L. Woods Tap and Pine Lodge
Online Reservations
We had 8:15 pm reservations, seated on time with nice booth, service was great and timely, creating a perfect evening for catching up with good friends. Thanks for a great experience
I've been going to L Woods for a long time and nothing beats their beef ribs, brisket sandwich, and prime rib on Saturday nights. The beer selection is kind of limited but I guess they make up for it in food. All I can say is keep up the good work.
We had a really wonderful server. The food was great, as usual
Went with a group of 6. We all left satisfied and happy! Everything was delicious and our waitress was beyond attentive.
Great food, good service, and wide food selections. Reservations are a must because it's always crowded. Avoid dining between 6 and 7 because even with a reservation you usually wait but it's worth it. The onion soup is great. Not overly salty like many places serve.
Enjoyed our evening at L. Woods. Food and service was great.
Saturday is prime rib night, great flavor, cooked perfectly. Don't miss it.
We always ask our children where they want to go for their birthday dinner and inevitably they always, ALWAYS choose L Woods. The servers there are always very friendly and accommodating. It's a great place for groups!
French onion soup was delicious. Salad was fresh. Skirt steak was a generous portion and when asked to cook my food with no salt they did this without error (which isn't always the case at many restaurants!). The salmon was delicious, as well. Garlic mashed potatoes are very garlicy. Have been here several times and will continue to come back.
We were a party of nine and a little disappointed that we could not get a round table. However, they were able to accomodate us in a smaller room which cut down signifacantly on the noise facter. Of course, the timing of our reservation (8:30 pm) also meant that the noise level diminished as the evening wore on. The wide range of items to select from meant that everyone was able to find something they wanted. And everyone enjoyed their meals!
The food was well prepared and the restaurant was busy on a Tuesday night which always is a good indicator of a well run establishment.
I went for my birthday for the second time and ordered the salmone. It was a little dosappointing because it was SO salty! I tried my brothers ribs and they were amazing. I wish they would've made the salmone a little less salty.... It wasn't cheap either. Salmone was $23 but it didn't even taste good. Wish I would've gotten something else on the menu. Overall great service, the waiter was a bit dry without a sense of humor. But he still did his job with no errors!
Good service and great ribs! Always a great place to go to and have a good meal. I have had several different dinners and always have been satisfied.
Recently celebrated my wife Birthday at L Woods. Very reliable. Updated specials and craft beer list a pleasant surprise. Desert over the top. Service was great.
Have had not so great experiences with the parmesan crusted filet in the past. Jose assured me this time would be different....and it was. Thanks for the great food and service!
have eaten here several times before and always have high quality meal. has a lot of hearty fare and good variety for all diners. Also good beer and drink selection available. The service on this visit was a bit slow despite the fact that the restaurant wasn't full... they will need to work on that issue. That being said the wait staff was very polite and was aware of the issue. And on previous visits didn't have the same service issues. would recommend this spot.
I just moved up to Skokie & have been wanting to try this place for awhile. Honestly it is fabulous!! The Autumn Harvest Chowder was so yummy Iḿ craving more now!! Very happy with the place. Atmosphere was fun; kind of a cross between a log cabin & old school 1930ś steakhouse. Definitely will be going back!!
everything was great! service was amazing and the food was delicious. it was a good spot for a low key birthday celebration.
We were visiting with our grandson. All 3 of our meals were delicious. Afterwards we could sit and talk as long as we liked.
Great spot for getting together with a group. We all shared great onion strings and a had a variety of items for dinner. We will go back.
Our waiter was so accommodating. He allowed us to sit and kept our ice tea full as my friend and I caught up after not seeing each other for a LONG time. He was understanding in that we did not want to order for awhile, which we greatly appreciated. When our food arrived it was delicious. I had the salad of the day with roasted pears and added salmon which was great.
This is a wonderful restaurant. It is everything you go out to eat for. The food is just plain delicious-always. Service is perfect. A wisconsin supper club, sure, the decor works for that vibe. I don't drink and can't comment on the bar scene, but imo, a bar scene is comprised of the kind of people one wants to hang in a bar. If you are older, you want older, etc. The physical setting can't really attract or repel certain age groups, or maybe it can! It's good if local workers have lunch or apres and no one knows how to attract clientele like leye does. They are just the best. Even at Maggiano's in Skokie, there are cuties at the bar. Cuties at the bar-that's the key!
All of our friends, who can be quite critical, loved their dinner at L. Woods and our waitress was very indulgent of our special requests. This is always a favorite place to meet our friends.
The nice thing about going to LWoods is they are pretty consistent, i had a steak sandwhich and my husband had our favorite the baby back ribs....it was crowded as usual but since we had reservations we were seated within 15 minutes and the food is always good and you can count on good service always. We will keep coming back.
I usually love this restaurant. We had a very non-attentive waitress this time.
We had a booth. Felt comfortable and cozy. Food was delicious. Waiter gave us an overview since our first time. Absolutely would come again.
The food was outstanding as always. Consistently excellent food and service.
