White House Press Secretary Jay Carney pauses during a news briefing Friday at the White House. Carney, speaking about a federal appeals court ruling... View Enlarged Image
Four days after President Obama pledged to "protect and defend the Constitution," the U.S. Court of Appeals ruled that he violated that oath in making several appointments last year.
The court said Obama's three "recess" appointments to the National Labor Relations Board weren't recess appointments at all, since the Senate was still in session when he made them.
Assuming the Supreme Court upholds the panel's ruling, all the decisions the board made over the past year will be nullified, since without those three there weren't enough members on the board to make any rulings at all.
The AP story called the decision an "embarrassing setback" for Obama.
But that assumes Obama has the capacity to be embarrassed in this regard at all. There's been little, if any, evidence of that throughout his first term.
In fact, from the moment he got the keys to the White House, Obama often talked as though the separation of powers embedded in the Constitution was little more than a problem to be overcome on his way to "fundamentally changing America."
At one point, he even groused about "this big, messy, tough democracy."
Worse, Obama often acted on that impulse, bypassing Congress at every turn when he didn't get his way.
Obama's many White House "czars," for example, were little more than an attempt to get his people in positions of power without having to work through the normal congressional vetting process.
When Congress defeated his union-backed "card check" ploy, Obama had his NLRB announce a "snap elections" rule to achieve the same goal of bolstering union organizing efforts.
Obama also unilaterally gutted the No Child Left Behind law by issuing waivers to any states that decided to follow his education reforms.
Then, despite clear language in the welfare reform law against waiving work requirements, Obama had his Health and Human Services agency do it anyway.
And when Congress failed to pass the Dream Act, Obama decided to enact much of it on his own, with an executive order telling officers not to deport certain classes of illegal immigrants.
Last fall, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor gathered these and many other examples together in a 33-page report titled "The Imperial Presidency."
Even the New York Times took notice of Obama's "increasingly deliberate pattern ... to circumvent lawmakers."
Given this record, his "recess" appointments to the NLRB should hardly seem surprising. After the Senate refused to confirm the appointments, Obama just declared the Senate out of session and made them anyway.

A Perfect Murder

A Perfect Murder is based on Frederick Knott's play Dial M for Murder, filmed by Alfred Hitchcock in 1954. Married to commodities trader Stephen Taylor (Michael Douglas), Emily Bradford (Gwyneth Paltrow) is romantically involved with artist David Shaw (Viggo Mortensen). Aware of this affair, Stephen researches David's past, visits his loft studio, and informs David that he knows about his aliases, jail sentences, and various cons and scams directed at rich women. Then Stephen offers David $500,000 to murder Emily, and David agrees. The plan is calculated to make the murder look like an accident, but events soon go on an unscheduled course. Enter Detective Mohamed Karaman (David Suchet). Knott's original play opened June 1952 in London, followed by a New York run that began October 1952. Several books and sources describe how Hitchcock's film was made in 3-D but neglect to mention that, despite trade screenings in 3-D, Dial M for Murder was originally released in 1954 with ordinary, flat 2-D prints. It was finally shown to audiences in 3-D during the mid-'80s. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

Add An Unmarried Woman to top of Queue
A New York wife learns about the satisfactions of single life in this landmark 1970s "woman's film." Unlike her dysfunctional friends, vibrant Erica (Jill Clayburgh) seems to have it all: a nice Upper East Side home, a well-adjusted teenage daughter (Lisa Lucas), a job at a Soho art gallery, and a loving husband, Martin (Michael Murphy). Erica falls apart, however, when Martin leaves her for a younger woman. Finally, at her female therapist's urging, Erica ventures out into the world of singlehood, finding solace in female bonding and even casual sex. As she adjusts to her new life, Erica realizes that she likes her freedom and independence. But when she falls in love with sensitive bearded artist Saul (Alan Bates), Erica must decide whether to turn down a lucrative job to spend the summer with her man in Vermont or forge ahead with her new existence. One of a group of new "women's pictures" made in the wake of post-1960s feminism, including Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974) and The Turning Point (1977), An Unmarried Woman updated the genre's concern with relationships and love by turning the heroine's unwedded status into a positive growth experience. The great female stars of the past like Joan Crawford and Bette Davis may be gone, as Erica and her friends mourn, but so is the all-consuming suffering of classical weepies, as writer/director Paul Mazursky ends the film on a note of reserved affirmation. While some critics (including feminists) complained that Saul was too much of a romantic fantasy, An Unmarried Woman was praised for Clayburgh's performance, and earned Oscar nominations for Best Picture, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay. A hit with 1978 audiences, An Unmarried Woman provoked viewer debate over Erica's final choice and its meaning for women. Either way, An Unmarried Woman astutely pointed to how far the new 1970s woman had come -- and how far she still needed to go. ~ Lucia Bozzola, Rovi

Directed by Jonathan Glazer, Birth takes place in New York's Upper East Side, where Anna (Nicole Kidman), a 35-year-old widow, resides. Just as Anna has shaken off what she thought were the final remnants of her old life -- she has even found love with a new man, Joseph (Danny Huston), whom she plans on marrying -- Sean (Cameron Bright), a ten-year-old boy, comes into her life insisting that he is the reincarnation of her late husband. Though she initially brushes off the boy's claims as the result of a crush on her, his grave demeanor and uncanny knowledge of her life leads Anna through a self-reevaluation that not only threatens her marital plans with Joseph (Huston), but also strains her relationship with her mother, Eleanor (Lauren Bacall). ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi

The contradictions of America's simultaneous love and fear of violence go under the microscope in this drama from Danish filmmaker Thomas Vinterberg. Dick (Jamie Bell) is a timid young man growing up in a mining town where he's been deemed to frail to work with the other men. Dick is given a toy gun by a girl who works in a dime store, and he becomes fascinated with the weapon -- especially when it becomes clear that the gun isn't a toy after all. Dick and a handful of other local misfits who are also interested in guns form a gang called "the Dandies," a band of self-styled pacifists who make it their policy to never use their weapons as they lead the town's young people by example. However, as their obsession with firearms grows, Dick and his fellow Dandies are approached by local police chief Krugsby (Bill Pullman), who asks them to look after Sebastian (Danso Gordon), the violent son of Dick's maid Clarabelle (Novella Nelson). At first, the Dandies see this as a challenge to bring Sebastian over to the cause of nonviolence, but soon his influence begins to impact Dick and his compatriots, with devastating results. Scripted by Lars von Trier, Dear Wendy received its North American premiere at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Spike Lee directed this comedy-drama about a woman who falls into a career in phone sex. An African-American woman (Theresa Randle) who aspires to a career as an actress endures a number of dispiriting jobs (handing out leaflets and working as a coat check girl) before reaching the end of her rope at an audition with Q.T. (Quentin Tarantino), a sleazy movie director. Q.T. claims that he wants to offer her a role in his next film -- but since the role requires nudity, she will have to show him her breasts first. After firing her agent, the actress is strapped for cash and is offered a job enacting sexual fantasies for men over the phone. Dubbed "Girl 6" by her employers, the actress is treated with respect by her boss (Jennifer Lewis) and is well-liked by her co-workers. However, she has a hard time emotionally distancing herself from her work, and she finds herself becoming infatuated with Bob (Peter Berg), one of her regular callers, going so far as to set up a meeting with him. As she deals in other people's fantasies for a living, Girl 6 begins retreating into her own world of make-believe, where she can be a sexy screen siren or a butt-kicking blaxploitation star. Meanwhile, her former fiancé (Isaiah Washington), who scrapes by as a shoplifter, desperately wants her to give him another chance, and her next door neighbor, a baseball card collector named Jimmy (Spike Lee), keeps pestering her that she ought to be doing something more positive with her life. Girl 6's supporting cast includes Madonna as one of Girl 6's supervisors, John Turturro as her agent, and Debi Mazar as one of the other phone-sex girls; the film also features an original song score by Prince. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Can a high-attitude African-American politician who says what he thinks stand a chance in a presidential campaign? Mays Gilliam (Chris Rock) is a straight-talking alderman representing a inner-city neighborhood in Washington, D.C. In the midst of a hard-fought race for the White House, the Democratic presidential and vice-presidential candidates are killed in an airline crash, and with little time to prepare a new campaign, the Republican candidate, Vice President Brian Lewis (Nick Searcy), seems all but guaranteed to win. With practically nothing to loose, party head Martin Geller (Dylan Baker) approaches Gilliam and asks him to stand as the Democrat's presidential candidate. While Gilliam is dubious at first, before long his streetwise style and willingness to face the issues head-on earns him surprising figures in the polls, especially after he persuades his short-fused older brother, Mitch Gilliam (Bernie Mac), to join the ticket as vice presidential candidate -- a big jump for a bail bondsman. Gilliam's love life also becomes more complicated as his ex-girlfriend Kim (Robin Givens) decides she wants him back now that he has a shot at the White House, even though Gilliam only has eyes for Lisa (Tamala Jones). Head of State marked the directorial debut for comic and actor Chris Rock, who also co-wrote and co-produced the film. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The debut feature from writer/director Lisa Krueger stars Scarlett Johansson and Aleksa Palladino as the titular Manny and Lo, orphaned teenaged sisters who avoid foster homes by living on the run, stealing food, and sleeping in random model homes. Older sister Lo is the rude, bossy, incompetent leader, and younger sister Manny is her thoughtful, realistic, logical underling. It quickly becomes apparent that Lo is pregnant and they won't be able to continue their wandering lifestyle of "keep moving and you won't get nailed." After a significant stage of denial, Lo goes to a hospital for an abortion and is denied. Quickly running out of options, Lo comes up with plan that seems ridiculous to the observant narrator Manny. Since they don't know anything about birthing babies, they kidnap Elaine (Mary Kay Place), a middle-aged woman dressed as a nurse who works in a maternity store. Together, the three women squat in an abandoned house in the woods so the disgruntled Lo can have her baby. Eventually, the owner of the house comes home and the captive Elaine resorts to a strange solution to the problem. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, Rovi

A rich but bigoted man is forced to confront his ugliest prejudices face to face in this thriller. Frank Kramer (John Rubinstein) is a successful but narrow-minded attorney who comes home one day to discover that his daughter Nicole (Rhea Silver-Smith) is missing. Kramer shortly receives a telephone call from someone who claims to be holding his daughter hostage and gives him instructions to visit a pay phone in one of the most crime-ridden ghettos in New York City. Furious, but too worried not to follow orders, Kramer does as he's told and takes a call at the public phone -- only to be told to go to another phone booth in another, equally dangerous part of town. As Kramer dashes from telephone to telephone while being confronted by muggers, drug dealers, prostitutes, and angry people who simply don't want him in their neighborhood, it becomes evident that the kidnappers aren't just interested in money -- they have a personal grudge against Kramer, and they want their revenge to be psychological as much as financial. In time, Kramer discovers that he does indeed know one of the kidnappers -- Ruby (Amber Kain), the daughter of Kramer's maid, who has pulled the job with the help of her boyfriend -- and he discovers that his ex-wife is no more sympathetic to him than Ruby and her partner. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A frightened and irresponsible girl and an emotionally conflicted woman are brought together under tragic circumstances in this independent drama. Stephanie Daley (Amber Tamblyn) is a 16-year-old girl who while on a school-sponsored ski trip collapses in a puddle of blood; a medical examination reveals that Stephanie has recently given birth, and in a nearby bathroom a newborn child is found dead, flushed down a toilet with its mouth stuffed with toilet paper. While Stephanie insists the child was stillborn and she had no idea she was pregnant, she is charged with killing the infant, and court-appointed psychologist Lydie Crane (Tilda Swinton) is assigned to interview the teenager. Lydie has her own issues with possible parenthood; she's been struggling to have a child after a recent stillbirth, and the matter is taking a toll on her marriage, with her husband, Paul (Timothy Hutton), seeking solace in the arms of another woman. As Stephanie shares with Lydie her feelings about her relationship with her parents, how she lost her virginity, and her growing conviction that God gave her a child as a form of punishment, Lydie finds herself dealing with her own feelings about the child she lost. Meanwhile, Right to Life and Pro-Choice groups threaten to turn Stephanie's trial into a media circus. Stephanie Daley premiered at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The Saints are busy trying to build a solid defense to make another run at the Super Bowl but it comes at a time when the team just doesn't have the cash under the salary cap to sign a batch of free agents.
WWL NFL analyst Mike Detillier said there are a number of current Saints players who could see their deals restructured. Although it might not happen right away, Detillier believes quarterback Drew Brees will almost certainly have to be among them, even though adjusting his deal would be difficult.
''There will be some money management decisions made that will restructure contracts, because how are you going to pay for all of this if you don't?'' Detillier asked rhetorically. He said most contracts are what they call ''fluid.'' That means free up money for today that you must pay later.
''If there is some guarantee down the road to extend that contract and that's what happened with Brady,'' Detillier said, referring to the New England Patriots' Tom Brady.
Without these adjustments, Detillier said the Saints just won't be able to add the players they need to get back on top.

