"The one who is coming after me is stronger than I am. I'm not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire."
Ministry of John the Baptist
3 In those days John the Baptist appeared in the desert of Judea announcing, 2 " Change your hearts and lives! Here comes the kingdom of heaven! " 3 He was the one of whom Isaiah the prophet spoke when he said:
4 John wore clothes made of camel's hair, with a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
5 People from Jerusalem, throughout Judea, and all around the Jordan River came to him. 6 As they confessed their sins, he baptized them in the Jordan River. 7 Many Pharisees and Sadducees came to be baptized by John. He said to them, " You children of snakes! Who warned you to escape from the angry judgment that is coming soon? 8 Produce fruit that shows you have changed your hearts and lives. 9 And don't even think about saying to yourselves, Abraham is our father. I tell you that God is able to raise up Abraham's children from these stones. 10 The ax is already at the root of the trees. Therefore, every tree that doesn't produce good fruit will be chopped down and tossed into the fire. 11 I baptize with water those of you who have changed your hearts and lives. The one who is coming after me is stronger than I am. I'm not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. 12 The shovel he uses to sift the wheat from the husks is in his hands. He will clean out his threshing area and bring the wheat into his barn. But he will burn the husks with a fire that can't be put out. "

I don't see an admission of guilt.
The principal idea in climbing is to climb safe: it is not to follow accepted industry practices in my opinion.
I would say one does not exclude the other, though industry standards are sometimes over safe in a recreational setting.
Maybe they read something on NEClimbs with their cell phone and decided to fling themselves off the top.

The ramp from I-75 north to I-475 north in Perrysburg is shut down because of a semi truck rollover.
Police say the truck rolled over on the ramp sometime before 5 p.m. Wednesday. At least one person was hurt in the accident, but there are no life threatening injuries.
The accident has closed traffic in the northbound lanes of I-75 to back up. Police say a large wrecker will have to be brought in to clear the accident, so the ramp could be closed for an extended period of time.

Cattle keepers choose electronic reporting in record numbers
7:20am Wednesday 18th July 2012 in Livestock
The trend towards choosing the Rural Payments Agency's electronic cattle tracing services over traditional paper reporting is gathering momentum with a record month in June 2012.
The percentage of cattle births, deaths and movements that were reported electronically - using the Rural Payments Agency's online service or automatic phone line, farm software packages or the email service – increased to more than 88% in June. This represents a leap of 13% on the same period last year.
More than 85% of births, nearly 93% of movements and nearly 74% of deaths were reported electronically in June. The movements and deaths figures represent the highest ever use of electronic services.
Farmers tell RPA they find the electronic services quicker and easier to use than sending in the forms by post. The online and phone services are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. RPA is driving the use of electronic communications and services, in line with the Government's 'digital by default' approach.

New Chancellor Inaugurated on UMass-Amherst's 150th Anniversary
The inauguration this past weekend of UMass Amherst of Chancellor Dr. Kumble Subbaswamy coincided with the University's 150th anniversary. On a visit to the Amherst campus last week, UMass President Robert Caret said the 150th anniversary is an important birthday with the right chancellor.
"It really is a sort of a launchpad for the future for a campus. So you have a campus that is 150 years old and looking at its next 150 years with a new leader to begin that new 150 year period."
Subbaswamy is the first chancellor of color since the late Randolph Bromery who served during the 1970's. With the evolving demography of the country, Caret says it's important for these changes to be reflected in the leadership of academic institutions.
"I work hard as does the campus and the system and the state, I think, at trying to open up those diversity corridors to provide more of that kind of leadership and to provide more of that kind of access for our students."
The Chancellor's resume includes serving as provost for the University of Kentucky, among other roles, for 18 years. He was also the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Miami and Indiana University in Bloomington.

