BLAKE GRIFFIN SAYS IT'S JUST A SMALL CUT. On the second floor of a modern home overlooking L.A.'s Manhattan Beach, the 22-year-old Clippers power forward props his bandaged right foot on a brown ottoman and reclines into the matching sectional. Behind the conjoined living room and kitchen space, a bank of large windows displays the sequined blue ocean.
It's all very nice to look at, the spoils of budding NBA stardom. The high-profile tenant looks somehow familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. You never see this dude relaxing—it's like his 4WD suddenly developed a new gear: park. Why? Three days earlier Griffin was out in that sequined water when he felt a sharp pain in his foot. Then, blood. Griffin doesn't know what did the piercing, but it produced a seven-stitch wound that knocked him on his ass for a week. "I've been sitting around, bored out of my mind," he says. It's just a little break in his skin that led to a short break in his routine. But for Blake Griffin, any sort of rest is unusual. The man's world is defined by hustle.
When Griffin made his NBA debut last season, he registered 20 points and 14 rebounds in his very first game. Within weeks he had established himself as a force in the post and a revelation above it, his dunks making him a stock character on SportsCenter. When the All-Star break arrived, Griffin became the first rookie to make the team since Yao Ming in 2003. Then he won the Slam Dunk Contest by jumping over a car. For the season he averaged 22.5 points and 12.1 boards, reinvigorated the NBA's most pathetic franchise, and was unanimously voted Rookie of the Year. His impact was so profound that former Warriors coach Keith Smart told the San Francisco Chronicle, "I don't think we've ever seen a guy whose energy level is that high." Griffin aims to keep it that way.
"Energy is something you can control," he says. "In everything you do, you're going to face people more talented than you. I set myself apart by bringing more energy than they do."
This isn't always as simple as it sounds. As the number one pick in the 2009 NBA draft, Griffin was expected to immediately inject life into the moribund Clippers. Then he tweaked his knee in the team's final preseason game. Trainers thought rehab would suffice, but the hinge healed improperly, so Griffin needed surgery. That meant 3 more months of the same tedious rehab he had just completed. It's one thing to summon boundless energy while garnering six national Player of the Year awards during his sophomore campaign at the University of Oklahoma. It's another to stoke that fire when the crowd consists of a physical therapist.
"There were days when I didn't feel like going through the same routine," he says. "But I learned that if you're positive, any situation can be a chance to improve yourself." During those months of rehab, he built booster rockets into his vertical leap, which is now a staggering 38 inches. The naysayers questioned whether he'd ever fully recover, so he emerged more motivated than ever. The stage was set for his breakout. He hit his high mark, right on cue, but then found that even his explosive highlights weren't enough.

"I constantly heard that all I do is dunk," Griffin says. "And I can understand it. There aren't SportsCenter clips of me shooting 15-footers." No ambitious person wants to be one-dimensional—the greats in every arena have complete games. So Griffin went into this off-season committed to developing his shooting.
Every morning, and again a few nights a week, Griffin works on his shots—off the dribble, facing up—game-situation fare. He says the performance that gave him the most pride last season was a January 17 tilt against the Pacers. He scored 47 points but had only one dunk.
"Most of my baskets came from midrange jumpers," he says. "I was the finesse player people said I couldn't be. I'm excited to show how I've added to that part of my game."
The contract dispute between NBA team owners and the Players Association once again put Griffin on the shelf. While waiting for the squabble to end, Griffin supplemented his shooting drills with an hour of yoga 3 days a week, heading off to the gym afterward for a workout. In a standard off-season week, he does an hour of strength and conditioning work 3 to 5 days a week.
Griffin's relentless work ethic came from his dad, who coached him throughout high school. "My dad pushed me harder than any other coach would have," he says. "He stressed that when you're on the court, it's time to do work. That really rubbed off on me."
And, in turn, Griffin endeavors to leave a similar mark on his teammates. Along with point guard Mo Williams, Griffin summoned the Clippers diaspora to Los Angeles over the summer for a week of workouts and pickup games. "I recently got to talk to Magic Johnson," Griffin recalls. "He said he used to tell individual teammates, 'Come in before practice and work with me.' He emphasized that being a leader isn't about just pushing yourself. It's also about motivating teammates."
Then Griffin sliced his foot open. Yes, it was just a minor injury, more of an annoyance than a serious setback, but it served as yet another reminder that there will be times when he can't play. Eventually he'll be ushered off the court for good. "A lot of older guys have told me how quickly it goes by," he says, "and that suddenly I'll be in panic mode, trying to figure out what to do next. I figure it's never too early to start planning ahead."
To that end, Griffin spent a portion of his lockout-plagued summer channeling his extra energy into something positive—an unpaid internship (not that he needed the money) working on videos at the humor website Funny or Die. "I wanted to see that side of comedy," Griffin says. "After my workouts, I'd spend the day at the website offices. I'd like to get involved with TV in some capacity when I'm done playing. Next summer I may even write my own videos." Griffin has also done improvised interviews for MySpace, and a segment on Sports Show with Norm Macdonald. (Producers should start calling Griffin's agent... now.)
Griffin worries that people may see his extracurriculars as distractions, but like any career-minded worker, he believes in using his current gig as a foundation for future options. It's called foresight. After all, injuries happen. So do labor disputes. There are even random seashell attacks. Having a backup plan is just one more hustle play.

