- Generally pretty good!Kim1VIPDined on 11/22/2014Apart from my veal Milanese which was burnt on the underside a tad too much, it was generally a great night. Pity about that veal though!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Disappointing.OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 11/22/2014Lamb chops were undercooked and not flavorful. Mashed potatoes were cold and had no taste. Service was slow and in attentive. Our waiter had way too many tables to handle. Was looking forward to this restaurant. Unfortunately we hit it on a bad night or it's not as good as others report.
- Pre-fixe scoreOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 11/20/2014Great pre-fixe dinner and lunch menu. Service a tad slow.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- One of my midtown favsSoringtimeDined on 11/18/2014I requested upstairs seating and the noise level was pretty good, especially to start when it was less crowded. The food is always good, but the portions are on the small-ish side, so if you're really hungry, plan on dessert, appetizers, etc. The Sea Bass is excellent, and highly recommend the chocolate souffle! Takes 20 minutes, but so worth the wait. The bouillabaisse was reportedly delish, but the portion smaller than expected. Great for a cold day though! BTW, this location is larger and more roomy than the one just North and East of here. The upstairs seating really makes a difference.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Warmer GreetingbeallVIPDined on 11/18/2014The one downside to this spot has always been the crush of people at the door-- a good sign that it's popular, but not a very warm greeting or a comfortable atmosphere to walk into. That has been MUCH IMPROVED recently, as they've started to seat people more efficiently, and eliminated much of the wait time that builds up the crowd at the host desk. Makes for a much better start to a great dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- jsalVIPDined on 11/15/2014Went here for brunch and ordered from the prix fixe menu. I had the fig and olive salad (good), the penne funghi (very good) and the chocolate mousse (excellent). They don't serve bread. Service is slow. The place was nice.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- stephanieDined on 11/15/2014i had a great dish i saw it going by on another server's tray and our waitress figured out what i wanted she was lovely and sweet and friendly i had a great lunch!Special Features:
- Great food, though crowded seatingDC25Dined on 11/14/2014Went to Fig & Olive at 5th for dinner on a Friday night. Had reservations and was seated immediately. Seating is so close together it is hard to even put your coat on the back of your chair. That aside, there are a ton of fun food options and all were delicious. Expensive, but great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fig and Olive Fifth Ave is a delightful discovery.creativeeaterDined on 11/14/2014We lived in NYC for many years and our daughter was born here. We've been in Boston for the past few years and were back to Manhattan to meet up with friends from Baltimore and celebrate our daughter's 12th birthday. I found Fig & Olive online and took a chance. What a great pay off! the food was excellent, service was great and there were so many wonderful choices on the menu that everyone was happy. The Zucchini Carpaccio was delicious as was their signature Moroccan chicken dish. We will definitely be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/13/2014Disappointed. Food was not as hyped up as it was made out to be.
- Great food, friendly servicehongyDined on 11/13/2014I ordered the prix fixe menu and to my surprise, the food was very flavorful, good quality and tasty. Portions are moderateSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great for lunchVanassaBDined on 11/11/2014Fig & Olive is my go-to place for lunch. It works for both business and personal with a great vibe and fast service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great place - annoying waiterDianeDreyVIPDined on 11/10/2014Went with my girlfriends for an early dinner. Having a Prix Fix at $45 was a nice surprise at $45. Disappointed that they had run out of the Burgundy at $48, as it was one of the few choices under $50 - waiter suggested we buy the $125 bottle (normally waiters have more sense to keep you in your price range). Food was good, but waiter kept coming back interrupting our conversation with banal statements such as " do you like this" or "do you like that" - it was clear we were in a conversation and he had little sensitivity to timing. Overall restaurant was very energetic, beautiful setting, interesting food - I had crab cakes (which were OK but not great) and paella - the food looked beautiful tasted fine- and I would give it a try again...Special Features:
- robert1robert1Dined on 11/9/2014Tickets at Radio City 4:00 called restaurant prior to 2:30 reservation and informed waiter of time restriction assured by all there would be no problem. I also asked if we had time for the prix-fix brunch and was again told no problem. Other than water no food was served until 3:00 everyone except those that ordered the prix-fix left the restaurant at 3:40. The dessert for the prix-fix arrived at 3:45 and we fortunately had prepaid the bill and had to sprint to Radio City. The food was outstanding.Special Features:
- Delicious!COCNYCDined on 11/9/2014Great food that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Unfortunately our waiter was much more concerned with the large party next to us and often would forget things, mix up our dishes and keep us waiting an exorbitant amount of time. There were other waiters standing around who jumped in to help, so I think service is usually good, he was just terrible. Thankfully we weren't in a rush and just were enjoying a lazy Sunday. Definitely will be back!Special Features:
- BeeBeeDined on 11/9/2014Our server was excellent, but she never shared her name! Crostini choices were delicious; my husband's crab cake eggs benedict was very good, just a little heavy on the garlic. The server accommodated my husband's request to substitute the potatoes with figs without issue. My Truffle Mushroom Fontina Scrambled eggs was rich and savory...if you order, caution on the truffle oil, they over poured for my taste. We found it odd that a nice place such as this did not offer dark napkins, just a pet peeve of ours!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very GoodEstebanDined on 11/8/2014Very good restaurant, one of the best truffle risotto, I have ever had. Went we kids, and they made something out of the menu, for the little one.
- Fantastic food findOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/8/2014We had seen the name F&O and didn't really want a "chain" restaurant meal. We are SO glad we went. The crostini and assorted cheese apps were fantastic. My wife raved over her pumpkin ravioli and we finished the evening with one of the best chocolate soufflés we've ever had. The shallow depth of the ramekin allowed you to have crunchy crust and warm oozing soft soufflé inside with every bite. The ice cream had a hint of orange which gave the dessert the perfect balance. We will be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great find in New YorkBigTunaDined on 11/8/2014Had a lovely dinner after a matinee of Beautiful. Lovely location and view to 52nd Street. Food was interesting from appetizers to desert. The Branzino was excellent especially as I am partial to figs. Portions the write size and service was fantastic. Very attentive and fun. Our waiter was even a great photographer for us. Highly recommend!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mediterranean meets NYCMimiDined on 11/8/2014Young, vibrant and warm decor, with creative and flavorful quality foods beautifully plated and served efficiently. Definitely will return when next in NYC, before a show or to linger.Special Features:
