Game sales increase on the Apple iPhone
30 December 2009 — 12:00 PM
Those with an Apple iPhone have been playing a record numbers of games over the festive period, experts have predicted.
People using the iPhone may be increasingly looking to take advantage of the applications on offer to them to entertain themselves while on the move, which could encourage more people to get money for their mobile to upgrade to the handset.
Raymond Lau, co-founder and chief executive officer of PlayHaven, said: "The week between Christmas and New Years has become the great 'Game Rush' for iPhone games - essentially what Black Friday is to brick and mortar retailers."
He added that the surge in iPhone game downloads is "even more spectacular" in light of the slow holiday sales for games console titles over the holiday period.
More than 15,000 game titles are available in the App Store, reports cellular news.
It was recently suggested by Vodafone that it is looking to attract business consumers to the iPhone when it is available on the network.

Typos endemic to the e-book publishing process
August 23, 2011 | 12:15 pm
By Chris Meadows
Publishing Perspectives has a brief piece on the error-ridden nature of many e-books, especially those of older pre-digital-publication titles. It explains why and how these errors manage to creep in—the different number of digital formats that all need to be corrected, and the age of the source material are often prime factors—as is the rush to get pre-digital works into electronic print as soon as possible so as to sell more copies.
I found amusing this passage, from a spokesman for a publishing company that produced a book so riddled with errors the author of the article got a refund from Amazon for it.
"Open Road recognizes that this is a challenge and therefore has a stringent process in place and puts in a lot of resources to produce quality e-books. The books go through a thorough proofread and at least two subsequent levels of quality assurance before being finalized. While the technology is certainly new and there will always be some mistakes when you publish hundreds to thousands of e-books a year, we are proud of our track record and will continue to invest in and improve our already thorough process."
Get the feeling that butter wouldn't melt in their mouths?
When you get right down to it, the article concludes, software can only go so far, and in order to weed out errors humans have to be involved at the end of the process—and that costs money that publishers aren't willing to throw at every backlist title they convert. And as long as that is the case, e-books are simply going to have more typos.
I still say that if the publishing industry can produce (mostly) error-free print books, it should be able to do the same for e-books. But perhaps this is an unrealistic hope.
Michelle Rhee is just as clueless about e-books as she is about 'school reform'
New e-book software on the way from New York Public Library: Relief ahead for DRM-tortured patrons in your city, too?
What e-reading gadgets and software should Sony crowd-source under the new First Flight program?
Self-published? Here's how to get into libraries—via SELF-e, Smashwords and ebooksareforever
In Warren Buffett's own backyard: Underfunded Omaha libraries. National digital library endowment, anyone?
"We work hard, it's the hardware/software's fault!" So typical, so tiring, so FALSE. The hardware/software for OCR was perfectly suited for the job over a decade ago… you just have to use it properly, and not use low-resolution images of dirty pages run through cheap software. I used to do it regularly, starting with a simple xerox of each paperback page enlarged to fit an 8-1/2 x 11″ page, run that through a sheet-fed scanner, and I experienced less than 1% errors in my conversions. LESS THAN 1%. It's time for the publishers and their contractors to do the job as if it's an important one, and stop making excuses for their cheap procedures and lack of quality control.
My biggest gripe with the errors is the price charged for ebooks. I'm currently reading Revenger (checked out of my local digital downloadable library). It has tons of words that are hyphenated–looks like the words were originally at the end of the line. Why is the error ridden ebook $12.99, when the paperback version is available for $8.00? (That's not really a question, it's an expression of disgust. )
"I still say that if the publishing industry can produce (mostly) error-free print books, it should be able to do the same for e-books. But perhaps this is an unrealistic hope." Yes, it's completely unrealistic. They spent the money on editing once, and simply don't want to do it again, unless they can run it through software. They see it as a chance to milk the cow again, without having to spend any more on feed.
er.. they can't really produce error-free print books. or if they can, they don't.
Two words: crowd sourcing. Give reader software the capacity for users to flag and report errors. Offer a free eBook to the first reader who finds, say, ten acknowledged typos. It's not rocket science, people.
Really, the time for excuses has passed, when ebooks represent 30% of the market, and the only part of the business that is growing.
More importantly, they should not be charging prices as if this were an actual, quality product if that is not the case. If the book is a backlist title they are choosing not to invest in, they should price it accordingly so that customers are not being forced to pay full, retail price for a product that isn't retail quality.
If Project Gutenberg can do it for free, publishers can do it with the ridiculous amounts of money they demand for ebooks, let alone backlist ebooks. I volunteered with PG's proofreading arm (Distributed Proofreaders: great community!) while I was still able to spot errors reliably in English. DP volunteers check one page at a time, comparing each word from the scanned page with the OCR result. Books were old, pages were often in a bad state and included archaic language, complex headnotes and footnotes and indexing. If "untrained" volunteers can deal with complex scanned texts, why can't experienced editors just read through a story and spot the errors? Heck, the readers can do it!
I have been following, publishing and reading ebooks for years. Often the problem of typos has arisen because larger publishers have turned the text file into an ebook before going into design, page layout, and proofing for the paper edition. Ebooks need editing and proofing as much as books. –Dan Poynter, ParaPublishing.com

Please check out the well-written, researched and informative Jackie's Arc.
The healing power of food has long been established, from providing basic metabolic fuel, to the anti-inflammatory properties found in many fruits and vegetables. Eating well can contribute to your general well being. Eating organically specifically can help to nurture and nourish your body while perhaps even treating what ails you.
It is important to eat organically grown food not simply for its nutritive and healing properties, but because the fruits and vegetables are grown without herbicides, pesticides or chemical fertilizers, which can certainly be a detriment to your body. In addition, organic meat and dairy are not treated with hormones that can be harmful to you. It is also now common to find foods that have been genetically modified--genetic manipulation involves splicing the gene of one plant or animal with another. It has been suggested that these genetically modified foods are capable of causing changes to your body or general health in the form of an allergic reaction or perhaps even hormonal fluctuations.
Eating organically is healthier, non-toxic and sustainable, for both people and the environment in which they live. The Centers for Disease Control even provides a link to help you find organic resources.
Now that you have a better idea of why eating organically is the smarter option, it is time to enjoy a meal like the following dish: Spinach Salad with Chicken and Avocado... Enjoy your meal, and enjoy your health.
You will need: A few cups of raw spinach, five miniature limes, one avocado, one tomato, one chicken breast, onion, salt, pepper and feta cheese.
Mash and mix the avocado with spinach leaves. Add the tomato. Slice the limes and squeeze the juice on to the spinach leaves and avocado. Saute the chicken breast and onion and add it to the salad upon completion. Add salt and pepper to taste, sprinkle with feta cheese and enjoy a very simple, very tasty, completely organic meal that is perfect for lunch or dinner.

