home again, but the pay cut, and all the down sides of EMS are giving me second thoughts on even inquiring about the job. Pay cut would probably be $20,000 but could work over plenty and never be more than 2.5 hours from home. Plus you never know when, like EagleMed did, they may just close down the base.
Will be on my mind for awhile I guess, they are looking at February and the aircraft will be the EC-130, a modified version essentially of the A-Star I flew here for EagleMed.
BTW, I did ride my bike to the gym. I was a bit cold at first but actually sweating a bit, wearing shorts no less, in upper 30's weather. I had on good gloves and a wrap around my ears, long sleeve warm jersey, and a light wind vest. On the ride home weather wasn't bad at all.
mornin fellers
hey elvis..does your DR still run?
Mornin' Doc.
Heard from the insurance co yesterday. They've offered $6K for Yellaphant. I reckon I'll take 'em up on it.
I hope you can sleep with the guilt....
Of course I can. Years of practice.
Happy to hear you're OK. Go eat some deer and get some sleep.
I went back to get the deer and some redneck done stole it. :ruskie
I'll take a nap later. Shopping for new toys at the moment.
$6000 eh..you got your moneys worth out of it..how many miles didja have on it? Are they going to take it or do you get to part it out?
It has 179,604 miles on it. I paid $12K for it 11 years ago.
They're gonna take it. I'm pulling my gps of it today, and all the wiring for my heated gear. It's been a great bike, probably the most dependable vehicle I've ever owned. I seriously doubt if I find another one quite like it.
I did find an airhead GS for sale which is whispering seductively in my ear...
Rode to work under a full moon this morning. It was beautiful, but it was chilly . Coffee tastes extra good on a bracing morning.

CALABASAS, Calif. (AP) Authorities say they've arrested a man who's accused of breaking into Selena Gomez's guesthouse while the 21-year-old actress and singer was home.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department says 20-year-old transient Cruz Che is being held Monday on $50,000 bail. Deputies didn't know if he'd retained an attorney.
Sgt. Fray Lupian says Gomez arrived at Gomez's Calabasas (cal-uh-BASS'-us) home at about 9:30 p.m. Sunday when she heard a noise and called security.
He says the suspect knocked on the door and a friend answered but slammed it closed when he asked for Gomez.
Security found the suspect in the guesthouse and held him for deputies.
Gomez, the former "Wizards of Waverly Place" actress turned pop star, was named favorite female singer Saturday night at the Kids' Choice Awards.

We were leery of sitting down to eat at this place based on the tacky decor, but decided to dine there anyways. We were seated quickly, but thats where any sort of service ended. Our waitress did not know that we existed for most of the night, and during the course of the evening stopped by a total of about three times. The only time she actually said anything friendly was when she was dropping off the check. After eating their mediocre Mexican food and receiving the bill, we realized that we were charged for all the little extras that our server asked us about, but failed to mention would cost more. We felt cheated. We spoke to management about poor service and he did not offer any solace. I would recommend that you avoid this restaurant at all cost.
Posted by anonymous on 05/13/2008
the quality has really gone down here the last few years while the prices continue to rise. the margaritas are nothing to brag about and one can taste more sugar than margarita. mediocre mexican food. no happy hour. why go?
Posted by Terrible! on 11/08/2007
The restaurant has a nice appeal from the outside as well as a great location BUT after you receive your meal you realize its just there to make a buck off the tourists who walk by. I am a new yorker and would never go back! The food tasted like something from Taco Bell but served on a plate. The food presentation in one word would be called Slop. If you want something cheap, then this is the place for you, just dont expect authentic mexican food and service.
Posted by Jaime on 11/02/2007
The huge taxi and logo on the front of the building and say it all. If you're looking for half-decent Tex-Mex this is NOT your place. This restaurant is a marketing manager's wet dream with the brand plastered on everything from the placemats to the paper cups the margaritas are served in. It is, hands down, the most worst Tex-Mex place I've ever been to. The chips tasted like cardboard, the salsa was tasteless, and the margarita tasted like a Jolly Rancher. Had they put into their cooking half the effort they put into plastering their logo everwhere it might have been worthwhile. They should focus less on expanding their brand and more on making their food edible.

