Purple Cafe and Wine Bar - Seattle Ratings and Reviews
Purple is one of our favourite places to have lunch before a play or a visit to the Seattle Art Museum. Our last visit was unusual because it was not as good. My Berkshire Stew was great but my wife's Crab Roll should have been named a Celery Roll due to the lack of crab. The place was packed with the lunch crowd but even then our service was unusually slow. Still a great place to eat inspite of a disappointing g visit.
Purple was great, I really appreciated the wine list being so diverse and affordable. They have a lovely Cote du Rhône selection which can be rare to find where I live in California so it was greatly appreciated. Also having the wine director there to do wine service was a nice touch.
Made a reservation through OpenTable. Showed up to no reservation in PURPLE system. Hostess said she had no res. and showed me her screen. She was abrupt and had no time for me in resolving. She brushed past me to seat other guests. When she came back instead of going around me as she easily could have to her station, she asked me to move aside. As the person I was waiting for hadn't arrived yet I called The Capital Grille (across the street) and they quickly, politely and efficiently took my reservation. When hostess heard my call she THEN said, "We can seat you upstairs." This now AFTER THE FACT and only when she heard me on the phone with another restaurant. She could have offered the solution of a table upstairs at the beginning not after my call to another restaurant. I even showed her my OpenTable confirmation. Will NOT go to Purple in the future! SERVICE is as important as food and ambiance in dining out!
Almost all the food we ate was salty. We had chicken, calamari and halibut. Way to much salt on all of the items. Almost all of the calamari was returned uneaten. We ate about half the chicken but very salty. The waiter was great and gave us good service. He brought us a free desert for all the issues we had. I wouldn't recommend going there for the price of the meals, I would expect them to not be salty.
Good downtown location for pre or post theater, our waiter was very friendly however we had to wait a long time to get our food and then
to pay our bill. The food was not what I expected and the wine is overpriced. I will try another restaurant the next time we go to the theater.
Had a great time, thanks to the waitress. Her recommendations were on point, for both food and drinks (wine). Was however severely disappointed with the quality of service received when we came in (hostess stand).
Will return back whenever am in Seattle, just for the ambiance and food.
Positive experience. The place is beautiful and classy. I love the wine tower!! Our waitress was awesome, but I would've liked a little more attention at the beginning of the night. The hostess was awesome. I said we were celebrating a special occasion on my reservation and she asked us about it and I thought that was nice and attentive. I really liked my meal, my friends were a little pickier and didn't like it as much. My friend said the gluten free pasta wasn't very flavorful. But overall we had a wonderful time and I think we would come back. It was fun and I like the energy of the place a lot. It cool, clean, classy, and fun. They have lots of tables too!
We had :30 reservations before a 7:30 show. Due to weather we were runnimg quite late so we called and notified the front desk. We arrived about 5:55 and the place was packed on a Thursday night. We were seated right away and told our waiter we had a show to catch and he said if we made quick decisions he would make it happen and he did. A couple of us ordered from the Restaurant week menu and a couple from the regular menu. The food was all very good with kudos for the calamari and the lamb burger. We were out by 7:15 so we were pretty happy with how it went. Next time we will arrive on time so we can linger. All in all a very good experience
I'd made a reservation for dinner as I was taking a friend to the Opera. The first annoyance for me occured when the hostess says to me: "wow, you're dressed up!". I wasn't. I was dressed the way I dressed daily. I told my friend when she arrived. My friend remarked: "guess they're not accustomed to seeing a black woman so well put together, what an ignorant girl." That hostess who seated me made me very uncomfortable.
Water: I'd forgotten my reading glasses so couldn't see the menu. From the onset our waiter seemed rushed and annoyed. I say to him "I don't have my reading glasses, so I'll just take the first red wine on list". It was as if I was speaking Klingon, he asks me to confirm the wine name. I say again, I don't have my reading glasses, I can barely see anything". My friend then asks which of the white wines would be the sweetest. He didn't seem to know,. I then ask him what the driest red would be. He didn't seem to know and directed me to the white. My friend says. "no, no, no.. she doesn't drink white.. girl just stick with what you ordered". He goes to get our wines.
When he returns he tells us if we want to get out at 7pm we need to order now, the kitchen is busy. I was awkward. I didn't even realize it was Seattle Restaurant week until we sat down, had I known that NO WAY would I have come. My friend helped me select an entree from the small menu since I couldn't see and we were being rushed. I asked for a small salad, it was quite off-putting how the waiter says to me "thats not on that menu you have to pay extra".. I say to him "I can afford it". I was appalled. When he comes to pick up our checks he glares at me and says "you didn't sign your check". I say, yes, I did. He says "no, you didn't". It was my (white) friend who didn't sign her check as she signed the wrong receipt. Seriously dude? You instantly assume the black chick didn't sign her check and call her out on it rudely? WTF? NEVER EVER AGAIN will I set foot in Purple.

