Glen Ellyn officials: 'no plans' to relocate residents within proposed TIF district
GLEN ELLYN – The village of Glen Ellyn is looking to create a new TIF district along Roosevelt Road, causing alarm among residents of an apartment complex who received notice they could potentially be displaced if new development were to come to the area.
The proposed TIF district would include the north side of Roosevelt Road from Main Street to Park Boulevard and the area bordered by Park Boulevard, Route 53, Roosevelt Road and Taft Avenue.
Parkside Apartments, located at 16 N. Parkside Ave., would be within the proposed TIF district. Many of the 120-unit complex's residents are immigrants and refugees.

I mentioned in my last post that I had two children. They're both two, and my husband and I are raising them vegetarian. Both of my children have completely different eating habits.
Our daughter, B, is a very picky eater. She loves peanut butter, tomato sauce & nutritional yeast, caramel rice cakes, and popscicles. She does not like to try new foods and really, sometimes acts like she doesn't like a lot of foods she'd had before – when in the past it was something she'd gobble up.
Our son, L, is the complete opposite. He will eat anything and everything. I've often said that if he doesn't like something we give it, there's something wrong with it. He loves his veggies, peanut butter, and well, everything. He is really good about trying new foods.
Anyway, I'm always trying to figure out new ways to sneak them more veggies. A good way, I've found is via a smoothie – even B can't argue with a sweet smoothie.
Tonight we made one with a papaya, two oranges, a handful of spinach, and a tiny bit of soy milk. Let me just say that when B tasted it, her eyes lit up and she put her glass down and literally danced around the kitchen. I'm guessing this means there are more smoothies in her and L's futures.

The quest to turn the motion of the world's waterways into a significant source of energy may still be in its nascent stage, but several tidal power projects are making headway. Whether they operate in lakes, rivers or the oceans, projects attempting to harness the tides share the same mission: to improve the technology and offer an economical alternative to fossil fuels.
Renewable hydrokinetic power comes from a number of different sources, including the up-and-down motion of waves and the smooth flow of the tides caused by the sun and moon's gravitational forces on Earth's bodies of water. Tidal power is seen as a promising source of energy because of its predictability and from the potential to draw it from ocean currents and estuary channels that connect rivers with the sea.
There are only a handful of tidal energy projects in place around the world, and none is producing commercially available electricity at this time. Most of these projects use some sort of turbine to capture the tide's kinetic motion. In general, as the turbines slowly spin, they turn the gears in an attached gearbox to create electricity. Cables connected to those gearboxes carry that electricity ashore.
Although it is unclear just how much electrical energy that the tides have the potential to generate, the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) has studied several tidal power project sites. In 2008 EPRI estimated those sites together have the potential for generating as much as 115 terawatt-hours of electricity annually, although the practical potential for energy generation from those sites is about 14 terawatt-hours per year. (Total electricity consumption in the U.S. is about 4,000 terawatt-hours per annum, according to EPRI.) Much of that energy would come from Alaska, thanks to high power density and large-size sites in southeast Alaska, Cook Inlet and the Aleutian Islands. Other locations studied were in Maine, San Francisco and Washington State's Puget Sound. Although New York City and the Chesapeake Bay were not studied for the 2008 report, EPRI concluded these sites could also make use of tidal hydrokinetic energy resources.
RITE stuff
One of the more advanced tidal power operations in the U.S. is taking place in New York City's East River, where the Roosevelt Island Tidal Energy (RITE) project has been testing windmill-like turbines since 2006. Led by Verdant Power, the project installed six windmill-like turbines—each five meters in diameter and anchored to the bottom of the East River, about nine meters in depth—in the water next to Roosevelt Island, a sliver of land 3.2 kilometers long by 240 meters wide in the river between the boroughs of Manhattan and Queens.
"Verdant went with a design that looks like a conventional wind machine—an open rotor with three blades," says Roger Bedard, an EPRI researcher who has studied water current–based energy generation. This was a calculated move, given that wind is very commercially mature in terms of renewable energy sources, he adds.
After logging about 9,000 operational hours since being installed, all six original turbines were removed earlier this year and are being disassembled so Verdant can study their seals, bearings and other components for signs of wear. In the meantime, Verdant is developing its next-generation turbines that will be very different from their predecessors.
Whereas Verdant's original tidal turbines sat anchored individually to the riverbed, looking something like a field of underwater windmills, the new design will have three turbines operating on a triangular frame positioned on (not anchored to) the bottom of the river. The company plans to place 10 triangular frames—a total of 30 turbines—on the river bottom. Each of the new turbines will produce 35 kilowatts of power at the rated water speed, meaning that the 10-frame installation should produce up to about one megawatt of power (enough to provide electricity to roughly 800 homes).
This is, of course, if the company can get permission from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Verdant has been operating with a preliminary FERC license and by August plans to apply for its full license, which the company needs in order to produce, deliver and sell one megawatt of commercial power.

