One of the great marvels of the time is how effectively well-funded propaganda campaigns and a captive mainstream media have distorted the peoples' view of reality so that they act as if they are sleep-walking.
This places small private businesses and individuals at a distinct disadvantage with regard to economic viability in the marketplace. It fosters consolidation and monopoly. It lends itself to a cynicism that is undermining the conscience of many of those who have sworn oaths of office. It isolates dissent to corrals and 'free speech zones.' It breaks up peaceful gatherings of protest with pepper spray, bullets, and clubs. It pollutes the internet with campaigns of disinformation, and silences the voices of journalists.

text: The Buena Vista Cafe's Irish Coffee Recipe Make Irish Coffee the Buena Vista Cafe Way by Katie Sweeney 2/16/14 24 Reactions 144 Shares Print 59 73 9 3 0 After Guinness, the Irish coffee is quite possibly Ireland's most famous drink. This hot cocktail is a mixture of coffee, whiskey, sugar, and cream. It's famous thanks to the Buena Vista Cafe, a San Francisco establishment that perfected the recipe in 1952 and has since served countless glasses to thirsty bar-goers. I headed to the cafe to learn its signature technique for making this iconic drink. Here, bartender Paul Nolan, who's been behind the bar for 35 years and estimates he's poured between 3 and 4 million Irish coffees, teaches us how it's done. Line the Glasses in a Row What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The Buena Vista makes Irish coffees in batches; 28 glasses fit along its bar. When at home, select heat-proof, 6-ounce glasses, or purchase a pair of the classic Irish coffee glasses from the cafe. 1 / 10 Fill With Hot Water What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Once the glasses are lined up, fill each one with steaming hot water. This warms the glass. 2 / 10 Add Two Sugar Cubes What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Dump the hot water out, and add two sugar cubes. 3 / 10 Add Coffee What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Now it's time to add the coffee. At Buena Vista, they use Peerless coffee from Oakland, CA, but any strong hot coffee will do. According to Nolan, each glass "should be filled 3/4 full with coffee." 4 / 10 Level Coffee What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 When pouring the coffee, it can be hard to make the glassfuls even. If necessary, level out the coffee, so each glass has the same amount. 6 / 10 Stir to Dissolve What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Use a small spoon to dissolve the sugar cubes in the coffee. 6 / 10 Add Whiskey What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Next pour in the whiskey. Tullamore Dew is the official whiskey of the cafe (the cafe serves the world's largest amount of Irish whiskey). Nolan uses 1 1/4-1 1/2 ounces of whiskey per coffee. 7 / 10 Whip the Cream What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Although customers always think it's sweetened, nothing is added to Buena Vista's cream. It's simply lightly whipped heavy cream. It should be thick and frothy, but not stiff. Nolan's tried every home mixer and recommends a handheld mixer for the best whipped cream. 8 / 10 Add the Whipped Cream What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Slowly pour the thickened cream over a spoon to create the collar on the Irish coffee. It should float on top of the whiskey-coffee mixture. 9 / 10 Enjoy! What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Irish coffees are truly a delicious treat. Sipping the warm, slightly sweetened whiskey-coffee through the cool cream is like drinking heaven. It's so good that on a busy day, The Buena Vista serves over 2,000 of them!

UND's Hakstol Signs 6-year Contract ExtensionGRAND FORKS (WDAZ-TV) - UND men's hockey coach Dave Hakstol says he has the best job in hockey. And on Thursday, UND made sure Hakstol will stay in his job by signing him to a six-year contract extension.
By: Pat Sweeney, WDAZ
GRAND FORKS (WDAZ-TV) - UND men's hockey coach Dave Hakstol says he has the best job in hockey. And on Thursday, UND made sure Hakstol will stay in his job by signing him to a six-year contract extension.
Hakstol is in the last year of a five-year deal. In his first eight seasons as Sioux head coach, he has become the third-winningest coach in school history, with 213 victories and a winning percentage of 653.
He has led his teams to eight NCAA tournaments, five Frozen Fours, four WCHA playoff titles and two WCHA regular season titles.
Hakstol says he's grateful that UND has confidence in him.
"I know the reality of sports and the business of sports certainly. You have to go out and do a good job day in and day out and those are the things I'm going to concentrate on most, so really excited to have the opportunity, really pleased and thankful to have the chance to have that type of security for our staff," Hakstol said. "But most importantly I'm excited to go back to work and get focused on next year."
According to Athletic Director Brian Faison, Hakstol will get a base salary of $300,000 with bonuses. Hakstol could make an additional $135,000 a year. His previous contract called for a base salary of $210,000 a year.
Faison says it was critical for UND to continue the momentum Hakstol has established.
"My experience with Dave in my four years is he's been excellent to work with. Certainly from the standpoint of competitiveness, the record speaks for itself. When you look at the success his student-athletes have got in the classroom, it says I think legions about his commitment to academic performance as far as athletes," Faison said.
"And another component is community service. The hockey team every year is one of our leading teams in terms of reaching back to the community and helping out. Those are important to me, they're important to the university and we're glad we have Dave behind the bench."
Since Hakstol became Sioux head coach, only Michigan and Boston College have won more games than UND.

