The Searchers
Screenplay : Frank S. Nugent (based on the novel by Alan LeMay)
MPAA Rating : Not Rated
Year of Release : 1956
Stars : John Wayne (Ethan Edwards), Jeffrey Hunter (Martin Pawley), Vera Miles (Laurie Jorgensen), Ward Bond (Capt. Rev. Samuel Clayton), Natalie Wood (Debbie Edwards), John Qualen (Lars Jorgensen), Olive Carey (Mrs. Jorgensen), Henry Brandon (Chief Scar), Ken Curtis (Charlie McCorry)
John Ford's "The Searchers" begins with a door opening, and ends with that same door closing, but in both scenes, John Wayne stands alone. When the film begins, Wayne's character, Ethan Edwards, a lonely, complex, and embittered man, first appears on horseback as a small figure, and steadily grows larger as he approaches. At the end of the film, he stands alone, framed by the same doorway, and then slowly walks away, once again becoming the small, distant figure we first saw.
Ethan was Wayne's first anti-heroic role, and his performance is certainly one of the best of his career. "The Searchers" is a landmark Western that is at once a great, rousing adventure story, a fable about the nature of quest and fulfillment, and an exploration of the vicious racism that created such intense violence between Native Americans and encroaching white settlers. Now considered one the greatest Westerns of all time (if not the greatest) and renowned as a strong influence on directors such as Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg, "The Searchers" was completely under-appreciated when first released, failing to get a single Oscar nomination.
When we first see Ethan, he is still wearing a faded Confederate jacket. After three years of drifting (and possible criminal activity) following the Confederate Army's defeat at the end the Civil War (Ethan is still fiercely loyal to the South), he has come back to his family who has no idea where he's been. The year is 1886, and Ethan's brother, Aaron (Walter Coy), his wife, Martha (Dorothy Jordan), and their three children have established a frontier home in the vast Texas wilderness (the film was actually shot entirely in the reddish deserts of Utah). There is always constant danger in the new American frontier -- both from nature and from various groups of Indians.
During Ethan's stay with the family, a group of Comanches attacks the frontier home, killing everyone except Aaron's two daughters who are kidnapped: a teenager named Lucy (Pippa Scott) and a ten-year-old named Debbie (Lana Wood, later played as a teenager by Natalie Wood). Ethan survives because, along with Aaron's adopted part-Cherokee son, Martin Pawley (Jeffrey Hunter), and several men from a neighboring farm, he was chasing down a herd of cattle the Indians purposely stole to divert the men away from protecting the homesteads. When Ethan and Martin come back, Aaron's home is burned to the ground.
From this point, the film follows Ethan, Martin, and several other men, including Lucy's boyfriend Brad Jorgensen (Harry Carey Jr.), the Rev. Samuel Clayton (Ward Bond), and a group of Texas Rangers, as they set out to find the kidnapped girls. As the quest stretches from weeks to months to years, most of the men abandon the cause -- except for Ethan and Martin.
Early on, we learn that Lucy has been killed by the Comanches, but there is evidence that Debbie is still in the hands of the vicious Comanche Chief Scar (Henry Brandon), who is the ultimate example of the early Western depictions of the blood-thirsty Indian savage. Although hardly a politically-correct or even historically-correct depiction of a Native American Indian (the actor who plays Scar is obviously Caucasian), he makes a good villain and an interesting comparison to Ethan. Although the movie caricatures Indians in general, there is an underlying subtext about the vicious nature of racism on both sides of the coin that cannot be ignored. While the Indians are certainly depicted as "the bad guys," the white settlers, especially Ethan, are hardly perfect.
Although we don't know much about Ethan's background, we do know that he is vigilantly racist against Indians -- his hatred for them is so intense that when he finds a dead Comanche warrior, he shoots out the corpse's eyes because Indians believe they must have their vision in the spirit world, otherwise they wander eternally. During a shoot-out between Indians and Texas Rangers , Ethan continues firing into the Comanches' backs as they retreat, despite protests from the other men fighting by his side. And, although he hates them, Ethan is not above adopting brutal Indian techniques like scalping -- his lust for vengeance knows no bounds.
The motives behind Ethan's drive to find Debbie are deep, complex, and not always genuine. Although at first "The Searchers" seems like a typical "white man rescuing his women from the Indians" story, it is much more than that. The entire search and its justification is completely turned upside down when we discover that Ethan doesn't want to save Debbie, but rather he wants to kill her because she has been peacefully living with the Indians as a sqaw, so he no longer considers her "white." Despite Ethan's protests that he wants to continue the search alone, Martin tags along with him for years, because Martin knows that he will have to protect Debbie from Ethan if she is ever found. Therefore, although partners in the search, Ethan and Martin are destined to become enemies once the search is fulfilled.
"The Searchers" was based on a novel by Alan LeMay, and the screenplay was written by Frank S. Nugent, John Ford's son-in-law. Nugent and Ford worked extremely well together -- they collaborated on 11 films in 15 years, including such classics as "She Wore A Yellow Ribbon" (1949) and "The Quiet Man" (1952). In "The Searchers," they managed to create an indelible story populated with difficult characters. Although some of the film's humor comes off as a bit goofy and misplaced, the majority of Nugent's script is focused and taut if a bit melodramatic, right down to the final scene.
Ford was already a legendary director by the time he made this film (he had already won all four of his Best Director Oscars), and "The Searchers" shows him in his finest form. One of the interesting things to note is how skillfully Ford and Nugent handle the film's violent subject matter without showing violence on-screen.
For instance, when Ethan discovers Lucy's desecrated body, we never see the corpse. In fact, we don't even see him discovering the corpse. Instead, Ford gives us two scenes: first, Ethan returns from exploring, thoroughly distraught and horrified. Martin and Brad try to get him to explain what happened, but Ethan refuses, only saying, "I'll never go back there again." At this point, neither the audience nor Ethan's comrades have any idea what he saw.
Later in the film, Brad thinks he's found Lucy, but it turns out to be an Indian wearing her dress. At this point, Ethan is forced to admit he found Lucy's body, and when Brad tries to get him to elaborate, he barks, "What do want me to do? Draw you a picture? As long as you live, don't ever ask me to tell you about what they did to her!" The fact that Ethan -- a hardened man who fought in both the Civil War and numerous Indian battles and doesn't think twice about shooting the eyes out of a corpse -- would be this disturbed by the state of Lucy's body when he found her, creates an indelible and horrific impression in the viewer's mind that could never be justified with visuals, no matter how graphic.
Ford also does a masterful job of filming the Indian attack on the Edwards' home without ever showing the attack itself. Instead, he uses the build-up of suspense preceding the attack -- a group of birds becoming spooked and flying away, small noises around the house, strange shadows, all of which is bathed in the harsh, blood-red glow of the setting sun -- to create a palpable sense of violence in the air. When Ethan and Martin arrive to find the house in flames, it isn't hard to imagine how vicious the battle was.
"The Searchers" is a perfect example of genre filmmaking taken to new levels -- it was one of the first Westerns to explore complex moral issues and myths concerning the frontier, and it paved the way for such later masterpieces as Sam Peckinpah's "The Wild Bunch" (1969) and Clint Eastwood's "Unforgiven" (1992). Cinematographer Winton C. Hoch captures the vast, sprawling desert wilderness in grand Technicolor fashion -- this is a movie that was meant to be seen on the big screen. Its visuals work perfectly in tandem with the grand, operatic story, creating a complicated, emotionally-driven film that has and will continue to endure as one of the great American cinematic experiences.

