Hugo's Frog Bar & Fish House - Naperville
Online Reservations
We go to Hugo's Frog several times a year to celebrate special occaisions. The food is terrific. Service is always great. Atmosphere upscale. We love it. Prices reasonably matched to the excellent quality. There is valet so no fighting for parking. All around great time!!!
The staff was welcoming and made good recommendation on what to eat. I always have the bookbinder soup when it is offered and the person I was with had it for the first time and enjoyed it as well. I did not feel rushed and was able to have an enjoyable time.
Hugo's Frog always has quality food, great service. We know what to expect and enjoy the food. Our server did a good job. We have been there before in large groups. This time, we were celebrating our wedding anniversary. It was a Tuesday evening, and there was a good crowd.
Muscles were outstanding, loved the taste and oh the rest of the meal was just as good. Service was very good, professional and attentive! We'd definitely recommend Hugo's... By the way... The frog legs were amazing!
Loud, hip, OVERpriced compared to Sullivan's. Further - in nice weather, When the band is playing outside it is far too high in decibels for dining.....
This place was packed and very noisy on a Friday night. The menu isn't as large as the Chicago location but it was a lovely meal, nonetheless.
Great hit with out of town guests - seafood was terrific
The food was incredible. The server was very attentive to our needs. Love Hugo's. Have been there many times and never disappointed.
Tonight was one of the the best overall dining experience , from beginning to end that I have had at Hugos. Kudos to the superior management, servers and their workers, chef, and bar staff who created a deliciously memorable evening.
Food was wonderful and our server Christina was superb. Can't wait to have a reason to return.
Superb food and bar tending; service was prompt and timely. Very lively--not for quiet dining, but a great find for a road-weary warrior.
My husband and I took two couples to dinner here. We lice the place and constantly rave a out the great food and dining atmosphere. Needless to say, they were impresses. Everything from the drinks, appetizer to the entre, were excellent.
Food was good. Service was very attentive especially given the crowd on Friday night. The acoustics make it tough to hear each other which is my only complaint.
They the stuffed shrimp. All I have to say is that they are amazing! Won't be disappointed at all
The food was awesome, slightly pricy but well worth it. Excellent food! The waiter staff was extremely friendly and attentive. Only complaint I would have is that it was very noisy in the restaurant.
The restaurant was packed but we were seated right on time for our reservation. The service and food were both great. The piano player in the bar was great but did carry over a little too loud into the main dining room.
Hugo's exceeded our expectations. Went there on a Saturday night and was pleased that even with reservations our wait was only about 10 minutes. When we were seated near the back of the restaurant at a table where the noise level seemed a little high we requested a booth and they were happy to accommodate us with only an additional 5 minute wait. The menu had a nice variety including seafood, steaks, lamb chops etc; and was all prepared with nice flavor and presentation. The service was outstanding with the waitress being attentive to all our needs. The pricing was high but you did receive good value for the prices being paid. Overall we will be back. Nice job Hugo's in Naperville.
Food and service were wonderful and the server was very personable and accommodating!! Happy I celebrated my birthday at Hugo's!
5 star food and service in a relaxed vibrant enviroment
Hugo's did a great job recreating their downtown Rush Street venue. The bar was great to sit and have a drink prior to supper. The bartenders were friendly and on top of their game. No matter which bartender helped us, they all made great martini's. As always the food was great, although they do not have the stuffed lobster like the downtown venue. We were a bit dissapointed in the table service however. We watched our server pass by our table many times and float to the tables in which there were older groups that were more well dressed than us. Apparently the server thought he would get a bigger tip from them.
The subject says it all. Greatest steak I have ever had. Great salad and wait staff. Can't wait to move to Naperville in a few months so we can eat there all the time :)
We had a 7:30 reservation and we got seated pretty quick. We had some amazing martinis. Everything we ordered was amazing. Our server Bonnie was very attentive and sweet. She checked on our table often and offer suggestions on many menu items. I have eaten there many times and the service has always been great even when its crowded.
The complimentary bread (variety) they give you was delicious. We each had a cup of soup ~ clam chowder & Bookbinders were both very good. The loaded wedge salad was large with plenty of blue cheese crumbles, bacon, tomatoes & blue cheese dressing (enough for two people to share). The filet mignon sliders (ordered by the piece for about $5 each) are tender & juicy. The sliders are served on fresh sesame bun & come with homemade potato chips. The frog leg appetizer (6 of them) are served with a very flavorful garlic/butter sauce. The beer selection was large. The service was good. We will bring friends here for dinner in the future.
At the recommendation of the waitress we had the crab claws that were flown in same day, (i.e. never frozen) Wow! Spectacular and I thought the regular crab claws were fantastic. Thanks for nice evening.
Food was just fabulous! Drinks were pretty good too! Service great and a nice atmosphere. Can't wait to go again soon.
This was my first time at this restaurant. We had a restaurant.com coupon and decided to try it. We were pleasantly surprised. We received great service and the food was outstanding. Prices were a little high, but the coupon helped. I would return if I had another coupon.
The food was good as always, and our server was attentive and efficient. The crabcake appetizer was outstanding as was the whitefish.
