Last night I was heading to the A&I/Julia Dean book workshop that is part of MOPLA when the universe intervened and I found myself heading downtown.
What was downtown? Why the Werewolves and Silver Bullets event of course. And I am thanking the universe because Griffin Matthews and Matt Gould of WITNESS UGANDA performed part of their musical and they were amazing. Check out a short clip here:

I realize this is a long message, but for those who hold out hope for real change, this will be well worth your reading, and sharing.

This is one of my favorite Mexican places to eat. Excellent food and atmosphere, and very friendly staff.
This is one of my favorite Mexican places to eat. Excellent food and atmosphere, and very friendly staff.
My wife and I love the happy hours and margarita's here as well as the complimentary chips and salsa. Our main dishes were great as well. My wife got the loaded nacho's and I got a chimichanga. Great service, good prices, good location.
U don't have to order an entree like everyone does u can order appetizers which are 3-7pm and they taste amazing and are very affordable and great proportions for the family and we were hungry like vultures lol people put this place down and say its a step ul from taco bell but they don't know what their talking about!... More
I have been to this restaurant three times. We sat outside today. There are eight tables. They allow smoking, so there is a slight scent of smoke in the air. We did not have to wait at all. The wait staff was very friendly. I ordered the brisket taco. It had shaved crispy onions on top. It had a good... More
I hope his review would help someone to decide to choose this place. I am a frequent customer of the Mexican joint. its clean, the wait staff is very good, and the food is very good as well. on the weekend prepare to wait for at least 30 to 45 minutes as this place is jam packed on the weekends.... More
Again, I hate chain restaurants & this is a perfect example of why. This is supposed to be a Mexican restaurant. There is not a trace of authentic Mexican cooking to be found! I've tried this place twice & both times was extremely disappointed. The food was not Mexican food, it was a poor American version! I will never step... More
I'm not expecting an authentic Mexican experience when I go to On the Border. I expect decent enchiladas, tacos and salsa, and that is pretty much what you get. Fresh chips and salsa (chunky tomatoes with chopped onion) with a bit of a kick, but overall decent. Chips occasionally come out a little soggy so it does seem they are... More
The food is good depending on what you order. They don't seem to have hot sauce at the table, but I asked the waiter and he brought me a bottle of hot sauce. Not as "Mexican" as I would like but worth the trip now and then.
This is has been a routine favorite for me and my colleagues - we frequent OTB because of their reliable tasting food and friendly, accommodating service. About twice a year, they host lunch gathering (10-25 people) and once a year they cater lunch service at our work location. We have built a good relationship together and we are comfortable continuing... More
OK; it's a chain restaurant at a mall serving Mexican food; we're not likely going to see Selma Hayak dining here. However... Our server was friendly and attentive, our drinks came quickly, and the guacamole 'live' was excellent! The food is good and priced appropriatelyand we enjoyed our meal. Would we return? Absolutamente!!

USCG-Approved Commercial-Quality Life Raft
Revere's ShoreMaster Inflatable Buoyant Apparatus (IBA) offers double buoyancy chambers manufactured from a specially formulated polyurethane (PU) proofed nylon fabric.

When packed, the valise design and shape make it easy to launch the raft overboard. A space saving low profile fiberglass container is available for all ShoreMaster life rafts.

It's not long to go until the Third Annual Chardonnay day on 24 May, 2012. It's the perfect excuse to be exploring the range of great Chardonnay styles being made across the world, and particularly across Australia and New Zealand.
According to Winemakers' Federation of Australia (via Aust and NZ Wine Industry Directory), Chardonnay was the leading grape varietal crushed in 2011 – accounting for over 48% of total white wines crushed in Australia. There's endless quotes and commentary on the quality and stylistic changes that have taken place by Chardonnay producers on a global scale (no longer about big oaked Chardonnays), and days like #chardDay are a perfect opportunity to discover the vast amount of styles being made. It's no longer the days of "Anything But Chardonnay", but as Sally Scarborough quoted to me last week, more along the lines of "Always Buy Chardonnay."
Peter Bourne (The Wine Man), David Bicknell (Oakridge Wines) and Andrew Spinaze (Tyrrells Wines) give you an insight into the evolution of Australian Charonnay at last years #chardDay event at Coast Restaurant in Sydney (yes it was a huge event and there's some background noise).
So what exactly is Chardonnay Day?
This is a global day to talk about Chardonnay via social media platforms. There's no concurrent tasting, conversations will take place in the time zone of country participating. Anyone can get involved. Simply post up comments on twitter, facebook, youtube , foursquare or other social media platforms. You simply need to use the #chardDay in your posts/ tweets and follow the conversations taking place on the day.
In 2011, Chardonnay day tweets reached millions of people across the world, with Australians getting involved at venues across the country as you'll see from some of these photos https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150619858750512.692663.196942140511&type=3
If you're new to Virtual Wine Tastings, here's an older blog post on how to participate
Love Chardonnay and want to get involved?
Here's a few tips for Wineries to maximize your participation

