Parker Fennelly Movies
American character actor Parker Fennelly usually played taciturn New Englanders on stage, screen, television and mostly on radio. His Yankee upbringing made him well-suited to the roles. In addition to acting, Fennelly was also a noted playwright. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Angel in My Pocket
Minister Sam (Andy Griffith) and his wife Mary Elizabeth (Lee Meriweather) move to a Kansas town divided by political concerns that stall the town's progress. Will Sinclair (Henry Jones) and Alex Gresham (Edgar Buchanan) have allowed a long-standing family argument to impede the progress of the small rural community. Sam must contend with his mother-in-law (Kay Medford) and his wild brother-in-law Bubba (Jerry Van Dyke) when Bubba sets up a moonshine still in the church basement with the help of his friend Calvin (Parker Fennelly). Art Shields (Gary Collins) is the ambitious young country lawyer who runs for mayor in hopes of bringing peace to the families, and he works for the best interests of the divided community. ~ Dan Pavlides, Rovi

Just because The Russians are Coming, the Russians are Coming was vastly overrated by contemporary critics does not make it any less amusing. The story gets under way when a Soviet submarine accidently gets lodged in a sandbar on the coast of a New England town. In his feature film debut, Alan Arkin plays the sub's second-in-command, who is ordered by commander Theodore Bikel to free up the sub and skeedaddle before an international incident erupts. Hoping to secure a power boat to tug the sub out to sea, Arkin and his men call upon vacationing TV writer Carl Reiner, passing themselves off as Norwegians. When this ruse fails, Arkin is reluctantly compelled to force Reiner at gunpoint to fetch his motorboat, while gentle-natured Russian sailor John Philip Law is left behind to guard Reiner's wife Eva Marie Saint and pretty neighbor girl Andrea Dromm (yes, love blooms). The plot thickens when the locals, notably bullnecked sheriff Brian Keith and superpatriot Paul Ford, spread the word that the Russians have "invaded" their little community. Several slapstick complications later, the Russians and the locals face each other down in the center of the village, weapons at the ready. Fortunately, World War 3 is averted when the Russians and the villagers band together to rescue young Johnny Whittaker from falling to his doom. Enormously popular upon its first release, The Russians are Coming, the Russians are Coming still works on a slick sitcom level. The film was based on a novel by Nathaniel Benchley, the son of humorist Robert Benchley and the father of Jaws author Peter Benchley. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Have Gun, Will Travel: The Calf
This episode is a showcase for character actor Parker Fennelly, best remembered as the dour "Titus Moody" on radio's Fred Allen Show. Fenelly plays Abraham Lee, an elderly farmer who owns a tiny patch of land bordering the property of wealthy and powerful rancher George Advent (Denver Pyle). Upset that Lee's farm prevents the fence surrounding his own land from forming a "perfect" line, Advent has declared war on the old codger--and of course, Paladin (Richard Boone) has cast his lot with the underdog. Essential to the story's outcome is Lee's Native American adopted son, played by My Three Sons' Don Grady). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Doris Day stars in a true-to-type performance as Jane Osgood, a spunky, pretty, wronged widow with two children. She manages her own lobster business, and the railroad has just trashed a shipment, killing them off before they could ever be properly boiled to death for someone's dinner. Jane commissions her lawyer (and potential romantic partner) George Denham (Jack Lemmon) to take on the railroad and its nefarious owner, Harry Foster Malone (Ernie Kovacs). Thus, the battle between the unjustly treated Jane and the arrogant railroad boss begins. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Have Gun, Will Travel: Three Sons
Paladin (Richard Boone) generously allows homeless newlyweds Hank and Janie Bosworth (Paul Jasmin and Jacqueline Mayo) to use his hotel suite for their honeymoon. Upon learning that Hank's half-brothers intend to do harm to the groom's elderly father Rupe Bosworth (played by Parker Fennelly, best known for his portrayal of dry-witted Titus Moody on radio's Fred Allen Show), Paladin rides off to warn the elder Bosworth of the danger. Ultimately, Paladin must help the aphasiatic Rufe prove that he is mentally competent to retain ownership of his land. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Kettles on Old MacDonald's Farm
The 8-year-old "Ma and Pa Kettle Series" came to an end with The Kettles on Old MacDonald's Farm. In her last screen appearance, Marjorie Main is back as Ma Kettle, while Parker Fennelly replaces the defecting Percy Kilbride as Pa Kettle. This time, Ma and Pa try to smooth the path of romance for newlyweds Sally Flemming (Gloria Talbot) and Brad Johnson (John Smith). Despite her wealthy parents' objections, Sally intends to "rough it" with her back-to-the-soil husband by living on the Kettles' old, ramshackle farm. Ensuing comic complications include a set-to with a bunch of crooked loggers and a wild appearance at a rodeo. A worthwhile finale to this durable series, The Kettles on Old MacDonald's Farm was still making the second-run-theater rounds as late as 1960. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Whistle at Eaton Falls
Produced by "March of Time" maven Louis de Rochemont, Whistle at Eaton Falls is docudrama concerning a labor dispute in a small New Hampshire town. Union leader Lloyd Bridges is reluctantly promoted to the presidency of Eaton Falls' plastics plant. Now in a management position, Bridges must lay off several of his old friends in order to cut down costs. He tries to do this as painlessly as possible, but his union-boss successor Murray Hamilton public derides Bridges' methods. The potent problems posed by the film are solved in too-slick Hollywood fashion when the plant is saved by a huge government contract and the introduction of cost-efficient machinery. Dorothy Gish makes one of her rare talking-picture appearances as the widow of the plant's former owner in Whistle at Eaton Falls, and if you look closely you'll spot Lloyd Bridges' infant son Jeff in his movie debut. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Lost Boundaries
Until the House Un-American Activities Committee horned in, several postwar Hollywood films dealt with touchy "liberal" subject matter. Lost Boundaries stars Mel Ferrer as a light-skinned African-American, whose family is "passing" in an all-white New England community. When the truth comes out, the more bigoted neighbors demand the expulsion of Ferrer and his family. Considered pretty potent stuff in 1949, Lost Boundaries appears fairly conventional today, especially in its reluctance to cast a genuine black actor in the lead. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Easygoing but psychotic Dennis (Anthony Perkins) is released from jail, where he has served a sentence for his complicity in a suspicious death. Wandering through a small, working-class New England town, Dennis befriends apparently normal high school A-student Sue Ann (Tuesday Weld). He fills her head with lies about his imaginary career as a secret agent. She is thrilled, and makes up her mind to join him in his further adventures. This jet-black "who's manipulating who?" seriocomedy was adapted by Lorenzo Semple Jr. from Stephen Geller's novel She Let Him Continue. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Trouble with Harry
Add The Trouble with Harry to Queue
Add The Trouble with Harry to top of Queue
The trouble with Harry is that he's dead. The scene is a autumnal Vermont village, where a pre-Leave It to Beaver Jerry Mathers stumbles upon Harry's corpse in the woods. Mathers alerts his mother Shirley MacLaine (making her film debut), who recognizes Harry as her ex-husband. Later on, retired sea captain Edmund Gwenn likewise comes across the moribund Harry. Both MacLaine and Gwenn have reason to believe that they're responsible for Harry's demise; MacLaine thinks that she killed Harry by clobbering him with a bottle, while Gwenn is certain that he shot the poor fellow while hunting. As the day draws to a close, seemingly every person in town is convinced that he or she has had some hand in Harry's death, thus they conspire to hide the body from the authorities. Visiting artist John Forsythe, dumbfounded at the calm, collected reactions of the villagers regarding Harry (whose ubiquitous body pops up at the most inopportune moments), solves the "mystery." Though not his most successful film, The Trouble with Harry was one of director Alfred Hitchcock's favorites. The story's whimsical black-comedy elements are perfectly complemented by Bernard Herrmann's playful music score. Best bit: Mildred Natwick, coming upon Gwenn as the latter is strenuously dragging away Harry's corpse, asking offhandedly "What seems to be the trouble, Captain?" The Trouble With Harry was adapted by John Michael Hayes from the novel by John Trevor. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

