Another View: Kelly Ayotte -- When the Tax Man becomes Big Brother
Appearing before Congress recently, the outgoing IRS director apologized for making "mistakes" and providing "poor service." By contrast, imagine for a moment how futile it would be for a private citizen or a small business owner to respond to an IRS investigation with a simple shrug of the shoulders and an apology.

Reviews by jsulko:jsulkoIllinois 4.13/5 rDev +1% look: 4.5 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4 Bottle poured into a snifter glass Pours a dark brownish black with a decent chocolate colored head that lingers a bit. Smell is chocolate with some roasted malt and a touch of sweetness. Taste is heavy with the chocolate and hints of sweetness and the yeast. Finish is smooth with a creamyness that I don't remember in the other Yetis. A good beer but I don't think the "Belgian" part really added much except maybe on the finish. Another solid Yeti variety but no wow factor.

Thick, and dark liquid, under a massive thick and tan colored foamy cover. Heavy stuff. The nose has a creamy, deep chocolat-ish, coffee, and cocoa thickness with dried fruits, and a n earthy, hearty scented yeast kick. A huge, full and smooth feel with heady amounts of complex malt flavors: dry chocolate, with the hops and yeast providing almost equally as intense amounts of dried, sweet fruits and earthy, dry yeast. Chunky feel with big flavor's, balance is great concidering just how big this brew is in scope. Staggering effects that make you sip, savor and ponder. The hops come over as sweet and also very bitter, dry and a bit overwhelming for me personally. Subtle flavors include: mocha, coffee, vanilla, grapefruit, dry chocolate and dark wheat. Intense stuff, it's like two of my favorite style had a love Monster!

Very little head or lacing. S - Chocolate, something funky (maybe this is the yeast), booze, licorice, coffee. T - Funk, syrupy sweetness and chocolate. Dark fruits, a touch of coffee, and booze. M - Medium with little carbonation. Dry finish. O- I was expecting more from this than was there. The funky smell and taste just didn't do it for me.

So it looks like a standard issue imperial stout. It has a stronger aroma that other imperial stouts I've had recently, but it doesn't really have that Belgian scent one might expect to pick up on. Okay, this beer tastes like a good imperial stout...but I'm not getting the Belgian vibe from it. I don't know if it being 2 1/2 years old has mellowed out the flavors imparted by the yeasts or if they're just too mild for me to pick up in the face of what is a 9.5% ABV Imperial Stout. The beer has a strange combination of high carbonation and a certain chalkiness that lies just beneath the surface. Overall, a good, but not amazing, imperial stout. Don't expect much deviation from the mean.

Smell: yeast, cocoa, and a malty grain. Taste: chewy chocolate bar, some hops, light grain, and very light cocoa. Mouthfeel: medium and smooth. Overall: This is a pretty good brew. The flavors are nice and not overly powerful. This is extremely drinkable and smooth. It reminds me of the Great Divide 17th Anniversary but with less complexity. Serving type: bottle 11-22-2013 07:24:48 | More by megahurts4 artoolemomoOregon 4.26/5 rDev +4.2% look: 3.5 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25 Appearance- Pours up very little head and has just as little retention. The head is a dark beige with hints of burnt umber while the body is an opaque, dark chocolate brown. Leaves no real lacing but this beer has seen some age. Nose- Fascinating. I've never gotten so many fruity esters from a stout before- the glass is dominated by them. Cherries, plums, hints of raisins, even a little bit of citrus (mostly orange but some lemon). I think I even caught a hint of some banana after it settled. The aroma from the bottle is more traditional and shows a good amount of chocolate and coffee with slight hints of vanilla, caramel, and toffee. But the fruity esters are the star of the show and even exhibit a bit of tartness. These begin to fade and the more traditional notes I described start to emerge from the glass. Taste- Very reflective of the nose- I'm getting most of the non-traditional fruity aspects up front followed by the more traditional aspects which lead into the finish. Cherries, plums, and raisins are bright and the citrus aspects tend to get subsumed by the roasted malts (mostly coffee) which interrupt the middle. There is none of the phenolic character that you get from a lot of Belgian yeast and I certainly appreciate that. That is the main reason why I waited so long to purchase this beer; I only pulled the trigger when I learned that it was discontinued. I'm quite impressed by the presence and complexity that exists after almost a year and a half. Slight woodiness, maybe a touch of cloves but it is hard to distinguish from the coffee and short, rich chocolate of the finish. Without a doubt, a really good beer. The rounded sweetness of the front works beautifully with the muted bitterness and the roasted notes of the finish. Perhaps it is best that I waited this long as I would not have experienced it at this age. I am going to have to buy the last bottle I know of to see how it will develop even further. The balance and integration are amazing. Mouthfeel- A little more than medium bodied with mild carbonation. Maybe a little too much but this is a mild complaint. Some velvet to the texture. Drinkability- Very easy drinking. No heat. I wish there were more. Not as good as Espresso Yeti but it's probably my second for the series. 11.50 for a vintage bottle ain't bad either. Overall- Really good- expresses some of the best of Belgium on the rock solid platform of Yeti. Much of the Yeti aspects have diminished but the yeast has taken over to fill in. If you see a left over bottle, buy it. Even if you don't like it, do it for someone else. I'm happy I did.