- All good things come to an end7SeasVIPDined on 11/8/2014Have dined here 2 times before with excellent result. On this visit to NYC expected nothing less. No problem getting seated. Not prime dinner time yet. Ordered drinks. Took very longtime for them to come. They came after salad was nearly half finished. Very little salad in bowl. Must be saving up for the Primetime Friday night crowd. Ordered a pasta dish. Wife ordered soup. First go around brought wrong soup. When they brought right one it was completely cold. I ordered a dish with pasta. Pasta difficult to show not cooked properly. Very disappointed this time after two previous excellent visits in last 18 mths. Slow service, bad food value, results in bad reviewSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great option for museum-goersNaSGDined on 11/8/2014On a trip to MoMA, we decided to have lunch before venturing in to the Matisse exhibit. Fig and Olive was the perfect place to go. It is close to the museum, attractive, they honored our reservation (although they neglected to tell one of our party that the rest of the party was seated), the food presentation is attractive, the menu is creative and the the quality of the food is quite good for the price point.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Love it!FoodieMommaVIPDined on 11/7/2014Everything was delicious! The only bad thing was we had to wait half an hour even with reservation. They gave complimentary appetizers though. But the service and food were outstanding!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2003VIPDined on 11/7/2014food was good/ok but a very tired menu. Good selections of appetizers and entrees but then they are covered in sauce or cheese. And Paella cannot be made in 15 minutes; possibly made earlier in the day and then warmed up?? Plenty of other options in NYC to choose from until they get some updates. expensive cafeteria style place at the most...
- Truly Amazing FoodDrBornot2BDined on 11/7/2014Been visiting Manhattan for 28 years - best dinner ever. The Crostini's are delightful, the main course was excellent and the desserts were to die for. Only negative was the noise level due to popularity and the two adjacent tables having people who of some reason used their 'outside voices' over dinner! But that was not the fault of the restaurant. The Lamb was beautifully served and the Lobster Risotto was the best my wife had ever had - and we have traveled! A must go.Special Features:
- WudzVIPDined on 11/7/2014Energetic noise level? Unbelievable din is more like it.Special Features:
- Surprising lunchOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 11/6/2014One must reserve for midweek lunch. No idea this place was so popular. Interesting menu with prix fixe option. Food was fresh and artfully done, service great. Tagine was just okay but would like to go back to try crostini and salad options. Everything looked delish.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great choice... highly recommendedhungryturtleDined on 11/5/2014First time here and was very satisfied. Staff was very attentive and knowledgeable. The menu combined a nice mixture of standard fare (burgers) with more dynamic dishes (thyme infused lamb chops). The paella was superb and the lamb outstanding. Definitely a treat. It was a bit pricy but nothing outrageous considering it is in midtown.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Never disappointsOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 11/5/2014I have been here a couple of times and everytime I forget how good it is. I took a big group of clients out and everyone loved it. You can't go wrong with the Crostini's and I loved my lambchop entree.Special Features:
- Excellent location and foodOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/4/2014I requested a quit table preferably at a window through the open table reservation system and we got a perfect corner location. Good is very good and service is professional. They catered to us with enough attention and give us respectful privacy to carry a conversation without any rude interruptions. If you need a business meeting or don't won't to be overheard, make sure you make a special request. The table are very close to each other, the restaurant is busy and the chances are you will be almost elbowing your neighbor. Special requests are well respected though.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OnolaVIPDined on 11/4/2014One of my favorite restaurants in NY, when I travel there. Everything I have ordered has been delicious.Special Features:
- 5 starajv19813Dined on 11/3/2014This was my third or fourth visit to this F&O location. My table was ready with immediately. The receptionist was very kind and courteous. My guest and I had a cocktail each. And they we excellent followed by the crostini tasting and the beeffect tartar. Both were beautiful plates to look at. For lunch we had the lamb skewers and the burrata salad. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave us a few or favorite dishes as recommendations. Then for dessert we had the pot de creme and the dessert crostini. Overall oustanding experience will be back againSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great FoodPNT999Dined on 11/1/2014I brought an out of town friend to Fig and Olive -- and while I am familiar with the establishment, he was not. He was raving about the food.Special Features:
- bad serviceDinnerfor4VIPDined on 11/1/2014waiter disappeared, broken glass, had to refill our own water, cold fries, etc...Special Features:
- Worst brunch experience everNVS21VIPDined on 11/1/2014I am really blown away by how awful eating here was - from the food to the service, everything was a total fail for the four of us. Our waiter was terrible. He could care less and was surly and inattentive. He never smiled or asked us how we are. Getting coffee was an ordeal. Placing an order took forever. The food was just as nasty - my poached eggs were overdone and tasted sour. The chicken sausage was overly sweet. Other things were bland (zucchini carpaccio) or under seasoned (salmon tartar) or even inconsistent - two diners ordered the same salad and it came with different ingredients! This place had more of an "Olive Garden" feeling in food/service than a high end Italian restaurant on 5th avenue.
- always delightfulyvahnDined on 10/31/2014This uptown outpost of Fig & Olive is a bit quieter and more reserved than it's downtown counterpart... but no less delicious.Special Features:
- Excellent food, exceptional serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/30/2014Fig and Olive on 5th is a beautiful restaurant with amazing food and impeccable service. The ambience is very relaxing. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves food and appreciates fine quality of service! I will definitely be returning.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Where do I begin?OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/30/2014Food was not as good as before. Server was blunt. Service overall was borderline average-below average
- Great food, though loud and crowdedSunnyDined on 10/30/2014Always a crowded venue, but enjoy the food and perfect location to meet up with others.Special Features:
- OverpricedAnnaRDined on 10/29/2014You expect to pay more in Manhattan, but honestly, $15 for 3 miniscule crabcakes ... one bite each! $10 for carrot soup ... maybe 4 spoonfuls. The best things ... my Rossellini drink and the heavenly pot de creme dessert. Oh and our waiter ... he was very engaging, funny, helpful.