MAXTON - One man died Sunday from an apparent gunshot wound, the Robeson County Sheriff's Office said.
Capt. Anthony Thompson said deputies responded to a home on the 100 block of Stealth Drive in Maxton after one of the residents there reported the shooting around 8:45 p.m. Sunday.
Willie Manning, 61, was pronounced dead at the scene. Daniel McLaughlin, 54, who reported the incident, was also shot. He was taken to an area hospital for treatment of his injuries. His condition was unknown Monday night.
Thompson said deputies have not arrested anyone in the case and officials are following leads at the moment. The case is still under investigation.

Simple answer. NO! That's ridiculous! But, none-the-less, this rumor is again going around, especially by email touting "SEE MARS AS LARGE AS THE FULL MOON ON 27TH AUGUST 2010 Should be spectacular! Truly a once in a lifetime experience!"
Just stupid. Below is a rebuttal from a credible scource, along with some actual scientific fact, explaining why mars will NOT be as bog as the moon this Friday night, or ever!
It's happening again. People are clamoring for information about an amazing spectacle involving the red planet Mars. An email is circulating suggesting that – on August 27, 2010 – Mars will appear as large as a full moon in Earth's sky. The version I saw actually included a powerpoint presentation, suggesting that Mars and Earth's moon will appear as a "double moon" in late August.
It sounds amazing! Can it possibly be true?
No. It can't. The email is a hoax. It has circulated every summer since 2003. Mars can never appear as large as a full moon as seen from Earth, and Mars will not even be at its brightest in August of 2010.
How to see Mars in August 2010
EarthSky's meteor shower guide for 2010
In fact, in August of 2010 Mars appears as modestly bright star in the western evening sky. Mars was substantially brighter earlier this year, shining most brilliantly when this world came closest to Earth for the year on January 27, 2010. Even so, Mars looked like a bright star, with nowhere the size or brilliance of the full moon. In fact, the only time that Mars "doubled up" with the full moon this year was on the night of January 29, 2010. But as seen from earth, Mars' diameter was 1/140th the diameter of the full moon. In other words, you would have had to line up 140 Mars side by side to equal the diameter of the moon.
Ah, Mars. World of dreams and visions. Mars is the world orbiting one step outward from Earth's orbit. This world is slightly smaller than Earth – but slightly larger than Earth's moon. Mars is also much much farther away than Earth's moon. It's hard to comprehend what little specks the planets and moons are in contrast to the vastness of space, but let me put it this way. Earth's moon is about a light-second away. Traveling at 186,000 miles per second, light bouncing from the moon's surface takes about a second to reach us here on Earth. Meanwhile, light from Mars takes much much longer to reach Earth – from several minutes to about 20 minutes – with the difference being the result of Earth's and Mars' motions around the sun. In other words, when Mars is on the same side of the sun as Earth, its distance from us is less than when it's on the far side of the sun from us.
The moon is much closer than Mars, and that's why we see the moon as a bright disk in our sky. Meanwhile – to the eye – Mars never appears as anything but a 'star.'
So how did this rumor of Mars-as-big-and-bright-as-the-moon get started? It started with an actual event, in 2003. On August 27 of that year, Earth and Mars came very slightly closer than they'd been in nearly 60,000 years. Our two worlds, center-to-center, were less than 35 million miles apart – just over three light-minutes apart. The last people to come so close to Mars were Neanderthals. Astronomy writers like me had a field day that year, talking about Mars at its closest. Was it a spectacular sight? Yes! It looked like a dot of flame in the night sky. But was Mars as big and bright as the moon, even at its closest in 2003? Never.
On August 27, moon near Jupiter – not Mars
What is happening on August 27 of 2010? Nothing, really. By coincidence, there will be a brilliant planet near the moon on August 27, the king planet Jupiter. Will some people look outside on the night of August 27 – see Jupiter near the moon – and think this brilliant world is Mars? Probably…but wrong.