Episode Summary: Madoka is again to cook curry for Kazuhito, much to his fright. But after sniffing Madoka's cooking, Kazuhito felt at ease for the time being until he found out that Madoka is actually cooking a blue-colored curry and escapes to Honda Booksellers. There, Kazuhito came to admire Sakura's way of satisfying her costumers by supplying them with books of their tastes. Suddenly, Maxi's men appear and purchased all of Momiji Himehagi and Shinobu Akiyama's book from the bookstore. Afterwards Kazuhito is again chased by the singing maid, Moribe Sachi, who also serves Momiji Himehagi. Kirihime then appears to shield Kazuhito and as they prepare to fight, Maxi interferes by challenging Kirihime in a legendary writing contest known as a 'Nine Story Tower Writing Contest'. However, Maxi is again dragged by his men and their contest is cancelled, much to Kazuhito's dismay. Later, at the bookstore, Hami notifies Sakura that she had made an important decision as an author, as well as Madoka's enrollment to the formers' school and adds that she will continue the legacy of his late brother. Proud of his sister's development, Kazuhito agrees to eat Madoka's curry nevertheless. In the end, Kazuhito forced himself to eat Madoka's rainbow-colored curry.

Thangboi Singto made a couple of changes to his line-up that lost 2-1 against East Bengal as Cornell Glen returned to the starting line-up along with Wailadmi Passah as Jeevan Singh and Seikhohao Tuboi were left out.
On the other hand, Ashley Westwood also made a couple of changes to his side that won 3-1 against United Sports in the last match as Vishal Kumar and Beikhokhei Beingaichho walked into the starting eleven with Keegan Pereira and Robin Singh making ways for them. Rino Anto was shifted to an unorthodox left-back position while Vishal Kumar started as the right-back.
It was a slow start to the game as neither side managed to dominate the proceedings. However, it was Lajong who got the first clear chance of the match in the 17th minute, after Glen's powerful left-footer was saved by Pawan Kumar and the ball fell to Boithang Haokip in the box. The Lajong midfielder attempted a shot, but the ball was cleared from the goal-mouth by a Bengaluru defender.
The Blues had their first opportunity only in the 42nd minute, when John Menyongar pulled the trigger from distance after a good build-up from the midfield. However, the Liberian found himself unlucky as his shot rattled the horizontal.
Bengaluru created another good move at the stroke of the half-time after Anto went on a marauding run down the left and sent a brilliant cross for Rooney, who was standing just outside the box. The Australian striker couldn't time his shot well and the ball went over the bar.
After the break, Lajong showed renewed vigour and they were rewarded for their efforts in the 46th minute. Son had spotted Glen on the right and the former Jamaican international controlled the ball and fed Uilliams Bomfim inside the box. The Brazilian striker had to negotiate an uneven bounce but managed it well and to slot it into the net to draw first blood.
Glen showed glimpses of his class again in the 66th minute, when despite being heavily marked, he forged into the opponent box and saw his left footed effort go just wide.
Uilliams breezed into the box to create another chance in the 77th minute, and crossed it for Tuboi, who had the entire breadth of the goal at his mercy. However, the substitute couldn't make a perfect contact and Pawan Kumar pulled off a good save to deny the hosts their second goal.
However, Lajong doubled their lead in the 80th minute after Glen went past a couple of defenders to calmly place the ball inside the box.
The away side was reduced to ten men as custodian Pawan Kumar was given marching orders for handling the ball outside the penalty-box, heaping more misery on them.
The nightmare was still not over for Ashley Westwood's side as Curtis Osano was also red-carded in the injury time after an ill-timed tackle on Tuboi. Glen stepped up and converted it from the spot with ease to script an emphatic victory at home.