Salmon was very fresh and perfectly cooked, as were the green beans. Pumpkin cheesecake was yummy, and the waiter let us know that the desserts were big enough to share, so we didn't waste money on a 2nd dessert.
Actually I have never ordered Furecracker shrimp for myself. On this day I ordered the club sandwich. Good bug not that interesting. My friend ordered the Firecracker Shrimo and I fell in love. I cannot wait to go back so I can order it. Yum! The waiter was excellent and we had a great time at lunch but it's very crowded in there. It feels cramped and it's always loud. But I have never had a bad meal and unless you are going for quiet and romantic. It's not a bad choice.
Everything was wonderful, including the staff being beyond helpful on chosing the correct dish. Great place and night out.
The service at Hugo's was a class act! It was amazing! Food excellent and great wine suggested by our waiter. The smiles on all the waiters and everyone who worked there was so nice to see. Thank you! We never felt rushed at all. Our waiter was one of the best I have ever experienced anywhere! Fun atmosphere and lively throughout the night. Wish we could have stayed in bar area and listened to piano music, but we had to leave. Thank you!
we decided to go to Hugo's at the last minute, but were able to get Fri 6pm reservations. The staff was ready for us. They have LOTS of staff, so the service is extraordinary. Head waiter checked up twice on our table. Filet medallions were very good, clam chowder had lots of clam, very good. This place is hopping and energetic, but not noisy. The staff is upbeat and you can joke around with them. Very friendly and eager to please. Just a fun place to go and to get good food.
We have had many great dinners at Hugo's but I wanted to highlight the excellent dinner that we had this past weekend. Skuna Bay Salmon with beets and sweet potato puree - fit perfectly for the season the season!
We had our 39th anniversary & chose your place to celebrate. The food was fantastic! The filet Mignon melted in our mouth! Best steak we ever had! All servers were knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful with our dinner selections. We really appreciated the time the owner/ took to stop by each table and see if everything was ok.
We went to dinner with our Son and Daughter in law to celebrate their birthdays. My wife had the lobster which she said was one the best she ever had. My Son had the rib eye with mashed potatoes with a gravy that was legendary. My daughter in law and I had the tuna with a panco crust/white bean puree which was done perfectly and was also highly recommended. Overall, service (Bonnie was outstanding), food, atmosphere, drinks - EVERYTHING WAS GREAT!!!
We had a very nice dinner within an hour and were able to attend the Symphony within the allotted time we had. Thank you for the great service and delicious food.
Food was really good. I got the petite filet mignon which came with an ample amount of mashed potatoes and green beens.
whether for business or pleasure I find Hugo's Frog Bar a treat for myself and guests alike. Service is always top notch and the solid and varied menu is always delicious. there is great energy in the bar and the restaurant and the restaurant is a local "place to be seen"
We had a great wine and both got fish. The fish was prepared flawlessly.
Food and service are terrific. The management is truly interested in you and your dining experience. Love it!
Every year on Black Friday, I have a "girls day out" with my adult daughters where we have lunch and then shop. We all enjoyed the food, ambiance and service here so much that I think it will become our place to go each year.
We came for a girls lunch, it was so enjoyable. The lobster roll was excellent. I had made a reservation ahead and we were seated immediately on arrival. It was a special day for my daughter! Thank you.
Food was amazing!!!! Don't leave without trying A Moscow mule or three! Service was great..all Around amazing experience!
We had a wonderful evening celebrating our son's 15th birthday. We were running late for our 4:30 dinner reservation and Haley; the hostess was kind enough to hold our table until 5:00. Every aspect of the evening was perfect.
Seriously such a great experience! My significant other and I dined at Hugo's for an anniversary dinner, and left happy and about five pounds heavier, in the best way possible. Having lived in Florida for most of my life, I have to say that I was VERY impressed by the seafood selection. I ordered the king crab stuffed shrimp, which came in a pan full of lemon butter...TO DIE FOR! My s/o order the wild roasted pike, which was cooked to perfection. The desserts are unbelievable, and very sharable. Two can split for a a very satisfying portion, three can have a light after-dinner treat without a problem. We went around 9 on a Saturday night, and were 45 minutes early to a 9:45 reservation. They were able to accommodate us immediately! A+!
Typical Hugo's experience, great food, great atmosphere, great service. Just try picking an appetizer...one that is. With so many great choices, you might fill the table with appetizers and just pass the food around! For a real treat, try the frog legs. I think the appropriate description is "Yum". I had the crab cakes for my main course, another house specialty. They are, well, they're crab in a cake, without all the fillers and other fun stuff that most restaurants offer in their cakes. My lady has the shrimp dejonghe, another great choice, perfectly peeled, perfectly cooked, perfectly tasty. As expected. Can't wait to go back!
Took my wife out for her birthday. Everything was top notch from making reservations to desert. This is a great restaurant to have in Naperville.
Great ambiance and attentive staff. Great food. A sure bet for a pleasant experience.
My first visit was extremely happy with the service and food. Would recommend for special occasion, business dinner.
The food was fabulous and service was great. Our server was attentive and brought out a sample tray of assorted steaks from which to choose and explained how the lobster is prepared. Hugo's is very community minded and works with many not-for-profits in the area. It's nice to know that such a successful restaurant gives back to the community that made them so. Year-round, Hugo's is a great place to be. Will always go back.