Presented to: Janette Rallison
For: It's a Mall World After All
Janette Rallison�s recent novels about teenage life are by turns hilarious and insightful. In It�s a Mall World After All, Rallison�s heroine struggles to overcome her prejudices about her best friend�s boyfriend, who in the past had humiliated and tormented her. She jumps to conclusions when finding him in what looks like compromising situations, only to find that there are, in fact, perfectly reasonable explanations for them. As she searches for more evidence to back up her suspicions, she comes to know, and like, his best friend. Though the typical story would have her discover the irrationality of her prejudice and learn that the boyfriend was a really good guy all along�-after all, he has at least one really great friend�-the plot becomes something more as we find that her suspicions are correct after all. Rallison�s story becomes both a wonderful romance and a powerful illustration of friendship.

William Kelly Shot A Man In The Balls In Retaliation For Mistreating His Daughter
Navarre, FL (The Weekly Vice) - William Russel Kelly Junior, a 48-year-old Navarre man was jailed after he allegedly shot a man in the scrotum and thigh because he "beat his daughter".
According to the Santa Rosa County Sheriff's Office, a deputy was responding to a noise complaint around 1:00 a.m Monday when he heard people shouting and then saw a man and woman running towards him - shouting that they had been shot.
The woman, 18-year-old Amanda Kelly, stated that her father shot her boyfriend "because he hates him, dude". The victim, 29-year-old Randall Carter, was bleeding from the groin area. He was treated at a local hospital and released.
Kelly, who works on Elgin Air Base, was found by officers with a silver Taurus .45-caliber revolver he referred to as "The Judge". He admitted shooting the young man and stated to police that he "shot him in the nuts with bird-shot because he was beating my daughter".
Kelly was booked into the Santa Rosa County jail and charged with aggravated battery causing bodily harm or disability. He was released after posting $20,000 bond.

The way the "Judge" comment is phrased makes him seem nutty. That's the actual Taurus model, not some pet name he has for his revolver.

You are correct Anon. The "Judge" shoots 45 and 410 shotgun shells. Thus the birdshot ammo. It does actually say "The Judge" real big on the barrel. I can understand. If a 29 year old was boinking my 18 year old daughter, I would probably want to shoot him too.

Rapidly changing technology has the potential to directly impact student learning and reading engagement. DCPS piloted a program with Kindle eReaders in two middle schools. The goal of this program was to explore the impact of Kindle use on middle school students' motivation to read.
Pilot participants were from eighth-grade English inclusion classes at Hart Middle School and Read 180 classes at Deal Middle School. The information shared through this project explores the advantages and challenges of using Kindles in these education settings and gives potential users general information about integrating this technology into their instructional programs.
Since this pilot was limited to Kindles, we would like to offer several resources that might help you consider which device will most align to the needs of your school and students.

