Comments about LC Kids American Spirit Jr. Loft Bed:
This twin loft bed is made with real wood and not that pressed stuff. The assembly instructions were easy to follow and me and my nine year old son had it all assembled in less than 3 hours once we got all the pieces freed from their shipping cartons (an additional hour and a half if your being careful). All of the pieces fit and the screw holes were right where they needed to be.

Geometric construction of self-similar patterns
Fun with Fractals
Gnofract 4D is a different kind of graphics program that conjures up stunning graphics videos based on fractal mathematics.
Self-similarity is found in mathematics, nature, and systems, such as stock markets, network traffic, and stress fractures.
The whole of a self-similar object is similar to a part of its internal structures. Imagine, for example, our earth, which is known to be more or less round. If you were to descend to the surface from a satellite view and see that the continents, mountains, cities, and houses were all spheres, the earth would be reflected in smaller, self-similar objects. Of course, this is not the case, so you need to consider other objects on our home planet.

Senate panel reviewing stock offering amid allegations that investors were misled

Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
-- from fox at 3 o'clock FaceBook.
They're public offering was one of the most anticipated in recent history doubts among the most controversial.
If not among the biggest flops today the company is dealing with a series of negative developments lawsuits and investigations start things off.
Less than a week after its trouble -- on Wall Street.
FaceBook is being sued.
The group of shareholders claims.
That the social network and its big bank underwriters misled them.
By telling only a select few they downgraded the tech company's earnings forecast.
FaceBook representatives say that the suit is quote without merit.
But federal regulators are also looking into possible violations and a senate panel is also reviewing the situation.
Right now Facebook's stock is actually picking up a bit of steam after -- two -- plummet shares up more than a dollar on the day or about three and a half percent.
These latest developments have some analysts -- the IPO a disaster in some investors say they're furious that the price was too high and somebody should play.
So let's get to Michael -- Gerri Willis first from the business network what what's the latest on this FaceBook lawsuit here.
Well of course said the company is amber and defend ourselves vigorously here's what Andrew Noyes had to say we -- the lawsuit is without merit and we will defend ourselves vigorously.
But keep in mind last night we talked about Morgan Stanley lowering its revenue forecast.
Well now it turns out that FaceBook -- -- the analysts to lower their forecast now big questions about whether individual -- -- that access to that information just like the best clients of Morgan Stanley are there's some violations we could see your.
Well -- the answer questions we don't know but at the investigations are just getting underway the SEC Securities and Exchange Commission -- the self regulatory organization for brokers.
They're both looking into this.
Adding fuel to the fire course there were reports of Morgan Stanley made.
A hundred million dollars and -- and the other underwriters made a hundred million dollars -- profit on this deal.
So people are looking to them wondering what's gonna happen next.
-- -- you get a hundred dollars on the big last it is.
Get the lawyers went over the lawyers prosecutors are -- dollop of Cincinnati Reds Ellen plus.
-- -- -- associate editor of financial magazine Barron's -- which is owned by the parent company of this network what do you make of this might.
Well look I think you're breakdowns and every every point here but I don't know that it is necessarily violations.
-- too much stock came up at the last minute they basically made this deal bigger and priced at the high end because they thought they had demand for it.
That was apparently not the case just as people getting nervous about the revenue outlook and if this is true.
That perhaps Morgan Stanley analysts even in -- in formal projection said maybe revenues going to be softer than we thought they didn't tell everybody.
That's an issue there's a gray area here is supposed to rely only -- the documents when you're buying and this public offering.
But yet we have road shows we want to talk to these people so there could have been a problem there but the big problem to me was too much stock in a bad market priced a little bit too high.
And then there's the lawsuits Arthur.
If he documented you're supposed to base you -- you're predictions -- Six earnings are going to be a but then there -- phone calls that may shepherd.
Two special people this special one the ritual and spiritual ones that say it's actually going to be geek touching the -- it's actually the -- and the -- in the college student who bought fifty shares and that the Internet that day.
They don't have that information while then the SEC should come down on them with with all the force at all the power that they have.