Similar to most restaurants in the Lettuce Entertain You group, service and food were both good. It was also VERY crowded. Even with a reservation, we had a short wait.
Loved the variety of "Old Fashioned" cocktails. The beer menu was extensive without being overwhelming. Food was delicious. We called the restaurant on the way to tell them we hit unexpected traffic and were about 5 to 7 minutes away. Not only did they hold our table for us but they sat the other half of our party for us. We were led through the restaurant to our table where our friends had been seated and were greeted warmly by our server. She was attentive, yet never rushed us even though the place was packed to the gills (pun intended) and had many people waiting. We will definitely return.
Had another great burger here! Hubby wanted prime rib, but that was gone by the time we got there. Will keep that in mind for next time and grab an earlier reservation. Otherwise great experience & even bumped into our neighbors there who were celebrating a birthday with their family.
we enjoyed the brisket nachos, prime rib, filet and turkey meatloaf, topped off by the chocolate gooey cake with homemade whipped cream (even though we were all stuffed). everything was made exactly as ordered and arrived at a comfortable pace-we didn't feel rushed and didn't wait too long. will be back on a Sunday to try the fried chicken.
This is our go-to restaurant for food that taste as good as "mom makes." The food is consistently good and there are enough choices for even the pickiest eater. We tried the crown pork roast and BBQ meat loaf this time and both were fabulous! I hope they become permanent menu items.
L Woods is our "go-to" restaurant when family comes into town. The Wisconsin lodge feel and amazing food never disappoints. We also like to pick up the fried chicken dinner on Sundays for family dinner at home. One of our fave places for sure!
L Woods serves traditional American fare---ribs, steaks, fish (with a Midwest accent) in a neighborhood that specializes in ethnic restaurants. I really enjoy the barbequed beef ribs. Ambience and atmosphere are friendly. We typically see many large groups. It is quite popular. But not too noisy. You should make a reservation.
We love L. Woods! This is the classic supper club with generous portions of comfort food. Fish, ribs, steaks are all good. Fried chicken is buttermilk dipped. Excellent soups everyday. Dine in or carry out...never disappoints. Make a reservation. You will need it! And wait times for Back of the Woods (carry out) can be lengthy, especially on Sunday. Dining room can be a little noisy if houbara looking for a quiet evening or conversation. Great for lunch too.
Not only was the food excellent, but so was the service and their speciality drinks. I will be going back often!
Best place to find lake perch close to my house. Food and service are warm and delicious, make reservations, though. They are not as welcoming to walk-ins.
You know what to expect when coming to this restaurant. The food and service are always very good. The noise level is rather high so you have expect it when it is crowded, which it usually is.
I was all set to order my favorite meal there when I thought I would give their special a try - BBQ Turkey Meatloaf. Let's just say I have a new favorite meal now!
Very good supper club food and service was excellent. Had 630 reservation and was seated right away in a booth. Food for four of us had nice variety, steak, seafood, kids Mac and cheese, and chocolate cake was the bomb.
I enjoyed everything abou this place with one exception and that would be the portions. I love BBQ food and traditionally their are big portions with your meal. The taste was excellent, really good customer service and good atmosphere.
I hadn't been to L. Woods in a few years so since I was in the neighborhood, I stopped in. The food & service was as good as I remembered. Excellent ribs & BBQ chicken. I hope to return again soon.
We had a nice family meal - good food, hot and tasty. However, very unusual - our server wasn't all that! He was short and actually walked away while we were talking. This was very very unusual for L Woods.
The perfect place to meet up with friends to gab and eat good tasting food. Our waiter Jason was outstanding in his attention and advice. Only suggestion is to strip the tables and refirnish as they are not attractive.
We eat at L Woods frequently because the menu is large so that everyone can find something they like. The ribs are outstanding and my husband loves the skirt steak. Its a great place to meet friends for dinner or lunch. You can talk and enjoy good food served well and at the right temperature.
This is a comfortable restaurant with a warm ambience. The food - we had ribs and salmon - was excellent and the wait service was friendly and attentive. A perfect place for good cocktails, excellent food and a hospitable atmosphere. Be sure to make reservations so you don't miss out on this neighborhood gem! I would definitely return again.
It is amazing how they maintain the quality of this restaurant over the many years it has been open. Once again our meal was terrific. You cannot miss with the salads, flat breads, and the assorted entrees and sandwiches. My personal favorite is the chopped steak because of the complexity of the seasoning and presentation. If you would enjoy the "supper club" ambiance in Chicago's near north suburbs, go to L.Woods! You will not regret the choice.
Ribs were very good (tender-chewy as opposed to fall-off-the-bone moist). Sauce both smoky and sweet. Apple strudel was delicious & flaky.
Have gone to L.Woods many times and it's always been wonderful and Wednesday night was no exception. The reservations I had made were honored immediately. The service was very good and the food was delicious. I liked the fries but others in our party wished they had regular fries without seasoning. Two of us had the baby back ribs, one had the beef ribs which I tasted and was excellent. The 4th person had the skirt steak which looked and tasted delicious. All in all it was a lovely evening. We did go early and by the time we left the place was packed. Looking forward to our next visit.
A great meal again. And or waiter Dameon was excellent.