This is also a great opportunity for you to generate some incremental sales and generate some further understanding of different styles of chardonnay being produced. Why not consider:

- With Mayo Clinic medical oncologist
Timothy J. Moynihan, M.D.
read biographyclose windowBiography of
Timothy J. Moynihan, M.D.
Timothy Moynihan, M.D.
"As a practicing medical oncologist, I meet with patients and families every day to help manage their course through this disease called cancer. This experience provides unique insight into the needs of cancer patients, their families and loved ones and brings into sharp focus the need for reliable information to be readily available in terms that can be easily understood." — Dr. Timothy Moynihan
Dr. Timothy Moynihan believes that providing consumers with accurate, timely information on the broad, complex topic of cancer is the biggest challenge facing medical websites. As the guiding force behind our cancer content, he makes sure Mayo Clinic meets the test.
Dr. Moynihan, born in Las Vegas, N.M., and raised in Denver, is a consultant in medical oncology at Mayo Clinic and an associate professor at Mayo Clinic College of Medicine, Rochester, Minn. He's board certified in internal medicine, medical oncology, and hospice and palliative care medicine.
He did his medical oncology training at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, and then went on to the University of Minnesota and St. Paul Regions Medical Center for seven years before moving to Mayo Clinic in 1999. Dr. Moynihan is medical director of the Mayo Clinic hospice.
Dr. Moynihan serves as the education chair for the Department of Oncology and the fellowship program director. Four times he has been selected as Teacher of the Year in medical oncology and elected to the Teacher of the Year Hall of Fame.
Past honors include distinguished clinical teacher at the University of Minnesota Medical School, best internist at the Medical College of Wisconsin and recipient of the Upjohn Achievement Award for Excellence in Medicine. Dr. Moynihan serves on several national committees for the American Society of Clinical Oncology.
"The Internet provides a ready source of information on a wide range of topics of interest to those affected by cancer," Dr. Moynihan says. "The difficulty is trying to decide which sites provide reputable information and which information is relevant to each individual patient. The long history and tradition of excellence associated with Mayo Clinic assures you that information provided will be reliable, up-to-date and comprehensive."

- Cellphones and cancer: What's the risk?
Tests and diagnosis (3)
- Tumor vs. cyst: What's the difference?
- Atypical cells: Are they cancer?

Treatments and drugs (6)
- Chemotherapy and sex: Is sexual activity OK during treatment?
- What is compassionate use of experimental drugs?
- Magic mouthwash: Effective for chemotherapy mouth sores?
- see all in Treatments and drugs
Alternative medicine (2)
- Curcumin: Can it slow cancer growth?
- High-dose vitamin C: Can it kill cancer cells?
Atypical cells: Are they cancer?
Do atypical cells usually mean cancer?
from Timothy J. Moynihan, M.D.
Atypical cells are cells that appear abnormal under a microscope, but they aren't necessarily cancerous. The presence of atypical cells is sometimes referred to as "dysplasia." Many factors can make normal cells appear atypical, including inflammation and infection. Even normal aging can make cells appear abnormal.
Atypical cells can change back to normal cells if the underlying cause is removed or resolved. This can happen spontaneously. Or it can be the result of a specific treatment.
Atypical cells don't necessarily mean you have cancer. However, it's still important to make sure there's no cancer present or that a cancer isn't just starting to develop.
If your doctor identifies atypical cells, close follow-up is essential. In some cases, your doctor may simply monitor the atypical cells to make sure they don't become more abnormal. Other tests or scans may be useful, depending on your specific circumstances. In other cases, your doctor may recommend a particular treatment to try to reverse the process that's causing the atypical cells. And sometimes, your doctor may need to obtain a sample of tissue — such as a biopsy — to make sure you don't have cancer or another serious condition.

My latest Sapphire, for Computing for Sustainable Water: Gonna take me a whole lot longer to earn these in future.
I now have a bronze in Computing for Sustainable Water and a Bloody Mary in Computing for Clean Water:
Yesterday, we were right there, shoulder to shoulder with emerald badges. We were brothers man. What happened? Not 24 hours go by and you leave me in the dirt? I'm . . . I'm . . . just, devastated. :shadedshu
Hello y'all. Been lurking here without posting/registering for an eternity As XS is down thought it'd be a good time to introduce myself. Feel kinda homeless... By ikeke at 2012-05-05
Thats alot of badges you got there. Thats a sweet first post. Welcome to the WCG family. We're here for each other. Great job on crunchin.
You guys look like the same kind/same ballpark of nutjobs edit: added full scrnshot as you guys seem to do. My main motivator for crunching is my dad/uncle/both grandfathers being taken by cancer.
your lucky though. My initiation I had to pickup a cherry with my butt cheeks, carry it across the room and drop it into a beer lol.