David Cameron plans to end housing benefit for claimants aged 16-24. The proposal forms part of wider recommendations to begin being implemented next year as part of the new Welfare Act. Further plans being rolled out including linking regional play with regional benefits, breaking the link between benefits and inflation, and considering linking benefits to average earnings and cost of living amounting to a further attack on workers rights and conditions.

text: My 2005 Focus has reached 75K miles... I recently took it in for your standard oil change and the mechanic said that my air filter probably needed to be changed. Well, 3 hours later the mechanic came to me with a puzzled look. It seems that the Focus has a lifetime air filter and they didn't realize it. Guess I don't need a new air filter?! Since then, I've noticed a distinct rattling noise coming from the engine whenever I turn on the A/C. I took it back to the mechanic and explained that the noise wasn't there before they decided to hunt for the air filter. Well, to make a long story short, they had the car for almost the entire day, but can't find the source. The service manager states that it's the "lifters" on my engine making that noise. How can that be when it didn't make the noise before? The rattling is really starting to annoy me. Any suggestions?

"The second half just did not go the way obviously we wanted (it) to," Haven coach Mike Self said. "We come out making some adjustments in the first offensive series and it was working. I'm not trying to make excuses, but we're playing on such a shoestring depth chart at this point. We're getting tired, we're getting outworked. We did things in the second half that deserved to be taken advantage of by them." Nickerson obliged - and did more than enough to earn pay back for last year's 21-20 loss to Haven on their own home turf. The Panthers literally handed it off to their rushing attack to take them to paydirt as they ran the ball on 34 of 38 plays after halftime for 198 yards on the ground. With see-saw scoring, this win came down to Nickerson's defense getting stops when it needed and handing it over to the three-headed running attack of fullback Isaac Warman and running backs Sean Rodriguez and Tyler Owen, who divvied up the damage. "The Haven kids fought hard and I was just proud every time Haven seemed to have an answer, we answered right back," Nickerson coach Max Heinlein said. "I thought our kids persevered. When the momentum shifted, they stepped right back up and played hard all night." Nickerson took a 26-15 advantage into the fourth quarter, only to see it trimmed to 26-21 less than two minutes later. Cashing in on one of just two three-and-outs they forced on the Panthers, Haven used a 26-yard run by Austin Fritzemeier and a 25-yard run by Zach Hendrixson for a quick-strike two-play drive to keep it a one-score game. The Wildcats failed on their own two-point conversion and that was when the wheels started to come off. Nickerson scored on two of its last three possessions while Haven was forced to punt on its final two drives. Warman and Rodriguez, who combined for 223 yards on the ground, each scored their third touchdown of the game in the fourth quarter. Warman's made it a 32-21 game and - after Haven spoiled good field position with a fumble and false start penalty on its next drive - Rodriguez found the end zone to put the game away. His 5-yard score came on the heels of a 66-yard catch-and-run by Jalen Karber, and when he hit the end zone with 4:07 to go, Nickerson was up by its final 38-21 margin. Haven followed with a three-and-out and the game was all but over, save for the Panthers adding a few more runs to drain the clock. "When it all came down to it, our hearts were just much better in that fourth quarter than it had been in the first three quarters," Heinlein said. "The determination to make a stop is amazing." Warman finished as the game's leading rusher with 127 yards on 25 carries while Rodriguez had 11 totes for 96 and Owen six for 62. After being the feature back last year, Warman said the variety of weapons in the backfield has made their offense more unpredictable. "We split it up and no one knows who's getting the ball," Warman said. "It's so even between the three of us, it's crazy." Haven had flashes of brilliance on offense, but none when it came to crunch time. The Wildcats had more penalties (four) than first downs (three) in the second half. Even with Fritzemeier and Hendrixson's big runs, Haven mustered just 45 yards of offense in the fourth quarter. Finding fixes for their second half issues left Self puzzled. "Little things like that, putting a drive together...it's just that little monkey on your back. It creeps back and it's hard to knock it off," said Self, whose team fell to 3-3. Nickerson found its defense in the fourth quarter, but had its offense for all four. Building on their 12-7 halftime advantage, the Nickerson offense spread carries between its backfield trio on a methodical nine-play, 72-yard drive to start the second half and it was capped by a 5-yard scoring Rodriguez. And Rodriguez, who ran for 68 of his 96 yards and scored all three of his touchdowns after intermission, added another score less than five minutes later. Given the decisive win over their rivals, Heinlein said he's confident about where his team is headed, standing at 5-1 before district play. "We wanted to finish off before we headed into districts with a win," Heinlein said. "Haven's so much improved from where they've been in the past. You've got to give credit to coach Self and the things that he's done. " Nickerson took its first drive of the game 61 yards for the game's opening score, putting six points on the board when Warman scored on a 6-yard plunge. Haven answered immediately with a methodical 13-play, 70-yard drive. Sophomore quarterback Tim Hendrixson keyed the drive for the Wildcats by completing both of his passes for 30 yards while adding five carries for 19, the last being a 3-yard touchdown. On its next possession, the Wildcats drove into Nickerson territory only to cough up the ball when wide receiver Cody Crabtree fumbled after a 7-yard catch. The Panthers capitalized on the takeaway, scoring six plays later. Sean Rodriguez sparked the possession with an 18-yard run while Tyler Owen added a 15-yard scamper and Warman carried three times for 19 yards and capped the drive with his 1-yard plunge. Nickerson, without a reliable kicker, went for two on both of its first-half scores and failed both times. It left the Panthers with a 12-7 halftime lead. Trae' Regier, Haven's feature runner, was bottled up for much of the game but broke a couple of long-gainers to finish with 13 carries for 54 yards. Fritzemeier led the team in rushing (six carries, 98 yards) and receiving (three catches 35 yards). After playing a solid first half, Haven starting quarterback Hendrixson exited the game with a head injury in the second half. His injury status is still undetermined.
Karber was the game's leading receiver with four catches for 120 yards.