Recipe: Pork Rillettes
Pop quiz: what's the difference between rillettes and pâté? It's a blurry line: pâté is a mixture of ground meat and fat blended into a silky, spreadable paste, while the texture of rillettes is often decidedly more rustic. Some sources claim that rillettes are a "poor man's pâté" since it's crafted from cheaper cuts. Semantics aside, there's nothing unfortunate about this recipe for unctuous pork rillettes from James John Café in Portland.News Feed: February 28, 2011

A number of colliery proprietors own surface rights in the land above the mine and are able to assign small holdings to a proportion of the miners, and for a number of tenants the rendering of labour in the mine is a condition of holding their land. This practice is fairly general in the Giridih field, which is largely held by the East Indian Railway.
Here there are colliery villages entirely peopled with service tenant who retain their holdings at a low rent on condition of rendering a certain number of days' service in the mine. A few colliery owners in the Jharia field acquired proprietary rights in land lying outside the coal-fields with a view to securing labour for their mines from the tenant Enquiries made at our request by the Government of Bihar and Orissa indicate that this method of securing labour is no longer utilised by the collieries themselves, but at the time of our visit we understood that contracts were still given to persons whose interest in land made easier for them to secure labour from their tenants. We are inform that tenants are increasingly ready to avail themselves of the safeguard afforded by the law, but in a service tenancy the rendering of service is a legal obligation in return for the holding of the land. An undertaking to render service in a mine as the condition of holding land is, in general, an undesirable form of contract. We recognise a difference between lands away from the colliery and actual colliery lands, including those held to protect the owner from claims for damage arising from his underground operations. In regard to the first, we recommend that, for the future, the law should prohibit the creation of tenancies with colliery service as a condition of the holding. We recommend also that existing tenancies should be examined by Government to see whether they can be converted to rent holdings with equity to all concerned. The position in respect of lands held for the purpose of working coal is different. In many cases the colliery owner must retain full control and cannot afford to lease it on terms which would give rise to permanent tenancy rights. The grant to miners of permission to cultivate it is usually in the interest of both parties, and there is no reason why such lands should not be held by colliery employees as an amenity or part remuneration of their service so long as they continue to be employed. The determination of the lands held for the purpose of working coal should be made by Government.

No. As I explained, we didn't take any action towards that project, since it would be meaningless to "witch hunt" it so to speak. The only thing we did was publically denouncing that practice, that's all.
And frankly, we don't really have spare time to either hunt them down or to engage negociations with Alchemist anyway (speaking of which, as you may expected, Alchemist basically ignored us big time).

Hi, I actually just registered here on the forums to ask this (I probably will be sticking around afterwards though) but I was wondering if you knew when a download version of Episode 8 will be available. I don't know if you were going to finish the patch before putting it up, but I thought I'd come here and ask.

Hey! Got a small little question here.
I downloaded the free patch of EP1, but now that I'm finished, I went to buy the rest of the games online. Unfortunately, I got a message from Witch Hunt that the patch isn't available in Ireland. So, I was wondering if there was any chance you could release it for download here? If you have the time, that is. Sorry if I went a bit off-topic!

As in the download is region-locked? If you can't get the patch I'm sure its been rehosted somewhere, but if its a problem where your computer is in a different locale or something just download applocale and run the patch in american locale

Hi Noodle311!
Are you having problems with downloading the English patch or the actual game? There are two separate components required to play Umineko in English. Firstly, you need the game itself (in Japanese). This is available as a download from Hobibox's website. Secondly, you need the English patch which is available from Witch Hunt's website. Due to 'server issues', the game is not available to download for all countries. Ireland is one of the countries where it is not available. If there is enough demand for it, it will become available in more countries. However, I was under the impression that the English patch was available worldwide. There is a US mirror and an EU mirror, but I'd be surprised if there were restrictions on downloading it. As for technical limitations, that's not an issue. NScripter only supports Japanese, which is why the English patch includes ONScripter-EN which is designed to support English. The only scenario where you'd use AppLocale is if you want to play the game in Japanese using the original NScripter engine.

The patch itself is freely distributable and available worldwide. The digital download from Hobibox for the game itself is only available in certain countries, due to legal issues I presume.
However, that doesn't stop you from importing it. You can buy it from websites like Paletweb. Plus you get the box, and the box art is awesome. |

Unfortunately, it seems like the EU mirror doesn't seem to work where I am. But, after reading Madman6510's advice, I think I'll go with the DVD version just to save the hassle. But, thank you for trying to help anyway! I appreciate it.

To be honest, there isn't really an advantage to getting the DVD version unless you really want a physical copy. The download version is probably cheaper, you get everything in the DVD version, plus you don't have to wait for the DVD to be shipped over from Japan.
And as ghost_zero5 said, you still need the English patch regardless of which version you get (unless you can read Japanese). Note that there are currently (to my knowledge) four mirrors (two EU mirrors and two US mirrors). The 'EU mirror' link randomly redirects you to one of the EU mirrors and the 'US mirror' link randomly redirects you to one of the US mirrors. If one doesn't work, just try another.

