- quality as expectedbillnDined on 9/20/2014Very reliable for bringing out-of-towners to. SF ambiance; reliably good seafood.Special Features:
- AwfulAFoodie4UDined on 9/19/2014Loud and terrible food. Typical bad chain restaurant. Almost inedible.
- Pleasant surpriseBqh1962VIPDined on 9/19/2014Given its location in the heart of the Wharf area, this could be just another tourist churn and burn restaurant. On the contrary, the food was very well prepared, portions were generous and the service was excellent. Our waiter, Justin, was not only prompt and attentive as he should be, but made us all comfortable with his humor and personality. Extensive menu, good cocktails and reasonable, yet deep wine list. We would go back without hesitation.Special Features:
- Great lunchLiz28Dined on 9/19/2014Excellent. Good view, nice linens, service, food & wine all fineSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great scenic view restaurantFrogprinceDined on 9/18/2014Great scenic view restaurant ,good food and tourist prices. Small portions makes it not a good value. Service was just ok.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- McCormick & KuletoNightout208Dined on 9/14/2014Excellent location and service. Food was good. If you're looking for a fancy spot with a great view, in a great neighborhood, then this would be one of the places to go. The Salmon and the Beef Medallions were definitely the better of our four dishes.Special Features:
- ReniDined on 9/13/2014It was one of the worst experiences my husband and I, as well as a friend, whom we invited, have had in our considerable experience in dining out. Our "waiter" brought (in order of occurrence} drinks not ordered by us (twice) wrong appetizers as well as entrees ! Finally other waiters after an hours wait on our part, brought us our meals. We are all San Francisco residents and would never go back!Special Features:
- Birthday BoySusanfromTiburonDined on 9/12/2014We have been to the restaurant off and on for several years. This time we went for our son's 10 year old birthday. We got a great booth, he loved the food, and the drinks were awesome. My daughter and I shared some wonderful King Crab Legs and the mussels with chorizo were delicious...Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- foodie1Dined on 9/12/2014The food and service were exceptional. Love this restaurant!!Special Features:
- BlademanDined on 9/12/2014Had a wonderful meal on the SF waterfront @ Fisherman's Wharf. Incredible views at dusk. We had the Lobster bisque soup which had lots of lobster meat in it and was delicious but needed a splash of something (sherry) to make it perfect. The dungeness crab cake appetizer was outstanding. For our entrees, we had the pan seared sea scallops and the lime ginger pacific snapper. Both were excellent. Service was very efficient but not overly friendly.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Use to be good but not nowLinkDined on 9/7/2014Was a place I use to go to celebrate birthdays and to recommend to tourists, but not anymore. Portions were small (compared to previous visits)especially the calamari, I even had to ask if that was a half portion. Vegetable sides on the grilled fish orders were overdone and wilted. I order "Chef Romero's Featured items" ....Bacon Crusted Sturgeon....received the grilled sturgeon instead and returned that, when I received my correct order, it looked as if it was thrown together.....very bland, nothing special. The only thing that was good was the free dessert for the birthday.
- Beautiful view, spotty serviceCarpeDiemVIPDined on 9/6/2014Great place to take out of town guests for a fantastic view and decent food, comfortable seating, though it is quite expensive. The stuffed salmon was fantastic, good New England chowder, so-so scallops, sourdough bread a bit rubbery. Repeated problems (big delays) with our alcoholic beverage orders, apparently because they were to come from the backed-up bar. But I would return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Beautiful placeHea1thyEaterDined on 9/5/2014Me and my boyfriend were looking for a restaurant with beautiful decor, and came across McCormick and kuleto. We had an amazing experience there. The food was delicious - especially the seared scallops with spinach and mashed potatoes. Meredith- the server- did a great job, she was very accommodating and attentive. And the views from out table were gorgeous!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointingKennyDined on 9/3/2014Ordered salmon. Arrived over 45 minutes later, cooked dry. Returned to kitchen. Came back over 15minutes later with sauce (supposed to be on the side). Told that entree would be 'comped'...but then told it was not allowed. Finally, 'comped' by manager. Ate only a little bit of dinner...lost appetite.Special Features:
- FrancisDined on 9/1/2014Delicious food, good views , excellent wine selectionSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I am not revisiting this restaurantTerribleDiningExperienceDined on 8/31/2014This restaurant was a huge mistake. Server took our drinks and appetizer order within 5 minutes. Drinks arrived within reasonable amount of time, however the appetizer took a while. We ordered our main course (Shrimp scampi and grilled Snapper) while enjoying our appetizer. 30 minutes later server comes back to tell us they were out of Snapper. We did not want to wait too long for food, so we replaced it with fish & chips. Our dinner entrees finally arrived an hour later (server nowhere to be seen).When we checked the final bill, we were charged for drinks we did not order. It was a terrible experience and we were left alone for most of the 2 hours it took them to serve our food. Never visiting this restaurant again.Special Features:
- DisappointedCandiKDined on 8/31/2014I have eaten there before and it was great...that is why we made reservations to come back. The service was terrible, very slow due to being short staffed.on a holiday weekend in San Francisco they should have been fully staffed. Food service was slow and our food was cold. I was very disappointed this time.Special Features:
- Expected Morejst7Dined on 8/30/2014Tuna Tartare preparation was odd / not very good - ordering a filet at a seafood restaurant wasn't a good call, as it came back wayyy overcooked, then had to wait 15 minutes for the re-fire. Drinks / service / views were great though.Special Features:

- Great view, average foodfoodloverDined on 8/30/2014The view from McCormick & Kuleto's Seafood Restaurant is wonderful. The food however was disappointing. We have gone there many times over the years, but will be looking for a new seafood spot on our next trip to San FranciscoSpecial Features:
- Great View of Bay and MarinMVdinerDined on 8/28/2014Been here a number of times. The view across the bay to Marin all the way around to Berkeley is great. Prices for most entrees are ~$18 to $30+ range. Petrale sole was OK. I would try other dishes before reordering it. Fish and chips was actually pretty good.Special Features:
- Simply excellentrfreddyDined on 8/24/2014I took my wife for her birthday dinner here and we were very impressed with the view from our table, the food was amazing and the service was impeccable. Definitely a good choice if your want to have a lovely time.Special Features:

- fantastic dining experienceDawnaVIPDined on 8/23/2014In every way, this evening was magical for our celebration with our parents. Our server, Kristen, was very attentive, fun and kind; the food was superb with each course. Special menus were even printed to recognize or special occasion. Many thanks for our forever memory!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Love this placeSusieQDined on 8/20/2014Even though I'm a local, it's a pleasure to come to tourist spot Ghirardelli Square for a meal here. Happy hour is the best, however, if coming to this pricey restaurant for the first time. Join their Landry's club for $25 and get $25 off your next visit. Earn points for future discounts.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- worth the waitamyb19Dined on 8/16/2014We had reservations but still waited 20 min. But well worth it! Liked the view, food, serving size, and the atmosphere ....except those who have there young children with them and avoid attempting to look nice. Overall was still romantic and we enjoyed it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Relaxing amid the tourist throng!SusanlamoDined on 8/16/2014My goodness! From the open table reservation option (always easy!) to the greeter, to our wonderful server, Henry, to the fabulous view and even more fabulous food, this restaurant cannot be beat! The prices were about the same as most places of this caliber, but the location right in Ghiradelli Square in San Francisco was convenient. Make a reservation! The place is huge, and for our last evening in SF, they escorted us to a very secluded-seeming table, even though the place was crowded, the placement of the tables made it seem very private. I highly recommend this place!Special Features:
- Excellent Meal and Incredible ViewfoodmasterDined on 8/16/2014We loved the quality of food, service, location and view. You cannot go wrong with McCormick & Kuleto's. I would suggest making reservations to insure a table and the best view.Special Features:
- Excellent Service, Great FoodPedalMoreDined on 8/16/2014We visited as a group of five in the family with ages mostly in the teens. View of SF Bay was amazing as we were seated right by the windows. Michael was our waiter and made the experience a great and memorable one. Menu includes a lot of options and I have never been disappointed with the food quality coming from other McCormick's I have visited and McCormick and Kuleto was no exception. Delivery of food was timely, Michael was very knowledgeable about all things on the menu and even gave us a recommendation for the dessert we had planned nearby at Ghiradelli. Definitely a great experience dining in San Francisco.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Family Birthdaypamk1Dined on 8/16/2014Restaurant was able to accommodate a family birthday dinner. They split the check to three credit cards. Food was presented nicely and the server was very attentive. Would definitely return if in the area.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food, great ambianceBarneyDined on 8/15/2014The good was good and fresh, you can't beat the ambiance and the view! Service was also superb!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not the sameKiwiKevDined on 8/14/2014I have been to this restaurant several times over the and 10 years and always remembered it for the outstanding food. I can no longer say it is memorable. The Calamari appetizer used to be outstanding, crisp and plentiful and now it is soggy small mess with chilies thrown in. We ate there Thursday night and it is now Sunday and I cant really remember what I had for a main meal. I do remember the cheesecake two of use shared for desert - it was billed as a NY Cheesecake but I would say it came from a Betty Crocker recipe book from the 60's! Our waiter was great though and the view is nice!Special Features:
- OutstandingJimmyDined on 8/13/2014Best crab cake I had all trip, excellent shrimp scampi and halibut. Terrific service. And of course a fantastic and romantic view. Always worth a visit each trip to SF!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 8/12/2014My boyfriend and I dined here for the first time on a Tuesday night. The menu honestly did not blow us away, so we ordered a variety of appetizers/sides to create a meal. The first item, calamari was great, as was the complementary bread. We ordered single drinks to start as we dined window-side, watching the sun set. All of this gave us the impression that dinner would be great. Unfortunately, things were not as wonderful as anticipated. Food took about an hour to arrive! While we waited empty-handed and had finished our drinks, the bottle of wine we ordered at the beginning did not arrive until maybe 10 minutes before the food. We did get comp. wine for the long wait, but overall, the experience left a meh taste in our mouths.Special Features:
- Great View but Lackingsunnyside1VIPDined on 8/12/2014Great View for out of town guests. Tourists love this restaurant. However, the seafood & tuna was old and the service was really lacking.Special Features:
- Everything was great!MaryDined on 8/12/2014The food, service and ambiance were great! The scenic view is fantastic!Special Features:
- Very beautiful viewsSusieQDined on 8/11/2014Love this place, especially for happy hour. Wish there were more vegan options! Yes I know it's seafood but you need more sides and offer more options without dairy or fish. And less salt!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very disappointingKikoDined on 8/9/2014We were celebrating our anniversary and had a reservation at 8:30 PM. We were not seated until 10:00 PM. Many people who did not have reservations were seated ahead of us. Our Anniversary celebration was ruined by the managements very poor customer service. We were not compensated for their extremely poor customer service. We do not recommend this restaurant and will never go to this restaurant again. We will be going to another area restaurant this evening to enjoy the Bat Areas excellent seafood.Special Features:

Turkish uprising and what the world knows about it...
Our ideas in action now in Turkey. Be inspired and support!
(For TEDsters who want to know what is going on in Turkey and might want to support their fellow earthlings who resist against an authoritarian, oppressive government who perceives everthing that by itself supports a healthy and peaceful planet as sources that should be transformed into money and a government that wants to oppress or make vanish everything, every culture, every worldview, every group that are not like them...)
What is defended here is our common universal values...
What people are standing up for is:
True democracy and human rights, the conservation of nature, the conservation of livable cities, freedom of expression, stopping authoritarianism, minority rights, women's rights, LGBTI rights, animal rights, a free media that is able to show the facts rather than what PM wants, a government that supports human rights instead of pure corporate interests, a government that doesn't lie to the people...
Some links (You can find wide coverage in the international mainstream media. So I am sharing some fieldwork here.):
A little VICE doc:
A student explaining why people are fighting:
A good video that shows the first week of the resistance and how it's progressed:
A video showing police violence and people's reactions:
A video from the fifth night. Marching peacefully is enough to get teargas canisters onto your head.
(You can follow people's resistance in Twitter searching these hashtags: #occupyturkey #occupygezi #wearegezi)
(There are 4 deaths and many people are seriously injured because of extreme police violence.Some of them went blind,some of them hospitalized with fractured craniums.Police still continues to shoot teargas canisters directly to the protesters and to beat them while taking them into custody.)

Jun 28 2013: A Digital Collection of Gezi Park Articles
Blade RunnerJun 30 2013: And why would it NOT be correct to state that the data you put up is far from a balanced/complete picture of the actuality and your data is just as selective (like you claim the Govts is) and just a blatant case of you, like the Govt pushing YOUR agenda.
Btw what exactly is YOUR agenda?
Jul 1 2013: " the data you put up is far from a balanced/complete picture of the actuality"
Can you show me your evidence that "my data" is far from a balanced/complete picture of the actuality? And if so, why would I share BBC's Q&A or the readlists with tons of links from different sources? Do you think that VICE has some secret interests in reflecting the incidents pro uprisers? (The first link I have shared in the introduction...)
Do you think that exposing the human rights violations of the govt. that are barely covered by the media harms forming a satisfying picture of the reality? Would you prefer not to see those?
Are you aware that what I share here is mostly content that the majority of the Turkish public can't reach because of the corruption of and the pressure on the media? Don't you think that it is very important that these things are exposed?
Do you really understand what "the general population doesn't know what's happening and it doesn't even know that it doesn't know" means?
My agenda is being able to live in a democratic environment where people are not oppressed because they are different than the type the PM wants to see, where every piece of nature is not sold...
What exactly is your agenda with Chomsky on your profile pic but with a total anti-chomsky understanding of things?
Blade RunnerJul 1 2013: Suggest there are always other agendas at play besides yours and theirs!
So you think/believe your 'Savior complex' is the salvation of the Turkish people?
Suggest this is exactly the point and UNDERSTANDING of the 'whole', of the 'whole everything' on this planet.......
"The general population doesn't know what's happening and it doesn't even know that it doesn't know"
Like it or not ...............most people are sheeple and their lives are controlled and taken up by the basic needs to survive via food and shelter and in the Western world they have the 'luxury' of consumerism to keep the wheels of capitalism turning.
Further suggest that to Govts/politicians of ALL persuasions the people/sheeple are just a commodity to utilize to keep them in power and they do their darnedest/despicable-st to stay in power ............................do your history.
Suggest that my 'agenda' (if you want to call it that) with the Chomsky avatar line is to generate some thought/ponderings.
Appears to be working............................ :)
Suggest I fully understand that Chomsky 'line' but as for believing in any Chomsky ideology as being the silver bullet is another camp fire discussion, another time, under Orion.
And you perchance are trying to stir peoples 'consciences' because you see yourself as a do good er , have a savior complex or just for the ego glory?
The evolution of this planet has been a continuum of conflict and conquest and it ain't going to change anytime soon!
Suggest in two generations after your death (unless you have perchance assassinated a President) your existence will have been lost in time.
Suggest you make the most of your time here, because nobody else will do it for you!
Found that the mortgage of real life cures youthful idealism quickly!
Death is not an achievement!
How's that for a pedaling out some one liners.................would Chomsky be proud of me? :)

