Online Reservations
Bliss is located in the vibrant arts district of Philadelphia. The over-sized retractable doors made it feel like we were sitting outside. Our lunch was a 1:00 so it wasn't too crowded. The server was friendly and knowledgeable. The food was excellent. We didn't feel rushed. Very good experience!
The Lemontini was refreshing, and I was plesantly surprised to find a great red zinfindel by the glass. The poached pear salad was flavorful and the Gnudi app was ok. The porl tenderloin was perfectly cooked, tender and juicy, full of flavor and paired nicely with apples and the creamiest sweet potato mash. The salmon was slightly over cooked to my liking, but had a tasty crust and paired with a delicious butternut squash/risotto side. I was a little disappointed they were out of chocolate gelato (even though I was stuffed from dinner), but the espresso gelato was delightful. The server we had was extremely attentive and nice. Loved sitting in the open window area looking out onto Broad Street!
Cobb salad was great. Service was very attentive. Great location for lunch.
We had an exceptional lunch. The salmon was cooked nicely. We will definitely be coming back.
This was my second time here, and I enjoyed it as much as the first. Being greeted personally by the owner each time is such a nice touch, and the food is outstanding! The Scallop appetizer with the pineapple is a favorite and the Salmon is out of this world. I will defineltely be back.
With Bliss, you always know what you're getting. Its one of our "go to" places. We like the owner, Ron, and his food is always consistently good. Nice place. Worth going to. Good for Happy Hour too, which is rare, since the dinners are very good.
Surprisingly good food and outstanding service considering the modest venue
Fresh, consistently excellent food in an exceptionally pleasant atmosphere. The owner is usually present to greet and hobnob with patrons. Just an all-around great experience.
My new favorite. Haven't had a bad meal here. I have been trying something new everytime I go, and my favorite is still the Salmon but the crab cake is delicious with sides that are light and refreshing. The Sea Bass is fantastic. The Risotto was simply blissful.
I visited for the first time with my daughter for dinner and we loved it. The service was very good and the food was good. I would go back again!
The restaurant is a perfect place to dine before seeing a ballet, the food was good, but nothing spectacular. The desserts were very good though!!
We tried Bliss during restaurant week and had the fixed menu. The food was great, the server was friendly and efficient, the windows were open so we heard the street noise which was okay. The temnperature of the space was comfortable. Everyone from the server and the front staff were friendly. We will come again and recommend Bliss to others.
I love this place. If you can get seated near the window you get a great opportunity to people watch. Our server was extremely knowledgable and helpful. There were 4 of us and everyone really enjoyed their meals. I had the crab cake. And we also had the flatbread app - yum! Others had the pork tenderloin, filet mignon, pear salad, creme brûlée, and cheesecake. The cheesecake had a delightful blueberry sauce served with it, however, since cheesecake is my husband's favorite dessert we have it virtually everywhere - not sure I'd get it here again. The only real negative I can say is the cost of entrees is a bit prohibitive. We would go here more if it were a bit more affordable but you do get what you pay for.
Great food, really accommodating staff! They will even give you a discount on parking if you need it! I had the Chilean sea bass and it was delicious. My boyfriend had the pork. It was good as well. We split the egg rolls/sesame rolls and they were awesome!! Would definitely go there again!!
Very guest focused service, and great food. This was an exceptional choice for a client lunch. Would highly recommend.
I had lunch at Bliss last week with a business colleague. It was a beautiful day, with some people seated outside, but we wanted to have a confidential conversation so we ate in the upstairs dining area - where we were alone. The food was very good - a Panini and a "Kobe Burger," plus salad. The service was very attentive - the server had to walk up a flight of stairs to see if we were OK - he did this frequently and appropriately, so we didn't feel rushed and we didn't feel ignored. The prices were very reasonable.
Located on Broad, this is the place to head before any show. Our night of dining was any night, during a show....we were one of three tables in the entire place. Attentive staff, appetizing dishes, and fairly priced/valued.