Pours out black with ruby edges. Thin mocha head. Smells of chocolate and coffee with a touch of buttery caramel. Faint Belgian yeast clove. I pick up some earthy hops as well. The flavor: wow. Lots of chocolate and buttery toffee up front. The roastiness come out a bit more in the middle along with some bitterness from the roast and hops. Belgian yeast is more prevalent in the aftertaste as a vapor in the mouth of esters. This is kind of like drinking a heath bar. Full of flavor, but it restrains itself from beating you over the head. A bit sweet overall. Mouthfeel is not as heavy as you would think, which is a good thing, and the carbonation is so smooth and creamy. Excellent version of Yeti, which is sadly retired.

Why did the arrests take 11 days?
#1, the boys were being hidden, I believe. And while they should have been in school (Big Beaver Falls School District, Joe Namath´s school district) we know that truancy is rampant among minority chillun, so they would not have been missed, in all likelihood.This happened in a really bad neighborhood, by the way. A suburb of Pittsburgh, the hood has been creepiing out of the city like a bad virus.
Well, the one thing we can know from the lack of concern in the article and the shortness of it- the woman had to have been a white woman and the "boys" were black. If it had happened that the victim was black and the "boys" were white- all hell would be breaking loose in the streets of Pittsburgh. Media- what a bunch of lowlife cowards.
I work with teens with this same pathological behavior, and a big reason for it is they have no respect at all for the consequences for it. IT DOSN´T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY !!!
If she hadn´t been smoking, she would not have been shot.Ban smoking, it´s unhealthy. Proof positive.
Sorry.The youths are entitled to cigarettes.It is the job of citizens to provide them with what they want.And if the citizens are not forthcoming, force will be used.That is today´s citizenship lesson from the Dems.The crime here was the failure of the woman to politely do as she was told. She works, thus she has no rights. Only those who do not work have rights.
Wait. These boys were NRA members? How did they get a membership so young?
Where are the mug shots?
Yes, the victim was a white, 22 year old Mother of one whose boyfriend was harrassed by these sons of obama, and she simply told them to "get a job". Two 14 year olds and a 13 year old fled the scene after shooting her.Go to their FaceBook pages and it showed them brandishing revolvers and pistols. How does a 14 year old get guns?? They STEAL them. Where is Eric Holder for Hate Crimes?Double standard today. If Adam Lanza was not white, there would be no outcry from the MSM.
They should be charged with murder and never been allowed to go home when they were picked up the first time.If most crimes are committed with stolen guns (some stolen from the police), what good does a gun ban do ? It only leaves good citizens defenseless.
They should be humanely euthanized.
Why did she have to be so racist and make those racist comments? sarc/off

I made this outfit to wear to one of Melbourne's horse racing days – Oaks Day – the Thursday meeting of the Spring Racing Carnival. The peplum top was very easy to make and I will try another I am sure. The skirt it just a plain pencil skirt (no waist band). Pattern was from my collection of underutlised patterns.
I altered the top by adding a simple block waist band. This provided some additional length to combat my longer than typical torso. I also moved the zip from the centre back to under the arm. I omitted the small sleve and interface the neck and arm holes to give the outfit a more 'spring' appearance.
A clever friend made the hat for me.
The fabric was cheap at $3 metre. I am not sure what it was but it had a thick satin feel. It was lovely to work with and lovely to wear and remained looking neat for the whole day.
The shoes and matching bag cost considerably more but they tied the outfit together and provided some colour.

