Facebook: Friend, or Frenemy?
ROSE Blog: Rikki's Open Source Exchange
Last week Ubuntu User, in partnership with The World Company, provided live streaming from the Free State Social in Lawrence, Kansas. This first-time event was a huge success – the tickets sold out, people participated remotely via live stream, and the speakers provided a nice mix of expertise.
My favorite talk was Gowalla co-founder and CEO Scott Raymond's Location-Based Social Networks. (Did you know that Scott used to live here in Lawrence, Kansas? Now you know.)
I wasn't familiar with Gowalla before Scott's session, but now Gowalla is available for the Blackberry so I plan to give it a spin. At the end of Scott's talk, he took some audience questions. One audience member asked Scott about kids and Gowalla, and Scott answered that they aren't marketing the app for use by minors because of the privacy and safety issues involved. I like that Gowalla guy already.
Meanwhile, back on the farmville, Facebook doesn't seem to be taking anyone's privacy into consideration.
Over the past couple of weeks there's been lot of discussion online about Facebook's handling of user-provided information. Frankly, I'm worried. I double-checked my own settings and was disappointed to see that information I thought only my friends could see was just hanging out there in the e-breeze. Then when I tried to restrict that information, I had to use documentation provided by other Facebook users instead of information supplied by Facebook.
Then I checked my 13-year-old daughter's information. She assured me that her information was private and only her friends could see it. She was surprised when we checked her account and found that a lot of her information was hanging out there in the e-breeze, too.
What does Facebook say about their privacy policy? "Privacy is built around a few key ideas: You should have control over what you share. It should be easy to find and connect with friends. Your privacy settings should be simple and easy to understand." Perhaps they'll update this page soon because it looks like they forgot it existed.
A day or two after I'd discovered how unprivate our private accounts were, I saw a post from another smart cookie who was also shocked by Facebook's loose lips. Carla Schroder eloquently summed up the situation:
"WTF. Facebook is following me all over the web. For example, on CNN.com it shows a couple of my FB threads under 'Friends's Activity.' I thought I turned all that crap off!"
Soon after that post Carla provided this link: How to Opt Out of Facebook's Instant Personalization.
If you're going to 'like' anything on Facebook right now, I suggest you start with the EFF page. Today they posted a link to an article written by their former intern, Ruben Rodrigues, Facebook's Anti-Privacy Monopoly.
Ruben writes, "The real reason Facebook's been clawing back user control over private information, and exposing more and more user info to third parties, isn't because of some grand shift in social norms or the the conceptualization of online privacy. Rather, it's simply the result of what happens when a company develops a natural monopoly due to network effects: all of a sudden they can charge more without offering additional benefits. In this case, that 'charging' occurs by extracting more value (your private info) from users without offering additional desired benefits or services." (Check out his entire article and look for more from Ruben in the upcoming book The Offensive Internet.)
For now, I'm not deleting my Facebook page – it's been a great way for me to connect with friends and family and with many of the great people I meet at industry events or who I chat with or follow online. I just hope that people stay aware of how the information they've trusted to Facebook is being used.
Perhaps you, like me, will still want to be friends with Facebook. But instead of sharing private information with Facebook like you would with your best friend, maybe you'll want to step back a little and reconsider: Facebook might be your best frenemy.
Frenemy Indeed!Agreed! Unfortunately, I don't think FB really cares about our privacy. WE all need to be more involved if we want to see them behave differently. Precisely why I support the EFF and EPIC.

This new cicada could be pretty potent, like the Raven, but without the ECM. With 4 lasers and 2 missile hard points, you could lay out 2 streaks, 4 medium lasers, high speed, and lay out a world of hurt. Even without ECM, this looks like a good mech.--A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have. -MLK
Should be pretty solid. High speed, VERY good torso twist (125 deg each dir w/out tweaks/basic/etc)?!, reasonable payload, good armor.
It can be a mean hitter at that speed for sure... but I really hate that chassis. Way too easy to render it useless, I find.
I've seen some nasty cicadas. Barring the absolutely trashy trial mech, that is.
is this one of those Text RPG games you guys been thinking about trying?you guys talk a lot about it, but i see no screen captures!
It can be a mean hitter at that speed for sure... but I really hate that chassis. Way too easy to render it useless, I find.
I didn't pay attention if the cicadas I was hitting were trial or not... but I find their legs so easy to hit, and they would fall off way too quick.
You're in the wrong thread.
I do have to admit that I played 2 or 3 hours of MWO this weekend. I played 6 - 9 hrs of PoE.Its pretty freaking amazing. The passive tree and the skills are crazy deep!
I guess I'll give the Cicada a try once I'm done decking out the Spider. Their speed is still good, so I'll see how they actually feel in combat (when it's not a trial one.)Edit: Plus I still need to try that fast mech with an AC20 thing. The Cicada should work better for that than a Raven, anyway.
3m variant does, but it's ballistic and energy hardpoints. Only good variants I've seen are 4xMPL, 4XML, and 4xSL/1xLBXAC10
they're good as sniper and recon mechs but they're tough to pilot through anything else
No, you guys are playing the wrong game.
Don't soil this thread by bringing in that pay2notplay game.
Theres no currancy to speak of. The only thing of value are items that allow you to change gear. No AH. A crazy passive tree. A skill system that is sooooooooo deep I can't even begin.Srsly look it up if dungeon crawlers intrest you at all.

