Am a bit reluctant to share this review, since I really would like to keep it my own little secret. But I can't - other people also deserve to find it.

Hetalkumar Patel arrived at Belleville West High School two-and-a-half hours early before his naturalization ceremony.
Patel wasn't familiar with the area and didn't want to risk being late for such an important event.
Students in attendance at the ceremony may not have understood Patel's excitement before Friday, but after listening to 97 new citizens from 40 countries, share their stories, senior Abby Dompke understood.
"I wanted to cry for them because they were all so happy," Dompke said.
The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Illinois has several naturalization ceremonies each year at schools throughout the district to provide students the opportunity to witness the naturalization process.
Some civics, U.S. history and political science classes at Belleville West incorporated the ceremony into their naturalization and immigration lesson plans. Social studies Chair Brandon Woodrome spoke to his students about their duties and the privilege they enjoy as natural-born American citizens.
"The naturalized citizens have to go though a process of proving they will be productive citizens," Woodrome said.
District Judge Laura Grandy, who presided during the ceremony, set the tone for the event when she spoke of the need for everyone to give back to the country. Grandy said the most important part of the Declaration of Independence is the last paragraph, which states that those who signed the document were pledging their lives, fortunes and sacred honor.
"That's the cost of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness," Grandy said.
Three Belleville West students were presented "last paragraph" awards for giving back to the community. "By giving back the way you have, you have picked up the torch of the last paragraph," Grandy said.
The last paragraph award winners were Bryant Powell, Jenny Stock and Adam Hubbs.
Powell, who lived in 12 foster homes before being adopted by this 13th foster family, organized a bike ride in September to help foster children. Proceeds from the ride were used to buy 150 copies of "Maybe Days," a book for children in foster care.
Stock, a leukemia survivor, helps raise money for cancer research and prevention by organizing a Relay for Life team each year.
Hubbs, who has MonoMAC disease, raised $25,000 for the Tim Tebow Foundation with a trivia night and auction in September.
During the ceremony, each of the new citizens was given a chance to share their story. Ahmed Tariq, from Pakistan told of how he began working at a fast food restaurant when he arrived in the United States 25 years ago and is now an emergency room physician.
"You have all of this opportunity, don't waste your time," Tariq said. "Be good to your country."
In Brandon Hentze's classroom after the ceremony, students discussed what their thoughts on the event. Junior Allison Buck enjoyed the personal stories of the new citizens. "It was exciting to hear them talk about things we take for granted," Buck said.
Vladimir Kuklaehenko, an exchange student from Ukraine, said the stories also had a negative side. "It's sad that they left their countries," Kuklaehenko said.
Fellow exchange student Vladislav Ciuperca, of Moldova, saw the American dream in the speeches.
"Moldova is not a hopeful place," Ciuperca said. "Here you start with zero and you gain little by little. In the end, maybe it's not much, but it's something."
The American dream was on Temitope Adenekan's mind when she was given the chance to tell her story during the ceremony. Adenekan, from Nigeria, had a simple message for the students in attendance.
"Appreciate what America gives you, take it to your heart," Adenekan said.

The filibuster is an affront to the most basic principles of democracy, and California's senators should take the lead in getting rid of the tactic.
It's been a maddening year for California liberals. In the 2008 election, Barack Obama carried the state by a stunning 24 points. He took office with a distinctly progressive agenda and with heavy Democratic majorities in both houses of Congress. A moment of liberal breakthrough -- another 1935 or 1965 -- seemed at hand. And then . . . nothing happened.

Meet the Monkeys
Every day – All Day
Go in with the monkeys and observe them in their natural habitat.
The enclosure covers an area of 1500m² and houses a breeding group of black-capped squirrel monkeys in a habitat designed to recreate the Bolivian rainforests as closely as possible in the centre of London.
The walk-through is open to the skies of the capital with no boundaries between the animals and our visitors.
This urban eco-safari has been designed so that it will develop and mimic the forests of Bolivia, the plants have specifically been chosen for their scent and fruits that will provide enrichment to the animals.
It also provides inspiration for adults and children to find their inner monkey in a specially designed 'play area' which highlights some of the tools and movements our monkeys use to navigate their environment.
We have also designed a tree trunk hide complete with telescopes to allow visitors to feel like they are on a real safari in the centre of London.
Monkey facts
- Black capped or Bolivian squirrel monkeys live in multi-male, multi-female groups and are considered to be the most active, social and vocal of all the squirrel monkeys
- Unique to this species is their 'girren' call
- Our squirrel monkeys are part of the European Endangered Species Programme

WapSnap: Snapshots and SugarCRM Tools
Since writing An Introduction to WapSnap the ALT-Invest team has made good progress in the current prototype. Once a few more areas get solidified and the application is installable it will be moving to the Alpha phase and made available to developers interested in providing thoughts and feature requests.
For this installment I wanted to highlight two sections of the product. The first being the snapshot options and the second being the built in SugarCRM tools area.
Snapshot Options
The image below is a row from the Instances section of the product that shows what application instances have been added to WapSnap. The first three columns from left to right are Instance Name, Instance File Path, and Instance Database. These column show the data that is used by WapSnap in order to know where to pull data from when executing a snapshot.
The 5 images are where the functionality of WapSnap starts. In the application you can hover above any button and get a bubble with a description. The buttons from left to right are Snapshot files and database, Snapshot Database, Snapshot Files, List Instances, and Delete. By browsing to list instances you can select the instances and start the comparison.
Snapshoting the filesystem will make a full backup of the files and hash them for later comparison. Taking a snapshot of the database provides a table by table backup of the database along with table hashes for comparison. The table by table breakdown will allow WapSnap to quickly detect changes in and compare single tables including there structure and or the data within.
SugarCRM Tools
One new section that was very recently added was the tools section. Most developers that work with specific software packages often end up writing tools and scripts that are used daily to speed up development, troubleshooting, or other tasks. In the future we would like to give them the ability to add in their own tools but for now the WapSnap team will be providing them. The first tool is the SugarCRM SOAP Browser.
With the WSDL browser you can quickly connect to a SugarCRM instance and get the modules available for integration via SOAP. Once you click Get WSDL you will be provided the list of modules. When a module is clicked you are provided the available fields for that module. We have found that the WSDL browser makes it easier to identify available sections in SugarCRM to integrate with and we hope that you discover the same.
We plan on adding more tools as we find things that are helpful to other developers. So please comment and let us know what features or tools can help streamline your efforts.

