The LOYOLA MAROON Vol. XXXV Loyola University, New Orleans, La., Friday, February 28, 1958 No. 1 Wolves To NCAA For the third time in five years, Loyola University's varsity cagers have been selected as an at-large team in the NCAA tournament. The Wolves, who lost the flip to decide the site of the forthcoming game, will meet Oklahoma State's Cowpokes in the regional playoff on March 11 at Stillwater. The Cowpokes, who are coached by Hank Iba, have been among the nation's top 20 teams since the start of the present season. ""They hold victories over such outstanding teams as Kansas State and the University of Cincinnati. If the Wolves manage to defeat the Cowpokes, they will take on the winner of the Southwest Conference at Lawrence, Kansas on March 14. In the other game at that time, Kansas State meets Cincinnati. The two winners meet for the regional title. Four regional playoffs will be played: San Francisco, Lawrence, Charlotte, N. C, and Lexington, Ky. The winners in the four regionals will meet in the championship round which will be played March 21 and 22 in Louisville, Ky. In previous trips to the NCAA, Loyola met the University of Notre Dame at Fort Wayne, Ind., and last year Oklahoma State University in Oklahoma City. The Wolves lost both games and on each occasion Coach Jim McCafferty was mentor of the Wolves. The first time Loyola went to the NCAA, McCafferty succeeded the late Tom Haggerty in mid-season after the latter had resigned because of illness. Bill Schweiberger, the Pack's 6-9 center, from Tampa, Fla., will not be eligible for the game with Oklahoma State since he participated in varsity basketball as a freshman. Hank Iba, coach of the Cowpokes, is considered the father of the slow-type, defensive brand of ball which is so popular in the "Oklahoma territory." Marquette Seeks Harding For Vacated Cage Post Milwaukee, is seeking Loyola's dynamic basketball coach, Jim Harding. Jjrrr-_,.... -- I newspaper revealed that Harding had applied for the job recently | vacated by Coach Jack Nagle. Harding, in a campus interview, said that he has been approached by the Marquette athletic officials and had not applied for the job himself. The Marquette student newspaper (at the time) said that more than 30 coaches had applied for the job in writing and more than 20 more had phoned in their applications.Harding came to Loyola this year after a succenf ul coaching career at Marquette Academy in Milwaukee. During his high school coaching stint there he was acclaimed as one of the city's best coaches—an accolade which was instrumental in getting him the job here at Loyola. Here at Loyola, Harding's cage team has compiled the best record in the past several seasons. Through Wednesday the Wolves had a 16-6 record with a game scheduled for last night at Dayton against the Dayton Flyers. The Wolves close their regular season tomorrow night against Eastern Kentucky in Richmond, mond, Ky. After that the Loyolans take on Oklahoma State in the opening round of the NCAA tournament at Stillwater, Okla. Harding is a graduate of the University of lowa where he played both varsity football and basketball. ADMIRING their second place medal won in Mardi Gras rifle match competition, are, left to right: Sergeant Hiram Taylor, coach, and team members Gordon Drozeski, Andrew Pedelahore, Oscar Guerra, Anthony Hocke and Bill Connick. Requirements for competition included firing five rounds each from standing, kneeling, sitting and prone positions, Mississippi State's team brought home first place honors.

Choppin, president of the St. Thomas More Law Club, said, "although the validity of this school has been the subject of great controversy."Chopping said that the first conference would be devoted to discussing natural law, its existence and its relationship to positive law, although members of the panel would represent as many philosophical positions as possible to provide a broad basis for discussion.Members of the panel will include: Professors Robert A. Pascal of LSU, and Ralph Slovenko of Tulane, Professor Brendan F. Brown, and the Rev. Guy J. Lemieux, S.J., both of Loyola.

Four Hit Road To Back Pack By Henry Ather If the Athletic Department wants to bestow a medal for school spirit, then Ramon E. de Arrigunaga, Joe Rodriguez, Malcolm Burns and Francis Jacob should line up single file and collect same. The reason—a mere 1200 mile automobile trip from New Orleans to Dayton and return just to follow the Pack and cheer for the Wolves against the country's number 6 team. The four stalwarts left Loyola Wednesday afternoon for the Flyers' camp and after the game were to leave for home and back to those 8 o'clock classes. It took school spirit—it took fortitude and it took a lot of gas and oil to do it—but where there's a "Wolfpack will" there seems to be a way. To Install New Elevator In Bobet Hall A completely automatic elevator will be in operation in Bobet Hall in about six weeks, according to Stanton Chassignac, head of the maintenance department. It will be key operated at first, serving only faculty members and handicapped students. Later it may be converted for general student use. The entire project will cost $25,000, Chassignac said. The eight to 10 passenger elevator, when completed, will feature a revolutionary type controller, which will eliminate the "fuzzy feeling you get in your stomach due to the sudden stops," he noted. This is made possible through use of a two-speed alternating current motor. The second motor will "kick in" a few feet before the elevator reaches the floor, gliding it to a gentle stop. There are only two of these new controllers in use today; the other one is also in New Orleans, according to Chassignac. The project was begun four weeks ago. Father Mulcrone Gets Math Post The Rev. T. F. Mulcrone, S.J., assistant professor of mathematics, was elected Saturday to the vice-chairmanship of the Louisiana-Mississippi division of the Mathematcs Association of America, which met Friday and Saturday at Loyola.