I'm able to connect to all the mirrors, so it might be a connection problem (which should probably sort itself out within a few days) or to do with the way you're trying to download the patch. Perhaps using a different browser to download the patch may help?

Zero of the roulette
Sorry if this isn't the proper place to ask about PONScripter, but I didn't find any other thread even mentioning it except Higurashi Game Translation project.
I tried asking this on UncleMion's page a couple of months ago, but as I haven't got a response I'll try asking here. Im trying to program an experimentary VN with PONScripter (the western language support is nice to have as well as the prettier fonts). Im no brilliant programmer, but I find NScripter relatively easy to understand, so with practice I think Ill be okay. What Id like to know is if PONScripter can use a bigger resolution that 800×600, preferably 16:9 ratio (1280×720 is probably what I'm aiming for). The Umineko PS3fication patch seems to have been succesful in this (well with ONScripter), with a ;mode1920 to get HD resolution. I tried ;mode1280 and ;mode1920 on both PONScripter and ONScripter, but no luck. Is this a case of the onscripter-en.exe itself having been modified? Are there any updates on the horizon adding 16:9 support or could I get some instructions how I could attempt to fix it myself? Also, ;mode800 didn't work when I had the script as pscript.dat, but with 0.utf it did work. The other important thing Id like to find out is how to make it possible to advance the text by scrolling down with the mouse wheel? It should be possible, as Umineko does it. I find it more comfortable than the continuous clicking. If you have suggestions of other good visual novel engines I'd like to hear it. I know engines like Ren'Py and Novelty, but I'd like to hear your opinions on them.

I think NScripter is pretty much outdated nowadays. If you'd like a powerful VN engine, I'd suggest giving KiriKiri a go (it's the one Type-Moon is currently using, if I recall correctly).
On a sidenote, special western characters outside of Shift-JIS such as àèòùì can be made to work even on ONScripter with a little trick

I seem to have a problem, but I don't know if it is the translated version or the normal version. Anyway, when I play the musicbox on shuffle, sometimes it will go quiet after changing song. It will still continue playing all the songs, because when I open it again, it goes from somewhere into the song. It also sometimes cuts out a song, for example with executioner it will stop at 3 minutes, and go to the next song.
Thanks in advance! |

