Corrie newcomer Rebecca Callard talks about her character Ruth
Rebecca said that her character will be "formidable, really interesting, hard and tough," and she is something completely different from the characters in costume dramas that she usually plays. She added that she wouldn't want to be a character relating to Liz, as "it's nice to be doing something for myself." She insisted that although lots of people have said she only got the part because of her mum because that isn't obviously isn't true.
Rebecca will only be in nine episodes at first and she doesn't know if she can come back. She would like to though. I think Ruth sounds like a strong character person even before seeing her on screen, so I hope she does, but what does everyone else think?

I wish she didn't remind me of Becky! (I hate watching her now).

Nine episodes will be enough for me

The street is overun with characters already!
- 15 August 2011 18:42
Didn't get her job because of her mom...does she really believe that? Ha.
- 15 August 2011 19:02
Regarding the first comment above: When I say I hate her now, I was referring to Becky.
- 15 August 2011 19:45
Nine episodes is more than enough for me too, obviously wants to coat tail her mother. We dont need ANOTHER felon character thank you very much.
- 16 August 2011 07:38
I wasn't that impressed when I watched her last night with Fiz.
- 16 August 2011 11:08
She has a look of a young Caroline Aherne (Denise, from the Royale Family) more that Beverley Callard. Mind you, I cannot stand watching Becky McDonald, so i hope Rebecca Callard leaves either before or at the same time as Becky leaves next year, as Rebecca Callard also reminds me of Becky in a way.

I thought she was good. Seemed very nice and down to earth on This Morning. I loved her in the Grand.

I thought she was class.She's nothing like Becky.Just because both characters were introduced with a prison storyline doesn't mean they are exactly the same.Think you've got to credit the writers with a little more creativity and intelligence than that.You've also got to give her a chance.I looked on imdb and she has done some really really good tele and stuff.And she does theatre according to my mum. She didn't have much to do in that episode but I reckon they'll be easing her in gently to the programme.So what if her mum's Liz McDonald.If you reckon people get jobs on tele just because of who their mum is then I think you're a bit stupid. Everyone auditions.The best people get the jobs. And from a boys point of view I think she's proper fit.All my mates do too. Hope she stays init and proves you all jeolous people wrong.
- 16 August 2011 14:03
I'd watch her all day with that cleavage. She's well fit.
- 18 August 2011 15:03
Look at her roles on the Rebecca Callard page. Doubt she needed her Mother's help.
- 18 August 2011 18:30
I'm a bit late with this comment, but I think the character Ruth has been played very well by this actress.
She is convincing to me the way in which she varies between being a victim to victimizing others around her.
It's hard to believe which is the real Ruth's story, although, as the days go by, I think we are beginning to see.
I have enjoyed the hard, sharp look in the actress's eyes, hard to disguise what the character's thinking, although her words say something else.
I don't think she resembles Becky's character, I don't think she got the role because of her mother, and I'd like to to follow her on the outside, could be interesting. - 23 August 2011 17:31
I agree, she's absolutely brilliant.

We stayed just one night. Found the Quality Inn in Fishkill very convenient for event in Beacon. It was clean, comfortable, quiet, and very affordable.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Perfectly good hotel--clean, fresh-smelling, new"
I would definitely return to this hotel. It looks like it's a brand-new hotel or got a really nice renovation recently. Everything was spotless and clean-smelling. No one can smoke inside the hotel--there's no smoking rooms at all so no odors in hallways. The shower was glorious and hot and there were 4 towels waiting for us instead of the usual 3 you […] get in some hotels. The breakfast was a generous mix for the health conscious and a nice place to sit and enjoy--free! I noticed that the hotel rating is not that high and I'm not sure why.

"Newly refurbished and clean, great one night stay"
My mom and I stayed here for a stopover for one night. I selected this hotel because of the great price (compared to all others nearby) and its proximity right off the highway. I was pleasantly surprised that it seemed newly refurbished with lovely details like mosaic tile in the entry way, a stone accent wall at the reception, granite counters in the […] bathroom, new bath tub/shower, new carpet, and nice crisp clean bedding. It is not a luxury hotel but it was very comfortable to stay here due to the cleanliness and decor. The breakfast was typical, waffle maker, cereal, coffee etc. and there is a diner right next to the hotel if you'd rather a more extensive meal, though we ate dinner at the diner and it wasn't very good. Just up the street from the hotel is a quaint little street with some cute looking restaurants and I wish we had tried one of them instead of the diner. My only complaint was that the people in the room next to us were very loud and due to the lack of acoustics in the hotel it sounded like they were in our room (though most hotels seem to have the same noise issues). I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants very easy access off the highway and to be close to some of the area attractions. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

