The Ranch Restaurant
Online Reservations
The steaks we ordered were done to perfection. I've eaten at other pricey steak houses but the steaks here were far and above the best I've eaten. I aso ordered the French Onion Soup. The soup is made with five different kinds of onions, aged Gruyere cheese, and Guiness. The soup was amazing. We had roasted vegetables as a side. The veggies were tender and bursting with flavor. If I had the recipe I'd be eating more veggies. For dessert we had the cheesecake which.. sadly... is better than mine. It was light, creamy, everything a cheesecake is supposed to be. The portion size was huge. For someone looking for something a little more upscale without wanting to spend $200+ this is the place.
We arrived early and had an additional guest, but were greeted at the door like old friends. The rib eye and the New York steak were the best we have ever had. Heirloom tomato salad was amazing! The food was utterly fantastic and the ambience was really great.
While expensive, it was well worth it! The flavors of everything complimented everything else. While the 3 types of mushrooms side was a bit salty for someone like me who really likes salt, even it was fabulous! The scalloped potatoes au gratin were out of this world! The big prime rib was indescribable. Better than Five Crowns & better than Ruth's Chris!! Definitely look forward to my next visit & tryig the filet.
We chose off the seasonal menu and we're so happy we did. We also added wine pairings which were spectacular. Rob was our server, and he was enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the food, extremely attentive, made our night truly special thanks to his recommendations and offerings (like the popcorn icecream). We liked that the vegetables were fresh from their ranch in Orange. The tomato salad (which is not on the printed menu), was to die for. The chef knew it was our anniversary, thanks to my hubby calling ahead of time, and sent out extra items, so we felt really special. the food was spectacular, flavorful, and tender (pork cheek, scallops, etc) The ambiance is quiet, dim, and romantic. We looooooved it!
All I can say is "WOW". What an amazing dinner, wine list, staff, especially our server Hillary. We WILL be back
The food was very good. I recommend the shrimp appetizer. Went for a birthday and she got to pick her own dessert, that she wanted. Very Nice! Short ribs were delicious. The service was outstanding!
We went for our anniversary after reading an article in Westward Ways. This restaurant exceeded our expectations. The service was amazing. From the moment we walked into the restaurant to the moment we left we felt appreciated and special. The wine was fantastic. The server made sure we were happy with our choices. The beet and heirloom tomato salad was delicious. The Chilean sea bass with lobster risoto was Devine. My husband had the short rib. The Cabernet sauce was rich and bursting with flavor. We could not stop talking about our experience Monday at work. We absolutely love this restaurant. The ambiance, the food, the service were tremendous.
What a fantastic spot. Farm to table, fantastic service and even better food! Can't believe this place has been here for two years and we only just found it. Not enough words to compliment this restaurant on it's server who - without being prompted - clued into the special occasion we were celebrating. The chef sent a beautiful dessert (complimentary) to acknowledge our celebration. I want to shout to the rooftops how great this place is, and yet I want to keep this restaurant a secret so there won't be a two-hour wait.
Could be. The steak is that good. I had the prime rib this time, although last time my husband and I shared the Cowboy steak- 58 OZ of bone in steak. The prime rib was so good I ate it cold out of the fridge, dipping it into the Au Jus and Creamed Horseradish cold. The only problem we had with food was an over dressed salad, and I would request dressing on the side next time. We celebrated two birthdays, and they nicely cpomped us our choice of dessert, not something premade. The creamed corn was good, scalloped potatoes au gratin delish. Yum! After dinner our waiter asked if we wanted to go to the saloon, and had the manager sign our reciept so we could enter without paying the cover charge- yeehaw!
How do I start? My mom recommended the restaurant to see since she went already with her friends few weeks ago. She said the prime rib tasted 10x's better then lawry's haha. But instead my brother he ordered the wrong food. LOL so we got the lamb. :( The lamb I wouldn't recommend to anyone. It's too salty. Too oily. Too much fat in the meat. And it didn't seem like it was cooked well. Overall all the dishes was not bad. The dessert was good.
My son and his wife along with my wife and I tried The Ranch 2 months earlier. We loved it! Jason our waiter helped make it an especially fine dining experience. This time, we were told Jasons' section was full and it would be awhile for an opening. We waited at our table about 10 minutes and nothing. Finally our waitress came and we asked for water with lemon, another 10 minutes and nothing. A bus boy brought water but no lemon. We felt slighted, when Jason showed up to see who had asked for him. He quickly remembered us, we told him our plight he said I'll take care of it. He said the waitress had agreed to switch so he could take care of us.......It then became the most delightful evening ever, to remember our 47th Anniversary!!!
We had a wonderful time at The Ranch. The food and service was second to none. I highly recommend this place for a special occasion or anything at all. This restaurant will be around for a long time. Make it a point to have dinner here. You won't regret it.
The french onion soup is the best I have ever had...anywhere. Everything I have ordered here has been excellent! They make a great mojito here also. This is not a cheap place though. Entrees are mostly in the $30-$40 range, and that is a-la-carte. There is a saloon next door with live country western bands. If you eat at the restaurant, they will walk you over to the saloon, with no cover charge :-) Dress here could be super-dressy or western casual.
I absolutely enjoyed The Ranch. The food was great -- most definitely try the steaks and rib dishes. Cappuccino was absolutely the best. The popovers, incredible. But most important and noteworthy of all was the wait staff. What an incredible group of dedicated and caring individuals, especially our waiter Brenton. He is the consummate professional, exhibiting that special touch of noticing everything and ensuring our meal experience was truly memorable and noteworthy. I would, without hesitation recommend him and will definitely request him in the future. This is a very special restaurant and an Anaheim gem. Worthy of your time and indulgence.
We finally got around to visiting the Ranch - prior attempts failed because we could not get a table - and now I can't believe we waited to so long eat there. The dinner was one of the best I have had all year (including places in OC, LA or SF). We had the pumpkin bisque, prime rib, sea bass and NY Strip and pecan pie. Everything was done just right and was amazing. Combine that with the service by the staff and overall it was a dining experience you did not want to end. The Ranch and the adjoining saloon have cowboy roots, but the dress code is more OC (think Mastro's or Napa Rose - which is where the chef spent years perfecting his menu). I can't wait to go back.
Server, Hillary, was EXTREMELY knowledgeable about wine & competently answered questions regarding the cuisine. Service was impeccable; in addition to Hillary inquiring if are meals were okay, several others (probably management) also stopped by our table. Heirloom beet salad was outstanding with other ingredients that married well. Famous rolls were disappointing & gummy. We'll try the popovers next time. Prime rib and filet mignon dinners were served rare, as ordered and had great flavor. Shared a pecan pie for dessert, which was very memorable. The restaurant was exquisitely decorated and the noise level was very low; we could easily hold a conversation. Walked to the saloon after dinner to watch line dancing instruction in progress.
I give The Ranch an overall 5 star rating. From the moment I walked in to the moment I walked out the customer service was amazing. The table service, the wine, the food, all of it left an impression of "I am definitely going back again and again"! It is a higher priced restaurant so be prepared for that. Our server James could not have made the evening any better. We then went into the saloon (accompanied by our waiter) where our experience there was also fabulous. Thank you for a wonderful evening!!!
I won a $50 gift certificate to this restaurant as part of a Disneyland package so decided to try it out. It was fabulous!!! My husband and I eat at higher end restaurants often enough to understand the difference between good and great food. This was definitely toward the great end of the spectrum. My filet literally melted in my mouth and we both really enjoyed the seasonal ingredients (it was fall and both entrees had pumpkin as part of the side). They also had a number of wines available by the glass. For those wondering, despite its proximity to Disneyland, it is not kid-friendly. We left our son with a babysitter and had a great date night. I would definitely eat here again.
What a special spot. The bar was great and the restaurant fantastic.
We came for an anniversary celebration and we're made to feel special in every way. Impeccable service on every level, delicious food, great wine selection and delightful accommodations.