Perkins Confident in New-Look Thunder
Entering this season, Kendrick Perkins wasn't sure if the Oklahoma City Thunder would be the same hungry, fiery team that advanced to the NBA Finals last season. With so many young players on the roster, Perkins didn't know how the team would respond after getting a taste of success. However, any concerns that Perkins had were erased the moment he arrived at the team's practice facility.
"I was worried because there's such a thing as having too much success at a young age," Perkins told HOOPSWORLD. "I thought that maybe guys would start to get big heads, but guys are still humble and hungry. I watched the guys come in and work even harder than we normally do. That left a bad taste in our mouth, losing in the Finals last year. One thing about the guys on this team, we all want to win. We're definitely trying to bring that trophy home to Oklahoma."
Each year, the Thunder has advanced deeper and deeper into the postseason. Now, all that's left for the team to do is hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy, and anything less than that will be considered a disappointment.
Even though Oklahoma City has championship aspirations and represented the Western Conference in the NBA Finals just five months ago, they haven't been in the spotlight nearly as much as other contenders such as the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat, but that's fine with Perkins.
"We actually like getting overlooked," Perkins said. "We don't like to be on the radar or be the top dog. We're a team that tries to stay out of the limelight, but that's difficult because we've got some great players on our team. We like being overlooked and it does motivate us to keep going and keep winning games."
Perkins won a championship with the Boston Celtics in 2008 so he knows what it takes to raise a banner. When asked to compare this year's team to other teams that he's played on, he puts this squad "right up there" and acknowledges their unlimited upside. However, Perkins admits that this group is still coming together and is very much a work in progress.
"On a scale of one to ten, I'd say we're about an eight," Perkins said of this year's Thunder. "We have a lot of new guys and a lot of young guys so we're just trying to build our chemistry one game at a time. The thing is we lost a lot of veteran guys. We have a lot of talented guys, but they're not as experienced. We just have to make sure we follow the process and keep getting better."
"We're all growing together," Perkins added. "We have to be a better defensive team all-around. We have to do a better job of cutting down on our turnovers. We have to do a better job of executing our offense. We have to get better at the little things like talking on defense, setting good screens, cutting even when you're not getting the ball so that someone else gets an open shot. Those are the things that don't show up in the box scores, but those are the things that help teams win championships. Those are the things that we're striving to get better at."
The biggest difference between this year's team and the one that suited up for the Finals is the absence of James Harden, who was shipped to the Houston Rockets over the offseason in exchange for Kevin Martin, Jeremy Lamb and three draft picks. While Perkins admits that it was tough to see Harden go, he has been extremely impressed with Martin through the first 14 games of the season.
"James was our brother so it hurt to lose him, but we know that we got someone who's capable of putting up 50 points in one night in Kevin," Perkins said. "The thing that we didn't know about Kevin is his tenacity – the way he takes ownership and plays defense. He's a guy who is 29 years old, but he wants to get better. I think Kevin is making the most of this opportunity. He hasn't really been on a winning ballclub in the last five or six years. He told us when he got here that he was tired of putting up numbers on teams that weren't going anywhere. I think he's more excited than all of us just to be here and just show the world that he's going to take advantage of this opportunity. Kevin helps us a lot. He's a guy who comes to work early and gets in the gym. If practice is at 11 a.m. then he's there at 9 a.m. He's always getting shots up or spending time in the weight room. He's averaging 16 points off the bench right now so having him is just a plus all around."
The continued development of 24-year-olds Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook is one reason why the Thunder may be able to win a championship over the elite teams that overhauled their roster over the offseason. Even though Perkins has been around Durant and Westbrook for two years, he continues to be amazed by the duo on and off the court. When asked why Durant and Westbrook have been able to experience success so early in their careers, Perkins says "it's the way they work" that puts them ahead of the curve.
"Kevin and Russell are two guys who don't lead by talking, they lead by example," Perkins explained. "You should see them. Every day in practice, they're working harder than some of the rookies. That goes a long way when your two franchise players, your two captains, are being humble and working the way that they work. I've never seen that out of young guys in my life. They're young, but they're very hungry and it carries over to everyone else."
Another reason to bet on the Thunder come June is their chemistry. Oklahoma City is often described as the closest team in the NBA and it's hard to argue, even after the Harden trade brought in some new faces. Most teams spend time together on the road and then retreat to their families when they get home. However, the Thunder doesn't have many players that have settled down since they're one of the younger teams in the NBA. Oklahoma City's players don't go home to a wife and kids. Instead, they congregate at a teammate's house to play video games or watch football whenever there's down time.
"We have a group of young guys that love hanging around each other," Perkins said. "We've built relationships off the court that carry over on the court. It's like a family. We all got each other's back and we all support each other at all times. On any night, it can be any guy's night to have 20 points and we're happy for the next man because we're all close."
Perkins couldn't be happier on the Thunder. What's not to the love? The team is extremely talented, close-knit and poised to contend for years to come. Perkins' contract will keep in Oklahoma City through the 2014-15 season, but he hopes to stay even longer. He would love to finish his career with the Thunder.
"I love it here," Perkins said. "It is a business so I have to make sure I do my job and we do our job, and that's trying to win a couple of championships. Then, the rest will take care of itself. But yes, I would love to stay here and finish my career here."
Perkins wants to win a couple of championships in Oklahoma City before all is said and done, starting with this season. Last postseason, the Thunder tasted success and entered this year hungrier than ever. Now, they'll try to satisfy their craving in June.

