Dover's new Greene Turtle Bar & Grille offers a fun family dining experience for all.
Dover residents looking for good food in a family-friendly environment now have a new place to go: the Greene Turtle Sports Bar & Grille, located on U.S. Route 13.
The new restaurant, situated in the long-empty Golden Corral building, held its soft opening Dec. 16, but had its formal ribbon cutting on Jan. 23, with U.S. senators Tom Carper and Chris Coons present.
"I think that Dover not only needs a new restaurant, but something with a fun atmosphere," said General Manager Jason Hajek. "We have fun and our guests have fun when they come in here.
"There are other sports bars in town, but we cater to families," Hajek said.
One of the Greene Turtle's many amenities are a slew of flat screen televisions along the walls, each tuned to different sports-related channels. The same is true for the many booths situated along the south side of the building, except parents can change the programming to one of several kid-friendly networks, such as Nickelodeon.
That arrangement's proven pretty popular, particularly on Tuesday nights, where youngsters eat for free, Hajek said. The restaurant also offers a 15-percent discount for military personnel, he added.
"For everything they do for us, that's the least we can do for them," Hajek said.
Dover's Greene Turtle is the Maryland-based franchise's fourth operation in Delaware, with three more planned for the near future. The 7,800 square-foot building can accommodate almost 300 guests between the main dining room, bar, and a private party room that seats 35 patrons. The restaurant also features a 22-seat patio area with two televisions, which will open in the spring.
Hajek said the Greene Turtle features an Eastern Shore-based menu, with Maryland-style crab cakes being a particular favorite. In addition, guests have the option of ordering more than a dozen burger combinations, 10 varieties of chicken wings, sandwiches, soups, salads and wraps. The restaurant also features chicken, steak and fish entrees, as well as 26 locally-brewed craft beers, including Fordham, Old Dominion and Mispillion River.
"If you like craft beers, you're in the place in Dover with the most variety," Hajek said.
Customers can enjoy those beers drinking from their own, numbered mug as part of the Turtle's Mug Club. The mugs − there are approximately 700 of them − hang above the bar waiting for their owners to arrive.
"For a small, one-time fee, you purchase a mug, and no one else can drink from it," Hajek said. "It makes you part of the family here in Dover."
Restaurant management is nothing new to Hajek. A native of Bel Aire, Md., he often accompanied his parents to Ocean City, Md., site of the first Greene Turtle. Over the course of his career, he's worked at Ruby Tuesdays, Applebee's and Buffalo Wild Wings.
"You might say I've been around the block," Hajek said.
The Greene Turtle franchise is known for giving back to the communities in which their restaurants are located, and that's the case here in Dover, Hajek said.
A silent auction already has raised almost $2,500 for multiple sclerosis research and the restaurant features the Funds for Friends campaign, raising money for worthy organizations by giving back 20 percent of the days' receipts from customers who bring in Funds for Friends coupons.
Business for the new restaurant, which employs more than 140 full- and part-time staffers and managers, has been good, Hajek said.
"We're definitely very happy with the sales we've been doing and with all the repeat business we've been seeing," he said.

Podcast: Jesse Fox of Ram's Gate Winery
In the first week of my stay in Napa, I was invited to join Jesse Fox and his wife for a picnic in the town of Sonoma for the Sonoma Farmer's Market, which is anything but your ordinary Farmer's Market thanks to the open bottle policy! So we parked ourselves in the park, bought some food-truck delights and sipped on Rose. A mutual friend from New York put us in touch. Fifteen minutes into meeting the world seemed incredibly small: Jesse, it turned out, was hired to be the Assistant Winemaker at Ram's Gate Winery, a brand new "Zarathustra" on the mountaintop winery perched on a hill in Sonoma/Carneros with 360 degree views of the rolling hills of Southern Sonoma. And consequently where I had been hired to consult on social media and events. Jesse and I became fast friends and over the course of my stay in Napa had many a drink, dinner and conversation pow-wow. Jesse was headed for a career in the restaurant world, having come to Napa to work at The French Laundry. His story of transition to the wine industry is a great tale. You'll get a real sense of place thanks to Nature's underscoring soundtrack… After listing to the interview, if you're curious to read about my personal experience working with Ram's Gate, visit Winetology. Listen, enjoy and elevate your afternoon.