Do you think it is important for the city to have a pet licensing program?
September 29, 2010
Tiffany Bohm ( in Shawnee) says...
If there are services that have to be cut, I think this is a good place to start as it will likely have a smaller impact on the population at large.
Bob Dyche ( in Shawnee) says...
No. I think this is a waste of our tax dollars when so many people don't license their animals to begin with.
Robin Frazee ( in Olathe) says...
I think that pet licensing is a service we could do without.

3 arrested in Mexico City bar kidnapping case
Missing youths' bodies found in a shallow grave
Mexican authorities say they've arrested three additional suspects connected to the kidnapping of 13 youths from a bar in the country's capital.
Federal prosecutors told reporters that Jonathan Robles, Pedro Francisco Paz Lopez and Fernando Fernandez Sanchez are suspected in connection with the kidnapping and killing of the youths.
The mysterious mass kidnapping from the Heaven after-hours bar in May drew international attention after furious family members protested, claiming authorities weren't taking the case seriously.
The allegations have sparked concerns about whether violence has surged into Mexico City, where residents largely have been spared from drug war casualties seen in other parts of the country.
Last month authorities said they'd found the missing youths' bodies in a shallow grave near Mexico City.
Mexico City Prosecutor Rodolfo Rios Garza said last month that the motive for the killing was revenge for a slaying that occurred in another bar in the capital.
At least seven other suspects have been arrested in the case.
Victims' family members have said they don't trust Mexican authorities and have called for an independent international investigation of the case.

Hey guys, for starters, I'm 16
6'1 175lbs
I've surfed a becker 9'0 down at san onofre for quite some time but am not about to take that big guy to Salt Creek where I like to go. I've been doing watersport type stuff all my life.. Longboarding, bodyboarding, diving. I'm good in the water and very athletic. I've been looking for a shorter type board that will be harder for me to get back into but will allow me to further my abilities once I get better. If any of you surf salt creek or are familiar with the types of waves and wave height I'll be dealing with coupled with my water and surf experience and are nice enough to suggest a board for me so I can fit it in my dang car and also get back into surfing a little more I'd love to hear it!
*I'll be surfing it 3 times a week minimum for the next 12 months

Steeped in early 80s Gothic, death rock and post-punk conventions, Alaric's self-titled debut is the type of album that features such an expert execution of a specific sound that it warrants the attention of anyone interested in bands who just "get shit done right." You can hear the hard work being done here, as Alaric's execution is owed in part to their determination to grindingly and unapologetically enforce their sound and push compositions forward one hard-earned yard at a time.
Though bearing a heavy debt to the early work of Ur post-punkers Killing Joke, Alaric is at its best when it conjures the melodic sensibilities of a whole host of bands who popped up in the wake of the initial punk explosion. "Alone" -- among the best songs on the album -- sprinkles deconstructed minor chords over a concrete foundation composed of a rumbling bassline and tribal drumming; think Christian Death, Joy Division and Amebix coming together to solve the key question that drove each band's early work. This means that what Alaric does admirably well is compose dark and doggedly morose compositions where the key function of any melodic interjection is to be swept away by the next rush of dark clouds.
If Alaric's dark / light sensibilities are at constant odds throughout this long-player, than it should also be noted that vocalist Shane Baker deals static, unchecked consternation. Baker barks a steady stream of breathless street-corner invective that never really modulates in tone or intensity, but does well enough to ride the compositional ebbs and flows.
More important than the contribution of individual players, though, is Alaric's collective dedication to each track's momentum. Disdainful of any sort of reflective indulgence, bassist / songwriter Rick Jacobus fulfills his sonic mandate to keep the wheels rolling. These songs may feel like death marches through dark urban corners ("Laughter of the Crows"), but damn it, at least they're going somewhere. Alternately, Alaric's sound could be seen as a metaphor for the unabated momentum of decay.
There's probably only two reasonable ways of enjoying Alaric's debut. Punk savants with a soft spot for the short-lived but creatively fertile era of post-punk / goth / death rock that saw bands expanding the melodic potential of the genre will get some kicks out of a superficial listen. But if you've got a little more time on your hands, this is the kind of album you'll start eventually feeling in your muscle fibers. Its force rests not in apparent speed or power, but in its deadly serious promise that Alaric is not going to stop pushing the boulder forward. Ever. So either strap up for the slog, or avert your eyes as that death march rolls on.

Hip Hop artiste, Five Steez, is scheduled to release his ground-breaking debut album "War for Peace" via www.fivesteez.com on Tuesday, August 21, 2012. "This is real music to help people in the struggle find peace," he says. "It is new millennium boom-bap Hip Hop with soulful production, heavily themed with a lot of commentary, storytelling, introspection and raw lyricism on display."
The release of "War for Peace" will mark the completion of a journey that took Five Steez over 3 years as he prepared the album as an independent artiste. Over time, he released a variety of singles such as "Yard Nigga Rap" and "Rebel Music", which were put together for a free album sampler, which was released on February 17, 2012. Prior to the sampler, Five Steez released online mixtapes, including the 'Momentum' series with New York radio icon, DJ Ready Cee.
After appearing on Hip Hop tastemaker websites such as OkayPlayer, KevinNottingham.com and many others, he has made a name for himself amongst underground Hip Hop fans worldwide. Despite the fact that the genre goes largely unrecognized in Jamaica, Five Steez has defied the odds and appeared in leading Reggae magazines, Backayard and the German-published Riddim. Writers and critics alike have hailed his lyrical prowess, depth and honesty as well as his unwavering determination in pursuit of a genre that does not fit the Jamaican stereotype.
Both digital and physical copies of "War for Peace" will be sold through www.fivesteez.com while MP3 downloads will also be available on iTunes, Amazon and other online music outlets.
Make sure to follow him on Twitter @fivesteez

We couldnt agree more. Our Angels Share is a barrel aged burgundy colored ale infused with copious amounts of dark caramel malt to emphasize the vanilla and oak flavors found in freshly emptied brandy barrels. Each batch spends no less than 6 months aging in the oak. The beer is available in 750 ml bottles and on draft at inspired locations. 2010 ABV: 11.5% 375ml Bottling stamp on neck says 2010 but was released in Jan 2011. It is called the 2011 Angels Share Brandy. 2009 ABV: 11.5%, 375 mL 2008 ABV: 12.5%, gold lettering, 750ml and 375ml, with 2008 on label 2007 ABV: 11.5%, gold lettering, 750ml only 2006 ABV: 10.5%, black lettering, 750ml only