We picked this hotel solely on its close proximity to friends that we were visiting in Beacon. We were pleasantly surprised with all aspects of the hotel from price to service to comfort. We enjoyed free late night hot chocolate in the lobby each night. They also have coffee and fruit available at All times. Free breakfast was decent with hot eggs and […] sausage as well as basic continental staples. 84 Diner is Right in front of the hotel as well as a cute little ice cream/hot dog stand.

the front desk kept me in cookies tea and fruit all during our stay. she was very pleasant. great restrarant out front and also an icecream stand. good neighborhood. outlet shopping 25 minutes away.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"I love this place."
I've stayed here several times when I just want to get away from the city. It's reasonably priced and conveniently close to Cold Spring (if you have a car). And the 84 Diner next door is open 24 hours, and one of the best diners you'll ever experience.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
I was quite impressed with the upbeat attitude and the willingness of the entire staff to answer any questions and provide immediate service. I noticed that this location had received Quality Inn's Platinum award, and I was not surprised at all. I would come back just to experience the great hospitality! Thank You!Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Perfectly clean, well-maintained room, decent complimentary breakfast, short walk to a great 24-hour diner for a late meal. Would stay here again if I need a room in the area.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
For a basic place to stay, I couldn't imagine anything better. The breakfast is pretty good for standard fare. The room was super clean as were the sheets, towels and bathroom. The staff was great. The fitness room was small but clean and everything worked. NO SMOKING which is so great. Cookies at the front desk. A great diner steps from the entrance. Now […] if only some of the loud guests could have kept quiet but that's not Quality's fault. So I say - yes stay here. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"30 minutes from 3 convenient towns"
I loved the cleanliness and that it was so well maintained. I'm very particular that way. Great service!! There is a diner-the "84" diner right next to the hotel. We ate there several times and it was always good!! It is within 30 minutes of West Point, Newburg, and Poughkeepsie. The only negative I'd say is that the beds are pretty hard. My shoulders […] would be asleep in the morning. Other than that I would highly suggest the Quality Inn and Suites in Fishkill! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good total value"
Total package with nice staff, large clean room, and a pretty decent price... All creating a good overall value.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great Hotel"
The hotel and staff were great. The breakfast was nice for complimentary. The only complaint was the A/C - it was not cold enough and it keep running and making strange noses..Genuine Expedia guest review
Not close to USMA - West Point. Also, on our first night, very noisy in the hallway with doors banging as they were closed. We also couldn't sleep because a child kept on jumping down on the floor up in the second floor and we were on the first floor. We booked on line and it said there is a microwave and refrigerator in the room, but our room has only […] a refrigerator and NO microwave. We were disappointed.

"A little more expensive than it should be."
Generally a very nice place to stay but I was disappointed by the price. I would say if your paying around 100 bucks a night your doing well here. There were some things that could be improved. The continental breakfast was not to my tastes but others seemed to enjoy it. The complementary cookies at the front desk were a nice touch but they were nothing […] special. The beds were more firm than I care for but the room was quiet and well sized. The television was a newer flat screen but the cable service was analog not digital so the picture size was much smaller than the screen size and difficult to watch.

"Breath of fresh air"
This was a fairly basic hotel but the service was amazing. Very friendly front desk staff and they made us feel like we were in a NYC 5 star hotel for our 1 day of business up in little Fishkill, NY :) Not sure if I will ever be back to Fishkill, but if so, I will definately stay here again. This was also very convienient location.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"The platinum rating goes a little too far!"
Hotel was nice, service was terrible though.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good Budget Friendly Hotel"
My family stayed one night en route to visit family in the area. The hotel was very clean and the breakfast was satisfactory. I always love the waffles and the pastries were fresh. All the food was kept stocked even though the hotel was very busy with lots of people coming down for breakfast. My one complaint was that the temperature in the lobby and […] hallways was very warm. The front desk said that the A/C was working, but that with the number of people and constant opening of the front doors it couldn't keep up. The A/C in the room worked fine. We had a pleasant stay.

