Purchased 4-09. Numerous call back. Leaking thru ceiling, etc. Not cooling, 6-10. Not cooling again. Lost 3 pounds. Two day fix, two visits. Told installer/purchased from wanted new unit. No lemon law. Told "good luck with that". Very disappointed. Would never buy another Ruud. No contact numbers with manufacturer available. What does that tell you? Do your homework before purchasing.

"Stuck !!! in a Rudd"
For the last 3 yrs. out of 8 yrs, we have had the welds rewelded, coolant leak . Well, said very common??? We have two units. Yes, you have to replace both not one as the coolant does not go into the old unit when buying a new one. Think there's a recall on these???

"quality work"
We haved owned this Ruud system for 8 years. This system is great, no trouble at all. Keep your filter changed and have it serviced once a year. In a lot of the reviews I have read, it sounded like some of them are rating the installation and the service they got or didn't get. I would say, look for a quality company to install your HVAC system. Get a contract (and read it) make sure you and your contractor understand all in the contract. You will both be very happy.

"RUUD still going after 20 years"
Another summer is here and the unit is still working. Needs freon but it is still somewhat cooling. Will have annual maintenance done soon, to correct that. Will shop for another Ruud for my mobile home. The contractor wants to put in a Goodman, but you get what you pay for. Goodman is cheap. Happy with Ruud. I don't know who the installer was though.

""Buyer Beware" RUUD ultra"
I purchased an 18 plus seer Ruud Ultra system from ecm h/c in South Florida eight months ago. After 2 weeks, I came home to a hot house. The ecm technician came out and said the thermostat was bad. Two weeks later, the same thing happened. a message scrolled on the thermostat telling me to check ac and call for service. Technicians returned a few more times and in December removed and replaced the entire coil and additional sensors. After the coldest winter in Florida's recent history, I turned the unit back on to receive the same message. ecm returns and tells me the unit is experiencing a high voltage problem to call the power company and electrician. After having the power company and a master electrician check my power, they determined the power to my house was fine. ecm tells me Ruud says the unit is fine and their salesman who had at one time told me how patient I was will not answer or return my recent calls regarding this piece of junk. So much for the ecm no lemon policy. It seems that the manufacturer will not take responsibility and the dealer wants to dance around the subject while there was no problem cashing my check when the unit was purchased. I now have no trust whatever in both the manufacturer or the dealer.

"Ruud HVAC"
After 7 years, I have to replace my whole unit. I was told by the original installer that I have a leak in the compressor and leaks in the inside coil unit. Total cost $1600. The year before, I spent $600 to replace 2 parts in the compressor. The installer dyes left me high and dry by saying they could not help me but they would sell me a new one. I am very disappointed at the poor service and equipment Ruud sold me. I still have it so if you want to check out my complaint, plus the bill from last year. Why don't you stand by your product?

"Very Satisified"
I have owned a Tall Ruud Central Air Conditioning system for 16 years. Two years ago, the company I work for started to carry the Ruud Brand. Almost every day someone tells me they love their system. Almost all of the problems that arise with an air conditioning system come from bad planning, wrong equiptment selection, wrong size ducting, bad power supply, poor service, and a bad installing contractor!!!! Get references, buy quality work and enjoy the tax rebates while they last. Ruud is a tremendous product, choose your system and installer wisely. I know I sell it every day!

Purchased unit model uand/048jaz of the Ruud Achievers Series in November 2008 through a company by the name Frontier AC & Heating. The first unit installed had to be replaced last summer because it kept shutting off and blowing hot air during the summer of 2009. The unit was defective and simply did not work. The current unit, an exchange since the summer of 2009 worked well until 2 weeks ago. We have since experienced 3 malfunctions!!!! The company that installed the unit is on her way back to my house. I am sorely disappointed. Survisor to say the temperatures this winter in South Texas have been the coldest in a long time and the forecast for tonight isn't any better!!

The a/c unit that replaced a perfectly cooling Carrier does not adequately cool my home...I Called to inquire about the cooling problem and the 1000 rebate.The salesman promised a rebate but the owner informed me that 'if it wasn't on the contract it doesn't exist'A furnace was installed at the same time, and the first time it turned on I smelled gas. The gas company told me not to use the heat and call the company. The name of the company is Cummings Plumbing, Tucson

"Problems from day 1"
From the first year there was a coolant leak in the main coil of the air handler. So many soldered joints, it's no surprise. The a/c installer charged up the system and told me to call for a replacement if there was a future problem, and when I did the company had gone out of business. Now the compressor has failed - just out of warranty. Thanks for nothing, RUUD.

Spot here's my take on there's a big speech.
President Obama will -- -- along a few hours from now it will be on the economy.
His campaign wants to press the reset button mr.
Obama has not been doing well on the economy he wants to make a comeback.
It reminds me all of the race speech which he delivered shortly before the -- election.
He had been having trouble explaining his relationship with the very provocative minister reverend Jeremiah Wright.
Big speech reset the race -- Positioning the future president above the racial frank.
Many believe that speech propelled Barack Obama into the White House will today's big speech on the economy and keep him in the White House that is the intention.
But it may not be the result.
Advance reports suggest he will not make any big old bold -- new proposals to get us out of our economic Malays but how could it.
A change of course implies he's been following the wrong policies for three years a new direction implies the old policies failed.
Instead we are told he will double down with -- for more government spending.
I'm not sure that makes the big speech great it may define economic policy eloquently.
But it does not redefine it doubling down does not shift the judgment a -- yeah.
We will of course be watching and you'll see here on the Fox Business channel but let's be clear.
If we want America to return to prosperity we need a really big speech.