Why we're fat: Simple question with many complex answers
By Marni Jameson McClatchy-Tribune News Service
The Paducah Sun

McClatchy-Tribune News Service
ORLANDO, Fla. — What's making Americans so fat?
Many think the answer is that we eat too much and don't exercise enough, but the reasons are more numerous and complex, say obesity researchers. And so are the solutions.
In the early 1970s, 14 percent of the adult population was considered obese, compared with 34 percent today. What's happened since then?
During the next four days, local and national obesity experts will weigh in with their theories. We'll serve up reasons we're fat — and what you can do about them.
This list explores what we eat.
The Food Pyramid: Established 30 years ago by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Food Pyramid led directly to the increased consumption of refined carbohydrates _ a leading cause of obesity, say nutritional scientists. Wrongly accused, dietary fat was placed at the tiny tip of the pyramid, which pointed Americans toward eating more carbohydrates; a recommended seven daily servings of cereal, bread, pasta and the like sat at the base of the pyramid. Though the government has modified its stance and today promotes the My Plate guidelines, with far fewer carbohydrates, the die was cast, and the trouble began.
Fat phobia: As Americans reacted to the avoid-fat message, fat-free and reduced-fat products flooded store shelves. The consumption of sugar _ a carbohydrate _ skyrocketed. Sodas were fat-free, so Americans began to tank up. "The country's big low-fat message backfired," says Dr. Frank Hu, professor of nutrition and epidemiology at the Harvard School of Public Health. "The overemphasis on reducing fat caused the consumption of carbohydrates and sugar in our diets to soar. That shift may be linked to the biggest health problems in America today."
n Carb consumption: Americans, on average, eat 250 to 300 grams of carbs a day, accounting for about 55 percent of their caloric intake. The most conservative recommendations today say they should eat half that amount. Some recommend far fewer. "If Americans could eliminate sugary beverages, potatoes, white bread, pasta, white rice and sugary snacks, we would wipe out almost all the problems we have with weight and diabetes and other metabolic diseases," says Dr. Walter Willett, chairman of the department of nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health.
Dietary carbs convert to sugar in the blood and stimulate insulin, which moves sugar into cells, where it's stored as fat. "Over time, as our bodies get tired of processing high loads of carbs and insulin, which evolution didn't prepare us for, cells become more resistant to insulin," says Dr. Stephen Phinney, a nutritional biochemist and an emeritus professor at the University of California, Davis, who has studied carbohydrates for 30 years. Insulin resistance leads to obesity, diabetes and other metabolic disorders.
n Sugar consumption: "Sucrose and high-fructose corn syrup very likely contribute to insulin resistance," says Gary Taubes, science writer and author of "Why We Get Fat." "The more resistant your tissues are to insulin, the more you move calories into your fat tissues, causing you to burn less and store more." Most Americans consume three times more sugar than the USDA currently recommends.
n The nature of fat: Like a tumor, fat tissue wants to grow, Taubes says. "It has an agenda of its own, and will grab available energy first." To expand, fat tissue snares the energy available from what you eat. This explains why the fat get fatter. Driving that agenda are hormones, mainly insulin and leptin.
n Cheap food: Our food supply has become more plentiful, more varied and a lot cheaper, says Dr. Steve Smith, an obesity expert and scientific director of Sanford-Burnham Translational Research Institute for Metabolism and Diabetes, in Orlando. As a percentage of income, Americans spend 75 percent less on food today than they did in the 1960s.
n Calorie consumption: Today, Americans eat on average 300 more calories a day than they did in 1985, and 600 more than in 1970, according to the USDA.
n Bigger portions: Americans value two-for-one and super-sized products. Marketers know that, and have realized that amping up portions of cheap food is an inexpensive way to attract customers. Hence the 44-ounce Super Gulp. Twenty years ago, the average bagel was 3 inches wide and 140 calories; today it's 6 inches and 350 calories, according to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. Consumers still count the inflated bagel as one serving, though it's closer to three. Research shows that people eat more if more is presented to them.
n Fewer breast-fed babies: Children who are breast-fed have lower rates of obesity, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics, which, along with many other health organizations, recommends exclusive breast-feeding for the first six months of life. However, according to the CDC's 2010 Breastfeeding Report Card, only 13 percent of American mothers breast-feed exclusively through six months.
n What can we do about it? Start by modifying your diet to match the government's My Plate Guidelines, which recommend filling half your plate with fruits and vegetables, about a quarter with lean protein and a quarter with complex carbohydrates. Eliminate sugary sodas, sweets and refined starches, and be more mindful of portion sizes. Eat more foods from the land, and fewer from a box.