We took another couple, and this was their first time dining at The Ranch. The food and service were good and we all had a very nice time
This was a dining experience with excellent food. We tried new foods and this is the place to try it. The prime rib was the among the best we've ever had and the flavors in each dish/sauce were bold yet worked together with the meal. My only complaint is the timing between courses was very long. There were three of us and one ordered the Chef Menu of four pre-selected courses. This led to a delay, understandably to let the "Chef" diner enjoy each course, before the other two diners were able to get their main course. I recommend that if this happens to you, make sure they order some other starter like appetizers, soup or salad. Make sure to enjoy the Milky Way dessert!!
My husband and I brought 3 friends all celebrating October birthdays. From the time we were seated (almost to the minute of our reservation) to the complimentary birthday desserts, our experience was flawless. All of the food was absolutely excellent (LOVED the tuna tartare - perfection), and our server, Dublin, was a great sport. He made good recommendations and even sawed the bone from the cowboy steak in half for our 2 dogs. We brought our own wine, subject to the 2 bottle limit and $25 corkage, but the list is excellent and we tried a delicious Italian sparkler that was new to us, in addition to our cabernet. Our friends had a terrific time and we have a new go-to spot for entertaining near the Honda Center.
One of my favorite restaurants in OC. So far everything we have tried on the menu has been excellent. Corkage is $25 - which is reasonable. Was a little disappointed that we didn't get the proper wine glasses and our waiter pushed the prix fixe menu a little too hard - but those issues are pretty minor and did not detract from the overall experience. The seasonal dishes are worth making a drive over now - prime rib special and the squash soup. Don't miss the pecan pie - so good it will bring a tear to eye of even the most die hard NC visitor!
It is wonderful to have a quality restaurant (both in food and service) in Orange County. I highly recommend this be the next restaurant on your list to visit; it may not be your last visit.
I decided to try this restaurant to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday and I am so glad I did. The place was beautiful! From the moment we walked in the restaurant we were greeted with smiles and positive energy. We were blessed with Hillary as our server who was amazing throughout the whole evening. She was friendly, made great suggestions and provided us with top notch service. My husband felt so special and enjoyed the whole evening from beginning to end. It was perfect. We are already raving about this place and we are preparing another trip back to introduce the restaurant to our familly and friends.
Please work on the dessert menu. Need more chocolate , like chocolate soufflé , pies ,
I travel weekly for work. I have enjoyed steaks at all the premium steakhouses with multiple locations...Mortons, Ruth's Chris, Palm, Capital Grille...NONE of them offer a steak like the one I had at The Ranch. My colleague and I shared the 52oz Bone In Ribeye. It was incredibly flavorful. The sides were outstanding and the dessert...try the Twisted Milky Way. This is one restaurant that I will return to each time I am in Anaheim!
My usual choice for a great steak and good service is Morton's or Ruth Chris, but this place went above and beyond. Sure they might have over seasoned my steak a little, but it war a choice cut that was juicy until the last bite. The service is second to none for this price range of restaurants, I never poured a single glass of wine myself and our waiter was quite knowledgable about everything on the menu. I'll definitely come here again.
My husband and I escaped to The Ranch for dinner without the kids. I started with the heirloom beet salad. The salad was amazing. My husband isn't a fan of beets but he kept stealing bites. It was that good! My husband started with the ceasar salad. It was good but nothing special. Wwe decided to share the cowboy ribeye. It was cooked perfectly and had a very tasty crust on it. the giant rib bone sticking out was a littl unwieldy but went along with the experience. We were pretty full but couldn't resist dessert. I had a single scoop of salted caramel ice cream. Heaven! My husband is a peanut butter fanatic so he went with the PB&J bar and ate every bite of it. We will definitely be making a return visit!
The Ranch has great food service is excellent. After diner you can go next door to the Saloon for drinks and dancing
We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience. The food was delicious, the portions were perfect and the service was fantastic. The pumpkin bisque was amazing, as well as the steaks. Our server was very attentive and checked on us regularly. The manager made sure to stop by our table and we were given a scrumptious dessert of our choice for the birthday guest. I highly recommend The Ranch to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.
I'm very impressed and look forward to the next opportunity to enjoy such a lovely dining experience. I love to find something special, and The Ranch was definitely special for me and my guest. The complete staff, their attentive and extraordinary service, to the fine interior ambience made it quality dining; where we were the very important guests. For me it is priced so that I think of it as a place to impress or be impressed. The menu is excellent, as well as their comprehensive wine list. I am expecting my return to The Ranch will be as special as my first dining experience.
Be sure to try the beet salad and the cowboy ribeye.
We have been to The Ranch several times, each time bringing someone with us who hadn't been there yet. As usual, we had a wonderful dining experience. Just love this place!
Another great meal at the Ranch......Chilean Sea Bass and the Prime Rib was perfection, service timely, superb wine list.
The Restaurant has a great ambiance, Menu is well thought out and selections are plentiful. Not a place for a low budget meal, this restaurant has lobster mac n' cheese, deviled eggs, twice baked potatoes, great steaks and fish selections. Service is spot on and when your finished you can be led over to the saloon to bypass the line and coverage charge. Another hot spot, all types of music but specializing in country dancing and music. 5 stars out of 5
The lobster Mac n cheese was great. All the food we ordered was awesome. I didn't like the idea that because we only bought one entree we only qualified for one entrance to the club. We were only three people and our tab was over 150.00 yet they would only give us one entrance fee.
This is my first time dining at The Ranch. My experience was phenomenal. The food, the service, the wine selection, the ambience. Just fabulous. I can't recommend this restaurant enough. This place is an easy five stars.
I was very surprised to find such a fantastic restaurant so close to Disneyland. I have to say this was a meal that was out of its element being so close to mediocre chain restaurants that feed off of the tourist population of the Disney parks. We stumbled upon this gem when realizing eating in the park, even at its best, is still sub par. I am a Las Vegas native and have to say, this place could compete on the strip any day.
My experience for the first time at The Ranch was picture perfect. We were celebrating our anniversary, I couldn't have picked a better place to celebrate it at. This was hands down one of the most beautiful restaurant's I've been to in a long time. The service was excellent and the food was amazing. I will definitely return. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!!!
We had a fabulous Thanksgiving dinner with our children. I think they should do away with the pot pie -- not so good. Everything else was fabulous.
Our server was Michael who set the benchmark for excellent service. Amazing food, decor, professional staff. All for a completely reasonable price. I'm hooked on The Ranch.
....a Fabulous Thanksgiving Dinner. My family and I had a dining experience at the Ranch. We loved the service and definitely the food. We thought we were going to miss the traditional Turkey dinner this year on our trip to Disneyland but thanks to the Ranch we had a delicious Thanksgiving dinner feast. We would recommend this place to any one that travels to Disneyland or are around the area.
Once again the food was great and the wine was even better. The most notable trait of the ranch is the excellent service - over and above the great food.
The cowboy cut rib eye steak was cooked to perfection! The service was impeccable and the wine selection for the "chef's menu" was spot on. This was the perfect place to celebrate our wedding anniversary.
The moment we were seated until the moment we left was a great experience. The food was great...from farm to restaurant. Compliments to the chef and The Ranch employees for making it a great dining experience.
I took my wife and another couple to dinner at the Ranch to celebrate friendship. We all had something different and shared all the food throughout the night. Everything was delicious especially the deviled eggs and the soups! The service was great and we really had an excellent time.
The Ranch is simply outstanding in every way. The restaurant interior design is beautiful. It's a warm, elegantly lit, contemporary western theme. The host staff is very friendly, and very attentive to our request for booth seating. This is our third visit and each and every time the service is impeccable, as is the food! This restaurant is a gem, and without a doubt one of the very best places to dine in Orange County. I highly recommend it!