This documentary film is our long, funny love song to a progressive nation - the perfect gift for the politically engaged people in your life. Order now, and we'll ship it in time for the Holidays.
My wife and co-conspirator Melanie Harby and I wrote a song called "Vote Republican" and I sang it all over America during the election year of 2012. In every state we visited, we wrote a new verse - a new satirical reason to "Vote Republican."
Here are all fifty-one verses, woven together with new music, composed especially for the film and footage of everything from the redwood forests to the gulf stream waters. It's a labor of love for a progressive nation, a grand filmic paean to America the Beautiful and Republicans the Absurd. And it's made in America by small business owners! Don't shot at Walmart. Shop at Metaphor Records.
It's yours for $25 - that's just 50 cents per state. We're also happy to offer a Gift Pack: 5 DVDs for the price of 4. (And for our Kickstarter backers, we're offering an Angel Pack: 6 DVDs for the price of 4.) We'll have the DVD in hand and ready to ship to you by mid-December. Order now!

Hosted by Guad Venegas, WORLD PARTY! gives viewers an inside guide to some of the world's biggest festivals, parties, and events. Each episode features Guad enjoying the local sights and sounds of these festivals and letting loose just like anyone else would! From piloting a hot air balloon over the Rio Grande to lobbing overripe tomatoes at unsuspecting revelers, WORLD PARTY! introduces viewers to offbeat activities that may seem inaccessible to the average traveler — and shows them just how possible they are.
Won a Telly for Best Travel/Tourism Program.
Produced by Space Age Television (2010-2013)
Midsummer is a holiday that dates back centuries to Pagan times. Today, though, it is a holiday in Scandinavia and Eastern Europe, which is second only to Christmas in importance. Guad Venegas travels to Latvia and Estonia to try and partake in Midsummer traditions such as trying to find love and creating giant bonfires.
The ski resort town of Voss, Norway comes alive in late June as over 35,000 spectators and competitors take part in this week-long extreme sports festival. Since the Veko is held in Norway, nearby glaciers are utilized, enabling both summer and winter sports events in the same week. Guad takes advantage of the festival's innovative "try-it" pass, where anyone can show up and get crash courses in nearly every sport at the festival. With sports during the day and parties all night, what's not to like?
World Wife-Carrying Festival
The town of Sonkajarvi, Finland may be just a speck on the map; but for one day in early July it becomes the epicenter of bizarre sport competitions. For nearly twenty years, this small town has, with a firm tongue-in-cheek, celebrated the time honored tradition of bandits running into a town, clubbing a woman and running off with her. Nowadays though, the competition is a weekend long festival where teams of one man and one woman run against one another on an obstacle course that is both for fun-seekers and the serious competitors. Guad competes for the wife-carrying grand prize: the woman's weight in beer.
Every August, Collingwood, Ontario, Canada is descended up on by tens of thousands of music and wakeboard fans. Wakestock is a combination music festival and international tour stop for wakeboarding and wakeskating professionals. Guad gets a crash course from four-time World Champion Shaun Murray in wakeboarding, then tries his hand at wakeskating to find out which discipline suits him better to enter the amateur competition at Wakestock.
In the dead of winter, most folks bundle up and stay inside. But that's not the attitude for everyone in Chicago. It may be cold out, but here, they embrace it and don't let it prevent them from having a great time. Every winter/spring, thousands of people form five person teams and grab a shopping cart, that is styled out, in order to run the Chiditarod. The race is run throughout the west side of Chicago and is billed as the world's largest mobile food drive and pub crawl, as teams need to bring fifty pounds of food and stop at five checkpoints - which are local bars. Guad, captains a shopping cart-turned shrimp boat to see if he can sail to victory.
The last weekend of the ski season has historically been a dead weekend. But, Copper Mountain has come up with the remedy for that; a weekend filled with crazy competitions for one last blast of the ski season. Guad participates in the Copperman race, an obstacle course up and down the ski slope and the Slope Soakers Rail jam. But, Slope soakers is not like any other rail jam. This contest features a rail floating on inner tubes over icy water. Can Guad clear the rail, or will he crash and freeze?
Warrior Dash
Extreme obstacle courses gained popularity in recent years, but only the Warrior Dash can claim to be the first and the biggest. Established outside Chicago, the Warrior Dash sees up to twenty thousand people per event stop, competing in an all out obstacle course that includes jumping over fire and swimming through mud under barbed wire. Guad gets to meet the brains behind this race, and also trains to become a 'gentleman warrior' by learning a lost martial art called bartitsu, all to focus himself on achieving Warrior Dash glory.
Art Basel
Although Art Basel at its core is an art fair, the event has grown so large in recent years that it has become Miami's largest party and biggest weekend of the year. Hundreds of locations across the city throw some sort of event or party. Others transform into a gallery for the first week of December. Guad checks out the main art fair, where half a billion dollars of art exchanges hands, and the hip Wynwood district that is known as a street art mecca. The excitement of the atmosphere compels Guad to develop his own street artist persona and hit the streets of South Beach to try and create his own masterpiece.