The Glen Cove Pee Wee Cardinals are off to a good start with a record of 2 and 0 in the first two weeks of play.
On Sunday, Sept. 11, they traveled to Valley Stream for a noon game.
They started off strong and scored on their first offensive drive with a touchdown by Joseph Johnson. The extra point was scored by Madison Patino. Also having yards gained were Richard Perez and quarterback Jesse Barnes.
Defense didn't let Valley Stream get anywhere with tackles behind the line of scrimmage by Josue Cruz, David Berlin and Joseph Johnson.
After a great carry by Richard Perez, Joseph Johnson again scored. This time the extra point was no good.
Before the half, the Cardinals would again score with a touchdown by Madison Patino. Jesse Barnes scored the extra point. The score at the half was 20-0.
As is the practice in junior football, when a team is up by 3 touchdowns, the opposing team gets to choose four players to remove from the game. Those chosen were Joseph Johnson, Josue Cruz, Jah'Tay Hernandez and Richard Perez.
Glen Cove soon scored again, after the half, on a 26-yard run by David Berlin.
Late in the third quarter, Valley Stream scored.
Defense was strong all game. Jesse Barnes, Anthony Schettino, David Berlin, Madison Patino and Matteo Cameron all had tackles.
Valley Stream scored again right as the game was drawing to an end. The final score was Cardinals 26 and Valley Stream 12.
Thomas Poncet, Cayden Burnet, Peter Liotta, Justin Barwick, John D'Addario, Ryan Evans, and Dillon Fahey all played hard on both sides of the ball. Giovanni Calo, Christian Maiorana, Savion Allen-Vega, Christopher Gielbeda, James Lopez, Vincent Pascucci, Orazio Petito and Robert Arena all gave great effort.
On Saturday, Sept. 17, the Pee Wees hosted West Babylon for a 6 p.m. game under the lights at City Stadium.
On the first play of the game, Joseph Johnson scored on a 60-yard touchdown run. The extra point was no good.
Although there were numerous runs for yards gained by Richard Perez, Madison Patino, Jesse Barnes and Johnson, there would be no more scoring by either side. Johnson and Josue Cruz both recovered West Babylon fumbles. David Berlin, Anthony Schettino, Johnson and Patino also had numerous tackles.
A tough effort was given by all, holding West Babylon to limited yards gained and allowing for the win.
The Cardinals next game is in Oyster Bay, next Sunday, Sept. 25 at 10 a.m.