Lost Subscorcher Review
The Lost Sub Scorcher (AKA The Trashcan Lid) "I wanna board for 1ft mush. Something really short n wide, but still a shortboard, something like Danes board" - Kolohe Andino. The challenge was laid down. Starting with an old SD2 We squashed the dimensions to 5ft 5 x 18.63 x 2.13, lowered the entry rocker and shallowed the concave through the center to straighten the rail line (for drive) and make it easier to lay such a wide platform over on a rail. Voila! Our stubbiest shortboard yet, but it still carves like a real board. Kolohe wanted to call it "The Trashcan Lid" because you don't need to go dumpster diving to get one of these! Shaper Matt Biolos reckons you should ride your Sub Scorcher 4-6 inches shorter than your performance shortboard.

Indeed, Winslet slipped in without too much of a media maelstrom, as did quiet Ellen Page, who was awarded Breakthrough Performance by an Actress for her role in "Juno." Page, 20, is getting used to the schmoozing an award-winning performance requires. The only thing, said the actress, whose acceptance speech was peppered with words like "awesome" and "friggin'": "I wish I was more articulate."
Casey Affleck, who received Best Supporting Actor for "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford," was plenty articulate when he razzed his older brother Ben before presenting him with the Best Directorial Debut prize for "Gone Baby Gone." But the younger Affleck, unlike his brother it appears, definitely considers himself among those for whom award ceremonies are the ugliest part of the business. "What would I rather be doing? I'd rather be doing anything other than talking about what I'd rather be doing," he said.
But leave it to Clooney to get the biggest laugh of the night and use his friends' unease to his advantage. "Here's the most fun thing," he said with a wide grin before presenting the Coen brothers with the Best Adapted Screenplay trophy, their second award of the night. "These guys hate this. They're the worst you've ever seen at this. They'll come up here, they won't look at you, they'll look at each other, shuffle around, it's like 'March of the Penguins.' Ethan won't talk and Joel'll say something like 'Thanks, man.' So enjoy yourselves."

The next day the ship arrived at Seyruun harbor. The passengers had gathered together as they were leaving, Katiana still holding the bunny doll close to herself as her guardian demon stood behind her.
"So where shall we go first in Seyruun?" Xelloss asked.
"We aren't going anywhere. I want some time to explore Seyruun for myself." Katiana replied sharply.
"Now, now, Miss Kati, on the ship was one thing you couldn't go far." Xelloss wagged his forefinger. "But in this city is a different story. I must remain close to you."
"It's a holy city for crying out loud!" Katiana protested. "Shouldn't that protect me a bit- Oh wait if that barrier was that good you'd be expelled out wouldn't you?" she twisted her mouth. "Must only work on the really pathetic monsters then."
Xelloss looked insulted at that. "Being both a priest and general, I do happen to be one of the str

The Search For Lina Inverse Chapter 1
"Xelloss… Come forth now."
She called for me as she always did, a booming voice in my head buzzed and immediately I traveled the Astral Plane to her side. I appeared before her, she was in her human form sitting upon her throne. I bowed as I stood on one knee as I usually did. "Lord Beast Master, you summoned me?"
"Xelloss, I want you to find Lina Inverse for me." My Lord Zelas commanded. "There is something I need to know."
Lina Inverse? The human that destroyed Hell Master Phibrizzo, a piece of Lord Ruby Eye along with his ghost, aided in the destruction of Dark Star and many more? What could she want with her? … Could it be the final confrontation I've longed warned Miss Lina about? For some reason the thought of that human lifeless in my arms didn't appeal to me like it should… In fact I frowned at the thought of never feeling her anger or rage again… Or another headlock.

Trucy Wright still practiced her magic acts while her father and half brother practiced law.
"Daddy are you really sure you want to be a lawyer again?" Trucy sighed with her hands on her hips. The girl of 16 shook her head. "I mean when you lost your badge it took a big toll on you at first "
Phoenix chuckled. "Yes but it's been acknowledged that it wasn't really my fault with that incident, and honestly as it's been pointed out I seem to belong in the courtroom."
"Is that why you finally cleaned yourself up?" Apollo remarked. "That medium woman remarked you looked like your old self last month when she visited."
Apollo was correct on this, Wright for a while had sorta let himself go, looking almost living on the street style and barel

Zelgadis had come here to do some research in the town's chimera research, but he never would have guessed his path would cross hers again.
The chimera man had just arrived in town, his hood up as usual to not attract attention when he heard a very low, very annoying, and very familiar female voice barking at the waiter while stuffing her face.
"Get me another round and make it snappy!" Lina Inverse, the beautiful sorceress was eating at a rapid rate as usual, but she was alone. Zel wasn't used to seeing this usually Gourry was with her…
"I see you still behave like a child, long time no see Lina." Zelgadis chuckled as he approached her.
"Oh hey Zel!" Lina perked up slightly. "What brings you here? Another clue towards your cure?"
"Yeah, I had heard that they did chimera research in this town." Zelgadis shrugged his shoulders. "What about you? And where's Gourry?"