✔ Interview with Stever Robbins - Productive! Show #60
Three years after interviewing Stever Robbins for Productive! Magazine #6 I talk to him again. Famous Get-It-Done-Guy speaks on his shift from micro-tips to macro-things like: approaching yourself, your wife, your career; on abandoning the idea of life goals and picking up the idea of live-coaching show. To learn more, watch the interview! Please, forgive the poor quality of the video. I hope the discussion itself will make up for it.

✔ I, NO robot. Android or iPhone or iPad? It's beyond specs, let's talk privacy.
There's this movie with Will Smith: "I, Robot". Well, I just got rid of my Nexus S and Nexus 7 devices (gave them to my team - they'll do the testing of Nozbe) and I can safely say: "I, NO robot." I'm not using any Android device anymore and I won't be doing it in the future. And not just because I'm #iPadOnly and I use my iPhone as both the wallet and phone. It's beyond the technology, my Apple-fanboy status or specs. It's about my lack of trust in Google as far as my personal information is concerned. It's about my right to privacy:
Recently I had a few conversations with some of my friends about how Android OS improved over the years and in many ways matches iOS and how the Android phones and tablets are better spec'd in many ways than their iOS counterparts. Apart from my personal conviction that the iPhone is a better phone (Aluminum vs plastic, touch-ID vs pin codes) and iPad is a better tablet (screen, weight, aluminum... design... and apps), what I realized is that when comparing the two platforms, we only talk about specs and design... what we don't talk about are the underlying differences between the two companies that power our devices: Google vs Apple. Here goes:

✔ Interview with Marten Mickos for the Productive! Magazine #15 - Productive! Show #59
On the special occasion of re-launching and re-designing the Productive! Magazine - and after almost a year, publishing a new issue - #15, I interviewed Mårten Mickos, the former CEO of MySQL and the present CEO of Eucalyptus Systems. Mårten is my guru in terms of distributed team management. In 2008 he led a team of 500 people, 70% of whom worked remotely in 110 major locations in 32 countries and across 18 time zones. The video chat you are about to watch was a great inspiration to me. If you wish to learn more about Mårten's approach to running a business and managing the biggest teleworking company in the world check out the latest (15th) issue of Producitve! Magazine.

✔ Online Business Productivity - book of the week by Timo Kiander
A few months ago Timo Kiander also known as Productive Superdad approached me with an idea of a book - a compilation of interviews with some of productivity experts out there. He did an interview with me and his new book: "Online Business Productivity" is out today. And I'm proud to be a part of it. And I totally recommend this book:
In the book you'll find a great introduction by Laura Stack and 19 essays by really a bunch of fantastic people. I had a blast being interviewed by Timo and based on our chat he created a great piece on me with some of the best pieces of advice I ever gave. A few examples:

✔ Book of the week - Remote by 37signals
There is a new book by 37signals and it's called "Remote". After "Rework" (my review here) I was very excited to be reading this book... especially that my company works remotely. I work from home. Everyone else as well. We actually have no office. Anyway, got the audiobook from Audible:
Before I dive into the book, let me just say two things.
- I finished my university degree in 2003 with a thesis on Virtual Enterprise and Teleworking... so the subject matter is known very well to me. Shortly thereafter I started my company with the goal of working remotely all of the time. This way I could travel, live in different parts of Europe and basically follow my wife's career with my laptop (now the iPad :-)).
- Second thing, I love the 37signals guys. I got to know them through their second (now closed) service called "Backpack" and inspired by what they did I built Nozbe as a way of making a GTD-compatible Backpack.
So there you have it, I have a long history with both the subject matter and the authors. I actually visited them in Chicago to pay my tribute to them and interviewed Jason Fried for the Productive! Magazine. Now, back to the book:

✔ iPad is just a PC? A kinda PC without keyboard? Or is it?
A few days ago I received a very nice email from one of #iPadOnly book readers - Jean-Michel: "I just subscribed to #ipadOnly, but it is because I'm not convinced at all :)" and he said that basically computers are just generic tools, like swiss-army knives... and that iPad is just a mobile computer, and because it lacks keyboard it's actually even a little worse than the "traditional" computers.
Great points, good questions. Let me address these in this post (writing on my iPad Air with iPad mini keyboard attached to it :-)
As you can read in my intro to the #iPadOnly book I was involved with the computers for a very long time. I got my first IBM PC XT when I was 10 and now I'm 34 so it's been a long ride. I switched to Mac in late 2008 and to the iPad in early 2012. That's why I have some background and prior experience with various computing setups and that's why I really believe the iPad is DIFFERENT than a traditional computer and it's changing the way we're approaching computing. For three big reasons. Let me explain:

✔ This is our Independence Day!
95 years ago today, Poland re-appeared on the map of Europe. After it had been divided and torn between three countries (Germany, Austria and Russia) for 123 years, at the end of World War I, Poland reemerged as a country again. Today I'm free, I am allowed to speak Polish, I can travel to virtually any country I want, live in any EU country without any problem... and I have close friends in the countries that used to be the enemies. It's just so amazing if you think about it.
Why am I reminding you about this today? Why am I really celebrating this day?
Because today I'm enjoying and taking for granted the freedom that my fellow Poles were fighting for not even 100 years ago... and I'm just thankful. So thankful for it.
And there are several reasons for that:

In the interview, Michael explains what exactly is a great work and why a good work isn't as good as one would think. We also talk about the challenges and fear related to doing a great work and... how great it is to be called Michael :)

Seeing a partner's baby photos is a rite of passage in a relationship, second only to visiting the bowling alley they grew up in. Polish up your memories with this Groupon.
$29 for $100 Worth of Custom Photo Books
Customers use their own images to personalize photo books available in softcover ($40+), Imagewrap ($65+), debossed ($70+), and Pro Series styles ($300+). Readybook templates provide photo collectors with free, pre-designed layouts in themes for all occasions, and the photo-book designer helps to place photos.
Photobook America
Customers can transform digital photographs into elegant coffee-table books with the help of Photobook America's intuitive photo-book-designer program. Each book is handmade with superior-quality materials, such as linen, silk, leather, and newt skin, all available in a variety of striking colors. Accessories, such as slipcases and presentation boxes, can add a dash of pizzazz to each order, and acid-free paper ensures long-lasting photo quality. Orders are typically completed within five to seven business days, ensuring that customers will be able to promptly obtain their own memorable keepsake book and avoid carving sentimental images into a wall-mounted etch-a-sketch.
Photobook America
Photobook America requires nothing from its clients but their photos and a bit of creativity. The company is the facilitator—it has the software, designs, and professional-grade covers, printers, and binding to turn clients' photos into personalized albums that are carefully constructed and tastefully designed.
The first step is settling on a theme: photo books can document a wedding or family vacation or serve as a portfolio for a business or artist. If customers wish, they can design their book from scratch; otherwise, they can select a template from Photobook America's Readybooks library. The company enables clients to upload their photos, edit them to their liking, and select the type of cover they'd like, with image-wrapped, softcover, or debossed options for the exterior. Their photos and design choices then materialize in the form of a professionally bound, vibrantly colored photo book that preserves their memories in a tasteful and durable volume that would fit right in on the coffee table or beside Uncle Larry's taxidermied Shakespeare busts.

