The Cherokee County Sheriff's Office went public Wednesday with the video from the gas station and 911 calls made to Atlanta 911 and Cobb 911 at two different times on Tuesday in hopes someone will come forward to identify the male caller or callers.
The released video is of a silver Cadillac DeVille the caller may have been driving, but the tag number is not visible, investigators said.
The first call made to Atlanta 911 from a pay phone at Ponce de Leon Avenue at Piedmont Road is easy to hear, and detectives say they believe it was made by a black man.
The other call made at a pay phone at the East Marietta Chevron at 1501 Roswell Road is harder to discern, but Capt. Joe Perkins with the sheriff's office says it sounds like a white male voice pattern when amplified.
"The tone of voice, the speech do not match in the two calls," he said, but would not rule out it could also have been the same person because of the audio quality on the second call.
The second call was made to Cobb County 911 while investigators were still searching the courthouse after the first threat.
No explosive device was found Tuesday and normal business at the courthouse resumed Wednesday morning with no problems.
One theory investigators are pursuing in the case is the possibility the caller or callers were trying to disrupt the auction of foreclosed properties set for Tuesday on the courthouse steps and shut down by the threats.
"That is certainly one of many scenarios we are considering and it is a good scenario," Perkins said.
Sheriff Roger Garrison told the Tribune there were not many items on the court's calendar on Tuesday that could be helped by a disruption at the Justice Center and that it seemed possible the bomb threat was made because of the foreclosures.
"Why yesterday of all days when it was not a heavy court day," Garrison said of the threats. "We are evaluating all possibilities, including the foreclosure sale."
Garrison said the second call, which came in about 2 p.m. could also have been a copycat.
"It could have been a copycat, could be the same person, we are pursuing several possibilities," the sheriff said.
In the Atlanta 911 call, which was received about 11 a.m. Tuesday, the operator picks up and asks, "How may I help you?"
The caller replies: "Yes. Uh. Cherokee County Courthouse will be bombed today. There's gonna be C-4 on the ground. Be bombed today."
The caller then hangs up.
C-4 is a military-grade explosive used for several purposes.
Investigators said both calls mentioned C-4 as the explosive in the threat.
The bomb threat did end the foreclosure auction on Tuesday, with the second call causing law enforcement to shut the courthouse for the rest of that day.
According to the Cherokee County Tax Commissioner's office, state law says that on the first Tuesday of the month between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. foreclosures advertised for the last four weeks can be auctioned off on the courthouse steps by representatives for the banks holding loans on the properties in foreclosure.
The Tax Commissioner's office was not having an auction on Tuesday for delinquent taxes.
Many of the properties that would have potentially been auctioned on Tuesday by banks could be delayed for at least two months, because those being foreclosed on would have to be notified again and the property advertised for four more weeks.
As the legal organ of the county, the Cherokee Tribune publishes notices for foreclosures and attempted to work with those who were unable to complete their foreclosure auctions on Tuesday to allow them to get legal notices in Friday's paper, the first of the month.
Most said they were not able to reach their clients in time to meet deadlines and they would have to wait until next month to advertise their properties, making the first Tuesday in August the first chance to see the properties up for sale once again.

History of the Landscape Architecture Firm of
Hare and Hareby
Cydney Millstein
Architectural and Historical Research© State Historical Society of Missouri
Parks educate people in an art equally as grand as the art of painting or sculpture. They influence people to adorn their home ground, to plant trees and shrubs and to study nature, the mother of all true art. -- Sidney J. Hare, 1897
Sidney J. Hare formed a landscape architecture firm with his son, S. Herbert Hare in Kansas City, Missouri, when the practice of landscape architecture in America was still a fledgling profession. Continuing a tradition of landscape design and city planning begun by George E. Kessler, the father of Kansas Citys parks and boulevard system, the successful father and son team of Hare and Hare taught us much about the nature of their art and the beauty of the land around us. Along with other notable pioneer landscape architects such as Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr., James Sturgis Pray, and Henry Wright, Hare and Hare also "built on landscape architectures dual heritage as a fine art and a profession of social environmental reform to establish the planning profession in the United States."(1)
A native of Louisville, Kentucky, Sid Hare was born on January 26, 1860. Along with his family, Sid moved from Kentucky to Kansas City, Missouri, by riverboat in 1868. Sid had no formal landscape training, but as a high school student, he had studied horticulture, civil engineering, geology, surveying, and photography. In Kansas City, from 1881 to 1896, Hare worked in the city engineers office, where he was introduced to George Kessler (1862-1923). It was this relationship with Kessler, who was then a landscape engineer for the city, that inspired Hares interest in landscape design.