-- Well that's not there and not necessarily in -- -- case I -- the FCC is regarded by many as something of a toothless tiger.
I get you remember this is not an -- that they can get people in trouble -- late it's only finds that they SS so at the end of the day that's probably what you'll see some kind of find on somebody somewhere.
Maybe not even now Morgan Stanley and maybe who knows somebody else in the process but I -- say.
Loved to have that information shared with individual investors because it's only fair right.
Do you -- -- I can't stand this heads I win tails you lose attitude we wouldn't be having this discussion.
If FaceBook it closed at 45 even assuming all of this stop -- allegedly went on.
Took place and the interesting thing is that a lot of people who say what you know what it's actually a good thing that it it didn't run because in the bubble doesn't -- so.
It pulls back.
And it's -- it's come up a little bit today may be rising a little bit tomorrow the day after that the day after that.
And it doesn't natural stream based upon people liking the companies opposed to just getting -- on what.
I think it's great I'll get rich square what we should we be having the conversation I agree with you you're right we -- we -- that was originally when made money but we should have been Davis.
People -- inside information and the rest of us did not.
We sure yeah.
That we should be having that company how come the big but how -- the rich people how come they got it adjusted.
Numbers that everyone sit at home did not yet that's.
I've always said the words inside information in Morgan Stanley would bristle quickly -- looking -- that process is probably not that different to what goes on and any in any given deal and that's right we're only looking at a hearing about it because the price could pop.
And you know look usually the bankers get blamed for sandbagging the public by pricing these things too low they go up 40% on the first day and you and I can't bikes -- 40% had -- but he also.
Look it's a little bit of an art in this process not just science terms of gauging the supply and demand.
They get rewarded handsomely from what they do at the end of the day and -- we really want to see is a fair and even playing field for individual investors so they can participate in the markets and that's what we need.
It's not what we're getting right now certainly not what we.
Thank you all.

From The Hill's Congress Blog:
By Jennifer Ng'andu
Deputy Director of the Health Policy Project, NCLR
There was a bright spot in the U.S. Census data released this week. While nearly a million more Latinos are wrestling with the ills of poverty, uninsurance has gone down in the Latino community. The improvements are slight, but many assumed that even small gains couldn't be possible, as record numbers of Hispanics grapple with the challenges of high unemployment rates, declining incomes, and smaller household budgets.
The small improvements are due in large part to the role that public health insurance programs, like Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), play in the households of Latinos and other Americans. There is, however, a serious concern on the horizon. Come Christmastime, the recently appointed congressional Super Committee will design a federal budget plan hoping to steer the U.S. out of debt. NCLR (National Council of La Raza) and numerous other civil rights groups fear that this conversation will be mired in politics about cutting spending for "less popular programs," like Medicaid, regardless of the very real need that they serve.

Roy K. JonesRoy K. Jones
SPRING HILL, Fla. Roy Kevin Jones, 54, died September 30, 2013, with his sister, Tina and his nephew, Christopher by his side in Spring Hill, FL.
He was born July 31, 1959, in Poultney, VT, to Clifford Charles Jones, Sr. and Mary (Jones) Belden. He was a loving grandson to Doris and Roy Kevin (Peep) Jones, beloved brother to Clifford Jones, Jr., Tina (Jones) Jensen, John Jones, and Teresa Jones. Roy grew up in Poultney and he was known among his family and friends as sweet and loving to all who knew him. Today we remember him as the sweetheart of the family.

I have been using Emacsen almost exclusively since 1990, XEmacs since release, but moved to GnuEmacs about two years ago and regret not having made the move sooner. I now download and build GnuEmacs from the CVS repository weekly.
I use GnuEmacs for pretty much everything from code and document editing, information organization, Email and most recently as a shell. My favourite packages are CcMode, AUCTeX, OrgMode, WanderLust, BbdbMode, [[Eshell?]], Magit, EMMS, Icicles, Anything and CompletionUI. For web-browsing I have changed from emacs-w3m to the excellent Conkeror; if only it was written in Lisp/Scheme rather than JavaScript. Also in a fit of Emacsophilia I changed from IceWM to the StumpWM window manager which is very Emacs like in configuration (in CommonLisp) and use.
