Those celebrities – they turn up in the funniest places! This week the world looked on as former basketball star Dennis Rodman showed up in North Korea. He's not the first to use fame to guide us towards world peace/a saved planet/improved relations by visiting far-flung corners. Here's a geographic guide to other celebs engaged on unlikely foreign affairs (we couldn't include Bono, Bob Geldof or Angelina Jolie – or the map would just be one big Irishman with really great legs).
Dennis Rodman: North Korea
Pyongyang has made no secret of its dislike of America, but this may be all about to change. Dennis Rodman has been snapped hugging Kim Jong-un (a big fan of basketball), and hopes to "break the ice" between NK and the US.
Sting: Amazon rainforest
The Police singer set up the Rainforest Foundation in 1989, after visiting Brazil and having lots of pictures taken with tribespeople. Now, he says we need to save the rainforest to stop climate change, and he's flying all over the world for the cause.
Lord Byron: Greece
It may have been traditional for upper-class gents to swan off on a Grand Tour of Europe – but they weren't supposed to take up arms for the countries they visited. In 1823, Byron did just that, fighting for Greek liberation.
George Clooney: Sudan
The silver fox decided to throw the full weight of his fame behind the Nuba mountain people of Sudan, raising awareness of a humanitarian crisis in Darfur, and on the border between Sudan and South Sudan.
Paul Robeson: USSR
In 1932, the singer and actor visited the Soviet Union, which he would continue to praise as less racist than America. In 1952, he was awarded the unfortunately named "Stalin Peace Prize" – although he couldn't collect it, his US passport having been revoked.
The actor may be Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez's biggest fan. He even turned up there last summer to help Chavez campaign for his re-election; surely it was the Penn wot won it.
The national treasure campaigned for Nepalese Gurkhas who had served the British Army, saying that they had earnt the right to live in the UK. She's one of the few celeb activists to receive a very warm reception, when she visited Nepal in 2009.
Before she discovered exercise videos and helping women to tone-up, Fonda was more concerned with helping the Vietnamese. "Hanoi Jane" was controversially snapped in 1972 sitting on a gun, and made radio broadcasts calling US politicians "war criminals".

The murder trial of Jacob Pearman, charged in the Valentine's Day 2013 murder of his wife, has been postponed until January 2015, according to Assistant District Attorney J. Paul Newman.
Circuit Court Judge David Bragg agreed to the continuance from June 16 on Friday after the state and defense had an informal meeting. He also will allow retiring DA Bill Whitesell to serve as district attorney pro tem and make the trial's final closing argument, which typically isn't allowed for a pro tem, Newman said.
In a Friday hearing, Bragg said he wasn't inclined to postpone the trial but would review arguments made by Pearman's attorney, Luke Evans, and Whitesell and rule next Friday when he hears a defense motion to dismiss the indictment against Pearman because it combines a murder charge and aggravated child abuse charge. Bragg also will hear motions dealing with text messages made in connection with the homicide.
Pearman is charged with choking and killing his newlywed wife, Carla, Feb. 14, 2013. Pearman was arrested the next day in Manchester after fleeing Murfreesboro in a Jeep Wrangler. He pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder.
The defendant's attorney argued Friday that the case should be continued until September based on three points: 1) He is involved in a federal trial in Nashville that has a conflicting schedule 2) An aggravated child abuse charge against Pearman should not have been consolidated with the murder charge in the indictment, and 3) Computers that contain information showing Pearman was suicidal before the homicide were not made readily available to him by the district attorney general's office.
"I have an obligation on behalf of my client to review all of that information," Evans argued, contending due process demands that he have adequate time to prepare a defense based on what is contained on the computers.
Whitesell, however, said Assistant DA Paul Newman's murder trial schedule would force postponement until sometime in February 2015. He also pointed out that the Circuit Court schedule in Rutherford County can't operate around the federal courts in Nashville.
The district attorney general, who is leaving office in September, also said he didn't understand the defense's argument against consolidating the charges because the defense agreed to it.
"Aggravated child abuse served as a motive for Mr. Pearman's behavior in the murder case," Whitesell said.
The state contends that Pearman abused his wife's young son, which led to an argument and her eventual death.
Whitesell said the court is already aware that Pearman contemplated suicide before the murder, and he argued that what is contained on the computers might not even be admissible in court. He contended that the defense had access to the computers beginning in March.

Counting cars
Anyone here ever track how many Grand Cherokees you see a day? I know that when you own a certian model you tend to notice them more, but here in central Florida, I generally count about 40 Grand Cherokees a day! That's alot! They are everywhere here!
Re: Counting cars
I see a lot more than Reattae.
Re: Counting cars
There are a lot here too!
Re: Counting cars
I can tell for sure that there aren't as many here in my area (just north of Tampa) - especially not WK2s.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Re: Counting cars
I see tons. Lots of WJs and WKs here, and a few ZJs. A good number of WK2s as well. I think there are 2 others at work (a Limited 2wd and a Laredo x 4wd), and I've seen 2 WK2s in my apt. complex as well.
There were tons of higher end ones back home in South FL. Lots of loaded Limiteds and Overlands and Summits, but mostly 2wd.
Certainly seems to be selling great.
Re: Counting cars
I'm not talking about just WK2's, I'm counting just Grand Cherokee's. I've had a record 15 Grand Cherokee's one my trip into work in the morning which is about 18 miles. And, until the Grand Cherokee, we always crowned Toyota with "the most cars in the first two rows at the intersection" in the past, but those included other models within the manufacturer. The record was 8. A mixture of Camery's, Corolla's, and trucks. The new record is still eight, but they were all Grand Cherokees! And if I applied the same liberal rule to Jeep, then the same record comparison would include 1 Liberty, and 1 Compass, 1 1980's looking "Scrambler?" (It looked like a pick up truck Jeep thing.) so the record is really 11 now! Most double lane intersections with double turn lanes means a possible 32 opprotunities, so 11 is a third!
I can't believe that this count is so unusually high just for central Florida. North of Tampa and the the Ocala area is a bit less populated maybe why. I swear I'm not making up these counts. I can hardly believe the counts myself. Which is why I started this thread. I'm anxious to see if other members start counting Grand Cherokees and what those numbers are. I tend to think in the south in general will have more Grand Cherokee's than the north maybe? Let's all start counting and see.....
Re: Counting cars
As far as WK'2 are concerned, I see at least 10 a day and I don't venture far from home. Sometimes I see them in pairs. Interestingly most have female drivers. Mostly Laredo's.
Re: Counting cars
I see a few every time I drive. I'd say 80% are Laredo's though.
Re: Counting cars
I work at home and have no set schedule, but somehow I cannot leave my own neighborhood without crossing 3 other WK2s within 2 or 3 miles regardless of time. Makes me feel good about my taste, but also makes me wonder if I should have selected something else:)
Re: Counting cars
Never done a count, but they've gone from rare to fairly commonplace around here within the last year or less. Seems to be similar to the Enclave ramp up curve not long back, but faster.
Unscientific, perhaps, but there seem to be roughly as many WK2s on the road as Enclaves -- even though the latter has been around lots longer, and really competes with the new Durango that's rarely seen hereabouts.