Hello, I'm new to this site, though I have been looking at the pages for a couple months now. I'm a high-schooler currently, and really want to pick up the habit of making bento (/just packing lunch in general) for this school year, seeing as normally I completely skip lunch, or just eat junk food.
My family handles dinner etc, so I don't really have the control to make foods for dinner that I can save and toss in a bento for lunch the next day. It'll be just me doing this, and I don't eat a huge amount, so it'll be all too easy for me to end up with food being left over and going bad. I feel like this might be my main issue, as it seems like many of the recipes on this site have many, many parts to them, and for the little I'd have to make for just myself I don't think it's be worth the time. And I wouldn't want to make large servings, because given the choice, I'd rather make too-small servings rather than too-big and watching them go bad, seeing as I'm used to skipping lunch.
And I guess it'd be easiest to say that, while I'm not vegetarian, I don't really eat much meat or seafood. Out of them, chicken's probably the only meat I actually like. And I feel like meat would also be harder for me to make than other foods. On the plus side, I love rice and fruits, which are easy/effortless. I think I'd love cooked vegetables, but I don't really have any recipes for them that I've tried.
So I was wondering if anyone had any recipes, advice, or tips?
I'm sorry for the really long post everyone. I feel really bad now, because I'm so picky. =(
And... This seemed to be the right forum to post this in? I'm not too sure, but I think there are a few topics that are slightly similar, but I'm really sorry if this is misplaced.
Hi, Sugar! Great that you want to get involved with bento making; you will be eating better, saving money and exercising a creative part of yourself. You may even find that you have more energy in the afternoon because you won't have that late afternoon blood sugar drop.
You say that your family takes care of dinner, how about getting involved in food prep? For instance, if you are in charge of making the salad, make it a little bit bigger and then just before adding the dressing, put some in your bento box for the next day. Then come morning, add some tasty toppings: chicken, salami, tuna, cheese, hard boiled eggs, whatever sounds good to you. Put some dressing in a small container/bottle and toss just before eating. Remember that dinner leftovers can be great in a lunch bento. If you help with dinner clean up, you can pick and choose things for your bento as food is being put away. If you have access to a microwave at school even better! Once your family realizes what you are doing, not only will they appreciate your help in the kitchen, they might even try to plan meals that will support your efforts -- they may even join you!
A few months ago I thought I'd try bento making by making one bento a week for my husband to take to work (that's now up to twice a week) I also began making bento for our plane trips and an occasional snack bento. Then a few weeks ago I realized that if I made a bento for myself at the same time that I made my husband's, it would only take a few minutes more. Now after I've been running around doing my errands and other household chores, it's wonderful to come home and open up my cute little bento box and find a beautifully arranged and tasty meal. It sez that someone cares about me. *_*
One thing is that... if you make something with a lot, you can always freeze what you have left for another lunch. I also suggest starting to get involved with dinner prep. Or even just requesting some smaller things.
To me, making my bento really became a way to sort of... love myself. It takes some effort, but once you get used to it, you can generally put together a lot of it the night before to make in the morning. And viola! A bento that will make others jealous, making them wonder who loves you enough to make such beautiful food.
And, eventually, you could start doing bentos for other people in your family. I make my sister one, and on days when I don't have to go to school, for whatever reason, I make one for my Mom and I to enjoy together.
As for recipes... honestly, this is one of the best sites for bento recipes. A lot of them are really, really simple.
I'm currently only making bento for myself as the sprog isn't back to school. I have a freezer stash, I do this when I have enough space and I bulk cook for the freezer. My stash includes things like portions of rice, tonkatsu pork, spring rolls, gyozas, sui mai. Frozen veggies are fantastic for bento, you just grab a handful from the bag and staem them while you're making something else for your box. A box of pre cut veggies lives in my fridge during the week too. I chop them all up on a Sunday night and keep them in lock&lock tubs. I now can throw my lunch together in 10 minutes the night before I need it. Then it lives in the fridge until the next day. I pack it in an insulated bag and I have a few small gel ccol packs that I throw in the bag next morning with my bento before I leave for work. If I'm making something warm like rice, I preheat my rice pot and nuke the rice from my freezer stash while I eat my breakfast. Easy peasey!
an idea if you plan on making small portions, try and invest in some silicon cupcake/muffin cases
you can set out individual portions and freeze them inside a tub (to prevent freezerburn/easier to handle) then just remove a portion the day before you need it for your lunch. they also look cute and add a bit extra colour to your bento.
suggest to your parents (if its possible) setting aside some time on a weekend to have a little cooking session, pick out some recipes that you want to try, get the stuff in and make and freeze some to use through the week, you'll have fun experimenting with new food and spend some quality time with your family while you do it :)
I also make bento only for myself. I only cook for myself, period, but despite the fact that I COULD make leftovers intended for bento, I've realized that I seldom do.
Rice is really easy to keep frozen, especially if you freeze it in the shape of your bento so you just have to pop it in.
Vegetables, I usually make fresh. They never seem to work well left over.
Gyoza are super-easy to deal with in the morning from frozen. You could make them yourself so they're healthier. (boil and coat with a drop of olive oil so they don't stick)
Soba noodles are also super-easy to deal with in the morning, and frozen sauce cubes keep them fresh.
Anything that you can marinate overnight and cook in the morning is good. My favorite is Maki's teriyaki chicken recipe.
All the pretty bento pictures SEEM to have many parts, but they don't have to. Mine is usually divided into carb/starch on the bottom, protein and veg on the top. Since I cook everything in small pieces (bite-sized chicken or broccoli pieces) I seldom have to deal with gap fillers, so my bentos are plain-looking but healthy.
I usually plan my bento by picking a protein from Maki's recipes, then adding veg and rice. I also don't mind eating the same thing for a week straight, so my food never goes bad. Decrease the proportion of food in the recipes for smaller amounts, and you shouldn't have a problem.
Congrats on making bentos! (Don't apologize for your long post; ours are long too!) I think the #1 thing for you to do, as everyone has suggested, would be to get involved in dinner prep. Remember, you don't have to cook the whole dinner every night. I'm sure your family would be happy if you did some work with the main course and let them handle the side dishes. Good luck! ^^
Wow. I was not expecting so many replies. Thanks everyone!
I think I'm going to have to make a note page with all your advice. (But that's a good thing!)
Really, thank you a ton everyone. :D
Sugar, what an impressive post. You've really organized your thoughts regarding what will and what won't work for you in bento-ing. It took me some practice to realize I couldn't just apply what worked for everyone else to my own bentos, and you seem to have figured this out beforehand. Good show!
The grandson who lives with me is younger than you are, but he's certainly in the same position in terms of not being in charge of most household meals. What works for him is to regard his bento-making as a sort of treasure hunt. He looks in the fridge to see what's already there that he might turn into bento "gold." A dab of cream cheese and some grated cheddar might get mixed with a splash of hot sauce and used to stuff celery from the bottom drawer, and put beside an egg he boiled the night before--that kind of thing. Since you're not in charge of grocery shopping, planning ahead might be less feasible than just training yourself to make "art" out of found materials in the cupboards.
Don't try to keep this a secret from your parents. If you outline the general reasons why you want to do this (health, saving money, not eating junk food) they are far more likely to be supportive than to brush you off. If you tell your (primary food-buy-and-cooker) that you want to learn to cook some quick things, they will probably be flattered and excited to teach you. By browsing this website I think you'll learn how to cook relatively healthy things very quickly - you can even get (primary food-buy-and-cooker) in on it - if you agree to cook the rice for a week every Sunday with help, you can portion out for the dinner meal, say 4 or 6 cups to feed the family in a big tupperware, and a smaller tupperware with 1/2 cup portions for your bento. Tell your parental unit that you will keep the fridge and freezer organized and clean in exchange for real estate inside of it - I know my mom is horrible at keeping her fridge organized and usually has half-dead veggies and approximately 6 lbs of cheese at any given time because she doesn't keep a running inventory. Whenever I go home on vacation (I'm a college kid) they invariably have several nights worth of leftovers in the fridge - your parents will probably be happy to see leftovers getting consumed with aplomb instead of rotting and getting wasted.
So in summary, my advice is - enlist help. Maybe make a bento for one of your parents every week to show them how awesome it is. If you've got kid brothers or sisters, offer to make a mini-bento of healthy stuff for them too sometimes to help out (primary-caretaker). If you show your parents you're being responsible not only for yourself but your family, they will be more likely to support you, and maybe buy fancy furikake, onigiri molds, or a sweet cinnamaroll box ;D
I agree completely! For all of you who may have replied to my forum about a morning bento schedule, this is really what I wanted to get across (It seems like a stretch, I know) but this seems to be a pretty-common problem for bentoing high-schoolers. Now that I've read a couple more topics it seems I'm not the only one!!
Foodies do it better.