Live Earth, organizer of The Dow Live Earth Run for Water, today announced that Berlin has been selected as a host city – 60 cities and 40 countries are confirmed to host an event – with Bash Events and four.in.one selected to produce the Berlin event and Arche Nova identified as the NGO partner to receive funds raised in Germany. The Dow Live Earth Run for Water is a series of 6 km run/walks (the average distance many women and children walk every day to get water) that will culminate in a water education village taking place on April 18th to raise awareness and funds to help solve the global water crisis.
You can register for the Dow Live Earth Run for Water Berlin run/walk today at http://liveearth.org/berlin. All participants will receive a free online ActiveTrainer plan to help them prepare for the event. Ten percent of all registration fees go directly to Arche Nova.
Water scarcity is an issue affecting countries, communities and families all over the world. One in eight people don't have access to safe, clean drinking water. Eighty-eight percent of diarrheal cases worldwide are linked to inadequate and unsafe water. These cases result in 1.5 million deaths each year, mostly among children under five. In these areas, women and children are forced to walk 6 km (3.7 miles) each day to secure water that is likely unsuitable for drinking.
The Dow Live Earth Run for Water is a global movement focused on the actions individuals can take to effectively address the issue. People are encouraged to START solving the problem today, RUN in a Dow Live Earth Run for Water run/walk in their community or organize their own run/walk through the Friends of Live Earth program, SAVE water in their home and local community through conservation efforts, GIVE money to support clean, safe water projects and SPEAK UP by signing the Live Earth petition to add water as a basic human right to the U.N. Declaration of Human Rights.
"Building on the massive success of the Live Earth: Concerts for a Climate in Crisis in 2007, the Dow Live Earth Run for Water will mobilize the global community to once again come together on one day and take action on one of the most serious environmental issues today, the global water crisis," said Kevin Wall, founder and CEO of Live Earth. "Water scarcity affects everyone whether they are aware of it or not, and the goal of the Dow Live Earth Run for Water is to raise the profile of this issue, educate the world's citizens about its challenges and offer opportunities to be part of the solution."
For more information about the Dow Live Earth Run for Water, visit http://liveearth.org/run. For more information on the Berlin event visit http://liveearthberlin.de.
"As the title sponsor for the Dow Live Earth Run for Water, Dow is committed to bringing the science, technology and "human element" it will take to help solve one of the world's greatest challenges – the global water crisis," said Ian Barbour, general manager at Dow Water & Process Solutions, a business unit of Dow. "On April 18, 2010, Dow's 46,000 employees will join people from around the world to help millions of people around the world gain access to safe, clean drinking water."

Conjure the magnificent blue-green water of a mountain lake with chrysocolla's unique aqua hues. An oval cabochon of the chrysocolla gem takes the spotlight in this bracelet, with pear-shaped emerald gems on either side, representing the lush greenery guarding the calm water. Glimmering between the gems in a swooping and swirling open scrollwork design is highly polished sterling silver. The cuff bracelet measures 1" wide. Made in America with gemstones from around the world.
Nestled among the high peaks of the Adirondacks is a deep cool lake named for the serenity of its shores. Chrysocolla's shimmering depths of color and accents of emerald recreate this landscape awash in blues and greens, while sculptural sterling silver unfolds around the gemstones like the alpine skyline around the lake.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the natural gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