Dr. Bogner's career in education began as a teacher of the sixth grade, followed by her position as a school counselor in the high school and middle school of the Lake Shore Central School District in Western New York. Due to her extensive experiences in schools she has been dedicated to creating courses that provide breadth and depth of topics related to developing the skills essential for graduate students entering the schools as competent school counselors in grades pre-k through twelve. All graduate students have field placements in a variety of school districts during three of the four semesters of full-time study. In October, 2011 she received the "Career Achievement Award" from the New York State School Counselor Association in recognition of her outstanding record of service to the profession and her substantial and ongoing contributions to her students, place of employment, colleagues and community.
Over the past decade Dr. Bogner has conducted approximately 40 workshops, staff development seminars, as well as local, state and national conference presentations. In addition she has served in many professional leadership positions, such as: member for nine years on the Niagara University's Program and Assessment Committee (four years as the chairperson), which analyzes and approves new and revised curriculum for the College of Education; member of the editorial board for the New York State School Counselor Journal for four years, which is published by the New York State School Counselor Association (NYSSCA); Vice President for Professional Development for the New York Counselors Association (NYCA) (two years); vice president for Alpha Lambda chapter of Delta Kappa Gamma International Society for Women in Education (three years); and Secretary and founding board member of NAPPP (three years).

By her expertise in training both peer program professionals and youth, by her creation and sharing of materials for operation of peer programs and for her exemplary service to the NAPPP Board of Directors".
Dr. Bogner's professional presentation and research topics include: Creating and Implementing Career Development Programs; College and Career Readiness Preparation; Common Core State Standards; Promoting STEM Careers; Developing and Implementing Peer Helper Programs Which Enhance School Counseling Programs; Strategies for Promoting Asset Development in Youth; and Developing and Implementing Comprehensive School Counseling Programs.
Since the inception of the Common Core Learning Standards (2011), which have been adopted by almost all of the states in the US; she has been focusing her research on devising strategies for infusing career development activities within the schools (k-12). During the 2011 summer she developed a model program for middle school students using interactive and experiential teaching strategies which connected career and college readiness standards with career development standards. During her 2012-2013 sabbatical she will be conducting research in this critical area of concern, as well as collaborating with ACT in a validation study of a new assessment, ENGAGE Teacher Edition.

A good work environment entails acceptable work behavior and upholding professionalism. When reaching out for a professional organizer based in Portland Oregon or in any other state, a lot need to be put into consideration. As a client you ought to understand the nature of work to be done. This will provide with two options to choose from. The first is whether to seek permanent services and the second is whether to go for contract based services. This may also be influenced by financial factors such as payments. You will ask yourself whether you'll meet service fee with no or little struggle. Upon evaluating your financial position and you have ascertained that you may not meet permanent hiring requirement, it is worth settling for a contract such as weekly or fortnight.
Have a clear and well defined work to be done and if there are further special request and instruction, let the contractor know. A well defined work procedure gives the contractor humble time to plan and allocate adequate time for each piece of work. It will also lead to timely completion if it is a day or week based contract. Planning is vital as you can predict when the work will be completed and for client, it provides adequate opportunity to organize a timely payment to avoid inconveniences.

Software concerns and solutions:
The kingpin of tablets is, of course, the iPad. Most people use their tablets alongside their existing technology - so they complement each other and help make life simpler at home and on the go. If you have a Windows PC or a Mac at home, you might be concerned about if you can run programs you have on your home computer - like Word, Excel and PowerPoint - on your new tablet. Unfortunately, these and many other full-featured applications are not yet available on tablets.
Remote access and functionality:
Great news for iPad users is that today with Parallels Access for iPad (www.parallels.com/access) you can remotely access everything on your Mac or PC - including all of your full-featured applications such as Excel - and use native iPad gestures including tap, swipe, pinch and zoom, just like they were made for your iPad. You can even use Internet Explorer on your computer to watch Flash videos with sound via your iPad. No more waiting for the applications you already invested in to be available on the iPad - real mobile productivity is finally here. Now you can start leaving your computer at home or work and use your iPad to get more done on the go.
Did your daughter leave her homework on your home PC? Simply access your home computer from work with your iPad and email it to her teacher before today's deadline. Did your boss request a few last-minute changes to your PowerPoint presentation but you are out of the office and unable to get back before his deadline? Relax. Use your iPad to tap into your work computer to quickly make and send the changes before his important meeting. From executives to soccer moms, Parallels Access enhances your iPad's functionality so you can do what you need to easily and efficiently. Download a free trial of Parallels Access onto your iPad at the iTunes App Store.
Battery life:
Another main concern for tablet users is battery life. You may be surprised just how often you use your iPad for work and play, which means you'll be using up your battery quickly. It's important to learn how to conserve battery life so you're not tethered to an outlet constantly. Make it a habit to check the system's task manager and close unused apps - simply double click the iPad home button and you'll see the task bar displaying all open applications. Remember, even if you aren't interacting with apps, if they remain open after you close them, they still suck energy. Quitting unused apps running in the background is a simple way to extend your iPad's battery life.
Another way to conserve energy and boost battery life is to adjust the screen light intensity. It takes energy to light that beautiful iPad screen, so it's wise to adjust settings to as low as is comfortable without straining your eyes. Reducing your iPad from full-bright levels will help so you don't get a battery warning sooner than you'd like - simple click on the settings icon on the screen and adjust appropriately.
As more of the world goes mobile, tablets are here to stay. Use these tips to get the most out of your new iPad and enjoy the features and programs you love from all your technology devices.