Linux compilers ...
I was wondering what variety of C compilers was in use on Linux
systems, particularly Xubuntu 12.04. Were these systems clean
installations, or upgrades?
I'm trying to sort out whether issues I'm having with gcc 4.6.2 under
Xubuntu 12.04 relating to Mathlink, but possibly also to CUDALink, are
of my own creation or more deeply seated.
Many thanks in advance,
Dave Annetts.

Justin Timberlake Releases Latest Single On Revamped MySpace
The redesigned social network goes public with a focus on helping artists share their music with a larger audience.
As the frontman for the newly relaunched social network, it only makes sense that MySpace goes public after Justin Timberlake releases his new single 'Suit & Tie' (which is featured prominently on the site and can be listened to for free).
The new site will focus on helping artists share their music with a larger audience and makes it easy for anyone to repost songs they find from their profile.
An audio deck at the bottom of each page lets users play songs and add others to the queue, while the People tab enables you to connect with friends and artists.
Wired reports that the Discover section includes trending items like artists, users, and videos, as well as a prominent music-specific section with new albums and recommended artists. There is also a Mixes section for sharing playlists and a message stream for posting updates, photos, and music.

Scammers Pose as Deputies to Get "Green Dot" Information, Commit Fraud
Kent County detectives hope to track down scammers using the Sheriff's Department to get at someone's money, personal or financial information.
On Monday, investigators were told by a resident they'd been called by someone claiming to be with the Sheriff's department. The phone number's caller ID was mocked up to look authentic, the message was that there's a warrant for arrest and hundreds of dollars must be paid to cover the matter. The person contacted was suspicious, despite the reference in the call to an actual Kent County Sheriff's employee and called in to bonafide detectives.
Captain Kevin Kelley in Administration with KSCD said this mirrors the "Green Dot" scams where the caller claims to be with the IRS or a family member needing money fast. They suggest keeping your personal information and money from being sent out until you're sure of the situation and other person involved.
Lieutenant Al Roetman of the Kent County Detectives Bureau told WOOD Radio they would never solicit money from the public by phone, even when there's a legitimate contact from the department. Still, "three people called after we made this matter public to say they'd been taken." Lt. Roetman said the fake phone number provides the temporary credit card number and access to the funds without possessing that device.

When is Port not a Port?
By Leslie Gevirtz
NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) - Vintners can take the vines out of Portugal but can they be used to produce the full-bodied Port wine that the nation is famous for in another country?
Peter Prager thinks so. His family has been making Port in California's Napa Valley for 30 years, partly because no one else was.
But Rupert Symington, whose ancestors have been linked with the wine in Portugal's Douro Region since the 17th century doubts any wine made elsewhere would really be Port.
"What's important is that people recognize the real thing," he explained in an interview.
"There are copies, but unlike cars and computer chips, we have such a unique soil and weather system that it's almost impossible to replicate what we have ... Even if you transplant the same vines to California, it won't taste the same. If you want the real thing, you have to buy the real thing," he insisted.
Trade agreements seem to support his argument. U.S. vintners are prohibited from selling anything they make as Port in Europe, Japan or Canada.
Prager, 49, conceded that while he used the same varietals as those grown in Portugal, along with other grapes European producers would never consider such as Petite Syrah and Chardonnay, his wines did not taste the same.
"We make Port here because it can be made very well here," Prager said from his family's winery in St Helena, California. Continued...

On the treadmill with fresh legs, I didn't need to walk. I just ran a pretty slow pace, varying it to keep my HR at about 75%. (Working a marathon hard, I can hold an average of 85%, 82% for a relatively tough 50k, and a decent but not too hard marathon effort for me is about 80% HR average)
I took a couple short walk breaks to make sure I got hydrated and to eat a gel at one point, but that was it. And the couple minute break to roll out the knot in my calf. In my trail marathoning, with fresh legs, I can usually tick up 15% grades at a 12-13 min/mile pace provided the footing isn't too extreme and the altitude isn't too bad. I'm very tall though, and those levers are tough to move, and once it gets much steeper than that, I cross over to walking. And, of course, a 10%-15% grade later in the course is going to send me to walk mode unless it's pretty smooth (like the final big hill climb in the Blue Ridge Parkway Marathon, which is steep, but paved.)
Thanks for the advice and encouragement on this thread. I'm feeling a lot less nervous. Sleeping in the stupid altitude tent that takes up half the basement on a crummy air mattress with the 02 level set to simulate 11,000 is annoying, and I don't have great faith it'll do much for my performance, but I think it'll help stave off nausea and headache at least given I live at sea level. I'll also be doing an actual taper this time around, something I usually don't do very well.

FLORENCE – Angela Crosland of the Public and Community Affairs Office at Francis Marion University has become the third recipient of the FMU African-American Faculty and Staff Coalition (AAFSC) Diversity Award. The award seeks to recognize a faculty or staff member for their significant contributions to enhance the university's diversity and inclusiveness.
"We chose her because of her complete body of work not only across campus but in the community as well," said Howard Brown, vice president of the coalition and chairman of the selection committee.
"Her interaction with faculty, staff and students embodies the ideals of diversity," Brown said.
Recipients of the FMU African-American Faculty and Staff Coalition Diversity Award are people who routinely and voluntarily make diversity and inclusion a priority in much of what they do. Recipients also include people not only whose major responsibilities are implementing gender diversity and inclusion initiatives, but consistently explore ways to go above and beyond expectations.
The award was presented to Crosland at the 11th Annual Banquet of the AAFSC on Thursday, Feb. 23. The proceeds from the banquet go toward the group's scholarship funds and functions. The keynote speaker for the gala was FMU Alum Stacey Brayboy ('94), chief of staff for the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS).
Crosland joined the Public Affairs office at FMU in December 2006 where she is responsible for communications and publications at Francis Marion. Her responsibilities include researching, writing and editing news and feature articles for the mass media, producing publications and serving as the spokesperson for the university.
A native of Marion, Crosland has worked as a reporter for more than 11 years, six of which were with the Morning News in Florence and as communications coordinator for the South Carolina School Boards Association. She earned a bachelor's degree in media arts at the University of South Carolina in 2000 and a master's degree in English in 2004.
Crosland has one son, Daniel James II. She is the daughter of David and Sarah Crosland of Marion, S.C.