"New User Controls and Joystick ImprovementsPlayers will now have more options with regards to how they pilot their BattleMechs. Several new control systems and improvement have been added including Throttle Decay (gas pedal vs set throttle), Arm Lock to torso, Set Point Throttle (10-100% throttle values in 10% increments), Face Torso, and Joystick Analog turning. Player will also be able to customize their key bindings via the Pause Menu during matches."I am going to be very happy when that patch hits. All that's missing is a reverse throttle and then I can have some real fun.
Dude. That's great but just wait. We're FINALLY GETTING CONSUMABLES! WOO! GXP WASTING TIME.... airstrikes? HELLLL yeah.
Consumables will use CBills though! So I'll avoid it mostly... I first need to get all my Jenners mastered, and that'll cost too many Cbills as is.
I'm sitting on 25m Cbills. Gonna use those to feel more commander-y by dropping artillery on enemy soldiers.
dupe post X_X
lol... I am sitting at about 700 CBills right now I'm also very happy for the training grounds. I've been meaning to rebind my controls to be able to completely control the whole mech with my mouse only, but I didn't want to screw around during matches on getting used to that.Now I'll finally be able to pull it off.
Take the PoE discussion to the appropriate thread.kthxby
buy a death Knell it's like a 4ml Jenner only as a commando and play it for a weekend you'll have lots o cbills in no time

Most people know that the divorce rate in the U.S. has elevated throughout the years and the topic is no longer taboo. According to divorcerate.org, 41 percent of first marriages end in divorce. Divorce has become somewhat of a norm in America – last Wednesday, I was watching an episode of "Modern Family," and a friend of characters Cam and Mitchell were having second thoughts about marriage. When she came to a conclusion, she said, "I'm going to marry him. What's the worst that can happen? I get a divorce. People do it all of the time." She is absolutely right; people know that if their marriage comes to an end they won't be condemned by society, these days you might even be invited to celebrate a divorce at a divorce party. If divorce is such a common topic, why do people get so wrapped up in the divorces of celebrities?
When a celebrity gets a divorce, it becomes a media circus, everyone wants an interview, and people want to know who is to blame. In some cases, people want to know who is going to get the children. These divorces become the topic of discussion every time you turn on the television, go online, read a magazine or listen to the radio weeks after the word gets out. Sometimes the divorce proceedings outlast the length of the marriages. It goes to show that viewers love to see the imperfection of these assumed to be, by their fans, "perfect" people.
I personally am not always as surprised as others when a celebrity couple breaks up or gets a divorce. People need to understand that celebs marry other celebs, and most often, they have a lot going on. They are both working on their career and may not have time to spend with one another like a regular married couple. They work more than the average weekly hours that most people work, and sometimes the relationships just don't work out.
I also think that celebs have a higher level of temptation than the average person. People are throwing themselves at these celebrities on a daily basis and sometimes people slip up. I'm not saying infidelity is right but I am saying that it is the reality of the situation.
In my opinion, people feel a sense of entitlement when it comes to knowing the details of a celebrity's life, especially those who have reality television shows and interact with their fans and followers through Twitter. Because these celebs let viewers into certain aspects of their lives through reality television, viewers expect to know anything they want to know about that celeb. At the end of the day these people are just people trying to live life the same way we are; the only difference is that the world isn't watching our every move and when we slip up our problems aren't magnified. But I do think it would help if celebs didn't broadcast their personal lives on television and social media, sometimes the lines can become blurry when it comes to the reality and fantasy of celebrity lives.

Future of Computing Arrives: Smartphone-Laptop Combo
The Motorola Atrix 4G smartphone and Lapdock.
CREDIT: Motorola
The future of computing just arrived, and short of plugging a computer chip right into your brain, it is perhaps the most promising innovation since the smartphone, with all due respect to the iPad.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work very well. Yet.
The Motorola Atrix 4G is a dream phone, with a big screen and a superfast dual-core processor that rivals some low-end computers, such as netbooks. What's brilliant is that it docks to a laptop that has no brains: The smartphone's processor runs the laptop's screen and keyboard. What you see on the phone, you see on the laptop when you dock the phone. And the laptop's innards, devoid of any brains, are loaded up with battery life — around 10 hours. What's more, the laptop charges the phone during docking.
Motorola calls the laptop a Lapdock . History will sort out what this new class of gadget gets called. But history-making it may well be.
This first go at a one-device-fits-all phone/computer points to a future when we won't need a desktop at home, a laptop for travel, a tablet computer for who-knows-exactly what (the iPad does not replace a phone, nor does it yet replace a laptop for many tasks), and smartphone, each running different software and holding different version of important files that requires too much synching.
In combination with the rise in cloud computing — the ability to store your files "out there" — a powerful, fast, compact smartphone/Laptop will the only setup many people need.
Too bad Motorola didn't deliver on the promise with the Atrix 4G.
The Android-based phone is great, writes David Pogue in the New York Times, but the rest of the setup has too many glitches and limitations to be considered a serious laptop replacement. One problem is that it depends on AT&T's network to get online. Enough said. Plus, the Lapdock's clicker is ineffective, making scrolling difficult. "It's spectacularly awkward," Pogue writes. That's a showstopper for anyone who needs to edit MS Word files or do any other real work.
But Pogue is spot one when he says this is a "really, really brilliant idea." And we can't wait until Motorola (or Apple?) gets the kinks worked out. Then we can finally enjoy the future of computing, and start discussing that chip-brain implant.