Obama looking for mandate
President Obama is still hoping for a mandate, even though the election is shaping up to be a real squeaker.
In an interview with Time posted on Thursday, he said he hopes such a mandate would push Republicans to be more cooperative, leading to a "popping of the blister" that is gumming up the works in Washington:
[G]iven how stark the choices are, I do think that should I be fortunate enough to have another four years, the American people will have made a decision. And, hopefully, that will impact how Republicans think about these problems.
...I believe that in a second term where Mitch McConnell's imperative of making me a one-term President is no longer relevant, they recognize what the American people are looking for is for us to get things done.
...[M]y expectation is that there will be some popping of the blister after this election, because it will have been such a stark choice.
The president also explained comments he has made about messaging. Obama has said that one of his biggest mistakes was failing to communicate enough with the American people. He told Time's Michael Scherer that his administration simply didn't have enough time to communicate:
Well, what I meant by that is that we were in the midst of a once-in-a-lifetime crisis, so we had to just do stuff fast. And sometimes, it wasn't popular. And we didn't have the luxury of six months to explain exactly what we were doing with the Recovery Act, which was basically a jobs act and making sure middle-class families didn't fall into poverty act.
And there were all kinds of things we could do to have explained that effectively, but we didn't have time.

Rated 5 out of 5 by sweetsumatra Best SPG experience E.V.E.R.
Most amazing experience ever. So amazing I just booked another five nights. Greeted by Craig, the GM as soon as we arrived- the suite was AMAZING the staff are so happy and helpful. From the canopied bamboo forest entrance, to the epic sunsets from the balcony- I am never going to waste PTO anywhere else. My sister got really sick and the staff immediately sent up tea and housekeeping. I mentioned I love the chevron decor in their fire restaurant and they got the address of where I could buy the material. The GM personally sent us a note of where to have thanksgiving dinner... The list goes on. As a platinum SPG member who has stayed at properties all over the globe- nothing beats the W Seminyak. So what are you waiting for?!? BOOK HERE!!!! The W Bali awaits you.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Luca74 So far the best hotel experience
As Platinum SPG member I stay in dozens different hotels every year and so far this is the best experience I had.
Full status recognition, amazing facilities and staff able to understand what you need before you ask for it.
Overall not cheap, but definitely worth it.
AAA+ Congratulations to AT&T the staff and the management.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Batchelor57 We Love This Hotel
The W at Seminyak is one of the best hotels we have stayed in anywhere in the world, and it gave us one of the best hotel experiences we have ever had.
The Villas are beautiful, and the staff are exceptional.
The W is a credit to its owners and a jewel in the Starwood group. We continue to be loyal clients and guests, and look forward to many more stays in your hotel.

The facilities and service were beyond exceptional.
Every need was met at every level! We felt like royaty!
The hotel itself is beyond beautiful, luxurious, trendy, funky, hip and just perfect.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Dina23 this is some serious stuff
Ok Mr. Seaward i am curious what's the magic potion here?
Just kidding mr Seaward, the reason why i write my review for 3rd or 4th time is because every single stay got better!!! how did you and your team do it, whatever meeting you've held, the staff certainly are doing their job super well! it is beyond my expectation and i truly feel i need to thank every single staff that i've met during our stay especially to mr. Angga, mr Randy and mrs Kina (or kira) from fire.
i felt the resort really paid attention to each single moment of ours such as: we were given surprise gift to celebrate my new status as gold member (none of other hotel celebrated that with us), Mr. Angga sent us some sea salt soak for my husband's sore feet from bali audax 200km bike ride. He also prepared a birthday surprise of poster etc for my husband's birthday.
we stayed during Snoop's concert and happened to be staying on the same floor. guess who got to take a picture with him? ;)
Now, i wrote the same information when we booked W and other hotel during our bali stay, W certainly went beyond my high expectation. we were in awe, W bali was truly too kind to us.
so please don't get tired of us staying at W bali every year.
by the way we rented whisk away car (smart car) i think it needs to be serviced
ps to readers, must try W's AWAY spa!
thank you thank you thank you...

On Sept. 20, Andrei Vernon ('12), an Environmental Studies and Russian double major, presented at Dickinson's annual International Research Symposium. His presentation was titled "The Absence of a Unified Recycling Program in Moscow, Russia" and was the result of research he conducted while abroad for a year on the Dickinson-in-Moscow program. Andrei's presentation focused on the historical issue of trash in the Soviet Union, current laws that affect the regulation of trash and recyclables in Moscow, and recycling programs currently in place in Moscow. Furthermore, he discussed various solutions that have been proposed to help initiate the formation of a city-wide recycling program. The presentation concluded with a few recommendations and possible solutions to help jump start a city-wide recycling program in Moscow.