It's 6 o'clock on a Tuesday evening at Kezar Stadium in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. I'm talking with Neil about the reasons behind a recent race disappointment and with Dave about his spring marathon mileage buildup. Newcomers Joe and Monica wait to discuss pace for their upcoming intervals; meanwhile, around 10 more experienced runners warm up together, rehashing the past weekend, debating the relative merits of various post-workout watering holes, or planning the next West Valley Track Club beer mile.
All of these athletes have joined the club for one basic reason: to improve. And, although each may see a different aspect of the experience as most important, all have found something in the mixture of group training, weekly workout schedules, and socializing that has enriched their running experiences.
I did all my best running, modest as it might have been, solo. I became intimately familiar with the pitfalls that can result from training without a coach or experienced training partners, even as I read every available book on the theory and practice of training and worked toward a Ph. D. in exercise physiology. Now, after discovering how much the camaraderie of team training and team competition can enhance someone's enjoyment of the sport and improve their performance, I understand well the pull that brings this group to the track each week, and I try to ensure that their experience with the club benefits their running.
To figure out whether joining a club and/or working with a coach can help your running, you need to figure out what your needs are, and understand what a club or coach can bring you. For most runners, finding a club may be a better first option than searching for a coach. Most clubs do offer coaching, and a good, diverse club composed of experienced runners can take over much of what a coach offers. As pointed out by Bill Clark, a former world-class distance runner who coaches the South Bay wing of WVTC, much of the coaching and guidance available to club runners comes from teammates on group runs.
Finding a Club
You probably don't have a ton of options for local clubs. We are blessed in Northern California to have a range of running clubs to accommodate everyone from the many novices taking up the activity every day, to the surprisingly large number of national-class athletes who live here. Naturally, the clubs that these different groups gravitate toward are very different. The key, then, is finding the club that meets your needs, which range from motivation, to support, to instruction.
The most important criterion to consider is whether the club has other runners matched to your skill level who are available for you to train with. Rather than focusing on assembling the most competitive teams for our race schedule, I emphasize developing a high-energy environment that feeds our runners sufficient motivation to carry them through their solo workouts. Typically, this involves generating a critical mass of enthusiastic bodies to ensure that all our runners have compatriots of similar abilities to run with.
Remember, though, that this weekly speed workout with your teammates may be the least important session you do all week. While very beneficial, these sessions, when surrounded by teammates and supported by post-workout social events, are the easiest to commit to. If motivation when training alone is your problem, make sure your club provides additional opportunities for group running, or sufficient energy that carries into solo workouts. Investing in the competitive goals of the team is one way to get that enthusiasm, but finding a mix of people you just like hanging out with can do the same.
Investigate whether the club offers coaching, and whether it is personalized or geared around the team's racing plan. If the coaching is not going to suit your needs, you can find an outside coach who will be a better fit, and you should still be able to do many of your workouts with your teammates, if the club is truly supportive of your development.

At 5-Tool Sports Training Center's 7,000 square-foot, air-conditioned facility, David Collings—a former scholarship player at Andrew College and the University of West Georgia—leads a team of specialized instructors whose collective experience includes minor-league play and collegiate-level coaching. Together the team shapes young baseball players with results-oriented clinics, including a pitching program designed after those used by major-league franchises and the Chinese national team. Other sessions range from summer camps that cover all aspects of the game to position-specific clinics, such as introductory and advanced catching with Mike Day––a four-time College World Series catcher who went on to play with the Montreal Expos.
To keep their skill set sharp, athletes can schedule time in one of four 55-foot hitting cages, two of which boast Iron Mike pitching machines or two dedicated pitching lanes. Private instruction gives kids individualized feedback, and a video-analysis room allows them to see the errors in their swing or the understated chicness of swapping out a cap for a beret.
Founded in 2013, the Bikini Basketball Association is comprised of five female teams in Chicago, Houston, Las Vegas, Miami, and Philadelphia. Though the association's name suggests that players hit the court wearing swimwear, they actually play in tight-fitting spandex athletic gear that does not billow in the wind like traditional jerseys, threatening to fill with air and lift players off the court and out of the gymnasium.
Atlanta Rocks' expansive vertical playground is home to hundreds of climbs, 50 top-rope stations, and more than 12,000 square feet of professionally set routes atop a safe climbing surface. All passionate climbers themselves, the staff has created interesting and intricate problems to solve for climbers of all skill levels. Climbers looking to enhance their know how can participate in one of the gym's many programs, and the staff also drops knowledge on beginners with introductory climbing courses that include all required gear and cover subjects ranging from advanced lead climbing to the fundamentals of massaging knots out of tense rope.
Since its inception as a small park in 1990, Dixieland Amusement Park has grown to include more than 20 rides and attractions for kids and parents alike. From high-flying cable coasters to speedy go-karts, the park's attractions foster adrenaline-fueled joy, while the Digital Armory, a bustling arcade, transports visitors to a virtual world with motion sensors and laser tag. Dining areas pepper the park's walkways for between-ride snacks, and, come nightfall, fireworks fill the sky to entertain visitors and idling pigeons.
When he isn't exploring underwater or volunteering at the Georgia Aquarium, Jacob Moore, founder and owner of Living Water Conservation and Scuba Inc. and The Order of Atlantis, shares his scuba knowledge with students during classes. A NAUI-certified scuba instructor, Jacob leads courses that range from skin-diver and scuba certification to advanced scuba-diving and instructor courses. He also leads expeditions during which students and instructors alike can use their skills to explore reefs, caves, and wildlife at destinations such as Ginnie Springs, Panama City, and Ponce de Leon, Florida.
Founded in 1995 with one location at Chattahoochee Plantation, Universal Tennis Academy has since grown to include seven other locations located throughout the Atlanta area. At the Joseph D. McGhee Tennis Center and Washington Park Tennis Center, tennis pros help developing players hone their skills with focused drills, match play, and challenge ladders, focusing on attitude and work ethic as well as technique. Eight of McGhee's nine hard courts and all eight of Washington Park's courts stay lit in the evening, allowing competitors to play their unresolved matches in the dark without lighting the ball on fire.
On the morning of September 11, 2001, Robert Herzog dropped off his laundry, picked up his mail, and took the local C train to work instead of the express A train. When he arrived for work at the north World Trade Center tower that morning, nearly 300 of his coworkers were dead. Stunned by his inexplicable escape from death, Herzog battled through his trauma by focusing on the good things in his life. Earlier that year, he met his wife-to-be playing coed softball. He had enjoyed the league but felt he could do better. Tempered by the sense of charity and community that was so ubiquitous after September 11, he opened ZogSports—a sports league that donates 10% of its profits to charity—in 2002.
Since then, leagues have spread from New York and the northeast out to Atlanta and the Twin Cities. Casual competitors in their 20s and 30s team up in touch-football leagues and indoor-volleyball leagues, making new friends on the field, at postgame happy hours, and at preseason press conferences.
When teams sign up for ZogSports's leagues, they choose a charity to represent. From there, teams compete to win the league championship, come up with the funniest team name, or order the most drinks at the bar after the game, all of which earn them money for their charity of choice. To date, the company has donated more than $1.5 million to various charities.
A comprehensive guide to attractions and things to do.