Apizza Scholls
Online Reservations
Told by friends that it was best pizza in PDX. its certainly in the discussion. Excellent
It was our first time eating here and it was for a birthday party for my son. I thought the price was fair and the food was very good. The guy who took our order was also nice and helpful. I was very happy with the restaurant overall. It was clean too :).
Excellent Napoli style pizza, perfectly cooked. Toppings fresh and delicious. Awesome homemade Italian sausage. Good value. Overall great dining experience. Reservations were key, we were seated in 10 minutes, walk ins were waiting over an hour. Would definitely go again when in Portland and recommend to all thin crust pizza lovers.
The pizza is absolutely delicious. Our server was great too. But the staff tasked with greeting and seating people were awful. There were 3 staff members near the check in sign, & they all seemed to be purposefully ignoring us -- for over 10 minutes. Yes the place was busy, but they could at least give us a look and perhaps a, "I'll be with you in a minute." I finally interrupted one who was entering something on the computer & trying her damnedest not to make eye contact with me. I told her we had reservations that started 5 minutes ago. Without looking up, she said she'd be with me in a moment. It was a bad start to a great night. Once we were seated, our server (a different woman) was really great. And so was the pizza.
I love this place! This is a small neighborhood pizza parlor. It is ALWAYS packed and the food is the reason why! They have interesting salads (big enough to share) and the pizza is fantastic. The pizza dough is made fresh daily, hand tossed and when it's gone it's gone (usually around 8pm), so get there early (open at 5pm) wait in line on sidewalk out front (or limited waiting inside where you can have great beers or wine) for you turn to experience this great food. The service is fast and friendly and the place is energetic! I live 800 miles from this restaurant and when I travel to Portland "A Pizza Scholls" is always a go to restaurant!!!
Hankering for pizza and beer? Look no further. It's that simple.
FANTASTIC!! THERE ARE NO WORDS.... Should have sent a poet.......
We have always wanted to try this restaurant but hadn't because of the "no reservation" policy. We have two small children and we hardly ever get a night out, so we were never willing to spend a rare "date night" driving a distance, waiting in line, and possibly not getting a chance to dine even after doing that! Once I saw that you could make reservations through Open Table, I booked a table for my husband's 40th. Birthday and he LOVED it - thank you! I appreciate the policy change and we will be returning in the near future (via Open Table, of course) for sure!
It's as simple as this, we drive down from seattle to eat pizza here. Of course we mix it in with other activities, but that's how good it is...new seating arrangements a big improvement.
We have eaten there about half a dozen timed this year, and nothing can come close to the caliber of their food. The most fantastic Caesar salad on the West Coast, and the greatest Capicolla Pizza EVER !!! You don't know what fantastic and great is until you've experienced Apizza Scholls.
2nd Annual Family vacation to explore Portland, would not be complete without a stop at Apizza Scholls. I love to find the very best of Pizza World when traveling (travel metros extensively for work). The pizza at Apizza takes a backseat to no one, always fresh, sauce and dough are obviously prepared daily with hugs and kisses, the oven gives it just a hint of smoke and toppings are obviously hand selected by a caring culinary artist who would not think of dressing anything that did not meet the finest quality. 5 Star - make reservations. Also, love the eclectic music variety.
This is the best pizza I have ever eaten in Portland. So good, it reminds me of east coast pizza.
We recently moved to the Portland area from the northeast and we were psyched to finally find a great pizza out here after several failed attempts. We were seated almost immediately upon arrival. Those without reservations waited for over an hour. The pizza was great, possibly worth the wait, but standing on the sidewalk for an hour instead of using OpenTable is crazy!
I grew up in New Haven, Connecticut, but have lived in Portland for quite a few years. Finding the Apizza Scolls makes New Haven style pizza was wonderful. It is the icing on the cake, making Portland THE perfect place to live!
Definitely use open table to make a reservation. Walkins were having to wait almost an hour. We ordered a ceasar salad and a pizza. They were both outstanding. Don't be afraid to order a half / half pizza to try more options!
The pizza is just like the pizza we had in Italy- that is hard to find in Portland. Believe me, we've been looking! I mean, other pizza shops are good. They're just not Italian-style. Excellent job, Apizza Scholls, and thank you for the wonderful service, too.
Every time I come to Portland I have to stop here.
Not really much to else needs to be said. Pizza was great. We're definitely going back if we're in Portland.
Apizza is by far the best pizza I have had in portland. The crust in crunchy and has a great char to it. I tried the Cesar salad which is also great, great flavors of lemon and garlic. This is a place you can go on a casual date, or go with a group of friends, but i would always make reservations for this place now that they accept them, when we walked in we were almost turned away since they were out of dough, but when I let them know we had reservations they seated us within minutes.
I plan on visiting this place again, over and over. The pizza, service and prices are great. If you love pizza, visit this place. It's the best pizza in all of Portland, if not the world.
This place is an absolute gem! The pizza is like no other and it is reminiscent of Neopolitan-style with that airy/charred crust. Make sure you plan in advance because it is a hot spot on Hawthorne. Declicious!
The Tartufo is the best cheese pizza in the Universe. If you get the Margarita, be sure to add anchovies.
The leftovers smashed together in aluminum foil make the delicious pizza worthless for the next day. Small boxes for leftovers would be a plus.
I have been going to Scholl's for at least 10 years, after a NYC buddy living in Portland emailed me years ago saying try Scholl's. I went once and became an enthusiastic, if only occasional, customer ever since (probably at least 10 years). Anyhow, I live a 1.5 hour drive (one way) from Portland, so I only get to Scholl's a couple of times a year. My recent visit really surprised me. I always order the Marguerite pizza. The dough was WAY TOO SALTY, and in my not so humble opinion, ruined the taste of the pizza. The sauce tasted completely bland, no flavor or zing at all. Of course the salt in the dough could have easily ruined the rest of the pizza. House salad was great, but the pizza was just OK. Anyone listening at Scholl's????
The pizza was as good as anyplace. Oils and sauce superb. The combinations were very well balanced and somewhat different than most other pizza places, but excellent none the less. When I'm back to Portland Apizza Scholls is on my list of places to eat at.