NEWARK, Del. -- Thaddeus Young had 20 points and five rebounds to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to a 97-85 preseason victory over the Boston Celtics on Friday night.
Spencer Hawes had 17 points and seven rebounds and Evan Turner added 12 points and eight rebounds for the Sixers, who won their first preseason game on this side of the Atlantic Ocean after playing two earlier this week in Europe.
Jared Sullinger had 19 points and nine rebounds for the Celtics, who dropped to 0-3 in the first preseason of coach Brad Stevens.
The Sixers opened an 18-point halftime lead as first-year coach Brett Brown's starters were 21 of 30 from the field (70 per cent) and accounted for 46 of the team's 54 points.
The Celtics got within 84-79 on a 3-pointer by Gerald Wallace with 5:30 to play but never got any closer in the game played at the University of Delaware.

Back by popular demand, Grease premiered at the Edinburgh Playhouse on 6 May 2011 and has since played venues throughout the UK and Ireland. Grease will continue to rock 'n' roll around the UK from 3 July and is currently booking until 29 December 2012.
Danny Bayne (winner of ITV's Grease is the Word, Hairspray )stars as 'Danny' with Carina Gillespie (Grease in the West End, Buddy) as his sweetheart 'Sandy', as the couple follow in the footsteps of John Travolta and Olivia Newton John who famously played the roles in the hit 1978 movie. The cast also includes: Kate Somerset How ('Rizzo'), David O'Reilly ('Roger'), Laura Wilson ('Jan'), Richard Vincent ('Doody'), Josh Dever ('Sonny'), Darren John ('Eugene'), Stuart Reid ('Vince Fontaine') and joining the show from 3 July, Ross William Wild ('Kenickie'), Lauren Hood ('Frenchy'), Scarlett Davies ('Marty'), Charlotte Gooch ('Patty'), Emma Kingston '(Miss Lynch') and Emily Hawgood ('Cha Cha') with other parts played by the ensemble.
Russell Grant found international fame through becoming the Astrologer Royal but before this he had a successful acting career in theatre, television and film (TV's On the Buses, Please Sir! and The Fenn Street Gang, Rodger and Hammerstein's The King and I on tour, Tom Brown's Schooldays in the West End, Hans Anderson at the London Palladium, Pantomimes in Cardiff, Guildford and Blackpool as the 'Dame', Paul Doust's Probably Wanstead at the Brighton Festival, The Rocky Horror Show national tour and Under Milk Wood- for which he won critical acclaim as Director and 'Narrator'). He recently captured the attention of the nation- as an unlikely contender- and fulfilled his professional dream of learning how to dance on BBC's hit series Strictly Come Dancing (Autumn 2011). Returning to his theatrical roots, Russell has just completed a successful season as 'The Wizard' in Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Wizard of Oz at the London Palladium.
Mary Byrne shot to fame in 2010 after becoming a finalist on the seventh series of hit TV talent show The X Factor, where she won the hearts of millions with her big, warm personality and powerhouse voice. Following her elimination in the live semi-final, Mary signed a record deal with Sony Records and has since become one of Britain and Ireland's best-loved entertainers. Her debut album 'Mine & Yours', released in March 2011, spent two weeks at the number one spot plus a further eight weeks in the top five of the Irish music charts. The album was produced by hit-maker Nigel Wright (Madonna, Barbra Streisand and Shirley Bassey). Her second album '...with Love', produced by legendary Irish singer, songwriter, musician and producer Phil Coulter, was released earlier this year and was also a top 10 hit in the music charts. Mary was honoured to perform for The Queen at a special show, celebrating Her Majesty's first state visit to Ireland and appeared as a special guest for one of her own idols, American singing legend Neil Diamond, in concert at his Aviva Stadium concert in Dublin (2011). She has also just completed a six night residency at Dublin's Olympia Theatre. Mary made her stage debut as 'Teen Angel' in Grease at Dublin's Grand Canal Theatre in August 2011 and reprised the role for several dates of the show's tour earlier this year.
Classically trained Welsh singer Rhydian Roberts is best-known as a finalist on The X Factor (2007), where he captivated audiences with his powerful voice and passionate performances. Rhydian went on to sign a record deal with Sony BMG and whilst with the label, focused on classical crossover material. His debut album 'Rhydian', released in 2008, went double platinum and the following year he completed a 27 date sell-out solo tour of the UK. His second album 'O Fortuna', released in 2009, went Gold and was nominated at the Classical Brit Awards for Best Album of the year 2010. Rhydian has performed at arenas and concert venues around the country with some of the world's biggest artists including The Stereophonics, Celine Dion, Michael Bublé, Bryn Terfel and Dame Kiri Te Kanawa and at major events including Andrew Lloyd Webber's 60th Birthday Party in Hyde Park (2008) and the opening ceremony for the Ryder Cup (2010). He appeared in The War of the Worlds (European tour 2010) and has also starred as 'Khashoggi' in the musical We Will Rock You (UK tour). Rhydian's third album 'Waves' and an album of Welsh classics were released last year and his own TV series was broadcast at the end of 2011. Rhydian made his debut in Grease last year and reprised the role for a limited 3 week season this spring.
Since breaking out on Broadway in 1972, Grease's place has been firmly established in the cultural Hall of Fame, having seduced the hearts of millions with its back-to-back sizzling tunes. It's the original high-school musical featuring everyone's favourite characters - 'Sandy', 'Danny', the groovy 'T Birds', the sassy 'Pink Ladies' and the whole gang at Rydell High - with all the unforgettable songs from the hit movie including 'You're The One That I Want', 'Grease Is The Word', 'Summer Nights', 'Hopelessly Devoted to You', 'Sandy', 'Greased Lightnin'' and many more.
Voted the "No 1 Greatest Musical"* Grease has proved that a musical love story, bursting with denim, cheerleaders, slick hairstyles, rock 'n 'roll, 1950's pop culture and an irresistible mix of teenage angst and young romance is timeless and universal. Grease is the ultimate feel-good, pick-me up musical - an electrifyin' extravaganza, packed with fun, energy and vibrant physicality. The show is guaranteed to thrill audiences and leave everyone hand-jiving the night away with "a-wop-bop-a-loo-bop, a wop-bam-boom!"
Grease returned to the West End in July 2007 and during its triumphant run, the audience favourite played over 1,500 performances and was seen by over 1½ million theatregoers at the Piccadilly Theatre where it became the longest running show in the venue's history- closing on 30 April 2011 after a hugely successful 4 years.
This production originally opened in the West End in 1993 (co-produced with Robert Stigwood) where it enjoyed a fantastic run of 6 years. The last international tour of Grease was a phenomenal success, playing to sell-out audiences and smashing records at many venues. Since 1993 the show has been seen by audiences totalling over 12 million people in the UK alone. In 2010, a second production played internationally in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Auckland and Hong Kong.
Written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey, directed by David Gilmore (Daisy Pulls It Off, Happy Days, Song & Dance, Footloose) and choreographed by Arlene Phillips (Starlight Express, Saturday Night Fever, Flashdance The Musical & BBC's Strictly Come Dancing), Grease is produced in the West End and on tour by Paul Nicholas and David Ian and is presented by arrangement with Robert Stigwood.