Survey of Energy Resources 2007
Natural Gas Country Notes
Proved recoverable reserves (bcm) |

Most of Saudi Arabia's proved reserves and production of natural gas are in the form of associated gas derived from oil fields, although a number of sources of non-associated gas have been discovered. In total, proved reserves of gas
(6 848 bcm, according to OAPEC) rank as the third largest in the Middle East. Other published sources quote essentially the same level.
Output of natural gas has advanced fairly steadily for more than twenty years. A significant factor in increasing the utilisation of Saudi Arabia's gas resources has been the operation of the gas-processing plants set up under the Master Gas System, which was inaugurated in the mid-1980s. These plants produce large quantities of ethane and LPG, which are used within the country as petrochemical feedstock; a high proportion of LPGs is exported. The main consumers of dry natural gas (apart from the gas industry itself) are power stations, desalination plants and petrochemical complexes.

Tools for auditing and securing cloud systems
Golden Images
Tools like OpenSCAP and Aqueduct can make life much easier when implementing cloud security standards.
One thing I love about cloud computing is being able to deploy a dozen or more systems with the click of a button. Testing and deploying larger scale systems has never been so easy. Additionally, I don't have to deal with hardware failures. Rather than driving out to the location at 2am to fix a dead server, I simply launch a new instance, or stop and start an instance, which on many cloud providers results in the use of a new physical server. Two clicks and a two-minute wait versus driving downtown at 2am is not a hard choice to make (especially in a Canadian winter). Also, I can turn off and stop paying for unneeded servers, which my accountant approves of.

Kasich glad wild-animal ban is OK'd
• Ban new ownership of specific wild animals, including big cats, bears, hyenas, gray wolves, some primates, alligators and crocodiles. People who already own these animals can keep them as long as they obtain permits and follow other rules.
• Require owners of restricted species to obtain liability insurance or surety bonds for $200,000 to $1 million.
• Mandate criminal-background checks of current exotic-animal owners seeking permits.
The Daily Briefing
Buckeye Forum Podcast
The Dispatch public affairs team talks politics and tackles state and federal government issues in the Buckeye Forum podcast.
Your Right to Know
State Rep. Terry Boose, left, listens to Rep. Brian Hill speak in support of the exotic-animal regulations. Boose, R-Norwalk, voted against the bill yesterday.
An exotic-animals law is on its way to Gov. John Kasich seven months after Ohio made headlines worldwide when dozens of tigers, bears and other wild creatures were released and had to be killed.
The Ohio House voted 87-9 yesterday to approve Senate Bill 310. A few hours later, the Senate OK'd changes in the bill by a 31-0 vote, sending it to Kasich, who has said he will be " proud to be signing this bill into law."
Sen. Troy Balderson, R-Zanesville, the sponsor of the measure, called it "a great step forward for public safety."
Not everyone agreed. In the House, a handful of lawmakers voted against the bill, including Rep. Terry Boose, R-Norwalk, who said it gives "a false sense of safety to Ohio."
Boose said the bill "takes away property rights," discriminates against poor people who can't afford the fees and insurance it requires and lacks teeth to make it work.
The legislation was sparked by the escape last fall of more than four dozen wild animals owned by Terry W. Thompson of Zanesville. Thompson set free his menagerie and then killed himself. Most of the animals were killed by law-enforcement authorities to protect the public.
In a statement released after the votes, Kasich said that although there was no loss of human life in the Zanesville incident, "next time we might not be so lucky ... which is why I committed to doing everything we can to prevent a 'next time.' "
The ban on acquisition, sale and breeding of restricted species would take effect 90 days after the measure is signed. Mandatory registration of exotic wild animals would kick in by the end of this year.
By Oct. 1, 2013, owners would have to obtain a permit and pay a fee to the Ohio Department of Agriculture. As of Jan. 1, 2014, owners without permits could have their animals seized through local humane societies.
Owners can continue to keep, breed and acquire snakes shorter than 10 feet long, although those on the restricted list must be registered with the state.
Yesterday's vote followed 15 hours of public hearings of the House Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee during which 80 witnesses testified. Rep. David Hall, R-Millersburg, chairman of the committee, said lawmakers took the bill seriously because of the kind of animals involved.
"They're not like a dog bite," he said. "These are things that can hurt you."
Hall conceded, "We're not going to make everyone happy." But he said the final bill was the result of Democrats and Republicans, including the governor, working together.
Three groups that protect animals — the Humane Society of the United States, Born Free USA and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals — said in a statement that passage of the law "ends Ohio's status as a free-for-all state for private ownership of dangerous wild animals."
Ohio has been one of seven states that have no restrictions on private ownership of exotic animals.
Lawmakers last night put $500,000 into a separate bill to cover start-up costs for the new exotic-animals program. Full House and Senate votes on that bill are likely today.