Investors can use options to get income from non-dividend-paying stocks or to purchase a stock and limit its risk. Traders can use options to add leverage with an acceptable level of risk that is truly limited, as well as to trade up, down and range-bound markets.
Despite these benefits and continuously growing volume (more than 15% compound volume growth since 1973), options are still in their infancy regarding public understanding and acceptance.
Here are 10 key principles that newcomers to options should keep in mind as they approach the options arena. While the potential list of principles is considerably longer, a good number to start with is 10.
1. Know the difference between using options to invest and using options to trade: Investors focus on the benefits of long-term stock ownership, and they should use options to buy, sell, or protect stock positions, or to increase income from stock positions. Consider an investor planning to buy stock when he receives a year-end bonus. This investor can buy one call today for each 100 shares he plans to purchase. A call option is a contract that gives the buyer the right to buy the underlying stock at the strike price at any time until the expiration date. Essentially, for paying the cost of a call plus commissions today, the investor locks in a purchase price for the stock equal to the strike price of the call for the life of the contract (see "Keeping it simple"). If the stock price is higher when the investor receives the bonus, then he still can purchase the planned-for number of shares. Without the call, the number of shares would have to be reduced given the higher stock price.
The covered call is another common investment-oriented option strategy that enables investors to get income from non-dividend-paying stocks. In this strategy, calls are sold on a share-for-share basis against purchased or owned stock. The seller of a call, in return for the premium, assumes the obligation to deliver the stock at the strike price if the call buyer exercises the right.
Traders, in contrast to investors, are short-term market timers with little interest in owning the underlying stock, and they often use a high degree of leverage. Purchased options give traders the potential for considerable leverage with limited risk, the so-called "home run." But the risk is real. Options can lose 50% or more of their purchase price in a short time if the price of the underlying stock moves the wrong way. Also, out-of-the-money options expire worthless at expiration for a total loss of the price paid, plus commissions.
2. Investors who use options need a plan: Will a purchased option be exercised or sold if it is in-the-money at expiration? Covered writers must know whether or not they are willing to sell the underlying stock. If not, it is best to decide in advance at what price the call will be repurchased or rolled to
another option.
3. Understand how and why option prices change: Option prices change differently than stock prices, so option traders need to plan differently than stock traders. A typical complaint from newcomers to options is: "The stock went up, but my call didn't!" Understanding how prices change is essential to using options successfully.
"The value of time" (below) presents theoretical values of a 50-strike call at different stock prices and different days to expiration given the stated assumptions about interest rates, dividends and volatility. Each of the rows in the table is a different stock price, and each of the columns is a different number of days to expiration. It reveals two important concepts about option prices — the concept of "delta" and that of "non-linear time decay."
The concept of "delta" is that for a $1 change in the underlying stock price, the value of a call will change by less than $1. In "The value of time," if the stock price rises from $50 to $51 at 90 days, the $50 call rises by 50¢. Delta describes the expected change in an option's price for a $1 change in the underlying stock's price, so this call is described as having a delta of "0.50."
Regarding time decay, the table illustrates that option prices do not decrease at the same rate as time passes to expiration, assuming factors other than time to expiration remain constant. Consider the center row in which the stock is $50. As time to expiration decreases by 50% from 90 days to 45 days, the value of the $50 call decreases by approximately 31% from $3.20 to $2.25. This is what "non-linear time erosion" means.
Looking across any row, you will observe that the decrease in option value from the passage of time, so-called time erosion or theta, varies depending on whether an option is in-the-money, at-the-money or out-of-the-money.
4. Option traders need discipline in taking profits and losses: First, have a profit target and close or reduce the size of a position if that price is reached. Second, have a stop-loss point and close or reduce the size of a position at that price. Third, have a time limit and close or reduce the size of a position if neither the profit target nor the stop-loss point are reached by the end of the time period.
5. Do not get freaked out by volatility: Conceptually, options are similar to insurance, and the volatility factor in options corresponds to the risk factor in insurance. It is an important factor, but it is not the only factor. While the concept of volatility is not intuitively obvious to newcomers, it can be learned if one is patient.
6. Have realistic expectations: Mastering the concepts of delta and theta (time decay) is an important step toward the goal of developing realistic expectations about how option prices might and might not change and how much profit potential and risk each strategy has.
7. "Buying under-valued options" and "selling over-valued options" are not sufficient strategies: "Value" is a subjective determination that every trader must make individually. Option traders must focus on their three-part forecast as much as or more than the "value" of an option.
8. "Selling options" is not a better strategy than "buying options": It is a myth that 80-90% of options expire worthless. Approximately one third, or 33%, of options expire worthless while 10-15% are exercised. The rest are closed prior to expiration. While option writing (selling) can be a successful strategy, newcomers often misinterpret it. There is a reason there is a premium for taking on more risk. There is no secret to it — option buyers pay a premium of defined risk and option sellers receive a premium for taking on that risk.
9. Leverage is a double-edged sword: Option traders should manage their capital differently than stock traders. The decision to purchase 200 shares of a stock trading at $50 per share is very different that the decision to purchase 100 call options trading at $1 each, even though both trades involve an investment of $10,000, not including commissions. Typically, option traders will devote a smaller portion of total capital to each trade. Option traders, however, might have more open positions than stock traders.
10. Develop a market forecasting technique by starting small, realizing profits and losses and by working at a steady pace: Traders should be able to explain their trade-selection process in a few sentences. Beginners should enter trades that have only small potential profits and losses, because this will increase their chances of maintaining objectivity. Trades must be initiated and closed so that a "trading rhythm" is developed.
Almost anyone can learn to trade options if they spend a few hours every week developing their technique. But you can spend years without mastering options. Learn these principles and take it one step at a time. Options are like layers of an onion — there is always something new to learn. Don't became frustrated and, more importantly, don't become over confident and think you know it all because that is when you can get burned.
James Bittman is a senior instructor at the Options Institute at CBOE and author of "Options for the Stock Investor" and "Trading Options as a Professional."

When you think of installing a new email client, there aren't too many options. If you happen to be both a Windows and Mac user, and want to use the same client across both computers, Thunderbird would be your most obvious choice.
Microsoft Outlook and the Mac-based Entourage are obvious options. However, Entourage isn't the best commercial e-mail client and, to be fair, it isn't cheap. You have to purchase Mac Office to install it on your computer and most users prefer the free Apple Mail.
Another choice is Postbox. This is a cross-platform commercial email client, based on the Mozilla platform, but with a whole host of new and powerful features that make it worth considering. If you're used to a tabbed interface in your web browser, then using Postbox will be a breeze. You can open multiple emails within tabs, rather than separate windows. It separates the components of your email, so you can quickly see the main message, attachments, images, links and contacts associated with the email.
Search for an email within Postbox and you do not have to wait minutes for the result. The search options are presented immediately, much like spotlight in Mac OS X.
Reading emails through Postbox is made easy by the use of threaded discussions, so it will group together emails from various people, around the same topic. You can quickly open the topic and see every response. Ideal for following a conversation.
The latest Postbox 3 is a major upgrade. New features include much improved Gmail integration, more social integration (sharing content from within Postbox to Facebook, Twitter, Dropbox and other locations), OS X Lion mouse gestures and much more.
Postbox 3.0.8 brings these changes:
Reduce power usage (and increase laptop battery life) by only using the integrated GPU on Mac OS X
Added a "Run Filters on Folder" toolbar button
Notification Center alerts now link directly to messages
Postbox will now display the account name next to folder name in the message pane
Added automatic account configuration support for iCloud email accounts
Fixed a crash on import from Thunderbird
Fixed a crash on indexing
Fixed an issue where attachment thumbnails would not display on Mac OS X (Retina only)
Fixed an issue with Growl integration on Mac OS X
Fixed an issue where searches on non-recognized Topics would return results
Fixed issues with "Topic is" / "Topic isn't" criteria for smart folders
Fixed an issue with automatic account configuration when you entered an incorrect password
Fixed an issue that would prevent spelling dictionaries from installing