Warm, friendly, attentive and accommodating hostess, server and bartender. Diverse cocktail menu. Superb wine list. Menu diverse for any palate. Presentation perfect. Delicious. Well done...
First time at Bliss, food was very good and creative for dishes that are staples of success everywhere. Had crab cakes , presentation was perfect with a combination of greenery that complimented the dish perfectly. Was comfortable and the cocktails were made and presented properly. Great first impression...When I go back and they do it again I will raise the bar : ) Nice!!
We love this place. The food is great -- not fussy or inventive, but high-quality comfort food. But there's one problem: We've been coming for years, and they still don't seem to be able to deal with the full house they regularly get on Saturday evenings. The service on this latest occasion was extremely slow -- despite their knowing we had a show to catch, it took a half-hour for the appetizers to show up and for a simple glass of wine to be brought to the table. This has happened repeatedly here, and it's been years, so the place obviously hasn't learned basic management techniques. Other than that, however, the food and ambience are top-notch and make for a pleasant dining experience -- if you don't need to keep checking your watch.
Besides the food being wonderful and the service being excellent, the manager/hostess were exceptionally accommodating. We came from far away ( New Jersey & Baltimore ) and our son was delayed, but they were very understanding! We felt very at ease and they made us feel welcome and not bothered due to our lateness. We would definitely return! [The food was excellent as well as the service too.]
We dined again at Bliss this past Saturday night. We had a 7 PM reservation and an 8 PM theater show, and as always, Bliss does a fabulous job pacing the meal just right. It is always busy and I'm impressed with how consistently they manage to get everything done quickly and well. They are also great about seating us at our reservation time. The food was delicious and Eric, our server, was attentive and responsive. Bliss, keep up the great work!
A very convenient location for dinner before attending events at Kimmel Center. Excellent food, drinks and great service. We look forward to our next visit.
We meet once a month for lunch. This time we both had the salmon special -- it was excellent. Bliss is consistent with quick attentive service and great food offered in a very nice setting. I can't think of a better place for us to meet for lunch.
Went to celebrate our 38th anniversary. It was fantastic!
Fine food, friendly "neighborly-like" feel in a restaurant right in the middle of The Avenue of the Arts, with theaters all around and the Kimmel Center, the home of the Phila Orchestra.
We were lucky - there was only one other table occupied. Service was outstanding,t he food was wonderful, and it was a perfectly intimate night for friends to catch up. I would go there again in a heartbeat.
This place is fantastic. We ate lunch and the food was great. My wife ordered the cheese plate. She got to order the cheeses she wanted. I can not believe the wonderful the staff was. From the owner to our waiter... she was a joy. We went back for dinner.
This was our second time at Bliss. The owner remember our names. I had a teck issue and hit the wrong day button so I was listed as a no show. I explained may lack of computer skills. This place is a gem. Next time in Philly we will be back.
I selected this restaurant because we only had an hour to eat before attending a concert at the Kimmel Center and Sbraga's, our go-to restaurant, was fully booked. The menu at Bliss was diverse enough to please foodies and delivered a solid well-priced, high quality meal. Our waiter was outstanding in creating a well-paced flow of dishes so that we had a cushion of time before the performance. My one suggestion to the restaurant would be an upgraded selection of wine by the glass, but admittedly the choices were serviceable. Bliss will not blow you away as a destination restaurant, but it is a very good option for a "pre-theater" meal.
Well, maybe not bliss exactly, but very good. One of the best steaks I have had in years.
This restaurant is close to most theaters, Kimmel, and Academy of Music. You can park and walk to and from dinner. The wait staff is friendly and the food is good.