Now -- the presidential race we believe we know who'll be at the top of the respective tickets.
And we got an indication today of who else might be on the November ballot.
Chief political correspondent Carl Cameron has the story from one of tomorrow's primary states Pennsylvania.
Mitt Romney will campaign -- most of his top vice presidential prospects.
Florida US senator Marco Rubio a conservative Latino -- Tea Party favorite is big it's glad to be here -- the next president of the United States and now.
Look forward to being a part of -- suffered open anyway I -- rubio has been deflecting questions about the vice presidency since before his 2010 senate election.
Now rubio says he'll keep silent and let the process play out.
Even if it means both Romney and the forty year old first term senator dodged questions about his experience for the job -- First term senator.
Experienced enough to become -- number two a heartbeat away from rubio could you comment on your experience and qualifications in that regard as well.
I don't think I have any comments on that and qualifications for individuals to serve.
In various positions in government at this stage.
That's something that we're gonna be considering down the road as we consider various potential.
The vice presidential nominees.
-- I'm not I'm not talking about that process anymore.
Rubio whose parents fled Cuba to the US before he was born here could help -- court Hispanic voters and is planning a renewed push for GOP immigration reforms.
-- declined to endorse the -- say you'll study once finalized.
Team Romney's promising the most extensive vetting process in recent history so far -- his campaign -- Ohio senator Rob Portman and establishment favorite.
Wisconsin congressman and House Budget Committee chairman Paul Ryan former rival in Minnesota governor Tim Pawlenty South Dakota senator John Thune.
Virginia governor Bob McDonnell and South Carolina governor Nikki Haley.
Indiana governor Mitch Daniels just yesterday discouraged Robby for -- and asking I think I would them.
Demand reconsideration and send mr.
Romney a list of people I think did.
Could suit better the Romney rubio pairing got big applause at a town hall meeting outside Philadelphia -- -- -- extraordinary later.
The -- primaries in Pennsylvania New York Connecticut Rhode Island and Delaware are the first since Rick Santorum dropped out.
And -- he's expecting decisive victories -- only nominal competition from Ron Paul and Newt Gingrich who's broken could end his campaign any day now.
-- -- watch the primary returns Tuesday night from New Hampshire home -- the first in the nation presidential primary and run his first big win in this campaign.
Team Romney considers -- the unofficial end of the nominating contest -- And Carl more than 100 days have passed since the first in the nation Iowa Caucuses at first we had Mitt Romney declared the winner there then Rick Santorum.
They're not finalized yet but there could be another winner.
And it could -- very possibly be Ron Paul who gets the lion's share of the delegates over the course of the last weekend.
The -- Republican Party held an election for members of its central committee and Ron Paul delegates Ron Paul supporters.
Made big big games and so -- Iowa's convention comes up in June in the actual delegates are allocated it's entirely possible.
Ron Paul could come out on top in the end it won't mean much for the nomination but it does mean like in other places including Minnesota.
Ron Paul continues to pick up delegates although customarily at the end if not Romney is the is -- becomes the nominee he gets all of them by acclamation and currency conventions right OK Carl.