Now that the Pro CFW project is open source, nightly builds of the PSP custom firmware have been popping up on the dev team's Google Code project page. StepS and homebrew developer Yoti, one of the devs responsible for the constant PSPIdent updates, have compiled one of the latest builds with the most new additions.
Revision f6312063516a unofficial changelog:
Remember, this is a nightly build, so stability can become a concern. These nightly builds are in no way supported by the dev team. Also note that this is only for hackable PSPs. As QJ.NET forum member flofrucht explains, if you run it from a PSP 2000 (DateCode 8C/Ta-88v3), PSP 3000 and PSP Go you run the risk of getting a full brick.

By Kim Hasty
CAMERON - Some time Saturday night in nearby Carthage, Elvis will have left the building.
Or, rather, the cage.
The annual edition of the Carthage Buggy Festival will feature something a little different for this, its silver anniversary.
You have to wonder whether, back in 1989, when the Buggy Festival first began as a way to celebrate the town's history and the once-famous Tyson and Jones buggy factory, anyone would have thought to invite a bunch of reptiles.
But this year, Elvis, a 5-foot green iguana, will be on hand to entertain an expected crowd of about 20,000.
Elvis is the leading lizard of Chris Eichele's nonprofit organization, Midgard Serpents Reptile Rescue. Elvis generally has the run of the house, as well as the backyard at Eichele's home just off N.C. 87 in Cameron. For the festival, however, Eichele was still searching late last week for just the right comfy cage befitting a superstar.
Likely to be joining Elvis at the festival are either Tick Tock or Jaws, both of whom are dwarf Cayman alligators, as well as a python, a boa, a tarantula, a turtle or two and a Madagascar hissing cockroach.
But not all of the attractions at the popular festival will slither or have scales.
The festivities of the Carthage Buggy Festival begin Friday night (May 10) as the Carthage Fire and Rescue Squad celebrates 100 years of service at the Moore County Fairgrounds, featuring good food and a parade of antique trucks, engines and ambulances.
Saturday's festivities (May 11) kick off with the Run for the Buddies 5K at New Century Middle School. Registration opens at 7 a.m., and the run starts at 8:30 a.m.
The rest of the day features children's rides and games, food, music and crafts, as well as plenty of historic buggies.
The Purina Incredible Dog Team, new to the festival this year, will perform every two hours from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
At noon, Miss Moore County Jocelyn Hunt will crown Mr. and Ms. Buggy Festival, Mr. and Ms. Pine Lake and Mr. and Ms. Tara Plantation.
And at 4:30 p.m., the popular 10th annual Buggy Festival Idol Contest will begin.
But somewhere along the way, be sure to stop and say hello to Elvis, who obviously got his name from his charm and good looks.
Besides, he represents a good cause. Chris Eichele operates one of only two reptile rescue groups in the state.
His organization, licensed by the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission, rehabilitates and shelters unwanted or sick reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates, taking in those that others don't want.
And, as Carthage administrative assistant and reptile fan Dina Tharp said when asked why anyone would want to have such a thing as a snake for a pet: "Why not?''

For every client action, there is an equal and opposite real estate agent reaction.
Believe it or not, there are some fundamental similarities between Newton's Law of Motion and being a real estate agent. At the heart of a successful real estate agent is great client service. No client concern, demand, or question should be left unanswered, because to not react to a client is to defy the laws of success in real estate.
Recently, I sold the home of one of my employees and it was a unique opportunity to see the evolution of the home selling process from a client's perspective. Mind you, my clients are not typically shy and feel comfortable enough to share their thoughts, questions and concerns with me throughout the process. And that's great – that's what helps me help them sell their home.
But it's another thing altogether to have someone sitting six feet away rapid-firing unfiltered questions across a range of topics from 'how do I select a lender' to 'how are you going to keep the cat from getting out during the open house?' to 'Can you hear me now? How about now? Now?' While my clients aren't typically shy, I do think they sometimes hold back some of their concerns because they (shh – don't want to bother the busy real estate agent). That's hogwash. Which brings me to another of Newton's Laws:
"Real Estate Agents are the intermediaries between buyers and sellers in real estate transactions. Agents work long, erratic hours including working most weekends, spending much of their time showing properties to clients. The field is highly competitive, which can cause high levels of stress."
I'll buy that. And it further shows that you have to love your job and your clients in order to do it well. You can't fake success in this business – if you try and pretend that you love helping people buy and sell homes, you're facade will eventually wear off like bad stucco, your sales will slow and you will certainly no longer be a real estate agent in motion.
Often people see being a real estate agent as a 'fall back' job. So, for example, your current position isn't working out so you'll sell real estate for a while until something better comes along. Or, you want to work part-time, how hard can it be? Not to show disrespect to any part-time real estate agents or those that took it up as a side-job, but you just can't make it in this business unless you are fully committed to the job.
So how does a real estate agent answer the rapid-fire questions of not just his overly-vocal employee, but the 100+ other clients he or she helps over the course of a year? I'll tell you how. With a great team.
"Teamwork divides the task and multiplies the success."
Success begets success if handled properly. Once a real estate agent reaches a certain critical mass of success, there is an opportunity to hire support and build a team that enables you to be even more effective, more responsive, and ultimately more successful.