If you're in the market for a high-end city bike that no one else has, then the new Budnitz No. 3F might just be the ride for you. Established by Kidrobot founder Paul Budnitz, Budnitz specializes in luxury titanium commuter bikes. The No. 3F represents a materials departure into steel — with a more reasonable price tag to match.
At $2,800/£1,723, the No. 3F is not cheap, but it is still substantially less than the signature titanium models.
No grease here. Budnitz uses a Gates belt drive for the single and 11-speed models
As with other Budnitz bikes, the No. 3F can be purchased as a singlespeed or an 11-speed with a internally geared hub. Both come with Avid BB7 disc brakes, Paul brake levers, Yokozuna housing and Budnitz titanium seatpost, stem and handlebar.
The 29in Velocity Blunt wheels roll on 2.35in Schwable Super Moto Racing tires, which use the same rubber compound as the German tire company's top-end racing tires.
But the main story with the No. 3F is the frameset. The steel frame has Budnitz' signature split top tube and comes with either a steel or titanium Budnitz fork.
The bike comes in four sizes, and optional accessories include locking wheels skewers, alloy or wood fenders, and a Bellini brass bell.
The No. 3F features a steel frame, which brings the price down from the company's titanium bikes

Business Dictionary.com defines Mental Models "…as beliefs, ideas, images, and verbal descriptions that we consciously or unconsciously form from our experiences and which (when formed) guide our thoughts and actions within narrow channels." Wikipedia.com defines the Mental Model "…as an explanation of someone's thought process about how something works in the real world. It is a representation of the surrounding world, the relationships between its various parts and a person's intuitive perception about his or her own acts and their consequences. These representations of perceived reality explain cause and effect to us, and lead us to expect certain results, give meaning to events, and predispose us to behave in certain ways."
Think of a mental model as a schema (or map) for how an individual (and in the case of an organization, an individual employee) will process and interpret information. This schema is the roadmap for the unique reality of that individual in that organization. When our mental models are disrupted, even slightly, our internal GPS will detour and recalculate.
Leaders, managers, supervisors—this can be really important. It means that how employees understand their work is constantly in flux. Add-in the anticipated disruption of organizationally planned change initiatives— and the lackluster results of the Best Places to Work index make perfect sense.
What should you do?
- Recognize that mental models are hard to shift. Current events cause many of us to question our foundation or the perspectives we are accustomed to "believing in" or "leaning on" in both our daily work and personal lives.
- Validate the shift. Create an environment that will embrace the dynamic mental model and reward the employee teams that develop unique transitional processes as a guide.
- Integrate an external advisor or an internal team for support. The support should be to assist the individual employees with the mental model recalculation caused by change and if necessary, help navigate in a new direction.
Mental maps are the foundation of our global navigation systems and they are dynamic. The dynamic nature of "shift" can be positive or negative. It can make our daily work tasks less complicated or more cumbersome. If we define an adaptation process that will recognize, validate, and integrate the "shift"…maybe those elusive little topographic lines will become a little easier to understand.

Thank GOD they are re-packing Anakin and Yoda, because those figures are just IMPOSSIBLE to find on the pegs right now. Two-per case is great for Obi, Rex, and Fox, but why not the SBD and Wolffe too? Do they really think those figures are LESS in demand than Yoda or Anakin?
So technically since Fox hasn't been around since S3, this will be a S5-type preview figure?
Hopefully, the Fox figure will just be a repaint of this year's Cody.

In this moving portrait of a vanishing way of life, documentary filmmaker James Spione explores the century-long struggle of his mother's family to hold onto a small dairy farm near Cooperstown, N.Y. Drawing on remarkably intimate interviews with three generations of Ames family members, Spione chronicles the backbreaking work, agricultural innovation and determination in the face of tragedy that led to the success of the operation.
At the same time, "American Farm" reveals the profound shifts in attitude and long-simmering family conflicts that have created the current crisis: no one in the next generation is willing to take over the farm.
As he approaches 70 years of age, the director's cousin Langdon is now faced with selling a property that has been the center of family life for 150 years. Narrated entirely by the people that grew up there, "American Farm" is both powerful tribute to, and sober demystification of, one of America's most hallowed and least understood institutions.

ECS Geforce GT 240 Review
AMD/ATI has been padding the market with its recently released midrange 5750 and 5770 cards for a while now. nVidia answered back with the low end GT 240, GT 220, and GT 210, and low end of midrange GTS 250 (for OEM, GTS 240 and 205) to even out the 200-series line. ECS has equipped its GT 240 NGT240-512QI-F with 512MB of GDDR5 and packed 96 CUDA cores on a 40nm-process GPU core with a 128-bit memory bus. The clocks are set at 550MHz GPU core, 1340MHz Shader, and 1700MHz memory. Other possible configurations are GDDR3 and 1GB memory size. The video outputs are DVI, VGA, and HDMI. Microsoft DirectX 10.1, OpenGL 3.2, and Shader Model 4.1 are the supported standards for gaming. The GT 200s are low power devices that don't even need auxiliary power, so while this card definitely won't be a hardcore gaming beast, it won't break the electric bill either. These look like good HTPC or PhysX cards, at least. 3D Vision works too and gaming capabilities should be similar to the 8800/9600 GSO's with 96 CUDA cores of prior generations so this card could be a capable affordable graphics card for entry/mainstream gamers or users looking to easily upgrade an OEM tower.
For any serious gaming, this card and the other GT 200s take a back seat since they are SLI incapable - they do work well as a PhysX accelerator, enough so that in testing of another GT 240 (the Palit GT 240 reviewed prior), aided by a vanilla nVidia GTX 260, that games using PhysX, such as Batman Arkham Asylum, performed far better and allowed PhysX settings to be cranked up.
Closer Look:
The front of the box has an RPG-style female archer shooting a fancy (probably magic) bow that has nothing to do with video cards, except rendering perhaps - a common trend with most companies. The only identifier for what video card is inside was a slip-on cover that was ripped during shipping. The slip says GT240 with 512 MB GDDR5 and 128-bit DVI/HDMI/CRT, which covers most of the pertinent information. The bottom of the front says some of the other technologies the card supports; note that it says OpenGL 3.1 rather than 3.2, which the card does support as per nVidia's website. Rotating to the back is a screenshot of Darkest of Days and some accelerated applications. The features listed on the front are in several languages on the back right. The slip lists the key features like Windows 7, DirectCompute, and OpenCL support. nVidia technologies like PhysX, Cuda, and PureVideo HD are also supported. Minimum requirements are a motherboard with an open PCI Express x16 slot, 300W or greater system power supply with a 12V amperage of 18A or more - based on a PC with a Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, and 150MB of hard drive space.
The sides and top/bottom are void of any pertinent information other than "Graphics Card," PCI Express 2.0, ECS Elitegroup, and Geforce. Some artwork keeps them from being boring however. The box is smooth and does its job of protecting the card but the only important information was on the slip that was damaged. Some minor information is listed on the front and back.
Opening the box is the standard corrugated cardboard box that protects the graphics card and accessories. Opening it up we find that the card is protected by both an antistatic bubble wrap bag and a PET film antistatic bag. The card is well protected!
The only accessories that come with the card, common for mid/low end cards, are a manual and driver disc. No adapters are really needed save for the few users who use standards outside of the ones that the card supports, like S-Video.
Time to double unwrap the card and get some photos of it!