In 1896, Hare resigned from his city job to become the superintendent of Forest Hill Cemetery in Kansas City, Missouri. The following year at the Association of American Cemetery Superintendents convention in Cleveland, he made his debut as an authority on cemetery design. At a subsequent convention in 1901, Hare discussed the cemetery as botanical garden, bird sanctuary, and arboretum -- probably the first such conversation of that topic on record in the design evolution of the modern cemetery. As proof of what he believed, Hare assembled at Forest Hill one of the most comprehensive collections of trees and shrubs in the Midwest.
Hares opinion that nature was the mother of all true art and that painting, sculpture, and landscape art were ready-made inspirations for adorning home grounds, reflected his background and avant-garde ideas.
Hare compared the landscape ideals of naturalistic parks with those of modern cemeteries. He realized that the large expanses of well-managed lawns with trees and shrub groups, which exemplified parks, could be applied to contemporary burial grounds. Over the next thirty years, Hare incorporated velvet lawns, groups of ornamental trees and shrubs, mirror lakes, curving roads and walks, and long vistas into the cemeteries he designed. By combining the distinctive features of parks and cemeteries, Hare set the precedent for two decades of refinements in cemetery design and ambience.
Hare resigned his office at Forest Hill in 1902 to establish himself in the practice of landscape architecture. His resignation was "a great loss to Forest Hill" but a "blessing to cities, cemeteries, and wealthy families in twenty-eight states."(2) In the first decade of the 20th century, Hare already had established a well-reputed and successful business, partly due to his 1897 article entitled "The Influence of Surroundings," which appeared in the notable publication Park and Cemetery and Landscape Gardening. Among Hares early projects in Kansas City and the region were Cunningham Park in Joplin, Missouri (1907) and Waterway Park and Parkwood Subdivision in Kansas City, Kansas (1907). More than twenty-five major projects in six states either had been completed or begun by the time Hares son returned from college to join his father in partnership.
A plan for the Bethany Hospital grounds in Kansas City, dated 1910, confirms the year that the office became Hare and Hare. The new partner, just back from studying landscape planning at Harvard University, was S. Herbert Hare. As a special student, Herbert had been admitted to Harvards School of Architecture in 1908. He completed the work for a masters, but the degree was not granted because he had not satisfied the required preliminary course work. With Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr. as his principal instructor, Herbert was one of the first six students in the United States to formally prepare for the new profession of landscape architecture. The Harvard program, the nations first landscape architectural curriculum, produced "most of Americans leading landscape architects for the next half-century."(3)
During their twenty-eight year association, Sid preferred to pursue park and cemetery projects, while Herbert mastered the details of community planning and design. Herbert also worked as a consultant to City Planning commissions throughout the Midwest. Early commissions included Wagner Place, Jefferson City, Missouri (1913); Point Defiance Park, Tacoma, Washington (1914); the Park and Boulevard system, Kansas City, Kansas (1915); Campus of the University of Kansas, Lawrence (1913-1918); and several cemeteries, in addition to smaller private and public projects. Their trademark -- winding roads contoured to natural topography, preservation of trees and valleys, and an eye for the scenic vista -- became well established.
In 1913 the firm attracted the attention of J.C. Nichols, who hired the Hares to work on the Country Club District in Kansas City. In addition to laying out approximately 2,500 acres, the firm designed the grounds for many of the homes, including some of the five-acre estates that made up the original Mission Hills, across the state line in Johnson County, Kansas. Herbert was personally responsible for subdivision planning, for many of the detailed entrances and parks, and for creating appropriate settings for many of the imported objects dart that Nichols placed throughout his developments. By collaborating with Nichols on the masterplan, the firm made the jump from "site scale" to "district scale planning." [See also the WHMC-KC exhibit on Ward Parkway.]
Most of Hare and Hares private work ceased during World War I, with the exception of Sids cemetery design business. Herbert worked for the United States Government, designing military installations, including Camp Funston, Fort Riley, Kansas (1917), five camps and cantonments in the South and projects for the U. S. Housing Corporation.
Hare and Hare collaborated again with Kessler and J. C. Nichols on the plan for the new town of Longview, Washington, the largest pre-planned city of its time outside Washington, D.C. During the early 1920s, community planning and design changed appreciably when America realized the needs of an increasingly industrial and technological society. In 1922, as one of the "first post-war manifestations of this awakening,"(4) Longview, Washington was created.
