4.2/5 rDev +6.1%
look: 4.25 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25
Poured from a bottle into a snifter, the beer is almost jet black, with a tan, frothy, foamy, light tan head that settles quickly into a halo of head. Aromas of dark roasted coffee, bittersweet dark chocolate, molasses, charred wood, caramel, hints of smoke, and earthy notes. Very heavy and rich nose. Wow. Flavors are heavily roasted forward, but with more of a blended flavor profile, with the bitter coffee forming a solid backbone, and bittersweet chocolate, caramel, and some creamy sweet notes providing balance. Very tasty and very drinkable. The 9.5% ABV is hidden very well beneath the layers of this brew. More richly sweet notes come out as you drink, with molasses dark sugary sweetness and caramel highlights darting in and out. Earthy notes, and even some hints of tobacco, rough the edges up enough to really define each sip, and allow you to appreciate the experience. Smooth, slightly heavy, and layered body, with a bitter, roasted, and chocolate laden aftertaste. The finish is smooth, with a slightly dry, bitter undertone. This is a beast, and well worth searching out.

look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 3.75
2013 vintage. Tasted 10 March 2014.
Pours black and thick, just a bit of brown at the very edges. 1.5 fingers of deep brown head; good retention, excellent lacing. Pretty darn solid.
Smell is on the faint side for a big stout. What's there is rich, woody and mildly sweet roasted malts. Some cocoa, a bit of coffee, and a hint of char. But mostly it's rich and deep and sweet.
Taste is really nice at times, a little lacking at others. The first sip gushes with coffee and milk chocolate, followed by a touch of woody char. But other sips come through thin and just not all that flavorful. It's half really good, half meh.
Feel is excellent. Thick and chewy, as it should be, with carbonation that spikes and then fades, setting things in motion and then backing off to let the flavors play their roles. Stellar.
A good imperial stout. It has some strong character, but a few weak patches in the smell and taste bring it down for me. If it were as good across the board as it is at its peak, it would be outstanding.

A - pours a thick motoroilesque dark brown With half a finger of rich darker chocolate head. Good retention, OK lacing.
S - rich chocolate, rosary almost mildly smokey malts, some sweet darker fruits and licorice.
T - Lots of sweet dark fruit and licorafe. Fair amount of chocolate sweetness and a bit of roastyness. Slightly boozy as well. The more I drink the more balanced between the four it gets.
M - not quite full bodied but not too far off, moderate carbonation, good mix of drinkable and sipper.

look: 4.25 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Note: 2013 Vintage
A: Pours a thick opaque jet black in color with moderate to heavy amounts of gentle visible carbonation along the edges of the glass/surface of the beer and some very dark cola brown highlights. The beer has a two finger tall dense foamy very dark tan head that slowly reduces to a medium sized patch of thick film surround by a thin film covering the remainder of the surface of the beer and a medium thick ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate to significant amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Strong aromas of dark roasted malts, bittersweet chocolate, and some lighter notes of anise/licorice. Some lighter notes of dark fruits (plum) and freshly ground coffee with hints of earthy hops.
T: Upfront there are moderate to strong flavors of deeply roasted dark malts and a strong flavor of bittersweet chocolate. That is followed by some light notes of dark fruit (plum), anise/licorice, and fresh coffee. There are light to moderate flavors of earthy and pine hops. Overall there is a light to moderate amount of lingering bitterness.
M: Very full bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Creamy with hints of dryness and alcohol warming in the finish.
O: I really enjoyed this beer - a really nice flavor and aroma with a wonderful body. Overall the alcohol is well hidden and the beer is easy to drink.

look: 3.75 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 3.5
750mL bottle from Bruisin Ales (Asheville, NC). 19.99. Brewed 9/25/11, bottled 2/2/12. Served in a Three Floyds teku.
Pours dark brown, slightly translucent ruby highlights around the edges with two fingers of tan head. Head recedes to some wisps on the surface and a thin halo that leaves spotty lacing.
Smells roasty with cocoa, plums and a little coffee.
Taste is a soft smooth blend of bitter sweet dark chocolate, dark stone fruits, mild burnt caramel, creamed coffee, slight pine, subtle funk and just a bit of booze.
Creamy, smooth medium full body with mild but present carbonation. Long bitter cocoa and burnt coffee finish.
The best thing I've had from Green Man but for the same price as a bottle of Hunahpu it falls short. A well brewed classic take on imperial stout with nothing to really make it stand out. Certainly good and worth a try but I can't see myself spending that much for another bottle in the future. That said, I made the whole 750 vanish by myself.

4.24/5 rDev +7.1%
look: 4.25 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
My bottle designates alcohol content as 7.5% not 9.5%.
Capped 750ml bottle pours into a La Fin Du Monde oversized snifter. Pitch black in color with a rather dark and frothy, cappuccino colored head of at least one finger in size. Plenty of lacing adorns the glass.
Full of coffee, chocolate, and roasted grains in the nose. Minimal fruitiness, but the overall aroma is rather subtle; nothing is overly noticeable, therefore the overall feel is lacking. Some alcohol sweetness.
Nice balance in the flavor. Starts with coffee and sweet malts, figs and raisins. Finishes strong with bakers chocolate and chocolate cake. Quite complex and delicious. Espresso Coffee roast finally comes to life long after consumption. This beer has a flavor that evolves second by second, each second different than the previous. Very nice!
Silky smooth mouthfeel with the alcohol well hidden (although it is fairly low for the style anyway). A real coffee and chocolate treat. Really enjoyed this one.