The Federal Reserve and the big banks fought for more than two years to keep details of the largest bailout in U.S. history a secret. Now, the rest of the world can see what it was missing.
The Fed didn't tell anyone which banks were in trouble so deep they required a combined $1.2 trillion on Dec. 5, 2008, their single neediest day. Bankers didn't mention that they took tens of billions of dollars in emergency loans at the same time they were assuring investors their firms were healthy. And no one calculated until now that banks reaped an estimated $13 billion of income by taking advantage of the Fed's below-market rates, Bloomberg Markets magazine reports in its January issue.
Secret Fed Loans Gave Banks Undisclosed $13B
The Federal Reserve and the big banks fought for more than two years to keep details of the largest bailout in U.S. history a secret. Now, the rest of the world can see what it was missing.
GE Filed 57,000-Page Tax Return, Paid No Taxes on $14 Billion in Profits
The fact that GE paid no taxes in 2010 was widely reported earlier this year, but the size of its tax return first came to light when House budget committee chairman Paul Ryan (R, Wisc.) made the case for corporate tax reform at a recent townhall meeting. "GE was able to utilize all of these various loopholes, all of these various deductions--it's legal," Ryan said. Nine billion dollars of GE's profits came overseas, outside the jurisdiction of U.S. tax law. GE wasn't taxed on $5 billion in U.S. profits because it utilized numerous deductions and tax credits, including tax breaks for investments in low-income housing, green energy, research and development, as well as depreciation of property.
Eight SEC employees disciplined on failure to stop Madoff fraud
The Securities and Exchange Commission, which failed to stop Bernard Madoff's long-running investment fraud despite repeated warnings, has disciplined eight agency employees over their handling of the matter but did not fire anyone, according to a SEC spokesman.
A ninth employee, who was facing a potential seven-day suspension, resigned before disciplinary action was taken, spokesman John Nester said.
30 Companies paid no US income tax 2008-2010: Report
Thirty large and profitable U.S. corporations paid no income taxes in 2008 through 2010, said a study on Thursday that arrives as Congress faces rising demands for tax reform but seems unable or unwilling to act.
Pepco Holdings Inc, a Washington, D.C.-area power company, had the lowest effective tax rate, at negative 57.6 percent, among the 280 Fortune 500 companies studied.
Top Earners Doubled Share of Nation's Income, Study Finds
The top 1 percent of earners more than doubled their share of the nation's income over the last three decades, the Congressional Budget Office said Tuesday, in a new report likely to figure prominently in the escalating political fight over how to revive the economy, create jobs and lower the federal debt.
In addition, the report said, government policy has become less redistributive since the late 1970s, doing less to reduce the concentration of income.
GAO Report: Federal Reserve Is Riddled With Corruption And Conflicts Of Interest, Stephen Friedman Is Targeted
A new audit of the Federal Reserve released today detailed widespread conflicts of interest involving directors of its regional banks.
"The most powerful entity in the United States is riddled with conflicts of interest," Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said after reviewing the Government Accountability Office report. The study required by a Sanders Amendment to last year's Wall Street reform law examined Fed practices never before subjected to such independent, expert scrutiny.
Vatican Calls for New World Economic Order
The Vatican called Monday for radical reform of the world's financial systems, including the creation of a global political authority to manage the economy.
Vatican pronouncements on the economy are meant to guide world leaders as well as the global church. United States Roman Catholic bishops, for example, have released a voter guide for the 2012 election that highlights social concerns such as ending poverty.

One of my best food friends is white pastry wheat. White refers to the tint of the bran — wheats are either white or red. Pastry means a soft wheat, one with low levels of gluten-forming proteins. Those proteins are what help build the gluten matrix when using hard or bread wheats; soft wheats make tender cakes and quick breads. The pancakes I make from Farmer Ground Flour's organic, stone ground whole wheat pastry flour are the definition of perfect in my family, the pancake of request for my 11-year-old's birthday. The pancake that means pancake and home.
Farmer Ground Flour is a mill that stone grinds organically grown New York State grains. Grain farmer Thor Oechsner is part owner in the mill; he and his fields, and millers Greg Mol and Neal Johnston, are great help as I try to understand flour from field to griddle.
My favorite wheat gets planted in the fall. Fall crops go in the ground in September or October, early enough for the seeds to grow a few inches before winter. Fall planting helps seeds get a head start on weed seeds that sit in the ground. Spring can be pretty wet, and hard for farmers to get in the field, so that's another advantage of this habit. Grains take to this system pretty well, since they are the edible seeds of certain grasses, and much like a lawn, these grass crops go dormant.
Snow cover helps protect the crop. A certain amount of winterkill is expected in fall planted crops, but this past winter, things looked pretty dicey. In New York's Finger Lakes region, plenty of snowstorms hit but the snow melted quickly. In low spots, that melt turned to ponds.
Beyond this local hint of doom, there was some general anxiety in the wheat world about supply and prices. By March, stores of North American organic wheat had dwindled. The 2013 wheat crop was limited by continued drought in the arid Southern Plains; regional supplies in the Northeast were limited by a very wet season. Larger organic mills were turning to Argentina for bread wheat. This fact, plus political pressures in Eastern Europe, created worry about what this year could bring for harvest. Late freezes hitting the Plains States during greenup, the time when fall planted grains start to grow, fueled my wonder.
Mid-April, I took a drive to Ithaca, N.Y., to see how my future pancake flour was doing. Amazingly, some of the fields were greening up quite nicely. Sure, there were spots where the plants did not survive, but those tan tips that sat over iced snow were getting crowded by green growth. What a delight to see.
This is what the field looks like now, a couple of weeks before harvest: a field of wheat rows, as American as a box of cereal. Look at those green stalks peaking through the gold heads. Ah, breakfast.
Why did this field and other fields recover? Winterkill is also known as winter survival. Plants that had enough room bounced back from the harsh conditions and grew well. Another factor was the plants having strong enough roots to withstand the pressures of temperature changes from winter through spring.
This tiny rye plant (pictured right) didn't make it. It just didn't have enough roots to hang on to the ground as temperature swings pulled the dirt together into frozen clumps. It was frost heaved.
Winter survival is tricky. Too little growth and the earth kicks out the plant. Too much, and the long green leaves attract mold, or other smothering problems. The malting barley crop in New York suffered a 50% loss due to winterkill, which is understandable, as growers are just figuring out how to make this crop work. The state's 2013 Farm Brewery Law, which ties licensing for a certain kind of brewery to use of state agricultural products, such as grains, hops and honey, has caused a bit of barley fever.