Hare and Hare received the design commission, with George Kessler as design consultant and J.C. Nichols retained as realty consultant. The plan, which included a central business district, three residential areas, suburban acreage, and a central manufacturing district, also provided an area for two enormous mills. Longview was a challenging assignment because of its scope and demonstrated Hare and Hares expertise in yet another aspect of their practice -- city planning.
By the end of the 1920s, the firms national reputation was secure. Projects in twenty-eight states, including cemeteries, college campuses, subdivisions, parks, and military camps, had been commissioned. Hare and Hare also collaborated with prominent Kansas City architect Edward Buehler Delk in planning the Country Club Plaza, yet another J.C. Nichols development in Kansas City, Missouri. Herbert began to spend a great deal of his time with the public sector as a consultant to city planning and parks commissions throughout the U. S., in cities such as Houston, Fort Worth, Dallas, and Oklahoma City. The appointment of the firm to finish George Kesslers Kansas City, Missouri commissions when he died in 1923 "was a measure of Kesslers respect and trust of the Hare and Hare firm."(5)
Between the depression and Sid Hares death in 1938, Hare and Hare completed several Kansas City, Missouri projects including the Laura Conyers Smith Municipal Rose Garden in Loose Park (Sid completed the planting plan in 1937, a year before his death) and the setting for the Nelson Gallery of Art (1930-1937; now the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art). Yet much of the firms work in the 1930s was outside Kansas City, partly because Hare and Hare was finishing Kesslers commissions and partly because of Herberts disagreements with local politicians. Notable commissions from this era include plans for numerous state parks throughout Missouri that began in 1937 and continued through the 1950s (Arrow Rock, Bennett Springs, Mark Twain, Table Rock, and Wallace); campuses for the University of Houston (1937-1950); University of Kansas Medical School, Kansas City, Kansas (1934-1936); University of Texas at Austin (1932-1939); and private developments in Wilmington, Delaware and Houston, Texas.
World War II brought a change to the firms commissions. Hare and Hares work in the early 1940s concentrated almost exclusively on government subsidized projects including military housing. From 1945 through the 1950s, Hare and Hare resumed varied projects for the private sector in 33 states, Canada, and Costa Rica including numerous campus plans: Texas Christian University, Fort Worth (1945-1955); Southern Methodist University, Dallas (1947); University of Kentucky, Lexington (1957); Kansas State University, Manhattan (1951); subdivisions in Missouri, Texas, Georgia, and Kansas; and the grounds for the Harry S. Truman in Independence, Missouri (1956) and Linda Hall, Kansas City, Missouri (1957). In addition, planning and zoning studies became a large part of their work. In 1960, soon after completing plans for Lake Jacomo, near Kansas City, Missouri, Herbert Hare died. "Hares death," stated an article in the Kansas City Times, "leaves a regional as well as a local void that will be hard to fill at a time when excellent urban planning was never more desperately needed."(6)
The partners that Sid and his son personally selected carried on the firms tradition until the mid-1960s when a number of factors contributed to a significant drop in commissioned work for Hare and Hare. Once the firm gave up the idea that they could be both landscape architects and engineers, they were faced with abolishing the engineering aspect of their work altogether. The city planning portion of their work went through the same pattern and once public funds decreased, the staff left one by one for better jobs. In 1975 a merger with Lawrence-Leiter and Company, a city planning firm, was announced. It was commonly believed that this merger would regenerate business for Hare and Hare, but in 1977, Lawrence-Leiter pulled out. In 1980, in an attempt to revitalize their work and renew their reputation once again, the firm of Hare and Hare merged with Ochsner and Associates to form Ochsner Hare and Hare, which continues today.
Sid Hares national reputation as a leading authority on cemetery design led him to be elected as a fellow of the American Society of Landscape Architects (1912). Herbert was also active professionally. He frequently lectured and published articles on English suburbs and European garden cities that served as models for city and regional planning. He was elected a fellow of the American Institute of Park Executives and served as a director of the American Institute of Planners. Moreover, he served as vice president of the ASLA (he had been elected a fellow) in 1940 and as president in 1944.

Last week I asked for something to fill the gap that Neptunes Pride left behind. None of you answered with anything decent, you useless…people. By coincidence though I heard about Lord of Ultima and as some of you know all too well, I'm somewhat captivated by it. This is my town. I have gone wrong in my life. It's a free to play MMO smashed with a simplistic Settlers. When you start you are given what is basically a big patch of land with some walls, resources, and a friendly tutorial lady. From there you start building up a town…

Why I love my Sejour Leggings
It's not every day when you fall in love with an article of clothing. I will admit I'm in love with my Sejour leggings. I know you might be thinking this sounds silly, but unless you own a pair you wouldn't understand.