Mustache You to Wed Save the Date Magnets I'm so happy I decided to shop around and look at other websites for Save-the-Dates. I have been in love with the mustache and lips for a long time and I love that they are coming back in trend. I found a mustache and lips magnet with no picture and I really liked it but wanted one with a picture. I searched some more and found one! I love that we could personalize it with our own wedding colors. We used a rustic save-the-date sign in our engagement pictures and the part of the design that normally has the date printed I changed to read "We mustache you to....". It all came together perfectly. The price was decent and the size of the magnets is perfect, not too big and not too small. I will definitely come back to Magnet Street for future needs.
Great Magnets!!

Money couldn't buy you love or diamond rings at the recent Beatlmania performance, but the next best thing, a trip back in time to the '60s, surfaced at Michael J. Tully Park.
The stage was built on the sidelines of the football field which was packed with people on chairs, blankets with picnic baskets and coolers and some people sat on the bleachers. Children played frisbee, tossed the football around and chased each other on the field as their parents and grandparents viewed the show.

Indian Summer
This nest looked interesting. And if you know the variety of the tree, please say so. It's one of the last to lose its leaves.
Here's a very interesting story dealing with new found friendships: The guitar picker on the right lives just down the road from me, but I didn't meet him until this past summer. He's lived there for about as long as we've lived here, 17 years. I didn't know until after meeting him, and after my wife told me, that he too is from the Bluegrass State, and loves bluegrass music (he has old cassette tape recordings of his mother's bluegrass band, they were just as good as any top name bluegrass act today). Maybe I'll record us doin a song and post it here.
I think there's a lot more to black and white than just black and white. I find it surprising to see so many shades in only two colors. Nothing's ever really black or white.
This Japanese maple (Acer palmatum) is most interesting. If you don't have one in your landscape, you need to get one, or possibly two or three. This one was already well established when we moved here. It's never given us any problems.

Hey TC! Yes, I think you should record you and your new friend playing a bluegrass song and post it on here. That would be great! I love your Japanese maple. Sure wish I knew what type of tree that yellow one is-an ash? beechnut? Very pretty.

Looks like a beech to me. They're one of my favorites because the leaves cling to their branches until pushed off by new growth in spring. Love your pics TC. I also thought your comments on your post right after the election was well put.

Hi TC, for some reason your friend reminds me of Garth Brooks;) A little.
I've never tried a Japanese maple, altho I love them. I understand they are a favorite of the Japanese beetles. There is no point in providing another food source for those hated bugs to destroy.

TC, how wonderful that you have made a new friend and one with similar interests and background. Has Tina somehow been instrumental in this meeting too? I feel like she is sitting on my shoulder now whenever I meet someone new, encouraging me to be more sociable. The tree may be a birch or beech, not sure. How tall is it and what is the shape?

Ms. Tina: I need you as a back-up singer. You don't even have to be here, I have a digital voice recorder I can use right over the phone. I'm pretty sure the tree is a beech.
Joe: Thanks ol' pal! (You're not really old.)
Ms. Marnie: Phillip has a better voice. ;~) I hope I don't jinx my Japanese maple by sayin beetles of the same name never bother it.
Ms. W2W: Would you be interested as one of my back-up singers too?
My beech is about 30 feet tall, and shaped like me: fat. ;~)
Hello Mr. Sobczak, I don't think I've seen you here before. Thank you very much for the compliment on my photo. I remember when I was a kid and we'd play with milkweed pods. I'm not sure if the "milk" seeping from the pods is poisonous or not and I don't remember if we tried to "drink" it. I hope to see you here again. ;~)
Ms. Fern: Possibly so; I've not been notified of any other comments from you. And thanks for stopping by, come again please.