Irvine Child support payments are a court-ordered amount that the non-custodial parent should pay to the custodial parent to pay for a proportionate sum of the children's costs, such as housing and utilities, food, clothing, education expenses, and other costs. Both the parents have got a responsibility to support their children, both before and after the divorce. State laws and regulations differ greatly regarding just how the courts determine child support payment, and child support orders could be modified just by a different court order. One of our Irvine child support attorneys should be able to respond to just about any important child support payment questions, such as the tight adherence to child support guidelines.
Exactly how is child support determined?
Many states are different in their Child Support requirements. Each state has unique established minimum amounts of child support. Different state courts have established guidelines for awards of child support above the statutory minimums.
In determining a Child Support "guideline", it is actually established by calculating the minimum amount of Irvine child support to be given by a parent, the law directs the judge to first add up the entire net monthly incomes of both parents.
Next, the judge needs to compute the percentage of that income that is being earned by the non-custodial parent. This percentage is multiplied by the applicable level of welfare payments for the number of children in the household.
The end result of this computation will be the minimum child support. It should be understood that in the vast majority of cases, the court orders child support above the minimum level, as figured out by local support guidelines.
The vast majority of child support is paid under the Child Support Guideline. This guideline uses an elaborate mathematical formula. The truth is, computer programs should be used to determine child support under the guideline.
Just how long is Irvine child support supposed to be paid?
Child support must be paid up until the child becomes 18, unless the child has not yet managed to graduate through high school. When the child hasn't graduated high school the child support carries on until the child has finished high school or becomes 19, whatever occurs first.
Now, the law does not provide judges the power to make a parent to support a child above the age of 19, except in cases where the child is physically or mentally disabled.
Nevertheless, the parents can come to an agreement that child support is to carry on into the college years, and these kinds of an understanding can be enforced by the Family Law Court.
How is child support going to be paid?
Unless the custodial parent says otherwise, all child support shall be paid by a wage assignment. This means that the child support payments are to be taken off from the salary of the parent who is obligated to pay child support.
How is child support computed?
A few states have a state-wide formula (known as the guideline) for figuring out how much child support must be paid. In the event that the parents can't decide on child support, the judge is going to decide the child support sum based on the guideline calculation.
Items that might be important to your state's child support computation may include:
- Parents' incomes
- Parents' assets (property, investments and so on)
- Child's medical bills
- Daycare costs
- Time child spends with the non-custodial parent
- Children's ages
- Child support or alimony from a prior marriage
- Insurance costs
Child support Irvine might also involve the cost of special needs which includes:
- Traveling for visitation from one parent to another
- Educational costs
- Some other special needs
Can I have child support for the time before the child support order?
If you don't get public assistance, you could get child support right from the day you filed your case asking for child support. To get support from this date, you should serve the other parent within three months right after you file your case.
The judge can also grant child support starting from the date of the hearing, the date the other parent was served, or some other date depending on the specifics of the case.
Irvine Child Support Lawyers
Every parent has got a legal responsibility to provide for the good care of his or her child. Irvine Child support is a court-ordered financial payment from one or both parents to provide financial support to their children's living costs and healthcare costs. Child support payments can be a difficult matter and are often a cause of conflict over divorce cases.
Whether you are having difficulties obtaining child support payments from the other parent of your kid or you have been ordered to pay an unjust amount, the Irvine child support attorneys at our firm could actually help. Phone our offices today to talk to an attorney today.
Child Support Cases Irvine We Deal with
All of us fully grasp the difficulty of figuring out reasonable child support payments as well as getting those payments from the child's parent. We'll assist you with a variety of child support issues, including all those associated with:
- Changes to Support Agreements
- Enforcing Support Agreements
Figuring out a sensible child support agreement can be extremely hard. Even though a payment sum was established, some parents are unwilling to pay out what they have been required to pay out. If you're experiencing any problems associated to child support payments, you should have expert legal assistance. Our Irvine child support lawyers will fight to help you get the child support agreement you need.
By definition, Irvine Child Support is the responsibility to make payments for the financial care and support of the child during and after a separation or divorce. Usually, the non-custodial parent pays the custodial parent. A father might be required to pay the mother or perhaps the mother might be required to pay the father.
Irvine Child Support Enforcement
Just about all states run a child support enforcement program. Child support could be taken out of a parent's paycheck. Any late child support may be collected from:
- Federal and state income tax refunds
- Liens put on property
- Selling property
Modifying Irvine Child Support Orders
In many states, child support is recalculated on a regular basis. On these states, courts require parents to exchange tax return information to determine if child support should be raised. In all states, either parent can file a court motion to recalculate child support at any time.
If you pay support, you may want to ask the court to recalculate it if:
- Your income decreases considerably or you lose your work
- The other parent's income improves
- Living expenses change in either household
If you are the parent getting child support, you may want request for recalculation if:
- The paying parent's income increases or you discover not all income had been revealed
- It has been years since the previous recalculation and your child's costs have got increased
When Do Child Support Payments Stop?
Child support obligations generally end when a child reaches the age of majority, which differs by state. A court can order child support for an extended time period, such as till the child graduates from college.
Questions to ask Your Attorney
- If I lose my job, can I stop making child support payments?
- Are child support payments required if custody is shared?
- How frequently can child support payments be changed?