Florida Today....
Stop me if you've heard this one before.
Independent reviewers believe that NASA's James Webb Space Telescope could be on a path that would lead to more schedule delays and, consequently, the possibility of added costs.
You'll recall, the space agency's next great space telescope was originally estimated to cost taxpayers as little as $1 billion and blast off on a mission to study the evolution of galaxies between 2007 and 2011. Now, the cost estimate is about $9 billion and the launch target is late 2018. After an exhaustive review of the project, and harsh criticism from Congress, NASA overhauled the telescope management and promised Webb was back on track.
A new report, mandated by skeptical members of Congress and made public this week, indicates NASA has made progress on getting the telescope's cost and schedule under control. Some "best practices" long suggested by the U.S. Government Accountability Office are being abided by the new management of the Webb project. But, alas, some best practices are not.
First, the project has what could be too little time and money set aside for unexpected challenges in the development of perhaps one of the most complicated spacecraft NASA has ever flown. In the space business, time is money. If NASA must delay the launch into 2019, which is likely given the historical record, every few months could cost taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars. Already, there are substantial issues with several instruments, some of which could cause additional testing or even reconstruction of some components.
Among the chief concerns of the GAO review: too large a share of the final testing of the spacecraft, upon assembly and before flight, is jammed into the final year or so of its schedule.
A too-tight window remains for problems that inevitably crop up with these big space projects. Without saying it in these terms, the GAO is finding that NASA continues to have a rosy outlook on its ability to deliver on a series of incredibly difficult tasks and overcome challenges without much time delay.

BRITAIN'S computer industry is languishing because the government failed to encourage firms to exploit the research developed under the Alvey programme, Britain's effort in the 1980s to make it more competitive in the field of information technology. Or so says Brian Oakley, the programme's former director.
The original Alvey proposals called for initiatives in education and training, alongside government support for product development. But the Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher, blocked the idea that Alvey should include a training initiative, and the government refused to use its influence as a big buyer of products and services to help technologies out of the research laboratories and into the marketplace. Such patronage has worked well in France.
According to Oakley, the government's refusal to encourage the exploitation of research it has funded stems from a misunderstanding of what R&D alone can achieve. During the Second World War, politicians of all parties saw prototypes, ...

New Orleans, LA (PRWEB) June 20, 2012
The Loyola University New Orleans School of Nursing recently reached another milestone by gaining highly coveted accreditation from the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education for its Doctor of Nursing Practice program. A statement mandated by the U.S. Department of Education and released by the commission confirmed the accreditation.
"The DNP program at Loyola University New Orleans is accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education, One Dupont Circle, NW, Suite 530, Washington, D.C. 20036, 202-887-6791," the commission said.
The accreditation lasts until 2017 and will encompass both the School of Nursing's post-Master of Science in Nursing to Doctor of Nursing Practice program, as well as the newly created post-Bachelor of Science in Nursing to Doctor of Nursing Practice track.
"Our faculty and staff have worked very hard to put together a comprehensive and progressive curriculum that addresses the needs of a changing healthcare system," said Ann H. Cary, Ph.D., director of the School of Nursing. "To be accredited by such a prestigious organization just two years after enrolling our first DNP class says volumes about the direction our program is headed."
In order to gain accreditation, the School of Nursing had to demonstrate a commitment of institutional resources, proper mission governance, quality curriculum and teaching practices, and program effectiveness.
The commission's board of directors awarded Loyola accreditation status retroactively to the date of the last site evaluation in November 2011, meaning that all Loyola DNP graduates are alumni of a CCNE accredited program. The School of Nursing is required to submit a Continuous Improvement Progress Report to the commission, offering any updates on their program, no later than Dec. 1, 2014.
For more information, contact Matt Lambert in Loyola's Office of Public Affairs at 504-861-5448 or mlambert(at)loyno(dot)edu.

Speccing MF02 – We Need Your Help
Sections: MotoringFile Spec Mar 18th, 2013 21 Comments
A few months ago we introduced the concept of MotoringFile Spec. The idea was simple. Over the years, we've fielded hundreds of spec-related questions from readers. What packages should they choose? What accessories are must-haves? We've seen them all. So what if we spec'd our own cars with a few unique touches? With this idea and the help of MINI Chicago the idea become real.
Our first car, MF01, was ordered as loaded as they come and topped $45,000. Yet, it sold rather quickly to a long time reader and MINI owner who was looking for something unique and (as you guessed it) fully decked out. However, what about those of us looking for a little more price-conscious MINI with fewer options? That's the idea behind MF02, and that's where we want your help. continued →

I know I hit over 40 kph on the flats, and am not sure what its top speeds are on flats or down hills. Also, the gun is inaccurate, so being slow and sitting back and sniping won't work with this TD... this TD is meant to be in their faces. Which, considering it has a low armor amount and no turret, requires that it gets put into dangerous situations far more often. I guess that's the balance - a good platform for its tier, but one in which the player has to possibly die early.
Thanks for the compliment on the good game - I'm sure I just got lucky.
The hit log, I believe, is a function of the XVM. I think it was Jason who helped me the hits to start showing, and to move it to that position. I like it now, but I really don't use that info throughout the battle.
And I have no clue what the dela is with the numbers going over each other, but I have a feeling it is due to Jimbo's reticule mod or XVM clashing with the most recent patch's numbers. It doesn't bother me since I don't use that info either. For my account, before those numbers started overlapping, nothing up there ever seemed to indicate I was incurring lag when I was actually incurring lag.
For some reason I though you had the non turreted version as well, and I did not realize the gun was that in-accurate on those, it always seemes that I am getting hit by them from a long ways away.

Goodwill Is Looking For Some Good Guide Mentors09/22/10 Robert Lorei
Radioactivity: Live Call-In (Wednesday) Listen to this entire show:
Goodwill recently launched a teen mentoring program called GoodGuides. The program helps teens who face risk factors such as school failure and juvenile delinquency by pairing them with volunteer mentors -- caring people who can offer support and guidance. The goal is to encourage these young people to finish school and make choices that will lead to successful futures.
Unfortunately, the number of teens who want and need mentors currently exceeds the number of mentors. We're joined by Ste...1 comments

"Yeah, I'm a virgin. I think it's important to wait until you find that special person and not have it be just any random girl. I'm here because of God, and He has a plan for me."–Up and coming heartthrob Austin Mahone tells Details magazine that he's not about drugs, drinking or s-e-x. Basically, he's the anti-Justin Bieber. Awww! I <3 you already, Austin.
But riddle me this, minions. One, WTF is with the face he's making in the bottom right picture? And two, do you think that 17-year-old Austin will remain true to this pledge or will he, like so many teen stars before him, go from nice to naughty as soon as his he gets old enough to branch away from his momager?

