ZUT! On Fourth
Online Reservations
At the last minute, I was looking for that perfect spot. Comfortable, not too far away, good food, not too sleepy scene, decent wine list and I found it in Zut. Had the beet salad and lamb chops and they were excellent. Service was friendly, parking easy, open air environment. Great spot for couples, families and small groups. I would definitely go back. Thumbs up!
We went to Zut for our Anniversary and we were welcomed with a nice table and outstanding food, drinks, and service. The salmon was amazing! We had a great time.
Food was delicious and enjoyed by all 4 in party! Fried brussel sprouts were fantastic, mezes plate was terrific, and fried smelt was delicious. Hamburger and fries, pizza with sausage and egg, red quinoa, arugula salad and side of fries were all excellent. Beer and prosecco were also good. The chocolate budino cake was so rich, but so delicious. The sundae was also great. Enjoyed the decor and ambience of the restaurant. The service was top notch and very accommodating, splitting plates that were shared. We will definitely return!
We shared the Meze plate (eggplant, hummus, roasted red bell peppers), scallop crudo, and arugula salad with nectarines and fromage blanc. For the entrees, we enjoyed the whole petrale sole and lamb chops. All dishes well prepared...and definitely would return again to try other dishes.
The staff was very welcoming, but it took awhile for our drinks to arrive. The brodo, beet salad, and brusselsprouts were well done, and the tomato pesto pizza was nicely charred. We ended up ordering a bunch of appetizers and shared a pizza. Everything was fresh and tasty, but not outstanding. All in all a pleasant experience, with warm lighting at night.
A friend of mine from Marin Co. remembered how much she had loved their pizzas from many months ago - so off we went for a great dinner together - with their arugula salad, two delicious pizzas and a great glass of local Berkeley Trummer Pils beer. I often feel full after several slices of pizza, but somehow at Zut! we pretty much ate both pizzas until there was no more. We loved everything we ate, the atmosphere, the wait person and thought it would be fun to sit at the bar another time - it looked fun. I live about a 10 min. walk away and look forward to going again soon - definitely recommended! And one day for a special occasion - the Ribeye steak and a good glass of red wine sounds very appealing.
We invited friends for an outdoor brunch and were quite pleased with the food and service. It was their first visit to Zut and they said they would definitely return. We have been several times and continue to return. We love that our dog is welcome outside. A small suggestion. Since it was brunch, my husband was missing a bread or muffin basket on the table while we were waiting for our food. Nice to have a munchie with your coffee or morning cocktail.
We were four friends to start which soon became five. A chair was added without any problem; we were in no hurry to eat and wanted to socialize and have drinks which we did for more than an hour; our server was wonderful, never hurried us and let us enjoy our get together; the food, when we eventually ordered,was all good...sole and lamb and riisotto were the main dishes ordered. Zut is a great central spot to meet for out of Towners; wonderful ambience and a nice bar.
Zut! has become my wife's go to place in Berkeley. Every meal has been great and the quality and freshness of the food is amazing. It can be noisy inside but a good noisy, people having a good time. Enjoy the food and leave room for dessert.
I have had a late lunch here, as well as brunch and I've dropped in at the bar after a day of shopping with my daughter. On a nice day, when the windows are open to the street, it is really wonderful; I am always on the lookout for al fresco dining. They have lovely salads and good pizzas, all of which are great for splitting (their portions are not huge - but it is great for the non-overeater me). Fresh food with locally curated ingredients. A wonderful addition to 4th Street.
Been there a few times over the years & feel food is improving. Service was good this time but not always.
The food at Zut! has gotten alot better. We had 3 salads, the Meze and the Quinoa dish (outstanding) and everything was good. My only complaint is the noise level and every time we asked for something or ordered something the waitress said "thank you." She was good and attentive but it became repetitive.
Four of us went for brunch on a Sunday. Our table was ready when we arrived, outside as requested since the weather was great (though they do have heaters out there). Inside is nice too, though pretty noisy if they're crowded. Food is great; lots of good items on the brunch menu, and more on the weekday lunch menu. (The brussels sprouts on the lunch menu are a real favorite of mine!) The service is just about perfect: lots of attention, but not obtrusive, from very friendly and efficient staff. The setting is great: under trees, right on Fourth Street. Very comfortable; we had a great time!
This site has had many fine restaurants over the years and Zut! continues the pattern. Friendly service, excellent food. Yes, you must try the roasted Brussells sprouts. Excellent burgers and a very creative range of options
Zut! is fast becoming a favorite lunch place for me. I like the food, the service and the location. Going at 1 PM is the best time I found out, and will stick to it.
7:00 on a Friday, no way to get in without a reservation! Great atmosphere, food and service, if a bit on the loud side. We had a wonderful waiter, who had just moved to the Bay Area from Florida, who realized we needed to talk and did his best not to disturb us, yet kept things moving. Delicious food and drink, thanks to his suggestions; Despite it being very busy we were not rushed and enjoyed our evening....Thanks!
The food was seasonal and creative. I love it when you look at a menu and everything is delicious sounding. We settled on sharing family style to maximize the sampling. The Brussell sprouts were amazing and strongly recommended. The beet salad was also a big hit and the pizzas were fun to share as well. The only thing that was not great, was that we were in the center table and the sun was brutal on our guests. I would suggest outside dining or something along the wall or at the bar.
My husband and I had lunch at Zut and it was wonderful. The food was delicious. I had a lovely broth soup with fresh carrots, onions and Eng. peas, followed by the Caesar salad with crutons to die for. My hubby also had the soup, followed by a green salad with dried figs and vinaigrette and he loved it! The waiter was perfect, attentive but not hovering, and he brought us french bread with olive oil. Zut is quite noisy, but if you sit in the bar area, it's much quieter and fun to sit on stools at those high tables.
We liked the place and would come back. It was lively and fun. Probably wouldn't order the pizza - it was OK but not great. The Brussels sprouts were delicious and so was the Cesar salad.
All seven of us had wonder meals. Our two vegetarians were graciously accommodated. The burger was excellent.
Delicious food--check. Great staff--check. Super friendly--check. Consistent--check. Great wines--check. Great cocktails--check. We eat at Zut regularly and love it. It's solid. Delicious food, great staff, friendly service. Did I mention delicious?
Perfectly placed on Fourth Street to take advantage of the many local shoppers. Great small plates, nice service. Good bar and coffee.
Zut exceeded our expectations. great service, food and drinks. THis is the place on 4rth Street to start your Sunday prior or in between shopping.
Zut is really good but not great. Portion sizes are small, we all commented on that. It's fine with me if the protein part is small but it would be nice if they could be more generous with the vegetable ingredients. menu is small too - lots of vegetarian stuff which is good for some people but not appealing to me. We had asked for a quiet table and a loud group got seated right next to us.
We had a very pleasant lunch. Two of us had the ahi salad, which was very good. All three of us were pleased.....
We enjoyed our first meal at Zut! very much - as did our guest from Boston. We shared the brussell sprout appetizer and the Greek chicken soup, which were delicious Three of us had 3 different entrees and enjoyed all of them - risotto, quinoa, and the rotisserie chicken. We also shared the apple crisp for dessert, which was delicious as well. It was Halloween and our costumed waitperson was charming, though the restaurant was quite noisy for us as we tried to have a business discussion. Nevertheless, we will return to sample other things on the interesting menu!
Meet my cousin for a lunch at Zuti, good choice for lovers of quality food. I had soup and salad, and she had main meal salad. Very tasty! Pleasant being on 4th St. with all the hub bub of the block. I would recommend this restaurant.