Highlights From "Infinity of Nations"
A new exhibition explores thousands of years of artwork from the Native nations of North, Central and South America
- By Jess Righthand
- Smithsonian.com, January 04, 2011
(Walter Larrimore, National Museum of the American Indian)
Susette La Flesche was born into the Omaha tribe of Nebraska and attended school on the East Coast before returning home to teach in her community. In 1877, La Flesche saw the neighboring Ponca tribe expelled from their land, a calamity that killed up to one-third of all tribal members. Taking matters into her own hands, La Flesche became an advocate for Native peoples. She married Thomas Tibbles, a white reporter for the Omaha Herald in 1881. Together, the couple helped publicize the case of Standing Bear v. Crook, which resulted in a landmark civil rights ruling that recognized American Indians as persons under the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution.
"She was a precursor to today's Native people, who find themselves living in two worlds," says Blue Spruce. "Through her Western education, she was able to advocate for her own people in a non-Native world."

I saw many such exhibits at the Field Museum in Chicago and they are really nice. It's too bad these are in New York and I saw nothing like them at the Smithsonian. The Native American exhibits were quite disappointing.

News from your Planetarium
Hello everyone! We'll have a waxing crescent Moon in our early evening skies this week but its light shouldn't keep you from finding something glorious in the eastern sky although the pesky clouds of rainy season could be a problem.
There are other clouds in our summer sky besides those rain clouds. To find them, just motor to your favorite dark spot on the island and face east at about 8:00 p.m. If there aren't too many rain clouds in that direction, you'll see a band of clouds that doesn't appear to move. Those clouds are far beyond the reach of earthly wind. They are the uncountable stars of our galactic home, the Milky Way. If you're facing east, to your right you'll see a giant fish hook in the sky. That's the tail of Scorpius the Scorpion. The center of our galaxy is between the hook in the Scorpion's tail and the spout of the teapot in Sagittarius.
Though you feel absolutely stationary as you lie in your lounge chair contemplating the galactic wonders, you are actually traveling in several different directions at once at incredible speed. If you contemplate the starry wonders for more than a few minutes, you'll notice something interesting. If you find a star near the eastern horizon and look at it later, you'll see that it's higher in the sky. The star isn't moving; you are, at 1006 mph as the Earth spins.
Next, look at your watch and note the exact time. Find the Scorpion's tail in the southeastern sky and notice where it is in relation to the horizon or a coconut tree or some other landmark. Then next week, go back to the same spot at the same time and look for the Scorpion's tail. It won't be in the same place because your sky view has shifted. Earth, the giant spaceship we all ride, has traveled a significant distance in its orbit. As you sit there in your lounge chair, you are also travelling at 66,000 mph as the Earth goes around the Sun. Spaceship Earth travels significantly faster than most of the spaceships we've launched into space. As you absorb that incredible speed, you should also realize that you're riding a much larger merry-go-round than Earth's orbit around the Sun.
Our galaxy is huge; so big that it's hard to grasp the size. Like all spiral galaxies, the Milky Way is a flatted disc of stars. It's about 100 light years thick out here in the galactic suburbs and it's about 100,000 light years across. It has the same proportions as a CD with a slightly bulging center. The Sun is located about halfway out on one of the spiral arms and the galactic center, there off the Scorpion's tail, is about 25,000 light years away.
The Earth orbits the Sun because it has to; if it didn't endlessly fall around the Sun, the Sun's gravity would pull it in. The same is true of the Sun. Our Sun and all the other stars in the galaxy endlessly fall around the galactic center. The closer you are to a gravity mass, the faster you must go. Mercury orbits the Sun at over 100,000 mph and stars close to the galactic center must whirl around it at incredible speed. But hey, we're way out here in the suburbs so how fast can the Sun go? The Sun orbits the galactic center at almost 500,000 mph. And we're being dragged along for the ride. Have a great trip!
And speaking of great trips, I'm in Baton Rouge, Louisiana for the 21st meeting of the International Planetarium Society so the UOG Planetarium will be closed until 6 August. I hope to see all of you at a Planetarium show soon!