Is it not amazing how the natural predators are blamed for everything. I cannot believe that they are allowed to use poison bait, that kills everything which may contact the bait or its victims.
Cry Wolf: An Unethical Oil Story
April 12, 2012 Posted by ADMIN in Video One comment
Cry Wolf: An Unethical Oil Story is a short film exploring the policies surrounding the Alberta government's recent proposal to kill thousands of wolves in an effort to conceal the negative impacts of industrial expansion, most notably the Tar Sands, on woodland caribou populations.
This film documents the many experts, academics and journalists who are urging the government to reconsider this plan, saying it relies on a hidden industry agenda, not science.
Cry Wolf offers a glimpse into the world of scientists, journalists and internationally renowned wildlife and conservation experts who are all working to understand the implications Canada's Tar Sands have on our politics, environment and, importantly, our future.

Asked for a GF menu.... Everything is gluten free!!!! Wow!!! Montecristo sandwich was wonderful.
It is nice as a person with Celiac Disease to eat a meal without the stress of worrying about cross contamination. It is great when you find a gf dedicated business. It is even better when the food rocks! I had a salad and sampled my husband's biscuits & gravy and my son's french toast. We are visiting from out of town and plan to go back tomorrow.
Visiting from Texas and loved it nice to find a place like this. Had a cupcake it was so good
If you want gluten free, it doesn't get any safer then this. They have several options we love, particularly the Monte Cristo and truffle fries!
This was hands down some of the best GF food I've ever had. I loved the fact that the entire menu is GF. I was in the area for work for a week and went to this place every single night.
I have only had the cupcakes here. But they are so good I will drive across town for them!
After traveling in from the East Coast this place was an amazing find! The chocolate cream cheese cupcake was flavorful and chewy (in a good way) This is not what you usually find of gluten free baking. I also bought a loaf of bread and chocolate cream pie. They had a small selection today but I understand that they have special desserts on weekends. Definitely a place worthy of a drive in the Colorado Springs and surrounding area.
It's unfortunate that our service was so bad because the food was absolutely amazing. My husband refuses to return because of our waitress. She took an extra long time to come greet us and then take our order later, our food took a long time to get to us, and she never refilled our drinks because she was too busy chatting with friends a few tables down. However, the food was absolutely amazing. We even got cupcakes to go which were amazing. I would like to return again for a second shot with the service based on all the other positive reviews I saw.
My new favorite restaurant! I love this place so much. Everything I have tried has been delicious!
Thank you for the most delicious wonderful dining experience tonight! For the first time ever we walked in and all four kids could order anything they wanted...no worries. Our kids and all the adults ate like kings and queens! Fish and chips, pot pie, burger, chicken fingers...all the desserts...awesome!!!
loved this place! Yummy and no anxiety about cross contamination. An entrée is between $9-13. Yummy and fresh! In a very cute part of town. They were careful about other food sensitivities as well. Also very cute little knit shop down the way. Win, Win!
Absolute perfection! Everything on the menu is GF. Ate there multiple times while visiting Colorado Springs. The fried chicken is outstanding. Everything I tried was made from scratch and delicious. Very reasonably priced.
It's 100% gluten free so you can't go wrong. The price is on the cheaper side for being gluten free. My husband and I went on a Friday at about 7pm and they were out of chicken pot pie. :( I'm told they are really good so we will be going back again to try them out.
Oooh the relief of eating at a 100% gf restaurant! I was looking at my husbands plate having the usual, I wish I could try his, when it occurred to me...I CAN!!! Food was delish and reasonably priced. Wishing they were in my Texas town.
This sensational Creperie is a 100% gluten-free restaurant and bakery. They make their own sauces and flour blend in house. Get a breakfast crepe, omelets or French toast with no worry.
The comfort that comes from knowing EVERYTHING is gf on the menu is too great to explain. The food is excellent, but the sweets are expensive. If you have to eat gf, this is a given.
Great food and desserts. And reasonably priced for gluten free fare.
OMG, this place is amazing!!!! I have traveled the U.S. and this is one of my favs. People where friendly and food is great!! I would recommend this place to anyone!!
food is good, but way over priced. At 700% markup you'd think they could change the frier grease more than once a week. Being down the road we have been eating here a lot, but the rewards #s never work and the food so pricey, its cheaper for us to drive across town to eat. If you're a tourist, its a nice stop, and the bakery is good. But, there are far too many gf options for us locals to waste money on.
If I could I would give this restaurant 10 stars!!! It is family-friendly restaurant with great service, delicious food worth 2 thumbs up, and all there food is 100% gluten free!!! I would describe this restaurant by saying that if you could bottle happiness and perfection this restaurant would have it perfectly. Plus there is an absolutely wonderful bakery with everything from cupcakes to cookies to cheesecake!!! Coquette's is AMAZING!!! ; )
Delicious food!!! My favorite restaurant ever! They have an amazing menu and great GF dessert items. Their cupcakes are phenomenal and taste like normal cupcakes.
Great food! Great service! Best G-free restaurant I've found.
This place was off the charts. Super friendly service, many options, and the food was absolutely dynamite!! Certainly one of the best gluten free places I've ever been!
Best gluten free restaurant I have ever been to! Was with 2 friends who are not celiac who were amazed by the food here! Truly a great restaurant. A+++
Not only does Coquette's have the best gluten free menu and baked goods that I have had, but the reassurance that I won't get sick from cross contamination allows me to eat here worry free. This place is truly celiac friendly.
Best ever!!
What can I say about Coquette's that hasn't already been said? The entire menu is gluten free, and therefore Celiac friendly. The food is outstanding, and the deserts are to die for! Try the burger, fish & chips, the Monte Cristo, or the Cuban. The cupcakes are a desert all by themselves. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about the plight of Celiac folks. My only small complaint is the lack of gluten free beers beyond New Planet or Omission - the latter of which is not Celiac-safe. An extra tap would allow them to serve Fieldhouse GF brews from the down the street.
Omg, I just died and went to gf heaven! Came here for dinner last night and breakfast this morning! I highly doubt if there is anything on the menu that isn't absolutely scrumptious. Fresh and delicious options off of a one of a kind menu sure to delight your taste-buds!!! Go there now!!!
Best place ever. Fully gluten free. More options than you ever thought possible!
Fantastic!!! 😊👍
Love everything about Coquette's!
Completely gluten free restaurant!
Amazing, delicious food. It was the first time in 4 years my 9 year old I was able to tell my daughter that she could order anything she wanted off the menu! Can't wait to go back.
Always fantastic gf restaurants. Many options. Now many take home bakery options as well. Moved from manitou to downtown co springs so more convenient!
Best food that I've had in a LONG time. I really love that the entire restaurant is GF. No anxiety while eating! 😊😊😊😊😊
An amazing restaurant, all food items are gluten free, portions are large, and prices are fair! We ordered the chicken strips (which my son loved), fried calamari appetizer, fried chicken and waffles, and seared ahi tuna. Everything was delicious. Service was extremely friendly. We will be back again for sure.
Excellent gourmet food and good service! Bakery items can also be found in Whole Foods in town
Delicious! Everything is absolutely delicious! The staff is all so helpful and nice too. This place will be on our "must visit" list every time we are in town!
Not much on the lunch menu but what is on there is always great, everything is great, including the service. Has a "trendy" feel to it, but still we enjoy the food, which you would think would be more $$ but reasonable, except the baked goodies, they are more $$$.
Great food. Fish, pot pie and burgers were all very tasty. Nice family friendly place.
Awesome 100% Gluten Free Restaurant! Everything is house made and guaranteed gluten free!
Best gluten free food in a 100% gluten free environment in Colorado Springs CO
There monte cristo crepe is great! Everything they serve is gluten free.
Absolutely delicious!
The monte cristo is yummy!
awesome delcious great prices The crepes are huge and filled handsomely with delcious food. I had the Monte Cristo crepe that was just stuffed with ham cheese and strawberry jam. I also had theit iced tea which had a dpecial chocolate and orange flavoring to it. Highly recommend the luttle detour to Manitou Springs if not just to eat here.
Everything here is GF and delicious!
Stopped at Coquette for lunch. I was thrilled not to have to worry about cross-contamination. The food was good. The Boston cream pie for dessert was great, but service sucked. We kept having to ask for drink refills. We asked about buying bread to take with us, but were told we needed to talk with the owner. The host told her we wanted to talk with her, and even reminded her when we asked again, but she left without even stopping by. The restaurant wasn't busy, do there wasn't a reason the service should have been bad. I won't go back when I'm in town.
This place saved my life while on vacation to the area for a week. The first night I was there the waitress gave me a dinner roll to try....I almost cried it was so good. We ate there almost every day and not one time did I have to worry or ask them to make sure it was GF. I ate with out having panic attacks and the food...oh my gosh, the food is AMAZING! I honestly asked my husband if we could move to CO just so I could live near this place. I cant stress enough how impressed I was with the food, the staff, the cleanliness, the price, just everything was perfect! My husband and daughter are not GF but they had ZERO problems eating here every day for a week because it is that good. My daughter said, "Wow, this taste just like real food" GO HERE PEOPLE! You will thank me!
We went here years ago before I even knew I needed to be gluten-free and I thought the food was awesome then. We returned this year, while visiting the area again and the food is still great. Their crepes are awesome and so are the deserts. I haven't tried the bread/buns would consider it. I had to try the carrot cake and even my usually critical husband said it was as good as any he's ever had. The entire restaurant is gluten-free!
We went to Coquettes for Dinner on Mother's Day. Eating out has been scary since being diagnosed with Celiac. They are a dedicated gluten free restaurant. It was such a relief to know that there is no chance of cross contamination. The food was great. Our server was great! The Mint Lemonade was amazing. The fact that I could order anything I want from the bakery case... Heaven!
We stopped there after visiting Pike's Peak. Super awesome crepes and dessert. Very friendly staff.
Delicious crepes, chicken pot pie, pastries. The best gluten free choices!
Amazing food, Grouchy waitress, very expensive I was thrilled to try this place and the cave to eat of the entire menu without worry was awesome. unfortunately, our waitress was so crabby and unwilling to answer questions or even be nice about cutting a burger in half, that I'm not sure I'd go back. I actually wanted to buy some yummies to take home, but she treated us so like we were such trouble, I just wanted to get out of there. They could have probably sold me $30 in take home, but I gave up. The other frustrating thing is, they charge you an adult price for a kids size cup....and we couldn't bother her to refill their drinks. The food was 6 star, but service 1star and price 2star, not bc it was high price which I expect with GF, but bc they made accommodations SO much trouble that it made it feel very expensive.
Fantastic food! Always the highest quality; delicious! Sometime the service leaves a little to be desired; however, they are quick to rectify any deficiency and are always friendly about it!
Good food and the entire restaurant is GF. Cupcakes are awesome.
Amazing food. I cook gluten free for the health of my family. I took someone special out to this restaurant and was so glad I did. Even though I eat gluten I would have not known EVERYTHING was gluten free. It tasted amazing. Great date place!
Everything in the restaurant is gluten free. Only gluten in the restaurant is a beer. Amazing food!
Excellent food!! Totally gluten free, they make their own flour upstairs. I had the eggs and bacon with white bread and homefries and it was delicious. Got a vanilla cupcake with lavender cream frosting, too :) The iced tea with hints of chocolate and orange was amazing!
Love the french toast ( and everything else)
Had the chicken mushroom soup and roll--delightful took 3 cupcakes home, what a treat! 100% GF seriously!? Husband and daughter both had crepes, both very happy!
WOW!!! 100%gluten free. I'm not gluten free and have family members that for medical conditions have to eat gluten free. We're from out of state but when we come back, we'll be coming here! Of the eight in our party, everyone was blown away.
Excellent food. I was in CO for a meeting and stumbled upon this fabulous restaurant. Everything is gluten free.
Our FAVORITE GF place! We love their food...everything is insanely tasty! You won't be disappointed!
I can eat everything on the men and it is all delicious!
This place is 100 percent gluten free! Out its incredible food and completely worry free!! even my friends on non restrictEd diets love it! Try it you won't be disappointed!!!!!
Love their food, they serve breakfast lunch and dinner. Sweet and savory crepes. So good.
Hubby took me there for Valentine's Day...the best food either of us have eaten in a long time, hands down!!! It was also great to have the peace of mind that it's a gluten free kitchen, so we didn't have to worry about contamination.
I eat here often and love everything I've tried! They have amazing burgers on their homemade buns! Very GF safe!
Amazing! Finally a place where I didn't have to worry about the menu. I hope we can start something like this closer to home. Everything was delicious! Yum yum!
Really tasty. Solidly GF.