Former Japonais chef Gene Kato is channeling the Japanese art of robata grilling at Sumi Robata Bar (702 N. Wells St.), due to open any day now in River North along with a basement lounge called Charcoal Bar. In the same neighborhood, look for fine-dining Chinese restaurant Lao 18 (18 W. Hubbard St.) coming soon from Chinatown powerhouse Tony Hu. Meanwhile, former Saigon Sisters chef Matt Eversman is readying dishes such as whitefish with grilled watermelon and kimchee (pictured) for his East Asian-inspired restaurant Oon (802 W.

Introducing Generation Zero – Kiwi Youth Stand Up for a Positive Green Future
'Generation Zero' calls for Zero Emissions Plan
Kicking the fossil fuel habit and achieving zero net greenhouse gas emissions are central to a positive future for young New Zealanders.
Generation Zero was launched today by young New Zealanders intent on reclaiming our future. This new movement seeks to unite young people around a vision of a zero carbon New Zealand, and empower them to stand up for their right to a positive future.
Generation Zero Spokesperson Chelsea Robinson says, "Right now our futures are under threat because of short-sighted decision making. Rather than just growing increasingly worried and angry, we are standing up to make sure that climate change starts getting the attention it deserves."
Human activities have already caused greenhouse gases to reach unsafe levels in the atmosphere, and we are now seeing predicted effects of climate change, including more extreme weather events. The full impact is still to come, and young people have the most at stake since we will live into the consequences. Unless New Zealand and other nations drive emissions down to zero in a matter of a few decades, we can expect changes that put our future in jeopardy.
New Zealand has no credible emissions reduction plan: only a mechanism to shift most of the costs to a future generation – the Emissions Trading Scheme. According to a recent UN report, the plans currently in place will achieve only one third of the emissions reductions required to meet the Government's own 2020 target. In purely financial terms, young people stand to be lumbered with an undue share of the carbon debt being racked up due to current inaction.
Generation Zero seeks all political parties and government agencies to raise their ambition to what is required, not what we are told is politically acceptable. That means:
- A plan to achieve zero net emissions in New Zealand before 2050
- A timetable set in legislation to action the plan, with three year milestones
- A plan that emphasises emission reductions but allows the use of permanent, biodiverse afforestation to meet targets
- A plan that ensures today's carbon bills get paid today.
The ultimate requirement is New Zealand playing its part in a plan to deliver an atmosphere with carbon dioxide reduced to the level NASA's James Hansen has shown is needed for a safe and stable climate – less than 350 ppm (parts-per-million). That depends on international action, but New Zealand must move to zero net emissions under any positive scenario.
"We are Generation Zero: the generation to oversee the transformation to a zero carbon world," says Chelsea.
"This isn't just a name, it's an identity. It's our place to step up and make our voices heard on how this plays out, and it's our time – this election – to ignite change."

It has become clear that NGO's in Russia have ties with NED and the Orwellian titled "Freedom House". Russia has taken much flak for placing immense restrictions on foreign-funded lobby groups and NGOs, demanding that they exhibit the same level of transparency and honesty that they themselves demand of the government. Evidence has come to light that they were probably correct to do so. Clearly foreign funding and their links with NED and other organisations play a major part in how these people have operated in Russia. It seems the NED backed "colour revolutions" and movements bringing so called "democracy" to countries like Libya, Iran, Yugoslavia, and now Syria, etc were also planned in Russia. Lots of NED funded NGO's and protesters have been active in Russia for some time. Now Russia's new transparency requirements have made this much more difficult. Taking a closer look at some of the people involved reveals the links with NED and their foreign funding and hence the true motives of some of these NGO's Comments (1 of 1)