We've eaten here at least 4 times before and chose the restaurant because it is close to the Kimmel Center, so great for a pre-concert meal. Our table this time was right next to the service area, so a bit energetic and active with re: to servers running back and forth. But, for what we wanted, service was good, and friendly (but not obsequious), and the food was very nicely prepared. They also make a nice Makers Mark Manhattan. We had the seafood special (Thai-spiced with lots of good seafood) and the salmon, which was very nice and not overcooked or over-sauced. A reliable place for a pre-orchestra or pre-theatre meal, but a bit tight and noisy for more languorous dining.
Probably the best sea bass we've ever tasted. The service was outstanding! We sat upstairs which was much quieter. Really enjoyed this restaurant and will be back!
We have enjoyed the braised short ribs many times in the past...but this visit they were the best. Bliss is a wonderful spot for a relaxing, pre-theater dinner. We'll definitely be back! Thanks.
This was perhaps the fifth time we have eaten at Bliss. I don't think that we have ever been disappointed. My wife had the chicken and I had the salmon and both were done perfectly and seasoned very nicely. Butternut risotto accompanied the salmon and was perfect. About the only disappointing feature of the meal was the bread, which left something to be desired. Service was friendly and attentive and the restaurant is comfortable and attractive. If you get a window seat, you can watch the Avenue of the Arts crowd pass by. We'll be back.
Bliss is a lovely restaurant with delicious food and a very friendly staff. Everyone made us feel comfortable and we had a wonderful evening.
Bliss is a very nice restaurant. It is a great place to go for very good food before a show or the orchestra.
My wife and I had a very enjoyable dinner Tuesday night. Our waiter Luis was very helpful in our selection for dinner and constantly checked back with us to see if everything was to our liking and did we need anything else during our meal. We will be back.
This gem still gives you a great meal and wonderful service. The staff are very friendly- a bit like coming home.
Very pleasant and comfortable room Food excellent for all tastes
We had not eaten at Bliss in some time, but our dinner Saturday evening was delightful. I started with hearty red pepper soup and my wife had a delicious salad. We followed with salmon and pork tenderloin, both nice portions and cooked perfectly. The focaccia made a nice accompaniment. Service was prompt; we were in and out in 70 minutes, without feeling rushed. We'll be back.
The Chilean sea bass was the best I've ever had and the appetizers and desert my wife and I shared were great as well. Also loved the ginger mojito
Although I had been to Bliss for lunch, we had never tried it for dinner and we were definitely not disappointed. Our party of 4 each shared a few appetizers and found them to be very tasty. All entree portions were generous and the short ribs and gnocchi were outstanding! My friend loved her mixed seafood stew too. Our waiter, Kevin, was extremely attentive and was very conscious of our time constraint, as we needed to get to a show at the nearby Kimmel Center. We will definitely go there again when in Center City.
Early supper before the Orchestra. Service excellent. Pear salad, chicken, and pork very good. Substitution of vegetable made with no fuss. Gelato a bit gummy, but good flavor. We'll return.
What a difference a great waiter can make to a fine dining experience. Kevin, it was a delight to have your talents at our table you made what was already a great dinner fantastic!
Close to the Theatre and good, solid American Cuisine! Will be back.
My 13 year old daughter and I had a wonderful lunch before seeing a play. The owner, Chris, was personable and attentive. He even offered to hold our shopping purchases for us to pick up after the play. The food was excellent, and the wait staff were as pleasant and attentive as the owner. My daughter had the salmon and butternut squash risotto. The salmon was perfectly prepared, and the portion was larger than I have received in many restaurants for a full dinner portion. She finished her entire meal, despite saying she was not even hungry She gave her experience the highest rating possible, saying she would really like to go back. It is amazing the effect personal service can have on enjoying a meal.
Our dinner at Bliss was a blissful experience. Service was extremely attentive, pleasant, and prompt, the ambiance was quite pleasant, and the food was outstanding. We definitely will recommend it to friends and return ourselves.
Sarah our waitress was very accomidating and I hope she hears this feed back! The food was wonderful and deliscious.