Many pairs of leggings have come into my life and they've been OK. Sometimes they'll fade after one wash or a new hole will appear out of no where. You know how frustrating that can be.
Sometimes, you just need a decent pair to get through a season. Thank goodness Nordstrom sent me this pair to try out. It's like they were reading my fashion mind.
**Disclaimer: I was not paid for this post. Although, the item was gifted, the above is my true and honest opinion.

ROKA AKOR - Chicago
Online Reservations
At 8:30pm on a Friday, the Resturant/bar was lively and friendly. The last of the families departed leaving a generally younger crowd. Roka's concept that all dishes are meant to be shared makes for great conversation and debate about what delicacy to try next. The grilled peppers topped with bonito flakes was a hit with our table - the heat from the peppers makes the fish flakes writhe as if they are alive. The chef's choice sashimi was presented on a bowl of shaved ice studded with ice blocks. The fresh wasabi lacked the bitter bite of the powdered variety. The wait staff made us feel special even though we could see she was very busy. A great experience.
It was our 17th wedding anniversary. I did mention that when making a reservation and requested a nicer table. We got the last table in a row (even tables in the middle of the row were still free), in the corner, next to the pay station and service area. I understand this if the restaurant was fool, we did not have a reservation or it was a casual night. But it was a special occasion for us and I regretted picking this place. We did move to a lounge area afterwards and had a very nice knowledgeable server and a nice dinner thanks to her. But we are not coming back.
I am a sushi lover and this is by far one of (if not the) best in the city. We had a whole collection of different dishes and each was fabulous. I think my only complaint was that our server was a little slow to attend to us and we had a REALLY hard time understanding him through his thick accent. Overall, fantastic food, but also significantly more expensive than other sushi places in the City. You are going to pay top dollar for the food here, but you will receive top quality food.
The business lunch is a fantastic deal. Delicious. Friendly staff. Beautiful decor. We love this place and will go back many times!!!
Took my son out to celebrate his new job. Food was exceptional and the service was great. He said it was the best meal he has ever had!
What a wonderful place to share a meal with friends. My only suggestion would be to instruct the bartender in the correct mixology of a Long Island Iced Tea. With fantastic food, it was a shame to wash it down with so poorly constructed a beverage. Waiter kind enough to bring Diet Coke to cleanse the palate. OTW a beautiful spot.
We expected great... And we got even more. The selection and flavors were fabulous. Will definitely return next time in Chicago.
My wife and I dined at Roka based on the recommendation from our hotel staff and boy are we glad we did. The food was delicious and the service was prompt throughout the night. We'll definitely be back during our next visit to Chicago.
The fish was fresh and wonderfully prepared, the server was kind and helpful. The sake list is very well thought through and varied. A good experience over all. As a warning the decadent meal choice is very very very plentiful.
We love Roka Akor. We go to the Scottsdale location usually but were visiting Chicago and celebrated my Sister's birthday there. My kids are 6 and 8 and love the chicken teriyaki and avocado rolls that make up just the way they like them. The dessert chef accommodated my Paleo diet with a beautiful topical fruit platter. We love the steak and cod and mushroom hot pot with truffle. Yum! The service is always prompt and attentive. Thank you Rola Akor for your consistency in high quality across the country!
ROKA AKOR is one of my favorite restaurants in Chicago. The food is always excellent and the service is terrific. The butterfish appetizer is a must.
Every single dish that came out was IMMACULATE! If I had to pick the LEAST favorite, it might have been the Wagyu Dumplings, only because after eating the acutal Japanese Wagyu Steak that came from the Robata grill that literally melted in my mouth, I thought that it should not be chopped up in stuffed in a dumpling. It was our girl's night and there were 6 of us total and also celebrating 2 birthdays. We all shared the following: Pork Belly (aaamaaazziing), Scallops, Oysters, Wagyu Dumplings, Summer Salmon Roll, Hamachi Serrano Chili Roll, Special Duck, 6oz Japanese Wagyu, Wild Mushroom Rice w/ Black Truffle, & a bottle of Sake. Literally, everything was delicious and our server Alex was also very helpful and friendly!
Good food..good ambience..prompt..was a bit thrown back when I reserved with restaurant this is my wife's special bday as also the waiter Brian anounced his acknowledgement of the occasion...yet nothing came of a lil shoe in for a comp desert or anything...and even knew the waiter for years at a previous restaurant chain.. I just found that to be a bit odd. Valet was expediant..however couldn't help to think of sunda through the window as I was tipping the 25%..which seems customary.