This story was originally published Dec. 21, 2011.
JOLIETTE — Raynald Desjardins appeared remarkably calm for someone facing a first-degree murder charge for the slaying of a former New York mob boss.
The 58-year-old joked with his lawyer, Jonathan Meunier, as he was about to appear before Quebec Court Judge Michel Duceppe at the Joliette courthouse Wednesday morning. Desjardins's first court appearance lasted only a few minutes, but security at the courthouse was unusually high.
Many members of a Sûreté du Québec tactical squad, dressed in plain clothes, were visible outside the courtroom as well as inside. It's not every day someone is charged with killing a mobster like Salvatore Montagna, a man who was alleged to be the head of the Bonanno crime family in New York when he was deported to Canada, his birthplace, in 2009, after U.S. authorities realized he wasn't an American citizen.
Duceppe set Jan. 4 as the next court date in the murder case and dealt with a request from Desjardins that he be supplied with a medical device that helps him breathe when he sleeps while in custody. Desjardins also said he requires four different types of prescribed medication.
The career criminal's health problems were also an issue while he was serving 10 years of a 15-year prison term, from 1993 to 2004, for conspiring with the Hells Angels to smuggle more than 5,000 kilograms of cocaine into Canada. He was denied parole several times while serving that sentence ,but was granted special escorted leaves to treat his multiple sclerosis.
At the time of his conviction, Desjardins was a close associate of Vito Rizzuto, the man reputed to have led the Mafia in Montreal until he was extradited to the U.S. in 2006. Rizzuto is currently serving a 10-year prison term there.
Appearing with Desjardins in court Wednesday were Vittorio Mirarchi, 34, of Ste. Adèle, and Felice Racaniello, 27, of Montreal. A fourth man, Jack Arthur Simpson, 69, will appear at a later date, prosecutor Eric Côté told Duceppe.
Simpson owns the house on Île Vaudry, an island just east of Montreal, where Montagna, 40, was killed on Nov. 24. Simpson was arrested for an alleged parole violation days after Montagna was killed. He is serving a 28-year sentence for trafficking more than 300 kilograms of cocaine in California.
All four men are charged with the first-degree murder of Montagna and with conspiring to kill the man police believe was aggressively seeking to take control of the Mafia in Montreal.
Côté informed Duceppe that the conspiracy charge in the indictment will be modified to allege that the plot to kill Montagna began on Sept. 16, the same day someone tried to kill Desjardins in Laval. Desjardins survived the attempt on his life, when a gunman opened fire on two vehicles he and his bodyguard were seated in.
Modifying the conspiracy charge is a clear indication investigators believe Desjardins and Montagna were at war in September even though the two men are believed to have tried to achieve a consensus over the summer about who should assume control over the Mafia in Montreal. The crime organization was left without a leader after a major RCMP investigation and the November 2010 murder of Vito Rizzuto's father, Nicolo.
Côté had no comment about the case after the accused appeared before Duceppe. Meunier, a former prosecutor, and the other defence lawyers also had nothing to say.
Two other men who were arrested Tuesday in the Sûreté du Québec investigation into Montagna's murder were also brought to the Joliette courthouse Wednesday morning. The two men – Calogero Milioto, 40, and Pietro (Peter) Magistrale, 59 – were not charged with murder, but they face a long list of weapons-related charges. The firearms were seized while the SQ carried out 16 search warrants on Tuesday. Magistrale is charged with storing at least three loaded 9 mm pistols at an undisclosed location in Laval.
His arrest on Tuesday was not the first time Magistrale has been apprehended in connection with a murder. In March 1992, he was arrested while riding in a Ford Thunderbird with a man who was wanted by Montreal police for killing the doorman of a downtown club a month earlier. Magistrale was charged with possessing two firearms found inside the Thunderbird. The charges were dropped in 1993, but Magistrale pleaded guilty to possessing heroin found inside the car.
Milioto does not have a criminal record in Quebec. In 2008, he was arrested along with more than 40 others as part of Project Croisière, a joint investigation by the SQ and the RCMP into a drug-trafficking network controlled by the Hells Angels. Milioto, who is related to an associate of the Rizzuto clan, was charged with two firearms-related charges in Project Croisière. But the case against him was dropped in June 2009.
Magistrale and Milito are scheduled to return to court on Dec. 28.