A work in progress
Growing wheat and barley outside of the grain belts is a work in progress. Grain farming and processing, like malting, concentrated in the Midwest, Plains States and Northwest in the late 19th and early 20th century; this consolidation wiped out knowledge and infrastructure for how to grow grain crops in the Northeast. Farms grow grains for dairies, but cows eat differently than we do. And they do not drink spirits or beer.
Growing grains for malting, distilling and flour markets is more complicated than growing for animal feed. These specialty markets need different seed varieties and fertilization practices to hit certain performance markers, like protein levels. Growing food grade grain also requires more cleaning, and careful post harvest handling and storage. The learning curve is steep as people switch from commodity production to community enterprises.
I'm lucky to have a window on these grain ventures, and see people cooperate as they try to figure out what works. Right now, my pancake-flour-in-the-making looks good. The crop isn't in the bin yet; there's still time for weather to wreak havoc. But the farmers and researchers I've talked to are optimistic. Yields will be down, but there will be wheat.

A major Harvard School of Public Health study of 52,000 nurses concludes that some sugar-sweetened beverages are linked to weight gain and type 2, or adult onset, diabetes.
Researchers compared nurses who drank less than one sugar-sweetened beverage a month to those who consumed as many as one or more a day and tracked their health records and dietary habits for eight years. They found:
- The risk for diabetes was heightened in both nonobese and obese women, in those with both low and high rates of physical activity, and in those consuming small and large amounts of trans-fats.
- Many of the diabetes-rate increases were considered statistically significant, though in some categories the results stopped just short of being statistically significant.
- Overall, however, the researchers concluded that, after adjusting for certain factors, women drinking the most sugar-sweetened soft drinks daily had an 83 percent increased risk of type 2 diabetes compared with those consuming the least.
- The link between sugary drinks persisted even after "adjusting for intake of caffeine, red meat, French fries, processed meat, sweets, snacks, vegetables and fruit," say Harvard doctors.
The study's targeted beverages, says the American Beverage Association, are not listed as risk factors for type 2 diabetes by the American Diabetes Association or the majority of published medical literature.

What Is BPD
What is Borderline Personality Disorder?
Borderline personality disorder is a disorder where individuals have extreme difficulties regulating their emotions. Problems include intense anger, chaotic relationships, impulsivity, unstable sense of self, suicide attempts, self-harm, shame, fears of abandonment, and chronic feelings of emptiness.
But there is hope. With appropriate treatment many sufferers show improvement in one year. Over time, 80% of BPD sufferers reduce their symptoms.
It is estimated that more than 14 million American adults, distributed equally between men and women, have BPD. It is more common than schizophrenia or bipolar disorder: an estimated 11% of outpatients, 20% of psychiatric inpatients and 6% of primary care visits meet the criteria for the disorder. Obtaining an accurate diagnosis can be difficult.
Research, treatment options and family education are decades behind compared to other major psychiatric disorders. The costly personal, social and economic toll of BPD makes it a significant national public health burden and issue. However, the impact of BPD remains largely unrecognized.
People with BPD often have highly unstable patterns of social relationships. While they can develop intense attachments, their attitudes toward family, friends, and loved ones may suddenly shift from idealization (great admiration and love) to devaluation (intense anger and dislike). Even with family members, individuals with BPD are highly sensitive to rejection, reacting with anger and distress to such mild separations as a vacation, a business trip, or a sudden change of plans.
Distortions in thinking and sense of self can lead to frequent changes in long-term goals, career plans, jobs, friendships, gender identity, and values. Sometimes people with BPD view themselves as fundamentally bad, or unworthy. They may feel unfairly misunderstood or mistreated, bored, empty, and have little idea who...