A Real Raincoat
Added Jul 1, 2012
by carolyn-s
Perth, Australia
I have made a raincoat! and am pretty pleased with it since this is the first time I have attempted anything "technical". I drafted my own pattern with the help of my old previous raincoat, and made my new one using nylon ripstop fully lined with polyester net. It has a drawstring hood and a separate high inner collar, two front zippable pockets covered with a fullwidth waterproof flap, and velcro lined tabs to tighten the wrists. All the inner seams of the shell are French seams for waterproofing purposes, and have been sealed on the inside with Seam Grip.
I have more pictures and details of making this in a boastful post on my blog here
Material Notes
nylon ripstop, polyester net lining, nylon cording, plastic cor-dtops, separating zip and 2 dress zips, eyelets, and Seam Grip for waterproofing

This is an experience that is sure to refresh and revitalize you. Shoja is a little village, which is just 5 kms from Jalori pass 3223m, which links Shimla to Kullu district. With the advent of summer, the whole drive wears a festive look with blue Iris in full bloom, gently forcing the mind to outline the plan to the next visit. While the drive to the retreat is a pleasure in itself, the numerous walks and treks in the surrounding forests and meadows are a special feature of the area. The Banjara Retreat is a solid cedar wood house in the local architectural style tucked away amidst thickly wooded forests from which you can get a panoramic view of the snow covered Himalayan ranges in the distance. Shoja boasts dense forests of Deodar rich in wild life i.e. Deer (Black & Brown), Barking Deer, Musk Deer, Leopard, Jungle Hog and Monal (The State bird of Himachal).

I absolutely am in love with this purchase. It has been worn a few times already and has held up great after each wash with no fading, loss of shape or pealing. This graphic works best I think against the grey I chose. Love that this artist represents the beautiful diversity of our Puerto Rican culture. This image resonates with me being that I am Puerto Rican of mostly African descent. Thank you Ida Yvette Robles for representing all of us Boricuas!

This item arrived stained and dingy. The t-shirt itself has a stain on it and the color is absolutely nothing like the photo. The product detail has my image on a white tank top; however, the tank top that arrived looks like it was washed with a bunch of brown clothes and has a dirty look to it, aside from the stain. I took a picture of a Gildan white t-shirt I own (thats been washed several times already) with the tank top I received to show how dingy the tank looks. I've opened a ticket regarding a refund or replacement on this item and still have yet to hear back from anyone. Yet again, not a good first impression for this company.
I am a self taught artist..I have been drawing and painting since I was a little girl. I have lived in Indiana all of my life. I am a Christian and give God the credit for all the talents that he has given to me. I am married to a wonderful man..His name is Scott. I have two children and one Stepdaughter and I am very proud of them. I have 3 beautiful granddaughters (June, Hazel and Audrey) and 3 Handsome Grandsons (Warren, Thomas and Logan) and I just found out another Grandchild is on the way !!!. I also have one white Pekinese, a few cats and 4 Parrots...and yes...the Parrots all talk...I am an animal lover...Can you not tell.??? One of my favorite hobbies is to paint and draw....I hope you will enjoy my work as much as I have enjoyed...

St. Jude Medical Inc.'s STJ, -0.32% fourth-quarter earnings fell 4% amid an increase in restructuring charges and other items, while the medical-device maker's revenue also declined in a soft market for heart-rhythm devices.
For the year, the company projected per-share earnings of $3.68 to $3.73, above recent estimates of analysts polled by Thomson Reuters for $3.62.
For the current quarter, the company forecast per-share earnings of 91 cents to 93 cents, also higher than analysts' views for 89 cents.
St. Jude has been on the defensive amid continued negative attention focused on its Durata heart lead. Last week, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said an inspection of a plant that makes St. Jude's Durata defibrillator leads revealed manufacturing and quality problems, which the company has said it is working to resolve. The Durata leads have been in focus following recalls of the company's Riata leads in December 2011, though, so far, the Durata leads haven't been linked to the Riata problems.
Chairman and Chief Executive Daniel Starks on Wednesday said, "We are particularly pleased with the strong growth of our atrial fibrillation business, our ability to maintain share in the global ICD (implantable cardioverter debrillator) market."
St. Jude Medical reported a profit of $120 million, down from $125 million a year earlier. On a per-share basis, earnings were flat at 39 cents amid fewer shares outstanding in the latest period. Excluding restructuring-related charges and other items, adjusted earnings were up at 92 cents from 86 cents. St. Jude recently projected earnings of 90 cents to 92 cents.
Revenue decreased 2.5% to $1.37 billion. Excluding currency fluctuations--more than half of sales come from abroad--revenue was down 1%. Analysts recently expected revenue of $1.37 billion.
Gross margin fell to 69.5% from 71.4%.
Heart-rhythm devices, including ICDs and pacemakers, are St. Jude's biggest business. In the latest quarter, the company reported total cardiac-rhythm-management sales fell 6% to $682 million, including a 3% drop in ICD product sales and an 11% decline in pacemaker sales--in line with expectations.
Sales of atrial fibrillation products increased 10% to $239 million--also in line with estimates.
Shares closed Tuesday at $39.67 and were inactive premarket. The stock has bounced back by 31% from a 3 1/2-year low in November.