Our Roving Birds
6 August 2004
When walking around the Zoo, if you hear a "hello" or a "bye bye" it may not necessarily be an Australia Zoo staff person. It may instead be a team member of a different kind; perhaps one of our cheeky Sulphur-Crested Cockatoos, softly-spoken Major Mitchells or our loud and impressive Green-Winged Macaws.Our roving birds love coming into the Zoo to say hello or even to make some special friends with our Zoo guests. The roving birds are always in training whether it's learning new and exciting behaviours, breaking old cheeky habits or working closely with new rovers.
The bird flight show is only new, and has currently been going for about three months now in the new Australia Zoo Crocoseum. We are constantly bringing new trained talent into these shows and at present we are training our two beautiful three-year-old Green-Winged Macaws Inca and Picasso.
Our roving area is growing all the time. Training new rovers in our wandering wildlife team is part of my job when it comes to birds. We need to introduce all our new rovers to all our gorgeous roving birds, so they can bring them out and into the zoo for everyone to meet.
Some of the birds love to wave as guests are walking by, dance to the didgeridoo that Matt James plays or even tell a tale or two. Most of all, though, they love to show off.
So keep an eye out for these beautiful but cheeky birds as you wander through the Zoo, and be sure to come up and say g'day when you see them.

Online Reservations
right away upon entering we were greeted by the manage Igor who always makes us feel like special guests. service was impeccable as always and every cut of meat we had, we tried 12 of the 15 , were done to perfection. Treat yourself to a great night out without paying center city prices.
We finally got the opportunity to try NaBrasa and were glad we finally did. Great reception; excellent bar experience; great salad and cold bar; food was excellent! Have dined at one of the other Brazilian steakhouses in Center City Philadelphia, but the ambiance, staff and food at NaBrasa easily surpassed that dining experience. Didn't get to try the Brazilian National drink, but plan to when we return.
A great experience. Fun, lively, and swift service.
Our whole family loved everything about this restaraunt. A unique dining experience. Perfect for my birthday celebration.
Food temperature was very good- meat was cooked well. The more crowded it gets, the more frequent the servers come around. The salad bar was excellent with a large selection to choose from.
To celebrate our three year wedding anniversary, my husband and I visited NaBrasa Brazilian Restaurant and it was outstanding! The food was delicious to say the least, the drink menu was astounding, and the service was above par. We ordered drinks as soon as we arrived while waiting for our table to be ready. We were 20 minutes early but they accommodated us and sat us right away. The server did a great job explaining the dining experience and was very friendly. Once the main course began it's way around us, we couldn't believe how tender - melt in your mouth the meat was! Highly recommend trying the lamb!! The meat is seasoned just right and along with the meats, is a side of mashed potatoes and various other side dishes.
Well priced Brazilian Steak house. Almost as good as downtown!!
My first time their was for a birthday celebration and it was well worth it. We enjoyed the food, atmosphere and the service.
Classic Brazilian streakhouse fare. The side dishes on the buffet were all excellent and packed with top quality ingredients. The meats brought to the table were all perfectly cooked and sliced to order. If we wanted rare, we got rare. If we wanted medium rare, we got that spot on as well. Meats were gently seasoned and really featured the flavor of the roasted meat itself. Will definitely return.
The food was amazing and the ambiance was great. It was a great night out for a special occasion and super fun!
The food and service was phenomenal. I would highly recommend the restaurant with a few warnings. As a first timer, don't feel pressure to try everything the first time you see it. That meat will always come back around again. Don't be afraid to constantly flip your chip back over to have a moment of peace for eating. It can be challenging to have a conversation at dinner if you always have someone flipping their chip over, talking to a server. The atmosphere is busy which can leave you feeling exhausted if you don't block out the business around you. Despite these little atmosphere things, you couldn't ask for better food or service.
Outstanding service and food...Best night out with my family for any occasion!!
Went with a few friends that have never been before and we all had an amazing time. It was the 5th time for me! Great food and great service as always. No long wait on a Monday!
Been back a few times. Great food. Meat cooked perfectly! Great service.
Great food and great service. We were celebrating a birthday and everyone enjoyed it.
Have always wanted to try NaBrasa and it did not disappoint. Our waiter was energetic and explained how dining at NaBrasa worked. Even made wine and beer recommendations. After making our salad bar selections the meats started arriving and didn't stop until we flipped our chips. Most cuts were excellent and we left feeling very satisfied. Only complaints I could make are that one, it was quite warm in the dining area which made dining just a tad uncomfortable. Second, out of all the meat selections we felt that the flank steak was at our table more often than any other, sometimes two or three times in a row. We felt that it was being pushed too much since it is the cheapest cut. Otherwise, it was a great night out with friends.
This was our 1st time there. Everything was amazing! Server, food, drinks, & atmosphere.
I have been there a few times and it`s really one of the best places to have a steak/barbecue. They have lot of combinations of meats, so you never get tired of eating.
I felt confortable and very relax, the food was fresh and very good. The service was very prompt and the Head waiter made sure that you didn't need anything I defitnite would go back.
We come to NaBrasa for special occasions.......because the restaurant makes every visit special. The food is excellent (as always), staff is very friendly and down-to-earth (as always). This visit included a friend who never experienced a Brazilian steakhouse, .................................so NaBrasa has also found a new fan. Good time had by all
Our server on Friday Oct 25, was Paul. He was fabulous!!!! He was quick, friendly and just an all around great person! Hope to have him again on our next visit!!!
A local favorite that never dissapoints. Salad bar is above par with great choices and local meats and cheeses. The dinner meats are outstanding. Reservations are recommended as this is is a popular resteraunt and can fill up quickly. Dining room can be a bit on the noisy side, but the food and service more than make up for it.