"Starting to age"
It's unfortunate that hotels cost what they do in the Northeast. We get so much more for our money in the South. I know it is a Quality Inn, not a luxury hotel, but . . . First room they gave us had wet carpet. It took a few minutes, but they changed our room. First room had a real mini-fridge; the second had a tiny fridge that barely held anything. […] Although the hotel is not that old, it is starting to show signs of wear: mattresses are starting to sag; towels are really thin; broken waffle maker. It is a place to reat your head at night, not to hang out for any length of time. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great place to stay"
Great accomodations for the nigth. Very confortable and great place for the family to rest after a full day of soccer at the Hudson Invitational Tournament. Would look to stay here again!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Clean, comfortable hotel"
Easy access off highway. Brand new. Good breakfast. Unfortunately the handicapp rooms are located at end of hallway , farthest from the elevator. I have also found that if you make your reservations through expedia, hotels are less willing to accomodate your special requests. They want you to reserve through them at a higher rate.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Good choice of Hotel"
The staff at the hotel were really good. Especially the reception staff. Nicole is the person who helped me to seamlessly stay in my King suite.

Playwright Delighted to be Mired in Tragedy
Boston Globe interview with playwright and director Sean Graney RI '14 about his project to adapt all 32 Greek tragedies into a 12-hour theatrical event
Boston Globe interview with playwright and director Sean Graney RI '14 about his project to adapt all 32 Greek tragedies into a 12-hour theatrical event
Julie Orringer, a fellow at the Radcliffe Institute, spoke on the ability of novels to convey truths through fiction in a lecture. Orringer discussed the ways in which writers blend history with their own speculation and inventions into a cohesive story.
Julie Orringer RI '14 is working on a novel about Varian Fry, a Harvard graduate who saved more than 2,000 artists and anti-Nazi activists in occupied France during WWII.
The Boston Globe highlights fellow Julie Orringer's talk on the art of historical novels.
Harvard will host a series of events to honor the legacy of President John F. Kennedy '40 on the 50th anniversary of his assassination. Radcliffe will host a screening of the film, "Letters to Jackie: Remembering President Kennedy."
The Boston Globe Critic's Pick: Radcliffe fellow and painter Elise Adibi mixes essential plant oils used in aromatherapy with her oil paint in abstract works that inevitably call us back to our bodies. Exhibit open through December 20.
Radcliffe's Schlesinger Library commemorated the 50th anniversary of Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique by hosting a discussion on the evolution of gender roles since the book's release and its relevance to contemporary American society. The Library holds Friedan's papers.
Carolyn Abbate RI '06, one of the world's most accomplished and admired music historians, has been named to become a University Professor, Harvard's highest honor for a faculty member. In 2005, she came to Harvard as the Fanny Peabody Professor of Music and served as the first Radcliffe Alumnae Professor at the Radcliffe Institute.
Marking seven years of collaboration between the Radcliffe Institute's Schlesinger Library and Community Works of Boston, the library hosted a program, "Women Living in Poverty," with seven activists who lead organizations combating poverty and its cruel effects. The event remembers Kip Tiernan, founder of Rosie's Place, whose papers are among the Schlesinger Library collections.

Less than a week after Brandt Snedeker picked up an eye watering $11.5 million check as he claimed the FedEx Cup, the best golfers from the United States and Europe will go head to head with not a dime on the line and with nothing to play for but pride itself.
The 39th Ryder Cup matches at Medinah Country Club in Chicago will be watched by packed and partisan galleries and a huge global television audience, but for the 12 players on each team overall victory in the biennial team event is all that matters.
They are playing for expenses only and whenever the issue of financial rewards is raised, it is quickly ruled out.
"No prize money is involved, just a lot of pride," three-time European captain Bernard Gallacher told CNN.
"And the matches are very, very competitive."
The American team will have the Stars and Stripes running through their veins and it's a chance for the Europeans to combine under a united flag.
"It's the only competition we have with the United States outside the occasional football match and it's the same for them given that their main sports are baseball, gridiron and ice-hockey," said Bill Elliott, Chair of the Association of Golf Writers.
"Let's face it, it's not hard for Americans to show nationalistic pride! " the Briton added with tongue in cheek.
Timely intervention
This is a contest which grips golf and sports fans for three days but was in danger of extinction in the 1970s and had it not been for the intervention of 18-time major winner Jack Nicklaus, it may well have withered and died.
Nicklaus proposed to Earl Derby, the then president of the Professional Golfers Association, that players from continental Europe should augment the Great Britain and Ireland line-up to make for a better contest.
The United States had only lost once in the post-war era -- in 1957 at Lindrick -- and interest, particularly in America, was dwindling.
Nicklaus' suggestion was taken up, so in 1979 two Spaniards, Seve Ballesteros and Antonio Garrido, took their place for the match at Greenbrier in West Virginia.
Read: Golfing Gangsters: Al Capone's Chicago outfit would have loved the Ryder Cup
This did not prevent the visiting team from suffering a heavy defeat, but as Elliott, who was reporting his first of 17 Ryder Cups and counting, recalls, the change was "absolutely essential".
Scot Gallacher made one of his eight appearances as a player in that watershed encounter and admitted "Seve and Antonio had disappointing matches." (They both had 1-4-0 records.)
"However, their participation in the long-term saved the Ryder Cup," he added.
Two years later, Ballesteros sat out proceedings at Walton Heath in 1981 after a dispute over his European Tour membership, but even he would have been able to do little to prevent what is rated the strongest U.S. team in history thrashing the home side.
United Europe
That was to be last time that the U.S. enjoyed such a level of domination and by the time of the next match at Palm Beach Gardens in Florida in 1983, the Europeans were united under the captaincy of Tony Jacklin, with Ballesteros in his pomp.