Product Description
New for 2013! Axe has teamed up with 2-Time NCAA Player of the Year and current member of the National Pro Fastpitch League's Florida Pride, Danielle Lawrie, to release her debut signature fastpitch softball bat! Made from LP1 Alloy, this bat is comparable to the top alloy fastpitch bats in the game - without the huge price tag! As with all Axe bats, the Danielle Lawrie Signature model features the revolutionary Axe handle. Refined this year with improved ergonomics that deliver better performance and comfort, the Axe handle looks exactly like what it sounds like - the handle of an axe. It defies conventional thinking, but the Axe handle is made to fit your hands, puts the bat in your fingertips, establishes a consistent swing plane, and puts you in a position to hit for maximum power! Players worried about one-sided hitting... fear not! All of the new Axe bats feature the Engineered Hitting Zone (marked on the end cap) where everything is optimized - balance, sweet spot, barrel performance and durability - for your contact point. As Danielle puts it, "The Axe is the first bat where I can really feel my hands through the hitting zone. After using this, there's no way I can see myself using anything else." Axe is so confident that you'll love this bat, that they are offering a 30 day, no questions asked, money-back guarantee. If the Axe handle isn't for you, simply send it back. What do you have to lose? Axe: Unleash Your Swing! The Axe Danielle Lawrie is approved for play in ASA, USSSA, NSA, ISA, and ISF. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

Jergens Natural Glow 3 Days to Glow Body Moisturizer Reviews
Not Good!Oh my goodness, this one is pretty bad. I took a shower as I normally do before I apply self tanner. I applied the light/medium color all over my body and sat around naked for about an hour before I went to bed expecting a nice glowing color as I usually get from other self tanners. Well, I was totally unhappy of what I found the next morning. My knees, top of my toes, ankels, and the top of my ha...read morends were orange! My inner arms were very streaky, and the color was definitely turned out darker than a light/medium is supposed to. I just wanted to scrub my whole body to get it off! I sat in the bathtub with a scrubbing buffer and soap and scrubbed for about 20 minutes and it wouldn't come off! I'm giving it a 2 for staying power but this is not one you want to buy. Tried it, done with it! I suggest choosing another brand. I have posted a few that I liked, that didn't turn out like this one. The express power is not worth it. — 1 year, 3 months agoEricaF123 | 448 reviews

I am in love with this product.GREAT product, I've used the medium version. It definitely makes you tan quickly! Yes, there can be a very very slightly orange tint, and yes, it can streak . However, this can be remedied by applying a layer or two of the regular Jergens over it the next day, to even out the color. Overall, I feel that this product looks pretty natural, smells alright, and is better than damaging my skin! I love this product and will continue using it. — 5 years, 2 months agoLipglossandSpandex | 521 reviews

Works quickly but a bit too much at onceI bought this moisturizer (medium skin tones) hoping to prolong the tan that I got over the early summer. Wow, within 3 days I saw some difference, but after the fourth/fifth day I realized that it was giving me more orangey color than I desired. So I guess, it depends on your skin tone. For me twice/3x a week was enough. Otherwise, my skin color did not look natural at all. It got a bit funky sce...read morent, but not worse than any other sunless tanner products.

Excellent for the face!I actually did not use this on my body, but rather the face.

I used latex gloves to apply it (mostly because I always end up with dark palms when I don't) and it went on sooo nicely!! It is a white lotion (that isn't drippy but also isn't super thick either) and has brown balls in it. It smelled pretty good too (considering most of the self-tanners I've tried smelled HORRIBLE!!). I let it dry completely as instructed (which honestly took less then 10 minutes) and then went about my night. About 20 minutes prior to me writing this review, I checked to see if there was any difference AND THERE WAS!!! I looked like I had gone to a tanning salon 2 or 3 times!! I am sooo impressed with this product and the tan I am getting from it that I immediately ran to my computer to write this review for everyone.

Excel Golf to buy majority of The Concession
Date: August 5, 2009
by: The Observer Staff
The Concession Golf Club may soon have a new majority owner.
Excel Golf, a family partnership operated by Sarasota resident Bruce Cassidy Sr., today announced a tenative agreement to buy a majority interest in the club.
Cassidy will be leading the group, which will focus on the continued development of the club and growing its membership while brining financial stability to the golf side of the golf and residential development.
Excel Golf intends to buy additional interest in The Concession Golf Club but not in the residential portion of The Concession, which will continue to be operated by The Concession Land Development, LLC and owned by Core Development.
Cassidy and Excel Golf will not have any control or investment in The Concession Land Development, against part of which Wachovia filed a foreclosure notice recently. However, Cassidy said he expects the success of The Concession Golf Club will have a positive influence on the residential real estate development. The golf club has not been involved in any foreclosure actions.
"I am extremely pleased to announce our group's intentions to acquire a majority ownership interest in The Concession Golf Club, as it is one of the finest new courses in America and deserves the attention to quality and detail that we pledge will drive our management here," Cassidy said. "I have a vested interest in the success of The Concession, not just in golf but also in the real estate development, as I own residential properties here and fully intend on making the golf side of The Concession a big success."
Cassidy is building a home within The Concession. He expects it will be completed in December.
Cassidy's and Excel Golf's involvement with The Concession dates to 2008. He formed the entity to hold the interests of Excel Family Partners LP following an investment he made that enabled construction of The Concession's 33,000-square-foot golf clubhouse to begin. The clubhouse is expected to open this fall.
According to the terms of the sale, Kevin Daves, who owns Core Development, will retain a minority ownership interest in the golf business. Daves is the original developer of the residential community and golf club.
"Bruce and I share the same goal of making The Concession one of the best golf clubs in the country," Daves said. "I am very excited that Bruce is bringing his financial resources and business experience to ensure the long-range stability of the club."
Cassidy and Daves expect the transaction will close in about 60 days.