I took my boyfriend here for his birthday and I could not have asked for a more perfect evening. The food was great, but most importantly the staff was absolutely phenomenal. They were on top of everything; even took requests for what meat should be sent to our table. It was pricey, but well worth every penny!
Great steaks. Great salad bar. One has to pace oneself, so much delicious food !! Bring your appetite!!
Waiter was very attentive and overall service was superb. Food was plentiful, salad bar had great variety and was fresh, and great variety of meats and all tasted great.
I enjoyed myself and it was my 20th wedding anniversary and the food was great. I'm looking forward to my next time.
Great restaurant. Easily comparable to Chima and Fogo De Cho w downtown. Great food and excellent service. Ambiance is not as good as it could be but it's far from a dive and you are coming here to eat, not have a romantic dinner. Great bar too with a good selection of wine and liquor.
My husband and I went for the first time and we really enjoyed it. The service was fantastic, food was delicious. Make sure you are hungry when you go! Although there is a reduced price for children, we were glad we didn't bring ours because we don't think they would have eaten much for the price.
I go there every year for my birthday and it is awesome. Their service is amazing, the food is amazing, the drink selection is amazing. Over all amazing restaurant.
Waitress was very attentive and all the food servers were polite, friendly and helpful. First time for us and even though it would not be a place we would go to monthly, it would be nice to share the experience with friends to come back again. Also, we would enjoy it a couple of times during the year as a different place to enjoy a festive type dinner.. Steaks were tasty and a favorite, the lamb chops.
We had a wonderful experience at NaBrasa's. It had a very pleasant atmosphere, and we were able to spend time together enjoying good food, excellent service and an overall outstanding experience for brunch. We are planning on returning for dinner because we enjoyed our time at this establishment. I would recommend it to friends and family.
Fantastic food, with 15 different meat courses available plus an EXTENSIVE salad/soup/fish bar. The bacon-wrapped filet mignon was the clear winner of the night. Our server was upbeat and tried his best to find a good craft beer for us when our first two selections were not available. I'm glad I had only a light lunch because I know I left with a full stomach. Everything was wonderful!
I have been there 4 times and I have never been disappointed. The food the sevice. Simply Amazing.
Once again a great experience . We are taking all our friends and even the pickiest people are very happy.looking forward to taking an out of town guest who's favorite is forgo dachow .
excellent for special occasions. Our waiter was awseome! (Chris) Very attentive. Food was great!
one important issue was they wer completely out of "lite" beer and also the brazilian beer-service at bar was very poor & the one thing my husband was looking forward to was having palmo brazilian beer & to be told they were out of that plus All lite beers?? very poor and shame on them!!!!
Im looking forward to comming back and want to try the dinner.
The restaurant offered excellent service. Kind, friendly, and professional servers/wait staff were every where. The food was great too.
First, the service was outsatnding. They have an outragious beer list. The wine list is also extensive though both are pricey. The numerous meats available are very well cooked. And the fish was also very well done.
I had a great experience here. The staff was very pleasant and knowledgable. The meats were outstanding cooked to your liking. You can eat all you can eat. They had a great variety of meats. Also the salad bar had a lot to choose from. I definitely recommend this restaurant. Also their Caípírínha drink, it was one of the best I've had. Their bar staff makes them the best.
Great night!!! We went to celebrate a birthday with a group of 12. I made my reservations online and everything was perfect when we got there. I couldn't have asked for better service or better food. I would have been content with just the salad bar so all the meat after that topped the night off! The atmosphere was wonderful and we all left there full. Highly recommend eating here.
We went to NaBrassa for my husband's birthday, and it is a great place to celebrate. The food is very good-the meat is on the rare side, so if you like it more done you may not have a choice. That was fine with us-the meat was juicy and flavorful. The only issue we had was we arrived a little early, and were waiting for the rest of our party. It was a cold evening, and the waiting area near the host's station was right by the door. They took our coats, and every time the door opened, we were hit by a cold blast. We moved to the bar area, which was crowded. Valet parking was a nice addition since the last time we were here.
Everything was perfect, service was amazing and food was out of this world! A dining experience that all meat eaters should try!!!
Servers help out one another, great atmosphere, will definitely be going again
Yummy Brazilian steakhouse for a local eatery, if you don't want to go downtown and pay downtown prices. NaBrasa's salad bar could be better and offer more choices although still delicious. Service was attentive, and their house specialty steak, plus their salmon, make my mouth water!
The staff at Na Brasa was excellent! They attended to our every need and request, often returning 2-3 times to the table with something my husband just mentioned he wanted (oh, that's medium filet mignon? Do you have any rare?). They were all friendly and energetic, and the food was just amazing! I had a bunch of the salad bar and side dishes, but my husband just ate the meat; as he said, after all, that was what we were there for. Overall a very positive experience.
We often come to NaBrasa for special meals (Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, personal celebrations) and it is is always a delicious experience. This time, however, it was slightly off, given that we were in the side room, vs the main dining room ... the servers with the meats were less available and we didn't see half of what we were used to from the past. I would recommend ensuring you are seated in the main dining room to maximize your dining experience.
Our Thanksgiving at NaBrasa was FANTASTIC!!! It sealed the deal for a new tradition!
We took my step daughter for her 12th birthday (this is her favorite restaurant) and, as always, the food was amazing and the service was top-notch. Always enjoyable!
Our second visit for a special occasion everyone were very professional.