Thread: Peter GADE
5th consecutive semi-finals @ Super Series in 2010
Peter started the year 2010 with a runner-up to Lee Chong Wei @ Korea Open. It was then followed by 4 consecutive semi-finals appearances @ Super Series (Malaysia, All England, Swiss and now Singapore). This is really something to be proud of considering his age.
Well done, Peter. Wish you all the best against Boonsak tomorrow!
A very good role model indeed.
Peter Gade is a hardworking player and despite ageing, he still can play good badminton
and beat some young and good players. I don't think Lin Dan can be as good as Peter Gade
when he reach 30+.....Salute Peter Gade
Peter Hoeg Gade at 34 years of age has beaten his opponent Boonsak Ponsana, 6 years his junior, in the 2010 Copenhagen Masters MS final match, 21-11, 21-12 in 35 minutes.
PHG is one of the most enduring badminton singles players and has stood 10 times on top of the rostrum with regards to this tournament. This is his 11 final appearance in the said tournament and it is indeed a world record.
I wonder whether LD and LCW would still be competitive past 30 years of age and that is not too long in coming. LCW will be 29 and LD 28 years of age in October 2011.
True Love
Peter Gade has true love for the game. While having a wife and 2 kids I've never heard of him talking about retirement from professional badminton, like LD.
He is 34 and still consistently making it to the quarter finals of every tournament he attended this year and won the European Championships. When I watch him play with LCW and LD you can tell they still take him seriously. Peter Gade is awesome to watch with his attacking style.
Didn't PG stated that he was going to retire after the WC in Paris.........not that I am complaning.
PHG is too good to retire and we, his fans, would no doubt wish him to stay on in the circuit as long as he is physically able.
He proved it again at the VICTOR- BWF Super Series Finals 2010 where he was runner-up to LCW.
In the semi-final he beat the 22 year old Chen Long in straight games 21-19, 21-18 in 59 minutes.
His performance at the final is nothing to sniff at and both games were very challenging to LCW notwithstanding the score of 21-9, 21-14.
Peter Gade is still a wondeful athlete even at 34. There's no one in Denmark who can beat him consistently. Physically, Jan and chen Long should be slightly stronger. However, I think Gade's technique, tactics and experience will pull him through when playing against those young machines.
As a former world no 1 who has been top 5 for almost an decade, I don't see him retiring anytime soon unless he have problems physically. Which is great consider how he can stun you with his tumbling netshots and deceptive drops-simply a beauty to watch.
That will certainly be a treat to the eyes-Classic match in the making.The closest we get this year is a match where PG was playing against TH in the AE quater finals. An absolute thrilling match to watch which proves that PG still has what it takes to be a champion although age is not on his side.
However, let's not rule Peter out yet. The other matches which I consider to be a classic is the one he played against LD in china master 2006 and AE 2004. Master tatician vs power play.
He might woke up one day feeling very energetic and on form before playing against LCW and Lin Dan. Hopefully these guys will keep playing until that classic match is being played. Finger corss .
Peter Gade's insightful comments
Lin is seeded only third this week, but if he produces his best he should become unofficial favourite to achieve something not done since the legendary Indonesian Rudy Hartono won the fifth of his seven titles in 1972. And that was before badminton went open.
One person who believes Lin is capable of doing this is Peter Gade, the fourth-seeded Dane, the last European to win the All-England title, and the oldest man in the field at 34.
Gade, who won in 1999 and lost in three games to Lin in the 2004 final, is an admirer of the brilliantly versatile Chinese left-hander as well as being a defender of his withdrawals from tournaments.
They brought criticism from Taufik Hidayat, the former Olympic champion from Indonesia, who reportedly claimed they were unsporting. Gade by contrast commented that Lin's actions had been "wise", adding: "I would do the same if I were him."
He qualified that by saying: "It's not the best thing for the tournaments, but Lin Dan has been the best player for the last five years, and maybe the greatest player of all time -- really, really good, and a complete player, no doubt about that.
"He may have more ups and downs than four or five years back, but it's not changed anything. In form he's the best player."
Despite this Gade also made a point of complimenting Lee Chong Wei, saying: "when you look at the last three years, there is no doubt he has been the most consistent player.
"If it were not for Lin Dan he would be the best player in the world, and these two players have been ahead of the rest - including myself.
"Lee is a complete player. He can do all parts of the game. His physical abilities are really, really strong, which makes it difficult to play against him. But his game is dependent on his self-confidence, and if you can affect that you have a chance of beating him."