Picle - a new way to record memories
Sometimes an app comes around that really stands out. Made by Many's Alex Harding has created a little gem with Picle. Yes there are hundreds of photo apps where you can add filters like a true hipster, but none that record the audio at the time.

The arid climate makes it one of the hottest spots in the world, the temperature regularly soaring above 100°F (38°C), especially between June and September. So those who cannot take the heat are best advised to travel to Phoenix during the winter months when temperatures are slightly milder.

Phoenix © Phoenix VCB
Arizona's capital city, Phoenix, has risen from the mythical ashes of an ancient agricultural Indian village to become a sprawling modern metropolis, the sixth largest city in the USA. Its rapid urban growth has filled what is known as the 'Valley of the Sun', encompassing the neighbouring towns of Scottsdale, Mesa and Tempe as suburbs and is America's fastest-growing urban centre, claiming to have more five-star hotels than any other city in the USA.
With luxurious resorts and spas, glitzy shopping plazas, upmarket restaurants and superb golf courses, together with over 300 days of sunshine a year, the area has become a popular winter getaway for the rest of the country. However while some may know it as a retirement community, it is home to both the University of Phoenix and the University of Arizona as well as over a dozen other colleges, ensuring a huge student population of roughly 200,000.
Phoenix has a number of interesting museums, including the Heard Museum of Native American culture and the Phoenix Art Museum. A scattering of parks, a wide variety of restaurants, and a well-developed arts community makes a vacation in Phoenix an attractive prospect for travellers of all ages.
Phoenix's greatest attraction however, is its location: surrounded by a vast cactus-studded desert and the magnificent scenery of the Red Rock Country around nearby Sedona, whose landscape of canyons, pinnacles and red cliffs have been the setting for numerous 'Wild West' films and novels. The Apache Trail is a winding scenic drive that passes through some of the beautiful rugged terrain of central Arizona, passing ghost towns, ancient ruins and the Superstitious Mountains.