5.6million tune in to see Tom Daley make a Splash!
Posted: January 07, 2013|
PLYMOUTH diver Tom Daley has made a big Splash! in his first TV presenting role.
The new celebrity talent show on ITV on Saturday, attracted an average of 5.6million viewers – a quarter of the audience share.
Tom – who took bronze in dramatic style at last year's London Olympic games – plays tutor to a handful of celebs who have dared to tread a very different kind of board to ones they are used to.
At its peak, 6.3 million viewers tuned in to see comedian Omid Djalili and Benidorm star Jake Canuso dive into the next round of the show, which is filmed live from Luton, with the training sequences filmed at Plymouth's Life Centre.
Djalili topped the leaderboard with a daring 10-metre "swan dive", while Canuso made it through after winning a head-to-head "splash off" against TV presenter Jenni Falconer.
The social networking site Twitter, famed for its poisonous jibes, was quick to shout down the show, but Radio Five Live presenter Richard Bacon said: "We've had our sarcastic fun. But let's admit in it's own mysterious way, it's strangely enjoyable. If not utterly compelling."
The show's judging panel featured Team GB's diving coach Andy Banks, comedienne Jo Brand and former Olympic diving medallist Leon Taylor.
Having failed to impress the judges, Jenni Falconer joined Sugababes singer Jade Ewen and comedy actress Helen Lederer in leaving the series.
Ten more celebrities – including model Caprice, Olympic boxer Anthony Ogogo, Sky presenter Charlotte Jackson and ski jumper Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards – will compete over the next two weeks.
Team GB and Plymouth Diving coach Andy Banks said the feedback from ITV bosses was that they were "over the moon" with the ratings.
He said: "I thought it went all right, given that Splash! is something entirely new for a primetime TV slot.