i have a duel side wood/heating fuel furnace with all plastic hose throughout the house for heat and hot water.My problem is no matter how hot the water is it doesn't heat all 3 house zones.If i turn the fuel side on it heats the zones but it blows the pressure valve on the back of the furnace.we have tried bleeding furnace and lines nothing seems to help so far.No heating techs have had the same opinion on our problem so far.What can we do??? | |||
we see a lot of questions about this all-in-one deal that is supposed to provide general hot water as well as heating hot water. there are two different types of usage here, and summary that I have seen indicates that the system won't do it all correctly. the techs need to go back to manufacturer technical support and make sure the right parts are on this unit. I have a sneaking suspicion that you have got an oversized burner adjustment and/or a wrong pressure relief valve. but it could involve other parts, as I will explain later. changing the burner nozzle to reduce the gallons/hour rating will reduce the heat rating and should deal with the overpressure. assuming that the furnace was sized right, and you are pulling the right amount of demand from the unit. which gets to sizing and how the zone controls are enabling the furnace. this is straining my knowledge, but if you pull heat from 3 zones, you are returning way colder water to the boiler than if one zone only was calling for heat. the boiler has to burn longer, and the water going up to the pumps and to the zones is going to get cooler and cooler. until one zone cuts out, then the next. if the burner continues to cook for one zone as it does for three zones, you are definitely getting hotter water, and perhaps raising heat/pressure until the safeties pop. what do you have for an accumulator tank, and is it sized right are two other important questions. I have a very light knowledge based on commercial (hospital) heating with 400 HP boilers across the street. there are banks of accumulator tanks for every zone, and everything is designed for pressures over 500 psi. still the safeties, which go through the roof of the boiler plant, will pop off occasionally. roars like a train in a tunnel. this is why I say tech support from the vendor needs to be brought in, and perhaps supplied with some logged temp information. stumbling bozos playing with that thing are not what you want.This message has been edited. Last edited by: swschrad, sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money? | ||||
THANK YOU for the info. The vendor of my oil/wood furnace no longer responds to my emails asking for help or information, i would even be willing to hire someone he recommends to work on the system even though he is not local. I am not sure what the accumulator tank is, is it the expansion tank? I have had the system for about 5 years now and it worked well for about the first 2 years. I have not found a heating tech that i feel is knowledgeable about the system and none have mentioned contacting the manufacturer which makes a lot of sense. The last tech, which was last week changed the expansion tank after i complained about the 007 circulator pump on the basement zone making a strange noise and being very hot, i had no heat in the basement and still have no heat in the basement. This tech wants to bring in a second tech to help him change the pump, i will not be asking this tech to work on my system again! | ||||
yeah, accumulator = expansion tank. which safety is popping off for you, for the potable hot water or the heating loops? if it's the potable (tub/shower) hot water, if there's not an expansion tank there, you should have one on this type of system. it would be my sure preference, based on my old maintenance helper days, to have the popoffs drain straight above a floor drain, and have one of those "doggie cone" drain covers on it to reduce splashing.This message has been edited. Last edited by: swschrad, sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money? | ||||
I believe its the tub/shower water thats popping because its the pipe that comes out the top of the furnace and then goes down the back of the furnace and ends about 6 inches above the floor.The exp tank that we have is about 3 gallons in size.The bladder in it is about half way down inside it.That also sits above the furnace and off to the side about a foot away.One of the techs that we had working on this said it would be a better idea to have a whole bank of dump zone piping.Dont know if thats such a a good idea?? | ||||
I'd go up to a 12 gallon tank and see if that solves the issue. ideally you would have a professional plumber evaluate the situation and make a recommendation. a 3 gallon expansion tank is probably only good for a light expansion of a gallon or so before you start getting into a popoff situation. and check the valve against code in that area. that safety system needs to be looked at as a system, not fiddle with pieces until the floor stays dry. that could end up with a blowout. last one I saw pictures of in the newspaper was an 80 gallon electric heater that blew a 2 story house apart. sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money? | ||||
it all boils down to balancing the system. on the return side of each zone is a balancing valve its a ball val;ve with numbers on it. also refered to as a circuit setter if your valves are wide open. the water is flowing to fast thru the zone to heat the area properly. you have hot water but its going to fast. locate your zone valves. they should be all togather beside the boiler. and if installed correctly be marked as to what valve serves what zone. you can try and throttle them down by your self. but you really need a tech. [like me] to put gages on it and set the gpms correctly call your local hvac guy, tell him you have a hydronic system that may need to be balanced you only need to have around 30 psi on your system, depending on length of piping and sq ft of house any more than that you will pop off your t&p valves. sounds like your doing that already turn the pressure down,slow the water down. its ambient heat...not forced airThis message has been edited.

It allows players to live out their dreams of ruling one of the great realms of Tamriel and leading their dynasty through it's various eras and challenges. While still effectively a Work-In-Progress Project, Elder Kings still offers one of the biggest gameplay experiences available for a released CK2 mod! - Please note that the mod is currently not compatible with the latest version of CK2. A new version of the mod will be released sometime this year, but there is currently no known ETA, the Dev team has basically disbanded and the mod is now down to 1 coder, and 2 artists, so things will understandably take a bit to get completed. Thanks for your understanding.