Cal Sensors has announced the launch of a new line of single channel detectors (SCD) that block unwanted radiation below 1.2 microns. Exploiting the innate transmission bandwidth of Silicon, the new SCD-Si detectors are packaged with anti-reflection Silicon windows to block undesirable energy in the UV and visible spectrums. Thus these detectors focus on the infrared spectrum, minimizing the effects of unwanted radiation that can interfere with test results and reduce measured dynamic range. Optimizing performance in the 1.2 to 5.5 microns infrared spectrum, the SCD-Si detectors combine the superior sensitivity and fast response-times of lead salt detectors with the band-limiting attributes of Silicon to provide excellent quality, long life and high performance detection.
Anti-reflective (A/R) coated Silicon is readily available, robust and can be designed to optimize the transmission in the near to mid-IR spectrum. It is an ideal material for filtering the radiation that hits the detector in the 1.2 to 5.5 microns operational bandwidth.

text: Hopefully some one in CT will know, as I am sure the laws differ from state to state. I have had a few attempts to collect on me. Thus far I have never lost a case and have had to pay nothing. But obviously that cannot last what I do not know is what if anything do I have to pay when some one collects on me. I had one guy that left he had made about $4400 now 11 months later he tried to collect on me. I beat him bad in fact his house got raided but thats besides the point I got the letter and it said I would be liable for X amount which was exactly half of what he had earned under me. Now had I lost would I have gotten a bill for that roughly $2200 or would I have paid part of it or would only the rate I pay which is currently 2.4% have gone up. Having never collected myself and never paid out anything either I have no idea how the system works. Only after seeing those numbers it does make me wonder. As for the P.O.S ex employee well lets just say the state does not thing drug dealers should get to collect any more then I do. And I never even had to have a hearing my statement was all it took to end that basically you ever have an employee thats always on his cell phone. Why do you think that is?

I am still in full on writing gear over here, how about you? Last week I wrote about How to Help Students Revise in this post. I am very happy to report that revisions are going really well in our class, and we are getting much more natural at it.
Editing is a whole different story though, so this week I am focusing on ways to make peer editing meaningful, because let's face it, there is one of us, and what seems like sixteen million of them and wanting help at the same time.
Set Clear Expectations
I devote a whole writing block to just setting up the expectations of what peer editing is. This is a tough one for kids, and adults for that matter, to wrap their heads around. No one wants to be told that their writing isn't perfect. By setting up clear expectations and a purpose from the beginning you keep everyone on the same page.
I always tell my students that we are working together to make our writing better, not that it needs to be fixed.
Model, Model, Model
A large chunk of that first day of peer editing is me modeling how I would like to see it done. I am fortunate enough to have an aid in my room during writing, so she and I model it up with our own writing, then we model some more with student writing.
Assign Partners Based on Ability
I am pretty rigid when it comes to partners for editing. I don't want my highest writers to get frustrated by trying to get their writing edited by someone who is still working on writing complete sentences, and the other way around. By ability grouping, I know that partners are on roughly the same playing field and will be able to learn from one another.
Now you might be asking yourself how those lowest babies can edit when they are struggling to write a sentence, and this is my response to that. They get their ability based partner, but they also get a peer coach to work with the set of partners. My peer coaches are my kindest, most patient, students. They aren't always the highest writers, but I believe that this process is just as important to them to help them become those highest writers.
Now That We Know How....
Break Out Those Highlighters
Special Pens
Start Small
The first time I have my students peer edit all they looked for was capitalization. After doing that for a while we added in punctuation, and at this point we are doing those plus spelling and asking questions about the piece.
By starting small students feel successful, and that makes them come back for more!
Have a Checklist for Students to Complete
The checklist above is the one I use with my students. You can grab a copy of it here if you think it will work for you, but even if it doesn't, I would recommend coming up with something. A checklist helps to guide students with their partners, because goodness knows no matter how many times we have done something someone always asks me what's next, and I just don't have time for that!
I hope that this post has been helpful! I would love to hear from you in the comments on what other writing struggles you are having. You never know, I might have a tip or two to share in the future!

Windsor City Councillor John Elliott and TD Canada Trust staff Christine Mills and Jenny Vu commemorated the new Arboretum in Ambassador Park today by shovelling the final mulch around the trees.
Ten trees were recently planted in the Ward 2 park on Windsor's riverfront, located near the western entrance to the Windsor Sculpture Park.
Plaques with a brief description of the tree's attributes were also placed at the base of each tree, providing an educational opportunity for people to learn more about the types of native trees that grow along the banks of the Detroit River.
The TD Friends of the Environment Foundation provided the funding for the project in celebration of Canada's 150th year.
Today's event follows a cheque presentation that was held in June, when Mayor Drew Dilkens accepted a ceremonial cheque for $15,000 from TD Canada Trust District Vice President Eric Griggs.