Neat stuff! It's funny that so many people don't know their neighbors. When I was growing up we knew nearly everyone on our street and the adjacent streets. Now we kind of know our immediate neighbors and that's about it. It's great you met someone in your neighborhood with whom you have a common interest. The pictures are great. The Japanese maple is a great tree, I hope to get a few more!

From One T. to another T.: Thanks so much for visiting and do come back often. We're now at the point where color is almost absent in the garden. Alas, winter is fast approaching.
Dave: I too remember "the good ol' days" when you'd leave your front and back doors open all night and neighbors borrowed sugar, milk, and bread from each other.
Sue: Thanks for stopping in. I plan on discussing a performance with my buddy. ;~)

Dear TC,
A joy in life is meeting new "friends". Equally delightful when they are in the neighborhood.
The house behind me is vacant. I have a wish that a charming woman moves in. I hope she would enjoy some of the same things I do and we could be friends.
My husband plays the guitar. He also have taken to the ukulele. I often wish he had a friend to pick with. Nice you do now.
Indian Summer is a beautiful way to say "Goodbye" to Autumn. Your pictures are so bright I feel as if I am standing under them looking up!
- November 14, 2008 at 5:35 PM
- TC said...
Ms. Sherry: We have a "vacant" neighbor too. It's the house next door and I hope whoever ends up moving in will also be a gardener.
I would love to pick with your husband, and who knows, perhaps I may in the future. ;~)

Hi TC, Thanks for dropping a note at my place. I appreciate the compliment on my snowman card.
So...are you offering your wife's Stampin' Up stuff the same way my hubby offers to sell my Victoria magazines and vast book collection... to make more room for his hobby of collecting (and sometimes using) his woodworking tools? (smile)
BTW...thanks for the kind offer, but I'll pass.

No injuries reported from Brattleboro-area crashesNovember 23,2012No injuries in Brattleboro crashes
Troopers from the Brattleboro barracks of the Vermont State Police investigated a few crashes on Thursday but reported no serious injuries.
Senior Trooper Genevra Cushman said a crash on Route 9 near the intersection with MacArthur Road in Marlboro around 10:15 a.m. sent a man to the hospital.
Police said Patrick Perrotti, 68, of Wilmington, was traveling west on Route 9 when he lost control of his 1993 Toyota truck on black ice. Perrottis truck collided with the drivers side of a 2007 Chevrolet HHR, driven by Thomas Albercio, 51, of Brattleboro, who was also traveling west on Route 9.
The Toyota truck then entered the oncoming lane where it collided with a 2012 Toyota Sienna, driven by Jeffrey Salmon, 45, of Rexford, N.Y., who was traveling east on Route 9.
The truck and the Sienna were towed from the scene but the HHR was able to be driven away.
Perrotti was taken to Brattleboro Memorial Hospital to be treated for a laceration of the ear, Cushman said.
The Marlboro Fire Department assisted at the scene.
In Brattleboro, a 3-year-old child was in a car with his parents when it crashed but none of the family members were injured. Trooper James Matthews said the crash took place around 2 p.m. on Exit 3 of Interstate 91.
According to Matthews, Christopher Bellemare, 34, of Naugatuck, Conn., lost control of the 2002 Ford Excursion he was driving while on the northbound off-ramp of the highway, resulting in a roll over crash.
Bellemare, his wife, Melissa and their 3-year-old son were not injured as they were all wearing seat belts, police said, but Bellemare was issued tickets for failure to maintain his vehicle in the lane of travel and driving with defective equipment.
The Brattleboro Fire Department and Rescue Squad also responded to the crash.MORE IN This Just InVermont hazardous-materials team members were at the Asa Bloomer state office building in... Full StoryHoliday Festival Full StorySpeed blamed Full Story

KANSAS CITY, Missouri (Reuters) - Missouri is set to execute
early Wednesday a convicted killer whose lawyers have said has a
rare health condition that could lead to extreme pain and
suffocation during a lethal injection.
Russell Bucklew, 46, would be the first U.S. inmate executed
since the botched April 29 execution of Oklahoma inmate Clayton
Lockett, who writhed in apparent pain after what prison
officials said was a ruptured vein that prevented the lethal
cocktail of chemicals from being delivered properly.
Lockett, a convicted murderer, died of a heart attack 43
minutes after the injection started.
Bucklew was convicted of the 1996 murder of Michael Sanders
in southeast Missouri, and the kidnapping and rape of Stephanie
Ray, an ex-girlfriend who had been seeing Sanders. He is
scheduled to die early Wednesday at a Missouri state prison.
Lawyers for Bucklew are seeking a stay of his execution,
arguing that malformed blood vessels in Bucklew's head and neck
could rupture under stress, causing the lethal drugs to
circulate improperly and cause him undue suffering.
Attorney Cheryl Pilate also has asked the courts to require
the execution to be videotaped to preserve any evidence should
Bucklew's death be prolonged and excruciating or if he chokes
and suffocates.
U.S. District Court Judge Beth Phillips on Monday denied the
stay and the request to have his execution videotaped. Phillips
ruled there was insufficient evidence to suggest Bucklew would
suffer severe and needless pain.
Bucklew's lawyers have appealed that ruling.
Missouri's correction department said in court papers that
Bucklew's condition dates back many years and he did not have to
wait until days before his execution to raise the issue.
He has had surgery while under anesthesia and there is no
reason to believe anesthesia won't be effective prior to
administering the lethal drugs, the department said.
The department also has opposed the videotaping of the
execution, saying that allowing it "could lead us back to the
days of executions as public spectacles."
If the execution is carried out, Bucklew would be the fifth
person put to death by Missouri in 2014 and the 21st person
executed in the United States, including Lockett.