The Crescent Hotel Beverly Hills at Crescent Drive and Brighton Way prides itself on being a 35-room boutique hotel with a "bigger-is-not-always-better" sensibility. The recently renovated hotel built in 1927 has two additional rooms that are downright teensy, but they come with a tiny price tag: $99 a night.
The deal: This is a great insider tip for Beverly Hills visitors who are traveling solo and for those who would rather spend time sightseeing than in their room. The Crescent's Itty-Bitty rooms feature a full-size bed, flat-screen TV, iPod and docking station and bathroom in just 135 square feet. "All you need to bring is yourself and your favorite little black dress because that's all you'll have room for," a hotel statement says.
You won't find information about the rooms online; guests must contact the hotel directly to reserve. (Ask for the Itty-Bitty rooms.) But just because the room is small doesn't mean you can't hang out at the hotel's terrace and lobby and take advantage of other amenities and services such free pressing/steaming of clothes and luggage storage.
When: Rooms reservations are based on availability.
Details: Top prices at the Crescent run about $250 a night for the hotel that's close to Rodeo Drive and Beverly Hills shopping. The small rooms offer a nice price in a nice location.

One block can have many different names. How many names does the eight pointed star have, for instance. I was cleaning out my block library and came across a couple that are interchangeable. So you tell me which they are, OK? Fish, bird, or plane? | |||
How 'bout if I turn them sideways? | ||||
well they look like little fishies to me.... CC | ||||
Looks like the bottom right is the plane the top the bird and the other the fish. | ||||
Looks like a variation on the half square triangle to me. Or fish.... | ||||
I see 3 goldfish - even if they are blue. | ||||
lolllll Quilt Pro has a subscription where you get a new block every day. I've been collecting them for a couple of years and recently I've been seeing duplicates. Last night I was looking for something mindless to do and decided to clean out the block library. As quilters we do know some blocks have many names while being the same block. These three, in particular, tickled me. As with other blocks, depending on the fabrics used, they all were called a bird, a fish, or a plane. I guess, blocks like beauty, are in the eye of the beholder, or quilter. | ||||