More PXE Magic
In this article, I've decided to follow up on a topic I wrote about not in my column directly, but as a feature article called "PXE Magic" in the April 2008 issue. In that article, I talk about how to set up a PXE server from scratch, including how to install and configure DHCP and TFTP. Ultimately, I even provide a basic pxelinux configuration to get you started. Since then, PXE menus with pxelinux have become more sophisticated and graphical and could seem a bit intimidating if you are new to it. In this column, I explain how to piggyback off of the work the Debian and Ubuntu projects have done with their PXE configuration to make your own fancy PXE menu without much additional work. I know not everyone uses Debian or Ubuntu, so if you use a different distribution, hold off on the angry e-mail messages; you still can use the PXE configuration I'm showing here for your distro, provided it gives some basic examples of how to PXE boot its installer. Just use these steps as a launching off point and tweak the PXE config to work for you.
Simple Ubuntu PXE Menu
If this is your first time configuring a PXE server, for the first step, I recommend following my steps in the "PXE Magic" article to install and configure DHCP and TFTP. Otherwise, if you have existing servers in place, just make sure that DHCP is configured to point to your TFTP server (if it's on the same machine, that's fine). And, if you already have any sort of pxelinux configuration in your tftpboot directory, I recommend that you back it up and move it out of the way—I'm going to assume that your entire /var/lib/tftpboot (or /tftpboot on some systems) directory is empty to start with. For the rest of this article, I reference /var/lib/tftpboot as the location to store your PXE configuration files, so if you use /tftpboot, adjust the commands accordingly.
Both Debian and Ubuntu provide a nice all-in-one netboot configuration for each of their releases that makes it simple to PXE boot a particular release yourself. The file is called netboot.tar.gz and is located in a netboot directory along with the rest of the different install images. For instance, the netboot.tar.gz for the i386 Ubuntu 12.04 release (named Precise) can be found at http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz.
To get started,
cd to your tftpboot directory, and
then use
wget to pull
down the netboot.tar.gz file (I'm assuming you'll need root permissions
for all of these steps, so I'm putting
sudo in front
of all of my commands),
and then extract the tarball:
$ cd /var/lib/tftpboot
$ sudo wget http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/
$ sudo tar xzf netboot.tar.gz
$ ls
netboot.tar.gz pxelinux.0 pxelinux.cfg
↪ubuntu-installer version.info
As the
ls command shows, an ubuntu-installer directory was created
along with pxelinux.0 and pxelinux.cfg symlinks that point inside
that ubuntu-installer directory to the real files. Without performing
any additional configuration, provided your DHCP and TFTP servers were
functioning, you could PXE boot a server with this configuration and get
a boot menu like the one shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1. Ubuntu Precise PXE Boot Menu
Ubuntu has taken the extra steps of theming its PXE menu with its color scheme and even provided a logo. Unlike the PXE menu I demoed in my previous "PXE Magic" article, this menu functions more like a GUI program. You can use the arrow keys to navigate it, the Enter key to select a menu item and the Tab key to edit a menu entry.

Preseed Enhancement
If you wanted to add a preseed file for installation to a headless server, what would you add?
In the given append example you'd do the following:
append vga=788 initrd=ubuntu-installer/i386/initrd.gz auto url=http://serverhostingyourpreseedfile/preseedfile.cfg -- quiet
As for the actual preseed file itself, here's an excellent reference for Precise's preseed file:
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Sold a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $300K in Methuen, MA.
We found Paul by random chance, and it turned out to be a remarkably fortunate turn of events. Paul helped us through the entire process of selling our house and buying our new one. Helped is actually too small a term to describe the role that Paul played in the process - he really was able to be our sole guide through the whole process, and let us know what we had to do on a daily basis. Paul also has an extremely competent staff who assists when duty calls. I can't say enough about how fortunate we were to have Paul on our side for all the expert advice and attention to detail. Thanks Paul!

Bought a Single Family home in 2014 for approximately $300K in Haverhill, MA.
Paul Consoli was a great realtor that that really helped me and my wife find the perfect house. Paul worked with us for close to a year to find the perfect house. He was very patient and respectful for my wifes demands. My wife is someone that needs everything to be perfect for her to say yes and we knew it was a hard task for Paul but he stuck with us and updated us every every time he found something that he thought we would like. He never tried pushing houses that were out of our price range and also didn't try making us consider looking at houses out of the area we really wanted to live in. Paul got us our house at a price we wanted to pay and he knew how to negotiate with the seller to make sure we didn't lose our dream home. Many Thanks to Paul in his hard work and patience with us and we if you are looking for someone who wants to find you and your family the perfect home without rushing you just to make a sale Paul Consoli is the perfect agent for you!
Response from Paul on 02/12/2014
Thanks for allowing me to help. Sometimes great things happen after a little time and you got a great house.