can this be fixed?
1 Attachment(s)
This is a follow on post to the posts that I did about the guy who did work for me that wasn't up to code. I found a cable that he stripped away the sheating and there is a tiny pin point area of insulation missing from the live wire. It looks like he did it to test the line. Is there any way to fix this without doing a jbox or running new wire? It would be a nightmare trying to run a new wire and it looks like there isn't enough slack to do a jbox.
It can be fixed.
Some will say, cut it and install two junction boxes with a jumper in between
Others will say, tape the black wire adequately and tape the sheath closed.
The first method would be the only approved, code compliant method.
If one end of it will reach to one of your other junction boxes you can use that as a box for the splice, then you only need to add one new box for the end that doesn't reach.
Or if one end is close enough to a fixture that you can pull a new wire just to that fixture, I would do that.
or use yer handydandy wire stretcher! i'd loan you mine, but i already loaned it to a friend along with my wood stretcher and he hasn't returned them yet.
Definately can't tape a the damaged part of the conductor's insulator. A tape repair can be made on the romex's white jacket however. Two junction boxes and a jumper is the best bet if you don't have enough slack.
The guy that did all this to you needs a country butt whoopin.
Can you tell where both ends of this wire end up? I'd replace the whole piece if feasible. :huh:
Otherwise, a Raychem splice kit might be one solution if you can't replace that piece of wire easily. :whistling2:
Find where it goes, check all junctions...I don't trust this guy.
It consists of heat-shrinkable tubing if my memory serves me.
If that is what you are referring to, it cannot be used in this situation. It is intended for underground splices, where chance of fire is minimal to none.
I second that :yes:
Yea, the guy needs to fix it.
Would you guys actually invite that hack back into your home to fix the work he screwed up in the first place? I wouldn't. He's obviously incapable of good work, and if he is somehow capable, he lacks a conscience.
A lawsuit or a small claims court claim would fit him perfectly.
I just think the courts are already tied up with Bull. If this incident was the worst he did, and he paid my money back, I wouldn't take it to the courts.
OK this is a question just for my curiosity: Can a insulated butt/crimp connector be used? That would allow just a clean cut strip each end slip connector in, crimp. Length of wire would be fine for that.
OK Now I will take the butt whuppin fer askin :}:}:eek:

Schelotto is indeed willing to come back to the Crew, but not for the $150,000 salary he earned last season. In standard MLS deals, as in most player contracts, the player's rights are bound to the club if it exercises an option. MLS options usually include an automatic 5 percent salary increase, which is the real sticking point.
The former Argentine international ranked fourth in MLS with 11 assists while serving some of the sweetest balls the league has seen.
He left Boca Juniors in good faith to re-start his career in a new country and perhaps believed his first season would be on a trial basis, with a new deal to be negotiated if both parties agreed he would come back.
Two-way options are rare, but in the case of a major European star heading to say, Qatar, he might indeed sign a two-year deal but would certainly want an escape clause if he couldn't handle the culture shock. Leaving Buenos Aires for central Ohio isn't quite as severe, yet it's a radical change he's handled well.
The Crew has some allocation money to play with, since it missed the playoffs again last season. But allocation money can be used to sign new player or re-sign a player currently on its roster, not simply top off a current deal, so to significantly bump up his salary and thus keep Schelotto happy, Columbus needs to dicker.

RE: array generated
That seems like a very reasonable request since it is a common problem. Here
is one approach. Write a routine that converts an "iterator" defined in
terms of the number of points into a normal iterator.
pointsiter[i_, min_, max_, numpoints_] := {i, min,
max, (max - min)/(numpoints - 1)}
Table[i, pointsiter[i, 2, 15, 6] // Evaluate]
{2, 23/5, 36/5, 49/5, 62/5, 15}
Table[i, pointsiter[i, -0.235, 2.654, 5] // Evaluate]
{-0.235, 0.48725, 1.2095, 1.93175, 2.654}
I don't know how to eliminate the need for Evaluate without changing the
Attributes of Table. Also with floating point values I am not certain if
Mathematica will always get the last point.

Green design and construction continue to gain momentum in the housing industry. Once niche fields, incorporating sustainability into the thought process of creating a custom home is now common practice. Increasingly homeowners feel that healthy, environmentally friendly, low-maintenance, and energy-efficient houses make for a better quality of life. This trend, coupled with the fact that sustainable design has become a popular marketing tool, means that a higher percentage of the entries into our annual Custom Home Design Awards (CHDA) program are green in some (or many) ways.
In the attached slideshow we highlight several past CHDA winners that make solar orientation, sustainable materials, and products a priority. These award-winning designs feature green attributes that often helped them make it through several elimination rounds to land in the final selection pile. Many of the projects use alternative energy sources such as solar or geothermal, some recycle rainwater runoff for irrigation, most take maximum advantage of free resources like daylighting and natural ventilation, and all use nontoxic, renewable, and durable materials, in compelling ways.
After viewing the slideshow, take a look back at your own work from the past five years and think about entering it into our 20th annual CHDA program. Register or get more information at chdesignawards.com

I don't know what you mean by "any program," but if you are referring to rehab programs in the general sense, there are some really great ones (so I'm told, no personal experience thank you), and some fairly awful ones run by "recovering" addicts who have had very little professional training. Scams abound; or so I've been told by folks who sometimes get messed up in these "programs."
It's great that so many are offering advice and information--the bottom line though is this guy stepped on his dick and is now exercising "selective memory".
If he's not eligible to own a firearm or legally carry, that's fine with me...

I did 21 years active, and NEVER heard of, or knew of, anyone who failed a pizz test a got a DD FOR JUST FAILING THE PIZZ test.
Now, if there were other charges along the way, like UA/AWOL, drug dealing, DUI, etc, that could tally up to a BCD or DD, but for just failing a dope test, I would think a Admin Discharge, or a General Discharge.
Also, depends on the service and what year, sometimes a branch of service will go hog wild on people with certain charges, just to make a point.
Really, he just needs to (A) come clean on the ENTIRE scenario and (B) find his DD-214, look at the bottom of it for the discharge, and maybe he characterization of that discharge (RE-1, RE-3, RE-4, etc).

Something sounds fishy. If he had received a Dishonorable Discharge, he'd know it. I'd think its highly unlikely that it is something that one would forget.
Just tell him not to ever lie on his paperwork because it is a felony to answer those questions falsely.

He probably received a General Discharge under honorable conditions.
That would not stop the issuance of a permit.
All I'm going to say is there are consequences for what we do in life. So many people fail to look ahead a few years down the road and then they are screwed.
I don't think there is any way he got a Dishonorable Discharge for a positive drug test. Tons of people get "processed for discharge" for drug test failures and receive a "General Discharge."
If he did in fact end up with a Dishonorable Discharge, it wasn't because of a drug test. A DD = No guns! So no, he would not be able to purchase a firearm.
Semper Fi
"The gun is the great equalizer... For it is the gun, that allows the meek to repel the monsters; Whom are bigger, stronger and without conscience, prey on those who without one, would surely perish."
For the purposes of gun laws, "dishonorable conditions" only applies to a Dishonorable Discharge - which anyone who got one would know without a doubt, since it requires conviction at a general Court Martial.
The other four types of discharges (honorable, General - under honorable conditons, General - other than honorable conditions, and Bad Conduct discharge) do not preclude someone from owning or purchasing a firearm.
In some states (such as NC) one must not have been discharged under "other than honorable conditions" for a concealed carry permit. The phrase "honorable conditions" refers to Honorable and General under honorable.
Dishonorable discharges are issued following a courts martial for a felony offense such as rape, murder, armed robbery, etc. You can be court martialed for any offense, but will usually receive a General discharge for a less serious charge. Not only would he be ineligible due to his discharge, but he would also be a convicted felon. He also probably spent time in Leavenworth or the equivalent.
"First gallant South Carolina nobly made the stand."
Edge of Darkness
I'm shaking my head, thinking back when I was in...20+ years before the OP's friend. If you couldn't keep your stuff together with the discipline we had, you have no business carrying a firearm in civilian life.
Treat me good, I'll treat you better. Treat me bad, I'll treat you worse.
I didnt read all 5 pages of replies, but if you got a dishonorable discharge, you would know it. I'd bet it was a general discharge.