EMD Serono and Pfizer Announce FDA Approval of Rebif® Rebidose® (interferon beta-1a) - The majority of patients found Rebif Rebidose easy to use in a user trial
Rockland, MA and New York/PR Newswire/Jan 3
EMD Serono, Inc., a subsidiary of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, and Pfizer Inc. announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Rebif Rebidose (interferon beta-1a), a single-use auto-injector for the self-administration of Rebif, a disease-modifying drug used to treat relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS).
"We are pleased to announce the FDA has approved Rebif Rebidose which provides people living with relapsing MS another option to meet their injection needs," said James Hoyes, president of EMD Serono, Inc. "The introduction of Rebif Rebidose underscores our commitment to the MS community and to our investment in the development of delivery devices to assist with ease of use and support those living with MS."
Rebif Rebidose was evaluated in a 12-week Phase IIIb multicenter, open-label, single-arm study for the self-administration of Rebif with respect to ease of use, patient satisfaction and acceptability, and functional reliability. In the trial, patients with relapsing MS, who were receiving Rebif 44 microgram three times weekly for more than 12 weeks, continued MS therapy using Rebif Rebidose for 12 weeks. The results of the Rebif Rebidose user trial showed that the majority of patients found the device easy to use.
"Over the past two decades, treatment of relapsing MS has advanced and interferons such as Rebif have remained an established treatment option," said Liz Barrett, president, North America, Pfizer Specialty Care.
"Rebif has a well-established safety profile with 18 years of clinical trial and patient experience. We are proud to offer another delivery option for Rebif with the approval of Rebif Rebidose in the United States."
Rebif Rebidose (interferon beta-1a) was designed with the objective to assist with ease of use and to offer patients an alternative delivery option. Rebif Rebidose will be available in a monthly pack in two different doses, 22 micrograms and 44 micrograms, and in a titration pack. Rebif Rebidose will be available in the U.S. in early 2013.
With this approval, all three delivery options of Rebif (prefilled syringes, Rebiject II and Rebif Rebidose) will be available in the U.S. to provide a range of options to meet the needs of patients treating their relapsing forms of MS with Rebif. Those living with MS can learn more about Rebif Rebidose and other Rebif product offerings by talking with their physician, calling MS LifeLines toll-free at 1-877-447-3243 or visit www.Rebif.com. For additional information about Rebif, please consult the Prescribing Information and Medication Guide.

Rarely, it seems, are there graceful losers when Homeowners Association go to war. Some board members who can't accept their defeat and scratch and claw trying to remain in power.
We were witness to that Tuesday in 4th Judicial District Court.
Judge Larry Schwartz presided as ousted Crystal Park community HOA board members desparately tried to retain their seats on the board.
It's kind of sad, really.
The community had just voted to flush the board by an overwhelming majority. A recall group collected 187 votes to oust the six board members. Just 20 voted to retain the board.
But there they were in court, their attorney trying to argue all the reasons they should remain on the volunteer board.
In the words of the late Hunter Thompson, it was all a lot of "niggling gibberish."
Schwartz didn't want to rehash all the battles that led to the recall effort. I've written about some of the issues that divide the 220 homeowners on 2,000 wooded, mountainside acres.
Folks in the lower park — many are older, longer-tenured residents — object to spending by the previous board to create a volunteer fire department.
The department was pushes mostly by residents in the upper reaches of the park. Many of them have lived in the park a shorter amount of time.
But Schwartz didn't want to hear all the history.
He was there to determine if the recall election was legal. Did residents have "cause" for a recall? Did they follow the law in gathering proxies? Was their request for a special board meeting valid? Was their use of an independent account to certify the results proper?
His answer? Yes, yes and yes. The people have spoken. The vote is legit. The old board is out and the new, interim board, is in. Only until elections can be held to find permanent replacements at the regular annual meeting this fall.
Check out my earlier blog on this topic. And here's a link to the recall group's blog.
Now, on to the Woodmoor Improvement Association.
Woodmoor is one of the largest HOA communities in Colorado.
I first wrote about the WIA and its board power struggles in January 2009. At that time, five board members had resigned in the prior months.
I talked to three previoius WIA board presidents who took turns criticizing the current board and its president, George McFadden. They called him "King George."
Things got so bad in Woodmoor that a group of dissidents organized a coup this past January. A slate of three candidates ran against a slate of McFadden allies. The dissidents won by a huge margin. They joined three sitting board members to oust McFadden from the presidency. Next they got busy undoing many of his policies. Here's my blog from that episode.
In the months after the election, McFadden and his two remaining board allies, Larry Goad and Mari Robbins, went missing in action.
They just didn't show up for board meetings. So, in May, the board bounced them out and in June replacements were elected.
Funny thing is, McFadden, Goad and Rollins are angry. They say their ouster was illegal.
They wrote an "open letter" to the residents of Woodmoor protesting their removal. They even called on the new WIA president Chuck Maher to resign. Here's the letter from the July edition of Our Community News.
I had a hard time reconciling in my mind how the three could be "faithful board members" when they never even show up. So I tried to call McFadden to ask him about the seeming contradiction.
As in the past, he declined to talk to me.
But he sent me a letter in which he explains his position:

Himalayan Dog Chew- Large
Submit a review
Customer Reviews:
Himalayan Dog Chew
This product was recommended to me and I am very glad I tried it. My dog loves them and I think she will be excited that they now come in a multi-pack. :)
Tracie Marks
Good for some dogs...
This is a wonderful product, but my dogs didn't really take to it. Because it's so long-lasting, it's certainly worth buying one to try it out.
This is a hit!
My 4 y.o. yellow Lab Charlie gets bored easily. He likes bully sticks, but likes to try new things. I've never seen a treat like these, and when it arrived, Charlie got to open the package. He got very excited when he sniffed this new scent. Like a puppy, he cavorted around the room with his brand new treat. He's a chewer, and this lasted almost a week. As it got smaller, he spent less time with it, but he chewed it down to 2 small pieces.
Also, it was clean and didn't smell up the house like some treats can. It was good for his teeth and gums too.
Lasted about 2 hours
i gave one to each of my great danes and they plowed through them in about 2 hours. It lasted longer than any other chew besides straight up bones.
Great Dane mom
My French Bulldog Frank just adores these!!! He really becomes entranced when one is nearby. He'll chew for hours ignoring everything else! If he knows it's on the counter, he'll stand in front of the counter staring, and mewling occasionally, wanting it so badly! They are long lasting treats, and safe for frenchies. (We have to be concerned about a choking hazard...)
Lab Laster!
My 1 year old lab has chewed on one of these for at least a week. It has been the longest lasting treat that I have ever bought!
They Smell Good!!!!
I have gotten the large H. Chew for my dachshunds. They last them awhile. This is a great natural treat!!! AND it smells really good. I've been tempted to chew on them!!!;)
large chew
my 55ib lab mix could use the med or large size. he's a gnawer for a while then will drop it a while so this will last him 3-4 days til he gets it down to about 1" before i throw it away. He is allergic to beef and chicken so he really misses his raw hard butcher bones, but this is a good nonsplintering substitute.
cindy b.
So good he buried it!
My 40 lb shepherd/;ab mix puppy loved this chew! So much so that he buried it!! LOL I'm going to have to order another one to keep inside only! And it really does smell good. Like smoked gouda! :-)
Must be DELICIOUS!!
I was a little unsure when I first saw this, only because I had never heard of it, but boy am I GLAD I decided to get one! My Petit Basset is OBSESSED with this stuff! I purposely bought a size larger than he needed so that he'd have to work harder, so he'll chew it for HOURS, totally in doggie heaven!! Obviously I also benefit from all this, since I get plenty of quiet time! LOL! Awesome product!!
GREAT new treat
I have 2 Porties - one who will chew through anything in record time - and was wondering if the claims as 'long lasting' would apply to her. I am pleased to say that it took her a good 2 hours to finish! Both pups really enjoyed these & I will be ordering more.
Pat Cromwell
Long lasting for MOST
I bought this because it came highly recommended from several I know who have "serious chewers". I have an Akita who, well, when he chews you can guess the damage. He LOVED the chew - but long lasting for him? Nah. I think it lasted an hour. Tops. And he came up looking for more! I'd order more, but I'm not sure I'd say "long lasting" for all dogs. There's definitely a few exceptions - like with hard core chewers...
not a hit with my dog
it took 4 days for Charlie to get interested in this and even when he does chew on it, he loses interest in abut 5 mins because it's too hard.
A Himalayan sized hit!
My 50# husky/g.shepherd puppy loves this chew. It's lasted her a couple of days so far, and few things make it that long. I will buy more. Wish they weren't so expensive, but she's worth it!
My two pugs LOVE this chew!!! It lasted days, DOES NOT STINK, and very entertaining for them!! THANK YOU BEST BULLY STICKS ONLINE CHAT FOR SUGGESTING THIS!! We now alternate between these, bully sticks and lamb ears!!
Almost long lasting
I have two aggressive chewers (Doberman and Boxer) and I ordered this chews last week hoping it will give them at least few hoers of chew time. We received them today and boxer finished his in about 45 minutes; doberman took a whole hour. It lasted less I've expected, but they loved it and it is the longest lasting chew for them so far + there was no odor.. I think I'll order XL next time!
Don't throw away the last nub!
Once the treat gets down to the last bit (and may become a choking hazard) put it in the microwave for a minute. It puffs up like popcorn and is a new treat! No waste :-)
Smells like miso soup
My daddy finally sprung for one of these and couldn't wait for it to arrive. It's not my favorite chew but I pick it up every oe and then. It was purchased to keep me content while I recovered from my spading so I may have a change of heart when I feel better. Anybody else think they smell like miso soup?
Zola bear
Himalayan large dog chew
My 9 month Rot/Lab mix had it gone in less than 2 hours. I was disappointed it didnt last. He did enjoy it, but to expensive for that time frame.
Dog loved it
My 70 lb standard poodle/coonhound mix had this thing gone within a 1/2 hour. I was surprised. She was so enthralled with it that she ignored us the whole time we ate supper, which doesn't happen, as she usually keeps a vigil in the corner til she knows we are done. I was hoping it would last her a while longer, but she is raw fed, so used to eating frozen chicken leg quarters and raw rib bone. Regardless I will definitely order these again.

The adverse effects of 52 wind turbines on the Kessel VOR-DME in West Virginia do not justify decommissioning the navaid and weakening the area's aviation infrastructure, AOPA said.