23rd Oct: It's time for the second TV Tropes Halloween Avatar Contest, theme: cute monsters! Details and voting here.
main index
There's always an Arquillian Battle Cruiser, or a Corillian Death Ray, or an intergalactic plague that is about to wipe out all life on this miserable little planet, and the only way these people can get on with their happy lives is that they DO. NOT. KNOW ABOUT IT!So, the hero has found the giant factory belonging to the Big Bad. He enters with his True Companions and finds weapons that could kill thousands or maybe even millions, all built by and being built by the locals. While the hero believes that the locals all knew about the Big Bad's plan and were helping him willingly, a few questions from The Heart clears up the matter- the locals simply think the weapons are harmless machinery that will be used for building houses and/or farming. This trope describes situations where somebody uses someone to make or do something by lying about what exactly it is that they're doing, or assuring them that it's for the greater good. It could be something as simple as stealing plans or moving an item to another location, or something major, like building a Doomsday Device or breaching a boundary- if the Big Bad plays on their ignorance to make them do something; it's this. This can often result in a Heel-Face Turn or My God, What Have I Done?. See also Evil Plan, Nice Job Breaking It, Hero, Awful Truth, Redemption Equals Death and Ambiguous Innocence. Not to be confused with While Rome Burns, when everything is going horribly wrong but everyone responds to it with denial.

True Meaning Of The Swirl Symbol
The design of the swirl pattern is based on the symbolism of the spiral pattern. This swirl pattern has long been used as the representation of constants movement and change. On a personal level, it can represent the internal growth of a person throughout life, and gain new perspectives. A person is constantly changing; spiraling down life's many roads. A swirl of activity here sends them left instead of right. It has also been used to describe the movement of the universe, and archaeologists think this was its original meaning. Ancients Celts used it to map the progress of the stars during an eclipse. We find it remains constant in our modern lives as well, perhaps a hold over of ancient memories used to remind us of our need to adapt constantly and not remain stagnant. Look into your coffee cup where the clerk has just placed a swirl of cream, it circles in upon itself right in front of our eyes. It is usually the first image a creative young child draws, the act of creating this symbol is relaxing and enthralling to anyone, not just the child. Try it yourself, and see how it mesmerizes you. We love to display it on our body as body art, and on our clothing. It is one of the truly unique symbols that represent both man and woman. When displayed as a piece of jewelry, it is beautiful, like this Silver Swirl Pendant, which can be found in our pendants and chains collection. For the man, there are beautiful sterling silver cufflinks that can accompany it. Show the world you believe you are evolving constantly, display this beautiful jewelry and declare your belief that change is needed to grow into who you are.

HAVING BEEN A NURSE for over 25 years, I sometimes think I've seen it all and heard it all. Yet I still remember the process of learning how to be a nurse. There were always so many questions to be answered. Is the patient in pain? Does the patient have bowel sounds? Clear breath sounds? Is it time for the patient's medications? Has my patient ambulated? We learned exactly what to do.
In the perfect world of school, we learned that the answers to our questions are black or white, yes or no. But the real world shows us that along with black-and-white answers are some that can't be easily pigeonholed. These answers fall between the black and the white. They are, in fact, different shades of gray.
These shades of gray have more to do with the emotional side of nursing. As nurses, we're educated to assess whether our patients are in pain. Over time, we learn to determine whether it's strictly physical pain or whether it includes elements of emotional and psychological pain. We broaden our ability to assess our patients' total needs, ultimately helping to develop our nursing intuition. It's a quality not taught in nursing school-it's learned in the real world, in the hands-on practice of nursing.
My first job as a new grad was in the neonatal ICU at a large hospital. My first shift saw six admissions with very little time for orientation. The experienced nurse I worked with kept telling me, "Watch me and do what I do." My problem was that before that day, I'd rarely even held a baby, much less weighed, bathed, assessed, and fed one! I remember my hands shaking so badly I couldn't open a bottle of formula.
Eventually, my skills sharpened and my intuition and knowledge broadened. I became comfortable working with newborns and developed the ability to assess and meet their needs. I also realized that not only were the infants my patients, but their parents and families were too. I sensed which of these critically ill little ones in the ICU had given up the long and difficult fight, and I'd speak words of encouragement to them and their parents. I understood which parents wanted or needed to talk just by the look in their eyes. I learned when to speak up and when to just listen.
As time goes on, we learn there's no one right or simple answer to some of the questions we ask about our patients. As we learn more about them, we start to understand the intricacies of their needs. Not just their physical needs, but those emotional, psychological, and spiritual needs that must be met before they can completely heal.
Our skills are sharpened, our intuition and knowledge broadened, and our understanding deepened. We acknowledge the education and training we received from coworkers and mentors. We seek out resources to help us resolve challenges or conflicts we can't solve on our own. We look back at our beginnings and realize our passion for nursing has grown and developed and changed. Along the way, we've become the experts, the ones who can see those many shades of gray.