No one knows when the image of a typical 'young person' as an apathetic, carefree hedonist entered pop culture but we all now recognise this misconception and see it everyday in the press. Despite many people, including many young people, objecting to this stereotype, this undeserved image has enabled opportunists to marginalise the youth demographic. Politicians are often guilty of this, as too sometimes are captains of industry. Both have so egregiously overlooked and ignored the views of such young people. more >

Dear all, i forward the following mail to ltsp and beowulf as I use these concepts and Mosix group seems to be in a very depressed mood. The problem I encounter occurs before Mosix even starts. There is some new kind of stuff with kernel 2.4.xx that does not accept some kinds of fragments. It is more an NFS boot problem. One (quick and dirty) solution could be to allow the kernel to load even with an mtu less than 1500, which I could not do. Thanks in advance Jacques -- Dr. Jacques B.

Terrific T-Names: The Nameberry 9, from Tansy to Thatcher
This week, Appellation Mountain's Abby Sandel points out the large proportion of names in the news that start with the letter 'T'.
Why is it that certain letters have their day in the sun? Even before reality television gave us the Duggar and Kardashian clans, J and K had been having their moment. Lately, H is on the rise, thanks to Hannah and Harper and Henry. Now Huxley, Henley, and Hattie are poised to follow.
Other letters seem to hang in limbo. We haven't heard much from T lately. Classics like Thomas and Timothy hibernate, while James and Henry take center stage. Names that should have caught on remain relatively underused. Tamsin, Tilda, Tennyson, Tenley, Tate, Trixie, Tess – lots of possibilities have never gotten quite as much attention as you might expect.

Thank you to the Riverfest "Go Green" committee for overseeing a very successful 2012 "Riverfest Recycles" program. Festival-goers and volunteers collected over 80,000 aluminum cans in 2012 and granted a wish through the Make-A-Wish Foundation. A very lucky little boy got to see his wish come true to take a trip to Disney World. Thanks to everyone who participated in our program and to the great group of sponsors that helped to underwrite Riverfest Recycles.
Go Green continues to implement lots of new ideas with the goal of achieving even better results! Riverfest partnered with AEP Southwestern Electric Power Company, Regional Recycling & Waste Reduction District, Waste Management, Tenenbaum Recycline Group, (TRG), Entergy and Coca-Cola, not to mention a quarter of a million festival-goers, to recycle at Riverfest and to spread the word about recycling.
The "Riverfest Recycles" Program encourages festival-goers to recycle plastic bottles and aluminum cans which are typically just discarded. Festival-goers can stop by our recycling tent, located on the walkway behind the Museum Center between the Riverfest Amphitheatre and the Clinton Library, and pick up a recycling bag. While enjoying Riverfest, attendees are encouraged to fill their collection bags with at least 20 recyclable items and return it to the Recycling Tent for a chance to win a prize. With each full bag returned to the Recycling Tent, attendees earn a chance to spin the prize wheel. Prizes on the wheel include t-shirts, hats, corndogs, and many more fun prizes including a few premium prizes. In addition to collecting recyclables, all festival goers are asked to make use of the numerous recycling containers located throughout the park. After hours the Riverfest recycling committee and volunteers, along with the Little Rock Parks and Recreation Department, will retrieve cans and plastic bottles from recycling containers, and any cans that may not have made it to the containers.
As part of the 2012 goal to surpass prior recycling efforts, Go Green's target is to recycle enough aluminum cans to grant a wish through the Make-a-Wish Foundation of the Mid-South. In order to achieve this lofty goal, nearly every can will have to be recycled. Everyone is encouraged to stop by the "Riverfest Recycles" tent during the festival to check out the "Can-O-Meter" and see how close we are to reaching this goal!
There are few times in life when there is an opportunity for a true Win-Win-Win situation. At Riverfest 2012, that situation existed. The community wins by experiencing a clean Riverfest, the Earth wins by keeping recyclables out of the landfills, and lastly, a child in need will enjoy a dream come true. Each and every festival-goer will have to pitch in, but just know that your efforts have contributed toward these wins, and granted a child's wish. Riverfest thanks you in advance for your efforts in Recycling!
Without the support of AEP Southwestern Electric Power Company and our other recycling partners, Riverfest, Inc., a 501 (c)(3) non-profit, would not be unable to continue this program and successfully undertake or fund the type of recycling program we have for the past three years. Following are details from some of our past recycling efforts. This year we hope to increase our recycling numbers even more!
- 1st year of the "Riverfest Recycles" program.
- $25,000 grant provided by Regional Recycling & Waste Reduction District allowed Riverfest to purchase t-shirts and other giveaways.
- Coca-Cola Bottling Company provided over 60 new recycling containers to be used on-site.
- Riverfest Recycles Program collected 10 tons of recyclable material.
- $50,000 grant is provided for the 2nd year of the "Riverfest Recycles" Program.
- While continuing the incentive program of giving away t-shirts and other items, Riverfest enhanced and expanded the program by giving away a Smart Car as part of the program. The Smart Car was given away in June of 2010 to Amy Frazier of Jacksonville, Arkansas. She alone recycled 21 bags of materials.
- Coca-Cola Bottling Company continued to support the program by bringing back their interactive display (one of only two displays that travels the country), as well as other corporate sponsors such as TRG Recycling Group and Verizon Wireless.
- Riverfest food vendors participated by displaying signage at their food locations encouraging festival-goers to recycle.
- Recycling tents had to remain open one hour past festival closing hours each night because of the overwhelming response of festival-goers collecting bottles and cans after the concerts concluded;
- Riverfest Recycles Program collected approximately 14 tons of recyclable material.
- The Rivefest Go Green Committee continued to encourage Riverfest patrons to recycle and implemented a "Wheel of Fortune" concept to award prizes to individuals who brought bags of recyclables to the Riverfest Recycles tent;
- AEP Southwestern Electric Power Company signed on as the Presenting Sponsor for the Riverfest Recylces Progam;
- The Clinton Presidential Center joined the growing list of sponsors supporting the Riverfest Recycles program;
- Entergy awarded a grant to Riverfest to help fund the recycling effort;
- Riverfest collected approximately 8 tons of recyclable materials. The lower numbers in 2011 were due to the elimination of glass on-site, which had previously made up a considerable amount of the tonage of recyclables collected.