look: 5 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 4.75 | overall: 4
750mL bottle (2013, 7.5%) poured into a Duvel glass...
A: Pours black, perhaps black-brown when held to light; about two fingers of thick, light mocha head recedes to a buttery layer that leaves some serious sheets of crusty, sugary lace; all of the info on the bottle is nice, too.
S: Dark chocolate; roasted notes; semi-sweet chocolate; caramel notes, too.
T: Sweet malts; blackstrap molasses; light toffee and dark chocolate; pretty minimal hop bitterness makes for a pretty sweet stout... maybe a touch too sweet; more hop character or roasted malt flavor would help cut the sweetness of this brew.
M: Whoa... awesome! Thick and full-bodied... creamy, like a milkshake almost; carbonation is on the lower side. Only complaint is that it leaves the palate a little sweet / sticky - a touch of dryness would make the feel perfect.
O: A really nice stout - don't know if I'd call it "imperial" at 7.5%, but regardless of style, its pretty tasty. Stouts definitely don't look any better or have a better feel. Over-sweetness is what brings it down a notch for me.

2013 batch. Bottle states 7.5% ABV, must be much lighter nowadays (current listing and picture says 9.5%)
A: Pours a nice pitch black. Big, fluffy, effervescent head. Head takes forever to fade away. Nice spiderweb lacework. Great head retention.
S: Nice roasted malt notes. Dark chocolate covered coffee beans. Touch of char and a decent amount of anise.
T: Nice bitter coffee and dark chocolate up front. A little charry with hints of anise in the middle. Whatever sweetness there is runs out and you get more of a pure baker's chocolate in the finish. Lingering dark chocolate between sips.
M: Medium bodied, smooth. Silky almost.
O: A pretty simple stout with just roasted malt flavors (sorry, been drinking a lot of barrel aged/adjunct added stouts lately so I'm a little warped). Great smooth and well integrated flavors. Very tasty and goes down easy. Very nice.

4/5 rDev +1%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
The 2013 batch which is 7.5% ABV.
This pours out a completely pitch black color with a finger of dark, roasted head.
The aroma is full of roasty malt notes, bittersweet dark chocolate, some coffee, a hint of smoke and some caramel.
The taste is mainly dominated by the big, roasty malt notes that are followed by a bittersweet dark chocolate that is very rich. There is some coffee, but it's not overwhelming and a little bit of caramel, some vanilla and a hint of smoke.
The body is full and the mouthfeel is slightly creamy. The ABV is completely hidden.
This is a very easy to drink Imperial Stout that has a lot of nice traditional notes, but it's a little too straightforward not complex enough to be amazing. Definitely worth trying though!

Thanks to Frank (fbc24) for bringing this to the Nov. '12 Philly 'burbs bottle share.
Dark brown-black pour, oily and opaque with a nice dense cap of mocha head. Aroma of roasty malts, dark chocolate, and strangely, fairly heavy notes of yeast and some dark fruits. Taste was unexpectedly unusual...this was not a typical stout, but instead drank like some hybrid of a stout, a quad, and a barleywine. Dark malts, raisins, figs, dark chocolate, licorice, earthy hops...I'm not sure what kind of yeast they used for this, but I and several other members of the group definitely got some quad-y character from this beer. Not totally sure exactly what was going on with this beer, but whatever it was, it worked. Full-medium body, smooth, tasty.

Thanks to Wil for this one, shared at the 3rd annual chili showdown.
Poured into a pint, it frothed a bit with an ample layer of creamy tan foam. Lasting coverage and good retention, minimal spotty lacing. Bakers chocolate and light roast in the aroma, moreso in the full bodied flavor. Big chocolate, roast, and mild tobacco that gives it some nice complexity. Smooth and creamy feel, full in body. Despite the higher abv, it was quite easy to drink with a silky feel. Recommended!

Pours with medium mocha head. As expected, the color is dark. It has initial smell of a crisp flowery chocolate. This is a very drinkable stout. It is smooth and living up to the name as the flavor dwells in a very pleasant aftertaste of vanilla and malt. Honestly, this is one of the best stouts I've had in a long time. Kudos to Greenman Brewery. I will definitely be drinking more from them soon. I feel honored to have had the chance to drink this rare brew. Thanks goes to my friend Molly for the present.

Bought back in April at Bestway in Greensboro.
Pours beautifully leaving a finger of head that settles down to the edges of the glass.
Smells of a little chocolate and dark fruits. Roasty. Some coffee. It's hard to smell after a Black Tuesday and Hunahpu's.
Tastes of chocolates and dark fruits with a bit of a burnt after taste. Very drinkable though.
Mouthfeel is perfect. Smooth and creamy, the way a big stout should be.
I like this beer for sure, and the rating may have been higher if it wasn't up against such heavyweights tonight.

Beer pours out black with a mocha head and tight lacing. Very viscous and thick.
I get a lot of chocolate, some roasted malts and a bunch of prune/currant undertones. It smells great, but pick up more hops than I expected.
Taste is a great blend of chocolate, hazelnut, vanilla, cream, roasted malt, a little bit of char at the end keeps this from being a 5.
It has a thicker feel to me, but light enough to keep it from being overly rich, carbonation is ample for the style.
Overall, this was very enjoyable and a great first effort at bottling.