Chinese absence makes it less difficult, says world No. 6

The moment has arrived, and so have the players. World No. 6 Peter Gade was the first to land in India to participate in the India Open Super Series starting on April 26 at the Sirifort Complex. The Hindustan Times caught up with the dazzling Dane:
All geared up?
Oh yes. I am up for the battle and will settle for nothing less than the title itself.
This is for the first time India is holding a Super Series event. Your take?
The last time I was in India for the World Championships in 2009, I immensely enjoyed the experience. Though there were some glitches like the security threats to the event that scared some of the big teams away, including England, I didn't flinch.
Did you follow the action during the Commonwealth Games in the Capital?
Sure. I made it a point not to miss even an iota of it and observed every player closely. I even managed to catch all the games of Saina Nehwal. I am absolutely flattered by her technique.
What do you like about Saina?
Well, the brute force, the speed, the footwork and selection of shots, you name it and you have it. Her finishing and execution of shots is absolutely fantastic. Her game is a reflection of her grit, determination and strength. I even saw her game at the All-England recently. The finesse of her game will take her a long way.
How do you rate your chances here?
It's not going to be a cakewalk. Though the absence of the Chinese, who are busy with their domestic league, makes it somewhat less difficult, I still have to run through the obstacle course well enough to take anyone down. I have a tough draw and if I want to win the title, I will have to knock off the challenges from world No. 1 Lee Chong Wei, Indonesia's Taufik Hidayat, Thailand's Boonsak Ponsana and a few Korean players. And it's surely not going to be easy.
What do you have to say about India's chances in men's singles?
India have a good crop of upcoming players like P. Kashyap and Guru Saidutt (runner-up of India Open 2010). They still have a long way to go but from their recent showings show they have a lot of promise.
How do you like the venue?
This is only my first day here. The courts are playing well and I haven't faced any trouble so far. But the best thing is the crowd that eggs you on. That really spurs you on.
How many times do you think you might use your lethal weapon, the 'double-action' shot?
(Smiles) Well, that depends on the opponent, really. I will leave no stone unturned to nail the one on the other end.

Gade continues to train hard like a 20-year-old and exceed expectations despite having no coach and sponsors backing him

Old age is a bitter enemy in sports the one you cant beat. First, eyes go weak, gut widens and knees fall victim to the demanding twists and turns.
Yet there are those who defy the odds to become ageless wonders. At 37, Manchester Uniteds Ryan Giggs has steered his club to the top of the premier league this season. Sachin Tendulkar, now 38, seems to be only getting better every passing year.
Danish badminton legend and current world number 6, Peter Gade, might not enjoy the same celebrity status as Giggs and Tendulkar, but he has proved why he is the eternal fighter still going strong.
The oldest player in the tournament he is 34 , Gade reached yet another final in a career spanning a decade-and-a-half by downing South Koreas Sung Hwan Park 21-15, 21-19.
Mere experience wouldnt have sufficed here. He was up against a player eight years younger and who just happened to be the other bronze medallist at the last World Championships along with Gade.
No less effective
He was quicker, more deceptive both in the air and at the net. The smashes may not have been as strong as they were when he was twenty but they are no less effective.
The fact that I dont have a gold medal at the Olympics or at the World Championship keeps me motivated.
I train four hours each day like I did when I was 20. In fact, now I have to push myself harder physically, Gade said after his win.
You need to be mentally stronger to beat these players because they are really talented. I have to be careful with injuries at this point of my career, especially if I want to play in the London Olympics.
In a sport superabound by Asian superstars, Gade is a lone ranger for Europe. He plays with no coach here, while the others have three or four training them.
No backing
With no major sponsors backing him he has to even fight for funds.
That has been a problem for so many years and I could stop, but if I can reach a final of a Super Series at this age then why stop, he said.
The Dane had actually saved three match points in his opening round against Japanese Kazushi Yamada to come back and win the match. Since then he has never really been troubled by any of the other top players.
I am getting better and better in the tournament. I have been making the semi-finals and quarterfinals regularly and it feels good to be in the final. The last time I played in a final was in the 2010 Korea Open.
Lee Chong next
His next opponent is Lee Chong Wei, a man who has beaten him eleven times in their last 12 encounters. Wei has not really been challenged in this tournament so far. Even yesterday he simply breezed past Yun Hu of Hong Kong 21-11, 21-15.
When top players such as Taufik (Hidayat) and Wei jokingly ask me after a match how I am still playing, all I can do is smile. Sometimes I also dont know.