1850s During his short term as president, Zachary Taylor refurbished the second-floor family quarters, the area where Margaret Taylor, his ill wife, spent her time. Congress provided the standard $14,000 for furnishings and Taylor purchased dressing bureaus, mahogany washstands, wardrobes, and beds for the family. When he died in July 1850, Millard and Abigail Fillmore moved into the house and successfully gained a special appropriation to establish a library in the second-floor oval room. Washington cabinetmaker William Cripps made mahogany bookcases, rosewood desks and other pieces for the new space. Fillmore loved gardening and also purchased a group of Rococo Revival cast iron garden settees. Franklin Pierce arrived at the house in 1853, and received $25,000 for the furniture fund, a larger than normal sum. Architect Thomas U. Walter supervised decorative work throughout the staterooms: new marble mantels, new wallpapers, gilded frames for various mirrors, and decorative fresco paintings on the ceilings. The Pierces also ordered a French porcelain dinner and dessert service with blue and gilt decoration, a large service of cut glassware, and several pieces of walnut and mahogany furniture among other things. Betty C. Monkman, The White House: Its Historic Furnishings and First Families, 111-119.
1860s James Buchanan, our only bachelor president, chose his niece Harriet Lane to assume hostess and decorating duties. With a $20,000 furnishings appropriation, Lane purchased a marble clock, serving ware, walnut furniture, china, lighting fixtures, carpets and a gilt-framed mantel mirror, all from Philadelphia. The Blue Room suite, imported from France by James Monroe, was long out of style and went to auction in 1860. It was replaced by a nineteen-piece, gilded Rococo Revival suite, of which a circular divan was the focal point. When Abraham Lincoln moved into the President's House in 1861 the state floor and private quarters were in a "miserable condition." With the approach of Civil War, Lincoln paid little attention to furniture and decorating. He left the purchases to his wife Mary Todd Lincoln and despite a $20,000 appropriation for furnishings the budget was exceeded. Two supplemental appropriations were needed to pay for a spending spree that included a French porcelain dinner and dessert service, carpets, French wallpapers, draperies, and an ornate, laminated mahogany bedroom suite that included the Lincoln Bed. Successor Andrew Johnson received funds to renovate the now well-worn furnishings and left the arrangements to his daughter, Martha Patterson. By the end of Johnson's tumultuous term in 1869, more than $135,000 had been spent on the repair and renovation of the house. Betty C. Monkman, The White House: Its Historic Furnishings and First Families, 119-137.
1870s War-hero Ulysses S. Grant, elected after a bitter war and the emotional impeachment of Andrew Johnson, spent two terms in the Executive Mansion. First Lady Julia Grant, with an initial $25,000 appropriation, concentrated on refurnishing the family quarters and executive offices at the east end of the second floor. The Grants purchased Renaissance Revival style furniture with heavy crests, rounded pediments and angular scrolls. For the second term Congress appropriated $100,000 for a major renovation project. In 1873-1874, the Grants supervised a major redecoration of the White House in preparation for their daughter Nellie's wedding to Englishman Algernon Sartoris. This makeover, epitomized by the Grant's East Room with its grand gas globe chandeliers became one of the premier interiors of the American Gilded Age (1877-1901). Throughout the staterooms, Herter Brothers, a renowned New York furniture maker, supplied sophisticated furnishings. Rutherford B. Hayes controversial election in 1876 strained his relations with Congress and two years passed before they appropriated any money for furnishings. In the meantime, Hayes and his wife Lucy, both antiquarians, restored pieces of furniture they discovered in the attic and basement and purchased furnishings at auctions with their own money. The main expenditure of their administration was for a unique state dinner and dessert service decorated with American plants and animals purchased in 1879 for $3,120. Betty C. Monkman, The White House: Its Historic Furnishings and First Families, 143-156.
1880s James and Lucretia Garfield moved into the Executive Mansion in 1881. With $30,000 from Congress, Mrs. Garfield made plans to refurbish the Green Room and ordered a set of ebony furniture. However, by the time it arrived President Garfield had been shot by a disgruntled office seeker and then died a few months later. His successor, Chester Arthur, did not occupy the White House until the house was redecorated to suit his tastes. The rooms were cleared of all damaged and unfashionable furniture. Twenty-four wagonloads of furniture and thirty barrels of old china were sent to auction. Arthur commissioned Associated Artists, of which Louis Comfort Tiffany was a partner, to makeover the house. No furniture was commissioned but stained glass, lighting fixtures, mantels, over mantel mirrors and decorative painting using gold and silver leaf in the style of the Aesthetic Movement were designed for the rooms. Grover Cleveland and his young bride Frances Folsom bought a private home in the suburbs of Washington, D.C. to protect their privacy and only lived at the White House during the official social season. The Clevelands had the northwest corner room, their bedroom, repapered and ordered some chairs, a wardrobe, and a ladies writing desk to furnish it. Also, a special plush sofa was ordered for the space under the Palladian west window in the second-floor corridor where Frances Cleveland spent time relaxing and entertaining friends. Betty C. Monkman, The White House: Its Historic Furnishings and First Families, 156-172.
1890s The extended family of Benjamin Harrison stretched the Executive Mansion's available living space to the limit and a number of beds were ordered to accommodate the family. Caroline Harrison was a life-long art student, and her interest in china painting led her to search the White House for old services. She had these repaired and preserved and can be credited with starting the collection of presidential china now displayed in the China Room. She also oversaw the refurbishing of the house after it was wired for electricity in 1891. Grover and Frances Cleveland returned to the Executive Mansion in 1893. As before, they lived much of the time in a separate home for privacy. The Clevelands made few changes except to redecorate the Red Room with brighter red walls and a neo-classical frieze and to furnish the Cross Hall with a set of dark oak furniture. By the mid-1890s more flatware was needed for state dinners, and the first lady selected a high quality pattern of gilded silver with metal being provided by melting down old, miscellaneous White House flatware. Betty C. Monkman, The White House: Its Historic Furnishings and First Families, 172-176.