Da Domenico
Online Reservations
As always, Da Domenico is a special place for me. Outstanding Food, outstanding service and a place where very private conversations can be conducted
The food is superb and the atmosphere charming. One of the the owners, Ambrose, is truly delightful and makes every dining experience extra special.
This is by far my favorite Italian restaurant in the area. It has been around forever and there's a reason for that. All the food I've tried has been great. My favorite dish is the chicken parm, but the linguini with clams was amazing as well. They are known for their pork chop and veal which I plan on trying next time, since my family members are obsessed with it. The wine selection is great too. They have two parts of the restaurant, the back section is quiet and romantic. If you are going for a special occasion I recommend getting a booth in the back. The front of the restaurant is more lively, so it really depends what you are looking for. But I recommend all to give it a try.
This is a nice, old-fashioned Italian restaurant. The staff is friendly and welcoming, the tables are nicely spaced and the food is good. I enjoyed my Bolognese, the sauce was rich and hearty. The opening Caprese was marred by underripe tomatoes but the mozzarella was excellent. The wines are a bit pricey.
Da Domenico was fantastic. Great food, great service, nice ambiance. A little on the loud side, but part of that was the owner breaking into an opera song every now and then. We definitely intend to return.
Da Domenico maintains the highest standards in all respects.The service on April 15 was especially attentive and congenial.The lobster bisque was especially tasty.
Candle lit & Linen service, lovely salads (Insalata Mista & a tomato Caprese), food was excellent !! Very nice list of wines with a nice emphasis on some great Italian wines. Special treat that night in that the Maitre'd came and sang a lovely Italian opera song... All in all wonderful experience!
Coming from New York, I had low expectations, but i was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food; so delicious and the service was excellent! I will visit again!
Da Domenico offers the best veal chop I have ever tasted. I've tried them in other excellent restaurants, but no one can compete with Da Domenico. The other night I also had calamari - another outstanding offering at this lovely restaurant. In addition to the fabulous food, the service is absolutely flawless.
The service and ambiance was lovely, and we didn't feel rushed at all which is rare now when going out to eat. The food was good, but not to the level I expected.
Totally enjoyable experience. Great for families and friends.
Great service. Accommodated my youngest child with a small bowl of pasta and meatballs when she wanted something else. Food was excellent, and is always a great place to dine.
This was my first time to the restaurant and it was my birthday. The owner/host sang italian songs, they sang happy birthday to me and brought me a piece of declious chocolate cake! Everyone was very friendly and attentive to our needs. I had the gnocchi and added shrimp- it was delicious. Highly recommend this restaurant!
Glad we finally went to Da Domineco. Seen the sign for years just never remembered to go and try it. Will go back again. Food was good and there are other things on the menu I want to try next time.
Our waiter was excellent. We were not rushed and he listened to how we wanted to dine for the evening. We ate and enjoyed our wine at our pace. Very enjoyable evening.
Food is always outstanding as it was this time; the service is fantastic and very responsive to every request. The management was very attentive to the dining experience and helpful with contacts for obtaining a particular wine we were looking for. AND, Ambrose with his Italian opera was FANTASTIC.
The accomodations were great with seating for privacy. The staff was excellent, attending you all of your request. The food was excellent. I can't wait to return for dinner again. We truly enjoyed this exceptional dining experience. I plan to share this dining experience with my friends and business assiciates.
The veal chop was great but the 'Cleopatra' was better. The Cleopatra is seafood pasta dish with scallops, shrimp, mussels, and lobster. The past was cooked perfectly, not quite al dente, but certainly not cooked too long either. The recommended wines were good matches, especially the red with the veal chop. To top things off, the tiramisu was above average but the crepes and strawberries were excellent.
Came down for a concert at Wolftrap and we were looking for a non-chain Italian restaurant near our hotel. So glad to have found Da Domenico! We sat in the back room, which we preferred to a table in the front room/bar area. I had the Linguine Cleopatra which had mussels, shrimp, scallops, and 1/2 lobster tail in a lobster brandy cream sauce - it was yummy! I started with the Insalata Misto, which was good, too. My husband had a salad special, buttermilk mozzarella with heirloom tomatoes. It was creamy and delicious! He ordered the veal Parmesan for his entree, and was sorry afterwards that he didn't go for it all and get the veal chop.The tableside serenades were an unexpected treat that truly added to the charm of the place! A great find!
My husband and I drove by this restaurant quite a few times but never went because it was not easy to figure out how to get to it! The place was empty when we went and we were placed in a nice large booth. Our server was very sweet but rather pushy and treated us (mid 20s) a bit like first time diners with no knowledge of good food and wine. The food was very tasty and not too heavy as American-Italian food often is. We requested red wine and my husband had one picked out but the server said "I will get you something very nice!" and did not give us an option. She came back with two glasses of cheap Montepulciano that I could recognize from first sniff. The only thing we didn't like was the wine that was pushed upon us. So be assertive!
Suprisingly delicious dinner made a Tuesday night special and memorable. Food exceeded expectations. Husband had seafood linguine with champagne sauce. (Think shrimp, muscles rivaling the best Belgian spot & 1/2 lobster tail.) I had lemon picatta veal & the special tomato salad. We (with some help from our clever and fun server) talked ourselves into a bottle of Italian wine (another special that night). The decor throws you back into an 80's fine dining experience but ironically it is a refreshing change to the over-used hip vibe that has become the norm. Perhaps is was the need for a respite, the fact that it was a Tuesday and the bottle of wine but something tells that it was really the great food that made it such a pleasant suprise.
The whole experience was excellent! Food and service exceeded all our expectations! Would highly recommend.
Da Domenico has been around for decades. The food is outstanding. The service is attentive yet not obtrusive. It is one of my top 3 Italian restaurants in NOVA.