I would like to thank all those who organize and contribute to this excellent Wiki, which adds greatly to the pleasure of configuring, extending and using Emacs.

Home Tasting Room
Online Reservations
Three of us went for a Wednesday lunch and there were very few diners. Maybe it wasn't as busy as usual because it was the week after all of the Calgary floods. Salads and sandwiches were fine - nothing amazing - but tasty enough. Friendly, very casual server.
Had a great bottle of Sauv. Blanc, and 3 appetizies!!! Wow were they ever good!!!! Will definitely be back!!
Our evening at Home Tasting Room was pretty good. We really liked the fact that you can choose between having tapas or full entrée items. We chose to go with tapas. The room itself is beautifully finished and decorated, while getting to view the kitchen working away while enjoying it all.
We took my in-laws to the Home Tasting Room for dinner. They loved it, and so did we. Great menu, reasonably priced, relaxed, refined atmosphere. We'll be back!
The tartar was great, halibut was great, the girls loved the cocktails, and the ambiance is nice. But come on, running out of ice and club soda is a rookie mistake by kitchen management. Overall, it was positive experience and the prices were reasonable.
Can't love this place anymore than I do ... Great food.. Good sizes .. Great location
Had another amazing dinner at home Tasting Room! Even when the restaurant was full & our waiter was very busy, he took the time to describe everything on the menu in detail & helped us choose wine to compliment our dinner. One of the chefs brought a complimentary amuse bouche to our table! If you know how to dine it doesn't get any better then home tasting room!
The charcuterie tasting platter is excellently prepared. Amazing scallops! My husband loved the panzanella salad. Great service. The Vietnamese iced coffee cake is simply a wonderful creation.
CFE really thinks out of the Bo's and provides interesting, fresh and fabulous dishes, with great flavour pairings. We loved the experience and left wanting the recipes.
Second time in for us. We were looking for a friendly place to feel at home with supreme food and we found it!!!! Best sevice and food... see you soon Home Tasting Room.
I appreciate the consistency -- and of course the superb creative take on a variety of ingredients. It is pricey though, and I have heard complaints that the portion sizes are too small -- but the portions sizes are just perfect for me, so I have no complaints.
My husband and I enjoyed a selection of small plates at Home Tasting Room. The charcuterie was excellent, as were the scallops. The Pazanalla salad was delicious, but was a little sparse on the bocconcini. We also tried the Prosciutto grilled vegetable salad which wasn't as flavourful as I would have liked. The cruciferous vegetables are a little on the bitter side when roasted and the dressing was applied with an exceptionally light touch - I would have liked more of an acid/sweet balance in the dressing to complement the vegetables. Overall the food was very good - far superior to Vin Room (which we have been very disappointed in) and the service was prompt and attentive. Decent wines by the glass - but very limited selection.
I have had spectacular food and wonderful service at each of my visits. I always bring different guests with me and they are always as impressed as I am, maybe even more so, if that is remotely possible. Home Tasting Room has yet to disappoint. Hats off to the chef and the serving staff!
We went on a Long weekend night, the ambiance is nice. The place was no full due to the long weekend that most people are out of town. We were quickly greet by the manager and was promptly show to our table. The waiter was very courteous and attentive. Since we brought our own wine, he come back right away with a decanter and some better glass. We order a cheese platter,some salad to share and our main course. The food was delicious and the presentation was equally as good. Overall the experience was very satisfying and we for sure will go back. This is one of the best place to dine in Calgary.
This is my new favourite place in Calgary. Among the many dishes I have enjoyed here I have to single out the Bison tartar as the best tartar I have ever had. I also really enjoyed the duck - cooked to the perfect temperature. They have a new chef and my guess is that once word gets out about the new menu and the quality of the food it is going to become a lot busier. Great wine list as well.
At our request, we were seated outside on a beautiful summer day - Calgary Opera was performing right next to us so we had wonderful entertainment during our lunch. The only 'wrong' thing was that my colleague ordered iced tea and got diet coke instead. He didn't rock the boat - he's not that kind of guy. Other than that, there's nothing negative to say. I love this place.