Sold a Single Family home in 2014 for approximately $550K in Groveland, MA.
Our introduction to Paul was his contacting us with a prospective buyer, however we were not able to strike a deal with this buyer. We chose to work with Paul because of his professionalism and his local history of success. Paul was our most recent realtor who displayed extraordinary efforts to creativly market our home and connect us with a buyer. Paul also assisted us in targeting our next home by selecting homes that met our needs and desires. We did recently close on our unique home with a buyer and also closed on our new home on the same day. Paul's direct assistance and the support of his office team made our transactions and relocation as smooth as possible. We were completely pleased working with this realty firm and would highly recommend Consoli Realty.
Response from Paul on 02/10/2014
Thank you both for this note. I loved working with you. You are fun, gracious and considerate. So glad you landed in a great place.

Bought a home in 2014.
We randomly selected Paul off of Zillow to help us find a home when we relocated from California to Massachusetts. Any time you are buying a new home it can be incredibly challenging and stressful, but throw in a cross-country move and things really become interesting. Paul made the entire process feel like a walk in the park. We had a very limited window of time to locate a new home and without Paul's local area experience I'm not sure we could have pulled it off. He was organized, professional, and always made himself available for us, even with a three hour time difference complicating things. It was a pleasure to work with him and his staff. I would highly recommend Paul to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home.
Response from Paul on 01/30/2014
Thanks for calling me last Oct. I don't often get calls from so far away! All the best with the new home.

Sold a home in 2013.
I was very pleased with the services that I received from Paul Consoli at Prudential. I had tried to sell my house before through another realtor and found I had two obstacles. My house was very big and it was in a bad location. Mr. Consoli worked hard and was very active in selling my house. We sold the house and closed papers within a 4 month period. He was very knowledgeable and walked me through each step of the process. I would highly recommend his services.

Sold a home in 2013.
I was very happy with my experience with Paul Consoli. He provided a market analysis that helped me decide on a selling price that positioned my home for a quick sale. We received a full price offer within 48 hours of listing. Following the home inspection, Paul helped negotiate concessions which lead to signing a purchase and sales agreement.
Response from Paul on 12/04/2013
Ed and Amy, Thanks so much for allowing me to help with your sale. I look forward to finding you a home in NH. Happy Holidays

Sold a home in 2013.
We found our real estate agent through a friend who used him and raved about him and how awesome he was. We called him up and he became an amazing and integral part of both selling our house and purchasing our new home. From the moment that he stepped into our house, he made us feel completely comfortable about the real estate process. He was very honest and realistic when it came to things that needed to be done and what to expect while explaining how everything worked. He was never more than a phone call away and always had a solution to any and all of the issues that came up. No matter how big or small the question or problem was, Paul was there every step of the way. He is extremely knowledgeable and an expert at negotiating. We would definitely use Paul again and refer him on to friends.
Response from Paul on 12/04/2013
Mo and Peter. You two have been a real pleasure to work with. Great humor and patience. I appreciate your business very much

Sold a home in 2013.
We were very satisfied with the service we received from Paul Consoli and his team at Prudential Realty. They went out of their way to be helpful and professional about working with us regarding showings. They were also right on target about advising us as to what we could do to facilitate the sale of our house, which was sold in a relatively short time for a price we were all very happy with.
Thank you to all at Prudential Realty.

Hi Eileen and Frank. It was fun to "re-sell" a house that I lived in so many years ago. Thank you for your trust and business. All the best.

Bought a home in 2013.
We found the home of our dreams through the hard work of Paul Consoli and his team of professionals. We are so happy with the job Paul did from start to finish. Walking us through the options of building or buying a new home.
Paul was there every step of the way offering guidance and plotting courses of action when needed. His expertise in real estate may not be needed again, because he found Me and my wife the home we will grow old in. But I would recommend him to anyone.He is the man you want in your corner when the pressure is on.
Paul Consoli has taken the time after the closing to ensure we have everything we need to start our new life. And we do thanks to Paul