This past July, I wrote a post titled "Technology needs to be more than a 'thread.' [2]" The post generated a fair amount of discussion. I have read everyone's comments, seen a few tweets, and even received a couple of emails. It would seem that technology in student affairs is an issue that we in the profession need to discuss at length.
In the "thread" post, I mentioned that technology cannot be a thread if the spool is empty. While I appreciate the concept that technology runs throughout all of the functional areas and competencies of student affairs, the technology threads have to come from somewhere.
When and where do student affairs professionals learn about technology? Is it in their graduate programs? Or perhaps at the occasional conference session? I know what you're thinking...you read this blog (and several other student affairs technology blogs [3]) to stay abreast of student affairs technology issues that are relevant to the profession. While I appreciate my readers (I love it when you comment!), I feel that student affairs folks need more. We need more publications that feature articles on innovative uses of technology within student affairs. We need the CAS Standards to list Technology as a functional area (Yes, I think it needs its own area). NASPA has a technology knowledge community. Are you a member? ACPA members are talking about trying to form a technology commission. We are generating some momentum.
The student affairs technology community is unique in that while we may be small in number, we are very loud about #SAtech (this is our hashtag, roar!). Knowledge of technology does not just appear out of thin air.
Threads can be used to weave amazing tapestries. I want to take a critical look at the spool. How do we fill our technology spools with knowledgeable and vibrant threads? Does it matter if we don't call it a competency? I have no issue with conceding the semantic front. Long live technology as a thread. Now, where do we go from here?

No. 15/17 Georgia Takes Series with 9-1 Win Over South Carolina
Highlights from Saturday's softball doubleheader against South Carolina where the Bulldogs split but won the series against the Gamecocks.
April 5, 2014
ATHENS, Ga. - The No. 15/17 Georgia softball team took the series against South Carolina in the second game of a doubleheader with a 9-1, five-inning win, on Saturday, April 5 at Jack Turner Stadium in Athens, Ga. With the win, the Bulldogs improved to 33-6 on the year and 8-4 in Southeastern Conference action. South Carolina dropped to 25-14 overall and 6-9 in league play. The win also marked the third SEC series that the Bulldogs have won this year.
Chelsea Wilkinson collected her 20th win of the year as she moved to 20-4 overall. She allowed just one run on one hit and three walks, while striking out four in the complete game performance. Julie Sarratt took the loss for the Gamecocks, giving up six runs on seven hits and two walks in three innings of work. South Carolina turned to Nickie Blue in the bottom of the fourth inning. Blue allowed three runs on two hits and three walks in 1.1 innings in the circle.
Tina Iosefa went 2-for-4 with four RBI and a run to lead the Bulldogs offensively. Highlighting Iosefa's day was a three-run home run in the bottom of the third. Bethany Beggs and Samantha LaZear also had solid outings, each going 2-for-3 on the day.
Georgia struck first, taking a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. With two outs, Kaylee Puailoa was hit by a pitch before Geri Ann Glasco walked to put two runners on for the Bulldogs. One batter later, Iosefa delivered a single to right center that allowed Puailoa to score the first run of the game.
The Bulldogs tacked on three more runs in the bottom of the third inning that extended its lead to 4-0. Puailoa got things started with a one out single second before Glasco drew her second walk of the day. With two on and one out, Iosefa took the first pitch she saw deep into the pines in right center for a three-run homerun that made it a 4-0 game. The homer was Iosefa's second the year.
Georgia made it a 6-0 game in the bottom of the fourth inning. LaZear laid down a perfectly execute slap hit that landed right in front of the batter's box, allowing her to beat the throw by the catcher for an infield single. After stealing second, LaZear crossed the plate on a double to left center by Alex Hugo that chased Sarratt from the circle in favor of Blue. After one out was recorded, Hugo moved to third on a wild pitch. With a runner at third and one out, Puailoa grounded out to second, allowing Hugo to score to put the Bulldogs up 6-0.
South Carolina got a run back in the top of the fifth inning to make it a 6-1 game. Olivia Lawrence drew a one out walk before Brooke Barnhill came in to pinch run. With Barnhill at second after a wild pitch, Blue hit a RBI-single to left that cut the lead to 6-1.
The Bulldogs plated three runs in the bottom of the fifth inning to seal the 9-1 win. Anna Swafford was hit by a pitch to start the inning and moved to second on a single to right by Beggs. Wilkinson hit into a fielder's choice that advanced both Beggs and Swafford. With one out and a runner at third, LaZear hit a chopper over the pitcher's head for an infield single that scored Swafford to make it a 7-1 game. After Hugo drew a five pitch walk, Paige Wilson grounded into a RBI fielder's choice that allowed Beggs to score the eighth run of the game. With the bases loaded, Puailoa walked in the ninth and final run of the game, sealing Georgia's 9-1, five-inning win.
Georgia returns to action on Wednesday, April 9 at 6 p.m., when it hosts USC Upstate in the final game of the current home stand.

$ 26.00
Infusion Time: 3 mins
Caffeine Level: Light
Origin: Blend
For years, we worked to develop this tea, and we are proud to offer it to you now as one of our gourmet signature blends. It is a full, rich balance of steamed Japanese bancha and three types of hand-cut vanilla beans from Madagascar, Tahiti and Indonesia. Extreme notes of caramel richness, vanilla bean, vanilla-infused cream and dulce de leche are set off by bancha's mellower flavors of roasted chestnut, almond and vegetal sweetness. The aftertaste is, not surprisingly, one of pure vanilla bean. This tea is a smooth, fantastically decadent "dessert blend" on its own. Extreme Vanilla is a must for all vanilla lovers!
This tea is certified USDA Organic.

2 must try starters here: Apple Chicken (It's not sweet) and Canton Wantons (10 wantons in a portion). Also, the sizzling chicken isn't that bad. Main course, without a doubt, their Burnt Chilli Rice is the best with fish in black bean sauce and if you like coconut based rice, do try the Malaysian rice. It's delicious!