Mon Ami Gabi - Reston
Online Reservations
We had a WONDERFUL brunch at Mon Ami. The food was outstanding and our server was very accommodating to our needs. We enjoyed our quiche, crepes, and egg dishes very much. We will return for sure.
Had a great time. Food and service could not have been better.
They have a Tuesday night special of Duck A L'Orange which was very well prepared! Enjoyed it very much. Also, during happy hour, many appetizers discounted including escargot....which were also fantastic! Enjoyed the meal very much and bartenders were very aimed to please (sat at bar for dinner).
First date with an amazing young lady!! AND our server was awesome. we enjoyed a fantastic Pouilly Fuisse wine... the duck was delicious and the Souffle was completly over the top!!
I have visited France several times. It is one of my favorite places in the world. The food at your restaurant is good enough to remind me of the meals I so enjoyed in La Belle France.
We were two couples, both celebrating out anniversaries. The food was great. Especially the bread pudding - amazing!!!! Service was fantastic. The waiter made the night most enjoyable. And then the brought our deserts with candles in them for our celebration and they were on the house. They also brought out a card signed by the staff wishing us happy anniversary. Nice touch. Excellent wine. Excellent food. Above excellent service.
Brunch menu has a very nice selection. I had a very nice carrot soup and an open face sandwich with shredded duck confit, both at a reasonable price.
We have eaten many times at Mon Ami and have always enjoyed it. The food has always been delicious and the service is good. The only negative is that it is noisy which we don't care for but the food is so good we go anyway. On our last visit my husband had the scallops which were excellent and I had the salmon with leeks and quinoa....excellent!! I've had that before and was anxious to go again to see if it was as good the second time and it was. We will both be looking forward to our next visit.
Mon Ami Gabi offers the feeling of being in a sophisticated metropolitan restaurant like you'd find in NewYork but is still relaxed and comfortable. Great place to go when you feel like you went out of town somewhere special whether its just fir a romantic get away or for a family gathering. . The food is always a treat: delicious, inviting, tasty and satisfying. And the service is top rate. I had noted via open table that we were celebrating a wedding anniversary and were welcomed with a thoughtful card and two glasses of champagne. Highly recommend.
Everything was great! The service, food, drinks, ambiance. I'd definitely go back.
My husband and I dine at this location regularly The service and the food here is awesome Romain our server was excellent . He gave us an excellent service
The staff is so very well trained. They are polite, efficient amd formal. Very pleasant. the food was excellent. We love the carrot salad, and bread/butter to start. I had a daily special of a seafood stew. Very flavorful. My companion's steak/frites excellent. Great night out...again!
As always, everything about our dinner Tuesday night was fantastic: excellent culinary execution of Duck a L'Orange, fabulous wine list and very knowledgeable waitstaff to guide our wine selection. We enjoyed dinner with our children, ages 6 - 13, who also enjoyed everything about the experience -- from the wide selection on the kids menu to the top shelf Shirly Temple's with extra cherries! Can't wait to go back!
We always enjoy a fabulous meal at Mon Ami Gabi. The food it always outstanding, the ambience is great, and it is always festive. They even have a great kids menu! My six year old had a delicious hamburger and frites, complete with green beans almondine and apple slices! I love this restaurant, just wish we lived closer.
Had a wonderful time bringing new family members to our favorite spot. Always love sharing the Mon Ami experience with new comers. :)
Nice for lunch and dinner, outdoor seating on the pedestrian walkway in Reston, service is always attentive and professional. Good steaks, "frites" are tasty but unique -- halfway between regular pommes frites and potato chips. Excellent coffee.
I've always had great food here and this time was no different! Oustanding steak and frittes for all!
The closest Mon Ami Gabi is the one we regularly go to in Reston, VA. We live in NJ. We wold come here for all of our special occasions if it were closer. As it is, we almost always stop in Reston, VA on our way down south since the food and experience are always amazing. The extra special addition we had this year was the Wild Mushroom Soup with Creme Fraiche. Yammers.
Most of the restaurants in Reston that are open at lunchtime on Saturday serve brunch. We were looking for lunch. Mon Ami Gabi had the most extensive menu with good breakfast choices, as well as plenty of delicious lunch options.
I eat at Mon Ami Gabi in Reston several times a month, both lunch and dinner. It's always an enjoyable experience. The soup of the day is usually a good bet, but their regular seasonal soups are equally enticing. Any of the salads makes a good accompaniment for either lunch or dinner. I recently had a good Arctic Char daily fish special that was delicious, presented atop roasted fingerling potatoes and topped with a small spinach salad. I highly recommend it.
From a guy who actually grew up in Brussels Belgium. The Steak & Frites were incredible at Mon Ami Gabi. Look forward to taking future clientele to this location for lunch time dining.
Always enjoy dinner or brunch here, it is and remains one of my favorite places for dinner out. My last experience this is the first time I can say this my dinner wasn't the usual excellent, flavor was fine but it should have been hotter when served.
At our most recent dining experience here, I was excited to see that the fall menu had arrived, and even more excited to see that steak dijon had returned to the menu after departing a couple of years ago, though I was a bit disappointed in the new version of this steak compared to the old. On the plus side, the new chocolate pecan dessert was outstanding. As always, the service and family-friendliness can not be beaten. Our young son has been coming here regularly since he was a baby. The noise level and general level of activity mean that he likely won't disturb other diners if he makes a little noise, and the kids menu has been great for him.
For classic "French Steak and fries" hard to beat for quality and price.
My special fish of the day for Sun 10/27 was okay, Not one of their best.. Too much fatty bacon fatback. Just a little would add the right flavor. Needed more herbs and wine in the sauce. This was my birthday dinner and my meal was the least enjoyed. But the steaks of my family were awesome. Medium rare and very tender. Delicious sauces with them. Next time I will get the steak. I've had the skate(stingray) there before. It was wonderful, tender and moist. My husband's scallops were okay. They were big but there was a slight smell of ammonia. Were they fresh? The chicken liver mousse was delicious. The baked brie was magnifique. Very accommodating to GF diets. Wonderful waiter. Lovely ambiance. Need to improve a little on seafood entrees.
The gluten free bread was incredible! The onion soup is delicious! Brunch was absolutely amazing!! Will definitely be back for brunch and will return for dinner in the near future.
We like Mon Ami Gabi in Reston because it's always reliable. Decent food, good service, a good atmosphere...if at times a bit noisy. We enjoy being able to have oysters, champagne, pate, etc in a civilized setting with good service. The only down side here...is the tacky paper on the tables. Though Americans seem anesthetized to that particular bit of insult.
It's always a treat taking your daughter to a favorite local spot for a celebratory meal. We love the warm, crusty bread served before our meal. Service is friendly and attentive, and the food up to expectation. The fries are delicious and accompany many of the entree's. I like the mussel's as a main course, she one of the steaks.
A corner table, excellent service, a Bordeaux that was delicious and steak fritte that melted in your mouth, all came together to make our dining experience a wonderful event. It was a first date on a Wwdnesday that was enhanced by the celebrations of nearby diners that allowed us to feel included and secluded at the same time. I would highly recommend Mon Ami Gabi and look forward to our next visit.
The amazing fare and excellent service is IMHO marred by how noisy the restaurant is. We have eaten there several times and each time tried to get a quieter table. Not possible as far as i can tell. Too bad, because otherwise we would (a) recommend it, and (b) eat there more often.
We celebrated my wife's birthday and we're very pleased with the food and service. She received a small dessert with a candle. Thats the good news. The downside was the noise. I asked for a quieter table but we were in a main artery. A loudmouth behind us drowned out our conversation and forced many to move.
Staff is attentive food is great love the new pork shank Monday nights
Mon Ami rarely disappoints. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and the food is freshly prepared and served to please the eyes and the palette.
As always, the food was good and very flavorful. The service was a bit slow and we needed to engage the Manager. Otherwise, a good experience.
Had to catch a plane at 2 and this worked out for a relaxing bite beforehand.
I was pleased to see Skate Wing on the menu since it is not a common menu item. The chef's preparation was superb. It was light and the butter-Dijon sauce was perfect providing a great enhancement to the flavor.
We had an absolutely outstanding evening at Mon Ami Gabi from soup to nuts! We love Mon Ami Gabi
Great steak, wine, & chocolate dessert. Best meal Ive had in Reston Town Center. They never disappoint. Perfect for date nights.
We love this place! The food and service are always top notch.
A classic bistro with very good food - very French. The noise level is a bit high and the tables are a bit close together but the food, good service and fun will bring me back.
We are semi-regulars here. The pumpkin chestnut soup was outstanding, the chestnuts calming the sweetness of the pumpkin. My husband had the frisée salad with added salmon for an entree. He reported that it was delicious. Service excellent. As we are approaching the holiday season, the bar was full & very noisy. Go earlier if you want it quieter. Our reservations were for 7 (we were seated promptly.)
The host is the most gracious and the servers are wonderful besides having the best bistro food around.
The restaurant is very nosiy, but it is because it is full and popular. The food was good - steaks done correctly and veggies great. We were there for a special occasion and the waiter brought a dessert to celebrate. This place takes reservations, so make sure to take advantage of that. Given that it is crowded and noisy, the tables run close to each other so you really hear and see and experience your neighbors. Not sure there is much they can do about that other than decrease their tables and make them more private. We would return to this place, since the quality of the food is very good. Would prefer quieter and more privacy, but that will only keep us away when we are particularly seeking that.
Never disappoints...always a delicious meal at a nice leisurely pace.
Food is always constantly good. Kids loved it as well. Completely cleaned their plate. Service was friendly and timely.
I had a great time dining at Mon Ami Gabi last night. Our server was very knowledgeable and very patient with us as we decided which wine to get (it was half off bottles on Sundays). The food was amazing ; the scallops were perfect! I would definitely return again.
Made reservation for a work lunch - given we were all on a tight schedule this was a real plus. Lunch was really tasty - everyone of us said we really liked it. It was a good choice.
The food and service here always awesome Our server Romain was outstanding
I really enjoyed this place the moment my wife and I entered. It was on a Monday so I figured it was going to be great. The fresh baguette was great, appetizers were well priced , and all the portions were comparable to the prices. I was expecting it to cost more more but , for two appetizers, two entrees, three alcoholic beverages, it was only 100 dollars. I would go back to this place.
Me and my girlfriends were celebrating the Holidays and had a wonderful time. We had reservations for 7pm but our table was not available so were able to sit in the booth at the bar area. It still worked out great and the service is awesome in the bar.