The Bulls won all six singles matches to claim the victory. Damien David recorded his fourth win of the spring season with three-set victory over Max Vogt in the number two singles match. The pair split tiebreakers in the opening two sets before David, the 2012 MAC Newcomer of the Year, rallied for a 6-1 win in the deciding set. David also teamed with Akhil Mehta at first doubles for an 8-6 win over Ernesto Arguello and Juan Gonzalez-Paz in UB's lone doubles triumph.

With his win on Saturday, Hove moved past Fery Kasiman (1999-2003) for third place on UB's all-time singles win list with 65 and his 109 combined victories now ties him for sixth on the all-time list with Mike Proulx (1993-97).
"This weekend was a great test for us. We came out on Friday and played the most complete match I have ever been a part of for this program against Colgate," said UB head coach Lee Nickell. "Today we were out-coached, but our guys stepped up and overcame a very good Bryant squad who was firing on all cylinders. Our goal as a coaching staff now is to tighten up our doubles play and continue to stress fast starts in both singles and doubles as we prepare to play Penn."
The Bulls travel to Philadelphia on Sunday, February 3 to take on the Ivy League's Quakers at 2:00 pm.

Toledo Downed by Fourth-Ranked Ohio State on Sunday Night, 4-0
COLUMBUS, OH - Toledo lost to No. 4 Ohio State on Sunday night by a final count of 4-0. Play was stopped inside the OSU Varsity Tennis Courts once the Buckeyes clinched the match with the fourth point.
"I think we're getting tougher," UT Head Coach Al Wermer said. "We have to improve in every spot and I know we will, but it's a process, and the more hard matches we endure, the more we learn to fight back together."
The Rockets fell behind early in singles competition and could not register a winning set against the Bucks. Sophomore Grant Adams played the closest match at the No. 3 slot, losing 5-7 to Connor Smith in the first set before being cut off during the second.
Sophomore Nicky Wong kept the No. 4 singles match competitive as well, playing Ille Van Engelen to the tune of 3-6, 2-3 before also being stopped in the second set.
The Midnight Blue & Gold were also swept in doubles play. UT's two seniors Bryant Dudzik and Terence Weigand were taken down at the No. 2 position, 4-8.
With the loss, Toledo's record drops to 5-3 overall.
UT will travel to Youngstown State on Friday, Feb. 1 for a Noon matchup against the Penguins.

Rockets Split Pair of Saturday Home Matches
TOLEDO, OH - Toledo (5-3) split a pair of matches on its homecourt Saturday. The Rockets dropped an early match to Binghamton in a close contest inside the Shadow Valley Tennis Club, 4-3. UT rebounded though with a 7-0 sweep of Northwestern Ohio in the nightcap at the Shadow Valley Club at Central.
"Doubles is starting to look a lot better for us," UT Head Coach Al Wermer said. "We need to learn how to compete at every spot, on every court, in every match. The season is a process and we're not a final product yet. I know we're going to continue to improve through every weekend and I'm looking forward to that."
The Rockets didn't lose a doubles match on the day while keeping the same lineup in both matches. Sophomores Tomas Stillman and Nicky Wong held down the No. 1 position with an 8-6 win over Binghamton and narrowly passed by UNOH 8-7.
Seniors Bryant Dudzik and Terence Weigand filled the No. 2 spot and won by a score of 8-3 over UNOH. Their doubles match versus Binghamton went unfinished with the score tied at six.
Transfer Francisco Stuardo picked up his first doubles victory with sophomore Grant Adams. The duo defeated Binghamton's No. 3 pair, 8-4, and then came back later on to defeat UNOH by the same margin.
In singles play, Binghamton took four matches over Toledo. Stuardo and Wong collected the only victories at the No. 2 and No. 4 spots by winning in straight sets - 6-4, 6-4.
Each Rocket won in straight sets over the UNOH lineup. Stillman, Adams and Weigand filled the top three spots, while sophomore Roberto Meza, junior Ben Brocker and Dudzik closed out the lineup.
UT improves to 5-3 on the season and will be right back in action on Sunday night in Columbus, OH. The Rockets are set to challenge No. 4 Ohio State at 7:00 p.m.