Boston >Food & Dining > La Galleria 33
125 Salem St, Boston, MA | Directions 0211342.364697 -71.055515
Mon. - Thu., Sun. 4pm - 10pm;Fri. - Sat. 4pm - 11pm
Neighborhoods: Central, North End
La Galleria 33 is now serving brunch!! Strawberry-marscapone french toast, creamy shrimp and "grits" (polenta), eggs benedict, blood orange mimosas....Delicious!!
Stay away. Bad service. Food mediocre. Used to enjoy going here since the food was pretty good, the service was equally good and they took and honored reservations. What a difference a few months make. Have the anitpasto if you like more salt than cold cuts. Have the Shrimp fra Diavlo if you like sauce with little spice. You might as well stand and hold on to the cutlery that way it will make it easier to dodge the wait staff who are trying to take away utensils before you are finished using them. Enjoy the shadow of staff standing over you waiting to push you out of your chair so they can seat the next set of schmucks.
Honest Review – My mum was in town this week from Denver and her one request was to have a good Italian dinner but one that was not very expensive. My girlfriend and I typically eat at Bacco's but I knew their prices there are higher than she wanted to spend. We read numerous reviews for restaurants in the North End on Open Table and selected La Galleria 33. We were not disappointed in the least. The waiter was attentive and seated us promptly. The bus boy was a bit obnoxious constantly stopping by to fill our waters. We ordered the seafood stuffed mushrooms which was good but not excellent. The bread served with olive oil and olives was very good to start the meal. The dressing for the house salad was not well balanced, the vinegar overpowered the dressing. We ordered veal paradiso; lasagna and veal saltimbocca and all were excellent choices. The homemade pasta was excellent; the veal paradiso is one of the best veal dishes I have ever tasted. The vodka cream sauce itself was to die for, ok maybe a bit extreme, but it is second-to-none. The lasagna was not heavy or overpowered with too much cheese, perfect blend of ingredients. We skipped on dessert as we typically go to Cafe Vittoria whenever we are in the North End. We will definitely return to La Galleria 33 the next time we dine in the North End. As it turned out we ended up paying for the meal anyway!
Excellent Italian fare – After arriving in Boston our first night and wandering through seemingly endless Italian bistros, we finally settled on La Galleria 33 because of the sweet Italian woman welcoming us at the door and promising amazing homemade pasta and the reasonable prices. We got bread with the best olive oil I have ever tasted, including olives. We shared a fresh, balsamic bruschetta appetizer, which was delicious. I chose the homemade gnocchi; the marinara was slightly spicy and overall excellent. There was so much of it too! My husband chose the eggplant rollatini, which was the second best we have ever tried. We were absolutely thrilled with this place and will probably go back before our stay ends.
Ok food.. really bad service. – We visited Saturday evening 11/1/08. From the moment we sat down we felt rushed & unattended. At first greeting our waitress was interrupted by the hostess because a party of 9 was "getting worse" & she needed to "get them seated now". Our waitress told her to take the wine glasses off/away from the table behind us. The hostess said she couldn't do that (uneasy/surprised tone) & our waitress again directed her to take them, she was forcing that table to finish and leave!! We ordered an appetizer & wine. The $16.95 antipasti was skimpy & not worth the price.
When our waitress returned we ordered & since the menu says that they will try to accommodate anything we asked if manicotti was an option. She was curt stating we don't have it and told us to have cannelloni. It wasn't a recommendation; it was a snarly comment. Rather than ask anything else he just ordered a chicken dish & I ordered the veal parm. I did ask what the pasta choices were & was told that it's whatever the chef had ready. I asked what his choices were because I don't care for Rigatoni. She of course said linguini or rigatoni & left the table, we were stunned. The table next to us received their food & had gotten linguini so I was hopeful. Of course when our meals arrived.. I got Rigatoni. The veal & chicken were ok but I did not have any of the pasta. The worst part was that while we were enduring bad service the really upset party of 9 that came in after us was being catered to. We heard our waitress very politely telling them about specials & laughing... we had no idea there were specials at all!
Antoher table asked about Coffee to find out that on Sat nights they do not serve coffee or desserts. She offered no explanation & left that table sitting confused.
It was not a good experience. We are very disappointed with La Galleria. This was suppose to be a special night and dinner set a mediocre tone for the evening that was hard to shake.
I DO NOT recommend this restaurant.
Awsome Italian – It's really refreshing to know that there are still some restaurants in the North End that care about their customers. We went there on a Thursday night. Nearly dragged in by our waitress, I thought this ought to be good, and to my surprise it was fantastic.
The service was impecable and the food was fresh and delicious.
We had such a good time, we felt as if they have known us for years.
I'm truly looking forward to our next visit.
Average food, below average service – Nice setting, easy to fit a large family. Food was OK to good - not very memorable. Service was below average. Mark-up on wine was a little higher than average.
There are plenty of great restaurants in the North End, eat here only as a back-up plan.
La Galleria = 1/2 meals for FULL price!!!! – This was by far the WORST experience at a restaurant EVER! Myself and two friends wanted to meet for dinner and we came across La Galleria 33. We put our names on the waiting list and were told it would be 30-40 minutes until a table was available. We chose to wait outside on the sidewalk rather than in the small foyer and after 25 minutes were told that our name was already called and we "missed" our chance to get a table. The very rude hostess told us that she would "see what she could do" to get us in. An hour and 15 minutes later, the three of us were sat at a table for two.
Within 30 seconds of getting our salads, 2 meals were brought out while the third person had nothing (he hadn't ordered a salad). The waiter from this point on, completely ignored our table. We had to ask the water girl to see if she could find the missing third dinner. 25 minutes later, our friend got his hot dinner, while the other two of us, got to chip away at the icicles on ours. Again, the waiter avoided our table, except to quickly tell the person that had to wait for his dinner that he would have it taken off the bill. He wasn't even at the table long enough for us to ask him to heat our dinners up.
When it was time to pay the bill, I casually asked the waiter if our dinners (the two that were delivered quickly) were supposed to come with pasta. He informed me that yes, both eggplant parm and the chicken parm were supposed to include pasta...we never got it! When I asked to speak with a manager, she was even more rude than the hostess was! The manager (who was also waiting tables in the next section) said that she didn't know why we were complaining because the late dinner was already taken off the bill. I explained to her that we had only taken 3 bites of our COLD dinners because we waited for his AND we only got half of it (no pasta)! She offered to package the pasta to go which was a joke! We should have taken the pasta and dumped it on her head!!
I love this restaurant – La Galleria 33 is a lovely small restaurant beautifully decorated. The pricing is good except wine is high. The food is delicious especially the pasta. Try the spinach cantollini-it is supurb!!! This is the North End's best kept secret.
Horrible Service – I went here with my wife and 2 other couples. When we arrived a group of 6 was in a heated argument with the hostess. The group had arrived 15+ minutes late. Their argument lasted over 10 minutes while we patiently waited and the group was told there was a table of 4 that could be arranged for them. The group refused it and after a long debate was seated at a window table for 6. My group, which was 20 minutes early, was then seated at the table for four that the last group had refused. The waitresses then scowled at us all night because we had a person sitting in the aisle that blocked their path. Bottom line: this place wants money and will sell out your reservation. Make sure to show up 30 minutes early or just make a reservation somewhere else. While the food is good, it's hard to enjoy knowing that the hostess gave away your reservation while you were standing at the door.