The folks that complain they are bored with this race are NOT watching the action through out the field ... or listening to a feed without announcers with passion

LAP 65 of 85 - Will Power was held up on pit road giving the lead to Ryan Briscoe on lap traffic
YELLOW Flag - on LAP 66 - Top 5 Briscoe, Power, RHR, Franchitti, and TAGS - This may be a long YELLOW Flag due to tire barrier getting wiped out - Smart driving by Briscoe - Helio Castroneves has moved up to P9 after being dropped by penalty back to P25
LAP70 of 85 - 220 consecutive laps under GREEN Flag before this full course caution - Everyone to the refrigerators - P2P has been instrumental and Ryan Briscoe has a bunch more P2P left than Will Power

LAP 72 of 85 - Field reset with the drive through order go out with cars one lap down - RHR in P3 ... Dario and TAGS are going to be pushing RHR very hard - Penske being interviewed and he says he will not entertain any team orders ... Will Power ought to make a deal
LAP 74 - GREEN Flag Restart - RHR was push/touching the rear of Briscoe's car - get through turn 2 fine

Setting Up Services Required to Publish a Cloud Service from Visual Studio
Before you can publish a cloud service project, you must set up the following services:
A cloud service
Runs your roles in the Windows Azure environment. -
A storage account
Provides access to the Blob, Queue, and Table services.
Use the following procedures to set up these services and configure your application:
Create a cloud service
Create a storage account
Configure your application to use services that the storage account provides
Create a Cloud Service
To publish a cloud service to Windows Azure, you must first create a cloud service, which runs your roles in the Windows Azure environment. You can create a cloud service in the Windows Azure Management Portal, as described here. You can also create a cloud service in Visual Studio when you use the publishing wizard.
To create a cloud service by using Visual Studio
Open the shortcut menu for the Windows Azure project, and choose Publish.
If you haven't signed in, sign in with your username and password for the Microsoft account or organizational account that's associated with your Windows Azure subscription.
Choose the Next button to advance to the Settings page.
In the Cloud Services list, choose Create New. The Create Windows Azure Services dialog appears.
Enter the name of your cloud service. The name forms part of the URL for your service and therefore must be globally unique. The name is not case-sensitive.
To create a cloud service by using the Management Portal
Sign in to the Windows Azure Management Portal on the Microsoft website.
(optional) To display a list of cloud services that you've already created, choose the Cloud Services link on the left side of the page.
Choose the + icon in the lower-left corner, and then choose Cloud Service on the menu that appears.
Another screen with two options, Quick Create and Custom Create, appears. If you choose Quick Create, you can create a cloud service just by specifying its URL and the region where it will be physically hosted. If you choose Custom Create, you can immediately publish a cloud service by specifying a package (.cspkg file), a configuration (.cscfg) file, and a certificate. Custom Create isn't required if you intend to publish your cloud service by using the Publish command in a Windows Azure project. The Publish command is available on the shortcut menu for a Windows Azure project.
Choose Quick Create to later publish your cloud service by using Visual Studio.
Specify a name for your cloud service.
The complete URL appears next to the name.
In the list, choose the region where most of your users are located.
At the bottom of the window, choose the Create Cloud Service link.
Create a Storage Account
A storage account provides access to the Blob, Queue, and Table services.
To create a storage account by using the Management Portal
Sign in to the Windows Azure Platform Management Portal on the Microsoft website.
(optional) To view your storage accounts, choose the Storage link in the panel on the left side of the page.
In the lower-left corner of the page, choose the + icon.
In the menu that appears, choose Storage, and then choose Quick Create.
Give the storage account a name that will result in a unique URL.
Give your cloud service a name.
The complete URL appears next to the name.
In the list of regions, choose a region where most of your users are located.
Specify whether you want to enable geo-replication.
If you enable geo-replication, your data will be saved in multiple physical locations to reduce the chance of loss. This feature makes storage more expensive, but you can reduce the cost by enabling geo-location when you create the storage account instead of adding the feature later. For more information, see Geo-replication.
At the bottom of the window, choose the Create Storage Account link.
After you create your storage account, you will see the URLs that you can use to access resources in each of the Windows Azure storage services, and also the primary and secondary access keys for your account. You use these keys to authenticate requests made against the storage services.
Note |