Take the college student survey to share your opinions about your school and be entered into a $1,000 scholarship!
Reload the page and try again.
A+ A+F Athletics: Our college is huge in their sports and varsity teams. We have one of the best riding and hockey teams in the nation. There is plenty of school spirit and support at each event.
B A+F Drug Safety: Drugs aren't big here but you do occasionally meet people that do.
F A+F Campus Dining: The food is absolutely horrible. It is impossible to find something to eat. I would never eat at the school if i didn't have to. The chicken tastes like 20 year old rubber. Avoid at all costs.
C A+F Weather: It is very cold and snowy from the months of November to April. Although it is cold the campus is close and all the buildings are always heated. The snow is always managed so it is safe to walk around and class is never canceled.
A+ A+F Facilities: While being in the middle of a distant farm land area St. Lawrence's campus has a lot to offer. The gym and athletic facilities are amazing and many of the student body are athletic. The classrooms are small and personal and provide a chance to learn and interact with peers. The student center is always busy with smiles and providing a place to study and eat!
A- A+F Nightlife: The nightlife at St. Lawrence has a little bit of everything for all types of people. There are a few bars and dance places, but there is also the Java Barn which hosts jam bands and provides a great place to dance and relax. The senior townhouses and some theme houses provide good and safe parties. There isn't much of a reason or want to ever leave campus because it is pretty much all there for you.
A+ A+F Majors: At St. Lawrence University every program is small and personal so you get to know your major, professors, and peers. All of those components make each major special and unique to you.
A- A+F Majors: Once you choose a major its really easy to declare, and once you declare you pick a new advisor who is specific to the major and helps you throughout the whole process.
A A+F Majors: There are a lot of great majors at St. Lawrence and the professors who head the majors really help students develop knowledge, interest, and experience. The surrounding town of Canton serves great opportunities to enrich the experiences and internships that go along with ones major. Also, the excellent study abroad programs at the school serve as an enriching component to give you the best diverse knowledge with your major.
A+ A+F Majors: There are so many internship opportunities as well as opportunities to work close with professors to really get into your major. St. Lawrence also provides a lot of excellent study abroad programs that enrich your mind and major. Canton is a small town but has a lot to offer for students to spend time within the town and honing in on their interest while also gaining experiences.
B- A+F Greek Life: Greek life isn't huge at SLU. It doesn't determine your social life if you are in a frat or sorority. Greek life has a lot of formals but otherwise its just another group of people on campus with a common interest.
A A+F Scholarships: There are financial services and financial aid offices on campus and they are notable for their quality. I personally received a merit-based scholarship for 28 hundred dollars and it is renewable! I was pleased, it helped that I applied for early acceptance and went for an interview before applying. Make it clear in your interview that you are interested in receiving a scholarship. On campus, you can apply for scholarships for just about everything under the sun. 85 PERCENT of all SLU students attend the school with some sort of financial aid!
A A+F Health & Safety: Safety and security at SLU is pretty good. There are plenty of 'blue boxes' with buttons and phones for emergencies. I think the best service is that there are safe walks available by request for on and off campus. I haven't had to use one yet so I hope that if I do in the future I will be met by someone quickly. My only critique is that sometimes security personnel in the office seem disinterested and aren't very helpful. But sometimes they go above and beyond!
A+ A+F Majors: I do not have concerns about finding more internships because SLU has one of the most notable Academic Services offices around, known for their plentiful internship resources and internship scholarships as well. I have had an internship through the Shadow a Saint program and it was the most ideal experience! I got to meet with professionals who have the exact position I want in the exact place where I want to work- The US Dept of State in DC!
A A+F Majors: I don't ever regret being a Multi-language major. It fits right in line with my goal of becoming a conference interpreter for the US government. I can't imagine being anything else and the classes in my major always challenge me and interest me. My only complaint is that I wish I had time to adopt another major. I have a Global Studies minor but I don't have the room in my schedule for anything else because I must spend time abroad and, unlike some other majors, my courses don't fulfill many other requirements.
A- A+F Academics: Being a Multi-Language major at SLU is pretty cool. You are able to form relationships with a variety of professors in the Modern Languages department, and they are all great. I think that there are two downsides: The first is that there are an unusual number of adjunct profs, making finding and keeping an academic adviser difficult. The second is that some language courses, like German, don't have beyond two levels of courses offered.
A A+F Campus Dining: The daily staples at the dining hall are reliable and better than at most colleges. The student involvement in local eating movements and awareness have reached into the meal plans so that it is easy to find out the source of your meal, and the expanding lunch options to accommodate crowded rush hours at the Pub have helped. The increasing class sizes will test the efficiency of these improvements but the overall dining options are still a step above most schools in terms of quality and flexibility.
B- A+F Diversity: The student body itself is relatively homogenous, so we do get a rep of being a preppy white kid school, but there is actually very little of the stuck up attitude implied in this stereotype. Though there is not a tremendous amount of diversity, the ethnic and racial diversity that is present on campus is accepted and celebrated, and there are always opportunities to express one's cultural heritage and celebrate that of fellow students.
A- A+F Campus Housing: My freshman dorm was actually pretty nice, though the kitchens were often pretty gross.
A A+F Majors: Choosing your major is fairly easy, especially if you have a major already in mind. St. Lawrence offers a lot of intro courses that can help you make a decision.
B+ A+F Scholarships: Apply for the Merit Scholarships, those will help if you receive one.
C+ A+F Weather: If you like the snow, cold, and own snow boots the weather will be fine! Fall is usually warm/cool, winter wet and snowing, and in the spring the ground is wet from snowmelt.
A A+F Parking: Don't worry about parking. Campus is small enough to walk across in 20 minutes. Most students who are freshmen or sophomores will leave their car in a parking lot a little further from their dorm. You don't really need a car to get to class, unless it's -50 outside.
C A+F Off-Campus Housing: Canton is a very small, rural town. Very few seniors get a chance to live in an apartment off-campus. I think you have to go through an approvals process with the administration in order to do it, too. On the other hand, most of the things that you want to do are on campus, not off, and there are senior townhouses are that are very nice. It's like getting an apartment, but on campus and without the hassle of rent or a landlord.
A- A+F Campus Housing: I think the campus housing options are really good and varied, which is impressive given the small size of St. Lawrence. Greek houses are a minority, which I think is good for the campus. Instead, we have theme housing. International House, Intercultural floor, Ray Ross house, Commons, Outing Club house, Greenhouse, Women's Resource house, La Casa, sports team suites, townhouses for seniors, and many, many more. There are also regular dorms for upperclassmen. First year students are assigned to a intro college course that they take with 30 other students that live in the same part of residence hall with them, which is nice because it gives you a base group of students - that you see in AND out of class - to start making friends with. Almost all of my closest friends are from my First Year Program. All but a handful of seniors live on campus because it's such a small town. I think the atmosphere benefits from that. There are always things to do on campus, from week-night activities to week-end parties. Sykes is the best dorm to live in because it's connected to the dining hall and is central to campus. Gaines is the dorm farthest from the center of campus, but it's a small school so even being "so far away" is only a five minute walk from the student center. Wifi is unlimited and available everywhere on campus. The student center is sweet and the Winston Room (like a mini-theater) shows new movies every weekend, as well as hosts raves and comedians. The housing process is a bit of a hassle to get through, and if you get a sucky housing number as a freshman, you might not get to choose the building you live in.