The student uses numerical and computational concepts and procedures in a variety of situations.
The student demonstrates number sense for real numbers and algebraic expressions in a variety of situations.
knows, explains, and uses equivalent representations for real numbers and algebraic expressions including integers, fractions, decimals, percents, ratios; rational number bases with integer exponents; rational numbers written in scientific notation; absolute value; time; and money (2.4.K1a) ($), e.g., –4/2 = (–2); a(-2) b(3) = b3/a2.

If B represents the cost of a book and C represents the cost of a calculator, generate two different expressions to represent the cost of books and calculators for 9 math classrooms.
determines whether or not solutions to real-world problems using real numbers and algebraic expressions are reasonable (2.4.A1a) ($), e.g., in January, a business gave its employees a 10% raise. The following year, due to the sluggish economy, the employees decided to take a 10% reduction in their salary. Is it reasonable to say they are now making the same wage they made prior to the 10% raise?
compares and orders real numbers and/or algebraic expressions and explains the relative magnitude between them (2.4.K1a) ($), e.g., will (5n)2 always, sometimes, or never be larger than 5n? The student might respond with (5n)2 is greater than 5n if n > 1 and (5n)2 is smaller than 5 if o < n < 1.

Later Sam took a $10 bill and a $5 bill to the bank and received a check for $15. $ addition and multiplication properties of equality, e.g., the total price for the purchase of three shirts in $62.54 including tax. If the tax is 3.89, what is the cost of one shirt, if all shirts cost the same?
addition and multiplication properties of equality, e.g., the total price for the purchase of three shirts is $62.54 including tax. If the tax is $3.89, what is the cost of one shirt?
zero product property, e.g., Jenny was thinking of two numbers. Jenny said that the product of the two numbers was 0. What could you deduct from this statement? Explain your reasoning.
explains and illustrates the relationship between the subsets of the real number system [natural (counting) numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, irrational numbers] using mathematical models (2.4.K1a), e.g., number lines or Venn diagrams.
identifies all the subsets of the real number system [natural (counting) numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, irrational numbers] to which a given number belongs (2.4.K1m).
Jenny said that the product of the two numbers was 0. What analyzes and evaluates the advantages and disadvantages of using integers, whole numbers, fractions (including mixed numbers), decimals or irrational numbers and their rational approximations in solving a given real-world problem (2.4.A1a) ($), e.g., a store sells CDs for $12.99 each. Knowing that the sales tax is 7%, Marie estimates the cost of a CD plus tax to be $14.30. She selects nine CDs. The clerk tells Marie her bill is $157.18. How can Marie explain to the clerk she has been overcharged?
names, uses, and describes these properties with the real number system and demonstrates their meaning including the use of concrete objects (2.4.K1a) ($):
commutative (a + b = b + a and ab = ba), associative [a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c and a(bc) = (ab)c], distributive [a (b + c) = ab + ac], and substitution properties (if a = 2, then 3a = 3 x 2 = 6);
identity properties for addition and multiplication and inverse properties of addition and multiplication (additive identity: a + 0 = a, multiplicative identity: a • 1 = a, additive inverse: +5 + –5 = 0, multiplicative inverse: 8 x 1/8 = 1);