Delicious and creative food and wine. Not fussy. A great value across the board. Have been for dinner three times and brunch once. All were great. Service always accommodating. Recommend: Rotisserie chicken (half chicken, lightly smoked, juicy, crispy skin and served with mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts) Pizza (brick oven, thin crust, fresh ingredients, great sauce). Fried smelt app. (flavorful, light batter, perfectly cooked) Caesar salad Eggs Benedict (brunch, perfect hollandaise, ask for extra) Beignets (brunch, hot, dusted with sugar and served with amazing plum jam) Chocolate Boudin Cake with peanut butter ice cream Apple Crisp with ice cream Skip: Lentil soup (mexican flavors, decent but unremarkable) Halibut (overcooked, bland)
We enjoyed a light and lively meal. Fresh ideas, understated preparation, clean presentation. Loved every bite! The mezze platter was a wonderful treat and the stuffed calamari was a winner.
We have been here twice once for brunch and once for a late lunch/supper. For both brunch and lunch the food was quite good with a couple of real treasures mixed in with other solid dishes. The location and ambiance are very good. On the down side the tables are very tight and staff always seems overworked (moving too quickly or not returning to check on the table for extended periods of time) For food we like the following: Brunch - Beignets (a real treat), Eggs Benedict, and Chorizo Hash Lunch - Fried Brussels Sprouts (nice surprise), Burger (really one of the best in Berkeley), Sausage & Farm Egg Pizza Dessert - Apple Crisp, Muscovado Pot De Creme (awesome)
I used my OpenTable app to make a reservation and my wife and I were seated promptly at the appointed time. We had wait staff service quickly. I enjoyed the breadth of the wine list and found some great wine/food pairings. It was a chilly night so both of us started with the heritage carrot soup and it was delicious. The soup could have been a touch warmer. We had the petrale sole and it was cooked perfectly. We also had a flatbread and the topping and crust combination were excellent. Service was attentive without being overbearing. Parking is a little challenging in the neighborhood so if you go allow yourself some time ahead of your reservation for circling around. Otherwise I will be back to this restaurant. Cheers!
Family celebrations, pre-theater dinners, business lunches, or whenever we just want to treat ourselves. Zut! has consistently excellent food, capable and friendly service and the 4th Street location is convenient (low-stress easy parking). We order the things we love again & again: brussels sprouts, padron peppers w/kasseri, pizza w/sausage & egg, King salmon, Zut burger, rotisserie chicken. On our latest visit we rediscovered the killer mussels & ordered a cioppino-style halibut since the salmon wasn't on the menu. It was a worthy alternate, clams notwithstanding.
Had a chance to visit Zut during travel to California on business. This was my second visit, having been so impressed with the prior dinner. Long story short, I think we've converted some other fellow work travelers from their usual spot to Zut! Great food, great service, great place! The brussel sprouts are a must!
We to try Zut! for dinner--spur of the moment on a chilly weekday evening. The restaurant was warm and welcoming. The wood, lighting, and warm colors create a pleasant environment. The atmosphere is casual with shoppers and neighborhood folks stopping in. The food and drink menus are diverse. We didn't try the cocktails but they have an interesting list. Selection of wines by the glass was good. Bar service was a little slow--they were busy at the bar as well as in the restaurant. I ordered fried Brussels sprouts for my starter. They were delicious but a bit much for one person. My husband ordered squash soup, which was delicious. For my main dish, I had the red quinoa which was also yummy. We'll definitely be back.
Breakfast/brunch menu was small but tasty. Beignets were very hot and delicious and good to share. Eggs benedict dishes were tasty and I liked the apple sausage. Service was friendly and attentive.
We had an excellent time at Zut! All the food was spot on - the petrale sole in particular. The portions ample, prices fair, and excellent service. I would say the 2 detractors were the price of the side of Brussels sprouts $9 for probably less than 10 Brussels spouts? And I thought the wine list did not offer many great values, though I did enjoy the elegant stemware. And as a bonus 4th street lights are amazing. I would return in a heartbeat, and I would not have said this after my prior visit- much improved! Bravo!
Good food, friendly service, fun atmosphere particularly during the holiday season with beautiful lighting on Fourth Street!
A great day to visit 4th Street -- you can actually PARK! The fixed price menu of $65 (plus $25 for wine parings) was a good value. The options were well thought out. We dined at 3pm; the restaurant wasn't completely full, but nearly so, and the atmosphere was festive -- we were still there at dusk, so got to enjoy the outdoor lights . The service was great -- they were not short-staffed, the meal moved along smoothly, but we didn't feel rushed at all.
Their Thanksgiving Day prix-fix was very good. It was especially fun seeing the Fourth Street holiday lights right outside the window. Two minor complaints: My companion and I were served our entrees at entirely different times -- he had the soup, while I had the entree, then he had the entree while I had the salad. The waiter explained that mysalad was served after the meal "in the French style." I know that's how the French do it, but, for this particular holiday meal, we would have preferred to eat our dinners at the same time. My other complaint concerned the dessert. The bread pudding was delicious -- except that it was enough for 3 people. I don't usually complain about large portions, but in this case less would have been better.
We had a lovely Thanksgiving lunch. Perfect menu choices for the occasion, beautifully executed and served. Service from beginning to end was warm, efficient, friendly yet unobtrusive. Seconds were offered, but not taken, as the portions were generous but so delicious it was tempting. We love Zut! anytime, but the atmosphere was very special on Thursday.
The kids loved the pizzas, and the roast chicken with mashed potatoes was delicious, if a little dry. Bucatini was devoured. My risotto was a little bland. The surroundings are pleasant, however, and the service was very attentive. Good wine list. Some areas of the restaurant are noisier than others, I recommend the covered patio (has a retractable roof).
This restaurant was amazing! The food was incredible as well as very creative.
My wife and I met my brother and his wife for dinner Sunday following Thanksgiving, since we could not get together on "turkey day." My brother's wife is Italian and a very picky eater. She really enjoyed a salad and pizza, so ate with more gusto than any other restaurant we have been to over the years. Needless to say, we all enjoyed our dinners. My wife and I tend to be very moderate drinkers, usually having a glass of wine with a meal. Since it was the holidays, we tried cocktails. They were terrific. Our evening was truly a family fun event. Two thumbs up for the food, service and ambiance. We'll be back!
Zut! is a great place for a special lunch. There are pizzas, full meals and small plates. There are excellent choices depending on how big your appetite is.
With 4th street so festive during the holidays Zut is a great place to take friends. I have eaten there twice in the past month and have always had a great experience. Service is wonderful and food always good; you are never rushed but make sure to make a reservation!
My friend and I came to celebrate a birthday early. I found the restaurant to exceed my expectations. Nadia, the hostess was a delight and our waitress very knowledgeable and efficient. The food was amazing! Would recommend to anyone looking for a nice casual dinner.
Food is consistently up to standards, scene was festive and fun. We've had her before and always totally love our waitperson (warm, professional).
We had a really great evening with 5 friends, none of whom had been to the restaurant before. There were a few long waits to order and checking on us, but overall the service was very good, and our server was generally attentive without being intrusive during the time we were there . The food was excellent - we each ordered an entree and shared appetizers & desserts. It's a little bit noisy, which bothered a couple in our party, but I thought the atmosphere was lively. All said that they would return.
This is the second time I've been to Zut. It was just as good as I remember it. Wonderful food. Great wine. Very good service. I was there with two friends- one of whom was celebrating her birthday- and our waiter took care of the dessert we ordered. We all thought that was above and beyond. I'd highly recommend this great spot to anyone.
Great balanced fish dish - Halibut and Manila Clams, Fennel, tomatoes, potatoes in Saffron wine broth. Perfect portion, light, flavorful.