Smile, you're on social media! -
Being friendly and 'nice' on social media is a good way to create conversations and to build up your following. Yes, there are some social profiles, usually satirical, that play on the bad tempered, grumpy or rude approach. Just look at the popularity of the excellent @sh*tmydadsays on Twitter.But if you are a brand or business a 'nice' approach should be your preferred option.
With his fearsome reputation and feisty language, you maybe be surprised to discover that Gordon Ramsay is actually a 'nice' guy on Twitter. Take a look at one of his tweets, which even includes a Gordon kiss!
Hi guys, something for the weekend. G x pic.twitter.com/yhYHSG0vf0
— Gordon Ramsay (@GordonRamsay) July 12, 2013
So how do you be nice like Gordon?
Well I wouldn't overdo the kissing.
Offering advice, answering questions or helping others with issues relevant to your business is a good start. For example, with Muddywall being a social media business, we are often asked which management tools are best to use. Instead of grumpily replying, "we're not telling you that, you should use our services", we offer a couple of recommendations. Takes a couple of minutes to do and helps create dialogue with a social media user who potentially could become a future customer. And remember, as social media is in the public domain, others will see you being helpful- an excellent way to develop a positive brand image. Just for the record, I would recommend Hootsuite as a tool for social media management
Social media being in the public domain is something many social media users forget, especially when becoming embroiled in a social discussion with a disgruntled customer. I'm sure we've all experienced this at some stage in our social media lives- that moment when, for example, an opinionated so-and-so with an over-inflated ego decides to offer their view in the comments section of your latest Facebook post. You're fuming at their naivety but what do you do. Well, my advice is to bite your lip (not literally), take a deep breath, thank them for their comment and walk away.
Getting lured in a slagging match on social media may make you feel better but looks terrible to all those not involved but who can still can read your comments. Think of social media as a busy street. Have you experienced that moment when two people start having a very public argument? Soon a large space appears around the arguing couple as uncomfortable passers-by tried to avoid the awkward situation. The same can happen to your social media profile as your followers begin to give it a wide berth. And even if you have the satisfaction of winning the argument, the damage you do to you and your brand's image will prove difficult to recover.
Keep smiling!
Our mantra at Muddywall for building social communities around a brand is that you need to start with creating conversations. A sure-fire way of doing this is by being friendly, helpful and approachable, basically creating a social image that people are willing to engage with. On some not-so-good days you may need to employ your best acting skills, especially when your boss is on your back for not meeting the defined goals or your carefully managed social media profiles are being spammed with comments from people recommending the latest weight loss drug.
"Take a deep breath, keep calm, smile and carry on."
I've heard of people in telesales being told to smile when speaking on the phone. Although they can't see the other person, the smile comes across in the tone of the telemarketer's voice.
The same goes for social media. Try smiling when writing your updates. With your friendly and approachable manner, you'll soon be meeting and beating those social media goals, and be well on the way to building an engaged social media community around your brand.