According to coach Raustand Nzoule, the Tigers' first season reaching the Sac-Joaquin Section playoffs was a good one, even though the team was knocked out in the first round.
"I started with team practices in June — way earlier than usual because we lost many girls from the previous season to graduation," Nzoule said. "I did not want to see the Tigers at the bottom of the league standings."
In 2013, Patterson (7-5) finished third in the Western Athletic Conference, with four of the Tigers' losses to two league teams that qualified for the playoffs: Los Banos High and Central Catholic High of Modesto.
"I was able to get the new players going as they learned the fundamentals," Nzoule said. "They were excited and dedicated. They played for each other. The motivation was high, as many of them were very competitive."
Patterson made its first appearance in the SJS Division II playoffs on Nov. 4.
But the season ended for the Tigers, as host Valley High of Sacramento won five of six singles matches and one of three doubles matches for a 6-3 victory.
Patterson's Avery Chairez won, 6-1, 6-4, in singles play, and teammates Ariana Rico and Ngoc Nguyen followed with a three-set win 6-4, 1-6, 6-4 in doubles action.
The Tigers' doubles team, Catarina Borges and Wendy Zuleta, won in two sets, 6-4, 6-4.
"Catarina, Wendy, Ngoc and Ariana were the ones to go around and motivate and cheer the singles players, as they struggled," Nzoule said. "These same girls also showed poise on the court, as they dominated their respective matches."
Despite the loss, Nzoule said he looked forward to seeing what the future held for the program.
"This season is the result of hard work and dedication," Nzoule said. "I'm looking forward to coaching any girl who is returning next year, as they were all amazing this season."
Patterson's contingent recently earned all-league recognition from the conference, and had four players named to the all-WAC first team, including sisters Kelby and Kendal Norfleet for singles play and Ngoc and Rico for doubles competition.
Nzoule said it's the constant challenge along with the progression of young talent, which keeps him going.
"The girls tennis program is an ongoing work in progress. It is very difficult to remain steady," Nzoule said. "(Next season), I will have to go back to the drawing board, as I usually get new girls, most of them tennis neophytes, and basically teach them everything."

Vitamin-Inspired and Pure White: New Colors for Staub
We know that a lot of you are big fans of enameled cast iron; who doesn't love their Dutch oven? We use ours every day, and while it's perfectly functional, we use it from oven-to-table so often that we'd love to add a complementing piece in another color. So here's some eye candy for you today from Staub, who updated their line with some new "vitamin-inspired" colors.
We're not exactly sure what in inspiring about vitamins (in our experience they are mostly brownish-green); we suppose these pieces are actually inspired by the fruit and vegetables that give us our vitamins. Regardless of the vitamins and all that, they're very pretty. We can definitely get behind that. The Pure White colorway is an elegant one, too; we like the current trend in pure black and white cookware.

• 2 Round Cocotte in White

Oy, there's a reason I never look at Staub. I'm having teapot envy.
Holy crap, is that teapot cast iron? Does the whole top lift up or how does it open? I absolutely love it.
The chrome handles separate, and then you can just lift the top off. Very clever design!

The techniques utilized, as well as the design itself, create a self-sustaining, very low-maintenance garden. Produce from the garden will be shared by the Pride Center community. The Pride Center plans to use the garden for volunteer workshops, and make it available as a demonstration site for academic study. The team also plans to install educational signs to inform visitors about Permaculture.

Nectarine > Peach
The necatarine crop has been awesome this year
As for the 3 for 1 Mangoes at Ralphs...
Great Flavor and very sweet-the one drawback is they have a large meaning there is not as much flesh as you would think.
Strawberries- the tough part about strawberries is theyre really hit or miss....a good sweet batch can be heavenly but you only get that in roughly 1 of every 4 or 5 times. The little seeds can be a pain as well.
Will echo some other thoughts in that Peach Pie is way better then apple pie.
And to show how large my fruit bearing penis is compared to others...
If you can find Santa Claus Melons less then 50cents a pound by all means try it.
Better yet, the Camouflage melon is a sweet white fleshed variety that is uber juicy. Once you try it, you wont forget it. Amazingly good.

i get my strawberries from my friend's farm so they're huge, all red and really sweet.