Showed up here on a Saturday night at 7 pm, seated within 10 minutes, then the disaster started. Our waitress (who was extremely busy - one person for 8 tables would be ) finally stopped at our table 15 minutes after we were seated, took our order, we asked for two beers and three waters - beer showed up 10 minutes later, but no water. Ordered guacamole and three combo platters - combo platters came out in 5 minutes, literally inedible. Guacamole was brought out after we asked for it after our 5 minute entrees were brought out. I had to ask three people before it was finally brought out! Guac tasted like stale sour cream (amazing, looked like guacamole but tasted like stale sour cream). No one finished their meals and we were then presented with the bill - Definitely not worth the $30 each of us dropped on this so-called food. Overall impression - horribly understaffed, food is sub-par quality, have to ask five times for water and an unpleasant experience.

I got a steak fajita chimichanga. Ok, first off a chimichanga is SUPPOSED to be fried. Mine was put on some sort of a grill, since it had the grill mark lines. The steak inside this thing was questionable, at best. A real mexican restaurant uses skirt steak to make fajitas, burritos, etc. The kicker was that they charge good restaurant prices. I mean, if I'm going to eat a subpar chimichanga, I expect it to be 9 or 10 bucks. This "entree" was like 15 or 16. The guacamole was edible but definitely not good. What's more is that the chips were terrible. I wanted to run across to the deli to get decent chips.

As Diwali 07 makes its way around the corner, we can all expect to witness the Best of Bollywood so to speak. Of course its all speculation but Farah Khans Om Shanti Om is supposed to be one of the biggest, badest, most lavish products to hit floors this year. Well, its a bit too early to lay a hand on the cinematic product, but its time to extensively discuss its soundtrack of which much has been said and speculated till date.
The fact that the films music was first offered to A.R. Rahman says a lot. Obviously Farah felt the film was deserving of a soundtrack that emulates nothing less than extraordinary. Unfortunately, for whatever reason (speculations overflow), Rahman saab was forced to leave the project. Well, one mans loss is another mans gain. In this case, there are two lucky fellows who profit the versatile duo of Vishal-Shekhar.
As if asking Vishal-Shekhar to fill the shoes of Rahman wasnt enough; Farah requested the musical ambiance to tip-toe along the R.D. Burmanesque trend. Yes, the music Is intended to take listeners back several decades back to when music was real music, whatever that is supposed to mean.
Sure, Vishal-Shekhar have faced expectations before, but none compared to the ones they face today. Not only will their skills be pushed to the limit, but their versatility and adaptability will be tested more so than ever. And finally we have lyricist Javed Akhtar, who has grown quite fond of Vishal-Shekhar as of late. I think I went through a minor anxiety attack while picking the CD up probably because I keep praying and hoping V-S can finally give us that one score that will just knock your socks off, especially since their previous three soundtracks this year (Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd., Ta Ra Rum Pum, and Cash) have definitely not been up to V-S standards. Enough chit-chat folks. Here we go
In many ways, Ajab Si reminds us of a previous gem by V-S, which was quick to be forgotten Chand Ki Roshni from the film Home Delivery. And the similarities continue into the vocals, as it is K.K. once again who is blessed with the opportunity to render one of V-Ss greatest tunes. Or wait, are V-S the ones blessed to have K.K. render one of his greatest songs? Well, either way both are very privileged. I know its cliché but Its as if K.K. was born to sing this very song. His evocative vocals seamlessly latch onto the acoustic rhythm, becoming one with the music. Vishal pens this one himself and is at his romantic best. Little credit is ever given to Vishal, who writes a lot of his own songs with elegance. However, so much of your attention will simply be captivated by the musical and vocal elements of the piece that you will find yourself completely unaware of the lyrics at times, as was the case with me during my first exposure to this gorgeous spectacle of sound. Excuse me, while I have another listen
Next up we have Dard-E-Disco, three words I doubt you will ever hear together again. OK this is what V-S are somewhat known for (heavy beats, loud sounds, arrangements belonging to the techno/club genre). Of course if you were to ask me, I feel Track #1 is what they are best at. But I digress. Dard-E-Disco is a song that holds a creative glass that is half-empty. Arrangements contain sounds that were previously utilized in their albums like Dus and Cash. To add to the creative-lacking and non-evocative arrangements, the melody holds no catch value either. Sukhwinder Singh performs well, as usual, but the singer is only as good as the song he is given, right? Not to mention, the constant repetition of the Dard-E-Disco refrain will begin to test even the most patient of nerves. Singers Marianne, Nisha, and Caralisa Monteiro form a female chorus to back Sukhi. Any guess as to what the chorus sings? Dard-E-Disco Dard-E-Disco. NEXT!