The secondary access key provides the same access to your storage account as the primary access key and is generated as a backup should your primary access key be compromised. Additionally, it is recommended that you regenerate your access keys on a regular basis. You can modify a connection string setting to use the secondary key while you regenerate the primary key, then you can modify it to use the regenerated primary key while you regenerate the secondary key. |
Configure Your Application to Use Services Provided by the Storage Account
You must configure any role that accesses storage services to use the Windows Azure storage services that you have created. To do this, you can use multiple service configurations for your Windows Azure project. By default, two are created in your Windows Azure project. By using multiple service configurations, you can use the same connection string in your code, but have a different value for a connection string in each service configuration. For example, you can use one service configuration to run and debug your application locally using the Windows Azure storage emulator and a different service configuration to publish your application to Windows Azure. For more information about service configurations, see Configuring a Windows Azure Project.
To Configure Your Application to Use Services That the Storage Account Provides
In Visual Studio open your Windows Azure solution. In Solution Explorer, open the shortcut menu for each role in your Windows Azure project that accesses the storage services and choose Properties.
A page with the name of the role is displayed in the Visual Studio editor. The page displays the fields for the Configuration tab.
In the property pages for the role, choose Settings.
In the Service Configuration list, choose the name of the service configuration that you want to edit.
If you want to make changes to all of the service configurations for this role, you can choose All Configurations. For more information about how to update service configurations, see Manage Connection Strings for Storage Accounts.
To modify any connection string settings, choose the … button next to the setting.
The Create Storage Connection String dialog box appears.
Under Connect using, choose the Your subscription option.
In the Subscription list, choose your subscription.
If the list of subscriptions doesn't include the one that you want, choose the Download Publish Settings link.
In the Account name list, choose your storage account name.
Windows Azure Tools obtains storage account credentials automatically by using the .publishsettings file. To specify your storage account credentials manually, choose the Manually entered credentials option, and then continue with this procedure. You can get your storage account name and primary key from the Management Portal. If you don't want to specify your storage account settings manually, choose the OK button to close the dialog box.
Choose the Enter storage account credentials link.
In the Account name box, enter the name of your storage account.
Note Log into the Management Portal, and then choose the Storage button. The portal shows a list of storage accounts. If you choose an account, a page for it opens. You can copy the name of the storage account from this page. If you are using a previous version of the Management Portal, the name of your storage account appears in the Storage Accounts view of the Management Portal. To copy this name, highlight it in the Properties window of this view, and then choose the Ctrl-C keys. To paste the name into Visual Studio, choose the Account name text box, and then choose the Ctrl+V keys. -
In the Account key box, enter your primary key, or copy and paste it from the Management Portal.
To copy this key from the Management Portal:
At the bottom of the page for the appropriate storage account, choose the Manage Keys button.
On the Manage Keys Access page, select the text of the primary access key, and then choose the Ctrl+C keys.
In Windows Azure Tools, paste the key into the Account key box.
At the bottom of the page for the appropriate storage account, choose the Manage Keys button.
You must select one of the following options to determine how the service will access the storage account:
Use HTTP. This is the standard option. For example,
http://<account name>.blob.core.windows.net
. -
Use HTTPS for a secure connection. For example,
. -
Specify custom endpoints for each of the three services. You can then type these endpoints into the field for the specific service.
Note If you create custom endpoints this allows you to create a more complex connection string. When you use this string format, you can specify storage service endpoints that include a custom domain name that you have registered for your storage account with the Blob service. Also you can grant access only to blob resources in a single container through a shared access signature. For more information about how to create custom endpoints, see How to Configure Connection Strings.
Use HTTP. This is the standard option. For example,
To save these connection string changes, choose the OK button and then choose the Save button on the toolbar.
After you save these changes, you can get the value of this connection string in your code by using GetConfigurationSettingValue. When you publish your application to Windows Azure, choose the service configuration that contains the Windows Azure storage account for the connection string. After your application is published, verify that the application works as expected against the Windows Azure storage services