What Happened On Easter Island — A New (Even Scarier) Scenario
Whatever happened on Easter Island, it wasn't good. Polynesians landed there, farmed, thrived, built their famous statues, and then things went very bad, very fast. Sixteen million trees vanished. What happened? Was this a case of ecological collapse? Not exactly, say two anthropologists. It was, arguably, worse than that.

If there were railroad tracks between Barre and Montpelier, Barre would be "on the other side" of them. It's a working-class city that sprang up around the region's remarkable granite quarries, which are still producing world-class stone. The original laborers were immigrants from Italy and Scotland. This museum documents the history, geology and technology of the dangerous trade that cut many Vermont lives short.
Located in the Pavillion Office building, this museum offers a great primer on the forces that have shaped Vermont. The permanent 5000-square-foot exhibit "tells the story of Vermont's people from 1600 to the present," according to the website. "Using Vermont's motto, 'Freedom and Unity,' as its thematic cornerstone, the exhibition shows visitors how Vermonters have always balanced individual freedoms and community."
The Main Street Museum in White River Junction offers an interesting mix of international and quirky Americana curiosities, such as this summer's "Tramp and Hobo Symposium."

Use any of the three brand-new Pokémon TCG: Black & White theme decks to battle against fourteen virtual TCG players in three exciting Leagues. Pokémon TCGO: Trainer Challenge launches in April at www.pokemontcg.com.
The Pokémon TCG: Black & White expansion 10-card booster packs are now available in major retail stores nationwide. The four boosters feature brand-new Pokémon on their packaging—Reshiram, Zekrom, Zoroark and, Zebstrika—with each booster pack including one guaranteed parallel foil card!
Features of the new Pokémon TCG: Black & White expansion:
- Over 70 never-before-seen Pokémon from the brand-new Unova region
- Reshiram and Zekrom cards feature a unique foil, and for the first time are given a "full art" treatment covering the entire card

Ability to Win
Some Pokémon have all-new special skills called Abilities, and cards with these Abilities are extra valuable. Abilities have a wide range of uses, so you can take advantage of them in almost any deck.
For instance, you'll get a huge advantage with Serperior's Royal Heal Ability, which heals 10 damage from each of your Pokémon between turns. Or use Klinklang's Shift Gear Ability to move Metal Energy from one of your Pokémon to another during your turn. These benefits definitely make Abilities worth seeking out and adding to your next deck!
All in the Numbers
The Pokémon TCG: Black & White expansion introduces a new approach to card numbering that helps you find exactly the card you're looking for. Under the new system, the cards are organized by type first—so all the Grass-type Pokémon are grouped together, for example. Then, the cards are arranged in Pokédex order. This means you'll always find Lillipup, Herdier, and Stoutland next to each other in the numbering order. With your cards sorted and easier to find, building your next winning deck will be even easier!
Trainer Talk
Non-Pokémon cards such as Trainer, Supporter, and Stadium cards used to be hard to classify, but the Black & White expansion makes it simpler. Now all of these cards are called Trainer cards, and they're divided into three types—Supporter cards, Stadium cards, and Item cards (the new name for the old Trainer cards, such as Poké Ball and PlusPower). Since all three groups are part of the Trainer class of cards, it's much easier for you to talk about these cards with other players!