Veal chop (house specialty) is excellent and the sauce made for it is truly outstanding. Seafood meals ordered by my family members were also excellent. Service staff was very attentive and very nice to the entire table. This place is a real gem. It would have a line out the door if it was on a main street somewhere but it is hidden out of the way by old Route 123 and Pinnacle Drive. I never knew it existed but definitely plan to go back for that veal chop again and again!
I have never had a bad experience here. They have famous veal chops, best in the area for over 30 years and all of the pasta dishes and desserts are heaven. There are private seats with cushions and curtains if you want a romantic hideaway during dinner. The wine menu is comprehensive and the service is phenomenal.
My wife and I went to Da Domenico for her birthday and everything was perfect, as always. We hadn't visited in over a year, but our waiter recognized us. The menu is new, but the food is still great. I ordered the famous veal chop, and as usual it was delicious. 16 oz veal chops are hard to come by, but Da Domenico consistently serves large, tender pieces of meat. My wife had the penne with chicken, artichokes and sun-dried tomatoes in a tomato cream sauce. She loved it, and the portions were large enough that she had lunch for the next two days. For dessert we split the Chocolate Mousse Cake, it melted in our mouths. Everything about the evening was perfect, which is what we've come to expect from Da Domenico.
The food was Delicious, and the Service was Excellent!
Our party had salads, the filet mignon and the lasagna. Our lasagna was very good and the filet mignon good but not exceptional especially considering the price. We enjoyed the salads very much, particularly the house special with pears. The service was outstanding.
This hidden gem is not easy to get to, but well worth the effort for anyone who has an epicurean palate and an appreciation for impeccable service. The decor could use a touch-up, especially the ceiling.
Excellent. We had not been in awhile and we were extremely pleased. There are a hidden gem.
This restaurant is a local gem that I would most certainly recommend to my friends. I will be visiting this restaurant again in the near future.
The veal chop was definitely the most amazing I have ever had, it just melts in your mouth. Very pricey, but worth it. The restaurant seems heavy on veal dishes, even my wife's Lasagna was made using veal. I think our waiter was a bit pre occupied doing something, he wasn't as attentive as I thought he should be. But it was the best Italian food I have had in a while.
This is odd. Da Domenico had no record of my reservation. When I returned home, I received an email saying the restaurant cancelled it. Now I'm getting an email from Open Table asking about my reservation? I'm very confused.
This is a gem great food knowledgable wait staff great wine comfortable atmosphere !
This was not my first time here. The food and service is consistent and very good. the folks are very warm and appreciative of choosing their restaurant. They have been in businees for over 30 years.
Our dining experience was a wonderful one. I had requested a private booth towards the back of the restaurant which was honored. The wait staff was immediately attentive, and checked on our table throughout dinner. The food was exceptional, and of course, the signature dish being a veal chop, was so very tender and delicious! Pricing was on the high side for the specialty, but overall the rest of the pricing was not out of the ordinary for a fine dining establishment.
Great veal chop. I eat here every time I'm in the area.
1st time there. D's was recommended by good friends. We can see why. Excellent food, top notch service, and great atmosphere.
Da's is a place to go for a quiet dinner, or great group lunch. There is a server at Da's named Betty and she is our favorite. We have been going to Da's forever, and have loved every meal. The veal chop is superb. Go to Da's, ask for Betty!
We went to DaDomenico to relive some memories while we were visiting NoVA. I am so happy to say that the veal chop is just as tender and delicious as I remembered it. Our lobster bisque was served at a tepid temperature but a brief word was all it took to have that corrected. The second try was hot, velvety and heavenly. The Big Finish was a happy birthday surprise for all of us. We had mentioned on Open Table that this was a birthday celebration but this was not remembered until we brought it up again. They went over the top to make it up to us with 4 free desserts and 4 glasses of sparkling wine on the house. It was a great walk down memory lane and everyone had a lovely time.
We have been to Da Domenico numerous times & it was always good, but every aspect of our dinner this time was terrific! Our server was friendly & professional & gave us time to enjoy our drink before we ordered. His recommendations were spot on. We shared a Caesar salad & chocolate mousse cake dessert. Main course was shrimp scampi & veal piccata.....It's Sunday morning & I am salivating as I write this. The restaurant was only about half full on a Friday evening, so we were a bit worried that things may be slipping here, but that was not the case at all & I highly recommend Da Domenico for a quiet, romantic Italian dinner.
Date night was almost a week ago and we are still talking about how good a time we had at Da Dominico. The food was delicious, the service was speedy, the staff was warm and made us feel at home. Occasionally at finer restaurants my boyfriend and I (ages 25/27) get ignored or less attention because of our age, but not here. We were treated like their top priority and Da Dominico deserves the highest ratings!
Great food, very friendly waiters/ staff. Authentic Italian atmosphere, Italian servers (some not all). Best gnocchi ever, awesome veal chop. Great specials, great food. Give it a shot, you won't be disappointed. Did I mention the food is always amazing? I have ordered many dishes and have never been unhappy. The food is amazing! Fun place to take a date, friends, parents. Not the best for young children but I'm sure they are more than welcome. Sort of a small restaurant, so make a reservation. Gets semi busy Fri/Sat night as well as weeknights.
A really great place to enjoy a dining experience. The food was excellently prepared and reasonably priced. The interior of the restaurant is very nicely done so don't be fooled by the outside which is a little blase'. The staff is very friendly and accomodating. It is almost as if they had invited you into their own home for dinner.
Excellent food as always. Service was fir since it took so long to get our food and then to get a correct bill. We needed separate checks and it took quite awhile to get them. Then it took quite awhile to get the slips back to sign and tip.
I have been coming here for a few years and know that I am a newcomer to this neighborhood gem that was swallowed up by Tyson's Corner. It still has Italian charm and I love the ambiance. Brought my high schoold chums and their wives there and it was one of our top experiences in our 40 year tradition of holiday dining. The food was delicious and authentic. My highest cudos.