750ml bottle, bottled Feb 2, 2012.
Pours a deep chocolate brown with a huge fluffy beige head that shows great lacing and retention.
Aroma is fairly hoppy with some light earthy notes and plenty of chocolate malts and vanilla. Maybe some hints of roasted espresso beans.
Lots of bittersweet chocolate and vanilla with some light smoke and heavily roasted black malts. Dry, roasty finish.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with soft carbonation.
I'm impressed with this beer, especially since it's my first beer from Green Man. Heavy on the bittersweet chocolate and roast, but very drinkable.

Tap at Duckworths. Maybe not the darkest, but a dirty dark brown. Light tan head. Stuck to the glass pretty well.
Aroma, roast malt, some dark chocolate. I don't get a ton out of this, but I always seem to have this issue at Ducks so I'll give the benefit of the doubt.
Taste, nice chewey roast malt, chocolates. Some faint file red fruit. Finish has more roast, anise, and a minor piney note.
Solid medium body, low near creamy carbonation. Pretty coating. Little alcohol presence.
A nice take, everything you would expect is nicely present. Wouldn't spring for a 750 of this, but worth it on draft.
Serving type: on-tap

The Flyers Repainted Yoda on Ilya Bryzgalov's Star Wars Themed Mask at Lucasfilm's Request
Mar 4, 2013, 12:16 PM EDT
The buzz last week around Ilya Bryzgalov's new Star Wars themed goalie mask was so huge that it resulted in someone from Lucasfilm Ltd. reaching out to the Flyers to have the color scheme corrected.
As a refresher, the Flyers posted images of the new mask featuring the legendary characters of Yoda, Darth Vader, and R2D2 on Tuesday, February 26. Flyers fans loved the new space look which seemed fitting to Bryz and his penchant for all things universe related.
The artist who painted the mask, Franny Drummond (PaintZoo.com), told us the reason there were only a few Star Wars characters on the mask was "because Bryz wanted a lot of space."
When Bryz wants space, you give Bryz space.
But the Star Wars fans out there were a bit unhappy that Yoda was seemingly rocking a red light saber, traditionally a symbol of the Sith Lords. I wrote on Tuesday: "Which either means Ilya Bryzgalov has some crazy ideas up in his brain of turning good to evil, or it's just a simple oversight by Bryz or his painter. You never know with that guy."
Turns out, there was absolutely no intentions of turning Yoda or Bryz to the Dark Side.
"We didn't realize we'd be offending anyone," Drummond told me this morning. "Yoda's Lightsaber was actually an orange-ish color before we changed it. We were going for a hint of the Flyers' colors in Yoda as well. There were no bad intentions. It was just a matching thing."
Alas, the anger is strong in young Star Wars fans when you mess with a Jedi Master. And apparently those at Lucasfilm Ltd. as well.
Bryz wore the orange-tinted Yoda mask on Wednesday night against the Capitals (photo below) and played fantastic in a 4-1 Flyers victory. So when they tried to take his mask away from him, Bryz wasn't thrilled. He wanted to bring it home with him.
Someone from Lucasfilm Ltd. got in touch with the Head Equipment Manager of the Flyers and asked that the colors be changed to match the original look of Yoda in the Star Wars movies. Drummond told us that unless the changes were made, Bryzgalov might not be able to wear the mask going forward.
So Drummond found some matching paint and went to work following the Flyers win over the Capitals to give Yoda the proper green color Lightsaber and a more accurate spray tan.
The new look was ready for Saturday's matinee with the Ottawa Senators (photo below). The force was strong in Bryz yet again, holding the evil Senators to a lone goal en route to a 2-1 Flyers victory.
"The new color really pops. You can see it all the way up in the balconies," Drummond said.
"The Star Wars fans won."
And so did Bryz and the Flyers.
Here are three close ups of the artwork, courtesy of Franny Drummond (PaintZoo.com):

Though Bryz wanted a lot of space. so it is the great reason to select the star ware themed masks. its well protector. so they select finally without hesitation.

The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The sex scandal that felled CIA Director David Petraeus widened Tuesday to ensnare the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan, Gen. John Allen, in a suddenly public drama involving a Tampa socialite, a jealous rival, a twin sister in a messy custody dispute and flirty emails.