Worldwide Prevalence
- HCV epidemic
- 170-200 million infected individuals worldwide
- 3-5 million in the USA
- Increasingly diagnosed
- A major source of severe liver disease (cirrhosis)
- Predisposes for the development of Hepatocellular carcinoma
- An estimated 10-30 of all those who are infected may develop major liver damage in the 15-30 years following contracting the infection
Hepatitis C is a global disease. While not every nation in the world has had adequate means to survey its population for incidence of the virus, enough statistics have been compiled to demonstrate the enormous threat posed by hepatitis C. Hepatitis C, in combination with hepatitis B, now accounts for 75% of all cases of liver disease around the world.
Hepatitis C shows significant genetic variation in worldwide populations, evidence of its frequent rates of mutation and rapid evolution. There are six basic genotypes of HCV, with 15 recorded subtypes, which vary in prevalence across different regions of the world. Each of these major genotypes may differ significantly in their biological effects - in terms of replication, mutation rates, type and severity of liver damage, and detection and treatment options - however, these differences are not yet clearly understood.
Figures from epidemiological studies in different regions of the world show wide variance in HCV prevalence patterns, though it is clearly evident that the incidence of HCV is higher among less developed nations. The prevalence of hepatitis C is lowest in Northern European countries, including Great Britain, Germany and France. According to one survey, the prevalence of HCV antibodies in blood donors averages less than 1% for the region. (However, other studies have suggested that rates of infection may be much higher, comparable to rates in the U.S. - approximately 2.5%). Higher rates have been reported in Southeast Asian countries, including India (1.5%), Malaysia (2.3%), and the Philipines (2.3%). The incidence in Japan was 1.2%. Alarming rates were reported for many African nations, reaching as high as 14.5% in Egypt.
These studies, when added together, suggest that over 200 million people around the world are infected with hepatitis C - an overall incidence of around 3.3% of the world's population. Statistically, as many people are infected with HCV as are with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. Without large scale efforts to contain the spread of HCV and treat infected populations, the death rate from hepatitis C will surpass that of AIDS by the turn of the century and will only get worse.

Missouri currently has the lowest tax rate on cigarettes, at $0.17 per pack. The national average is $1.46 per. The proposal would up Missouri's tax by an additional $0.73 per pack. Per Barnes, the cigarette tax would bring in additional state revenue of between $299,000 and $447,000 for the R-2 district, alone.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Jan. 28, 2013) - Mining for Miracles, BC's mining community's longstanding fundraising campaign for BC Children's Hospital Foundation, kicked off 2013 fundraising with the launch of the Diamond Draw at the Mineral Exploration Roundup Conference January 28 in Vancouver.
De Beers Canada Inc. has generously donated a diamond in support of the 2013 Diamond Draw. The diamond is a 1.0 carat ideal square cut De Beers Snap Lake Mine diamond, valued at $17,500. The Diamond Draw package is worth over $22,000, including the diamond, gold and designer setting donated respectively by De Beers, Teck Resources Limited and Andrew Costen of Costen Catbalue. Mining for Miracles thanks these supporters for their generosity.
"Mining for Miracles works closely with BC Children's Hospital Foundation to make donations count. We support research, capital investment and the provision of outstanding health care at the many centres of excellence within BC Children's Hospital," says Jason Weber, 2013 Chair of Mining for Miracles. "Over the past 25 years BC's mining industry has raised more than $20 million for the children and families who visit the hospital, and 100 per cent of the funds raised by Mining for Miracles go directly to the areas of need."
In 2013 Mining for Miracles will be raising funds to support an Institutional Pediatric BioBank at the Child and Family Research Institute at BC Children's Hospital. Biobanking is a new and indispensable research tool that holds the potential to improve treatments and find cures for diseases affecting millions of children around the world. This will be the first Institutional Pediatric BioBank in Canada and will facilitate breakthrough medical discoveries that will improve the lives of children suffering from debilitating and life-limiting diseases.
As in previous years, the success of Mining for Miracles depends on the generosity of individuals and corporations throughout the province. Donations can be made through employee and corporate fundraising initiatives or through fundraising events such as Jeans Day™, the Diamond Draw, Slo-Pitch Tournament or the Teck Celebrity Pie Throw, taking place on May 2, 2013.
Visit www.miningformiracles.ca for more information and to donate.
About Mining for Miracles
Since 1988, Mining for Miracles has raised over $20 million for BC Children's Hospital. Every year, volunteers from the mining community work together to help improve the quality of health care for children in our province. One hundred per cent of funds raised through Mining for Miracles go toward specific projects at BC Children's Hospital. Through its support of the construction of facilities and acquisition of specialized medical equipment at the hospital, Mining for Miracles is helping to keep BC Children's Hospital at the forefront of pediatric care excellence. For more information, visit www.miningformiracles.ca.
About BioBanking
In a BioBank, a collection of biological samples is stored in an environment which will preserve them. Scientists who are members of the bank can seek permission to make a withdrawal from the bank and use the samples for research. In the last 40 years the survival rate for children with cancer has increased dramatically from 10 per cent to 78 per cent. This advancement is due to extensive research and the development of new treatments. Similar progress has been made for other pediatric diseases. A BioBank offers researchers a "ready to use" collection of samples which are the basis of their research experiments.

On Saturday, The Princess Royal paid a visit to Dungeness, in Kent, where she officially named and launched the new RNLI lifeboat, The Morell.
The RNLI, or the Royal National Lifeboat Institution, is a charity that provides life boats for search and rescue missions at sea, as well as a seasonal lifeguard service throughout the UK, with a view to save as many lives at sea as possible.
The Morell is the newest lifeboat at the Dungeness RNLI lifeboat station. The £2 million vessel was funded by the legacy of Barbara Morell, an ardent supporter of the RNLI from Bromley, who passed away in 2009. The boat was named after her and the members of her family. The Morell has been in service since 21st February, when she first first arrived at the lifeboat station. The Morell is the first of the RNLI's new Shannon class vessels, weighs 18 tonnes, and can reach speeds of up to 25 knots.
Dungeness was lucky enough to be visited by HRH Princess Anne during today's lifeboat naming ceremony. pic.twitter.com/gh07Y8wSw8
— RNLI (@RNLI) May 31, 2014
Upon her arrival, Princess Anne was greeted by local residents, RNLI volunteers, and dignitaries. She then acted as the guest of honour at the dedication ceremony, which was led by the Rt Rev Trevor Willmott, the Bishop of Dover. Later on, the Princess met with the crew of The Morell, who entertained her with a demonstration of the lifeboat being launched and performing a rescue exercise, before showing her around the inside of the vessel.
After concluding the tour of the boat, Her Royal Highness said: "It's always a great honour and privilege to name a lifeboat. I do so because it's such a special occasion. I'm sure this is the right place to put it. It is my very great pleasure to name this lifeboat, God bless her and all who sail in her".
The Princess Royal has a great love of sailing and yachting, and, along with her husband, she owns a yacht of her own called Ballochbuie.