We ordered some of everything, and nothing disappointed! Small serving sizes, meant for sharing, so you'll need to order several plates, but each came with own dipping sauce and distinct flavors. Overall, the food was great. A bit pricey for what you get, but also a nice ambience.. I wouldn't quite call it romantic b/c of the noise level.. it can get loud. My husband/I opted to sit next to each other so we could hear over the noise (and b/c we are inseparable :). I'd recommend Roka Akor for the experience, but probably won't go more than couple times a year.
Gotta go here. Between Roka, Sunda and Japonais, these restaurants headline Chicago's amazing asian-fusion scene. The service was excellent, drinks were good and food was out of this world.
Roka Akor was the only positive experience I had in Chicago. I'm not accustomed to the big city. Stayed in Tinley Park with my girlfriend for a long weekend, which was a great idea (30 min from Chicago). Everything I had planned for the day in Downtown Chicago went to he!!, and was a big waste of time and money; EXCEPT Roka Akor. I have a life long experience in fine dining, growing up with a father as a 5 star chef, and being a head chef myself for a few years. This restaurant was enough to make up for the entire disappointing day. Our server was the best I've ever experienced, and he was very helpful in guiding us through the experience of authentic Japanese dining. Expect to spend ~2 hours for a full dinner experience you won't forget.
We all ordered the set dinner and were not disappointed! The food was fantastic, although it was quite a bit so bring your appetite! It was a bit loud but the ambience was nice.
Even though Roka Akor has no Michelin stars, my wife and I agree that it was the best meal we have ever had. We had the decadent Omakase, which included sashimi, wagyu, lamb, lobster, crab, truffle rice, various desserts, etc. Simply amazing! Alinea left us impressed too, but it was more of an artful, and high level service experience; some dishes we did not care for.
I really enjoyed my visit. I am one of those picky eaters and wanted to try things I had never had before. Everything looked so enticing, I had no problem trying new things. The head chef also let us try a special dessert he is working on for the fall and it was delicious. Our waitress was extremely helpful, answered all of our questions. Even the bus boy was courteous and polite. I would definitely recommend and visit this restaurant again.
The restaurant was inviting and the service was great. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and the selections of sushi were amazing. Our group of 4 had no complaints. Definitely will be back soon!
One of the best culinary experiences I've had in Chicago for a long time. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for. Creative, fresh and tasty food and cocktails.
This restaurant has never let me down. The sushi menu is small but it is incredible quality. Be sure to try the Fatty Blue Fin Tuna. I can't wait to go back.
I have been wanting to try this restaurant for a while now and it was everything I imagined it would be. I loved the bar scene and all of the bartenders. They were so friendly and took very good care of my girlfriends and I. The food was phenomenal, and just what we were looking for. The chef sent us tuna toasts out, on him and the bartender gave us a drink on him as well. The lobster tempura was to die for, well worth the expense! The waiter was a little off that night but it could have just been a weird day for him. Anyways, overall we loved our visit and would definitely recommend it to anyone!
The food and scene at Roka has always been good, but the service has been average to worse. However, after not dining at Roka for a couple of months, we found the complete package on this visit. Great hostess up front, very attentive bar service, a waitress who was there when you wanted her and busboys who kept things clear and water glasses full. As usual, the crowd was lively and happening and the food was excellent. Roka is back on our rotation.
We came here for a friends birthday and Roka Akor never disappoints. The food was amazing! We shared everything. We got a few rolls, scallops,salad,asparagus,rice and a filet from the Roboto section. We even got desert. We were very happy when we left!
A work colleague of mine highly recommended ROKA AKOR- it was my first visit to Chicago and I'm glad we followed his recommendation. The sashimi sampler platter was delicious- we wished we had gotten 5 pieces instead of only 3. We both had the Black Cod (house specialty) and were not disappointed. The atmosphere was pretty electric and the restaurant was full all night long. On my next trip to Chicago I hope to try more of this cuisine.
The menu is a little intimidating so we went with the chef tasting menu. Turned out to be the best decision. The presentation was amazing! Everything we received looked incredible. Thy serves things that we wouldn't have normally ordered - we would have missed out on some incredible flavors so really happy that made that choice. The quantity is a little heavy so don't feel like you need to polish off everything they put in front of you (though you'll want to because the taste was incredible). Also, give yourself at least 2 1/2 hours to enjoy the meal so not a place to go if you're in a hurry. Overall, I would highly recommend tryin this restaurant.