Go ahead and toss your money down the toilet at one of the state's cheap Sin City knockoffs. Just don't come crying to us when you've blown the Wisconsin Dells family-vacation fund in one debauched weekend because you were too foolish to heed the cardinal rule of casinos: In the end, the house always wins. The poker tables at Canterbury are different--sorta. Though the club takes its cut (up to four bucks per hand), you're not playing against the house; you're facing off against the seven or eight fellow card fiends at your table. Translation: You can actually win. Of course, that makes it a game of skill, and because the house gets paid, the margin of error is slim. That said, a session of poker is a far more satisfying way to blow dough than dumping $200 down a one-armed bandit calibrated to ensure that you walk out with less than what you had when you came in. Win some. Lose some. Feel the adrenaline rush of landing a flush on the last card (and the despair of folding what would have turned into a full house). And if you get burned out on cards, take advantage of Canterbury's other bona fide game of skill and throw some bucks at the ponies in the simulcast area--or, during the warmer months when live racing is featured, in the great outdoors.

Neil Armstrong, the first man on the Moon, has died today at the age of 81 due to complications following heart surgery earlier this month.
Uttering the immortal words "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.", Neil Armstrong and his crew became heroes to more than just a nation but to the world.
Armstrong's self-made accomplishments were many, even before reaching the Moon. He had served as a Navy pilot having paid for flight lessons with a clerk's job and fought during the Korean War, earned his degree in aeronautical engineering with top marks (and went on after his astronaut days to earn a Masters degree in the same field), became a test pilot, and had even directed a musical for his fraternity. He also holds honorary doctorates from a number of institutions.
Cool under pressure, he demonstrated his knack for doing his best in any situation during a dramatic episode during the Gemini 8 mission when he saved the capsule from an out-of-control spin. Armstrong and his partner, David Scott, guided the Gemini safely back to Earth having survived the ordeal.
After his astronaut days, Armstrong would go on to become a professor at the University of Cincinnati in Ohio teaching for eight years up until 1979. Afterwards, he would be a spokesperson for several companies and would heed the call of his nation when they needed him again at NASA to help investigate the Challenger disaster in 1986.
He quietly took himself away from the public spectacle in the last few years, but the impact of his life and that of his contributions to science won't be forgotten. He once said ""As a boy, because I was born and raised in Ohio, about 60 miles north of Dayton, the legends of the Wrights have been in my memories as long as I can remember."
I've little doubt that many others will continue to go on in being inspired by his life, and those of his fellow astronauts, in much the same way. Thank you, and good journey, Mr. Armstrong.

American Idol
Will Julianne Hough be a Virgin Bride When She Marries Ryan Seacrest? — "I Want to Be With That Special Person"
From singers like Britney Spears (once upon a time) and American Idol's own Jordin Sparks to athletes like Tim Tebow and the now-notorious Manti Te'o, some stars are not ashamed to make public statements proclaiming their virginity. As Huffington Post pointed out in December, it used to be a Disney-esque status symbol, complete with purity rings.
Some stars, like Britney and Miley Cyrus, have potentially used their virgin status to get away with being more sexual in their videos and on magazine covers. The thing that no one considered was that time marches on and people change, along with their outlooks on life.
As HuffPo points out, "Advertisers and parents alike rejoiced at the rings, but they didn't stay on for long. We can't say we're too surprised — it's easy to reject the notions of premarital sex when you're 13, but much harder when you're 18 and in a relationship."
The perfect example of this is Jordin Sparks, who hinted at her change of heart (and possibly virginity status) on The Today Show:
"When I was 13 my mom spoke to me about purity and waiting for marriage and different things like that. And, you know, at the time I was like, 'Sure that's great,' but I can't say what's gonna happen a couple of months from now. People grow."
Perhaps Jordin's boyfriend, Jason Derulo, caused this change of heart, but who knows? She may have simply decided she was ready...or not. No one knows for sure but the former American Idol winner, herself.
Another star who has talked openly about her desire to hold on to her "V Card" is Julianne Hough. She once told CosmoGIRL! she wants to wait until marriage:
"I want to be with that special person. I think [the choice] to have sex before marriage is an individual one, but if you're just with one person, it's only for one good reason, and [waiting to have sex] will strengthen that relationship. I'm not trying to preach consequences here, but I think when you say no, down the line it will be a better decision."
So is Jullianne Hough still a virgin? We can't say for certain, but it doesn't sound like her celebu-boyfriend, Ryan Seacrest, cares if she is or not. He recently gushed on Chelsea Lately, "She's the best part of every day." Awwww!
What do you think about stars discussing their virginity status with the media?

Applications Engineer» search for more Jobs
An applications engineer is an advocate for a company whose job is to promote, showcase and sell products, as well as be involved in the installation and maintenance of these products on client systems. Applications engineers are not just programmers, but are required to interface with customers and showcase the power of computing. Therefore, there is a need for those in this position to have both technical and interpersonal skills. An applications engineer should be able to clearly communicate their technical expertise through product demonstrations and sales presentations.
The application engineering environment is fast-paced and demanding, as there is much competition between organisations for clients. An engineer in this field works on multiple projects at once, with tight schedules.
There are positions available as an applications engineer at entry-level, or with minimal industry experience. More senior positions involve managerial-type duties such as interacting with and managing a team of sales staff, managing materials and accounts, and working on design and issues documents and require more field experience and study.