While finding sources of green energy is a national focus, building wind turbine farms near airports creates an undue hazard. A mayor in Indiana recently protected his town's airport from a request by a local farmer to close the airport so that he could build a wind turbine farm on his property.

First this album was called Straight Outta Newport, then The Greatest GLC Album Ever… 2. Last we heard, the king chavs had settled on Safe As Fuck – so apologies if it's now some Welsh baloney. Whatever the name, the big question is: does anyone still care for wacky raps about clits, clarts and Cortinas? It's been less than a year since the GLC first set the FHM office screaming, Guns! and Wappers! for an entire month; now half our fickle staffers are sneering at the Grange Hill, Aled Jones and Will Smith samples. The joke may be wearing thin; nevertheless when The Maggot takes the mic, we listen – the underused lanky tit is the best British rapper since John Barnes. Fact.

I've just turned 50, the kids have left home, and my cat just died.
In Suggs: My Life Story the Madness frontman takes to the stage in a hilarious, yet moving, one man tour de force playing to rave reviews.
The death of Suggs' beloved cat on his fiftieth birthday triggers a personal quest to discover what happened to the father he never knew. Stunned by what he learns Suggs is taken back to his childhood on the tough streets of 1970's Soho and his first appearance on Top Of The Pops at the age of eighteen...
Is it a play? Is it stand up comedy? Is it Music Hall? Whatever it is hold on to your seats as Suggs goes on to stumble and plummet through the trap door of failure. Then trampoline back up to catch the passing trapeze of show business success!
Very funny, and delivered with a sense of timing and phrasing that many common-or-garden comics could learn much from

Great name. Just great. Regarding the Dem's and Repub's: I just heard a program about that the other day. Where once at least SOME members were friends with people from the 'other' Party (some real good, personal friends) and often could work something out, that is almost completely verboten today ... especially in the House. One step out of line, one vote against your Party Leader, results in threats of reelection funding being withheld and being slammed on TV back home by someone in YOUR party wanting your job. I guess a lot of the reason is due to instant communications, the Internet and the 24 hour News Channels.

The first day of Blizzcon 2011 had the announcement of the new World of Warcraft expansion, known as Mists of Pandaria. The expansion will come with a new playable race from the new maps, the Pandaren. As it sounds, they are a panda-like race of humanoid bears.
The new Pandaren race will be monks and the new expansion will include the following adds:
More faction and similar battle will be added and the WoW team has said that the first set of adventures in Pandaria will be in the Jade Forest and surrounds as the new continent is introduced.
Gamertube has video from Blizzcon with some visuals from the expansion.
[...] says they have a lot of faith in the new Mists of Pandaria expansion, due to release early next year. The expansion is obviously attempting to cater to and [...]
I am going to make a panda guild when the expansion is released!

Abstract: (3A94)
Session Topic: Organizing the 'Big' Communique (3A95)
With the adjournment of the OntologySummit2012_Symposium (on 13-Apr-2012) we have completed the program of this year's OntologySummit. This has been our 7th Ontology Summit, a joint initiative by NIST, Ontolog, NCOR, NCBO, IAOA & NCO_NITRD with the support of our co-sponsors. The theme adopted for this Ontology Summit was: "Ontology for Big Systems." (3A96)
The event today is our virtual postmortem session. We will be expecting participants of this year's summit, as well as members of the organizing team at this session. (3A97)
The goal of this session is to revisit the Ontology Summit that just finished, and to plan ahead for the future. We will discuss what worked and what can be improved during the 3 months of OntologySummit2012 (plus the preparation work that led up to it,) and get ideas on how to make next year's Ontology Summit even better. This meeting gives us an opportunity to develop some plans and initiatives for action that will move what we have achieved beyond the 3-month Summit itself. Further, this meeting is also an opportunity to suggest topics and themes for next year's Ontology Summit. (3A98)

The passing of Cassandra Balchin: Passionate activist, writer, colleague and friend

It is not only a great loss for us at AWID but for feminist and women's movements all over the world. Cassandra's immense contributions in building our knowledge and understanding of religious fundamentalisms and women's rights has been a central contribution to our strategies and actions and those of many others around the world.