Chocolate-crunch Torte with Pistachios and Sour CherriesThis is the easiest chocolate recipe ever invented – I first made a more basic version on children's television. Since then it's got much more sophisticated, but the joy of its simplicity and the fact that no cooking is required make it a real winner for busy people. |
Serves 12 This recipe is taken from How to Cook Book Two and The Delia Collection: Chocolate. |
MethodBegin this the day before by soaking the dried cherries and raisins in the rum overnight. When you are ready to make the torte, place the broken-up chocolate and butter in a large heatproof bowl, which should be sitting over a saucepan of barely simmering water, making sure the bowl doesn't touch the water. Then, keeping the heat at its lowest, allow the chocolate to melt – it should take about 6 minutes to become smooth and glossy. Now remove the bowl from the pan, give the chocolate a good stir and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Next, fold in the whipped cream, followed by the soaked fruits in rum, the pistachios and chopped biscuits, and give it all a good mix. Finally, spoon it into the cake tin as evenly as possible, cover with clingfilm and chill for a minimum of 4 hours. To serve, dust the surface with a little cocoa powder, cut the torte into wedges, then serve with crème fraîche, whipped cream or pouring cream. |

Bookbinder's Seafood and Steakhouse
Online Reservations
We chose Bookbinders to treat our son who is at MCV. Getting there was very easy and like all the properties allong the strip, there is a nice parking lot directly accross the street. We all had seafood, but I suspect the steaks are good as well. Oysters, Carpaccio, Snapper soup, swordfish, and a special searded scallops with truffle linguine were all fabulous.
Loved Bookbinders first time I went and have been back several times. Their Petit filet mignon Oscar style is wonderful! However, on this particular visit the restaurant was much too cold inside and this restaurant is not savvy on handling of a fine selection of wines. Three times we ate here, including this visit, and ordered an expensive, older bottle of wine only to have the wait staff try to serve it straight out of the bottle. We asked them to decant it and each time the staff had to hunt down a decanter, clean it out, make us wait until it dries, then serve it just about when our entrees arrive. The wine cost more than our entrees combined so this restaurant should treat the serving of wine with much more respect than this.
We have always enjoyed the Book Binder in Richmond, and were happy to be back there this past Friday evening. Our group of five had three generations of folks, and the experience was enjoyed equally by all. We highly recommend this wonderful restaurant in Richmond for excellent food, service, ambiance and a great dining experience.
My girlfriends and I had a "girl night out" to celebrate a birthday and a baby. It was perfect. The food was excellent, the place elegant, I just wished I was there with my husband instead of my girlfriends. I will definitely be returning.
Enjoyed a fine meal with my wife in celebration of our 20th wedding anniversary. The service was excellent and the food was great! We'll be back for more.
Excellent venue to celebrate a special occasion. And portions were plentiful as well as good.
Good food and nice service. The table was very nicely located and it was a good time all around. Thank you.
There aren't many restaurants that have what I call my favorite meal. But Bookbinders is one that I crave and make a point to get to every few months. Fun to go way downtown, great ambience, and never disappoints. We've had business holiday parties there for over 30 people, private parties for 10 and many romantic dinners for two.
I have dined at Bookbinders many times and have never had less than a stellar performance. The service is subtle but spot on, the staff know the menu and offer splendid options, and my Gin and Tonics, taste like G&Ts. This is s place for one to relax with family and friends, everything will be taken care of. The food is amazing, perfectly cooked and the spices and side dishes all manage to compliment each other. I will return, I love this restaurant Thank you
Carpaccio-rather tasteless.The Caesar salad was a bit to creamy.Crab cake billed as no fillers,etc.Probably was as billed,however it sat on top of a sauce that blurred the taste of the crab cake.Too much sauce for the size of the cake.Couldn't take the sauce off because it was the same color as the cake Rib steak was fine, cooked rare as we asked.However,we said black and blue for temperature.It came out blackened even though the waitress asked us to clarify what we meant by black and blue.Brussel sprouts kept their taste because they were cooked to perfection!The chocolate cake was wonderful. It tasted fresh,chocolaty,and not too sweet.The key lime pie was on a chocolate cracker crust, also good. Liked owner coming to the tables to check.