One clutch that has caught my eye this season is the Lauren Merkin Snakeskin embossed Louise Clutch. From Shopbop.com:
How gorgeous is this? It's not real python (I can't even imagine how difficult it would be to care for if it was!), but this classic "print" is just perfect and goes with everything. Retails for $200. I've always had an attraction to Lauren Merkin's Louise and Eve clutches (the Eve being smaller in size). Such a classic shape and she makes them in dozens of different textures and colors each season making it too easy to want to collect them like an old coin collection.
I have also been obsessed with the Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Clutch for years now. Although I would be perfectly happy with black, flat iron grey, or wine, this one in Sea Green eludes me:
Kind of plain, you say? I thought so too, at first. Until I realized that the detachable chain can be worn in several different ways. Then I was sold! RM handbags have actually gone down in price this season (unlike Chanel, which has gone up 25%), making this just a little more within my reach. The perfect day-to-night clutch.

Star Wars: Rajnikanth vs. Kamal Haasan
Rajnikanth vs. Kamal Haasan
Director Shankar had, reportedly, planned the super-hit 'Endhiran' with Kamal Haasan. He even had a few mock shots, it seems, until destiny interfered, and eventually landed the role in Rajnikanth's lap.
The rest is history; Tamil Nadu's super-mega-duper star became India's superstar, and Bollywood still hasn't figured out how this man, who they once considered as at best whimsical, at worst a laughable supporting actor, shook them all up with what can be best described as 'mindlessly flawless entertainment'.