Among the best sushi in Chicago. Very fine quality fish. Not many sushi places in Chicago can compete with high-end New York sushi restaurants, and Roka Akor does. We went back again on Wednesday night.
service outstanding was there for birthday celebration wanted to try omakase tasting menu but concnerend about size of courses so they took one course out and reduced price and let us choose what kind of tiems we wanted included and any allergies large portions took home leftovers
We had a teriffic seat right by the window so people watching was especially fun. I'm so sorry I dont remember our servers name but she was EXCELLENT. She explained the entire menu and basically ordered for us. Evertyhing she suggested we tried and LOVED. Thomas the Manager also was a pleasant experience and very knowledgable. The kimchi dumplings and Maki rolls were fantastic! Totally love ROKA and cant wait until my next visit!
I went with a couple girl friends for an early evening supper. We got some sushi and a few smaller plates to share. Everything we had was very good...but nothing blew me away. But then again, I've heard a lot of hype for this place, so I had very high expectations going into it. So, I would definitely recommend Roka Akor, it was very good food and service. Also...we shared two desserts, both of which were fantastic. By far the best part of the experience! :)
We had a group of 7. They were extremely accommodating. The waiter was helpful and made excellent suggestions to make our meal even better.
Service was outstanding, although we did dine at 6:00 on a Friday. It was filling up fast. Our server made wonderful recommendations. We shared a few appetizers, four rolls (there were four of us) and the skirt steak. The rolls were deliciously layered and surprisingly light (as rolls go). I would definitely go back. Interesting that its location is right across the street from Sunda.
I am a regular visitor to Chicago from Germany. Ever since the concierge of my hotel recommended ROKA AKOR to me I keep returning there. The food is absolutely awesome, I always order the OMAKASE (chef's selection) and was always surprised about what I got... in an extremely positive way.
Took some friends for dinner last weekend and can't say enough great things about our experience. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious and our server couldn't have been more attentive and helpful. And when it comes to cocktails, there's a jalapeno infused martini that in my book is a must try. I'd go back just for that!
What I especially like is that the chefs will usually work with you to create dishes not on the menu based on what you like ( and product availability). I just ask the server what the chef can prepare. And I always start with the butterfish!
Restaurant has outstanding food and it is beautifully presented. The location in Chicago (close to Michigan Avenue) is ideal, safe and gorgeous. The wine list is great. My only disappointment was that the prices are too high -- this restaurant is incredibly expensive.
food was great, but don't get the sampler menu, too expensive. Just pick and chose the items that seem most appealing.
Every dish is outstanding. There is not a bad item on the menu, I ordered the butterfish tataki twice it was so delicious.
I recently had the pleasure of hosting a few out of town guests at this restaurant. We were an international table of people from the US, Spain and Germany. Everyone at the table has eaten in different countries all over the world. Our waiter, Alex, was outstanding and had the wonderful idea to allow him and the chef to prepare our menu for us. It was brilliant and the most amazing experience. From appetizers to entree, the food was incredible. The sushi and sashimi were the freshest we've ever experienced and the presentation was beautiful. So much so, everyone took pictures. But, the highlight was by far the Korean Spiced Lamb Chops!!!! Truly the best thing we have ever eaten in our lives!!!! I can't wait to experience it again!!!!!
Excellent food, good ambiance but very pricey. One could get just as good quality food in Chicago for less..
2nd time to Roka Akor; it did not disappoint! We tried the Omakase menu - very good selection of food including octopus, fish, pork belly, steak, sashimi… My guest and I were very pleased with the variety within the meal and how the food was prepared. Excellent service as the wait staff were attentive and friendly. Will definitely come back the next time we visit Chicago!
Great for sharing entrees with a small group. The sushi was excellent and the best brussel sprouts I have ever eaten! A little on the pricey side...
Really hard to complain about this, but they were almost TOO attentive. Several times we had to stop them from taking a plate we were not quite finished with yet. The food was delicious. The Butterfish Tataki and Dynamite Scallop Maki Rolls are a must. Our server was outstanding and the wine selection was very good.
This was the spot picked for my mthly girlfriends outing. The drinks were wonderful and strong which is the way that I like them. The food was quite delicious and the service was beyond compare. There was never a point where we went without attention, whether it was from the manager or the wait staff. They were awesome!! There was no room in the main dining room when we got there but it was ok. The bar area chairs and table are comfy and the atmosphere is energetic but you don't have to scream to hear each other. I was worried b/c the maki roll selection looked ordinary but they were far from it. Actually, every roll was delicious!! I look forward to going back and trying the steak. Loved it!!!