"Cupcake Vodka Original is six-times distilled to remove impurities while delivering a mouth-feel reminiscent of an indulgent delicious treat."I haven't tried this stuff, and I'm not sure I want to. I prefer to keep my alcohol consumption separate from my sweet tooth. And if this review from Gawker is any indication, it's probably a good idea to keep it that way.

We're shocked they missed the opportunity to go for the sad girl with cravings trifecta and have a red velvet cupcake vodka with a picture of a cat on the bottle.But if you want a real laugh, check out the first comment!

"Robin" is the young lady who brought a sign to Miller Park Friday night demanding, "Marry me, Ryan." It came complete with her real cell phone number, and caught the all-seeing eyes of FS Wisconsin crew members, who put Robin on the air during the Brewers' blowout win over the Astros. Hilarity ensued as fans from Waukesha to Wauwatosa entertained themselves by flooding her voicemail inbox.
The rest of the half-inning was pure raw comedy, with Braun's would-be lady wondering why her phone was ringing off the hook with calls and texts and why field reporter Telly Hughes would possibly want to interview her.
'It seemed like a good idea," she said in the ensuing interview.
Gutsy move, and it worked. Braun called after the game and got Robin's voice mail, which was unfortunately full.
"I guess it wasn't meant to be," Braun said with a smile.
KISS members Gene Simmons, Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer took time out from recording their new album in Los Angeles to appear last Thursday at the New York Auto Show. Wearing their stage costumes, they helped unveil four KISS-inspired custom-painted and autographed Countryman Minis, which will be auctioned off to aid UNICEF's efforts to help children in Japan and around the world. The auction starts on May 29th.
Afterward, Simmons said he had his eye on one of the cars. "I want the Demon," said the Demon. Thayer added, "Mini Coopers have a rock and roll history. Back in the '60s The Beatles used to drive Mini Coopers -- Paul McCartney, John Lennon."

The state of New York has recently released a new list of "dangerous" activities that summer camps need to keep out of their programs.
Yes. We are getting wimpier and wimpier by the year.
Here are a few things on the list:
Bret Michaels will release his fifth solo album, Get Your Rock On, in June. He says, "This one is primarily straight-up rock songs, which I think people will like. I've written a lot of good stuff over the last few years that I think are just good rock songs. I feel really strong about it."
But before that, Michaels will be featured on the latest Kidz Bop children's album. Along with his daughters Raine and Jorja [pr: Georgia], Michaels sings a version of Posion's "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" on Kidz Bop Sings Monster Ballads, in stores May 17th. A portion of the proceeds from the album will go to his Juvenile Diabetes Foundation and the American Diabetes Association.