why shoot the three? shot clock running down. teams always shoot the ball when the shot clock is almost zero, regardless of the lead.
Three-Pointers: Lakers dismantle Nuggets thanks to Howard's 28 & 20
By Ben Golliver
The Lakers crushed the Nuggets 122-103 at Staples Center on Friday night, improving to 3-3 under new coach Mike D'Antoni and 8-8 on the season.
• It goes without saying the Lakers are the most talented team sitting at .500 or worse at the one-month mark of the season. Nobody else has dealt with as much drama or underachieved so severely. The Lakers won't be .500 for much longer, but at least for now they do possess one prototypical attribute of a .500 team: their quality of play can swing wildly on a night-to-night basis.
The pendulum nearly broke after this one, given how easily the points piled up and how light the mood was just 48 hours after the Lakers crashed and burned in a home loss to the Pacers on Tuesday, scoring just 77 points and giving up a game-winning runner at the buzzer to George Hill.
Dwight Howard isn't always the cause for the Lakers' uneven quality of play, but the Lakers looked in top shape Friday and it had a lot to do with a dominant performance from their All-Star center. His numbers were his best of the season — 28 points, a season-high 20 rebounds, three blocks, and 12-for-16 shooting — and he dictated the game's terms with 16 first-quarter points. The Nuggets had to adjust so heavily to stop him that it was field day time for the rest of the Lakers — 33 points for Antawn Jamison; 21 points for Jodie Meeks; you get the picture. Lakers not named Kobe Bryant scored 108 points. That should be a win 10 times out of 10, especially at home with two days of rest against an opponent on the second night of a back-to-back.
• This second point was going to be a simple one all the way up until the game's final 10 seconds. This one was going to read: Howard just didn't mess around at all, attempting 14 of his first 15 attempts from the paint. The lone exception, until the game's closing minute, was a throwaway halftime heave from behind midcourt. That kind of low-post, inside-the-paint consistency usually produces good things, assuming Howard is under control, and he was on Friday.
Howard is a well-known goof, though, and he decided to mess around, shooting (and making) a three-pointer with nine-seconds left and the Lakers leading by 16 points. He celebrated the shot by holding his release and running back down the court, even as the Nuggets hadn't really defended the possession. Once the game ended, he chest-bumped and woofed with his teammates on the sideline.
Already this season, the Magic got upset at Bulls center Joakim Noah for shooting a late three in an attempt to win free burgers for fans. Noah was admonished by coach Tom Thibodeau for his action. Then, weeks later, Blazers rookie guard Damian Lillard tossed in an uncontested garbage time basket against the Bulls, drawing the wrath of Noah and teammate Taj Gibson, who agreed he had broken the game's unwritten rule governing unnecessary shots during games that are already decided.
Here, Howard clearly crossed the line too, rubbing a loss into his opponent's face when it wasn't necessary. Given what he, and his team, have been through over the last six months, it's understandable that a little glee would be a higher priority than perfect decorum. He might get a pass in this instance, we'll see, but he can't make a habit of this without someone objecting.
Footnote: The Orange County Register noted that this was just the second three-pointer of his career and the first he's made in more than five years.
• Gruesome.
No further analysis needed really. Check out the cut over Howard's left eye at right, thanks to Twitter star @CJZero. Howard actually lacerated his left eyelid during the second quarter, departing for the locker room with the Lakers trainer to receive attention. Howard wasn't gone long and he still managed to play 32 minutes.
His absence wasn't a major scare, by any stretch, and the Lakers were only -1 during the four-plus minutes he missed. The quick pause in his performance, though, served as a reminder of just how overwhelming he can be when he plays to his full capabilities. Howard's had his share of big nights — a sparkling preseason debut, 33 points and 14 rebounds against the Blazers, 23 points and 18 rebounds against DeMarcus Cousins and the Kings, 28 points and 13 rebounds against the Rockets — but this was clearly his best play under D'Antoni and, by extension, the best taste of what could be to come once Steve Nash returns.