A look at what went wrong for the four U.S. generals who have led U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan since 2008:
Gen. David McKiernan, June 2008 to June 2009
Defense Secretary Robert Gates asked for McKiernan's resignation a year before his term as commander was set to end. The firing was seen as a rejection by newly elected President Barack Obama of McKiernan's conventional warfare approach in favor of the more targeted "counterinsurgency" strategy of working to undermine insurgents' pull on the population.
Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal, June 2009 to June 2010
McChrystal, who had a background in special operations, came in with a mandate to remake the war effort with the help of "surge" troops ordered by Obama. A year into that push, an article in Rolling Stone magazine quoted members of McChrystal's team making disparaging comments about their commander in chief and other senior administration officials. Obama called McChrystal back to Washington to explain and forced him to resign.
Gen. David Petraeus, July 2010 to July 2011
Petraeus took over the Afghan command to fill the void left by McChrystal's abrupt departure and agreed to serve for one year. He completed that term and then retired from the military to become CIA director in September 2011. Petraeus resigned as CIA director on Nov. 9 after he had an extramarital affair with his biographer. The affair came out as part of an FBI investigation into suspicious emails between the biographer and another woman.
Gen. John Allen, July 2011 to present
Allen was appointed by Obama to oversee the drawdown of U.S. and international forces ahead of the planned transfer of security responsibility to the Afghan government in 2014. Pentagon officials said early Tuesday that Allen is under investigation for thousands of alleged "inappropriate communications" with the second woman involved in the Petraeus case, a Florida socialite. Allen's nomination to become the next commander of U.S. European Command and the commander of NATO forces in Europe has now been put on hold.
The improbable story — by turns tragic and silly — could have major consequences, unfolding at a critical time in the Afghan war effort and just as President Barack Obama was hoping for a smooth transition in his national security team.
Obama put a hold on the nomination of Afghan war chief Allen to become the next commander of U.S. European Command as well as the NATO supreme allied commander in Europe after investigators uncovered 20,000-plus pages of documents and emails that involved Allen and Tampa socialite Jill Kelley. Some of the material was characterized as "flirtatious."
Allen, 58, insisted he'd done nothing wrong and worked to save his imperiled career.
Kelley, 37, who had worked herself into the center of the military social scene in Florida without having any official role, emerged as a central figure in the still-unfolding story that has embroiled two of the nation's most influential and respected military leaders.
Known as a close friend of retired Gen. Petraeus, Kelley triggered the FBI investigation that led to his downfall as CIA director when she complained about getting anonymous, harassing emails. They turned out to have been written by Petraeus' mistress, Paula Broadwell, who apparently was jealous of the attention the general paid to Kelley. Petraeus acknowledged the affair and resigned Friday.
In the course of looking into that situation, federal investigators came across what a Pentagon official called "inappropriate communications" between Allen and Kelley, both of them married.
According to one senior U.S. official, the emails between Allen and Kelley were not sexually explicit or seductive but included pet names such as "sweetheart" or "dear." The official said that while much of the communication — including some from Allen to Kelley — is relatively innocuous, some could be construed as unprofessional and would cause a reasonable person to take notice.
That official, as well as others who described the investigation, requested anonymity on grounds that they were not authorized to discuss the situation publicly.
The FBI decided to turn over the Allen information to the military once the bureau recognized it contained no evidence of a federal crime, according to a federal law enforcement official, who was not authorized to discuss the matter on the record and demanded anonymity. Adultery, however, is a crime under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
A senior defense official said that the FBI first notified the Pentagon of the Allen matter at 4:15 p.m. EST on Sunday. The Pentagon's top lawyer, Jeh Johnson, then called Defense Secretary Leon Panetta's chief of staff, Jeremy Bash, about 5 p.m. as Bash and Panetta were flying to Honolulu aboard a military jet to begin a weeklong Asia trip. Bash then informed Panetta.
Allen was not suspended from his military position, even though his nomination for promotion is on hold. The White House will soon be deciding how many troops will remain in Afghanistan — and for what purposes — after the U.S.-led combat operation ends in 2014. Allen has provided his recommendations to the White House and is key to those discussions.

What are your memories of Ken's House of Pancakes in Menlo Park?

What are your memories of the local pancake house?

I remember Ken's.
It was a great place to get great pancakes with all the trimmings, served on platters, a simple plate wouldn't work. You would always see the same waitresses year after year there which I always thought spoke well of the company. Always the same consistent food and service. Maybe it wasn't the latest or the hot-spot in the area but Ken's you knew that you would get lots of good food for a fair price.

Fond memories of Ken's. Miss the great pies and burgers. No restaurant in the space since Ken's has flourished as well. It was unique and something we need more of.

Ken's was the first restaurant my family and I ate at when we moved to Menlo Park in 1980. Our kitchen wasn't unpacked and we didn't have a lot of options. But to a hungry seven-year-old kid, a plate of pancakes was just about the best option around.
Later, Ken's became a regular favorite for us whenever the grandparents were in town.

I was about 11 years old and my older brother was a year older. We had just ordered lunch and my parents went to another table to briefly visit some friends. Before they returned to the table, the waitress delivered our lunches. My older brother was trying to kick me from under the table. He was sitting opposite of me. Just as my parents were returning to the table, my brother went to kick me again, but instead he kicked the pole or leg that supported our table. All the dishes quickly tumbled to the floor along with the table. I think our parents were a little more embarrassed than we were. I remember my mother with a look of horror on her face when she saw and heard what happened.

I remember when Ken was in both Menlo and Mountain View, and when I asked about the "Kens of Hawaii" menu (framed on the wall), I was told that a former employee of Ken's had opened a pancake house in Hilo with permission to use his name. I decided to make a trip to the Big Island and drove across a really very big island through several micro-climates to actually find "Ken's". My large stack with coconut syrup was excellent and worth the trip!

I worked at Ken's Milbrae and Menlo Park for 12+ years. Wonderful place to work. Good food. Good people. Ken will be missed. I think of the people I met there often.
on Jan 11, 2008 at 8:49 pm
I used to go to Ken's in Mountain View. There was a bartender there that called everyone a rabbit. After many years there was even a painting of him as a rabbit. I first met him in 1964. I cannot remember is real name, but I can sure remember the face. Is there anyone out there that remembers him as well? Also, is Ken's in Mountain View still in operation?