Western Michigan:
Broncos Down IPFW, but Fall to Green Bay
KALAMAZOO, Mich. - The Western Michigan men's tennis team split a pair of contests at West Hills Athletic Club on Friday, defeating IPFW 7-0 in the opener before falling in a 4-3 heartbreaker to UW-Green Bay in the nightcap. With the day's results, the Broncos' record moves to 3-2 on the season.
The Broncos earned the win over the Mastodons thanks to an exciting doubles session, followed by a dominant performance in singles play against the Mastodons. Stephen Payne and Jim Beckwith opened doubles play with an 8-4 win in the No. 3 doubles match, but IPFW would counter with a tiebreaker victory in the No. 2 doubles match to even the score. The doubles point came down to a tiebreaker in the final match on the court, as the pairing of Nadin Indre and Ruben Greiner held off Daniel Kang and Joao Freitas 8-7 (5) to clinch the point.
Compared to the stressful doubles session, the singles play went rather quickly, as the Broncos controlled the tempo from the outset and quickly clinched the match win. Greinger beat Connor Andrews 6-3, 6-2 to give the Broncos a 2-0 edge, and Pablo Mora's No. 5 singles win over Freitas gave the Broncos a commanding 3-0 advantage. Andrew Cahn clinched the team victory for the Broncos with a 6-3, 6-2 win over Gerard Guell in the No. 4 match.

Match Notes
Order of finish: Doubles (3,2,1); Singles (2,5,4,3,1,6)
Aaron Wong earned the win in the No. 3 singles match with a 6-4, 6-2 win over Andres Cobos, Ross VanderPloeg dominated the second set in a 6-3, 6-1 win over Daniel Kang, and Michael Treis rounded out the scoring with a 6-2, 6-4 win over Martin Maudi in the No. 6 singles match.
The match against the Phoenix did not start out the way the Broncos had hoped, with Green Bay sweeping doubles play to start the match and take the opening point. Two Bronco pairings - VanderPloeg and Cahn, as well as Shideler and Stephen Payne - pushed their counterparts to the tiebreakers at 7-7, but neither was able to complete their respective comebacks.
Indre tied the team match up quickly in singles play, though, dominating Erik Finkenbrink 6-2, 6-0 in the No. 1 singles match. Cahn followed up with a victory as well, controlling the temp against Howard Scott in the first set of the No. 6 singles match before holding on in the second to win 6-0, 7-6 (5). The Phoenix took the next two points to take a 3-2 lead, but Greiner came back from a set down to beat Rowan Isaaks 1-6, 6-4, 6-1 in the No. 4 singles match to tie the score. Pablo Mora battled with Leopold Islinger in the second set of the No. 5 singles match, trying to force a third set, but Islinger staved off Mora to win 6-4, 7-6 (5).

Well I don't know about you guys, but I love ice cream, and since I live in the midwest it is almost impossible to stay away from in the summer because of the freakin heat and humidity. And after some time on a gluten free diet I ran across a couple recipes that make a pretty good substitute.
What you need
3 bananas
Peanut butter (I use natural pb)
I use soy milk but regular is fine too
1. First take the bananas and slice them pretty thin, about 1/2 pieces
2. Then place them on a plate, or tray in the freezer for 3-4 hours
3. Get out your blender and put the bananas in with app 1/2 cup milk
4. Blend the Bananas and Milk until you get a soft serve texture
5. Add however much PB you want
6. Add app 1/2tsp of cinnamon
7. Blend again until ingredients are blended through
8. I personally prefer to freeze mine longer at this point, but if you like soft serve try some. Also if you let it freeze a little longer I think the flavors are more pronounced
I dig this stuff and I think it is a great substitute to the real thing, and you can do it with over fruits too like strawberries and stuff.
We have made some pretty good stuff since the mercury has been rising with no relief in site.
This stuff is actually good for you too, you are getting the protein and vitamins from the banana and your fooling your senses.

Any suggestions?

Recipe by Heinzitup.com
"This easy and flavourful salad is perfect for a hearty lunch or a light dinner."
Watch video tips and tricks
1/4 cup Heinz Tomato Ketchup
3 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons brown sugar
8 cups lightly packed mesclun salad greens
2 (7.5 ounce) cans canned salmon, skin and bones removed
1 cup thinly sliced carrot
1 cup thinly sliced cucumber
1/4 cup sliced radish
1/4 cup lightly packed cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
I pretty much made this recipe as the directions indicated and my husband & I were pleased with the way it turned out. The dressing is unexpectedly delicious, I'll be using the leftovers to marinate shrimp for tomorrow's dinner. I think the only thing that I was disappointed in was the texture (kind of slimy), but that may have been a result of how thinly I sliced all the vegetables. I think next time I'll add fresh pineapple (though, on second thought it may overpower it) and maybe some almond slivers or soy beans to add more crunch. All in all, a very flavorful salad that we'll make our own. BTW, we paired it with spring rolls to make it a heartier, albeit, fresh, dinner.
Easy to make and a great summer salad.
7 Ratings
easy. flavorful. different. LOVED it!
Absolutely delicious! The dressing had such a unique flavor that I had to make another batch to pour over the already delicious tasting salad. The fish and veggies were a perfect combination for a side dish salad.
This is a go-to salad for us. We make the dressing as-is, but we add about 1/2 tbsp of soy sauce for just a little extra salt/flavor kick. We sub the lime juice with lemon juice (whatever is available), and the greens can be subbed with any lettuce you have on hand. If salmon is hard to come by (ick, canned salmon??), some Costco's carry Salmon Patties that we like to grill up and use in various salad recipes. Or even grilling some chicken (salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and a glaze of the teriyaki sauce + honey at the end) = really tasty!