- CaperDined on 10/22/2014I had the best cod I've ever eaten!! Keep up the good work on fish!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not as Good as Previous Visitmole555Dined on 10/18/2014We went to Bittersweet to celebrate my wife's birthday, and were hoping it would be a nice quiet evening, since that was our experience on a previous visit. This time, however, the noise level was so high that we could barely hear each other talk, and while the service was efficient, it was not very "personable" in that the waitress didn't really have much to offer as far as making our experience special. I am also suspicious when we ask for recommendations, and she only recommends the most expensive items, from apps to wine to entrees.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 10/18/2014The waitstaff was very ambivalent. I checked menu on the website earlier that day and was looking forward to an item I found. It wasn't on the menu at the restaurant. When I asked the waitress about it, she said that the menu changes weekly in a very curt manor. The spicey tuna rolls were tiny. The whole fish was good but could use a whole more veggies. Not impressed and will never go back.
- localboyDined on 10/18/2014Artistic presentation with delicious results. Architectural American cuisine with a European twist. We were there on Saturday night, which was bustling, but the food and service were spot on. Nice drink menu that skirts the ordinary.Special Features:
- Food and service excellentMervlapinDined on 10/17/2014Duric pork was fresh, juicy and tender. My wife had cod also fresh and moist. Service was attentive and helpful. Prices were fair.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice FindsmeddingVIPDined on 10/17/2014Innovative menus. Enjoyed our dinner. First visit. We will be back. Next time with friends.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bittersweet treatOpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 10/16/2014Attentive and knowledgable wait staff. Beautiful, delicious food. Best dessert I've had in a long time- artistically plated , not too sweet with a satisfying blend of textures and flavors.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- CreativehezekiahVIPDined on 10/11/2014Try the deconstructed coq au vin. Superb! Ambiance was a little loud on a full-house Saturday night but manageable. Try this place.Special Features:
- Good food, but very louddellDined on 10/11/2014All of the food was good (the one dish that we didn't love was the rabbit), but it was quite loud (6:30 PM on a Saturday) and 2 members of our party couldn't hear the waitress and the other people in our party. Great service and cute spot, but tough for anyone who doesn't tolerate noise well.Special Features:
- Wonderful except for the noiseAlyce1VIPDined on 10/10/2014Our food was scrumptious as it has been for each visit to Bittersweet. Service was also exemplary. We would dine here more frequently but for the noise level which was disconcertingly loud.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect place to bring your dateFrancoisDined on 10/10/2014My girl friend and I enjoyed Bittersweet very much! She had the pork that was prepared to a perfect medium. The presentation was beautiful and also very tasty. I enjoyed the whole fish very much as well. Service was very knowledgeable, kind, and prompt with our requests. We will definitely return.Special Features:
- LovelyOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 10/8/2014We went for our anniversary dinner and were pleasantly surprised. The servers were all very friendly. The cocktails were yummy and the food extraordinary! Our only disappointment were the portion sizes were a little on the small side, especially for the price. My husband loved the pork chops and wanted more.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderfulkym2Dined on 10/7/2014We loved everything we ordered. Our server was knowledgable and made fantastic recommendations.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just OKeggplant712Dined on 10/4/2014I noted in the reservation (made a week ahead) that my husband and I were celebrating a special occasion, in hopes of having a nice table. Instead, we were jammed up against a wall in a high-traffic zone in the dining room. Service was inattentive and poorly timed. The food was good, not great - presentations were beautiful, but the flavors didn't wow us by any stretch, and the wine list was slim.
- Best food in denverOutstandinDined on 10/4/2014Definitely the best food in denver. Creative and very delicious.Special Features:
- ExcellentKrisVIPDined on 10/3/2014My husband and I had a great dinner at Bittersweet, our first visit there. Appetizers of spicy tuna roll (very different) and sausage were very good. Entrees of coq au vin and the pork. Pork was very generous and both were quite good. House-made bread was excellent! Desserts and coffee made for a really great dinner, and Rachel's attentive service made it a wonderful evening!Special Features:
- Wonderful experience.JoJoTDined on 10/2/2014I experienced Bittersweet for the first time and brought along my brother-in-law and his wife who are both foodies and knowledgeable wine enthusiasts. The service was excellent. We did not want for anything at anytime and our waitress was very knowledgeable about the wine list. The food was very well executed....great quality and interesting twists to the Rabbit, Duroc Pork and the Coq Au Vin. I usually like escargot the traditional way with a lot of butter and garlic but Bittersweets' escargot was excellent. The apple dessert with the butterscotch ice cream was not quite what I was expecting...cake a little dry for me. Overall, I would highly recommend Bittersweet for foodies and wine enthusiasts.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent, inventive cuisineljljrichVIPDined on 10/1/2014Bittersweet is serving the most inventive and creative food in the Denver area. There is a modernist approach in both preparation and presentation. It is obvious that a lot of thought and time have gone into each plate, and the dishes are worth all the effort. They are beautiful and delicious. The wine list is interesting and priceworthy. The staff is welcoming and helpful. We love this place.Special Features:
- Great placeOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/27/2014Our first time and I thought the food, service and over all ambiance were perfect.Special Features:
- Celebration at bittersweetOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/19/2014The food and drinks were delicious. Our waitress was very attentive and had great recommendations. Our only bad part was the s'more dessert it tasted way too smoky. But we had it removed from theSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BobMDined on 9/6/2014First, a lament. Why can't better restaurants stock Tanqueray10 gin? The substitute was Jackalope. Decent, just not the same. Birthday dinner. My wife had the buffalo mozzarella ravioli. It was all about the broth which was excellent. I had the charcuterie tray. Two of the salamis were very similar. One of the cheese was gouda which wasn't very interesting. My wife had the scallop dinner. It was picture worthy and very tasty. I had the wild boar. It was cooked to well done which was a little surprising. I guess it was done for food safety. The accompanying risotto was very good. We finished with Smores. Very unique with the hickory smoke. All in all, a good night out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Plan on going back.JohnDined on 9/5/2014I've driven by this restaurant many times and had never tried it - was I missing out. Kind of a neighborhood location but easy to find. Fun list of beers and a decent wine list (not huge). I had the rock fish and my wife had scallops. Both were excellent. Nice portion size - not too big, not too small. Limited dessert choices but what we had was excellent. Definitely plan on going back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OverratedFoodie781Dined on 8/16/2014I've heard great things about Bittersweet & saw much of the good I've heard about during my visit. Service was great; the mood was nice but it was so hot in the restaurant. Prices were a bit high for the amount of food (& the fact they pull much of their ingredients from the gardens outside- really cool but that should show in pricing). My scallops were cooked perfectly but pulled down by salty greens & a heavy sauce- each of which were really good on their own but took away from the delicacy of the scallops. This will strictly be a special occasion place- after I visit a few more on my list :)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not worth the hypeDisappointedVIPDined on 8/16/2014Been wanting to go for a long time. Food was ok, but definitely not worth all of the hype leading up to our meal. Server was knowledgeable and encouraging of our choices but food was bland.
- New favorite findKbartDined on 8/15/2014I was very excited to have finally been able the dine at bittersweet after hearing such great things. Food was of good quality and service was outstandingly. Really enjoyed my experience and will be going backSpecial Features:
- OverratedNotalwaysacriticDined on 8/15/2014Service was great. However, the food itself was bland. My bacon wrapped rockfish was dry(over cooked) and the combination was like eating smoked oysters. My wife's chicken and potatoes was also bland and once again the chicken was on the dry side. The pork belly starter was good but the portion was tiny. The dessert was basically smores in a jar which was the most creative and tasty of all of our dishes. The small dining area on the north side was incredibly loud and we are in our 30s, so it's not an old folks problem. The plating of the food and the ambiance and the wine selection give the feel of a top end and romantic restaurant. But, be sure to drink a lot of wine to compensate for bad entrées and hearing loss.
- Unbelievable food!RebrebDined on 8/14/2014We enjoyed a dinner at bittersweet two nights ago, and the food was spot on. The scallop dish was easily the best scallops I've ever had. The only issue was the service was a little slow. Otherwise friendly and knowledgeable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- dinner42Dined on 8/14/2014Great food. Great bottle of wine. Very good service. Thank youSpecial Features:
- OutstandingLukenessVIPDined on 8/13/2014Fascinating combinations of flavors and textures make Bittersweet a great experience.Special Features:
- One of the best restaurantsOutstandinDined on 8/13/2014Definitely one of the most creative and delicious restaurants in denver. Excellent and knowledgeable waitstaff. Fabulous food. Drinks are delicious and deceptively strong.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Aptly namedBeenaroundDined on 8/12/2014The venue is charming and the staff respectfully attentive. You will enjoy the setting and your evening. The food was fresh, plentiful and creative, but the addition of garlic and bacon on one dish was a bit overdone, eclipsing the natural flavor of the fresh ingredients.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved it!DinerVIPDined on 8/9/2014I have wanted to go to Bittersweet for months, and finally, we went on a last-minute Open Table reservation. The ambiance of the space is lovely - especially the patios. We did eat inside because of the sun, but the doors were open, so it was pleasant. The escargot was great - my husband actually ate a few and liked them. He loved his salmon, and I tried the wild boar (a little tough). The sauces are fabulous. Be sure and try the s'mores for dessert. Very inventive and fabulous flavor. We'll be back - definitely in my top 2 restaurants in Denver.Special Features:
- 3rd Year and CountingOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/9/2014My wife and I come here every year to celebrate our anniversary, and various other special occasions and we've never had a bad experience. This year we got a cheese plate appetizer which was perfectly paired. I'm a huge parmesean fan though, and I thought the parm presented on this particular plate was a little lacking. That was my only complaint of the evening however. The wine - a wonderful French Red - was divine, and went well with my perfectly cooked wild boar main course. This was my first time having wild boar, and hopefully will not be my last! My wife had the two course vegetable dinner, which looked incredible, and she couldn't stop raving about. If you haven't gone to Bittersweet, do so as soon as possible!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Even more wonderful than usualtefinVIPDined on 8/7/2014We have been to this restaurant many times and each time is a treat. The summer menu is a memorable ensemble of dishes featuring fresh produce and locally-sourced meat. Especially noteworthy this time: wild boar.Special Features:
- Solid and interestingDenvergirlDined on 8/5/2014The appetizers were the best part of our meal for four people. The escargot was really top notch, the sweetbreads, pork belly were fun and tasty, bread out of this world. For dinner, three fish and I got the pork. Meat was the main event and the boar I had was tasty, but the sides withit, mini amount of green with tasty but small portion of some sort of grain felt like it needed a bit of root veggie to balance big chunk of meat. Same with fish dishes. I expected stronger presence of veggies to the dishes, instead of all sorts of sauce dribbles on every dish
- livetoeatDined on 8/2/2014We went early and the noise of the street was a little prominent; hence the ambience rating. But the service was absolutely first rate - our waitress was attentive without being pushy and read our needs very well. The food was good but shy of great. The barley with the wild boar was really outstanding. The rockfish had great flavor, too and was cooked to perfection.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DelishDeverdecoratorVIPDined on 8/2/2014Menu is small, but the food was good. Escargot was an excellent, non-traditional, preparation and may have been the best I have had. Scallops were also very good. My husband ordered the sweet breads and wild boar which were also very well prepared. Our server was friendly and attentive and helped us make a great wine selection. Decor was a little lacking....we sat in the dining room closest to Alemeda.
- Absolutely WOWWadePerryVIPDined on 8/2/2014My wife and I were introduced to Bittersweet by our dear friends, Julie and Andrew. Julie has been an advocate for organic healthy fare for many years. Everything on the menu was a viable option and decision making was challenged with so many incredible choices. The charcuterie was incredible. The wild boar was out of this world and the rockfish was a dish to make you linger on every bite. Do not get me started on dessert. None of this is surprising as they put their 600 sq ft organic garden to great use. This is our new "go-to" restaurant.Special Features:
- Brilliant Preparation!!!PRECSODined on 8/1/2014Delightful neighborhood gem! I took a friend there who doesn't "get out" much. Wanted to show her what great food really is. My favorite dish was the escargot ravioli - by far! Bittersweet was a great find and I will definitely dine there again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Unreal...StephanDined on 8/1/2014This place is amazing. Definitely one of our new favorite places in Denver!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