And those Gods are beginning to grin once again. Deewangi Deewangi is a treat for everyone to shake a leg to. This exciting dance number is animatedly lit with the addictive tune of a fargo synth, which paves the way for a colorful number one would expect from a Farah Khan film very Yash Rajish. Although V-S invigorate the composition with a lot of modern instruments the piece does carry the intended nostalgia, which is felt through the musical interims via the strings. The vocal cast includes Shaan, Udit Narayan, Rahul Saxena (Indian Idol talent), Shreya Ghoshal, and Sunidhi Chauhan. Rahul, albeit in a very brief appearance, appears as the misfit of the group his timid vocals dont match the power and energy that has been exulted by the other singers. Although the infectious number could have done away with the English lyrics throughout, the piece is still extremely enjoyable and will be a pure treat to savor on screen especially since SRK will be going wild after a long time in this number. Folks, treat yourself to some unadulterated fun and put your hands up in the air and sing OM SHANTI OM.
V-S put us in a time machine, taking us back to the 60s and 70s where we experience a very lively Dhoom Tana. Although V-S had gone back in time to do arrangements before (Kyon Aaga Peeche from the film Golmaal Fun Unlimited), theyve never done something to this extent. With this composition, V-S have single-handedly proven that they are amongst the most perceptive and versatile composers India has. From the instruments used, the melody structuring, right down to the fine variations in singing style, V-S have successfully created a sense of Déjà vu for any listener who is familiar with the sounds of yesteryear. Abhijeet and Shreya Ghoshal also deserve a pat on the back for seamlessly mixing with the style and genre that V-S have brought back decades later. Javed Akhtar plays his role well as the lyricist. Verdict: Its as if Laxmikant, Pyarelal, and R.D. Burman rose from the dead to compose this track!
Flash-forward to 2007 and Vishal-Shekhar stop on a dime to create a heart-wrenching composition featuring one of the greatest voices today Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. The piece under the microscope is Jag Soona Soona Lage. Although V-S use one steadily arranged rhythm throughout the piece, its done with intent, purpose, and care. Im a firm believer that an arranger/composer (you cant really use those words interchangeably anymore in Bollywood) need not mix a variety of rhythms or raags into a piece to create creative quality rather, if a single constructive rhythm contains quality in itself, it may very well be fitting to use that one rhythm throughout and this is EXACTLY what Vishal-Shekhar do, and they take full advantage of it.
The somber, yet seductive rhythm paves a path upon which RFAK can put down his gut-wrenching vocals, which he has done superbly! Of course I dont want to skip over Richa Sharmas brilliant introduction, as she pours her heart out in her signature Punjabi folk style, rendering lyrics (Punjabi) by Kumaar. Apart from the steady rhythm and RFAKs magnificent vocalization, V-S try not to touch their creation any more, and rightfully restrict to just pouring a little string under the vocals for instrumental support. And if you wonder why I havent been giving much attention to Javed Akhtar throughout the album, its because I was waiting for him to write a song just like this soulful sad exquisite. He writes on a mans desolation a mans loss a mans cry. And my goodness how he delivers! Verdict: After Ajab Si took away the Gold in breath-taking fashion, Jag Soona Soona Lage comes in a close second.