Name: Caleb Celebrindal
Nickname/Alias: N/A
Gender: Male
Age: 13
Age Appearance: 14
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Village: Ame
Birthplace: Ame
Rank: Genin
Chakra Nature: Earth
Credit goes to Hyarion of DA for the image. I claim no rights of it whatsoever.
Funny, and clever, Caleb holds a deep desire to cast any form of wit that would take the form of clever catchphrases, sarcastic tongue or pretty much anything that would result in the downgrading of the one(s) on the other side of his wit. This very nature of him takes the form of another, and something that is quite useful for a person such as himself. This very form is that of clever wordplay to not only redirect the attention of enemies, but to catch them off guard….or rather to get them distracted by his sometimes-constant babbling/ranting.
Being nasty, and mocking in speech, Caleb truly is his father's son. Much like his father, Cerden, Caleb has quite the sarcastic tongue on him, often leading to conflicts with not only himself, but the people who are his side that are also on the other end of his sarcasm. To be fair, Caleb's unique form of sarcasm isn't really meant to be liked well by others as It has a habit of being insulting at times. At other times, it also appears to be full of mockery and confrontation, which is another trait of Caleb, but we'll get to that later.
Offensive and repulsive in nature, Caleb's attitude dictates that he'll act obnoxious any chance he gets, no matter how low it actually Is. It's often in a sarcastic tone, but it still varies with the person that Caleb is acting obnoxious towards. Most who have been on the opposite end of Caleb's attitude in this regard have commented that it was mainly mocking in an unpleasant way, but also seemed to be mainly rude in every sense of the word.
Simply put, Caleb acts very perverted towards woman. It could be that he learned from his father, who is another person who seems to be perverted. However, Caleb's hasn't developed as much as Cerden's has. Unlike his father, Caleb seems to know a few boundaries when he acts this way. Usually, he'll make a few remarks, and just end it there. He knows restraints, and that's where he differs from his father, so that could show signs of possible development.
It's not hard to imagine that Caleb has a tendency to be a bit confrontational, even if it's in slightest of bits. Considering his persona blends in a nasty and rude wit, and sarcasm-dipped tongue along with obnoxiousness, it really shouldn't be all that hard to imagine that Caleb is nothing but confrontational in every sense of the word. He both confronts people in a verbal and a physical way. However, sometimes he even goes as far to take a psychological approach to it. As such, he is often considered very troublesome, but like with his pevertedness , Caleb knows restraints, but sometimes it's a little harder.
There really isn't anything special to say about Caleb's life. His father passed away about ten years into his life, so he really doesn't know much bout that only that he died as a hero. Kind of cliché, but that's the truth of the matter. His mother was awarded Cerden's estate as per his will, so as such, Caleb and his mother moved into it when he was eleven as that was the time that it was finalized.
Following the events of his father's death, you could say that Caleb went into a rather depression of sorts. He withdrew himself from society, but he still kept practicing his ninja arts. He wants to be a great ninja like his father was. He did have a tough time in the academy, but Caleb grew out of the depression stage, and found himself graduating after his third try of the Clone Jutsu test. After that, he would soon find himself on a team, and from there he would write his own history.