Projects for 2013
Apatite in Martian meteorites: the search for water in the Martian interior
Advisor: Juliane Gross
Understanding the distribution and behavior of volatiles in Martian magmas and the corresponding mantle provides crucial constraints on planetary properties such as mantle melting temperatures and melt production, as well as the availability of magmatic fluids for any potential occurrences of life. Current evaluations of the pre-eruptive volatile concentrations of Martian magmas are based on analyses of hydrous minerals in Martian meteorites such as apatite, because they record the volatile content (OH, F, Cl) of their parental magmas. The student who will work with me will gain experience in element mapping (particularly P) on the electron microprobe to identify apatite grains within the Martian meteorite NWA6963. The student will analyze major and minor elements of apatite grains in this meteorite as well as their volatile content (Cl, F, H2O). By the end of the project we will then use the composition of those apatites to calculate fluorine, chlorine, and water fugacity ratios for the parental magma of NWA 6963, and compare them to other Martian meteorites to place constraints on the volatile content in the Martian interior.
Determining the volume of objects in chondritic meteorites using computed tomography
Advisors: Ellen Crapster-Pregont and Denton Ebel
We live in a 3D world, but geoscientists often rely on 2D analyses. The difficulty lies in drawing 3D implications from 2D results. This project will focus on data acquisition and analysis of computed tomography (CT) scans to obtain real size information for objects in meteorites. Chondrites, a type of stony meteorite, are composed of different types of objects (chondrules, Ca- and Al-rich inclusions [CAI], Fe-Ni metal) held together by a very fine-grained matrix. Each type of object records different chemical, thermal, and dynamical processes regarding the solar system before planet formation. Due to the relative scarcity and friability of chondritic material, disaggregation studies of all object types are limited. High-resolution CT scanners are able to image small pieces of chondrites in 3D without requiring sample destruction. In combination with sectioning, both 3D and 2D size information can be obtained with minimal material loss. The student will receive a crash course in planetary science in addition to training on CT operations.
Erupting Dwarf Novae in Globular Clusters
Advisors: Mike Shara and Dave Zurek
The cores of globular star clusters are amongst the densest stellar environments in the Universe. Stars are packed a million or more times closer to each other than in the solar neighborhood. Interactions between single and binary stars lead to the formation of strongly interacting white dwarf - main sequence star binaries. The white dwarfs in such binaries "cannibalize" their companions, leading to dwarf nova eruptions every few weeks or months. During an eruption a dwarf nova brightens a hundredfold in just a day, and then returns to quiescence. Theory predicts that tens of dwarf novae should exist in most clusters, but our own Hubble Space Telescope observations typically detect just a few in each of the handful of thoroughly searched clusters.
Currently, the only instrument capable of resolving the cores of globular clusters is the Hubble Space Telescope. Our summer REU student will process Hubble Space Telescope archival images in several unexamined clusters, searching for erupting dwarf novae. These clusters are chosen to be of lower density than all previously examined clusters, as high densities may be responsible for quickly destroying the dwarf novae in the clusters we have examined so far.
Magnetic Reconnection in Planet Forming Accretion Disks
Advisor: Jeff Oishi
Magnetic fields permeate the plasma that makes up the universe. The disks of dust and gas where planets are thought to be formed are no exception. Magnetic field lines change their topology by in a poorly understood process called reconnection. Understanding reconnection is crucial to understanding the evolution of these disks. It may even play a fundamental role in explaining the formation of chondrules - tiny spherical grains in meteorites that may be the first solids to have formed in the solar system. For this project, you will use supercomputer simulations, large-scale data analysis, and mathematical approximations to study magnetic fluids undergoing reconnection in planet forming disks. Together we will try to unravel the mystery of reconnection in disks by constraining what the range of length and time scales it acts over and how it may drive or be driven by turbulence.
Collisions between sedimenting dust in protoplanetary disks
Advisor: Alex Hubbard
The first step in making rocky, Earth-like, planets requires making boulders out of the raw material available: tiny, micron sized, interstellar dust grains. This occurs through the random collisions and sticking of the dust grains orbiting around the host star, as long as the collisions are not so fast that the grains fragment. We will use numerical simulations to study how often and fast these collisions occur when the dust grains are both stirred by turbulence and subject to slow drift (like dust in the atmosphere drifting to the ground).
Analysis of X-Ray Element Maps of CR Chondrites
Advisors: Shawn Wallace and Denton Ebel
The CR chondrites are central to our understanding of the formation and accretion of the earliest solids formed in the solar system, the precursors to planets. Yet even today, we poorly understand the relative abundances, sizes, shapes and compositions of the free-floating objects in space that combined to form the various chondrites! Each of these igneous silicate and metal inclusions -- chondrules, Ca-,Al-rich inclusions, metal grains -- is petrologically fascinating in its own right. The student will receive a crash course in solar system origins and meteorite petrology. The student will measure inclusions in aggregate, by applying quantitative image analysis to x-ray element maps obtained from the electron microprobe. Results will be compared with earlier work on the very different CV chondrites described by Brunner et al. (2008) and Ebel et al. (2009).
Studying Galaxies with COSMOS
Advisor: Charles Liu
COSMOS is a Hubble Treasury survey centered on the largest contiguous patch of sky ever imaged with the Hubble Space Telescope. Together with a massive international multiwavelength followup that will continue for years to come, this remarkable window on the distant universe is being applied to answer a wide variety of astronomical questions. Among the many studies being conducted is a detailed examination of strongly star-forming galaxies in the survey -- measuring their luminosities, morphologies, environments, spatial distributions, and much more. The eventual goal of such a study would be to interpret and understand the changes that have occurred in the field galaxy population as a function of cosmic time.