I don't feel like writing anything in here today, I just want to listen to this song instead.
The large Polish man in the silver chain that was working the counter at the Polish liquor store on the corner had an enormous coke-pinky. We came to a mutual understanding based on trust and respect. Commerce was made. And then we got drunk.
When you wake up on the other side of the room you fell asleep on and you're not wearing any clothes even though you know you fell asleep in them you can tell it's going to be a good Thanksgiving Day.
Last night I played Catchphrase and my word was "Unwanted". The first clue I thought of was "A black person in the south in the 70s".
We did not get the point, but everyone agreed it was a very good hint.
I don't get sick too often, but when I do my body goes all out. I had a number of fever dreams last night (though, to be fair, Keith Richards from the past and Keith Richards from the present could've been hanging out on the foot of my bed).
I don't remember all of them, but here are my two favorites. Sticking with the Keith Richards theme, I distinctly remember traveling back in time to the late 60's and writing/recording a secret Rolling Stones record similar in style to Their Satanic Majesties Request, pretty sure Brian Jones was dead at the time.
In another one I was dying, in a hospital bed, on a plane. I was also Ted Mosby. And my doctor was Aretha Franklin, who wanted to prove to her colleagues that she deserved their R-E-S-P-E-C-T. There was a musical number. Pretty sure it kicked ass.
If you had to stab yourself, what would you use and where would you do it?
I'd take a fork and stab myself in the ass. I don't know why, but it's just seems like that would be the thing to do.
Lost a bag of drugs last night
woke up with a blood soaked hand
this must be what Keith Richards felt like
Where me and a few folks were riding around in a speedboat. My friend Jamie kept trying to get me to sit in my seat backwards, but it was uncomfortable and I didn't. When we all got off the boat, Jamie, Terry, Ben Gorski, and myself started sneaking through people's backyards. Eventually we were found out and had to fight off an army of Nazis, naturally when this occurred we took to the air. I had trouble flying, but managed to climb up onto one of the large floating cubes the action was taking place on.
That;s about it.
Drunk on tequila dregs
Stoned on resin
Lying on the cold basement floor listening to Moonlight Mile over and over
Thinking about where I had hoped to be by this time
And where I expected to be
And how I've fallen short of both almost all across the board (almost)
I guess that's how most years go?
You cats get gypped (I just realized that's a racial jab at Roma folks, gypped)
I save the good stuff for my notebooks, and all you get is this tripe
Serves me right that this is what you should think of me, yes?
It's very tiring.
I'm sorry, tiresome. Very tiresome.
I guess it's what you might call a "bad mood". Yeah.
The guy that invented the turn signal has to be really disappointed.