We had a great first time dinner at Home Tasting Room. The server was obviously new and learning the ropes so was not as fast, engaging or knowledgeable as someone that would have been there as long but she was under watchful eye of either the management to assist her along. It took a little while for our drink and dinner orders however once they were taken the food came out fast and fresh. I love having smaller plates so that you can choose a variety of things off the menu and share them with others. I also loved that they had a Pimm's on the beverage menu, this can sometimes be hard to find. Will definitely be back!
We are from Edmonton and we were looking for a great place to celebrate my friend's birthday. We definitely found it at the Home Tasting Room. Great food, awesome concept for the sharing plates, and a "no rush" feeling while we were dining. Overall, I would say it was a great experience and we would definitely come back!
My wife is vegetarian and i noticed on the menu online there was nothing for her. I booked it anyway and let the kitchen know in advance. Upon arrival the server told my wife what exactly the kitchen team planned to make to fit her restrictions. It was amazing. Top notch
I went to Home Tasting Room for lunch with my beau and sat out on the patio. The staff were attentive and polite right from the get-go, and we were looked after immediately upon getting settled. The patio was clean and beautifully decorated; there were some problems with gnats from the planters but generally the ambiance was lovely. The food was amazing and not over-priced for the quality and amount. We picked from the sharing menu and appetizers and very much enjoyed all the options. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a stylish, affordable restaurant in the heart of downtown!
Enjoyed our dinner. Lamb saddle and pork / lobster surf and Turk were both great.
I was very pleased with the knowledge and flexibility of the staff at "Home." They didn't blink when I told them my allergies (including but not limited to gluten and dairy). The food was delicious and the staff friendly. I would definitely return and recommend it to others.
Home's delicious offerings are way above most on Stephen Ave. You may find the menu a little pricier than some of the other run-of the-mill pubs, but the food is much higher quality - every bite is delicious! Unique cocktails, great sharing plates & mains, and fantastic desserts! The staff are warm and attentive - top notch customer service This was my second visit but I'm sure I'll be back many more times! It is quiet and has great ambiance - a great option for a date or special occasion.
Everything we ate was excellent. Servers were friendly and polite, but the food took a long time to come.
Excellent service and very friendly. Food was good. Only down point was even though I was alone it took along time for the main dish to be served, but on the other hand it was a busy night. Understandable.
Food was amazing, a combination of complementing flavours in all dishes.
The service was friendly, helpful and at a comfortable level. There was no manufactured noise which too many places seem to think conveys the idea that it's a fun place. The gazpacho was outstanding! I will return, and I will recommend it to friends.
I am this is the third visit to Home Tasting in about 2 months. There is a good reason I keep coming back.......I simply love the food here!!! This is my favorite summer lunch time destination!! The menu is not extensive but everything is worth trying and is wonderful!!
Apps were great, entrée were ok..... A little cold and dry, Great place still, would try it out again. Service is excellent..
Went with group of 6 on Friday evening before theatre. Several other larger tables there at that time but restaurant handled well. Server was attentive and knowledgable. Food had the flavours and good variety. Had lamb and it was excellent. Only issue was entre's are a bit on the small side. I don' t need any more but I wanted more. Pricing was reasonable but reflcted size of mains. Would recommend.
Went to Home Tasting Room on the recommendation of our youngest daughter and were delighted with the food, the service and the ambiance. Definitely a keeper on the list of Calgary restaurants to go back to. The Gazpacho soup was exceptional - and I was a little sceptical given the description but the flavors were outstanding. The gnocchi were delicious and the mains were very good as were the desserts. The disappointment - as with many restaurants, the coffee didn't live up to the rest of the meal. The price was very reasonable given what one sees in downtown Calgary these days.
The service was outstanding. As we all know service can make or break a dining experience out. In this case it just added to the very good food and the good time we were having.
This is one of my favourite restaurants in Calgary. The service is always exceptional, and I have never had a bad meal. I highly recommend the Forest Mushroom Agnolotti, the Alberta Duck Breast, and the Gnocchi sharing plate.