The case arose when a French spy in the German embassy discovered a handwritten bordereau [schedule], received by Major Maximilien von Schwartzkoppen, German military attaché in Paris, which offered to sell French military secrets. The French army, which, although considerably democratized in the late 19th cent., remained a stronghold of monarchists and Catholics and permeated by anti-Semitism, attempted to ferret out the traitor. Suspicion fell on Dreyfus, a wealthy Alsatian Jew, while the press raised accusations of Jewish treason. He was tried in camera by a French court-martial, convicted, and sentenced to degradation and deportation for life. He was sent to Devils Island, off the coast of French Guiana, for solitary confinement. Dreyfus protested his innocence and swore his loyalty to France, but public opinion generally applauded the conviction, and interest in the case lapsed.
The matter flared up again in 1896 and soon divided Frenchmen into two irreconcilable factions. In 1896 Col. Georges Picquart, chief of the intelligence section, discovered evidence indicating Major Ferdinand Walsin Esterhazy, who was deep in debt, as the real author of the bordereau. Picquart was silenced by army authorities, but in 1897 Dreyfus's brother, Mathieu, made the same discovery and increased pressure to reopen the case. Esterhazy was tried (Jan., 1898) by a court-martial and acquitted in a matter of minutes.
Émile Zola, a leading supporter of Dreyfus, promptly published an open letter (J'accuse) to the president of the French republic, Félix Faure, accusing the judges of having obeyed orders from the war office in their acquittal of Esterhazy. Zola was tried for libel and sentenced to jail, but he escaped to England. By this time the case had become a major political issue and was fully exploited by royalist, militarist, and nationalist elements on the one hand and by republican, socialist, and anticlerical elements on the other.
The violent partisanship dominated French life for a decade. Among the anti-Dreyfusards were the anti-Semite Édouard Drumont; Paul Déroulède, who founded a patriotic league; and Maurice Barrès. The pro-Dreyfus faction, which steadily gained strength, came to include Georges Clemenceau, in whose paper Zola's letter appeared, Jean Jaurès, René Waldeck-Rousseau, Anatole France, Charles Péguy, and Joseph Reinach. They were, in part, less personally concerned with Dreyfus, who remained in solitary confinement on Devils Island, than with discrediting the rightist government.
Later in 1898 it was discovered that much of the evidence against Dreyfus had been forged by Colonel Henry of army intelligence. Henry committed suicide (Aug., 1898), and Esterhazy fled to England. At this point revision of Dreyfus's sentence had become imperative. The case was referred to an appeals court in September and after Waldeck-Rousseau became premier in 1899, the court of appeals ordered a new court-martial. There was worldwide indignation when the military court, unable to admit error, found Dreyfus guilty with extenuating circumstances and sentenced him to 10 years in prison.
Nonetheless, a pardon was issued by President Émile Loubet, and in 1906 the supreme court of appeals exonerated Dreyfus, who was reinstated as a major and decorated with the Legion of Honor. Subsequently promoted, Dreyfus served in World War I as a colonel in the artillery. In 1930 his innocence was reaffirmed by the publication of Schwartzkoppen's papers. The immediate result of the Dreyfus Affair was to unite and bring to power the French political left wing. Widespread antimilitarism and anticlericalism also ensued; army influence declined, and in 1905 church and state were separated in France and legal equality among Catholics, Protestants, and Jews was established. At his death in 1935, Dreyfus was hailed as a French hero and a martyr for freedom.
See J. Reinach, Histoire de l'affaire Dreyfus (7 vol., 1901-11); A. Dreyfus and P. Dreyfus, The Dreyfus Case (tr. 1937); G. R. Whyte, The Dreyfus Affair: A Chronological History (2008); studies by G. Chapman (1955 and 1972), D. W. Johnson (1966), L. L. Snyder (1972), D. L. Lewis (1973), J.-D. Bredin (tr. 1986), N. L. Kleeblatt (1987), M. Burns (1991), and L. Begley (2009).
Two years later, in 1896, the real culprit was brought to light and identified: a French Army major named Ferdinand Walsin Esterhazy. However, French high-level military officials dismissed or ignored this new evidence which exonerated Alfred Dreyfus. Thus, in January 1898, military judges unanimously acquitted Esterhazy on the second day of his trial. Worse, French military counter-intelligence officers fabricated false documents designed to secure Dreyfus' conviction as a spy for Germany. They were all eventually exposed, in large part due to a resounding public intervention by writer Emile Zola in January 1898. The case had to be re-opened, and Dreyfus was brought back from Guiana in 1899 to be tried again. The intense political and judicial scandal that ensued divided French society between those who supported Dreyfus (the Dreyfusards) and those who condemned him (the anti-Dreyfusards).
Eventually, all the accusations against Alfred Dreyfus were demonstrated to be baseless. Dreyfus was exonerated and reinstated as a major in the French Army in 1906. He later served during the whole of World War I, ending his service with the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel.
Antisemitism in France during the latter part of the 19th century was openly displayed in print and in public speeches by politicians and journalists belonging to the far right of the political spectrum. After the formal inception of the French Third Republic in 1871, in the 1880s nationalist politicians such as Georges Boulanger, Edouard Drumont (founder of the Antisemitic League of France) and Paul Déroulède (founder of Ligue des Patriotes) sought to capitalize on the new fervor for a unified Catholic France. Since 1892, the anti-Semitic publication "La Libre Parole" had published highly defamatory contributions called "Les Juifs dans l'Armée" or "Jews in the Army". Consequently and in response, Jewish officers in the French Army such as Andre Cremieu-Foa and Armand Mayer had reacted by challenging to a duel the authors of these defamations. Captain Mayer lost his life in a duel against Marquis de Mores in June 1892, thus creating a major scandal anticipating that of the Dreyfus Affair. War Minister Freycinet had intervened in the Chambre des Députés (the French lower house) in these terms: "Gentlemen, in the Army, we do not recognize Jews, Protestants or Catholics, we only recognize French officers." However French Jews, in general, were later described by the historian George L. Mosse as being often perceived as a "nation within a nation".
Nonetheless the situation of the Jewish community in France, in the 1890s, was better than that of Jews in certain other countries of continental Europe, such as Germany and worst of all in Czarist Russia. All French Jews had been fully integrated into the nation by law since the French Revolution of 1789 and Napoleon's First Empire. As a result they generally held higher positions in the government and the military than in most other European countries. Later on in France, the political changes resulting from the Dreyfus Affair brought about the 1905 Law on the Separation of Church and State. It put an end to the favored status of the Catholic Church dating from Emperor Napoleon I's Concordat with the Vatican. This placed French Protestants and French Jews on the same level as Roman Catholics, with regards to the Law and to public financing (or lack thereof) of places of worship.
Captain Alfred Dreyfus, a graduate of both École polytechnique and the École Supérieure de Guerre, was a promising young artillery officer. His high exit rankings from these elite institutions had led to a training position on the French Army's General Staff in January 1893. Alfred Dreyfus' family background was solidly upper middle class and rested on a successful family-owned textile manufacture in Mulhouse, a city in Alsace that is close to the German and Swiss borders. After the French defeat in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/1871 and the annexation of Alsace by the German Empire, part of the Dreyfus family had chosen to retain its French nationality and moved permanently to Paris. Its younger members, including 12-year-old Alfred Dreyfus jr. and his brother Mathieu Dreyfus, grew up there.