Daily Grill - Georgetown
Online Reservations
This was my first time visiting the DG it wasn't bad food wasnt the best but I think it's a great place to have lunch. Wouldn't be my first choice to have dinner. Service was outstanding waiter was very attentive.
This restaurant is located within the Georgetown Inn. The lively bar offers great food and a nice view of the crowds strolling through Georgetown. Drinks were outstanding and dinner afterwards was delicious. The hostess was friendly and held our table without putting any pressure on us to keep our specific reservation time. We were waiting for one member of our group who was traveling in from out of town and we enjoyed the bar and great service while we waited. I am heading to DC again this weekend and will certainly enjoy meeting friends there.
Our server Albert was excellent, very attentive without being overbearing like some places. Our dishes were cooked to perfection and served in a timely manner, would definately go here again on our next visit to the area.
Food and atmosphere were very good but it took 30 minutes to be seated. I booked on Opentable 3 days prior to our reservation so it should not have come as a surprise to the restaurant a table of 7 would appear at 8pm.
Fixed price menu was outstanding. We had items from both menus in our group. All were good.
We made a reservation for a group of nine and we were seated pretty quickly, close to our time. Seating area was pretty good. All the food was very good and the service for a group was well handled. It was a well done experience which would lead me to seek out the Daily Grill again.
It was girls night out for 4, and it was capped off with a great meal! We had the $39.99 pre-fix meal. We all had the crab cake appetizer (great crab cake - no filler); 3 had the lamb (AWESOME!) and 1 had scallops (GREAT!). The cheesecake was really good and a generous portion. Our waiter, Junior, was attentive and made great recommendations. We will return!
Excellent food and excellent service. Also love this place for Sunday brunch...best in Georgetown.
Good food, good service, and a good experience. Will be back.
It was my first time in here with guests from Mongolia. We had a baby with us they made us feel comfortable. This place is family friendly. My every guest liked their order. I had salmon burger from 600 menu and I loved it. My friend had Jumbo crab cake and it was excellent.
We were celebrating my husband's birthday, and everything was outstanding. Our food was out of this world, along with the superb service. We will definitely be going back.
Best thai chicken salad of my life. It is on the lunch/brunch menu and i hope they add it to the dinner menu
Dinner on Sunday evening ater son's graduation from GW was above expectations. Food was very good, from Trout almondine to short ribs. Wine list was very limited but we still a good bottle of Malbec at a reasonable price. Deserts that were shared amoung six of us, were simply superb, fresh strawberry shortcake, carrot cake and chocolate cake. The service was friendly but not very efficient, we had to ask for silverware as there were not complete place settings at our table. The waiter seem to disappear for lengthy periods of time. Still it was very good and we plan to return again.
Talk about ups and downs! My niece's rehearsal dinner was Friday night and I was tasked with arranging a dinner for those not attending the rehearsal...I called it the Outlaw Dinner! Initially, I made a reservation for nine of us. Three weeks later I got a call that the number was actually 23. A week later, that went down to 9. The day of the dinner, that changed to 11. Well guess what? Five of us had a fantastic dinner at the Daily Grill! Jimmy was phenomenal in helping me through this roller coaster of changes...completely unflappable. Justin provided great service with humor. Thanks Daily Grill for being a fun part of a lovely weekend!
Excellent, attentive service. I recently dined there for lunch on Memorial Day and had dinner with a group there on the following Sunday night. Our group included an infant, so I appreciate the staff giving us a high chair and a bowl of mac-and-cheese, so I would suggest this restaurant as kid-friendly. Great menu! Foodies would love this place. I love the hummus trio. The entrees are all wonderful, a large selection of dishes with huge portions. The manager, Jamey, and the staff are great. I look forward to dining there again when I visit DC.
Overall, we had a great experience at Daily Grill on Saturday night. I had the pork chop with mashed potatoes and sauteed spinach, and everything was delicious. My husband had the short ribs, which he said was terrible, but other friends at the table had the short ribs, and they said theirs was very good. The food and service was oustanding!! The only negative comment is the parking issue. The gentleman that claims he is the president always gives us a hard time every time we visit Daily Grill. We had friends with us who were weirded out by him, and it was their first time at the Daily Grill. I am not sure if we will be returning due to this parking president.
This restaurant is predictable with food and service. Great for a good business lunch.
If your looking for a great meal the Daily Grill in Georgetown is for you. Their specialty meat loaf is exceptional but you must get there early as there is a limited amount a they run out quickly. The service is above board and the staff is very polite and accommodating. The wine list will fit every taste and meal choice. The atmosphere is great when they turn down the lighting and the room is filled with the sound of smooth jazz from the live band. All in all a heart place for dinner for two or a small group.
The menu on Open Table did not match what was offered when we arrived. On Saturday morning/ afternoon, brunch is the only menu offered. The waitress offered to see if the kitchen could prepare other items for us, but it seemed like quite a bother. We had hoped for the lunch menu....
The Daily Grill did a great job accommodating our group for lunch. They had a good selection of food for kids to choose from. The severs were very friendly with our children. The adults enjoyed the various entree options as well. It's in a great location in Georgetown.
Daily Grill is one of my favorites. I eat there once or twice a month. Spinach and Artichoke dip is the best in the city.
My husband and I frequent Daily Grill often due to it being a reliably good meal with a friendly waitstaff. This past time was our first happy hour there - and it was a great deal! I always recommend Daily Grill as a place to have a nice meal.
Great Service from the hostess Katrina and our waiter Cicero. Arrived 15 minutes prior to our 7 PM reservation; just in time to enjoy discounted, design your own martinis at happy hour pricing. The bartender delivered our four different custom cocktails all made to perfection. Once seated at our rectangular table for eight, we were surrounded by wait staff who were all too accommodating. Food was delicious. Three of us had the Filet Mignon with blue cheese herb crust; creative presentation cooked to perfection. Desserts were large and yummy, very shareable. Ambiance was great with live jazz playing in the background.