What do we do?
All Happy Science activities are for the sake of human happiness. Happy Science is active in:
- Spreading the Truth and conducting prayers for the sake of happiness to individuals, society and the world.
- Educating individuals and nurturing them to awaken to their true-selves and purpose in life.
- Contributing to the improvement of society through charities, campaigns, special events and providing guidance in all major areas of life such as education, politics, working life and the media to encourage decisions that are in accordance with goodness, wisdom and Truth.
Educating individuals to achieve true happiness
Happy Science emphasizes the importance of soul training, which is a key factor for achieving true happiness. Providing various learning environments and publishing many books of Truth, Happy Science encourages individuals to study the Laws of the Great Universe and to attain true wisdom through putting this teaching into daily practice.
- International retreats are special seminars usually held twice a year at a Happy Science Shoja in Japan. These seminars are great opportunities to meet people from all over the world who walk on the same spiritual path, to reflect on our mind in the light of the Truth, to re-energize ourselves in a heavenly environment and to gain wisdom that help us to discover true happiness. International retreats usually last 4 days and 3 nights, providing full board catering to all participants.
- Local seminars are also held at Happy Science temples, local centers, Missionary houses or public venues. These seminars provide an opportunity to grasp the essence of the Truth and to meet similar "Truth seekers" in your area.
- Spiritual growth programs for members are available at all Happy Science local temples. As the teachings of Master Okawa are infinitely extensive and deep, a special training program has been introduced to help Happy Science members study the Truth systematically. The whole program is divided into 4 levels: Basic, Intermediate, Advanced and High Proficiency.
- Watching video lectures – available at all temples, local centers and Missionary houses. Recorded imagery of Master speaking actually has as much spiritual impact as live lectures do. It is also a convenient way to study the Truth as veiwings can be accomodated to everyone's busy schedule.
- Meditation sessions are held generally on a weekly basis. Please contact your local temple or center to obtain the latest schedules.
- Ritual Prayers (Kigans) are sacred ceremonial prayers performed at temples. They are special opportunities to relay your pledge to do your best directly to the heavens and ask for their light and guidance in achieving your goals and aspirations. There are many types of Ritual Prayers such as succeeding in life, happiness in the home, or recovering from illness.
- Happy Science Celebrations: Day of Great Enlightenment: Commemoration of the day Master Ryuho Okawa attained Great Enlightenment. March 23rd.
- Birthday Celebration: Celebration of Master Ryuho Okawa's day of birth. July 7th.
- El Cantare Festival: The day of reflection and gratitude for the year. In December.
Happy Science's charity activities
Happy Science is a non-profit organization fully committed to alleviating suffering, poverty, famineand to create a better world. Some of the organizations we have supported include Unicef, Save the Children and the Red Cross. Happy Science provides relief to victims of natural disasters and humanitarian aid to regions ravaged by conflict. We will continue to provide financial and material support where needed in addition to continuing in our work as a religion – the salvation of the soul – which is the greatest social contribution and public work there is.
Supporting students with a bright future:
The Golden Age Scholarship
The Golden Age Scholarship is a funding system created to support students dedicated to building a bright, golden future for the world. This scholarship is given to young students all over the world to help them in their education, spiritual growth and purusit of their dreams. If you are a student and would like to apply to receive an application form/application essay topic, please contact us.
Happy Science's 'Prevention against suicide campaigns'
Happy Science regularly holds campaigns on the streets all across Japan in order to stop more than 30,000 suicides that happen every year. Since 2003, Happy Science has been passing out leaflets and speaking out about spiritual truth to inform people that each life is precious and sacred and that life does not end with death.
Our passion to supporting education and youth welfare
To nurture children of the future, Happy Science is very much involved in the field of education. In 2010, Happy Science established its first junior and senior high school in Nasu called "The Happy Science Academy". A second school in Western Japan is planned to open in 2013 and a Happy Science University in Chiba in 2016. Other Happy Science educational establishments, which cater to various age groups, are: a preparatory school called "Success No.1", "Angel Plan V" for tots, and "Senior Plan21" for our senior members. Also, Happy Science has founded an Anti-Bullying Campaign to tackle the widespread problem of bullying in schools. It conducts seminars to educate the public about the seriousness of the widespread problem of bullying in schools, invite experts and present solutions as well as provide consultation. Happy Science also runs a special school called "Never Mind". It is a free school for students who find it emotionally difficult to go to an ordinary public school. "Never Mind" is a school where the individuality, values and independence of the child are respected.
A deep appreciation for culture and the arts
A replica of the Harati Mata temple that was a favorite at the Nepal Pavilion in 2005's Aichi World Expo held in Japan is preserved next to Happy Science Utsunomiya Shoshinkan. It is affectionately known by the locals as the Nepal-Buddha Pavilion and is open for everyone to visit. The Buddhist spirit forms the core of Happy Science. Therefore, culturally preserving Buddhism, which has long been the heart and soul of many people, is also one of the many missions Happy Science has.
The ultimate activity – The mission to spread Truth to the world
The fundamental key for people to awaken to true happiness and be able to experience that happiness each day is in the teachings and in its practice. That is why Happy Science places the greatest importance on the spreading of these precious teachings to all people in every country of the world.
Missionary work, or 'dendo' in Japanese, is a grand mission and noble activity which in itself brings happiness to the individual undertaking such a task.
Missionary work is to reveal the sacred path that people should journey, to guide them to Truth, and provide generous opportunities for everyone to awaken to the real meaning and purpose of life. Many people have already awakened to their mission to become 'generators of happiness' and are living self-less lives that will become beacons of light for many generations to come. They have already decided to pursue the path to become an angel of light (bodhisattva); they have already dedicated their life to creating Utopia on earth.
Missionary work is the most precious way to practice love that gives. It is simple, fun, and infinitely rewarding. Through handing out monthly magazines, donating books and volunteering at your local events, even one person can become a great force of happiness for many. Join in our activities today!