Ichiban Japanese Steak House and Sushi Bar – Minneapolis
Online Reservations
The food and the chef were outstanding. Our waitress was not so good. We had a group of six, so the gratuity was added in the bill automatically. I only hope the chef received the entire tip and not our waitress. I asked multiple times for a fork and did not get one until the chef found a different server to get us some. Our chef also continued to fill our water. Our waitress brought our salads and then disappeared until she brought dessert and of course the bill. If we would have been drinking, we never would have had the opportunity to have one.
The teppanyaki chef was quick and efficient in preparing our food. Very good presentation and fun to watch. Good food - quality meats and seafood, and everything was delicious!
We had teppanyaki dinner, and the salmon was wonderful. My Wife had steak, and she really enjoyed it. I also othought the chicken liver was exceptional. This is also a wonderful place to take children as the chef does a great job of entertaining the visitors.
I'd say you pay for experience, not quality of food. Great for a special occasion, but not for the avid foodie
this is a great place to celebrate an special occasion and the food is great the service is great. It is worth the price that you pay.
We brought our family visitors from Thailand and they loved it! They appreciated the vegetarian offering and the sushi. Of course the kids thought the show was wonderful. We love going to Ichiban with large groups and going to meet other people. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
There is really very little Japanese in the style of the restaurant or food- but cook's show is great on its own. Recommended for large groups (up to 8-10 people) but definitely not for romantic couples or gourmets of Japanese food.
We have been here a few times, and have been impressed every time! Amazing food and good service! The silver medallion steak is to die for. I have a 5 year old and a 3 month old, and they are very good with children there.
We went to celebrate a birthday. Our waitress was great. Her timing was impeccable on when to bring out items and to refill drinks. Our hibachi chef was not as talkative as others I noticed in the restaurant, but his cooking style was spot on and the food was prepared correctly. The down side to this was the dress code that the restaurant allows. For the prices one pays for such a dining experience, one would expect the dress code to reflect the experience. Guests were coming to dine wearing t-shirts, shorts and flip-flops. Save that for fast food restaurants. If you can afford to eat at Ichiban, show some class and dress more appropriately.
Ichiban I have loved you forever. You never let me down or break my heart. Thank you so very much for all the wonderful eats over the years. I highly recommend dining here.
We had Alex who was our chef for our meal and I can't say enough good things about Alex. It was my fiance's birthday and He was hilarious, great chef and was worth every penny we spent. The food was magnificent and loved the scenery in the restaurant and finally drinks were great. A little pricey but the saying goes, you get what you pay for and again its worth every penny. Thank you so much Alex and Ichiban for a great experience, we absolutely will be back and we will be requesting Alex aka White Rice!!
My daughter requested this restaurant to celebrate her 18th Birthday. The food was good and service great. Te other people seated with us were quite entertaining.
Our chef Nick was very good. There were other chefs that didn't look very comfortable doing their job. Food was ok- but for the $ the filet was tough (we had 4 combination plates with the filet) and not very tasty.
This was our first time visiting Ichibans. We went for our anniversary, and had our 6 year old son with us. We chose this restaurant for the entertainment value, as our son does not usually enjoy eating out (unless it's McDonalds!) and we wanted him to have fun too! Our experience did not disappoint! The waitress and chef were both very good about including a little one in the entertainment, and the flipping knives and bursts of fire kept us all entertained. Not to mention that the food was very good! There are not many options for kids, but our picky eater actually liked most of what was served. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for any occasion...even ones that include kiddos! Enjoy!
Great chefs that are always entertaining and good food.
This was our second visit to Ichibans. The service was excellent, very attentive, quick to refill water and clear dishes. Our chef this time was Alex. He was great and very entertaining. We had the supreme dinner which was cooked just right, very good and filling. Highly recommend. I've seen some reviews where there were negative comments about the chef not being Asian. Who cares as long as the chef is good at what they do. The only thing on the negative side was the included appetizer, chicken liver. Gave it a try, but next time I would pay extra for something else. One drink and the full meal average was about $50 per person. Full meal includes appetizer, soup, salad, entree, fried rice, vegetables, small ice cream treat.
Hadn't been there for a long time and was very pleased. Won't wait so long next time.
We brought our two adult kids here for my daughters birthday. I spent my own 23rd birthday at Ichiban and rembered it as a wonderful evening. This proved no different all of these years later. Perfect for a special occasion, a romantic night out or even to break the ice comfortably with visiting business associates. Thank you for a wonderful evening on again!
This place is always a great time for our family. The kids love, my wife and I love it. Hard to beat this place as the chefs are fun and the service is great.
Ichiban's is always a good time. The cooking show is entertaining, food is good, and sake goes down smooth.
My boyfriend and I come to Ichiban once a month. Our most recent visit was probably the best experience we've ever had there. The chef was awesome and personable, yet very professional. He made our night very memorable.
The food is really tasty, and the atmosphere is lively. However, I feel like your experience for hibachi really depends on the chef you get. The last chef I had didn't talk much or engage with us as much. It can also get rather pricey with all the add ons, such as the extra you pay for fried rice instead of plain steamed rice. Overall I would recommend it for a fun and different experience.
The show was great, the food was ok. The chef was talented at juggling the knives,etc until something flew out of his hands and hit me in the chest. For a moment, I wasn't sure what hit me but was glad that it turned out to be the peppermill rather than a knife.
We enjoyed ourselves great food and a good table show.
We had a very talented chef, he was not Asian like we expected but he had great showmanship and humor. There was a lot of food acrobatics going on besides things getting chopped up. We really enjoyed our time and all five of us had the Superior dinner. The lobster was buttery and hot, probably the most delicious of the entrees with a close second of the scallops. However, all of it was very good. Parking was somewhat difficult so we parked at the Nicollet ramp across the street for $12. Recommend you plan to be there for about an hour and a half to two hours as the whole experience is well worth it but you need to be careful with planning if you intend to go somewhere else later, like the theatre.
Great place to eat. Food is awesome and you get to see it cooked in front of you.
Ichiban is such a unique place! Each time I've been there we've sat around a grill and watched in aw as the grill masters cooked our food. They are so talented! And funny! It's a mini comedy show and dinner all in one! I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone!! And I WILL be returning! :)
There is nothing better than a great steak as most would agree. The Ichiban Japanese Steak House has a great steak that is so worth the extra money you pay for it. They cook the steak to order and it melts in your mouth. And our chef Alex is a must see! He was very entertaining and wonderful at getting the whole table into the act with fun.
We had a named cook Sean...had him last time we were there too-about a month ago! Great guy, great cook, great sense of humor, great fun! Hope we get him as a cook EVERYTIME we go there!
Each time we eat there we have a fun time with great service. Always entertaining.
Good food and very entertaining. Other than the chef depositing my shrimp on the plate of the diner next to me and then asking if I was OK with his just transferring it, it was very enjoyable. Even that was OK since I knew the gentleman next to me, but it gave me pause. The waitress kept forgetting my husband because he was at the end of the table so when everyone else got the soup, he had to wait as he did with his wine. Clearing up a few of these inconsistencies could move this up to 5 star.
we enjoyed our visit to ichban. the chef was very good & entertaining. the food was very tasty & servings were large. the ambience was good also
I've been to Ichiban four times, and I'm never disappointed. The food is incomparable to anything else, the staff is always flawless in their treatment, the decor is awesome, and the atmosphere is so fun. I've been there in a group of 13, a group of 7, a group of 4, and on a date of just 2 - it's always a blast, and the guest(s) of honor celebrating something special are treated like VIP during dinner and dessert. Do yourself a favor and go!
This was our second visit to Ichiban. Food is always excellent and the chef was entertaining. This time we brought the kids and they had a great time as well. They can be picky eaters and they cleaned their plates! Enough said.
It was all around a fantastic evening. Best food ive had in a long time and the chefs performance was amazing
We go to celebrate birthdays every year. Food is good,but this time the chief didn't season enough so we were a little disappointed. Chief put on a great show..probably one of the best we've seen. Even though we have 2 or 3 similar restaurants in our area,we will continue to co.e here because it's the best.
We went with a group of friends for my wife's birthday dinner and we loved every second of the experience! Amazing food and our chef was hilarious. It was one of the best hibachi restaurants I've ever been to!
Had a wonderful time. Great job on holding true to our reservation time. Amazing chef. Very fun.
Always a fun place to go and celebrate a birthday or anniversary. We like the food a lot.
The staff took extra time and care to ensure our 10 year old that the dining experience was out of this world. The chef told her that he was told by his mother never to play with knives, fire or his food. Wow, for a older child, who does not want to be bored in a restaurant, this is a great place. My steak, was beyond perfect.
I had planned a dinner to include my two "hard to please" teenage boys. The resturant experience met my expectation; a visual dining experience and good food, which left my kids enjoying the night. The service was very good, however just a couple points I should make. First, you are seated in groups of 12 that will include other parties. The Food; the average adult plate is ~ $40 plus Rice-$4.00 + Appetizer (if you decide not to choose the mushroom/chicken liver combo), + drinks. Expect to spend ~ $50-$60 per person. I gave the Food a ranking of 7-8 on a 10 scale, because its prepared and grilled the same way for all 12 guest; well-done and somewhat dry (not moist). You're mainly paying for the "show".
food and atmosphere were good service was great I would recommend this restaurant.
The food was great! I have been to the sushi buffet and teppanyaki, and loved both. The chef we had for teppanyaki appeared obviously new, but was very nice and had an easy attitude. I also love how warm and attentive the waitresses/hosts are!
My 14 year old son had heard about Ichiban from a friend. We had a wonderful time at the sushi bar-the little boats always kept loaded with choices made for a fun dining experience. We plan to dine again at Ichiban-next time to experience siting in the main dining room for the cooking show and dinner they offer.
Ichiban has always been a favorite special occasion place.
Dined 11/29/2013 with my partner. We were joined at the table by another older couple with their adult daughter and a younger couple from out of town with their 2 young daughters. Everyone was made to feel very welcome by our server and our chef, Nick, who was a master of technique and humorous patter, making the evening loads of fun. Had the Empress meal (lobster, shrimp and scallops), and it was sensational. Also, got there a few minutes early so we each got a signature cocktail as we waited, and they were both delicious. We will definitely be dining here again; it is one of Minneapolis' true gems!
My husband and I went to Ichiban's on our honeymoon 23 years ago. We live in Des Moines, but whenever we get to Minneapolis, this is where we eat. We love it!
Ichiban has been a favorite of mine my entire life, from prom 25 years ago to going there with elementary aged kids now. Somebody wrote that it wasn't too kid-friendly and I guess it depends on the ages of the kids. Our children are 8 and 11 and VERY energetic and the chef and server were very friendly with them and the meal kept them busy eating and watching for an hour.
We went as a group of 7 which was great because a table seats 8. The cook was fun, the food was amazing, all service staff were attentive and very quick, price was decent and the overall ambiance was fun. I would definitely go again and recommend to others.
The chefs are amazing! They are hardworking and very talented. Must take a lot of practice and patience to do what they do.