estimates real number quantities using various computational methods including mental math, paper and pencil, concrete objects, and/or appropriate technology (2.4.K1a) ($).
uses various estimation strategies and explains how they were used to estimate real number quantities and algebraic expressions (2.4.K1a) ($).
estimates to check whether or not the result of a real-world problem using real numbers and/or algebraic expressions is reasonable and makes predictions based on the information (2.4.A1a) ($), e.g., if you have a $4,000 debt on a credit card and the minimum of $30 is paid per month, is it reasonable to pay off the debt in 10 years?
determines if a real-world problem calls for an exact or approximate answer and performs the appropriate computation using various computational strategies including mental math, paper and pencil, concrete objects, and/or appropriate technology (2.4.A1a) ($), e.g., do you need an exact or an approximate answer in calculating the area of the walls to determine the number of rolls of wallpaper needed to paper a room? What would you do if you were wallpapering 2 rooms?
knows and explains why a decimal representation of an irrational number is an approximate value (2.4.K1a).
knows and explains between which two consecutive integers an irrational number lies (2.4.K1a).
explains the impact of estimation on the result of a real-world problem (underestimate, overestimate, range of estimates) (2.4.A1a) ($), e.g., if the weight of 25 pieces of paper was measured as 530.6 grams, what would the weight of 2,000 pieces of paper equal to the nearest gram? If the student were to estimate the weight of one piece of paper as about 20 grams and then multiply this by 2,000 rather than multiply the weight of 25 pieces of paper by 80; the answer would differ by about 2,400 grams. In general, multiplying or dividing by a rounded number will cause greater discrepancies than rounding after multiplying or dividing.
The student models, performs, and explains computation with real numbers and polynomials in a variety of situations.
generates and/or solves multi-step real-world problems with real numbers and algebraic expressions using computational procedures (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, roots, and powers excluding logarithms), and mathematical concepts with ($):

Find the acceleration if a force of 20 newtons is applied to a mass of 3 kilograms.
volume and surface area given the measurement formulas of rectangular solids and cylinders (2.4.A1f), e.g., a silo has a diameter of 8 feet and a height of 20 feet. How many cubic feet of grain can it store?
probabilities (2.4.A1h), e.g., if the probability of getting a defective light bulb is 2%, and you buy 150 light bulbs, how many would you expect to be defective?
application of percents (2.4.A1a), e.g., given the formula A = P(1+r divided by n) to the nt, when A = amount, P= principal, r = annual interest, n= number of compounding periods per year, t= number of years. If $1,000 is placed in a savings account with a 6% annual interest rate and is compounded semiannually, how much money will be in the account at the end of 2 years?
simple exponential growth and decay (excluding logarithms) and economics (2.4.A1a) ($), e.g., a population of cells doubles every 20 years. If there are 20 cells to start with, how long will it take for there to be more than 150 cells? or If the radiation level is now 400 and it decays by ½ or its half-life is 8 hours, how long will it take for the radiation level to be below an acceptable level of 5?
computes with efficiency and accuracy using various computational methods including mental math, paper and pencil, concrete objects, and appropriate technology (2.4.K1a) ($).

percent one number is of another number, e.g., 89 is what percent of 82?
a number when a percent of the number is given, e.g., 80 is 32% of what number?
manipulation of variable quantities within an equation or inequality (2.4.K1d), e.g., 5x – 3y = 20 could be written as 5x – 20 = 3y or 5x(2x + 3) = 8 could be written as 8/(5x) = 2x + 3;

Rama is so strong. He should not have killed Vali and Rama would have got Sita more easily becaus Vali defeated a animal with the strengt of a thousand elephants. Why would Ravana keep Sita for so long that Rama is defeating the Rakseshas and Sis so easily

Ravana is a rebirth of the devout gatekeeper of Mahavishnu. Vishnu loved him a lot. He was cursed by a muni because he did not let the muni inside the when Vishnu was resting. The Muni Cursed him to be born in the next 3 births as the Biggest Enemy to Vishnu. So, he was born as Hiranya Kashyapu, Ravana and Kamsa.
It was imperative that Ravana does as much sin as possible so that Lord vishnu(In the form of RAM) himself kills him and gives him salvation. If Bali was alive, then Ravana couldnt have taken away Sita from his forest. Coz Ravan was scared of Bali. Bali had defeated Ravan and spared his life in many occasions. If Bali kills Ravan, he wouldnt get salvation.
Another reason could be that due to abduction of Sita, Ravan became an enemy to RAM. After this, he kept thinking of RAM (IN AN ANGRY MANNER). He wanted to kill RAM and own sita. In the due course, he unknowingly (though angrily) chanted Rams name so much that, eventually god had to listen to him and give him salvation. :)