When asked to pick the best pizza in Portland (and believe me, I get asked a lot), I always say that it's impossible to choose just one. But certainly Apizza Scholls in in the top 3. My personal feeling is that this pizza gets really close to classic Neapolitan thin crust pizza from the Bronx, circa 1975. And that is high praise indeed.
Service and pizza were both excellent and have been consistently wonderful every visit. Best pizza I've had in Portland so far. They played a Fleetwood Mac album my first time in - so nice.
My husband & I saw something about this place on a tv food show and made a special trip to Portland to check it out. Super Yummy pizza and delicious salad. Huge servings. Delightful staff. A line forms soon after it opens for dinner so don't be late to the table! We'll be going back again and again for sure. Well worth the trip up from San Francisco (plus we had a cyclo cross race to build up our appetites beforehand).
pizza is made just as it should be. There are a lot of rule here, no single slices, only 1 size pie, limit to the toppings, but it is all for the good. Definitely worth it.
I came here as the place was listed on Thrillist's Top 33 Pizzas in America. The list had some variety (wood fired, coal fired, thin vs deep dish), and I enjoyed about 3 others on the list in my travels. So, I sought this place out while in Portland. Well, Apizza Scholls with the funny name and pac man logo didn't disappoint. I wouldn't say it was better than others I've enjoyed on the list, but I wouldn't kick it off my plate. The crust was nicely done with some crisp to it but not overly chewy and just the right amount of cheese and toppings ratio. The sauce was good, not memorable. The pork shoulder topping was quite good and worth trying (like Canadian bacon if you want a visual). A good experience, but not worth going out of your way
This was a great place and I would recommend it to anybody. It's an adorable little place, clean and with a great ambiance. The pizzas are huge and fantastic--yummy crust, good balance of sauce and cheese, great selection for dairy-sensitive people. The only reason I'm not giving it five stars is the waitstaff weren't very friendly. Our waiter didn't really smile much and did not seem to like his job at all. It was a bummer because the rest of it was so fantastic!! Still worth a visit, but don't expect too much from the waitstaff.
This pizza is the bomb!! Crisp, chewy, aromatic, and topped with just the right amount of top notch ingredients. Our service has always been great and the employees are pleasant and helpful. We love, love, love it and the Ceasar salad and anti pasti are good too.
Great antipasti, well crafted cross between Chicago and New York pizza styles with a unique Oregon Stamp. Glad that reservations , though limited, are now possible. Over the last two months we have used reservations twice and walk-in once. If walking in either have there all your party there when they open at 5:00 pm or go later. when people are cycling out from the first seating. Service is very responsive to individual allergy needs and very. good at what they do. Beer and wine choices are good, varied, and affordable by glass and bottle. Parking can be hard but doable. You will need to look for spaces within a couple of blocks of the restaurant so take that into account when planning to make a reservation. I
Best pizza and Cesar salad in town. Hidden gem in a nondescript building. Price is moderately high, but worth it for the food quality.
Possibly the best pizza I've had so far in Portland. (Also up there: Pyro, Ken's.) The trick is they make it look super simple. Thin crust, fresh ingredients, no overloading on the toppings, and always sticking to their basic recipe. The result is a very thin but very flavorful crust that is the opposite of soggy, delicious but not overpowering flavors on top, and the right amount of cheese to keep things bound together while not burning the roof of your mouth with boiling grease. Oh and the salads and drink selections are great too. I'd give those their own review but the pizza takes the cake.
Oozy tomatoey thin crispy perfect crusty margarita pizza is the best on the house!! Caesar salad is to die for, if you haven't eaten pizza here you must go!
The name says it all. Truly an amazing pizza joint with a great staff and superb rotating taps!!! Reservations highly recommended.
Pizza is my favorite food, and Apizza Scholls is my favorite pizza. It never disappoints. Think crispy crust and great toppings. Plus the Caesar salad is my second favorite (next to my own... LOL).
I have lived in the Northeast near New York City for part of my adult life. The pizza at Apizza Scholls is the only pie in Portland/Vancouver that comes close to the taste and quality of the pizzas in New York City. They also have wonderful salads to start with and the salads are big enough to share.
We saw a review on the Food Network and thought this would be a great place for my husband's birthday. Great food, service was great, and prices were affordable. We will surely will have a return dinner there and recommend to friends. Thank you.
My wife and I drove down to Portland for the weekend to eat at few places we had heard great things about. We are so glad we chose to visit Apizza Scholls! We have eaten pizza all over the country and we rate it number one! Great east coast pizza; excellent sauce, crust and fresh toppings. We are already planning our return trip in a few weeks.
Pizza was great. I've read that they have some crazy rules that you should check their web page for. We went in an low traffic time with reservation so we didn't notice.
Love this pizza and the Caesar salade is delicious too.
This place should be on any Foodie's list for great pizza in PDX. As an ex-New Yorker I have strong opinions about good pizza and Apizza Scholls makes an awesome pie. As my husband said, "It tastes like New York." It's our favorite pizza in Portland, by far! The salads, anti-pasta, beer, and wine offerings are also great. Plus, they offer Moxie soda (delicious) and It's-it ice cream sandwiches :)
My husband and I both love pizza. We go back and forth trying to rate our top 3 choices in Portland. Of course Apizza Scholls is one of the top 3. The great part about not being able to agree on which one is number 1 we keep rotating between our top choices. Apizza Scholls crust is perfect, topping selection is great and the salads are good. I love that we can now make reservations. :-)
wonderful Ceasar salad, Wonderful Pizza, and wonderful and welcoming people waiting on us. A real hit with anyone we introduce it to.
The pizza was awesome. Our server was unfriendly, and didn't even look at us when she spoke. However, she attended our needs in a timely manner.
Always a great time with amazing pizza. Love the ceasar salad!
I travel quite a bit for business both nationally and internationally. I do not care if I'm gone for 4-5 days on the east coast or 12-15 days in Asia. I could be eating a variety of different foods during these trips but when I get on that plane to come back to PDX I get that craving and I know that I will be visiting my go to place, Apizza Scholls within a few days. Make a reservation on Open Table, order a Caesar salad, Veggie Plate, NY Red with Capicolla (ask for it to be cooked for a minute or 2 longer for that cripsy crust) and a pitcher of Anchor Steam; OH MAN, Come on Baby; does it get any better than that? NFW, Foooorgettttaboutit; Now That's A Happy Ending!! Nuf Said BB
Delicious pizza, it's our go to for birthdays and now our 1 year old can't get enough of it either