CNAP provides these benefits with a committed staff, an active Council, and numbers of partners and volunteers. The Natural Areas Act The Colorado Natural Areas Act of 1977 provides necessary guidelines to ensure Colorado's natural heritage through the identification, registration, designation and protection of qualified natural areas of statewide significance. Why Natural Areas? A Natural Areas designation allows agencies, land owners and citizens to work together to assure the preservation of Colorado's natural heritage, one species or one area at a time. Mutual agreements and ecological interest bind interested parties in pursuit of CNAP's mission.

The hour is late
So the governor has passed the new gas tax in the transportation budget. Wonderful. It amazes me that elitist politicians think taxes on the most fundamental items in our lives wont (further) cripple our economy. Those of us in the middle class spend a far greater percentage of our income on things like food and gas, especially in a rural area such as this, which is why all these little increases in living expense add up to a crippled economy and a struggling, sinking middle class. What amazes me even more is the lack of outrage from the people. Are you all: 1) in lockstep with the political elitists; 2) having your heads too far in the sand to have any clue whats going on in the world/economy around you; or 3) too scared to offend the thin-skinned, politically correct socialists strangling us.
The hour is late speak up.

Kevin Smith was delayed getting from Oakland to Burbank Saturday night because he was "too wide for the sky." According to the 'Clerks' and 'Jay & Silent Bob' director's Twitter, Southwest Airlines removed him from a flight after deeming him a safety risk.
"Dear @SouthwestAir – I know I'm fat, but was Captain Leysath really justified in throwing me off a flight for which I was already seated?" Smith tweeted.
"I'm way fat… But I'm not THERE just yet," he continued. "But if I am, why wait til my bag is up, and I'm seated WITH ARM RESTS DOWN. In front of a packed plane with a bunch of folks who'd already I.d.ed me as 'Silent Bob.'"
Smith was given a $100 voucher and put on a different Southwest flight, from which he continued to chronicle his mistreatment:
"Hey @SouthwestAir! Look how fat I am on your plane! Quick! Throw me off!" he tweeted along with the picture below.
"The @SouthwestAir Diet. How it works: you're publicly shamed into a slimmer figure. Crying the weight right off has never been easier!" he continued. "Hey @SouthwestAir! I've landed in Burbank. Don't worry: wall of the plane was opened & I was airlifted out while Richard Simmons supervised."
Southwest Airlines has a "customer of size" policy, requiring passengers to buy a second seat if they cannot fit between the arm rests. When extra seats are available these passengers are given refunds or relocated free of charge.
The company has not ignored Smith's Twitter rant.
"I've read the tweets all night from @thatkevinsmith – He'll be getting a call at home from our Customer Relations VP tonight," it tweeted. "Again, I'm very sorry for the experience you had tonight. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do."