Sometimes, all your wardrobe needs can be met with a new accessory. This is precisely what happened when I found this vintage Kodak camera case. It makes a really fun new-to-me purse!
Rotating a smaller purse into your daily life is better for your back and shoulders. Some of my bigger handbags get so heavy, and I just add more and more items inside. This smaller bag made me edit my items down the essentials. The result? A much lighter bag!
The best part? The case is embossed MADE IN USA on the bottom.
Dressing room confession: I will always spend a little bit extra on an item if it is made in the USA!

Your logs look OK to me. The program waits 480 seconds (8 minutes) after the show file size stops changing. This means 8 minutes after it has stopped recording. And your log shows that. So I am puzzled by your initial post where you state that it starts converting WHILE the show is recording. This is not possible [EDIT: since the show is still recording and the file size must be changing]- your log shows that.
any chance it might be because i played a little bit of the program when it started recording then closed it?. mabye I will test a few without trying to play them until they are done. what about user account contol? I have not turned it off yet.. i will just havent yet.. mabye I hould remove all and start over and see what happpens.. I know it all looks correct but mabye a clean slate will help.
i'll keep you informed
thanks very much for your help so far
When going into Settings, or any DVRMSToolbox program, RIGHT-click on the program you want to start and choose Troubleshoot Compatability- then choose Try Recommended Settings, then Start the Program.
I have had the same issue. Started to convert a file while it was still recording. Ended up with an 8 minute file. The funny thing is I checked the tv show that was recording to see if it was increasing it size but it didn't for a long time. Does 7MC store the recording in some sort of temp buffer and only update the main file every once in a while? Could explain it....
Burger23:When going into Settings, or any DVRMSToolbox program, RIGHT-click on the program you want to start and choose Troubleshoot Compatability- then choose Try Recommended Settings, then Start the Program.
Sorry, I should clarify. When I run any of the DVRMSToolbox programs, it opens a progress window saying "configuring DVRMS Toolbox" and eventually brings up an error stating that a service is already running and then rolls back and says there was a fatal error during installation.
I am confused- there are many changes that must be made in the DVRMSToolbox Settings- you state above that you can not get into Settings. Is this true?
Have you tried running the DVRMSToolbox Settings program, after deploying the AddIn, using the method I described above? You are forcing Settings to run in a XP mode
Burger23:Have you tried running the DVRMSToolbox Settings program, after deploying the AddIn, using the method I described above? You are forcing Settings to run in a XP mode
I use the compatibility mode work around on a regular basis- it does work as described. I also turned OFF the UAC.
I do not have the "short show" issue- and I have no idea what causes it. Some else will have to respond.
There is a problem with the Deploy, I have run into the same thing.
in a text editor take out the "%windir$\ehome\RegisterMCEApp.exe /u commercialskipaddin.exe" and save the file..
If you have already unregistered "CommercialSkipAddin.xml" reregister it by doing the following
Open an elevated command prompt and get to the directory that has "Commercialskipaddin.xml" in it by changing the directory (example: C:\Windows\System32>cd \win7dtbaddin)
Then execute the following command:
"%windir%\ehome\registermceapp.exe /allusers commercialskipaddin.xml" (without the quotes)
This will reregister the old addin that you need to have the DVRMSTbSettings work right. You have to go into the extras library to disable "Commercial SkipAddin" (not DTBAddin) and you'll be fine.
This crap took me over 4 hours to figure out, I also re-installed my OS two times.
If you have a lot of shows cutting off, there is a problem with the WTV Converter in some of these beta verisons. The best I have found is 7077, however 7057's was pretty good and RC1 will not do a show longer than an hour. So, what version are you using?

REVIEW: Prophecy by Ellen Oh
Dear Ellen Oh: I'm on an endless quest to find traditional fantasies featuring worldbuilding not based on Western culture. This desire is not without its pitfalls, of course. Sometimes it's led me horribly awry. But I keep trying because I'm hopeful (and stubborn). My first exposure to your writing was through the Diverse Energies anthology.(…)