Ok, now Vishal-Shekhar are just plain showing off! Dastaan-E-Om Shanti Om is the perfect culmination to a truly versatile soundtrack. For the very first-time, Vishal-Shekhar give us an orchestral piece but its not a conventional orchestral piece by any means. By using a slight rock influence to serve as the arranged base, V-S build upon it with various orchestral elements like strings, orchestral flute, harp, oboe etc. The song is based off of the unforgettable classic Ek Haseena Thi from the film Karz. Shaans rendition will put a chill down your spine, while Javed Akhtar builds upon the pre-conceived lyrics, keeping in line with the haunting effect of this themed piece. This piece, as all orchestral pieces, can only truly be appreciated once you listen to it for yourself. No critique or review of mine will be able to sum up the effect this piece had on me. I urge you.
The final five tracks comprise of four remixes and one theme piece. The remixes are quite ordinary, and I will avoid wasting my time discussing them at any length. However, the Om Shanti Om Theme Music is a petite pianist rendition of the theme music heard in Dastaan-E-Om shanty Om and other tracks throughout the soundtrack. It will be a soothing experience to hear it played in the backdrops of the film.
Nobody will be as relieved as I was when I heard Om Shanti Om. Why? Because its been since early 2005, after the release of soundtracks like Shabd and Home Delivery that V-S have been able to finally get back on the horse and show us what they are really capable of. With Om Shanti Om, the energy, the quality, the passion, the urge to be creative has all suddenly rushed back into the heads of these extremely talented young MDs.
For most people, composing under such high expectations and for such a huge film, especially after it was initially offered to Rahman the Great, would spell disaster, as theyd probably crack under the pressure. But not only have V-S proven themselves in terms of musical ingenuity and quality, they have shown us the confidence, the poise, and the ability to step up to the plate and hit a grand-slam when theyre called upon to do so. Oh and I forgot to mention their unbelievable versatility coming up with something so diverse and well-crafted after releasing a techno-heavy/monotonous album in the form of Cash just a few months prior.
Of course when the film releases, people will all but forget the gentlemen behind the music. But today is your day V-S. I give you a standing ovation.

Meriton Buys Prime Dee Why Site
by: January 18th, 2014
Apartment complex development company, Meriton, has bought a prime site on Sydney's northern beaches.
According to The Australian, more than $50 million is believed to have been paid for the Dee Why Town Centre site, which it plans to turn into a $340 million apartment, retail and office complex.
The development will feature four separate towers ranging in height from 7 to 18 levels. It will house over 450 apartments, its own 4,000 square metre supermarket, various retail and office components and a town square with landscaped grounds and open air cafes, leading back into a variety of shops and arcades.
The towers will contain one and two-bedroom apartments, each with rooftop gardens and stunning views. Meriton is expecting a lot of interest from first home buyers, locals wishing to downsize from their current homes and also investors from overseas. Construction of the complex is expected to begin some time in 2015.

Re: Roger : We are best ever, The four of us? Thats a really difficult call.
Like all these crap commentators, Agassi try to promote tennis. In 2020, Agassi, Trollander and co will say that Tomic play better than any player ever played before... Nobody will say "well, tennis players are averages today comparing to pasts champions" Casuals fans need to think that their champions are the bests.
It was the same when everyone called Federer the "best ever" even though he had only 6 slams. It was disrespectful for pasts legends like Laver, Gonzalez, Hoad...
I like Federer because he never said these kinds of statements, he's very respectful of pasts champions. Djokovic said many times than him and his mates raised tennis to a new level. His tennis knowledege is poor. I remember, in 2009 (Nadal had 4 FO) a journalist ask him who had won the most FO in the history (Borg easily at that time). He answered a shit like "i don't know... Nadal?"

Rice runs over Marshall
HOUSTON -- Marshall University's dreams of a Conference USA football championship came to a cold, hard stop Saturday as Rice dominated from the onset and didn't let up to defeat the Thundering Herd, 41-24, in front of an announced 20,247 spectators at Rice Stadium.
"You have to give it to Rice and Coach (David) Bailiff," Marshall head coach Doc Holliday said. "That football team played extremely well and you have to give them credit.