10Best Latin American
(Restaurants - Latin American)
210 Hanover St, Boston 02113 617-720-0052
Distance: ~0.36 mi *
NORTH END. This sprawling restaurant occupies three-levels of a Hanover Street storefront. Infused with the flavors of Italy and Peru, the cuisine consists of rich pastas and tantalizing meats. Dig into the fiery cassava root gnocchi with slow braised green lamb ragu and shaved parmesan. Afterwards a delicate dish of hazelnut mousse, drizzled with dulce de leche, should cool off your palate. Martinis, imported beer and wine available.
(Restaurants - Latin American)
133 Federal St, Boston 02110 617-357-9727
Distance: ~0.91 mi *
FINANCIAL DISTRICT. Popular \"burrito\" bar serves up scrumptious tortilla wraps ranging from the classic bean burrito to the Asian-inspired Bangkok Thai.
Delux Cafe
(Restaurants - Latin American)
100 Chandler St, Boston 02116 617-338-5258
Distance: ~1.80 mi *
SOUTH END. Darken the doors of Delux, and you'll know you've entered a new dimensionChristmas lights and Elvis memorabilia abound. This pub probably takes the cake for mostly oddly decorated eatery in the South End! Regulars love it, though, and keep coming back for the diverse, Latin-influenced menu. Try the grilled cheese sandwich with mozzarella, roma tomatoes, and fresh pesto that will make you a Delux believer too! The menu also offers a notable selection of micro-brews.
Casa Romero
(Restaurants - Latin American)
30 Gloucester St, Boston 02115 617-536-4341
Distance: ~2.09 mi *
BACK BAY. Casa Romero offers diners a relaxing place to unwind with authentic Mexican dishes. The interior is alive with warm tones, and walls are either exposed brick or decorated with Talavera tiles. Traditional favorites include beef tenderloin enchiladas and seafood fajitas. Be sure to order a serving of delicious ricotta coconut cheesecake too. The place is rather upscale and a great spot for a romantic dinner or special night out.
Cactus Club
(Restaurants - Latin American)
939 Boylston St, Boston 02215 617-236-0200
Distance: ~2.16 mi *
BACK BAY. Here, the spicy fare is surpassed only by the stunning array of margaritas. How about a citrusy Platinum Marg with two potent ounces of Sauza Hornitos thrown in for good measure? Featured mains include such colorfully named dishes as the Tequila Sunrise (chicken breast marinated with lime, ginger, and tequila).
(Restaurants - Latin American)
477 Shawmut Ave, Boston 02118 617-369-7075
Distance: ~2.32 mi *
SOUTH END. For authentic South American fare, stop by this friendly Venezuelan kitchen at lunchtime and pick up an empanada or arepa (grilled corn pocket sandwich) filled with shredded chicken and avocado, black beans and cheese, or slow cooked pork. Dinner specials might include plantain-crusted mahi mahi or adobo smoked beef tenderloin, best complemented with wine, imported from Chile or Argentina. To avoid the midday rush, call in your lunch order before arriving. Limited seating available.
Midwest Grill
(Restaurants - Latin American)
1124 Cambridge St, Inman Square, Cambridge 02139 617-354-7536
Distance: ~2.33 mi *
CAMBRIDGE. It's all about the grill at this unusual restaurant. If you're a vegetarian, it's probably not the best spot for you, but if you love incredible roasted meats, it's definitely your stop! The place is a traditional churrasco rodizio, or rotating grill. At least seven grilling stations are scattered about the room, and servers bring selections of barbecued meat directly to your table. Everything is piping hot and delicious, and most meats are spiced or marinated. Additional menu items are brief and include sides, vegetables, and stew.
Olé Mexican Grill
(Restaurants - Latin American)
11 Springfield St, Inman Square, Cambridge 02139 617-492-4495
Distance: ~2.55 mi *
CAMBRIDGE. The festive interior of this Mexican dining room practically entices you to eat. Brightly colored walls are hung with decorative masks, and tables are constructed with cheery tiles. The menu features authentic fine Mexican food including stews, roasted duck in mole sauce or pan seared carne asada. Fresh guacamole is only made tableside and is an experience unto itself. Desserts and an extensive drink list make every meal enjoyable. Try a Patron gimlet or a tequila flight to get started.
El Pelon Taqueria
(Restaurants - Latin American)
92 Peterborough St, Boston 02215 617-262-9090
Distance: ~2.95 mi *
FENWAY DISTRICT. Hungry for authentic Mexican cuisine? Head to El Pelon Taqueria, and you'll be satisfied with both the taste and the prices. In fact, some diners secretly wonder if they've forgotten to update the prices on the menu! Try the quesadillas, fish tacos, or the cheese enchiladas, all are savory and spiced to perfection. This restaurant is quite small so don't plan to bring a crowd or linger over dinner. However, warm weather provides for extra seating outside. The interior is quite festive with the tables and chairs painted in a variety of light pastel colors.
Tacos El Charro
(Restaurants - Latin American)
349 Centre St, Jamaica Plain 02130 617-983-9275
Distance: ~4.18 mi *
JAMAICA PLAIN. This casual Mexican eatery is definitely cut from a different cloth. You're sure to notice that as soon as you spy the blinking taco sign that graces the restaurant's entrance. The interior continues the unusual decorating trend as it's decked out with piñatas, crazily colored sombreros, plants, and mirrors. The menu, however, is anything but strange. It's an artist's pallet of spice and flavor. The tamales, burritos, fajitas, and tacos are excellent due to a secret blend of spices and marinades. Wash it all down with an authentic Mexican soda.