HOw did it feelt when you actually succeed with: No Pads No Helmets Just Balls? :3
Did you knew it was going to be a hit or you have doubts about it a first? *.*
what's the funniest thing that you've ever done while touring? *.*
Did you guys knew that we feel identified with all and i mean ALL of your songs?
What's your favourite thing about being famous?
Why Pierre's spending no time in twitter anymore? u.u
When are you gonna come to Uruguay? *-*
Oh , and , Pierre , where did you get those awesmazing sneakers in the Jet Lag video ? oh , and I LOVE YOU !!! Yea , im the crazy fan girl xD Seriously , I thought that , when I bought Get Your Heart On , my obsession would literally disappear , but no , instead my obsession went higher , yea like you guys couldn't get any hotter . xD Yea , Jst wanted to ask where did you get those awesmazing sneakers in the Jet lag video , I really , really really want them ! :3

text: "On behalf of Trinity Lutheran Church, we wish to express our appreciation for the excellent job well done recently on re-roofing our church. We have received many compliments on the appearance of the roof. During the bidding process, you were very helpful in making suggestions for improvement over our existing roof system. These include using PVC Membrane roof system on flat roofs, sloping flat roof for better drainage and installing cap flashing at all perimeter concrete caps. During the installation process, you were very cooperative working around our church's needs such as funeral services". It was a pleasure working with you. John Johnson & Don Miller Trinity Lutheran Church Property Maintenance Co-Chairs October 16, 2008 "Thank you for replacing our roof. You and your crew are very professional in your work I will not hesitate recommending you for roofing." Thanks Again, Angelo Merlino 206.851.8660 We want to thank you for your important role in this great project. The sub-contractor team was integral to our success. Without the attention to details, ability to work within a tight schedule and our tough winter of 1999, the building would not have been successful without all your help. Each and every sub-contractor made the effort to produce a quality project. We are proud of the First & republican Building and sincerely appreciate the commitment to a quality product. We hope to continue to work with all of you that made a special effort to deliver a building we can all be proud of. Sincerely, W.G. Clark Construction Co. Mark Glass Project Manager The owners and I are very happy with the roof, I look forward to working with you in the future. Thank you, Andrew Van Leeuwen Build Project Management, LLC Seattle, WA We really can't tell you how much we appreciate the service you have provided to us, both on the new addition and on our house and other buildings on which you previously installed metal roofs. We most especially appreciate the professional manner in which your personnel accomplished the work and their collective attitude toward the job, us, our property, and the project. The roof is lovely. Thank you If you wish to do so, please feel free to use us as a reference for future jobs. We definitely are "satisfied customers". Please convey our thanks to everyone who was involved in planning and scheduling as well as in the installation. Sincerely, Paul & Betty Alexander Being a teacher I am on vacation in the summer and my husband is not. For this reason I wanted to handle the arrangements. My standards for quality workmanship are high, as are my expectations of courteous service. I could not have been more pleased in both areas. I received friendly, courteous and personalized treatment from everyone I had contact with throughout the whole job. Any concern I shared with Brian was quickly corrected to my satisfaction. Thank you for treating me the old fashion way with quality workmanship and friendly courteous interaction. Sincerely, Diana Miller |