Sylphiel Nels Lahda sighed as she arrived in the city of Seyruun, while she had been working on rebuilding her city of Sairaag she still had shrine maiden duties here, and she had received word she was needed here today on a job. She smiled and approached the palace that the guards knew her face well after the more recent battle against Zanaffar a little over a year ago. She then noticed several servants were all around, and the castle was rather dressed up.
"Is there some kind of event going on?" Sylphiel asked one of the servants.
"There's a wedding being held today." One of the maids answered. "Princess Amelia wants us to make sure everything is just right."
"Amelia is getting married?" Sylphiel gasped.
"No, her friend Lina Inverse." The maid answered.
"Oh." The priestess said as she held her breath. "… Who is she marrying?" she shivered just a bit, hoping it wasn't who she thought
RollZero's Megaman X Series
Prologue: The Discovery of X
The year is 21XX. Humans live in peace alongside mass-produced, highly-intelligent robots called "Reploids." However, no technology available has been able to completely eliminate the potential danger that comes with robots running on artificial intelligence. As a result, malfunctions have started occurring, leading Reploids to start attacking humans.
There have been many such cases...
These Reploids, having exceeded the bounds of their AI protocols, are called "Mavericks." And in order to round them up and protect humans from the Maverick threat, the Maverick Hunters team was formed. Among the Maverick Hunters, one Reploid in particular stood out from the crowd as the most advanced Hunter of them all. His name is Sigma. "Reploids of the world! Take up arms and unite! Now is the time for revolution!"
Out of the blue, this was Sigma's call to arms, igniting a large-scale rebellion across the globe. But a small team o

The ruler of Wolfpack Island drummed her long, slender fingers on her throne as she smirked at her favorite servant. "Yes Xelloss, I have a task for you. I need you to protect a certain person…"
"A bodyguard mission my lord?" Xelloss raised his eyebrow. "Is another one like Lina Inverse showing the interest of Lord Dolphin or Lord Dynast?"
"No, nothing like that Xelloss." Zelas chuckled, waving her hand. "This person and her attribute that makes her special is… A secret, one that I'd like to keep under the radar and keep her protected until she is needed." She smirked.
"Who is she?" the violet haired priest asked.

Pragmatism. He stared at it, written small on the corner of the sheet, a bit of ink on an ocean of blank white. With a lazy script, he added: hysteria. These, among other things, were paradoxes. This he knew. So, too, were poets, souls, and the general idea of higher education at the expense of his mental health. His invention was gone; he'd run himself bone-dry and now, as he laid these words on the sneering paper before him, he considered quitting. Truly, honestly weighed the costs of simply not going back. What sort of future had he paved for himself, anyway? This whole ordeal was the ugly product of spite. A stupid, stupid waste of time, all in the name of spite. His knuckles tightened and the paper bunched under his curled fingers, crackling in self-pity. He nearly threw it, but thought better of it; he stood and tossed it into the trashcan.

Weeds, pt. I. The Earth was still turning the morning the seed of an idea was planted in the mind of one Florian Moor. It was improbable that it would have grown at all, for it took root in a dark, remote corner of his mind; the frequency of his watering it was erratic and inconsistent. Logic would have it that his idea would have withered, but it was a weed, and weeds are notoriously invasive. One can ignore a weed, but quietly and quickly, that weed becomes many weeds, and a problem arises: the roots of the weeds tangle with the roots of the flowers, so that they are inseparable. You can kill the weeds, but not without killing the flowers.
Before this seed was sewn, there was a time where poverty, rather than war, was what preoccupied the consciousnesses of the majority. It was June; Florian sat in the narrow shade of a rotting eave, feeling the heat of the sun touch his bare feet as the shadow pulled in closer to the eastern wall of the shanty. He was sta

First pick up a grav lift from the small building near where you fight the scarab. Now proceed through the level until you reach the second sloping hallway (stairway), you should see some partitioned risers (platforms) halfway down. The skull is on the top level. Toss the grav-lift on the right side of the hall so it lands on the fourth little green dot from the door. Then run, jump, and use the grav-lift to propel you to the top. You should reach a ckeckpoint just as you enter the room so it you miss just try again.