Tanaiste Eamon Gilmore |
Absolutely would agree with most of this article. However I would suggest that most of the negativity, is due to the media in particular the Irish Times and RTE. The sanctimonious rants and sermonising from the media are beyond tedious and nauseating - and do Ireland's image no good whatsoever - but the fact is they don't care...they're neither Irish in spirit, nor (most likely) in blood.
Pure spin Try living here in Ireland see the reality.Easy for the overpaid so called Irish politicians to say Ireland is getting better. The truth is it is getting a lot worse with tens of thousands more going to emigrate in 2013.Young people are walking the streets like zombies no jobs no hope no faith in the establishment all they can do is hope to scrape the price of a plane ticket together and get the hell out.By the way anybody care to ask what salary Eamon Gilmore takes from the bailed out rep of Ireland.
Throw some of the Celtic Tiger's Triad (politicians, bankers, developers) in jail and I'll open a bottle of champagne, fatty!
It's Allen's Ireland and the rest of us are living in it. He should gather with Mary Robinson and explain to the youth of Ireland why they should emigrate.
This all reminds me a bit about when my mate from Russia cheated at Monopoly and I didn't give a crap.
Mousemenss: Ceartúchán beag, tá do chuid Gaeilge that barr. Ach ní féidir abairt a thosú le Áfach.
"The Irish people's disdain for the completely incompetent career politicians and corrupt bankers who sank their economy is wholly justified. That's not 'self-loathing' that's self-awareness." Well said, olovely. The forced bailout of the reckless international creditors of private banks by the Irish taxpayer was nothing but theft. When the Irish have the temerity to complain about this crime, it is deemed "self loathing" by the anglo infested Dublin establishment.
Smyrnian, Ceard faoi Obama? Nil tracht ar bith air san alt seo. What about Obama? There is no mention of him at all in this article. Afach, ta an difhostaiocht agus an eacnamaiocht sna Stait Aontaithe ag feabhsu beag le beag. However, The economy and the jobless figures of the USA are improving bit by bit regardless of you of how you feel about him, Smyrnian.
Good points by olovely, irishpjk, Jack Kass, Searlit and especially by Smyrnian… "Socialism never worked anywhere". As far as I know, true socialism is about the rich being forced into sharing their wealth with the poor and middle classes from whom and by whose human endeavours they make their riches. So can anybody explain to me why Ireland's poor and middle-classes are being forced by the Irish Govt and EU officials into sacrificing and paying billions of Euros into senior and junior bond-holder (aka known as multi-billion financial gamblers) accounts in each recent year ? (And, let's face it... ongoing, this tough year, ahead for most Irish households). This sounds like 'turning well-meaning common-sense socialism' on its head, otherwise known as 'extreme capitalism'. As for Paul Allen's article above… well, he failed to mention the human cost of these despicable financial enforcements that are allegedly driving an economic recovery that no Irish person has seen a result of yet… a topic he wrote about in September last year: the relatively high incidence of suicide in Ireland in recent years specifically due to the recession. Can Irish Govt members and/or EU officials be brought to court and charged or sued for driving some citizens to suicide???
I'm with Clinton. I think we're pretty great. We're weathering the storm, and for those still in the cloud, it will pass. Let's make it so. It is part of Gilmore's job, little as I like politicians, to talk things up. Ologón will get us nowhere. We want to get moving, give our young people a chance to get back home if they wish, use our skills and energies to build a nation and help one another. Sounds twee and simple. Try it - it's not so simple, but it works. And to NicGearailt: I also used to have difficulty with focused - I discovered both are accurate :-)
wtf All you need to remember is that Mr. Gilmore is part of the government in power and living high on the hog. So what would you expect him to say, things are bad and getting worse, end of his job and out he goes, it's the old wait til next year saying. Just read the last budget that came out before Christmas, things are bad and getting worse and the people in power just keep on drawing their big salaries while they shaft they little guy and working man. If you want to check go to Dublin airport and see how many young people are on their out work in the USA, Canada and Australia
mini alert ..of course I meant that you should NOT let the politicians be the definer of outcomes..sorry about that,readers!
I support the thought that ,after you have survived the cutbacks ,setbacks etc...you then become a possibility thinker !!You are the manager of your own life..take a deep breath ,make a plan that takes 1 step ..then evaluate..You should let the politicians be the definer of outcome.Keep your energies focussed(? spelling) on you.Maybe it's time to make a little noise on your own behalf.Exercise and go to bed early!!
I can relate to the comments by the Irish here. The Politicians and the wealthiest people are so out of touch with what the working people, in a given economy, are going through. I felt it a bit disingenuous regarding President Clintons remark, also, even though I think he usually means well. The writer could've taken his own advice and ended with a positive note, rather than a poke.
Obama was the US cheerleader for the same cause, and it was a waste of time. In fact, it hurt - since things were worse than he said, and people believed it. But in fact, our economy still sucks.
It's funny how just as Ireland is now holding Presidency of Europe that all these feel good stories happen to appear. These change's in our fortunes conveniently coming to us by a PR firm that is possibly holding Government Contracts, which Mr Allen should state if he is or not in this article. Ask the people who paid vasts amounts of money on stamp duty when they purchased their houses and who are now going to be made criminals due to the upcoming property tax how this is the greatest little country in the world or how the politicians who protect their huge salaries and unvouched for expenses while at the same time preparing to sell off the countries national assets. Maybe Mr Allen would like to explain why building developers and others who brought Ireland to it's knee's received up to 49% write-offs on their debts but the people who bought the properties these people were selling are being crucified with unsustainable mortgage repayments.These are truths Mr Allen, so please tell me how disagreeing with you is ridicule.
This is the sort of waffle we had to endure from the likes of Haughey in the days when we believed any kind of patronising old guff.
The Irish people's disdain for the completely incompetent career politicians and corrupt bankers who sank their economy is wholly justified. That's not 'self-loathing' that's self-awareness. I don't know which Ireland this writer thinks he's living in, but it's hemorrhaging young people at the greatest rate since the Irish Famine. Ignore that silly news! Smile! - writes this galling columnist. You can see the pinstripe Louis Copeland suit, the school uniform of the Irish establishment, in his portrait and in his writing you can see all the bland indifference to the plight of the plain people that wearing one has come to represent.

Cruise and liner history: SOLAS LAW proves to be overdue for revision after (Carnival Corp) Costa Concordia disaster. SS Yarmouth Castle horrendous fire recalled.
The Yarmouth Castle disaster led to the creation of the Safety of Life at Sea law (SOLAS) in 1966 – but the recent (Carnival Corp) Costa Concordia disaster has proved the law totally useless and manipulated by the USA cruise industry.
Democratic Rep. Doris Matsui (D-Calif.) says the Italian cruise ship accident that left 11 people dead shows the need for more regulation of the industry.

Many reporters, media workers and news casters are the only way that the general public gets their information about the world's events and what is happening in the world. That means that the way that the media worker presents the story can really play an impact on what the person believes or doesn't.
The news and newspaper are trusted media outlets that many people turn to as their trusted source of information. This type of thinking puts a lot of pressure on a media worker to be able to present that story with as must neutrality as possible. There can be no sharp tone to their voice, no condescending note when they are talking to others and certainly no aggressive measures while reporting the story.
This can be an incredibly hard thing to do especially when a media worker has such strong views on something. Say a person is required to report on the war in Iraq, but they do not currently believe that the war should be allowed to continue or even given the green light as far as funding and ability. They must cover this story or face termination.
Most news reporters will go out there and report the story to their best of their ability as a neutral source. However, they really are showing what side of the story they are on. There are non verbal communication skills that go into this type of story. Say a reporter cuts someone off, turns to the side a bit or talks quickly. These are all signs that they did not want to be there and that they are forced to portray a story that they did not want to.
The general public begins to pick up on these items and their ideas are influenced by what they see on the tv. So while a bit of bias is not intended it happens anyway and the public's opinion could be quickly swayed by it.