If you think, as I once did, that soap operas are easy to identify and avoid because they only air between 10am and 3pm on weekdays and look like they were filmed with your granddad's camcorder, you're wrong. Soaps are everywhere. They can appear at any time, on any channel, and often have extraordinarily high budgets that allow them to feature mind-blowing sets and special effects in high definition.
Three main qualities will help you identify soap operas:
1. Everyone sleeps with everyone
This is the obvious one. Soap operas are the whole reason we're taught combinatorics in middle school. If a soap opera has 7 main characters, how many distinct couples will be formed by the end up the series? How many love triangles will occur by season 4? How many times will each male character be slapped for cheating?* These days, the classier soap operas take it a step further: everyone marries everyone, because nothing says high-class like haphazardly entering into a legally binding contract.
It is possible to have a show where everyone sleeps with everyone without it being a soap opera, but it's rare. It really depends on the reason why everyone is sleeping with everyone, which brings us to...
2. The Memoryless Property
Like the exponential random variable, what happened last episode has nothing to do with what happens in today's episode on a soap opera. A character's ideas, values and basic identity are infinitely changeable and constantly mutate to maximize drama. The only constant is hair color, without which it would be impossible to tell the characters apart. Literally everything else is up for grabs, and I do mean literally. Which brings us to...
3. The L Word
If a soap opera continues for more than two seasons, some female character must somehow become a lesbian. The more out of nowhere this change is, the better, really. It's not like sexual orientation is a deeply rooted and fundamental part of a person's psyche and identity. Anyone, or at least any female, can, at any time, flip that internal lesbo switch if the writers run out of ideas.
Popular soaps masquerading as prime time dramas include Grey's Anatomy (partner-swapping: check; memoryless: check; lesbian: check!), E.R., Private Practice- well, pretty much any medical drama, I suppose. Also most legal dramas, detective dramas, and drama dramas. Yes, soaps are utterly pervasive, so how do you deal when you discover the horrifying truth: that the show you love is actually a horrendous hodgepodge of meaningless drama and inconstant characters who never develop or act remotely like real people? How do you find the courage to face the abyss you find in your soul where your good taste in television used to reside?
There are four stages of recovery after you realize that your favorite show is really an over-hyped soap:
Stage 1: Denial
Yes, everything begins with denial. Every time your brain picks up a new bit of evidence condemning your show, it runs frantically in the other direction. Maybe Brittany really is a lesbian, you think. Maybe they weren't just doing that for the drama. But more evidence accumulates, and you can't rationalize it forever. Maybe Britt's just an over-sexed ditz. No, wait, but now she really cares about Artie. Okay, maybe she was just confused before, I mean, she's always confused, right? Wait, I thought the whole deal was that they do modern songs, so why is Gwyneth saying they never do stuff the kids can relate to? Don't they remember that the whole Journey thing was Finn's idea? So now why are they doing a hokey 80s song no one likes for sectionals? Why do the writers never follow up on these story lines? Do they even watch the show? Oh my god, is Mr. Schuster seriously going to have a fleeting romance with every non-student female on this show? What the fuck is going on?!
Stage 2: Anger
Once you can't deny any longer, you move to anger. You start to hate the show. You refuse to watch it and mock the people who do. You make snide, offhand remarks about the show in conversation. Maybe you, I don't know, blog about it or something. You start to catalog every single thing that doesn't make sense about the show. You track, in detail, all the utterly schizophrenic behaviors and decisions of the characters. It's probable that you will spend far more time on these activities than the shows writers ever will.
Stage 3: Indifference
Once your catalog of inconsistencies has grown to be almost the size of the original script, you abruptly drop it. Turns out, people aren't watching that show so much anymore anyway, and the ones who are can't actually focus long enough to process your damning evidence of soapness. You've picked up another show, anyway, and this one is definitely not a soap opera, because it's critically acclaimed, made by HBO, and based on a series of books. Books can never be soaps, right? Right?
Stage 4: Acceptance
Years go by, and one day the entire series of that old soapy show is available on Netflix Instant. Suddenly you remember all the fun you had together- the quirky characters, the entertaining twists, how pretty everyone is. With enough distance, you're finally able to sit down and enjoy the show for what it is: daytime television with better production value.
Happy watching,
S. Misanthrope
*Answers: 21 (allowing for changeable sexual orientation; see 3); 35 (regardless of sexual orientation); 12 if straight or butch, 1 otherwise.