I took my wife there for her birthday and it was great. We had the chef's tasting menu, a little pricey ($130 pp) but well worth it. Our server, Guy, was phenomenal. We will definitely go back.
This restraunt not only has a great atmosphere but the food was amazing! Christian Cho helped make my experience here truley memorable. I will definitely be back! I was blown away by the service. This restraunt is a must see.
Super good food, great wine list. But servers stand out for me!!
Roka Akor was amazing. I got he Chef Tasting Menu and tried a bit of everything, best meal I've had in months. The fish is incredibly fresh, the steak and duck are immensely flavorful and the brussels sprouts are out of this world. Truly an impressive and memorable meal.
Every morsel from the chef's complimentary shot of tomato miso soup to the appetizers, sushi and entrees was amazing. It was fun to order family style and try as much as possible. Fresh ingredients like real fresh wasabi made the experience more unique. The we came with a group of 7 and everyone ordered something different yet the kitchen was able to arrange it in an order that made sense. Completely unpretentious and just delicious Japanese inspired cuisine. We loved everything.

Nepal acceded to the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) in 1991 without any reservation. The fundamental ESC rights such as the right against discrimination, right to equality, work and favourable environment to work, social security, adequate living standard, health, education, physical and mental health, and preserve ones culture have, however, not been realised effectively. There is no effective national mechanism for remedy on the violation of ESC rights.
The state ignores the ESC rights stating that they are subjects of progressive realisation. Nepal is not a party to the Optional Protocol of the ICESCR (OP-ICESCR). This hinders implementation of the Covenant and denies one the right to seek remedy for its violation.
Programme implementation
The 38th Session of the UN Economic, Social and Cultural Committee has recommended that "..special units be established to monitor the implementation of programmes to protect and promote the full enjoyment without discrimination of their economic, social and cultural rights by disadvantaged and marginalised groups, in particular the Dalit, the Madhesi and indigenous communities, and especially women within these groups."
While noting that Nepal is a low income country and its resources are correspondingly limited, the Committee reminds the State party that it is obliged to comply with its Covenant obligations to the maximum of its available resources. In this regard, the Committee refers to the State party to its recent statement on the evaluation of the obligation to take steps to the "maximum of available resources" under an Optional Protocol to the Covenant.
The Committee also recommends that "specific mechanisms and procedures be established to monitor the implementation of such strategies and evaluate the progress achieved in combatting poverty effectively, including among the most disadvantaged and marginalised groups." This recommendation itself justifies that Nepal needs to immediately ratify OP-ICESCR to implement them.
The Interim Constitution of Nepal, 2007 with a comprehensive catalogue of fundamental rights, and provisions for their effective protection, is the basic source of human rights. It heavily incorporates the rights set forth in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) and ICESCR. This constitutional provision has created an obligation on the State to provide a system that fully upholds, inter alia, the universally recognised basic human rights and establishes the rights of all citizens to education, health, housing, employment and food security.
It also inscribes some ESC rights in the Directive Principles and State Policies, which include provisions for positive discrimination, reservations and other forms of special support for the vulnerable or marginalised groups or communities in connection with education, health, housing, employment and food, for their empowerment, protection and development.
Article 34 of the constitution has made the establishment of a just system in all aspects of life, including economic and social advancement, as the fundamental objective of the State. Article 35 provides for state policies about raising the standards of living of people through development of education, health, transportation, housing, and employment of the people of all regions by ensuring equitable distribution of economic resources for balanced development of the country. To fulfill this state obligation, there is urgent need to intervene on the ESC rights issue in post-conflict Nepal.
Social exclusion, discrimination, violence, structural inequalities, corruption and lack of political will are among the major barriers to the realisation of ESC rights in Nepal. For many Nepalese communities, the most important constitutional reforms needed pertain to basic quality of life, including livelihood, food, water, health, housing and education. This is due to the extreme poverty and underdevelopment experienced by much of the population.
The aspirations of the Nepalese people shown in Jana Andolan II were not only for a change of government but also to strengthen a human rights culture, including economic and social justice.
Socio-economic inequalities
Nepal is currently undergoing an historic transition from a monarchy to a democratic federal republic. The elected Constituent Assembly (CA) is tasked with drafting a permanent constitution. Despite numerous challenges and obstacles, this is a time of great hope and expectation for the country. Analysts argue that the conflict in Nepal was partly rooted in the socio-economic and cultural inequalities, resulting from the states failure to ensure and protect the ESC rights.