Most innovative chinese dish ive ever had
Having heard a lot about the place I tried it out for a weekday lunch.The location is not great and the a great drain which is the size of a small river flowing just beside it dosent help its cause either. However as you step inside its better. The ambience is pleasing but not exceptional , although i could not point it out the overall feeling was of it being unclean and untidy perhaps it was the symmetry perhaps the color combination .We decided to attack the food directly and had 4 dishes. Spring rolls,chicken dragon balls, Burnt garlic fried rice & exoitic veggies in basil and wine .We also ordered a cocktail. The disappointment were the spring rolls which were too broad,too filled and soggy. They were dripping with oil and could have given any delhi road side chola bhatura a run for its money in terms of oil content. But that is where the disappointment ended.The burnt garlic rice were one of the best chinese rice i have had as i am a noodle lover and rice dosent impress me unless its really good. This one did. The innovative part about it was the crispy deep fried onion which were mixed alongside the rice which added that slight crunch to it. The rice were not too spicy and yet hot . The chicken dragon balls i was told were exceptional as well , the chicken was soft and the flavor balanced. But the dish of the evening was the main course- Exotic veggies in basil and red wine. It was one of the most innovative chinese dishes i have had in a long time. They had mixed the chinese sauces and reduced them alongside some red wine . The end result was a dish which i feel was the perfect fusion . The spicy chinese balanced the red wine aftertaste superbly and along with the rice it was a combination par excellence. The portion sizes are huge ....one main course and one noodles is more than enough for two couples or 3 guys . The cocktail that we ordered was a khus cocktail which was another pleasant surprise. They cut the sweetness of khus with lime and balanced both with apt amount of vodka. The quantity of vodka was huge too . Overall 5 spice is on the top of my list for one of the most innovative chinese dishes i have tasted.

Indian Chinese zindabad!
This being the nearest 5 spice for people living in Ghatkopar! Near a 100% commercial area this outlet is never empty. Lunch or dinner you would always have people coming in to have their famous kim chu. None the less 5 spice being far from where i live i always make it a point of visiting it once-twice a month. Lets start with the starters they have superb panner made in house. The panner chilly and the crispy corn water chestnuts are to die for. The paneer melts in your mouth. Virgin mojito is also a great. Paneer Pot rice/ Vegetable pot rice is the staple food you cant miss if you are in 5 spice. Their portions are large and you can never complaint about that. To end it you cant complaint either with 'Mission Impossible' their signature dessert. Its basically a three tier pastry with mousse and chocolate gathered to bake a cake. It is served with vanilla icecream and you need 5-6 people to complete it. All in all its a superb experience.

5 spice taste maintained, quality a bit of issue
We visited as a large group at 7pm on a weekday. Given the time and current occupancy, we would have expected quicker service. The food was all good, except that there was a fly in the rice that put people off, and we didn't order anything beyond that. However, folks came back to life when the Rocky Roads arrived; perfect 5 spice taste.

Served Non-veg for Veg food
I had always thought of 5 Spice to be a place where you can get good quantity of Chinese food for fair price but with my last order to their Sakinaka Restaurant it all vanished. I ordered total veg food for 9 people on 31st as i had many guest visiting our place and received the food in 1 hour 30 minutes. There were 2 items missing from the food and there was another item which we didn't order was included seemed like veg fried rice. Though there was one item missing we still started eating the food, as we were eating the food someone who is familiar with Non veg food suggested that the rice we were eating was chicken rice which was mistakenly included in our food. All of us really felt almost sick as we don't eat non-veg food except for the person who pointed out that it was rather chicken fried rice. We called up the restaurant but they just kept apologizing for the mistake, after few times of complaining from my end they put me to the manager Ravindra and he also though apologized but kept on saying that he can't do anything beyond that. The manager though sent the missing item in some time but these people have no sense of responsibility that the least level of caution that they need to maintain is at-least not hurting people's sentiments. Not serving good food is one thing but serving non-veg for veg is something unforgivable. I am not going to leave them like these but i request people to seriously reconsider if you are planning to order food from them.

I am frequent to five spice as I like their food very much. Hence I ended up as choice for dinner here as well. The place is warm and welcoming. Ambience is good and service is also good. The ordered items were quickly brought to the table and water glasses filled after every interval.

Quantity matters! Delicious Chinese food eatery
This place is located adjacent to McD of Sakinaka Junction.
This is one of the finest restaurant I had awesome Chinese cuisines.
We were a group of 6 guys went for dinner (1st week of Oct'12) and we had ordered: Dragon Chicken, Crispy Chicken,Red chilly Paneer and Fish Chili Basil as starters and in main course we had 5Spice chicken along with one Burnt Chilly Rice(prawns) and Thai Pot Rice along with Red Hot Dragon Paneer.
I tell you we were utterly surprised and delighted by the quantity and size of portions, its enormous. The quantity is well matched with quality too. I fell in love with the taste of Burnt Chili Rice which was the star attraction.
The restaurant is primarily divided into ground floor and basement with fine touch of classy ambiance. the staffs are courteous, prompt and ready to help out.
The service is also good.
I had Chinese food a zillion of times from different eatery still I think it is very good in maintaining their quality and quantity consistently.
Dont miss out Mission Impossible and Choco Brownie with Icecream in desserts.
Highly recommended for guys who appreciate good Chinese food.
If you are throwing a party or treat, this is the best eatery with enormous portions and per serving quantity is on a very higher side.

Decent Chinese affair
We were working this weekend and calling for some lunch is like a pre-requisite for doing so. We Mumbaikars always crave for some good Chinese food in monsoon and finding a good restaurant that serve some decent Chinese is a little hard to find. Luckily, the tried and tasted 5 spice delivers in my office area.
We went for a different menu than the regular choices and were left satisfied and burping in the end. What all we ordered? Here's the list and what our stomachs felt.
Red Chilly Pepper Paneer: Ok!!! we have eaten many starter dishes with Paneer in it, but this was surprisingly different. Needless to say, it had the Chinese touch to it, but enjoyed this one with all the fingers. The Red Chilly sauce with Pepper infused all the flavors perfectly in the soft Paneer. A great combination of all the ingredients used. Thumbs Up!!!
Roast Cantonese Chicken: Unanimously, this was the show stopper of our lunch today. The Chicken, cooked beautifully in the spicy sauce and in no time was the cynosure of every taste buds around. Double Thumbs Up!!!! Highly recommended.
Veg Korean Fried Rice: We thought of ordering some rice from a different country this time, considering we have tried Singapore, Hong-Kong, Malaysia etc before. Nothing disappointing about this dish, but can be avoided. It was just some rice cooked in vegetables with a tangy flavour to it.
Chicken Fortune Rice: I had heard about this dish from a lot of people, forums, blogs and recommended this time to others. "Fortunate"ly, it turned out to be the same as mentioned everywhere. A good mixture of rice with a nice chicken gravy to go with it. The gravy helps to raise the dish and keeps it away from drying out.
Veg Malaysian Rice: It was a very bland tasting preparation of rice in a Green Curry based sauce. Nothing like what they serve the other rice preps with. There seems to be too much of uncooked grass in it. Not recommended.
Overall, a great lunch and worth the money. We were even lucky to have the order delivered in time, because we were just dying of hunger.