When Katie Holmes first collaborated with her stylist Jeanne Yang to design a gorgeous dress for last year's Tropic of Thunder premiere, and then again, creating a striking satin jumpsuit for her own Broadway debut, we had a feeling there was a line percolating. And now, a rep for Katie confirms to PEOPLE that a "line will be sold at Maxfield in the fall." Katie and Jeanne are teaming up for a collection that will include women's and children's clothes, according to WWD, which also writes that the "premium designer" line will be full of classic fare and the children's range is presumably inspired by Katie's daughter Suri Cruise. We can't wait to see it! Tell us: Are you excited to see Katie Holmes's collection?

Image Sensors World Go to the original article...NHK Open House held in Tokyo in May 2017 revealed the latest TV innovations:
3D-integrated image sensor with per-pixel interconnect (together with University of Tokyo): "We have managed to shrink the pixels from the previous size of approximately 80 × 80 µm² to approximately 50 × 50 µm²."
Fast 8K 240fps image sensor: "We developed a 33 megapixel image sensor capable of high-speed operation and constructed a prototype 8K high-speed camera supporting shooting at 240 fps, which is four times the frame rate in 8K test satellite broadcasting. This camera enables the shooting of fast-paced action such as that in sports in 8K ultrahigh-definition video."
And many other innovations including organic image sensor "with a charge multiplication photoelectric conversion fi lm in order to achieve highly sensitive 8K cameras" and "organic image sensors with three organic films that provide sensitivity for each of the primary colors."

Synopsis: What are you capable of?
Clear your thoughts for a "mesmerizing mind-bender" (Rolling Stone) that'll blow you away! Seen through the lens of a troubled teen's video camera, yet filled with eye-popping action and jaw-dropping special effects, Chronicle is as real as it gets. When three ordinary high school friends make an extraordinary discovery, they acquire amazing abilities beyond their understanding. But as their powers develop, so do their darker sides. Fun, harmless pranks soon lead to much riskier activities as the boys' "gifts" - and their lives - spin dangerously out of control!

Key Quote: "I really enjoy swimming and biking, and running is sometimes fun! So, to put them all together is a really fun and challenging sport. I love that there are three separate sports. There is much more variety in training."
Bike shoes: Triathletes wear special shoes while on the bike leg that clip directly into the bike pedals. The athlete will get on the bike barefoot, and then put the bike shoes on while riding. The shoes will remain attached to the pedals the entire race. At the end of the bike leg, the athlete will have his or her feet out of the shoes and get off of the bike barefoot to run into the transition area.
Race kit: This is the uniform that the athlete will wear to race; it will be unique to his or her country and also have personal as well as federation sponsors.
Sitting in: On the bike, some athletes just sit behind other cyclists, gaining the draft but not contributing any effort to the overall progress of the pack.
Flying mount: A flying mount is a way to get on the bike where you literally hop off the ground and jump onto your bike seat. It is a very quick way to start the bike and can give an advantage going into the bike leg.
Drafting: A tactic used for both the swim and bike leg, drafting is when one athlete follows directly behind another to gain advantage. The athlete in front will have to work a little harder than the athlete behind to go at the same speed.
Transition: This is where the athletes change sports, from swim to bike and then again from bike to run. It is critical to get through the transition area as fast as possible so as not to be left behind from the lead group.
Break away: A break away is when one or more athletes quickly increase their effort to move ahead of the rest of the field.
Gear bin: Anytime athletes leave the transition area, they cannot leave any equipment lying on the ground. (Each is given a bin to keep his or her gear in.) The consequence is a time penalty that will have to be served at some point on the next leg of the race.
Lapping: If on the bike course, any athlete is lapped by the lead group, the lapped athlete is disqualified from the race. [Editor's Note: Harsh!]
Helmets: Any time during the race when an athlete is touching her bike, she is required to have her bike helmet on and the chinstrap buckled.
2008: Rule #1, about gear needing to be kept in a bin, was adopted. The rule did not apply in the first two Olympics in which triathlon was a part (2000 and 2004).
2012: Technology for wetsuits has increased dramatically. If this event is "wetsuit legal," meaning temperatures are below 68 degrees Fahrenheit, look out for the TYR Freak of Nature wetsuit. It is incredible!!
2012: In general, triathletes are evolving into faster and faster runners. Don't be surprised if one of the men hits a sub 30-minute 10k and a woman is in the 32-minute range.
Kemper, 36 and a father of three, has represented the U.S. in three Olympic Games. He placed 17th in Sydney in 2000, 9th in Athens in 2004 and 7th in Beijing in 2008. @hunterkemper
The 37-year-old triathlete placed fourth at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. She has a great chance of securing a medal for the U.S. @LauraRBennett

Not all lawyers in United States know details of the legal system when it comes to immigration law, civil law, injury law or immigration law. When you hire one of the Wipp Law Lawyers, you will receive individual, one-on-one attention for your legal needs. When you need aggressive, capable, experienced and knowledgeable legal representation, there is not another firm that is better than ours.
A personal injury lawyer is generally involved in cases where an injury has occurred due to the negligence of another party. When you are injured in an accident, you do not have time to waste. When you are injured on the job, in a car accident, or are unable to work for a significant time due to your injuries, you have certain legal rights. Many who are seriously injured, find themselves permanently disabled and in need of a US car accident lawyer.
You want the attorney you hire to be the attorney that is with you throughout the case. Although any lawyer could take a case to trial, very few actually do. You do not need to become friends with the attorney, but have confidence that you can trust them. The only way to find out who is the best attorney for you is to talk to them. An attorney must be able to communicate well both in writing and orally.
You deserve a lawyer who is not trying to be good at several different things. You can check on-line to see when a volunteer lawyer will be available in your area. You have to really understand what huge attorney specializes in that you all are interviewing. You should consult an attorney for advice regarding your individual situation. Every client has their own unique issues and challenges to overcome. You can be as good as you are willing to be.
The Office of Wipp Law Attorney offers a broad base of opportunities in civil and criminal law practice. Details of how the incident unfolded have not been released. At first glance you will notice the sleek new design.
Legal advice should only be sought from a licensed attorney. Every victim of a negligent or careless action has a story that deserves to be heard. You name a trustee who manages the trust and the assets you place in it.

Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day. So gather 'round, maties, and learn the pirate lingo. Just in case it's been a while since your timbers were shivered, we've compiled a guide to pirate-speak.
Here are the basics:
It all begins with the pronouns. Say "ye" instead of "you," as in "How are ye feeling today?" And use "me" in place of the first-person possessives, such as "I just ate me breakfast," or 'Take your hands off me booty!'
When in doubt, say 'G'yaaaarrrrrrr.' Make sure to roll the "R." (If you need to practice your elocution, track down a "Simpsons" episode that features Sea...

Tons Of YouTube Users Putting Up Videos In Protest To S.978
from the good-for-them dept
We've noted that the bill is getting more attention of late, and it appears that the YouTube community has awakened to the problems with it. If you now do a YouTube search on s978, there are a rapidly growing number of results, with plenty of people speaking out against the bill, in part due to claims and some videos from YouTubers related to worries from video gamers.
Tragically, going through a bunch of the videos... nearly all of them gets the facts wrong in some manner (sometimes getting nearly all the details wrong). I worry about that, because it allows politicians to brush aside the very real concerns about the unintended consequences of the bill. Also, some of the incorrect statements seem to lead to people saying that the bill won't pass because "something that stupid can't pass." And, indeed, no bill is going to pass that will force all these people to take their videos down or to fine them for old videos as some have suggested. The risk is in how the bill could be used by federal prosecutors to go after people embedding certain videos, and then using the letter of the law (though clearly not the spirit) to go after people.
It's good to see so many people speaking out, but it would be better if they spoke factually about the bill, rather than running with some of the wilder assumptions that people seem to be making.

Industries Environmental Documents
FERC Staff issued a final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Bradwood Landing LNG Project (Docket Nos. CP06-365-000 and CP06-366-000)
Issued: June 6, 2008
The FERC staff prepared a final EIS for Bradwood Landing liquefied natural gas (LNG) Project in Oregon and Washington. The proposed Project would consist of an LNG import terminal located about 38 miles up the Columbia River from its mouth, in Clatsop County, Oregon, and a 36.3-mile-long sendout pipeline, crossing Clatsop and Columbia Counties Oregon and Cowlitz County, Washington, connecting the terminal with the existing Williams Northwest Pipeline Corporation interstate system near Kelso, Washington. The LNG terminal would have a sendout capacity of 1.3 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day. Along the pipeline route, would be interconnections and meter stations to deliver natural gas to the Georgia-Pacific Wauna paper mill, Northwest Natural Gas Corporation intrastate system, the Portland General Electric Beaver power plant, and Williams Northwest.
The final EIS was prepared in coordination with our cooperating agencies for the Project, which included the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Coast Guard (Coast Guard), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE), and the U.S. Department of Transportation.
The FERC staff determined that if the proposed Project is approved and is constructed and operated in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, and the project sponsor's proposed mitigation, and the staff's additional mitigation recommendations, it would have mostly limited adverse environmental impacts. The primary reasons that the FERC staff concludes the proposed Project would be an environmentally acceptable action are:
- The final engineering design for the LNG terminal would incorporate detailed seismic specifications and other measures to mitigate the impacts of seismic hazards, and mitigation measures would be implemented along the pipeline route to address landslides and other geological hazards;
- NorthernStar would implement its project-specific Erosion and Control Plans, Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, and Wetland and Waterbody Construction and Mitigation Procedures Plan, and follow the FERC staff's Plan and Procedures to mitigate impacts on soils, wetlands, and water resources;
- NorthernStar would implement various mitigation plans to compensate for impacts on waterbodies, wetlands, vegetation, and habitats;
- Consultations with the COE, Coast Guard, National Marine Fishery Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development, Oregon Department of Environmental Quality, Oregon Department of State Lands, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, Washington Department of Ecology, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, Oregon and Washington State Historic Preservation Offices, and other appropriate agencies would be completed before NorthernStar would be allowed to begin construction;
- The proposed LNG terminal would meet the federal safety regulations regarding the thermal radiation and flammable vapor dispersion exclusion zones, and appropriate safety features would be incorporated into the design and operation of the LNG import terminal and LNG carriers;
- An environmental inspection and mitigation monitoring program would be implemented to ensure compliance with all mitigation measures that become conditions of any FERC authorization; and
- The conditions outlined in the Coast Guard Waterway Suitability Report would be implemented.

So for some reason no one has commented. I am guessing it's because people didn't want to watch and spoil it... Well... they showed the first 22 minutes and then at the end they revealed some new previews and trailers for the movie which looked absolutely fantastic. The blue-ray version should have better graphics, but it was really funny to watch. Styl's appearance was nice to see. It's been a while since I saw him animated in new material.
Furthermore, Index was funny. I guess I normally say that I don't like Index as a character, but she isn't nearly so bad here. Also, I am possibly warming up to her as a character in general.
This also had the scene with Styl's apprentices and the 4 main protagonists of railgun. Kuroko was hilarious... she made customers actually leave
I am pretty sure that this preview was just to basically show a nice intro, hear Arisa singing pretty nicely, show some pretty amazing Academy City mech-robots and then end at an awesome scene (after showing a miracle occur), just in order to make us want to buy the BD.
Well I am sure that preview worked pretty well as it was very excellently done and timed. The new commercials and previews were good as well. Am I one of the only ones here so saw it because no one wants to be spoiled???

For some reason I felt nostalgia creep in, made me remember the days when I used to live in Japan and go to digmon and pokemon movies. Anime movies have a certain feel, atmosphere, and pace to them don't they.
It's a bit abrupt but whatever, only a few weeks time till the blurays out. And I should get it day of unless cdjapan decides to screw me over (which they've rarely done so I think I'm good). What a cash in for j.c. and the to aru series overall huh, I'm buying the railgun s blurays as they come out but also buying the new bluray boxes, and now this movie, and in september Index II bluraybox. So much... so much...
I liked the new scenes shown as teasers at the end... Saw some good stuff.