Escape from SF: Bicycling to Montara Lighthouse Hostel
This past weekend, we escaped on bicycles for a 20-mile bike ride to the beautiful seaside town of Montara. While not much is there, and you're likely to miss it unless you're looking for it, it is home to the Point Montara Lighthouse Hostel. Steeped in the history of the area and the beauty of the coast, this little gem is a great way to escape the city and soak in the sea.
Make your reservations in advance, as the hostel fills up quickly. If you're looking for a quieter getaway, book one of the four private rooms that over look the ocean.
Enjoy the slideshow and check the link here to see the route we followed down on bikes.

The popular 14" diameter Freestyle II Djembe also comes with a FREE matching carrying bag! Abstract Red and Black Mamba finishes.
Toca's original Freestyle Mechanical Tuned Djembes set the bar for great sound from an affordable lug-tuned drum with a natural skin head. Freestyle II Mechanical Tuned Djembes now take the next step in performance with the installation of all-weather synthetic heads. The popular 14" diameter Freestyle II Djembe also comes with a FREE matching carrying bag and is available in Abstract Red or Black Mamba finish!
The new heads eliminate the stretching, drying, and loss of pitch that can occur with natural skin heads due to changes in weather conditions. Thus they offer greater consistency in sound. Synthetic heads can also be tensioned over a wider range, making them able to produce higher, crisper slaps and deeper bass tones.
Freestyle II Mechanical Djembes have also been improved with an extended collar hoop that allows for easier tuning over a greater range. Rubber tips on the tension bolts protect the player's clothing. Meanwhile, the drums' lightweight and durable synthetic shells offer outstanding resonance and projection.

I went and chopped 13inches off my hair and didn't tell DH He walked in and started whistling telling me I was a 'hot mama' Such a dork.
I went and chopped 13inches off my hair and didn't tell DH He walked in and started whistling telling me I was a 'hot mama' Such a dork.
Thanks for sharing so honestly, everyone. It helps to know a variety of experiences.
Totally not the same thing, but when I worked directly with the kids, I'd see them over several years and some kids I was very much bonded with. Not as a parent/child relationship, but there is something about teaching life skills to a child that leads to a very close care provider bond. Particularly if you don't have your own children, I think. I've cried more than a few times saying goodbye at the end of a year.
When I get a new crop of kids, I don't have a relationship with any of them at first, but it does grow over time. I remember when DH and I were first TTC I was on a field trip with my class. I had a little guy sitting on my lap and I remember thinking that I knew that I could bond with a child because I felt so connected to my little guys, even when at first they are just some new kid and part of my job. That's always come over time for me.
I did bond very quickly with Nero but because DH chose Gwennie (and I had expressed repeatedly that it wasn't good time for a new puppy) she was DH's dog and I tried NOT to bond with her. Couldn't help it -I adore her now. I think that instant bond is rare in a case of not flesh and blood, but I have no doubt bonding will happen with an adopted baby.

Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
The final thing that stood in the way of immediate affection for B: I was floored by just how huge his testicles were when he first came out. They were swollen and red and looked like they belonged on a gorilla. DH later admits he thought to himself, "that's my boy!" But yeah, they were initially shockingly distracting.
I was instantly gaga about Lulu, so much so that I skipped work the afternoon we brought her home and missed my offramp on the way home from paying attention to her. I didn't initially bond with Cayo because he was more DH's doggie and Lulu was mine. The funny thing is that Cayo is more attached to me now (which leads me to have a soft spot for him) and Lulu is DH's little shadow around the house.
At first, I was wondering if you were talking about an interstate or something, Christina...LOL
I am really lucky that I didn't get ppd with either of my boys. I was always scared I would get depressed easily since my mother has so many emotional issues, but I lucked out there. When Cash was born and he was so much smaller than Travis (6lb 7oz vs. 7lb 10oz), I felt really guilty like it was my fault even though I ate better with Cash (I didn't take the prenatals for as long with him).
Oh my Molly is a cute puppy, love her little face. Cosmo's face is pretty funny. Soon she won't know what she did before her little sister came along.
I've noticed with my dogs and cats, that the girls are feisty and independent, and the boys are loving and snugglers. My big male cat was this fat lump that wanted nothing more than to sit in your lap and purr. My female Dachshund was "security" she alerted me of any potential threat. Now I know that I will have the boy/girl combo, no same sex pets for me.
We're going up to South Carolina for Thanksgiving, looking forward to cooler weather. It's really humid here this week.
When G was born, I felt overwhelming love for him. I was in complete awe that he was mine, and I could take him home. Since I was a little girl, I have loved babies, and now I had my own, my very own. The first 8 weeks I did feel completely and totally exhausted, I wasn't prepared for the sleep deprivation.
Shelley-mom to DS, 6
My honest feeling on the whole mothering thing is that some women are naturals and some women are not, and I definitely fit into the latter category. After the initial relief when Mira was born and declared healthy, my next thought was WTF??? She was born with A LOT of hair. On her forehead. I was like 'Great, if there weren't so many witnesses, including DH, I would've denied that the little monkey came out of me'. For the most part, parenting was and remains a hard slog. It is not intuitive for me, I'm not a natural, and SO much of it seems like such crapshoot that I'm often tempted to just throw my hands up in the air. I love my daughter dearly, but man, life was a lot easier (but a lot less interesting) before her. I worry a lot about what the future holds for her.
To tell you the truth, I feel like I am more of a dog person than a kid person. My dogs are most definitely not my kids, no matter how important they are to me, but I really get them. I can work with them to the point where living with them becomes a breeze. I have the kind of control over them that I will never have over my kid, and I really like that. Less overall unpredictability.
Maybe I really am that big of a control freak (which is not to be confused with neat freak; my office looks like a shredder exploded in here).
It's crazy how much children change your life. My husband and I were just chatting about it last night. The day before Travis had had a rough day with his temper and just 3 year old behaviour. Last night he was back to being a cuddly little love bug as he played with Lego with us and talked about his rocket ships and trucks. I turned to dh and said, "it's crazy how much I love that boy" and he said (with a sigh), "yeah, I know." They sure do tire you out but it's so worth it.
Yes, I saw the Hunger Games trailer! I got chills! I didn't have high hopes for it, I think Lionsgate puts out some crap movies, but this really looks good. I keep meaning to re-read the book. It's been a while.
I know a lot of people don't like the casting but I honestly love it.
In regards to the number of children discussion, there is no doubt in my mind that I'd end up in the looney bin if I had another child. I've already got one foot in the door!
You guys. Help.
As you all know things have been rough with Savana lately. Dbf and I have been discussing the possibility of putting her in public school here and picking up the homeschooling when we move to Hawaii. I've been very adamant about homeschooling but there has been this tiny voice in the back of my head wondering if some of her behaviors might improve from being in a whole new environment. Even though I put my whole heart into educating her I am afraid she might be bored. She is very, very bossy and controlling here and all the children are younger than her except for one boy who only comes 2 times a week and she does absolutely wonderful with him. So I've been putting the idea out there for her and today she said she wants to go to school.
I'm freaking out. I want to homeschool my children more than anything but I can't make this about me. And if there is even a chance that going to school might make her happier I have to try it.
Hold me.
I'm a mess. (Not showing her that though of course)
I don't think public schools are that terrible but I'm not as educated about it as some of the others here. Maybe they can give you some better advice, but I don't think sending her to school would be the end of the world. You would just supplement what you think is missing from/wrong with her education and I know you'd do a great job at that.
I know it won't be the end of the world. It just wasn't in the plans at all and my head is sort of reeling from the possibility of nothing going as I planned. I love our bubble.
IDK if this is possible for you to maybe put her in some kind of day camp style setting for a while as a test, I know the Y does stuff like that (not sure if it's only in the summer or if they offer stuff like that during the year) to see how she does in that kind of setting before you all decide if school is right for her? She might like the idea of it now but realize it's not right when she sees what it's all about.
We go through spots where each of the dogs prefer one or the other of us. They're really both our mutual dogs but I do suspect N prefers DH and Gwennie prefers me.
Who knows, she may go one day and hate it and be ready to stay home!
I can understand that she might feel frustrated as the oldest and as she gets older she will need to separate herself more from the daycare. You will find a solution, whether that is at home or in a school setting.
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
I feel like I failed.
I am just speaking from my gut here, because I'm sure you've thought a lot more about the homeschooling decision than me... The idea of putting Savana in public school appeals to the part of me that says try anything once so you can make informed decisions from firsthand experience, and believes that it's important to expose children to a recurring group social environment as a way to build cooperative skills. I definitely see how it can be scary, and Savana may not like it at all, but you could always begin to homeschool her again if it doesn't feel right.
Maybe you could enroll her in school and let her attend, presenting it to her as an trial period to see if she'd like it. In a way, you'd be dipping your toe in the water and it'd be a no-pressure situation for her?

- " I highly recommend this hostel, it's one if not the best I stayed in. Superb staff, they really live for what they're doing. Better service than in some hotels. Awesome atmosphere, especially liked the bar downstairs. But it's shut off from the hostel area, so there's no need to worry about outsiders inside or too much noise at night. Especially loved the roof terraces and all the free food available. Will definitely come back the next time I'm in Milan. Thanks for making this weekend awesome! "

I wish we were able to stay more than one night. The location is great, there was a local mojito bar around the corner that was really cool. If I make my way back to Milan I will definitely stay there again. "

Oudin Out, Sharapova In
Published February 18, 2010 12:00
MEMPHIS, TN, USA - The collision course everyone was following became no more at the Cellular South Cup on Thursday, as Melanie Oudin fell in the quarterfinals. Maria Sharapova moved into the final four, however.
Oudin, the No.2 seed at the International event, was the first to take the court but it didn't end well, as she was ousted comprehensively, 61 63, by Sofia Arvidsson. But don't let Arvidsson's qualifier status deceive - the Swede won this very title four years ago, her lone Sony Ericsson WTA Tour title to date.
"Sofia played a really good match. I can see how she won this tournament before. She's a really good player," Oudin blogged. "I tried everything I could but I wasn't playing my best tennis today. She played well, so that's how I ended up losing. I've been playing a lot of matches lately but that's not an excuse for me - I actually play better when I play a lot, I like playing a lot."
Oudin is blogging from Memphis this week - read it right here!
Sharapova, seeded No.1 and a heavy favorite for the title upon Oudin's departure, was tested late in the match but still managed to close out No.8 seed Elena Baltacha of Great Britain in straight sets, 62 75.
Check out some of Sharapova's best glamour shots in the gallery!
Also advancing to the semifinals were No.5 seed Petra Kvitova, who saved a match point down 5-4 in the third set to beat No.3 seed Kaia Kanepi, 16 63 76(0); and Anne Keothavong, who reached her second straight semifinal in Memphis with a 64 63 win over Karolina Sprem.