Online gambling can be one of the most satisfying gaming experiences you've ever encountered. Online gambling lets you choose the time and place to play without leaving your home. Yet, this convenience comes with some risk. The Internet encompasses legitimate and reputable online gaming and casinos as well as those that are fraudulent and unsavory.
Look Before You Leap
Wise players use caution and research before depositing money, downloading software, or playing casino games at an unfamiliar website. There are several portal websites that review, rank, and evaluate online casinos. Reputable casinos like Betfair Casino strive to get good reviews.
Use Free Play Before You Pay to Play
One of the advantages of online UK casinos is that most offer gamblers the ability to play for free. Playing for free gives new players a chance to experience a particular game or machine before playing the game for money.
Just as traditional casinos offer prospective gamblers incentives to play, such as drinks, dinner credits, etc., online casinos offer prospective gamblers bonuses. Some examples of online bonuses are listed below:
- Welcome bonuses
- Deposit bonuses
- Game specific bonuses
Bonuses increase the fun of the gambling experiences, but qualifying for those bonuses means that you must read and understand the fine print.
Payouts and Deposits
Gambling is money—winning it, and losing it. Online gamblers should know and understand all the options available to deposit funds into their casino account, as well as the options for receiving their payouts. The most reputable casinos will have a variety of ways for you to deposit and withdraw money from your account. Before you make a deposit, read the fine print and ask questions. Don't do business with a casino that does not have live customer support.