Critical Essays
Lorraine Hansberry American Literature Analysis
In "The Negro Writer and His Roots: Toward a New Romanticism" (1959), a speech she delivered shortly before A Raisin in the Sun premiered in New York, Hansberry outlined her artistic credo as well as analyzed the roots of her political radicalism. She asserted the responsibility of black writers to disprove certain myths widespread on the American scene. They must challenge the faulty assumptions that art should not be social in its impetus; that individuals exist independent of their sociocultural environment; that the values of middle class, industrialized society necessarily represent those of the lower class; and that the United States has unlimited time to eradicate inequality among its citizens. As her mentor W. E. B. Du Bois foretold, "the problem of the Twentieth Century is the problem of the color line."
As is true in her plays as well, Hansberry's perspective in the essay is a balanced one; blacks themselves can be slaves to a perverted materialism rather than champions of freedom, prone to color prejudice of their own, to romanticizing the sensuality and sleaziness of urban black life, and to apologizing for having been victimized in the past. Yet, having accepted all that, it remains true that "in this most hostile nation," her black sisters and brothers are not really free citizens who enjoy equal job opportunities and who can vote without harassment or partake of other basic rights of American life. Therefore, along...

My experience was exquisite and I hope to repeat it. I was there Nov. 20 and whomever was "in the kitchen" rocked! Scallops! omg...The ambience is rich and the bill proves it. <3 the place for a nice date
I can't believe it. My wife and I went to breakfest at I-Hop on North Academy Saturday morning and was served by a young kid named Bobby. He had such great customer service we couldn't believe it! We talked about it all day while shopping at Chapel Hills Mall. On our way home we stopped at Texas Roadhouse in Monument and deceided to have lunch. Who do we see waiting on us again, it was Bobby who served us for breakfest! This young kid must really work hard! He told us that he is working two jobs so he can pay for college. If you stop at either I-Hop or Texas Roadhouse besure to ask for Bobby's section. As my wife puts it " He's such a sweet kid". Awesome Job Bobby!
Awesome service and fantastic food. Can't go wrong.
Where to start, the building itself was beautiful: then there was the food, which was ,at best, as good as the food you could get in the trash at Denny's. It was over priced as well. All the products used in each dish were either frozen or canned. If they have a chef he is at best incompetent. The management was not accommodating and rude. Furthermore if you are going nickle and dime the customers your food should at least be eatable. Never have i had my kids, at a restaurant, attempt to eat kraft mac and cheese and pre-frozen french fries for $6.00. Not one entree came with a salad, soup, or bread and they charged $10 for sharing a rack of ribs. The steaks were over seasoned and over priced for the amount of food and their vegetables tasted like dishwater and were stringy. Not only will I never ever go back there but I will tell everyone of my experience in the the hopes that I can prevent them from an over priced disappointment. I wish that I knew the aaa reviewer that gave them the 1 diamond rating so I could suggest he might take it back. Written most sincerely by a very disappointed local chef with plenty experience in the food and beverage industry.
I personally ate at Zane's dozens of times. The food was great! I never got sick. I have many friends who ate there. Same story. Great food. Since the owners were the same folks who operate Mason Jar, the quality of the food has been successfully experienced by thousands of Colorado Springs people. The reason Zane's failed is because the owners did not have the money for an expensive downtown location. It sounds to me like snephtar has a high stress personality, and probably made himself sick. The fact that no other food quality complaints were filed should cause snephtar to rethink his position.
ZANE'S STEAKHOUSE SUCKED- ZANE'S GAVE ME FOOD POISONING (I have the credit card receipt and the Emergency Room documents) AND IS NOW CLOSED. I GUESS THAT SAYS IT ALL. THE FAMOUS HAS EXCELLENT FOOD, ATMOSPHERE AND WAIT STAFF. I think "SmartestMonkey" needs to rethink his/her name because you are truly an effing moron. The meal was "expensive" at Zane's because of the ER co-pay, Einstein.