I guess watching part of a movie could ruin the experience of watching a movie, if you only like watching it in one sitting. I don't mind seeing it in separate parts. Here they ended at a good part. Plus, I could have already seen the whole movie as well but... I decided not to, because I want to see it in good quality eventually with subtitles. I just figured that this was worth watching because I would get to see an idea of how Index III graphics would look like.
That's the main reason I watched this. The movie is fine to watch and all, but I already spoiled the whole plot for myself so... I don't see the point of waiting for it to come out... Anyway, the real version should have graphics that are about 2.5 times as good as the preview version, so it should really look spectacular. While it seems a step back from Railgun S animation and end of Index II animation... it seems like it actually has some pretty good animation. I hope though that it'll be better in season 3, even though one would have to see the whole movie anyway in order to be able to judge whether the animation here seems to be a good sign for the animation to come in season 3 eventually if it comes out.

Forgetting about the actual plot, for anyone who has actually seen the preview unsubbed, how was its animation quality and direction when compared to the recent episodes of Railgun S? I am hoping I can watch a Blu Ray version but you cant compare that to the subbed railgun s episodes...

By the way, @chaos2frozen and R.Lock... you both know what I mean when I say graphics I think so at least I'm referring to animation quality...? I'm not exactly sure what the terminology should be? The pixel quality? The amount of pixels?... anyway...
It looked really good... my point is that I feel like the BD version is going to be absolutely amazing. All I am saying is that after seeing Railgun S and Index II's ending, I want to see a large improvement in animation quality...
Though I liked the preview... Anyway... this is the first season/time I have actually watched streams... so... I don't know any terminology at all excuse me if I say confusing things.

Without subs it's hard to follow, good thing I still remember the Endymion manga which had that part translated.
I found the quality to be really average, for a movie it's a bit surprising.
Also nice ass-shot in the mecha thingie .

The Sports Xchange
Farrell hints at selecting Ortiz to AL All-Star team
BOSTON -- Barring a late surge in the polls, David Ortiz will finish behind the Baltimore Orioles' Nelson Cruz in All-Star balloting. And based strictly on numbers, at least one other designated hitter -- the Detroit Tigers' Victor Martinez -- also deserves to make the American League team.
However, when it comes to getting an All-Star nod, Ortiz has one notable supporter: Boston Red Sox manager John Farrell.
Farrell will manage the AL team, which means he will be able to make seven selections to the 33-man roster. Asked Tuesday which Red Sox players he believes merit consideration, Farrell started with Ortiz before also mentioning ace lefty Jon Lester and closer Koji Uehara. He also noted that second baseman Dustin Pedroia typically is a popular pick among players, who will select 17 players.
"I think we have a good representation of players that are going to be in the conversation," Farrell said.
Through Monday, Cruz had a 996,000-vote lead over Ortiz in the fan balloting, and considering he is tied for the major league lead in homers (26) and RBIs (67), his inclusion in the AL lineup would be well-deserved. Ortiz is batting .248 with 19 homers, 52 RBIs and an .828 OPS. Martinez, meanwhile, is batting .323 with 20 homers, 52 RBIs and a .974 OPS.
Both Ortiz and Martinez are primarily DHs, with little flexibility to play a defensive position.
How many DHs can the AL reasonably carry?
"I guess I could make the choice of as many as I want," Farrell said. "But again, you're going to look at those who are deserving based on the offensive year, and you've got to put together a complete team. The outcome of the game has a very strong meaning to what takes place in October (in terms of deciding home-field advantage in the World Series). But you also want to recognize where performances have been worthy of it, and yet at the same time, every team has to be represented."

Several passersby may have helped save Michael Shane Dickey's home Sunday afternoon from a fire.
Several passersby may have helped save Michael Shane Dickey's home Sunday afternoon from a fire.
Dickey said he was burning a box near his home in the 12000 block of Country Club Road around 11 a.m. Sunday and went inside once he thought the fire was out.
Roughly four hours later, the shed near where Dickey was burning was completely engulfed in flames.
Seeing the billowing black smoke, drivers of three vehicles stopped, called 911 and got the people out of Dickey's home. The residents of the home were not aware of the nearby fire.
Then, everyone worked together to stop the rapidly spreading flames from reaching the home, another shed and a neighboring field by dousing the area with water using buckets and a garden hose.
A short time later, firefighters from the Rolla Rural Fire Protection District arrived on scene and were able to put out the flames.
The shed, which Dickey believed contained hay bales, was completely destroyed.
No one was injured in the blaze.

Welcome to Krakow
Krakow is one of the most beautiful cities in Poland; often called 'the Paris of the East'. It dates all the way back to the 7th Century and was the capital of Poland for more than 500 years. One of the few European cities to survive World War 2 relatively unscathed, today Krakow's entire historic centre has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Blakes's Guide to Downtown Detroit
Name: Blake
Neighborhood: Downtown
City: Detroit, Michigan
My Home: One-bedroom three story loft
I live in one of the most misunderstood neighborhoods in the world. I walk to work, restaurants, shops, markets everyday. I moved here in March of this year to be able to walk to work. I was sick of hearing how people keep leaving Detroit. I wanted to be part of something bigger then myself and make a mark.
Blake's Guide to Downtown Detroit
1. Favorite Neighborhood Home Store
DETROIT ARCHITECTURAL SALVAGE: 4885 15th Street
You never know what you'll find here; I have found old movie theater signage and mid-century modern furniture.
2. Favorite Bookstore
JOHN KING BOOKSTORE: 901 W. Lafayette Boulevard
It's a four-story warehouse filled with so many books it would take weeks to navigate all the sections; this is a book collector's heaven.
3. Favorite Coffee Shop, Café, or Restaurant
CAFE D'MONGO'S SPEAKEASY: 1439 Griswold Street
Only open Friday nights. You come for the fantastic soul food and then settle in for a night of great live music and meeting the most amazing people in the city.
4. Best Place to Pick Up Groceries
EASTERN MARKET: 2934 Russell Street
One of the best farmers markets I have ever been to. If there was ever a reason to visit Detroit it would be to visit Eastern Market.
5. Best Place to Buy Flowers
EASTERN MARKET: 2934 Russell Street
6. Best Neighborhood Park
And the Dequindre Cut.
7. Best Spot to Take Visitors
THE GUARDIAN BUILDING: 500 Griswold Avenue
Amazing cup of coffee and one of the best examples of Art Deco design.