In this manner, denial of equal access to socio-economic opportunities and development directly contributed to the armed conflict. Therefore, there is a need to immediately intervene in Nepal to promote ESC rights. For this, the Government should immediately ratify / accede to the OP-ICESCR.

I'm an admitted music snob. I have to be the first one to find the next big DJ, to download the newest releases, to call it when a song's about to explode. And being both first and correct when it comes to electronic music is no easy task. I set aside at least an hour each day browsing different downloading sites, listening to previews, and carefully selecting songs that make it into my pregame playlists.
While I bask in the glory of introducing songs to my friends first, I'm the last person who will share my sources. I've worked diligently to find the best musical downloading databases, and my lips have always been sealed when it comes to downloading and telling. But today, I'm going to let you readers in on my secrets, because I've realized it's more important to share the musical love than keep it bottled up.

Confident on the ball, picks a pass so well, breaks the play up and he's a winner.......and he has taken Everton to his heart aswell, he is definitely one of us.............My point of reference being, watch the end of the game, he walks towards the Park End, and starts lifting his arms up gesturing for the crowd to cheer the victory.....the guy is a blue.Long live Darron Gibson, the unsung hero of Goodison! :-)

Down East 2013 ©
The millions of acres that make up the woods in northern Maine hold a special allure that few other Maine destinations can truly claim: the potential for a new discovery behind every tree. Go hunting on the eastern side of Elephant Mountain outside of Greenville, as Maine Forest Service forest ranger Bruce Reed did, and you too may come across a piece of the state's history missing for fifty years.
Reed discovered an impressively intact ejection seat from a cold war-era B-52 bomber sitting on a logging road that had been defunct for decades. "I was in the area hunting with a few friends, we started following this old logging road, and I noticed this seat that was upside down," Reed says.
In 1963, nine airmen flew a B-52 over Maine to test its ability to avoid Soviet radar technology. The plane's vertical stabilizer failed and sent the jet spiraling into the woods outside Greenville. Three men were able to eject in time. One died hitting a tree, while two others survived the night in negative twenty-eight degree weather until a group of snowmobilers rescued them.
Until Reed's discovery, only two of the ejection seats had been found, with the third going undetected by both Soviet radar and all of Maine. One can wonder then, should Reed choose to go a little deeper into the dense woods next hunting season, what forgotten pieces of Maine's history he'll emerge with next time. —Will Bleakley

Given the constant and overwhelming media frenzy surrounding Michael Jackson's untimely death, I was less than eager to see "This Is It." But less than five minutes into this amazing documentary, my adrenaline was pumping so profusely, I found it impossible to sit still. Director Kenny Ortega manages to capture the genius behind this phenomenal performer — perhaps the greatest musical talent ever.
Assembled from hundreds of hours of rehearsal footage (shot between April and June) for his upcoming concert tour, the film is startling. Having been barraged with reports of MJ's failing health, I expected to witness a frail, unsteady and out-of-it former icon. Instead, the 50-year-old Jackson is totally at the top of his game, in superb physical condition and so energetic that he out dances even the youngest of his co-workers.
Ortega focuses on Jackson's control over every aspect of the creative process. His obsession with perfection leads to frustration over minute details but never in an angry or condescending manner. It's abundantly clear that Jackson is a kind, humble, completely centered individual. And his passion is infectious; everyone who's working with this man has a smile on his or her face. They love this guy.
"This Is It," the tour, would have been mind blowing. Not satisfied with just singing and dancing, Jackson and Ortega whip up some ingenious special effects. Mini movies, one which is Jackson interacting with Rita Hayworth and Humphrey Bogart in "Gilda" are killer cool. An addendum to the "Thriller" video is even, dare I say, better than the original. Also included is rare rehearsal footage of classic Jackson Five tunes ("I'll Be There" and "I Want You Back").
The team of Don Brochu, Brandon Key, Tim Patterson and Kevin Stitt do an extraordinary job of editing, which contributes to the film's pulsating pace. And I'd be remiss in not mentioning the unbelievable guitar work of Orianthi Panagaris who's told by MJ, "It's your turn to shine." And, wow, is it. She is as hip and sexy as her boss.
Admittedly, I had a lump in my throat for the entire 112 glorious minutes that "This Is It" occupied. Michael Jackson changed the way we perceived music on so many levels. His talent was unparalleled. He was loved by so many people around the world, including me. Thank you, Michael.