Microsoft today released Service Pack 1 for Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2, to all users. A Service Pack is a periodical cumulative of updates released between a period of time, that also introduces new features to the OS. For both operating systems based on the Windows 6.1 kernel, Service Pack 1 will provide all product and security updates released to date. A couple of new features that will benefit Windows 2008 R2 are also bundled. These include Dynamic Memory and RemoteFX. Dynamic Memory lets Hyper-V administrators pool available memory on a physical host and dynamically distribute it to any virtual machine(s) running on that host, while RemoteFX lets Windows Server 2008 R2 administrators provide a rich end user desktop virtualization experience by delivering vivid content, independent of any graphics stack, to server-hosted virtual and session-based desktops. We put Windows 7 Service Pack 1 to test, to see how the updated OS benefits gamers, or if it does in the first place. Our performance analysis can be read here. A list of notable changes with SP1 can be read here.
I'm gonna stay away from it for at least 1 or 2 months. Usually installing a new SP breaks a ton of little stuff and brings a ton of headaches
Anyone notices less gui latency with sp1? I'm trying to figure out if it's just me or it's real lol. Probably just me though
Have SP1 installed now, no noticeable differences as always. Had an issue after the install though,after it installed my system couldn't shut down and restart lol. It was stuck on ''Shutting Down'', so i had to forcibly turn it off and restart.
Thanks to neowin user figgy: Tried this and it worked a treat. Only use if your not going to uninstall the SP any time!
Well I installed it . I had to redo windows experience index , Now my RAM only gets 5.9 my HDD gets 5.8 were as before My ram showed up as 7.5 along with the CPU and the HDD at 5.9 . This sucks now ! Every thing works fine just seems like I got kicked in the teeth there !
no, it includes all the hotfixes that weren't available in WU as well. the ones you had to request, etc.
So any one know why my performance went from 7.5 on the ram to 5.9 with this service pack ? That kinda sucks to see this HUGE hit in my performance rating . I know I shouldn't really care about it but it is some thing that is getting under my skin now . I mean is my 1100MHz ram that BAD ? or is this service pack that bad ? I even uninstalled it to no avail it has not changed so I reinstalled it ! OH well I guess I will just have to suffer with the low rating .

Slant Cornelious Skis (Skogan Pro)
- Lengths: 162.1, 174.3, 186
- Dimensions: 133 - 119 - 126
Product Info:
Named after Skogen Sprang's grand-pappy, the Cornelious is one serious rockered fatty. It features a light bamboo core underlaid with carbon fiber for greater strength. Slant recently tested a new, even lighter strain of bamboo with similar strength properties. The company is using that proprietary bamboo in all their skis this year. "This ski is playful, light, great in pow and crud, fun on groomers and is easy to turn," said a tester. "Skogen killed it with this one." It's stiff underfoot and softens towards the tip allowing it to handle well at high speeds and float through varying terrain like drifts and drops.