I had dinner with a dear friend whom I'd not seen in awhile. We have a pattern of drifting apart tending to our busy lives, and each time we reconnect, we choose The Daily Grill - Georgetown. Once again, we were not disappointed. The food, service and ambiance were just right. Perhaps most important of all is that we were not rushed to end our evening, and so we were able to linger and chat.
Daily Grill -Georgetown was the perfect spot to celebrate; we came back as we were there last year for the same occasion!
Stopped here with my little brother for lunch one day after he couldn't decide what he wanted to eat. I ordered the grilled salmon and asparagus and he got this MASSIVE burger with bacon and thousand island dressing and fries on the side, and the entire meal only ended up being about $25 plus tip, which for Georgetown is unheard of. The food came out so quickly and was delicious, but then for some reason our server disappeared on us and a few other tables, which seemed odd because the restaurant wasn't all that busy (we got there a little early for lunch), and as a server at a different restaurant I assumed he would put more time and effort into the few table he has. Overall still a great place for food, and will return.
We went to this location for an early dinner before attending a show. The service was good, and the food was tasty. The waiter was pretty laid back, but friendly, and he took care of us in a timely manner.
Service in bar was a tad slow when we stopped in early for pre-dinner drinks and apps. We were the only patrons at 7:30 pm on a Sunday night, and had to wait for service for almost 10 minutes. Our situation changed dramatically as we were seated for dinner at 8, and Frank our server was SUPER. He was very friendly and helpful with explaining items on the menu. Good sized salads ($6.75 each) and FANTASTIC Filet Mignon ($32.95) were well received. I had Meatloaf Dinner ($17.95) which was great as well. Fruit Cobbler dessert ($7.50) was shared by the four of us, and was superb!. Does not look like much from the outside, but once inside the dining room you certainly get your money's worth.
I enjoyed my peaceful Sunday evening meal with not too much to make it a formal dinner but not enough taken away to make it a sweat suit dinner. This was a great dining experience with very good food and ample portions for fulfillment and next day lunch.
We hosted family visiting from out of state. The table and ambiance were perfect and the food was very, very good-- all as usual. We live in the neighborhood and always take family and friends(if they have been good) to the Daily Grill. We know that the varied menu choices all will be very good and the service is excellent. Why go anywhere else when we know that the Daily Grill is reliable on all counts?!!
My husband and I try to visit Daily Grill several times a year, and this time was disappointing. I always order their pork chop, and this time it was very fatty, which was disappointing, otherwise, everything else was great.
This Daily Grill is definitely a great neighborhood restaurant, but it seems there is too much competition of M Street restaurants in the evening. While people stand in line to be seated in a small cramped restaurant on M Street, the Daily Grill has room on most evenings. They also have Jazz orchestra on the evenings, which provides a great ambiance. Food is good, and the servers are very friendly. Perfect for a romantic outing, but also very good for a family meal with kids.
Alberto, who always waits our table, is "The Best!"
My cousin was visiting town on a very tight schedule and could only meet for breakfast. We were seated immediately (I had a reservation but did not need one) and the menu was perfect. I had requested a quiet table since one of us is hearing impaired. That request was accommodated. She had the eggs Benedict and I had smoked salmon eggs Benedict. The meal was perfectly prepared and promptly served. Servings were ample. The coffee was excellent (and I am a discriminating coffee drinker.) Price was on the high end of reasonable but nothing out of the norm for Georgetown and still a good value for a high quality meal. I will go back here again for lunch or dinner.
We had breakfast here on a Sunday morning before brunch started. The food was great, coffee hot and plentiful, and great service.
Granola and yogury -- excellent; egg white omelet -- excellent; service -- excellent.
Came here for a steak w/ our college student. Steaks were excellent as was the service. Very satisfied.
Everything was great about the restaurant except the noise level. I have very good hearing yet I could hardly hear the conversation at our table and on top of the general noise level from the people in the restaurant there was a jazz band playing at the bar which is not separate from the restaurant area. I don't think the music added anything to the place just made the noise level worse!
Food was outstanding. Waiter was VERY helpful with suggestions for the table. I would definitely return!!
It was so good Friday night that we went back Saturday night to try other entrees. Service was great, even got our waiter's name so we can request him on our next visit. Definitely will be a favorite when visiting my son down in Georgetown.
Food was excellent and the service was outstanding. The atmosphere was just right . . .quiet enough for conversation and lively enough for a fun atmosphere.
The service was excellent. Valet parking made an easy in and out. The cobb salad was done very nicely. Overall, it was a good experience all around.
We celebrated our daughters birthday and had an amazing meal. Great service timed just right.
This was my first Thanksgiving dining out with my family and we chose the Daily Grill since the service and menu are always top notch. We were over the moon after dinner having enjoyed a great menu and impeccable service. We left the restaurant with left-overs to share and still full of fun to go visiting other relatives into the evening. No hassle waiting for our table. Our reservation was honored as soon as we arrived and the evening continued from there. I cannot thank you enough. Great food AND great service is not easy to find in this city. Keep up the good work!!
We had a large group and the service was fantastic -- would come back anytime - thanks!
We chose the Daily Grill because of location close to work, availability of parking, and moderate prices for the neighborhood. The food was excellent: artichoke dip with herbed crisps of french bread; freshly made hummus with pita triangles; mahi mahi,chcken pot pie, tenderloin of beef and a few other entrees I could not see. Desserts were surprisingly excellent: tart key lime pie with whipped cream and an amazing brownie with carmelized pecans, vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. Our drinks were great: gin and tonics; beautiful Manahattan; and very good red wines by the glass. It was not too busy on this Thursday early evening, so our conversations were not difficult. I will definitely return here for dinner again.