Decent. Wan't impressed with the beef....ahem; snapper soup. Creamed spinach was awesome. Whipped mashed redskins were standard. Kona filet was good. Good cut of meat. Wasabi Salmon was big and quite good. The tanginess of the sauce got annoying after awhile though. Oysters Rockefeller was standard and well done. Creme brûlée was also standard and well done. Keylime pie with oreo crust was exceptional. Service was average. Had to ask for him to decrumb the table before desert. That should be standard if your going to serve such crusty delicious bread..... Costly dinner for 2...about $110 per piece. Worth it?.....ehh...let's just say the Wife loved it and had a great time. That's all that mattered :-)
My wife and I had our rehearsal dinner at bookbinders 5 years ago and went back for our anniversary. It was wonderful and the food was just as great as it was on our rehearsal dinner night! The crab cake and lobster mac and cheese were amazing!
Lovely ambiance, great service; owner on premises and circulated but was unobtrusive. Waiter was attentive but not 'hovering'. A very nice, calm place where you could actually have a conversation with your spouse!
You cannot miss the crab cake appetizer! Oysters Rockefeller was very good as well. Kona filet was outstanding.
We were visiting our daughter at her college and wanted to take her out for a special meal. We have not been to thr Richmond area before for an extended stay. Although we are sure Richmond has many lovely resauranta we did not want to waste time picking out one that may or may not be great. Bookbinders has a great reputation and it did not disappoint. We all had seafood which was cooked wonderfully, served with style within a beautiful setting. It was quiet enough to enjoy conversation, but busy with other diners. Totally fit the occasion.
My husband and I went to Bookbinders for the first time for our wedding anniversary. We ate on the patio and enjoyed amazing food and stellar service!
Great atmosphere. Great wine list. Staff was very helpful in guiding for wine pairing and explaining portion sizes. Particularly recommend the crab cakes and the seafood.
Bookbinder's is what you would expect from a Fine Dining restaurant around Richmond. Food was prepared excellently, atmosphere was very nice, friendly staff, etc. There are a couple of things they could have went the extra mile on, but nothing major. Overall, great fine dining restaurant. Expect to spend no less than $120 (including tip) as a couple (if you are eating steak) and maybe up to $200 if you drink wine and get extra sides. We kept it simple and drank waters and and spent $104 before tip. Again, I would say it meets expectations. Not dramatically more than that, but certainly no less than what you would expect.
This restaurant was simply exquisite. Everything came together to make an excellent dining experience. I do recommend anyone who is looking for top class dining to make a point to frequent this establishment. From the ease of reservations to the service and food, Bookbinder's is a must.
It was my husband and I first time eating at the Old BookBinder, and we loved it!!! The food was excellente, the hostesses and waitress were phenonmal...We were celebrating our 4th wedding anniversary and well will recommend Old BookBinder to all our family and friends....
I took my wife here for her birthday. I've been in Richmond for over 5 years and had not been to BookBinders yet. I would absolutely recommend anyone going there for a special occasion. It is on the high end and was not the most memorable experience ever; however, the the entire experience was really good. Definitely recommend the lobster Mac & Cheese!!
My wife and I have been going to Bookbinders for 10 years on our anniversary and sitting at the same table every year for this occasion. As an aside, we don't particularly like the rounded booth we sit at but it's a nice tradition. We do also go there throughout the year as well and usually eat at the bar. I made the reservation over a month ago then confirmed the night before our visit that we were at the correct table. They told me yes. We arrive for our dinner only to be told that there was a wedding party in the room where the table was. I'm sure this party didn't materialize in the 17 hour span from when I called until our reservation time. Needless to say a long standing tradition was ruined.
Took our son (a VCU student) here for dinner. Food and service was outstanding. Would recommend it to others.
Celebrated my wife's birthday with our two young children. Staff went out of their way to make it a very special event. Food was outstanding and no special request was denied. I recommend it highly.
The service was amazing & I especially appreciated the very relaxing environment!
The tuna appetizer and crabmeat cocktail were very good. Caesar salad was basic, very little dressing, if any. Steak entrees excellent, cooked as ordered. Did not like the chocolate crust on the key lime pie, but the key lime flavor was very good. Service was excellent. Appreciated that request was filled on reservation about seating preference.
I love Bookbinder's because they always have great food and service!
Everything at the restaurant was great for my birthday. The service and food was awesome.
I really desired a relaxing evening with great food and service and it met all expectations. I really enjoyed my experience and will return. I liked that my water was filled without asking by another server. Great job
Very pleased, wonderful food and excellent service. Highly recommend.
Enjoyed every moment ...every bite....every sip. Totally awesome Crab Cake, great wine and perfect atmosphere. Thanks for taking great care of us.