unprotected shippingPros: N/A Cons: Bent disc, can't read disc, broken case etc. REFUND PLEASE! 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Good gamePros: A very nice price for my favorite of all Zelda titles. Cons: The Wii Version is obviously just the GCN version mirrored and then rushed so the Wii could have a release title. Other Thoughts: Don't get me wrong, this is a great game. It's just that the Wii version is sub-par in terms of gameplay compared to the GCN version. If you've played both, then you'll know what I mean. I still give 4/5 eggs, because while the problems are annoying, this is mainly only noticeable if you have played the GCN version beforehand. If you have never played the GCN version before, then the annoyances won't seem as severe. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Unhappy EggerPros: I cant say anything good about the game because I still have not recieved it. Cons: It has been nearly half a month and still dont have my game. Now there out of stock. I ordered this game on the 14th of July... its almost August now. I have never seen this before for one small simple item. Other Thoughts: Now I have to wait even longer.. probably 10 days for my claim to process and another 7-10 days for shipping. No one has this game where I live and I am starting to become verry upset... I might have to start shopping elsewhere. 0 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Another excellent Zelda gamePros: This is another excellent Zelda game to an already fantastic franchise. The story was very good and the new character Midna offers a fresh new and interesting character to the franchise. Very good and more mature artistic design for this Zelda game. The twilight realm offers a whole new perspective on the Zelda franchise. Cons: The graphics (while very good) look more like a high end Gamecube game (though it was originally a gamecube exclusive that turned to have a Wii port as a launch title) than a next gen game (even if it is the hardware spec inferior Wii) While the controls are very good, the swordplay mechanic feels tacked on on the Wii mote. Other Thoughts: If your a wii owner and/or a zelda fan, you will be very pleased of this game and would play this many times (as I have). Did you find this review helpful? |
What I've been missing all these years.Pros: Has the same epic feel I want out of a Zelda title. Last time I played any Zelda game was around 1997-1998 playing Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask on the N64. Ocarina was spectacular, Majora's was pretty lame, so I was left with a bitter taste in my mouth. After all these years being able to get right back into the legendary feel of Ocarina is great, and playing it with motion on the Wii is even more gratifying. Cons: Little over half way through the game, nothing disappointing yet. Other Thoughts: Next we have Skyward Sword to look forward to. Can't wait. 1 out of 3 people found this review helpful.

Hockey Hair : A Tribute To The Salad Skate
The warm up, it's an age old hockey tradition. At the professional level the warm-up is skated without the use of a helmet, because we all know that hockey players love to let their feathers fly above all else. Hence the saying "hockey hair".
Although they're not always given credit where credit is due, hockey players played a major role in the commercialization of the mullet. Second only to the campaign led by professional wrestlers through the 1980′s and early 90′s. From long flowing locks to a bouncing red fro, a well quaffed slick, hardened gelmet, or greasy mop, to the douchebag inspired faux hawk; hockey players have always known how to rock the lid.
There's no better platform to show off that perfect style or sweaty abomination while eyeballing some pretty ladies in the crowd than during the warm up. Here is our tribute to the salad skate…

1 Meetup Group matches "Cooking And Recipes" near Little Rock, AR
There are no upcoming Meetups.
This is a group for anyone interested in veggie cooking, recipe swaps, food ethics, veganism, vegetarianism, Meatless Mondays, or just learning more about plant-based cooking for a healthier lifestyle. I started this group because there seems to be growing numbers of veg-heads in the world, but no good way for AR vegans/ vegetarians to connect with each other. Potlucks will probably feature prominently in group activity plans -- so you should probably join immediately! ;-)

Blood donation request: A Rh-
Blood donation request: A Rh-
My 9-year old daughter, Arisa (Megan) Erchukiat, is hospitalized, diagnosed with Leukemia
(AML). Matching blood type and bone marrow is crucial for treating this life-threatening
illness. Thailand has only minimal supply of Megan's blood group i.e., "A" Rh Negative.
The Thai Red Cross Society and the National Blood Centre are short of active donors with
this rare blood type. My wife and I need help from anyone who can donate this blood type

It's been nearly three years and staff and volunteers at the Onondaga Historical Association are still unpacking tens of thousands of pieces from Syracuse China. All of the company archives were donated to the OHA after it closed in 2009. Our Kat De Maria got a look at the china Friday.
SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- The building may be gone. But memories are far from all that's left of Syracuse China. Nearly three years ago, the remaining artifacts were dropped off at the Onondaga Historical Association.
"We knew it was a lot. But in the end, we received six tractor trailer truckloads of ware, about 25,000 pieces of ware," said Tom Hunter, curator of collections at the museum.
Staff says they knew some of the company's history. But they became experts, and fast, as they started making their way through more than a hundred years' worth of plates, cups and more that went to various uses all over the world.
"We have beautiful residential ware, we have Imperial Geddo, which was designed by James Pass, the company president at time. We have early airbrush, which was called Shadowtone. We have embassy ware, used at the U.S. embassies and a host of very interesting things that were used on the railroads, on ships, on airplanes," Hunter said.
Staff and volunteers have been unpacking the Syracuse China all along and still aren't done.
"Three years later, we're still going through material: Sorting it, cataloguing it, deciding which we should keep," Hunter said.
What's left in boxes represents only about a third of the archive from Syracuse China. While staff and volunteers continue going through it, people can enjoy what's on display and also what's for sale.
"It's in very good condition. And even the broken pieces, we're converting it into jewelry," Hunter said.
Even with some up for sale, the Onondaga Historical Association will still have thousands of pieces of Syracuse China for a long time to come: Keeping the products, and the memories, of the hometown company safe.
Anyone who wants to see the Syracuse China can stop by the Onondaga Historical Association. The museum has a free and also a more extensive pay-per-view exhibit.

Trenitalia (Italy)
Travel Trenitalia rails. And see Italy—and more—by train.
Whether you plan a leisurely journey on Trenialia trains in Italy from Venice to Tuscany to savor some countryside or Chianti, or want to travel to nearby Switzerland, Austria/Slovenia and Germany, you can hop aboard a Trenitalia train and enjoy its convenience, comfort, and value. Not to mention the speed of Italy trains.
You'll breeze on Italy's Trenitalia trains from Rome to Florence in a mere ninety minutes or from Milan to Venice in less than three hours. And that means more time to inhale your espresso, marvel at the David, and enjoy the incredible surrounding architecture of St. Mark's Square.
The Trenitalia's 150+ trains reach over 200 stations each day, including many port cities in southern Italy. Experience an Italian train ride to Salermo (its historical Old Town is a must-see), and Baria, home to Basillica di San Nicola, founded in 1087. And no southern Italy stop is complete without a pizza-break in Naples.
The brand-new class of InterCity train, IC Plus, offers numerous advantages that create a modern, bright environment, including renewed interiors, air conditioning, Bar Bistro or Minibar service.

That set the old gears in PychWardMike's brain in motion - what is your inner self? Who is the person you hide from the world, the little voice in the back of your head that helps dictate your life?

To drop out of school, leave for another country, do what I really want to. Just because I'm good at living within the system doesn't mean I should. F*** morals, F*** society, get out!