Earlier this year, I was making a programme about Olympic sprinters, and I was lucky enough to attend a training session in Jamaica where former 100 metres world record holder Asafa Powell and his teammates worked through a lengthy series of meticulous leg and abdomen stretches afterwards. An hour later they finally completed them.
If you're going to push your body to the limits of what's humanly possible and run 100m in less than ten seconds I can see why you need you make sure your muscles are well and truly warmed up and cooled down. But these are elite athletes – the world's best. What if you're not quite that good and are just going for a leisurely run?
We are often told that stretching muscles is the best way to avoid aching limbs the following day, or to minimise the risk of injury. I'm sure you feel better after stretching your calves or thighs. The problem is that no one seems to agree on the optimum time to do them. In Australia there is an emphasis on stretching before you start exercising. In Norway it's afterwards. Some people swear by doing both. But what is the evidence that it really makes a difference whether you do it all?
Sore point
There are two separate issues here. First is soreness, and by that I mean the kind of tenderness that creeps into your muscles a day or two after you've exercised. The kind that painfully reminds you of your previous exertions every time you move (followed rapidly by a vow never to do them again).
This is especially likely to happen if you've done an activity you've not done for a while, such as riding a bike for the first time in months because the weather has finally picked up. This type of delayed discomfort reaches its peak after two days, but the idea that stretching will prevent it stems from outdated theories as to its cause. It used to be thought that exercising for the first time after weeks or months caused the muscles to spasm, reducing the flow of the blood to the muscles, and resulting in pain. The theory went that stretching the muscles would reduce the spasm and restore the blood flow.
But more recently physiologists have established that this isn't the cause of this form of muscle soreness. Some now believe that the pain results from elongation of sarcomeres, the parts of the muscle that help them to contract. They contain thick and thin filaments, which slide past each other; in principle stretching could still help the filaments to slide smoothly, but the evidence is surprisingly limited.
There are only a small number of randomised controlled studies on stretching and exercise. A recent Cochrane Review found just twelve, and all but one had fewer than 30 participants. For the most part these studies found stretching had little impact on soreness. By far the largest study, carried out in Australia and Norway, with more than two thousand participants, found there was a small reduction in soreness in those in the stretching group. Even then this effect was very small – 24% of the stretchers were bothered by soreness the following week compared with 32% of people who didn't stretch.
Injury time
If stretches make no difference, or at best a small difference to soreness, how about injury? I'd always assumed the idea was that if you gently loosened your muscles by stretching, then you wouldn't suddenly pull a hamstring when you ran for a bus or leapt a puddle. Just six randomised controlled trials have been conducted on the prevention of injuries, some with the general public, others with members of the armed forces undergoing training. Overall there was no difference in the number of leg injuries sustained in those who did or did not stretch.