Great to see the restaurant full again last night. The starters were delicious, grey mullet with chilli,garlic and ginger for myself and scallops with pancetta and pea puree for my husband, then belly pork and steak for main course. The owner is a great host and the staff are delightful, thank you for another fab night.

text: Sri Lanka: MSF Is Outraged by the Killing of Action Against Hunger MembersAugust 11, 2006Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is deeply shocked and outraged by the announcement of the killing of 17 members of Action Contre la Faim/Action Against Hunger in Sri Lanka. MSF is concerned about the turn this conflict is taking. Since hostilities resumed, the level of violence directed at civilian populations and humanitarian aid workers has increased. Gabriel Trujillo and Denis Lemasson, MSF program officers for Sri Lanka, react to the news. What was your reaction to the murders of the Action Against Hunger members in Sri Lanka?We are deeply shocked. The event generated considerable emotion within the organization. This concerns the entire international humanitarian community. These targeted killings are unprecedented in the contemporary humanitarian experience and words are not strong enough to describe these odious acts. We share the pain of the victims' families and that of all members of Action Against Hunger. We strongly hope that an independent investigation will quickly bring the circumstances and the people responsible for this tragedy to light. What was the context in which these killings occurred?Since the conflict resumed, the general climate in Sri Lanka has been extremely tense, with suspicions and accusations on all sides. We observe a tightening of restrictions and draconian controls on aid organizations in the field. After the killings, we were worried about where the conflict would lead, as it has reached a very troubling level of violence affecting civilian populations and humanitarian organizations. Is MSF now prevented from working with the victims of the conflict?Over the last two weeks, the populations in the Muttur region, in eastern Sri Lanka (where the slain 17 Action Against Hunger members were found), were victims of military incursions and it was impossible to provide assistance in that area. Several tens of thousands of people are still there, without medical care. MSF has been trying to set up two emergency projects for more than two months. One is a surgery project at the Point Pedro hospital on the Jaffna peninsula and the other would provide medical assistance to people living between Muttur and Batticaloa. As of today, however, government authorities have not provided the authorizations required to carry out these programs. It is currently impossible for us to gain access to civilian populations in the eastern part of the country. Tags: Sri Lanka, Humanitarian Issues |

Galicia and Asturias Sights
Santiago de Compostela holds center stage in Spain's northwest corner, the final destination of the Camino de Santiago. To the south are the Rías Baixas, to the west the beaches along the Atlantic coast. Farther north is the thriving port of A Coruña; the Bay of Biscay lies east, along the coast of Asturias. Oviedo is just inland, backed by the Picos de Europa, with Cantabria to the east.

Finding Cricket
Ten years ago this week, Susan Fedorko answered her phone and ended a 22-year search. On the other end of the line was her younger half-sister — someone she had never met. Both were daughters of a model, if not supermodel, who graced the covers of Vogue, Harpers and other magazines, but started her career after giving up her older daughter for adoption.By: Tammy Francois, Lake County News Chronicle

Clean Water Programs
Through environmental education and outreach, the BoatU.S. Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water helps boaters, anglers, and other user groups understand how they can be better stewards of the natural resources they enjoy. We do this by sharing practical ideas, proven best practices, and information on laws and regulations. We want you to go out and enjoy boating, but also take care of our natural resources while you are out there. Our goal is to help equip you with the information that you need to be a caretaker of the environment. After all, those of us that enjoy the water have a significant vested interest in its health, as well as the health of all the fish and other animals that live in and around our waters.
Go Green with these 21 Simple Steps to Cleaner Boating
Stash Your Trash
- Reduce the amount of packaging and plastic you take aboard.
- Put a sturdy trash container on your boat.
- Obey the law-always keep garbage on the boat for onshore disposal or recycling. Keep all trash on board while boating in inland and coastal waters.
- Establish a boat rule that no trash gets thrown overboard-even apple cores and cigarette butts.
- Leave the water and marina cleaner than you found it-carefully pick up trash left by others.
The Scoop on Poop
- Use onshore restrooms before leaving shore.
- Obey the law-keep untreated sewage out of all coastal and inland waters.
- If your boat has a head, equip it with a USCG-approved Marine Sanitation Device: Type I, II or III.
- Use enzyme deodorizers for holding tanks and portable toilets.
Stop the Drops
- Know how much fuel your tanks hold and don't top off!
- Make sure anyone fueling the boat knows which deck fill is for fuel.
- Use oil absorbent pads to catch drips while handing the fuel nozzle between the dock and the boat.
- Fill up your trailerboat's gas tanks while the boat is on the trailer, not in the water.
Maintain Your Boat
- Regularly scrub your decks with fresh water and a brush to reduce the need to use heavy cleaners.
- Try to do large cleaning and maintenance jobs while the boat is out of the water.
- Ask your marina or underwater diver to recycle used zincs.
- Use a hard (non ablative) anti-fouling paint if you plan on scrubbing the boat bottom while in the water.
Here Fishy, Fishy…
- Keep only those fish that you will eat today.
- Practice catch and release techniques to ensure the survival of those fish you toss back.
- Use circle hooks.
- Wet hands or gloves before handling fish you will release.