It has long been demonstrated, in fact since 1896 by Lt Col Georges Picquart, that the torn up bordereau used to incriminate Alfred Dreyfus had in reality been handwritten and delivered to the German Embassy by someone else: a French infantry officer of Hungarian descent, Major Ferdinand Walsin Esterhazy. At the top of the list on the bordereau was a promise to deliver to the German Military Attaché technical information concerning the oleo-pneumatic recoil mechanism of a new French howitzer (the 120 mm Baquet). Esterhazy had either hoped to extract money from the German Attaché or had, as proposed by Jean Doise (1984), deliberately planted a deception into German hands to throw them off the Canon de 75 modèle 1897 field gun project. As if by coincidence, the new French 75 prototype and its highly advanced oleo-pneumatic recoil mechanism were in secret progress at that very same time. Conversely, the 120mm Baquet had already been earmarked for early termination . The official "Manuel d'Artillerie Lourde" published in 1923 by Colonel Alvin and Major Andre states the following about the 120mm Baquet : "The functioning of the recoil mechanism is not satisfactory. It lacks regularity, the seals are not leak proof and the recoil can vary with the nature of the ground." (Alvin and Andre, 1923, page 338). Hence the Mle 1890 120mm Baquet, which was used to falsely incriminate Dreyfus in the "bordereau" , must have been well known as a "lemon" at the level of the Director of French Artillery : general Deloye. Altogether, Jean Doise's proposed explanations involving artillery development do fit with the facts. For instance, Esterhazy, although unmistakably identified by Lt Col Picquart as the author of the "bordereau", was surprisingly acquitted by French military Justice in January 1898 and let go to retire in England with a pension. Moreover, lieutenant Walsin-Esterhazy had served in 1881 and 1882 as a German translator on the staff of the "Section de Statistique", at the same time and in the same office than Major Joseph Hubert Henry, that same officer later to be caught forging evidence against Dreyfus. These career overlaps are well documented and took place during the early part of Esterhazy's career, long before the Dreyfus Affair. The point is that the two officers had been working in the same French military counter espionage group twelve years before the Dreyfus Affair and thus knew each other quite well.
However, the theory that Esterhazy was not exactly what he appears to be—a man who sold military secrets to the Germans to cover his many debts and as revenge against France for denying him the promotion and appointments he wanted—has several problems. If Esterhazy was actually a double-agent working for Sandherr at the time that the bordereau was written, Sandherr's reaction to the discovery of the bordereau makes no sense. This, indeed, would be true if the bordereau handed over by Esterhazy to the German attaché had not been a decoy designed to divert his attention onto a howitzer that had already been eliminated from large scale production: the Model 1890 120mm Baquet. As a matter of public record, only 84 of the 120mm Baquet howitzers had been manufactured (Doise, 1994) after which their production had been halted in 1893 because of basic flaws in their oleo-pneumatic recoil systems. Another telling fact is that, in 1914-18, the few 120mm Baquet howitzers that were still in existence had been dropped out of the active French artillery inventory and handed over to the Serbian Army. An important point to be examined as well is that, beginning with the Section de Statistique, up through the Ministry of War and to the French President himself, nobody suggested at any time prior to the Dreyfus trial that the bordereau might be the work of a double agent. However, how could the Army's High Command destroy Esterhazy's credibility with the German attaché if the disinformation planted in the bordereau had been designed to divert German attention away from the French 75? The completed French 75mm field gun was eventually adopted three years later in 1897 and mass produced prior to WW1 (4,500 guns). Nevertheless, a more conventional explanation is reasonable if one prefers to exclude Doise's thesis involving the French 75. In that case Esterhazy's obvious sheltering from being convicted in January 1898 must be understood not so much as the protection of a double agent rather than the need to justify the original sentencing pronounced against Dreyfus in December 1894.
These recent exposures by professional French Army historians further confirm what had already been brought to light since 1896 by Lt Col Georges Picquart : the criminal character of the machinations devised by Lt Col Sandherr and his small group (notably Major Hubert-Joseph Henry, Captain Lauth and archivist Gribelin) at the "Section de Statistique". Because these counter-intelligence officers operated within a loosely supervised bureaucracy distinct from the regular military intelligence section (the 2ème bureau ) at the French War Ministry, they drifted into forging evidence against Dreyfus (the "faux Henry") and perverting the course of justice (Bredin, 1986 and general Andre Bach, 2004). This happened because Lt Col Sandherr had been encouraged over the years to report directly and secretly to the office of the politically appointed War Minister himself (General Auguste Mercier who occupied this key position until 1896). It is now further shown (Bach, 2004) that General Auguste Mercier was the responsible party in initiating this chain of events, and later in pressing for the cover-up of the Dreyfus miscarriage of justice. That he had been inspired at the very beginning by general Deloye, who directed French Artillery and supervised the French 75's secret development, is a plausible but unprovable speculation.
Alfred Dreyfus was tried in 1894 on charges of espionage and found guilty. He was sentenced to life in prison on Devil's Island in French Guiana where he had to endure debilitating solitary confinement in a small hut for nearly five years. Before his deportation to Guiana he had to undergo a formal degradation ceremony in the École Militaire in Paris where he was publicly cashiered: his rank marks and buttons were ripped off his uniform and his sabre was broken. Then, in June 1899, the case was reopened following the uncovering of exonerating evidence which is reviewed earlier in this note and due to the fact that Dreyfus had been denied due process during the initial court-martial. France's Court of Cassation quashed his conviction and ordered a new court-martial. Despite the new evidence presented at his second military trial, Dreyfus was re-convicted in September and sentenced to 10 years in prison. He was subsequently pardoned by President Émile Loubet and freed, but would not be formally exonerated until July 12, 1906, when the Court of Cassation annulled his second conviction.
He was thereafter formally reinstated as a major in the army in July 1906 and made a Knight of the Légion d'Honneur. However, he decided, of his own accord, to retire in July 1907. Seven years passed until Dreyfus was recalled to active duty in August 1914, at the age of 55. He served mostly behind the lines of the Western Front as a Lieutenant-Colonel of Artillery, but also performed front line duties in 1917, notably at Verdun and on the Chemin des Dames. Finally, Alfred Dreyfus was raised to the rank of Officer of the Légion d'Honneur in July 1919. This elevation constituted official recognition that he had served his country in time of war with distinction and well beyond the normal retirement age. However, his personal life and that of his family, not to speak of his military career, had been deeply damaged by the baseless accusations made against him since 1894.