Spicy and delicious Indian food with warm Indian Hospitality is here. The Muglai Chicken is fantastic
Spicy and delicious Indian food with warm Indian Hospitality is here. The Muglai Chicken is fantastic
The staff were friendly and helpful. Atmosphere very relaxed and welcoming, pretty table settings and décor. The food was well spiced with a depth of flavour, and a very large range. It is one of the smartest curry houses we have ever visited, and deserves is excellent reputation. Would go there again if in Nairobi. Only £32 for us both,... More
I hadn't been to Haandi in a while, I was pleasantly surprised to find they have refurbished beautifully! The ambience was excellent and staff seemed much more motivated. Food was fantastic as always! Great evening out!
My husband absolutely loves this restuarant, I do agree that the food is wonderful and gives you a tast of India. Their menu is extensive and there is something for everyone to choose from. I have never had a bad meal at this restuarant. The desserts are not great, so we usually do not have dessert here.
Over the years the price has become more expensive and portions smaller. Food is indeed very good - desserts are grossly overpriced, The new décor is good, service is prompt.
Nairobi has a small if excellent selection of fine eateries and Haandi is one of the best as well as most well established. Set in Westlands Mall (not Westgate Mall). In the typical style of indian restauarants all over, the decor is a little odd and somewhat out of step with the food. Service however is excellent and I especially... More
You pay for the service and the shiny restaurant, more than the food. For the money it could be better, but then it is a nice place to go for a big group as you can guarantee they'll take care of you.
Food is ok ok and not so up to the mark, No value for money. Place is also look old and Staff is nice, Need improve in indian food and curry.
The food there is truly delicious, but the reason for the low rating is the absolute robbery they pull of with the price of rice. Seriously, 500 Ksh for the rice?! That's $6! You'd think your meal comes with rice? No sir, you have to get it separately. Oh, and a nice little racket management is running: if you put... More
Amazing variety of Indian food. Felt as if I was in India. The food tasted nice and the service was also good.

Pizza Express is back on the low performer list on 102 South Arroyo in Rio Hondo.
The restaurant scored 31 demerits on its latest initial inspection recently released to the Food Patrol.
An inspector found mold on pizza containers, improper hand-washing, no towels for proper sanitation and dirty equipment during the February check up.
It was back in 2008 when the owner, Maria Lucio, first denied being affiliated with the restaurant after she scored high demerits.
"How do you think that looks when you tell us you're not the owner, you don't know who the owner is… and as a matter of fact… you go on the telephone pretending to call the owner when this whole time you were the owner?" Action 4's Ryan Wolf asked back then.
"Because this is my business and I can handle it anyway I want to," she responded.
"Do you think that looks sneaky?" Ryan asked.
"I don't care," she said. "Frankly my dear, I don't care." This time around the Food Patrol returned in hopes of learning more information into what's been done to clean up the restaurant which scored 3 demerits on a re-inspection.
"I have no comment," the owner said just before quickly going into a back room.