G-MAN 07-28-2011 Last night my wife & I sat down @ 6:19 pm, ordered a bottle of Fat Tire & 2 ice teas. They brought to the table rolls & 2-3oz. bowls of beans. The waitress said the rolls & beans are complimentary no extra cost to you, kind of like chips & salsa at some the Mexican restaurants, so far so good for our first time being there. My wife ordered the open face roast beef sandwich with gravy & I ordered 24 wings & a bake potato, I would consider this order being rather simple to prepare in my house hold or anywhere else. An hour later, plus four apologies later still no meal! There were only 6 tables occupied to include ours when we sat down, with 6 other table empty & no one at the bar which sets about 10 people. I would not consider this being overly busy. At 7:30 pm my 24 wings appeared, 5 minutes later the bake potato & my wife's sandwich had not been delivered as of yet. We got up to leave & I went to kitchen window where the waitress was waiting for the next order. I told the waitress that we were leaving & not paying for anything. The service was not good & the wait was way too long for what we ordered & you're not even busy. The waitress came out to the car & said" we had to pay for the drinks". I said "I will pay for the beer & the ice teas should be complimentary for how long we waited!" I started towards the door to go inside & to pay for the beer. The waitress pops her head out the door before I could enter to say "my manager wants to talk to you outside." So I waited, an oriental woman appeared outside to tell me "I had to pay for all the drinks." I said "I will not pay for the ice teas as long as we had to wait!" She said "Yu are bad man" commenced to writing down my vehicle tag #. I told the lady "don't worry about writing my tag # down, my wife & I work in Law Enforcement, so I will call for a Sheriff's Deputy to come file a non-emergency report about this event. The manager / oriental lady huffed & stormed back into the restaurant. Deputy Post arrived 5 minutes later to resolve the issue. Officer Post reminded me that there is a law called theft by receiving. I told him, "that I would pay for the drinks, it shouldn't be more than $10.00", he kind of agreed. He returned with a ticket asking for $19.60, which indicated that the rolls & beans cost $5.00, so much for being complimentry. I paid the manager with my debit card so there would be a recorder of the transaction, as I passed my debit card to her, I said "that this is not a dead issue, your parking lot & the street outside are a public forum for which I will be protesting, I will be writing to the editor of Pueblo Chieftan/Pueblo West View about this event, I will be filing a compliant with BBB & the Pueblo County business licensing department. She said, Yu very Bad Man do whatever! So much for a Quick meal & a Quite evening after a long hard day at work @ 8:00 pm, now!!!This event lasted a 1 hour & 40 minutes by the time we got home, home is less than 5 minutes away, by which we could have eaten at any other restaurant in Pueblo twice & been treated appropriately by comping us in some way or another !!! Time well spent, Not!!!!!! Money well spent, Not!!! What is your opinion???
G-MAN 08-08-2011, Later in the day after posting the review below, I realized that we did not receive a copy of ticket & only had the debit receipt. I decided to stop by Black Barts Steakhouse @ 2:30 pm after work & I was in my dress down uniform. When I entered the restaurant, I stayed at the end of the bar closest to the entrance, while a young oriental girl got me a copy of last night's ticket showing what I was exactly charged for totaling $19.60. While waiting, I noticed that there was a menu sitting on the bar & it was open to the appetizers & sides page. At the top of the page it clearly said that the rolls & beans are free for the taken. Meanwhile the young girl appeared with ticket showing that I was charged for 2- full side orders of beans, $5.00 each totaling $10.00 for the beans, 1-Fat Tire beer, $3.50 & 2-Ice Teas, $2.75 each totaling $5.50 & $.60 tax for a grand total of $19.60. By the way, we never ordered any beans, nor did we receive a regular full order of beans. So much for paying for what we, consumed. It sounds like to me they gave themselves a hefty tip, instead. Friday Aug 5th, at 5:30 pm, 2-Pueblo Sheriffs Deputies rang my door bell. They identified themselves & I did the same. They said that on Thursday July 28th, somebody from Black Barts Steakhouse called them about me stopping by. They reported to the officers that, I was very intimidating in my uniform & asked them to inform me that I was not welcome back. I told the officers that, I only returned to get an itemized ticket of the actual charges, since only receiving a debit receipt the evening before. I asked the Officers, why are you only telling me this a week later. They indicated that, I was not there when they arrived & were too busy the rest of the week, until now. I told the Officers that the reason I was there even 10 minutes, was because the young girl had to call someone on the phone, in order to get me a copy of the charges. I wasn't courteous or rude while I was there & left promptly. After a close review of the actual charges, Black Bart's charged me for 2-full orders of beans $5.00 a bowl as listed a the bottom of the menu, under sided orders. My wife & I only consumed the complimentary rolls & 3oz. dish of beans. I told the Officers, that I had written a letter to the Editor of the Pueblo Chieftain/Pueblo West View early in the day. I guess, I will be writing them again with a follow-up story of today's events. These people simply need to close their business or learn how a business treats it's customers.