Lawmakers on Capitol Hill are tussling over budget proposals that would change Medicare and/or reduce the budget deficit.
The Hill: Ways And Means Wades Into Controversial Medicare Proposals
The House Ways and Means Committee's health panel will hold a hearing next week on proposals to at least partially privatize Medicare -- proposals that landed with a thud just a year ago. Democrats have hammered the Medicare plans championed by Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), and his budget outline last year helped bolster Democrats' hopes of winning back the House majority. Establishment Republicans were also wary of the idea last year, warning against moving forward with Ryan's plan (Baker, 4/20).
The Hill: Analysis Says Ryan Plan Would Have Cost States $500 Billion Over Past Decade
States would have lost more than $500 billion over the past decade if Rep. Paul Ryan's (R-Wis.) proposed Medicaid cuts had been in place, the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities said Friday. ... CBPP tried to demonstrate the magnitude of Ryan's proposal by calculating how much money states would have lost if Ryan's proposal had taken effect in 2001. The hypothetical provides 10 years of real spending data, rather than estimates (Baker, 4/20).
Modern Healthcare: Dueling Budget Plans
Democratic and Republican lawmakers laid out conflicting long-term markers for health care spending on Capitol Hill last week as policymakers continue to battle over the federal deficit and government spending. Sen. Kent Conrad (D-N.D.), chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, offered a draft budget that was largely based on the deficit-reduction commission appointed by President Barack Obama. The measure was significant as the first Senate Democratic budget in four years (Daly and Zigmond, 4/21).
Meanwhile, ob-gyns are making their mark on Congress while a postal reform bill could boost health premiums for some federal workers --
Politico: Ob-Gyns Aim To Deliver On The Hill
They rush to meetings, deal with crying babies, talk about contraception and fall behind on their schedules. It's the daily schedule for a typical obstetrician and gynecologist, but also for the lawmakers who were ob-gyns before they ditched their white coats for pinstriped suits and became some of the most conservative and outspoken members of Congress (Nocera, 4/22).
The Hill: Postal Bill Could Bring Hike In Health Premiums For Federal Workers
Thousands of federal workers could see a double-digit jump in their health care premiums under a postal reform bill that is moving through the Senate. The bill would change the way postal workers get their health benefits and could have a ripple effect across the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP), which provides coverage for the federal workforce. The postal bill would lead to premium hikes of at least 10 percent in three of the largest plans in the entire FEHBP, according to an estimate that the Office of Personnel Management that was provided to congressional aides (Baker, 4/20).

I have had a real passion for cooking that was passed down by my Mother, Fern Sewell. Her kitchen was where everyone would gather to talk and share life's happenings while she kept on cooking. Mother had all the style of a true southern cook from serving a tall glass of sweet tea, fried chicken, mashed potatoes and cream gravy, and all kinds of field peas with Southern cornbread to barbecuing all kinds of meat. It wasn't uncommon for her to serve the traditional southern meal which consisted only of vegetables and served with a pan of Southern cornbread.
I grew up in the piney woods of East Texas in the 50's, and 60's. The memories of her recipes she created and cooked for me as a child, and shared with me as a young newlywed, are memories that I still have today.
These recipes are from Mother's recipe box, some of which is her originals, and some is from her friends and family. When I know for sure, I will give credit to the source.Sausage Gravy over Old Fashioned Buttered Toast

C++ operates at a lower level of abstraction than C#. In C++, you could (if you wanted to) trivially fill an array with machine code, cast it to a function and run that code (it would no longer have any amount of portability at that point).
C# compiles to a bytecode that wasn't the machine code of any processor (I say 'wasn't' because I haven't followed C# in a while; they may have built one since). C# programs are run by what is often called an interpreter even though C# runtime has always compiled to machine code on the fly. In a C++ program, the progammer has manual access to freeing memory (as well as the pointers to/within it). A C# program uses the garbage collector to take care of freeing memory (as in, C# doesn't have a 'delete' operator, just 'new').
Some people might even argue that C# could be faster because C# gets compiled on the fly, the runtime knows exactly what the best actual machine instructions are for the users exact hardware (as opposed to a C++ compiler having to target some lower denominator of CPU like no-SSE, unless you actually provide multiple binaries for users to choose from or users compile themselves).
The fact that a C++ process will never slow down, use an extra thread (or *gasp* pause) for a garbage collection is probably one of the best reasons for people who like control. I thought was going to come up with better arguments, but other than memory access and allocation, it's late and I'm drawing a blank. The runtime compiling C# bytecode on the fly takes time too, and I imagine there's a threshold of how many interprets of the function before it decides to compile.