A Form of Happiness: Dopamine
We have all felt the rush and experienced the feeling of happiness, and Speculative Design artist Jessica Charlesworth, along with her husband, Product Designer Tim Parsons, has made it tangible. The couples' A Form of Happiness project has masterfully resulted in their creation of a wood and magnetic representation of the neurotransmitter responsible for releasing the chemical that fuels our desire for happiness. The effects of the organic chemical, dopamine, are likened to the euphoric feeling and pleasurable physical reaction to things such as searching through sale racks while shopping, enjoying a delicious meal, or the pleasure received from engaging in sexual activity.
A Form of Happiness, displayed as the physical model of dopamine, is part of a kit that allows user to assemble the wooden pieces into the chemical compound strand. Each part is held together by embedded neodymium magnets. The kit includes examples of the various roles that the physical piece could take on and provides a more vivid display of what occurs during moments when dopamine is released. Charlesworth and Parsons pose the question, 'What makes you happy?' and while the answers will vary by person, as their model and kit prove, the feeling is the same for everyone. Happiness is a simple chemical reaction we seek it throughout life; a chemical bit of magic.

25pC/g, 400°C max • 150g wt • 2 pole connector
Download Datasheet - A301 Datasheet
High output industrial grade vibration transducers. /HT 25pC/g version is rated to 400°C. Signal output is floating, via 2 pole hermetic connector, thus minimising common mode interference.
Ingress of contaminants into the transducer and/or connector will degrade data.
Transducers and cables can be supplied proof pressure tested to 80bar, individually and as assemblies. Pressure tested assemblies may be disconnected for ease of installation, subsequently replacing the sealing ring between the connector shells.
The /HT is proof to 420°C exposure and is therefore suitable for a gas turbine bearing vibration monitoring, with the proviso that a low pass inline filter may be needed to minimise blade passing frequency modulation, which gives rise to spurious, phantom low frequency signal generation. High temperature operation of the /HT may be subject to degradation due to increased pyro-electric charge generation, together with a significant fall in insulation resistance. Instrumentation bandwidth should be constrained to the minimum needed for measurement integrity. A/301's comprise isolated KONIC sensing element housed in all welded hermetic case. Internal electrical connections are welded. Pressure and thermal cycle tests are recommended for hostile environment applications.

Community partnerships are critical for creating the type of living-learning community where students can engage in both the theory and practice of sustainability. The Sustainability Semester continues to cultivate existing and new partnerships with organizations and individuals in our region. The North Country is home to many community members with specialized knowledge and skills that they enthusiastically share with our students.
Opportunities to partner with the Sustainability Semester take the form of fieldtrips, workshops, seminars, community based learning opportunities and summer internships. Explanations of what we mean by each of these partnership possibilities follows.
Field Trips: The Community Partner hosts and guides a visit to a site of interest, e.g a tour of the partner's farm, homestead, business, organization etc. This may consist of "show & tell" and demonstration or may incorporate some activity, e.g. a farm visit during which students help with a specific task. Duration of a Field Trip may range from approximately 1-3 hours.
Teaching a Workshop: The Community Partner teaches a skill or craft, through experiential education, e.g. cheese making, goat milk soap making, chicken slaughtering, writing songs of social protest, green building skills. The workshop may take place on or off the Sustainability Semester campus. The Partner will be compensated for his/her time, workshop materials and personal equipment/tool use. Typical duration of a Workshop may be several hours to most of a day.
Leading a Seminar: The Community Partner teaches a class on a particular topic, e.g. solar energy, food security, food safety, town planning. This is similar to a Workshop but may be somewhat less "hands on" depending on the topic and typically will be of shorter duration, generally an hour or hour and a half and will generally take place on the Sustainability Semester campus.
Community Based Learning Opportunity (CBL): During the semester, the Community Partner would host a student three hours each week during which time the student will deepen their understanding of some aspect of sustainability through their interaction and work for the community partner. CBL partnerships are meant to complement the theories and ideas students are learning in the classroom.
Summer Internship Mentor: The Community Partner mentors and hosts a student summer intern for 8-10 weeks to work on a sustainability focused project at their organization or business. All students in the sustainability semester have the opportunity to apply for paid summer internships. All interested partners must complete a Sustainability Semester Internship Project Description Form.
Community members interested in sharing their interests and expertise with St. Lawrence's Sustainability Semester are encouraged to contact Director Cathy Shrady: email@example.com, 315-229-5015.