A Cote
Online Reservations
Everything we ordered--from first courses through dessert--was excellently prepared and delicious. Their wine list has some very unusual and interesting choices. Loved both that we chose. Service was very good. At one point the music was turned up louder and we realized we were shouting at each other across the table. We spoke to the server about it and she asked them to turn it down. The bar scene looked very lively as we left around 11. My only complaint is that it is SO dark in there. It was somewhat of a problem when reading the menu, but it bothered me more that I couldn't really see the food very well. Others who'd been there agreed about that when we compared notes later. However, the dark won't keep me from returning.
We have dined at this restaurant many, many times and are never disappointed in our dining experience. Always a winner.
While not necessarily "kid friendly" overall (the front room is more intimate and seems well suited for small groups or couples), the back patio was spacious, welcoming, and a good setting for a low-key (quiet) family meal.
Fresh ingredients. Relatively simple food prepared well. Understandable why it's been around a long time. Since moving from SF to Oakland nearly 2 years ago, I'm consistently pleased with how great the food is in the 510.
Only problem I had was where they sat me, every time the door opened I got blinded. Late afternoon. Not much they could do about it. Not a complaint. Food is always good. Love t he variety. And the service is always excellent. Highly recommend.
Our group chose an early dinner slot of 5:30 pm and were glad we did as the restaurant filled up very quickly. We preferred an outdoor table in the back patio as it felt more intimate and less noisy. The waitperson was very attentive and had great recommendations when it came to alcoholic beverages. The wine list is rather extensive for such a small restaurant and the mixed drinks were quite tasty (a good balance of flavors and alcohol). The food was quite tasty, particularly the salad, fried squash blossoms, and thin crust pizza. Have to say the dessert was the crowning glory -- a caramel brownie with chocolate ice cream and caramel whipped cream.
Service was friendly without being overly solicitous. Answers to menu questions were knowledgeable and thorough. We asked the waiter to order for us and the dishes he brought out were fantastic. .
I have dined numerous times at A Cote & the restaurant kills it every time - PLEASE don't forget to make reservation - the place fills up quickly btwn 5:30-7:30p EVERY NIGHT (it's also fun to eat at the bar - great barenders & great martinis)
Their small plate menu has become a favorite for my wife and I. The fresh and local ingredients make a huge impression. The food is always excellent, fun to share with others, and complimented by the good selection of wine. The restaurant has a front and back section, both can be quite loud, though the back is quieter later in the evening or when the weather is warm and they open up the awning.
I haven't come across a restaurant in the last 2 years where the service, ambience and food quality are this good. Match that with prices that are fair and you have a true gem. My wife and I were here for our anniversary and had a wonderful evening. There was a large group next to us that appeared to be having a wonderful evening, and while they were not quiet, their voices did not interfere at all with our dinner. Oh - and the food . . . .I only go to a 5 when it is something truly over the top. If I could give it a 4.5 I would.
We had a lovely table in the back for four. The atmosphere was lively but relaxing. Portions are generous and you can spend a lot or a little depending on what kind of dinner you want. Highly recommend the flat breads and the fava bean/corn side. Only complaint was no A/C - a little stuffy inside!
The food is excellent and abundant. Much larger servings than tapas. The wine list is a bit intimidating; I had never heard of ANYTHING on the menu; not the vineyards or the types of grapes! But, the server knew everything inside out and made an excellent rec based on my described preferences! All in all, great meal for two including three aps, one main (we ordered too much!), wine and desert for 110 bucks! A deal and a half! :)
My SO and had an opening-time reservation. We were seated promptly. The service was relaxed yet efficient - we never felt rushed. The food was wonderful - especially the cheese platter. I would highly recommend sitting outside, if possible. It seemed like the inside was a little too noisy.
One of our favorite spots in the East Bay. Especially good with family, friends or as a romantic setting. The a la carte menu lends itself to sharing
I love A Cote, especially when I lived in the neighborhood. I've held small dinner parties (8-10) to celebrate birthdays and graduations there, met friends or my fiancee for intimate dinners, and gone in alone to sit at the bar and eat moules and frites. The wine selection is terrific, the food wonderful, the bartenders friendly, and the atmosphere is lively. I had a great dinner but didn't realize that the restaurant closed at 10. There were several tables with diners (one with 8!) still eating when the manager must have decided he wanted to get rid of us. He jacked the sound up to mosh pit decibels and changed the music to something less sit-down friendly without saying a word to us about closing. It was unprofessional and rude.