Camouflage is a challenging crimp-fest between the Center Route and Rincon, well-bolted (although unfortunately with ring bolts that are hard to clip), continuous, and quite thin. Prepare thy tips for battle. Start either on Rincon and move left to the first bolt, or you can stick clip the first bolt (or clip from Rincon and downclimb) and attack the little boulder problem leading directly to the first bolt. Now proceed to edge and crimp your way up the clean wall, past a definite crux at the bolt below the roof. At the roof move a bit right, into the corner. Above this you have to reach out left blindly to clip the bolts, and then do a couple of tenuous and difficult moves to big holds and a 2-bolt anchor up and right. Crisp temperatures, good edging shoes, and fresh tips all help significantly, as does having the holds chalked up- they can be difficult to locate if not. This is a really exquisite bit of technical face climbing.
The crimps on this route are small, and hard to find (thus the namesake), but didn't tear my fingers up like some sharper routes have. I still had fun on this. Going to the first bolt on lead is difficult but it did not seem unreasonably hard to get to. After the initial roof is beat you are high up there, but not at a crux. The route also moves hard right and then back, between the second and third bolts. I had not looked at the topo and tried to stay the direct line. This proved to be extremely difficult, (impossible for me) and even when resorting to aiding though and attempting to TR it, I still failed to get it direct. I never did manage to redpoint the route, but it was a good time anyway. I don't care too much for sport-climbing in general, but this route offers a fairly fun and unique opportunity to do something a little different, and do it safely.
Sport climbing in Eldo... Wow. Dogged/"aided" this route on a hot day in July. A cooler day (or earlier in the morning before the sun hits) would probably make it a bit easier. We ended up clipping the first bolt while rapping from Center Route, but the moves going from the right is not difficult (if a bit dicey). My fingers took most of damage between bolt 2 & 3 while trying to figure out the moves. Otherwise, the crimps are not too unfriendly. I'll definitely have to come back for the redpoint (and free the crux move below the roof) someday.
The route description says to go right into the corner after the slab. Does anyone know how hard it is to climb the arete (which looks way better!) that is above the slab instead of the corner? Thanks!
To my knowledge the arete is unclimbed. Anyone else know more?
Saw a strong climber going directly onto the arete and got it clean last weekend. He said it was a lot harder than going to the right but didn't elaborate on the grade.
Is this the hardest slab route around Boulder? It sure feels super stout and sustained for the grade. Any of you slabmasters out there have a recommendation for other hard slab routes? Thanks!
Try the Black Face at Cadillac Crag. Really fun! I think it is supposed to be middle 12, but it seemed harder than that. Also, down in Clear Creek there is a thing called Black and Tan (?) on Wall of the Nineties that is pretty insane.... I couldn't figure it out.
There's a hard slab at Button Rock Reservoir...down off the creek. Can't remember the name.
This climb seemed to get better each time I worked it. The climbing is cryptic and the cruxes seem fairly beta intensive. The rock is bullet, one of the best slab routes I've been on. Sure felt like a sandbag at .12b...but I'm a softy.