Sad to say so many clients of our web agency fail to make back-ups even after years of repeated warnings (and guess who gets the panicked calls to rescue something when it all goes terribly wrong...) that I think it is much better to jam a DLP down all of their throats. I'm thinking I might not even tell them about it. Just install it for all our clients and then act the role of data recovery god when the inevitable happens.

Cavuto is the best in the business. better than O´Reilly et al because he´s smart and unafraid yet civil
I saw this "interview". He asked her over and over again "what would you cut" since she said she was willing to cut spending. She would not answer. Cavuto is the best and I am sorry my cable does not have the FOX business station.
All we neeed to know is she´s all for cutting the GNP in order to buy votes.
The Democrats are deliciously vulnerable to derision for their patently delusional beliefs. Cavuto does it oh so well.
Drat! Unfortunate timing on my part! I happened to catch the very beginning of the interview yesterday, but as she simply dithered around and around with meaningless words which were going nowhere, I finally couldn't take it anymore and I switched channels. Kudos to Cavuto for not tearing his hair out!
She was so dumb that her constituents had to be embarrassed by her..it was beyond belief,and I would have cut her off way before Cavuto did.
The vile beast told Cavuto to "shut up" at one point so she could continue spewing her idiotic rhetoric. She is pathetic and beneath contempt.
Who are the idiots that elected this pathetic slug-woman to Congress?
Why the apology?
It´s because the Democrats have no intention of doing any meaningful spending cuts. Just like they did with Bush the Elder, they´ll get their tax increases and the promised cuts will never materialize. As always, they´ll pull the football away as Charlie Brown Boehner runs up to kick it.
The congresswoman should apologize for wasting Neil´s time.
Good for Cavuto! No apology necessary.
It is fairly plain to see that she was expectinng the usual softball questions with the media agreeing to everything and covering any mistakes.Did she think the interview was on MSNBC or CNN? Did they tell her the interviewer was named Neil not Soladad or Andrea or Chrisie?The propaganda media will begin whining in 3...2...1
Good for Cavuto.
This woman and family got great wealth due to an affirmative action no bid contract for the concession shops at the DFW airport worth millions every year.
These morons need to stick with MSNBC where their stupidity and obfuscating will be showcased and applauded. Cavuto isn´t going to put up with it.

Summary and Book Reviews
The English Monster: Summary and book reviews of The English Monster by Lloyd Shepherd
Shepherd's devilishly clever debut isn't just a swashbuckler, nor is it just an historic thriller or a police procedural or even an allegory with a soupçon of magical realism. No. It's an elegant admixture of several genres and a smashing feat of derring-do that roller coasters between the 16th and 19th centuries. And although there is a satisfying conclusion, it is less important than the ride. With all its twists and turns, there is a singular free fall that clinches the story, making the whole thing exceptional. (Reviewed by Donna Chavez). Full Review (884 words). Media Reviews

This works much like the recently released PS1toPS3 GUI (for PSone games XMB direct booting) that was recently released. You will have a PC app that will create the PKG that will also add all required files in order to run. So it is not even required to have the official RetroArch installed However this is not for someone who wants to put a full romset on the XMB. I did however manage to get over 250 roms PKGs installed with no slow down or issues. To see this process of direct booting of a Retro Rom please take a look at the videos below from fellow tester UnknownArchive. Also be sure to take a look at some of the artwork I have uploaded/created. More to come when this is released. There should still plenty of surprises regarding this release. So stay tuned here at your #1 source for Scene News.
- Easy Access to boot ROMs from the XMB
- Great for kids.family & friends who are not familiar with the booting of Roms in RetroArch/mM.
- Brings some Retro Love to the XMB.
- PKGs Installable on Internal or External via Game Data Tool
- GUI that creates the PKG will be fully customizable:
Title on the XMB, TitleID, ICON0.PNG, PIC1.PNG, SND0.AT3, & ICON1.PAM
Also be sure to take a look at the artwork created by STLcardsWS and some that was provided by UnknownArchive LINK
(some artwork was found on the net and re-sized original creators unknown)

I would like to personally Thank
The Developer of this App/mod to RetroArch
@Sqaurepusher2: Along will all the RetroArch Developers
@Tranced for the name RetroXMB
@Tranced /@TitanTX for the various RetroXMB Logo's.