This page contains a list of tools and services that we use on a regular basis. Most of these tools have been created by our members and participating GSoc students, but some are also external and not affiliated with the Honeynet Project. We hope you find the below link collection useful. If you see that a specific tool is not listed, but should, feel free to email firstname.lastname@example.com.
APKinspector is a static analysis platform for android applications. Think of it as IDAPro for android applications. The video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X538N-x3UUY nicely illustrates APKInspector's capabilities. APKInspector was developed by Cong Zhen as part of GSoc 2011. You can try it out by downloading Android Reverse Engineering virtual machine, which bundels APKinspector as well as additional android malware analysis tools.
This is a behavioral analysis tool of applications for the Win32 operating system family. Capture BAT is able to monitor the state of a system during the execution of applications and processing of documents, which provides an analyst with insights on how the software operates even if no source code is available. Capture BAT monitors state changes on a low kernel level and can easily be used across various Win32 operating system versions and configurations. CaptureBAT is developed and maintained by Christian Seifert of the NZ Chapter.
Capture-HPC is a high-interaction client honeypot framework. Capture-HPC identifies malicious servers by interacting with potentially malicious servers using a dedicated virtual machine and observing its system for unauthorized state changes. Developed by Christian Seifert and Ramon Steenson of the New Zealand Chapter.
CC2ASN is an online tool that allows one to lookup ASN and IP address ranges for a specific country.
Malware is the raw-material associated with many cybercrime-related activities. Cuckoo is a lightweight solution that performs automated dynamic analysis of provided Windows binaries. It is able to return comprehensive reports on key API calls and network activity.
Cuckoobox was originally developed as part of GSoc 2010 by Claudio Guarnieri and has been greatly enhanced in subsequent GSocs under Claudio's leadership.
An online version of cuckoobox is available at http://malwr.com/.
Current features are:
Cuckoo is available from http://www.cuckoosandbox.org.
Dionaea is a low-interaction honeypot that captures attack payloads and malware. Dionaea is meant to be a nepenthes successor, embedding python as scripting language, using libemu to detect shellcodes, supporting ipv6 and tls.
A VoIP module has been developed as part of GSoc 2011 by PhiBo and can be downloaded from the Dionaea web site.
Droidbox is a dynamic analysis platform for android applications. Droidbox was developed by Patrik Lantz as part of GSoc 2011. You can try it out by downloading Android Reverse Engineering virtual machine, which bundels droidbox as well as additional android malware analysis tools.
Web sites are hacked all the time. Web application, database, and cross-site scripting vulnerabilities expose a large attack surface that can be exploited to, among others, deface the web site, send spam, convert web site into bots, and serve drive-by-download attacks. Glastopf is a low-interaction honeypot that emulates a vulnerable web server hosting many web pages and web applications with thousands of vulnerabilities. Glastopf is easy to setup and once indexed by search engines, attacks will pour in by the thousands daily. Glastopf has been developed as part of the 2009 Google of Summer Code by student Lukas Rist (and mentored by Thorsten Holz of the German Honeynet Project Chapter). It can be downloaded from the Glastopf trac site at dev.glastopf.org. More information on Glastopf can be found on the project site at http://glastopf.org/.
Google Hack Honeypot is the reaction to a new type of malicious web traffic: search engine hackers. It is designed to provide reconnaissance against attackers that use search engines as a hacking tool. Developed by Ryan McGeehan & Brian Engert of the Chicago Chapter.
Hflow2 is a data coalesing tool for honeynet/network analysis. It allows to coalesce data from snort, p0f, sebekd into a unified cross related data structure stored in a relational database.
There is a paper with a more detailed description can be found http://www.cs.indiana.edu/~cviecco/papers/hflow2.pdf.
This tool transforms arbitrary PHP applications into web-based high-interaction Honeypots. Apart from the possibility to create high-interaction honeypots, HIHAT furthermore comprises a graphical user interface which supports the process of monitoring the honeypot, analysing the acquired data. Last, it generates an IP-based geographical mapping of the attack sources and generates extensive statistics. HIHAT is developed and maintained by Michael Mueter of the Giraffe Chapter.
HoneyBow is a high-interaction malware collection toolkit and can be integrated with nepenthes and the mwcollect Alliance's GOTEK architecture. Developed and maintained by the Chinese Chapter.
HoneyC is a low interaction client honeypot framework that allows to find malicious servers on a network. Instead of using a fully functional operating system and client to perform this task, HoneyC uses emulated clients that are able to solicit as much of a response from a server that is necessary for analysis of malicious content. Developed by Christian Seifert of the New Zealand Chapter.
This is a low-interaction honeypot used for capturing attacker activity, very flexible. Developed and maintained by Niels Provos of the Global Chapter.
Honeymole: This is used for honeypot farms. You deploy multiple sensors that redirect traffic to a centralized collection of honeypots. Developed and maintained by the Portuguese Chapter.
Sinkholing is one technique that allows security researchers/responders the ability to monitor botnets, as well as proactively deny access to the bots from the botnet herders. Up until the release of HoneySink, all the sinkhole deployments out there have been point solutions with varying degrees of sophistication. All of them are inside jobs, from sinkhole setups that are consisting of DNS plus Apache, to full-blown setups like what Shadowserver employs.
HoneySink was developed by Adam as part of GSoc 2011.
Honeysnap. Primary tool used for extracting and analyzing data from pcap files, including IRC communications. Developed and maintained by Arthur Clune of the UK Chapter.
For more information/questions, please join the mailing list (details on the project home page)
Honeystick: This is a bootable Honeynet from a USB device. It includes both the Honeywall and honeypots from a single, portable device. Developed and maintained by the UK Honeynet Project.
This is a tool for observing novel attacks against network services by starting dymanic servers. It performs some basic data analysis and downloads malware automatically. Developed by Tillmann Werner of the Giraffe Chapter.
Honeywall CDROM is our primary high-interaction tool for capturing, controling and analyzing attacks. It creates an architecture that allows you to deploy both low-interaction and high-interaction honeypots, but is designed primarily for high-interaction.
For more information, please see the project TRAC page
Kippo is a medium interaction SSH honeypot designed to log brute force attacks and, most importantly, the entire shell interaction performed by the attacker.
Libemu is a small library written in C offering basic x86 emulation and shellcode detection. Libemu turns shellcode instructions into function calls the shellcode performs, so an analyst can quickly discern the actions of the shellcode and answer questions whether the shellcode is downloading a program or executing a process. It is the de-facto standard when it comes to analyzing shellcode.
Nebula is a network intrusion signature generator. It can help securing a network by automatically deriving and installing filter rules from attack traces. In a common setup, nebula runs as a daemon and receives attacks from honeypots. Signatures are currently published in Snort format.
Nepenthes is a versatile tool to collect malware. It acts passively by emulating known vulnerabilities and downloading malware trying to exploit these vulnerabilities.
Pehunter is a snort dynamic preprocessor that grabs Windows executables off the network. It is intended to sit inline in front of high-interactive honeypots. Developed and maintained by Tillmann Werner of the Giraffe Chapter.
PhoneyC is a virtual client honeypot, meaning it is not a real application but rather an emulated client. By using dynamic analysis, PhoneyC is able to remove the obfuscation from many malicious pages. Furthermore, PhoneyC emulates specific vulnerabilities to pinpoint the attack vector. PhoneyC is a modular framework that enables the study of malicious HTTP pages and understands modern vulnerabilities and attacker techniques.
Picviz is a parallel coordinates[1] plotter which enables easy scripting from various input (tcpdump, syslog, iptables logs, apache logs, etc..) to visualize your data and discover interesting results quickly. This way, you can find in million of events malicious things you were not thinking about and that no regex based program would find for you.
Picviz was greatly enhanced as part of GSoc 2009.
[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_coordinates
For the last few years, while low-interaction (LI) honeypot systems like Nepenthes and PHoneyC are getting more and more powerful, the progress of high-interaction (HI) honeypot technology has been somewhat slower. This is especially true for Sebek, the de-facto HI honeypot monitoring tool. Qebek is a QEMU based HI honeypot monitoring tool which aims at improving the invisibility of monitoring the attackers' activities in HI honeypots.
Qebek was developed by Chengyu Song during GSoc 2010.
Sebek is kernel module installed on high-interaction honeypots for the purpose of extensive data collection. It allows administrators to collect activities such as keystrokes on the system, even in encrypted environments. Designed primarily for Win32 and Linux systems.
Tracker facilitates the identification of abnormal DNS activity. It will find domains that are resolving to a large number of IP's in a short period of time then continue to track those hostname->IP mappings untill either the hostname nolonger responds or the user decides to stop tracking that hostname. Really efficient at finding fast-flux domains and other dodgy A-Record rotations. Tracker is a tool developed by the Honeynet Project Australian Chapter.
Trigona is a VirtualBox powered honey-client that was designed for high throughput with low False Positive and low False Negative rates.
It is essentially taking the best of High interaction and Low interaction honey-clients and cobbling them together with a couple of Perl scripts.
WebViz is a GL visualization project implemented by Oguz as part of GSoc 2011. It allows to easily visualize attack data on a world globe. A demonstration can be found at http://webviz.comu.edu.tr/doc/.
As part of GSoc 2011, Jakub Zawadzki developed a variety of wirkeshark extensions:

Online Reservations
Ate in the jazz bistro room. Music was just right for dining. Food and service perfect.
My wife and I had a fabulous meal here on Friday evening. We made reservations in the main dining room and were treated to excellent service and superb food. Everything was as you would expect from a five star place.
In 4 years or so, Arnaud's will celebrate a century of service to New Orleans and visitors from around the world. Like the Big Easy, it's had its ups and downs. Now is up. Having sampled it annually since the mid-70s, I think the food is at a new peak. The old-line favorites like trout almandine and steak just burst with fresh flavor. Muschroom Veronique are creative and unique. Traditional desserts - flamed or not - are always mouth-watering. The flaming Cafe Brulot that Jean Lafitte inveted here never fails to impress. Service is formally classy but with a relaxed delivery. A far cry from the downtimes in the early 90s when there were no signature Potatores Souffle because they ran out of potatoes. Go again. And Katrina? Who dat?
Great atmosphere in the Jazz Bistro. Bananas foster was excellent. Attentive service.
Very warmth and friendlyness service We have a menu to remember this very good restaurant with a great bar ambience ( cigar one with beautiful Churchill sculpture)
Don't expect strange food broken down into elemental parts. This is old fashioned Fine Dining by definition. Requires jacket for men and allows women the opportunity to 'dress up' provides another level to the experience. Food was impeccable and prepared perfectly. Unfortunately one or two ingredient had to be substituted (one fish for another) but the substitute was best quality and cooked just right...did not detract from the meal. Very accomodating in that several of our dining companions requested an unusual item and they were very accomodating and did not even blink an eye. Wonderful experience and one of my top two or three 'go to' places in New Orleans.
We enjoyed our sunday brunch. Loved the live jazz music and food taste great.
Delicious fish but the preparation seemed to require a stick of butter. Profiterole was just ok.
Everything from service to food was and OUTSTANDING PLUS+++. Enjoyed and will return again and again!!
We love the Sunday brunch at Arnaud's. We go every time we're in New Orleans, where I grew up. Kudos to the entire operation!!
Sunday Brunch is extremely festive with a very entertaining strolling jazz trio. Classic French Quarter atmosphere/ambiance, light streaming through cut glass windows; beautiful. Wide variety of egg dishes, seafood, chicken, steak; something for everyone. Appetizers are numerous and also delicious, their version of shrimp remoulade (Shrimp Arnaud) may be the best in town.
What an absolutely fantastic experience! The restaurant was beautiful, classic place. Everything we ordered was wonderful and unique.The service was outstanding and it was a perfect way to end a trip celebrating our 25th!
Hadn't been here in 30 years...as I remembered it...good food, good service...love the ambience...enjoyed the experience. Would return . I especially like the turtle soup.
This was the first time in NO and eating at Arnaud's, which was a recommendation from friends who had been there. Everything was excellent. The atmosphere was relaxing, but still lively. The service was wonderful. The food was outstanding. Not being from the South, many of the items on the menu were new to us. Everything the wait staff suggested was spot on! We were saddened that the potatoes were not available the night we were dining. Will definitely return to this restaurant on our next visit, especially to try their famous potatoes!
Food, service and drinks were great, Entertainment was terrific and very enjoyable. Pricey but worth it for a great night out.
We loved everything about our Jazz Brunch at Arnauds.
What a great time to spend for a special event. This is a must for all.
Loved their jazz brunch. Service outstanding, as well as food and ambience. Jazz trip was fun. Arnauds lived up to its reputation.
We went with a friend who comes to NOLA a lot. This is an off the path gem! Loved the jazz brunch!! Fabulous food! Awesome atmosphere! We will be back every time we come!
I made reservations for dinner and everything was what I expected. We ordered a dozen oysters on a half shell, I ordered an Arnaud salad, escargo, filet minon and a side of asparagus with hollandaise sauce. For dessert I had the caramel custard. Food was excellent and the filet was cooked rare perfectly. The wine was good. The service was awesome. The live music was a great addition to dinner. I enjoyed all of it.
This was our first visit to Arnauds in many years. The Sunday jazz brunch was fantastic from start to finish. We had excellent, attentive service. Bloody marys were just right. Shrimp arnaud and gumbo for starters, both delicious. The salad with beets, nuts, and their special dressing was also a highlight. For entrees I had the red bean and cheese omelette--one of the best I've ever eaten! The crab cakes were also cooked perfectly. Ended with the bananas foster--one of the truest New Orleans classics--and this did not disappoint. The extra creamy ice cream they use puts this over the top--as decadent as a dessert can be! This place is definitely a must-go-to for brunch! We will most definitely go back sooner than later.
We were in town visiting from virginia. Attentive service though we did feel a little rushed. Shrimp appetizer was good and their house salad was just the right size. I had the trout meunière which was very good and my wife had crab cakes that had too much filler and not enough lump crab. Creme brûlée was cold. This is obviously a classic NOLA restaurant and the food was good but we had much better meals on our visit.
revisited after many years and it more than met my very high expectation. an amazing smoker's bar
We go here whenever we visit New Orleans. It stays true to it's values of impeccable service and excellent Creole cuisine.
I had filet, which was cooked to perfection and covered in Bernaise sauce. My wife had duck with a blueberry sauce. Both dishes were amazing. The service was excellent, not overbearing. Would return in a heartbeat next time I am in New Orleans
Classic gem from a bygone era. Superb service. Prices reasonable with minor exceptions.
The making of reservations on-line was an easy process. The menu and wine list was varied and provided opportunities to try something new. The food was cooked perfectly and beautifully presented by a very attentive staff. All in all, I couldn't have wished for anything more. We even enjoyed the story (apocryphal ?) about the three paintings on the dining room wall.
The food was excellent. The atmosphere was very enjoyable. The service was great. However for the signature appetizer dish of Shrimp arnaud it was not enough. The app was delicious however, it only had 4 tiny shrimp for mine and my guest. I remember when the app portion included large sized shrimp with more that 4 on the plate. I think that $9.95 for an app that included only 4 little shrimp is not acceptable. Otherwise the meal was great!
You can have them every where but not as at Arnaud. It was the most smashing brunch ever...with verry good jazz
Classic old guard New Orleans institution. I thought it might be coasting on its past reputation and frankly expected an adequate meal and experience -but was surprised by great food,service,and atmosphere(a bit dated as expected but enjoyable). No coasting here, the menu had nice variety of choices and the kitchen delivered exceptional food. Gracious service. The prices were in line with other restaurants in this category and thus a good value
I love this restaurant I've been here several times. I am actually not a foodie but I have been to many find restaurants all over the world. This restaurant is one of my all-time favorites I started thinking about it three weeks before I made my trip. I have sent many friends to this restaurant and no one has been disappointed. It was possible to give this restaurant 12 stars out of five I would of all the restaurants I have ever eaten in this is probably in my top five. Great food great wines great cocktails. What more could somebody want.
Wow, first time there and extremely enjoyed the oyster platter! the crawfish in my entrée were divine! good value for what we ordered.
Which is why you go to Arnaud's: because the same outstanding staff and terrific food is ALWAYS waiting on you, regardless of day or time. Classic NOLA eatery that never skips a beat. When your turtle soup is the best on the planet, you DON'T tweak it when roasted pumpkin seeds become the latest rage. When the French 75 was invented in your bar, you DON'T add cucumber vodka to it just because the hot new spots have a cucumber cocktail. Three piece wandering jazz combo is a nice touch; they took requests with aplomb and were a nice soundtrack for our 10:00p,m dinner.
Very enjoyable dinner. The Crab Karen was unique. Excellent service.
Great ambience in the jazz room and fantastic service. Get the escargots en croutes and the amazing coffee for 2, en flambé. A dining experience not be forgotten!
wonderful food and atmosphere. Had a 4 year old and a 1 year old with us - staff could not have been more gracious and accommodating. A highlight of our trip for all of us
We enjoyed our Sunday jazz brunch at Arnaud's. The staff was very attentive, the food was wonderful and the musicians were entertaining. Loved the bananas foster and cafe brulot!
Arnaud's is one of the old New Orleans establishments. It lived up to its reputation for our Sunday jazz brunch. Food was wonderful, great service, three piece jazz band delightful. I suggest dressing up, we wore hats which everyone loved. Tasteful old world style, elegant ambiance, dramatic chandeliers. It was my niece's 16th birthday, so a memorable experience. We sat in the French 75 bar and had a drink before lunch. Afterwards we walked upstairs to stroll around the old Mardi Gras Museum. Really an excellent value for Sunday brunch, but be ready to open your wallet for drinks. Enjoy!
The service was good but wait staff were a little too aggressive. They interrupted our meal toooooo many times. We were a little disappointed as we were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. The food was excellent,
Best Restaurant in NOLA !!! It's just located in a crazy area (Bourborn)
I had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day Dinner at Arnaud's...and ate some of the best food during my stay in New Orleans. I was surprised because in the past, when I have gone out for my Thanksgiving meal, the menu and the food have been uninspired and mediocre. Not this time. We added to the fixed menu with a delicious crab dip, enjoyed the best shrimp dish I ate during my trip, and found my turkey with cornbread stuffing wonderful. The dining room was filled with guests but not too noisy or cramped. As good as my food was, the service was equal. The gentlemen that took care of me were helpful and attentive. I will return.
My wife and I decided to escape our family obligations and have a romantic Thanksgiving in New Orleans. Arnaud"s offered a special menu. The food and service were great. I would do it again!
in the Crescent City. The food was absolutely outstanding. Wonderful cocktails, lovely setting, and first rate service made Arnaud's one of the culinary high points of our trip. Dining there on Thanksgiving was a special treat for my wife and I. I certainly intend to return.
We had always heard of, but never been to Arnaud's. The service was warm and professional at the same time. The food was delicious creole--traditional and made with the freshest of ingredients. The room was beautiful and comfortable. We had a wonderful time and would happily return.
We went for Jazz Brunch. It is a 4 course meal. Plenty of food. Everything was delicious. Bloody Mary's hit the spot. The jazz band that plays around the tables is a nice touch. Great brunch option if you're staying in the French quarter or a perfect starting place for your Sunday Funday in the quarter. Cheers!
New Orleans style food and ambience with consistently outstanding food and service and food unique to this city. Always a wonderful experience.
I never write reviews but had to because it was a great experience! I really enjoyed the waiter, he steered us in the right direction on appetizers, entrees, and dessert. I go many times a year to New Orleans and this is easily the Top 3 restaurants in New Orleans! Very good job
This is such a high class restaurant. Food and service are impeccable. Always come here during a visit to New Orleans.
We had our usual outstanding meal in the Arnaud's Jazz Bistro in Dec 2013. The food was wonderful, the service extremely attentive, but not intrusive, and the Jazz in the Bistro was absolutely perfect. I recommend Arnaud's to everyone as a dining experience not to be missed in New Orleans. After your first visit, you'll be a fan for life!
We try to visit New Orleans a couple of times a year. We hadn't eaten in Arnaud's for several years, but we'll be sure not to wait that long to return. The entire experience was elegant in a way that only a restaurant of Arnaud's vintage can offer. First of all, the dining room is beautiful in an historic way. The service throughout the entire evening was faultless. Our meal, including Oysters Bienville, Drum Mitchell (fish of the day), and the Pompano David was done to perfection. This is the perfect last meal for a visit to New Orleans. For a very special evening, dress up, take your time, and enjoy a wonderful experience.