The Rules.
posted: July 25th, 2006
As I try to solve game design problems I try to make sure that I adhere to certain rules. This isn't a list fixed in stone as every now and then I will think of a new rule that really needs to be inserted, but overall they shouldn't change too much.
- The Game has to be fun. This is the most important rule of all. What I'm working on is a form of entertainment. People don't have to play what I design and if what I design isn't fun for them then they will stop playing.
- Don't assume because I enjoy something that other people will enjoy it. Don't force them to do activities because I assume everyone will find them fun.
- Give people choices. Don't leave out activities that other people may enjoy just because I don't find them fun. Remember something for everyone.
- Keep a clear eye on balance. Make sure one play style doesn't get favored over another. Do this by analyzing Risk verses Reward when there are different paths characters may take.

There will be a stronger reprisal against the unacceptable treatment toward Turkey and ministers who have diplomatic immunity.

Belgium captain Vincent Kompany says Ireland aren't the only side with "fire in the belly".
The countries will meet in what will be both teams' second Group E game at Euro 2016 on 18 June in Bordeaux and Kompany says the Belgians are looking forward to the game.
Asked by RTÉ Sport how the his players felt after drawing Martin O'Neill's men, the Man City defender replied: "We loved it because obviously a lot of Irish players play in the Premier League, a lot of the Belgium players play in the Premier League.
"And as much as Ireland is known for having fire in the belly, I think we are too.
"We're just looking forward to it, it's going to be brilliant."
Ireland open their campaign against Sweden in Paris on 13 June.
City beat Dynamo Kiev 3-1 away to put one foot in the Champions League quarter-finals.
"The performance was good, with a lot of high pressing, 3-1 is a good result and we are happy with it," Kompany said.
"We are going into the second leg with a fairly good chance to go through, which has not been the case before.
"We looked like a team that was hungry for success tonight."

There's been a persistent rumor, which has morphed several times during the past year, about Lakeland Police Chief Lisa Womack having a contract, receiving a bonus or having extra retirement benefits after completing three years of service.
LAKELAND | There's been a persistent rumor, which has morphed several times during the past year, about Lakeland Police Chief Lisa Womack having a contract, receiving a bonus or having extra retirement benefits after completing three years of service.
None of that's true, city spokes�man Kevin Cook said Monday.
Womack, who announced her May 1 resignation last week, doesn't have a con�tract.
She won't receive a bonus when she leaves.
And she hasn't received any extra retirement benefits, according to numerous records obtained by The Ledger during the past year.
"There have been a number of rumors that have surfaced regarding a compensation package for Chief Lisa Womack, and these rumors just simply aren't true," Cook said.
"I don't know where they come from or how they surface, but there was no bonus for getting accredited, and there is no big payout for goals of service."
The only retirement money Womack will receive when she leaves in May is about $55,000 of her own money, Cook said. That's how much Womack has contributed to her own pension account since being hired in March 2011.
Because Womack won't be employed by the city for the 10 years required to vest in the plan, she isn't eligible for any of the city-contributed pension money.
Womack was enrolled in the Lakeland Police Officers Defined Benefit Retirement System, which is standard for all officers, Cook said. In that, the city con�tributes 17.85 percent of the employee's base salary to the plan, and the employee — Womack in this case — is required to contribute 13.9 percent of her base salary.
But because Womack resigned before working 10 years for the city, she forfeits the funds contributed by the city, Cook said.
Lakeland Mayor Howard Wiggs said he started getting calls about the supposed extra benefits immediately after Womack announced she would leave May 1.
"My phone lit up," Wiggs said after Womack's announcement. "A lot of people are curious about it."
Another recurring complaint during the past year presumed that Womack had a contract which paid her a bonus if the department received its accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies.
While the department did receive its national accreditation, she wasn't eligible for a bonus, according to records reviewed by The Ledger.
And Womack didn't sign a contract when she was hired by City Manager Doug Thomas nearly three years ago.
An employment agreement, which spells out her role as chief, retirement offerings, vacation and sick days and salary, among other items, was signed in December 2010 when Thomas offered her the job.
"We all have performance measures that we are evaluated on, but, rest assured, there is no bonus money tied to any goal," Cook said.

Anything else?
Admitted for a bilateral knee replacement I could not fault my care from being admitted to leaving four days later. I was kept informed every step of the way. Staff were courteous and confident and the consultant visited on a regular basis. I can't thank you all enough. To be pain free after years of suffering has opened up my world again. One observation, which didn't effect me, elderly patients who had to wait for bed pans to be removed because staff were busy elsewhere on what is a physically huge Ward. It isn't a comfortable position to be left in for any length of time I'm sure.