I wanted a memorable birthday outing for my wife. The food, the service and the setting were all excellent. For me the prices dictate special occasion only.
My friends and I ate here in September and loved it, so we decided to eat here again this week. We tried some different appetizers and entrees this time, and we enjoyed our meal just as much time time as we did last time. The desserts are AWESOME too. We tried the cheesecake, bread pudding and key lime pie. All 3 were excellent!
Great experience and wonderful dinner and service.
The food was fantastic! Highly recommend getting a steak here, they were amazing and cooked perfectly. Service was great too!
On a weekend visit to Richmond we chose Bookbinder's for our Saturday night "date" restaurant. Everything was outstanding. The 8 oz Filet and the Rib Eye Steak were tender, tasty and perfectly cooked. The Baked Potato is gigantic and, as the steaks, perfectly cooked.
We were looking for a good spot to have a department dinner where we could get to know one another and welcome a new director into the fold. The smaller round table was perfect for everyone feeling like they were part of the conversation. The noise level was not deafening so you didn't feel like you were straining to follow the conversation. The servers were attentive but not hovering/distracting and the food arrived timely. Everything was delicious.
This experience was one of the best that I have ever enjoyed. Given the fact that as the former Mayor of Richmond, I have had the opoportunity to dine across the Country. As such, I can attest to the fact that this was the top of the line in dinning pleasure. Management is to be compliment for a wonderful operation. Special kudos to the PROFESSIONAL waiter--an excellent "bridge" to your customers. On a scale of 1-10, I would rate this experience as an ELEVEN!!!!
Excellent meal, great service, a wonderful evening out.
Service was excellent and the food was prepared to perfection. The quality of all that was served was exceptional.
It was very nice, but I ended up cooking a turkey the next day anyway!
Everything about this restaurant is first class. They pay attention to all the details. All the wait personnel are pleasant, attentive, and efficient; the decor is elegant; the presentation is excellent. It is a bit pricey, but worth it.
An excellent choice for special occasions--we dined there for Thanksgiving. The impeccable service reaffirmed our choice of a restaurant offering a "non-buffet" option for the holiday. The food was fantastic and offered excellent choice for all tastes on their fixed price menu. Includion of a "turkey" option was appropriate for the date. All three of us selected different options and everyone was deligthed with their choice.
Our extended family of 9 opted to dine out this year. Though described as 3 courses for $49, there was no chance anyone would be hungry or dissatisfied. A choice of salad or two soups to start (crab bisque or butternut squash; butternut was the winner), choice of 5 entrees (traditional turkey, salmon, rockfish, filet mignon, or crab-stuffed flounder), and combination apple pie & pumpkin flan for dessert. Entrees all outstanding; particularly the turkey and the filet. Kitchen sent out warm sourdough, awesome mashed potatoes green bean casserole (so-so) for the table - seemingly bottomless. Approachable wide-ranging wine list, with nice mid priced options as well as high-end stars. Service was consistently fine, friendly and attentive.
The restaurant rates very high on the list of places we visited on our recent week's visit to Richmond. It was easily the best dining experience we had.
First time diners at Bookbinders. The atmosphere was extremely nice. Our waitresses were prompt, very knowledgable and we recieved the type of service that should be expected in a fine dining establishment. I had the She Crab soup to start, it was good, not great. I chose the Stuffed Flounder for my entree and it was phenomenal. My wife had the Crab Cake and she said it was great. We split the brussel sprouts and they were perfect. We would definetely recommend Bookbinders, an all around great dining experience in a facility established in 1875, WOW!
Bookbinder's is great! Very expensive, but then again you should know that going into dinner, so no real surprise there. The food was amazing, and the portions were huge. My parents came into town to visit for the holidays, and we went here for a nice dinner. The waitress was amazing, and everyone left completely stuffed after an entree and salad/soup. I'm no wine expert, but the list is huge and looks like it would make anyone that appreciates it happy. I would definitely recommend this as being one of the few upscale dining experiences that truly gives you what you pay for in every aspect.
This is the second year we have gone to Bookbinders to celebrate my parent's anniversary--last year was their 50th and they have decided to make it a yearly tradition. The food and service is great.
Food was spectacular and setting was even better. We were treated like royalty. One of my favorite Richmond dining spots.
Steaks were cooked just right and were really good quality. Seafood and sides were also cooked and seasoned perfectly. Truly a spectacular experience, we will be back!!