QUOTE (beleraphon @ Jun 30 2005, 06:05 PM) Yeah, agreed. See all Tragick is is a name and makeup. I dress the same, I feel the same, I sing the same, my poems are the same. Through time, I've learned regarding my identity, Tragick is something I can hide behind and be me without fear. Judge Tragick; not Ri. Tragick will tell you off and not care while Ri will keep quiet and be hurt and offended. Tragick doesn't fear judgement of his spirituality (my spirituality) while Ri is afraid of being called a Jesus freak. Tragick shows his art freely while Ri is timid about sharing his creations (to an extent) Same guy; two different reactions. Why? Because I'm safe behind the makeup. Instead of having an emotional wall where I try to keep others out, I can be myself in the comfort of my makeup, a mask, if you will. My "real" self is more logical and less reactionary and is more able to channel his thoughts and feelings (thanks to the cats here, I'm more able to be like that without makeup). I just have an inability to do that without some kind of safely, be it an emotional wall or makeup and a mic. If that's the case, I guess you could personify my "true" self with Tragick. I'm just less scared to be Ri as Tragick than as Ri, if that makes sense. EDIT: I guess you could also equate Tragick with that voice of confidence that has said on more than one occasion, "Kiss her, fat ass! She's into you!" -------------------- With every breath...and all that I am...I will make a stand...until the end. |

Hmm.. I think my "inner self" is different to my "outer self" because I act different around different people. Around my friends I'm more of a happy crazy person and to other people I'm uber shy.. if I kind of know someone I'm somewhere in between. My inner self is panicky and self concious.

I always thought of myself as a schism of three sides. The rigid, perfectionist, short-tempered, elitist intellectual part; the painfully shy, bookish one; and the hippy side. Sometimes I can rant and fume over politics in front of an audience; others I don't talk or like to be touched; and sometimes (most often after caffeine) I'll spar with Mike in parking lots at 11 pm or go to Rocky Horror parties with friends. There's no sharp dividing line--sometimes one bleeds into the other--but there is a difference. Whether I can speak my mind, whether I'm too shy to joke around with people, uns so weiter. I don't particularly favor any side, either. But I suppose most people are like that. *shrug*

I don't so much as have an inner self more as a day me and an after work and weekend me. As you guys know I'm a teacher. This means that I can't be the way I want to be a lot of the time. I have to tone down my language, my exuberance and my friendliness. I have to appear more normal than I am. Even still I am known as the "goth" teacher and I tone myself down at school so much that I'm surprised I even exist! Don't get me wrong I love my job, I just have to be "shadow" me for most of the week. At the weekend though I am bouncy, silly, nutty, loony, emotional, paranoid, optimistic and everything else I can be to make up for lost time

Heh. Leave it to AU to bring up my inner self. The reason I didn't put it in is because I didn't really know what to say.
I am a man of many personalities, each with common themes and variations thereof incorporated so that whatever mask I am wearing still bleeds through my normal self. I can usually break myself into the musician, the fighter, the writer, the learner and the lover. Each Mike in each stage is different, but with the personality traits that make me me. The musician is intensely focussed and emotional, easily frustrated but happy when something works after much toil. The fighter is the dominating and boisterous man that many of my friends know - the one who talks big, acts tough, fights when he needs to and hotly debates matters of importance. The writer is very similar to the musician in that he is intensely emotional, easily frustrated, etc. but there's one key difference - the writer is usually chewing on a pen with eyes glazed over as he types into Microsoft Word. The learner is usually fairly quiet with outburts only to counteract opinions or to ask questions. He tries to learn from and emulate the classics. The lover is the intensely emotional, overly passionate, extremely volatile, hyper sexual man that many friends see when at the local coffee house --- The common traits that each Mike shares are along these lines: -a rather foul mouth -a pension for joking at any time -a distaste for angst -an intense love of all thing sexual -the need to chew on something -love of music -classicist view points -love of coffee. -------------------- I'm just a Viewtiful Girl living in a Viewtiful World.

QUOTE My psych teacher once said that our personalities are like a multifacet gem.... Anyone ever read the Phantom Tollbooth as a kid? That bit completely reminded me of the Dodecahedron. I'm not entirely sure that I have an secret, different person stowed away somewhere, but I do dabble as an actress. I've been in a few plays and at times it is very difficult to seperate oneself from the character. Which is somewhat irritating--it makes one feel as though they don't sort of own their personality, or have such a weak one it is easily eclipsed by some other person one just pretends to be for an hour or so. I definitely sympathize with the people who feel divided a lot. There's that shy person who flees from parties and the gregarious, outgoing thing that takes over every now and then. Which presents another problem, sort of a "who am I?" complex. I guess the only settling resolution would be to accept the idea that everyone is divided to some extent, and to deal. Really, it's somewhat arrogant to delegate oneself to just one set of traits and one possible personailty (there is the reason people who refer to themselves as "preps" or "emo kids" or "goths" are so roundly dismissed by the elitists!) Variation is interesting, and predictability is comfortably dull. Regarding my inner self--I don't know that I know enough about myself to have a concrete idea of who she/he is. I imagine it'll be interesting if/when I find it. -------------------- can I kiss your dopamine? In a way I wonder if she's living in a magazine |

My inner self is singing on a makeshift stage in a forest somewhere. when she isn't singing she's painfully shy. She's slim and quietly confident, but never loud and brash. She probably has pointy ears. She certainly has someone waitng for her in the wings when she comes offstage.
She's graceful and she's pretty, and, unlike me, she knows when to keep her big fat mouth shut, cos she's the one who sits and screams at me every time I sa something stupid. -------------------- Once opened consume within three days.

The Sound of Hope and Spirit
Faith communities taking action on climate change...
A total of 116 actions are registered or reported so far. Click here to see a partial list.
It's essential that our movement convey the moral and spiritual implication of fighting climate change. Faith communities have the unique capacity to comunicate and address those deeper elements of this movement.
Some groups are already taking the lead in organizing actions for 350. In Massachusetts and elsewhere in the United States, churches have begun a campaign to ring their church bells 350 times and spread the 350 call to action.
We're inviting all faith communities around the world to add their voices.
Whether it be chanting, drumming, bells, or horns, consider how your congregation, temple, mosque or spiritual community might publicly make 350 prayerful, hopeful sounds.
To take part, please click "Create a Related Action" below.
Be sure to inform the local media about what you're up to and involve the larger community as well. Here is one example:
If you are a representative of a religious institution that wants to join this project and involve a larger network of communities please click here to get in touch.
Massachussetts Conference of United Church of Christ congregations, please report your actions here.
Episcopal Churches in New England, please sign up and report your actions here.
If your community has already participated in this bell ringing project, consider registering a 350 action for October 24 of this year (more information on that to come soon), and check out the Seven Year Plan for faith communities working towards "generational change" in the face of climate change and ecological destruction produced by the Alliance of Religions and Conservation with the support of UNEP.