"It's unfortunate that we didn't play as well as we liked and we have to get better."
After the loss Marshall officially accepted a bid to the Military Bowl, which will be played at 2:30 p.m. Dec. 27 in Annapolis, Md., against an Atlantic Coast Conference opponent to be determined.
Rice dictated from the start, scoring on a trick play on the first drive and keeping the Herd on its heels throughout the contest.
Trailing by 11 at halftime, Marshall's best chance at getting back into the game ended on the first drive of the second half when Herd quarterback Rakeem Cato was intercepted by Rice safety Julius White at the Owls' 22-yard line.
Marshall's offense, which had averaged 601 yards in the last five games, found itself limited to just 371 yards in the loss.
Cato was 24 of 41 passing for 265 yards and two touchdowns, but Marshall's rushing attack didn't get in gear. Essray Taliaferro was limited to 53 rushing yards and Steward Butler was injured early in the game, taking away the Herd's one-two punch in the backfield.
The passing game was also limited as Rice's secondary blanketed receivers, forcing Marshall to make tough catches. The Herd didn't help its own cause with dropped passes early in the game, either.
"As an offensive group, we didn't make plays," Cato said. "We didn't put enough points on the board to win the ballgame."
Rice used the early second-half turnover to jumpstart a third quarter when the Owls outscored Marshall 13-0 on a 17-yard run by Darik Dillard and an 8-yard pass from Luke Turner to Connor Cella to take a commanding 34-10 lead.
Marshall was able to get a touchdown on Cato's 7-yard scoring pass to Essray Taliaferro with 11:02 left, but the Herd elected not to go for two, leaving the game a three-score contest at 34-17.
"There's a time that you need to go for two, and early on, we didn't absolutely," Holliday said. "We felt like we had a shot of getting the onside kick at the end and didn't get it unfortunately."
The onside kick came after Marshall answered a 16-yard scoring run by Charles Ross, which came after Marshall was stopped on downs, with a 3-yard TD pass from Cato to Devon Smith to once again cut it to 17 after no two-point conversion attempt.
The Owls excelled on both sides of the field to earn their first conference championship since winning the Southwest Conference in 1957.
In addition to the defense shutting off the Herd offense, Rice's offense used the veteran play of quarterback Taylor McHargue and a little bit of trickery to jump out to a 14-0 lead just seven minutes into the game.
On the first Rice drive of the day a halfback pass from Turner found Donte Moore for a 35-yard score. Turner took a toss to the right, which drew cornerback Monterius Lovett up in run support. Moore got in behind Lovett and walked into the end zone.
"That was very unexpected," Lovett said. "I didn't do my job. I saw the run and I came up when I wasn't supposed to. That was on me. That was my fault. I had my eyes in the wrong place."
Turner, a running back, finished 2-of-2 passing for 43 yards with both going for scores while rushing for 39 yards to earn game Most Valuable Player honors.
After forcing a three-and-out, McHargue found Jordan Taylor for a 75-yard score after Taylor got in behind Marshall's Corey Tindal. Taylor had 131 yards on six receptions.
Marshall attempted a response, but a failed third-down inside the Owls' 10-yard line led to a 27-yard field goal by Justin Haig to get the Herd on the board.
That momentum was short-lived as Rice was back in the end zone four plays later when Ross bowled in from four yards out after McHargue completed passes of 28 and 20 yards to get the Owls back into the red zone.
Trailing 21-3, the Herd finally got into the end zone on a 1-yard run by Devon Johnson with 9:18 left in the half. Johnson's run came after Cato avoided a sack with a stiff-arm and hit Gator Hoskins for a 27-yard gain.
Marshall's defense finally got the stops it needed to gain possession, but the Herd's final three possessions of the half each started inside their own 10-yard line and Rice went to the half with a two-score lead.
The kickoff temperature of 35 degrees was the coldest for a C-USA championship, beating the 46 degree start of the 2008 game in Tulsa, Okla.
Despite the loss, Marshall is heading back to a bowl game for the first time since winning the Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl two years ago. It is the Herd's third bowl game in five years.