It's so rare that you sit still long enough for me to get a long look at you, little daughter of mine – not quite a child, yet no longer a baby. I know this moment is fleeting, just a sliver of a day in which neither of us stop moving for very long, certainly not long enough to wholly acknowledge the transformations occurring as you grow, moment-by-moment, into a little girl.
I know that your busy toddler duties will soon call you away from your stepstool throne and off to some important work: flinging alphabet refrigerator magnets around the kitchen, pointing to horses in your favorite picture book, twirling determinedly like a slow-motion helicopter as your older sister dances circles around you when we turn up the radio for a living-room dance party.
But for now you sit here before me, mostly still, and for a brief time I sense the transience of your present being. Remnants of your baby self still cling to you, like the scent of banana bread that lingers in our kitchen hours after we pull the loaf from the oven. That tummy, a squishy balloon peeking out proudly from beneath the hem of a too-small shirt. Those hands, capable now of games of pat-a-cake, little moon cakes themselves attached to delicate digits as scrumptious as espresso-soaked ladyfingers. Clear ivory skin splashed with pink brushstrokes at your cheeks, which are still full and round and framed by a halo of disheveled cornsilk hair.
And, yet, these vestiges of babyhood are quickly fading as you grow from a cherub into a child. That balloon tummy is deflating slowly as you grow taller. Those hands, forever groping ahead to discover new corners of your outwardly exploding world, are becoming scratched and nicked on the way. Those fingers are growing more dexterous each time they grasp a new handhold, little anchors pulling you forward on this path towards personhood. That face is already illustrating the intricacies of full-grown emotions like anticipation, disappointment, joy and sorrow, with the mere crinkle of those wide blue eyes or the downward arc of those licorice vine lips.
A part of me wants to wrap you up, swaddle you in receiving blankets like a mummy, preserve you as a baby for just a little while longer. Babyhood is such an enchanting time, yet we wish it away so readily, so expectant for the easier times: when they dress themselves and poop on a toilet and don't dump their oatmeal, smiling, onto the floor.
Yet time marches forward, unconcerned with my sentimental longing to keep my second child from growing too quickly. She will grow out of that baby cocoon before my eyes, a curl of tightly wrapped green one day unraveling into a multicolored butterfly the next.
I cannot slow or steer time's indifferent advance, which works to untie those cozy bonds of babyhood and release this person fully into the world. I can only cling to these moments when they come, these moments when you sit (almost) still on a stepstool, long enough for me to see you for who you really are, and savor your baby essence for just a little while longer.

A local male Brittany spaniel officiallly named "Hits All Jack'd Up" completed a rare repeat last month.
The dog, owned by Joe Sikorski and Claire Ricci of Macungie, became just the fourth dog in history to win consecutive ABC National Gun Dog Championships.
"Cruise," as he is nicknamed, accomplished the feat on Oct. 22 at nationals in Ionia, Mich. He won the open title against both professional and amateur handlers, and his owner, Joe Sikorski, is his amateur handler.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
"This only happened because of trainer Pete DeAngelis of Longview Kennels in Slatington," Sikorski said. "He trained the dog very, very well, but he has probably worked harder to train me than the dog. Without Pete, this dog would not be where he is because I was not experienced enough to handle him without the help I had from Pete."
DeAngelis and Sikorski trained the dog at Water and Wings in Zionsville, which is owned by Jeff Dershem. DeAngelis has trained the national champions in five of the last 11 years, and all of them have been handled by amateurs at the national championships.
Cruise is only the fourth dog to win back-to-back national titles in the open classification since the competition was reorganized in 1985. Cruise was fourth in 2010 and now first the past two years.
"It was pretty stressful," Sikorski said of the 52-dog competition. "It's competing with some top-quality dogs handled by good amateur and professional handlers. I was fortunate enough to get a course that allowed my dog to show his strengths, which include covering wide territory well."
Sikorski said he plans to run Cruise in competitions, "until he stops winning."
Bear of a time: Timothy J. Moffett of Barto checked in the largest bear taken during Saturday's opening day of Pennsylvania's four-day statewide firearms black bear season.
According to the Pennsylvania Game Commission, the largest 10 bears that were checked in at bear stations during firearms bear season, which ends Wednesday, all weighed more than 530 pounds.
Moffett downed his male bear, with an actual live weight of 652 pounds, in Middle Smithfield Township, Monroe County.
Locally, one bear was harvested in Berks County, one in Lehigh and one in Northampton, with nine harvested in Schuylkill County, 22 in Carbon County and 39 in Monroe County.
Hunters brought 1,530 black bears to check-in stations on Saturday, about 400 under the 1,936 on opening Saturday last year, and 221 less than were harvested on opening day in 2010 — the first year the state utilized the Saturday opener.
Northampton County Wildlife Conservation Officer Brad Kreider reported that seven black bears were harvested during the early bear archery season: "At least two more bears were hit but not recovered, and one [was] taken illegally, with citations filed," Kreider said.
Multi-year fishing license available in Pa.: Beginning Dec. 1, Pennsylvania anglers will have the option to purchase multi-year fishing licenses as well as multi-year trout stamps and Lake Erie permits.
Licenses can be purchased for either one, three or five years. The multi-year option helps customers prevent the yearly transaction and processing fees, with the five-year customer saving $6.80 over the life of the license.
"Anglers can select from a variety of rods, reels and equipment, so it only makes sense that they should have the ability to purchase a license which is good for several years," said Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission Executive Director John Arway. "It's convenient and provides for one less thing to worry about. Now anglers can purchase a multi-year license and know that when friends and family want them to go fishing, they don't have to worry about whether they renewed their fishing license."
Anglers who purchase multi-year licenses will receive a free online subscription to Pennsylvania Angler and Boater magazine, along with offers from retailers and other incentives, including fishing equipment.
Multi-year fishing licenses can be purchased online (www.pawildlifelicense.com), at more than 900 issuing agents (http://fishandboat.com/flagent.htm), county treasurers' offices, or at PFBC regional offices.