Written by Allison Talbot
One of the University's biggest detractors is its location; Canton is in the middle of farmland, and the nearest city is Montreal, at about two hours away. However, the location contributes to the community feel on campus, since students are there all of the time, and opens up opportunities for trips to Canada or the Adirondacks over breaks. Even so, many mourn the lack of off-campus entertainment and the difficulty of getting anywhere. Because of St. Lawrence's location and strong campus community, there is a tendency for students to get caught in the "SLU bubble." To resolve that problem, students should make a point to volunteer or take advantage of other opportunities in the surrounding area. Some classes have a community-based learning component, which gets students volunteering in the community in a way that contributes to their class experience. SLU expects students to not only be able to memorize facts, but to also be able to apply them to real world experiences. Volunteerism, study abroad, research opportunities, and internships are all part of SLU's hands-on approach to learning and a major focus of academics at the University.
Since it is a liberal arts college, SLU focuses less on job-specific skills and more on students' ability to reason through problems in creative ways. Writing and speaking effectively are skill sets highlighted by the unique First-Year Program, but these qualities are also built upon in some ways in all classes. The small class size forces students to actively know the material and contribute to discussions. Classes are designed to engage students in the material, and it's not a place for those who like to nap in class. The interactive approach, especially in the First-Year Program class, makes students work creatively to present and apply information. For many students, this is one of the best aspects of SLU.

Good place to stop if you have a pet with you. Our room was clean for the most part-just a couple of minor issues but nothing terrible.

D-backs, Dodgers to renew increasingly fiery rivalry
Tempers were at a high when the clubs met back in May and again in a meeting earlier this month. Now factor in both teams are fighting to stay in playoff contention with just a month left in the season, and this National League West rivalry becomes a pivotal showdown for each club.
As if that wasn't enough, the pitching matchup in Thursday's series opener pits Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw against D-backs ace Ian Kennedy in a rematch from that heated May 14 contest.
In that early-season tilt, Kennedy threw a pitch inside and then behind Kershaw in the third inning. Kershaw retaliated two innings later with a brushback pitch that just missed Kennedy. Each of those at-bats resulted in a walk.
"They both got walked," D-backs manager Kirk Gibson said at the time. "It was no big deal, no one got hit, two guys walked and the game went on."
After the game, the D-backs straight-faced the incident, saying they were simply pitching Kershaw inside because he was a good hitter. Kershaw enters the rematch with a career .148 batting average.
Regardless of how each team addressed the incident in May, the bad blood resurfaced at the start of August. Dodgers second baseman Jerry Hairston accused Paul Goldschmidt of a dirty play and called for the D-backs first baseman to be suspended for a late slide into second base.
Hairston wasn't seriously injured and no suspension was handed down, but the play certainly didn't help ease the tensions between the teams.
With neither club currently in line to make the postseason, however, the focus for each club this weekend will be on improving its playoff chances -- or in the D-backs' case, simply keeping them alive. Arizona arrives in Los Angeles in the midst of a free fall in the NL Wild Card standings after losing six straight games.
"It's frustrating," left-hander Wade Miley said of the recent skid. "We've just got to keep going, keep grinding and push through this thing."
D-backs: Kennedy scoffs at being shut down
Kennedy realizes he has fallen far short of expectations this season (11-11, 4.44 ERA), but he doesn't take kindly to the idea of not finishing out the season in his regular spot in the rotation.
Given Kennedy's workload in seasons past and the D-backs' suddenly slimming playoff chances, there has been speculation of shutting down Kennedy early and giving his starts to one of the organization's younger pitchers.
"Is that a joke?" Kennedy said when asked about the possibility. "If that was the case, I feel like there are a lot of guys that could just mail it in -- you know, just say, 'I don't have it this year, I'll see you guys next year.' That wouldn't work. Part of our job is we have to go out there even when we fail."
Kennedy pitched 222 innings last year on his way to finishing fourth in the NL Cy Young voting. This season, he's logged 162 1/3 innings, but his velocity has been down at times and he's struggled to put together a consistent run.
"Honestly, it's crazy and it's frustrating, but my arm feels really good," Kennedy said. "That's what drives me nuts. I feel really good and I'm not having success. It's just part of this game. It's a humbling game."
Dodgers: Kemp hopes to return Thursday
Slugger Matt Kemp said he hopes to return to the lineup Thursday, but manager Don Mattingly wasn't as optimistic.
Kemp sat out Wednesday's game after slamming face-first into the Coors Field wall on Tuesday night. He eventually left that contest two batters later, but CT scans and MRIs revealed only a bone bruise to his left knee, but no fractured jaw.
Without any serious injuries showing up in the test results, Mattingly said he plans to ultimately let Kemp determine when he'll be ready to return.
"He's got to be honest," Mattingly said. "It doesn't do us any good if he can't do anything."
Worth noting
Kershaw is 7-3 with a 2.41 ERA in 12 career starts against the D-backs. Current D-backs players are hitting a combined .150 (16-for-107) against the lefty with 32 strikeouts.
After losing the season series to the Dodgers five straight years from 2006-10, the D-backs have gone 18-12 against Los Angeles since the start of last season.

I'd never brazed before, or silver-soldered. I had to completely teach myself. Dave Yates was doing a demonstration on frame building. I stood and watched him do his thing and came straight up here and did my first lug joint and it worked perfectly.
My favourite thing is lugged bikes. I just love carving away at lugs and I think that's where the craftsmanship comes in. I just love playing around, carving stuff up and doing your own thing, creating your own style.
Individual touches are what sets a bike apart from everything else and that's really important to me. Something that the customer is going to be absolutely blown away by because it's theirs and no one else's.
The bike
We wanted a modern look but I really wanted a lugged bike with an oversized head tube so we could use some modern carbon forks. We've gone for internal cable routing and wrap-around seat stays so that we'd have clearance for mudguards. We used XCR stainless steel because for long Continental rides it's not quite as stiff as 953. It's going to be an all-terrain bike, it's going to get pretty dirtied up. We didn't want any corrosion.