The Ken's House of Pancakes in Mountain View is long closed. In fact, we called the Ken's in Hawaii (I edit the Mountain View Voice) and found that it's the last remaining of the chain. Read more about it here:
Web Link
I hadn't heard what Jim M posted above -- "a former employee of Ken's had opened a pancake house in Hilo with permission to use his name" -- but if that's true the Hawaii restaurant wasn't exactly part of Ken Pruitt's chain anyway.
on Mar 5, 2008 at 4:53 pm
Patrick....did you ever identify the 'rabbit?' I'm looking for a former employee of either the Campbell of Menlo Ken's by the name of Ed Dees. Does that ring a bell?
on Oct 26, 2011 at 8:19 pm
When I first moved to Silicon Valley I was put up at the motel next door and ate at Ken's then and many times between 1985 and 1987. Sometimes we would get partially full at Ken's and then go to Toshi's Sushiya on University Ave in Palo Alto -- Toshi had a couple of places after that, last being Kaygetsu which I think is just closing. Things change, huh?
(But I first ate at the Ken's in Hilo which was I think 24 Hour and a big place for the locals -- this was 1984 or so when I visited during a volcanic eruption -- very excellent memories of nice island and people.)

Loved Ken's when I was in high school. As an adult, I noticed that they never could make a cappuccino. That's my bad for ordering a cap in a diner.
on Oct 26, 2011 at 10:59 pm
We went to Ken's for years. The Apple pancake was our and our kids favorite. We would also many times order it to go.
However, we had a very bad incident with a snotty waitress one Sunday, and even after writing our complaint, never heard back. We never went back after that. It wasn't too long later that it closed.
After a number of un-successful restaurants in that spot, a real winner has been found in Jeffry's, which if not the most successful eatery in MP is certainly very near the top, even after being open for only a short time period.
on Oct 27, 2011 at 11:14 am
Our family went to Ken's after church in Woodside in the 60's didn't go much after. My memories are of huge pancake dishes.
on Oct 27, 2011 at 11:58 am
Old Timer - that must've been the same waitress who was nasty to me re my cappuccino. The last time I ordered one, when I said I'd been given a latte by mistake, she breathed fire into my face and tried to convince me that I was wrong. They closed not long after that.
I'm glad that the Jeffrey's is there - it's The O for kids & families ;-) My spouse digs the milkshakes. But the chain curtain in back is a little SM/dungeony, imo - makes MP a tad racy ;-)
on Oct 27, 2011 at 12:13 pm
I remember going to Ken's in the early '70s to carbo-load on pancakes for Bay-to-Breakers. Not sure it helped my race time, but it sure tasted good.
on Oct 27, 2011 at 12:52 pm
Remember those golden coffee jugs they'd leave at each table? Once, close to when they closed, we got a really old one with a Giants logo and the GG bridge in the background. I bought it for $20, mostly to have a Ken's relic. Shoulda eBayed it when they won the Series.
on Oct 27, 2011 at 2:27 pm
I remember that as a high schooler in the mid-late 70's we would 'kidnap' our friends on their birthdays by waking them up and dragging them in pajamas to Ken's for breakfast (either before school or early on a weekend). As it was not trendy in those days to go out in your pj's, this would cause quite a scene and was lots of fun! Ken's was a great neighborhood pancake house!
on Oct 27, 2011 at 2:52 pm
Boysenberry syrup! When I was a kid in the 1970s I remember the boysenberry syrup for pancakes. It was a great treat to have something other than maple syrup.
By the late 1970s I remember cutting second period at M-A and going to Ken's with my friends for breakfast.
By the late 1980s Ken's wasn't so good any more. Either the quality had gone way downhill, or I raised the bar and wanted something better, healthier maybe.
I also remember going to Ken's in Mountain View and Millbrae. At some point Ken sold the Millbrae eatery and the new owner changed the name to "Ben's House of Pancakes." It made for a cheap change to the old Ken's sign.
For that old-school pancake house experience, the Millbrae House of Pancakes is still there and is exactly as it was 25 years ago.
on Oct 27, 2011 at 2:54 pm
Loved Ken's. It was a wonderful family restaurant and a great place that parents did not mind their middle school and high school kids to go without supervison. Loved the spaghetti and garlic bread and my parents loved the pork chops. Ken's was a great place and is still missed.
on Oct 27, 2011 at 4:11 pm
Ken's! I still miss it. As students at M-A in the '60s, my friends and I used to meet at Ken's before school for a huge pancake breakfast and that bottomless carafe of coffee. The old-time waitresses were kindly tolerant of our caffeinated exuberance. Thanks for the memories, Ken!
on Oct 27, 2011 at 7:33 pm
From early time, my family would go to Ken's after church. Actually I remember leaving church early so we could get a seat . I loved the apple pancakes. The waitresses were great and always friendly. Such a family tradition for me and always will be remembered. Also a great social event as we always met someone that we knew. Good times not forgotten.
on Oct 27, 2011 at 10:16 pm
It was a great place to have breakfast with your friends or family. Definitely one of those truly "local" places. Too bad it's gone; we're left with good memories though.

ken's out lasted us all - a go to place - my mom never returned her food - it was
perfect - a diner where delicious comfort food was dependable as were the folks that
served it and frequented it - the new owner of jeffrey's is a friend who asked for a 50's
picture i had of myself and an old boy friend - both of us ex MA students sharing
a milkshake- i am proud to say our photo is on the wall at jeffrey's --- but for me it
will always be on the wall at KEN'S with buicks- fords and chevys parked outside---
cheers ---