Fall color is definitely emerging in Tennessee, as autumn brings cooler temperatures and crisp sunny days mixed with rainfall. Approximately twenty-five percent of the color is showing in beautiful Northeast Tennessee.
Higher elevations of Great Smoky Mountains National Park are showing warm golds and yellows among the American beech, yellow birch, mountain ash, pin cherry and mountain maple. And, lower elevations are still predominantly green but dogwoods, black walnuts, sumac, Virginia creeper, spice bush and sourwoods are showing yellows and burgundy reds against a green backdrop.
Moving into Southeast Tennessee, tap into the color by taking a drive through the Sequatchie Valley region along TN-28 and Hwy 127, offering spectacular views of the mountains on both sides. Or, jump on the Hiwassee River Rail for the perfect way to see fall colors in the mountains of the Tennessee Overhill region and the Cherokee National Forest.
Mother Nature is taking the opportunity to show off with a blaze of color in the Upper Cumberland before winter arrives. The leaves are beginning their breathtaking display across the region--with waves of gold and russet. Visit Dale Hollow, Cordell Hull or Center Hill lakes for some spectacular fall color viewing.
An afternoon drive on Scenic Highway 64 from Savannah to Somerville provides picturesque views of rolling West Tennessee hills with hints of oncoming color.
Visit tnvacation.com for more information.
Wildlife, including black bear and white-tailed deer, abounds throughout the Smokies. Clearly, this is a leaf peeper's heaven. Hike, cycle, or horseback ride, with miles of trails carpeted with vibrant leaves. Waterfalls, rock scrambles and, of course, technicolor foliage, thrillingly contrast with evergreens.
Whether for a golf foursome, a spirited whitewater adventure, a cycling sprint or a relaxing trail jaunt, life and the lovely vistas in Tennessee are made all the sweeter when shared.

Matt Forte can walk, but injury still pains Bears
By Sean Jensen email@example.com December 4, 2011 10:46PM
Chiefs linebacker Derrick Johnson ends Matt Forte's day early by plowing into his right knee. | Tom Cruze~Sun-Times
Updated: January 6, 2012 8:17AM
In the bowels of Soldier Field minutes after a 10-3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, running back Matt Forte walked past the Bears' locker room and headed to his vehicle with his family and friends.
That he didn't need crutches or a brace was one of the most encouraging signs on an otherwise disastrous day for the Bears.
Asked how he was doing, Forte said, ''I'll be fine.''
He'll undergo an MRI exam today, but as the Sun-Times first reported, the expectation is Forte sprained the medial collateral ligament in his right knee.
''We just have to keep our fingers crossed,'' coach Lovie Smith said, ''and hopefully it's not that serious.''
From his home in Los Angeles, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Daniel Kharrazi watched the jarring hit in the first quarter in which Chiefs linebacker Derrick Johnson drilled Forte squarely in the knee with his left shoulder. Kharrazi said it's very encouraging that Forte walked under his own power after the game, even if he had a slight limp.
''When you have a valgus injury, where your knee goes inward, you are concerned about the MCL and the ACL,'' said Kharrazi, a surgeon at Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic who serves as a knee consultant with the Lakers, Dodgers and several other pro sports teams. "If all he has is an isolated MCL, he's pretty lucky.''
In 2009, Forte played through an MCL sprain. But this could be a different injury, the extent of which won't be fully known until doctors see the MRI results. One of the keys will be determining how much inflammation there is.
Some MCL sprains could take six to eight weeks to heal, depending on other issues, Kharrazi said.
At 7-5, the Bears can ill afford to lose Forte at all.
After a dominant performance against the Philadelphia Eagles on ''Monday Night Football'' on Nov. 7, Forte has been the focal point of defenses, often with a safety called upon to help slow him down.
In the three games before Sunday, Forte averaged 60 rushing yards and 18 receiving yards per game. When he left the game against the Chiefs, Forte had five carries for 12 yards.
''You see how important he is today without him,'' receiver Devin Hester said. ''We're really going to have to go back to the drawing board this week because Matt was a key part, a really key part, of the offense. Hopefully, we can figure out a way.''
Tight end Matt Spaeth lamented that he didn't block Johnson well enough on that fateful play.
''I felt horrible — [Johnson] made a good play,'' Spaeth said. ''I missed him. I was coming around, tried hookin' him to get Matt outside, which we were supposed to do. But they were kind of all day jumping underneath and submarining and diving and different things all day. I don't think anybody feels worse about the Matt Forte injury than me because it was my guy.''
Veteran backup Marion Barber did a solid job running the ball with 44 yards on 14 carries. But he showed his inexperience as a receiver, failing to line up on the line of scrimmage on a fourth-and-one from the four-yard line in the second quarter.
Barber was lined up in the backfield, but he motioned to the left side as a receiver. And with no one defending him, he easily caught a pass from Hanie for the touchdown. Except for his penalty.
The Bears settled for a 32-yard field goal.
''That's tough,'' receiver Roy Williams said of Forte's injury. ''That puts the burden on Marion, Kahlil [Bell] and whoever else we bring in. We're in a tough little thing right now. This team will bounce back and get a win next week.''
But it'll have to get more creative than ever, minus its two best offensive players, Forte and quarterback Jay Cutler.