BlueAnt Embrace headphones review: Excellent, natural sound
BlueAnt branches out from its Bluetooth wireless roots with a wired stereo "headset" it calls Embrace. The stylish over-ear headphones include an integrated mic and controls for iOS devices that allow you to make hands-free calls and play, pause, and track-forward audio selections. Although their $200 retail price tag sways toward the higher end of the consumer market, we recommend these over-ear headphones for their robust, well-defined sound and padded comfort.
As far as their design, the Embrace headphones seem to have drawn inspiration from Bowers and Wilkins' P5 headphones. They have rectangular earcups that are aptly padded … Read more

Last year's Benton Lady Panther softball team finished the season with a 30-3 showing overall, 14-0 in 6A South conference action and a state semifinal loss to Russellville. Heading into the offseason, Benton had one thing on its mind: winning a state title in 2013. The leader, and most outspoken Lady Panther pushing the campaign, was defensive standout and senior Drew Melton.
LITTLE ROCK - For a team that is built like a powerhouse and an offensive force to be reckoned with, the Harmony Grove Cardinals took a different approach to its game on Thursday night. Playing in the quarterfinals of the 5-3A district tournament in Little Rock, the Cardinals took Head Coach Dexter Hendrix's game plan and executed it flawlessly, beating Fountain Lake 33-27 to advance to the semis today against Episcopal.
FORT SMITH – After both the Benton boys and girls bowling teams finished second to Cabot in the 7A/6A Central conference tournament, Benton went to Bowling World in Fort Smith for the 7A/6A State Tournament on Monday. The Panther girls took third place and the boys fourth, while Cabot boys and girls took first in state as well. Bentonville came in second for the girls, and Fayetteville and Mountain Home were the teams before the Benton boys.
BAUXITE – Lady Miners head coach Joshua Harrison and his Bauxite Miners are no strangers to the Nashville Scrappers, playing each other nine times in the last three years, including a narrow 35-34 win at Nashville in January. Wednesday's 7-4A district matchup proved to be just as entertaining as the Miners escaped with a 61-57 win over Nashville, clinching a spot in the regional tournament. "I know the type of team Nashville is," Harrison said. "They fell from fourth to sixth [in conference] but they're a team full of athletes."
BRYANT- The Bryant Hornets used a late fourth-quarter run in a 52-35 victory over the Texarkana Razorbacks on Tuesday night. The Bryant Hornets improve to 17-9 (6-6) on the year. The Hornets have won 6 of their past 8 games after starting the 7A/6A South 0-4. "We hit a few shots early," Bryant coach Mike Abrahamson said. "We made some plays."
The Benton Panthers cruised to their third 7A/6A South conference championship in six years on Tuesday night at Benton Arena with a 66-42 rout of the Lake Hamilton Wolves. It was Benton's 14th consecutive win as the Panthers have been cruising all season long sporting a 23-2 overall record and 12-0 in the South. "It's a special night," Benton Coach Chris Nail said. "They're winners. That's just how they are. They win. The thing about this group is nobody ever cares about stats. It's just a special group."
BENTON – Despite a less-than-stellar performance, the Benton Panthers came away with a 50-44 victory over the Sheridan Yellowjackets in 7A/6A South conference play on Tuesday night in Benton Arena. It was the Panthers' 12th consecutive victory and Benton is ranked seventh in the state in the Hog Country Top 10 poll. "I did not think we played well at all tonight," Benton Coach Chris Nail said. "We had dead legs all night. We didn't have our usual motion. Sheridan played good. You can't say it was all us, but I didn't think we played well.
GLEN ROSE - When the month of February rolls around, there is just one thing on the mind of high school basketball teams; postseason play. For the Harmony Grove Cardinals, the 5-3A 2012-13 district tournament looms in the near future. On Tuesday, the Cardinals traveled just up the street to Glen Rose for an intense rivalry-renewing game with the Beavers. After busting a four-game skid with a win over eStem on Friday, Harmony Grove added a second straight win Tuesday, defeating Glen Rose handily, 75-55.
BRYANT – Sophomore K.J. Hill poured in 20 points, Greyson Giles added 10, but their efforts fell short as the Bryant Hornets fell to the visiting Little Rock Fair War Eagles 56-48 on Tuesday night. Despite outscoring Fair 38-35 in the second half, Bryant Head Coach Mike Abrahamson said his team wasn't ready from the opening tip. "We didn't want this one for some reason," Abrahamson said. "We weren't ready to play."
BAUXITE – Sophomore Ben Madison scored 16 points, senior Tyler Hill added 12 points, and the Bauxite Miners won its third consecutive conference game with a 46-37 victory over the visiting Ashdown Panthers. In the first half, both teams came out and struggled to put the ball through the basket. After the first quarter of play, Bauxite (12-5, 6-1 conference) led Ashdown 8-7. Three-pointers by Madison and junior Hunter Holder were the only field goals in the quarter for the Miners, leaving Head Coach Mark Smith frustrated with his team's offensive efficiency.

Crystal, who plays a veterinarian's "pet" on the NBC show Animal Practice, is a capuchin monkey who has been exploited in a number of commercials, TV shows, and movies. But what do you think she would rather be doing than performing silly tricks in front of a camera?
1. Snoozing
2. Shakin' her tail feathers
4. Getting a piggyback ride
6. Noshing on fruit
7. Exploring her inner yogi
8. Climbing on trees
9. Training for the Capuch-a-lympics
10. Having a BFF she can relate to—not a Hollywood producer or trainer but another monkey she can hang out with and spend time playing, climbing, and foraging with.
Tell NBC executives that you disapprove of the use of wild animals such as Crystal in entertainment, and urge NBC to cancel Animal Practice!