Great place. The German pancake with powdered sugar and lemon was to die for! Thanks to Ken
on Oct 29, 2011 at 12:01 pm
I entered Ken's as a small child holding my Dad's hand in 1960 and remember the door had a decal on it saying Diners Club. That was the first time I ever saw any reference to a "credit card" and even my Dad had no idea what Diners Club decal meant. I remember the tall "world" atop the building spinning around perhaps??? Was there a top hat too? The building was very distinctive and once inside I remember the biggest pancake I had ever seen go by. Very busy place. Smells of butter and sweets. We went there often as a family after that. Many years. Growing up here since 1955 Ken's House of Pancakes, Johnny's Smoke Shop, Foster's Freeze, Joe Prein's Record Shop, and the original Round Table Pizza Parlor. God bless you Mr. Ken!
on Oct 31, 2011 at 11:15 am
We missed Ken's when it closed because it was a favorite Sunday morning treat for the family. We could always count on the good service and great food.
on Dec 31, 2011 at 10:25 pm
Remember with fond memories eating at Ken's at all of the locations like Mountain View on the El Camino! The dinner salads and German baby pancake were awesome! I still taste those salads, burgers and fries. I also remember eating and running at Ken's! lol!
on Feb 24, 2012 at 1:33 pm
The "Rabbit" who bartended at the Ken's in Mountain View, his real name was Tommy.
Ken Pruitt at one time owned Ken's in Menlo Park, Mountain View, Hawaii, Milbrae, and a place with a pipe organ(?). He also briefly had Mr. K's Cabaret in Burlingame.
Ken's was famous for the German and Apple pancakes. The one in Hawaii now does not serve those.
Ken's was a great place to hang out with friends back in the day. They didn't make it because coffee shops became passe and the rents sky-rocketed in the late 90's early 2000's.
on Apr 21, 2012 at 8:40 pm
Great place for basic coffee shop foods here in California and Hawaii. The one in Hilo Hawaii did not please me when I was all of ten years old and they served still frozen strawberries on my now soggy waffle. The picture in the menu showed fresh strawberries and having just moved from California to Hilo I thought they had fresh strawberries. WRONG! Lesson learned. But if you are in the way to or from the Hilo airport it couldn't hurt to check Ken's out. The yelp reviews look good, but I wouldn't bet on getting fresh strawberries there anytime soon. LOL.
on Jul 8, 2012 at 8:07 am
Loved Ken's. Ate at Ken's, MP, all the time. After they closed I started eating at Ken's, Mountain View until the day I was served the specialty of the house, Blueberry Pancakes with hidden cigarette butt. Never went back.
Then they finally closed. Surprise, surprise!
on Sep 2, 2013 at 9:30 pm
I used to go to Ken's in Mountain view with my folks Melody and Rod Romayne. Ken always called the bar Melody's for my Mother.we spent many good times there with Tommy the bar tender and another bartender named Don Manners. My husband and I also went there. it was a great hang out, just down the road from "the Echo" in Los Altos.The place was always friendly and Ken always had great free goodies at the bar. .
on Nov 3, 2013 at 3:04 pm
I was kicked out of Ken's House Of Pancakes in 1968 for having long hair. I was with a social worker, a friend who was going to Hasting's Law School and a friend interning at Mt. Zion Hospital in San Francisco. The police were called and they enforced "the right to serve" sign on the door. We were kicked out, those are the times. The Redwood Room in the Clift Hotel in San Francisco had the same standards.And those were the times.
on Nov 4, 2013 at 10:39 am
Remember Ken's, and miss it too. Wish we had a place like it around town again. It would be great! Love (and miss) the old Diners.

All this talk about pancakes makes me want to have some, and Ken's is closed. I guess I'll go home and have potato pancakes for dinner.
on Nov 5, 2013 at 12:32 pm
We used to go to Ken's Menlo Park every Sunday after attending Holy Trinity Church. Started going there in the early 60's and continued till it closed. Great place for breakfast and as kids we loved all the flavored syrups and the dutch baby apple pancakes. Wish there were still places like Ken's.
on Nov 5, 2013 at 10:37 pm
Thank you Ken Pruitt for being part of the MP community for years. I played on Ken's House of Pancakes little league baseball team growing up. Great memories. A long-missed member of the MP community and much different than a Stack's type breakfast place. I miss the good old regular pancake house style restaurant Menlo Park needs so badly to return to town. I-Hop is the closest thing but a big chain! Not the same.
on Nov 6, 2013 at 8:05 am
I sometimes breakfast on pancakes at Ann's Coffee Shop down Santa Cruz Av, opens at 6:30. Palo Alto doesn't wake up until 7.
on Nov 6, 2013 at 11:06 am
Like the earlier post from Tricia Young I too remember all the old haunts of Menlo Park....and I can add Don's Hobby Shop. Our family used to go to Ken's House of Pancakes after going to Nativity Church on Sunday. We had moved to the area in 1959, about the same time Ken's and Round Table first opened their doors. It was always such a treat to go to Ken's...great pancakes/waffles and friendly service. Was so sad to see it go but Jeffrey's is doing a good job keeping the ambiance of the 50's and 60's. Will have to try the Hawaii Ken's when we are in Hilo.

I have many warm and pleasant memories of Ken's. My father started taking us there when we moved to Woodside in 1962. He loved going out for breakfast and Ken's was one of his favorites. When I had my daughter the first place my dad took us was to Ken's for breakfast when she was a month old. When my parents were older they would go there for dinner sometimes. It was a nice friendly place for them. I was sorry to see it closed.
on Apr 2, 2014 at 10:33 pm
I recall many breakfast whence I debated between Kens's delightful German pancakes (which took extra time to prepare) or a greasy item lower down on the menu called the Weasel. Yes, the Weasel was an open face omelet slathered in chili con carne and raw heartburn. Once ingested, the Weasel would scurry around your intestines for the rest of the day and take on a wretched life of its own. Curse that vile weasel. I always wished that I had the patience to wait for the German pancakes instead of hastily ordering a weasel.