Special Traits
This style of taijutsu make use of the hands, feet, legs, arms, and head. Both kicks, punches, and takedowns are among the offensive movement, but the emphasis of kicking is the majority. Because of the appearance of many techniques related to this type of Taijutsu, it is often mistaken for dancing and/or acrobatic maneuvers. However, while Capoeria has some impressive acrobatic signatures, many of the basic techniques are similar to those found in other martial arts. It's a fast and versatile martial art that is historically focused on fighting outnumbered odds and/or technological disadvantages.
High Chakra Reserves
Ninjutsu Practitioner
No talent for Genjutsu
Kekkei Genkai:
Name of Kekkei Genkai: None
Type: (Dojutsu, Advanced Nature Type)
Name of Technique: Soft Step Jutsu
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu; Supplementary
Rank: D-C
Range: Short to Mid Range
Nature Type: Earth
Handseals: Boar
Description: After the Boar hand sign/seal is performed, Caleb emits chakra from his feet, and forwards it in front of him to which the ground within a twenty meter radius(not including his current position of the jutsu's inception), and makes the ground soft.
D-rank version: The most it could do it temporarily immobilize those who step onto said soft ground.
C-Rank: The maximum effect that it could do is create a pool of a quicksand-esque area where those trapped within will sink to the ground, but will be stopped at neck-level.
Weakness: A water user can easily get out. Also, as the higher version goes, Caleb will have to use more Chakra. Along with that, the process of neck-level sinkage takes at least twenty seconds, so the one getting sunk into the ground has that amount of time to get out.
b]Name of Technique:[/b] Twilling Overhead Kick
Type of Jutsu: Taijutsu; Offensive
Rank: D
Range: Short
Nature Type:None
Handseals: None
Description: Utilizing his Capoeira style of Taijutsu, and depending on distance between him and a series of opponents, Caleb puts himself in a handstand position. He then proceeds to twirl his body and spreads his legs to where his kicks will hit any close-range opponents.
b]Name of Technique:[/b] Aerial Body Block
Type of Jutsu: Taijutsu; Defensive
Rank: D
Range: Close Range
Nature Type: None
Handseals: None
Description: As it is with his previous one, this Capeoira technique involves a jump into the air, and midair-flips to deflect any and all punches via a twisting of Caleb's body. As he does that, his arms and legs can block any and all incoming attacks.
Weakness: The blocks are only limited to other taijutsu techniques as any weapon and/or ninjutsu would further the harm to his body. Also, he only can block four attacks at one time.

This is where the upscale Flintstones would stay. This is a boutique hotel is built into the side of the hill on the edge of the heart of town so it is... perfectly positioned . The staff is very friendly and helpful. We were pleasantly surprised when were greeted with an free upgrade to a suite cave room from a non cave superior room. (make sure you ask for a cave room when you make your reservation). The room was nothing short of anything you could imagine of being in a warm inviting safe quiet well lit cave. The bathroom was a separate cave room with all the amenities including an oversize Jacuzzi tub (for tall person and /or 2) and a separate shower equipped with the rain shower and wand shower heads. There a large patio outside to sit and take in the views of the valley and surrounding area. Just 3 to 5 minute walk in town is a 200 year old haman (Turkish bath) be sure to experience that the first restaurant on the right as you walk into the town has an outdoor seating area and serves the traditional CLAY POT baked meal which is quite tasty. Don't worry if it is a little chilly out as they will provide you with a warm serape type blanket so you can enjoy your meal without being cold. Room Tip: make sure to confirm your room is a cave room door Hands of Aloha van Maui op 12-09-2013