There are many reasons why you need a phone and top on the list is the ability to make calls and send mails. A windows phone has various features beside the common ones and for you to save on your time as you use them, it is vital to know where to press for you to use them effectively. The following are some of tips to help you enjoy this unique handset to the maximum without wasting a lot of time.
Accessing contacts:
If you want to call a person whom you have already saved in your contacts, instead of scrolling on your handset looking for them, use the shortcut. All you will do is click the first letter of their name and the names on your phone which start with the letter will pop up. Choose the correct one and make your call.
Control music without unlocking your screen:
If you are in a bus or a place where you do not want to look at your phone to either reduce or increase the volume of your music, the best option will be to use a shortcut. When you use the up and down keys you will reduce or increase the volume without having to unlock the phone.
Retaining previous applications:
In the event that you were using a certain application and then left it, if you wish to get back to it, press and hold the "back" icon. That will bring up "fast application switching". When you see these words, select the screen image which you are looking for.
Customizing backgrounds:
If you have a certain image that you wish to use as a background, go to your "camera roll" or "saved pictures" and then click "add to favorites". This you will only do if you are at "menu".
Getting the full website:
For you to get the full website, click '…' icon then scroll all the way to settings. Tap on settings and there will be several options for you to choose from. Select "website preferences" and choose "desktop version". After that reload the existing page and the server will give you a full website.

The Walgreens on Piney Orchard Parkway isn't open yet, but vandals have already made their mark.
It appears that someone recently spray-painted a brick wall surrounding the store's trash receptacle.
The graffiti appears to show a person's name, along with some numbers and the words "sorry bro."
Reader Jay Stubler alerted Patch to the graffiti and sent these photos.
(The photo above has been altered slightly by Patch to disguise the appearance of a profane word. The unedited photo is attached.)
The graffiti is not visible from the street, but can be seen by anyone parking near the back of the store.
Walgreens is expected to open later this fall.

In a sign of Apple's increasing vulnerability to hackers, some Mac computers belonging to Apple employees were infected with Java-related malware when the employees visited a software development website, the company announced Tuesday.
The disclosure follows a similar Java-related cyberattack against Facebook that was revealed Friday and comes after President Barack Obama called on Congress in his State of the Union address to impose tougher legislation to protect American interests from cyberattacks.
Apple iPhones and iPads do not appear to be infected, and the Cupertino, Calif., company did not disclose how many of its employees' computers were infected or when. It issued a software fix Tuesday aimed at customers who already had installed Java on their Macs.
Windows-based operating systems have been the most popular targets of hacker attacks. But hundreds of thousands of Mac computers were hit last year with a Trojan horse virus called "Flashback" and the latest cyberattack is a troubling sign.
"Definitely, Macs are not as secure as they were previously," said Liam O Murchu, a researcher with Symantec. "Until last year, we hadn't seen a lot of Mac threats. This showcases that Macs are not invulnerable."
Neil Cook, chief tech officer for Cloudmark, which works on Internet security issues, said Apple's rising popularity makes it a bigger target for hackers.
"Apple's market size has always lagged behind," Cook said. "Now 1 in every 3 laptops sold is a Mac, so they've become extremely mainstream, and they've entered that sweet spot that hackers are looking for."
"The malware was employed in an attack against Apple and other companies, and was spread through a website for software developers," Apple said in a statement. "We identified a small number of systems within Apple that were infected and isolated them from our network. There is no evidence that any data left Apple. We are working closely with law enforcement to find the source of the malware."

With the increasing interest in environmental sustainability in terms of reuse and recycle, we turn to the past for inspiration.

Four— Jeannette Meyer Thurber (1850–1946): Music for a Democracy
1. Edward N. Waters, Victor Herbert: A Life in Music (New York: Macmillan, 1955), 52-53. [BACK]
2. John Sullivan Dwight, who believed in and preached the doctrine of music listening as an innately ennobling experience, taught two, if not three, generations of Americans what was "correct" in music through his influential, Boston-based Dwight's Journal of Music . He had strong leanings toward German instrumental music and was not particularly appreciative of American music and musicians except as they conformed to his own views. Louis Moreau Gottschalk, for instance, felt himself to be a special target of Dwight's scorn. In 1841 Dwight solemnly assured a Harvard Musical Association audience that instrumental music, uncorrupted by language, was the highest form of musical expression, and that Beethoven's slow movements were in fact profound utterances of sacred music. That lecture is also cited in Michael Broyles, "Music and Class Structure in Antebellum Boston," Journal of the American Musicological Society 44 (1991): 451-93. [BACK]
3. Body's letter to JMT and his accompanying notes are in the Boyd Memorial Foundation Collection of the Carnegie Library in Pittsburgh, Pa., filed as a "Class A" letter, dated 25 September 1918. [BACK]
4. James Gibbons Huneker, Steeplejack , 2 vols. (New York: Scribner, 1920-21), 2: 65-66. [BACK]
5. [Olin Downes], "Friend of Music," New York Times , 12 January 1946, 14. This article is unsigned; however, a copy bearing his signature was sent to a summer resident of the Onteora colony by Downes, implying that it was his (Archive of the Onteora Club Library). [BACK]
6. My thanks to E. Davis Gaillard, librarian of the Onteora Club, Tannersville, N.Y., for making his personal files, which contain a great deal of previously unpublished information on JMT, available to me. [BACK]
7. Other members of the quartet were Richard Grant White, Eugene Dabney, and its founder, Joseph W. Drexel. [BACK]
8. See Kathleen McCarthy, "Candace Wheeler and the Decorative Arts Movement," in Women's Culture: American Philanthropy and Art, 1830-1930 (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1991), 35-36; also, Mary Blanchard, "The Intellectual Roots of an Aesthetic: Candace Wheeler and Her American Vision" (paper presented at the annual meeting of the American Studies Association, 1991). [BACK]
9. "A Few Words on Aunt Cannie" (talk given by Jeannette Thurber Connor, daughter of Francis and Jeannette Thurber, on the occasion of the dedication of the Candace Wheeler Wild Flower Garden at Onteora, 7 September 1921; privately printed, [1921]), Onteora Club Library. [BACK]