One of our favorite standbys, both for visitors and friends to Oakland. Excellent green gazpacho this time, and the usual fabulous french fries. Haven't had a bad dish in twenty visits.
A Cote was a pleasure as always. Our waitress was extremely helpful with wine recommendations and was very attentive. The food was wonderful as usual and we enjoyed the ambiance of being seated outside. A great dining experience all around!
Went here for my birthday dinner for a group of 4, and it really exceeding my expectations - food and service were both exceptional. Ambience was nice without being pretentious. Would definitely recommend!
It's the second I've been to A Cote. The food is the main reason I go because It has a variety of French, Spanish and Italian all in one place. The wine list Includes wine from several parts of the world Hungary, Switzerland, Germany,Etc. the list goes on and on and compliments the food nicely. I love that you can enjoy an amazing meal, the ambiance and still have a pleasant conversation with your companion. There was a lot of thought put in interior space and overall it is an amazing experience.
A Cote was delightful. The food was delicious! And we had it all - cocktails, small plates, large plates, dessert, coffee. Everything was perfect. The restaurant was crowded, but we could hear one another. The wait staff was warm and friendly. It was a great eveing. It is also a great place to meet for drinks - nice cocktail, beer and wine list.
A Cote was one of the original small plates restaurants. And it is still going strong! Every item delicious...fun vibe...friendly wait staff...amazing wine list from all over the world...and cozy interior. Feels like you're in Paris somewhere! A true gem in Rockridge...have been coming since 90's since kids at Cal...never fails to impress!
We loved the experience, and ambience of A Cote. A great place for our anniversary dinner. It made our 17th anniversary as special as our 1st. David & Meredith
Took my gf there Sunday night, our first time there. Excellent food, service, atmosphere, and not overly expensive for what you get. Waiter was very informed about their wine selection, too. Would go there again for a special occasion.
Except for the dessert order glitch it was all great. They only charged for one not two desserts which is the classy thing to do and guarantees our return
I haven't been in a few years and I don't understand why---this is a real neighborhood gem---delicious small/large plates--great for sharing
I was taken to A Cote for a birthday dinner. The staff was attentive from the moment we stepped in the door. My friend had given me a lovely bottle of wine so we had brought it along. We were sat almost immediately , the place was packed but our table was reserved. The menu had lots of variety right from the appetizers. Our waitress was attentive without being obtrusive. The duck bolognese was amazing. I enjoy the small portion sharing for two. Makes the dinner fun and special. Hadn't been there in a while...would definitely go back. Instead of the over the top birthday song, etc. just a nice candle on the dessert dish..very classy.
The food was spectacular, hangar steak and flat-bread were delicious but our waiter was not friendly and one of the group thought she was rude. Luckily, the food and drinks overcame her attitude but it was my birthday and it would have been nice to have better service. When my pot d' crème dessert was brought out with a candle it was just set down with a "Here you go". As we were walking out another table was brought a birthday dish too but they received a happy birthday and some clapping from the staff. It was disappointing.
Hands done, one of the best dining experiences anyone could have. I must admit the lighting is a bit dim and the noise level is similar to that of a dying rhino; but all in all the food was amazing. I still can't get over those raspberry fritters....UGH! They are to die for.
We sat in the courtyard in the back, which is very nice and quiet. So when the weather is nice, ask to sit out there. We ordered the mussels in pernod sauce, which are seriously the best mussels I ever ate- they were plump and meaty and the sauce is amazing- order more bread for dipping in the sauce. We ordered the pots de creme for dessert- it was tasty and large- could be shared with 4 people easily.
My husband and I just decided to pick a restaurant via Open Table on a whim. A Cote was a great choice. It was a lot of fun. Small plate dining was ne to us an our waiter Rick took good care of us. He showed us how to order and whisked dishes to our table as he saw we were ready. Fabulous wine list too. This was a Sunday evening - at about 6:30 pm - so the dining crowd was probably light. We found the restaurant quiet, although the tables were mostly full, and intimate with reduced lighting.Just a perfect evening. We left the restaurant about 7:30 pm completely satisfied and were comfortable walking College Avenue.There were groups of casual walkers out and diners going in and out of the several restuarants along the street.We will be back.
Always a great dining experience. Each dish well executed, perfectly portioned for sharing with two, and nicely presented. The mussel are a must. Let the server help you with wine selections. They have some lovely treasures with an unusual menu. You will likely benefit by exploring the choice with some guidance!