text: Holly Spangler Archives Email Author Follow @@hollyspangler Genetic Modification, a Hot Topic at Food Dialogues: Part One Amid the enormous Chicago-based BIO convention, USFRA gathers stakeholders to talk about GM crops and media coverage. Published on: Apr 23, 2013 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print As an estimated 20,000 people descended upon Chicago for the annual BIO convention, assembling to discuss all facets of biotechnology and industry, the U.S. Farmers & Ranchers Alliance held another of their ongoing panel discussions, known as the Food Dialogues. Called "The Straight Story on Biotech in Agriculture," the goal of this panel was to talk about how media covers agricultural biotechnology. Moderated by CNBC senior analyst Ron Insana, the panel also included Dr. Bob Goldberg, UCLA plant molecular biologist; Emily Anthes, science journalist and author; Jerry Slocum, Mississippi soybean farmer; Melinda Hemmelgarn, registered dietician and radio host; Mike Olson, radio host; Pam Johnson, Iowa corn farmer; Steve Smith, head of RoldGold tomatoes and chair of saveourcrops.org.(L-R) Emily Anthes, Jerry Slocum, Ron Insana, Melinda Hemmelgarn, Mike Olson share their thoughts on the Chicago Food Dialogues panel. Insana kicked off the discussion by asking whether agricultural biotechnology receives sufficient media coverage. "Yes and no," replied Anthes. "There's one particular development and it's covered a very narrow way. Sort of the 'single study syndrome.' What we're really lacking is when the dust settles from a single study, to then take a nuanced look at the research. But when that study isn't in the headlines anymore, there isn't a nuanced reporting that follows." Hemmelgarn agreed, adding that while Americans were comfortable with long-form stories 20 and 30 years ago, today they are programmed for sound bites and for taking in information in a shorter and more concise way.Bob Goldberg, Emily Anthes, Jerry Slocum, Ron Insana, Melinda Hemmelgarn, Mike Olson, Pam Johnson and Steve Smith take part in the Food Dialogues Panel in Chicago, April 22. "We in production agriculture would appreciate balanced coverage if possible," Slocum added. From there, the panel moved on to pervasive myths - in part generated by Hemmelgarn's comments regarding the need for more pre-market testing of GM crops. Anthes disputed that assertion: "What's really sold to consumers is that these crops are untried and untested. That's just false. There have been 600 studies at last count, and a third were independently funded. So that's 200, at the very least. The European Union has funded research for 25 years on these crops. The notion that there's no data is not true. When people say, 'I don't want these products in the market because they're untested,' that's the most pervasive myth."Panelists discuss biotech issues at the Food Dialogues Panel April 22. And while organic farmers were not represented on this panel, Hemmelgarn agreed to speak for them. "They are independently certified. They do not spray their crops with glyphosate. GM products are not allowed. I recommend people at high risk - children, women of child bearing age - that they choose an organic diet because it exposes them to lower risk." Her assertion raised the eyebrows of some of her fellow panelists, including Goldberg, who offered a fiery retort: "There is no fact to support you making the recommendation that pregnant women eat only organic. I've never heard so much nonscientific nonsense. What we have been trying to do in the laboratory has been done in a very serious and concerted way. Every single, solitary scientific organization has deemed these products safe for human consumption."

This problem has now been sent as a route that goes to the top. The start can be done three ways providing three different variations. A V2 off width problem to start , a V1 layback problem to start, or a stand start that still goes at 5.8. Either way, once past the initial start, the crack is wide and it goes to the top. Some mandatory 5.8 off width was required here. We thought it was enjoyable, and I even threw in a foot stack or two. Unlike most DL off width cracks that are surrounded by blocky ledges this was legit crack climbing. (INFO on original boulder problem below) This problem is super fun, and is one of a kind at the lake. OW roof crack problem, which we found best to climb feet first. Starts on juggy flake inside crack. Finishes out and around roof about 10 feet up on an obvious jug. Chair Bivy would be 4 star problem if not for two reasons: OW climbing could be by passed by lay backing the flake with low feet.
Chair Bivy Buttress, obvious wide splitter crack up the formation.
Some Large cams for the route. A single pad and spotter will do the trick if just trying the boulder problem.
Hey, "Description" "Location" etc show up twice. Looks like a "blue collar" route ;)
Chris, is it possible to get this route sorted to the left of the Two Dead Ducks route on the Chair Bivy Buttress with out deleting it and re- adding all the of the info?
Yup. Awesome looking line. Nice work!
This looks cool, never seen this area before.