- lastminutereservationDined on 11/22/2014At first, we were hesitant to go here after we made a reservation. At 7:00pm on a Saturday night, there were about 3 people in the whole restaurant. However, after walking around and being unable to get in anywhere else without an hour long wait, we decided to give it a try. Boy, are we glad we did! It was actually pretty nice that the place was so empty. You were able to hear the conversation easily without much background noise. The waiter was very helpful and attentive, even though he appeared to be the only one working (and was even the bartender too!). Food was up to our standards, although nothing fancy, I even recall making the comment "I probably could have made something like this at home" but still enjoyable. The drinks were probably our favorite part, a shoutout to the ginger pomegranate mojito! We finished with the chocolate mousse cake, which was exquisite. Overall, we decided this place was worth coming back to just for the low key neighborhood charm!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The following 143 reviews are from the Slate - Philadelphia reviews archive.
- Modest selection of very good foodNJdinerDined on 6/19/2014We were disappointed that the mussels were not available, but the calamari, crab cake and short rib mac'n'cheese were all very good. Nice selection of draft beers. We appreciated the discount for people attending a local theatre. Good choice; we'll return.
- Disappointing bruncharia13Dined on 6/15/2014We had brunch on Father's Day. We should have known there was a problem because the place was almost empty at 12:30 for Brunch.Our food and drinks were average at best. The waitress/bartender was brand new and alone--so she was more than a little scattered. My husband ordered scrambled eggs and bacon. He got a fried egg and no bacon. He asked for the bacon (twice) to be delivered and well done. When it arrived it wasn't well done but at this point he was just happy to get his food. My friend had a special order on her meal and that did appear to come out as ordered but she said it was ok but not great. We live in the city and this is the first and last time we'll try Slate.
- LackingMikeVIPDined on 4/12/2014Empty on a Saturday night when all other nearby restaurants were busy. Service was mediocre. Waitresses also bartended. Food was adequate, but nothing special. Most was bland, watery - lacked flavor and depth. No wonder why it was not crowded.
- food ok; service was awful; stay awjpb6570VIPDined on 4/11/2014We got there at 8, waited over an hour for appetizers; waitress repeatedly messed up the drink orders; several appetizers and entrees were served very late, after the rest of the table. we were standing up with our coats on waiting for the waitress to finally bring the check after numerous requests. oh, we were the only table dining and there were four people at the bar. I have never experienced service that bad and then presented with a check with 18% gratuity added. The service was so bad that I almost refused to pay. I will never go back and will tell everyone I know to avoid this place.
- Excellent FoodHappifeet2Dined on 3/29/2014We found Slate through OpenTable and we were definitely not disappointed! We were a group of 7 and they easily accommodated us. They food was absolutely fantastic! The menu was slightly smaller than some might expect, but it was worth it. Everyone found something to order and no one was less than fanatic about their dishes! The kitchen was happy to make any substitutions or modifications and everything was spectacular. Definitely highly recommend!Special Features:
- Hidden Neighborhood GemUrbaneFoodieDined on 3/1/2014Made an impromptu reservation, and left completely stuffed! Great food, the service was on point and the atmosphere was quaint and relaxing. There were a few interesting specials to choose from. We settled on the Duck and Goat Cheese Spring Roll...they were AMAZING! The Short Rib Mac and Cheese was good and the Lamb Burger was perfectly seasoned. The bartender was definitely liberal with the alcohol. Overall, it was a great experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- waiting, waiting, still waiting...jellybeanDined on 2/15/2014We had 7pm reservations, and didn't eat until close to 9. Yes, we enjoyed our appetizers, but then waiting forever for our main entrees. We were a party of 4, and no one ordered anything crazy or complicated. Not sure why on earth it took 2 hours. They were apologetic and offered us a shot to compensate for the wait, but considering we already had time for two rounds of cocktails, a shot wasn't needed, our food was. We barely made it in time for the 10pm show we had tickets for. Otherwise food was decent.
- Nice!JaimiKDined on 2/14/2014This place is absolutely precious. If it wasn't the food that won me over, the atmosphere would absolutely win me over. I went here with a friend for valentine's day and we weren't hungry enough to eat an entree, so we just ate two appetizers (short rib mac n' cheese, and crab cake). It was all fantastic! The short rib mac n' cheese was delicious! And their drinks were phenomenal. AND, the service was amazing. I give it about an 8.5 out of 10. The crab cake wasn't mind-blowing, but the rest of it was. Hope everyone goes here for a chill romantic night out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- We made a last minute reservationOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 2/7/2014We made a last minute reservation for a Friday evening because of location mostly. We were attending another event in Rittenhouse later that evening & didn't want to have to re-park our cars. This was a nice surprise. The food was really tasty. We were actually even late for our reservation & the staff didn't give us a hard time about it. I'll definitely go to Slate again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Slate wins on an icy eveningOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 2/5/2014I recently met a friend at Slate for dinner. It was the evening of one of the recent winter weather messes. Although not crowded Slate was open and ready to serve. Their beer and wine lineup was not extensive yet had some solid players. The food was awesome, many fresh local ingredients. We started with a vegetable/Italian spring roll; unsure what to expect we were both pleasantly surprised. I chose a talapia special covered in scallops and crab meat. Being a waterman and budding cook, I have to say it hit the spot. With it being a quiet night the owner and waitress were both very personable. We chatted for a bit at the bar prior to sitting down. Overall, I'd say the food, drinks and service make for a winning combinationSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- disappointingJimDDined on 2/1/2014We chose Slate for a birthday dinner, while we were out in that part of town for a few events. While the staff was great, the food was not. Their special of lobster bisque was actually really good, but the filet I ordered tasted like hamburger. The potatoes could have come from a box, and the vegetables were overcooked and without any real flavor. We also ordered the short rib mac&cheese, and it was a let down. There was about an inch of oil in the bottom of the dish, the meat was quite dry and tough, and the pasta/cheese was only ok. One of the salads we ordered was just bland and not very good, so they took it off our bill, which was nice of them. The drinks were very reasonable though, so I wouldn't mind going back for those.
- Who knew?FlyerfanrnDined on 1/31/2014I didn't even know this place existed until I went on open table and found it. We only had appetizers but they were delicious. The Escargot was amazing! Buttered scallops so tender. The berry drink I had was so good. I highly recommend this place.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MISSED OPPORTUNITYelaineVIPDined on 1/12/2014It is hard to write a fair review - Several of us decided to go to brunch a few days ago. I picked this restaurant because of its proximity to where we all live. None of us had ever been here before. We decided to order cocktails first and asked for the mimosas which had a choice of mango and a few others. Only one of the juices was available. They were out of the others. My friend asked for a bloody Mary but the server told us they were out of Bloody Mary mix. It seemed as though everything we asked for was not available. How could a restaurant that serves brunch be out of everything to make typical brunch cocktails? Food was fine (egg dishes), no desserts on the brunch menu, coffee tasted as though it was decaf. Server was excellent.
- Great FoodKatieDined on 12/6/2013Although Slate has a pretty small menu, everything we had was really good. We started out with the baked goat cheese which was some of the best I've ever had. We also has the mussels, which were OK, but nothing amazing. For dinner I had the lamb burger (it was a special that night) and it was really good, really juicy and flavorful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Must try!Killian0909Dined on 11/23/2013Wonderful food, and the owner came over to talk about our dinner. I would recommend you try this great restaurant!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- underwhelmedMattDined on 11/20/2013Everything was okay, but nothing left us wanting more. I remember getting the scallops on figs puree, and while they were good i don't think i'd order them again. The truffle fries are good if you're into that sort of thing.