With no more than 30,000 elephants left in the forests of Asia, the Asian elephant is rapidly declining throughout its range. In fact, it is thought that this current figure is less than one tenth of the population of the Asian elephant's African cousin.
Habitat loss and degradation are leading to populations of Asian elephants becoming fragmented in their environment. As their habitat shrinks, elephants and humans come into conflict as elephants raid crop fields and destroy homes and property. This human-elephant conflict is thought to be the leading cause of elephants being killed in the wild.
But human-elephant conflict isn't the only cause of declining Asian elephant populations. The threat of poaching and hunting of elephants for their tusks, which are highly sort after on the illegal black market, is another leading cause. Tackling these issues to help save the Asian elephant requires a holistic approach. The challenge facing most conservation programs in south-east Asia is to balance the needs of the wildlife and their habitat, as well as the socio-economic needs of the local communities.
Australia Zoo Wildlife Warriors supports two on-the-ground elephant conservation programs. One is based in central and north Sumatra, while the other is located in the critical habitat regions of Cambodia. The forests within these regions represent some of the largest continuous blocks of habitat and last remaining stronghold for the Asian elephant in the wild. These programs use holistic strategies which not only help to save the Asian elephant in the wild, but have helped to develop alternative livelihoods for the communities where both elephants and humans live.

Pure Connect Is The Sound System That Can Do It All
By Tony Ibrahim | Friday | 03/08/2012
Pure has been solidifying its name in the audio space by including a gamut of wireless technologies in its products.
"Some day, we'll wonder why we ever had to physically connect devices." That was said by Pure's Managing Director, Graeme Redmond, and it's with the same tenacity the folks at Pure have approached their latest offering, infusing it with a vast variety of wireless technologies.
The Sensia 200D Connect and has a lengthy feature set, so we suggest you take a deep breath first.

Google and Apple devices can stream music and radio wirelessly to the 200D, while social network aficionados can view Twitter feeds, Facebook updates, RSS feeds, weather reports and Picasa pics on the vibrant 7 inch touchscreen. For a small orb like system, that's quite the feature set.
"Pure Stream delivers similar convenience when playing from a Smartphone to compatible Pure wireless music and radio systems" continued Pure MD Redmond. "Pure Stream is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Pure's vision for the digital home."
Music is replayed over 30W speakers, is enhanced by a suite of custom Pure software and between the two, will deliver 'completely immersive, room-filling sound.'
Other features include an input for an iPod/MP3 player; two fully featured alarms; countdown timer; sleep timer and a headphone socket.

Advisors help you find the resources and tools that enable you to explore, define, and accomplish your academic and career goals. Academic advisors support you in making choices about course enrollment and understanding and interpreting degree requirements and policies. Career advisors help you explore business careers, assist you with finding internship and full-time job opportunities and evaluate job offers.
We will begin partnering with you as a pre-business student when you attend SOAR or contact Undergraduate Academic Services for advising. All pre-business students will be assigned two pre-business advisors who will support you as you're working to gain admission to the Wisconsin School of Business. Admitted business students and CIB students will be assigned a team of academic and career advisors based on their declared major(s) for specialized information and assistance.

Madison, WI 53706
Phone: 608-262-0471
Fax: 608-265-6041
Hours: Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m.–4:30 p.m.
Academic advisors will send email correspondence to currently enrolled University of Wisconsin-Madison undergraduate students via their Wiscmail email account only. This is your net ID followed by "@wisc.edu." Students may continue to use other email accounts (Google, Hotmail, etc.) for personal email, but all university-related business must be conducted using their Wiscmail address. Students must make sure their preferred email address (in MyUW) is set to the Wiscmail email address. Questions regarding Wiscmail or MyUW should be directed to the DoIT Help Desk (608-264-HELP). We also strongly encourage all students to continually monitor the myBiz Blog for important information.
Students are encouraged to email their advisor with quick questions, i.e. questions with a "yes or no" answer. Please include your full name and student ID number in the body of the email. Advisors may ask students to come to drop-in advising or schedule an appointment for more detailed questions asked via email.
These sessions are offered to pre-business students in both the fall and spring semesters (content varies by semester).

Offered at the beginning of the semester and during fall and spring enrollment (peak) as well as over the lunch hour during non-peak times (11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.), this is a first-come, first-served type of appointment and advisors expect to address quick questions. Come to drop-in advising to discuss current or next semester course enrollment, graduation checks, to get a form signed, and more! Drop-in advising means you'll meet with the first available advisor and the session is designed to answer any of your immediate questions in 10-15 minutes or less. Students who come in for drop-in but are in need of a 30-minute appointment based on specific questions and concerns will be directed to make a scheduled advising appointment.
Students may schedule a 30-minute appointment with their assigned academic advisor to discuss more in-depth questions relating to planning courses for remaining semesters, discussing major options, reviewing course enrollment, planning for study abroad, difficulties with courses, non-academic factors affecting their academics, and much more! Students may schedule appointments online via BuckyNet.
How to Prepare for Your Advising Appointment
The advisors in the BBA Advising Center want to make the most of the time they spend with you during your advising appointment. Here are some tips to help with this:

NoSQL databases are all the rage these days. We recently discussed moving from MySQL to MongoDB within hours. The rise of NoSQL is often associated with the need to not just store large amounts of data but also to visualize relationships between the various objects in the database. InfiniteGraph has released its InfiniteGraph API to Java developers to use its NoSQL graph database. The company also launched a developer contest.
InfiniteGraph is clearly focused on addressing the issue of determining relationships between objects in the database and treats those relationships as first class citizens. Fundamentally, it is a connected graph database. The product is multi-platform and uses Java. And best of all, you can start now for free and plan out more complex deployment and resource usages later. The Developer Wiki is a good starting point to get familiar with the product. The API is currently in Java and should be a good fit for most Java enterprise applications, too.
To celebrate the release of InfiniteGraph, there is also a developer contest with a fabulous first prize of $12,000 of "Apple stuff." All you need to do is build an application (could be a mobile or web service also) using InfiniteGraph to traverse the objects and relationships in your data. You can register for the contest to download the InfiniteGraph SDK and get started with the application. Two other winners will receive $1,500 worth of Apple store credit.
The contest submission deadline is September 30. Winners will be announced in a couple of weeks after that. For eligibility and other details about the contest, please refer to the contest rules.
If you have been waiting to venture into NoSQL land, this is a great opportunity. So connect the dots to win the InfiniteGraph developer contest. For readers who wish to understand what a graph database is, InfiniteGraph provides a good introduction.

Maurice Heugen, Solo flutist at the Zürich Opera Orchestra recorded La Plainte, au loin, du faune... for flute and piano. The CD "Hommage à Debussy" is available at http://www.bloomline.net/heugenboer.
A friend of Debussy at the Conservatoire and a pupil of Bizet's friend Guiraud, Paul Dukas came near to winning the Prix de Rome, but when he left the Conservatoire found an early musical career as a critic and as an orchestrator. His strong critical sense led him to destroy a number of his compositions and only to allow a relatively small number of works to be published. He remained influential and respected as a teacher.

Firefighters to strike over Christmas holidays (From This Is Lancashire)
Firefighters to strike over Christmas holidays
in News By Saiqa Chaudhari, Education reporter
FIREFIGHTERS in Bolton are to strike on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve - and launch a ban on overtime in an escalation of their long-running dispute with the government over pensions.
They will join their colleagues in the Fire Brigades Union (FBU) across England and Wales to walk out for five hours from 7pm on December 24, for six hours from 6.30pm on December 31 and for two hours from 6.30am on January 3.
And between 7pm on December 27 and 7pm on the December 29, all firefighters in the union across England, Wales and Scotland will refuse to work voluntary overtime.
It will be the first time firefighters in all three nations have taken industrial action in this dispute over retirement age and pensions.
Firefighters in Bolton stopped work on Friday and Saturday evenings, so after the new walkouts, the union will have staged nine separate strikes since September.
FBU general secretary Matt Wrack said: "Firefighters provide a first-class standard of service 24-hours a day, 365 days a year, and these strikes will remind government just how reliant they are on our members' professionalism, commitment and flexibility.
"However, there should be no need for industrial action, and it's absurd that firefighters' concerns over pensions have not been addressed already.
"The government must stop claiming they are negotiating when they have refused to talk for two months and insist on forcing through proposals that are unaffordable, unworkable and unfair.
"By simply conceding common sense and allowing firefighters a fair deal, the government could end this industrial action today."

The fire occurred Tuesday morning in a house at 130 Stone St., according to Oxford police Chief Bill Partridge.
Partridge said he was first to arrive at the burning house, where a neighbor told him a man was still inside. Partridge said he went inside and found Franklin Odom, 80, lying on the floor in a hallway.
"The fire got too hot and the smoke was too heavy, so I had to come back out," Partridge said.
The police chief said he wasn't wearing any protective equipment, but shortly after Oxford fire Chief Gary Sparks arrived and rescued Odom.
Sparks said Odom was airlifted to UAB Hospital.
Sparks and Partridge were unsure of Odom's condition Wednesday. A spokeswoman at UAB said she could not locate any patient by that name.
Sparks, Partridge and two Oxford medics were taken to Regional Medical Center and treated for smoke inhalation.
"My chest hurts and my throat hurts," Partridge said this morning.
Partridge was at work Wednesday and Sparks said he would return Thursday.
Sparks said the fire was under investigation Wednesday by the Alabama Fire Marshal's Office.
Oxford fire Capt. Ben Stewart said the one-story home was severely damaged, but firefighters were able to control the flames within five minutes of their arrival.
"The house is going to be a loss on the inside," Stewart said.
Stewart said the cause of the fire was unknown this morning.

Hi there,
I came across a site that claims to have an applet you can use to see flash content on the iphone. They charge $15 for it, apparently they have a server that re-encodes it so safari can play it.
They even have a video in youtube: Duaa3saYtQw
Has anyone tried this?

Hello Everyone, as you can tell I am new here.
I have a Compaq A940NR laptop that I would like to install OS X on. I have quite a bit of experience installing it, but I was wondering if anyone knows one that works well with this laptop. I have tried iDeneb on this laptop already, but the trackpad was about useless. Not sure about that issue so I gave up for a little while and figured I would ask here.
Intel Pentium D 1.86GHz
Intel 965 Chipset
Intel X3100 Video (This worked in iDeneb)
Conexant HD Audio (This worked in iDeneb)
Atheros AR5007
Realtek 8139C (this worked in iDeneb)
Alps TrackPad (This did NOT work in iDeneb.)
All of the USB ports work, etc. I didn't get to check much more since I needed to get this system back up and running an OS.
Any pointers?