Comments about RadioShack 3-Ft. MIDI Cables with 5-Pin DIN Plugs (3-Pack): MUSICIANS, these are not normal midi cables. Theyre actually 5 pin DIN cables. Midi only uses three of the leads but many vintage synths n drum machines peticularly the coveted Roland analog boxes use 5DIN to sync. THEESE WORK! I have had the same three for 6 yrs now with no problems. We don't have to hassle with bidding on vintage cables or making our own. Here we go.

Is AccuWeatherGuy Joe Bastardi Stupid or Dishonest?
Is AccuWeatherGuy Joe Bastardi Stupid or Dishonest?
Joe Romm at Climate Progress does a wonderful job here of deconstructing the insensible blathering of AccuWeather long-range forecaster Joe Bastardi, a man who dismisses climate change as "this red herring of an issue."
Amid his ravings, Bastardi complains that "many of the high circles out there with alphabet soup in front of their names" consider him "stupid," a contention that Romm generously refutes, saying:
"For the record, I don't think he's stupid. Stupid people rarely rise to a position of influence necessary to cause as much damage as Bastardi does."
Romm is right about so much, it seems churlish to argue with him on so trivial a point. But read Romm's post and ask yourself: If Bastardi doesn't suffer from terminal stupidity, what other pathology could explain his twisted position on climate science?
- Richard Littlemore's blog
- Log in or register to post comments
Bastardi mentions " as the warm Arctic and blocking are not a result of the el nino, but probably the excess SO2 shot into the Arctic atmosphere (the stratosphere) by major high latitude volcanoes" There has not been a major high latitude eruption producing SO2 at high latitudes Reviewing the list at http://www.volcano.si.edu/reports/bulletin/contents.cfm?issue=3411 - So what is the supposed origin?
Richard for years, I have listen to David Phillips Senior Climatologist for Environment Canada go out of his way to say this weather event was not caused by climate change and that weather event was not caused by climate change. Fine you can't pin any particular event on Climate Change. But for a "Senior Climatologist" I've never once heard him discuss Climate Change. As the mouthpiece of weather/climate in Canada and someone the media go to regularly what the hell is his problem?
Accuweather is a nest of deniers and tea-partiers who'd love to see Sarah get to be president so that the gov't-owned National Weather Service would be disbanded (The owner of AccuWeather actually tried but failed to do just that under Dumbya). That way, the American public would have to get all it's weather information...for a price of course...from AccuWeather. Great scam eh, if I must say so. I've been leaving comments on their global warming blog for about a year now. I think they've banned me because they say I'm a member of a cult(ask me if I care).
When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. This is the charitable way to explain Bastardi.

Rockets Targeting Dwight Howard, Deron Williams?
The clock is ticking for the Houston Rockets, and not just on the 2012 NBA Draft. The current management team, headed up by general manager Daryl Morey, was supposed to lead the Rockets into a new era of contention, but a rash of injuries to the core components of that team – Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady – prevented them from ever reaching that goal. Now, ownership is growing impatient, as the Rockets have been just good enough to miss the playoffs over the last three seasons.
It's widely recognized that Houston is one piece away from being a contending team in the Western Conference, but that one piece has eluded them. Now, it sounds like the Rockets are attempting to land two All-Star pieces in moves surrounding this week's NBA Draft.
The Rockets have been linked to Dwight Howard in recent days, but sources close to the situation say that acquiring Howard would only be the first step in Houston's master plan. The team would then try to acquire a second star player, with Deron Williams atop their wish list, to put next to Howard. If all goes as planned, Houston will have the resources to trade for Howard and sign Williams to a max contract.
The Rockets have been busy working to add draft picks, and already have a nice collection started. They own the 14th and 16th picks on their own, and just acquired the 18th selection when they traded Chase Budinger to the Minnesota Timberwolves. There are also a couple of prominent rumors that have them grabbing a couple more picks between now and the draft on Thursday.
The Sacramento Kings own the fifth pick in the draft, and several rumors have the Rockets acquiring that pick via trade. The rumor that seems to be gaining the most momentum has Houston sending former Kings center Samuel Dalembert and the 16th pick to Sacramento for the fifth pick. DraftExpress' Jonathan Givony recently reported that one possible deal involved Houston taking back Tyreke Evans and sending Kyle Lowry, the 14th and 16th to Sacramento, though Sports Illustrated's Sam Amick has since shot down that rumor.
It seems unlikely that the Rockets would send Lowry to Sacramento, as another prominent rumor has them sending Lowry to the Toronto Raptors for the eighth pick.
If the Rockets were able to acquire the 5th and 8th to add to their other picks, they could add Kevin Martin to a deal with the Orlando Magic, who may look to move Howard on draft night. What's more, if the Rockets can pull off that deal, they would also have the money to sign Williams to a max contract, allowing Howard and Williams to play together, as they long to do. In the process, Houston hangs onto the rights to Goran Dragic, who could back up Williams, and Courtney Lee, one of Howard's best friends, who could start at the two. The hope is that playing with Williams and Lee would be reason enough for Howard to commit his foreseeable future to playing in Houston.
To be clear, there are a lot of dominoes that have to fall just the right way in order for this master plan to come together. If it doesn't, however, Houston has a couple of backup plans in mind, according to sources. If the Rockets are unable to sign Williams, sources say they'll try to trade for Rudy Gay or Josh Smith. Houston believes that their odds of re-signing Howard after next year would significantly increase if they are able to acquire a perimeter star such as Gay or Smith. Howard is close with both players.
The Rockets are going all in and, over the next few days, will attempt to change the landscape of the NBA.