Eastern Standard and Rustic Kitchen???
- m
- mostbeloved May 18, 2007 04:18 AM
I will applaud myself and set the record straight first that I am a seasoned restaurant person with alot of expeirence on the subject of FOOD< DRINK < and most of all SERVICE. You will hear from me from time to time as I am not a complainer or picky picky service person, but proffessional I AM...
This particular comment is about the above mentioned.
Both have a really bad person to customer ambiance.
There are two many restaurants in this beautiful town to continue to have an attitude toward customers.
Eastern Standard----------> well on a MONDAY NIGHT (no red sox game) I was told that the only way to get a bar seat was to ask the bartender to put us on HIS list as the bar seats are reserved. FORGET IT>>>>>>>>I was told this with an attitude, and also if I wanted to sit down at one of the many bar tables that it would be 45 to 1 hour wait and the only way I could put my name on the list was to give the stone face woman my cell phone number, as this is how they do it she said. We and my party of 5 left the building.
By the way we stood at the bar for 10 minutes looking not waving at the unattentive bartender and he never even looked our way. BAD BAD SERVICE...
And Rustic Kitchen do not even bother, especially if the BLONDE WOMAN BARTENDER is on... The bar was completely empty on another Monday Night. This bartender never came over to ask if we wanted anything. This woman just put down a drink menu, walked away, (I do not look at drink menu's) then put down the wine list,( we were not drinking wine) and kept talking to this one guy at the bar and never came over to ask if we wanted anything, never even put a bevnap in front of us to aknowledge our presence. BAD BAD SERVICE...
I was going to write to both owners of these establishments,whim I know personally, but I decided to post here to remind us all that "you never know who is at your establishment" Treat all customers as if they are VERY IMPORTANT. After all.......... I could be your next customer....
Weird. I have never experienced that seating protocol at ESK, and I have been by for drinks and/or a meal a couple of times a month since it opened.
Seats at the bar have always been first-come, first-served, so I've been instructed to hover, which I do, and that works just fine, just like it does at most bars.
I have had to wait for a seat at a table in the bar area, a table in the dining room, and a table or group of seats in the two patio areas (one conventional dining tables, the other lounge seating). I've never been asked for a cellphone number. I've also made reservations for the dining room on multiple occasions that were honored without a wait.
As I've mentioned here before, I prefer dining while seated at the bar to either of the patios, a table in the bar, or a table in the dining room, due to ongoing service consistency issues with that dining room waitstaff. I have always found the service at the bar to be excellent, even when the place is mobbed. In terms of bartending chops, that crew is one of the two best on this side of the river (No. 9's is the other).
I think it's better to avoid the pre- and post-Sox game crowds.
I haven't been very impressed with the new Rustic Kitchen, but have only been to the bar a couple of times. My issue is less with their hospitality than their below-average bartending.
re: MC Slim JB
Well, it was not imagination, and TOP NOTCH BARTENDERS acknowledge the patrons ASAP.... I am not a complainer or a severe angry critic... I was just dis-appointed... v-e-r-y.....
I guess I should speak with garrett and joe....
re: ponyboy
I don't think anyone was accusing you of imagining it, just stating that their own experiences have been different. Mine have too, at least at ES.
re: ponyboy
I was about to ask the same. I go to ES often and haven't found case to complain e-v-e-r... It's one of the only places I've gone since it's opened that has consistently delivered. You have to snag bar seating when it's available, like all my other favorite restaurant/bars. I've got no beef with that.
re: MC Slim JB
I usually dine at the bar for lunch where the service has been lovely. The one time I went for post-work cocktails the bar was packed. The bartender (female, short hair) was *great.* And, while it appeared to be first come, first serve, it was clear that she was keeping a mental list as to who did arrive there first. She informed me and my drinking companion a rough estimate as to how long we would have to wait for bar seats and she subtly pointed them out. We ended up snagging bar seats on our own, but her input was much appreciated. The whole experience played well to my internal sense of fairness.
re: MC Slim JB
I ate at ESK for the first time last night. I made a reservation for 7:30 on opentable.com, knowing that the Sox game started at 7:00. We walked in and were seated promptly at a dining room table. (The bar area was not crowded, but I did not notice if there were any stools available at the bar or the adjacent bar tables.) I thought the service was very good: not extraordinary, but nothing to complain about either.
i have had similar experiences at ESK. My friend and I live in the area and we go there a lot for dinner. We have gotten to know one of the managers who is probably the only decent person there. However, i cannot understand how no matter when you go there, there is like an hour wait! I mean the food is good, but not THAT good! A lot of the waiters and waitresses there have major attitude and are not overly attentive.
re: NiKoLe1625
I have to agree with MC Slim on ESK. My wife and I ave dined there often and never experienced any problems. In fact, I second MC's comments regarding the professionalism of the barstaff at ESK. We always prefer sitting at the bar because in addition to having a great meal we enjoy chatting with the barstaff. One a recent visit I learned a lot about Rye whiskey which I prefer in some of the classic cocktails like an Old Fashion. I agree that is frustrating at times to try to get a seat at the bar and we have always been told that it is on a first-come, first-serve basis but hovering does work as long as you are not pressed for time.
re: bitsubeats
I agree with bitsubeats and the others - have been to ES many many times and never experienced service issues that you mentioned. On one busy night, we were told to put our name down for the bar tables and that it would be an hour wait, but were actually seated within 20 minutes. I certainly wasn't offended when told this. I've never tried to sit at the bar with a party of five, we only do that if there are two of us.
I've only been to Rustic Kitchen once - last Friday. We all had wine, and enjoyed friendly efficient service from both bartenders, male and female.
I have been to ESK a few times so not alot of expeirence, but I have noticed nothing other than proffessional service - the bartenders were busy but always aknowledged me and the persons with whim I was drinking.
At EST, I am not surprised that you were told to check in with the bartender. I have done this numerous occassions in NYC - Babbo, Union Square, when wanting to eat at the bar, alone or with others. To me it is not unusual for the bartendar to police the seats at his bar and keep track of who is waiting to dine. If you were just looking for cocktails, then it is a battle to the bar wherever you go. I enjoy knowing a bartender that seats me rather than the couple waiting for their table.
That said, I have had some of the worst service of my life, so bad it was laughable at Rustic Kitchen in theatre district. Such a nice looking space with acceptable apps, terrible entrees - what else is there but a strong bar - They fail completely.
re: robwat36
My very fussy, elderly, inlaws stayed at the Commonwealth for 5 days and they adored going into ESK for drinks at the bar, and then moving to a table for dinner. They found the service wonderful, attentive and very accomodating to them. These are very, very demanding people and they were so pleased with their experiences there, that they contacted upper management to offer kudos to the establishment, and specifically to particular servers. They were especially fond o f the bar staff. Oh, and they enjoyed the food very much.
re: robwat36
I agree with mostbeloved about not looking at drink menus. I really am not interested in some overdone (and overpriced) drink with a "catchy" name. I can see the taps if I want a draft, generally will order a simple "classic" cocktail, or I will request a wine list. I do not have a problem with drink lists but would certainly not appreciate having a list dropped in front of me as a replacement for a friendly greeting and a simple "what are you drinking this evening". It really isn't that difficult to interact with guests and make them feel welcome and appreciated. Who knows, maybe they will even leave a tip !
re: TonyO
That's a shame. You're really missing out at Eastern Standard if you ignore their cocktail menu. Their ability to create interesting originals and revive great forgotten classics, and do both with integrity, is one the things that make it an extraordinary bar.
I agree that a list full of sugary, candy-flavored rookie concoctions is worth ignoring -- and that chucking a menu at a customer is no substitute for a proper greeting -- but not every bar with a cocktail list is doing that.
I guess I understand if you're a dyed-in-the-wool beer or highballs kind of drinker, never ordering anything made in a shaker.
re: MC Slim JB
It is so rare to see a cocktail list that doesn't resemble something Sandra Lee would concoct ("here is my Lady Liberty Libation for Flag Day, it is a mix of Malibu Rum, Cherry Koolaid, and is topped with a Blueberry Poptart") that I have almost given up looking unless I was bored. However, you can usually tell by looking around at what others are drinking if there is something more enticing within those pages. It is always nice to be pleasantly surprised !
re: MC Slim JB
Classic cocktails need no explanation... If you are a cocktail drinker you should know what you want... So the tip here is, KNOW what you want...
re: mostbeloved
Nevermind for expanding your horizons and trying new things. If not for the wonderful bartending staff and cocktail menu at ESK I'd still be drinking nothing but dirty martinis and cosmos.
re: heathermb
I've never had anything but great service and drinks at the bar at ESK. I may have had to hover to get my seat, but once I've gotten it, it's been exceptional.
re: mostbeloved
This is silly, how will you ever try something new, which you might love, rather than sticking to the same old drink?
re: mostbeloved
"Know what you want." Excellent tip. Here's one of the things I know I want: a bartending staff that is capable of surprising and delighting me, even though I have a fairly broad knowledge of cocktail lore and have spent some time behind the stick myself.
I think it's essential to being a Chowhound: not deluding yourself that you have encyclopedic knowledge or experience, understanding that there's always another chef, bartender, sommelier or server who has something fresh, original, and new to bring to the table, and being open to new ideas and experiences.
An example: I thought I'd seen it all, and yet an ESK bartender suggested a cocktail that was new to me, the Hoskins: gin, Amer Picon, Maraschino liqueur, Cointreau, orange bitters. Sounds like a classic cocktail, but it is actually a fairly recent invention, and is absolutely delicious, everything a cocktail should be: balanced, intriguing, beautiful to look at. And yet, had I decided that knowing what I wanted meant drinking only what I already knew about, I never would have tried it.
Closing yourself to novelty is one way to go through life. I imagine there's some comfort in knowing you'll never have to experience disappointment, since you've already tried everything you're ever going to try. But it's an extraordinary philosophy to express on a board where one of the few commonalities among the contributors is a well-developed sense of adventure. I like my tried-and-true favorites, too, but my life would feel comparatively arid, shrunken, and dull if that's all I ever ate or drank.
re: MC Slim JB
Very nicely put!
re: MC Slim JB
I couldn't agree more - eloquently put, as always, MC.
"MostBeloved", one of Chowhounds 'credos' if you will, is searching out new things. As you can see by the responses, this forum would be the last place to tell someone to stick with only the things they know and are comfortable with.
Here's an idea of the kinds of things ESK is doing. To not even look at it is a shame.
I agree with the above posts regarding excellent service at ESK, particularly at the bar, but maybe what we're all missing is that you had a party of 5 with you. I find ESK to be packed no matter what night I go, Sox or not, and although the bar is large, seating six people at it probably takes a bit of maneuvering. I imagine it would be the same at any bar.
Maybe I'm just a more laid back diner, or perhaps I tend to call upon my own experiences in a variety of customer service situations, but if I bring a group of more than 3 or 4 in unnannounced to any restaurant, I go in with the expectation that I will wait standing in the bar area for at least an hour (which doesn't often happen). I can't imagine expecting any restaurant, from your average chain to the creme de la creme, to seat a group immediately, especially at a bar's limited seats.
I just returned from Eastern Standard and thought I'd share my positive experience. I went after work to catch up with a friend, and we specifically chose the location since the Sox are not playing and we had a chance to score a seat outside.
When we arrived (around 6.30) the patio was about 70% full. We were seated immediately, but were put at the two top just next to the busing station. We noticed another open table nearby and they were happy to reseat us.
I was in a wine mood, so I didn't try any of the cocktails I have heard about, but was quite pleased with my selection (the rioja). I had the seared tuna salad for my meal, and was more than satisfied with the small size (about 3 oz of tuna, vs the 7 oz portion of the large version). My friend had the burger, and she was almost embarrassed when she singlehandedly finished it all!
Our waitress was good, and took our cues well when we had been there for a good while chatting before even looking at the bar menu. She seemed to get on our pace right from the start. By the time we left (around 9) the place was only about 40% full. I would definitely recommend it, and will surely go back to try more items on the menu.