13. Program Notes , New York Philharmonic concert of 7 November 1940. [BACK]
14. This seems to have constituted the first full-dress production of Wagner's works as a series in the United States. In 1859 Carl Bergmann had given the American premiere of Tannhäuser at the old Stadt Theatre in the Bowery with the participation of the Arion chorus. A second production of a full Wagner opera did not take place until 1870, when A. Neuendorf put on Lohengrin at the same hall. While extracts had been presented in concert form at other times and places, those were the only performances of complete, fully staged Wagner operas preceding JMT's 1884 festival. [BACK]

37. I am indebted to Josephine Harrold Love for bringing the name of Edward Bolin (or Bohlen) to my attention. It has been difficult to track down his identity, however. He may have been the same person as Paul Bolin, identified as a piano student at the National Conservatory. [BACK]

48. The petition may have failed as much because it came before Congress at an awkward time as for any other reason. President Grover Cleveland vigorously opposed "pork-barrel" increases in government spending and had specifically charged Congress not to use the large tax surplus for new projects. Furthermore, everyone's attention was riveted on election politics, with Benjamin Harrison challenging Cleveland in a heated contest centering on tariffs and taxes. [BACK]

The Richard Martin Exhibition Award
Scholars' Roundtable Honor
Purpose The Richard Martin Exhibition Award annually recognizes up to two institutions for outstanding achievement in the area of costume exhibition. Awards will be presented at the National Symposium, where a representative from each of the award winning institutions will present a slide talk on their institution's costume exhibition. Each presenter receives an honorarium to apply toward travel and symposium expenses.
Description Exhibitions are the public face of museums and other select cultural institutions. It is through the effective interpretation and presentation of costume collections that the vast majority of people encounter the field of world dress.
Costume exhibitions are by their nature complex, and even modest ones require the time, energy and expertise of many people. They are collaborative efforts and represent the synergy of the curator's scholarship, a conservator's skill, the designer and preparator's artistry, the development department's fund raising success, the promotional skills of marketing, educational programming, and frequently the devoted efforts of docents and other volunteers.
The Richard Martin Exhibition Award is named for Richard Martin (1947-1999), curator of costumes at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Fashion Institute of Technology. An elegant and gracious man, Richard Martin was an outstanding scholar, lecturer, critic and curator of many critically acclaimed costume exhibitions. A Fellow of the Costume Society of America, Richard Martin served on its board of directors for six years. He also served as editor of Dress, the society's scholarly journal, and as president of the Mid-Atlantic Region. This award annually recognizes up to two institutions for excellence in the exhibition of costume. These exhibitions exemplify the standards of excellence established by the late Richard Martin.
Eligibility The Richard Martin Award annually recognizes up to two institutions for outstanding achievement in the area of costume exhibition. The recipients of this award are recognized for a costume exhibition mounted either at a museum, historical society, historic house, an academic department within an institution of higher learning, or at a site where museum standards are applied. If the exhibition combines costume with other materials, such as paintings, decorative arts, etc., at least sixty percent of the objects on display must be costume.
At least one member of the exhibition team must be a member of the Costume Society of America.
Institutions are not eligible to receive the award more than once in three consecutive years.
Note: The Costume Society of America recognizes that exhibition size is not necessarily an indicator of excellence. It also acknowledges that large institutions with large exhibition budgets may have an unfair advantage over smaller institutions with less funding. In order to balance competition between exhibitions of different size and funding, up to two Richard Martin Awards may be awarded each year. The committee reserves the right to withhold one or both awards if submissions do not attain the excellence outlined in this document.
Deadline Only those exhibitions presented in the fifteen months prior to the January 15 entry deadline will be considered.
Entries must be postmarked on or before January 15th and mailed to the national office of the Costume Society of America.
Award The awards will be presented each year at the spring symposium of the Costume Society of America. At the following year's symposium, each institution's designated recipient of the Richard Martin Exhibition Award will present a slide talk and introduction to his/her institution's exhibition. Each presenter receives an honorarium to apply toward travel and symposium expenses.