Late rally lifts Tigers to win over Wabash
March 14, 2007
March 14, 2007, Greencastle, Ind. - Trailing 7-0 in the bottom of the sixth, the Tigers rallied to take an 8-7 victory at Walker Field. DePauw improved to 5-5 with its fifth straight win, while the Little Giants dropped to 3-7.
Wabash scored three in the third on Matt Dodaro's three-run homer. Travis Stirling drove in Dodaro with a single in the fifth and the Little Giants added another score on a double play groundout. In the sixth, Dodaro hit a two-run homer to make it 7-0.
Adam Ford hit a solo homer in the sixth for the Tigers' first run before Mike Stout hit a three-run shot in the seventh to close the gap to 7-4. DePauw added two more in the eighth on a wild pitch and Jeremy Dickinson's double down the line.
Matt Kleine led off the DePauw ninth with a single, stole second and scored on Ford's single to center. After Ford advanced on a groundout, Justin Weiner pinch ran and moved to third on a wild pitch. Drew Holy then drove in Weiner with the game-winnning run on a single to center.
DePauw totaled 13 hits led by Dickinson, Chris Newman, Ford, Holy and Kyle Thompson with two each. Wabash finished with 14 hits as Jake Thomas collected four and Dodaro added three along with five RBI. Scott Hamilton also had three hits and Jake Lee finished with a pair.
Paul Rodenhouse improved to 2-2 with the relief win, while Joey Niezer suffered the loss.
The Tigers host Ohio Northern on Saturday in a noon doubleheader.

Thanks for being here, your help is what I spend a majority of my time reading on the forum! : )
Hi mikel33,As far as percentages to measurements, just use the Pizza Forum's Dough Calculator in combination with the dough recipe of your choice to "tweak" your recipe. http://www.pizzamaking.com/expanded_calculator.htmlIn regards to the dough process, there are differences in proofing for home vs. a commercial establishment. What comes into play is the amount of time you are willing to wait to bake, flour recipe, and other factors... one main factor for me is my elevation, I currently live in Albuquerque, NM at an elevation of 5,312 feet+/-. So I have to take that, and dough hydration into account along with my baking time.I hope this is of some help to you. Best regards - Chris
It was a more flavorful and softer dough, a pleasure to work with, but... as per the discussion between Pete and myself not a crunchy, airy NY style crust at all.

As a follow-on to my last question What is the ideal mix of founders for a SaaS startup? it seems that a Marketeer is important to a SaaS startup. I think it's fairly easy to find and evaluate developers and designers (developers tend to hang out at places like StackOverflow, designers like to publish their portfolios).
Marketeers seem harder to find (at least to me) - where would be a good place to find a potential marketing co-founder?
And then, once found, what is the best way to evaluate them? In the past, I've noticed that they tend to dramatically overstate their previous contributions to projects. Is there a litmus test for a good Marketeer?

YouTube's monetization claims: Where's the beef?
Last week, at this here mental-research facility, we asked the question, YouTube, how much are you making off Jill and Kevin's wedding? And those fine boffins over at the Tube have decided to answer--kind of, at least.
In an announcement entitled, "I now pronounce you monetized: a YouTube video case study," posted by Chris LaRosa, technical account manager, and Ali Sandler, music partner manager, the Tubers' hoops are cocked at the joy of the video's success (now more than 12 million views).

Struck by lightning, an endearing little robot known only as "Number 5" escapes from an experimental electronics firm. Technician Newton Crosby (Steve Guttenberg) and his indecipherable East Indian assistant, Ben Jabituya (Fisher Stevens), set out to locate Number 5 before the military can go through with its plans to destroy the robot. Number 5 takes refuge with loopy Stephanie Speck (Ally Sheedy), who is convinced that the mechanical man is an extraterrestrial. Hoping to teach the "alien" all about Earth, she fills Number 5's memory banks with reams of pop culture -- and then the real fun begins. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Fisher Stevens reprises his role of Ben Jahrvi, the co-inventor of the cute robot Number Five, in this sequel to Short Circuit. Since the last film, Ben has moved to the city, where he lives in a truck and sells toy Number Fives as a street vendor. Ben plies his trade until one day luck strikes in the form of Sandy (Cynthia Gibb), a toy buyer in dire straits who offers Ben $50,000 if he can quickly churn out a thousand toy robots. Offering to help the naive Ben is street con man Fred (Michael McKean), who becomes Ben's partner and finances the burgeoning enterprise through a loan shark. Ben and Fred begin to manufacture the toys in a warehouse; unfortunately, they soon find the building also houses the entrance of a tunnel dug by thieves, preparing to rob the bank across the street. With things appearing their bleakest, a crate arrives from Montana. Inside is the new and improved Number Five, who now insists on being called Johnny Five. Johnny Five has even learned to talk in a litany of phrases gleaned from television shows, and now helps Ben get started in the toy business. In the process, Ben and Johnny Five contend with the temptations and corrupt business practices of a big city environment. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

The Land Before Time

Animation producer Don Bluth's fondness for overly cutesy characters and muddy color compositions work to the benefit of his feature-length cartoon The Land Before Time. Littlefoot, a brontosaurus child, must fend for himself when his mother is killed (shades of Bambi). With several other orphaned dinosaurs, Littlefoot seeks out the fabled Great Valley, where food and shelter is plentiful. Along the way, the kiddie dinos learn several vital (and politically correct) life lessons, all the while keeping themselves scarce whenever the fierce tyrannosauri gallumph into view. The cuteness of the characters (emphasized by the voice work) takes some of the harsh edges off the story, which makes the film eminently suitable for younger children; and the smeary color design is ideal for the time-frame of the film, which is set in the turbulent, nature-run-rampant period just before the dinosaurs died out. Apparently they didn't all die, inasmuch as a Land Before Time sequel was released on video in 1994. The earlier film inspired a 1988 Saturday morning cartoon series produced by Ruby-Spears, Dink: The Little Dinosaur. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Tremors is actually two movies in one. On its own terms, it's an enjoyable modern sci-fi horror-thriller, with good pacing and a sense of humor; but it's also a loving tribute to such 1950s low-budget desert-based sci-fi-horror films like Them!, It Came From Outer Space, Tarantula, and The Monolith Monsters. Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward are the stars, a pair of small-town handymen living in a small desert community, who stumble upon several difficult-to-explain phenomena, including a couple of people who've died under extremely strange (and, in one instance, very grisly) circumstances. Eventually, they and a handful of their neighbors find the cause: gigantic prehistoric worm-like creatures that streak under the desert the way fish swim through oceans, reaching up and grabbing anything they need for food. Cut off from the outside world, they have to figure out how to get across the desert alive while these creatures -- that are smart as well as fast -- close in on them, stalking them like monster sharks. The film benefits from the presence of special effects that are good enough to pull this all off, keeping the shock value high, and also from a subtly humorous script and performances to match by the entire cast, and director Ron Underwood's breezy pacing of the whole picture. ~ Bruce Eder, Rovi

Elliot is hoping to close a big deal that will mean a promotion, more money, and lots of perks, but a cab ride with a freaked-out cab driver causes his untimely demise. Elliot discovers that he is now a ghost and has to learn to spend more time with his kids rather than worry about money and career.