100 Heroes Project
Join me as I spend a year in search of adventure and inspiration
The Project
The 100 Heroes Project is this Indian girls quest for Inspiration. Starting June 12th 2010, I'm taking off to travel the world.
I will find my way to six continents to meet a hundred amazing people who're changing the future of their countries, one small step at a time. A hundred champions of a world worth saving.
Along the way, I want to raise support and funds for the people I meet. Using 'Social Media for Social Good'. The hundred Heroes I hope to meet are doing their bit to change the world. A hundred thousand of us can pitch in to make their lives a little easier. A small 'Thank You' to them from the Universe.
Lessons in courage, dedication and humanity guaranteed. Epiphanies, wake up calls and inspiration to change your world will be purely incidental.
I believe in volunteering and that it is a powerful medium to bring about social change. And I am passionate about education that goes beyond literacy. When I am not doing either, I can be found at Texas Instruments solving interesting system problems, reading, running or just pondering (read more

Thinking about taking:
AppNut RPM- 2 caps preworkout (may increase to 3)
AppNut Drive- 3 capsules twice daily
Sci Fit Beta Alanine- 2 grams twice daily dosed with Drive
Sci Fit Kre-Alkalyn-1.5 grams twice daily dosed with Drive
ALCAR- 1g in the morning daily
Noopept- 20 mg preworkout and/or socially (package recommends 3x daily not sure if it should be dosed more than once daily)
My main concern is with the noopept and if there are any harmful interactions within this stack. i thought about taking aniracetam instead of noopept. But to me it seems like the catalyst for a great sprint and lifting workout. I have taken RPM, Drive and Neovar before and it worked great but dosing neovar along side drive was a bit too many pills per day for me. With noopept and ALCAR i can easily dissolve the caps in water, which I could not do with Neovar. Plus the Neovar lacked Beta-Alanine which i felt it needed.

NORTH ADAMS -- A city man already indicted on a slew of burglary charges was arrested again Tuesday night by city police for allegedly trying to steal copper from a Church Street apartment complex.
Richard C. Jones III, 28, of Adams Street, is being held at Berkshire County Jail & House of Correction on $25,000 bail and $250,000 surety on charges of breaking and entering a building at night for a felony, malicious destruction of property over $250 and possession of a burglarious instrument.
On June 13, 2012, Jones was arraigned on more than a dozen burglary and a dozen larceny counts in Berkshire Superior Court for allegedly stealing thousands of dollars worth of laptops from Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts and Williams College dormitories, a local business and several homes. He was released on personal recognizance by Judge Mary Lou Rup.
Tuesday, police arrested a fleeing Jones after arriving at a burglary in progress at 116 Church St., according to police reports.
The burglary had been called in by building owner Franklin Perras, who noticed porch lights he'd left on were turned off and heard banging in the basement upon entry at roughly 6 p.m.
The suspect fled out the back door when officers Jonathan Beaudreau, Zachary Wood and Sgt. James Burdick arrived, prompting Wood to request backup from a Massachusetts State Police K-9 unit while Beaudreau gave chase.
Police say they were able to identify Jones as the perpetrator by sight and, setting up a perimeter on East Main and Pleasant streets, located him outside Arnold Place shortly after.
Copper piping was the burglar's target. Bolt cutters, a hacksaw and thousands of dollars worth of damage to pipes were found in the basement of the apartment complex.
Police say Jones confessed to attempting to burglarize the complex in a later interview with North Adams Police detectives.
The four-story brick-and-wood building comprises four apartments and a common basement area. Perras said a rehabilitation of the building had just been completed and it was ready to accept tenants before the break-in.
Jones was arraigned in Northern Berkshire District Court on the most recent charges this week with a pretrial date set for Feb. 6.
Clerk Magistrate Timothy Morey said it's yet to be decided whether these new charges against Jones will be pursued at the district level or added to the existing superior court charges.
Jones was one of four arrested in connection with the Williamstown and North Adams break-ins of last year, taking place between Feb. 24 and March 9, 2012.
Joseph Pini of North Adams -- the alleged organizer of the crimes -- is currently being held in jail on $40,000 bail. Michael J. Mitchell and Lance C. Latimer, of Williamstown and North Adams, respectively, were charged in Berkshire Superior Court and released on personal recognizance. They are due back in court sometime this year. All men pleaded not guilty.