| Re: Lovecraftian Cinema With Rosemary's Baby, you forget one of the lines in dialogue: "God is dead! All hail Satan!" Judeo-christian concept of evil is a motif used in an existential nightmare. There's nothing optimistic in this film which you must notice in Lovecraft, there wasn't anything optimistic in his tales. Suspiria is more of a fairy tale like that of Brothers Grimm. There's a little bit of M.R. James and Blackwood with its elemental terrors sprinkled with light and shadow. I only said it's slightly Lovecraftian at the ending where the Jessica Harper character came out laughing. Now, is she going slightly insane or was she just happy she's alive? It's hard to say. Black Sunday springs immediately to mind "Dreams Of the Witch House", where the witch craved immortality by transforming into something not human. It is slightly LeFanu, where the writer is a legends & folklore type of guy with his stories. I don't agree that there was an M.R. James' presence in it. I think there's a definite Poe in this one. Poe's influence is strongly felt in Lovecraft's fiction. If you're thinking that standard story is that a witch or wizard tries to bring about a monster or an alien type demon that would spell the end of the world and someone tries to thwart the mad plans. That's not necessarily Lovecraft. Maybe in Cthulhu Mythos stories but certainly not Lovecraft. |

| Re: Lovecraftian Cinema Quote:
As for the Poe connection... I'm not really seeing a great deal of that, either, unless it be "Ligeia", and even then quite loosely. Or are you referring to a general atmosphere of Poe -- in which case I'd argue that this is much more a mark of the late Gothic and the Romantic writers of the time, rather than exclusively Poe. Wonderful film though... very well sustained atmosphere. | ||

| Re: Lovecraftian Cinema That "God is dead" part was sort of a quote from Fredrich Neitzche's. Lovecraft's stories were often scarier when you take away the existence of God in the stories. Same went for Rosemary's Baby. With God being "dead", the tale gets bleaker in the outcome with malevolent entities that are not here for Mankind's benefit. As for the witch of Black Sunday and the witch in "Dreams Of the Witch House", maybe "achieving immortality" is the not exactly the right objective to describe what these two were trying to do. Yet they are similar in character. The one in Black Sunday was killed twice. As for the witch in "Dreams", I gotta reread that one. My memory's a bit hazy. I do, however, think their objective was for revenge. Why else would they come back? As for Poe, it's the gothic atmosphere in the likes of Pit & The Pendulum and Fall Of the House of Usher, not necessarily in plot. Poe did have influence on the later gothics. Gothic is a genre that started back in the early nineteenth century and Poe was part of that century. The Romantics influencing Bava's film? I dunno. I doubt it. |

As for the witch in the Bava film (whose name, by the way, is Asa) and Keziah Mason (she of "The Dreams in the Witch House") -- while there are some very loose similarities, they are really poles apart. Asa is a fully human witch, driven by human passions; while with Keziah we never really have an indication of her motivations, save for brief bursts of anger against Gilman when he does something that threatens what she's doing at the time. And she doesn't "return" -- she moves in and out of our part of (or dimension of) spacetime according to either some alien rhythm (hinted at, perhaps, in the descriptions of the cycles and rhythms in hyperspace) or at her own whim; but she has evidently been around that house periodically ever since her original life was interrupted by being hauled off and tried for witchcraft in the late 17th century. There is no indication of any kind of revenge motif going on there, as there is no one in the tale connected to Keziah or her past in any way. As for Poe having an influence on the later Gothics... actually, this would be the other way around. The first acknowledged Gothic novel was published in 1765; by the time Poe's writing began to be published (the late 1820s), it was nearly spent, with only a handful (at most) of the Gothics to come. Even "the greatest as well as the last of the Goths", Melmoth the Wanderer, had been published before Poe's first tale ("Metzengerstein", itself something of a send-up of the Gothic genre) saw print. Poe himself was heavily influenced by much of the Gothic paraphernalia and mood -- especially an interesting take on the Burkean sublime, which formed one of the philosophical foundations for the Gothic movement -- but he was perhaps even more heavily influenced by the translations of the German Schaueromantik or such writers as Hoffmann, as well as Edward Bulwer-Lytton, who was very highly regarded by Poe, Mary Shelley, Dickens, etc., though he is largely ignored or denigrated today (more so than is deserved, I'd say). | |

| Re: Lovecraftian Cinema Well, I keep getting confusing impressions with this one.... Here's the latest video for Cthulhu: The Movie: CTHULHU - the movie trailer from here! Films and Regent Releasing And, if what they're posting is accurate, Joshi himself seems to have thought well of this one, and it won awards in the Eerie Film Festival and the Lovecraft Film Festival.... It does look like it has possibilities, after all.... |