The Dreyfus affair became one of the gravest crises to rock the French Third Republic. "The Affair" deeply divided the country into Dreyfusards (supporters of Dreyfus) and anti-Dreyfusards. Generally speaking, royalists and conservatives (the "right wing") were anti-Dreyfusards, while Dreyfusards were socialists, republicans and anticlericalists.
On the other hand, and contrary to common belief, the French Army at the end of the 19th century was not an anti-Semitic institution. Dreyfus's Jewish background was well-known, yet he had been admitted to the most selective military schools in the country and had been assigned to a sensitive position in the General Staff. During that same period, there were over 250 career officers professing the Jewish faith (Birnbaum, 1998) in the French Army, including many colonels and at least one general officer, General Samuel Naquet-Laroque (1843–1921), who occupied a high position in the state armament industries. That same period also saw the rise of Lt Colonel Mardochee-Georges Valabregue (1854–1934), an artilleryman from the École Polytechnique and an observant Jew. He became Commander in Chief of the École Supérieure de Guerre in 1905 and a full general during World War 1. Another high ranking French officer of Jewish descent was General Jules Mordacq (1868-1943). He was a captain at the time of the Dreyfus Affair but his own career continued to progress normally. He became a highly decorated general and divisional commander in the field during WW1. General Mordacq was then chosen by Prime Minister Clemenceau, in early 1918, to become his principal military liaison with the High Command. The General remained in this important cabinet position with Clemenceau until the end of the war, in November 1918. He also assisted Clemenceau during the Paris Peace Conference in 1919. The writer Émile Zola can be credited with having exposed the affair to the general public in a famously incendiary open letter to President Félix Faure to which the French journalist and politician Georges Clemenceau had affixed the headline "J'accuse!" (I accuse!); it was published January 13, 1898 in the maiden issue of the newspaper L'Aurore (The Dawn). It had the effect of a bomb — in the words of historian Barbara Tuchman, "It was one of the great commotions of history." Émile Zola's intent was to force his own prosecution for libel so that the emerging facts of the Dreyfus case could be thoroughly aired. In this he succeeded. He was convicted, appealed, was retried, and, before hearing the result, fled to England on the advice of his counsel and friends, returning to Paris in June 1899 when he heard that Dreyfus's trial was to be reviewed.
Zola's worldwide fame and respected reputation brought international attention to what he considered Dreyfus's unjust treatment. However, most of the work of exposing the errors in Dreyfus's conviction was done by four people: Dreyfus's brother Mathieu, who fought a lonely campaign for several years; Jewish journalist and anarchist Bernard Lazare, who first used the word J'accuse in L'Eclair, on 15 September 1896, a paper which he rewrote under the title The Dreyfus Affair – A Miscarriage of Justice, published in Belgium in November 1896; then Lt.Colonel Marie-Georges Picquart, a senior infantry officer who had replaced Lt. Colonel Sandherr, now deceased, at the helm of French Military Counter-intelligence; and the Alsatian vice-president of the French Senate, Auguste Scheurer-Kestner. They all worked resolutely to make the case for a revision of Dreyfus's conviction by the French military justice system. Picquart himself, who had demonstrated that the real author of the "bordereau" was Major Esterhazy, was reassigned to a post in the south of Tunisia in December 1896. This was not necessarily an inappropriate assignment, since Picquart had originally been transferred from a North African Tirailleur regiment to lead military counter intelligence in Paris. The intention now, however, was to get Picquart away from Paris in order to silence him. It was, in fact, a deliberate obstruction of justice by highly placed members of the French military leadership.
The affair saw the emergence of the "intellectuals" — academics and others with high intellectual achievements who took positions on grounds of higher principle — such as Zola, the novelists Octave Mirbeau and Anatole France, the mathematicians Henri Poincaré and Jacques Hadamard, and the librarian of the École Normale Supérieure, Lucien Herr. Constantin Mille, a Romanian Socialist writer and émigré in Paris, identified the anti-Dreyfusard camp with a "militarist dictatorship".
In 1906 the Chamber of Deputies overwhelmingly approved measures to rehabilitate and promote Dreyfus and Picquart in the Army. (Picquart became a general before WW1 and even held the position of Minister of War in a later Clemenceau government in 1906.) War Minister Général de Galliffet, also in 1906, formally put an end to the Dreyfus Affair during an intervention in the Chamber of Deputies which ended with the famous phrase: "L'incident est clos " which translates as "The incident is closed ". However, anti-Dreyfusards in the civilian realm never really ceased to denounce the Dreyfus affair to further their own political ends.
The factions in the Dreyfus affair remained in place for decades afterwards. The far right remained a potent force, as did the moderate liberals. The liberal victory played an important role in pushing the far right to the fringes of French politics. It also prompted legislation such as a 1905 law separating church and state. The coalition of partisan anti-Dreyfusards remained together, but turned to other causes. Groups such as Maurras' Action Française, formed during the affair, endured for decades. The right-wing Vichy Regime was composed to some extent of old anti-Dreyfusards and their descendants. The Vichy Regime would later close its eyes to the arrest of Dreyfus's granddaughter, Madeleine, by the Gestapo and to her deportation and death at Nazi extermination camp Auschwitz, in January 1944.
Lucie Dreyfus, the loyal wife of Alfred, wrote many letters of comfort to him during his exile. She had also written the Vatican for mercy, but her letter was never answered. It was she who appealed to Émile Zola for help. Lucie survived the Holocaust by changing her identity and hiding in Southern France at a Catholic convent under the name of Mme Duteil. She died in Paris at age 76, on December 14, 1945.
In 1985, President François Mitterrand commissioned a statue of Dreyfus by sculptor Louis Mitelberg to be installed at the École Militaire, but the Minister of Defense refused to display it although Alfred Dreyfus had been rehabilitated into the Army and fully exonerated in 1906
The Hungarian-Jewish journalist Theodor Herzl had been assigned to report on the trial and its aftermath. Soon afterward, Herzl wrote The Jewish State (1896) and founded the World Zionist Organization, which called for the creation of a Jewish State in Palestine. The anti-semitism and injustice revealed in France by the conviction of Alfred Dreyfus had a radicalizing effect on Herzl, demonstrating to him that Jews, despite the Enlightenment and Jewish assimilation, could never hope for fair treatment in European society. Historically, it is true that the Dreyfus injustice was not the initial motivation for Herzl's actions. However it did go a long way to keep motivating him further into promoting Zionism. His persistent activism during his lifetime eventually led to the creation of a Jewish state long after his death.
In the Middle East, the Muslim Arab press was sympathetic to the falsely accused Captain Dreyfus, and criticized the persecution of Jews in France.
Not all Jews saw the Dreyfus Affair as evidence of anti-semitism in France, however. It was also viewed as the opposite. The Jewish philosopher Emmanuel Lévinas often cited the words of his father: "A country that tears itself apart to defend the honor of a small Jewish captain is somewhere worth going.
A British-made television film of 1991, Prisoner of Honor, directed by Ken Russell, focuses on the efforts of Colonel Picquart to have the sentence of Alfred Dreyfus overturned. (Colonel Picquart was played by American actor Richard Dreyfuss, who says he is a descendant of Alfred Dreyfus).