During a busy period of great trial day's all over the county, a large amount of FootballCV member's have received interest from the attending scouts representing clubs from professional and semi professional level.
At the trials day at Griffin Park, home of Brentford FC, the attending scouts were very impressed with the standard of players on show. Brentford FC themselves contacted FootballCV after the event and requested we pass their contact number on to an Over 18's Goalkeeper. The same goalkeeper also recieved interest from Conference Premier side Cambridge United, and has now had a contact number of the scout passed on.
The trial days held in the Manchester area at Oldham Athletic FC and Blackburn Rovers FC allowed players to showcase their talent in front of a number of clubs including Manchester United and Manchester City. Following the events, a Central Defender from the Under 18's age group has been on trial with newly promoted NPower League Two side Fleetwood Town FC. Two players from the Over 18's age group, four players from the Under 18's and two players from the Under 16's game's also attracted interest on the day's, this time from Conference Premier side, Hyde FC. The scout requested further details of the players and then went on to invite them in for pre-season training at the club.
Leicester City FC have really reaped the benefits of sending scouts to the trial day's all over the country. The club attending the events at Brentford, Oldham Athletic and Blackburn Rovers and from these three events invited a number of players to attend further trials at the Chamionship club. A Central Midfielder and a Central Defender from the Under 18's age group and a Left Centre Back, Central Midfielder and a Forward from the Under 16's age group all received the call from FootballCV to pass on the scouts number and arrange details of their trials.