Survey of Energy Resources Interim Update 2009
Wind Energy update
Like solar energy, the wind energy sector has seen very significant global growth in recent years. By end-2006, installed capacity was some 25% higher than at the end of the previous year; by end-2007 capacity had increased by a further 27% and it is estimated that 2008 saw an increase approaching 30%.
Prior to 2008 Germany led the world in terms of installed capacity, adding about 12% in 2006 and 8% in 2007. Although Spain was ahead of the USA at the end of 2006 and despite growing by some 30% in 2007, by end-2007 the USA had overtaken it, having grown some 45%. By end-2008, having increased its capacity by nearly 50%, the USA took over the world lead.
One country has demonstrated spectacular growth during the past three years: China has more than doubled its wind turbine capacity and now lies in fourth place.
Although other countries do not have as high a total installed capacity, nevertheless they have witnessed considerable growth, very often as a direct result of national renewable energy policies with defined targets.

With the same tech they use for RB singing obviously, with the pitch lines and stuff.
It could have 4-player harmonies, even (because lots of songs on RB need that).
It would be more mainstream than Rock Band so I'd imagine it would have more radio-friendly songs and Fall Out Boy, Ke$ha etc etc.
Mite b cool.

Love these shapes. The size is perfect for adding to cards or Project Life inserts to add some pizzazz. I also love the fact that you can ink/paint them to whatever color you need for the page/card you are working on. ADORABLE!
They are so nice and you can use the box they come in for a miniature shadow box. Love them!
I love using them.

Album art we flip out over, from the Rolling Stones, Lady Gaga, Nirvana and more
They're the visual equivalent of a cool B-side. Or background vocals that lift a chorus into ecstasy. When it comes to album covers, the front typically commands our eyes, but if you flip that jacket or jewel case over, there are some evocative designs waiting to be pored over. Here are some of our all-time favorites.—Matt Wake, Special to Metromix

"Great Location and very good staff"
This was my wife and my second stay at this hotel. The location is great and the staff very friendly and helpful. The breakfast in the morning was always hot and well prepared. The room was clean and comfortable. Only minor concern is the décor and all is becoming dated and could use an updating and face lift. We will stay here again.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com

"Close to everything, yet quiet. Great breakfast!"
This property was conveniently located just off the strip in Branson, away from all the hustle and bustle and much quieter than being on the strip. It was also located in the middle of all the action so if you wanted to go to attractions on the east side, you just turned right. If you wanted to go west, just turn left. The rooms were large with a separate […] sitting area along with the kitchenette. The bathroom was also set up well with the sink and large granite countertop located outside the shower / toilet room. The breakfast was excellent including hot scrambled eggs, potatoes, biscuits and gravy, French toast and other items in addition to the cereals, breads, bagels and muffins. In other words, it was not just a continental breakfast; it was a fully loaded breakfast with plentiful choices! Oh, the bed was very comfortable with a pillow-top mattress.

"Centrally located -- restaurants other sights"

"Needs new mattresses"
Room was clean, very close to attractions. But the bed was ROCK hard, and the mattress on the sleeper sofa was threadbear with springs poking through. Had to request a rollaway bed. Fortunately, they didn't waived the $15 rollaway bed fee. Wouldn't stay there again unless all the beds are replaced. And at the end of the day, isn't sleep why you book […] a room?