Hi, sorry for my english, but i have one problem.
as i find the sensor and how i can clean him?
Note: Be careful not to touch the image transfer belt while removing the ID sensor board.
That is easy way..
Clean or replace the ID sensor,but first you need to check parts yield or life like PCU and ITB(Image Transfer Belt).
Also happens when parts are expired or done their life.

Althea GibsonWidely regarded as one of the most talented athletes in the United States, Althea Gibson overcame extreme racism to break barriers in tennis and pave the way for talented athletes of all races to compete equally. Born in South Carolina, she moved to Harlem at the age of three. After being given a tennis racquet at the age of 13, Gibson displayed such talent that she was invited to become an honorary member of the elite Cosmopolitan Tennis Club. In 1942, at the age of 15, Althea began playing in the American Tennis Association (ATA) and won the first tournament she ever entered. The ATA was a counterpart to the United States Lawn Tennis Association (now the USTA), which did not allow African American players to enter tournaments at the time. In 1957, Gibson became the first African American to win the All-England Championships at Wimbledon and the U.S. National Tennis Championships at Forest Hills, forever changing the face of tennis. She repeated these feats in 1958. After retiring from tennis, Gibson went on to play professional golf, again smashing barriers by becoming the first African-American to earn her LPGA card. Althea Gibson's tremendous feats continue to inspire generations of athletes from all races and walks of life.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - U.S. teenagers who use indoor
tanning devices are more likely to take part in other risky
behaviors, according to a new government study.
Researchers from the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) found that using indoor tanning devices was
linked to binge drinking, having sex and using unsafe methods to
control weight among high school students.
"I think it's important to understand the prevalence of
indoor tanning and its relation to other risky behaviors," Gery
Guy, Jr., the study's lead author from the CDC, told Reuters
Understanding the relationship between other behaviors and
indoor tanning can help public health advocates to understand
the tanners' motivations and better target campaigns to dissuade
the practice.
The World Health Organization (WHO), the American Medical
Association and the American Academy of Dermatology have come
out against indoor tanning in recent years.
In 2009, WHO labeled tanning devices as high-level
carcinogens, which puts tanning on par with tobacco use as a
public health threat.
In 2007, a working group affiliated with WHO found that
people who used tanning beds before their 30th birthday were 75
percent more likely to develop melanoma - the deadliest form of
skin cancer.
That added risk translates, for example, to about seven more
women out of every 10,000 developing melanoma. One past study
showed that 24 out of 10,000 women who regularly used tanning
beds developed melanoma compared to 17 out 10,000 women who
rarely or never used them.
For the new study, the researchers analyzed data from two
national CDC surveys of high school students in grades nine
through 12 that asked about various behaviors related to their
health. The surveys were conducted in 2009 and 2011.
About 16 percent of students said they had used indoor
tanning devices in the 2009 survey and about 13 percent reported
indoor tanning in the 2011 survey. The difference, however,
could have been due to chance.
Also, in both years, the researchers write in JAMA
Dermatology that female students were more likely to report
using indoor tanning devices compared to males. That applied
especially to older and non-Hispanic white students.
As for other risky behaviors, both male and female students
who reported indoor tanning were more likely to report binge
drinking, having sex and using unhealthy methods to control
their weight.
Among girls, illegal drug use and having had sex with four
or more partners were also more likely among those who used
indoor tanning.
Using steroids that weren't prescribed by a doctor, smoking
daily and attempting suicide were more common among male
students who used indoor tanning, Guy and his colleagues found.
Students who tanned were also more likely to play on sports
teams and to eat vegetables.
Together these results, coupled with previous research,
indicate that indoor tanners may be motivated by a desire to
improve their appearance, the researchers suggest.
"Thus, efforts to reduce indoor tanning may be more
successful if they address appearance-based motives and
emphasize the detrimental appearance aspects of indoor tanning
rather than solely focusing on the negative health effects,"
they write.
For example, Guy said using videos to show the effects of UV
radiation on a person's skin may be more effective than pushing
out a general health message.
"Early intervention is key among this population to avoid
having the behavior continue into the adulthood," he said.

super bowl
Posted by Mark J. Miller on January 15, 2013 04:01 PM
Some 30-second blocks of Super Bowl airtime are being sold for as high as $4 million — a $500,000 increase from the top seller in last year's telecast, according to USA Today.
The research firm Kantar Media notes that the increase means that the price "is growing at three to five times the rate it did just a decade ago."
"No one is holding a gun to the heads of these advertisers," Jon Swallen, chief research officer at Kantar, told USA Today. "Clearly, these are price increases the market is willing to bear." Swallen said he thinks the first 30-seconds-for-$5 million Super Bowl deal could air in 2016.
Those tuning in for the cola giants and other brand marketers suiting up for Game Day are in luck: The number of in-game ads has been going up, Swallen said.
One of the brands shelling out that kind of dough is M&M's, which had a much-heralded spot in the last year's Super Bowl. M&M's won't release its commercial or details of the ad in advance, according to a press release. However, the ad is tied to a new "Better With M" spot and social campaign that launched this week.Continue reading...

Australians have been enjoying Pie Face bakery cafes since 2003. There are now 75 locations dotted along the continent's eastern coastline.
It currently has a single store in the U.S., located in New York next to David Letterman's NYC home at the Ed Sullivan Theater just north of Times Square (hence its tagline, "From Bondi Beach to Broadway").
But don't worry, Americans, your days of living without Pie Face's version of the humble Australia meat pie may be soon coming to an end.
Steve Wynn, the founder and CEO of Wynn Resorts who has been in the biz since 1963 when he took over his family's Maryland bingo parlor, is investing $15 million into Pie Face to help the brand expand.
"Having met the Pie Face USA management team recently and having visited their first store in New York, I came to the conclusion that they were bright people with a bright concept," Wynn stated. "I look forward to backing them as they expand throughout Manhattan and across the United States."Continue reading...

The Made In America Store is making the most out of a recent David Letterman complaint on his Late Show that "We can't even make our own back scratcher in America, why?" A press release announces, "In response, the Made In America Store has sent Letterman a Maple Landmark Back Scratcher, entirely made in America."
A new survey from Li-Ning, the Chinese athletic footwear and apparel company founded and named after China's most famous Olympic medal-winning gymnast, suggests that Americans might just be in the market for a Chinese-made back scratcher after all. In fact, the survey's highlight finding suggests that over 90 percent of US consumers are ready to buy a Chinese brand. Continue reading...

sex sells
Posted by Dale Buss on February 15, 2012 03:42 PM
It's not like using sex to sell is a new idea, but something about the popularity of Sports Illustrated's annual swimsuit issue keeps inviting brand innovation by the digital marketers at SI and Time Inc.
For the 2012 edition, arriving in mailboxes, newsstands and tablets to eager readers this week, a couple of automakers are throwing some curves — in the form of promotions with their own bikini-clad models.
Lexus is running a campaign that matches the twists and turns in a depiction of a competitive driving course to the body curves of a swimsuit model. The objective: to spotlight the 2013 GS, the sporty sedan featured in the brand's Super Bowl ad and a key launch for Lexus's hopes of a sales comeback this year after last years's supply-chain woes. Previous swimsuit-issue model Tori Praver is the model in the Lexus campaign.Continue reading...