Stadards are falling
5 Spice used to be a good place to hang out, but i guess if your visiting the restaurant be greeted by the most oathetic service staff you will meet in Mumbai. I really donno whats gone wrong. Apart from being VFM this place is now beginning to go downhill. I was utterly dissapointed by their service, foods also just "OK", These guys have a tremondously loyal customer base, but they need some serious thought to maintain quality,

Need to spruce up their delivery
we nearly went off 5Spice,we were looking for placing take-away order.we were shuttled between numbers where either they would not pick up the call/give other branch numbers.
Finally somehow got through .Opted for the Red chilly pepper paneer which was the perfect blend of spices & well marinated paneer.The red pepper chicken starter somehow paled in comparison to the veg one.
The Veg Schezwan rice was a tad bland ,the Veg Manchurian was slightly watery,just average.The Chicken S'pore rice was well done.
The rice portions were generous so was the chicken starter.

Revised review: Utterly pathetic
Been there a month back, and hopefully thats the last time I will ever go. The standards have dropped to dismal levels. There is no constitency in the food but whats worse is the utterly gross service. The waiter serving us got our orders wrong for all 3 courses, starters, main course and desserts. He was insolent about all the goof ups.. When my husband asked for the manager at the end of the meal, he was told he will be there in a moment. After waiting for 15 minutes, when we again asked the waiter, his reply was "Bolana aa raha hai. Wait karo". This is when we lost it. We left only after we had an apology letter from the manager. Its works a reminder tfor us to never think of 5 Spice again

Utter Callousness
It was my Birthday yesterday (18th Dec) and we were planning to have dinner at 5 Spice since quite some time. So yesterday I took my family to 5 Spice Sakinaka and i was very much disappointed.
My kids love veg fried rice and manchurian and so I ordered for a fried rice and Veg manchurian in sauce for them. The waiter had repeated the order 'VEG MANCHURIAN GRAVY'. When the manchurian arrived, it had very less of sauce in it and the manchurian dumplings were very chewy. The meal was becoming too dry for my kids, so I asked the waiter to get some more gravy. Nothing happened for some 5-10 mins and I repeated that I wanted some gravy. At that time, the captain arrived at our table and informed that they do not serve gravy separately. I was quite surprised because I have had Chinese food in several top restaurants and I remember at least 2-3 such instances and I have been presented with a bowl full of extra gravy very gladly by the restaurant. However, at 5 spice I was refused and I said OK, you can charge me for the gravy. To this the captain had the audacity to tell me that he will charge for the full dish even tough i just want the gravy! I didn't want to ruin my kids evening so I said OK fine whatever. And I made it very obvious to the captain that I did not like what he said. To my utter dismay, when I was presented the bill (Bill no F-168) I was charged for 2 Veg manchurian in Sauce! Mind you, this restaurant is not cheap, Manchurian costs Rs.245 + Tax and I surely expected them to give me some extra gravy at no charge or at nominal charge. But it is quite ridiculous that they charge me for a full plate for just the gravy. I think this restaurant needs some heart. I have vowed not to go to this place again and will inform the people I know that they can also avoid going to such a heartless restaurant.

The Best in Indian Chinese
Have been wanting to review the restaurant as I have been a frequent patron but it was only a horrible Indian Chinese experience at some other restaurant that had sorely reminded me of good old 5Spice. As they - it is difficult to appreciate the good in absence of the bad.
5Spice has been my favorite takeaway place for Indian Chinese -- have tried many dishes and have always been satisfied. the favorite being Veg Burnt Chilly Rice with either Paneer in Sapo Sauce or the Prawns in Chilly Oyster Sauce. And my bill with 2 rice and 2 gravy dishes was always below INR 600.
Must say that it is one of the few places - who have mastered the trio:
Quality - The taste is amazing and rice they use is of great quality
Quantity - No comments as anyone who has eaten there would attest
Price - Absolutely no competition here considering that they are top notch in quality and quantity

Pathetic - In one word !
The last review posted is true ! The staff & the restaurant to an extend that even if the order for 2 people is late for 1.5 hrs & you call back the staff all you would hear in a rude & arrogant tone is "aisa hi hai sir...humari delivery is 2 hrs..apka toh 1.5 hr hua hai"
Even if I take a rick n go there, place a order & come back it would not take me more than 40 min (including buffer). I have no idea how do they still continue to run with such a service level. To add, the food was all cold (obviously due to late delivery) and it tasted really bad. It was as if someone had prepared it in a hurry..the quality of chicken was also quite bad. It seemed they had kept it since a week & re-heated it...I would agree with all the bad review's for this outlet as they continue to live up to the (bad) standards & more than that..they are proud of it & throw arrogance at customers who order ! Do I even dare to visit them...is the real question

Lackadaisical attaitude.
i have always been a fan of 5 spice u last few times this place has horribly let me down.
1) on busy days or hours they recommend us to send our delivery person so that they can prepare and give us the food and wont take 2 hrs to deliver-i appreciate tht part-. unfortunately in spite of sending my delivery boy they made him wait for 1.5 hrs to deliver a decent sized meal for 5 people.
2) The food delivered dint have salt at all. when we got in touch with them for the goof up they give a lame reply like they were lot of orders and people waiting at the restaurant so this must have happened.
3) some dishes which is usually not so spicy was way too spicy and vice versa
4) They have an attitude problem. their offer is ''we will offer you some shit complementary dessert on your next order' '
you think ill bother ordering from this slow painfully long horrible restaurant.
5) This restaurant is worth it on weekdays/ non festival days and weekends/ dining.

Should be renamed to 5 Salt
The food is bloody awful. The Tom Yum soup was rasam with chicken :). And rest of the food had so much salt, it didn't matter what we ordered, it all tasted the same. Yeah the portions are huge. But that's pretty useless when the food is this bad.
Honestly, they weren't this bad before. But know it's just a disaster.

Good Food
Best Chinese i had so far....This place deserves a 5-star solely on the amount they serve and Quality they serve
Rocky road dessert is massive like all other dishes (pile of chocolate, cake, icecream)
Service is not that great so we they definately have to improve on service part.. Bandra is bestest among all the 5ce spice...

Best Chinese... its gotta be 5 Spice
I have been a regular visitor to this place, and they never disappointed me with the food. Awesome, Yummy and just perfect kind of Chinese is what they prepare.
Right from starters, main course, veg and non veg, they got it all perfect.
I have been to Fort and Sakinaka outlets.
And I have taken my family, friends from other cities, relatives. All I got after coming out was lots of appreciation for selecting this place.
The only reason I deducted 1 star is the seating arrangement.
While fort one is little cramped, the basement section at Sakinaka is not well maintained.
But You can avoid all these small glitches once you get lost in food.
5 Spice- You guys rock man.

Never again!!!
almost after a year since my last awful experience with 5Spice, i did my life's biggest blunder by walking in again.. atleast I should have taken the lack of waiting crowd as a warning, that this place has lost it completely!!! last time it was hair in the noodles, cracked n chipped plates and no one to serve us.. this time the food was the hosts choice, with no regard what so ever to our preferences or order placed by us!! apologies, don even expect one from the waiter who was struggling to read out whats printed on the menu card!!! thought Bandra might be better than Goregaon, but i was proved completely wrong.. peach ice tea still remains good, thankfully.. but dats not gonna drag me in 5spice again!!!