My first MAC blush that was picked out by one of the MUA's. I have bought dozens of other blushes since then but this is still one of my favorites. I think it looks amazing on olive or tanned skin. It can look patchy if your foundation hasn't dried or if you have dry patches on your cheeks but so does every other blush. This, nars torrid, and tarte tipsy are my favorite blushes for my skin tone. its sometimes hard for me to find a lipstick to go with it since i have a lot of pinks, but not that big of a problem. i love wearing orgasm gloss with it.
My first ever MAC blush! I held off on using it because MAC is like gold in Australia (sooo. expensivvve).
So far, it's lasted aaages and the colour is the perfect 'natural flush' for my fair skin! I think this would suit most skin tones. It has slight shimmer, nothing too overbearing though. I was most amazed by the staying power - for a product with 'sheer' in its name, I didn't expect it to wear so well. It lasted through a long shift at a fast food place with humid, sweaty, oil-vat surrounds, if that's any indication :D
And from the looks of it this was a discontinued/LE that was brought back permanently? Yay!!

This is my first blush that I acctually bought for myself. I was originally going to buy Springsheen but I was kind of intiminated because it looked so orange. So the Lady in MAC suggested Peachykeen instead. The color is very beautiful but it's hard to describe...it is like a darker peachy color with a golden sheen. It looks very natural and glowy - i love it. I see me reaching for this a lot just beacause it matches almost everything. I think everybody should have this just because it's that basic but also has that little something to make a make-up look perfect. I'd say get it youself and see how it makes you look young and healthy :)
I really like this blush! I'm NC20-25 naturally (without a tan), but I spray tan in the spring and summer, so my skintone actually varies quite a bit season to season. As others have said, it's a mix between pink and peach, but I think it leans more strongly toward a reddish pink. Because of that, it does look better on me when I'm tan, but I can use it when I'm pale as well as long as I use a very light hand. That said, it is easy to build it up too much very quickly, so I always start light and add more if necessary (usually I don't need to). It looks natural and pretty, and it isn't overly shimmery, which is a plus for me.
I do like Peachykeen, it's not my most favourite MAC blush but i still find myself using it! It's a mix between coral and pink with shimmer. It's a very flattering colour i find sometimes coralish blushes look abit muddy but this certainly doesn't! <3
I just purchased this before the holidays and all I can say is wow. I've always had success with MAC blushes, but this one is amazing on my NC-40 skin. This will definitely be my go-to peach toned blush.
I bought this blush after the SA applied it on me. The look is natural but upon close look or under strong light, it has a very subtle shimmer. It gives me the glow I want without an over powering color. it can last quite long and it is suitable to wear on a daily basis. It is more coral like than pink on my Asian skin that has a warm undertone. I enjoyed this color alot.
This has been my go to blush for about 5 years now, I absolutely love love love it and use it pretty much everyday. I did try to switch to NARS orgasm, just to see what all the fuss was about, liked it, but came straight back to Peachykeen. Looks great on my skin tone and stays put all day, provides a nice subtle shimmer which doesn't look too overkill. I'm more a fan of the matte look but I like the shimmer that this blush offers and the gorgeous baby peach colour is super flattering. I can see myself using this for the rest of my life :)
This is my all time favorite blush. Its a very pretty pinky coral color with just the right mix of coral and bronze. I think of it as a more coral version of Nars Orgasm. For a sheer blush its very pigmented and very buildable. It has a light shimmer to but no glitter so those with enlarged pores need not worry it doesn't highlight them at all. I reach for this blush everyday. They color is very nice on my NC35 skin and I love how it gives me a nice summer glow.

I had never gotten a Mac "makeover" until we went on vacation and thought - what the hell? I am an NC25 (now I know!) and generally wear cooler colors. My MAC sales person (and damned if I can remember here name - she was fabulous), suggested this blush to me. I balked, she persisted, I relented. I am so glad I did. This warms me up quite nicely, pairs very well with Viva Glam V and is absolutely lovely. It's peachier than Nars Orgasm, but I can see this being MAC's version of an almost universally flattering color. It's shimmery, without being OTT. I gave it a 4 because it's not as pigmented as Nars blushes. Other than that, I love it and would absolutely repurchase.

A Flash series created by David C. Lovelace, hosted on Newgrounds. Started out as a single short with the titular babies trying to teach the alphabet (similar to a Sesame Street spot, if the Sesame Street writers all did crack), and veered off into a series with the characters as actual characters, with actual storylines and dialog and stuff... sort of. Definitely not safe for work, or anyone who has problems with Funny Animals in sexual situations. Has also spawned a webcomic.See it here.