| Re: Lovecraftian Cinema Pre-orders??? That one has been available for some time from Lurker films.... Here's the link: Lurker Films—Lovecraft, Cthulhu, Poe, Weird Tales, Movies, FIlms, DVDs It's an interesting take on the tale, but a bit shakier than earlier entries in the series, in my opinion. Still, I support the efforts because these filmmakers are trying very conscientiously to walk that line between slavishly following text and doing something genuinely creative with it... and I'm glad to see so many small filmmakers, especially amateurs, putting out such serious efforts; as an amateur himself, HPL is likely to have approved of the intent and the spirit, if not always the result.... |

| Re: Lovecraftian Cinema Did anyone think that Cloverfield had Lovecraftian themes? It seemed to me that it was one of the old ones that had awoken and risen from the depths and wreaking havoc in New York city? At least it could be interpreted in that way, right? Or is it just me reading seeing what I want to see? |

| Re: Lovecraftian Cinema I'm amazed nobody's mentioned Hellboy yet. The ending in particular, featuring tentacled elder gods breaking through to our dimension from space, was pure Lovecraft. World of Warcraft features a giant tentacled boss called C'Thon in one of its many dungeons. |

Knivesout no more | Re: Lovecraftian Cinema Has anyone mentioned MESSIAH OF EVIL on this thread? It was a 70s film, made I think by the people who later did the SWAMP THING movie. It follows the investigations of a young woman whose artist father has been off the radar for a while. She goes to the small seaside town where he has been living and painting, to find he seems to have vanished altogether leaving bizarre paintings all over his house there (these are very well executed, a wonderful mix of hyper-realism and surrrealism) and records of his descent into horror. The movie is mildly incoherent at times, with an opening sequence that has no connection to the rest of the story, and it does descend into zombie-movie style cliche at the end, but for a while there it's a great 70s-tinged take on a decidedly Lovecraftian creepy-little-town-hiding-ancient-curses theme. One of Roger Corman's Poe adaptations was actually a Lovecraft adaptation. I'd have loved to have seen Vincent Price essay more Lovecraftian roles. I can just see him as the ghoulish painter, Pickman. |

And, while this isn't an adaptation of any of his fiction, the new documentary, Lovecraft: Fear of the Unknown, has been released on DVD and Blu-ray just last week; all the reviews I've seen of this one have been quite positive: Lovecraft - Fear of the Unknown Unfortunately, even though I ordered it well in advance, Amazon either didn't get their copies, or didn't get enough of them, as mine has been delayed (I hope for not too long a period).... | ||

Presented to: Jeffrey Needle
The Association for Mormon Letters presents an Award in Review for 2001 to Jeffrey Needle for his collected book reviews appearing on AML-List: An Email List of Mormon Literature (reviews available through the AML-List Archives.).
"How then shall they read the books of which they have not heard?"
Reviewers play an important, and largely unsung, role in the life of a literary community. This is true not only of those who voice judgments of new works, but equally of those who reach back into the past, bringing to our remembrance a knowledge of what has gone before. In so doing, they serve as our collective memory, allowing us to build bridges across time to our half-forgotten literary forebears.
Jeff Needle provides an outstanding example of just such service. Over the past five years, this self-described Jewish Protestant with a sympathetic interest in "all things Mormon" has published over 70 reviews for AML-List -- 23 in 2001 alone. His choices have spanned the range from doctrinal works to Mormon history, historical fiction, detective novels with Mormon settings, biography, and more. New and old, well-known and obscure; all have come under his roving reading and reviewing eye.
Jeff brings to his reviews a careful concern for accuracy, clear sense of plot, and finely tuned sensitivity to authorial style. He consistently, and charitably, recounts authors' successes, while with soft-spoken insight noting areas for improvement. It is part of his understated skill that we come away from each review feeling that we have learned about--and from--an author's work, through Jeff's mediation.

Online Store
The Official Online RBS 6 Nations Store is open. The store has everything you need to get behind your team during the RBS 6 Nations, plus the store is now fully stocked with a much wider range of rugby merchandise.
However while playing against Clermont last weekend he had to come off in the second half with a knee problem, and it has since been discovered that he will require an operation.
The news comes a major blow to Clerc, who tore his cruciate ligaments against the same opponents in 2008.
That kept him out of action for the best part of a year, while this injury means that he will not feature for Les Bleus on their three-Test tour of New Zealand this summer.
However the winger has already set his sights on being fit again for next year's RBS 6 Nations.
He said: "I'm not afraid of [retirement]. I'll be 32 years old but my lifestyle has allowed me to have the same physical capabilities as I did five years ago.
"I have a new challenge ahead of me. I give myself eight months before I return, and two or three more to find my level."