This is one place which will always live up to the standard, not only would you be content with the taste n qaulity but also with price & quantity, whatever you do dont miss out on the Godlike dessert (rocky road), you would need to book it at the start of you meal as it invariably get over just too quickly....(Viv)

Can do better
This is one joint I would have loved to rate a 4 on 5 purely for the food quality & the serving potions!!
They lose out big time on the service front...Although I visit this place very often I feel the service of a roadside dhaba is better at times. On weekends consider yourself lucky if they deliver the takeaways on time....
However the food is pretty decent ...try out their crispy corn with chestnut, chicken in barbeque sauce, chopsueys...quite good
I hope and wish they read this review and improve their service .....

Good but has its weak points
I have been a fan of the food and the portions they serve. From our office too we keep ordering food from here now and then. But recently I've come across hygiene issues there. I heard from many people about instances of strands of hair in their food and about a month back I too discovered a strand in my dish. We showed it to the management and they offered a free piece of cake to us which was again delicious. But we came back with seriour reservations about visiting the place again. I'll miss its tasty food.

Service Issue
Today, we ordered food for 12 persons for Diwali celebration from 5 spice (for delivery in our office ) at around 12.15 PM, the guy told that it would be delivered in 50 minutes. but the food was not delivered till 2.15 PM....
We were continueously trying to get in touch with them on listed phone numbers. but were not able to contact. the phone was continueosy busy / not answered.
Finally, we had to go to our office canteen & order for snax....
When we were about to finish the snax the delivery boy came with the food.
We had no option to return the same.

Authentic Continental Food
Being a regular visitors of 5 spice of Bandra, I am now also addicted to 5 Spice at Saki Naka. This place wins at every point, be it food quality and quantity , ambience, service. Let me walk through the menu of the place:
Starters: Try Potato Starter, Mushroom Paneer Babycorn Dish, all of them are very good. Soups are very bad except Veg Munchow Soup
Main Course: In Rice - try Veg/Paneer Pot Rice (My Favourite), Chilli Burnt Rice, Pecking Rice or Nanking Rice (Combo or Rice and Noodles). In noodles you can try anything except the flat noodles.
Desserts: Desserts have been a popularity at this place and I think they know this very well So they have increased their price of dish from 165/- to 200/- since the past 15 days. Dont know this is the effect of inflation or their growing popularity in the area.
Try Rocky Road, Mission Impossible, Cheese Cakes, Chocolate Pastries, each one better than all the other in the menu.
You can also try Eggless cakes from here on birthdays Death By Chocolate Cake is mind blowing guys.
On the first look the price is on the heavier side, but trust me any dish listed in the menu card cannot be finished alone by a single person. An average meal for 2 heavy eaters and 3 moderate eaters will be around 600/- (Including starters, main course and desserts)
Ambience: 8/10
Service: 8/10
Food: 9/10
An advice to the management: Don't take the popularity of the place as an excuse to raise the price of items.. Cheers!!

Well visited this place just now and I am writing this review.
This place is just too goo and the food is delicious .
The 5-spice soup is really spicy and good
We started with "kung pao chicken and "paneer mushroom babycorn fu - stly". It was just finger licking good.
Mid Way with a nice mongolian Pot rice which was very authentic in taste with black mushrooms and zucchini.
And ended up nice brownie with hot chocolate sauce and vanilla ice cream
The whole meals very just scrumptious and hugh in quantity. Ambiance is descent and relaxing and VALUES FOR MONEY as well !!!

Gourmand's Delight
One of my favourite places.
Do try the Cantonese lamb, chicken in red chillies and this weird sounding chicken that was sweetish and had cashewnuts in it (kung pao or something). And they have this melt in the mouth veg starter. Forgot what its named but its this golden fried crust with a corn filling inside that's unbelievable. And the fried garlic prawns are to die for! They have this perfect blend of well fried garlic and this sweetish tinge all in a mouthful.
Main course I would recommend burnt chilly garlic rice. And any gravy (all are decent).
And much as you'd definitely stuff your face, do make sure you reserve some space for the desserts. These guys make the best gooey chocolate cake. The mud cake's awesome. So is the creamy Cheesecake. They have baked cheesecake as well as the... erm... non baked one? Blueberry and strawberry. Both Fantastic! All desserts are good, I cant pick a favourite!
The best thing about the this place is the quantities. Very generous indeed! I would definitely recommend it for a birthday treat or a large party affair, as the price, quantity and taste do justice to each other (very rare).
Only drawback is that they don't accept cards if you just go to get a piece of cake at the dessert counter outside.
Apart from that, it's splendid.

A good option for Indo-chinese fare!!
Me and my wife visited this place after I read some comparatively positive reviews of the place out here..
Well- the place has been done up modestly and we were guided to a dining area in the basement which kinda smells of Chinese food (in a good sense thou :))
In keeping with the other reviews, even we found the quantities of the meal served quite good...3 hungry guys can stuff themselves with a 3 course-meal of 1 starters, a rice/noodles and a curry dish followed by the desserts...
Since we were just the 2 of us, we skipped the starters and digged in straight to the main course (Spicy Fried Rice and Chicken Hunan)
Just one downer- the waiter was not too much of a help when we asked him for medium spicy curry options..Chicken Hunan was a bit sweet in taste...
Even the beverages they serve are good in quantity...
I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking to stuff yourself over an indo-chinese meal...

(5star+1star)divided by 2 = 3Star
Scene 1: Ordered paper blasted lamb with schezwan noodles and some veg stuff for collegues and it almost blasted us out of the orbit. Home (or should i say office) delivered to feed future night outers in the group. The group was successfully revived to carry out through the night with heavenly taste of the lamb and noodles lingering on the tongue. Sumptous quantity and great taste makes for a 5star rating.
Scene 2: Home ordered just 2 starters to help tide over the midnight hunger. The delivery was successful in ordering at midnight but everything else was a disaster. From veg spring rolls to Veg. Schezwan fingers (dry). The prices that we didnt care for first time pinched us really hard as if to make us come out of the earlier dream of 5 spice experience. The quantities ironically were too much but we felt no remorse in throwing them to the abyss of our dustbin (where they rightly deserved to be). Hunger is the best sauce and i wish i could have just passed my night with that sauce only.
Overall by simple average the rating is 3. Dont be comfused just avoid starters :D

Great Place to give a treat to family and friends
Scenario - You have a group of people in your office pestering you for treat. You don't want to spend too much but you also want to impress your boss/potential girlfriend by taking them out to a great place. Enter 5 Spice
This place is one of the most VFM places you would find in Mumbai
Ambience - Minimalistic but classy decor. Nice lighting. wide tables for big groups. Little loud at times.
Food - This place is known for its portions. I am going out on the limb here but I can say for sure that one bowl of rice is going to satisfy 3 hungry people or 4 people who have eaten starters and soup. I recommend the following dishes (you can choose veg/non veg in each selection):
Starters - Schezwan fingers
Soup - 5 spice soup
Rice - Mangolian Pot Rice and nanking rice
Noodles - Pan fried noodles and Hakka
Dessert - Death by chocolate (Cold chocolate ice cream and chocolate brownie with hot chocolate sauce on top)
9 of us went to 5 spice and ordered 5 soups, 6 starters, 2 rice, 2 gravy and 4 desserts. The bill was less than Rs 2200/-.
One note of caution. If you are taking your girlfriend out for dinner, this place is not for you as the place is too loud and the portions are too much for 2 people to eat. Please bring atleast 4 very hungry people to really enjoy this place.