Q&A with Michelle Snow
Circleville High School
The selection process
All nominees were eligible for all scholarships. Winners were chosen by a panel of
Dispatch judges, who considered academic and athletic performance, school leadership,
community service and other criteria.
The Sneed honor
This award is presented on behalf of Capt. Warren B. Sneed, a 1991 Dispatch scholar-athlete
from Circleville High School who died in November 2000 in a military accident over the Sea of
Japan. The award has been presented annually since 2001.
The photography
The photos of the scholarship winners were taken at various public and private sites in
Columbus, including Bicentennial Park, the Franklin Park Conservatory, the lobby of the LeVeque
Tower and near murals in the Short North, the Grandview Heights area and the Ohio State campus.
The Dispatch thanks managers of the conservatory, the LeVeque and This 'n That on the
The photos were taken by
Dispatch photographers Eric Albrecht, Brooke LaValley, Kyle Robertson and Chris Russell,
with photo imaging done by Ted Kibble
Questions, comments
If you have a question or comment about the section or
The Dispatch's Scholar-Athlete program, contact Sports Editor Ray Stein at 614-461-5236 or
by email at
Wolfe Associates
Second runner-up female scholar-athlete
Grade-point average: 4.32
Sports played: Soccer (four years), track (four).
Academic highlights: Honda-OSU Math Medal Award winner; National Honor Society member; scored 31 on ACT.
Athletic highlights: Second-team all-Ohio, first-team all-district and all-league in soccer; first-team all-district and all-league in track.
College: Ohio State (anticipated major: chemical engineering).
Home front: I live with my two parents, Rob and Cheryl Snow, and my 15-year-old brother, Jonathan.
Favorite subject: Calculus. I like solving problems, and I prefer when there is a definite answer.
Least-favorite subject: English. Open-ended questions always have me second-guessing myself, and I have never been gifted at writing. I truly dislike poetry because poems are left open to interpretation, and I either don't think deeply enough, or I overkill my interpretation.
How I relax: I like to listen to music. For the most part, I like any kind, but anything with a fun and upbeat rhythm usually stands out.
Prized possession: My laptop, because it contains all of my schoolwork and college information.
Favorite movie: My favorite movie for the last 17 years is still The Lion King. It's a movie that brings me closer to my dad because he and I know almost every line and song. Plus, Disney movies are timeless. Even after growing up, there are still things that can make me laugh.
Favorite book: T he Hunger Games trilogy.
Favorite musician: Adam Levine from Maroon 5.
Favorite website: Youtube.com.
Favorite home-cooked meal: Spaghetti and meatballs made by my grandpa.
My cooking specialty: Scrambled eggs.
Favorite restaurant: Mongolian Barbeque. I like to experiment with different combinations of food. The relaxed atmosphere and ability to choose from so many different options keeps me coming back.
Proudest sports moment: Breaking the school record in the 4 x 400 meter relay my senior year. We broke it last week at our district track meet.
Sport I'd like to try someday: I've always wanted to try lacrosse. I've never had the opportunity to be exposed to it, and I like trying new things. The physical and strategic aspects make it more appealing because they fit my personality and provide a fun challenge.
Favorite athlete: Landon Donovan. I like his determination and extraordinary effort. That's the kind of athlete I strive to be and encourage others to be as well.
Inspiration: My parents, who have instilled the values of hard work, perseverance and equality, inspire me to never stop trying to improve myself.
Person I'd most like to meet: Mia Hamm, my childhood hero.
Place I'd most like to travel: Brazil to attend the 2014 World Cup.
Something most people don't know about me: That I'm afraid to disappoint people.
Least-favorite household chore: I dislike doing the dishes more than anything.
Something I cannot get right no matter how hard I try: I've always had trouble speaking in public; I always tend to stumble over my words from getting so nervous.
Where I see myself in 10 years: I plan to be working as a chemical engineer, possibly in the automotive industry.
What I'll miss about high school: I'll miss the friendships I've acquired and the sense of familiarity that comes with being around most of the same people for 12 years.
What I'm looking forward to in college: Advancing my education and gaining more independence.
Advice for an underclassman: Never give up, and always give your best effort no matter what you're doing. It pays off in the end.
Words to leave by: "Life wasn't meant to be taken personally."

APM-generated Big Data Boom !
A survey of IT professionals in the US and UK reveals explosive growth in the volume and complexity of performance data being generated by application infrastructures. This deluge of data, sometimes referred to as 'APM-generated Big Data,' is becoming impossible to correlate and interpret with traditional monitoring tools. This increases the challenge for business owners and senior IT officials needing to assess overall health of critical applications and their impact on the business. read "APM-generated Big Data Boom !"

The Real-Time Management Cockpit - Helping Executives See How IT Performance Impacts the Business
By Graham Gillen Next to reliable service and maximum uptime, the greatest value an IT organization can provide an enterprise is real-time visibility into the current state of the business and the impact, if any, of IT on the business's key performance indicators (KPIs). At any moment of the day, a line of business manager, IT executive or other decision-maker needs the ability to answer questions such as "how are we doing right now," "are all our locations, channels and services performing as needed" and "if there's a problem, is it somewhere in IT." read "The Real-Time Management Cockpit - Helping Executives See How IT Performance Impacts the Business"

IT Operations Analytics and Splunk – Is all the gold found only in mining IT logs?
Much has been made about the IPO of Splunk and how Splunk was both smart and fortuitous in its implementation and positioning of a new way to essentially analyze log data for IT troubleshooting use cases.

The Challenge of Monitoring Complex Java Applications
As any IT administrator worth his salt knows, the challenge of application performance monitoring has increased exponentially. One of the biggest culprits is the inability to monitor and correlate complex Java application data. Monitoring the behavior of Java applications is a challenging at best. Correlating this data with other IT performance and business metric data is almost impossible because of the sheer amount of data and the existence of silos in the enterprise that inhibit data sharing. Today, conventional application performance monitoring approaches typically fall into two approaches: read "The Challenge of Monitoring Complex Java Applications"