We really enjoyed the food and they have an amazing wine list which includes selections from all over the world. The service was spot on and they allowed us to linger until long after they had closed, very classy. The only complaint is that on the extended patio it was either too hot or too cold. The main patio is a better bet. It's a bit noisy if you eat inside the restaurant.
The food was very tasty, the French wine from the Loire Valley was one of the best I ever had, and the wait staff was very friendly and helpful. The desserts put us in ecstasy! I love the fact that it is a neighborhood gem in Oakland!
Although the menu is limited, everything we tried was very good. The wine list is Euro-centric, so do not expect many California wines.
Charming, romantic spot - love that it serves late. The food was delicious, especially the clams, and meatballs. Great cocktails, the vodka gimlet yummy! Nice also that they have several flights of wine, so can get a taste of 5 wines and expand your palette and exposure to new wines easily. Had a window seat, which I requested through Open Table, and it was ready and waiting for us when we arrived. Would definitely come back.
Our meal was outstanding in every way, including the service, with the exception of the mussels. We told our waiter they were OKAY, mediocre at best, and as he recommended them, he took them off our bill without us asking. Given this positive transaction, we will be back again and again, even ordering the mussels, as they might have improved!
There's a reason I come here over and over: the food and drink never fail to delight. With the exception of a few items (mussels and fries to die for) the menu is always changing and there are always new gems to marvel at. This time I thought there was nothing very exciting - then we ordered two of the best veg dishes I have ever eaten. The wine and beer lists are enormous and the servers very knowledgeable and helpful as can be. Just don't expect quiet; even the beautiful covered outside space, which used to be quieter, can be very noisy.
Recently ate at A Cote for the first time. The entire evening was delightful. Excellent service, delicious food and a lively atmosphere. We ate in the back, which is fairly quiet. Highly recommend!
Great cocktails and beautiful ambience. Defintely be back.
A Cote is one of my most frequented restaurants. The food can always be counted on to be a combination of flavors that surprise and delight. The wait staff are all well trained, so they're knowledgeable about the menu and the wine list. Since the food is served family style, the opportunity to experience more of their delicious offerings without necessarily over-eating makes the evening more fun, enjoyable, and tasty. I'd highly recommend A Cote.
Go when it's dark. Lovely romantic atmosphere, candles, etc. Great wines and signature drinks. Food is good but not great, but who cares?
have been here many times in the past. this year, came in group of 5 for my b-day dinner. all the food was great, the pacing of which dishes came when was excellent, and the dessert -- which i've never had room to try before at A Cote -- blew us away (it was the chocolatey chocolate thingy with toffee bits?). service was pretty good although our server was not warm, not that friendly. still, he didn't make any mistakes with our order.
A Cote is hands down one of the best restaurants in the Bay Area and our favorite local Rockridge spot. We usually sit at the bar, but made a reservation for a table on a busy Saturday night. We were squeezed in on the back patio, right by the service door. Even with the heat lamps, it was chilly and we wore our jackets for the meal- less than ideal conditions to enjoy such excellent food and drink. When you go, and you should, get some seats at the bar, or request to be in the main front room.
We recently met up for our book group with 5 ladies! We had ordered wine & lots of mussels- a great combination! We ordered additional sides & loved them all, especially the whipped fennel! The desserts were to die for! Absolutely delish! Great server too! THANKS!!!
My husband and I love going to A Cote on our date nights. Love the food, cheese plate, wine and cocktails, service, and atmosphere. Looking forward to our next visit!
Good food, great ambiance, attentive, but not rushed, service.
Finding a restaurant open past 10pm was somewhat of a challenge, but A Cote was great! Open until Midnight made for an enjoyable, relaxed dinner. The drink menu was extensive, with some unusual finds, they even have a good range of non-alcoholic beverages for those who do not imbibe. We went with the olives and pom frites to start and the kombucha gnocchi. It was all quite delicious. I would definitely recommend heading over there for a nice dinner.
Just the right amount of food to share. Mussels are the best. Advice on wine was excellent. Can't wait to go back
Good food, good service and very dependable. Eclectic menu that offers large and small plates with an assortment of wine selections that are nice and unusual.
This is a great place to meet friends for a relaxed dinner. We arrived an hour prior to our reservation expecting to sit at the bar and wait for our "turn", but instead were seated immediately. Wait staff never rushed us and were helpful in making choices. Food was very good; we especially enjoyed the small plate menu format and ability to try a number of things.