In the state of North Carolina basketball, the private schools run all as far as high school basketball is concerned. You'll find your studs in the public schools, no doubt. But if you're trying to go to a game and catch a handful of DI recruits from just about every team, private school is the way to go.
With the North Carolina private school governing body (NCISSA) having relatively chill reclassification rules, the private schools often gain talent from other states via players who either need to spend an extra year in school to get their grades straight or need another year to develop their game even more. John Wall really put the private schools on the map when he dominated at Word of God, but even the Wizards' star PG wasn't able to get a chip.
Northside Christian Academy, Flora MacDonald, and host school Ravenscroft all walked away with championships and memories that will last a lifetime. Amid those games, there were a number of guys who had some major talent and here's a brief look at some of the cats who caught our eye:
Madison Jones, 6-2, PG, Ravenscroft, 2012
A name on the NC hoops circuit for a while now, Madison has put all of his talents together to finish his high school career stronger than ever. With the ideal size and length that you look for out of a lead guard, he was able to use that package to blow past defenders to get into the paint and then finish above them. The consistency on the senior guard who ran with CP3′s AAU team is getting better, explaining why Seton Hall, Georgia Tech, Nebraska, and others are trying to get him to run the show for them next year.
Anton Gill, 6-3, SG, Ravenscroft, 2013
The most hyped prospect that the state tourney did not disappoint on his home court, pouring in 14 points in the W. The junior was able to change the game from both inside and out with his scoring, which he was able to do from in the paint, mid-range, and beyond the arc. Already headed to Louisville for a minute now, the strong play and state title throughout the HS season will certainly catapault him up the national 2013 rankings.
Rashed Anthony, 6-7, PF, Flora MacDonald, 2013
Probably not the guy who is going to receive the most media love on a stacked Flora Mac squad, Anthony was definitely my personal MVP in their state title run. A bouncy forward with crazy wingspan, he was able to dominate the game on the defensive end while also providing his team with a spark with his high activity level offensively. Relcass'd to 2013, expect for him to get hell love from mid-major colleges and above once they get a glimpse of him on the AAU circuit.
Aaron Rountree, 6-8, SF/PF, The Greenfield School, 2012
While he walked away as the runner-up for the state championship, Rountree had a pair of impressive showings against two teams stacked with DI players in The Oakwood School and Flora MacDonald. Arguably the top recruit that Wake Forest has coming in next year, he used his size and ability to see over the D to play a point forward role for his HS squad.The competent ball handler was able to serve as the key creator for Greenfield on the perimeter while also holding it down in the paint defensively. Rountree may have not walked away the victor here, but should be a big part of the Deamon Deacons rebuilding efforts.
Josh Level, 6-5, SF, Christ School, 2014
After playing last season with SLAM diarist Quincy Miller at Westchester, Josh as takent his game to a whole new level. Lame joke, but his game is not a joke by any means. Level has done a great job transitioning from the 4 to the 3 in the past year, evidenced by the handful of threes he drilled and new found ability to get to the cup. Add those skills to the real nice bounce that Level already had and you see why he will be one of the more coveted sophomores in the state of North Carolina.

(Note: This post was originally written for my work blog, Jumpcut… just so you know.)
While the Canada Games were at UPEI, I, along with my trusty sidekick and host Fraser McCallum, produced a series of web videos around the Canada Games. We managed to knock out nine videos in about two weeks. Impressive, if I do say so myself. During the process, I learned quite a few things about throwing together a short-run web series.
In no particular order:
Get a host
Getting a host was probably the best thing we did for this series. While I've worked with "hosts" in the past on a video-by-video basis, never before has one person been the face of nine. The host acts as a familiar face, and makes the editing process much, much simpler. Rather than trying to tell the story with only images and sporadic interviews, the host can tell the entire story in a matter of seconds. Plus, if you get a fella like Fraser, he can help with the production.
Schedule the episodes, but leave it flexible
Before we started, we knew we wanted to create a collection of vignettes, but also knew that we wanted to have the flexibility to create some "news" content. In other words, if one of our students were to win a medal, we wanted to make sure we could add that piece into our production schedule. It worked.
Know when to stop cutting and post
I love to edit, and if it were feasible, I'd take a week to edit a three minute video. But when you're trying to do one video a day, that's obviously not possible. When the video had to get up, it had to get up. As such, I had to sacrifice some of my pickier post-production tendencies.
One in the can is worth two in the bush
This depends on how time dependent your content is. If your content is "this is what happened today, and tomorrow you won't care about it," then maybe this statement is not true. However, if you plan on people watching this episodic content weeks or months down the road, then deciding to put the extra effort in one video and dropping another is definitely worth the consideration.
Less (footage) is more
This took a while for me to learn, but when I did, it made everything so much faster. Keep in mind that every frame you shoot will have to be logged, captured, and considered for editing. This process, as you likely know, takes a lot longer than you think it should. Thus, if you've three shots of athletes jumping hurdles, you probably don't need a fourth.
Post to YouTube while you're still waiting for approval
Like all good editors, I had to make sure that someone looked over the "completed" videos before we let them free to the world. Sometimes, this approval process took hours. Perhaps the approver(s) didn't have time to see it right then and there, or perhaps I was out shooting when it did. Most times, my first edit was the one that was going to go live, so while I was waiting for approval, I posted to YouTube and set the the privacy setting to "Private." That way, when approval came through, I simply had to change that permission, and the video could be live right away. If changes needed to be made, I could just delete that uploaded video and throw up the new one.
The Sony EX 1 is heavy
I love this camera, and trying to produce this series on tape would have been a major pain in the neck. The tripod we had it on was about two times as heavy as the camera. It didn't really slow us down, but it sure helped in tiring us out.
So that's it. Sure, some of it may be common sense, but I hope it at least reinforces the points. If anyone has other tips for this kind of production, I'd love to hear about it.

- I purchased the bright orange reflective leash from Dog Id's and also the orange blinking light that can be hooked on to a collar or harness. Both individually and in conjunction with one another serve the purpose of making my all black dog visible in the dark. The embroidered lettering is fairly large and very visible for anyone that needs to find their dogs leash among others (such as at a daycare facility etc). Am happy with the purchase and glad to have an inexpensive safety measure in place for night walks.

In half-baked phone theft, thief slips, posts pot shot of self on victim's Facebook page
Evidence can be a menace.
You think you've gotten away with something, and then that moment comes along when you suddenly remember that perhaps you've left a clue.
This thought may (or may not) have crossed the mind of an alleged cell phone thief.
As the New York Post reports, police in the Bronx feel sure that what happened is that a certain man -- whose picture they now have -- robbed a 27-year-old woman of her gadget.
He then allegedly used it to take a quite fetching picture of himself smoking pot.

Comments about Rossignol X1 Ultra Cross-Country Ski Boots - Men's:
I really put these new shoes to the test in Colorado. I was skate skiing at Ghost Mt. Ranch near Granby CO and the boots, while not skate specific, had the side support needed and did OK. I am sure they would be ideal for classic. The test was when I was dumb enough to follow my brother-in-law who had classic skis out on a frozen lake. He stayed on top with his wide skis and I sunk to the waist. My ski was turned backwards and came off as I pulled my foot out. I was so afraid that I broke the binding on the ski or ripped the binding on the boot but neither occurred! You never go wrong buying good equipment.