Countering critics of a cap-and-trade critique
Eight million people viewed Annie Leonard's The Story of Stuff video since December 2007, and her new nine-minute Story of Cap and Trade (http://www.zcommunications.org/zvideo/3310) received 400,000 hits in the two weeks after its December 1 launch.
The film, produced by Free Range Studios, was developed in collaboration with the Durban Group for Climate Justice and Climate Justice Now! networks, which joined Climate Justice Action and other networks to put tens of thousands of activists on the streets of Copenhagen, London and dozens of other cities in recent days, demanding large emissions cuts, the payment of ecological debt to climate victims, and the decommissioning of carbon markets.
But critics abound, so what trends can we discern from the sometimes venomous feedback to Story of Cap and Trade, and what do these tell us about US and global climate politics? Consider three categories:
- libertarian climate change denialists;
- Big Green groups and other carbon trading supporters; and
- self-interested green capitalists.
To start, rightwing extremists are easiest to dismiss because they deny that climate change is a product of human/economic activity - but there's a schizophrenic double agenda. For although they're pro-business, libertarians like Fox tv's Glenn Beck oppose market-based cap-and-trade schemes.
The most dangerous, Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe, denies 'that we're going to pass a cap-and-trade or we're going to do something on emissions reduction,' as he told the rightwing NewsMax agency on Sunday.
Australian climate denialists now control the official opposition party, having overthrown its leader last month due to his cap-and-trade endorsement, in the process halting the state's proposed emissions trading scheme (http://agmates.ning.com/forum/topics/canberra-protest-rally-live?commentId=3535428%3AComment%3A9579).
Those of us fighting carbon markets certainly *don't* want alliances with cretins like Inhofe or intrepid videoblogger Lee Doran. After a clumsy rebuttal to The Story of Stuff, Doran offered another zany video-attack (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWjGZNDEH-A), in which he first agrees with the demolition of cap-and-trade, but then replies to Annie's charge that rich-world overconsumption victimizes those least responsible for global warming:
Annie: 'Did you know that in the next century, because of the changing climate, whole island nations could end up underwater?'
Lee: 'Yes, and islands will emerge from the water too, it's part of the natural cycle of the planet.' (minute 6)
Enough said about flat-earth libertarian ideologues.
In the second group we find both pro-market 'green' ideologues - i.e., 'always find a market solution for a market problem!' - and well-meaning environmental advocates operating under conditions not of their own choosing within Washington's adverse balance of forces.
From at least 1997, when Al Gore shoved cap-and-trade into the Kyoto Protocol with the soon-to-be-broken promise that Washington would then endorse the climate treaty, many greens who earlier criticized market solutions concluded that the market was the only game in town, due to prevailing power relations.
But instead of trying to change those power relations, most of Washington's Big Green groups held their noses and went to work expanding carbon trading from London to the Chicago Climate Exchange, joined by like-minded academics and green policy wonks.
Along the way some turned eco-egotistical about their chosen trade. Eric de Place of Sightline Institute takes the policy critique personally: 'All these years that tens of thousands (sic) of folks like me have worked long hours at low pay (or no pay) to hash out a workable and effective climate policy and it turns out that our purported allies like Leonard would rather paint us as duplicitous bankers in pin-striped suits.'
Notwithstanding the long underpaid hours hustling cap-and-trade - wasted, if judged by the subsequent evidence of carbon market failures - de Place's injured tone is misplaced. As Annie did in fact acknowledge, 'Some of my friends who really care about our future support cap and trade. A lot of environmental groups that I respect do too. They know it's not a perfect solution and don't love the idea of turning our planet's future over to these guys, but they think that it is an important first step and that it's better than nothing.'
However, as the film demonstrates, carbon trading is not better than nothing, it's far worse than nothing. As the US's top climate scientist, James Hansen, insisted in the New York Times last week, a Senate bill or Copenhagen deal based on cap-and-trade are indeed worse than no bill, no deal: carbon trading 'actually perpetuates the pollution it is supposed to eliminate' (www.nytimes.com/2009/12/07/opinion/07hansen.html).
Ideologically, the market environmentalists risk sliding down a dangerous slope. For instance, amongst conservationists in both Southern Africa (where I live) and Seattle (where de Place lives) this question has been posed: should markets be relied upon to preserve threatened wildlife, even endangered species?
In our case, the challenge involves rhinos and elephants whose ivory tusks attract murderous poachers seeking riches in the East Asian aphrodisiac markets. Poachers have reduced the big animals' populations dramatically in recent decades. In the Pacific Northwest, instead of aphrodisiacs, macho trophy hunters seek coastal grizzly bears for their fireplace mantels.
Market-environmentalists react with a simple formula, which - to quote Robert Mugabe - reduces life to a commodity: 'They must pay to stay' (http://baraza.wildlifedirect.org/2008/03/10/illegal-wildlife-trade-is-fueling-wars-in-africa/). Mugabe and his allies seduce hunters to visit Zimbabwe in order to maintain a 'sustainable' herd for the killing pleasure of rich tourists (not ordinary Zimbabweans' viewing pleasure).
De Place, too, defends the trophy industry: 'I'm not sure that hunting is bad for the species being hunted' (http://www.grist.org/article/to-save-a-species-shoot-here - and for a rebuttal by the Raincoast Conservation Foundation, see http://www.grist.org/article/raincoast-responds-to-eric-de-place ).
David Roberts of Grist (http://www.grist.org/article/2009-12-01-annie-leonard-misses-the-mark-her-new-video-story-cap-and-trade/) also suffers pro-trading panic, calling the film 'the perfect representation of all the confusion and misplaced focus that plagues the green left right now.' In contrast, he confesses, 'I'm generally viewed among greens as a defender of cap-and-trade-or, in the less charitable version, a defender of the "party line," a shill for the administration, a sell-out "insider," whatever.'
Quite. Roberts cannot defend the US and EU cap-and-trade systems' free pollution allowances and billions of tons of offsets, rebutting that we should criticize not carbon markets, simply prevailing legislation. But the dreadful Waxman-Markey and Kerry-Boxer carbon-trading bills were complemented in mid-December by Senator Joe Lieberman - 'This is the market-based system for punishing polluters previously known as "cap and trade"' - to now include offshore drilling for oil and natural gas, nuclear energy and 'clean coal' scamming.
Another new bill offered by Senators Maria Cantwell and Sue Collins last week was endorsed by de Place and his colleague Alan Durning even though it has only a 4% emissions reduction target for 2020 from 1990 levels. Go figure, the author of the great 1992 anti-consumption book How Much is Enough?, Durning, now calls this irresponsibly low target 'solid' (http://www.grist.org/article/2009-12-11-cantwells-cap-and-trade-bill-almost-genius/).
Ideally Kerry, Lieberman et al will be punished by Washington's grid-lock, as the bills suffocate in Capitol Hill's corporate pollution - a good thing, since their death would at least preserve the existing Clean Air Act, which all the main legislators except Cantwell-Collins threaten to gut.
Roberts grows yet more defensive on matters of principle: 'I don't know why the green left has decided that markets are bad, in and of themselves, but it seems both politically unwise and substantively thin.' He *doesn't know why*? Only a year after the world's worst market failure in recorded history, with global trade and financial indicators far lower after eighteen months than a similar period in 1929-31?!
Aside from concern about the self-destructive tendency of financial markets which host carbon trading (witness the EU Emissions Trading Scheme collapses in April 2006 and October 2008), the green left offers many substantively thick arguments why business environmentalism is flawed, and why commodifying natural resources - like the air, in carbon trading - generates systemic market failures.
For example, Africa's greatest political economist, Samir Amin, has just penned a damning attack on environmental markets (http://seminario10anosdepois.wordpress.com/2009/12/01/the-battlefields-chosen-by-contemporary-imperialism/#more-37), as has University of Oregon professor John Bellamy Foster (http://sociology.uoregon.edu/faculty/foster.php): The Ecological Revolution: Making Peace with the Planet (http://www.monthlyreview.org/books/ecologicalrevolution.php). Either can assist Roberts to plug the gaping holes in his pro-market consciousness.
Roberts doesn't seem to understand the severe dangers associated with an anticipated $3 trillion in carbon trades by 2020, which will become the basis for further trade in financial derivatives, for he derides the film's warning about Wall Street speculation: 'Leonard et al. seem instead to have decided that "market Goldman Sachs derivatives bugga bugga!" suffices.'
But Roberts, de Place and NRDC policy director David Doniger (http://switchboard.nrdc.org/blogs/ddoniger/the_rest_of_the_story_of_cap_a.html) dare not trash the film's proposed solutions, such as stronger EPA regulatory enforcement and citizen activism (e.g. West Virginia mountaintop defense). There is greater potential to push the EPA into action - in spite of misgivings by NewEnergyNews' Herman Trabish (http://newenergynews.blogspot.com/2009/12/oversimple-story-of-cap-and-facts.html) - than to win legislation regulating carbon within ill-functioning, untransparent financial markets, in which 'too big to fail' deregulatory freedom was amplified by Bush-Obama's 2008-09 bailouts.
The third critical group includes green technocrats with financial self-interest. That may explain why at least one of them - Adam Stein from TerraPass - is so very cross, absurdly entitling his attack on the film, 'Why does Annie Leonard hate the environment?' (http://www.terrapass.com/blog/posts/why-does-annie-leonard-hate-the-environment, and another is carbon consultant Gay Harley, http://carboncommentary.blogspot.com/2009/12/no-rest-in-copenhagen.html).
Stein claims, 'cap and trade and carbon taxes are functionally equivalent policies' - but they're not. As Hansen points out, carbon fees would easily withstand the scamming and price volatility so notorious in the carbon markets.
Ultimately, for Stein, 'one criterion clearly stands above all others: which policy actually stands a chance of passage in the US Congress?' Unmentioned, for obvious reasons (the Congress being a wholly-owned subsidiary of big business) is that a carbon trading policy only enjoys the 'strong support' of a meager 2% of the US voting population, who 'favor a carbon tax over cap-and-trade by nearly two-to-one,' according to a Hart Research survey (http://www.sustainablebusiness.com/index.cfm/go/news.display/id/19351).
But given Washington's adverse power relations, a genuine climate policy must avoid the corporate-ruled Congress for now, and instead focus on command/control by the EPA. (To be sure, a stronger EPA would also rule many of TerraPass's own projects - especially those methane-electricity landfill conversions that undermine zero-waste strategies - as unworthy of green investment.)
Of all the film's supposed errors, says Stein, 'my favorite for sheer chutzpah, if not for actual importance, is when Leonard dings Kyoto because "energy costs jumped for consumers."'
But Stein may want to look at what European consumers now see: no net emissions reductions on the one hand, and on the other, massive criminality in the EU's carbon trading scheme (Europol estimates five billion euros have been stolen in tax fraud, as just one example), alongside regressive energy price increases (the poorest suffer a much higher burden of expenses than the wealthy, and are least able to make the transition to the post-carbon economy).
So when the film refers to higher EU energy costs, this is not chutzpah, it's critical realism. No one more than Annie is committed to raising consumption costs appropriately so as to deter waste; Story of Stuff's viewers learned of unaccounted-for eco-social externalities that should be internalized in her $4.99 radio, for instance.
Actually, the most telling contribution to the critiques of our cap-and-trade critique comes from an unlikely source: Charles Krauthammer (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/12/10/AR2009121003163.html). The despicable neocon columnist fused all three hostile narratives when he wrote, last Friday, against the EPA: 'Congress should not just resist this executive overreaching, but trump it: Amend clean-air laws and restore their original intent by excluding CO2 from EPA control and reserving that power for Congress and future legislation. Do it now. Do it soon. Because Big Brother isn't lurking in CIA cloak. He's knocking on your door, smiling under an EPA cap.'
Sorry, the big brother who so frightens Krauthammer is far bigger than a beleaguered Washington environmental agency and far more dangerous to corporate profits than pro-market 'green' critics of The Story of Cap and Trade actually comprehend: simply, a new global movement known as Climate Justice.
(Patrick Bond, a content advisor to The Story of Cap and Trade, has written widely on the climate crisis: http://www.ukzn.ac.za/ccs/default.asp?2,68,3,1887.)