Great food! Wonderful Atmosphere, service was on the ball the entire time, almost too much, water glass could not get less than 3/4 full, it turned into a bit of a joke, but can't complain much since they were just providing good service!
We had oysters, scallops and bison tartare to begin. Scallops were small and uninspiring but the oysters were great and the bison tartare was fantastic. Anglotti and NY Strip for mains. Pasta was rich and flavorful. Cream cheese and goat cheese filling. Steak was standard but with some nice sauces to accompany. Portions are not big but just right. Will definitely come back.
The food and service at Home Tasting Room was exceptional. We enjoyed a range of appetizers and entrees that were all very well-prepared, and we really appreciated the friendly and attentive server and manager.
We all know that many great relationships are built around food. That's why I take my clients out to lunch. The experience for both me and the client is all the more enhanced when I go to a restaurant where I am a 'regular'. Not only is there a warmth to the service, which impresses the client, the chefs prepare little morsels just for you....Such has become my experience at Home Tasting Room. The lunch menu ranges from healthy to hearty and they do provide nice little boxes to take half of the huge sandwich home...if you can resist finishing it all at one sitting. The food is delicious and the pickled veg are scrumptious. If you've still got room....have the smores - they're fantastic.
The food was very good. It was the last night for the summer menu so we will have to return again. Great location close to Convention Centre for parking.
We had a lovely server and was delightful to eat there.
Open kitchen is entertaining. Staff are excellent. Food is creative, wholesome and has homemade feel. The share plates are the star of the show. Sticky toffee bread pudding was a pleasant surprise.
Wife and myself enjoyed our night out at the Home Tasting Room. Great selection of wine and cocktails, but the food really sold it for us. Tasting Plates such as the bison tartar, home made photo chips, chive & ricotta gnocchi, and scallops were fantastic and fresh. Service was conistant throughout the night and our server was fun to talk to. I walk past the Home Tasting Room every day on my way to work and always wanted to try their food. After our expereince, we certanly will be back for more.
Great night tasting from their sampler menu. No issues with the service but was overcharged on the final bill. Check your bill carefully.
The roasted beet salad and chive ricotta gnocchi were amazing. Our server was one of the best I've had in a long time in Calgary. Fantastic experience and I would go back and recommend it highly.
Everything was very tasty. The space is decorated very "home" like. Its got that fancy restaurant feel with a relaxed home sense. My only comment would be that at some points the service was a tad slow. Not that we were rushing but it was a long wait at times. Make a mean Cosmopolitan! ALSO, they have gluten free bread and chips. Very curtious.
This restaurant is amazing in every aspect, from crib appeal to dessert. The food is outstanding and the chefs are experienced and won't let your pallet down. The wine selection is great and fairly priced. I will recommended this restaurant to anyone.
Ate here tuesday on a refferal from an associate, after reading promising reviews I decided to try it. Every dish was well prepared, the artic char was slightly over salted but it was a minor flaw, the pea rissotto was also suprisingly delicious, rich aand creamy. The prize of the meal was the bison tartare, an absoulute masterpiece of culinary arts. The hint of truffle, raises it to a higher level and the crostini are crisp and flavourful, even before the bison, it would be exeptional as a garlic bread. The deset was well made, light and flavourful with elegant changes in textures, topped with flavourful alchool soaked cherries, little pockets of boom, confusing the taste buds. I'm in fort mc until January but this will be my first stop.
We really enjoyed our dinner and night out here. The food was wonderful and the service was great
Excellent! Love the variety of wine per glass! The restaurant allows visibility into the kitchen and both my guest and I were impressed by the smoothness of the operation and the lack of stress on the chefs, even though the restaurant was quite busy.
Although it as very cold on our way to the restaurant, once we arrived we were pleased to be in such a warm inviting room. The ambience is very relaxing and our server was in attendance right away. The main meals met all of our expectations and was finished off by some delicious desserts and coffee. We would have enjoyed staying longer but had to get back to work.
The food and service are never lacking. Always a good time. Chef is very talented!