MARTIN, Tenn. - The University of Tennessee at Martin men's basketball squad looks to wrap up a slot in the upcoming Ohio Valley Conference tournament when it travels to Austin Peay for the regular season finale on Saturday, March 2 at the Dunn Center. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.
The Skyhawks (9-19, 5-10 OVC) are currently battling with three other teams for the final two spots in next week's OVC tournament. UT Martin can clinch a spot with a win or a SIU Edwardsville loss at Eastern Illinois and could potentially earn the No. 7 seed if both the Skyhawks and SIU Edwardsville were to win their respective games.
UT Martin is coming off a big 69-68 victory at OVC West leader Murray State on Thursday. The Skyhawks led for almost 35 minutes in that game and received double-digit scoring outputs from Mike Liabo (20 points) and Myles Taylor (15).
Austin Peay (7-23, 3-12) enters the game having lost three straight, including a 108-81 home loss to Southeast Missouri on Thursday night. Travis Betran's 26 points led four Governors who reached double-figures in the scoring column, but Austin Peay could not overcome an OVC-record 20 three-pointers by Southeast Missouri, who shot 67 percent from the field including 61 percent from three-point range.
Fans can watch the game live, free of charge on the OVC Digital Network or follow along with live stats by clicking on the links above. Locally, fans can tune into Star 95.1 FM for the radio call, featuring Chris Brinkley (play-by-play) and Tom Britt (color).