"Great hotel!!"
My family has stayed at this hotel every time we go to Branson. We have stayed at other hotels close to the strip but this one is the best. I would highly recommend this hotel. It has a nice indoor pool, hot tub, clean rooms, great full breakfast, and friendly staff!Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com
"Great staff, great hotel"
The hallways could use some sprucing up. One cabinet was missing a latch in the kitchen. Other than that the rooom was clean, the staff was lovely and helpful. The breakfast menu changed here and there which was great. The food was well prepared and tasty. The bananas were over-ripe, but it means this hotel does not waste. The location is great. I will […] stay there in the future. Loved it. The price was right, as well! Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia
"Not bad but a little overpriced"
Stayed in a one bedroom suite. Not bad. Could be a little cleaner in some areas (toilet) but not bad otherwise. Heard quite a bit of walking/stomping upstairs at midnight. I suspect thin ceilings as opposed to noisy neighbors. We were placed in the basement so our 2 year old wouldn't "stomp around and make people call down to the front desk and complain." […] Thanks. Overall not bad but probably overpriced in my opinion. Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia
Autor odpowiedzi: Residence Inn by Marriott Branson Thank you for your response Mark! We always appreciate knowing how our guests stays are, and what we can do to make it even better! I would like to apologize for the noise you experienced while you were here, and for the cleanliness. Usually we pride ourselves on a 100% cleanliness score for our hotel, I am sorry for the oversight. I hope you will stay with us again, and we could offer to put you up on a higher floor, to try to reduce the amount of noise, or you can always feel free to call the front desk with any noise issues, and we will do our best to fix the situation, either by talking with the other guests, or helping you to move to another room if that would be the best option. I sincerely hope we will get the chance to see you again, and get to impress you with our service & amenities, especially with the fact that our suites are about 50% larger than most hotel rooms, and do include a full kitchen, which brings the value up on our rooms significantly! Thank you again for taking the time to post your review. Happy travels!
""Good and Bad""
I think the hotel rooms are in need of an update. The toilet handle needed to be rattled from time to time or it kept running. The shower tub was very slow draining so, by the time you finished showering, you were standing in several inches of water. The free breakfast was good, but there is limited seating. We had to take our breakfast back up to our […] room because there was no place to sit. The pool was down because they were putting in new equipment. I think it was finally up and going the day before we checked out. My son wanted to work out, but the equipment room only had a treadmill and a bike. It is not the best , but far from the worse hotel I have ever stayed at. Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia

"Very good location for visiting Branson!"
This hotel appeared to be rather old. Musty smell in room 012 that the staff placed clothes dryer filters in the vents, that helped a little, but the vents needed cleaning and filters replaced. Musty smell never went away. Staff offered to change rooms but we were only going to be there five days and did not want to move all of our clothes, etc. Everyone […] was friendly, courteous, and willing to help with different items, and for this factor alone, I would recommend this hotel to another person(s).

"Beware of extra charges"
The room was not as clean as it should have been . The carpets were dirty and the room had a odor. After returning home we discovered that the hotal had billed us a $250.00 charge. I called and asked about this charge as I didn't know what it was for and was told we were charged a fee because we had smoked in the room, which we DID NOT do. We cooked […] in the room and the room had a cooking oder but not a cigarrette smoke odor. The management said that we were lying and that they had to clean the carpets and the drapes due to compaints. If the room had been cleaned properly the odor from cooking would have been gone.

"Good location and good for families"
We chose this hotel based off our previous experience at the Marriott time share resort, but much lower in price during the summer months.

But the pluses outweigh the minuses.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com

This place needs some attention.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com
This hotel property was very disappointing. From the heavily chlorinated pool that was so strong that it burned our eyes, to the tiny/overworked solo elevator which reaked of cigarettes and wet dog-like smells, to the pathetic excuse for an evening meal which consisted of little more than cold pretzels to only crumbs of the nacho chips, to the cramped […] living space where trying to open the pull-out couch and an extra roll away was nearly impossible. What a disapointment was this Branson property! There are a lot of nicer, roomier, and cheaper hotels with in just a mile or so of this property. This is the second time we have been disappointed with Marriott Residence Inns in the past year - the second problem site being the one at Chesterfield, MO.

So, what I had in mind for a trend for Threadless was a reimagining of old images in the public domain. There is a wealth of fascinating, obscure and downright awesome images from days long gone that would make sweet tee designs and I think it's something that everyone can do. It doesn't require any special equipment or skill – just the ability to identify the potential in images that exist in the public domain and be creative with them.
Far from ripping-off the original works, I feel it's a way of paying homage to these works and their artists. The way I see it; if people are reusing and getting inspired from my work in 100 years, I would have done something right.
Thank you for reading.