- Great find!OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/9/2013The menu was not overwhelming but inclusive and diverse . Most of our party had different entrees and all were complimentary of what they had. Staff was attentive and accommodating. Will definitely go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Brunch was yummyOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 11/9/2013Selection was a bit limited but everything we had was very tasty. Plan o go vack for dinner..Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Enjoyed the company!LuckylisaDined on 11/8/2013We dined at Slate before a show. They were respectful of our time constraints. Food was good, service, sweet but not very well versed.Special Features:
- Good brunchZorro68Dined on 10/27/20136 of us had brunch here before the theatre. I had the eggs Benedict florentine and asked for my eggs well poached. They came out perfect, not runny but not hard boiled. It came with home fries, more like home made potato chips and a salad. Dishes ordered ranged from eggs, French toast and burgers. Everyone said their food was very good. Service was good and the server was very attentive in asking for coffee refills. Person having tea said water was only lukewarm, but when having a second cup asked for hotter water and they did comply. Table next to us was very loud but fortunately they left before our breakfast was served. Prices were fairly low for the area.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Apps and DrinksMrBlueSkiesVIPDined on 7/27/2013Four of us went on a Saturday night. The decor is pleasant enough with a small bar and extra seating in a side room. It was relatively empty for 7:00 on a Saturday. Service was very friendly and attentive. We tried several drinks from the drink special menu. I really enjoyed the Slate Manhattan. We ordered a variety of appetizers. The duck and goat cheese eggrolls were wonderful. We tried a variety of appetizers and enjoyed them all except for the scallops. The scallops were cooked nicely but they come with a very thick and sweet jam which overpowered the scallops. We also ordered the cheese and spinach stuffed lamb burger with truffle fries. The lamb burger was absolutely delicious. The truffle fries were crisp and hot.Special Features:
- Still there after many yearsReidVIPDined on 7/16/2013Well, the best I can say was everything was good, not outstanding. Sauces were a bit heavy. If we lived in the neighborhood we might go back. But we don't.
- Great all aroundOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 6/23/2013Found this place when looking for some place for dinner near a comedy club. What a find! The decor was very stylish and contemporary, the service was terrific. The food was stunning. I had Hanger Steak and my friend had the Cornish game hen. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. I would definitely go back and reccomend for anyone looking for a good meal and a nice atmosphere.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- We went here for Mother'sOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 5/12/2013We went here for Mother's Day. The place only had two other groups to wait on and yet service was abysmal. The food took forever to arrive and after an hour when everyone finally got their food, my mother's food still hadn't arrived. They forgot to place her order! When it finally did come, it wasn't what she had ordered. Thanks for a great Mother's Day, guys! We will definitely not recommend this place to anyone.
- Less than Diner QualityDinearoundDined on 5/10/2013If "comfort food" means cooking without distinction, Slate has succeeded. The food here was mediocre at best, and overpriced for what tasted like frozen and/or pre-packaged offerings. My "stuffed" lamb burger was skimpy and had none of the promised feta cheese stuffing, while the accompanying truffle dusted fries were soggy. The key lime pie I ordered for dessert tasted like it came right out of the bakery department of my local grocery store. This modest meal, plus two glasses of house wine, set me back more than $50. My two dining companions' meals didn't look any better. Noise reverberates off the walls in this bare-bones atmosphere, trying to come off as hip, and the service is equally uninspired.
- We sat outside on a nice evening.OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 4/27/2013We sat outside on a nice evening. Portions are small for the price paid. Tables were a bit wobbly, but we guess that is to be expected with outdoor furniture. Overall the food was good but we feel the experience could have been enhanced with a little better service. Thanks.
- Delightful food, friendly,NonniedDined on 4/25/2013Delightful food, friendly, knowledgeable and attentive wait staff. We will dine there again soon.Special Features:
- Fun bar. Great food. ThisdjphlVIPDined on 4/13/2013Fun bar. Great food. This restaurant is such a sleeper and I'm not sure why. Food is always great. Drinks and bar scene are terrific also.Special Features:
- Slate is a nice little restaurantindiedogDined on 3/23/2013Slate is a nice little restaurant convenient to local theaters and comedy clubs. It has a good bar selection and reasonable prices. The initial service was quick, but our waitress oddly didn't check back about refilling our empty wine glasses and when we flagged someone down it still took quite awhile for the place only being half full. The calamari was very good, and our entrees were good. Not actually remarkable, but good. No idea if they have dessert, again our waitress didn't ask.Special Features:
- Yummy and relaxedOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 3/22/2013Three of us went to Slate for a pre-theatre dinner on a Friday. Intimate setting. Wait staff was terrific. The Slate Stuffed Burger (burger stuffed w short ribs, mushrooms, blue cheese) was scrumptious. Bangers and Mash very tasty. Service was excellent. We're not drinkers so can't rate the bar. Definitely would go back again. Thanks Slate!
- Our waitress was also theOpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 3/20/2013Our waitress was also the bartender which caused her to be inattentive to the table. We both ordered steaks and were not provided with steak knives so had to ask for them.
- We chose Slate based on otherOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 3/2/2013We chose Slate based on other Open Table reviews and we were not disappointed! Everything about our visit was outstanding. For starters we had the short rib mac and cheese and a special, duck confit and goat cheese spring rolls with a mild chipotle sauce. Both were full of flavor. Next we had the flank steak with parmesan fries and scallops with fig jam(another starter.) The flank steak was tender and the fries were addictive. The scallops were perfectly cooked and just the right balance of salty and sweet. We just barely had room to share the chocolate mousse cake for dessert, but somehow ate every bite. The wait staff and host were welcoming, friendly, and efficient. Highly recommended!Special Features:
- Great find just off RittenhouseRDTRDined on 2/16/2013A friend and I went for dinner before an 8pm show on a Saturday. This restaurant is very conveniently located near the Adrienne and the Comedy Club on Sansom St. Our waitress was brand new, however, the Bartender was very knowledgeable about the menu and wine pairings, and a manager came out while we were eating to check on us. We ordered the lobster bisque, mussels, the veggie pasta and the mahi mahi (daily special). Everything was tremendous -- even from the very beginning: the bread they gave us came with a gorgeously aromatic rosemary olive oil that was delightful. The sides for the mahi mahi included truffled mashed potatoes, which while decadent were absolutely amazing. I'd definitely return.Special Features:
- Totally lovely brunch. GreatribloversDined on 2/10/2013Totally lovely brunch. Great waitstaff. We came in for a birthday brunch and all agreed that it was a great time. Food was terrific ad the bread pudding and carrot cake brought for my friend's birthday were unbelievable!Special Features:
- We were a party of 5. TheMSKLVIPDined on 9/30/2012We were a party of 5. The place was empty when we arrived for a 6:30pm reservation. We were surprised as the reviews from Open Table were favorable and the windows were adorned with customer choice awards etc. We were a bit hesitant to stay, but we did. The food was average and my salmon had to be returned for more cooking. I think the emptiness of the restaurant put us on guard and we tended to be anxious about the food. Perhaps we would have had a better all round experience if the vibe had been better..
- a gem NW of Rittenhouse. ExcellenthuntingtonianDined on 9/15/2012a gem NW of Rittenhouse. Excellent food, great staff.Special Features:
- Salmon was cooked to perfection,pamkVIPDined on 9/15/2012Salmon was cooked to perfection, good flavors with wonderful salads to start. Service was attentive and helpful without intrusion. Would certainly go again.Special Features:
- Tuesday night...Not a good nightFussyGDined on 9/11/2012As it was a Tuesday evening, it was a slow night for this restaaurant. The food was ok, they had one desert available...said because it was Tuesday. Maybe it is better on a different night of the week but I will not be returning
- Hidden GemOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/8/2012What a pleasant surprise! We didn't know much about Slate before we dined there, and everything about it was wonderful. It is a lovely space. It was very quiet for a Saturday night which left us with attentive service and a nice environment to talk. When we tasted the food we knew we'd be back. Every dish was delicious, from the calamari to the bangers and mash; the salmon and the crabcake were great too, as were the cornish game hen and the spare ribs & mac. Our server took very good care of us with our wine selection also. We can't wait to return.Special Features:

Myth #3: Lamaze childbirth means you can't have an epidural
Reality: Lamaze classes provide information about natural pain relief options as well as epidural anesthesia. Eliminating pain completely makes it difficult to respond to contractions in ways that facilitate labor and birth. Women who have epidural anesthesia are required to have IV fluids and continuous monitoring. They may be encouraged to stay in bed and may need medications to increase the strength of her contractions. The ability to use many of the comfort techniques learned in Lamaze classes, such as changing positions, walking, and hydrotherapy may be limited. Lamaze education will assist women in making personal decisions that are right for them.
Myth #4: Lamaze doesn't work
Reality: Lamaze that "works" has nothing to do with feeling pain, taking or avoiding medication, or developing complications that necessitate medical interventions. Lamaze teaches women that nature has designed birth simply and close to perfectly and that women already know how to give birth. Lamaze is working if women trust the natural process of birth, have confidence in their ability to give birth, have the freedom to work with their bodies as labor progresses, and are supported by health care providers, family and friends who wait patiently for nature to do its incredible work. Lamaze "works" if birth is allowed to work.
Myth #5: Lamaze is not for everyone
Reality: Women have always prepared for the birth of their babies. Until recent times, women learned about birth from their own mothers and sisters. Birth took place at home with family rituals and traditions to help them feel confident in their ability to give birth. Women were surrounded by family and wise women who provided comfort and encouragement through labor and in the days and weeks after birth. Today, Lamaze childbirth classes provide the knowledge, skills, and support that help women give birth with confidence and joy as they have done for centuries. Lamaze preparation is for everyone!