Director Ron Underwood follows up his crowd-pleasing hit City Slickers (1991) with this likable, feel-good comedy drama about a selfish businessman who discovers that he's permanently being followed by a group of ghosts. In 1959, a bus accident links the spirits of four fatally injured passengers to a newborn baby whose birth is caused by the crash. For 25 years, Milo (Tom Sizemore), Harrison (Charles Grodin), Penny (Alfre Woodard) and Julia (Kyra Sedgwick) remain bound to Thomas Reilly (Robert Downey Jr.), who believes the quartet to be imaginary childhood friends that have long since disappeared. When the four spooks suddenly realize that they are meant to use Thomas as a conduit to bring closure to their unfinished corporeal lives, they reemerge, causing Thomas to think that he's gone insane. As he becomes reattached to his supernatural companions, however, Thomas' innate decency asserts itself and he begins helping them to right the wrongs in their lives, allowing them to possess his body to achieve their goal of settling accounts and moving on into the afterlife. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

The Graboids are back in this sequel to the campy comedy horror hit that finds luckless Earl Basset (Fred Ward) and survivalist Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) teaming up to destroy the monsters that are wrecking havoc in the Mexican oil fields. It's been a good few years since Earl and Burt saved the town of Perfection, Nevada from the strange pre-Cambrian predators, and these days Earl is doing his best to find success as an ostrich farmer. Trouble is, none of Earl's birds want to breed, and it looks as if the farm is about to go under. Just when it seems that things couldn't get any worse for this monster-slaying cowboy, a pair of visitors arrives with a rather unusual proposition. According to the strangers, the Graboids have recently resurfaced in Sonora, Mexico, and they're currently getting fat on a steady diet of frightened oil field workers. Local businessman Carlos Ortega is willing to pay $50,000 a head for each worm killed, but Earl isn't so sure he wants to put himself in harm's way like that again. Still, Earl knows that he's the right man for the job, and after a bit of goading from ambitious cabbie Grady Hoover (Christopher Gartin) the pair are loading up their weapons and heading for the border. Upon arriving in Sonora, Earl quickly warms up to beautiful geologist Kate White (Helen Shaver), but the Graboid population has grown faster than suspected so in order to be successful this group will need the kind of firepower that only Burt Gummer can supply. Ever since Burt's wife walked out on him and the threat of World War III went away, the lonely survivalist has lost all direction in life. This is Burt's chance to prove that he's not just a useless middle aged man. But what the humans have failed to realize is that the Graboids have evolved to become deadlier than ever before, and they're not staying underground anymore. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Yet another TV series is revived for the big screen, as Will Smith and Kevin Kline join forces as James T. West and Artemus Gordon, the most sophisticated government agents of the 1860's, in the film adaptation of The Wild Wild West. West and Gordon represent two opposite ends of the personality scale: West is a smooth-talking charmer and man of action who prefers to shoot first and ask questions much, much later; while Gordon is intensely methodical and cerebral, with a genius for gadgets and mechanical innovations. They're brought together by no less an authority than the President of the United States to track down an evil genius named Dr. Arliss Loveless (Kenneth Branagh). Loveless was once an honored military leader and inventor until one of his schemes went awry and left him paralyzed from the waist down. Driven mad by the experience, Loveless is determined to get revenge on the United States by assassinating the President, using a 60-foot tall mechanical spider. Assisting Loveless is a team of beautiful female criminals, Miss East (Bai Ling), Amazonia (Frederique Van Der Wal), Munitia (Musetta Vander) and Miss Lippenreider (Sofia Eng). As the initially suspicious West and Gordon learn to work together, they also find themselves helped by an attractive woman, Rita Escobar (Salma Hayek), who has her own bone to pick with Loveless. Wild Wild West reunites star Will Smith with director Barry Sonnenfeld, who previously worked together on the hit Men In Black (1997). Wild Wild West features a hip-hop theme song from one-time Fresh Prince Smith, along with a more traditional Western score from composer Elmer Bernstein. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

It's back to Perfection, NV, for munitions-crazed Graboid hunter Burt Gummer (Michael Gross), who has made a career out of chasing and slaying the burrowing "sub-terrestrial" creatures that pop out of the ground and eat whomever happens to be standing there. This time Gummer is assisted by wisecracking cowboy Jack Sawyer (Shawn Christian), who runs a shabby theme park based on the critters, and Jodi Chang (Susan Chuang), whose convenience store is unfortunately at Graboid Ground Zero. Gummer and company have their hands full this time, when the oversized worms have mutated to a new state -- not only do they burrow, but they have wings and can fly like carnivorous dragons. Does Gummer have enough shells in his artillery cannons to knock them all from the sky? ~ Buzz McClain, Rovi

Based on the cult-favorite "giant worm" film of the same name, the weekly, hour-long Tremors: The Series found Michael Gross repeating his screen role as neurotic worm-buster Burt Gummer. The series took place in the ironically yclept community of Perfection Valley, NV, where all manner of huge and slimy creatures have wrought havoc from beneath the ground. In the tradition of Roswell, NM, Perfection Valley has profited mightily from its disastrous past experiences with such slithery species as the Graboids, the Shriekers, and the AssBlasters, with ex-hippie Nancy Sterngood (Marcia Strassman) growing wealthy by selling ceramic statues of the aforementioned creatures over the Internet, and hot rodder-cum-pilot Tyler Reed (Victor Browne) managing the lucrative "Desert Jack's Graboid Tours." Also on the premises was Department of the Interior agent W.D. Twitchell (Dean Norris), whose job it was to put up bureaucratic barriers against killing off the various and sundry super-worms because of their "endangered species" status. Meanwhile, Burt Gummer, often working in concert with grocer Jodi Chang (Lela Lee) and rancher Rosalita Sanchez (Gladys Jimenez), did his best to protect Perfection Valley from any and all future creepy-crawly invaders -- and when the worms came out anyway (as they always did), Burt utilized a veritable arsenal of jerry-built weaponry to thwart the yucky scourges. Tremors: The Series debuted over cable's Sci-Fi Channel (surprise, surprise!) on March 28, 2003. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