slurrp it off
Five Spice-
Food - It's a good reason to drive you back here all the time. I love everything i have eaten here.Burnt Chilli Rice/ Shanghai Fish or something/ Pepper Chicken are the few names i recall, but all of them have been superb.
Quantity - They're known for their quantity, but I somehow feel that the portion served for the appetizers are lesser than the other 5 Spice outlets I have dined at, but never the less. The portions for the nice / noodles are humongous. Pretty difficult to get it down your throat after a soup and a few starters .
Service : They are pretty cordial and they're own their toes all the time. The food doesn't take too long to arrive.
Ambiance - It's strictly okay, not that it is not well done, but it's very bland, just white washed walls with steel frames on the walls, nothing very extraordinary.
Dessert : Chocolate Brownie is heavenly, and it tastes even better with Vanilla ice cream!
Overall - It's a good place to binge on some good(fattening) chinese food once in a while.

Wonderful...feels authentic chinese
I haven't tried out the other branches at oshiwara and bandra, so would not run into compare, but for me this was a bliss.
I went there during the noon for lunch and was not planning for anything heavy. The outside look doesn't give an feel of what's at inside but that how i like the surpirses :)
The ambience is perfect the place looked quite though it had a good amount of people which really felt nice. Then running through the menu for a while I decided to go for veggie pot rice + rosted chilly chicken ( I am not a veggie but it was for my company ;) ).
Time of serving was fine and the quantity was more then enough (thinking of 2 persons). The rice pot came in heavy for we 2 (finally packed the left over).
Coming to the quality of food, this was the first time for me and I haven't tried everything out there, but let me tell you it will be great. What I had was absolutely authentic chinese.
Quality: great
Quantity: great
Pricing: reasonable
Serving time: fine
service: nice and decent
variety: abundant for veg and non-veg
I will definitly like to go there again.

Good to have it close to my place
I have tried both the options for this, going to the restaurant and ordering at home.
First when i went to the restaurant, i felt the food was bit oily(wrote that in the feedback also). Next when i ordered, the oil content was low in the dishes. Guess they learned from the feedback and reviews here.
The ambience is good. I was really happy to know 5spice so close to my place.
The service is good and prompt.
The quantities they serve are huge. Remember that while ordering.
Ofcourse the place doesnt have the same appeal as that of Bandra, but a better and VFM option in the place.
With Mainland china on the opposite end, its like 2 main chinese joints opposite each other.
The 5spice noodles and burnt chilli rice are really yumm. Also Kung-pao potatoes are one of my favourites.
Well, more than me, my sister was happy to know that 5spice has opened close to my place. When she was in mumbai, she dragged me to 5spice bandra so many times....
Now i have to take parcel for her whenever i go to my home town.
And 5spice people if you reading this, she is offering an outlet in Indore, and believe me you will have a great business there...as indore ppl are very foodie... ;-)
The chinese is really good at 5spice....everyone should definitely go.

only 3 spice for the sakinaka outlet
Yesterday I visited 5 spice sakinaka outlet along with one of my colleague , was really excited to visit this place because the bandra outlet has always lived upto the expectation.
The moment I entered 5 spice I somehow missed the buzz that we have in the bandra outlet.This outlet was too silent for a 5 spice joint.
I started with my favourite at 5 spice THE Kimchi (This is awesome) had plenty of it.Then I called the waiter and told him to refill the kimchi for me,but he wasnt able to understand what I was asking for finally he asked me "sir do u mean cabbage?" and yah I said,cabbage only.Comeon you should know the names of the food where you and working calling Kimchi as cabbage doesnt do justice to it.
Then we ordered Chicken Peking soup..which was not at all good and was tasteless so guys please avoid this.
After that we ordered for apple chicken it was good but not the best, I have tasted a better apple chicken at Maharaja restaurant in chakala.The quantity was nice and it was an average dish.
I had no room for anything more and was all ready to call in the cheque but then I remembered the best thing to have at 5 spice "Blueberry cheese cake".wow it was yummy and delicious as ever.This is the reason for the 3rd star that I have given to 5 spice.
Total damage done = Rs 445(1 chicken peking soup+1 apple chicken+ 1 blueberry cheese cake)
Guys if you happen to visit 5 spice please dont miss the opportunity of having a blueberry cheese cake.In the bandra outlet we have to book the cheese cake in advance as they get over very soon.

Stay Away...Don't Go. Its a disaster
While this is the same 5 Spice chain with other restaurants in FOrt, Bandra W and Oshiwara, their new one in Sakinanka is a disaster! Please don't go, you will repent and its no comparison to Mainland China which is right opposite.
The decor is good, they have a cool sit out for deserts which I really liked and once you enter the place still smells of the paint which is not a bad thing as it happens everywhere.
The menu is vast which is the same, just like Bandra W and Fort but the captain and the servers are really dumb and can fustrate you. We asked them to recomend some spicy chicken starter and they recomend Honey Chicken. That's how dumb they are....
The service is really fast but the once the food arrived, everything we ordered was soaking in oil. I've never ever seen so much oil used in chinese cusinie and that blew my appetite. I just did not eat! Our order was a portion of chilli chicken roast, pan fired chilli fish, steamed wontons and a portion of crispy chiili which was below average.
Since, our appetite was spoilt with all the oil, we decided to just do mains to fill our stomach and go home so we did not try anything fancy and just ordered a portion of American chopsuey. 5 Spice has always been famous for their potions in the main course and this one was the same.
Ate a but just to get some food into our system and left.
Never again, and please do not ever compare Mainland China to this place. Mainland is a class apart. But I will definately vist the 5 Spice at fort and bandra and even though I reside in powai.

A total of 323,750 shares - worth some £2.11m - that Mr Darroch received under BSkyB's Long Term Incentive Plan in August 2004 and November 2005 became eligible to be exercised yesterday.
Mr Darroch made the decision to dispose of 263,750 shares at 653.42p - netting him £1.72m. A significant portion of the money received will cover tax liabilities.
He has retained 60,000 shares as a personal interest in the company.
Mr Darroch's move comes three days after BSkyB chief executive James Murdoch received a cash payout of almost £4m relating to the vesting of shares for the same period under the LTIP programme.
His £3.91m cash sum comes on top of the near-£3m remuneration package Mr Murdoch received for the year to the end of June, as stated in BSkyB's annual report last month.
The LTIP shares for both executives became eligible to be vested following the achievement of a number of operational targets relating to earnings per share, subscriber growth and free cashflow growth.

It's like, bitchin' good man, a real spiritual transference of the character... to real life.
Now... can you make any money from doing this? Hope next Halloween, you get some pricey commissions from the folks in your hood!
I really appreciate that man!
You know, I never even thought of making some of these up for friends or for commission, that is something I'm going to have to seriously consider. A great idea!