Pros: -> It sticks very well to glass surfaces, and stays there if its properly tightened. Was able to hold my NEXUS 4 and never fell after I learned how to secure it. -> The suction cup tightening system is very clever; you just hold the thing in place and rotate its base, then it is locked. -> I'm ...

Pros: The clip securely holds phones of almost any size. I tested it with an Iphone as well as Note 3. The spring loaded clip does a nice job. Cons: the pivot point between the suction cup and cellphone holder is the weak point in this product. No matter how much you tighten the screws, the phone still ... Read more
Good to mount, fast delivery and easily to fit. Great! price is also good. it sticks very easily to the window No cons at all except the holder should be a bit larger because all the phones are getting bigger so's they're easier to fit in the holder. could't think about more cons. The holder could me ... Read more
I love the fact that it's super compact, more than pretty much all the other holders. This makes transporting it very easy but, most importantly, it blocks much less than other chargers. I'm not a fan of the system it uses to grasp the phone, other holders do it better. This one makes it a little hard ... Read more
Small Light Strong - holds the attached plate very well Extensible - tested on samsung galaxy s4 and htc desire - works great on both None observed One can complain that it shakes a bit while holding your phone, but hey - it's super light so no wonder! It's simply great I've been looking for this kind ... Read more
Is very cheap, i consider the item have a very strong fixation, the retractable arm to fit the GPS or cellphone was great, because you can chance always your device. Sometimes depending of the road condition the cell phone may shake, but nothing that you have to worry about. Maybe because of the heat ... Read more
light, simple to use, works as advertised, supports heavy devices, does not take up much space. Very easy to mount any type of phone. not entirely clear how you need to turn in order for the suction to work, but easy to derive with experimentation. Not especially easy to insert your phone, but not too ... Read more
Small and simple to use. Easy to hide in your pocket or anywhere in your car (e.g. glove compartment). Didn't hold at at my car's window. It always disconnected after ~10 minutes of driving. :( This made the product unusable. Additionally when I wanted to use it after a long time it was in my car's glove ... Read more
Pros: This is a neat phone holder that attaches nicely to the windshield. The clamp grip makes it easy to insert and remove the phone, yet has a firm grip when the phone is in place. The swivel is also useful when you want to tilt the phone horizontally. The price is very good for something of this quality.... Read more
Small, good grip, easy to change to landscape/portrait mode. Includes a pad with sticking foam that can be mounted on the dashboard. The ball joint gets weak after a while (for me after about a year of use). You can tweak it a bit by tightening the 2 screws though. I think the one i received this time ... Read more

Nate Marquardt wants to get back into title contention in the middleweight division, but he'll first have to go through BJJ specialist Rousimar Palhares to do it.
Randy Couture is nearing the half-century mark, but that doesn't mean he's slowing down any time soon. In fact, Couture still has championship aspirations.
The UFC adds another Massachusetts native to the card for its first foray into Boston.

I worked at Cisco Systems as a contractorPros
Cisco is definitely the #1 computer networking company in the world, and there are plenty of opportunities to do fun things in that field. Much of the company's growth is through buying smaller start-ups, although there are plenty of people who have been with Cisco for 10-20 years and would never consider leaving.Cons
Given Cisco's size, they tend to be rather bureaucratic and don't always do things in a "modern" way. Some of the software development infrastructure is getting old, although there are certainly attempts to modernize it.
They tend to cut 5-10% of their work force each year, which is bad if you're not a very high-performing person.RecommendsNeutral OutlookApproves of CEO

It's autumn at my little home.
My lady always has plenty of help when she wants to clean the barn. She wishes someone would help her move the mud out of the paddock. The mud-moving-man is very slooow in coming over to do that!
Mokey gets very close to the muck cart. My lady tells him not to put himself where he might get hurt if he has to move quickly. He doesn't care. He likes to help. My lady has to move that cart around the barn to make sure everyone doesn't get into trouble.
Mokey is very cute. He's been enjoying being an outdoor horse and he loves to roll in the dirt.
Nozzy always has to look to see if that's food in the cart. Nope! It's horse manure.
Lots of help. ha haaa
Sarah likes to stand in the doorway of the stall and then she gets a hug before my lady asks her to move so she can get in there to clean.
This is what Nigel said when my lady told him to move out of the way.
Mokey gets lots of hugs. He's very sweet.
Naughty Nozzy thinks he can drive the cart.
I'm always a good help when my lady cleans my house too. hee hee
What would she do without us?

As training camp began at Oklahoma, quarterback Landry Jones had only one receiver present who had ever caught one of his passes before in a game. That hasn't kept one of the NCAA's most productive passers ever from another prolific season. Plugging transfers and freshmen into the lineup, the 14th-ranked Sooners (8-2, 6-1 Big 12) are averaging 334 yards passing. That puts them eighth in the nation, even though four other teams from the pass-happy Big 12 are in front of them. That includes No. 22 Oklahoma State (7-3, 5-2), the Sooners' opponent this Saturday in the Bedlam rivalry game. Junior Kenny Stills was the only returning receiver available after All-American Ryan Broyles departed for the NFL and coach Bob Stoops suspended three others - Kameel Jackson, Trey Franks and Jaz Reynolds. Jackson decided to transfer, but questions about when the others might return from suspension have faded away as their replacements have made them afterthoughts. Senior Justin Brown...