Decent happy hour menu and drinks, but dining is hit or miss, depending on who is working in the kitchen. There are other places to get a decent steak.
We ordered two prime NY strips at approx 40 bucks each. Very disappointed with the quality and did not even finish. The manager did take some $$ off the bill. Wines were good...
DO NOT STAY OR EAT HERE! Don't let the ambiance fool you. If you go in you'll notice very few customers if any. This should've been my first clue. The locals obviously don't eat here for good reason. The food is absolutely disgusting and overpriced. The service is subpar. And the owner is a total slime ball, with a bad attitude, which has very shoddy/deceptive business practices. I held my wedding reception here and my father, who paid for it is absolutely furious and embarrassed by the food that was served to our guests. We wouldn't even serve this stuff to our dogs. It took two hours for them to serve us. We asked the waitress for our drinks, she would nod and say okay but never wrote it down and then didn't bring the drinks back and we had to ask again. The soda was served in red-plastic cups instead of glasses. I wanted one glass of wine and was told that I had to order an entire bottle or they wouldn't serve it to me. I couldn't even have a glass of wine at my own wedding reception. My grandmother asked for hot herbal tea and they told her they couldn't do that. They severed rolls that were hard as a rock and obviously not baked on site. They didn't even provide plates for the rolls. The dinnerware they did us on was old, chipped, faded and of poor quality. The salad was swimming in dressing. I sent mine back. We chose Mahi-Mahi with Mango Salsa and Pork "Medallions" as our entrees. The "mango-salsa" was not freshly prepared. It was obvious that it came straight out of a jar. I love mangoes and this did not taste like mango at all. The pork was not served with gravy or any other sauce. Both the fish and the pork chops were overcooked and dried out and chewy. The broccoli was cooked to death, it was mushy and inedible. The twice baked potatoes tasted like they'd been baked three or four times. They had no cheese, no chives, no sour cream, and no butter – not even salt. I don't think they even mashed the filling with milk. It was almost like they baked the potatoes, scooped out the flesh and then just stuffed it back in. All the food in general had no flavor what-so-ever. I took one bite of each thing and pushed my plate away as did many of my guests. And only one person asked for a take home container. The majority of our guests left early in order to go get an edible meal somewhere else. And we ended up going to eat at a late night diner afterwards. Not only did we have the reception here my father also paid for several hotel rooms for wedding guests at the adjoined Rhodeway Inn owned by the same man. He refused to give any kind of discount and is now also refusing to return the deposit. In addition to this my Maid of Honor who stayed at the Inn overheard him talking about his hotel guests while he was picking up a few stray rocks from the landscaping; he said something to the effect of "people's stupid (expletive) kids and their terrible (expletive) parents". If he hates his customers so much he should probably get out of the hospitality industry. This man ruined the most important night of my life. Please do not let him do it to you.
This is a casual, fun place to go. The wings are the best I've had since leaving the east coast... The beer prices are great - $3 for a 16oz. fat tire is their regular price!!
Decent food but the atmosphere mimics a train wreck. Incredibly noisy. Go elsewhere.
The steaks and fish there are great. Great atmosphere, friendly folks working there, plenty of parking, nice place over all. The only thing is sometimes, like most popular restaurants, it can get very crowded.
Great food and terrific prices in a laid back fun atmosphere. A good time!!
While steaks makes up most of their signature dishes, I prefer their seafood specials. Generally creative and full of innovative flavor. Love the fireplace on those cold winter nights.