Happy Monday! It's been a crazy weekend of stamping for me!! But good crazy! After making 10 cards on Saturday I managed to pull off another 3 on Sunday. I think I'm set for a few days now.....well, maybe not. I love that my mojo has finally returned full steam!
I created this card for one of SplitCoastStampers Hope You Can Cling To! challenges....Unsentimental. The challenge was to create a card without any sentiments on the front. It's actually a pretty easy challenge....but I have to say....this card would be perfect with a sweet little sentiment on it. I started by using the faux silk technique with a facial tissue for the main panel. I cut out and colored one of the Awareness Ribbons from my store and adhered it to the side. I finished with some small white eyelets. An embellishment I rarely use, but seemed just right for this card.
I'm hoping to play along with the other challenges....4 up already with another new one each day this month. Each card will then be sent off to the Anderson Cancer Center. You should join in with the fun too. There are even a ton of prizes up for grabs.
Happy Stamping,

From the album Nu, Ladna
About this Song
This is the song Chairs, but in Russian. The music also differs from the English version of Chairs.
[Music by Jansen Price and Jacob Breinholt, Lyrics by Jansen Price]
I went into a town, everyone was standing around.
I knew something was wrong, 'cause no one would sit down.
All they'd do is stand, so I came up with a plan.
I built a factory, and now the people are happy, with,
Chairs, chairs, chairs, you can sit on them, put your kid on them when he's bad.
Chairs, chairs, chairs, you can get on them to reach stuff that is high.
I built so many chairs, more than I had hairs.
No one works anymore, so everyone is poor.
Now they sit around, all through the town.
Nothing ever gets done, 'cause sitting is so much fun, on,
Chairs, chairs, chairs, chairs......

Jose Aldo Keeping KO Loss to McGregor in the Past: 'It's Not Going to Teach Me Anything'
Many professional fighters claim to have learned much more from defeat than in victory. For Jose Aldo, however, there is nothing to be gained from reviewing his 13-second knockout loss to Conor McGregor in December.
"I don't even think about it. I don't really watch it," Aldo said during a recent conference call. "My focus is on Frankie Edgar. That's really in the past for me. I buried that and it's stayed in the past. I don't try to go back and look at it or anything."
With McGregor's next 145-pound title defense on hold as he attempts to avenge a previous loss to Nate Diaz in their rematch on Aug. 20, Aldo will square off with Edgar for the interim featherweight strap in a featured clash at UFC 200 on July 9. Both men had aggressively lobbied for a crack at McGregor, but with the Irishman's future in the division uncertain, a rematch of their UFC 156 showdown — which Aldo won via decision — was the next most appealing option.
And really, Aldo says it doesn't matter the opponent. His primary objective is UFC gold.
"That's all I think about," he said. "That's my greatest motivation. It doesn't matter who it is, whether it's Frankie or anyone else, I want to get my title back."
Prior to facing McGregor, Aldo had established himself as one of the promotion's pound-for-pound best fighters. He entered UFC 194 on an 18-fight winning streak that included seven successful title defenses in the Octagon. In the short amount of time it took McGregor to land a counter left hook and two follow-up hammerfists, that reign was over. The loss could easily have taken a devastating physical and psychological toll on the Brazilian star, but Aldo insists that the defeat is not a cause for concern heading into his matchup with Edgar.
"I think it's two completely different things," he said. "I'm not trying to look at it like that. It's not going to teach me anything at this point. Right now I'm focused on Frankie and studying him and looking forward and not looking in the past."
For his part, Edgar isn't expecting a diminished version of Aldo, either.
"Not at all. The only thing is he's coming off a loss and he hasn't lost in 10 years. I'm sure he's got some things mentally to get through in this camp," Edgar said. "No one knows how he's gonna bounce back and he's not gonna know until he's actually in there....I'm expecting a highly-motivated Aldo. I want to come in there and redeem myself. I'm expecting that he's going to be the best Aldo. I always put my opponents on a pedestal."
Aldo has no illusions regarding the meaning of the interim title. When McGregor defeated Chad Mendes at UFC 189, Aldo referred to the prize from that bout as a "toy belt." Now that he's fighting for the same thing, he recognizes that there is more work to be done should he get past Edgar.
"We're really fighting for the next title shot," he said. "I thought I deserved to get a rematch. This is the next step for me to get my belt back."

"Greatness is not found in possessions, power, position, or prestige. It is discovered in goodness, humility, service, and character."
"Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hate. It is a power that breaks the chains of bitterness and the shackles of selfishness."
"A well-developed sense of humor is the pole that adds balance to your steps as you walk the tightrope of life."
"Love is more than a noun -- it is a verb; it is more than a feeling -- it is caring, sharing, helping, sacrificing."