A somewhat unstable executive at a nuclear plant uncovers evidence of a concealed accident, takes drastic steps to publicize the incident. Tense, prophetic thriller that ironically preceded the Three Mile Island accident by just a few months.
Plot, Summary, Synopsis, Story, Script, Novel:
KTLA Television human interest reporter Kimberly Wells aspires to do hard hitting news stories, whereas station brass wants to keep her to her current position; they're more concerned about the color, length and style of her hair than her investigative abilities. While doing a human interest story at the Ventana nuclear power plant, she may have stumbled onto her dream story when on-site she witnesses what she thinks is a near nuclear disaster. Her freelance cameraman and friend, Richard Adams, clandestinely films the event as it unfolds in Ventana's control room. However, station brass quashes the story due in part to liability issues. Although disappointed, Kimberly initially follows her boss' directives as she wants to protect her career path, whereas Richard wants to use the film to really find out what happened. Uncovering the truth hits an early snag when the regulatory commission reports that the plant faced no major issue during the incident. Both Kimberly and Richard believe the quick and favorable report was due to the fact that development of another nuclear power plant is currently going through the public consultation process. Back at the plant, Jack Godell, the supervisor on duty in the control room during the incident, believes that something indeed is wrong with the plant due to the event, when he felt a tremor on-site. His beliefs are strengthened due to some radioactive leak in the plant from an unknown source and the discovery of some falsified documents, the latter which he knows may be a threat to his life by the perpetrators. Jack, with Kimberly and Richard's help, does whatever he can to get his story into the public consciousness to avert what he thinks is a potential nuclear meltdown at the plant. But the power company is determined to keep Jack quiet and to protect their billion dollar investment, namely Ventana.