I agree igoudge. Apparently the city will be building a new west end court house on this site. Just waiting for final approval. But you are right, would have made a perfect Rainbow cinema all these years!
Actually probably a perfect location for a restaurant considering it's right on the airport strip with all those airport hotels and restaurants. It's now a Jack Astor's and Canyon Creek. Still miss it as a theatre though.
I like all the AMC "multiplex" theatres in the Toronto area. They are comfortable, have all the amenities and are not noisy, garish with that carnival atmosphere that the others have, especially the former Famous Players locations.
Mine too Jon. Much classier than all the others, and a great location too!
That's a beautiful picture. But it's actually the old Odeon Carlton which has it's own site on Cinema Treasures and not the current Carlton Cinemas that is next door to where the original Odeon Carlton was.
Were the new additions added on to the north side of the original theatre? Towards W 2nd St.? Just trying to figure out from satellite shot which parts of the buildings make up the 9 screens.
Still miss these theatres alot. Wish they had been turned into a 2nd run house that Toronto sorely lacks but other cities have such as the Cinema City theatres in Winnipeg or Movies 12 in Edmonton. Still boggles the mind that no major theatre chain in Canada has matinee pricing before 6pm like most major chains do in the U.S. This 13 screen theatre was perfect for watching movies even though it didn't have stadium seating. Would have made a fantastic 2nd run theatre at lower prices.
Thanks CW, always wondered about that.
Was this theatre pronounced "SINstage" or "SIN-EHstage"??
Always wondered, what does Cine mean? Is it short for cinema? Seems to be on the names of alot of the Wehrenberg theatres. Is it pronounced "sin" or "sin-eh"?
Humber is STILL sitting there empty after all these years. What a shame. Made a great "neighbourhood" theatre, something Toronto is sorely lacking.
That may be the case. I've always wondered about that since "Coliseum" was such a signature brand with Famous Players, I would have thought that Cineplex would have wanted to keep all theatres with that name.
I thought that the Rainbow Market Square 6 in downtown Toronto was also one of the "original" Cineplex theatres, having opened around 1981 or '82 and before Canadian Odeon taking over Cineplex theatres.
I always found some of the theatres sold to Empire to be very curious indeed. How for instance was Cineplex able to keep BOTH the Devonshire Mall cinemas and SilverCity Windsor which are very close together and more or less show the very same films. Also why would Cineplex give up the Coliseum Calgary which is one of their very own brands to Empire? It's like in the U.S. when AMC took over Loews Cineplex and had to sell off certain theatres, they kept BOTH the AMC River East 21 and the AMC Loews 600 North Michigan 9 which are mere blocks apart and now dominate the downtown scene in Chicago.
Hurray, Shea's is finally in here! If it hadn't been torn down for the new City Hall, I've always imagined that Shea's would have lasted in to the 60s, 70s and maybe beyond…maybe even multi-plexed like the Imperial Six, or the Uptown 5.
Correct CW. By 1982 the College theatre at College & Dovercourt was long gone, replaced with stores and apartments above them. The second College photo is of one on College in the Chinatown area, near Spadina Ave.
What a shame. Wouldn't it be nice if Rainbow Cinemas or Encore Cinemas took this over so it could continue to be a theatre? Too bad there are not enough of these less expensive but perfectly fine theatres around the GTA anymore. Also wish that Rainbow had taken over the Upper James in Hamilton as well.
Thanks CW for all your help. The Lakeshore looks quite different now, has been real estate and lawyers offices for years. Fits in to the neighbourhood quite well.
Perfect. Now if they could only change the Odeon Danforth back to "single screen".
The listing for this should be changed back to single screen then.
Ok, for the reccord….the picture is of the Odeon Lakeshore in New Toronto…it was formerly known as the Biltmore New Toronto until December of 1963 when Odeon bought 3 former Biltmore theatres…the Savoy downtown became the Odeon Coronet…the Biltmore Weston, became the Odeon Weston and the Biltmore New Toronto became the Odeon Lakeshore because of it's location on Lakeshore Blvd. I went there several times and it closed with the name of Odeon Lakeshore. It is now offices. I've lived in Toronto my whole life as CWalczak says and remember many of these theatres very well. There was an Odeon theatre on Queen St W in the Parkdale area of Toronto but that was part of the 20th Century theatre chain.
That picture is of the Odeon HYLAND at Yonge & St Clair. The Odeon DANFORTH was never twinned. It was sold by Odeon before any twinning could be done.
Love, love, love the Cinerama series Michael, keep up the great work! Look forward to it every week.
Exactly Jon…too bad someone couldn't have saved the old Uptown the same way. Then we could have had the Elgin/Winter Garden, Canon and Uptown all on Yonge St and all showing travelling shows! By the way have NEVER liked the name Canon Theatre…still always call it the Pantages. I would have preferred the Canon-Pantages like the Cadillac Palace in Chicago.
The best thing they did for Toronto…the glorious Pantages theatre (now known as the Canon). It's an absolute gem.

This month marks the public television premiere of a very important film, Race to Nowhere. Vicki Abeles' provocative documentary tells the story of children, parents and teachers who are increasingly frustrated by an educational system pushing our kids to breaking point. As a pediatrician and a parent, I am heartbroken by the growing number of kids I see with anxiety, depression and mind-body ailments like ulcers and migraines associated with the stress of just trying to keep up. Shockingly, some of these children are in elementary school.

Little Gasparilla Island Cottage Rental Photos and Description
Key West style Bungalow - 2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath, (Sleeps 4)
Take a water taxi or bring your own boat to heavenly 'Little Gasparilla Island'. (LGI)
'Peacock Lane Cottage' is a beachfront cottage on a private bridge-less island only accessible by boat. There are no roads, stores, cars -- only winding sand paths and lanes that you can explore by foot or cart. Take a few steps out the front door and you have 7 miles of secluded unspoiled beach to experience.
Enjoy beautiful views of the Gulf of Mexico and incredible sunsets from the front and rear decks of this tastefully furnished cottage. Fall asleep each night to the sound of the surf. The best part about this cottage is that it's an incredibly romantic place or the perfect family getaway.
Bring all your goodies with you because there are no services on the island, but if you need some entertainment or food you are only a ten minute ride by water taxi back to the marina on the mainland.
Water taxis run from 8am-5pm. (Later or earlier pickups with prior arrangement) If you bring a boat, we have a very good deep water dock that is shared by just our lane and just a quick walk to the cottage. We offer a 'complimentary' Golf Cart concierge service. If requested, you will be picked up at the dock and brought to the cottage and have help bringing your belongings inside. (Specific details available upon request)
Get a world class tan, collect shells and sharks teeth on one of the best shelling beaches around, (especially after a storm) help your kids make the best sand castle ever, sit on the porch swing and hold your lover's hand, explore, eat, drink, laugh, read, nap, swim, run, or have a treasure hunt! 'There is a lot to do on this island that has nothing to do!'
Finally for the fishermen out there, we are the epicenter of the state's best inshore and offshore fishing; tarpon, snook, redfish, shark, grouper and snapper just to name a few. Bring your fishing poles and fire up the BBQ grill!