Online Reservations
We really enjoyed our meal, the service, and the atmosphere at Elevation.
We enjoyed our experience once again. It is fun to see what the cuisine will be and the presentation is always beautiful. Our waiter did bring me the wrong entree but it was quickly taken care of. We will return for another special occasion. D & L
Excellent dinner, especially the charcuterie, crab cakes, bread, halibut/salmon, and dessert! Great value for the money.
I am so glad we chose to go again to Elevation! The food was fantastic, our server was prompt and personable and the employees were knowledgeable and friendly.
This was a fun time for our neighbors. Thank you for the wonderful meal and great time!
Elevation is run by culinary students at the local college, set in the tall pine trees on campus. The interior is pretty and modern, high ceilings, a fireplace for winter and a large outside area for summer. An extra area that can be closed off for groups. Students cook the meals and also are the wait staff so there are "oops" moments occasionally, but for the most part they are very professional. We enjoyed joking with them, asking questions about their classes, etc. The food is often superior but is always good. The menu is set price at $30 with three courses; each course has several choices including a vegetarian dish. Atmosphere is fairly quiet, even on a busy night. It's a favorite with locals and for good reason.
We went out to celebrate birthdays, and it was a wonderful time!
Food was amazing and the service was great! I will definitely be back for dinner again!
Great imagination, flawless execution and attentive, efficient service makes this the premiere dining spot in Bend. On top of that, three courses for $30 and only a $10 corkage this is the BEST eating bargain anywhere. The only drawback: they're only open three days a week.
We could not have asked for better food or service! Looking forward to returning for another delightful evening or maybe for lundh the next time! If you want to enjoy good food and the ability to talk with friends, this is the place!
The food was very good both in flavor and presentation. At $30/person it is a great value. As good as many of the top restaurants in Bend.
Thank You for a memorable evening with a fabulous dining experience. Our friends from out of town were also very impressed! Will be back!
This culinary school's restaurant has delicious food beautifully presented for an unbeatable price. $30 fixed price menu includes choice of appetizer, main and dessert. The Dungeness crab cakes were the best!
Given the quality of the food and service, the place should have been full. Excellent food, beautifully presented at a very fair price. The $30 three course dinner menu includes beef tenderloin, salmon and crab cakes among the choices. The tenderloin was perfectly cooked and sauced. The appetizer selections include a charcuterie plate. Don't miss it. The culinary institute makes proscuitto, smoked bacon and salami in-house. Paired with a variety of Oregon cheeses and a glass of Oregon wine, its a treat for the tastebuds. Desert didn't disappoint either. If the King Estate Vin Glace desert wine is still on the menu, pick a desert to go with that wine. The carmelized poach peach with ice cream is a good match.
For a unique and delicious experience, visit Elevation at Cascade Culinary Institute. Whether a la carte lunch or prix fixe dinner, you won't be disappointed with the quality and creativity of your meals. Occasionally service requires a bit of patience - especially because it is hard to remember with food this good that it is a learning experience for the student servers. Tips support scholarships, so you give while you get!
Being taken care of by the students made for an enjoyable and memorable dining experience. Everyone seemed to know a tremendous amount about what was going on, and the chefs did not disappoint. Overall, a wonderful night out.
Three ladies and a child - not the easiest unch group. The staff went over and above to accommodate our needs. The food was good, although a limited menu. The student servers did a good job, but could have shown a bit more confidence. Beautiful venue and location.
Crab cakes, excellent...wanted more! Salmon perfect, great flavor Pasta...too much corn...other wise good
For a special and unique treat, try Elevation at the Cascade Culinary Institute. Students go above and beyond to give diners a great experience. Hard to remember this is a teaching and learning gig! The food is consistently amazing.
Had family visiting. We decided to try it out for lunch. Best food decision we've made! Without a doubt, the best burger I've ever eaten! The restaurant was immaculately kept, the waiter was outstanding and knew the menu very well. I can't say enough good things about our experience. We will definitely return!
This was the perfect place for our "girlfriend" luncheon! Loved the elegant atmosphere, the quietness and the artful, delicious food. My only "criticism" is on our server. She was very nice, but didn't know much about the food that was being served and lacked a little style in serving us.
The students at Cascade Culinary Institute fill the roles of cook and server at this fine dining restaurant co-located with the school. Dinner service has changed to an a la carte menu (instead of prix fixe) and all the items incorporate regional, Oregon and local ingredients where possible. On this particular visit, we brought our 8-year old and the staff went off-menu to recommend a hamburger plate in the style served on the current lunch menu. The wait staff were friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. The dishes were prepared elegantly and expediently. Always a great experience!
We had a wonderful and relaxed dinner. Thanks for making this a special evening!
Very good food, nice afternoon on the patio, excellent service. It is hard to tell this is a teaching experience as the experience was first class.
Every staff member does an outstanding job. Food is awesome. Elegant and family friendly. they made us feel super special.
The service and food can be a little uneven, but usually the food is excellent. You have to give the students credit for trying hard to please, and that can be part of the charm of eating here. They have raised the prices, though, so it no longer is a dinner bargain.
Elevation has stepped away from its fixed-price menu which has been one of the best values in Bend, even though the price had gone up by 30% over the past few years. It is now à la carte which, if you go for the 3-course meal (appetizer, main dish and desert) can bring the price up over the former $31 charge. On the other hand, the food is excellent and the wine list provides many Oregon wines, most quite reasonably priced. Elevation also has the most beautiful dining room in the area. It remains right near the top of our list of the best restaurants in Central Oregon and continues to be an excellent value.
Excellent food and service. Reasonable prices for the quality you get. Staff and faculty are most attentative and helpful I don't think that we could have asked for more. We'll certainly be back.
Loved the food displays out front! Ambiance great. Staff courteous and professional. Food well presented and exceeded expectations. Dessert amazing! Server attentive, maybe a little too much. I know it's a fine line in reading guests. He did bring us the check without asking us if we wanted dessert. I went inside to request server who was completely apologetic. Dessert was fabulous! Definitely be back. Thanks so much.
From the food to the attentiveness of our server, everything was great! I was especially impressed that the chef created me a vegetarian meal without eggs that actually included protein! That is so rare and I was grateful. If I could only figure out how to make that chocolate praline at home...
The Elevation gave us gals a wonderful experience for a birthday celebration with fresh food, prepared with excellence in a beautiful setting.
My husband and I had been wanting to try Elevation and support our local culinary school for some time. So glad we decided to celebrate our special anniversary there! We both agreed to share this gem of Central Oregon with our neighbors, friends and family. Thank you Elevation staff!
Elevation always provides a very pleasant experience. Both kitchen staff and front of the house folks are enthusiastic and concerned about your enjoyment. Appetizers veer toward foodie-ism on occasion but there's always something familiar as well; either way, it's good eats. Entree options run the gamut of meat, poultry, seafood, vegetarian and all offer several tasty sides. One virtue is their flexibility - if you don't like sweet potatoes but they're one of the sides for your entree, simply request a side from another protein. No "no substitutions" caveat here! Desert offerings include a local fruit treatment as well as a nod to chocolate lovers, all delicious. Good prices, so be generous...all tips go into COCC's scholarship fund.
Great lunch. The burgers were amazing, and the ladies loved the halibut. The server was knowledgeable and explained each dish. He was polite and friendly.
Three of us had lunch at Elevation as First-Timers, and it was delightful! Good menu choices, fab presentation, efficient and friendly waiter (Jesse), and a lovely spot on the outdoor patio. The freshly baked turkey for the Cobb salad was beautifully cooked, and the praline/chocolate dessert was award-winning caliber! I'm returning next week for lunch with another friend. Looking forward to another tasty meal!
We really like to visit the Cascade Culinary Institute's restaurant called Elevation. The students do a great job practicing their craft and it's fun to be served at a table with ALL the accouterment ... a fancy touch and good practice for the staff. All the food is delicious and the selection quite diverse for the few options offered each term. Try it. You'll be back again and again.
Enjoyed a wonderful lunch for the second time in a week. Introduced a friend to Elevation, and we both had a very good lunch, with excellent service, beautiful table in a quiet setting, and a better than fabulous chocolate dessert. Too cold to sit outside this time, so enjoyed the ambience of the dining room. The beet salad was a treat--just a perfect "starter."
I had friends from out of town and they were very impressed with the COCC Culinary Program. One friend even stated she would let her "quilt" friends know about it when they attend the Sisters Quilt Festival. Very lovely dinner.
We enjoyed discovering this restaurant which had been recommended to us by someone who used to live in Bend. The three of us each ordered something different, so we were able to taste a bit of each. My fish dish was delicious, but the portion was very small. My friends had adequate portions (lamb shanks). The chocolate dessert was amazing! Sorry I can't remember exactly what the dishes were called... Very attentive host & wait staff. Enjoyed talking to the students about their class experience. We wish them all well!
The most one can say about any restaurant is that it feels like dining in the home of a fabulous cook as an honored guest. Elevation meets and exceeds that benchmark. And the food! The star was the wheat hazelnut bread. Every food item was exquisitely prepared--the steak perfectly pink, the agnolotti tender, the salmon beignets light and moist--but the bread was inspired. Curiously, the only smudge on the evening involved the bread. The very tasty orange honey butter was still chilled and shredded the bread. Finally, we should compliment the hosts on their restraint in letting the servers perform unimpeded. Rare forbearance indeed, a mark of the professionalism that dominated the evening. Bravo!
This was my first experience at Elevation. I feel this is the best restaurant in town with the best food. The ambiance was perfect, my guests and I were overwhelmed that this place has been here and we had not been there over and over. This will certainly lead to many other times enjoying Elevation. Your questionaire asked about the noise level - there were too few people there at lunch to make much noise, but I noticed that over the dining areas there was wood baffling. This is something many of the Bend restaurants should try. Thank you for a wonderful experience. Kay Flylnn
The food and pricing were excellent! Most of the staff working were students on their last term before graduation and did a wonderful job!
The food was spectacular. Since it is a teaching kitchen, the service was slower than I would have liked. Since we left plenty of time for the experience, it was totally fine. It was very formal and my dining partner was drinking from everyone else's glass of water. The waiters were very helpful without making anyone feel silly for not knowing.
Three of us had a wonderful lunch there this week. We each had something different and all were delicious. This was a relief as we had two disappointing visits a few months ago. The issues then were primarily that the food was served somewhat cold. This time, everything was perfect and our wait person was excellent.
Server was excellent, as was maitre de. However, the cod wasn't cooked completely for both guests. The pasta dish was heavy with too much sauce. Broasted vegetables were excellent. Didn't select dessert.
Great presentation of food and great tastes.Overall outstanding.. Would like a little warmer by the windows (ate in Nov.) more wine selection beyond Oregon Wines. and a broader selection if possible.
The restaurant at Central Oregon Community College Junger's Culinary Institute, called Elevations, is extremely underutilized, in my humble opinion. This is a "teaching lab" for the Culinary students at COCC. I Met a friend for lunch this week and there were only three other tables being served during our meal. Food is wonderful and unique. Menu changes every three months with the new term. Patience is needed to overlook the giggles of the servers, and the serving errors. Ambiance is elegant--white napkins and table cloths for lunch! Views are great from the expansive windows. Price reasonable. Best of all----it's quiet while your eating, making it easy to enjoy conversation with whomever your dining with! Hidden gem of Bend!!!
Excellent lunch. Menu is limited but there is an option for everyone. Mussels, Draper Valley Fried Chicken, and Columbia River Craw fish were excellent. Learning environment for servers, but they were doing very well. I will absolutely go back for lunch and/or dinner.
We had an excellent meal, loved the menu focus on local ingredients. Our kids were really into it as they had recently watched Junior MasterChef and Elevation was the perfect compliment to their new interest in how great food is prepared.
For a special dinner celebration the perfect place