CARTHAGE - A former Moore County school bus driver is accused of sending sexually explicit texts to a 16-year-old boy, the Sheriff's Office said.
Troy Jareau Thomas, 25, of the 300 block of Gaines Street, was charged Thursday with indecent liberties with a child, soliciting a child by computer and sexual battery.
Thomas was a bus driver for Southern Middle and Pinecrest High schools. He resigned Monday, the Moore County school system said in a news release.
Thomas began working as a substitute bus driver in May 2008, the school system said.
The victim's mother found the texts over the weekend, said Capt. Bill Mackey with the Moore County Sheriff's Office. The boy was 15 when he allegedly began receiving the texts, Mackey said.
Mackey would not say how many texts were exchanged. Thomas also is accused of having sexual contact with the victim, Mackey said.
Principals at South Middle and Pinecrest High schools sent letters to parents whose children rode buses Thomas operated. The letters assured parents that background checks are conducted on all prospective schools system employees and that the safety and well-being of students is a priority, the release read.
Moore County School Police assisted the Sheriff's Office with the investigation.
"We don't have any information that he (Thomas) did anything with students on his school bus," Mackey said.
Thomas was released on a $75,000 unsecured bond.

Good DrivePros: It's sturdy, fairly reliable, unless you'd take it to a dangerous construction zone, sleek design. Cons: Could have faster transfer rate, needs a longer cord, otherwise no problems here. Did you find this review helpful? |
Awesome!Pros: Holds EVERYTHING! Very nice transfer rate, and sleek design! Buy it now!! Cons: None :D Did you find this review helpful? |
One reads it, one doesntPros: Cheap enough. Comes with its own USB cord. Cons: The laptop "sees" it. The desktop does not. Hmmm. Other Thoughts: I am sure there is a simple reason. Just had not had this happen before. Did you find this review helpful? |
Excellent/Durable Drive!Pros: I have been backpacking across Africa for 4 months and this drive has held up wonderfully! In addition to the relatively fast 300Mbps (30MBPS) transfer speed it also is true to its name when it says it's "Water & Shock Proof". Cons: To keep the rubber flap in (that protects the micro-usb port) you have to push on it with some force. I'm not taking off because it does a wonderful job at keeping water out Other Thoughts: Tip: To keep the rubber flap in, and to give it more protection. Make sure the big side of the usb, the side that attaches to your computer, is fully covering the flap! Did you find this review helpful? |
ADATA does it again!Pros: best external HDD and the company is always top of the line! Cons: N/A Did you find this review helpful? |
Great... if it worksPros: Looks neat, stores the cable, and claims to be rugged. Cons: Stopped working after 1 month of use. I had formatted it, loaded it up with files, and never moved it from that computer. Then one day, it wouldn't open and it kept asking to be formatted. I don't want to format it, I want my information. After contacting the company, I'm at a loss of what to do. Here's their response: Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Great external backup drivePros: I have purchased these for several of my customers to backup their servers. They get a couple of different colors and alternate them. They look slick, have decent speeds, and are reliable. Cons: Write speed could be a little faster. Did you find this review helpful? |

High failure rate!Pros: ADATA drives have interesting and sometimes convenient designs at a good price point Cons: I use my external drives a lot - shuttling files back and forth from a sound studio. I've went through 2 of ADATA drives - first one failed within 4 months, I was sent a different model replacement and after about 9 months it refused to be recognized by my Mac - thank goodness I was able to restore the file table and copy the files, but this is not a good track record for a data storage device. Other Thoughts: ADATA drives may be ok for storing non-essential files at home, but definitely not for frequent traveling, intensive or pro use. Manufacturer Response: 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
